With respect to any record date set pursuant to this Section 1.4(e), the Issuer may designate any date as the Expiration Date and from time to time may change the Expiration Date to any earlier or later day; provided that no such change shall be effective unless notice of the proposed new Expiration Date is given to the Purchase Contract Agent in writing, and to each Holder of Units in the manner set forth in Section 1.6, prior to or on the existing Expiration Date. If an Expiration Date is not designated with respect to any record date set pursuant to this Section, the Issuer shall be deemed to have initially designated the 180th day after such record date as the Expiration Date with respect thereto, subject to its right to change the Expiration Date as provided in this paragraph. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Expiration Date shall be later than the 180th day after the applicable record date.

1.5 Notices

Any notice or communication is duly given if in writing and delivered in person or mailed by first-class mail (registered or certified, return receipt requested) or overnight air courier guaranteeing next day delivery, to the others' address; provided that notice shall be deemed given to the Purchase Contract Agent only upon receipt thereof:

In any case where notice to Holders is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed to any particular Holder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders. Where this Agreement provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed with the Purchase Contract Agent, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver.

The Certificates, on original issuance, will be issued in the form of one or more fully registered Global Certificates, to be delivered to the Depositary or its custodian by, or on behalf of, the Issuer. The Issuer hereby designates DTC as the initial Depositary. Such Global Certificates shall initially be registered on the books and records of the Issuer in the name of Cede & Co., the nominee of the Depositary, and no Beneficial Owner will receive a definitive Certificate representing such Beneficial Owner's interest in such Global Certificate, except as provided in Section 3.9.

3.7 Notices to Holders

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

3.8 Appointment of Successor Depositary

If the Depositary elects to discontinue its services as securities depositary with respect to the Units, the Issuer may, in its sole discretion, appoint a successor Depositary with respect to the Units.

(b): the Depositary ceases to be a "clearing agency" registered under Section 17A of the Exchange Act when the Depositary is required to be so registered to act as the Depositary and so notifies the Issuer, and no successor Depositary has been appointed pursuant to within 90 days after such notice; or

(c): the Issuer determines in its sole discretion that the Global Certificates shall be exchangeable for definitive Certificates,

then (x) definitive Certificates shall be prepared by the Issuer with respect to such Units and delivered to the Purchase Contract Agent and (y) upon surrender of the Global Certificates representing the Units by the Depositary, accompanied by registration instructions, the Issuer shall cause definitive Certificates to be delivered to Beneficial Owners in accordance with the instructions of the Depositary. The Issuer and the Purchase Contract Agent shall not be liable for any delay in delivery of such instructions and may conclusively rely on and shall be authorized and protected in relying on, such instructions. Each definitive Certificate so delivered shall evidence Units of the same kind and tenor as the Global Certificate so surrendered in respect thereof.

3.10 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Certificates

(a)

If any mutilated Certificate is surrendered to the Purchase Contract Agent, the Issuer shall execute and deliver to the Purchase Contract Agent, and the Purchase Contract Agent shall authenticate, execute on behalf of the Holder, and deliver in exchange therefor, a new Certificate, evidencing the same number of Corporate Units or Treasury Units, as the case may be, and bearing a Certificate number not contemporaneously outstanding.

(b)

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

(i): if the Purchase Contract Settlement Date or Early Settlement Date or Cash Merger Early Settlement Date with respect to such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Certificate has occurred, deliver the shares of Common Stock issuable in respect of the Purchase Contracts forming a part of the Units evidenced by such Certificate; or
(ii): if a Cash Settlement with respect to such lost or mutilated Certificate or if a Termination Event shall have occurred prior to the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, transfer the Notes or the Treasury Securities evidenced thereby, in each case subject to the applicable conditions and in accordance with the applicable provisions of Section 3.15 and Article Five hereof.

(d): Upon the issuance of any new Certificate under this Section, the Issuer 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 fees and expenses (including, without limitation, the fees and expenses of the Purchase Contract Agent) connected therewith.
(e): Every new Certificate issued pursuant to this Section in lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Issuer and of the Holder in respect of the Units evidenced thereby, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate (and the Units 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 Certificates delivered hereunder.
(f): The provisions of this Section are exclusive and shall preclude, to the extent lawful, all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificates.

3.11 Persons Deemed Owners

(b): Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any Global Certificate, nothing contained herein shall prevent the Issuer, the Purchase Contract Agent or any agent of the Issuer or the Purchase Contract Agent, from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by the Depositary (or its nominee), as a Holder, with respect to such Global Certificate, or impair, as between such Depositary and the related Beneficial Owner, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of rights of the Depositary (or its nominee) as Holder of such Global Certificate. None of the Issuer, the Purchase Contract Agent or any agent of the Issuer or the Purchase Contract Agent will have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests of a Global Certificate or maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests.

(a): All Certificates surrendered (i) for delivery of shares of Common Stock on or after the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, (ii) upon the transfer of Notes, or for delivery of the Treasury Securities, after the occurrence of a Termination Event or pursuant to a Cash Settlement, an Early Settlement or a Cash Merger Early Settlement, or (iii) upon the registration of transfer or exchange of a Unit, or a Collateral Substitution or the recreation of Corporate Units shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the Purchase Contract Agent, be delivered to the Purchase Contract Agent along with appropriate written instructions regarding the cancellation thereof and, if not already cancelled, shall be promptly cancelled by it. The Issuer may at any time deliver to the Purchase Contract Agent for cancellation any Certificates previously authenticated, executed and delivered hereunder which the Issuer may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and all Certificates so delivered shall, upon an Issuer Order, be promptly cancelled by the Purchase Contract Agent. No Certificates shall be authenticated, executed on behalf of the Holder and delivered in lieu of or in exchange for any Certificates cancelled as provided in this Section, except as expressly permitted by this Agreement. All cancelled Certificates held by the Purchase Contract Agent shall be disposed of in accordance with its customary practices.
(b): If the Issuer or any Affiliate of the Issuer shall acquire any Certificate, such acquisition shall not operate as a cancellation of such Certificate unless and until such Certificate is delivered to the Purchase Contract Agent cancelled or with appropriate written instructions regarding the cancellation thereof.

3.13 Creation of Treasury Units by Substitution of Treasury Securities

(a)

Subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement and unless otherwise provided in the applicable Issuer Order, a Holder may, at any time from and after the date of this Agreement and prior to 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth Business Day immediately preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, effect a Collateral Substitution and separate the Notes from the related Purchase Contracts in respect of such Holder's Corporate Units by substituting for such Notes, Treasury Securities in an aggregate principal amount at maturity equal to the aggregate principal amount of such Notes; provided that Holders may make Collateral Substitutions only in integral multiples of [40] Corporate Units or such other amount as may be designated in the applicable Issuer Order. To effect such substitution, the Holder must:

(i): deposit with the Securities Intermediary Treasury Securities having an aggregate principal amount at maturity equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Notes comprising part of such Corporate Units; and

(ii): transfer the related Corporate Units to the Purchase Contract Agent accompanied by a notice to the Purchase Contract Agent, substantially in the form of Exhibit 3 to this Agreement, (i) stating that the Holder has deposited the relevant amount of Treasury Securities to the Securities Intermediary and (ii) requesting that the Purchase Contract Agent instruct the Collateral Agent to release the Notes underlying such Corporate Units, whereupon the Purchase Contract Agent shall promptly provide an instruction to such effect to the Collateral Agent, substantially in the form of Exhibit [ • ] to the Pledge Agreement.

(b)

Upon receipt of the Treasury Securities described in clause (i) above and the instruction described in clause (ii) above, in accordance with the terms of the Pledge Agreement, the Collateral Agent will cause the Securities Intermediary to effect the release of such Notes from the Pledge, free and clear of the Issuer's security interest therein, and the transfer of such Notes to the Purchase Contract Agent on behalf of the Holder. Upon receipt of such Notes, the Purchase Contract Agent shall promptly:

(i): cancel the related Corporate Units;
(ii): transfer the Notes to the Holder (such Notes shall be tradable as a separate security, independent of the resulting Treasury Units); and
(iii): authenticate, execute on behalf of such Holder and deliver a Treasury Units Certificate executed by the Issuer in accordance with Section 3.3 evidencing the same number of Purchase Contracts as were evidenced by the cancelled Corporate Units. Holders who elect to separate the Notes from the related Purchase Contracts and to substitute Treasury Securities for such Notes shall be responsible for any fees or expenses (including, without limitation, fees and expenses payable to the Collateral Agent for its services as Collateral Agent) in respect of the substitution, and neither the Issuer nor the Purchase Contract Agent shall be responsible for any such fees or expenses.

(c)

In the event a Holder making a Collateral Substitution pursuant to this Section 3.13 fails to effect a book-entry transfer of the Corporate Units or fails to deliver Corporate Units Certificates to the Purchase Contract Agent after depositing Treasury Securities with the Collateral Agent, any distributions on the Notes shall be held in the name of the Purchase Contract Agent or its nominee in trust for the benefit of such Holder, until such Corporate Units are so transferred or the Corporate Units Certificate is so delivered, as the case may be, or, such Holder provides evidence satisfactory to the Issuer and the Purchase Contract Agent that such Corporate Units Certificate has been destroyed, lost or stolen, together with any indemnity that may be required by the Purchase Contract Agent and the Issuer.

(d)

Except as described in Section 5.2 or in this Section 3.13 or in connection with a Cash Settlement, an Early Settlement, a Cash Merger Early Settlement or a Termination Event, for so long as the Purchase Contract underlying a Corporate Unit remains in effect, such Corporate Units shall not be separable into their constituent parts, and the rights and obligations of the Holder in respect of the Notes and the Purchase Contract comprising such Corporate Units may be acquired, and may be transferred and exchanged, only as a Corporate Unit.

3.14 Recreation of Corporate Units

(a)

Subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement and unless otherwise provided in the applicable Issuer Order, a Holder of Treasury Units may recreate Corporate Units at any time on or prior to 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth Business Day immediately preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement Date; provided that Holders of Treasury Units may only recreate Corporate Units in integral multiples of [40] Treasury Units or such other amount as may be designated in the applicable Issuer Order. To recreate Corporate Units, the Holder must:

(i): transfer to the Securities Intermediary Notes having an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount at stated maturity of the Treasury Securities comprising part of the Treasury Units; and
(ii): transfer the related Treasury Units to the Purchase Contract Agent accompanied by a notice to the Purchase Contract Agent, substantially in the form of Exhibit 3 to this Agreement, (i) stating that the Holder has transferred the relevant amount of Notes to the Securities Intermediary and (ii) requesting that the Purchase Contract Agent instruct the Collateral Agent to release the Treasury Securities underlying such Treasury Units, whereupon the Purchase Contract Agent shall promptly provide an instruction to such effect to the Collateral Agent, substantially in the form of Exhibit [ • ] to the Pledge Agreement.

(b)

Upon receipt of the Notes described in clause (1) above and the instruction described in clause (2) above, in accordance with the terms of the Pledge Agreement, the Collateral Agent will cause the Securities Intermediary to effect the release of the Treasury Securities having a corresponding aggregate principal amount at maturity from the Pledge, free and clear of the Issuer's security interest therein, and the transfer thereof to the Purchase Contract Agent on behalf of the Holder. Upon receipt of such Treasury Securities, the Purchase Contract Agent shall promptly:

(i): cancel the related Treasury Units;
(ii): transfer the Treasury Securities to the Holder; and

Holders who elect to recreate Corporate Units shall be responsible for any fees or expenses (including, without limitation, fees and expenses payable to the Collateral Agent for its services as Collateral Agent) in respect of the recreation, and neither the Issuer nor the Purchase Contract Agent shall be responsible for any such fees or expenses.

Except as provided in Section 5.2 or in this Section 3.14 or in connection with a Cash Settlement, an Early Settlement, a Cash Merger Early Settlement or a Termination Event, for so long as the Purchase Contract underlying a Treasury Unit remains in effect, such Treasury Unit shall not be separable into its constituent parts and the rights and obligations of the Holder of such Treasury Unit in respect of the [1/40^th] of a Treasury Security and the Purchase Contract comprising such Treasury Unit may be acquired, and may be transferred and exchanged, only as a Treasury Unit.

(a)

Upon the occurrence of a Termination Event and the transfer to the Purchase Contract Agent of the Notes or the Treasury Securities, as the case may be, underlying the Corporate Units and the Treasury Units, as the case may be, pursuant to the terms of the Pledge Agreement, the Purchase Contract Agent shall request transfer instructions with respect to such Notes or Treasury Securities, as the case may be, from each Holder by written request, substantially in the form of Exhibit 4 to this Agreement, mailed to such Holder at its address as it appears in the Security Register.

(b)

Upon book-entry transfer of the Corporate Units or the Treasury Units or delivery of a Corporate Units Certificate or Treasury Units Certificate to the Purchase Contract Agent with such transfer instructions from such Holder as requested by the Purchase Contract Agent in accordance with subparagraph (a) of this Section 3.15, the Purchase Contract Agent shall transfer the Notes or Treasury Securities, as the case may be, underlying such Corporate Units or Treasury Units, as the case may be, to such Holder by book-entry transfer, or other appropriate procedures, in accordance with such instructions. In the event a Holder of Corporate Units or Treasury Units fails to effect such transfer or delivery, the Notes or Treasury Securities, as the case may be, underlying such Corporate Units or Treasury Units, as the case may be, and any distributions thereon, 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 transfer of such Corporate Units or Treasury Units, the surrender of the Corporate Units Certificate or Treasury Units Certificate or the receipt by the Issuer and the Purchase Contract Agent from such Holder of satisfactory evidence that such Corporate Units Certificate or Treasury Units Certificate has been destroyed, lost or stolen, together with any indemnity that may be required by the Purchase Contract Agent and the Issuer; and
(ii): the expiration of the time period specified in the abandoned property laws of the state in which the Purchase Contract Agent holds such property.

3.16 No Consent to Assumption

[Each Holder of a Unit, by acceptance thereof, shall be deemed expressly to have withheld any consent to the assumption under Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise, of the Purchase Contract by the Issuer or its trustee, receiver, liquidator or a person or entity performing similar functions in the event that the Issuer becomes the debtor under the Bankruptcy Code or subject to other similar state or Federal law providing for reorganization or liquidation.]

(iii): stating the manner in which such instructions may be given.

(b)

(i): the designation of the Purchase Contracts of the series, which shall distinguish the Purchase Contracts of the series from the Purchase Contracts of all other series;

All Purchase Contracts of any one series shall be substantially identical, except as may otherwise be provided by or pursuant to the Board Resolution or Officers' Certificate referred to above or as set forth in any such agreement supplemental hereto. All Purchase Contracts of any one series need not be issued at the same time and may be issued from time to time, consistent with the terms of this Agreement, if so provided by or pursuant to such Board Resolution, such Officers' Certificate or in such agreement supplemental hereto.

(b)

Each Purchase Contract shall obligate the Holder of the related Units to purchase or subscribe for, as the case may be, and the Issuer to sell or issue, as the case may be, on the Purchase Contract Settlement Date at a price equal to the Stated Amount (the Purchase Price), a number of newly issued shares of Common Stock (subject to Section 5.9) equal to the Settlement Rate unless an Early Settlement, a Cash Merger Early Settlement or a Termination Event with respect to the Units of which such Purchase Contract is a part shall have occurred. The Settlement Rate is equal to:

(i): if the Adjusted Applicable Market Value (as defined below) is greater than or equal to the amount so designated in the applicable Issuer Order (the Threshold Appreciation Price), the number of shares of Common Stock per Purchase Contract so designated the applicable Issuer Order;
(ii): if the Adjusted Applicable Market Value is less than the Threshold Appreciation Price but greater than the amount so designated in the applicable Issuer Order (the Reference Price), the number of shares of Common Stock per Purchase Contact having a value equal to the Stated Amount divided by the Adjusted Applicable Market Value; or
(iii): if the Adjusted Applicable Market Value is less than or equal to the Reference Price, the number of shares of Common Stock per Purchase Contract;

in each case subject to adjustment as provided in Section 5.4 (and in each case rounded upward or downward to the nearest 1/10,000th of a share).

The Closing Price of Common Stock on any date of determination means the closing sale price of the Common Stock on Euronext Amsterdam, or any successor to it, on such date or, if the Common Stock is not listed for trading on Euronext Amsterdam on any such date, the market value of the Common Stock in euro on the date of determination as determined by an internationally recognized independent investment banking firm retained by the Issuer for this purpose.

A Trading Day means a day on which the Common Stock (1) is not suspended from trading on any national or regional securities exchange or association or over-the-counter market at the close of business and (2) has traded at least once on the national or regional securities exchange or association or over-the-counter market that is the primary market for the trading of the Common Stock.

provided that upon a Termination Event, the rights of the Holder of such Units under the Purchase Contract may be enforced without regard to any other rights or obligations.

(e): Upon registration of transfer of a Certificate, the transferee shall be bound (without the necessity of any other action on the part of such transferee) by the terms of this Agreement, the Purchase Contracts underlying such Certificate and the Pledge Agreement and the transferor shall be released from the obligations under this Agreement, the Purchase Contracts underlying the Certificate so transferred and the Pledge Agreement. The Issuer covenants and agrees, and each Holder of a Certificate, by its acceptance thereof, likewise covenants and agrees, to be bound by the provisions of this paragraph.
(f): The applicable Issuer Order may specify additional rights and/or obligations of the holder of Common Stock.

5.2 Remarketing; Payment of Purchase Price

(a): (i) The Issuer shall engage the Remarketing Agent pursuant to the Remarketing Agreement for Remarketing the Notes. By 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the Business Day immediately preceding the Remarketing Date, the Purchase Contract Agent shall notify the Remarketing Agent of the aggregate principal amount of Pledged Notes, and the Custodial Agent shall notify the Remarketing Agent of the aggregate principal amount of Separate Notes (if any) that are to be remarketed pursuant to clause (ii) below. Concurrently, the Custodial Agent, pursuant to clause (ii) below, will present for Remarketing the Separate Notes, to the Remarketing Agent. Upon receipt of such notice from the Purchase Contract Agent and Custodial Agent and the Pledged Notes and Separate Notes (if any) from the Collateral Agent and Custodial Agent, the Remarketing Agent will, on the Remarketing Date, use its reasonable efforts to remarket (based on the Reset Rate) (the Remarketing) such Pledged Notes and Separate Notes on such date at a price as designated in the applicable Issuer Order.

If the Remarketing Agent is able to remarket the Notes and Separate Notes at a price equal to or greater than 100% (net of the Remarketing Fee and any other fees and commissions) of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes and Separate Notes (if any) (a Successful Remarketing), the Remarketing Agent will remit the proceeds attributable to the Remarketing of the Pledged Notes from such Successful Remarketing to the Collateral Agent. The Remarketing Agent shall deduct as a remarketing fee (the Remarketing Fee) an amount as designated in the applicable Issuer Order. Upon receipt of the proceeds attributable to the Remarketing, the Collateral Agent shall cause the Securities Intermediary to transfer the Pledged Notes to the Purchase Contract Agent for disposition in accordance with instructions from the Remarketing Agent.

None of the Issuer, the Purchase Contract Agent, or any Holders of Corporate Units or holders of Separate Notes whose Notes or Separate Notes are so remarketed will otherwise be responsible for the payment of any Remarketing Fee in connection therewith. With respect to Separate Notes, any proceeds of the Remarketing in excess of the Remarketing Fee attributable to the Separate Notes will be remitted to the Custodial Agent for payment to the holders of Separate Notes. The proceeds from the Remarketing remitted to the Collateral Agent shall be invested by the Collateral Agent in Permitted Investments, in accordance with the Pledge Agreement, and then applied to satisfy in full the obligations of such Holders of Corporate Units to pay the Purchase Price for the shares of Common Stock under the related Purchase Contracts, less the amount of any Deferred Contract Adjustment Payments payable to such Holders, on the Purchase Contract Settlement Date. Any proceeds in excess of those required to pay the Purchase Price and the Remarketing Fee will be remitted to the Purchase Contract Agent for payment to the Holders of the related Corporate Units. With respect to Pledged Notes, any proceeds of the Remarketing in excess of the Remarketing Fee will be remitted to the Purchase Contract Agent for payment to the Holders of the related Corporate Units.

(ii): Prior to 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth Business Day immediately preceding the Remarketing Date, but no earlier than the Payment Date immediately preceding such date, Holders of Separate Notes may elect to have their Separate Notes remarketed under the Remarketing Agreement by delivering their Separate Notes, along with a notice of such election, substantially in the form of Exhibit 6 to the Pledge Agreement, to the Custodial Agent. After such time, such election shall become an irrevocable election to have such Separate Notes remarketed in such Remarketing. The Custodial Agent shall hold Separate Notes in an account separate from the Collateral Account in which the Pledged Notes (as defined in the Pledge Agreement) shall be held. Holders of Separate Notes electing to have their Separate Notes remarketed will also have the right to withdraw that election by written notice to the Custodial Agent, substantially in the form of Exhibit 7 to the Pledge Agreement, on or prior to 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth Business Day immediately preceding the Remarketing Date, upon which notice the Custodial Agent shall return such Separate Notes to such Holder. Promptly after 11:00 a.m. on the Business Day immediately preceding the Remarketing Date, the Custodial Agent shall notify the Remarketing Agent of the aggregate principal amount of the Separate Notes to be remarketed and will deliver to the Remarketing Agent for remarketing all such Separate Notes delivered to the Custodial Agent pursuant to Section 5.7(c) of the Pledge Agreement and not validly withdrawn prior to such date.
(iii): Not later than seven calendar days nor more than 15 calendar days prior to the Remarketing Date, the Issuer shall request the Depositary or its nominee to notify the Beneficial Owners or Depositary Participants holding Units of the procedures to be followed in such Remarketing, including, in the case of a Failed Remarketing, the procedures to be followed if a Holder wishes to exercise its Put Right(s).
(iv): The Issuer agrees to use its reasonable efforts to ensure that, if required by applicable law, a registration statement with regard to the full amount of the Notes to be remarketed in the Remarketing shall be effective with the Securities and Exchange Commission in a form that will enable the Remarketing Agent to rely on it in connection with such Remarketing.

(b): (i) Unless an Early Settlement or a Cash Merger Early Settlement has occurred, each Holder of Corporate Units shall have the right to satisfy such Holder's obligations under the Purchase Contract on the Purchase Contract Settlement Date in cash by notifying the Purchase Contract Agent by use of a notice in substantially the form of Exhibit 5 to this Agreement of its intention to pay in cash (Cash Settlement) prior to 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth Business Day immediately preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement Date. Promptly following 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth Business Day immediately preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, the Purchase Contract Agent shall notify the Collateral Agent and the Indenture Trustee of the receipt of such notices from Holders intending to make a Cash Settlement.

(ii): A Holder of a Corporate Unit who has so notified the Purchase Contract Agent of its intention to effect a Cash Settlement shall pay the Purchase Price to the Collateral Agent for deposit in the Collateral Account prior to 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fourth Business Day immediately preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, in lawful money of the United States by certified or cashiers' check or wire transfer, in each case in immediately available funds payable to or upon the order of the Securities Intermediary. Any cash received by the Collateral Agent shall be invested promptly by the Securities Intermediary in Permitted Investments pursuant to written instructions received from the Issuer and paid to the Issuer on the Purchase Contract Settlement Date in settlement of the Purchase Contracts in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Pledge Agreement. Any funds received by the Securities Intermediary in respect of the investment earnings from such Permitted Investments in excess of the Purchase Price for the shares of Common Stock to be purchased by such Holder shall be distributed to the Purchase Contract Agent when received for payment to the Holder.
(iii): If a Holder of a Corporate Unit does not notify the Purchase Contract Agent of its intention to make a Cash Settlement in accordance with paragraph 5.2(b)(i) above, or does notify the Purchase Contract Agent in accordance with paragraph 5.2(b)(i) above but fails to make such payment as required by paragraph 5.2(b)(ii) above, such Holder shall be deemed to have consented to the disposition of the Pledged Notes pursuant to the Remarketing as described in paragraph 5.2(a) above.
(iv): Promptly after 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fourth Business Day preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, the Collateral Agent, based on cash payments received by the Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 5.2(b)(ii) hereof, shall promptly notify the Purchase Contract Agent and the Indenture Trustee of the aggregate principal amount of Notes to be tendered for purchase in the Remarketing in a notice pursuant to the terms of the Pledge Agreement.

(c)

If, in spite of using its reasonable efforts, the Remarketing Agent cannot remarket all of the Pledged Notes and Separate Notes (if any) at a price not less than 100% (net of the Remarketing Fee and any other fees and commissions) of the aggregate principal amount of the Pledged Notes and Separate Notes to be remarketed in the Remarketing or a condition precedent set forth in the Remarketing Agreement is not fulfilled, the remarketing will be deemed to have failed (a Failed Remarketing). In the event of a Failed Remarketing, the Remarketing Agent shall use its reasonable efforts to remarket the Pledged Notes and Separate Notes (if any) such number of subsequent times as shall be designated in the applicable Issuer Order. If a Failed Remarketing shall have occurred for each required remarketing, the Issuer shall cause a notice of a Failed Remarketing to be published (with a copy of such notice to be provided to the Purchase Contract Agent) on the Business Day immediately following the Remarketing Date, in a daily newspaper in the English language of general circulation in The City of New York, which is expected to be The Wall Street Journal. Following a Failed Remarketing, as of the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, each Holder of any Pledged Notes that are subject to a Failed Remarketing, and any Notes that are a component of a Corporate Unit with respect to which the Holder has notified the Purchase Contract Agent of an intent to effect Cash Settlement pursuant to Section 5.2(b)(i) or Section 5.2(d)(i) and failed to deliver the Purchase Price pursuant to Section 5.2(b)(ii) or Section 5.2(d)(ii), shall be deemed to have exercised such Holder's Put Right with respect to such Notes and to have authorized the Collateral Agent to pay, in the manner provided for in the Pledge Agreement, the Purchase Price for the shares of Common Stock to be issued under the related Purchase Contract from a portion of the Proceeds of the Put Right in full satisfaction of such Holder's obligations under the related Purchase Contracts, provided that if the Issuer shall fail to pay the Put Price when due, the Issuer shall be deemed to have netted such Holder's obligation to pay the Issuer the Purchase Price under the Purchase Contracts against the Issuer's obligation to pay the Put Price, in full satisfaction of such Holder's obligation under the Purchase Contracts.

(d)

(i) Each Holder of a Corporate Unit who intends to effect a Cash Settlement of the underlying Purchase Contract following a Failed Remarketing shall so notify the Purchase Contract Agent by use of a notice in substantially the form of Exhibit 5 to this Agreement prior to 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the second Business Day immediately preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement Date. Promptly following 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the second Business Day immediately preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, the Purchase Contract Agent shall notify the Collateral Agent and the Indenture Trustee of the receipt of such notices from Holders intending to make a Cash Settlement.

(ii): A Holder of a Corporate Unit who has so notified the Purchase Contract Agent of its intention to effect a Cash Settlement shall pay the Purchase Price to the Collateral Agent for deposit in the Collateral Account prior to 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the Business Day immediately preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, in lawful money of the United States by certified or cashiers' check or wire transfer, in each case in immediately available funds payable to or upon the order of the Collateral Agent.
(iii): If a Holder of a Corporate Unit does not notify the Purchase Contract Agent of its intention to make a Cash Settlement in accordance with Section 5.2(d)(i) above, or does notify the Purchase Contract Agent in accordance with Section 5.2(d)(i) above but fails to make such payment as required by Section 5.2(d)(ii) above, such Holder shall be deemed to have automatically exercised such Holder's Put Right following a Failed Remarketing as described in paragraph Section 5.2(c) above.

(e)

Any distribution to Holders of any payments described above shall be payable at the office of the Purchase Contract Agent in New York City maintained for that purpose or, at the option of the Holder, by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto at such address as it appears on the Security Register or by wire transfer to an account specified by the Holder.

(f)

Upon Cash Settlement of any Purchase Contract:

(i): the Collateral Agent will in accordance with the terms of the Pledge Agreement cause the Pledged Notes underlying the relevant Corporate Units to be released from the Pledge, free and clear of any security interest of the Issuer, and transferred to the Purchase Contract Agent for delivery to the Holder thereof or its designee as soon as practicable; and
(ii): subject to the receipt thereof, the Purchase Contract Agent shall, by book-entry transfer or other appropriate procedures, in accordance with written instructions provided by the Holder thereof, transfer such Notes or, if no such instructions are given to the Purchase Contract Agent by the Holder, the Purchase Contract Agent shall hold such Notes, and any interest payment thereon, in the name of the Purchase Contract Agent or its nominee in trust for the benefit of such Holder until the expiration of the time period specified in the abandoned property laws of the relevant state where such property is held).

(g)

The obligations of the Holders to pay the Purchase Price are non-recourse obligations and, except to the extent satisfied by Early Settlement, Cash Merger Early Settlement or Cash Settlement, are payable solely out of the proceeds of any Collateral pledged to secure the obligations of the Holders, and in no event will Holders be liable for any deficiency between the proceeds of the disposition of Collateral and the Purchase Price.

(h)

The Issuer shall not be obligated to issue any shares of Common Stock in respect of a Purchase Contract or deliver any certificates thereof to the Holder of the related Units unless the Issuer shall have received payment for the Common Stock to be purchased thereunder in the manner herein set forth.

5.3 Issuance of Shares of Common Stock

Unless a Termination Event, an Early Settlement or a Cash Merger Early Settlement shall have occurred, subject to Section 5.4(b), on the Purchase Contract Settlement Date upon receipt of the aggregate Purchase Price payable on all Outstanding Units, the Issuer shall issue and deposit with the Purchase Contract Agent, for the benefit of the Holders of the Outstanding Units, one or more certificates representing newly issued shares of Common Stock registered in the name of the Purchase Contract Agent (or its nominee) as custodian for the Holders (such certificates for shares of Common Stock, together with any dividends or distributions for which a record date and payment date for such dividend or distribution has occurred after the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, being hereinafter referred to as the Purchase Contract Settlement Fund) to which the Holders are entitled hereunder.

Subject to the foregoing, upon surrender of a Certificate to the Purchase Contract Agent on or after the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, Early Settlement Date or Cash Merger Early Settlement Date, as the case may be, together with settlement instructions thereon duly completed and executed, the Holder of such Certificate shall be entitled to receive forthwith in exchange therefor a certificate representing that number of newly issued whole shares of Common Stock which such Holder is entitled to receive pursuant to the provisions of this Article Five (after taking into account all Units then held by such Holder), together with cash in lieu of fractional shares as provided in Section 5.9 and any dividends or distributions with respect to such shares constituting part of the Purchase Contract Settlement Fund, but without any interest thereon, and the Certificate so surrendered shall forthwith be cancelled. Such shares 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. If any shares of Common Stock issued in respect of a Purchase Contract are to be registered to a Person other than the Person in whose name the Certificate evidencing such Purchase Contract is registered (but excluding any Depositary or nominee thereof), no such registration shall be made unless the Person requesting such registration has paid any transfer and other taxes required by reason of such registration in a name other than that of the registered Holder of the Certificate evidencing such Purchase Contract or has established to the satisfaction of the Issuer that such tax either has been paid or is not payable.

5.4 Adjustment of Settlement Rate

(a)

Adjustments for Dividends, Distributions, Stock Splits, Etc.

(i): Stock Dividends

In case the Issuer shall pay or make any dividend or distribution consisting of Common Stock to all holders of the Common Stock, the Settlement Rate in effect at the close of business on the date fixed for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such dividend or other distribution shall be increased by dividing such Settlement Rate by a fraction of which, unless otherwise provided in the applicable Issuer Order:

(A): the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at the close of business on the date fixed for such determination; and
(B): the denominator shall be the sum of such number of shares and the total number of shares constituting such dividend or other distribution,

such increase to become effective immediately at the opening of business on the day following the date fixed for such determination.

For the purposes of this paragraph (i), the number of shares of Common Stock at any time outstanding shall not include shares held in the treasury of the Issuer but shall include any shares issuable in respect of any scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of shares of Common Stock. The Issuer agrees that it shall not pay any dividend or make any distribution on shares of Common Stock held in the treasury of the Issuer.

(ii): Stock Purchase Rights

In case the Issuer shall issue rights, warrants, purchase contracts, options or other securities, to all holders of Common Stock (not being available on an equivalent basis to Holders of the Units upon settlement of the Purchase Contracts underlying such Units) entitling them, for a period expiring within 45 days after the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such rights, warrants, purchase contracts, options or other securities, 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 on the date of announcement of such issuance, the Settlement Rate in effect at the close of business on the date of such announcement shall be increased by dividing such Settlement Rate by a fraction of which, unless otherwise provided in the applicable Issuer Order:

(A): the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at the close of business on the date of such announcement plus the number of shares of Common Stock which the aggregate of the offering price of the total number of shares of Common Stock so offered for subscription or purchase would purchase at such Current Market Price; and
(B): the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at the close of business on the date of such announcement plus the number of shares of Common Stock so offered for subscription or purchase,

such increase to become effective immediately after the opening of business on the Business Day following the date of such announcement.

The Issuer agrees that it shall notify the Purchase Contract Agent if any issuance of such rights, warrants or options is cancelled or not completed following the announcement thereof and the Settlement Rate shall thereupon be readjusted to the Settlement Rate in effect immediately prior to the date of such announcement. For the purposes of this subparagraph (B), the number of shares of Common Stock at any time outstanding shall not include shares held in the treasury of the Issuer but shall include any shares issuable in respect of any scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of shares of Common Stock. The Issuer agrees that it shall not issue any such rights, warrants, options, purchase contracts or other securities in respect of shares of Common Stock held in the treasury of the Issuer.

(iii): Stock Splits; Reverse Splits

Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Issuer Order, in case outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be subdivided or split into a greater number of shares of Common Stock, the Settlement Rate in effect at the close of business on the day preceding the day upon which such subdivision or split becomes effective shall be proportionately increased, and, conversely, in case outstanding shares of Common Stock shall each be combined into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, the Settlement Rate in effect at the close of business on the day preceding the day upon which such combination becomes effective shall be proportionately reduced, such increase or reduction, as the case may be, to become effective immediately at the opening of business on the day following the day upon which such subdivision, split or combination becomes effective.

(iv): Debt or Asset Distributions

In case the Issuer shall, by dividend or otherwise, distribute to all holders of its Common Stock evidences of its indebtedness or assets (including shares of capital stock, securities, cash and property but excluding any rights, warrants or options referred to in Section 5.4(a)(ii), any dividend or distribution paid exclusively in cash and any dividend or distribution referred to in Section 5.4(a)(i)), the Settlement Rate in effect at the close of business on the date fixed for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such distribution shall be adjusted by dividing such rate by a fraction of which, unless otherwise provided in the applicable Issuer Order:

(A): the numerator shall be the Current Market Price per share of Common Stock on the date fixed for such determination less the then fair market value (as reasonably determined by the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive and the basis for which shall be described in a Board Resolution) of the portion of the assets or evidences of indebtedness so distributed applicable to one share of Common Stock; and
(B): the denominator shall be such Current Market Price per share of Common Stock,

such adjustment to become effective at the opening of business on the day following the date fixed for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such distribution. In any case in which this paragraph (iv) is applicable, paragraph (ii) of this Section 5.4(a) shall not be applicable. In the event that such dividend or distribution is not so paid or made, the Settlement Rate shall again be adjusted to be the Settlement Rate which would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared.

(v): Cash Distributions

Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Issuer Order, in case the Issuer shall, by dividend or otherwise, distribute to all holders of its Common Stock exclusively cash (excluding cash that is distributed in a Reorganization Event to which Section 5.4(b) applies, as part of a distribution referred to in paragraph (iv) of this Section or as a regular periodic cash dividend or distribution) to the extent that the aggregate cash distribution pursuant to this Section 5.4(a)(v) plus (1) all other cash distributions (other than regular periodic cash dividend or distributions) to all holders of its Common Stock made exclusively in cash within the twelve months preceding the date of such cash distribution and in which no prior adjustment pursuant to this Section or Section 5.4(a)(vi) has been made and (2) any cash and fair market value (as reasonably determined by the Issuer, whose determination shall be conclusive and the basis for which shall be described in a Board Resolution), calculated as of the expiration of the tender or exchange referred to in Section 5.4(a)(vi), of consideration payable in respect of any tender or exchange offer (other than consideration payable in respect of an odd-lot tender offer) by the Issuer or any subsidiary of the Issuer for all or any portion of Common Stock expiring within twelve months preceding the expiration of such tender or exchange offer and in respect of which no adjustment pursuant to this Section 5.4(a)(v) has been made, exceeds the amount designated in the applicable Issuer Order multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on the Record Date for such distribution, then, in such case, the Settlement Rate shall be increased so that the same shall equal the rate determined by dividing the Settlement Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on such record date by a fraction of which, unless otherwise provided in the applicable Issuer Order:

(A): the numerator shall be the Current Market Price of Common Stock on such record date less the amount of cash so distributed (and not excluded as provided above) applicable to one share of Common Stock; and
(B): the denominator shall be the Current Market Price of Common Stock,

such increase to be effective immediately prior to the opening of business on the day following the record date; provided, however, that in the event the portion of cash so distributed applicable to one share of Common Stock is equal to or greater than the Current Market Price per share of Common Stock on the record date, in lieu of the foregoing adjustment, adequate provision shall be made so that each holder of a Unit shall have the right to receive upon settlement of the Units the amount of cash such Holder would have received had such Holder settled each Unit on the record date. In the event that such dividend or distribution is not so paid or made, the Settlement Rate shall again be adjusted to be the Settlement Rate which would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared.

(vi): Tender Offers

Unless otherwise provided in an Issuer Order, the successful completion of a tender or exchange offer (other than an odd-lot tender offer) made by the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries or any third party with the agreement of the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries for the Common Stock that involves (1) an aggregate consideration to be paid in such tender offer or exchange offer (as reasonably determined by the Issuer) having a fair market value that, when combined with (2) any cash and the fair market value(as reasonably determined by the Issuer), as of the expiration of such tender or exchange offer, of other consideration payable in respect of any tender or exchange offer(other than consideration payable in respect of any odd-lot tender offer), by the Issuer or any of the Issuer' subsidiaries completed within the same fiscal year as such tender or exchange offer and in respect of which no adjustment pursuant to this paragraph (vi) has been made, and (3) the aggregate amount of any distributions (other than regular periodic cash dividends or distributions) to all holders of common Stock made exclusively in cash within the same fiscal year as such tender or exchange offer and in respect of which no adjustment pursuant to paragraph (v) has been made, exceeds an amount to be designated in an Issuer Order of the Issuer' aggregate market capitalization on the expiration of such tender or exchange offer (the Expiration Time) then, the Settlement Rate in effect at the close of business on the day of the Expiration Time shall be adjusted by dividing it by a fraction unless otherwise provided in the applicable Issuer Order:

(A): the numerator of which shall be equal to (A) the product of (i) the Current Market Price per share of Common Stock on the date of the Expiration Time and (II) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (including any tendered shares) on the date of the Expiration Time less (B) the amount of cash plus the fair market value (determined as aforesaid) of the aggregate consideration payable to shareholders based on the transactions described in clauses (1), (2) and (3) above (assuming in the case of clause (1) the acceptance, up to any maximum specified in the terms of the tender or exchange offer, of Purchased Shares); and
(B): the denominator of which shall be equal to the product of (A) the Current Market Price per share of Common Stock as of the Expiration Time and (B) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (including any tendered shares) as of the Expiration Time less the number of all shares validly tendered and not withdrawn as of the Expiration Time (the shares deemed so accepted, up to any such maximum, being referred to as the Purchased Shares),

such adjustment to become effective at the opening of business on the date following the date of the Expiration Time.

(vii)

The Issuer Order may provide for adjustments related to the following events:

(A): an alteration to the nominal value of the Common Stock as a result of consolidation, redenomination or subdivision of the Common Shares;
(B): the Issuer issues or sells Common Stock, or causes the Common Stock to be issued or sold, for a sale price that is less than a percentage, to be designated in the applicable Issuer Order, of the then Current Market Price per share on the date of the pricing of such Common Shares; and

(C): the Issuer issues and sells, or causes to be issued and sold, securities for cash that are convertible or exchangeable into or otherwise exercisable for the Common Stock and the sale price per equity-linked security, together with any other consideration received or to be received by the Issuer in respect of such equity-linked security, is less than a percentage, to be designated in the applicable Issuer Order, of the then Current Market Price per share on the date of the pricing of such newly issued equity-linked securities.

(viii): Reclassification

The reclassification of Common Stock into securities including securities other than Common Stock (other than any reclassification upon a Reorganization Event to which Section 5.4(b) applies) shall be deemed to involve unless otherwise provided in the applicable Issuer Order:

(A): a distribution of such securities other than Common Stock to all holders of Common Stock (and the effective date of such reclassification shall be deemed to be "the date fixed for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such distribution" and the "date fixed for such determination" within the meaning of Section 5.4(a)(iv)); and
(B): a subdivision, split or combination, as the case may be, of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such reclassification into the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately thereafter (and the effective date of such reclassification shall be deemed to be "the day upon which such subdivision or split becomes effective" or "the day upon which such combination becomes effective", as the case may be, and "the day upon which such subdivision, split or combination becomes effective" within the meaning of Section 5.4(a)(iii)).

(ix): Current Market Price

The Current Market Price per share of Common Stock on any date of determination means the average of the daily Closing Prices for the five consecutive Trading Days selected by the Issuer commencing not more than thirty (30) Trading Days before and ending not later than the earlier of such date of determination and the day before the "ex date" with respect to the issuance or distribution requiring such computation. For purposes of this paragraph, the term "ex date," when used with respect to any issuance or distribution, shall mean the first date on which Common Stock trades regularly on such exchange or in such market without the right to receive such issuance or distribution.

(x): Calculation of Adjustments

All adjustments to the Settlement Rate shall be calculated to the nearest 1/10,000th of a share of Common Stock (or if there is not a nearest 1/10,000th of a share, to the next lower 1/10,000th of a share). No adjustment in the Settlement Rate shall be required unless such adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least [one] percent thereof; provided, however, that any adjustments which by reason of this subparagraph are not required to be made shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment.

(xi): Increase of Settlement Rate

The Issuer may, but shall not be required to, make such increases in the Settlement Rate, in addition to those required by this Section, as the Issuer's Board of Directors considers to be advisable in order to avoid or diminish any income tax to any holders of shares of Common Stock resulting from any dividend or distribution of stock or issuance of rights or warrants to purchase or subscribe for stock or from any event treated as such for income tax purposes or for any other reason.

In any event, no adjustment will be made to the Settlement Rate where the Common Stock or other securities (including rights, warrants or options) are issued, offered, exercised, allotted, appropriated, modified or granted to eligible individuals (including members of the Board of Directors) pursuant to any manager's or employees' share option or incentive plan of the Issuer, as such plans may be established, amended, supplemented or renewed.

The Settlement Rate may not be reduced so that, on settlement of the Purchase Contracts, the Common Stock would be issued at a discount to their par value.

(b)

Adjustment for Consolidation, Merger, Conversion or Other Reorganization Event.

(i)

Unless otherwise provided in an applicable Issuer Order, in the event of:

(A): any consolidation or merger of the Issuer with or into another Person (other than a merger or consolidation in which such Issuer is the continuing corporation and in which the shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the merger or consolidation are not exchanged for cash, securities or other property of the Issuer or another corporation);
(B): any sale, transfer, lease or conveyance to another Person of the property of the Issuer as an entirety or substantially as an entirety;
(C): any statutory share exchange of the Issuer with another Person (other than in connection with a merger or acquisition); or
(D): any liquidation, dissolution or termination of the Issuer other than as a result of or after the occurrence of a Termination Event

(any event described in clauses (A), (B), (C) and (D) a Reorganization Event), each Purchase Contract shall become, without the consent of the Holder of the Unit representing such Purchase Contract, an agreement to purchase only the kind of securities, cash and other property receivable upon consummation of such Reorganization Event by a holder of Common Stock immediately prior to the closing date of such Reorganization Event.

The amount of such securities, cash and other property receivable upon settlement of each such Purchase Contract after the consummation of the Reorganization Event shall be the amount of securities, cash and other property receivable upon such Reorganization Event (without any interest thereon, and without any right to dividends or distribution thereon which have a record date that is prior to the Purchase Contract Settlement Date) (collectively, the Exchange Property) by a Holder of the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on account of each Purchase Contract if the Purchase Contract Settlement Date had occurred immediately prior to such Reorganization Event. In determining the kind and amount of Exchange Property pursuant to the foregoing, it will be assumed that such holder of Common Stock is not a Person with which the Issuer consolidated or into which the Issuer merged or which merged into the Issuer or to which such sale or transfer was made, as the case may be (any such Person, a Constituent Person), or an Affiliate of a Constituent Person to the extent such Reorganization Event provides for different treatment of Common Stock held by Affiliates of the Issuer and non-affiliates and such Holder failed to exercise its rights of election, if any, as to the kind or amount of securities, cash and other property receivable upon such Reorganization Event (provided that if the kind or amount of securities, cash and other property receivable upon such Reorganization Event is not the same for each share of Common Stock held immediately prior to such Reorganization Event by other than a Constituent Person or an Affiliate thereof and in respect of which such rights of election shall not have been exercised (Non-Electing Share), then for the purpose of this Section 5.4 the kind and amount of securities, cash and other property receivable upon such Reorganization Event by each Non-Electing Share shall be deemed to be the kind and amount so receivable per share by a plurality of the Non-Electing Shares).

The actual amount of Exchange Property receivable upon settlement of each Purchase Contract shall be (1) in the case of settlement on the Purchase Contract Settlement Date or pursuant to Section 5.4(b)(i), a variable amount based upon the applicable Settlement Rate and the Adjusted Applicable Market Value of the Exchange Property at such time and (2) in the case of any Early Settlement, determined in accordance with the procedures described under Section 5.7 using the Settlement Rate that results in the minimum amount of Exchange Property being delivered under such Purchase Contract.

For purposes of this Section 5.4(b)(i) and Section 5.4(b)(ii), the term "Adjusted Applicable Market Value" shall be deemed to refer to the "Adjusted Applicable Market Value"of the Exchange Property, and such value shall be determined (A) with respect to any publicly traded securities that compose all or part of the Exchange Property, based on the Closing Price of such securities, (B) in the case of any cash that composes all or part of the Exchange Property, based on the amount of such cash and (C) in the case of any other property that composes 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 Issuer for this purpose; provided that prior to the separation of the Rights or any similar shareholder rights from the Common Stock, such Rights or similar shareholder rights shall be deemed to have no value. The term "Closing Price" shall be deemed to refer to the closing sale price, last quoted bid price or mid-point of the last bid and ask prices, as the case may be, of any publicly traded securities that comprise all or part of the Exchange Property. The term "Trading Day" shall be deemed to refer to any publicly traded securities that comprise all or part of the Exchange Property.

In the event of such a Reorganization Event, the Person formed by such consolidation, merger or exchange or the Person which acquires the assets of the Issuer or, in the event of a liquidation, dissolution or termination of the Issuer, the Issuer or a liquidating trust created in connection therewith, shall execute and deliver to the Purchase Contract Agent an agreement supplemental hereto providing that each Holder of an Outstanding Unit shall have the rights provided by this Section 5.4(b). Such supplemental agreement shall provide for adjustments which, for events subsequent to the effective date of such supplemental agreement, shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Section 5.4. The above provisions of this Section 5.4 shall similarly apply to successive Reorganization Events.

(ii): In the event of a consolidation or merger of the Issuer with or into another Person or any merger of another Person into the Issuer (other than a merger that does not result in any reclassification, conversion, exchange or cancellation of outstanding shares of Common Stock), in each case in which [30%] or more of the total consideration paid to the Issuer's shareholders consists of cash or cash equivalents (a Cash Merger), a Holder of a Unit may settle (Cash Merger Early Settlement) its Purchase Contract, upon the conditions set forth below unless otherwise provided in the applicable Issuer Order, at the Settlement Rate in effect immediately prior to the closing of the Cash Merger; provided that (i) the Cash Merger Early Settlement Date (as defined below) is no later than the fifth Business Day immediately preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement Date and (ii) no Cash Merger Early Settlement will be permitted pursuant to this Section 5.4(b)(ii) unless, at the time such Cash Merger Early Settlement is effected, there is an effective Registration Statement with respect to any securities to be issued and delivered in connection with such Cash Merger Early Settlement, if such a Registration Statement is required (in the view of counsel, which need not be in the form of a written opinion, for the Issuer) under the Securities Act. If such a Registration Statement is so required, the Issuer covenants and agrees to use its best efforts to (A) have in effect a Registration Statement covering any securities to be delivered in respect of the Purchase Contracts being settled and (B) provide a Prospectus in connection therewith, in each case in a form that may be used in connection with such Cash Merger Early Settlement. If a Holder effects a Cash Merger Early Settlement of some or all of its Purchase Contracts, such Holder shall be entitled to receive, on the Cash Merger Early Settlement Date, the aggregate amount of any Deferred Contract Adjustment Payments and any accrued and unpaid Contract Adjustment Payments since the immediately preceding Payment Date with respect to such Purchase Contracts. The Issuer shall pay such amount as a credit against the amount otherwise payable by the Holders to effect such Cash Merger Early Settlement.

Within five Business Days of the completion of a Cash Merger, the Issuer shall provide written notice to Holders of Units of such completion of a Cash Merger, which shall specify the deadline for submitting the notice to settle early in cash pursuant to this Section 5.4(b)(ii), the date on which such Cash Merger Early Settlement shall occur (which date shall be at least five days but not more than 20 days after the date of such written notice by the Issuer, but which shall in no event be later than the fifth Business Day immediately preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement Date) (the Cash Merger Early Settlement Date), the applicable Settlement Rate and the amount (per share of Common Stock) of cash, securities and other consideration receivable by the Holder, including the amount of Contract Adjustment Payments receivable, upon settlement.

Treasury Units Holders may only effect Cash Merger Early Settlement pursuant to this Section 5.4(b)(ii) in integral multiples of [40] Treasury Units or such other amount as may be designated in the applicable Issuer Order. Other than the provisions relating to timing of notice and settlement, which shall be as set forth above, the provisions of Section 5.1 shall apply with respect to a Cash Merger Early Settlement pursuant to this Section 5.4(b)(ii). In order to exercise the right to effect Cash Merger Early Settlement with respect to any Purchase Contracts, a Holder of the Certificate evidencing Units shall deliver, no later than 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the third Business Day immediately preceding the Cash Merger Early Settlement Date, such Certificate to the Purchase Contract Agent at the Corporate Trust Office duly endorsed for transfer to the Issuer or in blank with the form of Election to Settle Early on the reverse thereof duly completed and accompanied by payment (payable to the Issuer in immediately available funds) in an amount (the Cash Merger Early Settlement Amount) equal to the product of (A) the Stated Amount times (B) the number of Purchase Contracts with respect to which the Holder has elected to effect Cash Merger Early Settlement, less the amount of any Contract Adjustment Payments (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any accrued and unpaid Contract Adjustment Payments and any Deferred Contract Adjustment Payments) payable to such Holder on the next succeeding Payment Date as a result of such Cash Merger Early Settlement; provided that, no amount shall be deducted for which a Record Date establishing entitlement to such amount has passed, but before the Payment Date with respect to such amount.

If a Holder properly effects an effective Cash Merger Early Settlement in accordance with the provisions of this Section 5.4(b)(ii), the Issuer will deliver (or will cause the Collateral Agent to deliver) to the Holder on the Cash Merger Early Settlement Date:

(A): the kind and amount of securities, cash and other property receivable upon such Cash Merger by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on account of each Purchase Contract if the Purchase Contract Settlement Date had occurred immediately prior to such Cash Merger (based on the Settlement Rate in effect at such time), assuming such Holder of Common Stock is not a Constituent Person or an Affiliate of a Constituent Person to the extent such Cash Merger provides for different treatment of Common Stock held by Affiliates of the Issuer and non-affiliates and such Holder failed to exercise its rights of election, if any, as to the kind or amount of securities, cash and other property receivable upon such Cash Merger (provided that if the kind or amount of securities, cash and other property receivable upon such Cash Merger is not the same for each Non-Electing Share, then for the purpose of this Section 5.4(b)(ii), the kind and amount of securities, cash and other property receivable upon such Cash Merger by each Non-Electing Share shall be deemed to be the kind and amount so receivable per share by a plurality of the Non-Electing Shares), plus accrued and unpaid Contract Adjustment Payments. For the avoidance of doubt, for the purposes of determining the Adjusted Applicable Market Value (in connection with determining the appropriate Settlement Rate to be applied in the foregoing sentence), the date of the closing of the Cash Merger shall be deemed to be the Purchase Contract Settlement Date;
(B): the Notes or Treasury Securities, as the case may be, related to the Purchase Contracts with respect to which the Holder is effecting a Cash Merger Early Settlement; and
(C): if so required under the Securities Act, a Prospectus as contemplated by this Section 5.4(b)(ii).

(iii): The Issuer may set forth additional adjustments of the settlement rate in the applicable Issuer Order.
(iv): All calculations and determinations pursuant to this Section 5.4 shall be made by the Issuer or its agent and the Purchase Contract Agent shall have no responsibility with respect thereto.
(v): The Units of the Holders who do not elect Cash Merger Early Settlement in accordance with the foregoing will continue to remain outstanding and be subject to settlement on the Purchase Contract Settlement Date in accordance with the terms hereof.

5.5 Notice of Adjustments and Certain Other Events

(a)

Whenever the Settlement Rate is adjusted as herein provided, the Issuer shall within [10] Business Days following the occurrence of an event that requires an adjustment to the Settlement Rate pursuant to Section 5.4 (or if the Issuer is not aware of such occurrence, as soon as practicable after becoming so aware):

(i): compute the adjusted Settlement Rate in accordance with Section 5.4 and prepare and transmit to the Purchase Contract Agent an Officers' Certificate setting forth the Settlement Rate, the method of calculation thereof in reasonable detail, and the facts requiring such adjustment and upon which such adjustment is based; and
(ii): provide a written notice to the Holders of the Units of the occurrence of such event and a statement in reasonable detail setting forth the method by which the adjustment to the Settlement Rate was determined and setting forth the adjusted Settlement Rate.

(b)

The Purchase Contract Agent shall not at any time be under any duty or responsibility to any Holder of Units to determine whether any facts exist which may require any adjustment of the Settlement Rate, or with respect to the nature or extent or calculation of any such adjustment when made, or with respect to the method employed in making the same. The Purchase Contract Agent shall be fully authorized and protected in relying on any Officers' Certificate delivered pursuant to Section 5.5(a)(i) and any adjustment contained therein and the Purchase Contract Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any adjustment unless and until it has received such certificate. The Purchase Contract Agent shall not be accountable with respect to the validity or value (or the kind or amount) of any shares of Common Stock, or of any securities or property, which may at the time be issued or delivered with respect to any Purchase Contract; and the Purchase Contract Agent makes no representation with respect thereto. The Purchase Contract Agent shall not be responsible for any failure of the Issuer to issue, transfer or deliver any shares of Common Stock pursuant to a Purchase Contract or to comply with any of the duties, responsibilities or covenants of the Issuer contained in this Article.

5.6 Termination Event; Notice

(a): The Purchase Contracts and all obligations and rights of the Issuer and the Holders thereunder, including, without limitation, the rights of the Holders to receive and the obligation of the Issuer to pay any Contract Adjustment Payments (including any accrued and unpaid Contract Adjustment Payments and any Deferred Contract Adjustment Payments), if the Issuer shall have such obligation, and the rights and obligations of Holders to purchase Common Stock, shall immediately and automatically terminate, without the necessity of any notice or action by any Holder, the Purchase Contract Agent or the Issuer, if, prior to or on the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, a Termination Event shall have occurred.

Upon and after the occurrence of a Termination Event, the Units shall thereafter represent the right to receive the Notes or the Treasury Securities, as the case may be, forming part of such Units, in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.4 of the Pledge Agreement.

(b): Upon the occurrence of a Termination Event, the Issuer shall promptly but in no event later than two Business Days thereafter give written notice of such event to the Purchase Contract Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Holders, at their addresses as they appear in the Security Register.

5.7 Early Settlement

(a): Subject to and upon compliance with the provisions of this Section 5.7 and unless otherwise provided in the applicable Issuer Order, at the option of the Holder thereof, Purchase Contracts underlying Units may be settled early (Early Settlement) at any time prior to 5:30 p.m. (Amsterdam time) on the fifth Business Day immediately preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement Date; provided that no Early Settlement will be permitted pursuant to this Section 5.7 unless, at the time such Early Settlement is effected, there is an effective Registration Statement with respect to any securities to be issued and delivered in connection with such Early Settlement, if such a Registration Statement is required (in the view of counsel, which need not be in the form of a written opinion, for the Issuer) under the Securities Act. If such a Registration Statement is so required, the Issuer covenant and agree to use their best efforts to (A) have in effect a Registration Statement covering any securities to be delivered in respect of the Purchase Contracts being settled and (B) provide a Prospectus in connection therewith, in each case in a form that may be used in connection with such Early Settlement.
(b): In order to exercise the right to effect Early Settlement with respect to any Purchase Contracts, the Holder of the Certificate evidencing Units shall deliver, at any time prior to 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth Business Day immediately preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, such Certificate to the Purchase Contract Agent at the Corporate Trust Office duly endorsed for transfer to the Issuer or in blank with the form of Election to Settle Early on the reverse thereof duly completed and accompanied by payment (payable to the Issuer in immediately available funds) in an amount (the Early Settlement Amount) equal to the sum of (A) the product of (i) the Stated Amount times (II) the number of Purchase Contracts with respect to which the Holder has elected to effect Early Settlement, plus (B) if such delivery is made with respect to any Purchase Contracts during the period from the close of business on any Record Date next preceding any Payment Date to the opening of business on such Payment Date, an amount equal to the Contract Adjustment Payments (including any Deferred Contract Adjustment Payments) payable on such Payment Date with respect to such Purchase Contracts.

Except as contemplated in the immediately preceding sentence, no payment shall be made upon Early Settlement of any Purchase Contract on account of any Contract Adjustment Payments accrued on such Purchase Contract since the immediately preceding Payment Date or on account of any dividends on the Common Stock issued upon such Early Settlement. However, a Holder effecting an Early Settlement of some or all of its Purchase Contracts shall be entitled to receive, on the date it receives the shares of Common Stock referred to in Section 5.7(d), the amount of any Deferred Contract Adjustment Payments with respect to such Purchase Contracts, calculated as of the immediately preceding Payment Date. The amount of such Deferred Contract Adjustment Payments shall be credited against the amount otherwise payable by the Holder to effect such Early Settlement as set forth in Section 5.7(b) above. If the foregoing requirements are first satisfied with respect to Purchase Contracts underlying any Units at or prior to 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on a Business Day, such day shall be the Early Settlement Date with respect to such Units and if such requirements are first satisfied after 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on a Business Day or on a day that is not a Business Day, the Early Settlement Date with respect to such Units shall be the next succeeding Business Day.

Upon the receipt of such Certificate and Early Settlement Amount from the Holder, the Purchase Contract Agent shall pay to the Issuer such Early Settlement Amount, the receipt of which payment the Issuer shall confirm in writing. The Purchase Contract Agent shall then, in accordance with Section 5.6 of the Pledge Agreement, notify the Collateral Agent that (A) such Holder has elected to effect an Early Settlement, which notice shall set forth the number of such Purchase Contracts as to which such Holder has elected to effect Early Settlement, (B) the Purchase Contract Agent has received from such Holder, and paid to the Issuer as confirmed in writing by the Issuer, the related Early Settlement Amount and (C) all conditions to such Early Settlement have been satisfied.

Holders of Treasury Units may only effect Early Settlement pursuant to this Section 5.7 in integral multiples of [?] Treasury Units.

Upon Early Settlement of the Purchase Contracts, the rights of the Holders to receive and the obligation of the Issuer to pay any accrued and unpaid Contract Adjustment Payments since the immediately preceding Payment Date and any future Contract Adjustment Payments with respect to such Purchase Contracts shall immediately and automatically terminate.

(c)

Upon Early Settlement of Purchase Contracts by a Holder of the related Units, the Issuer shall issue, and the Holder shall be entitled to receive, the number of shares of Common Stock designated in the applicable Issuer Order on account of each Purchase Contract as to which Early Settlement is effected (the Early Settlement Rate). The Early Settlement Rate shall be adjusted in the same manner and at the same time as the Settlement Rate is adjusted pursuant to Section 5.4.

(d)

No later than the third Business Day after the applicable Early Settlement Date, the Issuer shall cause:

(i): the shares of Common Stock issuable upon Early Settlement of Purchase Contracts to be issued and delivered, together with payment in lieu of any fraction of a share, as provided in Section 5.9; and
(ii): the related Notes in the case of Corporate Units, or the related Treasury Securities, in the case of Treasury Units, to be released from the Pledge by the Collateral Agent and transferred, in each case, to the Purchase Contract Agent for delivery to the Holder thereof or its designee.

(e)

Upon Early Settlement of any Purchase Contracts, and subject to receipt of shares of Common Stock from the Issuer and the Notes or Treasury Securities, as the case may be, from the Securities Intermediary, as applicable, the Purchase Contract Agent shall, in accordance with the instructions provided by the Holder thereof on the applicable form of Election to Settle Early on the reverse of the Certificate evidencing the related Units:

(i): transfer to the Holder the Notes or Treasury Securities, as the case may be, forming a part of such Units,
(ii): deliver to the Holder a certificate or certificates for the full number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon such Early Settlement, together with payment in lieu of any fraction of a share, as provided in Section 5.9, and
(iii): if so required under the Securities Act, deliver a Prospectus for the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such Early Settlement as contemplated by Section 5.7(a).

(f)

In the event that Early Settlement is effected with respect to Purchase Contracts underlying less than all the Units evidenced by a Certificate, upon such Early Settlement the Issuer shall execute and the Purchase Contract Agent shall execute on behalf of the Holder, authenticate and deliver to the Holder thereof, at the expense of the Issuer, a Certificate evidencing the Units as to which Early Settlement was not effected.

(g)

A Holder of a Unit who effects Early Settlement may elect to have the Notes no longer a part of a Corporate Unit remarketed in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.2. A Holder making such an election must notify the Indenture Trustee prior to 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the fifth Business Day immediately preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, of the aggregate number of Notes that are not part of Corporate Unites to be remarketed. Any such notice will be irrevocable and may not be conditioned upon the level at which the Reset Rate is established in the Remarketing. Concurrently, the Indenture Trustee shall cause such Notes to be presented to the Remarketing Agent for Remarketing.

5.8 Automatic Settlement

The applicable Issuer Order may provide for automatic settlement to occur on the business day immediately preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, unless the Holder of the Units has settled the related Purchase Contracts through Early Settlement or Cash Merger Early Settlement.

5.9 No Fractional Shares

No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued or delivered upon settlement on the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, or upon Early Settlement or Cash Merger Early Settlement of any Purchase Contracts. If Certificates evidencing more than one Purchase Contract shall be surrendered for settlement at one time by the same Holder, the number of full shares of Common Stock which shall be delivered upon settlement shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate number of Purchase Contracts evidenced by the Certificates so surrendered. Instead of any fractional share of Common Stock which would otherwise be deliverable upon settlement of any Purchase Contracts on the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, or upon Early Settlement or Cash Merger Early Settlement, the Issuer, through the Purchase Contract Agent, shall make a cash payment in respect of such fractional interest in an amount equal to the percentage of such fractional share times the Applicable Market Value calculated as if the date of such settlement were the Purchase Contract Settlement Date. The Issuer shall provide the Purchase Contract Agent from time to time with sufficient funds to permit the Purchase Contract Agent to make all cash payments required by this Section 5.9 in a timely manner.

5.10 Charges and Taxes

The Issuer will pay all stock transfer and similar taxes attributable to the initial issuance and delivery of the shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Purchase Contracts; provided, however, that the Issuer shall not be required to pay any such tax or taxes which may be payable in respect of any exchange of or substitution for a Certificate evidencing a Unit or any issuance of a share of Common Stock in a name other than that of the registered Holder of a Certificate surrendered in respect of the Units evidenced thereby, other than in the name of the Purchase Contract Agent, as custodian for such Holder, and the Issuer shall not be required to issue or deliver such share certificates or Certificates unless or until the Person or Persons requesting the transfer or issuance thereof shall have paid to the Issuer the amount of such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Issuer that such tax has been paid.

5.11 Contract Adjustment Payments

(a): Subject to Section 5.11(d), the Issuer shall pay, on each Payment Date, the Contract Adjustment Payments payable in respect of each Purchase Contract to the Person in whose name a Certificate is registered at the close of business on the Record Date relating to such Payment Date. The Contract Adjustment Payments will be payable at the office of the Purchase Contract Agent in the Borough of Manhattan, New York City maintained for that purpose. If the book-entry system for the Units has been terminated, the Contract Adjustment Payments will be payable, at the option of the Issuer, by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto at such Person's address as it appears on the Security Register, or by wire transfer to the account designated by such Person by a prior written notice to the Purchase Contract Agent. If any date on which Contract Adjustment Payments are to be made is not a Business Day, then payment of the Contract Adjustment Payments payable on such date will be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day (and without any interest in respect of any such delay); provided that if such Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar year, then payment of the Contract Adjustment Payments will be made on the Business Day immediately preceding such Business Day. Contract Adjustment Payments payable for any period will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. The Contract Adjustment Payments will accrue from the date of issuance of the Purchase Contracts unless otherwise provided in the applicable Issuer Order.
(b): Upon the occurrence of a Termination Event, the Issuer's obligation to pay future Contract Adjustment Payments (including any accrued Contract Adjustment Payments and any Deferred Contract Adjustment Payments) shall cease.
(c): Each Certificate delivered under this Agreement upon registration of transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of (including as a result of a Collateral Substitution or the recreation of Corporate Units) any other Certificate shall carry the right to accrued and unpaid Contract Adjustment Payments and Deferred Contract Adjustment Payments, which right was carried by the Purchase Contracts underlying such other Certificates.
(d): In the case of any Unit with respect to which Early Settlement or Cash Merger Early Settlement of the underlying Purchase Contract is effected on a date that is after any Record Date and prior to or on the next succeeding Payment Date, Contract Adjustment Payments otherwise payable on such Payment Date shall be payable on such Payment Date notwithstanding such Early Settlement or Cash Merger Early Settlement, and such Contract Adjustment Payments shall be paid to the Person in whose name the Certificate evidencing such Unit is registered at the close of business on such Record Date. Except as otherwise expressly provided in the immediately preceding sentence, in the case of any Unit with respect to which Early Settlement or Cash Merger Early Settlement of the underlying Purchase Contract is effected, future Contract Adjustment Payments that would otherwise be payable after the Early Settlement Date or Cash Merger Early Settlement Date with respect to such Purchase Contract shall not be payable.
(e): The Issuer's obligations with respect to Contract Adjustment Payments, if any, will be subordinated and junior in right of payment to the Issuer's obligations under any Senior Indebtedness.

(f)

In the event (x) of any payment by, or distribution of assets of, the Issuer of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, to creditors upon any dissolution, winding-up, liquidation or reorganization of the Issuer, whether voluntary or involuntary or in bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or other proceedings, or (y) subject to the provisions of Section 5.11(h) below, that (i) a default shall have occurred and be continuing with respect to the payment of principal, interest or any other monetary amounts due and payable on any Senior Indebtedness and such default shall have continued beyond the period of grace, if any, specified in the instrument evidencing such Senior Indebtedness (and the Purchase Contract Agent shall have received written notice thereof from the Issuer or one or more holders of Senior Indebtedness or their representative or representatives or the trustee or trustees under any indenture pursuant to which any such Senior Indebtedness may have been issued), or (ii) the maturity of any Senior Indebtedness shall have been accelerated because of a default in respect of such Senior Indebtedness (and the Purchase Contract Agent shall have received written notice thereof from the Issuer or one or more holders of Senior Indebtedness or their representative or representatives or the trustee or trustees under any indenture pursuant to which any such Senior Indebtedness may have been issued), then:

(i): the holders of all Senior Indebtedness shall first be entitled to receive, in the case of clause (x) above, payment of all amounts due or to become due upon all Senior Indebtedness and, in the case of subclauses (i) and (ii) of clause (y) above, payment of all amounts due thereon, or provision shall be made for such payment in money or money's worth, before the Holders of any of the Units are entitled to receive any Contract Adjustment Payments on the Purchase Contracts underlying the Units;
(ii): any payment by, or distribution of assets of, the Issuer of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, to which the Holders of any of the Units would be entitled except for the provisions of Section 5.11(e) through (q), including any such payment or distribution which may be payable or deliverable by reason of the payment of any other indebtedness of the Issuer being subordinated to the payment of such Contract Adjustment Payments on the Purchase Contracts underlying the Units, shall be paid or delivered by the Person making such payment or distribution, whether a trustee in bankruptcy, a receiver or liquidating trustee or otherwise, directly to the representative or representatives of the holders of Senior Indebtedness or to the trustee or trustees under any indenture under which any instruments evidencing any of such Senior Indebtedness may have been issued, ratably according to the aggregate amounts remaining unpaid on account of such Senior Indebtedness held or represented by each, to the extent necessary to make payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness remaining unpaid after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution (or provision therefor) to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness, before any payment or distribution is made of such Contract Adjustment Payments to the Holders of such Units; and

(iii): in the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing, any payment by, or distribution of assets of, the Issuer of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, including any such payment or distribution which may be payable or deliverable by reason of the payment of any other indebtedness of the Issuer being subordinated to the payment of Contract Adjustment Payments on the Purchase Contracts underlying the Units, shall be received by the Purchase Contract Agent or the Holders of any of the Units when such payment or distribution is prohibited pursuant to Section 5.11(e) through (q), such payment or distribution shall be paid over to the representative or representatives of the holders of Senior Indebtedness or to the trustee or trustees under any indenture pursuant to which any instruments evidencing any such Senior Indebtedness may have been issued, ratably as aforesaid, for application to the payment of all Senior Indebtedness remaining unpaid until all such Senior Indebtedness shall have been paid in full, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution (or provision therefor) to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness.

(g): For purposes of Section 5.11(e) through (q), the words "cash, property or securities" shall not be deemed to include shares of stock of the Issuer as reorganized or readjusted, or securities of the Issuer or any other Person provided for by a plan of reorganization or readjustment, the payment of which is subordinated at least to the extent provided in Section 5.11(e) through (q) with respect to such Contract Adjustment Payments on the Units to the payment of all Senior Indebtedness which may at the time be outstanding; provided that (i) the indebtedness or guarantee of indebtedness, as the case may be, that constitutes Senior Indebtedness is assumed by the Person, if any, resulting from any such reorganization or readjustment, and (ii) the rights of the holders of the Senior Indebtedness are not, without the consent of each such holder adversely affected thereby, altered by such reorganization or readjustment;
(h): Any failure by the Issuer to make any payment on or perform any other obligation under Senior Indebtedness, other than any indebtedness incurred by the Issuer or assumed or guaranteed, directly or indirectly, by the Issuer for money borrowed (or any deferral, renewal, extension or refunding thereof) or any indebtedness or obligation as to which the provisions of Section 5.11(e) through (g) shall have been waived by the Issuer in the instrument or instruments by which the Issuer incurred, assumed, guaranteed or otherwise created such indebtedness or obligation, shall not be deemed a default or event of default if (i) the Issuer shall be disputing its obligation to make such payment or perform such obligation and (ii) either (A) no final judgment relating to such dispute shall have been issued against the Issuer which is in full force and effect and is not subject to further review, including a judgment that has become final by reason of the expiration of the time within which a party may seek further appeal or review, and (B) in the event a judgment that is subject to further review or appeal has been issued, the Issuer shall in good faith be prosecuting an appeal or other proceeding for review and a stay of execution shall have been obtained pending such appeal or review.

(i): Subject to the irrevocable payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness, the Holders of the Units shall be subrogated (equally and ratably with the holders of all obligations of the Issuer which by their express terms are subordinated to Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer to the same extent as payment of the Contract Adjustment Payments in respect of the Purchase Contracts underlying the Units is subordinated and which are entitled to like rights of subrogation) to the rights of the holders of Senior Indebtedness to receive payments or distributions of cash, property or securities of the Issuer applicable to the Senior Indebtedness until all such Contract Adjustment Payments owing on the Units shall be paid in full, and as between the Issuer, its creditors other than holders of such Senior Indebtedness and the Holders, no such payment or distribution made to the holders of Senior Indebtedness by virtue of Section 5.11(e) through (q) that otherwise would have been made to the Holders shall be deemed to be a payment by the Issuer on account of such Senior Indebtedness, it being understood that the provisions of Section 5.11(e) through (q) are and are intended solely for the purpose of defining the relative rights of the Holders, on the one hand, and the holders of Senior Indebtedness, on the other hand.
(j): Nothing contained in Section 5.11(e) through (q) or elsewhere in this Agreement or in the Units is intended to or shall impair, as among the Issuer, its creditors other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness and the Holders, the obligation of the Issuer, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay to the Holders such Contract Adjustment Payments on the Units as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with their terms, or is intended to or shall affect the relative rights of the Holders and creditors of the Issuer other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness, nor shall anything herein or therein prevent the Purchase Contract Agent or any Holder from exercising all remedies otherwise permitted by applicable law upon default under this Agreement, subject to the rights, if any, under Section 5.11(e) through (q), of the holders of Senior Indebtedness in respect of cash, property or securities of the Issuer received upon the exercise of any such remedy.
(k): Upon payment or distribution of assets of the Issuer referred to in Section 5.11(e) through (q), the Purchase Contract Agent and the Holders shall be entitled to rely upon any order or decree made by any court of competent jurisdiction in which any such dissolution, winding up, liquidation or reorganization proceeding affecting the affairs of the Issuer is pending or upon a certificate of the trustee in bankruptcy, receiver, assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidating trustee or Purchase Contract Agent or other person making any payment or distribution, delivered to the Purchase Contract Agent or to the Holders, for the purpose of ascertaining the Persons entitled to participate in such payment or distribution, the holders of the Senior Indebtedness and other indebtedness of the Issuer, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid or distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to these Section 5.11(e) through (q).
(l): The Purchase Contract Agent shall be entitled to rely on the delivery to it of a written notice by a Person representing himself to be a holder of Senior Indebtedness (or a trustee or representative on behalf of such holder) to establish that such notice has been given by a holder of Senior Indebtedness or a trustee or representative on behalf of any such holder or holders. In the event that the Purchase Contract Agent determines in good faith that further evidence is required with respect to the right of any Person as a holder of Senior Indebtedness to participate in any payment or distribution pursuant to Section 5.11(e) through (q), the Purchase Contract Agent may request such Person to furnish evidence to the reasonable satisfaction of the Purchase Contract Agent as to the amount of Senior Indebtedness held by such Person, the extent to which such Person is entitled to participate in such payment or distribution and any other facts pertinent to the rights of such Person under Section 5.11(e) through (q), and, if such evidence is not furnished, the Purchase Contract Agent may defer payment to such Person pending judicial determination as to the right of such Person to receive such payment.

(m): Nothing contained in Section 5.11(e) through (q) shall affect the obligations of the Issuer to make, or prevent the Issuer from making, payment of the Contract Adjustment Payments, except as otherwise provided in these Section 5.11(e) through (q).
(n): Each Holder of Units, by its acceptance thereof, authorizes and directs the Purchase Contract Agent on its behalf to take such action as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the subordination provided in Section 5.11 (e) through (q) and appoints the Purchase Contract Agent its attorney-in-fact, as the case may be, for any and all such purposes.
(o): The Issuer shall give prompt written notice to the Purchase Contract Agent of any fact known to the Issuer that would prohibit the making of any payment of moneys to or by the Purchase Contract Agent in respect of the Units pursuant to the provisions of this Section. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 5.11(e) through (q) or any other provisions of this Agreement, the Purchase Contract Agent shall not be charged with knowledge of the existence of any facts that would prohibit the making of any payment of moneys to or by the Purchase Contract Agent, or the taking of any other action by the Purchase Contract Agent, unless and until the Purchase Contract Agent shall have received written notice thereof mailed or delivered to the Purchase Contract Agent at its Corporate Trust Office from the Issuer, any Holder, or the holder or representative of any Senior Indebtedness; provided that if at least two Business Days prior to the date upon which by the terms hereof any such moneys may become payable for any purpose, the Purchase Contract Agent shall not have received with respect to such moneys the notice provided for in this Section, then, anything herein contained to the contrary notwithstanding, the Purchase Contract Agent shall have full power and authority to receive such moneys and to apply the same to the purpose for which they were received and shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary that may be received by it within two Business Days prior to or on or after such date.
(p): The Purchase Contract Agent in its individual capacity shall be entitled to all the rights set forth in this Section with respect to any Senior Indebtedness at the time held by it, to the same extent as any other holder of Senior Indebtedness and nothing in this Agreement shall deprive the Purchase Contract Agent of any of its rights as such holder.
(q): No right of any present or future holder of any Senior Indebtedness to enforce the subordination herein shall at any time or in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of the Issuer or by any noncompliance by the Issuer with the terms, provisions and covenants of this Agreement, regardless of any knowledge thereof which any such holder may have or be otherwise charged with.
(r): Nothing in this Section 5.11 shall apply to claims of, or payments to, the Purchase Contract Agent under or pursuant to Section 7.7.
(s): With respect to the holders of Senior Indebtedness, (i) the duties and obligations of the Purchase Contract Agent shall be determined solely by the express provisions of this Agreement; (ii) the Purchase Contract Agent shall not be liable to any such holders if it shall, acting in good faith, mistakenly pay over or distribute to the Holders or to the Issuer or any other Person cash, property or securities to which any holders of Senior Indebtedness shall be entitled by virtue of this Section 5.11 or otherwise; (iii) no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Agreement against the Purchase Contract Agent; and (iv) the Purchase Contract Agent shall not be deemed to be a fiduciary as to such holders.

5.12 Deferral of Contract Adjustment Payments

(a): The Issuer has the right at any time, and from time to time, to defer payment of all or part of the Contract Adjustment Payments in respect of each Purchase Contract by extending the period for payment of Contract Adjustment Payments to any subsequent Payment Date (an Extension Period), but not beyond the Purchase Contract Settlement Date (or, with respect to Purchase Contracts for which an effective Early Settlement or Cash Merger Early Settlement has occurred, the Early Settlement Date or Cash Merger Early Settlement Date, as the case may be). Prior to the expiration of any Extension Period, the Issuer may further extend such Extension Period to any subsequent Payment Date, but not beyond the Purchase Contract Settlement Date (or any applicable Early Settlement Date or Cash Merger Early Settlement Date).

If the Issuer so elects to defer Contract Adjustment Payments, the Issuer shall pay additional Contract Adjustment Payments on such deferred installments of Contract Adjustment Payments at a rate equal to the percentage per annum designated in the applicable Issuer Order, compounding on each succeeding Payment Date, until such deferred installments are paid in full (such deferred installments of Contract Adjustment Payments together with the accrued additional Contract Adjustment Payments thereon, being referred to herein as the Deferred Contract Adjustment Payments).

At the end of each Extension Period, including as the same may be extended as provided above, or, in the event of an effective Early Settlement or Cash Merger Early Settlement, on the Early Settlement Date or Cash Merger Early Settlement Date, as the case may be, the Issuer shall pay all Deferred Contract Adjustment Payments then due in the manner set forth in Section 5.11(a) (in the case of the end of an Extension Period), in the manner set forth in Section 5.7(b) (in the case of an Early Settlement) or in the manner set forth in Section 5.4(b)(ii) (in the case of a Cash Merger Early Settlement) to the extent such amounts are not deducted from the amount otherwise payable by the Holder in the case of a Cash Settlement, any Early Settlement or any Cash Merger Early Settlement. In the event of an Early Settlement, the Issuer shall pay all Deferred Contract Adjustment Payments due on the Purchase Contracts being settled early through the Payment Date immediately preceding the applicable Early Settlement Date. In the event of a Cash Merger Early Settlement, the Issuer shall pay all Deferred Contract Adjustment Payments due on the Purchase Contracts being settled on the Cash Merger Early Settlement Date to but excluding such Cash Merger Early Settlement Date.

Upon termination of any Extension Period and the payment of all Deferred Contract Adjustment Payments and all accrued and unpaid Contract Adjustment Payments then due, the Issuer may commence a new Extension Period, provided that such Extension Period, together with all extensions thereof, may not extend beyond the Purchase Contract Settlement Date (or any applicable Early Settlement Date or Cash Merger Early Settlement Date). Except in the case of an Early Settlement or Cash Merger Early Settlement, no Contract Adjustment Payments shall be due and payable during an Extension Period except at the end thereof, except that prior to the end of such Extension Period, the Issuer, at its option, may prepay on any Payment Date all or any portion of the Deferred Contract Adjustment Payments accrued during the then elapsed portion of such Extension Period.

(b): The Issuer shall give written notice to the Purchase Contract Agent (and the Purchase Contract Agent shall give notice thereof to Holders of Purchase Contracts) of its election to extend any period for the payment of Contract Adjustment Payments, the expected length of any such Extension Period and any extension of any Extension Period, at least five Business Days before the earlier of (i) the Record Date for the Payment Date on which Contract Adjustment Payments would have been payable except for the election to begin or extend the Extension Period or (ii) the date the Purchase Contract Agent is required to give notice to any securities exchange or to Holders of Purchase Contracts of such Record Date or such Payment Date.
(c): The Issuer shall give written notice to the Purchase Contract Agent (and the Purchase Contract Agent shall give notice thereof to Holders of Purchase Contracts) of the end of an Extension Period or its election to pay any portion of the Deferred Contract Adjustment Payments on a payment date prior to the end of an Extension Period, at least five Business Days before the earlier of (i) the Record Date for the Payment Date on which such Extension Period shall end or such payment of Deferred Contract Adjustment Payments shall be made or (ii) the date the Purchase Contract Agent is required to give notice to any securities exchange or to Holders of Purchase Contracts of such Record Date or such Payment Date.
(d): In the event the Issuer exercises its option to defer the payment of Contract Adjustment Payments, then, until all Deferred Contract Adjustment Payments have been paid, the Issuer shall not declare or pay dividends on, make distributions with respect to, or redeem, purchase or acquire, or make a liquidation payment with respect to, any of its capital stock or their capital stock; provided that the Issuer's subsidiaries will not be restricted from declaring or paying such dividends, or making such distributions, to the Issuer or any of the Issuer's other subsidiaries as a result of the foregoing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuer may (1) purchase or acquire its capital stock in connection with satisfaction by it of its obligations under any employee benefit plans or pursuant to any contract or security outstanding on the first day of any such event requiring it to purchase its capital stock; (2) reclassify its capital stock or exchange or convert one class or series of its capital stock for another class or series of its capital stock; (3) purchase fractional interests in shares of its capital stock pursuant to the conversion or exchange provisions of such capital stock or the security being converted or exchanged; and (4) redeem or repurchase any rights pursuant to a rights agreement.

6. REMEDIES

6.1 Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive Contract Adjustment Payments and to Purchase Shares of Common Stock

Each Holder of a Unit shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, (i) subject to Article Five, to receive each Contract Adjustment Payment due hereunder with respect to the Purchase Contract comprising part of such Unit on the respective Payment Date for such Unit and (ii) except upon and following a Termination Event, to purchase shares of Common Stock pursuant to such Purchase Contract and, in each such case, to institute suit for the enforcement of any such right to receive Contract Adjustment Payments and the right to purchase shares of Common Stock, and such rights shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder.

6.2 Restoration of Rights and Remedies

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

6.3 Rights and Remedies Cumulative

Except as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificates in Section 3.10(f), no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

6.4 Delay or Omission Not Waiver

No delay or omission of any Holder to exercise any right upon a default or remedy upon a default 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 may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by such Holders.

6.5 Undertaking for Costs

All parties to this Agreement agree, and each Holder of a Unit, by its acceptance of such Unit 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 the Purchase Contract Agent, to any suit instituted by any Holder, or group of Holders, holding in the aggregate more than 10% of the Outstanding Units, or to any suit instituted by any Holder for the enforcement of interest on any Notes or Contract Adjustment Payments on or after the respective Payment Date therefor in respect of any Unit held by such Holder, or for enforcement of the right to purchase shares of Common Stock under the Purchase Contracts constituting part of any Unit held by such Holder.

6.6 Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws

The Issuer 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 take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which may affect the covenants or the performance of this Agreement; and the Issuer (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law and covenant that they 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.

7. THE PURCHASE CONTRACT AGENT

7.1 Certain Duties and Responsibilities

(b)

No provision of this Agreement, the Pledge Agreement or the Remarketing Agreement shall be construed to relieve the Purchase Contract Agent from liability for its own grossly negligent action, its own grossly negligent failure to act, or its own willful misconduct, except that:

Each Purchase Contract evidenced hereby is governed by a Purchase Contract Agreement, dated as of [ ], 200[ ] (as may be supplemented from time to time), the (Purchase Contract Agreement), between the Issuer and [ • ], as Purchase Contract Agent (including its successors hereunder, the (Purchase Contract Agent), to which Purchase Contract Agreement and supplemental agreements thereto reference is hereby made for a description of the respective rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities thereunder of the Purchase Contract Agent, the Issuer, and the Holders and of the terms upon which the Corporate Units Certificates are, and are to be, executed and delivered.

Each Purchase Contract evidenced hereby obligates the Holder of this Corporate Units Certificate to purchase, and the Issuer to sell, on the Purchase Contract Settlement Date at a price equal to the Stated Amount (the Purchase Price), a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Settlement Rate, unless an Early Settlement, a Cash Merger Early Settlement or a Termination Event with respect to the Units of which such Purchase Contract is a part shall have occurred. The (Settlement Rate) is equal to:

1.: if the Adjusted Applicable Market Value (as defined below) is greater than or equal to $[ ] (the Threshold Appreciation Price), [ ] shares of Common Stock per Purchase Contract;

2.: if the Adjusted Applicable Market Value is less than the Threshold Appreciation Price but greater than $[ ] (the Reference Price), the number of shares of Common Stock per Purchase Contact having a value equal to the Stated Amount divided by the Adjusted Applicable Market Value; and
3.: if the Adjusted Applicable Market Value is less than or equal to the Reference Price, [ ] shares of Common Stock per Purchase Contract;

in each case subject to adjustment as provided in the Purchase Contract Agreement (and in each case rounded upward or downward to the nearest 1/10,000th of a share).

No fractional shares of Common Stock will be issued upon settlement of Purchase Contracts, as provided in Section 5.9 of the Purchase Contract Agreement.

Each Purchase Contract evidenced hereby, which is settled through Early Settlement or Cash Merger Early Settlement shall obligate the Holder of the related Corporate Units to purchase at the Purchase Price, and the Issuer to sell, a number of newly issued shares of Common Stock equal to the Early Settlement Rate (in the case of an Early Settlement) or applicable Settlement Rate (in the case of a Cash Merger Early Settlement).

The Applicable Market Value means the average of the Closing Price per share of Common Stock on each of the 20 consecutive Trading Days ending on the third Trading Day immediately preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement Date subject to adjustments set forth under Section 5.4 of the Purchase Contract Agreement.

The Adjusted Applicable Market Value means (i) prior to any adjustment of the Settlement Rate pursuant to paragraph (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v), (vi), (vii) or (x) of Section 5.4(a) of the Purchase Contract Agreement, the Applicable Market Value, and (ii) at the time of and after any adjustment of the Settlement Rate pursuant to paragraph (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v), (vi), (vii) or (x) of Section 5.4(a) of the Purchase Contract Agreement, the Applicable Market Value multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the Settlement Rate immediately after such adjustment pursuant to paragraph (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v), (vi), (vii) or (x) of Section 5.4(a) of the Purchase Contract Agreement and the denominator of which shall be the Settlement Rate immediately prior to such adjustment; provided, however, that if such adjustment to the Settlement Rate is required to be made pursuant to the occurrence of any of the events contemplated by paragraph (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v), (vi), (vii) or (x) of Section 5.4(a) of the Purchase Contract Agreement during the period taken into consideration for determining the Applicable Market Value, appropriate and customary adjustments shall be made to the Settlement Rate.

The Closing Price of the Common Stock on any date of determination means the closing sale price of the Common Stock on Euronext Amsterdam, or any successor to it, on such date or, if the Common Stock is not listed for trading on Euronext Amsterdam on any such date, the market value of the Common Stock in euro on the date of determination as determined by an internationally recognized independent investment banking firm retained by the Issuer for this purpose.

A Trading Day means a day on which Common Stock (1) is not suspended from trading on any national or regional securities exchange or association or over-the-counter market at the close of business and (2) has traded at least once on the national or regional securities exchange or association or over-the-counter market that is the primary market for the trading of Common Stock.

In accordance with the terms of the Purchase Contract Agreement, the Holder of this Corporate Units Certificate may pay the Purchase Price for the shares of Common Stock purchased pursuant to each Purchase Contract evidenced hereby, by effecting a Cash Settlement, an Early Settlement or, if applicable, a Cash Merger Early Settlement or from the proceeds of the Remarketing of the related Pledged Notes or the automatic Put Right. A Holder of Corporate Units who (1) does not, on or prior to 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth Business Day immediately preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, notify the Purchase Contract Agent of its intention to effect a Cash Settlement, or who does so notify the Purchase Contract Agent but fails to make an effective Cash Settlement prior to 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fourth Business Day immediately preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, or (2) on or prior to 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth Business Day prior to the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, does not make an effective Early Settlement, shall pay the Purchase Price, less the amount of any Deferred Contract Adjustment Payments payable to such Holder, for the shares of Common Stock to be delivered under the related Purchase Contract from the proceeds of the sale of the related Pledged Notes held by the Collateral Agent unless the Holder has previously made a Cash Merger Early Settlement. Such sale will be made by the Remarketing Agent pursuant to the terms of the Remarketing Agreement on the Remarketing Date.

As provided in the Purchase Contract Agreement, upon the occurrence of a Failed Remarketing, unless a Holder of a Pledged Note has notified the Purchase Contract Agent of its intent to effect a Cash Settlement of the Purchase Contract and delivered the Purchase Price to the Collateral Agent pursuant to the Purchase Contract Agreement, such Holder shall be deemed to have exercised such Holder's Put Right and to have elected to pay the Purchase Price under the Purchase Contract out of a portion of the proceeds from the Put Right in full satisfaction of such Holder's obligations under the Purchase Contract. In the event of the Issuer's failure to pay the Put Price when due, the Issuer shall be deemed to have netted such Holder's obligation to pay the Issuer the Purchase Price under the Purchase Contracts against the Issuer's obligations to pay the Put Price, in full satisfaction of such Holder's obligation under the Purchase Contracts.

The Issuer shall not be obligated to issue any shares of Common Stock in respect of a Purchase Contract or deliver any certificates therefor to the Holder unless it shall have received payment of the aggregate Purchase Price for the shares of Common Stock to be purchased thereunder in the manner set forth in the Purchase Contract Agreement.

Each Purchase Contract evidenced hereby and all obligations and rights of the Issuer and the Holder thereunder shall terminate if a Termination Event shall occur. Upon the occurrence of a Termination Event, the Issuer shall give written notice to the Purchase Contract Agent and to the Holders, at their addresses as they appear in the Security Register. Upon and after the occurrence of a Termination Event, the Collateral Agent shall release the Pledged Notes. A Corporate Unit shall thereafter represent the right to receive the Note in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Contract Agreement and the Pledge Agreement.

Under the terms of the Pledge Agreement and the Purchase Contract Agreement, the Purchase Contract Agent will be entitled to exercise the voting and any other consensual rights pertaining to the Pledged Notes, but only to the extent instructed in writing by the Holders. Upon receipt of notice of any meeting at which holders of Notes are entitled to vote or upon the solicitation of consents, waivers or proxies of holders of Notes, the Purchase Contract Agent shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, mail to the Corporate Units Holders a notice:

1.: containing such information as is contained in the notice or solicitation;
2.: stating that each Corporate Units Holder on the record date set by the Purchase Contract Agent therefor (which, to the extent possible, shall be the same date as the record date for determining the holders of Notes entitled to vote) shall be entitled to instruct the Purchase Contract Agent as to the exercise of the voting rights pertaining to the Notes constituting a part of such Holder's Corporate Units; and

3.: stating the manner in which such instructions may be given.

Upon the written request of the Corporate Units Holders on such record date, received by the Purchase Contract Agent at least six days prior to such meeting, the Purchase Contract Agent shall endeavor insofar as practicable to vote or cause to be voted, in accordance with the instructions set forth in such requests, the maximum aggregate principal amount of Notes as to which any particular voting instructions are received. In the absence of specific instructions from the Holder of a Corporate Unit, the Purchase Contract Agent shall abstain from voting the Note evidenced by such Corporate Unit.

The Corporate Units Certificates are issuable only in registered form and only in denominations of a single Corporate Unit and any integral multiple thereof. The transfer of any Corporate Units Certificate will be registered and Corporate Units Certificates may be exchanged as provided in the Purchase Contract Agreement. The Security Registrar may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents permitted by the Purchase Contract Agreement. No service charge shall be required for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Issuer and the Purchase Contract Agent may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith. A Holder who elects to substitute a Treasury Security for a Note, thereby creating Treasury Units, shall be responsible for any fees or expenses payable in connection therewith. Except as provided in the Purchase Contract Agreement, for so long as the Purchase Contract underlying a Corporate Units remains in effect, such Corporate Units shall not be separable into its constituent parts, and the rights and obligations of the Holder of such Corporate Units in respect of the Notes and Purchase Contract constituting such Corporate Units may be transferred and exchanged only as a Corporate Unit.

Subject to the conditions set forth in the Purchase Contract Agreement, the Holder of corporate Units may substitute, at anytime prior to 5:00 p.m. (New York city time) on the fifth Business Day immediately preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, for the Pledged Notes securing such Holder's obligations under the related Purchase Contracts, Treasury Securities in an aggregate principal amount at maturity equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Pledged Notes in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Contract Agreement and the Pledge Agreement. From and after such Collateral Substitution, each Unit for which such Pledged Treasury Securities secures the Holder's obligation under the Purchase Contract shall be referred to as a (Treasury Unit). A Holder may make such Collateral Substitution only in integral multiples of • Corporate Units for • Treasury Units.

The Issuer shall pay, on each Payment Date, the Contract Adjustment Payments payable in respect of each Purchase Contract to the Person in whose name the Corporate Units Certificate evidencing such Purchase Contract is registered at the close of business on the Record Date for such Payment Date. Contract Adjustment Payments will be payable at the office of the Purchase Contract Agent in New York City. If the book-entry system for the Corporate Units has been terminated, the Contract Adjustment Payments will be payable, at the option of the Issuer, by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto at such Person's address as it appears on the Security Register, or by wire transfer to the account designated by such Person by a prior written notice to the Purchase Contract Agent.

The Issuer has the right to defer payment of all or part of the Contract Adjustment Payments in respect of each Purchase Contract until no later than the Purchase Contract Settlement Date (or in the event of an effective Early Settlement or Cash Merger Early Settlement, the Early Settlement Date or Cash Merger Early Settlement Date, as the case may be) as set forth in the Purchase Contract Agreement. If the Issuer so elects to defer Contract Adjustment Payments, the Issuer shall pay additional Contract Adjustment Payments on such deferred installments of Contract Adjustment Payments at a rate equal to [ ]% per annum, compounding on each succeeding Payment Date, until such deferred installments are paid. In the event that the Issuer elects to defer the payment of Contract Adjustment Payments on the Purchase Contracts until the Purchase Contract Settlement Date (or, in the event of an effective Early Settlement or Cash Merger Early Settlement, the Early Settlement Date or Cash Merger Early Settlement Date, as the case may be), each Holder will receive on the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, Early Settlement Date or Cash Merger Early Settlement Date, as applicable, the Deferred Contract Adjustment Payments to the extent such fees are not deducted from the Settlement Price in the case of a Cash Settlement or any Early Settlement or Cash Merger Early Settlement as set forth in the Purchase Contract Agreement.

The Purchase Contracts and all obligations and rights of the Issuer and the Holders thereunder, including, without limitation, the rights of the Holders to receive and the obligation of the Issuer to pay any Contract Adjustment Payments, shall immediately and automatically terminate, without the necessity of any notice or action by any Holder, the Purchase Contract Agent or the Issuer, if, on or prior to the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, a Termination Event shall have occurred. Upon the occurrence of a Termination Event, the Issuer shall promptly but in no event later than two Business Days thereafter give written notice of the Termination Event to the Purchase Contract Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Holders, at their addresses as they appear in the Security Register. Upon and after the occurrence of a Termination Event, the Collateral Agent shall release the Notes from the Pledge in accordance with the provisions of the Pledge Agreement.

Subject to and upon compliance with the provisions of the Purchase Contract Agreement, at the option of the Holder thereof, Purchase Contracts underlying Units may be settled early at any time prior to 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth Business Day immediately preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement Date (Early Settlement) as provided in the Purchase Contract Agreement. In order to exercise the right to effect Early Settlement with respect to any Purchase Contract evidenced by this Certificate, the Holder of this Corporate Units Certificate shall deliver to the Purchase Contract Agent at the Corporate Trust Office an Election to Settle Early form set forth below duly completed and accompanied by payment in the form of immediately available funds payable to the order of the Issuer in an amount (the Early Settlement Amount) equal to:

(i): the sum of (A) the product of (i) the Stated Amount times (II) the number of Purchase Contracts with respect to which the Holder has elected to effect Early Settlement, plus (B) if such delivery is made with respect to any Purchase Contracts during the period from the close of business on any Record Date next preceding any Payment Date to the opening of business on such Payment Date, an amount equal to the Contract Adjustment Payments (including any Deferred Contract Adjustment Payments) payable on such Payment Date with respect to such Purchase Contracts.

Upon Early Settlement of Purchase Contracts by a Holder of the related Units, the Pledged Notes shall be released from the Pledge as provided in the Pledge Agreement and the Holder shall be entitled to receive a number of shares of Common Stock on account of each Purchase Contract forming part of a Corporate Unit as to which Early Settlement is effected equal to [ ] shares of Common Stock per Purchase Contract (the Early Settlement Rate). The Early Settlement Rate shall be adjusted in the same manner and at the same time as the Settlement Rate is adjusted as provided in Section 5.4 of the Purchase Contract Agreement.

Upon the occurrence of a Cash Merger, a Holder of Corporate Units may effect Cash Merger Early Settlement of the Purchase Contract underlying such Corporate Units pursuant to the terms of Section 5.4(b)(ii) of the Purchase Contract Agreement. Upon Cash Merger Early Settlement of Purchase Contracts by a Holder of the related Corporate Units, the Pledged Notes shall be released from the Pledge as provided in the Pledge Agreement.

Upon registration of transfer of this Corporate Units Certificate, the transferee shall be bound (without the necessity of any other action on the part of such transferee, except as may be required by the Purchase Contract Agent pursuant to the Purchase Contract Agreement), under the terms of the Purchase Contract Agreement and the Purchase Contracts evidenced hereby and the transferor shall be released from the obligations under the Purchase Contracts evidenced by this Corporate Units Certificate. The Issuer covenants and agrees, and the Holder, by its acceptance hereof, likewise covenant and agree, to be bound by the provisions of this paragraph.

The Holder of this Corporate Units Certificate, by its acceptance hereof, authorizes the Purchase Contract Agent to enter into and perform the related Purchase Contracts forming part of the Corporate Units evidenced hereby on its behalf as its attorney-in-fact, expressly withholds any consent to the assumption (i.e., affirmance) of the Purchase Contracts by the Issuer or its trustee in the event that the Issuer becomes the debtor under the Bankruptcy Code or subject to other similar state or Federal law providing for reorganization or liquidation, agrees to be bound by the terms and provisions thereof, covenants and agrees to perform its obligations under such Purchase Contracts, consents to the provisions of the Purchase Contract Agreement, authorizes the Purchase Contract Agent to enter into and perform the Purchase Contract Agreement and the Pledge Agreement on its behalf as its attorney-in-fact, and consents to the Pledge of the Notes pursuant to the Pledge Agreement. The Holder further covenants and agrees that, to the extent and in the manner provided in the Purchase Contract Agreement and the Pledge Agreement, but subject to the terms thereof, payments with respect to the aggregate principal amount of the Pledged Notes on the Purchase Contract Settlement Date shall be paid by the Collateral Agent to the Issuer in satisfaction of such Holder's obligations under such Purchase Contract and such Holder shall acquire no right, title or interest in such payments.

Subject to certain exceptions, the provisions of the Purchase Contract Agreement may be amended with the consent of the Holders of a majority of the Purchase Contracts.

The Purchase Contracts shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to the conflicts of law provisions thereof.

Prior to due presentment of this Certificate for registration of transfer, the Issuer, the Purchase Contract Agent and its Affiliates and any agent of the Issuer or the Purchase Contract Agent may treat the Person in whose name this Corporate Units Certificate is registered as the owner of the Corporate Units evidenced hereby for the purpose of receiving payments of interest payable on the Notes, receiving payments of Contract Adjustment Payments (subject to any applicable record date), performance of the Purchase Contracts and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not any payments in respect thereof be overdue and notwithstanding any notice to the contrary, and neither the Issuer, the Purchase Contract Agent nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

The Purchase Contracts shall not, prior to the settlement thereof, entitle the Holder to any of the rights of a holder of shares of Common Stock.

A copy of the Purchase Contract Agreement is available for inspection at the offices of the Purchase Contract Agent.

REVERSE OF TREASURY UNIT CERTIFICATE

Each Purchase Contract evidenced hereby is governed by a Purchase Contract Agreement, dated as of [ ], (as such may be supplemented from time to time, the Purchase Contract Agreement) between the Issuer and [ • ], as Purchase Contract Agent (including its successors thereunder, herein called the Purchase Contract Agent), to which the Purchase Contract Agreement and supplemental agreements thereto reference is hereby made for a description of the respective rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities thereunder of the Purchase Contract Agent, the Issuer and the Holders and of the terms upon which the Treasury Units Certificates are, and are to be, executed and delivered.

Each Purchase Contract evidenced hereby obligates the Holder of this Treasury Units Certificate to purchase, and the Issuer to sell, on the Purchase Contract Settlement Date at a price equal to the Stated Amount (the Purchase Price) a number of newly issued shares of Common Stock equal to the Settlement Rate, unless an Early Settlement, a Cash Merger Early Settlement or a Termination Event with respect to the Units of which such Purchase Contract is a part shall have occurred. The Settlement Rate is equal to:

1.: if the Adjusted Applicable Market Value (as defined below) is greater than or equal to $[ ] (the Threshold Appreciation Price), [ ] shares of Common Stock per Purchase Contract;
2.: if the Adjusted Applicable Market Value is less than the Threshold Appreciation Price but greater than $[ ] (the Reference Price), the number of shares of Common Stock per Purchase Contact having a value equal to the Stated Amount divided by the Adjusted Applicable Market Value; and

3.: if the Adjusted Applicable Market Value is less than or equal to the Reference Price, [ ] shares of Common Stock per Purchase Contract;

in each case subject to adjustment as provided in the Purchase Contract Agreement (and in each case rounded upward or downward to the nearest 1/10,000th of a share).

No fractional shares of Common Stock will be issued upon settlement of Purchase Contracts, as provided in Section 5.9 of the Purchase Contract Agreement.

Each Purchase Contract evidenced hereby that is settled through Early Settlement or Cash Merger Early Settlement shall obligate the Holder of the related Treasury Units to purchase at the Purchase Price, and the Issuer to sell, a number of newly issued shares of Common Stock equal to the Early Settlement Rate (in the case of an Early Settlement) or applicable Settlement Rate (in the case of a Cash Merger Early Settlement).

The Applicable Market Value means the average of the Closing Prices per share of Common Stock on each of the 20 consecutive Trading Days ending on the third Trading Day immediately preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, subject to adjustments set forth under Section 5.4 hereof.

The Adjusted Applicable Market Value means (i) prior to any adjustment of the Settlement Rate pursuant to paragraph (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v), (vi), (vii) or (x) of Section 5.4(a) of the Purchase Contract Agreement, the Applicable Market Value, and (ii) at the time of and after any adjustment of the Settlement Rate pursuant to paragraph (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v), (vi), (vii) or (x) of Section 5.4(a) of the Purchase Contract Agreement, the Applicable Market Value multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the Settlement Rate immediately after such adjustment pursuant to paragraph (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v), (vi), (vii) or (x) of Section 5.4(a) of the Purchase Contract Agreement and the denominator of which shall be the Settlement Rate immediately prior to such adjustment; provided, however, that if such adjustment to the Settlement Rate is required to be made pursuant to the occurrence of any of the events contemplated by paragraph (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v), (vi), (vii) or (x) of Section 5.4(a) of the Purchase Contract Agreement during the period taken into consideration for determining the Applicable Market Value, appropriate and customary adjustments shall be made to the Settlement Rate.

A Trading Day means a day on which the Common Stock (1) is not suspended from trading on any national or regional securities exchange or association or over-the-counter market at the close of business and has traded at least once on the national or regional securities exchange or association or over-the-counter market that is the primary market for the trading of the Common Stock.

In accordance with the terms of the Purchase Contract Agreement, the Holder of this Treasury Unit shall pay the Purchase Price for the shares of the Common Stock purchased pursuant to each Purchase Contract evidenced hereby either by effecting a Cash Settlement, an Early Settlement or, if applicable, a Cash Merger Early Settlement of each such Purchase

Contract or by applying a principal amount of the Pledged Treasury Securities underlying such Holder's Treasury Unit equal to the Stated Amount of such Purchase Contract to the purchase of the Common Stock. A Holder of Treasury Units who on or prior to 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth Business Day prior to the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, does not make an effective Early Settlement shall pay the Purchase Price, less the amount of any Deferred Contract Adjustment Payments payable to such Holder, for the shares of Common Stock to be issued under the related Purchase Contract from the proceeds of the Pledged Treasury Securities.

The Issuer shall not be obligated to issue any shares of Common Stock in respect of a Purchase Contract or deliver any certificates therefor to the Holder unless it shall have received payment of the aggregate purchase price for the shares of Common Stock to be purchased thereunder in the manner set forth in the Purchase Contract Agreement.

The Issuer has the right to defer payment of all or part of the Contract Adjustment Payments in respect of each Purchase Contract until no later than the Purchase Contract Settlement Date (or in the event of an effective Early Settlement or Cash Merger Early Settlement, the Early Settlement Date or Cash Merger Early Settlement Date, as the case may be) as set forth in the Purchase Contract Agreement. If the Issuer so elects to defer Contract Adjustment Payments, the Issuer shall pay additional Contract Adjustment Payments on such deferred installments of Contract Adjustment Payments at a rate equal to [ ]% per annum, compounding on each succeeding Payment Date, until such deferred installments are paid. In the event that the Issuer elects to defer the payment of Contract Adjustment Payments on the Purchase Contracts until the Purchase Contract Settlement Date (or, in the event of an effective Early Settlement or Cash Merger Early Settlement, the Early Settlement Date or Cash Merger Early Settlement Date, as the case may be), each Holder will receive on the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, Early Settlement Date or Cash Merger Early Settlement Date, as applicable, the aggregate amount of Deferred Contract Adjustment Payments to the extent such fees are not deducted from the Settlement Price in the case of a Cash Settlement or any Early Settlement or Cash Merger Early Settlement as set forth in the Purchase Contract Agreement.

The Purchase Contracts and all obligations and rights of the Issuer and the Holders thereunder, including, without limitation, the rights of the Holders to receive and the obligation of the Issuer to pay any Contract Adjustment Payments, shall immediately and automatically terminate, without the necessity of any notice or action by any Holder, the Purchase Contract Agent or the Issuer, if, on or prior to the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, a Termination Event shall have occurred. Upon the occurrence of a Termination Event, the Issuer shall promptly but in no event later than two Business Days thereafter give written notice to the Purchase Contract Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Holders, at their addresses as they appear in the Security Register. Upon and after the occurrence of a Termination Event, the Collateral Agent shall release the Pledged Treasury Securities (as defined in the Pledge Agreement) forming a part of each Treasury Unit. A Treasury Unit shall thereafter represent the right to receive the Proceeds of the Treasury Security forming a part of such Treasury Unit, in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Contract Agreement and the Pledge Agreement.

The Treasury Units Certificates are issuable only in registered form and only in denominations of a single Treasury Unit and any integral multiple thereof. The transfer of any Treasury Units Certificate will be registered and Treasury Units Certificates may be exchanged as provided in the Purchase Contract Agreement. The Security Registrar may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents permitted by the Purchase Contract Agreement. No service charge shall be required for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Issuer and the Purchase Contract Agent may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith. A Holder who elects to substitute Notes, for Treasury Securities, thereby recreating Corporate Units, shall be responsible for any fees or expenses associated therewith. Except as provided in the Purchase Contract Agreement, for so long as the Purchase Contract underlying a Treasury Unit remains in effect, such Treasury Unit shall not be separable into its constituent parts, and the rights and obligations of the Holder of such Treasury Unit in respect of the Treasury Security and the Purchase Contract constituting such Treasury Unit may be transferred and exchanged only as a Treasury Unit.

A Holder of Treasury Units may recreate, at any time prior to 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth Business Day immediately preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, Corporate Units by delivering to the Securities Intermediary Notes with an aggregate principal amount, equal to the aggregate principal amount at maturity of the Pledged Treasury Securities in exchange for the release of such Pledged Treasury Securities in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Contract Agreement and the Pledge Agreement. From and after such substitution, the Holder's Units shall be referred to as a Corporate Unit. Any such creation of Corporate Units may be effected only in multiples of 40 Treasury Units for 40 Corporate Units.

The Issuer shall pay, on each Payment Date, the Contract Adjustment Payments payable in respect of each Purchase Contract to the Person in whose name the Treasury Units Certificate evidencing such Purchase Contract is registered at the close of business on the Record Date for such Payment Date. Contract Adjustment Payments will be payable at the office of the Purchase Contract Agent in New York City or, at the option of the Holder, by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto at such address as it appears on the Security Register.

The Purchase Contracts and all obligations and rights of the Issuer and the Holders thereunder, including, without limitation, the rights of the Holders to receive and the obligation of the Issuer to pay any Contract Adjustment Payments, shall immediately and automatically terminate, without the necessity of any notice or action by any Holder, the Purchase Contract Agent or the Issuer, if, on or prior to the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, a Termination Event shall have occurred. Upon the occurrence of a Termination Event, the Issuer shall promptly but in no event later than two Business Days thereafter give written notice to the Purchase Contract Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Holders, at their addresses as they appear in the Security Register. Upon and after the occurrence of a Termination Event, the Collateral Agent shall release the Treasury Securities from the Pledge in accordance with the provisions of the Pledge Agreement. A Treasury Unit shall thereafter represent the right to receive the interest in the Treasury Security forming a part of such Treasury Unit, in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Contract Agreement and the Pledge Agreement.

Subject to and upon compliance with the provisions of the Purchase Contract Agreement, at the option of the Holder thereof, Purchase Contracts underlying Units may be settled early (Early Settlement) as provided in the Purchase Contract Agreement. In order to exercise the right to effect Early Settlement with respect to any Purchase Contract evidenced by this Certificate, the Holder of this Treasury Units Certificate shall deliver to the Purchase Contract Agent at the Corporate Trust Office an Election to Settle Early form set forth below duly completed and accompanied by payment in the form of immediately available funds payable to the order of the Issuer in an amount (the Early Settlement Amount) equal to:

(ii): the sum of (A) the product of (i) the Stated Amount times the number of Purchase Contracts with respect to which the Holder has elected to effect Early Settlement, plus (B) if such delivery is made with respect to any Purchase Contracts during the period from the close of business on any Record Date next preceding any Payment Date to the opening of business on such Payment Date, an amount equal to the Contract Adjustment Payments (including any Deferred Contract Adjustment Payments) payable on such Payment Date with respect to such Purchase Contracts.

Upon Early Settlement of Purchase Contracts by a Holder of the related Units, the Pledged Treasury Securities underlying such Units shall be released from the Pledge as provided in the Pledge Agreement and the Holder shall be entitled to receive a number of shares of Common Stock on account of each Purchase Contract forming part of a Treasury Unit as to which Early Settlement is effected equal to [ ] shares of Common Stock per Purchase Contract (the Early Settlement Rate). The Early Settlement Rate shall be adjusted in the same manner and at the same time as the Settlement Rate is adjusted as provided in Section 5.4 of the Purchase Contract Agreement.

Upon the occurrence of a Cash Merger, a Holder of Treasury Units may effect Cash Merger Early Settlement of the Purchase Contract underlying such Treasury Units pursuant to the terms of Section 5.4(b)(ii) of the Purchase Contract Agreement. Upon Cash Merger Early Settlement of Purchase Contracts by a Holder of the related Treasury Units, the Pledged Treasury Securities underlying such Treasury Units shall be released from the Pledge as provided in the Pledge Agreement.

Upon registration of transfer of this Treasury Units Certificate, the transferee shall be bound (without the necessity of any other action on the part of such transferee, except as may be required by the Purchase Contract Agent pursuant to the Purchase Contract Agreement), under the terms of the Purchase Contract Agreement and the Purchase Contracts evidenced hereby and the transferor shall be released from the obligations under the Purchase Contracts evidenced by this Treasury Units Certificate. The Issuer covenants and agrees, and the Holder, by its acceptance hereof, likewise covenants and agrees, to be bound by the provisions of this paragraph.

The Holder of this Treasury Units Certificate, by its acceptance hereof, authorizes the Purchase Contract Agent to enter into and perform the related Purchase Contracts forming part of the Treasury Units evidenced hereby on its behalf as its attorney-in-fact, expressly withholds any consent to the assumption (i.e., affirmance) of the Purchase Contracts by the Issuer or its trustee in the event that the Issuer becomes the debtor under the Bankruptcy Code or subject to other similar state or Federal law providing for reorganization or liquidation, agrees to be bound by the terms and provisions thereof, covenants and agrees to perform its obligations under such Purchase Contracts, consents to the provisions of the Purchase Contract Agreement, authorizes the Purchase Contract Agent to enter into and perform the Purchase Contract Agreement and the Pledge Agreement on its behalf as its attorney-in-fact, and consents to the Pledge of the Treasury Securities underlying this Treasury Units Certificate pursuant to the Pledge Agreement. The Holder further covenants and agrees, that, to the extent and in the manner provided in the Purchase Contract Agreement and the Pledge Agreement, but subject to the terms thereof, payments in respect to the aggregate principal amount of the Pledged Treasury Securities on the Purchase Contract Settlement Date shall be paid by the Collateral Agent to the Issuer in satisfaction of such Holder's obligations under such Purchase Contract and such Holder shall acquire no right, title or interest in such payments.

Subject to certain exceptions, the provisions of the Purchase Contract Agreement may be amended with the consent of the Holders of a majority of the Purchase Contracts.

The Purchase Contracts shall for all purposes be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to the conflicts of law provisions thereof.

Prior to due presentment of this Certificate for registration or transfer, the Issuer, the Purchase Contract Agent and its Affiliates and any agent of the Issuer or the Purchase Contract Agent may treat the Person in whose name this Treasury Units Certificate is registered as the owner of the Treasury Units evidenced hereby for the purpose of receiving payments of interest on the Treasury Securities, receiving payments of Contract Adjustment Payments (subject to any applicable record date), performance of the Purchase Contracts and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not any payments in respect thereof be overdue and notwithstanding any notice to the contrary, and neither the Issuer, the Purchase Contract Agent nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.
