Any express mention of the payment of Additional Interest in any provision hereof shall not be construed as excluding Additional Interest in those provisions hereof where such express mention is not made.

Section 1.03         Acts of Holders.

(a)            Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided or permitted by this Indenture to be made, given or taken by Holders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Holders in person or by an agent duly appointed in writing; and, except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered to the Trustee and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Company. Such instrument or instruments (and the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the “Act” of the Holders signing such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent, or of the holding by any Person of Notes, shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and conclusive in favor of the Trustee and the Company, if made in the manner provided in this Section 1.03.

(b)           The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or writing may be proved by the affidavit of a witness of such execution or by a certificate of a notary public or other officer authorized by law to take acknowledgments of deeds, certifying that the individual signing such instrument or writing acknowledged to him 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. The fact and date of the execution of any such instrument or writing, or the authority of the Person executing the same, may also be proved in any other manner which the Trustee deems sufficient.

(c)           The amount of Notes held by any Person executing any such instrument or writings as the Holder thereof, the numbers of such Notes and the date of his holding the same may be proved by the production of such Notes or by a certificate executed, as depositary, by any trust company, bank, banker or member of a national securities exchange (wherever situated), if such certificate is in form satisfactory to the Trustee, showing that at the date therein mentioned such Person had on deposit with such depositary, or exhibited to it, the Notes therein described; or such facts may be proved by the certificate or affidavit of the Person executing such instrument or writing as the Holder thereof, if such certificate or affidavit is in form satisfactory to the Trustee. The Trustee and the Company may assume that such ownership of any Notes continues until (1) another certificate bearing a later date issued in respect of the same Notes is produced or (2) such Notes are produced by some other Person or (3) such Notes are no longer Outstanding.

(d)           The fact and date of execution of any such instrument or writing and the amount and number of Notes held by the Person so executing such instrument or writing may also be proved in any other manner that the Trustee deems sufficient. The Trustee may in any instance require further proof with respect to any of the matters referred to in this Section 1.03.

(e)           The principal amount (except as otherwise contemplated in clause (ii) of the definition of “Outstanding”), serial numbers of Notes held by any Person and the date of holding the same shall be proved by the Register.

(f)            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.

(g)            The Company may but shall not be obligated to set a record date for purposes of determining the identity of Holders of any Outstanding Notes entitled to vote or consent to any action by vote or consent authorized or permitted by Sections 6.02, 6.04, 6.05, 6.06, 8.02 or 11.10. Such record date shall be not less than 10 nor more than 60 days prior to the first solicitation of such consent or the date of the most recent list of Holders of such Notes furnished to the Trustee pursuant to Section 5.13 prior to such solicitation.

(h)            If the Company solicits from Holders any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, election, waiver or other Act, the Company may, at its option, fix in advance a record date for the determination of Holders entitled to give such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, election, waiver or other Act, but the Company shall have no obligation to do so. If such a record date is fixed, such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, election, waiver or other Act may be given before or after such record date, but only the Holders of record at the Close of Business on the record date shall be deemed to be Holders for the purposes of determining whether Holders of the requisite proportion of the Outstanding Notes have authorized or agreed or consented to such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, election, waiver or other Act, and for that purpose the Outstanding Notes shall be computed as of the record date; provided that no such authorization, agreement or consent by the Holders on such record date shall be deemed effective unless it shall become effective pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture not later than six months after the record date.

ARTICLE 2
THE NOTES

Section 2.01         Title and Terms; Payments.

The aggregate principal amount of Notes that may be authenticated and delivered under this Indenture is $3,391,961 (the “Initial Notes”), except for Notes authenticated and delivered upon registration or transfer of, or in exchange for other Notes pursuant to Sections 2.05, 2.06, 2.08, 2.09, 2.11, 2.15, 3.07 or 4.02(d).

The Notes shall be known and designated as “Senior Secured Convertible Exchange Notes due 2025” of the Company. The Company shall repay to Holders the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Notes in consecutive quarterly installments equal to $169,598 (each such payment, a “Mandatory Redemption”) on January 1, April 1, July 1 and October 1, commencing with October 1, 2024 (each, a “Mandatory Redemption Date”), until the earlier of the Maturity Date or the Notes no longer being Outstanding because earlier repaid, purchased or converted in accordance with this Indenture. The Outstanding principal amount of the Notes shall be payable on the Maturity Date.

In connection with any Mandatory Redemption, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee at least 15 Business Days prior to the applicable Mandatory Redemption Date (or such shorter period as shall be satisfactory to the Trustee) a notice of Mandatory Redemption and an Officer’s Certificate requesting the Trustee to deliver such notice to the Holders. Upon receipt of such Officer’s Certificate and notice of Mandatory Redemption, the Trustee shall deliver such notice of Mandatory Redemption to Holders of the Notes at least ten (10) Business Days before the Mandatory Redemption Date. Such notice shall be prepared by the Company and shall state (a) the Mandatory Redemption Date; (b) the aggregate principal amount of Notes to be mandatorily redeemed; (c) that, on Mandatory Redemption Date, the principal called for Mandatory Redemption will become due and payable; (d) that the Notes must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect the principal amount due to such Holder in connection with the Mandatory Redemption; (e) the place or places where such Notes are to be surrendered to the Paying Agent in connection with the Mandatory Redemption; (f) upon surrender of the Notes and consummation of the Mandatory Redemption, the aggregate principal amount of the Notes that will remain outstanding; and (g) that, upon surrender of a Holder’s Note in connection with such Mandatory Redemption, a new Note in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion thereof shall be issued to such Holder. Any notice of Mandatory Redemption, if delivered in the manner herein provided, shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether or not the Holder receives such notice. In any case, failure to give such notice of Mandatory Redemption by mail or in accordance with the Applicable Procedures or any defect in any such notice to the Holder of any Note designated for redemption as a whole or in part shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other Note.

Regardless of whether the notice described in the preceding paragraph has been sent, the amount of the Notes subject to such Mandatory Redemption shall become due and payable at office of the Paying Agent on the Mandatory Redemption Date. On presentation and surrender of the Notes at the office of the Paying Agent, the Notes shall be paid and redeemed by the Company. Prior to the open of business on any Mandatory Redemption Date the Company shall deposit with the Trustee (or other Paying Agent appointed by the Company) or, if the Company or a subsidiary of the Company is acting as the Paying Agent, shall segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 5.03(b), an amount of cash (in immediately available funds if deposited within three (3) Business Days prior to the Mandatory Redemption Date) sufficient to pay the amount of principal due on the Mandatory Redemption Date, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding the Mandatory Redemption Date. Subject to receipt of funds by the Paying Agent, payment for the Notes to be redeemed shall be made on the Mandatory Redemption Date for such Notes.

In connection with a Mandatory Redemption, in the case of a Global Note, the Notes or portions thereof to be redeemed (in principal amounts of $1.00 or multiples thereof) shall be selected according to the applicable procedures of the Depositary, or, in the case of Physical Notes, the Notes to be redeemed (in principal amounts of at least $1.00 or $1.00 multiples in excess thereof) shall, upon written request of the Company, be selected by the Trustee by lot or by any other method the Trustee in its sole discretion deems fair and appropriate. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the percentage of aggregate principal amount of the Notes Outstanding to be redeemed in connection with such Mandatory Redemption. In the case of Physical Notes, the Trustee shall promptly notify the Company in writing of the Notes or portions of the Notes to be called for such Mandatory Redemption. If any Note selected for partial Mandatory Redemption is submitted for conversion after such selection, the portion of the Note submitted for conversion shall be deemed (so far as may be possible) to be the portion selected for such Mandatory Redemption (and the amount due in connection with such Mandatory Redemption will be reduced accordingly), subject, in the case of Notes represented by a Global Note, to the Depositary’s applicable procedures.

The Notes shall initially be delivered on the Initial Issue Date in the form of Global Notes or Physical Notes. The Notes shall only be eligible for delivery in the form of Global Notes following the date that the Notes are eligible for delivery in book-entry form through the Depository Trust Company. If the Notes are initially delivered on the Initial Issue Date in the form of Physical Notes, none of the Trustee nor any Agent shall have an obligation to cause the Notes to be made eligible for delivery in the form of Global Notes.

The principal amount of Physical Notes shall be payable in U.S. dollars at the Corporate Trust Office and at any other office or agency maintained by the Company for such purpose. Interest and the Make-Whole Amount on Physical Notes will be payable (i) to Holders holding Physical Notes having an aggregate principal amount of $1,000,000 or less of Notes, by check mailed to such Holders at the address set forth in the Register, and (ii) to Holders holding Physical Notes having an aggregate principal amount of more than $1,000,000 of Notes, either by check mailed to such Holders or, upon written application by a Holder to the Company and Paying Agent by (x) with respect to the payment of any interest due on an Interest Payment Date, the immediately preceding Regular Record Date; (y) with respect to any cash conversion consideration, the relevant Conversion Date; and (z) with respect to any other payment, the date that fifteen (15) calendar days immediately before the date such payment is due by wire transfer in immediately available funds to such Holder’s account within the U.S., which application shall remain in effect until the Holder notifies the Paying Agent to the contrary in writing. The Company will pay or cause the Trustee or the Paying Agent to pay principal of Global Notes in U.S. dollars and immediately available funds to the Depositary or its nominee, as the case may be, as the registered Holder of such Global Note, on each Interest Payment Date, the Maturity Date or other payment date, including for the Make-Whole Payment, as the case may be.

Section 2.02         Ranking.

The Notes constitute direct secured, senior obligations of the Company.

Section 2.03         Denominations.

The Notes shall be issuable only in registered form without coupons and in minimum denominations of $1.00 and any integral multiple of $1.00 in excess thereof.

Section 2.04         Execution, Authentication, Delivery and Dating.

The Notes shall be executed on behalf of the Company by one of its Officers.

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

At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the Company may deliver Notes executed by the Company to the Trustee for authentication, together with a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of such Notes. The Company Order shall specify the amount of Notes to be authenticated, and shall further specify the amount of such Notes to be issued as one or more Global Notes or as one or more Physical Notes. The Trustee in accordance with such Company Order shall authenticate and deliver such Notes as provided in this Indenture and not otherwise.

Each Note shall be dated the date of its authentication.

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

Section 2.05         Temporary Notes.

Pending the preparation of Physical Notes, the Company may execute, and upon Company Order the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, temporary Notes that are printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise produced, in any authorized denomination, substantially of the tenor of the Physical Notes in lieu of which they are issued and with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as the Officer executing such Notes may determine, as evidenced by such Officer’s execution of such Notes; provided that any such temporary Notes shall bear legends on the face of such Notes as set forth in the Form of Note attached hereto as Exhibit A and/or Sections 2.07 and 2.11.

After the preparation of Physical Notes, the temporary Notes shall be exchangeable for Physical Notes upon surrender of the temporary Notes at any office or agency of the Company designated pursuant to Section 5.02, without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Notes, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall, upon receipt of a Company Order, authenticate and deliver, in exchange therefor a like principal amount of Physical Notes of authorized denominations. Until so exchanged, the temporary Notes shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as Physical Notes.

Section 2.06         Registration; Registration of Transfer and Exchange.

(a)            The Company shall cause to be kept at the applicable Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee in the continental United States a register (the register maintained in such office and in any other office or agency designated pursuant to Section 5.02 being herein sometimes collectively referred to as the “Register”) in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Company shall provide for the registration and transfer of Notes. The Trustee is hereby appointed registrar (the “Registrar”) for the purpose of registering the transfer and exchange of the 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 5.02 for such purpose, the Company shall execute, and upon receipt of a Company Order the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Notes of any authorized denomination and of a like aggregate principal amount and tenor, each such Note bearing such restrictive legends as may be required by this Indenture (including the Form of Note attached hereto as Exhibit A and Sections 2.07 and 2.11).

At the option of the Holder, and subject to the other provisions of Sections 2.07 and 2.11, Notes may be exchanged for other Notes of any authorized denomination and of a like aggregate principal amount and tenor, upon surrender of the Notes to be exchanged at such office or agency. Whenever any Notes are so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall, upon receipt of a Company Order, authenticate and deliver, the Notes which the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive.

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

Every Note presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange shall (if so required by the Company or the Trustee) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Registrar duly executed, by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing. As a condition to the registration of transfer of any Restricted Notes, the Company or the Trustee may require evidence satisfactory to them as to the compliance with the restrictions set forth in the legend on such Notes.

No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of Notes, but the Company and the Registrar 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 2.11 not involving any transfer.

Neither the Company nor the Registrar shall be required to exchange or register a transfer of any Note in the circumstances set forth in Section 2.11(a)(iv).

(b)            Neither any members of, or participants in, the Depositary (collectively, the “Agent Members”) nor any other Persons on whose behalf any Agent Member may act shall have any rights under this Indenture with respect to any Global Note registered in the name of the Depositary or any nominee thereof, or under any such Global Note, and the Depositary or such nominee, as the case may be, may be treated by the Company, the Trustee, the Agents and any of their respective agents as the absolute owner and Holder of such Global Note for all purposes whatsoever. Neither the Trustee nor any Agent shall have any liability, responsibility or obligation to any Agent Members or any other Person on whose behalf Agent Members may act with respect to (i) any ownership interests in the Global Note, (ii) the accuracy of the records of the Depositary or its nominee, (iii) any notice required hereunder, (iv) any payments under or with respect to the Global Note or (v) actions taken or not taken by any Agent Members.

(c)            Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Company, the Trustee, any Agent or any of their respective agents from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by the Depositary or such nominee, as the case may be, or impair, as between the Depositary, its Agent Members and any other Person on whose behalf an Agent Member may act, the operation of customary practices of such Persons governing the exercise of the rights of a Holder of any Note. The registered Holder of a Global Note may grant proxies and otherwise authorize any Person, including Agent Members and persons that may hold interests through Agent Members, to take any action that a Holder is entitled to take under this Indenture or the Notes.

Section 2.07         Transfer Restrictions.

(a)            Restricted Notes.

(i)            Every Note (and any security issued in exchange therefor or substitution thereof) that bears, or that is required under this Section 2.07 to bear, the Restricted Notes Legend will be deemed to be a “Restricted Note”. Each Restricted Note will be subject to the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Indenture (including in the Restricted Notes Legend) and will bear a restricted CUSIP number for the Notes unless the Company notifies the Trustee in writing that such restrictions on transfer are eliminated or otherwise waived by written consent of the Company (including, without limitation, by the Company’s delivery of the Free Transferability Certificate as provided herein), and each Holder of a Restricted Note, by such Holder’s acceptance of such Restricted Note, will be deemed to be bound by the restrictions on transfer applicable to such Restricted Note.

(ii)            Until the Resale Restriction Termination Date for a Note, such Note, will bear the Restricted Notes Legend unless:

(A)

(1)    such Note, since last held by the Company or an affiliate of the Company (within the meaning of Rule 144), if ever, was transferred (I) to a Person other than (x) the Company, (y) an affiliate of the Company (within the meaning of Rule 144) or (z) a Person that was an affiliate of the Company (within the meaning of Rule 144) within the 90 days immediately preceding such transfer and (II) pursuant to a registration statement that was effective under the Securities Act at the time of such transfer; or

(2)    such Note was transferred (I) to a Person other than (x) the Company or (y) an affiliate of the Company (within the meaning of Rule 144) or a Person that was an affiliate of the Company (within the meaning of Rule 144) within the 90 days immediately preceding such transfer and (II) pursuant to the exemption from registration provided by Rule 144 or any similar provision then in force under the Securities Act; and

(B)

the Company delivers written notice to the Trustee and the Registrar (including, without limitation, by the Company’s delivery of the Free Transferability Certificate as provided herein) stating that the Restricted Notes Legend may be removed from such Note and, with respect to Global Notes, all Applicable Procedures have been complied with.

(iii)          In addition, until the applicable Resale Restriction Termination Date, no transfer of any Restricted Note will be registered by the Registrar unless the transferring Holder delivers to the Trustee a completed notice substantially in the form of the Form of Assignment and Transfer, which contains a certification that the transferee is (A) ProSomnus, Inc. or a subsidiary thereof or (B) such other person that is not an affiliate of the Company (within the meaning of Rule 144) and has not been an affiliate of the Company (within the meaning of Rule 144) within the 90 days immediately preceding the date of such proposed transfer.

(iv)          On and after the applicable Resale Restriction Termination Date, any Note will bear the Restricted Note Legend if at any time the Company determines that, to comply with applicable law, such Note must bear the Restricted Notes Legend and the Company notifies the Trustee in writing.

(b)            Restricted Stock.

(i)            Every share of Common Stock that bears, or that is required under this Section 2.07 to bear, the Restricted Stock Legend will be deemed to be “Restricted Stock”. Each share of Restricted Stock will be subject to the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Indenture (including in the Restricted Stock Legend) and will bear a restricted CUSIP number unless such restrictions on transfer are eliminated or otherwise waived by written consent (including, without limitation, by the Company’s delivery of the Free Transferability Certificate in connection with the Notes as provided herein) of the Company, and each Holder of Restricted Stock, by such Holder’s acceptance of Restricted Stock, will be deemed to be bound by the restrictions on transfer applicable to such Restricted Stock.

(ii)           Until the applicable Resale Restriction Termination Date, any shares of Common Stock issued upon the conversion of a Restricted Note will be issued in book-entry form by or on behalf of the Company and will bear the Restricted Stock Legend unless the Company delivers written notice to the transfer agent for the Common Stock stating that such shares of Common Stock need not bear the Restricted Stock Legend.

(iii)          On and after the applicable Resale Restriction Termination Date, shares of Common Stock will be issued in book-entry form and will bear the Restricted Stock Legend at any time the Company reasonably determines that, to comply with applicable law, such shares of Common Stock must bear the Restricted Stock Legend.

(c)            As used in this Section 2.07, the term “transfer” means any sale, pledge, transfer, loan, hypothecation or other disposition whatsoever of any Restricted Note, any interest therein or any Restricted Stock.

(d)            All Notes, whether Global Notes or Physical Notes, are required to bear the Non-Affiliate Legend at all times, whether before or after the applicable Resale Restriction Termination Date.

Section 2.08         Expiration of Restrictions.

(a)            Physical Notes. Any Physical Note (or any security issued in exchange or substitution therefor) that does not have a Restricted Notes Legend may be exchanged for a new Note or Notes of like tenor and aggregate principal amount that do not bear the Restricted Notes Legend required by Section 2.07. To exercise such right of exchange, the Holder of such Note must surrender such Note in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.11 and deliver any additional documentation required by this Indenture in connection with such exchange.

(b)            Global Notes; Resale Restriction Termination Date.

(i)            If, on a Free Trade Date, or the next succeeding Business Day if such Free Trade Date is not a Business Day, the Notes to which such Free Trade Date is applicable are represented by a Global Note that is a Restricted Note (any such Global Note, a “Restricted Global Note”), as promptly as practicable, the Company will cause an automatic exchange of every beneficial interest in each such Restricted Global Note for beneficial interests in Global Notes that do not bear the Restricted Notes Legend and are not subject to the restrictions set forth in the Restricted Notes Legend and in Section 2.07.

(ii)           To effect such automatic exchange, the Company will (A) deliver to the Depositary an instruction letter for the Depositary’s mandatory exchange process at least 15 days immediately prior to such Free Trade Date (with a copy to the Trustee), (B) deliver to each of the Trustee and the Registrar a duly completed Free Transferability Certificate on or promptly after such Free Trade Date. The date of the Free Transferability Certificate for any Notes will be known as the “Resale Restriction Termination Date” with respect to such Notes and (C) take any other action necessary to comply with the Applicable Procedures. The Trustee shall assume that a Free Trade Date has not occurred with respect to any Notes unless and until it receives a Free Transferability Certificate with respect to such Notes.

(iii)            Immediately upon receipt of the Free Transferability Certificate with respect to any Notes by each of the Trustee and the Registrar:

(A)

the Restricted Notes Legend will be deemed removed from each of the Global Notes specified in such Free Transferability Certificate and the restricted CUSIP number will be deemed removed from each of such Global Notes and deemed replaced with the unrestricted CUSIP number;

(B)

the Restricted Stock Legend will be deemed removed from any shares of Common Stock previously issued upon conversion of such Notes; and

(C)

thereafter, shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion of such Notes will be assigned an unrestricted CUSIP number and will not bear the Restricted Stock Legend (except as provided in Section 2.07(b)(iii)) or any similar legend.

(iv)            [Reserved].

(v)           The Company and the Trustee will comply with the Applicable Procedures and the Company shall otherwise use reasonable efforts to cause each Global Note that is not required to bear the Restricted Notes Legend to be identified by an unrestricted CUSIP number in the facilities of the Depositary by the date the Free Transferability Certificate is delivered to the Trustee and the Registrar or as promptly as possible thereafter.

(vi)          Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Sections 2.08(b)(i), (ii) or (iii), the Company will not be required to deliver a Free Transferability Certificate with respect to any Notes if it reasonably believes that removal of the Restricted Notes Legend or the changes to the CUSIP numbers for such Notes could result in or facilitate transfers of such Notes in violation of applicable law.

Section 2.09         Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Notes.

If any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Trustee, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall, upon receipt of a Company Order, authenticate and deliver, in exchange therefor a new Note of like tenor and principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding. If there shall be delivered to the Company and the Trustee (i) evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Note and (ii) such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them and any agent of either of them harmless, then, in the absence of written notice to the Company or the Trustee that such Note has been acquired by a protected 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 due and payable, the Company in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Note, pay such Note.

Upon the issuance of any new Note under this Section 2.09, the Company may require payment by the Holder of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee) connected therewith.

Every new Note issued pursuant to this Section 2.09 in lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and 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 2.09 are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes.

Section 2.10         Persons Deemed Owners.

Subject to the rights of Holders as of the Regular Record Date to receive payments of interest on the related Interest Payment Date, prior to due presentment of a Note for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee, each Agent, and any of their respective agents may treat the Person in whose name such Note is registered in the Register as the owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payment of the principal of such Note and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Note be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee, the Agents nor any of their respective agents shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

Section 2.11         Transfer and Exchange.

(a)            Provisions Applicable to All Transfers and Exchanges.

(i)            Subject to the restrictions set forth in this Section 2.11, Physical Notes and beneficial interests in Global Notes may be transferred or exchanged from time to time as desired, and each such transfer or exchange will be noted by the Registrar in the Register.

(ii)           All Notes issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange in accordance with this Indenture will 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.

(iii)          No service charge will be imposed on any Holder of a Physical Note or any owner of a beneficial interest in a Global Note for any exchange or registration of transfer, but each of the Company, the Trustee or the Registrar may require such Holder or owner of a beneficial interest to pay a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax, assessment or other governmental charge imposed in connection with such registration of transfer or exchange.

(iv)          Unless the Company and the Trustee specifies otherwise, none of the Company, the Trustee, the Registrar or any co-Registrar will be required to exchange or register a transfer of any Note (A) that has been selected for redemption or (B) that has been surrendered for conversion or except to the extent any portion of such Note is not subject to the foregoing.

(v)           Neither the Trustee nor any Agent will have any obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on transfer imposed under this Indenture or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Note (including any transfers between or among Depositary participants or beneficial owners of interests in any Global Note) other than to require delivery of such certificates and other documentation or evidence as are expressly required by, and to do so if and when expressly required by the terms of, this Indenture, and to examine the same to determine substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements hereof.

(b)            In General; Transfer and Exchange of Beneficial Interests in Global Notes. So long as the Notes are eligible for book-entry settlement with the Depositary, unless otherwise required by law or by Section 2.11(c):

(i)            all Notes will be represented by one or more Global Notes;

(ii)           every transfer and exchange of a beneficial interest in a Global Note will be effected through the Depositary in accordance with the Applicable Procedures and the provisions of this Indenture (including the restrictions on transfer set forth in Section 2.07); and

(i)            Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, each Global Note will be exchanged for Physical Notes if the Depositary delivers notice to the Company that:

(A)

the Depositary is unwilling or unable to continue to act as Depositary; or

(B)

the Depositary is no longer registered as a clearing agency under the Exchange Act or is otherwise no longer permitted under applicable law to continue as Depositary for such Global Note; and, in each case, the Company promptly delivers a copy of such notice to the Trustee and the Company fails to appoint a successor Depositary within 90 days after receiving notice from the Depositary.

In each such case, the Company will, in accordance with Section 2.04, promptly execute, and, upon receipt of a Company Order, the Trustee will, in accordance with Section 2.04, promptly authenticate and deliver, for each beneficial interest in each Global Note so exchanged, an aggregate principal amount of Physical Notes equal to the aggregate principal amount of such beneficial interest, registered in such names and in such authorized denominations as the Depositary specifies, and bearing any legends that such Physical Notes are required to bear under Section 2.07.

(ii)            In addition, if an Event of Default has occurred with regard to the Notes represented by the relevant Global Note and such Event of Default has not been cured or waived, any owner of a beneficial interest in a Global Note may deliver a written request through the Depositary to exchange such beneficial interest for Physical Notes.

In such case, (A) the Registrar will deliver notice of such request to the Company and the Trustee, which notice will identify the aggregate principal amount of such beneficial interest and the CUSIP of the relevant Global Note; (B) the Company will, in accordance with Section 2.04, promptly execute, and, upon receipt of a Company Order, the Trustee, in accordance with Section 2.04, will promptly authenticate and deliver, to such owner, for the beneficial interest so exchanged by such owner, Physical Notes registered in such owner’s name having an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of such beneficial interest as the Depositary specifies, and bearing any legends that such Physical Notes are required to bear under Section 2.07; and (C) the Trustee, in accordance with the Applicable Procedures, will cause the principal amount of such Global Note to be decreased by the aggregate principal amount of the beneficial interest so exchanged. If all of the beneficial interests in a Global Note are so exchanged, such Global Note will be deemed surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation, and the Trustee will cause such Global Note to be cancelled in accordance with the Trustee’s customary procedures and the Applicable Procedures.

(d)            Transfer and Exchange of Physical Notes.

(i)            If Physical Notes are issued, a Holder may transfer a Physical Note by: (A) surrendering such Physical Note for registration of transfer to the Registrar, together with any endorsements or instruments of transfer required by any of the Company, the Trustee or the Registrar; (B) if such Physical Note is a Restricted Note, delivering any documentation required by Section 2.07; and (C) satisfying all other requirements for such transfer set forth in this Section 2.09. Upon the satisfaction of conditions (A), (B) and (C) of the immediately preceding sentence, the Company, in accordance with Section 2.04, will promptly execute and deliver to the Trustee, and the Trustee, upon receipt of a Company Order, will, in accordance with Section 2.04, promptly authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Physical Notes, of any authorized denomination, having like aggregate principal amount and bearing any restrictive legends that such Physical Notes are required to bear under Section 2.07.

(ii)           If Physical Notes are issued, a Holder may exchange a Physical Note for other Physical Notes of any authorized denominations and aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Notes to be exchanged by surrendering such Notes, together with any endorsements or instruments of transfer required by any of the Company, the Trustee or the Registrar, at any office or agency maintained by the Company for such purposes pursuant to Section 5.02. Whenever a Holder surrenders Notes for exchange, the Company, in accordance with Section 2.04, will promptly execute and deliver to the Trustee, and the Trustee, upon receipt of a Company Order and in accordance with Section 2.04, will promptly authenticate and deliver the Notes that such Holder is entitled to receive, bearing registration numbers not contemporaneously outstanding and any legends that such Physical Notes are required to bear under Section 2.07.

(iii)          Subject to Section 2.01 herein, if Physical Notes are issued, a Holder may transfer or exchange a Physical Note for a beneficial interest in a Global Note by (A) surrendering such Physical Note for registration of transfer or exchange, together with any endorsements or instruments of transfer required by any of the Company, the Trustee or the Registrar, at any office or agency maintained by the Company for such purposes pursuant to Section 5.02; (B) if such Physical Note is a Restricted Note, delivering any documentation required by Section 2.07; (C) satisfying all other requirements for such transfer set forth in this Section 2.11 and Section 2.09; (D) providing written instructions to the Trustee to make, or to direct the Registrar to make, an adjustment in its books and records with respect to the applicable Global Note to reflect an increase in the aggregate principal amount of the Notes represented by such Global Note, which instructions will contain information regarding the Depositary account to be credited with such increase and (E) complying with the Applicable Procedures to effect such transfer or exchange. Upon the satisfaction of conditions (A), (B), (C), (D) and (E) the Trustee will cancel such Physical Note in accordance with its customary procedures and cause, in accordance with the Applicable Procedures, the aggregate principal amount of Notes represented by such Global Note to be increased by the aggregate principal amount of such Physical Note, and will credit or cause to be credited the account of the Person specified in the instructions provided by the exchanging Holder in an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of such Physical Note. If no Global Notes are then Outstanding, the Company, in accordance with Section 2.04, will promptly execute and deliver to the Trustee, and the Trustee, upon receipt of a Company Order and in accordance with Section 2.04, will authenticate, a new Global Note in the appropriate aggregate principal amount.

Section 2.12         Purchase of Notes; Cancellation.

The Company may, to the extent permitted by law, and directly or indirectly (regardless of whether such Notes are surrendered to the Company), purchase Notes in the open market or by tender offer at any price or by private agreement. The Company will cause any Notes so purchased (other than Notes purchased pursuant to cash-settled swaps or other cash-settled derivatives) to be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation. For the avoidance of doubt, any such Notes purchased by the Company will be retired and no longer Outstanding hereunder.

The Company shall deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Notes previously authenticated and delivered hereunder that the Company may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and may deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Notes previously authenticated hereunder which the Company has not issued and sold. Upon written request of the Company, the Trustee shall promptly cancel all Notes surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment, purchase, repurchase, conversion or cancellation in accordance with its customary procedures and the Applicable Procedures (if applicable). If the Company shall acquire any of the Notes in any manner whatsoever, such acquisition shall not operate as a redemption or satisfaction of the indebtedness represented by such Notes unless and until the same are delivered to the Trustee for cancellation. The Notes so acquired, while held by or on behalf of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, shall not entitle the Holder thereof to convert the Notes. The Company may not issue new Notes to replace Notes it has paid in full or delivered to the Trustee for cancellation.

The Registrar shall retain, in accordance with its customary procedures, copies of all letters, notices and other written communications received pursuant to this Section 2.10. The Company shall have the right to inspect and make copies of all such letters, notices or other written communications at any reasonable time upon the giving of reasonable written notice to the Registrar.

Section 2.13         CUSIP Numbers.

In issuing the Notes, the Company may use “CUSIP” numbers (if then generally in use); provided that the Trustee shall have no liability for any defect in the CUSIP numbers as they appear on any Notes, notice, or elsewhere and any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice. The Company will promptly notify the Trustee in writing of any change in the “CUSIP” numbers.

Section 2.14         Payment and Computation of Interest.

The Notes will bear interest at a rate of 9% per annum, beginning on October 11, 2023, until the Maturity Date, unless earlier purchased or converted in accordance with the provisions herein. Interest on the Notes will accrue from the most recent date on which interest has been paid or duly provided for or, if no interest has been paid or duly provided for, the date of original issuance of such Notes. Interest will be paid to the Person in whose name a Note is registered at the Close of Business on the Regular Record Date immediately preceding the relevant Interest Payment Date quarterly in arrears on each Interest Payment Date in connection with such quarterly interest payment (or, in the case of an Interest Payment Date in connection with a voluntary conversion, an Optional Redemption, the Holder converting its Notes or having its Notes redeemed, as applicable). Interest on the Notes shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year composed of twelve 30-day months and, for partial months, on the basis of the number of days actually elapsed in a 30-day month. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Notes are converted after the Close of Business on a Regular Record Date but prior to the opening of business on the Interest Payment Date to which that Regular Record Date relates, Holders of such Notes as of the Close of Business on the Regular Record Date will receive, on the corresponding Interest Payment Date, the full amount of interest payable on such Notes on such Interest Payment Date notwithstanding the conversion. Notes that are converted with a Conversion Date occurring after a Regular Record Date bur prior to the next Interest Payment Date, upon surrender for conversion, must be accompanied by funds equal to the amount of interest payable on the Notes so converted on the next succeeding Interest Payment Date.

The Company will pay Additional Interest under certain circumstances as provided in Section 5.08 and 6.03.

Each payment (including any payment made in connection with a redemption) in cash by the Company on account of the principal of and interest on and premium, if any on the Notes, shall be applied to the applicable Notes pro rata according to the outstanding principal amount, unless otherwise expressly provided in the case of partial redemptions. Except as expressly provided herein, all payments (including any payment made in connection with a redemption) to be made by the Company on account of principal, interest, premium, if any, and fees shall be made without set off or counterclaim and all payments made in cash shall be made to the Trustee, in each case on or prior to 10:00 A.M., New York time, on the due date, in U.S. Dollars and in immediately available funds.

Section 2.15         Cash Interest.

Other than in connection with a conversion pursuant to Article 4 below, the Company shall pay all interest due on the Notes in cash on the then outstanding principal amount of the Notes.

ARTICLE 4
CONVERSION

Section 4.01         Right to Convert.

(a)            Subject to and upon compliance with the provisions of this Indenture, each Holder shall have the right, at such Holder’s option, to convert all or any portion of its Notes (if a portion, such that the principal amount of such Notes converted equals $1.00 or an integral multiple of $1.00) at the then-applicable Conversion Rate into the Settlement Amount determined in accordance with Section 4.03(a)(ii) at any time until the Close of Business on the second Business Day immediately preceding the stated Maturity Date; provided that the portion of the principal amount of a Holder’s Notes, plus all accrued interest thereon and any Make-Whole Amount related thereto, to be converted must be such that the principal amount of the Notes not converted equals $1.00 or an integral multiple of $1.00.

(b)         (i)              If the Company elects to issue or distribute, as the case may be, to all or substantially all holders of the Common Stock (x) any rights, options or warrants entitling them to subscribe for or purchase, for a period expiring within 45 calendar days after the declaration date for such issuance, shares of the Common Stock, at a price per share that is less than the average of the Closing Sale Prices of the Common Stock for the 10 consecutive Trading-Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the declaration date for such issuance; or (y) cash, debt securities (or other evidence of indebtedness) or other assets or securities (excluding dividends or distributions in respect of which an adjustment to the Conversion Rate is made pursuant to Section 4.04(a)), which distribution has a per share value exceeding 10% of the Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock as of the Trading Day immediately preceding the declaration date for such distribution, then, in either case, the Company must deliver notice of such distribution, and of the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution, to the Holders (with a copy to the Trustee and Conversion Agent) at least 30 Scheduled Trading Days prior to the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution.

(ii)           If a transaction or event that constitutes a Fundamental Change occurs, to the extent practicable, the Company shall give notice to Holders (with a copy to the Trustee and Conversion Agent) of the anticipated effective date for such transaction or event not more than 50 Scheduled Trading Days nor less than 30 Scheduled Trading Days prior to the anticipated effective date or, if the Company does not have knowledge of such transaction or event at least 30 Scheduled Trading Days prior to the anticipated effective date, within two Business Days of the date upon which the Company receives notice, or otherwise becomes aware of such transaction or event (but in no event later than the actual effective date of such transaction or event). Neither the Trustee nor the Conversion Agent shall have any obligation (x) to determine whether the condition described in this Section 4.01(b)(ii) has occurred or (y) to verify the Company’s determination regarding such condition.

(iii)          If the Company is a party to a consolidation, merger or binding share exchange or a sale, assignment, conveyance, transfer, lease or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Company’s property and assets that does not also constitute a Fundamental Change, in each case pursuant to which the Common Stock would be converted into cash, securities or other property, the Company shall notify Holders (with a copy to the Trustee and Conversion Agent) at least 30 Scheduled Trading Days prior to the anticipated effective date of such transaction. Neither the Trustee nor the Conversion Agent shall have any obligation (x) to determine whether the condition described in this Section 4.01(b)(iii) has occurred or (y) to verify the Company’s determination regarding such condition. For the avoidance of doubt, any references to Common Stock described in this Section 4.01, including those in Section 4.01(c), shall give effect to, among other things, the provisions of Section 4.07.

(i)            The Company shall not effect any conversion of a Note to Common Stock to the extent that, after giving effect to such conversion, ownership of shares of Common Stock owned by the Holder, or such Holder together with such Holder’s Affiliates, and any Persons acting as a group together with such Holder or any of such Holder’s Affiliates (any such person other than Holder, including any group of which Holder is a member, an “Additional Restricted Ownership Person”), would beneficially own in excess of the Restricted Ownership Percentage (as defined below). For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by such Holder and any Additional Restricted Ownership Person shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the sum of the principal amount of Notes plus accrued interest thereon plus any Make-Whole Amount applicable thereto with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which are issuable upon (i) conversion of the remaining, unconverted principal amount of Notes plus accrued interest thereon plus any Make-Whole Amount applicable thereto beneficially owned by such Holder or any Additional Restricted Ownership Person and (ii) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other securities of the Company subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein beneficially owned by such Holder or any Additional Restricted Ownership Person. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section 4.01(c), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.

(ii)            To the extent that the limitation contained in this Section 4.01(c)(i) applies, the determination of whether the Notes are convertible (in relation to other securities owned by such Holder together with any Additional Restricted Ownership Person) and of how much principal amount of Notes (plus accrued interest thereon plus any Make-Whole Amount related thereto) are convertible shall be in the sole discretion of such Holder, and the submission of a Conversion Notice shall be deemed to be such Holder’s determination of whether the applicable Notes may be converted (in relation to other securities owned by such Holder together with any Additional Restricted Ownership Person) and how much principal amount of Notes (plus accrued interest and any Make-Whole related thereto) are convertible, in each case subject to the Restricted Ownership Percentage. To ensure compliance with this restriction, each Holder will be deemed to represent to the Company each time it delivers a Conversion Notice that, to its knowledge, such Conversion Notice has not violated the restrictions set forth in this paragraph and neither the Trustee nor the Conversion Agent shall have any obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination. In addition, a determination as to any group status as contemplated above shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. For purposes of this Section 4.01(c), in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, a Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as stated in the most recent of the following: (i) the Company’s most recent periodic or annual report filed with the Commission, as the case may be, (ii) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (iii) a more recent written notice by the Company or the transfer agent for the Company’s Common Stock setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. Upon the written or oral request of a Holder, the Company shall within two Trading Days confirm orally and in writing to such 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 the Notes, by such Holder or its Additional Restricted Ownership Persons since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported.

(iii)          The “Restricted Ownership Percentage” for each Holder shall initially be 4.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of Notes held by the applicable Holder. A Holder may (i) increase the Restricted Ownership Percentage applicable to its Notes upon not less than 61 days’ prior written notice to the Company, or (ii) decrease the Restricted Ownership Percentage applicable to its Notes effective immediately upon written notice to the Company; provided, however, that (x) no Holder shall be entitled to effect any increase in the Restricted Ownership Percentage applicable to its Notes if such Holder or any Additional Restricted Ownership Person has acquired beneficial ownership of Notes or any other securities of the Company subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein with the purpose or effect of changing or influencing the control of the Company and (y) the Restricted Ownership Percentage shall in no event exceed 9.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of Notes held by the applicable Holder. Any such increase will not be effective until the 61st day after such notice is delivered to the Company and any such increase or decrease shall only apply to such Holder and no other Holder.

(iv)          The Trustee and any Agent shall have no obligation to monitor when or if the Stockholder Approval Date occurs or to provide notice of such occurrence.

(v)           The Company shall use commercially reasonable best efforts (which shall include, without limitation, the engagement of a nationally reputable proxy advisor firm acceptable to the Holders) to obtain at its next annual or special meeting of its stockholders following the date of this Indenture such approval of its stockholders as is necessary under the rules or regulations of the Exchange to permit each Holder and/or Additional Restricted Ownership Person to beneficially own shares of Common Stock without being subject to the Nasdaq Change of Control Cap (the “Nasdaq Change of Control Approval” and the date of the first meeting of the Company’s stockholders after the date hereof at which the Nasdaq Change of Control Approval is voted upon, the “Initial Stockholder Meeting Date”). In the event that the Nasdaq Change of Control Approval is not obtained on or before December 19, 2023, the Company shall use commercially reasonable best efforts to obtain the Nasdaq Change of Control Approval at a subsequent annual or special meeting of its stockholders to be held each calendar quarter thereafter until Nasdaq Change of Control Approval is obtained; provided, however that the Company shall only be required to engage a proxy advisor firm with respect to one of the subsequent meetings of the Company’s stockholders after the Initial Stockholder Meeting Date, which meeting shall be determined by Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes and notice of such determination shall be provided in writing and delivered to the Company and the Trustee.

Section 4.02         Conversion Procedures.

(a)            Each Physical Note shall be convertible at the office of the Conversion Agent and, if applicable, Global Notes shall be convertible in accordance with the Applicable Procedures.

(b)            To exercise the conversion privilege with respect to a beneficial interest in a Global Note, the Holder must comply with the Applicable Procedures for converting a beneficial interest on a Global Note and pay any taxes or duties if required pursuant to Section 4.02(f), and the Conversion Agent must be informed of the conversion in accordance with the customary practice of the Depositary.

To exercise the conversion privilege with respect to any Physical Notes, the Holder of such Physical Notes shall:

(i)            duly sign and complete a conversion notice in the form set forth in the Form of Notice of Conversion (the “Conversion Notice”) or a facsimile of the Conversion Notice;

(ii)           deliver the Conversion Notice, which is irrevocable, and the Note to the Conversion Agent;

(iii)          if required, furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents; and

(iv)          if required, pay all transfer or similar taxes as set forth in Section 4.02(f).

If the Conversion Notice is being delivered on a date after the Close of Business on a Regular Record Date and prior to the Open of Business on the Interest Payment Date corresponding to such Regular Record Date, the Conversion Notice must be accompanied by payment of an amount equal to the interest payable on such Interest Payment Date on the principal amount of the Note to be converted.

If, upon conversion of a Note, any shares of Common Stock are to be issued to a Person other than the Holder of such Note, the related Conversion Notice shall include such other Person’s name and address.

For any Note, the date on which the Holder of such Note satisfies all of the applicable requirements set forth above with respect to such Note shall be the “Conversion Date” with respect to such Note.

Each conversion shall be deemed to have been effected as to any such Notes (or portion thereof) surrendered for conversion immediately prior to the Close of Business on the applicable Conversion Date; provided, however, that except to the extent required by Section 4.04, the person in whose name any shares of Common Stock shall be issuable upon conversion, if any, shall be treated as a stockholder of record as of the Close of Business on the Conversion Date in a Physical Settlement. For the avoidance of doubt, subject to the satisfaction by the Company of each of its obligations in connection with such conversion and any other conditions set forth in this Indenture, at the Close of Business on the Conversion Date for such conversion, the applicable Holder shall no longer be the Holder of the Notes so converted.

(c)            Endorsement. Any Notes surrendered for conversion shall, unless shares of Common Stock issuable on conversion are to be issued in the same name as the registration of such Notes, be duly endorsed by, or be accompanied by instruments of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company duly executed by, the Holder or its duly authorized attorney.

(d)            Physical Notes. If any Physical Notes in a denomination greater than $1.00 shall be surrendered for partial conversion, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of the Physical Notes so surrendered, without charge, new Physical Notes in authorized denominations in an aggregate principal amount equal to the unconverted portion of the surrendered Physical Notes.

(e)            Global Notes. Upon the conversion of a beneficial interest in Global Notes, the Conversion Agent shall make a notation in its records as to the reduction in the principal amount represented thereby. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of any conversions of Notes effected through any Conversion Agent other than the Trustee.

(f)            Taxes Due upon Conversion. If a Note is converted, the Company will pay any documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer tax due on the issue of any shares of the Common Stock upon the conversion, unless the tax is due because the Holder requests that any shares be issued in a name other than the Holder’s name, in which case the Holder will pay that tax.

Section 4.03         Settlement Upon Conversion.

(a)            Settlement. Subject to this Section 4.03 and Sections 4.01(c), 4.06 and 4.07, upon conversion of any Note, the Company shall deliver to Holders, in full satisfaction of its conversion obligation under Section 4.01, in respect of each $1,000 of the sum of the principal amount of Notes plus accrued interest plus the Make-Whole Amount related thereto being converted, a Settlement Amount consisting solely of shares of Common Stock (together with cash in lieu of any fractional share of Common Stock pursuant to Section 4.03(b)) (“Physical Settlement”).

(i)            Settlement Amount. The shares of Common Stock in respect of any conversion of Notes (the “Settlement Amount”) shall be computed as follows: the Company shall deliver to the Holder of the Notes so converting, in respect of each $1,000 of the sum of the principal amount of its Notes plus accrued interest plus the Make-Whole Amount related thereto being converted, a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the applicable Conversion Rate, together with cash in lieu of any fractional shares of Common Stock pursuant to Section 4.03(b);

(ii)            Delivery Obligation. The Settlement Amounts upon conversion of the Notes will delivered by the Company through the Company’s stock transfer agent, in the case of Common Stock or the Conversion Agent, in the case of cash. The Company shall pay or deliver the Settlement Amount due in respect of its conversion obligation under this Section 4.03, on the second Trading Day immediately following the relevant Conversion Date; provided, however, that if prior to the Conversion Date for any converted Notes, the Common Stock has been replaced by Reference Property consisting solely of cash, the Company will pay the conversion consideration due in respect of such conversion on the third Trading Day immediately following the related Conversion Date, and, notwithstanding the foregoing in this Section 4.03, no Conversion Period will apply to those conversions.

(b)            Fractional Shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company will not issue fractional shares of Common Stock as part of the Settlement Amount due with respect to any converted Note. Instead, if any Settlement Amount includes a fraction of a share of the Common Stock, the Company will, in lieu of delivering such fraction of a share of Common Stock, pay an amount of cash equal to the product of such fraction of a share and the Daily VWAP on the relevant Conversion Date, or if such Conversion Date is not a VWAP Trading Day, the immediately preceding VWAP Trading Day.

(c)            Conversion of Multiple Notes by a Single Holder. If a Holder surrenders more than one Note for conversion on a single Conversion Date, the Company will calculate the amount of cash and the number of shares of Common Stock due with respect to such Notes as if such Xxxxxx had surrendered for conversion one Note having an aggregate principal amount equal to the sum of the principal amounts of each of the Notes surrendered for conversion by such Holder on such Conversion Date or, if the Notes surrendered for conversion are beneficial interests in a Global Note, based on such other aggregate number of Notes, or beneficial interests therein, being surrendered by the Holder for conversion on the same date as the Depositary may otherwise request.

(d)            Settlement of Accrued Interest, Make-Whole Amount and Deemed Payment of Principal. If a Note is converted, the Company will adjust the Conversion Rate to account for any accrued and unpaid interest on such Note plus any Make-Whole Amount related to such Note, and the Company’s delivery of shares of Common Stock into which a Note is convertible must be in an amount of shares of Common Stock (plus cash in lieu of fractional shares of Common Stock) necessary to satisfy and discharge in full the Company’s obligation to pay the principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on such Note to, but excluding, the Conversion Date, plus any Make-Whole Amount on such Note. As a result, any accrued and unpaid interest and Make-Whole Amount with respect to a converted Note paid with shares of Common Stock (and cash in lieu of fractional shares of Common Stock) as required by this Article 4, will be deemed to be paid in full rather than cancelled, extinguished or forfeited to the extent shares of Common Stock are delivered in the amount of such accrued and unpaid interest and Make-Whole Amount (plus cash for fractional shares of Common Stock). In addition, if the Settlement Amount for any Note includes both cash and shares of Common Stock, accrued but unpaid interest will be deemed to be paid first out of the delivery of Common Shares (and cash in lieu of fractional shares of Common Stock) delivered upon such conversion, then the Make-Whole Amount will be deemed paid, then principal.

(e)            Notices. Whenever a Conversion Date occurs with respect to a Note, the Conversion Agent will, as promptly as possible, and in no event later than the Business Day immediately following such Conversion Date, deliver to the Company and the Trustee, if it is not then the Conversion Agent, written notice that a Conversion Date has occurred, which notice will state such Conversion Date, the principal amount of Notes, accrued interest and Make-Whole Amount converted on such Conversion Date and the names of the Holders that converted Notes on such Conversion Date.

Section 4.04         Adjustment of Conversion Rate.

The Conversion Rate will be adjusted as described in this Section 4.04, except that no adjustment to the Conversion Rate will be made for a given transaction if Holders of the Notes will participate in that transaction, without conversion of the Notes, on the same terms and at the same time as a holder of a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the principal amount of a Holder’s Notes plus accrued interest thereon plus the Make-Whole Amount divided by $1,000 and multiplied by the Conversion Rate would participate.

(a)            If the Company issues solely shares of Common Stock as a dividend or distribution on all or substantially all shares of the Common Stock, or if the Company subdivides or combines the Common Stock, the Conversion Rate will be adjusted based on the following formula:

where,

	CR      =	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the Open of Business on such Ex- Dividend Date of such dividend or distribution, or immediately prior to the Open of Business on the effective date of such share split or combination, as applicable;

	CR₀    =	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the Open of Business on the Ex- Dividend Date of such dividend or distribution, or immediately after the Open of Business on the effective date of such share split or combination, as applicable;

	OS      =	the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date of such dividend or distribution, or immediately prior to the Open of Business on the effective date of such share split or combination, as applicable; and

	OS₀    =	the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such dividend or distribution, or immediately after the effective date of such subdivision or combination of common stock, as the case may be.

Any adjustment made under this clause (a) will become effective immediately after the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution (regardless of whether the dividend or distribution date is scheduled to occur after the Maturity Date), or immediately after the Open of Business on the effective date of such subdivision or combination of Common Stock, as the case may be. If such dividend, distribution, subdivision or combination described in this clause (a) is declared but not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall be immediately readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors or a duly authorized committee thereof determines not to pay such dividend or distribution or to effect such subdivision or combination, to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared or subdivision or combination had not been announced.

(b)           If an Ex-Dividend Date occurs for a distribution to all or substantially all holders of the Common Stock any rights, options or warrants entitling them, for a period of not more than 45 calendar days from the announcement date for such distribution, to subscribe for or purchase shares of the Common Stock, at a price per share less than the average of the Closing Sale Prices of the Common Stock for the 10 consecutive Trading-Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the announcement date for such distribution, the Conversion Rate will be increased based on the following formula:

where,

	CR      =	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution;

	CR₀    =	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution;

	OS₀    =	the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution;

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

Y         =

the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the aggregate price payable to exercise such rights, options or warrants divided by the average of the Closing Sale Prices of the Common Stock over the 10 consecutive Trading-Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the announcement date for such distribution.

Any increase made under this clause (b) will be made successively whenever any such rights, options or warrants are issued and will become effective immediately after the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution, regardless of whether the distribution date is scheduled to occur after the Maturity Date. To the extent that such rights, options or warrants expire prior to the Maturity Date and shares of Common Stock are not delivered after the expiration of such rights, options or warrants, the Conversion Rate shall be decreased to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect had the increase with respect to the issuance of such rights, options or warrants been made on the basis of delivery of only the number of shares of Common Stock actually delivered. If such rights, options or warrants were scheduled to be distributed prior to the Maturity Date and are not so distributed, the Conversion Rate shall be decreased to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution had not occurred.

For purposes of this Section 4.04(b) and Section 4.01(b)(i), in determining whether any rights, options or warrants entitle the holders to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at a price that is less than the average of the Closing Sale Prices of the Common Stock for each Trading Day in the applicable 10 consecutive Trading-Day period, there shall be taken into account any consideration the Company receives for such rights, options or warrants and any amount payable on exercise thereof, with the value of such consideration, if other than cash, to be determined in good faith by the Board of Directors or a duly authorized committee thereof.

(c)            If an Ex-Dividend Date occurs for a distribution (the “Relevant Distribution”) of shares of the Company’s Capital Stock, evidences of the Company’s indebtedness or other assets or property of the Company’s or rights, options or warrants to acquire the Company’s Capital Stock or other securities, to all or substantially all holders of Common Stock (excluding (i) dividends or distributions and rights, options or warrants as to which an adjustment was effected under clause (a) or (b) above; (ii) dividends or distributions paid exclusively in cash; and (iii) Spin-Offs), then the Conversion Rate will be increased based on the following formula:

where,

	CR      =	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution;

	CR₀    =	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution;

	SP₀    =	the average of the Closing Sale Prices of the Common Stock over the 10 consecutive Trading Day-period ending on, and including, 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 or a duly authorized committee thereof) of the shares of Capital Stock, evidences of indebtedness, assets or property or rights, options or warrants distributed with respect to each outstanding share of Common Stock as of the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution.

Any increase made under the above portion of this clause (c) will become effective immediately after the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution. No adjustment pursuant to the above formula will result in a decrease of the Conversion Rate. However, if such distribution is scheduled to be paid or made prior to the Maturity Date and is not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall be decreased to be the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such distribution had not been declared. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if “FMV” (as defined above) is equal to or greater than “SP0” (as defined above), in lieu of the foregoing increase, each Holder of a Note shall receive, in respect of each $1,000 of the sum of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest plus the Make-Whole Amount related thereto, at the same time and upon the same terms as holders of the Common Stock, without having to convert its Notes, the amount and kind of the Relevant Distribution that such Holder would have received if such Holder owned a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate in effect on the Ex-Dividend Date for the distribution.

With respect to an adjustment pursuant to this clause (c) where there has been an Ex-Dividend Date for a dividend or other distribution on the Common Stock of shares of Capital Stock of any class or series, or similar equity interest, of or relating to a subsidiary or other business unit, that are, or, when issued, will be, listed or admitted for trading on a U.S. national securities exchange (a “Spin-Off”), the Conversion Rate will be increased based on the following formula:

where,

	CR      =	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such Spin-Off;

	CR₀    =	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such Spin-Off;

	FMV₀ =	the average of the Closing Sale Prices of the Capital Stock or similar equity interest distributed to holders of the Common Stock applicable to one share of the Common Stock over the first 10 consecutive Trading-Day period commencing on, and including, the Ex-Dividend Date for the Spin-Off (such period, the “Valuation Period”); and

	MP₀   =	the average of the Closing Sale Prices of Common Stock over the Valuation Period.

The adjustment to the applicable conversion rate under the preceding paragraph of this clause (c) will be determined on the last day of the Valuation Period but will be given effect immediately after the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date for the Spin-Off. If the Ex-Dividend Date for the Spin-Off is less than 10 Trading Days prior to, and including, the end of the Conversion Period in respect of any conversion, references within this clause (c) to 10 Trading Days shall be deemed to be replaced, solely in respect of that conversion, with such lesser number of Trading Days as have elapsed from, and including, the Ex-Dividend Date for the Spin-Off to, and including, the last VWAP Trading Day of such Conversion Period. In respect of any conversion during the Valuation Period for any Spin-Off, references within this clause (c) related to 10 Trading Days shall be deemed to be replaced, solely in respect of that conversion, with such lesser number of Trading Days as have elapsed from, and including, the Ex-Dividend Date for such Spin-Off to, but excluding, the relevant Conversion Date.

For purposes of the second adjustment formula set forth in this Section 4.04(c), (i) the Closing Sale Price of any Capital Stock or similar equity interest shall be calculated in a manner analogous to that used to calculate the Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock in the definition of “Closing Sale Price” set forth in Section 1.01, (ii) whether a day is a Trading Day (and whether a day is a Scheduled Trading Day and whether a Market Disruption Event has occurred) for such Capital Stock or similar equity interest shall be determined in a manner analogous to that used to determine whether a day is a Trading Day (or whether a day is a Scheduled Trading Day and whether a Market Disruption Event has occurred) for the Common Stock, and (iii) whether a day is a Trading Day to be included in a Valuation Period will be determined based on whether a day is a Trading Day for both the Common Stock and such Capital Stock or similar equity interest.

Subject to Section 4.04(g), for the purposes of this Section 4.04(c), rights, options or warrants distributed to all or substantially all holders of the Common Stock entitling them to acquire the Company’s Capital Stock or other securities, (either initially or under certain circumstances), which rights, options or warrants, until the occurrence of a specified event or events (a “Trigger Event”): (1) are deemed to be transferred with such shares of Common Stock; (2) are not exercisable; and (3) are also issued in respect of future issuances of Common Stock (including, for the avoidance of doubt, upon settlement of conversions of Notes), shall be deemed not to have been distributed for purposes of this Section 4.04(c) (and no adjustment to the Conversion Rate under this Section 4.04(c) will be required) until the occurrence of the earliest Trigger Event, whereupon such rights, options or warrants shall be deemed to have been distributed and an appropriate adjustment (if any is required) to the Conversion Rate shall be made under this Section 4.04(c). If any such rights, options or warrants, distributed prior to the Issue Date are subject to events, upon the occurrence of which such rights, options or warrants become exercisable to purchase different securities, evidences of indebtedness or other assets, then the date of the occurrence of any and each such event shall be deemed to be the date of distribution and Ex-Dividend Date of such deemed distribution (in which case the original rights, options or warrants shall be deemed to terminate and expire on such date without exercise by any of the holders). In addition, in the event of any distribution or deemed distribution of rights, options or warrants, or any Trigger Event or other event (of the type described in the preceding sentence) with respect thereto that was counted for purposes of calculating a distribution amount for which an adjustment to the Conversion Rate under this Section 4.04(c) was made, (1) in the case of any such rights, options or warrants which shall all have been redeemed or purchased without exercise by any Holders thereof, upon such final redemption or purchase (x) the Conversion Rate shall be readjusted as if such rights, options or warrants had not been issued and (y) the Conversion Rate shall then again be readjusted to give effect to such distribution, deemed distribution or Trigger Event, as the case may be, as though it were a cash distribution, equal to the per share redemption or purchase price received by holders of Common Stock with respect to such rights, options or warrants (assuming each such holder had retained such rights, options or warrants), made to all holders of Common Stock as of the date of such redemption or purchase, and (2) in the case of such rights, options or warrants which shall have expired or been terminated without exercise by any holders thereof, the Conversion Rate shall be readjusted as if such rights and warrants had not been issued.

For purposes of Sections 4.04(a) through (c), if any dividend or distribution to which this Section 4.04(c) applies includes one or both of:

(A)

a dividend or distribution of shares of Common Stock to which Section 4.04(a) also applies (the “Clause A Distribution”); or

(B)

an issuance of rights, options or warrants entitling holders of the Common Stock to subscribe for or purchase shares of the Common Stock to which Section 4.04(b) also applies (the “Clause B Distribution”),

then (i) such dividend or distribution, other than the Clause A Distribution and the Clause B Distribution, shall be deemed to be a distribution to which this Section 4.04(c) applies (the “Clause C Distribution”) and any Conversion Rate adjustment required to be made under this Section 4.04(c) with respect to such Clause C Distribution shall be made, (ii) the Clause B Distribution, if any, shall be deemed to immediately follow the Clause C Distribution and any Conversion Rate adjustment required by Section 4.04(b) with respect thereto shall then be made, except that, if determined by the Company, (A) the “Ex-Dividend Date” of the Clause B Distribution and the Clause A Distribution, if any, shall be deemed to be the Ex-Dividend Date of the Clause C Distribution and (B) any shares of Common Stock included in the Clause A Distribution or the Clause B Distribution shall not be deemed to be “outstanding immediately prior to the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date” within the meaning of Section 4.04(b), and (iii) the Clause A Distribution, if any, shall be deemed to immediately follow the Clause C Distribution or the Clause B Distribution, as the case may be, except that, if determined by the Company, (A) the “Ex-Dividend Date” of the Clause A Distribution and the Clause B Distribution, if any, shall be deemed to be the Ex-Dividend Date of the Clause C Distribution, and (B) any shares of Common Stock included in the Clause A Distribution shall not be deemed to be “outstanding immediately prior to the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date or such effective date” within the meaning of Section 4.04(a).

(d)            If an Ex-Dividend Date occurs for a cash dividend or distribution to all, or substantially all, holders of the outstanding Common Stock (other than any dividend or distribution in connection with the Company’s liquidation, dissolution or winding up), the Conversion Rate will be increased based on the following formula:

where,

	CR       =	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution;

	CR₀     =	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution;

	SP₀      =	the Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution; and

C          = 

the amount in cash per share that the Company pays or distributes to substantially all holders of the Common Stock.

Any increase made under this clause (d) shall become effective immediately after the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend date for such dividend or distribution. No adjustment pursuant to the above formula will result in a decrease of the Conversion Rate. However, if any dividend or distribution described in this clause (d) is scheduled to be paid or made prior to the Maturity Date but is not so paid or made, the new Conversion Rate shall be readjusted to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if “C” (as defined above) is equal to or greater than “SP₀” (as defined above), in lieu of the foregoing increase, each Holder of a Note shall receive, for each $1,000 of the sum of the principal amount of Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon plus the Make-Whole Amount related thereto, at the same time and upon the same terms as holders of shares of the Common Stock, without having to convert its Notes, the amount of cash that such Holder would have received if such Holder owned a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the applicable Conversion Rate on the Ex-Dividend Date for such cash dividend or distribution.

(e)            If the Company or any of its Subsidiaries makes a payment in respect of a tender or exchange offer for the Common Stock, and if the cash and value of any other consideration included in the payment per share of Common Stock exceeds the average of the Closing Sale Prices of the Common Stock over the 10 consecutive Trading-Day period commencing on, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the last date on which tenders or exchanges may be made pursuant to such tender or exchange offer (the “Offer Expiration Date”), the Conversion Rate will be increased based on the following formula:

where,

	CR       =	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the Open of Business on the Trading Day next succeeding the Offer Expiration Date;

	CR₀     =	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the Open of Business on the Trading Day next succeeding the Offer Expiration Date;

	AC      =	the aggregate value of all cash and any other consideration (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors or a duly authorized committee thereof) paid or payable for shares of Common Stock purchased in such tender or exchange offer;

	OS₀    =	the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the time (the “Offer Expiration Time”) such tender or exchange offer expires (prior to giving effect to such tender or exchange offer);

OS       =

the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after the Offer Expiration Time (after giving effect to the purchase of all shares accepted for purchase or exchange in such tender or exchange offer); and

SP       =

the average of the Closing Sale Prices of the Common Stock over the 10 consecutive Trading-Day period commencing on, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the Offer Expiration Date.

The adjustment to the Conversion Rate under the preceding paragraph of this clause (e) will be determined at the Close of Business on the tenth Trading Day immediately following, but excluding, the Offer Expiration Date but will be given effect at the Open of Business on the Trading Day next succeeding the Offer Expiration Date. If the Trading Day next succeeding the Offer Expiration Date is less than 10 Trading Days prior to, and including, the end of the Conversion Period in respect of any conversion, references within this clause (e) to 10 Trading Days shall be deemed to be replaced, solely in respect of that conversion, with such lesser number of Trading Days as have elapsed from, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the Offer Expiration Date to, and including, the last VWAP Trading Day of such Conversion Period. In respect of any conversion during the 10 Trading Days commencing on the Trading Day next succeeding the Offer Expiration Date, references within this clause (e) to 10 Trading Days shall be deemed to be replaced, solely in respect of that conversion, with such lesser number of Trading Days as have elapsed from, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the Offer Expiration Date to, but excluding, the relevant Conversion Date. No adjustment pursuant to the above formula will result in a decrease of the Conversion Rate.

(f)            Special Settlement Provisions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if a Note is converted and:

(i)            any distribution, transaction or event described in Sections 4.04(a) through (e) has not yet resulted in an adjustment to the Conversion Rate on such VWAP Trading Day; and

(ii)           the shares of Common Stock deliverable in respect of such VWAP Trading Day are not entitled to participate in the relevant distribution or transaction (because such shares of Common Stock were not held on a related Record Date or otherwise),

then the Company will adjust the number of shares of Common Stock delivered in respect of the relevant VWAP Trading Day to reflect the relevant distribution or transaction.

If a Note is converted and:

(i)            Physical Settlement is applicable to such Note;

(ii)

any distribution or transaction described in Sections 4.04(a) through (e) has not yet resulted in an adjustment to the Conversion Rate on a given Conversion Date; and

(iii)

the shares of Common Stock deliverable on settlement of the related conversion are not entitled to participate in the relevant distribution or transaction (because such shares of Common Stock were not held on a related Record Date or otherwise),

then the Company will adjust the number of shares of Common Stock delivered in respect of the relevant conversion to reflect the relevant distribution or transaction.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Conversion Rate adjustment becomes effective on any Ex-Dividend Date as described above, and a Holder of Notes that has converted on or after such Ex-Dividend Date and on or prior to the related Record Date would be treated as the record holder of shares of Common Stock as of the related Conversion Date pursuant to Section 4.03 based on an adjusted Conversion Rate for such Ex-Dividend Date, then, notwithstanding the foregoing Conversion Rate adjustment provisions, the Conversion Rate adjustment relating to such Ex-Dividend Date will not be made for the Holder of such converting Notes. Instead, such Holder will be treated as if such Holder were the record owner of the shares of Common Stock on an unadjusted basis and participate in the related dividend, distribution or other event giving rise to such adjustment.

(g)            Poison Pill. If a Note is converted, to the extent that the Company has a rights plan in effect on the Conversion Date applicable to such Note, the Holder of such converting Note will receive, in addition to any shares of Common Stock otherwise received in connection with such conversion on such Conversion Date or such VWAP Trading Day, as the case may be, the rights under the rights plan, unless prior to such Conversion Date or such VWAP Trading Day, as the case may be, the rights have separated from the Common Stock, in which case, and only in such case, the Conversion Rate will be adjusted at the time of separation as if the Company distributed to all holders of the Common Stock, Distributed Property as described in Section 4.04(c), subject to readjustment in the event of the expiration, termination or redemption of such rights.

(h)            Deferral of Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Company will not be required to adjust the Conversion Rate unless such adjustment would result in a change of at least one percent; provided, however, that the Company shall carry forward any adjustments that are less than one percent of the Conversion Rate and make such carried forward adjustments (i) when the cumulative net effect of all adjustments not yet made will result in a change of at least one percent of the Conversion Rate or (ii) regardless of whether the aggregate adjustment is less than one percent, (1) upon any offer to purchase the Notes following a Fundamental Change, (2) on each of the VWAP Trading Days within any Conversion Period, (3) upon any conversion of Notes and (4) on the Effective Date for any Fundamental Change.

(i)            Limitation on Adjustments. Except as stated in this Section 4.04, the Company will not adjust the Conversion Rate for the issuance of shares of Common Stock or any securities convertible into or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock or the right to purchase shares of Common Stock or such convertible or exchangeable securities. If, however, the application of the formulas in Sections 4.04(a) through (e) would result in a decrease in the Conversion Rate, then, except to the extent of any readjustment to the Conversion Rate, no adjustment to the Conversion Rate will be made (other than as a result of a reverse share split or share combination).

For purposes of this Section 4.04, the number of shares of Common Stock at any time outstanding shall not include shares held in the treasury of the Company so long as the Company does not pay any dividend or make any distribution on shares of Common Stock 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.

Section 4.05         Discretionary and Voluntary Adjustments.

(a)            Discretionary Adjustments. Whenever any provision of this Indenture requires the Company to calculate the Closing Sale Prices, the Daily VWAPs or any function thereof over a span of multiple days (including during an Conversion Period), the Company will make appropriate adjustments to each, if any, to account for any adjustment to the Conversion Rate that becomes effective, or any event requiring an adjustment to the Conversion Rate where the effective date, Ex-Dividend Date or Offer Expiration Date of the event occurs, at any time during the period when such Closing Sale Prices, the Daily VWAPs or function thereof is to be calculated.

(b)            Voluntary Adjustments. To the extent permitted by law and any applicable rules of the Exchange, the Company is permitted to increase the Conversion Rate of the Notes by any amount for a period of at least 20 Business Days if such increase is irrevocable for such period and the Board of Directors determines that such increase would be in the Company’s best interest; provided that the Company must give at least 15 days’ prior notice of any such increase in the Conversion Rate to the Holders (with a copy to the Trustee and Conversion Agent). The Company may also (but is not required to) increase the Conversion Rate to avoid or diminish income tax to holders of Common Stock or rights to purchase shares of Common Stock in connection with a dividend or distribution of shares (or rights to acquire shares) or similar event.

Section 4.06         Subsequent Financing Adjustments.

If the Company or any Subsidiary, as applicable, sells or grants any option to purchase or sells or grants any right to reprice, or otherwise disposes of or issues (or announces any sale, grant or any option to purchase or other disposition), any Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents entitling any Person to acquire shares of Common Stock at an effective price per share that is lower than the then Conversion Price (such lower price, the “Base Conversion Price” and such issuances, collectively, a “Dilutive Issuance”) (if the holder of the Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents so issued shall at any time, whether by operation of purchase price adjustments, reset provisions, floating conversion, exercise or exchange prices or otherwise, or due to warrants, options or rights per share which are issued in connection with such issuance, be entitled to receive shares of Common Stock at an effective price per share that is lower than the Conversion Price then in effect, such issuance shall be deemed to have occurred for less than the Conversion Price on such date of the Dilutive Issuance), then simultaneously with the consummation (or, if earlier, the announcement) of each Dilutive Issuance, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted in order to reduce and only reduce the Conversion Price to equal the Base Conversion Price, provided that the Base Conversion Price shall not be less than $5.50 prior to the Stockholder Approval Date and $1.00 on and after the Stockholder Approval Date (subject to adjustment for reverse and forward stock splits, recapitalizations and similar transactions following the date hereof). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no adjustment will be made under this Section 4.06 in respect of an Exempt Issuance. If the Company enters into a Variable Rate Transaction, the Company shall be deemed to have issued Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents at the lowest possible conversion price at which such securities may be converted or exercised. The Company shall notify the Holders in writing (with a copy to the Trustee and Conversion Agent), no later than the Trading Day following the issuance of any Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents subject to this Section 4.06, indicating therein the applicable issuance price, or applicable reset price, exchange price, conversion price and other pricing terms (such notice, the “Dilutive Issuance Notice”). For purposes of clarification, whether or not the Company provides a Dilutive Issuance Notice pursuant to this Section 4.06, upon the occurrence of any Dilutive Issuance, the Holders are entitled to receive a number of shares of Common Stock upon conversion of Notes based upon the Base Conversion Price on or after the date of such Dilutive Issuance, regardless of whether such Holder accurately refers to the Base Conversion Price in the Conversion Notice.

Section 4.07         Effect of Recapitalization, Reclassification, Consolidation, Merger or Sale.

(a)            Merger Events. In the case of:

(i)            any recapitalization, reclassification or change of the Common Stock (other than changes resulting from a split, subdivision or combination for which an adjustment was made pursuant to Section 4.04(a));

(ii)           any consolidation, merger, combination, binding share exchange or similar transaction involving the Company;

(iii)          any sale, assignment, conveyance, transfer, lease or other disposition to a third party of the consolidated property and assets of the Company as an entirety or substantially as an entirety; or

(iv)          a liquidation or dissolution of the Company;

and, in each case, as a result of which the Common Stock would be converted into, or exchanged for, common stock, other securities, other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) (any such event, a “Merger Event,” any such common stock, other securities, other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof), “Reference Property,” and (i) the amount and kind of Reference Property that a holder of one share of Common Stock is entitled to receive in the applicable Merger Event, or (ii) if as a result of the applicable Merger Event, each share of Common Stock is converted into, or exchanged for, the right to receive more than a single type of consideration (determined based in part upon any form of stockholder election), the per share of Common Stock weighted average of the amounts and kinds of Reference Property received by the holders of Common Stock that affirmatively make such an election (disregarding, for these purposes, any arrangement to deliver cash in lieu of any fractional security or other unit of Reference Property), a “Unit of Reference Property”) then, at the effective time of such Merger Event, Holders of each $1,000 principal amount of Notes shall be entitled thereafter to convert such Notes plus accrued interest thereon plus the Make-Whole Amount related thereto into the kind and amount of Reference Property that a Holder of a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to such Merger Event would have owned or been entitled to receive upon such Merger Event, and, prior to or at the effective time of such Merger Event, the Company or the successor or purchasing person, as the case may be, shall execute with the Trustee a supplemental indenture providing for such change in the right to convert each $1,000 principal amount of Notes plus accrued interest thereon plus the Make-Whole Amount related thereto; provided, however, that at and after the effective time of the Merger Event, (y) (i) the number of shares of Common Stock that the Company would have been required to deliver upon conversion of the Notes in accordance with Section 4.03 and 4.06 shall instead be deliverable in Units of Reference Property that a Holder of that number of shares of Common Stock would have received in such Merger Event and (ii) the Daily VWAP and the Closing Sale Price will, to the extent reasonably possible, be calculated based on the value of a Unit of Reference Property and the definitions of VWAP Trading Day and VWAP Market Disruption Event shall be determined by reference to the components of a Unit of Reference Property. The Company shall notify in writing the Holders, the Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee) of such weighted average as soon as practicable after such determination is made.

The Company shall not become a party to any Merger Event unless its terms are consistent with this Section 4.07. Such supplemental indenture described in the immediately preceding paragraph shall provide for adjustments which shall be as nearly equivalent to the adjustments provided for in this Article 4 in the judgment of the Board of Directors or the board of directors of the successor person. If, in the case of any such Merger Event, the Reference Property receivable thereupon by a holder of Common Stock includes shares of stock, securities or other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) of a person other than the successor or purchasing person, as the case may be, in such Merger Event, then such indenture shall also be executed by such other person.

If the Notes become convertible into, or exchanged for Reference Property, the Company shall notify the Trustee and the Conversion Agent, and shall issue a press release containing the relevant information (and make such press release available on the Company’s website).

(b)            Notice of Supplemental Indentures. The Company shall cause written notice of the execution of such supplemental indenture to be mailed to each Holder, at the address of such Holder as it appears on the register of the Notes maintained by the Registrar, within 20 calendar days after execution thereof. Failure to deliver such notice shall not affect the legality or validity of such supplemental indenture. The above provisions of this Section 4.07 shall similarly apply to successive Merger Events.

(c)            Prior Notice. In addition, at least 20 Scheduled Trading Days before any Merger Event, the Company shall give notice to Holders of such Merger Event (with a copy to the Trustee and Conversion Agent), or, if the Company has not publicly announced such Merger Event at such time, as promptly as practicable after publicly announcing such Merger Event. In any such notice, the Company shall also specify the composition of the Unit of Reference Property for such Merger Event, or, if the Company has not determined the composition of such Unit of Reference Property at such time, the Company will provide an additional written notice to Holders (with a copy to the Trustee and Conversion Agent) that states the composition of such Unit of Reference Property as promptly as practicable after determining its composition.

(d)            Cash Mergers. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if the consideration paid to holders of the Common Stock in any Merger Event is comprised entirely of cash, then, for any conversion of Notes following such Merger Event, (i) the consideration due upon the conversion of each $1,000 of the sum of the principal amount of Notes plus accrued interest thereon plus the Make-Whole Amount shall be solely in cash in an amount equal to the Conversion Rate in effect on the Conversion Date (including any adjustment as set forth in Section 4.06), multiplied by the price paid per share of Common Stock in such Merger Event and (ii) the Company’s conversion obligation will be determined and paid to Holders in cash on the third Business Day following the applicable Conversion Date.

Section 4.08         Certain Covenants.

(a)           Reservation of Shares. The Company shall reserve and keep available at all times from and after the Initial Issue Date, free from preemptive rights, out of its authorized but unissued Common Stock that is not committed for any other purpose, a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to permit the conversion of the Notes, assuming Physical Settlement applies to all Notes.

(b)           Certain other Covenants. The Company covenants that all shares of Common Stock that may be issued upon conversion of Notes shall be newly issued shares or treasury shares, shall be issued in book-entry form, shall be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and shall be free from preemptive rights and free from any tax, lien or charge (other than those created by the Holder or due to a change in registered owner). The Company shall list or cause to have quoted any shares of Common Stock to be issued upon conversion of Notes on each national securities exchange or over-the-counter or other domestic market on which the Common Stock is then listed or quoted.

(c)           Within 60 calendar days after the Initial Issue Date, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to file with the SEC a definitive proxy statement, at the expense of the Company, for a meeting (special or otherwise) of holders of Common Stock (the “Stockholder Meeting”) to be held within 90 calendar days after the Initial Issue Date, soliciting each such stockholder’s affirmative vote at the Stockholder Meeting for approval of resolutions providing for the Company’s issuance of Common Stock (including, to the maximum extent allowable under the rules and regulations of the Exchange, any shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes, taking into consideration any adjustments set forth in this Indenture) in accordance with applicable law and the rules and regulations of the Exchange without giving effect to any limitation on conversions of the Notes (such affirmative approval being referred to herein collectively as the “Stockholder Approval”), and the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to solicit its stockholders’ approval of such resolutions in connection with the Stockholder Approval.

Section 4.09         Responsibility of Trustee.

The Trustee and any Conversion Agent shall not at any time be under any duty or responsibility to any Holder of Notes to determine or calculate the Conversion Rate (or any adjustment thereto), to determine whether any facts exist which may require any adjustment (including any increase) of the Conversion Rate, or to confirm the accuracy of any such adjustment when made or the appropriateness of the method employed, or herein or in any supplemental indenture provided to be employed, in making the same. The Trustee and any Conversion Agent (if other than the Company) shall not be accountable with respect to the validity or value (or the kind or amount) of any shares of Common Stock, monitoring the Company’s stock trading price or of any other securities or property or cash that may at any time be issued or delivered upon the conversion of any Notes; and the Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the Company) make no representations with respect thereto. Neither the Trustee nor any Conversion Agent (if other than the Company) shall be responsible for any failure of the Company to issue, transfer or deliver any shares of Common Stock or stock certificates or other securities or property or cash upon the surrender of any Notes for the purpose of conversion or to comply with any of the duties, responsibilities or covenants of the Company contained in this Article 4. Without limiting the foregoing, neither the Trustee nor any Conversion Agent shall be under any responsibility to determine the correctness of any provisions contained in any supplemental indenture entered into pursuant to Section 4.07, relating either to the kind or amount of shares of stock or securities or property (including cash) receivable by the Holders upon conversion of their Notes after any event referred to in such Section 4.07 or to any adjustment to be made with respect thereto, but may accept (without any independent investigation) as conclusive evidence of the correctness of any such provisions, and shall be protected in relying upon, an Officer’s Certificate (which the Company shall be obligated to deliver to the Trustee prior to the execution of any such supplemental indenture. Neither the Trustee nor any Conversion Agent shall be responsible for determining whether any event contemplated by this Article 4 has occurred that makes the Notes eligible for conversion or no longer eligible therefore until the Company has delivered to the Trustee and the Conversion Agent any requisite notices referred to in this Article 4 with respect to the commencement or termination of such conversion rights, on which notices the Trustee and the Conversion Agent may conclusively rely, and the Company agrees to delivery such notices to the Trustee and the Conversion Agent as provided for in this Article 4. The rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee, including without limitation its right to be compensated, reimbursed and indemnified, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder, including its capacity as Conversion Agent.

Section 4.10         Notice of Adjustment.

Whenever the Conversion Rate is adjusted as herein provided, the Company shall promptly file with the Trustee and any Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee) an Officer’s Certificate setting forth the Conversion Rate after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment. Unless and until a Responsible Officer of the Trustee (and the Conversion Agent, if different than the Trustee) shall have received such Officer’s Certificate, the Trustee (and the Conversion Agent, if different than the Trustee) shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any adjustment of the Conversion Rate and may assume that the last Conversion Rate of which it has knowledge is still in effect. Promptly after delivery of such certificate, the Company shall (i) issue a press release and make the press release available on the Company’s website and (ii) prepare a notice of such adjustment of the Conversion Rate, in each case, setting forth the adjusted Conversion Rate and the date as of which each adjustment becomes effective and shall deliver such notice of such adjustment of the Conversion Rate to the Holder of each Note (with a copy to the Trustee and Conversion Agent) at his or her last address appearing on the Register provided for in Section 2.06 of this Indenture, within 20 days after execution thereof. Failure to issue such press release or deliver such notice shall not affect the legality, effectiveness or validity of any such adjustment and shall not be an Event of Default under this Indenture.

Section 4.11         Notice to Holders.

(a)           Notice to Holders Prior to Certain Actions. The Company shall deliver notices of the events specified below at the times specified below and containing the information specified below unless, in each case, (i) pursuant to this Indenture, the Company is already required to deliver notice of such event containing at least the information specified below at an earlier time or, (ii) the Company, at the time it is required to deliver a notice, does not have knowledge of all of the information required to be included in such notice, in which case, the Company shall (A) deliver notice at such time containing only the information that it has knowledge of at such time (if it has knowledge of any such information at such time), and (B) promptly upon obtaining knowledge of any such information not already included in a notice delivered by the Company, deliver notice to each Holder with a copy to the Trustee and the Conversion Agent containing such information. In each case, the failure by the Company to give such notice, or any defect therein, shall not affect the legality or validity of such event.

(i)            Voluntary Increases. If the Company increases the Conversion Rate pursuant to Section 4.05(b), the Company shall mail to the Holders with a copy to the Trustee and the Conversion Agent a notice of the increased Conversion Rate and the period during which such increased Conversion Rate will be in effect at least 15 calendar days prior to the date the increased Conversion Rate takes effect, in accordance with the applicable law.

(ii)            Dissolutions, Liquidations and Winding-Ups. If there is a voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding-up of the Company, the Company shall deliver notice to the Holders (with a copy to the Trustee) as promptly as possible, but in any event at least 15 calendar days prior to the earlier of (i) the date on which such dissolution, liquidation or winding-up, as the case may be, is expected to become effective or occur, and (ii) the date as of which it is expected that holders of Common Stock of record shall be entitled to exchange their Common Stock for securities or other property deliverable upon such dissolution, liquidation or winding-up, as the case may be, which notice shall state the expected effective date and record date for such event, as applicable, and the amount and kind of property that a holder of one share of the Common Stock is expected to be entitled, or may elect, to receive in such event. The Company shall deliver an additional notice to holders, as promptly as practicable, whenever the expected effective date or record date, as applicable, or the amount and kind of property that a holder of one share of the Common Stock is expect to be entitled to receive in such event, changes.

(b)           Notices After Certain Actions and Events. Whenever an adjustment to the Conversion Rate becomes effective pursuant to Sections 4.04, 4.05 or 4.06, the Company will (i) deliver to the Trustee and Conversion Agent an Officer’s Certificate stating that such adjustment has become effective, the Conversion Rate, and the manner in which the adjustment was computed and (ii) deliver written notice to the Holders (with a copy to the Trustee and Conversion Agent) stating that such adjustment has become effective and the Conversion Rate or conversion privilege as adjusted. Failure to give any such notice, or any defect therein, shall not affect the validity of any such adjustment.

The Company covenants and agrees that it will cause to be paid the principal of, premium, if any, on and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on each of the Notes at the places, at the respective times and in the manner provided herein and in the Notes. Principal, premium, if any, on accrued and unpaid interest, if any, shall be considered paid on the date due if the Paying Agent holds, as of 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the due date, money deposited by the Company in immediately available funds and designated for and sufficient to pay all principal, premium, if any and interest then due.

Section 5.02         Maintenance of Office or Agency.

The Company will maintain in the continental United States an office of the Paying Agent, an office of the Registrar and an office or agency where Notes may be surrendered for conversion (“Conversion Agent”) and where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Notes and this Indenture may be made. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of such office or agency. If at any time the Company shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee; provided, however, that the Trustee shall not be deemed an agent of the Company for service of legal process.

The Company may also from time to time designate as co-registrars one or more other offices or agencies where the Notes may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations; provided that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Company of its obligation to maintain an office or agency in the continental United States for such purposes. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any such other office or agency. The terms “Paying Agent” and “Conversion Agent” include any such additional or other offices or agencies, as applicable.

The Company hereby initially designates the Trustee as the Paying Agent, Registrar, Conversion Agent, and its Corporate Trust Office shall be considered as one such office or agency of the Company for each of the aforesaid purposes.

Section 5.03         Provisions as to Paying Agent.

(a)            If the Company shall appoint a Paying Agent other than the Trustee, the Company will cause such Paying Agent to execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which such agent shall agree, subject to the provisions of this Section 5.03:

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

(ii)           that it will give the Trustee prompt written notice of any failure by the Company to make any payment of the principal of, any premium on, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on, the Notes when the same shall be due and payable; and

(iii)          that at any time during the continuance of an Event of Default, upon request of the Trustee, it will forthwith pay to the Trustee all sums so held in trust.

The Company shall, on or before each due date of the principal of, any premium on, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on, the Notes, deposit with the Paying Agent a sum sufficient to pay such principal, premium, accrued and unpaid interest, as the case may be, and (unless such Paying Agent is the Trustee) the Company will promptly notify the Trustee in writing of any failure to take such action, provided that, if such deposit is made on the due date, such deposit must be received by the Paying Agent by 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on such date.

(b)           If the Company shall act as its own Paying Agent, it will, on or before each due date of the principal of, any premium on, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on, the Notes, set aside, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes a sum sufficient to pay such principal, any premium, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, as the case may be, so becoming due and will promptly notify the Trustee in writing of any failure to take such action and of any failure by the Company to make any payment of the principal of, premium on, accrued and unpaid interest on, the Notes when the same shall become due and payable.

(c)           Anything in this Section 5.03 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company may, at any time, for the purpose of obtaining a satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, or for any other reason, pay or cause to be paid to the Trustee all sums held in trust by any Paying Agent hereunder as required by this Section 5.03, such sums to be held by the Trustee upon the trusts herein contained and upon such payment by the any Paying Agent to the Trustee, such Paying Agent (if other than the Company) shall be released from all further liability with respect to such sums.

(d)           Subject to any applicable abandoned property law, 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, any premium on, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on, any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, premium, accrued and unpaid interest, has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company on written request of the Company contained in an Officer’s Certificate, 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 5.04         Reports.

As long as any Notes are outstanding, the Company shall (i) file with the Commission within the time periods prescribed by its rules and regulations and (ii) furnish to the Trustee and the Holders within 15 calendar days after it is required to file the same with the Commission pursuant to its rules and regulations (giving effect to any grace period provided by Rule 12b-25 under the Exchange Act), all quarterly and annual financial information required to be contained in Forms 10-Q and 10-K and, with respect to the annual consolidated financial statements only, a report thereon by the Company’s independent auditors. The Company shall not be required to file any report or other information with the Commission if the Commission does not permit such filing, although such reports will be required to be furnished to the Trustee. Any such report, information or document that the Company files with the Commission through the XXXXX system (or any successor thereto) will be deemed to be delivered to the Trustee and the Holders for the purposes of this Section 5.04 at the time of such filing through the XXXXX system (or such successor thereto).

At any time the Company is not subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Company will, so long as any of the Notes or the shares of Common Stock delivered upon conversion of the Notes will, at such time, constitute “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144(a)(3) under the Securities Act, promptly provide to the Trustee and will, upon written request, provide to any Holder, beneficial owner or prospective purchaser of such Notes or such shares of Common Stock the information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act to facilitate the resale of such Notes or such shares of Common Stock pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act. The Company will take such further action as any Holder or beneficial owner of such Notes or any holder or beneficial owner of such shares of Common Stock may reasonably request from time to time to enable such Holder or beneficial owner to sell such Notes or such holder or beneficial owner to sell shares of Common Stock in accordance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act, as such rule may be amended from time to time.

The Trustee shall have no duty to review or analyze reports delivered to it. Delivery of any such reports, information and documents to the Trustee shall be for informational purposes only, and the Trustee’s receipt of such reports, information and documents shall not constitute actual or constructive notice or knowledge of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Company’s compliance with any of its covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on Officer’s Certificates) or any other agreement or document. The Trustee shall not be obligated to monitor or confirm, on a continuing basis or otherwise, the Company’s compliance with the covenants or with respect to any reports or other documents filed with the SEC or XXXXX or any website under the indenture, or participate in any conference calls.

Section 5.05         Statements as to Defaults.

The Company is required to deliver to the Trustee (i) within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year ending December 31, an Officer’s Certificate stating whether or not the signers thereof know of any default of the Company that occurred during the previous year and whether the Company, to the Officer’s knowledge, is in default in the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions and conditions of this Indenture and (ii) within 30 days after the occurrence thereof, written notice in the form of an Officer’s Certificate of any events that would constitute Defaults or Events of Default, setting forth the details of such Defaults or Events of Default, their status and the action the Company is taking or proposes to take in respect thereof. Such Officer’s Certificate shall also comply with any additional requirements set forth in Section 5.07. The Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice of any Default or Event of Default except in accordance with Section 11.02(i).

Section 5.06         Additional Interest Notice.

If Additional Interest is payable by the Company pursuant to Section 5.08 or Section 6.03, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee and the Paying Agent an Officer’s Certificate, prior to the Regular Record Date for each applicable Interest Payment Date, to that effect stating (a) the amount of such Additional Interest that is payable and (b) the date on which such interest is payable. Unless and until a Responsible Officer of the Trustee receives at the Corporate Trust Office such a certificate, the Trustee may assume without inquiry that no such Additional Interest is payable. The Trustee shall have no obligation to calculate or determine, or verify the Company’s calculations or determinations of, the amount of any Additional Interest payable by the Company under this Indenture. If the Company has paid Additional Interest directly to the Persons entitled to it, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate setting forth the particulars of such payment.

Section 5.07         Compliance Certificate and Opinions of Counsel.

(a)           Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Indenture, upon any application or request by the Company to the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, to take any action under any provision of this Indenture or the other Transaction Documents, the Company shall furnish to the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, an Officer’s Certificate stating that all conditions precedent, if any, provided for in this Indenture and any applicable Transaction Documents relating to the proposed action have been complied with and an Opinion of Counsel stating that in the opinion of such counsel all such conditions precedent, if any, have been complied with.

(a)           With respect to any Restricted Notes, if, at any time during the six-month period beginning on, and including, the date which is six months after the Last Original Issuance Date, the Company fails to timely file any periodic report that the Company is required to file with the Commission pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, as applicable (after giving effect to all applicable grace periods thereunder and other than current reports on Form 8-K), or such Restricted Notes are not otherwise Freely Tradable, including pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act, by Holders other than affiliates (within the meaning of Rule 144) of the Company or Holders that were affiliates (within the meaning of Rule 144) of the Company during the 90 days immediately preceding the date of the proposed transfer (as a result of restrictions pursuant to U.S. securities laws or the terms of this Indenture or the Notes), the Company shall pay Additional Interest that will accrue on such Notes at the rate of 0.50% per annum of the principal amount of such Restricted Notes then Outstanding for each day during such period for which the Company’s failure to file has occurred and is continuing or for which the restrictions on transfer are applicable; provided that such six-month period shall end on the date that is one year from the Last Original Issuance Date.

(b)           With respect to any Notes that do not constitute Restricted Notes, if at any time such Notes are not Freely Tradable, including pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act, by Holders other than affiliates (within the meaning of Rule 144) of the Company or Holders that were affiliates (within the meaning of Rule 144) of the Company during the 90 days immediately preceding the date of the proposed transfer (as a result of restrictions pursuant to U.S. securities laws or the terms of this Indenture or the Notes), the Company shall pay Additional Interest that will accrue on such Notes at the rate of 0.50% per annum of the principal amount of Notes then Outstanding for each day during such period for which the restrictions on transfer are applicable.

(d)           Such Additional Interest that is payable under this Section 5.08 shall be payable in kind in arrears on each Interest Payment Date following accrual in the same manner as regular interest on the Notes and will be separate and distinct from, and in addition to, any Additional Interest that may accrue pursuant to Section 6.03, subject to the limitations on the maximum annual rate of Additional Interest set forth in Section 6.03(d).

(e)           In no event shall Additional Interest accruing pursuant to this Section 5.08 accrue on any day under the terms of this Indenture (taking any such Additional Interest pursuant to this Section 5.08 together with any Additional Interest pursuant to Sections 6.03(a) and 6.03(c)) at an annual rate in excess of 0.50% for any violation or Default caused by the Company’s failure to be current in respect of its Exchange Act reporting obligations.

Section 5.15         Accounting Terms.

All accounting terms not specifically or completely defined herein shall be construed in conformity with, and all financial data (including financial ratios and other financial calculations) required to be submitted pursuant to this Agreement shall be prepared in conformity with, GAAP applied on a consistent basis, as in effect from time to time, applied in a manner consistent with that used in preparing the audited financial statements of the Company and its Subsidiaries for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2021, except as otherwise specifically prescribed herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for purposes of determining compliance with any covenant (including the computation of any financial covenant) contained herein, (i) Indebtedness of the Company and its Subsidiaries shall be deemed to be carried at 100% of the outstanding principal amount thereof, and the effects of FASB ASC 825 and FASB ASC 470–20 on financial liabilities shall be disregarded, (ii) all liability amounts shall be determined excluding any liability relating to any operating lease, all asset amounts shall be determined excluding any right-of-use assets relating to any operating lease, all amortization amounts shall be determined excluding any amortization of a right-of-use asset relating to any operating lease, and all interest amounts shall be determined excluding any deemed interest comprising a portion of fixed rent payable under any operating lease, in each case to the extent that such liability, asset, amortization or interest pertains to an operating lease under which the covenantor or a member of its consolidated group is the lessee and would not have been accounted for as such under GAAP as in effect on December 31, 2015, and (iii) all terms of an accounting or financial nature used herein shall be construed, and all computations of amounts and ratios referred to herein shall be made, without giving effect to any election under FASB ASC Topic 825 “Financial Instruments” (or any other financial accounting standard having a similar result or effect) to value any Indebtedness of the Company and its Subsidiary at “fair value”, as defined therein. For purposes of determining the amount of any outstanding Indebtedness, no effect shall be given to (x) any election by the Company to measure an item of Indebtedness using fair value (as permitted by Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification 825– 10–25 (formerly known as FASB 159) or any similar accounting standard) or (y) any change in accounting for leases pursuant to GAAP resulting from the implementation of Financial Accounting Standards Board ASU No. 2016–02, Leases (Topic 842), to the extent such adoption would require recognition of a lease liability where such lease (or similar arrangement) would not have required a lease liability under GAAP as in effect on December 31, 2015.

Changes in GAAP. If at any time any change in GAAP would affect the computation of any financial ratio or requirement set forth in any Transaction Document, and either the Company or the Holders of at least a majority of the aggregate principal amount of Notes then Outstanding shall so request, the Company shall in good faith determine an amended such ratio or requirement to preserve the original intent thereof in light of such change in GAAP (subject to the approval of the Holders of at least a majority of the aggregate principal amount of Notes then Outstanding); provided that, until so amended, (i) such ratio or requirement shall continue to be computed in accordance with GAAP prior to such change therein and (ii) the Company shall provide to the Trustee financial statements and other documents required under this Indenture or as reasonably requested hereunder setting forth a reconciliation between calculations of such ratio or requirement made before and after giving effect to such change in GAAP.

(ii)           rescission and annulment would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction; and

Section 6.03         Additional Interest.

(a)           Notwithstanding Section 6.02, to the extent the Company elects, the sole remedy for an Event of Default under Section 6.01(f) relating to the Company’s failure to comply with Section 5.04 (such Event of Default, a “Reporting Event of Default”), will, for the 180 days after the occurrence of such Reporting Event of Default, consist exclusively of the right to receive Additional Interest at an annual rate equal to (i) 0.25% per annum of the principal amount of the Notes then Outstanding commencing on the date on which such a Reporting Event of Default first occurs and ending on the earlier of the date such Reporting Event of Default is cured or waived or the 90th day following the occurrence of such Reporting Event of Default and (ii) 0.50% per annum of the principal amount of such tranche of Notes outstanding commencing on the 91st day following the occurrence of such Reporting Event of Default (if such Reporting Event of Default is continuing on such 91st day) and ending on the earlier of the date such Reporting Event of Default is cured or waived or the 180th day following the occurrence of such Reporting Event of Default, in each case payable in the same manner and on the same dates as the stated interest payable on the Notes.

(b)           If the Reporting Event of Default is continuing on the 181st day after the date on which such Reporting Event of Default occurred, the Notes will be subject to acceleration as provided in Section 6.02(a).

(c)           In order to elect to pay the Additional Interest as the sole remedy during the first 180 days after the occurrence of a Reporting Event of Default, the Company must notify all Holders of Notes, the Trustee and the Paying Agent in writing of such election on or before the Close of Business on the fifth Business Day prior to the date on which such Reporting Event of Default would otherwise occur. Upon the Company’s failure to timely give such notice of such election or to pay the Additional Interest when due, the Notes will be immediately subject to acceleration by declaration of the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes Outstanding as provided in Section 6.02. Nothing in this Section 6.03 shall affect the rights of Holders of Notes in the event of the occurrence of any other Event of Default.

(d)           In no event shall Additional Interest accruing pursuant to Sections 6.03(a) and 6.03(c) accrue on any day under the terms of this Indenture (taking any such Additional Interest pursuant to Sections 6.03(a) and 6.03(c) together with any Additional Interest pursuant to Section 5.08) at an annual rate in excess of 0.50% for any violation or Default caused by the Company’s failure to be current in respect of its Exchange Act reporting obligations. Such Additional Interest will be payable in kind in the same manner and on the same dates as the stated interest payable on the Notes.

Section 6.04         Waiver of Past Defaults.

Subject to Section 6.02(b), the Holders of at least majority of the aggregate principal amount of Notes then Outstanding, by written notice to the Company and to the Trustee, may waive any Default or Event of Default (except for any Default or Event of Default arising from (a) the Company’s failure to pay principal of, or any interest on, any Notes), (b) the Company’s failure to pay or deliver the Settlement Amounts due upon conversion of any Note within the applicable time period set forth under Section 4.03(a), or (c) the Company’s failure to comply with any provision of this Indenture the modification of which would require the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Note affected) and rescind any acceleration resulting from such Default or Event of Default and its consequences; provided, that no such waiver will extend to or will affect any subsequent Default or Event of Default or shall impair any right consequent on such Default or Event of Default.

Section 6.05         Control by Majority.

The Trustee will not be obligated to exercise any of its rights or powers at the request of the Holders unless such Holders have offered (and if requested, provided) to the Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss, liability or expense. Subject to this Indenture, applicable law and the Trustee’s indemnification, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes may direct in writing the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee with respect to the Notes. The Trustee, however, may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture or that the Trustee determines is unduly prejudicial to the rights of any Holder (provided, however, that the Trustee shall not have an affirmative duty to determine whether any such direction is unduly prejudicial to any Holder).

Section 6.06         Limitation on Suits.

Subject to Section 6.07, no Holder will have any right to institute any proceeding under this Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or Trustee, or for any other remedy under this Indenture or with respect to the Notes unless:

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

(b)           the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then Outstanding Notes deliver to the Trustee a written request that the Trustee pursue a remedy with respect to such Event of Default and have offered (and if requested, provided) indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee to institute such proceeding as Trustee;

(d)           the Trustee has not received from the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then Outstanding Notes a direction inconsistent with such written request within 60 days after such notice, request and offer.

Section 6.07         Rights of Holders to Receive Payment and to Convert.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary elsewhere in this Indenture, the above limitations set forth under Section 6.06 do not apply to a suit instituted by a Holder for the enforcement of a payment of the principal, or any accrued and unpaid interest on, any Note, on or after the applicable due date or the right to convert the Note or to receive the Settlement Amounts due upon conversion in accordance with Article 4, and such right to receive any such payment or delivery, as the case may be, on or after the applicable due dates shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder. Payments of principal and interest that are not made when due will accrue interest per annum at the then-applicable interest rate from the required payment date.

Section 6.08         Collection of Indebtedness; Suit for Enforcement by Trustee.

If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(a), 6.01(b), 6.01(c) or 6.01(d) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee is authorized to recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Company for the whole amount of principal of, premium on, interest on, and the Settlement Amounts due upon the conversion of the Notes and such further amount as is sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the compensation and reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, as well as any other amounts that may be due under Section 11.06.

Section 6.09         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 compensation, and reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the Holders in respect of which such judgment has been recovered.

Section 6.10         Trustee May File Proofs of Claim.

The Trustee is authorized to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable to have the claims of the Trustee and the Holders allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor, its creditors or its property and, unless prohibited by law or applicable regulations, will be entitled to collect, receive and distribute any money or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims, and any custodian in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee, and, in the event that the Trustee consents to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to it for the compensation and reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 11.06. To the extent that the payment of any such compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 11.06 out of the estate in any such proceeding, will be denied for any reason, payment of the same will be secured by a lien on, and is paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, money, securities and other properties that the Holders may be entitled to receive in such proceeding, whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or arrangement or otherwise. Nothing herein contained will be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to, or to accept or to adopt on behalf of any Holder, any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any Holder, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.

Section 6.11         Restoration of Rights and Remedies.

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

Section 6.12         Rights and Remedies Cumulative.

Except as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes in Section 2.09, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders is intended to be 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 6.13         Delay or Omission Not a Waiver.

No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article 6 or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient by the Trustee (subject to the limitations contained in this Indenture) or by the Holders, as the case may be.

Section 6.14         Priorities.

If the Trustee collects any money or property pursuant to this Article 6, it will pay out the money or property in the following order:

FIRST: to the Trustee, each Agent and the Collateral Agent, their respective agents and attorneys for amounts due under this Indenture and the Indenture Documents, including payment of all compensation, expenses and liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, and the costs and expenses of collection

SECOND: to the Holders, for any amounts due and unpaid on the principal of, premium on, accrued and unpaid interest on, and any cash due upon conversion of, any Note, without preference or priority of any kind, according to such amounts due and payable on all of the Notes; and

THIRD: the balance, if any, to the Company or to such other party as a court of competent jurisdiction directs.

The Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to the Holders pursuant to this Section 6.14. If the Trustee so fixes a record date and a payment date, at least 15 calendar days prior to such record date, the Trustee will deliver to each Holder (at the Company’s cost and expense) a written notice, which notice will state such record date, such payment date and the amount of such payment.

Section 6.15         Undertaking for Costs.

All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder, by such Xxxxxx’s acceptance of a Note, shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken 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; provided, however, that the provisions of this Section 6.15 shall not apply to (i) any suit instituted by the Trustee, (ii) any suit instituted by any Holder, or group of Holders, holding in the aggregate more than 10% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then Outstanding, (iii) any suit instituted by any Holder for the enforcement of the payment of the principal, or any interest on, any Note on or after the applicable due date expressed or provided for in this Indenture, (iv) any suit for the enforcement of the right to convert any Note or to receive the Settlement Amounts due upon conversion of any Note in accordance with the provisions of Article 4, or (v) any suit for the enforcement of the right of a beneficial owner to exchange its beneficial interest in a Global Note for a Physical Note if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing in accordance with Section 2.11.

Section 6.16         Waiver of Stay, Extension and Usury Laws.

The Company covenants that, to the extent that it may lawfully do so, it will not at any time insist upon, plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay, extension or usury law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, that 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, by resort to any such law, hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will instead suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law has been enacted.

Section 6.17         Notices from the Trustee.

If a Default occurs and is continuing and is actually known to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, the Trustee must send notice of such Default to each Holder within 90 days after such Event of Default has occurred or after a Responsible Officer obtains actual knowledge. Except in the case of a Default in the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Note or of a Default in the payment or delivery of the Settlement Amounts due upon conversion of any Note, the Trustee may withhold notice if and so long as the Trustee in good faith determines that withholding notice is in the interests of the Holders (it is being understood that the Trustee does not have an affirmative duty to determine whether any action is not in the interest of any Holder).

ARTICLE 9
SUCCESSOR COMPANY

Section 9.01         Company May Consolidate, Etc. on Certain Terms.

Subject to the provisions of Section 9.03, the Company shall not consolidate with, enter into a binding share exchange with, or merge with or into, another Person or sell, assign, convey, transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of its properties and assets substantially as an entirety to another Person, unless:

(a)            the resulting, surviving transferee or successor Person (the “Successor Company”), if not the Company, is a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the U.S., any state of the U.S. or the District of Columbia and the Successor Company expressly assumes, by supplemental indenture, joinder, amendment or otherwise, executed and delivered to the Trustee, in form satisfactory to the Trustee, all of the obligations of the Company under the Notes, this Indenture and the other Indenture Documents;

(b)            immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing under this Indenture with respect to the Notes;

Upon any such consolidation, merger, binding share exchange, sale, assignment, conveyance, transfer, lease or other disposition to another Person, the Successor Company (if not the Company) shall succeed to, and may exercise every right and power of the Company under this Indenture.

Section 9.02         Successor Corporation to Be Substituted.

In case of any such consolidation, merger, binding share exchange, sale, assignment, conveyance, transfer, lease or other disposition to another Person and upon the assumption by the Successor Company (if other than the Company), by supplemental indenture, executed and delivered to the Trustee and satisfactory in form to the Trustee, of the due and punctual payment of the principal of and premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all of the Notes, the due and punctual payment or delivery of any Settlement Amount due upon conversion of the Notes and the due and punctual performance of all of the covenants and conditions of this Indenture and the other Indenture Documents to be performed by the Company under this Indenture and the other Indenture Documents, such Successor Company shall succeed to and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Company under this Indenture, with the same effect as if it had been named herein as the party of the first part; provided, however, that in the case of a sale, assignment, conveyance, transfer, lease or other disposition to one or more of its Subsidiaries of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Company, the Notes will remain convertible based on the Settlement Amount, in accordance with Section 4.03, but subject to adjustment (if any) in accordance with Section 4.06. Such Successor Company thereupon may cause to be signed, and may issue either in its own name or in the name of the Company any or all of the Notes issuable hereunder which theretofore shall not have been signed by the Company and delivered to the Trustee; and, upon the order of such Successor Company instead of the Company and subject to all the terms, conditions and limitations in this Indenture prescribed, the Trustee shall authenticate and shall deliver, or cause to be authenticated and delivered, any Notes that previously shall have been signed and delivered by the Officers of the Company to the Trustee for authentication, and any Notes that such Successor Company thereafter shall cause to be signed and delivered to the Trustee for that purpose.

Section 9.03         Officer’s Certificate and Opinion of Counsel to Be Given to Trustee.

In the case of any such consolidation, merger, binding share exchange, sale, assignment, conveyance, transfer, lease or other disposition pursuant to Section 9.01, the Trustee shall receive an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that any such consolidation, merger, binding share exchange, sale, assignment, conveyance, transfer, lease or other disposition and any such assumption and, if a supplemental indenture, joinder, amendment or other documentation is required in connection with such transaction, such supplemental indenture, joinder, amendment or other documentation, complies with the provisions of this Indenture and an Opinion of Counsel stating that any such supplemental indenture, joinder, amendment or other documentation is the valid, binding and enforceable obligation of the Successor Company.

ARTICLE 10
REDEMPTIONS AND PURCHASES

Section 10.01       Optional Redemption at Election of Company.

Subject to the provisions of this Section 10.01, at any time after June 6, 2024, the Company may deliver a notice to the Holders (with a copy to the Trustee) (an “Optional Redemption Notice” and the date such notice is deemed delivered hereunder, the “Optional Redemption Notice Date”) of its irrevocable election to redeem some or all of the then outstanding principal amount of the Notes in an amount equal to the Optional Redemption Amount on the 30th Trading Day following the Optional Redemption Notice Date (such date, the “Optional Redemption Date”, such 30 Trading Day period, the “Optional Redemption Period” and such redemption, the “Optional Redemption”) in cash. Each Optional Redemption Notice shall be irrevocable and specify:

(a)           the Optional Redemption Date;

(b)           the Optional Redemption Amount;

(c)           that, on the Optional Redemption Date, the Optional Redemption Amount will become due and payable upon each Note to be redeemed;

(d)           that Notes called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect the Optional Redemption Amount;

(e)           the place or places where such Notes are to be surrendered for payment of the Optional Redemption Amount;

(f)            the paragraph or subparagraph of this Indenture pursuant to which the Notes are being called for redemption

(g)           with respect to Global Notes, that Holders may surrender their Notes for conversion at any time prior to the Close of Business on the second Trading Day immediately preceding the Optional Redemption Date and, with respect to Physical Notes, that Holders may surrender their Notes for conversion at any time prior to the Close of Business on the third Trading Date immediately preceding the Optional Redemption Date;

(h)           the CUSIP, ISIN, or other similar numbers, if any, assigned to such Notes and that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP or ISIN number, if any, listed in such notice or printed on the Notes; and

(i)            in case any physical Note is to be redeemed in part only, the portion of the principal amount thereof to be redeemed on and after the Optional Redemption Date, upon surrender of such Note, a new Note in principal amount equal to the unredeemed potion thereof shall be issued.

The Optional Redemption Notice, if delivered in the manner herein provided, shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether or not the Holder receives such notice. In any case, failure to give such Optional Redemption Notice by mail or any defect in the Redemption Notice to the Holder of any Note designated for redemption as a whole or in part shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other Note.

Upon the Company’s written request in an Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Trustee at least 5 Business Days prior to the requested date of delivery (or such shorter period as shall be satisfactory to the Trustee), the Trustee will deliver the Optional Redemption Notice to the Holders in the name of and at the expense of the Company.

If fewer than all of the outstanding Notes are to be redeemed, in the case of a Global Note, the Notes or portions thereof to be redeemed (in principal amounts of $1.00 or multiples thereof) shall be selected according to the applicable procedures of the Depositary, or, in the case of Physical Notes, the Notes to be redeemed (in principal amounts of at least $1.00 or $1.00 multiples in excess thereof) shall, upon written request of the Company, be selected by the Trustee by lot or by any other method the Trustee in its sole discretion deems fair and appropriate. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the percentage of Global Notes and Physical Notes to be redeemed. The Trustee will notify the Company promptly of the Notes or portions of the Notes to be called for redemption. If any Note selected for partial redemption is submitted for conversion after such selection, the portion of the Note submitted for conversion shall be deemed (so far as may be possible) to be the portion selected for redemption (and the Optional Redemption Amount due will be reduced accordingly), subject, in the case of Notes represented by a Global Note, to the Depositary’s applicable procedures.

Section 10.02       Optional Purchase at the Election of the Holders.

(a)           Subject to the provisions of this Section 10.02, at any time while the Notes are outstanding, before the Close of Business on the second Business Day immediately before the related Holder Optional Purchase Date (or such later time as may be required by law), each Holder, severally or jointly with the other Holders, as elected in the sole discretion of such Holder, may deliver a notice to the Paying Agent (a “Holder Optional Purchase Notice” and the date such notice is deemed delivered hereunder, the “Holder Optional Purchase Notice Date”) of its election to require the Company to purchase some or all of the then outstanding principal amount of such Holder’s Notes for cash in an amount equal to 101% of the principal amount of the Notes to be purchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereof (the “Fundamental Change Purchase Price”) on the Holder Optional Purchase Date (such required purchase by the Company, the “Holder Optional Purchase”). The Holder Optional Purchase Amount is payable in full on the Holder Optional Purchase Date. With respect to each Holder Optional Purchase, the Company covenants and agrees that it will (i) give each Holder the Fundamental Change Company Notice required by Section 10.02(b) and (ii) honor all Conversion Notices tendered from the time of delivery of the Holder Optional Purchase Notice through the date on which all amounts owing thereon are due and paid in full with respect to the Notes subject to a Holder Optional Purchase. Notwithstanding the foregoing, there shall be no purchase of any Notes pursuant to this Section 10.02 if the principal amount of the Notes has been accelerated, and such acceleration has not been rescinded, on or prior to the Fundamental Change Purchase Date (except in the case of an acceleration resulting from a Default by the Company in the payment of the Fundamental Change Purchase Price with respect to such Notes). In the event the principal amount of the Notes is accelerated following delivery of a Holder Optional Purchase Notice (except in the case of an acceleration resulting from a Default by the Company in the payment of the Holder Optional Purchase Amount with respect to such Notes), the Company shall promptly (i) return to the respective Holders thereof any Physical Notes tendered to it or (ii) effect appropriate book-entry transfers to the respective beneficial holders thereof any beneficial interests in a Global Note tendered to it in compliance with the Applicable Procedures, in which case, upon such return or transfer, as the case may be, the Holder Optional Purchase Notice with respect thereto shall be deemed to have been withdrawn.

(b)           On or before the 5th Business Day after the occurrence of a Fundamental Change, the Company shall provide to the Holders, the Trustee, the Conversion Agent, and any Paying Agent appointed for purposes of such Holder Optional Purchase right, a written notice (the "Fundamental Change Company Notice") of the occurrence of such Fundamental Change and of the purchase right at the option of the Holders arising as a result thereof. Simultaneously with providing such Fundamental Change Company Notice, the Company shall issue a press release announcing the occurrence of such Fundamental Change and make the press release available on the Company's website. Each Fundamental Change Company Notice shall specify

(i)            the events causing the Fundamental Change;

(ii)           the effective date of the Fundamental Change;

(iii)          information about the Holder’s right to convert the Notes;

(iv)          information about the Holder’s right to require the Company to purchase the Notes, including the Holder Optional Purchase Date for such Fundamental Change;

(v)           the last date on which a Holder of Notes may exercise the purchase right pursuant to this Section 10.02 (the “Fundamental Change Expiration Time”);

(vi)          the name and address of the Paying Agent and Conversion Agent;

(vii)         consideration being paid by the Company in the Fundamental Change and the Fundamental Change Purchase Price for such Holder’s Notes;

(viii)        the applicable Conversion Rate and any adjustments to the applicable Conversion Rate resulting from the Fundamental Change;

(ix)          that Notes for which a Holder Optional Purchase Notice has been duly tendered and not duly withdrawn must be delivered to the Paying Agent for the Holder thereof to be entitled to receive the Fundamental Change Purchase Price;

(x)            if applicable, that the Notes with respect to which a Holder Optional Purchase Notice has been delivered by a Holder may be converted only if the Holder withdraws the Holder Optional Purchase Notice in accordance with Section 10.02(e);

(xi)           the procedures required for exercise of the purchase option upon the Fundamental Change, including that the Holder must exercise the purchase option prior to the Fundamental Change Expiration Time and the procedures for submitting and withdrawing a Holder Optional Purchase Notice; and

(xii)         that the Holder shall have the right to withdraw any Notes surrendered for purchase prior to the Fundamental Change Expiration Time and the procedures required for withdrawal of any such exercise as described in 10.02(f).

(c)           No failure of the Company to give the foregoing notices and no defect therein shall limit a Holder’s repurchase rights or affect the validity of the proceedings for the repurchase of the Notes pursuant to this Section 10.02.

(d)           The Holder Optional Purchase Notice in respect of any Notes to be purchased shall state:

(i)            if certificated, the certificate numbers of such Holder’s Notes;

(ii)           the portion of the principal amount of such Notes to be purchased, which must be such that the principal amount not purchased equals $1.00 or an integral multiple of $1.00; and

(iii)          that such Notes are to be purchased by the Company pursuant to the applicable provisions of the Notes.

(e)           To exercise its Holder Optional Purchase right for a Note following a Fundamental Change, the Holder thereof must deliver to the Paying Agent:

(i)            before the Close of Business on the second Business Day immediately before the related Holder Optional Purchase Date (or such later time as may be required by law), a duly completed, written Holder Optional Purchase Notice with respect to such Note; and

(ii)           such Note, duly endorsed for transfer (if such Note is a Physical Note) or by book-entry transfer (if such Note is a Global Note).

(iii)          The Paying Agent will promptly deliver to the Company a copy of each Holder Optional Purchase Notice that it receives.

(f)            A Holder Optional Purchase Notice may be withdrawn (in whole or in part) by means of a written notice of withdrawal delivered to the Company in accordance with the Fundamental Change Company Notice, as applicable, at any time prior to the Fundamental Change Expiration Time, as applicable, specifying:

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

(ii)           if certificated, the certificate numbers of the withdrawn Notes; and

(iii)          the principal amount, if any, of each Note that remains subject to the Holder Optional Purchase Notice, which must be such that the principal amount of such Holder’s Notes not purchased equals $1.00 or an integral multiple of $1.00;

provided, however, that if the Notes are Global Notes, the notice must comply with the Applicable Procedures. The Company shall cause the return to the respective Holders thereof any Physical Notes with respect to which a Holder Optional Purchase Notice has been withdrawn in compliance with the provisions of this Section 10.02(f). Upon receipt of any such withdrawal notice with respect to a Note (or any portion thereof), the Paying Agent will (x) promptly deliver a copy of such withdrawal notice to the Company; and (y) if such Note is surrendered to the Paying Agent, cause such Note (or such portion thereof in accordance with Section 10.02(f), treating such Note as having been then surrendered for partial repurchase in the amount set forth in such withdrawal notice as remaining subject to repurchase) to be returned to the Holder thereof (or, if applicable with respect to any Global Note, cancel any instructions for book-entry transfer to the Company, the Trustee or the Paying Agent of the applicable beneficial interest in such Note in accordance with the Depositary Procedures).

(g)           For purposes of this Section 10.02, the Paying Agent may be any agent, depositary, tender agent, paying agent or other agent appointed by the Company to accomplish the purposes set forth herein.

(h)           To the extent applicable, the Company will comply, in all material respects, with all federal and state securities laws in connection with a Holder Optional Purchase (including complying with Rules 13e-4 and 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and filing any required Schedule TO, to the extent applicable) so as to permit effecting such Holder Optional Purchase in the manner set forth in the Indenture; provided, however, that, to the extent that the Company’s obligations pursuant to this Section 10.02 conflict with any law or regulation that is applicable to the Company and enacted after the Issue Date, the Company’s compliance with such law or regulation will not be considered to be a Default of such obligations.

Section 10.03       Mandatory Purchase at the Election of the Holders

(a)           Subject to the provisions of this Section 10.03, at any time while the Notes are outstanding, before the Close of Business on the second Business Day immediately before the related Mandatory Purchase Date (or such later time as may be required by law), each Holder, severally or jointly with the other Holders, as elected in the sole discretion of such Holder, may deliver a notice to the Paying Agent (a “Mandatory Purchase Notice” and the date such notice is deemed delivered hereunder, the “Mandatory Purchase Notice Date”) of its election to require the Company to use the Mandatory Purchase Proceeds from such Repayment Event to purchase an amount of the then outstanding principal amount of such Holder’s Notes in cash in an amount equal to the Mandatory Purchase Amount for such Holder, plus all accrued interest on such principal being so purchased by the Company plus the Make-Whole Amount (such required purchase by the Company, the “Mandatory Purchase”). The Mandatory Purchase Amount is payable in full on the Mandatory Purchase Date. With respect to each Mandatory Purchase, the Company covenants and agrees that it will (i) give each Holder the Repayment Event Notice required by Section 10.03(b) and (ii) honor all Mandatory Purchase Notices tendered from the time of delivery of the Mandatory Purchase Notice through the date on which all amounts owing thereon are due and paid in full with respect to the Notes subject to a Mandatory Purchase. Notwithstanding the foregoing, there shall be no purchase of any Notes pursuant to this Section 10.03 if the principal amount of the Notes has been accelerated, and such acceleration has not been rescinded, on or prior to the Mandatory Purchase Date (except in the case of an acceleration resulting from a Default by the Company in the payment of the Mandatory Purchase Amount with respect to such Notes). In the event the principal amount of the Notes is accelerated following delivery of a Mandatory Purchase Notice Notice (except in the case of an acceleration resulting from a Default by the Company in the payment of the Mandatory Purchase Amount with respect to such Notes), the Company shall promptly (i) return to the respective Holders thereof any Physical Notes tendered to it or (ii) effect appropriate book-entry transfers to the respective beneficial holders thereof any beneficial interests in a Global Note tendered to it in compliance with the Applicable Procedures, in which case, upon such return or transfer, as the case may be, the Mandatory Purchase Notice with respect thereto shall be deemed to have been withdrawn.

(b)           On or before the 10th Business Day after the occurrence of a Repayment Event (the “Repayment Event Notice Date”), the Company shall provide to the Holders, the Trustee, and any Paying Agent appointed for purposes of such Mandatory Purchase right, a written notice (the "Repayment Event Notice") of the occurrence of such Repayment Event and of the purchase right at the option of the Holders arising as a result thereof. Simultaneously with providing such Repayment Event Notice, the Company shall issue a press release announcing the occurrence of such Repayment Event and make the press release available on the Company's website. Each Repayment Event Notice shall specify

(i)            the events causing the Repayment Event;

(ii)           the effective date of the Repayment Event;

(iii)          information about the Holder’s right to require the Company to purchase the Notes, including the Mandatory Purchase Date for such Repayment Event;

(iv)          the last date on which a Holder of Notes may exercise the purchase right pursuant to this Section 10.03 (the “Mandatory Purchase Termination Date”);

(v)           the name and address of the Paying Agent;

(vi)          the Mandatory Purchase Amount for such Hoxxxx’s Notes;

(vii)         that Notes for which a Mandatory Purchase Notice has been duly tendered and not duly withdrawn must be delivered to the Paying Agent for the Holder thereof to be entitled to receive the Mandatory Purchase Amount;

(viii)        the procedures required for exercise of the purchase option upon the Repayment Event, including that the Holder must exercise the purchase option prior to the Mandatory Purchase Termination Date and the procedures for submitting and withdrawing a Mandatory Purchase Notice; and

(ix)          that the Holder shall have the right to withdraw any Notes surrendered for purchase prior to the Mandatory Purchase Termination Date and the procedures required for withdrawal of any such exercise as described in 10.03(f).

(d)           The Mandatory Purchase Notice in respect of any Notes to be purchased shall state:

(i)            if certificated, the certificate numbers of such Holder’s Notes;

(iii)          that such Notes are to be purchased by the Company pursuant to the applicable provisions of the Notes.

(e)            To exercise its Mandatory Purchase right for a Note following a Repayment Event, the Holder thereof must deliver to the Paying Agent:

(i)            before the Close of Business on the second Business Day immediately before the related Mandatory Purchase Date (or such later time as may be required by law), a duly completed, written Mandatory Purchase Notice with respect to such Note; and

(ii)           such Note, duly endorsed for transfer (if such Note is a Physical Note) or by book-entry transfer (if such Note is a Global Note).

(iii)          The Paying Agent will promptly deliver to the Company a copy of each Mandatory Purchase Notice that it receives.

(f)            A Mandatory Purchase Notice may be withdrawn (in whole or in part) by means of a written notice of withdrawal delivered to the Company in accordance with the Repayment Event Notice, as applicable, at any time prior to the Mandatory Purchase Termination Date, as applicable, specifying:

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

(ii)           if certificated, the certificate numbers of the withdrawn Notes; and

(iii)          the principal amount, if any, of each Note that remains subject to the Holder Mandatory Purchase Notice, which must be such that the principal amount of such Holder’s Notes not purchased equals $1.00 or an integral multiple of $1.00;

provided, however, that if the Notes are Global Notes, the notice must comply with the Applicable Procedures. The Company shall cause the return to the respective Holders thereof any Physical Notes with respect to which a Mandatory Purchase Notice has been withdrawn in compliance with the provisions of this Section 10.03(f). Upon receipt of any such withdrawal notice with respect to a Note (or any portion thereof), the Paying Agent will (x) promptly deliver a copy of such withdrawal notice to the Company; and (y) if such Note is surrendered to the Paying Agent, cause such Note (or such portion thereof in accordance with Section 10.02(f), treating such Note as having been then surrendered for partial repurchase in the amount set forth in such withdrawal notice as remaining subject to repurchase) to be returned to the Holder thereof (or, if applicable with respect to any Global Note, cancel any instructions for book-entry transfer to the Company, the Trustee or the Paying Agent of the applicable beneficial interest in such Note in accordance with the Depositary Procedures).

(g)           For purposes of this Section 10.03, the Paying Agent may be any agent, depositary, tender agent, paying agent or other agent appointed by the Company to accomplish the purposes set forth herein.

(h)           To the extent applicable, the Company will comply, in all material respects, with all federal and state securities laws in connection with a Mandatory Purchase (including complying with Rules 13e-4 and 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and filing any required Schedule TO, to the extent applicable) so as to permit effecting such Mandatory Purchase in the manner set forth in the Indenture; provided, however, that, to the extent that the Company’s obligations pursuant to this Section 10.03 conflict with any law or regulation that is applicable to the Company and enacted after the Issue Date, the Company’s compliance with such law or regulation will not be considered to be a Default of such obligations.

Section 10.04       Optional Redemption Procedure.

If any Optional Redemption Notice has been given in respect of the Notes in accordance with Section 10.01, the Notes shall become due and payable on the Optional Redemption Date at the place or places stated in the Optional Redemption Notice at the Optional Redemption Amount. On presentation and surrender of the Notes at the place or places stated in the Optional Redemption Notice, the Notes shall be paid and redeemed by the Company at the Optional Redemption Amount.

Prior to the open of business on the Optional Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit with the Trustee (or other Paying Agent appointed by the Company) or, if the Company or a subsidiary of the Company is acting as the Paying Agent, shall segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 5.03(b), an amount of cash (in immediately available funds if deposited on the Optional Redemption Date) sufficient to pay the Optional Redemption Amount of all the Notes to be redeemed on such Redemption Date. Subject to receipt of funds by the Paying Agent, payment for the Notes to be redeemed shall be made on the Optional Redemption Date for such Notes. The Trustee (or other Paying Agent appointed by the Company) shall, promptly after such payment and upon written demand of the Company, return to the Company any funds in excess of the Redemption Price.

If any portion of the payment pursuant to an Optional Redemption shall not be paid by the Company in cash by the applicable due date, interest shall accrue thereon at an interest rate equal to the lesser of 18% per annum or the maximum rate permitted by applicable law until such amount is paid in full. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 10, the Company’s determination to make an Optional Redemption under Section 10.01 shall be applied by lot among the Holders (and in the case of any Global Notes, redeemed in accordance with the Depositary’s applicable procedures). The Holders may elect to convert the outstanding principal amount of the Notes pursuant to Section 4 prior to, in case of Global Notes, the Close of Business on the second Trading Day immediately preceding the Optional Redemption Date, and, with respect to Physical Notes, that Holders may surrender their Notes for conversion at any time prior to the Close of Business on the third Trading Date immediately preceding the Optional Redemption Date for any redemption under this Section 10 by the delivery of a Conversion Notice to the Company and the Conversion Agent.

Section 10.05       Purchase Procedures Pursuant to Holder Optional Purchase or Mandatory Purchase.

The payment of cash to a Holder pursuant to a Holder Optional Purchase or a Mandatory Purchase shall be payable to the applicable Holder on the later of (i) each Holder Optional Purchase Date or Mandatory Purchase Date and (ii) the date (x) such Note is delivered to the Paying Agent (in the case of a Physical Note) or (y) the Applicable Procedures relating to the repurchase, and the delivery to the Paying Agent, of such Hoxxxx’s beneficial interest in such Note to be repurchased are complied with (in the case of a Global Note). If any portion of the payment due pursuant to a Holder Optional Purchase or Mandatory Purchase shall not be paid by the Company by the applicable due date, interest shall accrue thereon (including, to the extent allowed by law, overdue interest and any Make-Whole Amount) at an interest rate equal to the lesser of 18% per annum or the maximum rate permitted by applicable law until such amount is paid in full. Any Holder may elect to convert the outstanding principal amount of such Holder’s Notes pursuant to this Indenture prior to actual payment in cash for any purchase by the Company under Sections 10.02 or 10.03 on the Holder Optional Purchase Date or the Mandatory Purchase Date, as applicable, by delivery of a Conversion Notice. Upon receipt of payment for a Holder Optional Purchase or Mandatory Purchase, the Company shall: (i) if the Notes purchased are Physical Notes, cause such Physical Notes to be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation and (ii) if the Notes purchased are Global Notes, cause the beneficial interest in such Global Notes to be cancelled in compliance with the Applicable Procedures. Upon surrender, the respective Notes shall no longer be considered outstanding under the Indenture.

ARTICLE 11
THE TRUSTEE

Section 11.01       Duties and Responsibilities of Trustee.

(a)           In case an Event of Default has occurred (which has not been cured or waived), the Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture and use the same degree of care in its exercise as a prudent person would use in the conduct of his or her own affairs.

(b)           Prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default and after the curing or waiving of all Events of Default which may have occurred:

(i)            the duties and obligations of the Trustee shall be determined solely by the express provisions of this Indenture and applicable law, and the Trustee shall not be liable except for the performance of such duties and obligations as are specifically set forth in this Indenture and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee; and

(ii)            in the absence of gross negligence on the part of the Trustee, the Trustee may conclusively rely as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon any certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture; but, in the case of any such certificates or opinions which by any provisions 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 need not confirm or investigate the accuracy of any mathematical calculations or other facts stated therein).

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

(i)            this subsection (c) does not limit the effect of this Section 11.01;

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

(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 written direction of the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Notes at the time Outstanding determined as provided in Section 1.03 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;

(d)           Whether or not therein 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 11.01 and Section 11.02.

(e)           The Trustee shall not be liable in respect of any payment (as to the correctness or calculation of amount, entitlement to receive or any other matters relating to payment) or notice effected by the Company or any Paying Agent or any records maintained by any co-Registrar with respect to the Notes.

(f)            If any party fails to deliver a notice relating to an event the fact of which, pursuant to this Indenture, requires notice to be sent to the Trustee, the Trustee may conclusively rely on its failure to receive such notice as reason to act as if no such event occurred.

(g)            None of the provisions contained in 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 or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers if there is reasonable ground for believing that the repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it.

Section 11.02       Rights of the Trustee.

(a)           The Trustee may conclusively rely and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, judgment, bond, debenture, note, coupon or other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document (whether in its original, electronic or facsimile form) believed by it in good faith to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties, not only as to due execution, validity and effectiveness, but also as to the truth and accuracy of any information contained therein.

(b)           Any request, direction, order or demand of the Company mentioned herein shall be sufficiently evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate (unless other evidence in respect thereof be herein specifically prescribed); and any resolution of the Board of Directors may be evidenced to the Trustee by a Board Resolution.

(c)           The Trustee may consult with counsel of its own selection and any advice or Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with such advice or Opinion of Counsel.

(d)           The Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request, order or direction of any of the Holders pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture (including upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default), unless such Holders shall have offered (and if requested, provided) to the Trustee indemnity or security satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss, expenses and liabilities which may be incurred therein or thereby.

(e)           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, judgment, bond, debenture other evidence of indebtedness 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 (at the reasonable expense of the Company and shall incur no liability of any kind by reason of such inquiry or investigation).

(f)            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 by it with due care hereunder.

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

(h)           In no event shall the Trustee be responsible or liable for special, indirect, consequential, incidental or punitive loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, loss of profit) irrespective of whether the Trustee has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.

(i)            The Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice of any Default or Event of Default unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge thereof or unless written notice of any event which is in fact such a default is received by a Responsible Officer of the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and such notice references the Notes and the Indenture.

(j)            The rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee, including, without limitation, its right to be indemnified, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder, the Collateral Agent and each Agent, custodian and other Person employed to act hereunder.

(k)           The Trustee shall not be required to give any bond or surety in respect of the performance of its powers and duties hereunder.

(l)            The Trustee may request that the Company deliver an Officer’s Certificate setting forth the names of individuals and/or titles of officers authorized at such time to take specified actions pursuant to this Indenture.

(m)            The Collateral Agent is expressly authorized to execute and deliver the Intercreditor Agreement in its capacity as such.

(n)            The permissive authorizations, entitlements, powers and rights granted to the Trustee in this Indenture shall not be construed as duties.

Section 11.03       Trustee’s Disclaimer.

The recitals contained herein and in the Notes (except in the Trustee’s certificate of authentication) shall be taken as the statements of the Company, and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for the correctness of the same. The Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture, the Subsidiary Guarantees, the Notes or any other Transaction Document. The Trustee shall not be accountable for the use or application by the Company of any Notes or the proceeds of any Notes authenticated and delivered by the Trustee under this Indenture and the Trustee shall not be responsible for any statement of the Company in this Indenture or in any document issued in connection with the sale of the Notes.

Section 11.04       Trustee or Agents May Own Notes.

The Trustee or any Agent, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Notes with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee or Agent.

Section 11.05       Monies to be Held in Trust.

Subject to the provisions of Section 7.02, all monies and properties received by the Trustee shall, until used or applied as herein provided, be held in trust for the purposes for which they were received. 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 or the investment of any money received by it hereunder except as may be agreed in writing from time to time by the Company and the Trustee.

Section 11.06       Compensation and Expenses of Trustee.

The Company covenants and agrees to pay to the Trustee, Agent and Collateral Agent from time to time, and the Trustee, Agent and Collateral Agent shall be entitled to, such compensation for all services rendered by it hereunder in any capacity (which shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust) as mutually agreed to from time to time in writing between the Company and the Trustee, Agent and Collateral Agent, and the Company will pay or reimburse the Trustee, Agent and Collateral Agent upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances reasonably incurred or made by the Trustee, Agent and Collateral Agent in accordance with any of the provisions of this Indenture or any other Transaction Document (including the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its counsel and of all Persons not regularly in its employ) except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may arise from its own gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a final order of a court of competent jurisdiction.

The Company also covenants to indemnify each of the Trustee, Collateral Agent and the Agents (and their respective officers, directors and employees), in any capacity under this Indenture and their respective agents for, and to hold each of them harmless from and against, any and all loss, liability, action, suit, claim, damage, cost or expense incurred without gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a final order of a court of competent jurisdiction on its own part and arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of this trust and the performance of its duties and/or the exercise of its rights hereunder or in any other capacity hereunder or under any Transaction Document, including the costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) of defending itself against any claim (whether asserted by the Company, a Holder or any other Person) of liability in the premises, including those incurred with respect to enforcement of its right to indemnity hereunder. The Trustee, Collateral Agent and the Agents shall notify the Company promptly of any third party claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Trustee, Collateral Agent and the Agents to so notify the Company shall not relieve the Company of its obligations hereunder. The Company shall defend such claim and the Trustee, Collateral Agent and the Agents shall cooperate in the defense. The Trustee, Collateral Agent and the Agents may have separate counsel and the Company shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel. The Company need not pay for any settlement made without its consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld).

The obligations of the Company under this Section 11.06 to compensate or indemnify the Trustee, Collateral Agent and the Agents and to pay or reimburse the Trustee for expenses, disbursements and advances shall be secured by a first lien prior to that of the Notes upon all property and funds held or collected by the Trustee or Collateral Agent as such, except funds held in trust for the benefit of the Holders of particular Notes. The obligation of the Company under this Section 11.06 shall survive the payment of the Notes, the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture and/or the resignation or removal of the Trustee, Agent and the Collateral Agent.

When the Trustee, any Agent, and any of their respective agents incur expenses or render services after an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(i) and 6.01(j) with respect to the Company occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the services are intended to constitute administrative expenses for purposes of priority under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws.

Section 11.07       Officer’s Certificate or Opinion of Counsel as Evidence.

Subject to Section 11.01, whenever in the administration of the provisions of this Indenture the Trustee shall deem it necessary or desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking or omitting any action hereunder, such matter (unless other evidence in respect thereof be herein specifically prescribed) may be deemed to be conclusively proved and established by an Officer’s Certificate and/or Opinion of Counsel delivered to the Trustee.

Section 11.08       Conflicting Interests of Trustee.

If the Trustee has or shall acquire a conflicting interest within the meaning of the Trust Indenture Act, the Trustee shall either eliminate such interest or resign, to the extent and in the manner provided by, and subject to the provisions of, this Indenture.

Section 11.09       Eligibility of Trustee.

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 and has a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 (or if such Person is a member of a bank holding company system, its bank holding company shall have a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000). If such Person publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of any supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section 11.09 the combined capital and surplus of such Person 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 11.09, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect hereinafter specified in this Article.

Section 11.10       Resignation or Removal of Trustee.

(a)           The Trustee may at any time resign by giving 30 days’ prior written notice of such resignation to the Company and to the Holders of Notes. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Company shall promptly appoint a successor trustee by written instrument, in duplicate, executed by order of the Board of Directors, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the resigning Trustee and one copy to the successor trustee. If no successor trustee shall have been so appointed and have accepted appointment thirty (30) days after such notice of resignation is given to the Company and the Holders, the resigning Trustee may, upon ten (10) Business Days’ notice to the Company and the Holders may petition, at the expense of the Company, any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor trustee, or, if any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Note or Notes for at least six (6) months may, subject to the provisions of Section 6.15, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any such court for the appointment of a successor trustee. Such court may thereupon, after such notice, if any, as it may deem proper and prescribe, appoint a successor trustee.

(b)           In case at any time any of the following shall occur:

(i)            the Trustee shall fail to comply with Section 11.08 after written request therefor by the Company or by any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Note or Notes for at least six (6) months; or

(ii)           the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of Section 11.09 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Company or by any such Holder; or

(iii)          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 purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation;

then, in any such case, the Company may remove the Trustee by 30 days’ written notice and appoint a successor trustee by written instrument, in duplicate, executed by order of the Board of Directors, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the Trustee so removed and one copy to the successor trustee, or, subject to the provisions of Section 6.15, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Note or Notes for at least six (6) 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; provided, however, that if no successor Trustee shall have been appointed and have accepted appointment thirty (30) days after either the Company or the Holders has removed the Trustee, the Trustee so removed may petition at the Company’s expense any court of competent jurisdiction for an appointment of a successor trustee. Such court may thereupon, after such notice, if any, as it may deem proper and prescribe, remove the Trustee and appoint a successor trustee.

(c)           The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time Outstanding may at any time remove the Trustee upon 30 days’ prior written notice and nominate a successor trustee which shall be deemed appointed as successor trustee unless, within ten (10) days after notice to the Company of such nomination, the Company objects thereto, in which case the Trustee so removed or any Holder, or if such Trustee so removed or any Holder fails to act, the Company, upon the terms and conditions and otherwise as in Section 11.10(a) provided, may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for an appointment of a successor trustee.

(d)           Any resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor trustee pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section 11.10 shall become effective upon acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee as provided in Section 11.11.

Section 11.11       Acceptance by Successor Trustee.

Any successor trustee appointed as provided in Section 11.10 shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company and to its predecessor trustee an instrument accepting such appointment hereunder, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the predecessor trustee shall become effective and such successor trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, duties and obligations of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as trustee herein; but, nevertheless, on the written request of the Company or of the successor trustee, the trustee ceasing to act shall, upon payment of any amount then due it pursuant to the provisions of Section 11.06, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor trustee all the rights and powers of the trustee so ceasing to act. Upon request of any such successor trustee, the Company shall execute any and all instruments in writing for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor trustee all such rights and powers. Any trustee ceasing to act shall, nevertheless, retain a lien upon all property and funds held or collected by such trustee as such, except for funds held in trust for the benefit of Holders of particular Notes, to secure any amounts then due it pursuant to the provisions of Section 11.06.

No successor trustee shall accept appointment as provided in this Section 11.11 unless, at the time of such acceptance, such successor trustee shall be qualified under the provisions of Section 11.08 and be eligible under the provisions of Section 11.09.

Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor trustee as provided in this Section 11.11, the Company (or the former trustee, at the written direction of the Company) shall give or cause to be given notice of the succession of such trustee hereunder to the Holders of Notes in accordance with Section 13.08(c). If the Company fails to give such notice within ten (10) days after acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee, the successor trustee shall cause such notice to be given at the expense of the Company.

Section 11.12       Succession by Xxxxxx, Etc.

Any corporation into which the Trustee may be merged or exchanged or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any sale, merger, exchange 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 any trust created by this Indenture), shall be the successor to the Trustee hereunder without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, provided that in the case of any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Trustee, such corporation shall be qualified under the provisions of Section 11.08 and eligible under the provisions of Section 11.09.

In case at the time such successor to the Trustee shall succeed to the trusts created by this Indenture, any of the Notes shall have been authenticated but not delivered, any such successor to the Trustee may adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor trustee or authenticating agent appointed by such predecessor trustee, and deliver such Notes so authenticated; and in case at that time any of the Notes shall not have been authenticated, any successor to the Trustee or any authenticating agent appointed by such successor trustee may authenticate such Notes in the name of the successor trustee; and in all such cases such certificates shall have the full force that is provided in the Notes or in this Indenture; provided, however, that the right to adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor Trustee or authenticate Notes in the name of any predecessor Trustee shall apply only to its successor or successors by merger, exchange or consolidation.

Section 11.13       Preferential Collection of Claims.

To the extent that this Indenture has been qualified under the Trust Indenture Act, if and when the Trustee shall be or become a creditor of the Company (or any other obligor upon the Notes), the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act regarding the collection of the claims against the Company (or any such other obligor)

Section 11.14       Trustee’s Application for Instructions from the Company.

The Trustee shall not be liable for any action taken by, or omission of, the Trustee in accordance with a proposal included in such application on or after the date specified in such application (which date shall not be less than three (3) Business Days after the date any officer of the Company actually receives such application, unless any such Officer shall have consented in writing to any earlier date) unless prior to taking any such action (or the effective date in the case of an omission), the Trustee shall have received written instructions in response to such application specifying the action to be taken or omitted.

SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEES

Section 12.01       Subsidiary Guarantees.

(a)           Subject to this Article 12, each of the Subsidiary Guarantors, jointly and severally, fully and unconditionally, guarantees, on a senior unsecured basis (or, with respect to each Subsidiary Guarantor that is a Grantor Subsidiary, a senior secured basis), subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, to the Collateral Agent on behalf of each Holder of a Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and to the Trustee and Collateral Agent and its successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity and enforceability of this Indenture, the Notes or the obligations of the Company hereunder or thereunder, that: (i) the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes will be promptly paid in full when due, whether at the stated Maturity Date, by acceleration, redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes, if any, if lawful (subject in all cases to any applicable grace period provided herein), and all other monetary obligations of the Company to the Holders or the Trustee or Collateral Agent hereunder or thereunder will be promptly paid in full or performed, all in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; and (ii) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Notes or any of such other obligations, that same will be promptly paid in full when due or performed in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise. Failing payment when due of any amount so guaranteed or any performance so guaranteed for whatever reason, the Subsidiary Guarantors shall be jointly and severally obligated to pay the same immediately. Each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that this is a guarantee of payment and not a guarantee of collection.

(b)           The Subsidiary Guarantors agree that, to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law, their obligations hereunder shall be unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Notes or this Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder of the Notes with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Company, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a Subsidiary Guarantor. Subject to Section 6.06, each Subsidiary Guarantor waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company, any right to require a proceeding first against the Company, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and covenant that this Subsidiary Guarantee shall not be discharged except by complete performance of the obligations contained in the Notes and this Indenture.

(c)           If any Holder, Collateral Agent or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors or any custodian, trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to either of the Company or the Subsidiary Guarantors, any amount paid by either to the Trustee, Collateral Agent or such Holder, this Subsidiary Guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged, shall be reinstated in full force and effect.

(d)           Each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that it shall not be entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of any obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all obligations guaranteed hereby. Each Subsidiary Guarantor further agrees that, as between the Subsidiary Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Holders, Collateral Agent and the Trustee, on the other hand, (x) the maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article Nine for the purposes of this Subsidiary Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby, and (y) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article 6, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Subsidiary Guarantors for the purpose of this Subsidiary Guarantee. Each Subsidiary Guarantor that makes a payment or distribution under its Subsidiary Guarantee shall have the right to seek contribution from any non-paying Subsidiary Guarantor, in a pro rata amount based on the net assets of each Subsidiary Guarantor determined in accordance with GAAP as in effect from time to time, so long as the exercise of such right does not impair the rights of the Holders under the Subsidiary Guarantee.

(e)            In respect to its obligations under its Subsidiary Guarantee, each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees to be bound to, and hereby covenants, with respect to itself, the covenant set forth in Section 6.16.

Section 12.02       Reserved.

Section 12.03       Limitation on Subsidiary Guarantor Liability.

Each Subsidiary Guarantor, and by its acceptance of Notes, each Holder, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the Subsidiary Guarantee of such Subsidiary Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar Federal or state law to the extent applicable to any Subsidiary Guarantee. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Trustee, the Collateral Agent, the Holders and the Subsidiary Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor will be limited to the maximum amount which, after giving effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Subsidiary Guarantor, and after giving effect to any collections from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Subsidiary Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Subsidiary Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantee or pursuant to its contribution obligations under this Article 12, will result in the obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under Federal or state law.

Section 12.04       Execution and Delivery of Notation of Guarantee.

(a)           To evidence its Subsidiary Guarantee set forth in Section 12.01, with respect to the Notes issued on the Issue Date, a Subsidiary Guarantor shall execute a notation of such Subsidiary Guarantee substantially in the form included in Exhibit D hereto endorsed by an Officer of such Subsidiary Guarantor by manual, electronic or facsimile signature on each Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee.

(b)           Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby agrees that its Subsidiary Guarantee set forth in Section 12.01 shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any failure to endorse on each Note a notation of such Subsidiary Guarantee.

(c)            If an Officer whose signature is on this Indenture or on the Notation of Guarantee no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates the Note on which a Notation of Guarantee is endorsed, the Subsidiary Guarantee shall be valid nevertheless.

(d)           The delivery of any Note by the Trustee, after the authentication thereof hereunder, shall constitute due delivery of the Subsidiary Guarantee set forth in this Indenture on behalf of the Subsidiary Guarantors.

Section 12.05       Releases of Subsidiary Guarantors.

A Subsidiary Guarantor will be deemed automatically and unconditionally released and discharged from all of its obligations under its Subsidiary Guarantee without any further action on the part of the Trustee or any Holder of the Notes:

(a)            in the event that a Subsidiary Guarantor is sold or disposed of (whether by merger, consolidation, the sale of its Capital Stock or the sale of all or substantially all of its assets (other than by lease)), and whether or not the Subsidiary Guarantor is the surviving entity in such transaction to a Person which is not the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company, or upon its liquidation or dissolution; or

(b)            upon a satisfaction and discharge of the Notes in accordance with Article 7.

Upon written request of the Company accompanied by an Officer’s Certificate and Opinion of Counsel stating that all covenants and conditions precedent to such release have been complied with, the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall execute an acknowledgement of such release or other documents reasonably requested by the Company in connection with such release.

ARTICLE 13
COLLATERAL AND SECURITY

Section 13.01       Collateral and Security.

The Obligations will be secured by a perfected Lien on the Collateral, as provided in the Security Documents, subject to Permitted Liens and the Intercreditor Agreement. Under the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, the proceeds of any collection, sale, disposition or other realization of Collateral received in connection with the exercise of remedies (including distributions of cash, securities or other property on account of the value of the Collateral in a bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar proceedings) will be applied in the order of priority set forth in Section 13.05.

Section 13.02       Security Documents.

In order to secure the Obligations, the Company and the Grantor Subsidiaries have entered into and delivered to the Collateral Agent the Senior Security Agreement and the other Security Documents, in each case, to which they are a party, to create the Liens on the Collateral securing their respective Obligations. In the event of a conflict between the terms of this Indenture and the Security Documents in regards to the Collateral, the Security Documents shall control. Each Holder of Notes, by its acceptance thereof, consents and agrees to the terms of the Security Documents as the same may be in effect or may be amended from time to time in accordance with its terms and authorizes and directs each of the Collateral Agent and the Trustee to (i) enter into the Intercreditor Agreement and the Security Documents to which it is a party and to perform its obligations and exercise its rights thereunder in accordance therewith (ii) to make the representations of the Holders as set forth in the Intercreditor Agreement and the Security Documents and (iii) to bind the Holders on the terms set forth in the Intercreditor Agreement and the Security Documents. On or before the date that is sixty (60) days after the Initial Issue Date, the Company shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Collateral Agent duly executed mortgage documents with respect to the Company-owned facility in New Jersey.

Section 13.03       Authorization of Actions to Be Taken.

(a)           Each Holder of Notes, by its acceptance thereof, hereby designates and appoints the Collateral Agent as its agent under this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreement and the Security Documents and each Holder by acceptance of the Notes consents and agrees to the terms of this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreement, each Security Document, as originally in effect and as amended, supplemented or replaced from time to time in accordance with its terms or the terms of this Indenture, authorizes and directs the Collateral Agent to enter into the Intercreditor Agreement, the Security Documents to which it is a party, and irrevocably authorizes and empowers the Collateral Agent to perform its obligations and duties, exercise its rights and powers and take any action permitted or required thereunder that are expressly delegated to the Collateral Agent by the terms of this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreement and the Security Documents. The Collateral Agent shall hold (directly or through any agent) and is directed by each Holder to so hold, and shall be entitled to enforce on behalf of the Holders all Liens on the Collateral created or perfected by the Security Documents for their benefit.

101

(b)           Subject to the provisions of the applicable Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement and to the last sentence of this Section 13.03(b), the Trustee and each Holder, by acceptance of any Notes, agrees that (x) the Collateral Agent may, in its sole discretion and without the consent of the Trustee or the Holders, take all actions it deems necessary or appropriate in order to preserve its interest and the interest of the Holders in the Collateral or the Secured Parties’ rights under the Security Documents and (y) the Collateral Agent shall have power to institute and to maintain such suits and proceedings as it may deem expedient to protect or enforce the Liens securing the Obligations and/or to prevent any impairment of the Collateral by any act that may be unlawful or in violation of the Indenture Documents, and such suits and proceedings as the Collateral Agent may deem expedient to preserve or protect its interests and the interests of the Holders in the Collateral (including the power to institute and maintain suits or proceedings to restrain the enforcement of or compliance with any legislative or other governmental enactment, rule or order that may be unconstitutional or otherwise invalid if the enforcement of, or compliance with, such enactment, rule or order would impair the security interest thereunder or be prejudicial to the interests of the Collateral Agent, the Holders or the Trustee). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Collateral Agent may, at the expense of the Company, request the direction of the Holders with respect to any such actions and upon receipt of the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority of the aggregate principal amount of Notes then Outstanding, shall take such actions; provided that all actions so taken shall, at all times, be in conformity with the requirements of the Intercreditor Agreement, if applicable. In the absence of such written consent from the Holders of at least a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes then Outstanding, the Collateral Agent shall not be required to take any such actions and shall have no liability for refraining from taking any such action. Until the Notes and the other Obligations are discharged in full or are otherwise no longer outstanding (other than Contingent Liabilities), all remedies and Enforcement Actions in respect of the Collateral and any foreclosure actions in respect of any Liens on the Collateral, and all actions, undertakings or consents by the Collateral Agent in respect of the Collateral, in each case, shall be undertaken solely at the instruction of the Holders of at least a majority of the aggregate principal amount of Notes then Outstanding and subject to the Intercreditor Agreement.

Section 13.04       Release of Collateral.

(a)           The Liens securing the Obligations on the applicable Collateral shall be automatically terminated and released without further action by any party (other than satisfaction of any requirements in the Security Documents, if any), in whole or in part: (i) upon any disposition of all or any portion of Collateral (other than a disposition to the Company or any Grantor Subsidiary) in accordance with the terms of this Indenture; (ii) upon discharge of this Indenture and the other Indenture Documents in accordance with Article 7; (iii) at the direction of the Holders of at least a majority of the aggregate principal amount of Notes then Outstanding; or (iv) if the Collateral is owned by a Grantor Subsidiary, upon release of such Grantor Subsidiary in its capacity as a Subsidiary Guarantor from the Obligations in accordance with the provisions hereof.

102

(b)           Without the necessity of any consent of or notice to the Trustee or any Holder of the Notes, the Company or any Grantor Subsidiary may request and instruct the Collateral Agent to, on behalf of each Holder of Notes, (i) execute and deliver to the Company or any Officer of the Company, as the case may be, for the benefit of any Person, such release documents as may be reasonably requested in writing, of all Liens held by the Collateral Agent in any Collateral securing the Obligations, and (ii) deliver any such assets in the possession of the Collateral Agent to any Company Indenture Party, as the case may be; and Collateral Agent shall promptly take such actions provided that any such release complies with and is expressly permitted in accordance with the terms of this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreement and the Security Documents and is accompanied by an Officer’s Certificate and Opinion of Counsel to such effect, which Officer’s Certificate and Opinion of Counsel shall also state that all covenants and conditions precedent to such actions have been complied with, on which Officer’s Certificate and Opinion of Counsel the Collateral Agent shall be permitted to conclusively rely.

(c)           The release of any Collateral from the Liens securing the Obligations or the release of, in whole or in part, the Liens securing the Obligations created by any of the Security Document will not be deemed to impair the Liens securing the Obligations in contravention of the provisions hereof if and to the extent the Collateral or the Liens securing the Obligations are released pursuant to the terms of this Indenture and the applicable Security Documents. Each of the Holders of the Notes acknowledges that a release of Collateral or Liens securing the Obligations strictly in accordance with the terms of this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreement and the Security Documents will not be deemed for any purpose to be an impairment of the Security Documents or otherwise contrary to the terms of this Indenture.

Section 13.05       Application of Proceeds of Collateral.

(a)           Upon any realization upon the Collateral from the exercise of any rights or remedies under any Security Document or any other agreement with the Company or any Grantor Subsidiary which secures any of the Obligations, the proceeds thereof shall be applied in accordance with Section 6.14 of this Indenture.

(b)           Each of the Collateral Agent and the Trustee is authorized and empowered to receive any funds collected or distributed under the Intercreditor Agreement and the Security Documents and to apply according to the provisions of this Indenture, subject to the Intercreditor Agreement.

Section 13.06       Collateral Agent.

(a)           The Company hereby appoints Wilmington Trust, National Association to act as Collateral Act and each Holder, by its acceptance of the Notes irrevocably consents and agrees to such appointment.

103

(b)           Subject to the provisions of Section 11.01 as to the Trustee only, neither the Trustee, nor the Collateral Agent nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees, attorneys or agents shall be responsible or liable (i) for the legality, enforceability, effectiveness or sufficiency of the Security Documents, for the creation, perfection, priority, sufficiency, maintenance, renewal or protection of any Lien, or for any defect or deficiency as to any such matters, or (ii) for any failure to demand, collect, foreclose or realize upon or otherwise enforce any of the Liens or Security Documents or any delay in doing so; except, in the case of the Collateral Agent, to the extent such action or omission constitutes gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a final order of a court of competent jurisdiction that is not subject to appeal) on the part of the Collateral Agent, (iii) for the validity, sufficiency, value, genuineness, ownership or transferability of the Collateral, written instructions or any agreement or assignment contained therein and will not be regarded as making nor be required to make, any representations thereto, or for the validity of the title, for insuring the Collateral or for the payment of taxes, charges, assessments or Liens upon the Collateral or otherwise as to the maintenance of the Collateral or (iv) for the legality, enforceability, effectiveness or sufficiency of the Intercreditor Agreement, or any subordination agreement or other similar agreement entered into in connection with this Indenture. Neither the Trustee nor the Collateral Agent shall have any obligation whatsoever to the Trustee or any of the Holders to assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by the Company or any Guarantor or is cared for, protected, or insured or has been encumbered, or that the Collateral Agent’s Liens have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected, maintained or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or to determine whether all of the property constituting Collateral intended to be subject to the Lien and security interest of the Security Documents has been properly and completely listed or delivered, as the case may be, or the value, genuineness, validity, ownership, marketability or sufficiency thereof or title thereto, or to exercise at all or in any particular manner or under any duty of care, disclosure, or fidelity, or to continue exercising, any of the rights, authorities, and powers granted or available to the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Indenture, any Security Document or the Intercreditor Agreement other than pursuant to the instructions of the Trustee or the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes or as otherwise provided in the Security Documents.

(c)           The rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee under this Indenture, including, without limitation, its right to be indemnified, reimbursed and compensated and all other rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits set forth in Article 11, are extended to the Collateral Agent, and its agents, receivers and attorneys, and shall be enforceable by, the Collateral Agent, as if fully set forth in this Section 13.06 with respect to the Collateral Agent, except that the Collateral Agent shall only be liable for (and shall be indemnified and held harmless to the extent such Losses do not constitute) its gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a final order of a court of competent jurisdiction that is not subject to appeal). In acting under any Security Document or the Intercreditor Agreement and any other Transaction Document, the Collateral Agent or the Trustee, as applicable, shall enjoy the rights, privileges, protections, immunities, indemnities and benefits that are extended to the Collateral Agent or the Trustee, as applicable, hereunder.

104

(d)           Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the duties of the Collateral Agent shall be ministerial and administrative in nature and the Collateral Agent will not have any duties nor will it have responsibilities or obligations other than those expressly assumed by it in this Indenture, the other Security Documents to which the Collateral Agent is a party and the Intercreditor Agreement. The use of the term “agent” in this Indenture with reference to the Collateral Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties. The Company hereby agrees that the Collateral Agent shall hold the Collateral on behalf of and for the benefit of the Secured Parties, in each case pursuant to the Security Documents. The Collateral Agent shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture or any Security Document at the request, order or direction of the Holders pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture or any Security Document, unless such representative or other party shall have furnished to the Collateral Agent security or indemnity satisfactory to the Collateral Agent against the fees, costs, expenses and liabilities including attorneys’ fees and expenses which may be incurred therein or thereby. The Collateral Agent shall have no responsibility or liability for any loss or damages of any nature that may arise from any action taken or not taken by the Collateral Agent in accordance with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority of the aggregate principal amount of Notes then Outstanding. The permissive authorizations, entitlements, powers and rights granted to the Collateral Agent in this Indenture and the Security Documents shall not be construed as duties. The Collateral Agent shall have no duty to review or analyze reports delivered to it. Delivery of reports, documents and other information to the Collateral Agent is for informational purposes only and the Collateral Agent’s receipt of the foregoing shall not constitute actual or constructive notice or knowledge of any event or circumstance or any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein.

(e)           Beyond the exercise of reasonable care in the custody of Collateral in its possession, the Collateral Agent will have no duty as to any Collateral in its possession or control or in the possession or control of any agent or bailee or any income thereon or as to preservation of rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto. In addition, neither the Collateral Agent nor the Trustee will be responsible for filing any financing or continuation statements or recording any documents or instruments in any public office at any time or times or otherwise perfecting or maintaining the perfection of any Liens on the Collateral. If, at the direction of the Holders of at least a majority of the aggregate principal amount of Notes then Outstanding, the Trustee or Collateral Agent files or records any Security Documents or any related UCC financing statement or other similar documents, such filing or recording by the Trustee or Collateral Agent at the direction of the Holders of at least a majority of the aggregate principal amount of Notes then Outstanding shall be deemed done by Trustee or Collateral Agent without recourse, representation or warranty by the Trustee or the Collateral Agent (and the Trustee and the Collateral Agent disclaim any representation or warranty as to the validity, effectiveness, priority, perfection or otherwise). The Collateral Agent will be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody of the Collateral in its possession if the Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which it accords property held by it as a collateral agent or any similar arrangement, and the Collateral Agent will not be liable or responsible for any loss or diminution in the value of any of the Collateral by reason of the act or omission of any carrier, forwarding agency or other agent or bailee selected by the Collateral Agent in good faith. The Collateral Agent shall be permitted to use overnight carriers to transmit possessory collateral and shall be not liable for any items lost or damages in transmit.

(f)            The Collateral Agent shall not have any duty to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms of this Indenture or any Indenture Document by the Company or any Company Indenture Party or any other Person that is a party thereto or bound thereby.

105

(g)           The Collateral Agent shall not be required to acquire title to an asset for any reason and shall not be required to carry out any fiduciary or trust obligation for the benefit of another. The Collateral Agent is not a fiduciary and shall not be deemed to have assumed any fiduciary obligation. If the Collateral Agent or the Trustee in its sole discretion believes that any obligation to take or omit to take any action may cause the Collateral Agent or the Trustee, as applicable to be considered an “owner or operator” under any environmental laws or otherwise cause the Collateral Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, to incur, or be exposed to, any environmental liability or any liability under any other federal, state or local law, the Collateral Agent and the Trustee reserve the right, instead of taking such action, either to resign as Collateral Agent or Trustee or to arrange for the transfer of the title or control of the asset to a court appointed receiver. Neither the Collateral Agent nor the Trustee will be liable to any Person for any liability, claims, causes of action, suits, losses, allegations, requests, demands, penalties, fines, settlements, damages (including foreseeable and unforeseeable), judgments, expenses and costs (including but not limited to, any remediation, corrective action, response, removal or remedial action, or investigation, operations and maintenance or monitoring costs, for personal injury or property damages, real or personal) of any kind whatsoever, or contribution actions under any federal, state or local law, rule or regulation by reason of the Collateral Agent’s or the Trustee’s actions and conduct as authorized, empowered and directed hereunder or relating to any kind of discharge or release or threatened discharge or release of any hazardous materials into the environment.

(h)           The Collateral Agent may resign or be replaced in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 11.10 hereof, except that references to the Trustee in such section shall be deemed to be references to the Collateral Agent for this purpose. If the Collateral Agent consolidates, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all of its corporate trust business to, another corporation, the successor corporation without any further act will be the successor Collateral Agent.

(i)            At all times when the Person serving as Trustee is not itself also serving as the Collateral Agent, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee copies of all Security Documents delivered to the Collateral Agent and copies of all documents delivered to the Collateral Agent pursuant to the Security Documents.

(j)            Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreement or the Security Documents, in the event the Collateral Agent is entitled or required to commence an action to foreclose or otherwise exercise its remedies to acquire control or possession of the Collateral, the Collateral Agent shall not be required to commence any such action or exercise any remedy or to inspect or conduct any studies of any property under the mortgages or take any such other action if the Collateral Agent has determined that the Collateral Agent may incur personal liability as a result of the presence at, or release on or from, the Collateral or such property, of any hazardous substances. The Collateral Agent shall at any time be entitled to cease taking any action described in this clause if it no longer reasonably deems any indemnity, security or undertaking from the Company or the Holders to be sufficient.

(k)           Upon the receipt by the Collateral Agent of a written request of the Company signed by an Officer (a “Security Document Order”), the Collateral Agent is hereby authorized to execute and enter into, and shall execute and enter into, without the further consent of any Holder or the Trustee, any Security Document to be executed after the Initial Issue Date. Such Security Document Order shall (i) state that it is being delivered to the Collateral Agent pursuant to, and is a Security Document Order referred to in, this Section 13.06(k), and (ii) instruct the Collateral Agent to execute and enter into such Security Document; provided that in no event shall the Collateral Agent be required to enter into a Security Document that it determines adversely affects the Collateral Agent in a commercially unreasonable manner (taking into account other security documents it has recently agreed to in similar secured notes transactions). Any such execution of a Security Document shall be at the direction and reasonable expense of the Company, upon delivery to the Collateral Agent of an Officers’ Certificate and Opinion of Counsel stating that all conditions precedent to the execution and delivery of the Security Document have been satisfied. The Holders, by their acceptance of the Notes, hereby authorize and direct the Collateral Agent to execute such Security Documents.

106

(l)            Without limiting the foregoing, with respect to any Collateral located outside of the United States (“Foreign Collateral”), the Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to directly enforce, or exercise rights and remedies in respect of, or otherwise exercise any judicial action or appear before any court in any jurisdiction outside of the United States. To the extent the Holders of a majority in aggregate outstanding amount of Notes outstanding determine that it is necessary or advisable in connection with any enforcement or exercise of rights with respect to Foreign Collateral to exercise any judicial action or appear before any such court, the Holders of a majority in aggregate outstanding amount of Notes outstanding shall be entitled to direct the Collateral Agent to appoint a local agent for such purpose (subject to the receipt of such protections, security and indemnities as the Collateral Agent shall determine in its sole discretion to protect the Collateral Agent from liability).

(m)          In no event shall the Collateral Agent be required to execute and deliver any landlord lien waiver, estoppel or collateral access letter, or any account control agreement or any instruction or direction letter delivered in connection with such document that the Collateral Agent determines adversely affects it or otherwise subjects it to personal liability, including without limitation agreements to indemnify any contractual counterparty; provided that nothing in this clause (m) shall be implied as imposing any such obligation on the Company or any Guarantor to obtain any such landlord lien waiver, estoppel or collateral access letter, or any account control agreement.

(n)           Neither the Trustee nor the Collateral Agent shall be under any obligation to effect or maintain insurance or to renew any policies of insurance or to make any determination or inquire as to the sufficiency of any policies of insurance carried by the Company or any Guarantor, or to report, or make or file claims or proof of loss for, any loss or damage insured against or that may occur, or to keep itself informed or advised as to the payment of any taxes or assessments, or to require any such payment to be made.

(o)           Nothing in this Indenture shall require the Collateral Agent to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers hereunder. The Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any indirect, special, incidental, punitive or consequential damages (included but not limited to lost profits) whatsoever, even if it has been informed of the likelihood thereof and regardless of the form of action.

(p)           The Collateral Agent (i) shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith which it reasonably believes to be authorized or within its rights or powers, or for any error of judgment made in good faith by the Collateral Agent, unless it is proved that the Collateral Agent was grossly negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts, (ii) shall not be liable for interest on any money received by it except as the Collateral Agent may agree in writing with the Company (and money held in trust by the Collateral Agent need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law), (iii) the Collateral Agent may consult with counsel of its selection and the advice or opinion of such counsel as to matters of law shall be full and complete authorization and protection from liability in respect of any action taken, omitted or suffered by it in good faith and in accordance with the advice or opinion of such counsel.

107

(q)           The Collateral Agent may act through attorneys or agents and shall not be responsible for the acts or omissions of any such attorney or agent appointed with due care.
