	Re:	 Master Confirmation—Uncollared Accelerated Share Repurchase 



This master confirmation (this “Master Confirmation”), dated as of October 9, 2015, is intended to set
forth certain terms and provisions of certain Transactions (each, a “Transaction”) entered into from time to time between J.P. Morgan Securities LLC (“JPMS”), as agent for JPMorgan Chase Bank, National Association,
London Branch (“Dealer”), and Monsanto Company, a Delaware corporation (“Counterparty”). This Master Confirmation, taken alone, is neither a commitment by either party to enter into any Transaction nor evidence of a
Transaction. The additional terms of any particular Transaction shall be set forth in a Supplemental Confirmation in the form of Schedule A hereto (a “Supplemental Confirmation”), which shall reference this Master Confirmation and
supplement, form a part of, and be subject to this Master Confirmation. This Master Confirmation and each Supplemental Confirmation together shall constitute a “Confirmation” as referred to in the Agreement specified below. 

The definitions and provisions contained in the 2002 ISDA Equity Derivatives Definitions (the “Equity
Definitions”), as published by the International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc., are incorporated into this Master Confirmation. This Master Confirmation and each Supplemental Confirmation evidence a complete binding agreement
between Counterparty and Dealer as to the subject matter and terms of each Transaction to which this Master Confirmation and such Supplemental Confirmation relate and shall supersede all prior or contemporaneous written or oral communications with
respect thereto. 
 This Master Confirmation and each Supplemental Confirmation supplement, form a part of, and are subject
to an agreement in the form of the 2002 ISDA Master Agreement (the “Agreement”) as if Dealer and Counterparty had executed the Agreement on the date of this Master Confirmation, without any Schedule, but with the elections set forth
in this Master Confirmation, including: 
 (i) The election of New York law as the governing law (without
reference to its choice of law provisions). 
 (ii) The election that subparagraph (ii) of
Section 2(c) will not apply to the Transactions. 
 (iii) Counterparty represents and warrants for
purposes of Section 3(c) of the Agreement as follows: 
 “(c) Absence of Litigation. There is not pending
or, to its knowledge, threatened against Counterparty or any of its Affiliates any action, suit or proceeding at law or in equity or before any court, tribunal, governmental body, agency or official or any arbitrator that is likely to affect
(i) the legality, validity or enforceability against it of this Agreement, any Confirmation under this Agreement or any Credit Support Document to which it is a party, or (ii) except for, with respect to Counterparty, any matters disclosed
by Counterparty in filings with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission prior to the date of this Agreement or prior to the date of entering into a Transaction, its ability to perform its obligations under this Agreement, any
Confirmation under this Agreement or such Credit Support Document.” 
 (iv) The election that the
“Cross Default” provisions of Section 5(a)(vi) of the Agreement shall apply to Dealer, with a “Threshold Amount” of 3% of shareholders’ equity for JPMorgan Chase & Co. (provided that (a) the phrase
“, or becoming capable at such time of being declared,” shall be deleted from 







 
clause (1) of such Section 5(a)(vi) of the Agreement, (b) “Specified Indebtedness” shall have the meaning specified in Section 14 of the Agreement, except that such
term shall not include obligations in respect of deposits received in the ordinary course of Dealer’s banking business and (c) the following sentence shall be added to the end thereof: “Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Event of
Default shall not occur under either (1) or (2) above if (a) the event or condition referred to in (1) or the failure to pay referred to in (2) is caused by an error or omission of an administrative or operational nature,
(b) funds were available to Dealer to enable it to make the relevant payment when due, and (c) such payment is made within three Local Business Days after notice of such failure is given by Counterparty.”). 

(v) Section 7 of the Agreement is hereby amended by deleting the third paragraph thereof. 

(vi) “Affiliate” will have the meaning specified in Section 14 of the Agreement, except that for
purposes of Section 3(c) of the Agreement as set forth in clause (iii) above, “Affiliate” means, with respect to any person, any entity controlled, directly or indirectly by such person. For this purpose, “control”
means ownership of a majority of the voting power of the entity or person. 
 (vii) For purposes of
Section 3(f) of the Agreement, Dealer makes the following representation: 
 It is a national banking
association organized under the laws of the United States. 
 (viii) For purposes of Section 3(f) of the
Agreement, Counterparty makes the following representation: 
 It is a U.S. person, and it is a corporation
organized under the State of Delaware. 
 (ix) Each party agrees to deliver a complete and accurate United
States Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 to the other party upon execution of this Agreement. 
 The Transactions shall be
the sole Transactions under the Agreement. If there exists any ISDA Master Agreement between Dealer and Counterparty or any confirmation or other agreement between Dealer and Counterparty pursuant to which an ISDA Master Agreement is deemed to exist
between Dealer and Counterparty, then notwithstanding anything to the contrary in such ISDA Master Agreement, such confirmation or agreement or any other agreement to which Dealer and Counterparty are parties, the Transactions shall not be
considered Transactions under, or otherwise governed by, such existing or deemed ISDA Master Agreement, and the occurrence of any Event of Default or Termination Event under the Agreement with respect to either party or any Transaction shall not, by
itself, give rise to any right or obligation under any such other agreement or deemed agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any other agreement between the parties or their Affiliates, the Transactions shall not be “Specified
Transactions” (or similarly treated) under any other agreement between the parties or their Affiliates. 
 All
provisions contained or incorporated by reference in the Agreement shall govern this Master Confirmation and each Supplemental Confirmation except as expressly modified herein or in the related Supplemental Confirmation. 

If, in relation to any Transaction to which this Master Confirmation and a Supplemental Confirmation relate, there is any
inconsistency between the Agreement, this Master Confirmation, such Supplemental Confirmation and the Equity Definitions, the following will prevail for purposes of such Transaction in the order of precedence indicated: (i) such Supplemental
Confirmation; (ii) this Master Confirmation; (iii) the Equity Definitions; and (iv) the Agreement. 
 1. Each Transaction

such Exchange Business Day for any reason or is, in the Calculation Agent’s determination, erroneous, such VWAP Price shall be as reasonably determined in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner by the Calculation Agent (all such
trades other than any trades described in clauses (i) to (iv) above, “Rule 10b-18 Eligible Transactions”).

		
	 Forward Price:
	  	 For each Transaction, the arithmetic average of the VWAP Prices for all of the Calculation Dates in the Calculation Period for such Transaction, subject to

Transaction.

		
	 Calculation Period Start Date:
	  	 For each Transaction, as set forth in the related Supplemental Confirmation.

		
	 Termination Date:
	  	 For each Transaction, the Scheduled Termination Date for such Transaction; provided that Dealer shall have the right to designate any Calculation Date on or
after the First Acceleration Date to be the Termination Date for such Transaction (the “Accelerated Termination Date”) by delivering notice to Counterparty of any such designation prior to 6:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the
Calculation Date immediately following the designated Accelerated Termination Date.

		
	 Calculation Dates:
	  	 For each Transaction, any date that is both an Exchange Business Day and is set forth as a Calculation Date in the related Supplemental
Confirmation.

		
	 Scheduled Termination Date:
	  	 For each Transaction, as set forth in the related Supplemental Confirmation, subject to postponement as provided in “Valuation Disruption”
below.

		
	 First Acceleration Date:
	  	 For each Transaction, as set forth in the related Supplemental Confirmation.

		
	 Valuation Disruption:
	  	 The definition of “Market Disruption Event” in Section 6.3(a) of the Equity Definitions is hereby amended by deleting the words “at any time
during the one-hour period that ends at the relevant Valuation Time, Latest Exercise Time, Knock-in Valuation Time or Knock-out Valuation Time, as the case may be” and inserting the words “at any time on any Scheduled Trading Day during
the Calculation Period or Settlement Valuation Period” after the word “material,” in the third line thereof.

		
		  	 Section 6.3(d) of the Equity Definitions is hereby amended by deleting the remainder of the provision following the term
“Scheduled Closing Time” in the fourth line thereof.

		
		  	 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Equity Definitions, if a Disrupted Day occurs (i) in the Calculation Period, the
Calculation Agent may, in its good faith and commercially reasonable judgment, postpone the Scheduled Termination Date to the next Calculation Date that is not a Disrupted Day, or (ii) in the Settlement Valuation Period, the Calculation Agent
may extend the Settlement Valuation Period. The Calculation Agent may also determine that (i) such Disrupted Day is a Disrupted Day in full, in which case the VWAP Price for such Disrupted Day shall not be included for purposes of determining
the Forward Price or the Settlement Price, as



  
 4 









			
		
		  	 the case may be, or (ii) such Disrupted Day is a Disrupted Day only in part, in which case the VWAP Price for such Disrupted Day shall be determined by the
Calculation Agent based on Rule 10b-18 Eligible Transactions in the Shares on such Disrupted Day taking into account the nature and duration of the relevant Market Disruption Event, and the weighting of the VWAP Price for the relevant Calculation
Dates during the Calculation Period or the Settlement Valuation Period, as the case may be, shall be adjusted in a commercially reasonable manner by the Calculation Agent for purposes of determining the Forward Price or the Settlement Price, as the
case may be, with such adjustments based on, among other factors, the duration of any Market Disruption Event and the volume, historical trading patterns and price of the Shares. Any Exchange Business Day on which, as of the date hereof, the
Exchange is scheduled to close prior to its normal close of trading shall be deemed not to be an Exchange Business Day; if a closure of the Exchange prior to its normal close of trading on any Exchange Business Day is scheduled following the date
hereof, then such Exchange Business Day shall be deemed to be a Disrupted Day in full.

		
		  	 If a Disrupted Day occurs during the Calculation Period for any Transaction or the Settlement Valuation Period for any Transaction, as the
case may be, and each of the nine immediately following Scheduled Trading Days is a Disrupted Day (a “Disruption Event”), then the Calculation Agent, in its good faith and commercially reasonable discretion, may deem such Disruption
Event (and each consecutive Disrupted Day thereafter) to be either (x) a Potential Adjustment Event in respect of such Transaction or (y) an Additional Termination Event in respect of such Transaction, with Counterparty as the sole
Affected Party and such Transaction as the sole Affected Transaction.

		
	 Settlement Terms.
	  	
		
	 Settlement Procedures:
	  	 For each Transaction:

		
		  	 (i)     if the Number of Shares to be Delivered for such Transaction is positive, Physical
Settlement shall be applicable to such Transaction; provided that the “Representation and Agreement” contained in Section 9.11 of the Equity Definitions shall be modified by excluding any representations therein relating to
restrictions obligations, limitations or requirements under applicable securities laws arising as a result of the fact that Buyer is the Issuer of the Shares; or

		
		  	 (ii)    if the Number of Shares to be Delivered for such Transaction is negative, then Counterparty
Settlement Provisions in Annex A hereto shall apply to such Transaction.



  
 5 









			
	 Number of Shares to be Delivered:
	  	 For each Transaction, a number of Shares (rounded down to the nearest whole number) equal to (a)(i) the Prepayment Amount for such Transaction, divided
by (ii)(A) the Forward Price for such Transaction minus (B) the Forward Price Adjustment Amount for such Transaction, minus (b) the number of Initial Shares for such Transaction; provided that if the result of the calculation in
clause (a)(ii) is equal to or less than the Floor Price for such Transaction, then the Number of Shares to be Delivered for such Transaction shall be determined as if clause (a)(ii) were replaced with “(ii) the Floor Price for such
Transaction”. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Forward Price Adjustment Amount for any Transaction is a negative number, clause (a)(ii) of the immediately preceding sentence shall be equal to (A) the Forward Price for such Transaction,
plus (B) the absolute value of the Forward Price Adjustment Amount.

		
	 Floor Price:
	  	 For each Transaction, as set forth in the related Supplemental Confirmation.

		
	 Excess Dividend Amount:
	  	 For the avoidance of doubt, all references to the Excess Dividend Amount shall be deleted from Section 9.2(a)(iii) of the Equity Definitions.

		
	 Settlement Date:
	  	 For each Transaction, if the Number of Shares to be Delivered for such Transaction is positive, the date that is four Clearance System Business Days following
the Termination Date for such Transaction.

		
	 Settlement Currency:
	  	 USD

		
	 Initial Share Delivery:
	  	 For each Transaction, Dealer shall deliver a number of Shares equal to the Initial Shares for such Transaction to Counterparty on the Initial Share Delivery
Date for such Transaction in accordance with Section 9.4 of the Equity Definitions, with such Initial Share Delivery Date deemed to be a “Settlement Date” for purposes of such Section 9.4.

		
	 Initial Share Delivery Date:
	  	 For each Transaction, as set forth in the related Supplemental Confirmation.

		
	 Initial Shares:
	  	 For each Transaction, as set forth in the related Supplemental Confirmation.

		
	 Share Adjustments.
	  	
		
	 Potential Adjustment Event:
	  	 In addition to the events described in Section 11.2(e) of the Equity Definitions, it shall constitute an additional Potential Adjustment Event if (x) the
Scheduled Termination Date for any Transaction is postponed pursuant to “Valuation Disruption” above (including, for the avoidance of doubt, pursuant to Section 7 hereof), (y) a Regulatory Disruption as described in Section 7 occurs or (z)
a Disruption Event occurs. In the case of any event described in clause (x), (y) or (z) above occurs, the Calculation Agent may, in its commercially reasonable judgment, adjust any relevant terms of such
Transaction



  
 6 









			
		
		  	 as necessary to preserve as nearly as practicable the fair value of such Transaction to Dealer prior to such postponement, Regulatory Disruption or Disruption
Event, as the case may be; provided that the Calculation Agent shall not adjust any of the dates identified as Calculation Dates in the related Supplemental Confirmation.

		
	 Excess Dividend:
	  	 For any calendar quarter, any dividend or distribution on the Shares with an ex-dividend date occurring during such calendar quarter (other than any dividend or
distribution of the type described in Section 11.2(e)(i) or Section 11.2(e)(ii)(A) of the Equity Definitions or any Extraordinary Dividend) (a “Dividend”) the amount or value of which per Share (as determined by the Calculation
Agent), when aggregated with the amount or value (as determined by the Calculation Agent) of any and all previous Dividends with ex-dividend dates occurring in the same calendar quarter, exceeds the Ordinary Dividend Amount. “Extraordinary
Dividend” means the per Share cash dividend or distribution, or a portion thereof, declared by Counterparty on the Shares that is classified by the board of directors of Counterparty as an “extraordinary” dividend.

		
	 Consequences of Excess Dividend:
	  	 The declaration by the Issuer of any Excess Dividend, the ex-dividend date for which occurs or is scheduled to occur during the Relevant Dividend Period for any
Transaction, shall, at Dealer’s election in its sole judgment, either (x) constitute an Additional Termination Event in respect of such Transaction, with Counterparty as the sole Affected Party and such Transaction as the sole Affected
Transaction or (y) result in an adjustment, by the Calculation Agent, to the Floor Price as the Calculation Agent determines appropriate to account for the economic effect on such Transaction of such Excess Dividend; provided, that Dealer’s
election must be made within 30 days after the first public announcement of such Excess Dividend.

		
	 Ordinary Dividend Amount:
	  	 For each Transaction, as set forth in the related Supplemental Confirmation.

		
	 Method of Adjustment:
	  	 Calculation Agent Adjustment

		
	 Early Ordinary Dividend Payment:
	  	 For each Transaction, if an ex-dividend date for any Dividend that is not (x) an Excess Dividend, (y) a dividend or distribution of the type described in
Section 11.2(e)(i) or Section 11.2(e)(ii)(A) of the Equity Definitions and (z) an Extraordinary Dividend, occurs during any calendar quarter occurring (in whole or in part) during the Relevant Dividend Period for such Transaction and is prior to the
Scheduled Ex-Dividend Date for such Transaction for the relevant calendar quarter (as determined by the Calculation Agent), the Calculation Agent shall make such adjustment to the exercise, settlement, payment or any other terms of the relevant
Transaction as the Calculation Agent determines appropriate to account for the economic effect on such Transaction of such event.



  
 7 









			
		
	 Scheduled Ex-Dividend Dates:
	  	 For each Transaction, as set forth in the related Supplemental Confirmation for each calendar quarter.

		
	 Relevant Dividend Period:

an abandonment of such intention)” and (c) Sections 12.3(a) and 12.3(d) of the Equity Definitions shall each be amended by replacing each occurrence of the words “Tender Offer Date” by “Announcement Date.”

facilitate, a distribution of its securities, a self tender offer or a third-party tender offer in violation of the Exchange Act or (C) to create actual or apparent trading activity in the Shares (or any security convertible into or
exchangeable for the Shares) or to raise or depress or otherwise manipulate the price of the Shares (or any security convertible into or exchangeable for the Shares). 



 

	 	(iv)	 Counterparty (A) is capable of evaluating investment risks independently, both in general and with regard to all transactions and investment
strategies involving a security or securities; (B) will exercise independent judgment in evaluating the recommendations of any broker-dealer or its associated persons, unless it has otherwise notified the broker-dealer in writing; and
(C) has total assets of at least USD 50,000,000 as of the date hereof. 


  

	 	(v)	 As of the Trade Date for each Transaction hereunder, and as of the date of any election with respect to any Transaction hereunder, Counterparty is
in compliance in all material respects with its reporting obligations under the Exchange Act. 


  

	 	(vi)	 Counterparty has made, and will make, all filings required to be made by it with the Securities and Exchange Commission, any securities exchange or
any other regulatory body with respect to each Transaction. 


  

	 	(vii)	 The Shares are not, and Counterparty will not cause the Shares to be, subject to a “restricted period” (as defined in Regulation M
promulgated under the Exchange Act) at any time during any Regulation M Period (as defined below) for any Transaction unless Counterparty has provided written notice to Dealer of such restricted period not later than the Scheduled Trading Day
immediately preceding the first day of such “restricted period”; Counterparty acknowledges that any such notice may cause a Disrupted Day to occur 



  
 12 









	 	 
pursuant to Section 7 below; accordingly, Counterparty acknowledges that its delivery of such notice must comply with the standards set forth in Section 8 below. Counterparty is not
currently contemplating any “distribution” (as defined in Regulation M promulgated under the Exchange Act) of Shares, or any security for which Shares are a “reference security” (as defined in Regulation M promulgated under the
Exchange Act). “Regulation M Period” means, for any Transaction, (A) the Relevant Period (as defined below) for such Transaction, (B) the Settlement Valuation Period, if any, for such Transaction and (C) the Seller
Termination Purchase Period (as defined below), if any, for such Transaction. “Relevant Period” means, for any Transaction, the period commencing on the Calculation Period Start Date for such Transaction and ending on the later of
(1) the earlier of (x) the Scheduled Termination Date and (y) the last Additional Relevant Day (as specified in the related Supplemental Confirmation) for such Transaction, or such earlier day as elected by Dealer and communicated to
Counterparty on such day (or, if later, the First Acceleration Date without regard to any acceleration thereof pursuant to “Special Provisions for Acquisition Transaction Announcements” below) and (2) if Section 15 is applicable
to such Transaction, the date on which all deliveries owed pursuant to Section 15 have been made. 


  

	 	(viii)	 As of the Trade Date, the Prepayment Date, the Initial Share Delivery Date, the Settlement Date, any Cash Settlement Payment Date and any
Settlement Method Election Date for each Transaction, Counterparty is not “insolvent” (as such term is defined under Section 101(32) of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code (Title 11 of the United States Code) (the “Bankruptcy
Code”)) and Counterparty would be able to purchase a number of Shares with a value equal to the Prepayment Amount in compliance with the laws of the jurisdiction of Counterparty’s incorporation. 



 

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


  

	 	(x)	 Counterparty has not entered, and will not enter, into any repurchase transaction with respect to the Shares (or any security convertible into or
exchangeable for the Shares) (including, without limitation, any agreements similar to the Transactions described herein), except the Other Specified Repurchase Agreement (as defined below), where any initial hedge period, calculation period,
relevant period, settlement valuation period or seller termination purchase period (each however defined) in such other transaction will overlap at any time (including, without limitation, as a result of extensions in such initial hedge period,
calculation period, relevant period, settlement valuation period or seller termination purchase period as provided in the relevant agreements) with any Relevant Period, any Settlement Valuation Period (if applicable) or any Seller Termination
Purchase Period (if applicable) under this Master Confirmation. In the event that the initial hedge period, relevant period, calculation period or settlement valuation period in any other transaction overlaps with any Relevant Period, any Settlement
Valuation Period (if applicable) or any Seller Termination Purchase Period (if applicable) under this Master Confirmation as a result of any postponement of the Scheduled Termination Date or extension of the Settlement Valuation Period pursuant to
“Valuation Disruption” above or any analogous provision in such other transaction, Counterparty shall promptly amend such other transaction (excluding the Other Specified Repurchase Agreement) to avoid any such overlap. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, nothing in this Section 6(b)(x) shall prohibit or apply to the repurchase of Shares by Counterparty from holders of awards granted under Counterparty’s equity incentive plans for the purpose of paying the tax withholding
obligations arising from vesting of, or paying the exercise price in connection with the exercise of, or reacquiring Shares as a result of the forfeiture of, any such awards (collectively, “Permitted Purchases”).



  

	 	(xi)	 Counterparty shall, at least one day prior to the first day of the Calculation Period, the Settlement Valuation Period, if any, or the Seller
Termination Purchase Period, if any, for 



  
 13 









	 	 
any Transaction, notify Dealer of the total number of Shares purchased in Rule 10b-18 purchases of blocks pursuant to the once-a-week block exception set forth in paragraph (b)(4) of Rule 10b-18
under the Exchange Act (“Rule 10b-18”) by or for Counterparty or any of its “affiliated purchasers” (as defined in Rule 10b-18) during each of the four calendar weeks preceding such day and during the calendar week in
which such day occurs (“Rule 10b-18 purchase” and “blocks” each being used as defined in Rule 10b-18), which notice shall be substantially in the form set forth in Schedule B hereto. 



 

	 	(xii)	 As of the Trade Date for each Transaction hereunder, and as of the date of any election with respect to any Transaction hereunder, there has not
been any Merger Announcement (as defined below). 


  

	 	(c)	 In addition to the representations, warranties and covenants in this Agreement, Dealer represents, warrants and covenants to Counterparty that:



  

	 	(i)	 In addition to the covenants in the Agreement and herein, Dealer agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts, during the Calculation Period and
any Settlement Valuation Period (as defined in Annex A) for any Transaction, to make all purchases of Shares in connection with such Transaction in a manner that would comply with the limitations set forth in clauses (b)(1), (b)(2), (b)(3) and
(b)(4) and (c) of Rule 10b-18, as if such rule were applicable to such purchases and taking into account any applicable Securities and Exchange Commission no-action letters as appropriate, and subject to any delays between the execution and
reporting of a trade of the Shares on the Exchange and other circumstances beyond Dealer’s control; provided that, during the Calculation Period, the foregoing agreement shall not apply to purchases made to dynamically hedge for Dealer’s
own account or the account of its affiliate(s) the optionality arising under a Transaction (including, for the avoidance of doubt, timing optionality); provided further that, without limiting the generality of the first sentence of this
Section 6(c)(i), Dealer shall not be responsible for any failure to comply with Rule 10b-18(b)(3) to the extent any transaction that was executed (or deemed to be executed) by or on behalf of Counterparty or an “affiliated purchaser”
(as defined under Rule 10b-18) pursuant to a separate agreement is not deemed to be an “independent bid” or an “independent transaction” for purposes of Rule 10b-18(b)(3). 



 

	 	(ii)	 In connection with each Transaction, Dealer represents and warrants to Counterparty that it has not, at any time before the public announcement on
the Trade Date by Counterparty of its entry into such Transaction, discussed any offsetting transaction(s) in respect of such Transaction with any third party. 



 

	 	(iii)	 Dealer hereby represents and covenants to Counterparty that it has implemented policies and procedures, taking into consideration the nature of its
business, reasonably designed to ensure that individuals making investment decisions related to any Transaction do not have access to material nonpublic information regarding Issuer or the Shares. 



 

	 	(iv)	 Within one Exchange Business Day of purchasing any Shares on behalf of Counterparty pursuant to the once-a-week block exception set forth in
paragraph (b)(4) of Rule 10b-18, Dealer shall notify Counterparty of the total number of Shares so purchased. 


  

	 	(v)	 On the first Exchange Business Day of each week, Dealer shall provide weekly reports (the “Weekly Reports”) in connection with
such Transaction to the Counterparty and to such other persons or agents of the Counterparty as the Counterparty shall reasonably designate in writing, by electronic mail to the Counterparty or its designee. Each weekly report shall include the ADTV
in the Shares for each Scheduled Trading Day during the immediately preceding week (as defined and determined in accordance with Rule 10b-18, as defined herein), the VWAP Price for each such Scheduled Trading Day and the high and low price on each
such Scheduled Trading Day. For the avoidance of doubt and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the two immediately preceding sentences, the 



  
 14 









	 	 
VWAP Price for purposes of this Master Confirmation shall be determined pursuant the language opposite the caption “VWAP Price” in Section 1 of this Master Confirmation under the
heading “Valuation” and not on the basis of, or by reference to, the VWAP Price set forth in any Weekly Report. 


  

	7.	 Regulatory Disruption. In the event Dealer concludes, in its good faith, reasonable judgment, based on the advice of counsel, that it
is appropriate with respect to any legal, regulatory or self-regulatory requirements or related policies and procedures similarly applicable to accelerated share repurchase transactions and consistently applied (whether or not such requirements,
policies or procedures are imposed by law or have been voluntarily adopted by Dealer) for it to refrain from or decrease any market activity on any Scheduled Trading Day or Days during the Calculation Period or, if applicable, the Settlement
Valuation Period, Dealer may by written notice to Counterparty elect to deem that a Market Disruption Event has occurred and will be continuing on such Scheduled Trading Day or Days.Dealer shall notify Counterparty as soon as practicable (but in no
event later than one Trading Day) that a Regulatory Disruption has occurred and the Scheduled Trading Days affected by it, provided that the Dealer shall not be obligated to disclose any proprietary or confidential models or any other confidential
or proprietary information, in each case, used by it for such determination. 


  

	8.	 10b5-1 Plan. Counterparty represents, warrants and covenants to Dealer that: 



 

	 	(a)	 Counterparty is entering into this Master Confirmation and each Transaction hereunder in good faith and not as part of a plan or scheme to evade
the prohibitions of Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act (“Rule 10b5-1”) or any other antifraud or anti-manipulation provisions of the federal or applicable state securities laws and that it has not entered into or altered and will
not enter into or alter any corresponding or hedging transaction or position with respect to the Shares. For the avoidance of doubt, the parties hereto acknowledge that entry into any Other Specified Repurchase Agreement (as defined below) shall not
fall within the ambit of the previous sentence. Counterparty acknowledges that it is the intent of the parties that each Transaction entered into under this Master Confirmation comply with the requirements of paragraphs (c)(1)(i)(A) and (B) of
Rule 10b5-1 and each Transaction entered into under this Master Confirmation shall be interpreted to comply with the requirements of Rule 10b5-1(c). “Other Specified Repurchase Agreement” means, for any Transaction, any other
prepaid variable share repurchase transaction entered into on the Trade Date for such Transaction, which shall not have any calculation dates (however defined) thereunder that are also Calculation Dates hereunder. 



 

	 	(b)	 During the Calculation Period and the Settlement Valuation Period, if any, for any Transaction and in connection with the delivery of any
Alternative Delivery Units for any Transaction, Dealer (or its agent or Affiliate) may effect transactions in Shares in connection with such Transaction. The timing of such transactions by Dealer, the price paid or received per Share pursuant to
such transactions and the manner in which such transactions are made, including, without limitation, whether such transactions are made on any securities exchange or privately, shall be within the sole judgment of Dealer. Counterparty acknowledges
and agrees that all such transactions shall be made in Dealer’s sole judgment and for Dealer’s own account. 


  

	 	(c)	 Counterparty does not have, and shall not attempt to exercise, any control or influence over how, when or whether Dealer (or its agent or
Affiliate) makes any “purchases or sales” (within the meaning of Rule 10b5-1(c)(1)(i)(B)(3)) in connection with any Transaction, including, without limitation, over how, when or whether Dealer (or its agent or Affiliate) enters into any
hedging transactions. Counterparty represents and warrants that it has consulted with its own advisors as to the legal aspects of its adoption and implementation of this Master Confirmation and each Supplemental Confirmation under Rule 10b5-1.



  

	 	(d)	 Counterparty acknowledges and agrees that any amendment, modification, waiver or termination of this Master Confirmation or any Supplemental
Confirmation must be effected in accordance with the requirements for the amendment or termination of a “plan” as defined in Rule 10b5-1(c). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any such amendment, modification, waiver or
termination shall be made in good faith and not as part of a plan or scheme to evade the 



  
 15 









	 	 
prohibitions of Rule 10b-5, and no such amendment, modification or waiver shall be made at any time at which Counterparty or any officer, director, manager or similar person of Counterparty is
aware of any material non-public information regarding Counterparty or the Shares. 


  

	 	(e)	 Counterparty shall not, directly or indirectly, communicate any information relating to the Shares or any Transaction (including, without
limitation, any notices required by Section 10(a)) to any employee of Dealer, other than as set forth in the Communications Procedures attached as Annex B hereto. 



 

	9.	 Counterparty Purchases. Counterparty (or any “affiliate” or “affiliated purchaser” as defined in Rule 10b-18)
shall not, without the prior written consent of Dealer, directly or indirectly (including, without limitation, by means of a derivative instrument) purchase, offer to purchase, place any bid or limit order that would effect a purchase of, or
commence any tender offer relating to, any Shares (or equivalent interest, including, without limitation, a unit of beneficial interest in a trust or limited partnership or a depository share), listed contracts on the Shares or securities that are
convertible into, or exchangeable or exercisable for Shares (including, without limitation, any Rule 10b-18 purchases of blocks (as defined in Rule 10b-18)) during any Relevant Period, any Settlement Valuation Period (if applicable) or any Seller
Termination Purchase Period (if applicable), under this Master Confirmation except pursuant to any Other Specified Repurchase Agreement that is intended to comply with the requirements of Rule 10b5-1(c) of the Exchange Act. Nothing in this
Section 9 shall prohibit or apply to Permitted Purchases or to any acquisition, exercise, exchange or other transaction in connection with any awards under any equity incentive plan or program of Counterparty. 



Notwithstanding the immediately preceding paragraph or anything herein to the contrary (i) an agent independent of
Counterparty may purchase Shares effected by or for an issuer plan Counterparty in accordance with the requirements of Section 10b-18(a)(13)(ii) under the Exchange Act (with “issuer plan” and “agent independent of
Counterparty” each being used herein as defined in Rule 10b-18), and (ii) Counterparty or any “affiliated purchaser” may purchase Shares in (x) unsolicited transactions or (y) privately negotiated (off-market)
transactions, in each case, that are not “Rule 10b-18 purchases” (as defined in Rule 10b-18), in each case, without Dealer’s consent. 
  

	10.	 Special Provisions for Merger Transactions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in the Equity Definitions:



  

	 	(a)	 Counterparty agrees that it: 


  

	 	(i)	 will not during the period commencing on the Trade Date for any Transaction and ending on the last day of the Relevant Period or, if applicable,
the later of the last day of the Settlement Valuation Period and the last day of the Seller Termination Purchase Period, for such Transaction make, or to the extent within Counterparty’s reasonable control, permit to be made, any public
announcement (as defined in Rule 165(f) under the Securities Act) of any Merger Transaction or potential Merger Transaction (a “Merger Announcement”) unless such Merger Announcement is made prior to the opening or after the close of
the regular trading session on the Exchange for the Shares; 


  

	 	(ii)	 shall promptly (but in any event prior to the next opening of the regular trading session on the Exchange) notify Dealer following any such Merger
Announcement that such Merger Announcement has been made; and 


  

	 	(iii)	 shall promptly (but in any event prior to the next opening of the regular trading session on the Exchange) provide Dealer with written notice
specifying (i) Counterparty’s average daily Rule 10b-18 Purchases (as defined in Rule 10b-18) during the three full calendar months immediately preceding the announcement date of any Merger Transaction or potential Merger Transaction that
were not effected through Dealer or its Affiliates and (ii) the number of Shares purchased pursuant to the proviso in Rule 10b-18(b)(4) under the Exchange Act for the three full calendar months preceding the announcement date of any Merger
Transaction or potential Merger Transaction. Such written notice shall be 



  
 16 









	 	 
deemed to be a certification by Counterparty to Dealer that such information is true and correct. In addition, Counterparty shall promptly notify Dealer of the earlier to occur of the completion
of such transaction and the completion of the vote by target shareowners. 


  

	 	(b)	 Counterparty acknowledges that any such Merger Announcement or delivery of a notice with respect thereto may cause the terms of any Transaction to
be adjusted or such Transaction to be terminated; accordingly, Counterparty acknowledges that its delivery of such notice must comply with the standards set forth in Section 8 above. 



 

	 	(c)	 Upon the occurrence of any Merger Announcement (whether made by Counterparty or a third party), Dealer in its sole judgment may (i) make
commercially reasonable adjustments to the terms of any Transaction (other than the dates identified as Calculation Dates in the related Supplemental Confirmation), including, without limitation, the Scheduled Termination Date or the Forward Price
Adjustment Amount, and/or suspend the Calculation Period and/or any Settlement Valuation Period or (ii) treat the occurrence of such Merger Announcement as an Additional Termination Event with Counterparty as the sole Affected Party and the
Transactions hereunder as the Affected Transactions and with the amount under Section 6(e) of the Agreement determined taking into account the fact that the Calculation Period or Settlement Valuation Period, as the case may be, had fewer
Scheduled Trading Days than originally anticipated. 


 “Merger Transaction” means any
merger, acquisition or similar transaction involving a recapitalization as contemplated by Rule 10b-18(a)(13)(iv) under the Exchange Act, other than, solely for purposes of this Section 10, any such transaction in which the consideration
consists solely of cash and there is no valuation period. 
  

	11.	 Special Provisions for Acquisition Transaction Announcements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in the Equity
Definitions: 


  

	 	(a)	 If an Acquisition Transaction Announcement occurs on or prior to the Settlement Date for any Transaction, then the Calculation Agent shall make
such adjustments in a commercially reasonable manner, to the exercise, settlement, payment or any other terms of such Transaction (including, without limitation, the Forward Price Adjustment Amount) as the Calculation Agent determines appropriate,
at such time or at multiple times as the Calculation Agent determines appropriate, to account for the economic effect on such Transaction of such Acquisition Transaction Announcement in accordance with “Method of Adjustment” as set forth
in Section 1 above, as amended pursuant to Section 22(a)-(c) of this Master Confirmation. 


  

	 	(b)	 “Acquisition Transaction Announcement” means (i) the announcement of an Acquisition Transaction or an event that, if
consummated, would result in an Acquisition Transaction, (ii) an announcement that Counterparty or any of its subsidiaries has entered into an agreement, a letter of intent or an understanding designed to result in an Acquisition Transaction,
(iii) the announcement of the intention to solicit or enter into, or to explore strategic alternatives or other similar undertaking that may include, an Acquisition Transaction, (iv) any other announcement that in the reasonable judgment
of the Calculation Agent is reasonably likely to result in an Acquisition Transaction, or (v) any announcement of any change or amendment to any previous Acquisition Transaction Announcement (including any announcement of the abandonment of any
such previously announced Acquisition Transaction, agreement, letter of intent, understanding or intention). For the avoidance of doubt, announcements as used in the definition of Acquisition Transaction Announcement refer to any public announcement
whether made by the Issuer or a third party. 


  

	 	(c)	 “Acquisition Transaction” means (i) any Merger Event (for purposes of this definition the definition of Merger Event shall be
read with the references therein to “100%” being replaced by “30%” and references to “50%” being replaced by “75%” and without reference to the clause beginning immediately following the definition of Reverse
Merger therein to the end of such definition), Tender Offer or Merger Transaction or any other transaction involving the merger of Counterparty with or into any third party, (ii) the sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of




  
 17 









	 	 
Counterparty, (iii) a recapitalization, reclassification, binding share exchange or other similar transaction with respect to Counterparty, (iv) any acquisition by Counterparty or any
of its subsidiaries where the aggregate consideration transferable by Counterparty or its subsidiaries exceeds 50% of the market capitalization of Counterparty, (v) any lease, exchange, transfer, disposition (including, without limitation, by
way of spin-off or distribution) of assets (including, without limitation, any capital stock or other ownership interests in subsidiaries) or other similar event by Counterparty or any of its subsidiaries where the aggregate consideration
transferable or receivable by or to Counterparty or its subsidiaries exceeds 25% of the market capitalization of Counterparty (measured as of the relevant date of announcement) or (vi) any transaction in which Counterparty or its board of
directors has a legal obligation to make a recommendation to its shareowners in respect of such transaction (whether pursuant to Rule 14e-2 under the Exchange Act or otherwise). 



 

	12.	 Acknowledgments. 


  

	 	(a)	 The parties hereto intend for: 


  

	 	(i)	 each Transaction to be a “securities contract” as defined in Section 741(7) of the Bankruptcy Code and a “forward
contract” as defined in Section 101(25) of the Bankruptcy Code, and the parties hereto to be entitled to the protections afforded by, among other Sections, Sections 362(b)(6), 362(b)(27), 362(o), 546(e), 546(j), 555, 556, 560 and 561 of
the Bankruptcy Code; 


  

	 	(ii)	 the Agreement to be a “master netting agreement” as defined in Section 101(38A) of the Bankruptcy Code; 



 

	 	(iii)	 a party’s right to liquidate, terminate or accelerate any Transaction, net out or offset termination values or payment amounts, and to
exercise any other remedies upon the occurrence of any Event of Default or Termination Event under the Agreement with respect to the other party or any Extraordinary Event that results in the termination or cancellation of any Transaction to
constitute a “contractual right” (as defined in the Bankruptcy Code); and 


  

	 	(iv)	 all payments for, under or in connection with each Transaction, all payments for the Shares (including, for the avoidance of doubt, payment of the
Prepayment Amount) and the transfer of such Shares to constitute “settlement payments” and “transfers” (as defined in the Bankruptcy Code). 



 

	 	(b)	 Counterparty acknowledges that: 


  

	 	(i)	 during the term of any Transaction, Dealer and its Affiliates may buy or sell Shares or other securities or buy or sell options or futures
contracts or enter into swaps or other derivative securities in order to establish, adjust or unwind its hedge position with respect to such Transaction; 


  

	 	(ii)	 Dealer and its Affiliates may also be active in the market for the Shares and Share-linked transactions other than in connection with hedging
activities in relation to any Transaction; 


  

	 	(iii)	 Dealer shall make its own determination as to whether, when or in what manner any hedging or market activities in Counterparty’s securities
shall be conducted and shall do so in a manner that it deems appropriate to hedge its price and market risk with respect to the Forward Price and the VWAP Price; 



 

	 	(iv)	 any market activities of Dealer and its Affiliates with respect to the Shares may affect the market price and volatility of the Shares, as well as
the Forward Price and VWAP Price, each in a manner that may be adverse to Counterparty; and 



  
 18 









	 	(v)	 each Transaction is a derivatives transaction in which it has granted Dealer an option; Dealer may purchase shares for its own account at an
average price that may be greater than, or less than, the price paid by Counterparty under the terms of the related Transaction. 


  

	13.	 No Collateral, Netting or Setoff. Notwithstanding any provision of the Agreement or any other agreement between the parties to the
contrary, the obligations of Counterparty hereunder are not secured by any collateral. Obligations under any Transaction shall not be netted, recouped or set off (including pursuant to Section 6 of the Agreement) against any other obligations
of the parties, whether arising under the Agreement, this Master Confirmation or any Supplemental Confirmation, or under any other agreement between the parties hereto, by operation of law or otherwise, and no other obligations of the parties shall
be netted, recouped or set off (including pursuant to Section 6 of the Agreement) against obligations under any Transaction, whether arising under the Agreement, this Master Confirmation or any Supplemental Confirmation, or under any other
agreement between the parties hereto, by operation of law or otherwise, and each party hereby waives any such right of setoff, netting or recoupment. 


  

	14.	 Delivery of Shares. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Dealer may, by prior notice to Counterparty, satisfy its
obligation to deliver any Shares or other securities on any date due (an “Original Delivery Date”) by making separate deliveries of Shares or such securities, as the case may be, at more than one time on or prior to such Original
Delivery Date, so long as the aggregate number of Shares and other securities so delivered on or prior to such Original Delivery Date is equal to the number required to be delivered on such Original Delivery Date. 



 

	15.	 Alternative Termination Settlement. In the event that (a) an Early Termination Date (whether as a result of an Event of Default
or a Termination Event) occurs or is designated with respect to any Transaction or (b) any Transaction is cancelled or terminated upon the occurrence of an Extraordinary Event (except as a result of (i) a Nationalization, Insolvency or
Merger Event in which the consideration to be paid to holders of Shares consists solely of cash, (ii) a Merger Event or Tender Offer that is within Counterparty’s control, or (iii) an Event of Default in which Counterparty is the
Defaulting Party or a Termination Event in which Counterparty is the Affected Party other than an Event of Default arising solely from a failure to comply with Section 6(b)(vi) of this Master Confirmation, an Event of Default of the type
described in Section 5(a)(iii), (v), (vi), (vii) or (viii) of the Agreement or a Termination Event of the type described in Section 5(b) of the Agreement, in each case that resulted from an event or events outside
Counterparty’s control), if either party would owe any amount to the other party pursuant to Section 6(d)(ii) of the Agreement or any Cancellation Amount pursuant to Article 12 of the Equity Definitions (any such amount, a “Payment
Amount”), then, in lieu of any payment of such Payment Amount, unless Counterparty makes an election to the contrary no later than the Early Termination Date or the date on which such Transaction is terminated or cancelled, Counterparty or
Dealer, as the case may be, shall deliver to the other party a number of Shares (or, in the case of a Nationalization, Insolvency or Merger Event, a number of units, each comprising the number or amount of the securities or property that a
hypothetical holder of one Share would receive in such Nationalization, Insolvency or Merger Event, as the case may be (each such unit, an “Alternative Delivery Unit”) with a value equal to the Payment Amount, as determined by the
Calculation Agent in good faith and in a commercially reasonably manner over a commercially reasonable period of time (and the parties agree that, in making such determination of value, the Calculation Agent may take into account a number of
factors, including, without limitation, the market price of the Shares or Alternative Delivery Units on the Early Termination Date or the date of early cancellation or termination, as the case may be, and, if such delivery is made by Dealer, the
prices at which Dealer purchases Shares or Alternative Delivery Units on any Calculation Date to fulfill its delivery obligations under this Section 15); provided that in determining the composition of any Alternative Delivery Unit, if
the relevant Nationalization, Insolvency or Merger Event involves a choice of consideration to be received by holders, such holder shall be deemed to have elected to receive the maximum possible amount of cash; and provided further that
Counterparty may elect that the provisions of this Section 15 above providing for the delivery of Shares or Alternative Delivery Units, as the case may be, shall not apply only if Counterparty represents and warrants to Dealer, in writing on
the date it notifies Dealer of such election, that, as of such date, Counterparty is not aware of any material non-public information regarding Counterparty or the Shares and is making such election in good faith and not as part of a plan or scheme
to evade compliance with the federal securities laws. If delivery of Shares or Alternative Delivery Units, as the case may be, pursuant to this Section 15 is 



  
 19 









	 	 
to be made by Counterparty, paragraphs 2 through 7 of Annex A hereto shall apply as if (A) such delivery were a settlement of such Transaction to which Net Share Settlement applied,
(B) the Cash Settlement Payment Date were the Early Termination Date or the date of early cancellation or termination, as the case may be, and (C) the Forward Cash Settlement Amount were equal to (x) zero minus (y) the
Payment Amount owed by Counterparty. For the avoidance of doubt, if Counterparty validly elects for the provisions of this Section 15 relating to the delivery of Shares or Alternative Delivery Units, as the case may be, not to apply to any
Payment Amount, the provisions of Article 12 of the Equity Definitions, or the provisions of Section 6(d)(ii) of the Agreement, as the case may be, shall apply. If delivery of Shares or Alternative Delivery Units, as the case may be, is to be
made by Dealer pursuant to this Section 15, the period during which Dealer purchases Shares or Alternative Delivery Units to fulfill its delivery obligations under this Section 15 shall be referred to as the “Seller Termination
Purchase Period”; provided that the parties hereby agree that such purchases shall be made solely on Calculation Dates for the relevant Transaction. 



 

	16.	 Calculations and Payment Date upon Early Termination. The parties acknowledge and agree that in calculating (a) the Close-Out
Amount pursuant to Section 6 of the Agreement and (b) the amount due upon cancellation or termination of any Transaction (whether in whole or in part) pursuant to Article 12 of the Equity Definitions as a result of an Extraordinary Event,
Dealer may (but need not) determine such amount based on (i) expected losses assuming a commercially reasonable (including, without limitation, with regard to reasonable legal and regulatory guidelines and taking into account the existence of
any Other Specified Repurchase Agreement) risk bid were used to determine loss or (ii) the price at which one or more market participants would offer to sell to the Seller a block of shares of Common Stock equal in number to the Seller’s
hedge position in relation to the Transaction. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 6(d)(ii) of the Agreement or Article 12 of the Equity Definitions, all amounts calculated as being due in respect of an Early Termination Date
under Section 6(e) of the Agreement or upon cancellation or termination of the relevant Transaction under Article 12 of the Equity Definitions will be payable on the day that notice of the amount payable is effective; provided that if
Counterparty elects to receive or deliver Shares or Alternative Delivery Units in accordance with Section 15, such Shares or Alternative Delivery Units shall be delivered on a date selected by Dealer as promptly as practicable.



  

	17.	 Limit on Beneficial Ownership. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Master Confirmation, Counterparty acknowledges and
agrees that, on any day, Dealer shall not be obligated to receive from Counterparty any Shares, and Counterparty shall not be entitled to deliver to Dealer any Shares, to the extent (but only to the extent) that after such transactions Dealer’s
ultimate parent entity would directly or indirectly “beneficially own” (as such term is defined for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act) at any time on such day in excess of 8% of the outstanding Shares. Any purported
receipt of Shares shall be void and have no effect to the extent (but only to the extent) that after such receipt, Dealer’s ultimate parent entity would directly or indirectly so beneficially own in excess of 8% of the outstanding Shares. If,
on any day, any receipt of Shares by Dealer is not effected, in whole or in part, as a result of this Section 17, Counterparty’s obligations to deliver such Shares shall not be extinguished and any such delivery shall be effected over time
by Counterparty as promptly as Dealer determines, such that after any such delivery, Dealer’s ultimate parent entity would not directly or indirectly beneficially own in excess of 8% of the outstanding Shares. 



 

	18.	 Maximum Share Delivery. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Master Confirmation, in no event shall Dealer be required to
deliver any Shares, or any Shares or other securities comprising Alternative Delivery Units, in respect of any Transaction in excess of the Maximum Number of Shares set forth in the Supplemental Confirmation for such Transaction.



  

	19.	 Additional Termination Events. 


  

	 	(a)	 The occurrence of an event described in paragraph III of Annex B hereto will constitute an Additional Termination Event, with Counterparty as the
sole Affected Party and the Transactions specified in such paragraph III as the Affected Transactions. 


  

	 	(b)	 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 6 of the Agreement, if a Termination Price is specified in the Supplemental Confirmation
for any Transaction, then an Additional Termination 



  
 20 









	 	 
Event (with respect to which Counterparty shall be the sole Affected Party and such Transaction shall be the sole Affected Transaction) will occur without any notice or action by Dealer or
Counterparty if, on two consecutive Exchange Business Days, the price of the Shares on the Exchange at any time falls below such Termination Price. 


  

	20.	 Non-confidentiality. Dealer and Counterparty hereby acknowledge and agree that, subject to Section 8(e), each is authorized to
disclose the tax structure and tax treatment of the transactions contemplated by this Master Confirmation and any Supplemental Confirmation hereunder to any and all persons, without limitation of any kind, and there are no express or implied
agreements, arrangements or understandings to the contrary. 


  

	21.	 Assignment and Transfer. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Agreement, without the consent of Counterparty, Dealer may
assign any of its rights or duties hereunder to any one or more of its Affiliates (1) that has a long-term issuer rating that is equal to or better than Dealer’s credit rating at the time of such assignment, or (2) whose obligations
hereunder will be guaranteed, pursuant to the terms of a customary guarantee in a form used generally for similar transactions, by Dealer or Dealer’s ultimate parent; provided that, at the time of such assignment (i) Counterparty
will not be required to pay (including a payment in kind) to the transferee any amount in respect of an Indemnifiable Tax under Section 2(d)(i)(4) of the Agreement (except in respect of interest under Section 2(e), 6(d)(ii) or 6(e) of the
Agreement) greater than the amount in respect of which Counterparty would have been required to pay to Dealer in the absence of such transfer; and (ii) Counterparty will not receive any payment (including a payment in kind) from which an amount
had been withheld or deducted, on account of a Tax under Section 2(d)(i) of the Agreement (except in respect of interest under Section 2(e), 6(d)(ii) or 6(e) of the Agreement), in excess of that which Dealer would have been required to so
withhold or deduct in the absence of such transfer, except to the extent that the transferee will be required to make additional payments pursuant to Section 2(d)(i)(4) of the Agreement in respect of such excess. Notwithstanding any other
provision in this Master Confirmation to the contrary requiring or allowing Dealer to purchase, sell, receive or deliver any Shares or other securities to or from Counterparty, Dealer may designate any of its Affiliates to purchase, sell, receive or
deliver such Shares or other securities and otherwise to perform Dealer’s obligations in respect of any Transaction and any such designee may assume such obligations. Dealer may assign the right to receive Settlement Shares to any third party
who may legally receive Settlement Shares. Dealer shall be discharged of its obligations to Counterparty only to the extent of any such performance. For the avoidance of doubt, Dealer hereby acknowledges that notwithstanding any such designation
hereunder, to the extent any of Dealer’s obligations in respect of any Transaction are not completed by its designee, Dealer shall be obligated to continue to perform or to cause any other of its designees to perform in respect of such
obligations. 


  

	22.	 Amendments to the Equity Definitions. 


  

	 	(a)	 Section 11.2(a) of the Equity Definitions is hereby amended by deleting the words “a diluting or concentrative” and replacing them
with the words “a material economic”; and adding the phrase “or such Transaction” at the end of the sentence. 


  

	 	(b)	 Section 11.2(c) of the Equity Definitions is hereby amended by (i) replacing the words “a diluting or concentrative” with
“a material economic” in the fifth line thereof, (ii) adding the phrase “or such Transaction” after the words “the relevant Shares” in the same sentence, (iii) replacing the words “dilutive or
concentrative” in the sixth to last line thereof with “material economic”, and (iv) deleting the phrase “(provided that no adjustments will be made to account solely for changes in volatility, expected dividends, stock loan
rate or liquidity relative to the relevant Shares)” and replacing it with the phrase “(and, for the avoidance of doubt, adjustments may be made to account solely for changes in volatility, expected dividends, stock loan rate or liquidity
relative to the relevant Shares).” 


  

	 	(c)	 Section 11.2(e) of the Equity Definitions is hereby amended by deleting clause (iii) thereof in its entirety. Section 11.2(e)(v) of
the Equity Definitions is amended by adding the words “at a premium to the current market price thereof (other than in connection with Permitted Purchases)” after the word “Shares” in such Section. Section 11.2(e)(vii) of
the Equity Definitions is hereby amended by deleting the words “a diluting or concentrative” and replacing them with the word “a material”; and adding the phrase “or the relevant Transaction” at the end of the sentence.




  
 21 









	 	(d)	 Section 12.6(a)(ii) of the Equity Definitions is hereby amended by (i) deleting from the fourth line thereof the word “or”
after the word “official” and inserting a comma therefor, and (ii) deleting the semi-colon at the end of subsection (B) thereof and inserting the following words therefor “or (C) at Dealer’s option, the occurrence
of any of the events specified in Section 5(a)(vii) (1) through (9) of the ISDA Master Agreement with respect to that Issuer.” 


  

	 	(e)	 Section 12.9(b)(iv) of the Equity Definitions is hereby amended by: 



 

	 	(i)	 deleting (1) subsection (A) in its entirety, (2) the phrase “or (B)” following subsection (A) and (3) the phrase
“in each case” in subsection (B); and

	 	(f)	 Section 12.9(b)(v) of the Equity Definitions is hereby amended by adding the phrase “; provided that the Non-Hedging Party may so
elect to terminate the Transaction only if the Non-Hedging Party represents and warrants to the Hedging Party in writing on the date it notifies the Hedging Party of such election that, as of such date, the Non-Hedging Party is not
aware of any material non-public information regarding Counterparty or the Shares and is making such election in good faith and not as part of a plan or scheme to evade compliance with the federal securities laws” immediately prior
to the period at the end of subsection (C). 


  

	 	(g)	 Section 12.9(b)(v) of the Equity Definitions is hereby amended by deleting clause (X) in the final sentence. 



 

	23.	 Extraordinary Dividend. If Counterparty declares any Extraordinary Dividend that has an ex-dividend date during the period commencing
on the Trade Date for any Transaction and ending of the last day of the Relevant Period or, if applicable, the later of the last day of the Settlement Valuation Period and the last day of the Seller Termination Purchase Period, for such Transaction,
then prior to or on the date on which such Extraordinary Dividend is paid by Counterparty to holders of record, Counterparty shall pay to Dealer, for each Transaction under this Master Confirmation, an amount in cash equal to the product of
(i) the amount of such Extraordinary Dividend and (ii) the theoretical short delta number of shares as of the opening of business on the related ex-dividend date, as determined by the Calculation Agent, required for Dealer to hedge its
exposure to such Transaction. 


  

	24.	 Status of Claims in Bankruptcy. Dealer acknowledges and agrees that neither this Master Confirmation nor any Supplemental
Confirmation is intended to convey to Dealer rights against Counterparty with respect to any Transaction that are senior to the claims of common stockholders of Counterparty in any United States bankruptcy proceedings of Counterparty;
provided that nothing herein shall limit or shall be deemed to limit Dealer’s right to pursue remedies in the event of a breach by Counterparty of its obligations and agreements with respect to any Transaction; provided further
that nothing herein shall limit or shall be deemed to limit Dealer’s rights in respect of any transactions other than any Transaction. 


  

	25.	 Wall Street Transparency and Accountability Act. In connection with Section 739 of the Wall Street Transparency and
Accountability Act of 2010 (“WSTAA”), the parties hereby agree that neither the enactment of WSTAA or any regulation under the WSTAA, nor any requirement under WSTAA or an amendment made by WSTAA, nor any similar legal certainty
provision in any legislation enacted, or rule or regulation promulgated, on or after the date of this Master Confirmation, shall limit or otherwise impair either party’s otherwise applicable rights to terminate, renegotiate, modify, amend or
supplement any Supplemental Confirmation, this Master Confirmation or the Agreement, as applicable, arising from a termination event, force majeure, illegality, increased costs, regulatory change or similar event under any Supplemental Confirmation,
this Master Confirmation, the Equity Definitions incorporated herein, or the Agreement (including, without limitation, rights arising from Change in Law, Loss of Stock Borrow, Increased Cost of Stock Borrow, Hedging Disruption, Increased Cost of
Hedging, or Illegality). 



  
 22 









	26.	 Delivery of Cash. For the avoidance of doubt, other than (x) payment of the Prepayment Amount by Buyer and (y) any payment
required pursuant Section 23 of this Master Confirmation, nothing in this Master Confirmation shall be interpreted as requiring Buyer to cash settle any Transaction hereunder, except in circumstances where cash settlement is within Buyer’s
control (including, without limitation, where Buyer elects to deliver or receive cash, where Buyer fails timely to elect to deliver Settlement Shares pursuant Annex A hereof in settlement of any Transaction hereunder or to deliver or receive
Alternative Termination Delivery Units, or where Buyer has made settlement by delivery of Unregistered Settlement Shares in accordance with Annex A hereof unavailable due to the occurrence of events within its control) or in those circumstances in
which holders of the Shares would also receive cash. 


  

	27.	 Counterparts. This Master Confirmation may be executed in any number of counterparts, all of which shall constitute one and the same
instrument, and any party hereto may execute this Master Confirmation by signing and delivering one or more counterparts.

AND ANY SUPPLEMENTAL CONFIRMATION AND THE TRANSACTIONS HEREUNDER. EACH PARTY (I) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF THE OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF
SUCH A SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (II) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTY HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THE TRANSACTIONS, AS APPLICABLE, BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS
PROVIDED HEREIN. 


  

	29.	 Role of Agent. Each party agrees and acknowledges that (a) JPMS, an Affiliate of Dealer, has acted solely as agent and not as
principal with respect to this Master Confirmation and each Transaction and (b) JPMS has no obligation or liability, by way of guaranty, endorsement or otherwise, in any manner in respect of any Transaction (including, if applicable, in respect
of the settlement thereof). Each party agrees it will look solely to the other party (or any guarantor in respect thereof) for performance of such other party’s obligations under any Transaction. JPMS is authorized to act as agent for Dealer.

 ANNEX A 

COUNTERPARTY SETTLEMENT PROVISIONS 

1. The following Counterparty Settlement Provisions shall apply to any Transaction to the extent indicated under the Master
Confirmation: 
  

	 Settlement Currency: 
	 USD 


  

	 Settlement Method Election: 
	 Applicable; provided that (i) Section 7.1 of the Equity Definitions is hereby amended by deleting the word “Physical” in the sixth line thereof
and replacing it with the words “Net Share” and (ii) the Electing Party may make a settlement method election only if the Electing Party represents and warrants to Dealer in writing on the date it notifies Dealer of its election that,
as of such date, the Electing Party is not aware of any material non-public information regarding Counterparty or the Shares and is electing the settlement method in good faith and not as part of a plan or scheme to evade compliance with the federal
securities laws. 


  

	 Electing Party: 
	 Counterparty 


  

	 Settlement Method Election Date: 
	 The earlier of (x) the second Exchange Business Day immediately following the Accelerated Termination Date (in which case election under Section 7.1 of the Equity
Definitions shall be made no later than 10 minutes prior to the open of trading on the Exchange on such second Exchange Business Day) and (y) the Scheduled Termination Date (such earlier date, the “Scheduled Settlement Election
Date”), unless, on the Scheduled Settlement Election Date, Counterparty is aware of any material, non-public information regarding Counterparty or the Shares, in which case the Settlement Method Election Date shall be the earlier of
(x) the 30th calendar day immediately following the Scheduled Settlement Election Date and (y) the first date immediately following the Scheduled Settlement Election Date on which Counterparty is not aware of any material, non-public
information regarding Counterparty or the Shares. 


  

	 Default Settlement Method: 
	 Cash Settlement 


  

	 Forward Cash Settlement Amount: 
	 An amount equal to (a) the Number of Shares to be Delivered, multiplied by (b) the Settlement Price. 



 

	 Settlement Price: 
	 An amount equal to the average of the VWAP Prices for the Calculation Dates in the Settlement Valuation Period, subject to Valuation Disruption as specified in the Master
Confirmation (in each case, plus interest on such amount during the period of beginning on, and including, the first Calculation Date of the Settlement Valuation Period and ending on, but excluding, the Cash Settlement Payment Date at the
rate of interest for Counterparty’s long term, unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness, as determined by the Calculation Agent). 


  

	 Settlement Valuation Period: 
	 A number of Calculation Dates selected by Dealer in its reasonable judgment, beginning on the Calculation Date




  
 Annex A-1 









	 	 
immediately following the Termination Date. Dealer shall notify Counterparty of the last Calculation Date of the Settlement Valuation Period on or prior to the Exchange Business Day immediately
following such last Calculation Date. 


  

	 Cash Settlement: 
	 If Cash Settlement is applicable, then Buyer shall pay to Seller the absolute value of the Forward Cash Settlement Amount on the Cash Settlement Payment Date.



  

	 Cash Settlement Payment Date: 
	 The later of (x) the Exchange Business Day immediately following the last day of the Settlement Valuation Period and (y) the earlier of the Exchange Business Day
immediately following the date of Counterparty’s Settlement Method Election and the Settlement Method Election Date. 


  

	 Net Share Settlement Procedures: 
	 If Net Share Settlement is applicable, Net Share Settlement shall be made in accordance with paragraphs 2 through 7 below. 



2. Net Share Settlement shall be made by delivery on the Cash Settlement Payment Date of a number of Shares satisfying the
conditions set forth in paragraph 3 below (the “Registered Settlement Shares”), or a number of Shares not satisfying such conditions (the “Unregistered Settlement Shares”), in either case with a value equal to
100.50% (in the case of Registered Settlement Shares) or 102.50% (in the case of Unregistered Settlement Shares) of the absolute value of the Forward Cash Settlement Amount, with such Shares’ value based on the value thereof to Dealer (which
value shall, in the case of Unregistered Settlement Shares, take into account a commercially reasonable illiquidity discount), in each case as determined by the Calculation Agent in good faith and a commercially reasonable manner. If all of the
conditions for delivery of either Registered Settlement Shares or Unregistered Settlement Shares have not been satisfied, Cash Settlement shall be applicable in accordance with paragraph 1 above notwithstanding Counterparty’s election of Net
Share Settlement. 
 3. Counterparty may only deliver Registered Settlement Shares pursuant to paragraph 2 above if: 

(a) a registration statement covering public resale of the Registered Settlement Shares by Dealer (the “Registration
Statement”) shall have been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act and been declared or otherwise become effective on or prior to the date of delivery, and no stop order shall be in effect with respect to
the Registration Statement; a printed prospectus relating to the Registered Settlement Shares (including, without limitation, any prospectus supplement thereto, the “Prospectus”) shall have been delivered to Dealer, in such
quantities as Dealer shall reasonably have requested, on or prior to the date of delivery; 
 (b) the form and content of
the Registration Statement and the Prospectus (including, without limitation, any sections describing the plan of distribution) shall be reasonably satisfactory to Dealer; 

(c) as of or prior to the date of delivery, Dealer and its agents shall have been afforded a reasonable opportunity to conduct
a due diligence investigation with respect to Counterparty customary in scope for underwritten offerings of equity securities (provided that prior to receiving or being granted access to any such information, Dealer and any such agent may be
required by Counterparty to enter into a customary nondisclosure agreement with Counterparty in respect of any such due diligence investigation) and the results of such investigation are satisfactory to Dealer, in its judgment; and 

(d) as of the date of delivery, an agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) shall have been entered into with
Dealer in connection with the public resale of the Registered Settlement Shares by Dealer substantially similar to underwriting agreements customary for underwritten offerings of equity securities, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to
Dealer, which Underwriting Agreement shall include, without limitation, provisions substantially similar to those contained in such underwriting agreements relating, without limitation, to the mutual indemnification of, and contribution in
connection with the liability of, the parties and the provision of customary opinions, accountants’ comfort letters and lawyers’ negative assurance letters. 

  
 Annex A-2 








 4. If Counterparty delivers Unregistered Settlement Shares pursuant to paragraph
2 above: 
 (a) all Unregistered Settlement Shares shall be delivered to Dealer (or any Affiliate of Dealer designated by
Dealer) pursuant to the exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act provided by Section 4(a)(2) thereof; 

(b) as of or prior to the date of delivery, Dealer and any potential purchaser of any such shares from Dealer (or any
Affiliate of Dealer designated by Dealer) identified by Dealer shall be afforded a commercially reasonable opportunity to conduct a due diligence investigation with respect to Counterparty customary in scope for private placements of equity
securities of similar size by issuers similar to Counterparty (including, without limitation, the right to have made available to them for inspection all relevant financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and other information
reasonably requested by them); provided that prior to receiving or being granted access to any such information, any such Dealer (or Affiliate) or potential purchaser may be required by Counterparty to enter into a customary nondisclosure
agreement with Counterparty in respect of any such due diligence investigation; 
 (c) as of the date of delivery,
Counterparty shall enter into an agreement (a “Private Placement Agreement”) with Dealer (or any Affiliate of Dealer designated by Dealer) in connection with the private placement of such shares by Counterparty to Dealer (or any
such Affiliate) and the private resale of such shares by Dealer (or any such Affiliate), substantially similar to private placement purchase agreements customary for private placements of equity securities, in form and substance commercially
reasonably satisfactory to Dealer, which Private Placement Agreement shall include, without limitation, provisions substantially similar to those contained in such private placement purchase agreements relating, without limitation, to the mutual
indemnification of, and contribution in connection with the liability of, the parties and the provision of customary opinions, accountants’ comfort letters and lawyers’ negative assurance letters, and shall provide for the payment by
Counterparty of all reasonable fees and actual, documented out-of-pocket expenses of Dealer (and any such Affiliate) in connection with such resale, including, without limitation, all reasonable fees and actual, documented out-of-pocket expenses of
counsel for Dealer, and shall contain representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of the parties reasonably necessary or advisable to establish and maintain the availability of an exemption from the registration requirements of the
Securities Act for such resales; and 
 (d) in connection with the private placement of such shares by Counterparty to
Dealer (or any such Affiliate) and the private resale of such shares by Dealer (or any such Affiliate), Counterparty shall, if so requested by Dealer, prepare, in cooperation with Dealer, a private placement memorandum in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to Dealer. 
 5. Dealer, itself or through an Affiliate (the “Selling Agent”) or
any underwriter(s), will sell all, or such lesser portion as may be required hereunder, of the Registered Settlement Shares or Unregistered Settlement Shares and any Makewhole Shares (as defined below) (together, the “Settlement
Shares”) delivered by Counterparty to Dealer pursuant to paragraph 6 below commencing on the Cash Settlement Payment Date and continuing until the date on which the aggregate Net Proceeds (as such term is defined below) of such sales, as
determined by Dealer, is equal to the absolute value of the Forward Cash Settlement Amount (such date, the “Final Resale Date”). If Counterparty is prohibited by law or by contract from disclosing all material non-public information
known to Counterparty with respect to Counterparty and the Shares to any potential purchasers of such Settlement Shares, then the sale of such Settlement Shares shall not be required to commence until the earlier of (x) the 30th calendar day
immediately following the Cash Settlement Payment Date and (y) the first date immediately following the Cash Settlement Payment Date on which Counterparty reasonably concludes that it is able to disclose such information. If the proceeds of any
sale(s) made by Dealer, the Selling Agent or any underwriter(s), net of any commercially reasonable fees and commissions (including, without limitation, underwriting or placement fees) customary for similar transactions under the circumstances at
the time of the offering, together with commercially reasonable carrying charges and expenses incurred in connection with the offer and sale of the Shares (including, without limitation, the covering of any over-allotment or short position
(syndicate or otherwise)) (the “Net Proceeds”) exceed the absolute value of the Forward Cash Settlement Amount, Dealer will refund, in USD, such excess to Counterparty on the date that is three (3) Currency Business Days
following the Final Resale Date, and, if any portion of the Settlement Shares remains unsold, Dealer shall return to Counterparty on that date such unsold Shares. 

6. If the Calculation Agent determines that the Net Proceeds received from the sale of the Registered Settlement Shares or
Unregistered Settlement Shares or any Makewhole Shares, if any, pursuant to this paragraph 6 

  
 Annex A-3 








 
are less than the absolute value of the Forward Cash Settlement Amount (the amount in USD by which the Net Proceeds are less than the absolute value of the Forward Cash Settlement Amount being
the “Shortfall” and the date on which such determination is made, the “Deficiency Determination Date”), Counterparty shall on the Exchange Business Day next succeeding the Deficiency Determination Date (the
“Makewhole Notice Date”) deliver to Dealer, through the Selling Agent, a notice of Counterparty’s election that Counterparty shall either (i) pay an amount in cash equal to the Shortfall on the day that is one Currency
Business Day after the Makewhole Notice Date, or (ii) deliver additional Shares. If Counterparty elects to deliver to Dealer additional Shares, then Counterparty shall deliver additional Shares in compliance with the terms and conditions of
paragraph 3 or paragraph 4 above, as the case may be (the “Makewhole Shares”), on the first Clearance System Business Day which is also an Exchange Business Day following the Makewhole Notice Date in such number as the Calculation
Agent reasonably believes would have a market value on that Exchange Business Day equal to the Shortfall. Such Makewhole Shares shall be sold by Dealer in accordance with the provisions above; provided that if the sum of the Net Proceeds from
the sale of the originally delivered Shares and the Net Proceeds from the sale of any Makewhole Shares is less than the absolute value of the Forward Cash Settlement Amount then Counterparty shall, at its election, either make such cash payment or
deliver to Dealer further Makewhole Shares until such Shortfall has been reduced to zero. 
 7. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, in no event shall the aggregate number of Settlement Shares for any Transaction be greater than the Reserved Shares minus the amount of any Shares actually delivered by Counterparty under any other Transaction under this Master
Confirmation (the result of such calculation, the “Capped Number”). Counterparty represents and warrants (which shall be deemed to be repeated on each day that a Transaction is outstanding) that the Capped Number is equal to or less
than the number of Shares determined according to the following formula: 
 A–B 

 

	 	Where	A = the number of authorized but unissued shares of Counterparty that are not reserved for future issuance on the date of the determination of the Capped Number; and 


 

	 	    	B = the maximum number of Shares required to be delivered to third parties if Counterparty elected Net Share Settlement of all transactions in the Shares (other than Transactions in the Shares under this Master
Confirmation) with all third parties that are then currently outstanding and unexercised. 

 “Reserved
Shares” means, for each Transaction, as set forth in the Supplemental Confirmation for such Transaction. 
 If at
any time, as a result of this paragraph 7, Counterparty fails to deliver to Dealer any Settlement Shares, Counterparty shall, to the extent that Counterparty has at such time authorized but unissued Shares not reserved for other purposes, promptly
notify Dealer thereof and deliver to Dealer a number of Shares not previously delivered as a result of this paragraph 7.

COMMUNICATIONS PROCEDURES 

October 9, 2015 

I. Introduction 

Monsanto Company (“Counterparty”) and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC (“JPMS”), as agent for
JPMorgan Chase Bank, National Association, London Branch (“Dealer”) have adopted these communications procedures (the “Communications Procedures”) in connection with entering into the Master Confirmation (the
“Master Confirmation”), dated as of October 9, 2015, between Dealer and Counterparty relating to Uncollared Accelerated Share Repurchase transactions. These Communications Procedures supplement, form part of, and are subject to
the Master Confirmation. 
 II. Communications Rules 

For each Transaction, from the Trade Date for such Transaction until the date all payments or deliveries of Shares have been
made with respect to such Transaction, Counterparty and its Employees and Designees shall not engage in any Program-Related Communication with, or disclose any Material Non-Public Information to, any Trading Personnel. Except as set forth in the
preceding sentence, the Master Confirmation shall not limit Counterparty and its Employees and Designees in their communication with Affiliates and Employees of Dealer, including, without limitation, Employees who are Permitted Contacts. 

III. Termination 

If, in the sole judgment of any Trading Personnel or any Affiliate or Employee of Dealer participating in any Communication
with Counterparty or any Employee or Designee of Counterparty, such Communication would not be permitted by these Communications Procedures, such Trading Personnel or Affiliate or Employee of Dealer shall immediately terminate such Communication. In
such case, or if such Trading Personnel or Affiliate or Employee of Dealer determines following completion of any Communication with Counterparty or any Employee or Designee of Counterparty that such Communication was not permitted by these
Communications Procedures, such Trading Personnel or such Affiliate or Employee of Dealer shall promptly consult with his or her supervisors and with counsel for Dealer regarding such Communication. If, in the reasonable judgment of Dealer’s
counsel following such consultation, there is more than an insignificant risk that such Communication could materially jeopardize the availability of the affirmative defenses provided in Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act with respect to any ongoing
or contemplated activities of Dealer or its Affiliates in respect of any Transaction pursuant to the Master Confirmation, it shall be an Additional Termination Event pursuant to Section 19(a) of the Master Confirmation, with Counterparty as the
sole Affected Party and all Transactions under the Master Confirmation as Affected Transactions.
