Paragraph 7 of the Securities and in this Indenture; and
(2) delivery of such Security to the Paying Agent prior to, on or after

The Company shall purchase from the Holder thereof, pursuant to this
Section 3.7, a portion of a Security, if the principal amount at maturity of

Any purchase by the Company contemplated pursuant to the provisions of this

consideration to be received by the Holder promptly following the later of the
Purchase Date and the time of delivery of the Security.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any Holder delivering to

withdrawn in accordance with the terms of this Indenture;
(iii) that Securities must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to
collect payment;
(iv) that the Purchase Price for any security as to which a Purchase
Notice has been given and not withdrawn will be paid promptly following the

5. Section 3.8 is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
"Section 3.8 PURCHASE OF SECURITIES AT OPTION OF THE HOLDER UPON A
CHANGE IN CONTROL. (a) If a Change in Control occurs, the Securities not
previously purchased by the Company shall be purchased by the Company, at
the option of the Holder thereof, at the Purchase Price on the Change in
Control Purchase Date (the "Change in Control Purchase Price"), as of the
date that is 45 days after the date of the Change in Control Purchase
Notice delivered by the Company (the "Change in Control Purchase Date"),
subject to satisfaction by or on behalf of the Holder of the requirements
set forth in Section 3.8(c).
A "Change in Control" shall be deemed to have occurred at such time
after the Securities are originally issued as either of the following
events shall occur:
(i) any person, including any syndicate or group deemed to be a
"person" under Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act, acquires beneficial
ownership, directly or indirectly, through a purchase, merger or other
acquisition transaction or series of transactions, of shares of the
Company's Capital Stock entitling the person to exercise 50% or
-5-
more of the total voting power of all shares of the Company's Capital Stock
that are entitled to vote generally in elections of directors, other than
an acquisition by the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of its
employee benefit plans and other than any transaction contemplated by
clause (a)(ii)(B) of this Section 3.8; or
(ii) the Company merges or consolidates with or into any other person
(other than a Subsidiary), any merger of another person (other than a
Subsidiary) into the Company, or the Company conveys, sells, transfers or
leases all or substantially all of its assets to another person (other than
a Subsidiary), other than any transaction: (A) that does not result in any
reclassification, conversion, exchange or cancellation of the Company's
outstanding Ordinary Shares (other than the cancellation of any of the
Company's outstanding Ordinary Shares held by the person with whom the
Company mergers or consolidates), or (B) pursuant to which the holders of
the Company's Ordinary Shares immediately prior to the transaction have the
entitlement to exercise, directly or indirectly, 50% or more of the total
voting power of all shares of Capital Stock entitled to vote generally in
the election of directors of the continuing or surviving corporation
immediately after the transaction, or (C) which is effected solely to
change the Company's jurisdiction of incorporation and results in a
reclassification, conversion or exchange of outstanding Ordinary Shares
solely into shares of common stock of the surviving entity.
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.8, a Change in
Control shall not be deemed to have occurred if (A) the closing price per
Ordinary Share on the NYSE or, if the Ordinary Shares are not listed on the
NYSE, on the principal other national or regional securities exchange on which
the Ordinary Shares are then listed, or if the Ordinary Shares are not listed on
a U.S. national or regional exchange, as reported on the National Association of
Securities Dealers Automated Quotation System, of if the Ordinary Shares are not
quoted on the National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotation
System, as reported on the principal other market on which the Ordinary Shares
are then traded, for any five trading days within the period of 10 consecutive
trading days ending immediately after the later of the Change in Control or the
public announcement of the Change in Control, in the case of a Change in Control
relating to an acquisition of Capital Stock, or the period of 10 consecutive
trading days ending immediately before the Change in Control, in the case of
Change in Control relating to a merger, consolidation or asset sale, equals or
exceeds 105% of the conversion price of the Securities in effect on each of
those trading days or (B) all of the consideration (excluding cash payments for
fractional shares and cash payments made pursuant to dissenters' appraisal
rights) in a merger or consolidation otherwise constituting a Change in Control
under clause (i) and/or clause (ii) above consists of shares of common stock
traded on a national securities exchange or quoted on the Nasdaq National Market
(or will be so traded or quoted immediately following the merger or
consolidation) and as a result of the merger or consolidation the Securities
become convertible into such common stock. For purposes of this Section 3.8, (x)
the conversion price is equal to $1,000 divided by the Conversion Rate, (y)
whether a person is a "beneficial owner" shall be determined in accordance with
Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act and (z) "person" includes any syndicate or
group that would be deemed to be a "person" under Section 13(d)(3) of the
Exchange Act.
At least three Business Days before the Change in Control Notice Date (as
defined below), the Company shall deliver an Officers' Certificate to the
Trustee specifying:
-6-
(i) the information required by Section 3.8(b); and
(ii) whether the Company desires the Trustee to give the Change in
Control Notice required by Section 3.8(b).
(b) No later than 30 days after the occurrence of a Change in Control, the
Company shall mail a written notice of the Change in Control (the "Change in
Control Notice," the date of such mailing, the "Change in Control Notice Date")
by first-class mail to the Trustee and to each Holder (and to beneficial owners
as required by applicable law). The notice shall include a form of Change in
Control Purchase Notice to be completed by the Holder and shall state:
(1) briefly, the nature of the Change in Control and the date of such
Change in Control;
(2) the date by which the Change in Control Purchase Notice pursuant to
this Section 3.8 must be given;
(3) the Change in Control Purchase Date;
(4) the Change in Control Purchase Price;

has been given may be converted if they are otherwise convertible
pursuant to Article 10 hereof only if the Change in Control Purchase
Notice has been withdrawn in accordance with the terms of this
Indenture;
(8) that the Securities must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect
payment;
(9) that the Change in Control Purchase Price for any Security as to which
a Change in Control Purchase Notice has been duly given and not
withdrawn will be paid promptly following the later of the Change in
Control Purchase Date and the time of surrender of such Security as
described in (8);
(10) briefly, the procedures the Holder must follow to exercise rights
under this Section 3.8;
(11) briefly, the conversion rights, if any, of the Securities;
(12) the procedures for withdrawing a Change in Control Purchase Notice;
-7-
(13) that, unless the Company defaults in making payment of such Change in
Control Purchase Price, interest, if any, on Securities surrendered
for purchase by the Company will cease to accrue on and after the
Change in Control Purchase Date; and
(14) the CUSIP number(s) of the Securities.
The delivery of such Security to the Paying Agent with the Change in
Control Purchase Notice (together with all necessary endorsements) at the
offices of the Paying Agent shall be a condition to the receipt by the Holder of
the Change in Control Purchase Price therefor; provided, however, that such
Change in Control Purchase Price shall be so paid pursuant to this Section 3.8
only if the Security so delivered to the Paying Agent shall conform in all
material respects to the description thereof set forth in the related Change in
Control Purchase Notice.
The Company shall purchase from the Holder thereof, pursuant to this
Section 3.8, a portion of a Security if the principal amount at maturity of such
portion is $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000. Provisions of this
Indenture that apply to the purchase of all of a Security also apply to the
purchase of such portion of such Security.
Any purchase by the Company contemplated pursuant to the provisions of this
Section 3.8 shall be consummated by the delivery of the consideration to be
received by the Holder on the Change of Control Purchase Date.
(c) A Holder may exercise its rights specified in Section 3.8(a) upon
delivery of a written notice of purchase (a "Change in Control Purchase Notice")
to the Paying Agent at any time on or prior to the 30th day after the date the
Company delivers its written Change in Control Notice, stating:
(1) the certificate number of the Security which the Holder will deliver
to be purchased;
(2) the portion of the principal amount of the Security which the Holder
will deliver to be purchased, which portion must be $1,000 or an
integral multiple thereof; and
(3) that such Security shall be purchased pursuant to the terms and
conditions specified in Paragraph 7 of the Securities.
The delivery of such Security to the Paying Agent with the Change in
Control Purchase Notice (together with all necessary endorsements) at the
offices of the Paying Agent shall be a condition to the receipt by the Holder of
the Change in Control Purchase Price therefor; provided, however, that such
Change in Control Purchase Price shall be so paid pursuant to this Section 3.8
only if the Security so delivered to the Paying Agent shall conform in all
material respects to the description thereof set forth in the related Change in
Control Purchase Notice.
The Company shall purchase from the Holder thereof, pursuant to this
Section 3.8, a portion of a Security if the principal amount at maturity of such
portion is $1,000 or an in-
-8-
tegral multiple of $1,000. Provisions of this Indenture that apply to the
purchase of all of a Security also apply to the purchase of such portion of such

provided in Paragraph 12 of the Securities, together with interest thereon
(subject to the provisions of Section 7.1(f)), held by them for the payment
of the Purchase Price or Change in Control Purchase Price, as the case may
be; provided, however, that to the extent that the aggregate amount of cash
deposited by the Company pursuant to Section 3.10 exceeds the aggregate
Purchase Price or Change in Control Purchase Price, as the case may be, of
the Securities or portions thereof which the Company is obligated to
purchase as of the Purchase Date or Change in Control Purchase Date, as the
case may be, then, unless otherwise agreed in writing with the Company,
promptly after the Business Day following the Purchase Date or Change in

such excess to the Company together with interest thereon (subject to the
provisions of Section 7.1(f))."
9. Section 10.1 is hereby amended by inserting the following paragraph

regional exchange, as reported on the National Association of Securities Dealers
Automated Quotation System, or if the Ordinary Shares are not quoted on the
National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotation System, as
reported on the principal other market on which the Ordinary Shares are then

occurrence, during the period commencing on the first of the trading days during
the five trading day period and ending on the Purchase Date, of any event
described in Sections 10.6, 10.7 or 10.8; subject, however, to the conditions
set forth in Sections 10.10 and 10.11."

9.1 of the Indenture, the Company and the Trustee entered into a supplemental
indenture, dated September 22, 2004 (the "Supplemental Indenture"), to surrender

as follows:
-10-
"(b) At the option of the Holder and subject to the terms and

shall occur 45 days after the date of such offer) after the occurrence of a
Change in Control of the Company (as defined in the Indenture) for a Change
in Control Purchase Price equal to the Accreted Value plus accrued and
unpaid cash interest, if any, on the Change in Control Purchase Date, which
Change in Control Purchase Price shall be paid in cash."
4. Paragraph 7(c) of the CARZ is amended and restated in its entirety
as follows:
"(c) Holders have the right to withdraw any Purchase Notice delivered
pursuant to Paragraph 7(a) above or Change in Control Purchase Notice
delivered pursuant to Paragraph 7(b), as the case may be, by delivering to
the Paying Agent a written notice of withdrawal in accordance with the
provisions of the Indenture.
If cash sufficient to pay the Purchase Price or Change in Control
Purchase Price, as the case may be, of all Securities or portions thereof
to be purchased as of the Purchase Date or the Change in Control Purchase
Date, as the case may be, is deposited with the Paying Agent on the
Business Day following the Purchase Date or the Change in Control Purchase
Date and other interest ceases to accrue on such Securities (or portions
thereof) immediately after such Purchase Date or Change in Control Purchase
Date, and the Holder thereof shall have no other rights as such other than
the right to receive the Purchase Price or Change in Control Purchase Price
upon surrender of such Security."
5. The CARZ, as amended by the provisions of this Supplemental
Indenture, shall bear a notation substantially to the following effect:
"THE TERMS OF THIS SECURITY HAVE BEEN AMENDED TO THE EXTENT PROVIDED IN THE
