"After-Tax Yield" shall mean: (a) the amount received as interest on the Series 2014
Note less (i) any federal income taxes directly or indirectly payable on such interest; and (ii) any
federal income tax liability directly or indirectly imposed on the Series 2014 Noteholder as a
result of its purchase or ownership of or receipt of interest from such Series 2014 Note (including
any tax liability resulting from disallowance or limitation on any deductions, credits or other tax
benefits), all on an annualized basis, divided by: (b) the outstanding principal amount held by
the Series 2014 Noteholder. Unless the Series 2014 Noteholder shall otherwise determine (as,
for example, in the case of an alternative minimum tax), the income is subject to taxation at a
rate applicable to the highest bracket of corporate income. If the Series 2014 Noteholder is a

shall be made on a consolidated basis unless the Series 2014 Noteholder shall deem a different
