Adjustments to Conversion Rate. The Conversion Rate shall be subject to adjustments from time to time as follows: (1) In case at any time after the Closing Date the Company shall pay or make a dividend or other distribution on any class of Capital Stock of the Company (other than the Series C Preferred Stock) in shares of its Common Stock, the Conversion Rate in effect at the opening of business on the day following the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or other distribution shall be increased by dividing such Conversion Rate by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at the close of business on the date fixed for such determination and the denominator shall be the sum of such number of shares and the total number of shares constituting such dividend or other distribution, such increase to become effective immediately after the opening of business on the day following the date fixed for such determination. For the purposes of this paragraph (1), the number of shares of Common Stock at any time outstanding shall not include shares held in the treasury of the Company but shall include shares issuable in respect of scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of shares of Common Stock. The Company will not pay any dividend or make any distribution on shares of Common Stock held in the treasury of the Company. (2) In case at any time after the Closing Date, the Company shall issue rights or warrants to all holders of its Common Stock (not being available on an equivalent basis to holders of the Debentures upon conversion) entitling them to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at a price per share less than the current market price per share (determined as provided in paragraph (8) of this Section 15.4) of the Common Stock on the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants, the Conversion Rate in effect at the opening of business on the day following the date fixed for such determination shall be increased by dividing such Conversion Rate by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at the close of business on the date fixed for such determination plus the number of shares of Common Stock which the aggregate of the offering price of the total number of shares of Common Stock so offered for subscription or purchase would purchase at such current market price and the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at the close of business on the date fixed for such determination plus the number of shares of Common Stock so offered for subscription or purchase, such increase to become effective immediately after the opening of business on the day following the date fixed for such determination. However, upon the expiration of any right or warrant to purchase Common Stock the issuance of which resulted in an adjustment in the Conversion Rate pursuant to this subsection (2), if any such right or warrant shall expire and shall not have been exercised, the Conversion Rate shall immediately upon such expiration be recomputed and effective immediately upon such expiration be increased to the price which it would have been (but reflecting any other adjustments in the Conversion Rate made pursuant to the provisions of this Section 15.4 after the issuance of such rights or warrants) had the adjustment of the Conversion Rate made upon the issuance of such rights or warrants been made on the basis of offering for subscription or purchase only that number of shares of Common Stock actually purchased upon the exercise of such rights or warrants actually exercised. For the purposes of this paragraph (2), the number of shares of Common Stock at any time outstanding shall not include shares held in the treasury of the Company but will include shares issuable in respect of scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of shares of Common Stock. The Company will not issue any rights or warrants in respect of shares of Common Stock held in the treasury of the Company. (3) In case at any time after the Closing Date, outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be subdivided into a greater number of shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Rate in effect at the opening of business on the day following the day upon which such subdivision becomes effective shall be proportionately increased and, conversely, in case at any time after the date hereof, outstanding shares of Common Stock shall each be combined into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Rate in effect at the opening of business on the day following the day upon which such combination becomes effective shall be proportionately reduced, such increase or reduction, 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. (4) In case at any time after the Closing Date, the Company shall, by dividend or otherwise, distribute to all holders of its Common Stock evidences of its indebtedness or assets (including stock or other securities of the Company or any other issuer, but excluding any rights or warrants referred to in paragraph (2) of this Section 15.4, any dividend or distribution paid exclusively in cash and any dividend or distribution referred to in paragraph (1) of this Section 15.4), the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted so that the same shall equal the rate determined by dividing the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the current market price per share (determined as provided in paragraph (8) of this Section 15.4) of the Common Stock on the date fixed for such determination less the then fair market value (each reference to "fair market value" in this Section 15.4 shall mean the fair market value as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company in good faith, whose determination shall be described in a Board Resolution, a copy of which shall be delivered to each holder of Debentures within ten (10) days of the adoption of the resolution) of the portion of the assets or evidences of indebtedness so distributed applicable to one (1) share of Common Stock and the denominator shall be such current market price per share of the Common Stock, such adjustment to become effective immediately prior to the opening of business on the day following the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution. (5) In case at any time after the Closing Date (A) 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 15.13 applies or as part of a distribution referred to in paragraph (4) of this Section 15.4) and (B)(I) the total of (x) the aggregate amount of such cash distribution, (y) the aggregate amount of any other distributions to all holders of its Common Stock made exclusively in cash within the twelve (12) months preceding the date of payment of such distribution and in respect of which no adjustment pursuant to this paragraph (5) or paragraph (6) of this Section 15.4 has been made and (z) the aggregate of any cash plus the fair market value of other consideration payable in respect of any tender offers by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for all or any portion of the Common Stock concluded within the twelve (12) months preceding the date of payment of such distribution and in respect of which no adjustment pursuant to this paragraph (5) or paragraph (6) of this Section 15.4 has been made, exceeds (II) ten percent (10%) of the product of the current market price per share (determined as provided in paragraph (8) of this Section 15.4) of the Common Stock on the date for the determination of holders of shares of Common Stock entitled to receive such distribution times the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such date, then, and in each such case, immediately after the close of business on such date for determination, the Conversion Rate shall be increased so that the same shall equal the rate determined by dividing the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the date fixed for determination of the stockholders entitled to receive such distribution by a fraction (i) the numerator of which shall be equal to such current market price per share on the date fixed for such determination less an amount equal to the quotient of (X) the sum of (I) the total of the amounts referred to in subclauses (B)(I)(x) and (y) of this paragraph (5) and (II) the aggregate of the excess of the amount referred to in subclause (B)(I)(z) of this paragraph (5) for each tender offer so referred to over the aggregate current market price of the shares of Common Stock purchased in such tender offer as of the Expiration Time (as hereinafter defined) for such tender offer divided by (Y) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such date for determination and (ii) the denominator of which shall be equal to such current market price per share on such date for determination. (6) In case at any time after the Closing Date (A) a tender offer made by the Company or any Subsidiary for all or any portion of the Common Stock shall expire and (B)(I) the total of (x) the fair market value of the aggregate consideration required to be paid pursuant to such tender offer (as amended upon the expiration thereof) to stockholders (based on the acceptance (up to any maximum specified in the terms of the tender offer) of Purchased Shares (as defined below)), (y) the aggregate of the cash plus the fair market value, as of the expiration of such tender offer, of consideration payable in respect of any other tender offer, by the Company or any Subsidiary for all or any portion of the Common Stock expiring within the twelve (12) months preceding the expiration of such tender offer and in respect of which no adjustment pursuant to this paragraph (6) or paragraph (5) of this Section 15.4 has been made and (z) the aggregate amount of any distributions to all holders of the Company's Common Stock made exclusively in cash within twelve (12) months preceding the expiration of such tender offer and in respect of which no adjustment pursuant to this paragraph (6) or paragraph (5) of this Section 15.4 has been made, exceeds (II) ten percent (10%) of the product of the current market price per share of the Common Stock (determined as provided in paragraph (8) of this Section 15.4) on the date of the last time (the "Expiration Time") tenders could have been made pursuant to such tender offer (as it may be amended) times the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (including any tendered shares) on the Expiration Time, then, and in each such case, immediately prior to the opening of business on the day after the date of the Expiration Time, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted so that the same shall equal the price determined by dividing the Conversion Rate immediately prior to the close of business on the date of the Expiration Time by a fraction (i) the numerator of which shall be equal to (a) the product of (I) such current market price per share on the date of the Expiration Time and (II) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (including any tendered shares) as of the Expiration Time less (b) the total of the amounts referred to in Clause (B)(I) of this paragraph (6), and (ii) the denominator of which shall be equal to the product of (a) such current market price per share on the date of the Expiration Time and (b) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (including any tendered shares) as of the Expiration Time less the number 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"). (7) The reclassification of Common Stock into securities other than Common Stock (other than any reclassification upon a consolidation or merger to which Section 15.13 applies) shall be deemed to involve (a) a distribution of such securities other than Common Stock to all holders of Common Stock (and the effective date of such reclassification shall be deemed to be "the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution" and "the date fixed for such determination" within the meaning of paragraph (4) of this Section 15.4), and (b) a subdivision or combination, as the case may be, of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such reclassification into the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately thereafter (and the effective date of such reclassification shall be deemed to be "the day upon which such subdivision becomes effective" or "the day upon which such combination becomes effective", as the case may be, and "the day upon which such subdivision or combination becomes effective" within the meaning of paragraph (3) of this Section 15.4). (8) For the purpose of any computation under paragraph (2), (4), (5) or (6) of this Section 15.4, the current market price per share of Common Stock on any date shall be calculated by the Company and be deemed to be the average of the daily Closing Price per share of Common Stock for the five (5) consecutive Trading Days before, and ending not later than, the earlier of (i) the day in question and (ii) the day before the "ex" date with respect to the issuance or distribution requiring such computation. For purposes of this paragraph, the term "'ex' date", when used with respect to any issuance or distribution, means the first date on which the Common Stock trades regular way on the applicable securities exchange or in the applicable securities market without the right to receive such issuance or distribution. (9) The Company may make such increases in the Conversion Rate, for the remaining term of the Debentures or any shorter term, in addition to those required by paragraphs (1), (2), (3), (4), (5) and (6) of this Section 15.4, as it considers to be advisable in order to avoid or diminish any income tax to any holders of shares of Common Stock resulting from any dividend or distribution of stock or issuance of rights or warrants to purchase or subscribe for stock or from any event treated as such for income tax purposes or for any other reasons.

Adjustments to Conversion Rate. The Conversion Rate shall be ~~subject to adjustments~~ adjusted from time to ~~time~~ time, without duplication, as follows: (1a) In case ~~at any time after~~ the ~~Closing Date the Company shall~~ Issuer shall: (i) pay a dividend, or make a ~~dividend or other distribution on any class of Capital Stock of the Company (other than the Series C Preferred Stock)~~ distribution, exclusively in shares of its capital stock, on the Common Stock; (ii) subdivide its outstanding Common Stock into a greater number of shares; (iii) combine its outstanding Common Stock into a smaller number of shares; or (iv) reclassify its Common Stock, the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the record date or effective date, as the case may be, for the adjustment pursuant to this Section 6.06(a) as described below, shall be adjusted so that the Holder of any 2023 Notes thereafter surrendered for conversion shall be entitled to receive the number of shares of Common Stock of the Issuer which such Holder would have owned or have been entitled to receive after the happening of any of the events described above had such 2023 Notes been converted immediately prior to such record date or effective date, as the case may be. An adjustment made pursuant to this Section 6.06(a) shall become effective immediately after the applicable record date in the case of a dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the applicable effective date in the case of subdivision, combination or reclassification of the Issuer's Common Stock. If any dividend or distribution of the type described in clause (i) above is not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall again be adjusted to the Conversion Rate which would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared. (b) In case the Issuer shall issue rights or warrants to all holders of the Common Stock entitling them (for a period expiring within 60 days after the date of issuance of such rights or warrants) to subscribe for or purchase Common Stock at a price per share less than the ~~opening~~ Market Price per share of ~~business~~ Common Stock on the ~~day following the~~ record date fixed for ~~the~~ determination of ~~stockholders~~ shareholders entitled to receive such ~~dividend~~ rights or ~~other distribution~~ warrants, the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after such record date shall be ~~increased by dividing such~~ adjusted so that the same shall equal the Conversion Rate determined by multiplying the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after such record date by a fraction of which (i) the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at on such record date plus the ~~close~~ number of ~~business on the date fixed~~ additional shares of Common Stock offered for ~~such determination~~ subscription or purchase, and (ii) the denominator shall be the ~~sum of such~~ number of shares ~~and~~ of Common Stock outstanding on such record date plus the number of shares which the aggregate offering price of the total number of shares ~~constituting~~ so offered would purchase at the Market Price per share of Common Stock on the earlier of such ~~dividend~~ record date or ~~other distribution~~the Trading Day immediately preceding the ex date for such issuance of rights or warrants. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever any such rights or warrants are issued, ~~such increase to~~ and shall become effective immediately after the opening of business on the day following the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants. To the extent that shares of Common Stock are not delivered after the expiration of such rights or warrants, the Conversion Rate shall be readjusted to the Conversion Rate which would then be in effect had the adjustments made upon the issuance of such rights or warrants been made on the basis of delivery of only the number of shares of Common Stock actually delivered. If such rights or warrants are not so issued, the Conversion Rate shall again be adjusted to be the Conversion Rate which would then be in effect if such record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants had not been fixed. In determining whether any rights or warrants entitle the holders to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at less than such Market Price, and in determining the aggregate offering price of such shares of Common Stock, there shall be taken into account any consideration received by the Issuer for such rights or warrants, the value of such consideration, if other than cash, to be determined by the Board of Directors. (c) In case the Issuer shall, by dividend or otherwise, distribute to all holders of Common Stock any assets, debt securities or rights or warrants to purchase any of its securities (excluding (i) any dividend, distribution or issuance covered by those referred to in Section 6.06(a) or Section 6.06(b) hereof and (ii) any dividend or distribution paid exclusively in cash) (any of the foregoing hereinafter in this Section 6.06(c) called the "Distributed Assets or Securities") in an aggregate amount per share of Common Stock that, combined together with the aggregate amount of any other such distributions to all holders of its Common Stock made within the 12 months preceding the date of payment of such distribution, and in respect of which no adjustment pursuant to this Section 6.06(c) has been made, exceeds 15% of the Market Price on the Trading Day immediately preceding the declaration of such distribution, then the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted so that the same shall equal the Conversion Rate determined by multiplying the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the record date mentioned below by a fraction of which (A) the numerator shall be the Market Price per share of the Common Stock on the earlier of such record date or the Trading Day immediately preceding the ex date for such dividend or distribution, and (B) the denominator shall be (1) the Market Price per share of the Common Stock on the earlier of such record date or the Trading Day immediately preceding the ex date for such dividend or distribution less (2) the Fair Market Value on the earlier of such record date or the Trading Day immediately preceding the ex date for such dividend or distribution (as determined by the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive, and described in a certificate filed with the Trustee and the Paying Agent) of the Distributed Assets or Securities so distributed applicable to one share of Common Stock. Such adjustment shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such distribution; provided, however, that, if (i) the Fair Market Value of the portion of the Distributed Assets or Securities so distributed applicable to one share of Common Stock is equal to or greater than the Market Price of the Common Stock on the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such distribution or (ii) the Market Price of the Common Stock on the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such distribution is greater than the Fair Market Value per share of such Distributed Assets or Securities by less than $1.00, 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 shares of Common Stock, the kind and amount of assets, debt securities, or rights or warrants comprising the Distributed Assets or Securities the Holder would have received had such Holder converted such 2023 Notes immediately prior to the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such distribution. In the event that such distribution is not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall again be adjusted to the Conversion Rate which would then be in effect if such distribution had not been declared. (d) In case the Issuer shall make (i) any distributions, by dividend or otherwise, during any quarterly fiscal periods consisting exclusively of cash to all holders of outstanding shares of Common Stock in an aggregate amount that, together with (ii) other all-cash or all-check distributions made to all holders of outstanding shares of Common Stock during such quarterly fiscal period, and (iii) any cash and the Fair Market Value, as of the expiration of any tender or exchange offer (other than consideration payable in respect of any odd-lot tender offer) of consideration payable in respect of any tender or exchange offer by the Issuer or any of the Issuer's Subsidiaries for all or any portion of shares of Common Stock concluded during such quarterly fiscal period, exceed the product of $0 multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on the record date for such distribution, then, and in each such case, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted so that the same shall equal the Conversion Rate determined by multiplying the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the record date fixed for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive such ~~determination~~distribution by a fraction of which (A) the numerator shall be the Market Price per share of the Common Stock on the earlier of such record date or the Trading Day immediately preceding the ex date for such dividend or distribution and (B) the denominator shall be (1) the Market Price per share of Common Stock on the earlier of such record date or the Trading Day immediately preceding the ex date for such dividend or distribution plus (2) $0 less (3) an amount equal to the quotient of (x) the combined amount distributed or payable in the transactions described in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above during such quarterly fiscal period and (y) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such record date, such adjustment to become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such distribution. (e) With respect to Section 6.06(c) hereof, in the event that the Issuer makes any distribution to all holders of Common Stock consisting of Equity Interests in a Subsidiary or other business unit of the Issuer, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted so that the same shall equal the Conversion Rate determined by multiplying the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the record date fixed for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive such distribution by a fraction of which (i) the numerator shall be (x) the Spin-off Market Price per share of the Common Stock on such record date plus (y) the Spin-off Market Price per Equity Interest of the Subsidiary or other business unit of the Issuer on such record date and (ii) the denominator shall be the Spin-off Market Price per share of the Common Stock on such record date, such adjustment to become effective 10 Trading Days after the effective date of such distribution of Equity Interests in a Subsidiary or other business unit of the Issuer. (f) Upon conversion of the 2023 Notes, the Holders shall receive, in addition to the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion, the rights issued under any future shareholder rights plan the Issuer implements (notwithstanding the occurrence of an event causing such rights to separate from the Common Stock at or prior to the time of conversion) unless, prior to conversion, the rights have expired, terminated or been redeemed or exchanged in accordance with such rights plan. If, and only if, the Holders of 2023 Notes receive rights under such shareholder rights plans as described in the preceding sentence upon conversion of their 2023 Notes, then no other adjustment pursuant to this Section 6.06 shall be made in connection with such shareholder rights plans. (g) For ~~the~~ purposes of this ~~paragraph (1)~~Section 6.06, the number of shares of Common Stock at any time outstanding shall not include shares held in the treasury of the ~~Company~~ Issuer but shall include shares issuable in respect of scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of shares of Common Stock. The ~~Company will~~ Issuer shall not pay any dividend or make any distribution on shares of Common Stock held in the treasury of the ~~Company~~Issuer. (2h) ~~In case at any time after~~ Notwithstanding the ~~Closing Date~~foregoing, ~~the Company~~ in no event shall issue rights or warrants to all holders of its Common Stock (not being available on an equivalent basis to holders of the Debentures upon conversion) entitling them to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at a price per share less than the current market price per share (determined as provided in paragraph (8) of this Section 15.4) of the Common Stock on the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants, the Conversion Rate ~~in effect at~~ exceed the ~~opening~~ maximum conversion rate specified under this Section 6.06(h) (the "Maximum Conversion Rate") as a result of business on the day following the date fixed for such determination shall be increased by dividing such Conversion Rate by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at the close of business on the date fixed for such determination plus the number of shares of Common Stock which the aggregate of the offering price of the total number of shares of Common Stock so offered for subscription or purchase would purchase at such current market price and the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at the close of business on the date fixed for such determination plus the number of shares of Common Stock so offered for subscription or purchase, such increase to become effective immediately after the opening of business on the day following the date fixed for such determination. However, upon the expiration of any right or warrant to purchase Common Stock the issuance of which resulted in an adjustment ~~in the Conversion Rate~~ pursuant to ~~this subsection (2), if any such right or warrant shall expire~~ Section 6.06(c) and ~~shall not have been exercised, the~~ Section 6.06(d) hereof. The Maximum Conversion Rate shall ~~immediately upon such expiration~~ initially be ~~recomputed~~ 138.6963 and ~~effective immediately upon such expiration~~ shall be ~~increased~~ appropriately adjusted from time to ~~the price which it would have been (but reflecting~~ time for any ~~other adjustments in the Conversion Rate made pursuant to the provisions of this Section 15.4 after the issuance of such rights~~ stock dividends on or ~~warrants) had the adjustment~~ subdivisions or combinations of the Conversion Rate made upon the issuance of such rights or warrants been made on the basis of offering for subscription or purchase only that number of shares of Common Stock actually purchased upon the exercise of such rights or warrants actually exercised. For the purposes of this paragraph (2), the number of shares of Common Stock at any time outstanding shall not include shares held in the treasury of the Company but will include shares issuable in respect of scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of shares of Common Stock. The Company will not issue any rights or warrants in respect of shares of Common Stock held in the treasury of the Company. (3) In case at any time after the Closing Date, outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be subdivided into a greater number of shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Rate in effect at the opening of business on the day following the day upon which such subdivision becomes effective shall be proportionately increased and, conversely, in case at any time after the date hereof, outstanding shares of Common Stock shall each be combined into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Rate in effect at the opening of business on the day following the day upon which such combination becomes effective shall be proportionately reduced, such increase or reduction, 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. (4) In case at any time after the Closing Date, the Company shall, by dividend or otherwise, distribute to all holders of its Common Stock evidences of its indebtedness or assets (including stock or other securities of the Company or any other issuer, but excluding any rights or warrants referred to in paragraph (2) of this Section 15.4, any dividend or distribution paid exclusively in cash and any dividend or distribution referred to in paragraph (1) of this Section 15.4), the Maximum Conversion Rate shall be adjusted so that the same shall equal the rate determined by dividing the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the current market price per share (determined as provided in paragraph (8) of this Section 15.4) of the Common Stock on the date fixed for such determination less the then fair market value (each reference to "fair market value" in this Section 15.4 shall mean the fair market value as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company in good faith, whose determination shall be described in a Board Resolution, a copy of which shall be delivered to each holder of Debentures within ten (10) days of the adoption of the resolution) of the portion of the assets or evidences of indebtedness so distributed applicable to one (1) share of Common Stock and the denominator shall be such current market price per share of the Common Stock, such adjustment to become effective immediately prior to the opening of business on the day following the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution. (5) In case at any time after the Closing Date (A) 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 15.13 applies or as part of a distribution referred to in paragraph (4) of this Section 15.4) and (B)(I) the total of (x) the aggregate amount of such cash distribution, (y) the aggregate amount of any other distributions to all holders of its Common Stock made exclusively in cash within the twelve (12) months preceding the date of payment of such distribution and in respect of which no adjustment pursuant to this paragraph (5) or paragraph (6) of this Section 15.4 has been made and (z) the aggregate of any cash plus the fair market value of other consideration payable in respect of any tender offers by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for all or any portion of the Common Stock concluded within the twelve (12) months preceding the date of payment of such distribution and in respect of which no adjustment pursuant to this paragraph (5) or paragraph (6) of this Section 15.4 has been made, exceeds (II) ten percent (10%) of the product of the current market price per share (determined as provided in paragraph (8) of this Section 15.4) of the Common Stock on the date for the determination of holders of shares of Common Stock entitled to receive such distribution times the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such date, then, and in each such case, immediately after the close of business on such date for determination, the Conversion Rate shall be increased so that the same shall equal the rate determined by dividing the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the date fixed for determination of the stockholders entitled to receive such distribution by a fraction (i) the numerator of which shall be equal to such current market price per share on the date fixed for such determination less an amount equal to the quotient of (X) the sum of (I) the total of the amounts referred to in subclauses (B)(I)(x) and (y) of this paragraph (5) and (II) the aggregate of the excess of the amount referred to in subclause (B)(I)(z) of this paragraph (5) for each tender offer so referred to over the aggregate current market price of the shares of Common Stock purchased in such tender offer as of the Expiration Time (as hereinafter defined) for such tender offer divided by (Y) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such date for determination and (ii) the denominator of which shall be equal to such current market price per share on such date for determination. (6) In case at any time after the Closing Date (A) a tender offer made by the Company or any Subsidiary for all or any portion of the Common Stock shall expire and (B)(I) the total of (x) the fair market value of the aggregate consideration required to be paid pursuant to such tender offer (as amended upon the expiration thereof) to stockholders (based on the acceptance (up not apply to any maximum specified in the terms of the tender offer) of Purchased Shares (as defined below)), (y) the aggregate of the cash plus the fair market value, as of the expiration of such tender offer, of consideration payable in respect of any other tender offer, by the Company or any Subsidiary for all or any portion of the Common Stock expiring within the twelve (12) months preceding the expiration of such tender offer and in respect of which no adjustment pursuant to this paragraph (6) or paragraph (5) of this Section 15.4 has been made and (z) the aggregate amount of any distributions to all holders of the Company's Common Stock made exclusively in cash within twelve (12) months preceding the expiration of such tender offer and in respect of which no adjustment pursuant to this paragraph (6) or paragraph (5) of this Section 15.4 has been made, exceeds (II) ten percent (10%) of the product of the current market price per share of the Common Stock (determined as provided in paragraph (8) of this Section 15.4) on the date of the last time (the "Expiration Time") tenders could have been adjustments made pursuant to ~~such tender offer (as it may be amended) times the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (including~~ any ~~tendered shares) on the Expiration Time, then, and in each such case, immediately prior to the opening of business on the day after the date~~ of the Expiration Time, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted so that the same shall equal the price determined by dividing the Conversion Rate immediately prior to the close of business on the date of the Expiration Time by a fraction (i) the numerator of which shall be equal to (a) the product of (I) such current market price per share on the date of the Expiration Time and (II) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (including any tendered shares) as of the Expiration Time less (b) the total of the amounts referred to events in Clause (B)(I) of this paragraph (6), and (ii) the denominator of which shall be equal to the product of (a) such current market price per share on the date of the Expiration Time and (b) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (including any tendered shares) as of the Expiration Time less the number 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"). (7) The reclassification of Common Stock into securities other than Common Stock (other than any reclassification upon a consolidation or merger to which Section 15.13 applies) shall be deemed to involve (a) a distribution of such securities other than Common Stock to all holders of Common Stock (and the effective date of such reclassification shall be deemed to be "the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution" and "the date fixed for such determination" within the meaning of paragraph (4) of this Section 15.4), and (b) a subdivision or combination, as the case may be, of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such reclassification into the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately thereafter (and the effective date of such reclassification shall be deemed to be "the day upon which such subdivision becomes effective" or "the day upon which such combination becomes effective", as the case may be, and "the day upon which such subdivision or combination becomes effective" within the meaning of paragraph (3) of this Section 15.4). (8) For the purpose of any computation under paragraph (2), (4), (56.06(a) or (6Section 6.06(b) of this Section 15.4, the current market price per share of Common Stock on any date shall be calculated by the Company and be deemed to be the average of the daily Closing Price per share of Common Stock for the five (5) consecutive Trading Days before, and ending not later than, the earlier of (i) the day in question and (ii) the day before the "ex" date with respect to the issuance or distribution requiring such computation. For purposes of this paragraph, the term "'ex' date", when used with respect to any issuance or distribution, means the first date on which the Common Stock trades regular way on the applicable securities exchange or in the applicable securities market without the right to receive such issuance or distributionhereof. (9) The Company may make such increases in the Conversion Rate, for the remaining term of the Debentures or any shorter term, in addition to those required by paragraphs (1), (2), (3), (4), (5) and (6) of this Section 15.4, as it considers to be advisable in order to avoid or diminish any income tax to any holders of shares of Common Stock resulting from any dividend or distribution of stock or issuance of rights or warrants to purchase or subscribe for stock or from any event treated as such for income tax purposes or for any other reasons.

Adjustments to Conversion Rate. The Conversion Rate shall be subject to ~~adjustments~~ adjustment from time to ~~time~~ time, without duplication, as follows: (1a) In case ~~at any time after the Closing Date~~ the Company shall (i) pay a dividend, or make a ~~dividend~~ distribution on its Common Stock, payable exclusively in shares of Common Stock or other ~~distribution on any class of~~ Capital Stock of the ~~Company~~ Company; (~~other than~~ ii) subdivide or split its outstanding Common Stock into a greater number of shares; (iii) combine or reclassify its outstanding Common Stock into a smaller number of shares; or (iv) issue by reclassification of the ~~Series C Preferred Stock) in~~ shares of ~~its~~ Common Stock any shares of the Company’s Capital Stock, the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the record date or effective date, as the case may be, for the adjustment pursuant to this Section 9.8(a) as described below, shall be adjusted so that the Holder of any Notes thereafter surrendered for conversion shall be entitled to receive the number of shares of Common Stock and/or Capital Stock which such Holder would have owned or have been entitled to receive after the happening of any of the events described above had such Notes been converted immediately prior to such record date or effective date, as the case may be. An adjustment made pursuant to this Section 9.8(a) shall become effective immediately after the applicable record date in the case of a dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the applicable effective date in the case of subdivision, combination or reclassification of the Common Stock. If any dividend or distribution of the type described in clause (i) above is not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall again be immediately readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors determines not to pursue such action, to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared. If any subdivision or split, combination or reclassification or issuance of the type described in clauses (ii) through (iv) of this Section 9.8(a) is not so made, the Conversion Rate shall again be immediately readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors determines not to pursue such action, to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such subdivision or split, combination or reclassification or issuance had not been declared. (b) In case the Company at any time or from time to time after the ~~opening~~ issuance of ~~business~~ the Notes shall issue rights or warrants to all or substantially all holders of the Common Stock entitling them to subscribe for or purchase Common Stock at a price per share less (or having a conversion price per share less) than the then Current Market Price per share of Common Stock, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted so that the same shall equal the Conversion Rate determined by multiplying the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to 5:00 p.m. New York City time on the ~~day following the~~ record date fixed for ~~the~~ determination of stockholders entitled to receive such ~~dividend~~ rights or ~~other distribution shall be increased by dividing such Conversion Rate~~ warrants (prior to any adjustment in accordance with this Section 9.8(b)) by a fraction of which (i) the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at on such record date plus the ~~close~~ number of ~~business on the date fixed~~ additional shares of Common Stock offered for ~~such determination~~ subscription or purchase, and (ii) the denominator shall be the ~~sum of such~~ number of shares ~~and~~ of Common Stock outstanding on such record date plus the number of shares which the aggregate offering price of the total number of shares ~~constituting~~ so offered would purchase at the Current Market Price per share of Common Stock on the earlier of such ~~dividend~~ record date and the Trading Day immediately preceding the ex date for such issuance of rights or ~~other distribution~~warrants. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever any such rights or warrants are issued, ~~such increase to~~ and shall become effective immediately after the opening of business on the day following the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants. To the extent that shares of Common Stock are not delivered after the expiration of such rights or warrants, the Conversion Rate shall immediately be readjusted to the Conversion Rate which would then be in effect had the adjustments made upon the issuance of such rights or warrants been made on the basis of delivery of only the number of shares of Common Stock actually delivered. If such rights or warrants are not so issued, the Conversion Rate shall again be immediately readjusted to be the Conversion Rate which would then be in effect if such record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants had not been fixed. In determining whether any rights or warrants entitle the holders to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at less than such Current Market Price, and in determining the aggregate offering price of such shares of Common Stock, there shall be taken into account any consideration received by the Company for such rights or warrants, the value of such consideration, if other than cash, to be determined by the Board of Directors. (c) In case the Company shall, by dividend or in a merger, amalgamation or consolidation or otherwise, distribute to all or substantially all holders of Common Stock any evidences of Indebtedness, shares of Capital Stock of any class or series, other securities, cash or assets (excluding (i) any dividend, distribution or issuance covered by those referred to in Section 9.8(a) or 9.8(b) hereof, (ii) any dividend or distribution paid exclusively in cash referred to in Section 9.8(d) hereof or (iii) any dividend or distribution that constitutes a Spin-Off which is covered by Section 9.8(e) hereof), or rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any of its securities (including the distribution of rights to all holders of Common Stock pursuant to a stockholders rights plan or the detachment of such rights under the terms of such stockholder rights plan but excluding those rights or warrants referred to in Section 9.8(b)) (any of the foregoing hereinafter in this Section 9.8(c) called the “Distributed Assets”), then in each such case the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted so that the same shall equal the Conversion Rate determined by multiplying the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to 5:00 p.m. New York City time on the record date fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to receive such ~~determination~~distribution by a fraction of which (A) the numerator shall be the Current Market Price per share of the Common Stock and (B) the denominator shall be (1) the Current Market Price per share of the Common Stock less (2) the Fair Market Value on such record date (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive evidence of such Fair Market Value, and described in a certificate filed with the Trustee and the Paying Agent) of the portion of the Distributed Assets so distributed applicable to one share of Common Stock. Such adjustment shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution; provided, however, that, if (i) the Fair Market Value of the portion of the Distributed Assets so distributed applicable to one share of Common Stock is equal to or greater than the Current Market Price of the Common Stock or (ii) the Current Market Price of the Common Stock is greater than the Fair Market Value per share of such Distributed Assets by less than $1.00, then, in lieu of the adjustment provided in this Section 9.8(c), adequate provision shall be made so that each Holder shall have the right to receive upon conversion, in addition to the shares of Common Stock, the kind and amount of assets, debt securities, or rights or warrants comprising the Distributed Assets the Holder would have received had such Holder converted such Notes immediately prior to the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution. In the event that such distribution is not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall again be adjusted to the Conversion Rate which would then be in effect if such distribution had not been declared. (d) In case the Company shall make any distributions, by dividend or otherwise, consisting exclusively of cash to all or substantially all holders of outstanding shares of Common Stock, then, and in each such case, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted so that the same shall equal the Conversion Rate determined by multiplying the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to 5:00 p.m. New York City time on the record date fixed for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive such distribution by a fraction of which (A) the numerator shall be the Current Market Price per share of the Common Stock and (B) the denominator shall be (1) the Current Market Price per share of Common Stock minus (2) the amount per share of such distribution (appropriately adjusted from time to time for any stock dividends on or subdivisions or combination of Common Stock); provided, however, that if (i) the per share amount of such distribution equals or exceeds the Current Market Price of the Common Stock or (ii) the Current Market Price of the Common Stock exceeds the per share amount of such distribution by less than $1.00, in lieu of the foregoing adjustment, adequate provision shall be made so that each Holder of a Note shall have the right to receive upon conversion, such dividend or distribution such Holder would have received had such Holder converted each Note immediately prior to the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive the distribution. (e) In the event that the Company makes any distribution to all holders of Common Stock that constitutes a Spin-Off, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted so that the same shall equal the Conversion Rate determined by multiplying the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to 5:00 p.m. New York City time on the record date fixed for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive such distribution by a fraction of which (i) the numerator shall be the Spin-Off Market Price per share of the Common Stock on such record date plus the Spin-Off Market Price per Equity Interest of the Subsidiary or other business unit of the Company on such record date applicable to each share of Common Stock and (ii) the denominator shall be the Spin-Off Market Price per share of the Common Stock. The adjustment to the Conversion Rate set forth in this Section 9.8(e) will occur at the earlier of (1) the 10th Trading Day from, and including, the effective date of the Spin-Off and (2) the date of the Initial Public Offering of the securities being distributed in the Spin-Off, if that Initial Public Offering is effected simultaneously with the Spin-Off; provided, however, that, if (i) the Spin-Off Market Price per Equity Interest of the Subsidiary so distributed applicable to one share of Common Stock is equal to or greater than the Current Market Price of the Common Stock or (ii) the Current Market Price of the Common Stock is greater than the Spin-Off Market Price per Equity Interest of the Subsidiary by less than $1.00, in lieu of the foregoing adjustment, adequate provision shall be made so that each Holder of a Note shall have the right to receive upon conversion, such distribution such Holder would have received had such Holder converted such Note immediately prior to the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive the distribution. (f) In case a repurchase, tender or exchange offer for Common Stock made by the Company or any Subsidiary shall expire and such repurchase, 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 in good faith by the Company’s Board of Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive and described in a resolution of the Board of Directors) that as of the date of repurchase or 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 Closing Price of a share of Common Stock on the Trading Day next succeeding the date of repurchase or Expiration Time, as the case may be, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted so that the same shall equal the rate determined by multiplying the Conversion Rate by a fraction, (i) the numerator of which 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, or repurchased, (the shares deemed so accepted up to any such maximum, or repurchased 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 or date of repurchase, as the case may be, and the Closing Price of a share of Common Stock on the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Time or date of repurchase, as the case may be, and (ii) the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (including any repurchased or tendered or exchanged shares) at the Expiration Time or date of repurchase, as the case may be, multiplied by the Closing Price of a share of Common Stock on the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Time or date of repurchase, as the case may be, such adjustment to become effective immediately prior to the opening of business on the day following the Expiration Time or date of repurchase, as the case may be. If the Company is obligated to purchase shares pursuant to any such repurchase, 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 Rate shall again immediately be readjusted to be the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such repurchase, tender or exchange offer had not been made. (g) Upon conversion of the Notes, the Holders shall receive, if they receive shares of Common Stock, in addition to the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion, the rights issued under any shareholder rights plan the Company implements (notwithstanding the occurrence of an event causing such rights to separate from the Common Stock at or prior to the time of conversion) unless, prior to conversion, the rights have expired, terminated or been redeemed or exchanged in accordance with the rights plan. If, and only if, the Holders of Notes receive rights under such shareholder rights plans as described in the preceding sentence upon conversion of their Notes, then no other adjustment pursuant to this Section 9.8 shall be made in connection with such shareholder rights plans. (h) For ~~the~~ purposes of this ~~paragraph (1)~~Section 9.8, the number of shares of Common Stock at any time outstanding shall not include shares held in the treasury of the Company but shall include shares issuable in respect of scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of shares of Common Stock. The Company ~~will~~ shall not pay any dividend or make any distribution on shares of Common Stock held in the treasury of the Company. (2i) ~~In case at~~ Notwithstanding any ~~time after the Closing Date, the Company shall issue rights or warrants to all holders of its Common Stock (not being available on an equivalent basis to holders~~ of the ~~Debentures upon conversion) entitling them~~ foregoing, in no event shall the Conversion Rate as adjusted pursuant to ~~subscribe for or purchase~~ this Section 9.8 exceed 35.8422 shares of Common Stock ~~at a price~~ issuable upon conversion per ~~share less~~ $1,000 principal amount of Notes, other than ~~the current market price per share (determined as provided in paragraph (8)~~ on account of ~~this Section 15.4) of the Common Stock on the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled~~ proportional adjustments to ~~receive such rights or warrants,~~ the Conversion Rate in ~~effect at~~ the opening of business on the day following the date fixed for such determination shall be increased by dividing such Conversion Rate by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at the close of business on the date fixed for such determination plus the number of shares of Common Stock which the aggregate of the offering price of the total number of shares of Common Stock so offered for subscription manner set forth in paragraphs (a) through (c) or purchase would purchase at such current market price and the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at the close of business on the date fixed for such determination plus the number of shares of Common Stock so offered for subscription or purchase, such increase to become effective immediately after the opening of business on the day following the date fixed for such determination. However, upon the expiration of any right or warrant to purchase Common Stock the issuance of which resulted in an adjustment in the Conversion Rate pursuant to this subsection (2), if any such right or warrant shall expire and shall not have been exercised, the Conversion Rate shall immediately upon such expiration be recomputed and effective immediately upon such expiration be increased to the price which it would have been (but reflecting any other adjustments in the Conversion Rate made pursuant to the provisions of this Section 15.4 after the issuance of such rights or warrants) had the adjustment of the Conversion Rate made upon the issuance of such rights or warrants been made on the basis of offering for subscription or purchase only that number of shares of Common Stock actually purchased upon the exercise of such rights or warrants actually exercised. For the purposes of this paragraph (2), the number of shares of Common Stock at any time outstanding shall not include shares held in the treasury of the Company but will include shares issuable in respect of scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of shares of Common Stock. The Company will not issue any rights or warrants in respect of shares of Common Stock held in the treasury of the Company. (3) In case at any time after the Closing Date, outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be subdivided into a greater number of shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Rate in effect at the opening of business on the day following the day upon which such subdivision becomes effective shall be proportionately increased and, conversely, in case at any time after the date hereof, outstanding shares of Common Stock shall each be combined into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Rate in effect at the opening of business on the day following the day upon which such combination becomes effective shall be proportionately reduced, such increase or reduction, 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. (4) In case at any time after the Closing Date, the Company shall, by dividend or otherwise, distribute to all holders of its Common Stock evidences of its indebtedness or assets (including stock or other securities of the Company or any other issuer, but excluding any rights or warrants referred to in paragraph (2e) of this Section ~~15.4,~~ 9.8. This Section 9.8 shall not apply to any ~~dividend~~ event or distribution paid exclusively in cash and any dividend or distribution referred to in paragraph (1) of this Section 15.4), the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted so that the same shall equal the rate determined by dividing the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the current market price per share (determined as provided in paragraph (8) of this Section 15.4) of the Common Stock on the date fixed for such determination less the then fair market value (each reference to "fair market value" in this Section 15.4 shall mean the fair market value as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company in good faith, whose determination shall be described in a Board Resolution, a copy of which shall be delivered to each holder of Debentures within ten (10) days of the adoption of the resolution) of the portion of the assets or evidences of indebtedness so distributed applicable to one (1) share of Common Stock and the denominator shall be such current market price per share of the Common Stock, such adjustment to become effective immediately prior to the opening of business on the day following the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution. (5) In case at any time after the Closing Date (A) the Company shall, by dividend or otherwise, distribute to all holders of its Common Stock cash (excluding any cash occurrence that is ~~distributed upon a merger or consolidation~~ subject to ~~which~~ Section 15.13 applies or as part of a distribution referred to in paragraph (4) of this Section 15.4) and (B)(I) the total of (x) the aggregate amount of such cash distribution, (y) the aggregate amount of any other distributions to all holders of its Common Stock made exclusively in cash within the twelve (12) months preceding the date of payment of such distribution and in respect of which no adjustment pursuant to this paragraph (5) or paragraph (6) of this Section 15.4 has been made and (z) the aggregate of any cash plus the fair market value of other consideration payable in respect of any tender offers by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for all or any portion of the Common Stock concluded within the twelve (12) months preceding the date of payment of such distribution and in respect of which no adjustment pursuant to this paragraph (5) or paragraph (6) of this Section 15.4 has been made, exceeds (II) ten percent (10%) of the product of the current market price per share (determined as provided in paragraph (8) of this Section 15.4) of the Common Stock on the date for the determination of holders of shares of Common Stock entitled to receive such distribution times the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such date, then, and in each such case, immediately after the close of business on such date for determination, the Conversion Rate shall be increased so that the same shall equal the rate determined by dividing the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the date fixed for determination of the stockholders entitled to receive such distribution by a fraction (i) the numerator of which shall be equal to such current market price per share on the date fixed for such determination less an amount equal to the quotient of (X) the sum of (I) the total of the amounts referred to in subclauses (B)(I)(x) and (y) of this paragraph (5) and (II) the aggregate of the excess of the amount referred to in subclause (B)(I)(z) of this paragraph (5) for each tender offer so referred to over the aggregate current market price of the shares of Common Stock purchased in such tender offer as of the Expiration Time (as hereinafter defined) for such tender offer divided by (Y) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such date for determination and (ii) the denominator of which shall be equal to such current market price per share on such date for determination9.14. (6) In case at any time after the Closing Date (A) a tender offer made by the Company or any Subsidiary for all or any portion of the Common Stock shall expire and (B)(I) the total of (x) the fair market value of the aggregate consideration required to be paid pursuant to such tender offer (as amended upon the expiration thereof) to stockholders (based on the acceptance (up to any maximum specified in the terms of the tender offer) of Purchased Shares (as defined below)), (y) the aggregate of the cash plus the fair market value, as of the expiration of such tender offer, of consideration payable in respect of any other tender offer, by the Company or any Subsidiary for all or any portion of the Common Stock expiring within the twelve (12) months preceding the expiration of such tender offer and in respect of which no adjustment pursuant to this paragraph (6) or paragraph (5) of this Section 15.4 has been made and (z) the aggregate amount of any distributions to all holders of the Company's Common Stock made exclusively in cash within twelve (12) months preceding the expiration of such tender offer and in respect of which no adjustment pursuant to this paragraph (6) or paragraph (5) of this Section 15.4 has been made, exceeds (II) ten percent (10%) of the product of the current market price per share of the Common Stock (determined as provided in paragraph (8) of this Section 15.4) on the date of the last time (the "Expiration Time") tenders could have been made pursuant to such tender offer (as it may be amended) times the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (including any tendered shares) on the Expiration Time, then, and in each such case, immediately prior to the opening of business on the day after the date of the Expiration Time, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted so that the same shall equal the price determined by dividing the Conversion Rate immediately prior to the close of business on the date of the Expiration Time by a fraction (i) the numerator of which shall be equal to (a) the product of (I) such current market price per share on the date of the Expiration Time and (II) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (including any tendered shares) as of the Expiration Time less (b) the total of the amounts referred to in Clause (B)(I) of this paragraph (6), and (ii) the denominator of which shall be equal to the product of (a) such current market price per share on the date of the Expiration Time and (b) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (including any tendered shares) as of the Expiration Time less the number 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"). (7) The reclassification of Common Stock into securities other than Common Stock (other than any reclassification upon a consolidation or merger to which Section 15.13 applies) shall be deemed to involve (a) a distribution of such securities other than Common Stock to all holders of Common Stock (and the effective date of such reclassification shall be deemed to be "the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution" and "the date fixed for such determination" within the meaning of paragraph (4) of this Section 15.4), and (b) a subdivision or combination, as the case may be, of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such reclassification into the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately thereafter (and the effective date of such reclassification shall be deemed to be "the day upon which such subdivision becomes effective" or "the day upon which such combination becomes effective", as the case may be, and "the day upon which such subdivision or combination becomes effective" within the meaning of paragraph (3) of this Section 15.4). (8) For the purpose of any computation under paragraph (2), (4), (5) or (6) of this Section 15.4, the current market price per share of Common Stock on any date shall be calculated by the Company and be deemed to be the average of the daily Closing Price per share of Common Stock for the five (5) consecutive Trading Days before, and ending not later than, the earlier of (i) the day in question and (ii) the day before the "ex" date with respect to the issuance or distribution requiring such computation. For purposes of this paragraph, the term "'ex' date", when used with respect to any issuance or distribution, means the first date on which the Common Stock trades regular way on the applicable securities exchange or in the applicable securities market without the right to receive such issuance or distribution. (9) The Company may make such increases in the Conversion Rate, for the remaining term of the Debentures or any shorter term, in addition to those required by paragraphs (1), (2), (3), (4), (5) and (6) of this Section 15.4, as it considers to be advisable in order to avoid or diminish any income tax to any holders of shares of Common Stock resulting from any dividend or distribution of stock or issuance of rights or warrants to purchase or subscribe for stock or from any event treated as such for income tax purposes or for any other reasons.

Adjustments to Conversion Rate. The Conversion Rate shall be ~~subject to adjustments~~ adjusted from time to ~~time~~ time, without duplication, as follows: (1a) In case ~~at any time after the Closing Date~~ the Company shall (i) pay a dividend or make a ~~dividend or other~~ distribution on ~~any class of Capital~~ its Common Stock ~~of the Company (other than the Series C Preferred Stock)~~ exclusively in shares of its Common Stock; (ii) subdivide its outstanding Common Stock into a greater number of shares; or (iii) combine its outstanding Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the record date or effective date, as the case may be, for the adjustment pursuant to this Section 7.06(a) as described below, shall be adjusted so that the Holder of any Notes thereafter surrendered for conversion shall be entitled to receive 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 Notes been converted immediately prior to such record date or effective date, as the case may be. An adjustment made pursuant to this Section 7.06(a) shall become effective immediately after the applicable record date in the case of a dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the applicable effective date in the case of subdivision or combination of the Company's Common Stock. If any dividend or distribution of the type described in clause (i) above is not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall again be adjusted to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared. (b) In case the Company shall issue rights or warrants to all holders of the Common Stock entitling them (for a period expiring within 60 days after the date of issuance of such rights or warrants) to subscribe for or purchase Common Stock at a price per share less than the ~~opening~~ Market Price per share of ~~business~~ Common Stock on the ~~day following the~~ record date fixed for ~~the~~ determination of stockholders entitled to receive such ~~dividend~~ rights or ~~other distribution~~ warrants, the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after such record date shall be ~~increased by dividing such~~ adjusted so that the same shall equal the Conversion Rate determined by multiplying the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after such record date by a fraction of which (i) the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at on such record date plus the ~~close~~ number of ~~business on the date fixed~~ additional shares of Common Stock offered for ~~such determination~~ subscription or purchase, and (ii) the denominator shall be the ~~sum of such~~ number of shares ~~and~~ of Common Stock outstanding on such record date plus the number of shares which the aggregate offering price of the total number of shares ~~constituting~~ so offered would purchase at the Market Price per share of Common Stock on the earlier of such ~~dividend~~ record date or ~~other distribution~~the Trading Day immediately preceding the ex-date for such issuance of rights or warrants. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever any such rights or warrants are issued, ~~such increase to~~ and shall become effective immediately after the opening of business on the day following the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants. To the extent that shares of Common Stock are not delivered after the expiration of such rights or warrants, the Conversion Rate shall be readjusted to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect had the adjustments made upon the issuance of such rights or warrants been made on the basis of delivery of only the number of shares of Common Stock actually delivered. If such rights or warrants are not so issued, the Conversion Rate shall again be adjusted to be the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants had not been fixed. In determining whether any rights or warrants entitle the holders to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at less than such Market Price, and in determining the aggregate offering price of such shares of Common Stock, there shall be taken into account any consideration received by the Company for such rights or warrants, the value of such consideration, if other than cash, to be determined by the Board of Directors. (c) In case the Company shall, by dividend or otherwise, distribute to all holders of Common Stock any assets, debt securities, shares of any class of capital stock of the Company or rights or warrants to purchase any of its securities (excluding (i) any dividend, distribution or issuance covered by those referred to in Section 7.06(a) or 7.06(b) hereof and (ii) any dividend or distribution paid exclusively in cash) (any of the foregoing hereinafter in this Section 7.06(c) called the "Distributed Assets or Securities"), then, in each case, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted (unless Section 7.06(e) applies, in which case the adjustment shall be made as provided therein) so that the same shall equal the Conversion Rate determined by multiplying the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the record date mentioned below by a fraction of which (A) the numerator shall be the Market Price per share of the Common Stock on the earlier of the record date or the Trading Day immediately preceding the ex- date for such dividend or distribution, and (B) the denominator shall be (1) the Market Price per share of the Common Stock on the earlier of such record date or the Trading Day immediately preceding the ex-date for such dividend or distribution less (2) the Fair Market Value on the earlier of such record date or the Trading Day immediately preceding the ex-date for such dividend or distribution (as determined by the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive, and described in a certificate filed with the Trustee and the Conversion Agent) of the Distributed Assets or Securities so distributed applicable to one share of Common Stock. Such adjustment shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution; provided, however, that, if (i) the Fair Market Value of the portion of the Distributed Assets or Securities so distributed applicable to one share of Common Stock is equal to or greater than the Market Price of the Common Stock on the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution or (ii) the Market Price of the Common Stock on the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution is greater than the Fair Market Value per share of such Distributed Assets or Securities by less than $1.00, 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 shares of Common Stock, the kind and amount of assets, debt securities, shares of our capital stock or rights or warrants comprising the Distributed Assets or Securities the Holder would have received had such Holder converted such Notes immediately prior to the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution. In the event that such distribution is not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall again be adjusted to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such distribution had not been declared. (d) In case the Company shall make any distributions, by dividend or otherwise, consisting exclusively of cash to all holders of Common Stock, other than cash dividends on Common Stock in amounts up to $0.25 aggregate cash dividends per share of Common Stock in any six month period (the "Dividend Threshold Amount"), then, in such case, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted so that the same shall equal the Conversion Rate determined by multiplying the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the record date fixed for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive such ~~determination~~distribution by a fraction of which (A) the numerator shall be the Market Price per share of the Common Stock on the earlier of such record date or the Trading Day immediately preceding the ex-date for such dividend or distribution and (B) the denominator shall be (1) the Market Price per share of Common Stock on the earlier of such record date or the Trading Day immediately preceding the ex-date for such dividend or distribution less (2) the amount of cash so distributed applicable to one share of Common Stock (in the case of cash dividends, that amount in excess of the Dividend Threshold Amount). Such adjustment shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution; provided that if (i) the portion of the cash so distributed applicable to one share of Common Stock is equal to or greater than the Market Price of the Common Stock on the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution or (ii) the Market Price of the Common Stock on the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution is greater than the portion of the cash so distributed applicable to one share of Common Stock by less than $1.00, 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 shares of Common Stock, the amount of cash such Holder would have received had such Holder converted such Notes immediately prior to the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution. In the event that such distribution is not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall again be adjusted to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such distribution had not been declared. If any adjustment is required to be made by this Section 7.06(d) as a result of a distribution of a dividend in any six month period that exceeds the Dividend Threshold Amount, such adjustment shall be based upon the amount by which such distribution exceeds the Dividend Threshold Amount. If an adjustment is otherwise required to be made by this Section 7.06(d), such adjustment shall be based upon the full amount of the distribution. (e) With respect to Section 7.06(c) above, in the event that the Company makes any distribution to all holders of Common Stock for which an adjustment is required by Section 7.06(c) consisting of Equity Interests in a Subsidiary or other business unit of the Company, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted so that the same shall equal the Conversion Rate determined by multiplying the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the record date fixed for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive such distribution by a fraction of which (i) the numerator shall be (x) the Spin-off Market Price per share of the Common Stock on such record date plus (y) the Spin-off Market Price per Equity Interest of the Subsidiary or other business unit of the Company on such record date and (ii) the denominator shall be the Spin-off Market Price per share of the Common Stock on such record date, such adjustment to become effective immediately after the effective date of such distribution of Equity Interests in a Subsidiary or other business unit of the Company. (f) In case a tender or exchange offer made by the Company or any Subsidiary 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 certificate filed with the Trustee and the Conversion Agent) 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 Last Reported Sale Price of a share of Common Stock on the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Time, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted so that the same shall equal the Conversion Rate determined by multiplying the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the Expiration Time by a fraction, of which (i) the numerator 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") and (y) the product of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (less any Purchased Shares) at the Expiration Time and the Last Reported Sale Price of a share of Common Stock on the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Time, and (ii) the denominator shall be the product of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (including any Purchased Shares) at the Expiration Time and the Last Reported Sale Price of a share of Common Stock on the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Time. Such adjustment shall become effective immediately prior to the opening of business on the day following the Expiration Time. If 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 Rate shall again be adjusted to be the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such tender or exchange offer had not been made. (g) Upon conversion of the Notes, the Holders shall receive, in addition to the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion, the rights issued under any future shareholder rights plan the Company implements (notwithstanding the occurrence of an event causing such rights to separate from the Common Stock at or prior to the time of conversion) unless, prior to conversion, such rights have expired, terminated or been redeemed or exchanged in accordance with such future shareholders rights plan. If, and only if, the Holders of Notes receive rights under such shareholder rights plan as described in the preceding sentence upon conversion of their Notes, then no other adjustment pursuant to this Section 7.06 shall be made in connection with such shareholder rights plan, but an adjustment to the Conversion Rate shall be made pursuant to Section 7.06(c) hereof upon the separation of the rights from the Common Stock. (h) For ~~the~~ purposes of this ~~paragraph (1)~~Section 7.06, the number of shares of Common Stock at any time outstanding shall not include shares held in the treasury of the Company but shall include shares issuable in respect of scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of shares of Common Stock. The Company ~~will~~ shall not pay any dividend or make any distribution on shares of Common Stock held in the treasury of the Company. (2i) ~~In case at any time after~~ Notwithstanding the ~~Closing Date~~foregoing, ~~the Company~~ in no event shall issue rights or warrants to all holders of its Common Stock (not being available on an equivalent basis to holders of the Debentures upon conversion) entitling them to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at a price per share less than the current market price per share (determined as provided in paragraph (8) of this Section 15.4) of the Common Stock on the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants, the Conversion Rate ~~in effect at~~ exceed the ~~opening~~ maximum conversion rate specified under this Section 7.06(i) (the "Maximum Conversion Rate") as a result of ~~business on the day following the date fixed for such determination shall be increased by dividing such~~ an adjustment pursuant to Section 7.06(d) and Section 7.06(f) hereof. The Maximum Conversion Rate ~~by a fraction of which~~ shall initially be 47.3934. The Maximum Conversion Rate is subject to the ~~numerator shall be~~ same proportional adjustments made to the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at the close of business on the date fixed for such determination plus the number of shares of Common Stock which the aggregate of the offering price of the total number of shares of Common Stock so offered for subscription Conversion Rate pursuant to Section 7.06(a), (b), (c) or purchase would purchase at such current market price and the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at the close of business on the date fixed for such determination plus the number of shares of Common Stock so offered for subscription (e) hereof. (j) If any adjustment or ~~purchase, such increase~~ readjustment is made to become effective immediately after the opening of business on the day following the date fixed for such determination. However, upon the expiration of any right or warrant to purchase Common Stock the issuance of which resulted in an adjustment in the Conversion Rate pursuant to this ~~subsection~~ Section 7.06 (2other than pursuant to Section 7.06(d)), ~~if any such right or warrant~~ the same proportional adjustment shall ~~expire and~~ be made to the Dividend Threshold Amount; provided that the Dividend Threshold Amount shall ~~not have been exercised,~~ be decreased whenever the Conversion Rate ~~shall immediately upon such expiration be recomputed~~ is increased and ~~effective immediately upon such expiration be~~ increased ~~to the price which it would have been (but reflecting any other adjustments in~~ whenever the Conversion Rate made pursuant to the provisions of this Section 15.4 after the issuance of such rights or warrants) had the adjustment of the Conversion Rate made upon the issuance of such rights or warrants been made on the basis of offering for subscription or purchase only that number of shares of Common Stock actually purchased upon the exercise of such rights or warrants actually exercised. For the purposes of this paragraph (2), the number of shares of Common Stock at any time outstanding shall not include shares held in the treasury of the Company but will include shares issuable in respect of scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of shares of Common Stock. The Company will not issue any rights or warrants in respect of shares of Common Stock held in the treasury of the Companyis decreased. (3) In case at any time after the Closing Date, outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be subdivided into a greater number of shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Rate in effect at the opening of business on the day following the day upon which such subdivision becomes effective shall be proportionately increased and, conversely, in case at any time after the date hereof, outstanding shares of Common Stock shall each be combined into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Rate in effect at the opening of business on the day following the day upon which such combination becomes effective shall be proportionately reduced, such increase or reduction, 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. (4) In case at any time after the Closing Date, the Company shall, by dividend or otherwise, distribute to all holders of its Common Stock evidences of its indebtedness or assets (including stock or other securities of the Company or any other issuer, but excluding any rights or warrants referred to in paragraph (2) of this Section 15.4, any dividend or distribution paid exclusively in cash and any dividend or distribution referred to in paragraph (1) of this Section 15.4), the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted so that the same shall equal the rate determined by dividing the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the current market price per share (determined as provided in paragraph (8) of this Section 15.4) of the Common Stock on the date fixed for such determination less the then fair market value (each reference to "fair market value" in this Section 15.4 shall mean the fair market value as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company in good faith, whose determination shall be described in a Board Resolution, a copy of which shall be delivered to each holder of Debentures within ten (10) days of the adoption of the resolution) of the portion of the assets or evidences of indebtedness so distributed applicable to one (1) share of Common Stock and the denominator shall be such current market price per share of the Common Stock, such adjustment to become effective immediately prior to the opening of business on the day following the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution. (5) In case at any time after the Closing Date (A) 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 15.13 applies or as part of a distribution referred to in paragraph (4) of this Section 15.4) and (B)(I) the total of (x) the aggregate amount of such cash distribution, (y) the aggregate amount of any other distributions to all holders of its Common Stock made exclusively in cash within the twelve (12) months preceding the date of payment of such distribution and in respect of which no adjustment pursuant to this paragraph (5) or paragraph (6) of this Section 15.4 has been made and (z) the aggregate of any cash plus the fair market value of other consideration payable in respect of any tender offers by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for all or any portion of the Common Stock concluded within the twelve (12) months preceding the date of payment of such distribution and in respect of which no adjustment pursuant to this paragraph (5) or paragraph (6) of this Section 15.4 has been made, exceeds (II) ten percent (10%) of the product of the current market price per share (determined as provided in paragraph (8) of this Section 15.4) of the Common Stock on the date for the determination of holders of shares of Common Stock entitled to receive such distribution times the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such date, then, and in each such case, immediately after the close of business on such date for determination, the Conversion Rate shall be increased so that the same shall equal the rate determined by dividing the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the date fixed for determination of the stockholders entitled to receive such distribution by a fraction (i) the numerator of which shall be equal to such current market price per share on the date fixed for such determination less an amount equal to the quotient of (X) the sum of (I) the total of the amounts referred to in subclauses (B)(I)(x) and (y) of this paragraph (5) and (II) the aggregate of the excess of the amount referred to in subclause (B)(I)(z) of this paragraph (5) for each tender offer so referred to over the aggregate current market price of the shares of Common Stock purchased in such tender offer as of the Expiration Time (as hereinafter defined) for such tender offer divided by (Y) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such date for determination and (ii) the denominator of which shall be equal to such current market price per share on such date for determination. (6) In case at any time after the Closing Date (A) a tender offer made by the Company or any Subsidiary for all or any portion of the Common Stock shall expire and (B)(I) the total of (x) the fair market value of the aggregate consideration required to be paid pursuant to such tender offer (as amended upon the expiration thereof) to stockholders (based on the acceptance (up to any maximum specified in the terms of the tender offer) of Purchased Shares (as defined below)), (y) the aggregate of the cash plus the fair market value, as of the expiration of such tender offer, of consideration payable in respect of any other tender offer, by the Company or any Subsidiary for all or any portion of the Common Stock expiring within the twelve (12) months preceding the expiration of such tender offer and in respect of which no adjustment pursuant to this paragraph (6) or paragraph (5) of this Section 15.4 has been made and (z) the aggregate amount of any distributions to all holders of the Company's Common Stock made exclusively in cash within twelve (12) months preceding the expiration of such tender offer and in respect of which no adjustment pursuant to this paragraph (6) or paragraph (5) of this Section 15.4 has been made, exceeds (II) ten percent (10%) of the product of the current market price per share of the Common Stock (determined as provided in paragraph (8) of this Section 15.4) on the date of the last time (the "Expiration Time") tenders could have been made pursuant to such tender offer (as it may be amended) times the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (including any tendered shares) on the Expiration Time, then, and in each such case, immediately prior to the opening of business on the day after the date of the Expiration Time, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted so that the same shall equal the price determined by dividing the Conversion Rate immediately prior to the close of business on the date of the Expiration Time by a fraction (i) the numerator of which shall be equal to (a) the product of (I) such current market price per share on the date of the Expiration Time and (II) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (including any tendered shares) as of the Expiration Time less (b) the total of the amounts referred to in Clause (B)(I) of this paragraph (6), and (ii) the denominator of which shall be equal to the product of (a) such current market price per share on the date of the Expiration Time and (b) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (including any tendered shares) as of the Expiration Time less the number 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"). (7) The reclassification of Common Stock into securities other than Common Stock (other than any reclassification upon a consolidation or merger to which Section 15.13 applies) shall be deemed to involve (a) a distribution of such securities other than Common Stock to all holders of Common Stock (and the effective date of such reclassification shall be deemed to be "the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution" and "the date fixed for such determination" within the meaning of paragraph (4) of this Section 15.4), and (b) a subdivision or combination, as the case may be, of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such reclassification into the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately thereafter (and the effective date of such reclassification shall be deemed to be "the day upon which such subdivision becomes effective" or "the day upon which such combination becomes effective", as the case may be, and "the day upon which such subdivision or combination becomes effective" within the meaning of paragraph (3) of this Section 15.4). (8) For the purpose of any computation under paragraph (2), (4), (5) or (6) of this Section 15.4, the current market price per share of Common Stock on any date shall be calculated by the Company and be deemed to be the average of the daily Closing Price per share of Common Stock for the five (5) consecutive Trading Days before, and ending not later than, the earlier of (i) the day in question and (ii) the day before the "ex" date with respect to the issuance or distribution requiring such computation. For purposes of this paragraph, the term "'ex' date", when used with respect to any issuance or distribution, means the first date on which the Common Stock trades regular way on the applicable securities exchange or in the applicable securities market without the right to receive such issuance or distribution. (9) The Company may make such increases in the Conversion Rate, for the remaining term of the Debentures or any shorter term, in addition to those required by paragraphs (1), (2), (3), (4), (5) and (6) of this Section 15.4, as it considers to be advisable in order to avoid or diminish any income tax to any holders of shares of Common Stock resulting from any dividend or distribution of stock or issuance of rights or warrants to purchase or subscribe for stock or from any event treated as such for income tax purposes or for any other reasons.

For the purposes of this paragraph (1), the number of shares of Common Stock at any time outstanding shall not include shares held in the treasury of the Company but shall include shares issuable in respect of scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of shares of Common Stock.

(4) In case at any time after the Closing Date, the Company shall, by dividend or otherwise, distribute to all holders of its ~~Common~~ Voting Stock (excluding any distribution in connection with the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary) any shares of any class of capital stock of the Company (other than Voting Stock) or evidences of its indebtedness or assets (~~including stock~~ other than Cash) or ~~other securities of the Company or any other issuer, but excluding any~~ rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any of its Debentures (excluding those referred to in ~~paragraph~~ Section 2.07(2) hereof) (2) any of the foregoing hereinafter in this Section ~~15.4~~2.07(3) called the "Distributed Securities"), ~~any dividend or distribution paid exclusively in cash and any dividend or distribution referred to in paragraph (1) of this Section 15.4)~~then, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted so that the same shall equal the ~~rate~~ Conversion Rate determined by ~~dividing~~ multiplying the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the ~~close~~ date of ~~business on the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive~~ such distribution by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the ~~current market price~~ Market Price per share ~~(determined as provided in paragraph (8) of this Section 15.4)~~ of the Common Stock on the ~~date fixed for~~ Record Date mentioned below, and the denominator shall be the Market Price per share of the Common Stock on such ~~determination~~ Record Date less ~~the then fair market value (each reference to "fair market value" in this Section 15.4 shall mean~~ the fair market value on such Record Date (as determined by the Board of Directors of the ~~Company in good faith~~Company, whose determination shall be conclusive, and described in a ~~Board Resolution, a copy of which shall be delivered to each holder of Debentures within ten (10) days of~~ certificate filed with the ~~adoption of the resolution~~Trustee) of the ~~portion of the assets or evidences of indebtedness~~ Distributed Securities so distributed applicable to one ~~(1)~~ share of ~~Common Stock and the denominator~~ Voting Stock.

In the event that such distribution is not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall again be adjusted to the Conversion Rate which would then be in effect if such distribution had not been declared. If the Board of Directors determines the fair market value of any distribution for purposes of this Section 2.07(3) by reference to the actual or when issued trading market for any Debentures, it must in doing so consider the prices in such market over the same period used in computing the Market Price of the Common Stock. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.07(3), no adjustment shall be made thereunder for any distribution of Distributed Securities if the Company makes proper provision so that each Holder of a Debenture who converts such Debenture (or any portion thereof) after the Record Date for In the event the Company implements a stockholder rights plan, such rights plan shall provide that upon conversion of the Debentures the Holders shall receive, in addition to the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion, the rights issued under such rights plan (notwithstanding the occurrence of an event causing such rights to separate from the Common Stock at or prior to the time of conversion).

(7~~) The reclassification of Common Stock into securities other than Common Stock (other than any reclassification upon a consolidation or merger to which Section 15.13 applies) shall be deemed to involve (a) a distribution of such securities other than Common Stock to all holders of Common Stock (and the effective date of such reclassification shall be deemed to be "the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution" and "the date fixed for such determination" within the meaning of paragraph (4) of this Section 15.4), and (by) ~~a subdivision or combination, as~~ the ~~case may be,~~ product of the number of shares of Voting Stock outstanding (less any Purchased Shares) on the Expiration Time and the Market Price of the Common Stock ~~outstanding~~ on the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Time such reduction (if any) to become effective immediately prior to the opening of business on the day following the Expiration Time. If the Company is obligated to purchase shares pursuant to any such ~~reclassification into~~ tender offer, but the Company is permanently prevented by applicable law from effecting any such purchases or all such purchases are rescinded, the Conversion Rate shall again be adjusted to be the Conversion Rate which would then be in effect if such tender offer had not been made. (6) For purposes of this Section 2.07, the number of shares of ~~Common~~ Voting Stock at any time outstanding ~~immediately thereafter (and~~ shall not include shares held in the ~~effective date~~ treasury of such reclassification shall be deemed to be "the day upon which such subdivision becomes effective" or "the day upon which such combination becomes effective", as the case may be, and "the day upon which such subdivision or combination becomes effective" within the meaning of paragraph (3) of this Section 15.4). (8) For the purpose of any computation under paragraph (2), (4), (5) or (6) of this Section 15.4, the current market price per share of Common Stock on any date shall be calculated by the Company ~~and be deemed to be the average~~ but shall include shares issuable in respect of ~~the daily Closing Price per share~~ scrip certificates issued in lieu of Common Stock for the five (5) consecutive Trading Days before, and ending not later than, the earlier of (i) the day in question and (ii) the day before the "ex" date with respect to the issuance or distribution requiring such computation. For purposes of this paragraph, the term "'ex' date", when used with respect to any issuance or distribution, means the first date on which the Common Stock trades regular way on the applicable securities exchange or in the applicable securities market without the right to receive such issuance or distribution. (9) The Company may make such increases in the Conversion Rate, for the remaining term of the Debentures or any shorter term, in addition to those required by paragraphs (1), (2), (3), (4), (5) and (6) of this Section 15.4, as it considers to be advisable in order to avoid or diminish any income tax to any holders fractions of shares of ~~Common Stock resulting from~~ Voting Stock.

Adjustments to Conversion Rate. The Conversion Rate shall be ~~subject to adjustments~~ adjusted from time to time by the Company as follows: (1) In case ~~at any time after the Closing Date~~ the Company shall (a) pay a dividend, or make a ~~dividend or other distribution on any class of Capital Stock of the Company (other than the Series C Preferred Stock)~~ distribution, exclusively in shares of its Common Stock or other capital stock, on its Common Stock; (b) subdivide its outstanding Common Stock into a greater number of shares; (c) combine its outstanding Common Stock into a smaller number of shares; or (d) reclassify its Common Stock, the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the effective date for the adjustment pursuant to this Section 2.07(1), as described below, shall be adjusted so that the Holder of any Notes thereafter surrendered for conversion shall be entitled to receive 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 Notes been converted immediately prior to such effective date. If any dividend or distribution of the type described in clause (a) above is not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall again be adjusted to the Conversion Rate which would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared. An adjustment made pursuant to this Section 2.07(1) shall become effective immediately after the applicable Record Date in the case of a dividend and shall become effective immediately after the applicable effective date in the case of subdivision, combination or reclassification of the Company’s Common Stock. (2) In case the Company shall issue rights or warrants to all holders of its Common Stock entitling them (for a period expiring within 60 days after the date of issuance of such rights or warrants) to subscribe for or purchase Common Stock at a price per share less than the ~~opening~~ Market Price per share of ~~business~~ Common Stock on the ~~day following the date~~ Record Date fixed for ~~the~~ determination of stockholders entitled to receive such ~~dividend~~ rights or ~~other distribution~~ warrants, the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after such Record Date shall be ~~increased by dividing such~~ adjusted so that the same shall equal the Conversion Rate determined by multiplying the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after such Record Date by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at on such Record Date plus the ~~close~~ number of ~~business on the date fixed~~ additional shares of Common Stock offered for ~~such determination~~ subscription or purchase, and of which the denominator shall be the ~~sum of such~~ number of shares ~~and~~ of Common Stock outstanding on such Record Date plus the number of shares which the aggregate offering price of the total number of shares ~~constituting~~ so offered would purchase at such ~~dividend~~ Market Price. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever any such rights or ~~other distribution~~warrants are issued, ~~such increase to~~ and shall become effective immediately after the opening of business on the day following the ~~date fixed~~ Record Date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants. To the extent that shares of Common Stock are not delivered after the expiration of such rights or warrants, the Conversion Rate shall be readjusted to the Conversion Rate which would then be in effect had the adjustments made upon the issuance of such rights or warrants been made on the basis of delivery of only the number of shares of Common Stock actually delivered. If such rights or warrants are not so issued, the Conversion Rate shall again be adjusted to be the Conversion Rate which would then be in effect if such Record Date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants had not been fixed. In determining whether any rights or warrants entitle the holders to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at less than such Market Price, and in determining the aggregate offering price of such shares of Common Stock, there shall be taken into account any consideration received by the Company for such ~~determination~~rights or warrants, the value of such consideration, if other than cash, to be determined by the Board of Directors. (3) In case the Company shall, by dividend or otherwise, distribute to all holders of its Common Stock (excluding any distribution in connection with the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary) any evidences of its indebtedness or assets or rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any of its securities (excluding those referred to in Section 2.07(2) or (4) hereof) (any of the foregoing hereinafter in this Section 2.07(3) called the “Distributed Assets or Securities”) in an aggregate amount that, combined together with the aggregate amount of any other such distributions to all holders of its Common Stock made within the 12 months preceding the date of payment of such distribution, and in respect of which no adjustment pursuant to this Section 2.07(3) has been made, exceeds 15% of the product of the Market Price on the Trading Day immediately preceding the declaration of such distribution and the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such date, then, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted so that the same shall equal the Conversion Rate determined by multiplying the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the Record Date mentioned below by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the Market Price per share of the Common Stock on such Record Date, and the denominator shall be the 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, and described in a certificate filed with the Trustee and the Paying Agent) of the Distributed Assets or Securities so distributed applicable to one share of Common Stock. Such adjustment shall become effective immediately after the Record Date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution; provided, however, that, if (a) the Fair Market Value of the portion of the Distributed Assets or Securities so distributed applicable to one share of Common Stock is equal to or greater than the Market Price of the Common Stock on the Record Date or (b) the Market Price of the Common Stock on the Record Date is greater than the Fair Market Value of such Distributed Assets or Securities by less than $1.00, 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 shares of Common Stock, the kind and amount of assets, debt securities, or rights, warrants or options the Holder would have received had such Holder converted such Notes immediately prior to such Record Date. In the event that such distribution is not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall again be adjusted to the Conversion Rate which would then be in effect if such distribution had not been declared. (4) In case the Company shall, by dividend or otherwise, distribute to all or substantially all holders of outstanding shares of its Common Stock distributions consisting of Cash, then the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted so that the same shall equal the rate determined by multiplying the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the Record Date for such distribution by a fraction of which: (A) the numerator shall be the Market Price per share of Common Stock on such Record Date, and (B) the denominator of which shall be equal to the Market Price per share of Common Stock on such Record Date less the amount per share of such distribution. Such adjustment shall become effective immediately after the Record Date for such distribution. (5) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of Section 2.07(2), (3) or (4), no adjustment shall be made thereunder for any distribution described therein if the Company makes proper provision so that each Holder who converts its Notes (or any portion thereof) after the Record Date for such distribution shall be entitled to receive upon such conversion, in addition to the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion, the amount and kind of assets or securities that such Holder would have been entitled to receive if such Holder had, immediately prior to such Record Date, converted such Notes for Common Stock; provided that, with respect to any Distributed Assets or Securities that are convertible, exchangeable or exercisable, the foregoing provision shall only apply to the extent (and so long as) the Distributed Assets or Securities receivable upon conversion of such Notes would be convertible, exchangeable or exercisable, as applicable, without any loss of rights or privileges for a period of at least 60 days following conversion of such Notes. (6) Upon conversion of the Notes, the Holders shall receive, in addition to the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion, the rights issued under any future stockholder rights plan the Company implements (notwithstanding the occurrence of an event causing such rights to separate from the Common Stock at or prior to the time of conversion). No adjustment pursuant to this Section 2.07 shall be made in connection with such stockholder rights plans. (7) For ~~the~~ purposes of this ~~paragraph (1)~~Section 2.07, the number of shares of Common Stock at any time outstanding shall not include shares held in the treasury of the Company but shall include shares issuable in respect of scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of shares of Common Stock. The Company ~~will~~ shall not pay any dividend or make any distribution on shares of Common Stock held in the treasury of the Company. (2) In case at any time after the Closing Date, the Company shall issue rights or warrants to all holders of its Common Stock (not being available on an equivalent basis to holders of the Debentures upon conversion) entitling them to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at a price per share less than the current market price per share (determined as provided in paragraph (8) of this Section 15.4) of the Common Stock on the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants, the Conversion Rate in effect at the opening of business on the day following the date fixed for such determination shall be increased by dividing such Conversion Rate by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at the close of business on the date fixed for such determination plus the number of shares of Common Stock which the aggregate of the offering price of the total number of shares of Common Stock so offered for subscription or purchase would purchase at such current market price and the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at the close of business on the date fixed for such determination plus the number of shares of Common Stock so offered for subscription or purchase, such increase to become effective immediately after the opening of business on the day following the date fixed for such determination. However, upon the expiration of any right or warrant to purchase Common Stock the issuance of which resulted in an adjustment in the Conversion Rate pursuant to this subsection (2), if any such right or warrant shall expire and shall not have been exercised, the Conversion Rate shall immediately upon such expiration be recomputed and effective immediately upon such expiration be increased to the price which it would have been (but reflecting any other adjustments in the Conversion Rate made pursuant to the provisions of this Section 15.4 after the issuance of such rights or warrants) had the adjustment of the Conversion Rate made upon the issuance of such rights or warrants been made on the basis of offering for subscription or purchase only that number of shares of Common Stock actually purchased upon the exercise of such rights or warrants actually exercised. For the purposes of this paragraph (2), the number of shares of Common Stock at any time outstanding shall not include shares held in the treasury of the Company but will include shares issuable in respect of scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of shares of Common Stock. The Company will not issue any rights or warrants in respect of shares of Common Stock held in the treasury of the Company. (3) In case at any time after the Closing Date, outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be subdivided into a greater number of shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Rate in effect at the opening of business on the day following the day upon which such subdivision becomes effective shall be proportionately increased and, conversely, in case at any time after the date hereof, outstanding shares of Common Stock shall each be combined into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Rate in effect at the opening of business on the day following the day upon which such combination becomes effective shall be proportionately reduced, such increase or reduction, 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. (4) In case at any time after the Closing Date, the Company shall, by dividend or otherwise, distribute to all holders of its Common Stock evidences of its indebtedness or assets (including stock or other securities of the Company or any other issuer, but excluding any rights or warrants referred to in paragraph (2) of this Section 15.4, any dividend or distribution paid exclusively in cash and any dividend or distribution referred to in paragraph (1) of this Section 15.4), the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted so that the same shall equal the rate determined by dividing the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the current market price per share (determined as provided in paragraph (8) of this Section 15.4) of the Common Stock on the date fixed for such determination less the then fair market value (each reference to "fair market value" in this Section 15.4 shall mean the fair market value as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company in good faith, whose determination shall be described in a Board Resolution, a copy of which shall be delivered to each holder of Debentures within ten (10) days of the adoption of the resolution) of the portion of the assets or evidences of indebtedness so distributed applicable to one (1) share of Common Stock and the denominator shall be such current market price per share of the Common Stock, such adjustment to become effective immediately prior to the opening of business on the day following the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution. (5) In case at any time after the Closing Date (A) 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 15.13 applies or as part of a distribution referred to in paragraph (4) of this Section 15.4) and (B)(I) the total of (x) the aggregate amount of such cash distribution, (y) the aggregate amount of any other distributions to all holders of its Common Stock made exclusively in cash within the twelve (12) months preceding the date of payment of such distribution and in respect of which no adjustment pursuant to this paragraph (5) or paragraph (6) of this Section 15.4 has been made and (z) the aggregate of any cash plus the fair market value of other consideration payable in respect of any tender offers by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for all or any portion of the Common Stock concluded within the twelve (12) months preceding the date of payment of such distribution and in respect of which no adjustment pursuant to this paragraph (5) or paragraph (6) of this Section 15.4 has been made, exceeds (II) ten percent (10%) of the product of the current market price per share (determined as provided in paragraph (8) of this Section 15.4) of the Common Stock on the date for the determination of holders of shares of Common Stock entitled to receive such distribution times the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such date, then, and in each such case, immediately after the close of business on such date for determination, the Conversion Rate shall be increased so that the same shall equal the rate determined by dividing the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the date fixed for determination of the stockholders entitled to receive such distribution by a fraction (i) the numerator of which shall be equal to such current market price per share on the date fixed for such determination less an amount equal to the quotient of (X) the sum of (I) the total of the amounts referred to in subclauses (B)(I)(x) and (y) of this paragraph (5) and (II) the aggregate of the excess of the amount referred to in subclause (B)(I)(z) of this paragraph (5) for each tender offer so referred to over the aggregate current market price of the shares of Common Stock purchased in such tender offer as of the Expiration Time (as hereinafter defined) for such tender offer divided by (Y) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such date for determination and (ii) the denominator of which shall be equal to such current market price per share on such date for determination. (6) In case at any time after the Closing Date (A) a tender offer made by the Company or any Subsidiary for all or any portion of the Common Stock shall expire and (B)(I) the total of (x) the fair market value of the aggregate consideration required to be paid pursuant to such tender offer (as amended upon the expiration thereof) to stockholders (based on the acceptance (up to any maximum specified in the terms of the tender offer) of Purchased Shares (as defined below)), (y) the aggregate of the cash plus the fair market value, as of the expiration of such tender offer, of consideration payable in respect of any other tender offer, by the Company or any Subsidiary for all or any portion of the Common Stock expiring within the twelve (12) months preceding the expiration of such tender offer and in respect of which no adjustment pursuant to this paragraph (6) or paragraph (5) of this Section 15.4 has been made and (z) the aggregate amount of any distributions to all holders of the Company's Common Stock made exclusively in cash within twelve (12) months preceding the expiration of such tender offer and in respect of which no adjustment pursuant to this paragraph (6) or paragraph (5) of this Section 15.4 has been made, exceeds (II) ten percent (10%) of the product of the current market price per share of the Common Stock (determined as provided in paragraph (8) of this Section 15.4) on the date of the last time (the "Expiration Time") tenders could have been made pursuant to such tender offer (as it may be amended) times the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (including any tendered shares) on the Expiration Time, then, and in each such case, immediately prior to the opening of business on the day after the date of the Expiration Time, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted so that the same shall equal the price determined by dividing the Conversion Rate immediately prior to the close of business on the date of the Expiration Time by a fraction (i) the numerator of which shall be equal to (a) the product of (I) such current market price per share on the date of the Expiration Time and (II) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (including any tendered shares) as of the Expiration Time less (b) the total of the amounts referred to in Clause (B)(I) of this paragraph (6), and (ii) the denominator of which shall be equal to the product of (a) such current market price per share on the date of the Expiration Time and (b) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (including any tendered shares) as of the Expiration Time less the number 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"). (7) The reclassification of Common Stock into securities other than Common Stock (other than any reclassification upon a consolidation or merger to which Section 15.13 applies) shall be deemed to involve (a) a distribution of such securities other than Common Stock to all holders of Common Stock (and the effective date of such reclassification shall be deemed to be "the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution" and "the date fixed for such determination" within the meaning of paragraph (4) of this Section 15.4), and (b) a subdivision or combination, as the case may be, of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such reclassification into the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately thereafter (and the effective date of such reclassification shall be deemed to be "the day upon which such subdivision becomes effective" or "the day upon which such combination becomes effective", as the case may be, and "the day upon which such subdivision or combination becomes effective" within the meaning of paragraph (3) of this Section 15.4). (8) For the purpose of any computation under paragraph (2), (4), (5) or (6) of this Section 15.4, the current market price per share of Common Stock on any date shall be calculated by the Company and be deemed to be the average of the daily Closing Price per share of Common Stock for the five (5) consecutive Trading Days before, and ending not later than, the earlier of (i) the day in question and (ii) the day before the "ex" date with respect to the issuance or distribution requiring such computation. For purposes of this paragraph, the term "'ex' date", when used with respect to any issuance or distribution, means the first date on which the Common Stock trades regular way on the applicable securities exchange or in the applicable securities market without the right to receive such issuance or distribution. (9) The Company may make such increases in the Conversion Rate, for the remaining term of the Debentures or any shorter term, in addition to those required by paragraphs (1), (2), (3), (4), (5) and (6) of this Section 15.4, as it considers to be advisable in order to avoid or diminish any income tax to any holders of shares of Common Stock resulting from any dividend or distribution of stock or issuance of rights or warrants to purchase or subscribe for stock or from any event treated as such for income tax purposes or for any other reasons.

However, upon the expiration of any right or warrant to purchase Common Stock the issuance of which resulted in an adjustment in the Conversion Rate pursuant to this subsection (2), if any such right or warrant shall expire and shall not have been exercised, the Conversion Rate shall immediately upon such expiration be recomputed and effective immediately upon such expiration be increased to the price which it would have been (but reflecting any other adjustments in the Conversion Rate made pursuant to the provisions of this Section 15.4 after the issuance of such rights or warrants) had the adjustment of the Conversion Rate made upon the issuance of such rights or warrants been made on the basis of offering for subscription or purchase only that number of shares of Common Stock actually purchased upon the exercise of such rights or warrants actually exercised. For the purposes of this ~~paragraph (2~~Section 1.10(g)(ii), the number of shares of Common Stock at any time outstanding shall not include shares held in ~~the~~ treasury of by the Company but ~~will~~ shall include any shares issuable in respect of any scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of shares of Common Stock.

(3iii) In case ~~at any time after the Closing Date,~~ outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be subdivided or split into a greater number of shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Rate in effect at the opening of business on the day following the day upon which such subdivision or split becomes effective shall be proportionately ~~increased~~ increased, and, conversely, in case ~~at any time after the date hereof,~~ outstanding shares of Common Stock shall each be combined into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Rate in effect at the opening of business on the day following the day upon which such combination becomes effective shall be proportionately reduced, such increase or reduction, as the case may be, to become effective immediately after the opening of business on the day following the day upon which such ~~subdivision~~ subdivision, split or combination becomes effective. (4iv) In case ~~at any time after the Closing Date,~~ the Company shall, by dividend or otherwise, distribute to all ~~holders~~ Holders of its Common Stock evidences of its ~~indebtedness or assets (including stock~~ indebtedness, shares of capital stock, securities, cash or other ~~securities of the Company or any other issuer,~~ property (but excluding any ~~rights~~ rights, options or warrants referred to in ~~paragraph (2~~Section 1.10(g)(ii) of this ~~Section 15.4~~Section, any dividend or distribution paid exclusively in cash and any dividend or distribution referred to in ~~paragraph (1) of this~~ Section ~~15.4~~1.10(g)(i)), the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted ~~so that the same shall equal the rate determined~~ by dividing the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the ~~current market price~~ Current Market Price per share ~~(determined as provided in paragraph (8) of this Section 15.4)~~ of the Common Stock on the date fixed for such determination less the then fair market value (~~each reference to "fair market value" in this Section 15.4 shall mean the fair market value~~ as determined by the Board of ~~Directors of the Company in good faith~~Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive and described in a Board Resolution~~, a copy of which shall be delivered to each holder of Debentures within ten (10~~) ~~days of the adoption of the resolution)~~ on such date of the portion of the ~~assets or~~ evidences of ~~indebtedness~~ indebtedness, shares of capital stock, securities, cash or other property so distributed applicable to one ~~(1)~~ share of Common Stock and the denominator shall be such ~~current market price~~ Current Market Price per share of the Common Stock, such adjustment to become effective immediately prior to the opening of business on the day following the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution; provided, however, that in the event that the Company makes a distribution to all Holders of its Common Stock consisting of capital stock of, or similar equity interests in, a subsidiary of the Company, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted by dividing the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the Spin-off Market Price per share of the Common Stock on the date fixed for such determination less the Spin-off Market Price per share or similar equity interest of the subsidiary of the Company on such date and the denominator shall be the Spin-off Market Price per share of the Common Stock, such adjustment to become effective 10 trading days after the effective date of such distribution of capital stock of, or similar equity interest in, a subsidiary or other business unit of the Company.

The Stock Prices set forth on the table set forth on Exhibit D hereto will be adjusted as of any date on which the Conversion Rate is adjusted. On such date, the Stock Prices shall be adjusted by multiplying: the Stock Prices applicable immediately prior to such ~~reclassification into~~ adjustment, by a fraction, of which (x) the ~~number~~ numerator is the Conversion Rate immediately prior to the adjustment giving rise to the Stock Price adjustment, and (y) the denominator of which is the Conversion Rate so adjusted. (viii) In the event of a Cash Take-Over Transaction which is also a Public Acquirer Change of Control, the Company may, in lieu of increasing the Conversion Rate by the Additional Shares pursuant to Section 1.10(g)(vii) above, elect to adjust the Conversion Rate such that from and after the Effective Date of such Public Acquirer Change of Control, Holders of the 2004 Senior Convertible Notes will be entitled to convert their Notes for an amount equal to the product of multiplying the Conversion Rate in effect immediately before the Public Acquirer Change of Control by a fraction: (1) the numerator of which will be (a) in the case of a share exchange, consolidation, merger, binding share exchange, or sale of all or substantially all of the assets pursuant to which the outstanding shares of Common Stock ~~outstanding immediately thereafter (and the effective date of such reclassification shall be deemed to be "the day upon which such subdivision becomes effective"~~ are converted into cash, securities or "the day upon which such combination becomes effective", as the case may be, and "the day upon which such subdivision or combination becomes effective" within the meaning of paragraph (3) of this Section 15.4).

Adjustments to Conversion Rate. The Conversion Rate of each series of Securities shall be ~~subject to adjustments~~ adjusted from time to time by the Company as follows: (1a) ~~In case~~ If the Company shall at any time ~~after~~ prior to the ~~Closing Date~~ Stated Maturity subdivide the ~~Company shall pay or make a dividend or other distribution on any class of Capital Stock of the Company (other than the Series C Preferred Stock) in~~ shares of ~~its~~ Common Stock, by split-up or otherwise, or combine the shares of Common Stock, or issue additional shares of Common Stock as a dividend, the Conversion Rate for each series of Securities shall be adjusted by multiplying the Conversion Rate in effect ~~at the opening of business on the day following the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled~~ immediately prior to ~~receive~~ such ~~dividend or other distribution shall be increased by dividing such Conversion Rate~~ event by a ~~fraction~~ fraction, the numerator of which ~~the numerator~~ shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding ~~at the close of business on the date fixed for~~ immediately after such ~~determination~~ event, and the denominator shall be the sum of such number of shares and the total number of shares constituting such dividend or other distribution, such increase to become effective immediately after the opening of business on the day following the date fixed for such determination. For the purposes of this paragraph (1), the number of shares of Common Stock at any time outstanding shall not include shares held in the treasury of the Company but shall include shares issuable in respect of scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of shares of Common Stock. The Company will not pay any dividend or make any distribution on shares of Common Stock held in the treasury of the Company. (2) In case at any time after the Closing Date, the Company shall issue rights or warrants to all holders of its Common Stock (not being available on an equivalent basis to holders of the Debentures upon conversion) entitling them to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at a price per share less than the current market price per share (determined as provided in paragraph (8) of this Section 15.4) of the Common Stock on the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants, the Conversion Rate in effect at the opening of business on the day following the date fixed for such determination shall be increased by dividing such Conversion Rate by a fraction of which ~~the numerator~~ shall be the number of shares of Common Stock ~~outstanding~~ immediately prior to such event. Any adjustment under this Section 12.2(a) shall become effective at the close of business on the date ~~fixed for such determination plus~~ the number of shares of Common Stock which the aggregate of the offering price of the total number of shares of Common Stock so offered for subscription or purchase would purchase at such current market price and the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at the close of business on the date fixed for such determination plus the number of shares of Common Stock so offered for subscription or purchase, such increase to become effective immediately after the opening of business on the day following the date fixed for such determination. However, upon the expiration of any right or warrant to purchase Common Stock the issuance of which resulted in an adjustment in the Conversion Rate pursuant to this subsection (2), if any such right or warrant shall expire and shall not have been exercised, the Conversion Rate shall immediately upon such expiration be recomputed and effective immediately upon such expiration be increased to the price which it would have been (but reflecting any other adjustments in the Conversion Rate made pursuant to the provisions of this Section 15.4 after the issuance of such rights or warrants) had the adjustment of the Conversion Rate made upon the issuance of such rights or warrants been made on the basis of offering for subscription or purchase only that number of shares of Common Stock actually purchased upon the exercise of such rights or warrants actually exercised. For the purposes of this paragraph (2), the number of shares of Common Stock at any time outstanding shall not include shares held in the treasury of the Company but will include shares issuable in respect of scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of shares of Common Stock. The Company will not issue any rights or warrants in respect of shares of Common Stock held in the treasury of the Company. (3) In case at any time after the Closing Date, outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be subdivided into a greater number of shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Rate in effect at the opening of business on the day following the day upon which such subdivision becomes effective shall be proportionately increased and, conversely, in case at any time after the date hereof, outstanding shares of Common Stock shall each be combined into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Rate in effect at the opening of business on the day following the day upon which such combination becomes effective shall be proportionately reduced, such increase or reduction, 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, or as of the Dividend Record Date of such dividend, or in the event that no record date is fixed, upon the making of such dividend.

(7) The reclassification of Common Stock into securities other than Common Stock (other than any reclassification upon a consolidation or merger to which Section 15.13 applies) shall be deemed to involve (a) a distribution of such securities other than Common Stock to all holders of Common Stock (and the effective date of such reclassification shall be deemed to be "the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution" and "the date fixed for such determination" within the meaning of paragraph (4) of this Section 15.4), and (b) a subdivision or combination, as the case may be, of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such reclassification into the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately thereafter (and the effective date of such reclassification shall be deemed to be "the day upon which such subdivision becomes effective" or "the day upon which such combination becomes effective", as the case may be, and "the day upon which such subdivision or combination becomes effective" within the meaning of paragraph (3) of this Section 15.4). (8) For the purpose of any computation under paragraph (2), (4), (5) or (6) of this Section 15.4, the current market price per share of Common Stock on any date shall be calculated by the Company and be deemed to be the average of the daily Closing Price per share of Common Stock for the five (5) consecutive Trading Days before, and ending not later than, the earlier of (i) the day in question and (ii) the day before the "ex" date with respect to the issuance or distribution requiring such computation. For purposes of this paragraph, the term "'ex' date", when used with respect to any issuance or distribution, means the first date on which the Common Stock trades regular way on the applicable securities exchange or in the applicable securities market without the right to receive such issuance or distribution. (9c) The Company may (but is not required to) make such increases in the Conversion Rate, ~~for the remaining term of the Debentures or any shorter term,~~ in addition to those required by ~~paragraphs (1), (2), (3), (4), (5~~Section 12.2(a) ~~and (6)~~ as the Board of ~~this Section 15.4, as it~~ Directors considers to be advisable ~~in order~~ to avoid or diminish any income tax to ~~any~~ holders ~~of shares~~ of Common Stock ~~resulting from any~~ or rights to purchase Common Stock in connection with a dividend or distribution of ~~stock~~ shares (or ~~issuance of~~ rights to acquire shares) or ~~warrants to purchase or subscribe for stock or from~~ any similar event treated as such for income tax ~~purposes or~~ purposes.

(d) Except as stated herein, the Company will not adjust the Conversion Rate for the issuance of shares of Common Stock or any securities convertible into or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock or the right to purchase shares of Common Stock or such convertible or exchangeable securities.

Adjustments to Conversion Rate. The Conversion Rate shall be ~~subject to adjustments~~ adjusted from time to time by the Company as follows: (1a) In case ~~at any time after the Closing Date~~ the Company shall (i) pay a dividend, or make a ~~dividend or other distribution on any class of Capital Stock of the Company (other than the Series C Preferred Stock)~~ distribution, in shares of ~~its~~ Common Stock or other capital stock, on Common Stock; (ii) subdivide its outstanding Common Stock into a greater number of shares; or (iii) combine its outstanding Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the Conversion Rate in effect at immediately prior thereto shall be adjusted so that the ~~opening~~ holder of ~~business on the day following the date fixed~~ any Note thereafter surrendered for ~~the determination of stockholders~~ conversion shall be entitled to receive ~~such dividend or other distribution shall be increased by dividing such Conversion Rate by a fraction of which the numerator shall be~~ the number of shares of Common Stock ~~outstanding at~~ which such holder would have owned or have been entitled to receive after the ~~close~~ happening of ~~business on~~ any of the ~~date fixed for~~ events described above had such ~~determination and~~ Note been converted immediately prior to the ~~denominator shall be the sum~~ happening of such ~~number~~ event. If any dividend or distribution of ~~shares and~~ the ~~total number of shares constituting~~ type described in clause (i) above is not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall again be adjusted to the Conversion Rate which would then be in effect if such dividend or ~~other distribution, such increase~~ distribution had not been declared. An adjustment made pursuant to this Section 4.06 shall become effective immediately after the ~~opening of business on the day following the date fixed for such determination. For the purposes of this paragraph (1), the number of shares of~~ Common Stock ~~at any time outstanding shall not include shares held~~ Record Date in the ~~treasury~~ case of a dividend and shall become effective immediately after the Company but shall include shares issuable in respect of scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of shares of Common Stock. The Company will not pay any dividend or make any distribution on shares of Common Stock held effective date in the ~~treasury~~ case of ~~the Company~~subdivision or combination. (2b) In case ~~at any time after the Closing Date,~~ the Company shall issue rights or warrants to all holders of any class or series of its Common Stock ~~(not being available on an equivalent basis to holders of the Debentures upon conversion)~~ entitling them (for a period expiring within 60 days after the date fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants) to subscribe for or purchase ~~shares of~~ Common Stock at a price per share less than the ~~current market price~~ Sale Price per share ~~(determined as provided in paragraph (8)~~ of ~~this Section 15.4)~~ Common Stock on the day preceding the date of announcement of the Common Stock ~~on the date fixed~~ Record Date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants, the Conversion Rate in effect at immediately prior thereto shall be adjusted so that the ~~opening of business on~~ same shall equal the ~~day following~~ Conversion Rate determined by multiplying the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the date ~~fixed for~~ of the issuance of such ~~determination shall be increased by dividing such Conversion Rate~~ rights or warrants by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding ~~at the close of business~~ on the date ~~fixed for~~ of issuance of such ~~determination~~ rights or warrants plus the number of additional shares of Common Stock ~~which the aggregate of the offering price of the total number of shares of Common Stock so~~ offered for subscription or ~~purchase would purchase at such current market price~~ purchase, and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding ~~at the close of business~~ on the date ~~fixed for~~ of issuance of such ~~determination~~ rights or warrants plus the number of shares which the aggregate offering price of ~~Common Stock~~ the total number of shares so offered ~~for subscription~~ would purchase at such Sale Price. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever any such rights or ~~purchase~~warrants are issued, ~~such increase to~~ and shall become effective immediately after the opening of business on the day following the ~~date fixed~~ Common Stock Record Date for the determination of the stockholders entitled to receive such ~~determination~~rights or warrants. ~~However, upon~~ To the extent that shares of Common Stock are not delivered after the expiration of ~~any right~~ such rights or warrant to purchase Common Stock the issuance of which resulted in an adjustment in the Conversion Rate pursuant to this subsection (2), if any such right or warrant shall expire and shall not have been exercisedwarrants, the Conversion Rate shall ~~immediately upon such expiration~~ be ~~recomputed and effective immediately upon such expiration be increased~~ readjusted to ~~the price which it would have been (but reflecting any other adjustments in~~ the Conversion Rate ~~made pursuant to the provisions of this Section 15.4 after the issuance of such rights or warrants)~~ which would then be in effect had the ~~adjustment of the Conversion Rate~~ adjustments made upon the issuance of such rights or warrants been made on the basis of ~~offering for subscription or purchase~~ delivery of only ~~that~~ the number of shares of Common Stock actually ~~purchased upon the exercise of~~ delivered. If such rights or warrants ~~actually exercised. For the purposes of this paragraph (2)~~are not so issued, the ~~number~~ Conversion Rate shall again be adjusted to be the Conversion Rate which would then be in effect if such Common Stock Record Date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants had not been fixed. In determining whether any rights or warrants entitle the holders to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at ~~any time outstanding shall not include shares held~~ less than such Sale Price, and in determining the ~~treasury~~ aggregate offering price of the Company but will include shares issuable in respect of scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of shares of Common Stock. The Company will not issue any rights or warrants in respect of shares of Common Stock held in the treasury of the Company. (3) In case at any time after the Closing Date, outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be subdivided into a greater number of such shares of Common Stock, ~~the Conversion Rate in effect at the opening of business on the day following the day upon which such subdivision becomes effective~~ there shall be ~~proportionately increased and, conversely, in case at~~ taken into account any ~~time after~~ consideration received by the ~~date hereof, outstanding shares of Common Stock shall each be combined into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock~~Company for such rights or warrants, the ~~Conversion Rate in effect at the opening~~ value of ~~business on the day following the day upon which~~ such ~~combination becomes effective shall be proportionately reduced~~consideration, ~~such increase or reduction, as the case may be~~if other than cash, to ~~become effective immediately after~~ be determined by the ~~opening~~ Board of ~~business on the day following the day upon which such subdivision or combination becomes effective~~Directors. (4c) In case ~~at any time after the Closing Date,~~ the Company shall, by dividend or otherwise, distribute to all holders of its Common Stock (excluding any distribution in connection with the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary) any evidences of its indebtedness or assets (~~including stock~~ other than Cash dividends or other ~~securities of~~ Cash distributions from the ~~Company~~ Company's current or ~~any other issuer, but excluding any~~ retained earnings) or rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any of its securities (excluding those referred to in ~~paragraph~~ Section 4.06(b)) (2) any of the foregoing hereinafter in this Section ~~15.4~~4.06(c) called the "Distributed Securities"), ~~any dividend or distribution paid exclusively in cash and any dividend or distribution referred to in paragraph (1) of this Section 15.4)~~then, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted so that the same shall equal the ~~rate~~ Conversion Rate determined by ~~dividing~~ multiplying the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the ~~close~~ date of ~~business on the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive~~ such distribution by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the ~~current market price~~ Market Price per share ~~(determined as provided in paragraph (8) of this Section 15.4)~~ of the Common Stock on the ~~date fixed for~~ Common Stock Record Date mentioned below, and the denominator shall be the Sale Price per share of the Common Stock on such ~~determination~~ Common Stock Record Date less ~~the then fair market value (each reference to "fair market value" in this Section 15.4 shall mean~~ the fair market value on such Common Stock Record Date (as determined by the Board of ~~Directors of the Company in good faith~~Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive, and described in a ~~Board Resolution, a copy of which shall be delivered to each holder of Debentures within ten (10) days of~~ certificate filed with the ~~adoption of the resolution~~Trustee) of the ~~portion of the assets or evidences of indebtedness~~ Distributed Securities so distributed applicable to one ~~(1)~~ share of Common ~~Stock and the denominator~~ Stock. Such adjustment shall ~~be such current market price per share of the Common Stock, such adjustment to~~ become effective immediately ~~prior to~~ after the ~~opening of business on the day following the date fixed~~ Common Stock Record Date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event (a) the then fair market value (as so determined) of the portion of the Distributed Securities so distributed applicable to one share of Common Stock is equal to or greater than the Market Price of the Common Stock on the Common Stock Record Date or (b) such Market Price exceeds the fair market value of such Distributed Securities by less than $1.00, 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 Distributed Securities such Holder would have received had such Holder converted each Note on such Common Stock Record Date. In the event that such distribution is not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall again be adjusted to the Conversion Rate which would then be in effect if such distribution had not been declared. If the Board of Directors determines the fair market value of any distribution for purposes of this Section 4.06(c) by reference to the actual or when issued trading market for any securities, it must in doing so consider the prices in such market on the same day used in computing the Sale Price of the Common Stock. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.06(c), no adjustment shall be made thereunder for any distribution of Distributed Securities if the Company makes proper provision so that each Holder of a Note who converts such Note (or any portion thereof) after the Common Stock Record Date for such distribution shall be entitled to receive upon such conversion, in addition to the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion, the amount and kind of Distributed Securities that such Holder would have been entitled to receive if such Holder had, immediately prior to such Common Stock Record Date, converted such Note for Common Stock; provided that, with respect to any Distributed Securities that are convertible, exchangeable or exercisable, the foregoing provision shall only apply to the extent (and so long as) the Distributed Securities receivable upon conversion of such Note would be convertible, exchangeable or exercisable, as applicable, without any loss of rights or privileges for a period of at least 60 days following conversion of such Note. (5d) In case ~~at any time after the Closing Date (A)~~ the Company shall, by dividend or otherwise, distribute to all holders of any class of its Common Stock ~~cash~~ Cash (excluding any ~~cash~~ Cash that is distributed upon a merger or consolidation to which Section ~~15.13 applies or as part of a distribution referred to~~ 4.07(f) applies) in ~~paragraph (4) of this Section 15.4) and (B)(I) the total of (x) the~~ an aggregate amount ~~of such cash distribution~~that, combined together with (yi) the aggregate amount of any other such distributions to all holders of any class of its Common Stock made exclusively in ~~cash~~ Cash within the ~~twelve (12)~~ 12 months preceding the date of payment of such ~~distribution~~ distribution, and in respect of which no adjustment pursuant to this ~~paragraph (5~~Section 4.06(d) ~~or paragraph (6) of this Section 15.4~~ has been ~~made~~ made, and (zii) the aggregate of any ~~cash~~ Cash plus the fair market value of other consideration (as so determined by the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive, and described in a certificate filed with the Trustee) payable in respect of any tender ~~offers~~ offer by the Company ~~or any of its Subsidiaries~~ for all or any portion of ~~the~~ any class of its Common Stock concluded within the ~~twelve (12)~~ 12 months preceding the date of payment of such ~~distribution~~ distribution, and in respect of which no adjustment pursuant to ~~this paragraph (5~~Section 4.06(e) ~~or paragraph (6) of this Section 15.4~~ has been made, exceeds ~~(II) ten percent (~~10%) % of the product of the ~~current market price per share (determined as provided in paragraph (8) of this Section 15.4) of the Common Stock~~ Sale Price on the day preceding the date ~~for the determination~~ of ~~holders~~ declaration of ~~shares of Common Stock entitled to receive~~ such dividend or distribution times the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such date, then, and in each such case, immediately after the close of business on such ~~date for determination~~date, the Conversion Rate shall be increased so that the same shall equal the ~~rate~~ Conversion Rate determined by ~~dividing~~ multiplying the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the ~~close~~ Common Stock Record Date by a fraction of which the numerator shall be such Sale Price of the Common Stock and the denominator shall be such Sale Price of the Common Stock less the amount of Cash and the fair market value (as so determined) of such other consideration so distributed (and not excluded as provided above) applicable to one share of Common Stock, such increase to be effective immediately prior to the opening of business on the ~~date fixed~~ day following the Common Stock Record Date; provided, however, that no adjustment will be made in respect of any such dividends and distributions that are paid during any period for ~~determination~~ which the Company is paying contingent interest to Holders; provided, further, that, if the portion of the ~~stockholders entitled~~ cash so distributed applicable to ~~receive such distribution by a fraction~~ one share of Common Stock is (i) equal to or greater than the ~~numerator~~ Market Price of ~~which~~ the Common Stock on the day preceding the date of declaration of such dividend or distribution or (ii) the Market Price of the Common Stock on the day preceding the date of declaration of such dividend or distribution is greater than the fair market value of the consideration distributed pursuant to Section 4.06(e) by less than $1.00, then, in lieu of the foregoing adjustment, adequate provision shall be ~~equal~~ made so that each Holder shall have the right to ~~such current market price per share on the date fixed for such determination less an amount equal~~ receive upon conversion, in addition to the quotient of (X) the sum of (I) the total of the amounts referred to in subclauses (B)(I)(x) and (y) of this paragraph (5) and (II) the aggregate of the excess of the amount referred to in subclause (B)(I)(z) of this paragraph (5) for each tender offer so referred to over the aggregate current market price of the shares of Common Stock, Cash and other consideration the Holder would have received had such Holder converted such Note immediately prior to such Common Stock ~~purchased~~ Record Date. If such dividend or distribution is not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall again be adjusted to be the Conversion Rate which would then be in effect if such ~~tender offer~~ dividend or distribution had not been declared. If any adjustment is required to be made as set forth in this Section 4.06(d) as a result of a distribution that is a quarterly dividend, such adjustment shall be based upon the amount by which such distribution exceeds the amount of the ~~Expiration Time (~~quarterly cash dividend permitted to be excluded pursuant hereto. If an adjustment is required to be made as ~~hereinafter defined~~set forth in this Section 4.06(d) ~~for~~ above as a result of a distribution that is not a quarterly dividend, such ~~tender offer divided by (Y) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such date for determination and (ii) the denominator of which~~ adjustment shall be ~~equal to such current market price per share on such date for determination~~based upon the full amount of the distribution.

(7) The reclassification of Common Stock into securities other than Common Stock (other than any reclassification upon a consolidation or merger to which Section 15.13 applies) shall be deemed to involve (a) a distribution of such securities other than Common Stock to all holders of Common Stock (and the effective date of such reclassification shall be deemed to be "the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution" and "the date fixed for such determination" within the meaning of paragraph (4) of this Section 15.4), and (b) a subdivision or combination, as the case may be, of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such reclassification into the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately thereafter (and the effective date of such reclassification shall be deemed to be "the day upon which such subdivision becomes effective" or "the day upon which such combination becomes effective", as the case may be, and "the day upon which such subdivision or combination becomes effective" within the meaning of paragraph (3) of this Section 15.4). (8) For the purpose of any computation under paragraph (2), (4), (5) or (6) of this Section 15.4, the current market price per share of Common Stock on any date shall be calculated by the Company and be deemed to be the average of the daily Closing Price per share of Common Stock for the five (5) consecutive Trading Days before, and ending not later than, the earlier of (i) the day in question and (ii) the day before the "ex" date with respect to the issuance or distribution requiring such computation. For purposes of this paragraph, the term "'ex' date", when used with respect to any issuance or distribution, means the first date on which the Common Stock trades regular way on the applicable securities exchange or in the applicable securities market without the right to receive such issuance or distribution. (9) The Company may make such increases in the Conversion Rate, for the remaining term of the Debentures or any shorter term, in addition to those required by paragraphs (1), (2), (3), (4), (5) and (6) of this Section 15.4, as it considers to be advisable in order to avoid or diminish any income tax to any holders of shares of Common Stock resulting from any dividend or distribution of stock or issuance of rights or warrants to purchase or subscribe for stock or from any event treated as such for income tax purposes or for any other reasons.4.06

(2b) In case ~~at any time after the Closing Date,~~ the Company shall issue rights or warrants to all holders of any class or series of its ~~Common~~ Voting Stock ~~(not being available on an equivalent basis to holders of the Debentures upon conversion)~~ entitling them (for a period expiring within 60 days after the date fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants) to subscribe for or purchase ~~shares of Common~~ Voting Stock at a price per share less than the ~~current market price~~ Sale Price per share ~~(determined as provided in paragraph (8)~~ of ~~this Section 15.4) of the~~ Common Stock on at the ~~date fixed~~ Record Date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants, the Conversion Rate in effect at immediately prior thereto shall be adjusted so that the ~~opening of business on~~ same shall equal the ~~day following~~ Conversion Rate determined by multiplying the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the date ~~fixed for~~ of the issuance of such ~~determination shall be increased by dividing such Conversion Rate~~ rights or warrants by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of ~~Common~~ Voting Stock outstanding ~~at the close of business~~ on the date ~~fixed for~~ of issuance of such ~~determination~~ rights or warrants plus the number of additional shares of ~~Common~~ Voting Stock ~~which the aggregate of the offering price of the total number of shares of Common Stock so~~ offered for subscription or ~~purchase would purchase at such current market price~~ purchase, and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of ~~Common~~ Voting Stock outstanding ~~at the close of business~~ on the date ~~fixed for~~ of issuance of such ~~determination~~ rights or warrants plus the number of shares which the aggregate offering price of ~~Common Stock~~ the total number of shares so offered ~~for subscription~~ would purchase at such Sale Price. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever any such rights or ~~purchase~~warrants are issued, ~~such increase to~~ and shall become effective immediately after the opening of business on the day following the ~~date fixed~~ Record Date for the determination of the stockholders entitled to receive such ~~determination~~rights or warrants. ~~However, upon~~ To the extent that shares of Voting Stock are not delivered after the expiration of ~~any right~~ such rights or warrant to purchase Common Stock the issuance of which resulted in an adjustment in the Conversion Rate pursuant to this subsection (2), if any such right or warrant shall expire and shall not have been exercisedwarrants, the Conversion Rate shall ~~immediately upon such expiration~~ be ~~recomputed and effective immediately upon such expiration be increased~~ readjusted to ~~the price which it would have been (but reflecting any other adjustments in~~ the Conversion Rate ~~made pursuant to the provisions of this Section 15.4 after the issuance of such rights or warrants)~~ which would then be in effect had the ~~adjustment of the Conversion Rate~~ adjustments made upon the issuance of such rights or warrants been made on the basis of ~~offering for subscription or purchase~~ delivery of only ~~that number of shares of Common Stock actually purchased upon the exercise of such rights or warrants actually exercised. For the purposes of this paragraph (2),~~ the number of shares of ~~Common~~ Voting Stock ~~at any time outstanding~~ actually delivered. If such rights or warrants are not so issued, the Conversion Rate shall again be adjusted to be the Conversion Rate which would then be in effect if such Record Date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants had not ~~include shares held in the treasury of the Company but will include shares issuable in respect of scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of shares of Common Stock~~been fixed. ~~The Company will not issue~~ In determining whether any rights or warrants ~~in respect of~~ entitle the holders to subscribe for or purchase shares of ~~Common~~ Voting Stock ~~held~~ at less than such Sale Price, and in determining the ~~treasury~~ aggregate offering price of such shares of Voting Stock, there shall be taken into account any consideration received by the ~~Company~~Company for such rights or warrants, the value of such consideration, if other than cash, to be determined by the Board of Directors. (3c) In case at any time after the Closing Date, outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be subdivided into a greater number of shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Rate in effect at the opening of business on the day following the day upon which such subdivision becomes effective shall be proportionately increased and, conversely, in case at any time after the date hereof, outstanding shares of Common Stock shall each be combined into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Rate in effect at the opening of business on the day following the day upon which such combination becomes effective shall be proportionately reduced, such increase or reduction, 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. (4) In case at any time after the Closing Date, the Company shall, by dividend or otherwise, distribute to all holders of its ~~Common~~ Voting Stock (excluding any distribution in connection with the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary) any shares of any class of capital stock of the Company (other than Voting Stock) or evidences of its indebtedness or assets (~~including stock~~ other than Cash) or ~~other securities of the Company or any other issuer, but excluding any~~ rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any of its Notes (excluding those referred to in ~~paragraph~~ Section 4.06(b) hereof) (2) any of the foregoing hereinafter in this Section ~~15.4~~4.06(c) called the "Distributed Securities"), ~~any dividend or distribution paid exclusively in cash and any dividend or distribution referred to in paragraph (1) of this Section 15.4)~~then, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted so ----------------------- that the same shall equal the ~~rate~~ Conversion Rate determined by ~~dividing~~ multiplying the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the ~~close~~ date of ~~business on the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive~~ such distribution by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the ~~current market price~~ Market Price per share ~~(determined as provided in paragraph (8) of this Section 15.4)~~ of the Common Stock on the ~~date fixed for~~ Record Date mentioned below, and the denominator shall be the Market Price per share of the Common Stock on such ~~determination~~ Record Date less ~~the then fair market value (each reference to "fair market value" in this Section 15.4 shall mean~~ the fair market value on such Record Date (as determined by the Board of ~~Directors of the Company in good faith~~Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive, and described in a ~~Board Resolution, a copy of which shall be delivered to each holder of Debentures within ten (10) days of~~ certificate filed with the ~~adoption of the resolution~~Trustee) of the ~~portion of the assets or evidences of indebtedness~~ Distributed Securities so distributed applicable to one ~~(1)~~ share of ~~Common Stock and the denominator~~ Voting Stock. Such adjustment shall ~~be such current market price per share of the Common Stock, such adjustment to~~ become effective immediately ~~prior to~~ after the ~~opening of business on the day following the date fixed~~ Record Date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the then fair market value (as so determined) of the portion of the Distributed Securities so distributed applicable to one share of Voting Stock is equal to or greater than the Market Price of the Common Stock on the 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 Distributed Securities such Holder would have received had such Holder converted each Note on such Record Date. In the event that such distribution is not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall again be adjusted to the Conversion Rate which would then be in effect if such distribution had not been declared. If the Board of Directors determines the fair market value of any distribution for purposes of this Section 4.06(c) by reference to the actual or when issued trading market for any Notes, it must in doing so consider the prices in such market over the same period used in computing the Market Price of the Common Stock. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.06(c), no adjustment shall be made thereunder for any distribution of Distributed Securities if the Company makes proper provision so that each Holder of a Note who converts such Note (or any portion thereof) after the Record Date for such distribution shall be entitled to receive upon such conversion, in addition to the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion, the amount and kind of Distributed Securities that such Holder would have been entitled to receive if such Holder had, immediately prior to such Record Date, converted such Note for Common Stock; provided that, with respect to any Distributed Securities that are convertible, exchangeable or exercisable, the foregoing provision shall only apply to the extent (and so long as) the Distributed Securities receivable upon conversion of such Note would be convertible, exchangeable or exercisable, as applicable, without any loss of rights or privileges for a period of at least 60 days following conversion of such Note. Upon conversion of the Notes the Holders shall receive, in addition to the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion, the rights issued under the Company's existing stockholder rights plan and any future stockholder rights plan the Company implements (notwithstanding the occurrence of an event causing such rights to separate from the Common Stock at or prior to the time of conversion). (5d) In case ~~at any time after the Closing Date (A)~~ the Company shall, by dividend or otherwise, distribute to all holders of any class of its ~~Common~~ Voting Stock cash (excluding any cash that is distributed upon a merger or consolidation to which Section ~~15.13~~ 4.07(f) applies or as part of a distribution referred to in ~~paragraph (4~~Section 4.06(c)) ~~of this Section 15.4) and (B)(I) the total of (x) the~~ in an aggregate amount ~~of such cash distribution~~that, combined together with (yi) the aggregate amount of any other such distributions to all holders of any class of its ~~Common~~ Voting Stock made exclusively in cash within the ~~twelve (12)~~ 12 months preceding the date of payment of such ~~distribution~~ distribution, and in respect of which no adjustment pursuant to this ~~paragraph (5~~Section 4.06(d) ~~or paragraph (6) of this Section 15.4~~ has been ~~made~~ made, and (zii) the aggregate of any cash plus the fair market value of ~~other~~ consideration payable in respect of any tender ~~offers~~ offer by the Company ~~or any of its Subsidiaries~~ for all or any portion of ~~the Common~~ any class of its Voting Stock concluded within the ~~twelve (12)~~ 12 months preceding the date of payment of such ~~distribution~~ distribution, and in respect of which no adjustment pursuant to ~~this paragraph (5~~Section 4.06(c) ~~or paragraph (6) of this Section 15.4~~ has been made, exceeds ~~(II) ten percent (~~10%) % of the product of the ~~current market price per share~~ Market Price (determined as provided ~~in paragraph (8) of this Section 15.4~~herein) ~~of the Common Stock~~ on the ~~date for the determination of holders of shares of Common Stock entitled~~ Record Date with respect to ~~receive~~ such distribution times the number of shares of ~~Common~~ Voting Stock outstanding on such date, then, and in each such case, immediately after the close of business on such ~~date for determination~~date, the Conversion Rate shall be increased so that the same shall equal the ~~rate~~ Conversion Rate determined by ~~dividing~~ multiplying the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the ~~close~~ record date by a fraction of which the numerator shall be such Market Price of the Common Stock and the denominator shall be the Market Price of the Common Stock on the record date less the amount of cash so distributed (and not excluded as provided above) applicable to one share of Voting Stock, such increase to be effective immediately prior to the opening of business on the day following the record date fixed for determination of the stockholders entitled to receive such distribution by a fraction (i) the numerator of which shall be equal to such current market price per share on the date fixed for such determination less an amount equal to the quotient of (X) the sum of (I) the total of the amounts referred to in subclauses (B)(I)(x) and (y) of this paragraph (5) and (II) the aggregate of the excess of the amount referred to in subclause (B)(I)(z) of this paragraph (5) for each tender offer so referred to over the aggregate current market price of the shares of Common Stock purchased in such tender offer as of the Expiration Time (as hereinafter defined) for such tender offer divided by (Y) the number of shares of ~~Common~~ Voting Stock outstanding on the Record Date; provided, however, that no adjustment will -------- ------- be made in respect of any such ~~date for determination~~ dividends and distributions that result in the payment of any contingent interest to the Holders; provided, further, -------- ------- that, if the portion of the cash so distributed applicable to one share of Voting Stock is (i) equal to or greater than the Market Price of the Common Stock on the Record Date or (ii) the ~~denominator~~ Market Price of ~~which~~ the Common Stock on the Record Date is greater than the fair market value of the evidences of indebtedness, assets, rights and warrants distributed pursuant to Section 4.06(c) by less than $1.00, then, in lieu of the foregoing adjustment, adequate provision shall be ~~equal~~ made so that each Holder shall have the right to receive upon conversion, in addition to the shares of Common Stock, the kind and amount of assets, debt securities, or rights warrants or options the Holder would have received had such Holder converted such Note immediately prior to such ~~current market price per share on~~ Record Date. If such ~~date for determination~~dividend or distribution is not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall again be adjusted to be the Conversion Rate which would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared. If any adjustment is required to be made as set forth in this Section 4.06(d) as a result of a distribution that is a quarterly dividend, such adjustment shall be based upon the amount by which such distribution exceeds the amount of the quarterly cash dividend permitted to be excluded pursuant hereto. If an adjustment is required to be made as set forth in this Section 4.06(d) above as a result of a distribution that is not a quarterly dividend, such adjustment shall be based upon the full amount of the distribution. (6e) In case ~~at any time after the Closing Date (A)~~ a tender offer made by the Company or any ~~Subsidiary~~ of its subsidiaries for all or any portion of ~~the Common~~ any class of its Voting Stock ~~shall expire~~ expires and ~~(B)(I) the total of (x) the fair market value of the aggregate consideration required to be paid pursuant to~~ such tender offer (as amended upon the expiration thereof) requires the payment to stockholders (based on the acceptance (up to any maximum specified in the terms of the tender offer) of Purchased ~~Shares~~ Shares) of an aggregate consideration having a fair market value (as ~~defined below))~~determined by the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive and described in a resolution of the Board of Directors) that, combined together with (ya) the aggregate of the cash plus the fair market ~~value~~value (as determined by the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive and described in a resolution of the Board of Directors), as of the expiration of such tender offer, of consideration payable in respect of any other tender ~~offer~~offers, by the Company or any ~~Subsidiary~~ of its subsidiaries for all or any portion of ~~the Common~~ any class of its Voting Stock expiring within the ~~twelve (12)~~ 12 months preceding the expiration of such tender offer and in respect of which no adjustment pursuant to this ~~paragraph (6~~Section 4.06(e) ~~or paragraph (5) of this Section 15.4~~ has been ~~made~~ made, and (zb) the aggregate amount of any distributions to all holders of the ~~Company's Common~~ Voting Stock made exclusively in cash within ~~twelve (12)~~ 12 months preceding the expiration of such tender offer and in respect of which no adjustment pursuant to ~~this paragraph (6~~Section 4.06(d) ~~or paragraph (5) of this Section 15.4~~ has been made, exceeds ~~(II) ten percent (~~10%) % of the product of the ~~current market price per share of the Common Stock~~ Market Price (determined as provided ~~in paragraph (8) of this Section 15.4~~herein) ~~on the date~~ as of the last time (the "Expiration Time") tenders could have been made pursuant to such --------------- tender offer (as it may be amended) times the number of shares of ~~Common~~ Voting Stock outstanding (including any tendered shares) on at the Expiration Time, then, and in each such case, immediately prior to the opening of business on the day after the date of the Expiration Time, the Conversion Rate shall be ~~adjusted~~ increased so that the same shall equal the ~~price~~ Conversion Rate determined by ~~dividing~~ multiplying the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to ~~the close of business on the date of~~ the Expiration Time by a fraction ~~(i)~~ of which the numerator ~~of which~~ shall be ~~equal to (a) the product of (I) such current market price per share on the date of the Expiration Time and (II)~~ the number of shares of ~~Common~~ Voting Stock outstanding (including any tendered or exchanged shares) ~~as of~~ on the Expiration Time ~~less (b)~~ multiplied by the ~~total~~ Market Price of the ~~amounts referred to in Clause (B)(I) of this paragraph (6), and (ii) the denominator of which shall be equal to the product of (a) such current market price per share~~ Common Stock on the ~~date of~~ Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Time and the denominator shall be the sum of (bx) the ~~number of shares of Common Stock outstanding~~ fair market value (~~including any tendered shares~~determined as aforesaid) as of the ~~Expiration Time less~~ aggregate consideration payable to stockholders based on the ~~number~~ acceptance (up to an maximum specified in the terms of the tender or exchanged offer) of all shares validly tendered or exchanged and not withdrawn as of the Expiration Time (the shares deemed so ~~accepted~~ accepted, up to any such maximum, being referred to as the "Purchased Shares"~~). (7~~) The reclassification of Common Stock into securities other than Common Stock (other than any reclassification upon a consolidation or merger to which Section 15.13 applies) shall be deemed to involve (a) a distribution of such securities other than Common Stock to all holders of Common Stock (and the effective date of such reclassification shall be deemed to be "the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution" and "the date fixed for such determination" within the meaning of paragraph (4) of this Section 15.4), and (by) ~~a subdivision or combination, as~~ the ~~case may be,~~ ---------------- product of the number of shares of Voting Stock outstanding (less any Purchased Shares) on the Expiration Time and the Market Price of the Common Stock ~~outstanding~~ on the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Time such reduction (if any) to become effective immediately prior to the opening of business on the day following the Expiration Time. If the Company is obligated to purchase shares pursuant to any such ~~reclassification into~~ tender offer, but the Company is permanently prevented by applicable law from effecting any such purchases or all such purchases are rescinded, the Conversion Rate shall again be adjusted to be the Conversion Rate which would then be in effect if such tender offer had not been made. (f) For purposes of this Section 4.06, the number of shares of ~~Common~~ Voting Stock at any time outstanding ~~immediately thereafter (and~~ shall not include shares held in the ~~effective date~~ treasury of such reclassification shall be deemed to be "the day upon which such subdivision becomes effective" or "the day upon which such combination becomes effective", as the case may be, and "the day upon which such subdivision or combination becomes effective" within the meaning of paragraph (3) of this Section 15.4). (8) For the purpose of any computation under paragraph (2), (4), (5) or (6) of this Section 15.4, the current market price per share of Common Stock on any date shall be calculated by the Company ~~and be deemed to be the average~~ but shall include shares issuable in respect of ~~the daily Closing Price per share~~ scrip certificates issued in lieu of Common Stock for the five (5) consecutive Trading Days before, and ending not later than, the earlier of (i) the day in question and (ii) the day before the "ex" date with respect to the issuance or distribution requiring such computation. For purposes of this paragraph, the term "'ex' date", when used with respect to any issuance or distribution, means the first date on which the Common Stock trades regular way on the applicable securities exchange or in the applicable securities market without the right to receive such issuance or distribution. (9) The Company may make such increases in the Conversion Rate, for the remaining term of the Debentures or any shorter term, in addition to those required by paragraphs (1), (2), (3), (4), (5) and (6) of this Section 15.4, as it considers to be advisable in order to avoid or diminish any income tax to any holders frac- tions of shares of ~~Common Stock resulting from~~ Voting Stock. The Company shall not pay any dividend or make any distribution on shares of ~~stock or issuance~~ Voting Stock held in the treasury of ~~rights or warrants to purchase or subscribe for stock or from any event treated as such for income tax purposes or for any other reasons~~the Company.

Adjustments to Conversion Rate. The Conversion Rate shall be ~~subject to adjustments~~ adjusted from time to time by the Company as follows: (1) In case ~~at any time after the Closing Date~~ the Company shall (a) pay a dividend, or make a ~~dividend or other distribution on any class of Capital Stock of the Company (other than the Series C Preferred Stock)~~ distribution, in shares of its capital stock, on its Common Stock; (b) subdivide its outstanding Common Stock into a greater number of shares; (c) combine its outstanding Common Stock into a smaller number of shares; or (d) reclassify its Common Stock, the Conversion Rate in effect at immediately prior thereto shall be adjusted so that the ~~opening~~ holder of ~~business on~~ any Notes thereafter surrendered for conversion shall be entitled to receive the ~~day following~~ 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 Notes been converted immediately prior to the happening of such event. If any dividend or distribution of the type described in clause (a) above is not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall again be adjusted to the Conversion Rate which would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared. An adjustment made pursuant to this Section 2.07(1) shall become effective immediately after the applicable Record Date in the case of a dividend and shall become effective immediately after the applicable effective date in the case of subdivision, combination or reclassification of the Company's Common Stock. (2) In case the Company shall issue rights or warrants to all holders of its Common Stock entitling them (for a period expiring within 60 days after the date fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants) to subscribe for or purchase Common Stock at a price per share less than the Sale Price per share of Common Stock at the Record Date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such ~~dividend~~ rights or ~~other distribution~~ warrants, the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior thereto shall be ~~increased by dividing such~~ adjusted so that the same shall equal the Conversion Rate determined by multiplying the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the date of the issuance of such rights or warrants by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding ~~at the close of business~~ on the date ~~fixed~~ of issuance of such rights or warrants plus the number of additional shares of Common Stock offered for ~~such determination~~ subscription or purchase, and of which the denominator shall be the ~~sum of such~~ number of shares ~~and~~ of 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 ~~constituting~~ so offered would purchase at such ~~dividend~~ Sale Price. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever any such rights or ~~other distribution~~warrants are issued, ~~such increase to~~ and shall become effective immediately after the opening of business on the day following the ~~date fixed~~ Record Date for the determination of the stockholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants. To the extent that shares of Common Stock are not delivered after the expiration of such rights or warrants, the Conversion Rate shall be readjusted to the Conversion Rate which would then be in effect had the adjustments made upon the issuance of such rights or warrants been made on the basis of delivery of only the number of shares of Common Stock actually delivered. If such rights or warrants are not so issued, the Conversion Rate shall again be adjusted to be the Conversion Rate which would then be in effect if such Record Date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants had not been fixed. In determining whether any rights or warrants entitle the holders to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at less than such Sale Price, and in determining the aggregate offering price of such shares of Common Stock, there shall be taken into account any consideration received by the Company for such ~~determination~~rights or warrants, the value of such consideration, if other than cash, to be determined by the Board of Directors. (3) In case the Company shall, by dividend or otherwise, distribute to all holders of its Common Stock (excluding any distribution in connection with the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary) any evidences of its indebtedness or assets or rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any of its securities (excluding those referred to in Section 2.07(2) hereof) (any of the foregoing hereinafter in this Section 2.07(3) called the "Distributed Assets or Securities") in an aggregate amount that, combined together with the aggregate amount of any other such distributions to all holders of its Common Stock made within the 12 months preceding the date of payment of such distribution, and in respect of which no adjustment pursuant to this Section 2.07(3) has been made, exceeds 15% of the product of the Market Price on the day preceding the declaration of such distribution times the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such date, then, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted so that the same shall equal the Conversion Rate determined by multiplying the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the date of such distribution by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the Market Price per share of the Common Stock on the Record Date mentioned below, and the denominator shall be the 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, and described in a certificate filed with the Trustee and the Paying Agent) of the Distributed Assets or Securities so distributed applicable to one share of Common Stock. Such adjustment shall become effective immediately after the Record Date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution; provided, however, that no adjustment will be made in respect of any such dividends and distributions that result in the payment of any contingent interest to the Holders; provided, further, that, if the portion of the Distributed Assets or Securities so distributed applicable to one share of Common Stock is (a) equal to or greater than the Sale Price of the Common Stock on the Record Date or (b) the Sale Price of the Common Stock on the Record Date is greater than the fair market value of the Distributed Assets or Securities by less than $1.00, 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 shares of Common Stock, the kind and amount of assets, debt securities, or rights warrants or options the Holder would have received had such Holder converted such Notes immediately prior to such Record Date. In the event that such distribution is not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall again be adjusted to the Conversion Rate which would then be in effect if such distribution had not been declared. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of Section 2.07(2) or (3), no adjustment shall be made thereunder for any distribution described therein if the Company makes proper provision so that each Holder of Notes who converts such Notes (or any portion thereof) after the Record Date for such distribution shall be entitled to receive upon such conversion, in addition to the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion, the amount and kind of assets or Securities that such Holder would have been entitled to receive if such Holder had, immediately prior to such Record Date, converted such Notes for Common Stock; provided that, with respect to any Distributed Securities that are convertible, exchangeable or exercisable, the foregoing provision shall only apply to the extent (and so long as) the Distributed Securities receivable upon conversion of such Notes would be convertible, exchangeable or exercisable, as applicable, without any loss of rights or privileges for a period of at least 60 days following conversion of such Notes. Upon conversion of the Notes the Holders shall receive, in addition to the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion, the rights issued under the Company's existing stockholder rights plan and any future stockholder rights plan the Company implements (notwithstanding the occurrence of an event causing such rights to separate from the Common Stock at or prior to the time of conversion). No adjustment pursuant to this Section 2.07 shall be made in connection with such stockholder rights plans. (4) For ~~the~~ purposes of this ~~paragraph (1)~~Section 2.07, the number of shares of Common Stock at any time outstanding shall not include shares held in the treasury of the Company but shall include shares issuable in respect of scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of shares of Common Stock. The Company ~~will~~ shall not pay any dividend or make any distribution on shares of Common Stock held in the treasury of the Company. (2) In case at any time after the Closing Date, the Company shall issue rights or warrants to all holders of its Common Stock (not being available on an equivalent basis to holders of the Debentures upon conversion) entitling them to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at a price per share less than the current market price per share (determined as provided in paragraph (8) of this Section 15.4) of the Common Stock on the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants, the Conversion Rate in effect at the opening of business on the day following the date fixed for such determination shall be increased by dividing such Conversion Rate by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at the close of business on the date fixed for such determination plus the number of shares of Common Stock which the aggregate of the offering price of the total number of shares of Common Stock so offered for subscription or purchase would purchase at such current market price and the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at the close of business on the date fixed for such determination plus the number of shares of Common Stock so offered for subscription or purchase, such increase to become effective immediately after the opening of business on the day following the date fixed for such determination. However, upon the expiration of any right or warrant to purchase Common Stock the issuance of which resulted in an adjustment in the Conversion Rate pursuant to this subsection (2), if any such right or warrant shall expire and shall not have been exercised, the Conversion Rate shall immediately upon such expiration be recomputed and effective immediately upon such expiration be increased to the price which it would have been (but reflecting any other adjustments in the Conversion Rate made pursuant to the provisions of this Section 15.4 after the issuance of such rights or warrants) had the adjustment of the Conversion Rate made upon the issuance of such rights or warrants been made on the basis of offering for subscription or purchase only that number of shares of Common Stock actually purchased upon the exercise of such rights or warrants actually exercised. For the purposes of this paragraph (2), the number of shares of Common Stock at any time outstanding shall not include shares held in the treasury of the Company but will include shares issuable in respect of scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of shares of Common Stock. The Company will not issue any rights or warrants in respect of shares of Common Stock held in the treasury of the Company. (3) In case at any time after the Closing Date, outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be subdivided into a greater number of shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Rate in effect at the opening of business on the day following the day upon which such subdivision becomes effective shall be proportionately increased and, conversely, in case at any time after the date hereof, outstanding shares of Common Stock shall each be combined into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Rate in effect at the opening of business on the day following the day upon which such combination becomes effective shall be proportionately reduced, such increase or reduction, 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. (4) In case at any time after the Closing Date, the Company shall, by dividend or otherwise, distribute to all holders of its Common Stock evidences of its indebtedness or assets (including stock or other securities of the Company or any other issuer, but excluding any rights or warrants referred to in paragraph (2) of this Section 15.4, any dividend or distribution paid exclusively in cash and any dividend or distribution referred to in paragraph (1) of this Section 15.4), the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted so that the same shall equal the rate determined by dividing the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the current market price per share (determined as provided in paragraph (8) of this Section 15.4) of the Common Stock on the date fixed for such determination less the then fair market value (each reference to "fair market value" in this Section 15.4 shall mean the fair market value as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company in good faith, whose determination shall be described in a Board Resolution, a copy of which shall be delivered to each holder of Debentures within ten (10) days of the adoption of the resolution) of the portion of the assets or evidences of indebtedness so distributed applicable to one (1) share of Common Stock and the denominator shall be such current market price per share of the Common Stock, such adjustment to become effective immediately prior to the opening of business on the day following the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution. (5) In case at any time after the Closing Date (A) 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 15.13 applies or as part of a distribution referred to in paragraph (4) of this Section 15.4) and (B)(I) the total of (x) the aggregate amount of such cash distribution, (y) the aggregate amount of any other distributions to all holders of its Common Stock made exclusively in cash within the twelve (12) months preceding the date of payment of such distribution and in respect of which no adjustment pursuant to this paragraph (5) or paragraph (6) of this Section 15.4 has been made and (z) the aggregate of any cash plus the fair market value of other consideration payable in respect of any tender offers by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for all or any portion of the Common Stock concluded within the twelve (12) months preceding the date of payment of such distribution and in respect of which no adjustment pursuant to this paragraph (5) or paragraph (6) of this Section 15.4 has been made, exceeds (II) ten percent (10%) of the product of the current market price per share (determined as provided in paragraph (8) of this Section 15.4) of the Common Stock on the date for the determination of holders of shares of Common Stock entitled to receive such distribution times the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such date, then, and in each such case, immediately after the close of business on such date for determination, the Conversion Rate shall be increased so that the same shall equal the rate determined by dividing the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the date fixed for determination of the stockholders entitled to receive such distribution by a fraction (i) the numerator of which shall be equal to such current market price per share on the date fixed for such determination less an amount equal to the quotient of (X) the sum of (I) the total of the amounts referred to in subclauses (B)(I)(x) and (y) of this paragraph (5) and (II) the aggregate of the excess of the amount referred to in subclause (B)(I)(z) of this paragraph (5) for each tender offer so referred to over the aggregate current market price of the shares of Common Stock purchased in such tender offer as of the Expiration Time (as hereinafter defined) for such tender offer divided by (Y) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such date for determination and (ii) the denominator of which shall be equal to such current market price per share on such date for determination.

(7) The reclassification of Common Stock into securities other than Common Stock (other than any reclassification upon a consolidation or merger to which Section 15.13 applies) shall be deemed to involve (a) a distribution of such securities other than Common Stock to all holders of Common Stock (and the effective date of such reclassification shall be deemed to be "the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution" and "the date fixed for such determination" within the meaning of paragraph (4) of this Section 15.4), and (b) a subdivision or combination, as the case may be, of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such reclassification into the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately thereafter (and the effective date of such reclassification shall be deemed to be "the day upon which such subdivision becomes effective" or "the day upon which such combination becomes effective", as the case may be, and "the day upon which such subdivision or combination becomes effective" within the meaning of paragraph (3) of this Section 15.4). (8) For the purpose of any computation under paragraph (2), (4), (5) or (6) of this Section 15.4, the current market price per share of Common Stock on any date shall be calculated by the Company and be deemed to be the average of the daily Closing Price per share of Common Stock for the five (5) consecutive Trading Days before, and ending not later than, the earlier of (i) the day in question and (ii) the day before the "ex" date with respect to the issuance or distribution requiring such computation. For purposes of this paragraph, the term "'ex' date", when used with respect to any issuance or distribution, means the first date on which the Common Stock trades regular way on the applicable securities exchange or in the applicable securities market without the right to receive such issuance or distribution. (9) The Company may make such increases in the Conversion Rate, for the remaining term of the Debentures or any shorter term, in addition to those required by paragraphs (1), (2), (3), (4), (5) and (6) of this Section 15.4, as it considers to be advisable in order to avoid or diminish any income tax to any holders of shares of Common Stock resulting from any dividend or distribution of stock or issuance of rights or warrants to purchase or subscribe for stock or from any event treated as such for income tax purposes or for any other reasons.

If any dividend or distribution of ~~shares and~~ the ~~total number of shares constituting~~ type described in clause (i) above is not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall again be adjusted to the Conversion Rate which would then be in effect if such dividend or ~~other distribution, such increase~~ distribution had not been declared. An adjustment made pursuant to this Section 4.06 shall become effective immediately after the ~~opening of business on the day following the date fixed for such determination. For the purposes of this paragraph (1), the number of shares of~~ Common Stock ~~at any time outstanding shall not include shares held~~ Record Date in the ~~treasury~~ case of a dividend and shall become effective immediately after the Company but shall include shares issuable in respect of scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of shares of Common Stock.

(2b) In case ~~at any time after the Closing Date,~~ the Company shall issue rights or warrants to all holders of any class or series of its Common Stock ~~(not being available on an equivalent basis to holders of the Debentures upon conversion)~~ entitling them (for a period expiring within 60 days after the date fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants) to subscribe for or purchase ~~shares of~~ Common Stock at a price per share less than the ~~current market price~~ Sale Price per share ~~(determined as provided in paragraph (8)~~ of ~~this Section 15.4)~~ Common Stock on the day preceding the date of announcement of the Common Stock ~~on the date fixed~~ Record Date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants, the Conversion Rate in effect at immediately prior thereto shall be adjusted so that the ~~opening of business on~~ same shall equal the ~~day following~~ Conversion Rate determined by multiplying the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the date ~~fixed for~~ of the issuance of such ~~determination shall be increased by dividing such Conversion Rate~~ rights or warrants by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding ~~at the close of business~~ on the date ~~fixed for~~ of issuance of such ~~determination~~ rights or warrants plus the number of additional shares of Common Stock ~~which the aggregate of the offering price of the total number of shares of Common Stock so~~ offered for subscription or ~~purchase would purchase at such current market price~~ purchase, and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding ~~at the close of business~~ on the date ~~fixed for~~ of issuance of such ~~determination~~ rights or warrants plus the number of shares which the aggregate offering price of ~~Common Stock~~ the total number of shares so offered ~~for subscription~~ would purchase at such Sale Price. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever any such rights or ~~purchase~~warrants are issued, ~~such increase to~~ and shall become effective immediately after the opening of business on the day following the ~~date fixed~~ Common Stock Record Date for the determination of the stockholders entitled to receive such ~~determination~~rights or warrants. ~~However, upon~~ To the extent that shares of Common Stock are not delivered after the expiration of ~~any right~~ such rights or warrant to purchase Common Stock the issuance of which resulted in an adjustment in the Conversion Rate pursuant to this subsection (2), if any such right or warrant shall expire and shall not have been exercisedwarrants, the Conversion Rate shall ~~immediately upon such expiration~~ be ~~recomputed and effective immediately upon such expiration be increased~~ readjusted to ~~the price which it would have been (but reflecting any other adjustments in~~ the Conversion Rate ~~made pursuant to the provisions of this Section 15.4 after the issuance of such rights or warrants)~~ which would then be in effect had the ~~adjustment of the Conversion Rate~~ adjustments made upon the issuance of such rights or warrants been made on the basis of ~~offering for subscription or purchase~~ delivery of only ~~that~~ the number of shares of Common Stock actually ~~purchased upon the exercise of~~ delivered. If such rights or warrants ~~actually exercised. For the purposes of this paragraph (2)~~are not so issued, the ~~number~~ Conversion Rate shall again be adjusted to be the Conversion Rate which would then be in effect if such Common Stock Record Date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants had not been fixed. In determining whether any rights or warrants entitle the holders to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at ~~any time outstanding shall not include shares held~~ less than such Sale Price, and in determining the ~~treasury~~ aggregate offering price of the Company but will include shares issuable in respect of scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of shares of Common Stock. The Company will not issue any rights or warrants in respect of shares of Common Stock held in the treasury of the Company. (3) In case at any time after the Closing Date, outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be subdivided into a greater number of such shares of Common Stock, ~~the Conversion Rate in effect at the opening of business on the day following the day upon which such subdivision becomes effective~~ there shall be ~~proportionately increased and, conversely, in case at~~ taken into account any ~~time after~~ consideration received by the ~~date hereof, outstanding shares of Common Stock shall each be combined into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock~~Company for such rights or warrants, the ~~Conversion Rate in effect at the opening~~ value of ~~business on the day following the day upon which~~ such ~~combination becomes effective shall be proportionately reduced~~consideration, ~~such increase or reduction, as the case may be~~if other than cash, to ~~become effective immediately after~~ be determined by the ~~opening~~ Board of ~~business on the day following the day upon which such subdivision or combination becomes effective~~Directors. (4c) In case ~~at any time after the Closing Date,~~ the Company shall, by dividend or otherwise, distribute to all holders of its Common Stock (excluding any distribution in connection with the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary) any evidences of its indebtedness or assets (~~including stock~~ other than Cash) or ~~other securities of the Company or any other issuer, but excluding any~~ rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any of its securities (excluding those referred to in ~~paragraph~~ Section 4.06(b)) (2) any of the foregoing hereinafter in this Section ~~15.4~~4.06(c) called the "Distributed Securities"), ~~any dividend or distribution paid exclusively in cash and any dividend or distribution referred to in paragraph (1) of this Section 15.4)~~then, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted so that the same shall equal the ~~rate~~ Conversion Rate determined by ~~dividing~~ multiplying the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the ~~close~~ date of ~~business on the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive~~ such distribution by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the ~~current market price~~ Market Price per share ~~(determined as provided in paragraph (8) of this Section 15.4)~~ of the Common Stock on the ~~date fixed for~~ Common Stock Record Date mentioned below, and the denominator shall be the Sale Price per share of the Common Stock on such ~~determination~~ Common Stock Record Date less ~~the then fair market value (each reference to "fair market value" in this Section 15.4 shall mean~~ the fair market value on such Common Stock Record Date (as determined by the Board of ~~Directors of the Company in good faith~~Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive, and described in a ~~Board Resolution, a copy of which shall be delivered to each holder of Debentures within ten (10) days of~~ certificate filed with the ~~adoption of the resolution~~Trustee) of the ~~portion of the assets or evidences of indebtedness~~ Distributed Securities so distributed applicable to one ~~(1)~~ share of Common ~~Stock and the denominator~~ Stock. Such adjustment shall ~~be such current market price per share of the Common Stock, such adjustment to~~ become effective immediately ~~prior to~~ after the ~~opening of business on the day following the date fixed~~ Common Stock Record Date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event (a) the then fair market value (as so determined) of the portion of the Distributed Securities so distributed applicable to one share of Common Stock is equal to or greater than the Market Price of the Common Stock on the Common Stock Record Date or (b) such Market Price exceeds the fair market value of such Distributed Securities by less than $1.00, 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 Distributed Securities such Holder would have received had such Holder converted each Note on such Common Stock Record Date. In the event that such distribution is not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall again be adjusted to the Conversion Rate which would then be in effect if such distribution had not been declared. If the Board of Directors determines the fair market value of any distribution for purposes of this Section 4.06(c) by reference to the actual or when issued trading market for any securities, it must in doing so consider the prices in such market on the same day used in computing the Sale Price of the Common Stock. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.06(c), no adjustment shall be made thereunder for any distribution of Distributed Securities if the Company makes proper provision so that each Holder of a Note who converts such Note (or any portion thereof) after the Common Stock Record Date for such distribution shall be entitled to receive upon such conversion, in addition to the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion, the amount and kind of Distributed Securities that such Holder would have been entitled to receive if such Holder had, immediately prior to such Common Stock Record Date, converted such Note for Common Stock; provided that, with respect to any Distributed Securities that are convertible, exchangeable or exercisable, the foregoing provision shall only apply to the extent (and so long as) the Distributed Securities receivable upon conversion of such Note would be convertible, exchangeable or exercisable, as applicable, without any loss of rights or privileges for a period of at least 60 days following conversion of such Note. Upon conversion of the Notes the Holders shall receive, in addition to the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion, any rights issued under any future stockholder rights plan the Company implements (notwithstanding the occurrence of an event causing such rights to separate from the Common Stock at or prior to the time of conversion). (5d) In case ~~at any time after the Closing Date (A)~~ the Company shall, by dividend or otherwise, distribute to all holders of any class of its Common Stock ~~cash~~ Cash (excluding any ~~cash~~ Cash that is distributed upon a merger or consolidation to which Section ~~15.13 applies or as part of a distribution referred to~~ 4.07(f) applies) in ~~paragraph (4) of this Section 15.4) and (B)(I) the total of (x) the~~ an aggregate amount ~~of such cash distribution~~that, combined together with (yi) the aggregate amount of any other such distributions to all holders of any class of its Common Stock made exclusively in ~~cash~~ Cash within the ~~twelve (12)~~ 12 months preceding the date of payment of such ~~distribution~~ distribution, and in respect of which no adjustment pursuant to this ~~paragraph (5~~Section 4.06(d) ~~or paragraph (6) of this Section 15.4~~ has been ~~made~~ made, and (zii) the aggregate of any ~~cash~~ Cash plus the fair market value of other consideration (as so determined by the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive, and described in a certificate filed with the Trustee) payable in respect of any tender ~~offers~~ offer 33 -30- by the Company ~~or any of its Subsidiaries~~ for all or any portion of ~~the~~ any class of its Common Stock concluded within the ~~twelve (12)~~ 12 months preceding the date of payment of such ~~distribution~~ distribution, and in respect of which no adjustment pursuant to ~~this paragraph (5~~Section 4.06(e) ~~or paragraph (6) of this Section 15.4~~ has been made, exceeds ~~(II) ten percent (~~10%) % of the product of the ~~current market price per share (determined as provided in paragraph (8) of this Section 15.4) of the Common Stock~~ Sale Price on the day preceding the date ~~for the determination~~ of ~~holders~~ declaration of ~~shares of Common Stock entitled to receive~~ such dividend or distribution times the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such date, then, and in each such case, immediately after the close of business on such ~~date for determination~~date, the Conversion Rate shall be increased so that the same shall equal the ~~rate~~ Conversion Rate determined by ~~dividing~~ multiplying the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the ~~close~~ Common Stock Record Date by a fraction of which the numerator shall be such Sale Price of the Common Stock and the denominator shall be such Sale Price of the Common Stock less the amount of Cash and the fair market value (as so determined) of such other consideration so distributed (and not excluded as provided above) applicable to one share of Common Stock, such increase to be effective immediately prior to the opening of business on the ~~date fixed~~ day following the Common Stock Record Date; provided, however, that no adjustment will be made in respect of any such dividends and distributions that are paid during any period for ~~determination~~ which we are paying contingent interest to Holders; provided, further, that, if the portion of the ~~stockholders entitled~~ cash so distributed applicable to ~~receive such distribution by a fraction~~ one share of Common Stock is (i) equal to or greater than the ~~numerator~~ Market Price of ~~which~~ the Common Stock on the day preceding the date of declaration of such dividend or distribution or (ii) the Market Price of the Common Stock on the day preceding the date of declaration of such dividend or distribution is greater than the fair market value of the consideration distributed pursuant to Section 4.06(e) by less than $1.00, then, in lieu of the foregoing adjustment, adequate provision shall be ~~equal~~ made so that each Holder shall have the right to ~~such current market price per share on the date fixed for such determination less an amount equal~~ receive upon conversion, in addition to the quotient of (X) the sum of (I) the total of the amounts referred to in subclauses (B)(I)(x) and (y) of this paragraph (5) and (II) the aggregate of the excess of the amount referred to in subclause (B)(I)(z) of this paragraph (5) for each tender offer so referred to over the aggregate current market price of the shares of Common Stock, Cash and other consideration the Holder would have received had such Holder converted such Note immediately prior to such Common Stock ~~purchased~~ Record Date. If such dividend or distribution is not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall again be adjusted to be the Conversion Rate which would then be in effect if such ~~tender offer~~ dividend or distribution had not been declared. If any adjustment is required to be made as set forth in this Section 4.06(d) as a result of a distribution that is a quarterly dividend, such adjustment shall be based upon the amount by which such distribution exceeds the amount of the ~~Expiration Time (~~quarterly cash dividend permitted to be excluded pursuant hereto.

(7) The reclassification of Common Stock into securities other than Common Stock (other than any reclassification upon a consolidation or merger to which Section 15.13 applies) shall be deemed to involve (a) a distribution of such securities other than Common Stock to all holders of Common Stock (and the effective date of such reclassification shall be deemed to be "the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution" and "the date fixed for such determination" within the meaning of paragraph (4) of this Section 15.4), and (b) a subdivision or combination, as the case may be, of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such reclassification into the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately thereafter (and the effective date of such reclassification shall be deemed to be "the day upon which such subdivision becomes effective" or "the day upon which such combination becomes effective", as the case may be, and "the day upon which such subdivision or combination becomes effective" within the meaning of paragraph (3) of this Section 15.4). (8) For the purpose of any computation under paragraph (2), (4), (5) or (6) of this Section 15.4, the current market price per share of Common Stock on any date shall be calculated by the Company and be deemed to be the average of the daily Closing Price per share of Common Stock for the five (5) consecutive Trading Days before, and ending not later than, the earlier of (i) the day in question and (ii) the day before the "ex" date with respect to the issuance or distribution requiring such computation. For purposes of this paragraph, the term "'ex' date", when used with respect to any issuance or distribution, means the first date on which the Common Stock trades regular way on the applicable securities exchange or in the applicable securities market without the right to receive such issuance or distribution. (9) The Company may make such increases in the Conversion Rate, for the remaining term of the Debentures or any shorter term, in addition to those required by paragraphs (1), (2), (3), (4), (5) and (6) of this Section 15.4, as it considers to be advisable in order to avoid or diminish any income tax to any holders of shares of Common Stock resulting from any dividend or distribution of stock or issuance of rights or warrants to purchase or subscribe for stock or from any event treated as such for income tax purposes or for any other reasons.as

To the ~~adjustment~~ extent that shares of Common Stock are not delivered after the expiration of such rights or warrants, the Conversion Rate shall be readjusted to the Conversion Rate which would then be in effect had the adjustments made upon the issuance of such rights or warrants been made on the basis of ~~offering for subscription or purchase~~ delivery of only ~~that~~ the number of shares of Common Stock actually ~~purchased upon the exercise of~~ delivered. If such rights or warrants ~~actually exercised. For the purposes of this paragraph (2)~~are not so issued, the ~~number of~~ Conversion Rate shall again be adjusted to be the Conversion Rate that would be in effect if such rights or warrants had not been issued. In determining whether any rights or warrants entitle the holders to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at ~~any time outstanding shall not include shares held~~ less than such Current Market Price, and in determining the ~~treasury~~ aggregate offering price of ~~the Company but will include shares issuable in respect of scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of~~ such shares of Common Stock~~.

(3c) In case ~~at any time after the Closing Date,~~ outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be subdivided into a greater number of shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Rate in effect at the opening of business on the day following the day upon which such subdivision becomes effective shall be proportionately ~~increased and~~increased, and conversely, in case ~~at any time after the date hereof,~~ outstanding shares of Common Stock shall ~~each~~ be combined into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Rate in effect at the opening of business on the day following the day upon which such combination becomes effective shall be proportionately reduced, such increase or reduction, 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. (4d) In case ~~at any time after the Closing Date,~~ the Company shall, by dividend or otherwise, distribute to all holders of its Common Stock (excluding (x) any distribution in connection with the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary, (y) distributions referred to in Sections 12.06(a) and 12.06(b) hereof or (z) distributions paid exclusively in cash) its Capital Stock (other than Common Stock), evidences of its ~~indebtedness or assets (including stock or other securities of the Company or any other issuer~~indebtedness, ~~but excluding any~~ cash, rights or warrants ~~referred to~~ or other assets, including securities (any of the foregoing hereinafter in ~~paragraph (2) of~~ this Section ~~15.4, any dividend or distribution paid exclusively in cash and any dividend or distribution referred to in paragraph (1~~12.06(d) ~~of this Section 15.4)~~called the "DISTRIBUTED ASSETS") then, the Conversion Rate shall be ~~adjusted~~ increased so that the same shall equal the ~~rate~~ Conversion Rate determined by ~~dividing~~ multiplying the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the record date ~~fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled~~ with respect to ~~receive~~ such distribution by a ~~fraction~~ fraction, (i) the numerator of which ~~the numerator~~ shall be the ~~current market price~~ Current Market Price per share of the Common Stock on such record date, and (ii) the denominator 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 ~~as provided~~ by the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive, and described in ~~paragraph~~ an Officers' Certificate filed with the Trustee and the Paying Agent) of the Distributed Assets so distributed applicable to one share of Common Stock.

In the event that such distribution is not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall again be adjusted to the Conversion Rate which would then ~~fair market value (each reference to "fair market value"~~ be in ~~this Section 15.4 shall mean the fair market value as determined by~~ effect if such distribution had not been declared. If the Board of Directors determines the Fair Market Value of any distribution for purposes of this Section 12.06(d) by reference to the actual or when issued trading market for any securities, it must in doing so consider the prices in such market over the same period used in computing the Current Market Price on the applicable Record Date. For purposes of this Section 12.06(d) and Section 12.06(a) and (b), any dividend or distribution to which this Section 12.06(d) is applicable that also includes shares of Common Stock, or such rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock of the ~~Company~~ type described in ~~good faith~~Section 12.06(b) (or both), ~~whose determination~~ shall be ~~described in a Board Resolution, a copy of which shall~~ deemed instead to be ~~delivered to each holder of Debentures within ten (10) days of the adoption of the resolution) of the portion of the assets or evidences of indebtedness so distributed applicable to one~~ (1) ~~share~~ a dividend or distribution of the evidences of indebtedness, assets or shares of Capital Stock other than such shares of Common Stock or rights or warrants (and ~~the denominator~~ any Conversion Rate adjustment required by this Section 12.06(d) with respect to such dividend or distribution shall then be made) immediately followed by (2) a dividend or distribution of such ~~current market price per share~~ shares of ~~the~~ Common ~~Stock,~~ Stock or such rights or warrants (and any further Conversion Rate adjustment required by Sections 12.06(a) and (b) with respect to ~~become effective immediately prior to the opening of business on the day following the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive~~ such ~~distribution~~dividend or distribution shall then be made).

Such adjustment shall become effective immediately after the record date for ~~determination~~the Current Cash Distribution. (f) In case the Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall make a payment in respect of a tender offer or exchange offer for all or any portion of Common Stock and the aggregate amount of the cash and the Fair Market Value of any other consideration included in such payment exceeds 12.5% of the product of the Current Market Price per share on the expiration date (the "OFFER EXPIRATION DATE") of such tender or exchange offer and the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such date, then, the Conversion Rate shall be increased so that the same shall equal the ~~rate~~ Conversion Rate determined by ~~dividing~~ multiplying the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the ~~date fixed for determination of the stockholders entitled to receive such distribution~~ Offer Expiration Date by a ~~fraction~~ fraction, (i) the numerator of which shall be ~~equal to such current market price~~ the Current Market Price per share of the Common Stock on the date fixed for such determination less an amount equal to the quotient of (X) the sum of (I) the total of the amounts referred to in subclauses (B)(I)(x) and (y) of this paragraph (5) and (II) the aggregate of the excess of the amount referred to in subclause (B)(I)(z) of this paragraph (5) for each tender offer so referred to over the aggregate current market price of the shares of Common Stock purchased in such tender offer as of the Offer Expiration ~~Time (as hereinafter defined) for such tender offer divided by (Y) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such date for determination and~~ Date, and (ii) the denominator of which shall be ~~equal to such current market price per share on such date for determination.

(7g) The reclassification of Common Stock into securities other than Common Stock (other than any reclassification upon a consolidation or merger to which Section 15.13 applies) shall be deemed to involve (a) a distribution of such securities other than Common Stock to all holders of Common Stock (and the effective date of such reclassification shall be deemed to be "the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution" and "the date fixed for such determination" within the meaning of paragraph (4) of this Section 15.4), and (b) a subdivision or combination, as the case may be, of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such reclassification into the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately thereafter (and the effective date of such reclassification shall be deemed to be "the day upon which such subdivision becomes effective" or "the day upon which such combination becomes effective", as the case may be, and "the day upon which such subdivision or combination becomes effective" within the meaning of paragraph (3) of this Section 15.4). (8) For the purpose of any computation under paragraph (2), (4), (5) or (6) of this Section 15.4, the current market price per share of Common Stock on any date shall be calculated by the Company and be deemed to be the average of the daily Closing Price per share of Common Stock for the five (5) consecutive Trading Days before, and ending not later than, the earlier of (i) the day in question and (ii) the day before the "ex" date with respect to the issuance or distribution requiring such computation. For purposes of this paragraph, the term "'ex' date", when used with respect to any issuance or distribution, means the first date on which the Common Stock trades regular way on the applicable securities exchange or in the applicable securities market without the right to receive such issuance or distribution. (9) The Company may make such increases in the Conversion Rate, for the remaining term of the Debentures or any shorter term, in addition to those required by paragraphs (1), (2), (3), (4), (5) and (6) of this Section 15.4, as it considers to be advisable in order to avoid or diminish any income tax to any holders of shares of Common Stock resulting from any dividend or distribution of stock or issuance of rights or warrants to purchase or subscribe for stock or from any event treated as such for income tax purposes or for any other reasons.Article 12:

Adjustments to Conversion Rate. The Conversion Rate shall be ~~subject to adjustments~~ adjusted from time to time by the Company as follows: (1a) In case ~~at any time after the Closing Date~~ the Company shall (i) pay a dividend, or make a ~~dividend or other distribution on any class of Capital Stock of the Company (other than the Series C Preferred Stock)~~ distribution, in shares of ~~its~~ Common Stock or other capital stock, on Common Stock; (ii) subdivide its outstanding Common Stock into a greater number of shares; or (iii) combine its outstanding Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the Conversion Rate in effect at immediately prior thereto shall be adjusted so that the ~~opening~~ holder of ~~business on the day following the date fixed~~ any Note thereafter surrendered for ~~the determination of stockholders~~ conversion shall be entitled to receive ~~such dividend or other distribution shall be increased by dividing such Conversion Rate by a fraction of which the numerator shall be~~ the number of shares of Common Stock ~~outstanding at~~ which such holder would have owned or have been entitled to receive after the ~~close~~ happening of ~~business on~~ any of the ~~date fixed for~~ events described above had such ~~determination and~~ Note been converted immediately prior to the ~~denominator shall be the sum~~ happening of such ~~number~~ event. If any dividend or distribution of ~~shares and~~ the ~~total number of shares constituting~~ type described in clause (i) above is not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall again be adjusted to the Conversion Rate which would then be in effect if such dividend or ~~other distribution, such increase~~ distribution had not been declared. An adjustment made pursuant to this Section 4.06 shall become effective immediately after the opening of business on the day following the date fixed for such determination. For the purposes of this paragraph (1), the number of shares of Common Stock at any time outstanding shall not include shares held Record Date in the ~~treasury~~ case of a dividend and shall become effective immediately after the Company but shall include shares issuable in respect of scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of shares of Common Stock. The Company will not pay any dividend or make any distribution on shares of Common Stock held effective date in the ~~treasury~~ case of ~~the Company~~subdivision or combination. (2b) In case ~~at any time after the Closing Date,~~ the Company shall issue rights or warrants to all holders of any class or series of its Common Stock ~~(not being available on an equivalent basis to holders of the Debentures upon conversion)~~ entitling them (for a period expiring within 60 days after the date fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants) to subscribe for or purchase ~~shares of~~ Common Stock at a price per share less than the ~~current market price~~ Sale Price per share ~~(determined as provided in paragraph (8)~~ of ~~this Section 15.4) of the~~ Common Stock on the day preceding the date ~~fixed~~ of announcement of the Record Date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants, the Conversion Rate in effect at immediately prior thereto shall be adjusted so that the ~~opening of business on~~ same shall equal the ~~day following~~ Conversion Rate determined by multiplying the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the date ~~fixed for~~ of the issuance of such ~~determination shall be increased by dividing such Conversion Rate~~ rights or warrants by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding ~~at the close of business~~ on the date ~~fixed for~~ of issuance of such ~~determination~~ rights or warrants plus the number of additional shares of Common Stock ~~which the aggregate of the offering price of the total number of shares of Common Stock so~~ offered for subscription or ~~purchase would purchase at such current market price~~ purchase, and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding ~~at the close of business~~ on the date ~~fixed for~~ of issuance of such ~~determination~~ rights or warrants plus the number of shares which the aggregate offering price of ~~Common Stock~~ the total number of shares so offered ~~for subscription~~ would purchase at such Sale Price. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever any such rights or ~~purchase~~warrants are issued, ~~such increase to~~ and shall become effective immediately after the opening of business on the day following the ~~date fixed~~ Record Date for the determination of the stockholders entitled to receive such ~~determination~~rights or warrants. ~~However, upon~~ To the extent that shares of Common Stock are not delivered after the expiration of ~~any right~~ such rights or warrant to purchase Common Stock the issuance of which resulted in an adjustment in the Conversion Rate pursuant to this subsection (2), if any such right or warrant shall expire and shall not have been exercisedwarrants, the Conversion Rate shall ~~immediately upon such expiration~~ be ~~recomputed and effective immediately upon such expiration be increased~~ readjusted to ~~the price which it would have been (but reflecting any other adjustments in~~ the Conversion Rate ~~made pursuant to the provisions of this Section 15.4 after the issuance of such rights or warrants)~~ which would then be in effect had the ~~adjustment of the Conversion Rate~~ adjustments made upon the issuance of such rights or warrants been made on the basis of ~~offering for subscription or purchase~~ delivery of only ~~that~~ the number of shares of Common Stock actually ~~purchased upon the exercise of~~ delivered. If such rights or warrants ~~actually exercised. For the purposes of this paragraph (2)~~are not so issued, the ~~number~~ Conversion Rate shall again be adjusted to be the Conversion Rate which would then be in effect if such Record Date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants had not been fixed. In determining whether any rights or warrants entitle the holders to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at ~~any time outstanding shall not include shares held~~ less than such Sale Price, and in determining the ~~treasury~~ aggregate offering price of the Company but will include shares issuable in respect of scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of shares of Common Stock. The Company will not issue any rights or warrants in respect of shares of Common Stock held in the treasury of the Company. (3) In case at any time after the Closing Date, outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be subdivided into a greater number of such shares of Common Stock, ~~the Conversion Rate in effect at the opening of business on the day following the day upon which such subdivision becomes effective~~ there shall be ~~proportionately increased and, conversely, in case at~~ taken into account any ~~time after~~ consideration received by the ~~date hereof, outstanding shares of Common Stock shall each be combined into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock~~Company for such rights or warrants, the ~~Conversion Rate in effect at the opening~~ value of ~~business on the day following the day upon which~~ such ~~combination becomes effective shall be proportionately reduced~~consideration, ~~such increase or reduction, as the case may be~~if other than cash, to ~~become effective immediately after~~ be determined by the ~~opening~~ Board of ~~business on the day following the day upon which such subdivision or combination becomes effective~~Directors. (4c) In case ~~at any time after the Closing Date,~~ the Company shall, by dividend or otherwise, distribute to all holders of its Common Stock (excluding any distribution in connection with the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary) evidences of its indebtedness or assets (~~including stock~~ other than Cash) or ~~other securities of the Company or any other issuer, but excluding any~~ rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any of its securities (excluding those referred to in ~~paragraph~~ Section 4.06(b)) (2) any of the foregoing hereinafter in this Section ~~15.4~~4.06(c) called the "Distributed ----------- Securities"), ~~any dividend or distribution paid exclusively in cash and any dividend or distribution referred to in paragraph (1) of this Section 15.4)~~then, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted so that the same ---------- shall equal the ~~rate~~ Conversion Rate determined by ~~dividing~~ multiplying the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the ~~close~~ date of ~~business on the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive~~ such distribution by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the ~~current market price~~ Market Price per share ~~(determined as provided in paragraph (8) of this Section 15.4)~~ of the Common Stock on the ~~date fixed for~~ Record Date mentioned below, and the denominator shall be the Market Price per share of the Common Stock on such ~~determination~~ Record Date less ~~the then fair market value (each reference to "fair market value" in this Section 15.4 shall mean~~ the fair market value on such Record Date (as determined by the Board of ~~Directors of the Company in good faith~~Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive, and described in a ~~Board Resolution, a copy of which shall be delivered to each holder of Debentures within ten (10) days of~~ certificate filed with the ~~adoption of the resolution~~Trustee) of the ~~portion of the assets or evidences of indebtedness~~ Distributed Securities so distributed applicable to one ~~(1)~~ share of Common ~~Stock and the denominator~~ Stock. Such adjustment shall ~~be such current market price per share of the Common Stock, such adjustment to~~ become effective immediately ~~prior to~~ after the ~~opening of business on the day following the date fixed~~ Record Date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event (a) the then fair market value (as so determined) of the portion of the Distributed Securities so distributed applicable to one share of Common Stock is equal to or greater than the Market Price of the Common Stock on the Record Date or (b) such Market Price exceeds the fair market value of such Distributed Securities by less than $1.00, 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 Distributed Securities such Holder would have received had such Holder converted each Note on such Record Date. In the event that such distribution is not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall again be adjusted to the Conversion Rate which would then be in effect if such distribution had not been declared. If the Board of Directors determines the fair market value of any distribution for purposes of this Section 4.06(c) by reference to the actual or when issued trading market for any securities, it must in doing so consider the prices in such market on the same day used in computing the Sale Price of the Common Stock. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.06(c), no adjustment shall be made thereunder for any distribution of Distributed Securities if the Company makes proper provision so that each Holder of a Note who converts such Note (or any portion thereof) after the Record Date for such distribution shall be entitled to receive upon such conversion, in addition to the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion, the amount and kind of Distributed Securities that such Holder would have been entitled to receive if such Holder had, immediately prior to such Record Date, converted such Note for Common Stock; provided that, with respect to any Distributed Securities that are convertible, exchangeable or exercisable, the foregoing provision shall only apply to the extent (and so long as) the Distributed Securities receivable upon conversion of such Note would be convertible, exchangeable or exercisable, as applicable, without any loss of rights or privileges for a period of at least 60 days following conversion of such Note. Upon conversion of the Notes the Holders shall receive, in addition to the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion, any rights issued under any future stockholder rights plan the Company implements (notwithstanding the occurrence of an event causing such rights to separate from the Common Stock at or prior to the time of conversion). (5d) In case ~~at any time after the Closing Date (A)~~ the Company shall, by dividend or otherwise, distribute to all holders of any class of its Common Stock ~~cash~~ Cash (excluding any ~~cash~~ Cash that is distributed upon a merger or consolidation to which Section ~~15.13~~ 4.07(f) applies ~~or as part of a distribution referred to~~ in ~~paragraph (4) of this Section 15.4) and (B)(I) the total of (x) the~~ an aggregate amount ~~of such cash distribution~~that, combined together with (yi) the aggregate amount of any other such distributions to all holders of any class of its Common Stock made exclusively in ~~cash~~ Cash within the ~~twelve (12)~~ 12 months preceding the date of payment of such ~~distribution~~ distribution, and in respect of which no adjustment pursuant to this ~~paragraph (5~~Section 4.06(d) ~~or paragraph (6) of this Section 15.4~~ has been ~~made~~ made, and (zii) the aggregate of any ~~cash~~ Cash plus the fair market value of other consideration (as so determined by the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive, and described in a certificate filed with the Trustee) payable in respect of any tender ~~offers~~ offer by the Company ~~or any of its Subsidiaries~~ for all or any portion of ~~the~~ any class of its Common Stock concluded within the ~~twelve (12)~~ 12 months preceding the date of payment of such ~~distribution~~ distribution, and in respect of which no adjustment pursuant to ~~this paragraph (5~~Section 4.06(e) ~~or paragraph (6) of this Section 15.4~~ has been made, exceeds ~~(II) ten percent (~~10%) % of the product of the ~~current market price per share (determined as provided in paragraph (8) of this Section 15.4) of the Common Stock~~ Sale Price on the day preceding the date ~~for the determination~~ of ~~holders~~ declaration of ~~shares of Common Stock entitled to receive~~ such dividend or distribution times the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such date, then, and in each such case, immediately after the close of business on such ~~date for determination~~date, the Conversion Rate shall be increased so that the same shall equal the ~~rate~~ Conversion Rate determined by ~~dividing~~ multiplying the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the ~~close~~ Record Date by a fraction of which the numerator shall be such Sale Price of the Common Stock and the denominator shall be such Sale Price of the Common Stock less the amount of Cash so distributed (and not excluded as provided above) applicable to one share of Common Stock, such increase to be effective immediately prior to the opening of business on the ~~date fixed for determination~~ day following the Record Date; provided, however, that no adjustment will be made in respect -------- ------- of any such dividends and distributions that result in the payment of any contingent interest to the Holders; provided, further, that, if the portion -------- ------- of the ~~stockholders entitled~~ cash so distributed applicable to ~~receive such distribution by a fraction~~ one share of Common Stock is (i) equal to or greater than the ~~numerator~~ Market Price of ~~which~~ the Common Stock on the day preceding the date of declaration of such dividend or distribution or (ii) the Market Price of the Common Stock on the day preceding the date of declaration of such dividend or distribution is greater than the fair market value of the consideration distributed pursuant to Section 4.06(e) by less than $1.00, then, in lieu of the foregoing adjustment, adequate provision shall be ~~equal~~ made so that each Holder shall have the right to ~~such current market price per share on the date fixed for such determination less an amount equal~~ receive upon conversion, in addition to the quotient of (X) the sum of (I) the total of the amounts referred to in subclauses (B)(I)(x) and (y) of this paragraph (5) and (II) the aggregate of the excess of the amount referred to in subclause (B)(I)(z) of this paragraph (5) for each tender offer so referred to over the aggregate current market price of the shares of Common ~~Stock purchased~~ Stock, the cash and other consideration the Holder would have received had such Holder converted such Note immediately prior to such Record Date. If such dividend or distribution is not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall again be adjusted to be the Conversion Rate which would then be in effect if such ~~tender offer~~ dividend or distribution had not been declared. If any adjustment is required to be made as set forth in this Section 4.06(d) as a result of a distribution that is a quarterly dividend, such adjustment shall be based upon the amount by which such distribution exceeds the amount of the ~~Expiration Time (~~quarterly cash dividend permitted to be excluded pursuant hereto. If an adjustment is required to be made as ~~hereinafter defined~~set forth in this Section 4.06(d) ~~for~~ above as a result of a distribution that is not a quarterly dividend, such ~~tender offer divided by (Y) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such date for determination and (ii) the denominator of which~~ adjustment shall be ~~equal to such current market price per share on such date for determination~~based upon the full amount of the distribution.

(8) For the purpose of any computation under paragraph (2), (4), (5) or (6) of this Section 15.4, the current market price per share of Common Stock on any date shall be calculated by the Company and be deemed to be the average of the daily Closing Price per share of Common Stock for the five (5) consecutive Trading Days before, and ending not later than, the earlier of (i) the day in question and (ii) the day before the "ex" date with respect to the issuance or distribution requiring such computation. For purposes of this paragraph, the term "'ex' date", when used with respect to any issuance or distribution, means the first date on which the Common Stock trades regular way on the applicable securities exchange or in the applicable securities market without the right to receive such issuance or distribution. (9) The Company may make such increases in the Conversion Rate, for the remaining term of the Debentures or any shorter term, in addition to those required by paragraphs (1), (2), (3), (4), (5) and (6) of this Section 15.4, as it considers to be advisable in order to avoid or diminish any income tax to any holders of shares of Common Stock resulting from any dividend or distribution of stock or issuance of rights or warrants to purchase or subscribe for stock or from any event treated as such for income tax purposes or for any other reasons.on

Adjustments to Conversion Rate. The Conversion Rate shall be ~~subject to adjustments~~ adjusted from time to time by the Company as follows: (1) In case ~~at any time after the Closing Date~~ the Company shall (a) pay a dividend, or make a ~~dividend or other distribution on any class of Capital Stock of the Company (other than the Series C Preferred Stock)~~ distribution, in shares of its capital stock, on its Common Stock; (b) subdivide its outstanding Common Stock into a greater number of shares; (c) combine its outstanding Common Stock into a smaller number of shares; or (d) reclassify its Common Stock, the Conversion Rate in effect at immediately prior thereto shall be adjusted so that the ~~opening~~ holder of ~~business on~~ any CZARS thereafter surrendered for conversion shall be entitled to receive the ~~day following~~ 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 CZARS been converted immediately prior to the happening of such event. If any dividend or distribution of the type described in clause (a) above is not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall again be adjusted to the Conversion Rate which would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared. An adjustment made pursuant to this Section 2.07(1) shall become effective immediately after the applicable Record Date in the case of a dividend and shall become effective immediately after the applicable effective date in the case of subdivision, combination or reclassification of the Company's Common Stock. (2) In case the Company shall issue rights or warrants to all holders of its Common Stock entitling them (for a period expiring within 60 days after the date fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants) to subscribe for or purchase Common Stock at a price per share less than the Sale Price per share of Common Stock at the Record Date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such ~~dividend~~ rights or ~~other distribution~~ warrants, the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior thereto shall be ~~increased by dividing such~~ adjusted so that the same shall equal the Conversion Rate determined by multiplying the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the date of the issuance of such rights or warrants by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding ~~at the close of business~~ on the date ~~fixed~~ of issuance of such rights or warrants plus the number of additional shares of Common Stock offered for ~~such determination~~ subscription or purchase, and of which the denominator shall be the ~~sum of such~~ number of shares ~~and~~ of 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 ~~constituting~~ so offered would purchase at such ~~dividend~~ Sale Price. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever any such rights or ~~other distribution~~warrants are issued, ~~such increase to~~ and shall become effective immediately after the opening of business on the day following the ~~date fixed~~ Record Date for the determination of the stockholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants. To the extent that shares of Common Stock are not delivered after the expiration of such rights or warrants, the Conversion Rate shall be readjusted to the Conversion Rate which would then be in effect had the adjustments made upon the issuance of such rights or warrants been made on the basis of delivery of only the number of shares of Common Stock actually delivered. If such rights or warrants are not so issued, the Conversion Rate shall again be adjusted to be the Conversion Rate which would then be in effect if such Record Date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants had not been fixed. In determining whether any rights or warrants entitle the holders to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at less than such Sale Price, and in determining the aggregate offering price of such shares of Common Stock, there shall be taken into account any consideration received by the Company for such ~~determination~~rights or warrants, the value of such consideration, if other than cash, to be determined by the Board of Directors. (3) In case the Company shall, by dividend or otherwise, distribute to all holders of its Common Stock (excluding any distribution in connection with the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary) any evidences of its indebtedness or assets or rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any of its securities (excluding those referred to in Section 2.07(2) hereof) (any of the foregoing hereinafter in this Section 2.07(3) called the "Distributed Assets or Securities") in an aggregate amount that, combined together with the aggregate amount of any other such distributions to all holders of its Common Stock made within the 12 months preceding the date of payment of such distribution, and in respect of which no adjustment pursuant to this Section 2.07(3) has been made, exceeds 15% of the product of the Market Price on the day preceding the declaration of such distribution times the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such date, then, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted so that the same shall equal the Conversion Rate determined by multiplying the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the date of such distribution by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the Market Price per share of the Common Stock on the Record Date mentioned below, and the denominator shall be the 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, and described in a certificate filed with the Trustee and the Paying Agent) of the Distributed Assets or Securities so distributed applicable to one share of Common Stock. Such adjustment shall become effective immediately after the Record Date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution; provided, however, that no adjustment will be made in respect of any such dividends and distributions that result in the payment of any contingent interest to the Holders; provided, further, that, if the portion of the Distributed Assets or Securities so distributed applicable to one share of Common Stock is (a) equal to or greater than the Sale Price of the Common Stock on the Record Date or (b) the Sale Price of the Common Stock on the Record Date is greater than the fair market value of the Distributed Assets or Securities by less than $1.00, 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 shares of Common Stock, the kind and amount of assets, debt securities, or rights warrants or options the Holder would have received had such Holder converted such CZARS immediately prior to such Record Date. In the event that such distribution is not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall again be adjusted to the Conversion Rate which would then be in effect if such distribution had not been declared. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of Section 2.07(2) or (3), no adjustment shall be made thereunder for any distribution described therein if the Company makes proper provision so that each Holder of a CZARS who converts such CZARS (or any portion thereof) after the Record Date for such distribution shall be entitled to receive upon such conversion, in addition to the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion, the amount and kind of assets or Securities that such Holder would have been entitled to receive if such Holder had, immediately prior to such Record Date, converted such CZARS for Common Stock; provided that, with respect to any Distributed Securities that are convertible, exchangeable or exercisable, the foregoing provision shall only apply to the extent (and so long as) the Distributed Securities receivable upon conversion of such CZARS would be convertible, exchangeable or exercisable, as applicable, without any loss of rights or privileges for a period of at least 60 days following conversion of such CZARS. Upon conversion of the CZARS the Holders shall receive, in addition to the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion, the rights issued under the Company's existing stockholder rights plan and any future stockholder rights plan the Company implements (notwithstanding the occurrence of an event causing such rights to separate from the Common Stock at or prior to the time of conversion). No adjustment pursuant to this Section 2.07 shall be made in connection with such stockholder rights plans. (4) For ~~the~~ purposes of this ~~paragraph (1)~~Section 2.07, the number of shares of Common Stock at any time outstanding shall not include shares held in the treasury of the Company but shall include shares issuable in respect of scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of shares of Common Stock. The Company ~~will~~ shall not pay any dividend or make any distribution on shares of Common Stock held in the treasury of the Company. (2) In case at any time after the Closing Date, the Company shall issue rights or warrants to all holders of its Common Stock (not being available on an equivalent basis to holders of the Debentures upon conversion) entitling them to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at a price per share less than the current market price per share (determined as provided in paragraph (8) of this Section 15.4) of the Common Stock on the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants, the Conversion Rate in effect at the opening of business on the day following the date fixed for such determination shall be increased by dividing such Conversion Rate by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at the close of business on the date fixed for such determination plus the number of shares of Common Stock which the aggregate of the offering price of the total number of shares of Common Stock so offered for subscription or purchase would purchase at such current market price and the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at the close of business on the date fixed for such determination plus the number of shares of Common Stock so offered for subscription or purchase, such increase to become effective immediately after the opening of business on the day following the date fixed for such determination. However, upon the expiration of any right or warrant to purchase Common Stock the issuance of which resulted in an adjustment in the Conversion Rate pursuant to this subsection (2), if any such right or warrant shall expire and shall not have been exercised, the Conversion Rate shall immediately upon such expiration be recomputed and effective immediately upon such expiration be increased to the price which it would have been (but reflecting any other adjustments in the Conversion Rate made pursuant to the provisions of this Section 15.4 after the issuance of such rights or warrants) had the adjustment of the Conversion Rate made upon the issuance of such rights or warrants been made on the basis of offering for subscription or purchase only that number of shares of Common Stock actually purchased upon the exercise of such rights or warrants actually exercised. For the purposes of this paragraph (2), the number of shares of Common Stock at any time outstanding shall not include shares held in the treasury of the Company but will include shares issuable in respect of scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of shares of Common Stock. The Company will not issue any rights or warrants in respect of shares of Common Stock held in the treasury of the Company. (3) In case at any time after the Closing Date, outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be subdivided into a greater number of shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Rate in effect at the opening of business on the day following the day upon which such subdivision becomes effective shall be proportionately increased and, conversely, in case at any time after the date hereof, outstanding shares of Common Stock shall each be combined into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Rate in effect at the opening of business on the day following the day upon which such combination becomes effective shall be proportionately reduced, such increase or reduction, 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. (4) In case at any time after the Closing Date, the Company shall, by dividend or otherwise, distribute to all holders of its Common Stock evidences of its indebtedness or assets (including stock or other securities of the Company or any other issuer, but excluding any rights or warrants referred to in paragraph (2) of this Section 15.4, any dividend or distribution paid exclusively in cash and any dividend or distribution referred to in paragraph (1) of this Section 15.4), the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted so that the same shall equal the rate determined by dividing the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the current market price per share (determined as provided in paragraph (8) of this Section 15.4) of the Common Stock on the date fixed for such determination less the then fair market value (each reference to "fair market value" in this Section 15.4 shall mean the fair market value as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company in good faith, whose determination shall be described in a Board Resolution, a copy of which shall be delivered to each holder of Debentures within ten (10) days of the adoption of the resolution) of the portion of the assets or evidences of indebtedness so distributed applicable to one (1) share of Common Stock and the denominator shall be such current market price per share of the Common Stock, such adjustment to become effective immediately prior to the opening of business on the day following the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution. (5) In case at any time after the Closing Date (A) 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 15.13 applies or as part of a distribution referred to in paragraph (4) of this Section 15.4) and (B)(I) the total of (x) the aggregate amount of such cash distribution, (y) the aggregate amount of any other distributions to all holders of its Common Stock made exclusively in cash within the twelve (12) months preceding the date of payment of such distribution and in respect of which no adjustment pursuant to this paragraph (5) or paragraph (6) of this Section 15.4 has been made and (z) the aggregate of any cash plus the fair market value of other consideration payable in respect of any tender offers by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for all or any portion of the Common Stock concluded within the twelve (12) months preceding the date of payment of such distribution and in respect of which no adjustment pursuant to this paragraph (5) or paragraph (6) of this Section 15.4 has been made, exceeds (II) ten percent (10%) of the product of the current market price per share (determined as provided in paragraph (8) of this Section 15.4) of the Common Stock on the date for the determination of holders of shares of Common Stock entitled to receive such distribution times the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such date, then, and in each such case, immediately after the close of business on such date for determination, the Conversion Rate shall be increased so that the same shall equal the rate determined by dividing the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the date fixed for determination of the stockholders entitled to receive such distribution by a fraction (i) the numerator of which shall be equal to such current market price per share on the date fixed for such determination less an amount equal to the quotient of (X) the sum of (I) the total of the amounts referred to in subclauses (B)(I)(x) and (y) of this paragraph (5) and (II) the aggregate of the excess of the amount referred to in subclause (B)(I)(z) of this paragraph (5) for each tender offer so referred to over the aggregate current market price of the shares of Common Stock purchased in such tender offer as of the Expiration Time (as hereinafter defined) for such tender offer divided by (Y) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such date for determination and (ii) the denominator of which shall be equal to such current market price per share on such date for determination. (6) In case at any time after the Closing Date (A) a tender offer made by the Company or any Subsidiary for all or any portion of the Common Stock shall expire and (B)(I) the total of (x) the fair market value of the aggregate consideration required to be paid pursuant to such tender offer (as amended upon the expiration thereof) to stockholders (based on the acceptance (up to any maximum specified in the terms of the tender offer) of Purchased Shares (as defined below)), (y) the aggregate of the cash plus the fair market value, as of the expiration of such tender offer, of consideration payable in respect of any other tender offer, by the Company or any Subsidiary for all or any portion of the Common Stock expiring within the twelve (12) months preceding the expiration of such tender offer and in respect of which no adjustment pursuant to this paragraph (6) or paragraph (5) of this Section 15.4 has been made and (z) the aggregate amount of any distributions to all holders of the Company's Common Stock made exclusively in cash within twelve (12) months preceding the expiration of such tender offer and in respect of which no adjustment pursuant to this paragraph (6) or paragraph (5) of this Section 15.4 has been made, exceeds (II) ten percent (10%) of the product of the current market price per share of the Common Stock (determined as provided in paragraph (8) of this Section 15.4) on the date of the last time (the "Expiration Time") tenders could have been made pursuant to such tender offer (as it may be amended) times the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (including any tendered shares) on the Expiration Time, then, and in each such case, immediately prior to the opening of business on the day after the date of the Expiration Time, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted so that the same shall equal the price determined by dividing the Conversion Rate immediately prior to the close of business on the date of the Expiration Time by a fraction (i) the numerator of which shall be equal to (a) the product of (I) such current market price per share on the date of the Expiration Time and (II) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (including any tendered shares) as of the Expiration Time less (b) the total of the amounts referred to in Clause (B)(I) of this paragraph (6), and (ii) the denominator of which shall be equal to the product of (a) such current market price per share on the date of the Expiration Time and (b) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (including any tendered shares) as of the Expiration Time less the number 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"). (7) The reclassification of Common Stock into securities other than Common Stock (other than any reclassification upon a consolidation or merger to which Section 15.13 applies) shall be deemed to involve (a) a distribution of such securities other than Common Stock to all holders of Common Stock (and the effective date of such reclassification shall be deemed to be "the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution" and "the date fixed for such determination" within the meaning of paragraph (4) of this Section 15.4), and (b) a subdivision or combination, as the case may be, of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such reclassification into the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately thereafter (and the effective date of such reclassification shall be deemed to be "the day upon which such subdivision becomes effective" or "the day upon which such combination becomes effective", as the case may be, and "the day upon which such subdivision or combination becomes effective" within the meaning of paragraph (3) of this Section 15.4). (8) For the purpose of any computation under paragraph (2), (4), (5) or (6) of this Section 15.4, the current market price per share of Common Stock on any date shall be calculated by the Company and be deemed to be the average of the daily Closing Price per share of Common Stock for the five (5) consecutive Trading Days before, and ending not later than, the earlier of (i) the day in question and (ii) the day before the "ex" date with respect to the issuance or distribution requiring such computation. For purposes of this paragraph, the term "'ex' date", when used with respect to any issuance or distribution, means the first date on which the Common Stock trades regular way on the applicable securities exchange or in the applicable securities market without the right to receive such issuance or distribution. (9) The Company may make such increases in the Conversion Rate, for the remaining term of the Debentures or any shorter term, in addition to those required by paragraphs (1), (2), (3), (4), (5) and (6) of this Section 15.4, as it considers to be advisable in order to avoid or diminish any income tax to any holders of shares of Common Stock resulting from any dividend or distribution of stock or issuance of rights or warrants to purchase or subscribe for stock or from any event treated as such for income tax purposes or for any other reasons.

The Conversion Rate shall be ~~subject to adjustments~~ adjusted from time to time by the Company as follows: (1) In case ~~at any time after the Closing Date~~ the Company shall (a) pay a dividend, or make a ~~dividend or other distribution on any class of Capital Stock of the Company (other than the Series C Preferred Stock)~~ distribution, exclusively in shares of its Common Stock or other capital stock, on its Common Stock; (b) subdivide its outstanding Common Stock into a greater number of shares; (c) combine its outstanding Common Stock into a smaller number of shares; or (d) reclassify its Common Stock, the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the effective date for the adjustment pursuant to this Section 2.07(1), as described below, shall be adjusted so that the Holder of any Notes thereafter surrendered for conversion shall be entitled to receive 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 Notes been converted immediately prior to such effective date. If any dividend or distribution of the type described in clause (a) above is not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall again be adjusted to the Conversion Rate which would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared. An adjustment made pursuant to this Section 2.07(1) shall become effective immediately after the applicable Record Date in the case of a dividend and shall become effective immediately after the applicable effective date in the case of subdivision, combination or reclassification of the Company’s Common Stock. (2) In case the Company shall issue rights or warrants to all holders of its Common Stock entitling them (for a period expiring within 60 days after the date of issuance of such rights or warrants) to subscribe for or purchase Common Stock at a price per share less than the ~~opening~~ Market Price per share of ~~business~~ Common Stock on the ~~day following the date~~ Record Date fixed for ~~the~~ determination of stockholders entitled to receive such ~~dividend~~ rights or ~~other distribution~~ warrants, the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after such Record Date shall be ~~increased by dividing such~~ adjusted so that the same shall equal the Conversion Rate determined by multiplying the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after such Record Date by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at on such Record Date plus the ~~close~~ number of ~~business on the date fixed~~ additional shares of Common Stock offered for ~~such determination~~ subscription or purchase, and of which the denominator shall be the ~~sum of such~~ number of shares ~~and~~ of Common Stock outstanding on such Record Date plus the number of shares which the aggregate offering price of the total number of shares ~~constituting~~ so offered would purchase at such ~~dividend~~ Market Price. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever any such rights or ~~other distribution~~warrants are issued, ~~such increase to~~ and shall become effective immediately after the opening of business on the day following the date fixed for such determination.

(2) In case at any time after the Closing Date, the Company shall issue rights or warrants to all holders of its Common Stock (not being available on an equivalent basis to holders of the Debentures upon conversion) entitling them to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at a price per share less than the current market price per share (determined as provided in paragraph (8) of this Section 15.4) of the Common Stock on the date fixed Record Date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants, . To the Conversion Rate in effect at the opening of business on the day following the date fixed for such determination shall be increased by dividing such Conversion Rate by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of extent that shares of Common Stock outstanding at the close of business on the date fixed for such determination plus the number of shares of Common Stock which the aggregate of the offering price of the total number of shares of Common Stock so offered for subscription or purchase would purchase at such current market price and the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at the close of business on the date fixed for such determination plus the number of shares of Common Stock so offered for subscription or purchase, such increase to become effective immediately are not delivered after ~~the opening of business on the day following the date fixed for such determination. However, upon~~ the expiration of ~~any right~~ such rights or warrant to purchase Common Stock the issuance of which resulted in an adjustment in the Conversion Rate pursuant to this subsection (2), if any such right or warrant shall expire and shall not have been exercisedwarrants, the Conversion Rate shall ~~immediately upon such expiration~~ be ~~recomputed and effective immediately upon such expiration be increased~~ readjusted to ~~the price which it would have been (but reflecting any other adjustments in~~ the Conversion Rate ~~made pursuant to the provisions of this Section 15.4 after the issuance of such rights or warrants)~~ which would then be in effect had the ~~adjustment of the Conversion Rate~~ adjustments made upon the issuance of such rights or warrants been made on the basis of ~~offering for subscription or purchase~~ delivery of only ~~that~~ the number of shares of Common Stock actually ~~purchased upon the exercise of~~ delivered. If such rights or warrants ~~actually exercised. For the purposes of this paragraph (2)~~are not so issued, the ~~number~~ Conversion Rate shall again be adjusted to be the Conversion Rate which would then be in effect if such Record Date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants had not been fixed. In determining whether any rights or warrants entitle the holders to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at ~~any time outstanding shall not include shares held~~ less than such Market Price, and in determining the ~~treasury~~ aggregate offering price of ~~the Company but will include shares issuable in respect of scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of~~ such shares of Common Stock~~.

(3) In case at any time after the Closing Date, outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be subdivided into a greater number of shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Rate in effect at the opening of business on the day following the day upon which such subdivision becomes effective shall be proportionately increased and, conversely, in case at any time after the date hereof, outstanding shares of Common Stock shall each be combined into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Rate in effect at the opening of business on the day following the day upon which such combination becomes effective shall be proportionately reduced, such increase or reduction, 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. (4) In case at any time after the Closing Date, the Company shall, by dividend or otherwise, distribute to all holders of its Common Stock (excluding any distribution in connection with the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary) any evidences of its indebtedness or assets ~~(including stock~~ or ~~other securities of the Company or any other issuer, but excluding any~~ rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any of its securities (excluding those referred to in ~~paragraph~~ Section 2.07(2) or (24) hereof) (any of the foregoing hereinafter in this Section 2.07(3) called the “Distributed Assets or Securities”) in an aggregate amount that, combined together with the aggregate amount of any other such distributions to all holders of its Common Stock made within the 12 months preceding the date of payment of such distribution, and in respect of which no adjustment pursuant to this Section 2.07(3) has been made, exceeds 15% of the product of the Market Price on the Trading Day immediately preceding the declaration of such distribution and the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such date, then, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted so that the same shall equal the Conversion Rate determined by multiplying the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the Record Date mentioned below by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the Market Price per share of the Common Stock on such Record Date, and the denominator shall be the 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, and described in a certificate filed with the Trustee and the Paying Agent) of ~~this Section 15.4~~the Distributed Assets or Securities so distributed applicable to one share of Common Stock. Such adjustment shall become effective immediately after the Record Date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution; provided, ~~any~~ however, that, if (a) the Fair Market Value of the portion of the Distributed Assets or Securities so distributed applicable to one share of Common Stock is equal to or greater than the Market Price of the Common Stock on the Record Date or (b) the Market Price of the Common Stock on the Record Date is greater than the Fair Market Value of such Distributed Assets or Securities by less than $1.00, 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 shares of Common Stock, the kind and amount of assets, debt securities, or rights, warrants or options the Holder would have received had such Holder converted such Notes immediately prior to such Record Date. In the event that such distribution is not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall again be adjusted to the Conversion Rate which would then be in effect if such distribution had not been declared. (4) In case the Company shall, by dividend or ~~distribution paid exclusively in cash and any dividend~~ otherwise, distribute to all or ~~distribution referred to in paragraph (1)~~ substantially all holders of ~~this Section 15.4)~~outstanding shares of its Common Stock distributions consisting of Cash, then the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted so that the same shall equal the rate determined by ~~dividing~~ multiplying the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the ~~date fixed~~ Record Date for ~~the determination of stockholders entitled to receive~~ such distribution by a fraction of ~~which~~ which: (A) the numerator shall be the ~~current market price~~ Market Price per share (determined as provided in paragraph (8) of this Section 15.4) of the Common Stock on the date fixed for such determination less the then fair market value (each reference to "fair market value" in this Section 15.4 shall mean the fair market value as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company in good faith, whose determination shall be described in a Board Resolution, a copy of which shall be delivered to each holder of Debentures within ten (10) days of the adoption of the resolution) of the portion of the assets or evidences of indebtedness so distributed applicable to one (1) share of Common Stock and the denominator shall be such current market price per share of the Common Stock, such adjustment to become effective immediately prior to the opening of business on the day following the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution. (5) In case at any time after the Closing Date (A) 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 15.13 applies or as part of a distribution referred to in paragraph (4) of this Section 15.4) and (B)(I) the total of (x) the aggregate amount of such cash distribution, (y) the aggregate amount of any other distributions to all holders of its Common Stock made exclusively in cash within the twelve (12) months preceding the date of payment of such distribution and in respect of which no adjustment pursuant to this paragraph (5) or paragraph (6) of this Section 15.4 has been made and (z) the aggregate of any cash plus the fair market value of other consideration payable in respect of any tender offers by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for all or any portion of the Common Stock concluded within the twelve (12) months preceding the date of payment of such distribution and in respect of which no adjustment pursuant to this paragraph (5) or paragraph (6) of this Section 15.4 has been made, exceeds (II) ten percent (10%) of the product of the current market price per share (determined as provided in paragraph (8) of this Section 15.4) of the Common Stock on the date for the determination of holders of shares of Common Stock entitled to receive such distribution times the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such date, then, and in each such case, immediately after the close of business on such date for determination, the Conversion Rate shall be increased so that the same shall equal the rate determined by dividing the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the date fixed for determination of the stockholders entitled to receive such distribution by a fraction (i) the numerator of which shall be equal to such current market price per share on the date fixed for such determination less an amount equal to the quotient of (X) the sum of (I) the total of the amounts referred to in subclauses (B)(I)(x) and (y) of this paragraph (5) and (II) the aggregate of the excess of the amount referred to in subclause (B)(I)(z) of this paragraph (5) for each tender offer so referred to over the aggregate current market price of the shares of Common Stock purchased in such tender offer as of the Expiration Time (as hereinafter defined) for such tender offer divided by (Y) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such date for determination and (ii) the denominator of which shall be equal to such current market price per share on such date for determination. (6) In case at any time after the Closing Date (A) a tender offer made by the Company or any Subsidiary for all or any portion of the Common Stock shall expire and (B)(I) the total of (x) the fair market value of the aggregate consideration required to be paid pursuant to such tender offer (as amended upon the expiration thereof) to stockholders (based on the acceptance (up to any maximum specified in the terms of the tender offer) of Purchased Shares (as defined below)), (y) the aggregate of the cash plus the fair market value, as of the expiration of such tender offer, of consideration payable in respect of any other tender offer, by the Company or any Subsidiary for all or any portion of the Common Stock expiring within the twelve (12) months preceding the expiration of such tender offer and in respect of which no adjustment pursuant to this paragraph (6) or paragraph (5) of this Section 15.4 has been made and (z) the aggregate amount of any distributions to all holders of the Company's Common Stock made exclusively in cash within twelve (12) months preceding the expiration of such tender offer and in respect of which no adjustment pursuant to this paragraph (6) or paragraph (5) of this Section 15.4 has been made, exceeds (II) ten percent (10%) of the product of the current market price per share of the Common Stock (determined as provided in paragraph (8) of this Section 15.4) on the date of the last time (the "Expiration Time") tenders could have been made pursuant to such tender offer (as it may be amended) times the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (including any tendered shares) on the Expiration Time, then, and in each such case, immediately prior to the opening of business on the day after the date of the Expiration Time, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted so that the same shall equal the price determined by dividing the Conversion Rate immediately prior to the close of business on the date of the Expiration Time by a fraction (i) the numerator of which shall be equal to (a) the product of (I) such current market price per share on the date of the Expiration Time and (II) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (including any tendered shares) as of the Expiration Time less (b) the total of the amounts referred to in Clause (B)(I) of this paragraph (6)Record Date, and (iiB) the denominator of which shall be equal to the product of (a) such current market price per share on the date of the Expiration Time and (b) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (including any tendered shares) as of the Expiration Time less the number 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"). (7) The reclassification of Common Stock into securities other than Common Stock (other than any reclassification upon a consolidation or merger to which Section 15.13 applies) shall be deemed to involve (a) a distribution of such securities other than Common Stock to all holders of Common Stock (and the effective date of such reclassification shall be deemed to be "the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution" and "the date fixed for such determination" within the meaning of paragraph (4) of this Section 15.4), and (b) a subdivision or combination, as the case may be, of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such reclassification into the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately thereafter (and the effective date of such reclassification shall be deemed to be "the day upon which such subdivision becomes effective" or "the day upon which such combination becomes effective", as the case may be, and "the day upon which such subdivision or combination becomes effective" within the meaning of paragraph (3) of this Section 15.4). (8) For the purpose of any computation under paragraph (2), (4), (5) or (6) of this Section 15.4, the current market price Market Price per share of Common Stock on ~~any date shall be calculated by~~ such Record Date less the ~~Company and be deemed to be the average of the daily Closing Price~~ amount per share of Common Stock for the five (5) consecutive Trading Days before, and ending not later than, the earlier of (i) the day in question and (ii) the day before the "ex" date with respect to the issuance or distribution requiring such computation. For purposes of this paragraph, the term "'ex' date", when used with respect to any issuance or distribution, means the first date on which the Common Stock trades regular way on the applicable securities exchange or in the applicable securities market without the right to receive such issuance or distribution. (9) The Company may make such increases in the Conversion Rate, for the remaining term of the Debentures or any shorter term, in addition to those required by paragraphs (1), (2), (3), (4), (5) and (6) of this Section 15.4, as it considers to be advisable in order to avoid or diminish any income tax to any holders of shares of Common Stock resulting from any dividend or distribution of stock or issuance of rights or warrants to purchase or subscribe for stock or from any event treated as such for income tax purposes or for any other reasons.such

The Conversion Rate shall be ~~subject to adjustments~~ adjusted from time to time by the Company as follows: (1i) In case ~~at any time after the Closing Date~~ the Company shall pay or make a dividend or other distribution on ~~any class of Capital~~ the Common Stock ~~of the Company (other than the Series C Preferred Stock)~~ in ~~shares of its~~ Common Stock, the Conversion ~~Rate~~ Rate, as in effect at the opening of business on the day following the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or other ~~distribution~~ distribution, shall be increased by dividing such Conversion Rate by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at the close of business on the date fixed for such determination and the denominator shall be the sum of such number of shares and the total number of shares constituting such dividend or other distribution, such increase to become effective immediately after the opening of business on the day following the date fixed for such determination. For the purposes of this ~~paragraph (1~~Section 1.10(g)(i), the number of shares of Common Stock at any time outstanding shall not include shares held in ~~the~~ treasury of by the Company but shall include any shares issuable in respect of any scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of shares of Common Stock.

However, upon the expiration of any right or warrant to purchase Common Stock the issuance of which resulted in an adjustment in the Conversion Rate pursuant to this subsection (2), if any such right or warrant shall expire and shall not have been exercised, the Conversion Rate shall immediately upon such expiration be recomputed and effective immediately upon such expiration be increased to the price which it would have been (but reflecting any other adjustments in the Conversion Rate made pursuant to the provisions of this Section 15.4 after the issuance of such rights or warrants) had the adjustment of the Conversion Rate made upon the issuance of such rights or warrants been made on the basis of offering for subscription or purchase only that number of shares of Common Stock actually purchased upon the exercise of such rights or warrants actually exercised. For the purposes of this ~~paragraph (2~~Section 1.10(g)(ii), the number of shares of Common Stock at any time outstanding shall not include shares held in ~~the~~ treasury of by the Company but ~~will~~ shall include any shares issuable in respect of any scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of shares of Common Stock.

(3iii) In case ~~at any time after the Closing Date,~~ outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be subdivided or split into a greater number of shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Rate in effect at the opening of business on the day following the day upon which such subdivision or split becomes effective shall be proportionately ~~increased~~ increased, and, conversely, in case ~~at any time after the date hereof,~~ outstanding shares of Common Stock shall each be combined into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Rate in effect at the opening of business on the day following the day upon which such combination becomes effective shall be proportionately reduced, such increase or reduction, as the case may be, to become effective immediately after the opening of business on the day following the day upon which such ~~subdivision~~ subdivision, split or combination becomes effective. (4iv) In case ~~at any time after the Closing Date,~~ the Company shall, by dividend or otherwise, distribute to all ~~holders~~ Holders of its Common Stock evidences of its ~~indebtedness or assets (including stock~~ indebtedness, shares of capital stock, securities, cash or other ~~securities of the Company or any other issuer,~~ property (but excluding any ~~rights~~ rights, options or warrants referred to in ~~paragraph (2~~Section 1.10(g)(ii) of this ~~Section 15.4~~Section, any dividend or distribution paid exclusively in cash and any dividend or distribution referred to in ~~paragraph (1) of this~~ Section ~~15.4~~1.10(g)(i)), the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted ~~so that the same shall equal the rate determined~~ by dividing the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the ~~current market price~~ Current Market Price per share ~~(determined as provided in paragraph (8) of this Section 15.4)~~ of the Common Stock on the date fixed for such determination less the then fair market value (~~each reference to "fair market value" in this Section 15.4 shall mean the fair market value~~ as determined by the Board of ~~Directors of the Company in good faith~~Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive and described in a Board Resolution~~, a copy of which shall be delivered to each holder of Debentures within ten (10~~) ~~days of the adoption of the resolution)~~ on such date of the portion of the ~~assets or~~ evidences of ~~indebtedness~~ indebtedness, shares of capital stock, securities, cash or other property so distributed applicable to one ~~(1)~~ share of Common Stock and the denominator shall be such ~~current market price~~ Current Market Price per share of the Common Stock, such adjustment to become effective immediately prior to the opening of business on the day following the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution; provided, however, that in the event that the Company makes a distribution to all Holders of its Common Stock consisting of capital stock of, or similar equity interests in, a subsidiary of the Company, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted by dividing the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the Spin-off Market Price per share of the Common Stock on the date fixed for such determination less the Spin-off Market Price per share or similar equity interest of the subsidiary of the Company on such date and the denominator shall be the Spin-off Market Price per share of the Common Stock, such adjustment to become effective 10 trading days after the effective date of such distribution of capital stock of, or similar equity interest in, a subsidiary or other business unit of the Company. In any case in which this Section 1.10(g)(iv) is applicable, Sections 1.10(g)(i) and (ii) shall not be applicable. (5v) In case ~~at any time after the Closing Date (A)~~ the Company shall, (I) by dividend or otherwise, distribute to all ~~holders~~ Holders of its Common Stock cash (excluding (i) any cash that is distributed ~~upon a merger or consolidation~~ in an event to which Section ~~15.13~~ 1.10(h)(iv) applies or (ii) cash that is distributed as part of a distribution referred to in ~~paragraph (4~~Section 1.10(g)(iv)) ~~of this Section 15.4) and (B)(I) the total of (x) the~~ in an aggregate amount ~~of such cash distribution~~that, combined together with (yII) the aggregate amount of any other distributions to all ~~holders~~ Holders of its Common Stock made exclusively in cash within the ~~twelve (12) months preceding~~ quarterly fiscal period containing the date of payment of such distribution and in respect of which no adjustment pursuant to this ~~paragraph (5~~Section 1.10(g)(v) or ~~paragraph (6~~Section 1.10(g)(vi) ~~of this Section 15.4~~ has been made and (zIII) the aggregate of any cash plus the fair market value of any securities or other property, as of the expiration of the applicable tender or exchange offer referred to below (as determined by the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive and described in a Board Resolution), of consideration payable in respect of any tender ~~offers~~ or exchange offer (other than consideration payable in respect of any odd-lot tender offer) by the Company or any of its ~~Subsidiaries~~ subsidiaries for all or any portion of the Common Stock concluded within the ~~twelve (12) months preceding~~ quarterly fiscal period containing the date of payment of ~~such~~ the distribution described in clause (I) above and in respect of which no adjustment pursuant to this ~~paragraph (5~~Section 1.10(g)(v) or ~~paragraph (6~~Section 1.10(g)(vi) ~~of this Section 15.4~~ has been made, exceeds ~~(II) ten percent (10%) of~~ the product of ~~the current market price per share~~ $0.13 (~~determined as provided in paragraph (8) of this Section 15.4) of the Common Stock~~ appropriately adjusted from time to time for any stock dividends on ~~the date for the determination of holders of shares~~ or subdivisions or combinations of Common ~~Stock entitled to receive such distribution times~~ Stock) multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such date, then, and in each such case, immediately after the close of business on such date for determination, the Conversion Rate shall be increased so that the same shall equal the rate determined by dividing the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the date fixed for determination of the stockholders entitled to receive such distribution by a fraction (i) the numerator of which shall be equal to ~~such current market price~~ the Current Market Price per share of the Common Stock on the date fixed for such determination plus $0.13 (appropriately adjusted from time to time for any stock dividends on or subdivisions or combination of Common Stock) less an amount equal to the quotient of (Xx) the ~~sum of~~ combined amount distributed or payable in the transactions described in clauses (I~~) the total of the amounts referred to in subclauses~~ ), (~~B)(I)(x~~II) and (yIII) ~~of this paragraph (5)~~ above and (II) the aggregate of the excess of the amount referred to in subclause (B)(I)(z) of this paragraph (5) for each tender offer so referred to over the aggregate current market price of the shares of Common Stock purchased in such tender offer as of the Expiration Time (as hereinafter defined) for such tender offer divided by (Yy) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such date for determination and (ii) the denominator of which shall be equal to ~~such current market price~~ the Current Market Price per share of the Common Stock on such date for determination. (6vi) In case ~~at any time after the Closing Date~~ (AI) a tender or exchange offer made by the Company or any ~~Subsidiary~~ subsidiary of the Company for all or any portion of the Common Stock (other than consideration payable in respect of any odd-lot tender offer) shall expire and ~~(B)(I) the total of (x) the fair market value of the aggregate consideration required to be paid pursuant to~~ such tender or exchange offer (as amended upon the expiration thereof) shall require the payment to stockholders (based on the acceptance (up to any maximum specified in the terms of the tender or exchange offer) of Purchased ~~Shares~~ Shares) of an aggregate consideration having a fair market value (as ~~defined below))~~determined by the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive and described in a Board Resolution) that combined together with (yII) the aggregate of the cash plus the fair market ~~value~~value (as determined by the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive and described in a Board Resolution), as of the expiration of such tender or exchange offer, of consideration payable in respect of any other tender or exchange offer (other than consideration payable in respect of any odd-lot tender offer, ) by the Company or any ~~Subsidiary~~ subsidiary of the Company for all or any portion of the Common Stock expiring within the ~~twelve (12) months preceding~~ quarterly fiscal period containing the expiration of such tender or exchange offer and in respect of which no adjustment pursuant to ~~this paragraph (6~~Section 1.10(g)(v) or ~~paragraph (5) of~~ this Section ~~15.4~~ 1.10(g)(vi) has been made and (zIII) the aggregate amount of any distributions to all ~~holders~~ Holders of the Company's Common Stock made exclusively in cash within ~~twelve (12) months preceding~~ the quarterly fiscal period containing the expiration of such tender or exchange offer and in respect of which no adjustment pursuant to ~~this paragraph (6~~Section 1.10(g)(v) or ~~paragraph (5) of~~ this Section ~~15.4~~ 1.10(g)(vi) has been made, exceeds ~~(II) ten percent (10%) of~~ the ~~product of the current market price~~ Current Market Price per share of ~~the~~ Common Stock ~~(determined as provided in paragraph (8) of this Section 15.4)~~ on the ~~date of~~ Trading Day next succeeding the last time (the "Expiration Time") tenders could have been made pursuant to such tender or exchange offer (as it may be amended~~) times the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (including any tendered shares) on the Expiration Time~~), then, and in each such case, immediately prior to the opening of business on the day after the date of the Expiration Time, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted so that the same shall equal the ~~price~~ rate determined by dividing the Conversion Rate immediately prior to the close of business ~~on the date~~ as of the Expiration Time by a fraction (i) the numerator of which shall be equal to (aA) the product of (I1) ~~such current market price~~ the Current Market Price per share on of the ~~date~~ Common Stock as of the Expiration Time and (II2) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (including any tendered shares) as of the Expiration Time less (bB) the ~~total~~ amount of cash plus the fair market value (determined as aforesaid) of the ~~amounts referred~~ aggregate consideration payable to stockholders based on the transactions described in ~~Clause~~ clauses (~~B)(I~~I), (II) and (III) above (assuming in the case of ~~this paragraph~~ clause (6I) the acceptance, up to any maximum specified in the terms of the tender or exchange offer, of Purchased Shares), and (ii) the denominator of which shall be equal to the product of (aA) ~~such current market price~~ the Current Market Price per share on of the ~~date~~ Common Stock as of the Expiration Time and (bB) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (including any tendered shares) as of the Expiration Time less the number of all shares validly tendered and not withdrawn as of the Expiration Time (the shares deemed so ~~accepted~~ accepted, up to any such maximum, being referred to as the "Purchased Shares"). (7vii) ~~The reclassification of Common Stock into securities other than Common Stock (other than any reclassification upon a consolidation or merger~~ All adjustments to ~~which Section 15.13 applies)~~ the Conversion Rate, shall be ~~deemed~~ calculated to ~~involve (a)~~ the nearest 1/10,000th of a ~~distribution of such securities other than Common Stock to all holders~~ share of Common Stock (~~and~~ or if there is not a nearest 1/10,000th of a share to the ~~effective date~~ next lower 1/10,000th of ~~such reclassification~~ a share). No adjustment in the Conversion Rate shall be ~~deemed~~ required unless such adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least one percent therein; provided, however, that any adjustments which by reason of this subparagraph are not required to be ~~"the date fixed for the determination~~ made because they would have required an increase 26 or decrease of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution" and "the date fixed for such determination" within the meaning of paragraph (4) of this Section 15.4), and (b) a subdivision or combination, as the case may be, of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such reclassification into the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately thereafter (and the effective date of such reclassification less than one percent shall be ~~deemed to be "the day upon which such subdivision becomes effective" or "the day upon which such combination becomes effective", as the case may be,~~ carried forward and ~~"the day upon which such subdivision or combination becomes effective" within the meaning of paragraph (3) of this Section 15.4)~~taken into account in any subsequent adjustment. (~~8) For~~ viii) Notwithstanding the ~~purpose~~ foregoing provisions of ~~any computation under paragraph (2), (4), (5~~Section 1.10(g)(ii) or (6iv), no adjustment shall be made thereunder, nor shall an adjustment be made to the ability of a Holder of a Note to convert, for any distribution described therein if the Holder will otherwise participate in the distribution without conversion of such Holder's Senior Convertible Notes.

For purposes of this paragraph, the term "'ex' date", when used with respect to any issuance or distribution, means the first date on which the Common Stock trades regular way on the applicable securities exchange or in the applicable securities market without the right to receive such issuance or distribution. (9) The Company may make such increases in the Conversion Rate, for the remaining term of the Debentures or any shorter termHolders shall receive, in addition to ~~those required by paragraphs (1), (2), (3), (4), (5) and (6) of this Section 15.4, as it considers to be advisable in order to avoid or diminish any income tax to any holders of shares of~~ the Common Stock ~~resulting~~ issuable upon such conversion, the rights issued under such stockholder rights plan (notwithstanding the occurrence of an event causing such rights to separate from ~~any dividend~~ the Common Stock at or ~~distribution~~ prior to the time of ~~stock or issuance of rights or warrants to purchase or subscribe for stock or from any event treated as such for income tax purposes or for any other reasons~~conversion).
