         This Security shall not bear interest, except as specified in paragraph 5 hereof. At Stated Maturity, the Holder of this Security will receive the Contingent Principal Amount of this Security on such date, which for each $1,000 Original Principal Amount will be equal to such Original Principal Amount of $1,000 per Security increased daily by the applicable Yield as provided in the Indenture.

         Subject to the provisions of this paragraph 9 and the Indenture and notwithstanding the fact any other condition to conversion has not been satisfied, Holders may convert the Securities into Common Stock on a Conversion Date during any period in which the credit rating assigned to the Securities by a Rating Agency is reduced to or below the Applicable Rating. “Rating Agency” means (1) Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. and its successors (“Moody’s”), (2) Standard & Poor’s Credit Market Services, a division of The McGraw-Hill Companies Inc., and its successors (“Standard & Poor’s”) and (3) Fitch, Inc. (“Fitch”) and its successors. “Applicable Rating” means (1) Baa1, in the case of Moody’s (or its equivalent under any successor ratings categories of Moody’s), (2) BBB+, in the case of Standard & Poor’s (or its equivalent under any

successor ratings categories of Standard & Poor’s), (3) BBB+ in the case of Fitch (or its equivalent under any successor ratings categories of Fitch) or (4) the equivalent in respect of ratings categories of any Rating Agencies which are successors to Moody’s, Standard & Poor’s or Fitch.

         Subject to the provisions of this paragraph 9 and the Indenture and notwithstanding the fact that any other condition to conversion has not been satisfied, a Holder may convert into Common Stock a Security or portion of a Security which has been called for redemption pursuant to paragraph 6 hereof, even if the Security, or any portion thereof, is not subject to conversion by the Holder, provided such Securities are surrendered for conversion prior to the close of business on the second Business Day immediately preceding the Redemption Date.

         Subject to the provisions of this paragraph 9 and the Indenture and notwithstanding the fact that any other condition to conversion has not been satisfied, in the event that the Company declares a dividend or distribution described in Section 11.07 of the Indenture, or a dividend or a distribution described in Section 11.08 of the Indenture where the fair market value of such dividend or distribution per share of Common Stock, as determined in the Indenture, exceeds 15% of the Sale Price of the Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of declaration for such dividend or distribution, the Securities may be surrendered for conversion beginning on the date the Company gives notice to the Holders of such right, which shall not be less than 20 days prior to the Ex-Dividend Time for such dividend or distribution, and Securities may be surrendered for conversion at any time thereafter until the close of business on the Business Day prior to the Ex-Dividend Time or until the Company announces that such dividend or distribution will not take place. No adjustment to the Conversion Rate or the ability of the Holders to convert this Security will be made if the Company provides, as permitted in the Indenture, for Holders to participate in the transaction without conversion or in other cases specified in the Indenture.

         Subject to the provisions of this paragraph 9 and the Indenture and notwithstanding the fact that any other condition to conversion has not been satisfied, in the event the Company is a party to a consolidation, merger or binding share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock would be converted into cash, securities or other property as set forth in Section 11.14 of the Indenture, the Securities may be surrendered for conversion at any time from and after the date which is 15 days prior to the date of the anticipated effective time of such transaction announced by the Company until 15 days after the actual effective date of such transaction, and at the effective time of such transaction the right to convert a Security into Common Stock will be deemed to have changed into a right to convert it into the kind and amount of cash, securities or other property which the holder would have received if the holder had converted its Security immediately prior to the transaction.

         A Security in respect of which a Holder has delivered a Purchase Notice or Change in Control Purchase Notice exercising the option of such Holder to require the Company to purchase such Security may be converted only if such notice of exercise is withdrawn in accordance with the terms of the Indenture.

         The initial Conversion Rate is 13.8213 shares of Common Stock per $1,000 Original Principal Amount, subject to adjustment for certain events described in the Indenture or this paragraph 9. The Company will deliver cash or a check in lieu of any fractional share of Common Stock due to a Holder, taking into account all Securities converted by a Holder at the same time.

         Contingent interest, if any, will not be paid on Securities that are converted; provided, however that Securities surrendered for conversion during the period from the close of business on the applicable record date to the opening of business on the date on which such contingent interest is payable shall be entitled to receive such contingent interest payable on such Securities on the date on which such contingent interest is payable and (except Securities with respect to which the Company has mailed a notice of redemption) Securities surrendered for conversion during such periods must be accompanied by payment of an amount equal to the contingent interest with respect thereto that the registered Holder is to receive.

         To convert a Security, a Holder must (1) complete and manually sign the conversion notice below (or complete and manually sign a facsimile of such notice) and deliver such notice to the Conversion Agent, (2) surrender the Security 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.

         A Holder may only convert a portion of a Security pursuant to the terms of this paragraph 9 and in accordance with the Indenture if the Original Principal Amount of such portion is $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000. No payment or adjustment will be made for dividends on the Common Stock except as provided herein and in the Indenture. On conversion of a Security, increases in the Contingent Principal Amount attributable to the period from the Issue Date through the Conversion Date, accrued Tax Original Issue Discount and (except as provided above) accrued contingent interest with respect to the converted Security shall not be cancelled, extinguished or forfeited, but rather shall be deemed to be paid in full to the Holder thereof through the delivery of the Common Stock (together with the cash payment, if any, in lieu of fractional shares) in exchange for the Security being converted pursuant to the terms hereof; and 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 the increases in the Contingent Principal Amount accrued through the Conversion Date, accrued Tax Original Issue Discount and accrued contingent interest, and the balance, if any, of such fair market value of such Common Stock (and any such cash payment) shall be treated as issued in exchange for the Issue Price of the Security being converted pursuant to the provisions hereof.

         Pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Indenture, the Conversion Rate will be adjusted for dividends or distributions on Common Stock payable in Common Stock or other capital stock of the Company; subdivisions, combinations or certain reclassifications of Common Stock; distributions to all holders of Common Stock of certain rights to purchase Common Stock for a period expiring within 60 days at less than the Sale Price of the Common Stock at the Time of Determination; and distributions to such holders of assets or debt securities of the Company or certain rights to purchase securities of the Company (excluding certain cash dividends or

distributions). However, no adjustment need be made if Securityholders may participate in the transaction or in certain other cases. The Company from time to time may voluntarily increase the Conversion Rate.

         If the Company is a party to a consolidation, merger or binding share exchange or a transfer of all or substantially all of its assets, or upon certain distributions described in the Indenture, the right to convert a Security into Common Stock may be changed into a right to convert it into securities, cash or other assets of the Company or another person.

         The Conversion Rate will not be adjusted for increases in the Contingent Principal Amount or any contingent interest.

10. [Reserved.]

11. Defaulted Interest.

         Except as otherwise specified with respect to the Securities, any contingent interest on any Security shall forthwith cease to be payable to the registered Holder thereof on the relevant Regular Record Date or accrual date for contingent interest, 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 12.02 of the Indenture.

12. Denominations; Transfer; Exchange.

         The Securities are in fully registered form, without coupons, in denominations of $1,000 of Original Principal Amount and integral multiples of $1,000 Original Principal Amount. A Holder may transfer or exchange Securities in accordance with the Indenture. The Registrar may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Registrar need not transfer or exchange any Securities selected for redemption (except, in the case of a Security to be redeemed in part, the portion of the Security not to be redeemed) or any Securities in respect of which a Purchase Notice or Change in Control Purchase Notice has been given and not withdrawn (except, in the case of a Security to be purchased in part, the portion of the Security not to be purchased) or any Securities for a period of 15 days before the mailing of a notice of redemption of Securities to be redeemed.

13. Persons Deemed Owners.

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

14. Unclaimed Money or Securities.

         The Trustee and the Paying Agent shall return to the Company upon written request any money or securities held by them for the payment of any amount with respect to the Securities that remains unclaimed for two years, subject to applicable unclaimed property laws. After

return to the Company, Holders entitled to the money or securities must look to the Company for payment as general creditors unless an applicable abandoned property law designates another person.

15. Amendment; Waiver.

         Subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Indenture, (i) the Indenture or the Securities may be amended with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate Original Principal Amount of the Securities at the time outstanding and (ii) certain Defaults may be waived with the written consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate Original Principal Amount of the Securities at the time outstanding. Subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Indenture, without the consent of any Securityholder, the Company and the Trustee may amend the Indenture or the Securities to cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency, or to comply with Article 5 or Section 11.14 of the Indenture, to secure the Company’s obligations under this Security or to add to the Company’s covenants for the benefit of the Securityholders or to surrender any right or power conferred, or to comply with any requirement of the SEC in connection with the qualification of the Indenture under the TIA, or as necessary in connection with the registration of the Securities under the Securities Act.

16. Defaults and Remedies.

         If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee, or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate Original Principal Amount of the Securities at the time outstanding, may declare all the Securities to be due and payable immediately. Certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency are Events of Default which will result in the Securities becoming due and payable immediately upon the occurrence of such Events of Default.

         Securityholders may not enforce the Indenture or the Securities except as provided in the Indenture. The Trustee may refuse to enforce the Indenture or the Securities unless it receives indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in aggregate Original Principal Amount of the Securities at the time outstanding may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Securityholders notice of any continuing Default (except a Default in payment of amounts specified in clause (i) or (ii) above) if it determines that withholding notice is in their interests.

17. Trustee Dealings with the Company.

         Subject to certain limitations imposed by the TIA, the Trustee under the Indenture, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and may otherwise deal with and collect obligations owed to it by the Company or its respective Affiliates and may otherwise deal with the Company or its respective Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee.

18. No Recourse Against Others.

         A director, officer, employee or stockholder, as such, of the Company shall not 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. By accepting a Security, each Securityholder waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issue of the Securities.

19. Authentication.

         This Security shall not be valid until an authorized signatory of the Trustee manually signs the Trustee’s Certificate of Authentication on the other side of this Security.

20. Abbreviations.
