the Note Registrar to the contrary or (ii) on any Global Note by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of the Depositary or its nominee.

Holder on the relevant payment date and shall not accrue interest unless Special Interest is payable pursuant to this Indenture on the relevant payment date, in which case such Defaulted Amounts shall accrue interest per annum at the
then-applicable rate of Special Interest and to the extent that such Special Interest remains payable pursuant to this Indenture, subject to the enforceability thereof under applicable law, from, and including, such relevant payment date, and such
Defaulted Amounts together with any such Special 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

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).
16
(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.

Only such Notes as shall bear thereon a certificate of authentication substantially in the form set forth on the Form of Note attached as Exhibit A hereto, executed manually by an authorized officer of
the Trustee (or an authenticating agent appointed by the Trustee as provided by Section 18.10), shall be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose. Such certificate by the Trustee (or such an authenticating
agent) upon any Note executed by the Company shall be conclusive evidence that the Note so authenticated has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder and that the Holder is entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.
17
In case any Officer of the Company who shall have signed any of the Notes shall cease to be such Officer before the Notes so signed shall have been authenticated and delivered by the Trustee, or
disposed of by the Company, such Notes nevertheless may be authenticated and delivered or disposed of as though the person who signed such Notes had not ceased to be such Officer of the Company; and any Note may be signed on behalf of the Company by
such persons as, at the actual date of the execution of such Note, shall be the Officers of the Company, although at the date of the execution of this Indenture any such person was not such an Officer.

shall cause to be kept at the Corporate Trust Office a register (the register maintained in such office or in any other office or agency of the Company designated pursuant to Section 4.02, the “Note Register”)
in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Company shall provide for the registration of Notes and of transfers of Notes. Such register shall be in written form or in any form capable of being converted into written
form within a reasonable period of time. The Trustee is hereby initially appointed the “Note Registrar” for the purpose of registering Notes and transfers of Notes as herein provided. The Company may appoint
one or more co-Note Registrars in accordance with Section 4.02.
Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Note to the Note Registrar or any co-Note Registrar, and satisfaction of the requirements for such transfer set forth in this Section 2.05, the

restrictive legends as may be required by this Indenture.

the Company pursuant to Section 4.02. Whenever any Notes are so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the Notes that the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive, bearing
registration numbers not contemporaneously outstanding.
All Notes presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange, repurchase or conversion shall (if so required by the Company, the Trustee, the Note Registrar or any co-Note Registrar)

No service charge shall be imposed by the Company, the Trustee, the Note Registrar, any co-Note Registrar or the Paying Agent for any exchange or registration of transfer of Notes, but the Company may
require a Holder to pay a sum sufficient to cover any documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer tax required in connection therewith as a result of the name of the Holder of new Notes issued upon such exchange or registration of transfer being
different from the name of the Holder of the old Notes surrendered for exchange or registration of transfer.
18
None of the Company, the Trustee, the Note Registrar or any co-Note Registrar shall be required to exchange or register a transfer of (i) any Notes surrendered for conversion or, if a portion of any
Note is surrendered for conversion, such portion thereof surrendered for conversion, (ii) any Notes, or a portion of any Note, surrendered for repurchase (and not withdrawn) in accordance with Article 15 or (iii) in the event of any Redemption, any
Note so selected for Redemption, in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part.
All Notes issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Notes in accordance with this Indenture shall be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the
same benefits under this Indenture as the Notes surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.

the Depositary, unless otherwise required by law, subject to the fourth paragraph from the end of Section 2.05(c) all Notes shall be represented by one or more Notes in global form (each, a “Global Note”)
registered in the name of the Depositary or the nominee of the Depositary. The transfer and exchange of beneficial interests in a Global Note that does not involve the issuance of a Physical Note shall be effected through the Depositary (but not
the Trustee or the Custodian) in accordance with this Indenture (including the restrictions on transfer set forth herein) and the procedures of the Depositary therefor.

to bear the legend set forth in this Section 2.05(c) (together with any Ordinary Shares issued upon conversion of the Notes that is required to bear the legend set forth in Section 2.05(d), collectively, the “Restricted
Securities”) shall be subject to the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Section 2.05(c) (including the legend set forth below), unless such restrictions on transfer shall be eliminated or otherwise waived by written consent of the
Company, and the Holder of each such Restricted Security, by such Holder’s acceptance thereof, agrees to be bound by all such restrictions on transfer. As used in this Section 2.05(c) and Section 2.05(d), the term “transfer”
encompasses any sale, pledge, transfer or other disposition whatsoever of any Restricted Security.

thereof, other than Ordinary Shares, if any, issued upon conversion thereof, which shall bear the legend set forth in Section 2.05(d), if applicable) shall bear a legend in substantially the following form (unless such Notes have been transferred

surrender any Global Note as to which any of the conditions set forth in clause (i) through (iii) of the immediately preceding sentence have been satisfied, and, upon such instruction, the Custodian shall so surrender such Global Note for exchange;
and any new Global Note so exchanged therefor shall not bear the restrictive legend specified in this Section 2.05(c) and shall not be assigned a restricted CUSIP number. The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee in writing upon the occurrence
of the Resale Restriction Termination Date and promptly after a registration statement, if any, with respect to the Notes or any Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion of the Notes has been declared effective under the Securities Act.
Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture (other than the provisions set forth in this Section 2.05(c)), a Global Note may not be transferred as a whole or in part except (i) by the
Depositary to a nominee of the Depositary or by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or another nominee of the Depositary or by the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such successor Depositary and (ii)
for exchange of a Global Note or a portion thereof for one or more Physical Notes in accordance with the second immediately succeeding paragraph.

Notes, shall authenticate and deliver (x) in the case of clause (iii), a Physical Note to such beneficial owner in a principal amount equal to the principal amount of such Note corresponding to such beneficial owner’s beneficial interest and (y) in
the case of clause (i) or (ii), Physical Notes to each beneficial owner of the related Global Notes (or a portion thereof) in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of such Global Notes in exchange for such Global
Notes, and upon delivery of the Global Notes to the Trustee such Global Notes shall be canceled.

Trustee shall deliver such Physical Notes to the Persons in whose names such Physical Notes are so registered.
At such time as all interests in a Global Note have been converted, canceled, repurchased, redeemed or transferred, such Global Note shall be, upon receipt thereof, canceled by the Trustee in
accordance with standing procedures and existing instructions between the Depositary and the Custodian. At any time prior to such cancellation, if any interest in a Global Note is exchanged for Physical Notes, converted, canceled, repurchased,
redeemed or transferred to a transferee who receives Physical Notes therefor or any Physical Note is exchanged or transferred for part of such Global Note, the principal amount of such Global Note shall, in accordance with the standing procedures and
instructions existing between the Depositary and the Custodian, be appropriately reduced or increased, as the case may be, and an endorsement shall be made on such Global Note, by the Trustee or the Custodian, at the direction of the Trustee, to
reflect such reduction or increase.
None of the Company, the Trustee or any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall have any responsibility or liability for the payment of amounts to owners of beneficial interest in a Global Note, for
any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of those interests by the Depositary, or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records of the Depositary relating to such beneficial ownership of those interests.

The Trustee or such authenticating agent may authenticate any such substituted Note and deliver the same upon the receipt of such security or indemnity as the Trustee, the Company and, if applicable,
such authenticating agent may require. No service charge shall be imposed by the Company, the Trustee, the Note Registrar, any co-Note Registrar or the Paying Agent upon the issuance of any substitute Note, but the Company may require a Holder to
pay a sum sufficient to cover any documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer tax required in connection therewith as a result of the name of the Holder of the new substitute Note being different from the name of the Holder of the old Note that
became mutilated or was destroyed, lost or stolen. In case any Note that has matured or is about to mature or has been surrendered for required repurchase or is about to be converted in accordance with Article 14 shall become mutilated or be
destroyed, lost or stolen, the Company may, in its sole discretion, instead of issuing a substitute Note, pay or authorize the payment of or convert or authorize the conversion of the same (without surrender thereof except in the case of a mutilated
Note), as the case may be, if the applicant for such payment or conversion shall furnish to the Company, to the Trustee and, if applicable, to such authenticating agent such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them
harmless for any loss, liability, cost or expense caused by or connected with such substitution, and, in every case of destruction, loss or theft, evidence satisfactory to the Company, the Trustee and, if applicable, any Paying Agent or Conversion
Agent evidence of their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of such Note and of the ownership thereof.
24
Every substitute Note issued pursuant to the provisions of this Section 2.06 by virtue of the fact that any Note is destroyed, lost or stolen shall constitute an additional contractual obligation of
the Company, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall be found at any time, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of (but shall be subject to all the limitations set forth in) this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and
all other Notes duly issued hereunder. To the extent permitted by law, all Notes shall be held and owned upon the express condition that the foregoing provisions are exclusive with respect to the replacement, payment, redemption, conversion or
repurchase of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes and shall preclude any and all other rights or remedies notwithstanding any law or statute existing or hereafter enacted to the contrary with respect to the replacement, payment, redemption,
conversion or repurchase of negotiable instruments or other securities without their surrender.
Section 2.07. Temporary Notes. Pending the preparation of Physical Notes, the Company may execute and the Trustee or an
authenticating agent appointed by the Trustee shall, upon written request of the Company, authenticate and deliver temporary Notes (printed or lithographed). Temporary Notes shall be issuable in any authorized denomination, and substantially in the
form of the Physical Notes but with such omissions, insertions and variations as may be appropriate for temporary Notes, all as may be determined by the Company. Every such temporary Note shall be executed by the Company and authenticated by the
Trustee or such authenticating agent upon the same conditions and in substantially the same manner, and with the same effect, as the Physical Notes. Without unreasonable delay, the Company shall execute and deliver to the Trustee or such
authenticating agent Physical Notes (other than any Global Note) and thereupon any or all temporary Notes (other than any Global Note) may be surrendered in exchange therefor, at each office or agency maintained by the Company pursuant to Section
4.02 and the Trustee or such authenticating agent shall authenticate and deliver in exchange for such temporary Notes an equal aggregate principal amount of Physical Notes. Such exchange shall be made by the Company at its own expense and without
any charge therefor. Until so exchanged, the temporary Notes shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits and subject to the same limitations under this Indenture as Physical Notes authenticated and delivered hereunder.
Section 2.08. Cancellation of Notes Paid, Converted, Etc. The Company shall cause all Notes surrendered for the purpose
of payment, repurchase, redemption, registration of transfer or exchange or conversion, if surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee (including any of the Company’s agents, Subsidiaries or Affiliates), to be surrendered to the Trustee for
cancellation, except as provided in Section 14.12. All Notes delivered to the Trustee shall be canceled promptly by it. Except for any Notes surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange, or as otherwise expressly permitted by any of the
provisions of this Indenture, no Notes shall be authenticated in exchange for any Notes surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation. The Trustee shall dispose of canceled Notes in accordance with its customary procedures and, after such disposition,
shall deliver evidence of such disposition to the Company, at the Company’s written request in a Company Order.
25
Section 2.09. CUSIP Numbers. The Company in issuing the Notes may use “CUSIP” numbers (if then generally in use), and, if
so, the Trustee shall use “CUSIP” numbers in all notices issued to Holders as a convenience to such Holders; provided that the Trustee shall have no liability for any defect in the “CUSIP” numbers as they
appear on any Note, notice or elsewhere, and, provided further that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or on such
notice and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes. The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee in writing of any change in the “CUSIP” numbers.
Section 2.10. Additional Notes; Repurchases. The Company may, without the consent of, or notice to, the Holders and
notwithstanding Section 2.01, reopen this Indenture and issue additional Notes hereunder with the same terms as the Notes initially issued hereunder (other than differences in the issue date, the issue price and, if applicable, restrictions on
transfer in respect of such additional Notes) in an unlimited aggregate principal amount; provided that if any such additional Notes are not fungible with the Notes initially issued hereunder for U.S. federal
income tax or securities laws purposes, such additional Notes shall have one or more separate CUSIP numbers or no CUSIP number. Prior to the issuance of any such additional Notes, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee a Company Order, an
Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, such Officers’ Certificate and Opinion of Counsel to cover such matters as required by Section 18.05. In addition, the Company may, to the extent permitted by law, directly or indirectly (regardless
of whether such Notes are surrendered to the Company), repurchase Notes in the open market or otherwise, whether by the Company or its Subsidiaries or through a private or public tender or exchange offer or through counterparties to private
agreements, including by cash-settled swaps or other derivatives. The Company shall cause any Notes so repurchased (other than Notes repurchased pursuant to cash-settled swaps or other derivatives) to be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation
in accordance with Section 2.08 and such Notes shall no longer be considered outstanding under this Indenture upon their repurchase.
Section 3.01. Satisfaction and Discharge. This Indenture shall upon request of the Company contained in an Officers’
Certificate cease to be of further effect, and the Trustee, at the expense of the Company, shall execute instruments reasonably requested by the Company acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, when Article 3 (i) all Notes
theretofore authenticated and delivered (other than (x) Notes which have been destroyed, lost or stolen and which have been replaced, paid or converted as provided in Section 2.06 and (y) Notes for whose payment money has theretofore been deposited
in trust or segregated and held in trust by the Company and thereafter repaid to the Company or discharged from such trust, as provided in Section 4.04(d)) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or (ii) the Company has deposited with
the Trustee or delivered to Holders, as applicable, after the Notes have become due and payable, whether on the Maturity Date, any Redemption Date, any Fundamental Change Repurchase Date, upon conversion or otherwise, cash, Ordinary Shares or a
combination thereof, as applicable, solely to satisfy the Company’s Conversion Obligation, sufficient to pay all of the outstanding Notes and all other sums due and payable under this Indenture by the Company; and Article 4 the Company has delivered
to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture have been complied with. Notwithstanding the satisfaction
and discharge of this Indenture, the obligations of the Company to the Trustee under Section 7.06 shall survive.
26
Section 4.01. Payment of Principal and Special Interest. The Company covenants and agrees that it will cause to be paid
the principal (including the Redemption Price and the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, if applicable) of, and any accrued and unpaid Special Interest on, each of the Notes at the places, at the respective times and in the manner provided herein
and in the Notes. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Indenture, the Company may, to the extent it is required to do so by law, deduct or withhold income or other similar taxes imposed by any Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction from
a payment of any principal, Special Interest, Defaulted Amounts and Additional Amounts hereunder.
Section 4.02. Maintenance of Office or Agency. The Company will maintain in the continental United States, an office or
agency where the Notes may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange or for presentation for payment or repurchase (“Paying Agent”) or for conversion (“Conversion
Agent”) and where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Notes and this Indenture may be served. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of such
office or agency. If at any time the Company shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the
Corporate Trust Office or the office or agency of the Trustee in the continental United States.
The Company may also from time to time designate as co-Note Registrars one or more other offices or agencies where the Notes may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from
time to time rescind such designations; provided that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Company of its obligation to maintain an office or agency in the continental United
States, for such purposes. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any such other office or agency. The terms “Paying
Agent” and “Conversion Agent” include any such additional or other offices or agencies, as applicable.
The Company hereby initially designates the Trustee as the Paying Agent, Note Registrar, Custodian and Conversion Agent and the Corporate Trust Office as the office or agency in New York, New York,
where Notes may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange or for presentation for payment or repurchase or for conversion and where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Notes and this Indenture may be served,
provided that the Corporate Trust Office shall not be a place for service of legal process on the Company.
27
Section 4.03. Appointments to Fill Vacancies in Trustee’s Office. The Company, whenever necessary to avoid or fill a
vacancy in the Corporate Trust Office, will appoint, in the manner provided in Section 7.09, a Trustee, so that there shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder.
Section 4.04. Provisions as to Paying Agent. Article 5 If the Company shall appoint a Paying Agent other than the
Trustee, the Company will cause such Paying Agent to execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which such agent shall agree with the Trustee, subject to the provisions of this Section 4.04:
(i) that it will hold all sums held by it as such agent for the payment of the principal (including the Redemption Price and the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, if
applicable) of, and any accrued and unpaid Special Interest on, the Notes in trust for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes;
(ii) that it will give the Trustee prompt written notice of any failure by the Company to make any payment of the principal (including the Redemption Price and the
Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, if applicable) of, and any accrued and unpaid Special Interest on, the Notes when the same shall be due and payable; and
(iii) that at any time during the continuance of an Event of Default, upon request of the Trustee, it will forthwith pay to the Trustee all sums so held in trust.
The Company shall, on or before each due date of the principal (including the Redemption Price and the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, if applicable) of, or any accrued and unpaid Special Interest
on, the Notes, deposit with the Paying Agent a sum sufficient to pay such principal (including the Redemption Price and the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, if applicable) or any accrued and unpaid Special Interest, and (unless such Paying Agent
is the Trustee) the Company will promptly notify the Trustee in writing of any failure to take such action; provided that if such deposit is made on the due date, such deposit must be received by the Paying
Agent by 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on such date.
(b) If the Company shall act as its own Paying Agent, it will, on or
before each due date of the principal (including the Redemption Price and the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, if applicable) of, and any accrued and unpaid Special Interest on, the Notes, set aside, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit
of the Holders of the Notes a sum sufficient to pay such principal (including the Redemption Price and the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, if applicable) and such accrued and unpaid Special Interest, if any, so becoming due and will promptly
notify the Trustee in writing of any failure to take such action and of any failure by the Company to make any payment of the principal (including the Redemption Price and the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, if applicable) of, or any accrued
and unpaid Special Interest on, the Notes when the same shall become due and payable.
28
(c) Anything in this Section 4.04 to the contrary notwithstanding,
the Company may, at any time, for the purpose of obtaining a satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, or for any other reason, pay, cause to be paid or deliver to the Trustee all sums or amounts held in trust by the Company or any Paying Agent
hereunder as required by this Section 4.04, such sums or amounts to be held by the Trustee upon the trusts herein contained and upon such payment or delivery by the Company or any Paying Agent to the Trustee, the Company or such Paying Agent shall
be released from all further liability but only with respect to such sums or amounts.
(d) Any money and Ordinary Shares deposited with the Trustee or any
Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in trust for the payment of the principal (including the Redemption Price and the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, if applicable) of, any accrued and unpaid Special Interest on, and the consideration
due upon conversion of, any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal (including the Redemption Price and the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, if applicable), Special Interest or consideration due upon conversion has
become due and payable shall be paid to the Company on request of the Company contained in an Officers’ Certificate, or (if then held by the Company) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Note shall thereafter, as an unsecured
general creditor, look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money and Ordinary Shares, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease.
Section 4.05. Existence. Subject to Article 11, the Company shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve
and keep in full force and effect its corporate existence.
Section 4.06. Rule 144A Information Requirement and Annual Reports. Article 6 At any time the Company is not subject to
Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Company shall, so long as any of the Notes or any Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion thereof shall, at such time, constitute “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144(a)(3) under the
Securities Act, promptly provide to the Trustee and, upon written request, any Holder, beneficial owner or prospective purchaser of such Notes or any Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion of such Notes, the information required to be delivered
pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act to facilitate the resale of such Notes or Ordinary Shares pursuant to Rule 144A. The Company shall take such further action as any Holder or beneficial owner of such Notes or such Ordinary Shares
may reasonably request to the extent from time to time required to enable such Holder or beneficial owner to sell such Notes or Ordinary Shares in accordance with Rule 144A, as such rule may be amended from time to time.
(b) The Company shall file with the Trustee, within 15 days after the
same are required to be filed with the Commission, copies of any documents or reports that the Company is required to file with the Commission pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act (excluding any such information, documents or
reports, or portions thereof, subject to, or with respect to which the Company is actively seeking, confidential treatment and any correspondence with the SEC and giving effect to any grace period provided by Rule 12b-25 under the Exchange Act).
Any such document or report that the Company files with the Commission via the Commission’s XXXXX system or any successor system shall be deemed to be filed with the Trustee for purposes of this Section 4.06(b) at the time such documents are filed
via the XXXXX system or any successor system. The Trustee shall have no responsibility to determine whether any such filings have been made.
29
(c) Delivery of the reports and documents described in subsection (b)
above to the Trustee is for informational purposes only, and the Trustee’s receipt of such shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Company’s
compliance with any of its covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to conclusively rely on an Officers’ Certificate).
(d) If, at any time during the six-month period beginning on, and
including, the date that is six months after the last original issuance date of the Notes (which original issuance date will be deemed, if the Initial Purchasers exercise their option to purchase additional Notes under the Purchase Agreement, to be
the last date of settlement of such exercise) (the “Original Issuance Date”), the Company fails to timely file any document or report that it is required to file with the Commission pursuant to Section 13 or
15(d) of the Exchange Act, as applicable (after giving effect to all applicable grace periods thereunder and other than reports on Form 6-K to the extent that the Company continues to satisfy the “current public information” requirements of Rule
144), or the Notes are not otherwise freely tradable pursuant to Rule 144 by Holders other than the Company’s Affiliates or Holders that were the Company’s Affiliates at any time during the three months immediately preceding (as a result of
restrictions pursuant to U.S. securities laws or the terms of this Indenture or the Notes), the Company shall pay Special Interest on the Notes. Such Special Interest shall accrue on the Notes at the rate of (i) 0.25% per annum of the principal
amount of Notes outstanding for each of the first 90 days and (ii) 0.50% per annum of the principal amount of the Notes outstanding for each day from and including the 91st day, in each case, during such period for which the Company’s
failure to file has occurred and is continuing or the Notes are not otherwise freely tradable pursuant to Rule 144 by Holders other than the Company’s Affiliates (or Holders that were the Company’s Affiliates at any time during the three months
immediately preceding) as a result of restrictions pursuant to U.S. securities laws or the terms of this Indenture or the Notes. As used in this Section 4.06(d), documents or reports that the Company is required to “file” with the Commission
pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act does not include documents or reports that the Company furnishes to the Commission pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act.
(e) If, and for so long as, the restrictive legend on the Notes
specified in Section 2.05(c) has not been removed (or deemed removed), the Notes are assigned a restricted CUSIP number or the Notes are not otherwise freely tradable pursuant to Rule 144 by Holders other than the Company’s Affiliates or Holders
that were the Company’s Affiliates at any time during the three months immediately preceding (as a result of restrictions pursuant to U.S. securities laws or the terms of this Indenture or the Notes) as of the 380th day after the Original Issuance
Date of the Notes, the Company shall pay Special Interest on the Notes at a rate equal to 0.50% per annum of the principal amount of Notes outstanding until the restrictive legend on the Notes has been removed in accordance with Section 2.05(c),
the Notes are assigned an unrestricted CUSIP number and the Notes are freely tradable pursuant to Rule 144 by Holders other than the Company’s Affiliates (or Holders that were the Company’s Affiliates at any time during the three months immediately
preceding) without restrictions pursuant to U.S. securities laws or the terms of this Indenture or the Notes.
30
(f) Special Interest will be payable in arrears on each Special
Interest Payment Date as set forth in Section 2.03.
(g) Subject to the immediately succeeding sentence, the Special
Interest that is payable in accordance with Section 4.06(d) or Section 4.06(e) shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, any Special Interest that may be payable as a result of the Company’s election pursuant to Section 6.02. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, in no event shall any Special Interest that may accrue pursuant to Section 4.06(d) and Section 4.06(e), together with any Special Interest that may accrue in the event the Company elects to pay Special Interest in respect of an Event of
Default relating to its failure to comply with its obligations as set forth under 0, accrue at an aggregate rate in excess of 0.50% per annum, in each case, as a result of the Company’s failure to timely file any document or report that it is
required to file with the SEC pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, regardless of the number of such events or such circumstances giving rise to the requirement to pay such Special Interest. Such Special Interest will be the
exclusive remedy available to Holders of the Notes for a failure of the Notes to become freely tradable pursuant to Rule 144 by Holders other than the Company’s Affiliates (or Holders that were the Company’s Affiliates at any time during the three
months immediately preceding) as a result of restrictions pursuant to U.S. securities laws or the terms of this Indenture or the Notes.
(h) If Special Interest is payable by the Company pursuant to Section
4.06(d) or Section 4.06(e), the Company shall deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate to that effect stating (i) the amount of such Special Interest that is payable and (ii) the date on which such Special Interest is payable. Unless and
until a Responsible Officer of the Trustee receives at the Corporate Trust Office such a certificate, the Trustee may assume without inquiry that no such Special Interest is payable. If the Company has paid Special Interest directly to the Persons
entitled to it, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate setting forth the particulars of such payment.
Section 4.07. Stay, Extension and Usury Laws. The Company covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it
shall not at any time insist upon, plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay, extension or usury law or other law that would prohibit or forgive the Company from paying all or any portion of the principal
of or any Special Interest on the Notes as contemplated herein, wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, or that may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Company (to the extent it may lawfully do so)
hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it will not, by resort to any such law, hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of
every such power as though no such law had been enacted.
Section 4.08. Compliance Certificate; Statements as to Defaults. The Company shall deliver to the Trustee within 120 days
after the end of each fiscal year of the Company (beginning with the fiscal year ending on December 31, 2021) an Officers’ Certificate stating whether the signers thereof have knowledge of any failure by the Company to comply with all conditions and
covenants then required to be performed under this Indenture and, if so, specifying each such failure and the nature thereof.
31
In addition, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee, as soon as possible and in any event within 30 days after the occurrence of any Event of Default or Default, an Officers’ Certificate setting
forth the details of such Event of Default or Default, its status and the action that the Company is taking or proposing to take in respect thereof.
Section 4.09. Further Instruments and Acts. Upon request of the Trustee, the Company will execute and deliver such
further instruments and do such further acts as may be reasonably necessary or proper to carry out more effectively the purposes of this Indenture.
(a) All payments and deliveries made by the Company with respect to
the Notes, including, but not limited to, payments of principal (including, if applicable, the Redemption Price and the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price), payments of Special Interest, if any, and payments of cash and/or deliveries of Ordinary
Shares (together with payments of cash in lieu of fractional Ordinary Shares) upon conversion, shall be made without withholding or deduction for, or on account of, any present or future taxes, duties, assessments or governmental charges of
whatever nature imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by or within Israel, or any other jurisdiction in which the Company is or is deemed to be organized or resident for tax purposes or from or through which payments or deliveries by or
on behalf of the Company with respect to the Notes are made or deemed made or by or within any political subdivision thereof or any taxing authority therein or thereof having power to tax (each, a “Relevant Taxing
Jurisdiction”), unless such withholding or deduction is required by law. In the event that any such taxes, duties, assessments or governmental charges imposed or levied by or on behalf of a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction are required to be
withheld or deducted from any payments or deliveries made by the Company or the Paying Agent, the Company shall pay to each Holder such additional amounts (“Additional Amounts”) as may be necessary to ensure
that the net amount received after such withholding or deduction (and after deducting any taxes on the Additional Amounts) shall equal the amounts that would have been received had no such withholding or deduction been required; provided that no Additional Amounts shall be payable:
(i) for or on account of:
(A) any tax, duty, assessment or other governmental charge that would not have been imposed but for:
(1) (I) except solely with respect to any Israeli taxes withheld or deducted from payments of Special Interest, if any, on a Note, the Holder or beneficial owner of
such Note being (x) an Israeli resident for Israeli tax purposes or is otherwise subject to tax in Israel due to having permanent establishment or other nexus to Israel or (y) a non-Israeli corporation, for which Israeli residents (i) have a
controlling interest of more than 25% in such non-Israeli corporation or (ii) are the beneficiaries of, or are entitled to, 25% or more of the revenues or profits of such non-Israeli corporation (whether directly or indirectly), or (II) in the case
of a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction other than Israel, the existence of any present or former connection between the Holder or beneficial owner of such Note (or between a fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member or shareholder of, or possessor of power
over, the relevant Holder or beneficial owner, if the relevant Holder or beneficial owner is an estate, nominee, trust, partnership, limited liability company or corporation) and the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction, other than merely holding,
beneficially owning or enforcing rights under such Note or the receipt of payments thereunder;
32
(2) the presentation of such Note (in cases in which presentation is required) more than 30 days after the later of (x) the date on which such payment or delivery first
becomes due and (y) the date on which payment or delivery thereof is duly provided, except to the extent that the Holder or beneficial owner or such other person would have been entitled to Additional Amounts on presenting the Note for payment on any
date during such 30-day period; or
(3) except solely with respect to any Israeli taxes withheld or deducted from payments of Special Interest, if any, on a Note (other than any Conversion Consideration
Withholding), the failure of the Holder (or, in the case of a Global Note, the relevant beneficial owner acquiring beneficial ownership of the consideration due upon conversion) to comply with a timely request from the Company to provide
certification, information, documents or other evidence concerning such Holder’s or beneficial owner’s nationality, residence (including a “Declaration of Status for Israeli Income Tax Purposes” by such Holder or beneficial owner confirming
eligibility for an exemption from Israeli Capital Gain Tax solely upon a conversion or redemption), identity or connection with such Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction, or to make any filing for exemption to which it is entitled or satisfy any other
reasonable reporting requirement relating to such matters, if and to the extent that such Holder or beneficial owner is legally able to comply with such request and due and timely compliance with such request is required by statute, treaty,
regulation or administrative practice of the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction in order to reduce or eliminate any withholding or deduction as to which Additional Amounts would have otherwise been payable to such Holder or beneficial owner;
(B) any estate, inheritance, gift, use, sales, transfer, excise,
personal property or similar tax, assessment or other governmental charge;
33
(C) any tax, duty, assessment or other governmental charge that is
payable otherwise than by withholding or deduction from payments under or with respect to the Notes;
(D) any tax, assessment, withholding or deduction required by
sections 1471 through 1474 of the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“FATCA”), any current or future U.S. Treasury Regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder, any law, regulation or
other official guidance enacted in any jurisdiction implementing FATCA, any intergovernmental agreement between the United States and any other jurisdiction to implement the foregoing or any law enacted by such other jurisdiction to give effect to
such agreement, or any agreement with the U.S. Internal Revenue Service under FATCA;
(E) any tax, assessment or other governmental charge imposed in
connection with a Note presented for payment (where presentation is required for payment) by or on behalf of a Holder or beneficial owner who would have been able to avoid such tax, assessment or governmental charge by presenting the relevant Note
to, or otherwise accepting payment from, another Paying Agent; or
(F) any combination of taxes referred to in the preceding clauses
(A), (B), (C), (D) and (E); or
(ii) with respect to any payment of the principal of (including the Redemption Price and the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, if applicable) and Special Interest on such
Note, if any, or the payment of cash and/or delivery of Ordinary Shares (together with payment of cash in lieu of fractional Ordinary Shares) upon conversion of such Note to any Person who is a fiduciary, partnership or Person other than the sole
beneficial owner of that payment to the extent that such payment would be required to be included in the income under the laws of the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction, for tax purposes, of a beneficiary or settlor with respect to the fiduciary, a partner
or member of that partnership or a beneficial owner who the Company knows at the time of the payment or delivery would not have been entitled to such Additional Amounts had that beneficiary, settlor, partner, member or beneficial owner been the
Holder thereof.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the limitations on the Company’s obligation to pay Additional Amounts set forth in Section 4.10(a)(i)(A)(3) shall not apply if the provision of any certification,
identification, information, documentation or other reporting requirement described in Section 4.10(a)(i)(A)(3) would be materially more onerous, in form, in procedure or in substance of information disclosed, to a Holder or beneficial owner of a
Note than comparable information or other reporting requirements imposed under U.S. tax law, regulations and administrative practice (such as U.S. Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8BEN-E and W-9), provided that
for the purposes of this paragraph, the provision of a “Declaration of Status for Israeli Income Tax Purposes” solely upon a conversion or redemption by a Holder or beneficial owner of a Note shall not be considered materially more onerous than
comparable information or other reporting requirements under U.S. tax law, regulations and administrative practice (such as U.S. Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8BEN-E and W-9). For the avoidance of doubt, no Holder or beneficial owner of a Note
shall have any obligation to establish eligibility for a reduced (or zero) withholding tax rate under any income tax treaty or to obtain a non-Israeli tax certificate (or similar approval) from a non-Israeli tax authority in order to receive
Additional Amounts.
34
(b) If the Company is required to make any deduction or withholding
from any payments or deliveries with respect to the Notes, the Company will deliver to the Trustee official tax receipts evidencing the remittance to the relevant tax authorities of the amounts so withheld or deducted. Copies of such receipts shall
be made available to Holders or beneficial owners (as applicable) of the Notes upon request.
(c) Whenever there is mentioned in any context the payment of
principal of (including the Redemption Price and the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, if applicable), the payment of Special Interest, if any, on, or the payment of cash and/or the delivery of Ordinary Shares (together with payment of cash in
lieu of fractional Ordinary Shares) upon conversion of any Note or any other amount payable with respect to such Note, such mention shall be deemed to include payment of Additional Amounts provided for in this Indenture to the extent that, in such
context, Additional Amounts are, were or would be payable in respect thereof.
(d) The Company shall promptly pay when due any present or future
stamp, court or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies that arise in any Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction from the execution, delivery or registration of each Note or any other document or instrument referred
to herein or therein, except for taxes, charges or similar levies resulting from a transfer of Notes other than the initial sale by the Initial Purchasers and except as provided in Section 2.06, Section 14.02(d) and Section 14.02(e).
(e) All payments and deliveries made under or with respect to the

(f) The above obligations will survive termination, defeasance or discharge of the Indenture or any transfer by a Holder or beneficial owner of its notes and will apply mutatis mutandis to any
jurisdiction in which any successor to us is then, for tax purposes, incorporated, organized or resident or doing business (or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein) or any jurisdiction from or through which payment or
delivery under or with respect to the notes is made or deemed made by or on behalf of such successor (or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein).

with May 15, 2022, and (ii) at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing, within 30 days after receipt by the Company of any such request (or such lesser time as the Trustee may reasonably request in order to enable it to timely provide

practicable, all information as to the names and addresses of the Holders contained in the most recent list furnished to it as provided in Section 5.01 or maintained by the Trustee in its capacity as Note Registrar, if so acting. The Trustee may

Section 6.02. Acceleration; Rescission and Annulment. If one or more Events of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing (whatever the reason for such Event of Default and whether it shall be voluntary or involuntary or be effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any
administrative or governmental body), then, and in each and every such case (other than an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(i) or Section 6.01(j) with respect to the Company), unless the principal of all of the Notes shall have already
become due and payable, either the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding determined in accordance with Section 8.04, by notice in writing to the Company (and to the Trustee if given by
Holders), may (and the Trustee, at the written request of such Holders, shall) declare 100% of the principal of, and any accrued and unpaid Special Interest on, if any, all the Notes to be due and payable immediately, and upon any such declaration
the same shall become and shall automatically be immediately due and payable, anything contained in this Indenture or in the Notes to the contrary notwithstanding. If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(i) or Section 6.01(j) with respect
to the Company (and not solely one or more of its Subsidiaries) occurs and is continuing, 100% of the principal of, and accrued and unpaid Special Interest, if any, on, all Notes shall become and shall automatically be immediately due and payable.
The immediately preceding paragraph, however, is subject to the conditions that if, at any time after the principal of the Notes shall have been so declared due and payable, and before any judgment or
decree for the payment of the monies due shall have been obtained or entered as hereinafter provided, the Company shall pay or shall deposit with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay installments of any accrued and unpaid Special Interest upon all
Notes and the principal of any and all Notes that shall have become due otherwise than by acceleration (with interest on overdue installments of any accrued and unpaid Special Interest, and on such principal at the then-applicable Special Interest
rate only and to the extent any Special Interest is payable at such time and to the extent that payment of such interest is enforceable under applicable law) and amounts due to the Trustee pursuant to Section 7.06, and if (1) rescission would not
conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction and (2) any and all existing Events of Default under this Indenture, other than the non-payment of the principal of and accrued and unpaid Special Interest, if any, on Notes
that shall have become due solely by such acceleration, shall have been cured or waived pursuant to Section 6.09, then and in every such case (except as provided in the immediately succeeding sentence) the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal
amount of the Notes then outstanding, by written notice to the Company and to the Trustee, may waive (including by way of consents obtained in connection with a repurchase of, or tender or exchange offer for, the Notes) all past Defaults or Events of
Default with respect to the Notes and rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences and such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured for every purpose of this Indenture;
but no such waiver or rescission and annulment shall extend to or shall affect any subsequent Default or Event of Default, or shall impair any right consequent thereon. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no such waiver or rescission
and annulment shall extend to or shall affect any Default or Event of Default resulting from (i) the non-payment of the principal (including the Redemption Price and the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, if applicable) of, or any accrued and
unpaid Special Interest on, any Notes, or (ii) a failure to pay or deliver, as the case may be, the consideration due upon conversion of the Notes.
38
Section 6.03. Special Interest. Notwithstanding anything in this Indenture or in the Notes to the contrary, to the extent
the Company elects, the sole remedy for an Event of Default relating to the Company’s failure to comply with its obligations as set forth in Section 4.06(b) shall after the occurrence of such an Event of Default consist exclusively of the right to
receive Special Interest on the Notes at a rate equal to (i) 0.25% per annum of the principal amount of the Notes outstanding for the first 180 days during which such Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, beginning on, and including, the
date on which such Event of Default first occurs, and (ii) 0.50% per annum of the principal amount of the Notes outstanding for each day during the next 180-day period during which such Event of Default is continuing, beginning on, and including, the
181st day after such Event of Default first occurred. If the Company so elects, such Special Interest shall be payable as set forth in Section 2.03. On the 361st day after such Event of Default (if the Event of Default relating to the Company’s
failure to file is not cured or waived prior to such 361st day), the Notes shall be immediately subject to acceleration as provided in Section 6.02. The provisions of this paragraph will not affect the rights of Holders of any Notes in the event of
the occurrence of any Event of Default other than the Company’s failure to comply with its obligations as set forth in Section 4.06(b). In the event the Company does not elect to pay Special Interest following an Event of Default in accordance with
this 0 or the Company elected to make such payment but does not pay the Special Interest when due, the Notes shall be immediately subject to acceleration as provided in Section 6.02.
In order to elect to pay Special Interest as the sole remedy during the first 360 days after the occurrence of any Event of Default described in the immediately preceding paragraph, the Company must
notify all Holders of the Notes, the Trustee and the Paying Agent in writing of such election prior to the beginning of such 360-day period. Upon the failure to timely give such notice, the Notes shall be immediately subject to acceleration as
provided in Section 6.02.
Special Interest that accrues on any Note pursuant to the provisions of this 0 shall be in addition to any Special Interest that may accrue on such Note pursuant to the provisions set forth in Section
4.06(d) and Section 4.06(e); provided, however, that in no event shall the rate of any such Special Interest payable under this 0, when taken together with any such
Special Interest payable as set forth in Section 4.06(d) as a result of the Company’s failure to timely file any document or report it is required to file with the SEC pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, exceed a total rate of 0.50%
per annum on any Note as a result of the Company’s failure to timely file any document or report it is required to file with the SEC pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, regardless of the number of such events or such circumstances
giving rise to the requirement to pay such Special Interest.
39
Section 6.04. Payments of Notes on Default; Suit Therefor. If an Event of Default described in clause (a) or (b) of
Section 6.01 shall have occurred, the Company shall, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to the Trustee, for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes, (i) the whole amount then due and payable on the Notes for principal and Special Interest, if any, with
no interest accruing on any overdue principal and Special Interest (if any), unless Special Interest is payable pursuant to this Indenture on the required payment date, in which case such amounts will accrue interest per annum at the then-applicable
rate of Special Interest and to the extent that Special Interest remains payable pursuant to this Indenture, subject to the enforceability of such interest pursuant to applicable law, and (ii) in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be
sufficient to cover any amounts due to the Trustee under Section 7.06. If the Company shall fail to pay such amounts forthwith upon such demand, the Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an express trust, may institute a judicial proceeding for
the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, may prosecute such proceeding to judgment or final decree and may enforce the same against the Company or any other obligor upon the Notes and collect the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable in the
manner provided by law out of the property of the Company or any other obligor upon the Notes, wherever situated.
In the event there shall be pending proceedings for the bankruptcy or for the reorganization of the Company under Bankruptcy Law, or in case a receiver, assignee or trustee in bankruptcy or
reorganization, liquidator, sequestrator or similar official shall have been appointed for or taken possession of the Company, the property of the Company, or in the event of any other judicial proceedings relative to the Company upon the Notes, or
to the creditors or property of the Company, the Trustee, irrespective of whether the principal of the Notes shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made any
demand pursuant to the provisions of this Section 6.03, shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceedings or otherwise, to file and prove a claim or claims for the whole amount of principal and accrued and unpaid Special Interest,
if any, pursuant to the immediately preceding paragraph in respect of the Notes, and, in case of any judicial proceedings, to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents and to take such other actions as it may deem necessary or advisable
in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and of the Holders allowed in such judicial proceedings relative to the
Company on the Notes, its or their creditors, or its or their property, and to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims, and to distribute the same after the deduction of any amounts due to the
Trustee under Section 7.06; and any receiver, assignee or trustee in bankruptcy or reorganization, liquidator, custodian or similar official is hereby authorized by each of the Holders to make such payments to the Trustee, as administrative expenses,
and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due it for reasonable compensation, expenses, advances and disbursements, including agents and counsel fees, and
including any other amounts due to the Trustee under Section 7.06, incurred by it up to the date of such distribution. To the extent that such payment of reasonable compensation, expenses, advances and disbursements out of the estate in any such
proceedings shall be denied for any reason, payment of the same shall be secured by a lien on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, monies, securities and other property that the Holders of the Notes may be entitled to
receive in such proceedings, whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or arrangement or otherwise.
40
Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or
composition affecting such Holder or the rights of any Holder thereof, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.
All rights of action and of asserting claims under this Indenture, or under any of the Notes, may be enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Notes, or the production thereof at any
trial or other proceeding relative thereto, and any such suit or proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment shall, after provision for the payment of the
reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the Notes.
In any proceedings brought by the Trustee (and in any proceedings involving the interpretation of any provision of this Indenture to which the Trustee shall be a party) the Trustee shall be held to
represent all the Holders of the Notes, and it shall not be necessary to make any Holders of the Notes parties to any such proceedings.
In case the Trustee shall have proceeded to enforce any right under this Indenture and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned because of any waiver pursuant to Section 6.09 or any
rescission and annulment pursuant to Section 6.02 or for any other reason or shall have been determined adversely to the Trustee, then and in every such case the Company, the Holders and the Trustee shall, subject to any determination in such
proceeding, be restored respectively to their several positions and rights hereunder, and all rights, remedies and powers of the Company, the Holders and the Trustee shall continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted.
Section 6.05. Application of Monies Collected by Trustee. Any monies collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article 6
with respect to the Notes shall be applied in the following order, at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee for the distribution of such monies, upon presentation of the several Notes, and stamping thereon the payment, if only partially paid, and
upon surrender thereof, if fully paid:
First, to the payment of all amounts due to the Trustee and its agents under Section 7.06;
41
Second, in case the principal of the outstanding Notes shall not have become due and be unpaid, to the payment of any Special Interest on the Notes in default in
the order of the date due of the payments of such interest, with interest (to the extent that any such interest is payable pursuant to this Indenture and has been collected by the Trustee) upon such overdue payments at the rate of Special Interest,
if any, at such time, such payments to be made ratably to the Persons entitled thereto;
Third, in case the principal of the outstanding Notes shall have become due, by declaration or otherwise, and be unpaid to the payment of the whole amount
(including, if applicable, the payment of the Redemption Price and the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price) then owing and unpaid upon the Notes for principal and Special Interest, if any, with interest (to the extent that any such interest is
payable pursuant to this Indenture and has been collected by the Trustee) on the overdue principal and Special Interest, if any, at the rate of Special Interest, if any, at such time, and in case such monies shall be insufficient to pay in full the
whole amounts so due and unpaid upon the Notes, then to the payment of such principal (including, if applicable, the Redemption Price and the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price) and any Special Interest without preference or priority of principal
over Special Interest, or of any Special Interest over principal, or of any installment of Special Interest over any other installment of Special Interest, or of any Note over any other Note, ratably to the aggregate of such principal (including, if
applicable, the Redemption Price and the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price) and any accrued and unpaid Special Interest; and
Fourth, to the payment of the remainder, if any, to the Company.
Section 6.06. Proceedings by Holders. Except to enforce the right to receive payment of principal (including, if
applicable, the Redemption Price and the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price) or any Special Interest when due, or the right to receive payment or delivery of the consideration due upon conversion, no Holder of any Note shall have any right by virtue
of or by availing of any provision of this Indenture or the Notes to institute any suit, action or proceeding in equity or at law upon or under or with respect to this Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver, trustee, liquidator, custodian or
other similar official, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless:
(a) such Holder previously shall have given to the Trustee written
notice of an Event of Default and of the continuance thereof, as herein provided;
(b) Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the
Notes then outstanding shall have made written request upon the Trustee to institute such action, suit or proceeding in its own name as Trustee hereunder, provided that, in the event the Trustee receives
inconsistent or conflicting requests and indemnity from two or more groups of Holders, with each group of Holders representing less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of Notes outstanding, the Trustee, in its sole discretion, may
determine which action, if any, shall be taken;
42
(c) such Holders shall have provided to the Trustee such security or
indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against any loss, liability, claim or expense to be incurred therein or thereby;
(d) the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request
and offer of such security or indemnity, shall have not complied with such request; and
(e) no direction that, in the opinion of the Trustee, is inconsistent
with such written request shall have been given to the Trustee by the Holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding within such 60-day period pursuant to Section 6.09,
it being understood and intended, and being expressly covenanted by the taker and Holder of every Note with every other taker and Holder and the Trustee that no one or more of such Holders shall have any right in any
manner whatever by virtue of or by availing of any provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other Holder, or to obtain or seek to obtain priority over or preference to any other such Holder, or to enforce any
right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal, ratable and common benefit of all Holders (except as otherwise provided herein). The Trustee shall not have an affirmative duty to ascertain whether or not such
actions or forbearances are unduly prejudicial to the rights of such Holders. For the protection and enforcement of this Section 6.06, each and every Holder and the Trustee shall be entitled to such relief as can be given either at law or in equity.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture and any provision of any Note, each Holder shall have the right to receive payment or delivery, as the case may be, of (x) the principal (including
the Redemption Price and the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, if applicable) of, (y) accrued and unpaid Special Interest, if any, on, and (z) the consideration due upon conversion of, such Note, on or after the respective due dates expressed or
provided for in such Note or in this Indenture, or to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment or delivery, as the case may be.
Section 6.07. Proceedings by Trustee. In case of an Event of Default, the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to
protect and enforce the rights vested in it by this Indenture by such appropriate judicial proceedings as are necessary to protect and enforce any of such rights, either by suit in equity or by action at law or by proceeding in bankruptcy or
otherwise, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement contained in this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted in this Indenture, or to enforce any other legal or equitable right vested in the Trustee by this
Indenture or by law. The Trustee reserves the right to file a proof of claim or any other document necessary in order to have claims of the Holders and the Trustee allowed in any such judicial proceedings.
Section 6.08. Remedies Cumulative and Continuing. Except as provided in the last paragraph of Section 2.06, all powers
and remedies given by this Article 6 to the Trustee or to the Holders shall, to the extent permitted by law, be deemed cumulative and not exclusive of any thereof or of any other powers and remedies available to the Trustee or the Holders of the
Notes, by judicial proceedings or otherwise, to enforce the performance or observance of the covenants and agreements contained in this Indenture, and no delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any of the Notes to exercise any right or
power accruing upon any Default or Event of Default shall impair any such right or power, or shall be construed to be a waiver of any such Default or Event of Default or any acquiescence therein; and, subject to the provisions of Section 6.06, every
power and remedy given by this Article 6 or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as shall be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders.
43
Section 6.09. Direction of Proceedings and Waiver of Defaults by Majority of Holders. The Holders of a majority of the
aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding determined in accordance with Section 8.04 shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising
any trust or power conferred on the Trustee with respect to the Notes; provided, however, that Article 9 such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law
or with this Indenture, and Article 10 the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee that is not inconsistent with such direction. The Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that it determines is unduly prejudicial to the
rights of any other Holder or that would involve the Trustee in personal liability. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding determined in accordance with Section 8.04 may on behalf of the Holders
of all of the Notes waive (including by way of consents obtained in connection with a repurchase of, or tender or exchange offer for, the Notes) any past Default or Event of Default hereunder and its consequences except (i) a default in the payment
of accrued and unpaid Special Interest, if any, on, or the principal (including any Redemption Price and any Fundamental Change Repurchase Price) of, the Notes when due that has not been cured pursuant to the provisions of Section 6.01, (ii) a
failure by the Company to pay or deliver, as the case may be, the consideration due upon conversion of the Notes or (iii) a default in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which under Article 10 cannot be modified or amended without the consent
of each Holder of an outstanding Note affected. Upon any such waiver the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Notes shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other
Default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon. Whenever any Default or Event of Default hereunder shall have been waived as permitted by this Section 6.09, said Default or Event of Default shall for all purposes of the Notes and
this Indenture be deemed to have been cured and to be not continuing; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon.
Section 6.10. Notice of Defaults. The Trustee shall, within 90 days after the occurrence and continuance of a Default of
which a Responsible Officer has actual knowledge, deliver to all Holders notice of the Default; provided that, except in the case of a Default in the payment of the principal of (including the Redemption
Price and the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, if applicable), or any accrued and unpaid Special Interest on, any of the Notes or a Default in the payment or delivery of the consideration due upon conversion, the Trustee shall be protected in
withholding such notice if and so long as the Trustee in good faith determines that the withholding of such notice is in the interests of the Holders.
44
Section 6.11. Undertaking to Pay Costs. All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Note by its
acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may, in its discretion, require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it
as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, against any party litigant
in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant; provided that the provisions of this Section 6.11 (to the extent permitted by law) shall not
apply to any suit instituted by the Trustee, to any suit instituted by any Holder, or group of Holders, holding in the aggregate more than 10% in principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding determined in accordance with Section 8.04, or to
any suit instituted by any Holder for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of or any accrued and unpaid Special Interest, if any, on any Note (including, but not limited to, the Redemption Price and the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price,
if applicable) on or after the due date expressed or provided for in such Note or to any suit for the enforcement of the right to convert any Note, or receive the consideration due upon conversion, in accordance with the provisions of Article 14.
Section 7.01. Duties and Responsibilities of Trustee. The Trustee, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default and
after the curing or waiver of all Events of Default that may have occurred, undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture. In the event an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the
Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person’s own
affairs; provided that if an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers under this Indenture at the request or direction of any
of the Holders unless such Holders have provided to the Trustee indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it against any loss, liability, claim or expense that might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction.
No provision of this Indenture shall be construed to relieve the Trustee from liability for its own grossly negligent action, its own grossly negligent failure to act or its own willful misconduct,
except that:
(a) prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default and after the
curing or waiving of all Events of Default that may have occurred:
(i) the duties and obligations of the Trustee shall be determined solely by the express provisions of this Indenture, and the Trustee shall not be liable except for the
performance of such duties and obligations as are specifically set forth in this Indenture and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee; and
45
(ii) in the absence of gross negligence and willful misconduct on the part of the Trustee, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the
correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon any certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture; but, in the case of any such certificates or opinions that by any provisions hereof are
specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall be under a duty to examine the same to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture (but need not confirm or investigate the accuracy of any
mathematical calculations or other facts stated therein);
(b) the Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in
good faith by a Responsible Officer or Officers of the Trustee, unless it shall be proved that the Trustee was grossly negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts;
(c) the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action taken
or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the direction of the Holders of not less than a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding determined as provided in Section 8.04 relating to the
time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee, under this Indenture;
(d) whether or not therein provided, every provision of this
Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of, or affording protection to, the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this Section and Section 7.02;
(e) the Trustee shall not be liable in respect of any payment (as to
the correctness of amount, entitlement to receive or any other matters relating to payment) or notice effected by the Company or any Paying Agent or any records maintained by any co-Note Registrar with respect to the Notes;
(f) if any party fails to deliver a notice relating to an event the
fact of which, pursuant to this Indenture, requires notice to be sent to the Trustee, the Trustee may conclusively rely on its failure to receive such notice as reason to act as if no such event occurred, unless a Responsible Officer of the

Section 7.06. Compensation and Expenses of Trustee. The Company covenants and agrees to pay to the Trustee from time to
time, and the Trustee shall be entitled to, reasonable compensation for all services rendered by it hereunder in any capacity (which shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust) as
mutually agreed to in writing between the Trustee and the Company, and the Company will pay or reimburse the Trustee upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances reasonably incurred or made by the Trustee in accordance
with any of the provisions of this Indenture in any capacity thereunder (including the reasonable compensation and the costs, expenses and disbursements of its agents and counsel and of all Persons not regularly in its employ) except any such
expense, disbursement or advance as shall have been caused by its gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Company also covenants to indemnify the Trustee in any capacity under this Indenture and any other document or transaction entered into in
connection herewith and its agents and any authenticating agent for, and to hold them harmless against, any loss, claim (provided that the Company need not pay for settlement of any such claim made without its
consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), damage, liability or expense incurred without gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Trustee, its officers, directors, agents or employees, or such agent or authenticating
agent, as the case may be, and arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of this Indenture or in any other capacity hereunder, including the costs and expenses of defending themselves against any claim of liability in the
premises or the enforcement of this Section 7.06. The obligations of the Company under this Section 7.06 to compensate or indemnify the Trustee and to pay or reimburse the Trustee for expenses, disbursements and advances shall be secured by a senior
claim to which the Notes are hereby made subordinate on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee, except, subject to the effect of Section 6.05, funds held in trust herewith for the benefit of the Holders of particular Notes. The
Trustee’s right to receive payment of any amounts due under this Section 7.06 shall not be subordinate to any other liability or indebtedness of the Company. The obligation of the Company under this Section 7.06 shall survive the satisfaction and
discharge of this Indenture and the earlier resignation or removal of the Trustee. The Company need not pay for any settlement made without its consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The indemnification provided in this Section
7.06 shall extend to the officers, directors, agents and employees of the Trustee.
50
Without prejudice to any other rights available to the Trustee under applicable law, when the Trustee and its agents and any authenticating agent incur expenses or render services after an Event of
Default specified in Section 6.01(i) or Section 6.01(j) occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws.
Section 7.07. Officers’ Certificate as Evidence. Except as otherwise provided in Section 7.01, whenever in the
administration of the provisions of this Indenture the Trustee shall deem it necessary or desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking or omitting any action hereunder, such matter (unless other evidence in respect thereof be
herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Trustee, be deemed to be conclusively proved and established by an Officers’ Certificate delivered to the Trustee, and such Officers’
Certificate, in the absence of gross negligence and willful misconduct on the part of the Trustee, shall be full warrant to the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it under the provisions of this Indenture upon the faith thereof.
Section 7.08. Eligibility of Trustee. There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder which shall be a Person that is
eligible pursuant to the Trust Indenture Act (as if, for this purpose, the Trust Indenture Act were applicable hereto) to act as such and has a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000. If such Person publishes reports of condition at
least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of any supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section, the combined capital and surplus of such Person shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set
forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, it shall resign promptly in the manner and with the effect hereinafter specified in
this Article.
Section 7.09. Resignation or Removal of Trustee. Article 11 The Trustee may at any time resign by giving written notice
of such resignation to the Company and by delivering notice thereof to the Holders. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Company shall promptly appoint a successor trustee by written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which instrument
shall be delivered to the resigning Trustee and one copy to the successor trustee. If no successor trustee shall have been so appointed and have accepted appointment within 45 days after the giving of such notice of resignation to the Holders, the
resigning Trustee may, upon ten Business Days’ notice to the Company and the Holders, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor trustee, or any Holder who has been a bona fide holder of a Note or Notes for at
least six months (or since the date of this Indenture) may, subject to the provisions of Section 6.11, on behalf of himself or herself and all others similarly situated, petition any such court for the appointment of a successor trustee at the
expense of the Company. Such court may thereupon, after such notice, if any, as it may deem proper and prescribe, appoint a successor trustee.
51
(b) In case at any time any of the following shall occur:
(i) the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of Section 7.08 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Company or by any
such Holder, or
(ii) the Trustee shall become incapable of acting, or shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent, or a receiver of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed, or any
public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation,
then, in either case, the Company may by a Board Resolution remove the Trustee and appoint a successor trustee by written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the Trustee so
removed and one copy to the successor trustee, or, subject to the provisions of Section 6.11, any Holder who has been a bona fide holder of a Note or Notes for at least six months (or since the date of this Indenture) may, on behalf of himself or
herself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor trustee. Such court may thereupon, after such notice, if any, as it may deem proper and
prescribe, remove the Trustee and appoint a successor trustee.
(c) The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the
Notes at the time outstanding, as determined in accordance with Section 8.04, may at any time remove the Trustee and nominate a successor trustee that shall be deemed appointed as successor trustee unless within ten days after notice to the Company
of such nomination the Company objects thereto, in which case the Trustee so removed or any Holder, upon the terms and conditions and otherwise as in Section 7.09(a) provided, may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for an appointment of a
successor trustee.
(d) Any resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a
successor trustee pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section 7.09 shall become effective upon acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee as provided in Section 7.10.
Section 7.10. Acceptance by Successor Trustee. Any successor trustee appointed as provided in Section 7.09 shall execute,
acknowledge and deliver to the Company and to its predecessor trustee an instrument accepting such appointment hereunder, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the predecessor trustee shall become effective and such successor trustee, without
any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, duties and obligations of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as Trustee herein; but, nevertheless, on the written request of the
Company or of the successor trustee, the trustee ceasing to act shall, upon payment of any amounts then due it pursuant to the provisions of Section 7.06, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor trustee all the rights and
powers of the trustee so ceasing to act. Upon request of any such successor trustee, the Company shall execute any and all instruments in writing for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor trustee all such rights and
powers. Any trustee ceasing to act shall, nevertheless, retain a senior claim to which the Notes are hereby made subordinate on all money or property held or collected by such trustee as such, except for funds held in trust for the benefit of
Holders of particular Notes, to secure any amounts then due it pursuant to the provisions of Section 7.06.
52
No successor trustee shall accept appointment as provided in this Section 7.10 unless at the time of such acceptance such successor trustee shall be eligible under the provisions of Section 7.08.
Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor trustee as provided in this Section 7.10, each of the Company and the successor trustee, at the written direction and at the expense of the Company shall
deliver or cause to be delivered notice of the succession of such trustee hereunder to the Holders at their addresses as they shall appear on the Note Register. If the Company fails to deliver such notice within ten days after acceptance of
appointment by the successor trustee, the successor trustee shall cause such notice to be delivered at the expense of the Company.
Section 7.11. Succession by Merger, Etc. Any corporation or other entity into which the Trustee may be merged or
converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation or other entity resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation or other entity succeeding to all or substantially all
of the corporate trust business of the Trustee (including the administration of this Indenture), shall be the successor to the Trustee hereunder without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto;
provided that in the case of any corporation or other entity succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Trustee such corporation or other entity shall be eligible under the
provisions of Section 7.08.
In case at the time such successor to the Trustee shall succeed to the trusts created by this Indenture, any of the Notes shall have been authenticated but not delivered, any such successor to the
Trustee may adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor trustee or authenticating agent appointed by such predecessor trustee, and deliver such Notes so authenticated; and in case at that time any of the Notes shall not have been
authenticated, any successor to the Trustee or an authenticating agent appointed by such successor trustee may authenticate such Notes either in the name of any predecessor trustee hereunder or in the name of the successor trustee; and in all such
cases such certificates shall have the full force which it is anywhere in the Notes or in this Indenture provided that the certificate of the Trustee shall have; provided, however,
that the right to adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor trustee or to authenticate Notes in the name of any predecessor trustee shall apply only to its successor or successors by merger, conversion or consolidation.
Section 7.12. Trustee’s Application for Instructions from the Company. Any application by the Trustee for written
instructions from the Company (other than with regard to any action proposed to be taken or omitted to be taken by the Trustee that affects the rights of the Holders of the Notes under this Indenture) may, at the option of the Trustee, set forth in
writing any action proposed to be taken or omitted by the Trustee under this Indenture and the date on and/or after which such action shall be taken or such omission shall be effective. The Trustee shall not be liable to the Company for any action
taken by, or omission of, the Trustee in accordance with a proposal included in such application on or after the date specified in such application (which date shall not be less than three Business Days after the date any Officer that the Company has
indicated to the Trustee should receive such application actually receives such application, unless any such Officer shall have consented in writing to any earlier date), unless, prior to taking any such action (or the effective date in the case of
any omission), the Trustee shall have received written instructions in accordance with this Indenture in response to such application specifying the action to be taken or omitted.
53
Section 8.01. Action by Holders. Whenever in this Indenture it is provided that the Holders of a specified percentage of
the aggregate principal amount of the Notes may take any action (including the making of any demand or request, the giving of any notice, consent or waiver or the taking of any other action), the fact that at the time of taking any such action, the
Holders of such specified percentage have joined therein may be evidenced Article 12 by any instrument or any number of instruments of similar tenor executed by Holders in person or by agent or proxy appointed in writing, or Article 13 by the record
of the Holders voting in favor thereof at any meeting of Holders duly called and held in accordance with the provisions of Article 9, or Article 14 by a combination of such instrument or instruments and any such record of such a meeting of Holders.
Whenever the Company or the Trustee solicits the taking of any action by the Holders of the Notes, the Company or the Trustee may, but shall not be required to, fix in advance of such solicitation, a date as the record date for determining Holders
entitled to take such action. The record date if one is selected shall be not more than fifteen days prior to the date of commencement of solicitation of such action.
Section 8.02. Proof of Execution by Holders. Subject to the provisions of Section 7.01, Section 7.02 and Section 9.05,
proof of the execution of any instrument by a Holder or its agent or proxy shall be sufficient if made in accordance with such reasonable rules and regulations as may be prescribed by the Trustee or in such manner as shall be satisfactory to the
Trustee. The holding of Notes shall be proved by the Note Register or by a certificate of the Note Registrar. The record of any Holders’ meeting shall be proved in the manner provided in Section 9.06.
Section 8.03. Who Are Deemed Absolute Owners. The Company, the Trustee, any authenticating agent, any Paying Agent, any
Conversion Agent and any Note Registrar may deem the Person in whose name a Note shall be registered upon the Note Register to be, and may treat it as, the absolute owner of such Note (whether or not such Note shall be overdue and notwithstanding any
notation of ownership or other writing thereon made by any Person other than the Company or any Note Registrar) for the purpose of receiving payment of or on account of the principal (including any Redemption Price and any Fundamental Change
Repurchase Price) of and (subject to Section 2.03) accrued and unpaid Special Interest on such Note, for conversion of such Note and for all other purposes under this Indenture; and neither the Company nor the Trustee nor any Paying Agent nor any
Conversion Agent nor any Note Registrar shall be affected by any notice to the contrary. The sole registered holder of a Global Note shall be the Depositary or its nominee. All such payments or deliveries so made to any Holder for the time being,
or upon its order, shall be valid, and, to the extent of the sums or Ordinary Shares so paid or delivered, effectual to satisfy and discharge the liability for monies payable or shares deliverable upon any such Note. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in this Indenture or the Notes following an Event of Default, any owner of a beneficial interest in a Global Note may directly enforce against the Company, without the consent, solicitation, proxy, authorization or any other action of the
Depositary or any other Person, such holder’s right to exchange such beneficial interest for a Note in certificated form in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture.
54
Section 8.04. Company-Owned Notes Disregarded. In determining whether the Holders of the requisite aggregate principal
amount of Notes have concurred in any direction, consent, waiver or other action under this Indenture, Notes that are owned by the Company, by any Subsidiary thereof or by any Affiliate of the Company or any Subsidiary thereof shall be disregarded
and deemed not to be outstanding for the purpose of any such determination; provided that for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, consent,
waiver or other action only Notes that a Responsible Officer actually knows are so owned shall be so disregarded. Notes so owned that have been pledged in good faith may be regarded as outstanding for the purposes of this Section 8.04 if the pledgee
shall establish to the satisfaction of the Trustee the pledgee’s right to so act with respect to such Notes and that the pledgee is not the Company, a Subsidiary thereof or an Affiliate of the Company or a Subsidiary thereof. In the case of a
dispute as to such right, any decision by the Trustee taken upon the advice of counsel shall be full protection to the Trustee. Upon request of the Trustee, the Company shall furnish to the Trustee promptly an Officers’ Certificate listing and
identifying all Notes, if any, known by the Company to be owned or held by or for the account of any of the above described Persons; and, subject to Section 7.01, the Trustee shall be entitled to accept such Officers’ Certificate as conclusive
evidence of the facts therein set forth and of the fact that all Notes not listed therein are outstanding for the purpose of any such determination.
Section 8.05. Revocation of Consents; Future Holders Bound. At any time prior to (but not after) the evidencing to the
Trustee, as provided in Section 8.01, of the taking of any action by the Holders of the percentage of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes specified in this Indenture in connection with such action, any Holder of a Note that is shown by the
evidence to be included in the Notes the Holders of which have consented to such action may, by filing written notice with the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office and upon proof of holding as provided in Section 8.02, revoke such action so far as
concerns such Note. Except as aforesaid, any such action taken by the Holder of any Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders and owners of such Note and of any Notes issued in exchange or substitution
therefor or upon registration of transfer thereof, irrespective of whether any notation in regard thereto is made upon such Note or any Note issued in exchange or substitution therefor or upon registration of transfer thereof.
55

all Notes then outstanding, and if the Company and the Trustee are either present by duly authorized representatives or have, before or after the meeting, waived notice.

authorize or permit, by reason of any call of a meeting of Holders or any rights expressly or impliedly conferred hereunder to make such call, any hindrance or delay in the exercise of any right or rights conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or
to the Holders under any of the provisions of this Indenture or of the Notes.

the Company’s expense, may from time to time and at any time enter into an indenture or indentures supplemental hereto for one or more of the following purposes:

or facilitate the administration of trusts under this Indenture by more than one Trustee;
(i) irrevocably elect or eliminate a Settlement Method and/or a

58
(j) in connection with any Merger Event, to provide that the Notes
are convertible into Reference Property, subject to the provisions of Section 14.02, and make such related changes to the terms of the Notes to the extent expressly required by Section 14.07;

Upon the written request of the Company, the Trustee is hereby authorized to, and shall join with the Company in the execution of any such supplemental indenture, to make any further appropriate
agreements and stipulations that may be therein contained, but the Trustee shall not be obligated to, but may in its discretion, enter into any supplemental indenture that affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or
otherwise.
Any supplemental indenture authorized by the provisions of this Section 10.01 may be executed by the Company and the Trustee without the consent of the Holders of any of the Notes at the time
outstanding, notwithstanding any of the provisions of Section 10.02.
Section 10.02. Supplemental Indentures with Consent of Holders. With the consent (evidenced as provided in Article 8)
of the Holders of at least a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding (determined in accordance with Article 8 and including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a repurchase of, or tender or
exchange offer for, Notes), the Company, at the Company’s expense, may from time to time and at any time enter into an indenture or indentures supplemental hereto for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating
any of the provisions of this Indenture or any supplemental indenture or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders; provided, however, that, without the
consent of each Holder of an outstanding Note affected, no such supplemental indenture shall:
(a) reduce the amount of Notes whose Holders must consent to an
amendment;
(b) reduce the rate of or extend the stated time for payment of any
Special Interest on any Note;
(c) reduce the principal of or extend the Maturity Date of any Note;
(d) make any change that adversely affects the conversion rights of
any Notes;

(f) make any Note payable in a currency, or at a place of payment,
other than that stated in the Note;
(g) change the ranking of the Notes;
(h) impair the right of any Holder to institute suit for the
enforcement of any payment on or with respect to, or delivery of the consideration due upon conversion of, such Holder’s Notes on or after the respective due dates therefor;
(i) change the Company’s obligation to pay Additional Amounts in
respect of any Note; or
(j) make any change in this Article 10 that requires each Holder’s
consent or in the waiver provisions in Section 6.02 or Section 6.09.
The Company may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Persons entitled to consent to any indenture supplemental hereto. If a record date is fixed, the
Holders on such record date, or their duly designated proxies, and only such Persons, shall be entitled to consent to such supplemental indenture, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided, that unless such consent
shall have become effective by virtue of the requisite percentage having been obtained prior to the date which is 90 days after such record date, any such consent previously given shall automatically and without further action by any Holder be
cancelled and of no further effect.
Upon the written request of the Company, and upon the filing with the Trustee of evidence of the consent of Holders as aforesaid and subject to Section 10.05, the Trustee shall join with the Company in
the execution of such supplemental indenture unless such supplemental indenture affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise, in which case the Trustee may in its discretion, but shall not be obligated to,
enter into such supplemental indenture.
Holders do not need under this Section 10.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture. It shall be sufficient if such Holders approve the substance thereof. After any
such supplemental indenture becomes effective, the Company shall send to the Holders a notice briefly describing such supplemental indenture. However, the failure to give such notice to all the Holders, or any defect in the notice, will not impair or
affect the validity of the supplemental indenture.
Section 10.03. Effect of Supplemental Indentures. Upon the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to the
provisions of this Article 10, this Indenture shall be and be deemed to be modified and amended in accordance therewith and the respective rights, limitation of rights, obligations, duties and immunities under this Indenture of the Trustee, the
Company and the Holders shall thereafter be determined, exercised and enforced hereunder subject in all respects to such modifications and amendments and all the terms and conditions of any such supplemental indenture shall be and be deemed to be
part of the terms and conditions of this Indenture for any and all purposes. This Indenture provides for the payment by the Company of all of the Trustee’s fees and expenses, including counsel fees and expenses, associated with reviewing and
executing any supplemental indenture hereto.
60
Section 10.04. Notation on Notes. Notes authenticated and delivered after the execution of any supplemental indenture
pursuant to the provisions of this Article 10 may, at the Company’s request and expense, bear a notation in form approved by the Trustee as to any matter provided for in such supplemental indenture. If the Company or the Trustee shall so determine,
new Notes so modified as to conform, in the opinion of the Trustee and the Company, to any modification of this Indenture contained in any such supplemental indenture may, at the Company’s expense, be prepared and executed by the Company,
authenticated by the Trustee (or an authenticating agent duly appointed by the Trustee pursuant to Section 18.10) and delivered in exchange for the Notes then outstanding, upon surrender of such Notes then outstanding.
Section 10.05. Evidence of Compliance of Supplemental Indenture to Be Furnished Trustee. In addition to the documents
required by Section 18.05Section 18.05, the Trustee shall receive an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel as conclusive evidence that any supplemental indenture executed pursuant hereto complies with the requirements of this Article 10 is
permitted or authorized by this Indenture hereto, and is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms.
Section 11.01. Company May Consolidate, Etc. on Certain Terms. Subject to the provisions of Section 11.02, the Company
shall not consolidate with, merge with or into, or sell, convey, transfer or lease all or substantially all of the consolidated properties and assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, to another Person, unless:
(a) the resulting, surviving or transferee Person, if not the Company
(the “Successor Company”), shall be a corporation organized and existing under the laws of Israel, Bermuda, the British Virgin Islands, Cayman Islands, Guernsey, Jersey, the Netherlands, Switzerland,
Luxembourg, Ireland, the United Kingdom, the United States of America, any State thereof or the District of Columbia, and the Successor Company (if not the Company) shall expressly assume, by supplemental indenture all of the obligations of the
Company under the Notes and this Indenture (including the obligation to pay Additional Amounts as set forth in Section 4.10); and
(b) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Default
or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing under this Indenture.
61
For purposes of this Section 11.01, the sale, conveyance, transfer or lease of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of one or more Subsidiaries of the Company to another Person, which
properties and assets, if held by the Company instead of such Subsidiaries, would constitute all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Company on a consolidated basis, shall be deemed to be the sale, conveyance, transfer or lease
of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Company to another Person. The provisions of this Article 11 shall not apply to the Company’s conveyance, transfer, sale, lease or other disposition of all or substantially all of its
assets between or among the Company and one of the Company’s Wholly Owned Subsidiaries.
Section 11.02. Successor Corporation to Be Substituted. In case of any such consolidation, merger, sale, conveyance,
transfer or lease and upon the assumption by the Successor Company, by supplemental indenture, executed and delivered to the Trustee and satisfactory in form to the Trustee, of the due and punctual payment of the principal of and any accrued and
unpaid Special Interest on all of the Notes, the due and punctual delivery or payment, as the case may be, of any consideration due upon conversion of the Notes and the due and punctual performance of all of the covenants and conditions of this
Indenture to be performed by the Company, such Successor Company (if not the Company) shall succeed to and, except in the case of a lease of all or substantially all of the Company’s properties and assets, shall be substituted for the Company, with
the same effect as if it had been named herein as the party of the first part. Such Successor Company thereupon may cause to be signed, and may issue either in its own name or in the name of the Company any or all of the Notes issuable hereunder
which theretofore shall not have been signed by the Company and delivered to the Trustee; and, upon the order of such Successor Company instead of the Company and subject to all the terms, conditions and limitations in this Indenture prescribed, the
Trustee shall authenticate and shall deliver, or cause to be authenticated and delivered, any Notes that previously shall have been signed and delivered by the Officers of the Company to the Trustee for authentication, and any Notes that such
Successor Company thereafter shall cause to be signed and delivered to the Trustee for that purpose. All the Notes so issued shall in all respects have the same legal rank and benefit under this Indenture as the Notes theretofore or thereafter
issued in accordance with the terms of this Indenture as though all of such Notes had been issued at the date of the execution hereof. In the event of any such consolidation, merger, sale, conveyance or transfer (but not in the case of a lease),
upon compliance with this Article 11 the Person named as the “Company” in the first paragraph of this Indenture (or any successor that shall thereafter have become such in the manner prescribed in this Article 11) may be dissolved, wound up and
liquidated at any time thereafter and, except in the case of a lease, such Person shall be released from its liabilities as obligor and maker of the Notes and from its obligations under this Indenture and the Notes.
In case of any such consolidation, merger, sale, conveyance, transfer or lease, such changes in phraseology and form (but not in substance) may be made in the Notes thereafter to be issued as may be
appropriate.
Section 11.03. Opinion of Counsel to Be Given to Trustee. No such consolidation, merger, sale, conveyance, transfer or
lease shall be effective unless the Trustee shall receive an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel as conclusive evidence that any such consolidation, merger, sale, conveyance, transfer or lease and any such assumption and, if a
supplemental indenture is required in connection with such transaction, such supplemental indenture, complies with the provisions of this Article 11; provided that no Officers’ Certificate or Opinion of Counsel shall be required to be delivered with
respect to any transaction set forth in Section 11.01 where the resulting, surviving or transferee Person is the Company.
62
Section 12.01. Indenture and Notes Solely Corporate Obligations. No recourse for the payment of the principal of or
any accrued and unpaid Special Interest on or the payment or delivery of consideration due upon conversion of any Note, nor for any claim based thereon or otherwise in respect thereof, and no recourse under or upon any obligation, covenant or
agreement of the Company in this Indenture or in any supplemental indenture or in any Note, nor because of the creation of any indebtedness represented thereby, shall be had against any incorporator, shareholder, employee, agent, Officer or director
or Subsidiary, as such, past, present or future, of the Company or of any successor corporation, either directly or through the Company or any successor corporation, whether by virtue of any constitution, statute or rule of law, or by the enforcement
of any assessment or penalty or otherwise; it being expressly understood that all such liability is hereby expressly waived and released as a condition of, and as a consideration for, the execution of this Indenture and the issue of the Notes.
Section 14.01. Conversion Privilege. Article 17 Subject to and upon compliance with the provisions of this Article 14,
each Holder of a Note shall have the right, at such Holder’s option, to convert all or any portion (if the portion to be converted is $1,000 principal amount or an integral multiple thereof) of such Note (i) subject to satisfaction of the conditions
described in Section 14.01(b), at any time prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding August 1, 2026 under the circumstances and during the periods set forth in Section 14.01(b), and (ii) regardless of the conditions
described in Section 14.01(b), at any time during the period from, and including, August 1, 2026 to the close of business on the second Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding the Maturity Date, in each case, at an initial conversion rate of
17.1092 Ordinary Shares (subject to adjustment as provided in this Article 14, the “Conversion Rate”) per $1,000 principal amount of Notes (subject to, and in accordance with, the settlement provisions of
Section 14.02, the “Conversion Obligation”).
63
(b) Article 18 Prior to the close of business on the Business Day
immediately preceding August 1, 2026, a Holder may surrender all or any portion of its Notes for conversion at any time during the five Business Day period immediately after any ten consecutive Trading Day period (the “Measurement Period”) in which the Trading Price per $1,000 principal amount of Notes, as determined following a request by a Holder of Notes in accordance with this subsection (b)(i), for each Trading Day of the Measurement Period
was less than 98% of the product of the Last Reported Sale Price of the Ordinary Shares on each such Trading Day and the Conversion Rate on each such Trading Day. The Trading Prices shall be determined by the Bid Solicitation Agent pursuant to
this subsection (b)(i) and the definition of Trading Price set forth in this Indenture. The Company shall provide written notice to the Bid Solicitation Agent (if other than the Company) of the three independent nationally recognized securities
dealers selected by the Company pursuant to the definition of Trading Price, along with appropriate contact information for each. The Bid Solicitation Agent (if other than the Company) shall have no obligation to determine the Trading Price per
$1,000 principal amount of Notes unless the Company has requested such determination, and the Company shall have no obligation to make such request (or, if the Company is acting as Bid Solicitation Agent, the Company shall have no obligation to
determine the Trading Price per $1,000 principal amount of Notes) unless a Holder provides the Company with reasonable evidence that the Trading Price per $1,000 principal amount of Notes on any Trading Day would be less than 98% of the product of
the Last Reported Sale Price of the Ordinary Shares on such Trading Day and the Conversion Rate on such Trading Day, at which time the Company shall instruct the Bid Solicitation Agent (if other than the Company) to determine, or if the Company is
acting as Bid Solicitation Agent, the Company shall determine, the Trading Price per $1,000 principal amount of Notes beginning on the next Trading Day and on each successive Trading Day until the Trading Price per $1,000 principal amount of Notes
is greater than or equal to 98% of the product of the Last Reported Sale Price of the Ordinary Shares and the Conversion Rate. If (x) the Company is not acting as Bid Solicitation Agent, and the Company does not instruct the Bid Solicitation Agent
to determine the Trading Price per $1,000 principal amount of Notes when obligated as provided in the preceding sentence, or if the Company instructs the Bid Solicitation Agent to obtain bids and the Bid Solicitation Agent fails to make such
determination, or (y) the Company is acting as Bid Solicitation Agent and the Company fails to make such determination when obligated as provided in the preceding sentence, then, in either case, the Trading Price per $1,000 principal amount of
Notes shall be deemed to be less than 98% of the product of the Last Reported Sale Price of the Ordinary Shares and the Conversion Rate on each Trading Day of such failure. If the Trading Price condition set forth above has been met, the Company
shall so notify the Holders, the Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee) in writing. If, at any time after the Trading Price condition set forth above has been met, the Trading Price per $1,000 principal amount of Notes is
greater than or equal to 98% of the product of the Last Reported Sale Price of the Ordinary Shares and the Conversion Rate for such date, the Company shall so notify the Holders of the Notes, the Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the
Trustee) in writing.
(ii) If, prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding August 1, 2026, the Company elects to:
(A) issue to all or substantially all holders of the Ordinary Shares any rights, options or warrants (other than in connection with a shareholder rights plan, in each
case where such rights have not separated from the Ordinary Shares) entitling them, for a period of not more than 45 calendar days after the announcement date of such issuance, to subscribe for or purchase Ordinary Shares at a price per share that is
less than the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Ordinary Shares for the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of announcement of such issuance; or
64
(B) distribute to all or substantially all holders of the Ordinary Shares the Company’s assets, securities or rights to purchase securities of the Company (other than in
connection with a shareholder rights plan, in each case where such rights have not separated from the Ordinary Shares), which distribution has a per share value, as reasonably determined by the Board of Directors, exceeding 10% of the Last Reported
Sale Price of the Ordinary Shares on the Trading Day preceding the date of announcement for such distribution,
then, in either case, the Company shall notify all Holders of the Notes, the Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee) at least 50 Scheduled Trading Days prior to the Ex-Dividend Date for such issuance
or distribution. Once the Company has given such notice, a Holder may surrender all or any portion of its Notes for conversion at any time until the earlier of (1) the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date
for such issuance or distribution and (2) the Company’s announcement that such issuance or distribution will not take place, in each case, even if the Notes are not otherwise convertible at such time. However, the Company will not be required to
provide such notice, and the Notes will not be convertible pursuant to this Section 14.01(b)(ii) if each Holder of Notes participates, at the same time and upon the same terms as holders of the Ordinary Shares and solely as a result of holding the
Notes, in such issuance or distribution without having to convert its Notes as if such Holder held a number of Ordinary Shares equal to the applicable Conversion Rate multiplied by the principal amount (expressed in thousands) of Notes held by such
Holder.
(iii) If (x) a transaction or event that constitutes a Fundamental Change or a Make-Whole Fundamental Change occurs prior to the close of business on the Business Day
immediately preceding August 1, 2026, regardless of whether a Holder has the right to require the Company to repurchase the Notes pursuant to Section 15.02, or (y) the Company is a party to a consolidation, merger, binding share exchange, statutory
scheme of arrangement (other than a consolidation, merger, binding share exchange or statutory scheme of arrangement effected solely to change the Company’s domicile of incorporation), or a transfer or lease of all or substantially all of the
consolidated assets of the Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, that occurs prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding August 1, 2026, in each case, pursuant to which the Ordinary Shares would be converted
into cash, securities or other assets, then all or any portion of a Holder’s Notes may be surrendered for conversion at any time from or after the effective date of such transaction until the date that is 35 Trading Days after the actual effective
date of such transaction or, if such transaction also constitutes a Fundamental Change (other than an Exempted Fundamental Change), until the close of business on the second Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding the related Fundamental Change
Repurchase Date. The Company shall notify Holders, the Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee) in writing no later than the fifth Business Day following the actual effective date of such transaction.
65
(iv) Prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding August 1, 2026, a Holder may surrender all or any portion of its Notes for conversion at any
time during any calendar quarter commencing after the calendar quarter ending on March 31, 2022 (and only during such calendar quarter), if the Last Reported Sale Price of the Ordinary Shares for at least 20 Trading Days (whether or not consecutive)
during the period of 30 consecutive Trading Days ending on, and including, the last Trading Day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter is greater than or equal to 130% of the Conversion Price on each applicable Trading Day.
(v) If the Company calls any Note for Tax Redemption pursuant to Article 16 or Optional Redemption pursuant to Article 17, then the Holder of a Note called for Redemption
may convert such Note (or a portion thereof) at any time during the Redemption Period, even if such Note is not otherwise convertible at such time. After that time, the right to convert such Note on account of the Company’s delivery of a Redemption
Notice shall expire, unless the Company defaults in the payment of the Redemption Price, in which case a Holder of the Note called for Redemption may convert such Note (or any portion thereof) until the Redemption Price has been paid or duly provided
for. If the Company elects to redeem less than all of the outstanding Notes pursuant to Article 17 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 45th Scheduled Trading Day immediately before the relevant Optional Redemption Date, whether such Note or beneficial interest, as applicable, is to be redeemed pursuant to such Optional 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 immediately prior to such Optional Redemption Date (unless the Company defaults in the payment
of the Redemption Price, in which case a Holder may convert such Note or beneficial interest, as the case may be, 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
Optional Redemption.
(a) Subject to this Section 14.02, Section 14.03(b) and Section
14.07(a), upon conversion of any Note, the Company shall pay or deliver, as the case may be, to the converting Holder, in respect of each $1,000 principal amount of Notes being converted, cash (“Cash Settlement”),
Ordinary Shares, together with cash, if applicable, in lieu of delivering any fractional Ordinary Share in accordance with subsection (j) of this Section 14.02 (“Physical Settlement”) or a combination of cash
and Ordinary Shares, together with cash, if applicable, in lieu of delivering any fractional Ordinary Share in accordance with subsection (j) of this Section 14.02 (“Combination Settlement”), at its
election, as set forth in this Section 14.02.
66
(i) All conversions for which the relevant Conversion Date occurs on or after a Redemption Notice Date and prior to the close of business on the second Scheduled Trading Day
immediately preceding the related Redemption Date, and all conversions for which the relevant Conversion Date occurs on or after August 1, 2026 shall be settled using the same Settlement Method.
(ii) Except for any conversions for which the relevant Conversion Date occurs after a Redemption Notice Date but prior to the close of business on the second Scheduled
Trading Day immediately preceding the related Redemption Date and any conversions for which the relevant Conversion Date occurs on or after August 1, 2026, the Company shall use the same Settlement Method for all conversions with the same Conversion
Date, but the Company shall not have any obligation to use the same Settlement Method with respect to conversions with different Conversion Dates.
(iii) Article 19 If, in respect of any Conversion Date (subject to the below proviso), the Company elects to deliver a notice (the “Settlement
Notice”) of the relevant Settlement Method in respect of such Conversion Date, the Company, through written notice to the Trustee, shall deliver such Settlement Notice to converting Holders no later than the close of business on the Trading
Day immediately following the relevant Conversion Date; provided that in the case of any conversions (x) of Notes called (or deemed called) for Redemption for which the relevant Conversion Date occurs on or
after the relevant Redemption Notice Date and prior to the close of business on the second Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding the related Redemption Date, the Company shall do so in the related Redemption Notice or (y) on or after August 1,
2026, no later than August 1, 2026 (in each case, the “Settlement Method Election Deadline”). If the Company does not elect a Settlement Method prior to the deadline set forth in the immediately preceding
sentence, the Company shall no longer have the right to elect Cash Settlement or Physical Settlement and the Company shall be deemed to have elected Combination Settlement in respect of its Conversion Obligation, and the Specified Dollar Amount per
$1,000 principal amount of Notes shall be equal to $1,000 (such settlement method, the “Default Settlement Method” initially elected by the Company). Such Settlement Notice shall specify the relevant
Settlement Method and in the case of an election of Combination Settlement, the relevant Settlement Notice shall indicate the Specified Dollar Amount per $1,000 principal amount of Notes. If the Company delivers a Settlement Notice electing
Combination Settlement in respect of its Conversion Obligation but does not indicate a Specified Dollar Amount per $1,000 principal amount of Notes in such Settlement Notice, the Specified Dollar Amount per $1,000 principal amount of Notes shall be
deemed to be $1,000. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company’s failure to timely elect a Settlement Method shall not constitute a Default or Event of Default under this Indenture.
(B) The Company may, by written notice to Holders, the Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee), on or before August 1, 2026, change the Default
Settlement Method or elect to irrevocably fix the Settlement Method to any Settlement Method that the Company is then permitted to elect, including Combination Settlement with a Specified Dollar Amount per $1,000 principal amount of Notes of $1,000
or with an ability to continue to set the Specified Dollar Amount per $1,000 principal amount of Notes at or above any specific amount set forth in such election notice, that will apply to all Note conversions with a Conversion Date that is on or
after the date the Company sends such notice. If the Company changes the Default Settlement Method or elects to irrevocably fix the Settlement Method, in either case, to Combination Settlement with an ability to continue to set the Specified Dollar
Amount per $1,000 principal amount of Notes at or above a specified amount, the Company shall, after the date of such change or election, as the case may be, inform Holders converting their Notes, the Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than
the Trustee) in writing of such Specified Dollar Amount in respect of the relevant conversion or conversions no later than the relevant Settlement Method Election Deadline for such conversion or conversions, or, if the Company does not timely inform
the Holders, the Trustee and the Conversion Agent of the Specified Dollar Amount, such Specified Dollar Amount shall be the specific amount set forth in the change or election notice or, if no specific amount was set forth in the change or election
notice, such Specified Dollar Amount shall be deemed to be $1,000 per $1,000 principal amount of Notes. If the Company changes the Default Settlement Method or irrevocably fixes the Settlement Method, then the Company shall concurrently either post
the Default Settlement Method or fixed Settlement Method, as applicable, on the Company’s website or disclose the same in a current report on Form 6-K (or any successor form) that is filed with the Commission. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such
change in the Default Settlement Method or irrevocable election will affect any Settlement Method theretofore elected (or deemed to be elected) with respect to any Conversion Date pursuant to this Section 14.02. For the avoidance of doubt, such
change or election (as the case may be), if made, will be effective without the need to amend this Indenture or the Notes, including pursuant to Section 10.01(i). However, the Company may nonetheless choose to execute such an amendment at the
Company’s option.
67
(iv) The cash, Ordinary Shares or combination of cash and Ordinary Shares in respect of any conversion of Notes (the “Settlement Amount”)
shall be computed as follows:
(A) if the Company elects to satisfy its Conversion Obligation in respect of such conversion by Physical Settlement, the Company shall deliver to the converting Holder
in respect of each $1,000 principal amount of Notes being converted a number of Ordinary Shares equal to the Conversion Rate in effect on the Conversion Date;
(B) if the Company elects to satisfy its Conversion Obligation in respect of such conversion by Cash Settlement, the Company shall pay to the converting Holder in
respect of each $1,000 principal amount of Notes being converted cash in an amount equal to the sum of the Daily Conversion Values for each of the 40 consecutive Trading Days during the related Observation Period; and
68
(C) if the Company elects (or is deemed to have elected) to satisfy its Conversion Obligation in respect of such conversion by Combination Settlement, the Company shall
pay or deliver, as the case may be, in respect of each $1,000 principal amount of Notes being converted, a Settlement Amount equal to the sum of the Daily Settlement Amounts for each of the 40 consecutive Trading Days during the related Observation
Period.
(v) The Daily Settlement Amounts (if applicable) and the Daily Conversion Values (if applicable) shall be determined by the Company promptly following the last day of the
Observation Period. Promptly after such determination of the Daily Settlement Amounts or the Daily Conversion Values, as the case may be, and the amount of cash payable in lieu of delivering any fractional Ordinary Share, the Company shall notify
the Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee) in writing of the Daily Settlement Amounts or the Daily Conversion Values, as the case may be, and the amount of cash payable in lieu of delivering fractional Ordinary Shares. The
Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee) shall have no responsibility for any such determination.
(b) Subject to Section 14.02(e), before any Holder of a Note shall be
entitled to convert a Note as set forth above, such Holder shall Article 20 in the case of a Global Note, comply with the procedures of the Depositary in effect at that time and, if required, pay funds equal to any Special Interest payable on the
next Special Interest Payment Date as set forth in Section 14.02(h) and Article 21 in the case of a Physical Note (1) complete, manually sign and deliver an irrevocable notice to the Conversion Agent as set forth in the Form of Notice of Conversion
(or a facsimile thereof) (a “Notice of Conversion”) at the office of the Conversion Agent and state in writing therein the principal amount of Notes to be converted and the name or names (with addresses) in
which such Holder wishes the certificate or certificates for any Ordinary Shares to be delivered upon settlement of the Conversion Obligation to be registered, (2) surrender such Notes, duly endorsed to the Company or in blank (and accompanied by
appropriate endorsement and transfer documents), at the office of the Conversion Agent, (3) if required, furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and (4) if required, pay funds equal to Special Interest payable on the next Special
Interest Payment Date as set forth in Section 14.02(h). The Trustee (and if different, the Conversion Agent) shall notify the Company of any conversion pursuant to this Article 14 on the Conversion Date for such conversion. No Notice of
Conversion with respect to any Notes may be surrendered by a Holder thereof if such Holder has also delivered a Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice to the Company in respect of such Notes and has not validly withdrawn such Fundamental Change
Repurchase Notice in accordance with Section 15.03.
If more than one Note shall be surrendered for conversion at one time by the same Holder, the Conversion Obligation with respect to such Notes shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate principal
amount of the Notes (or specified portions thereof to the extent permitted thereby) so surrendered.
69
(c) A Note shall be deemed to have been converted immediately prior
to the close of business on the date (the “Conversion Date”) that the Holder has complied with the requirements set forth in subsection (b) above. Except as set forth in Section 14.03(b) and Section
14.07(a), the Company shall pay or deliver, as the case may be, the consideration due in respect of the Conversion Obligation (i) on the second Business Day immediately following the relevant Conversion Date, if the Company elects Physical
Settlement (unless such Conversion Date occurs following November 15, 2026, in which case the Company will deliver the relevant consideration on the Maturity Date), or (ii) on the second Business Day immediately following the last Trading Day of
the Observation Period, in the case of any other Settlement Method. If any Ordinary Shares are due to a converting Holder, the Company shall issue or cause to be issued, and deliver (if applicable) to the Conversion Agent or to such Holder, or
such Holder’s nominee or nominees, the full number of Ordinary Shares to which such Holder shall be entitled, in book-entry format through the Depositary, in satisfaction of the Company’s Conversion Obligation.
(d) In case any Note shall be surrendered for partial conversion, the
Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to or upon the written order of the Holder of the Note so surrendered a new Note or Notes in authorized denominations in an aggregate principal amount equal to the unconverted
portion of the surrendered Note, without payment of any service charge by the converting Holder but, if required by the Company or Trustee, with payment of a sum sufficient to cover any documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer tax or similar
governmental charge required by law or that may be imposed in connection therewith as a result of the name of the Holder of the new Notes issued upon such conversion being different from the name of the Holder of the old Notes surrendered for such
conversion.
(e) If a Holder submits a Note for conversion, the Company shall pay
any documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer tax due on the issue of any Ordinary Shares upon conversion, unless the tax is due because the Holder requests such shares to be issued in a name other than the Holder’s name, in which case the
Holder shall pay that tax. The Conversion Agent may refuse to deliver the certificates representing the Ordinary Shares being issued in a name other than the Holder’s name until the Trustee receives a sum sufficient to pay any tax that is due by
such Holder in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence.
(f) Except as provided in Section 14.04, no adjustment shall be made
for dividends on any Ordinary Shares issued upon the conversion of any Note as provided in this Article 14.
(g) Upon the conversion of an interest in a Global Note, the Trustee,
or the Custodian at the direction of the Trustee, shall make a notation on such Global Note as to the reduction in the principal amount represented thereby. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of any conversion of Notes effected
through any Conversion Agent other than the Trustee.
70
(h) Upon conversion, a Holder shall not receive any separate cash
payment for accrued and unpaid Special Interest, if any, except as set forth below, and the Company will not adjust the Conversion Rate for any accrued and unpaid Special Interest on any converted Notes. The Company’s settlement of the full
Conversion Obligation shall be deemed to satisfy in full its obligation to pay the principal amount of the Note and accrued and unpaid Special Interest, if any, to, but not including, the relevant Conversion Date. As a result, accrued and unpaid
Special Interest, if any, to, but not including, the relevant Conversion Date shall be deemed to be paid in full rather than cancelled, extinguished or forfeited. Upon a conversion of Notes into a combination of cash and Ordinary Shares, accrued
and unpaid Special Interest will be deemed to be paid first out of the cash paid upon such conversion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Notes are converted after the close of business on a Special Interest Record Date and prior to the open of
business on the corresponding Special Interest Payment Date, Holders of such Notes as of the close of business on such Special Interest Record Date will receive the full amount of Special Interest payable on such Notes on the corresponding Special
Interest Payment Date notwithstanding the conversion. Notes surrendered for conversion during the period from the close of business on any Special Interest Record Date to the open of business on the immediately following Special Interest Payment
Date must be accompanied by funds equal to the amount of Special Interest payable on the Notes so converted; provided that no such payment shall be required (1) for conversions following November 15, 2026;
(2) if the Company has specified a Redemption Date that is after a Special Interest Record Date and on or prior to the second Scheduled Trading Day immediately following the corresponding Special Interest Payment Date; (3) if the Company has
specified a Fundamental Change Repurchase Date that is after a Special Interest Record Date and on or prior to the second Scheduled Trading Day immediately following the corresponding Special Interest Payment Date; or (4) to the extent of any
Defaulted Amounts, if any Defaulted Amounts exists at the time of conversion with respect to such Note. Therefore, for the avoidance of doubt, all Holders of record as of the close of business on November 15, 2026, or as of the Special Interest
Record Date immediately preceding a Fundamental Change Repurchase Date or a Redemption Date shall receive the full Special Interest payment due on the corresponding Special Interest Payment Date in cash regardless of whether their Notes have been
converted following November 15, 2026 or such Special Interest Record Date, as the case may be.
(i) The Person in whose name the Ordinary Shares, if any, shall be
issuable upon conversion shall be treated as a shareholder of record as of the close of business on the relevant Conversion Date (if the Company elects to satisfy the related Conversion Obligation by Physical Settlement) or the last Trading Day of
the relevant Observation Period (if the Company elects to satisfy the related Conversion Obligation by Combination Settlement), as the case may be. Upon a conversion of Notes, such Person shall no longer be a Holder of such Notes surrendered for
conversion.
(j) The Company shall not issue any fractional Ordinary Share upon
conversion of the Notes and shall instead pay cash in lieu of delivering any fractional Ordinary Share otherwise issuable upon conversion based on the Daily VWAP for the relevant Conversion Date (or, if such Conversion Date is not a Trading Day,
the immediately preceding Trading Day), in the case of Physical Settlement, or based on the Daily VWAP for the last Trading Day of the relevant Observation Period, in the case of Combination Settlement. For each Note surrendered for conversion, if
the Company has elected (or is deemed to have elected) Combination Settlement, the full number of shares that shall be issued upon conversion thereof shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate Daily Settlement Amounts for the relevant
Observation Period and any fractional shares remaining after such computation shall be paid in cash.
71
Section 14.03. Increased Conversion Rate Applicable to Certain Notes Surrendered in Connection with a Make-Whole Fundamental
Change or Redemption Notice. Article 22 If (i) (X) the Effective Date of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change occurs prior to the Maturity Date or (Y) the Company delivers a Redemption Notice, and (ii) a Holder elects to convert its Notes in
connection with such Make-Whole Fundamental Change or Redemption Notice, the Company shall, under the circumstances described below, increase the Conversion Rate for the Notes so surrendered for conversion by a number of additional Ordinary Shares
(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 Conversion Date occurs
during the period from, and including, the Effective Date of the Make-Whole Fundamental Change up to, and including, the second Scheduled Trading Day immediately prior to the related Fundamental Change Repurchase Date (or, in the case of an Exempted
Fundamental Change or 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”). A conversion of Notes shall be deemed for these purposes to be “in connection with” such
Redemption Notice if the relevant Conversion Date with respect to the Notes called (or deemed called) for Redemption occurs during the related Redemption Period. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company shall increase the Conversion Rate hereunder in
connection with a Redemption Notice only in respect of conversions of the Notes called (or deemed called) for Redemption, and not of the Notes not called (or not deemed called) for Redemption. Accordingly, if the Company elects to redeem fewer than
all of the outstanding Notes pursuant to Section 17.01, Holders of the Notes not called for Optional Redemption will not be entitled to convert such Notes (at an increased Conversion Rate for such Notes or otherwise) on account of such Optional
Redemption, except in the limited circumstances set forth under Section 14.01(b)(v).
(b) Upon surrender of Notes for conversion in connection with a
Make-Whole Fundamental Change or a Redemption Notice, the Company shall, at its option, satisfy the related Conversion Obligation by Physical Settlement, Cash Settlement or Combination Settlement in accordance with Section 14.02; provided, however, that if, at the effective time of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change described in clause (b) of the definition of Fundamental Change, the Reference
Property following such Make-Whole Fundamental Change is composed entirely of cash, then, for any conversion of Notes with a Conversion Date occurring on or after the Effective Date of such Make-Whole Fundamental Change, the Conversion Obligation
shall be calculated based solely on the Share Price for the transaction and shall be deemed to be an amount of cash per $1,000 principal amount of converted Notes equal to the Conversion Rate on such Conversion Date (including any adjustment for
Additional Shares), multiplied by the Share Price. In such event, the Conversion Obligation shall be paid to Holders in cash on the second Business Day following the Conversion Date. The Company shall
provide notice of each Make-Whole Fundamental Change in the manner described under Section 14.01(b)(iii).
72
(c) The number of Additional Shares, if any, by which the Conversion
Rate shall be increased shall be determined by reference to the table below, based on (i)(x) in the case of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change, the date on which the Make-Whole Fundamental Change occurs or becomes effective or, (y) in the case of a
Redemption Notice, the relevant Redemption Notice Date (in each case, the “Effective Date”) and (ii)(x) in the case of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change, the price paid (or deemed to be paid) per Ordinary Share
in the Make-Whole Fundamental Change or (y) in the case of a Redemption Notice, the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Ordinary Shares over the five consecutive Trading Days ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately day
immediately preceding the relevant Redemption Notice Date (in each case, the “Share Price”). If the holders of the Ordinary Shares receive in exchange for their Ordinary Shares only cash in a Make-Whole
Fundamental Change described in clause (b) of the definition of Fundamental Change, the Share Price shall be the cash amount paid per share. In the case of any other Make-Whole Fundamental Change, the Share Price shall be the average of the Last
Reported Sale Prices of the Ordinary Shares over the five consecutive Trading Days ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the Effective Date of the Make-Whole Fundamental Change. In the event that a conversion during a
Redemption Period would also be deemed to be in connection with a Make-Whole Fundamental Change or in connection with another Redemption Period, a Holder of Notes to be converted will be entitled to a single increase to the Conversion Rate with
respect to the first to occur of the earliest applicable Redemption Notice Date and the Effective Date of any applicable Make-Whole Fundamental Change, and the later event(s) will be deemed not to have occurred for purposes of this Section with
respect to such conversion. The Company shall make appropriate adjustments to the Share Price, in its good faith determination, to account for any adjustment to the Conversion Rate that becomes effective, or any event requiring an adjustment to the
Conversion Rate where the Ex-Dividend Date, Effective Date (as such term is used in Section 14.04) or expiration date of the event occurs during such any five consecutive Trading Day period during which the Share Price is to be calculated.
(d) The Share Prices set forth in the column headings of the table
below shall be adjusted as of any date on which the Conversion Rate of the Notes is otherwise adjusted. The adjusted Share Prices shall equal the Share Prices applicable immediately prior to such adjustment, multiplied
by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Conversion Rate immediately prior to such adjustment giving rise to the Share Price adjustment and the denominator of which is the Conversion Rate as so adjusted. The number of Additional
Shares set forth in the table below shall be adjusted in the same manner and at the same time as the Conversion Rate as set forth in Section 14.04.
73
(e) The following table sets forth the number of Additional Ordinary
Shares by which the Conversion Rate shall be increased per $1,000 principal amount of Notes pursuant to this Section 14.03 for each Share Price and Effective Date set forth below:

The exact Share Price and Effective Date may not be set forth in the table above, in which case:
(i) if the Share Price is between two Share Prices in the table above or the Effective Date is between two Effective Dates in the table, the number of Additional Shares
shall be determined by a straight-line interpolation between the number of Additional Shares set forth for the higher and lower Share Prices and the earlier and later Effective Dates, as applicable, based on a 365 or 366-day year, as applicable;
(ii) if the Share Price is greater than $200.00 per ordinary share (subject to adjustment in the same manner as the Share Prices set forth in the column headings of the
table above pursuant to subsection (d) above), no Additional Shares shall be added to the Conversion Rate; and
(iii) if the Share Price is less than $44.96 per ordinary share (subject to adjustment in the same manner as the Share Prices set forth in the column headings of the table
above pursuant to subsection (d) above), no Additional Shares shall be added to the Conversion Rate.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Conversion Rate per $1,000 principal amount of Notes exceed 22.2419 Ordinary Shares, subject to adjustment in the same manner as the Conversion Rate pursuant to
Section 14.04.
(f) Nothing in this Section 14.03 shall prevent an adjustment to the
Conversion Rate pursuant to Section 14.04 in respect of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change.
Section 14.04. Adjustment of Conversion Rate. The Conversion Rate shall be adjusted from time to time by the Company if
any of the following events occurs, except that the Company shall not make any adjustments to the Conversion Rate if Holders of the Notes participate (other than in the case of (x) a share split or share combination or (y) a tender or exchange
offer), at the same time and upon the same terms as holders of the Ordinary Shares and solely as a result of holding the Notes, in any of the transactions described in this Section 14.04, without having to convert their Notes, as if they held a
number of Ordinary Shares equal to the Conversion Rate, multiplied by the principal amount (expressed in thousands) of Notes held by such Holder.
74
(a) If the Company exclusively issues Ordinary Shares as a dividend
or distribution on Ordinary Shares, or if the Company effects a share split or share combination, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted based on the following formula:
where,
CR0 | = | the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date of such dividend or distribution, or immediately prior to the open of business on the Effective Date of such share split or share combination, as applicable; |
CR' | = | the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the open of business on such Ex-Dividend Date or Effective Date; |
OS0 | = | the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately prior to the open of business on such Ex-Dividend Date or Effective Date (before giving effect to any such dividend, distribution, share split or share combination); and |
OS' | = | the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to such dividend, distribution, share split or share combination. |
Any adjustment made under this Section 14.04(a) shall become effective immediately after the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution, or immediately after the open of business on the
Effective Date for such share split or share combination, as applicable. If any dividend or distribution of the type described in this Section 14.04(a) is declared but not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall be immediately readjusted,
effective as of the date the Board of Directors determines not to pay such dividend or distribution, to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared.
(b) If the Company issues to all or substantially all holders of the
Ordinary Shares any rights, options or warrants (other than pursuant to a shareholders rights plan) entitling them, for a period of not more than 45 calendar days after the announcement date of such issuance, to subscribe for or purchase Ordinary
Shares at a price per share that is less than the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Ordinary Shares for the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of announcement of
such issuance, the Conversion Rate shall be increased based on the following formula:
75
where,
CR0 | = | the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such issuance; |
CR' | = | the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the open of business on such Ex-Dividend Date; |
OS0 | = | the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately prior to the open of business on such Ex-Dividend Date; |
X | = | the total number of Ordinary Shares issuable pursuant to such rights, options or warrants; and |
Y | = | the number of Ordinary Shares equal to the aggregate price payable to exercise such rights, options or warrants, divided by the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Ordinary Shares over the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of announcement of the issuance of such rights, options or warrants. |
Any increase made under this Section 14.04(b) shall be made successively whenever any such rights, options or warrants are issued and shall become effective immediately after the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date
for such issuance. To the extent that Ordinary Shares are not delivered after the expiration of such rights, options or warrants, the Conversion Rate shall be decreased to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect had the increase with
respect to the issuance of such rights, options or warrants been made on the basis of delivery of only the number of Ordinary Shares actually delivered. If such rights, options or warrants are not so issued, or if no such rights, options or warrants
are exercised prior to their expiration, the Conversion Rate shall be decreased to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such Ex-Dividend Date for such issuance had not occurred.
For purposes of this Section 14.04(b) and for the purpose of Section 14.01(b)(ii)(A), in determining whether any rights, options or warrants entitle the holders of the Ordinary Shares to subscribe for
or purchase Ordinary Shares at less than such average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Ordinary Shares for the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of announcement for such
issuance, and in determining the aggregate offering price of such Ordinary Shares, there shall be taken into account any consideration received by the Company for such rights, options or warrants and any amount payable on exercise or conversion
thereof, the value of such consideration, if other than cash, to be determined by the Board of Directors.
76
(c) If the Company distributes shares of its Capital Stock, evidences
of its indebtedness, other assets or property of the Company or rights, options or warrants to acquire its Capital Stock or other securities, to all or substantially all holders of the Ordinary Shares, excluding Article 23 dividends, distributions
or issuances as to which an adjustment is effective (or would be effected) pursuant to Section 14.04(a) or Section 14.04(b), Article 24 rights issued under a shareholder rights plan (except as described in Section 14.11), Article 25 dividends or
distributions paid exclusively in cash as to which the provisions set forth in Section 14.04(d) shall apply, Article 26 distributions of Reference Property in exchange for or upon conversion of the Ordinary Shares in a transaction described in
Section 14.07, and Article 27 Spin-Offs as to which the provisions set forth below in this Section 14.04(c) shall apply (any of such shares of Capital Stock, evidences of indebtedness, other assets or property or rights, options or warrants to
acquire Capital Stock or other securities, the “Distributed Property”), then the Conversion Rate shall be increased based on the following formula:
where,
CR0 | = | the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution; |
CR' | = | the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the open of business on such Ex-Dividend Date; |
SP0 | = | the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Ordinary Shares over the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution; and |
FMV | = | the fair market value (as determined by the Board of Directors) of the Distributed Property with respect to each outstanding Ordinary Share on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution. |
Any increase made under the portion of this Section 14.04(c) above shall become effective immediately after the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution. If such distribution is not so paid or
made, the Conversion Rate shall be decreased to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such distribution had not been declared. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if “FMV” (as defined above) is equal to or greater than “SP0” (as
defined above), in lieu of the foregoing increase, each Holder of a Note shall receive, in respect of each $1,000 principal amount thereof, at the same time and upon the same terms as holders of the Ordinary Shares receive the Distributed Property,
the amount and kind of Distributed Property such Holder would have received if such Holder owned a number of Ordinary Shares equal to the Conversion Rate in effect on the Ex-Dividend Date for the distribution. If the Board of Directors determines
the “FMV” (as defined above) of any distribution for purposes of this Section 14.04(c) by reference to the actual or when-issued trading market for any securities, it shall in doing so consider the prices in such market over the same period used in
computing the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Ordinary Shares over the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution.
77
With respect to an adjustment pursuant to this Section 14.04(c) where there has been a payment of a dividend or other distribution on the Ordinary Shares of shares of Capital Stock of any class or
series, or similar equity interest, of or relating to a Subsidiary or other business unit of the Company, that are, or, when issued, will be, listed or admitted for trading on a U.S. national securities exchange (a “Spin-Off”),
the Conversion Rate shall be increased based on the following formula:
where,
CR0 | = | the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the end of the Valuation Period; |
CR' | = | the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the end of the Valuation Period; |
FMV0 | = | the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Capital Stock or similar equity interest distributed to holders of the Ordinary Shares applicable to one Ordinary Share (determined by reference to the definition of Last Reported Sale Price as set forth in Section 1.01 as if references therein to Ordinary Shares were to such Capital Stock or similar equity interest) over the first 10 consecutive Trading Day period after, and including, the Ex-Dividend Date of the Spin-Off (the “Valuation Period”); and |
MP0 | = | the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Ordinary Shares over the Valuation Period. |
The increase to the Conversion Rate under the preceding paragraph shall occur immediately after the end of the Valuation Period; provided that (x) in respect
of any conversion of Notes for which Physical Settlement is applicable, if the relevant Conversion Date occurs during the Valuation Period, references to “10” in the preceding paragraph shall be deemed to be replaced with such lesser number of
Trading Days as have elapsed from, and including, the Ex-Dividend Date of such Spin-Off to, and including, such Conversion Date in determining the Conversion Rate and (y) in respect of any conversion of Notes for which Cash Settlement or Combination
Settlement is applicable, for any Trading Day that falls within the relevant Observation Period for such conversion and within the Valuation Period, references to “10” in the preceding paragraph shall be deemed to be replaced with such lesser number
of Trading Days as have elapsed from, and including, the Ex-Dividend Date of such Spin-Off to, and including, such Trading Day in determining the Conversion Rate as of such Trading Day.
For purposes of this Section 14.04(c) (and subject in all respect to Section 14.11), rights, options or warrants distributed by the Company to all holders of the Ordinary Shares entitling them to
subscribe for or purchase shares of the Company’s Capital Stock, including Ordinary Shares (either initially or under certain circumstances), which rights, options or warrants, until the occurrence of a specified event or events (“Trigger Event”): (i) are deemed to be transferred with such Ordinary Shares; (ii) are not exercisable; and (iii) are also issued in respect of future issuances of Ordinary Shares, shall be deemed not to have been
distributed for purposes of this Section 14.04(c) (and no adjustment to the Conversion Rate under this Section 14.04(c) will be required) until the occurrence of the earliest Trigger Event, whereupon such rights, options or warrants shall be deemed
to have been distributed and an appropriate adjustment (if any is required) to the Conversion Rate shall be made under this Section 14.04(c). If any such right, option or warrant, including any such existing rights, options or warrants distributed
prior to the date of this Indenture, are subject to events, upon the occurrence of which such rights, options or warrants become exercisable to purchase different securities, evidences of indebtedness or other assets, then the date of the occurrence
of any and each such event shall be deemed to be the date of distribution and Ex-Dividend Date with respect to new rights, options or warrants with such rights (in which case the existing rights, options or warrants shall be deemed to terminate and
expire on such date without exercise by any of the holders thereof). In addition, in the event of any distribution (or deemed distribution) of rights, options or warrants, or any Trigger Event or other event (of the type described in the immediately
preceding sentence) with respect thereto that was counted for purposes of calculating a distribution amount for which an adjustment to the Conversion Rate under this Section 14.04(c) was made, (1) in the case of any such rights, options or warrants
that shall all have been redeemed or purchased without exercise by any holders thereof, upon such final redemption or purchase (x) the Conversion Rate shall be readjusted as if such rights, options or warrants had not been issued and (y) the
Conversion Rate shall then again be readjusted to give effect to such distribution, deemed distribution or Trigger Event, as the case may be, as though it were a cash distribution, equal to the per share redemption or purchase price received by a
holder or holders of Ordinary Shares with respect to such rights, options or warrants (assuming such holder had retained such rights, options or warrants), made to all holders of Ordinary Shares as of the date of such redemption or purchase, and (2)
in the case of such rights, options or warrants that shall have expired or been terminated without exercise by any holders thereof, the Conversion Rate shall be readjusted as if such rights, options and warrants had not been issued.
78
For purposes of Section 14.04(a), Section 14.04(b) and this Section 14.04(c), if any dividend or distribution to which this Section 14.04(c) is applicable also includes one or both of:
(A) a dividend or distribution of Ordinary Shares to which Section 14.04(a) is applicable (the “Clause A Distribution”); or
(B) a dividend or distribution of rights, options or warrants to which Section 14.04(b) is applicable (the “Clause B Distribution”),
then, in either case, (1) such dividend or distribution, other than the Clause A Distribution and the Clause B Distribution, shall be deemed to be a dividend or distribution to which this Section 14.04(c) is applicable
(the “Clause C Distribution”) and any Conversion Rate adjustment required by this Section 14.04(c) with respect to such Clause C Distribution shall then be made, and (2) the Clause A Distribution and Clause B
Distribution shall be deemed to immediately follow the Clause C Distribution and any Conversion Rate adjustment required by Section 14.04(a) and Section 14.04(b) with respect thereto shall then be made, except that, if determined by the Company (I)
the “Ex-Dividend Date” of the Clause A Distribution and the Clause B Distribution shall be deemed to be the Ex-Dividend Date of the Clause C Distribution and (II) any Ordinary Shares included in the Clause A Distribution or Clause B Distribution
shall be deemed not to be “outstanding immediately prior to the open of business on such Ex-Dividend Date or Effective Date” within the meaning of Section 14.04(a) or “outstanding immediately prior to the open of business on such Ex-Dividend Date”
within the meaning of Section 14.04(b).
79
(d) If any cash dividend or distribution is made to all or
substantially all holders of the Ordinary Shares, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted based on the following formula:
where,
CR0 | = | the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution; |
CR' | = | the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution; |
SP0 | = | the Last Reported Sale Price of the Ordinary Shares on the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution; and |
C | = | the amount in cash per share the Company distributes to all or substantially all holders of Ordinary Shares. |
Any increase pursuant to this Section 14.04(d) shall become effective immediately after the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution. If such dividend or distribution is not so paid,
the Conversion Rate shall be decreased, effective as of the date the Board of Directors determines not to make or pay such dividend or distribution, to be the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been
declared. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if “C” (as defined above) is equal to or greater than “SP0” (as defined above), in lieu of the foregoing increase, each Holder of a Note shall receive, for each $1,000 principal amount of its
Notes, at the same time and upon the same terms as holders of Ordinary Shares, the amount of cash that such Holder would have received if such Holder owned a number of Ordinary Shares equal to the Conversion Rate on the Ex-Dividend Date for such cash
dividend or distribution.
80
(e) If the Company or any of its Subsidiaries make a payment in
respect of a tender or exchange offer for Ordinary Shares, to the extent that the cash and value of any other consideration included in the payment per Ordinary Share exceeds the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Ordinary Shares over
the 10 consecutive Trading Day period commencing on, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the last date on which tenders or exchanges may be made pursuant to such tender or exchange offer, the Conversion Rate shall be increased based on
the following formula:
where,
CR0 | = | the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the 10th Trading Day immediately following, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the date such tender or exchange offer expires; |
CR' | = | the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the close of business on the 10th Trading Day immediately following, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the date such tender or exchange offer expires; |
AC | = | the aggregate value of all cash and any other consideration (as determined by the Board of Directors) paid or payable for Ordinary Shares purchased in such tender or exchange offer; |
OS0 | = | the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately prior to the date such tender or exchange offer expires (prior to giving effect to the purchase of all Ordinary Shares accepted for purchase or exchange in such tender or exchange offer); |
OS' | = | the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately after the date such tender or exchange offer expires (after giving effect to the purchase of all Ordinary Shares accepted for purchase or exchange in such tender or exchange offer); and |
SP' | = | the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Ordinary Shares over the 10 consecutive Trading Day period commencing on, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the date such tender or exchange offer expires. |
The increase to the Conversion Rate under this Section 14.04(e) shall occur at the close of business on the 10th Trading Day immediately following, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the
date such tender or exchange offer expires; provided that (x) in respect of any conversion of Notes for which Physical Settlement is applicable, if the relevant Conversion Date occurs during the 10 Trading
Days immediately following, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the expiration date of any tender or exchange offer, references to “10” or “10th” in the preceding paragraph shall be deemed replaced with such lesser number of Trading Days
as have elapsed from, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the date that such tender or exchange offer expires and such Conversion Date in determining the Conversion Rate and (y) in respect of any conversion of Notes for which Cash
Settlement or Combination Settlement is applicable, for any Trading Day that falls within the relevant Observation Period for such conversion and within the 10 Trading Days immediately following, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the
expiration date of any tender or exchange offer, references to “10” or “10th” in the preceding paragraph shall be deemed replaced with such lesser number of Trading Days as have elapsed from, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the
expiration date of such tender or exchange offer to, and including, such Trading Day in determining the Conversion Rate as of such Trading Day.
81
(f) Notwithstanding this Section 14.04 or any other provision of
this Indenture or the Notes, if: (1) a Conversion Rate adjustment for any dividend or distribution becomes effective on any Ex-Dividend Date as described in this Section 14.04; (2) a Note is to be converted for which Physical Settlement or
Combination Settlement applies; (3) the Conversion Date for such conversion (in the case of Physical Settlement) or any VWAP Trading Day in the Observation Period for such conversion (in the case of Combination Settlement) occurs on or after such
Ex-Dividend Date and on or before the related Record Date; (4) the consideration due upon such conversion (in the case of Physical Settlement) or due with respect to such VWAP Trading Day (in the case of Combination Settlement) includes any whole
Ordinary Shares based on a Conversion Rate that is (or, in the case of Physical Settlement, if not for this paragraph, would have been) adjusted for such dividend or distribution; and (5) such Ordinary Shares would be entitled to participate in
such dividend or distribution, then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary, (x) in the case of Physical Settlement, the Conversion Rate adjustment relating to such Ex-Dividend Date shall not be made for such conversion, and, instead, the
Ordinary Shares issuable upon such conversion based on such unadjusted Conversion Rate shall be entitled to participate in such dividend or distribution; and (y) in the case of Combination Settlement, the Conversion Rate adjustment relating to such
Ex-Dividend Date shall be made for such conversion in respect of such VWAP Trading Day, but the Ordinary Shares issuable with respect to such VWAP Trading Day based on such adjusted Conversion Rate shall not be entitled to participate in such
dividend or distribution.
(g) In addition to those adjustments required by clauses (a), (b),
(c), (d) and (e) of this Section 14.04, and to the extent permitted by applicable law and subject to the applicable listing standards of the Nasdaq Global Market, or, if the Ordinary Shares are not listed on The Nasdaq Global Market, the principal
other U.S. national or regional securities exchange on which the Ordinary Shares are then listed, the Company from time to time may increase the Conversion Rate by any amount for a period of at least 20 Business Days if the Board of Directors
determines that such increase would be in the Company’s best interest. In addition, to the extent permitted by applicable law and subject to the applicable listing standards of the Nasdaq Global Market (or such other market described above, as
applicable), the Company may (but is not required to) increase the Conversion Rate to avoid or diminish any income tax to holders of Ordinary Shares or rights to purchase Ordinary Shares in connection with a dividend or distribution of Ordinary
Shares (or rights to acquire Ordinary Shares) or similar event. Whenever the Conversion Rate is increased pursuant to either of the preceding two sentences, the Company shall deliver to the Holder of each Note a notice of the increase at least 15
days prior to the date the increased Conversion Rate takes effect, and such notice shall state the increased Conversion Rate and the period during which it will be in effect.
82
(h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article 14, the
Conversion Rate shall not be adjusted:
(i) Upon the issuance of Ordinary Shares at a price below the Conversion Price or otherwise, or upon issuance of any securities convertible or exchangeable for Ordinary
Shares, or upon issuance of any right to purchase Ordinary Shares or such convertible or exchangeable securities (other than in connection with a transaction described in clauses (a) through (c) of this Section 14.04);
(ii) upon the issuance of any Ordinary Shares pursuant to any present or future plan providing for the reinvestment of dividends or interest payable on the Company’s
securities and the investment of additional optional amounts in Ordinary Shares under any plan;
(iii) upon the issuance of any Ordinary Shares or options or rights to purchase those Ordinary Shares pursuant to any present or future employee, director or consultant
benefit plan or program of or assumed by the Company or any of the Company’s Subsidiaries;
(iv) upon the issuance of any Ordinary Shares pursuant to any option, warrant, right or exercisable, exchangeable or convertible security not described in clause (iii) of
this subsection and outstanding as of the date the Notes were first issued;
(v) upon the repurchase of any Ordinary Shares pursuant to the repurchase program approved by the Board of Directors prior to November 17, 2021, and any other open-market
share repurchase program or other buy-back transaction that is not a tender offer or exchange offer of the nature described under Section 14.04(e).
(vi) solely for a change in the nominal (par) value of the Ordinary Shares; or
(vii) for accrued and unpaid Special Interest, if any.
(i) All calculations and other determinations under this Article 14
shall be made by the Company and shall be made to the nearest one-ten thousandth (1/10,000th) of an Ordinary Share.
(j) Whenever the Conversion Rate is adjusted as herein provided, the
Company shall promptly file with the Trustee (and the Conversion Agent if not the Trustee) an Officers’ Certificate setting forth the Conversion Rate after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment.
Unless and until a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have received such Officers’ Certificate, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any adjustment of the Conversion Rate and may assume without inquiry that the last Conversion
Rate of which it has knowledge is still in effect. Promptly after delivery of such certificate, the Company shall prepare a notice of such adjustment of the Conversion Rate setting forth the adjusted Conversion Rate and the date on which each
adjustment becomes effective and shall deliver such notice of such adjustment of the Conversion Rate to each Holder. Failure to deliver such notice shall not affect the legality or validity of any such adjustment.
83
(k) For purposes of this Section 14.04, the number of Ordinary Shares
at any time outstanding shall not include Ordinary Shares held in the treasury of the Company so long as the Company does not pay any dividend or make any distribution on Ordinary Shares held in the treasury of the Company, but shall include
Ordinary Shares issuable in respect of scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of Ordinary Shares.
Section 14.05. Adjustments of Prices. Whenever any provision of this Indenture requires the Company to calculate the
Last Reported Sale Prices, the Daily VWAPs, the Daily Conversion Values or the Daily Settlement Amounts over a span of multiple days (including, without limitation, an Observation Period and the period, if any, for determining the Share Price for
purposes of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change or a Redemption Notice), the Company shall make appropriate adjustments to each to account for any adjustment to the Conversion Rate that becomes effective, or any event requiring an adjustment to the
Conversion Rate where the Ex-Dividend Date, Effective Date or expiration date, as the case may be, of the event occurs, at any time during the period when the Last Reported Sale Prices, the Daily VWAPs, the Daily Conversion Values or the Daily
Settlement Amounts are to be calculated.
Section 14.06. Shares to Be Fully Paid. The Company shall provide, free from preemptive rights, out of its authorized
but unissued shares or shares held in treasury, sufficient Ordinary Shares to provide for conversion of the Notes from time to time as such Notes are presented for conversion (assuming delivery of the maximum number of Additional Shares pursuant to
Section 14.03 and that at the time of computation of such number of shares, all such Notes would be converted by a single Holder and that Physical Settlement were applicable).
(a) In the case of:
(i) any recapitalization, reclassification or change of the Ordinary Shares (other than changes only in nominal (par) value or from nominal (par) value to no nominal (par)
value and vice versa, or changes resulting from a subdivision or combination),
(ii) any consolidation, merger or combination involving the Company,
(iii) any sale, lease or other transfer to a third party of the consolidated assets of the Company and the Company’s Subsidiaries substantially as an entirety;
(iv) any statutory scheme of arrangement; or
(v) any statutory share exchange,
84
(b) in each case, as a result of which the Ordinary Shares would be
converted into, or exchanged for, stock, other securities, other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) (any such event, a “Merger Event”), then, at and after the effective time of
such Merger Event, the right to convert each $1,000 principal amount of Notes shall be changed into a right to convert such principal amount of Notes into the kind and amount of shares of stock, other securities or other property or assets
(including cash or any combination thereof) that a holder of a number of Ordinary Shares equal to the Conversion Rate immediately prior to such Merger Event would have owned or been entitled to receive (the “Reference
Property,” with each “unit of Reference Property” meaning the kind and amount of Reference Property that a holder of one Ordinary Share is entitled to receive) upon such Merger Event and, prior to or
at the effective time of such Merger Event, the Company or the successor or purchasing Person, as the case may be, shall execute with the Trustee a supplemental indenture permitted under Section 10.01(j) providing for such change in the right to
convert each $1,000 principal amount of Notes; provided, however, that at and after the effective time of the Merger Event (A) the Company shall continue to have
the right to determine the form of consideration to be paid or delivered, as the case may be, upon conversion of Notes in accordance with Section 14.02 and (B) (I) any amount payable in cash upon conversion of the Notes in accordance with Section
14.02 shall continue to be payable in cash, (II) any Ordinary Shares that the Company would have been required to deliver upon conversion of the Notes in accordance with Section 14.02 shall instead be deliverable in the amount and type of Reference
Property that a holder of that number of Ordinary Shares would have been entitled to receive in such Merger Event and (III) the Daily VWAP shall be calculated based on the value of a unit of Reference Property (or portion thereof) that consists of
a class of Common Equity will be determined by reference to the definition of “Daily VWAP” (substituting, if applicable, the Bloomberg page for such Common Equity in such definition) and the Daily VWAP of a unit of Reference Property (or a portion
thereof) that does not consist of a class of Common Equity will be the fair value of such unit of Reference Property (or the applicable portion thereof) determined in good faith by the Company (or, in the case of cash denominated in U.S. dollars,
the face amount thereof).
If the Merger Event causes the Ordinary Shares to be converted into, or exchanged for, the right to receive more than a single type of consideration (determined based in part upon any form of
shareholder election), then (i) the Reference Property into which the Notes will be convertible shall be deemed to be the weighted average of the types and amounts of consideration actually received, per one Ordinary Share, by the holders of Ordinary
Shares, and (ii) the unit of Reference Property for purposes of the immediately preceding paragraph shall refer to the consideration referred to in clause (i) attributable to one Ordinary Share. The Company shall notify Holders, the Trustee and the
Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee) in writing of such weighted average as soon as practicable after such determination is made. If the holders of the Ordinary Shares receive only cash in such Merger Event, then for all conversions for which
the relevant Conversion Date occurs after the effective date of such Merger Event (A) the Company will be deemed to have elected Physical Settlement, (B) the consideration due upon conversion of each $1,000 principal amount of Notes shall be solely
cash in an amount equal to the Conversion Rate in effect on the Conversion Date (as may be increased by any Additional Shares pursuant to Section 14.03), multiplied by the price paid per Ordinary Share in
such Merger Event and (C) the Company shall satisfy the Conversion Obligation by paying cash to converting Holders on the second Business Day immediately following the relevant Conversion Date.
85
Such supplemental indenture described in the second immediately preceding paragraph shall (A) provide for anti-dilution and other adjustments that shall be as nearly equivalent as is possible to the
adjustments provided for in this Article 14 and (B) contain such other provisions, if any, that the Board of Directors or a committee thereof determines in good faith are appropriate to preserve the economic interest of the Holders and to give effect
to the provisions described above. If, in the case of any Merger Event, the Reference Property includes shares of stock, securities or other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) of a Person other than the successor or
purchasing corporation, as the case may be, in such Merger Event, then such supplemental indenture shall also be executed by such other Person and shall contain such additional provisions to protect the interests of the Holders of the Notes as the
Board of Directors or a committee thereof shall reasonably consider necessary by reason of the foregoing, including the provisions providing for the purchase rights set forth in Article 15. The Company will, as soon as reasonably practicable after
the effective date of such Merger Event, post such supplemental indenture on the Company’s website and disclose the same in a current report on Form 6-K (or any successor form) that is filed with the SEC.
(c) When the Company executes a supplemental indenture pursuant to
subsection (a) of this Section 14.07, the Company shall promptly file with the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate briefly stating the reasons therefor, the kind or amount of cash, securities or property or asset that will comprise a unit of Reference
Property after any such Merger Event, any adjustment to be made with respect thereto and that all conditions precedent have been complied with, and shall promptly deliver notice thereof to all Holders. The Company shall cause notice of the
execution of such supplemental indenture to be delivered to each Holder within 20 days after execution thereof. Failure to deliver such notice shall not affect the legality or validity of such supplemental indenture.
(d) The Company shall not become a party to any Merger Event unless
its terms are consistent with this Section 14.07. None of the foregoing provisions shall affect the right of a holder of Notes to convert its Notes into cash, Ordinary Shares or a combination of cash and Ordinary Shares, as applicable, as set
forth in Section 14.01 and Section 14.02 prior to the effective date of such Merger Event.
(e) The above provisions of this Section shall similarly apply to
successive Merger Events.
Section 14.08. Certain Covenants. Article 28 The Company covenants that all
Ordinary Shares issued upon conversion of Notes will be fully paid and non-assessable by the Company and free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issue thereof.
(b) The Company covenants that, if any Ordinary Shares to be provided
for the purpose of conversion of Notes hereunder require registration with or approval of any governmental authority under any Israeli law before such Ordinary Shares may be validly issued upon conversion, the Company will, to the extent then
permitted by the rules and interpretations of the Commission, secure such registration or approval, as the case may be.
86
(c) The Company further covenants that if at any time the Ordinary
Shares shall be listed on any national securities exchange or automated quotation system the Company will list and keep listed, so long as the Ordinary Shares shall be so listed on such exchange or automated quotation system, any Ordinary Shares
issuable upon conversion of the Notes.
Section 14.09. Responsibility of Trustee. The Trustee and any other Conversion Agent shall not at any time be under any
duty or responsibility to any Holder to determine the Conversion Rate (or any adjustment thereto) or whether any facts exist that may require any adjustment (including any increase) of the Conversion Rate, or with respect to the nature or extent or
calculation of any such adjustment when made, or with respect to the method employed, or herein or in any supplemental indenture provided to be employed, in making the same. The Trustee and any other Conversion Agent shall not be accountable with
respect to the validity or value (or the kind or amount) of any Ordinary Shares, or of any securities, property or cash that may at any time be issued or delivered upon the conversion of any Note; and the Trustee and any other Conversion Agent make
no representations with respect thereto. Neither the Trustee nor any Conversion Agent shall be responsible for any failure of the Company to issue, transfer or deliver any Ordinary Shares or share certificates or other securities or property or cash
upon the surrender of any Note for the purpose of conversion or to comply with any of the duties, responsibilities or covenants of the Company contained in this Article. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, neither the Trustee nor any
Conversion Agent shall be under any responsibility to determine the correctness of any provisions contained in any supplemental indenture entered into pursuant to Section 14.07 relating either to the kind or amount of shares of stock or securities or
property (including cash) receivable by Holders upon the conversion of their Notes after any event referred to in such Section 14.07 or to any adjustment to be made with respect thereto, but, subject to the provisions of Section 7.01, may accept
(without any independent investigation) as conclusive evidence of the correctness of any such provisions, and shall be protected in relying upon, the Officers’ Certificate (which the Company shall be obligated to file with the Trustee prior to the
execution of any such supplemental indenture) with respect thereto. Neither the Trustee nor the Conversion Agent shall be responsible for determining whether any event contemplated by Section 14.01(b) has occurred that makes the Notes eligible for
conversion or no longer eligible therefor until the Company has delivered to the Trustee and the Conversion Agent the notices referred to in Section 14.01(b) with respect to the commencement or termination of such conversion rights, on which notices
the Trustee and the Conversion Agent may conclusively rely, and the Company agrees to deliver such notices to the Trustee and the Conversion Agent immediately after the occurrence of any such event or at such other times as shall be provided for in
Section 14.01(b).
(a) action by the Company or one of its Subsidiaries that would
require an adjustment in the Conversion Rate pursuant to Section 14.04 or Section 14.11;
(b) Merger Event (other than with respect to any Merger Event
pursuant to which the Company is required to provide notice pursuant to Section 14.01(b)(iii), in which case the notice shall be given pursuant to such Section); or
87
(c) voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding-up
of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries;
then, in each case (unless notice of such event is otherwise required pursuant to another provision of this Indenture), the Company shall cause to be filed with the Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the
Trustee) and to be delivered to each Holder, as promptly as possible but in any event at least 20 days prior to the applicable date hereinafter specified, a notice stating (i) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such action
by the Company or one of its Subsidiaries or, if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of record of Ordinary Shares are to be determined for the purposes of such action by the Company or one of its Subsidiaries, or (ii) the
date on which such Merger Event, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up is expected to become effective or occur, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of record of Ordinary Shares shall be entitled to exchange their Ordinary Shares
for securities or other property deliverable upon such Merger Event, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up. Failure to give such notice, or any defect therein, shall not affect the legality or validity of such action by the Company or one of its
Subsidiaries, Merger Event, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up.
Section 14.11. Shareholder Rights Plans. If the Company has a shareholder rights plan in effect upon conversion of the
Notes, each Ordinary Share, if any, issued upon such conversion shall be entitled to receive the appropriate number of rights, if any, and the certificates representing the Ordinary Shares issued upon such conversion shall bear such legends, if any,
in each case as may be provided by the terms of any such shareholder rights plan, as the same may be amended from time to time. However, if, prior to any conversion of Notes, the rights have separated from the Ordinary Shares in accordance with the
provisions of the applicable shareholder rights plan, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted at the time of separation as if the Company distributed to all or substantially all holders of the Ordinary Shares Distributed Property as provided in Section
14.04(c).
(a) When a Holder surrenders Notes for conversion, the Company may,
at its election, direct the Conversion Agent to surrender, on or prior to the Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding the first Trading Day of the applicable Observation Period (or, if the Company has elected Physical Settlement, on or prior to
the Business Day immediately following the relevant Conversion Date), such Notes to a financial institution designated by the Company for exchange in lieu of conversion (each, an “Exchange in Lieu of Conversion”).
In order to accept any Notes surrendered for conversion, the designated financial institution must agree to pay and/or deliver, as the case may be, in exchange for such Notes, all of the cash, Ordinary Shares or a combination thereof due upon
conversion, all in accordance with Section 14.02. By the close of business on the Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding the first Trading Day of the applicable Observation Period (or, if the Company has elected Physical Settlement, by the
close of business on the Business Day immediately following the relevant Conversion Date), the Company shall notify the Holder surrendering Notes for conversion that the Company has directed the designated financial institution to make an Exchange
in Lieu of Conversion.
88
(b) If the designated financial institution accepts any such Notes,
it will pay and/or deliver, as the case may be, the cash, Ordinary Shares or a combination thereof due upon conversion to the Conversion Agent, and the Conversion Agent will pay and/or deliver such cash and/or Ordinary Shares to such Holder on the
second Business Day immediately following the last Trading Day of the applicable Observation Period (or, if the Company has elected Physical Settlement, on the second Business Day immediately following the relevant Conversion Date). Any Notes
exchanged by the designated institution will remain outstanding. If the designated financial institution agrees to accept any Notes for exchange but does not timely pay and/or deliver the related cash, Ordinary Shares or a combination thereof, as
the case may be, or if such designated financial institution does not accept the Notes for exchange, the Company shall convert the Notes and pay and/or deliver, as the case may be, the cash, Ordinary Shares or a combination thereof due upon
conversion on the second Business Day immediately following the last Trading Day of the applicable Observation Period (or, if the Company has elected Physical Settlement, on the second Business Day immediately following the relevant Conversion
Date) in accordance with Section 14.02.
(c) The Company’s designation of a financial institution to which the
Notes may be submitted for exchange does not require the financial institution to accept any Notes (unless the financial institution has separately made an agreement with the Company). The Company may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into a
separate agreement with any designated financial institution that would compensate the Company for any such transaction.
Section 15.02. Repurchase at Option of Holders Upon a Fundamental Change.
Article 29 If a Fundamental Change occurs at any time prior to the Maturity Date, each Holder shall have the right, at such Holder’s option, to require the Company to repurchase for cash all of such Holder’s Notes, or any portion of the principal
thereof that is equal to $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000, on the date (the “Fundamental Change Repurchase Date”) specified by the Company that is not less than 20 calendar days or more than 35 calendar
days following the date of the Fundamental Change Company Notice at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus any accrued and unpaid Special Interest thereon to, but excluding,
the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date (the “Fundamental Change Repurchase Price”), unless the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date falls after a Special Interest Record Date but on or prior to the Special
Interest Payment Date to which such Special Interest Record Date relates, in which case the Company shall instead pay the full amount of any accrued and unpaid Special Interest to Holders of record as of such Special Interest Record Date, and the
Fundamental Change Repurchase Price shall be equal to 100% of the principal amount of Notes to be repurchased pursuant to this Article 15.
89
(b) Repurchases of Notes under this Section 15.02 shall be made, at
the option of the Holder thereof, upon:
(i) delivery to the Paying Agent by a Holder of a duly completed notice (the “Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice”) in the form set
forth in Attachment 2 to the Form of Note attached hereto as Exhibit A, if the Notes are Physical Notes, or in compliance with the Depositary’s procedures for surrendering interests in Global Notes, if the Notes are Global Notes, in each case on or
before the close of business on the second Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date; and
(ii) delivery of the Notes, if the Notes are Physical Notes, to the Paying Agent at any time after delivery of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice (together with all
necessary endorsements for transfer) at the Corporate Trust Office of the Paying Agent, or book-entry transfer of the Notes, if the Notes are Global Notes, in compliance with the procedures of the Depositary, in each case such delivery being a
condition to receipt by the Holder of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price therefor.
The Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice in respect of any Notes to be repurchased shall state:
(i) in the case of Physical Notes, the certificate numbers of the Notes to be delivered for repurchase;
(ii) the portion of the principal amount of Notes to be repurchased, which must be $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof; and
(iii) that the Notes are to be repurchased by the Company pursuant to the applicable provisions of the Notes and this Indenture;
provided, however, that if the Notes are Global Notes, to exercise the repurchase right, Holders must surrender their Notes and otherwise
comply with appropriate Depositary procedures.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any Holder delivering to the Paying Agent the Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice contemplated by this Section 15.02 shall have the right to withdraw,
in whole or in part, such Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice at any time prior to the close of business on the second Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date by delivery of a written notice of withdrawal
to the Paying Agent in accordance with Section 15.03.
The Paying Agent shall promptly notify the Company of the receipt by it of any Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice or written notice of withdrawal thereof.
90
(c) On or before the 20th calendar day after the occurrence of the
effective date of a Fundamental Change, the Company shall provide to all Holders of Notes and the Trustee and the Paying Agent (in the case of a Paying Agent other than the Trustee) a written notice (the “Fundamental
Change Company Notice”) of the occurrence of the effective date of the Fundamental Change and of the repurchase right at the option of the Holders arising as a result thereof. In the case of Physical Notes, such notice shall be by first
class mail or, in the case of Global Notes, such notice shall be delivered in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary. Each Fundamental Change Company Notice shall specify:
(i) the events causing the Fundamental Change;
(ii) the effective date of the Fundamental Change;
(iii) the last date on which a Holder may exercise the repurchase right pursuant to this Article 15;
(iv) the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price;
(v) the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date;
(vi) the name and address of the Paying Agent and the Conversion Agent, if applicable;
(vii) if applicable, the Conversion Rate and any adjustments to the Conversion Rate as a result of such Fundamental Change;
(viii) that the Notes with respect to which a Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice has been delivered by a Holder may be converted only if the Holder validly withdraws the
Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice in accordance with the terms of this Indenture; and
(ix) the procedures that Holders must follow to require the Company to repurchase their Notes.
No failure of the Company to give the foregoing notices and no defect therein shall limit the Holders’ repurchase rights or affect the validity of the proceedings for the repurchase of the Notes
pursuant to this Section 15.02.
At the Company’s request, the Trustee shall give such notice in the Company’s name and at the Company’s expense; provided,
however, that, in all cases, the text of such Fundamental Change Company Notice shall be prepared by the Company.
(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Notes may be repurchased by the
Company on any date at the option of the Holders upon a Fundamental Change if the principal amount of the Notes has been accelerated, and such acceleration has not been rescinded, on or prior to such date (except in the case of an acceleration
resulting from a Default by the Company in the payment of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price with respect to such Notes). The Paying Agent will promptly return to the respective Holders thereof any Physical Notes held by it during the
acceleration of the Notes (except in the case of an acceleration resulting from a Default by the Company in the payment of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price with respect to such Notes), or any instructions for book-entry transfer of the Notes

Company shall be deemed to satisfy its obligations to repurchase Notes upon a Fundamental Change pursuant to this Article 15 if one or more third parties conduct the repurchase offer and repurchase Notes surrendered for repurchase in a manner that
would have satisfied the Company’s obligations to do the same if conducted directly by the Company.
(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture, the
Company shall not be required to send a Fundamental Change Company Notice, or offer to repurchase or repurchase any Notes pursuant to this Article 15, in connection with a Fundamental Change occurring pursuant to clause (b)(A) or (b)(B) (or

(i) such Fundamental Change constitutes a Merger Event for which the resulting Reference Property consists entirely of cash in U.S. dollars;
(ii) immediately after such Fundamental Change, the Notes become convertible (pursuant to the provisions described in Section 14.07 and, if applicable, Section 14.03) into
consideration that consists solely of U.S. dollars in an amount per $1,000 principal amount of Notes that equals or exceeds the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price per $1,000 principal amount of Notes (calculated assuming that such Fundamental Change
Repurchase Price includes accrued and unpaid Special Interest, if any, to but excluding the latest possible Fundamental Change Repurchase Date for such Fundamental Change); and
(iii) the Company timely sends the notice relating to such Fundamental Change required pursuant to Section 14.01(b)(iii).

(i) the principal amount of the Notes with respect to which such notice of withdrawal is being submitted, which principal amount must be $1,000 or an integral multiple of
$1,000,
(ii) in the case of Physical Notes, the certificate number of the Note in respect of which such notice of withdrawal is being submitted, and
92
(iii) the 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

Section 15.04. Deposit of Fundamental Change Repurchase Price. Article 31 The Company will deposit with the Trustee (or
other Paying Agent appointed by the Company, or if the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent, set aside, segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 4.04) on or prior to 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Fundamental Change Repurchase
Date an amount of money sufficient to repurchase all of the Notes to be repurchased at the appropriate Fundamental Change Repurchase Price. Subject to receipt of funds and/or Notes by the Trustee (or other Paying Agent appointed by the Company),
payment for Notes surrendered for repurchase (and not withdrawn prior to the close of business on the second Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date) will be made on the later of (i) the Fundamental Change
Repurchase Date (provided the Holder has satisfied the conditions in Section 15.02) and (ii) the time of book-entry transfer or the delivery of such Note to the Trustee (or other Paying Agent appointed by the
Company) by the Holder thereof in the manner required by Section 15.02 by mailing checks for the amount payable to the Holders of such Notes entitled thereto as they shall appear in the Note Register; provided,
however, that payments to the Depositary shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of the Depositary or its nominee. The Trustee shall, promptly after such payment and upon
written demand by the Company, return to the Company any funds in excess of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price.
(b) If by 11:00 a.m. New York City time, on the Fundamental Change
Repurchase Date, the Trustee (or other Paying Agent appointed by the Company) holds money sufficient to make payment on all the Notes or portions thereof that are to be repurchased on such Fundamental Change Repurchase Date, then, with respect to
the Notes that have been properly surrendered for repurchase and have not been validly withdrawn, Article 32 such Notes will cease to be outstanding, Article 33 Special Interest, if and to the extent that any such accrued and unpaid Special
Interest exists as of such date, will cease to accrue on such Notes (whether or not book-entry transfer of the Notes has been made or the Notes have been delivered to the Trustee or Paying Agent) and Article 34 all other rights of the Holders of
such Notes will terminate (other than the right to receive the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price and, if applicable, accrued and unpaid Special Interest).
(c) Upon surrender of a Note that is to be repurchased in part
pursuant to Section 15.02, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder a new Note in an authorized denomination equal in principal amount to the unrepurchased portion of the Note surrendered.
93

offer, the Company will, if required:
(a) comply with the provisions of Rule 13e-4, Rule 14e-1 and any
other tender offer rules under the Exchange Act;
(b) file a Schedule TO or any other required schedule under the
Exchange Act; and
(c) otherwise comply with (x) all federal and state securities laws
and (y) laws and regulations applicable to the Company under the laws of the Company’s place of incorporation and/or by virtue of the Ordinary Shares being listed on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange in connection with any offer by the Company to
repurchase the Notes;
in each case, so as to permit the rights and obligations under this Article 15 to be exercised in the time and in the manner specified in this Article 15. To the extent that the provisions of any federal or state
applicable securities laws or regulations adopted subsequent to October 13, 2020 conflict with the provisions of this Indenture relating to the Company’s obligations to purchase the Notes upon a Fundamental Change, the Company will comply with such
applicable federal and state securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under such provisions of this Indenture by virtue of such conflict.
(a) The Company may redeem the Notes for cash, in whole but not in
part (except in respect of Holders that elect otherwise as described below), at the Company’s option (a “Tax Redemption”) at the Redemption Price (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any Additional Amounts
with respect to such Redemption Price) if, on the next date (with respect to Special Interest) or on a future date (with respect to any conversion consideration, assuming that the Notes are convertible at that time) (the “Earliest Tax Redemption Date”) on which any amount would be payable or delivery owed in respect of the Notes, the Company would be required to pay any Additional Amounts, and the Company cannot avoid any such payment obligation by
taking reasonable measures available to the Company (provided that listing the Notes on a recognized stock exchange for purposes of Sections 9(15D) and 97(B2) of the Israeli Income Tax Ordinance is, and
changing the Company’s jurisdiction is not, a reasonable measure for purposes of this Section 16.01(a)) as a result of:
(i) any amendment to, or change in, the laws, tax treaties, or any regulations, protocols or rulings promulgated thereunder of a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction that is
formally announced and becomes effective, in each case, after November 17, 2021 (or, if the applicable Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction becomes a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction on a date after November 17, 2021, such later date);
(ii) any amendment to, or change in, an official interpretation or application regarding such laws, tax treaties, regulations, protocols or rulings, including by virtue of a
holding, judgment or order by a court of competent jurisdiction or a change in administrative practice that is formally announced and becomes effective, in each case, after November 17, 2021 (or, if the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction becomes a Relevant
Taxing Jurisdiction on a date after November 17, 2021, such later date) (any such amendment or change described in clauses (i) or (ii), a “Change in Tax Law”); or
94
(iii) any adoption of an administrative practice or policy, an interpretation or application or otherwise a formal announcement (including a private letter ruling,
circulars, publications) by Israel (or any political subdivision thereof or any government authority therein or thereof having power to tax) or a decision or ruling by a court of competent jurisdiction within Israel (a “Tax Event”), according to which the conversion consideration upon a conversion of the Notes in whole or in material part is or will be during the remaining term of the Notes treated as subject to Israeli tax withholding (the “Conversion Consideration Withholding”); and
(b) in the case of clause (i), (ii) or (iii), the Company shall
deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel (such counsel of recognized standing in the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction) attesting to such Change in Tax Law or the Tax Event having occurred (as applicable) and an Officers’ Certificate attesting to an
obligation to pay Additional Amounts and that the obligation to pay Additional Amounts could not be avoided by taking reasonable measures available to the Company. The Trustee will accept such Officers’ Certificate and Opinion of Counsel as
sufficient evidence of the existence and satisfaction of the conditions precedent as described above, in which event it will be conclusive and binding on the Holders of the Notes absent fraud or manifest error.
(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any Additional
Amounts payable in respect of withholding tax imposed by Israel (or any political subdivision thereof or any taxing authority therein or thereof having power to tax) on payments of Special Interest (other than Conversion Consideration Withholding),
if any, with respect to a Note at the rate of 25% or less shall not, for the purposes of exercising a Tax Redemption, be considered to have resulted from a Change in Tax Law to the extent the obligation to pay such Additional Amounts arises as a
result of Israel (or any political subdivision thereof or any taxing authority therein or thereof having power to tax) being a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction with respect to the Company or any Successor Company.
(a) In case the Company exercises its Tax Redemption right pursuant
to Section 16.01, it shall fix a date for Tax Redemption (each, a “Tax Redemption Date”) and it or, at its written request received by the Trustee not less than 70 Scheduled Trading Days prior to the Tax
Redemption 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 Tax Redemption (a “Notice of Tax Redemption”) not less than 50 nor more than 65 Scheduled Trading Days prior to the Tax Redemption Date to each Holder of Notes (the date such notice is delivered, the “Tax Redemption Notice Date”); provided, however, that, if the Company shall give such notice, it shall also give written notice of the Tax
Redemption Date to the Trustee, the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee) and the Paying Agent. A Notice of Tax Redemption may not be subject to conditions. The Tax Redemption Date must be a Business Day. The Tax Redemption Date must be a
Business Day, and the Company shall not specify a Tax Redemption Date that falls on or after the 41st Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding the Maturity Date. Simultaneously with providing a Notice of Tax Redemption, the Company shall
publish, or cause to be published, a notice containing the information set forth in such Notice of Tax Redemption on the Company’s website or through such other public medium as the Company may use at that time.
95
(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture, the
Company will not give any such Notice of Tax Redemption earlier than 90 days prior to the Earliest Tax Redemption Date, and, at the time such Notice of Tax Redemption is given, the obligation to pay Additional Amounts must remain in effect.
(c) The Notice of Tax 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 Tax Redemption in the manner herein provided or any defect in the Notice of Tax Redemption
to the Holder of any Note designated for Tax Redemption shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the Tax Redemption of any other Note.
(d) Each Notice of Tax Redemption shall specify:
(i) the Tax Redemption Date;
(ii) the Redemption Price;
(iii) the place or places where such Notes are to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price;
(iv) that on the Tax Redemption Date, the Redemption Price will become due and payable upon each Note to be redeemed, and that the Special Interest thereon, if any, shall
cease to accrue on and after the Tax Redemption Date;
(v) that Holders may surrender all or any portion of their Notes for conversion at any time on or after the Tax Redemption Notice Date and prior to the close of business on
the second Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding the Tax Redemption Date or, if the Company fails to pay the Redemption Price, such later date on which the Company pays the Redemption Price;
(vi) the procedures a converting Holder must follow to convert its Notes and the Settlement Method and Specified Dollar Amount, if applicable, applicable to any conversion
of Notes occurring at any time on or after the Tax Redemption Notice Date and prior to the close of business on the second Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding the Tax Redemption Date;
96
(vii) that Holders have the right to elect not to have their Notes redeemed by delivering to the Trustee written notice to that effect not later than the 15th Business Day
prior to the Tax Redemption Date;
(viii) that Holders who wish to elect not to have their Notes redeemed must satisfy the requirements set forth in this Indenture;
(ix) that, on and after the Tax Redemption Date, Holders who elect not to have their Notes redeemed will not receive any Additional Amounts on any payments with respect to
such Notes (whether upon conversion, repurchase, maturity or otherwise), and all subsequent payments with respect to the Notes will be subject to any tax required to be withheld or deducted under the laws of the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction, provided that a Holder complying with the requirements for conversion described under Section 14.02 before the close of business on the second Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding the Tax Redemption Date
will be deemed to have validly delivered a notice of its election not to have its Notes redeemed, and the Company, will pay Additional Amounts, if any are due, with respect to such Holder’s conversion of its Notes;
(x) the Conversion Rate (including any Additional Shares added thereto for Holders that convert their at any time from, and including, the Tax Redemption Notice Date until
the close of business on the second Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding the related Tax Redemption Date (or, if the Company fails to pay the Redemption Price, such later date on which the Company pays or duly provides for the Redemption

(xi) the CUSIP, ISIN or other similar numbers, if any, assigned to such Notes.
A Notice of Tax Redemption shall be irrevocable.
Section 16.03. Payment of Notes Called for Tax Redemption. Article 35 If any Notice of Tax Redemption has been given

surrender of the Notes at the place or places stated in the Notice of Tax Redemption, the Notes shall be paid and redeemed by the Company at the applicable Redemption Price.
(b) Prior to 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Tax Redemption
Date, the Company shall deposit with the Paying Agent or, if the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company is acting as the Paying Agent, shall segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 7.05 an amount of cash in immediately available funds,
sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of all of the Notes to be redeemed on such Tax Redemption Date. Subject to receipt of funds by the Paying Agent, payment for the Notes to be redeemed shall be made on the Tax Redemption Date for such Notes.
The Paying Agent shall, promptly after such payment and upon written demand by the Company, return to the Company any funds in excess of the Redemption Price.
97

the Company has given a Notice of Tax Redemption as described in Section 16.02, each Holder of Notes will have the right to elect that such Holder’s Notes will not be subject to the Tax Redemption. If a Holder elects that its Notes will not be
subject to the Tax Redemption, the Company will not be required to pay Additional Amounts with respect to payments made in respect of such Notes following the Tax Redemption Date as a result of such Change in Tax Law that resulted in the obligation
to pay such Additional Amounts (for the avoidance of doubt, excluding any obligation to pay Additional Amounts (if any) that did not result from a Change in Tax Law for which the Company will continue to pay Additional Amounts), and all subsequent
payments in respect of such Notes will be subject to any tax required to be withheld or deducted under the laws of a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction. The obligation to pay Additional Amounts to any electing Holder for payments made in periods prior to
the Tax Redemption Date shall continue to apply, subject to the exceptions set forth under Section 4.10. Subject to applicable procedures of DTC in the case of Global Notes, Holders must exercise their option to elect to avoid the Tax Redemption by
written notice thereof to the Trustee no later than the 15th Business Day prior to the Tax Redemption Date; provided that a Holder complying with the requirements for conversion pursuant to Section
14.02 before the close of business on the second Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding the Tax Redemption Date shall be deemed to have validly delivered a notice of its election not to have its Notes redeemed in the Tax Redemption, and the
Company will pay Additional Amounts, if any are due, with respect to such Holder’s conversion of its Notes. If no election is made or deemed to have been made, the Holder will have its Notes redeemed without any further action.
Section 16.05. Restrictions on Tax Redemption. The Company may not redeem any Notes on any date if the principal amount
of the Notes has been accelerated in accordance with the terms of this Indenture, and such acceleration has not been rescinded, on or prior to the Tax Redemption Date (except in the case of an acceleration resulting from a Default by the Company in

the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee) and the Paying Agent. A Notice of Optional Redemption may not be subject to conditions. The Optional Redemption Date must be a Business Day, and the Company shall not specify an Optional Redemption
Date that falls on or after the 41st Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding the Maturity Date. Simultaneously with providing a Notice of Optional Redemption, the Company shall publish, or cause to be published, a notice containing the
information set forth in such Notice of Optional Redemption on the Company’s website or through such other public medium as the Company may use at that time.
(b) The Notice of Optional 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 Optional Redemption by mail or any defect in the Notice of Optional Redemption to
the Holder of any Note designated for Optional Redemption as a whole or in part shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the Optional Redemption of any other Note.

(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 Optional Redemption Date, upon
surrender of such Note, a new Note in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion thereof shall be issued.
A Notice of Optional Redemption shall be irrevocable.
(d) If the Company elects to redeem fewer than all of the outstanding
Notes pursuant to Section 17.01, at least $50,000,000 aggregate principal amount of Notes must be outstanding and not subject to Optional Redemption pursuant to the relevant Notice of Optional Redemption as of the Optional Redemption Notice Date
(such requirement, the “Partial Redemption Limitation”). If the Company decides to redeem fewer than all of the outstanding Notes, the Notes to be redeemed will be selected according to the Depositary’s
applicable procedures, in the case of Notes represented by a Global Note, or, in the case of Notes in certificated form, the Trustee shall select, in such manner as it shall deem appropriate and fair, Notes to be redeemed in whole or in part. If
any Note selected for partial Optional 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 Optional
Redemption. If the Company elects to redeem fewer than all of the outstanding Notes, Holders of the Notes not called for Optional Redemption will not be entitled to convert such Notes (at an increased Conversion Rate for such Notes or otherwise) on
account of such Optional Redemption, except in the limited circumstances set forth under Section 14.01(b)(v).

the authentication and delivery of Notes by the authenticating agent shall be deemed to be authentication and delivery of such Notes “by the Trustee” and a certificate of authentication executed on behalf of the Trustee by an authenticating agent
shall be deemed to satisfy any requirement hereunder or in the Notes for the Trustee’s certificate of authentication. Such authenticating agent shall at all times be a Person eligible to serve as trustee hereunder pursuant to Section 7.08.

Any corporation or other entity into which any authenticating agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation or other entity resulting from any merger,
consolidation or conversion to which any authenticating agent shall be a party, or any corporation or other entity succeeding to the corporate trust business of any authenticating agent, shall be the successor of the authenticating agent hereunder,
if such successor corporation or other entity is otherwise eligible under this Section 18.10, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of the parties hereto or the authenticating agent or such successor corporation
or other entity.
Any authenticating agent may at any time resign by giving written notice of resignation to the Trustee and to the Company. The Trustee may at any time terminate the agency of any authenticating agent
by giving written notice of termination to such authenticating agent and to the Company. Upon receiving such a notice of resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at any time any authenticating agent shall cease to be eligible under this
Section, the Trustee may appoint a successor authenticating agent (which may be the Trustee), shall give written notice of such appointment to the Company and shall deliver notice of such appointment to all Holders.
The Company agrees to pay to the authenticating agent from time to time reasonable compensation for its services although the Company may terminate the authenticating agent, if it determines such
agent’s fees to be unreasonable.
The provisions of Section 7.02, Section 7.03, Section 7.04, Section 8.03 and this Section 18.10 shall be applicable to any authenticating agent.
If an authenticating agent is appointed pursuant to this Section 18.10, the Notes may have endorsed thereon, in addition to the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, an alternative certificate of
authentication in the following form:
__________________________,
as Authenticating Agent, certifies that this is one of the Notes described

[FORM OF REVERSE OF NOTE]
CAMTEK LTD.
0% Convertible Senior Note due 2026
0% Convertible Senior Note due 2026
This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of Notes of the Company, designated as its 0% Convertible Senior Notes due 2026 (the “Notes”), limited to the
aggregate principal amount of $200,000,000 all issued or to be issued under and pursuant to an Indenture dated as of November 23, 2021 (the “Indenture”), between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association
(the “Trustee”), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a description of the rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities thereunder of the
Trustee, the Company and the Holders of the Notes. Additional Notes may be issued in an unlimited aggregate principal amount, subject to certain conditions specified in the Indenture. Capitalized terms used in this Note and not defined in this Note
shall have the respective meanings set forth in the Indenture.
In case certain Events of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the principal of, and any Special Interest on, all Notes may be declared, by either the Trustee or Holders of at least 25% in
aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding, and upon said declaration shall become, due and payable, in the manner, with the effect and subject to the conditions and certain exceptions set forth in the Indenture.
Subject to the terms and conditions of the Indenture, the Company will make all payments and deliveries in respect of the Redemption Price on the Redemption Date, the Fundamental Change Repurchase
Price on the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date and the principal amount on the Maturity Date, as the case may be, to the Holder who surrenders a Note to a Paying Agent to collect such payments in respect of the Note. The Company will pay cash
amounts in money of the United States that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts.
Subject to the terms and conditions of the Indenture, Additional Amounts will be paid for withholdings or deductions imposed by a Relevant Tax Jurisdiction in connection with any payments and
deliveries made or deemed made by the Company under or with respect to the Notes, including, but not limited to, payments of principal (including, if applicable, the Redemption Price and the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price), payments of Special
Interest, if any, and payments of cash and/or deliveries of Ordinary Shares (together with payments of cash in lieu of a fractional Ordinary Share) upon conversion, to ensure that the net amount received after such withholding or deduction (and after
deducting any taxes on the Additional Amounts) will equal the amount that would have been received had no such withholding or deduction been required.
The Indenture contains provisions permitting the Company and the Trustee in certain circumstances, without the consent of the Holders of the Notes, and in certain other circumstances, with the consent
of the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding, evidenced as in the Indenture provided, to execute supplemental indentures modifying the terms of the Indenture and the Notes as described
therein. It is also provided in the Indenture that, subject to certain exceptions, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes waive any past Default
or Event of Default under the Indenture and its consequences.
A - 6
Each Holder shall have the right to receive payment or delivery, as the case may be, of (x) the principal (including the Redemption Price and the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, if applicable) of,
(y) any accrued and unpaid Special Interest, if any, on, and (z) the consideration due upon conversion of, this Note at the place, at the respective times, at the rate and in the lawful money or Ordinary Shares, as the case may be, herein prescribed.
The Notes are issuable in registered form without coupons in denominations of $1,000 principal amount and integral multiples thereof. At the office or agency of the Company referred to on the face
hereof, and in the manner and subject to the limitations provided in the Indenture, Notes may be exchanged for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes of other authorized denominations, without payment of any service charge but, if required by the
Company or Trustee, with payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer or similar tax that may be imposed in connection therewith as a result of the name of the Holder of the new Notes issued upon such exchange of Notes being different from the
name of the Holder of the old Notes surrendered for such exchange.
Under certain circumstances specified in the Indenture, the Notes will be subject to Redemption by the Company at the Redemption Price. No sinking fund is provided for the Notes.
Upon the occurrence of a Fundamental Change, the Holder has the right, at such Holder’s option, to require the Company to repurchase for cash all of such Holder’s Notes or any portion thereof (in
principal amounts of $1,000 or integral multiples thereof) on the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date at a price equal to the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price.
Subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the Holder hereof has the right, at its option, during certain periods and upon the occurrence of certain conditions specified in the Indenture, prior to the
close of business on the second Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding the Maturity Date, to convert any Notes or portion thereof that is $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof, into cash, Ordinary Shares or a combination of cash and Ordinary
Shares, as applicable, at the Conversion Rate specified in the Indenture, as adjusted from time to time as provided in the Indenture.
