Amendments or Supplements Without Consent of Holders In addition to any permitted amendment or supplement to the Indenture pursuant to Section 9.1 of the Original Indenture, the Company and the Trustee may amend or supplement the Indenture or the Notes without notice to or the consent of any Holder of the Notes:
Suspension of Solicitation; Amendment or Supplement NIB reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to instruct the Agents to suspend at any time for any period of time or permanently, the solicitation of orders to purchase Certificated Notes. Upon receipt of such instructions, the Agents will forthwith suspend solicitation until such time as NIB has advised them that such solicitation may be resumed. In the event that at the time NIB suspends solicitation of purchases there shall be any orders outstanding for settlement, NIB will promptly advise the Agents and the Fiscal Agent whether such orders may be settled and whether copies of the Prospectus, together with the appropriate Pricing Supplement, or the 144A Prospectus, as applicable, as in effect at the time of the suspension may be delivered in connection with the settlement of such orders. NIB will have the sole responsibility for such decision and for any arrangements that may be made in the event that NIB determines that such orders may not be settled or that copies of such Prospectus or 144A Prospectus may not be so delivered. In the case of the Registered Notes only, if NIB decides to amend or supplement the Registration Statement or the Prospectus it will promptly advise the Agents and furnish the Agents with the proposed amendment or supplement and with such certificates and opinions as are required, all to the extent required by and in accordance with the terms of the Selling Agency Agreement. In the case of Registered Notes only, subject to the provisions of the Selling Agency Agreement, NIB may file with the Commission any supplement to the Prospectus relating to the Notes; NIB will provide the Agents and the Fiscal Agent with copies of any such supplement, and confirm to the Agents that such supplement has been filed with the Commission pursuant to the applicable paragraph of Rule 424(b). In the case of 144A Notes only, if NIB decides to amend or supplement a 144A Prospectus, it will promptly advise the Agents and furnish the Agents with the proposed amendment or supplement and with such certificates and opinions as are required, all to the extent required by and in accordance with the terms of the Selling Agency Agreement.
Amendment or Supplement At any time prior to the Effective Time, this Agreement may be amended or supplemented in any and all respects, whether before or after receipt of the Company Stockholder Approval, by written agreement of the parties hereto, by action taken by their respective Boards of Directors; provided, however, that following approval of the Transactions by the stockholders of the Company, there shall be no amendment or change to the provisions hereof which by Law would require further approval by the stockholders of the Company without such approval.
Increased Conversion Rate Applicable to Certain Notes Surrendered in Connection with Make-Whole Fundamental Changes (a) If the Effective Date of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change occurs prior to the Maturity Date and a Holder elects to convert its Notes in connection with such Make-Whole Fundamental Change, the Company shall, under the circumstances described below, increase the Conversion Rate for the Notes so surrendered for conversion by a number of additional shares of Common Stock (the “Additional Shares”), as described below. A conversion of Notes shall be deemed for these purposes to be “in connection with” such Make-Whole Fundamental Change if the relevant Notice of Conversion is received by the Conversion Agent from, and including, the Effective Date of the Make-Whole Fundamental Change up to, and including, the Business Day immediately prior to the related Fundamental Change Repurchase Date (or, in the case of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change that would have been a Fundamental Change but for the proviso in clause (b) of the definition thereof, the 35th Trading Day immediately following the Effective Date of such Make-Whole Fundamental Change) (such period, the “Make-Whole Fundamental Change Period”).
Inability of Lender to Submit Forms If any Lender determines, as a result of any change in applicable law, regulation or treaty, or in any official application or interpretation thereof, that it is unable to submit to the Borrower or the Administrative Agent any form or certificate that such Lender is obligated to submit pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section 13.1 or that such Lender is required to withdraw or cancel any such form or certificate previously submitted or any such form or certificate otherwise becomes ineffective or inaccurate, such Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower and Administrative Agent of such fact and the Lender shall to that extent not be obligated to provide any such form or certificate and will be entitled to withdraw or cancel any affected form or certificate, as applicable.

Each Lender hereby grants to the Administrative Agent an irrevocable power of attorney (which power is coupled with an interest) to execute and deliver, on behalf of such Lender as assignor, any Assignment and Acceptance necessary to effectuate any assignment of such Lender’s interests hereunder in the circumstances contemplated by this Section 2.20(a).
