(b)    the consummation of (i) any recapitalization, reclassification or change of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (other than a change in par value, or from par value to no par value, or from no par value to par value, or as a result of a split, subdivision or combination) as a result of which the Common Stock would be converted into, or exchanged for, stock, other securities, other property or assets; (ii) any share exchange, exchange offer, tender offer, consolidation or merger of the Company pursuant to which the Common Stock will be converted into cash, securities or other property or (iii) any sale, lease or other transfer in one transaction or a series of transactions of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, to any Person other than one or more of the Company’s Subsidiaries (any such exchange, offer, consolidation, merger, transaction or series of transactions being referred to herein as an “event”); provided, however, that (x) any such event where the holders of the Company’s Common Equity immediately prior to such event, own, directly or indirectly, more than 50% of the voting power of all classes of Common Equity of the continuing or surviving person or transferee or the parent thereof immediately after such event with such holders’ proportional voting power immediately after such event being in substantially the same proportions as their respective voting power before such event shall not be a Fundamental Change and (y) any merger solely for the purpose of changing the Company’s jurisdiction of incorporation and resulting in a reclassification, conversion or exchange of outstanding shares of Common Stock solely into common shares of the surviving entity and where the holders’ proportional voting power immediately after such event is in substantially the same proportions as their respective voting power before such event shall not be a Fundamental Change;
(c)    the stockholders of the Company approve any plan or proposal for the liquidation or dissolution of the Company; or
(d)    the Common Stock (or any common stock then underlying the Notes) ceases to be listed or admitted to trading, as the case may be, on (or the relevant exchange announces that, pursuant to the rules of such exchange, such Common Stock (or common stock, as the case may be) will cease to be listed on) The NASDAQ Global Select Market for any reason and is not (or will not be) immediately re-listed, (and fails (or will fail) to continue to be listed) on any of the New York Stock Exchange, The NASDAQ Global Select Market, The NASDAQ Global Market, the Frankfurt Stock Exchange (Prime Standard), the London Stock Exchange (Main Market) or Euronext (Paris or Amsterdam);
provided, however, that (i) no transaction or event described in clause (a) or (b) above will constitute a Fundamental Change if at least 90% of the consideration, excluding cash payments for fractional shares and cash payments made in respect of dissenters’ appraisal rights, if any, in the transaction or event that would otherwise have constituted the Fundamental Change consists of Publicly Traded Securities, and as a result of the event, the Notes become convertible (pursuant to the terms of this Indenture) into cash by reference to such consideration, excluding cash payments for fractional shares (subject to the provisions of Section 12.02(a)); and (ii) if any preference shares issued to the Foundation are later redeemed upon order of a court, or at the initiative of the Foundation or the Company, and the circumstances which would have constituted a Fundamental Change under (a) above but for the exercise of the Foundation’s option continue to exist, then a Fundamental Change shall be deemed to have occurred as of the date of the redemption of such preference shares.
For purposes of this definition, whether a “person” is a “beneficial owner” shall be determined in accordance with Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act (except that in calculating the beneficial ownership of any particular “person” (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act), such “person” shall be deemed to have beneficial ownership of all securities that such “person” has the right to acquire by conversion or exercise of other securities, whether such right is currently exercisable or is exercisable only after the passage of time ) and “person” includes any syndicate or group that would be deemed to be a “person” under Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act.
After any transaction in which the Common Stock is replaced by the securities of another entity pursuant to Section 12.05, should one occur, following completion of any related Make-Whole Fundamental Change Period and any related Fundamental Change Repurchase Date, references to the Company in the definition of “Fundamental Change” above will apply to such other entity instead. For the avoidance of doubt, no calculation or determination in relation to this definition shall be a duty or obligation of the Trustee or any Agent.
Fundamental Change Company Notice” shall have the meaning specified in Section 13.01(b).
Fundamental Change Expiration Time” shall have the meaning specified in Section 13.01(b)(v).
Fundamental Change Repurchase Date” shall have the meaning specified in Section 13.01(a).

Indirect Participant” means a Person who holds a beneficial interest in a Global Note through a Participant.

Interest Record Date,” with respect to any Interest Payment Date, shall mean, with respect to any Global Notes, March 18 or September 18 (whether or not such day is a Business Day) immediately preceding the relevant Interest Payment Date, respectively, and, with respect to any definitive Notes, March 4 or September 4 (whether or not such day is a Business Day) immediately preceding the relevant Interest Payment Date, respectively.
Last Reported Sale Price” of the Common Stock on any date means the closing sale price per share (or if no closing sale price is reported, the arithmetic average of the last bid and last ask prices or, if more than one in either case, the arithmetic average of the arithmetic average of the last bid and the arithmetic average of the last ask prices, as determined by the Calculation Agent) on that date as reported in composite transactions on the Relevant Exchange.

Any Global Note may be endorsed with or have incorporated in the text thereof such legends or recitals or changes not inconsistent with the provisions of this Indenture as may be required by the Common Depositary, any regulatory body or as may be required to comply with any applicable law or any regulation thereunder or with the rules and regulations of any securities exchange or automated quotation system upon which the Notes may be listed or traded or designated for issuance or to conform with any usage with respect thereto, or to indicate any special limitations or restrictions to which any particular Notes are subject.
Any of the Notes may have such letters, numbers or other marks of identification and such notations, legends or endorsements as the Officers executing the same may approve (execution thereof to be conclusive evidence of such approval) and as are not inconsistent with the provisions of this Indenture, or as may be required to comply with any law or with any rule or regulation made pursuant thereto or with any rule or regulation of any relevant exchange or automated quotation system on which the Notes may be listed or designated for issuance, or to conform to usage or to indicate any special limitations or restrictions to which any particular Notes are subject.

Any endorsement of a Global Note to reflect the amount of any increase or decrease in the amount of outstanding Notes represented thereby shall be made by the Note Registrar in such manner and upon instructions given by the holder of such Notes in accordance with this Indenture.

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 an Authentication Agent, 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 proper Officers of the Company, although at the date of the execution of this Indenture any such person was not such an Officer.

The Company may change any Paying Agents, Conversion Agents, Note Registrars or Transfer Agents without prior notice to the Noteholders; provided, however, that no such removal shall become effective until acceptance of an appointment by a successor as evidenced by an appropriate agreement entered into by the Company and such successor Paying Agent, Conversion Agent, Note Registrar or Transfer Agent, as the case may be, and delivered to the Trustee.

No service charge shall be charged to the Noteholder for any exchange or registration of transfer of Notes, but the Company or the Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, assessments or other governmental charges that may be imposed in connection therewith as a result of the name of the holder of the new Notes issued upon such exchange or registration of transfer of Notes being different from the name of the holder of the old Notes presented or surrendered for such exchange or registration of transfer.

Upon satisfaction of all of the requirements for transfer or exchange of beneficial interests in Global Notes contained in this Indenture, the Transfer Agent (copied to the Trustee and the Registrar), as specified in this Section 2.07, shall endorse the relevant Global Note(s) with any increase or decrease and instruct the Common Depositary to reflect such increase or decrease in its systems.
In connection with any transfer or exchange of definitive Notes, or any portion thereof, the holder of such Notes shall present or surrender to the Transfer Agent (copied to the Trustee and the Registrar) the definitive Notes duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instruction of transfer in a form satisfactory to the Registrar duly executed by such holder or by its attorney, duly authorized in writing.

THE REGISTERED HOLDER HEREOF MAY BE TREATED BY THE COMPANY, THE TRUSTEE, THE AGENTS AND ANY AGENT THEREOF AS OWNER AND HOLDER OF THIS SECURITY FOR ALL PURPOSES.
No transfer of any Note prior to the Resale Restriction Termination Date will be registered by the Note Registrar unless the applicable box on the completed Form of Assignment and Transfer has been checked.
(d)    If (i) Euroclear or Clearstream notifies the Company at any time that they are unwilling or unable to continue as clearing agencies for the Global Notes and a successor is not appointed within 120 days or (ii) an Event of Default in respect of the Notes has occurred and is continuing, upon the request of the beneficial owner of the Notes in writing to Euroclear and Clearstream, the Company will execute, and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Officers’ Certificate and a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of Notes, will authenticate and deliver (or cause an Authentication Agent to authenticate and deliver) Notes in definitive form to each such beneficial owner of the related Notes (or a portion thereof) as Euroclear and Clearstream shall instruct (but only in Permitted Denominations), in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of such Global Note, in exchange for such Global Note, and upon delivery of the Global Note to the Trustee such Global Note shall be canceled.
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 its standing procedures. At any time prior to such cancellation, if any interest in a Global Note is exchanged for definitive Notes, converted, canceled, repurchased, redeeemed or transferred to a transferee who receives definitive Notes therefor or any definitive Note is exchanged or transferred for part of such Global Note, the principal amount of such Global Note shall 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 Paying Agent to reflect such reduction or increase.
Neither the Trustee nor any Agent shall have any responsibility for any actions taken or not taken by the Common Depositary or Euroclear or Clearstream.
The Trustee shall have no responsibility or obligation to any direct or indirect participant or any other Person with respect to the accuracy of the books or records, or the acts or omissions, of Euroclear or Clearstream, the Common Depositary or its nominee or of any participant or member thereof, with respect to any ownership interest in the Notes or with respect to the delivery to any direct or indirect participant or other Person (other than the Common Depositary) of any notice (including any notice of redemption) or the payment of any amount, under or with respect to such Notes. All notices and communications to be given to the Noteholders and all payments to be made to Noteholders under the Notes shall be given or made only to or upon the order of the registered Noteholders (which shall be the Common Depositary or its nominee in the case of a Global Note). The rights of beneficial owners in any Global Note shall be exercised only through Euroclear or Clearstream subject to the Applicable Procedures. The Trustee may rely and shall be fully protected in relying upon information furnished by Euroclear or Clearstream with respect to its direct or indirect participants.
The Trustee shall have no obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on transfer imposed under this Indenture or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Note (including any transfers between or among direct or indirect participants in any Global Note) other than to require delivery of such certificates and other documentation or evidence as are expressly required by, and to do so if and when expressly required by, the terms of this Indenture, and to examine the same to determine substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements hereof.
SECTION 2.08.    Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Notes. In case any Note shall become mutilated or be destroyed, lost or stolen, the Company in its discretion may execute, and upon its written request the Trustee or an Authentication Agent, upon receipt of a Company Order, shall authenticate and deliver, a new Note, bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding, in exchange and substitution for the mutilated Note, or in lieu of and in substitution for the Note so destroyed, lost or stolen. In every case the applicant for a substituted Note shall furnish to the Company, to the Trustee and, if applicable, to such Authentication Agent such security, indemnity or pre-funding as may be required by them to save each of them harmless from any loss, liability, cost or expense caused by or connected with such substitution, and, in every case of destruction, loss or theft, the applicant shall also furnish to the Company, to the Trustee and, if applicable, to such Authentication Agent evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of such Note and of the ownership thereof.
The Trustee or such Authentication 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 Authentication Agent may require. Upon the issuance of any substitute Note, the Company or the Trustee may require the payment by the holder of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, assessment or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses connected therewith. In case any Note that has matured or is about to mature or has been tendered for repurchase upon a Fundamental Change or is about to be converted into cash, shall become mutilated or be destroyed, lost or stolen, or notice of redemption has been given in accordance with Article 14 hereof, 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 Authentication Agent such security, indemnity or pre-funding 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, including without limitation if a Note is replaced and subsequently presented or claimed for payment 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.
Every substitute Note issued pursuant to the provisions of this Section 2.08 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 or payment or conversion or repurchase or redemption 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 or payment or conversion of negotiable instruments or other securities without their surrender.

Pending the preparation of Notes in certificated form, the Company may execute and the Trustee or an Authentication Agent appointed by the Trustee shall, upon receipt of a Company Order, authenticate and deliver temporary Notes (printed or lithographed). Temporary Notes shall be issuable only in Permitted Denominations, and substantially in the form of the Notes in certificated form 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 Authentication Agent upon the same conditions and in substantially the same manner, and with the same effect, as the Notes in certificated form. Without unreasonable delay the Company will execute and deliver to the Trustee or such Authentication Agent Notes in certificated form (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 Authentication Agent shall, upon receipt of a Company Order, authenticate and deliver in exchange for such temporary Notes an equal aggregate principal amount of Notes in certificated form. 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 Notes in certificated form authenticated and delivered hereunder.
SECTION 2.10.    Cancellation of Notes Paid, Etc. All Notes surrendered for the purpose of payment, repurchase, redemption, conversion, exchange or registration of transfer, shall, if surrendered to the Company or any Paying Agent or any Conversion Agent or the Trustee, be surrendered to the Note Registrar and promptly canceled by it, or, if surrendered to the Note Registrar, shall be promptly canceled by it, and no Notes shall be issued in lieu thereof except as expressly permitted by any of the provisions of this Indenture. The Note Registrar shall dispose of canceled Notes in accordance with its customary procedures and, after such disposition, shall deliver a certificate of such disposition to the Company, at the Company’s written request. If the Company shall acquire any of the Notes, such acquisition shall not operate as satisfaction of the indebtedness represented by such Notes unless and until the same are delivered to the Note Registrar for cancellation.
SECTION 2.11.    ISIN and Common Code Numbers. The Company in issuing the Notes may use an “ISIN” or “Common Code” or similar identifier and, if so, such ISIN or Common Code or similar identifier shall be included in notices to Noteholders as a convenience to them; provided, however, that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the ISIN or Common Code or similar identifier printed in the notice or on the Notes, and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes, and any such notice shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such identifiers. The Company will promptly notify the Trustee of any change in the ISIN or Common Code or similar identifier. .
SECTION 2.12.    Additional Notes; Repurchases. The Company may, without the consent of the Noteholders and notwithstanding Section 2.01, reopen this Indenture and increase the principal amount of the Notes by issuing additional Notes in the future pursuant to this Indenture with the same terms and with the same ISIN or Common Code number as the Notes initially issued hereunder in an unlimited aggregate principal amount, which will form the same series with the Notes initially issued hereunder, provided that no such additional Notes may be issued unless they will be fungible with the original Notes for U.S. federal income tax and securities law purposes. 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, in addition to those required by Section 15.05, as the Trustee shall reasonably request. The Company may also from time to time repurchase the Notes in open market purchases or negotiated transactions without prior notice to Noteholders.
SECTION 2.13.    No Mandatory Redemption; No Sinking Fund. The Company will not be required to make mandatory redemption payments or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes.
SECTION 2.14.    Defaulted Interest. Any Defaulted Interest shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Noteholder on the relevant Interest Record Date by virtue of its having been such Noteholder, and such Defaulted Interest shall be paid by the Company, at its election in each case, as provided in clause (1) or (2) below:
(1)    The Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest 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 Interest, which shall be fixed in the following manner. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing as soon as practicable of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each Note and the date of the proposed payment (which shall be not less than twenty-five 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 (or any Paying Agent designated for such purpose) an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest 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 Interest as in this clause provided. Thereupon the Company shall fix a special record date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest which shall be not more than fifteen days and not less than seven days prior to the date of the proposed payment, and not less than ten days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment (unless the Trustee shall consent to an earlier date). The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee, in writing, of such special record date and the Trustee, in the name and at the expense of the Company, shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the special record date therefor to be delivered to Noteholders pursuant to Section 15.03 not less than ten days prior to such special record date. Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the special record date therefor having been so delivered, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid by the Trustee (or such Paying Agent) 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 (2) of this Section 2.03.
(2)    The Company may make payment of any Defaulted Interest 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.

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, to the extent permitted by applicable laws, 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.
Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Noteholder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Noteholder or the rights of any Noteholder thereof, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Noteholder 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 such waiver or rescission and annulment or for any other reason or shall have been determined adversely to the Trustee, then and in every such case the Company, the Noteholders, 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 Noteholders, and the Trustee shall continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted.
SECTION 6.05.    Application of Monies Collected by Trustee. Any monies or property collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article 6 with respect to the Notes shall be applied in the order following, at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee for the distribution of such monies or property, upon presentation of the several Notes, and stamping thereon the payment, if only partially paid, and upon surrender thereof, if fully paid:

Second, in case the principal of the outstanding Notes shall not have become due and be unpaid, to the payment of interest on the Notes, if any, in default in the order of the date due of the installments of such interest, with interest (to the extent that such interest is enforceable under applicable law and has been collected by the Trustee) upon the overdue installments of interest at the rate provided in the Notes, such payments to be made ratably to the Persons entitled thereto;

Fourth, to the payment of the remainder, if any, to the Company or as a court of competent jurisdiction shall direct.
SECTION 6.06.    Proceedings by Noteholders. No holder of any Note shall have any right by virtue of or by availing of any provision of this Indenture 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 such holder previously shall have given to the Trustee written notice of an Event of Default and of the continuance thereof, as hereinbefore provided, and unless also the holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding shall have made written request to the Trustee to institute such action, suit or proceeding in its own name as Trustee hereunder and shall have offered to the Trustee such security, indemnity or pre-funding satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense to be incurred therein or thereby, and the Trustee for sixty days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity, shall have neglected or refused to institute any such action, suit or proceeding and 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 in principal amount of the Notes outstanding within such sixty-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 Noteholders 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 Noteholder, 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 Noteholders (except as otherwise provided herein). For the protection and enforcement of this Section 6.06, each and every Noteholder 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, the right of any Noteholder to receive payment of the principal of (including the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price upon repurchase pursuant to Section 13.01 or any redemption price or the Cash Settlement Amount upon conversion), and accrued and unpaid interest on 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 on or after such respective dates against the Company shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Noteholder.
Anything in this Indenture or the Notes to the contrary notwithstanding, the holder of any Note, without the consent of either the Trustee or the holder of any other Note, in its own behalf and for its own benefit, may enforce, and may institute and maintain any proceeding suitable to enforce, its rights of conversion as provided herein.
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.
SECTION 6.08.    Remedies Cumulative and Continuing. Except as provided in the second paragraph of Section 2.08 and Section 6.04, all powers and remedies given by this Article 6 to the Trustee or to the Noteholders 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 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 Noteholders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as shall be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Noteholders.

The holders of a majority in 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 Notes; provided, however, that (a) such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or with this Indenture, and (b) 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 any past Default or Event of Default hereunder and its consequences except (i) a default in the payment of accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on, or the principal (including any Fundamental Change Repurchase Price or any redemption 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 deliver cash due upon conversion of the Notes, or (iii) a default in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which under Article 9 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 ninety days after the occurrence and continuance of a Default or Event of Default of which a Responsible Officer has actual knowledge give notice of all Defaults known to a Responsible Officer to all Noteholders, unless such Defaults or Events of Default shall have been cured or waived before the giving of such notice; and provided that, except in the case of a Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of, accrued and unpaid interest on any of the Notes, including without limiting the generality of the foregoing any Default in the payment of any Fundamental Change Repurchase Price or any redemption price, then in any such event the Trustee shall be protected in withholding such notice if and so long as a committee of Responsible Officers of the Trustee in good faith determine that the withholding of such notice is in the interests of the Noteholders.
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 Noteholder, or group of Noteholders, 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 Noteholder for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of accrued and unpaid interest on any Note (including, but not limited to, the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price or any redemption price with respect to the Notes being repurchased or redeemed as provided in this Indenture) 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 in accordance with the provisions of Article 12.

ARTICLE 7
CONCERNING THE TRUSTEE
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 case an Event of Default has occurred (which has not been cured or waived) 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 their 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 offered to the Trustee indemnity, security or pre-funding satisfactory to the Trustee against the losses, liabilities and expenses 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 as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision, except that:
(e)    prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default and after the curing or waiving of all Events of Default that may have occurred, 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;
(f)    in the absence of bad faith or 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);
(g)    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 in a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision that the Trustee was grossly negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts;
(h)    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 in 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;
(i)    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;
(j)    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 Note Registrar with respect to the Notes; and
(k)    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 such Responsible Officer of the Trustee had actual knowledge of such event.
None of the provisions contained in this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur personal financial liability in the performance of any of its duties or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers. The Trustee will not be liable to the Noteholders if prevented or delayed from performing any of its obligations or discretionary functions under this Indenture by reason of any present or future law applicable to it, by any governmental or regulatory authority or by any circumstances beyond its control.
SECTION 7.02.    Reliance on Documents, Opinions, Etc. Except as otherwise provided in Section 7.01:
(e)    the Trustee may conclusively rely and shall be fully protected in acting upon any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, bond, note, coupon or other paper or document believed by it in good faith to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties;
(f)    any request, direction, order or demand of the Company mentioned herein shall be sufficiently evidenced by an Officers’ Certificate (unless other evidence in respect thereof be herein specifically prescribed); and any Board Resolution may be evidenced to the Trustee by a copy thereof certified by the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the Company;
(g)    the Trustee may consult with counsel and require an Opinion of Counsel and any advice of such counsel or Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with such advice or Opinion of Counsel;
(h)    the Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request, order or direction of any of the Noteholders pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture, unless such Noteholders shall have offered to the Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to it (which may include pre-funding) against the costs, expenses and liabilities that may be incurred therein or thereby;
(i)    the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture or other paper or document, but the Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled, at a reasonable time on any Business Day, to examine the books, records and premises of the Company, personally or by agent or attorney at the expense of the Company and shall incur no liability of any kind by reason of such inquiry or investigation;
(j)    the Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents, custodians, nominees or attorneys and the Trustee shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any agent, custodian, nominee or attorney appointed by it with due care hereunder;
(k)    the permissive rights of the Trustee enumerated herein shall not be construed as duties;
(l)    the Trustee may request that the Company deliver a certificate setting forth the names of individuals and/or titles of Officers authorized at such time to take specified actions pursuant to the Indenture (i.e., an incumbency certificate);

(o)    the Trustee shall not be required to give any bond or surety in respect of the performance of its powers and duties hereunder;
(p)    the Trustee may refrain from taking any action in any jurisdiction if the taking of such action in that jurisdiction would, in its opinion, based upon legal advice in the relevant jurisdiction, be contrary to any law of that jurisdiction or, to the extent applicable, the State of New York. Furthermore, the Trustee may also refrain from taking such action if it would otherwise render it liable to any Person in that jurisdiction, the State of New York or if, in its opinion based upon such legal advice, it would not have the power to take such action in that jurisdiction by virtue of any applicable law in that jurisdiction, in the State of New York or if it is determined by any court or other competent authority in that jurisdiction, in the State of New York that it does not have such power;
(q)    the Trustee shall not have any obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance, and shall not be responsible or liable for compliance with restrictions on transfer, exchange, redemption, purchase or repurchase, as applicable, of minimum denominations imposed under this Indenture or under applicable law or regulation with respect to any transfer, exchange, redemption, purchase or repurchase, as applicable, of any interest in any Notes;
(r)    the rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee, including its right to be indemnified and/or secured to its satisfaction, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder, by each Agent in their various capacities hereunder, each custodian and other Person employed to act as agent hereunder. Each of the Trustee and the Agents shall not be liable for acting in good faith on instructions believed by it to be genuine and from the proper party;
(s)    in no event shall the Trustee be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations hereunder arising out of, or caused by, directly or indirectly, forces beyond its control, including, without limitation, acts of war or terrorism, civil or military disturbances, nuclear or natural catastrophes or acts of God; it being understood that the Trustee shall use reasonable efforts that are consistent with accepted practices in the banking industry to resume performance as soon as practicable under the circumstances; and
(t)    the Trustee may assume without inquiry in the absence of actual knowledge of a Responsible Officer that the Company is duly complying with its obligations contained in this Indenture and that no Event of Default or other event which would require repayment of the Notes has occurred;
In no event shall the Trustee be liable for any consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including but not limited to lost profits), even if the Trustee has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action other than any such loss or damage caused by the Trustee’s willful misconduct or gross negligence as proven in a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision. The Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of any Default or Event of Default with respect to the Notes, unless either (1) a Responsible Officer shall have actual knowledge of such Default or Event of Default or (2) written notice of such Default or Event of Default shall have been given to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee by the Company or by any holder of the Notes.
SECTION 7.03.    No Responsibility for Recitals, Etc. The recitals contained herein and in the Notes (except in the Authentication Agent’s certificate of authentication) shall be taken as the statements of the Company, and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for the correctness of the same. The Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or of the Notes. The Trustee shall not be accountable for the use or application by the Company of any Notes or the proceeds of any Notes authenticated and delivered by the Trustee in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture.
SECTION 7.04.    Trustee, Paying Agents, Conversion Agents or Registrar May Own Notes. The Trustee, any Paying Agent, any Conversion Agent or Note Registrar, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Notes with the same rights it would have if it were not the Trustee, Paying Agent, Conversion Agent or Note Registrar.
SECTION 7.05.    Monies to Be Held in Trust. All monies received by the Trustee shall, until used or applied as herein provided, be held in trust for the purposes for which they were received. Money held by the Trustee in trust hereunder need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. The Trustee shall be under no liability for interest on any money received by it hereunder except as may be agreed from time to time by the Company and the Trustee.
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, 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 expenses, disbursements and advances properly incurred or made by the Trustee in accordance with any of the provisions of this Indenture in any capacity thereunder (including the properly incurred compensation and the 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 negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith as determined by a final, non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction. In the event of being requested by the Company to undertake duties which the Trustee reasonably determines to be of an exceptional nature or otherwise outside the scope of the normal duties of the Trustee, the Company shall pay to the Trustee such additional remuneration as shall be agreed between them. 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 for, and to hold them harmless against, any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense incurred without negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith on the part of the Trustee as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision, its officers, directors, agents or employees, or such agent, as the case may be, and arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of this trust or in any other capacity hereunder, including the costs and expenses of defending themselves against any claim of liability in the premises. 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 (even though the Notes may be so subordinated). 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 or 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 and shall survive the termination of this Indenture and the resignation or removal of the Trustee.
Without prejudice to any other rights available to the Trustee under applicable law, when the Trustee and its agents incur expenses or render services after an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(h) 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, willful misconduct, recklessness and bad faith on the part of the Trustee as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision, 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, willful misconduct, recklessness and bad faith on the part of the Trustee as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision, 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.    Conflicting Interests of Trustee. The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Company or any affiliate of the Company with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. However, in the event the Trustee has or shall acquire a conflicting interest, the Trustee shall either eliminate such interest within ninety days or resign.
SECTION 7.09.    Eligibility of Trustee. There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder that is a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of England and Wales, or the United States of America, or any state thereof, that is authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trustee power, that is subject to supervision or examination by U.K. or U.S. federal or state authorities and which is generally recognized as a corporation which customarily performs such corporate trustee roles and provides such corporate trustee services in transactions similar in nature to the offering of the Notes.
SECTION 7.10.    Resignation or Removal of Trustee. (1) The Trustee may at any time resign by giving written notice of such resignation to the Company and all Noteholders. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Company shall promptly appoint a successor trustee by written instrument, in duplicate, executed by order of the Board of Directors, 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 sixty days after the giving of such notice of resignation to all Noteholders, the resigning Trustee may, upon ten Business Days’ notice to the Company and all Noteholders, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor trustee, or any Noteholder who has been a bona fide holder of a Note or Notes for at least six months may, subject to the provisions of Section 6.11, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any such court for the appointment of a successor trustee. Such court may thereupon, after such notice, if any, as it may deem proper and prescribe, appoint a successor trustee.
(a)    In case at any time any of the following shall occur:
(i)    the Trustee shall fail to comply with Section 7.08 within a reasonable time after written request therefor by the Company or by any Noteholder who has been a bona fide holder of a Note or Notes for at least six months, or
(ii)    the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of Section 7.09 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Company or by any such Noteholder, or
(iii)    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 any such case, the Company may by a Board Resolution remove the Trustee and appoint a successor trustee by written instrument, in duplicate, executed by order of the Board of Directors, 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 Noteholder who has been a bona fide holder of a Note or Notes for at least six months may, on behalf of himself 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.
(b)    The holders of 75% or more 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 Noteholder, upon the terms and conditions and otherwise as in Section 7.10(a) provided, may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for an appointment of a successor trustee.
(c)    Any resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor trustee pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section 7.10 shall become effective upon acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee as provided in Section 7.11.
SECTION 7.11.    Acceptance by Successor Trustee. Any successor trustee appointed as provided in Section 7.10 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.
No successor trustee shall accept appointment as provided in this Section 7.11 unless at the time of such acceptance such successor trustee shall be qualified under the provisions of Section 7.08 and be eligible under the provisions of Section 7.09.
Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor trustee as provided in this Section 7.11, each of the Company and the successor trustee, at the written direction and at the expense of the Company, shall give notice of the succession of such trustee to all Noteholders. If the Company fails to give such notice within ten days after acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee, the successor trustee shall cause such notice to be given at the expense of the Company.

ARTICLE 8
CONCERNING THE NOTEHOLDERS
SECTION 8.01.    Action by Noteholders. Whenever in this Indenture it is provided that the holders of a specified percentage in 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 by any instrument or any number of instruments of similar tenor executed by Noteholders in person or by agent or proxy appointed in writing. 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 Noteholders 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 Noteholders. Subject to the provisions of Section 7.01 and Section 7.02, proof of the execution of any instrument by a Noteholder 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.
SECTION 8.03.    Who Are Deemed Absolute Owners. The Company, the Trustee, any Authentication 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 of and (subject to Section 2.03) accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on such Note, for conversion of such Note and for all other purposes; 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. All such payments so made to any holder for the time being, or upon its order, shall be valid and, to the extent of the sum or sums so paid, effectual to satisfy and discharge the liability for monies payable upon any such Note.
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 or by any Person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with the Company 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 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 or a Person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with the Company. 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 Noteholders 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 in 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.

ARTICLE 9
SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURES
SECTION 9.01.    Supplemental Indentures Without Consent of Noteholders. The Company and the Trustee, at 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:
(a)    to cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency in this Indenture or the Notes in a manner that does not adversely affect the rights of any Noteholder;
(b)    to provide for the assumption by a Successor Company of the obligations of the Company under this Indenture pursuant to Article 10;
(c)    to add guarantees with respect to the Notes;
(d)    to secure the Notes;
(e)    to add to the covenants of the Company such further covenants, restrictions or conditions for the benefit of the Noteholders or surrender any right or power conferred upon the Company;
(f)    to make any change that does not adversely affect the rights of any holder in any material respect;
(g)    to appoint a successor Trustee with respect to the Notes; or
(h)    to issue additional Notes in accordance with Section 2.08 hereof.
Upon the written request of the Company, the Trustee is hereby authorized to join with the Company in the execution of any such supplemental indenture and 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 9.01 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 9.02.
SECTION 9.02.    Supplemental Indentures With Consent of Noteholders. With the consent (evidenced as provided in Article 8) of the holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding (determined in accordance with Article 8 and including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, Notes), the Company, when authorized by the resolutions of the Board of Directors and the Trustee, 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 of the Notes or waiving any past default or compliance with provisions of this Indenture; provided, however, that no such supplemental indenture shall:

(b)    reduce the rate or extend the stated time for payment of interest on any Note;
(c)    reduce the principal of, or extend the Maturity Date of, any Note;
(d)    make any change that impairs or adversely affects the conversion rights of any Notes;

(f)    make any Note payable in a currency other than that stated in the Note;
(g)    change the ranking of the Notes in a manner that is adverse to the Noteholders;
(h) impair the right of any holder to receive payment of principal of and interest, if any, on such holder’s Notes on or after the due dates therefor or to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on or with respect to such holder’s Note; or
(i) make any change in this Section 9.02 or in the waiver provisions in Section 6.02 or Section 6.09,
in each case without the consent of each holder of an outstanding Note affected.
Upon the written request of the Company, and upon the filing with the Trustee of evidence of the consent of Noteholders as aforesaid and subject to Section 9.05, 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.
It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Noteholders under this Section 9.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture, but it shall be sufficient if such consent shall approve the substance thereof. After an amendment under this Indenture becomes effective, the Company shall give notice briefly describing such amendment to all Noteholders. 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 amendment.
SECTION 9.03.    Effect of Supplemental Indentures. Upon the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions of this Article 9, 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 parties hereto and the Noteholders 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.
SECTION 9.04.    Notation on Notes. Notes authenticated and delivered after the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions of this Article 9 may, at the Company’s expense, bear a notation as to any matter provided for in such supplemental indenture. If the Trustee or the Company shall so determine, new Notes so modified as to conform, in the opinion of the Trustee and the Board of Directors, 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 Authentication Agent), and delivered in exchange for the Notes then outstanding, upon surrender of such Notes then outstanding.
SECTION 9.05.    Evidence of Compliance of Supplemental Indenture to Be Furnished to Trustee. In addition to the documents required by Section 15.05, 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 9 and is permitted or authorized by the Indenture, and such supplemental indenture is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms.

ARTICLE 10
CONSOLIDATION, MERGER, SALE, CONVEYANCE AND LEASE
SECTION 10.01.    Company May Consolidate, Etc. on Specified Terms. Subject to the provisions of Section 10.02, the Company shall not consolidate with, merge with or into, or convey, transfer, split-off or lease all or substantially all of its properties and assets to another Person, unless:
(h)    the resulting, surviving or transferee Person (the “Successor Company”), if not the Company, shall be a corporation, partnership, limited liability company or similar entity organized and existing under the laws of any member state of the European Union, 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, executed and delivered to the Trustee, in form satisfactory to the Trustee, all the obligations of the Company under the Notes and this Indenture; and
(i)    immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing under this Indenture.
Upon any such consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer, split-off or lease the Successor Company (if not the Company) shall succeed to, and may exercise every right and power of, the Company under this Indenture.
For purposes of this Section 10.01, the conveyance, transfer, split-off or lease of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of one or more Subsidiaries of the Company to another Person that is not, or Persons that are not, the Company or Subsidiaries of the Company, 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, shall be deemed to be the transfer of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Company to another Person.
SECTION 10.02.    Successor Corporation to Be Substituted. In case of any such consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer, split-off 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, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, 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 shall succeed to and 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 in its own name 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, upon receipt of a Company Order, authenticate and shall deliver, or cause to be authenticated and delivered, 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, conveyance, transfer or split-off (but not in the case of a lease), 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 10 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.
In case of any such consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer, split-off 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 10.03.    Opinion of Counsel to Be Given to Trustee. The Company shall not effect any merger, consolidation, conveyance, transfer, split-off or lease referred to in Section 10.01 unless the Trustee shall receive an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel as conclusive evidence that any such consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer, split-off 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 10.

ARTICLE 11
IMMUNITY OF INCORPORATORS, STOCKHOLDERS,
OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS

No recourse for the payment of the principal of or accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on 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, stockholder, employee, agent, officer or director or Subsidiary, as such, past, present or future, of the Company or of any successor corporation or entity, either directly or through the Company or any successor corporation or entity, 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 issuance of the Notes.

ARTICLE 12
CONVERSION OF NOTES
SECTION 12.01.    Conversion Right. (1) Upon compliance with the provisions of this Article 12, a 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 $200,000 principal amount or an integral multiple thereof) of such Note (i) subject to satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 12.01(b), at any time during the Contingent Conversion Period under the circumstances and during the periods set forth in Section 12.01(b), and (ii) irrespective of the conditions set forth in Section 12.01(b), at any time following the Contingent Conversion Period that is prior to the close of business on the fifth Business Day immediately preceding the Maturity Date, in each case, at an initial Conversion Ratio (the “Conversion Ratio”) of 7,056.7273 (subject to adjustment as provided in Section 12.04 of this Indenture) per $200,000 principal amount of Notes (subject to the settlement provisions of Section 12.02, the “Conversion Obligation”). A Noteholder may convert a portion (less than all) of its Notes only if the Notes the Noteholder retains are in a Permitted Denomination.
(a)    During the Contingent Conversion Period, the Notes may be surrendered for conversion:    
(i)    during the five Business Days immediately after any ten consecutive Trading Days period (the “Measurement Period”) in which the Trading Price per $200,000 principal amount of Notes, as determined following a request by a holder of Notes which complies with the requirements of this subsection (b)(i), for each day of such Measurement Period was less than 98% of the product of the then-applicable Conversion Ratio on such Trading Day and the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Stock on such Trading Day. The Trading Prices shall be determined by the Calculation Agent pursuant to this subsection (b)(i). The Calculation Agent shall have no obligation to determine the Trading Price of the Notes unless the Company has requested such determination in writing; and the Company shall have no obligation to make such request unless a Noteholder provides the Company with reasonable evidence that the Trading Price per $200,000 principal amount of the Notes would be less than 98% of the product of the then-applicable Conversion Ratio and the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Stock at such time, at which time the Company shall instruct the Calculation Agent in writing to determine the Trading Price of the Notes beginning on the next Trading Day and on each successive Trading Day until the Trading Price per $200,000 principal amount of the Notes is greater than or equal to 98% of the product of the then-applicable Conversion Ratio and the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Stock on such Trading Day. Any such determination will be conclusive absent manifest error. If, upon presentation of such reasonable evidence by a Noteholder, the Company does not instruct the Calculation Agent in writing to determine the Trading Price of the Notes as provided in the preceding sentence, or if the Company does so instruct the Calculation Agent but the Calculation Agent fails to make the determination, then the Trading Price per $200,000 principal amount of Notes will be deemed to be less than 98% of the product of the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Stock and the then-applicable Conversion Ratio for each Trading Day thereafter until any Trading Day on which the Calculation Agent, upon instruction of the Company, makes such determination. If, following such request from the Noteholder and the procedures outlined above, the Trading Price condition to conversion set forth above is determined to have been met by the Calculation Agent, the Company shall so notify the Noteholders, the Trustee and the Conversion Agent. If, at any time after the Trading Price condition to conversion set forth above has been met, the Trading Price per $200,000 principal amount of the Notes is greater than or equal to 98% of the product of the then-applicable Conversion Ratio and the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Stock on such Trading Day, the Company shall so notify the Noteholders, the Trustee and the Conversion Agent in writing. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of Section 12.06 apply to the determinations and procedures contemplated by this Section 12.01(b)(i);
(ii)    in the event that the Company elects to distribute cash, assets, securities, or other property to all or substantially all holders of its Common Stock, which distribution has a per share value (as determined by the Calculation Agent) greater than 25% of the arithmetic mean of the Daily VWAP of the Common Stock on each Trading Day in the 20 consecutive Trading Day period immediately preceding the date of declaration for such distribution, then the Company shall notify all holders of the Notes, the Trustee and the Conversion Agent not less than 20 Scheduled Trading Days prior to the proposed Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution and will update such notice promptly if the proposed Ex-Dividend Date subsequently changes. Once the Company has given such notice, the Notes may be surrendered for conversion at any time until the earlier of (1) the close of business on the fifth Business Day immediately prior to such Ex-Dividend Date and (2) the Company’s announcement that such distribution will not take place, even if the Notes are not otherwise convertible at such time. No Noteholder may exercise this right to convert if the Noteholder otherwise may participate in such distribution without conversion (based upon the then-applicable Conversion Ratio and upon the same terms as holders of the Company’s Common Stock);
(iii)    in the event of a Fundamental Change (determined without regard to the proviso immediately following clause (d) of such definition) or a Make-Whole Fundamental Change, a Noteholder may surrender Notes for conversion at any time from and after the 60th Scheduled Trading Day prior to the anticipated effective date of such Fundamental Change or Make-Whole Fundamental Change, as the case may be, until the close of business on the fifth Business Day immediately preceding the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date, if any, corresponding to such Fundamental Change (or, if later, the close of business on the 60th calendar day (or, if such day is not a Business Day, the immediately following Business Day) following the date of the Fundamental Change Company Notice), or, in the case of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change that does not constitute a Fundamental Change, the close of business on the 60th Trading Day immediately following such effective date (or, if later, the close of business on the 60th calendar day (or, if such day is not a Business Day, the immediately following Business Day) following the date on which Noteholders are given notice of the Make-Whole Fundamental Change following the occurrence thereof. The Company shall give notice to all Noteholders, the Trustee and the Conversion Agent of the anticipated effective date of any proposed Fundamental Change or Make-Whole Fundamental Change, as the case may be, as soon as practicable after the date the Company publicly announces such event, and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to determine the anticipated effective date and make such announcement in time to give such notice no later than 60 Scheduled Trading Days in advance of such anticipated effective date; provided that (i) the Company shall not be required to give such notice more than 60 Scheduled Trading Days in advance of such anticipated effective date, (ii) if the Company does not have knowledge of such event at least 60 Scheduled Trading Days in advance of such anticipated effective date, the Company shall provide such notice within one Business Day of the date upon which the Company receives notice or otherwise becomes aware of such event; and (iii) the Company shall update any such previously given notice promptly if the anticipated effective date subsequently changes.
(iv)    in any Fiscal Quarter during the Contingent Conversion Period after the Fiscal Quarter ending March 31, 2014, if the arithmetic mean of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock in each Trading Day in any twenty consecutive Trading Days within the period of thirty consecutive Trading Days ending on, and including, the last Trading Day of the immediately preceding Fiscal Quarter is equal to or more than 130% of the then-applicable Conversion Price on the last day of such preceding Fiscal Quarter (such price, the “Conversion Trigger Price”). The Company shall have the Calculation Agent promptly determine, at the beginning of each Fiscal Quarter after the fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2014, whether the Notes may be surrendered for conversion in accordance with this clause (iv) and shall promptly notify the Trustee, the Conversion Agent and the Noteholders;
(v)    at any time from and after the day (which must be a Business Day) on which notice of redemption is given in accordance with Article 14 hereof until the close of business on the 10th calendar day (or, if such day is not a Business Day, the immediately following Business Day) immediately preceding the Redemption Date; and
(vi)    at any time from and after the occurrence of an Event of Default, until such Event of Default shall have been cured or waived or the principal amount of the Notes shall have been accelerated.
SECTION 12.02.    Conversion Procedure. (1) Subject to this Section 12.02, upon any conversion of any Note, the Company shall deliver to converting Noteholders, in respect of each $200,000 principal amount of Notes being converted, cash in amount equal to the sum of the Daily Cash Settlement Amounts for each of the 50 consecutive Trading Days during the related Calculation Period (the “Cash Settlement Amount”), as set forth in this Section 12.02, and as determined by the Calculation Agent.
(a)    In respect of definitive Notes, before any holder shall be entitled to convert the same as set forth above, such holder shall complete and manually sign and deliver an irrevocable notice to the Conversion Agent in the form attached as Exhibit B hereto (a “Notice of Conversion”) at the office of the Conversion Agent and state in writing therein the principal amount of Notes to be converted, (2) surrender such Notes, duly endorsed to the Company or in blank (and accompanied by any appropriate endorsement and transfer documents), at the office of the Conversion Agent, and (3) if required, furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents. In respect of Global Notes, beneficial interests therein may only be surrendered for conversion in accordance with the Applicable Procedures. In connection with all conversions in respect of beneficial interests in a Global Note, the Conversion Agent (copied to the Trustee and the Registrar) must receive: (1) a Notice of Conversion from the Common Depositary or its nominee (as the sole registered holder of such Global Note); and (2) a written order from a Participant or an Indirect Participant given to the Common Depositary in accordance with the Applicable Procedures directing the Common Depositary to surrender for conversion an amount equal to the beneficial interest to be converted.
The Conversion Agent shall notify the Company of any conversion pursuant to this Article 12 as soon as practicable and no later than the following Business Day. Without diminishing the Conversion Agent’s liability to the Company for failure to comply with its obligation under the preceding sentence, any delay in such notification will not invalidate the effectiveness of the Notice of Conversion.
No Notice of Conversion with respect to any Notes (or portions thereof) may be given by a holder thereof or shall be effective if such holder has also delivered a Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice to the Company in respect of such Notes (or portions thereof) and not validly withdrawn such Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice in accordance with Section 13.02, unless the Company defaults in the payment of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price.
If more than one Note (or portion thereof) shall be surrendered for conversion at one time by the same holder, the Conversion Obligation with respect to such Notes (or portions thereof), if any, that shall be payable upon conversion 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.
A Note (or portion thereof) shall be deemed to have been converted immediately prior to the close of business on the date (the “Conversion Date”) that each of the requirements set forth in this Section 12.02(b) have been complied with.
(b)    The Company covenants and agrees that it will cause the cash due in respect of its Conversion Obligation to be paid to the holder(s) of the Notes on the fifth Business Day immediately following the last Trading Day of the applicable Calculation Period; provided, however, that if, prior to the Conversion Date for any converted Notes, the Common Stock has been replaced by Reference Property consisting solely of cash pursuant to Section 12.05, the Company will cause the cash due in respect of its Conversion Obligation to be paid on the tenth Business Day immediately following the relevant Conversion Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any information required in order to calculate the amount of cash due in respect of the Company’s Conversion Obligation will not be available as of the applicable delivery date specified above, the Company will cause the applicable amount to be paid on the fifth Business Day after the earliest Trading Day on which such calculation can be made. The Company shall provide written notice to the Paying Agent (copied to the Trustee and Conversion Agent) at least three Business Days in advance of any such settlement date in the form of Exhibit C (a “Confirmation of Conversion”). For the avoidance of doubt, none of the Trustee, the Conversion Agent or the Paying Agent will have any further obligation in respect of any notice delivered to the Company pursuant to Section 12.02(b) in relation to any conversion, including the payment of any cash due upon conversion, unless and until a Confirmation of Conversion is received from the Company.
The Company shall deposit with the Paying Agent no later than 10:00 a.m. London time one Business Day prior to the settlement date specified in the Confirmation of Conversion an amount of cash sufficient to pay the cash specified as due in the Confirmation of Conversion. If the Paying Agent holds money sufficient to make such payment by such time and on such date and is not prohibited from paying such money to the Noteholders, then, provided that the cash due and the settlement date specified in the Confirmation of Conversion are correct: (i) such Notes (or portions thereof) will cease to be outstanding; (ii) interest will cease to accrue on such Notes on and after the Conversion Date; and (iii) all other rights of the holders of such Notes will terminate (other than the right to receive the cash due in respect of the Company’s Conversion Obligation). If the cash due in respect of the Company’s Conversion Obligation is not paid on the settlement date or in the correct amount, including because of failure of the Company to comply with this Section 12.02(c) or due to inaccuracy or mistake in the Confirmation of Conversion, interest shall be paid on the overdue Cash Settlement Amount, or on any deficiency in the portion thereof paid, at the rate provided in the Notes.
For the avoidance of doubt, the Trustee, Conversion Agent and Paying Agent shall be held harmless and have no liability with respect to any inaccuracy or mistake in the Confirmation of Conversion (and, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not be required to pay a greater or lesser amount than specified, or on a date other than the settlement date specified, in the Confirmation of Conversion), be held harmless and have no liability with respect to payments or disbursements to be made by the Paying Agent (i) for which payment instructions are not made or that are not otherwise deposited by the respective times set forth in this Section 12.02(c), and (ii) until they have confirmed receipt of funds sufficient to make the relevant payment, and shall also be held harmless with respect to any authentication and delivery of a definitive Note in reduced principal amount pursuant to Section 12.02(d) or any notation reducing the principal amount represented by any Global Note pursuant to Section 12.02(e) in reliance on a Confirmation of Conversion.
(c)    In case any definitive Note shall be surrendered for partial conversion, the Company shall execute and the Trustee or any Authentication Agent, upon receipt of a Company Order, shall authenticate and deliver to or upon the written order of the holder of the Note so surrendered, without charge to such holder, a new Note or Notes in authorized denominations in an aggregate principal amount equal to the unconverted portion of the surrendered Note.
(d)    Upon the conversion of an interest in a Global Note, the Registrar or the Paying Agent shall make a notation on such Global Note as to the reduction in the principal amount represented thereby.
(e)    Upon conversion, a Noteholder shall not receive any additional cash payment for accrued and unpaid interest except as set forth below. The Company’s settlement of the Conversion Obligations pursuant to Section 12.02 shall be deemed to satisfy its obligation to pay the principal amount of the Note and accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the Conversion Date. As a result, accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the Conversion Date shall be deemed to be paid in full rather than cancelled, extinguished or forfeited. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, if definitive Notes are converted after the close of business on an Interest Record Date, holders of such definitive Notes as of the close of business on the Interest Record Date will receive the interest payable on such definitive Notes on the corresponding Interest Payment Date notwithstanding the conversion, provided that the Settlement Amount in respect of any such definitive Notes surrendered for conversion during the period from the close of business on any Interest Record Date to the opening of business on the corresponding Interest Payment Date will be reduced by an amount equal to the interest payable on the Notes so converted; provided, further, however, that no such reduction in the Settlement Amount shall result (1) if the Company has specified a Fundamental Change Repurchase Date that is after such Interest Record Date but on or prior to the corresponding Interest Payment Date, (2) to the extent of any Defaulted Interest existing at the time of conversion with respect to such definitive Notes, (3) if the Company has specified a Redemption Date that is after such Interest Record Date but on or prior to the corresponding Interest Payment Date; or (4) if the definitive Notes are surrendered for conversion after the close of business on the Interest Record Date immediately preceding the Maturity Date. For the avoidance of doubt, owing to absence of intervening Business Days between Interest Record Dates and corresponding Interest Payment Dates in the case of Global Notes, no conversion of a beneficial interest in a Global Note between the close of business on an Interest Record Date and the opening of business on the corresponding Interest Payment Date may (or is intended to) occur, and the immediately preceding sentence shall have no application to any such interests in Global Notes. Except as set forth in this Section 12.02(f), no payment or adjustment will be made for accrued and unpaid interest on converted Notes.
SECTION 12.03.    Increased Conversion Ratio Applicable to Certain Notes Surrendered in Connection with Make-Whole Fundamental Changes. (1) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Conversion Ratio applicable to each Note that is surrendered for conversion, in accordance with this Article 12, at any time from, and including, the effective date (the “Effective Date”) of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change until, and including, the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the related Fundamental Change Repurchase Date, or, in the case of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change that does not constitute a Fundamental Change, the close of business on the 60th Trading Day immediately following the Effective Date of such Make-Whole Fundamental Change (or, if later in either case, the close of business on the 60th calendar day (or, if such day is not a Business Day, the immediately following Business Day) following the date of the related Fundamental Change Company Notice or the date on which Noteholders are given notice of the Make-Whole Fundamental Change following the occurrence thereof, as applicable) (such period, the “Make-Whole Fundamental Change Period”), shall be increased to an amount equal to the Conversion Ratio that would, but for this Section 12.03, otherwise apply to such Note pursuant to this Article 12, plus an amount equal to the Make-Whole Conversion Ratio Adjustment.
As used herein, “Make-Whole Conversion Ratio Adjustment” shall mean, with respect to a Make-Whole Fundamental Change, the amount set forth in the following table that corresponds to the Effective Date of such Make-Whole Fundamental Change and the Stock Price for such Make-Whole Fundamental Change, all as determined by the Calculation Agent:

provided, however, that:
(i)    if the actual Stock Price of such Make-Whole Fundamental Change is between two Stock Prices listed in the table above under the row titled “Stock Price,” or if the actual Effective Date of such Make-Whole Fundamental Change is between two Effective Dates listed in the table above in the column immediately below the title “Effective Date,” then the Make-Whole Conversion Ratio Adjustment for such Make-Whole Fundamental Change shall be determined by the Calculation Agent by straight-line interpolation between the Make-Whole Conversion Ratio Adjustment set forth for such higher and lower Stock Prices, or for such earlier and later Effective Dates based on a 365-day year, as applicable;
(ii)    if the actual Stock Price of such Make-Whole Fundamental Change is greater than 120.00 per share (subject to adjustment in the same manner as the Stock Price as provided in clause (iii) below), or if the actual Stock Price of such Make-Whole Fundamental Change is less than $21.39 per share (subject to adjustment in the same manner as the Stock Price as provided in clause (iii) below), then the Make-Whole Conversion Ratio Adjustment shall be equal to zero and this Section 12.03 shall not require the Company to increase the Conversion Ratio with respect to such Make-Whole Fundamental Change;
(iii)    if an event occurs that requires, pursuant to this Article 12 (other than solely pursuant to this Section 12.03), an adjustment to the Conversion Ratio, then, on the date and at the time such adjustment is so required to be made, each price set forth in the table above under the row titled “Stock Price” shall be deemed to be adjusted so that such Stock Price, at and after such time, shall be equal to the product of (1) such Stock Price as in effect immediately before such adjustment to such Stock Price and (2) a fraction whose numerator is the Conversion Ratio in effect immediately before such adjustment to the Conversion Ratio and whose denominator is the Conversion Ratio to be in effect, in accordance with this Article 12, immediately after such adjustment to the Conversion Ratio;
(iv)    each Make-Whole Conversion Ratio Adjustment set forth in the table above shall be adjusted in the same manner in which, at the same time and for the same events for which, the Conversion Ratio is to be adjusted pursuant to Section 12.04; and
(v)    in no event will the Conversion Ratio exceed 9350.1636 per $200,000 principal amount of Notes, subject to adjustment in the same manner as the Conversion Ratio pursuant to Section 12.04.
(vi)    If any Noteholder converts such holder’s Notes prior to or following the Make-Whole Fundamental Change Period, such holder will not be entitled to receive the increased Conversion Ratio resulting from the Make-Whole Conversion Ratio Adjustment in connection with such conversion.
(b)    Each notice, announcement and publication required by Section 12.01(b)(iii) in respect of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change shall also state that in connection with such Make-Whole Fundamental Change, the Company shall increase, in accordance herewith, the Conversion Ratio applicable to Notes entitled as provided herein to such increase (along with a description of how such increase shall be calculated by the Calculation Agent and the time periods during which Notes must be surrendered in order to be entitled to such increase). No later than five Business Days after the actual Effective Date of each Make-Whole Fundamental Change, the Company shall give all Noteholders, the Trustee and the Conversion Agent written notice of such Effective Date and the amount by which the Conversion Ratio has been so increased.
Nothing in this Section 12.03 shall prevent an adjustment to the Conversion Ratio pursuant to Section 12.04 in respect of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change.
SECTION 12.04.    Adjustment of Conversion Ratio. The Conversion Ratio shall be adjusted from time to time by the Calculation Agent as follows:
(a)    If the Company issues solely shares of Common Stock as a dividend or distribution on all or substantially all of the shares of Common Stock, or if the Company effects a share split or share combination of the Common Stock, the applicable Conversion Ratio will be adjusted based on the following formula:
CR = CR0
x
 OS 
 OS

where
CR0 
=    the applicable Conversion Ratio in effect immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution, or immediately prior to the open of business on the Business Day immediately following the effective date of such share split or share combination, as the case may be;
CR
=    the applicable Conversion Ratio in effect 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 Business Day immediately following the effective date of such share split or share combination, as the case may be;
OS0
=    the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such dividend, distribution share split or share combination, as the case may be; and
OS
=     the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such dividend distribution share split or share combination, as the case may be.
Such adjustment shall become effective immediately after the opening of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution, or the Business Day immediately following the effective date for such share split or share combination. If any dividend or distribution of the type described in this Section 12.04(a) is declared but not so paid or made, or the outstanding shares of Common Stock are not split or combined, as the case may be, the Conversion Ratio shall be immediately readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors determines not to pay such dividend or distribution, or split or combine the outstanding shares of Common Stock, as the case may be, to the Conversion Ratio that would then be in effect if such dividend, distribution, share split or share combination had not been declared or announced.
(b)    If the Company distributes to all or substantially all holders of its Common Stock any rights, options or warrants entitling them for a period of not more than sixty calendar days from the record date for such distribution to subscribe for or purchase shares of the Common Stock, at a price per share less than the arithmetic average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock for the ten consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the declaration date for such distribution, the Conversion Ratio shall be increased based on the following formula:
CR = CR0
x
OS0 + X 
OS
0 + Y

where
CR0 
=    the applicable Conversion Ratio in effect immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution;
CR
=    the applicable Conversion Ratio in effect immediately after the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution;
OS0 
=    the number of shares of the Common Stock that are outstanding immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution;
X
=    the total number of shares of the Common Stock issuable pursuant to such rights, options or warrants; and
Y
=    the number of shares of the Common Stock equal to the aggregate price payable to exercise such rights, options or warrants, divided by the arithmetic average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock over the shorter of (i) the period of Trading Days from, and including, the date of announcement of the terms of such rights, options or warrants distribution (if announced prior to the close of business, or, otherwise, the immediately following Trading Day) to, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date relating to such rights, options or warrants distribution; and (ii) the ten consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date relating to such rights, options or warrants distribution.
Such adjustment shall be successively made whenever any such rights, options or warrants are distributed and shall become effective immediately after the opening of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution. To the extent that shares of the Common Stock are not delivered after the expiration of such rights, options or warrants, the Conversion Ratio shall be readjusted to the Conversion Ratio that would then be in effect had the adjustments made upon the issuance of such rights, options or warrants been made on the basis of delivery of only the number of shares of the Common Stock actually delivered. If such rights, options or warrants are not so issued, the Conversion Ratio shall again be adjusted to be the Conversion Ratio that would then be in effect if such Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution had not been fixed.
For purposes of this Section 12.04(b), in determining whether any rights, options or warrants entitle the holders to subscribe for or purchase shares of the Common Stock at less than the arithmetic average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock for each Trading Day in the applicable ten consecutive Trading Day period, 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 Calculation Agent. In no event shall the Conversion Ratio be decreased pursuant to this Section 12.04(b).
(c)    If the Company shall distribute shares of its Capital Stock, evidences of its indebtedness or other of its assets or property, or rights, options or warrants to acquire its Capital Stock or other securities, to all or substantially all holders of its Common Stock, other than (i) dividends or distributions (including share splits) covered by Section 12.04(a) or Section 12.04(b), (ii) dividends or distributions paid exclusively in cash and covered by Section 12.04(d) and (iii) Spin-Offs to which the provisions set forth below in this Section 12.04(c) shall apply (any of such shares of Capital Stock, indebtedness, or other asset or property, or rights, options or warrants to acquire its Capital Stock or other securities, hereinafter in this Section 12.04(c) called the “Distributed Property”), then, in each such case the Conversion Ratio shall be increased based on the following formula:
CR = CR0
x
      SP0          
SP
0 – FMV

where
CR0 
=    the applicable Conversion Ratio in effect immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution;
CR
=    the applicable Conversion Ratio in effect immediately after the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution.
SP0
=     the arithmetic average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock over the shorter of (i) the period of Trading Days from, and including, the date of announcement of the terms of such distribution (if announced prior to the close of business, or, otherwise, the immediately following Trading Day) to, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution; and (ii) the ten 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 Calculation Agent) of the shares of Capital Stock, evidences of indebtedness, assets or property distributed with respect to each outstanding share of the Common Stock as of the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution.
Such adjustment shall become effective immediately prior to the opening of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution; provided that if “FMV” as set forth above is equal to or greater than “SP0” as set forth above, in lieu of the foregoing adjustment, adequate provisions shall be made so that each Noteholder shall have the right to receive on conversion in respect of each $200,000 principal amount of the Notes held by such holder, in addition to the Cash Settlement Amount in respect of the number of shares of Common Stock represented by the Conversion Ratio, the amount and kind of Distributed Property such holder would have received had such holder owned a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the applicable Conversion Ratio immediately prior to the Record Date for such distribution. If such distribution is not so paid or made, the Conversion Ratio shall again be adjusted to be the Conversion Ratio that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared. If the Calculation Agent determines “FMV” for purposes of this Section 12.04(c) by reference to the actual or when issued trading market for any securities, it must in doing so consider the prices in such market over the same period used in computing the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock over the ten consecutive Trading Day period ending on the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution.
With respect to an adjustment pursuant to this Section 12.04(c) where there has been a dividend or other distribution on the Common Stock 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 (a “Spin-Off”), the Conversion Ratio will be increased based on the following formula:
CR = CR0
x
FMV0 + MP0 
MP
0

where
CR0 
=    the applicable Conversion Ratio in effect immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for the Spin-Off;
CR
=    the applicable Conversion Ratio in effect immediately after the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for the Spin-Off;
FMV0 
=    the arithmetic average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Capital Stock or similar equity interest distributed to holders of the Common Stock applicable to one share of the Common Stock (determined by reference to the definition of Last Reported Sale Price as set forth in Section 1.01 as if references there to Capital Stock were to such Capital Stock or similar equity interest) over the first ten consecutive Trading Day period immediately following, and including, the Ex-Dividend Date for the Spin-Off (such period, the “Valuation Period”), and
MP0 
=    the arithmetic average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock over the Valuation Period.
The adjustment to the Conversion Ratio under the preceding paragraph of this Section 12.04(c) shall be made immediately after the opening of business on the day after the last day of the Valuation Period, but shall become effective as of the opening of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for the Spin-Off. If the Ex-Dividend Date for the Spin-Off is less than ten consecutive Trading Days prior to, and including, the end of the Calculation Period in respect of any conversion, references within this Section 12.04(c) relating to Spin-Offs to ten consecutive Trading Days shall be deemed replaced, for purposes of calculating the affected daily Conversion Ratios in respect of that conversion, with such lesser number of Trading Days as have elapsed from, and including, the Ex-Dividend Date for the Spin-Off to, and including, the last Trading Day of such Calculation Period. For purposes of determining the applicable Conversion Ratio, in respect of any conversion during the ten consecutive Trading Days commencing on the Ex-Dividend Date of any Spin-Off, references within this Section 12.04(c) relating to Spin-Offs to ten consecutive Trading Days shall be deemed replaced with such lesser number of Trading Days as have elapsed from, and including, the Ex-Dividend Date for such Spin-Off to, but excluding, the Conversion Date for such conversion.
For purposes of this Section 12.04(c) (and subject in all respect to Section 12.11), rights, options or warrants distributed by the Company to all or substantially all holders of its Common Stock entitling them to subscribe for or purchase shares of the Company’s Capital Stock, including Common Stock (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 shares of the Common Stock; (ii) are not exercisable; and (iii) are also issued in respect of future issuances of the Common Stock, shall be deemed not to have been distributed for purposes of this Section 12.04(c) (and no adjustment to the Conversion Ratio under this Section 12.04(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 Ratio shall be made under this Section 12.04(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 Ratio under this Section 12.04(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 Ratio shall be readjusted as if such rights, options or warrants had not been issued and (y) the Conversion Ratio 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 Common Stock with respect to such rights, options or warrants (assuming such holder had retained such rights, options or warrants), made to all holders of Common Stock 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 Ratio shall be readjusted as if such rights, options and warrants had not been issued.
For purposes of Section 12.04(a), Section 12.04(b) and this Section 12.04(c), any dividend or distribution to which this Section 12.04(c) is applicable that also includes one or both of:
(A)    a dividend or distribution of shares of Common Stock to which Section 12.04(a) is applicable (the “Clause A Distribution”); or
(B)    a dividend or distribution of rights, options or warrants to which Section 12.04(b) is applicable (the “Clause B Distribution”),
then (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 12.04(c) is applicable (the “Clause C Distribution”) and any Conversion Ratio adjustment required by this Section 12.04(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 Ratio adjustment required by Section 12.04(a) and Section 12.04(b) with respect thereto shall then be made, except that, if determined by the Calculation Agent, (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 shares of Common Stock included in the Clause A Distribution or Clause B Distribution shall be deemed not to be “outstanding immediately prior to such dividend, distribution or share split or share combination” within the meaning of Section 12.04(a) or “outstanding immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution” within the meaning of Section 12.04(b).
In no event shall the Conversion Ratio be decreased pursuant to this Section 12.04(c).
(d)    If any cash dividend or distribution is made to all or substantially all holders of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock, the applicable Conversion Ratio shall be increased based on the following formula:
CR = CR0
x
    SP0      
SP
0 – C

where
CR0 
=    the applicable Conversion Ratio in effect immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution;
CR
=    the applicable Conversion Ratio 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 Common Stock 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 pays or distributes to holders of its Common Stock.
Such adjustment shall become effective immediately after the opening of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution; provided that if “C” as set forth above is equal to or greater than “SP0” as set forth above, in lieu of the foregoing adjustment, each Noteholder shall receive, for each $200,000 principal amount of Notes, at the same time and upon the same terms, the amount of cash such holder would have received had such holder owned a number of shares equal to the Conversion Ratio on the Record Date for such distribution. If such dividend or distribution is not so paid or made, the Conversion Ratio shall again be adjusted to be the Conversion Ratio that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared.
In no event shall the Conversion Ratio be decreased pursuant to this Section 12.04(d).
(e)    If (i) the Company or any of its Subsidiaries makes a payment in respect of a tender offer or exchange offer for the Common Stock, and (ii) the cash and value of any other consideration included in the payment per share of the Common Stock exceeds the arithmetic average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock over the ten 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 “Expiration Date”), the Conversion Ratio shall be increased based on the following formula:
CR = CR0
x
AC + (SP x OS) 
OS
0 x SP

where
CR0 
=    the applicable Conversion Ratio in effect immediately prior to the open of business on the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Date;
CR
=    the applicable Conversion Ratio in effect immediately after the open of business on the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Date;
AC
=    the aggregate value of all cash and any other consideration (as determined by the Board of Directors) paid or payable for shares of Common Stock purchased in such tender or exchange offer;
OS0
=    the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the time (the “Expiration Time”) such tender or exchange offer expires (prior to giving effect to such tender offer or exchange offer);
OS
=     the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after the Expiration Time (after giving effect to such tender offer or exchange offer); and
SP
=     the arithmetic average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of Common Stock over the ten consecutive Trading Day period commencing on, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Date.
Such adjustment under this Section 12.04(e) shall become effective at the opening of business on the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Date. If the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Date is less than ten consecutive Trading Days prior to, and including, the end of the Calculation Period in respect of any conversion, references within this Section 12.04(e) to ten consecutive Trading Day period shall be deemed replaced, for purposes of calculating the affected daily Conversion Ratios in respect of that conversion, with such lesser number of Trading Days as have elapsed from, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Date to, and including, the last Trading Day of such Calculation Period.
For purposes of determining the applicable Conversion Ratio, in respect of any conversion during the ten consecutive Trading Day period commencing on the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Date, references within this Section 12.04(e) to ten consecutive Trading Days period 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 to, but excluding, the Conversion Date for such conversion. If the Company is obligated to purchase shares pursuant to any such tender or exchange offer, but the Company is permanently prevented by applicable law from effecting any or all or any portion of such purchases or all such purchases are rescinded, the Conversion Ratio shall again be adjusted to be the Conversion Ratio that would then be in effect if such tender or exchange offer had not been made or had been made only in respect of the purchases that had been effected.
In no event shall the Conversion Ratio be decreased pursuant to this Section 12.04(e).
(f)    The term “Record Date” shall mean, with respect to any dividend, distribution or other transaction or event in which the holders of Common Stock (or other security) have the right to receive any cash, securities or other property or in which the Common Stock (or other applicable security) is exchanged for or converted into any combination of cash, securities or other property, the date fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to receive such cash, securities or other property (whether such date is fixed by the Board of Directors or by statute, contract or otherwise).
(g)    Notwithstanding this Section 12.04 or any other provision of this Indenture or the Notes, if any Conversion Ratio adjustment becomes effective, or any Ex-Dividend Date for any issuance, dividend or distribution (relating to a required Conversion Ratio adjustment) occurs, during the period beginning on, and including, the open of business on a Conversion Date and ending on the close of business on the last Trading Day of a related Calculation Period, the Calculation Agent shall make adjustments to the Conversion Ratio and the amount of cash payable upon conversion of the Notes, as the case may be, as are necessary or appropriate to effect the intent of this Section 12.04 and the other provisions of this Article 12 and to avoid unjust or inequitable results. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 12.04(g) shall apply in lieu of the adjustment or other term that would otherwise be applicable.
(h)    In addition to those required by clauses (a), (b), (c), (d) and (e) of this Section 12.04, and to the extent permitted by applicable law and subject to the applicable rules of the Relevant Exchange, the Company from time to time may increase the Conversion Ratio by any amount for a period of at least twenty Business Days if the Board of Directors determines that such increase would be in the Company’s best interest. In addition, the Company may also (but is not required to) increase the Conversion Ratio to avoid or diminish any income tax to holders of Common Stock or rights to purchase Common Stock in connection with any dividend or distribution of shares (or rights to acquire shares) or similar event. Whenever the Conversion Ratio is increased pursuant to the preceding sentence, the Company shall give notice of the increase to all Noteholders at least fifteen days prior to the date the increased Conversion Ratio takes effect, and such notice shall state the increased Conversion Ratio and the period during which it will be in effect.
(i)    No adjustment to the applicable Conversion Ratio is required: (i) upon the issuance of any shares of the Common Stock 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 shares of the Common Stock under any plan; (ii) upon the issuance of any shares of the Common Stock or options or rights to purchase those 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; (iii) upon the issuance of any shares of the Common Stock pursuant to any option, warrant, right or exercisable, exchangeable or convertible security not described in clause (ii) of this subsection and outstanding as of the date the Notes were first issued; (iv) for a change in the par value of the Common Stock; (v) for accrued and unpaid interest; or (vi) for any transactions described in this Section 12.04 if Noteholders participate (as a result of holding the Notes, and at the same time as holders of Common Stock participate) in such transactions as if such Noteholders held a number shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion Ratio at the time such adjustment would be required, multiplied by the principal amount (expressed in thousands) of Notes held by such Noteholder, without having to convert their Notes.
(j)    All calculations and other determinations under this Article 12 shall be made by the Calculation Agent and shall be made to the nearest one-ten thousandth (1/10,000) of a share.
(k)    No adjustment to the Conversion Ratio will be made if the adjustment would result in a change in the Conversion Ratio of less than 1%;. However, any adjustments that are less than 1% of the Conversion Ratio shall be carried forward and made, regardless of whether the aggregate adjustment is less than 1%, (i) upon any conversion of Notes, and (ii) on each Trading Day of any Calculation Period.
(l)    Whenever the Conversion Ratio is adjusted as herein provided, the Company shall promptly file with the Trustee and any Conversion Agent an Officers’ Certificate setting forth the Conversion Ratio 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 Ratio and may assume without inquiry that the last Conversion Ratio 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 Ratio setting forth the adjusted Conversion Ratio and the date on which each adjustment becomes effective and shall give notice of such adjustment of the Conversion Ratio to all Noteholders within ten days of the effective date of such adjustment. Failure to deliver such notice shall not affect the legality or validity of any such adjustment.
(m)    For purposes of this Section 12.04, the number of shares of Company Stock at any time outstanding shall not include shares of Common Stock held in the treasury of the Company so long as the Company does not vote or pay any dividend or make any distribution on shares of Common Stock held in the treasury of the Company.
SECTION 12.05.    Effect of Reclassification, Consolidation, Merger or Sale. Upon the occurrence of (i) any reclassification or change of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (other than a change in par value, or from par value to no par value, or from no par value to par value, or as a result of a split, subdivision or combination covered by Section 12.04(a)), (ii) any consolidation, merger, combination, split-off or binding share exchange involving the Company, or (iii) any sale or conveyance of all or substantially all of the property and assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, to any other Person, in each case as a result of which holders of the Common Stock shall be entitled to receive cash, securities or other property or assets (the “Reference Property”) with respect to or in exchange for such Common Stock (any such event a “Merger Event”), then:
(d)    The Company or the successor or purchasing Person, as the case may be, shall execute with the Trustee a supplemental indenture permitted under Section 9.01 providing for the conversion and settlement of the Notes as set forth in this Indenture. Such supplemental indenture shall provide for adjustments that shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Article 12. If, in the case of any Merger Event, the Reference Property includes shares of stock, other securities or other property or assets of a corporation 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 corporation and shall contain such additional provisions to protect the interests of the holders of the Notes as the Board of Directors shall reasonably consider necessary by reason of the foregoing, including to the extent practicable the provisions providing for the repurchase rights set forth in Article 13 herein.
In the event the Company shall execute a supplemental indenture pursuant to this Section 12.05, the Company shall promptly file with the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate briefly stating the reasons therefor, the kind or amount of securities or property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) that will comprise the Reference Property after any such Merger Event, any adjustment to be made with respect thereto and that all conditions precedent have been complied with. The Company shall cause notice of the execution of such supplemental indenture to be given to all Noteholders within twenty days after execution thereof. Failure to deliver such notice shall not affect the legality or validity of such supplemental indenture.
(e)    Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 12.02(b), and subject to the provisions of Section 12.01 and Section 12.03, at and after the effective time of such Merger Event, (i) the Cash Settlement Amount shall be based upon Reference Property consisting of 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 shares of the Common Stock equal to the Conversion Ratio immediately prior to such Merger Event would have owned or been entitled to receive upon such transaction (subject to Section 12.02), and (ii) the related Conversion Obligation shall be settled as set forth under clause (d) below, it being understood and agreed that for purposes of Section 12.01(b), references therein to “the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Stock” shall be deemed at and after the effective time of such Merger Event to be references to “the Last Reported Sale Price of a unit of Reference Property comprised of the kind and amount of shares of stock, securities or other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) that a holder of one share of Common Stock immediately prior to such Merger Event would have owned or been entitled to receive based on the Weighted Average Consideration” and references therein to “the Daily VWAP of the Common Stock” shall be deemed at and after the effective time of such Merger Event to be references to “the Daily VWAP of a unit of Reference Property comprised of the kind and amount of shares of stock, securities or other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) that a holder of one share of Common Stock immediately prior to such Merger Event would have owned or been entitled to receive based on the Weighted Average Consideration.” The Company shall not become a party to any Merger Event unless its terms are consistent with this Section 12.05. None of the foregoing provisions shall affect the right of a holder of Notes to convert its Notes into cash, as set forth in Section 12.01 and Section 12.02 prior to the effective date of such Merger Event.
(f)    With respect to each $200,000 principal amount of Notes surrendered for conversion after the effective date of any such Merger Event, the Company’s Conversion Obligation shall be settled in cash in accordance with Section 12.02(a) as follows:
(A)    the Company shall pay to the converting Noteholder cash in an amount, per $200,000 principal amount of Notes equal to the sum, as determined by the Calculation Agent, of the Daily Cash Settlement Amounts for each of the 50 consecutive Trading Days during the related Calculation Period, such Daily Cash Settlement Amounts determined as if the reference to “the Daily VWAP of the Common Stock” in the definition thereof were instead a reference to “the Daily VWAP of a unit of Reference Property comprised of the kind and amount of shares of stock, securities or other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) that a holder of one share of Common Stock immediately prior to such Merger Event would have owned or been entitled to receive based on the Weighted Average Consideration”;
(B)    The Daily Cash Settlement Amounts shall be determined by the Calculation Agent promptly following the last day of the Calculation Period.
(C)    For purposes of this Section 12.05, the “Weighted Average Consideration” shall mean the weighted average, as determined by the Calculation Agent, of the types and amounts of consideration received by the holders of the Common Stock entitled to receive cash, securities or other property or assets with respect to or in exchange for such Common Stock in any Merger Event who affirmatively make such an election.
(D)    The Company shall notify the holders of the Notes of the Weighted Average Consideration as soon as practicable after the Weighted Average Consideration is determined.
(g)    The above provisions of this Section shall similarly apply to successive Merger Events.
SECTION 12.06.    Responsibility of Trustee; Conversion Agent. Neither the Trustee nor any Conversion Agent shall at any time be under any duty or responsibility to any Noteholder to determine the Conversion Ratio (or any adjustment thereto) or whether any facts exist that may require any adjustment (including any increase) of the Conversion Ratio, 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. Neither the Trustee nor any Conversion Agent shall be accountable with respect to the amount of any cash that may at any time be issued or delivered upon the conversion of any Note; and neither the Trustee nor any Conversion Agent makes any representations with respect thereto. Neither the Trustee nor any Conversion Agent shall be responsible for any failure of the Company to pay any 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 12.05 relating to the amount of cash receivable by Noteholders upon the conversion of their Notes after any event referred to in such Section 12.05 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 12.01(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 12.01(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 12.01(b).
SECTION 12.07.    Notice to Noteholders Prior to Certain Actions. In case of any:
(a)    action by the Company or one of its Subsidiaries that would require an adjustment in the Conversion Ratio pursuant to Section 12.04 or 12.08; or
(b)    Merger Event; or
(c)    voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding-up of the Company;
the Company shall cause to be filed with the Trustee and given to all Noteholders as promptly as possible but in any event at least twenty 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 or in respect of the Company or one of its Subsidiaries, or, if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of Common Stock of record 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 Common Stock of record shall be entitled to exchange their Common Stock 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 12.08.    Stockholder Rights Plans. To the extent that the Company shall have a stockholder rights plan or another rights plan in effect in the future, if prior to the time of conversion, rights have separated from the shares of Common Stock in accordance with the provisions of the applicable stockholder rights agreement, the Conversion Ratio will be adjusted at the time of separation as if the Company has distributed to all holders of Common Stock, shares of the Company’s Capital Stock, evidence of indebtedness or assets or property as provided in Section 12.04(c), subject to readjustment in the event of the expiration, termination or redemption of such rights.
ARTICLE 13
REPURCHASE OF NOTES AT OPTION OF HOLDERS
SECTION 13.01.    Repurchase at Option of Noteholders upon a Fundamental Change. (1) If there shall occur a Fundamental Change at any time prior to the Maturity Date, then each Noteholder 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 thereof that is an integral multiple of $200,000 principal amount, on the date (the “Fundamental Change Repurchase Date”) specified by the Company that is not less than twenty Business Days and not more than thirty-five Business Days after the date of the Fundamental Change Company Notice (as defined below) at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date (the “Fundamental Change Repurchase Price”), unless the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date is after an Interest Record Date and on or prior to the related Interest Payment Date, in which case interest accrued to the Interest Payment Date will be paid to holders of the Notes as of the preceding Interest Record Date and the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price payable to the holder surrendering the Note for repurchase pursuant to this Article 13 shall be equal to 100% of the principal amount of Notes subject to repurchase and will not include any accrued and unpaid interest. A Noteholder may require repurchase of a portion (less than all) of its Notes only if the Notes the Noteholder retains are in a Permitted Denomination. Repurchases of Notes under this Section 13.01 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 on the reverse of the Note as Exhibit D thereto on or prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date; and
(ii)    delivery or book-entry transfer of the Notes to the Paying Agent at any time after delivery of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice (together with all necessary endorsements) at the office of the Paying Agent, such delivery being a condition to receipt by the holder of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price therefor; provided that such Fundamental Change Repurchase Price shall be so paid pursuant to this Section 13.01 only if the Note so delivered to the Paying Agent shall conform in all respects to the description thereof in the related Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice.
The Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice shall state:
(A)    if certificated, the certificate numbers of Notes to be delivered for repurchase;
(B)    the portion of the principal amount of Notes to be repurchased, which must be $200,000 or an integral multiple thereof; and
(C)    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 not in certificated form, the Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice must comply with the Applicable Procedures and the Paying Agent must receive such notice.
Any repurchase by the Company contemplated pursuant to the provisions of this Section 13.01 shall be consummated by the payment of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price pursuant to Section 13.03(a).
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any holder delivering to the Paying Agent the Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice contemplated by this Section 13.01 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 Business Day immediately preceding the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date in accordance with Section 13.02.
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.
(f)    On, or within the twenty calendar days after, the occurrence of the effective date of a Fundamental Change, the Company shall give notice to all Noteholders (the “Fundamental Change Company Notice”) of the occurrence of, and the effective date of, the Fundamental Change and of the repurchase right at the option of the holders arising as a result thereof. The Company shall also deliver a copy of the Fundamental Change Company Notice to the Trustee, the Paying Agent and the Conversion Agent within five Business Days after the effective date of the Fundamental Change. Each Fundamental Change Company Notice shall specify:
(i)    the events causing the Fundamental Change;
(ii)    the effective date of the Fundamental Change, and whether the Fundamental Change is a Make-Whole Fundamental Change, in which case the effective date of the Make-Whole Fundamental Change;
(iii)    the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price;
(iv)    the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date;
(v)    that the holder must exercise the repurchase right on or prior to the close of business on the fifth Business Day immediately preceding the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date (the “Fundamental Change Expiration Time”);
(vi)    if applicable, the name and address of the Paying Agent and the Conversion Agent;
(vii)    if applicable, the applicable Conversion Ratio, and any adjustments to the applicable Conversion Ratio;
(viii)    if applicable, 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 withdraws the Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice in accordance with the terms of this Indenture;
(ix)    that the holder shall have the right to withdraw any Notes surrendered prior to the Fundamental Change Expiration Time; and
(x)    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 Noteholders’ repurchase rights or affect the validity of the proceedings for the repurchase of the Notes pursuant to this Section 13.01.
(g)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Notes may be repurchased by the Company 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 the Fundamental Change Repurchase 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).
(h)    In connection with any purchase offer, the Company will:
(v)    comply with the provisions of Rule 13e-4, Rule 14e-1 and any other tender offer rules under the Exchange Act, if required under the Exchange Act and if the Exchange Act is applicable,
(vi)    file a Schedule TO or any successor or similar schedule, if required under the Exchange Act and if the Exchange Act is applicable, and
(vii)    comply with any other applicable securities laws and regulations to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with any offer by the Company to purchase the Notes.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary provided in this Indenture, compliance by the Company with Rule 13e-4, Rule 14e-1 and any other tender offer rule under the Exchange Act in accordance with clause (i) above or with the provisions of any other applicable securities laws or regulations in accordance with clause (iii) above, to the extent inconsistent with any other provision of this Indenture, will not, standing alone, constitute an Event of Default solely as a result of compliance by the Company with such rules.
Notwithstanding the foregoing the Company shall not be required to repurchase the Notes in accordance with this Section 13.01 if a third party makes an offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in this Section 13.01 and purchases all Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn under such purchase offer.
SECTION 13.02.    Withdrawal of Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice. A Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice may be withdrawn by means of a written notice of withdrawal delivered to the Corporate Trust Office of the Paying Agent in accordance with this Section 13.02 at any time prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date, specifying:
(a)    the certificate number, if any, of the Note in respect of which such notice of withdrawal is being submitted, or the appropriate Common Depositary information if the Note in respect of which such notice of withdrawal is being submitted is represented by a Global Note,
(b)    the principal amount of the Note with respect to which such notice of withdrawal is being submitted, and
(c)    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 $200,000 or an integral multiple thereof;
provided, however, that if the Notes are not in certificated form, the withdrawal notice must comply with Applicable Procedures and the Paying Agent must receive such notice.
SECTION 13.03.    Deposit of Fundamental Change Repurchase Price. (1) The Company will deposit with the Paying Agent no later than 10:00 a.m. London time one Business Day prior to the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date an amount of cash 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 Paying Agent, payment for Notes surrendered for repurchase (and not withdrawn prior to the Fundamental Change Expiration Time) will be made by the Paying Agent on the later of (i) the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date with respect to such Note (provided the holder has satisfied the conditions in Section 13.01) and (ii) the time of book-entry transfer or the delivery of such Note to the Paying Agent by the holder thereof in the manner required by Section 13.01 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 Common Depositary shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of the Common Depositary or its nominee. 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 Fundamental Change Repurchase Price.
(n)    If by 10:00 a.m. London time one Business Day prior to the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date, the Paying Agent holds money sufficient to make payment on all the Notes or portions thereof that are to be repurchased as a result of the corresponding Fundamental Change, then (i) such Notes will cease to be outstanding, (ii) interest will cease to accrue on such Notes on and after the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date, and (iii) all other rights of the holders of such Notes will terminate (other than the right to receive the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, and previously accrued but unpaid interest upon delivery of the Notes), whether or not book-entry transfer of the Notes has been made or the Notes have been delivered to the Paying Agent. If any Note surrendered for repurchase is not paid on the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date because of the failure of the Company to comply with this Section 13.03, interest shall be paid on the overdue principal (and on overdue accrued and unpaid interest, if any (to the extent that payment of such interest is enforceable under applicable law)) at the rate provided in the Notes.
(o)    Upon surrender of a Note that is to be repurchased in part pursuant to Section 13.01, the Company shall execute and the Trustee or any Authentication Agent shall, upon receipt of a Company Order, 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.

ARTICLE 14
REDEMPTION AT THE OPTION OF THE COMPANY
SECTION 14.01.    Right of Redemption. The Company may redeem the Notes in whole, but not in part, upon giving not less than 30 nor more than 60 calendar days prior written notice to the Holders, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of Notes to be redeemed, together with accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon to, but excluding, the date set for the redemption of the Notes (the “Redemption Date”) (subject to the rights of Noteholders on the relevant Interest Record Date to receive interest on the relevant Interest Payment Date) if 20% or less of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes originally issued under this Indenture remain outstanding.

(iv)    the place or places where such Notes are to be surrendered for payment of the redemption price;
(v)    that Noteholders have a right to convert the Notes called for redemption upon satisfaction of the requirements set forth in the Indenture;

For the avoidance of doubt, the Paying Agent and the Trustee shall be held harmless and have no liability with respect to payments or disbursements to be made by the Paying Agent and Trustee (i) for which payment instructions are not made or that are not otherwise deposited by the respective times set forth in this Section 14.04, and (ii) until they have confirmed receipt of funds sufficient to make the relevant payment.

Any Authentication Agent may at any time resign by giving written notice of resignation to the Trustee and to the Company.

EACH OF THE COMPANY AND THE TRUSTEE HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS INDENTURE, THE NOTES OR THE TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

The Trustee will forward the Calculation Agent’s calculations to any Noteholder upon the request of that Noteholder. The Company shall procure that there will at all times be a Calculation Agent. The Calculation Agent may, subject to the provisions of any calculation agency agreement appointing the Calculation Agent, consult, at the expense of the Issuer, on any matter (including but not limited to, any legal matter), with any legal or other professional adviser it deems necessary and may rely upon any advice so obtained, and it shall not be liable and shall not incur any liability to the Company, the Trustee or the Noteholders in respect of anything done, or omitted to be done, relating to that matter in good faith in accordance with that adviser’s opinion. The Company is entitled to appoint an alternative financial advisor with appropriate expertise as the Calculation Agent. Furthermore, the Company is entitled to terminate the appointment of the Calculation Agent. In the event of such termination or the Calculation Agent being unable or unwilling to continue to act in such capacity, the Company shall appoint another reputable institution that customarily serves in such capacities as the Calculation Agent. Each Noteholder, the Trustee and the Conversion Agent shall be sent written notice of the details of any such appointment or termination without undue delay.
