23. The section Description of the New DebenturesConversion RightsNet Share Settlement Upon Conversion on pages 30-32 of the Offering Circular is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows: | |||
Holders that surrender their new debentures for conversion will receive, in exchange for those new debentures, cash or, if applicable, a combination of cash and shares of our common stock, as follows. Upon conversion, holders will receive, per $1,000 principal amount of new debentures being converted, a settlement amount that is equal to the sum of the daily settlement amounts (as described below) for each of the 20 trading days during the cash settlement averaging period (as described below). | |||
The cash settlement averaging period with respect to any new debenture means the 20 consecutive trading-day period that begins on, and includes, the second trading day after the day the new debentures are tendered for conversion. | |||
The daily settlement amount, for each of the 20 trading days during the cash settlement averaging period, consists of: |
| cash equal to the lesser of $50 and the daily conversion value (as described below), which amount of cash we refer to as the daily principal return; and | ||||
| to the extent the daily conversion value exceeds $50, a number of whole shares of our common stock equal to the daily share amount (as described below) for such trading day; provided, however, that we will pay cash in lieu of fractional shares based on the closing sale price per share of our common stock on the last day of the cash settlement averaging period. |
The daily share amount on a given trading day in the relevant cash settlement averaging period means: |
| the excess of the daily conversion value over $50, divided by; | ||||
| the VWAP price of our common stock on that trading day. |
6

| the conversion rate of the new debentures in effect on that trading day; and | ||||
| the VWAP price of our common stock on that trading day. |
We refer to the cash due upon conversion as the principal return, and we refer to the shares, if any, that are due upon conversion as the net shares. | |||
Trading day generally means any day during which: |
| trading in our common stock generally occurs on the primary United States national securities exchange or market on which our common stock is listed or admitted to trading; and | ||||
| there is no market disruption event (as described below). |

We may be unable to pay the cash portion of the conversion value upon conversion of any new debentures by holders. Our ability to settle our conversion obligation with respect to the new debentures in cash may be limited by law or by our debt agreements in existence at the time of such conversion. Accordingly, we may not have the financial resources, or may not be able to arrange financing, to pay any portion of the conversion value in cash. See Risk FactorsRisks Related to the New DebenturesWe may not have the funds necessary to finance the repurchase or conversion of the new debentures or may otherwise be restricted from making such repurchase or conversion if required by holders pursuant to the indenture. |
