The Company shall not be obligated to issue any shares of Common Stock in respect of a Purchase Contract or deliver any certificates therefor to the Holder unless it shall have received payment of the aggregate Purchase Price for the shares of Common Stock to be purchased thereunder in the manner set forth in the Purchase Contract and Pledge Agreement. Each Purchase Contract evidenced hereby and all obligations and rights of the Company and the Holder thereunder, including, without limitation, the rights of the Holders to receive and the obligation of the Company to pay any Contract Adjustment Payments, shall terminate if a Termination Event shall occur.

Upon and after the occurrence of a Termination Event, the Collateral Agent shall release the Convertible Preferred Stock underlying the Pledged Applicable Ownership Interests in Convertible Preferred Stock or the Applicable Ownership Interests in the Treasury Portfolio forming a part of each Corporate Unit from the Pledge. A Corporate Unit shall thereafter represent the right to receive the Convertible Preferred Stock underlying the Applicable Ownership Interest in the Convertible Preferred Stock or the Applicable Ownership Interests in the Treasury Portfolio in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Contract and Pledge Agreement. Under the terms of the Purchase Contract and Pledge Agreement, the Purchase Contract Agent will be entitled to exercise the voting and any other consensual rights pertaining to the Convertible Preferred Stock underlying the Pledged Applicable Ownership Interests in Convertible Preferred Stock, but only to the extent instructed in writing by the Holders.

Except as provided in the Purchase Contract and Pledge Agreement, such Corporate Unit shall not be separable into its constituent parts, and the rights and obligations of the Holder of such Corporate Unit in respect of the Convertible Preferred Stock and Purchase Contract constituting such Corporate Unit may be transferred and exchanged only as a Corporate Unit. Subject to, and in compliance with, the conditions and terms set forth in the Purchase Contract and Pledge Agreement, the Holder of Corporate Units may effect a Collateral Substitution. From and after such Collateral Substitution, each Unit for which a Treasury Security secures the Holder’s obligations under the Purchase Contract shall be referred to as a “Treasury Unit”, and each Unit for which Pledged Cash secures the Holder’s obligations under the Purchase Contract shall be referred to as a “Cash Settled Units”.

The Holder further covenants and agrees that, to the extent and in the manner provided in the Purchase Contract and Pledge Agreement, but subject to the terms thereof, any payments with respect the Convertible Preferred Stock underlying the Pledged Applicable Ownership Interests in Convertible Preferred Stock or the Proceeds of the Applicable Ownership Interests in the Treasury Portfolio, as the case may be, on the Purchase Contract Settlement Date equal to the aggregate Purchase Price for the related Purchase Contracts shall be paid by the Collateral Agent to the Company in satisfaction of such Holder’s obligations under the related Purchase Contracts and such Holder shall acquire no right, title or interest in such payments. Subject to certain exceptions, the provisions of the Purchase Contract and Pledge Agreement may be amended with the consent of the Holders of a majority of the Purchase Contracts. The Purchase Contracts shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to the conflicts of law provisions thereof to the extent a different law would govern as a result. The Purchase Contracts shall not, prior to the settlement thereof, entitle the Holder to any of the rights of a holder of shares of Common Stock or Common Stock.
