Related to Adjustments to Applicable Conversion Values

• Adjustments to Conversion Price (a) If the Company shall at any time while this Debenture is outstanding subdivide the outstanding shares of its Common Stock, the Conversion Price then in effect immediately before that subdivision shall be proportionately decreased, and if the Company shall at any time while this Debenture is outstanding combine the outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Price then in effect immediately before that combination shall be proportionately increased. Except as otherwise provided below, any adjustment under this Section 5.3 shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective. A dividend on any security of the Company payable in Common Stock, or a split of the Company's Common Stock, shall be considered a subdivision of Common Stock for purposes of this Section 5.3 at the close of business on the record date with respect to such dividend or stock split. A reverse split of the Company's Common Stock shall be considered a combination of Common Stock for purposes of this Section 5.3 at the close of business on the record date with respect to such reverse stock split. (b) In the event the Company, at any time or from time to time while this Debenture is outstanding, shall make or issue, or fix a record date for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution with respect to the Company's Common Stock payable in securities of the Company other than shares of Common Stock, then and in each such event, provisions shall be made so that the Holder shall receive upon conversion hereof, in addition to the number of shares of Common Stock receivable thereupon, the amount of securities of the Company which he would have received had this Debenture been converted into Common Stock on the date of such event and had the Holder thereafter, during the period from the date of such event to and including the conversion date, retained such securities receivable by him. (c) If while this Debenture is outstanding, the Shares issuable upon conversion of this Debenture shall be changed into the same or a different number of shares of any other class or classes of stock of the Company, whether by recapitalization, reclassification or other exchange (other than a subdivision or combination of shares, or a capital reorganization, merger or sale of assets, provided for elsewhere in this Section 5.3), the Holder shall, upon the conversion of this Debenture, be entitled to receive, in lieu of the Shares which the Holder would have become entitled to receive but for such change, a number of shares of such other class or classes of stock that would have been subject to receipt by the Holder if he had exercised his right of conversion of this Debenture immediately before that change. (d) If while this Debenture is outstanding, there shall be a merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another corporation (other than a merger which does not result in any reclassification, conversion, exchange or cancellation of outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company), or the sale of all or substantially all of the Company's properties and assets to any other person, then, as a part of such merger, consolidation or sale, lawful provision shall be made so that the Holder shall thereafter be entitled to receive upon conversion of this Debenture, during the period specified in this Debenture, the number of shares of stock or other securities or property of the Company, or of the successor corporation resulting from such merger, consolidation or sale, to which a holder of the Shares deliverable upon conversion of this Debenture would have been entitled on such merger, consolidation or sale if this Debenture had been converted immediately before such merger, consolidation or sale. In any such case, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions of this Section 5.3 with respect to the rights of the Holder after such merger, consolidation or sale to the end that the provisions of this Section 5.3 (including adjustments of the Conversion Price then in effect and number of shares purchasable upon conversion of this Debenture) shall continue to be applicable after that event and shall be as nearly equivalent to the provisions hereof as may be practicable. (e) The Company shall promptly and in any case not later than ten (10) days after the date of any adjustment of the Conversion Price give written notice of such adjustment and the number of Shares or other securities issuable upon conversion of this Debenture, by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to the registered Holder at the Holder's address as shown on the Debenture Register. The certificate shall state such adjustment and show in reasonable detail the facts on which such adjustment is based. (f) The form of this Debenture need not be changed because of any adjustment in the Conversion Price or in the number of Shares issuable upon its conversion. A Debenture issued after any adjustment on any partial conversion or upon replacement may continue to express the same Conversion Price and the same number of Shares (appropriately reduced in the case of partial conversion) as are stated on this Debenture as initially issued, and that Conversion Price and that number of Shares shall be considered to have been so changed as of the close of business on the date of the adjustment.

• Adjustments to Conversion Ratios The number of Ordinary Shares that the holders of Rights are entitled to receive as a result of the occurrence of an Exchange Event shall be equitably adjusted to reflect appropriately the effect of any share split, reverse share split, share dividend, reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, combination, exchange of shares or other like change with respect to the Ordinary Shares occurring on or after the date hereof and prior to the Exchange Event.

• Adjustments to Number of Shares The number of shares of Common Stock subject to this Option shall be adjusted to take into account any stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalization of the Common Stock as provided in the Stock Option Plan.

• Adjustments to Exchange Ratio The Exchange Ratio shall be adjusted to reflect appropriately the effect of any stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend (including any dividend or distribution of securities convertible into Parent Common Stock or Company Common Stock), reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification or other like change with respect to Parent Common Stock or Company Common Stock occurring on or after the date hereof and prior to the Effective Time.

• Adjustment of Conversion Rate The Conversion Rate shall be adjusted from time to time by the Company if any of the following events occurs, except that the Company shall not make any adjustments to the Conversion Rate if Holders of the Notes participate (other than in the case of (x) a share split or share combination or (y) a tender or exchange offer), at the same time and upon the same terms as holders of the Common Stock and solely as a result of holding the Notes, in any of the transactions described in this Section 14.04, without having to convert their Notes, as if they held a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate, multiplied by the principal amount (expressed in thousands) of Notes held by such Holder. (a) If the Company exclusively issues shares of Common Stock as a dividend or distribution on shares of the Common Stock, or if the Company effects a share split or share combination, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted based on the following formula: where, CR0 = the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date of such dividend or distribution, or immediately prior to the open of business on the Effective Date of such share split or share combination, as applicable; CR’ = the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the open of business on such Ex-Dividend Date or Effective Date; OS0 = the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the open of business on such Ex-Dividend Date or Effective Date (before giving effect to any such dividend, distribution, split or combination); and OS’ = the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such dividend, distribution, share split or share combination. Any adjustment made under this Section 14.04(a) shall become effective immediately after the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution, or immediately after the open of business on the Effective Date for such share split or share combination, as applicable. If any dividend or distribution of the type described in this Section 14.04(a) is declared but not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall be immediately readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors determines not to pay such dividend or distribution, to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared. (b) If the Company distributes to all or substantially all holders of the Common Stock any rights, options or warrants (other than pursuant to a stockholder rights plan) entitling them, for a period of not more than 60 calendar days after the announcement date of such distribution, to subscribe for or purchase shares of the Common Stock at a price per share that is less than the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock for the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of announcement of such distribution, the Conversion Rate shall be increased based on the following formula: where, CR0 = the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution; CR’ = the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the open of business on such Ex-Dividend Date; OS0 = the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the open of business on such Ex-Dividend Date;

• Conversion Price Adjustments The conversion price shall be subject to adjustment (without duplication) from time to time as follows: (a) In case the Company shall, while any of the Debentures are outstanding, (i) pay a dividend or make a distribution with respect to its Company Common Stock exclusively in shares of Company Common Stock, (ii) subdivide its outstanding shares of Company Common Stock, (iii) combine its outstanding shares of Company Common Stock into a smaller number of shares or (iv) issue by reclassification of its shares of Company Common Stock any shares of capital stock of the Company, the conversion privilege and the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such action shall be adjusted so that the Holder of any Debentures thereafter surrendered for conversion shall be entitled to receive the number of shares of capital stock of the Company which he would have owned immediately following such action had such Debentures been converted immediately prior thereto. An adjustment made pursuant to this subsection (a) shall become effective immediately after the record date in the case of a dividend or other distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in case of a subdivision, combination or reclassification (or immediately after the record date if a record date shall have been established for such event). If, as a result of an adjustment made pursuant to this subsection (a), the Holder of any Debenture thereafter surrendered for conversion shall become entitled to receive shares of two or more classes or series of capital stock of the Company, the Board of Directors (whose determination shall be conclusive and shall be described in a Board Resolution filed with the Trustee) shall determine the allocation of the adjusted Conversion Price between or among shares of such classes or series of capital stock. In the event that such dividend, distribution, subdivision, combination or issuance 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 record date had not been fixed. (b) In case the Company shall, while any of the Debentures are Outstanding, issue rights or warrants to all holders of its Company Common Stock entitling them to subscribe for or purchase shares of Company Common Stock at a price per share less than the Current Market Price per share of Company Common Stock on such record date, the Conversion Price for the Debentures shall be adjusted so that the same shall equal the price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the date of issuance of such rights or warrants by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Company Common Stock outstanding on the date of issuance of such rights or warrants plus the number of shares which the aggregate offering price of the total number of shares so offered for subscription or purchase would purchase at such Current Market Price, and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of Company Common Stock outstanding on the date of issuance of such rights or warrants plus the number of additional shares of Company Common Stock offered for subscription or purchase. Such adjustment shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants. For the purposes of this subsection, the number of shares of Company Common Stock at any time outstanding shall not include shares held in the treasury of the Company. The Company shall not issue any rights or warrants in respect of shares of Company Common Stock held in the treasury of the Company. In case any rights or warrants referred to in this subsection in respect of which an adjustment shall have been made shall expire unexercised after the same shall have been distributed or issued by the Company, the Conversion Price shall be readjusted at the time of such expiration to the Conversion Price that would have been in effect if no adjustment had been made on account of the distribution or issuance of such expired rights or warrants. (c) Subject to the last sentence of this subparagraph, in case the Company shall, by dividend or otherwise, distribute to all holders of its Company Common Stock evidences of its indebtedness, shares of any class or series of capital stock, cash or assets (including securities, but excluding any rights or warrants referred to in subparagraph (b), any dividend or distribution paid exclusively in cash and any dividend or distribution referred to in subparagraph (a) of this Section 13.4), the Conversion Price shall be reduced so that the same shall equal the price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the effectiveness of the Conversion Price reduction contemplated by this subparagraph (c) by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the Current Market Price per share of Company Common Stock on the date fixed for the payment of such distribution (the "Reference 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 resolution of the Board of Directors), on the Reference Date, of the portion of the evidences of indebtedness, shares of capital stock, cash and assets so distributed applicable to one share of Company Common Stock and the denominator shall be such Current Market Price per share of Company Common Stock, such reduction to become effective immediately prior to the opening of business on the day following the Reference 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 occurred. For purposes of this subparagraph (c), any dividend or distribution that includes shares of Company Common Stock or rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase shares of Company Common Stock shall be deemed instead to be (i) a dividend or distribution of the evidences of indebtedness, shares of capital stock, cash or assets other than such shares of Company Common Stock or such rights or warrants (making any Conversion Price reduction required by this subparagraph (c)) immediately followed by (ii) a dividend or distribution of such shares of Company Common Stock or such rights or warrants (making any further conversion price reduction required by subparagraph (a) or (b)), except (A) the Reference Date of such dividend or distribution as defined in this subparagraph shall be substituted as (x) "the record date in the case of a dividend or other distribution," and (y) "the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants" and (z) "the date fixed for such determination" within the meaning of subparagraphs (a) and (b) and (B) any shares of Company Common Stock included in such dividend or distribution shall not be deemed outstanding for purposes of computing any adjustment of the conversion price in subparagraph (a). (d) In case the Company shall pay or make a dividend or other distribution on its Company Common Stock exclusively in cash (excluding (i) all cash dividends, if the amount thereof does not exceed the per share amount of the immediately preceding regular cash dividend (as adjusted to reflect any of the events referred to in subparagraphs (a), (b), (c), (d) or (e) of this Section and (ii) all cash dividends, if the annualized amount thereof per share of Company Common Stock does not exceed 12.5% of the Current Market Price per share of Company Common Stock on the trading day immediately preceding the date of declaration of such dividend), the Conversion Price shall be reduced so that the same shall equal the price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the effectiveness of the Conversion Price reduction contemplated by this subparagraph (d) by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the Current Market Price per share of Company Common Stock on the date fixed for the payment of such distribution less the amount of cash so distributed (excluding that portion of such distribution that does not exceed 12.5% of the Current Market Price per share, determined as provided above) applicable to one share of Company Common Stock and the denominator shall be such Current Market Price per share of Company Common Stock, such reduction to become effective immediately prior to the opening of business on the day following the date fixed for the payment of such distribution; provided, however, that in the event the portion of the cash so distributed applicable to one share of Company Common Stock is equal to or greater than the Current Market Price per share of Company Common Stock on the record date mentioned above (excluding that portion of such distribution that does not exceed 12.5% of the Current Market Price per share, determined as provided above), in lieu of the foregoing adjustment, adequate provision shall be made so that each Holder of shares of Debentures shall have the right to receive upon conversion the amount of cash such Holder would have received had such Holder converted each share of the Debentures immediately prior to the record date for the distribution of the cash (less that portion of such distribution that does not exceed 12.5% of the Current Market Price per share, determined as provided above). 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 record date had not been fixed. (e) In case a tender or exchange offer (other than an odd-lot offer) made by the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company for all or any portion of Company Common Stock shall expire and such tender or exchange offer shall involve the payment by the Company or such Subsidiary of consideration per share of Company Common Stock having a fair market value (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive and described in a resolution of the Board of Directors) 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 110% of the Current Market Price per share of Company Common Stock on the trading day next succeeding the Expiration Time, the Conversion Price shall be reduced so that the same shall equal the price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the effectiveness of the Conversion Price reduction contemplated by this subparagraph (e) by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Company Common Stock outstanding (including any tendered or exchanged shares) at the Expiration Time (including the Purchased Shares) (as defined below) multiplied by the Current Market Price per share of Company Common Stock on the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Time and the denominator shall be the sum of (x) 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") (excluding that portion of such consideration that does not exceed 110% of the Current Market Price per share) and (y) the product of the number of shares of Company Common Stock outstanding (less any Purchased Shares) at the Expiration Time and the Current Market Price per share of Company 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 such tender or exchange offer is not so made, the Conversion Price shall again be adjusted to be the Conversion Price which would then be in effect if such record date had not been fixed. (f) If the distribution date for the Rights of the Company provided in any stockholder rights agreement occurs prior to the Conversion Date, and a Holder of the Debentures who converts such Debentures after such distribution date is not entitled to receive the Rights that would otherwise be attached (but for the date of conversion) to the shares of Company Common Stock received upon such conversion, then an adjustment shall be made to the Conversion Price pursuant to clause (ii) of Section 13.4(a) as if the Rights were being distributed to Company Common Stockholders of the Company immediately prior to such conversion. If such an adjustment is made and the Rights are later redeemed, invalidated or terminated, then a corresponding reversing adjustment shall be made to the Conversion Price, on an equitable basis, to take account of such event. (g) The Company shall have the right to reduce from time to time the Conversion Price by any amount selected by the Company for any period of at least 30 days; provided, that Company shall give at least 15 days' written notice of such reduction to the Trustee and the Property Trustee. The Company may, at its option, make such reductions in the Conversion Price, in addition to those set forth above in Section 13.4(a), as the Board of Directors deems advisable to avoid or diminish any income tax to holders of Company Common Stock resulting from any dividend or distribution of stock (or rights to acquire stock) or from any event treated as such for United States Federal income tax purposes. (h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 13.4, no adjustment of the Conversion Price will be made upon the issuance of any shares of Company Common Stock (or securities convertible or exchangeable for Company Common Stock), except as specifically provided above, including pursuant to any present or future plan providing for the reinvestment of dividends or interest payable on securities of the Company and the investment of additional optional amounts in shares of Company Common Stock under any such plan, or the issuance of any shares of Company Common Stock or options or rights to purchase such shares pursuant to any present or future employee benefit plan or program of the Company or pursuant to any option, warrant, right, or exercisable, exchangeable or convertible security which does not constitute an issuance to all holders of Company Common Stock of rights or warrants entitling holders of such rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase Company Common Stock at less than the Current Market Price. Further, such issuances shall not be deemed to constitute an issuance of Company Common Stock or exercisable, exchangeable or convertible securities by the Company to which any of the adjustment provisions described above applies. There shall also be no adjustment of the Conversion Price in case of the issuance of any stock (or securities convertible into or exchangeable for stock) of the Company except as specifically described in this Article 13. No adjustment in the Conversion Price will be required unless such adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least 1% of the Conversion Price, but any adjustment that would otherwise be required to be made shall be carried forward and taken into account in a subsequent adjustment. (i) If any action would require adjustment of the Conversion Price pursuant to more than one of the provisions described above, only one adjustment shall be made and such adjustment shall be the amount of adjustment that has the highest absolute value to the Holder of the Debentures.

• Adjustments to the Purchase Price (a) To determine the Adjusted Purchase Price in accordance in accordance with Section 3.5, the Preliminary Purchase Price shall be reduced or increased (subject to the limitations provided below), as applicable, by the aggregate amount, if any, by which the Adjusted Net Working Capital (as defined below) of the Companies as of the close of business on the Closing Date and immediately prior to the Dissolution is less than or greater than $3,183,257. For purposes of this Agreement, the term "Adjusted Net Working Capital" means (i) the sum of ---------------------------- (A) cash, (B) accounts receivable, net of allowance for doubtful accounts, (C) prepaid expenses, and (D) other current assets, less (ii) the sum of (A) accounts payable, (B) accrued expenses, and (C) income tax payable, each component of which will be calculated using the same methodology as was used in preparing the combined consolidating balance sheets of the Companies as of March 31, 1998 in the offering memorandum provided to Seller in connection with the Stock Purchase Agreement, with certain agreed upon adjustments. For the purposes of this calculation, amounts relating to gains on the sale or other disposition of assets after December 31, 1998 (whether reflected on the balance sheets of the Companies as an increase in cash or other assets, or a decrease in liabilities, or otherwise) shall be excluded and an amount equal thereto shall be deducted in calculating Adjusted Net Working Capital. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer shall be credited, as a reduction in the Adjusted Purchase Price, with the positive amount, if any, equal to (i) (A) the amount of Adjusted Net Working Capital on the Closing Date, (B) plus an amount equal to any employee bonuses paid by the Companies after March 31, 1999, (C) plus an amount equal to any payments or charges after March 31, 1999 for attorneys' fees and expenses, accountants' fees and expenses and investment bankers' fees and expenses, including without limitation relating to the Stock Purchase Agreement, this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby and the settlement of the matter described in Schedule 4.14, item 7, and, without ------------- limitation, any other payments, expenses or charges not in the ordinary course of business or extraordinary in nature after Xxxxx 00, 0000, (X) plus an amount equal to the principal portion of any payments of Indebtedness after March 31, 1999, and (E) minus an amount equal to any increase in Adjusted Net Working Capital resulting from the payment after March 31, 1999 of the receivable from Safety Shorts, Inc. previously thought to be uncollectible, minus (ii) the amount of Adjusted Net Working Capital on March 31, 1999. The purpose of the foregoing sentence is to place the parties in the same economic position as if the Closing had occurred on March 31, 1999.

• Adjustment of Conversion Price (1) The Conversion Price in effect at any date will be subject to adjustment from time to time in the events and in the manner provided in this Article 5. (2) If and whenever at any time after the date hereof and prior to the Maturity Date, the Corporation: (a) issues Common Shares or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Shares to the holders of all or substantially all of the outstanding Common Shares as a stock dividend or otherwise; (b) makes a distribution on its outstanding Common Shares to the holders of all or substantially all of the outstanding Common Shares payable in Common Shares or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Shares (other than an issue of Common Shares to holders of Common Shares pursuant to a right granted to such holders to receive such Common Shares in lieu of Dividends Paid in the Ordinary Course); (c) subdivides its outstanding Common Shares into a greater number of Common Shares; or (d) reduces, combines or consolidates its outstanding Common Shares into a smaller number of Common Shares, (any of such events in subsections (a), (b), (c) and (d) being called a “Common Share Reorganization”), then the Conversion Price then in effect will be adjusted effective immediately on the effective date or record date for the happening of a Common Share Reorganization, as the case may be, at which the holders of Common Shares are determined for the purpose of the Common Share Reorganization, so that it will equal the price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such effective date or record date by a fraction, the numerator of which will be the total number of Common Shares outstanding on such effective date or record date before giving effect to such Common Share Reorganization and the denominator of which will be the total number of Common Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to such Common Share Reorganization (including, in the case where securities exchangeable for or convertible into Common Shares are distributed, the number of Common Shares that would have been outstanding had all such securities been exchanged for or converted into Common Shares on such effective date or record date). (3) If and whenever at any time after the date hereof and prior to the Maturity Date, the Corporation fixes a record date for the issue of rights, options or warrants to the holders of all or substantially all of the outstanding Common Shares under which such holders are entitled, during a period expiring not more than 45 days after the record date for such issue (the “Rights Period”), to subscribe for or purchase Common Shares or securities exchangeable for or convertible into Common Shares at a price per share to the holder (or at an exchange price or conversion price per share during the Rights Period to the holder in the case of securities exchangeable for or convertible into Common Shares) which is less than 95% of the Current Market Price for the Common Shares on such record date (any of such events being called a “Rights Offering”), then the Conversion Price will be adjusted effective immediately after the end of the Rights Period so that it will equal the price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the end of the Rights Period by a fraction: (a) the numerator of which will be the aggregate of: (i) the total number of Common Shares outstanding as of the record date for the commencement of the Rights Offering, and (ii) a number determined by dividing (I) either (x) the product of the number of Common Shares issued or subscribed for during the Rights Period upon the exercise of the rights, warrants or options under the Rights Offering and the price at which such Common Shares are offered for such issue or subscription, or, as the case may be, (y) the product of the exchange price or conversion price of such securities exchangeable for or convertible into Common Shares and the number of Common Shares for or into which the securities so offered pursuant to the Rights Offering could have been exchanged or converted during the Rights Period, by (II) the Current Market Price of the Common Shares as of the record date for the commencement of the Rights Offering, and (b) the denominator of which will be the number of Common Shares outstanding, or the number of Common Shares which would be outstanding if all the exchangeable or convertible securities were exchanged for or converted into Common Shares during the Rights Period, after giving effect to the Rights Offering and including the number of Common Shares actually issued or subscribed for during the Rights Period upon exercise of the rights, warrants or options under the Rights Offering. Any Debentureholder who has exercised the right to convert to Common Shares in accordance with Article 4 during the period beginning immediately after the record date for a Rights Offering and ending on the last day of the Rights Period for the Rights Offering will, in addition to the Common Shares to which that holder would otherwise be entitled upon such conversion, be entitled to that number of additional Common Shares equal to the result obtained when the difference, if any, between the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the end of such Rights Offering and the Conversion Price as adjusted for such Rights Offering pursuant to this Section 5.01(3) is multiplied by the number of Common Shares received upon the conversion of the Debentures held by such Holder during such period, and the resulting product is divided by the Conversion Price as adjusted for such Rights Offering pursuant to this Section 5.01(3); provided that the provisions of Section 4.03 will be applicable to any fractional interest in a Common Share to which such Holder might otherwise be entitled under the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.01(3). Such additional Common Shares will be deemed to have been issued to the Debentureholder immediately following the end of the Rights Period and a certificate for such additional Common Shares will be delivered to such Holder within 15 Business Days following the end of the Rights Period. To the extent that any such rights, options or warrants are not so exercised on or before the expiry thereof, the Conversion Price will be readjusted to the Conversion Price which would then be in effect based on the number of Common Shares (or the securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Shares) actually delivered on the exercise of such rights, options or warrants. (4) If and whenever at any time after the date hereof and prior to the Maturity Date, the Corporation fixes a record date for the issue or the distribution to the holders of all or substantially all of the outstanding Common Shares of (i) securities of the Corporation, including rights, options or warrants to acquire securities of the Corporation or any of its property or assets and including cash and evidences of indebtedness; or (ii) any property or other assets, including cash and evidences of indebtedness, and if such issuance or distribution does not constitute a Dividend Paid in the Ordinary Course, a Common Share Reorganization, a Rights Offering or a distribution contemplated by Section 5.01(3) (any of such non-excluded events being called a “Special Distribution”), then the Conversion Price will be adjusted effective immediately after such record date so that it will equal the price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect on such record date by a fraction: (a) the numerator of which will be: (i) the product of the number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date and the Current Market Price of the Common Shares on such record date; less (ii) the fair market value, as determined by action by the Board of Directors (whose determination, subject to the consent of a Recognized Stock Exchange, will be conclusive), to the holders of Common Shares of such securities or property or other assets so issued or distributed in the Special Distribution; and (b) the denominator of which will be the product of the number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date and the Current Market Price of the Common Shares on such record date. To the extent that any Special Distribution is not so made, the Conversion Price will be readjusted effective immediately to the Conversion Price which would then be in effect based upon such securities or property or other assets as actually distributed. (5) If and whenever at any time after the date hereof and prior to the Maturity Date, there is a reclassification of the Common Shares at any time outstanding or change of the Common Shares into other shares or into other securities or other capital reorganization (other than a Common Share Reorganization), or a consolidation, amalgamation or merger of the Corporation with or into any other corporation or other entity (other than a vertical short-form amalgamation with one or more of its Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries pursuant to the Canada Business Corporations Act), or a transfer of the undertaking or assets of the Corporation as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to another corporation or other entity in which the holders of Common Shares are entitled to receive shares, other securities or other property (any of such events being called a “Capital Reorganization”), any Holder of Debentures who exercises the right to convert Debentures into Common Shares pursuant to Debentures then held after the effective date of such Capital Reorganization will be entitled to receive, and will accept for the same aggregate consideration in lieu of the number of Common Shares to which such Holder was previously entitled upon such conversion, the aggregate number of shares, other securities or other property that such holder would have been entitled to receive as a result of such Capital Reorganization if, on the effective date thereof, the holder had been the registered holder of the number of Common Shares to which such holder was previously entitled upon conversion subject, however, to any requirements necessary to ensure that the interest payable on the Debentures will be and will remain exempt from Canadian withholding tax including the requirement in effect on the date hereof for so long as such requirement is in effect that a Holder of Debentures will not be entitled to receive shares, other securities or property other than securities that are “prescribed securities” as defined in Regulation 6208 to the Income Tax Act (Canada) on or prior to five years after the date of issue of the Debentures. Subject to the preceding sentence, the Corporation will take all steps necessary to ensure that, on a Capital Reorganization, the Holders of Debentures will receive the aggregate number of shares, other securities or other property to which they are entitled as a result of the Capital Reorganization. Appropriate adjustments will be made as a result of any such Capital Reorganization in the application of the provisions set forth in this Article 5 with respect to the rights and interests thereafter of Holders of Debentures to the end that the provisions set forth in this Article 5 will thereafter correspondingly be made applicable as nearly as may reasonably be in relation to any shares, other securities or other property thereafter deliverable upon the conversion of any Debenture. Prior to or concurrent with effecting a Capital Reorganization, the Corporation will enter into an indenture supplemental hereto approved by action of the Board of Directors and by the Trustee, relying on advice of counsel, that will set forth an appropriate adjustment to give effect to this Section 5.01(5), in which event such adjustment will for all purposes be conclusively deemed to be an appropriate adjustment, subject to any required prior consent of a Recognized Stock Exchange. (6) If the purchase price provided for in any rights, options or warrants (the “Rights Offering Price”) referred to in Sections 5.01(3) or (4) is decreased, the Conversion Price will forthwith be changed so as to decrease the Conversion Price to the Conversion Price that would have been obtained if the adjustment to the Conversion Price made under Section 5.01(3) or (4), as the case may be, with respect to such rights, options or warrants had been made on the basis of the Rights Offering Price as so decreased, provided that the terms of this Section 5.01(6) will not apply to any decrease in the Rights Offering Price resulting from terms in any such rights, options or warrants designed to prevent dilution except to the extent that the resulting decrease in the Conversion Price under this Section 5.01(6) would be greater than the decrease, if any, in the Conversion Price to be made under the terms of this Section 5.01(6) by virtue of the occurrence of the event giving rise to such decrease in the Rights Offering Price. (7) In any case in which this Section 5.01 requires that an adjustment will become effective immediately after a record date for an event referred to herein, the Corporation may defer, until the occurrence of such event, issuing to the Holder of any Debenture converted after such record date and before the occurrence of such event the additional Common Shares issuable upon such conversion by reason of the adjustment required by such event, provided, however, that the Corporation will deliver to such Holder evidence of such Holder’s right to receive such additional Common Shares upon the occurrence of such event and the right to receive any distributions made on such additional Common Shares declared in favour of holders of record of Common Shares on and after the date of conversion or such later date on which such Holder would, but for the provisions of this Section 5.01(7), have become the holder of record of such additional Common Shares.
