Optional Redemption of Notes (a) The Issuer shall have the right to redeem the Notes at its option and in its sole discretion at any time or from time to time prior to the Maturity Date, in whole or in part. Prior to the Par Call Date, the redemption price (“Redemption Price”) will equal the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed or (ii) as determined by the Quotation Agent, the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon (not including any portion of such payments of interest accrued as of the Redemption Date) that would be due if the Notes matured on the Par Call Date, discounted to the Redemption Date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Adjusted Treasury Rate plus 25 basis points, plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the Redemption Date; provided, however, that if the Redemption Date falls after a Record Date and on or prior to the corresponding interest payment date, the Issuer will pay the full amount of accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on such interest payment date to the Holder of record at the close of business on the corresponding Record Date (instead of the Holder surrendering its Notes for redemption). If the Notes are redeemed on or after the Par Call Date, the Redemption Price will be equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed plus unpaid interest, if any, accrued thereon to, but excluding, the Redemption Date.
(b) The Issuer shall not redeem the Notes pursuant to Section 3.01(a) hereof on any date if the principal amount of the Notes has been accelerated, and such an acceleration has not been rescinded or cured on or prior to such date (except in the case of an acceleration resulting from a default by the Issuer in the payment of the Redemption Price with respect to the Notes to be redeemed).
Optional Redemption of the Notes (a) The Company may redeem at its election, at any time or from time to time, some or all of the Notes before they mature at a redemption price equal to the sum of (x) 100% of the principal amount of Notes redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the date of redemption (the “Redemption Date”), subject to the rights of Holders of record of Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date plus (y) the Make-Whole Premium.
(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Notes are redeemed on or after the First Par Call Date, the redemption price will not include the Make-Whole Premium.
(c) Neither the Trustee nor any Paying Agent shall have any obligation to calculate or verify the calculation of the Make-Whole Premium.
(d) The provisions of Section 3.01 through Section 3.06 of the Base Indenture shall not apply to the Notes, and the following provisions shall apply in lieu thereof:
(i) In the event that the Company chooses to redeem less than all of the Notes, selection of the Notes for redemption will be made by the Trustee:
(A) by a method that complies with the requirements, as certified to the Trustee by the Company, of the principal securities exchange, if any, on which the Notes are listed at such time, and in compliance with the requirements of the relevant clearing system; or
(B) if the Notes are not listed on a securities exchange, or such securities exchange prescribes no method of selection and the Notes are not held through a clearing system or the clearing system prescribes no method of selection, by lot.
(ii) No Notes of a principal amount of $2,000 or less shall be redeemed in part.
(iii) Notice of redemption will be delivered at least 15 but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each Holder of Notes to be redeemed, the Trustee and the Paying Agent; provided that, if the redemption notice is issued in connection with a defeasance of the Notes or satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture governing the Note in accordance with the Indentures, the notice of redemption may be delivered more than 60 calendar days before the date of redemption. If any Note is to be redeemed in part only, then the notice of redemption that relates to such Note must state the portion of the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. A new Note in a principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion thereof will be issued in the name of the Holder thereof upon cancellation of the original Note (or appropriate adjustments to the amount and beneficial interests in a Global Note will be made). On and after the redemption date, interest will cease to accrue on Notes or portions thereof called for redemption as long as the Company has deposited with the Paying Agent funds in satisfaction of the applicable redemption price.
(e) Any redemption or notice of redemption, may, at the Company’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent.
Optional Redemption (A) At any time prior to December 15, 2023, the Company may on any one or more occasions redeem all or a part of the aggregate principal amount of Notes issued under the Indenture, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice, at a redemption price equal to 100.000% of the principal amount of the Notes redeemed, plus (1) the excess of (a) the present value of the Notes to be redeemed at such redemption date of (i) the redemption price of the Notes to be redeemed at December 15, 2023 plus (ii) all required interest payments due on the Notes to be redeemed through December 15, 2023 (excluded accrued but unpaid interest to the redemption date), computed using a discount rate equal to the Treasury Rate (as defined in the Indenture) as of such redemption date plus 50 basis points over (b) the principal amount of the Notes (the “Applicable Premium”) and (2) accrued and unpaid interest to the date of redemption (subject to the rights of Holders of Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest on the relevant Interest Payment Date).
(B) At any time on or after to December 15, 2023, the Company may on any one or more occasions redeem all or a part of the Notes, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes redeemed, plus the Applicable Premium as of, and accrued and unpaid interest to the applicable date of redemption, subject to the rights of Holders on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date.
(C) Unless the Company defaults in the payment of the redemption price, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or portions thereof called for redemption on the applicable redemption date.

Form of Redemption Notice....................................................54 Section 10.03. Notes Payable on Redemption Date.............................................54
Notice of Optional Redemption; Selection of Notes (a) In case the Company exercises its Optional Redemption right to redeem all or, as the case may be, any part of the Notes pursuant to Section 16.01, it shall fix a date for redemption (each, a “Redemption Date”) and it or, at its written request received by the Trustee not less than 5 Business Days prior to the date such Redemption Notice is to be sent (or such shorter period of time as may be acceptable to the Trustee), the Trustee, in the name of and at the expense of the Company, shall deliver or cause to be delivered a notice of such Optional Redemption (a “Redemption Notice”) not less than 35 nor more than 60 Trading Days prior to the Redemption Date to each Holder of Notes so to be redeemed as a whole or in part; provided, however, that if the Company shall give such notice, it shall also give written notice of the Redemption Date to the Trustee, the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee) and the Paying Agent (if other than the Trustee). The Redemption Date must be a Business Day. The Company may not specify a Redemption Date that falls on or after the 31st Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding the Maturity Date.
(b) The Redemption Notice, if delivered in the manner herein provided, shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether or not the Holder receives such notice. In any case, failure to give such Redemption Notice or any defect in the Redemption Notice to the Holder of any Note designated for redemption as a whole or in part shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other Note.
(c) Each Redemption Notice shall specify:
(i) the Redemption Date;
(ii) the Redemption Price;
(iii) that on the Redemption Date, the Redemption Price will become due and payable upon each Note to be redeemed, and that interest thereon, if any, shall cease to accrue on and after the Redemption Date;
(iv) the place or places where such Notes are to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price;
(v) that Holders called (or deemed called) for redemption may surrender their Notes for conversion at any time prior to the close of business on the Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding the Redemption Date;
(vi) the procedures a converting Holder must follow to convert its Notes and the Settlement Method and Specified Dollar Amount, if applicable;
(vii) the Conversion Rate;
(viii) the CUSIP, ISIN or other similar numbers, if any, assigned to such Notes; and
(ix) in case any Note is to be redeemed in part only, the portion of the principal amount thereof to be redeemed and on and after the Redemption Date, upon surrender of such Note, a new Note in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion thereof shall be issued, which principal amount must be $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof. A Redemption Notice shall be irrevocable. An Optional Redemption may not be conditional. The selection of any Note or portion thereof for redemption, the sending of any Redemption Notice, and the deposit of the Redemption Price with the Trustee or a Paying Agent, shall not in any way limit the conversion privilege of any Holder or the Company’s Conversion Obligation with respect to any Note for which the Conversion Date occurs before the Redemption Date.
(d) If the Company elects to redeem fewer than all of the outstanding Notes, the Notes to be redeemed will be selected according to the Depositary’s applicable procedures, in the case of Notes represented by a Global Note, or, in the case of Notes represented by Physical Notes, by lot, on a pro rata basis or by another method the Trustee deems to be appropriate and fair. If the Trustee selects a portion of any Holder’s Notes for partial redemption and such Holder converts a portion of such Notes, the converted portion shall be deemed (so far as may be possible) to be from the portion selected for redemption.
(e) If the Company elects to redeem fewer than all of the outstanding Notes, after giving effect to such redemption, at least $150,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Notes shall be outstanding and not subject to such redemption as of the date the Redemption Notice is delivered.
Payment of Notes Called for Redemption (a) If any Redemption Notice has been given in respect of the Notes in accordance with Section 16.02, the Notes shall become due and payable on the Redemption Date at the place or places stated in the Redemption Notice and at the applicable Redemption Price. On presentation and surrender of the Notes at the place or places stated in the Redemption Notice, the Notes shall be paid and redeemed by the Company at the applicable Redemption Price.
(b) Prior to the open of business on the Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit with the Paying Agent or, if the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company is acting as the Paying Agent, shall segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 7.05 an amount of cash (in immediately available funds if deposited on the Redemption Date), sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of all of the Notes to be redeemed on such Redemption Date. Subject to receipt of funds by the Paying Agent, payment for the Notes to be redeemed shall be made on the Redemption Date for such Notes. The Paying Agent shall, promptly after such payment and upon written demand by the Company, return to the Company any funds in excess of the Redemption Price.
