The Indenture was filed as Exhibit 4.5 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on October 15, 2009. To the extent required by Item 1.02 of Form 8-K, the Indenture and the description thereof in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on October 15, 2009 is incorporated by reference in this Item 1.02.

On October 29, 2014, the Company issued a press release announcing that, prior to scheduled redemption, the holders of all of the Company’s Convertible Notes converted such Convertible Notes into shares of the Company’s common stock in accordance with the existing terms of the Convertible Notes.
