Dividends on each share of Convertible Preferred Stock shall cease to accumulate upon conversion or redemption, as the case may be, of such share of Convertible Preferred Stock, except as set forth in this Statement with Respect to Shares.

(d) If a Dividend Payment Date falls on a date that is not a Business Day, the dividend payment due on such date shall instead be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and no interest or other payment shall be paid in respect of such delay.

(e) Dividends on the Convertible Preferred Stock shall accumulate whether or not (i) the Corporation has earnings; (ii) there are funds legally available for the payment of those dividends; or (iii) those dividends are authorized or declared. Any dividend payment made on shares of Convertible Preferred Stock shall first be credited against the earliest accumulated but unpaid dividends due with respect to those shares of Convertible Preferred Stock which remain payable.

(f) So long as any shares of Convertible Preferred Stock remain Outstanding, unless full cumulative dividends, if any, on the Convertible Preferred Stock for all past, completed Dividend Periods (including Compounded Dividends thereon), if any, have been or contemporaneously are declared and paid or declared and a sum or number of shares of Common Stock sufficient for the payment thereof is set apart for payment, the Corporation (i) shall not declare and pay or declare and set aside for payment of dividends and shall not declare and make any distribution of cash or other property, directly or indirectly, on or with respect to any Junior Stock or Parity Stock, for any period; (ii) shall not redeem, purchase or otherwise acquire for any consideration, or make any other distribution of cash or other property, directly or indirectly, on or with respect to, or pay or make available any monies for a sinking fund for the redemption of, any Junior Stock or Parity Stock; or (iii) shall not redeem, purchase or otherwise acquire for any consideration, or make any other distribution of cash or other property, directly or indirectly, on or with respect to the Purchase Contracts or make any payments (including any Contract Adjustment Payments) under the Purchase Contracts or any payment under any similar agreement providing for the issuance by the Corporation of its Capital Stock on a forward basis; provided, however, that, notwithstanding any provisions of this Section 4(f) to the contrary, the Corporation may make any Permitted Distribution. When the Corporation does not pay dividends, if any, in full (or does not set apart a sum or a number of shares of Common Stock sufficient to pay dividends in full) on the Convertible Preferred Stock and any other class or

- 15 -

series of Capital Stock of the Corporation the terms of which expressly provide that such class or series ranks on parity with the Convertible Preferred Stock as to dividend rights, the Corporation will declare any dividends upon the Convertible Preferred Stock and such other class or series of Capital Stock pro rata, so that the amount of dividends declared per share of Convertible Preferred Stock and such other class or series of Capital Stock will in all cases bear to each other the same ratio that accumulated but unpaid dividends per share on the Convertible Preferred Stock and such other class or series of Capital Stock (which will not include any accumulation in respect of unpaid dividends on such other class or series of Capital Stock for prior dividend periods if such other class or series of Capital Stock does not have a cumulative dividend) bear to each other.

(g) The Corporation shall not permit any Subsidiary of the Corporation to purchase or otherwise acquire for consideration any shares of stock of the Corporation unless the Corporation could, in accordance with Section 4(f), purchase or otherwise acquire such shares at such time and in such manner (such provisions described in this Section 4(g) and in Section 4(f) above, the “Dividend Blocker Provisions”).

(h) Any accumulated but unpaid dividends shall accumulate additional dividends (“Compounded Dividends”) at the then-applicable Dividend Rate until paid, compounded quarterly, to, but excluding, the Dividend Payment Date.

(i) Holders of shares of Convertible Preferred Stock are not entitled to any dividends in excess of the full cumulative dividends (including Compounded Dividends, if any) on the Convertible Preferred Stock as provided herein.

(j) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Statement with Respect to Shares or the Articles of Incorporation, except in the case of a Dividend Deficiency Event, all accumulated but unpaid dividends (including Compounded Dividends thereon, if any) on the Convertible Preferred Stock, whether or not declared, shall be paid on the Purchase Contract Settlement Date (or, if such date is not a Business Day, the next Business Day), whether or not there is a Successful Remarketing, to the holders of the shares of Convertible Preferred Stock as of the immediately preceding Dividend Record Date. If a Dividend Deficiency Event occurs, following the Final Remarketing (whether a Successful Final Remarketing or an Unsuccessful Final Remarketing), the Corporation shall have no obligation to pay the then-accumulated but unpaid dividends on the Convertible Preferred Stock on the Purchase Contract Settlement Date (or such next Business Day, if applicable) to the holders of the shares of Convertible Preferred Stock as of the Dividend Record Date immediately preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement Date. However, the right of holders of the Convertible Preferred Stock to receive such accumulated but unpaid dividends (including Compounded Dividends thereon) shall continue to exist (and such accumulated but unpaid dividends shall continue to compound) with respect to such Convertible Preferred Stock for so long as the Convertible Preferred Stock remains outstanding, notwithstanding such Final Remarketing, and such dividends shall be payable to the holders of such Convertible Preferred Stock as of the close of business on the Dividend Record Date for the Dividend Payment Date on which such dividends are subsequently declared and paid (if ever).

- 16 -

5. Method of Payment of Dividends.

(a) Subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 5, and unless the Corporation has previously elected a Dividend Payment Method as set forth herein, the Corporation may pay any dividend (or any portion of any dividend) on the Convertible Preferred Stock (whether or not for a current Dividend Period or any prior Dividend Period) and any Compounded Dividends, determined in the sole discretion of the Board of Directors: (i) in cash; (ii) by delivery of shares of Common Stock; or (iii) through any combination of cash and shares of Common Stock.

(b) Each declared dividend shall be paid in cash, except to the extent the Corporation timely elects, or has previously elected, to make all or any portion of such dividend in shares of Common Stock. Unless the Corporation has previously irrevocably elected a Dividend Payment Method to apply as set forth below, the Corporation shall give notice to holders of the Convertible Preferred Stock of any election with respect to any particular dividend payment, the portions of such dividend payment that will be made in cash and the portion of such payment that will be made in Common Stock no later than eight Scheduled Trading Days prior to the Dividend Payment Date for such dividend.

(c) Any shares of Common Stock issued in payment or partial payment of a dividend shall be valued for such purpose at the applicable Five-Day Average Price, multiplied by 97%; provided, however, that (i) the number of shares of Common Stock that the Corporation will deliver as payment for any declared dividend on the Convertible Preferred Stock will be limited to a maximum number equal to the total dollar amount of the declared dividend (including any portion thereof that the Corporation has not elected to pay in shares of Common Stock) divided by the Floor Price in effect on the second Trading Day immediately preceding the applicable Dividend Payment Date; and (ii) if the dollar amount of any declared dividend per share of Convertible Preferred Stock that the Corporation has duly elected to pay in shares of Common Stock exceeds the product of (x) 97% of the applicable Five-Day Average Price and (y) the number of shares of Common Stock deliverable (without regard to the Corporation’s obligation to pay cash in lieu of delivering any fractional share of Common Stock) per share of Convertible Preferred Stock in respect of such dividend, then the Corporation will, to the extent it is not prohibited from doing so as a result of a Dividend Deficiency Event, declare and pay such excess amount in cash (clauses (i) and (ii) of this proviso being referred to as the “Share Limitation Provision”). For the avoidance of doubt, any cash amount referred to in clause (ii) of the Share Limitation Provision that the Corporation fails to declare and pay will be deemed to be accumulated but unpaid dividends on the Convertible Preferred Stock. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Statement with Respect to Shares, the Corporation will have the right, exercisable at its sole election by notice sent to the holders of the Convertible Preferred Stock, to irrevocably eliminate the Share Limitation Provision. If the Corporation has made such an irrevocable election, then the Corporation will state so in each subsequent notice, if any, that the Corporation sends electing to pay any portion of a declared dividend on the Convertible Preferred Stock in shares of Common Stock. For the avoidance of doubt, such an irrevocable election, if made, will be effective without the need to amend or supplement this Statement with Respect to Shares, including pursuant to Section 15(c)(vi). However, the Corporation may nonetheless choose to effect such an amendment or supplement at its option. In addition, such irrevocable election, if made, will not affect any prior election that the Corporation has made or prior notice that the Corporation has sent with respect to the payment of any portion of a declared dividend on the Convertible Preferred Stock in shares of Common Stock.

- 17 -

(d) Without the consent of any holders of the Convertible Preferred Stock, the Corporation may, by notice to such holders, irrevocably elect whether the Corporation will pay dividend payments, if any, in cash, shares of Common Stock or a combination thereof (a “Dividend Payment Method”) and, if applicable, the amount or percentage of a dividend payment to be paid in Common Stock, to apply to any dividend payment following such notice (unless a Dividend Payment Method has previously been designated) and, subject to the foregoing, specify the effective time of such election (which may be at any time subsequent to the delivery of such notice). The Corporation’s irrevocable election of a Dividend Payment Method as described herein may be made by the Corporation in its sole discretion. For the avoidance of doubt, such an irrevocable election will not affect the operation of Section 5(c).

(e) No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be delivered by the Corporation to holders of the Convertible Preferred Stock in payment or partial payment of a dividend. Instead, a cash adjustment shall be paid by the Corporation to each holder of Convertible Preferred Stock that would otherwise be entitled to receive a fraction of a share of Common Stock based on (x) the Five-Day Average Price and (y) the aggregate number of shares of Convertible Preferred Stock held by such holder (or if such holder’s shares of Convertible Preferred Stock are in the form of Global Preferred Shares, based on the applicable procedures of the Depositary for determining such number of shares).

(f) To the extent that the Corporation, in its reasonable judgment, determines that a Registration Statement is required in connection with the issuance of, or for resales (by Persons who are not, and have not been at any time during the preceding three months, Affiliates of the Corporation) of, Common Stock issued as payment of a dividend, if any, the Corporation shall, to the extent such a Registration Statement is not currently filed and effective, use its commercially reasonable efforts to file and maintain the effectiveness of such a Registration Statement until the earlier of such time as all such shares of Common Stock have been resold thereunder and such time as all such shares are freely tradable by such non-Affiliates of the Corporation without registration. To the extent applicable, the Corporation shall also use its commercially reasonable efforts to have such shares of Common Stock qualified or registered under applicable U.S. state securities laws, if required, and approved for listing on the New York Stock Exchange (or if the Common Stock is not then listed on the New York Stock Exchange, on the principal other U.S. national or regional securities exchange on which the Common Stock is then listed).

(g) Any dividends paid in shares of Common Stock shall be subject to the listing standards of the New York Stock Exchange, if applicable.

6. Liquidation Preference.

(a) In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary, before any payment or distribution of the Corporation’s assets (whether capital or surplus) shall be made to or set apart for the holders of any class or series of the Corporation’s common stock, including the Common Stock, or any other class or series of Capital Stock of the Corporation, the terms of which expressly provide that such class or series ranks junior to the Convertible Preferred Stock as to on liquidation, winding-up and dissolution of the Corporation, holders of Convertible Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive $1,000 per

- 18 -

share of Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Liquidation Preference”) plus an amount equal to all dividends (whether or not authorized or declared), accumulated but unpaid thereon, if any, up to but excluding the date of payment, but subject to the prior payment in full of all the Corporation’s liabilities and the payment of each class or series of Capital Stock of the Corporation the terms of which expressly provide that such class or series ranks senior to the Convertible Preferred Stock as to rights on liquidation, winding up and dissolution of the Corporation. If, upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Corporation, the Corporation’s assets, or proceeds thereof, are insufficient to pay in full the preferential amount aforesaid and liquidating payments on Convertible Preferred Stock and any other Parity Stock, then such assets, or the proceeds thereof, shall be distributed among the holders of the Convertible Preferred Stock and any other Parity Stock ratably in proportion to the respective amounts that would be payable on such shares of Convertible Preferred Stock and any such other Parity Stock as if all amounts payable thereon were paid in full.

(b) The Corporation shall instruct the Depositary to notify its participants, or if the Depositary or its nominee is not the sole registered owner of the then outstanding Convertible Preferred Stock, send a written notice by first class mail to each holder of record of the Convertible Preferred Stock at such holder’s registered address, of any event triggering the right to receive a distribution in connection with any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation.

(c) Neither the consolidation or merger with or into any other Person, nor the voluntary sale, lease, transfer or conveyance of all or substantially all of the Corporation’s property or assets shall be deemed to be a voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Corporation.

(d) Subject to the rights of the holders of any other Parity Stock, after payment has been made in full to the holders of the Convertible Preferred Stock, as provided in this Section 6, holders of all classes or series of the Corporation’s common stock, including the Common Stock, and any other classes or series of Capital Stock of the Corporation, the terms of which expressly provide that such class or series ranks junior to the Convertible Preferred Stock as to rights on liquidation, winding-up and dissolution of the Corporation, shall, subject to the respective terms and provisions (if any) applying thereto, be entitled to receive any and all assets remaining to be paid or distributed, and the holders of Convertible Preferred Stock shall not be entitled to share therein.

7. No Maturity. The Convertible Preferred Stock has no maturity date or mandatory conversion date.

8. Optional Redemption of the Convertible Preferred Stock. Shares of Convertible Preferred Stock shall be redeemable by the Corporation in accordance with this Section 8.

(a) The Corporation may not redeem any shares of Convertible Preferred Stock prior to the First Redemption Date. On or after the First Redemption Date, the Corporation may redeem, subject to Section 8(k) hereof, some or all the shares of the Convertible Preferred Stock at the Redemption Price. The Redemption Price shall be paid solely in cash.

- 19 -

(b) In the event the Corporation elects to redeem shares of Convertible Preferred Stock, the Corporation shall:

(i) provide, not fewer than 25 Scheduled Trading Days nor more than 90 calendar days prior to the Redemption Date, to the Depositary a written notice (the “Redemption Notice”) stating, and instruct the Depositary to notify its participants of:

(A) the Redemption Date;

(B) the Redemption Price;

(D) that shares of Convertible Preferred Stock called for redemption may be converted pursuant to Section 9 at any time before the close of business on the second Business Day immediately preceding the Redemption Date;

(E) if fewer than all the Outstanding shares of the Convertible Preferred Stock are to be redeemed by the Corporation, the number of shares to be redeemed;

(F) that, unless the Corporation defaults in making payment of such Redemption Price, dividends, if any, in respect of the shares of Convertible Preferred Stock called for redemption will cease to accumulate on and after the Redemption Date;

(G) the CUSIP number of the Convertible Preferred Stock; and

(H) any other information the Corporation wishes to present;

(ii) (A) issue a press release containing the information set forth in Section 8(b)(i) or (B) include the same information in a current report that is filed with, or furnished to, the Commission; and

(iii) if the Depositary or its nominee is not the sole registered owner of the then outstanding Convertible Preferred Stock, send the Redemption Notice by first class mail to each holder of record of the Convertible Preferred Stock at such holder’s registered address; provided, however, that such Redemption Notice shall also state that the certificates evidencing the shares of the Convertible Preferred Stock called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect the Redemption Price.

(c) The Corporation shall not give any Redemption Notice prior to the earlier of a Remarketing Settlement Date and the Purchase Contract Settlement Date.

- 20 -

(d) If the Corporation gives a Redemption Notice, then, by 12:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Redemption Date, the Corporation shall, with respect to:

(i) shares of Convertible Preferred Stock registered in the name of the Depositary or its nominee, deposit or cause to be deposited, irrevocably with the Depositary cash sufficient to pay the Redemption Price and shall give the Depositary irrevocable instructions and authority to pay the Redemption Price to holders of such shares of Convertible Preferred Stock; and

(ii) shares of Convertible Preferred Stock registered in the name of any holder other than the Depositary or its nominee, deposit or cause to be deposited, irrevocably with the Paying Agent cash sufficient to pay the Redemption Price and give the Paying Agent irrevocable instructions and authority to pay the Redemption Price to holders of such shares of the Convertible Preferred Stock upon surrender to the Paying Agent of their certificates evidencing their shares of the Convertible Preferred Stock.

(e) If on the Redemption Date there has been irrevocably deposited with the Depositary and/or the Paying Agent cash sufficient to pay the Redemption Price for the shares of Convertible Preferred Stock to be redeemed, except as set forth in Section 8(h), dividends, if any, shall cease to accumulate as of the Redemption Date on those shares of the Convertible Preferred Stock called for redemption and all rights of holders of such shares shall terminate, except for the right to receive the Redemption Price pursuant to this Section 8 (and, if applicable, any declared dividend pursuant to Section 8(h)), and such shares shall no longer be deemed to be Outstanding and any appropriate annotation on the certificates representing such shares to reflect such reduced balance shall be made.

(f) Payment of the Redemption Price for shares of the Convertible Preferred Stock of which the Depositary (or its nominee) is not the sole registered owner is conditioned upon surrender of certificates representing such Convertible Preferred Stock, together with necessary endorsements, to the Paying Agent at any time after delivery of the Redemption Notice.

(g) Payment of the Redemption Price for shares of the Convertible Preferred Stock shall be made on the Redemption Date, subject to Section 8(f).

(h) If the Redemption Date falls after a Dividend Record Date and on or before the related Dividend Payment Date, holders of the shares of Convertible Preferred Stock at the close of business on that Dividend Record Date shall be entitled to receive the full dividend payable on those shares on the corresponding Dividend Payment Date.

(i) If fewer than all the Outstanding shares of Convertible Preferred Stock are to be redeemed, the number of shares to be redeemed shall be determined by the Corporation and the shares to be redeemed shall be selected by lot, on a pro rata basis (with any fractional shares being rounded to the nearest whole share), or in accordance with, and subject to, the applicable procedures of the Depositary.

(j) Upon surrender of a certificate or certificates representing shares of the Convertible Preferred Stock that is or are redeemed in part, the Corporation shall execute, and the Transfer Agent shall authenticate and deliver to the holder, a new certificate or certificates representing shares of the Convertible Preferred Stock in an amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the shares of Convertible Preferred Stock surrendered for partial redemption.

- 21 -

(k) If any shares of Convertible Preferred Stock are called for redemption, the Corporation must also call for redemption a proportionate number (rounded to the nearest whole number) of outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock, if any, on the same Redemption Date. If any shares of Series B Preferred Stock are called for redemption, the Corporation must also call for redemption a proportionate number (rounded to the nearest whole number) of outstanding shares of Convertible Preferred Stock on the same Redemption Date.

(l) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 8, the Corporation shall not authorize, issue a press release or give a Redemption Notice unless (i) the Corporation has funds legally available for the payment of the aggregate Redemption Price and (ii) prior to giving such notice, (A) all accumulated but unpaid dividends on the Convertible Preferred Stock (whether or not declared), if any, for Dividend Periods ended prior to the date of such notice shall have been or contemporaneously are declared and paid out of legally available funds and (B) if the Redemption Date occurs following a Dividend Record Date and on or prior to the related Dividend Payment Date, a cash dividend for the related Dividend Period has been declared and sufficient funds legally available therefor have been set aside for payment of such dividend.

9. Conversion.

(a) Right to Convert.

(i) Shares of Convertible Preferred Stock corresponding to the Applicable Ownership Interest in Convertible Preferred Stock that are components of Corporate Units cannot be converted. Only Separate Shares of Convertible Preferred Stock can be converted. Subject to and upon compliance with the provisions of this Section 9, each holder of a Separate Share of Convertible Preferred Stock shall have the right, at such holder’s option, to convert such share (x) subject to satisfaction of the condition set forth in Section 9(a)(ii), at any time prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding June 1, 2024 under the circumstances and during the periods set forth in Section 9(a)(ii), and (y) regardless of the conditions set forth in Section 9(a)(ii), at any time on or after June 1, 2024, in each case, based on the Conversion Rate (in each case, subject to, and in accordance with, Section 9(d))). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any shares of Convertible Preferred Stock are called for redemption pursuant to Section 8, such conversion right shall cease and terminate, as to the shares of the Convertible Preferred Stock to be redeemed, at the close of business on the second Business Day immediately preceding the Redemption Date, unless the Corporation defaults in the payment of the Redemption Price therefor, as provided herein.

(ii) If a transaction or event that constitutes a Fundamental Change occurs prior to a Successful Remarketing, all or any integral number of a holder’s Separate Shares of Convertible Preferred Stock may be surrendered for conversion at any time from or after the Effective Date of such transaction or event until the close of business on the 35th Business Day after such Effective Date (such 35th Business Day, the “Fundamental Change Conversion Deadline,” and such right of conversion, the “Fundamental Change Conversion Right”). If a transaction or event that constitutes a Fundamental Change occurs on or after a Successful Remarketing, there shall be no Fundamental Change Conversion Right.

- 22 -

(b) Conversion Procedures. Conversion of Separate Shares of Convertible Preferred Stock may be effected by any holder thereof (i) if such holder’s shares of Convertible Preferred Stock are in certificated form, upon the surrender to the Corporation, at the principal office of the Corporation or at the designated corporate trust office of the Conversion Agent, of the certificate or certificates, if any, for such shares of the Convertible Preferred Stock to be converted accompanied by a complete and manually or electronically signed notice of conversion (as set forth in the form of Convertible Preferred Stock certificate) along with (x) appropriate endorsements and transfer documents as required by the Registrar or Conversion Agent and (y) if required pursuant to Section 9(c), funds equal to the dividend payable on the next Dividend Payment Date or (ii) if such holder’s shares of Convertible Preferred Stock are in the form of Global Preferred Shares, by (x) complying with the procedures of the Depositary in effect at that time and (y) if required pursuant to Section 9(c), delivering funds equal to the dividend payable on the next Dividend Payment Date. In case such notice of conversion shall specify a name or names other than that of such holder, such notice shall be accompanied by payment of all transfer taxes payable upon the issuance of shares of Series B Preferred Stock, if any, and shares of Common Stock, if any, in such name or names. Other than such taxes, the Corporation shall pay any documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer taxes that may be payable in respect of any issuance or delivery of shares of Series B Preferred Stock or shares of Common Stock upon conversion of shares of the Convertible Preferred Stock pursuant hereto. The conversion of the Convertible Preferred Stock will be deemed to have been made as of the close of business on the first Business Day (the “Conversion Date”) on which the foregoing procedures have been complied with. The Person in whose name any share of Series B Preferred Stock or any share of Common Stock is issuable upon conversion of any Convertible Preferred Stock shall be deemed to become the holder of record of that share of Series B Preferred Stock or Common Stock, as the case may be, as of the close of business on the final Trading Day of the relevant Observation Period. If Series B Preferred Stock or Common Stock, if any, to be issued upon conversion is certificated, then, promptly after the issuance of the Series B Preferred Stock certificate or the Common Stock certificate, as the case may be (or, if the Convertible Preferred Stock is certificated, promptly after, and in any case no later than two Business Days after, the later of the surrender of the certificates representing the shares that are converted and the final Trading Day of the relevant Observation Period), the Corporation shall send or cause to be sent (1) certificates representing the number of validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable full shares of Series B Preferred Stock and Common Stock, as the case may be, to which the holder of shares of the Convertible Preferred Stock being converted (or such holder’s transferee) shall be entitled, if any, and (2) if the Convertible Preferred Stock is then certificated and if less than the full number of shares of the Convertible Preferred Stock represented by the surrendered certificate or certificates, if any, or specified in the notice, are being converted, a new certificate or certificates for the number of shares represented by the surrendered certificate or certificates less the number of shares being converted. Subject to the second immediately preceding sentence, the conversion of any Convertible Preferred Stock shall be deemed to have been made at the close of business on the Conversion Date so that the rights of the holder of shares of Convertible Preferred Stock as to the shares of Convertible Preferred Stock being converted shall cease, except for the right to receive the shares of Series B Preferred Stock or cash, as the case may be, and shares of Common Stock, if any, due upon conversion (and, if applicable, (x) any dividend payment referred to in the second sentence of Section 9(c)(ii) and (y) any payment referred to in clause (y) of Section 9(d)(iv)).

- 23 -

(i) Upon settlement of a conversion of the Convertible Preferred Stock and subject to Section 9(c)(ii) and Section 9(d)(ii), a holder shall not receive cash or other payment of accumulated but unpaid dividends, if any, and the Corporation shall not make any payments in respect of or adjust the Conversion Rate to account for accumulated but unpaid dividends to the Conversion Date, if any, except as provided in Section 10(a).

(ii) If a holder of shares of Convertible Preferred Stock exercises its conversion rights, on and after the Conversion Date, such shares shall cease to accumulate dividends as of the end of the day immediately preceding the Conversion Date, except as set forth in the immediately succeeding sentence. A holder of shares of Convertible Preferred Stock at the close of business on the Dividend Record Date for the payment of a dividend that has been declared shall receive that dividend notwithstanding a conversion of the Convertible Preferred Stock following such Dividend Record Date. However, shares of Convertible Preferred Stock surrendered for conversion after the close of business on any Dividend Record Date for the payment of any declared dividend and before the open of business on the Dividend Payment Date relating to that Dividend Record Date must be accompanied by a payment to the Corporation in cash of an amount equal to the dividend payable in respect of those shares of Convertible Preferred Stock for the Dividend Period in which the shares of Convertible Preferred Stock are converted; provided that no such payment need be made (x) if the Corporation has specified a Redemption Date that is after such Dividend Record Date and on or prior to the second Business Day immediately following the corresponding Dividend Payment Date; or (y) if a Fundamental Change Conversion Deadline occurs after such Dividend Record Date and on or prior to the Business Day immediately following the corresponding Dividend Payment Date.

(d) Settlement Upon Conversion.

(i) Upon conversion of any Convertible Preferred Stock in connection with a redemption of the Convertible Preferred Stock (an “Induced Conversion”) or upon conversion of any Convertible Preferred Stock other than an Induced Conversion (an “Optional Conversion”), the Corporation shall deliver to the converting holder in respect of the Liquidation Preference of each share of Convertible Preferred Stock being converted the consideration set forth in Section 9(d)(ii) or Section 9(d)(iii), as the case may be. A conversion of shares of Convertible Preferred Stock will be deemed for these purposes to be “in connection with a redemption of the Convertible Preferred Stock” if such shares have been (or have been deemed pursuant to the following sentence to be) called for redemption and the relevant Conversion Date occurs from, and including, the effective date of the Redemption Notice to, and including, the second Business Day immediately preceding the relevant Redemption Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Corporation calls less than all outstanding shares of Convertible Preferred Stock for redemption and a holder of any Convertible Preferred Stock (or the owner of a beneficial interest in a Global Preferred Share of Convertible Preferred Stock) is not able to reasonably determine, prior to the close of business on the 26th Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding the relevant Redemption Date, whether the shares of Convertible

- 24 -

Preferred Stock owned by such holder (or beneficially owned by such owner of a beneficial interest, as applicable) are subject to such partial redemption (and, as a result thereof, whether a conversion of such shares of Convertible Preferred Stock (or such beneficial interests, as applicable) with a Conversion Date occurring during the period from, and including, the date of the relevant Redemption Notice to, and including, the second Business Day immediately preceding the Redemption Date would be an Induced Conversion) for any reason, then any conversion of such shares of Convertible Preferred Stock (or such beneficial interests, as applicable) with a Conversion Date occurring during such period will, regardless of whether such shares of Convertible Preferred Stock (or such beneficial interests, as applicable) are subject to such partial redemption, be deemed to be an Induced Conversion for purposes of determining the consideration due upon conversion of such shares of Convertible Preferred Stock (or such beneficial interests, as applicable).

(ii) To satisfy its obligations with respect to an Induced Conversion, the Corporation shall pay and deliver, as the case may be, to the converting holder in respect of the Liquidation Preference of each share of Convertible Preferred Stock being converted an “Induced Conversion Settlement Amount” equal to the sum of the Daily Settlement Amounts for each of the 20 consecutive Trading Days during the related Observation Period, together with a cash amount equal to all accumulated but unpaid dividends, whether or not declared, if any, on such converted Convertible Preferred Stock to, but excluding, the Dividend Payment Date immediately preceding the relevant Conversion Date.

(iii) To satisfy its obligations with respect to an Optional Conversion, the Corporation shall deliver to the converting holder in respect of the Liquidation Preference of each share of Convertible Preferred Stock being converted an “Optional Conversion Settlement Amount” equal to one share of Series B Preferred Stock and a number of shares of Common Stock (if any) equal to the Net Share Settlement Amount.

(iv) Except as provided in the two immediately following sentences or in Section 11, the Corporation shall pay and/or deliver, as the case may be, the Induced Conversion Settlement Amount or the Optional Conversion Settlement Amount, as applicable, to converting holders on the second Business Day following the final Trading Day of the relevant Observation Period and such converting holders will be deemed to be the owners of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock and/or Common Stock, if any, included in the Induced Conversion Settlement Amount or the Optional Conversion Settlement Amount, as applicable, as of the close of business on the last Trading Day of the relevant Observation Period. However, if the Dividend Record Date for a declared dividend on the Series B Preferred Stock occurs during the period from, and including, the first Trading Day of the Observation Period for any Optional Conversion (or, if earlier, the Conversion Date for such Optional Conversion) to, and including, the date such Optional Conversion is otherwise required to be settled in accordance with the preceding sentence, then (x) the Corporation shall have the right to delay the delivery of any shares of Series B Preferred Stock due upon such conversion settlement until no later than the Business Day after the Dividend Payment Date for such dividend and (y) the Corporation shall make a separate payment of cash and/or a separate delivery of

- 25 -

Common Stock, as the case may be, to the relevant converting holder of the amount per share of Convertible Preferred Stock equal to the amount of the dividend payable per share of Series B Preferred Stock on such Dividend Payment Date. In such case, the Person(s) in whose name such shares of Series B Preferred Stock are to be registered will instead be deemed to be owners of such Series B Preferred Stock as of the date the Corporation issues such Series B Preferred Stock in accordance with the preceding sentence.

(e) Fractional Shares. In connection with the conversion of any shares of the Convertible Preferred Stock, no fractions of shares of Common Stock shall be issued, but the Corporation shall pay a cash adjustment in respect of any fractional interest in an amount equal to the fractional interest multiplied by the Daily VWAP of the Common Stock on the last Trading Day of the relevant Observation Period rounded to the nearest whole cent.

(f) Total Shares. If more than one share of Convertible Preferred Stock is surrendered for conversion by the same holder at the same time, the consideration due upon conversion of those shares of Convertible Preferred Stock will be computed on the basis of the total number of shares of Convertible Preferred Stock so surrendered (subject to any applicable Depositary rules).

(g) Reservation of Shares; Shares to be Fully Paid; Compliance with Governmental Requirements; Listing of Common Stock. The Corporation shall:

(i) at all times reserve and keep available, free from preemptive rights, for issuance upon the conversion of shares of the Convertible Preferred Stock such number of its authorized but unissued shares of Series B Preferred Stock and such number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be sufficient to permit the conversion of all Outstanding shares of the Convertible Preferred Stock (assuming for such purposes that no conversions are Induced Conversions);

(ii) prior to the delivery of any securities that the Corporation shall be obligated to deliver upon conversion of the Convertible Preferred Stock or in respect of dividends thereon, comply in all material respects with all applicable federal and state laws and regulations; and

(iii) ensure that all shares of Series B Preferred Stock and all shares of Common Stock, in each case, delivered upon conversion of the Convertible Preferred Stock, if any, and in respect of dividends thereon, if any, will, in each case, upon delivery, be duly and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, free of all liens and charges and not subject to any preemptive rights.

10. Adjusted Conversion Rate Upon a Fundamental Change.

(a) If a Fundamental Change occurs prior to a Successful Remarketing and a holder of Convertible Preferred Stock elects to exercise its Fundamental Change Conversion Right with respect to Separate Shares of Convertible Preferred Stock in connection with such Fundamental Change, if the Stock Price for such Fundamental Change is less than the Conversion Price then in effect, any such conversion in connection with such Fundamental Change shall be settled

based on an adjusted Conversion Rate that shall be equal to (x) the Liquidation Preference per share of Convertible Preferred Stock, plus, other than in the event that the converting holder receives, upon conversion of each share of Convertible Preferred Stock, a share of Series B Preferred Stock or a share of Reference Preferred Stock, as the case may be, all accumulated but unpaid dividends to, but excluding the Fundamental Change Settlement Date (unless the Conversion Date for a share of Convertible Preferred Stock occurs after the Dividend Record Date for the payment of declared dividends and prior to the related Dividend Payment Date, in which case the adjusted Conversion Rate calculation for such share shall not include accumulated but unpaid dividends that will be paid to holders of the Convertible Preferred Stock on such Dividend Record Date), divided by (y) the average of the Closing Prices of the Common Stock for the five consecutive Trading Days ending on, and including, the second Trading Day prior to such Fundamental Change Settlement Date (or, in the case of a Fundamental Change described in clause (a) of the definition of Fundamental Change where all holders of the Common Stock receive only cash in the Fundamental Change, the cash amount paid per share of Common Stock) (the amount described in clause (y) above, the “Fundamental Change Settlement Price”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Conversion Rate exceed 45.6517 shares of Common Stock per share of Convertible Preferred Stock, subject to adjustment in the same manner as the Conversion Rate is adjusted pursuant to Section 11(a) through 11(e) and Section 11(k). A conversion of the Convertible Preferred Stock shall be deemed for these purposes to be “in connection with” such Fundamental Change (regardless of the Stock Price) if the Conversion Date occurs from, and including, the Effective Date of such Fundamental Change to, and including, the Fundamental Change Conversion Deadline.

(b) If all holders of the Common Stock receive only cash in a Reorganization Event, then notwithstanding the foregoing, for all conversions in connection with a Fundamental Change that occur after the Effective Date of such Fundamental Change, the consideration due upon conversion of each such share of Convertible Preferred Stock shall be solely cash in an amount equal to the Conversion Rate as modified pursuant to Section 10(a), multiplied by the Fundamental Change Settlement Price for such Fundamental Change.

(c) If a Fundamental Change occurs prior to a Successful Remarketing, the Corporation shall send to holders of the Convertible Preferred Stock a notice of such Fundamental Change within five Business Days after the Effective Date of such Fundamental Change (the “Fundamental Change Company Notice”). Such Fundamental Change Company Notice shall state:

(i) the events constituting the Fundamental Change;

(ii) the Effective Date of the Fundamental Change;

(iii) the Fundamental Change Conversion Deadline;

(iv) the name and address of the Paying Agent and the Conversion Agent;

(v) the Conversion Rate, or if the Stock Price is less than the Conversion Price, the formula for determination of the Conversion Rate;

(vi) the procedures that the holder of Convertible Preferred Stock must follow to exercise the Fundamental Change Conversion Right; and

(vii) the scheduled Fundamental Change Settlement Date.

- 27 -

(d) To exercise the Fundamental Change Conversion Right, a holder of the Convertible Preferred Stock must convert its Separate Shares of Convertible Preferred Stock in accordance with Section 9(a)(ii) and Section 9(b) and the last sentence of Section 10(a).

(e) The Corporation shall, to the extent applicable, comply with the listing standards of the New York Stock Exchange in connection with the issuance of Common Stock upon any exercise of the Fundamental Change Conversion Right.

(f) Nothing in this Section 10 shall prevent an adjustment to the Conversion Rate pursuant to Section 11 in respect of a Fundamental Change or any increase to the Conversion Rate pursuant to Section 12 in connection with a Successful Remarketing.

11. Conversion Rate Adjustments. The Conversion Rate shall be adjusted from time to time by the Corporation for any of the following events that occur following the Initial Issue Date:

(a) If the Corporation issues Common Stock as a dividend or distribution on Common Stock to all or substantially all holders of Common Stock, or if the Corporation effects a share split or share combination, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted based on the following formula:

CR₁ = CR₀ × OS₁ / OS₀

where:


CR₀	=	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution or the open of business on the effective date of such share split or share combination;

CR₁	=	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately at and after the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution, or the open of business on the effective date of such share split or share combination;

OS₀	=	the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution, or the open of business on the effective date of such share split or share combination; and

OS₁	=	the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after, and solely as a result of, such dividend, distribution, share split or share combination.

- 28 -

Any adjustment made pursuant to this subsection (a) shall become effective as of the open of business on (x) the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution or (y) the date on which such split or combination becomes effective, as applicable. If any dividend or distribution described in this subsection (a) is declared but not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall be readjusted to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared.

(b) If the Corporation distributes to all or substantially all holders of Common Stock any rights, warrants or options entitling them for a period of not more than 60 calendar days after the date of distribution thereof to subscribe for or purchase Common Stock, in any case at an exercise price per share of Common Stock less than the Closing Price of the Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of announcement of such distribution (other than rights issued or otherwise distributed pursuant to a shareholder rights plan, as to which the provisions set forth in Section 14 and Section 11(c)(A) shall apply), the Conversion Rate shall be increased based on the following formula:

CR₁ = CR₀ × (OS₀ + X) / (OS₀ + Y)

where:


CR₀	=	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution;

CR₁	=	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately at and after the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution;

OS₀	=	the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution;

X	=	the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to such rights, warrants or options; and

Y	=	the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the quotient of (A) the aggregate price payable to exercise all such rights, warrants or options and (B) the Closing Price of the Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of announcement for the distribution of such rights, warrants or options.

For purposes of this subsection (b), in determining whether any rights, warrants or options entitle the holders to subscribe for or purchase Common Stock at less than the Closing Price of the Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of announcement of such issuance, and in determining the aggregate exercise price payable for such Common Stock, there shall be taken into account any consideration received by the Corporation for such rights, warrants or options and any amount payable on exercise or conversion thereof, with the value of such consideration, if other than cash, to be determined by the Corporation. Any increase to the

- 29 -

Conversion Rate made under this subsection (b) shall be made successively whenever any such rights, options or warrants are distributed and shall become effective at the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution. If any right, warrant or option described in this subsection (b) is not exercised or converted prior to the expiration of the exercisability thereof, the Conversion Rate shall be readjusted to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such right, warrant or option had not been so distributed.

(c) (A) If the Corporation distributes shares of Capital Stock of the Corporation, evidences of indebtedness of the Corporation or other assets or property of the Corporation or rights, options or warrants to acquire Capital Stock of the Corporation or other securities to all or substantially all holders of Common Stock, excluding:

(i) dividends, distributions, share splits and share combinations described in subsections (a) or (b) above;

(ii) dividends or distributions paid exclusively in cash;

(iii) Spin-Offs described in subsection (c)(B);

(iv) rights issued or otherwise distributed pursuant to a shareholder rights plan, except to the extent provided in Section 14;

(v) Exchange Property issued in exchange for, or upon conversion of, the Common Stock in connection with a Reorganization Event, as to which Section 13 shall apply; and

(vi) a distribution solely pursuant to a tender offer or exchange offer for shares of Common Stock, as to which Section 11(e) shall apply,

then the Conversion Rate shall be increased based on the following formula:

CR₁ = CR₀ × SP₀ / (SP₀ – FMV)

where:


CR₀	=	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution;

CR₁	=	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately at and after the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution;

SP₀	=	the Closing Price of the Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution; and

FMV	=	the fair market value (as determined in good faith by the Corporation) of the shares of Capital Stock of the Corporation, evidences of indebtedness, assets, property, rights, options or warrants distributed with respect to each outstanding share of Common Stock, expressed as an amount per share of Common Stock, on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution.

- 30 -

An adjustment to the Conversion Rate made pursuant to this subsection (c)(A) shall become effective as of the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if “FMV” (as defined in this Section 11(c)) is equal to or greater than “SP₀” (as defined in this Section 11(c)), in lieu of the foregoing increase, each holder of Convertible Preferred Stock shall receive, in respect of each share of Convertible Preferred Stock, at the same time and upon the same terms as holders of Common Stock and without having to convert its shares of Convertible Preferred Stock, the amount and kind of Capital Stock, evidences of indebtedness, other assets of the Corporation, property of the Corporation, rights, options or warrants that such holder would have received if such holder owned a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate in effect on the Ex-Dividend Date for the distribution.

(B) However, if the Corporation distributes to all or substantially all holders of Common Stock, Capital Stock of the Corporation of any class or series, or similar equity interest, of or relating to a Subsidiary or other business unit of the Corporation, that is, or, when issued, will be, listed or admitted for trading on a U.S. national securities exchange (a “Spin-Off”), the Conversion Rate shall be increased based on the following formula:

CR₁ = CR₀ × (FMV₀ + MP₀) / MP₀

where:


CR₀	=	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately before the close of business on the 10th Trading Day immediately following, and including, the Ex-Dividend Date for the Spin-Off;

CR₁	=	the Conversion Rate in effect at and after the close of business on the 10th Trading Day immediately following (and including) the Ex-Dividend Date for the Spin-Off;

FMV₀	=	the average of the Closing Prices of the Capital Stock of the Corporation or similar equity interest distributed to holders of Common Stock applicable to one share of Common Stock over the first 10 consecutive Trading Days from and including the Ex-Dividend Date for the Spin-Off (the “Valuation Period”) (such average to be determined as if references to the Common Stock in the definitions of “Closing Price,” “Trading Day” and “Market Disruption Event” were instead references to such Capital Stock or equity interest); and

MP₀	=	the average of the Closing Prices of the Common Stock over the Valuation Period.

- 31 -

The increase to the Conversion Rate under the preceding paragraph will occur at the close of business on the last Trading Day of the Valuation Period; provided that for any Trading Day that falls within the Observation Period for any conversion of Convertible Preferred Stock and within the Valuation Period, each reference to “10” in the preceding paragraph will, solely for purposes of determining the Conversion Rate applicable to such conversion for such Trading Day, be deemed replaced with such lesser number of Trading Days as have elapsed from, and including, the Ex-Dividend Date for such Spin-Off to, and including, such Trading Day.

If any such distribution described in this subsection (c)(B) is declared but not paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall be readjusted to be the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such distribution had not been declared.

(d) If any cash dividend or distribution is made to all or substantially all holders of Common Stock, other than a regular, quarterly cash dividend that does not exceed $0.345 per share (subject to the adjustment as set forth below) (as so adjusted, the “Dividend Threshold”), the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted based on the following formula:

CR₁ = CR₀ × (SP₀ – DT) / (SP₀ – C)

where:


CR₀	=	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such cash dividend or distribution;

CR₁	=	the Conversion Rate in effect as of and after the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such cash dividend or distribution;

SP₀	=	the Closing Price of Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date for such cash dividend or distribution;

C	=	the amount in cash per share the Corporation distributes to holders of Common Stock; and

DT	=	the Dividend Threshold; provided that if the dividend or distribution is not a regular quarterly cash dividend, the Dividend Threshold shall be deemed to be zero for purposes of such dividend or distribution.

Any increase to the Conversion Rate made pursuant to this subsection (d) shall become effective as of the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution. If any such dividend or distribution is not so paid or made, the new Conversion Rate shall be readjusted to the Conversion Rate that would be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared.

- 32 -

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if “C” (as in this Section 11(d)) is equal to or greater than “SP₀” (as defined in this Section 11(d)), in lieu of the foregoing increase, each holder of Convertible Preferred Stock shall receive, for each share of Convertible Preferred Stock, at the same time and upon the same terms as holders of shares of Common Stock and without having to convert its shares of Convertible Preferred Stock, the amount of cash that such holder would have received if such holder owned a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate on the Ex-Dividend Date for such cash dividend or distribution.

The Dividend Threshold shall be subject to adjustment in a manner inversely proportional to adjustments made pursuant to the Conversion Rate pursuant to Section 11(a), Section 11(b), Section 11(c) and Section 11(e).

(e) If the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries makes a payment in respect of a tender offer or exchange offer for the Common Stock, other than an odd lot tender offer, to the extent that the cash and value of any other consideration included in the payment per share of the Common Stock exceeds the Closing Price of Common Stock on the Trading Day next succeeding the last date on which tenders or exchanges may be made pursuant to such tender or exchange offer, the Conversion Rate shall be increased based on the following formula:

CR₁ = CR₀ × (AC + (SP₁ × OS₁)) / (SP₁ × OS₀)

where:


CR₀	=	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the Trading Day immediately following the date on which such tender or exchange offer expires;

CR₁	=	the Conversion Rate in effect at and after the close of business on the Trading Day immediately following the date on which such tender or exchange offer expires;

AC	=	the aggregate value of all cash and any other consideration (as determined in good faith by the Corporation) paid or payable for the Common Stock purchased in such tender or exchange offer;

OS₀	=	the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the time such tender or exchange offer expires (prior to giving effect to the purchase or exchange of shares of Common Stock pursuant to such tender or exchange offer);

OS₁	=	the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after the time such tender or exchange offer expires (after giving effect to the purchase or exchange of shares of Common Stock pursuant to such tender or exchange offer); and

SP₁	=	the Closing Price of Common Stock on the Trading Day next succeeding the date such tender or exchange offer expires.

- 33 -

If the application of the foregoing formula would result in a decrease in the Conversion Rate, no adjustment to the Conversion Rate shall be made.

Any adjustment to the Conversion Rate made pursuant to this Section 11(e) shall become effective at the close of business on the Trading Day immediately following the date on which such tender offer or exchange offer expires. To the extent any tender or exchange offer described in this Section 11(e) is announced but not consummated (including as a result of the Corporation or one of the Corporation’s Subsidiaries being permanently prevented by applicable law from effecting any such purchase), the new Conversion Rate shall be readjusted to be the Conversion Rate that would be in effect had the adjustment been made on the basis of only the purchases or exchanges of shares of Common Stock, if any, actually made, and not rescinded, in such tender or exchange offer.

(f) The Corporation may make such increases to the Conversion Rate in addition to those required by Section 11(a) through Section 11(e) as it considers to be advisable to avoid or diminish any income tax to holders of Common Stock resulting from any dividend or distribution of Capital Stock of the Corporation (or rights to purchase Common Stock) or from any event treated as such for income tax purposes. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Corporation from time to time may increase the Conversion Rate by any amount for any period of time if the period is at least 20 Business Days and the increase is irrevocable during the period and the Corporation determines that such increase would be in its best interests. Whenever the Conversion Rate is increased pursuant to the preceding sentence, the Corporation shall send to each holder of the Convertible Preferred Stock a notice of the reduction on or prior to the date the increased Conversion Rate takes effect, and such notice shall state the increased Conversion Rate and the period during which it will be in effect.

(g) All required calculations shall be made to the nearest cent or 1/10,000th of a share, as the case may be. The Corporation shall not be required to make an adjustment to the Conversion Rate unless the adjustment would require a change of at least 1% in the Conversion Rate. However, the Corporation shall carry forward any adjustments that are less than 1% of the Conversion Rate and make such carried-forward adjustments (x) when all such carried-forward adjustments aggregate to a change of at least 1% in the Conversion Rate and (y) regardless of whether the aggregate adjustment is less than 1% (A) on the Effective Date for any Fundamental Change and (B) on each Trading Day of any Observation Period in respect of any conversion of Convertible Preferred Stock.

(h) No adjustment to the Conversion Rate shall be made on account of the events referred to in Section 11(a) through 11(e) (except in the case of a share split, share combination, tender offer or exchange offer) if holders of the Convertible Preferred Stock, as a result of holding the Convertible Preferred Stock and without conversion thereof, are entitled to participate at the same time as the holders of Common Stock participate in any such event as if such holders of the Convertible Preferred Stock held a number shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate, multiplied by the number of shares of Convertible Preferred Stock held by such holders.

- 34 -

(i) Whenever the Conversion Rate is adjusted as herein provided, the Corporation shall promptly file with the Conversion Agent an Officer’s certificate setting forth the Conversion Rate after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment. Unless and until a responsible officer of the Conversion Agent shall have received such Officer’s certificate, the Conversion Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any adjustment of the Conversion Rate and shall be entitled to conclusively assume that the last Conversion Rate of which it has knowledge is still in effect. Promptly after delivery of such Officer’s certificate, the Corporation shall prepare a notice of such adjustment of the Conversion Rate setting forth the adjusted Conversion Rate and the date on which each adjustment becomes effective and shall send such notice of such adjustment of the Conversion Rate to each holder of Convertible Preferred Stock within twenty (20) days after execution thereof. Failure to deliver such notice shall not affect the legality or validity of any such adjustment.

(j) For purposes of this Section 11, the number of shares of Common Stock at any time outstanding shall not include shares held in the treasury of the Corporation, unless such treasury shares participate in any distribution or dividend that requires an adjustment pursuant to this Section 11, but shall include shares issuable in respect of scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractional shares of Common Stock.

(k) Whenever any provision of this Section 11 requires the Corporation to calculate the Closing Prices, the Daily VWAPs, the Daily Conversion Values or the Daily Settlement Amounts over a span of multiple days (including any Observation Period, the period for determining any Five-Day Average Price, the period for determining any Stock Price and the period for determining any Fundamental Change Settlement Price (if applicable)), the Corporation shall make appropriate adjustments, if any, to each to account for any adjustment to the Conversion Rate that becomes effective, or any event requiring an adjustment to the Conversion Rate where the Ex-Dividend Date of the event occurs, at any time during the period when the Closing Prices, the Daily VWAPs, the Daily Conversion Values or the Daily Settlement Amounts are to be calculated.

(l) The Conversion Rate shall not be adjusted except as specifically set forth in this Statement with Respect to Shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Conversion Rate shall not be adjusted:

(i) upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock pursuant to any present or future plan providing for the reinvestment of dividends or interest payable on securities of the Corporation and the investment of additional optional amounts in shares of Common Stock under any plan;

(ii) upon the issuance of options, restricted stock or other awards in connection with any employment contract, executive compensation plan, benefit plan or other similar arrangement with or for the benefit of any one or more employees, officers, directors, consultants or independent contractors or the exercise of such options or other awards;

(iii) upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock pursuant to any option, warrant, right, or exercisable, exchangeable or convertible security outstanding as of the Initial Issue Date except as specifically set forth in this Statement with Respect to Shares;

- 35 -

(iv) solely for a change in the par value of the Common Stock; and

(v) for accumulated but unpaid dividends, if any, except as specifically set forth in this Statement with Respect to Shares.

(m) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Statement with Respect to Shares, if:

(i) a Conversion Rate adjustment for any dividend or distribution becomes effective on any Ex-Dividend Date pursuant to Section 11(a) through Section 11(d), inclusive;

(ii) a share of Convertible Preferred Stock is to be converted;

(iii) any Trading Day in the Observation Period for such conversion occurs on or after such Ex-Dividend Date and on or before the related Record Date;

(iv) the consideration due in respect of such Trading Day includes any whole or fractional shares of Common Stock based on a Conversion Rate that is adjusted for such dividend or distribution; and

(v) such shares of Common Stock would be entitled to participate in such dividend or distribution,

then the Conversion Rate adjustment relating to such Ex-Dividend Date shall be made for such conversion in respect of such Trading Day, but the shares of Common Stock issuable with respect to such Trading Day based on such adjusted Conversion Rate shall not be entitled to participate in such dividend or distribution.

(n) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Statement with Respect to Shares, if:

(i) a share of Convertible Preferred Stock is to be converted;

(ii) the Record Date for any event that requires an adjustment to the Conversion Rate pursuant to Section 11(a) through Section 11(d), inclusive, has occurred on or before any Trading Day in the Observation Period for such conversion, but an adjustment to the Conversion Rate for such event has not yet become effective as of such Trading Day;

(iii) the consideration due in respect of such Trading Day includes any whole or fractional shares of Common Stock; and

(iv) such shares of Common Stock are not entitled to participate in such event (because they were not held on the related Record Date or otherwise),

- 36 -

then, solely for purposes of such conversion, the Corporation shall, without duplication, give effect to such adjustment on such Trading Day. In such case, if the date the Corporation is otherwise required to deliver the consideration due upon such conversion is before the first date on which the amount of such adjustment can be determined, then the Corporation shall delay the settlement of such conversion until the second Business Day after such first date.

12. Remarketing.

(a) Remarketing. Holders of Separate Shares of Convertible Preferred Stock shall have the rights in respect of any Remarketing as set forth in the Purchase Contract and Pledge Agreement.

(b) Increased Rates and/or Modified Redemption Date May Apply.

(i) In connection with each Remarketing, the Board of Directors shall determine any Increased Rate and/or Modified Redemption Date after consultation with the Remarketing Agent.

(ii) In the event of a Successful Remarketing, (A) the Dividend Rate may be increased, (B) if the Closing Price on the pricing date for a Successful Remarketing is less than or equal to the Reference Price, the Conversion Rate may be increased to the Increased Conversion Rate and/or (C) the First Redemption Date may be changed to a later date that is on or prior to August 29, 2025 (the “Modified Redemption Date”), in each case, but subject, in the case of clause (A), to the second-to-last sentence of this Section 12(b)(ii), on the Remarketing Settlement Date, as determined by the Board of Directors after consultation with the Remarketing Agent(s), and the Corporation shall, (I) before the open of business on the Business Day following the pricing date of the Successful Remarketing, (x) cause a notice of the Successful Remarketing to be published (by making a timely release to any appropriate news agency, including, without limitation, Bloomberg Business News and the Dow Jones News Service), and (y) issue a press release setting forth the Increased Rate(s) and Modified Redemption Date established for the Convertible Preferred Stock during the Remarketing; and (II) as soon as reasonably practicable, notify each of the Transfer Agent and the Conversion Agent by an Officer’s certificate delivered to the Transfer Agent and the Conversion Agent. Neither the Dividend Rate nor the Conversion Rate can be decreased in connection with a Remarketing, and the First Redemption Date cannot be made to be earlier than September 3, 2024 or later than August 29, 2025 in connection with a Remarketing. Any modified terms of the Convertible Preferred Stock in connection with a Remarketing shall apply to every share of Convertible Preferred Stock, whether or not remarketed. Dividends will continue to accumulate on the Convertible Preferred Stock and will continue to be payable on the Convertible Preferred Stock quarterly at the then-applicable Dividend Rate, when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors. If a Termination Event has occurred, there are any accumulated but unpaid dividends on the Convertible Preferred Stock for prior Dividend Periods, or the Corporation has not declared a dividend payable in respect of the Dividend Payment Date occurring on March 1, 2024, the Corporation shall not conduct an Optional Remarketing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if (I) the Dividend Rate is increased in connection with any Successful Remarketing; (II) as of the

- 37 -

pricing date of such Successful Remarketing, the Corporation has declared a dividend on the Convertible Preferred Stock or the Series B Preferred Stock in respect of the Dividend Payment Date occurring on the Purchase Contract Settlement Date; and (III) the Remarketing Settlement Date occurs before the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, then such increase to the Dividend Rate shall instead become effective from, and including, the Purchase Contract Settlement Date. For the avoidance of doubt, any increase in the Dividend Rate in connection with a Successful Remarketing shall not affect the rate at which dividends have accumulated on the Convertible Preferred Stock before the date as of which such increase becomes effective as provided in this Section 12(b)(ii), and, accordingly, if such date as of which such increase becomes effective occurs during the middle of a Dividend Period, then any such increase to the Dividend Rate shall apply for only a portion of such Dividend Period.

(iii) In the event of an Unsuccessful Final Remarketing or an Unsuccessful Optional Remarketing, or if no Applicable Ownership Interest in Convertible Preferred Stock are included in Corporate Units and none of the holders of the Separate Shares of Convertible Preferred Stock elect to have their shares of Convertible Preferred Stock remarketed in any Remarketing, the Dividend Rate, the Conversion Rate and the First Redemption Date will not be modified.

(iv) If there is an Unsuccessful Remarketing, the Corporation shall cause a notice of the Unsuccessful Remarketing to be published before the open of business on the Business Day following the Applicable Remarketing Period. This notice shall be published by making a timely release to any appropriate news agency, including, without limitation, Bloomberg Business News and the Dow Jones News Service.

13. Effect of Recapitalizations, Reclassifications and Changes of Common Stock; Series B Reorganization Events.

(a) Each of the following events constitutes a “Reorganization Event”:

(i) any recapitalization, reclassification or change of the Common Stock (other than changes resulting from a subdivision or combination or a change only in par value);

(ii) any consolidation, merger or combination involving the Corporation;

(iii) any sale, lease or other transfer to another Person of the consolidated assets of the Corporation and its Subsidiaries substantially as an entirety;

(iv) any statutory exchange of the Common Stock; or

(v) any similar event,

in each case as a result of which the Common Stock would be converted into, or exchanged for, or represent solely the right to receive, stock, other securities, other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) (“Exchange Property”).

- 38 -

(b) At and after the effective time of a Reorganization Event, the consideration due upon conversion of any Convertible Preferred Stock, and the consideration in which dividends on the Convertible Preferred Stock is payable, shall be determined in the same manner as if each reference to any number of shares of Common Stock in this Statement with Respect to Shares were instead a reference to the same number of Exchange Property Units of such Reorganization Event, subject to Section 13(d). However, at and after the effective time of the Reorganization Event, (x) any amount payable or deliverable, as the case may be, in cash or Series B Preferred Stock, as applicable, upon conversion as set forth in Section 9(d) shall continue to be payable in cash or deliverable in Series B Preferred Stock, as applicable, except as provided in Section 13(d) or 13(i), and (y) the Daily VWAP and Fundamental Change Settlement Price shall be calculated based on the value of such Exchange Property Unit.

(c) In the event all holders of Common Stock (other than any Constituent Person or Affiliate thereof) have the opportunity to elect the form of consideration to be received in a Reorganization Event, the Exchange Property Unit that holders of the Convertible Preferred Stock are entitled to receive shall be deemed to be the weighted average, per share of Common Stock, of the types and amounts of consideration received by the holders of Common Stock. The Corporation shall notify holders of the weighted average as soon as reasonably practicable after such determination is made.

(d) If the holders in a Reorganization Event receive only cash in such Reorganization Event, then notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, for all conversions that occur after the effective date of such Reorganization Event (i) the consideration due upon conversion of each share of Convertible Preferred Stock shall be solely cash in an amount equal to the Conversion Rate (as may be increased pursuant to Section 10) in effect on the Conversion Date, multiplied by the price paid per share of Common Stock in such Reorganization Event and (ii) the Corporation shall satisfy its conversion obligation by paying cash to converting holders on the second Scheduled Trading Day immediately following the Conversion Date.

(e) In connection with any Reorganization Event, the Corporation shall amend this Statement with Respect to Shares (i) to provide for anti-dilution and other adjustments that are as nearly equivalent as possible to the adjustments set forth in Section 11 above (it being understood that no such adjustments shall be required with respect to any portion of the Exchange Property that does not consist of securities), (ii) in the case of any transaction that results in the securities of any entity other than the Corporation (or the Corporation’s successor in such transaction) being included as Exchange Property, (x) by replacing references to the “Corporation” (and similar references) in the definitions of “Fundamental Change” with references to that other entity and (y) by causing the Dividend Blocker Provisions to apply to that other entity, with its common equity securities being deemed stock ranking junior to the Convertible Preferred Stock for this purpose and (iii) to include such additional provisions to protect the interests of the holders of Convertible Preferred Stock as the Board of Directors reasonably considers necessary by reason of the foregoing. The Corporation shall not become party to any Reorganization Event unless its terms are consistent with the foregoing.

(f) In connection with any adjustment to the Conversion Rate pursuant to this Section 13, the Corporation shall also adjust the Dividend Threshold based on the number of shares of Common Stock comprising the Exchange Property and (if applicable) the value of any non-stock consideration comprising the Exchange Property. If the Exchange Property is composed solely of non-stock consideration, the Dividend Threshold shall be zero.

- 39 -

(g) The Corporation shall cause notice of the application of this Section 13 to be delivered to each holder of the Convertible Preferred Stock within twenty (20) days after the occurrence of any Reorganization Event and shall publish such information on its website. Failure to deliver such notice shall not affect the legality or validity of any conversion right pursuant to this Section 13.

(h) The above provisions of this Section 13 shall similarly apply to successive Reorganization Events.

(i) If a Series B Preferred Stock Reorganization Event occurs, then, from and after the effective time of such Series B Preferred Stock Reorganization Event, the consideration due upon conversion of any Convertible Preferred Stock shall be determined in the same manner as if each reference to any number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock in Section 9, Section 10 or Section 13(a) through Section 13(h) (or in any related provisions or definitions) were instead a reference to a number of shares or other units of the applicable Reference Preferred Stock having an equivalent liquidation preference. If an event (including, for the avoidance of doubt, a transaction pursuant to which, following a vote of the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock, the Series B Preferred Stock is converted into, exchanged for, or represents solely the right to receive, other securities or property that does not constitute Reference Preferred Stock) analogous to a Reorganization Event occurs with respect to the Series B Preferred Stock and such Reorganization Event is not also a Series B Preferred Stock Reorganization Event with respect to which there is any Reference Preferred Stock, then, from and after the effective time of such analogous Reorganization Event, the consideration due upon conversion of any Convertible Preferred Stock shall be determined in the same manner as if each reference to any number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock in Section 9, Section 10 or Section 13(a) through Section 13(h) (or in any related provisions or definitions) were instead a reference to the kind and amount of consideration that is receivable in such Reorganization Event for an equivalent number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock (without giving effect to any arrangement in such analogous Reorganization Event not to issue or deliver a fractional portion of any security or other property).

14. Rights Issued in Respect of Common Stock Issued Upon Conversion. If the Corporation has in effect a rights plan while any shares of Convertible Preferred Stock remain outstanding, holders of Convertible Preferred Stock shall receive, upon a conversion of Convertible Preferred Stock, to the extent holders of Convertible Preferred Stock receive shares of Common Stock in settlement of such conversion, rights under the Corporation’s shareholder rights agreement unless, prior to such conversion, the rights have expired, terminated or been redeemed or unless the rights have separated from the Common Stock. If the rights provided for in the shareholder rights plan have separated from the Common Stock in accordance with the provisions of the applicable shareholder rights agreement so that holders of Convertible Preferred Stock would not be entitled to receive any rights in respect of the Common Stock, if any, delivered upon conversion of Convertible Preferred Stock, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted at the time of separation as if the Corporation had distributed to all holders of the Common Stock, Capital Stock of the Corporation (other than Common Stock), evidences of indebtedness of the Corporation or other assets, property, rights, options or warrants pursuant to Section 11(c)(A) above, subject to readjustment upon the subsequent expiration, termination or redemption of the rights.

(iii) to consummate a binding share exchange or reclassification involving the shares of Convertible Preferred Stock or a merger or consolidation of the Corporation with another entity, unless either (A) the shares of Convertible Preferred Stock remain outstanding and have rights, preferences, privileges and voting powers, taken as a whole, that are not materially less favorable to the holders thereof than the rights, preferences, privileges and voting powers of the Convertible Preferred Stock immediately prior to such consummation, taken as a whole, or (B) in the case of any such merger or consolidation with respect to which the Corporation is not the surviving or resulting entity, the shares of Convertible Preferred Stock are converted into, exchanged for or represent the right to receive, preference securities of the surviving or resulting entity or its ultimate parent, such surviving or resulting entity or ultimate parent is organized under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia and treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and such preference securities have rights, preferences, privileges and voting powers, taken as a whole, that are not material less favorable to the holders thereof than the rights, preferences, privileges and voting powers of the Convertible Preferred Stock immediately prior to such consummation, taken as a whole;

- 41 -

provided that (x) a binding share exchange, reclassification, merger or consolidation that satisfies clause (iii) above shall not require the affirmative vote or consent of any holders of the Convertible Preferred Stock pursuant to clause (ii) above; (y) the creation and issuance, or an increase in the authorized or issued amount, whether pursuant to pre-emptive or similar rights or otherwise, of any series of Preferred Stock (including the Convertible Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock) not constituting Senior Stock shall not be deemed to adversely affect the rights, preferences, privileges or voting powers of the Convertible Preferred Stock, and shall not require the affirmative vote or consent of the holders of the Convertible Preferred Stock; and (z) the application of the provisions of Section 13, including the execution and delivery of any supplemental instruments solely to give effect to such provisions, shall not, in itself, be deemed to adversely affect the rights, preferences, privileges or voting powers of the Convertible Preferred Stock and shall not require the affirmative vote or consent of any holders of the Convertible Preferred Stock.

If any amendment, alteration, repeal, share exchange, reclassification, merger or consolidation specified above would adversely affect one or more but not all series of Parity Stock (including the Convertible Preferred Stock and/or the Series B Preferred Stock for this purpose), then only the one or more series of Parity Stock adversely affected and entitled to vote, rather than all series of Parity Stock, shall vote as a class.

(c) Without the consent of the holders of the Convertible Preferred Stock, the Corporation may amend, alter, supplement, or repeal any terms of the Convertible Preferred Stock or this Statement with Respect to Shares for the following purposes:

(i) to cure any ambiguity, defect, inconsistency or mistake, or to correct or supplement any provision contained in this Statement with Respect to Shares establishing the terms of the Convertible Preferred Stock that may be defective or inconsistent with any other provision contained in this Statement with Respect to Shares;

(ii) so long as such action does not adversely affect the special rights, preferences, privileges or voting powers of the Convertible Preferred Stock, and limitations and restrictions thereof, to make such other provisions in regard to matters or questions relating to the Convertible Preferred Stock that is not inconsistent with the provisions of this Statement with Respect to Shares establishing the terms of the Convertible Preferred Stock;

Holders of Convertible Preferred Stock shall not be entitled to vote with respect to (A) any increase in the number of the authorized shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock, (B) any increase in the number of authorized shares of Convertible Preferred Stock, or (C) the creation, issuance or increase in the number of authorized shares of any class of Capital Stock not constituting Senior Stock, except as set forth above. Holders of Convertible Preferred Stock will not have any voting rights with respect to, and the consent of the holders of any Convertible Preferred Stock is not required for, the taking of any corporate action, including any merger or consolidation involving the Corporation or a sale of all or substantially all of the consolidated assets of the Corporation, regardless of the effect that such merger, consolidation or sale may have upon the powers, preferences, voting power or other rights or privileges of Convertible Preferred Stock, except as set forth above. No holder of Common Stock or any other class or series of stock shall be entitled to vote with respect to any changes to the terms of the Convertible Preferred Stock or the adoption of any Statement with Respect to Shares with respect thereto in connection with a Successful Remarketing as set forth in Section 12.

In addition, the voting power as provided above shall not apply, if, at or prior to the time when the act with respect to which the vote would otherwise be required would occur, the Corporation has redeemed upon proper procedures all outstanding shares of the Convertible Preferred Stock.

(d) If at any time dividends on any shares of Convertible Preferred Stock have not been declared and paid in full for six or more Dividend Periods, whether or not consecutive (a “Preferred Dividend Default”), then the holders of shares of Convertible Preferred Stock (voting together as a class with the holders of all other classes or series of Parity Stock upon which equivalent voting rights have been conferred and are exercisable (and with voting rights allocated pro rata based on the Liquidation Preference of the Convertible Preferred Stock and each such other class or series of Preferred Stock)) will be entitled to vote for the election of two additional directors of the Corporation (each, a “Convertible Preferred Stock Director”) until all dividends accumulated on the Convertible Preferred Stock and all other series of Parity Stock upon which equivalent voting rights have been conferred and are exercisable have been fully paid or declared and a sum sufficient for such payment is set aside for payment. In such a case, the number of directors serving on the Corporation’s board of directors shall be increased by two. As a condition to the election of any such Convertible Preferred Stock Directors, such election must not cause the Corporation to violate the corporate governance requirements of the New York Stock Exchange (or any other exchange or automated quotation system on which securities of the Corporation may be listed or quoted) that requires listed or quoted companies to have a majority of independent directors. In addition, the Corporation’s board of directors shall at no time include more than two directors, in total, appointed pursuant to this Section 15(d),

- 43 -

Section 11(d) of the Statement with Respect to Shares for the Series B Preferred Stock and the Statement with Respect to Shares for any other classes or series of Parity Stock upon which equivalent voting rights have been conferred and are exercisable. The Convertible Preferred Stock Directors shall be elected by a plurality of the votes cast in the election to serve until the next annual meeting, and each Convertible Preferred Stock Director will serve until his or her successor is duly elected and qualified or until that Convertible Preferred Stock Director’s right to hold the office terminates, whichever occurs earlier. Subject to the timing and notice requirements of the Corporation’s amended and restated by-laws as in effect on the date of the Prospectus Supplement, the election will take place at:

(i) a special meeting called by holders of at least 10% of the outstanding shares of Convertible Preferred Stock together with any other class or series of Parity Stock upon which equivalent voting rights have been conferred and are exercisable, if this request is received more than 90 calendar days before the date fixed for the Corporation’s next annual or special meeting of shareholders or, if the Corporation receives the request for a special meeting within 90 calendar days before the date fixed for the Corporation’s next annual or special meeting of shareholders, at the Corporation’s annual or special meeting of shareholders; and

(ii) each subsequent annual meeting (or special meeting held in its place) until all accumulated but unpaid dividends on the Convertible Preferred Stock and on all other classes or series of Parity Stock upon which equivalent voting rights have been conferred and are exercisable have been paid in full for all past Dividend Periods (with respect to the Convertible Preferred Stock) and for all past, completed dividend periods (with respect to such Parity Stock) and the dividend for the then current Dividend Period (with respect to the Convertible Preferred Stock) and for the then current dividend period (with respect to such Parity Stock) has been fully paid or declared and a sum sufficient for the payment thereof set aside for payment.

If and when all accumulated but unpaid dividends on the Convertible Preferred Stock and all other classes or series of Parity Stock upon which equivalent voting rights have been conferred and are exercisable have been paid in full or a sum sufficient for such payment in full is set aside for payment, holders of shares of Convertible Preferred Stock will be divested of the voting rights set forth above (subject to re-vesting in the event of any subsequent Preferred Dividend Defaults) and the term of office of such Convertible Preferred Stock Directors so elected will terminate and the size of the Corporation’s board of directors will be reduced accordingly. Each Convertible Preferred Stock Director will be entitled to one vote on any matter.

16. Transfer Agent and Registrar. The duly appointed transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”) and Registrar (the “Registrar”) for the Convertible Preferred Stock shall be Computershare Inc.

18. Form.

(a) Shares of the Convertible Preferred Stock shall be issued in fully registered, certificated form and may be issued in the form of one or more permanent global shares of Convertible Preferred Stock registered in the name of the Depositary or its nominee (each, a “Global Preferred Share”). Convertible Preferred Stock represented by the Global Preferred Shares will be exchangeable for other certificates evidencing shares of Convertible Preferred Stock only if the Depositary (x) has notified the Corporation that it is unwilling or unable to continue as depository for the Global Preferred Shares or (y) has ceased to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act and, in either case, a successor depository is not appointed by the Corporation within 90 days after such notice or cessation. In any such case, such new certificates evidencing shares of Convertible Preferred Stock shall be registered in the name or names of the Person or Person specified by the Depositary in a written instrument to the Registrar. Except as provided above, owners of beneficial interest in a Global Preferred Share will not be entitled to receive certificates evidencing shares of Convertible Preferred Stock. Unless and until a Global Preferred Share is exchanged for other certificates evidencing shares of Convertible Preferred Stock, such Global Preferred Share may be transferred, in whole but not in part, and any payments on the Convertible Preferred Stock shall be made, only to the Depositary or a nominee of the Depositary, or to a successor Depositary selected or approved by the Corporation or to a nominee of such successor Depositary.

(b) To the extent permitted by applicable procedures of the Depositary, certificates evidencing shares of the Convertible Preferred Stock may be issued to represent fractional shares with a liquidation preference of $100 and integral multiples of $100 in excess thereof.

(c) The Global Preferred Shares may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange rules, agreements to which the Corporation is subject, if any, or usage (provided that any such notation, legend or endorsement is in a form acceptable to the Corporation). The Global Preferred Shares shall be deposited with the Registrar, at its New York office, as custodian for the Depositary, and registered in the name of the Depositary or a nominee of the Depositary, duly executed by the Corporation and countersigned and registered by the Registrar as hereinafter provided. The aggregate number of shares represented by the Global Preferred Shares, or any one Global Preferred Share, may from time to time be increased or decreased by adjustments made on the records of the Registrar and the Depositary or its nominee as hereinafter provided. At such time as all interests in a Global Preferred Share have been converted, canceled, redeemed, repurchased or transferred, such Global Preferred Share shall be, upon receipt thereof, canceled by the Corporation in accordance with standing procedures and existing instructions between the Depositary and the Corporation.

This Section 18 shall apply only to a Global Preferred Share deposited with or on behalf of the Depositary. To issue any Global Preferred Shares, the Corporation shall execute and the Registrar shall, in accordance with this Section 18, countersign and deliver one or more Global Preferred Shares in accordance with the terms hereof that (i) shall be registered in the name of Cede & Co. or other nominee of the Depositary and (ii) shall be delivered by the Registrar to Cede & Co. or pursuant to instructions received from Cede & Co. or held by the Registrar as

- 45 -

custodian for the Depositary pursuant to an agreement between the Depositary and the Registrar. Members of, or participants in, the Depositary (“Agent Members”) shall have no rights under this Statement with Respect to Shares, with respect to any Global Preferred Share held on their behalf by the Depositary or by the Registrar as the custodian of the Depositary, or under such Global Preferred Share, and the Depositary may be treated by the Corporation, the Registrar, the Paying Agent, the Conversion Agent and any agent of any of the foregoing as the absolute owner of such Global Preferred Share for all purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Corporation, the Registrar or any agent of the Corporation or the Registrar from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by the registered holder of the Convertible Preferred Stock or impair, as between the Depositary and its Agent Members, the operation of customary practices of the Depositary governing the exercise of the rights of a holder of a beneficial interest in any Global Preferred Share.

An Officer shall sign the certificates evidencing the Convertible Preferred Stock for the Corporation, in accordance with the Corporation’s by-laws and applicable law, by manual, electronic or facsimile signature. If an Officer whose signature is on a share certificate no longer holds that office at the time the Transfer Agent authenticates the certificate, such certificate shall be valid nevertheless. A certificate evidencing shares of Convertible Preferred Stock shall not be valid until an authorized signatory of the Transfer Agent manually or electronically countersigns such certificate. The signature shall be conclusive evidence that such certificate has been authenticated under this Statement with Respect to Shares. Each share certificate shall be dated the date of its authentication.

19. Reissuance and Retirement. Shares of Convertible Preferred Stock that have been repurchased, redeemed or converted in accordance herewith or automatically delivered to the Corporation following an Unsuccessful Final Remarketing pursuant to the Purchase Contract and Pledge Agreement, in each case, shall be retired and shall not be reissued as shares of Convertible Preferred Stock hereunder, but the number of shares so retired shall revert to the status of authorized but unissued shares of Preferred Stock of the Corporation.

20. Paying Agent and Conversion Agent.

(a) The Corporation shall maintain in the Borough of Manhattan, City of New York, State of New York (i) an office or agency where Convertible Preferred Stock may be presented for payment (the “Paying Agent”) and (ii) an office or agency where Convertible Preferred Stock may be presented for conversion (the “Conversion Agent”).

The Corporation may appoint the Registrar, the Paying Agent and the Conversion Agent and may appoint one or more additional paying agents and one or more additional conversion agents in such other locations as it shall determine. The term “Paying Agent” includes any additional paying agent and the term “Conversion Agent” includes any additional conversion agent. The Corporation may change any Paying Agent or Conversion Agent without prior notice to any holder, but with prior written notice to the Paying Agent and the Conversion Agent thereof. The Corporation shall notify the Registrar of the name and address of any Paying Agent or Conversion Agent appointed by the Corporation. If the Corporation fails to appoint or maintain another entity as Paying Agent or Conversion Agent, the Registrar shall act as such. The Corporation or any of its Affiliates may act as Paying Agent, Registrar or Conversion Agent. Initially, U.S. Bank National Association shall be the Paying Agent and Conversion Agent.

Any notice or communication delivered or to be delivered to a holder of Convertible Preferred Stock in the form of physical certificates shall be mailed to it by first class mail, postage prepaid, at its address as it appears on the Corporation’s stock register and shall be sufficiently given to it if so mailed within the time prescribed. Any notice or communication delivered or to be delivered to a holder of a Global Preferred Share shall be delivered in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary and shall be deemed to have been sufficiently given in writing to it if so delivered within the time prescribed.

24. Withholding. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Corporation or any agent of the Corporation shall have the right to deduct and withhold from any payment or distribution (or deemed distribution) made with respect to any share of Convertible Preferred Stock (or the delivery of shares of Common Stock, Series B Preferred Stock and/or cash upon conversion of Convertible Preferred Stock) such amounts as are required to be deducted or withheld with respect to the making of such payment or distribution (or delivery) under applicable tax law without liability therefor. To the extent that any amounts are so deducted or withheld, such deducted or withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes as having been paid (or delivered) to the applicable holder of Convertible Preferred Stock. In the event the Corporation or any agent of the Corporation previously remitted any amounts to a governmental entity on account of taxes required to be deducted or withheld in respect of any payment or

distribution (or deemed distribution) or delivery with respect to any share of Convertible Preferred Stock with respect to an applicable holder of Convertible Preferred Stock, the Corporation and any such agent shall be entitled to offset any such amounts against any amounts otherwise payable or deliverable to the applicable holder hereunder or under any other instrument or agreement.
