Related to Adjustment to Exchange Amount

• Adjustments to Exchange Ratio The Exchange Ratio shall be adjusted to reflect appropriately the effect of any stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend (including any dividend or distribution of securities convertible into Parent Common Stock or Company Common Stock), reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification or other like change with respect to Parent Common Stock or Company Common Stock occurring on or after the date hereof and prior to the Effective Time.

• Adjustment to Conversion Price Whenever the Conversion Price is adjusted pursuant to any provision of this Section 5, the Company shall promptly deliver to each Holder a notice setting forth the Conversion Price after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment.

• Adjustment Amount (a) Schedule 2.16 sets forth a sample calculation of the Adjustment Amount and the Target Adjustment Amount as of the Balance Sheet Date (the “Sample Closing Statement”), including the asset, liability and other line items and accounting principles used in such calculation, and assuming that all of such asset and liability line items that constitute Mallinckrodt Assets or Mallinckrodt Liabilities under this Agreement will be transferred to Mallinckrodt as of the Distribution. (b) Within sixty (60) days after the Distribution Date, Mallinckrodt shall cause to be prepared and delivered to Covidien a statement (the “Closing Statement”) setting forth (i) the Adjustment Amount and the calculation of the Adjustment Amount and (ii) the Target Adjustment Amount and the calculation of the Target Adjustment Amount. The Closing Statement shall be prepared in accordance with the Transaction Accounting Principles, including the use of the same line items and line item entries, set forth on and used in the preparation of the Sample Closing Statement; provided, however, that assets newly acquired and liabilities newly incurred following the date of the Sample Closing Statement which cannot be appropriately placed in line items previously used by Mallinckrodt, but that constitute Mallinckrodt Assets or Mallinckrodt Liabilities, will also be included to the extent consistent with the Transaction Accounting Principles. (c) Within thirty (30) days following receipt by Covidien of the Closing Statement, Covidien shall deliver written notice to Mallinckrodt of any dispute Covidien has with respect to the preparation or content of the Closing Statement (the “Dispute Notice”); provided, however, that if Covidien does not deliver any Dispute Notice to Mallinckrodt within such thirty (30)-day period, the Closing Statement will be final, conclusive and binding on the Parties. Any Dispute Notice shall (i) set forth in reasonable detail the basis for any dispute included therein, the amounts involved and Covidien’s determination of the Adjustment Amount and/or the Target Adjustment Amount (as applicable) and (ii) include only disagreements based on the Adjustment Amount and/or the Target Adjustment Amount (as applicable) not being calculated properly in accordance with this Agreement or containing mathematical errors. Upon receipt by Mallinckrodt of a Dispute Notice, Mallinckrodt and Covidien shall negotiate in good faith to resolve any dispute set forth therein. If Mallinckrodt and Covidien, such good faith effort notwithstanding, fail to resolve any such dispute within fifteen (15) Business Days following receipt by Mallinckrodt of the Dispute Notice (the “Dispute Resolution Period”), then Mallinckrodt and Covidien jointly shall engage, within ten (10) Business Days following the expiration of the Dispute Resolution Period, Ernst & Young LLP or, if Ernst & Young LLP is unavailable or conflicted, another nationally recognized major accounting firm selected jointly by Covidien and Mallinckrodt (the “Independent Accounting Firm”) to resolve any such dispute. If Ernst & Young LLP is unavailable or conflicted and Covidien and Mallinckrodt are unable to agree on the Independent Accounting Firm, then each of Covidien and Mallinckrodt shall select a nationally recognized major accounting firm, and the two (2) firms will mutually select a third nationally recognized major accounting firm to serve as the Independent Accounting Firm. As promptly as practicable, and in any event not more than fifteen (15) days following the engagement of the Independent Accounting Firm, Mallinckrodt and Covidien shall each prepare and submit a presentation detailing each Party’s complete statement of proposed resolution of each issue still in dispute to the Independent Accounting Firm. Mallinckrodt and Covidien shall cause the Independent Accounting Firm to, as soon as practicable after the submission of the presentations described in the immediately preceding sentence and in any event not more than thirty (30) days following such presentations, make a final determination, binding on the Parties, of the appropriate amount of each of the line items that remain in dispute as indicated in the Dispute Notice. With respect to each disputed line item, such determination, if not in accordance with the position of either Covidien or Mallinckrodt, shall not be in excess of the higher, nor less than the lower, of the amounts set forth by Mallinckrodt in the Closing Statement or by Covidien in the Dispute Notice, as applicable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the scope of the disputes to be resolved by the Independent Accounting Firm shall be limited to whether any determination of the Adjustment Amount and/or the Target Adjustment Amount (as applicable) was properly calculated in accordance with the Transaction Accounting Principles, and the Independent Accounting Firm is not to make any other determination, including any determination as to whether GAAP was followed, to the extent GAAP is inconsistent with the Transaction Accounting Principles. All fees and expenses relating to the work, if any, to be performed by the Independent Accounting Firm shall be borne equally by Covidien and Mallinckrodt. All determinations made by the Independent Accounting Firm, and the Closing Statement, as modified by the Independent Accounting Firm, will be final, conclusive and binding on the Parties, absent fraud or manifest error. (d) For purposes of complying with the terms set forth in this Section 2.16, Mallinckrodt and Covidien shall cooperate with and make available to each other and their respective Representatives all information, records, data and working papers, in each case, to the extent related to the Mallinckrodt Assets, Mallinckrodt Liabilities or Mallinckrodt Business, and shall permit access to its facilities and personnel, as may be reasonably required in connection with the preparation and analysis of the Closing Statement and the resolution of any disputes thereunder. (e) If the Adjustment Amount, as finally determined pursuant to Section 2.16(c), is greater than the Target Adjustment Amount, as finally determined pursuant to Section 2.16(c), by at least $20 million, then Mallinckrodt shall pay or cause to be paid an amount in cash equal to the difference from the first dollar (i.e., without regard to the $20 million threshold) to Covidien by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated in writing by Covidien to Mallinckrodt. If the Adjustment Amount, as finally determined pursuant to Section 2.16(c), is less than the Target Adjustment Amount, as finally determined pursuant to Section 2.16(c), by at least $20 million, then Covidien shall pay or cause to be paid an amount in cash equal to the difference from the first dollar (i.e., without regard to the $20 million threshold) to Mallinckrodt by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated in writing by Mallinckrodt to Covidien. Any such payment pursuant to this Section 2.16(e) is to be made within five (5) Business Days of the date on which the Adjustment Amount and the Target Adjustment Amount have been finally determined pursuant to this Section 2.16.

• Adjustment to Purchase Price (a) The Closing Payment shall be increased by the parties' good faith estimate of the Current Assets of Seller and decreased by the parties' good faith estimate of the Current Liabilities of Seller as of the Closing Date (the "Closing Adjustment"), which adjustment shall be subject to final adjustment as provided for in paragraph (c) below. (b) No later than sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, or within three (3) days after receipt of the necessary accounting data from the NRTC Central Billing System, whichever is later, Purchaser shall make and deliver to Seller a balance sheet reflecting the Current Assets and Current Liabilities of Seller as of the Closing Date (the "Closing Date Balance Sheet"), prepared on a basis consistent with GAAP. For purposes of the Closing Adjustment and the Final Closing Adjustment (as hereinafter defined), the amount of Accounts Receivable of Seller to be included in the Closing Date Balance Sheet shall include only Accounts Receivable of Subscribers as reflected on Report 18A (Subscriber Accounts Receivable Aging By Account) of the NRTC Central Billing System Reports less a reserve of six percent (6%) for Accounts Receivable which are not collectible. In addition, the Closing Date Balance Sheet and the Final Closing Adjustment shall not include as a Current Asset any accounts receivable arising from Leased Subscriber Equipment. Purchaser may, by providing Seller with written notice at least five (5) days prior to the Closing, elect to purchase all, or certain of, the DSS(TM) subscriber equipment owned by Seller (other than Leased Subscriber Equipment) on the Closing Date; provided, however, Purchaser shall not have the right to acquire any assets attributable to Seller's Electric Business. Any such equipment which is purchased by Purchaser shall be included as Inventory in the Closing Date Balance Sheet. Except as set forth in this Section 4.4(b), no other assets or liabilities shall be included in the Closing Date Balance Sheet. Seller shall make available to Purchaser such documentation, back-up, invoices, and books and records of Seller as Purchaser may reasonably request. (c) Seller and Purchaser shall negotiate in good faith to reconcile any discrepancies which may arise in connection with the determination of the Closing Date Balance Sheet. If Seller and Purchaser are unable to reconcile such discrepancies, Seller shall have fifteen (15) days from presentment of the Closing Date Balance Sheet by Purchaser to notify Purchaser if Seller wishes to have Purchaser's determination examined. If Seller elects to have Purchaser's determination examined, it shall be submitted to the determination in Atlanta, Georgia, by the Certified Public Accounting firm of KMPG Peat Marwick (or any other independent Certified Public Accounting firm mutually acceptable to Seller and Purchaser), the cost of such examination to be paid fifty percent (50%) by Seller and fifty percent (50%) by Purchaser. The determination by Purchaser shall be final and binding on the parties unless Seller elects to have an examination as provided herein, in which case the results of the examination shall be made within thirty (30) days of such referral, and shall be final and binding on the parties (the "Final Closing Adjustment"). (d) To the extent the Final Closing Adjustment is less than the Closing Adjustment, Seller shall pay the difference in cash to Purchaser within five (5) days after the final determination. In the event the Final Closing Adjustment is greater than the Closing Adjustment, Purchaser shall pay such excess in cash to Seller within five (5) days after the final determination. If, following any payment pursuant to this Section 4.4(d), an error (in billing or reporting by NRTC or otherwise) is thereafter discovered which would have affected the Final Closing Adjustment, the party in whose favor the error was made shall immediately pay in cash the amount of such error to the other party.

• Adjustments to Conversion Price (a) If the Company shall at any time while this Debenture is outstanding subdivide the outstanding shares of its Common Stock, the Conversion Price then in effect immediately before that subdivision shall be proportionately decreased, and if the Company shall at any time while this Debenture is outstanding combine the outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Price then in effect immediately before that combination shall be proportionately increased. Except as otherwise provided below, any adjustment under this Section 5.3 shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective. A dividend on any security of the Company payable in Common Stock, or a split of the Company's Common Stock, shall be considered a subdivision of Common Stock for purposes of this Section 5.3 at the close of business on the record date with respect to such dividend or stock split. A reverse split of the Company's Common Stock shall be considered a combination of Common Stock for purposes of this Section 5.3 at the close of business on the record date with respect to such reverse stock split. (b) In the event the Company, at any time or from time to time while this Debenture is outstanding, shall make or issue, or fix a record date for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution with respect to the Company's Common Stock payable in securities of the Company other than shares of Common Stock, then and in each such event, provisions shall be made so that the Holder shall receive upon conversion hereof, in addition to the number of shares of Common Stock receivable thereupon, the amount of securities of the Company which he would have received had this Debenture been converted into Common Stock on the date of such event and had the Holder thereafter, during the period from the date of such event to and including the conversion date, retained such securities receivable by him. (c) If while this Debenture is outstanding, the Shares issuable upon conversion of this Debenture shall be changed into the same or a different number of shares of any other class or classes of stock of the Company, whether by recapitalization, reclassification or other exchange (other than a subdivision or combination of shares, or a capital reorganization, merger or sale of assets, provided for elsewhere in this Section 5.3), the Holder shall, upon the conversion of this Debenture, be entitled to receive, in lieu of the Shares which the Holder would have become entitled to receive but for such change, a number of shares of such other class or classes of stock that would have been subject to receipt by the Holder if he had exercised his right of conversion of this Debenture immediately before that change. (d) If while this Debenture is outstanding, there shall be a merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another corporation (other than a merger which does not result in any reclassification, conversion, exchange or cancellation of outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company), or the sale of all or substantially all of the Company's properties and assets to any other person, then, as a part of such merger, consolidation or sale, lawful provision shall be made so that the Holder shall thereafter be entitled to receive upon conversion of this Debenture, during the period specified in this Debenture, the number of shares of stock or other securities or property of the Company, or of the successor corporation resulting from such merger, consolidation or sale, to which a holder of the Shares deliverable upon conversion of this Debenture would have been entitled on such merger, consolidation or sale if this Debenture had been converted immediately before such merger, consolidation or sale. In any such case, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions of this Section 5.3 with respect to the rights of the Holder after such merger, consolidation or sale to the end that the provisions of this Section 5.3 (including adjustments of the Conversion Price then in effect and number of shares purchasable upon conversion of this Debenture) shall continue to be applicable after that event and shall be as nearly equivalent to the provisions hereof as may be practicable. (e) The Company shall promptly and in any case not later than ten (10) days after the date of any adjustment of the Conversion Price give written notice of such adjustment and the number of Shares or other securities issuable upon conversion of this Debenture, by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to the registered Holder at the Holder's address as shown on the Debenture Register. The certificate shall state such adjustment and show in reasonable detail the facts on which such adjustment is based. (f) The form of this Debenture need not be changed because of any adjustment in the Conversion Price or in the number of Shares issuable upon its conversion. A Debenture issued after any adjustment on any partial conversion or upon replacement may continue to express the same Conversion Price and the same number of Shares (appropriately reduced in the case of partial conversion) as are stated on this Debenture as initially issued, and that Conversion Price and that number of Shares shall be considered to have been so changed as of the close of business on the date of the adjustment.
