If a Holder of a repurchased Security is paid in shares of Common Stock, the Company shall pay any documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer tax due on such issue of Common Stock. However, the Holder shall pay any such tax which is due because the Holder requests the Common Stock to be issued in a name other than the Holder’s name. The Trustee (or other paying agent appointed by the Company) may refuse to deliver the certificates representing the shares of Common Stock being issued in a name other than the Holder’s name until the Trustee (or other paying agent appointed by the Company) receives a sum sufficient to pay any tax which will be due because the shares of Common Stock are to be issued in a name other than the Holder’s name.

(iii) if the Company elects to pay the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, or a specified percentage thereof, in shares of Common Stock, that the conditions to such manner of payment set forth in this clause (f) have been or will be complied with, and
(iv) whether the Company desires the Trustee to give the Fundamental Change Company Notice required by clause (c) of Section 11.0812.08. The Company’s right to exercise its election to repurchase Securities through the issuance of shares of Common Stock shall be conditioned upon:
(i) the Company’s giving a timely Fundamental Change Company Notice containing an election to purchase all or a specified percentage of the Securities with shares of Common Stock as provided herein;
(ii) the registration of such shares of Common Stock under the Securities Act and, if required, the Exchange Act;
(iii) the listing of such shares of Common Stock on a United States national securities exchange or the quotation of such shares of Common Stock in an inter-dealer quotation system of any registered United States national securities association, in each case, if the Common Stock is then listed on a national securities exchange or quoted in an inter-dealer quotation system;
(iv) any necessary qualification or registration of such shares of Common Stock under applicable state securities laws or the availability of an exemption from such qualification and registration; and
(v) the receipt by the Trustee of an (A) Officers’ Certificate stating that the terms of the issuance of the shares of Common Stock are in conformity with this Indenture, (B) an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the shares of Common Stock to be issued by the Company in payment of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price in respect of the Securities have been duly authorized and, when issued and delivered pursuant to the terms of this Indenture in payment of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price in respect of the Securities, will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and (cC) an Officer’s Certificate, stating that the conditions to the issuance of the shares of Common Stock have been satisfied. Such Officers’ Certificate shall also set forth the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued for each $1,000 principal amount of Securities upon their Stated Maturity and the Closing Price of a share of Common Stock on each Trading Day during the period commencing on the fifth Trading Day immediately preceding but ending on the third Business Day prior to the applicable Fundamental Change Repurchase Date. If the foregoing conditions are not satisfied prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date and the Company has elected to repurchase the Securities through the issuance of shares of Common Stock, the Company shall pay the entire Fundamental Change Repurchase Price of the Securities in cash. Promptly after determination of the actual number of shares of Common Stock to be issued upon repurchase of Securities, the Company shall be required to disseminate a press release through Dow Xxxxx & Company, Inc. or Bloomberg Business News containing this information or publish the information on the Company’s web site or through such other public medium as the Company may use at that time. All shares of Common Stock delivered upon repurchase of the Securities shall be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. If a Holder of a repurchased Security is paid in shares of Common Stock, the Company shall pay any documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer tax due on such issue of Common Stock. However, the Holder shall pay any such tax which is due because the Holder requests the Common Stock to be issued in a name other than the Holder’s name. The Trustee (or other paying agent appointed by the Company) may refuse to deliver the certificates representing the shares of Common Stock being issued in a name other than the Holder’s name until the Trustee (or other paying agent appointed by the Company) receives a sum sufficient to pay any tax which will be due because the shares of Common Stock are to be issued in a name other than the Holder’s name. Nothing herein shall preclude any income tax withholding required by law or regulations.
