An adjustment made pursuant to this subsection (a) shall become effective immediately after the case may be, shall record date in the case of a dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the events referred to in (i) above, be decreased in proportion to the number of outstanding Common Shares resulting from such subdivision, redivision or change, or shall, effective date in the case of the events referred to in (ii) above, be increased in proportion to the number of outstanding Common Shares resulting from such reduction, combination subdivision or consolidation in each case by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect on such effective date by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding immediately prior to such date and the denominator shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding immediately after such date. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever any event referred to in this Section 7.1(a) shall occur;combination.
(b) if and whenever at any time during In case the Adjustment Period, the Corporation Company shall fix a record date for the issuance of rights, options issue rights or warrants to all or substantially all the holders of its outstanding Common Shares Stock entitling them, them (for a period commencing no earlier than the record date described below and expiring not more than 45 60 days after such record date, ) to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Shares Stock (or securities convertible or exchangeable into Common SharesStock) at a price per share (or having a conversion or exchange price per share) less than the Twenty Day Weighted Average Trading Current Market Price Per Share of Common Stock on the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such record daterights or warrants (provided, however, if such rights or warrants are only exercisable upon the occurrence of certain events, then the Conversion Price shall not be adjusted immediately after unless and until such record date so that it shall equal the amount determined by multiplying triggering events occur), the Conversion Price in effect on such record date by a fraction, of which the numerator shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date multiplied by the Twenty Day Weighted Average Trading Price on such record date, less the fair market value (as determined by the Directors, subject to Section 7.4) of such rights, options or warrants, and of which the denominator shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date multiplied by such Twenty Day Weighted Average Trading Price provided that
(i) any Common Shares owned by or held for the account of the corporation or any subsidiary shall be deemed not to be outstanding for the purpose of any such computation;
(ii) such adjustment shall be made successively whenever such a record date is fixed;
(iii) to the extent that any such rights, options or warrants are not exercised immediately prior to the expiration thereof, the Conversion Price shall be readjusted to the Conversion Price which would then be in effect if such record date had not been fixed or to the Conversion Price which would then be in effect based upon the number of Common Shares (or securities convertible or exchangeable into Common Shares) actually issued upon the exercise of such rights, options or warrants, as the case may be;

(i) Common Shares owned by or held for the account determination shall be made as of the Corporation time of expiration or any subsidiary redemption, rather than the record date, and shall be deemed not based upon the value immediately prior to be outstanding for such expiration or upon the purpose of any such computation;
(ii) such redemption price, as the case may be. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever such a record date is fixed;
(iii) to the extent that any such distribution is not so made and shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such distribution.

(d) In case the Company shall, by dividend or otherwise, distribute to all holders of its Common Stock shares of any class, whether class of capital stock of the Corporation Company (other than any dividends or any other corporation (including stock dividends), (iidistributions to which Section 15.6(a) rights, options applies) or warrants (excluding those referred to in Section 7.1(b)); (iii) evidences of its indebtedness or (iv) other assets (including cashsecurities, but excluding (1) any rights or warrants referred to in Section 15.6(c) and (2) dividends and distributions paid exclusively in cash (except as set forth in Section 15.6(e), (the foregoing hereinafter in this Section 15.6(d) called the "Additional Securities")), unless the Company elects to reserve such Additional Securities for distribution to the Noteholders upon conversion of the CorporationNotes so that any such holder converting Notes will receive upon such conversion, in addition to the shares of Common Stock to which such holder is entitled, the amount and kind of such Additional Securities which such holder would have received if such holder had converted its Notes into Common Stock immediately prior to the Record Date (as defined in Section 15.6(e)) for such distribution of the Additional Securities then, in each such case, the Conversion Price shall be reduced so that the same shall be equal to the price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the Record Date with respect to such distribution by a fraction of which (i) the numerator shall be the Current Market Price (determined as provided in Section 15.6(e)) on such date less the fair market value (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive and described in a Board Resolution) on such date of the portion of the Additional Securities so distributed applicable to one share of Common Stock and (ii) the denominator shall be such Current Market Price, such reduction to become effective immediately prior to the opening of business on the day following the Record Date; provided, however, that in the event the then fair market value (as so determined) of the portion of the Additional Securities so distributed applicable to one share of Common Stock is equal to or greater than the Current Market Price on the Record Date, in lieu of the foregoing adjustment, adequate provision shall be made so that each Noteholder shall have the right to receive upon conversion of a Note (or any portion thereof) the amount of Common Stock such holder would have received had such holder converted such Note (or portion thereof) immediately prior to such Record Date. In the event that such dividend or distribution is not so paid or made, the Conversion Price shall again be adjusted to be the Conversion Price which would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared. If the Board of Directors determines the fair market value of any distribution for purposes of this Section 15.6(d) by reference to the actual or when issued trading market for any securities comprising all or part of such distribution, it must in doing so consider the prices in such market over the same period (the "Reference Period") used in computing the Current Market Price pursuant to Section 15.6(e) to the extent possible, unless the Board of Directors in a Board Resolution determines in good faith that determining the fair market value during the Reference Period would not be in the best interest of the Noteholder. In the event that the Company implements a new shareholder rights plan, such rights plan shall provide that upon conversion of the Notes the holders will receive, in addition to the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion, the rights issued under such rights plan as if the holders had converted the Notes prior to implementing the rights plan and notwithstanding the occurrence of an event causing such rights to separate from the Common Stock at or prior to the time of conversion. Any distribution of rights or warrants pursuant to a shareholder rights plan complying with the requirements set forth in the immediately preceding sentence of this paragraph shall not constitute a distribution of rights or warrants for the purposes of this Section 15.6(d). Rights or warrants distributed by the Company to all holders of Common Stock entitling the holders thereof to subscribe for or purchase shares of the Company's capital stock (either initially or under certain circumstances), which rights or warrants, until the occurrence of a specified event or events ("Trigger Event"): (i) are deemed to be transferred with such shares of Common Stock; (ii) are not exercisable; and (iii) are also issued in respect of future issuances of Common Stock, shall be deemed not to have been distributed for purposes of this Section 15.6(d) (and no adjustment to the Conversion Price under this Section 15.6(d) will be required) until the occurrence of the earliest Trigger Event. If such right or warrant is subject to subsequent events, upon the occurrence of which such right or warrant shall become exercisable to purchase different securities, evidences of indebtedness or other assets or entitles the holder to purchase a different number or amount of the foregoing or to purchase any of the foregoing at a different purchase price, then the occurrence of each such event shall be deemed to be the date of issuance and record date with respect to a new right or warrant (and a termination or expiration of the existing right or warrant without exercise by the holder thereof). In addition, in the event of any distribution (or deemed distribution) of rights or warrants, or any Trigger Event or other event (of the type described in the preceding sentence) with respect thereto, that resulted in an adjustment to the Conversion Price under this Section 15.6(d), (1) in the case of any such rights or warrants that shall all have been redeemed or repurchased without exercise by any holders thereof, the Conversion Price shall be readjusted upon such final redemption or repurchase to give effect to such distribution or Trigger Event, as the case may be, as though it were a cash distribution, equal to the per share redemption or repurchase price received by a holder of Common Stock with respect to such rights or warrants (assuming such holder had retained such rights or warrants), made to all holders of Common Stock as of the date of such redemption or repurchase, and (2) in the case of such rights or warrants all of which shall have expired or been terminated without exercise, the Conversion Price shall be readjusted as if such rights and warrants had never been issued. For purposes of this Section 15.6(d) and Sections 15.6(a) and (c), any dividend or distribution to which this Section 15.6(d) is applicable that also includes shares of Common Stock, or rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock to which Section 15.6(a) or 15.6(c) applies (or both), shall be deemed instead to be (1) a dividend or distribution of the evidences of indebtedness, assets, shares of capital stock, rights or warrants other than such shares of Common Stock or rights or warrants to which Section 15.6(c) applies (and any Conversion Price reduction required by this Section 15.6(d) with respect to such dividend or distribution shall then be made) immediately followed by (2) a dividend or distribution of such shares of Common Stock or such rights or warrants (and any further Conversion Price reduction required by Sections 15.6(a) and (c) with respect to such dividend or distribution shall then be made, except (A) the Record Date of such dividend or distribution shall be substituted as "the date fixed for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such dividend or other distribution", "Record Date fixed for such determination" and "Record Date" within the meaning of Section 15.6(a) and as "the date fixed for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants", "the Record Date fixed for the determination of the shareholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants" and "such Record Date" within the meaning of Section 15.6(c) and (B) any shares of Common Stock included in such dividend or distribution shall not be deemed "outstanding at the close of business on the date fixed for such determination" within the meaning of Section 15.6(a). In case the Company shall, by dividend or otherwise, distribute to all holders of its Common Stock cash (excluding any cash that is distributed upon a merger or consolidation to which Section 15.7 applies or as part of a distribution referred to in Section 15.6), then immediately after such record date the close of business on the Record Date for the distribution, the Conversion Price shall be reduced so that it the same shall equal the price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the close of business on such record date Record Date by a fraction, fraction (i) the numerator of which the numerator shall be equal to the total Current Market Price on the Record Date less an amount equal to the quotient of (x) such combined amount and (y) the number of shares of Common Shares Stock outstanding on such record date multiplied by the Twenty Day Weighted Average Trading Record Date and (ii) the denominator of which shall be equal to the Current Market Price on such record date; provided, less however, that in the fair market value event the portion of the cash so distributed applicable to one (as determined by the Directors, subject to Section 7.4 of such shares, rights, options, warrants, evidences of indebtedness or assets so distributed, and of which the denominator shall be the total number 1) share of Common Shares outstanding on such record date multiplied by such Twenty Day Weighted Average Trading Stock is equal to or greater than the Current Market Price provided that:
(i) Common Shares owned by or held for the account of the Corporation or any subsidiary shall be deemed not to be outstanding for Common Stock on the purpose Record Date, in lieu of any such computation;
(ii) such adjustment the foregoing adjustment, adequate provision shall be made successively whenever so that each holder shall have the right to receive upon conversion of a Note (or any portion thereof) the amount of cash such a record date is fixed;
holder would have received had such holder converted such Note (iiior portion thereof) immediately prior to such Record Date. In the extent event that such dividend or distribution is not so paid or made, the Conversion Price shall again be readjusted adjusted to be the Conversion Price which that would then be in effect if such record date dividend or distribution had not been fixed or to the Conversion Price which would then be in effect based upon such shares or rights, options or warrants or evidences of indebtedness or assets actually distributed, as the case may be;
(d) if and whenever at any time during the Adjustment Period, there is a reclassification of the Common Shares or a capital reorganization of the Corporation other than as described in Section 7.1(a) or a consolidation, amalgamation, arrangement or merger of the Corporation with or into any other body corporate, trust, partnership or other entity, or a sale or conveyance of the property and assets of the Corporation as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to any other body corporate, trust, partnership or other entity, the Holder shall, upon the exercise of the Conversion Right, be entitled to receive and shall accept, in lieu of the number of shares then sought to be acquired by it, the number of Common Shares or other securities or property of the Corporation or of the body corporate, trust, partnership or other entity resulting from such merger, amalgamation, arrangement or consolidation, or to which such sale or conveyance may be made, as the case may be, that the Holder would have been entitled to receive on such reclassification, capital reorganization, consolidation, amalgamation, arrangement or merger, sale or conveyance, if, on the record date or the effective date thereof, as the case may be, the Holder had been the registered holder of the number of Common Shares sought to be acquired by it and to which it was entitled to acquire upon the exercise of the Conversion Right and a contemporaneous and equal adjustment shall be made to the Conversion Price;declared.
(e) in any case in which Section 7.1(b) or 7.1(c) require that an adjustment be made to the Conversion Price, no such adjustment shall be made if, subject to the prior approval of applicable stock exchanges the Holder receives the rights, options or warrants referred to in Section 7.1(b) or the share rights, options, warrants, evidences of indebtedness or assets referred to in Section 7.1(c), as the case may be, in such kind and number as it would have received if it had been a holder of Common Shares on the applicable record date or effective date, as the case may be, by virtue of the Principal Sum having then been converted into Common Shares at the Conversion Price in effect on the applicable record or effective date, as the case may be;
(f) the adjustments provided for in this Section 7.1 are cumulative, and shall, in the case of adjustments to the Conversion Price be computed to the nearest whole cent and shall apply to successive subdivisions, redivisions, reductions, combinations, consolidations, distributions, issues or other events resulting in any adjustment under the provisions For purposes of this Section 7.1.
(g) if, in the opinion of the Directors15.6, the provisions of this Section 7.1 are not strictly applicable, or if strictly applicable would not fairly protect following terms shall have the rights of the Holder in accordance with the intent and purposes hereof, the Directors shall make any adjustment in such provisions for the benefit of the Holder as the Directors deem appropriate.meaning indicated:

An adjustment made pursuant to this subsection (a) shall become effective on the effective date opening of such subdivision, redivision, change, reduction, combination or consolidation, as business after the case may be, shall in the case of the events referred to in (i) above, be decreased in proportion to the number of outstanding Common Shares resulting from such subdivision, redivision or change, or shallrecord date, in the case of a dividend or distribution, and shall become effective on the events referred to opening of business after the effective date, in (ii) above, be increased in proportion to the number case of outstanding Common Shares resulting from such reduction, combination subdivision or consolidation in each case by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect on such effective date by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding immediately prior to such date and the denominator shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding immediately after such date. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever any event referred to in this Section 7.1(a) shall occur;combination.
(b) if and whenever at any time during In case the Adjustment Period, the Corporation Company shall fix a record date for the issuance of issue rights, options or warrants (other than pursuant to a stockholder rights plan) to all or substantially all the holders of its outstanding Common Shares Stock entitling them, for a period expiring not more than 45 days after such record date, them to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Shares Stock (or securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable into for Common SharesStock) at a price per share (or having a conversion conversion, exercise or exchange price per share) less than the Twenty Day Weighted Average Trading Current Market Price per share of Common Stock on the record date with respect to such issuance, (or if no such record datedate is fixed, the Business Day immediately prior to the date of announcement of such issuance) (treating the conversion, exercise or exchange price per share of such securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock as equal to (x) the sum of (i) the price for a unit of such security convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock and (ii) any additional consideration initially payable upon the conversion of such security into or exercise or exchange of such security for Common Stock divided by (y) the number of shares of Common Stock initially underlying such security), the Conversion Price in effect shall be adjusted immediately after such record date so that it the Conversion Price shall equal the amount price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect at the opening of business on the date after such record date (or if no such record date is fixed, the applicable Business Day) by a fraction, :
(1) the numerator of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on the close of business on the record date (or, if no such record date is fixed, the date of announcement of such issuance), plus the number of shares which the aggregate subscription or purchase price for the total number of shares of Common Shares Stock underlying the rights options, or warrants so issued (or the aggregate conversion, exercise or exchange price of such securities so offered) would purchase at such Current Market Price of the Common Stock; and
(2) the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at the close of business on the record date with respect to such issuance (or, if no such record date multiplied by is fixed, the Twenty Day Weighted Average Trading Price on such record date, less date immediately prior to the fair market value (as determined by the Directors, subject to Section 7.4) date of announcement of such issuance), plus the total number of additional shares of Common Stock underlying the rights, options or warrants, and of which the denominator shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date multiplied by such Twenty Day Weighted Average Trading Price provided that
(i) any Common Shares owned by or held for the account of the corporation or any subsidiary shall be deemed not to be outstanding for the purpose of any such computation;

(ci) if and whenever at any time during In case the Adjustment Period the Corporation Company shall fix a record date for the making of a distribution distribute to all or substantially all the holders of its outstanding Common Shares of (i) Stock any shares of any class, whether Capital Stock of the Corporation Company (other than Common Stock), evidences of indebtedness or any other corporation non-cash assets (including stock dividendssecurities of any person other than the Company but excluding (1) the portion of any dividends or distributions paid in cash, (2) dividends or distributions referred to in subsection (a) of this Section 13.06 or (3) distributions made in connection with the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company), (ii) or shall distribute to all or substantially all holders of its Common Stock rights, options or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any of its securities (excluding those rights, options and warrants referred to in Section 7.1(b)); subsection (iii) evidences of its indebtedness or (iv) assets (including cashb) of this Section 13.06 and also excluding the Corporationdistribution of rights to all holders of Common Stock pursuant to a Rights Plan or the detachment of such rights to the extent set forth in the second following paragraph), then, in each such case, the Conversion Price shall be adjusted immediately after to equal the price determined by multiplying the current Conversion Price by a fraction of which:
(1) the numerator of which shall be the Current Market Price per share of the Common Stock on such record date, less the fair market value on such record date (as determined by the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive evidence of such fair market value and which shall be evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Trustee and the Conversion Agent) of the portion of the distributed assets (other than cash) so distributed applicable to one share of Common Stock (determined on the basis of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on the record date); and
(2) the denominator of which shall be such Current Market Price on such record date. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever any such distribution is made and shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such distribution.
(ii) In the event that the Company has in effect a preferred shares rights plan (“Rights Plan”), upon conversion of the Securities into Common Stock, to the extent that the Rights Plan is still in effect upon such conversion, the Holders will receive, in addition to the Common Stock, the rights described therein (whether or not the rights have separated from the Common Stock at the time of conversion), subject to the limitations set forth in the Rights Plan. If the Rights Plan provides that upon separation of rights under such plan from the Company’s Common Stock that the Holders would not be entitled to receive any such rights in respect of the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Securities, the Conversion Price will be adjusted as provided in this Section 13.06(c) (with such separation deemed to be the distribution of such rights), subject to readjustment in the event of the expiration, termination or redemption of the rights. Any distribution of rights or warrants pursuant to a Rights Plan that would allow a Holder to receive upon conversion, in addition to the Common Stock, the rights described therein (whether or not the rights have separated from the Common Stock at the time of conversion), shall not constitute a distribution of rights, options or warrants pursuant to this Article XIII.
(iii) Rights, options or warrants distributed by the Company to all holders of Common Stock entitling the holders thereof to subscribe for or purchase shares of the Company’s Capital Stock (either initially or under certain circumstances), which rights, options or warrants, until the occurrence of a specified event or events (“Trigger Event”): (A) are deemed to be transferred with such shares of Common Stock; (B) are not exercisable; and (C) are also issued in respect of future issuances of Common Stock, shall be deemed not to have been distributed for purposes of this Section 13.06 (and no adjustment to the Conversion Price under this Section 13.06 will be required) until the occurrence of the earliest Trigger Event, whereupon such rights, options and warrants shall be deemed to have been distributed and an appropriate adjustment (if any is required) to the Conversion Price shall be made under this clause (c) of Section 13.06. If any such right or warrant, including any such existing rights, options or warrants distributed prior to the Original 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 record date with respect to new rights, options or warrants with such rights (and a termination or expiration of the existing rights, options or warrants without exercise by any of the holders thereof). In addition, in the event of any distribution (or deemed distribution) of rights, options or warrants, or any Trigger Event or other event (of the type described in the preceding sentence) with respect thereto that was counted for purposes of calculating a distribution amount for which an adjustment to the Conversion Price under this Section 13.06 was made, in the case of any such rights, options or warrants which shall all have been redeemed or repurchased without exercise by any holders thereof, the Conversion Price shall be readjusted upon such final redemption or repurchase to give effect to such distribution or Trigger Event, as the case may be, as though it were a cash distribution, equal to the per share redemption or repurchase price received by a holder or holders of Common Stock with respect to such rights, options or warrants (assuming such holder had retained such rights, options or warrants), made to all holders of Common Stock as of the date of such redemption or repurchase.
(d) In case the Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall purchase any shares of the Company’s Common Stock by means of a tender offer, then, effective immediately prior to the opening of business on the day after the last date (the “Expiration Date”) tenders could have been made pursuant to such tender offer (as it may be amended) (the last time at which such tenders could have been made on the Expiration Date is hereinafter sometimes called the “Expiration Time”), the Conversion Price shall be adjusted so that it the same shall equal the price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the close of business on such record date the Expiration Date by a fraction, fraction of which which:
(1) the numerator shall be the total product of the number of shares of Common Shares Stock outstanding on such record date (including Purchased Shares, but excluding any shares held in the treasury of the Company) immediately prior to the Expiration Time multiplied by the Twenty Day Weighted Average Trading Current Market Price per share of the Common Stock (as determined in accordance with clause (e) of Section 13.06); and
(2) the denominator shall be the sum of (x) the aggregate consideration (determined as set forth below) payable to stockholders of the Company based on the acceptance (up to any maximum specified in the terms of the tender offer) of all shares validly tendered and not withdrawn as of the Expiration Time (the shares deemed so accepted, up to any such record datemaximum, being referred to as the “Purchased Shares”) and (y) the product of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (less any Purchased Shares and excluding any shares held in the treasury of the Company) immediately prior to the Expiration Time and the Current Market Price per share of Common Stock (as determined in accordance with clause (f) of Section 13.06). For purposes of this clause (d) of Section 13.06, the aggregate consideration in any such tender offer shall equal the sum of the aggregate amount of cash consideration and the aggregate fair market value (as determined by the Board of Directors, subject to Section 7.4 of such shares, rights, options, warrants, evidences of indebtedness or assets so distributed, and of which the denominator whose determination shall be conclusive evidence thereof and which shall be evidenced by an Officers’ Certificate delivered to the total number Trustee and the Conversion Agent) of Common Shares outstanding on any other consideration payable in such record date multiplied tender offer. In the event that the Company is obligated to purchase shares pursuant to any such tender offer, but the Company is permanently prevented by applicable law from effecting any or all such Twenty Day Weighted Average Trading Price provided that:
(i) Common Shares owned by or held for the account of the Corporation purchases or any subsidiary shall be deemed not to be outstanding for the purpose of any or all such computation;
(ii) such adjustment shall be made successively whenever such a record date is fixed;
(iii) to the extent that such distribution is not so madepurchases are rescinded, the Conversion Price shall again be readjusted adjusted to be the Conversion Price which would then be in effect if such record date had not have been fixed or to the Conversion Price which would then be in effect based upon such shares or rights, options or warrants or evidences of indebtedness or assets actually distributed, as the case may be;
(d) if and whenever at any time during the Adjustment Period, there is a reclassification of the Common Shares or a capital reorganization of the Corporation other than as described in Section 7.1(a) or a consolidation, amalgamation, arrangement or merger of the Corporation with or into any other body corporate, trust, partnership or other entity, or a sale or conveyance of the property and assets of the Corporation as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to any other body corporate, trust, partnership or other entity, the Holder shall, upon the exercise of the Conversion Right, be entitled to receive and shall accept, in lieu of the number of shares then sought actually purchased.

(vi) No adjustment in the number of shares of Common Stock convertible hereunder shall be required unless such adjustment would result in an increase or decrease of at least one percent (1%) of the number of shares of Common Stock for which shares of the Securities are convertible; provided, that any adjustments which by reason of this Section (vi) are not required to be made shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment. Whenever an adjustment shall be made pursuant to (i) through (v) above, the Conversion Price shall be adjusted accordingly. All calculations shall be made to the nearest one-thousandth of a share.
(vii) No adjustment in the number of shares of Common Stock received upon conversion need be made under Sections (ii) through (iv) above if the Issuer issues or distributes to the Holder of the Securities shares of Common Stock, the shares, rights, options, warrants, evidences of indebtedness or assets so distributed, and of which the denominator shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date multiplied by such Twenty Day Weighted Average Trading Price provided that:
(i) Common Shares owned by or held for the account of the Corporation or any subsidiary shall be deemed not to be outstanding for the purpose of any such computation;
(ii) such adjustment shall be made successively whenever such a record date is fixed;
(iii) to the extent that such distribution is not so made, the Conversion Price shall be readjusted to the Conversion Price which would then be in effect if such record date had not been fixed or to the Conversion Price which would then be in effect based upon such shares or rights, options or warrants or evidences of indebtedness or assets actually distributed, as the case may be;
(d) if and whenever at any time during the Adjustment Period, there is a reclassification of the Common Shares or a capital reorganization of the Corporation other than as described in Section 7.1(a) or a consolidation, amalgamation, arrangement or merger of the Corporation with or into any other body corporate, trust, partnership or other entity, or a sale or conveyance of the property and assets of the Corporation as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to any other body corporate, trust, partnership or other entity, the Holder shall, upon the exercise of the Conversion Right, be entitled to receive and shall accept, in lieu of the number of shares then sought to be acquired by it, the number of Common Shares or other securities or property of the Corporation or of the body corporate, trust, partnership or other entity resulting from such merger, amalgamation, arrangement or consolidation, or to which such sale or conveyance may be made, as the case may be, that the Holder would have been entitled to receive on such reclassification, capital reorganization, consolidation, amalgamation, arrangement or merger, sale or conveyance, if, on the record date or the effective date thereof, as the case may be, the Holder had been the registered holder of the number of Common Shares sought to be acquired by it and to which it was entitled to acquire upon the exercise of the Conversion Right and a contemporaneous and equal adjustment shall be made to the Conversion Price;
(e) in any case in which Section 7.1(b) or 7.1(c) require that an adjustment be made to the Conversion Price, no such adjustment shall be made if, subject to the prior approval of applicable stock exchanges the Holder receives the rights, options or warrants referred to in Section 7.1(b) or the share rights, options, warrants, evidences of indebtedness or assets referred to in those Sections which such Holder would have been entitled to receive had this conversion not occurred prior to the happening of such event or the record date with respect thereto.
(viii) For the purpose of this Section 7.1(c)8, the term "shares of Common Stock" shall mean (i) Common Stock of the Issuer, or (ii) any other class of stock resulting from successive changes or reclassifications of such shares consisting solely of changes in par value, or from par value to no par value, or from no par value to par value. In the event that at any time, as a result of an adjustment made pursuant to clause (ii) above, the Holders shall become entitled to receive any securities of the Issuer other than shares of Common Stock, thereafter the number of such other shares so receivable upon conversion shall be subject to adjustment from time to time in a manner and on terms as nearly equivalent as practicable to the provisions with respect to the shares of Common Stock contained in Section (i) through (iv) above, and the other provisions of this Section 8 shall apply on like terms to any such other securities.
(ix) Except as provided in Sections (i) through (iii) above, no adjustment in respect of any dividends shall be made during the term of the Securities or upon the conversion of the Securities.
(x) Upon the expiration of any rights, options, warrants or conversion or exchange privileges with respect to which an adjustment shall have been made pursuant to Section (ii) or (iv) above, if any rights, options, warrants or conversion or exchange privileges thereof have not been exercised, the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon conversion will, upon such expiration, be readjusted and will thereafter be such as it would have been had it been originally adjusted (or had the original adjustment not been required, as the case may be, in such kind and number ) as it would have received if it had been a holder (i) the only shares of Common Shares on Stock so issued were the applicable record date shares of Common Stock, if any, actually issued or effective datesold upon the exercise of such rights, options or warrants or conversion or exchange rights and (ii) such shares of Common Stock, if any, were issued or sold for the consideration actually received by the Issuer upon such exercise, conversion or exchange plus the aggregate consideration, if any actually received by the Issuer for the issuance, sale or grant of all such rights, options or warrants, whether or not exercised. Whenever the number of shares purchasable upon conversion shall be adjusted as the case may be, required by virtue of the Principal Sum having then been converted into Common Shares at the Conversion Price in effect on the applicable record or effective date, as the case may be;
(f) the adjustments provided for in this Section 7.1 are cumulative, and shall, in the case of adjustments to the Conversion Price be computed to the nearest whole cent and shall apply to successive subdivisions, redivisions, reductions, combinations, consolidations, distributions, issues or other events resulting in any adjustment under the provisions of this Section 7.1.
(g) if8, the Issuer shall forthwith file in the opinion custody of its Secretary or an Assistant Secretary at its principal office and with its stock transfer agent, if any, an officers' certificate showing the adjusted number of shares determined as herein provided, setting forth in reasonable detail the facts requiring such adjustment and the manner of computing such adjustment.

Adjustment of Conversion Price. The Conversion Price in effect at any date shall be subject to adjustment adjusted from time to time by the Company as follows:
(a) if and whenever at any time during In case the Adjustment Period, the Corporation shall:
Company shall (i) subdividepay a dividend on its Common Stock in shares of Common Stock, redivide or change (ii) make a distribution on its Common Stock in shares of Common Stock, (iii) subdivide its outstanding Common Shares Stock into a greater number of such shares; or
, or (iiiv) reduce, combine or consolidate its outstanding Common Shares Stock into a smaller number of such shares; , the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior thereto shall be adjusted so that the Holder of any Security thereafter surrendered for conversion shall be entitled to receive that number of shares of Common Stock which it would have owned had such Security been converted immediately prior to the happening of such event. An adjustment made pursuant to this subsection (a) shall become effective on the effective date opening of such subdivision, redivision, change, reduction, combination or consolidation, as business after the case may be, shall in the case of the events referred to in (i) above, be decreased in proportion to the number of outstanding Common Shares resulting from such subdivision, redivision or change, or shallrecord date, in the case of a dividend or distribution, and shall become effective on the events referred to opening of business after the effective date, in (ii) above, be increased in proportion to the number case of outstanding Common Shares resulting from such reduction, combination subdivision or consolidation in each case by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect on such effective date by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding immediately prior to such date and the denominator shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding immediately after such date. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever any event referred to in this Section 7.1(a) shall occur;combination.
(b) if and whenever at any time during If the Adjustment Period, the Corporation Company shall fix a record date for the issuance of issue rights, options or warrants (other than pursuant to a stockholder rights plan) to all or substantially all the holders of its outstanding Common Shares Stock entitling them, for a period expiring not more than 45 days after such record date, them to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Shares Stock (or securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable into for Common SharesStock) at a price per share (or having a conversion conversion, exercise or exchange price per share, determined in accordance with the last sentence of this Section 14.06(b)) less than the Twenty Day Weighted Average Trading Current Market Price per share of Common Stock on the record date with respect to such issuance (or if no such record datedate is fixed, the Business Day immediately prior to the date of announcement of such issuance), the Conversion Price then in effect shall be adjusted immediately after such record date so that it shall as to be equal to the amount determined by multiplying product of (A) the Conversion Price in effect at the opening of business on the date after such record date by (or if no such record date is fixed, the applicable Business Day), and (B) a fraction, :
(1) the numerator of which the numerator shall be the sum of (x) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on the close of business on the record date (or, if no such record date is fixed, the date of announcement of such issuance), and (y) the number of shares which the aggregate subscription or purchase price for the total number of shares of Common Shares Stock underlying the rights options, or warrants so issued (or the aggregate conversion, exercise or exchange price of such securities so offered) would purchase at such Current Market Price of the Common Stock; and
(2) the denominator of which shall be the sum of (x) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at the close of business on the record date with respect to such issuance (or, if no such record date multiplied by is fixed, the Twenty Day Weighted Average Trading Price on such record date, less date immediately prior to the fair market value (as determined by the Directors, subject to Section 7.4) date of announcement of such issuance), and (y) the total number of additional shares of Common Stock underlying the rights, options or warrants, and of which the denominator shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date multiplied by such Twenty Day Weighted Average Trading Price provided that
(i) any Common Shares owned by or held for the account of the corporation or any subsidiary shall be deemed not to be outstanding for the purpose of any such computation;
(ii) such warrants so issued. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever such a record date is fixed;
(iii) to the extent that any such rights, options or warrants are not exercised prior issued, and shall become effective on the day following the date of announcement of such issuance. For purposes of this Section 14.06(b), in the case of any security which is convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable for, Common Stock and to the expiration thereof, the Conversion Price shall be readjusted to the Conversion Price which would then be in effect if such record date had not been fixed or to the Conversion Price which would then be in effect based upon the number a holder of Common Shares (or securities convertible or exchangeable into Common Shares) actually issued upon the exercise of such Stock is entitled to subscribe pursuant to rights, options or warrantswarrants issued by the Company in accordance with this Section 14.06(b), as the case may be;conversion, exercise or exchange price of such security shall be equal to the quotient of: (i) the sum of (A) the price for a unit of such security and (B) any additional consideration initially payable upon the conversion of such security into, or exercise or exchange of such security for, Common Stock; and (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock initially underlying such security.
(ci) if and whenever at any time during In case the Adjustment Period the Corporation Company shall fix a record date for the making of a distribution distribute to all or substantially all the holders of its outstanding Common Shares of (i) Stock any shares of any class, whether Capital Stock of the Corporation Company (other than Common Stock), evidences of indebtedness or any other corporation non-cash assets (including stock dividendssecurities of any Person other than the Company but excluding (x) the portion of any dividends or distributions paid in cash, (y) dividends or distributions referred to in subsection (a) of this Section 14.06 or (z) distributions made in connection with the liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company), (ii) or shall distribute to all or substantially all holders of its Common Stock rights, options or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any of its securities (excluding those rights, options and warrants referred to in subsection (b) of this Section 7.1(b14.06 and also excluding the distribution of rights to all holders of Common Stock pursuant to a Rights Plan or the separation of such rights to the extent set forth in subparagraph (ii) of this Section 14.06(c)); (iii) evidences of its indebtedness or (iv) assets (including cash) of the Corporation, then, in each such case, the Conversion Price shall be adjusted immediately after so as to be equal to the product of (A) the current Conversion Price and (B) a fraction:
(1) the numerator of which shall be the excess, if any, of (x) the Current Market Price per share of the Common Stock on such record date, over (y) the fair market value, on such record date (as determined by the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive evidence of such fair market value and which shall be evidenced by an Officers’ Certificate delivered to the Trustee and the Conversion Agent), of the portion of the assets (other than cash) so distributed applicable to one share of Common Stock (the fair market value of such portion to be determined by dividing the fair market value of all such assets so distributed, by the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on the record date); and
(2) the denominator of which shall be such Current Market Price on such record date. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever any such distribution is made and shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such distribution.
(ii) If the Company has in effect a preferred shares rights plan (“Rights Plan”), upon conversion of the Securities into Common Stock, to the extent that the Rights Plan is still in effect upon such conversion, the Holders will receive, in addition to the Common Stock, the rights described therein (whether or not the rights have separated from the Common Stock at the time of conversion), subject to the limitations set forth in the Rights Plan. If the Rights Plan provides that upon separation of rights under such plan from the Company’s Common Stock that the Holders would not be entitled to receive any such rights in respect of the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Securities, the Conversion Price will be adjusted as provided in this Section 14.06(c) (with such separation deemed to be the distribution of such rights), subject to readjustment in the event of the expiration, termination or redemption of the rights. Any distribution of rights or warrants pursuant to a Rights Plan that would allow a Holder to receive upon conversion, in addition to the Common Stock, the rights described therein (whether or not the rights have separated from the Common Stock at the time of conversion), shall not constitute a distribution of rights, options or warrants pursuant to this Article XIV.
(iii) Rights, options or warrants distributed by the Company to all holders of Common Stock entitling the holders thereof to subscribe for or purchase shares of the Company’s Capital Stock (either initially or under certain circumstances), which rights, options or warrants, until the occurrence of a specified event or events (“each, a Trigger Event”): (A) are deemed to be transferred with such shares of Common Stock; (B) are not exercisable; and (C) are also issued in respect of future issuances of Common Stock, shall be deemed not to have been distributed for purposes of this Section 14.06 (and no adjustment to the Conversion Price under this Section 14.06 will be required) until the occurrence of the earliest Trigger Event, whereupon such rights, options and warrants shall be deemed to have been distributed and an appropriate adjustment (if any is required) to the Conversion Price shall be made under this Section 14.06(c). If, upon the occurrence of certain events, any such rights, options or warrants (including any such existing rights, options or warrants distributed prior to the Original Issue Date) 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 the record date with respect to new rights, options or warrants with such rights (and a termination or expiration of the existing rights, options or warrants without exercise by any of the holders thereof). In addition, in the event of any distribution (or deemed distribution) of rights, options or warrants, or any Trigger Event or other event (of the type described in the preceding sentence) with respect thereto that was counted for purposes of calculating a distribution amount for which an adjustment to the Conversion Price under this Section 14.06 was made, in the case of any such rights, options or warrants which shall all have been redeemed or repurchased without exercise by any holders thereof, the Conversion Price shall be readjusted upon such final redemption or repurchase to give effect to such distribution or Trigger Event, as the case may be, as though it were a cash distribution, equal to the per share redemption or repurchase price received by a holder or holders of Common Stock with respect to such rights, options or warrants (assuming such holder had retained such rights, options or warrants), made to all holders of Common Stock as of the date of such redemption or repurchase.
(d) In case the Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall purchase any shares of the Company’s Common Stock by means of a tender offer, then, effective immediately prior to the opening of business on the day after the last date (the “Expiration Date”) on which tenders could have been made pursuant to such tender offer (as it may be amended) (the last time at which such tenders could have been made on the Expiration Date is hereinafter sometimes called the “Expiration Time”), the Conversion Price shall be adjusted so as to equal the price determined by multiplying product of (A) the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the close of business on such record date by the Expiration Date, and (B) a fraction, fraction of which which:
(1) the numerator shall be the total product of (x) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (including Purchased Shares, but excluding any shares held in the treasury of the Company) immediately prior to the Expiration Time and (y) the Current Market Price per share of the Common Stock (as determined in accordance with Section 14.06(e)); and
(2) the denominator shall be the sum of (i) the aggregate consideration (determined as set forth below) payable to stockholders of the Company based on the acceptance (up to any maximum specified in the terms of the tender offer) of all shares validly tendered and not withdrawn as of the Expiration Time (the shares deemed so accepted, up to any such maximum, being referred to as the “Purchased Shares”) and (ii) the product of (x) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (less any Purchased Shares outstanding on and excluding any shares held in the treasury of the Company) immediately prior to the Expiration Time and (y) the Current Market Price per share of Common Stock (as determined in accordance with Section 14.06(f)). For purposes of this Section 14.06(d), the aggregate consideration in any such record date multiplied by tender offer shall equal the Twenty Day Weighted Average Trading Price on such record date, less sum of the aggregate amount of cash consideration and the aggregate fair market value (as determined by the Board of Directors, subject to Section 7.4 of such shares, rights, options, warrants, evidences of indebtedness or assets so distributed, and of which the denominator whose determination shall be conclusive evidence thereof and which shall be evidenced by an Officers’ Certificate delivered to the total number Trustee and the Conversion Agent) of Common Shares outstanding on any other consideration payable in such record date multiplied tender offer. In the event that the Company is obligated to purchase shares pursuant to any such tender offer, but the Company is permanently prevented by applicable law from effecting any or all such Twenty Day Weighted Average Trading Price provided that:
(i) Common Shares owned by or held for the account of the Corporation purchases or any subsidiary shall be deemed not to be outstanding for the purpose of any or all such computation;
(ii) such adjustment shall be made successively whenever such a record date is fixed;
(iii) to the extent that such distribution is not so madepurchases are rescinded, the Conversion Price shall again be readjusted adjusted to be the Conversion Price which would then be in effect if such record date had not have been fixed or to the Conversion Price which would then be in effect based upon such shares or rights, options or warrants or evidences of indebtedness or assets actually distributed, as the case may be;
(d) if and whenever at any time during the Adjustment Period, there is a reclassification of the Common Shares or a capital reorganization of the Corporation other than as described in Section 7.1(a) or a consolidation, amalgamation, arrangement or merger of the Corporation with or into any other body corporate, trust, partnership or other entity, or a sale or conveyance of the property and assets of the Corporation as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to any other body corporate, trust, partnership or other entity, the Holder shall, upon the exercise of the Conversion Right, be entitled to receive and shall accept, in lieu of the number of shares then sought actually purchased. If the application of this Section 14.06(d) to be acquired by it, the number of Common Shares or other securities or property of the Corporation or of the body corporate, trust, partnership or other entity resulting from such merger, amalgamation, arrangement or consolidation, or to which such sale or conveyance may be made, as the case may be, that the Holder any tender offer would have been entitled to receive on such reclassification, capital reorganization, consolidation, amalgamation, arrangement or merger, sale or conveyance, if, on the record date or the effective date thereof, as the case may be, the Holder had been the registered holder of the number of Common Shares sought to be acquired by it and to which it was entitled to acquire upon the exercise of result in an increase in the Conversion Right and a contemporaneous and equal Price, no adjustment shall be made for such tender offer under this Section 14.06(d). For purposes of this Section 14.06(d), the term “tender offer” shall mean and include both tender offers and exchange offers, all references to “purchases” of shares in tender offers (and all similar references) shall mean and include both the Conversion Price;purchase of shares in tender offers and the acquisition of shares pursuant to exchange offers, and all references to “tendered shares” (and all similar references) shall mean and include shares tendered in both tender offers and exchange offers.
(e) For the purpose of any computation under Sections 14.06(c) and 14.06(d), the current market price (the “Current Market Price”) per share of Common Stock on any date shall be deemed to be the average of the daily Closing Prices for the ten consecutive Trading Days commencing 11 Trading Days before the record date with respect to distributions, issuances or other events requiring such computation under Section 14.06. For purposes of any computation under Section 14.06(d), the Current Market Price per share of Common Stock shall be deemed to be the arithmetic average of the daily Closing Prices for the ten consecutive Trading Days commencing on the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Date.
(f) For the purpose of this Section 14.06, “record date” shall mean, with respect to any dividend, distribution or other transaction or event in which the holders of Common Stock have the right to receive any cash, securities or other property or in which the Common Stock (or other applicable security) is exchanged for or converted into any combination of cash, securities or other property, the date fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to receive such cash, securities or other property (whether such date is fixed by the Board of Directors or by statute, contract or otherwise).
(g) In any case in which this Section 7.1(b) or 7.1(c) 14.06 shall require that an adjustment be made to the Conversion Price, no such adjustment shall be made ifin lieu of the foregoing adjustment, subject the Company may, at its option, distribute, concurrently with the distribution to the prior approval holders of applicable stock exchanges the Holder receives the rightsoutstanding Common Stock, options or warrants referred to in Section 7.1(b) or the share shares of Common Stock, rights, options, warrants, any shares of Capital Stock of the Company (other than Common Stock), evidences of indebtedness or other non-cash assets referred (or the fair market value, as reasonably determined by the Board of Directors of the Company, of the foregoing in cash) that such Holder of Securities would have been entitled to receive, as applicable, had such Security been converted immediately prior to the record date relating to the event that would have caused such adjustment (without regard to the Conversion Limitation).
(h) In any case in which this Section 14.06 shall require that an adjustment be made following a record date, an announcement date, or an Expiration Date, established for purposes of this Section 14.06, the Company may elect to defer (but only until five Business Days following the filing by the Company with the Trustee and the Conversion Agent of the certificate described in Section 7.1(c), as 14.09) issuing to the case may be, in Holder of any Security converted after such kind and number as it would have received if it had been a holder of Common Shares on the applicable record date or effective dateannouncement date or Expiration Date, as the case may be, by virtue shares of Common Stock and other Capital Stock of the Principal Sum having then been converted into Company issuable upon such conversion over and above the shares of Common Shares at Stock and other capital stock of the Company issuable upon such conversion only on the basis of the Conversion Price in effect on the applicable record or effective date, as the case may be;
(f) the adjustments provided for in this Section 7.1 are cumulative, and shallRate prior to adjustment; and, in lieu of the case shares the issuance of adjustments which is so deferred, the Company shall issue or cause its transfer agents to the Conversion Price be computed to the nearest whole cent and shall apply to successive subdivisions, redivisions, reductions, combinations, consolidations, distributions, issues issue due bills or other events resulting in any adjustment under appropriate evidence prepared by the provisions of this Section 7.1.

An adjustment made pursuant to this paragraph (i) shall become effective immediately after the effective date of such subdivision, redivision, change, reduction, combination or consolidation, as the case may be, shall in the case of the events referred to in (i) above, be decreased in proportion event retroactive to the number of outstanding Common Shares resulting from record date, if any, for such subdivision, redivision or change, or shall, in the case of the events referred to in event.
(ii) above, be increased in proportion to In case the number of outstanding Common Shares resulting from such reduction, combination or consolidation in each case by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect on such effective date by a fraction of which the numerator Issuer shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding immediately prior to such date and the denominator shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding immediately after such date. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever any event referred to in this Section 7.1(a) shall occur;
(b) if and whenever at any time during after the Adjustment Period, the Corporation shall fix a record date for the issuance of hereof issue rights, options or warrants to all or substantially all the holders of its outstanding Common Shares Stock entitling them, for a period expiring not more than 45 days after such record date, them to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Shares (or securities convertible or exchangeable into Common Shares) Stock at a price per share which is lower at the record date mentioned below than the higher (or having a conversion or exchange A) of the market price per shareshare of the Common Stock (as defined in Section (v) less than the Twenty Day Weighted Average Trading Price on such record date, below) and (B) the Conversion Price Price, then the number of shares of Common Stock thereafter purchasable upon conversion shall be adjusted immediately after such record date so that it shall equal the amount determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect on such record date number of shares of Common Stock theretofore purchasable upon conversion by a fraction, of which the numerator shall be the total number of shares of Common Shares Stock outstanding on such the record date multiplied by the Twenty Day Weighted Average Trading Price on such record date, less the fair market value (as determined by the Directors, subject for determining stockholders entitled to Section 7.4) of receive such rights, options or warrantswarrants plus the number of additional shares of Common Stock offered for subscription or purchase, and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on the record date for determining stockholders entitled to receive such rights, options or warrants plus the number of shares which the aggregate offering price of the total number of shares of Common Shares outstanding on Stock so offered would purchase at the current market price per share of Common Stock at such record date multiplied by such Twenty Day Weighted Average Trading Price provided that

Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever such an issuance is made. For the purposes of such adjustments, the shares of Common Stock that the holder of such rights, options, warrants, or convertible or exchangeable securities shall be entitled to subscribe for or purchase shall be deemed to be issued and outstanding on as of the date of such record date multiplied sale and issuance and the consideration received by the Twenty Day Weighted Average Trading Price Issuer therefor shall be deemed to be the consideration received by the Issuer, plus the consideration or premiums stated in such rights, options, warrants or convertible or exchangeable securities to be paid for the shares of Common Stock covered thereby. In case the issuer shall sell and issue shares of Common Stock or rights, options, warrants or convertible or exchangeable securities containing the right to subscribe for or purchase Common Stock, for a consideration consisting, in whole or in part, of property other than cash or its equivalent, then in determining the "price per share of Common Stock" and the "consideration received by the Issuer" for purposes of the first sentence of this Section (iv), the Board of Directors of the Issuer shall determine, on such record datea reasonable basis and in good faith, less the fair value of such property. In case the Issuer shall sell and issue rights, options, warrants or convertible or exchangeable securities containing the right to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock together with one or more other securities as part of a unit at a price per unit, then in determining the "price per share of Common Stock" and the consideration received by the Issuer for purposes of the first sentence of this Section (iv), the Board of Directors shall determine, on a reasonable basis and in good faith, the fair value of the rights, options, warrants or convertible or exchangeable securities then being sold as part of such unit.
(v) For the purpose of any computation under sections (ii) through (iv) above, the current market price per share of Common Stock at any date shall be the average of the current market value (of Common Stock for the 20 consecutive trading days commencing 30 trading days prior to such date; provided, that, if the Common Stock is not then publicly traded, the current market price per share shall be the average of the market value of the Common Stock of the last 20 consecutive trading days prior to the last day of trading; provided, however that such date is not earlier than 180 days prior to the date as of which such price is required to be determined, and otherwise such price shall be determined by an opinion of a nationally recognized independent investment bank selected by the Directorsmutual agreement of the Issuer and the Holder. In the case of rights, subject to Section 7.4 options, warrants or convertible or exchangeable securities, the price per share of Common Stock shall be determined by dividing (x) the total amount received or receivable by the Issuer in consideration of the sale and issuance of such rights, options, warrants or convertible or exchangeable securities, plus the total consideration payable to the Issuer upon exercise or conversion or exchange thereof, by (y) the total number of shares of Common Stock covered by such rights, options, warrants or convertible or exchangeable securities.
(vi) No adjustment in the number of shares of Common Stock convertible hereunder shall be required unless such adjustment would result in an increase or decrease of at least one percent (1%) of the number of shares of Common Stock for which shares of the Securities are convertible; provided, that any adjustments which by reason of this Section (vi) are not required to be made shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment.

(ii) the denominator of which shall be the sum of such number of shares and the total number of shares constituting such dividend or other distribution. Such reduction shall become effective immediately after the opening of business on the day following the Record Date. If any dividend or distribution of the type described in this Section 10.4(a) is declared but not so paid or made, redivide the Conversion Price shall again be adjusted to the Conversion Price which would then be in effect if such dividend or change its distribution had not been declared.

Adjustment of Conversion Price. The Conversion Price in effect at any date shall will be subject to adjustment from time to time as follows:
(a) if and whenever In case the Company shall at any time during or from time to time after the Adjustment Perioddate hereof (A) pay a dividend, or make a distribution, on the Corporation shall:
outstanding shares of Common Stock in shares of Common Stock; (iB) subdivide, redivide or change its subdivide the outstanding shares of Common Shares into a greater number Stock; (C) combine the outstanding shares of such shares; or
(ii) reduce, combine or consolidate its outstanding Common Shares Stock into a smaller number of such shares; (D) issue by reclassification of the shares of Common Stock any shares of Capital Stock of the Company, then, and in each such case, the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such event or the record date therefor, whichever is earlier, shall be adjusted so that the holder of any Note thereafter surrendered for conversion into Common Stock shall be entitled to receive, for each $100 of outstanding principal amount of Notes, the number of shares of Common Stock of the Company which such holder would have owned or have been entitled to receive after the happening of any of the events described above, had such $100 principal amount of Notes been surrendered for conversion immediately prior to the happening of such event or the record date therefor, whichever is earlier. An adjustment made pursuant to this clause (a) shall become effective (x) in the case of any such dividend or distribution, immediately after the close of business on the effective record date for the determination of holders of shares of Common Stock entitled to receive such dividend or distribution, or (y) in the case of such subdivision, redivisionreclassification or combination, change, reduction, combination or consolidation, as at the case may be, shall in close of business on the case of the events referred to in (i) above, be decreased in proportion to the number of outstanding Common Shares resulting from day upon which such subdivision, redivision or change, or shall, in the case of the events referred to in (ii) above, be increased in proportion to the number of outstanding Common Shares resulting from such reduction, combination or consolidation in each case by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect on such effective date by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding immediately prior to such date and the denominator shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding immediately after such datecorporate action becomes effective. Such No adjustment shall be made successively whenever pursuant to this clause (a) in connection with any event referred transaction to in this which Section 7.1(a10.6(e) shall occur;applies.
(b) if and whenever If at any time during following the Adjustment PeriodClosing Date, the Corporation Company shall fix a record date for the issuance issue shares of Common Stock (or rights, options warrants or warrants to all or substantially all the holders of its outstanding Common Shares entitling them, for a period expiring not more than 45 days after such record date, to subscribe for or purchase Common Shares (or other securities convertible into or exchangeable into for shares of Common SharesStock (collectively "CONVERTIBLE SECURITIES")) at a price per share (or having a conversion or exchange price per share) less than the Twenty Day Weighted Average Trading greater of (i) the Initial Conversion Price on and (ii) the Current Market Price per share of Common Stock as of the date of issuance of such record dateshares (or, in the case of Convertible Securities, less than the greater of (i) the Initial Conversion Price and (ii) the Current Market Price as of the date of issuance of the Convertible Securities in respect of which shares of Common Stock were issued), then the Conversion Price shall be adjusted immediately after such record date so that it shall equal the amount determined by multiplying (A) the Conversion Price in effect on the day immediately prior to such record date by (B) a fraction, the numerator of which the numerator shall be the sum of (1) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such date and (2) the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable at the greater of (i) the Initial Conversion Price and (ii) the then Current Market Price per share with the aggregate consideration receivable by the Company for the total number of shares of Common Shares Stock so issued (or into which the Convertible Securities may convert), and the denominator of which shall be the sum of (x) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such record date multiplied and (y) the number of additional shares of Common Stock issued (or into which the Convertible Securities may convert). An adjustment made pursuant to this Section 10.6(b) shall be made on the next Business Day following the date on which any such issuance is made and shall be effective retroactively to the close of business on the date of such issuance. For purposes of this Section 10.6(b), the aggregate consideration receivable by the Twenty Day Weighted Average Trading Price on such record date, less Company in connection with the fair market value issuance of shares of Common Stock or of Convertible Securities shall be deemed to be equal to the sum of the aggregate offering price (as determined by the Directors, subject before deduction of underwriting discounts or commissions and expenses payable to Section 7.4third parties) of all such rightsCommon Stock and Convertible Securities plus the minimum aggregate amount, options if any, payable upon exercise or warrants, and conversion of which the denominator shall be the total number any such Convertible Securities. The issuance or reissuance of any shares of Common Shares outstanding on such record date multiplied by such Twenty Day Weighted Average Trading Price provided that
Stock (whether treasury shares or newly issued shares) pursuant to (i) any a dividend or distribution on, or subdivision, combination or reclassification of, the outstanding shares of Common Shares owned by Stock requiring an adjustment in the Conversion Price pursuant to Section 10.6(b), or held for the account of the corporation or any subsidiary shall be deemed not to be outstanding for the purpose of any such computation;
(ii) any stock option plan, stock purchase plan or other benefit program of the Company or executive compensation package approved by the Company's Board of Directors involving the grant of options to employees or directors of the Company will not be deemed to constitute an issuance of Common Stock or Convertible Securities by the Company to which this Section 10.6(b) applies. Upon the expiration unexercised of any Convertible Securities for which an adjustment has been made pursuant to this Section 10.6(b), the adjustments shall forthwith be reversed to effect such rate of conversion as would have been in effect at the time of such expiration or termination had such Convertible Securities, to the extent outstanding immediately prior to such expiration or termination, never been issued. No adjustment shall be made successively whenever such a record date is fixed;
(iiipursuant to this Section 10.6(b) in connection with any transaction to the extent that any such rights, options or warrants are not exercised prior to the expiration thereof, the Conversion Price shall be readjusted to the Conversion Price which would then be in effect if such record date had not been fixed or to the Conversion Price which would then be in effect based upon the number of Common Shares (or securities convertible or exchangeable into Common SharesSection 10.6(e) actually issued upon the exercise of such rights, options or warrants, as the case may be;applies.
(c) if and whenever In case the Company shall at any time during or from time to time after the Adjustment Period date hereof declare, order, pay or make a dividend or other distribution (including, without limitation, any distribution of stock or other securities, evidences of indebtedness or property or Convertible Securities of the Corporation shall fix a record date for the making of a distribution to all Company or substantially all the holders any of its outstanding Common Shares Subsidiaries by way of (i) shares of any classdividend, whether of the Corporation spinoff, self-tender or any other corporation (including stock dividendsotherwise), (ii) rights, options or warrants (excluding those referred to in Section 7.1(b)); (iii) evidences of on its indebtedness or (iv) assets (including cash) of the CorporationCommon Stock, then, and in each such case, the Conversion Price shall be adjusted by multiplying (1) the applicable Conversion Price on the day immediately after prior to the record date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution by (2) a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the average Current Market Price of the Common Stock for the period of 20 Trading Days preceding such record date less the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors, a certified resolution with respect to which shall be mailed to each holder of Notes) of such dividend or distribution, and the denominator of which shall be such average Current Market Price of the Common Stock. The Company acknowledges that this Section 10.6(c) shall not constitute a waiver of Section 7.2 of this Agreement. No adjustment shall be made pursuant to this Section 10.6(c) in connection with any transaction to which Section 10.7 applies.
(d) In case a tender or exchange offer made by the Company or any Affiliate of the Company for all or any portion of the Common Stock shall expire and such tender or exchange offer shall involve the payment by the Company or such Affiliate of consideration per share of Common Stock having a Fair Market Value at the last time (the "EXPIRATION TIME") tenders or exchanges may be made pursuant to such tender or exchange offer (as it shall have been amended) that exceeds the Current Market Price per share of Common Stock on the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Time, the Conversion Price shall be reduced so that it the same shall equal the price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect on such record date immediately prior to the effectiveness of the Conversion Price reduction contemplated by this subsection (d) by a fraction, fraction (which shall not be greater than one) of which the numerator shall be the total number of Common Shares shares of Capital Stock outstanding on such record date (including any tendered or exchanged shares) at the Expiration Time multiplied by the Twenty Current Market Price per share of Common Stock on the Trading Day Weighted Average Trading Price on such record date, less next succeeding the fair market value (as determined by the Directors, subject to Section 7.4 of such shares, rights, options, warrants, evidences of indebtedness or assets so distributed, Expiration Time and of which the denominator shall be the total number sum of Common Shares outstanding on such record date multiplied by such Twenty Day Weighted Average Trading Price provided that:
(i) the Fair Market Value of the aggregate consideration payable to stockholders based on the acceptance (up to any maximum specified in the terms of the tender or exchange offer) of all shares validly tendered or exchanged and not withdrawn as of the Expiration Time (the shares deemed so accepted, up to any such maximum, being referred to as the "PURCHASED SHARES") and (ii) the product of the number of shares of Capital Stock outstanding (less any Purchased Shares) at the Expiration Time and the Current Market Price per share of Common Shares Stock on the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Time, such reduction to become retroactively effective immediately prior to the opening of business on the day following the Expiration Time.
(e) Any recapitalization, reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale of all or a substantial portion of the Company's assets to another Person or other transaction which is effected in such a manner that holders of Common Stock are entitled to receive (either directly or upon subsequent liquidation) stock, securities or assets with respect to or in exchange for Common Stock is referred to herein as a "MAJOR TRANSACTION". Prior to the consummation of any Major Transaction, the Company shall make appropriate provisions (in form and substance satisfactory to the holders of a majority of the outstanding principal amount of the Notes) to insure that each of the holders of the Notes shall thereafter have the right to acquire and receive, in lieu of or in addition to (as the case may be) the shares of Common Stock immediately theretofore acquirable and receivable upon the conversion of such holder's Notes, such shares of stock, securities or assets as such holder would have received in connection with such Major Transaction if such holder had converted its Notes immediately prior to such Major Transaction. In each such case, the Company shall also make appropriate provisions (in form and substance satisfactory to the holders of a majority of the outstanding principal amount of the Notes) to insure that the provisions of this Section 10.6 shall thereafter be applicable to the Notes (including, in the case of any such consolidation, merger or sale in which the successor entity or purchasing entity is other than the Company, an immediate adjustment of the Conversion Price to the value for the Common Stock reflected by the terms of such consolidation, merger or sale, and a corresponding immediate adjustment in the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable and receivable upon conversion of the Notes, in each case if the value so reflected is less than the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such consolidation, merger or sale). The Company shall not effect any such consolidation, merger or sale, unless prior to the consummation thereof, the successor corporation (if other than the Company) resulting from consolidation or merger or the corporation purchasing such assets assumes by written instrument (in form reasonably satisfactory to the holders of a majority of the outstanding principal amount of the Notes then outstanding), the obligation to deliver to each such holder such shares of stock, securities or assets as, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, such holder may be entitled to acquire.
(f) If any event occurs of the type contemplated by the provisions of this Section 10.6 but not expressly provided for by such provisions (including, without limitation, the granting of stock appreciation rights, phantom stock rights or other rights with equity features), then the Company's Board of Directors shall make an appropriate adjustment in the Conversion Price so as to protect the rights of the holders of Notes; provided that no such adjustment shall increase the Conversion Price as otherwise determined pursuant to this Section 10.6 or decrease the number of shares of Common Stock of the Company issuable upon conversion of each Note.
(g) For purposes of this Section 10.6, the number of shares of Common Stock at any time outstanding shall not include any shares of Common Stock then owned or held by or held for the account of the Corporation Company.
(h) Anything in this Section 10.6 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company shall not be required to give effect to any adjustment in the Conversion Price unless and until the net effect of one or any subsidiary more adjustments (each of which shall be deemed not carried forward), determined as above provided, shall have resulted in a change of the Conversion Price by at least one percent, and when the cumulative net effect of more than one adjustment so determined shall be to change the Conversion Price by at least one percent, such change in Conversion Price shall thereupon be outstanding given effect.
(i) The certificate of any firm of independent public accountants of recognized national standing selected by the Board of Directors (which may be the firm of independent public accountants regularly employed by the Company) shall be presumptively correct for any computation made under this Section 10.6.
(j) If the Company shall take a record of the holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of any such computation;
(ii) such adjustment shall be made successively whenever such entitling them to receive a record date is fixed;
(iii) to the extent that such distribution is not so made, the Conversion Price shall be readjusted to the Conversion Price which would then be in effect if such record date had not been fixed or to the Conversion Price which would then be in effect based upon such shares or rights, options or warrants or evidences of indebtedness or assets actually distributed, as the case may be;
(d) if and whenever at any time during the Adjustment Period, there is a reclassification of the Common Shares or a capital reorganization of the Corporation other than as described in Section 7.1(a) or a consolidation, amalgamation, arrangement or merger of the Corporation with or into any other body corporate, trust, partnership dividend or other entitydistribution, or a sale or conveyance of the property and assets of the Corporation as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to any other body corporate, trust, partnership or other entity, the Holder shall, upon the exercise of the Conversion Right, be entitled to receive and shall acceptthereafter and before the distribution to stockholders thereof legally abandon its plan to pay or deliver such dividend or distribution, then thereafter no adjustment in lieu of the number of shares then sought to be acquired by it, the number of Common Shares or other securities or property of the Corporation or of the body corporate, trust, partnership or other entity resulting from such merger, amalgamation, arrangement or consolidation, or to which such sale or conveyance may be made, as the case may be, that the Holder would have been entitled to receive on such reclassification, capital reorganization, consolidation, amalgamation, arrangement or merger, sale or conveyance, if, on the record date or the effective date thereof, as the case may be, the Holder had been the registered holder of the number of Common Shares sought to be acquired by it and to which it was entitled to acquire Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Conversion Right and a contemporaneous and equal adjustment shall be made to the Conversion Price;
(e) right of conversion granted by this Section 10.6 or in any case in which Section 7.1(b) or 7.1(c) require that an adjustment be made to the Conversion Price, no such adjustment shall be made if, subject to the prior approval of applicable stock exchanges the Holder receives the rights, options or warrants referred to in Section 7.1(b) or the share rights, options, warrants, evidences of indebtedness or assets referred to in Section 7.1(c), as the case may be, in such kind and number as it would have received if it had been a holder of Common Shares on the applicable record date or effective date, as the case may be, by virtue of the Principal Sum having then been converted into Common Shares at the Conversion Price then in effect on the applicable record or effective date, as the case may be;
(f) the adjustments provided for in this Section 7.1 are cumulative, and shall, in the case of adjustments to the Conversion Price shall be computed to the nearest whole cent and shall apply to successive subdivisions, redivisions, reductions, combinations, consolidations, distributions, issues or other events resulting in any adjustment under the provisions of this Section 7.1.
(g) if, in the opinion required by reason of the Directors, the provisions taking of this Section 7.1 are not strictly applicable, or if strictly applicable would not fairly protect the rights of the Holder in accordance with the intent and purposes hereof, the Directors shall make any adjustment in such provisions for the benefit of the Holder as the Directors deem appropriaterecord.

(b) if If and whenever at any time during prior to the Adjustment PeriodTime of Expiry the Corporation shall fix a record date for the payment of a cash dividend or distribution to the holders of all or substantially all of the outstanding Common Shares in respect of any applicable period, the Conversion Price shall be adjusted immediately after such record date so that it shall be equal to the price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect on such record date by a fraction, of which the denominator shall be the Current Market Price per Common Share on such record date and of which the numerator shall be the Current Market Price per Common Share on such record date minus the amount in cash per Common Share distributed to holders of Common Shares. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever such a record date is fixed. To the extent that any such cash dividend or distribution is not paid, the Conversion Price shall be re-adjusted to the Conversion Price which would then be in effect if such record date had not been fixed.
(c) If and whenever at any time prior to the Time of Expiry the Corporation shall fix a record date for the issuance of rightsoptions, options rights or warrants to all or substantially all the holders of its outstanding Common Shares entitling them, for a period expiring not more than 45 days after such record date, to subscribe for or purchase Common Shares (or securities convertible or exchangeable into Common Shares) at a price per share (or having a conversion or exchange price per share) less than 95% of the Twenty Day Weighted Average Trading Current Market Price of a Common Share on such record date, the Conversion Price shall be adjusted immediately after such record date so that it shall equal the amount determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect on such record date by a fraction, of which the numerator shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date multiplied by the Twenty Day Weighted Average Trading Price on such record date, less the fair market value (as determined by the Directors, subject to Section 7.4) of such rights, options or warrants, and of which the denominator shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date multiplied by such Twenty Day Weighted Average Trading Price provided that
(i) any Common Shares owned by or held for the account of the corporation or any subsidiary shall be deemed not to be outstanding for the purpose of any such computation;
(ii) such adjustment shall be made successively whenever such a record date is fixed;
(iii) to the extent that any such rights, options or warrants are not exercised prior to the expiration thereof, the Conversion Price shall be readjusted to the Conversion Price which would then be in effect if such record date had not been fixed or to the Conversion Price which would then be in effect based upon the number of Common Shares (or securities convertible or exchangeable into Common Shares) actually issued upon the exercise of such rights, options or warrants, as the case may be;
(c) if and whenever at any time during the Adjustment Period the Corporation shall fix a record date for the making of a distribution to all or substantially all the holders of its outstanding Common Shares of (i) shares of any class, whether of the Corporation or any other corporation (including stock dividends), (ii) rights, options or warrants (excluding those referred to in Section 7.1(b)); (iii) evidences of its indebtedness or (iv) assets (including cash) of the Corporation, then, in each such case, the Conversion Price shall be adjusted immediately after such record date so that it shall equal the price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect on such record date by a fraction, of which the numerator shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date multiplied plus a number of Common Shares equal to the number arrived at by dividing the Twenty Day Weighted Average Trading aggregate price of the total number of additional Common Shares offered for subscription or purchase (or the aggregate conversion or exchange price of the convertible securities so offered) by such Current Market Price on such record date, less the fair market value (as determined by the Directors, subject to Section 7.4 of such shares, rights, options, warrants, evidences of indebtedness or assets so distributedper Common Share, and of which the denominator shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date multiplied by such Twenty Day Weighted Average Trading Price provided that:
(i) plus the total number of additional Common Shares owned by offered for subscription or held for purchase (or into which the account of the Corporation or any subsidiary shall be deemed not to be outstanding for the purpose of any such computation;
(ii) such convertible securities so offered are convertible). Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever such a record date is fixed;
(iii) to . To the extent that any such distribution is options, rights or warrants are not so madeissued or any such options, rights or warrants are not exercised prior to the expiration thereof, the Conversion Price shall be readjusted re- adjusted to the Conversion Price which would then be in effect if such record date had not been fixed or to the Conversion Price which would then be in effect based upon the number of Common Shares (or securities convertible into Common Shares) actually issued upon the exercise of such shares or rightsoptions, options rights or warrants or evidences of indebtedness or assets actually distributedwere included in such fraction, as the case may be;be.
(d) if If and whenever at any time during prior to the Adjustment PeriodTime of Expiry, there is a reclassification of the Common Shares or a capital reorganization of the Corporation other than as described in Section 7.1(a4.6(a) or a consolidation, amalgamation, arrangement or arrangement, binding share exchange, merger of the Corporation with or into any other body corporate, trust, partnership Person or other entityentity or acquisition of the Corporation or other combination pursuant to which the Common Shares are converted into or acquired for cash, securities or other property; or a sale or conveyance of the property and assets of the Corporation as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to any other body corporate, trust, partnership Person (other than a direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Corporation) or other entityentity or a liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Corporation, any Holder shallof a Debenture who has not exercised its right of conversion prior to the date of such reclassification, capital reorganization, consolidation, amalgamation, arrangement, merger, share exchange, acquisition, combination, sale or conveyance or liquidation, dissolution or winding-up, upon the exercise of the Conversion Rightsuch right thereafter, shall be entitled to receive and shall accept, in lieu of the number of shares Common Shares then sought to be acquired by it, such amount of cash or the number of Common Shares shares or other securities or property of the Corporation or of the body corporate, trust, partnership Person or other entity resulting from such merger, amalgamation, arrangement arrangement, acquisition, combination or consolidation, or to which such sale or conveyance may be mademade or which holders of Common Shares receive pursuant to such liquidation, dissolution or winding-up, as the case may be, that the such Holder of a Debenture would have been entitled to receive on such reclassification, capital reorganization, consolidation, amalgamation, arrangement or arrangement, merger, share exchange, acquisition, combination, sale or conveyanceconveyance or liquidation, dissolution or winding-up, if, on the record date or the effective date thereofof this Indenture, as the case may be, the Holder had been the registered holder Holder of the number of Common Shares sought to be acquired by it and to which it was entitled to acquire upon the exercise of the Conversion Right and a contemporaneous and equal adjustment shall be made conversion right. If determined appropriate by the Board of Directors, to give effect to or to evidence the Conversion Price;
(e) in any case in which provisions of this Section 7.1(b) 4.6(d), the Corporation, its successor, or 7.1(c) require that an adjustment be made to the Conversion Price, no such adjustment shall be made if, subject to the prior approval of applicable stock exchanges the Holder receives the rights, options purchasing Person or warrants referred to in Section 7.1(b) or the share rights, options, warrants, evidences of indebtedness or assets referred to in Section 7.1(c)other entity, as the case may be, shall, prior to or contemporaneously with any such reclassification, capital reorganization, consolidation, amalgamation, arrangement, merger, share exchange, acquisition, combination, sale or conveyance or liquidation, dissolution or winding-up, enter into an indenture which shall provide, to the extent possible, for the application of the provisions set forth in such kind this Indenture with respect to the rights and number interests thereafter of the Holder of Debentures to the end that the provisions set forth in this Indenture shall thereafter correspondingly be made applicable, as it would have received if it had been nearly as may reasonably be, with respect to any cash, shares or other securities or property to which a holder Holder of Common Shares Debentures is entitled on the applicable record date exercise of its acquisition rights thereafter. Any indenture entered into between the Corporation and the Trustee pursuant to the provisions of this Section 4.6(d) shall be a supplemental indenture entered into pursuant to the provisions of Section 12.4. Any indenture entered into between the Corporation, any successor to the Corporation or effective datesuch purchasing Person or other entity and the Trustee shall provide for adjustments which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided in this Section 4.6(d) and which shall apply to successive reclassifications, as capital reorganizations, amalgamations, consolidations, mergers, share exchanges, acquisitions, combinations, sales or conveyances. Nothing in this Section 4.6(d) shall affect or reduce the case may be, by virtue requirement for any Person to make a Change of Control Purchase Offer.
(e) If the Corporation shall make a distribution to all holders of shares in the capital of the Principal Sum having Corporation, other than Common Shares, or evidences of indebtedness or other assets of the Corporation, including securities (but excluding (x) any issuance of rights or warrants for which an adjustment was made pursuant to Section 4.5(c), and (y) any dividend or distribution paid exclusively in cash for which an adjustment was made pursuant to Section 4.5(b) (the “Distributed Securities”), then been in each such case (unless the Corporation distributes such Distributed Securities to the holders of Debentures on such dividend or distribution date (as if each Holder had converted such Debenture into Common Shares at immediately preceding the record date with respect to such distribution)) the Conversion Price in effect immediately preceding the ex-distribution date fixed for the dividend or distribution shall be adjusted so that the same shall equal the price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect immediately preceding such ex-distribution date by a fraction of which the denominator shall be the VWAP for the Common Shares for the five consecutive trading days immediately prior to the ex-distribution date and of which the numerator shall be the VWAP for the Common Shares for the first five consecutive trading days that occur immediately following ex-distribution date. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever any such distribution is made and shall become effective five Business Days immediately following the ex-distribution date. In the event that such dividend or distribution is not so paid or made, the Conversion Price shall again be adjusted to be the Conversion Price that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the securities distributed by the Corporation to all holders of its Common Shares consist of capital stock of, or similar equity interests in, a Subsidiary or other business of the Corporation (the “Spinoff Securities”), the Conversion Price shall be adjusted, unless the Corporation makes an equivalent distribution to the holders of Debentures, so that the same shall be equal to the rate determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect on the applicable record date fixed for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such distribution by a fraction, the denominator of which shall be the sum of: (A) the VWAP for the Common Shares for the 20 consecutive trading day period (the “Spinoff Valuation Period”) commencing on and including the fifth trading day after the date on which ex-dividend trading commences for such distribution on a Recognized Stock Exchange or effective date, market on which the Common Shares are then listed or quoted and (B) the product of: (i) the weighted average trading price (calculated in substantially the same way as the case Current Market Price is calculated for the Common Shares) over the Spinoff Valuation Period of the Spinoff Securities or, if no such prices are available, the Fair Market Value of the Spinoff Securities (which determination shall be conclusive and shall be evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Trustee) multiplied by (ii) the number of Spinoff Securities distributed in respect of one Common Share and the numerator of which shall be the VWAP for the Common Shares for the Spinoff Valuation Period, such adjustment to become effective immediately preceding the opening of business on the 25th trading day after the date on which ex-dividend trading commences; provided, however, that the Corporation may be;in lieu of the foregoing adjustment elect to make adequate provision so that each Holder of Debentures shall have the right to receive upon conversion thereof the amount of such Spinoff Securities that such Holder of Debentures would have received if such Debentures had been converted on the record date with respect to such distribution.
(f) If any issuer bid made by the adjustments Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries for all or any portion of Common Shares shall expire, then, if the issuer bid shall require the payment to shareholders of consideration per Common Share having a Fair Market Value (determined as provided for in this Section 7.1 are cumulativebelow) that exceeds the Current Market Price per Common Share on the last date (the “Expiration Date”) tenders could have been made pursuant to such issuer bid (as it may be amended) (the last time at which such tenders could have been made on the Expiration Date is hereinafter sometimes called the “Expiration Time”), and shall, in the case of adjustments to the Conversion Price shall be computed adjusted so that the same shall equal the rate determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect immediately preceding the close of business on the Expiration Date by a fraction of which: (i) the denominator shall be the sum of (A) the Fair Market Value of the aggregate consideration (which determination shall be conclusive evidence of such Fair Market Value and which shall be evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate delivered to the nearest whole cent Trustee) payable to shareholders based on the acceptance (up to any maximum specified in the terms of the issuer bid) of all Common Shares validly tendered and not withdrawn as of the Expiration Time (the Common Shares deemed so accepted, up to any such maximum, being referred to as the “Purchased Common Shares”) and (B) the product of the number of Common Shares outstanding (less any Purchased Common Shares and excluding any Common Shares held in the treasury of the Corporation) at the Expiration Time and the Current Market Price per Common Share on the Expiration Date and (ii) the numerator of which shall apply be the product of the number of Common Shares outstanding (including Purchased Common Shares but excluding any Common Shares held in the treasury of the Corporation) at the Expiration Time multiplied by the Current Market Price per Common Share on the Expiration Date, such increase to successive subdivisionsbecome effective immediately preceding the opening of business on the day following the Expiration Date. In the event that the Corporation is obligated to purchase Common Shares pursuant to any such issuer bid, redivisionsbut the Corporation is permanently prevented by applicable law from effecting any or all such purchases or any or all such purchases are rescinded, reductionsthe Conversion Price shall again be adjusted to be the Conversion Price which would have been in effect based upon the number of Common Shares actually purchased, combinations, consolidations, distributions, issues or other events resulting in any adjustment under if any. If the provisions application of this clause (f) of Section 7.1.4.6 to any issuer bid would result in a decrease in the Conversion Price, no adjustment shall be made for such issuer bid under this clause (f).

Adjustment of Conversion Price. The Conversion Price in effect at any date shall be subject to adjustment adjusted (without duplication) from time to time by the Company and the Parent as follows:
(a) if and whenever at any time during In case the Adjustment Period, the Corporation shall:
Parent shall (i) subdividepay a dividend or other distribution in shares of Common Stock to all holders of Common Stock, redivide or change (ii) subdivide its outstanding Common Shares Stock into a greater number of such shares; or
shares or (iiiii) reduce, combine or consolidate its outstanding Common Shares Stock into a smaller number of such shares; the Conversion Price in effect on the effective date of such subdivision, redivision, change, reduction, combination or consolidation, as the case may be, shall in the case of the events referred to in (i) above, be decreased in proportion to the number of outstanding Common Shares resulting from such subdivision, redivision or change, or shall, in the case of the events referred to in (ii) above, be increased in proportion to the number of outstanding Common Shares resulting from such reduction, combination or consolidation in each case by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect on such effective date by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding immediately prior to such date and the denominator shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding immediately after such date. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever any event referred to in this Section 7.1(a) shall occur;
(b) if and whenever at any time during the Adjustment Period, the Corporation shall fix a record date for the issuance of rights, options or warrants to all or substantially all the holders of its outstanding Common Shares entitling them, for a period expiring not more than 45 days after such record date, to subscribe for or purchase Common Shares (or securities convertible or exchangeable into Common Shares) at a price per share (or having a conversion or exchange price per share) less than the Twenty Day Weighted Average Trading Price on such record date, the Conversion Price shall be adjusted immediately after such record date so that the Holder of any Security thereafter surrendered for conversion shall be entitled to receive the number of shares of Common Stock which it shall equal would have owned or been entitled to receive had such Security been converted immediately prior to the amount determined by multiplying happening of such event. For the purposes of calculating the Conversion Price in effect on such adjustment pursuant to this Section 10.05(a), Holders of a Security shall be treated as if they had the right to convert the Security solely into Common Stock at the then applicable Conversion Price. An adjustment made pursuant to this Section 10.05(a) shall become effective immediately after the record date by in the case of a fractiondividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of subdivision, of which combination or reclassification.
(b) In case the numerator Parent shall be the total number issue to all holders of Common Shares outstanding on Stock rights, warrants or options entitling such record holders (for a period commencing no earlier than the date multiplied by of distribution and expiring not more than 60 days after the Twenty Day Weighted Average date of distribution) to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock (or securities convertible into Common Stock) at a price per share less than the average Common Stock Price for the 10 Trading Price on such record date, less Days immediately preceding the fair market value (as determined by date the Directors, subject to Section 7.4) distribution of such rights, warrants or options or warrants, and of which was first publicly announced by the denominator shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date multiplied by such Twenty Day Weighted Average Trading Price provided that
(i) any Common Shares owned by or held for the account of the corporation or any subsidiary shall be deemed not to be outstanding for the purpose of any such computation;
(ii) such adjustment shall be made successively whenever such a record date is fixed;
(iii) to the extent that any such rights, options or warrants are not exercised prior to the expiration thereofParent, the Conversion Price shall be readjusted to decreased so that the Conversion Price which would then be in effect if such record date had not been fixed or to the Conversion Price which would then be in effect based upon the number of Common Shares (or securities convertible or exchangeable into Common Shares) actually issued upon the exercise of such rights, options or warrants, as the case may be;
(c) if and whenever at any time during the Adjustment Period the Corporation shall fix a record date for the making of a distribution to all or substantially all the holders of its outstanding Common Shares of (i) shares of any class, whether of the Corporation or any other corporation (including stock dividends), (ii) rights, options or warrants (excluding those referred to in Section 7.1(b)); (iii) evidences of its indebtedness or (iv) assets (including cash) of the Corporation, then, in each such case, the Conversion Price shall be adjusted immediately after such record date so that it shall equal the price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the record date for such issue by a fraction,
(i) the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such date of public announcement, plus the number of shares which the aggregate subscription or purchase price for the total number of shares of Common Stock offered by the rights, warrants or options so issued (or the aggregate conversion price of the convertible securities offered by such rights, warrants or options) would purchase at such average Common Stock Price, and
(ii) the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such date of public announcement plus the number of additional shares of Common Stock offered by such rights, warrants or options (or into which the convertible securities so offered by such rights, warrants or options are convertible); provided that no adjustment will be made if Holders of the Securities may participate in the transaction on a basis and with notice that the Parent's Board of Directors determines to be fair and appropriate. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever any such rights, warrants or options are issued, and shall become effective immediately after such record date. If at the end of the period during which such rights, warrants or options are exercisable not all rights, warrants or options shall have been exercised, the adjusted Conversion Price shall be immediately readjusted to what it would have been upon application of the foregoing adjustment substituting the number of additional shares of Common Stock actually issued (or the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of convertible securities actually issued) for the total number of shares of Common Stock offered (or convertible securities offered).
(c) In case the Parent shall distribute to all holders of Common Stock any shares of Capital Stock of the Parent (other than Common Stock) or evidences of its indebtedness, other securities or other assets, or shall distribute to all holders of Common Stock, rights, warrants or options to subscribe for or purchase any of its securities (excluding (i) those rights, options and warrants referred to in Section 10.05(b); (ii) those dividends, distributions, subdivisions and combinations referred to in Section 10.05(a); and (iii) those dividends and distributions paid in cash referred to in Section 10.05(e)), then in each such case the Conversion Price shall be decreased so that the same shall equal the price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the date of such distribution by a fraction,
(i) the numerator of which shall be the Market Price on the record date for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive such distribution less the fair market value on such record date (as determined by a fractionthe Parent's Board of Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive evidence of such fair market value) of the portion of the Capital Stock or evidences of indebtedness, securities or assets so distributed or of such rights, warrants or options, in each case applicable to one share of Common Stock, and
(ii) the denominator of which the numerator shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date multiplied by the Twenty Day Weighted Average Trading Market Price on such record date, less such adjustment to become effective immediately after the fair market value (as determined by the Directors, subject to Section 7.4 of such shares, rights, options, warrants, evidences of indebtedness or assets so distributed, and of which the denominator shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date multiplied by for such Twenty Day Weighted Average Trading Price provided that:
(i) Common Shares owned by or held for distribution; provided, that if the account numerator of the Corporation or any subsidiary shall be deemed not to be outstanding for foregoing fraction is less than $1.00 (including a negative amount), then in lieu of the purpose of any such computation;
(ii) such adjustment foregoing adjustment, adequate provision shall be made successively whenever so that each Holder shall have the right to receive upon conversion, in addition to the cash and Common Stock issuable upon such a conversion, the distribution such Holder would have received had such Holder converted its Security solely into Common Stock at the then applicable Conversion Price immediately prior to the record date is fixed;for such distribution; provided, further, that no adjustment will be made if Holders of the Securities may participate in the transaction on a basis and with notice that the Parent's Board of Directors determines to be fair and appropriate.
(iiid) In case the Parent or any Subsidiary of the Parent makes a payment to Holders of Common Stock in respect of a tender or exchange offer other than an odd-lot offer, for the Parent's Common Stock to the extent that such distribution is the offer involves aggregate consideration that, together with any cash and the Fair Market Value of any other consideration payable in respect of any tender or exchange offer by the Parent of any of its Subsidiaries for shares of the Parent's Common Stock consummated within the preceding 12 months not so madetriggering a Conversion Price adjustment, exceeds an amount equal to 12.5% of the market capitalization of the Parent's Common Stock on the expiration date of the tender offer, the Conversion Price shall be readjusted to decreased so that the same shall equal the price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the expiration time of such tender or exchange offer (the "Expiration Time") by a fraction,
(i) the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (including any tendered or exchanged shares) at the Expiration Time multiplied by the Common Stock Price on the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Time, and
(ii) the denominator of which shall be the sum of (x) the fair market value (determined as aforesaid) of the aggregate consideration payable to holders of Common Stock based on the acceptance (up to any maximum specified in the terms of the tender or exchange offer) of all shares of Common Stock validly tendered or exchanged and not withdrawn as of the Expiration Time (the shares deemed so accepted up to any such maximum being referred to as the "Purchased Shares") and (y) the product of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (less any Purchased Shares) at the Expiration Time and the Common Stock Price on the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Time, such adjustment to become effective immediately prior to the opening of business on the day following the Expiration Time. If the Parent is obligated to purchase shares pursuant to any such tender or exchange offer, but the Parent is permanently prevented by applicable law from effecting any such purchases or all such purchases are rescinded, the Conversion Price shall again be adjusted to be the Conversion Price that would then be in effect if such record date tender or exchange offer had not been fixed made.
(e) In case the Parent shall declare a cash dividend or cash distribution to all of the holders of Common Stock, the Conversion Price shall be decreased so that the Conversion Price shall equal the price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the record date for such dividend or distribution by a fraction,
(i) the numerator of which shall be the average of the Common Stock Price for the three consecutive Trading Days ending on the Trading Day immediately preceding the record date for such dividend or distribution (the "Pre-Dividend Sale Price"), minus the full amount of such cash dividend or cash distribution applicable to one share of Common Stock, and
(ii) the denominator of which shall be the Pre-Dividend Sale Price, such adjustment to become effective immediately after the record date for such dividend or distribution; provided no adjustment to the Conversion Price which or the ability of a Holder of a Security to convert will be made if the Parent provides that Holders of Securities will participate in the cash dividend or cash distribution without conversion; provided further, that if the numerator of the foregoing fraction is less than $1.00 (including a negative amount), then in lieu of the foregoing adjustment, adequate provision shall be made so that each Holder shall have the right to receive upon conversion, in addition to the cash and Common Stock issuable upon such conversion, the amount of cash such Holder would have received had such Holder converted its Security immediately prior to the record date for such cash dividend or cash distribution at the Conversion Rate and for the Conversion Value in effect at such time. If such cash dividend or cash distribution is not so paid or made, the Conversion Price shall again be adjusted to be the Conversion Price that would then be in effect based upon if such shares dividend or rights, options or warrants or evidences of indebtedness or assets actually distributed, as the case may be;distribution had not been declared.
(df) if and whenever at any If the rights provided for in the Parent's Rights Agreement dated as of October 5, 1996 (as amended from time during to time, the Adjustment Period"Stockholder Rights Plan"), there is a reclassification have separated from the Common Stock in accordance with the provisions of the Common Shares or a capital reorganization Stockholder Rights Plan so that the Holders of the Corporation other than as described in Section 7.1(a) or a consolidation, amalgamation, arrangement or merger of the Corporation with or into any other body corporate, trust, partnership or other entity, or a sale or conveyance of the property and assets of the Corporation as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to any other body corporate, trust, partnership or other entity, the Holder shall, upon the exercise of the Conversion Right, Securities would not be entitled to receive and shall acceptany rights in respect of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Securities, the Conversion Price will be adjusted as provided in Section 10.05(c) above, subject to readjustment in the event of the expiration, termination or redemption of the rights. In lieu of any such adjustment, the Parent may amend the Stockholder Rights Plan to provide that upon conversion of the Securities the Holders will receive, in lieu of addition to the number of shares then sought to be acquired by itcash and Common Stock issuable upon such conversion, the number of Common Shares or other securities or property of the Corporation or of the body corporate, trust, partnership or other entity resulting from rights such merger, amalgamation, arrangement or consolidation, or to which such sale or conveyance may be made, as the case may be, that the Holder would have been entitled received had such holder converted its Security solely into Common Stock at the then applicable Conversion Price and the rights had not become separated from the Common Stock under the Stockholder Rights Plan. To the extent that the Parent adopts any future rights plan, upon conversion of the Securities, Holders will receive, in addition to receive on the cash and Common Stock issuable upon such reclassification, capital reorganization, consolidation, amalgamation, arrangement or merger, sale or conveyance, if, on the record date or the effective date thereof, as the case may beconversion, the Holder had been rights under the registered holder future rights plan in respect of the number shares of Common Shares sought to be acquired by it Stock such Holder would have received had such holder converted its Security solely into Common Stock at the then applicable Conversion Price, whether or not the rights have separated from the Common Stock at the time of conversion, and to which it was entitled to acquire upon the exercise of the Conversion Right and a contemporaneous and equal no adjustment shall be made to the Conversion Price;Price will be made in connection with any distribution of rights thereunder.
(eg) in In any case in which this Section 7.1(b) or 7.1(c) 10.05 shall require that an adjustment be made immediately following a record date established for purposes of this Section 10.05, the Parent may elect to defer (but only until five Business Days following the filing by the Company with the Trustee of the certificate described in Section 10.09) issuing to the Conversion Price, no such adjustment shall be made if, subject to the prior approval of applicable stock exchanges the Holder receives the rights, options or warrants referred to in Section 7.1(b) or the share rights, options, warrants, evidences of indebtedness or assets referred to in Section 7.1(c), as the case may be, in such kind and number as it would have received if it had been a holder of any Security converted after such record date the cash, shares of Common Shares Stock and other Capital Stock of the Parent issuable upon such conversion over and above the cash, shares of Common Stock and other Capital Stock of the Parent issuable upon such conversion only on the applicable record date or effective date, as the case may be, by virtue basis of the Principal Sum having then been converted into Common Shares at the Conversion Price prior to adjustment; and, in effect on lieu of the applicable record cash and shares the issuance of which is so deferred, the Company shall issue or effective date, as cause its transfer agents to issue due bills or other appropriate evidence of the case may be;right to receive such shares.
(fh) the adjustments provided for in this Section 7.1 are cumulative, and shall, in the case of adjustments to Before taking any action which would cause an adjustment decreasing the Conversion Price so that the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Securities would be computed to issued for less than the nearest whole cent par value of such Common Stock, the Parent will take all corporate action which may be necessary in order that the Parent may validly and shall apply to successive subdivisions, redivisions, reductions, combinations, consolidations, distributions, issues or other events resulting in any adjustment under the provisions legally issue fully paid and non-assessable shares of this Section 7.1such Common Stock at such adjusted Conversion Price."

, or (iiiii) reduce, combine consolidate or consolidate reclassify its outstanding Common Shares into a smaller number of such shares; , the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such event shall be adjusted so that the holder of the Series B Preferred Shares thereafter converted shall be entitled to receive the number of A Common Shares of the Company which it would have owned or have been entitled to receive after the happening of such event had the Series B Preferred Shares been converted immediately prior to the happening of such event. An adjustment made pursuant to this paragraph shall become effective immediately after the record date in the case of a dividend or distribution and shall become effective on the effective date of such subdivision, redivision, change, reduction, combination or consolidation, as the case may be, shall in the case of subdivision, combination or reclassification. If any dividend or distribution is not paid or made, the events referred to Conversion Price then in effect shall be appropriately readjusted.

Adjustment of Conversion Price. The Conversion Price in effect at any date shall be subject to adjustment adjusted from time to time by the Company as follows:
(a) if and whenever Upon the completion of the first Offering that is executed at a price per Depositary Unit that is less than $_________1 (as adjusted for splits, reverse splits and/or stock dividends effected prior to the date of such Offering in respect of the Depositary Units - any time during such adjustment to be determined by the Adjustment PeriodCompany in good faith, absent manifest error), the Corporation shall:Conversion Price will be adjusted so that it equals 115% of the price per Depositary Unit at which Depositary Units were offered (as reflected on the applicable registration statement) by the Company in the Offering. If (and only if) no Offering occurs within 18 months after the date Notes are first issued hereunder, the Conversion Price will adjusted so that it equals 115% of the arithmetic average of the VWAP per Depositary Unit of the Depositary Units on the thirty (30) Trading Days ending on October 5, 2008; provided that after giving effect to such adjustment, the Conversion Price as adjusted would be less than $132.595 (as adjusted for splits, reverse splits and/or stock dividends effected prior to the date of such Offering in respect of the Depositary Units - any such adjustment to be determined by the Company in good faith, absent manifest error). Notwithstanding the preceding contingent adjustments, in no event will the Conversion Price be adjusted pursuant to this Section 12.11(a) to a Conversion Price that is less than $105.00 (as adjusted for splits, reverse splits, and/or stock dividends effected prior to the date of such Offering in respect of the Depositary Units - any such adjustment to be determined by the Company in good faith, absent manifest error) per Depositary Unit.
(b) In case the Company shall (i) subdividepay a dividend on its Depositary Units in Depositary Units, redivide or change (ii) make a distribution on its Depositary Units in Depositary Units, (iii) subdivide its outstanding Common Shares Depositary Units into a greater number of such shares; or

Holder of any Note thereafter surrendered for conversion shall be entitled to receive that number of Depositary Units which it would have owned had such Note been converted immediately prior to the effective date happening of such subdivision, redivision, change, reduction, combination or consolidation, as event. An adjustment made pursuant to this subsection (c) shall become effective immediately after the case may be, shall record date in the case of a dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the events referred to in (i) above, be decreased in proportion to the number of outstanding Common Shares resulting from such subdivision, redivision or change, or shall, effective date in the case of subdivision or combination.
(c) In case the events referred Company shall issue or declare rights, options or warrants (other than pursuant to in a Poison Pill) to all holders of its Depositary Units entitling them (for a period commencing no earlier than the record date described below and expiring not more than 60 days after such record date) to subscribe for or purchase Depositary Units (or securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Depositary Units) at a price per unit (or having a conversion, exercise or exchange price per unit) less than the Current Market Price per Depositary Unit on the record date with respect to such issuance, (or if no such record date is fixed, the Business Day immediately prior to the date of announcement of such issuance) (treating the conversion, exercise or exchange price per unit of the securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Depositary Units as equal to (x) the sum of (i) the price for a unit of the security convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Depositary Units and (ii) above, be increased in proportion to any additional consideration initially payable upon the conversion of such security into or exercise or exchange of such security for Depositary Units divided by (y) the number of outstanding Common Shares resulting from Depositary Units initially underlying such reductionsecurity), combination or consolidation the Conversion Price in each case effect shall be adjusted so that the same shall equal the price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect at the opening of business on the date after such effective record date (or if no such record date is fixed, the applicable Business Day) by a fraction of which:
(1) the numerator of which shall be the number of Depositary Units outstanding on the close of business on the record date (or is no such record date is fixed, the date of announcement of such issuance), plus the number of units which the numerator shall be aggregate offering price of the total number of Common Shares outstanding immediately prior to units so offered for subscription or purchase (or the aggregate conversion, exercise or exchange price of the securities so offered) would purchase at such date and Current Market Price per Depositary Unit; and
(2) the denominator of which shall be the number of Depositary Units outstanding at the close of business on the record date (or is no such record date is fixed, the date of announcement of such issuance), plus the total number of Common Shares outstanding immediately after such dateadditional Depositary Units so offered for subscription or purchase (or into which the securities so offered are convertible, exercisable or exchangeable). Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever any event referred to in this Section 7.1(a) shall occur;
(b) if and whenever at any time during the Adjustment Period, the Corporation shall fix a record date for the issuance of such rights, options or warrants to all or substantially all are issued, and shall become effective on the holders day following the date of its outstanding Common Shares entitling them, for a period expiring not more than 45 days after announcement of such record date, to subscribe for or purchase Common Shares issuance. To the extent that Depositary Units (or securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable into Common Sharesfor Depositary Units) at a price per share (or having a conversion or exchange price per share) less than the Twenty Day Weighted Average Trading Price on such record date, the Conversion Price shall be adjusted immediately after such record date so that it shall equal the amount determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect on such record date by a fraction, of which the numerator shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date multiplied by the Twenty Day Weighted Average Trading Price on such record date, less the fair market value (as determined by the Directors, subject are not delivered pursuant to Section 7.4) of such rights, options or warrants, and upon the expiration or termination of which the denominator shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date multiplied by such Twenty Day Weighted Average Trading Price provided that
(i) any Common Shares owned by or held for the account of the corporation or any subsidiary shall be deemed not to be outstanding for the purpose of any such computation;
(ii) such adjustment shall be made successively whenever such a record date is fixed;
(iii) to the extent that any such rights, options option or warrants are not exercised prior to the expiration thereof, the Conversion Price shall be readjusted to the Conversion Price which would then be in effect if had the adjustments made upon the issuance of such record date had rights, options or warrants been made on the basis of the delivery of only the number of Depositary Units (or securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Depositary Units) actually delivered. In the event that such rights, options or warrants are not been fixed or so issued, the Conversion Price shall again be adjusted to be the Conversion Price which would then be in effect based upon if the announcement of such issuance had not been made.
(d) In case the Company shall declare a distribution in respect of its Depositary Units of any Capital Stock of the Company (other than Depositary Units), evidences of indebtedness or other non-cash assets (including securities of any person other than AREP but excluding (1) dividends or distributions paid exclusively in cash, (2) dividends or distributions referred to in Section 12.11(b) or (3) distributions made in connection with the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company), or shall declare a distribution to all holders of its Depositary Units of rights, options or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any of its securities (excluding those rights, options and warrants referred to in Section 12.11(c) and also excluding the distribution of rights to all holders of Depositary Units pursuant to a Poison Pill or the detachment of such rights to the extent set forth in the second following paragraph), then in each such case the Conversion Price shall be adjusted so that the same shall equal the price determined by multiplying the current Conversion Price by a fraction of which:
(1) the numerator of which shall be the Current Market Price per Depositary Unit on such record date, less the fair market value on such record date (as determined by the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive evidence of such fair market value and which shall be evidenced by an Officers’ Certificate delivered to Trustee) of the portion of the distributed assets so distributed applicable to one Depositary Unit (determined on the basis of the number of Common Shares Depositary Units outstanding on the record date); and
(2) the denominator of which shall be such Current Market Price per Depositary Unit on such record date mentioned below. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever any such distribution is made and shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such distribution. Subject to the terms of the first paragraph of this Section 12.11(d):
(i) in the event that the Company has in effect a preferred shares/units rights plan (“Poison Pill”), upon conversion of the Notes into Depositary Units, to the extent that the Poison Pill is still in effect upon such conversion, the Holders will receive, in addition to the Depositary Units, the rights described therein (whether or not the rights have separated from the Depositary Units at the time of conversion), subject to the limitations set forth in the Poison Pill. If the Poison Pill provides that upon separation of rights under such plan from the Company’s Depositary Units that the Holders would not be entitled to receive any such rights in respect of the Depositary Units issuable upon conversion of the Notes, the Conversion Price will be adjusted as provided in this Section 12.11(d) (with such separation deemed to be the distribution of such rights), subject to readjustment in the event of the expiration, termination or redemption of the rights. Any distribution of rights or warrants pursuant to a Poison Pill that would allow a Holder to receive upon conversion, in addition to the Depositary Units, the rights described therein (whether or not the rights have separated from the Depositary Units at the time of conversion), shall not constitute a distribution of rights, options or warrants pursuant to this Article 12.
(ii) Rights, options or warrants distributed by the Company to all holders of Depositary Units entitling the holders thereof to subscribe for or purchase Capital Stock (either initially or under certain circumstances), which rights, options or warrants, until the occurrence of a specified event or events (“Trigger Event”): (A) are deemed to be transferred with such Depositary Units; (B) are not exercisable; and (C) are also issued in respect of future issuances of Depositary Units, shall be deemed not to have been distributed for purposes of this Section 12.11 (and no adjustment to the Conversion Price under this Section 12.11 will be required) until the occurrence of the earliest Trigger Event, whereupon such rights, options and warrants shall be deemed to have been distributed and an appropriate adjustment (if any is required) to the Conversion Price shall be made under this Section 12.11(d). If any such right or warrant, including any such existing rights, options or warrants distributed prior to the date of this Indenture, are subject to events, upon the occurrence of which such rights, options or warrants become exercisable to purchase different securities, evidences of indebtedness or other assets, then the date of the occurrence of any and each such event shall be deemed to be the date of distribution and record date in respect of new rights, options or warrants with such rights (and a termination or expiration of the existing rights, options or warrants without exercise by any of the holders thereof). In addition, in the event of any distribution (or securities convertible deemed distribution) of rights, options or exchangeable into Common Shareswarrants, or any Trigger Event or other event (of the type described in the preceding sentence) actually issued in respect thereof that was counted for purposes of calculating a distribution amount for which an adjustment to the Conversion Price under this Section 12.11 was made, in the case of any such rights, options or warrants which shall all have been redeemed or repurchased without exercise by any holders thereof, the Conversion Price shall be readjusted upon such final redemption or repurchase to give effect to such distribution or Trigger Event, as the exercise case may be, as though it were a cash distribution, equal to the per unit redemption or repurchase price received by a holder or holders of Depositary Units in respect of such rights, options or warrants, as the case may be;
warrants (c) if and whenever at any time during the Adjustment Period the Corporation shall fix a record date for the making of a distribution to all or substantially all the holders of its outstanding Common Shares of (i) shares of any class, whether of the Corporation or any other corporation (including stock dividends), (ii) assuming such holder had retained such rights, options or warrants warrants), made to all holders of Depositary Units as of the date of such redemption or repurchase.

(1) the numerator shall be the total product of the number of Common Shares Depositary Units outstanding on such record date (including Purchased Depositary Units (as defined below) but excluding any units held in the treasury of the Company) immediately prior to the Expiration Time multiplied by the Twenty Day Weighted Average Trading Current Market Price per Depositary Unit (as determined in accordance with Section 12.11(f)); and
(2) the denominator shall be the sum of (x) the aggregate consideration (determined as set forth below) payable to stockholders of the Company based on the acceptance (up to any maximum specified in the terms of the tender offer) of all units validly tendered and not withdrawn as of the Expiration Time (the units deemed so accepted, up to any such record datemaximum, being referred to as the “Purchased Depositary Units”) and (y) the product of the number of Depositary Units outstanding (less any Purchased Depositary Units and excluding any units held in the treasury of the Company) immediately prior to the Expiration Time and the Current Market Price per Depositary Unit (as determined in accordance with Section 12.11(f)). For purposes of this Section 12.11(e), the aggregate consideration in any such tender offer shall equal the sum of the aggregate amount of cash consideration and the aggregate fair market value (as determined by the Board of Directors, subject to Section 7.4 of such shares, rights, options, warrants, evidences of indebtedness or assets so distributed, and of which the denominator whose determination shall be conclusive evidence thereof and which shall be evidenced by an Officers’ Certificate delivered to the total number Trustee) of Common Shares outstanding on any other consideration payable in such record date multiplied tender offer. In the event that the Company is obligated to purchase units pursuant to any such tender offer, but the Company is permanently prevented by applicable law from effecting any or all such Twenty Day Weighted Average Trading Price provided that:
(i) Common Shares owned by or held for the account of the Corporation purchases or any subsidiary shall be deemed not to be outstanding for the purpose of any or all such computation;

(iiic) In case the Company shall, by dividend or otherwise, distribute to all holders of its Common Stock, cash (excluding (x) any regular cash dividend on the Common Stock to the extent that the aggregate cash dividend per share of Common Stock in any four fiscal quarters does not exceed the greater of (A) the amount per share of Common Stock of the cash dividend on the Common Stock for the preceding four fiscal quarters to the extent that such dividend for the preceding four fiscal quarters did not require any adjustment of the Conversion Price pursuant to this Section 4.06(c) (as adjusted to reflect subdivisions or combinations of the Common Stock), and (B) 3.75% of the arithmetic average of the Closing Prices (as set forth in Section 4.06(g)) during the ten Trading Days immediately prior to the date of declaration of such dividend, (y) any dividend or distribution in connection with the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary, and (z) any cash that is distributed as part of a distribution requiring a Conversion Price adjustment pursuant to Section 4.06(e)), then, in such case, the Conversion Price shall be decreased so that the same shall equal the price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the record date of such action by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the Current Market Price of the Class A Common Stock on such record date less the amount of cash so distributed (and not excluded as provided above) applicable to one share of Common Stock and the denominator shall be Current Market Price of the Class A Common Stock on such record date, such decrease shall be effective immediately prior to the opening of business on the day following the record date of such action; provided, however, that in the event the portion of cash so distributed applicable to one share of Common Stock is equal to or greater than the Current Market Price of the Class A Common Stock on such record date, in lieu of the foregoing adjustment, adequate provision shall be made so that each Holder shall have the right to receive upon conversion the amount of cash such Holder would have received had such Holder converted each Note on the record date. In the event that such dividend or distribution is not so paid or made, the Conversion Price shall again be readjusted adjusted to be the Conversion Price which would then be in effect if such record date dividend or distribution had not been fixed declared. If any adjustment is required to be made as set forth in this Section 4.06(c) as a result of a distribution that is a regular dividend, such adjustment shall be based upon the amount by which such distribution exceeds the amount of the regular cash dividend permitted to be excluded pursuant hereto. If an adjustment is required to be made as set forth in this Section 4.06(c) above as a result of a distribution that is not a regular dividend, such adjustment shall be based upon the full amount of the distribution.
(d) In case a tender or exchange offer made by the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company for all or any portion of the Common Stock shall expire and such tender or exchange offer (as amended upon the expiration thereof) shall require the payment to stockholders of consideration per share of Common Stock having a fair market value (as determined by the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive and described in a Board Resolution) that, as of the last time (the "Expiration Time") tenders or exchanges may be made pursuant to such tender or exchange offer (as it may be amended), exceeds the Current Market Price of the Class A Common Stock on the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Time, the Conversion Price shall be decreased so that the same shall equal the price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the Expiration Time by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the product of the number of Class A Common Stock outstanding (including any tendered or exchanged shares) on the Expiration Time multiplied by the Current Market Price of the Class A Common Stock on the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Time, less the fair market value (determined as aforesaid) of the aggregate consideration payable to stockholders based on the acceptance (up to any maximum specified in the terms of the tender or exchange offer) of all shares validly tendered or exchanged and not withdrawn as of the Expiration Time (the shares deemed so accepted, up to any such maximum, being referred to as the "Purchased Shares") and the denominator shall be the product of the number of Class A Common Stock outstanding (less any Purchased Shares) on the Expiration Time and the Current Market Price of the Class A Common Stock on the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Time, such reduction to become effective immediately prior to the opening of business on the day following the Expiration Time. In the event that the Company is obligated to purchase shares pursuant to any such tender or exchange offer, but the Company is permanently prevented by applicable law from effecting any such purchases or all such purchases are rescinded, the Conversion Price shall again be adjusted to be the Conversion Price which would then be in effect based upon if such tender or exchange offer has not been made.
(e) In case the Company shall distribute to all or substantially all holders of its Class A Common Stock any shares or rightsof capital stock of the Company (other than Class A Common Stock), options or warrants or evidences of indebtedness or other non-cash assets actually distributed(including securities of any Person), or shall distribute to all holders of its Class A Common Stock rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any of its securities (excluding those referred to in subsection (b) of this Section 4.06), then in each such case the Conversion Price shall be adjusted so that the same shall equal the price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect as the case may be;
(d) if and whenever at any time during the Adjustment Period, there is a reclassification of the Common Shares or close of business on the record date for such distribution by a capital reorganization fraction of which the numerator shall be the Current Market Price of the Corporation other than Class A Common Stock on the record date mentioned below less the fair market value on such record date (as described reasonably determined by the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive evidence of such fair market value and set forth in Section 7.1(aa Board Resolution delivered to the Trustee in an Officers' Certificate) or a consolidation, amalgamation, arrangement or merger of the Corporation with or into any other body corporateportion of the capital stock, trust, partnership evidences of indebtedness or other entity, assets so distributed or a sale of such rights or conveyance warrants applicable to one share of Class A Common Stock (determined on the property and assets of the Corporation as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to any other body corporate, trust, partnership or other entity, the Holder shall, upon the exercise of the Conversion Right, be entitled to receive and shall accept, in lieu basis of the number of shares then sought to of Class A Common Stock outstanding on the record date), and of which the denominator shall be acquired by it, the number Current Market Price per share (as determined in accordance with subsection (g) of Common Shares or other securities or property this Section 4.06) of the Corporation or Class A Common Stock on such record date. Such adjustment shall become effective as of the body corporate, trust, partnership or other entity resulting from such merger, amalgamation, arrangement or consolidation, or to which such sale or conveyance may be made, as the case may be, that the Holder would have been entitled to receive on such reclassification, capital reorganization, consolidation, amalgamation, arrangement or merger, sale or conveyance, if, close of business on the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such distribution. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Company shall distribute rights or the effective date thereof, as the case may bewarrants (other than those referred to in subsection (b) of this Section 4.06) ("Rights") pro rata to holders of Class A Common Stock, the Holder had been Company may, in lieu of making any adjustment pursuant to this Section 4.06, make proper provision so that each holder of a Note who converts such Note (or any portion thereof) after the registered record date for such distribution and prior to the expiration or redemption of the Rights shall be entitled to receive upon such conversion, in addition to the shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon such conversion (the "Conversion Shares"), a number of Rights to be determined as follows: (i) if such conversion occurs on or prior to the date for the distribution to the holders of Rights of separate certificates evidencing such Rights (the "Distribution Date"), the same number of Rights to which a holder of a number of shares of Class A Common Stock equal to the number of Conversion Shares is entitled at the time of such conversion in accordance with the terms and provisions of and applicable to the Rights and (ii) if such conversion occurs after the Distribution Date, the same number of Rights to which a holder of the number of shares of Class A Common Shares sought to be acquired by it and to Stock into which it was entitled to acquire upon the exercise principal amount of the Conversion Right Note so converted was convertible as of the close of business on the Distribution Date would have been entitled on the Distribution Date in accordance with the terms and provisions of and applicable to the Rights.

(i) subdivide, redivide or change its outstanding Common Shares into a greater number of such shares; or
(ii) reducein Common Shares, combine or consolidate its outstanding Common Shares into a smaller number of such shares; the Conversion Price in effect at the opening of business on the effective date following the date fixed for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such subdivision, redivision, change, reduction, combination dividend or consolidation, as the case may be, other distribution shall in the case of the events referred to in (i) above, be decreased in proportion to the number of outstanding Common Shares resulting from such subdivision, redivision or change, or shall, in the case of the events referred to in (ii) above, be increased in proportion to the number of outstanding Common Shares resulting from such reduction, combination or consolidation in each case reduced by multiplying the such Conversion Price in effect on such effective date by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding immediately prior to at the close of business on the Record Date (as defined in Section 12.05(g)) fixed for such date determination and the denominator shall be the sum of such number of shares and the total number of Common Shares outstanding shares constituting such dividend or other distribution, such reduction to become effective immediately after such datethe opening of business on the day following the Record Date. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever If any event referred to dividend or distribution of the type described in this Section 7.1(a12.05(a) shall occur;
(b) if and whenever at any time during the Adjustment Period, the Corporation shall fix a record date for the issuance of rights, options is declared but not so paid or warrants to all or substantially all the holders of its outstanding Common Shares entitling them, for a period expiring not more than 45 days after such record date, to subscribe for or purchase Common Shares (or securities convertible or exchangeable into Common Shares) at a price per share (or having a conversion or exchange price per share) less than the Twenty Day Weighted Average Trading Price on such record datemade, the Conversion Price shall again be adjusted immediately after such record date so that it shall equal the amount determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect on such record date by a fraction, of which the numerator shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date multiplied by the Twenty Day Weighted Average Trading Price on such record date, less the fair market value (as determined by the Directors, subject to Section 7.4) of such rights, options or warrants, and of which the denominator shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date multiplied by such Twenty Day Weighted Average Trading Price provided that
(i) any Common Shares owned by or held for the account of the corporation or any subsidiary shall be deemed not to be outstanding for the purpose of any such computation;
(ii) such adjustment shall be made successively whenever such a record date is fixed;
(iii) to the extent that any such rights, options or warrants are not exercised prior to the expiration thereof, the Conversion Price shall be readjusted to the Conversion Price which would then be in effect if such record date dividend or distribution had not been declared.
(b) If the outstanding Common Shares shall be subdivided into a greater number of Common Shares, the Conversion Price in effect at the opening of business on the day following the day upon which such subdivision becomes effective shall be proportionately reduced, and, conversely, if the outstanding Common Shares shall be combined into a smaller number of Common Shares, the Conversion Price in effect at the opening of business on the day following the day upon which such combination becomes effective shall be proportionately increased, such reduction or increase, as the case may be, to become effective immediately after the opening of business on the day following the day upon which such subdivision or combination becomes effective.
(c) If the Company shall issue rights or warrants to all or substantially all holders of its outstanding Common Shares entitling them for a period of not more than 60 days to subscribe for or purchase Common Shares, or securities convertible into Common Shares, at a price per share or Conversion Price per share less than the Current Market Price (as defined in Section 12.05(e)) on the Record Date fixed for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants, the Conversion Price shall be adjusted so that the same shall equal the price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect at the opening of business on the date after such Record Date by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of Common Shares outstanding at the close of business on the Record Date plus the number of shares which the aggregate offering price of the total number of shares so offered would purchase at such Current Market Price, and of which the denominator shall be the number of Common Shares outstanding on the close of business on the Record Date plus the total number of additional Common Shares so offered for subscription or purchase. Such adjustment shall become effective immediately after the opening of business on the day following the Record Date fixed for determination of shareholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants. To the extent that Common Shares are not delivered pursuant to such rights or warrants, upon the expiration or termination of such rights or warrants the Conversion Price shall be readjusted to be the Conversion Price which would then be in effect based had the adjustments made upon the issuance of such rights or warrants been made on the basis of delivery of only the number of Common Shares (actually delivered. If such rights or securities convertible warrants are not so issued, the Conversion Price shall again be adjusted to be the Conversion Price which would then be in effect if such date fixed for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such rights or exchangeable into warrants had not been fixed. In determining whether any rights or warrants entitle the holders to subscribe for or purchase Common Shares at less than such Current Market Price, and in determining the aggregate offering price of such Common Shares) actually issued upon the exercise of , there shall be taken into account any consideration received for such rights, options rights or warrants, as with the case may be;value of such consideration, if other than cash, to be determined by the Board of Directors.

If such dividend or distribution is not so paid or made, the Conversion Price shall again be adjusted to be the Conversion Price which would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared. If the Board of Directors determines the fair market value of any distribution for purposes of this Section 12.05(d) by reference to the actual or when issued trading market for any securities comprising all or part of such distribution, it must in doing so consider the prices in such market over the same period used in computing the Current Market Price pursuant to Section 12.05(e) to the extent possible. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 12.05(d) to the contrary, rights, warrants, evidences of indebtedness, other securities, cash or other assets (including, without limitation, any rights distributed pursuant to any shareholder rights plan) shall be deemed not to have been distributed for purposes of this Section 12.05(d) if the Company makes proper provision so that each holder of Convertible Notes who converts a Convertible Note (or any portion thereof) after the date fixed for determination of shareholders entitled to receive such distribution shall be entitled to receive upon such conversion, in addition to the Common Shares issuable upon such conversion, the amount and kind of such distributions that such holder would have been entitled to receive if such holder had, immediately prior to such determination date, converted such Convertible Note into Common Shares. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 12.05(d), if, prior to the date that is five years from the last date of original issuance of the Convertible Notes, which would include the date of the exercise of the option granted to the Initial Purchasers, holders of Convertible Notes would otherwise be entitled to receive, upon conversion of the notes, Ineligible Consideration pursuant to the operation of this Section 12.05(d), such holders shall not be entitled to receive such Ineligible Consideration but the Company or its successor, as the case may be, shall have the right to deliver either such Ineligible Consideration or "prescribed securities" as defined for purposes of Clause 212(1)(b)(vii)(E) of the Income Tax Act (Canada) with a comparable fair market value to such Ineligible Consideration. Rights or warrants distributed by the Company to all holders of Common Shares entitling the holders thereof to subscribe for or purchase shares of the Company's capital stock (either initially or under certain circumstances), which rights or warrants, until the occurrence of a specified event or events: (i) are deemed to be transferred with such Common Shares; (ii) are not exercisable; and (iii) are also issued in respect of future issuances of Common Shares, shall be deemed not to have been distributed for purposes of this Section 12.05(d) (and no adjustment to the Conversion Price under this Section 12.05(d) shall be made). For purposes of this Section 12.05(d) and Sections 12.05(a) and (c), any dividend or distribution to which this Section 12.05(d) is applicable that also includes Common Shares, or rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase Common Shares to which Section 12.05(c) applies (or both), shall be deemed instead to be (1) a dividend or distribution of the evidences of indebtedness, assets, shares of capital stock, rights or warrants other than such Common Shares or rights or warrants to which Section 12.05(c) applies (and any Conversion Price reduction required by this Section 12.05(d) with respect to such dividend or distribution shall then be made) immediately followed by (2) a dividend or distribution of such Common Shares or such rights or warrants (and any further Conversion Price reduction required by Sections 12.05(a) and (c) with respect to such dividend or distribution shall then be made, except that (A) the Record Date of such dividend or distribution shall be substituted as "the date fixed for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such dividend or other distribution", "Record Date fixed for such determination" and "Record Date" within the meaning of Section 12.05(a) and as "the date fixed for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants", "the Record Date fixed for the determination of the shareholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants" and "such Record Date" within the meaning of Section 12.05(c) and (B) any Common Shares included in such dividend or distribution shall not be deemed "outstanding at the close of business on the date fixed for such determination" within the meaning of Section 12.05(a)).
(e) If the Company shall, by dividend or otherwise, distribute cash to all holders of its Common Shares (excluding any cash that is distributed upon an amalgamation, merger, share exchange, consolidation or combination to which Section 12.06 applies or as part of a distribution referred to in Section 12.05(d)) in an aggregate amount that, combined together with (1) the aggregate amount of any other such all-cash distributions to all holders of its Common Shares within the 12 months preceding the date of payment of such distribution, and in respect of which no adjustment pursuant to this Section 12.05(e) has been made, and (2) the aggregate of any cash plus the fair market value (as determined by the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive and described in a resolution of the Board of Directors) of consideration payable in respect of any tender offers (within the meaning of U.S. federal securities laws) by the Company or any of its subsidiaries for all or any portion of the Common Shares concluded within the 12 months preceding the date of payment of such distribution, and in respect of which no adjustment pursuant to Section 12.05(f) has been made, exceeds 15% of the product of the Current Market Price (determined as provided in Section 12.05(g)) on the Record Date with respect to such distribution times the number of Common Shares outstanding on such date, then, and in each such case, immediately after the close of business on such record date date, the Conversion Price shall be reduced so that it the same shall equal the price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the close of business on such record date Record Date by a fraction, fraction (i) the numerator of which the numerator shall be equal to the total Current Market Price on the Record Date less an amount equal to the quotient of (x) the excess of such combined amount over such 15% and (y) the number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date multiplied by the Twenty Day Weighted Average Trading Record Date and (ii) the denominator of which shall be equal to the Current Market Price on such record dateRecord Date; provided, less however, that if the portion of the cash so distributed applicable to one Common Share is equal to or greater than the Current Market Price of the Common Shares on the Record Date, in lieu of the foregoing adjustment, adequate provision shall be made so that each holder of Convertible Notes shall have the right to receive upon conversion of a Convertible Note (or any portion thereof) the amount of cash such holder would have received had such holder converted such Convertible Note (or portion thereof) immediately prior to such Record Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, prior to the date that is five years from the last date of original issuance of the Convertible Notes, which would include the date of the exercise of the option granted to the Initial Purchasers, holders of Convertible Notes would otherwise be entitled to receive, upon conversion of the notes, Ineligible Consideration pursuant to the operation of this Section 12.05 (e), such holders shall not be entitled to receive such Ineligible Consideration but the Company or its successor, as the case may be, shall have the right to deliver either such Ineligible Consideration or "prescribed securities" as defined for purposes of Clause 212(1)(b)(vii)(E) of the Income Tax Act (Canada) with a comparable fair market value (as determined by the Directors, subject to Section 7.4 of such shares, rights, options, warrants, evidences of indebtedness Ineligible Consideration. If such dividend or assets so distributed, and of which the denominator shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date multiplied by such Twenty Day Weighted Average Trading Price provided that:
(i) Common Shares owned by or held for the account of the Corporation or any subsidiary shall be deemed not to be outstanding for the purpose of any such computation;
(ii) such adjustment shall be made successively whenever such a record date is fixed;
(iii) to the extent that such distribution is not so paid or made, the Conversion Price shall again be readjusted adjusted to be the Conversion Price which would then be in effect if such record date dividend or distribution had not been fixed or declared. Any cash distribution to all holders of Common Shares as to which the Conversion Price Company makes the election permitted by Section 12.05(m) and as to which would then the Company has complied with the requirements of such Section shall be in effect based upon such shares or rights, options or warrants or evidences treated as not having been made for all purposes of indebtedness or assets actually distributed, as the case may be;this Section 12.05(e).
(df) if and whenever at If a tender offer (within the meaning of U.S. federal securities laws) made by the Company or any time during the Adjustment Period, there is a reclassification of its subsidiaries for all or any portion of the Common Shares or a capital reorganization expires and such tender offer (as amended upon the expiration thereof) requires the payment to shareholders (based on the acceptance (up to any maximum specified in the terms of the Corporation other than tender offer) of Purchased Shares (as defined below)) of an aggregate consideration having a fair market value (as determined by the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive and described in Section 7.1(a) or a consolidation, amalgamation, arrangement or merger resolution of the Corporation Board of Directors) that, combined together with or into any other body corporate, trust, partnership or other entity, or a sale or conveyance (1) the aggregate of the property cash plus the fair market value (as determined by the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive and assets described in a resolution of the Corporation as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to any other body corporate, trust, partnership or other entity, the Holder shall, upon the exercise Board of the Conversion Right, be entitled to receive and shall accept, in lieu of the number of shares then sought to be acquired by it, the number of Common Shares or other securities or property of the Corporation or of the body corporate, trust, partnership or other entity resulting from such merger, amalgamation, arrangement or consolidation, or to which such sale or conveyance may be made, as the case may be, that the Holder would have been entitled to receive on such reclassification, capital reorganization, consolidation, amalgamation, arrangement or merger, sale or conveyance, if, on the record date or the effective date thereof, as the case may be, the Holder had been the registered holder of the number of Common Shares sought to be acquired by it and to which it was entitled to acquire upon the exercise of the Conversion Right and a contemporaneous and equal adjustment shall be made to the Conversion Price;
(e) in any case in which Section 7.1(b) or 7.1(c) require that an adjustment be made to the Conversion Price, no such adjustment shall be made if, subject to the prior approval of applicable stock exchanges the Holder receives the rights, options or warrants referred to in Section 7.1(b) or the share rights, options, warrants, evidences of indebtedness or assets referred to in Section 7.1(cDirectors), as of the case may beexpiration of such tender offer, of consideration payable in such kind and number as it would have received if it had been a holder respect of Common Shares on the applicable record date or effective date, as the case may beany other tender offers, by virtue the Company or any of its subsidiaries for all or any portion of the Principal Sum having then been converted into Common Shares at Shares, expiring within the Conversion Price 12 months preceding the expiration of such tender offer and in effect on the applicable record or effective date, as the case may be;
