''Contract law''.  
 
Also known as Exemption clause.
A straight bond with an embedded option to exchange the bond for the stock of a company other than the issuer (usually a subsidiary or company in which the issuer owns a stake) at some future date and under prescribed conditions.
 
 
This right is an option in favour of the holder / investor.
 
In return for this additional valuable right, the investor is generally willing to accept a lower rate of interest on the debt.
 
This saves interest for the issuer / borrower, at the cost of writing the option.
