Redemption of the Notes SECTION 3.01.
Prepayment of Notes (a) The Company at its option may, upon ten days' written notice to the Holders, at any time, prepay all or any part of the principal amount of Notes at a redemption price equal to 101% (or, if the Company shall have paid the fee required by Section 6.18(b), 100%) of the principal amount of Notes so prepaid, together with accrued interest through the date of prepayment; provided, 18 that the redemption price shall be 103% of par plus accrued interest if the Notes are refunded (whether at the time of redemption or maturity) with or in anticipation of funds raised by any financing transaction in which DLJSC has not acted as sole agent or underwriter to the Company (unless DLJSC, in its sole discretion, shall have consented thereto).
(b) The Company shall, promptly upon the receipt by the Company of the Net Cash Proceeds of any Designated Transaction, prepay an aggregate principal amount of Notes equal to the amount of such Net Cash Proceeds, at a redemption price equal to 101% of the principal amount of the Notes so prepaid, together with accrued interest through the date of prepayment; provided, that the redemption price shall be 103% of par plus accrued interest if the Notes are refunded (whether at the time of redemption or maturity) with or in anticipation of funds raised by any financing transaction in which DLJSC has not acted as sole agent or underwriter to the Company (other than a fully underwritten bank financing pursuant to a signed commitment letter containing only such conditions as are usual and customary in such financings and which does not contain any condition relating to the successful syndication of such transaction); and provided, further, that Notes shall be required to be so prepaid only to the extent that Net Cash Proceeds from all Designated Transactions on and after the date hereof exceed $1,000,000.
(c) The Company shall, immediately upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, prepay all Notes then outstanding at a redemption price equal to 103% of the principal amount thereof, together with accrued interest through the date of prepayment.
(d) Any prepayment of the Notes pursuant to Section 2.6(a) shall be in a minimum amount of at least $1,000,000 and multiples of $1,000,000, unless less than $1,000,000 of the Notes remains outstanding, in which case all of the Notes must be prepaid. Any prepayment of the Notes pursuant to Section 2.6(b) shall be in a minimum amount which is a multiple of $1,000 times the number of Holders at the time of such prepayment.
(e) Any partial prepayment shall be made so that the Notes then held by each Holder shall be prepaid in a principal amount which shall bear the same ratio, as nearly as may be, to the total principal amount being prepaid as the principal amount of such Notes held by such Holder shall bear to the aggregate principal amount of all Notes then outstanding. In the 19 event of a partial prepayment, upon presentation of any Note the Company shall execute and deliver to or on the order of the Holder, at the expense of the Company, a new Note in principal amount equal to the remaining outstanding portion of such Note.
Payment of Securities Called for Redemption If notice of redemption has been given as above provided, the Securities or portions of Securities specified in such notice shall become due and payable on the date and at the place stated in such notice at the applicable redemption price, together with interest accrued to the date fixed for redemption, and on and after such date (unless the Company shall default in the payment of such Securities at the redemption price, together with interest accrued to such date) interest on the Securities or portions of Securities so called for redemption shall cease to accrue, and the unmatured coupons, if any, appertaining thereto shall be void and, except as provided in Sections 7.12 and 8.02, such Securities shall cease from and after the date fixed for redemption to be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture, and the Holders thereof shall have no right in respect of such Securities except the right to receive the redemption price thereof and unpaid interest to the date fixed for redemption. On presentation and surrender of such Securities at a place of payment specified in said notice, together with all coupons, if any, appertaining thereto maturing after the date fixed for redemption, said Securities or the specified portions thereof shall be paid and redeemed by the Company at the applicable redemption price, together with interest accrued thereon to the date fixed for redemption; provided that payment of interest becoming due on or prior to the date fixed for redemption shall be payable in the case of Securities with coupons attached thereto, to the Holders of the coupons for such interest upon surrender thereof, and in the case of Registered Securities, to the Holders of such Registered Securities registered as such on the relevant record date subject to the terms and provisions of Sections 2.04 and 2.13 hereof. If any Security called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the principal shall, until paid or duly provided for, bear interest from the date fixed for redemption at the rate of interest or Yield to Maturity (in the case of an Original Issue Discount Security) borne by such Security. If any Security with coupons attached thereto is surrendered for redemption and is not accompanied by all appurtenant coupons maturing after the date fixed for redemption, the surrender of such missing coupon or coupons may be waived by the Company and the Trustee, if there be furnished to each of them such security or indemnity as they may require to save each of them harmless. Upon presentation of any Security of any series redeemed in part only, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to or on the order of the Holder thereof, at the expense of the Company, a new Security or Securities of such series and tenor (with any unmatured coupons attached), of authorized denominations, in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the Security so presented.

(c) Any Defaulted Amounts shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on the relevant payment date but shall accrue interest per annum at the rate borne by the Notes from, and including, such relevant payment date, and such Defaulted Amounts together with such interest thereon shall be paid by the Company, at its election in each case, as provided in clause (i) or (ii) below:
(i) The Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Amounts to the Persons in whose names the Notes (or their respective Predecessor Notes) are registered at the close of business on a special record date for the payment of such Defaulted Amounts, which shall be fixed in the following manner. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of the Defaulted Amounts proposed to be paid on each Note and the date of the proposed payment (which shall be not less than 25 days after the receipt by the Trustee of such notice, unless the Trustee shall consent to an earlier date), and at the same time the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Amounts or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit on or prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such Defaulted Amounts as in this clause provided. Thereupon the Company shall fix a special record date for the payment of such Defaulted Amounts which shall be not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to the date of the proposed payment, and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee in writing of such special record date and the Trustee, in the name and at the expense of the Company, shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Amounts and the special record date therefor to be delivered to each Holder at its address as it appears in the Note Register, or by electronic means to the Depositary in the case of Global Notes, not less than 10 days prior to such special record date. Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Amounts and the special record date therefor having been so delivered, such Defaulted Amounts shall be paid to the Persons in whose names the Notes (or their respective Predecessor Notes) are registered at the close of business on such special record date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to the following clause (ii) of this Section 2.03(c). The Trustee shall have no responsibility whatsoever for the calculation of the Defaulted Amounts.
(ii) The Company may make payment of any Defaulted Amounts in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange or automated quotation system on which the Notes may be listed or designated for issuance, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange or automated quotation system, if, after written notice given by the Company to the Trustee of the proposed payment pursuant to this clause, such manner of payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee.
