Business Day after such Demand Date (a Demand Payment Date), and the Company shall

Section 2.04 Installment Amount Cash or Stock Payment.
(a) General. On each applicable Installment Date, the Company shall pay to each
Holder the Installment Amount due on such Installment Date, at the Companys option, in cash or
Common Shares or any combination of cash and Common Shares, subject to the provisions of this
Article II; provided, however, that no portion of the Installment Amount may be paid in
Common Shares unless (A) the Equity Conditions are satisfied, or waived, as applicable, by the
Trustee, at the direction of the Holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the
Notes then Outstanding, except that after the third Trading Day of the applicable Stock Payment
Pricing Period, the failure of the Equity Condition described in clause (ix) of the definition of
Equity Conditions to be satisfied may not be waived and (B) the Maximum Share Amount has not been
exceeded.
On a date not less than 11 Trading Days prior to each Installment Date (the Installment
Notice Date), the Company shall deliver a written notice (a Company Installment
Notice) to the Trustee and the Holders, which shall either: (i) confirm that the entire
applicable Installment Amount shall be paid in cash; or (ii) (A) state that the Company elects to
pay all or a portion of the Installment Amount in Common Shares, (B) specify the portion which the
Company elects to pay in cash (such amount, the Cash Payment Amount) and the portion that
the Company elects to pay in Common Shares (such portion a Stock Payment Amount), which
amounts when added together must equal the applicable Installment Amount and (C) certify that the
Equity Conditions are then satisfied (it being understood that the Trustee shall be relying
conclusively on such certification). If (x) the Company does not timely deliver a Company
Installment Notice in accordance with this Section 2.04(a) or (y) the Equity Conditions are
not satisfied, then the Company shall be deemed to have delivered a Company Installment Notice
electing to pay the entire Installment Amount in cash. Any Cash Payment Amount shall be paid in
accordance with
10
Section 2.04(b) and any Stock Payment Amount shall be paid in accordance with
Section 2.04(c). Each Company Installment Notice, whether actually given or deemed given,
shall be irrevocable.
(b) Mechanics of Cash Payment. On each Installment Date (in addition to any portion
of the Installment Amount required to be paid in Common Shares pursuant to Section 2.04(c),
if any): (i) to the extent that the Company elects to pay 50% or less of the applicable
Installment Amount in cash, then the Company shall pay to each Holder an amount in cash equal to
such percentage of the Installment Amount; or (ii) to the extent that the Company elects (or is
deemed to have elected) to pay more than 50% of the applicable Installment Amount in cash (the
amount by which the percentage of the Installment Amount the Company elects to pay in cash exceeds
50%, the Additional Percentage), then the Company shall pay to each Holder an amount in
cash equal to the sum of (x) 50% of the Installment Amount and (y) the IA Additional Cash Payment
if the Daily VWAP can be determined on each day of the Stock Payment Pricing Period or, if the
Daily VWAP cannot be determined on each day of the Stock Payment Pricing Period, the IA Base
Payment.
The IA Additional Cash Payment shall be determined according to the following
formula:
For the purposes of the foregoing formula:
IA= the IA Additional Cash Payment Amount.
X = the Installment Amount payable on the applicable Installment Date.
Y = the Stock Payment Price for the applicable Installment Date.
Z = the highest Daily VWAP during the Stock Payment Pricing Period for the applicable
Installment Date.
P% = the Additional Percentage.
The IA Base Payment shall be determined according to the following formula:
IB = 1.15 x X x P%
For the purposes of the foregoing formula:
IB = IA Base Payment
X = the Installment Amount payable on the applicable Installment Date
P% = the Additional Percentage.
(c) Mechanics of Stock Payment. On each Installment Date, to the extent that the
Company elects to pay all or any portion of the applicable Installment Amount in Common Shares, and
the Daily VWAP can be determined on each day of the Stock Payment
11
Pricing Period, the applicable Stock Payment Amount shall be paid in a number of Common Shares
equal to the Stock Payment Amount divided by the Stock Payment Price for such Installment Date.
The Company shall deliver the Common Shares to be paid in accordance with the mechanics for
delivery set forth in Section 2.05. To the extent that the aggregate number of Common
Shares to be delivered to all of the Holders pursuant to Section 2.05 in respect of any individual
Stock Payment Amount exceeds the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, then, in addition to delivery of
the number of Common Shares that would not exceed the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, the Company
shall pay to the Trustee on behalf of each Holder in lieu of such number of Common Shares that
would exceed the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (such excess number of shares, the Excess
Shares) an amount in cash equal to the portion of the Stock Payment Amount that would
otherwise be payable in respect of the Excess Shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing:
(i) if the Equity Conditions are neither (x) satisfied nor (y) waived, as applicable,
by the Trustee at the direction of the Holders of a majority of the aggregate principal
amount of the Notes then Outstanding, then the Company shall pay, not more than three
Trading Days after the Installment Date, an amount in cash equal to the EC Payment, in lieu
of such Stock Payment Amount;
(ii) to the extent that the Maximum Share Amount would be exceeded by such Stock
Payment Amount when aggregated with any Common Shares already issued in respect of the
Notes, then that portion of such Stock Payment Amount that would not exceed the Maximum
Share Amount shall be delivered to the Trustee on behalf of each Holder pursuant to
Section 2.05, ratably based on the then-Outstanding principal amount of the Notes
held by such Holder relative to the aggregate principal amount of the Notes then
Outstanding, and the Company shall pay to the Trustee on behalf of such Holder, not more
than three Trading Days after the Installment Date, an amount in cash equal to the EC
Payment, in lieu of any remainder of such Stock Payment Amount; and
(iii) if the Daily VWAP cannot be determined on each day of the Stock Payment Pricing
Period, then the Company shall pay to the Trustee on behalf of the Holders the IA Non-Stock
Base Payment in lieu of a Stock Payment Amount.
The EC Payment shall be determined according to the following formula:
For the purposes of the foregoing formula:
EC= the EC Payment.
X = the Stock Payment Amount (or, in the case that the Maximum Share Amount would be exceeded
by such Stock Payment Amount when aggregated with Common Shares already issued in respect of the
Notes, only that portion of the Stock Payment Amount that would exceed the Maximum Share Amount).
Y = the Stock Payment Price for the applicable Installment Date.
12
Z = the highest Daily VWAP during the Stock Payment Pricing Period for the applicable
Installment Date.
The IA Non-Stock Base Payment shall be determined according to the following
formula:
NS = 1.15 x X x S%
For the purposes of the foregoing formula:
NS = IA Non-Stock Base Payment
X = the Installment Amount payable on the applicable Installment Date
S% = the percentage of the applicable Installment Amount that the Company elected to pay in
Common Shares.
Section 2.05 Mechanics for Delivery of Shares. Not later than three Trading Days after any
Installment Date (the Delivery Date), the Company or its designated agent for the Common
Shares (the Common Stock Transfer Agent) shall instruct the Trustee to instruct DTC to
credit such aggregate number of Common Shares to which the applicable Holder shall be entitled,
free from any restrictive legend, to such Holders or its designees balance account with DTC
through its Deposit/Withdrawal at Custodian (DWAC) system. In connection with any such
action, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive and be fully protected in relying upon written
instructions from the Company.
If such Common Shares are not delivered by the Delivery Date, the Company shall:
(i) instruct the Trustee to instruct DTC to deliver such Common Shares to the
applicable Holders or its designees balance account with DTC through the DWAC system not
later than the fifth Trading Day after the Delivery Date, or at any time after the Delivery
Date, but not later than the fifth Trading Day after the Delivery Date, pay in cash either
the Delivery Failure Amount or, if the Daily VWAP cannot be determined on each day of the
Stock Payment Pricing Period, the IA Non-Stock Base Payment applicable to such Common
Shares.
The Delivery Failure Amount shall be determined according to the following formula:
For the purposes of the foregoing formula:
DFA = the Delivery Failure Amount.
X = the portion of the Stock Payment Amount in respect of Common Shares that the
Company has failed to deliver to the Holder.
Y = the Stock Payment Price for the Installment Date in respect of such Stock
Payment Amount.
13
Z = the highest Daily VWAP during the period commencing on the Installment Notice
Date for the Installment Date in respect of such Stock Payment Amount and ending on
the date that the Company pays to the Holder the Delivery Failure Amount.
and
(ii) pay to the Trustee on behalf of the Holders, in cash, an amount per Trading Day
for each Trading Day after the Delivery Date until such Delivery Failure Amount is paid in
cash or such Common Shares are delivered to the applicable Holders or its designees
balance account with DTC through the DWAC system, together with interest on such amount at a
rate equal to the sum of (A) the lesser of 15% and the maximum applicable legal rate per
annum, plus (B) 1% of the portion of the Stock Payment Amount in respect of Common Shares
that the Company has failed to deliver to the Holder for each of the first five Trading Days
after the Delivery Date and 2% of the portion of the Stock Payment Amount in respect of
Common Shares that the Company has failed to deliver to the Holder for each Trading Day
thereafter (which amount shall be paid as liquidated damages and not as a penalty).
If any fractional Common Share otherwise would be issuable as a result of the issuance of
Common Shares to pay principal, premium or interest due on the Notes, the Company shall calculate
and pay to the Trustee on behalf of the Holders a cash adjustment in lieu of such fractional share
at a rate equal to the Daily VWAP per share for the Common Shares for the five Trading Days
immediately preceding the first Trading Day prior to the applicable Installment Date.
Section 2.06 Issuance Limitations. The total number of Common Shares issued or issuable on
any Installment Date in payment of principal, premium and interest on the Notes (including payment
of interest on the Notes for purposes of any such rule or regulation) shall not (when aggregated
with any Common Shares already issued in respect of the Notes) exceed the maximum number of Common
Shares which the Company can so issue pursuant to any rule or regulation of the New York Stock
Exchange (or any other principal United States securities market on which the Common Shares trade)
(the Maximum Share Amount), subject to equitable adjustments from time to time for stock
splits, stock dividends, combinations, capital reorganizations and similar events relating to the
Common Shares occurring after the original issue date of the Notes. The limitation set forth in
this Section 2.06 shall not apply if the issuances of Common Shares in lieu of cash are
Permitted Issuances. In no event shall the Trustee be responsible for monitoring such issuance
limitations.
Section 2.07 Other Terms of the Notes.
(a) Except as provided in this First Supplemental Indenture, the Notes shall not be subject to
redemption, repurchase or repayment at the option of the Company or any Holder thereof.
(b) Article 10 of the Base Indenture shall not apply to this First Supplemental Indenture or

(a) Corporate Existence. The Company shall maintain in full force and effect its
corporate existence, rights and franchises and all licenses and other rights to use property owned
or possessed by it and reasonably deemed to be necessary to the conduct of its business.
(b) Regulatory Compliance. If any Common Shares to be reserved for the purpose of
paying Installment Amounts require registration or listing with or approval of any governmental
authority, stock exchange or other regulatory body under any federal or state law or regulation
before such shares may be validly issued or delivered in connection with a payment of an
Installment Amount, the Company, at its sole cost and expense, in good faith and as expeditiously
as possible, shall use its best efforts to secure such registration, listing or approval, as the
case may be.

state or local income taxes, that may be paid in respect of its issue or delivery of Common Shares
in accordance with the Notes.

Holder to amend or waive or modify any provision of the Notes, the Base Indenture or this First
Supplemental Indenture unless the same consideration is also offered to all of the Holders. This
provision constitutes a separate right granted to each Holder by the Company and shall not in any
way be construed as the Holders acting in concert or as a group with respect to the purchase,
disposition or voting of securities or otherwise.
(e) Ranking. The Notes will be the general senior unsecured obligations of the
Company and will rank in right of payment:
(i) equally among themselves and with all other existing and future obligations of the
Company that are unsecured and unsubordinated;

Notwithstanding any other paragraph of this Section 4.01 or the Base Indenture, and
without limitation of (i) the remedies of a Holder pursuant to Article II in the event of a failure
to deliver Common Shares or (ii) the right of a Holder pursuant to Section 2.04(c)(i) to
receive an amount in cash equal to the EC Payment in lieu of a Stock Payment Amount in the event
that the Equity Conditions are neither satisfied nor waived, any failure to perform, or breach of,
any covenant or agreement of the Company in respect of the Notes contained in Section 314(a)(1) of
the Trust Indenture Act shall not be a default or an Event of Default. Except as set forth in this
First Supplemental Indenture, remedies against the Company for any such failure or breach will be
limited to liquidated damages as described in the following sentence, and Holders shall not have
any right to accelerate the maturity of the Notes as a result of any such failure or breach.
Instead, if there is such a failure or breach of the Companys obligation under Section 314(a)(1)
of the Trust Indenture Act and continuance of such failure or breach for a period of 60 days after
the date on which there has been given, by registered or certified mail, to the Company by the
Trustee or to the Company and the Trustee by the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the
then-Outstanding Notes, a written notice specifying such failure or breach and requiring it to be
remedied and stating that such notice is a Notice of Reporting Noncompliance hereunder, the
Company will pay liquidated damages to all Holders of Notes, at a rate per year equal to 0.25% of
the outstanding principal amount of such Notes from the 60th day following such notice to and
including the 150th day following such notice and at a rate per year equal to 0.5% of the principal
amount of such Notes from and including the 151st day following such notice, until such failure or
breach is cured. Any such liquidated damages shall be payable in the same manner and on the same
dates as the stated interest payable on the Notes. In the event that the Company is required to
pay such liquidated damages, the Company shall provide a written notice to the Trustee (and if the
Trustee is not the Paying Agent, the Paying Agent) no later then five
17
Business Days prior to the payment date for the payment of such liquidated damages setting
forth the amount of such liquidated damages to be paid by the Company on such payment date and
directing the Trustee (or, if the Trustee is not the Paying Agent, the Paying Agent) to make such
payment to the extent it receives funds from the Company to do so. The Trustee shall not at any
time be under any duty or responsibility to any Holder to determine whether such liquidated damages
are payable, or with respect to the nature, extent or calculation of the amount of liquidated
damages owed.
If an Event of Default occurs under clause (f) or (g) above, the principal of and interest on
the Notes shall become immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part
of the Trustee or any Holders of Notes.
If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default occurring as a result of clause (f) or
(g)) with respect to Notes shall have occurred and be continuing, either the Trustee or the Holders
of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of Notes then Outstanding by written notice to
the Company may declare the principal amount of all Notes and accrued and unpaid interest thereon
to be due and payable immediately, and upon any such declaration the same shall become and shall be
immediately due and payable. This provision, however, is subject to the condition that if at any
time after the principal of the Notes shall have been so declared due and payable, and before any
judgment or decree for the payment of the amounts due shall have been obtained or entered as
hereinafter provided, the Company shall have paid or deposited with the Trustee sufficient funds to
pay all matured installments of interest, if any, upon all the Notes and the principal of the Notes
and any other amounts that shall have become due (including, without limitation, any IA Base
Payment, IA Additional Cash Payment, EC Payment, IA Non-Stock Base Payment, Delivery Failure
Amount, EOD Cash Payment Amount, EOD Base Payment, CR Base Payment, CR Cash Payment Amount or
liquidated damages) other than by such acceleration (with interest upon such principal and other
amounts and, to the extent that payment of such interest is enforceable under applicable law, upon
overdue installments of interest, at the rate borne by the Notes to the date of such payment or
deposit) and all other defaults under this First Supplemental Indenture, other than the nonpayment
of the principal of Notes that shall have become due by such acceleration, shall have been
remedied, then and in every such case the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of
the Notes then Outstanding, by written notice to the Company and to the Trustee, may waive all
defaults and rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences; but no such waiver or
rescission and annulment shall extend to or shall affect any subsequent default or shall impair any
right consequent thereon.
Subject to the provisions of Article 6 of the Base Indenture, in case an Event of Default with
respect to the Notes shall occur and be continuing, the Trustee shall not be under any obligation
to exercise any of the trusts or powers vested in it hereby at the request or direction of any
Holder, unless such Holder shall have offered to such Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to
it.
Upon the date of any acceleration of the amounts due and payable under the Notes in accordance
with this Section 4.01 (an Acceleration Date), the Company shall deliver to the
Trustee on behalf of the Holders by wire transfer of immediately available funds an amount in cash
equal to the arithmetic average of the entire amount due and payable under the Notes and, if the
Daily VWAP can be determined on each day of the Stock Payment Pricing Period, the EOD
18
Cash Payment Amount or, if the Daily VWAP cannot be determined on each day of the Stock
Payment Pricing Period, the EOD Base Payment.
The EOD Cash Payment Amount shall be determined according to the following formula:
For the purposes of the foregoing formula:
EOD = the EOD Cash Payment Amount.
X = the entire outstanding principal amount of the Notes, all interest on the outstanding
principal amount of the Notes due through the Maturity Date and all other amounts due under
the Notes.
Y = the Stock Payment Price for the Acceleration Date.
Z = the highest Daily VWAP during the Stock Payment Pricing Period for the Acceleration
Date.
The EOD Base Payment shall be determined according to the following formula:
EODB = X x 1.15
For purposes of the foregoing formula:
EODB = the EOD Base Payment
X = the entire outstanding principal amount of the Notes, all interest on the outstanding
principal amount of the Notes due through the Maturity Date and all other amounts due under
the Notes.
Section 4.02 Collection of Indebtedness by Trustee; Trustee May Prove Debt. For purposes
of this First Supplemental Indenture and the Notes, the reference to 30 days in the first
sentence of Section 5.02 of the Base Indenture shall be replaced with five Business Days.

of this First Supplemental Indenture shall supersede and replace the provisions of Section 5.05 of
the Base Indenture for purposes of the Notes.

availing of any provision of this Indenture, to institute any action or proceeding at law or
in equity or in bankruptcy or otherwise with respect to this Indenture, or for the
appointment of a trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian or other similar official or for
any other remedy hereunder, unless such Holder previously shall have given to the Trustee
written notice of an Event of Default and of the continuance thereof and the Holders of not
less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then Outstanding shall have made
written request upon the Trustee to institute such action or proceedings in its own
19
name as trustee hereunder and shall have offered to the Trustee security or indemnity
satisfactory to it as it may require, against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be
incurred therein or thereby and the Trustee for 45 days after its receipt of such notice,
request and offer of security or indemnity shall have failed to institute any such action or
proceeding and no direction inconsistent with such written request shall have been given to
the Trustee during such 45-day period by Holders of a majority in principal amount of the
Notes then Outstanding; it being understood and intended, and being expressly covenanted by
the Holder of every Note with every other Holder of a Note and the Trustee, that no one or
more Holders of Notes shall have any right in any manner whatever, by virtue or by availing
of any provision of this Indenture, to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other
such Holder of Notes, or to obtain or seek to obtain priority over or preference to any
other such Holder or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein
provided and for the equal, ratable and common benefit of all Holders of Notes (it being
understood that the Trustee does not have an affirmative duty to ascertain whether or not
such actions or forbearances are unduly prejudicial to such Holders).
