REDEMPTION AND PREPAYMENT
Section 3.01. Redemption.
(a) If Holder has elected to exercise the option to redeem all or any portion of the CCI Notes by Holder pursuant to Section 3.07 of the Indenture, Obligor shall, on the date of such redemption, redeem a portion of this Mirror Note equal to 100% of the aggregate principal amount of the CCI Notes being so redeemed. Such redemption shall be for a redemption price (the "Mirror Redemption Price") equal to the aggregate CCI Redemption Price being paid by Holder, plus, subject to Section 3.02, interest accrued on the portion of this Mirror Note being redeemed to but excluding the applicable CCI Redemption Date. In addition, in the event that Holder is required to pay any CCI Redemption Make Whole Amount, Obligor shall pay to Holder on such Mirror Redemption Date an amount equal to such CCI Redemption Make Whole Amount.
(b) If and to the extent, as a result of the conversion of the CCI Notes for which notice of redemption was given, Holder, rather than paying CCI Redemption Price
(including any CCI Redemption Make Whole Amount payable in respect thereof) in cash, issues shares of Common Stock to the holders of the subject CCI Notes (including, if applicable, in payment of the CCI Redemption Make Whole Amount), Obligor shall on the related Mirror Redemption Date issue Membership Units to Holder in a number equal to the number of shares of Common Stock so issued by Holder to holders of the CCI Notes, in lieu of all or the applicable portion of the cash payment otherwise payable on such Mirror Redemption Date in respect of this Mirror Note, as described in paragraph (a) of this Section 3.01.
Section 3.02. Payment of Mirror Redemption Price.
At or prior to 9:30 a.m., New York City time on the Mirror Redemption Date, Obligor shall pay to Holder the Mirror Redemption Price in respect of the portion of this Mirror Note being redeemed on such Mirror Redemption Date.
If Obligor complies with the provisions of the preceding paragraph, on and after the Mirror Redemption Date, interest shall cease to accrue on the portion of the Principal Amount of this Mirror Note redeemed. If any of the CCI Notes are redeemed on or after a Regular Record Date under the Indenture but on or prior to the related Mirror Interest Payment Date, and any accrued and unpaid interest is paid to the holders of such CCI Notes by Holder at the close of business on such Regular Record Date pursuant to the Indenture, then Obligor shall pay to Holder interest on this Mirror Note in an amount equal to the amount paid by Holder to the holders of such CCI Notes. If Holder fails to redeem any CCI Notes in accordance with Section 3.05 of the Indenture and, as a result, interest on such CCI Notes accrues and becomes payable at the rate described in Section 3.05 of the Indenture, then interest payable by Obligor to Holder hereunder on such Principal Amount hereof corresponding to the aggregate principal amount of the affected CCI Notes shall likewise accrue and become payable by Obligor to Holder at the rate described in Section 3.05 of the Indenture, for so long as interest on such CCI Notes remains payable at such rate.
Section 3.03. Mandatory Redemption.
Except as otherwise provided in Article 7, Obligor shall not be required to make mandatory redemption payments with respect to this Mirror Note.

Principal, premium, if any, and interest shall be considered paid on the date due if Holder holds as of 9:30 a.m. New York City time on the due date money deposited by Obligor in immediately
available funds and designated for and sufficient to pay all principal, premium, if any, and interest then due.
Section 4.02. Limited Liability Company Existence.

provided, however, that Obligor shall not be required to preserve any such right, license or franchise, or the corporate, partnership or other existence of any of its Significant Subsidiaries, if the Manager shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of Obligor and its Significant Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, and that the loss thereof is not adverse in any material respect to Obligor.
Section 4.03. Stay, Extension and Usury Laws.
Obligor 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 wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, that may affect the covenants or the performance of this Mirror Note; and Obligor (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law.
ARTICLE 5
DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES
Section 5.01. Events of Default.
A "Mirror Event of Default" shall have occurred if:
(a) Obligor defaults in the payment when due of interest on this Mirror Note and such default continues for a period of 30 days;
(b) Obligor defaults in payment when due of the principal of or premium, if any, on this Mirror Notes; or
(c) A CCI Event of Default has occurred.
Section 5.02. Acceleration.
Upon the acceleration of any amounts payable by Holder pursuant to Section
6.02 of the Indenture, the same Principal Amount of this Mirror Note, together with any accrued and unpaid interest thereon, shall immediately and automatically become due and payable by Obligor to Holder.
Holder by written notice to Obligor may rescind an acceleration and its consequences if the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree and if all existing CCI Events of Default under the Indenture (except nonpayment of principal, interest or premium that has become due solely because of the acceleration) have been cured or waived; provided that such rescission shall be automatic if such acceleration has been rescinded pursuant to the terms of the Indenture.
Section 5.03. Other Remedies.
If a Mirror Event of Default occurs and is continuing, Holder may pursue any available remedy to collect the payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest on this Mirror Note or to enforce the performance of any provision of this Mirror Note.
A delay or omission by Holder in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon a Mirror Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Mirror Event of Default. All remedies are cumulative to the extent permitted by law.
Section 5.04. Waiver of Existing Mirror Defaults.
Holder by the adoption of a resolution of Holder's board of directors may waive an existing Mirror Default or Mirror Event of Default and its consequences hereunder; provided, that such waiver shall be automatic in the case of any Mirror Event of Default predicated solely on a CCI Event of Default, to the extent that the underlying CCI Event of Default has been cured or waived in accordance with the Indenture. Upon any such waiver, such Mirror Default shall cease to exist, and any Mirror Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured for every purpose of this Mirror Note; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Mirror Default or impair any right consequent thereon.
ARTICLE 6
CONVERSION OF MIRROR NOTE
Section 6.01. Conversion and Conversion Rate.
Subject to and upon compliance with the provisions of this Article 6, upon conversion of any principal amount of the CCI Notes pursuant to the terms of the Indenture, a portion of this Mirror Note in a Principal Amount equal to the principal amount of the CCI Notes so converted shall convert automatically into fully paid and nonassessable (calculated as to each conversion to the nearest 1/100th of a Membership Unit) Membership Units of Obligor at the Mirror Conversion Rate, determined as hereinafter
provided, in effect at the time of conversion, plus a number of Membership Units equal to the number of shares of Common Stock issued in payment of the CCI Redemption Make Whole Amount if required to be paid by CCI to the converting holders of the CCI Notes pursuant to the terms of the Indenture and to the extent paid by CCI to such holders in Common Stock.
The rate at which Membership Units shall be delivered upon conversion (herein called the "Mirror Conversion Rate") shall be initially ###-###-#### Membership Units for each U.S. $1,000 principal amount of this Mirror Note. The Mirror Conversion Rate shall be adjusted (rounded to four decimal places) in certain instances as provided in this Article 6.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent the Holder elects pursuant to the terms of the Indenture to pay all or any portion of the conversion price of the CCI Notes (the "CCI Conversion Price") being converted in cash rather than Common Stock, the Obligor shall pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the portion of the CCI Conversion Price of the CCI Notes being converted to be paid in cash by Holder, in lieu of issuing Membership Units to Holder; provided that if a One-for-One Event has occurred, Obligor shall pay cash to the Holder in an amount based on the fair market value of a Membership Unit.
Section 6.02. Conversion.
If this Mirror Note, or a portion thereof, is converted during any Record Date Period, Holder shall pay Obligor cash in an amount equal to the interest payable on the related Mirror Interest Payment Date on the principal amount of this Mirror Note being converted, provided that no such payment needs to be made if this Mirror Note or any portion thereof has been called for redemption on a Mirror Redemption Date that is during that Record Date Period or is subject to repurchase on a Mirror Fundamental Change Repurchase Date occurring during that Record Date Period or unless any overdue interest exists at the time of conversion with respect to this Mirror Note (and then only to the extent of such overdue interest). The interest payable on a Mirror Interest Payment Date when this Mirror Note (or portion thereof, if applicable) is converted during the Record Date Period shall be paid to Holder as of the related Regular Record Date in an amount equal to the interest that would have been payable on the portion of this Mirror Note so converted if such amount had been converted as of the close of business on such Mirror Interest Payment Date. Except as provided in this paragraph, no cash payment or adjustment shall be made upon any conversion on account of any interest accrued from the Mirror Interest Payment Date next preceding the conversion date, in respect of any portion of this Mirror Note converted, or on account of any dividends on the Membership Units issued upon conversion. Obligor's delivery to Holder of the number of Membership Units into which any portion of this Mirror Note is convertible will be deemed to satisfy Obligor's obligation to pay such portion of the principal amount of this Mirror Note.
If any CCI notes are exchanged pursuant to Section 10.06 of the Indenture, appropriate adjustments shall be made to the provisions of this Article 6 as reasonably agreed by Holder and Obligor.
The portion of the Principal Amount of this Mirror Note converted pursuant to this Article 6 shall be deemed to have been converted immediately prior to the close of business on the day of surrender of the CCI Notes that triggered the conversion of such portion of this Mirror Note in accordance with the foregoing provisions. At such time, the rights of Holder with respect to that portion of this Mirror Note that converted into Membership Units shall cease and Holder shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder or holders of such Membership Units at such time.
This Mirror Note may be converted in part, but only if the principal amount to be converted is any integral multiple of U.S. $1,000 and the principal amount of this Mirror Note to remain outstanding after such conversion is equal to U.S. $1,000 or any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.
Section 6.03. Fractions of Membership Units.
No fractional Membership Units shall be issued upon conversion of all or a portion of this Mirror Note. Instead of any fractional Membership Unit which would otherwise be issuable upon conversion of all or any portion of this Mirror Note, Obligor shall calculate and pay a cash adjustment in respect of such fraction (calculated to the nearest 1/100th of a Membership Unit) in an amount equal to the same fraction of the Sale Price at the close of business on the day of conversion (or round up the number of Membership Units issuable upon conversion of any portion of this Mirror Note to the nearest whole Membership Unit if Holder is rounding up to the nearest whole number of shares under Section 6.03 of the Indenture); provided that if a One-for-One Event has occurred, Obligor shall deliver to Holder cash in the amount determined by multiplying the fair market value of a Membership Unit by the fraction and rounding the result to the nearest whole cent.
Section 6.04. Adjustment of Conversion Rate.
(a) The Mirror Conversion Rate shall be automatically adjusted upon each adjustment of the Conversion Rate under the Indenture, by applying the applicable formula for adjustment of the Conversion Rate to the Mirror Conversion Rate, so as to increase or decrease the Mirror Conversion Rate by a number of Membership Units equal to the number of shares of Common Stock by which the Conversion Rate is increased or decreased under the Indenture.
(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 6, if (i) any of Clause (b) of Article Third and Clauses (a)(ii) and (b)(iii) of Article Fourth of CCI's Restated Certificate of Incorporation as in effect on the date hereof or Sections 3.5.4, 3.6.1, 3.6.4(b), 3.6.4(c), and 5.1.7 of the Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement of Obligor as in effect on the date hereof has been amended so as to substantively modify the provisions thereof, or (ii) CCI or Obligor is not in substantial compliance with the provisions described in clause (i) (each of the events described in clauses (i) and (ii) above, a "One-for-One Event"), the Mirror Conversion Rate shall not
be adjusted pursuant to the Indenture and instead shall be adjusted upon the occurrence of certain events affecting Holder's economic interest in Obligor receivable upon conversion of the Mirror Note, including but not limited to subdivisions or combinations of, or distributions of securities on the Membership Units, to the extent necessary to reflect the economic interest Holder would have had in Obligor if this Mirror Note had been converted prior to the occurrence of a One-for-One Event. In the event a One-for-One Event occurs, the Mirror Conversion Rate shall be reasonably adjusted such that upon conversion of this Mirror Note, or a portion hereof, Holder shall be entitled to receive the kind and amount of securities (or any successor securities) that Holder would have owned if it had converted this Mirror Note, or such portion hereof, immediately prior to the One-for-One Event and had retained the securities received in such hypothetical conversion until after the event or events requiring any adjustment to the Mirror Conversion Rate.
Section 6.05. Obligor to Reserve Membership Units.
Obligor shall at all times reserve and keep available, free from preemptive rights, out of its authorized but unissued Membership Units, for the purpose of effecting the conversion of all or any portion of the principal amount outstanding under this Mirror Note, the full number of Membership Units issuable upon the conversion of the entire principal amount outstanding from time to time under this Mirror Note based upon the then effective Mirror Conversion Rate.
Section 6.06. Taxes on Conversions.
Obligor will pay any and all taxes and duties that may be payable in respect of the issue or delivery of Membership Units on conversion of all or any portion of this Mirror Note pursuant hereto.
Section 6.07. Representation Regarding Membership Units.
Obligor represents that all Membership Units which may be delivered upon conversion of all or any portion of this Mirror Note, upon such delivery, will have been duly authorized and validly issued and will be fully paid and nonassessable.
ARTICLE 7

Section 7.01. Mandatory Repurchase.
Upon a repurchase of any CCI Notes by CCI (but not by a third party pursuant to Section 11.02(f) pursuant to Article 11 of the Indenture), Obligor shall repurchase a portion of the Principal Amount of this Mirror Note equal to 100% of the aggregate principal amount of the CCI Notes so repurchased at a price equal to the CCI Repurchase Price, plus interest accrued on this Mirror Note to but excluding the Mirror Repurchase Date (the "Mirror Repurchase Price"); provided, however, that installments of interest on
the portion of this Mirror Note whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the CCI Repurchase Date shall be payable to Holder according to the terms of this Mirror Note.

Section 7.02. Mechanics of Repurchase.
(1) On each Mirror Repurchase Date, Obligor shall pay or cause to be paid to Holder the Mirror Repurchase Price of the portion of this Mirror Note to be repurchased in cash, or, if Membership Units are to be issued as provided above, such units shall be issued as promptly after the CCI Repurchase Date as practicable; provided, however, that installments of interest that mature on or prior to the CCI Repurchase Date shall be payable in cash to Holder.
(2) If any portion of this Mirror Note to be repurchased pursuant to this Article 7 shall not be paid on the CCI Repurchase Date, such principal amount shall, until paid, bear interest to the extent permitted by applicable law from the CCI Repurchase Date at the rate specified in Section 2.02 hereof and such unpaid portion shall remain convertible into Membership Units until such portion shall have been paid or duly provided for.
(3) Any issuance of Membership Units in respect of the Mirror Repurchase Price shall be deemed to have been effected immediately prior to the close of business on the CCI Repurchase Date and Holder shall be deemed to have become on the CCI Repurchase Date the holder of record of such Membership Units.
(4) For purposes of this Section 7, the current market price of a share of Common Stock is the Closing Price Per Share of the Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the CCI Repurchase Date.
