THIS LEGEND WILL BE REMOVED UPON THE REQUEST OF THE HOLDER AFTER THE RESALE RESTRICTION TERMINATION DATE.

Any stock certificate (or security issued in exchange or substitution therefor) as to which such restrictions on transfer shall have expired in accordance with their terms or that has been transferred pursuant to a registration statement that has been declared effective under the Securities Act may, upon surrender of such stock certificate to the Registrar for exchange in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.1 and Section 2.14, be exchanged for a new stock certificate, of like tenor and aggregate number of shares, which shall not bear the Restricted Stock Legend required by this Section 2.1(e).

(f) Each Global Note, whether or not a Transfer Restricted Note, shall bear the following legend:

“THIS SECURITY IS A GLOBAL SECURITY WITHIN THE MEANING OF THE INDENTURE HEREINAFTER REFERRED TO AND IS REGISTERED IN THE NAME OF THE DEPOSITORY TRUST COMPANY, A NEW YORK CORPORATION (“DEPOSITARY”), OR A NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITARY, WHICH MAY BE TREATED BY THE

OR IN SUCH OTHER NAME AS IS REQUESTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF THE DEPOSITARY (AND ANY PAYMENT IS MADE TO CEDE & CO.

“TRANSFERS OF THIS GLOBAL SECURITY SHALL BE LIMITED TO TRANSFERS IN WHOLE, BUT NOT IN PART, BY THE DEPOSITARY TO A NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITARY OR BY A NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITARY TO THE DEPOSITARY OR ANOTHER NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITARY OR BY THE DEPOSITARY OR ANY SUCH NOMINEE TO A SUCCESSOR DEPOSITARY OR A NOMINEE OF SUCH SUCCESSOR DEPOSITARY, AND TRANSFERS OF PORTIONS OF THIS GLOBAL SECURITY SHALL BE LIMITED TO TRANSFERS MADE IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE RESTRICTIONS SET FORTH IN THE INDENTURE REFERRED TO ON THE REVERSE HEREOF.”

(i) Each Global Note initially shall (x) be registered in the name of the Depositary for such Global Note or the nominee of such Depositary, (y) be delivered to the Notes Custodian and (z) bear the legend as set forth in Section 2.1(d).

(ii) Except as provided herein, members of, or participants in, the Depositary (“Agent Members”) shall have no rights under this Indenture with respect to any Global Note held on their behalf by the Depositary or by the Notes Custodian or under such Global Note, and the Depositary may be treated by the Company, the Trustee, the Notes Custodian and any agent of the Company or the Trustee as the absolute owner of such Global Note for all purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Company, the Trustee or any agent of the Company or the Trustee from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by the

Depositary or impair, as between the Depositary and its Agent Members, the operation of customary practices of the Depositary governing the exercise of the rights of a Beneficial Owner of an interest in any Global Note.

(v) In connection with the transfer of an entire Global Note to Beneficial Owners pursuant to Section 2.1(h), such Global Note shall be deemed to be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation, and the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall 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 Definitive Notes of authorized denominations.

(vi) Any Holder of a Global Note shall, by acceptance of such Global Note, agree that transfers of beneficial interests in such Global Note may be effected only through a book-entry system maintained by (a) the Holder of such Global Note (or its agent) or (b) any Holder of a beneficial interest in such Global Note, and that ownership of a beneficial interest in such Global Note shall be required to be reflected in a book entry.

(vii) Neither the Trustee nor any Paying Agent, Registrar, or Conversion Agent shall have the responsibility for any actions taken or not taken by the Depositary.

(viii) Neither the Trustee nor the Registrar or Conversion Agent shall have any duty to monitor the Company’s compliance with or have any responsibility with respect to the Company’s compliance with any federal or state securities laws in connection with registrations of transfers and exchanges of the Notes. The Trustee shall have no obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on transfer imposed under this Indenture or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Notes (including any transfers between or among the Depository’s participants or beneficial owners of interests in any Global Note) other than to require delivery of such certificates and other documentation, as is expressly required by, and to do so if and when expressly required by, the terms of this Indenture or the Notes and to examine the same to determine substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements hereof.

(h) Except as provided below, owners of beneficial interests in Global Notes will not be entitled to receive Definitive Notes. If required to do so pursuant to any applicable law or regulation, Beneficial Owners may obtain Definitive Notes in exchange for their beneficial interests in a Global Note upon written request in accordance with the Depositary’s and the Registrar’s procedures. In addition, Definitive Notes shall be transferred to all Beneficial Owners in exchange for their beneficial interests in a Global Note if (i) the Depositary notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as depositary for such Global Note or the Depositary ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act, at a time when the Depositary is required to be so registered in order to act as Depositary, and in each case a successor depositary is not appointed by the Company within 90 days of such notice or (ii) the Company, in its sole discretion, executes and delivers to the Trustee and Registrar an Officers’ Certificate stating that such Global Note shall be so exchangeable or (iii) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Registrar has received a request from the Depositary.

In the event that the Certificated Notes are not issued to each such beneficial owner promptly after the Registrar has received a request from the Holder of a Global Note to issue such Certificated Notes, the Company expressly acknowledges, with respect to the right of any Holder to pursue a remedy pursuant to Section 10.4 or 10.6 hereof, the right of any Beneficial Owner of Notes to pursue such remedy with respect to the portion of the Global Note that represents such Beneficial Owner’s Notes as if such Certificated Notes had been issued.

(j) In connection with the exchange of a portion of a Definitive Note for a beneficial interest in a Global Note, the Trustee shall cancel such Definitive Note, and the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, to the transferring Holder a new Definitive Note representing the principal amount not so transferred.

SECTION 2.2 Execution and Authentication. An Officer shall sign the Notes for the Company by manual or facsimile signature. If an Officer whose signature is on a Note no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates the Note, the Note shall be valid nevertheless.

A Note shall not be valid until an authorized signatory of the Trustee manually authenticates the Note. The signature of the Trustee on a Note shall be conclusive evidence that such Note has been duly and validly authenticated and issued under this Indenture.

At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the Trustee shall, upon the written direction or order of the Company, together with an Opinion of Counsel, authenticate and make available for delivery Notes for original issue in an aggregate principal amount of up to $30,000,000 upon a written order of the Company signed by two Officers of the Company (the “Company Order”). Such Company Order shall specify the amount of the Notes to be authenticated, the registered holders thereof and delivery instructions for such Notes.

The Trustee may appoint an agent (the “Authenticating Agent”) reasonably acceptable to the Company to authenticate the Notes. Unless limited by the terms of such appointment, any such 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 agent.

In case the Company pursuant to Article IV shall be consolidated or merged with or into any other Person or shall convey, transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of its properties and assets substantially as an entirety to any Person, and the successor Person resulting from such consolidation, or surviving such merger, or into which the Company shall have been merged, or the Person which shall have received a conveyance, transfer, lease or other disposition as aforesaid, shall have executed an indenture supplemental hereto with the Trustee pursuant to Article IV, any of the Notes authenticated or delivered prior to such consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer, lease or other disposition may, from time to time, at the request of the successor Person, be exchanged for other Notes executed in the name of the successor Person with such changes in phraseology and form as may be appropriate, but otherwise in substance of like tenor as the Notes surrendered for such exchange and of like principal amount; and the Trustee, upon Company Order of the successor Person, shall authenticate and deliver Notes as specified in such order for the purpose of such exchange. If Notes shall at any time be authenticated and delivered in any new name of a successor Person pursuant to this Section 2.2 in exchange or substitution for or upon registration of transfer of, any Notes, such successor Person, at the option of the Holders but without expense to them, shall provide for the exchange of all Notes at the time outstanding for Notes authenticated and delivered in such new name.

SECTION 2.3 Registrar, Conversion Agent and Paying Agent. The Trustee shall initially serve as the Registrar, Conversion Agent and Paying Agent for the Notes. The Registrar, the Conversion Agent and the Paying Agent shall each maintain an office or agency in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York. The Registrar shall keep a register of the Notes and of their transfer and exchange (the “Note Register”). The Company may have one or more co-registrars and one or more additional conversion agents and paying agents. The term Paying Agent includes any additional paying agents, the term Conversion Agent includes any additional conversion agents and the term Registrar includes any co-registrar. The Company may appoint and change any Paying Agent, Conversion Agent or Registrar without prior notice to any Holder.

The Company shall enter into an appropriate agency agreement with any Registrar, Conversion Agent or Paying Agent not a party to this Indenture, which shall incorporate the terms of the TIA. The agreement shall implement the provisions of this Indenture that relate to such agent. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the name and address of each such agent. If the Company fails to maintain a Registrar, Conversion Agent or Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as such and shall be entitled to appropriate compensation therefor pursuant to Section 11.7. The Company or any of its domestically incorporated Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent, Conversion Agent or Registrar.

The Company may remove any Registrar, Conversion Agent or Paying Agent upon written notice to such Registrar, Conversion Agent or Paying Agent and to the Trustee; provided, however, that no such removal shall become effective until (i) acceptance of any appointment by a successor as evidenced by an appropriate agreement entered into by the

Company and such successor Registrar, Conversion Agent or Paying Agent, as the case may be, and delivered to the Trustee or (ii) notification to the Trustee that the Trustee shall serve as Registrar, Conversion Agent or Paying Agent until the appointment of a successor in accordance with clause (i) above. The Registrar, Conversion Agent or Paying Agent may resign at any time upon written notice to the Company and the Trustee.

SECTION 2.4 Paying Agent To Hold Money and Securities in Trust. Except as otherwise provided herein, on or prior to 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on each due date of payment in respect of any Note, the Company shall deposit with the Paying Agent a sum of money (in immediately available funds) sufficient to make such payments when due. The Company shall require each Paying Agent (other than the Trustee) to agree in writing that such Paying Agent shall hold in trust for the benefit of Holders or the Trustee all money held by such Paying Agent for the payment of principal of, interest on, and other payments in respect of the Notes, and shall notify the Trustee in writing of any default by the Company in making any such payment. If the Company or a Subsidiary acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate the money held by it as Paying Agent and hold it as a separate trust fund for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes. The Company at any time may require a Paying Agent (other than the Trustee) to pay all money held by it to the Trustee and to account for any funds disbursed by such Paying Agent. Upon complying with this Section 2.4, the Paying Agent (if other than the Company or a Subsidiary) shall have no further liability for the money delivered to the Trustee. Upon any bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding with respect to the Company, the Trustee shall serve as Paying Agent for the Notes.

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 and shall otherwise comply with TIA § 312(a). If the Trustee is not the Registrar or to the extent otherwise required under the TIA, the Company, on its own behalf, shall furnish to the Trustee, in writing at least seven Business Days before each Interest Payment Date and at such other times as the Trustee may reasonably request in writing within 15 days, a list in such form and as of such date as the Trustee may reasonably require of the names and addresses of Holders and the Company shall otherwise comply with TIA § 312(a).

SECTION 2.6 Transfer and Exchange.

(a) With respect to any proposed transfer of a Note prior to the date (the “Resale Restriction Termination Date”) that this security is freely transferable under Rule 144 of the Securities Act, a transfer of a Note or a beneficial interest therein to a QIB shall be made upon receipt by the Trustee or its agent of a certificate substantially in the form of the Form of Certificate to be Delivered Upon Exchange or Registration of Transfer of Securities set forth on the reverse of the Note that the transferee is purchasing the Note for its own account or an account with respect to which it exercises sole investment discretion and that it and any such account is a “qualified institutional buyer” within the meaning of Rule 144A, and is aware that the sale to it is being made in reliance on Rule 144A and acknowledges that it has received such information regarding the Company as it has requested pursuant to Rule 144A or has determined not to request such information and that it is aware that the transferor is relying upon its foregoing representations in order to claim the exemption from registration provided by Rule 144A.

(b) Upon the transfer, exchange or replacement of Notes not bearing a Restricted Note Legend, the Registrar shall deliver Notes that do not bear a Restricted Note Legend. Upon the transfer, exchange or replacement of Notes bearing a Restricted Note Legend, the Registrar shall deliver only Notes that bear such Restricted Note Legend unless (i) a Note is being transferred pursuant to an effective registration statement or (ii) there is delivered to the Registrar an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that neither such legend nor the related restrictions on transfer are required in order to maintain compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act.

(c) The Registrar shall retain copies of all letters, notices and other written communications received pursuant to Section 2.1 or this Section 2.6 until the Notes have matured and been paid in full. The Company shall have the right to inspect and make copies of all such letters, notices or other written communications at any reasonable time upon the giving of reasonable written notice to the Registrar.

(d) The following obligations with respect to transfers and exchanges of Notes shall apply:

(i) To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Company shall, subject to the other terms and conditions of this Article II, execute and the Trustee shall upon receipt of a Company Order, authenticate Definitive Notes and Global Notes at the Registrar’s request.

(ii) No service charge shall be made to a Holder for any registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax, assessments or similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other than any such transfer taxes, assessments or similar governmental charges payable upon exchange or transfer pursuant to Section 6.4 or 9.5).

(iii) The Registrar shall not be required to register the transfer of or exchange of any Note (A) for a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before any selection of Notes for redemption or repurchase and ending at the close of business on the day notice of such redemption or repurchase is deemed to have been given to all Holders of Notes to be so redeemed or repurchased or (B) selected for redemption or repurchase in whole or in part, except for the transfer of the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part.

(iv) Prior to the due presentation for registration or transfer of any Note, the Company, the Trustee, Paying Agent, the Conversion Agent or the Registrar may deem and treat the Person in whose name a Note is registered as the absolute owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and interest on such Note and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Note is overdue, and none of the Company, the Trustee, the Paying Agent, the Conversion Agent or the Registrar shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

(v) All Notes issued upon any transfer or exchange pursuant to the terms of this Indenture shall evidence the same debt and shall be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as the Notes surrendered upon such transfer or exchange.

SECTION 2.7 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Notes. If a mutilated Note is surrendered to the Registrar or if the Holder of a Note claims that the Note has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken, subject to compliance with the provisions of the next sentence of this Section 2.7, the Company shall issue and the Trustee, upon Company Order, shall authenticate a replacement Note if the requirements of Section 8-405 of the Uniform Commercial Code are met as confirmed by an Opinion of Counsel, such that the Holder (a) notifies the Company and the Trustee within a reasonable time after such Holder has notice of such loss, destruction or wrongful taking and the Registrar has not registered a transfer prior to receiving such notification, (b) makes such request to the Company prior to the Company having notice that the Note has been acquired by a protected purchaser as defined in Section 8-303 of the Uniform Commercial Code (a “protected purchaser”) and (c) satisfies any other reasonable requirements of the Company and the Trustee. Such Holder shall furnish an indemnity bond sufficient in the judgment of the Company and the Trustee to protect the Company, the Trustee, the Paying Agent, the Conversion Agent and the Registrar from any loss which any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced, then, in the absence of notice to the Company, or the Trustee, Paying Agent, Conversion Agent or Registrar, that such Note has been acquired by a protected purchaser, the Company shall execute and upon Company Order the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for any such mutilated Note or in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Note, a new Note of like tenor and principal amount, bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding.

In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note has become or is about to become due and payable, the Company in its discretion, but subject to any conversion rights, may, instead of issuing a new Note, pay such Note upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth in the preceding paragraph.

Upon the issuance of any new Note under this Section, the Company may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including attorneys’ fees and expenses and the fees and expenses of the Trustee) in connection therewith.

Every new Note issued pursuant to this Section in lieu of any mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Company and any other obligor upon the Notes, whether or not the mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Notes duly issued hereunder.

The provisions of this Section are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes.

SECTION 2.8 Outstanding Notes. Notes outstanding at any time (“Outstanding Notes”) are all Notes authenticated by the Trustee except for:

(i) Notes theretofore canceled by the Trustee or delivered to the Trustee for cancellation:

(ii) Notes for the payment or redemption of which money in the necessary amount has been theretofore deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent (other than the Company) in trust or set aside and segregated in trust by the Company (if the Company shall act as its own Paying Agent) for the Holders of such Notes, provided that if such Notes are to be redeemed, notice of such redemption has been duly given pursuant to this Indenture or provision therefor reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee has been made;

(iii) Notes which have been paid pursuant to Section 2.7 or in exchange for or in lieu of which other Notes have been authenticated and delivered pursuant to this Indenture, other than any such Notes in respect of which there shall have been presented to the Trustee proof satisfactory to it that such Notes are held by a bona fide purchaser in whose hands such Notes are valid obligations of the Company; and

(iv) Notes converted into Common Stock pursuant to Article IX;

provided, however that in determining whether the Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Notes are present at a meeting of Holders of Notes for quorum purposes or have given, made or taken any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver or other action hereunder, Notes owned by the Company or any Affiliate of the Company shall be disregarded and deemed not to be Outstanding Notes, except that, in determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying upon any such determination as to the presence of a quorum or upon any such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver or other action, only Notes which a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has been notified in writing to be so owned shall be so disregarded. Notes so owned which have been pledged in good faith may be regarded as Outstanding Notes if the pledgee is not the Company or any Affiliate of the Company, and the Trustee shall be protected in relying upon an Officers’ Certificate to such effect.

SECTION 2.9 Temporary Notes. In the event that Definitive Notes are to be issued under the terms of this Indenture, until such Definitive Notes are ready for delivery, the Company may prepare and, upon receipt of a Company Order, the Trustee shall authenticate temporary Notes. Temporary Notes shall be substantially in the form of Definitive Notes but may have variations that the Company considers appropriate for temporary Notes. Without unreasonable delay, the Company shall prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate Definitive Notes. After the preparation of Definitive Notes, the temporary Notes shall be exchangeable for Definitive Notes upon surrender of the temporary Notes at any office or agency maintained by the Company for that purpose and such exchange shall be without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Notes, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery in exchange therefor, one or more Definitive Notes representing an equal principal amount of Notes. Until so exchanged, the Holder of temporary Notes shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as a Holder of Definitive Notes.

SECTION 2.10 Cancellation. The Company at any time may deliver Notes to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar and the Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Notes surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee and no

one else shall cancel and return to the Company all Notes surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment, redemption, purchase, conversion or cancellation. All Notes so delivered to the Trustee shall be cancelled promptly by the Trustee. The Company may not issue new Notes to replace Notes it has paid or delivered to the Trustee for cancellation.

At such time as all beneficial interests in a Global Note have either been exchanged for Definitive Notes, transferred, paid, redeemed, repurchased, converted or canceled, such Global Note shall be returned by the Depositary or the Notes Custodian to the Trustee for cancellation or retained and canceled by the Trustee. At any time prior to such cancellation, if any beneficial interest in a Global Note is exchanged for Definitive Notes, transferred in exchange for an interest in another Global Note, paid, redeemed, repurchased, converted or canceled, the principal amount of Notes represented by such Global Note shall be reduced and an adjustment shall be made on the Global Note and on the books and records of the Trustee (if it is then the Notes Custodian for such Global Note) with respect to such Global Note, by the Trustee or the Notes Custodian, to reflect such reduction.

SECTION 2.11 Payment of Interest; Defaulted Interest. Interest on any Note which is payable, and is punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Note (or one or more predecessor Notes) is registered at the close of business on the Record Date for such interest at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose pursuant to Section 2.3.

Any interest on any Note which is payable, but is not paid when the same becomes due and payable and such nonpayment continues for a period of 30 days shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on the Record Date, and such defaulted interest and (to the extent lawful) interest on such defaulted interest at the rate borne by the Notes (such defaulted interest and interest thereon herein collectively called “Defaulted Interest”) shall be paid by the Company, at its election in each case, as provided in clause (a) or (b) below:

(a) The Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest to the Persons in whose names the Notes (or their respective predecessor Notes) are registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date (as defined below) for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed in the following manner. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each Note and the date (not less than 30 days after such notice) of the proposed payment (the “Special Interest Payment Date”), and the Company shall make arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee to deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest on or prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such Defaulted Interest as in this clause provided. Thereupon the Trustee shall fix a record date (the “Special Record Date”) for the payment of such Defaulted Interest which shall be not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to the Special Interest Payment Date and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company of such Special Record Date, and in the name and at the expense of the Company, shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date and Special Interest Payment Date

therefor to be given in the manner provided for in Section 14.2, not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date. Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date and Special Interest Payment Date therefor having been so given, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid on the Special Interest Payment Date to the Persons in whose names the Notes (or their respective Predecessor Notes) are registered at the close of business on such Special Record Date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to the following clause (b).

(b) The Company may make payment of any Defaulted Interest in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the Notes may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, if, after notice given by the Company to the Trustee of the proposed payment pursuant to this clause, such manner of payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee.

Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section, each Note delivered under this Indenture upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange for, or in lieu of any other Note shall carry the rights to interest accrued and unpaid which were carried by such other Note.

SECTION 2.12 Computation of Interest. Interest on the Notes shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months.

SECTION 2.13 CUSIP Numbers. The Company in issuing the Notes and Common Stock upon conversion of the Notes may use CUSIP numbers (if then generally in use). The Trustee shall not be responsible for the use of CUSIP numbers, and the Trustee makes no representation as to their correctness as printed on any Note, certificate of Common Stock or notice to Holders and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes, and any notice shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such CUSIP numbers. The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee in writing of any change in the CUSIP numbers.

SECTION 2.14 Issuance, Transfer and Exchange of Common Stock Issuable Upon Conversion of the Notes.

(a) Shares of Common Stock to be issued upon conversion of Notes shall be physically delivered in certificated form to the Holders converting such Notes and the certificate representing such shares of Common Stock shall bear the Restricted Stock Legend unless removed in accordance with Section 2.1(e).

(b) If (i) shares of Common Stock to be issued upon conversion of Notes are to be registered in a name other than that of the Holder of such Notes or (ii) shares of Common Stock represented by a certificate bearing the Restricted Stock Legend are transferred subsequently by such Holder, then, the Holder must deliver to the transfer agent for the Common Stock and to the Company a certificate in substantially the form of Exhibit B as to compliance with the restrictions on transfer applicable to such shares of Common Stock and neither the transfer agent nor the registrar for the Common Stock shall be required to register any transfer of such Common Stock not so accompanied by a properly completed certificate.

(c) If certificates representing shares of Common Stock are issued upon the registration of transfer, exchange or replacement of any other certificate representing shares of Common Stock bearing the Restricted Stock Legend, or if a request is made to remove such Restricted Stock Legend from certificates representing shares of Common Stock, the certificates so issued shall bear the Restricted Stock Legend, or the Restricted Stock Legend shall not be removed, as the case may be, unless there is delivered to the Company such reasonably satisfactory evidence, which, in the case of a transfer made pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act, may include an Opinion of Counsel, as may be reasonably required by the Company, that neither the legend nor the restrictions on transfer set forth therein are required to ensure that transfers thereof comply with the provisions of Rule 144A or Rule 144 under the Securities Act and that such shares of Common Stock are securities that are not “restricted” within the meaning of Rule 144 under the Securities Act. Upon provision to the Company of such reasonably satisfactory evidence, the Company shall cause the transfer agent for the Common Stock to countersign and deliver certificates representing shares of Common Stock that do not bear the Restricted Stock Legend.

SECTION 2.15 Calculations in Respect of the Notes. The Company shall be responsible for making all calculations called for under the Notes. These calculations include, but are not limited to, determinations of the Closing Price of the Common Stock, any accrued interest payable on the Notes and the Conversion Rate of the Notes, and the projected payment schedule. The Company shall make these calculations in good faith and, absent manifest error, such calculations will be final and binding on Holders of the Note. The Company shall provide to the Trustee a schedule of its calculations, and the Trustee, subject to Sections 11.1 and 11.2, shall be entitled to rely upon the accuracy of such calculations without independent verification. The Trustee shall forward the Company’s calculations to any Holder of the Notes upon the request of such Holder.

If at any time the Company shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and the Company hereby appoints the Trustee as its agent to receive all such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands.

The Company may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies (in or outside of the City of New York) where the Notes may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind any such designation; provided, however, that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Company of its obligation to maintain an office or agency in the City of New York for such purposes. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and any change in the location of any such other office or agency.

SECTION 3.3 Money and Securities for Note Payments To Be Held in Trust. If the Company shall at any time act as its own Paying Agent, it will, on or before each due date of any payment in respect of the Notes, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto a sum of money in same day funds (or New York Clearing House funds if such deposit is made prior to the date that such deposit is required to be made), sufficient to make such payments when so becoming due until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided and will promptly notify the Trustee in writing of its action or failure to so act.

Whenever the Company shall have one or more Paying Agents for the Notes, it will, on or before each due date of any payment in respect of the Notes, deposit with any Paying Agent a sum of money in same day funds (or New York Clearing House funds if such deposit is made prior to the date on which such deposit is required to be made), that shall be available to the Trustee by 11:00 a.m. New York City time on such due date, sufficient to pay the amount so becoming due, such sum to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such payment, and (unless such Paying Agent is the Trustee) the Company will promptly notify the Trustee in writing of such action or any failure to so act.

The Company will cause each Paying Agent (other than the Trustee) to execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which such Paying Agent shall agree with the Trustee, subject to the provisions of this Section 3.3, that such Paying Agent will:

(a) hold all money held by it for the making of any payments in respect of the Notes in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto until such money shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided;

(b) give the Trustee prompt written notice of any Default by the Company (or any other obligor upon the Notes) in the making of any payment in respect of the Notes; and

(c) at any time during the continuance of any such Default, upon the written request of the Trustee, forthwith pay to the Trustee all money so held in trust by such Paying Agent.

The Company may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or for any other purpose, pay, or by Company Order direct any Paying Agent to pay, to the Trustee all money held in trust by the Company or such Paying Agent, such money to be held by the Trustee upon the same trusts as those upon which such money were held by the Company or such Paying Agent; and, upon such payment by any Paying Agent to the Trustee, such Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such money and/or shares of Common Stock.

Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in trust for the payment of any amounts due in respect of the Notes and remaining unclaimed for two years after such payment has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company on Company Order, or (if then held by the Company) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Note shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment to the Company, shall at the expense of the Company cause to be published once, in a leading daily newspaper (if practicable, The Wall Street Journal (Eastern Edition)) printed in the English language and of general circulation in New York City, notice that such money and/or shares of Common Stock remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such publication nor shall it be later than two years after such payment shall have become due and payable, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Company.

SECTION 3.4 Corporate Existence. Subject to Article IV, the Company will do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its corporate existence and the corporate rights (charter and statutory) licenses and franchises of the Company; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to preserve any such existence, right, license or franchise if the Board of Directors shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the Company, and that the loss thereof is not, and will not be, disadvantageous in any material respect to the Holders.

Delivery of such reports, information and documents to the Trustee shall be for informational purposes only, and the Trustee’s receipt thereof shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Company’s compliance with any of its covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on Officers’ Certificates or certificates delivered pursuant to Section 3.8).

If the Company nor is not subject to the requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Company shall furnish to all Holders of Rule 144A Securities and prospective purchasers of Rule 144A Securities designated by the Holders of Rule 144A Securities, promptly upon their request, the information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) promulgated under the Securities Act.

Upon the request of any Holder or any beneficial holder of the Notes or such Common Stock, the Company will deliver to such Holder a written statement as to whether such Holder and prospective purchaser have complied with such requirements

SECTION 3.10 Stay, Extension and Usury Laws. The Company covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it shall not at any time insist upon, plead, or in any manner

whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay, extension or usury law or other law which would prohibit or forgive the Company from paying all or any portion of the principal or interest on the Notes as contemplated herein, wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, or which may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture, and the Company (to the extent it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law and covenant that it will not, by resort to any such law, 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.

At any time (i) from the date of issuance to February 1, 2014 in the event of Change of Control and (ii) from February 1, 2014 to February 1, 2015 (regardless of whether a Change of Control has occurred), the Notes may be redeemed for cash, as a whole or from time to time in part, subject to the conditions specified in the form of Note set forth in Exhibit A hereto, which is hereby incorporated by reference and made a part of this Indenture, in an amount equal to the Redemption Price, as set forth in paragraph 5 of the Notes.

SECTION 5.2 Applicability of Article. Redemption of Notes at the election of the Company or otherwise, as permitted or required by any provision of this Indenture or the Notes, shall be made in accordance with such provision and this Article.

SECTION 5.3 Election to Redeem; Notice to Trustee. The election of the Company to redeem any Notes pursuant to Section 5.1 shall be evidenced by a Board Resolution. In case of any redemption at the election of the Company, the Company shall, not later than the earlier of the date that is 35 days prior to the Redemption Date fixed by the Company and the date that is 5 days prior to the date on which notice is given to the Holders (except as provided in Section 5.5 or unless a shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the Trustee), notify the Trustee of such Redemption Date and of the principal amount of Notes to be redeemed, deliver to the Trustee such documentation and records as shall enable the Trustee to select the Notes to be redeemed pursuant to Section 5.4 and direct the Trustee to redeem the Notes in accordance with the Board Resolution. Any such notice may be canceled at any time upon written notice form the Company to the Trustee prior to notice of such redemption being mailed to any Holder and shall thereby be void and of no effect.

SECTION 5.4 Selection by Trustee of Notes To Be Redeemed. If less than all the Notes are to be redeemed at any time pursuant to an optional redemption, the particular Notes to be redeemed shall be selected not more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date by the Trustee, from the outstanding Notes not previously called for redemption, in compliance with the

requirements of the Depositary or of the principal securities exchange, if any, on which such Notes are listed, or, if such Notes are not so listed, on a pro rata basis, by lot or by such other method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate (and in such manner as complies with applicable legal requirements) and which may provide for the selection for redemption of portions of the principal of the Notes; provided, however, that Notes selected for partial redemption shall be in denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples thereof.

The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company in writing of the Notes selected for redemption and, in the case of any Notes selected for partial redemption, the method it has chosen for the selection of Notes and the principal amount thereof to be redeemed and upon the Company’s written approval of such selection, the Trustee shall redeem the selected Notes.

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

SECTION 5.5 Notice of Redemption. Notice of redemption shall be given by first class mail (or, to the extent permitted or required by applicable procedures or regulations of the Depositary, electronically) not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date, to each Holder of Notes to be redeemed. At the Company’s written request, the Trustee shall give notice of redemption in the Company’s name and at the Company’s expense; provided, however, that the Company shall deliver to the Trustee, at least 35 days prior to the Redemption Date (unless a shorter notice period shall be satisfactory to the Trustee) a Company Order requesting that the Trustee give such notice at the Company’s expense and setting forth the information to be stated in such notice as provided in the following items:

(i) the Redemption Date,

(ii) the Redemption Price and the amount of accrued interest to but excluding the Redemption Date payable as provided in Section 5.7, if any,

(iv) if less than all outstanding Notes are to be redeemed, the aggregate principal amount of Notes to be redeemed and the aggregate principal amount of Notes to be outstanding after such partial redemption,

(v) in case any Note is to be redeemed in part only, the notice that relates to such Note shall state that on and after the Redemption Date, upon surrender of such Note, the Holder will receive, without charge, a new Note or Notes of authorized denominations for the principal amount thereof remaining unredeemed,

(vi) that on the Redemption Date, 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed (and accrued interest, if any, to but excluding the Redemption Date payable as provided in Section 5.7) will become due and payable upon each such Note, or the portion thereof, to be redeemed, and, unless the Company defaults in making the

redemption payment, that interest on Notes called for redemption (or the portion thereof) will cease to accrue on and after said date,

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

(viii) the name and address of the Paying Agent and the Conversion Agent,

(ix) that Notes called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect the Redemption Price,

(x) the CUSIP number of the Notes to be redeemed, provided that no representation is made as to the accuracy or correctness of the CUSIP number, if any, listed in such notice or printed on the Notes, and any redemption shall not be affected by any defect in such CUSIP numbers,

(xi) the paragraph of the Notes pursuant to which the Notes are to be redeemed,

(xii) that the Notes called for redemption may be converted at any time before the close of business one Business Day prior to the Redemption Date,

(xiii) whether the Company intends to satisfy its obligation by delivering Common Stock, cash or a combination of cash and Common Stock (and in such case, the dollar amount per Note to be satisfied in cash) in the event that Holders elect to convert their Notes in connection with the redemption;

(xiv) the Holders who wish to convert Notes must comply with the procedures in Article IX and paragraph 8 of the Notes, and

(xv) if the notice relates to a Change in Control, the events causing the Change in Control and the date of the Change in Control.

If the Company exercises its right to redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, the Company shall disseminate a press release containing information regarding the redemption, through a public medium that is customary for such press releases or publish the information on its Web Site or through such other public medium as the Company may use at that time.

SECTION 5.6 Deposit of Redemption Price. On or before 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on any Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit with the Trustee or with a Paying Agent (or, if the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 2.4) an amount of money sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of the Notes which are to be redeemed on that date, other than Notes or portions of Notes called for redemption that are beneficially owned by the Company and have been delivered by the Company to the Trustee for cancellation or Notes that have been converted.

SECTION 5.7 Notes Payable on Redemption Date. Notice of redemption having been given as aforesaid, the Notes or portions of Notes so to be redeemed shall, on the Redemption

Date, become due and payable at a price equal to the Redemption Price, except for Notes which are converted in accordance with the terms of this Indenture, and from and after such date (unless the Company shall default in the payment of the Redemption Price) such Notes shall cease to bear interest. Upon surrender of any such Note for redemption in accordance with said notice, such Note shall be paid by the Company at the Redemption Price on the Redemption Date; provided that if the Redemption Date is on a date that is after the relevant Record Date and on or prior to the corresponding Interest Payment Date, the Redemption Price shall not include accrued and unpaid interest and the Company shall instead pay such interest due on the Interest Payment Date to the Holder of record on the corresponding Record Date.

If any Note called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the principal shall, until paid, bear interest from the Redemption Date at the rate borne by the Notes.

SECTION 5.8 Notes Redeemed in Part. Any Note which is to be redeemed only in part (pursuant to the provisions of this Article) shall be surrendered at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose pursuant to Section 2.3 (with due endorsement by, or a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee duly executed by, the Holder thereof or such Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing), and the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery to the Holder of such Note at the expense of the Company, or cause to be delivered by book entry transaction through the Depositary, a new Note or Notes, of any authorized denomination as requested by such Holder, in an aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal amount of the Note so surrendered, provided, that each such new Note will be in a principal amount of $1,000 or integral multiple thereof.

If a Holder converts a portion of its Note prior to receipt of the redemption notice for a Note to be redeemed only in part, the converted portion will be deemed to be from the portion selected for redemption. In the event of any redemption in part, the Company will not be required to (i) issue, register the transfer of or exchange any Note during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before any selection of Notes for redemption and ending at the close of business on the earliest date on which the relevant notice of redemption is deemed to have been given to all Holders of Notes to be so redeemed; or (ii) register the transfer of or exchange any Note so selected for redemption, in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part.

SECTION 5.9 Arrangement on Call for Redemption.

(a) In connection with any redemption of Notes, the Company may arrange at or shortly before the time of the redemption for the purchase and conversion of any Notes called for redemption by an agreement with one or more investment banks or other purchasers to purchase such Notes by paying to the Trustee in trust for the Holders, on or prior to 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the Redemption Date, an amount that, together with any amounts deposited with the Trustee by the Company for the redemption of such Notes, is not less than the Redemption Price of such Notes. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article V, the obligation of the Company to pay the Redemption Prices of such Notes shall be deemed to be satisfied and discharged to the extent such amount is so paid by such purchasers;

provided, however, that nothing in this Section 5.9 shall relieve the Company of its obligation to pay the Redemption Price (plus accrued interest, if any to, but excluding, the relevant Redemption Date) on Notes called for redemption.

(b) If such an agreement is entered into, any Notes called for redemption that are not duly surrendered for conversion by the Holders thereof may, at the option of the Company, be deemed, to the fullest extent permitted by law, acquired by such purchasers from such Holders as of the close of business on the Redemption Date, subject to payment of the above amount as aforesaid.

(c) At the written direction of the Company, the Trustee shall hold and pay to the Holders whose Notes are selected for redemption any such amount paid to it for purchase in the same manner as it would for moneys deposited with it by the Company for the redemption of Notes. Without the Trustee’s prior written consent, no arrangement between the Company 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 Company 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 of any Notes between the Company and such purchasers, including the reasonable costs and out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Trustee in the defense of any claim or liability arising out of or in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers, duties, responsibilities or obligations under this Section 5.9.

ARTICLE VI

PURCHASE UPON A DESIGNATED EVENT

SECTION 6.1 Purchase at the Option of the Holder upon a Designated Event. If a Designated Event shall occur, each Holder shall have the right, at such Holder’s option, to require the Company to purchase any or all of such Holder’s Notes not previously called for redemption for cash on the date that is no later than 45 days after the date of the Company Notice of the occurrence of such Designated Event (subject to extension to comply with applicable law, as provided in Section 8.4) (the “Designated Event Purchase Date”). The Notes shall be repurchased in integral multiples of $1,000 of the principal amount. The Company shall purchase such Notes at a price (the “Designated Event Purchase Price”) equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be purchased plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the Designated Event Purchase Date.

SECTION 6.2 Notice of Designated Event. The Company, or at its request (which must be received by the Paying Agent at least three Business Days (or such lesser period as agreed to by the Paying Agent) prior to the date the Paying Agent is requested to give such notice as described below), the Paying Agent in the name of and at the expense of the Company, shall mail to all Holders and the Trustee a Company Notice of the occurrence of a Designated Event and of the purchase right arising as a result thereof, including the information required by Section 8.1, on or before the 30th day after the occurrence of such Designated Event. In addition, the Company will disseminate a press release containing information about the Designated Event and the repurchase right arising as a result of the Designated Event through a public medium that

is customary for such press releases or publish the information on the Company’s Web Site or through such other public medium as the Company may use at that time.

SECTION 6.3 Exercise of Option. For a Note to be so purchased at the option of the Holder, the Trustee must receive such Note duly endorsed for transfer, together with a written notice of purchase (a “Designated Event Purchase Notice”) and the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” on the reverse thereof duly completed, on or before the 30th day after the date of the Company Notice of the occurrence of such Designated Event, subject to extension to comply with applicable law, as provided in Section 8.4. The Designated Event Purchase Notice shall state:

(i) if the Notes are certificated, the certificate numbers of the Notes which the Holder shall deliver to be purchased, or, if the Notes are not certificated, the Designated Event Purchase Notice must comply with appropriate Depositary procedures;

(ii) the portion of the principal amount of the Notes which the Holder shall deliver to be purchased, which portion must be $1,000 in principal amount or an integral multiple thereof; and

(iii) that such Notes shall be purchased as of the Designated Event Purchase Date pursuant to the terms and conditions specified in paragraph 8 of the Notes and in this Indenture.

SECTION 6.4 Procedures. The Company shall purchase from a Holder, pursuant to this Article VI, Notes if the principal amount of such Notes is $1,000 or a multiple of $1,000 if so requested by such Holder.

Any purchase by the Company contemplated pursuant to the provisions of this Article VI shall be consummated by the delivery of the Designated Event Purchase Price to be received by the Holder promptly following the later of the Designated Event Purchase Date or the time of book-entry transfer or delivery of the Notes.

The Paying Agent shall promptly notify the Company of the receipt by it of any Designated Event Purchase Notice.

On or before 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Designated Event Purchase Date, the Company shall deposit with the Paying Agent (or if the Company or an Affiliate of the Company is acting as the Paying Agent, shall segregate and hold in trust) cash, sufficient to pay the aggregate Designated Event Purchase Price of the Notes to be purchased pursuant to this Article VI. Payment by the Paying Agent of the Designated Event Purchase Price for such Notes shall be made promptly following the later of the Designated Event Purchase Date and the time of book-entry transfer or delivery of such Notes. If the Paying Agent holds, in accordance with the terms of this Indenture, cash sufficient to pay the Designated Event Purchase Price of such Notes on the Designated Event Purchase Date, then, on and after such date, such Notes shall cease to be outstanding and interest on such Notes shall cease to accrue, whether or not book-entry transfer of such Notes is made or such Notes are delivered to the Paying Agent, and all other rights of the Holder shall terminate (other than the right to receive the Designated Event

Purchase Price upon delivery or transfer of the Notes). Nothing herein shall preclude the withholding of any tax required by law or regulations.

The Company shall require each Paying Agent (other than the Trustee) to agree in writing that the Paying Agent shall hold in trust for the benefit of Holders or the Trustee all cash held by the Paying Agent for the payment of the Designated Event Purchase Price and shall notify the Trustee of any Default by the Company in making any such payment. The Company at any time may require a Paying Agent to deliver all cash held by it to the Trustee and to account for any funds disbursed by the Paying Agent. Upon doing so, the Paying Agent shall have no further liability for the cash delivered to the Trustee.

All questions as to the validity, eligibility (including time of receipt) and acceptance of any Notes for repurchase shall be determined by the Company, whose determination shall be final and binding.

Notes in respect of which a Designated Event Purchase Notice has been given by the Holder thereof may not be converted on or after the date of the delivery of such Designated Event Purchase Notice, unless such Designated Event Purchase Notice has first been validly withdrawn as specified in the following two paragraphs.

A Designated Event Purchase Notice may be withdrawn by means of a written notice of withdrawal delivered to the office of the Paying Agent (with a copy to the Company) at

any time prior to 5:00 p.m. New York City time on the Business Day prior to the Designated Event Purchase Date, to which it relates specifying:

(ii) the principal amount of the Notes with respect to which such notice of withdrawal is being submitted; and

SECTION 8.5 Repayment to the Company. The Trustee and the Paying Agent shall return to the Company any cash or property that remains unclaimed as provided in paragraph 12 of the Notes and Section 3.3 hereof, together with interest that the Trustee or Paying Agent, as the case may be, has agreed to pay, if any, held by them for the payment of the Designated Event Purchase Price, provided, however, that to the extent that the aggregate amount of cash or property deposited by the Company pursuant to Section 6.4 exceeds the aggregate Designated Event Purchase Price of the Notes or portions thereof which the Company is obligated to purchase as of the Designated Event Purchase Date then promptly on and after the Business Day immediately following the Designated Event Purchase Date, the Trustee and the Paying Agent

shall return any such excess to the Company together with interest that the Trustee or Paying Agent, has agreed to pay, if any.

SECTION 8.6 Exchange in Lieu of Repurchase. The Company shall have the option, exercisable at any time or from time to time, by an instrument in writing signed by the Company and provided to the Paying Agent, to designate a, or change the existing designation of the, financial institution (a “Purchase Party”) to which Notes surrendered by a Holder for repurchase in accordance with Article VI will be initially offered by the Paying Agent on behalf of a Holder for exchange in lieu of repurchase. In order to accept any Notes surrendered for repurchase, the Purchase Party must agree to deliver, in exchange for such Notes, the Designated Event Purchase Price, for such Notes in the amount that would be payable if the Notes were repurchased by the Company in accordance with Article VI. If the Purchase Party accepts any Notes for repurchase, it will deliver to the Paying Agent, and the Paying Agent will deliver to Holders that surrendered such Notes for repurchase, the Designated Event Purchase Price, payable with respect to such Notes. In the event that the Purchase Party agrees to accept any Notes for repurchase but fails to deliver the Designated Event Purchase Price to the Paying Agent by the date of repurchase, the Notes will be repurchased by the Company in accordance with Article VI and the Company will, as promptly as practical thereafter, but not later than one Business Day following the Designated Event Purchase Date cause the Designated Event Purchase Price, for the Notes to be paid (provided, however, that interest shall continue to accrue on the Notes to be repurchased until the Designated Event Purchase Price has been paid). Any Notes purchased by the Purchase Party shall remain outstanding. The designation by the Company of a Purchase Party does not require such Purchase Party to accept any Notes. If the Purchase Party declines to accept any Notes surrendered for repurchase, the Company will repurchase the Notes on the terms provided in this Indenture. The Company will not pay any consideration to, or otherwise enter into any arrangement with, the Purchase Party for or with respect to such designation.

ARTICLE IX

CONVERSION OF NOTES

SECTION 9.1 Right To Convert.

(a) Subject to and upon compliance with the provisions of this Article IX, a Holder may convert its Notes at any time during which the following conditions are met:

(i) during any calendar quarter commencing at any time after March 31, 2013, and only during such calendar quarter, if, as of the last day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter, the Closing Price per share of the Common Stock for at least twenty Trading Days in a period of the thirty consecutive Trading Days ending on the last Trading Day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter is more than 120% of the Conversion Price on the last day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter;

(ii) [intentionally omitted];

(iii) in the event that the Company calls the Notes for redemption pursuant to Article V hereof, at any time prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, one Business Day

prior to the Redemption Date, provided that if the Company elects to redeem less than all the Notes, only those Notes called for redemption may be redeemed pursuant to this Section 9.1(a)(iii);

(iv) upon the occurrence of a Make Whole Event at any time beginning ten Trading Days before the anticipated effective date of a Make Whole Event and until the date specified in the Make Whole Event Conversion Notice, in which case the Company will notify the Holders and Trustee at least 10 Trading Days prior to the anticipated effective date of any Make Whole Event that the Company knows or reasonably should know will occur (a “Make Whole Event Conversion Notice”); provided, however, that if the Company does not know, and should not reasonably know, that a Make Whole Event will occur until a date that is within ten Trading Days before the anticipated effective date of such Make Whole Event, the Company will notify the Holders and the Trustee promptly after the Company has knowledge of such Make Whole Event;

(v) (A) in the event the Company becomes a party to any transaction or event (including but not limited to any consolidation, merger or binding share exchange, other than a change resulting from a subdivision or combination) pursuant to which all or substantially all Shares of the Common Stock would be converted into cash, securities or other property, in which case a Holder may surrender Notes for conversion at any time from and after the date that is 15 days prior to the anticipated effective date for such transaction until the earlier of 15 days after the actual effective date of such transaction or event or the date on which the Company announces that such transaction or event will not take place, and the Company will provide written notice to the Trustee and the Holders as promptly as practicable following the Company’s announcement of such transaction or event (but in any case not fewer than 15 days prior to the effective date of such transaction, or if such transaction also constitutes a Designated Event, no later than the date on which the Company provides a Company Notice of the occurrence of a Designated Event); provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Notes shall not become subject to conversion by reason of a transaction which is effected solely to change the Company’s jurisdiction of incorporation and which results in a reclassification, conversion or exchange of outstanding shares of the Company’s Common Stock solely into shares of common stock of the surviving entity; or

(B) in the event the Company elects to (x) distribute to all holders of Common Stock assets, debt securities or rights to purchase securities, other than rights referred to in (y) below of the Company, which distribution has a per share value as determined by the Board of Directors exceeding 10% of the Closing Price of the Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the declaration date for such distribution, or (y) distribute to all holders of Common Stock rights, options or warrants entitling them to purchase shares of Common Stock at less than the Current Market Price, then both in the case of the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), the Company must notify the Holders at least 20 days immediately prior to the ex-dividend date for such distribution, and once the Company has given such notice, Holders may surrender their Notes for conversion at any time thereafter until the earlier of the close of business on the Business Day immediately prior to the ex-dividend date and the Company’s announcement that such distribution will not take place, even if the Notes are not otherwise convertible at such time; provided,

however, that a Holder may not exercise this right to convert if the Holder is otherwise entitled to participate in the distribution without conversion (as used herein, the term “ex-dividend date” or “ex-date” when used with respect to any issuance or distribution, shall mean the first date upon which a sale of shares of Common Stock does not automatically transfer the right to receive the relevant dividend or distribution from the seller of such Common Stock to its buyer); or

(vi) at any time during the period beginning ten Trading Days prior to Stated Maturity and ending at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Business Day immediately preceding the Stated Maturity.

(b) Upon the Company’s determination that Holders are or will be entitled to convert Notes in accordance with the provisions of this Section 9.1, the Company will provide written notice to the Trustee and, at the Company’s request, made at least one Business Day prior to the date upon which such notice is to be mailed, and at the Company’s expense, the Trustee shall give the notice in the Company’s name to the Holders; provided, however, that, in all cases, the text of the notice shall be prepared by the Company.

(c) The conversion rate (the “Conversion Rate”) shall be set forth in paragraph 8 of the Notes, subject to the adjustments set forth herein. The initial Conversion Rate is 35.0777 shares of Common Stock per $1,000 principal amount of each Note.

SECTION 9.2 Determination of Satisfaction of Certain Conversion Triggers.

(a) For each calendar quarter, beginning with the calendar quarter commencing after March 31, 2013, the Company shall determine, on the first Business Day following the last Trading Day of such calendar quarter, whether the Notes are convertible, pursuant to clause (i) of Section 9.1(a), and, if so, will notify the Trustee, the Conversion Agent, and the Holders in writing. Upon written request of the Conversion Agent, the Company shall provide, or cause to be provided to, the Conversion Agent the Closing Price per share of Common Stock for the thirty consecutive Trading Days ending on the last Trading Day of the preceding calendar quarter.

(b) [Intentionally omitted.]

SECTION 9.3 Conversion Procedures. To convert Notes, a Holder must satisfy the requirements in this Section 9.3 and in paragraph 8 of the Notes. The date on which the Holder satisfies all those requirements and delivers an irrevocable conversion notice, together, if the Notes are in certificated form, with the certificated Note, to the Conversion Agent, along with appropriate endorsements and transfer documents, and pays any transfer or similar tax, is the conversion date (the “Conversion Date”). Upon conversion of a Note, the Company shall deliver to the Holder, through the Conversion Agent, the amounts determined in accordance with Section 9.18, which shall be owing upon such conversion on the third Business Day following the last Trading Day of the relevant Conversion Reference Period. The Person in whose name the certificate is registered shall only be treated as a stockholder of record on and after the Conversion Date; provided, however, that no surrender of Notes on any date when the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed shall be effective to constitute the Person or

Persons entitled to receive the shares of Common Stock upon such conversion as the record holder or holders of such shares of Common Stock on such date, but such surrender shall be effective to constitute the Person or Persons entitled to receive such shares of Common Stock as the record holder or holders thereof for all purposes at 5:00 p.m. New York City time on the next succeeding Business Day on which such stock transfer books are open; such conversion shall be at the Conversion Rate in effect on the date that such Notes were surrendered for conversion, as if the stock transfer books of the Company had not been closed. Upon conversion of Notes, such Person shall no longer be a Holder of such Notes.

No payment or adjustment shall be made for dividends on or other distributions with respect to any Common Stock except as provided in Section 9.8 or as otherwise provided in this Indenture.

Except as provided in this paragraph, a Holder converting Notes shall not be entitled to receive any accrued and unpaid interest on any such Notes being converted. By delivery to the Holder the cash and the number of shares of Common Stock or other consideration issuable or payable upon conversion in accordance with this Section 9.3, any accrued and unpaid interest on such Notes will be deemed to have been paid in full. If any Conversion Date occurs subsequent to the Regular Record Date preceding an Interest Payment Date but prior to such Interest Payment Date, the Holder of such Notes at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on any Record Date shall receive the interest payable on such Note on such Interest Payment Date notwithstanding the conversion thereof. Notes surrendered for conversion during the period from 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on any Record Date shall (except in the case of Notes which have been called for redemption on a Redemption Date within such period) be accompanied by payment from converting Holders, for the account of the Company, in New York Clearing House funds, of an amount equal to the interest payable on such Interest Payment Date on the Notes being surrendered for conversion; provided, however, if the Company elects to redeem Notes on a date that is after the Regular Record Date but on or prior to the corresponding Interest Payment Date, and such Holder elects to convert those Notes, the Holder will not be required to pay the Company, at the time that Holder surrenders those Notes for conversion, the amount of interest such Holder will receive on the Interest Payment Date. Upon conversion of Notes, that portion of accrued but unpaid interest, if any, with respect to the converted Notes shall not be canceled, extinguished or forfeited, but rather shall be deemed to be paid in full to the Holder thereof through delivery of cash or a combination of cash and Common Stock in exchange for the Notes being converted pursuant to the provisions hereof, and the cash or the Fair Market Value of such shares of Common Stock (together with any such cash payment in lieu of fractional shares) shall be treated as issued, to the extent thereof, first in exchange for interest accrued and unpaid through the Conversion Date and the balance, if any, of such cash or the Fair Market Value of such Common Stock (and any such cash payment) shall be treated as issued in exchange for the principal amount of the Notes being converted pursuant to the provisions hereof. The Company will not adjust the Conversion Rate to account for accrued interest on any Note.

If a Holder converts more than one Note at the same time, the amount of cash or the combination of cash and the number or shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion shall be based on the total principal amount of the Notes converted.

Upon surrender of a Note that is converted in part, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder, a new Note in an authorized denomination equal in principal amount to the unconverted portion of the Note surrendered.

If the last day on which Notes may be converted is not a Business Day in a place where a Conversion Agent is located, the Notes may be surrendered to that Conversion Agent on the next succeeding Business Day.

Holders that have already delivered a Designated Event Purchase Notice with respect to a Note, may not surrender such Note for conversion until the Designated Event Purchase Notice has been withdrawn in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 8.2.

SECTION 9.4 Cash Payments in Lieu of Fractional Shares. The Company shall not issue a fractional share of Common Stock upon conversion of Notes. Instead the Company shall deliver cash for the Fair Market Value of the fractional share. The Fair Market Value of a fractional share determined to the nearest 1/10,000th of a share, shall be equal to the applicable portion of the arithmetic average of the Volume Weighted Average Price of our Common Stock for each of the 30 consecutive Trading Days of the Conversion Reference Period, rounding to the nearest whole cent. Whether fractional shares are issuable upon a conversion will be determined on the basis of the total number of Notes that the Holder is then converting into Common Stock and the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion.

SECTION 9.5 Taxes on Conversion. If a Holder converts Notes, the Company shall pay any documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer tax due on the issue of shares of Common Stock upon the conversion. However, the Holder shall pay any such tax which is due because the Holder requests the shares to be issued in a name other than the Holder’s name. The Conversion Agent may refuse to deliver the certificates representing the Common Stock being issued in a name other than the Holder’s name until the Conversion Agent receives a sum sufficient to pay any tax which shall be due because the shares are to be issued in a name other than the Holder’s name. Nothing herein shall preclude the withholding of any tax required by law or regulations.

SECTION 9.6 Exchange in Lieu of Conversion. The Company shall have the option, exercisable at any time or from time to time, by an instrument in writing signed by the Company and provided to the Conversion Agent, to designate a, or change the existing designation of the, financial institution (an “Exchange Party”) to which Notes surrendered by a Holder for conversion will be initially offered by the Conversion Agent on behalf of a Holder for exchange in lieu of conversion. In order to accept any Notes surrendered for conversion, the Exchange Party must agree to deliver in exchange for such Notes, the cash or combination of cash and shares of Common Stock which would otherwise be due upon conversion in accordance with Section 9.3. If the Exchange Party accepts any Notes for conversion, it will deliver to the Conversion Agent, and the Conversion Agent will deliver to converting Holders, the cash or combination of cash and shares of Common Stock which would otherwise be due upon conversion. In the event that the Exchange Party agrees to accept any Notes for conversion but fails to deliver the consideration for the converted Notes by the second Business Day following the last Trading Day of the applicable Conversion Reference Period, the Notes will be converted

by the Company in accordance with this Article IX and the Company will, as promptly as practical thereafter, but not later than three Business Days following the last Trading Day of the applicable Conversion Reference Period, deliver to the Holder the cash or combination of cash and shares of Common Stock which would otherwise be due upon conversion in accordance with Section 9.3. Any Notes exchanged by the Exchange Party shall remain outstanding. The designation by the Company of an Exchange Party does not require such Exchange Party to accept any Notes for conversion. If the Exchange Party declines to accept any Notes surrendered for conversion, the Company will convert the Notes on the terms provided in this Indenture. The Company will not pay any consideration to, or otherwise enter into any arrangement with, the Exchange Party for or with respect to such designation.

SECTION 9.7 Covenants of the Company. The Company shall, prior to issuance of any Notes hereunder, and from time to time as may be necessary, reserve out of its authorized but unissued Common Stock a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to permit the conversion of the Notes.

All shares of Common Stock delivered upon conversion of the Notes shall be newly issued shares or treasury shares, shall be duly and validly issued and fully paid and nonassessable and shall be free from preemptive rights and free of any lien or adverse claim placed thereon by the Company.

The Company shall endeavor promptly to comply with all federal and state securities laws regulating the order and delivery of shares of Common Stock upon the conversion of Notes, if any, and shall cause to have listed or quoted all such shares of Common Stock on each United States national securities exchange or over-the-counter or other domestic market on which the Common Stock is then listed or quoted.

SECTION 9.8 Adjustments to Conversion Rate. The Conversion Rate shall be subject to adjustment from time to time, without duplication, as follows:

(a) In case the Company shall (i) pay a dividend, or make a distribution on its Common Stock, payable exclusively in shares of Common Stock or other Capital Stock of the Company; (ii) subdivide or split its outstanding Common Stock into a greater number of shares; (iii) combine or reclassify its outstanding Common Stock into a smaller number of shares; or (iv) issue by reclassification of the shares of Common Stock any shares of the Company’s Capital Stock, the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the record date or effective date, as the case may be, for the adjustment pursuant to this Section 9.8(a) as described below, shall be adjusted so that the Holder of any Notes thereafter surrendered for conversion shall be entitled to receive the number of shares of Common Stock and/or Capital Stock which such Holder would have owned or have been entitled to receive after the happening of any of the events described above had such Notes been converted immediately prior to such record date or effective date, as the case may be. An adjustment made pursuant to this Section 9.8(a) shall become effective immediately after the applicable record date in the case of a dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the applicable effective date in the case of subdivision, combination or reclassification of the Common Stock. If any dividend or distribution of the type described in clause (i) above is not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall again be immediately readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors determines not to pursue

such action, to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared. If any subdivision or split, combination or reclassification or issuance of the type described in clauses (ii) through (iv) of this Section 9.8(a) is not so made, the Conversion Rate shall again be immediately readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors determines not to pursue such action, to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such subdivision or split, combination or reclassification or issuance had not been declared.

(b) In case the Company at any time or from time to time after the issuance of the Notes shall issue rights or warrants to all or substantially all holders of the Common Stock entitling them to subscribe for or purchase Common Stock at a price per share less (or having a conversion price per share less) than the Current Market Price per share of Common Stock, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted so that the same shall equal the Conversion Rate determined by multiplying the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the record date fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants (prior to any adjustment in accordance with this Section 9.8(b)) by a fraction of which (i) the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such record date plus the number of additional shares of Common Stock offered for subscription or purchase, and (ii) the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such record date plus the number of shares which the aggregate offering price of the total number of shares so offered would purchase at the Current Market Price per share of Common Stock on the earlier of such record date and the Trading Day immediately preceding the ex date for such issuance of rights or warrants. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever any such rights or warrants are issued, and shall become effective immediately after the opening of business on the day following the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants. To the extent that shares of Common Stock are not delivered after the expiration of such rights or warrants, the Conversion Rate shall immediately be readjusted to the Conversion Rate which would then be in effect had the adjustments made upon the issuance of such rights or warrants been made on the basis of delivery of only the number of shares of Common Stock actually delivered. If such rights or warrants are not so issued, the Conversion Rate shall again be immediately readjusted to be the Conversion Rate which would then be in effect if such record date 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 shares of Common Stock at less than such Current Market Price, and in determining the aggregate offering price of such shares of Common Stock, there shall be taken into account any consideration received by the Company for such rights or warrants, the value of such consideration, if other than cash, to be determined by the Board of Directors.

(c) In case the Company shall, by dividend or in a merger, amalgamation or consolidation or otherwise, distribute to all or substantially all holders of Common Stock any evidences of Indebtedness, shares of Capital Stock of any class or series, other securities, cash or assets (excluding (i) any dividend, distribution or issuance covered by those referred to in Section 9.8(a) or 9.8(b) hereof, (ii) any dividend or distribution paid exclusively in cash referred to in Section 9.8(d) hereof or (iii) any dividend or distribution that constitutes a Spin-Off which is covered by Section 9.8(e) hereof), or rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any of its securities (including the distribution of rights to all holders of Common Stock pursuant to a stockholders rights plan or the detachment of such rights under the terms of such stockholder

rights plan but excluding those rights or warrants referred to in Section 9.8(b)) (any of the foregoing hereinafter in this Section 9.8(c) called the “Distributed Assets”), then in each such case the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted so that the same shall equal the Conversion Rate determined by multiplying the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the record date fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution by a fraction of which (A) the numerator shall be the Current Market Price per share of the Common Stock and (B) the denominator shall be (1) the Current Market Price per share of the Common Stock less (2) the Fair Market Value on such record date (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive evidence of such Fair Market Value, and described in an Officers’ Certificate filed with the Trustee and the Paying Agent) of the portion of the Distributed Assets so distributed applicable to one share of Common Stock. Such adjustment shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution; provided, however, that, if (i) the Fair Market Value of the portion of the Distributed Assets so distributed applicable to one share of Common Stock is equal to or greater than the Current Market Price of the Common Stock or (ii) the Current Market Price of the Common Stock is greater than the Fair Market Value per share of such Distributed Assets by less than $1.00, then, in lieu of the adjustment provided in this Section 9.8(c), adequate provision shall be made so that each Holder shall have the right to receive upon conversion, in addition to the shares of Common Stock, the kind and amount of assets, debt securities, or rights or warrants comprising the Distributed Assets the Holder would have received had such Holder converted such Notes immediately prior to the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution. In the event that such distribution is not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall again be adjusted to the Conversion Rate which would then be in effect if such distribution had not been declared.

(d) In case the Company shall make any distributions, by dividend or otherwise, consisting exclusively of cash to all or substantially all holders of outstanding shares of Common Stock, then, and in each such case, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted so that the same shall equal the Conversion Rate determined by multiplying the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the record date fixed for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive such distribution by a fraction of which (A) the numerator shall be the Current Market Price per share of the Common Stock and (B) the denominator shall be (1) the Current Market Price per share of Common Stock minus (2) the amount per share of such distributions (appropriately adjusted from time to time for any stock dividends on or subdivisions or combination of Common Stock); provided, however, that if (i) the per share amount of such distribution equals or exceeds the Current Market Price of the Common Stock or (ii) the Current Market Price of the Common Stock exceeds the per share amount of such distribution by less than $1.00, in lieu of the foregoing adjustment, adequate provision shall be made so that each Holder of a Note shall have the right to receive upon conversion, such dividend or distribution such Holder would have received had such Holder converted each Note immediately prior to the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive the distribution.

(e) In the event that the Company makes any distribution to all holders of Common Stock that constitutes a Spin-Off, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted so that the same shall equal the Conversion Rate determined by multiplying the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the record date fixed for the determination of

holders of Common Stock entitled to receive such distribution by a fraction of which (i) the numerator shall be the Spin-Off Market Price per share of the Common Stock on such record date plus the Spin-Off Market Price per Equity Interest of the Subsidiary or other business unit of the Company on such record date applicable to each share of Common Stock and (ii) the denominator shall be the Spin-Off Market Price per share of the Common Stock. The adjustment to the Conversion Rate set forth in this Section 9.8(e) will occur at the earlier of (1) the 10th Trading Day from, and including, the effective date of the Spin-Off and (2) the date of the Initial Public Offering of the securities being distributed in the Spin-Off, if that Initial Public Offering is effected simultaneously with the Spin-Off; provided, however, that, if (i) the Spin-Off Market Price per Equity Interest of the Subsidiary so distributed applicable to one share of Common Stock is equal to or greater than the Current Market Price of the Common Stock or (ii) the Current Market Price of the Common Stock is greater than the Spin-Off Market price per Equity Interest of the Subsidiary by less than $1.00, in lieu of the foregoing adjustment, adequate provision shall be made so that each Holder of a Note shall have the right to receive upon conversion, such distribution such Holder would have received had such Holder converted each Note immediately prior to the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive the distribution.

(f) In case a tender or exchange offer made by the Company or any Subsidiary shall expire and such tender or exchange offer (as amended upon the expiration thereof) shall require the payment to stockholders of consideration per share of Common Stock having a Fair Market Value (as determined in good faith by the Company’s Board of Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive and described in a resolution of the Board of Directors) that as of the last time (the “Expiration Time”) tenders or exchanges may be made pursuant to such tender or exchange offer (as it may be amended) exceeds the Closing Price of a share of Common Stock on the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Time, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted so that the same shall equal the rate determined by multiplying the Conversion Rate by a fraction,

(i) the numerator of which shall be the sum of (x) the Fair Market Value (determined as aforesaid) of the aggregate consideration payable to stockholders 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 shares of Common Stock outstanding (less any Purchased Shares) at the Expiration Time and the Closing Price of a share of Common Stock on the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Time, and

(ii) the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (including any tendered or exchanged shares) at the Expiration Time multiplied by the Closing Price of a share of Common Stock on the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Time, such adjustment to become effective immediately prior to the opening of business on the day following the Expiration Time. If the Company is obligated to purchase shares pursuant to any such tender or exchange offer, but the Company is permanently prevented by applicable law from effecting any such purchases or all such purchases are rescinded, the Conversion Rate shall again immediately be

readjusted to be the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such tender or exchange offer had not been made.

(g) Upon conversion of the Notes, the Holders shall receive, if they receive shares of Common Stock, in addition to the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion, the rights issued under any shareholder rights plan the Company implements (notwithstanding the occurrence of an event causing such rights to separate from the Common Stock at or prior to the time of conversion) unless, prior to conversion, the rights have expired, terminated or been redeemed or exchanged in accordance with the rights plan. If, and only if, the Holders of Notes receive rights under such shareholder rights plans as described in the preceding sentence upon conversion of their Notes, then no other adjustment pursuant to this Section 9.8 shall be made in connection with such shareholder rights plans.

(h) For purposes of this Section 9.8, the number of shares of Common Stock 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 shares of Common Stock. The Company shall not pay any dividend or make any distribution on shares of Common Stock held in the treasury of the Company.

(i) Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, in no event shall the Conversion Rate as adjusted pursuant to this Section 9.8 exceed 41.2881 shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion per $1,000 principal amount of Notes, other than on account of proportional adjustments to the Conversion Rate in the manner set forth in paragraphs (a) through (c) of this Section 9.8.

SECTION 9.9 Calculation Methodology. Except as stated in this Article IX, the Conversion Rate will not be adjusted for the issuance of Common Stock or any securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock or carrying the right to purchase any of the foregoing. If after an adjustment a Holder of a Note upon conversion of such Note may receive shares of two or more classes of Capital Stock of the Company, the Conversion Rate shall thereafter be subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of an action with respect to any such class of Capital Stock as is contemplated by this Article IX with respect to the Common Stock, on terms comparable to those applicable to Common Stock in this Article IX. All calculations under Article VIII, Section 9.8 and this Section 9.9 shall be made to the nearest cent or to the nearest 1/10,000th of a share, as the case may be.

SECTION 9.10 When No Adjustment Required. No adjustment to the Conversion Rate need be made:

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

(ii) upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock or options or rights to purchase those shares pursuant to any present or future employee, director or

consultant benefit plan or program of or assumed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries;

(iii) upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock pursuant to any option, warrant, right, or exercisable, exchangeable or convertible security not described in paragraph (ii) above and outstanding as of the date of this Indenture;

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

(v) for accrued and unpaid interest (including Liquidated Damages owed, if any).

To the extent the Notes become convertible into cash, assets, or property (other than Capital Stock of the Company or securities to which Section 9.14 applies), no adjustment shall be made thereafter as to the cash, assets or property. Interest shall not accrue on such cash.

No adjustment need be made for a transaction referred to in Sections 9.8(b), (c) or (e) if Holders of the Notes may participate in the transaction on a basis and with notice that the Board of Directors determines to be fair and appropriate in light of the basis and notice on which holders of Common Stock participate in the transaction.

SECTION 9.11 Notice of Adjustment. Whenever the Conversion Rate is adjusted, the Company shall promptly mail, or cause to be mailed, by first class mail (or, to the extent permitted or required by applicable procedures or regulations of the Depositary, electronically) to Holders in accordance with Section 14.2 a notice of the adjustment. The Company shall file with the Trustee and the Conversion Agent a certificate signed by the Chief Financial Officer of the Company setting forth the adjusted Conversion Rate. The certificate shall, absent manifest error, be conclusive evidence that the adjustment is correct. Neither the Trustee nor any Conversion Agent shall be under any duty or responsibility with respect to any such certificate except to exhibit the same to any Holder desiring inspection thereof.

SECTION 9.12 Voluntary Increase. The Company may make such increases in the Conversion Rate, in addition to those required by Section 9.8, as the Board of Directors considers to be advisable to avoid or diminish any income tax to holders of Common Stock or rights to purchase Common Stock 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 Company may from time to time increase the Conversion Rate by any amount for any period of time if the period is at least 20 days, the increase is irrevocable during the period and the Board of Directors shall have made a determination that such increase would be in the best interests of the Company, which determination shall be conclusive. Whenever the Conversion Rate is so increased, the Company shall mail to Holders and file with the Trustee and the Conversion Agent a notice of such increase. Neither the Trustee nor any Conversion Agent shall be under any duty or responsibility with respect to any such notice except to exhibit the same to any Holder desiring inspection thereof. The Company shall mail the notice at least 15 days before the date the increased Conversion Rate takes effect. The notice shall state the increased Conversion Rate and the period it shall be in effect.

SECTION 9.13 Notice to Holders Prior to Certain Actions. In case:

(a) The Company shall declare a dividend (or any other distribution) on its Common Stock that would require an adjustment in the Conversion Rate pursuant to Section 9.8;

(b) The Company shall authorize the granting to all or substantially all the holders of its Common Stock of rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any share of any class or any other rights or warrants;

(c) Of any reclassification or reorganization of the Common Stock of the Company (other than a subdivision or combination of its outstanding Common Stock, or a change in par value, or from par value to no par value, or from no par value to par value), or of any consolidation or merger to which the Company is a party and for which approval of any shareholders of the Company is required, or of the sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company; or

(d) Of the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding-up of the Company, the Company shall cause to be filed with the Conversion Agent and shall cause to be mailed to each Holder at its address appearing on the Note Register, as promptly as possible but in any event at least 15 days (10 days in the case of (a) or (b) above) prior to the applicable date hereinafter specified, a notice stating (x) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution or rights or warrants, or, if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of Common Stock of record to be entitled to such dividend, distribution, or rights or warrants are to be determined or (y) the date on which such reclassification, reorganization, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up is expected to become effective or occur, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of Common Stock of record shall be entitled to exchange their Common Stock for securities, cash or other property deliverable upon such reclassification, reorganization, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up. Failure to give such notice, or any defect therein, shall not affect the legality or validity of such dividend, distribution, reclassification, reorganization, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up.

SECTION 9.14 Effect of Reclassification, Consolidation, Merger, Binding Share Exchange or Sale.

(a) If any of following events occur (each, a “Business Combination”):

(i) any recapitalization, reclassification or change of the Common Stock, other than a change in par value, or from par value to no par value, or from no par value to par value, or as a result of a subdivision or a combination;

(ii) a consolidation, merger or binding share exchange involving the Company and another Person; or

(iii) a sale, conveyance or lease to another Person of all or substantially all of the property and assets of the Company;

in each case as a result of which holders of Common Stock are entitled to receive stock, other securities, other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) with respect to or

in exchange for Common Stock, 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 the Holders of the Notes then outstanding will be entitled thereafter to convert such Notes into cash equal to the Fair Market Value of shares of stock, other securities or other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) which they would have owned or been entitled to receive upon such Business Combination had such Holders’ Notes been convertible and converted into Common Stock immediately prior to such Business Combination, except that, if applicable, the Conversion Rate will not be adjusted pursuant to Section 9.1(d) unless a conversion notice is received by the Conversion Agent within the applicable time period as specified in Section 9.1(d).

(b) In the event holders of Common Stock have the opportunity to elect the form of consideration to be received in such Business Combination, the Company shall make adequate provision whereby the Holders of the Notes shall have a reasonable opportunity to determine the form of consideration into which all of Notes, treated as a single class, shall be convertible from and after the effective date of such Business Combination. Such determination shall be (i) based on the weighted average of elections made by Holders of the Notes who participate in such determination, (ii) subject to any limitations to which all of the holders of the Common Stock are subject, such as pro-rata reductions applicable to any portion of the consideration payable in such Business Combination and (iii) conducted in such a manner as to be completed by the date which is the earliest of (x) the deadline for elections to be made by stockholders of the Company, and (y) two Trading Days prior to the anticipated effective date of the Business Combination. The Company shall provide notice of the opportunity to determine the form of such consideration, as well as notice of the determination made by Holders (and the weighted average of elections), by issuing a press release, or providing other appropriate notice, such as by posting such notice with the Depositary, and providing a copy of such notice to the Trustee. In the event the effective date of the Business Combination is delayed beyond the initially anticipated effective date, Holders shall be given the opportunity to make subsequent similar determinations in regard to such delayed effective date. The Company may not become a party to any such transaction unless its terms are materially consistent with this Section 9.14.

(c) Any supplemental indenture entered into pursuant to paragraph (a) of this Section 9.14 shall provide for adjustments which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Article IX. If, in the case of any such Business Combination, the stock or other securities and assets receivable thereupon by a holder of shares of Common Stock 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 Business Combination, 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 as the Board of Directors shall reasonably consider necessary by reason of the foregoing, including to the extent practicable the provisions providing for the repurchase rights set forth in Article VI hereof. The Company shall cause notice of the execution of such supplemental indenture to be mailed to each Holder, at its address appearing on the Note Register, within 20 days after execution thereof. Failure to deliver such notice shall not affect the legality or validity of such supplemental indenture.

(d) This Section 9.14 shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications, changes, consolidations, mergers, combinations, binding share exchanges, sales and conveyances.

(e) If this Section 9.14 applies to any event or occurrence, Section 9.8 shall not apply.

(f) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section, and for the avoidance of doubt, this Section shall not affect the right of a Holder to convert its Notes prior to the effective date of the Business Combination.

SECTION 9.15 Responsibility of Trustee. The Trustee and any Conversion Agent shall not at any time be under any duty or responsibility to determine the Conversion Price, calculate the Conversion Rate or determine whether any facts exist which may require any adjustment of the Conversion Rate, or with respect to the nature or extent or calculation of any such adjustment when made, or with respect to the method employed, or herein or in any supplemental indenture provided to be employed, in making the same and, subject to Sections 11.1 and 11.2 hereof and the provisions of this Article IX, shall be protected in relying upon an Officers’ Certificate with respect to the same. The Trustee and any Conversion Agent shall not be accountable with respect to the validity or value (or the kind or amount) of any shares of Common Stock, or of any securities or property, which may at any time be issued or delivered upon the conversion of any Notes and the Trustee and any Conversion Agent make no representations with respect thereto. Neither the Trustee nor any Conversion Agent shall be responsible for any failure of the Company to issue, transfer or deliver any shares of Common Stock or stock certificates or other securities or property or cash upon the surrender of any Notes for the purpose of conversion or to comply with any of the duties, responsibilities or covenants of the Company contained herein. Neither the Trustee nor the Conversion Agent shall be responsible for determining whether any event has occurred that makes the Notes eligible for conversion or no longer eligible therefor until the Company has delivered to the Trustee and the Conversion Agent written notice with respect to the commencement or termination of such conversion rights, on which notices the Trustee and the Conversion Agent may conclusively rely, and the Company agrees to deliver such notices to the Trustee and the Conversion Agent immediately after the occurrence of any such event or at such other times as shall be provided for herein.

SECTION 9.16 Successive Adjustments. After an adjustment to the Conversion Rate under Section 9.8, any subsequent event requiring an adjustment under Section 9.8 shall cause an adjustment to the Conversion Rate as so adjusted.

SECTION 9.17 General Considerations. Whenever successive adjustments to the Conversion Rate are called for pursuant to this Article IX, such adjustments shall be made to the Current Market Price as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the intent of this Article IX and to avoid unjust or inequitable results as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company.

SECTION 9.18 Settlement Upon Conversion.

(a) If a Holder elects to convert all or any portion of a Note as set forth in Section 9.1 and delivers an irrevocable conversion notice, together, if the Notes are in certificated form, with the certificated Notes as set forth in Section 9.3, then upon conversion, such Holder shall receive, for each $1,000 principal amount of Notes surrendered for conversion: (A) cash in an amount equal to the lesser of (1) $1,000 and (2) the Conversion Value; and (B) if the Conversion Value is greater than $1,000, a number of shares of Common Stock (the “Remaining Shares”) equal to the sum of the Daily Share Amounts for each of the 30 consecutive Trading Days in the Conversion Reference Period, appropriately adjusted to reflect events occurring during the Conversion Reference Period that would result in an adjustment to the Conversion Rate in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.8, subject to the Company’s right to deliver cash in lieu of all or a portion of such Remaining Shares as set forth in Section 9.18(b). The Company will deliver such cash and any shares of Common Stock, together with any cash payable for fractional shares, to such Holder in accordance with Section 9.4.

(b) The Company may elect to pay cash to a Holder of Notes surrendered for conversion in lieu of all or a portion of the Remaining Shares otherwise issuable pursuant to Section 9.18(a). In such event, on any day prior to the first Trading Day of the applicable Conversion Reference Period, the Company may specify a percentage of the Daily Share Amount that will be settled in cash (the “Cash Percentage”). If the Company elects to specify a Cash Percentage, the amount of cash that the Company will deliver in respect of the Daily Share Amount for each Trading Day in the applicable Conversion Reference Period shall equal the product of: (1) the Cash Percentage, (2) the Daily Share Amount for such Trading Day and (3) the Volume Weighted Average Price per share of Common Stock on such Trading Day. The number of shares that the Company shall deliver in respect of the Daily Share Amount for each Trading Day in the applicable Conversion Reference Period shall be a percentage of the Daily Share Amount equal to 100% minus the Cash Percentage. If the Company does not specify a Cash Percentage by the start of the applicable Conversion Reference Period, the Company shall settle 100% of the Daily Share Amount for each Trading Day in the applicable Conversion Reference Period with shares of Common Stock; provided, however, that the Company shall pay cash in lieu of fractional shares otherwise issuable upon conversion of the Notes in accordance with Section 9.4. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a Designated Event in which the consideration is comprised entirely of cash, the Conversion Value will be calculated based solely on the amount of cash that Holders of Common Stock are entitled to receive in respect of each share of Common Stock upon such Designated Event. In such event, the Company shall pay the Holders in cash, as promptly as practicable but in any event not later than the third Trading Day following the surrender of the Notes for conversion.

(c) The Company shall determine the Conversion Value, Daily Share Amount and the number of shares, if any, to be issued upon conversion of the Notes at the end of the relevant Conversion Reference Period.

(d) For the purposes of Sections 9.18(a) and (b), in the event that any of Conversion Value, Daily Conversion Value, Daily Share Amount, or Volume Weighted Average Price is not calculable for all portions of the Conversion Reference Period, the Company’s Board of Directors shall in good faith determine the values necessary to calculate the Conversion Value, Daily Conversion Value, Daily Share Amount, and Volume Weighted Average Price (which calculations shall be evidenced by an Officers’ Certificate delivered to the Trustee).

ARTICLE X

DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES

SECTION 10.1 Events of Default. “Event of Default,” wherever used herein with respect to the Notes, means any one or more of the following events:

(a) default in the payment of any installment of interest upon any of the Notes as and when the same shall become due and payable, and continuance of such Default for a period of 30 days; or

(b) default in the payment of the principal of any of the Notes as and when the same shall become due and payable either at maturity, upon redemption, required repurchase, by declaration or otherwise (including the failure to purchase Notes in accordance with Articles VI and VIII); or

(c) failure on the part of the Company to perform any other of the covenants or agreements on the part of the Company in the Notes or in this Indenture for a period of 60 days after the date on which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to the Company by the Trustee, or to the Company and the Trustee by the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding; or

(d) default by the Company or any of its Significant Subsidiaries in the payment of principal or premium at final maturity under any instrument or instruments evidencing Indebtedness (other than the Notes), which Default is in an aggregate amount exceeding $10.0 million or its equivalent in any other currency or currencies and continues in effect for more than 30 days after the expiration of any grace period or extension of time for payment applicable thereto; or

(e) default by the Company or any of its Significant Subsidiaries under any instrument or instruments evidencing Indebtedness (other than the Notes) having an outstanding principal amount of $10.0 million (or its equivalent in any other currency or currencies) or more, which results in acceleration of the maturity of such Indebtedness, unless such acceleration has been rescinded within 10 days after the date on which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to the Company by the Trustee, or to the Company and the Trustee by the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding; or

(f) default on the part of the Company in its obligation to convert the Notes upon exercise of a Holder’s conversion right in accordance with the terms of the Notes and Article IX hereof and such conversion Default is not cured or such conversion is not rescinded within 5 days after written notice of Default is given by registered mail to the Company by the Trustee or to the Company and the Trustee by the Holder of such Note; or

(g) default on the part of the Company in its obligation give notice to Holders of their right to require the Company to repurchase Notes following the occurrence of a Designated Event within the time required to give such notice; or

(h) a court of competent jurisdiction shall enter an order for relief with respect to the Company or a Significant Subsidiary under the Bankruptcy Code or a court of competent jurisdiction shall enter a judgment, order or decree adjudging the Company or a Significant Subsidiary a bankrupt or insolvent, or enter an order for relief for reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition of or in respect of the Company under the Bankruptcy Code or applicable state insolvency law and the continuance of any such judgment, order or decree is unstayed and in effect for a period of 60 consecutive days; or

(i) the Company or a Significant Subsidiary shall institute proceedings for entry of an order for relief with respect to the Company or a Significant Subsidiary under the Bankruptcy Code or for an adjudication of insolvency, or shall consent to the institution of bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings against it, or shall file a petition seeking, or seek or consent to reorganization, arrangement, composition or relief under the Bankruptcy Code or any applicable state law, or shall consent to filing of such petition or to the appointment of a receiver, custodian, liquidator, assignee, trustee, sequestrator or similar official (other than a custodian pursuant to 8 Delaware Code § 226 or any similar statute under other state laws) of the Company or of substantially all of its property, or the Company or a Significant Subsidiary shall make a general assignment for the benefit of creditors as recognized under the Bankruptcy Code.

If an Event of Default with respect to the Notes then outstanding occurs and is continuing (other than an Event of Default specified in Section 10.1(h) or Section 10.1(i)), then and in each and every such case, unless the principal of all of the Notes shall have already become due and payable, either the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, by notice in writing to the Company (and to the Trustee if given by Holders), may declare the principal of all the Notes and the interest, if any, accrued thereon to be due and payable immediately, and upon any such declaration the same shall become and shall be immediately due and payable, anything in this Indenture or in the Notes contained to the contrary notwithstanding. This provision, however, is subject to the condition that if at any time after the principal (or such specified amount) of the Notes shall have been so declared due and payable and before any judgment or decree for the payment of the moneys due shall have been obtained or entered as hereinafter provided, the Company shall pay or shall deposit with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay all matured installments of interest, if any, upon all of the Notes and the principal of any and all Notes, which shall have become due otherwise than by acceleration (with interest on overdue installments of interest, if any, to the extent that payment of such interest is enforceable under applicable law and on such principal at the rate borne by the Notes to the date of such payment or deposit) and shall pay the reasonable compensation, disbursements, expenses and advances of the Trustee, and any and all Defaults under this Indenture, other than the nonpayment of principal of and accrued interest, if any on the Notes, which shall have become due solely by reason of the acceleration, shall have been cured or shall have been waived in accordance with this Indenture, then and in every such case the declaration of acceleration shall be automatically annulled and rescinded; but no such rescission and annulment shall extend to or shall affect any subsequent Default, or shall impair any right consequent thereon. If any Event of Default with respect to the Company specified in Section

10.1(h) or 10.1(i) occurs, all unpaid principal and accrued interest, on all Notes then outstanding shall ipso facto become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act by the Trustee or any Holder.

If the Trustee shall have proceeded to enforce any right under this Indenture and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned because of such rescission or annulment or for any other reason or shall have been determined adversely to the Trustee, then and in every such case the Company, the Trustee and the Holders shall be restored respectively to their several positions and rights hereunder, and all rights, remedies and powers of the Company, the Trustee and the Holders shall continue as though no such proceeding had been taken.

In determining whether the Holders of the requisite aggregate principal amount of the Notes outstanding have given any request, demand, authorization or consent under this Indenture, the principal amount of Notes that will be deemed to be outstanding will be the amount of the principal of the Notes that would be due and payable as of the date of the determination upon a declaration of acceleration of the maturity of the Notes.

SECTION 10.2 Payment of Notes on Default; Suit Therefor. The Company covenants that (a) if a Default shall be made in the payment of any installment of interest upon the Notes then outstanding as and when the same shall become due and payable, and such Default shall have continued for a period of 30 days, or (b) if a Default shall be made in the payment of the principal of any of the Notes as and when the same shall have become due and payable, whether at maturity of the Notes or upon redemption or by declaration or otherwise, then, upon demand of the Trustee, the Company will pay to the Trustee, for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes, the whole amount that then shall have become due and payable on all such Notes for principal or interest, if any, or both, as the case may be, with interest upon the overdue principal and (to the extent that payment of such interest is enforceable under applicable law) upon the overdue installments of interest, if any, at the rate borne by the Notes; and, in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable costs and expenses of the Trustee, its agents, attorneys and counsel and any expenses or liabilities incurred by the Trustee hereunder other than through its negligence or bad faith.

If the Company shall fail forthwith to pay such amounts upon such demand, the Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an express trust, shall be entitled and empowered to institute any actions or proceedings at law or in equity for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, and may prosecute any such action or proceeding to judgment or final decree, and may enforce any such judgment or final decree against the Company and collect in the manner provided by law out of the property of the Company, wherever situated, the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable.

If there shall be pending proceedings for the bankruptcy or for the reorganization of the Company under any bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect, or if a receiver or trustee or similar official shall have been appointed for the property of the Company, or in the case of any other similar judicial proceedings relative to the Company, or to the creditors or property of the Company, 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 pursuant to the provisions of this Section 10.2, shall be entitled and empowered by intervention in such proceedings or otherwise to file and prove a claim or claims for the whole amount of principal and interest, if any, owing and unpaid in respect of the Notes, and, in case of any judicial proceedings, to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee and of the Holders allowed in such judicial proceedings relative to the Company, its creditors, or its property, and to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims, and to distribute the same after the deduction of its reasonable expenses, and any receiver, assignee or trustee or similar official in bankruptcy or reorganization is hereby authorized by each of the Holders to make such payments to the Trustee, and, if the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due it pursuant to Section 11.7 hereof for reasonable expenses. To the extent that such payment of reasonable expenses out of the estate in any such proceedings shall be denied for any reason, payment of the same shall be secured by a lien on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, moneys, securities and other property which the Holders of the Notes may be entitled to receive in such proceedings, whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or arrangement or otherwise.

All rights of action and of asserting claims under this Indenture, or under any of the Notes, may be enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Notes, or the production thereof at any trial or other proceeding relative thereto, and any such suit or proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment shall be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the Notes in respect of which such judgment has been recovered.

SECTION 10.3 Application of Moneys Collected by Trustee. Any moneys or property collected by the Trustee pursuant to Section 10.2, or distributable after an Event of Default, with respect to the Notes then outstanding, shall be applied in the order following, at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee for the distribution of such moneys or property, upon presentation of the several Notes, and stamping thereon the payment, if only partially paid, and upon surrender thereof, if fully paid:

FIRST: To the payment of all amounts due to the Trustee pursuant to Section 11.7 except as a result of its negligence or bad faith;

SECOND: If the principal of the outstanding Notes shall not have become due and be unpaid, to the payment of interest on the Notes, in the order of the maturity of the installments of such interest, if any, with interest (to the extent that such interest has been collected by the Trustee) upon the overdue installments of interest, at the rate borne by the Notes, such payment to be made ratably to the Persons entitled thereto;

THIRD: If the principal of the outstanding Notes shall have become due, by declaration or otherwise, to the payment of the whole amount then owing and unpaid upon the Notes for principal and interest, if any, with interest on the overdue principal and (to the extent that such interest has been collected by the Trustee) upon overdue installments of interest, if any, at the rate borne by the Notes; and in case such moneys shall be insufficient to pay in full the whole amounts so due and unpaid upon the Notes, then to the payment of such principal, without

preference or priority of principal over interest or of interest over principal, or of any installment of interest over any other installment of interest, or of any Note over any other Note, ratably to the aggregate of such principal and accrued and unpaid interest; and

FOURTH: To the payment of any surplus then remaining to the Company, its successors or assigns, or as a court of competent jurisdiction shall direct in writing.

SECTION 10.4 Proceedings by Holders. No Holder of any Notes then outstanding shall have any right by virtue of or by availing of any provision of this Indenture to institute any suit, action or proceeding in equity or at law upon or under or with respect to this Indenture or the Notes or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee or similar official, or for any other remedy hereunder or thereunder, unless (i) such Holder previously shall have given to the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default, (ii) the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding shall have made a written request to the Trustee to institute such action, suit or proceeding in its own name as Trustee hereunder and have offered the Trustee indemnity satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense, (iii) the Trustee, after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity, shall have neglected or refused to institute any such action, suit or proceeding for 60 days, and (iv) during such 60-day period the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes do not give the Trustee a direction inconsistent with the request, it being understood and intended, and being expressly covenanted by the Holder of every Note with every other Holder and the Trustee, that no one or more Holders of the Notes shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of or by availing of any provision of this Indenture or of the Notes to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other Holder of such Notes or to obtain or seek to obtain priority over or preference as to any other such Holder, or to enforce any right under this Indenture or the Notes, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal, ratable and common benefit of all Holders of Notes.

Notwithstanding any other provisions in this Indenture, the right of any Holder of any Note to receive payment of the principal of and interest, if any, on such Note, on or after the respective due dates expressed in this Indenture and such Note, to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment or any right to convert on or after such respective dates or to convert its Notes in accordance with the Indenture is absolute and unconditional and shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder.

SECTION 10.5 Proceedings by Trustee. In case of an Event of Default hereunder, the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce the rights vested in it by this Indenture by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall deem necessary to protect and enforce any of such rights, either by suit in equity or by action at law or by proceedings in bankruptcy or otherwise, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement contained in this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted in this Indenture, or to enforce any other legal or equitable right vested in the Trustee by this Indenture or by law.

SECTION 10.6 Remedies Cumulative and Continuing. All powers and remedies given by this Article X to the Trustee or to the Holders shall, to the extent permitted by law, be deemed cumulative and not exclusive of any thereof or of any other powers and remedies available to the Trustee or the Holders, by judicial proceedings or otherwise, to enforce the performance or

observance of the covenants and agreements contained in this Indenture, and no delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder to exercise any right or power accruing upon any Default occurring and continuing as aforesaid shall impair any such right or power, or shall be construed to be a waiver of any such Default or an acquiescence therein; and, subject to the provisions of Section 10.4, every power and remedy given by this Article X or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as shall be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders, respectively.

SECTION 10.7 Direction of Proceedings; Waiver of Defaults by Majority of Holders. Subject to Sections 10.4 and 13.2, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee with respect to the Notes; provided, however, that (subject to the provisions of Section 11.1) the Trustee shall have the right to decline to follow any such direction if the Trustee shall determine upon advice of counsel that the action or proceeding so directed may not lawfully be taken or is in conflict with this Indenture or if the Trustee in good faith by its board of directors, its executive committee, or a trust committee of directors or Responsible Officers or both shall determine that the action or proceeding so directed would involve the Trustee in personal loss, expense and/or liability or would be unduly prejudicial to the rights of the other Holders of the Notes. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes waive any past Default or Event of Default hereunder and its consequences (including acceleration and any related payment Default from such acceleration) except a Default in the payment of interest, if any, on, or the principal of, the Notes or a Default in the compliance with any provision hereunder that cannot be amended or supplemented pursuant to Article XIV without the consent of each Holder of Notes affected. Upon any such waiver the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Notes shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder, respectively; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon. Whenever any Default or Event of Default hereunder shall have been waived as permitted by this Section 10.7, said Default or Event of Default shall for all purposes of the Notes and this Indenture be deemed to have been cured and to be not continuing.

SECTION 10.8 [Intentionally omitted.]

SECTION 10.9 Undertaking to Pay Costs. All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Note by his acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the cost of such suit, and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant; but the provisions of this Section 10.9 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 Notes then outstanding, or to any suit instituted by any Holders for the enforcement of the payment of

the principal of or interest, if any, on any Note against the Company on or after the due date thereto expressed in such Note.

(i) In no event shall the Trustee be responsible or liable for special, indirect, or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, loss of profit) irrespective of whether the Trustee has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.

SECTION 11.3 Individual Rights of Trustee.

Any Paying Agent, Registrar, co-registrar or co-paying agent may do the same with like rights. However, the Trustee must comply with Sections 11.10 and 11.11. In addition, the Trustee shall be permitted to engage in transactions with the Company; provided, however, that if the Trustee acquires any conflicting interest (as such term is defined in Section 310(b) of the TIA) the Trustee must (i) eliminate such conflict within 90 days of acquiring such conflicting interest, (ii) apply to the Commission for permission to continue acting as Trustee or (iii) resign as Trustee hereunder.

The Trustee shall not be responsible for and makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture or the Notes or the Common Stock, it shall not be accountable for the Company’s use of the Notes or the proceeds from the Notes, and it shall not be responsible for any statement of the Company in this Indenture or in any document issued or offering circular (or similar document) used in connection with the sale of the Notes or in the Notes other than the Trustee’s certificate of authentication or for the use or application of any funds received by any Paying Agent other than the Trustee.

SECTION 11.5 Notice of Defaults. If a Default or Event of Default occurs and is continuing and if a Responsible Officer has actual knowledge thereof, the Trustee shall mail to each Holder, as the names and the addresses of such Holders appear upon the Note Register, notice of the Default or Event of Default within 90 days after it occurs, unless such defaults shall have been cured before the giving of such notice (the term “defaults” for the purpose of this Section 11.5 being hereby defined to be the events specified in clauses (a), (b), (c), (d), (e), (f), (g), (h) and (i) of Section 10.1, not including periods of grace, if any, provided for therein and irrespective of the giving of the written notice specified in said clause (c), but in the case of any default of the character specified in said clause (c) no such notice to Holders shall be given until at least 60 days after the giving of written notice thereof to the Company pursuant to said clause (c)). Except in the case of a Default or Event of Default in payment of principal of, or interest on any Note (including payments pursuant to the required repurchase provisions of such Note, if any), the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as its board of directors, a committee of its board of directors or a committee of its Responsible Officers and/or a Responsible Officer in good faith determines that withholding the notice is in the interests of registered Holders.

SECTION 11.6 Reports by Trustee to Holders. Within 60 days after each May 15 beginning with the May 15 following the date of this Indenture, the Trustee shall mail to each Holder a brief report dated as of such May 15 that complies with TIA § 313(a), if and to the extent such report may be required by the TIA. The Trustee also shall comply with TIA § 313(b). The Trustee shall also transmit by mail all reports required by TIA § 313(c).

A copy of each report at the time of its mailing to Holders shall be filed with the Commission and each stock exchange (if any) on which the Notes are listed. The Company agrees to notify promptly the Trustee in writing whenever the Notes become listed on any stock exchange and of any delisting thereof.

SECTION 11.7 Compensation and Indemnity. The Company shall pay to the Trustee from time to time such reasonable compensation for its services as the parties shall agree in writing from time to time. The Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Company shall reimburse the Trustee upon written request for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred or made by it, including, but not limited to, costs of collection, costs of preparing and reviewing reports, certificates and other documents, costs of preparation and mailing of notices to Holders and reasonable costs of counsel retained by the Trustee in connection with the delivery of an Opinion of Counsel or otherwise, in addition to the compensation for its services. Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation and reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee’s agents, counsel, accountants and experts. The Company shall indemnify the Trustee, and each of its officers, directors, counsel and agents, against any and all loss, liability or expense (including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by it in connection with the administration of this trust and the performance of its duties hereunder, including the costs and expenses of enforcing this Indenture (including this Section 11.7) and of defending itself against any claims (whether asserted by any Holder, the Company or otherwise). The Trustee shall notify the Company promptly of any claim of which a Responsible Officer receives written notice for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Trustee to so notify the Company shall not relieve the Company of its obligations hereunder except to the extent the Company is prejudiced thereby. The Company shall defend the claim and the Trustee may have separate counsel and, if the Trustee determines in its reasonable judgment that a conflict of interest exists between the Trustee and the Company, the Company shall pay the fees and expenses of such counsel. The Company need not reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss, liability or expense incurred by the Trustee through the Trustee’s own willful misconduct, negligence or bad faith, subject to the exceptions contained in Section 11.1(c) hereof.

To secure the Company’s payment obligations in this Section 11.7, the Trustee shall have a lien prior to the Notes on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee other than money or property held in trust to pay principal of and interest on particular Notes.

The Company’s payment obligations pursuant to this Section and any lien arising hereunder shall survive the discharge of this Indenture and the resignation or removal of the Trustee. When the Trustee incurs expenses after the occurrence of a Default specified in Section 10.1(g) or (h) with respect to the Company, the expenses are intended to constitute expenses of administration under the Bankruptcy Code.

SECTION 11.8 Replacement of Trustee. The Trustee may resign at any time by so notifying the Company. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes may remove the Trustee by so notifying the Company and the Trustee in writing and the Company may appoint a successor Trustee. The Company shall remove the Trustee if:

(1) the Trustee fails to comply with Section 11.10;

(2) the Trustee is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent;

(3) a receiver or other public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its property; or

(4) the Trustee otherwise becomes incapable of acting.

If the Trustee resigns or is removed by the Company or by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes and the Company does not reasonably promptly appoint a successor Trustee, or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any reason (the Trustee in such event being referred to herein as the retiring Trustee), the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes may appoint a successor Trustee.

A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Company. Thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective, and the successor Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee under this Indenture. The successor Trustee shall mail a notice of its succession to Holders. The retiring Trustee shall promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee, subject to the lien provided for in Section 11.7.

If the Company has not appointed a successor Trustee within 60 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee or the Holders of 10% in principal amount of the Notes may petition, at the expense of the Company, any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

If the Trustee fails to comply with Section 11.10, unless the Trustee’s duty to resign is stayed as provided in TIA § 310(b), any Holder may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee.

Notwithstanding the replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 11.8, the Company’s obligations under Section 11.7 shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee.

SECTION 11.9 Successor Trustee by Merger. If the Trustee consolidates with, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all its corporate trust business or assets to, another corporation or banking association, the resulting, surviving or transferee corporation without any further act shall be the successor Trustee.

In case at the time such successor or successors by merger, conversion or consolidation to the Trustee shall succeed to the trusts created by this Indenture, any of the Notes shall have been authenticated but not delivered, any such successor to the Trustee may adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor trustee, and deliver such Notes so authenticated; and in case at that time any of the Notes shall not have been authenticated, any successor to the Trustee may authenticate such Notes either in the name of any predecessor hereunder or in the name of the successor to the Trustee; and in all such cases such certificates shall have the full force which it is anywhere in the Notes or in this Indenture provided that the certificate of the Trustee shall have.

SECTION 11.10 Eligibility; Disqualification. The Trustee shall at all times satisfy the requirements of TIA § 310(a). The Trustee shall have a combined capital and surplus of at least $50 million as set forth in its most recently filed annual report of condition. The Trustee shall comply with TIA § 310(b).

SECTION 11.11 Preferential Collection of Claims Against Company. If and when the Trustee shall be or become a creditor of the Company, the Trustee shall comply with TIA § 311(a), excluding any creditor relationship listed in TIA § 311(b). A Trustee who has resigned or been removed shall be subject to TIA § 311(a) to the extent indicated.

(8) to make any change that does not adversely affect any outstanding Notes in any material respect.

After an amendment under this Section becomes effective, the Company shall prepare and cause the Trustee to mail to Holders, a notice briefly describing such amendment. The failure to give such notice to all Holders, or any defect therein, shall not impair or affect the validity of an amendment under this Section.

SECTION 13.2 With Consent of Holders. The Company and the Trustee may amend this Indenture or the Notes without notice to any Holder but with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding. However, without the consent of each Note then outstanding, an amendment, supplement or waiver may not:

(2) reduce the rate of accrual of interest or modify the method for calculating interest or change the time for payment of interest on the Notes;

(6) make payments on the Notes payable in currency other than as originally stated in the Notes;

(10) adversely affect the conversion or repurchase provisions of the Notes.

After an amendment under this Section 13.2 becomes effective, the Company shall mail to Holders a notice briefly describing such amendment. The failure to give such notice to all Holders, or any defect therein, shall not impair or affect the validity of an amendment under this Section 13.2.

SECTION 13.3 Compliance with Trust Indenture Act. Every amendment to this Indenture or the Notes shall comply with the TIA as then in effect.

SECTION 13.4 Revocation and Effect of Consents and Waivers.

However, any such Holder or subsequent Holder may revoke the consent or waiver as to such Holder’s Note or portion of the Note if the Trustee receives the notice of revocation before the date the amendment or waiver becomes effective. After an amendment or waiver becomes effective, it shall bind every Holder. An amendment or waiver made pursuant to Section 13.2 shall become effective upon receipt by the Trustee of evidence of the requisite number of written consents.

The Company may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders entitled to give their consent or take any other action described above or required or permitted to be taken pursuant to this Indenture. If a record date is fixed, then notwithstanding the immediately preceding paragraph, those Persons who were Holders at such record date (or their duly designated proxies), and only those Persons, shall be entitled to give such consent or to revoke any consent previously given or to take any such action, whether or not such Persons continue to be Holders after such record date. No such consent shall become valid or effective more than 120 days after such record date.

SECTION 13.5 Notation on or Exchange of Notes. If an amendment changes the terms of a Note, the Trustee may require the Holder of the Note to deliver it to the Trustee. The Trustee may place an appropriate notation on the Note regarding the changed terms and return it to the Holder. Alternatively, if the Company or the Trustee so determines, the Company in exchange for the Note shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a new Note that reflects the changed terms. Failure to make the appropriate notation or to issue a new Note shall not affect the validity of such amendment.

SECTION 13.6 Trustee To Sign Amendments. The Trustee shall sign any amendment authorized pursuant to this Article XIII if the amendment does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee. If it does, the Trustee may but need not sign it. In signing such amendment the Trustee shall be provided with, and (subject to Section 11.1) shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that such amendment is authorized or permitted by this Indenture.

[FORM OF REVERSE SIDE OF NOTE]

1.75% Convertible Senior Notes Due 2015

1. Interest

AAR CORP., a Delaware corporation (such corporation, and its successors and assigns under the Indenture hereinafter referred to, being herein called the “Company”), promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at the rate per annum shown above. The Company will pay interest semiannually on February 1 and August 1 of each year. Interest on the Notes will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid on the Notes or, if no interest has been paid, from February 14, 2013. The Company shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, pay interest on overdue principal and overdue installments of interest, if any (plus interest on such interest to the extent lawful), at the rate borne by the Notes, which interest shall be payable upon demand. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

2. Method of Payment

By no later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the date on which any principal of or interest on any Note is due and payable, the Company shall irrevocably deposit with the Trustee or the Paying Agent money sufficient to pay such principal and/or interest. The Company will pay interest (except Defaulted Interest) on the principal amount of the Notes on each February 1 and August 1 to the Persons who are registered Holders of Notes at the close of business on the January 15 and July 15 next preceding the Interest Payment Date even if Notes are canceled or repurchased after the Record Date and on or before the Interest Payment Date. Holders must surrender Notes to a Paying Agent to collect principal payments. The Company will pay principal and interest in money of the United States that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts. The Company will make all payments in respect of a Definitive Note (including principal and interest) in U.S. dollars at the office of the Trustee. At the Company’s option, however, the Company may make such payments by mailing a check to the registered address of each Holder thereof as such address shall appear on the Note Register or, with respect to Notes represented by a Global Note, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by the Depositary.

3. Paying Agent, Conversion Agent and Registrar

Initially, U.S. Bank National Association (“Trustee”) will act as Paying Agent, Conversion Agent and Registrar. The Company may appoint and change any Paying Agent, Conversion Agent, Registrar or co-registrar without notice to any Holder. The Company or any of its domestically incorporated Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent, Conversion Agent, Registrar or co-registrar.

4. Indenture

The Company issued the Notes under an Indenture dated as of February 14, 2013 (as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof, the “Indenture”), among the Company and the Trustee. The terms of the Notes include those stated

A-2

in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 (15 U.S.C. §§ 77aaa-77bbbb) as in effect from time to time (the “Act”). Capitalized terms used herein and not defined herein have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Indenture. The Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and the Act for a statement of those terms. To the extent permitted by applicable law, in the event of any inconsistency between the terms of this Note and the terms of the Indenture, the terms of the Indenture shall control.

The Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Company limited to $30,000,000 aggregate principal amount.

5. Redemption at the Option of the Company

No sinking fund is provided for the Notes. The Notes are redeemable for cash in whole, or in part, at any time (i) from the date of issuance to February 1, 2014 in the event of a Change of Control and (ii) from February 1, 2014 to February 1, 2015 (regardless of whether a Change of Control has occurred). In each case, the redemption shall be at the option of the Company and the redemption price (the “Redemption Price”) shall be computed to result in a yield of 3.75% from the date of issuance to the date immediately prior to the Redemption Date (which 3.75% yield shall include interest paid, and accrued but unpaid, as of the date immediately prior the Redemption Date) such that the Redemption Price (inclusive of paid, and accrued but unpaid, interest) shall be 101.945% of the principal of the Note if the Redemption Date is February 1, 2014 and 104.038% of the principal of the Note if the Redemption Date is February 1, 2015.

6. Notice of Redemption at the Option of the Company

Notice of redemption at the option of the Company shall be mailed at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before a Redemption Date to the Trustee, the Paying Agent and each Holder of Notes to be redeemed at the Holder’s registered address. If money sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of all Notes (or portions thereof) to be redeemed on the Redemption Date is deposited with the Paying Agent prior to or on the Redemption Date, on and after the Redemption Date, interest, if any, shall cease to accrue on such Notes or portions thereof. Notes in denominations larger than $1,000 principal amount may be redeemed in part but only in integral multiples of $1,000 principal amount.

7. Purchase by the Company at the Option of the Holder Upon a Designated Event

If a Designated Event shall occur, each Holder shall have the right, at such Holder’s option and subject to the terms and conditions of the Indenture, to require the Company 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 an integral multiple of $1,000 on the day that is 45 days after the date of the Company Notice of the occurrence of the Designated Event (subject to extension to comply with applicable law) for a Designated Event Purchase Price equal to 100% of the principal amount of Notes purchased plus accrued and unpaid interest to but not including the Designated Event Purchase Date, which Designated Event Purchase Price shall be paid in cash.

A-3

Holders have the right to withdraw any Designated Event Purchase Notice, as the case may be, by delivery to the Paying Agent of a written notice of withdrawal in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture.

8. Conversion

Subject to the procedures set forth in the Indenture, a Holder may convert Notes on or before the close of business on January 31, 2015 during the periods and upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth in the Indenture.

Notes in respect of which a Holder has delivered a notice of exercise of the option to require the Company to purchase such Notes pursuant to Article VI of the Indenture may be converted only if the notice of exercise is withdrawn in accordance with the terms of the Indenture.

The initial Conversion Rate is 35.0777 shares of Common Stock per $1,000 Note. A Holder may convert a portion of the principal amount of Notes if the portion is $1,000 or a multiple of $1,000, subject to adjustment in certain events described in the Indenture. Upon conversion of the Notes, the Company shall deliver the amount of cash and the number of shares of Common Stock, if any, determined pursuant to Section 9.18 of the Indenture.

To convert the Notes a Holder must (1) complete and manually sign the irrevocable conversion notice on the back of the Notes (or complete and manually sign a facsimile of such notice) and deliver such notice to the Conversion Agent at the office maintained by the Conversion Agent for such purpose, (2) surrender the Notes to the Conversion Agent, (3) furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents if required by the Conversion Agent, the Company or the Trustee and (4) pay any transfer or similar tax, if required.

9. Denominations; Transfer; Exchange

The Notes are in registered form without coupons in denominations of principal amount of $1,000 and whole multiples of $1,000. A Holder may transfer or exchange Notes in accordance with the Indenture. The Registrar may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements or transfer documents and to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Registrar need not register the transfer of or exchange any Notes (A) for a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before any selection of Notes for redemption or repurchase and ending at the close of business on the day notice of such redemption or repurchase is deemed to have been given to all Holders of Notes to be so redeemed or repurchased or (B) selected for redemption or repurchase in whole or in part, except for the transfer of the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part.

10. Persons Deemed Owners

The registered Holder of this Note may be treated as the owner of this Note for all purposes.

A-4

11. Unclaimed Money

If money for the payment of the principal of, or interest on the Note remains unclaimed for two years, the Trustee or Paying Agent shall pay the money back to the Company at its written request unless an abandoned property law designates another Person. After any such payment, Holders entitled to the money must look only to the Company and not to the Trustee for payment.

12. Amendment, Waiver

Subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Indenture, (i) the Indenture and the Notes may be amended with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, Notes) and (ii) any default (other than with respect to nonpayment) or noncompliance with any provision may be waived with the written consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, Notes). Subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Indenture, without the consent of any Holder, the Company and the Trustee may amend the Indenture or the Notes.

13. Defaulted Interest

Except as otherwise specified with respect to the Notes, any Defaulted Interest on any Note shall forthwith cease to be payable to the registered Holder thereof on the relevant Record Date or accrual date, as the case may be, by virtue of having been such Holder, and such Defaulted Interest may be paid by the Company as provided for in Section 2.11 of the Indenture.

14. No Recourse Against Others

No recourse for the payment of the principal of or interest on this Note and no recourse under or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement of the Company in the Indenture, this Note or in any supplemental indenture, or because of the creation of any Indebtedness represented thereby, shall be had against any incorporator, stockholder, employee, agent, officer, director, or subsidiary, past, present or future, of the Company or of any successor corporation or entity, whether by virtue of any constitution, statute or rule of law, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise, it being understood that all such liability is hereby waived and released as a condition to, and as a consideration for, the execution and delivery of the Indenture and the issue of this Note.

15. Authentication

This Note shall not be valid until an authorized signatory of the Trustee (or an authenticating agent acting on its behalf) manually signs the certificate of authentication on the other side of this Note.

16. Abbreviations

Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Holder or an assignee, such as TEN COM (=tenants in common), TEN ENT (=tenants by the entirety), JT TEN (=joint tenants

17. CUSIP Numbers
