Convertible at any time prior to maturity at the holder’s option, at an initial conversion rate, which is subject to adjustment, of 74.0741 shares per $1,000 principal amount, representing an initial conversion price of approximately $13.50 per share. In the event of a cash dividend to all or substantially all holders of our common stock, the conversion rate shall be increased by multiplying the conversion rate in effect immediately prior to the ex-dividend date for such distribution by a fraction, (a) the numerator shall be the current market price of our common stock on the ex-dividend date; and (b) the denominator shall be the current market price of our common stock on the ex-dividend date less the amount by which the dividend per share exceeds $0.025. No adjustment in the conversion rate shall be required unless such adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least one percent in such rate; provided that any such adjustments that are not required to be made shall be carried forward and such carry-forward adjustments shall be made, regardless of whether the aggregate adjustment is less than one percent at the end of each fiscal year, or in certain other circumstances. The conversion price per share is $1,000 divided by the conversion rate, and will change upon a change in the conversion rate. If a holder elects to convert its debentures, deferred interest owed on the debentures being converted is also converted into shares of our common stock. The conversion rate for any deferred interest is based on the average price that our shares traded at during a 5-day period immediately prior to the election to convert. In lieu of issuing shares of common stock upon conversion of the debentures, we may, at our option, make a cash payment to converting holders for all or some of the shares of our common stock otherwise issuable upon conversion.
