Initial Purchasers but shall not be later than five full business days after written notice of election to purchase Optional Notes is given. Delivery of the
Optional Notes shall be made to the Initial Purchasers against payment of the purchase price by the Initial Purchasers. Payment for the Optional Notes shall be
effected either by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account with a bank in The City of New York, the account number and the ABA number

manner of payment as may be agreed by the Company and the Initial Purchasers.
(c) The Company will deliver against payment of the purchase price the Notes in the form of one or more permanent global certificates (the "Global
Notes"), registered in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee for The Depository Trust Company ("DTC"). Beneficial interests in the Notes will be shown on,

The Global Notes will be made available, at the request of the Initial Purchasers, for checking at least 24 hours prior to such Delivery Date.

in order that the Offering Memorandum will not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the
statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, to promptly notify the Initial Purchasers and prepare,
subject to the first sentence of this Section 3(a), such amendment or supplement as may be necessary to correct such untrue statement or omission.
(b) To furnish to the Initial Purchasers and to Cleary, Gottlieb, Steen & Hamilton, counsel to the Initial Purchasers, copies of the Preliminary Offering
Memorandum and the Offering Memorandum (and all amendments and supplements thereto), in each case as soon as available and in such quantities as the
Initial Purchasers reasonably requests for internal use and for distribution to prospective purchasers. The Company will pay the expenses of printing and
distributing to the Initial Purchasers all such documents.
(c) To promptly take such action as the Initial Purchasers may reasonably request from time to time, to qualify the Notes for offering and sale under the
securities laws of such jurisdictions as the Initial Purchasers may request and to comply with such laws so as to permit the continuance of sales and dealings
therein in such jurisdictions in the United States for as long as may be necessary to complete the resale of the Notes; provided, however, that in connection
therewith, the Company shall not be required to qualify to do business as a foreign corporation or otherwise subject itself to service of process or taxation in
any jurisdiction in which it is not otherwise so qualified or subject.

Conversion Shares), or sell or grant options, rights or warrants with respect to any shares of Common Stock without the prior written consent of the
Representatives. In addition, if the Company files a registration statement (other than a Registration Statement) for the resale of shares of its Common Stock
during the 90 days from the date of the Offering Memorandum, the Company agrees that it will not request that the Commission declare such registration
statement effective during that period unless the Company is contractually obligated to do so.

have been acquired by any of them.
(g) Not to, and not to permit any of its affiliates or any person acting on its behalf to, directly or indirectly, make offers or sales of any security, or solicit
offers to buy any security, under circumstances that would require the registration of the Notes or Conversion Shares under the Act.
(h) Not to, and not to permit any of its affiliates or any person acting on its behalf (other than the Initial Purchasers) to, engage in any form of general
solicitation or general advertising (within the meaning of Regulation D) in connection with any offer or sale of the Notes in the United States.
(i) To cause each of the Notes to bear, to the extent applicable, the legend contained in "Notice to Investors" in the Offering Memorandum for the time
period and upon the other terms stated therein, except after the Notes are resold pursuant to a registration statement effective under the Act.
(j) Between the date hereof and the Delivery Date, not to do or authorize any act or thing that would result in an adjustment of the Conversion Price (as
defined in the Indenture).
