Repurchase at Option of Holder Upon a Repurchase Event. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Indenture, in the event of a Repurchase Event, then each Holder of the Securities shall have the right, at the Holders option to require the Company to repurchase such Holders Securities including any portion thereof which is $1,000 in principal amount or any integral multiple thereof on a date (the Repurchase Date) no later than 30 days after the date on which notice of such Repurchase Event is mailed in accordance with the immediately succeeding paragraph, at a price equal to 100% of the outstanding principal amount of the Securities tendered, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the Repurchase Date. A Repurchase Event of the Company shall be deemed to have occurred upon the occurrence of either a Change in Control or a Termination of Trading. A Change in Control of the Company shall be deemed to have occurred at such time as:
A Termination of Trading shall occur if the Common Stock of the Company (or other common stock into which the Securities are then convertible) is neither listed for trading on a U.S. national securities exchange nor approved for trading on an established automated over-the-counter trading market in the United States. 10. Conversion. A holder may convert his or her Security into Common Stock of the Company at any time prior to the close of business on June 15, 2013, or if the Security is called for redemption by the Company, the Holder may convert it at any time before the close of business on the business day immediately preceding the date fixed for such redemption. A Holder shall not have the right to convert any portion of the Securities to the extent that after giving effect to such conversion the Holder (together with the Holder's Affiliates) would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such conversion. The initial Conversion Rate is 50.0000 shares of Common Stock per $1,000 principal amount of Securities, or an effective initial Conversion Price of $20.00 per share, subject to adjustment as specified in the Indenture. The Company will deliver a check in lieu of any fractional share. On conversion no payment or adjustment for any unpaid and accrued interest with respect to the Securities will be made. If a Holder surrenders a Security for conversion between the record date for the payment of interest and prior to the next interest payment date, such Security, when surrendered for conversion, must be accompanied by payment of an amount equal to the interest thereon which the registered Holder on such record date is to receive, unless the Securities have been called for redemption as described in the Indenture. Securities as to which a Purchase Notice has been given may be converted only if the applicable Purchase Notice has been withdrawn in accordance with the terms of this Indenture. To convert a Security, a Holder must (1) complete and sign the Conversion Notice, with appropriate signature guarantee, on the back of the Security, (2) surrender the Security to a Conversion Agent, (3) furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents if required by the Registrar or Conversion Agent, (4) pay the amount of interest, if any, the Holder may be paid as provided in the last sentence of the above paragraph and (5) pay any transfer or similar tax if required. A Holder may convert a portion of a Security if the portion is $1,000 principal amount or an integral multiple of $1,000 principal amount. Any shares issued upon conversion of a Security shall bear the Private Placement Legend until after the second anniversary of the later of the Issue Date and the last date on which the Company or any Affiliate of the Company was the owner of such shares or the Security (or any predecessor security) from which such shares were converted (or such shorter period of time as permitted by Rule 144(k) under the Securities Act or any successor provision thereunder) (or such longer period of time as may be required under the Securities Act or applicable state securities laws in the opinion of counsel for the Company, unless otherwise agreed by the Company and the Holder thereof). 11. Subordination. The Securities are subordinated in right of payment, in the manner and to the extent set forth in the Indenture, to the prior payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness. Each Holder by accepting a Security agrees to such subordination and authorizes the Trustee to give it effect. 12. Denominations, Transfer, Exchange. The Securities are in registered form without coupons in denominations of $1,000 principal amount and integral multiples of $1,000 principal amount. The transfer of Securities may be registered and Securities may be exchanged as provided in the Indenture. The Registrar may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents. No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith. The Registrar need not exchange or register the transfer of any Security selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of Securities to be redeemed in part. Also, it need not exchange or register the transfer of any Securities for a period of 15 days before the mailing of a notice of redemption of the Securities selected to be redeemed and in certain other circumstances provided in the Indenture. 13. Persons Deemed Owners. The registered Holder of a Security may be treated as the owner of such Security for all purposes. 14. Merger or Consolidation. The Company shall not consolidate with or merge with or into any other person or sell, convey, transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of its properties and assets substantially as an entirety to another person (whether in a single or series of related transactions) unless (i) such other person is a corporation organized under the laws of the United States, any State thereof or the District of Columbia; (ii) such person assumes by supplemental indenture all the obligations of the Company, under the Securities and this Indenture; and (iii) immediately after giving effect to the transaction, no Default or Event of Default shall exist. 15. Amendments, Supplements and Waivers. Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture or the Securities may be amended or supplemented with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding, and any existing Default or Event of Default may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding. In accordance with the terms of the Indenture, without notice to or the consent of any Securityholder, the Indenture or the Securities may be amended or supplemented to cure any ambiguity, defect, omission or inconsistency, to comply with Sections 5.01 and 10.12 of the Indenture, to make any changes or modifications to the Indenture necessary in connection with the registration of the Securities under the Securities Act pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreements and the qualification of the Indenture under the TIA, to secure the obligations of the Company in respect of the Securities, or to add to covenants of the Company described in the Indenture for the benefit of Securityholders or to surrender any right or power conferred upon the Company or to make provisions with respect to adjustments to the Conversion Rate as required by the Indenture or to increase the Conversion Rate in accordance with the Indenture. 16. Defaults and Remedies. As more fully described in the Indenture, an Event of Default includes the occurrence of any of the following: default in payment of principal, when due, whether at maturity, upon redemption, upon exercise by the Holder of its right to require the Company to repurchase Securities on the Option Purchase Date, upon exercise of a Repurchase Right or otherwise; default for 30 days in payment of interest or liquidated damages; failure to provide timely notice of a Repurchase Event or Repurchase at Holders Option, as required; failure by the Company for 30 days after notice to it to comply with any of its other agreements in the Indenture or the Securities; certain payment defaults or the acceleration of other Indebtedness of the Company and its Subsidiaries; failure by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to pay final judgments for certain amounts, which judgments are not paid, discharged, or stayed, for a period of 30 days; and certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency involving the Company or its Subsidiaries. If any Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding may declare all the Securities to be due and payable immediately, except as provided in the Indenture. If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(vii) or (viii) of the Indenture with respect to the Company occurs, the principal of and accrued interest on all the Securities shall ipso facto become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Securityholder. Securityholders may not enforce the Indenture or the Securities except as provided in the Indenture. The Trustee may require indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it before it enforces the Indenture or the Securities. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities then outstanding may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Securityholders notice of any continuing Default or Event of Default (except a Default or Event of Default in payment) if it determines that withholding notice is in the interests of the Securityholders. The Company must furnish an annual compliance certificate to the Trustee. 17. Registration Rights. The Holders are entitled to registration rights as set forth in the Registration Rights Agreements (as defined in the Indenture). The Holders shall be entitled to receive liquidated damages in certain circumstances, all as set forth in the Registration Rights Agreements. 18. Trustee Dealings with the Company. The Trustee under the Indenture, or any banking institution serving as successor Trustee thereunder, in its individual or any other capacity, may make loans to, accept deposits from, and perform services for the Company or its Affiliates, and may otherwise deal with the Company or its Affiliates, as if it were not Trustee. 19. No Recourse Against Others. No past, present or future director, officer, employee or stockholder, as such, of the Company shall have any liability for any obligations of the Company under the Securities or the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations or their creation. Each Securityholder by accepting a Security waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issue of the Securities. 20. Authentication. This Security shall not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of the Trustee or an authenticating agent. 21. Abbreviations. Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Securityholder or an assignee, such as: TEN COM (= tenants in common), TEN ENT (= tenants by the entirety), JT TEN (= joint tenants with right of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (= Custodian), and U/G/M/A (Uniform Gifts to Minors Act).

Ladies and Gentlemen: Reference is made to the Securities issued pursuant to a certain indenture dated as of June 11, 2003, as supplemented by the first supplemental indenture thereto (collectively, the Indenture) by and between the Company and American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as trustee (the Trustee). The Company issued $37,000,000 aggregate principal amount of Securities pursuant to the Indenture in transactions exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act). The Company has filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) a registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-____) (the Registration Statement) relating to the registration under the Securities Act of $______________ principal amount of the Securities and the shares of Common Stock of the Company (the Shares) issuable upon conversion of the Securities being registered. The Registration Statement was declared effective by order of the SEC dated [_____________]. We have acted as counsel for the Company in connection with the issuance of the Securities and the preparation and filing of the Registration Statement and are familiar with the Securities, the Indenture, the Registration Statement, the above-mentioned SEC order and such other documents as are necessary to render this opinion. Based on the foregoing, it is our opinion that (1) the Registration Statement has become effective under the Securities Act and, to our knowledge, no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has been issued, (2) assuming that the Securities covered by the Registration Statement and the Shares issuable upon conversion of such Securities are sold by a Holder specified in the Registration Statement in a manner specified in the Registration Statement, such sale of the Securities and Shares issuable upon conversion of the Securities will have been duly registered under the Securities Act and (3) the Indenture has been duly qualified under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended. Yours truly, |
