amounts required by law to be deducted, to the registered holder of this
Debenture reflected in the Debenture Register as of the tenth day prior to the

exchange, as reported in the Wall Street Journal. Such conversion shall be

such, past, present or future, of the Company or any successor corporation,
whether by virtue of any constitution, statute or rule of law, or by the
