Any dividend payment made on the Convertible Preferred Stock shall first be credited against the earliest accumulated but unpaid dividends due with respect to those shares of Convertible Preferred Stock which remain payable.

When dividends are not paid in full (or a sum or number of shares

of Common Stock sufficient to pay them in full is not set apart) on Convertible Preferred Stock and any other Parity Stock, all dividends declared on the Convertible Preferred Stock and any other Parity Stock shall be paid pro rata so that the amount of dividends so declared per share of Convertible Preferred Stock and each such other class or series of Parity Stock shall in all cases bear to each other the same ratio as accumulated and unpaid dividends per share of Convertible Preferred Stock and such class or series of Parity Stock (which shall not include any accumulation in respect of unpaid dividends on such other class or series of Parity Stock if such other class or series of Parity Stock does not have a cumulative dividend) bear to each other.

(h) The Corporation shall not permit any Subsidiary of the Corporation to purchase or otherwise acquire for consideration any shares of stock of the Corporation unless the Corporation could, in accordance with Section 3D(4)(g), purchase or otherwise acquire such shares at such time and in such manner (such provisions described in this Section 3D(4)(h) and in Section 3D(4)(g) above, the “Dividend Blocker Provisions”).

(i) Any accumulated and unpaid dividends shall accumulate additional dividends (“Compounded Dividends”) at the then-current Dividend Rate until paid, compounded quarterly, to, but excluding, the payment date.

(5). Method of Payment of Dividends

(a) Subject to the limitations described in this Section 3D(5), and unless the Corporation has previously elected a Dividend Payment Method as set forth herein, the Corporation may pay any dividend (or any portion of any dividend) on the Convertible Preferred Stock (whether or not for a current Dividend Period or any prior Dividend Period) and any Compounded Dividends, determined in the sole discretion of the Board of Directors: (i) in cash; (ii) by delivery of shares of Common Stock; or (iii) through any combination of cash and shares of Common Stock.

(b) Each dividend shall be paid in cash, except to the extent the Corporation timely elects, or has previously elected, to make all or any portion of such dividend in shares of Common Stock. Unless it has previously irrevocably elected a Dividend Payment Method to apply as set forth below, the Corporation shall give notice to holders of the Convertible Preferred Stock of any election with respect to any particular dividend payment, the portions of such dividend payment that will be made in cash and the portion of such payment that will be made in Common Stock no later than eight Scheduled Trading Days prior to the Dividend Payment Date for such dividend.

(c) Any shares of Common Stock issued in payment or partial payment of a dividend shall be valued for such purpose at the applicable Five-Day Average Price, multiplied by 97%.

(d) Without the consent of any holders of the Convertible Preferred Stock, the Corporation may, by notice to such holders, irrevocably elect whether the Corporation will pay dividend payments in cash, shares of Common Stock or a combination thereof (a “Dividend Payment Method”) and, if applicable, the amount or percentage of a dividend payment to be paid in Common Stock, to apply to any dividend payment following such notice (unless a Dividend Payment Method has previously been designated) and, subject to the foregoing, specify the effective time of such election (which, for the avoidance of doubt, may be at any time subsequent to the delivery of such notice). The Corporation’s irrevocable election of a Dividend Payment Method as described herein may be made by the Corporation in its sole discretion.

(e) No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be delivered by the Corporation to holders of the Convertible Preferred Stock in payment or partial payment of a dividend. A cash adjustment shall be paid by the Corporation to each holder of Convertible Preferred Stock that would otherwise be entitled to receive a fraction of a share of Common Stock based on (x) the Five-Day Average Price and (y) the aggregate number of shares of Convertible Preferred Stock held by such holder (or if such holder’s shares of Convertible Preferred Stock are in the form of Global Preferred Shares, based on the applicable procedures of the Depositary for determining such number of shares).

(f) To the extent that the Corporation, in its reasonable judgment, determines that a Registration Statement is required in connection with the issuance of, or for resales of, Common Stock issued as a dividend, the Corporation shall, to the extent such a Registration Statement is not currently filed and effective, use its commercially reasonable efforts to file and maintain the effectiveness of such a Registration Statement until the earlier of such time as all such shares of Common Stock have been resold thereunder and such time as all such shares are freely tradable by non-Affiliates of the Corporation without registration. To the extent applicable, the Corporation shall also use its commercially reasonable efforts to have such shares of Common Stock qualified or registered under applicable state securities laws, if required, and approved for listing on the New York Stock Exchange (or if the Common Stock is not then listed on the New York Stock Exchange, on the principal other U.S. national or regional securities exchange on which the Common Stock is then listed).

(g) Any dividends paid in shares of Common Stock shall be subject to the listing standards of the New York Stock Exchange, if applicable.

(6). Liquidation Preference.

(a) In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary, before any payment or distribution of the Corporation’s assets (whether capital or surplus) shall be made to or set apart for the holders of Junior Stock, holders of Convertible Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive $1,000 per share of Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Liquidation Preference”) plus an amount equal to all dividends (whether or not authorized or declared), accumulated and unpaid thereon, if any, up to but excluding the date of final distribution to such holders, but subject to the prior payment in full of all the Corporation’s liabilities

and the payment of Senior Stock. If, upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Corporation, the Corporation’s assets, or proceeds thereof, are insufficient to pay in full the preferential amount aforesaid and liquidating payments on Convertible Preferred Stock and any other Parity Stock, then such assets, or the proceeds thereof, shall be distributed among the holders of the Convertible Preferred Stock and any other Parity Stock ratably in proportion to the respective amounts that would be payable on such shares of Convertible Preferred Stock and any such other Parity Stock as if all amounts payable thereon were paid in full.

(b) The Corporation shall instruct the Depositary to notify its participants, or if the Depositary or its nominee is not the sole registered owner of the then outstanding Convertible Preferred Stock, send a written notice by first class mail to each holder of record of the Convertible Preferred Stock at such holder’s registered address, of any event triggering the right to receive a distribution in connection with any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation.

(c) Neither the consolidation or merger with or into any other Person, nor the voluntary sale, lease, transfer or conveyance of all or substantially all of the Corporation’s property or assets shall be deemed to be a voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Corporation.

(i)    provide, not fewer than 25 Scheduled Trading Days nor more than 90 calendar days prior to the Redemption Date, to the Depositary a written notice (the “Redemption Notice”) stating, and instruct the Depositary to notify its participants of:

(A) the Redemption Date;

(B) the Redemption Price;

(C) the Settlement Method of the Convertible Preferred Stock if the holder elects to convert, or, if the Corporation has previously irrevocably elected a Settlement Method to apply, restate such Settlement Method;

(D) the name and address of the Paying Agent and Conversion Agent;

(E) that shares of Convertible Preferred Stock called for redemption may be converted pursuant to Section 3D(9) at any time before 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Business Day immediately preceding the Redemption Date;

(F) if fewer than all the Outstanding shares of the Convertible Preferred Stock are to be redeemed by the Corporation, the number of shares to be redeemed;

(G) that, unless the Corporation defaults in making payment of such Redemption Price, dividends in respect of the shares of Convertible Preferred Stock called for redemption will cease to accumulate on and after the Redemption Date;

(H) the CUSIP number of the Convertible Preferred Stock; and

(I) any other information the Corporation wishes to present;

(ii)    (A) issue a press release containing the information set forth in Section 3D(8)(b)(i) and (B) publish such information on the Corporation’s website; and

(iii)    if the Depositary or its nominee is not the sole registered owner of the then outstanding Convertible Preferred Stock, send the Redemption Notice by first class mail to each holder of record of the Convertible Preferred Stock at such holder’s registered address; provided, however, that such Redemption Notice shall also state that the certificates evidencing the shares of the Convertible Preferred Stock called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect the Redemption Price.

(c) The Corporation shall not give any Notice of Redemption prior to the earlier of a Remarketing Settlement Date and the Purchase Contract Settlement Date.

(d) If the Corporation gives notice of redemption, then, by 12:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Redemption Date, to the extent sufficient funds are legally available, the Corporation shall, with respect to:

(i)    shares of the Convertible Preferred Stock registered in the name of the Depositary or its nominee, deposit or cause to be deposited, irrevocably with the Depositary cash sufficient to pay the Redemption Price; and

(ii)    shares of the Convertible Preferred Stock registered in the name of any holder other than the Depositary or its nominee, deposit or cause to be deposited, irrevocably with the Paying Agent cash sufficient to pay the Redemption Price and give the Paying Agent irrevocable instructions and authority to pay the Redemption Price to holders of such shares of the Convertible Preferred Stock upon surrender to the Paying Agent of their certificates evidencing their shares of the Convertible Preferred Stock.

(e) If on the Redemption Date, the Depositary and/or the Paying Agent holds or hold money sufficient to pay the Redemption Price for the shares of Convertible Preferred Stock to be redeemed, dividends, if any, shall cease to accumulate as of the Redemption Date on those shares of the Convertible Preferred Stock called for redemption and all rights of holders of such shares shall terminate, except for the right to receive the Redemption Price pursuant to this Section 3D(8), and such shares shall no longer be deemed to be Outstanding and any appropriate annotation on the certificates representing such shares to reflect such reduced balance shall be made.

(f) Payment of the Redemption Price for shares of the Convertible Preferred Stock of which the Depositary (or its nominee) is not the sole registered owner is conditioned upon surrender of certificates representing such Convertible Preferred Stock, together with necessary endorsements, to the Paying Agent at any time after delivery of the Redemption Notice.

(g) Payment of the Redemption Price for shares of the Convertible Preferred Stock shall be made on the Redemption Date, subject to Section 3D(8)(f).

(h) If the Redemption Date falls after a Record Date that occurs after a Dividend Increase Remarketing and before the related Dividend Payment Date, holders of the shares of Convertible Preferred Stock at the close of business on that Record Date shall be entitled to receive the dividend payable on those shares on the corresponding Dividend Payment Date.

(i) If fewer than all the Outstanding shares of Convertible Preferred Stock are to be redeemed, the number of shares to be redeemed shall be determined by the Board of Directors and the shares to be redeemed shall be selected by lot, on a pro rata basis (with any fractional shares being rounded to the nearest whole share), or any other method as may be determined by the Board of Directors to be fair and appropriate.

(j) Upon surrender of a certificate or certificates representing shares of the Convertible Preferred Stock that is or are redeemed in part, the Corporation shall execute, and the Transfer Agent shall authenticate and deliver to the holder, a new certificate or certificates representing shares of the Convertible Preferred Stock in an amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the shares of Convertible Preferred Stock surrendered for partial redemption.

(k) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 3D(8), the Corporation shall not authorize, issue a press release or give a Redemption Notice unless (A) the Corporation has funds legally available for the payment of the aggregate Redemption Price and (B) prior to giving such notice, (i) all accumulated and unpaid dividends on the Convertible Preferred Stock (whether or not declared) for Dividend Periods ended prior to the date of such notice shall have been or contemporaneously are declared and paid out of legally available funds and (ii) if the Redemption Date occurs following a Record Date that occurs after a Dividend Increase Remarketing and prior to the related Dividend Payment Date, a cash dividend for the related Dividend Period has been declared and sufficient funds legally available therefor have been set aside for payment of such dividend.

(9). Conversion.

(a) Right to Convert. Shares of Convertible Preferred Stock corresponding to Applicable Ownership Interests in Convertible Preferred Stock that are components of Corporate Units cannot be converted. Only Separate Shares of Convertible Preferred Stock can be converted. Subject to and upon compliance with the provisions of this Section 3D(9), each holder of a Separate Share of Convertible Preferred Stock shall have the right, at such holder’s option, to convert such share (x) subject to satisfaction of the condition described in clause (i) below, at any time prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding November 15, 2022 under the circumstances and during the periods set forth in clause (i) below, and (y) regardless of the conditions described in clause (i) below, at any time on or after November 15, 2022, in each case, at the Conversion Rate per share of Convertible Preferred Stock (subject to and in accordance with clause (d) below). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any shares of Convertible Preferred Stock are called for redemption pursuant to Section 3D(8), such conversion right shall cease and terminate, as to the shares of the Convertible Preferred Stock to be redeemed, at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Business Day immediately preceding the Redemption Date, unless the Corporation shall default in the payment of the Redemption Price therefor, as provided herein.

(i)    If a transaction or event that constitutes a Fundamental Change occurs prior to a Successful Remarketing (or, if the Corporation has made the FC Remarketing Election, regardless of when the Fundamental Change occurs), all or any integral number of a holder’s Separate Shares of Convertible Preferred Stock may be surrendered for conversion at any time from or after the Effective Date of such transaction until 35 Trading Days after such Effective Date (such right of conversion, the “Fundamental Change Conversion Right”). If a transaction or event that constitutes a Fundamental Change occurs on or after a Successful Remarketing (except if the Corporation has made the FC Remarketing Election), there shall be no Fundamental Change Conversion Right.

Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary herein, the Corporation may, in connection with a Remarketing of the Convertible Preferred Stock, elect for the Fundamental Change Conversion Right to apply (such election, the “FC Remarketing Election”) on and after a Successful Remarketing as set forth herein, but the Corporation shall have no obligation to make such election.

(b) Conversion Procedures.

(i)    Conversion of Separate Shares of Convertible Preferred Stock may be effected by any holder thereof (A) if such holder’s shares of Convertible Preferred Stock are in certificated form, upon the surrender to the Corporation, at the principal office of the Corporation or at the office of the Conversion Agent as may be designated by the Board of Directors, of the certificate or certificates, if any, for such shares of the Convertible Preferred Stock to be converted accompanied by a complete and manually signed Notice of Conversion (as set forth in the form of Convertible Preferred Stock certificate) along with (x) appropriate endorsements and transfer documents as required by the Registrar or Conversion Agent and (y) if required pursuant to Section 3D(9)(c), funds equal to the dividend payable on the next Dividend Payment Date or (B) if such holder’s shares of Convertible Preferred Stock are in the form of Global Preferred Shares, by (x) complying with the procedures of the Depositary in effect at that time and (y) if required pursuant to Section 3D(9)(c), delivering funds equal to the dividend payable on the next Dividend Payment Date. In case such Notice of Conversion shall specify a name or names other than that of such holder, such notice shall be accompanied by payment of all transfer taxes payable upon the issuance of shares of Common Stock in such name or names. Other than such taxes, the Corporation shall pay any documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer taxes that may be payable in respect of any issuance or delivery of shares of Common Stock upon conversion of shares of the Convertible Preferred Stock pursuant hereto. The conversion of the Convertible Preferred Stock will be deemed to have been made as of the close of business on the date (the “Conversion Date”) the foregoing procedures have been complied with. As promptly as practicable after the Conversion Date with respect to any shares of Convertible Preferred Stock, the Corporation shall reflect in its stock records the cancellation of the Convertible Preferred Stock that is being converted and the issuance of such number of validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock to which the holders of such shares of the Convertible Preferred Stock are entitled as a result of the conversion, if any, as of such Conversion Date (in the case any Physical Settlement) or the final day of the Observation Period (in the case of Combination Settlement). If any Common Stock to be issued upon conversion is certificated, promptly after the issuance of the Common Stock certificate (or, if the Convertible Preferred Stock is certificated, promptly after, and in any case no later than (q) two Business Days after the surrender of the certificates representing the shares that are converted (in the case of physical settlement) and (r) two Business Days after the later of the surrender of the certificates representing the shares that are converted and the

final day of the Observation Period (in the case of Combination Settlement)), the Corporation shall deliver or cause to be delivered (1) certificates representing the number of validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable full shares of Common Stock to which the holder of shares of the Convertible Preferred Stock being converted (or such holder’s transferee) shall be entitled, and (2) if the Convertible Preferred Stock is then certificated and less than the full number of shares of the Convertible Preferred Stock evidenced by the surrendered certificate or certificates is being converted, a new certificate or certificates, of like tenor, for the number of shares evidenced by such surrendered certificate or certificates less the number of shares being converted. As of the close of business on the Conversion Date, the rights of the holder of the Convertible Preferred Stock as to the shares being converted shall cease except for the right to receive shares of Common Stock.

(c) Dividend and Other Payments Upon Conversion.

(i)    Upon settlement of a conversion of the Convertible Preferred Stock and subject to the immediately succeeding paragraph, a holder shall not receive cash payment of accumulated and unpaid dividends and the Corporation shall not make any payments in respect of or adjust the Conversion Rate to account for accumulated and unpaid dividends to the Conversion Date except as provided in Section 3D(10)(a).

(ii)    If a holder of shares of Convertible Preferred Stock exercises its conversion rights, such shares shall cease to accumulate dividends as of the end of the day immediately preceding the Conversion Date. Upon conversion of the Convertible Preferred Stock, except for conversion during the period from the close of business on any Record Date corresponding to a Dividend Payment Date to the open of business on such Dividend Payment Date, in which case the holder on such Record Date shall receive the dividends payable on such Dividend Payment Date, accumulated and unpaid dividends on the converted share of Convertible Preferred Stock shall not be cancelled, extinguished or forfeited, but rather shall be deemed to be paid in full to the holder thereof through delivery of any cash and/or Common Stock (together with the cash payment, if any, in lieu of fractional shares) in exchange for the Convertible Preferred Stock being converted pursuant to the provisions hereof. Shares of the Convertible Preferred Stock surrendered for conversion after the close of business on any Record Date for the payment of dividends declared and before the opening of business on the Dividend Payment Date corresponding to that Record Date must be accompanied by a payment to the Corporation in cash of an amount equal to the dividend payable in respect of those shares on such Dividend Payment Date; provided that no such payment shall be required (1) if the Corporation has specified a Redemption Date that is after a Record Date and on or prior to the corresponding Dividend Payment Date or (2) if the Corporation has specified a Fundamental Change Conversion Deadline that is after a Record Date and on or prior to the corresponding Dividend Payment Date.

(d) Settlement Upon Conversion

(i)    Upon conversion of any Convertible Preferred Stock, the Corporation shall pay or deliver, as the case may be, to converting holders, either cash (“Cash Settlement”), shares of Common Stock, together with cash, if applicable, in lieu of any fractional shares of Common Stock (“Physical Settlement”) or a combination of cash and shares of Common Stock, together with cash, if applicable, in lieu of any fractional shares of Common Stock (“Combination Settlement”), at its election, unless the Corporation has previously irrevocably elected a Settlement Method to apply as set forth herein, subject to the requirements set forth in this Section 3D(9).

(ii)    The Corporation shall use the same Settlement Method for all conversions with the same Conversion Date, but the Corporation shall not have any obligation to use the same Settlement Method with respect to conversions occurring on different Conversion Dates, except that the Corporation shall use the same Settlement Method for (A) all conversions following a Redemption Notice to, and including, the related Redemption Date, regardless of the Conversion Date and (B) all conversions in connection with a Fundamental Change. If the Corporation elects a Settlement Method (if the Corporation has not previously irrevocably elected a Settlement Method), it shall inform holders so converting through the Conversion Agent of such Settlement Method it has selected (or, if the Corporation has previously irrevocably elected a Settlement Method, restate such election) no later than the second Business Day immediately following the related Conversion Date; provided that (x) in the case of any conversions of Convertible Preferred Stock following a Redemption Notice to, and including, the Business Day immediately preceding the related Redemption Date, the Corporation shall elect the Settlement Method specified in such Redemption Notice (or, if the Corporation has previously irrevocably elected a Settlement Method, restate such election) and (y) in the case of a conversion in connection with a Fundamental Change, the Corporation shall elect the Settlement Method in the Fundamental Change Company Notice (or, if the Corporation has previously irrevocably elected a Settlement Method, restate such election). If the Corporation elects or is deemed to have elected Combination Settlement, but does not timely notify converting holders of the Specified Dollar Amount per share of Convertible Preferred Stock, such Specified Dollar Amount shall be deemed to be $1,000. If the Corporation does not timely provide notice electing a Settlement Method in respect of any conversion of the Convertible Preferred Stock, it shall be deemed to have elected Combination Settlement and the Specified Dollar Amount per share of Convertible Preferred Stock shall be equal to $1,000.

(iii)    The cash, shares of Common Stock or combination of cash and shares of Common Stock to be paid and/or delivered to converting holders of Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Settlement Amount”) shall be computed as follows:

(A) if the Corporation elects Physical Settlement, the Corporation shall deliver to the converting holder a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the product of (1) the number of shares of Convertible Preferred Stock to be converted, and (2) the applicable Conversion Rate;

(B) if the Corporation elects Cash Settlement, the Corporation shall deliver to the converting holder, in respect of the Liquidation Preference per share of Convertible Preferred Stock, cash in an amount equal to the sum of the Daily Conversion Values for each of the 20 consecutive Trading Days during the related Observation Period; and

(C) if the Corporation elects or is deemed to have elected Combination Settlement, the Corporation shall pay or deliver to the converting holder, in respect of the Liquidation Preference per share of the Convertible Preferred Stock, a Settlement Amount equal to the sum of the Daily Settlement Amounts for each of the 20 consecutive Trading Days during the related Observation Period.

(iv)    If the Corporation elects Physical Settlement in respect of a conversion, the Corporation shall deliver the Settlement Amount to converting holders on the second Trading Day following the Conversion Date, but such holders will be deemed to be the owners of the shares of Common Stock included in the Settlement Amount as of the close of business on the Conversion Date. If the Corporation elects Cash Settlement or if the Corporation elects or is deemed to have elected Combination Settlement, the Corporation shall pay or deliver, as the case may be, the Settlement Amount to converting holders on the second Trading Day following the final Trading Day of the relevant Observation Period and such converting holders will be deemed to be the owners of any of the shares of Common Stock included in the Settlement Amount on the last Trading Day of the relevant Observation Period.

(v)    Without the consent of any holder of the Convertible Preferred Stock, the Corporation may, by notice to the holders through the Conversion Agent, irrevocably elect a Settlement Method (and, if applicable, a Specified Dollar Amount) to apply to any conversion following such notice (unless a Settlement Method has previously been designated) and, subject to the foregoing, specify the effective time of such election (which, for the avoidance of doubt, may be at any time subsequent to the delivery of such notice); provided that the Corporation may make such election (i) solely for conversions in connection with a Fundamental Change, (ii) solely for conversions other than in connection with a Fundamental Change, or (iii) for both conversions in connection with a Fundamental Change and for such other conversions, in which case the Corporation may elect the same or different Settlement Method (and, if applicable, the same or different Specified Dollar Amount) for conversions in connection with a Fundamental Change and for such other conversions. The Corporation’s irrevocable election of a Settlement Method as described herein may be made by the Corporation in its sole discretion.

(e) Fractional Shares. In connection with the conversion of any shares of the Convertible Preferred Stock, no fractions of shares of Common Stock shall be issued, but the Corporation shall pay a cash adjustment in respect of any fractional interest in an amount equal to the fractional interest multiplied by the Daily VWAP of the Common Stock on the Conversion Date (in the case of Physical Settlement) or the Daily VWAP of the Common Stock on the last Trading Day of the relevant Observation Period (in the case of Combination Settlement) rounded to the nearest whole cent.

(f) Total Shares. If more than one share of the Convertible Preferred Stock shall be surrendered for conversion by the same holder at the same time, the number of full shares of Common Stock issuable on conversion of those shares shall be computed on the basis of the total number of shares of the Convertible Preferred Stock so surrendered.

(g) Reservation of Shares; Shares to be Fully Paid; Compliance with Governmental Requirements; Listing of Common Stock. The Corporation shall:

(i)    at all times reserve and keep available, free from preemptive rights, for issuance upon the conversion of shares of the Convertible Preferred Stock such number of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be sufficient to permit the conversion of all Outstanding shares of the Convertible Preferred Stock (assuming for such purposes, that Physical Settlement is applicable to all conversions);

(ii)    prior to the delivery of any securities that the Corporation shall be obligated to deliver upon conversion of the Convertible Preferred Stock in respect of dividends thereon, comply with all applicable federal and state laws and regulations that require action to be taken by the Corporation (including, without limitation, the registration or approval, if required, of any shares of Common Stock to be provided for the purpose of conversion of the Convertible Preferred Stock hereunder or in respect of dividends thereon); and

(iii)    ensure that all shares of Common Stock delivered upon conversion of the Convertible Preferred Stock, if any, and in respect of dividends thereon, if any, will, in each case, upon delivery, be duly and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, free of all liens and charges and not subject to any preemptive rights.

(10). Adjusted Conversion Rate Upon a Fundamental Change.

(a) If a Fundamental Change occurs prior to a Successful Remarketing (or, if the Corporation has made the FC Remarketing Election, regardless of when the Fundamental Change occurs), the Stock Price is less than Conversion Price and a holder of Convertible Preferred Stock elects to exercise its Fundamental Change Conversion Right of Separate Shares of Convertible Preferred Stock in connection with such

Fundamental Change, such conversion shall be at an adjusted Conversion Rate that shall be equal to (i) the Liquidation Preference per share of Convertible Preferred Stock plus all accumulated and unpaid dividends thereon, if any, to, but excluding, such Fundamental Change Settlement Date (unless the Conversion Date for a share of Convertible Preferred Stock occurs after the Record Date for the payment of declared dividends and prior to the related Dividend Payment Date, in which case the Conversion Rate calculation for such share under this clause (a) shall not include accumulated and unpaid dividends that shall be paid to holders of record on such Record Date as set forth in Section 3D(9)(c) above), divided by (ii) the average of the Closing Sale Prices of the Common Stock for the five consecutive Trading Days ending on the second Business Day prior to such Fundamental Change Settlement Date (or, in the case of a Fundamental Change described in clause (a) of the definition of Fundamental Change where the holders of the Common Stock receive only cash in the Fundamental Change, the cash amount paid per share of Common Stock) (such average price or cash amount, as the case may be, the “Fundamental Change Settlement Price”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Conversion Rate exceed 12.5431 shares of Common Stock per share of Convertible Preferred Stock (which is approximately equal to the Liquidation Preference per share of Convertible Preferred Stock divided by 50% of the Initial Price), subject to adjustment in accordance with Section 3D(11) and increase in accordance with Section 3D(12) . A conversion of the Convertible Preferred Stock shall be deemed for these purposes to be “in connection with” such Fundamental Change (regardless of the Stock Price) if the Conversion Date occurs from, and including, the Effective Date of such Fundamental Change to, and including, the Fundamental Change Conversion Deadline.

(b) The Initial Price shall be adjusted as of any date on which the Conversion Rate of the Convertible Preferred Stock is adjusted. The adjusted Initial Price will equal the Initial Price applicable immediately prior to such adjustment multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Conversion Rate immediately prior to the adjustment giving rise to the stock price adjustment and the denominator of which is the Conversion Rate as so adjusted.

(c) To the extent practicable, the Corporation shall notify holders of Convertible Preferred Stock of the anticipated Effective Date of such Fundamental Change (to the extent such anticipated Effective Date is expected to occur prior to a Successful Remarketing unless the Fundamental Change Conversion Right also applies after a Remarketing as described herein) at least 20 Business Days prior to the anticipated Effective Date of such Fundamental Change, but in any event not later than two Business Days following its awareness of the occurrence of a Fundamental Change. In addition, if such Fundamental Change occurs prior to a Successful Remarketing unless the Fundamental Change Conversion Right also applies after a Remarketing as described herein, the Corporation shall send a notice to holders of a Fundamental Change within five Business Days after the Effective Date of such Fundamental Change (the “Fundamental Change Company Notice”). Such Fundamental Change Company Notice shall state:

(i)    the events constituting the Fundamental Change;

(ii)    the Effective Date of the Fundamental Change;

(iii)    the last date on which the holder of Convertible Preferred Stock may exercise the Fundamental Change Conversion Right (such date, the “Fundamental Change Conversion Deadline”), which shall be a date no less than 20 Business Days nor more than 35 Business Days after the Effective Date of such Fundamental Change, provided that if any Purchase Contracts are outstanding at the time the Corporation gives the Fundamental Change Company Notice, such date shall not be less than 10 Business Days following the early settlement date the Corporation specifies for the purchase contracts as described in the Purchase Contract and Pledge Agreement (the period from the Effective Date of a Fundamental Change to, and including, the Fundamental Change Conversion Deadline, the “Fundamental Change Period”);

(iv)    the name and address of the Paying Agent and the Conversion Agent;

(v)    the Conversion Rate and any adjustment to the Conversion Rate that will result from the Fundamental Change, or if the Stock Price is less than the Conversion Price, the formula for determination of the Conversion Rate;

(vi)    the procedures that the holder of Convertible Preferred Stock must follow to exercise the Fundamental Change Conversion Right; and

(vii)    if the Stock Price is less than the Conversion Price, the Fundamental Change Settlement Date; and

(viii)    the Settlement Method for all conversions during the Fundamental Change Period, including, in the case of Combination Settlement, the amount of cash per share of Convertible Preferred Stock the Corporation will pay in settlement of any such conversions, unless the Corporation has previously irrevocably elected a Settlement Method to apply in which case the Fundamental Change Company Notice shall restate such election.

(d) To exercise the Fundamental Change Conversion Right, a holder of the Convertible Preferred Stock must convert its Separate Shares of Convertible Preferred Stock in accordance with Section 3D(9)(a)(i) and Section 3D(9)(b).

(e) If the Stock Price is less than the Conversion Price, then notwithstanding anything to the contrary, but subject to any previous irrevocable election of a Settlement Method by the Corporation as set forth herein, the Corporation can elect, pursuant to Section 3D(9)(d)(ii), to settle conversions in connection with a valid exercise of the Fundamental Change Conversion Right through Cash Settlement, Combination Settlement or Physical Settlement, as follows:

(i)    the Corporation shall settle any conversions during the Fundamental Change Period on the Fundamental Change Settlement Date;

(ii)    if the Corporation has validly elected Physical Settlement in the Fundamental Change Company Notice, the Corporation shall deliver, in respect of each share of the Convertible Preferred Stock, a number of shares of Common Stock (and cash in lieu of any fractional shares) equal to the Conversion Rate (as adjusted pursuant to this Section 3D(10));

(iii)    if the Corporation has validly elected Cash Settlement in the Fundamental Change Company Notice, the Corporation shall deliver, in respect of each share of the Convertible Preferred Stock, an amount of cash equal to the Conversion Rate (as adjusted pursuant to this Section 3D(10)) multiplied by the Fundamental Change Settlement Price; and

(iv)    if the Corporation has validly elected (or is deemed to have elected) Combination Settlement in the Fundamental Change Company Notice, the Corporation shall deliver, in respect of each share of the Convertible Preferred Stock, in addition to the amount of cash per share of Convertible Preferred Stock specified in the Fundamental Change Company Notice, a number of shares of Common Stock (and cash in lieu of any fractional shares) equal to a fraction, the numerator of which is (X) the Conversion Rate (as adjusted pursuant to this Section 3D(10)) multiplied by the Fundamental Change Settlement Price minus (Y) the amount of cash per share specified in the Fundamental Change Company Notice, and the denominator of which is the Fundamental Change Settlement Price.

If the holders of the Common Stock receive only cash in a Reorganization Event, then notwithstanding the foregoing, for all conversions in connection with a Fundamental Change that occur after the effective date of such transaction where the relevant Stock Price is less than the Conversion Price, the consideration due upon conversion of each such share of Convertible Preferred Stock shall be solely cash in an amount equal to the Conversion Rate as modified by this this Section 3D(10), multiplied by the Fundamental Change Settlement Price for such transaction.

(f) The Corporation shall, to the extent applicable, comply with the listing standards of the New York Stock Exchange in connection with the issuance of Common Stock upon any exercise of the Fundamental Change Conversion Right.

(g) Nothing in this Section 3D(10) shall prevent an adjustment to the Conversion Rate pursuant to Section 3D(11) in respect of a Fundamental Change or any increase to the Conversion Rate pursuant to Section 3D(12) in connection with a Successful Remarketing.

(11). Conversion Rate Adjustments. The Conversion Rate shall be adjusted from time to time by the Corporation for any of the following events that occur following November 13, 2019:

(a) If the Corporation issues Common Stock as a dividend or distribution on its Common Stock to all or substantially all holders of its Common Stock, or if the Corporation effects a share split or share combination, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted based on the following formula:

CR₁ = CR₀ × OS₁ / OS₀

where:

CR₀ = the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution or the effective date of such share split or share combination;

CR₁ = the Conversion Rate in effect immediately on and after the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution, or the effective date of such share split or share combination;

OS₀ = the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution, or the effective date of such share split or share combination; and

OS₁ = the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such dividend or distribution, or the effective date of such share split or share combination.

Any adjustment made pursuant to this paragraph (a) shall become effective as of the open of business on (x) the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution or (y) the date on which such split or combination becomes effective, as applicable. If any dividend or distribution described in this paragraph (a) is declared but not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall be readjusted to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared.

(b) If the Corporation distributes to all holders of Common Stock any rights, warrants or options entitling them for a period of not more than 45 days after the date of distribution thereof to subscribe for or purchase Common Stock, in any case at an exercise price per share of Common Stock less than the Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock on the Business Day immediately preceding the time of announcement of such distribution, the Conversion Rate shall be increased based on the following formula:

CR₁ = CR₀ × (OS₀ + X) / (OS₀ + Y)

where:

CR₀ = the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution;

CR₁ = the Conversion Rate in effect immediately on and after the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution;

OS₀ = the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution;

X = the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to such rights, warrants or options; and

Y = the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the quotient of (A) the aggregate price payable to exercise all such rights, warrants or options and (B) the average of the Closing Sale Prices of Common Stock for the 10 consecutive Trading Days ending on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of announcement for the distribution of such rights, warrants or options.

For purposes of this paragraph (b), in determining whether any rights, warrants or options entitle the holders to subscribe for or purchase Common Stock at less than the Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock on the Business Day immediately preceding the time of announcement of such issuance, and in determining the aggregate exercise or conversion price payable for such Common Stock, there shall be taken into account any consideration received by the Corporation for such rights, warrants or options and any amount payable on exercise or conversion thereof, with the value of such consideration, if other than cash, to be determined by the Corporation. Any increase to the Conversion Rate made under this paragraph (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. If any right, warrant or option described in this paragraph (b) is not exercised or converted prior to the expiration of the exercisability or convertibility thereof, the Conversion Rate shall be readjusted to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such right, warrant or option had not been so issued.

(c) (A) If the Corporation distributes shares of Capital Stock of the Corporation, evidences of indebtedness or other assets or property of the Corporation to all holders of Common Stock, excluding:

(i)    dividends, distributions, rights, warrants or options as to which an adjustment to the Conversion Rate was effected in paragraph (a) or (b) above;

(ii)    dividends or distributions paid exclusively in cash; and

(iii)    Spin-Offs described below in this paragraph (c), then the Conversion Rate shall be increased based on the following formula:

CR₁ = CR₀ × SP₀ / (SP₀ – FMV)

where

CR₀ = the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution;

CR₁ = the Conversion Rate in effect immediately on and after the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution;

SP₀ = the Closing Sale Price of Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution; and

FMV = the fair market value (as determined in good faith by the Corporation) of the shares of Capital Stock of the Corporation, evidences of indebtedness, assets or property distributed with respect to each outstanding share of Common Stock, expressed as an amount per share of Common Stock, on the earlier of the Record Date and the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution.

An adjustment to the Conversion Rate made pursuant to the immediately preceding paragraph shall become effective as of the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if “FMV” (as defined in this Section 3D(11)(c)) is equal to or greater than “SP₀” (as defined in this Section 3D(11)(c)), in lieu of the foregoing increase, each holder of Convertible Preferred Stock shall receive, in respect of each share of Convertible Preferred Stock, at the same time and upon the same terms as holders of Common Stock and without having to convert its shares of Convertible Preferred Stock, the amount and kind of Capital Stock, evidences of indebtedness or other assets or property of the Corporation that such holder would have received if such holder owned a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate in effect on the Ex-Dividend Date for the distribution.

If any such distribution consists of rights, warrants or options, and such rights, warrants or options are not exercised or converted prior to the expiration of the exercisability or convertibility thereof, the Conversion Rate shall be readjusted to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such right, warrant or option had not been so issued.

(B) However, if the Corporation distributes to all holders of Common Stock, Capital Stock of the Corporation of any class or series, or similar equity interest, of or relating to a Subsidiary or other business unit (a “Spin-Off”), the Conversion Rate in effect immediately following the 10th Trading Day immediately following, and including, the effective date of the Spin-Off shall be increased based on the following formula:

CR₁ = CR₀ × (FMV₀ + MP₀) / MP₀

where:

CR₀ = the Conversion Rate in effect on the 10th Trading Day immediately following, and including, the effective date of the Spin-Off;

CR₁ = the Conversion Rate immediately after the 10th Trading Day immediately following (and including) the effective date of the Spin-Off;

FMV₀ = the average of the Closing Sale Prices of the capital stock or similar equity interest distributed to holders of Common Stock applicable to one share of Common Stock over the first 10 consecutive Trading Days after and including the effective date of the Spin-Off (the “Valuation Period”); and

MP₀ = the average of the Closing Sale Prices of Common Stock over Valuation Period.

The increase to the Conversion Rate under the immediately preceding paragraph shall occur at the close of business on the last Trading Day of the Valuation Period; provided that (x) in respect of any conversion of Convertible Preferred Stock for which Physical Settlement is applicable, if the relevant Conversion Date occurs during the Valuation Period, the reference to “10” in the preceding paragraph shall be deemed replaced with such lesser number of Trading Days as have elapsed between the Ex-Dividend Date for such Spin-Off and such Conversion Date in determining the Conversion Rate and (y) in respect of any conversion of Convertible Preferred Stock 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, the reference to “10” in the preceding paragraph shall be deemed replaced with such lesser number of Trading Days as have elapsed between the Ex-Dividend Date for such spin-off and such Trading Day in determining the Conversion Rate as of such Trading Day. In addition, if the ex-dividend date for such Spin-Off is after the 10th Trading Day immediately preceding, and including, the end of any Observation Period in respect of a conversion of Convertible Preferred Stock, references to “10” or “10th” in the preceding paragraph and this paragraph shall be deemed to be replaced, solely in respect of that conversion, with such lesser number of Trading Days as have elapsed from, and including, the Ex-Dividend Date for such Spin-Off to, and including, the last Trading Day of such Observation Period.

If any such dividend or distribution described in this paragraph (c) is declared but not paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall be readjusted to be the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared.

(d) If any cash dividend or distribution is made to all or substantially all holders of Common Stock, other than a regular, quarterly cash dividend that does not exceed $0.69 per share (the “Initial Dividend Threshold”), the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted based on the following formula:

CR₁ = CR₀ × (SP₀ – IDT) / (SP₀ – C)

where,

CR₀ = the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the Ex-Dividend Date for such cash dividend or distribution;

CR₁ = the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the Ex-Dividend Date for such cash dividend or distribution;

SP₀ = the Closing Sale Price of Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date for such cash dividend or distribution;

C = the amount in cash per share the Corporation distributes to holders of Common Stock; and

IDT = the Initial Dividend Threshold; provided that if the dividend or distribution is not a regular quarterly cash dividend, the Initial Dividend Threshold shall be deemed to be zero.

Any increase to the Conversion Rate made pursuant to this paragraph (d) shall become effective as of the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution. If any such dividend or distribution is not so paid or made, the new Conversion Rate shall be readjusted to the Conversion Rate that would be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if “C” (as in this Section 3D(11)(d)) is equal to or greater than “SP₀” (as defined in this Section 3D(11)(d)), in lieu of the foregoing increase, each holder of Convertible Preferred Stock shall receive, for each share of Convertible Preferred Stock, at the same time and upon the same terms as holders of shares of Common Stock and without having to convert its shares of Convertible Preferred Stock, the amount of cash that such holder would have received if such holder owned a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate on the Ex-Dividend Date for such cash dividend or distribution.

The Initial Dividend Threshold shall be subject to adjustment in a manner inversely proportional to adjustments to the Conversion Rate; provided that no adjustment shall be made to the Initial Dividend Threshold for any adjustment made to the Conversion Rate under this Section 3D(11)(d).

(e) If the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries make a payment in respect of a tender offer or exchange offer for the Common Stock to the extent that the cash and value of any other consideration included in the payment per share of the Common Stock exceeds the Closing Sale Price of Common Stock on 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:

CR₁ = CR₀ × (AC + (SP₁ × OS₁)) / (SP₁ × OS₀)

where:

CR₀ = the Conversion Rate in effect on the Trading Day on which such tender or exchange offer expires;

CR₁ = the Conversion Rate in effect on the Trading Day immediately following the date such tender or exchange offer expires;

AC = the aggregate value of all cash and any other consideration (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors) paid or payable for the Common Stock purchased in such tender or exchange offer;

OS₀ = the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the date such tender or exchange offer expires (prior to giving effect to the purchase or exchange of shares of Common Stock pursuant to such tender or exchange offer);

OS₁ = the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after the date such tender or exchange offer expires (after giving effect to the purchase or exchange of shares of Common Stock pursuant to such tender or exchange offer); and

SP₁ = the Closing Sale Price of Common Stock on the Trading Day next succeeding the date such tender or exchange offer expires.

If the application of the foregoing formula would result in a decrease in the Conversion Rate, no adjustment to the Conversion Rate shall be made.

Any adjustment to the Conversion Rate made pursuant to this Section 3D(11)(e) shall become effective at the close of business on the Trading Day immediately following the date such tender offer or exchange offer expires. If the Corporation or one of its Subsidiaries is obligated to purchase Common Stock pursuant to any such tender or exchange offer but is permanently prevented by applicable law from effecting any such purchase or all such purchases are rescinded, the Conversion Rate shall be readjusted to be the Conversion Rate that would be in effect if such tender or exchange offer had not been made.

(f) The Corporation may make such increases to the Conversion Rate in addition to those required by this Section 3D(11) as it considers to be advisable to avoid or diminish any income tax to holders of Common Stock resulting from any dividend or distribution of stock (or rights to purchase Common Stock) or from any event treated as such for income tax purposes. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Corporation from time to time may increase the Conversion Rate by any amount for any period of time if the period is at least 20 days and the increase is irrevocable during the period and the Corporation determines that such increase would be in its best interests. Whenever the Conversion Rate is increased pursuant to the preceding sentence, the Corporation shall mail to each holder of the Convertible Preferred Stock at the address of such holder as it appears in the stock register a notice of the reduction 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.

(i)    All required calculations shall be made to the nearest cent or 1/10,000th of a share, as the case may be. The Corporation shall not be required to make an adjustment to the Conversion Rate unless the adjustment would require a change of at least 1% in the Conversion Rate. However, the Corporation shall carry forward any adjustments that are less than 1% of the Conversion Rate and make such carried-forward adjustments (x) when all such carried-forward adjustments aggregate to a change of at least 1% in the Conversion Rate and (y) regardless of whether the aggregate adjustment is less than 1% (A) on the Effective Date for any Fundamental Change, (B) on the Conversion Date in respect of any shares of Convertible Preferred Stock for

which Physical Settlement applies and (iii) on each Trading Day of any Observation Period in respect of any conversion of Convertible Preferred Stock for which Cash Settlement or Combination Settlement applies.

(ii)    No adjustment to the Conversion Rate shall be made if holders of the Convertible Preferred Stock, as a result of holding the Convertible Preferred Stock and without conversion thereof, are entitled to participate at the same time as the holders of Common Stock participate in any of the transactions described above as if such holders of the Convertible Preferred Stock held a number shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate, multiplied by the number of shares of Convertible Preferred Stock held by such holders.

(iii)    Whenever the Conversion Rate is adjusted as herein provided, the Corporation shall promptly file with the Conversion Agent an Officer’s 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 Conversion Agent shall have received such Officer’s certificate, the Conversion Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any adjustment of the Conversion Rate and may assume that the last Conversion Rate of which it has knowledge is still in effect. Promptly after delivery of such certificate, the Corporation 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 mail such notice of such adjustment of the Conversion Rate to each holder of Convertible Preferred Stock at its last address appearing in the stock register within twenty (20) days after execution thereof. Failure to deliver such notice shall not affect the legality or validity of any such adjustment.

(iv)    If a Conversion Rate adjustment becomes effective on the Ex-Dividend Date for any dividend or distribution and a holder that has converted its shares of the Convertible Preferred Stock on or after such Ex-Dividend Date and on or prior to the related Record Date would be treated as the record holder of Common Stock as of the related Conversion Date based on an adjusted Conversion Rate for such Ex-Dividend Date, then, notwithstanding the foregoing Conversion Rate adjustment provisions, adjustments relating to such Ex-Dividend Date shall not be made for such converting holder. Instead, such holder shall be treated as if such holder were the record owner of Common Stock on an unadjusted basis and participate in the related dividend, distribution or other event giving rise to such adjustment.

(v)    For purposes of this Section 3D(11), the number of shares of Common Stock at any time outstanding shall not include shares held in the treasury of the Corporation, unless such treasury shares participate in any distribution or dividend that requires an adjustment pursuant to this Section 3D(11), but shall include shares issuable in respect of scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of shares of Common Stock.

(g) Whenever any provision of this Section 3D(11) requires the Corporation to calculate the Closing Sale Prices, the Daily VWAPs, the Daily Conversion Values or the Daily Settlement Amounts over a span of multiple days (including any Observation Period, the Five-Day Average Price and the Stock Price and Fundamental Change Settlement Price (if applicable)), the Corporation 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 of the event occurs, at any time during the period when the Closing Sale Prices, the Daily VWAPs, the Daily Conversion Values or the Daily Settlement Amounts are to be calculated.

(h) The Conversion Rate shall not be required to be adjusted except as specifically set forth in this Section 3D. Without limiting the foregoing, the Conversion Rate shall not be required to be adjusted:

(i)    upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock pursuant to any present or future plan providing for the reinvestment of dividends or interest payable on securities of the Corporation and the investment of additional optional amounts in shares of Common Stock under any plan;

(ii)    upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock or options or rights to purchase those shares pursuant to any present or future employee, director, trustee or consultant benefit plan, employee agreement or arrangement or program of the Corporation;

(iii)    upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock pursuant to any option, warrant, right, or exercisable, exchangeable or convertible security outstanding as of the date the Convertible Preferred Stock was first issued;

(iv)    solely for a change in the par value of the Common Stock;

(v)    for accumulated and unpaid dividends, if any; or

(vi)    upon the issuance of limited partnership units by the Corporation and the issuance of Common Stock or the payment of cash upon redemption thereof.

(12). Remarketing

(a) Remarketing. Holders of Separate Shares of Convertible Preferred Stock shall have the rights in respect of any Remarketing as set forth in the Purchase Contract and Pledge Agreement.

(b) Increased Rates, Modified Redemption Date and Election of Fundamental Change to Apply

(i)    In connection with each Remarketing, the Board of Directors shall determine any Increased Rate and/or Modified Redemption Date after consultation with the Remarketing Agent.

(ii)    In the event of a Successful Remarketing, (A) the Dividend Rate may be increased to the applicable Increased Rate, (B) the Conversion Rate may be increased to the applicable Increased Rate, (C) a Modified Redemption Date may be established and/or (D) the Corporation may make the FC Remarketing Election, in each case, on the Remarketing Settlement Date, as determined by the Board of Directors after consultation with the Remarketing Agent(s), and the Corporation shall (i) notify each of the Transfer Agent and the Conversion Agent by an Officer’s certificate delivered to the Transfer Agent and the Conversion Agent and (ii) request the Depositary to notify its Depositary Participants holding shares of Convertible Preferred Stock, in each case, of the Increased Rate(s), Modified Redemption Date and any other modified terms established for the Convertible Preferred Stock (including whether the Corporation has made the FC Remarketing Election) during the Remarketing on the Business Day following the date of the Successful Remarketing. For the avoidance of doubt, neither the Dividend Rate nor the Conversion Rate can be decreased in connection with a Remarketing, and the First Redemption Date cannot be made to be earlier than December 22, 2022 in connection with a Remarketing. Any modified terms of the Convertible Preferred Stock in connection with a Remarketing shall apply to every share of Convertible Preferred Stock, whether or not remarketed.

(iii)    In the event of an Unsuccessful Final Remarketing, an Unsuccessful Optional Remarketing, or if no Applicable Ownership Interests in Convertible Preferred Stock are included in Corporate Units and none of the holders of the Separate Shares of Convertible Preferred Stock elect to have their shares of Convertible Preferred Stock remarketed in any Remarketing, the Dividend Rate, Increased Rate and First Redemption Date will not be modified.

(iv)    If there is an Unsuccessful Remarketing, the Corporation shall cause a notice of the Unsuccessful Remarketing to be published before 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Business Day following the Applicable Remarketing Period. This notice shall be validly published by making a timely release to any appropriate news agency, including, without limitation, Bloomberg Business News or the Dow Jones News Service.

(13). [Reserved]

(14). Effect of Recapitalizations, Reclassifications and Changes of Common Stock.

(a) The following events are defined as “Reorganization Events”:

(i)    any recapitalization, reclassification or change of the Common Stock (other than changes resulting from a subdivision or combination);

(ii)    any consolidation, merger or combination involving the Corporation;

(iii)    any sale, lease or other transfer to another Person of the consolidated assets of the Corporation and its Subsidiaries substantially as an entirety; or

(iv)    any statutory exchange of the Common Stock;

in each case as a result of which the Common Stock would be converted into, or exchanged for, stock, other securities, other property or assets (including Cash or any combination thereof) (“Exchange Property”).

(b) At and after the effective time of a Reorganization Event, the Conversion Rate shall be determined by reference to the value of an Exchange Property Unit, and the Corporation shall deliver, upon settlement of any conversion of Convertible Preferred Stock, a number of Exchange Property Units equal to the number of shares of Common Stock that the Corporation would otherwise be required to deliver. However, at and after the effective time of the Reorganization Event, (i) the Corporation shall, subject to its ability to irrevocably elect a Settlement Method, continue to have the right to determine the form of consideration to be paid or delivered, as the case may be, upon conversion of the Convertible Preferred Stock in accordance with Section 3D(9)(d) and (ii)(x) any amount payable in cash upon conversion of the Convertible Preferred Stock in accordance with Section 3D(9)(d) shall continue to be payable in cash, (y) any shares of Common Stock that the Corporation would have been required to deliver upon conversion of Convertible Preferred Stock in accordance with Section 3D(9)(d) shall instead be deliverable in the amount and type of Exchange Property that a holder of that number of shares of Common Stock would have been entitled to receive in such transaction and (z) the Daily VWAP and Fundamental Change Settlement Price shall be calculated based on the value of an Exchange Property Unit that a holder of one share of Common Stock would have received in such transaction.

(c) In the event holders of Common Stock (other than any Constituent Person or Affiliate thereof) have the opportunity to elect the form of consideration to be received in such transaction, the Exchange Property Unit that holders of the Convertible Preferred Stock are entitled to receive shall be deemed to be the weighted average of the types and amounts of consideration received by the holders of Common Stock. The Corporation shall notify holders of the weighted average as soon as practicable after such determination is made.

(d) If the holders in a Reorganization Event receive only cash in such transaction, then notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary for all conversions that occur after the effective date of such transaction (other than conversions in connection with a Fundamental Change prior to a Successful Remarketing (or, if the Corporation has made the FC Remarketing Election, regardless of when the Fundamental Change occurs) where the relevant Stock Price is less than the Conversion Price) (i) the consideration due upon conversion of each share of Convertible Preferred Stock shall be solely cash in an amount equal to the Conversion Rate in effect on the Conversion Date, multiplied by the price paid per share of Common Stock in such transaction and (ii) the Corporation shall satisfy its conversion obligation by paying cash to converting holders on the second Scheduled Trading Day immediately following the Conversion Date.

(e) In connection with any Reorganization Event, the Corporation shall amend this Section 3D(1) to provide for anti-dilution and other adjustments that are as nearly equivalent as possible to the adjustments described under Section 3D(11) above, (2) in the case of any transaction that results in the common equity of any entity other than the Corporation (or, for the avoidance of doubt, the Corporation’s successor in such transaction) being included as Exchange Property, (x) by replacing references to the “Corporation” (and similar references) in the definitions of “Fundamental Change” with references to that other entity and (y) by causing the Dividend Blocker Provisions to apply to that other entity, with its equity securities being deemed stock ranking junior to the Convertible Preferred Stock for this purpose and (3) to include such additional provisions to protect the interests of the holders of Convertible Preferred Stock as the Board of Directors reasonably considers necessary by reason of the foregoing. The Corporation shall not become party to any Reorganization Event unless its terms are consistent with the foregoing.

(f) In connection with any adjustment to the Conversion Rate pursuant to this Section 3D(14), the Corporation shall also adjust the Initial Dividend Threshold based on the number of shares of Common Stock comprising the Exchange Property and (if applicable) the value of any non-stock consideration comprising the Exchange Property. If the Exchange Property is composed solely of non-stock consideration, the Initial Dividend Threshold shall be zero.

(g) The Corporation shall cause notice of the application of this Section 3D(14) to be delivered to each holder of the Convertible Preferred Stock at the address of such holder as it appears in the stock register within twenty (20) days after the occurrence of any of the events specified in Section 3D(14)(a) and shall publish such information on its website. Failure to deliver such notice shall not affect the legality or validity of any conversion right pursuant to this Section 3D(14).

(h) The above provisions of this Section 3D(14) shall similarly apply to successive Reorganization Events, and the provisions of Section 3D(11) shall apply to any shares of Capital Stock received by the holders of Common Stock in any such Reorganization Event; provided that if this Section 3D(14) applies to any event or occurrence, Section 3D(11) shall not apply to such event or occurrence.

(15). Rights Issued in Respect of Common Stock Issued Upon Conversion. If the Corporation has in effect a rights plan while any shares of Convertible Preferred Stock remain outstanding, holders of Convertible Preferred Stock shall receive, upon a conversion of Convertible Preferred Stock, in addition to shares of Common Stock, rights under the Corporation’s shareholder rights agreement unless, prior to such conversion, the rights have expired, terminated or been redeemed or unless the rights have separated from the Common Stock. If the rights provided for in the shareholder rights plan have separated from the Common Stock in accordance with the provisions of the applicable shareholder rights agreement so that holders of Convertible Preferred Stock would not be entitled to receive any rights in respect of the Common Stock, if any, that the Corporation is required to deliver upon conversion of Convertible Preferred Stock, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted at the time of separation as if the Corporation had distributed to all holders of the Common Stock, Capital Stock of the Corporation (other than Common Stock), evidences of indebtedness, the Corporation’s assets or properties pursuant to Section 3D(11)(c) above, subject to readjustment upon the subsequent expiration, termination or redemption of the rights.

(16). Voting Rights.

(a) The holders of record of shares of the Convertible Preferred Stock shall not be entitled to any voting rights except as hereinafter provided in this Section 3D(16), as otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation or as otherwise provided by law.

(b) The affirmative vote of holders of at least two-thirds of the Outstanding shares of the Convertible Preferred Stock and all other class or series of Parity Stock upon which like voting rights have been conferred, voting as a single class, in person or by proxy, at an annual meeting of the Corporation’s stockholders or at a special meeting called for the purpose, or by written consent in lieu of such a meeting, shall be required for the following events:

(i)    to authorize, create or issue, or increase the number of authorized or issued shares of any class or series of Senior Stock, or reclassify any Capital Stock of the Corporation into any such shares of Senior Stock, or create, authorize or issue any obligation or security convertible into or evidencing the right to purchase any shares of Senior Stock;

(ii)    to alter, repeal or amend any provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation so as to materially and adversely affect any right, preference, privilege or voting power of the Convertible Preferred Stock; and

(iii)    to consummate a binding share exchange or reclassification involving the shares of Convertible Preferred Stock or a merger or consolidation of the Corporation with another entity, unless either (A) the shares of Convertible Preferred Stock remain outstanding and have rights, preferences, privileges and voting powers, taken as a whole, that are no less favorable to the holders thereof than the rights, preferences, privileges and voting powers of the Convertible Preferred Stock immediately prior to such consummation, taken as a whole, or (B) in the case of any such merger or consolidation with respect to which the

Corporation is not the surviving or resulting entity, the shares of Convertible Preferred Stock are converted into or exchanged for preference securities of the surviving or resulting entity or its ultimate parent, such surviving or resulting entity or ultimate parent is organized under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia and treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and such preference securities have rights, preferences, privileges and voting powers, taken as a whole, that are no less favorable to the holders thereof than the rights, preferences, privileges and voting powers of the Convertible Preferred Stock immediately prior to such consummation, taken as a whole;

provided that the creation and issuance, or an increase in the authorized or issued amount, whether pursuant to pre-emptive or similar rights or otherwise, of any series of preferred stock (including the Convertible Preferred Stock) constituting Junior Stock or Parity Stock, shall not be deemed to adversely affect the rights, preferences, privileges or voting powers of the Convertible Preferred Stock, and shall not require the affirmative vote or consent of the holders of the Convertible Preferred Stock.

If any amendment, alteration, repeal, share exchange, reclassification, merger or consolidation specified above would adversely affect one or more but not all series of Parity Stock (including the Convertible Preferred Stock for this purpose), then only the one or more series of Parity Stock adversely affected and entitled to vote, rather than all series of Parity Stock, shall vote as a class.

(c) So long as such action does not adversely affect the special rights, preferences, privileges or voting powers of the Convertible Preferred Stock, and limitations and restrictions thereof, the Corporation may amend, alter, supplement, or repeal any terms of the Convertible Preferred Stock without the consent of the holders of the Convertible Preferred Stock, for the following purposes:

(i)    to cure any ambiguity, defect, inconsistency or mistake, or to correct or supplement any provision contained in this Section 3D establishing the terms of the Convertible Preferred Stock that may be defective or inconsistent with any other provision contained in in this Section 3D;

(ii)    to make such other provisions in regard to matters or questions relating to the Convertible Preferred Stock that is not inconsistent with the provisions of this Section 3D establishing the terms of the Convertible Preferred Stock, including, but not limited to, the filing with the Secretary of the State a Certificate of Amendment to reflect the amended terms (if any) of the Convertible Preferred Stock in connection with a Successful Remarketing; or

(iii)    to waive any of the Corporation’s rights with respect thereto;

provided that any such amendment, alteration, supplement or repeal of any terms of the Convertible Preferred Stock effected in order to (1) conform the terms of the Convertible Preferred Stock to the description contained in the preliminary prospectus supplement

dated November 7, 2019 (as supplemented by the related term sheet dated November 7, 2019) relating to the Units, (2) implement the changes to the Convertible Preferred Stock as set forth in Section 3D(12)(a) above in connection with a Successful Remarketing, (3) change the earliest Redemption Date for the Convertible Preferred Stock in connection with a Successful Remarketing, (4) irrevocably elect a Settlement Method or Dividend Payment Method to apply, or (5) make the FC Remarketing Election (as well as any increase to any related table of additional shares of Common Stock to be added to the Conversion Rate, if any), in each case, shall be deemed not to adversely affect the special rights, preferences, privileges and voting powers, and limitations and restrictions thereof, of the Convertible Preferred Stock.

Holders of Convertible Preferred Stock shall not be entitled to vote with respect to (A) any increase in the number of the authorized shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock, (B) any increase in the number of authorized shares of Convertible Preferred Stock, or (C) the creation, issuance or increase in the number of authorized shares of any Junior Stock or Parity Stock, except as set forth above. Nor shall holders of Convertible Preferred Stock have any voting right with respect to, and the consent of the holders of any Convertible Preferred Stock is not required for, any corporate action, including any merger or consolidation involving the Corporation or a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Corporation, regardless of the effect that such merger, consolidation or sale may have upon the powers, preferences, voting power or other rights or privileges of Convertible Preferred Stock, except as set forth above. No holder of Common Stock or any other class or series of stock shall be entitled to vote with respect to any changes to the terms of the Convertible Preferred Stock or the adoption of any Certificate of Amendment with respect thereto in connection with a Successful Remarketing as set forth in Section 3D(12)(a).

In addition, the voting power as provided above shall not apply, if, at or prior to the time when the act with respect to which the vote would otherwise be required would occur, the Corporation has redeemed upon proper procedures all outstanding shares of the Convertible Preferred Stock.

(d) If at any time after a Dividend Increase Remarketing, dividends on any shares of Convertible Preferred Stock have not been declared and paid in full for six or more Dividend Periods from an after such Successful Remarketing, whether or not consecutive, then the holders of shares of Convertible Preferred Stock (voting together as a class with all other series of Parity Stock upon which like voting rights have been conferred and are exercisable (and with voting rights allocated pro rata based on the liquidation preference of the Convertible Preferred Stock and each such other class or series of preferred stock)) will be entitled to elect two additional directors of the Corporation (each, a “Convertible Preferred Stock Director”) at the next annual meeting of stockholders (or at a special meeting of the Corporation’s stockholders called for such purpose, whichever is earlier) and each subsequent meeting until all dividends accumulated on the Convertible Preferred Stock and all other series of Parity Stock upon which like voting rights have been conferred and are exercisable have been fully paid or a sum sufficient for payment is set aside for payment. In such a case, the number of directors serving on the Board of Directors shall be increased by two. The term of office

of such Convertible Preferred Stock Directors will terminate immediately upon the termination of the right of the holders of Convertible Preferred Stock and such Parity Stock to vote for directors. Each holder of shares of the Convertible Preferred Stock will have one vote for each share of Convertible Preferred Stock held. At any time after voting power to elect directors shall have become vested and be continuing in the holders of the Convertible Preferred Stock pursuant to this Section 3D(16)(d), or if a vacancy shall exist in the office of any Convertible Preferred Stock Director, the Board of Directors may, and upon written request of the holders of record of at least 10% of the Outstanding Convertible Preferred Stock and all other series of Parity Stock upon which like voting rights have been conferred and are exercisable addressed to the Chairman of the Board of the Corporation shall, call a special meeting of the holders of the Convertible Preferred Stock and all other series of Parity Stock upon which like voting rights have been conferred and are exercisable (voting together as a class with all other series of Parity Stock upon which like voting rights have been conferred and are exercisable) for the purpose of electing the Convertible Preferred Stock Director(s) that such holders are entitled to elect; provided that, if such written request is received within 90 days before the date fixed for the next annual or special meeting of stockholders, the Board of Directors may disregard the request and the Convertible Preferred Stock Directors shall be elected at such annual or special meeting of stockholders. At any meeting held for the purpose of electing a Convertible Preferred Stock Director, the presence in person or by proxy of the holders of at least a majority of the Outstanding Convertible Preferred Stock shall be required to constitute a quorum of such Convertible Preferred Stock and the Convertible Preferred Stock Directors shall be elected by a plurality of the votes cast. Each Convertible Preferred Stock Director shall be entitled to one vote on any matter before the Board of Directors. The Convertible Preferred Stock Directors shall agree, prior to their election to office, to resign upon any termination of the right of the holders of Convertible Preferred Stock and Parity Stock having like voting rights to vote as a class for Convertible Preferred Stock Directors as herein provided, and upon such termination, the Convertible Preferred Stock Directors then in office shall forthwith resign and the number of directors serving on Board of Directors will be reduced accordingly.

(17). Transfer Agent and Registrar. The duly appointed transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”) and Registrar (the “Registrar”) for the Convertible Preferred Stock shall be Computershare Trust Company, N.A. The Corporation may, in its sole discretion, remove the Transfer Agent; provided that the Corporation shall appoint a successor transfer agent who shall accept such appointment prior to the effectiveness of such removal.

(18). Currency. All shares of Convertible Preferred Stock shall be denominated in U.S. currency, and all payments and distributions thereon or with respect thereto shall be made in U.S. currency. All references herein to “$”or “dollars” refer to U.S. currency.

(19). Form.

(a) Shares of the Convertible Preferred Stock shall be issued in fully registered, certificated form and may be issued in the form of one or more permanent global shares of Convertible Preferred Stock registered in the name of the Depositary or

its nominee (each, a “Global Preferred Share”). Convertible Preferred Stock represented by the Global Preferred Shares will be exchangeable for other certificates evidencing shares of Convertible Preferred Stock only (x) if the Depositary (A) has notified the Corporation that it is unwilling or unable to continue as depository for the Global Preferred Shares or (B) has ceased to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act and, in either case, a successor depository is not appointed by the Corporation within 90 days after such notice or cessation or (y) if the Corporation determines at any time that the shares of Convertible Preferred Stock shall no longer be represented by Global Preferred Shares, in which case it shall inform the Depositary of such determination. In any such case, such new certificates evidencing shares of Convertible Preferred Stock shall be registered in the name or names of the Person or Person specified by the Depositary in a written instrument to the Registrar. Except as provided above, owners of beneficial interest in a Global Preferred Share will not be entitled to receive certificates evidencing shares of Convertible Preferred Stock. Unless and until such Global Preferred Share is exchanged for other certificates evidencing shares of Convertible Preferred Stock, Global Preferred Shares may be transferred, in whole but not in part, and any payments on the Convertible Preferred Stock shall be made, only to the Depositary or a nominee of the Depositary, or to a successor Depositary selected or approved by the Corporation or to a nominee of such successor Depositary.

(b) To the extent permitted by applicable procedures of the Depositary, certificates evidencing shares of the Convertible Preferred Stock may be issued to represent fractional shares with a Liquidation Preference of $100 and integral multiples of $100 in excess thereof.

The Global Preferred Shares may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange rules, agreements to which the Corporation is subject, if any, or usage (provided that any such notation, legend or endorsement is in a form acceptable to the Corporation). The Global Preferred Shares shall be deposited with the Registrar, at its New York office, as custodian for the Depositary, and registered in the name of the Depositary or a nominee of the Depositary, duly executed by the Corporation and countersigned and registered by the Registrar as hereinafter provided. The aggregate number of shares represented by the Global Preferred Shares, or any one Global Preferred Share, may from time to time be increased or decreased by adjustments made on the records of the Registrar and the Depositary or its nominee as hereinafter provided. At such time as all interests in a Global Preferred Share have been converted, canceled, repurchased or transferred, such Global Preferred Share shall be, upon receipt thereof, canceled by the Corporation in accordance with standing procedures and existing instructions between the Depositary and the Corporation.

This Section 3D(19) shall apply only to a Global Preferred Share deposited with or on behalf of the Depositary. The Corporation shall execute and the Registrar shall, in accordance with this Section 3D(19), countersign and deliver one or more Global Preferred Shares in accordance with the terms hereof that (i) shall be registered in the name of Cede & Co. or other nominee of the Depositary and (ii) shall be delivered by the Registrar to Cede & Co. or pursuant to instructions received from Cede & Co. or held by
