Mandatory Conversion:    As described in the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement, at any time on or after June 6, 2018, the Issuer may give notice of its election to cause all outstanding shares of the convertible preferred stock to be automatically converted into shares of its common stock, if (among other conditions specified in the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement) the “closing sale price” (as defined in the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement) of the Issuer’s common stock equals or exceeds 150% of the conversion price then in effect for at least 20 “trading days” (as defined in the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement) (whether or not consecutive) in a period of 30 consecutive trading days, including the last trading day of such 30 trading day period, ending on, and including, the trading day immediately preceding the business day on which the Issuer issues a press release announcing the mandatory conversion of the convertible preferred stock, in which case each holder will receive, for each share of convertible preferred stock being converted, a number of shares of the Issuer’s common stock equal to the conversion rate.


Make-Whole Premium Upon a Fundamental Change:   

If the Issuer undergoes a “fundamental change” (as defined in the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement) and a holder converts its convertible preferred stock at any time during the period beginning at the open of business on the trading day immediately following the effective date of such fundamental change and ending at the close of business on the 30th trading day immediately following such effective date, the holder will receive, for each share of convertible preferred stock surrendered for conversion, the greater of:

 

•        a number of shares of the Issuer’s common stock equal to the sum of (i) the conversion rate and (ii) the “make-whole premium,” if any, as calculated and described below and under “Description of convertible preferred stock— Determination of the make-whole premium” in the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement; and

 

•        a number of shares of the Issuer’s common stock equal to the conversion rate which will be increased to equal (i) the sum of the $1,000 liquidation preference plus all accumulated and unpaid dividends to, but excluding, the settlement date (as defined in the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement) for such conversion, divided by (ii) the average of the closing sale prices of the Issuer’s common stock for the five consecutive trading days ending on the third business day prior to such settlement date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the conversion rate as adjusted as described in this bullet will not exceed 292.3977 shares of common stock per share of convertible preferred stock (subject to adjustment in the same manner as the conversion rate as described in the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement), which is equal to the $1,000 liquidation preference, divided by 66 2/3% of the closing sale price of the Issuer’s common stock on June 12, 2013.

 

See “Description of convertible preferred stock—Special rights upon a fundamental change” and “Description of convertible preferred stock—Determination of the make-whole premium” in the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement.

Determination of the Make-Whole Premium:    The following table sets forth the number of additional shares of the Issuer’s common stock per share of convertible preferred stock that is converted following the effective date of a fundamental change and prior to the “special rights end date” (as defined in the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement) as described in the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement, based on the “effective date” and the “stock price” (each as defined in the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement) paid (or deemed to be paid) per share of the Issuer’s common stock in such fundamental change:

(1) The stock prices set forth in the table above will be adjusted as of any date on which the conversion rate is adjusted. The adjusted stock prices will be equal to the stock prices immediately prior to such adjustment, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the conversion rate immediately prior to the adjustment giving rise to the stock price adjustment and the denominator of which is the conversion rate as so adjusted. The number of additional shares in the table above will be adjusted in the same manner and at the same time as the conversion rate as set forth under “Description of convertible preferred stock—Conversion rate adjustments” in the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement.

The exact stock price and effective date may not be set forth on the table, in which case:

 

 

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


 

if the stock price is in excess of $25.00 per share (subject to adjustment in the same manner as the stock prices), no additional shares will be added to the conversion rate; and

 

 

if the stock price is less than $5.13 per share (subject to adjustment in the same manner as the stock prices), no additional shares will be added to the conversion rate.
