Increase in Conversion Rate upon Conversion upon a Make-Whole Fundamental Change or Notice of Redemption:   

Holders who convert their notes in connection with a make-whole fundamental change or a notice of redemption may be entitled to an increase in the conversion rate for the notes so surrendered for conversion. The amount of any such increase will depend upon the applicable “stock price” (the price paid (or deemed to be paid) per share of our common stock in the relevant make-whole fundamental change or determined with respect to the notice of redemption, as the case may be) and the applicable “effective date” (the date on which the make-whole fundamental change occurs or becomes effective, or the date we deliver the notice of redemption, as the case may be).

 

The following table sets forth the number of additional shares by which the conversion rate will be increased per $1,000 principal amount of notes for each stock price and effective date set forth below:

 

     Stock Price  

Effective Date

   $ 17.50      $ 18.00      $ 20.00      $ 22.31      $ 25.00      $ 29.01      $ 35.00      $ 40.00      $ 50.00      $ 60.00      $ 75.00

The exact stock prices and effective dates may not be set forth in the table above, in which case:

 

   

If the stock price is between two stock prices in the table or the effective date is between two effective dates in the table, the number of additional shares by which the conversion rate will be increased will be determined by a straight-line interpolation between the number of additional shares set forth for the higher and lower stock prices and the earlier and later effective dates, as applicable, based on a 365-day year;

 

   

If the stock price is greater than $75.00 per share (subject to adjustment in the same manner as the stock prices set forth in the column headings of the table above), no additional shares will be added to the conversion rate; and

 

   

If the stock price is less than $17.50 per share (subject to adjustment in the same manner as the stock prices set forth in the column headings of the table above), no additional shares will be added to the conversion rate.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event will the conversion rate per $1,000 principal amount of notes exceed 57.1428 shares of common stock, subject to adjustment in the same manner as the conversion rate as set forth under “Description of Notes—Conversion Rate Adjustments” in the Convertible Notes Preliminary Prospectus.
