If any dividend or distribution described in this clause (i) is declared but not so paid or made, each Fixed Settlement Rate shall be readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors publicly announces its decision not to make such dividend or distribution, to such Fixed Settlement Rate that would be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared.

Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 5.01(a)(iii)(A) shall become effective immediately after the close of business on the Record Date for such dividend or distribution. In the event that such dividend or distribution is not so made, each Fixed Settlement Rate shall be readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors publicly announces its decision not to make such dividend or distribution, to such Fixed Settlement Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared.

(i) If the Company issues Common Stock to all or substantially all of the holders of Common Stock as a dividend or other distribution, or if the Company effects a share split or share combination, then each Fixed Settlement Rate shall be adjusted based on the following formula: SR1 = SR0 x OS1 OS0 where, SR0 = the Fixed Settlement Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the Record Date for such dividend or distribution or immediately prior to the open of business on the Effective Date for such share split or share combination, as the case may be; SR1 = the Fixed Settlement Rate in effect immediately after the close of business on such Record Date or immediately after the open of business on such Effective Date, as the case may be; OS0 = the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the close of business on such Record Date or immediately prior to the open of business on such Effective Date, as the case may be (in either case, prior to giving effect to such event); and OS1 = the number of shares of Common Stock that would be outstanding immediately after, and solely as a result of, such dividend, distribution, share split or share combination. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 5.01(a)(i) will become effective immediately after the close of business on the Record Date for such dividend or distribution, or immediately after the open of business on the Effective Date for such share subdivision or share combination, as the case may be. If any dividend or distribution described in this clause (i) is declared but not so paid or made, each Fixed Settlement Rate shall be readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors publicly announces its decision not to make such dividend or distribution, to such Fixed Settlement Rate that would be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared.
