shares of its Common Shares or (D) issue any shares of its Capital Stock in a reclassification of the Common Shares (including any such reclassification in connection with a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the continuing corporation), or (E) repay or reduce its capital or otherwise adjust the nominal value of its Shares, then in each such case, the Conversion Price in effect at the time of the record date for such dividend or of the effective date of such subdivision, combination or reclassification shall be adjusted so that the Holder of this Note upon conversion after such date shall be entitled to receive the aggregate number and kind of shares of its Capital Stock which, if this Note had been converted immediately prior to such date, such holder would have owned upon such conversion and been entitled to receive by virtue of such dividend, subdivision, combination or reclassification. Any such adjustment shall become effective immediately after the record date of such dividend or the effective date of such subdivision, combination or reclassification. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever any event listed above shall occur. If a dividend on the Common Shares, or capitalization of profits or reserves, payable in shares of its Capital Stock (including Common Shares) is declared and such dividend is not paid, the Conversion Price shall again be adjusted to be the Conversion Price, in effect immediately prior to such record date (giving effect to all adjustments that otherwise would be required to be made pursuant to this Section 2 from and after such record date).
3. Rights Upon Major Transaction. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the provisions of this Section 3 shall not apply prior to the issuance of the Parent Convertible Notes (as defined in the Facility Agreement). In the event that a Major Transaction occurs, then the Holder, at its option, may (i) require the Company to repay all or a portion of the principal amount outstanding on the Holders Notes plus all accrued and unpaid Interest thereon, in accordance with Section 5.3 of the Facility Agreement or (ii) convert all or a portion of the principal amount outstanding in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3 (a Major Transaction Conversion) and cause the Company to pay to the Holder all accrued and unpaid Interest under this Note. The Holder shall have the right to waive its rights under this Section 3 with respect to such Major Transaction.
(a) Major Transaction Conversion. In the event that a Major Transaction occurs, then (1) in the case of a transaction covered by the provisions of clause (A) of the definition of Major Transaction, in which the Common Shares of the Company are converted into the right to receive cash, securities of another entity and/or other assets (a Successor Major Transaction), the Holder, at its option, may convert, in whole or in part, the outstanding principal amount under this Note into the right to receive upon consummation of the Major Transaction, the amount of cash and other assets and the number of securities or other property of the Successor Entity or other entity that the Holder would have received had such Holder converted the Major Transaction Conversion Amount (as defined below) into Base Conversion Shares and Additional Conversion Shares (as defined below and without regard to the 9.985% Cap) immediately prior to the consummation of such Major Transaction (the Successor Consideration) and (2) in the case of any other Major Transactions not covered under clause (1) above (a Company Share Major Transaction), the Holder shall have the right to convert, in whole or in part, and from time to time, the outstanding principal amount under this Note into Base Conversion Shares and Additional Conversion Shares (Major Transaction Company Shares).
13
(b) Base Conversion Shares and Additional Conversion Shares. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to any conversion or deemed conversion effected in connection with a Major Transaction pursuant to this Section 3, the aggregate total number of Major Transaction Company Shares into which all or any portion of the principal amount of this Note may be converted or, the aggregate number of conversion shares to be used for calculating the Successor Consideration, as applicable, shall be calculated to be the sum of (a) the number of Common Shares into which the principal amount of this Note then being converted would otherwise be converted as calculated under Section 2 hereof (such number of shares, the Base Conversion Shares), plus (b) the number of Common Shares equal to the product of (x) the Additional Share Coefficient (as such term is defined and determined for each $1,000 of principal amount of this Note on Schedule I attached hereto and made a part hereof) for such Major Transaction and (y) a fraction the numerator of which is the amount of the principal amount of this Note then being converted and the denominator of which is $1,000 (such number of Common Shares calculated in accordance with this clause (b), the Additional Conversion Shares).
(c) Notice; Major Transaction Conversion Election. At least thirty (30) days prior to the consummation of any Major Transaction (other than a transaction described in clause (C) of the definition of Major Transaction), but, in any event, within five (5) Business Days following the first to occur of (x) the date of the public announcement of such Major Transaction if such announcement is made before 4:00 p.m., New York City time, or (y) the day following the public announcement of such Major Transaction if such announcement is made on and after 4:00 p.m., New York City time, the Company shall deliver written notice thereof via (i) facsimile or electronic mail and (ii) overnight courier to the Holder (a Major Transaction Notice). At any time during the Major Transaction Conversion Period, the Holder may elect to effect a Major Transaction Conversion by delivering written notice thereof (Major Transaction Conversion Notice) to the Company, which Major Transaction Conversion Notice shall indicate the portion of the Note (the Major Transaction Conversion Amount), calculated with reference to the principal amount outstanding that the Holder is electing to treat as a Major Transaction Conversion. For the avoidance of doubt, the Holder shall be permitted to make successive conversions and send successive Major Transaction Conversion Notices in respect of a Company Share Major Transaction from time to time at any time during the Major Transaction Conversion Period; provided that the Company will not be required to issue Conversion Shares with respect to a Major Transaction Conversion Notice with respect to less than the lesser of (i) $1,000,000 principal amount of this Note and (ii) the principal amount outstanding under the Note.
(d) Settlement of Major Transaction Conversion. Following the receipt of a Major Transaction Conversion Notice from the Holder, the Company shall not effect a Successor Major Transaction that is being treated as a Major Transaction Conversion unless at the time of the execution of the definitive documentation relating to such Major Transaction it obtains the written agreement of the Successor Entity that payment or issuance of the Successor Consideration plus accrued and unpaid interest through the date of payment, shall be made to the Holder prior to consummation of such Major Transaction and such payment or issuance, as the case may be, shall be a condition precedent to consummation of such Major Transaction. Concurrently upon closing of such Successor Major Transaction, the Company shall pay or
14
issue, as the case may be, or shall instruct any escrow agent for the transaction to pay or issue, and will cause the Successor Entity to issue and/or pay, the applicable Successor Consideration, plus accrued and unpaid interest through the date of payment. Any Major Transaction Company Shares issuable in respect of a Company Share Major Transaction shall be issued to the Holder within three (3) Trading Days following the date of each Major Transaction Conversion Notice.
(e) Damages. Following the receipt of a Major Transaction Conversion Notice from the Holder, in the event that the Company attempts to consummate a Successor Major Transaction without obtaining the written agreement of the Successor Entity described in subsection (d) above, the Holder shall have the right to apply for an injunction in any state or federal courts sitting in the City of New York, borough of Manhattan to prevent the closing of such Major Transaction until the Successor Consideration is satisfied to the Holder in full.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein and without derogating any obligations or rights herein, until the Holder receives its appropriate payment or securities, plus any accrued and unpaid interest under this Note, in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3, this Note may be converted, in whole or in part, by the Holder into Shares, or in the event that such payments and/or shares have not been delivered prior to the consummation of the Successor Major Transaction in which the Company is not the surviving parent entity, Common Shares (or their equivalent) of the Successor Entity at an appropriate conversion price based upon the prevailing Conversion Rate (as adjusted hereunder) at the time of such Major Transaction and price per share or conversion ratio received by holders of Common Shares in the Major Transaction.
4. Registration Failures. Upon any Registration Failure, in addition to all other available remedies that the Holder may pursue hereunder and under the Facility Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement and this Note, the Company shall pay additional damages to the Holder for each 30-day period (prorated for any partial period) after the date of such Registration Failure in an amount in cash equal to one and one-half percent (1.5%) of such Holders original principal amount of this Note on the date of such Registration Failure. Such payments shall accrue until the earlier of (i) such time as the Registration Failure has been cured and (ii) the date on which all of the Conversion Shares may be sold without restriction under Rule 144 (including, without limitation, volume restrictions and without the need for the availability of current public information under Rule 144). All such payments that accrue under this Section 4 shall be payable no later than five (5) business days following such date of accrual.
5. Voting Rights. Except as required by law, the Holder shall have no voting rights with respect to any of the Conversion Shares until delivery of the Conversion Notice relating to the conversion of this Note upon which such Conversion Shares are issuable.
6. Participation. The Holder, as the holder of this Note, shall be entitled to receive such dividends paid and distributions of any kind made to the holders of Common Shares to the same extent as if the Holder had converted this Note into Common Shares (without regard to any limitations on exercise herein or elsewhere and without regard to whether or not a sufficient number of shares are authorized and reserved to effect any such exercise and issuance)
15
and had held such Common Shares on the record date for such dividends and distributions. Payments under the preceding sentence shall be made concurrently with the dividend or distribution to the holders of Common Shares.
7. Certain Provisions Related to Common Shares Issued Hereunder.
(a) Sufficient Common Shares. The Company shall provide, free from preemptive rights, out of the Companys authorized but unissued shares or shares held in treasury, sufficient Common Shares to provide for conversion of the Notes held by the Holder from time to time as such Notes are presented for conversion (assuming that at the time of computation of such number of Common Shares, all such Notes would be converted by the Holder into Conversion Shares (without regard to the 9.985% Cap)).
(b) Fully-Paid. The Company covenants that all Common Shares issued upon conversion of Notes held by the Holder will be fully paid by the Company and free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issue thereof.
8. Amendment; Waiver. The terms and provisions of this Note shall not be amended or waived except in a writing signed by the Company and the Required Note Holders.
9. Remedies, Characterizations, Other Obligations, Breaches and Injunctive Relief. The remedies provided in this Note shall be cumulative and in addition to all other remedies available under this Note, the Facility Agreement, at law or in equity (including a decree of specific performance and/or other injunctive relief). No remedy contained herein shall be deemed a waiver of compliance with the provisions giving rise to such remedy, and nothing herein shall limit the Holders right to pursue actual damages for any failure by the Company to comply with the terms of this Note. The Company covenants to the Holder that there shall be no characterization concerning this instrument other than as expressly provided herein. The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to the Holder and that the remedy at law for any such breach may be inadequate. The Company therefore agrees that, in the event of any such breach or threatened breach, the Holder shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to an injunction restraining any breach, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required.
10. Specific Shall Not Limit General; Construction. No specific provision contained in this Note shall limit or modify any more general provision contained herein. This Note shall be deemed to be jointly drafted by the Company and all purchasers of Notes pursuant to the Facility Agreement and shall not be construed against any Person as the drafter hereof.
11. Failure or Indulgence Not Waiver. No failure or delay on the part of the Holder in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other right, power or privilege.
16
12. Notices. Whenever notice is required to be given under this Note, unless otherwise provided herein, such notice shall be given in accordance with Section 6.2 of the Facility Agreement.
13. Restrictions on Transfer.

14. Obligations of the Company.

Schedule 1
The Additional Share Coefficient shall mean the number of additional Common Shares issuable per $1,000 of principal amount of the Note upon a Major Transaction and shall be the additional share number set forth on the chart with respect to the Share Price Result on the y axis and the corresponding Remaining Note Life on the x axis; provided, however, that to the extent the actual Share Price Result (as defined below) falls between two data points on the y axis and/or the actual date of the Major Transaction falls between two data points on the x axis, the Additional Share Coefficient shall be determined by calculating the arithmetic mean between (i) the result obtained for the Share Price Result based on the linear interpolation between the additional share numbers corresponding to the two Share Price Result data points and (ii) the result obtained for the Remaining Note Life based on the linear interpolation between the two additional share numbers corresponding to the two Remaining Note Life data points; and provided further, however, that in the event of any adjustment to the Conversion Price pursuant to Section 2 of this Note, the numbers of additional Common Shares issuable per $1,000 of principal amount of this Note as set forth in the chart below shall be deemed adjusted pro rata with any adjustment resulting from the adjustment to the Conversion Price that would be made to the number of Common Shares then convertible with respect to $1,000 of principal amount of this Note as calculated under Section 2 of this Note. For purposes of the chart below, the Share Price Result shall be the greater of: (i) the last sales price of Common Shares on NASDAQ, or, if that is not the principal trading market for Common Shares, such principal market on which Common Shares are traded or listed (the Closing Market Price) immediately prior to the consummation of the Major Transaction or (ii) in the case of a Major Transaction in which holders of Common Shares receive solely cash consideration in connection with such major Transaction, the cash amount payable per share of Common Stock in such Major Transaction. If the actual Share Price Result is greater than $60 per share (subject to adjustment in the same manner as the Conversion Price as provided in Section 2 of this Note), or if the actual Shares Price Result is less than $5.00 per share (subject to adjustment in the same manner as the Conversion Price as provided in Section 2 of this Note), then the Additional Share Coefficient shall be equal to the amount applicable to $60 and $5, respectively.
