THIS RIGHTS AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is dated
as of August 15, 2014 and is made between INSYS THERAPEUTICS, INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Computershare Trust Company, N.A., as rights agent
(“Rights Agent”). 
 RECITALS 

The Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) has authorized and declared a dividend of one preferred share
purchase right (a “Right”) for each Common Share (as such term is hereinafter defined) outstanding at the Close of Business (as such term is hereinafter defined) on September 1, 2014 (the “Record
Date”), each Right representing the right to purchase one one-hundredth of a Preferred Share (as such term is hereinafter defined), subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 11(o) hereof and upon the terms and subject to the
conditions herein set forth, and has further authorized and directed the issuance of one Right with respect to each Common Share that shall become outstanding between the Record Date and the earliest to occur of the Distribution Date, the Redemption
Date and the Final Expiration Date (as such terms are hereinafter defined); provided, however, that Rights may be issued with respect to Common Shares that shall become outstanding after the Distribution Date and prior to the earlier of the
Redemption Date and the Final Expiration Date in accordance with the provisions of Section 22 hereof. 

AGREEMENT 

Accordingly, in consideration of the premises and the mutual agreements herein set forth, the parties hereby agree as follows: 

SECTION 1. CERTAIN DEFINITIONS. For purposes of this Agreement, the following terms have the meanings
indicated: 
 (a) “Acquiring Person” shall mean any Person who or that, together
with all Affiliates and Associates of such Person, without the prior written approval of the Board, shall be the Beneficial Owner of 15% or more of the Common Shares then outstanding. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) the term “Acquiring
Person” shall not include (i) the Company, (ii) any Subsidiary of the Company, (iii) any employee benefit or compensation plan of the Company or of any Subsidiary of the Company, (iv) any Person holding Common Shares for or
pursuant to the terms of any such employee benefit or compensation plan of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company, (v) an Excluded Person, (vi) a Passive Institutional Investor, subject to the provisions contained in the definition
of “Passive Institutional Investor”, and (B) no Person shall become an “Acquiring Person” (x) as the result of an acquisition of Common Shares by the Company that, by reducing the number of shares outstanding, increases
the proportionate number of shares beneficially owned by such Person to 15% (20% in the case of a Passive Institutional Investor) or more of the Common Shares then outstanding; provided, however, that if a Person shall become the Beneficial
Owner of 15% (20% in the case of a Passive Institutional Investor) or more of the Common Shares then outstanding by reason of share purchases by the Company and shall, following written notice from, or public disclosure 








 
by, the Company of such share purchases by the Company, become the Beneficial Owner of any additional Common Shares without the prior written approval of the Board (other than by means of a
dividend made by the Company on the Common Shares outstanding or pursuant to a split, subdivision or other reclassification of the Common Share undertaken by the Company) and shall then be the Beneficial Owner of more than 15% (20% in the case of a
Passive Institutional Investor) of the Common Shares then outstanding, then such Person shall be deemed to be an “Acquiring Person,” (y) as the result of the acquisition of Common Shares directly from the Company, provided,
however, that if a Person shall become the Beneficial Owner of 15% (20% in the case of a Passive Institutional Investor) or more of the Common Shares then outstanding by reason of share purchases directly from the Company and shall, after that
date, become the Beneficial Owner of any additional Common Shares without the prior written approval of the Board (other than by means of a dividend made by the Company on the Common Shares outstanding or pursuant to a split, subdivision or other
reclassification of the Common Share undertaken by the Company) and shall then beneficially own more than 15% (20% in the case of a Passive Institutional Investor) of the Common Shares then outstanding, then such Person shall be deemed to be an
“Acquiring Person” or (z) if the Board determines in good faith that a Person who would otherwise be an “Acquiring Person,” as defined pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 1(b), has become such
inadvertently, and such Person does not, with such Person’s Affiliates and Associates, become the owner of any additional Common Shares after learning of or having been informed of such Person becoming (save for this clause) an Acquiring
Person, and such Person divests, as promptly as practicable (as determined in good faith by the Board), following receipt of written notice from the Company of such event, of Beneficial Ownership of a sufficient number of Common Shares so that such
Person would no longer be an Acquiring Person, as defined pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 1(b), then such Person shall not be deemed to be an “Acquiring Person” for any purposes of this Agreement; provided,
however, that if such Person shall again become the Beneficial Owner of 15% (20% in the case of a Passive Institutional Investor) or more of the Common Shares then outstanding, such Person shall be deemed an “Acquiring Person,” subject
to the exceptions set forth in this Section 1(b). 
 (b) “Affiliate”
and “Associate” shall have the respective meanings ascribed to such terms in Rule 12b-2 of the General Rules and Regulation under the Exchange Act as in effect on the date of this Agreement; provided,
however, that the limited partners of a limited partnership shall not be deemed to be Associates of such limited partnership solely by virtue of their limited partnership interests. 

(c) “Agreement” shall have the meaning set forth in the first paragraph hereof. 

(d) A Person shall be deemed the “Beneficial Owner” of, and shall be deemed to
“beneficially own,” and shall be deemed to have “Beneficial Ownership” of, any securities: 

(i) that such Person, or any of such Person’s Affiliates or Associates, is deemed to beneficially own within the meaning of Rule
13d-3 of the General Rules and Regulations under the Exchange Act as in effect on the date of this Agreement; 
 (ii) that
such Person or any of such Person’s Affiliates or Associates, has or shares (A) the right to acquire (whether such right is exercisable immediately or only after the 

  
 2 








 
passage of time or upon the satisfaction or occurrence of one or more conditions other than a Distribution Date) pursuant to any agreement, arrangement or understanding, whether or not in writing
(other than customary agreements with and between underwriters and selling group members with respect to a bona fide public offering of securities), or upon the exercise of conversion rights, exchange rights, rights (other than the Rights), warrants
or options, or otherwise; provided, however, that a Person shall not be deemed the Beneficial Owner of, or to beneficially own, securities tendered pursuant to a tender or exchange offer made by or on behalf of such Person or any of such
Person’s Affiliates or Associates until such tendered securities are accepted for purchase or exchange; or (B) the right or power to vote (directly or indirectly) pursuant to any agreement, arrangement or understanding, whether or not in
writing; provided, however, that a Person shall not be deemed the Beneficial Owner of, or to beneficially own, any security if the agreement, arrangement or understanding to vote such security (1) arises solely from a revocable proxy or
consent given to such Person in response to a public proxy or consent solicitation made pursuant to, and in accordance with, the applicable rules and regulations promulgated under the Exchange Act and (2) is not also then reportable on Schedule
13D or 13G under the Exchange Act (or any comparable or successor report); 
 (iii) that are beneficially owned, directly or
indirectly, by any other Person (or an Affiliate or Associate thereof) with which such Person (or any of such Person’s Affiliates or Associates), has (A) any agreement, arrangement or understanding, whether or not in writing (other than
customary agreements with and between underwriters and selling group members with respect to a bona fide public offering of securities), for the purpose of acquiring, holding, voting (except to the extent contemplated by the proviso to
Section 1(d)(ii)(B) hereof) or disposing of any securities of the Company or (B) any agreement, arrangement, or understanding, whether or not in writing, to cooperate in obtaining, changing or influencing the control of the Company; or

 (iv) that are the subject of, or the reference securities for, or that underlie, any Derivative Interest of such Person or any
of such Person’s Affiliates or Associates, with the number of Common Shares deemed Beneficially Owned being the notional or other number of Common Shares (or the maximum number within any range) specified in the documentation evidencing the
Derivative Interest as being subject to be acquired upon the exercise or settlement of the Derivative Interest or as the basis upon which the value or settlement amount of such Derivative Interest is to be calculated in whole or in part or, if no
such number of Common Shares is specified in such documentation, as determined by the Board in its sole discretion to be the number of Common Shares to which the Derivative Interest relates. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) the phrase “then outstanding,” when used with reference to a Person’s Beneficial
Ownership of securities of the Company, shall mean the number of such securities then issued and outstanding together with the number of such securities not then actually issued and outstanding that such Person would be deemed to beneficially own
hereunder and (ii) nothing contained in this Section 1(d) shall cause a Person ordinarily engaged in business as an underwriter of securities to be deemed the “Beneficial Owner” of, or to “beneficially own”, or to have
“Beneficial Ownership” of, any securities acquired or to be acquired in either (A) a bona fide firm underwriting pursuant to an underwriting agreement entered into by the Company and such Person or (B) a bona fide offering of
securities pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act pursuant to a purchase 

  
 3 








 
agreement entered into by the Company and such Person; and (iii) no director or officer of the Company shall be deemed to Beneficially Own securities Beneficially Owned by any other director

 (h) “Common Shares” shall mean the shares of common stock, par value
$0.01 per share, of the Company; provided, however, that, “Common Shares,” when used in this Agreement in connection with a specific reference to any Person other than the Company, shall mean the shares of the class or series of
capital stock (or equity interest) with the greatest voting power of such other Person or, if such other Person is a Subsidiary of another Person, the Person or Persons that ultimately control such first-mentioned Person.

 (s) “Passive Institutional

 6 








 SECTION 3. ISSUE OF RIGHT
CERTIFICATES. 
 (a) Until the earlier of the Close of Business on (i) the tenth
calendar day after the Shares Acquisition Date (or, in the event that the Board determines on or before such tenth calendar day to effect an exchange in accordance with Section 24 and determines in accordance with Section 24(e) that a
later date is advisable, such later date that is not more than 20 days after the Shares Acquisition Date) or (ii) the tenth Business Day (or such later date as may be determined by action of the Board prior to such time as any Person becomes an
Acquiring Person) after the date of the commencement (determined in accordance with Rule 14d-2 under the Exchange Act) by any Person (other than the Company, any Subsidiary of the Company, any employee benefit plan of the Company or of any
Subsidiary of the Company or any Person holding Common Shares for or pursuant to the terms of any such plan) of, or after the first public announcement of the intention of any Person (other than the Company, any Subsidiary of the Company, any
employee benefit plan of the Company or of any Subsidiary of the Company or any Person holding Common Shares for or pursuant to the terms of any such plan) to commence, a tender or exchange offer (which intention to commence remains in effect for
five Business Days after such announcement), the consummation of which would result in any Person becoming an Acquiring Person (including any such date that is after the date of this Agreement and prior to the issuance of the Rights, the earlier of
such dates being herein referred to as the “Distribution Date”), (x) the Rights will be evidenced by the certificates for Common Shares (which certificates shall also be deemed to be Right Certificates) or, in the case
of uncertificated shares, by the balances indicated in the book-entry account system of the transfer agent for the Common Shares (together with a transaction advice with respect to such shares), registered in the names of the holders thereof and not
by separate Right Certificates, and (y) the registered holders of Common Shares shall also be the registered holders of the Rights issued with respect thereto and (z) the Rights (and the right to receive Right Certificates therefor) will
be transferable only in connection with the transfer of Common Shares. As soon as practicable after the Distribution Date, the Company will prepare and execute, and at the written request of the Company, the Rights Agent will countersign, and the
Company will send or cause to be sent (and the Rights Agent will, if requested and provided with all necessary information and documents, at the expense of the Company send) by such means as the Company may select, to each record holder of Common
Shares as of the Close of Business on the Distribution Date, at the address of such holder shown on the records of the Company or transfer agent or registrar for the Common Shares (and if the Rights Agent is not the transfer agent or registrar for
the Common Shares, the Company shall promptly provide such information to the Rights Agent in a form satisfactory to the Rights Agent) a Right Certificate, in substantially the form of EXHIBIT A hereto (a “Right
Certificate”), evidencing one Right for each Common Share so held, subject to the adjustment provisions of Section 11; provided, however, that the Company may implement such procedures as it deems appropriate in its
sole discretion, to minimize the possibility that Rights are sent to Persons for whom the Rights would be null and void under Section 11(a)(ii) hereof. As of and after the Distribution Date, the Rights will be evidenced solely by such Right
Certificates and the Rights will be transferable separately from the transfer of Common Shares. 

  
 7 








 The Company shall promptly notify the Rights Agent in writing upon the occurrence of the
Distribution Date and, if such notification is given orally, the Company shall confirm same in writing on or prior to the Business Day next following. Until such notice is received by the Rights Agent, the Rights Agent may presume conclusively for
all purposes that the Distribution Date has not occurred. 
 (b) On the Record Date, or as soon as practicable thereafter, the
Company will send (directly or, at the expense of the Company, through the Rights Agent or its transfer agent if the Rights Agent or transfer agent is directed by the Company and provided with all necessary information and documents) a copy of a
Summary of Rights to Purchase Preferred Shares, in substantially the form of EXHIBIT B hereto (the “Summary of Rights”), by first-class, postage-prepaid mail, to each record holder of Common Shares
as of the Close of Business on the Record Date (other than any Acquiring Person or any Associate or Affiliate of any Acquiring Person), at the address of such holder shown on the records of the Company or transfer agent or registrar for Common
Shares. With respect to certificates for Common Shares outstanding as of the Record Date, until the Distribution Date, the Rights will be evidenced by such certificates registered in the names of the holders thereof (or, for shares participating in
the direct registration system, by notations in the respective book entry accounts for the Common Shares). Until the Distribution Date (or the earlier of the Redemption Date and the Final Expiration Date), the surrender for transfer of any
certificate for Common Shares outstanding on the Record Date shall also constitute the transfer of the Rights associated with the Common Shares represented thereby. 

(c) The Company shall cause certificates for Common Shares that become outstanding after the Record Date but prior to the earliest of
the Distribution Date, the Redemption Date or the Final Expiration Date to have impressed on, printed on, written on or otherwise affixed to them substantially the following legend: 

THIS CERTIFICATE ALSO EVIDENCES AND ENTITLES THE HOLDER HEREOF TO CERTAIN RIGHTS AS SET FORTH IN A RIGHTS AGREEMENT BETWEEN
INSYS THERAPEUTICS, INC., A DELAWARE CORPORATION (THE “COMPANY”), AND COMPUTERSHARE TRUST COMPANY, N.A., AS RIGHTS AGENT (THE “RIGHTS AGENT”), DATED AS OF AUGUST 15, 2014, AS AMENDED FROM TIME TO TIME (THE “RIGHTS
AGREEMENT”), THE TERMS OF WHICH ARE HEREBY INCORPORATED HEREIN BY REFERENCE AND A COPY OF WHICH IS ON FILE AT THE PRINCIPAL EXECUTIVE OFFICES OF THE COMPANY. UNDER CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES, AS SET FORTH IN THE RIGHTS AGREEMENT, SUCH RIGHTS WILL BE
EVIDENCED BY SEPARATE CERTIFICATES AND WILL NO LONGER BE EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE. THE COMPANY WILL DELIVER TO THE HOLDER OF THIS CERTIFICATE A COPY OF THE RIGHTS AGREEMENT WITHOUT CHARGE AFTER RECEIPT OF A WRITTEN REQUEST THEREFOR ADDRESSED TO
THE SECRETARY OF THE COMPANY. AS DESCRIBED IN THE RIGHTS AGREEMENT, RIGHTS HELD BY OR ISSUED TO ANY PERSON WHO IS OR BECOMES AN ACQUIRING PERSON OR AN AFFILIATE OR ASSOCIATE THEREOF, (AS DEFINED IN THE RIGHTS AGREEMENT) AND CERTAIN RELATED PERSONS,
WHETHER CURRENTLY HELD BY OR ON BEHALF OF SUCH PERSON OR BY ANY SUBSEQUENT HOLDER, SHALL BECOME NULL AND VOID. 

  
 8 








 With respect to any book-entry Common Shares, a legend substantially similar to such legend shall
be included in statements of holding. With respect to the Common Shares, until the earliest of the Distribution Date, the Redemption Date or the Final Expiration Date, the Rights associated with the Common Shares represented by such certificates
shall be evidenced by such certificates or such book-entry accounts (together with the transaction advice with respect to such shares) alone, and the transfer of any Common Shares, whether by transfer of such certificate or such book-entry shares,
shall also constitute the transfer of the Rights associated with the Common Shares represented thereby. In the event that the Company purchases or acquires any Common Shares after the Record Date but prior to the Distribution Date, any Rights
associated with such Common Shares shall be deemed canceled and retired so that the Company shall not be entitled to exercise any Rights associated with the Common Shares that are no longer outstanding. Notwithstanding this Section 3(c), the
omission of a legend shall not affect the enforceability of any part of this Agreement or the rights of any holder of the Rights. 
 (d)
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Common Shares and Rights (and any securities issuable on their exercise) may be issued and transferred by book-entry and not represented by physical certificates. Where Common Shares and
Rights (and any securities issuable on their exercise) are held in uncertificated form, references in this Agreement to certificates shall be deemed to refer to the notations in the book entry accounts reflecting ownership of such shares and, the
Company shall cooperate in all respects to give effect to the intent of the provisions contained herein. 
 SECTION 4. FORM
OF RIGHT CERTIFICATES. 
 (a) The Right Certificates (and the
form of election to purchase Preferred Shares, the form of assignment and the form of certification to be printed on the reverse thereof) shall be substantially the same as Exhibit A hereto and may have such marks of identification or
designation and such legends, summaries or endorsements printed thereon as the Company may deem appropriate (but which do not affect the rights, duties, liabilities or responsibilities of the Rights Agent) and as are not inconsistent with the
provisions of this Agreement, or as may be required to comply with any applicable law or with any rule or regulation made pursuant thereto or with any rule or regulation of any stock exchange or quotation system on which the Rights may from time to
time be listed, or to conform to usage. Subject to the provisions of Section 7, Section 11 and Section 22 hereof, the Right Certificates shall entitle the holders thereof to purchase such number of one one-hundredths of a Preferred
Share as shall be set forth therein at the Purchase Price, but the number of such one one-hundredths of a Preferred Share and the Purchase Price shall be subject to adjustment as provided herein. 

  
 9 








 (b) Any Right Certificate issued pursuant to Section 3(a) or Section 22 hereof
that represents Rights that are null and void pursuant to the second paragraph of Section 11(a)(ii) hereof and any Right Certificate issued pursuant to Section 6 or Section 11 hereof upon transfer, exchange, replacement or adjustment
of any other Right Certificate referred to in this sentence shall contain (to the extent feasible) substantially the following legend: 

THE RIGHTS REPRESENTED BY THIS RIGHT CERTIFICATE ARE OR WERE BENEFICIALLY OWNED BY A PERSON WHO WAS OR BECAME AN ACQUIRING
PERSON OR AN AFFILIATE OR ASSOCIATE OF AN ACQUIRING PERSON (AS SUCH TERMS ARE DEFINED IN THE RIGHTS AGREEMENT). ACCORDINGLY, THIS RIGHT CERTIFICATE AND THE RIGHTS REPRESENTED HEREBY ARE NULL AND VOID. 

The provisions of Section 11(a)(ii) hereof shall be operative whether or not the foregoing legend is contained on any such Right
Certificate. 
 SECTION 5. COUNTERSIGNATURE AND REGISTRATION. The Right Certificates
shall be executed on behalf of the Company by its Chairman of the Board, its Chief Executive Officer, its President, its Chief Financial Officer, or its General Counsel, either manually or by facsimile signature, and shall be attested by the
Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the Company, either manually or by facsimile signature. The Right Certificates shall be countersigned by the Rights Agent either manually or by facsimile signature and shall not be valid for any purpose unless
so countersigned. In case any officer of the Company who shall have signed any of the Right Certificates shall cease to be such an officer before countersignature by the Rights Agent and issuance and delivery by the Company, such Right Certificates,
nevertheless, may be countersigned by the Rights Agent and issued and delivered by the Company with the same force and effect as though the person who signed such Right Certificates had not ceased to be such an officer; and any Right Certificate may
be signed on behalf of the Company by any person who, at the actual date of the execution of such Right Certificate, shall be a proper officer of the Company to sign such Right Certificate, although at the date of the execution of this Agreement any
such person was not such an officer. 
 Following the Distribution Date, receipt by the Rights Agent of notice to that effect and all other
relevant information referred to on Section 3(a), the Rights Agent will keep or cause to be kept, at its office designated for such purpose, books for registration and transfer of the Right Certificates issued hereunder. Such books shall show
the names and addresses of the respective holders of the Right Certificates, the number of Rights evidenced on its face by each of the Right Certificates, the certificate number of each Right Certificate and the date of each of the Right
Certificates. 
 SECTION 6. TRANSFER, SPLIT UP, COMBINATION AND
EXCHANGE OF RIGHT CERTIFICATES; MUTILATED, DESTROYED, LOST OR STOLEN RIGHT
CERTIFICATES. Subject to the provisions of Section 11(a)(ii), Section 14 and Section 24 hereof, at any time after the Close of Business on the Distribution Date, and at or prior to the Close of
Business on the earlier of the Redemption Date or the Final Expiration Date, any Right Certificate or Right Certificates (other than Right Certificates representing Rights that have become null and void pursuant to Section 11(a)(ii) hereof or
that have been exchanged pursuant to Section 24 hereof) may be transferred, split up, combined or exchanged for another Right Certificate or Right Certificates, entitling the registered holder to purchase a like number of one one-hundredths of
a Preferred Share (or such Common Shares of the Principal Party, if any, as shall be issuable in lieu of such one one-hundredth of a Preferred Share pursuant to Section 13(a) hereof) as the Right Certificate or Right Certificates surrendered
then entitled such holder to purchase. Any registered holder desiring to transfer, split up, combine or exchange any Right Certificate or Right Certificates shall make  

  
 10 








 
such request in writing delivered to the Rights Agent, and shall surrender the Right Certificate or Right Certificates to be transferred, split up, combined or exchanged at the office of the
Rights Agent designated for such purpose. The Right Certificates are transferable only on the registry books of the Rights Agent. Neither the Rights Agent nor the Company shall be obligated to take any action whatsoever with respect to the transfer
of any such surrendered Right Certificate or Right Certificates until the registered holder shall have (i) properly completed and duly executed the certificate contained in the form of assignment set forth on the reverse side of each such Right
Certificate, (ii) provided such additional evidence of the identity of the Beneficial Owner (or former Beneficial Owner) or Affiliates or Associates thereof as the Company or the Rights Agent shall reasonably request and (iii) paid a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or charge that may be imposed in connection with any such transfer. Thereupon the Rights Agent shall, subject to Section 11(a)(ii), Section 14 and Section 24 hereof, countersign and deliver to the Person
entitled thereto a Right Certificate or Right Certificates, as the case may be, as so requested, registered in such name or names as may be designated by the surrendering registered holder. The Rights Agent shall forward any such sum collected by it
to the Company or to such Persons or Persons as the Company shall specify by written notice. 
 Upon receipt by the Company and the Rights
Agent of evidence reasonably satisfactory to them of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of a Right Certificate, and, in case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to them, and, at the Company’s
request, reimbursement to the Company and the Rights Agent of all reasonable expenses incidental thereto, and upon surrender to the Rights Agent and cancellation of the Right Certificate if mutilated, the Company will issue, execute and deliver a
new Right Certificate of like tenor to the Rights Agent for countersignature and delivery to the registered holder in lieu of the Right Certificate so lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated. Without limiting the foregoing, the Company may require the
owner of any lost, stolen or destroyed Right Certificate, or his legal representative, to give the Company a bond sufficient to indemnify the Company and the Rights Agent against any claim that may be made against it on account of the alleged loss,
theft or destruction of any such Right Certificate or the issuance of any such new Right Certificate. 
 SECTION 7. EXERCISE
OF RIGHTS; PURCHASE PRICE; EXPIRATION DATE OF RIGHTS. 

(a) The registered holder of any Right Certificate may exercise the Rights evidenced thereby (except as otherwise provided herein) in
whole or in part at any time after the Distribution Date upon surrender of the Right Certificate, with the form of election to purchase on the reverse side thereof properly completed and duly executed, to the Rights Agent at the office of the Rights
Agent designated for such purpose, together with payment of the Purchase Price in cash, or by certified check, cashier’s check, bank draft or money order payable to the order of the Company for each one one-hundredth of a Preferred Share (or
such other number of shares or other securities) as to which the Rights are exercised, prior to the earliest of (i) the Close of Business on August 15, 2024 (the “Final Expiration Date”), (ii) the time at which
the Rights are redeemed as provided in Section 23 hereof (the “Redemption Date”), or (iii) the time at which such Rights are exchanged as provided in Section 24 hereof. Except for those provisions herein which
expressly survive the termination of this Agreement, this Agreement shall terminate at such time as the Rights are no longer exercisable hereunder. 

  
 11 








 (b) The purchase price for each one one-hundredth of a
Preferred Share pursuant to the exercise of a Right shall initially be $160 (the “Purchase Price”) and shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as provided in Section 11 and Section 13 hereof and shall be
payable in lawful money of the United States of America in accordance with Section 7(c) below. 
 (c) Upon receipt
of a Right Certificate representing exercisable Rights, with the form of election to purchase properly completed and duly executed, accompanied by payment of the Purchase Price for the shares to be purchased and an amount equal to any applicable tax
or charge required to be paid by the holder of such Right Certificate in accordance with Section 9 hereof, in cash or by certified check, cashier’s check, bank draft or money order payable to the order of the Company, the Rights Agent
shall thereupon promptly (i) (A) requisition from any transfer agent for the Preferred Shares certificates for the number of Preferred Shares to be purchased and the Company hereby irrevocably authorizes its transfer agent to comply with
all such requests, or (B) if the Company, in its sole discretion, shall have elected to deposit the Preferred Shares issuable upon exercise of the Rights hereunder into a depository, and provides notice of such election to the Rights Agent,
requisition from the depositary agent depositary receipts representing such number of one one-hundredths of a Preferred Share as are to be purchased (in which case certificates for the Preferred Shares represented by such receipts shall be deposited
by the transfer agent with the depositary agent) and the Company hereby directs the depositary agent to comply with such request, (ii) when necessary to comply with this Agreement, requisition from the Company the amount of cash to be paid in
lieu of issuance of fractional shares in accordance with Section 14 hereof, (iii) after receipt of such certificates or depositary receipts, cause the same to be delivered to or upon the order of the registered holder of such Right
Certificate, registered in such name or names as may be designated by such holder and (iv) when necessary to comply with this Agreement, after receipt, deliver such cash to or upon the order of the registered holder of such Right Certificate.
In the event that the Company is obligated to issue securities of the Company other than Preferred Shares (including Common Shares) of the Company pursuant to Section 11(a) hereof, the Company will make all arrangements necessary so that such
other securities are available for distribution by the Rights Agent, if and when necessary to comply with this Agreement. 
 In
addition, in the case of an exercise of the Rights by a holder pursuant to Section 11(a)(ii) hereof, the Rights Agent, if requested and provided with all necessary information and documents, shall return such Right Certificate to the registered
holder thereof after imprinting, stamping or otherwise indicating thereon that the rights represented by such Right Certificate no longer include the rights provided by Section 11(a)(ii) hereof, and, if fewer than all the Rights represented by
such Right Certificate were so exercised, the Rights Agent shall indicate on the Right Certificate the number of Rights represented thereby that continue to include the rights provided by Section 11(a)(ii) hereof. 

(d) In case the registered holder of any Right Certificate shall exercise fewer than all the Rights evidenced thereby (other than a
partial exercise of rights pursuant to Section 11(a)(ii) as described in Section 7(c) hereof), a new Right Certificate evidencing Rights equivalent to the Rights remaining unexercised shall be issued by the Rights Agent to the registered
holder of such Right Certificate or to the duly authorized assigns of such holder, subject to the provisions of Section 14 hereof. 

  
 12 








 (e) The Company covenants and agrees that it will cause to be reserved and kept available
out of its authorized and unissued Preferred Shares or any Preferred Shares held in its treasury, the number of Preferred Shares that will be sufficient to permit the exercise in full of all outstanding Rights in accordance with this
Section 7. 
 (f) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, neither the Rights Agent nor the Company
shall be obligated to undertake any action with respect to a registered holder of Rights or other securities upon the occurrence of any purported exercise as set forth in this Section 7 unless such registered holder shall have (i) properly
completed and duly signed the certification following the form of election to purchase set forth on the reverse side of the Right Certificate surrendered for such exercise, (ii) tendered the Purchase Price (and an amount equal to any applicable
tax or charge required to be paid by the holder of such Right Certificate in accordance with Section 9) to the Company in the manner set forth in Section 7(c), and (iii) provided such additional evidence of the identity of the
Beneficial Owner (or former Beneficial Owner) or Affiliates or Associates thereof as the Company or Rights Agent shall reasonably request.  

SECTION 8. CANCELLATION AND DESTRUCTION OF RIGHT
CERTIFICATES. All Right Certificates surrendered for the purpose of exercise, transfer, split up, combination or exchange shall, if surrendered to the Company or to any of its agents, be delivered to the Rights
Agent for cancellation or in canceled form, or, if delivered or surrendered to the Rights Agent, shall be canceled by it, and no Right Certificates shall be issued in lieu thereof except as expressly permitted by any of the provisions of this
Agreement. The Company shall deliver to the Rights Agent for cancellation and retirement, and the Rights Agent shall so cancel and retire, any other Right Certificate purchased or acquired by the Company otherwise than upon the exercise thereof. The
Rights Agent shall deliver all canceled Right Certificates to the Company, or shall, at the written request of the Company, destroy such canceled Right Certificates, and in such case shall deliver a certificate of destruction thereof to the Company.

 SECTION 9. AVAILABILITY OF PREFERRED SHARES. The Company covenants
and agrees that so long as the Preferred Shares (and, after the time a Person becomes an Acquiring Person, Common Shares or any other securities) issuable upon the exercise of the Rights may be listed on any national securities exchange or quotation
system, the Company shall use its best efforts to cause, from and after such time as the Rights become exercisable, all shares reserved for such issuance to be listed on such exchange or quotation system upon official notice of issuance upon such
exercise. 
 The Company covenants and agrees that it will take all such action as may be necessary to ensure that all Preferred Shares (or
Common Shares and other securities, as the case may be) delivered upon exercise of Rights shall, at the time of delivery of the certificates for such Preferred Shares (or Common Shares and other securities, as the case may be) (subject to payment of
the Purchase Price), be duly and validly authorized and issued and fully paid and nonassessable shares or other securities. 
 The Company
further covenants and agrees that it will pay when due and payable any and all taxes and charges that may be payable in respect of the issuance or delivery of the Right Certificates or of any Preferred Shares (or Common Shares and other securities,
as the case may 

  
 13 








 
be) upon the exercise of Rights. The Company shall not, however, be required to pay any tax or charge that may be payable in respect of any transfer or delivery of Right Certificates to a Person
other than, or the issuance or delivery of certificates or depositary receipts for the Preferred Shares in a name other than that of, the registered holder of the Right Certificate evidencing Rights surrendered for exercise or to issue or to deliver
any certificates or depositary receipts for Preferred Shares upon the exercise of any Rights until any such tax or charge shall have been paid (any such tax or charge being payable by the holder of such Right Certificate at the time of surrender) or
until it has been established to the Company’s or the Rights Agent’s satisfaction that no such tax or charge is due. 
 As soon as
practicable after the Distribution Date, the Company shall use its best efforts to: 
 (i) prepare and file a registration statement
under the Securities Act with respect to the securities purchasable upon exercise of the Rights on an appropriate form, will use its best efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective as soon as practicable after such filing and
will use its best efforts to cause such registration statement to remain effective (with a prospectus at all times meeting the requirements of the Securities Act) until the earlier of the Redemption Date and the Final Expiration Date; and

 (ii) take such action as may be appropriate under or necessary to comply with the blue sky laws of such jurisdiction as may be
necessary or appropriate in connection with the exercisability of the Rights. 
 The Company may temporarily suspend, for a period of
time not to exceed ninety (90) days after the Distribution Date, the exercisability of the Rights in order to prepare and file such registration statement and permit it to become effective. Upon any such suspension, the Company shall issue a
public announcement (with prompt written notice thereof to the Rights Agent; and until such written notice is received by the Rights Agent, the Rights Agent may presume conclusively that no such suspension has occurred) stating that the
exercisability of the Rights has been temporarily suspended, as well as a public announcement at such time as the suspension has been rescinded (with prompt written notice thereof to the Rights Agent; and until such written notice is received by the
Rights Agent, the Rights Agent may presume conclusively that such suspension has not been rescinded). In addition, if the Company shall determine that a registration statement is required following the Distribution Date, the Company may temporarily
suspend the exercisability of the Rights until such time as a registration statement has been declared effective. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Rights shall not be exercisable in any jurisdiction if the
requisite qualification in such jurisdiction shall not have been obtained, the exercise thereof shall not be permitted under applicable law, or an effective registration statement is required and shall not have been declared effective or has been
suspended. 
 SECTION 10. PREFERRED SHARES RECORD DATE. Each Person
in whose name any certificate for Preferred Shares or other securities is issued upon the exercise of Rights shall for all purposes be deemed to have become the holder of record of the Preferred Shares or other securities represented thereby on, and
such certificate shall be dated, the date upon which the Right Certificate evidencing such Rights was duly surrendered with the forms of election and 

  
 14 








 
certification properly completed and duly executed and payment of the Purchase Price (and any applicable taxes or charges) was duly made; provided, however, that if the date of such
surrender and payment is a date upon which the Preferred Shares or other securities transfer books of the Company are closed, such Person shall be deemed to have become the record holder of such shares on, and such certificate shall be dated, the
next succeeding Business Day on which the Preferred Shares or other securities transfer books of the Company are open. Prior to the exercise of the Rights evidenced thereby, the holder of a Right Certificate, as such, shall not be entitled to any
rights of a holder of Preferred Shares for which the Rights shall be exercisable, including, without limitation, the right to vote, to receive dividends or other distributions, or to exercise any preemptive rights, and shall not be entitled to
receive any notice of any proceedings of the Company, except as provided herein. 
 SECTION 11. ADJUSTMENT OF
PURCHASE PRICE, NUMBER OF SHARES OR NUMBER OF RIGHTS. The Purchase Price, the number of
Preferred Shares or other securities or assets covered by each Right and the number of Rights outstanding are subject to adjustment from time to time as provided in this Section 11. 

(a) (i) In the event the Company shall at any time after the date of this Agreement (A) declare a dividend on the
Preferred Shares payable in Preferred Shares, (B) subdivide or split the outstanding Preferred Shares, (C) combine or consolidate the outstanding Preferred Shares into a smaller number of Preferred Shares or (D) issue any shares of
its capital stock in a reclassification of the Preferred Shares (including any such reclassification in connection with a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the continuing or surviving entity), except as otherwise provided in this
Section 11(a), the Purchase Price in effect at the time of the record date for such dividend or of the effective date of such subdivision, combination or reclassification, and the number and kind of shares of capital stock issuable upon the
exercise of each Right on such date, shall be proportionately adjusted so that the holder of any Right exercised after such time shall be entitled to receive the aggregate number and kind of shares of capital stock that, if such Right had been
exercised immediately prior to such date and at a time when the Preferred Shares transfer books of the Company were open, such holder would have owned upon such exercise and been entitled to receive by virtue of such dividend, subdivision,
combination or reclassification; provided, however, that in no event shall the consideration to be paid upon the exercise of one Right be less than the aggregate par value of the shares of capital stock of the Company issuable upon exercise
of one Right. If an event occurs that would require an adjustment under both Section 11(a)(i) and Section 11(a)(ii) hereof, the adjustment provided for in this Section 11(a)(i) shall be in addition to, and shall be made prior to any
adjustment required pursuant to Section 11(a)(ii) hereof. 
 (ii) Subject to Section 7 and Section 24 hereof,
at any time after the date of this Agreement, in the event any Person becomes an Acquiring Person, each holder of a Right shall thereafter have a right to receive, upon exercise thereof at a price equal to the then current Purchase Price multiplied
by the number of one one-hundredths of a Preferred Share for which a Right is then exercisable, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and in lieu of Preferred Shares, such number of Common Shares as shall equal the result obtained by
(A) multiplying the then current Purchase Price by the number of one one-hundredths of a Preferred Share for which a Right is then exercisable and dividing that product by (B) 50% of the then current per share market price of the Common
Shares (determined pursuant to Section 11(d) hereof) on the date 

  
 15 








 
such Person became an Acquiring Person; provided, however, that if the transaction that would otherwise give rise to the foregoing adjustment is also subject to the provisions of
Section 13 hereof, then only the provisions of Section 13 hereof shall apply and no adjustment shall be made pursuant to this Section 11(a)(ii). In the event that any Person shall become an Acquiring Person and the Rights shall then
be outstanding, the Company shall not take any action that would eliminate or diminish the benefits intended to be afforded by the Rights. 

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, from and after the time any Person becomes an Acquiring Person, any Rights
beneficially owned by (i) such Acquiring Person or an Associate or Affiliate of such Acquiring Person, (ii) a transferee of such Acquiring Person (or of any such Associate or Affiliate), who becomes a transferee after the Acquiring Person
became such, or (iii) a transferee of such Acquiring Person (or of any such Associate or Affiliate) who becomes a transferee prior to or concurrently with the Acquiring Person’s becoming such and receives such Rights pursuant to either
(A) a transfer (whether or not for consideration) from the Acquiring Person (or of any such Associate or Affiliate) to holders of equity interests in such transferring Person or to any Person with whom the Acquiring Person (or of any such
Associate or Affiliate) has any continuing agreement, arrangement or understanding regarding the transferred Rights or (B) a transfer that the Board has determined is part of a plan, arrangement or understanding that has as a primary purpose or
effect the avoidance of this Section 11(a)(ii), shall become null and void without any further action and no holder of such Rights shall have any rights whatsoever with respect to such Rights, whether under any provision of this Agreement or
otherwise. The Company shall use all reasonable efforts to ensure that the provisions of this Section 11(a)(ii) and Section 4(b) hereof are complied with, but shall have no liability to any holder of Right Certificates or other Person as a
result of the Company’s failure to make any determinations hereunder with respect to an Acquiring Person or its Affiliates, Associates or transferees. No Right Certificate shall be issued at any time upon the transfer of any Rights to an
Acquiring Person whose Rights would be null and void pursuant to the first sentence of this paragraph or any Associate or Affiliate thereof or to any nominee of any of them; and any Right Certificate delivered to the Rights Agent for transfer to any
Person whose Rights would be null and void pursuant to the first sentence of this paragraph shall, upon receipt of written notice directing it to do so, be canceled or any Associate or Affiliate thereof or to any nominee of any of them shall be
cancelled. The Company shall give the Rights Agent written notice of the identity of any such Person, Associate or Affiliate and the nominee of any of the foregoing promptly after it becomes aware of such identity, and the Rights Agent may rely
conclusively on such notice in carrying out its duties under this Agreement. Until such written notice is received by the Rights Agent, the Rights Agent may assume conclusively for all purposes that no such Acquiring Person exists. 

(iii) In lieu of issuing Common Shares in accordance with Section 11(a)(ii) hereof, the Company may, if the Board determines that
such action is necessary or appropriate and not contrary to the interests of holders of Rights, elect to (and, in the event that the Board has not exercised the exchange right contained in Section 24(c) hereof and there are not sufficient
treasury shares and authorized but unissued Common Shares to permit the exercise in full of the Rights in accordance with Section 11(a)(ii) hereof, the Company shall) take all such action as may be necessary to authorize, issue or pay, upon the
exercise of the Rights, cash (including by way of a reduction of the Purchase Price), property, Common Shares, other debt or equity securities (including, without limitation, shares, or units of shares, of preferred stock, such as the


  
 16 








 
Preferred Shares, which the Board has deemed to have essentially the same value or economic rights as shares of Common Stock) or any combination thereof having an aggregate value equal to the
value of the Common Shares that otherwise would have been issuable pursuant to Section 11(a)(ii) hereof, which aggregate value shall be determined by the Board upon consideration of the advice of a nationally recognized investment banking firm
selected by the Board. For purposes of the preceding sentence, the value of the Common Shares shall be determined pursuant to Section 11(d) hereof. Following the Distribution Date, the Board may suspend the exercisability of the Rights for a
period of up to 60 days following the Distribution Date to the extent that the Board has not determined whether to exercise its right of election under this Section 11(a)(iii). In the event of any such suspension, the Company shall issue a
public announcement stating that the exercisability of the Rights has been temporarily suspended. The Company shall promptly notify the Rights Agent in writing upon the occurrence of such suspension, if such notification is given orally, the Company
shall confirm same in writing on or prior to the Business Day next following. Until such notice is received by the Rights Agent, the Rights Agent may presume conclusively that no such suspension has occurred. 

(b) In case the Company shall fix a record date for the issuance of rights, options or warrants to all holders of Preferred Shares
entitling them to subscribe for or purchase Preferred Shares (or shares having the same designations and the powers, preferences and rights, and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions as the Preferred Shares (“Equivalent
Preferred Shares”)) or securities convertible into Preferred Shares or Equivalent Preferred Shares at a price per Preferred Share or Equivalent Preferred Share (or having a conversion price per share, if a security convertible into
Preferred Shares or Equivalent Preferred Shares) less than the then current per share market price of the Preferred Shares on such record date, the Purchase Price to be in effect after such record date shall be determined by multiplying the Purchase
Price in effect immediately prior to such record date by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of Preferred Shares outstanding on such record date plus the number of Preferred Shares that the aggregate offering price of the total
number of Preferred Shares and/or Equivalent Preferred Shares so to be offered (and/or the aggregate initial conversion price of the convertible securities so to be offered) would purchase at such current market price and the denominator of which
shall be the number of Preferred Shares outstanding on such record date plus the number of additional Preferred Shares and/or Equivalent Preferred Shares to be offered for subscription or purchase (or into which the convertible securities so to be
offered are initially convertible); provided, however, that in no event shall the consideration to be paid upon the exercise of one Right be less than the aggregate par value of the shares of capital stock of the Company issuable upon
exercise of one Right. In case such subscription price may be paid in a consideration part or all of which shall be in a form other than cash, the value of such consideration shall be as determined in good faith by the Board, whose determination
shall be described in a written statement filed with the Rights Agent. Preferred Shares owned by or held for the account of the Company shall not be deemed outstanding for the purpose of any such computation. Such adjustment shall be made
successively whenever such a record date is fixed; and in the event that such rights, options or warrants are not so issued, the Purchase Price shall be adjusted to be the Purchase Price that would then be in effect if such record date had not been
fixed. 
 (c) In case the Company shall fix a record date for the making of a distribution to all holders of the Preferred Shares
(including any such distribution made in connection with a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the continuing or surviving entity) of  

  
 17 








 
evidences of indebtedness or assets (other than a regular quarterly cash dividend or a dividend payable in Preferred Shares) or subscription rights or warrants (excluding those referred to in
Section 11(b) hereof), the Purchase Price to be in effect after such record date shall be determined by multiplying the Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such record date by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the then
current per share market price of the Preferred Shares on such record date, less the fair market value (as determined in good faith by the Board, whose determination shall be described in a written statement filed with the Rights Agent) of the
portion of the assets or evidences of indebtedness so to be distributed or of such subscription rights or warrants applicable to one Preferred Share and the denominator of which shall be such current per share market price of the Preferred Shares;
provided, however, that in no event shall the consideration to be paid upon the exercise of one Right be less than the aggregate par value of the shares of capital stock of the Company to be issued upon exercise of one Right. Such adjustments
shall be made successively whenever such a record date is fixed; and in the event that such distribution is not so made, the Purchase Price shall again be adjusted to be the Purchase Price that would then be in effect if such record date had not
been fixed. 
 (d) (i) For the purpose of any computation hereunder, the “current per
share market price” of any security (a “Security” for the purpose of this Section 11(d)(i)) on any date shall be deemed to be the average of the daily closing prices per share of such Security for the 30
consecutive Trading Days immediately prior to, but not including, such date; provided, however, that in the event that the current per share market price of the Security is determined during a period following the
announcement by the issuer of such Security of (A) a dividend or distribution on such Security payable in shares of such Security or securities convertible into such shares, or (B) any subdivision, combination or reclassification of such
Security or securities convertible into such shares and prior to, but not including, the expiration of 30 Trading Days after the ex-dividend date for such dividend or distribution, or the record date for such subdivision, combination or
reclassification, then, and in each such case, the current per share market price shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect the current market price per share equivalent of such Security. The closing price for each day shall be the last sale price,
regular way, or, in case no such sale takes place on such day, the average of the closing bid and asked prices, regular way, in either case as reported in the principal consolidated transaction reporting system with respect to securities listed or
admitted to trading on the New York Stock Exchange or the NASDAQ Stock Market or, if the Security is not listed or admitted to trading on the New York Stock Exchange or the NASDAQ Stock Market, as reported in the principal consolidated transaction
reporting system with respect to securities listed on the principal national securities exchange on which the Security is listed or, if the Security is not listed or admitted to trading on any national securities exchange, the last quoted price or,
if not so quoted, the average of the high bid and low asked prices in the over-the-counter market, as reported in the OTC Bulletin Board, the Pink OTC Markets, Inc. or such other system then in use, or, if on any such date the Security is not quoted
by any such organization, the average of the closing bid and asked prices as furnished by a professional market maker making a market in the Security selected by the Board or, if on any such date no professional market maker is making a market in
the Security, the price as determined in good faith by the Board. The term “Trading Day” shall mean a day on which the principal national securities exchange on which the Security is listed or admitted to trading is open for
the transaction of business or, if the Security is not listed or admitted to trading on any national securities exchange, a Business Day. 

  
 18 








 (ii) For the purpose of any computation hereunder, the
“current per share market price” of the Preferred Shares shall be determined in accordance with the method set forth in Section 11(d)(i) hereof, except that if the Preferred Shares are not publicly traded, the
“current per share market price” of the Preferred Shares shall be conclusively deemed to be the current per share market price of the Common Shares as determined pursuant to Section 11(d)(i) hereof (appropriately adjusted to reflect
any stock split, stock dividend or similar transaction occurring after the date hereof) multiplied by one hundred. If neither the Common Shares nor the Preferred Shares are publicly traded, “current per share market price” shall mean the
fair value per share as determined in good faith by the Board, whose determination shall be set forth in a written statement filed with the Rights Agent and shall be conclusive for all purposes. 

(e) No adjustment in the Purchase Price shall be required unless such adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least 1%
in the Purchase Price; provided, however, that any adjustments that by reason of this Section 11(e) are not required to be made shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment. All calculations under this
Section 11 shall be made to the nearest cent or to the nearest one one-millionth of a Preferred Share or one one-hundredth of any other share or security as the case may be. Notwithstanding the first sentence of this Section 11(e), any
adjustment required by this Section 11 shall be made no later than the earlier of (i) three years from the date of the transaction that requires such adjustment or (ii) the date of the expiration of the right to exercise any Rights.

 (f) If as a result of an adjustment made pursuant to Section 11(a) hereof, the holder of any Right thereafter exercised shall
become entitled to receive any shares of capital stock of the Company other than Preferred Shares, thereafter the number of such other shares so receivable upon exercise of any Right shall be subject to adjustment from time to time in a manner and
on terms as nearly equivalent as practicable to the provisions with respect to the Preferred Shares contained in Section 11(a), (b), (c), (e), (h), (i) and (n) hereof, inclusive, and the provisions of Section 7, Section 9,
Section 10, Section 13 and Section 14 hereof with respect to the Preferred Shares shall apply on like terms to any such other shares. 

(g) All Rights originally issued by the Company subsequent to any adjustment made to the Purchase Price hereunder shall evidence the
right to purchase, at the adjusted Purchase Price, the number of one one-hundredths of a Preferred Share purchasable from time to time hereunder upon exercise of the Rights, all subject to further adjustment as provided herein. 

(h) Unless the Company shall have exercised its election as provided in Section 11(i) hereof, upon each adjustment of the Purchase
Price as a result of the calculations made in Section 11(b) and Section 11(c) hereof, each Right outstanding immediately prior to the making of such adjustment shall thereafter evidence the right to purchase, at the adjusted Purchase
Price, that number of one one-hundredths of a Preferred Share (calculated to the nearest one one-millionth of a Preferred Share) obtained by (i) multiplying (x) the number of one one-hundredths of a Preferred Share covered by a Right
immediately prior to this adjustment by (y) the Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment of the Purchase Price and (ii) dividing the product so obtained by the Purchase Price in effect immediately after such adjustment
of the Purchase Price. 

  
 19 








 (i) The Company may elect on or after the date of any adjustment of the Purchase Price to
adjust the number of Rights, in substitution for any adjustment in the number of one one-hundredths of a Preferred Share purchasable upon the exercise of a Right. Each of the Rights outstanding after such adjustment of the number of Rights shall be
exercisable for the number of one one-hundredths of a Preferred Share for which a Right was exercisable immediately prior to such adjustment. Each Right held of record prior to such adjustment of the number of Rights shall become that number of
Rights (calculated to the nearest one one-hundredth) obtained by dividing the Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to adjustment of the Purchase Price by the Purchase Price in effect immediately after adjustment of the Purchase Price. The
Company shall make a public announcement (with prompt written notice thereof to the Rights Agent; and until such written notice is received by the Rights Agent, the Rights Agent may presume conclusively that no such suspension has occurred) of its
election to adjust the number of Rights, indicating the record date for the adjustment, and, if known at the time, the amount of the adjustment to be made. This record date may be the date on which the Purchase Price is adjusted or any day
thereafter, but, if the Right Certificates have been issued, shall be at least 10 days later than the date of the public announcement. If Right Certificates have been issued, upon each adjustment of the number of Rights pursuant to this
Section 11(i), the Company shall, as promptly as practicable, cause to be distributed to holders of record of Right Certificates on such record date Right Certificates evidencing, subject to Section 14 hereof, the additional Rights to
which such holders shall be entitled as a result of such adjustment, or, at the option of the Company, shall cause to be distributed to such holders of record in substitution and replacement for the Right Certificates held by such holders prior to
the date of adjustment, and upon surrender thereof, if required by the Company, new Right Certificates evidencing all the Rights to which such holders shall be entitled after such adjustment. Right Certificates to be so distributed shall be issued,
executed and delivered by the Company, and countersigned and delivered by the Rights Agent, in the manner provided for herein and shall be registered in the names of the holders of record of Right Certificates on the record date specified in the
public announcement. 
 (j) Irrespective of any adjustment or change in the Purchase Price or the number of one one-hundredths of a
Preferred Share issuable upon the exercise of the Rights, the Right Certificates theretofore and thereafter issued may continue to express the Purchase Price and the number of one one-hundredths of a Preferred Share that was expressed in the initial
Right Certificates issued hereunder. 
 (k) Before taking any action that would cause an adjustment reducing the Purchase
Price below one one-hundredth of the then par value, if any, of the Preferred Shares issuable upon exercise of the Rights, the Company shall take any corporate action that may, in the opinion of its counsel, be necessary to enable the Company to
validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable Preferred Shares at such adjusted Purchase Price. 
 (l) In any case in
which this Section 11 shall require that an adjustment in the Purchase Price be made effective as of a record date for a specified event, the Company may elect to defer (with prompt written notice thereof to the Rights Agent; and until such
written notice is received by the Rights Agent, the Rights Agent may presume conclusively that no such election has occurred) until the occurrence of such event the issuing to the holder of any Right exercised after such record date of the Preferred
Shares and other capital stock or securities of 

  
 20 








 
the Company, if any, issuable upon such exercise on the basis of the Purchase Price in effect prior to such adjustment; provided, however, that the Company shall deliver to such holder a
due bill or other appropriate instrument evidencing such holder’s right to receive such additional shares upon the occurrence of the event requiring such adjustment. 

(m) The Company covenants and agrees that, after the Distribution Date, it will not, except as permitted by this Agreement, take (or
permit any Subsidiary to take) any action the purpose of which is to, or if at the time such action is taken it is reasonably foreseeable that the effect of such action is to, materially diminish or eliminate the benefits intended to be afforded by
the Rights. Any such action taken by the Company during any period after any Person becomes an Acquiring Person but prior to the Distribution Date shall be null and void unless such action could be taken under this Section 11(m) from and after
the Distribution Date. 
 (n) Notwithstanding anything in this Section 11 to the contrary, the Company shall be entitled
to make such reductions in the Purchase Price, in addition to those adjustments expressly required by this Section 11, as and to the extent that it in its sole discretion shall determine to be advisable in order that any (i) consolidation
or subdivision of the Preferred Shares, (ii) issuance wholly for cash of any Preferred Shares at less than the current market price, (iii) issuance wholly for cash of Preferred Shares or securities that by their terms are convertible into
or exchangeable for Preferred Shares, (iv) dividends on Preferred Shares payable in Preferred Shares or (v) issuance of rights, options or warrants referred to hereinabove in Section 11(b), hereafter made by the Company to holders of
its Preferred Shares shall not be taxable to such stockholders. 
 (o) In the event that at any time after the date of this
Agreement and prior to the Distribution Date, the Company shall (i) declare or pay any dividend on the Common Shares payable in Common Shares or (ii) effect a subdivision, combination or consolidation of the Common Shares (by
reclassification or otherwise than by payment of dividends in Common Shares) into a greater or lesser number of Common Shares, then in any such case (A) the number of one one-hundredths of a Preferred Share purchasable after such event upon
proper exercise of each Right shall be determined by multiplying the number of one one-hundredths of a Preferred Share so purchasable immediately prior to such event by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of Common Shares outstanding
immediately before such event and the denominator of which is the number of Common Shares outstanding immediately after such event, and (B) each Common Share outstanding immediately after such event shall have issued with respect to it that
number of Rights that each Common Share outstanding immediately prior to such event had issued with respect to it. The adjustments provided for in this Section 11(o) shall be made successively whenever such a dividend is declared or paid or
such a subdivision, combination or consolidation is effected. 
 (p) The exercise of Rights under Section 11(a)(ii)
hereof shall only result in the loss of rights under Section 11(a)(ii) hereof to the extent so exercised and shall not otherwise affect the rights represented by the Rights under this Agreement, including the rights represented by
Section 13 hereof. 
 SECTION 12. CERTIFICATE OF ADJUSTED PURCHASE
PRICE OR NUMBER OF SHARES. Whenever an adjustment is made or any event affecting the Rights or their exercisability 


  
 21 








 
(including without limitation an event that causes Rights to become null and void) occurs as provided in Section 11 and Section 13 hereof, the Company shall promptly (a) prepare a
certificate setting forth such adjustment or describing such event, and a brief, reasonably detailed statement of the facts, computations and methodology accounting for such adjustment, (b) file with the Rights Agent and with each transfer
agent for the Common Shares or the Preferred Shares a copy of such certificate and (c) mail a brief summary thereof to each holder of a Right Certificate in accordance with Section 25 and Section 26 hereof. The Rights Agent shall be
fully protected in relying on any such certificate and on any adjustment or statement therein contained and shall have no duty or liability with respect to, and shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any adjustment or any such event unless and
until it shall have received such certificate. 
 SECTION 13. CONSOLIDATION, MERGER OR
SALE OR TRANSFER OF ASSETS OR EARNING POWER. 

(a) In the event that, following the Distribution Date, directly or indirectly (x) the Company shall consolidate with, or merge
with and into, any Interested Stockholder or if in such merger or consolidation all holders of Common Shares are not treated alike, (y) any other Person shall consolidate with the Company, or merge with and into the Company, and the Company
shall be the continuing or surviving entity of such merger or if in such merger or consolidation all holders of Common Shares are not treated alike (other than, in the case of either transaction described in (x) or (y), a merger or
consolidation that would result in all of the voting power represented by the securities of the Company outstanding immediately prior thereto continuing to represent (either by remaining outstanding or by being converted into securities of the
surviving entity) all of the voting power represented by the securities of the Company or such surviving entity outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation and the holders of such securities not having changed as a result of such
merger or consolidation), or (z) the Company shall sell or otherwise transfer (or one or more of its Subsidiaries shall sell or otherwise transfer), in one or more transactions, assets or earning power aggregating more than 50% of the assets or
earning power of the Company and its Subsidiaries (taken as a whole) to any Interested Stockholder or Interested Stockholders, or if in such transaction all holders of Common Shares are not treated alike, any other Person (other than the Company or
any Subsidiary of the Company in one or more transactions each of which individually and all of which collectively do not violate Section 13(d) hereof) then, and in each such case, proper provision shall be made so that (i) each holder of
a Right, subject to Section 11(a)(ii) hereof, shall have the right to receive, upon the exercise thereof at a price equal to the then current Purchase Price multiplied by the number of one one-hundredths of a Preferred Share for which a Right
is then exercisable in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and in lieu of Preferred Shares, such number of freely tradable Common Shares of the Principal Party, free and clear of liens, rights of call or first refusal, encumbrances or other
adverse claims, as shall be equal to the result obtained by (A) multiplying the then current Purchase Price by the number of one one-hundredths of a Preferred Share for which a Right is then exercisable (without taking into account any
adjustment previously made pursuant to Section 11(a)(ii) hereof) and dividing that product by (B) 50% of the then current per share market price of the Common Shares of such Principal Party (determined pursuant to Section 11(d)
hereof) on the date of consummation of such consolidation, merger, sale or transfer; (ii) such Principal Party shall thereafter be liable for, and shall assume, by virtue of such consolidation, merger, sale or transfer, all the obligations and
duties of the Company pursuant to this Agreement; (iii) the term “Company” shall thereafter be 

  
 22 








 
deemed to refer to such Principal Party, it being specifically intended that the provisions of Section 11 hereof shall apply to such Principal Party; and (iv) such Principal Party shall
take such steps (including, but not limited to, the reservation of a sufficient number of shares of its Common Shares in accordance with Section 9 hereof) in connection with such consummation as may be necessary to assure that the provisions
hereof shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as reasonably may be, in relation to its Common Shares thereafter deliverable upon the exercise of the Rights (including, without limitation, that the terms hereof in respect of Preferred Shares,
including without limitation the adjustment provisions of Section 11 hereof, shall thereafter apply, in a manner and on terms as nearly equivalent as practicable, with respect to the Common Shares of the Principal Party). 

(b) “Principal Party” shall mean: 

(i) in the case of any transaction described in clause (x) or (y) of Section 13(a) hereof, the Person that is the issuer
of any securities into which Common Shares are converted in such merger or consolidation, and if no securities are so issued, the Person that is the other party to the merger or consolidation (or, if applicable, the Company, if it is the surviving
entity); and 
 (ii) in the case of any transaction described in clause (z) of Section 13(a) hereof, the Person that
is the party receiving the greatest portion of the assets or earning power transferred pursuant to such transaction or transactions, or, if each Person that is party to such transaction or transactions receives the same portion of the assets or
earning power so transferred or if the Person receiving the greatest portion of the assets or earning power cannot be determined, whichever of such Persons is the issuer of Common Shares having the greatest aggregate market value of shares
outstanding; 
 provided, however, that in any case, (1) if the Common Shares of such Person are not at such time and have not been
continuously over the preceding 12-month period registered under Section 12 of the Exchange Act, and such Person is a direct or indirect Subsidiary or Affiliate of another Person the Common Shares of which are and have been so registered,
“Principal Party” shall refer to such other Person; (2) if such Person is a Subsidiary, directly or indirectly, or Affiliate of more than one Person, the Common Shares of two or more of which are and have been so registered,
“Principal Party” shall refer to whichever of such Persons is the issuer of the Common Shares having the greatest aggregate market value; and (3) if such Person is owned, directly or indirectly, by a joint venture formed by two or
more Persons that are not owned, directly or indirectly, by the same Person, the rules set forth in (1) and (2) above shall apply to each of the chains of ownership having an interest in such joint venture as if such party were a
“Subsidiary” of both or all of such joint venturers and the Principal Parties in each such chain shall bear the obligations set forth in this Section 13 in the same ratio as their direct or indirect interests in such Person bear to
the total of such interests. 
 (c) The Company shall not consummate any such consolidation, merger, sale or transfer unless
the Principal Party shall have a sufficient number of authorized Common Shares that have not been issued or reserved for issuance to permit the exercise in full of the Rights in accordance with this Section 13 and unless prior thereto the
Company and each Principal Party and each other Person who may become a Principal Party as a result of such consolidation, 

  
 23 








 
merger, sale or transfer shall have (i) executed and delivered to the Rights Agent a supplemental agreement providing for the terms set forth in Section 13(a) and Section 13(b)
hereof, and (ii) prepared, filed and had declared and remain effective a registration statement under the Securities Act on the appropriate form with respect to the Rights and the securities exercisable upon exercise of the Rights and further
providing that, as soon as practicable after the date of any consolidation, merger, sale or transfer mentioned in Section 13(a) hereof, the Principal Party at its own expense will: 

(i) cause the registration statement under the Securities Act on an appropriate form with respect to the Rights and the securities
purchasable upon exercise of the Rights to remain effective (with a prospectus at all times meeting the requirements of the Securities Act) until the earlier of the Redemption Date and the Final Expiration Date; 

(ii) take all such other action as may be necessary to enable the Principal Party to issue the securities purchasable upon exercise of
the Rights, including but not limited to qualifying or registering the Rights and the securities purchasable upon exercise of the Rights under the blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as may be necessary or appropriate; 

(iii) list the Rights and the securities purchasable upon exercise of the Rights on each national securities exchange on which the
Common Shares were listed prior to the consummation of such consolidation, merger, sale or transfer or, if the Common Shares were not listed on a national securities exchange prior to the consummation of such consolidation, merger, sale or transfer,
on a national securities exchange; and 
 (iv) deliver to holders of the Rights historical financial statements for the
Principal Party and each of its Affiliates that comply in all material respects with the requirements for registration on Form 10 under the Exchange Act (or any successor form). 

The provisions of this Section 13 shall similarly apply to successive mergers or consolidations or sales or other transfers. 

(d) After the Distribution Date and until the earlier of the Redemption Date and the Final Expiration Date, the Company covenants and
agrees that it shall not (i) consolidate with, (ii) merge with or into, or (iii) sell or transfer to, in one or more transactions, assets or earning power aggregating more than 50% of the assets or earning power of the Company and its
Subsidiaries taken as a whole, any other Person (other than a Subsidiary of the Company in a transaction that does not violate Section 11(m) hereof), if (x) at the time of or after such consolidation, merger, sale or transfer there are any
charter or bylaw provisions or any rights, warrants or other instruments or securities outstanding, agreements in effect or any other action taken that would diminish or otherwise eliminate the benefits intended to be afforded by the Rights or
(y) prior to, simultaneously with or immediately after such consolidation, merger, sale or transfer, the stockholders of the Person who constitutes, or would constitute, the “Principal Party” for purposes of Section 13(a) hereof
shall have received a distribution of Rights previously owned by such Person or any of its Affiliates and Associates. The Company shall not consummate any such consolidation, merger, sale or transfer unless prior thereto the Company and such other
Person shall have executed and delivered to the Rights Agent a supplemental agreement evidencing compliance with this Section 13(d). 

  
 24 








 SECTION 14. FRACTIONAL RIGHTS AND FRACTIONAL
SHARES. 
 (a) The Company shall not be required to issue fractions of Rights or to
distribute Right Certificates that evidence fractional Rights. In lieu of such fractional Rights, there shall be paid to the registered holders of the Right Certificates with regard to which such fractional Rights would otherwise be issuable, an
amount in cash equal to the same fraction of the current market value of a whole Right. For the purposes of this Section 14(a), the current market value of a whole Right shall be the closing price of the Rights for the Trading Day immediately
prior to the date on which such fractional Rights would have been otherwise issuable. The closing price for any day shall be the last sale price, regular way, or, in case no such sale takes place on such day, the average of the closing bid and asked
prices, regular way, in either case as reported in the principal consolidated transaction reporting system with respect to securities listed or admitted to trading on the New York Stock Exchange or the NASDAQ Stock Market, if the Rights are not
listed or admitted to trading on the New York Stock Exchange or the NASDAQ Stock Market, as reported in the principal consolidated transaction reporting system with respect to securities listed on the principal national securities exchange on which
the Rights are listed or admitted to trading or, if the Rights are not listed or admitted to trading on any national securities exchange, the last quoted price or, if not so quoted, the average of the high bid and low asked prices in the
over-the-counter market, as reported in the OTC Bulletin Board, the Pink OTC Markets, Inc. or such other system then in use or, if on any such date the Rights are not quoted by any such organization, the average of the closing bid and asked prices
as furnished by a professional market maker making a market in the Rights selected by the Board. If on any such date no such market maker is making a market in the Rights, the fair value of the Rights on such date as determined in good faith by the
Board shall be used. 
 (b) The Company shall not be required to issue fractions of Preferred Shares (other than
fractions that are integral multiples of one one-hundredth of a Preferred Share) upon exercise of the Rights or to distribute certificates that evidence fractional Preferred Shares (other than fractions that are integral multiples of one
one-hundredth of a Preferred Share) upon the exercise of Rights. Fractions of Preferred Shares in integral multiples of one one-hundredth of a Preferred Share may, at the election of the Company, be evidenced by depositary receipts, pursuant to an
appropriate agreement between the Company and a depositary selected by it; provided, however, that holders of such depositary receipts shall have all of the designations and the powers, preferences and rights, and the qualifications,
limitations and restrictions to which they are entitled as beneficial owners of the Preferred Shares represented by such depositary receipts. In lieu of fractional Preferred Shares that are not integral multiples of one one-hundredth of a Preferred
Share, the Company shall pay to the registered holders of Right Certificates at the time such Rights are exercised as herein provided an amount in cash equal to the same fraction of the current market value of one Preferred Share. For the purposes
of this Section 14(b), the current market value of a Preferred Share shall be the closing price of a Preferred Share (as determined pursuant to the second sentence of Section 11(d)(i) hereof) for the Trading Day immediately prior to the
date of such exercise; provided, however, that if the Preferred Shares are not publicly traded at the time of such exercise, the current market value of a Preferred Share shall be determined in accordance with Section 11(d)(ii) hereof
for the Trading Day immediately prior to the date of such exercise. 

  
 25 








 (c) Following the occurrence of one of the transactions or events specified
in Section 11 hereof giving rise to the right to receive Common Shares or other securities (other than Preferred Shares) upon the exercise of a Right, the Company shall not be required to issue fractions of Common Shares or other securities
upon exercise of the Rights or to distribute certificates that evidence fractional Common Shares or other securities. In lieu of fractional Common Shares or other securities, the Company may pay to the registered holders of Right Certificates at the
time such Rights are exercised as herein provided an amount in cash equal to the same fraction of the current market value of one Common Share or one such other security. For purposes of this Section 14(c), the current market value shall be the
closing price for one Common Share or such other security, as applicable (as determined pursuant to the second sentence of Section 11(d)(i) hereof) for the Trading Day immediately prior to the date of such exercise; provided, however,
that if such other security is not publicly traded at the time of such exercise, such security shall have the value of one one-hundredth of a Preferred Share as determined pursuant to Section 14(b) hereof. 

(d) The holder of a Right by the acceptance of the Right expressly waives any right such holder may have to receive any fractional
Rights or any fractional shares upon exercise of a Right (except as provided above). 
 (e) Whenever a payment for fractional
Rights or fractional shares is to be made by the Rights Agent, the Company shall (i) promptly prepare and deliver to the Rights Agent a certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the facts related to such payments and the prices and/or
formulas utilized in calculating such payments, and (ii) provide sufficient monies to the Rights Agent in the form of fully collected funds to make such payments. The Rights Agent shall be fully protected in relying upon such a certificate and
shall have no duty with respect to, and shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any payment for fractional Rights or fractional shares under any Section of this Agreement relating to the payment of fractional Rights or fractional shares unless and
until the Rights Agent shall have received such a certificate and sufficient monies. 
 SECTION 15. RIGHTS OF
ACTION. All rights of action in respect of this Agreement, excepting the rights of action given to the Rights Agent under Section 18 and Section 20 and any other Section hereof, are vested in the
respective registered holders of the Right Certificates (and, prior to the Distribution Date, the registered holders of the Common Shares) and any registered holder of any Right Certificate (or, prior to the Distribution Date, of the Common Shares),
without the consent of the Rights Agent or of the holder of any other Right Certificate (or, prior to the Distribution Date, of the Common Shares), may, in such holder’s own behalf and for such holder’s own benefit, enforce, and may
institute and maintain any suit, action or proceeding against the Company to enforce, or otherwise act in respect of, such holder’s right to exercise the Rights evidenced by such Right Certificate in the manner provided in such Right
Certificate and in this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing or any remedies available to the holders of Rights, it is specifically acknowledged that the holders of Rights would not have an adequate remedy at law for any breach by the Company
of this Agreement and will be entitled to specific performance of the obligations under, and injunctive relief against actual or threatened violations by the Company of the obligations of any Person subject to, this Agreement. Holders of Rights
shall be entitled to recover from the Company the reasonable costs and expenses, including attorneys fees, incurred by them in any successful action to enforce the provisions of this Agreement against the Company. 

  
 26 








 Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, neither the Company nor the
Rights Agent shall have any liability to any holder of a Right or other Person as a result of the inability of the Company or the Rights Agent to perform any of its obligations under this Agreement by reason of any preliminary or permanent
injunction or other order, judgment, decree or ruling (whether interlocutory or final) issued by a court or by a governmental, regulatory, self-regulatory or administrative agency or commission, or any statute, rule, regulation or executive order
promulgated or enacted by any governmental authority, prohibiting or otherwise restraining performance of such obligation; provided, however, that the Company shall use all reasonable efforts to oppose any action for any such injunction
order, judgment, decree or ruling and to have any such injunction, order, judgment, decree or ruling lifted or otherwise overturned as soon as possible. 

SECTION 16. AGREEMENT OF RIGHT HOLDERS. Every holder of a Right, by
accepting the same, consents and agrees with the Company and the Rights Agent and with every other holder of a Right that: 
 (a)
prior to the Distribution Date, the Rights will be transferable only in connection with the transfer of the Common Shares; 

(b) after the Distribution Date, the Right Certificates are transferable (subject to the provisions of this Agreement) only on the
registry books of the Rights Agent if surrendered at the office of the Rights Agent designated for such purpose, duly endorsed or accompanied by a proper instrument of transfer and with all appropriate forms and certificates contained therein
properly completed and duly executed; and 
 (c) subject to Section 6 and Section 7(f) hereof, the Company and the
Rights Agent may deem and treat the Person in whose name the Right Certificate (or, prior to the Distribution Date, the associated Common Shares certificate or book-entry shares in respect of Common Shares) is registered as the absolute owner
thereof and of the Rights evidenced thereby (notwithstanding any notations of ownership or writing on the Right Certificates or the associated Common Shares certificate (or notices provided to holders of book-entry Common Shares) made by anyone
other than the Company or the Rights Agent) for all purposes whatsoever, and neither the Company nor the Rights Agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary. 

SECTION 17. RIGHT CERTIFICATE HOLDER NOT DEEMED A
STOCKHOLDER. No holder, as such, of any Right Certificate shall be entitled to vote, receive dividends or be deemed for any purpose the holder of the Preferred Shares or any other securities of the Company that may
at any time be issuable on the exercise of the Rights represented thereby, nor shall anything contained herein or in any Right Certificate be construed to confer upon the holder of any Right Certificate, as such, any of the rights of a stockholder
of the Company or any right to vote for the election of directors or upon any matter submitted to stockholders at any meeting thereof, or to give or withhold consent to any corporate action, or to receive notice of meetings or other actions
affecting stockholders (except as provided in Section 25 hereof), or to receive dividends or subscription rights, or otherwise, until the Right or Rights evidenced by such Right Certificate shall have been exercised in accordance with the
provisions hereof. 

  
 27 








 SECTION 18. CONCERNING THE RIGHTS
AGENT. The Company agrees to pay to the Rights Agent reasonable compensation for all services rendered by it hereunder and, from time to time, on demand of the Rights Agent, its reasonable expenses, counsel fees and
expenses, and other disbursements incurred in the preparation, negotiation, delivery, amendment, administration and execution of this Agreement and the exercise and performance of its duties hereunder. The Company also agrees to indemnify the Rights
Agent for, and to hold it harmless against, any loss, liability, damage, judgment, fine, penalty, claim, demand, settlement, cost or expense (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and expenses of legal counsel), incurred without gross
negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on the part of the Rights Agent (which gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct must be determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction), for any action taken,
suffered or omitted to be taken by the Rights Agent in connection with the acceptance, administration, exercise and performance of its duties under this Agreement, including but not limited to the costs and expenses of defending against any claim of
liability arising therefrom, directly or indirectly, or enforcing its rights hereunder. The provisions of this Section 18 and Section 20 below shall survive the termination of this Agreement, the exercise or expiration of the Rights and
the resignation, replacement or removal of the Rights Agent. The Rights Agent shall be authorized and protected and shall incur no liability for, or in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it in connection with its
acceptance and administration of this Agreement and the exercise and performance of its duties hereunder, in reliance upon any Right Certificate or certificate for the Preferred Shares or Common Shares or for other securities of the Company,
instrument of assignment or transfer, power of attorney, endorsement, affidavit, letter, notice, direction, consent, certificate, statement, or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to be signed, executed and, where necessary,
verified or acknowledged, by the proper Person or Persons, or otherwise upon the advice of counsel as set forth in Section 20 hereof. The Rights Agent shall not be deemed to have any knowledge of any event of which it was supposed to receive
notice thereof hereunder, and the Rights Agent shall be fully protected and shall incur no liability for failing to take any action in connection therewith, unless and until it has received such notice in writing. 

SECTION 19. MERGER OR CONSOLIDATION OR CHANGE OF
NAME OF RIGHTS AGENT. Any Person into which the Rights Agent or any successor Rights Agent may be merged or with which it may be consolidated, or any Person resulting
from any merger or consolidation to which the Rights Agent or any successor Rights Agent shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to the shareholder services or corporate trust business of the Rights Agent or any successor Rights Agent, shall be
the successor to the Rights Agent under this Agreement without the execution or filing of any paper or document or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, provided that such Person would be eligible for appointment as a successor
Rights Agent under the provisions of Section 21 hereof. In case at the time such successor Rights Agent shall succeed to the agency created by this Agreement any of the Right Certificates shall have been countersigned but not delivered, any
such successor Rights Agent may adopt the countersignature of the predecessor Rights Agent and deliver such Right Certificates so countersigned; and in case at that time any of the Right Certificates shall not have been countersigned, any successor
Rights Agent may countersign such Right Certificates either in the name of the predecessor Rights Agent or in the name of the successor Rights Agent; and in all such cases such Right Certificates shall have the full force provided in the Right
Certificates and in this Agreement. 

  
 28 








 In case at any time the name of the Rights Agent shall be changed and at such time any of the
Right Certificates shall have been countersigned but not delivered, the Rights Agent may adopt the countersignature under its prior name and deliver Right Certificates so countersigned; and in case at that time any of the Right Certificates shall
not have been countersigned, the Rights Agent may countersign such Right Certificates either in its prior name or in its changed name; and in all such cases such Right Certificates shall have the full force provided in the Right Certificates and in
this Agreement. 
 SECTION 20. DUTIES OF RIGHTS AGENT. The Rights
Agent undertakes to perform only the duties and obligations expressly imposed by this Agreement (and no implied duties or obligations) upon the following terms and conditions, by all of which the Company and the holders of Right Certificates, by
their acceptance thereof, shall be bound: 
 (a) The Rights Agent may consult with legal counsel of its choice (who may be legal
counsel for the Rights Agent or the Company or an employee of the Rights Agent or otherwise), and the advice or opinion of such counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection to the Rights Agent and the Rights Agent shall incur no
liability for in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it in the absence of bad faith and in accordance with such advice or opinion. 

(b) Whenever in the performance of its duties under this Agreement the Rights Agent shall deem it necessary or desirable that any fact
or matter (including without limitation, the identity of an Acquiring Person and the determination of the current per share market price of any security) be proved or established by the Company prior to taking, suffering or omitting to take any
action hereunder, such fact or matter (unless other evidence in respect thereof be herein specifically prescribed) may be deemed to be conclusively proved and established by a certificate signed by any one of the Chairman of the Board, the Chief
Executive Officer, the President, the Chief Financial Officer, any Vice President, the Treasurer or the Secretary of the Company and delivered to the Rights Agent; and such certificate shall be full and complete authorization and protection to the
Rights Agent and the Rights Agent shall incur no liability for or in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it in the absence of bad faith, under the provisions of this Agreement in reliance upon such certificate.

 (c) The Rights Agent shall be liable hereunder to the Company and any other Person only for its own gross negligence, bad
faith or willful misconduct (which gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct must be determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction). Anything to the contrary notwithstanding, in no event shall the Rights
Agent be liable for special, punitive, indirect, consequential or incidental loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including but not limited to lost profits), even if the Rights Agent has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage. Any
liability of the Rights Agent under this Agreement will be limited to the amount of annual fees paid by the Company to the Rights Agent. 

  
 29 








 (d) The Rights Agent shall not be liable for or by reason of any of the statements of fact
or recitals contained in this Agreement or in the Right Certificates (except its countersignature thereof) or be required to verify the same, but all such statements and recitals are and shall be deemed to have been made by the Company only.

 (e) The Rights Agent shall not have any liability for or be under any responsibility in respect of the validity of this
Agreement or the execution and delivery hereof (except the due execution hereof by the Rights Agent) or in respect of the validity or execution of any Right Certificate (except its countersignature thereof); nor shall it be liable or responsible for
any breach by the Company of any covenant or condition contained in this Agreement or in any Right Certificate; nor shall it be responsible for any change in the exercisability of the Rights (including the Rights becoming null and void pursuant to
Section 11(a)(ii) hereof) or any change or adjustment in the terms of the Rights (including the manner, method or amount thereof) provided for in Section 3, Section 11, Section 13, Section 23 or Section 24 hereof, or
the ascertaining of the existence of facts that would require any such change or adjustment (except with respect to the exercise of Rights evidenced by Right Certificates after receipt of a certificate furnished pursuant to Section 12
describing such change or adjustment, upon which the Rights Agent may conclusively rely, hereof describing such change or adjustment); nor shall it by any act hereunder be deemed to make any representation or warranty as to the authorization or
reservation of any Preferred Shares or other securities to be issued pursuant to this Agreement or any Right Certificate or as to whether any Preferred Shares or other securities will, when issued, be validly authorized and issued, fully paid and
nonassessable. 
 (f) The Company will perform, execute, acknowledge and deliver or cause to be performed, executed,
acknowledged and delivered all such further and other acts, instruments and assurances as may reasonably be required by the Rights Agent for the carrying out or performing by the Rights Agent of the provisions of this Agreement. 

(g) The Rights Agent is hereby authorized and directed to accept instructions with respect to the performance of its duties hereunder
from any one of the Chairman of the Board, the Chief Executive Officer, the President, the Chief Financial Officer, any Vice President, the Secretary or the Treasurer of the Company, and to apply to such officers for advice or instructions in
connection with its duties, and such instructions shall be full authorization and protection to the Rights Agent and the Rights Agent shall not be liable for or in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it in accordance with
instructions of any such officer or for any delay in acting while waiting for those instructions. The Rights Agent shall be fully authorized and protected in relying upon the most recent instructions received by it from any such officer. Any
application by the Rights Agent for written instructions from the Company may, at the option of the Rights Agent, set forth in writing any action proposed to be taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by the Rights Agent under this Agreement and the
date on and/or after which such action shall be taken or suffered or such omission shall be effective. The Rights Agent shall not be liable for any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by the Rights Agent in accordance with a proposal
included in any such application on or after the date specified therein (which date shall not be less than five Business Days after the date any officer of the Company actually receives such application, unless any such officer shall have consented
in writing to an earlier date) unless, prior to taking any such action (or the effective date in the case of an omission), the Rights Agent shall have received written instructions in response to such application specifying the action to be taken,
suffered or omitted to be taken. 

  
 30 








 (h) If, with respect to any Right Certificate surrendered to the Rights Agent for exercise
or transfer, the certificate contained in the form of assignment or the form of election to purchase set forth on the reverse thereof, as the case may be, has either not been completed, not executed or has been altered, the Rights Agent shall not
take any further action with respect to such requested exercise or transfer without first consulting with the Company. 
 (i)
The Rights Agent and any stockholder, affiliate, director, officer or employee of the Rights Agent may buy, sell or deal in any of the Rights or other securities of the Company or become pecuniarily interested in any transaction in which the
Company may be interested, or contract with or lend money to the Company or otherwise act as fully and freely as though it were not Rights Agent under this Agreement. Nothing herein shall preclude the Rights Agent or any such stockholder, affiliate,
director, officer or employee from acting in any other capacity for the Company or for any other Person. 
 (j) The Rights
Agent may execute and exercise any of the rights or powers hereby vested in it or perform any duty hereunder either itself (through its directors, officers and employees) or by or through its attorneys or agents, and the Rights Agent shall not be
liable, answerable or accountable for any act, default, neglect or misconduct of any such attorneys or agents or for any loss to the Company, any holder of Rights or any other Person resulting from any such act, default, neglect or misconduct,
absent gross negligence or bad faith in the selection and continued employment thereof (which gross negligence or bad faith must be determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction). 

(k) No provision of this Agreement shall require the Rights Agent to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial
liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder (other than internal costs incurred by the Rights Agent in providing services to the Company in the ordinary course of its business as Rights Agent) or in the exercise of its rights if it
believes that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnification against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it. 

SECTION 21. CHANGE OF RIGHTS AGENT. The Rights Agent or any successor
Rights Agent may resign and be discharged from its duties under this Agreement upon 30 days’ notice in writing mailed to the Company and, in the event that the Rights Agent or one of its Affiliates is not also the transfer agent for the
Company, to each transfer agent for the Common Shares or Preferred Shares known to the Rights Agent by registered or certified mail. The Company may remove the Rights Agent or any successor Rights Agent upon 30 days’ notice in writing, mailed
to the Rights Agent or successor Rights Agent, as the case may be, and to each transfer agent for the Common Shares or Preferred Shares by registered or certified mail, and to the holders of the Right Certificates by first-class mail. If the Rights
Agent shall resign or be removed or shall otherwise become incapable of acting, the Company shall appoint a successor to the Rights Agent. If the Company shall fail to make such appointment within a period of 30 days after giving notice of such
removal or after it has been notified in writing of such resignation or incapacity by the resigning or incapacitated Rights Agent or by the holder of a Right Certificate (which holder shall, with such notice, submit such holder’s Right
Certificate for inspection by 

  
 31 








 
the Company), then the registered holder of any Right Certificate may apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a new Rights Agent. Any successor Rights Agent, whether
appointed by the Company or by such a court, shall be either (a) a Person organized and doing business under the laws of the United States or of any state of the United States that is authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust or
stock transfer powers and is subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authority and that has, along with its Affiliates, at the time of its appointment as Rights Agent a combined capital and surplus of at least $50 million or
(b) an Affiliate of such Person. After appointment, the successor Rights Agent shall be vested with the same powers, rights, duties and responsibilities as if it had been originally named as Rights Agent without further act or deed; but the
predecessor Rights Agent shall deliver and transfer to the successor Rights Agent any property at the time held by it hereunder, and execute and deliver any further assurance, conveyance, act or deed necessary for the purpose. Not later than the
effective date of any such appointment the Company shall file notice thereof in writing with the predecessor Rights Agent and each transfer agent for the Common Shares or Preferred Shares, and mail a notice thereof in writing to the registered
holders of the Right Certificates. Failure to give any notice provided for in this Section 21, however, or any defect therein, shall not affect the legality or validity of the resignation or removal of the Rights Agent or the appointment of the
successor Rights Agent, as the case may be. 
 SECTION 22. ISSUANCE OF NEW RIGHT
CERTIFICATES. Notwithstanding any of the provisions of this Agreement or of the Rights to the contrary, the Company may, at its option, issue new Right Certificates evidencing Rights in such form as may be approved
by the Board to reflect any adjustment or change in the Purchase Price and the number or kind or class of shares or other securities or property purchasable under the Right Certificates made in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. In
addition, in connection with the issuance or sale of Common Shares following the Distribution Date and prior to the earlier of the Redemption Date and the Final Expiration Date, the Company (a) shall with respect to Common Shares so issued or
sold pursuant to the exercise of stock options or under any employee plan or arrangement in existence prior to the Distribution Date, or upon the exercise, conversion or exchange of securities, notes or debentures issued by the Company and in
existence prior to the Distribution Date, and (b) may, in any other case, if deemed necessary or appropriate by the Board, issue Right Certificates representing the appropriate number of Rights in connection with such issuance or sale;
provided, however, that (i) the Company shall not be obligated to issue any such Right Certificates if, and to the extent that, the Company shall be advised by counsel that such issuance would create a significant risk of material
adverse tax consequences to the Company or the Person to whom such Right Certificate would be issued, and (ii) no Right Certificate shall be issued if, and to the extent that, appropriate adjustment shall otherwise have been made in lieu of the
issuance thereof. 
 SECTION 23. REDEMPTION. 

(a) The Rights may be redeemed by action of the Board pursuant to Section 23(b) hereof and shall not be redeemed in any other
manner. 
 (b) (i) The Board may, at its option, at any time prior to the earlier of (A) such time as any Person becomes
an Acquiring Person, or (B) the Final Expiration Date, redeem all but not less than all of the then outstanding Rights at a redemption price of $0.001 per Right, 

  
 32 








 
appropriately adjusted to reflect any stock split, stock dividend or similar transaction occurring after the date hereof (such redemption price being hereinafter referred to as the
“Redemption Price”), and the Company may, at its option, pay the Redemption Price in Common Shares (based on the “current per-share market price,” as such term is defined in Section 11(d) hereof, of the Common
Shares at the time of redemption), cash or any other form of consideration deemed appropriate by the Board. The redemption of the Rights by the Board may be made effective at such time, on such basis and subject to such conditions as the Board in
its sole discretion may establish. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, the Rights shall not be exercisable pursuant to Section 11(a)(ii) hereof prior to the expiration or termination of the Company’s right
of redemption under this Section 23(b)(i). 
 (ii) In addition, the Board may, at its option, at any time after the time a
Person becomes an Acquiring Person but prior to any event described in clause (x), (y) or (z) of the first sentence of Section 13 hereof, redeem all but not less than all of the then outstanding Rights at the Redemption Price
(x) in connection with any merger, consolidation or sale or other transfer (in one transaction or in a series of related transactions) of assets or earning power aggregating 50% or more of the assets or earning power of the Company and its
Subsidiaries (taken as a whole) in which all holders of Common Shares are treated alike and not involving (other than as a holder of Common Shares being treated like all other such holders) an Interested Stockholder or a Transaction Person or (y)(A)
if and for so long as such Acquiring Person is not thereafter the Beneficial Owner of 15% (20% in the case of a Passive Institutional Investor) or more of the then outstanding Common Shares, and (B) at the time of redemption no other Persons
are Acquiring Persons. 
 (c) Immediately upon the action of the Board ordering the redemption of the Rights pursuant to
Section 23(b) hereof, and without any further action and without any notice, the right to exercise the Rights will terminate and the only right thereafter of the holders of Rights shall be to receive the Redemption Price. The Company shall
promptly give public notice of any such redemption (with prompt written notice thereof to the Rights Agent; and until such written notice is received by the Rights Agent, the Rights Agent may presume conclusively that no such redemption has
occurred); provided, however, that the failure to give, or any defect in, any such notice shall not affect the validity of such redemption. Within 10 days after such action of the Board ordering the redemption of the Rights pursuant to
Section 23(b) hereof, the Company shall mail a notice of redemption to all the holders of the then outstanding Rights at their last addresses as they appear upon the registry books of the Rights Agent or, prior to the Distribution Date, on the
registry books of the transfer agent for the Common Shares, provided, however, that failure to give, or any defect in, any such notice shall not affect the validity of such redemption. Any notice that is mailed in the manner herein provided
shall be deemed given, whether or not the holder receives the notice. Each such notice of redemption will state the method by which the payment of the Redemption Price will be made. Neither the Company nor any of its Affiliates or Associates may
redeem, acquire or purchase for value any Rights at any time in any manner (i) other than that specifically set forth in this Section 23 or in Section 24 hereof, or (ii) other than in connection with the purchase of Common Shares
prior to the Distribution Date. 
 (d) Notwithstanding Section 23(c) hereof, the Company may, at its option, discharge all of
its obligations with respect to any redemption of the Rights by (i) issuing a press release announcing the manner of redemption of the Rights (with prompt written notice thereof to the 

  
 33 








 
Rights Agent; and until such written notice is received by the Rights Agent, the Rights Agent may presume conclusively that no such discharge has occurred) and (ii) mailing payment of the
Redemption Price to the registered holders of the Rights at their last addresses as they appear on the registry books of the Rights Agent or, prior to the Distribution Date, on the registry books of the transfer agent for the Common Shares, and upon
such action, all outstanding Right Certificates shall be null and void without any further action by the Company. In the event the Company elects to discharge all of its obligations with respect to any redemption of Rights by mailing payment of the
Redemption Price to the registered holders of the Rights as set forth in the preceding sentence, the dollar amount sent to each such registered holder representing the full Redemption Price to which such registered holder is entitled shall be
rounded up to the nearest whole cent. 
 SECTION 24. EXCHANGE. 

(a) The Board may, at its option, at any time after any Person becomes an Acquiring Person, exchange all or part of the then
outstanding and exercisable Rights (which shall not include Rights that have become null and void pursuant to the provisions of Section 11(a)(ii) hereof) for Common Shares at an exchange ratio of one Common Share per Right, appropriately
adjusted to reflect any stock split, stock dividend or similar transaction occurring after the date hereof (such exchange ratio being hereinafter referred to as the “Exchange Ratio”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board
shall not be empowered to effect such exchange at any time after any Person (other than the Company, any Subsidiary of the Company, any employee benefit plan of the Company or any such Subsidiary, or any Person holding Common Shares for or pursuant
to the terms of any such plan), together with all Affiliates and Associates of such Person, becomes the Beneficial Owner of 50% or more of the Common Shares then outstanding. 

(b) Immediately upon the action of the Board ordering the exchange of any Rights pursuant to Section 24(a) hereof
and without any further action and without any notice, the right to exercise such Rights shall terminate and the only right thereafter of a holder of such Rights shall be to receive that number of Common Shares equal to the number of such Rights
held by such holder multiplied by the Exchange Ratio. The Company shall promptly give public notice of any such exchange (with prompt written notice thereof to the Rights Agent; and until such written notice is received by the Rights Agent, the
Rights Agent may presume conclusively that no such exchange has occurred); provided, however, that the failure to give, or any defect in, such notice shall not affect the validity of such exchange. The Company promptly shall mail a notice of
any such exchange to all of the holders of such Rights at their last addresses as they appear upon the registry books of the Rights Agent; provided, however, that the failure to give, or any defect in, such notice shall not affect the
validity of such exchange. Any notice that is mailed in the manner herein provided shall be deemed given, whether or not the holder receives the notice. Each such notice of exchange will state the method by which the exchange of the Common Shares
for Rights will be effected and, in the event of any partial exchange, the number of Rights that will be exchanged. Any partial exchange shall be effected pro rata based on the number of Rights (other than Rights that have become null and void
pursuant to the provisions of Section 11(a)(ii) hereof) held by each holder of Rights. 
 (c) Following the action of the
Board ordering the exchange of any Rights pursuant to Section 24(a) hereof, the Company may implement such procedures in its sole discretion as it 

  
 34 








 
deems appropriate for the purpose of ensuring that the Common Shares (or such other consideration) issuable upon an exchange pursuant to this Section 24 not be received by holders of Rights
that have become null and void pursuant to the second paragraph of Section 11(a)(ii) hereof. In furtherance hereof, if so directed by the Company, Common Shares (or other consideration) potentially issuable to holders of Rights upon an exchange
pursuant to this Section 24, who have not verified to the satisfaction of the Company, in its sole discretion, that they are not Acquiring Persons or other Persons holding Rights that have become null and void, may be deposited in a trust
established by the Company pending receipt of appropriate verification. 
 (d) In any exchange pursuant to this Section 24, the
Company, at its option, may substitute Preferred Shares (or Equivalent Preferred Shares) for Common Shares exchangeable for Rights, at the initial rate of one one-hundredth of a Preferred Share (or Equivalent Preferred Share) for each Common Share,
as appropriately adjusted to reflect stock splits, stock dividends and other similar transactions after the date hereof. 
 (e)
In lieu of issuing Common Shares in accordance with Section 24(a) hereof, the Company may, if the Board determines that such action is necessary or appropriate and not contrary to the interests of the holders of Rights, elect to (and, in
the event that there are not sufficient treasury shares and authorized but unissued Common Shares to permit any exchange of the Rights in accordance with Section 24(a) hereof, the Company shall) take all such action as may be necessary to
authorize, issue or pay, upon the exchange of the Rights, cash, property, Common Shares, other securities or any combination thereof having an aggregate value equal to the value of the Common Shares that otherwise would have been issuable pursuant
to Section 24(a) hereof, which aggregate value shall be determined by the Board upon consideration of the advice of a nationally recognized investment banking firm selected by the Board. For purposes of the preceding sentence, the value of the
Common Shares shall be determined pursuant to Section 11(d) hereof. Following the Distribution Date, the Board may suspend the exercisability of the Rights for a period of up to 60 days following the Distribution Date to the extent that the
Board has not determined whether to exercise the right of exchange under this Section 24(e). In the event of any such suspension, the Company shall issue a public announcement stating that the exercisability of the Rights has been temporarily
suspended (with prompt written notice thereof to the Rights Agent; and until such written notice is received by the Rights Agent, the Rights Agent may presume conclusively that no such suspension has occurred). 

(f) The Company shall not be required to issue fractions of Common Shares or to distribute certificates that evidence fractional Common
Shares. In lieu of such fractional Common Shares, the Company shall pay to the registered holders of the Right Certificates with regard to which such fractional Common Shares would otherwise be issuable an amount in cash equal to the same fraction
of the current market value of a whole Common Share. For the purposes of this Section 24(f), the current market value of a whole Common Share shall be the closing price of a Common Share (as determined pursuant to the second sentence of
Section 11(d)(i) hereof) for the Trading Day immediately after the date of the first public announcement by the Company that an exchange is to be effected pursuant to this Section 24. 

  
 35 








 SECTION 25. NOTICE OF CERTAIN EVENTS. In
case the Company shall propose (i) to pay any dividend payable in stock of any class to the holders of its Preferred Shares or to make any other distribution to the holders of its Preferred Shares (other than a regular quarterly cash dividend),
(ii) to offer to the holders of its Preferred Shares rights or warrants to subscribe for or to purchase any additional Preferred Shares or shares of stock of any class or any other securities, rights or options, (iii) to effect any
reclassification of its Preferred Shares (other than a reclassification involving only the subdivision of outstanding Preferred Shares), (iv) to effect any consolidation or merger into or with, or to effect any sale or other transfer (or to
permit one or more of its Subsidiaries to effect any sale or other transfer), in one or more transactions, of 50% or more of the assets or earning power of the Company and its Subsidiaries (taken as a whole), to any other Person or Persons (other
than the Company and/or any of its Subsidiaries in on or more transactions), (v) to effect the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, or (vi) to declare or pay any dividend on the Common Shares payable in Common Shares or
to effect a subdivision, combination or consolidation of the Common Shares (by reclassification or otherwise than by payment of dividends in Common Shares), then, in each such case, the Company shall give to the Rights Agent and (to the extent
practicable) each holder of a Right Certificate, in accordance with Section 26 hereof, a notice of such proposed action, which shall specify the record date for the purpose of such stock dividend, or distribution of rights or warrants, or the
date on which such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer, liquidation, dissolution, or winding up is to take place and the date of participation therein by the holders of the Common Shares and/or the Preferred Shares, if any such
date is to be fixed, and such notice shall be so given in the case of any action covered by clause (i) or (ii) above at least 10 days prior to the record date for determining holders of the Preferred Shares for purposes of such action, and
in the case of any such other action, at least 10 days prior to the date of the taking of such proposed action or the date of participation therein by the holders of the Common Shares and/or the Preferred Shares, whichever shall be the earlier.

SECTION 27. SUPPLEMENTS AND AMENDMENTS. Except as provided in the penultimate sentence
of this Section 27, prior to the Distribution Date, the Company may (and the Rights Agent shall, upon request of the Company), supplement or amend any provision of this Agreement without the approval of any holders of the Rights. From and after
the Distribution Date, the Company and the Rights Agent shall, if the Company so directs, from time to time supplement or amend any provision of this Agreement without the approval of any holders of Right Certificates in order to (i) cure any
ambiguity, (ii) correct or supplement any provision contained herein that may be defective or inconsistent with any other provisions herein, (iii) change any other provisions with respect to the Rights that the Company may deem necessary
or desirable or (iv) shorten or lengthen any time period hereunder; provided, however, that no such supplement or amendment shall be made that would adversely affect the interests of the holders of Rights (other than the interests of an
Acquiring Person or its Affiliates or Associates). Any supplement or amendment adopted during any period after any Person has become an Acquiring Person but prior to the Distribution Date shall be null and void unless such supplement or amendment
could have been adopted by the Company from and after the Distribution Date. Any and all such supplements or amendments shall be evidenced by a writing signed by the Company and the Rights Agent. Upon delivery of a certificate from an appropriate
officer of the Company that states that the proposed supplement or amendment is in compliance with the terms of this Section 27, the Rights Agent shall execute such supplement or amendment. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement
to the contrary, the Rights Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into any supplement or amendment that affects the Rights Agent’s own rights, duties, obligations or immunities under this Agreement. Prior to the Distribution Date, the
interests of the holders of Rights shall be deemed coincident with the interests of the holders of Common Shares. 
 SECTION 28.
DETERMINATION AND ACTIONS BY THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS, ETC. For all purposes of this Agreement,
any calculation of the number of Common Shares outstanding at any particular time, including for purposes of determining the particular percentage of such outstanding Common Shares or any other securities of which any Person is the Beneficial Owner,
shall be made in accordance with the last sentence of Rule 13d-3(d)(1)(i) under the Exchange Act as in effect on the date of this Agreement. The Board shall have the exclusive power and authority to administer this Agreement and to exercise all
rights and powers specifically granted to the Board, or the Company, or as may be necessary or advisable in the administration of this Agreement, including without limitation, the right and power to (i) interpret the provisions of this
Agreement, and (ii) make all determinations deemed necessary or advisable for the administration of this Agreement (including a determination to redeem or not 

  
 37 








 
redeem the Rights or to amend the Agreement). All such actions, calculations, interpretations and determinations (including, for purposes of clause (y) below, all omissions with respect to
the foregoing) that are done or made by the Board in good faith, shall (x) be final, conclusive and binding on the Rights Agent and the holders of the Rights, and (y) not subject the Board to any liability to the holders of the Rights. The
Rights Agent is entitled always to assume the Company’s Board of Directors acted in good faith and shall be fully protected and incur no liability in reliance thereon. 

SECTION 29. SUCCESSORS. All the covenants and provisions of this Agreement by or for the benefit of the Company or
the Rights Agent shall bind and inure to the benefit of their respective successors and assigns hereunder. 
 SECTION 30. BENEFITS
OF THIS AGREEMENT. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to give to any Person other than the Company, the Rights Agent and the registered holders of the Right Certificates (and,
prior to the Distribution Date, the registered holders, of the Common Shares) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Agreement; but this Agreement shall be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the Company, the Rights Agent and the
registered holders of the Right Certificates (and, prior to the Distribution Date, the Common Shares). 
 SECTION 31.
SEVERABILITY. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or other authority to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms,
provisions, covenants and restrictions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated; provided, however, that notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if
any such term, provision, covenant or restriction is held by such court or authority to be invalid, void or unenforceable and the Board determines in its good faith judgment that severing the invalid language from this Agreement would adversely
affect the purpose or effect of this Agreement, the right of redemption set forth in Section 23 hereof shall be reinstated (if earlier expired) and (without regard to whether earlier expired) shall not expire until the Close of Business on the
tenth Business Day following the date of such determination by the Board. Notwithstanding any other term of this Agreement, if any such excluded term, provision, covenant or restriction shall adversely affect the rights, immunities, duties or
obligations of the Rights Agent, the Rights Agent shall be entitled to resign immediately. 
 SECTION 32. GOVERNING
LAW. This Agreement, the Rights and each Right Certificate issued hereunder shall be deemed to be a contract made under the laws of the State of Delaware and for all purposes shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of such State applicable to contracts made and performed entirely within such State. 
 SECTION 33.
COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and each of such counterparts shall for all purposes be deemed to be an original, and all such counterparts shall together constitute but

 SECTION 34. DESCRIPTIVE HEADINGS. Descriptive headings
of the several Sections of this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not control or affect the meaning or construction of any of the provisions hereof. 

SECTION 35. FORCE MAJEURE. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Rights
Agent shall not be liable for any delays or failures in performance resulting from acts beyond its reasonable control including, without limitation, acts of God, terrorist acts, shortage of supply, breakdowns or malfunctions, interruptions or
malfunction of computer facilities, or loss of data due to power failures or mechanical difficulties with information storage or retrieval systems, labor difficulties, war, or civil unrest.

	Certificate No. R-             	 		 	         Rights

 NOT EXERCISABLE AFTER AUGUST 15, 2024, OR EARLIER IF REDEMPTION OR EXCHANGE OCCURS. THE RIGHTS ARE SUBJECT TO
REDEMPTION AT $0.001 PER RIGHT AND TO AMENDMENT AND EXCHANGE ON THE TERMS SET FORTH IN THE RIGHTS AGREEMENT. 
 RIGHT CERTIFICATE 

INSYS THERAPEUTICS, INC. 

This certifies that
                    or his, her or its registered assigns, is the registered owner of the number of Rights set forth above, each of which
entitles the owner thereof, subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Rights Agreement, dated as of August 15, 2014 (the “Rights Agreement”), between Insys Therapeutics, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the
“Company”), and Computershare Trust Company, N.A. (the “Rights Agent”), to purchase from the Company at any time after the Distribution Date (as such term is defined in the Rights Agreement) and prior to 5:00 p.m., New York time,
on August 15, 2024 at the office of the Rights Agent designated for such purpose, or at the office of its successor as Rights Agent, one one-hundredth of a fully paid non-assessable share of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock,
par value $0.001 per share (the “Preferred Shares”), of the Company, at a purchase price of $160 per one one-hundredth of a Preferred Share (the “Purchase Price”), upon presentation and surrender of this Right Certificate with
the Form of Election to Purchase duly executed. The number of Rights evidenced by this Right Certificate (and the number of one one-hundredths of a Preferred Share which may be purchased upon exercise hereof) set forth above, and the Purchase Price
set forth above, are the number and Purchase Price as of [                    ],
[            ], based on the Preferred Shares as constituted at such date. 

From and after the time any Person becomes an Acquiring Person, (as such terms are defined in the Rights Agreement), if the Rights evidenced
by this Right Certificate are beneficially owned by (i) an Acquiring Person or an Affiliate or Associate of any such Acquiring Person (as such terms are defined in the Rights Agreement), (ii) a transferee of any such Acquiring Person,
Associate or Affiliate who becomes a transferee after the Acquiring Person becomes such, or (iii) under certain circumstances specified in the Rights Agreement, a transferee of any such Acquiring Person, Associate or Affiliate who becomes a
transferee prior to or concurrently with the Acquiring Person becoming such, such Rights shall become null and void without any further action and no holder hereof shall have any right with respect to such Rights from and after the time any Person
becomes an Acquiring Person. 

  
 A-1 








 As provided in the Rights Agreement, the Purchase Price and the number of one one-hundredths of a
Preferred Share which may be purchased upon the exercise of the Rights evidenced by this Right Certificate are subject to modification and adjustment upon the happening of certain events. 

This Right Certificate is subject to all of the terms, provisions and conditions of the Rights Agreement, as amended from time to time, which
terms, provisions and conditions are hereby incorporated herein by reference and made a part hereof and to which Rights Agreement reference is hereby made for a full description of the rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties and
immunities hereunder of the Rights Agent, the Company and the holders of the Right Certificates. Copies of the Rights Agreement are on file at the principal executive offices of the Company and the above-mentioned offices of the Rights Agent. 

This Right Certificate, with or without other Right Certificates, upon surrender at the office of the Rights Agent designated for such
purpose, may be exchanged for another Right Certificate or Right Certificates of like tenor and date evidencing Rights entitling the holder to purchase a like aggregate number of Preferred Shares as the Rights evidenced by the Right Certificate or
Right Certificates surrendered shall have entitled such holder to purchase. If this Right Certificate shall be exercised in part, the holder shall be entitled to receive upon surrender hereof another Right Certificate or Right Certificates for the
number of whole Rights not exercised. 
 Subject to the provisions of the Rights Agreement, the Rights evidenced by this Certificate
(i) may be redeemed by the Company at a redemption price of $0.001 per Right or (ii) may be exchanged in whole or in part for shares of the Company’s Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share, or, upon circumstances set forth in the
Rights Agreement, cash, property or other securities of the Company, including fractions of a share of Preferred Stock. 
 No fractional
Preferred Shares will be issued upon the exercise of any Right or Rights evidenced hereby (other than fractions which are integral multiples of one one-hundredths of a Preferred Share, which may, at the election of the Company, be evidenced by
depositary receipts) but in lieu thereof a cash payment will be made, as provided in the Rights Agreement. 
 No holder of this Right
Certificate shall be entitled to vote or receive dividends or be deemed for any purpose the holder of the Preferred Shares or of any other securities of the Company which may at any time be issuable on the exercise hereof, nor shall anything
contained in the Rights Agreement or herein be construed to confer upon the holder hereof, as such, any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company or any right to vote for the election of directors or upon any matter submitted to stockholders at
any meeting thereof, or to give or withhold consent to any corporate action, or to receive notice of meetings or other actions affecting stockholders (except as provided in the Rights Agreement), or to receive dividends or subscription rights, or
otherwise, until the Right or Rights evidenced by this Right Certificate shall have been exercised as provided in the Rights Agreement. 

This Right Certificate shall not be valid or obligatory for any purpose until it shall have been countersigned by the Rights Agent.

 EXHIBIT B 

SUMMARY OF RIGHTS TO PURCHASE PREFERRED
SHARES 







 INSYS THERAPEUTICS, INC. 

SUMMARY OF RIGHTS TO PURCHASE 

PREFERRED SHARES 

(EXHIBIT B TO RIGHTS AGREEMENT) 

On August 7, 2014, the Board of Directors of INSYS THERAPEUTICS, INC. (the
“Company”) declared a dividend of one preferred share purchase right (a “Right”) for each outstanding share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Shares”), of
the Company. The dividend is effective as of September 1, 2014 (the “Record Date”) with respect to the stockholders of record on that date. The Rights will also attach to new Common Shares issued after the Record Date.
Each Right entitles the registered holder to purchase from the Company one one-hundredth of a share of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Preferred Shares”), of the Company at
a price of $160 per one one-hundredth of a Preferred Share (the “Purchase Price”), subject to adjustment. Each Preferred Share is designed to be the economic equivalent of 100 Common Shares. The description and terms of the
Rights are set forth in a Rights Agreement dated as of August 15, 2014 (the “Rights Agreement”), between the Company and Computershare Trust Company, N.A. (the “Rights Agent”). 

DETACHMENT AND TRANSFER OF RIGHTS 

Initially, the Rights will be evidenced by the stock certificates representing Common Shares then outstanding and no separate Right
Certificates will be distributed. Until the earlier to occur of (i) ten calendar days after a public announcement that a person or group of affiliated or associated persons, has become an “Acquiring Person” (as such term is defined in
the Rights Agreement) or (ii) 10 business days (or such later date as the Board may determine) following the commencement of, or announcement of an intention to make, a tender offer or exchange offer which would result in the beneficial
ownership by an Acquiring Person of 15% or more of the outstanding Common Shares (the earlier of such dates being called the “Distribution Date”), the Rights will be evidenced, with respect to any of the Common Share
certificates outstanding as of the Record Date, by such Common Share certificate. In general, an “Acquiring Person” is a person, the affiliates or associates of such person, or a group, which has acquired beneficial ownership of 15% (20%
in the case of a passive institutional investor) or more of the outstanding Common Shares; provided that certain “Excluded Persons” as defined in the Rights Agreement may have greater beneficial ownership without becoming an
“Acquiring Person”. Beneficial ownership of the Common Shares is generally determined consistent with the provisions of Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, which determines beneficial ownership of securities under the
federal securities laws, except that derivative interests in the Common Shares, such as swap arrangements that do not carry with them the right to control voting or disposition of the underlying securities, are also considered beneficial ownership
of the underlying Common Shares. 
 The Rights Agreement provides that, until the Distribution Date (or earlier redemption or expiration of
the Rights), the Rights will be transferable with and only with the Common Shares. 

  
 B-1 








 
Until the Distribution Date (or earlier redemption or expiration of the Rights), new Common Share certificates issued after the Record Date upon transfer or new issuance of Common Shares will
contain a notation incorporating the Rights Agreement by reference. Until the Distribution Date (or earlier redemption or expiration of the Rights) the surrender or transfer of any certificates for Common Shares outstanding as of the Record Date,
even without such notation or a copy of this Summary of Rights being attached thereto, will also constitute the transfer of the Rights associated with the Common Shares represented by such certificate. As soon as practicable following the
Distribution Date, separate certificates evidencing the Rights (“Right Certificates”) will be mailed to holders of record of the Common Shares as of the close of business on the Distribution Date and such separate Right Certificates alone
will evidence the Rights. 
 EXERCISABILITY OF RIGHTS 

The Rights are not exercisable until the Distribution Date. The Rights will expire on August 15, 2024 (the “Final Expiration
Date”), unless amended, unless the Final Expiration Date is extended or unless the Rights are earlier redeemed or exchanged by the Company, in each case as described below. Until a Right is exercised, the holder thereof, as such, will
have no rights as a stockholder of the Company, including, without limitation, the right to vote or to receive dividends. 
 The Purchase
Price payable, and the number of Preferred Shares or other securities or property issuable or payable, upon exercise of the Rights are subject to anti-dilution adjustments from time to time. The number of outstanding Rights and the number of one
one-hundredths of a Preferred Share issuable upon exercise of each Right are also subject to adjustment in the event of a stock split of the Common Shares or a stock dividend on the Common Shares payable in Common Shares, or subdivisions,
consolidations or combinations of the Common Shares occurring, in any such case, prior to the Distribution Date. With certain exceptions, no adjustment in the Purchase Price will be required until cumulative adjustments require an adjustment of at
least 1% in such Purchase Price. No fractional Preferred Shares will be issued (other than fractions which are integral multiples of one one-hundredths of a Preferred Share, which may, at the election of the Company, be evidenced by depositary
receipts) and in lieu thereof, an adjustment in cash will be made based on the market price of the Preferred Shares on the last trading day prior to the date of exercise. 

TERMS OF PREFERRED SHARES 

Preferred Shares purchasable upon exercise of the Rights will not be redeemable. Each Preferred Share will be entitled to a minimum
preferential quarterly dividend payment of $1.00 per share but will be entitled to an aggregate dividend of 100 times the dividend declared per Common Share. In the event of liquidation, the holders of the Preferred Shares will be entitled to a
minimum preferential liquidation payment of $100 per share but will be entitled to an aggregate payment of 100 times the payment made per Common Share. Each Preferred Share will have 100 votes, voting together with the Common Shares. In the event of
any merger, consolidation or other transaction in which Common Shares are exchanged, each Preferred Share will be entitled to receive 100 times the amount received per Common Share. These rights are protected by customary anti-dilution provisions.
Because of the nature of the Preferred Shares’ 

  
 B-2 








 
dividend, liquidation and voting rights, the value of the one one-hundredth interest in a Preferred Share purchasable upon exercise of each Right should approximate the value of one Common Share.
The Preferred Shares would rank junior to any other series of the Company’s preferred stock. 
 TRIGGER OF
FLIP-IN AND FLIP-OVER RIGHTS 
 In the event
that any person or group of affiliated or associated persons becomes an Acquiring Person, proper provision shall be made so that each holder of a Right, other than Rights beneficially owned by the Acquiring Person or any affiliate or associate
thereof (which will thereafter be void), will thereafter have the right to receive upon exercise that number of Common Shares having a market value of two times the exercise price of the Right. This right will commence on the date of public
announcement that a person has become an Acquiring Person. 
 In the event that the Company is acquired in a merger or other business
combination transaction or 50% or more of its consolidated assets or earning power are sold to an Acquiring Person, its affiliates or associates or certain other persons in which such persons have an interest, proper provision will be made so that
each such holder of a Right will thereafter have the right to receive, upon the exercise thereof at the then current exercise price of the Right, that number of shares of common stock of the acquiring company which at the time of such transaction
will have a market value of two times the exercise price of the Right. 
 REDEMPTION AND EXCHANGE
OF RIGHTS 
 At any time prior to the earliest of (i) the time a person becomes an Acquiring Person,
or (ii) the Final Expiration Date, the Board may redeem the Rights in whole, but not in part, at a price of $0.001 per Right (the “Redemption Price”). In general, the redemption of the Rights may be made effective at
such time on such basis with such conditions as the Board in its sole discretion may establish. Immediately upon any redemption of the Rights, the right to exercise the Rights will terminate and the only right of the holders of Rights will be to
receive the Redemption Price. 
 At any time after any person becomes an Acquiring Person and prior to the acquisition by such person of 50%
or more of the outstanding Common Shares, the Board may exchange the Rights (other than Rights owned by an Acquiring Person or its affiliate or associate that will have become void), in whole or in part, at an exchange ratio of one Common Share, or,
under circumstances set forth in the Rights Agreement, cash, property or other securities of the Company, including fractions of a Preferred Share (or of a share of another class or series of the Company’s preferred stock), per Right (with a
value equal to such Common Shares). 
 AMENDMENT OF RIGHTS 

The Rights Agreement and the terms of the Rights generally may be amended by the Board without the consent of the holders of the Rights, except
that from and after such time as any person becomes an Acquiring Person, no such amendment may adversely affect the interests of the holders of the Rights (excluding the interest of any Acquiring Person). 

  
 B-3

on August 18, 2014. A copy of the Rights Agreement is available from the Company by writing to: Insys Therapeutics, Inc., 1333 South Spectrum Blvd., Suite 100, Chandler, Arizona, 85286, Attention: General Counsel. This summary description of
