Dear Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

The purpose of this communication (this “Confirmation”) is to set forth the terms and conditions of the above-referenced transaction entered into on the Trade Date specified below (the “Transaction”) between Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC (“Dealer”) and Winnebago Industries, Inc. (“Counterparty”).  This communication constitutes a “Confirmation” as referred to in the Agreement specified below.

 

1.     This Confirmation is subject to, and incorporates, the definitions and provisions of the 2006 ISDA Definitions (the “2006 Definitions”) and the definitions and provisions of the 2002 ISDA Equity Derivatives Definitions (the “Equity Definitions”, and together with the 2006 Definitions, the “Definitions”), in each case as published by the International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. (“ISDA”). For purposes of the Equity Definitions, each reference herein to a Warrant shall be deemed to be a reference to a Call Option or an Option, as context requires.

 

Counterparty is hereby advised, and Counterparty acknowledges, that Dealer has engaged in, or refrained from engaging in, substantial financial transactions and has taken other material actions in reliance upon the parties’ entry into the Transaction to which this Confirmation relates on the terms and conditions set forth below.

 

This Confirmation evidences a complete and binding agreement between Dealer and Counterparty as to the terms of the Transaction to which this Confirmation relates.  This Confirmation shall be subject to an agreement (the “Agreement”) in the form of the 1992 ISDA Master Agreement (Multicurrency—Cross Border) as if Dealer and Counterparty had executed an agreement in such form on the date hereof (but without any Schedule except for (i) the election of Loss and Second Method and US Dollars (“USD”) as the Termination Currency, (ii) the replacement of the word “third” in the last line of Section 5(a)(i) of the Agreement with the word “first” and (iii) the election that the “Cross Default” provisions of Section 5(a)(vi) of the Agreement shall apply to Counterparty with a “Threshold Amount” of USD15.0 million).

 

All provisions contained in, or incorporated by reference to, the Agreement will govern this Confirmation except as expressly modified herein.  In the event of any inconsistency among this Confirmation, the Equity Definitions, the 2006 Definitions or the Agreement, the following shall prevail in the order of precedence indicated: (i) this Confirmation; (ii) the Equity Definitions; (iii) the 2006 Definitions; and (iv) the Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, except to the extent of an express conflict, the application of any provision of this Confirmation, the Agreement, the Equity Definitions or the 2006 

 











 

Definitions shall not be construed to exclude or limit any other provision of this Confirmation, the Agreement, the Equity Definitions or the 2006 Definitions.

 

The Transaction hereunder shall be the sole Transaction under the Agreement.  If there exists any ISDA Master Agreement between Dealer and Counterparty or any confirmation or other agreement between Dealer and Counterparty pursuant to which an ISDA Master Agreement is deemed to exist between Dealer and Counterparty, then notwithstanding anything to the contrary in such ISDA Master Agreement, such confirmation or agreement or any other agreement to which Dealer and Counterparty are parties, the Transaction shall not be considered a Transaction under, or otherwise governed by, such existing or deemed ISDA Master Agreement.

 

2.     The Transaction is a Warrant Transaction, which shall be considered a Share Option Transaction for purposes of the Equity Definitions.  The terms of the particular Transaction to which this Confirmation relates are as follows:

Valuation Time
    
	
 
    	
 
    	
 
    
	
Expiration Date:
    	
 
    	
As provided in Annex A to this Confirmation   (or, if such date is not a Scheduled Trading Day, the next following   Scheduled Trading Day that is not already an Expiration Date for another   Component); provided that if that date is a   Disrupted Day, the Expiration Date for such Component shall be the first   succeeding Scheduled Trading Day that is not a Disrupted Day and is not and   is not deemed to be an Expiration Date in respect of any other Component of   the Transaction hereunder; and provided further   that if the Expiration Date has not occurred pursuant to the preceding   proviso as of the Final Disruption Date, the Calculation Agent shall have the   right to elect, in its sole discretion, that the Final Disruption Date shall   be the Expiration Date (irrespective of whether such date is an Expiration   Date in respect of any other Component for the Transaction). Notwithstanding   the foregoing and anything to the contrary in the Equity Definitions, if a   Market Disruption Event occurs on any Expiration Date, the Calculation Agent   may determine that such Expiration Date is a Disrupted Day only in part, in   which case the Calculation Agent shall make adjustments to the Number of   Warrants for the relevant Component for which such day shall be the   Expiration Date, shall designate the Scheduled Trading Day determined in the   manner described in the immediately preceding sentence as the Expiration Date   for the remaining Warrants for such Component and may determine the VWAP   Price for such Expiration Date based on transactions in the Shares taking   into account the nature and duration of such Market Disruption Event. Any   Scheduled Trading Day on which, as of the date hereof, the Exchange is   scheduled to close prior to its normal close of trading shall be deemed not   to be a Scheduled Trading Day; if a closure of the Exchange prior to its   normal close of trading on any Scheduled Trading Day is scheduled following   the date hereof, then such Scheduled Trading Day shall be deemed to be a Disrupted   Day in full. Section 6.6 of the Equity   Definitions shall not apply to any Valuation Date occurring on an Expiration   Date. “Final Disruption Date” means   December 3, 2025.

Market Disruption   Event:
    	
 
    	
Section 6.3(a) of the Equity Definitions   is hereby amended by (A) deleting the words “during the one hour period   that ends at the relevant Valuation Time, Latest Exercise Time, Knock-in   Valuation Time or Knock-out Valuation Time, as the case may be,” in clause   (ii) thereof and (B) by replacing the words “or (iii) an Early   Closure.” therein with “(iii) an Early Closure, or (iv) a   Regulatory Disruption.”
    
	
 
    	
 
    	
 
    
	
 
    	
 
    	
Section 6.3(d) of the Equity Definitions   is hereby amended by deleting the remainder of the provision following the   term “Scheduled Closing Time” in the fourth line thereof.
    
	
 
    	
 
    	
 
    
	
Regulatory Disruption:
    	
 
    	
Any event that Dealer, in its discretion, determines   makes it appropriate, with regard to any legal, regulatory or self-regulatory   requirements or related policies and procedures (whether or not such   requirements or related policies and procedures are imposed by law or have   been voluntarily adopted by Dealer), for Dealer to refrain from or decrease   any market activity in connection with the Transaction.
    
	
 
    	
 
    	
 
    
	
Automatic Exercise:
    	
 
    	
Applicable; and means that the Number of Warrants   for the corresponding Expiration Date will be deemed to be automatically   exercised at the Expiration Time on such Expiration Date unless Dealer   notifies Seller (by telephone or in writing) prior to the Expiration Time on   such Expiration Date that it does not wish Automatic Exercise to occur, in   which case Automatic Exercise will not apply to such Expiration Date.
    
	
 
    	
 
    	
 
    
	
Counterparty’s   Telephone Number and Telex and/or Facsimile Number and Contact Details for   purpose of Giving Notice:

If, in the reasonable opinion of Dealer, based on   advice of counsel, for any reason, the Shares deliverable upon Net Share   Settlement would not be immediately freely transferable by Dealer under   Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), then Dealer may elect to either   (x) accept delivery of such Shares notwithstanding any restriction on   transfer or (y)

have the provisions set forth in   Section 8(c) below apply.

In respect of any Exercise Date, the product of   (i) the number of Warrants exercised or deemed exercised on such   Exercise Date, (ii) the Warrant Entitlement and (iii) (A) the   excess of the VWAP Price on the Valuation Date occurring in respect of such Exercise   Date over the Strike Price (or, if there is no such excess, zero) divided by (B) such VWAP Price.
    
	
 
    	
 
    	
 
    
	
VWAP Price:

Other Applicable   Provisions:
    	
 
    	
The provisions of Sections 9.1(c), 9.4, 9.8, 9.9,   9.10, 9.11 and 9.12 of the Equity Definitions will be applicable as if   “Physical Settlement” applied to the Transaction; provided   that the Representation and Agreement contained in Section 9.11 of the   Equity Definitions shall be modified by excluding any representations therein   relating to restrictions, obligations, limitations or requirements under   applicable securities laws that exist as a result of the fact that   Counterparty is the issuer of the Shares.
    
	
 
    	
 
    	
 
    
	
Adjustments:
    	
 
    	
 
    
	
 
    	
 
    	
 
    
	
In respect of any Component:

(c)   Share-for-Combined:

(c)   Share-for-Combined:
    	
 
    	
Modified Calculation Agent Adjustment
    
	
 
    	
 
    	
 
    
	
Consequences of   Announcement Events:
    	
 
    	
Modified Calculation Agent Adjustment as set forth   in Section 12.3(d) of the Equity Definitions; provided   that, in respect of an Announcement Event, (x) references to “Tender   Offer” shall be replaced by references to “Announcement Event” and references   to “Tender Offer Date” shall be replaced by references to “date of such   Announcement Event”, (y) the word “shall” in the second line shall be   replaced with “may”, and (z) for the avoidance of doubt, the Calculation   Agent may determine whether the relevant Announcement Event has had an   economic effect on any Component (and, if so, adjust the terms of such   Component accordingly) on one or more occasions on or after the date of the   Announcement Event up to, and including, the Expiration Date, any Early   Termination Date and/or any other date of cancellation thereof, it being   understood that any adjustment in respect of an Announcement Event shall take   into account any earlier adjustment relating to the same Announcement Event.

Announcement Event:

transaction or intention or the announcement of a   withdrawal from, or the abandonment or discontinuation of, such a transaction   or intention), as determined by the Calculation Agent. For the avoidance of   doubt, the occurrence of an Announcement Event with respect to any   transaction or intention shall not preclude the occurrence of a later   Announcement Event with respect to such transaction or intention. For   purposes of this definition of “Announcement Event,” the remainder of the   definition of “Merger Event” in Section 12.1(b) of the Equity   Definitions following the definition of “Reverse Merger” therein shall be   disregarded.
    
	
 
    	
 
    	
 
    
	
Modified Calculation   Agent Adjustment:
    	
 
    	
If, in respect of a Merger Event, the Counterparty   under the Transaction following such Merger Event will not be the issuer of   the New Shares, the Dealer may elect (in its sole discretion) for   Cancellation and Payment (Calculation Agent Determination) to apply. In   addition, if, in respect of any Merger Event to which Modified Calculation   Agent Adjustment applies, the adjustments to be made in accordance with   Section 12.2(e)(i) of the Equity Definitions would result in   Counterparty being different from the issuer of the Shares, then with respect   to such Merger Event, as a condition precedent to the adjustments contemplated   in Section 12.2(e)(i) of the Equity Definitions, Counterparty and   the issuer of the Shares shall, prior to the Merger Date, have entered into   such documentation containing representations, warranties and agreements   relating to securities law and other issues as requested by Dealer that   Dealer has determined, in its reasonable discretion, to be reasonably   necessary or appropriate to allow Dealer to continue as a party to the   Transaction, as adjusted under Section 12.2(e)(i) of the Equity   Definitions, and to preserve its hedging or hedge unwind activities in   connection with the Transaction in a manner compliant with applicable legal,   regulatory or self-regulatory requirements, or with related policies and   procedures applicable to Dealer (whether or not such requirements or related   policies and procedures are imposed by law or have been voluntarily adopted   by Dealer), and if such conditions are not met or if the Calculation Agent   determines that no adjustment that it could make under   Section 12.2(e)(i) of the Equity Definitions will produce a   commercially reasonable result, then the consequences set forth in   Section 12.2(e)(ii) of the Equity Definitions shall apply.
    
	
 
    	
 
    	
 
    
	
Composition of Combined   Consideration:
    	
 
    	
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Equity   Definitions, if the composition of Combined Consideration in respect of any   Share-for-Combined Merger Event could be determined by a holder of Shares,   Dealer shall determine the composition of such Combined Consideration assumed   for purposes

7.             Representations, Warranties and Agreements:

 

(a)           In addition to the representations and warranties in the Agreement and those contained elsewhere herein, Counterparty represents and warrants to and for the benefit of, and agrees with, Dealer as follows:

 

(i)            On the Trade Date and as of the date of any Notice of Share Termination under (and as defined in) Section 8(b) below, (A) none of Counterparty and its officers and directors is aware of any material nonpublic information regarding Counterparty or the Shares and (B) all reports and other documents filed by Counterparty with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), when considered as a whole (with the more recent such reports and documents deemed to amend inconsistent statements contained in any earlier such reports and documents), do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or any omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading.

 

(ii)           Without limiting the generality of Section 13.1 of the Equity Definitions, Counterparty acknowledges that neither Dealer nor any of its affiliates is making any representations or warranties or taking any position or expressing any view with respect to the treatment of the Transaction under any accounting standards  including ASC Topic 260, Earnings Per Share, ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, or ASC Topic 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity and ASC 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging — Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (or any successor issue statements).

 

(iii)          Prior to the Trade Date, Counterparty shall deliver to Dealer a resolution of Counterparty’s board of directors authorizing the Transaction and such other certificate or certificates as Dealer shall reasonably request.  Based on such resolutions, neither Dealer nor any of its affiliates shall be subject to the restrictions under Section 490.1110 of the Iowa Business Corporation Act as an “interested stockholder” of Counterparty by virtue of (A) its role as initial purchaser of, or market-maker in, any securities of Counterparty convertible into the Shares, (B) its entry into the Transaction and/or (C) any hedging transactions in Counterparty’s securities in connection with the Transaction.

 

(iv)          Counterparty is not entering into this Confirmation to create actual or apparent trading activity in the Shares (or any security convertible into or exchangeable for Shares) or to raise or depress or otherwise manipulate the price of the Shares (or any security convertible into or exchangeable for Shares) or otherwise in violation of the Exchange Act.

 

(v)           Counterparty is not, and after giving effect to the transactions contemplated hereby will not be, required to register as an “investment company” as such term is defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

 

(vi)          On the Trade Date and the Premium Payment Date (A) the assets of Counterparty at their fair valuation exceed the liabilities of Counterparty, including contingent liabilities, (B) the capital of Counterparty is adequate to conduct the business of Counterparty and (C) Counterparty has the ability to pay its debts and obligations as such debts mature and does not intend to, or does not believe that it will, incur debt beyond its ability to pay as such debts mature.

 

(vii)         Counterparty shall not take any action to decrease the number of Available Shares below the Capped Number (each as defined below, but without giving effect to the limitation on adjustments to the Capped Number set forth in the proviso in the first sentence of Section Error! Reference source not found.8(f)).

 

(viii)        The representations and warranties of Counterparty set forth in Section 3 of the Agreement and Section 1 of the Purchase Agreement dated as of the Trade Date between Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC and BMO Capital Markets Corp. as the representatives (the “Representatives”) of the Initial Purchasers and Counterparty (the “Purchase Agreement”) are true and correct as of the Trade Date and the Effective Date and are hereby deemed to be repeated to Dealer as if set forth herein.

(ix)          (x) (A) On the Trade Date, the Shares or securities that are convertible into, or exchangeable or exercisable for Shares, are not, and shall not be, subject to a “restricted period,” as such term is defined in Regulation M under the Exchange Act (“Regulation M”) and (B) Counterparty shall not engage in any “distribution,” as such term is defined in Regulation M, other than a distribution meeting the requirements of the exceptions set forth in sections 101(b)(10) and 102(b)(7) of Regulation M, until the second Exchange Business Day immediately following the Trade Date, and (y)(A) during the period starting on the first Expiration Date and ending on the last Expiration Date (the “Settlement Period”), the Shares or securities that are convertible into, or exchangeable or exercisable for Shares, are not, and shall not be, subject to a “restricted period,” as defined in Regulation M and (B) Counterparty shall not engage in any “distribution,” as such term is defined in Regulation M until the second Exchange Business Day immediately following the Settlement Period.

 

(x)           (x) On the Trade Date, (y) during the Settlement Period and (z) on any other Exercise Date, neither Counterparty nor any “affiliate” or “affiliated purchaser” (each as defined in Rule 10b-18 of the Exchange Act (“Rule 10b-18”)) shall directly or indirectly (including, without limitation, by means of any cash-settled or other derivative instrument) purchase, offer to purchase, place any bid or limit order that would effect a purchase of, or commence any tender offer relating to, any Shares (or an equivalent interest, including a unit of beneficial interest in a trust or limited partnership or a depository share) or any security convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for Shares, except through Dealer.

 

(xi)          Counterparty agrees that it (A) will not during the Settlement Period make, or permit to be made, any public announcement (as defined in Rule 165(f) under the Securities Act) of any Merger Transaction or potential Merger Transaction unless such public announcement is made prior to the opening or after the close of the regular trading session on the Exchange for the Shares; (B) shall promptly (but in any event prior to the next opening of the regular trading session on the Exchange) notify Dealer following any such announcement that such announcement has been made; and (C) shall promptly (but in any event prior to the next opening of the regular trading session on the Exchange) provide Dealer with written notice specifying (i) Counterparty’s average daily Rule 10b-18 Purchases (as defined in Rule 10b-18) during the three full calendar months immediately preceding the announcement date that were not effected through Dealer or its affiliates and (ii) the number of Shares purchased pursuant to the proviso in Rule 10b-18(b)(4) under the Exchange Act for the three full calendar months preceding the announcement date.  Such written notice shall be deemed to be a certification by Counterparty to Dealer that such information is true and correct.  In addition, Counterparty shall promptly notify Dealer of the earlier to occur of the completion of such transaction and the completion of the vote by target shareholders.  “Merger Transaction” means any merger, acquisition or similar transaction involving a recapitalization as contemplated by Rule 10b-18(a)(13)(iv) under the Exchange Act.

 

(xii)         (A) Any issuance of Shares upon exercise or termination of the Transaction has been, and throughout the Transaction will continue to be, duly authorized and, upon issuance, such Shares will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, and the issuance or delivery thereof shall not be subject to any preemptive or similar rights and such Shares shall, upon issuance, be accepted for listing or quotation on the Exchange; (B) a number of Shares of Counterparty equal to the Capped Number have been reserved for issuance upon exercise or termination of the Warrants by all required corporate action of the Counterparty and (C) the Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants shall upon issuance be accepted for listing or quotation on the Exchange, subject to notice that the listing of the Shares issuable upon exercise or termination of the Warrants on the Exchange has been approved by the Exchange.

 

(xiii)        No state or local (including non-U.S. jurisdictions) law, rule, regulation or regulatory order applicable to the Shares would give rise to any reporting, consent, registration or other requirement (including without limitation a requirement to obtain prior approval from any person or entity) as a result of Dealer or its affiliates owning, holding (however defined) or having a right to acquire Shares.

 

13











 

(xiv)        Counterparty (A) is capable of evaluating investment risks independently, both in general and with regard to all transactions and investment strategies involving a security or securities, including, without limitation, the transaction that is the subject of this confirmation and any transactions related hereto or contemplated hereby; (B) will exercise independent judgment in evaluating the recommendations of Dealer and its affiliates or associated persons with regard to any such securities transactions or strategies unless it has otherwise notified Dealer in writing; and (C) has total assets of at least $50 million. Counterparty will notify Dealer if the immediately preceding statement contained in this Section 7(a)(xiv) ceases to be true.

 

(xv)         Without limiting the generality of Section 3(a) of the Agreement, neither the execution and delivery of this Confirmation nor the incurrence or performance of obligations of Counterparty hereunder will conflict with or result in a breach of the certificate of incorporation or by-laws (or any equivalent documents) of Counterparty, or any applicable law or regulation, or any order, writ, injunction or decree of any court or governmental authority or agency, or any agreement or instrument filed as an exhibit to Counterparty’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended August 31, 2019, as updated by any subsequent filings, to which Counterparty or any of its subsidiaries is a party or by which Counterparty or any of its subsidiaries is bound or to which Counterparty or any of its subsidiaries is subject, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation of any lien under, any such agreement or instrument.

 

(b)           Each of Dealer and Counterparty agrees and represents that it is an “eligible contract participant” as defined in Section 1a(18) of the U.S. Commodity Exchange Act, as amended, and is entering into the Transaction as principal (and not as agent or in any other capacity, fiduciary or otherwise) and not for the benefit of any third party.

 

(c)           Each of Dealer and Counterparty acknowledges that the offer and sale of the Transaction to it is intended to be exempt from registration under the Securities Act, by virtue of Section 4(a)(2) thereof.  Accordingly, Dealer represents and warrants to Counterparty that (i) it has the financial ability to bear the economic risk of its investment in the Transaction and is able to bear a total loss of its investment and its investments in and liabilities in respect of the Transaction, which it understands are not readily marketable, are not disproportionate to its net worth, and it is able to bear any loss in connection with the Transaction, including the loss of its entire investment in the Transaction, (ii) it is an “accredited investor” as that term is defined in Regulation D as promulgated under the Securities Act, (iii) it is entering into the Transaction for its own account and without a view to the distribution or resale thereof, (iv) the assignment, transfer or other disposition of the Transaction has not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act and is restricted under this Confirmation, the Securities Act and state securities laws, and (v) its financial condition is such that it has no need for liquidity with respect to its investment in the Transaction and no need to dispose of any portion thereof to satisfy any existing or contemplated undertaking or indebtedness and is capable of assessing the merits of and understanding (on its own behalf or through independent professional advice), and understands and accepts, the terms, conditions and risks of the Transaction.

 

(d)             Each of Dealer and Counterparty agrees and acknowledges that Dealer is a “financial institution” and “financial participant” within the meaning of Sections 101(22) and 101(22A) of Title 11 of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”).  The parties hereto further agree and acknowledge (A) that this Confirmation is a “securities contract,” as such term is defined in Section 741(7) of the Bankruptcy Code, with respect to which each payment and delivery hereunder or in connection herewith is a “termination value,” “payment amount” or “other transfer obligation” within the meaning of Section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code and a “settlement payment” within the meaning of Section 546 of the Bankruptcy Code, and (B) that Dealer is entitled to the protections afforded by, among other sections, Sections 362(b)(6), 362(b)(27), 362(o), 546(e), 546(j), 548(d)(2), 555 and 561 of the Bankruptcy Code.

(f)              Counterparty understands that notwithstanding any other relationship between Counterparty and Dealer and its affiliates, in connection with this Transaction and any other over-the-counter derivative transactions between Counterparty and Dealer or its affiliates, Dealer or its affiliate is acting as principal and is not a fiduciary or advisor in respect of any such transaction, including any entry, exercise, amendment, unwind or termination thereof.

 

(g)             Counterparty represents and warrants that it has received, read and understands the OTC Options Risk Disclosure Statement and a copy of the most recent disclosure pamphlet prepared by The Options Clearing Corporation entitled “Characteristics and Risks of Standardized Options”.

 

(h)             Each party acknowledges and agrees to be bound by the Conduct Rules of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. applicable to transactions in options, and further agrees not to violate the position and exercise limits set forth therein.

 

8.       Other Provisions:

 

(a)             Right to Extend.  Dealer may postpone or add, in whole or in part, any Expiration Date or Settlement Date or any other date of valuation or delivery by Counterparty, with respect to some or all of the relevant Warrants (in which event the Calculation Agent shall make appropriate adjustments to the relevant delivery obligation), if Dealer determines, in its commercially reasonable discretion, that such extension is reasonably necessary or appropriate to preserve Dealer’s commercially reasonable hedging or hedge unwind activity hereunder in light of existing liquidity conditions in the cash market, the stock borrow market or other relevant market or to enable Dealer to effect transactions with respect to Shares or Share Termination Delivery Units in connection with its commercially reasonable hedging, hedge unwind or settlement activity hereunder in a manner that would, if Dealer were Counterparty or an affiliated purchaser of Counterparty, be in compliance with applicable legal, regulatory or self-regulatory requirements, or with related policies and procedures (whether or not such requirements, policies or procedures are imposed by law or have been voluntarily adopted by Dealer).

 

(b)           Alternative Calculations and Payment on Early Termination and on Certain Extraordinary Events.  If Counterparty shall owe Dealer any amount pursuant to Section 6(d)(ii) of the Agreement (a “Payment Obligation”), Counterparty shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to satisfy any such Payment Obligation by the Share Termination Alternative (as defined below) by giving irrevocable telephonic notice to Dealer, confirmed in writing within one Scheduled Trading Day (which written confirmation shall contain the representation and warranty set forth in Section 7(a)(i)), no later than 9:30 A.M., New York City time, on the Merger Date, Tender Offer Date, Announcement Date, Early Termination Date or date of cancellation or termination in respect of an Extraordinary Event, as applicable (“Notice of Share Termination”); provided that if Counterparty does not elect to satisfy its Payment Obligation by the Share Termination Alternative, Dealer shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to elect to require Counterparty to satisfy its Payment Obligation by the Share Termination Alternative, notwithstanding Counterparty’s failure to elect or election to the contrary; and provided further that Counterparty shall not have the right to so elect (but, for the avoidance of doubt, Dealer shall have the right to so elect) in the event of (i) an Insolvency, a Nationalization or a Merger Event, in each case, in which the consideration or proceeds to be paid to holders of Shares consists solely of cash or (ii) an Event of Default in which Counterparty is the Defaulting Party or a Termination Event in which Counterparty is the Affected Party or an Extraordinary Event, which Event of Default, Termination Event or Extraordinary Event resulted from an event or events within Counterparty’s control.  Upon such Notice of Share Termination, the following provisions shall apply on the Scheduled Trading Day immediately following the Merger Date, the Tender Offer Date, Announcement Date, Early Termination Date or date of cancellation or termination in respect of an Extraordinary Event, as applicable:

 

	
Share Termination   Alternative:
    	
 
    	
If applicable, means that Counterparty shall deliver   to Dealer the Share Termination Delivery Property on the date on which the   Payment Obligation would otherwise be due pursuant to   Section 6(d)(ii) of the Agreement, or such later date or dates as   the Calculation Agent may reasonably determine (the “Share   Termination Payment Date”), in

If such   Insolvency, Nationalization or Merger Event involves a choice of   consideration to be received by holders, such holder shall be deemed to have   elected to receive the maximum possible amount of cash.
    
	
 
    	
 
    	
 
    
	
Failure to Deliver:
    	
 
    	
Not Applicable
    
	
 
    	
 
    	
 
    
	
Other Applicable Provisions:
    	
 
    	
If Share Termination Alternative is applicable, the   provisions of Sections 9.1(c), 9.8, 9.9, 9.11 and 9.12 of the Equity   Definitions will be applicable as if “Physical Settlement” applied to the   Transaction, except that all references to “Shares” shall be read as   references to “Share Termination Delivery Units”; provided   that the Representation and Agreement contained in Section 9.11 of the   Equity Definitions shall be modified by excluding any representations therein   relating to restrictions, obligations, limitations or requirements under   applicable securities laws as a result of the fact that Counterparty is the   issuer of any Share Termination Delivery Units (or any security forming a   part thereof). If, in the reasonable opinion of Dealer, based on advice of   counsel, for any reason, any securities comprising the Share Termination   Delivery Units deliverable pursuant to this Section 8(b) would not   be immediately freely transferable by Dealer under Rule 144 under the   Securities Act, then Dealer may elect to either (x) permit delivery of   such securities notwithstanding any restriction on transfer or (y) have   the provisions set forth in Section 8(c) below apply.
    


 

(c)             Registration/Private Placement Procedures.  (i) With respect to the Transaction, the following provisions shall apply to the extent provided for above opposite the caption “Net Share Settlement” in Section 2 or in paragraph (b) of this Section 8.  If so applicable, then, at the election of Counterparty by notice to Dealer within one Exchange Business Day after the relevant delivery obligation arises, but in any event at least one Exchange Business Day prior to the date on which such delivery obligation is due, either (A) all Shares or Share Termination Delivery Units, as the case may be, delivered by Counterparty to Dealer shall be, at the time of such delivery, covered by an effective registration statement of Counterparty for immediate resale by Dealer (such registration statement and the

 

16












 

corresponding prospectus (the “Prospectus”) (including, without limitation, any sections describing the plan of distribution) in form and content commercially reasonably satisfactory to Dealer) or (B) Counterparty shall deliver additional Shares or Share Termination Delivery Units, as the case may be, so that the value of such Shares or Share Termination Delivery Units, as determined by the Calculation Agent to reflect a commercially reasonable liquidity discount, equals the value of the number of Shares or Share Termination Delivery Units that would otherwise be deliverable if such Shares or Share Termination Delivery Units were freely tradeable (without prospectus delivery) upon receipt by Dealer (such value, the “Freely Tradeable Value”); provided that, if requested by Dealer, Counterparty shall make the election described in this clause (B) with respect to Shares delivered on all Settlement Dates no later than one Exchange Business Day prior to the first Exercise Date, and the applicable procedures described below shall apply to all Shares delivered on the Settlement Dates on an aggregate basis.  (For the avoidance of doubt, as used in this paragraph (c) only, the term “Counterparty” shall mean the issuer of the relevant securities, as the context shall require.)

 

(ii)           It shall be a condition to Counterparty’s right to make the election described in clause (c)(i)(A) that:

 

(A)          Dealer (or an affiliate of Dealer designated by Dealer) shall be afforded a reasonable opportunity to conduct a due diligence investigation with respect to Counterparty that is customary in scope for underwritten offerings of equity securities and that yields results that are  satisfactory to Dealer or such affiliate, as the case may be, in its discretion; and

 

(B)          Dealer (or an affiliate of Dealer designated by Dealer) and Counterparty shall enter into an agreement (a “Registration Agreement”) on commercially reasonable terms in connection with the public resale of such Shares or Share Termination Delivery Units, as the case may be, by Dealer or such affiliate substantially similar to underwriting agreements customary for underwritten offerings of equity securities, in form and substance commercially reasonably satisfactory to Dealer or such affiliate and Counterparty, which Registration Agreement shall include, without limitation, provisions substantially similar to those contained in such underwriting agreements relating to the indemnification of, and contribution in connection with the liability of, Dealer and its affiliates and Counterparty, shall provide for the payment by Counterparty of all expenses in connection with such resale, including all registration costs and all fees and expenses of counsel for Dealer, and shall provide for the delivery of accountants’ “comfort letters” to Dealer or such affiliate with respect to the financial statements and certain financial information contained in or incorporated by reference into the Prospectus.

 

(iii)          If Counterparty makes the election described in clause (c)(i)(B) above:

 

(A)          Dealer (or an affiliate of Dealer designated by Dealer) and any potential institutional purchaser of any such Shares or Share Termination Delivery Units, as the case may be, from Dealer or such affiliate identified by Dealer shall be afforded a commercially reasonable opportunity to conduct a due diligence investigation in compliance with applicable law with respect to Counterparty customary in scope for private placements of equity securities (including, without limitation, the right to have made available to them for inspection all financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and other information reasonably requested by them), subject to execution by such recipients of customary confidentiality agreements reasonably acceptable to Counterparty;

 

(B)          Dealer (or an affiliate of Dealer designated by Dealer) and Counterparty shall enter into an agreement (a “Private Placement Agreement”) on commercially reasonable terms in connection with the private placement of such Shares or Share Termination Delivery Units, as the case may be, by Counterparty to Dealer or such affiliate and the private resale of such shares by Dealer or such affiliate, substantially similar to private placement purchase agreements customary for private placements of equity securities, in form and substance commercially reasonably satisfactory to Dealer and Counterparty, which Private Placement Agreement shall include, without limitation, provisions substantially similar to those contained in such private placement purchase agreements relating to the indemnification of, and contribution in connection with the liability of, Dealer and its affiliates and Counterparty, shall provide for the payment by Counterparty of all expenses in connection with such resale, including all fees and expenses of 

 

17











 

counsel for Dealer, shall contain representations, warranties and agreements of Counterparty reasonably necessary or advisable to establish and maintain the availability of an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act for such resales, and shall use best efforts to provide for the delivery of accountants’ “comfort letters” to Dealer or such affiliate with respect to the financial statements and certain financial information contained in or incorporated by reference into the offering memorandum prepared for the resale of such Shares;

 

(C)          Counterparty agrees that (i) any Shares or Share Termination Delivery Units so delivered to Dealer may be transferred by and among Dealer and its affiliates, and Counterparty shall effect such transfer without any further action by Dealer and (ii) after the minimum “holding period” within the meaning of Rule 144(d) under the Securities Act has elapsed with respect to such Shares or any securities issued by Counterparty comprising such Share Termination Delivery Units, Counterparty shall promptly remove, or cause the transfer agent for such Shares or securities to remove, any legends referring to any such restrictions or requirements from such Shares or securities, without any further requirement for the delivery of any certificate, consent, agreement, opinion of counsel, notice or any other document, any transfer tax stamps or payment of any other amount or any other action by Dealer (or such affiliate of Dealer); and

 

(D)          Counterparty shall not take, or cause to be taken, any action that would make unavailable either the exemption pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act for the sale by Counterparty to Dealer (or any affiliate designated by Dealer) of the Shares or Share Termination Delivery Units, as the case may be, or the exemption pursuant to Section 4(a)(1) or Section 4(a)(3) of the Securities Act for resales of the Shares or Share Termination Delivery Units, as the case may be, by Dealer (or any such affiliate of Dealer).

 

(d)             Make-whole Shares. If Counterparty makes the election described in clause (i)(B) of paragraph (c) of this Section 8, then Dealer or its affiliates may sell (which sale shall be made in a commercially reasonable manner) such Shares or Share Termination Delivery Units, as the case may be, during a period (the “Resale Period”) commencing on the Exchange Business Day following delivery of such Shares or Share Termination Delivery Units, as the case may be, and ending on the Exchange Business Day on which Dealer or its affiliates completes the sale of a sufficient number of Shares or Share Termination Delivery Units, as the case may be, so that the realized net proceeds of such sales exceed the Freely Tradeable Value.  If any of such delivered Shares or Share Termination Delivery Units remain after such realized net proceeds exceed the Freely Tradeable Value, Dealer shall return such remaining Shares or Share Termination Delivery Units to Counterparty.  If the Freely Tradeable Value exceeds the realized net proceeds from such resale, Counterparty shall transfer to Dealer by the open of the regular trading session on the Exchange on the Exchange Trading Day immediately following the final day of the Resale Period (without giving effect to any extension thereof pursuant to the immediately succeeding sentence), the amount of such excess (the “Additional Amount”) in cash or in a number of additional Shares or Share Termination Delivery Units, as the case may be, (“Make-whole Shares”) in an amount that, based on the Relevant Price on such final day of the Resale Period (as if such day was the “Valuation Date” for purposes of computing such Relevant Price), has a dollar value equal to the Additional Amount.  The Resale Period shall continue to enable the sale of the Make-whole Shares in the manner contemplated by this Section 8(d).  This provision shall be applied successively until the Additional Amount is equal to zero, subject to Section 8(f).

 

(e)             Beneficial Ownership.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Agreement or this Confirmation, in no event shall Dealer be entitled to receive, or shall be deemed to receive, any Shares if, immediately upon giving effect to such receipt of such Shares (and after taking into account any Shares deliverable by Counterparty to Dealer at such time under any transaction or security other than the Transaction), (i) the “beneficial ownership” (within the meaning of Section 13 of the Exchange Act and the rules promulgated thereunder) of Shares by Dealer, any of its affiliates subject to aggregation with Dealer for purposes of the “beneficial ownership” test under Section 13 of the Exchange Act  and all persons who may form a “group” (within the meaning of Rule 13d-5(b)(1) under the Exchange Act) with Dealer with respect to “beneficial ownership” of any Shares (collectively, “Dealer Group”) (or, to the extent that for any reason the equivalent calculation under Section 16 of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder results in a higher number, such higher number) would be equal to or greater than 8.0% or more of the outstanding Shares on the date of determination or (ii) Dealer, Dealer Group or any person whose

 

18











 

ownership position would be aggregated with that of Dealer or Dealer Group (Dealer, Dealer Group or any such person, a “Dealer Person”) under the Iowa Business Corporation Act or other federal, state or local law, rule, regulation or regulatory order or organizational documents or contracts of Counterparty applicable to ownership of Shares (“Applicable Restrictions”), would own, beneficially own, constructively own, control, hold the power to vote or otherwise meet a relevant definition of ownership in excess of a number of Shares equal to (x) the number of Shares that would give rise to reporting or registration obligations or other requirements (including obtaining prior approval by a state or federal regulator) of a Dealer Person under Applicable Restrictions and with respect to which such requirements have not been met or the relevant approval has not been received or that would subject a Dealer Person to restrictions (including restrictions relating to business combinations or other designated transactions) or have any other adverse effect on a Dealer Person under Applicable Restrictions minus (y) 1.0% of the number of Shares outstanding on the date of determination (either such condition described in clause (i) or (ii), an “Excess Ownership Position”).  If any delivery owed to Dealer hereunder is not made, in whole or in part, as a result of this provision, Counterparty’s obligation to make such delivery shall not be extinguished and Counterparty shall make such delivery as promptly as practicable after, but in no event later than one Exchange Business Day after, Dealer gives notice to Counterparty that such delivery would not result in the existence of an Excess Ownership Position.

 

(f)            Limitations on Settlement by Counterparty. Notwithstanding anything herein or in the Agreement to the contrary (except as set forth in this Section 8(f)), in no event shall Counterparty be required to deliver Shares in connection with the Transaction in excess of 4,236,462 Shares, as such number may be adjusted from time to time in accordance with the provisions hereof; provided that no such adjustment shall cause the Capped Number to exceed the Available Shares (as in effect from time to time), other than as a result of actions of Counterparty or events within Counterparty’s control (the “Capped Number”).  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Agreement or the Equity Definitions, such limitation shall not affect the calculation of any Payment Obligation (as defined in Section Error! Reference source not found.8(b)), it being understood that if the Share Termination Alternative applies pursuant to Section 8(b), the number of Shares deliverable pursuant to such Section shall not exceed the Capped Number.  Counterparty represents and warrants to Dealer (which representation and warranty shall be deemed to be repeated on each day that the Transaction is outstanding) that the Capped Number is equal to or less than the number of authorized but unissued Shares of the Counterparty that are not reserved for future issuance in connection with transactions in the Shares (other than the Transaction) on the date of the determination of the Capped Number (such Shares, the “Available Shares”). In the event Counterparty shall not have delivered the full number of Shares otherwise deliverable as a result of this Section 8(f) (the resulting deficit, the “Deficit Shares”), Counterparty shall be continually obligated to deliver Shares, from time to time until the full number of Deficit Shares have been delivered pursuant to this paragraph, when, and to the extent, that (A) Shares are repurchased, acquired or otherwise received by Counterparty or any of its subsidiaries after the Trade Date (whether or not in exchange for cash, fair value or any other consideration), (B) authorized and unissued Shares previously reserved for issuance in respect of other transactions become no longer so reserved or (C) Counterparty additionally authorizes any unissued Shares that are not reserved for other transactions (such events as set forth in clauses (A), (B) and (C) above, collectively, the “Share Issuance Events”).  In the event that there are any Deficit Shares or the proviso in the first sentence of this Section 8(f) has prevented any adjustment to the Capped Number, (i) Counterparty shall promptly notify Dealer of the occurrence of any of the Share Issuance Events (including the number of Shares subject to clause (A), (B) or (C) and the corresponding number of Shares to be delivered) and, as promptly as reasonably practicable, deliver such Shares thereafter, (ii) Counterparty shall use its best efforts to cause Share Issuance Events to the extent necessary to deliver the full number of Deficit Shares or cause the Capped Number to equal the Capped Number that would be in effect but for the proviso set forth in the first sentence of this Section 8(f), as the case may be, and (iii) Counterparty shall not, until Counterparty’s obligations under the Transaction have been satisfied in full, use any Shares that become available for potential delivery to Dealer as a result of any Share Issuance Event for the settlement or satisfaction of any transaction or obligation other than the Transaction or any other warrant transaction between Counterparty and Dealer or reserve any such Shares for future issuance for any purpose other than to satisfy Counterparty’s obligations to Dealer under the Transaction or any other warrant transaction between Counterparty and Dealer.

(g)             Equity Rights.  Dealer acknowledges and agrees that this Confirmation is not intended to convey to it rights with respect to the Transaction that are senior to the claims of common stockholders in the event of Counterparty’s bankruptcy.  For the avoidance of doubt, the parties agree that the preceding sentence shall not apply at any time other than during Counterparty’s bankruptcy to any claim arising as a result of a breach by Counterparty of any of its obligations under this Confirmation or the Agreement.  For the avoidance of doubt, the parties acknowledge that the obligations of Counterparty under this Confirmation are not secured by any collateral that would otherwise secure the obligations of Counterparty herein under or pursuant to any other agreement.

 

(h)             Amendments to Equity Definitions.  The following amendments shall be made to the Equity Definitions:

 

(i)            The first sentence of Section 11.2(c) of the Equity Definitions, prior to clause (A) thereof, is hereby amended to read as follows: ‘(c) If “Calculation Agent Adjustment” is specified as the Method of Adjustment in the related Confirmation of a Share Option Transaction, then following the announcement or occurrence of any Potential Adjustment Event, the Calculation Agent will determine whether such Potential Adjustment Event has an effect on the theoretical value of the relevant Shares or options on the Shares and, if so, will (i) make appropriate adjustment(s), if any, to any one or more of:’ and, the portion of such sentence immediately preceding clause (ii) thereof is hereby amended by deleting the words “diluting or concentrative” and the words “(provided that no adjustments will be made to account solely for changes in volatility, expected dividends, stock loan rate or liquidity relative to the relevant Shares)” and replacing such latter phrase with the words “(and, for the avoidance of doubt, adjustments may be made to account solely for changes in volatility, expected dividends, stock loan rate or liquidity relative to the relevant Shares)”;

 

(ii)           Sections 11.2(a) and 11.2(e)(vii) of the Equity Definitions are hereby amended by deleting the words “a diluting or concentrative” and, in the case of Section 11.2(e)(vii), replacing them with “an economic” and, in each case, adding the phrase “or options on the Shares” at the end of the sentence;

 

(iii)          Section 12.7(b) of the Equity Definitions is hereby amended by deleting the words “(and in any event within five Exchange Business Days) by the parties after” appearing after the words “agreed promptly” and replacing with the words “by the parties on or prior to”;

 

(iv)          Section 12.9(b)(iv) of the Equity Definitions is hereby amended by (A) deleting (1) subsection (A) in its entirety, (2) the phrase “or (B)” following subsection (A) and (3) the phrase “in each case” in subsection (B); (B) replacing “will lend” with “lends” in subsection (B); and (C) deleting the phrase “neither the Non-Hedging Party nor the Lending Party lends Shares in the amount of the Hedging Shares or” in the penultimate sentence; “Lending Party” means a third party that is not the Counterparty or an affiliate of the Counterparty that Dealer considers to be an acceptable counterparty (acting in good faith and in a reasonable manner in light of (x) other transactions that Dealer (or its agent or affiliate) may have entered into with such party and (y) any legal, regulatory or self-regulatory requirements or related policies and procedures (whether or not such requirements or related policies and procedures are imposed by law or have been voluntarily adopted by Dealer) that apply generally to transactions of a nature and kind similar to the transactions contemplated with such party); and

 

(v)           Section 12.9(b)(v) of the Equity Definitions is hereby amended by (A) adding the word “or” immediately before subsection “(B)” and deleting the comma at the end of subsection (A); and (B)(1) deleting subsection (C) in its entirety, (2) deleting the word “or” immediately preceding subsection (C), (3) replacing in the penultimate sentence the words “either party” with “the Hedging Party” and (4) deleting clause (X) in the final sentence.

 

(i)                Transfer and Assignment.  Dealer may transfer or assign its rights and obligations hereunder and under the Agreement, in whole or in part, at any time without the consent of Counterparty.

 

(j)                Disclosure.  Effective from the date of commencement of discussions concerning the Transaction, Counterparty and each of its employees, representatives, or other agents may disclose to any and all persons, without limitation of any kind, the tax treatment and tax structure of the Transaction and all

 

20











 

materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that are provided to Counterparty relating to such tax treatment and tax structure.

 

(k)           Additional Termination Events.  The occurrence of any of the following shall constitute an Additional Termination Event with respect to which the Transaction shall be the sole Affected Transaction and Counterparty shall be the sole Affected Party and Dealer shall be the party entitled to designate an Early Termination Date pursuant to Section 6(b) of the Agreement and to determine the amount payable pursuant to Section 6(e) of the Agreement; provided that with respect to any Additional Termination Event, Dealer may choose to treat part of the Transaction as the sole Affected Transaction, and, upon the termination of the Affected Transaction, a Transaction with terms identical to those set forth herein except with a Number of Warrants equal to the unaffected number of Warrants shall be treated for all purposes as the Transaction, which shall remain in full force and effect:

 

(i)             Dealer reasonably determines that it is advisable to terminate a portion of the Transaction so that Dealer’s related hedging activities will comply with applicable securities laws, rules or regulations or related policies and procedures of Dealer (whether or not such requirements, policies or procedures are imposed by law or have been voluntarily adopted by Dealer), or Dealer, despite using commercially reasonable efforts, is unable or reasonably determines that it is impractical or illegal to hedge its obligations pursuant to this Transaction in the public market without registration under the Securities Act or as a result of any legal, regulatory or self-regulatory requirements;

 

(ii)            at any time at which any Excess Ownership Position occurs, Dealer, in its discretion, is unable to effect a transfer or assignment to a third party of the Transaction or any other transaction between the parties after using its commercially reasonable efforts on pricing and terms and within a time period reasonably acceptable to Dealer such that an Excess Ownership Position no longer exists; provided that Dealer shall treat only that portion of the Transaction as the Affected Transaction as necessary so that such Excess Ownership Position would no longer exist following the resulting partial termination of the Transaction (after taking into account commercially reasonable adjustments to Dealer’s commercially reasonable Hedge Positions from such partial termination);

 

(iii)           a “person” or “group” (within the meaning of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act), other than Counterparty or its wholly-owned subsidiaries, becomes the direct or indirect ultimate “beneficial owner,” as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act, of the common equity of Counterparty representing more than 50.0% of the voting power of such common equity;

 

(iv)          (1) any sale, lease or other transfer, in one transaction or a series of transactions, of all or substantially all of the assets of Counterparty and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, to any person; or (2) any transaction or series of related transactions in connection with which (whether by means of merger, consolidation, share exchange, combination, reclassification, recapitalization, acquisition, liquidation or otherwise) all of the Shares are exchanged for, converted into, acquired for, or constitutes solely the right to receive, other securities, cash or other property;

 

provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, any transaction or event set forth in the immediately preceding clause (iv) shall not constitute an Additional Termination Event if (x) at least 90% of the consideration received or to be received by holders of the Shares (excluding cash payments for fractional Shares or pursuant to dissenters rights) in connection with the transaction or transactions that would otherwise constitute an Additional Termination Event pursuant to clause (iv) of this Section 8(k) consists of shares of common stock listed on any of The New York Stock Exchange, The NASDAQ Global Select Market or The NASDAQ Global Market (or any of their respective successors) or that will be so listed when issued or exchanged in connection with such transaction or transactions, and (y) following such transaction or transactions, the Shares will consist of such consideration, excluding cash payments for fractional shares.  For the avoidance of doubt, an event that is not considered an Additional Termination Event pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence shall not be an Additional Termination Event solely because such event could also be described by clause (iii) above; or

 

21











 

(v)           holders of Shares approve any plan or proposal for Counterparty’s liquidation or dissolution (other than in a transaction described in (iv) above).

 

(l)            Early Unwind.  In the event the sale by Counterparty of the Firm Securities (defined under the Purchase Agreement) is not consummated pursuant to the Purchase Agreement for any reason by the close of business in New York on November 1, 2019 (or such later date as agreed upon by the parties) (November 1, 2019 or such later date being the “Early Unwind Date”), the Transaction shall automatically terminate (the “Early Unwind”) on the Early Unwind Date and (i) the Transaction and all of the respective rights and obligations of Dealer and Counterparty thereunder shall be cancelled and terminated and (ii) Counterparty shall pay to Dealer an amount in cash equal to the aggregate amount of costs and expenses relating to the unwinding of Dealer’s hedging activities in respect of the Transaction (including market losses incurred in reselling any Shares purchased by Dealer or its affiliates in connection with such hedging activities, unless Counterparty agrees to purchase any such Shares at the cost at which Dealer purchased such Shares).  Following such termination, cancellation and payment, each party shall be released and discharged by the other party from, and agrees not to make any claim against the other party with respect to, any obligations or liabilities of either party arising out of, and to be performed in connection with, the Transaction either prior to or after the Early Unwind Date.  Dealer and Counterparty represent and acknowledge to the other that upon an Early Unwind and following the payment referred to above, all obligations with respect to the Transaction shall be deemed fully and finally discharged.

 

(m)          No Netting and Set-off.  The provisions of Section 2(c) of the Agreement shall not apply to the Transaction.  Each party waives any and all rights it may have to set-off delivery or payment obligations it owes to the other party under the Transaction against any delivery or payment obligations owed to it by the other party, whether arising under the Agreement, under any other agreement between parties hereto, by operation of law or otherwise.

 

(n)           Delivery of Cash.  For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Confirmation shall be interpreted as requiring the Counterparty to deliver cash in respect of the settlement of the Transaction, except in circumstances where the required cash settlement thereof is permitted for classification of the contract as equity by ASC 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging — Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity, as in effect on the relevant Trade Date (including, without limitation, where the Counterparty so elects to deliver cash or fails timely to elect to deliver Shares or Share Termination Delivery Property in respect of such settlement).

 

(o)           Agreements and Acknowledgements Regarding Hedging. Counterparty understands, acknowledges and agrees that: (A) at any time on and prior to the last Expiration Date, Dealer and its affiliates may buy or sell Shares or other securities or buy or sell options or futures contracts or enter into swaps or other derivative securities in order to adjust its hedge position with respect to the Transaction;  (B) Dealer and its affiliates also may be active in the market for Shares other than in connection with hedging activities in relation to the Transaction; (C) Dealer shall make its own determination as to whether, when or in what manner any hedging or market activities in securities of Counterparty shall be conducted and shall do so in a manner that it deems appropriate to hedge its price and market risk with respect to the VWAP Prices; (D) any market activities of Dealer and its affiliates with respect to Shares may affect the market price and volatility of Shares, as well as the VWAP Prices, each in a manner that may be adverse to Counterparty; and (E) the Transaction is a derivatives transaction in which it has granted Dealer an option, and Dealer may purchase shares for its own account at an average price that may be greater than, or less than, the price paid by Counterparty under the terms of the Transaction.

 

(p)           Wall Street Transparency and Accountability Act.  In connection with Section 739 of the Wall Street Transparency and Accountability Act of 2010 (the “WSTAA”), the parties hereby agree that neither the enactment of the WSTAA (or any statute containing any legal certainty provision similar to Section 739 of the WSTAA) or any regulation under the WSTAA (or any such statute), nor any requirement under the WSTAA (or any statute containing any legal certainty provision similar to Section 739 of the WSTAA) or an amendment made by the WSTAA (or any such statute), shall limit or otherwise impair either party’s otherwise applicable rights to terminate, renegotiate, modify, amend or supplement this Confirmation or the Agreement, as applicable, arising from a termination event, force majeure, illegality, increased costs, regulatory change or similar event under this Confirmation, the Equity 

 

22











 

Definitions incorporated herein, or the Agreement (including, but not limited to, rights arising from Change in Law, Hedging Disruption, Increased Cost of Hedging or Illegality).

 

(q)           Governing Law.  THE AGREEMENT, THIS CONFIRMATION AND ALL MATTERS ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH THE AGREEMENT AND THIS CONFIRMATION SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (WITHOUT REFERENCE TO ITS CHOICE OF LAW DOCTRINE, OTHER THAN TITLE 14 OF ARTICLE 5 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW).

 

(r)            Amendment.  This Confirmation and the Agreement may not be modified, amended or supplemented, except in a written instrument signed by Counterparty and Dealer.

 

(s)            Counterparts. This Confirmation may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

 

(t)            Tax Matters.

 

(i)            Withholding Tax imposed on payments to non-US counterparties under the United States Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act.  “Indemnifiable Tax” as defined in Section 14 of the Agreement, shall not include any withholding tax imposed or collected pursuant to Sections 1471 through 1474 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), any current or future regulations or official interpretations thereof, any agreement entered into pursuant to Section 1471(b) of the Code, or any fiscal or regulatory legislation, rules or practices adopted pursuant to any intergovernmental agreement entered into in connection with the implementation of such Sections of the Code (a “FATCA Withholding Tax”). For the avoidance of doubt, a FATCA Withholding Tax is a Tax the deduction or withholding of which is required by applicable law for the purposes of Section 2(d) of the Agreement.

 

(ii)           HIRE Act.  To the extent that either party to the Agreement with respect to this Transaction is not an adhering party to the ISDA 2015 Section 871(m) Protocol published by the International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. on November 2, 2015 and available at www.isda.org, as may be amended, supplemented, replaced or superseded from time to time (the “871(m) Protocol”), the parties agree that the provisions and amendments contained in the Attachment to the 871(m) Protocol are incorporated into and apply to the Agreement with respect to this Transaction as if set forth in full herein. The parties further agree that, solely for purposes of applying such provisions and amendments to the Agreement with respect to this Transaction, references to “each Covered Master Agreement” in the 871(m) Protocol will be deemed to be references to the Agreement with respect to this Transaction, and references to the “Implementation Date” in the 871(m) Protocol will be deemed to be references to the Trade Date of this Transaction.

 

(iii)          Tax documentation. Counterparty shall provide to Dealer a valid U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-9, or any successor thereto, (i) on or before the date of execution of this Confirmation, (ii) upon reasonable request of Dealer and (iii) promptly upon learning that any such tax form previously provided by Counterparty has become obsolete or incorrect.  Dealer shall provide to Counterparty a valid U.S. Internal Revenue Service  Form W-9, or any successor thereto, (i) on or before the date of execution of this Confirmation, (ii) upon reasonable request of Counterparty and (iii) promptly upon learning that any such tax form previously provided by Dealer has become obsolete or incorrect.

 

(iv)          Tax Representations.  For the purpose of Section 3(f) of the Agreement, Counterparty is a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes and is organized under the laws of the State of Iowa. Counterparty represents to Dealer that for U.S. federal income tax purposes it is a “U.S. person” (as that term is used in section 1.1441-4(a)(3)(ii) of the United States Treasury Regulations) and an “exempt recipient” (as that term is used in section 1.6049-4(c)(1) of the United States Treasury Regulations).  Dealer represents to Counterparty that for U.S. federal income tax purposes it is a “U.S. person” (as that term is used in section 1.1441-4(a)(3)(ii) of the United States Treasury Regulations) and an “exempt recipient” (as that term is used in section 1.6049-4(c)(1) of the United States Treasury Regulations).

(u)           QFC Stay Provisions.

 

(i)            (A) In the event that Dealer becomes subject to a proceeding under (i) the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder or (ii) Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder (a “U.S. Special Resolution Regime”) the transfer from Dealer of this Confirmation, and any interest and obligation in or under, and any property securing, this Confirmation, will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this Confirmation, and any interest and obligation in or under, and any property securing, this Confirmation were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. (B) In the event that Dealer or an Affiliate  becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, any Default Rights (as defined in 12 C.F.R. §§ 252.81, 47.2 or 382.1, as applicable (“Default Right”)) under this Confirmation that may be exercised against Dealer are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this Confirmation were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.

 

(ii)           Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Confirmation, the parties expressly acknowledge and agree that: (A) Counterparty shall not be permitted to exercise any Default Right with respect to this Confirmation or any Affiliate Credit Enhancement that is related, directly or indirectly, to an Affiliate of Dealer becoming subject to receivership, insolvency, liquidation, resolution, or similar proceeding (an “Insolvency Proceeding”), except to the extent that the exercise of such Default Right would be permitted under the provisions of 12 C.F.R. 252.84, 12 C.F.R. 47.5 or 12 C.F.R. 382.4, as applicable; and (B) Nothing in this Confirmation shall prohibit the transfer of any Affiliate Credit Enhancement, any interest or obligation in or under such Affiliate Credit Enhancement, or any property securing such Affiliate Credit Enhancement, to a transferee upon or following an Affiliate of Dealer becoming subject to an Insolvency Proceeding, unless the transfer would result in the Counterparty being the beneficiary of such Affiliate Credit Enhancement in violation of any law applicable to the Counterparty.

 

(iii)          If Counterparty has previously adhered to, or subsequently adheres to, the ISDA 2018 U.S. Resolution Stay Protocol as published by the International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. as of July 31, 2018 (the “ISDA U.S. Protocol”), the terms of such protocol shall be incorporated into and form a part of this Confirmation and the terms of the ISDA U.S. Protocol shall supersede and replace the terms of this Section 8(u). For purposes of incorporating the ISDA U.S. Protocol, Dealer shall be deemed to be a Regulated Entity, Counterparty shall be deemed to be an Adhering Party, and this Confirmation shall be deemed to be a Protocol Covered Agreement. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this paragraph shall have the meanings given to them in the ISDA U.S. Protocol.

 

(iv)          Dealer and Counterparty agree that to the extent there are any outstanding “in-scope QFCs,” as defined in 12 C.F.R. § 252.82(d), that are not excluded under 12 C.F.R. § 252.88, between Dealer and Counterparty that do not otherwise comply with the requirements of 12 C.F.R. § 252.2, 252.81—8 (each such agreement, a “Preexisting In-Scope Agreement”), then each such Preexisting In-Scope Agreement is hereby amended to include the foregoing provisions in this Section 8(u), with references to “this Confirmation” being understood to be references to the applicable Preexisting In-Scope Agreement.

 

For purposes of this Section 8(u):

 

“Affiliate” is defined in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. § 1841(k).

 

“Credit Enhancement” means any credit enhancement or credit support arrangement in support of the obligations of Dealer under or with respect to this Confirmation, including any guarantee, collateral arrangement (including any pledge, charge, mortgage or other security interest in collateral or title transfer arrangement), trust or similar arrangement, letter of credit, transfer of margin or any similar arrangement.

9.     Arbitration:

 

(a)           All parties to this Confirmation are giving up the right to sue each other in court, including the right to a trial by jury, except as provided by the rules of the arbitration forum in which a claim is filed.

 

(b)           Arbitration awards are generally final and binding; a party’s ability to have a court reverse or modify an arbitration award is very limited.

 

(c)           The ability of the parties to obtain documents, witness statements and other discovery is generally more limited in arbitration than in court proceedings.

 

(d)           The arbitrators do not have to explain the reason(s) for their award.

 

(e)           The panel of arbitrators will typically include a minority of arbitrators who were or are affiliated with the securities industry, unless Counterparty is a member of the organization sponsoring the arbitration facility, in which case all arbitrators may be affiliated with the securities industry.

 

(f)            The rules of some arbitration forums may impose time limits for bringing a claim in arbitration.  In some cases, a claim that is ineligible for arbitration may be brought in court.

 

(g)           The rules of the arbitration forum in which the claim is filed, and any amendments thereto, shall be incorporated into this Confirmation.

 

(h)           Counterparty agrees that any and all controversies that may arise between Counterparty and Dealer, including, but not limited to, those arising out of or relating to the Agreement or the Transaction hereunder, shall be determined by arbitration conducted before FINRA Dispute Resolution (“FINRA-DR”), or, if FINRA-DR declines to hear the matter, before the American Arbitration Association, in accordance with their arbitration rules then in force.  The award of the arbitrator shall be final, and judgment upon the award rendered may be entered in any court, state or federal, having jurisdiction.

 

(i)            No person shall bring a putative or certified class action to arbitration, nor seek to enforce any pre-dispute arbitration agreement against any person who has initiated in court a putative class action or who is a member of a putative class who has not opted out of the class with respect to any claims encompassed by the putative class action until: (i) the class certification is denied; (ii) the class is decertified; or (iii) Counterparty is excluded from the class by the court.

 

(j)            Such forbearance to enforce an agreement to arbitrate shall not constitute a waiver of any rights under this Confirmation except to the extent stated herein.

Counterparty hereby agrees (a) to check this Confirmation carefully and immediately upon receipt so that errors or discrepancies can be promptly identified and rectified and (b) to confirm that the foregoing (in the exact form provided by Dealer) correctly sets forth the terms of the agreement between Dealer and Counterparty with respect to the Transaction, by manually signing this Confirmation or this page hereof as evidence of agreement to such terms and providing the other information requested herein and immediately returning an executed copy to Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, Equity Derivatives Documentation Department, Facsimile No. (212) 428-1980/83.
