16

(a) On any Business Day during the period beginning on, and including, the Business Day immediately following the Issue Date to, but excluding, the second Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding the Scheduled Mandatory Settlement Date or, if earlier, the second Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding any Early Mandatory Settlement Date or any Merger Redemption Settlement Date and also excluding the Business Day immediately preceding any Installment Payment Date ( provided that the right to separate the Units shall resume after such Business Day), a Holder of a Unit may separate such Unit into its constituent Purchase Contract and Note (each such separated Purchase Contract and separated Note, a “ Separate Purchase Contract ” and “ Separate Note ,” respectively), which will thereafter trade under their respective CUSIP numbers (459506 119) and (459506 AF8), and that Unit will cease to exist. In order to cause the separation of a Global Unit into its component parts, a Beneficial Holder must comply with the applicable procedures of the Depositary. Following a valid exercise of separation rights by a Holder of Global Units, the Purchase Contract Agent or Trustee, as applicable, shall register (i) a decrease in the number of Units represented by the Global Unit and the number of Purchase Contracts and Notes represented by the Component Purchase Contract and the Component Note attached to the Global Unit as Attachments 3 and 4, respectively, as set forth in Schedule A to each such attachment, and (ii) a corresponding increase in the number of Purchase Contracts and Notes represented by the Global Purchase Contract and the Global Note, respectively. If, however, such Unit is in the form of a Definitive Security in accordance with Section 3.09, the Holder thereof must deliver to the Purchase Contract Agent such Unit, together with a separation notice, in the form set forth in Attachment 1 to the form of Unit attached hereto as Exhibit A. Upon the receipt of such separation notice, the Company shall promptly cause delivery, in accordance with the delivery instructions set forth in such separation notice, of one Separate Purchase Contract and one Separate Note for each such Unit. Separate Purchase Contracts and Separate Notes will be transferable independently from each other.

(b) Holders which elect to separate the Note and related Purchase Contract in accordance with this Section 2.03 shall be responsible for any fees or expenses payable in connection with such separation, and neither the Company, the Purchase Contract Agent nor the Trustee shall be liable for any such fees or expenses.

Following a valid exercise of recreation rights by a Holder of Global Notes and Global Purchase Contracts, the Purchase Contract Agent or Trustee, as applicable, shall register (i) an increase in the number of Units represented by the Global Unit and the number of Purchase Contracts and Notes represented by the Component Purchase Contract and the Component Note attached to the Global Unit as Attachments 3 and 4, respectively, as set forth in Schedule A to each such attachment, and (ii) a corresponding decrease in the number of Purchase Contracts and Notes represented by the Global Purchase Contract and Global Note, respectively.

Each Unit was initially issued for a purchase price of $50.00 (before underwriting discounts and commissions), which represented an issue price of $8.45436 for the Note contained in each Unit and an issue price of $41.54564 for the Purchase Contract contained in each Unit.

Section 3.02. Rights and Obligations Evidenced by the Equity-Linked Securities . Each Equity-Linked Security shall evidence the number of Units or Separate Purchase Contracts, as the case may be, specified therein, with (a) each such Unit representing the rights and obligations of the Holder thereof and of the Company under one Purchase Contract, and the rights and obligations of the Holder thereof and of the Company under one Note, and (b) each such Separate Purchase Contract representing the rights and obligations of the Holder thereof and of the Company under one Separate Purchase Contract. In the case of a Unit, the Holder of such Unit shall, for all purposes hereunder and under the Indenture, be deemed to be the Holder of the Note and Purchase Contract that are components of such Unit.

Prior to the close of business on the Determination Date with respect to any Purchase Contract (whether such Purchase Contract is held as a component of a Unit or as a Separate Purchase Contract), the shares of Common Stock underlying such Purchase Contract shall not be outstanding, and such Purchase Contract shall not entitle the Holder thereof to any of the rights of a holder of Common Stock, including, without limitation, the right to vote or receive any dividends or other payments or to consent or to receive notice as a shareholder in respect of the meetings of shareholders or for the election of directors for any other matter, or any other rights whatsoever as a shareholder of the Company.

Section 3.03. Execution, Authentication, Delivery and Dating . Upon the execution and delivery of this Agreement, and at any time and from time to time thereafter, the Company may deliver Equity-Linked Securities executed by the Company and the Purchase Contract Agent as attorney-in-fact for the Holders of Purchase Contracts from time to time (in the case of Purchase Contracts), to the Purchase Contract Agent and Trustee (if applicable) for authentication on behalf of the Holders and delivery, together with an Issuer Order for authentication of such Equity-Linked Securities, and the Purchase Contract Agent and Trustee (if applicable) in accordance with such Issuer Order shall authenticate on behalf of the Holders and deliver such Equity-Linked Securities.

The Equity-Linked Securities shall be executed on behalf of the Company by any authorized officer of the Company and, in the case of the Purchase Contracts, shall be executed on behalf of the Holders by any authorized officer of the Purchase Contract Agent as attorney-in-fact for the Holders of Purchase Contracts from time to time. The signature of any such officer on the Equity-Linked Securities may be manual or facsimile.

18

Equity-Linked Securities bearing the manual or facsimile signature of an individual who was at any time the proper officer of the Company or, in the case of the Purchase Contracts, the Purchase Contract Agent, shall bind the Company and the Holders of Purchase Contracts, as the case may be, notwithstanding that such individual has ceased to hold such offices prior to the authentication and delivery of such Equity-Linked Securities or did not hold such offices at the date of such Equity-Linked Securities.

Each Equity-Linked Security shall be dated the date of its authentication.

No Equity-Linked Security shall be entitled to any benefit under this Agreement or be valid or obligatory for any purpose unless there appears on such Equity-Linked Security a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for herein executed by an authorized officer of the Purchase Contract Agent and Trustee (if applicable) by manual signature, and such certificate upon any Equity-Linked Security shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Equity-Linked Security has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder.

Section 3.04. Temporary Equity-Linked Securities . Pending the preparation of any Definitive Equity-Linked Securities, the Company shall execute and deliver to the Purchase Contract Agent and, in the case of Units, Trustee, and the Purchase Contract Agent and, if applicable, Trustee shall authenticate on behalf of the Holders, and deliver, in lieu of such Definitive Equity-Linked Securities, temporary Equity-Linked Securities that are in substantially the form set forth in Exhibit A or Exhibit B hereto, as the case may be, with such letters, numbers or other marks of identification or designation and such legends or endorsements printed, lithographed or engraved thereon as may be required by the rules of any securities exchange on which the Units or Separate Purchase Contracts, as the case may be, are listed, or as may, consistently herewith, be determined by the officers of the Company executing such Equity-Linked Securities, as evidenced by their execution of the Equity-Linked Securities.

If temporary Equity-Linked Securities are issued, the Company will cause Definitive Equity-Linked Securities to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation of Definitive Equity-Linked Securities, the temporary Equity-Linked Securities shall be exchangeable for Definitive Equity-Linked Securities upon surrender of the temporary Equity-Linked Securities at the Corporate Trust Office, at the expense of the Company and without charge to the Holder or the Purchase Contract Agent. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Equity-Linked Securities, the Company shall execute and deliver to the Purchase Contract Agent and Trustee, and the Purchase Contract Agent and, if applicable, the Trustee shall authenticate on behalf of the Holder, and deliver in exchange therefor, one or more Definitive Equity-Linked Securities of like tenor and denominations and evidencing a like number of Units or Separate Purchase Contracts, as the case may be, as the temporary Equity-Linked Security or Equity-Linked Securities so surrendered. Until so exchanged, the temporary Equity-Linked Securities shall in all respects evidence the same benefits and the same obligations with respect to the Units or Separate Purchase Contracts, as the case may be, evidenced thereby as Definitive Equity-Linked Securities.

Section 3.05. Registration; Registration of Transfer and Exchange . The Company shall cause to be kept at the Corporate Trust Office a register (the “ Security Register ”) in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Company shall provide for the registration of Equity-Linked Securities and of transfers of Equity-Linked Securities. The Purchase Contract Agent is hereby initially appointed security registrar (the “ Security Registrar ”) for the purpose of registration of Equity-Linked Securities and transfers of Equity-Linked Securities as provided herein. The Security Registrar shall record separately the registration and transfer of the Equity-Linked Securities evidencing Units and Separate Purchase Contracts.

19

Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Equity-Linked Security at the Corporate Trust Office, the Company shall execute and deliver to the Purchase Contract Agent and Trustee, and the Purchase Contract Agent and Trustee shall authenticate on behalf of the designated transferee or transferees, and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Equity-Linked Securities of any authorized denominations, of like tenor, and evidencing a like number of Units or Separate Purchase Contracts, as the case may be.

At the option of the Holder, Equity-Linked Securities may be exchanged for other Equity-Linked Securities, of any authorized numbers and evidencing a like number of Units or Separate Purchase Contracts, as the case may be, upon surrender of the Equity-Linked Securities to be exchanged at the Corporate Trust Office. Whenever any Equity-Linked Securities are so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute and deliver to the Purchase Contract Agent and Trustee, and the Purchase Contract Agent and, in the case of Units, the Trustee shall authenticate on behalf of the Holder, and deliver the Equity-Linked Securities which the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive.

All Equity-Linked Securities issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of an Equity-Linked Security shall evidence the ownership of the same number of Units or Separate Purchase Contracts, as the case may be, and be entitled to the same benefits and subject to the same obligations, under this Agreement as the Units or Separate Purchase Contracts, as the case may be, evidenced by the Equity-Linked Security surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.

Every Equity-Linked Security presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall (if so required by the Purchase Contract Agent) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Purchase Contract Agent duly executed by the Holder thereof, or its attorney duly authorized in writing.

No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of an Equity-Linked Security, but the Company or the Purchase Contract Agent on behalf of the Company may require payment from the Holder of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration of transfer or exchange of Equity-Linked Securities, other than any exchanges pursuant to Section 3.06 and Section 9.05 not involving any transfer.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be obligated to execute and deliver to the Purchase Contract Agent, and the Purchase Contract Agent and, in the case of Units, the Trustee shall not be obligated to authenticate on behalf of the Holder or deliver any Equity-Linked Security in exchange for any other Equity-Linked Security presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange on or after the Business Day immediately preceding the Scheduled Mandatory Settlement Date or any earlier Settlement Date with respect to such Equity-Linked Security. In lieu of delivery of a new Equity-Linked Security, upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions specified above in this Section and receipt of appropriate registration or transfer instructions from such Holder, the Company shall, if a Settlement Date with respect to such Equity-Linked Security has occurred, deliver or cause to be delivered the shares of Common Stock deliverable and cash in lieu of any fractional share of Common Stock (and/or, in the case of a Merger Redemption Settlement Date, make the required cash payment, if any) in respect of the Purchase Contracts evidenced by such Equity-Linked Security (together with the Separate Note, if such Equity-Linked Security is a Unit and if the Repurchase Right is not applicable or, if applicable, not exercised).

20

Section 3.06. Book-Entry Interests . The Units, on original issuance, will be issued in the form of one or more fully registered Global Units, to be delivered to the Depositary or its custodian by, or on behalf of, the Company. The Company hereby designates DTC as the initial Depositary. Such Global Units shall initially be registered on the books and records of the Company in the name of Cede & Co., the nominee of DTC, and no Beneficial Holder will receive a Definitive Unit representing such Beneficial Holder’s interest in such Global Unit, except as provided in Section 3.09. Unless and until definitive, fully registered Securities have been issued to Beneficial Holders pursuant to Section 3.09:

(i) the provisions of this Section 3.06 shall be in full force and effect;

(ii) the Company shall treat the Depositary for all purposes of this Agreement (including settling the Purchase Contracts and receiving approvals, votes or consents hereunder) as the Holder of the Global Units and Global Purchase Contracts and shall have no obligation to the Beneficial Holders;

(iii) to the extent that the provisions of this Section 3.06 conflict with any other provisions of this Agreement, the provisions of this Section 3.06 shall control; and

(iv) the rights of the Beneficial Holders shall be exercised only through the Depositary and shall be limited to those established by law and agreements between such Beneficial Holders and the Depositary or the Depositary Participants.

Section 3.07. Notices to Holders . Whenever a notice or other communication to the Holders is required to be given under this Agreement, the Company or the Company’s agent shall give such notices and communications to the Holders and, with respect to any Units or Purchase Contracts registered in the name of the Depositary or the nominee of the Depositary, the Company or the Company’s agent shall, except as set forth herein, have no obligations to the Beneficial Holders.

Section 3.08. Appointment of Successor Depositary . If the Depositary elects to discontinue its services as securities depositary with respect to the Units or Purchase Contracts, the Company may, in its sole discretion, appoint a successor Depositary with respect to such Units or such Purchase Contracts, as the case may be.

Section 3.09. Definitive Securities . If:

(i) the Depositary is at any time unwilling or unable to continue as depositary for the Global Securities or ceases to be a Clearing Agency registered under the Exchange Act, and a successor Depositary registered as a Clearing Agency under the Exchange Act is not appointed by the Company within 90 days; or

(ii) an Event of Default (as defined in the Indenture), or any failure on the part of the Company to observe or perform any covenant or agreement in the Purchase Contracts or the Purchase Contract Agreement, has occurred and is continuing and a Beneficial Holder requests that its Securities be issued in physical, certificated form,

then, in each case the Company shall execute, and the Purchase Contract Agent and/or the Trustee, as applicable, upon receipt of an Issuer Order for the authentication and delivery of Definitive Securities, shall authenticate and deliver Definitive Securities representing an aggregate number of Securities with respect to the Global Security or Securities representing such Securities (or representing an aggregate number of Securities equal to the aggregate number of Securities in respect of which such Beneficial Holder has requested the issuance of Definitive Securities pursuant to clause (ii) above) in exchange for

21

such Global Security or Securities (or portion thereof). Each Definitive Security so delivered shall evidence Units or Purchase Contracts or Notes, as the case may be, of the same kind and tenor as the Global Security so surrendered in respect thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the exchange of Global Notes for Notes in definitive form shall be governed by the Indenture.

Section 3.10. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Securities . If any mutilated Equity-Linked Security is surrendered to the Purchase Contract Agent, together with such security or indemnity as may be reasonably required by the Company, the Purchase Contract Agent and the Trustee to hold them or any of their agents harmless, then the Company shall execute and deliver to the Purchase Contract Agent and Trustee, and the Purchase Contract Agent and, if applicable, the Trustee shall authenticate on behalf of the Holder, and deliver in exchange therefor, a new Equity-Linked Security, evidencing the same number of Units or Separate Purchase Contracts, as the case may be, and bearing a security number not contemporaneously outstanding.

If there shall be delivered to the Company, the Purchase Contract Agent and the Trustee (in the case of any Units) (i) evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Equity-Linked Security, and (ii) such security or indemnity as may be reasonably required by them to hold each of them and any agent of any of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Company, the Purchase Contract Agent or the Trustee that such Equity-Linked Security has been acquired by a protected purchaser, the Company shall execute and deliver to the Purchase Contract Agent and the Trustee (in the case of any Units), and the Purchase Contract Agent and the Trustee (in the case of any Units) shall authenticate on behalf of the Holder, and deliver to the Holder, in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Equity-Linked Security, a new Equity-Linked Security, evidencing the same number of Units or Separate Purchase Contracts, as the case may be, and bearing a security number not contemporaneously outstanding.

Upon the issuance of any new Equity-Linked Security under this Section 3.10, the Company and the Purchase Contract Agent may require the payment by the Holder of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Purchase Contract Agent) connected therewith.

Such new Equity-Linked Security (and the Units or Separate Purchase Contracts, as applicable, evidenced thereby) shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits and be subject to all the obligations of this Agreement equally and proportionately with any and all other Equity-Linked Securities delivered hereunder.

All notices and communications to be given to the Holders and all payments to be made to Holders under the Securities and this Agreement shall be given or made only to or upon the order of the registered Holders (which shall be the Depositary or its nominee in the case of a Global Security). The rights of Beneficial Holders in Global Securities shall be exercised only through the Depositary subject to the applicable procedures.

(f) In the event of a Merger Termination Redemption with respect to Purchase Contracts that are a component of Units, upon the applicable Merger Redemption Settlement Date, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate (pursuant to the Indenture) on behalf of the Holder and deliver to the Holder thereof, at the expense of the Company, Separate Notes in the same form and in the same number as the Notes comprising part of the Units; provided, however , that if the Repurchase Date occurs prior to the Merger Redemption Settlement Date, any Holder exercising the Repurchase Right shall surrender the Units on the Repurchase Date and the Company shall execute, and the Purchase Contract Agent shall authenticate, Separate Purchase Contracts in the same form and in the same number as the Purchase Contracts comprising part of the Units, such Separate Purchase Contracts to be redeemed on the Merger Redemption Settlement Date.

Section 4.10. Acceleration of Mandatory Settlement Date . If a Bankruptcy Event occurs at any time on or before the last Trading Day of the 20 consecutive Trading Day period during which the Applicable Market Value is determined (the day on which such Bankruptcy Event occurs, the “ Acceleration Date ”), the Mandatory Settlement Date shall automatically be accelerated to the Business Day immediately following the Acceleration Date and Holders of Purchase Contracts shall be entitled to receive, upon settlement of the Purchase Contracts on such accelerated Mandatory Settlement Date, a number of shares of Common Stock per Purchase Contract equal to the Maximum Settlement Rate in effect immediately prior to the Acceleration Date (regardless of the Applicable Market Value of the Common Stock at that time). The Company shall cause to be delivered the shares of Common Stock, securities, cash or other property deliverable as a result of any such acceleration of the Mandatory Settlement Date in accordance with the provisions set forth in Section 4.05, except that (i) such delivery shall be made on the accelerated Mandatory Settlement Date, and (ii) the Person in whose name any shares of Common Stock shall be issuable following such acceleration shall be treated as the holder of record of such shares as of the close of business on the Acceleration Date. Any claim for damages that Holders of the Purchase Contracts (whether as Separate Purchase Contracts or Purchase Contracts underlying Units) have for the Company’s failure to deliver Common Stock following a Bankruptcy Event as described in this Section 4.10 will rank pari passu with the claims of holders of the Common Stock in the relevant bankruptcy proceeding.

33

Section 4.11. Registration of Underlying Shares and Transfer Taxes . The shares of Common Stock underlying the Purchase Contracts shall be registered in the name of the Holder or the Holder’s designee as specified in the settlement instructions provided by the Holder to the Purchase Contract Agent, and the Company will pay all documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer taxes attributable to the delivery thereof, unless any such tax is payable in respect of any registration of such shares in a name of a Person other than the Person in whose name the Security evidencing such Purchase Contract is registered, in which case the Company shall not be required to pay any such tax and no such registration shall be made unless the Person requesting such registration has paid any such taxes required by reason of such registration in a name of a Person other than the Person in whose name the Security evidencing such Purchase Contract is registered or has established to the satisfaction of the Company that such tax either has been paid or is not payable.

Section 4.12. Return of Purchase Contract Settlement Fund . In the event a Holder fails to effect surrender or delivery of its Units or Purchase Contracts on or following the applicable Settlement Date in accordance with the provisions hereof, the shares of Common Stock underlying such Purchase Contracts, and any dividends or distributions with respect to such shares constituting part of the Purchase Contract Settlement Fund, shall be held in the name of the Purchase Contract Agent or its nominee in trust for the benefit of such Holder, until the earlier to occur of:

(i) the surrender of the relevant Units or Separate Purchase Contracts for settlement or redemption in accordance with the provisions hereof or receipt by the Company and the Purchase Contract Agent from such Holder of satisfactory evidence that such Units or Separate Purchase Contracts have been destroyed, lost or stolen, together with any indemnity that may be required by the Purchase Contract Agent and the Company; and

(ii) the passage of two years from the applicable Settlement Date, as the case may be, following which the Purchase Contract Agent shall pay to the Company such Holder’s share of such Common Stock and any dividends or distributions with respect to such shares constituting part of the Purchase Contract Settlement Fund; provided , however , that prior to receiving any such payment, the Company shall notify each such Holder that such property remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such notice, any unclaimed balance of such property then remaining will be repaid to the Company. After payment to the Company, (A) Holders entitled to such property must look to the Company for payment as general creditors, unless applicable abandoned property law designates another Person, and (B) all liability of the Purchase Contract Agent with respect to such property shall cease.

Section 4.13. No Fractional Shares . No fractional shares or scrip certificates representing fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued or delivered to Holders upon settlement or redemption of the Purchase Contracts. In lieu of any fractional shares of Common Stock that would otherwise be issuable upon settlement or redemption of any Purchase Contracts, a Holder of a Purchase Contract shall be entitled to receive an amount in cash equal to the fraction of a share of Common Stock, calculated on an aggregate basis in respect of the Purchase Contracts being settled or redeemed (provided that, so long as the Units are held as Global Units, the Company may elect to aggregate Units for purposes of these calculations on any basis permitted by the applicable procedures of the Depositary), multiplied by the Daily VWAP of the Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the applicable Settlement Date. To the extent the Purchase Contract Agent is obligated to make any payments on behalf of the Company pursuant to this Agreement, the Company shall provide the Purchase Contract Agent with sufficient funds to permit the Purchase Contract Agent to make all such cash payments in a timely manner.

ARTICLE V

ADJUSTMENTS

Section 5.01. Adjustments to the Fixed Settlement Rates . (a) Each Fixed Settlement Rate shall be subject to the following adjustments, without duplication:

(i) Stock Dividends and Distributions . If the Company issues Common Stock to all or substantially all of the holders of Common Stock as a dividend or other distribution, then each Fixed Settlement Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the Record Date for such dividend or distribution shall be multiplied by a fraction:

(A) the numerator of which is equal to (i) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the close of business on such Record Date; plus (ii) the total number of shares of Common Stock constituting such dividend or other distribution; and

(B) the denominator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the close of business on such Record Date.

Any adjustment made pursuant to this clause (i) will become effective immediately after the close of business on the Record Date for such dividend or distribution. If any dividend or distribution described in this clause (i) is declared but not so paid or made, each Fixed Settlement Rate shall be readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors publicly announces its decision not to make such dividend or distribution, to such Fixed Settlement Rate that would be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared. For the purposes of this clause (i), the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the close of business on the Record Date for such dividend or other distribution shall not include shares held in treasury by the Company but shall include any shares issuable in respect of any scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of shares of Common Stock. The Company shall not pay any such dividend or make any such distribution on shares of Common Stock held in treasury by the Company.

(ii) Issuance of Stock Purchase Rights . If the Company issues to all or substantially all holders of Common Stock rights, options or warrants (other than rights, options or warrants issued pursuant to a dividend reinvestment plan, shareholder rights plan, share purchase plan or other similar plans), entitling such holders, for a period of up to 45 calendar days from the date of issuance of such rights, options or warrants, to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at a price per share less than the Current Market Price per share of Common Stock, then each Fixed Settlement Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the Record Date for such issuance shall be multiplied by a fraction:

(A) the numerator of which is equal to (i) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the close of business on such Record Date, plus (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to such rights, options or warrants, and

(B) the denominator of which is equal to (i) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the close of business on such Record Date, plus (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the quotient of the aggregate price payable to exercise such rights, options or warrants divided by the Current Market Price per share of Common Stock.

35

Any adjustment made pursuant to this clause (ii) shall be made successively whenever any such rights, options or warrants are issued and shall become effective immediately after the close of business on the Record Date for such issuance. In the event that such rights, options or warrants described in this clause (ii) are not so issued, each Fixed Settlement Rate shall be readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors publicly announces its decision not to issue such rights, options or warrants, to such Fixed Settlement Rate that would then be in effect if such issuance had not been declared. To the extent that such rights, options or warrants are not exercised prior to their expiration or shares of Common Stock are otherwise not delivered pursuant to such rights, options or warrants upon the exercise of such rights, options or warrants, each Fixed Settlement Rate shall be readjusted, effective as of the date of such expiration or the date it is determined such shares will not be delivered, as the case may be, to such Fixed Settlement Rate that would then be in effect had the adjustment made upon the issuance of such rights, options or warrants been made on the basis of the delivery of only the number of shares of Common Stock actually delivered.

In determining whether any rights, options or warrants entitle the Holders thereof to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at less than the Current Market Price per share of Common Stock, and in determining the aggregate price payable to exercise such rights, options or warrants, there shall be taken into account any consideration received by the Company for such rights, options or warrants and any amount payable on exercise or conversion thereof (the value of such consideration, if other than cash, to be determined by the Board of Directors).

For the purposes of this clause (ii), the number of shares of Common Stock at the time outstanding shall not include shares held in treasury by the Company but shall include any shares issuable in respect of any scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of shares of Common Stock. The Company shall not issue any such rights, options or warrants in respect of share of Common Stock held in treasury by the Company.

(iii) Subdivisions and Combinations of the Common Stock . If outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be subdivided into a greater number of shares of Common Stock or combined into a lesser number of shares of Common Stock, then each Fixed Settlement Rate in effect immediately prior to the open of business on the effective date of such subdivision or combination shall be multiplied by a fraction:

(A) the numerator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock that would be outstanding immediately after, and solely as a result of, such subdivision or combination, and

(B) the denominator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the open of business on such effective date (before giving effect to such subdivision or combination).

Any adjustment made pursuant to this clause (iii) shall become effective immediately after the open of business on the effective date of such subdivision or combination.

(iv) Debt or Asset Distribution . (A) If the Company distributes to all or substantially all holders of Common Stock evidences of its indebtedness, shares of the Company’s Capital Stock (other than Common Stock), securities, cash or other assets (excluding (1) any dividend or distribution as to which an adjustment was effected pursuant to Section 5.01(a)(i), (2) any rights, options or warrants as to which an adjustment was effected pursuant to Section 5.01(a)(ii), (3) any dividend or distribution described in Section 5.01(a)(v) and (4) any Spin-Off as to which the provisions set forth in Section 5.01(a)(iv)(B) shall apply), then each Fixed Settlement Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the Record Date for such distribution shall be multiplied by a fraction:

36

(1) the numerator of which is the Current Market Price per share of Common Stock, and

(2) the denominator of which is equal to (i) the Current Market Price per share of Common Stock, minus (ii) the Fair Market Value on such Record Date of the portion of the evidences of indebtedness, shares of Capital Stock, securities, cash or other assets so distributed applicable to one share of Common Stock.

Any adjustment made pursuant to subparagraph (A) of this clause (iv) shall become effective immediately after the close of business on the Record Date for such distribution. In the event that such distribution described in subparagraph (A) of this clause (iv) is not so made, each Fixed Settlement Rate shall be readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors publicly announces its decision not to pay such dividend or distribution, to such Fixed Settlement Rate that would then be in effect if such distribution had not been declared. The Company shall not make any such distribution on shares of Common Stock held in treasury by the Company.

(B) If a Spin-Off occurs, then each Fixed Settlement Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the Record Date for the relevant distribution shall instead be multiplied by a fraction:

(1) the numerator of which is equal to (i) the Current Market Price per share of Common Stock, plus (ii) the average of the Closing Prices (as if references to Common Stock in such definition were references to such Capital Stock or similar equity interest so distributed) of the Capital Stock or similar equity interests so distributed applicable to one share of Common Stock (over the 10 consecutive Trading Day period commencing on, and including, the effective date of the Spin-Off (the “ Valuation Period ”), and

(2) the denominator of which is the Current Market Price per share of Common Stock.

Any adjustment made pursuant to subparagraph (B) of this clause (iv) shall become effective immediately after the close of business on the last Trading Day of the Valuation Period; provided that, if any Determination Date occurs during the Valuation Period, references immediately above to 10 Trading Days shall be deemed to be replaced with such lesser number of Trading Days as have elapsed from, and including the effective date of such Spin-Off to, and including, such Determination Date for purposes of determining the Fixed Settlement Rates on such Determination Date. In the event that such distribution described in subparagraph (B) of this clause (iv) is not so made, each Fixed Settlement Rate shall be readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors publicly announces its decision not to pay such distribution, to such Fixed Settlement Rate that would then be in effect if such distribution had not been declared. The Company shall not make any such distribution on shares of Common Stock held in treasury by the Company.

37

(v) Cash Distributions . If the Company makes a distribution consisting exclusively of cash to all or substantially all holders of Common Stock (excluding (1) any cash that is distributed in a Reorganization Event in exchange for shares of Common Stock, (2) any regular quarterly dividend that does not exceed $0.73 per share of Common Stock (the “ Dividend Threshold Amount ”) or (3) any dividend or distribution in connection with the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company), then each Fixed Settlement Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the Record Date for such distribution shall be multiplied by a fraction:

(A) the numerator of which is the Current Market Price per share of Common Stock, and

(B) the denominator of which is equal to (i) the Current Market Price per share of Common Stock, minus (ii) the amount of such distribution per share of Common Stock in excess of the Dividend Threshold Amount; provided that if the distribution is not a regular quarterly cash dividend, then the Dividend Threshold Amount will be deemed to be zero.

The Dividend Threshold Amount is subject to adjustment on an inversely proportional basis whenever the Fixed Settlement Rates are adjusted (by multiplying the Dividend Threshold Amount by a fraction, the numerator of which will be the Minimum Settlement Rate in effect immediately prior to the adjustment and the denominator of which will be the Minimum Settlement Rate as adjusted), but no adjustment will be made to the Dividend Threshold Amount for any adjustment made to the Fixed Settlement Rates pursuant to this clause 5.01(a)(v).

Any adjustment made pursuant to this clause (v) shall become effective immediately after the close of business on the Record Date for such distribution. In the event that any distribution described in this clause (v) is not so made, each Fixed Settlement Rate shall be readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors publicly announces its decision not to pay such distribution, to such Fixed Settlement Rate which would then be in effect if such distribution had not been declared. The Company shall not make any such distribution on shares of Common Stock held in treasury by the Company.

(vi) Self Tender Offers and Exchange Offers . If the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company successfully completes a tender or exchange offer pursuant to a Schedule TO or registration statement on Form S-4 for the Common Stock (excluding any securities convertible or exchangeable for Common Stock and other than an odd-lot tender offer), where the cash and the value of any other consideration included in the payment per share of Common Stock validly tendered or exchanged exceeds the Current Market Price per share of Common Stock, each Fixed Settlement Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the 10th Trading Day immediately following, and including, the Trading Day immediately following the last date on which tenders or exchanges may be made pursuant to such tender or exchange offer (the “ Tender Offer Expiration Date ”) shall be multiplied by a fraction:

(A) the numerator of which shall be equal to the sum of:

(1) the aggregate value of all cash and the Fair Market Value on the Tender Offer Expiration Date of any other consideration paid or payable for shares of Common Stock validly tendered or exchanged and not withdrawn as of the Tender Offer Expiration Date; and

(2) the product of (x) the Current Market Price per share of Common Stock, and (y) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after the last time tenders or exchanges may be made pursuant to such tender or exchange offer (the “ Tender Offer Expiration Time ”), after giving effect to the purchase of all shares accepted for purchase or exchange in such tender or exchange offer; and

38

(B) the denominator of which shall be equal to the product of (x) the Current Market Price per share of Common Stock, and (y) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Tender Offer Expiration Time on the Tender Offer Expiration Date, prior to giving effect to the purchase of all shares accepted for purchase or exchange in such tender or exchange offer.

Any adjustment made pursuant to this clause (vi) shall become effective immediately after the close of business on the 10th Trading Day immediately following the Tender Offer Expiration Date; provided that, if any Determination Date occurs during the 10 Trading Days immediately following, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the Tender Offer Expiration Date, references immediately above to 10 Trading Days shall be deemed to be replaced with such lesser number of Trading Days as have elapsed from, and including, the Trading Day immediately following such Tender Offer Expiration Date to, and including, such Determination Date for the purposes of determining the Fixed Settlement Rates on such Determination Date. In the event that the Company or one of its Subsidiaries is obligated to purchase shares of Common Stock pursuant to any such tender or exchange offer, but the Company or such Subsidiary is permanently prevented by applicable law from effecting any such purchases, or all such purchases are rescinded, then each Fixed Settlement Rate shall be readjusted to such Fixed Settlement Rate that would then be in effect if such tender or exchange offer had not been made.

(b) Rights to Certain Distributions . Except with respect to a Spin-Off, in cases where the Fair Market Value of evidences of the Company’s indebtedness, shares of the Company’s Capital Stock (other than Common Stock), securities, cash or other assets as to which Section 5.01(a)(iv) or Section 5.01(a)(v) apply, applicable to one share of Common Stock, distributed to holders of Common Stock equals or exceeds the applicable Current Market Price per share of the Common Stock, rather than being entitled to an adjustment in each Fixed Settlement Rate, Holders shall be entitled to receive (without settling such Holders’ Purchase Contracts) on the date on which such evidences of indebtedness, shares of the Capital Stock, securities, cash or other assets are distributed to holders of Common Stock, for each Purchase Contract, the amount of such indebtedness, shares of Capital Stock, securities, cash or other assets that such Holder would have received had such Holder owned a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Maximum Settlement Rate on the Record Date for such distribution.

(c) Rights Plans . To the extent that the Company has a rights plan in effect with respect to the Common Stock on any Determination Date, Holders shall receive, in addition to the Common Stock, the rights under such rights plan, unless, prior to such Determination Date, the rights have separated from the Common Stock, in which case each Fixed Settlement Rate shall be adjusted at the time of separation of such rights as if the Company made a distribution to all holders of the Common Stock as described in Section 5.01(a)(iv), subject to readjustment in the event of the expiration, termination or redemption of such rights.

(d) Discretionary Adjustments . The Company may make such increases in each Fixed Settlement Rate, in addition to any other increases required by this Article 5, as the Company determines to be in its best interests or the Company deems advisable to avoid or diminish any income tax to holders of the Common Stock resulting from any dividend or distribution of shares of Common Stock (or issuance of rights, options or warrants to acquire shares of Common Stock) or from any event treated as such for income tax purposes or for any other reasons; provided that, in each case, the same proportionate adjustment must be made to each Fixed Settlement Rate.

39

(e) Calculation of Adjustments . All adjustments to each Fixed Settlement Rate shall be calculated to the nearest 1/10,000th of a share of Common Stock. No adjustment in a Fixed Settlement Rate shall be required unless such adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least one percent therein. If any adjustment is not required to be made by reason of this Section 5.01(e), then such adjustment shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment; provided that on each Determination Date (including any date for determining the amount of cash payable in connection with a Merger Termination Redemption), adjustments to each Fixed Settlement Rate shall be made with respect to any such adjustment carried forward and which has not been taken into account before such Determination Date.

(f) Adjustments to Prices Over a Period. Whenever the Company is required to calculate the Closing Prices, the Daily VWAPs or any other prices or amounts over a span of multiple days (including, without limitation, the Applicable Market Value, the Redemption Market Value, the Stock Price or the Merger Termination Stock Price), the Board of Directors shall make appropriate adjustments, if any, to each to account for any adjustment to the Fixed Settlement Rates if the related Record Date, Ex-Date, effective date or Tender Offer Expiration Date occurs during the period in which the Closing Prices, the Daily VWAPs or such other prices or amounts are to be calculated.

(g) Limitation on Adjustments . No adjustment to the Fixed Settlement Rates shall be made if Holders of Units or any separate Purchase Contracts participate (other than in the case of (x) a share split or share combination or (y) a tender or exchange offer), at the same time and upon the same terms as holders of the Common Stock and solely as a result of holding the Purchase Contracts, in the transaction that would otherwise give rise to an adjustment without having to settle the Purchase Contracts as if such Holder held a number of shares of the Common Stock equal to the Maximum Settlement Rate, multiplied by the number of Purchase Contracts held by such Holder. In addition, the Fixed Settlement Rates shall only be adjusted as set forth above and shall not be adjusted:

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

(B) upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock or rights, options or warrants to purchase those shares pursuant to any present or future employee, director or consultant benefit plan or program of or assumed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries;

(C) upon the repurchase of any shares of Common Stock pursuant to an open market share repurchase program or other buy-back transaction that is not a tender offer or exchange offer described in clause 5.01(vi) hereof;

(D) for the sale or issuance of shares of Common Stock, or securities convertible into or exercisable for shares of Common Stock, for cash, including at a price per share less than the Fair Market Value thereof or otherwise or in an acquisition, except as described in Sections 5.01(a)(i) through (vi) hereof;

(E) for a third-party tender offer;

(F) upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock pursuant to any option, warrant, right or exercisable, exchangeable or convertible security outstanding as of the Issue Date; or

40

(G) solely for a change in, or elimination of, the par value of the Common Stock.

(h) Notice of Adjustment . Whenever the Fixed Settlement Rates are adjusted, the Company shall:

(i) prepare and transmit to the Purchase Contract Agent an Officers’ Certificate setting forth such adjusted Fixed Settlement Rates and/or the adjusted Fundamental Change Settlement Rates and the adjusted Merger Redemption Rates, the method of calculation thereof in reasonable detail and the facts requiring such adjustment and upon which such adjustment is based;

(ii) within five Business Days following the occurrence of an event that requires an adjustment to the Fixed Settlement Rates, the Fundamental Change Settlement Rates and/or the adjusted Merger Redemption Rates (or if the Company is not aware of such occurrence, as soon as practicable after becoming so aware), provide, or cause to be provided, a written notice to the Holders of the occurrence of such event; and

(iii) within five Business Days following the determination of such adjusted Fixed Settlement Rates, Fundamental Change Settlement Rates and/or the adjusted Merger Redemption Rates provide, or cause to be provided, to the Holders a statement setting forth in reasonable detail the method by which the adjustment to such Fixed Settlement Rates, the Fundamental Change Settlement Rates and/or the adjusted Merger Redemption Rates was determined and setting forth such adjusted Fixed Settlement Rates, Fundamental Change Settlement Rates and/or the adjusted Merger Redemption Rates and the facts requiring such adjustment and upon which such adjustment is based.

(iv) Each adjustment to each Fixed Settlement Rate pursuant to this Section 5.01 will result in a corresponding adjustment to the Early Settlement Rate and the Early Mandatory Settlement Rate.

Section 5.02. Reorganization Events . (a) In the event of:

(i) any consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another Person (other than a merger or consolidation in which the Company is the continuing or surviving corporation and in which the Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the merger or consolidation is not exchanged for cash, securities or other property of the Company or another Person);

(ii) any sale, transfer, lease or conveyance to another Person of all or substantially all of the property and assets of the Company;

(iii) any reclassification of Common Stock into securities, including securities other than Common Stock; or

(iv) any statutory exchange of securities of the Company with another Person (other than in connection with a merger or acquisition);

41

in each case, as a result of which the Common Stock would be converted into, or exchanged for, securities, cash or other property (each, a “ Reorganization Event ”), each Purchase Contract outstanding immediately prior to such Reorganization Event shall, without the consent of Holders, become a contract to purchase the kind of securities, cash and/or other property (the “ Exchange Property ”) that a holder of Common Stock would have been entitled to receive immediately prior to such Reorganization Event and, prior to or at the effective time of such Reorganization Event, the Company or the successor or purchasing Person, as the case may be, shall execute with the Purchase Contract Agent and the Trustee a supplemental agreement permitted under Section 9.01(iv) amending this Agreement and the Purchase Contracts to provide for such change in the right to settle the Purchase Contracts. For purposes of the foregoing, the type and amount of Exchange Property in the case of any Reorganization Event that causes the Common Stock 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) will be deemed to be the weighted average of the types and amounts of consideration actually received by the holders of Common Stock. The Company shall notify the Purchase Contract Agent in writing of such weighted average as soon as practicable after such determination is made. The number of units of Exchange Property the Company shall deliver for each Purchase Contract settled or redeemed (if the Company elects not to deliver solely cash in respect of a Merger Termination Redemption) following the effective date of such Reorganization Event shall be equal to the number of shares of Common Stock that the Company would otherwise be required to deliver as determined based on the Fixed Settlement Rates then in effect on the applicable Determination Date, or such other settlement rates or redemption rates as provided herein (without any interest thereon and without any right to dividends or distributions thereon which have a record date that is prior to the close of business on the Determination Date). Each Fixed Settlement Rate shall be determined based upon the Applicable Market Value of a unit of Exchange Property that a holder of one share of Common Stock would have received in such Reorganization Event.

For purposes of this Section 5.02(a), “ Applicable Market Value ” shall be deemed to refer to the Applicable Market Value of the Exchange Property and such value shall be determined (A) with respect to any publicly traded securities that comprise all or part of the Exchange Property, based on the Daily VWAP of such securities, (B) in the case of any cash that comprises all or part of the Exchange Property, based on the amount of such cash and (C) in the case of any other property that comprises all or part of the Exchange Property, based on the value of such property, as determined by a nationally recognized independent investment banking firm retained by the Company for this purpose. For purposes of this Section 5.02(a), the term “ Daily VWAP ” shall be determined by reference to the definition of Daily VWAP as if references therein to Common Stock were to such publicly traded securities that comprise all or part of the Exchange Property. For purposes of this Section 5.02(a), references to Common Stock in the definition of “ Trading Day ” shall be replaced by references to any publicly traded securities that comprise all or part of the Exchange Property.

If the Exchange Property in respect of any Reorganization Event includes, in whole or in part, securities of another Person, such supplemental agreement described in the second immediately preceding paragraph shall be executed by such other Person and shall (x) provide for anti-dilution and other adjustments that shall be as nearly equivalent as practicable, as determined by the officer of the Company executing such supplemental agreement, to the adjustments provided for in this Article 5, and (y) otherwise modify the terms of this Agreement and the Purchase Contracts to reflect the substitution of the applicable Exchange Property for the Common Stock (or other Exchange Property then underlying the Purchase Contracts). In establishing such anti-dilution and other adjustments referenced in the immediately preceding sentence, such officer shall act in a commercially reasonable manner and in good faith.

42

(b) In the event the Company shall execute a supplemental agreement pursuant to Section 5.02(a), the Company shall promptly file with the Purchase Contract Agent an Officers’ Certificate briefly stating the reasons therefor, the kind or amount of cash, securities or property or asset that will comprise the Exchange Property after any such Reorganization Event, any adjustment to be made with respect thereto and that all conditions precedent have been complied with, and shall promptly notify Holders thereof. The Company (or any successor) shall, within 20 days of the occurrence of any Reorganization Event or, if earlier, within 20 days of the execution of any supplemental agreement pursuant to Section 5.02(a), provide written notice to the Purchase Contract Agent and Holders of such occurrence of such event and of the kind and amount of the cash, securities or other property that constitute the Exchange Property and of the execution of such supplemental agreement, if applicable. Failure to deliver such notice shall not affect the operation of this Section 5.02 or the legality or validity of any such supplemental agreement.

(c) The Company shall not become a party to any Reorganization Event unless its terms are consistent with this Section 5.02. None of the foregoing provisions shall affect the right of a Holder of Purchase Contracts to effect Early Settlement pursuant to Section 4.06 and Section 4.07 prior to the effective date of such Reorganization Event.

(d) The above provisions of this Section 5.02 shall similarly apply to successive Reorganization Events and the provisions of Section 5.01 shall apply to any shares of Capital Stock of the Company (or any successor) received by the holders of Common Stock in any such Reorganization Event.

(e) In connection with any Reorganization Event, the Dividend Threshold Amount shall be subject to adjustment as described in clause (i), clause (ii) or clause (iii) below, as the case may be.

(i) In the case of a Reorganization Event in which the Exchange Property (determined, as appropriate, pursuant to subsection (a) above and excluding any dissenters’ appraisal rights) is composed entirely of shares of common stock (the “ Merger Common Stock ”), the Dividend Threshold Amount at and after the effective time of such Reorganization Event will be equal to (x) the Dividend Threshold Amount immediately prior to the effective time of such Reorganization Event, divided by (y) the number of shares of Merger Common Stock that a holder of one share of Common Stock would receive in such Reorganization Event (such quotient rounded to the nearest cent).

(ii) In the case of a Reorganization Event in which the Exchange Property (determined, as appropriate, pursuant to subsection (a) above and excluding any dissenters’ appraisal rights) is composed in part of shares of Merger Common Stock, the Dividend Threshold Amount at and after the effective time of such Reorganization Event will be equal to (x) the Dividend Threshold Amount immediately prior to the effective time of such Reorganization Event, multiplied by (y) the Merger Valuation Percentage for such Reorganization Event (such product rounded to the nearest cent).

(iii) For the avoidance of doubt, in the case of a Reorganization Event in which the Exchange Property (determined, as appropriate, pursuant to subsection (a) above and excluding any dissenters’ appraisal rights) is composed entirely of consideration other than shares of common stock, the Dividend Threshold Amount at and after the effective time of such Reorganization Event will be equal to zero.

ARTICLE VI

CONCERNING THE HOLDERS OF PURCHASE CONTRACTS

Section 6.01. Evidence of Action Taken by Holders . Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by this Agreement to be given or taken by a specified percentage of number of Purchase Contracts may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such specified percentage of Holders in Person or by agent duly appointed in writing; and, except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered to the Purchase Contract Agent. Proof of execution of any instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Agreement and (subject to Section 8.01 and Section 8.03) conclusive in favor of the Purchase Contract Agent and the Company, if made in the manner provided in this Article 6.

Section 6.02. Proof of Execution of Instruments and of Holding of Securities . Subject to Section 8.01 and Section 8.03, the execution of any instrument by a Holder or his agent or proxy may be proved in the following manner:

(a) The fact and date of the execution by any Holder of any instrument may be proved by the certificate of any notary public or other officer of any jurisdiction authorized to take acknowledgments of deeds or administer oaths that the Person executing such instruments acknowledged to him the execution thereof, or by an affidavit of a witness to such execution sworn to before any such notary or other such officer. Where such execution is by or on behalf of any legal entity other than an individual, such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute sufficient proof of the authority of the Person executing the same.

(b) The ownership of the Units and the Purchase Contracts shall be proved by the Security Register or by a certificate of the Security Registrar.

Section 6.03. Purchase Contracts Deemed Not Outstanding . In determining whether the Holders of the requisite number of Outstanding Purchase Contracts have concurred in any direction, consent or waiver under this Agreement, Purchase Contracts which are owned by the Company or by any Affiliate of the Company with respect to which such determination is being made shall be disregarded and deemed not to be Outstanding Purchase Contracts for the purpose of any such determination, except that for the purpose of determining whether the Purchase Contract Agent shall be protected in relying on any such direction, consent or waiver only Purchase Contracts which a Responsible Officer of the Purchase Contract Agent knows are so owned shall be so disregarded. Purchase Contracts so owned which have been pledged in good faith may be regarded as Outstanding Purchase Contracts if the pledgee establishes to the satisfaction of the Purchase Contract Agent the pledgee’s right so to act with respect to such Purchase Contracts and that the pledgee is not the Company or any Affiliate of the Company. In case of a dispute as to such right, the advice of counsel shall be full protection in respect of any decision made by the Purchase Contract Agent in accordance with such advice. Upon request of the Purchase Contract Agent, the Company shall furnish to the Purchase Contract Agent promptly an Officers’ Certificate listing and identifying all Purchase Contracts, if any, known by the Company to be owned or held by or for the account of any of the above described Persons; and, subject to Section 8.01 and Section 8.03, the Purchase Contract Agent shall be entitled to accept such Officers’ Certificate as conclusive evidence of the facts therein set forth and of the fact that all Purchase Contracts not listed therein are Outstanding Purchase Contracts for the purpose of any such determination.

Section 6.04. Right of Revocation of Action Taken . At any time prior to (but not after) the evidencing to the Purchase Contract Agent, as provided in Section 6.01, of the taking of any action by the Holders of the percentage of the number of Purchase Contracts specified in this Agreement in connection with such action, any Holder of a Purchase Contract the serial number of which is shown by the evidence to be included among the serial numbers of the Purchase Contracts the Holders of which have consented to such action may, by filing written notice at the Corporate Trust Office and upon proof

44

of holding as provided in this Article 6, revoke such action so far as concerns such Purchase Contract; provided that such revocation shall not become effective until three Business Days after such filing. Except as aforesaid, any such action taken by the Holder of any Purchase Contract shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders and owners of such Purchase Contract and of any Purchase Contracts issued in exchange or substitution therefor or on registration of transfer thereof, irrespective of whether or not any notation in regard thereto is made upon any such Purchase Contract. Any action taken by the Holders of the percentage of the number of Purchase Contracts specified in this Agreement in connection with such action shall be conclusively binding upon the Company, the Purchase Contract Agent, the Trustee and the Holders of all the Purchase Contracts affected by such action.

Section 6.05. Record Date for Consents and Waivers . The Company may, but shall not be obligated to, establish a record date for the purpose of determining the Persons entitled to give, make or take any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided or permitted by this Agreement to be given made or taken by Holders of Purchase Contracts. If a record date is fixed, the Holders on such record date, or their duly designated proxies, and any such Persons, shall be entitled to give, make or take any such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action, whether or not such Holder remains a Holder after such record date; provided , however , that unless such waiver or consent is obtained from the Holders, or duly designated proxies, of the requisite number of Outstanding Purchase Contracts prior to the date which is the 120th day after such record date, any such waiver or consent previously given shall automatically and, without further action by any Holder be cancelled and of no further effect.

ARTICLE VII

REMEDIES

Section 7.01. Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive Shares of Common Stock . Each Holder of a Purchase Contract (whether or not included in a Unit) shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive the shares of Common Stock (and/or, in the case of a Merger Termination Redemption, any cash included in the Redemption Amount) pursuant to such Purchase Contract and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such right to receive the shares of Common Stock (and/or, in the case of a Merger Termination Redemption, any cash included in the Redemption Amount), and such right shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder.

Section 7.02. Notice To Purchase Contract Agent; Limitation On Proceedings . Holders of not less than 25% of Outstanding Purchase Contracts, by notice given to the Purchase Contract Agent, may request that Purchase Contract Agent to institute proceedings with respect to a default relating to any covenant hereunder; provided , subject to Section 7.08 and Article VIII hereof, the Purchase Contract Agent shall have no obligation to institute any such proceeding. No Holder of Purchase Contracts may institute any proceedings, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Agreement or for any remedy hereunder, except in the case of failure of the Purchase Contract Agent, for 60 days, to act after the Purchase Contract Agent has received a written request to institute proceedings in respect of a default with respect to any covenant hereunder from the Holders of not less than 25% of the Outstanding Purchase Contracts, as well as an offer of indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Purchase Contract Agent. This provision will not prevent any Holder of Purchase Contracts from instituting suit for the delivery of Common Stock (and/or, in the case of a Merger Termination Redemption, any cash included in the Redemption Amount) deliverable upon settlement or redemption of the Purchase Contracts on any Settlement Date.

45

Section 7.03. Restoration of Rights and Remedies .

Section 7.04. Rights and Remedies Cumulative . Except as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities in the last paragraph of Section 3.10, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Holders or the Purchase Contract Agent 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 7.05. Delay or Omission Not Waiver . No delay or omission of any Holder or the Purchase Contract Agent to exercise any right or remedy upon a default hereunder shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such right. Every right and remedy given by this Article or by law to the Holders or the Purchase Contract Agent may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by such Holders or the Purchase Contract Agent.

Section 7.06. Undertaking for Costs . All parties to this Agreement agree, and each Holder of a Purchase Contract, by its acceptance of such Purchase Contract 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 this Agreement, or in any suit against the Purchase Contract Agent for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it as Purchase Contract Agent, 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 and costs 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 that the provisions of this Section shall not apply to any suit instituted by (a) the Purchase Contract Agent, (b) any Holder, or group of Holders, holding in the aggregate more than 10% of the Outstanding Purchase Contracts, or (c) any Holder for the enforcement of the right to receive shares of Common Stock or other Exchange Property issuable upon settlement or the Redemption Amount payable or deliverable, as the case may be, upon redemption, as the case may be, of the Purchase Contracts held by such Holder.

Section 7.07. Waiver of Stay or Execution Laws . The Company covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or assume or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, that may affect the covenants or the performance of this Agreement; and the Company (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 hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Purchase Contract Agent or the Holders, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.

Section 7.08. Control by Majority . The Holders of not less than a majority in number of the Outstanding Purchase Contracts shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Purchase Contract Agent, or of exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Purchase Contract Agent; provided that the Purchase Contract Agent has received indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Purchase Contract Agent may refuse to follow any direction that is in conflict with any law or the Purchase Contract Agreement, or that may involve it in personal liability.
