ARTICLE I
AMENDMENTS OF INDENTURE
Section 1.01 Effect. The amendments set forth in this Article I shall apply only in respect of the Notes created pursuant to the Indenture and the Officers Certificate.
Section 1.02 Amendments.
(a) Subject to Section 1.01 hereof, the covenant applicable to the Notes as set forth in Paragraph 19(b) of the Officers Certificate is hereby amended and restated as follows:
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein if, at any time (the Triggering Event), the aggregate number of Common Shares then issued upon conversion of the Notes (including any shares of capital stock or rights to acquire shares of capital stock issued by the Company which are aggregated or integrated with the Common Shares issued or issuable upon conversion of the Notes for purposes of such rule) equals 19.99% of the Outstanding Common Amount (as hereinafter defined), the Notes (1) shall, from that time forward, cease to be convertible into Common Shares in accordance with the terms of Paragraph 19(a) above, unless the Company has obtained approval (Shareholder Approval) of the issuance of the Common Shares upon conversion of the Notes by a majority of the total votes cast on such proposal, in person or by proxy, by the holders of the then outstanding Common Shares (not including (x) any Common Shares held by present or former holders of Notes that were issued upon conversion of Notes or (y) any shares of capital stock or rights to acquire shares of capital stock issued by the Company that are held by present or former holders of such shares of capital stock or rights to acquire shares of capital stock which are aggregated or integrated with the Common Shares issued or issuable upon conversion of the Notes for purposes of Rule 4350(i) of the Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc. (Nasdaq)), and (2) shall, from that time forward, be convertible into such Holders pro rata share of the Maximum Share Amount (as hereinafter defined). If the Triggering Event occurs, the Company shall promptly seek Shareholder Approval. For purposes of this paragraph, Outstanding Common Amount means (i) the number of Common Shares outstanding on the date immediately prior to the earliest date of issuance of the Notes or any shares of capital stock or rights to acquire shares of capital stock issued by the Company which are aggregated or integrated with the Common Shares issued or issuable upon conversion of the Notes for purposes of such rule plus (ii) any additional shares of Common Shares issued thereafter in respect of such shares pursuant to a stock dividend, stock split or similar event. The maximum number of Common Shares issuable as a result of the 19.99% limitation set forth herein is hereinafter referred to as the Maximum Share Amount. With respect to each Holder of Notes, the Maximum Share Amount shall refer to such Holders pro rata share thereof based on the principal amount of Notes then held by such Holder relative to the total aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding plus the value of any shares of capital stock or rights to acquire shares of capital stock issued by the Company which are aggregated or integrated with the Common Shares issued or issuable upon conversion of the Notes for purposes of Rule 4350(i). In the event that the Company obtains Shareholder Approval, the number of shares that the Notes convert into will be as set forth in paragraph 19(a) above (such increased number being the New Maximum Share Amount) and the references to Maximum Share Amount, above, shall be deemed to be, instead, references to the greater New Maximum Share Amount. In the event that Shareholder Approval is not obtained, the Maximum Share Amount shall remain unchanged.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein if, at any time (the Triggering Event), the aggregate number of Common Shares then issued upon conversion of the Securities (including any shares of capital stock or rights to acquire shares of capital stock issued by the Company which are aggregated or integrated with the Common Shares issued or issuable upon conversion of the Securities for purposes of such rule) equals 19.99% of the Outstanding Common Amount (as hereinafter defined), the Securities (1) shall, from that time forward, cease to be convertible into Common Shares in accordance with the terms of the prior paragraph above, unless the Company has obtained approval (Shareholder Approval) of the issuance of the Common Shares upon conversion of the Securities by a majority of the total votes cast on such proposal, in person or by proxy, by the holders of the then outstanding Common Shares (not including (x) any Common Shares held by present or former holders of Securities that were issued upon conversion of Securities or (y) any shares of capital stock or rights to acquire shares of capital stock issued by the Company that are held by present or former holders of such shares of capital stock or rights to acquire shares of capital stock which are aggregated or integrated with the Common Shares issued or issuable upon conversion of the Securities for purposes of Rule 4350(i) of the Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc. (Nasdaq)), and (2) shall, from that time forward, be convertible into such Holders pro rata share of the Maximum Share Amount (as hereinafter defined). If the Triggering Event occurs, the Company shall promptly seek Shareholder Approval. For purposes of this paragraph, Outstanding Common Amount means (i) the number of Common Shares outstanding on the date immediately prior to the earliest date of issuance of the Securities or any shares of capital stock or rights to acquire shares of capital stock issued by the Company which are aggregated or integrated with the Common Shares issued or issuable upon conversion of the Securities for purposes of such rule plus (ii) any additional shares of Common Shares issued thereafter in respect of such shares pursuant to a stock dividend, stock split or similar event.
