(c) For the avoidance of doubt, in consequence of the foregoing Section 3(a), from and after the Effective Time, the Holder of each Note then outstanding shall have the right to convert such Note (pursuant to, and subject to the conditions under, Article X of the First Supplemental Indenture and subject to adjustment by any Make-Whole Applicable Increase applicable to a given conversion) into 11.7424 shares of common stock of the Parent and $114.560 in cash per $1,000 principal amount of Notes (resulting from application of the Conversion Rate of 11.4560 to the Common Stock as the meaning of such term is modified above), subject to further adjustments as described in this Indenture; provided, however, that at and after the Effective Time, the portion of each Daily Settlement Amount payable in cash under the Indenture upon the conversion of a Note shall continue to be payable in cash.
