(1) the terms defined in this Article have the meanings assigned to them in this Article and include the plural as well as the singular;

(2) all accounting terms not otherwise defined herein have the meanings assigned to them in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States prevailing at the time of any relevant computation hereunder; and

ARTICLE II
THE NOTES

SECTION 2.1 FORM AND DATING.

(a) The Notes shall be known and designated as the “3.625% Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes due 2025” of the Issuer. The aggregate principal amount of the Notes which may be authenticated and delivered under this Indenture shall initially be limited to $66,581,000, but may be reopened at any time and from time to time for the issuance of additional Notes, which Notes shall have identical terms except that such additional Notes may have different initial issuance prices and first interest payment dates.

(b) The Notes shall mature on March 15, 2025 (the “Maturity Date”).

(c) Interest shall accrue at a rate of 3.625% per annum on the principal amount of the Notes calculated from March 15, 2009 or from the most recent date to which interest has been paid until March 15, 2015 and thereafter interest shall accrue at a rate of 3.125% per annum on the principal amount of the Notes until the principal of the Notes is paid or made available for payment pursuant to the terms of this Indenture. Interest shall be payable semiannually in arrears on March 15 and September 15 in each year, commencing September 15, 2009.

Interest on the Notes shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months, and, in the case of a partial month, the actual number of days elapsed.

Except as provided in the next succeeding paragraph, a Holder of any Note shall not be entitled to receive any interest [(including Additional Interest, if any)] that has accrued on such Note if such Note is converted into Common Shares on any day other than an Interest Payment Date. By delivering to the Holder of any Note that is converted into Common Shares the number of shares issuable upon conversion, together with a cash payment, if any, in lieu of a fractional share, the Issuer and the Company shall be deemed to have satisfied their obligation with respect to such Note. Accordingly, accrued but unpaid interest shall be deemed to be paid in full rather than canceled, extinguished or forfeited.

If a Holder of any Note converts such Note after a Regular Record Date but prior to the corresponding Interest Payment Date, the Holder of record on such Regular Record Date shall be entitled to receive on the Interest Payment Date interest accrued [(including Additional Interest, if any)] and paid on such Note, notwithstanding the conversion of such Note prior to such Interest Payment Date. However, at the time such Holder surrenders such Note for conversion, such Holder shall pay the Issuer an amount equal to the interest [(including Additional Interest, if any)] that will be paid on the Notes being converted on the Interest Payment Date. However, in the event that (i) overdue interest, if any, exists at the time of conversion with respect to such Note or (ii) the Issuer calls any Notes for redemption or a Holder exercises its Designated Event Repurchase Right for a Note on a Redemption Date or Designated Event Repurchase Date that is after a Record Date for an interest payment but prior to the corresponding Interest Payment Date, and prior to such Redemption Date or Repurchase Date a Holder of any Note chooses to convert such Note, then such Holder shall not be required to pay

the Issuer at the time such Holder surrenders such Note for conversion the amount of interest on such Note such Holder shall be entitled to receive on the date that has been fixed for redemption if such Holder’s conversion right would terminate because of the redemption or repurchase between the Regular Record Date and the close of business on the second Business Day following the next succeeding Interest Payment Date. Accrued but unpaid interest will be payable upon any conversion of Notes made concurrently with or after acceleration of the Notes following an Event of Default.

Principal of, and premium, if any, and interest on, Global Notes shall be payable to the Depositary in immediately available funds.

Principal and premium, if any, and interest on maturity, on Physical Notes shall be payable at the office or agency of the Issuer maintained for such purpose, initially the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee. Interest on Physical Notes (other than at maturity) will be payable by (i) U.S. Dollar check drawn on a bank in The City of New York mailed to the address of the Holder, or (ii) upon application to the Registrar not later than the relevant Record Date by a Holder, of an aggregate principal amount in excess of $5,000,000, wire transfer in immediately available funds.

(d) The Notes shall be guaranteed as to payment and performance of conversion rights by the Company as provided in Article III; provided that nothing herein shall require the Note Guarantee to be endorsed on any Note and the failure to so endorse a Note Guarantee thereon shall not impair the validity or enforceability of the Note Guarantee with respect to any such Note.

(e) The Notes and the Trustee’s certificate of authentication shall be substantially in the form set forth in EXHIBIT A, which is incorporated in and forms a part of this Indenture. The Notes may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange rule or usage. Each Note shall be dated the date of its authentication.

(f) The Notes are being offered and sold in reliance on [Section 3(a)(9) of][Rule 144A under] the Securities Act and shall be issued initially in the form of one or more Global Notes, substantially in the form set forth in EXHIBIT A (the “Global Note”), deposited with the Trustee, as custodian for the Depositary, duly executed by the Company and authenticated by the Trustee as hereinafter provided and bearing the legends set forth in EXHIBITS B-1 and B-3. The aggregate principal amount of the Global Note may from time to time be increased or decreased by adjustments made on the records of the Trustee, as custodian for the Depositary, as hereinafter provided, subject to the limitations provided in Section 2.1(a) hereof on the aggregate principal amount of the Global Note or Notes.

(g) Notes issued in exchange for interests in a Global Note pursuant to Section 2.15 may be issued in the form of permanent certificated Notes in registered form in substantially the form set forth in EXHIBIT A (the “Physical Notes”) and, if applicable, bearing any legends required by Section 2.17.

SECTION 2.2 EXECUTION AND AUTHENTICATION.

(a) One Officer of the Issuer shall sign the Notes for the Issuer by manual or facsimile signature.

(b) If an Officer of the Issuer whose signature is on a Note no longer holds that office at the time the Note is authenticated, the Note shall nevertheless be valid.

(c) A Note shall not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of the Trustee. The signature shall be conclusive evidence that the Note has been authenticated under this Indenture.

(d) Upon an Order of the Issuer signed by one Officer of the Issuer, the Trustee shall authenticate Notes for original issue in the aggregate principal amount of $66,581,000, as shall be adjusted pursuant to the next sentence of this Section 2.2(d). Upon receipt by the Trustee of an Officer’s Certificate of the Issuer requesting the Trustee to authenticate and deliver additional Notes, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver such specified principal amount of additional Notes to or upon the Order of the Issuer signed as provided in the immediately preceding sentence. Such Officers’ Certificate of the Issuer must be received by the Trustee not later than the proposed date for delivery of such additional Notes.

(e) [Upon an Order of the Issuer signed by two Officers of the Issuer, the Trustee shall authenticate Notes not bearing the Restrictive Securities Legend to be issued to the transferee when sold pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act as set forth in Section 2.16(c) hereof.]

(f) The Trustee shall act as the initial authenticating agent. Thereafter, the Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent acceptable to the Issuer to authenticate Notes. An authenticating agent may authenticate Notes whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the Trustee includes authentication by such authenticating agent. An authenticating agent has the same rights as an Agent to deal with the Issuer and its Affiliates.

(g) The Notes shall be issuable only in registered form without interest coupons and only in denominations of $1,000 principal amount and any positive integral multiple thereof.

SECTION 2.3 REGISTRAR, PAYING AGENT AND CONVERSION AGENT.

(a) The Issuer shall maintain an office or agency where Notes may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange (“Registrar”), an office or agency where Notes may be presented for payment (“Paying Agent”) and an office or agency where Notes may be presented for conversion (“Conversion Agent”). The Registrar shall keep a register of the Notes and of their transfer and exchange. The Issuer may appoint or change one or more co-registrars, one or more additional paying agents and one or more additional conversion agents without notice and may act in any such capacity on its own behalf. The term “Registrar” includes any co-registrar; the term “Paying Agent” includes any additional paying agent; and the term “Conversion Agent” includes any additional conversion agent.

(b) The Issuer shall enter into an appropriate agency agreement with any Agent not a party to this Indenture. The agreement shall implement the provisions of this Indenture that relate to such Agent. The Issuer shall notify the Trustee of the name and address of any Agent not a party to this Indenture. If the Issuer fails to maintain a Registrar, Paying Agent or Conversion Agent, the Trustee shall act as such. The Issuer or any Affiliate of the Issuer may act as Paying Agent.

SECTION 2.4 PAYING AGENT TO HOLD MONEY IN TRUST.

Subject to Section 15.2, each Paying Agent shall hold in trust for the benefit of the Holders or the Trustee all moneys held by the Paying Agent for the payment of the Notes, and shall notify the Trustee of any default by the Issuer in making any such payment. While any such default continues, the Trustee may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. The Issuer at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. Upon payment over to the Trustee, the Paying Agent shall have no further liability for the money. If the Issuer acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate and hold as a separate trust fund all money held by it as Paying Agent.

SECTION 2.5 HOLDER LISTS.

The Trustee shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of Holders (the “Register”). If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Issuer shall furnish to the Trustee on or before each interest payment date and at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing the Register.

SECTION 2.6 TRANSFER AND EXCHANGE.

(a) Subject to Sections 2.15 and 2.16 hereof, when Notes are presented to the Registrar with a request to register their transfer or to exchange them for an equal principal amount of Notes of other authorized denominations, the Registrar shall register the transfer or make the exchange if its requirements for such transaction are met. To permit registrations of transfer and exchanges, the Trustee shall authenticate Notes at the Registrar’s request. The Issuer or the Trustee, as the case may be, shall not be required (i) to issue, authenticate, register the transfer of or exchange any Note during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the mailing of a notice of redemption of the Notes selected for redemption under Article XII hereof and ending at the close of business on the day of such mailing or (ii) to register the transfer of or exchange any Note so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of Notes being redeemed in part.

(b) No service charge shall be made for any transfer, exchange or conversion of Notes, but the Issuer may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer, exchange or conversion of Notes, other than exchanges pursuant to Sections 2.10, 12.6, 13.1, 13.2 or 14.2 not involving any transfer.

SECTION 2.7 REPLACEMENT NOTES.

(a) If the Holder claims that the Note has been mutilated, lost, destroyed or stolen, the Issuer shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a replacement Note if the Trustee’s requirements are met and, in the case of a mutilated Note, such mutilated Note is surrendered to the Trustee. In the case of lost, destroyed or stolen Notes, if required by the Trustee, an indemnity bond must be provided by the Holder that is sufficient in the judgment of the Trustee to protect the Issuer, the Trustee or any Agent from any loss which any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced. The Issuer may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation to replacing a Note and any other reasonable expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of the Trustee) in connection therewith.

(b) In case any such mutilated, lost, destroyed or stolen Note has become or is about to become due and payable, the Issuer in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Note, pay such Note when due.

SECTION 2.8 OUTSTANDING NOTES.

(a) The Notes outstanding at any time are all the Notes authenticated by the Trustee except for those converted, those cancelled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation and those described in this Section 2.8(a) as not outstanding. Except to the extent provided in Section 2.9, a Note does not cease to be outstanding because the Issuer or one of its subsidiaries or Affiliates holds the Note.

(b) If a Note is replaced pursuant to Section 2.7, it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it, or a court holds, that the replaced Note is held by a protected purchaser, as that term is defined in the New York Uniform Commercial Code.

(c) If the Paying Agent (other than the Issuer or any Affiliate of the Issuer) holds on a Redemption Date, Repurchase Date or Maturity Date money sufficient to pay Notes payable on that date (or, if the Issuer acts as Paying Agent, if the Issuer has segregated and holds such money in trust in accordance with Section 2.4 hereof), then on and after that date, such Notes shall be deemed to be no longer outstanding and interest on them shall cease to accrue, and such Note shall be deemed paid whether or not the Note is delivered to the Paying Agent. Thereafter, all other rights of the Holders of such Notes shall terminate with respect to such Notes, other than the right to receive the Redemption Price, Repurchase Price or principal amount, as applicable.

(d) If a Note is converted in accordance with Article XIV hereof, then from and after the time of conversion on the Conversion Date, such Note will cease to be outstanding, and interest, if any, will cease to accrue on such Note.

SECTION 2.9 NOTES HELD BY THE ISSUER OR AN AFFILIATE.

In determining whether the Holders of the required aggregate principal amount of Notes have concurred in any direction, waiver or consent, Notes owned by the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries or an Affiliate shall be considered as though not outstanding, except that for the purposes of determining whether a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, waiver or consent, only Notes which the Trustee knows are so owned shall be so disregarded.

SECTION 2.10 TEMPORARY NOTES.

If and to the extent the Issuer defaults in a payment of interest on the Notes, the Issuer shall pay the defaulted interest in any lawful manner plus, to the extent not prohibited by applicable statute or case law, interest payable on the defaulted interest at the rate provided in the Notes (the “Defaulted Interest”). The Issuer may pay the Defaulted Interest to the persons who are Holders on a subsequent special record date fixed by the Issuer (a “Defaulted Interest Special Record Date”). The Issuer shall fix such Defaulted Interest Special Record Date and payment date. At least 15 days before the Defaulted Interest Special Record Date, the Issuer shall mail to Holders a notice that states the Defaulted Interest Special Record Date, payment date and amount of interest to be paid.

SECTION 2.13 CUSIP NUMBERS.

The Issuer in issuing the Notes may use one or more “CUSIP” numbers, and if so, the Trustee shall use the CUSIP numbers in notices of redemption or exchange as a convenience to Holders; provided, however, that no representation is hereby deemed to be made by the Trustee as to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP numbers printed in the notice or on the Notes, and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes. The Issuer shall promptly notify the Trustee of any change in the CUSIP numbers.

SECTION 2.14 DEPOSIT OF MONEYS.

Prior to 11:00 A.M., New York City time, on each Interest Payment Date, Maturity Date, Redemption Date and Repurchase Date, the Issuer shall have deposited with a Paying Agent in immediately available funds money sufficient to make cash payments, if any, due on such Interest Payment Date, Maturity Date, Redemption Date and Repurchase Date, as the case may be, in a timely manner which permits the Paying Agent to remit payment to the Holders on such Interest Payment Date, Maturity Date, Redemption Date and Repurchase Date, as the case may be.

(c) In connection with the transfer of a Global Note in its entirety to beneficial owners pursuant to Section 2.15(b), such Global Note shall be deemed to be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation, and the Issuer shall execute, and the Trustee shall upon written instructions from the Issuer authenticate and deliver to each beneficial owner identified by the Depositary in exchange for its beneficial interest in such Global Note, an equal aggregate principal amount of Physical Notes of authorized denominations.

ARTICLE III
NOTE GUARANTEE

SECTION 3.1 NOTE GUARANTEE.

The Company hereby fully and unconditionally guarantees, as primary obligor and not merely as surety, to each Holder and the Trustee, the payment of principal and interest on the Notes and the Repurchase Price, if applicable, with respect to any Note (the “Obligations”) on an unsecured senior subordinated basis (the “Note Guarantee”). The Note Guarantee ranks junior to all existing and future Senior Debt of the Company. The Note Guarantee is effectively subordinated to all indebtedness and other liabilities of all Subsidiaries of the Company (other than the Issuer). Other than as set out above, the Note Guarantee ranks equally in right of payment with all of the Company’s other existing and future liabilities that are not secured or are not otherwise subordinated in favor of the Note Guarantee.

The Company waives presentation to, demand of payment from and protest to the Issuer of any of the Obligations and also waives notice of protest for nonpayment. The Company waives notice of any default under the Notes or the Obligations. The obligations of the Company hereunder shall not be affected by (a) the failure of any Holder or the Trustee to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against the Issuer or any other Person under this Indenture, the Notes or any other agreement or otherwise; (b) any extension or renewal of any thereof; (c) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of any of the terms or provisions of this Indenture, the Notes or any other agreement; (d) the release of any security held by any Holder or the Trustee for the Obligations or any of them; or (e) any Change in Control of the Issuer.

The Company further agrees that the Note Guarantee herein constitutes a guarantee of payment when due (and not a guarantee of collection) and waives any right to require that any resort be had by any Holder or the Trustee to any security held for payment of any Obligations.

The obligations of the Company hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason (other than payment or performance of the Obligations in full), including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise,

and shall not be subject to any defense of setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever or by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of the Obligations or otherwise. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of the Company herein shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by the failure of any Holder to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any remedy under this Indenture, the Notes or any other agreement, by any waiver or modification of any thereof, by any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the Obligations, or by any other act or thing or omission or delay to do any other act or thing which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of the Company or would otherwise operate as a discharge of the Company as a matter of law or equity.

The Company further agrees that the Note Guarantee herein shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of principal of, or interest on, any of the Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any Holder upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of the Company or otherwise.

In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which any Holder has at law or in equity against the Company by virtue hereof, upon the failure of the Company to pay any of the Obligations when and as the same shall become due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, by redemption or otherwise, the Company hereby promises to and will, upon receipt of written demand by the Trustee, forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, in cash, to the Trustee an amount equal to the sum of (i) the unpaid amount of such Obligations then due and owing and (ii) accrued and unpaid interest on such Obligations then due and owing (but only to the extent not prohibited by law).

The Company further agrees that, as between the Company, on the one hand, and the Holders, on the other hand, (x) the maturity of any Obligations may be accelerated as provided in this Indenture for the purposes of the Note Guarantee herein, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of any Obligations and (y) in the event of any such declaration of acceleration of such Obligations, such Obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Company for the purposes of this Note Guarantee.

The Company also agrees to pay any and all reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by the Trustee or the Holders in enforcing any rights under this Section 3.1.

SECTION 3.2 CONSIDERATION.

The Company has received, or will receive, direct or indirect benefits from the making of the Note Guarantee.

SECTION 3.3 EXECUTION OF GUARANTEE.

To evidence the Note Guarantee to the Holders set forth in this Article III, the Company hereby agrees to execute the Note Guarantee in substantially the form attached hereto as EXHIBIT E, which shall be endorsed on each Note ordered to be authenticated and delivered by the Trustee. The Company hereby agrees that the Note Guarantee set forth in this Article III shall

remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any failure to endorse on each Note a notation of such Note Guarantee. The Note Guarantee shall be signed on behalf of the Company by one of its authorized Officers prior to the authentication of the Note on which it is endorsed, and the delivery of such Note by the Trustee, after the authentication thereof hereunder, shall constitute due delivery of the Note Guarantee on behalf of the Company. Such signatures upon the Note Guarantee may be by manual or facsimile signature of such officers and may be imprinted or otherwise reproduced on the Note Guarantee, and in case any such officer who shall have signed the Note Guarantee shall cease to be such officer before the Note on which such Note Guarantee is endorsed shall have been authenticated and delivered by the Trustee or disposed of by the Issuer, such Note nevertheless may be authenticated and delivered or disposed of as though the Person who signed the Note Guarantee had not ceased to be such officer of the Company.

SECTION 3.4 SUCCESSOR GUARANTEE.

In the event that the Company consolidates with, merges with or into, or sells, conveys, transfers, leases or otherwise disposes of all or substantially all of its property and assets (in one transaction or a series of related transactions) to any Person and the Company is not the surviving entity, such surviving entity shall expressly assume all of the obligations of the Company under this Article III and shall execute a Note Guarantee to evidence such obligation.

ARTICLE IV

SECTION 4.1 SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE OF INDENTURE.

When:

(1) the Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee for cancellation all Notes previously authenticated (other than any Notes which have been destroyed, lost or stolen and in lieu of, or in substitution for which, other Notes shall have been authenticated and delivered) and not previously canceled, or

(2) the Issuer shall deposit with the Trustee, within one year before the Notes have become due and payable, whether at stated maturity or any other Redemption Date, or within one year of the Notes being scheduled for conversion or otherwise, cash or Common Shares, pursuant to Article XIV, sufficient to pay all of the outstanding Notes and all other sums payable by the Issuer under this Indenture, and

if, in the case of either clause (1) or (2), the Issuer shall also pay or cause to be paid all other sums payable hereunder by the Issuer, then this Indenture shall cease to be of further effect (except as to:

(i) remaining rights of registration of transfer, substitution and exchange and conversion of Notes,

(ii) rights hereunder of Holders to receive payments of principal of and premium, if any, and interest [(including Additional Interest, if any)] on, the Notes and the other rights, duties and obligations of Holders, as beneficiaries hereof with respect to the amounts, if any, so deposited with the Trustee, and

(iii) the rights, obligations and immunities of the Trustee hereunder), and the Trustee, on written demand of the Issuer accompanied by an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel (each stating that all conditions precedent herein relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture have been complied with) and at the cost and expense of the Issuer, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging satisfaction of and discharging this Indenture; provided, however, the Issuer shall reimburse the Trustee for all amounts due the Trustee under Section 5.8 and Section 6.7 hereof and for any costs or expenses thereafter reasonably and properly incurred by the Trustee and to compensate the Trustee for any services thereafter reasonably and properly rendered by the Trustee in connection with this Indenture or the Notes.

SECTION 4.2 DEPOSITED MONIES TO BE HELD IN TRUST.

Subject to Section 4.3 hereof, all monies deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 4.1 hereof shall be held in trust and applied by it to the payment, notwithstanding the provisions of Article XIV hereof, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Issuer if acting as its own Paying Agent), to the Holders of the particular Notes for the payment or redemption of which such monies have been deposited with the Trustee, of all sums due and to become due thereon for principal, premium, if any, and interest [(including Additional Interest, if any)]. All monies deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 4.1 hereof (and held by it or any Paying Agent) for the payment of Notes subsequently converted shall be returned to the Issuer upon request of the Issuer.

SECTION 4.3 RETURN OF UNCLAIMED MONIES.

Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, and subject to any applicable law, any money held by the Trustee in trust for the payment and discharge of the principal, interest [(including Additional Interest, if any)] or premium, if any, on any of the Notes which remains unclaimed for two years after the date when each payment of such principal, interest and premium has become payable shall be repaid within sixty days of such date by the Trustee to the Issuer as its absolute property free from trust, and the Trustee shall thereupon be released and discharged with respect thereto and the Holders shall look only to the Issuer for the payment of the principal, interest [(including Additional Interest, if any)] and premium, if any, on such Notes. The Issuer may cause, or, if requested by the Issuer, the Trustee shall cause notice of such payment to the Issuer to be mailed to each Holder of a Note entitled thereto prior to such payment. The Trustee shall not be liable to the Issuer or any Holder for interest on funds held by it for the payment and discharge of the principal, interest [(including Additional Interest, if any)] or premium, if any, on of any of the Notes to any Holder. The Issuer shall not be liable for any interest on the sums paid to it pursuant to this paragraph and shall not be regarded as a trustee of such money.

ARTICLE V
DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES

SECTION 5.1 EVENTS OF DEFAULT.

An “Event of Default,” wherever used herein, means any one of the following events (whatever the reason for such Event of Default and whether it shall be voluntary or involuntary or be effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body):

(a) default in the payment of principal of (or premium, if any, on) any Note at its stated maturity, upon redemption or exercise of a Repurchase Right or otherwise;

(b) default in the payment of interest [or Additional Interest, if any,] on any Note when due and payable and continuance of such default for a period of 30 days;

(c) default in the performance or breach of any term, covenant or agreement of the Issuer or the Company in this Indenture or under the Notes and continuance of such default or breach for a period of 60 consecutive days after there has been given, by registered or certified mail, to the Issuer or the Company by the Trustee or to the Issuer or the Company and the Trustee by the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Notes a written notice specifying such default or breach and requiring it to be remedied and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default” hereunder;

(d) a default occurs under any mortgage, indenture or instrument under which there may be issued or by which there may be secured or evidenced any indebtedness for money borrowed by the Issuer, the Company or any of the Company’s Significant Subsidiaries, whether such indebtedness now exists or shall be created hereafter, which default (i) is caused by a failure to pay principal of such indebtedness by the end of the applicable grace period, if any, unless such indebtedness is discharged (a “Payment Default”) or (ii) results in the acceleration of such indebtedness, unless such acceleration is waived, cured, rescinded or annulled, the principal amount of any such indebtedness, together with the principal amount of any other such indebtedness under which there is then existing a Payment Default or the maturity of which has been so accelerated, aggregates $10 million or more;

(e) a court having jurisdiction in the premises enters a decree or order for (A) relief in respect of the Issuer, the Company or any of the Company’s Significant Subsidiaries in an involuntary case under any applicable bankruptcy or other similar law now or hereafter in effect, (B) appointment of a receiver, liquidator, assignee, custodian, trustee, sequestrator or similar official of the Issuer, the Company or any of the Company’s Significant Subsidiaries or (C) the winding up or liquidation of the affairs of the Issuer, the Company or any of the Company’s Significant Subsidiaries and, in each case, such decree or order shall remain unstayed and in effect for a period of 30 consecutive days;

assignee, custodian, trustee, sequestrator or similar official of the Issuer, the Company or any of the Company’s Significant Subsidiaries or for all or substantially all of the property and assets of the Issuer, the Company or any of the Company’s Significant Subsidiaries or (C) effects any general assignment for the benefit of creditors; or

(g) failure by the Issuer or the Company to provide the notice required under this Indenture upon a Designated Event.

SECTION 5.2 ACCELERATION OF MATURITY; RESCISSION AND ANNULMENT.

(a) If an Event of Default with respect to outstanding Notes (other than an Event of Default with respect to the Issuer or the Company specified in Section 5.1(e) or 5.1(f) hereof) occurs and is continuing and has not been cured or waived in accordance with this Indenture, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes, by written notice to the Issuer or the Company specifying such Event of Default and requiring it to be remedied and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default” hereunder, may declare due and payable 100% of the principal amount of all outstanding Notes plus any accrued and unpaid interest to the date of payment. Upon a declaration of acceleration, such principal and accrued and unpaid interest to the date of payment shall be immediately due and payable.

(b) If an Event of Default with respect to the Issuer or the Company specified in Section 5.1(e) or 5.1(f) hereof occurs, all unpaid principal and accrued and unpaid interest [(including Additional Interest, if any)] on the outstanding Notes shall become and be immediately due and payable, without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder.

(c) The Holders, either (a) through the written consent of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes, or (b) by the adoption of a resolution by Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes represented at a meeting of Holders at which a quorum (as prescribed in Section 9.4) is present, may rescind and annul an acceleration and its consequences if:

(1) all existing Events of Default, other than the nonpayment of principal of or interest [(including Additional Interest, if any)] on the Notes which have become due solely because of the acceleration, have been remedied, cured or waived, and

(2) the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction;

provided, however, that in the event of a declaration of acceleration in respect of the Notes because of an Event of Default specified in Section 5.1(d) shall have occurred and be continuing, such declaration of acceleration shall be automatically rescinded and annulled if the indebtedness that is the subject of such Event of Default has been discharged or the holders thereof have waived, cured, rescinded or annulled their declaration of acceleration in respect of such indebtedness, and written notice of such discharge or waiver, cure, rescission or annulment as the case may be, shall have been given to the Trustee by the Issuer and countersigned by the holders of such indebtedness or a trustee, fiduciary or agent for such holders, within 30 days after such

declaration of acceleration in respect of the Notes and no other Event of Default has occurred during such 30-day period which has not been cured or waived during such period.

SECTION 5.3 OTHER REMEDIES.

If an Event of Default with respect to outstanding Notes occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may, in its discretion, pursue any available remedy by proceeding at law or in equity to collect the payment of principal of or interest on the Notes or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes.

The Trustee may maintain a proceeding in which it may prosecute and enforce all rights of action and claims under this Indenture or the Notes, even if it does not possess any of the Notes or does not produce any of them in the proceeding.

SECTION 5.4 WAIVER OF PAST DEFAULTS.

The Holders, either (a) through the written consent of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes, or (b) by the adoption of a resolution, at a meeting of Holders of the outstanding Notes at which a quorum (as prescribed in Section 9.4) is present, by the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes represented at such meeting, may, on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes, waive an existing Default or Event of Default, except a Default or Event of Default:

(1) in the payment of the principal of or premium, if any, or interest [(including Additional Interest, if any)] on any Note (provided, however, that subject to Section 5.7 hereof, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes may rescind an acceleration and its consequences, including any related payment default that resulted from such acceleration);

(2) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which, under Section 8.2 hereof, including Section 8.2(g), cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holders of each outstanding Note affected.

Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured, for every purpose of this Indenture; provided, however, that no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

SECTION 5.5 CONTROL BY MAJORITY.

The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes (or such lesser amount as shall have acted at a meeting pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture) 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. However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that:

(1) conflicts with any law or with this Indenture;

(2) the Trustee determines may be unduly prejudicial to the rights of the Holders not joining therein, or

(3) may expose the Trustee to personal liability.

The Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction.

SECTION 5.6 LIMITATION ON SUIT.

No Holder of any Note shall have any right to pursue any remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Notes (including, instituting any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Indenture or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee) unless:

(1) such Holder has previously given written notice to the Trustee of an Event of Default that is continuing;

(2) the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes shall have made written request to the Trustee to pursue the remedy;

(3) such Holder or Holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity satisfactory to it against any costs, expenses and liabilities incurred in complying with such request;

(4) the Trustee has failed to comply with the request for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity; and

(5) during such 60-day period, no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Trustee by the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes (or such amount as shall have acted at a meeting pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture);

provided, however, that no one or more of such Holders may use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of another Holder (including conversion rights) or to obtain preference or priority over another Holder.

SECTION 5.7 UNCONDITIONAL RIGHT OF HOLDERS TO RECEIVE PAYMENT.

Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, the Holder of any Note shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment of the principal of and premium, if any, and interest [including Additional Interest, if any,] on such Note on the stated maturity expressed in such Note, in the case of redemption, on the Redemption Date, and in the case of the exercise of a Repurchase Right, on the Repurchase Date, and to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, and such right shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder.

SECTION 5.8 COLLECTION OF INDEBTEDNESS AND SUITS FOR ENFORCEMENT BY THE TRUSTEE.

Each of the Issuer and Company, jointly and severally, covenants that if:

(1) a default is made in the payment of any interest [(including Additional Interest, if any)] on any Note when such interest [(including Additional Interest, if any)] becomes due and payable and such default continues for a period of 30 days, or

(2) a default is made in the payment of the principal of or premium, if any, on any Note at the maturity thereof,

the Issuer and the Company will, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to it, for the benefit of the Holders of such Notes, the whole amount then due and payable (as expressed therein or as a result of any acceleration effected pursuant to Section 5.2 hereof) on such Notes for principal and premium, if any, and interest [(including Additional Interest, if any)] and, to the extent that payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable, interest on any overdue principal and premium, if any, and on any overdue interest [(including Additional Interest, if any)], calculated using the applicable interest rate specified in Section 2.1(c) hereof, and, in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel.

If the Issuer and the Company fail to pay such amounts forthwith upon such demand, the Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an express trust, may institute a judicial proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, may prosecute such proceeding to judgment or final decree and may enforce the same against the Issuer and/or the Company and collect the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner provided by law out of the property of the Issuer and/or the Company, wherever situated.

If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Holders of Notes by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall deem most effectual to protect and enforce any such rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement in this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy.

SECTION 5.9 TRUSTEE MAY FILE PROOFS OF CLAIM.

In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to the Issuer or the Company or the property of the Issuer or the Company or its creditors, the Trustee (irrespective of whether the principal of the Notes shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand on the Issuer or the Company for the payment of overdue principal or interest [(including Additional Interest, if any)]) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise,

(1) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of principal and premium, if any, and interest [(including Additional Interest, if any)] owing and unpaid in respect of the Notes and to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and of the Holders of Notes allowed in such judicial proceeding, and

(2) to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any such claim and to distribute the same;

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceedings is hereby authorized by each Holder of Notes to make such payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders of Notes, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 5.8.

Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept, or adopt on behalf of any Holder of a Note, any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any Holder thereof or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder of a Note in any such proceeding.

SECTION 5.10 RESTORATION OF RIGHTS AND REMEDIES.

If the Trustee or any Holder of a Note has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every such case, subject to any determination in such proceeding, the Issuer, the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of Notes shall be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and the Holders shall continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted.

SECTION 5.11 RIGHTS AND REMEDIES CUMULATIVE.

No right or remedy conferred in this Indenture upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders of Notes is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

SECTION 5.12 DELAY OR OMISSION NOT WAIVER.

No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any Note to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or any acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders of Notes may be exercised from time to

time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders of Notes, as the case may be.

SECTION 5.13 APPLICATION OF MONEY COLLECTED.

Subject to Article XIII, any money collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article shall be applied in the following order, at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee and, in case of the distribution of such money on account of principal or premium, if any, or interest [(including Additional Interest, if any)], upon presentation of the Notes and the notation thereon of the payment if only partially paid and upon surrender thereof if fully paid:

FIRST: To the payment of all amounts due the Trustee;

SECOND: To the payment of the amounts then due and unpaid for principal of and premium, if any, and interest [(including Additional Interest, if any)] on the Notes in respect of which or for the benefit of which such money has been collected, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on such Notes for principal and premium, if any, and interest [(including Additional Interest, if any)], respectively; and

THIRD: Any remaining amounts shall be repaid to the Issuer.

SECTION 5.14 UNDERTAKING FOR COSTS.

All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Note by such Holder’s 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, suffered 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, 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; but the provisions of this Section shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Trustee, to any suit instituted by any Holder, or group of Holders, holding in the aggregate more than 10% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes, or to any suit instituted by any Holder of any Note for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of or premium, if any, or interest [(including Additional Interest, if any)] on any Note on or after the stated maturity expressed in such Note (or, in the case of redemption or exercise of a Repurchase Right, on or after the Redemption Date) or for the enforcement of the right to convert any Note in accordance with Article XIV.

SECTION 5.15 WAIVER OF STAY OR EXTENSION LAWS.

Each of the Issuer and the Company, jointly and severally, covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim to take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Issuer and the Company (to the extent that they may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waive all benefit or advantage of any such law and covenants that they will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the

Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.

ARTICLE VI
THE TRUSTEE

SECTION 6.1 DUTIES OF TRUSTEE.

(a) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his or her own affairs.

(c) The Trustee may not be relieved from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act or its own willful misconduct, except that:

(i) the Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer, unless it is proved that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and

(a) Subject to Section 6.1, the Trustee may conclusively rely on any document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper person. The Trustee need not investigate any fact or matter stated in the document; if, however, the Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled during normal business hours to examine the relevant books, records and premises of the Issuer, personally or by agent or attorney upon reasonable prior notice.

(i) If the Share Price is between two share price amounts on the Make Whole Table or the Effective Date is between two dates on the Make Whole Table, the Make Whole Premium will be determined by straight-line interpolation between Make Whole Premium amounts set forth for the higher and lower share price amounts and the two dates, as applicable, based on a 365-day year (or a 366-day year if the Effective Date occurs in a leap year).

(ii) If the Share Price is in excess of $50.00 (subject to adjustment as described in Section 11.3, the “Share Price Cap”), the Make Whole Premium shall be equal to zero Common Shares.

(iii) If the Share Price is less than $5.36 (subject to adjustment as described in Section 11.3, the “Share Price Threshold”), the Make Whole Premium shall be equal to zero Common Shares.

(iv) In no event shall the shares issuable upon conversion per $1,000 principal amount of Notes converted pursuant to Article XIV hereof be in excess of 186.5672 Common Shares (subject to adjustment as described in Section 11.3, the “Make Whole Shares Cap”).


	(v)		For purposes of this Section 11.1(c), the following terms shall have the respective meanings indicated:

(1) “Effective Date” means the date that a Change in Control becomes effective.

(2) “Share Price” means the price paid per share of Common Share in the transaction constituting the Change in Control, determined as follows:

(A) if holders of Common Shares receive only cash in the transaction constituting the Change in Control, the Share Price shall equal the cash amount paid per share of Common Share; and

(B) in all other cases, the Share Price shall equal the average Closing Price of a Common Share over the five Trading Day period ending on the Trading Day immediately preceding the Effective Date.

(d) The Issuer shall pay the Make Whole Premium in cash, Common Shares, or a combination of cash and Common Shares pursuant to Section 14.14 hereof; provided, however, that any payment of the Make Whole Premium in cash shall be valued at the Share Price calculated in accordance with Section 11.1(c) hereof.

(e) On or prior to the Designated Event Repurchase Date, the Issuer shall deposit with the Paying Agent a number or an amount of Common Shares, and cash, if any, sufficient to pay the Make Whole Premium with respect to all the Notes to be repurchased on such date and all the Notes converted in connection with such Change in Control; provided that if such payment is made on the Designated Event Repurchase Date, it must be received by the Paying Agent by 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on such date.

SECTION 11.2 ISSUER’S OPTION TO PROVIDE FOR CONVERSION INTO SHARES OF ACQUIROR IN LIEU OF MAKE WHOLE PREMIUM.

(a) If a Change in Control occurs that would otherwise trigger the obligation of the Issuer to pay the Make Whole Premium pursuant to Section 11.1 hereof and the Acquiror is a Public Entity or is a direct or indirect subsidiary of a Public Entity, the Issuer may elect to provide for the Notes to be convertible into Common Shares of such Public Entity in lieu of paying the Make Whole Premium. The Issuer may elect to provide for the conversion of the Notes into Common Shares of such Public Entity (and thus to be under no obligation to pay the Make Whole Premium) so long as:

(i) the common shares of the Public Entity into which the Notes will be convertible are, subject to notification of issuance, listed on the principal United States securities exchange on which the issued and outstanding common shares of the Public Entity are listed or, if not so listed, on the NASDAQ National Market;

(ii) the common shares of the Public Entity are registered under the Exchange Act; and

(iii) the common shares of the Public Entity into which the Notes will be convertible are registered under the Securities Act and any necessary qualification or registration under applicable state securities laws have been made (subject to the availability of any exemption from such qualification and registration requirements).

(b) If the conditions contained in clauses (i) through (iii) of Section 11.2(a) are not satisfied on or prior to the effectiveness of the Change in Control, the Issuer shall pay the Make Whole Premium in connection with the Change in Control to electing Holders as described under Article XIII and Section 14.1 hereof.

(c) The Issuer shall give to all Record Holders and to the Trustee and the Paying Agent, in the manner provided in Section 16.2 hereof on or before the 10th day after the Issuer has become aware of a Change in Control, a notice indicating Issuer’s intent to either pay the Make Whole Premium or to provide for the Notes to be convertible into common shares of the Public Entity. Such notice shall be in the same form as required under Section 13.4 hereof and shall include the amount and basis of calculation of the Make Whole Premium.

SECTION 11.3 ADJUSTMENTS RELATING TO MAKE WHOLE PREMIUM.

Each time that the Conversion Rate is adjusted by the Issuer pursuant to Section 14.4 hereof, (A) the Share Price Threshold, the Share Price Cap and each of the share prices set forth in the left hand column of the Make Whole Table shall be adjusted (rounded to the nearest cent) by multiplying each such amount by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Conversion Rate immediately prior to such adjustment and the denominator of which is the Conversion Rate as so adjusted, and (B) the Make Whole Shares Cap and each of share amounts set forth in the body of the Make Whole Table shall be adjusted (rounded to the nearest one-one hundredth of a share) in the same manner as the Conversion Rate is adjusted pursuant to Section 14.4 hereof.

ARTICLE XII
REDEMPTION OF NOTES

SECTION 12.1 [RESERVED]

SECTION 12.2 OPTIONAL REDEMPTION.

(a) The Issuer shall not redeem the Notes at any time prior to March 15, 2015.

(b) On or after March 15, 2015, the Issuer may, at its option, redeem the Notes in whole at any time or in part from time to time (an “Optional Redemption”) at the redemption price of 100.00% of the principal amount of such Notes (the “Optional Redemption Price”) payable in cash; provided, however, that the Issuer may not redeem the Notes if the Issuer has failed to pay any interest on the Notes and such failure to pay is continuing, or if the principal amount of the Notes has been accelerated.

(c) The Issuer shall pay any interest on the Notes called for redemption pursuant to this Section 12.2 (including those Notes which are converted into Common Shares after a Regular Record Date but prior to the Optional Redemption Date) accrued but not paid to, but excluding, the Optional Redemption Date. Such interest shall be paid to the Holder entitled

to the Optional Redemption Price; provided that if the Optional Redemption Date is an Interest Payment Date, the Issuer shall pay the interest to the Holder of the Note at the close of business on the corresponding Regular Record Date.

SECTION 12.3 NOTICE TO TRUSTEE.

If the Issuer elects to redeem Notes pursuant to an Optional Redemption (such election to be evidenced by a Board Resolution of the Issuer), it shall notify the Trustee at least 35 but no more than 60 days prior to the Optional Redemption Date (unless a shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the Trustee) of such intended Optional Redemption Date, the principal amount of Notes to be redeemed and the CUSIP numbers of the Notes to be redeemed.

SECTION 12.4 SELECTION OF NOTES TO BE REDEEMED.

If fewer than all the Notes are to be redeemed pursuant to an Optional Redemption, the Trustee shall select the particular Notes to be redeemed in principal amounts of $1,000 or integral multiples thereof from outstanding Notes by a method that complies with the requirements of any exchange on which the Notes are listed, or, if the Notes are not listed on an exchange, on a pro rata basis or otherwise in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary or by lot in accordance with any other method the Trustee considers fair and appropriate. Notes and portions thereof that the Trustee selects shall be in amounts equal to the minimum authorized denominations for Notes to be redeemed or any integral multiple thereof.

If any Note selected for partial redemption pursuant to an Optional Redemption is converted in part before termination of the conversion right with respect to the portion of the Notes so selected, the converted portion of such Note shall be deemed to be the portion selected for redemption (provided, however, that the Holder of such Note so converted and deemed redeemed shall not be entitled to any additional interest payment as a result of such deemed redemption over the amount that such Holder would have otherwise been entitled to receive upon conversion of such Note. Notes which have been converted during a selection of Notes to be redeemed pursuant to an Optional Redemption may be treated by the Trustee as outstanding for the purpose of such selection.

The Trustee shall promptly notify the Issuer and the Registrar in writing of the Notes selected for redemption and, in the case of any Notes selected for partial redemption pursuant to an Optional Redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed.

For all purposes of this Indenture, unless the context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the redemption of Notes shall relate, in the case of any Notes redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to the portion of the principal amount of such Notes which has been or is to be redeemed.

SECTION 12.5 NOTICE OF REDEMPTION.

(a) [Reserved.]

(b) Notice of an Optional Redemption shall be given in the manner provided in Section 16.2 hereof to the Holders of Notes to be redeemed. Such notice shall be given not

(3) if fewer than all the outstanding Notes are to be redeemed, the aggregate principal amount of Notes to be redeemed and the aggregate principal amount of Notes which will be outstanding after such partial redemption;

(4) that on the Optional Redemption Date the Optional Redemption Price and, as provided in Section 12.2(c), interest accrued and unpaid to, but excluding, the Optional Redemption Date, [and Additional Interest, if any,] will become due and payable upon each such Note to be redeemed, and that interest thereon shall cease to accrue on and after such date;

(5) the Conversion Price then in effect, the date on which the right to convert the principal of the Notes to be redeemed will terminate and the places where such Notes may be surrendered for conversion;

(6) the place or places where such Notes are to be surrendered for payment of the Optional Redemption Price and accrued and unpaid interest, if any;

(7) the CUSIP number of the Notes; and

(8) the last date on which exchanges or transfers of Notes may be made pursuant to Section 2.6 hereof, and shall specify the serial numbers and the portions thereof called for redemption.

(c) Notice of redemption of Notes to be redeemed at the election of the Issuer shall be given by the Issuer or, at the Issuer’s request, by the Trustee in the name of and at the expense of the Issuer.

SECTION 12.6 EFFECT OF NOTICES OF REDEMPTION.

(a) Notice of redemption having been given as provided in Section 12.5 hereof, the Notes so to be redeemed shall, on the Optional Redemption Date, become due and payable at the Optional Redemption Price therein specified (and, as provided in Section 12.2(c), accrued interest [and Additional Interest, if any,] to but excluding, the Optional Redemption Date) and from and after such date (unless the Issuer shall default in the payment of the Optional Redemption Price and accrued and unpaid interest) such Notes shall cease to bear interest [and Additional Interest, if any]; provided that the Issuer may specify in such notice conditions to the redemption of the Notes that must be met on or prior to the Optional Redemption Date, including the receipt of proceeds from concurrent equity or other financings, in which case the Optional Redemption Date shall not occur, and the Notes to be redeemed shall not be due and payable at the Optional Redemption Price, until such conditions are satisfied. The Issuer shall give, or

instruct the Trustee to give, notice to the Holders of any failure to satisfy such conditions prior to the Optional Redemption Date. Upon surrender of any such Note for redemption in accordance with such notice (including the satisfaction of all applicable conditions), such Note shall be paid by the Issuer at the Optional Redemption Price (and, as provided in Section 12.2(c), [Additional Interest and] accrued interest, if any, to but excluding the Optional Redemption Date); provided, however, that the installments of interest on Notes with an Interest Payment Date prior to or on the Optional Redemption Date shall be payable to the Holders of such Notes, or one or more Predecessor Notes, registered as such on the relevant Record Date according to their terms and the provisions of Section 2.6 hereof.

(b) If any Note called for redemption shall not be so paid when due upon surrender thereof for redemption, the principal and premium, if any, shall, until paid, bear interest from the Optional Redemption Date, as the case may be, at the interest rate set forth on the Note.

SECTION 12.7 DEPOSIT OF OPTIONAL REDEMPTION PRICE.

On or before the Trading Day immediately preceding the Optional Redemption Date, the Issuer shall deposit with the Trustee or with a Paying Agent (or, if the Issuer is acting as its own Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust) an amount of money sufficient to pay the Optional Redemption Price of, and accrued and unpaid interest [and Additional Interest, if any,] on all the Notes to be redeemed on that Optional Redemption Date other than any Notes called for redemption on that date which have been converted prior to the date of such deposit.

If any Note called for redemption is converted prior to the Optional Redemption Date, any money deposited with the Trustee or with a Paying Agent or so segregated and held in trust for the redemption of such Note shall (subject to any right of the Holder of such Note or any Predecessor Note to receive interest as provided in the third paragraph of Section 2.1(c) hereof) be paid to the Issuer on request of the Issuer or, if then held by the Issuer, shall be discharged from such trust.

SECTION 12.8 NOTES REDEEMED IN PART.

Any Note which is to be redeemed only in part shall be surrendered at an office or agency of the Issuer designated for that purpose pursuant to Section 10.2 hereof (with, if the Issuer or the Trustee so requires, due endorsement by, or a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Issuer and the Trustee duly executed by, the Holder thereof or the Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing), and the Issuer shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Note without service charge, a new Note or Notes of any authorized denomination as requested by such Holder in aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Note so surrendered.

SECTION 12.9 CONVERSION ARRANGEMENT ON CALL FOR REDEMPTION.

In connection with any redemption of Notes, the Issuer may arrange for the purchase and conversion of any such Notes called for redemption by entering into an agreement with one or more investment banks or other purchasers (the “Purchasers”) to purchase all or a portion of such Notes by paying to the Trustee in trust for the Holders, on or before the Redemption Date, an

amount not less than the applicable Redemption Price (together with accrued interest to the Redemption Date[, including Additional Interest, if any]) of such Notes. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article XII, the obligation of the Issuer to pay the Redemption Price (together with accrued interest to the Redemption Date[, including Additional Interest, if any]) shall be deemed to be satisfied and discharged to the extent such amount is so paid by such Purchasers. If such an agreement is entered into (a copy of which shall be filed with the Trustee prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately prior to the Redemption Date), any Notes called for redemption that are not duly surrendered for conversion by the Holders thereof may, at the option of the Issuer, be deemed, to the fullest extent permitted by law, and consistent with any such agreement or agreements with such Purchasers, to be acquired by such Purchasers from such Holders and (notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article XII) surrendered by such Purchasers for conversion, all as of immediately prior to the close of business on the Redemption Date (and the right to convert any such Notes shall be extended through such time), subject to payment of the above amount as aforesaid. At the direction of the Issuer, the Trustee shall hold and dispose of any such amount paid to it by the Purchasers to the Holders in the same manner as it would monies deposited with it by the Issuer for the redemption of Notes. Without the Trustee’s prior written consent, no arrangement between the Issuer and such Purchasers for the purchase and conversion of any Notes shall increase or otherwise affect any of the powers, duties, responsibilities or obligations of the Trustee as set forth in this Indenture, and the Issuer agrees to indemnify the Trustee from, and hold it harmless against, any loss, liability or expense arising out of or in connection with any such arrangement for the purchase and conversion of any Notes between the Issuer and such Purchasers, including the reasonable costs and expenses, including reasonable legal fees, incurred by the Trustee in the defense of such claim or liability.

If any of the foregoing provisions or other provisions of this Article XIII are inconsistent with applicable law, such law shall govern.

SECTION 13.2 REPURCHASE AT THE OPTION OF THE HOLDER UPON A DESIGNATED EVENT.

(a) In the event that a Designated Event shall occur at any time prior to the Maturity Date, then each Holder shall have the right (the “Designated Event Repurchase Right”), at such Holder’s option, to require the Issuer to repurchase, and upon the exercise of such right the Issuer shall repurchase, such Holder’s Notes, in whole or in part, of U.S. $1,000 or any integral multiple of U.S. $1,000 in excess thereof or the entire principal amount of the Notes held by any Holder (provided that no single Note may be repurchased in part unless the portion of the principal amount of such Note to be Outstanding after such repurchase is equal to U.S. $1,000 or integral multiples of U.S. $1,000 in excess thereof), on the date specified by the Issuer (the “Designated Event Repurchase Date”) that is not less than 20 nor more than 30 Business Days after the date of the Issuer Notice (as defined in Section 13.4) at a purchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest [and Additional Interest, if any], to, but excluding, the Designated Event Repurchase Date (the “Designated Event Repurchase Price”); provided, however, that installments of interest, if any, on Notes with an Interest Payment Date on or prior to the Designated Event Repurchase Date shall be payable to the Holders of such Notes registered as such on the relevant Record Date according to their terms and the provisions of Section 2.1 hereof.

(d) If any of the foregoing provisions or other provisions of this Article XIII are inconsistent with applicable law, such law shall govern.

SECTION 13.5 NOTICE OF WITHDRAWAL.

A Holder may withdraw any Repurchase Notice by delivering a written notice of withdrawal to the Paying Agent prior to the close of business on the Repurchase Date (“Withdrawal Notice”). The Withdrawal Notice must state:

(a) the principal amount of the withdrawn Notes;

(b) if certificated Notes have been issued, the certificate number of the withdrawn Notes (or, if the Notes are not certificated, the Withdrawal Notice must comply with appropriate Depositary procedures); and

SECTION 13.6 PAYMENT OF THE REPURCHASE PRICE.

(a) Payment of the Repurchase Price for a Note for which a Repurchase Notice has been delivered and not withdrawn is conditioned upon book-entry transfer or delivery of such Note, together with necessary endorsements, to the Paying Agent at its corporate trust office in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, or any other office of the Paying Agent, at any time after delivery of the Repurchase Notice. The Issuer shall pay or deposit funds with the Paying Agent in the amount of the Repurchase Price for the Note on the Trading Day immediately following the Repurchase Date.

(b) If the Paying Agent holds money sufficient to pay the Repurchase Price of the Notes on the Trading Day immediately following the Repurchase Date, then, on and after the Trading Day immediately following the Repurchase Date:

(i) the Notes will cease to be outstanding;

(ii) interest will cease to accrue in respect of any date from and after the Repurchase Date; and

(iii) all other rights of the Holder will terminate, other than the right to receive the Repurchase Price upon delivery of the Notes.

(c) This will be the case whether or not book-entry transfer to the Notes has been made or the Notes have been delivered to the Paying Agent. Installments of interest that mature on or prior to the Repurchase Date shall be payable in cash to the Holders of such Notes registered as such at the close of business on the relevant Regular Record Date.

ARTICLE XIV
CONVERSION OF NOTES

SECTION 14.1 CONVERSION RIGHT AND CONVERSION PRICE.

(a) Subject to and upon compliance with the provisions of this Article, at the option of the Holder thereof, any outstanding Note or any portion of the principal amount thereof which is $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 may be converted into duly authorized, fully paid and nonassessable Common Shares, at the Conversion Rate, determined as hereinafter provided, in effect at the time of conversion and subject to adjustment, as described below. Such conversion right shall expire at the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding March 15, 2025 unless the Notes or a portion thereof have been previously called for redemption or repurchase. A Note for which a Holder has delivered a Repurchase Notice pursuant to Article XIII hereof may be surrendered for conversion only if such notice is withdrawn in accordance with Article XIII hereof.

(b) The rate at which Common Shares shall be delivered upon conversion (the “Conversion Rate”) shall be initially equal to 121.2121 Common Shares per $1,000 principal amount of Notes. The Conversion Price of the Notes (the “Conversion Price”) shall be initially equal to $8.25 per Common Share. The Conversion Rate and the Conversion Price shall be adjusted in certain instances as provided in Section 14.4 hereof.

(c) In case a Note or portion thereof is called for repurchase or redemption, such conversion right in respect of the Note or the portion so called, shall expire at the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding a Repurchase Date or a Redemption Date, unless the Issuer defaults in making the payment due upon repurchase or redemption. In the case of a Change in Control for which the Holder exercises its Designated Event Repurchase Right with respect to a Note or portion thereof, such conversion right in respect of the Note or portion thereof shall expire at the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Designated Event Repurchase Date.

(d) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Article XIV, any conversion of the Notes held by a resident of Canada will be subject to the availability of a prospectus exemption under applicable Canadian securities laws until such time as a final receipt has been issued for a Canadian prospectus qualifying the distribution of the underlying Common Shares.

SECTION 14.2 EXERCISE OF CONVERSION RIGHT.

In order to exercise the conversion right with respect to any interest in a Global Note, the beneficial holder must complete, or cause to be completed, the appropriate instruction form for conversion pursuant to the Depositary’s book-entry conversion program; deliver, or cause to be delivered, by book-entry delivery an interest in such Global Note; furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents if required by the Issuer or the Trustee or Conversion Agent; and pay the funds, if any, required by this Section 14.2 and any transfer taxes if required pursuant to Section 14.8.

In order to exercise the conversion right with respect to any Note in certificated form, the Issuer must receive at the office or agency of the Issuer maintained for that purpose in the City of New York or, at the option of such Holder, the Corporate Trust Office, such Note with the original or facsimile of the form entitled “Conversion Notice” on the reverse thereof, duly completed and manually signed, together with such Notes duly endorsed for transfer, accompanied by the funds, if any, required by this Section 14.2. Such notice shall also state the name or names (with address or addresses) in which the certificate or certificates for shares of Common Shares which shall be issuable on such conversion shall be issued, and shall be accompanied by transfer or similar taxes, if required pursuant to Section 14.8.

Except to the extent that the Issuer has irrevocably elected to make a cash payment of principal upon conversion pursuant to Section 14.14(b), the Issuer may, in lieu of delivery of Common Shares in satisfaction of the Issuer’s obligation upon conversion of the Notes by any Holder, elect to deliver cash or a combination of cash and Common Shares pursuant to Section 14.14.

If the Issuer elects to settle in Common Shares only pursuant to Section 14.14, as promptly as practicable after satisfaction of the requirements for conversion set forth above, subject to compliance with any restrictions on transfer if shares issuable on conversion are to be issued in a name other than that of the Holder (as if such transfer were a transfer of the Note or Notes (or portion thereof) so converted), the Issuer shall cause the Company to issue and shall deliver to such Holder at the office or agency maintained by the Issuer for such purpose pursuant to Section 10.2, (i) a certificate or certificates for the number of full shares of Common Shares issuable upon the conversion of such Note or portion thereof as determined by the Issuer in accordance with the provisions of Section 14.14 and (ii) cash or a check or cash in respect of any fractional interest in respect of a share of Common Shares arising upon such conversion, calculated by the Issuer as provided in Section 14.3. If the Issuer elects to settle in cash or a combination of cash and Common Shares pursuant to Section 14.14, the cash and, if applicable, a certificate or certificates for the number of full shares of Common Shares into which the Notes are converted (and cash in lieu of fractional shares) will be delivered to the Holder after satisfaction of the requirements for conversion set forth above, in accordance with Section 14.14. In case any Note of a denomination greater than $1,000 shall be surrendered for partial

conversion, and subject to Section 2.2, the Issuer shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of the Note so surrendered, without charge to the Holder, a new Note or Notes in authorized denominations in an aggregate principal amount equal to the unconverted portion of the surrendered Note.

Each conversion shall be deemed to have been effected as to any such Note (or portion thereof) on the date on which the requirements set forth above in this Section 14.2 have been satisfied as to such Note (or portion thereof) (the “Conversion Date”), and the Person in whose name any certificate or certificates for shares of Common Shares shall be issuable upon such conversion shall be deemed to have become on said date the holder of record of the shares represented thereby; provided that any such surrender on any date when the stock transfer books of the Issuer shall be closed shall constitute the Person in whose name the certificates are to be issued as the record holder thereof for all purposes on the next succeeding day on which such stock transfer books are open, but such conversion shall be at the Conversion Rate in effect on the Conversion Date.

To the extent provided in Section 2.1, Notes surrendered for conversion during the period from the close of business on any Regular Record Date to the opening of business on the next succeeding Interest Payment Date (except in the case of any Note whose maturity is prior to such Interest Payment Date) shall be accompanied by payment in New York Clearing House funds or other funds acceptable to the Issuer of an amount equal to the interest [and Additional Interest, if any,] to be received on such Interest Payment Date on the principal amount of Notes being surrendered for conversion, as well as any taxes or duties payable pursuant to Section 14.8. To the extent provided in Section 2.1, Notes (i) for which overdue interest, if any, exists at the time of conversion with respect to such Notes or (ii) which have been called for redemption by the Issuer in a notice of redemption pursuant to Section 12.5 or that are submitted for repurchase by the Holder in a Designated Event Repurchase Notice, and which are converted prior to redemption or repurchase, shall not require such concurrent payment to the Issuer upon surrender for conversion, if such Holder’s conversion right would terminate because of the redemption or repurchase between the Regular Record Date and the close of business on the second Business Day following the next succeeding Interest Payment Date and if converted during the time period set forth in this sentence, the Holders of such converted Notes shall be entitled to receive (and retain) any accrued interest on the principal of such surrendered Notes[, and Additional Interest, if any].

Notes shall be deemed to have been converted immediately prior to 5:00 P.M. Eastern Time on the day of surrender of such Notes for conversion in accordance with the foregoing provisions, and at such time the rights of the Holders of such Notes as Holders shall cease, and the Person or Persons entitled to receive the Common Shares issuable upon conversion shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder or holders of such Common Shares at such time. As promptly as practicable on or after the Conversion Date, the Issuer shall cause to be issued and delivered to such Conversion Agent a certificate or certificates for the number of full Common Shares issuable upon conversion, together with payment in lieu of any fraction of a share as provided in Section 14.3 hereof.

Upon the conversion of an interest in a Global Note, the Conversion Agent, or the Trustee, as custodian for the Depositary, at the direction of the Conversion Agent, shall make a

notation on such Global Note as to the reduction in the principal amount represented thereby. The Issuer shall notify the Trustee in writing of any conversions of Notes effected through any Conversion Agent.

Except for accrued and unpaid interest payable through a Regular Record Date with respect to a Note converted after such Regular Record Date but prior to the corresponding Interest Payment Date, upon the conversion of a Note, a Holder will not receive any cash payment of accrued and unpaid interest [or Additional Interest, if any]. Accrued and unpaid interest[, and Additional Interest, if any,] is deemed to be paid in full with the Common Shares (together with the cash payment, if any in lieu of fractional shares) rather than cancelled, extinguished or forfeited.

In the case of any Note which is converted in part only, upon such conversion the Issuer shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder thereof, at the expense of the Issuer, a new Note or Notes of authorized denominations in aggregate principal amount equal to the unconverted portion of the principal amount of such Notes.

If Common Shares to be issued upon conversion of a Restricted Security, or Notes to be issued upon conversion of a Restricted Security in part only, are to be registered in a name other than that of the Holder of such Restricted Security, such Holder must deliver to the Conversion Agent a Conversion Notice, dated the date of surrender of such Restricted Security and signed by such Holder, as to compliance with the restrictions on transfer applicable to such Restricted Security. Neither the Trustee nor any Conversion Agent, Registrar or Transfer Agent shall be required to register in a name other than that of the Holder of Common Shares or Notes issued upon conversion of any Restricted Security not so accompanied by a properly completed certificate.

The Issuer hereby initially appoints the Trustee as Conversion Agent.

SECTION 14.3 FRACTIONS OF SHARES.

No fractional Common Shares shall be issued upon conversion of any Note or Notes. If more than one Note shall be surrendered for conversion at one time by the same Holder, the number of full shares which shall be issued upon conversion thereof shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes (or specified portions thereof) so surrendered. Instead of any fractional Common Shares which would otherwise be issued upon conversion of any Note or Notes (or specified portions thereof), the Issuer shall pay a cash adjustment in respect of such fraction (calculated to the nearest one-100th of a share) in an amount equal to the same fraction of the Closing Price of the Common Shares as of the Trading Day preceding the date of conversion.

SECTION 14.4 ADJUSTMENT OF CONVERSION RATE.

Each time that the Conversion Price is adjusted by the Issuer pursuant to this Section 14.4, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted (rounded to the nearest one-ten thousandth) by multiplying the Conversion Rate by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Conversion Price immediately prior to such adjustment and the denominator of which is the Conversion Price as so adjusted.

The Conversion Price shall be subject to adjustments, calculated by the Issuer, from time to time as follows:

(a) In case the Company shall hereafter pay a dividend or make a distribution to all holders of the outstanding Common Shares in Common Shares, the Conversion Price in effect at the opening of business on the date following the date fixed for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such dividend or other distribution shall be reduced by multiplying such Conversion Price by a fraction:

(i) the numerator of which shall be the number of Common Shares outstanding at the close of business on the Record Date (as defined in Section 14.4(g)) fixed for such determination, and

(ii) the denominator of which shall be the sum of such number of shares and the total number of shares constituting such dividend or other distribution.

Such reduction shall become effective immediately after the opening of business on the day following the Record Date. If any dividend or distribution of the type described in this Section 14.4(a) is declared but not so paid or made, the Conversion Price shall again be adjusted to the Conversion Price which would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared.

(b) In case the outstanding Common Shares shall be subdivided into a greater number of Common Shares, the Conversion Price in effect at the opening of business on the day following the day upon which such subdivision becomes effective shall be proportionately reduced, and conversely, in case outstanding Common Shares shall be combined into a smaller number of Common Shares, the Conversion Price in effect at the opening of business on the day following the day upon which such combination becomes effective shall be proportionately increased, such reduction or increase, as the case may be, to become effective immediately after the opening of business on the day following the day upon which such subdivision or combination becomes effective.

(c) In case the Company shall issue rights or warrants (other than any rights or warrants referred to in Section 14.4(d)) to all holders of its outstanding Common Shares entitling them to subscribe for or purchase Common Shares (or securities convertible into Common Shares) at a price per share (or having a conversion price per share) less than the Current Market Price (as defined in Section 14.4(g)) on the Record Date fixed for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants, the Conversion Price shall be adjusted so that the same shall equal the price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect at the opening of business on the date after such Record Date by a fraction:

(i) the numerator of which shall be the number of Common Shares outstanding at the close of business on the Record Date plus the number of shares which the aggregate offering price of the total number of shares so offered for subscription or purchase (or the aggregate conversion price of the convertible securities so offered) would purchase at such Current Market Price, and

(ii) the denominator of which shall be the number of Common Shares outstanding on the close of business on the Record Date plus the total number of additional Common Shares so offered for subscription or purchase (or into which the convertible securities so offered are convertible).

Such adjustment shall become effective immediately after the opening of business on the day following the Record Date fixed for determination of shareholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants. To the extent that Common Shares (or securities convertible into Common Shares) are not delivered pursuant to such rights or warrants, upon the expiration or termination of such rights or warrants the Conversion Price shall be readjusted to the Conversion Price which would then be in effect had the adjustments made upon the issuance of such rights or warrants been made on the basis of the delivery of only the number of Common Shares (or securities convertible into Common Shares) actually delivered. In the event that such rights or warrants are not so issued, the Conversion Price shall again be adjusted to be the Conversion Price which would then be in effect if such date fixed for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants had not been fixed. In determining whether any rights or warrants entitle the holders to subscribe for or purchase Common Shares at less than such Current Market Price, and in determining the aggregate offering price of such Common Shares, there shall be taken into account any consideration received for such rights or warrants, the value of such consideration if other than cash, to be determined by the Board of Directors of the Issuer.

(d) In case the Company shall, by dividend or otherwise, distribute to all holders of its Common Shares any class of Capital Shares of the Company (other than any dividends or distributions to which Section 14.4(a) applies) or evidences of its indebtedness or other assets, including securities, but excluding (1) any rights or warrants referred to in Section 14.4(c), (2) any stock, securities or other property or assets (including cash) distributed as dividends or distributions in connection with a reclassification, change, merger, combination, sale, conveyance, consolidation or statutory share exchange to which Section 14.11 hereof applies and (3) any dividends or distributions paid exclusively in cash, (the securities described in foregoing are hereinafter in this Section 14.4(d) called the “securities”), then, in each such case, subject to the second paragraph of this Section 14.4(d), the Conversion Price shall be reduced so that the same shall be equal to the price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the Record Date (as defined in Section 14.4(g)) with respect to such distribution by a fraction:

(i) the numerator of which shall be the Current Market Price (determined as provided in Section 14.4(g)) on such date less the fair market value (as determined by the Board of Directors of the Issuer, whose determination shall be conclusive and set forth in a Board Resolution of the Issuer) on such date of the portion of the securities so distributed applicable to one Common Share (determined on the basis of the number of Common Shares outstanding on the Record Date), and

(ii) the denominator of which shall be such Current Market Price.

Such reduction shall become effective immediately prior to the opening of business on the day following the Record Date. However, in the event that the then fair market value (as so determined) of the portion of the securities so distributed applicable to one Common

Share is equal to or greater than the Current Market Price on the Record Date, in lieu of the foregoing adjustment, adequate provision shall be made so that each Holder shall have the right to receive upon conversion of a Note (or any portion thereof) the amount of securities such Holder would have received had such Holder converted such Note (or portion thereof) immediately prior to such Record Date. In the event that such dividend or distribution is not so paid or made, the Conversion Price shall again be adjusted to be the Conversion Price which would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared.

If the Board of Directors of the Issuer determines the fair market value of any distribution for purposes of this Section 14.4(d) by reference to the actual or when issued trading market for any securities comprising all or part of such distribution, it must in doing so consider the prices in such market over the same period (the “Reference Period”) used in computing the Current Market Price pursuant to Section 14.4(g) to the extent possible, unless the Board of Directors of the Issuer in a Board Resolution determines in good faith that determining the fair market value during the Reference Period would not be in the best interest of the Holder. For purposes of any calculation under this Section 14.4(d) in which the distribution consists of Capital Shares of one or more of the Company’s Subsidiaries or other business units, if such Capital Shares are listed or quoted on the New York Stock Exchange or other national or regional exchange or market and Closing Prices are available during the relevant calculation period, the fair market value of such Capital Shares so listed or quoted shall be the average of the daily Closing Prices per share or unit of such Capital Shares for the ten consecutive Trading Days commencing on and including the fifth Trading Day after the “ex” date (as defined in Section 14.4(g) hereof) with respect to the distribution requiring such computation.

Rights or warrants distributed by the Company to all holders of Common Shares entitling the holders thereof to subscribe for or purchase the Company’s Capital Shares (either initially or under certain circumstances), which rights or warrants, until the occurrence of a specified event or events (a “Trigger Event”):

(1) are deemed to be transferred with such Common Shares;

(2) are not exercisable; and

(3) are also issued in respect of future issuances of Common Shares,

shall be deemed not to have been distributed for purposes of this Section 14.4(d) (and no adjustment to the Conversion Price under this Section 14.4(d) will be required) until the occurrence of the earliest Trigger Event. If such right or warrant is subject to subsequent events, upon the occurrence of which such right or warrant shall become exercisable to purchase different securities, evidences of indebtedness or other assets or entitle the holder to purchase a different number or amount of the foregoing or to purchase any of the foregoing at a different purchase price, then the occurrence of each such event shall be deemed to be the date of issuance and record date with respect to a new right or warrant (and a termination or expiration of the existing right or warrant without exercise by the holder thereof). In addition, in the event of any distribution (or deemed distribution) of rights or warrants, or any Trigger Event or other event (of the type described in the preceding sentence) with respect thereto, that resulted in an adjustment to the Conversion Price under this Section 14.4(d):

(4) in the case of any such rights or warrants which shall all have been redeemed or repurchased without exercise by any holders thereof, the Conversion Price shall be readjusted upon such final redemption or repurchase to give effect to such distribution or Trigger Event, as the case may be, as though it were a cash distribution, equal to the per share redemption or repurchase price received by a holder of Common Shares with respect to such rights or warrant (assuming such holder had retained such rights or warrants), made to all holders of Common Shares as of the date of such redemption or repurchase, and

(5) in the case of such rights or warrants all of which shall have expired or been terminated without exercise, the Conversion Price shall be readjusted as if such rights and warrants had never been issued.

For purposes of this Section 14.4(d) and Sections 14.4(a), 14.4(b) and 14.4(c), any dividend or distribution to which this Section 14.4(d) is applicable that also includes Common Shares, a subdivision or combination of Common Shares to which Section 14.4(c) applies, or rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase Common Shares to which Section 14.4(c) applies (or any combination thereof), shall be deemed instead to be:

(6) a dividend or distribution of the evidences of indebtedness, assets, shares of capital stock, rights or warrants other than such Common Shares, such subdivision or combination or such rights or warrants to which Sections 14.4(a), 14.4(b) and 14.4(c) apply, respectively (and any Conversion Price reduction required by this Section 14.4(d) with respect to such dividend or distribution shall then be made), immediately followed by

(7) a dividend or distribution of such Common Shares, such subdivision or combination or such rights or warrants (and any further Conversion Price reduction required by Sections 14.4(a), 14.4(b) and 14.4(c) with respect to such dividend or distribution shall then be made), except:

(A) the Record Date of such dividend or distribution shall be substituted as (x) “the date fixed for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such dividend or other distribution,” “Record Date fixed for such determinations” and “Record Date” within the meaning of Section 14.4(a), (y) “the day upon which such subdivision becomes effective” and “the day upon which such combination becomes effective” within the meaning of Section 14.4(b), and (z) as “the date fixed for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants,” “the Record Date fixed for the determination of the shareholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants” and such “Record Date” within the meaning of Section 14.4(c), and

(B) any Common Shares included in such dividend or distribution shall not be deemed “outstanding at the close of business on the date fixed for such determination” within the meaning of Section 14.4(a) and any reduction or increase in the number of Common Shares resulting from such

subdivision or combination shall be disregarded in connection with such dividend or distribution.

(e) In case the Company shall, by dividend or otherwise, distribute to all holders of its Common Shares cash (excluding any cash that is distributed upon a reclassification, change, merger, combination, sale, conveyance, consolidation or statutory share exchange to which Section 14.11 hereof applies or as part of a distribution referred to in Section 14.4(d) hereof), then and in each such case, immediately after the close of business on the Record Date of such distribution, the Conversion Price shall be reduced so that the same shall equal the price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the close of business on such Record Date by a fraction:

(i) the numerator of which shall be equal to the Current Market Price on such Record Date less the full amount of such distribution, in each case, applicable to one Common Share, and

(ii) the denominator of which shall be equal to the Current Market Price on the Record Date.

However, as determined by the Board of Directors of the Issuer, whose determination shall be conclusive and set forth in a Board Resolution of the Issuer, the Issuer may in lieu of the foregoing adjustment, make adequate provision so that each Holder shall have the right to receive upon conversion of a Note (or any portion thereof) the amount of cash such Holder would have received had such Holder converted such Note (or portion thereof) immediately prior to such Record Date. In the event that such dividend or distribution is not so paid or made, the Conversion Price shall again be adjusted to be the Conversion Price which would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, adjustments to the Conversion Price resulting from the distribution of any quarterly cash dividends shall not cause the Conversion Rate to exceed 195.44 Common Shares per $1,000 principal amount of Notes (the “Quarterly Dividend Cap”). Each time that the Conversion Rate is adjusted by the Issuer pursuant to this Section 14.4 for any reason other than the distribution of any quarterly cash dividends, the Quarterly Dividend Cap shall be adjusted (rounded to the nearest one-ten thousandth of a share) in the same manner as the Conversion Rate is adjusted pursuant to this Section 14.4.

(f) In case a tender or exchange offer made by the Company or any of its subsidiaries to all holders of Common Shares for all or any portion of the Common Shares shall expire and such tender or exchange offer (as amended upon the expiration thereof) shall require the payment to shareholders (based on the acceptance (up to any maximum specified in the terms of the tender or exchange offer) of Purchased Shares (as defined below)) of an aggregate consideration having a fair market value (as determined by the Board of Directors of the Issuer, whose determination shall be conclusive and set forth in a Board Resolution of the Issuer), as of the expiration of such tender or exchange offer that exceeds the Current Market Price (determined as provided in Section 14.4(g)) as of the last time (the “Expiration Time”) tenders or exchanges could have been made pursuant to such tender or exchange offer (as it may be amended) times the number of Common Shares outstanding (including any tendered or

exchanged shares) on the Expiration Time, then, and in each such case, immediately prior to the opening of business on the day after the date of the Expiration Time, the Conversion Price shall be adjusted so that the same shall equal the price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to close of business on the date of the Expiration Time by a fraction:

(i) the numerator of which shall be the number of Common Shares outstanding (including any Purchased Shares) at the Expiration Time multiplied by the Current Market Price of the Common Shares on the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Time, and

(ii) the denominator shall be the sum of (x) the fair market value (determined by the Board of Directors of the Issuer, whose determination shall be conclusive and set forth in a Board Resolution of the Issuer) of the aggregate consideration payable to shareholders based on the acceptance (up to any maximum specified in the terms of the tender or exchange offer) of all shares validly tendered or exchanged and not withdrawn as of the Expiration Time (the shares deemed so accepted, up to any such maximum, being referred to as the “Purchased Shares”) and (y) the product of the number of Common Shares outstanding (less any Purchased Shares) as of the Expiration Time and the Current Market Price of the Common Shares on the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Time.

Such reduction (if any) shall become effective immediately prior to the opening of business on the day following the Expiration Time. In the event that 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 such purchases or all such purchases are rescinded, the Conversion Price shall again be adjusted to be the Conversion Price which would then be in effect if such tender or exchange offer had not been made. If the application of this Section 14.4(f) to any tender or exchange offer would result in an increase in the Conversion Price, no adjustment shall be made for such tender or exchange offer under this Section 14.4(f).

(g) For purposes of this Section 14.4, the following terms shall have the meanings indicated:

(1) “Current Market Price” shall mean the average of the daily Closing Prices per Common Share for the ten consecutive Trading Days ending on the earlier of the date of determination and the day before the “ex” date (as defined below) with respect to the distribution requiring such computation; provided, however, that for purposes of any calculation under Section 14.4(d) in which the distribution consists of Capital Shares of one or more of the Company’s Subsidiaries or other business units, the Current Market Price shall mean the average of the daily Closing Prices per Common Share for the ten consecutive Trading Days commencing on and including the fifth Trading Day after the “ex” date with respect to the distribution requiring such computation. For purposes of this definition, “ex” date shall mean:

(A) with respect to any issuance or distribution, means the first date on which the Common Shares trade regular way on the relevant exchange or

in the relevant market from which the Closing Price was obtained without the right to receive such issuance or distribution;

(B) with respect to any subdivision or combination of Common Shares, means the first date on which the Common Shares trade regular way on such exchange or in such market after the time at which such subdivision or combination becomes effective, and

(C) with respect to any tender or exchange offer, means the first date on which the Common Shares trade regular way on such exchange or in such market after the Expiration Time of such offer.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, whenever successive adjustments to the Conversion Price are called for pursuant to this Section 14.4, such adjustments shall be made to the Current Market Price as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the intent of this Section 14.4 and to avoid unjust or inequitable results as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Issuer.

(2) “fair market value” shall mean the amount which a willing buyer would pay a willing seller in an arm’s length transaction; provided, however, that for purposes of any calculation under Section 14.4(d) hereof in which the distribution consists of Capital Shares of one or more of the Company’s Subsidiaries or other business units, if such Capital Shares are listed or quoted on the New York Stock Exchange or other national or regional exchange or market and Closing Prices are available during the relevant calculation period, the fair market value of such Capital Shares so listed or quoted shall be the average of the daily Closing Prices per share or unit of such Capital Shares for the ten consecutive Trading Days commencing on and including the fifth Trading Day after the “ex” date (as defined in this Section 14.4(g)) with respect to the distribution requiring such computation.

(3) “Record Date” shall mean, with respect to any dividend, distribution or other transaction or event in which the holders of Common Shares have the right to receive any cash, securities or other property or in which the Common Shares (or other applicable security) is exchanged for or converted into any combination of cash, securities or other property, the date fixed for determination of shareholders entitled to receive such cash, securities or other property (whether such date is fixed by the Board of Directors of the Company or by statute, contract or otherwise).

(h) The Issuer may make such reductions in the Conversion Price, in addition to those required by Sections 14.4(a), (b), (c), (d), (e) or (f), as the Board of Directors of the Issuer considers to be advisable to avoid or diminish any income tax to holders of Common Shares or rights to purchase Common Shares resulting from any dividend or distribution of stock (or rights to acquire stock) or from any event treated as such for income tax purposes.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Issuer from time to time may reduce the Conversion Price by any amount for any period of time if the period is at least 20 days and the reduction is irrevocable during the period and the Board of Directors of the Issuer

determines in good faith that such reduction would be in the best interests of the Issuer, which determination shall be conclusive and set forth in a Board Resolution of the Issuer. Whenever the Conversion Price is reduced pursuant to the preceding sentence, the Issuer shall mail to the Trustee and each Holder at the address of such Holder as it appears in the Register a notice of the reduction at least 15 days prior to the date the reduced Conversion Price takes effect, and such notice shall state the reduced Conversion Price and the period during which it will be in effect.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, any action taken under the two immediately preceding paragraphs shall be subject to approval of the New York Stock Exchange and the Toronto Stock Exchange (or other applicable regulatory approval).

Adjustment to the Conversion Price is not necessary if Holders may participate in the transactions otherwise giving rise to an adjustment on a basis and with notice that the Board of Directors of the Issuer determines to be fair and appropriate. Such participation is subject to acceptance by the New York Stock Exchange and the Toronto Stock Exchange. In cases where the fair market value of the portion of assets, debt securities or rights, warrants or options to purchase securities of the Company applicable to one Common Share distributed to shareholders exceeds the average sale price per Common Share, or the average sale price per share of options on Common Shares so distributed by less than $1.00, rather than being entitled to an adjustment in the Conversion Price, a Holder, upon conversion of a Note, will be entitled to receive (in addition to the Common Shares into which such Note is convertible) the kind and amounts of assets, debt securities or rights, options or warrants comprising the distribution that such Holder would have received if such Holder had converted such Note immediately prior to the record date for determining the shareholders entitled to receive such distribution.

(i) No adjustment in the Conversion Price shall be required unless such adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least 1% in such price; provided, however, that any adjustments which by reason of this Section 14.4(i) are not required to be made shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment. All calculations under this Article XIV shall be made by the Issuer and shall be made to the nearest cent or to the nearest one-hundredth (1/100th) of a share, as the case may be. No adjustment need be made for a change in the par value or no par value of the Common Shares.

(j) In any case in which this Section 14.4 provides that an adjustment shall become effective immediately after a Record Date for an event, the Issuer may defer until the occurrence of such event (i) issuing to the Holder of any Note converted after such Record Date and before the occurrence of such event the additional Common Shares issuable upon such conversion by reason of the adjustment required by such event over and above the Common Shares issuable upon such conversion before giving effect to such adjustment and (ii) paying to such holder any amount in cash in lieu of any fraction pursuant to Section 14.3 hereof.

(k) For purposes of this Section 14.4, the number of Common Shares at any time outstanding shall not include shares held in the treasury of the Company but shall include shares issuable in respect of scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of Common Shares. The Company will not pay any dividend or make any distribution on Common Shares held in the treasury of the Company.

(l) If the distribution date for the rights provided in the Company’s rights agreement, if any, occurs prior to the date a Note is converted, (i) the Holder of the Note who converts such Note after the distribution date is entitled to receive the rights that would otherwise be attached (but for the date of conversion) to the Common Shares received upon such conversion and (ii) no adjustment shall be made to the Conversion Price pursuant to clause 14.4(b).

SECTION 14.5 NOTICE OF ADJUSTMENTS OF CONVERSION PRICE.

Whenever the Conversion Price is adjusted as herein provided (other than in the case of an adjustment pursuant to the second paragraph of Section 14.4(h) for which the notice required by such paragraph has been provided), the Issuer shall promptly file with the Trustee and any Conversion Agent an Officers’ Certificate of the Issuer setting forth the adjusted Conversion Price and showing in reasonable detail the facts upon which such adjustment is based; provided that the Trustee shall have no duty or obligation to verify the accuracy of the adjusted Conversion Price. Promptly after delivery of such Issuer Officers’ Certificate, the Issuer shall prepare a notice stating that the Conversion Price has been adjusted and setting forth the adjusted Conversion Price and the date on which each adjustment becomes effective, and shall mail such notice to each Holder at the address of such Holder as it appears in the Register within 20 days of the effective date of such adjustment. Failure to deliver such notice shall not effect the legality or validity of any such adjustment.

SECTION 14.6 NOTICE PRIOR TO CERTAIN ACTIONS.

In case at any time after the date hereof:

(1) the Company shall declare a dividend (or any other distribution) on its Common Shares payable otherwise than in cash out of its capital surplus or its consolidated retained earnings;

(2) the Company shall authorize the granting to the holders of its Common Shares of rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any shares of capital stock of any class (or of securities convertible into shares of capital stock of any class) or of any other rights;

(3) there shall occur any reclassification of the Common Shares of the Company (other than a subdivision or combination of its outstanding Common Shares, a change in par value, a change from par value to no par value or a change from no par value to par value), or any merger, consolidation, statutory share exchange or combination to which the Company is a party and for which approval of any shareholders of the Company is required, or the sale, transfer or conveyance of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company; or

(4) there shall occur the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company;

the Issuer shall cause to be filed at each office or agency maintained for the purpose of conversion of securities pursuant to Section 10.2 hereof, and shall cause to be provided to the

Trustee and all Holders in accordance with Section 16.2 hereof, at least 20 days (or 10 days in any case specified in clause (1) or (2) above) prior to the applicable record or effective date hereinafter specified, a notice stating:

(A) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution, rights or warrants, or, if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of Common Shares of record to be entitled to such dividend, distribution, rights or warrants are to be determined, or

(B) the date on which such reclassification, merger, consolidation, statutory share exchange, combination, sale, transfer, conveyance, dissolution, liquidation or winding up is expected to become effective, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of Common Shares of record shall be entitled to exchange their Common Shares for securities, cash or other property deliverable upon such reclassification, merger, consolidation, statutory share exchange, sale, transfer, dissolution, liquidation or winding up.

Neither the failure to give such notice nor any defect therein shall affect the legality or validity of the proceedings or actions described in clauses (1) through (4) of this Section 14.6.

SECTION 14.7 COMPANY TO RESERVE COMMON SHARES; INTERCOMPANY AGREEMENT.

(a) The Company shall at all times use its best efforts to reserve and keep available, free from preemptive rights, out of its authorized but unissued Common Shares, for the purpose of effecting the conversion of Notes, the full number of fully paid and nonassessable Common Shares then issuable upon the conversion of all outstanding Notes.

(b) The Issuer and the Company will have agreed to contribute the Common Shares issuable upon conversion of the Notes pursuant to this Article XIV to the Issuer by the date hereof.

SECTION 14.8 TAXES ON CONVERSIONS.

Except as provided in the next sentence, the Issuer will pay any and all taxes (other than taxes on income) and duties that may be payable in respect of the issue or delivery of Common Shares on conversion of Notes pursuant hereto. A Holder delivering a Note for conversion shall be liable for and will be required to pay any tax or duty which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issue and delivery of Common Shares in a name other than that of the Holder of the Note or Notes to be converted, and no such issue or delivery shall be made unless the Person requesting such issue has paid to the Issuer the amount of any such tax or duty, or has established to the satisfaction of the Issuer that such tax or duty has been paid.

SECTION 14.9 COVENANT AS TO COMMON SHARES.

The Issuer and the Company, jointly and severally, covenant that all Common Shares which may be issued upon conversion of Notes will upon issue be fully paid and

nonassessable and, except as provided in Section 14.8, the Issuer will pay all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issue thereof.

SECTION 14.10 CANCELLATION OF CONVERTED NOTES.

All Notes delivered for conversion shall be delivered to the Trustee to be canceled by or at the direction of the Trustee, which shall dispose of the same as provided in Section 2.11.

SECTION 14.11 EFFECT OF RECLASSIFICATION, CONSOLIDATION, MERGER OR SALE.

If any of following events occur, namely:

(i) any reclassification or change of the outstanding Common Shares (including a compulsory share exchange but other than changes resulting from a subdivision or combination), as a result of which holders of Common Shares shall be entitled to receive stock, securities or other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) with respect to or in exchange for such Common Shares,

(ii) any merger, consolidation, statutory share exchange or combination of the Company with another corporation as a result of which holders of Common Shares shall be entitled to receive stock, securities or other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) with respect to or in exchange for such Common Shares or

(iii) any sale or conveyance of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Company to any other Person as a result of which holders of Common Shares shall be entitled to receive stock, securities or other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) with respect to or in exchange for such Common Shares,

then the Issuer and the Company or the successor or purchasing corporation, as the case may be, shall execute with the Trustee a supplemental indenture (which shall comply with the TIA as in force at the date of execution of such supplemental indenture if such supplemental indenture is then required to so comply) providing that each Note shall be convertible into the kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities or property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) which the Holder thereof would have been entitled to receive upon such reclassification, change, merger, consolidation, statutory share exchange, combination, sale or conveyance had such Notes been converted into Common Shares immediately prior to such reclassification, change, merger, consolidation, statutory share exchange, combination, sale or conveyance assuming such holder of Common Shares did not exercise its rights of election, if any, as to the kind or amount of securities, cash or other property receivable upon such merger, consolidation, statutory share exchange, sale or conveyance (provided that, if the kind or amount of securities, cash or other property receivable upon such merger, consolidation, statutory share exchange, sale or conveyance is not the same for each Common Share in respect of which such rights of election shall not have been exercised (“Non-Electing Share”), then for the purposes of this Section 14.11 the kind and amount of securities, cash or other property receivable upon such merger, consolidation, statutory share exchange, sale or conveyance for each Non-Electing Share shall be deemed to be the kind and amount so receivable per share by a plurality of the Non-

Electing Shares). The Trustee shall be entitled to rely on an Opinion of Counsel of the Issuer and the Company as to whether any such supplemental indenture is required to and does comply with the TIA. Such supplemental indenture shall provide for adjustments which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Article XIV. If, in the case of any such reclassification, change, merger, consolidation, statutory share exchange, combination, sale or conveyance, the stock or other securities and assets receivable thereupon by a holder of Common Shares includes shares of stock or other securities and assets of a corporation other than the successor or purchasing corporation, as the case may be, in such reclassification, change, merger, consolidation, statutory share exchange, combination, sale or conveyance, 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 Boards of Directors of the Issuer and the Company 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 XIII hereof.

The Issuer shall cause notice of the execution of such supplemental indenture to be mailed to each Holder, at the address of such Holder as it appears on the Register, within 20 days after execution thereof. Failure to deliver such notice shall not affect the legality or validity of such supplemental indenture.

The above provisions of this Section 14.11 shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications, mergers, consolidations, statutory share exchanges, combinations, sales and conveyances.

If this Section 14.11 applies to any event or occurrence, Section 14.4 hereof shall not apply.

SECTION 14.12 RESPONSIBILITY OF TRUSTEE FOR CONVERSION PROVISIONS.

The Trustee, subject to the provisions of Section 6.1 hereof, and any Conversion Agent shall not at any time be under any duty or responsibility to any Holder of Notes to determine whether any facts exist which may require any adjustment of the Conversion Price, or with respect to the nature or intent of any such adjustments 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, subject to the provisions of Section 6.1 hereof, nor any Conversion Agent shall be accountable with respect to the validity or value (of the kind or amount) of any Common Shares, or of any other securities or property, which may at any time be issued or delivered upon the conversion of any Note; and it or they do not make any representation with respect thereto. Neither the Trustee, subject to the provisions of Section 6.1 hereof, nor any Conversion Agent shall be responsible for any failure of the Issuer or the Company to make any cash payment or to issue, transfer or deliver any shares or share certificates or other securities or property upon the surrender of any Note for the purpose of conversion; and the Trustee, subject to the provisions of Section 6.1 hereof, and any Conversion Agent shall not be responsible or liable for any failure of the Issuer or the Company to comply with any of the covenants of the Issuer or the Company contained in this Article XIV.

SECTION 14.13 LIMITATION ON CONVERSION RIGHT.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article, any Holder of a Note shall not have the right to convert any Note to the extent that, after giving effect to such conversion, the Holder (together with the Holder’s affiliates), as set forth on the applicable conversion notice, would beneficially own in excess of 9.99% of the number of Common Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to such conversion. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of Common Shares beneficially owned by the Holder and its affiliates shall include the number of Common Shares issuable upon conversion of the Note with respect to which the determination of such sentence is being made, but shall exclude the number of Common Shares which would be issuable upon (A) conversion of the remaining, nonconverted portion of the Note beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its affiliates and (B) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or nonconverted portion of any other securities of the Issuer or the Company (including, without limitation, any other Notes) subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein, beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its affiliates. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section 14.13, beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act. For purposes of this Section 14.13, in determining the number of outstanding Common Shares, the Holder may rely on the number of outstanding Common Shares as reflected in (x) the Company’s most recent Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or Annual Report on Form 10-K, as the case may be, (y) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (z) any subsequent notice by the Issuer, the Company or the Company’s transfer agent setting forth the number of Common Shares outstanding. Upon the written or oral request of the Holder, the Company shall promptly confirm in writing to the Holder the number of Common Shares then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding Common Shares shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including the Note, by the Holder or its affiliates since the date as of which such number of outstanding Common Shares was reported. Neither the Trustee nor the Conversion Agent shall be responsible for monitoring compliance with this Section 14.13 and, absent written direction from the Issuer or Company to the contrary, may assume that any Conversion Notice complies with this restriction.

SECTION 14.14 OPTION TO SATISFY CONVERSION OBLIGATION WITH CASH, COMMON SHARES OR A COMBINATION THEREOF

(a) Except to the extent that the Issuer has irrevocably elected to make a cash payment of principal upon conversion pursuant to Section 14.14(b), the Issuer may, in lieu of delivery of Common Shares in satisfaction of the Issuer’s obligation upon conversion of the Notes by any Holder, elect to deliver cash or a combination of cash and Common Shares. The Issuer shall notify such Holder through the Trustee of the method the Issuer chooses to satisfy its obligation upon conversion, including the Make Whole Premium, if any, (the “Conversion Obligation”), (i) in the Issuer’s notice of redemption, if the Issuer has called the Notes for redemption, (ii) 26 Trading Days immediately preceding the Maturity Date in respect of Notes to be converted during the period beginning 25 Trading Days immediately preceding the Maturity Date and ending one Trading Day immediately preceding the Maturity Date, and (iii) no later than two Trading Days immediately following the Conversion Date in all other cases (such period, the “Settlement Notice Period”). If the Issuer elects to satisfy any portion of its Conversion Obligation in cash, the Issuer shall specify in such notice the amount to be satisfied

in cash either as a percentage of the Conversion Obligation or as a fixed dollar amount. The Issuer shall treat all holders converting on the same Trading Day in the same manner. The Issuer shall not have any obligation to satisfy Conversion Obligations arising on different Trading Days in the same manner.

Except to the extent the Issuer has irrevocably elected to make a cash payment of principal upon conversion, if the Issuer elects to satisfy any portion of its conversion obligation in cash (other than cash in lieu of fractional shares), such Holder may retract its Conversion Notice at any time during the two Trading Day period beginning on the Trading Day after the Issuer has notified the Trustee of its method of settlement (the “Conversion Retraction Period”). A Holder cannot retract its Conversion Notice if: (a) the Issuer elected to make a cash payment of principal upon conversion before such Holder delivered its Conversion Notice; (b) such Holder is converting its Notes in connection with a redemption; (c) such Holder is converting its Notes during the period beginning 25 Trading Days preceding the Maturity Date and ending one Trading Day preceding the Maturity Date; or (d) the Issuer does not elect to satisfy any portion of its conversion obligation in cash (other than cash in lieu of fractional shares).

With respect to each Holder that exercises its conversion right in accordance with this Indenture, if such Holder’s Conversion Notice has not been retracted, assuming all of the other requirements have been satisfied by such Holder, then settlement (a) in Common Shares only shall occur as soon as practicable after the Issuer notifies the Trustee that settlement shall be in Common Shares only, and (b) in cash or in a combination of cash and Common Shares shall occur on the second Trading Day following the final Trading Day of the Cash Settlement Averaging Period. Such day will be the 26th Trading Day following the receipt by the Issuer of a Holder’s Conversion Notice (if such Holder does not retract its Conversion Notice and assuming all other conversion requirements have been satisfied), unless conversion is:

(i) in connection with a redemption, in which case such day will be the Redemption Date;

(ii) during the period beginning 25 Trading Days preceding the Maturity Date and ending one Trading Day preceding the Maturity Date, in which case such day will be the Maturity Date (whether or not the Issuer has irrevocably elected to make a cash payment of principal upon conversion); or

(iii) after the Issuer has irrevocably elected to make a cash payment of principal upon conversion, in which case such day will be the 22nd Trading Day following the receipt by the Issuer of such Holder’s Conversion Notice; provided, however, that if the Issuer has irrevocably elected to make a cash payment of principal upon conversion and conversion is during the period beginning 25 Trading Days preceding the Maturity Date and ending one Trading Day preceding the Maturity Date, such day will be the Maturity Date.

The settlement amount will be computed as follows:

(i) if the Issuer elects to satisfy the entire Conversion Obligation in Common Shares, the Issuer will deliver to such holder a number of shares of Common Shares equal

to (1) the aggregate principal amount of the Notes to be converted divided by 1,000, multiplied by (2) the Conversion Rate in effect on the Conversion Date (plus cash in lieu of fractional shares calculated as provided in Section 14.3);

(ii) if the Issuer elects to satisfy the entire Conversion Obligation in cash, the Issuer will deliver to such Holder cash in an amount equal to the sum of the Daily Cash Amounts for each day during the Cash Settlement Averaging Period.

The “Daily Cash Amount” means, for each day during the Cash Settlement Averaging Period, the product of:

(1) a number equal to (A) the aggregate principal amount of notes to be converted divided by 1,000 and multiplied by (B) the Conversion Rate in effect on the Conversion Date;

(2) the Applicable Daily Share Price; and

(3) 5%.

(iii) If the Issuer elects to satisfy the Conversion Obligation in a combination of cash and common shares, it will deliver to the Holder:

(1) cash in an amount equal to (A) the fixed dollar amount per $1,000 principal amount of Notes (which fixed dollar amount will be specified in the notice regarding the chosen method of settlement) multiplied by the quotient of the aggregate principal amount of Notes to be converted divided by 1,000, or (B) the sum of the products, for each day during the Cash Settlement Averaging Period, of the percentage of the Conversion Obligation to be settled in cash (which percentage will be specified in the notice regarding the chosen method of settlement) multiplied by the Daily Cash Amount for such day that would be paid pursuant to clause (ii) above, as the case may be (the “Cash Amount”); and

(2) a number of Common Shares equal to (A)(I) the aggregate principal amount of Notes to be converted divided by 1,000 and multiplied by (II) the Conversion Rate in effect on the Conversion Date, minus (B), if the Cash Amount is determined pursuant to clause (A) in the immediately preceding subsection (1), the sum of the results, for each day during the Cash Settlement Averaging Period, of the Cash Amount multiplied by 5% and divided by the Applicable Daily Share Price, or minus (C) if the Cash Amount is determined pursuant to clause (B) in the immediately preceding subsection (1), the sum of the results, for each day during the Cash Settlement Averaging Period, of the percentage of the Conversion Obligation to be settled in cash (which percentage will be specified in the notice regarding the chosen method of settlement) multiplied by the Daily Cash Amount and divided by the Applicable Daily Share Price.

The “Applicable Daily Share Price” means, for any Trading Day, the Closing Price of a Common Share on such Trading Day.

The “Cash Settlement Averaging Period” means the 20 Trading Day period:

(i) ending on the second Trading Day preceding the Redemption Date, if the Issuer has called the notes for redemption;

(ii) ending on the second Trading Day preceding the Maturity Date, with respect to Conversion Notices received during the period beginning 25 Trading Days preceding the Maturity Date and ending one Trading Day preceding the Maturity Date (whether or not the Issuer has irrevocably elected to make a cash payment of principal upon conversion);

(iii) beginning on the second Trading Day following the receipt by the Issuer of a Holder’s Conversion Notice, if the Issuer has irrevocably elected to make a cash payment of principal upon conversion; provided, however, that if the Issuer has irrevocably elected to make a cash payment of principal upon conversion and such Holder submit its Conversion Notice during the period beginning 25 Trading Days preceding the Maturity Date and ending one Trading Day preceding the Maturity Date, the Cash Settlement Averaging Period shall end on the second Trading Day preceding the Maturity Date; and

(iv) beginning on the second Trading Day following the final Trading Day of the Conversion Retraction Period, in all other cases.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture, at any time on or prior to the 26th Trading Day preceding the Maturity Date, the Issuer may irrevocably elect, in its sole discretion without the consent of the Holders of the Notes, by written notice to the Trustee and the Holders of the Notes, to satisfy in cash the Conversion Obligation with respect to the principal amount of Notes to be converted after the date of such election, with any remaining amount of the Conversion Obligation to be satisfied in cash and/or Common Shares. If the Issuer makes such election, the Issuer will notify the Trustee and the Holders of Notes at their addresses shown in the Register of the Registrar. The settlement amount will be computed as follows:

(i) a cash amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of Notes to be converted; and

(ii) (1) if the Issuer elects to satisfy any remaining amount in Common Shares, the Issuer will deliver to the Holder a number of Common Shares equal to:

(A) the aggregate principal amount of the Notes to be converted divided by 1,000, and multiplied by

(B) (1) the Conversion Rate in effect on the Conversion Date minus (2) $1,000 divided by the sum of the Applicable Daily Share Prices for each day during the Cash Settlement Averaging Period multiplied by 5% plus cash in lieu of fractional shares calculated as provided in Section 14.3,

(2) if the Issuer elects to satisfy any remaining amount in cash, the Issuer will deliver to the Holder cash in an amount equal to (A) the sum of the Daily Cash Amounts for each day during the Cash Settlement Averaging Period, minus (B) $1,000

divided by the sum of the Applicable Daily Share Prices for each day during the Cash Settlement Averaging Period multiplied by 5%, and

(3) if the Issuer elects to satisfy any remaining amount in a combination of cash and Common Shares, it will deliver to the Holder such combination in the respective amounts calculated in a manner comparable to that used to settle any conversion (as described above), and with the amount of cash specified by the Issuer as contemplated in connection with any such conversion.

ARTICLE XV
SUBORDINATION OF NOTES

SECTION 15.1 NOTES SUBORDINATED TO SENIOR DEBT.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the Issuer, the Company and the Trustee each covenants and agrees, and each Holder, by its acceptance of a Note, likewise covenants and agrees, that all Notes shall be issued subject to the provisions of this Article XV and each Person holding any Note, whether upon original issue or upon transfer, assignment or exchange thereof, accepts and agrees that the Notes, and all payments in respect thereof including any payments on account of the Make Whole Premium, shall, to the extent set forth in this Article XV, be subordinated in right of payment to the prior payment in full, in cash or cash equivalents, of all amounts that constitute Senior Debt, including, without limitation, the Issuer’s obligations under the Senior Bank Facilities.

The Notes will be on parity in the right of payment with the Issuer’s other existing and future liabilities that are not otherwise subordinated in favor of the notes.

The Notes will be senior in the right of payment to all other indebtedness of the Issuer that by its terms is expressly subordinate to the Notes.

SECTION 15.2 NO PAYMENT ON NOTES IN CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES.

(a) No direct or indirect payment on account of the Notes or on account of the purchase or redemption or other acquisition of Notes by or on behalf of the Issuer shall be made if, at the time of such payment, there shall have occurred and be continuing a default in the payment of principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on Senior Debt (including without limitation upon acceleration of the maturity thereof) when due (a “Senior Payment Default”).

(b) In addition, if any default (other than a Senior Payment Default) with respect to any Senior Debt permitting, or which with the giving of notice of lapse of time (or both) would permit, the holders thereof (or a trustee on behalf thereof) to accelerate the maturity thereof (a “Senior Non-monetary Default”) has occurred and is continuing and the Issuer and the Trustee have received written notice thereof from the agent bank for any Credit Facility Debt or from an authorized person on behalf of Designated Senior Debt, then the Issuer may not make any payments on account of the Notes or on account of the purchase or redemption or other acquisition of Notes or on account of the purchase or redemption or other acquisition Notes for a period (a “Payment Blockage Period”) commencing on the date the Issuer and the Trustee receive such written notice and ending on the earlier of (i) 179 days after such date or on the date

on which the Trustee receives notice from the agent bank for the Credit Facility Debt or from any authorized person on behalf of any Designated Senior Debt, as applicable, rescinding such notice and (ii) the date, if any, on which the Senior Debt to which such default relates is discharged or such default is waived or otherwise cured provided that no other default then exists except, in each case, any acceleration of the Senior Debt.

(c) Not more than one Payment Blockage Period pursuant to Section 15.2(b) or 15.2(c) may be commenced with respect to the Notes during any period of 360 consecutive days; provided that, subject to the limitations set forth in the next sentence, the commencement of a Payment Blockage Period by the representatives for, or the holders of, Designated Senior Debt, other than under the Credit Facility Debt, shall not bar the commencement of another Payment Blockage Period by the agent bank for the Credit Facility Debt within such period of 360 consecutive days. Notwithstanding anything in this Indenture to the contrary, there must be 180 consecutive days in any 360-day period in which no Payment Blockage Period is in effect. For all purposes of Section 15.2(b) or 15.2(c), no event of default that existed or was continuing (it being acknowledged that any subsequent action that would give rise to an event of default pursuant to any provision under which an event of default previously existed or was continuing shall constitute a new event of default for this purpose) on the date of the commencement of any Payment Blockage Period with respect to the Designated Senior Debt or Credit Facility Debt initiating such Payment Blockage Period shall be, or shall be made, the basis for the commencement of a second Payment Blockage Period by the representative for, or the holders of, such Designated Senior Debt or Credit Facility Debt, whether or not within a period of 360 consecutive days, unless such event of default shall have been cured or waived for a period of not less than 90 consecutive days.

SECTION 15.3 PAYMENT OVER OF PROCEEDS UPON DISSOLUTION, ETC.

(a) Upon any payment or distribution of assets or securities of the Issuer to creditors of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, in connection with any dissolution or winding up or total or partial liquidation or reorganization of the Issuer, whether voluntary or involuntary, or in a bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or other proceedings, the holders of Senior Debt will first be entitled to receive payment in full in cash or cash equivalents of principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on such Senior Debt (whether or not allowed in such proceeding) before the Holders are entitled to receive any payment of principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on the notes or on account of the purchase or redemption or other acquisition of the Notes by the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries. In the event that notwithstanding the foregoing, the Trustee or the Holder of any Note receives any payment or distribution of the Issuer’s assets of any kind or character (excluding shares of Issuer’s common stock or securities provided for in a plan reorganization or readjustment which are subordinate in right of payment to all Senior Debt to substantially the same extent as the Notes are so subordinated) before all the Senior Debt is paid in full, then such payment or distribution will be required to be paid over or delivered forthwith to the trustee in bankruptcy or other Person making payment or distribution of our assets for application to the payment of all Senior Debt remaining unpaid, to the extent necessary to pay the Senior Debt in full.

(b) To the extent any payment of Senior Debt of the Issuer (whether by or on behalf of the Issuer, as proceeds of security or enforcement of any right of setoff or otherwise) is

declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be paid to any receiver, trustee in bankruptcy, liquidating trustee, agent or other similar Person under any bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, fraudulent conveyance or similar law, then if such payment is recovered by, or paid over to, such receiver, trustee in bankruptcy, liquidating trustee, agent or other similar Person, the Senior Debt of the Issuer or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be deemed to be reinstated and outstanding as if such payment had not occurred. To the extent the obligation to repay any Senior Debt of the Issuer is declared to be fraudulent, invalid or otherwise set aside under any bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, fraudulent conveyance or similar law, then the obligations so declared fraudulent, invalid or otherwise set aside (and all other amounts that would come due with respect thereto had such obligation not been so affected) shall be deemed to be reinstated and outstanding as Senior Debt of the Issuer for all purposes of this Indenture as if such declaration, invalidity or setting aside had not occurred.

(c) In the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing provision prohibiting such payment or distribution, any payment or distribution of assets or securities of the Issuer of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, shall be received by the Trustee or any Holder at a time when such payment or distribution is prohibited by Section 15.3(a) and before all obligations in respect of Senior Debt of the Issuer are paid in full, in cash or cash equivalents, such payment or distribution shall be received and held in trust for the benefit of, and shall be paid over or delivered to, the holders of Senior Debt of the Issuer (pro rata to such holders on the basis of the respective amounts of Senior Debt of the Issuer held by such holders) or their representatives or to the trustee or trustees under any indenture pursuant to which any such Senior Debt of the Issuer may have been issued, as their respective interests appear, for application to the payment of Senior Debt of the Issuer remaining unpaid until all such Senior Debt of the Issuer has been paid in full, in cash or cash equivalents, after giving effect to any concurrent payment, distribution or provision therefor to or for the holders of such Senior Debt of the Issuer.

(d) The consolidation of the Issuer with, or the merger of the Issuer with or into, another Person or the liquidation or dissolution of the Issuer following the sale, conveyance, transfer, lease or other disposition of all or substantially all of its property and assets to another Person upon the terms and conditions provided in Article VII hereof shall not be deemed a dissolution, winding up, liquidation or reorganization for the purposes of this Section 15.3 if such other Person shall, as a part of such consolidation, merger, sale, conveyance, transfer, lease or other disposition, comply (to the extent required) with the conditions stated in Article VII hereof.

SECTION 15.4 SUBROGATION.

Upon the payment in full of all Senior Debt in cash or cash equivalents, the Holders shall be subrogated to the rights of the holders of Senior Debt to receive payments or distributions of cash, property or securities of the Issuer made on such Senior Debt until the principal of and interest on the Notes shall be paid in full; and, for the purposes of such subrogation, no payments or distributions to the holders of such Senior Debt of any cash, property or securities to which the Holders or the Trustee on their behalf would be entitled except for the provisions of this Article XV, and no payment pursuant to the provisions of this

Article XV to the holders of Senior Debt by Holders or the Trustee on their behalf shall, as between the Issuer, its creditors other than holders of Senior Debt, and the Holders, be deemed to be a payment by the Issuer to or on account of the Senior Debt. It is understood that the provisions of this Article XV are intended solely for the purpose of defining the relative rights of the Holders, on the one hand, and the holders of the Senior Debt, on the other hand.

SECTION 15.5 OBLIGATIONS OF THE ISSUER UNCONDITIONAL.

(a) Nothing contained in this Article XV or elsewhere in this Indenture or in the Notes is intended to or shall impair, as among the Issuer and the Holders, the obligation of the Issuer, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay to the Holders the principal of and interest on the Notes as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with their terms, or is intended to or shall affect the relative rights of the Holders and creditors of the Issuer other than the holders of the Senior Debt, nor shall anything herein or therein prevent the Holders or the Trustee on their behalf from exercising all remedies otherwise permitted by applicable law upon default under this Indenture, subject to the rights, if any, under this Article XV of the holders of the Senior Debt.

(b) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, nothing contained in this Article XV will restrict the right of the Trustee or the Holders to take any action to declare the Notes to be due and payable prior to their maturity or to pursue any rights or remedies hereunder; provided, however, that all Senior Debt then due and payable or thereafter declared to be due and payable shall first be paid in full, in cash or cash equivalents, before the Holders or the Trustee are entitled to receive any direct or indirect payment from the Issuer under the Notes.

SECTION 15.6 NOTICE TO TRUSTEE.

(a) The Issuer shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any fact known to the Issuer that would prohibit the making of any payment to or by the Trustee in respect of the Notes pursuant to the provisions of this Article XV. The Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of the existence of any Senior Payment Default or Senior Non-monetary Default with respect to any Senior Debt or of any other facts that would prohibit the making of any payment to or by the Trustee unless and until the Trustee shall have received notice in writing to that effect signed by an Officer of the Issuer, or by a holder of Senior Debt or trustee or agent thereof; and prior to the receipt of any such written notice, the Trustee shall, subject to this Article XV, be entitled to assume that no such facts exist; provided that, if the Trustee shall not have received the notice provided for in this Section 15.6 at least two Business Days prior to the date upon which, by the terms of this Indenture, any monies shall become payable for any purpose (including, without limitation, the payment of the principal of or interest on any Note), then, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Trustee shall have full power and authority to receive any monies from the Issuer and to apply the same to the purpose for which they were received, and shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary that may be received by it on or after such prior date except for an acceleration of the Notes prior to such application. Nothing contained in this Section 15.6 shall limit the right of the holders of Senior Debt to recover payments as contemplated by this Article XV. The foregoing shall not apply if the paying agent is the Issuer. The Trustee shall be entitled to rely on the delivery to it of a written notice by a Person representing himself or itself to be a holder of any Senior Debt (or a

trustee on behalf of, or other representative of, such holder) to establish that such notice has been given by a holder of such Senior Debt or a trustee or representative on behalf of any such holder.

(b) In the event that the Trustee determines in good faith that any evidence is required with respect to the right of any Person as a holder of Senior Debt to participate in any payment or distribution pursuant to this Article XV, the Trustee may request such Person to furnish evidence to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee as to the amount of Senior Debt held by such Person, the extent to which such Person is entitled to participate in such payment or distribution and any other facts pertinent to the rights of such Person under this Article XV and, if such evidence is not furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee may defer any payment to such Person pending judicial determination as to the right of such Person to receive such payment.

SECTION 15.7 RELIANCE ON JUDICIAL ORDER OR CERTIFICATE OF LIQUIDATING AGENT.

Upon any payment or distribution of assets or securities referred to in this Article XV, the Trustee and the Holders shall be entitled to rely upon any order or decree made by any court of competent jurisdiction in which bankruptcy, dissolution, winding up, liquidation or reorganization proceedings are pending, or upon a certificate of the receiver, trustee in bankruptcy, liquidating trustee, agent or other similar Person making such payment or distribution, delivered to the Trustee or to the Holders for the purpose of ascertaining the persons entitled to participate in such distribution, the holders of the Senior Debt and other indebtedness of the Issuer, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid or distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Article XV.

SECTION 15.8 TRUSTEE’S RELATION TO SENIOR DEBT.

(a) The Trustee and any paying agent shall be entitled to all the rights set forth in this Article XV with respect to any Senior Debt that may at any time be held by it in its individual or any other capacity to the same extent as any other holder of Senior Debt and nothing in this Indenture shall deprive the Trustee or any paying agent of any of its rights as such holder.

(b) With respect to the holders of Senior Debt, the Trustee undertakes to perform or to observe only such of its covenants and obligations as are specifically set forth in this Article XV, and no implied covenants or obligations with respect to the holders of Senior Debt shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee. The Trustee shall not be deemed to owe any fiduciary duty to the holders of Senior Debt (except as provided in Section 15.2(b), Section 15.3(a) and Section 15.3(c)).

SECTION 15.9 SUBORDINATION RIGHTS NOT IMPAIRED BY ACTS OR OMISSIONS OF THE ISSUER OR HOLDERS OF SENIOR DEBT.

No right of any present or future holders of any Senior Debt to enforce subordination as provided in this Article XV will at any time in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of the Issuer or by any act or failure to act, in good faith, by any such holder, or by any noncompliance by the Issuer with the terms of this Indenture, regardless of any knowledge thereof that any such holder may have or otherwise be

charged with. The provisions of this Article XV are intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable directly by, the holders of Senior Debt.

SECTION 15.10 HOLDERS AUTHORIZE TRUSTEE TO EFFECTUATE THE SUBORDINATION OF THE NOTES.

Each Holder, by such Holder’s acceptance of any Notes, authorizes and expressly directs the Trustee on such Holder’s behalf to take such action as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the subordination provided in this Article XV, and appoints the Trustee such Holder’s attorney-in-fact for such purposes, including, in the event of any dissolution, winding up, liquidation or reorganization of the Issuer (whether in bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, reorganization or similar proceedings or upon an assignment for the benefit of creditors or otherwise) tending towards liquidation of the property and assets of the Issuer, the filing of a claim for the unpaid balance of its Notes, if any, in the form required in those proceedings. If the Trustee does not file a proper claim or proof of indebtedness in the form required in such proceeding at least 30 days before the expiration of the time to file such claim or claims, each holder of Senior Debt is hereby authorized to file an appropriate claim for and on behalf of the Holders.

SECTION 15.11 NOT TO PREVENT EVENTS OF DEFAULT.

The failure to make a payment on account of principal of or interest on the Notes by reason of any provision of this Article XV will not be construed as preventing the occurrence of an Event of Default.

SECTION 15.12 TRUSTEE’S COMPENSATION NOT PREJUDICED.

Nothing in this Article XV will apply to amounts due to the Trustee pursuant to other sections of this Indenture.

SECTION 15.13 NO WAIVER OF SUBORDINATION PROVISIONS.

Without in any way limiting the generality of Section 15.9, the holders of Senior Debt may, at any time and from time to time, without the consent of or notice to the Trustee or the Holders, without incurring responsibility to the Holders and without impairing or releasing the subordination provided in this Article XV or the obligations hereunder of the Holders to the holders of Senior Debt, do any one or more of the following: (a) change the manner, place or terms of payment or extend the time of payment of, or renew or alter, Senior Debt or any instrument evidencing the same or any agreement under which Senior Debt is outstanding or secured; (b) sell, exchange, release or otherwise deal with any property pledged, mortgaged or otherwise securing Senior Debt; (c) release any Person liable in any manner for the collection of Senior Debt; and (d) exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against the Issuer and any other Person.

SECTION 15.14 PAYMENTS MAY BE PAID PRIOR TO DISSOLUTION.

Nothing contained in this Article XV or elsewhere in this Indenture shall prevent (i) the Issuer, except under the conditions described in Section 15.2 or Section 15.3, from making

payments of principal of and interest on the Notes, or from depositing with the Trustee any money for such payments, or (ii) the application by the Trustee of any money deposited with it for the purpose of making such payments of principal of and interest on the Notes to the Holders entitled thereto unless, at least two Business Days prior to the date upon which such payment becomes due and payable, the Trustee shall have received the written notice provided for in Section 15.2(b) (or there shall have been an acceleration of the Notes prior to such application) or in Section 15.6. The Issuer shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any dissolution, winding up, liquidation or reorganization of the Issuer.

SECTION 16.13 LEGAL HOLIDAYS.

In any case where any Interest Payment Date, Optional Redemption Date, Special Repurchase Date, Designated Event Repurchase Date or stated maturity of any Note shall not be a Business Day at any Place of Payment, then (notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture or of the Notes) payment of interest [(including Additional Interest, if any)] or principal or premium, if any, need not be made at such Place of Payment on such day, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day at such Place of Payment with the same force and effect as if made on the Interest Payment Date, Optional Redemption Date, Special Repurchase Date, Designated Event Repurchase Date or at the stated maturity, provided, that in the case that payment is made on such succeeding Business Day, no interest shall accrue on the amount so payable for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date, Optional Redemption Date, Special Repurchase Date, Designated Event Repurchase Date or stated maturity, as the case may be.

SECTION 16.14 RECOURSE AGAINST OTHERS.

		The Holder of this Note is entitled to the benefits of a Note Guarantee whereby Lions Gate Entertainment Corp., a British Columbia corporation and parent of the Issuer (the “COMPANY”), has fully and unconditionally guaranteed, as primary obligor and not merely as surety, to each Holder and the Trustee, the payment of principal and interest on this Note on an unsecured senior subordinated basis.

2.		MATURITY. The Notes will mature on March 15, 2025 (“MATURITY”).

3.		METHOD OF PAYMENT. The Issuer will pay interest on the Notes (except defaulted interest) to the persons who are registered Holders at the close of business on the record date set forth on the face of this Note next preceding the applicable interest payment date. Holders must surrender Notes to the Issuer or its designated agent to collect the principal, Optional Redemption Price, Special Repurchase Price or Designated Event Repurchase Price of the Notes. The Issuer will pay all amounts due with respect to the Notes in money of the United States that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts. If this Note is in global form, the Issuer will pay interest on the Notes by wire transfer of immediately available funds to The Depository Trust Company. With respect to Notes held other than in global form, the Issuer will make payments: (i) by U.S. Dollar check drawn on a bank in The City of New York mailed to the address of the Holder; or (ii) upon application to the Registrar not later than the relevant Record Date by a Holder of an aggregate principal amount in excess of $5,000,000, by wire transfer in immediately available funds.

A-3

		reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 (15 U.S. Code Sections 77aaa-77bbbb) (the “ACT”) as in effect on the date of the Indenture. The Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and the Act for a statement of such terms. The Notes are general unsecured senior subordinated obligations of the Issuer. Terms used herein which are defined in the Indenture have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture. [The Notes being issued on the date hereof are being issued in exchange for, and as a refinancing of, the Issuer’s 3.625% Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes due 2025 (CUSIP No. 535919 AE 4) pursuant to certain Refinancing Exchange Agreements by and between the Issuer and initial Holder of the Notes, dated as of April 20, 2009.]²

6.		OPTIONAL REDEMPTION. The Notes shall be redeemable, in whole or from time to time in part, at the option of the Issuer and subject to the terms and conditions of the Indenture, on any Trading Day on or after March 15, 2015 (an “OPTIONAL REDEMPTION DATE”), at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount to be redeemed, to, but excluding, the Optional Redemption Date (the “OPTIONAL REDEMPTION PRICE”). Notice of any such redemption by the Issuer will be given at least 30, but not more than 60, days before any Optional Redemption Date to each Holder of Notes to be redeemed at such Holder’s registered address. The Issuer shall pay or deposit funds with the Paying Agent in the amount of the Optional Redemption Price on or before the Trading Day immediately preceding the Optional Redemption Date. If notice of such a redemption is provided and funds are paid or deposited as required, interest on and after the Optional Redemption Date will cease to accrue on the Notes or portions of Notes called for such a redemption. In the event that any Optional Redemption Date is not a Business Day, the Issuer will pay the Optional Redemption Price on the next Business Day without any additional interest or other payment due. If less than all the Notes are to be redeemed at the option of the Issuer, the Trustee shall select, by lot, on a pro rata basis or otherwise in accordance with the applicable procedures of the DTC, the Notes and portions of Notes to be redeemed. The Trustee may select for redemption Notes and portions of Notes of this series in amounts of whole multiples of $1,000 principal amount. Notes in denominations larger than $1,000 principal amount may be redeemed in part but only in whole multiples of $1,000 principal amount.

7.		REPURCHASE AT OPTION OF HOLDER ON SPECIFIED DATES. On March 15, 2015, March 15, 2018 and March 15, 2023 (each a “SPECIAL REPURCHASE DATE”), each Holder shall have the right, at such Holder’s option and subject to the terms and conditions of the Indenture, to require the Issuer to purchase any or all of such Holder’s Notes or any portion of the principal amount thereof that is equal to $1,000 or whole multiples thereof for a repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest and additional interest, if any, to, but excluding, the Special Repurchase Date (the “SPECIAL REPURCHASE PRICE”), provided that such interest will be paid to the person who was the registered Holder at the close of business on the record date for the corresponding interest payment date. Notice of each Special Repurchase Date containing the information required to be set forth in


²		If applicable.

A-4

		such notice by the Indenture shall be given by the Issuer to each Holder at its registered address not less than 20 Business Days prior to each Special Repurchase Date. Each Holder electing to require the Issuer to repurchase the Holder’s Notes shall submit such information and documents as required by the Indenture to the Issuer or its designated agent on or before the close of business on the Special Repurchase Date and shall deliver (including by book-entry transfer) the Notes to be repurchased to the Issuer or its designated agent. In the event that a Holder submits Notes to be repurchased, the Issuer shall pay or deposit funds with the Paying Agent in the amount of the Special Repurchase Price on the Trading Day immediately following the Special Repurchase Date. If a Holder submits the required documentation for Notes to be repurchased and funds are paid or deposited as required, interest on and after the Special Repurchase Date will cease to accrue on the Notes or portions of Notes submitted for repurchase.

8.		REPURCHASE AT OPTION OF HOLDER UPON A DESIGNATED EVENT. If a Designated Event (as set forth in the Indenture) shall occur at any time prior to Maturity, each Holder shall have the right, at such Holder’s option and subject to the terms and conditions of the Indenture, to require the Issuer to purchase any or all of such Holder’s Notes for cash or any portion of the principal amount thereof that is equal to $1,000 or whole multiples thereof for a repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes purchased plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the Designated Event Repurchase Date (the “DESIGNATED EVENT REPURCHASE PRICE”), provided that such interest will be paid to the person who was the registered Holder at the close of business on the record date for the corresponding interest payment date. Notice of the occurrence and type of Designated Event and containing the information required to be set forth in such notice by the Indenture (the “DESIGNATED EVENT REPURCHASE NOTICE”), including, without limitation, the date selected by the Issuer that is not less than 20 nor more than 30 Business Days after the date of the Designated Event Repurchase Notice (the “DESIGNATED EVENT REPURCHASE DATE”), shall be given by the Issuer to each Holder at such Holder’s registered address, as well as to the Trustee, not more than 10 days after the Issuer has become aware of such an occurrence. Each Holder electing to require the Issuer to repurchase the Holder’s Notes shall submit such information and documents as are required by the Indenture, to the Issuer or its designated agent on or before the close of business on the Designated Event Repurchase Date and shall deliver (including by book-entry transfer) the Notes to be repurchased to the Issuer or its designated agent. The Issuer shall pay the Designated Event Repurchase Price in cash. In the event that a Holder submits Notes to be repurchased, the Issuer shall pay or deposit funds with the Paying Agent in the amount of the Designated Event Repurchase Price on the Trading Day immediately following the Designated Event Repurchase Date. If a Holder submits the required documentation for Notes to be repurchased and funds are paid or deposited as required, interest on and after the Designated Event Repurchase Date will cease to accrue on the Notes or portions of Notes submitted for repurchase.

9.		CONVERSION. Subject to and upon compliance with the provisions of the Indenture, a Holder is entitled until the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Maturity Date, at its option, to convert any Notes that are whole multiples of $1,000 principal amount into Common Shares (or, at the option of the Issuer, into cash or a

A-5

combination of cash and Common Shares) at the Conversion Rate in effect at the time of conversion, subject to the adjustments described below.

		The initial conversion rate is 121.2121 Common Shares per $1,000 principal amount of Notes (subject to adjustment in the event of certain circumstances as specified in the Indenture, the “CONVERSION RATE”), or an effective initial conversion price of approximately $8.25 per share (subject to adjustment in the event of certain circumstances as specified in the Indenture, the “CONVERSION PRICE”).

		If the conversion is in connection with a Change in Control, there shall, under certain circumstances, be added to the Common Shares otherwise issuable upon conversion an additional number of Common Shares as a Make Whole Premium as set forth in the Indenture. In the event that of a Change of Control occurs that would otherwise trigger the obligation of the Issuer to pay the Make Whole Premium and the Acquiror is a Public Entity or is a direct or indirect subsidiary of a Public Entity, the Issuer may elect instead to provide that the Notes become convertible into common shares of the Public Entity, subject to certain conditions as specified in the Indenture.

		Upon conversion, at the option of the Issuer, the Issuer may, in lieu of delivery of the Common Shares issuable upon conversion, deliver cash or a combination of cash and Common Shares in satisfaction of its obligations upon such conversion.

		The Issuer will deliver cash in lieu of any fractional share. Upon conversion, no payment or adjustment for any unpaid and accrued interest and additional interest, if any, on the Notes will be made, except in certain circumstances as specified in the Indenture. If a Holder surrenders a Note for conversion after the record date for the payment of interest but prior to the corresponding interest payment date, such Note, when surrendered for conversion, must be accompanied by payment of an amount equal to the interest and additional interest, if any, thereon which has accrued and will accrue and be paid on the Notes being converted on the corresponding interest payment date, unless (1) the Notes have been called for redemption as described in the Indenture, (2) the Notes have been converted in connection with a Designated Event as described in the Indenture or (3) overdue interest, if any, exists at the time of conversion with respect to such Note.

		To convert a Note, a Holder must (1) with respect to any Note in certificated form, (A) complete and sign the Conversion Notice, with appropriate signature guarantee, on the back of the Note and (B) surrender the Note to the Conversion Agent, (2) with respect to any interest in a Global Note, (A) complete, or cause to be completed, the appropriate instruction form for conversion pursuant to the Depositary’s book-entry conversion program and (B) deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Conversion Agent by book-entry delivery the interest in such Global Note being converted, (3) furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents if required by the Registrar or Conversion Agent, (4) pay funds equal to the interest payable on the next interest payment date to which such Holder is not entitled, if any, (as provided in the last sentence of the above paragraph) and (5) pay any transfer or similar tax if required. A Holder may convert a portion of a Note if the portion is $1,000 principal amount or a positive integral multiple of $1,000 principal amount.

A-6

		[Any shares issued upon conversion of a Note shall bear the Restrictive Securities Legend until after the second anniversary of the later of the issue date for the Notes (unless the Issuer determines otherwise in accordance with applicable law) or the last date on which the Issuer, the Company or any of their respective affiliates was the owner of such shares or the Note (or any predecessor notes) from which such shares were converted (or such shorter period of time) (the “Resale Restriction Termination Date”).]

10.		SUBORDINATION. The Notes are subordinated in right of payment, in the manner and to the extent set forth in the Indenture, to the prior payment in full of all Senior Debt. Each Holder by accepting a Note agrees to such subordination and authorizes the Trustee to give it effect.

11.		DENOMINATIONS, TRANSFER, EXCHANGE. The Notes are in registered form without coupons in denominations of $1,000 principal amount and positive integral multiples of $1,000 principal amount. The transfer of Notes may be registered and Notes may be exchanged as provided in the Indenture. The Registrar may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents. No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Issuer may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith. The Registrar need not exchange or register the transfer of any Note selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of Notes to be redeemed in part. Also, it need not exchange or register the transfer of any Notes for a period of 15 days before the mailing of a notice of redemption of the Notes selected to be redeemed and in certain other circumstances provided in the Indenture.

12.		PERSONS DEEMED OWNERS. The registered Holder of a Note may be treated as the owner of such Note for all purposes.

13.		MERGER OR CONSOLIDATION. The Issuer and the Company shall not consolidate with or merge with or into, or convey, transfer or lease all or substantially all of their assets, whether in a single transaction or series of related transactions to any person unless (i) the Issuer or Company is the resulting Successor Company or the Successor Company is a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the United States, any State thereof or the District of Columbia or under the laws of Canada or any province thereof and such Successor Company assumes by supplemental indenture, executed and delivered to the Trustee, in form satisfactory to the Trustee, all of the Issuer’s and the Company’s obligations under the Indenture and the Notes, including the conversion rights; (ii) immediately after giving effect to the transaction, no Default or Event of Default shall exist; and (iii) the Issuer and the Company deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that such consolidation, merger or transfer and such supplemental indenture, if any, comply with the Indenture and the Notes.

14.		AMENDMENTS, SUPPLEMENTS AND WAIVERS. Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture or the Notes may be modified or amended with the consent or vote of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then

A-7

outstanding, and any existing Default or Event of Default may be waived with the consent or vote of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding. Without notice to or the consent of any Holder, the Indenture or the Notes may be modified or amended to cure any ambiguity or inconsistency, to comply with Article VII of the Indenture, to comply with Section 14.11 of the Indenture, to reduce the conversion price, to make any changes or modifications to the Indenture necessary in connection with the registration of the Notes under the Securities Act and the qualification of the Indenture under the TIA, to secure the obligations of the Issuer in respect of the Notes, to add to covenants of the Issuer or the Company described in the Indenture for the benefit of Holders or to surrender any right or power conferred upon the Issuer.

15.		DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES. An Event of Default includes the occurrence of any of the following: default in payment of principal and premium, if any, at maturity, upon redemption or exercise of a repurchase right or otherwise; default for 30 days in payment of interest or other amounts due; failure by the Issuer or the Company for 60 days after notice to it to comply with any of its other agreements in the Indenture or the Notes; certain payment defaults or the acceleration of other indebtedness of the Issuer or its subsidiaries; certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency involving the Issuer, the Company or any of the Company’s subsidiaries; and failure by the Issuer to provide timely notice of the occurrence of a Designated Event. If any Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding may declare all the Notes to be due and payable immediately, except as provided in the Indenture. If an Event of Default specified in Sections 5.1(e) or (f) of the Indenture with respect to the Issuer or the Company occurs, the principal of and accrued interest on all the Notes shall become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder. Holders may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes except as provided in the Indenture. The Trustee may require indemnity satisfactory to it before it enforces the Indenture or the Notes. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Holders notice of any continuing Default or Event of Default (except a Default or Event of Default in payment) if it determines that withholding notice is in the interests of the Holders. The Issuer and the Company must furnish an annual compliance certificate to the Trustee.

16.		[REGISTRATION RIGHTS. The Holders are entitled to registration rights as set forth in a Registration Rights Agreement (as defined in the Indenture). The Holders shall be entitled to receive liquidated damages in certain circumstances, all as set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement.]

17.		TRUSTEE DEALINGS WITH THE ISSUER. The Trustee under the Indenture, or any banking institution serving as successor Trustee thereunder, in its individual or any other capacity, may make loans to, accept deposits from, and perform services for the Issuer or its Affiliates, and may otherwise deal with the Issuer or its Affiliates, as if it were not Trustee.

18.		NO RECOURSE AGAINST OTHERS. No past, present or future director, officer, employee or shareholder, as such, of the Company shall have any liability for any obligations of the Issuer under the Notes or the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations or their creation. Each Holder by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issue of the Notes.

19.		AUTHENTICATION. This Notes shall not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of the Trustee or an authenticating agent.

20.		ABBREVIATIONS.

		Re:		LIONS GATE ENTERTAINMENT INC. (the “ISSUER”) 3.625% Convertible
				Senior Subordinated Notes due 2025 (the “NOTES”)

Ladies and Gentlemen:

Reference is made to the Notes issued pursuant to a certain indenture dated as of [ ], 2009 by and among the Issuer, the Company and [ ], as trustee (the “Trustee”). The Company issued $66,581,000 principal amount of Notes on [ ], 2009 in transactions exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “SECURITIES Act”). The Issuer and the Company have filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) a registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-___) (the “REGISTRATION STATEMENT”) relating to the registration under the Securities Act of $ principal amount of the Notes and the Common Shares of the Company (the “SHARES”) issuable upon conversion of the Notes being registered. The Registration Statement was declared effective by order of the SEC dated [ ].

We have acted as counsel for the Issuer and the Company in connection with the issuance of the Notes and the preparation and filing of the Registration Statement and are familiar with the Securities, the Indenture, the Registration Statement, the above-mentioned SEC order and such other documents as are necessary to render this opinion.

Based on the foregoing, it is our opinion that (1) the Registration Statement has become effective under the Securities Act and, to our knowledge, no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has been issued, (2) assuming that the Notes covered by the Registration Statement and the Common Shares issuable upon conversion of such Notes are sold by a relevant Holder specified in the Registration Statement in a manner specified in the Registration Statement, such sale of the Notes and Common Shares issuable upon conversion of the Notes will have been duly registered under the Securities Act and (3) the Indenture has been duly qualified under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended.


		Yours truly,
