If such distribution is not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall be decreased, effective as of the date the Board determines not to pay the distribution, to be the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such distribution had not been declared. Notwithstanding the foregoing (but subject to the limitations set forth in Section 11), if “FMV” (as defined above) is equal to or greater than “SP0” (as defined above), in lieu of the foregoing increase, each Holder of Preferred Stock shall receive, for each share of Preferred Stock, at the same time and upon the same terms as holders of the Common Stock, the amount and kind of Distributed Property that such Holder would have received as if such Holder owned a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate (determined without regard to the Conversion Cap, Beneficial Ownership Limitation or the Permitted Percentage Limitation) in effect on the Record Date for the distribution. With respect to an adjustment pursuant to this Section 8(e)(iii) where there has been a payment of a dividend or other distribution on the Common Stock consisting solely of shares of Capital Stock of any class or series, or similar equity interests, of or relating to a Subsidiary or other business unit of the Corporation where such Capital Stock or similar equity interest is, or will be when issued, listed or admitted for trading on a U.S. national securities exchange (a “Spin-Off”), the Conversion Rate will be increased based on the following formula: w

(4) In case the Company shall, by dividend or otherwise, distribute to all holders of its Common Stock evidences of its indebtedness, shares of any class of capital stock, or other property (including securities, but excluding (i) any rights, options or warrants referred to in paragraph (2) of this SECTION 2(B), (ii) any dividend or distribution paid exclusively in cash, (iii) any dividend or distribution referred to in paragraph (1) of this SECTION 2(B) and (iv) any merger or consolidation to which SECTION 2(H) applies (the "DISTRIBUTED PROPERTY"), the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted so that the same shall equal the rate determined by dividing the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding Determination Date for such distribution by a fraction of which the final maturity date numerator shall be the current market price per share (determined as provided in paragraph (7) of this SECTION 2(B)) of the NotesCommon Stock on such Determination Date less the then fair market value (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company in accordance with the provisions of this paragraph 4 of SECTION 2(B)) of the portion of the assets, shares or evidences of indebtedness so distributed applicable to one share of Common Stock and the denominator shall be such current market price per share of the Common Stock, such adjustment to become effective immediately prior to the opening of business on the day following such Determination Date; provided, however, that if the Distributed Property consists of shares of capital stock of a Subsidiary, the Company may, at its option and in lieu of the foregoing adjustment to the Conversion Rate, elect to make adequate provision so that the holder of this Security shall have the right to receive upon conversion the amount of such shares of capital stock that such holder of this Security would have received if such holder of this Security had converted such Security on the record date. Upon surrendering If the Board of Directors determines the fair market value of any Note distribution for purposes of this paragraph (4) by reference to the actual or when issued trading market for any securities constituting such distribution, it must in doing so consider the prices in such market over the same period used in computing the current market price per share pursuant to paragraph (7) of this SECTION 2(B).

Such supplemental indenture shall provide for adjustments of the Conversion Rate and Conversion Price which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments of the Conversion Rate and Conversion Price provided for in Article 4 of the Indenture.

The "trading price" of the Securities on any date of determination means the average of the secondary market bid quotations per Security obtained by the Conversion Agent for $10,000,000 principal amount at maturity of the Securities at approximately 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on such determination date from three independent nationally recognized securities dealers selected by the Company; provided that if at least three such bids cannot reasonably be obtained by the Conversion Agent, but two such bids are obtained, then the average of the two bids shall be used, and if only one such bid can reasonably be obtained by the Conversion Agent, this one bid shall be used; and provided further that if there are different secondary market quotations for Securities that have been resold in transactions registered under any registration statement filed with the provisions of Article 4 Commission (as defined in the Indenture) and Securities that have been resold pursuant to the exemption from registration under the Securities Act provided by Rule 144 thereunder, the "trading price" of the Indenture, at Securities will be determined based on the option higher of the Holder thereof, any portion two sets of market quotations.

For the purposes of the immediately preceding paragraph, the term "nine consecutive trading day period" means any nine consecutive trading days during which the Conversion RateAgent determines the trading price of the Securities; provided that the Conversion Agent shall have no obligation to determine the trading price of the Securities unless requested by the Company; and provided further that the Company shall have no obligation to make such request unless a Holder provides the Company with reasonable evidence that the trading price of the Securities would be less than 95% of the product of the Closing Sales Price of the Parent Common Stock multiplied by the number of shares into which a Security is convertible; and at which time, determined as provided in the Indenture, in effect Company shall instruct the Conversion Agent to determine the trading price of the Securities beginning on the next trading day and on each successive trading day until the trading price is greater than or equal to 95% of the product of the Closing Sales Price of the Parent Common Stock and the number of shares into which a Security is convertible. If at the time of conversion pursuant to the second paragraph of this Paragraph 7 the Closing Sales Price of Parent Common Stock is greater than 100% of the Accreted Conversion Price but equal to or less than the Applicable Percentage of the Accreted Conversion Price, then the Holders will receive, in lieu of shares of Parent Common Stock based on the applicable Conversion Rate, at the Company's option, cash or shares of Parent Common Stock, or a combination of both cash and shares, with a value equal to the Accreted Principal Amount of the Securities on the Conversion Date ("Accreted Value Conversion"). If there is an Accreted Value Conversion, the shares of Parent Common Stock will be valued at the average Closing Sales Price for the five trading days ending on the third trading day prior to the date of conversion. The If the Company elects to pay all or a portion of the Accreted Principal Amount upon an Accreted Value Conversion in shares of Parent Common Stock, the Company will notify holders not less than nine trading days prior to the beginning of the five Business Day period in which Holders can convert their Securities pursuant to an Accreted Value Conversion. A Holder may also surrender Notes for conversion a Security or portion of a Security which has been called for redemption pursuant to Paragraph 5 hereof, even if the foregoing provisions have not been satisfied. Such Securities may be surrendered for conversion at the applicable Conversion Rate at any time after the Exchange Offer Completion Date following receipt of a notice of redemption until the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding prior to the final maturity Redemption Date.
