Section 6(d)(ii) and 6(e) of the
Agreement, as applicable (the
Share Termination Payment
Date), in satisfaction of the
Payment Obligation in the manner
reasonably requested by Party B
free of payment.Share Termination Delivery
Property:
    
    A number of Share Termination
Delivery Units, as calculated by
the Calculation Agent, equal to
the Payment Obligation divided by
the Share Termination Unit Price.
The Calculation Agent shall
adjust the Share Termination
Delivery Property by replacing
any fractional portion of a
security therein with an amount
of cash equal to the value of
such fractional security based on
the values used to calculate the
Share Termination Unit Price.Share Termination Unit Price:
    
    The value to Party A of property
contained in one Share
Termination Delivery Unit on the
date such Share Termination
Delivery Units are to be
delivered as Share Termination
Delivery Property, as determined
by the Calculation Agent in its
discretion by commercially
reasonable means and notified by
the Calculation Agent to Party A
at the time of notification of
the Payment Obligation.Share Termination Delivery
Unit:
    
    In the case of a Termination
Event or Event of Default, one
Share or, in the case of
Nationalization, Insolvency or
Merger Event or Tender Offer, a
unit consisting of the number or
amount of each type of property
received by a holder of one Share
(without consideration of any
requirement to pay cash or other
consideration in lieu of
fractional amounts of any
securities) in such
Nationalization, Insolvency,
Merger Event or Tender Offer, as
determined by the Calculation
Agent. If a Share Termination
Delivery Unit consists of
property other than cash or New
Shares and if Party B provides

irrevocable written notice to the
Calculation Agent on or prior to
the Merger Date that it elects to
have Party A deliver cash, New
Shares or a combination thereof
(in such proportion as Party B
designates) in lieu of such other
property, the Calculation Agent
will replace such property with
cash, New Shares or a combination
thereof as components of a Share
Termination Delivery Unit in such
amounts, as determined by the
Calculation Agent in its
discretion by commercially
reasonable means, as shall have a
value equal to the value of the
property so replaced. If such
Nationalization, Insolvency,
Merger Event or Tender Offer
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:
    
    ApplicableOther applicable provisions:
    
    If the Transaction is to be Share
Termination Settled, the
provisions of Sections 9.8, 9.9,
9.10, 9.11 and 9.12 (as modified
above) of the Equity Definitions
will be applicable, as if
Physical Settlement applied to
the Transaction; providedthat
all references to Shares shall
be read as references to Share
Termination Delivery Units and
the representations and
agreements 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 Party B
is the issuer of the Shares.
Share Termination Settled in
relation to a Transaction means
that Share Termination Settlement
is applicable to the Transaction.Regulatory Provisions:
    
    (a) Party B represents and
warrants that it has received and
read and understands the Notice
of Regulatory Treatment and the
OTC Option Risk Disclosure
Statement.(b) The Agent will furnish Party
B upon written request a
statement as to the source and
amount of any remuneration
received or to be received by the
Agent in connection with the
Transaction evidenced hereby.Transfer:
    
    Notwithstanding Section 7 of the
Agreement, Party A may assign its
rights and obligations under the
Transaction, in whole and not in
part, to any Affiliate of Lehman
Brothers Holdings Inc.
(Holdings) whose obligations
hereunder are guaranteed by
Holdings, in favor of Party B, of
the obligations of such
Affiliate.

##### 



If Party A, in its sole
discretion, determines that its
beneficial ownership at any
time (within the meaning of
Section 13 of the Exchange Act
and rules promulgated thereunder)
exceeds 8.0% or more of Party Bs
outstanding Shares; and, in its
sole discretion, Party A is
unable after its commercially
reasonable efforts to effect a
transfer or assignment on pricing
terms and in a time period
reasonably acceptable to Party A
that would reduce its beneficial
ownership to 7.5%; Party A may
designate any Exchange Business
Day as an Early Termination Date
with respect to a portion (the
Terminated Portion) of the
Transaction, such that its
beneficial ownership following
such partial termination will be
equal to or less than 7.5%. In
the event that Party A so
designates an Early Termination
Date with respect to a portion of
the Transaction, a payment shall
be made pursuant to Section 6 of
the Agreement as if (i) an Early
Termination Date had been
designated in respect of
Transaction having terms
identical to the Transaction and
Numbers of Options equal to the
Terminated Portion, (ii) Party B
shall be the sole Affected Party
with respect to such partial
termination and (iii) such
Transaction shall be the only
Terminated Transaction.Staggered Settlement:
    
    Party A may, by notice to Party B
on or prior to any Settlement
Date (a Nominal Settlement
Date), elect to deliver any
Shares required to be delivered
by it on two or more dates (each,
a Staggered Settlement Date) as
follows:(i)   in such notice, Party A will
specify to Party B the related
Staggered Settlement Dates (the
first of which will be such
Nominal Settlement Date and the
last of which will be no later
than the twentieth
(20th) Exchange
Business Day following such
Nominal Settlement Date) and the
number of Shares that it will
deliver on each Staggered
Settlement Date;(ii)  the aggregate number of
Shares that Party A will deliver
to Party B hereunder on all such
Staggered Settlement Dates will
equal the number of Shares that
Party A would otherwise be
required to deliver on such
Nominal Settlement Date; and(iii) if the Physical Settlement
terms set forth above were to
apply on such Nominal Settlement
Date, then the Physical
Settlement terms will apply on
each Staggered Settlement Date,
except that the related Shares to
be delivered by Party A will be
allocated among such Staggered
Settlement Dates as specified by
Party A in the notice referred to in

clause (i) above and Party B
shall pay the Settlement Amount
for those Shares on the Nominal
Settlement Date.Set-Off and Netting:
    
    Party A agrees not to set-off or
net amounts due from Party B with
respect to the Transaction
hereunder against amounts due
from Party A to Party B under
obligations other than Equity
Contracts. Section 2(c) of the
Agreement as it applies to
payments due with respect to the
Transaction hereunder shall
remain in effect and is not
subject to the first sentence of
this provision.Upon the occurrence of an Event
of Default or Termination Event
with respect to a party who is
the Defaulting Party or the
Affected Party (X), the other
party (Y) will have the right
(but not be obliged) without
prior notice to X or any other
person to set-off or apply any
obligation of X under an Equity
Contract owed to Y (or any
Affiliate of Y) (whether or not
matured or contingent and whether
or not arising under the
Agreement, and regardless of the
currency, place of payment or
booking office of the obligation)
against any obligation of Y (or
any Affiliate of Y) under an
Equity Contract owed to X
(whether or not matured or
contingent and whether or not
arising under the Agreement, and
regardless of the currency, place
of payment or booking office of
the obligation). Y will give
notice to the other party of any
set-off effected under this
paragraph.Equity Contract shall mean for
purposes of this paragraph any
transaction relating to Shares
between X and Y (or any Affiliate
of Y) that qualifies as equity
under applicable accounting
rules.Amounts (or the relevant portion
of such amounts) subject to
set-off may be converted by Y
into the Termination Currency at
the rate of exchange at which
such party would be able, acting
in a reasonable manner and in
good faith, to purchase the
relevant amount of such currency.If any obligation is
unascertained, Y may in good
faith estimate that obligation
and set-off in respect of the
estimate, subject to the relevant
party accounting to the other
when the obligation is
ascertained.Nothing in this section shall be
effective to create a charge or
other security interest. This
section shall be without
prejudice and in addition to any
right of set-off, combination of
accounts, lien or other right to
which any party is at any time
otherwise entitled (whether by

otherwise).Equity Rights:
    
    Party A 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 Party Bs bankruptcy. For the
avoidance of doubt, the parties
agree that the preceding sentence
shall not apply at any time other
than during Party Bs bankruptcy
to any claim arising as a result
of a breach by Party B of any of
its obligations under this
Confirmation or the Agreement.
For the avoidance of doubt, the
parties acknowledge that this
Confirmation is not secured by
any collateral that would
otherwise secure the obligations
of Party B herein under or
pursuant to any other agreement.No Collateral:
    
    No collateral is required to be
posted by Party B in respect of
the Transaction.Bankruptcy Code Provisions:
    
    Each of Party A and Party B
agrees and acknowledges that
Party A is a swap participant
and/or financial participant
within the meaning of Sections
101(53C) 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 (i) 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 is a settlement
payment, as such term is defined
in Section 741(8) of the
Bankruptcy Code, and (ii) a swap
agreement, as such term is
defined in Section 101(53B) of
the Bankruptcy Code, with respect
to which each payment and
delivery hereunder is a
transfer, as such term is
defined in Section 101(54) of the
Bankruptcy Code, and (B) that
Party A is entitled to the
protections afforded by, among
other sections, Sections
362(b)(6), 362(b)(17), 546(e),
546(g), 555 and 560 of the
Bankruptcy Code.Early Unwind:
    
    In the event the sale of the
Convertible Notes by the Issuer
is not consummated with the
initial purchasers for any
reason, other than as a result of
a breach by Party A, by the close
of business in New York on July
2, 2008 (or such later date as
agreed upon by the parties) (July
2, 2008 or such later date as
agreed upon being the Early
Unwind Date), Party B shall have
the right to elect that the
Transaction shall terminate (the
Early Unwind), on the Early
Unwind Date and:(A) if Party B makes the election
in the preceding sentence, (i)

respective rights and obligations
of Party A and Party B under the

Transaction shall be cancelled
and terminated and (ii) 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 the other party
arising out of and to be
performed in connection with the
Transaction either prior to or
after the Early Unwind Date;
provided,that if the sale of the
Convertible Notes is not
consummated for a reason other
than a breach by the initial
purchasers, that Party B shall
reimburse the costs and expenses
(including market losses)
relating to reselling those
Shares to unwind its hedge
positions, and will assume, or
reimburse the cost of unwinding,
any and all derivatives entered
into by Party A or one or more of
its affiliates in connection with
hedging the Transaction. The
purchase price paid by Party B
shall be Party As actual cost of
such Shares and derivatives as
Party A informs Party B and shall
be paid in immediately available
funds on the Early Unwind Date.
Party A and Party B represent and
acknowledge to the other that,
subject to the proviso included
in the preceding sentence, upon
an Early Unwind, all obligations
with respect to the Transaction
shall be deemed fully and finally
discharged, or(B) if Party B does not make the
election to terminate in the
preceding sentence, the
Calculation Agent shall amend the
relevant terms (including pricing
terms and adjustment provisions)
of the Transaction to reflect the
corresponding terms and
provisions contained in the final
prospectus related to the
Convertible Notes dated as of
June 26, 2008.Additional Termination Events:
    
    Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in this Confirmation,
(i) upon the occurrence of an
Early Conversion:
 (A) such Early Conversion shall
constitute an Additional
Termination Event hereunder with
respect to a number of Options
equal to the number of the
relevant Exercised Options (the
Affected Number of Options), in
which case (x) the sole Affected
Transaction shall consist of a
transaction identical to the
Transaction except that Number of
Options for such Affected
Transaction shall equal the
Affected Number of Options and
Party B shall be deemed the sole
Affected Party and (y) the
Transaction shall remain in full
force and effect, except that the
Number of Options subject to the
Transaction immediately prior to
the Conversion Date for such
Early Conversion shall as of such

Conversion Date be reduced by the
Affected Number of Options;(B) notwithstanding anything to
the contrary in the Agreement,
Party A shall designate an Early
Termination Date in respect of
such Affected Transaction, which
shall be no earlier than one
Scheduled Trading Day following
the Conversion Date for the
related Early Conversion;(C) notwithstanding anything to
the contrary in the Agreement,
the amount equal to the
difference between (1) the amount
payable in respect of such
Affected Transaction in respect
of each Option that is part of
such Affected Transaction minus
(2) the portion of such amount
that is attributable to the
remaining Installment Premiums
shall equal the lesser of (i) the
amount payable pursuant to
Section 6 of the Agreement in
respect of each Option part of
such Affected Transaction and
(ii) the total value deliverable
by Counterparty in respect of
each $1,000 principal amount of
such Convertible Notes in excess
of $1,000, whether in cash and/or
in Shares; and(C) for the avoidance of doubt,
in determining the amount payable
in respect of such Affected

of the Agreement, the Calculation
Agent shall assume that (x) the
relevant Early Conversion and any
adjustments, agreements,
payments, deliveries or
acquisitions by or on behalf of
Party B leading thereto had not
occurred, (y) no adjustments to
the Conversion Rate have occurred
pursuant to Section 9.04(b) or
Section 9.05(h) of the Indenture
and (z) the corresponding
Convertible Notes remain
outstanding; and
 (ii) if there has occurred an
event of default with respect to
Party B under the terms of the
Convertible Notes as set forth in
Section 9.04(b) or Section
9.05(h) of the Indenture, then
such event of default shall
constitute an Additional
Termination Event applicable to
the Transaction and, with respect
to such event of default (A)
Party B shall be deemed to be the
sole Affected Party and the
Transaction shall be the sole
Affected Transaction and (B)
Party A shall be the party
entitled to designate an Early
Termination Date pursuant to
Section 6(b) of the Agreement.

as it is reasonably necessary,

Expiration Date, the Settlement
Date or any other date of
delivery by Party A, with respect
to some or all of the Options
hereunder, if Party A determines,
in its commercially reasonable
discretion, that such extension
is reasonably necessary or
appropriate to preserve Party As
hedging or hedge unwind activity
hereunder in light of existing
liquidity conditions or to enable
Party A to effect purchases or
sales of Shares in connection
with its hedging or settlement
activity hereunder in a manner
that would, if Party A were Party
B or an affiliated purchaser of
Party B, be in compliance with
applicable legal and regulatory

    Party B hereby agrees that if, in
the good faith reasonable
judgment of Party A upon advice
of outside legal counsel, the

acquired by Party A for the
purpose of hedging its
obligations pursuant to the
Transaction cannot be sold in the
U.S. public market by Party A
without registration under the
Securities Act, Party B shall, at
its election: (i) in order to

that if Party A, in its sole
reasonable discretion, is not
satisfied with access to due
diligence materials, the results
of its due diligence
investigation, or the procedures
and documentation for the
registered offering referred to
above, then clause (ii) or clause
(iii) of this paragraph shall

Scheduled Trading Days prior to

hereunder by such Indemnified
Person, unless such settlement
includes an unconditional release

satisfactory to such Indemnified
Person. If the indemnification
provided for in this paragraph is
unavailable to an Indemnified

then Party B, in lieu of
indemnifying such Indemnified
Person thereunder, shall

liabilities. The remedies
provided for in this paragraph
are not exclusive and shall not
limit any rights or remedies that
