(b)Initial and Subsequent Form of Securities.  The Company hereby initially appoints The Depository Trust Company as the Depository for the Securities, which initially shall be issued in the form of one or more Global Securities without interest coupons (i) registered in the name of Cede & Co. as nominee of the Depository, and (ii) delivered to the Trustee as custodian for the Depository.

So long as the Securities are eligible for book‑entry settlement with the Depository, unless otherwise required by law, and except to the extent provided in Section 2.03(c)(1) through (3) hereof, all Securities will be represented by one or more Global Securities.

(c)Global Securities.  Each Global Security will represent the aggregate principal amount of the then Outstanding Securities endorsed thereon and provide that it represents such aggregate principal amount of the then Outstanding Securities, which aggregate principal amount may, from time to time, be reduced or increased to reflect transfers, exchanges, conversions or purchases by the Company.

Only the Trustee, or the Custodian holding such Global Security for the Depository, at the direction of the Trustee, may endorse a Global Security to reflect the amount of any increase or decrease in the aggregate principal amount of the then Outstanding Securities represented thereby, and whenever the Holder of a Global Security delivers instructions to the Trustee to increase or decrease the aggregate principal amount of the then Outstanding Securities represented by a Global Security in accordance with the Indenture and the Applicable Procedures, the Trustee, or the Custodian holding such Global Security for the Depository, at the

‑13‑

direction of the Trustee, will endorse such Global Security to reflect such increase or decrease in the aggregate principal amount of the then Outstanding Securities represented thereby.  None of the Trustee, the Company or any agent of the Trustee or the Company will have any responsibility or bear any liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of the ownership of any beneficial interest in a Global Security or with respect to maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial interest.

Members of, or participants in, the Depository (“Agent Members”) shall have no rights under the Indenture with respect to any Global Security held on their behalf by the Depository, or the Trustee as its custodian, or under the Global Security, and Cede & Co. or such other person designated by the Depository as its nominee, may be treated by the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee as the absolute owner of the Global Security for all purposes whatsoever.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Company, the Trustee or any agent of the Company or the Trustee from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by the Depository or impair, as between the Depository and its Agent Members, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of any Holder.

As used in this Section 2.03(e), the term “transfer” encompasses any sale, pledge, transfer or other disposition whatsoever of any Restricted Security.

Section 2.04Payments on the Securities.

(a)In General.  Each Security will accrue interest at a rate equal to 5.50% per annum from the most recent date on which interest has been paid or duly provided for, or, if no interest has been paid or duly provided for, the Issue Date.  Interest on a Security will cease to accrue upon the earliest of the Maturity Date, subject to the provisions of Article 3 hereof, any Fundamental Change Purchase Date for such Security, and subject to the provisions of Article 4 hereof, any Exchange Date for such Security.  Interest on any Security will be payable semi‑annually in arrears on each Interest Payment Date, beginning May 1, 2020, to the Holder of such Security as of the Close of Business on the Regular Record Date immediately preceding the applicable Interest Payment Date.  As provided in Section 310 of the Base Indenture, interest will be computed on the basis of a 360‑day year comprised of twelve 30‑day months and, for a partial month, on the basis of the number of days actually elapsed in a 30-day month.  Pursuant to Section 6.04 hereof, in certain circumstances, the Company may be obligated to pay Holders Supplementary Interest.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, if the Maturity Date or any Interest Payment Date or Fundamental Change Purchase Date or any Exchange Date falls, or if any payment, delivery, notice or other action by the Company is otherwise due, on a day that is not a Business Day, then any action to be taken on such date need not be taken on such date, but may be taken on the immediately following Business Day with the same force and effect as if taken on such date, and no additional interest will accrue and no Default shall occur on account of such delay.

(b)Method of Payment.  The Company will pay the principal of, the Fundamental Change Purchase Price for, and any cash in lieu of fractional shares due as part of the Settlement Amount with respect to, any Physical Security to the Holder of such Security in cash at the designated office of the Paying Agent in the borough of Manhattan in The City of New York, New York, prior to 10:00 a.m. on the relevant payment date.  The Company will pay any interest on any Physical Security to the Holder of such Security (i) if such Holder holds $2,000,000 or less aggregate principal amount of Securities, by check mailed to such Holder’s registered address, and (ii) if such Holder holds more than $2,000,000 aggregate principal amount of Securities, (A) by check mailed to such Holder’s registered address or, (B) if such Holder delivers to the Security Registrar a written request that the Company make such payments by wire transfer to an account of such Holder within the United States, for each interest payment corresponding to each Regular Record Date occurring during the period beginning on the date on which such Holder delivered such request and ending on the date, if any, on which such Holder delivers to the Security Registrar a written instruction to the contrary, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account specified by such Holder.

(c)Notwithstanding the foregoing, there shall be no purchase of any Securities pursuant to this Section 3.02 if the principal amount of the Securities has been accelerated, and such acceleration has not been rescinded, on or prior to the Fundamental Change Purchase Date (except in the case of an acceleration resulting from a Default by the Company in the payment of the Fundamental Change Purchase Price with respect to such Securities).  The Paying Agent will promptly return to the respective Holders thereof any Physical Securities held by it during the acceleration of the Securities (except in the case of an acceleration resulting from a Default by the Company in the payment of the Fundamental Change Purchase Price with respect to such Securities) and shall deem to be cancelled any instructions for book‑entry transfer of the Securities in compliance with the procedures of the Depository, in which case, upon such return or cancellation, as the case may be, the Fundamental Change Purchase Notice with respect thereto shall be deemed to have been withdrawn.

(b)

(1)Prior to the Close of Business on August 1, 2024, a Holder may surrender all or any portion of its Securities for exchange at any time during any calendar quarter commencing after the calendar quarter ending on December 31, 2019 (and only during such calendar quarter), if the Last Reported Sale Price of Common Shares for at least 20 Trading Days (whether or not consecutive) during the period of 30 consecutive Trading Days ending on the last Trading Day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter is greater than or equal to 110% of the applicable Exchange Price on each applicable Trading Day.

(2)Prior to the Close of Business on the Business Day immediately preceding August 1, 2024, a Holder may surrender all or any portion of its Securities for exchange at any time during the five Business Day period after any 10 consecutive Trading Day period (the “Measurement Period”) in which the Trading Price per $1,000 principal amount of Securities, as determined following a request by a Holder in accordance with the procedures set forth in this subsection (b)(2) for each Trading Day of the Measurement Period was less than 98% of the product of (x) the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Shares and (y) the applicable Exchange Rate on each such Trading Day. The Trading Prices shall be determined by the Bid Solicitation Agent pursuant to this subsection (b)(2) and the definition of “Trading Price” set forth in this Indenture. The Company shall provide written notice to the Bid Solicitation Agent (if other than the Company) of the three independent nationally recognized securities dealers selected by the Company in accordance with the definition of Trading Price, along with the appropriate contact information for each. The Bid Solicitation Agent (if other than the Company) shall have no obligation to determine the Trading Price per $1,000 principal amount of Securities unless the Company has requested such determination; and the Company shall have no obligation to make such request (or, if the Company is the Bid Solicitation Agent, the Company shall have no obligation to determine the Trading Price of the Securities) unless a Holder of a Security provides the Company with reasonable evidence that the Trading Price per $1,000 principal amount of Securities would be less than 98% of the product of (x) the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Shares on such Trading Day and (y) the applicable Exchange Rate on such Trading Day. At such time, the Company shall instruct the Bid Solicitation Agent (if other than the Company) to determine or, if the Company is the Bid Solicitation Agent, the Company shall determine the Trading Price per $1,000 principal amount of the Securities beginning on the next Trading Day and on each successive Trading Day until the Trading Price per $1,000 principal amount of Securities for a Trading Day is greater than or equal to 98% of the product of (x) the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Shares on such Trading Day and (y) the applicable Exchange Rate on such Trading Day. Whenever the condition to exchange set forth in this subsection (b)(2) has been met, the Company will so notify the Holders, the Trustee and the Exchange Agent (if other than the Trustee). If, at any time after the condition to exchange set forth in this subsection (b)(2) has been met, the Trading Price per $1,000 principal amount of Securities is greater than or equal to 98% of the product of (x) the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Shares and (y) the applicable Exchange Rate for such date, the Company will so notify the Holders, the Trustee and the Exchange Agent (if other than the Trustee) promptly. The Company will initially act as Bid Solicitation Agent.

(B)distribute to all or substantially all holders of the Common Shares the Company’s assets, securities or rights to purchase the Company’s securities, which distribution has a per share value, as reasonably determined by the Board of Directors, exceeding 10% of the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Shares on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of announcement for such distribution,

then, in either case, the Company must notify the Holders at least 35 Scheduled Trading Days prior to the Ex-Dividend Date for such issuance or distribution. Once the Company has given such notice, Holders may surrender all or any portion of their Securities for exchange at any time until the earlier of 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Business Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date for such issuance or distribution and the Company’s announcement that such issuance or distribution will not take place, even if the Securities are not otherwise exchangeable at such time. Holders of the Securities will not, however, have the right to exchange pursuant to this subsection (b)(3) if they participate, at the same time and upon the same terms, as holders of Common Shares in any of the transactions described above without having to exchange their Securities as if they held a number of shares of the Common Shares equal to the applicable Exchange Rate in effect immediately prior to the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such issuance or distribution multiplied by the principal amount (expressed in thousands) of Securities held by such holder on the Ex-Dividend Date for such issuance or distribution.

 

(4)If (A) a Fundamental Change or a Make-Whole Fundamental Change occurs prior to the Close of Business on the Business Day immediately preceding August 1, 2024, regardless of whether a Holder has the right to require the Company to purchase the Securities as described under Article 3, or (B) the Company is a party to a consolidation, merger, binding share exchange, or transfer or lease of all or substantially all of its assets (other than a merger effected solely to change the Company’s jurisdiction of incorporation that does not otherwise constitute a Fundamental Change or a Make-Whole Fundamental Change), in each case, pursuant to which the Common Shares would be exchanged into cash, securities or other assets, all or any portion of a Holder’s Securities may be surrendered for exchange at any time from or after the effective date of the transaction or event until 35 Trading Days after such effective date or, if such transaction or event also constitutes a Fundamental Change, until the related Fundamental Change Purchase Date. The Company will notify the Holders, the Trustee

‑25‑

---

 

and the Exchange Agent (if other than the Trustee) no later than the effective date of such transaction or event.

(c)Notwithstanding any other provision of the Securities or the Indenture, no Holder of Securities will be entitled to receive Common Shares following exchange of such Securities to the extent that receipt of such Common Shares would cause such Holder to exceed the ownership limits contained in the Guarantor’s declaration of trust, unless such Holder has been exempted from such restrictions in the sole discretion of the Board of Trustees and in accordance with the Guarantor’s declaration of trust, or violate the other restrictions on ownership and transfer of the Guarantor’s Capital Stock contained in the Guarantor’s declaration of trust.

(d)If any delivery of Common Shares owed to a Holder upon exchange of Securities is not made, in whole or in part, as a result of the limitations described in Section 4.01(c), the Company’s obligation to make such delivery shall not be extinguished and the Company shall deliver such Common Shares as promptly as practicable after any such exchanging Holder gives notice to the Company that such delivery would not result in it being the beneficial or constructive owner of more than 9.8% (by vote or value, whichever is more restrictive) of outstanding Common Shares, or 9.8% (by vote or value, whichever is more restrictive) of the Guarantor’s outstanding shares of Capital Stock at such time.

Section 4.02Exchange Procedures

(a)Each Security shall be exchangeable at the office of the Exchange Agent and, if applicable, in accordance with the Applicable Procedures of the Depository.

(b)To exercise the exchange privilege with respect to a beneficial interest in a Global Security, the Holder must complete the appropriate instruction form for exchange pursuant to the Depository’s book‑entry exchange program, furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents if required by the Company or the Exchange Agent, and pay the funds, if any, required by Section 4.02(f) and any taxes or duties if required pursuant to Section 4.02(g), and the Exchange Agent must be informed of the exchange in accordance with the customary practice of the Depository.

To exercise the exchange privilege with respect to any Physical Securities, the Holder of such Physical Securities shall:

(1)complete and manually sign an exchange notice in the form set forth in the Form of Notice of Exchange (the “Exchange Notice”) or a facsimile of the Exchange Notice;

(2)deliver the Exchange Notice, which is irrevocable, and the original Security to the Exchange Agent;

(3)if required, furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents;

(4)if required, make any payment required under Section 4.02(f); and

‑26‑

---

 

(5)if required, pay all transfer or similar taxes as set forth in Section 4.02(g).

If, upon exchange of a Security, any Common Shares are to be issued to a person other than the Holder of such Security, the related Exchange Notice shall include such other person’s name and address.

If a Security is subject to a Fundamental Change Purchase Notice, such Security may not be exchanged unless such Fundamental Change Purchase Notice is withdrawn in accordance with Section 3.04 hereof prior to the relevant Fundamental Change Expiration Time.

For any Security, the first Business Day on which the Holder of such Security satisfies all of the applicable requirements set forth above with respect to such Security and on which exchange of such Security is not otherwise prohibited under this Supplemental Indenture shall be the “Exchange Date” with respect to such Security.

Each exchange shall be deemed to have been effected as to any such Securities surrendered for exchange at the Close of Business on the applicable Exchange Date; provided however, that the person in whose name any Common Shares shall be issuable upon exchange will become the holder of record of such shares as of the close of business on: (1) the Exchange Date, if the Company elects Physical Settlement or (2) the last VWAP trading day of the relevant observation period, if the Company elects or is deemed to elect Combination Settlement.   At the Close of Business on the Exchange Date for a Security, the exchanging Holder shall no longer be the Holder of such Security; provided, however, that (a) the exchanging Holder shall have the right to receive the Settlement Amount due upon exchange and (b) in the case of an exchange between a Regular Record Date and the corresponding Interest Payment Date, the Holder of record as of the close of business on such Regular Record Date shall have the right to receive the interest payable on such Interest Payment Date, in accordance with Section 4.03(c), subject to Section 4.02(f).

Subject to the next paragraph and the provisions of Section 4.06(b) and Section 4.07(a), the Company shall pay or deliver, as the case may be, the Settlement Amount due in respect of its exchange obligation no later than:

(i) the second Business Day immediately following the relevant Exchange Date, if the Company elects Physical Settlement; or

(ii) the second Business Day immediately following the last VWAP Trading Day of the relevant Observation Period, if the Company elects Cash Settlement or if the Company elects or is deemed to elect Combination Settlement.

If any Common Shares are due to exchanging Holders, the Company shall issue or cause to be issued, and deliver to such Holder, or such Holder’s nominee or nominees, certificates or a book-entry transfer through the Depository, as the case may be, for the full number of Common Shares to which such Holder shall be entitled in satisfaction of the Company’s exchange obligation.

‑27‑

(c)Endorsement.  Any Securities surrendered for exchange shall, unless Common Shares issuable on exchange are to be issued in the same name as the registration of such Securities, be duly endorsed by, or be accompanied by instruments of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company duly executed by, the Holder or its duly authorized attorney.

(d)Physical Securities.  If any Securities in a denomination greater than $1,000 shall be surrendered for partial exchange, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of the Securities so surrendered, without charge, new Securities in authorized denominations in an aggregate principal amount equal to the unexchanged portion of the surrendered Securities and having a notation of the Guarantee of the Guarantor endorsed thereon.

(e)Global Securities.  Upon the exchange of a beneficial interest in Global Securities, the Exchange Agent shall make a notation in its records as to the reduction in the principal amount represented thereby.  The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of any exchanges of Securities effected through any Exchange Agent other than the Trustee.

(f)Interest Due Upon Exchange.  If a Holder exchanges a Security after the Close of Business on a Regular Record Date but prior to the Open of Business on the Interest Payment Date corresponding to such Regular Record Date, such Holder must accompany such Security with an amount of cash equal to the amount of interest that will be payable on such Security on the corresponding Interest Payment Date; provided, however, that a Holder need not make such payment (1) if the Exchange Date follows the Regular Record Date immediately preceding the Maturity Date; (2) if the Company has specified a Fundamental Change Purchase Date that is after a Regular Record Date and on or prior to the corresponding Interest Payment Date; or (3) to the extent of any overdue interest, if any overdue interest exists at the time of exchange with respect to such Security.

(g)Taxes Due upon Exchange.  If a Holder exchanges a Security, the Company will pay any documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer tax due on the issue of any Common Shares upon the exchange, unless the tax is due because the Holder requests that any shares be issued in a name other than the Holder’s name, in which case the Holder will pay that tax.

Section 4.03Settlement Upon Exchange.

(a)Subject to this Section 4.03, Section 4.06(b) and Section 4.07(a), upon exchange of any Security, the Company shall, at its election, pay or deliver, as the case may be, to the exchanging Holder, in full satisfaction of its exchange obligation, solely cash (“Cash Settlement”), solely Common Shares, together with cash, if applicable, in lieu of delivering any fractional Common Share in accordance with Section 4.03(c) (“Physical Settlement”), or a combination of cash and Common Shares, together with cash, if applicable, in lieu of delivering any fractional Common Share in accordance with Section 4.03(c) (“Combination Settlement”), as set forth in this Section 4.03.

(1)All exchanges for which the relevant Exchange Date occurs on or after August 1, 2024 shall be settled using the same Settlement Method (including the same

‑28‑

---

 

relative proportion of cash and/or shares of the Common Shares). Except for any exchanges for which the relevant Exchange Date occurs on or after August 1, 2024, the Company will use the same Settlement Method (including the same relative proportion of cash and/or shares of the Common Shares) for all exchanges with the same Exchange Date, but the Company will not have any obligation to use the same Settlement Method with respect to exchanges with different Exchange Dates.

(2)If the Company elects a Settlement Method, the Company shall deliver notice to Holders so exchanging through the Exchange Agent of such Settlement Method the Company has selected no later than the close of business on the Trading Day immediately following the related Exchange Date (or in the case of any exchanges for which the relevant Exchange Date occurs on or after August 1, 2024, no later than August 1, 2024). If the Company does not timely elect a Settlement Method, the Company shall no longer have the right to elect Cash Settlement or Physical Settlement with respect to that Exchange Date and the Company shall be deemed to have elected Combination Settlement in respect of its exchange obligation, and the Specified Dollar Amount per $1,000 principal amount of Securities shall be equal to $1,000. If the Company has timely elected Combination Settlement in respect of any exchange but does not timely notify the Exchange Agent of the Specified Dollar Amount per $1,000 principal amount of Securities, the Specified Dollar Amount shall be deemed to be $1,000.

(3)The cash, Common Shares or combination of cash and Common Shares payable or deliverable by the Company in respect of any exchange of Securities (the “Settlement Amount”) shall be computed by the Company as follows:

(A)if the Company elects to satisfy its exchange obligation in respect of such exchange by Physical Settlement, the Company shall deliver to the exchanging Holder in respect of each $1,000 principal amount of Securities being exchanged a number of Common Shares equal to the Exchange Rate on the Exchange Date (plus cash in lieu of any fractional Common Share issuable upon exchange);

(B)if the Company elects to satisfy its exchange obligation in respect of such exchange by Cash Settlement, the Company shall pay to the exchanging Holder in respect of each $1,000 principal amount of Securities being exchanged cash in an amount equal to the sum of the Daily Exchange Values for each of the 30 consecutive VWAP Trading Days during the related Observation Period; and

(C)if the Company elects (or is deemed to have elected) to satisfy its exchange obligation in respect of such exchange by Combination Settlement, the Company shall pay or deliver, as the case may be, to the exchanging Holder in respect of each $1,000 principal amount of Securities being exchanged a Settlement Amount equal to the sum of the Daily Settlement Amounts for each of the 30 consecutive VWAP Trading Days during the related Observation Period (plus cash in lieu of any fractional Common Share issuable upon exchange).

‑29‑

---

 

If more than one Security shall be surrendered for exchange at any one time by the same Holder, the exchange obligation with respect to such Securities shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities (or specified portions thereof to the extent permitted hereby) so surrendered.

(4)The Daily Settlement Amounts (if applicable) and the Daily Exchange Values (if applicable) shall be determined by the Company promptly following the last VWAP Trading Day of the related Observation Period. Promptly after such determination of the Daily Settlement Amounts or the Daily Exchange Values, as the case may be, and, if applicable, the amount of cash payable in lieu of any fractional Common Share, the Company shall notify the Trustee and the Exchange Agent (if other than the Trustee) of the Daily Settlement Amounts or the Daily Exchange Values, as the case may be, and, if applicable, the amount of cash payable in lieu of fractional Common Shares. The Trustee and the Exchange Agent (if other than the Trustee) shall have no responsibility for any such determination.

(b)Fractional Shares.  The Company shall not issue any fractional Common Shares upon exchange of the Securities and shall instead pay cash in lieu of any fractional Common Share issuable upon exchange in an amount based on (i) the Daily VWAP on the relevant Exchange Date if the Company elects Physical Settlement or (ii) the Daily VWAP on the last VWAP Trading Day of the relevant Observation Period if the Company elects or is deemed to elect Combination Settlement. For each Security surrendered for exchange, if the Company has elected (or is deemed to elect) Combination Settlement, the full number of shares that shall be issued upon exchange thereof shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate Daily Settlement Amounts for the relevant Observation Period and, if applicable, any fractional share remaining after such computation shall be paid in cash.

(c)Settlement of Accrued Interest and Deemed Payment of Principal.  If a Holder exchanges a Security, the Company will not adjust the Exchange Rate to account for any accrued and unpaid interest on such Security and the Company’s delivery of the Common Shares and any cash amount for which a Security is exchangeable will be deemed to satisfy and discharge in full the Company’s obligation to pay the principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on, such Security to, but excluding, the Exchange Date; provided, however, that if a Holder exchanges a Security after a Regular Record Date and prior to the Open of Business on the corresponding Interest Payment Date, the Company will still be obligated to pay the interest due on such Interest Payment Date to the Holder of such Security on such Regular Record Date (provided the Holder makes the interest payment upon exchange if so required by Section 4.02(f)).

As a result, except as otherwise provided in the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence, any accrued and unpaid interest with respect to an exchanged Security will be deemed to be paid in full rather than cancelled, extinguished or forfeited.  In no event will a Holder be entitled to receive any dividend or other distribution with respect to any Common Shares issued on exchange of such Holder’s Securities if the applicable Exchange Date is after the record date for such dividend or distribution.

(d)Notices.  Whenever an Exchange Date occurs with respect to a Security, the Exchange Agent will, as promptly as possible, and in no event later than the Business Day

‑30‑

---

 

immediately following such Exchange Date, deliver to the Company and the Trustee, if it is not then the Exchange Agent, notice that an Exchange Date has occurred, which notice will state such Exchange Date, the principal amount of Securities exchanged on such Exchange Date and the names of the Holders that exchanged Securities on such Exchange Date.

Section 4.04Adjustment of Exchange Rate.  The Exchange Rate will be adjusted as described in this Section 4.04, except that the Company shall not make any adjustment to the Exchange Rate if Holders participate (other than in the case of a share split or share combination), at the same time and upon the same terms as holders of the Common Shares and as a result of holding the Securities, in any of the transactions described below without having to exchange their Securities, as if they held a number of Common Shares equal to the applicable Exchange Rate, multiplied by the principal amount (expressed in thousands) of Securities held by such Holder.

(a)If the Guarantor exclusively issues Common Shares as a dividend or distribution on all or substantially all Common Shares, or if the Guarantor effects a share split or share combination, the Exchange Rate will be adjusted based on the following formula:

where,

Any adjustment made under this Section 4.04(a) shall become effective immediately after the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution, or immediately after the Open of Business on the effective date for such share split or share combination.  If any dividend or distribution of the type described in this Section 4.04(a) is declared but not so paid or made, the Exchange Rate shall be immediately readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Trustees determines not to pay such dividend or distribution to the

‑31‑

---

 

Exchange Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared.

(b)If the Guarantor issues to all or substantially all holders of the Common Shares any rights, options or warrants entitling them, for a period of not more than 45 calendar days after the announcement date of such issuance, to subscribe for or purchase the Common Shares, at a price per share less than the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Shares for the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of announcement of such issuance, the Exchange Rate will be increased based on the following formula:

where,

Any increase made under this Section 4.04(b) will be made successively whenever any such rights, options or warrants are issued and shall become effective immediately after the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such issuance.  To the extent that such rights, options or warrants are not exercised prior to their expiration or Common Shares are not delivered upon the expiration of such rights, options or warrants, the Exchange Rate shall be readjusted to the Exchange Rate that would then be in effect had the increase with respect to the issuance of such rights, options or warrants been made on the basis of delivery of only the number of Common Shares actually delivered.  If such rights, options or warrants are not so issued, or if such rights, options or warrants are not exercised prior to their expiration, the Exchange Rate shall be decreased to be the Exchange Rate that would then be in effect if such Ex-Dividend Date for such issuance had not occurred.

‑32‑

---

 

For purposes of this Section 4.04(b) and Section 4.01(b)(3)(A), in determining whether any rights, options or warrants entitle the holders of the Common Shares to subscribe for or purchase Common Shares at a price per share less than such average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Shares for the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of announcement for such issuance, and in determining the aggregate offering price of such Common Shares, there shall be taken into account any consideration received by the Guarantor for such rights, options or warrants and any amount payable on exercise or exchange thereof, the value of such consideration, if other than cash, to be determined by the Board of Trustees.

(c)If the Guarantor distributes shares of its Capital Stock, evidences of its indebtedness, other assets or property of the Guarantor or rights, options or warrants to acquire its Capital Stock or other securities, to all or substantially all holders of the Common Shares, excluding:

(1)dividends or distributions, rights options or warrants as to which an adjustment was effected pursuant to Section 4.04(a) hereof or Section 4.04(b) hereof;

(2)dividends or distributions paid exclusively in cash as to which an adjustment was effected pursuant to Section 4.04(d) hereof; and

(3)Spin‑Offs as to which the provisions set forth below in this Section 4.04(c) shall apply;

then the Exchange Rate shall be increased based on the following formula:

where,

‑33‑

---

 

If “FMV” (as defined above) is equal to or greater than the “SP₀” (as defined above), in lieu of the foregoing increase, each Holder of Securities shall receive, in respect of each $1,000 principal amount of Securities it holds, at the same time and upon the same terms as holders of the Common Shares, the amount and kind of the Guarantor’s Capital Stock, evidences of the Guarantor’s indebtedness, other assets or property of the Guarantor or rights, options or warrants to acquire the Guarantor’s Capital Stock or other securities that such Holder would have received as if such Holder owned a number of Common Shares equal to the Exchange Rate in effect on the Ex-Dividend Date for the distribution.

Any increase made under the above portion of this Section 4.04(c) will become effective immediately after the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution.  If such distribution is not so paid or made, the Exchange Rate shall be decreased to be the Exchange Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared.

With respect to an adjustment pursuant to this Section 4.04(c) where there has been a payment of a dividend or other distribution on the Common Shares of shares of Capital Stock of any class or series, or similar equity interest, of or relating to a Subsidiary of the Guarantor or other business unit of the Guarantor, and such shares of Capital Stock or similar equity interest are listed or quoted (or will be listed or quoted upon the consummation of the distribution) on a United States national securities exchange (a “Spin‑Off”), the Exchange Rate will be increased based on the following formula:

where,

‑34‑

---

 

The increase to the Exchange Rate under the preceding paragraph shall occur at the Close of Business on the last Trading Day of the Valuation Period; provided, however, that (x) in respect of any exchange of Securities for which Physical Settlement is applicable, if the relevant Exchange Date occurs during the Valuation Period, the references to “10” in the preceding paragraph shall be deemed to be replaced with such lesser number of Trading Days as have elapsed between the Ex-Dividend Date of such Spin-Off and the Exchange Date in determining the Exchange Rate and (y) in respect of any exchange of Securities for which Cash Settlement or Combination Settlement is applicable, for any Trading Day that falls within the relevant Observation Period for such exchange and within the Valuation Period, the references to “10” in the preceding paragraph shall be deemed to be replaced with such lesser number of Trading Days as have elapsed between the Ex-Dividend Date of such Spin-Off and such Trading Day in determining the Exchange Rate as of such Trading Day. In addition, if the Ex-Dividend Date for such Spin-Off is after the 10th Trading Day immediately preceding, and including, the end of any Observation Period in respect of an exchange of Securities, references to “10” or “10th” in the preceding paragraph and this paragraph shall be deemed to be replaced, solely in respect of that exchange, with such lesser number of Trading Days as have elapsed from, and including, the Ex-Dividend Date for the Spin-Off to, and including, the last Trading Day of such Observation Period. If such Spin-Off does not occur, the Exchange Rate shall be decreased to be the Exchange Rate that would then be in effect if such distribution had not been declared, effective as of the date on which the Board of Trustees (or its designee) determines not to consummate such Spin-Off.

Subject to Section 4.04(g), for the purposes of this Section 4.04(c), rights, options or warrants distributed by the Guarantor to all holders of the Common Shares entitling them to subscribe for or purchase shares of the Guarantor’s Capital Stock (either initially or under certain circumstances), which rights, options or warrants, until the occurrence of a specified event or events (a “Trigger Event”):  (1) are deemed to be transferred with such Common Shares; (2) are not exercisable; and (3) are also issued in respect of future issuances of Common Shares, shall be deemed not to have been distributed for purposes of this Section 4.04(c), (and no adjustment to the Exchange Rate under this Section 4.04(c) will be required) until the occurrence of the earliest Trigger Event, whereupon such rights, options or warrants shall be deemed to have been distributed and an appropriate adjustment (if any is required) to the Exchange Rate shall be made under this Section 4.04(c).  If any such right, option or warrant, distributed prior to the Issue Date are subject to events, upon the occurrence of which such rights, options or warrants become exercisable to purchase different securities, evidences of indebtedness or other assets, then the date of the occurrence of any and each such event shall be deemed to be the date of distribution and Ex‑Dividend Date of such deemed distribution (in which case the original rights, options or warrants shall be deemed to terminate and expire on such date without exercise by any of the holders).  In addition, in the event of any distribution or deemed distribution of rights, options or

‑35‑

---

 

warrants, or any Trigger Event or other event (of the type described in the preceding sentence) with respect thereto that was counted for purposes of calculating a distribution amount for which an adjustment to the Exchange Rate under this Section 4.04(c) was made, (1) in the case of any such rights, options or warrants which shall all have been redeemed or purchased without exercise by any holders thereof, upon such final redemption or purchase (x) the Exchange Rate shall be readjusted as if such rights, options or warrants had not been issued and (y) the Exchange Rate shall then again be readjusted to give effect to such distribution, deemed distribution or Trigger Event, as the case may be, as though it were a cash distribution, equal to the per share redemption or purchase price received by holders of Common Shares with respect to such rights, options or warrants (assuming each such holder had retained such rights, options or warrants), made to all holders of Common Shares as of the date of such redemption or purchase, and (2) in the case of such rights, options or warrants which shall have expired or been terminated without exercise by any holders thereof, the Exchange Rate shall be readjusted as if such rights and warrants had not been issued.

For purposes of Section 4.04(a) hereof, Section 4.04(b) hereof and this Section 4.04(c), if any dividend or distribution to which this Section 4.04(c) applies includes one or both of:

(A)a dividend or distribution of Common Shares to which Section 4.04(a) hereof also applies (the “Clause A Distribution”); or

(B)a dividend or distribution of rights, options or warrants to which Section 4.04(b) hereof also applies (the “Clause B Distribution”),

then (i) such dividend or distribution, other than the Clause A Distribution and the Clause B Distribution, shall be deemed to be a dividend or distribution to which this Section 4.04(c) applies (the “Clause C Distribution”) and any Exchange Rate adjustment required to be made under this Section 4.04(c) with respect to such Clause C Distribution shall be made, (ii) the Clause B Distribution, if any, shall be deemed to immediately follow the Clause C Distribution and any Exchange Rate adjustment required by Section 4.04(b) hereof with respect thereto shall then be made, except that, if determined by the Company, (A) the “record date” of the Clause B Distribution and the Clause A Distribution, if any, shall be deemed to be the Ex‑Dividend Date of the Clause C Distribution and (B) any Common Shares included in the Clause A Distribution or the Clause B Distribution shall not be deemed to be “outstanding immediately prior to the Open of Business on such record date” within the meaning of Section 4.04(b) hereof, and (iii) the Clause A Distribution, if any, shall be deemed to immediately follow the Clause C Distribution or the Clause B Distribution, as the case may be, except that, if determined by the Company, (A) the record date of the Clause A Distribution and the Clause B Distribution, if any, shall be deemed to be the Ex‑Dividend Date of the Clause C Distribution, and (B) any Common Shares included in the Clause A Distribution shall not be deemed to be “outstanding immediately prior to the Open of Business on such record date or such effective date” within the meaning of Section 4.04(a) hereof.

(d)If any cash dividend or distribution is made to all or substantially all holders of the Common Shares to the extent that the aggregate of all such cash dividends or

‑36‑

---

 

distributions paid in any quarter exceeds the dividends threshold amount (the “DTA”) for such quarter, the Exchange Rate shall be adjusted based on the following formula:

where,

The DTA is subject to adjustment on an inversely proportional basis whenever the Exchange Rate is adjusted other than adjustments made pursuant to this Section 4.04(d).  If an adjustment is required to be made as set forth in this Section 4.04(d) as a result of a distribution that is not a regular quarterly dividend, the DTA will be deemed to be zero with respect to that particular adjustment.

Any increase made pursuant to this Section 4.04(d) shall become effective immediately after the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution. If such dividend or distribution is not so paid, the Exchange Rate shall be decreased, effective as of the date the Board of Trustees determines not to make or pay such dividend or distribution, to the Exchange Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared.

If “C” (as defined above) is equal to or greater than “SP₀” (as defined above), in lieu of the foregoing increase, each Holder shall receive, for each $1,000 principal amount of Securities it holds, at the same time and upon the same terms as holders of the Common Shares, the amount of cash that such Holder would have received if such Holder had owned a number of Common Shares equal to the Exchange Rate in effect immediately prior to the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution.  If such dividend or distribution is not so paid, the Exchange Rate shall be decreased to be the Exchange Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared.

(e)If the Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries make a payment in respect of a tender offer or exchange offer for the Common Shares, to the extent that the cash and value of any other consideration included in the payment per Common Share exceeds the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Shares on the Trading Day next succeeding the last date on which tenders or exchanges may be made pursuant to such tender or exchange offer (the “Expiration Date”), the Exchange Rate shall be increased based on the following formula:

where,

The increase to the Exchange Rate under this Section 4.04(e) shall occur at the Close of Business on the 10th Trading Day immediately following, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the date such tender or exchange offer expires; provided that (x) in respect of any exchange of Securities for which Physical Settlement is applicable, if the relevant Exchange Date occurs during the 10 Trading Days immediately following, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Date of any tender or exchange offer, references to “10” or “10th” in the preceding paragraph shall be deemed to be replaced with such lesser

‑38‑

---

 

number of Trading Days as have elapsed between such Expiration Date of such tender or exchange offer and the Exchange Date in determining the Exchange Rate and (y) in respect of any exchange of Securities for which Cash Settlement or Combination Settlement is applicable, for any Trading Day that falls within the relevant Observation Period for such exchange and within the 10 Trading Days immediately following, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Date of any tender or exchange offer, references to “10” or “10th” in the preceding paragraph shall be deemed to be replaced with such lesser number of Trading Days as have elapsed between the Expiration Date of such tender or exchange offer and such Trading Day in determining the Exchange Rate as of such Trading Day. In addition, if the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Date of any tender or exchange offer is after the 10th Trading Day immediately preceding, and including, the end of any Observation Period in respect of an exchange of Securities, references to “10” or “10th” in the preceding paragraph and this paragraph shall be deemed to be replaced, solely in respect of that exchange, with such lesser number of Trading Days as have elapsed from, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Date of such tender or exchange offer to, and including, last Trading Day of such Observation Period.

In the event that the Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries is obligated to purchase Common Shares pursuant to any such tender offer or exchange offer, but the Guarantor, or such Subsidiary, is permanently prevented by applicable law from effecting any such purchases, or all such purchases are rescinded, then the Exchange Rate shall again be adjusted to be the Exchange Rate that would then be in effect if such tender offer or exchange offer had not been made or had been made only in respect of the purchases that have been effected.

(f)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4.04 or any other provision of this Indenture or the Securities, if an Exchange Rate adjustment becomes effective on any Ex-Dividend Date and a Holder that has exchanged its Securities on or after such Ex-Dividend Date and on or prior to the related Record Date would be treated as the record holder of the Common Shares as of the related Exchange Date as described under Section 4.02(b) based on an adjusted Exchange for such Ex-Dividend Date, then, notwithstanding the Exchange Rate adjustment provisions in this Section 4.04, the Exchange Rate adjustment relating to such Ex-Dividend Date shall not be made for such exchanging Holder. Instead, such Holder shall be treated as if such Holder were the record owner of the Common Shares on an unadjusted basis and participate in the related dividend, distribution or other event giving rise to such adjustment.

(g)Poison Pill.  Whenever a Holder exchanges a Security, to the extent that the Guarantor has a rights plan in effect, the Holder exchanging such Security will receive, in addition to any Common Shares otherwise received in connection with such exchange, the rights under the rights plan unless the rights have separated from the Common Shares, in which case, and only in such case, the Exchange Rate will be adjusted at the time of separation as if the Guarantor distributed to all holders of the Common Shares, shares of Capital Stock, evidences of indebtedness, assets, property, rights, options or warrants as described in Section 4.04(c) hereof, subject to readjustment in the event of the expiration, termination or redemption of such rights.

(h)Deferral of Adjustments.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Company will not be required to adjust the Exchange Rate unless such adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least one percent; provided, however, that any such minor

‑39‑

---

 

adjustments that are not required to be made will be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment, and provided, further, that any such adjustment of less than one percent that has not been made shall be made upon the occurrence of (i) the Effective Date for any Make‑Whole Fundamental Change, (ii) on the Exchange Date for any securities (in the case of Physical Settlement) and (iii) on each VWAP Trading Day of any Observation Period (in the case of cash settlement or combination settlement).  In addition, the Company shall not account for such deferrals when determining the number of Common Shares a Holder would have held on a given day had it exchanged its Securities.  In no event will the Exchange Rate be adjusted such that the Exchange Price will be less than the par value per Common Share.

(i)Limitation on Adjustments.  Except as stated in this Section 4.04, the Company will not adjust the Exchange Rate for the issuance of Common Shares or any securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Shares or the right to purchase Common Shares or such convertible or exchangeable securities.  If, however, the application of the formulas in Sections 4.04(a) through (e) hereof would result in a decrease in the Exchange Rate, then, except to the extent of any readjustment to the Exchange Rate, no adjustment to the Exchange Rate will be made (other than as a result of a reverse share split, share combination or readjustment).

In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Exchange Rate will not be adjusted:

(1)on account of share repurchases that are not tender offers referred to in Section 4.04(e) hereof, including structured or derivative transactions, or transactions pursuant to a share repurchase program approved by the Board of Trustees or otherwise;

(2)upon the issuance of any Common Shares pursuant to any present or future plan providing for the reinvestment of dividends or interest payable on the Guarantor’s securities and the investment of additional optional amounts in Common Shares under any plan;

(3)upon the issuance of any Common Shares or options or rights to purchase those shares pursuant to any present or future employee, trustee or consultant benefit plan, program or agreement of or assumed by the Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries;

(4)upon the issuance of any Common Shares pursuant to any option, warrant, right or exercisable, exchangeable or convertible security not described in the preceding clause (3) and outstanding as of the Issue Date;

(5)for a change in the par value of the Common Shares;

(6)for accrued and unpaid interest on the Securities, if any; or

(7)for an event otherwise requiring an adjustment under the Indenture if such event is not consummated.

(j)For purposes of this Section 4.04, the number of Common Shares at any time outstanding shall not include shares held in the treasury of the Guarantor so long as the Guarantor does not pay any dividend or make any distribution on Common Shares held in the

‑40‑

---

 

treasury of the Guarantor, but shall include shares issuable in respect of scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of Common Shares.

(k)Withholding on Adjustments.  If, in connection with any adjustment to the Exchange Rate as set forth in this Section 4.04 a Holder shall be deemed for U.S. federal tax purposes to have received a distribution, the Company may set off any withholding tax it reasonably believes it is required to collect with respect to any such deemed distribution against cash payments of interest in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.04 hereof or from Common Shares and any cash payment otherwise deliverable to a Holder upon an exchange of Securities in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.03 hereof or repurchase of a Security in accordance with the provisions of Article 3 hereof.

Section 4.05Discretionary and Voluntary Adjustments.

(a)Discretionary Adjustments.  Whenever any provision of this Supplemental Indenture requires the Company to calculate the Last Reported Sale Prices, the Daily VWAPs, the Daily Exchange Values or the Daily Settlement Amounts over a span of multiple days, the Company will make appropriate adjustments to account for any adjustment to the Exchange Rate that becomes effective, or any event requiring an adjustment to the Exchange Rate where the Ex‑Dividend Date or Expiration Date of the event occurs, at any time during the period when such Last Reported Sale Prices, Daily VWAPs, Daily Exchange Values or Daily Settlement Amounts are to be calculated.

(b)Voluntary Adjustments.  To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Company is permitted to increase the Exchange Rate of the Securities by any amount for a period of at least 20 Business Days if the Board of Trustees determines that such increase would be in the Guarantor’s best interest.  The Company may also (but is not required to) increase the Exchange Rate to avoid or diminish income tax to holders of Common Shares or rights to purchase Common Shares in connection with a dividend or distribution of shares (or rights to acquire shares) or similar event.

Section 4.06Adjustment to Exchange Rate Upon Exchange in Connection with a Make‑Whole Fundamental Change.

(a)Increase in the Exchange Rate.  If a Make‑Whole Fundamental Change occurs and a Holder elects to exchange its Securities in connection with such Make‑Whole Fundamental Change, the Company shall, under certain circumstances, increase the Exchange Rate for the Securities so surrendered for exchange by a number of additional Common Shares (the “Additional Shares”), as described in this Section 4.06.  An exchange of Securities shall be deemed for these purposes to be “in connection with” a Make‑Whole Fundamental Change if the relevant Exchange Notice is received by the Exchange Agent during the period from, and including, the Effective Date of the Make‑Whole Fundamental Change up to, and including, the Close of Business on the Business Day immediately prior to the related Fundamental Change Purchase Date or, if such Make‑Whole Fundamental Change is not a Fundamental Change, the 35th Business Day immediately following the Effective Date for such Make‑Whole Fundamental Change.

‑41‑

---

 

(b)Cash Mergers.  Upon surrender of Securities for exchange in connection with a Make‑Whole Fundamental Change, the Company will, at its option, satisfy its exchange obligation by Physical Settlement, Cash Settlement or Combination Settlement, as described under Section 4.03, calculated based on the Exchange Rate as adjusted by Additional Shares.  However, if, at the effective time of such transaction, the Reference Property as described under Section 4.07 is comprised entirely of cash, then, for any exchange of Securities following the Effective Date of such Make‑Whole Fundamental Change, the exchange obligation will be calculated based solely on the Stock Price for such Make‑Whole Fundamental Change and shall, for each $1,000 principal amount of Securities exchanged, be deemed to be an amount of cash equal to (i) the Exchange Rate in effect on the applicable Exchange Date (as increased by any number of Additional Shares required by this Section 4.06) multiplied by (ii) such Stock Price.  In such event, the Company will pay such amount of cash to a exchanging Holder on the second Business Day following the applicable Exchange Date.

(c)Determining the Number of Additional Shares.  The number of Additional Shares, if any, by which the Exchange Rate will be increased for a Holder that exchanges its Securities in connection with a Make‑Whole Fundamental Change shall be determined by reference to the table attached as Schedule A hereto, based on the date on which the Make‑Whole Fundamental Change occurs or becomes effective (the “Effective Date”) and the price (the “Stock Price”) paid (or deemed paid) per Common Share in the Make‑Whole Fundamental Change.  If the holders of the Common Shares receive only cash in a Make‑Whole Fundamental Change described in clause (2) of the definition of Fundamental Change, the Stock Price shall be the cash amount paid per share.  Otherwise, the Stock Price shall be the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Shares over the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the Effective Date of the Make‑Whole Fundamental Change.

(d)Interpolation and Limits.  The exact Stock Prices and Effective Dates may not be set forth in the table in Schedule A, in which case:

(1)If the Stock Price is between two Stock Prices in the table or the Effective Date is between two Effective Dates in the table, the number of Additional Shares shall be determined by a straight‑line interpolation between the number of Additional Shares set forth for the higher and lower Stock Prices and the earlier and later Effective Dates, as applicable, based on a 365‑day or 366-day year, as the case may be.

(2)If the Stock Price is greater than $29.00 per share (subject to adjustment in the same manner as the Stock Prices set forth in the column headings of the table in Schedule A pursuant to the last paragraph of this Section 4.06(d)), the Exchange Rate shall not be increased.

(3)If the Stock Price is less than $22.67 per share (subject to adjustments in the same manner as the Stock Prices set forth in the column headings of the table in Schedule A pursuant to the last paragraph of this Section 4.06(d)), the Exchange Rate shall not be increased.

‑42‑

---

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event will the Exchange Rate be increased on account of a Make‑Whole Fundamental Change to exceed 44.1111 Common Shares per $1,000 principal amount of Securities, subject to adjustments in the same manner as the Exchange Rate is required to be adjusted as set forth in Section 4.04 hereof.

The Stock Prices set forth in the column headings of the table in Schedule A hereto shall be adjusted as of any date on which the Exchange Rate of the Securities is otherwise required to be adjusted.  The adjusted Stock Prices shall equal the Stock Prices applicable immediately prior to such adjustment, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Exchange Rate immediately prior to such adjustment giving rise to the Stock Price adjustment and the denominator of which is the Exchange Rate as so adjusted.  The number of Additional Shares set forth in such table shall be adjusted in the same manner and at the same time as the Exchange Rate is required to be adjusted as set forth in Section 4.04.

(e)Notices.  The Company shall notify the Holders, the Trustee and the Exchange Agent (if other than the Trustee) of the Effective Date of any Make‑Whole Fundamental Change and issue a press release announcing such Effective Date no later than five Business Days after such Effective Date.

Section 4.07Effect of Recapitalization, Reclassification, Consolidation, Merger or Sale.

(a)Reorganization Events.  In the case of:

(1)any recapitalization, reclassification or change of the Common Shares (other than a change in par value, or from par value to no par value, or from no par value to par value, or as a result of a split, subdivision or combination for which an adjustment was made pursuant to Section 4.04(a) hereof);

(2)any consolidation, merger or combination involving the Guarantor;

(3)any sale, lease or other transfer to a third party of all or substantially all of the consolidated assets of the Guarantor and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole; or

(4)any statutory share exchange;

and, in each case, as a result of which the Common Shares would be converted into, or exchanged for, stock, other securities, other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) (any such event, a “Reorganization Event”) then the Company or the successor or purchasing entity, as the case may be, will execute with the Trustee a supplemental indenture providing that, at the effective time of such Reorganization Event, the right to exchange each $1,000 principal amount of Securities for a number of Common Shares equal to the applicable Exchange Rate will be changed into a right to exchange such principal amount of Securities for the kind and amount of shares of stock, other securities or other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) that a holder of a number of Common Shares equal to the Exchange Rate immediately prior to such Reorganization Event would have owned or been entitled to receive (any such stock, other securities, other property or assets, “Reference

‑43‑

---

 

Property”) upon such Reorganization Event. However, at and after the effective time of such Reorganization Event:

(A)the Company shall continue to have the right to determine the form of consideration to be paid or delivered, as the case may be, upon exchange of Securities in accordance with Section 4.03; and

(B)(i) any amount payable in cash upon exchange of the Securities in accordance with Section 4.03 shall continue to be payable in cash, (ii) any Common Shares that the Company would have been required to deliver upon exchange of the Securities in accordance with Section 4.03 shall instead be deliverable in the type and amount of Reference Property that a holder of that number of Common Shares would have received in such Reorganization Event and (iii) the Daily VWAP shall be calculated based on the value of a unit of Reference Property that a holder of one Common Share would have received in such Reorganization Event; provided, however, that if the holders of Common Shares receive only cash in such Reorganization Event, then for all exchanges that occur after the effective date of such Reorganization Event (x) the consideration due upon exchange of each $1,000 principal aggregate amount of Securities shall be solely cash in an amount equal to the Exchange Rate in effect on the Exchange Date (as may be increased by any Additional Shares pursuant to Section 4.06), multiplied by the price paid per Common Share in such Reorganization Event and (y) settlement will occur on the second Business Day immediately following the Exchange Date.

If the Reorganization Event causes the Common Shares to be converted into, or exchanged for, the right to receive more than a single type of consideration (determined based in part upon any form of shareholder election), the amount and type of Reference Property that a holder of Common Shares would have been entitled to receive in such reorganization event (and for which the Securities will be exchangeable) will be deemed to be based on (i) the weighted average of the types and amounts of consideration received by the holders of the Common Shares that affirmatively make such an election and (ii) if no holders of Common Shares affirmatively make such an election, the types and amounts of consideration actually received by the holders of Common Shares.  The Company shall notify, in writing, the Holders, the Trustee and the Exchange Agent (if other than the Trustee) of the weighted average as soon as practicable after such determination is made.

The Guarantor shall not become a party to any Reorganization Event unless its terms are consistent with this Section 4.07.  Such supplemental indenture described in the second immediately preceding paragraph shall provide for adjustments which shall be as nearly equivalent to the adjustments provided for in this Article 4 in the judgment of the Board of Trustees or the board of directors of the successor person.  If, in the case of any such Reorganization Event, the Reference Property receivable thereupon by a holder of Common Shares includes shares of stock, securities or other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) of a person other than the successor or purchasing person, as the case may be, in such Reorganization Event, then such other entity, if it is party to such transaction, will also execute such supplemental indenture, and each such supplemental indenture will contain

‑44‑

---

 

such additional provisions to protect the interest of the Holders including the right of the Holders to require us to purchase their Securities upon a Fundamental Change pursuant to Section 3.02, as the Board of Trustees reasonably considers necessary by reason of the foregoing.

(b)Notice of Supplemental Indentures.  The Company shall cause notice of the execution of such supplemental indenture to be mailed to each Holder, at the address of such Holder as it appears on the register of the Securities maintained by the Security Registrar, within 20 days after execution thereof.  Failure to deliver such notice shall not affect the legality or validity of such supplemental indenture.  The above provisions of this Section 4.07 shall similarly apply to successive Reorganization Events.

(c)If the Securities become exchangeable into Reference Property, the Company shall notify the Trustee and issue a press release containing the relevant information, disclose the relevant information in a Current Report on Form 8-K or post such information on the Company’s website.

(d)In connection with any Reorganization Event, the DTA will subject to adjustment as described in clause (1), clause (2) or clause (3) below, as the case may be.

(1)In the case of a Reorganization Event in which the Reference Property is composed entirely of shares of common stock (the “Reorganization Event Common Stock”), the DTA at and after the effective time of such Reorganization Event will be equal to (x) the DTA immediately prior to the effective time of such Reorganization Event, divided by (y) the number of shares of Reorganization Event Common Stock that a holder of one Common Share would receive in such Reorganization Event (such quotient rounded down to nearest cent).

(2)In the case of a Reorganization Event in which the Reference Property is composed in part of shares of Reorganization Event Common Stock, the DTA at and after the effective time of such Reorganization Event will be equal to (x) the DTA immediately prior to the effective time of such Reorganization Event, multiplied by (y) the Valuation Percentage for such Reorganization Event (such quotient rounded down to nearest cent).

(3)For the avoidance of doubt, in the case of a Reorganization Event in which the Reference Property is composed entirely of consideration other than shares of common stock, the DTA at and after the effective time of such Reorganization Event will be equal to zero.

(e)For purposes of subsection (d) of this Section 4.07, the following terms shall have the following meanings:

(1)The “Valuation Percentage” for any Reorganization Event shall be equal to (x) the arithmetic average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of one share of such Reorganization Event Common Stock over the relevant Reorganization Event Valuation Period (determined as if references to “Common Shares” in the definition of “Last Reported Sale Price” were references to the “Reorganization Event Common Stock” for such Reorganization Event), divided by (y) the arithmetic average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of one Common Share over the relevant Reorganization Event Valuation Period.

‑45‑

---

 

(2)The “Reorganization Event Valuation Period” for any Reorganization Event means the five consecutive Trading Day period immediately preceding, but excluding, the effective date for such Reorganization Event.

Section 4.08Stock Issued Upon Exchange.

(a)Reservation of Shares.  To the extent necessary to satisfy the Company’s obligations under the Indenture, prior to issuing any Common Shares, the Guarantor will reserve out of its authorized but unissued Common Shares a sufficient number of Common Shares to permit the exchange of the Securities.

(b)Certain other Covenants.  The Guarantor covenants that all Common Shares that may be issued upon exchange of Securities shall be newly issued shares or treasury shares, shall be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non‑assessable and shall be free from preemptive rights and free from any tax, lien or charge (other than those created by the Holder or due to a change in registered owner).

The Guarantor shall list or cause to have quoted any Common Shares to be issued upon exchange of Securities on each national securities exchange or over‑the‑counter or other domestic market on which the Common Shares are then listed or quoted.

Section 4.09Responsibility of Trustee.  The Trustee and any Exchange Agent shall not at any time be under any duty or responsibility to any Holder of Securities to determine or calculate the Exchange Rate, to determine whether any facts exist which may require any adjustment of the Exchange Rate, or to confirm the accuracy of any such adjustment when made or the appropriateness of the method employed, or herein or in any supplemental indenture provided to be employed, in making the same.  The Trustee and any other Exchange Agent shall not be accountable with respect to the validity or value (or the kind or amount) of any Common Shares or of any other securities or property that may at any time be issued or delivered upon the exchange of any Securities; and the Trustee and the Exchange Agent make no representations with respect thereto.  Neither the Trustee nor any Exchange Agent shall be responsible for any failure of the Company or the Guarantor to issue, transfer or deliver any Common Shares or stock certificates or other securities or property or cash upon the surrender of any Securities for the purpose of exchange or to comply with any of the duties, responsibilities or covenants of the Company or the Guarantor contained in this Article 4.  The rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee, including without limitation its right to be compensated, reimbursed, and indemnified, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder, including its capacity as Exchange Agent.

Section 4.10Notice to Holders.

(a)Notice to Holders Prior to Certain Actions.  The Company shall deliver notices of the events specified below at the times specified below and containing the information specified below unless, in each case, (i) pursuant to the Indenture, the Company is already required to deliver notice of such event containing at least the information specified below at an earlier time or, (ii) the Company, at the time it is required to deliver a notice, does not have knowledge of all of the information required to be included in such notice, in which case, the

‑46‑

Company shall (A) deliver notice at such time containing only the information that it has knowledge of at such time (if it has knowledge of any such information at such time), and (B) promptly upon obtaining knowledge of any such information not already included in a notice delivered by the Company, deliver notice to each Holder containing such information.  In each case, the failure by the Company to give such notice, or any defect therein, shall not affect the legality or validity of such event.

(1)Issuances, Distributions, and Dividends and Distributions.  If the Guarantor (A) announces any issuance of any rights, options or warrants that would require an adjustment in the Exchange Rate pursuant to Section 4.04(b) hereof; (B) authorizes any distribution that would require an adjustment in the Exchange Rate pursuant to Section 4.04(c) hereof (including any separation of rights from the Common Shares described in Section 4.04(g)hereof); or (C) announces any dividend or distribution that would require an adjustment in the Exchange Rate pursuant to Section 4.04(d) hereof, then the Company shall deliver to the Holders, as promptly as possible, but in any event at least 15 calendar days prior to the applicable Ex‑Dividend Date or record date, notice describing such issuance, distribution, dividend or distribution, as the case may be, and stating the expected Ex‑Dividend Date and record date for such issuance, distribution, dividend or distribution, as the case may be.  In addition, the Company shall deliver to the Holders notice if the consideration included in such issuance, distribution, dividend or distribution, or the Ex‑Dividend Date or record date of such issuance, distribution, dividend or distribution, as the case may be, changes.

(2)Voluntary Increases.  If the Company increases the Exchange Rate pursuant to Section 4.05(b), the Company shall deliver notice to the Holders at least 15 calendar days prior to the date on which such increase will become effective, which notice shall state the date on which such increase will become effective and the amount by which the Exchange Rate will be increased.

(3)Dissolutions, Liquidations and Winding‑Ups.  If there is a voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding‑up of the Guarantor, the Company shall deliver notice to the Holders as promptly as possible, but in any event at least 15 calendar days prior to the earlier of (i) the date on which such dissolution, liquidation or winding‑up, as the case may be, is expected to become effective or occur, and (ii) the date as of which it is expected that holders of Common Shares of record shall be entitled to exchange their Common Shares for securities or other property deliverable upon such dissolution, liquidation or winding‑up, as the case may be, which notice shall state the expected effective date and record date for such event, as applicable, and the amount and kind of property that a holder of one Common Share is expected to be entitled, or may elect, to receive in such event.  The Company shall deliver an additional notice to holders, as promptly as practicable, whenever the expected effective date or record date, as applicable, or the amount and kind of property that a holder of one Common Share is expect to be entitled to receive in such event, changes.

(b)Notices After Certain Actions and Events.  Whenever an adjustment to the Exchange Rate becomes effective pursuant to Sections 4.04, 4.05 or 4.06 hereof, the Company will (i) file with the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that such adjustment has become effective, the Exchange Rate, and the manner in which the adjustment was computed and (ii) deliver notice to the Holders stating that such adjustment has become effective and the

‑47‑

Exchange Rate or exchange privilege as adjusted.  Failure to give any such notice, or any defect therein, shall not affect the validity of any such adjustment.

Section 5.04Appointments to Fill Vacancies in Trustee’s Office.  The Company, whenever necessary to avoid or fill a vacancy in the office of Trustee, will appoint, in the manner provided in Section 608 of the Base Indenture, a Trustee, so that there shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder.

(a)If the Company shall appoint a Paying Agent other than the Trustee, the Company will cause such Paying Agent to execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which such agent shall agree with the Trustee, subject to the provisions of this Section 5.05:

Section 5.08Supplementary Interest Notice.  If Supplementary Interest is payable by the Company pursuant to Section 6.04 hereof, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate to that effect stating (a) the amount of such Supplementary Interest that is payable and (b) the date on which such interest is payable.  Unless and until a Responsible Officer of the Trustee receives at the Corporate Trust Office such a certificate, the Trustee may assume without inquiry that no such Supplementary Interest is payable.  If the Company has paid Supplementary Interest directly to the Persons entitled to them, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate setting forth the particulars of such payment.

Section 5.09Covenant to Take Certain Actions.  Before taking any action which would cause an adjustment to the Exchange Rate such that the Exchange Price per Common Share issuable upon exchange of the Securities would be less than the par value of the Common Shares, the Guarantor shall take all trust actions that may, in the opinion of its counsel, be necessary so it may validly and legally issue Common Shares at such adjusted Exchange Rate.

(g)failure by the Company, the Guarantor or any Subsidiary of the Company or the Guarantor to pay beyond any applicable grace period, or the acceleration of, indebtedness of the Company, the Guarantor or such Subsidiary in an aggregate amount greater than $50,000,000 (or its foreign currency equivalent at the time);

Section 6.03Acceleration; Rescission and Annulment.  If one or more Events of Default shall have occurred and be continuing (whatever the reason for such Event of Default and whether it shall be voluntary or involuntary or be effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body), then, and in each and every such case (other than an Event of Default specified in Section 6.02(i) or Section 6.02(j) with respect to the Company or the Guarantor (and not solely with respect to a Significant Subsidiary of the Company or the Guarantor)), unless the principal of all of the Securities shall have already become due and payable, either the Trustee or the holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then Outstanding, by notice in writing to the Company (and to the Trustee if given by the Holders), may declare 100% of the principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all the Securities to be due and payable immediately.  If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.02(i) or Section 6.02(j) with respect to the Company or the Guarantor (and not solely with respect to a Significant Subsidiary of the Company or the Guarantor) occurs and is continuing, the principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all Securities shall be immediately due and payable.

Section 6.04Supplementary Interest.

(a)Notwithstanding any provisions of the Indenture to the contrary, if the Company so elects, the sole remedy for an Event of Default relating to the Guarantor’s failure to comply with Section 5.06(a) hereof (a “Reporting Event of Default”), will for the first 360 days  after the occurrence of such Event of Default consist exclusively of the right to receive additional interest on the Securities at a rate per year equal to (i) 0.25% per annum of the Outstanding principal amount of the Securities for the first 180 days of the 360‑day period in which such Event of Default is continuing beginning on, and including, the date on which such an Event of Default first occurs and (ii) 0.50% per annum of the Outstanding principal amount of the Securities for the last 180 days of such 360‑day period as long as such Event of Default is continuing (subject to Section 6.04(c), in addition to any other additional interest that may accrue pursuant to Section 6.04(b)).

If the Company so elects, such additional interest will be payable in the same manner and on the same dates as the stated interest payable on the Securities.  On the 361st day after such Event of Default (if the Reporting Event of Default is not cured or waived prior to

‑53‑

---

 

such 361st day), the Securities will be subject to acceleration pursuant to Section 6.03.  The provisions of this Section 6.04 will not affect the rights of Holders of Securities in the event of the occurrence of any Event of Default that is not a Reporting Event of Default.  In the event the Company does not elect to pay the additional interest following a Reporting Event of Default in accordance with this Section 6.04(a) or the Company elected to make such payment but does not pay the additional interest when due, the Securities will be immediately subject to acceleration as provided in Section 6.03.

In order to elect to pay the additional interest as the sole remedy during the first 360 days after the occurrence of a Reporting Event of Default, the Company must notify all Holders of Securities, the Trustee and the Paying Agent of such election prior to the beginning of such 360‑day period.  Upon the Company’s failure to timely give such notice, the Securities will be immediately subject to acceleration as provided in Section 6.03.

(b)If, at any time during the six-month period beginning on, and including, the date that is six months after the last date of original issuance of the Securities (including any Securities issued pursuant to the Initial Purchasers’ option to purchase additional Securities), the Guarantor fails to timely file any document or report that it is required to file with the Commission pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, as applicable (after giving effect to all applicable grace periods thereunder and other than current reports on Form 8-K), or the Common Shares issuable upon exchange of the Securities are not otherwise freely tradable by Holders other than the Guarantor’s Affiliates or Holders that were the Guarantor’s Affiliates at any time during the three months preceding the sale (as a result of restrictions pursuant to U.S. securities laws), the Company shall pay additional interest on the Securities.  Such additional interest shall accrue on the Securities at the rate of 0.50% per annum of the principal amount of the Securities Outstanding for each day during such period for which the Guarantor’s failure to file has occurred and is continuing or the Common Shares issuable upon exchange of the Securities are not otherwise freely tradable by Holders other than the Guarantor’s Affiliates or Holders that have been the Guarantor’s Affiliates at any time during the three months preceding the sale. As used in this Section 6.04(b), documents or reports that the Guarantor is required to “file” with the Commission pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act does not include documents or reports that the Guarantor “furnishes” to the Commission pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act.

In addition, if, and for so long as, the Restrictive Legend on the Securities has not been removed, the Securities are assigned a restricted CUSIP or the Securities or the Common Shares issuable upon exchange of the Securities are not otherwise freely tradable by Holders other than the Company’s or the Guarantor’s Affiliates or Holders that were the Company’s or the Guarantor’s Affiliates at any time during the three months preceding the sale (without restrictions pursuant to U.S. securities laws or the terms of the Indenture or the Securities) as of the 370th day after the last date of original issuance of the Securities, the Company shall pay additional interest on the Securities at a rate equal to 0.50% per annum of the principal amount of Securities Outstanding until the Restrictive Legend has been removed from the Securities, the Securities are assigned an unrestricted CUSIP and the Securities and the Common Shares issuable upon exchange of the Securities are freely tradable by Holders other than the Company’s or the Guarantor’s Affiliates (or Holders that were the Company’s or the Guarantor’s Affiliates at any time during the three months preceding the sale); provided, however, that no

‑54‑

---

 

additional interest shall accrue or be owed until the fifth Business Day following written notification to the Company by the Trustee or any Holders requesting that the Company comply with its obligations under this paragraph (which notice may be given at any time after the 329th day after the last date of original issuance of the Securities).

Additional interest pursuant to this Section 6.04(b) will be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date following accrual in the same manner as regular interest on the Securities and, subject to Section 6.04(c), will be in addition to any other additional interest that may accrue pursuant to Section 6.04(a).

(c)In no event will the additional interest payable pursuant to Section 6.04(a) together with the additional interest payable pursuant to Section 6.04(b) (collectively, the “Supplementary Interest”) accrue at a rate in excess of 0.50% per annum pursuant to the Indenture, regardless of the number of events or circumstances giving rise to the requirement to pay such additional interest.

Section 6.05Waiver of Past Defaults.  The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then Outstanding, by written notice to the Company and to the Trustee, may waive (including by way of consents obtained in connection with a repurchase of, or tender or exchange offer for, the Securities) all past Defaults or Events of Default with respect to the Securities (other than a Default or an Event of Default resulting from nonpayment of principal (including any Fundamental Change Purchase Price, if applicable) or interest, a failure to deliver consideration due upon exchange or any other provisions that require the consent of each affected Holder to amend) and rescind any such acceleration with respect to the Securities and its consequences if (i) rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction and (ii) all existing Events of Default, other than the nonpayment of the principal of, and interest on, the Securities that have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration have been cured or waived.

Section 6.06Control by Majority.  At any time, the Holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the then Outstanding Securities may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or for exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee.  However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or the Indenture or, subject to the Trustee’s duties under Article 6 of the Base Indenture, that the Trustee determines to be unduly prejudicial to the rights of a Holder or to the Trustee, or that would potentially involve the Trustee in personal liability unless the Trustee is offered indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense to the Trustee that may result from the Trustee’s instituting such proceeding as the Trustee.  Prior to taking any action hereunder, the Trustee will be entitled to indemnification reasonably satisfactory to it against all losses and expenses caused by taking or not taking such action.

Section 6.07Limitation on Suits.  Subject to Section 6.08 hereof, no Holder may pursue a remedy with respect to the Indenture or the Securities unless:

(a)such Holder has previously delivered to the Trustee written notice that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;

‑55‑

---

 

(b)the Holders of at least 25% of the aggregate principal amount of the then Outstanding Securities deliver to the Trustee a written request that the Trustee pursue a remedy with respect to such Event of Default;

(c)such Holder or Holders have offered and, if requested, provided to the Trustee indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss, liability or other expense of compliance with such written request;

(d)the Trustee has not complied with such written request within 60 days after receipt of such written request and offer of indemnity; and

(e)during such 60‑day period, the Holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the then Outstanding Securities did not deliver to the Trustee a direction inconsistent with such written request.

A Holder may not use the Indenture to prejudice the rights of any other Holder or to obtain a preference or priority over any other Holder, it being understood that the Trustee does not have any affirmative duty to ascertain whether any usage of the Indenture by a Holder is unduly prejudicial to such other Holders.

Section 6.08Rights of Holders to Receive Payment and to Exchange.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary elsewhere in the Indenture, the right of any Holder to receive payment of the principal of, interest on, Fundamental Change Purchase Price for, its Securities, on or after the respective due date, and to exchange its Securities and receive delivery of the consideration due with respect to such Securities in accordance with Article 4 hereof, or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment or exchange rights, will not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder and will not be subject to the requirements of Section 6.07 hereof.

Section 6.09Collection of Indebtedness; Suit for Enforcement by Trustee.  If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.02(a), 6.02(b) or 6.02(c) hereof occurs and is continuing, the Trustee is authorized to recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Company for the whole amount of principal of, interest on, Fundamental Change Purchase Price for, and the Common Shares and any cash amount in respect of fractional Common Shares due upon the exchange of, the Securities, as the case may be, and such further amount as is sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, as well as any other amounts that may be due under Section 606 of the Base Indenture.

Section 6.10Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of Securities.  All rights of action and claims under the Indenture or the Securities may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Securities or the production thereof in any proceeding relating thereto, and any such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment shall, after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the Holders in respect of which such judgment has been recovered.

‑56‑

Section 6.11Trustee May File Proofs of Claim.  The Trustee is authorized to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable to have the claims of the Trustee and the Holders allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Company, its creditors or its property and, unless prohibited by law or applicable regulations, will be entitled to collect, receive and distribute any money or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims, and any custodian in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee, and, in the event that the Trustee consents to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 606 of the Base Indenture.  To the extent that the payment of any such compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 606 of the Base Indenture out of the estate in any such proceeding, will be denied for any reason, payment of the same will be secured by a lien on, and is paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, money, securities and other properties that the Holders may be entitled to receive in such proceeding, whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or arrangement or otherwise.  Nothing herein contained will be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to, or to accept or to adopt on behalf of any Holder, any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Securities or the rights of any Holder, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.

Section 6.12Restoration of Rights and Remedies.  If the Trustee or any Holder has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under the Indenture and such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every such case, subject to any determination in such proceeding, the Company, the Trustee and the Holders shall be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and the Holders shall continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted.

Section 6.13Rights and Remedies Cumulative.  Except as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities in Section 306 of the Base Indenture, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise.  The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

Section 6.14Delay or Omission Not a Waiver.  No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein.  Every right and remedy given by this Article 6 or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient by the Trustee (subject to the limitations contained in the Indenture) or by the Holders, as the case may be.

Section 6.15Priorities.  If the Trustee collects any money pursuant to this Article 6, it will pay out the money in the following order:

FIRST:  to the Trustee, its agents and attorneys for amounts due under Section 606 of the Base Indenture, including payment of all compensation, expenses and liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Trustee and the costs and expenses of collection;

SECOND:  to the Holders, for any amounts due and unpaid on the principal of, accrued and unpaid interest on, Fundamental Change Purchase Price for, and any cash due upon exchange of, any Security, without preference or priority of any kind, according to such amounts due and payable on all of the Securities; and

THIRD:  the balance, if any, to the Company or to such other party as a court of competent jurisdiction directs.

The Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to the Holders pursuant to this Section 6.15.  If the Trustee so fixes a record date and a payment date, at least 15 days prior to such record date, the Company will deliver to each Holder and the Trustee a written notice, which notice will state such record date, such payment date and the amount of such payment.

Section 6.16Undertaking for Costs.  All parties to the Indenture agree, and each Holder, by such Holder’s acceptance of a Security, shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under the Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant; provided, however, that the provisions of this Section 6.16 shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Trustee, to any suit instituted by any Holder, or group of Holders, holding in the aggregate more than 10% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then Outstanding, or to any suit instituted by any Holder for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on, or Fundamental Change Purchase Price for, any Security on or after the due date expressed or provided for in the Indenture or to any suit for the enforcement of the right to exchange any Security in accordance with the provisions of Article 4 hereof.

Section 6.17Waiver of Stay, Extension and Usury Laws.  Each of the Company and the Guarantor covenants that, to the extent that it may lawfully do so, it will 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 the Indenture; and each of the Company and the Guarantor, to the extent that it may lawfully do so, hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it will not, by resort to any such law, hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will instead suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law has been enacted.

Section 6.18Notices from the Trustee.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Base Indenture, including Section 601 of the Base Indenture, whenever a Default occurs and is continuing and is known to the Trustee, the Trustee must deliver notice of such Default to the Holders within 90 days after the date on which such Default first occurred.  Except in the case of a Default in the payment of the principal of, interest on, or Fundamental Change Purchase Price for, any Security or of a Default in the delivery of the consideration due upon exchange of a Security, the Trustee shall be protected in withholding such notice if and so long as the board of directors, the executive committee or a trust committee of directors and/or Responsible Officers of the Trustee in good faith determine that the withholding of such notice is in the interests of the Holders.

ARTICLE 7

SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE

Section 7.01Inapplicability of Provisions of Base Indenture; Satisfaction and Discharge of the Indenture.  Article 14 of the Base Indenture shall not apply with respect to the Securities.  The provisions set forth in this Article 7 shall, with respect to the Securities, supersede in their entirety Article 4 of the Base Indenture.

When (a) the Company shall deliver to the Security Registrar for cancellation all Securities theretofore authenticated (other than any Securities that have been destroyed, lost or stolen and in lieu of or in substitution for which other Securities shall have been authenticated and delivered) and not theretofore canceled, or (b) all the Securities not theretofore canceled or delivered to the Trustee for cancellation shall have become due and payable (whether on the Maturity Date, on any Fundamental Change Purchase Date, upon exchange or otherwise) and the Company shall deposit with the Trustee, in trust, or deliver to the Holders, as applicable, an amount of cash or, solely to settle amounts due with respect to outstanding exchanges, cash and/or Common Shares, as applicable, sufficient to pay all amounts due on all of such Securities (other than any Securities that shall have been mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen and in lieu of or in substitution for which other Securities shall have been authenticated and delivered) not theretofore canceled or delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, including principal and interest due, accompanied, except in the event the Securities are due and payable solely in cash at the Maturity Date or upon an earlier Fundamental Change Purchase Date, by a verification report as to the sufficiency of the deposited amount from an independent certified accountant or other financial professional reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, and if the Company shall also pay or cause to be paid all other sums payable hereunder by the Company, then the Indenture shall cease to be of further effect with respect to the Securities (except as to (i) rights hereunder of Holders to receive all amounts owing upon the Securities and the other rights, duties and obligations of Holders, as beneficiaries hereof with respect to the amounts, if any, so deposited with the Trustee and (ii) the rights, obligations and immunities of the Trustee hereunder), and the Trustee, on written demand of the Company accompanied by an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel and at the cost and expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture with respect to the Securities; the Company, however, hereby agrees to reimburse the Trustee for any costs or expenses thereafter reasonably and properly incurred by the Trustee, including the fees and

‑59‑

expenses of its counsel, and to compensate the Trustee for any services thereafter reasonably and properly rendered by the Trustee in connection with the Indenture or the Securities.

Section 7.02Deposited Monies to Be Held in Trust by Trustee.  Subject to Section 7.04 hereof, all monies and Common Shares deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 7.01 hereof shall be held in trust for the sole benefit of the Holders of the Securities, and such monies and Common Shares shall be applied by the Trustee to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company if acting as its own Paying Agent), to the Holders of the particular Securities for the payment or settlement of which such monies or Common Shares have been deposited with the Trustee, of all sums or amounts due and to become due thereon for principal and interest, if any.

Section 7.03Paying Agent to Repay Monies Held.  Upon the satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture with respect to the Securities, all monies and Common Shares then held by any Paying Agent (if other than the Trustee) shall, upon written request of the Company, be repaid to it or paid to the Trustee, and thereupon such Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such monies and Common Shares.

Section 7.04Return of Unclaimed Monies.  Subject to the requirements of applicable law, any monies and Common Shares deposited with or paid to the Trustee for payment of the principal of or interest, if any, on the Securities or for settlement of outstanding exchanges and not applied but remaining unclaimed by the Holders of the Securities for two years after the date upon which the principal of or interest, if any, on such Securities or the Settlement Amount, as the case may be, shall have become due and payable, shall be repaid to the Company by the Trustee on demand, and all liability of the Trustee shall thereupon cease with respect to such monies and Common Shares; and the Holder shall thereafter look only to the Company for any payment or delivery that such Holder may be entitled to collect unless an applicable abandoned property law designates another Person.

Section 7.05Reinstatement.  If the Trustee or the Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or Common Shares in accordance with Section 7.02 by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, the Company’s obligations under the Indenture and the Securities shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 7.01 until such time as the Trustee or the Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money and Common Shares in accordance with Section 7.02; provided, however, that if the Company makes any payment of interest on, principal of or Settlement Amount in respect of any Security following the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Securities to receive such payment from the money or Common Shares held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

As provided in and subject to the provisions of the Indenture, upon the occurrence of a Fundamental Change, the Holder of this Security will have the right, at such Holder’s option, to require the Company to purchase this Security, or any portion of this Security such that the principal amount of this Security that is not purchased equals $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof, on the Fundamental Change Purchase Date at a price equal to the Fundamental Change Purchase Price.

As provided in and subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the Holder hereof has the right to exchange this Security or a portion of this Security at the applicable Exchange Rate, (1) prior to the Close of Business on the Business Day immediately preceding August 1, 2024, only upon satisfaction of certain conditions and, (2) on or after August 1, 2024, at its option at any time prior to the Close of Business on the second Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding the Maturity Date, such that the principal amount of this Security that is not exchanged equals $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof, for cash, Common Shares or a combination of cash and Common Shares, at the Company’s election, and any cash payment in lieu of fractional shares determined in accordance with Article 4 of the Supplemental Indenture.

As provided in and subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the Holder of this Security shall not have the right to institute any proceeding with respect to the Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy thereunder, unless such Holder shall have previously given the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the Security, the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding shall have made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default as Trustee and offered the Trustee indemnity, and the Trustee shall not have received from the Holders of a majority in principal amount of Securities at the time Outstanding a direction inconsistent with such request, and shall have failed to institute any such proceeding, for 60 days after receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity.  The foregoing shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Holder of this Security for the enforcement of any payment of principal hereof or interest hereon, any payment of the Fundamental Change Purchase Price or amounts due upon exchange on or after the respective due dates expressed herein.
