Right to Exchange this Note. In the event, on or prior to the Maturity Date, the Issuer raises capital through an issuance of any securities junior to the Credit Agreements (in a single transaction or a series of related transactions) from a third party resulting in net proceeds to the Issuer or its Subsidiaries of at least $175,000,000 (the “New Financing”), the Issuer shall promptly inform the Holder of the New Financing by written notice (the “Notice of New Financing”), which shall include a copy of the definitive documents or a summary of the principal economic terms thereof. The Issuer may elect to provide the Notice of New Financing after an agreement in principle has been reached regarding the provision of the New Financing. The Holder shall have the right, exercisable by irrevocable written notice to the Issuer within a period of five (5) Business Days after receipt of the Notice of New Financing to exchange (an “Exchange Transaction”) this Note, in whole, but not in part, valued at the outstanding principal amount of this Note, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, as of the date of the consummation of the Exchange Transaction (the “Note Value”), for one or more securities (the “New Securities”) having, in the aggregate, terms (including economic terms) which are substantially equivalent to the terms contained in the securities issued in the New Financing. The consummation of an Exchange Transaction shall be subject to (i) any required approvals of the senior lenders under the Credit Agreements (“Senior Lender Approvals”); (ii) any required approvals of the subordinated debt and preferred equity holders of the Issuer (“Subordinated Debt and Preferred Equity Approvals”); (iii) any required approvals of the common stockholders of the Issuer in accordance with the rules of the New York Stock Exchange (the “Stockholder Approval”); and (iv) any required regulatory approvals. The Issuer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any Senior Lender Approvals, Subordinated Debt and Preferred Equity Approvals and regulatory approvals that are required to consummate the Exchange Transaction. If the Stockholders Approval is required, the Issuer shall include, in the next proxy statement for a meeting of the Issuer’s stockholders otherwise filed by the Issuer with the Securities and Exchange Commission after the Holder’s election for an Exchange Transaction, an item on the ballot for approval of the stockholders of a proposal to approve the Exchange Transaction. The Exchange Transaction may be consummated, at the Issuer’s election, either concurrently with or as soon as practicable after the New Financing or by definitive agreement subject to the consummation of the New Financing and to the receipt of any such required approvals. Upon the consummation of the Exchange Transaction, this Note shall be deemed satisfied and discharged in full.
