 Dear Sirs, 
 The purpose of this letter agreement
(this “Confirmation”) is to confirm the terms and conditions of the transaction entered into between us on the Trade Date specified below (the “Transaction”). This Confirmation constitutes a “Confirmation” as referred
to in the ISDA Master Agreement specified below. 
  

	1.	The definitions and provisions contained in the 2000 ISDA Definitions (the “2000 Definitions”) and the 2002 ISDA Equity Derivatives Definitions (the
“2002 Definitions” and, together with the 2000 Definitions, the “Definitions”), each as published by the International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc., are incorporated into this Confirmation. In the event of any
inconsistency between the 2002 Definitions and the 2000 Definitions, the 2002 Definitions will govern. In the event of any inconsistency between the Definitions and this Confirmation, this Confirmation will govern. 

 This Confirmation evidences a complete and binding agreement between Party A and Party B as to the terms of the Transaction to which this
Confirmation relates. This Confirmation shall supplement, form a part of, and be subject to an agreement in the form of the 2002 ISDA Master Agreement (the “Agreement”) as if Party A and Party B had executed an agreement in such form on
the Trade Date (but without any Schedule except for the election of the laws of the State of New York as the governing law). In the event of any inconsistency between provisions of that Agreement and this Confirmation, this Confirmation will prevail
for the purpose of the Transaction to which this Confirmation relates. The parties hereby agree that no Transaction other than the Transaction to which this Confirmation relates shall be governed by the Agreement. For purposes of the 2002
Definitions, the Transaction is a Share Forward Transaction. 
 Party A and Party B each represents to the other that it has
entered into the Transaction in reliance upon such tax, accounting, regulatory, legal, and financial advice as it deems necessary and not upon any view expressed by the other.

	 Settlement Notice
 Requirements:
	  	Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, a Settlement Notice delivered by Party B that specifies Cash Settlement will not be effective to establish a Settlement Date or require
Cash Settlement unless Party B delivers to Party A with such Settlement Notice a representation signed by Party B substantially in the following form: “As of the date of this Settlement Notice, Party B is not aware of any material nonpublic
information concerning itself or the Shares, and is designating the date contained herein as a Settlement Date in good faith and not as part of a plan or scheme to evade compliance with the federal securities laws.”
		
	 Unwind Period:
	  	Each Exchange Business Day that is not a Suspension Day during the period from and including the first Exchange Business Day following the date Party B validly elects Cash
Settlement in respect of a Settlement Date through the third Scheduled Trading Day preceding such Settlement Date (or the immediately preceding Exchange Business Day if such Scheduled Trading Day is not an Exchange Business Day); subject to
“Termination Settlement” below. If any Exchange Business Day during an Unwind Period is a Disrupted Day, the Calculation Agent shall make commercially reasonable adjustments to the terms of the Transaction (including, without limitation,
the Cash Settlement Amount and the 10b-18 VWAP) to account for the occurrence of such Disrupted Day.
		
	 Suspension Day:
	  	Any Exchange Business Day on which Party A determines based on the advice of counsel that Cash Settlement may violate applicable securities laws. Party A shall notify Party B if it
receives such advice from its counsel.
		
	 Market Disruption Event:
	  	Section 6.3(a)(ii) of the 2002 Definitions is hereby amended by replacing clause (ii) in its entirety with “(ii) an Exchange Disruption, or” and inserting immediately

	 Exchange Act:
	  	The Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended from time to time.
		
	 Physical Settlement:
	  	On any Settlement Date in respect of which Physical Settlement applies, Party B shall deliver to Party A through the Clearance System the Settlement Shares for such Settlement Date,
and Party A shall deliver to Party B, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by Party B, an amount in cash equal to the Physical Settlement Amount for such Settlement Date, on a delivery versus payment basis. If, on
any Settlement Date, the Shares to be delivered by Party B to Party A hereunder are not so delivered (the “Deferred Shares”), and a Forward Price Reduction Date occurs during the period from, but excluding, such Settlement Date to, and
including, the date such Shares are actually delivered to Party, then the portion of the Physical Settlement Amount payable by Party A to Party B in respect of the Deferred Shares shall be

  

 4 








			
		  	reduced by an amount equal to the Forward Price Reduction Amount for such Forward Price Reduction Date, multiplied by the number of Deferred Shares.
		
	 Physical Settlement Amount:
	  	For any Settlement Date in respect of which Physical Settlement applies, an amount in cash equal to the product of (i) the Forward Price on such Settlement Date and (ii) the
number of Settlement Shares for such Settlement Date.
		
	 Cash Settlement:
	  	On any Settlement Date in respect of which Cash Settlement applies, if the Cash Settlement Amount for such Settlement Date is a positive number, Party A will pay such Cash
Settlement Amount to Party B. If the Cash Settlement Amount is a negative number, Party B will pay the absolute value of such Cash Settlement Amount to Party A. Such amounts shall be paid on the Settlement Date.
		
	 Cash Settlement Amount:
	  	For any Settlement Date in respect of which Cash Settlement applies, an amount determined by the Calculation Agent equal to the difference between (1) the product of (i) (A) the
average Forward Price over the applicable Unwind Period minus (B) the average of the 10b-18 VWAP prices per Share on each Exchange Business Day during such Unwind Period, and (ii) the number of Settlement Shares for such Settlement Date, and
(2) the product of (i) the Forward Price Reduction Amount for any Forward Price Reduction Date that occurs during such Unwind Period and (ii) the number of Settlement Shares with respect to which Party A has not unwound its hedge as of such Forward
Price Reduction Date.
		
	 10b-18 VWAP:
	  	For any Exchange Business Day during the Unwind Period which is not a Suspension Day, the volume-weighted average price at which the Shares trade as reported in the composite
transactions for the Exchange on such Exchange Business Day, excluding (i) trades that do not settle regular way, (ii) opening (regular way) reported trades on the Exchange on such Exchange Business Day, (iii) trades that occur in the last ten
minutes before the scheduled close of trading on the Exchange on such Exchange Business Day and ten minutes before the scheduled close of the primary trading session in the market where the trade is effected, and (iv) trades on such Exchange
Business Day that do not satisfy the requirements of Rule 10b-18(b)(3), as determined in good faith by the Calculation Agent. Party B acknowledges that Party A may refer to the Bloomberg Page “REG <Equity> AQR SEC” (or any successor
thereto), in its discretion, for such Exchange Business Day to determine the 10b-18 VWAP.
		
	 Settlement Currency:
	  	USD.
		
	 Failure to Deliver:
	  	Inapplicable.

	Adjustments:	  	
		
	 Method of Adjustment:
	  	Calculation Agent Adjustment; notwithstanding anything in the 2002 Definitions to the contrary, the Calculation Agent may make an adjustment pursuant to Calculation Agent Adjustment
to any one or more of the Base Amount, the Forward Price and any other variable relevant to the settlement or payment terms of the Transaction.
		
	 Additional Adjustment:
	  	If, in Party A’s sole judgment, the actual cost to Party A, over any one month period, of borrowing a number of Shares equal to the Base Amount to hedge its exposure to the
Transaction exceeds a weighted average rate equal to 100 basis points per annum, the Calculation Agent shall reduce the Forward Price in order to compensate Party A for the amount by which such cost exceeded a weighted average rate equal to 100
basis points per annum during such period. The Calculation Agent shall notify Party B prior to making any such adjustment to the Forward Price and, upon the request of Party B, Party A shall provide an itemized list of its stock loan costs for the
applicable one month period.
	Account Details:	  	
		
	 Payments to Party A:
	  	To be advised under separate cover or telephone confirmed prior to each Settlement Date.

 Conditions
to Effectiveness: 
 The effectiveness of this Confirmation on the Effective Date shall be subject to (i) the condition
that the representations and warranties of Party B contained in the Underwriting Agreement dated the date hereof among Party B, J.P. Morgan Securities Inc. and Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, as Representatives of the Underwriters and the Forward
Sellers and Forward Counterparties party thereto (the “Underwriting Agreement”) and any certificate delivered pursuant thereto by Party B are true and correct on the Effective Date as if made as of the Effective Date, (ii) the
condition that Party B have performed all of the obligations required to be performed by it under the Underwriting Agreement on or prior to the Effective Date, (iii) the satisfaction of all of the conditions set forth in Section 6 of the
Underwriting Agreement and (iv) the condition that Party A is able to borrow and deliver for sale a number of Shares equal to the Base Amount (in which event this Confirmation shall be effective but the Base Amount for the Transaction shall be
the number of Shares Party A is required to deliver in accordance with Section 2(b) of the Underwriting Agreement). 
 Representations and Agreements of Party B: 
 Party B (i) has such knowledge and experience in financial
and business affairs as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of entering into the Transaction; (ii) has consulted with its own

  

 6 







 
legal, financial, accounting and tax advisors in connection with the Transaction; and (iii) is entering into the Transaction for a bona fide business purpose. 
 Party B is not and has not been the subject of any civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction that
could reasonably be expected to impair materially Party B’s ability to perform its obligations hereunder. 
 Party B will
by the next succeeding New York Business Day notify Party A upon obtaining knowledge of the occurrence of any event that would constitute an Event of Default, a Potential Event of Default or a Potential Adjustment Event. 
 Additional Representations, Warranties and Agreements of Party B: Party B hereby represents and warrants to, and agrees with, Party A
as of the date hereof that: 
  

	 	(a)	Any Shares, when issued and delivered in accordance with the terms of the Transaction, will be duly authorized and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, and the
issuance thereof will not be subject to any preemptive or similar rights. 

  

	 	(b)	Party B has reserved and will keep available at all times, free from preemptive rights, out of its authorized but unissued Shares, solely for the purpose of issuance
upon settlement of the Transaction as herein provided, the full number of Shares as shall be issuable at such time upon settlement of the Transaction. All Shares so issuable shall, upon such issuance, be accepted for listing or quotation on the
Exchange. 

  

	 	(c)	Party B agrees to provide Party A at least 30 days’ written notice (an “Issuer Repurchase Notice”) prior to executing any repurchase of Shares by Party B
or any of its subsidiaries (or entering into any contract that would require, or give the option to, Party B or any of its subsidiaries, to purchase or repurchase Shares), whether out of profits or capital or whether the consideration for such
repurchase is cash, securities or otherwise (an “Issuer Repurchase”), that alone or in the aggregate would result in the Base Amount Percentage (as defined below) being greater by 0.5% or more than the Base Amount Percentage at the time of
the immediately preceding Issuer Repurchase Notice (or in the case of the first such Issuer Repurchase Notice, greater than the Base Amount Percentage as of the later of the date hereof or the immediately preceding Settlement Date, if any). The
“Base Amount Percentage” as of any day is the fraction (1) the numerator of which is the Base Amount and (2) the denominator of which is the number of Shares outstanding on such day. 

  

	 	(d)	No filing with, or approval, authorization, consent, license registration, qualification, order or decree of, any court or governmental authority or agency, domestic or
foreign, is necessary or required for the execution, delivery and performance by Party B of this Confirmation and the consummation of the Transaction (including, without limitation, the issuance and delivery of Shares on any Settlement Date) except
(i) such as have been obtained under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and (ii) as may be required to be obtained under state securities laws. 

  

	 	(e)	Party B agrees not to make any Issuer Repurchase if, immediately following such Issuer Repurchase, the Base Amount Percentage would be equal to or greater than 5.5%.


  

	 	(f)	Party B is not insolvent, nor will Party B be rendered insolvent as a result of the Transaction. 

  

	 	(g)	 Neither Party B nor any of its affiliates shall take or refrain from taking any action (including, without limitation, any direct purchases by Party B
or any of its affiliates or any purchases by a party to a derivative transaction with Party B or any of its affiliates), either under this Confirmation, under an agreement with another party or otherwise, that might cause any



  

 7 








	 	 
purchases of Shares by Party A or any of its affiliates in connection with any Cash Settlement of the Transaction not to meet the requirements of the safe harbor provided by Rule 10b-18 under the
Exchange Act if such purchases were made by Party B. 


  

	 	(h)	Party B will not engage in any “distribution” (as defined in Regulation M under the Exchange Act (“Regulation M”)) that would cause a
“restricted period” (as defined in Regulation M) to occur during any Unwind Period. 

  

	 	(i)	Party B is an “eligible contract participant” (as such term is defined in Section 1a(12) of the Commodity Exchange Act, as amended).


  

	 	(j)	In addition to any other requirements set forth herein, Party B agrees not to elect Cash Settlement if, in the reasonable judgment of either Party A or Party B, such
settlement or Party A’s related market activity would result in a violation of the U.S. federal securities laws or any other federal or state law or regulation applicable to Party B. 

  

	 	(k)	Party B agrees it will not treat ownership positions held by Party A or any of its affiliates solely in its (or their) capacity as a nominee or fiduciary as
constituting Beneficial Ownership or Constructive Ownership (as such terms are defined in Party B’s Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended from time to time (the “Charter”)) by Party A. 

  

	 	(l)	Party B has all necessary corporate power and authority to grant the ownership waiver (the “Waiver”) evidenced by the Secretary’s Certificate dated
December 4, 2009 delivered by Party B to Party A and entitled “Certified Resolutions Relating to Adoption of Ownership Waiver for Wachovia Bank, National Association” (the “Waiver Certificate”) and to execute and deliver the
Waiver Certificate and perform its obligations in respect of the Waiver; such execution, delivery and performance have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on Party B’s part; and the Waiver Certificate has been duly and
validly executed and delivered by Party B and constitutes its valid and binding obligation, enforceable against Party B in accordance with its terms. 

  

	 	(m)	Neither the execution and delivery of the Waiver evidenced by the Waiver Certificate nor the incurrence or performance of obligations of Party B thereunder will
(1) conflict with or result in a breach of the certificate of incorporation or by laws (or any equivalent documents) of Party B, (2) conflict with or result in a breach of any applicable law or regulation, or any order, writ, injunction or
decree of any court or governmental authority or agency, or (3) conflict with, result in a breach of or default under, or result in the creation of any lien under, any agreement or instrument to which Party B or any of its subsidiaries is a
party or by which Party B or any of its subsidiaries is bound or to which Party B or any of its subsidiaries is subject, in each case, that is filed as an exhibit to Party B’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008
as updated by any subsequent filings. 

 Covenant of Party B: 
 The parties acknowledge and agree that any Shares delivered by Party B to Party A on any Settlement Date will be newly issued Shares and
when delivered by Party A (or an affiliate of Party A) to securities lenders from whom Party A (or an affiliate of Party A) borrowed Shares in connection with hedging its exposure to the Transaction will be freely saleable without further
registration or other restrictions under the Securities Act, in the hands of those securities lenders, irrespective of whether such stock loan is effected by Party A or an affiliate of Party A. Accordingly, Party B agrees that the Shares that it
delivers to Party A on each Settlement Date will not bear a restrictive legend and that such Shares will be deposited in, and the delivery thereof shall be effected through the facilities of, the Clearance System. 
  

 8 







 Covenants of Party A: 
  

	 	(a)	Unless the provisions set forth below under “Private Placement Procedures” shall be applicable, Party A shall use any Shares delivered by Party B to Party A
on any Settlement Date to return to securities lenders to close out open Share loans created by Party A or an affiliate of Party A in the course of Party A’s or such affiliate’s hedging activities related to Party A’s exposure under
this Confirmation. 

  

	 	(b)	In connection with bids and purchases of Shares in connection with any Cash Settlement of the Transaction, Party A shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to
conduct its activities, or cause its affiliates to conduct their activities, in a manner consistent with the requirements of the safe harbor provided by Rule 10b-18 under the Exchange Act, as if such provisions were applicable to such purchases.


 Insolvency Filing: 
 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the Agreement or in the Definitions, upon any Insolvency Filing in respect of the Issuer, the Transaction shall automatically terminate on the date
thereof without further liability of either party to this Confirmation to the other party (except for any liability in respect of any breach of representation or covenant by a party under this Confirmation prior to the date of such Insolvency
Filing). 
 Extraordinary Dividends: 
 If an ex-dividend date for an Extraordinary Dividend occurs on or after the Trade Date and on or prior to the Maturity Date (or, if later, the last date on which Shares are delivered by Party B to Party A
in settlement of the Transaction), Party B shall pay an amount, as determined by the Calculation Agent, in cash equal to the product of such Extraordinary Dividend and the Base Amount to Party A on the earlier of (i) the date on which such
Extraordinary Dividend is paid by the Issuer to holders of record of the Shares or (ii) the Maturity Date. “Extraordinary Dividend” means the per Share amount of any cash dividend or distribution declared by the Issuer with respect to
the Shares that is specified by the board of directors of the Issuer as an “extraordinary” dividend and shall not include any cash dividend or distribution that is not so specified as an “extraordinary” dividend. 
 Acceleration Events: 
 The following events shall each constitute an “Acceleration Event”: 
  

	 	(a)	Stock Borrow Events. In the sole judgment of Party A (i) Party A is unable to hedge Party A’s exposure to the Transaction because (A) of the lack
of sufficient Shares being made available for Share borrowing by lenders, or (B) it is otherwise commercially impracticable (a “Stock Borrow Event”); 

  

	 	(b)	 Dividends and Other Distributions. On any day occurring after the Trade Date Party B declares a distribution, issue or dividend to existing
holders of the Shares of (i) any cash dividend (other than an Extraordinary Dividend) to the extent all cash dividends having an ex-dividend date during the period from and including any Forward Price Reduction Date (with the Trade Date being a
Forward Price Reduction Date for purposes of this clause (b) only) to but excluding the next subsequent Forward Price Reduction Date exceeds, on a per Share basis, the Forward Price Reduction Amount set forth opposite the first date of any such
period on Schedule I or (ii) share capital or securities of another issuer acquired or owned (directly or indirectly) by Party B as a result of a spin-off or other similar transaction or (iii) any other



  

 9 








	 	 
type of securities (other than Shares), rights or warrants or other assets, for payment (cash or other consideration) at less than the prevailing market price as determined by Party A;



  

	 	(c)	ISDA Early Termination Date. Either Party A or Party B has the right to designate an Early Termination Date pursuant to Section 6 of the Agreement;


  

	 	(d)	Other ISDA Events. The announcement of any event that if consummated, would result in an Extraordinary Event or the occurrence of any Change in Law or a
Delisting; provided that in case of a Delisting, in addition to the provisions of Section 12.6(a)(iii) of the 2002 Definitions, it will also constitute a Delisting if the Exchange is located in the United States and the Shares are not
immediately re-listed, re-traded or re-quoted on any of the New York Stock Exchange, the American Stock Exchange, the NASDAQ Global Select Market or the NASDAQ Global Market (or their respective successors); and provided further that the
definition of “Change in Law” provided in Section 12.9(a)(ii) of the Equity Definitions is hereby amended by (i) replacing the phrase “the interpretation” in the third line thereof with the phrase “or public
announcement of the formal or informal interpretation” and (ii) immediately following the word “Transaction” in clause (X) thereof, adding the phrase “in the manner contemplated by Party A on the Trade Date”; or


  

	 	(e)	Ownership Event. In the sole judgment of Party A, on any day, the Share Amount for such day exceeds the Post-Effective Limit for such day (if any applies).


 For purposes of clause (e) above, the “Share Amount” as of any day is the number of Shares that
Party A and any person whose ownership position would be aggregated with that of Party A (Party A or any such person, a “Party A Person”) under any law, rule, regulation or regulatory order that for any reason becomes applicable to
ownership of Shares after the Trade Date (“Applicable Laws”), owns, beneficially owns, constructively owns, controls, holds the power to vote or otherwise meets a relevant definition of ownership of under the Applicable Laws, as determined
by Party A in its reasonable discretion. The “Post-Effective Limit” means (x) the minimum number of Shares that would give rise to reporting or registration obligations or other requirements (including obtaining prior approval from
any person or entity) of a Party A Person, or would result in an adverse effect on a Party A Person, under the Applicable Laws, as determined by Party A in its reasonable discretion, minus (y) 1% of the number of Shares outstanding.

 Termination Settlement: 
 Upon the occurrence of any Acceleration Event, Party A shall have the right to designate, upon at least one Scheduled Trading Day’s notice, any Scheduled Trading Day following such occurrence to be a
Settlement Date hereunder (a “Termination Settlement Date”) to which Physical Settlement shall apply, and to select the number of Settlement Shares relating to such Termination Settlement Date; provided that (i) in the case of
an Acceleration Event arising out of an Ownership Event, the number of Settlement Shares so designated by Party A shall not exceed the number of Shares necessary to reduce the Share Amount to the Post-Effective Limit and (ii) in the case of an
Acceleration Event arising out of a Stock Borrow Event the number of Settlement Shares so designated by Party A shall not exceed the number of Shares as to which such Stock Borrow Event exists. If, upon designation of a Termination Settlement Date
by Party A pursuant to the preceding sentence, Party B fails to deliver the Settlement Shares relating to such Termination Settlement Date when due or otherwise fails to perform obligations within its control in respect of the Transaction, it shall
be an Event of Default with respect to Party B and Section 6 of the Agreement shall apply. If an Acceleration Event occurs during an Unwind Period relating to a number of Settlement Shares to which Cash Settlement applies, then on the
Termination Settlement Date relating to such Acceleration Event, notwithstanding any election to the contrary by Party B, Cash Settlement shall apply to the portion of the Settlement Shares relating to such Unwind Period as to which Party A has
unwound its hedge and Physical Settlement shall apply in respect of (x) the

  

 10 







 
remainder (if any) of such Settlement Shares and (y) the Settlement Shares designated by Party A in respect of such Termination Settlement Date. 
 Private Placement Procedures 
 If Party B is unable to comply with the provisions of “Covenant of Party B” above because of a change in law or a change in the policy of the Securities and Exchange Commission or its staff, or
Party A otherwise determines that in its reasonable opinion any Settlement Shares to be delivered to Party A by Party B may not be freely returned by Party A or its affiliates to securities lenders as described under “Covenant of Party B”
above, then delivery of any such Settlement Shares (the “Restricted Shares”) shall be effected pursuant to Annex A hereto, unless waived by Party A. 
 Rule 10b5-1: 
 It is the intent of Party A and Party B that following any
election of Cash Settlement by Party B, the purchase of Shares by Party A during any Unwind Period comply with the requirements of Rule 10b5-1(c)(1)(i)(B) of the Exchange Act and that this Confirmation shall be interpreted to comply with the
requirements of Rule 10b5-1(c). 
 Party B acknowledges that (i) during any Unwind Period Party B does not have, and shall
not attempt to exercise, any influence over how, when or whether to effect purchases of Shares by Party A (or its agent or affiliate) in connection with this Confirmation and (ii) Party B is entering into the Agreement and this Confirmation in
good faith and not as part of a plan or scheme to evade compliance with federal securities laws including, without limitation, Rule 10b-5 promulgated under the Exchange Act. 
 Party B hereby agrees with Party A that during any Unwind Period Party B shall not communicate, directly or indirectly, any Material
Non-Public Information (as defined herein) to any EDG Personnel (as defined below). For purposes of the Transaction, “Material Non-Public Information” means information relating to Party B or the Shares that (a) has not been widely

payment and/or delivery instructions to Party B directing it to make its payments and/or deliveries under the Transaction to an account of the Agent for remittance to Party A (or its designee), and for that purpose any such payment or delivery by
Party B to the Agent shall be treated as a payment or delivery to Party A.

Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and will reimburse any Indemnified Party for all reasonable expenses (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) as they are incurred in connection with the investigation of,
preparation for, or defense of any pending or threatened claim or any action or proceeding arising therefrom, whether or not such Indemnified Party is a party thereto. Party B will not be liable under this Indemnity paragraph to the extent that any

	4.	The Agreement is further supplemented by the following provisions: 

 No Collateral or Setoff.: 
 Notwithstanding Section 6(f) or any other
provision of the Agreement or any other agreement between the parties to the contrary, the obligations of Party B hereunder are not secured by any collateral. Obligations under the Transaction shall not be set off against any other obligations of
the parties, whether arising under the Agreement, this Confirmation, under any other agreement between the parties hereto, by operation of law or otherwise, and no other obligations of the parties shall be set off against obligations under the
Transaction, whether arising under the Agreement, this Confirmation, under any other agreement between the parties hereto, by operation of law or otherwise, and each party hereby waives any such right of setoff. In calculating any amounts under
Section 6(e) of the Agreement, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Agreement, (a) separate amounts shall be calculated as set forth in such Section 6(e) with respect to (i) the Transaction and (ii) all other
Transactions, and (b) such separate amounts shall be payable pursuant to Section 6(d)(ii) of the Agreement. 
 Status of Claims in Bankruptcy: 
 Party A acknowledges and agrees that this confirmation is not intended to
convey to Party A rights with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby that are senior to the claims of common stockholders in any U.S. bankruptcy proceedings of Party B; provided, however, that nothing herein shall limit or shall be
deemed to limit Party A’s right to pursue remedies in the event of a breach by Party B of its obligations and agreements with respect to this Confirmation and the Agreement; and provided further, that nothing herein shall limit or shall
be deemed to limit Party A’s rights in respect of any transaction other than the Transaction. 
  

 13 







 Limit on Beneficial Ownership: 
 Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, Party A shall not be entitled to take delivery of any Shares deliverable hereunder (whether in
connection with the purchase of Shares on any Settlement Date or any Termination Settlement Date, any Private Placement Settlement or otherwise) to the extent (but only to the extent) that, after such receipt of any Shares hereunder, (i) the
Share Amount would exceed the Post-Effective Limit, or (ii) Party A and each person subject to aggregation of Shares with Party A under Section 13 or Section 16 of the Exchange Act and rules promulgated thereunder (the “Party A
Group”) would directly or indirectly beneficially own (as such term is defined for purposes of Section 13 or Section 16 of the Exchange Act and rules promulgated thereunder) in excess of 8.0% of the then outstanding Shares (the
“Threshold Number of Shares”). Any purported delivery hereunder shall be void and have no effect to the extent (but only to the extent) that, after such delivery, (i) the Share Amount would exceed the Post-Effective Limit, or
(ii) Party A Group would directly or indirectly so beneficially own in excess of the Threshold Number of Shares. If any delivery owed to Party A hereunder is not made, in whole or in part, as a result of this provision, Party B’s
obligation to make such delivery shall not be extinguished and Party B shall make such delivery as promptly as practicable after, but in no event later than one Exchange Business Day after, Party A gives notice to Party B that, after such delivery,
(i) the Share Amount would not exceed the Post-Effective Limit, and (ii) Party A Group would not directly or indirectly so beneficially own in excess of the Threshold Number of Shares. 
 In addition, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if any delivery owed to Party A hereunder is not made, in whole or in part, as
a result of the immediately preceding paragraph, Party A shall be permitted to make any payment due in respect of such Shares to Party B in two or more tranches that correspond in amount to the number of Shares delivered by Party B to Party A
pursuant to the immediately preceding paragraph. 
 Ownership Limits Imposed by Charter: 
 Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, Party A shall not have the right to receive Settlement Shares (whether in connection with the
purchase of Shares on any Settlement Date or any Termination Settlement Date, any Private Placement Settlement, or otherwise) to the extent (but only to the extent) that the number of Settlement Shares, when aggregated with the total number of
Shares otherwise Beneficially Owned or Constructively Owned by Party A or its Affiliates, would cause Party A or any Affiliate, directly or indirectly, individually or in the aggregate, to Beneficially Own in excess of 7.0% (or such greater
percentage as permitted by the Board of Directors of Party B pursuant to the Charter) of the outstanding Capital Stock of Party B or Constructively Own in excess of 9.8% of the outstanding Capital Stock of Party B (collectively, the “Ownership
Limitations”). For purposes of this paragraph, “Affiliate” shall mean: (i) any person, other than an individual, treated as owning stock of Party A, and (ii) any person, other than an individual, in which Party A is treated
as owning stock, in either case pursuant to Code Section 544, as modified by Code Section 856(h)(1)(B). For purposes of this paragraph, “Person,” “Beneficially Own,” “Constructively Own,” and “Capital
Stock” shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Charter. 
 In the event that Party B elects Physical
Settlement, but all or some portion of Settlement Shares cannot be delivered to Party A because of the Ownership Limitations, Party B may elect to deliver to Party A the maximum number of Shares allowable for Party A and its Affiliates to be in
compliance with the Ownership Limitations and deliver the remaining Shares subject to the Physical Settlement, on one or more days, as promptly as practicable after, but in no event later than one Exchange Business Day after, Party A gives notice to
Party B that with respect to any such delivery, the number of Shares to be received when aggregated with the total number of Shares otherwise Beneficially Owned or Constructively Owned by Party A or its Affiliates, would not cause Party A or any
Affiliate, directly or indirectly, individually or in the aggregate, to violate the Ownership Limitations.

Unwind Period for the Other Forward coincides for any period of time with an Unwind Period for the Transaction (the “Overlap Unwind Period”), Party B shall notify Party A prior to the commencement of such Overlap Unwind Period, and Party A
shall only be permitted to purchase Shares to unwind its hedge in respect of the Transaction on every other Exchange Business Day that is not a Suspension Day during such Overlap Unwind Period, commencing on the second day of such Overlap Unwind
Period.

 If any term, provision, covenant or condition of this Confirmation, or the application thereof to any party or circumstance, shall be held to be invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part for any
reason, the remaining terms, provisions, covenants, and conditions hereof shall continue in full force and effect as if this Confirmation had been executed with the invalid or unenforceable provision eliminated, so long as this Confirmation as so
modified continues to express, without material change, the original intentions of the parties as to the subject matter of this Confirmation and the deletion of such portion of this Confirmation will not substantially impair the respective benefits
or expectations of parties to this Agreement; provided, however, that this severability provision shall not be applicable if any provision of Section 2, 5, 6 or 13 of the Agreement (or any definition or provision in Section 14 to the
extent that it relates to, or is used in or in connection with any such Section) shall be so held to be invalid or unenforceable.

 ANNEX A 
 PRIVATE PLACEMENT PROCEDURES 
  

	(i)	If Party B delivers the Restricted Shares pursuant to this clause (i) (a “Private Placement Settlement”), then delivery of Restricted Shares by Party B
shall be effected in customary private placement procedures with respect to such Restricted Shares reasonably acceptable to Party A; provided that if, on or before the date that a Private Placement Settlement would occur, Party B has taken,
or caused to be taken, any action that would make unavailable either the exemption pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act for the sale by Party B to Party A (or any affiliate designated by Party A) of the Restricted Shares or the
exemption pursuant to Section 4(1) or Section 4(3) of the Securities Act for resales of the Restricted Shares by Party A (or any such affiliate of Party A) or Party B fails to deliver the Restricted Shares when due or otherwise fails to
perform obligations within its control in respect of a Private Placement Settlement, it shall be an Event of Default with respect to Party B and Section 6 of the Agreement shall apply. The Private Placement Settlement of such Restricted Shares
shall include customary representations, covenants, blue sky and other governmental filings and/or registrations, indemnities to Party A, due diligence rights (for Party A or any designated buyer of the Restricted Shares by Party A), opinions and
certificates, and such other documentation as is customary for private placement agreements, all reasonably acceptable to Party A. In the case of a Private Placement Settlement, Party A shall, in its good faith discretion, adjust the amount of
Restricted Shares to be delivered to Party A hereunder in a commercially reasonable manner to reflect the fact that such Restricted Shares may not be freely returned to securities lenders by Party A and may only be saleable by Party A at a discount
to reflect the lack of liquidity in Restricted Shares. Notwithstanding the Agreement or this Confirmation, the date of delivery of such Restricted Shares shall be the Clearance System Business Day following notice by Party A to Party B of the number
of Restricted Shares to be delivered pursuant to this clause (i). For the avoidance of doubt, delivery of Restricted Shares shall be due as set forth in the previous sentence and not be due on the Settlement Date or Termination Settlement Date that
would otherwise be applicable. 

  

	(ii)	If Party B delivers any Restricted Shares in respect of the Transaction, Party B agrees that (i) such Shares may be transferred by and among Party A and its
affiliates and (ii) after the minimum “holding period” within the meaning of Rule 144(d) under the Securities Act has elapsed after the applicable Settlement Date, Party B shall promptly remove, or cause the transfer agent for the
Shares to remove, any legends referring to any transfer restrictions from such Shares upon delivery by Party A (or such affiliate of Party A) to Party B or such transfer agent of seller’s and broker’s representation letters customarily
delivered by Party A or its affiliates in connection with resales of restricted securities pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act, each without any further requirement for the delivery of any certificate, consent, agreement, opinion of
counsel, notice or any other document, any transfer tax stamps or payment of any other amount or any other action by Party A (or such affiliate of Party A).
