Subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the Holder hereof has the right, at its option, at any time following the date of issuance of the Notes and prior to the close of business on the Business Day next preceding December 1, 2007, to convert the Principal hereof or any portion of such Principal which is $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof, into that number of fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock, as said shares shall be constituted at the date of conversion, obtained by dividing the Principal of this Note or portion thereof to be converted by the conversion price of $7.37 (the "Conversion Price") as adjusted from time to time as provided in the Indenture, upon surrender of this Note, together with a Conversion Notice as provided in the Indenture, to the Company at the office or agency of the Company maintained for that purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, or at the option of such Holder, the Corporate Trust Office, and, unless the shares issuable on conversion are to be issued in the same name as this Note, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by instruments of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company duly executed by, the Holder or by his duly authorized attorney. No adjustment in respect of interest or dividends will be made upon any conversion; provided, that, if this Note shall be surrendered for conversion during the period from the close of business on any Regular Record Date for the payment of interest through the close of business on the Business Day next preceding the following Interest Payment Date, and has not been called for redemption on a Redemption Date that occurs during such period, such Note (or portion thereof being converted) must be accompanied by an amount, in funds acceptable to the Company, equal to the interest payable on such Interest Payment Date on the principal amount being converted; provided, however, that no such payment shall be required if there shall exist at the time of conversion a default in the payment of interest on the Notes. No fractional shares will be issued upon any conversion, but an adjustment and payment in cash will be made, as provided in the Indenture, in respect of any fraction of a share which would otherwise be issuable upon the surrender of any Notes for conversion. Notes in respect of which a Holder is exercising its right to require repurchase on a Repurchase Date may be converted only if such Holder withdraws its election to exercise such right in accordance with the terms of the Indenture. Any Notes called for redemption, unless surrendered for conversion by the Holders thereof on or before the close of business on the Business Day preceding the date fixed for redemption, may be deemed to be redeemed from such Holders for an amount equal to the applicable Redemption Price, by one or more investment banks or other purchasers who may agree with the Company (i) to purchase such Notes from the Holders thereof and convert them into shares of the Common Stock and (ii) to make payment for such Notes as aforesaid to the Trustee in trust for the Holders. In the event of a deposit or withdrawal of an interest in this Note, including an exchange, transfer, repurchase or conversion of this Note in part only, the Trustee, as custodian of the Depositary, shall make an adjustment on its records to reflect such deposit or withdrawal in accordance with the rules and procedures of the Depositary. If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the Principal plus interest accrued through such date on all the Notes may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. 6 The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the Holders of the Notes under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes, on behalf of the Holders of all the Notes, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note. As provided in and subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the Holder of this Note shall not have the right to institute any proceeding with respect to the Indenture or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee or for any other remedy thereunder, unless such Holder shall have previously given the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the Notes, the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes shall have made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default as Trustee and offered the Trustee reasonable indemnity satisfactory to it, and the Trustee shall not have received from the Holders of a majority in principal amount of Outstanding Notes a direction inconsistent with such request, and shall have failed to institute any such proceeding, for 60 days after receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity. The foregoing shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Holder of this Note for the enforcement of any payment of said principal hereof or interest hereon on or after the respective due dates expressed herein or for the enforcement of any conversion right. No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the Principal or Repurchase Price of, and interest on, this Note at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Note is registrable by the Registrar, upon presentation of this Note for registration of transfer to the Registrar if the Registrar's requirements for such transactions are met.

Notes are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes of a different authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same. No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.
