• Special Mandatory Redemption (a) If the Company does not consummate the Merger on or prior to June 17, 2020 (the “Outside Date”), or if, prior to the Outside Date, the Company notifies the Trustee in writing that the Merger Agreement is terminated or that in the Company’s reasonable judgment the Merger will not be consummated on or prior to the Outside Date (each, a “Special Mandatory Redemption Event”), the Company shall redeem the Notes in whole but not in part at a special mandatory redemption price (the “Special Mandatory Redemption Price”) equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the Special Mandatory Redemption Date (as defined below) (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant Regular Record Date to receive interest due on any Interest Payment Date that is on or prior to the Special Mandatory Redemption Date), in accordance with the applicable provisions set forth herein and in Article 10 of the Base Indenture. (b) Upon the occurrence of a Special Mandatory Redemption Event, the Company shall promptly (but in no event later than 10 Business Days following such Special Mandatory Redemption Event) notify (such notice to include the Officers’ Certificate required by Section 10.2 of the Base Indenture) the Trustee in writing of such event, and the Trustee shall, no later than 5 Business Days following receipt of such notice from the Company, notify the Holders of Notes (such date of notification to the Holders, the “Special Mandatory Redemption Notice Date”) that all of the Notes outstanding will be redeemed on the 3rd Business Day following the Special Mandatory Redemption Notice Date (such date, the “Special Mandatory Redemption Date”) automatically and without any further action by the Holders of Notes, in each case in accordance with the applicable provisions set forth herein and in Article 10 of the Base Indenture, the form of such notice to the Holders of the Notes to be included in such notice to the Trustee. At or prior to 12:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Business Day immediately preceding the Special Mandatory Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit with the Trustee funds sufficient to pay the Special Mandatory Redemption Price for the Notes. If such deposit is made as provided above, the Notes will cease to bear interest on and after the Special Mandatory Redemption Date.

• Mandatory Redemption The Company is not required to make mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes.

• Repurchase Offers In the event that, pursuant to Sections 4.10 and 4.14 hereof, the Company shall be required to commence an offer to all Holders to purchase their respective Notes (a “Repurchase Offer”), it shall follow the procedures specified below. The Repurchase Offer shall remain open for a period of 20 Business Days following its commencement and no longer, except to the extent that a longer period is required by applicable law (the “Offer Period”). No later than five Business Days after the termination of the Offer Period (the “Purchase Date”), the Company shall purchase the principal amount of Notes required to be purchased pursuant to Sections 4.10 and 4.14 hereof (the “Offer Amount”) or, if less than the Offer Amount has been tendered, all Notes tendered in response to the Repurchase Offer. Payment for any Notes so purchased shall be made in the same manner as interest payments are made. If the Purchase Date is on or after an interest record date and on or before the related interest payment date, any accrued and unpaid interest shall be paid to the Person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on such record date, and no additional interest shall be payable to Holders who tender Notes pursuant to the Repurchase Offer. Upon the commencement of a Repurchase Offer, the Company shall send, by first class mail, a notice to the Trustee and each of the Holders, with a copy to the Trustee. The notice shall contain all instructions and materials necessary to enable such Holders to tender Notes pursuant to the Repurchase Offer. The Repurchase Offer shall be made to all Holders. The notice, which shall govern the terms of the Repurchase Offer, shall state: (i) that the Repurchase Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 3.08 and Section 4.10 or Section 4.14 hereof, and the length of time the Repurchase Offer shall remain open; (ii) the Offer Amount, the purchase price and the Purchase Date; (iii) that any Note not tendered or accepted for payment shall continue to accrete or accrue interest and Liquidated Damages, if any; (iv) that, unless the Company defaults in making such payment, any Note (or portion thereof) accepted for payment pursuant to the Repurchase Offer shall cease to accrete or accrue interest and Liquidated Damages, if any, after the Purchase Date; (v) that Holders electing to have a Note purchased pursuant to a Repurchase Offer may elect to have Notes purchased in principal amounts of $2,000 or in integral multiples of $1,000 only; (vi) that Holders electing to have a Note purchased pursuant to any Repurchase Offer shall be required to surrender the Note, with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” on the reverse of the Note completed, or transfer by book-entry transfer, to the Company, the Depositary, if appointed by the Company, or a Paying Agent at the address specified in the notice at least three days before the Purchase Date; (vii) that Holders shall be entitled to withdraw their election if the Company, the Depositary or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, receives, not later than the expiration of the Offer Period, a facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Holder, the principal amount of the Note the Holder delivered for purchase and a statement that such Xxxxxx is withdrawing his election to have such Note purchased; (viii) that, if the aggregate amount of Notes surrendered by Holders exceeds the Offer Amount, the Trustee shall select the Notes to be purchased on a pro rata basis or in accordance with the procedures of the Depositary (with such adjustments as may be deemed appropriate by the Trustee so that only Notes in denominations of $2,000, or integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof, shall be purchased); and (ix) that Holders whose Notes were purchased only in part shall be issued new Notes equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered (or transferred by book-entry transfer). On the Purchase Date, the Company shall, to the extent lawful, accept for payment, on a pro rata basis to the extent necessary, the Offer Amount of Notes (or portions thereof) tendered pursuant to the Repurchase Offer, or if less than the Offer Amount has been tendered, all Notes tendered, and shall deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that such Notes (or portions thereof) were accepted for payment by the Company in accordance with the terms of this Section 3.08. The Company, the Depositary or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, shall promptly (but in any case not later than five days after the Purchase Date) mail or deliver to each tendering Holder an amount equal to the purchase price of Notes tendered by such Holder, as the case may be, and accepted by the Company for purchase, and the Company, shall promptly issue a new Note. The Trustee, upon written request from the Company shall authenticate and mail or deliver such new Note to such Holder, in a principal amount at maturity equal to any unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered. Any Note not so accepted shall be promptly mailed or delivered by the Company to the respective Holder thereof. The Company shall publicly announce the results of the Repurchase Offer as soon as practicable after the Purchase Date. The Company shall comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act, and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent such laws or regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Notes pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer. Other than as specifically provided in this Section 3.08, any purchase pursuant to this Section 3.08 shall be made pursuant to the provisions of Sections 3.01 through 3.06 hereof.

• No Mandatory Redemption The Company shall not be required to make mandatory redemption payments with respect to the Securities.

• Mandatory Redemption at Subscriber’s Election In the event the Company is prohibited from issuing Conversion Shares, or fails to timely deliver Shares on a Delivery Date, or upon the occurrence of any other Event of Default (as defined in this Note or in the Subscription Agreement) or for any reason other than pursuant to the limitations set forth in Section 2.3 hereof, then at the Subscriber's election, the Company must pay to the Subscriber ten (10) business days after request by the Subscriber, at the Subscriber's election, a sum of money in immediately available terms equal to the greater of (i) the product of the outstanding principal amount of the Note designated by the Subscriber multiplied by 120%, or (ii) the product of the number of Conversion Shares otherwise deliverable upon conversion of an amount of Note principal and/or interest designated by the Subscriber (with the date of giving of such designation being a “Deemed Conversion Date”) at the then Conversion Price that would be in effect on the Deemed Conversion Date multiplied by the average of the closing bid prices for the Common Stock for the five consecutive trading days preceding either: (1) the date the Company becomes obligated to pay the Mandatory Redemption Payment, or (2) the date on which the Mandatory Redemption Payment is made in full, whichever is greater, together with accrued but unpaid interest thereon and any liquidated damages then payable (“Mandatory Redemption Payment”). The Mandatory Redemption Payment must be received by the Subscriber on the same date as the Company Shares otherwise deliverable or within ten (10) business days after request, whichever is sooner (“Mandatory Redemption Payment Date”). Upon receipt of the Mandatory Redemption Payment, the corresponding Note principal and interest will be deemed paid and no longer outstanding. Liquidated damages calculated pursuant to Section 2.5(c) hereof, that have been paid or accrued for the twenty (20) day period prior to the actual receipt of the Mandatory Redemption Payment by the Subscriber shall be credited against the Mandatory Redemption Payment.

• Mandatory Repayment The aggregate principal amount of the Loans outstanding on the Maturity Date, together with accrued but unpaid interest thereon, shall be due and payable in full on the Maturity Date.

• 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 five Business Days prior to the Redemption Notice Date (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 written notice of such Optional Redemption (a “Notice of Redemption”) (in all cases, the text of such Notice of Redemption shall be prepared by the Company) not less than 55 nor more than 70 Scheduled Trading Days prior to the Redemption Date to each Holder of Notes so to be redeemed in 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 and the Paying Agent. In the case of any Optional Redemption in part, Holders of Notes not called for Optional Redemption will not be entitled to an increased Conversion Rate for such Notes in accordance with Section 14.03 and Section 16.02(c). The Redemption Date must be a Business Day. (b) The Notice of Redemption, 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 Notice of Redemption or any defect in the Notice of Redemption 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 Notice of Redemption shall specify: (i) the Redemption Date (which must be a Business Day); (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 may surrender their Notes for conversion at any time prior to the close of business on the second Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding the Redemption Date; (vi) the procedures a converting Holder must follow to convert its Notes and the forms and amounts of consideration payable by the Company upon conversion; (vii) the Conversion Rate and, if applicable, the number of Additional Shares added to the Conversion Rate in accordance with Section 14.03; (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 a multiple thereof. A Notice of Redemption shall be irrevocable. (d) If fewer than all of the outstanding Notes are to be redeemed and the Notes to be redeemed are Global Notes, the Notes to be redeemed shall be selected by the Depositary in accordance with the applicable rules and procedures of the Depositary. If fewer than all of the outstanding Notes are to be redeemed and the Notes to be redeemed are not Global Notes, the Trustee shall select the Notes or portions thereof to be redeemed (in principal amounts of $1,000 or multiples thereof) by lot, on a pro rata basis or by another method the Trustee considers to be fair and appropriate. If any Note selected for partial redemption is submitted for conversion in part after such selection, the portion of the Note submitted for conversion shall be deemed (so far as may be possible) to be the portion selected for redemption, subject, in the case of Notes represented by a Global Note, to the Depositary’s applicable procedures. If fewer than all of the outstanding Notes are to be redeemed and the Holder of any Note (or any owner of a beneficial interest in any Global Note) is reasonably not able to determine, before the close of business on the 55th scheduled Trading Day immediately before the relevant Redemption Date, whether such Note or beneficial interest, as applicable, is to be redeemed pursuant to such redemption, then such Holder or owner, as applicable, will be entitled to convert such Note or beneficial interest, as applicable, at any time before the close of business on the second Scheduled Trading Day prior to such Redemption Date, unless the Company defaults in the payment of the Redemption Price pursuant to Section 14.01(b)(v), in which case such Holder or owner, as applicable, will be entitled to convert such Note or beneficial interest, as applicable, until the Redemption Price has been paid or duly provided for, and each such conversion will be deemed to be of a Note called for redemption. The Trustee shall not be obligated to make any determination in connection with the foregoing.

• Repurchase and Redemption Upon timely receipt of notice from the Company that it intends to repurchase or exercise its right of redemption in respect of any of the Deposited Securities, and satisfactory documentation, and only if the Depositary shall have determined that such proposed repurchase or redemption is practicable, the Depositary shall (to the extent practicable) provide to each relevant Holder a notice setting forth the Company’s intention to exercise the repurchase or redemption rights and any other particulars set forth in the Company’s notice to the Depositary. The Depositary shall instruct the Custodian to present to the Company the Deposited Securities in respect of which repurchase or redemption rights are being exercised against payment of the applicable repurchase or redemption price. Upon receipt of confirmation from the Custodian that the repurchase or redemption has taken place and that funds representing the repurchase or redemption price have been received, the Depositary shall convert, transfer, and distribute the proceeds (net of applicable (a) fees and charges of, and the expenses incurred by, the Depositary, and (b) taxes), retire ADSs and cancel ADRs, if applicable, upon delivery of such ADSs by Holders thereof and the terms set forth in Sections 4.1 and 6.2 of the Deposit Agreement. If less than all outstanding Deposited Securities are repurchased or redeemed, the ADSs to be retired will be selected by lot or on a pro rata basis, as may be determined by the Depositary. The repurchase or redemption price per ADS shall be the dollar equivalent of the per share amount received by the Depositary (adjusted to reflect the ADS(s)-to-Share(s) ratio) upon the repurchase or redemption of the Deposited Securities represented by ADSs (subject to the terms of Section 4.8 of the Deposit Agreement and the applicable fees and charges of, and expenses incurred by, the Depositary, and taxes) multiplied by the number of Deposited Securities represented by each ADS repurchased or redeemed. Notwithstanding anything contained in the Deposit Agreement to the contrary, in the event the Company fails to give the Depositary timely notice of the proposed repurchase or redemption provided for above, the Depositary agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to perform the actions contemplated in Section 4.7 of the Deposit Agreement, and the Company, the Holders and the Beneficial Owners acknowledge that the Depositary shall have no liability for the Depositary’s failure to perform the actions contemplated in Section 4.7 of the Deposit Agreement where such notice has not been so timely given, other than its failure to use commercially reasonable efforts, as provided herein.

• Notice of Optional Redemption (a) At least 30 days but not more than 60 days before a redemption date pursuant to Paragraph 5 of the applicable Security, the Issuers shall mail or cause to be mailed by first-class mail a notice of redemption to each Holder whose Securities are to be redeemed to such Holder’s registered address or otherwise in accordance with the procedures of the Depository, except that redemption notices may be delivered more than 60 days prior to a redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with a defeasance of the Securities or a satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture pursuant to Article 8 hereof. Any such notice shall identify the Securities to be redeemed and shall state: (i) the redemption date; (ii) the redemption price and the amount of accrued interest to the redemption date; (iii) the name and address of a Paying Agent; (iv) that Securities called for redemption must be surrendered to a Paying Agent to collect the redemption price, plus accrued interest; (v) if fewer than all the outstanding Securities are to be redeemed, the certificate numbers and principal amounts of the particular Securities to be redeemed, the aggregate principal amount of Securities to be redeemed and the aggregate principal amount of Securities to be outstanding after such partial redemption; (vi) that, unless the Issuers default in making such redemption payment or any Paying Agent is prohibited from making such payment pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, interest on Securities (or portion thereof) called for redemption ceases to accrue on and after the redemption date; (vii) the CUSIP number, ISIN and/or “Common Code” number, if any, printed on the Securities being redeemed; and (viii) that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP number or ISIN and/or “Common Code” number, if any, listed in such notice or printed on the Securities. In addition, if such redemption is subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, such notice of redemption shall describe each such condition, and if applicable, shall state that, in the Issuers’ discretion, the redemption date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied, or such redemption may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied by the stated redemption date, or by the redemption date as so delayed. (b) At the Issuers’ request, the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption specified in this Section 3.05 in the Issuers’ names and at the Issuers’ expense; provided, however, that the Issuers have delivered to the Trustee, at least 45 days (unless a shorter period is acceptable to the Trustee) prior to the redemption date, an Officer’s Certificate requesting that the Trustee give such notice. In such event, the Issuers shall provide the Trustee in writing with the information required by this Section 3.05.

• Withdrawal of Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice (a) A Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice may be withdrawn (in whole or in part) by means of a written notice of withdrawal delivered to the Paying Agent in accordance with this Section 14.03 at any time prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date, specifying: (i) the aggregate principal amount of the Notes with respect to which such notice of withdrawal is being submitted, which must be $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof, (ii) if Physical Notes have been issued, the certificate number of the Note in respect of which such notice of withdrawal is being submitted, and (iii) the aggregate principal amount, if any, of such Note that remains subject to the original Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice, which portion must be in principal amounts of $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000; provided, however, that if the Notes are Global Notes, the notice must comply with appropriate procedures of the Depositary.
