The integrated aggregate transaction also includes at least one of the following additional features: a derivative contract having a strike price structured to be adjusted up to a maturity date of the derivative contract; at least a portion of the convertible debt hedge is structured to be exercised automatically upon conversion of at least a portion of the convertible debt component by the investor; a derivative contract structured to be voidable at the option of at least one of the issuer and a counter-party to the derivative contract, or structured to be automatically terminated, if the investor exercises a change of control put on the convertible debt component; and/or, a derivative contract structured to become voidable at the option of at least one of the issuer and the counter-party to the derivative contract, or structured to be automatically terminated, upon an event of default of the convertible debt component by the issuer.
