 THIS AMENDED AND RESTATED TAX BENEFITS PRESERVATION PLAN (this “Plan”) dated as of February 17, 2011, between The PMI Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the
“Company”), and American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC, as Rights Agent (the “Rights Agent”), amends and restates that certain Tax Benefits Preservation Plan, dated as of August 12, 2010 (the
“Original Plan”). 
 W I T N E S S E T H 

WHEREAS, (a) the Company and certain of its Subsidiaries have generated certain Tax Benefits (as defined below) for United States
federal income tax purposes; (b) the Company desires to avoid an “ownership change” within the meaning of Section 382 (as defined below), and thereby preserve the Company’s ability to utilize such Tax Benefits, and
(c) in furtherance of such objective, the Company desires to enter into this Plan; 
 WHEREAS, in connection with the
Original Plan, on August 12, 2010, the Board of Directors of the Company authorized and declared a dividend of one preferred stock purchase right (a “Right”) for each share of Common Stock (as defined below) outstanding at the
close of business (as defined below) on August 23, 2010 (the “Record Date”) and authorized the issuance, upon the terms and subject to the conditions herein, of one Right (subject to adjustment) in respect of each share of
Common Stock issued after the Record Date, each Right representing the right to purchase, upon the terms and subject to the conditions herein, one one-millionth (subject to adjustment) of a share of Preferred Stock (as defined below); 

NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto agree as follows: 
 Section 1. Definitions. The following terms, as used herein, have the following meanings: 
 “5% Shareholder” means (i) a Person or group of Persons that is a “5-percent shareholder” of the Company pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.382-2T(g) or
(ii) a Person that is a “first tier entity” or “higher tier entity” (as such terms are defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.382-2T(f)) of the Company if that Person has a “public group” or individual, or a
“higher tier entity” of that Person has a “public group” or individual, that is treated as a “5-percent shareholder” of the Company pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.382-2T(g). 

“Acquire” (or “Own”) means to obtain (or have, respectively) ownership for purposes of Section 382
of the Code without regard to the constructive ownership rules described in Treasury Regulation Section 1.382-2T(h)(2), (h)(3) and (k) (and “Acquisition” shall have a correlative meaning). 

“Acquiring Person” means any Person who or which is or becomes a 5% Shareholder (other than by reason of Treasury
Regulation Section 1.382-2T(j)(3)(i) or solely as a result of a transaction in which no “5-percent shareholder” (as defined in Section 382 of the Code and Treasury Regulations thereunder) experiences an increase in its percentage
stock ownership interest of the Company, as determined in accordance with Treasury Regulation Sections 1.382-2(a), 1.382- 2T(g), (h), (j) and (k)), whether or not such Person continues to be a 5% Shareholder, but shall not include: 

 

	 	(i)	any Exempt Person; 

  

	 	(ii)	any Grandfathered Person; 

  

	 	(iii)	any Person who or which the Board determines, in its sole discretion, has inadvertently become a 5% Shareholder (or has inadvertently failed to continue to qualify as a
Grandfathered Person), so long as such Person promptly enters into, and delivers to the 








	 	 
Company, an irrevocable commitment promptly to divest and thereafter promptly divests (without exercising or retaining any power, including voting, with respect to such securities), sufficient
Company Securities so that such Person’s Percentage Stock Ownership is less than 5% (or, in the case of any Person who or which has inadvertently failed to continue to qualify as a Grandfathered Person, the Company Securities that caused such
Person to so fail to qualify as a Grandfathered Person); 


  

	 	(iv)	any Person that has become a 5% Shareholder if the Board in good faith determines that such Person’s attainment of 5% Shareholder status has not jeopardized or
endangered the Company’s utilization of the Tax Benefits or is otherwise in the best interests of the Company; provided that such Person does not increase its Percentage Stock Ownership over such Person’s lowest Percentage Stock
Ownership immediately following such determination by the Board, other than any increase pursuant to or as a result of (A) a stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split or similar transaction effected by the Company or (B) any
redemption of Company Securities by the Company; and provided further that such Person shall be an “Acquiring Person” if the Board makes a contrary determination in good faith; 


 

	 	(v)	any Person if, on the date that would have been (absent this clause (v) of the definition of “Acquiring Person”) a Stock Acquisition Date with respect to
such Person, such Person does not Beneficially Own any Company Securities; and 

  

	 	(vi)	any Person that Beneficially Owns at least a majority of the Common Stock following consummation of a Qualified Offer.

common control with, such other Person. For purposes of this definition, “control” (including, with correlative meanings, the terms “controlled by” and “under common control with”) when used with

A Person shall be deemed the “Beneficial Owner” of, and shall be deemed to “Beneficially Own,” any

tender or exchange offer by any Person if, upon consummation thereof, such Person would or could be an Acquiring Person; provided, however, that if either of such dates occurs after the public announcement of this Plan and on or prior

its shareholders, (v) the repeal or amendment of Section 382 or any successor statute, if the Board of Directors determines that this Plan is no longer necessary for the preservation of Tax Benefits, (vi) such time as the Board of
Directors determines that a limitation on the use of the Tax Benefits under Section 382 would no longer be material to the Company and (vii) August 11, 2011, if stockholder approval of this Plan has not been received before such time.
The Board of Directors shall at least annually consider whether to make the determination provided by clause (vi) above in light of all relevant factors, including, in particular, the amount and anticipated utilization of the Company’s Tax

B hereto, by first class mail, postage prepaid, to each record holder of the Common Stock as of the close of business on the Record Date. Certificates for the Common Stock, or current ownership statements issued with respect to uncertificated shares
of Common Stock in lieu of such a certificate (an “Ownership Statement”) (which Ownership Statements shall be deemed to be Right Certificates), issued after the Record Date but prior to the earlier of a Distribution Date and the
Expiration Date shall have printed or written on or otherwise affixed to them the following legend: 
 This [certificate]
[statement] also evidences certain Rights as set forth in an Amended and Restated Tax Benefits Preservation Plan between The PMI Group, Inc. (the “Company”) and American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC, as Rights Agent,
dated as of February 17, 2011, and as amended from time to time (the “Plan”), the terms of which are hereby incorporated herein by reference and a copy of which is on file at the principal executive offices of the Company. The
Company will mail to the holder of this [certificate] [statement] a copy of the Plan without charge promptly after receipt of a written request therefor. Under certain circumstances, as set forth in the Plan, such Rights may be evidenced by separate
[certificate] [statements] instead of by this [certificate] [statement] and may be redeemed or exchanged or may expire. 
 As
set forth in the Plan, Rights issued or transferred to, or Beneficially Owned by, any Person who is, was or becomes an Acquiring Person (as such terms are defined in the Plan), whether currently Beneficially Owned by or on behalf of such Person or
by any subsequent holder, may be null and void. 
 (b) Prior to a Distribution Date, (i) the Rights will be evidenced
by certificates for the Common Stock or Ownership Statements and not by separate Right Certificates (as hereinafter defined) and the registered holders of the Common Stock shall be deemed to be the registered holders of the associated Rights, and
(ii) the Rights will be transferable only in connection with the transfer of the underlying shares of Common Stock. 
 (c)
From and after a Distribution Date, the Rights will be evidenced solely by separate Right Certificates or Ownership Statements and will be transferable only in connection with the transfer of the Right Certificates pursuant to Section 5. As
soon as practicable after the Company has notified the Rights Agent of the occurrence of a Distribution Date, the Rights Agent will send, by first class, insured, postage prepaid mail, to each record holder of the Common Stock as of the close of
business on the Distribution Date (other than any Acquiring Person), one or more Right Certificates evidencing one Right (subject to adjustment as provided herein) for each share of Common Stock so held. If an adjustment in the number of Rights per
share of Common Stock has been made pursuant to Section 9, the Company shall, at the time of distribution of the Right Certificates, make the necessary and appropriate rounding adjustments in accordance with Section 11(a) so that Right
Certificates representing only whole numbers of Rights are distributed and cash is paid in lieu of any fractional Rights. 

  
 6 







 (d) Rights shall be issued in respect of all shares of Common Stock outstanding as of the
Record Date or issued (on original issuance or out of treasury) after the Record Date but prior to the earlier of a Distribution Date and the Expiration Date. In addition, in connection with the issuance or sale of shares of Common Stock following a
Distribution Date and prior to the Expiration Date, the Company (x) shall, with respect to shares of Common Stock so issued or sold (i) pursuant to the exercise of stock options or under any employee plan or arrangement or (ii) upon
the exercise, conversion or exchange of other securities issued by the Company prior to the Distribution Date, and (y) may, in any other case, if deemed appropriate by the Board, issue Right Certificates representing the appropriate number of
Rights in connection with such issuance or sale; provided that no such Right Certificate shall be issued if, and to the extent that, appropriate adjustment shall otherwise be made in lieu of the issuance thereof. 

Section 4. Form of Right Certificates. (a) The certificates evidencing the Rights (and the forms of assignment, election
to purchase and certificates to be printed on the reverse thereof) (the “Right Certificates”) shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit C hereto and may have such marks of identification or designation and such legends,
summaries or endorsements printed thereon as the Company may deem appropriate and as are not inconsistent with the provisions of this Plan, or as may be required to comply with any applicable law, rule or regulation or with any rule or regulation of
any stock exchange on which the Rights may from time to time be listed, or to conform to usage. The Right Certificates, whenever distributed, shall be dated as of the Record Date. 

(b) The Right Certificates shall be executed on behalf of the Company by its Chief Executive Officer, its President, or any Vice
President, either manually or by facsimile signature, and shall have affixed thereto the Company’s seal or a facsimile thereof which shall be attested by the Secretary, an Assistant Secretary, the Treasurer or any Assistant Treasurer of the
Company, either manually or by facsimile signature. The Right Certificates shall be countersigned, either manually or by facsimile signature, by the Rights Agent and shall not be valid for any purpose unless so countersigned. In case any officer of
the Company whose manual or facsimile signature is affixed to the Right Certificates ceases to be such officer of the Company before countersignature by the Rights Agent and issuance and delivery by the Company, such Right Certificates may,
nevertheless, be countersigned by the Rights Agent and issued and delivered with the same force and effect as though the Person who signed such Right Certificates had not ceased to be such officer of the Company. Any Right Certificate may be signed
on behalf of the Company by any Person who, at the actual date of the execution of such Right Certificate, shall be a proper officer of the Company to sign such Right Certificate, although at the date of the execution of this Plan any such Person
was not such an officer. 
 (c) Notwithstanding any of the provisions of this Plan or of the Rights to the contrary, the Company
may, at its option, issue new Right Certificates evidencing Rights in such form as may be approved by its Board to reflect any adjustment or change in the Purchase Price and the number or kind or class of shares of stock issuable upon exercise of
the Rights made in accordance with the provisions of this Plan. 
 Section 5. Registration; Transfer and Exchange of
Right Certificates; Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Right Certificates. (a) Following a Distribution Date, the Rights Agent shall keep or cause to be kept, at its principal office or offices designated as the place for surrender of
Right Certificates upon exercise, transfer or exchange, books for registration and transfer of the Right Certificates. Such books shall show with respect to each Right Certificate the name and address of the registered holder thereof, the number of
Rights indicated on the certificate and the certificate number. 
 (b) At any time after a Distribution Date and prior to the
Expiration Date, any Right Certificate or Certificates may, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Plan, be transferred or exchanged for another Right Certificate or Certificates evidencing a like number of Rights as the
Right Certificate or Certificates surrendered. Any registered holder desiring to transfer or exchange 

  
 7 







 
any Right Certificate or Certificates shall surrender such Right Certificate or Certificates (with, in the case of a transfer, the form of assignment and certificate on the reverse side thereof
duly executed) to the Rights Agent at the principal office or offices of the Rights Agent designated for such purpose. Neither the Rights Agent nor the Company shall be obligated to take any action whatsoever with respect to the transfer of any such
surrendered Right Certificate or Certificates until the registered holder of the Rights has complied with the requirements of Section 6(f). Upon satisfaction of the foregoing requirements, the Rights Agent shall, subject to Sections 6(e),
6(f), 8(e), 11 and 20, countersign and deliver to the Person entitled thereto a Right Certificate or Certificates as so requested. The Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or other governmental charge that may be
imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of any Right Certificate or Certificates. 
 (c) Upon receipt by the Company
and the Rights Agent of evidence reasonably satisfactory to them of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of a Right Certificate, and, in case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to them, and, at the
Company’s request, reimbursement to the Company and the Rights Agent of all reasonable expenses incidental thereto, and upon surrender to the Rights Agent and cancellation of the Right Certificate if mutilated, the Company will issue and
deliver a new Right Certificate of like tenor to the Rights Agent for countersignature and delivery to the registered owner in lieu of the Right Certificate so lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated. 

Section 6. Exercise of Rights. (a) The registered holder of any Right Certificate may exercise the Rights evidenced
thereby (except as otherwise provided herein, including Sections 6(e), 6(f) and 8(c)) in whole or in part at any time after a Distribution Date and prior to the Expiration Date upon surrender of the Right Certificate, with the form of election to
purchase and the certificate on the reverse side thereof duly executed, to the Rights Agent at the principal office or offices of the Rights Agent designated for such purpose, together with payment (in lawful money of the United States of America by
certified check or bank draft payable in immediately available or next day funds to the order of the Company) of the aggregate Purchase Price with respect to the Rights then to be exercised and an amount equal to any applicable transfer tax or other
governmental charge. 
 (b) Upon satisfaction of the requirements of Section 6(a) and subject to Section 17(k), the
Rights Agent shall thereupon promptly (i)(A) requisition from any transfer agent of the Preferred Stock (or make available, if the Rights Agent is the transfer agent therefor) certificates for the total number of one one-millionths of a share of
Preferred Stock to be purchased (and the Company hereby irrevocably authorizes its transfer agent to comply with all such requests) or (B) if the Company shall have elected to deposit the shares of Preferred Stock issuable upon exercise of the
Rights with a depositary agent, requisition from the depositary agent depositary receipts representing interests in such number of one one-millionths of a share of Preferred Stock to be purchased (in which case certificates for the shares of
Preferred Stock represented by such receipts shall be deposited by the transfer agent with the depositary agent and the Company will direct the depositary agent to comply with such request), (ii) requisition from the Company the amount of cash,
if any, to be paid in lieu of issuance of fractional shares in accordance with Section 11 and (iii) after receipt of such certificates or depositary receipts and cash, if any, cause the same to be delivered to or upon the order of the
registered holder of such Right Certificate (with such certificates or receipts registered in such name or names as may be designated by such holder). If the Company is obligated to deliver Common Stock or other securities or assets pursuant to this
Plan, the Company will make all arrangements necessary so that such securities and assets are available for delivery by the Rights Agent, if and when appropriate. 
 (c) Each Person (other than the Company) in whose name any certificate for Preferred Stock is issued upon the exercise of Rights shall for all purposes be deemed to have become the holder of record of
such Preferred Stock represented thereby on, and such certificate shall be dated, the date upon which the Right Certificate evidencing such Rights was duly surrendered and payment of the Purchase Price (and any transfer taxes or other governmental
charges) was made; provided that if the date of such

surrender and payment is a date upon which the transfer books of the Company relating to the Preferred Stock are closed, such Person shall be deemed to have become the record holder of such
shares on, and such certificate shall be dated, the next succeeding Business Day on which the applicable transfer books of the Company are open. Prior to the exercise of the Rights evidenced thereby, the holder of a Right Certificate shall not be
entitled to any rights of a stockholder of the Company with respect to shares for which the Rights shall be exercisable, including the right to vote, to receive dividends or other distributions or to exercise any preemptive rights, and shall not be
entitled to receive any notice of any proceedings of the Company except as provided herein. 
 (d) In case the registered holder
of any Right Certificate shall exercise less than all the Rights evidenced thereby, a new Right Certificate evidencing the number of Rights remaining unexercised shall be issued by the Rights Agent and delivered to, or upon the order of, the
registered holder of such Right Certificate, registered in such name or names as may be designated by such holder, subject to the provisions of Section 12. 
 (e) Notwithstanding anything in this Plan to the contrary, any Rights Beneficially Owned by (i) an Acquiring Person from and after the date on which the Acquiring Person becomes such or (ii) a
transferee of Rights Beneficially Owned by an Acquiring Person who (A) becomes a transferee after the Stock Acquisition Date with respect to such Acquiring Person or (B) becomes a transferee prior to or concurrently with the Stock
Acquisition Date with respect to such Acquiring Person and receives such Rights (I) with actual knowledge that the transferor is or was an Acquiring Person or (II) pursuant to either (x) a transfer (whether or not for consideration)
from the Acquiring Person to holders of equity interests in such Acquiring Person or to any Person with whom the Acquiring Person has any continuing agreement, arrangement or understanding regarding the transferred Rights or (y) a transfer
which the Board determines in good faith is part of a plan, arrangement or understanding which has as a primary purpose or effect the avoidance of this Section 6(e), shall become null and void without any further action, and no holder of such
Rights shall have any rights whatsoever with respect to such Rights, whether under this Plan or otherwise. The Company shall use all reasonable efforts to insure that the provisions of this Section 6(e) are complied with, but shall have no
liability to any holder of Right Certificates or other Person as a result of its failure to make any determinations with respect to an Acquiring Person or any transferee of an Acquiring Person hereunder. 

(f) Notwithstanding anything in this Plan to the contrary, neither the Rights Agent nor the Company shall be obligated to undertake any
action with respect to any purported transfer pursuant to Section 5 or exercise pursuant to this Section 6 unless the registered holder of the applicable Rights (i) shall have completed and signed the certificate contained in the form
of assignment or election to purchase, as the case may be, set forth on the reverse side of the Right Certificate surrendered for such transfer or exercise, as the case may be, (ii) shall not have indicated an affirmative response to clause 1
or 2 thereof and (iii) shall have provided such additional evidence of the identity of the Beneficial Owner (or former Beneficial Owner) thereof as the Company shall reasonably request. 

Section 7. Cancellation and Destruction of Right Certificates. All Right Certificates surrendered for exercise, transfer or
exchange shall, if surrendered to the Company or to any of its agents, be delivered to the Rights Agent in canceled form, or, if surrendered to the Rights Agent, shall be canceled by it, and no Right Certificates shall be issued in lieu thereof
except as expressly permitted by this Plan. The Company shall deliver to the Rights Agent for cancellation, and the Rights Agent shall cancel, any other Right Certificate purchased or acquired by the Company otherwise than upon the exercise thereof.
The Rights Agent shall deliver all canceled Right Certificates to the Company, or shall, at the written request of the Company, destroy such canceled Right Certificates, and in such case shall deliver a certificate of destruction thereof to the
Company.

 Section 8. Reservation and Availability of Capital Stock. (a) The Company
covenants and agrees that it will cause to be reserved and kept available a number of authorized but not outstanding shares of Preferred Stock sufficient to permit the exercise in full of all outstanding Rights as provided in this Plan. 

(b) So long as the Preferred Stock or other securities issuable upon the exercise of Rights may be listed on any national securities
exchange, the Company shall use its best efforts to cause, from and after such time as the Rights become exercisable, all securities reserved for such issuance to be listed on any such exchange upon official notice of issuance upon such exercise.

 (c) The Company shall (i) file, as soon as practicable following the earliest date after a Stock Acquisition Date and
determination of the consideration to be delivered by the Company upon exercise of the Rights in accordance with Section 9(a)(ii), or as soon as is required by law following a Distribution Date, as the case may be, a registration statement
under the Securities Act with respect to the securities issuable upon exercise of the Rights, (ii) cause such registration statement to become effective as soon as practicable after such filing and (iii) cause such registration statement
to remain effective (with a prospectus at all times meeting the requirements of the Securities Act) until the earlier of (A) the date as of which the Rights are no longer exercisable for such securities and (B) the Expiration Date. The
Company shall also take such action as may be appropriate to ensure compliance with the securities or blue sky laws of the various states in connection with the exercisability of the Rights. The Company may temporarily suspend, for a period of time
not to exceed 90 days after the date set forth in Section 8(c)(i), the exercisability of the Rights in order to prepare and file such registration statement and permit it to become effective. Upon any such suspension, the Company shall issue a
public announcement stating that the exercisability of the Rights has been temporarily suspended, as well as a public announcement when the suspension is no longer in effect. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Plan to the contrary, the
Rights shall not be exercisable for securities in any jurisdiction if the requisite qualification in such jurisdiction has not been obtained, such exercise is not permitted under applicable law or a registration statement in respect of such
securities has not been declared effective. 
 (d) The Company shall take all such action as may be necessary to ensure that all
one one-millionths of a share of Preferred Stock or other securities issuable upon exercise of Rights shall, at the time of delivery of the certificates for such securities (subject to payment of the Purchase Price), be duly authorized, validly
issued, fully paid and nonassessable. 
 (e) The Company shall pay when due and payable any and all federal and state transfer
taxes and other governmental charges that may be payable in respect of the issuance or delivery of the Right Certificates and of any certificates for Preferred Stock or other securities upon the exercise of Rights. The Company shall not, however, be
required to pay any transfer tax or other governmental charge that may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance or delivery of any Right Certificates or any certificates for Preferred Stock or other securities to a Person other
than the registered holder of the applicable Right Certificate. Prior to any such issuance or delivery of any Right Certificates or any certificates for Preferred Stock or other securities, any such transfer tax or other governmental charge shall
have been paid by the holder of such Right Certificate or it shall have been established to the Company’s satisfaction that no such tax or other governmental charge is due. 

Section 9. Adjustment of Purchase Price, Number and Kind of Shares or Number of Rights. (a)(i) To preserve the actual or
potential economic value of the Rights, if at any time after the date hereof there shall be any change in the Common Stock or the Preferred Stock, whether by reason of stock dividends, stock splits, reverse stock splits, recapitalization, mergers,
consolidations, combinations or exchanges of securities, split-ups, split-offs, spin-offs, liquidations, other similar changes in capitalization, any distribution or issuance of cash, assets, evidences of indebtedness or subscription rights, options
or warrants to holders of Common Stock or Preferred Stock, as the case may be (other than 

  
 10 








 
distribution of the Rights or regular quarterly cash dividends) or otherwise, then, in each such event the Board shall make such appropriate adjustments in the number of shares of Preferred Stock
(or the number and kind of other securities) issuable upon exercise of each Right (or in exchange for any Right pursuant to Section 20), the Purchase Price and Redemption Price in effect at such time and/or the number of Rights outstanding at
such time (including the number of Rights or fractional Rights associated with each share of Common Stock) such that following such adjustment such event shall not have had the effect of reducing or limiting the benefits the holders of the Rights
would have had absent such event. If an event occurs that requires an adjustment under both this Section 9(a)(i) and Section 9(a)(ii), the adjustment provided for in this Section 9(a)(i) shall be made prior to, and in addition to, any
adjustment required pursuant to Section 9(a)(ii). 
 (ii) If any Person becomes at any time after the public
announcement of this Plan an Acquiring Person, then each holder of a Right shall (except as otherwise provided herein, including Section 6(e)) be entitled to receive upon exercise thereof (in accordance with the provisions of Section 6) at
the then current Purchase Price such number of one-millionths of a share of Preferred Stock for which a Right is then exercisable, in accordance with the terms of this Plan and in lieu of shares of Preferred Stock, such number of shares of Common
Stock equal to the result obtained by dividing 
 (x) the product obtained by multiplying the then current
Purchase Price by the number of one-millionths of a share of Preferred Stock for which a Right was exercisable immediately prior to such first occurrence (such product being from such time on the “Purchase Price” for each Right and for all
purposes of this Plan) by 
 (y) 50% of the current market price per share of Common Stock (determined pursuant
to Section 9(b)(i)) on the date of such first occurrence. 
 (iii) In the event that there shall not be
sufficient shares of Common Stock issued but not outstanding or authorized but unissued to permit the exercise in full of the Rights as contemplated in accordance with subparagraph (ii) above, the Company shall take all such action as may be
necessary to authorize additional shares of Common Stock for issuance upon exercise of the Rights. In the event the Company shall, after good faith effort, be unable to take such action as may be necessary to authorize such additional shares of
Common Stock, the Company shall substitute, for each share of Common Stock that would otherwise be issuable upon exercise of a Right, a number of shares of Preferred Stock or fraction thereof such that the current market price of one share of
Preferred Stock multiplied by such number or fraction is equal to the current market price of one share of Common Stock as of the date of issuance of such shares of Preferred Stock or fraction thereof. 

(b)(i) For purposes of computations hereunder other than computations made pursuant to Section 12, the “current market
price” per share of Common Stock on any date shall be the average of the daily closing prices per share of such Common Stock at the close of the regular session of trading for the 30 Trading Days immediately prior to such date; and for purposes
of computations made pursuant to Section 11, the “current market price” per share of Common Stock for any Trading Day shall be the closing price per share of Common Stock at the close of the regular session of trading for such Trading
Day; provided that if the current market price per share of the Common Stock is determined during a period that is in whole or in part following the announcement by the issuer of such Common Stock of (A) a dividend or distribution on
such Common Stock payable in shares of such Common Stock or securities exercisable for or convertible into shares of such Common Stock (other than the Rights), or (B) any subdivision, combination or reclassification of such Common Stock, and
prior to the ex-dividend date for such dividend or distribution or the record date for such subdivision, combination or reclassification, then, and in each such case, the “current market price” shall be properly adjusted to take into
account ex-dividend trading. The closing price for each day shall be the last sale price, regular way, at the close of the regular session of trading or, if no such sale takes place on such day, the average of the


  
 11 








 
closing bid and asked prices, regular way, in either case as reported in the principal consolidated transaction reporting system at the close of the regular session of trading with respect to
securities listed or admitted to trading on the New York Stock Exchange or, if the shares of Common Stock are not listed or admitted to trading on the New York Stock Exchange, on the principal national securities exchange on which the shares of
Common Stock are listed or admitted to trading or, if the shares of Common Stock are not listed or admitted to trading on any national securities exchange, the last quoted price or, if not so quoted, the average of the high bid and low asked prices
in the over-the- counter market, as reported by the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. Automated Quotation System or such other system then in use or, if on any such date the shares of Common Stock are not quoted by any such
organization, the average of the closing bid and asked prices as furnished by a professional market maker making a market in the Common Stock selected by the Board (in each case prices which are not identified as having been reported late to such
system). If on any such date, no market maker is making a market in the Common Stock or the Common Stock is not publicly held or not so listed or traded, the “current market value” of such shares on such date shall be as determined in good
faith by the Board (or, if at the time of such determination there is an Acquiring Person, by a nationally recognized investment banking firm selected by the Board) which determination shall be described in a statement filed with the Rights Agent
and shall be conclusive for all purposes. 
 (ii) For the purpose of any computation hereunder, the “current
market price” per share of Preferred Stock shall be determined in the same manner as set forth above for the Common Stock in Section 9(b)(i) (other than the last sentence thereof). If the current market price per share of Preferred Stock
cannot be determined in such manner, the “current market price” per share of Preferred Stock shall be conclusively deemed to be an amount equal to 1,000,000 (as such number may be appropriately adjusted for such events as stock splits,
reverse stock splits, stock dividends and recapitalizations with respect to the Common Stock occurring after the date of this Plan) multiplied by the current market price per share of Common Stock (as determined pursuant to Section 9(b)(i)).
For all purposes of this Plan, the “current market price” of one one-millionth of a share of Preferred Stock shall be equal to the “current market price” of one share of Preferred Stock divided by 1,000,000. 

(iii) For the purpose of any computation hereunder, the value of any securities or assets other than Common Stock or
Preferred Stock shall be the fair value as determined in good faith by the Board, or, if at the time of such determination there is an Acquiring Person, by a nationally recognized investment banking firm selected by the Board, which determination
shall be described in a statement filed with the Rights Agent and shall be conclusive for all purposes. 
 (c) Notwithstanding
any provision of this Plan to the contrary, no adjustment of any item described in Section 9(a)(i) (e.g., the Purchase Price, the Redemption Price, the number of shares of Preferred Stock issuable upon exercise of the Rights) shall be
required unless such adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least 1% in the relevant item; provided that any adjustments which by reason of this Section 9(c) are not required to be made shall be carried forward and taken
into account in any subsequent adjustment. All calculations under this Section 9 shall be made to the nearest cent or to the nearest ten-thousandth of a share of Common Stock or other share or one ten-billionth of a share of Preferred Stock, as
the case may be. 
 (d) All Rights originally issued by the Company subsequent to any adjustment made hereunder shall evidence
the right to purchase, at the Purchase Price then in effect, the then applicable number of one-millionths of a share of Preferred Stock and other capital stock issuable from time to time hereunder upon exercise of the Rights, all subject to further
adjustment as provided herein. 

  
 12 








 (e) Irrespective of any adjustment or change in the Purchase Price or the number of
one-millionths of a share of Preferred Stock or other securities issuable upon the exercise of the Rights, the Right Certificates theretofore and thereafter issued may continue to express the Purchase Price per one one-millionth of a share and the
number of shares which were expressed in the initial Right Certificates issued hereunder. 
 (f) In any case in which this
Section 9 shall require that an adjustment in the Purchase Price be made effective as of a record date for a specified event, the Company may elect to defer until the occurrence of such event the issuance to the holder of any Right exercised
after such record date the number of one-millionths of a share of Preferred Stock or other capital stock, if any, issuable upon such exercise over and above the number of one-millionths of a share of Preferred Stock or other capital stock, if any,
issuable upon such exercise on the basis of the Purchase Price in effect prior to such adjustment; provided that the Company shall deliver to such holder a due bill or other appropriate instrument evidencing such holder’s right to receive such
additional shares upon the occurrence of the event requiring such adjustment. 
 (g) Anything in this Section 9 to the
contrary notwithstanding, the Company shall be entitled to make such reductions in the Purchase Price, in addition to those adjustments expressly required by this Section 9, as and to the extent that it, in its sole discretion, determines to be
advisable so that any consolidation or subdivision of the Preferred Stock or Common Stock, issuance wholly for cash of any Preferred Stock or Common Stock at less than the current market price, issuance wholly for cash of any Preferred Stock, Common
Stock or securities which by their terms are convertible into or exercisable for Preferred Stock or Common Stock, stock dividends or issuance of rights, options or warrants referred to in this Section 9 hereafter made by the Company to the
holders of its Preferred Stock or Common Stock shall not be taxable to such stockholders. 
 (h) The Company agrees that after a
Distribution Date, it will not, except as permitted by Sections 19, 20 or 23, take (or permit any Subsidiary to take) any action if at the time such action is taken it is reasonably foreseeable that such action will substantially diminish or
otherwise eliminate the benefits intended to be afforded by the Rights. 
 Section 10. Certificate of Adjusted Purchase
Price or Number of Shares. Whenever an adjustment is made as provided in Section 9, the Company shall (i) promptly prepare a certificate setting forth such adjustment and a brief statement of the facts accounting for such adjustment,
(ii) promptly file with the Rights Agent and with each transfer agent for the Preferred Stock and the Common Stock a copy of such certificate and (iii) mail a brief summary thereof to each holder of a Right Certificate (or, if prior to a
Distribution Date, to each holder of a certificate representing shares of Common Stock) in the manner set forth in Section 22. The Rights Agent shall be fully protected in relying on any such certificate and on any adjustment therein contained.

 Section 11. Fractional Rights and Fractional Shares. (a) The Company is not required to issue fractions of
Rights or to distribute Right Certificates which evidence fractional Rights. In lieu of any such fractional Rights, the Company shall pay to the registered holders of the Right Certificates with regard to which such fractional Rights would otherwise
be issuable an amount in cash equal to the same fraction of the current market price of a whole Right. For purposes of this Section 11(a), the current market price of a whole Right shall be the closing price of a Right at the close of the
regular session of trading for the Trading Day immediately prior to the date on which such fractional Rights would otherwise have been issuable. The closing price of a Right for any day shall be determined in the manner set forth for the Common
Stock in Section 9(b)(i). 

  
 13 








 (b) The Company is not required to issue fractions of shares of Preferred Stock (other than
fractions which are multiples of one one-millionth of a share of Preferred Stock) upon exercise of the Rights or upon exchange of the Rights pursuant to Section 20(a), and the Company is not required to distribute certificates which evidence
fractional shares of Preferred Stock (other than fractions which are multiples of one one-millionth of a share of Preferred Stock). Fractions of shares of Preferred Stock in integral multiples of one one-millionth of a share of Preferred Stock may,
at the election of the Company, be evidenced by depositary receipts, pursuant to an appropriate agreement between the Company and a depositary selected by it; provided that such agreement shall provide that the holders of such depositary receipts
shall have all the rights, privileges and preferences to which they are entitled as beneficial owners of the Preferred Stock represented by such depositary receipts. In lieu of any such fractional shares of Preferred Stock, the Company shall pay to
the registered holders of Right Certificates at the time such Rights are exercised as herein provided an amount in cash equal to the same fraction of the current market price of one one-millionth of a share of Preferred Stock. For purposes of this
Section 11(b), the current market price of one one-millionth of a share of Preferred Stock shall be one one-millionth of the closing price of a share of Preferred Stock (as determined pursuant to Section 9(b)) for the Trading Day
immediately prior to the date of such exercise. 
 (c) Upon any exchange pursuant to Section 20(c), the Company shall not
be required to issue fractions of shares of Common Stock upon exercise of the Rights or to distribute certificates which evidence fractional shares of Common Stock. In lieu of fractional shares of Common Stock, the Company shall pay to the
registered holders of Right Certificates at the time such Rights are exercised or exchanged as herein provided an amount in cash equal to the same fraction of the current market price of a share of Common Stock. For purposes of this
Section 11(c), the current market price of a share of Common Stock shall be the closing price of a share of Common Stock (as determined pursuant to Section 9(b)) for the Trading Day immediately prior to the date of such exercise or
exchange. 
 (d) Each holder of a Right, by his acceptance of the Right, expressly waives his right to receive any fractional
Rights or any fractional shares upon exercise of a Right except as permitted by this Section 11. 
 Section 12.
Rights of Action. All rights of action in respect of this Plan, excepting the rights of action given to the Rights Agent under Section 15 hereof, are vested in the respective registered holders of the Right Certificates (and, before the
Distribution Date, the registered holders of the Common Stock); and any registered holder of any Right Certificate (or, before the Distribution Date, of the Common Stock), without the consent of the Rights Agent or of the holder of any other Right
Certificate (or, before the Distribution Date, of the Common Stock), on such holder’s own behalf and for such holder’s own benefit, may enforce, and may institute and maintain any suit, action or proceeding against the Company to enforce,
or otherwise act in respect of, such holder’s right to exercise the Rights evidenced by such Right Certificate (or, before the Distribution Date, such Common Stock) in the manner provided in such Rights Certificate and in this Plan. Without
limiting the foregoing or any remedies available to the holders of Rights, it is specifically acknowledged that the holders of Rights would not have an adequate remedy at law for any breach of this Plan and will be entitled to specific performance
of the obligations under, and injunctive relief against actual or threatened violations of, the obligations of any Person subject to this Plan 
 Section 13. Agreement of Right Holders. Each holder of a Right, by his acceptance of the Right, consents and agrees with the Company and the Rights Agent and with every other holder of a Right
that: 
 (a) prior to a Distribution Date, the Rights will be evidenced by and transferable only in connection with the transfer
of Common Stock; 
 (b) after a Distribution Date, the Rights will be evidenced by Right Certificates and transferable only on
the registry books of the Rights Agent pursuant to Section 5; 

  
 14 








 (c) subject to Sections 5 and 6, the Company and the Rights Agent may deem and treat the
Person in whose name a Right Certificate (or, prior to a Distribution Date, a certificate representing shares of Common Stock or an Ownership Statement) is registered as the absolute owner of such certificate and of the Rights evidenced thereby
(notwithstanding any notations of ownership or writing on the Right Certificate or the certificate representing shares of Common Stock or Ownership Statement made by anyone other than the Company or the Rights Agent) for all purposes whatsoever, and
neither the Company nor the Rights Agent, subject to the last sentence of Section 6(e), shall be affected by any notice to the contrary; and 
 (d) notwithstanding anything in this Plan to the contrary, neither the Company nor the Rights Agent shall have any liability to any holder of a Right or other Person as a result of its inability to
perform any of its obligations under this Plan by reason of any preliminary or permanent injunction or other order, decree or ruling issued by a court of competent jurisdiction or by a governmental, regulatory or administrative agency or commission,
or any statute, rule, regulation or executive order promulgated or enacted by any governmental authority prohibiting or otherwise restraining performance of such obligation; provided that the Company must use its reasonable best efforts to
have any such order, decree or ruling lifted or otherwise overturned as soon as possible. 
 Section 14. Right
Certificate Holder Not Deemed a Stockholder. No holder, as such, of any Right Certificate shall be entitled to vote, receive dividends or be deemed for any purpose the holder of the shares of capital stock which may at any time be issuable on
the exercise of the Rights represented thereby, nor shall anything contained herein or in any Right Certificate be construed to confer upon the holder of any Right Certificate, as such, any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company (including
any right to vote for the election of directors or upon any matter submitted to stockholders at any meeting thereof, to give or withhold consent to any corporate action, to receive notice of meetings or other actions affecting stockholders (except
as provided in Section 21), or to receive dividends or subscription rights, or otherwise) until the Right or Rights evidenced by such Right Certificate shall have been exercised in accordance with the provisions hereof. 

Section 15. Appointment of Rights Agent. (a) The Company hereby appoints the Rights Agent to act as agent for the
Company in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof, and the Rights Agent hereby accepts such appointment. The Company may from time to time appoint such co-rights agents as it may deem necessary or desirable, upon ten (10) days’
prior written notice to the Rights Agent. The Rights Agent shall have no duty to supervise, and shall in no event be liable for, the acts or omissions of any such co-rights agent. If the Company appoints one or more co-rights agents, the respective
duties of the Rights Agent and any co-rights agents shall be as the Company shall determine. 
 (b) The Company shall pay to the
Rights Agent reasonable compensation for all services rendered by it hereunder and, from time to time, on demand of the Rights Agent, its reasonable expenses and counsel fees and disbursements and other disbursements incurred in the execution or
administration of this Plan and the exercise and performance of its duties hereunder. The Company also shall indemnify the Rights Agent for, and to hold it harmless against, any loss, liability, or expense, incurred without negligence, bad faith or
willful misconduct on the part of the Rights Agent, for anything done or omitted by the Rights Agent in connection with the administration of this Plan or the exercise or performance of its duties hereunder, including the costs and expenses of
defending against any claim of liability. 
 Section 16. Merger or Consolidation or Change of Name of Rights Agent.
(a) Any corporation into or with which the Rights Agent or any successor Rights Agent may be merged, consolidated or combined, any corporation resulting from any merger, consolidation or combination to which the Rights Agent or any successor
Rights Agent shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to the corporate trust or stock transfer business of the Rights Agent or any successor Rights Agent, shall be the successor to the Rights Agent under this Plan without the execution or
filing of any paper or any further act on the part of 

  
 15 








 
any party hereto; provided that such corporation would be eligible for appointment as a successor Rights Agent under the provisions of Section 18. If at the time such successor Rights
Agent succeeds to the agency created by this Plan any of the Right Certificates have been countersigned but not delivered, any such successor Rights Agent may adopt the countersignature of a predecessor Rights Agent and deliver such Right
Certificates so countersigned; and if at that time any of the Right Certificates have not been countersigned, any successor Rights Agent may countersign such Right Certificates either in the name of the predecessor Rights Agent or in the name of the
successor Rights Agent; and in all such cases such Right Certificates shall have the full force provided in the Right Certificates and in this Plan. 
 (b) If at any time the name of the Rights Agent shall be changed and at such time any of the Right Certificates have been countersigned but not delivered, the Rights Agent may adopt the countersignature
under its prior name and deliver Right Certificates so countersigned; and if at that time any of the Right Certificates have not been countersigned, the Rights Agent may countersign such Right Certificates either in its prior name or its changed
name; and in all such cases such Right Certificates shall have the full force provided in the Right Certificates and in this Plan. 
 Section 17. Duties of the Rights Agent. The Rights Agent undertakes the duties and obligations imposed by this Plan upon the following terms and conditions, by all of which the Company and the
holders of Right Certificates, by their acceptance thereof, shall be bound: 
 (a) The Rights Agent may consult with legal
counsel (who may be legal counsel for the Company), and the opinion of such counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection to the Rights Agent as to any action taken or omitted by it in good faith and in accordance with such
opinion. 
 (b) Whenever in the performance of its duties under this Plan the Rights Agent deems it necessary that any fact or
matter (including the identity of any “Acquiring Person” and the determination of “current market price”) be proved or established by the Company prior to taking, suffering or omitting to take any action hereunder, such fact or
matter (unless other evidence in respect thereof be herein specifically prescribed) may be deemed to be conclusively proved and established by a certificate signed by the Chief Executive Officer, the President or any Vice President, the Secretary,
any Assistant Secretary, the Treasurer or any Assistant Treasurer of the Company and delivered to the Rights Agent; and such certificate shall be full authorization to the Rights Agent for any action taken, suffered or omitted in good faith by it
under the provisions of this Plan in reliance upon such certificate. 
 (c) The Rights Agent shall be liable hereunder only for
its own negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct. 
 (d) The Rights Agent shall not be liable for or by reason of any of the
statements of fact or recitals contained in this Plan or in the Right Certificates (except its countersignature thereof) or be required to verify the same, but all such statements and recitals are and shall be deemed to have been made by the Company
only. 
 (e) The Rights Agent shall not be responsible (i) in respect of the validity of this Plan or the execution and
delivery hereof (except the due execution hereof by the Rights Agent) or in respect of the validity or execution of any Right Certificate (except its countersignature thereof), (ii) for any breach by the Company of any covenant or condition
contained in this Plan or in any Right Certificate, (iii) for any change in the exercisability of the Rights (including the Rights becoming void pursuant to Section 6(e)) or (iv) any adjustment in the terms of the Rights (including
the manner, method or amount thereof) provided herein or the ascertaining of the existence of facts that would require any such adjustment (except with respect to the exercise of Rights evidenced by Right Certificates after actual notice of any such
adjustment). The Rights Agent shall not by any act hereunder be deemed to make any representation or warranty as to the authorization or reservation of any shares of Preferred Stock or other securities to be issued pursuant to this Plan or any Right
Certificate or as to whether any shares of Preferred Stock or other securities will, when issued, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. 

  
 16 








 (f) The Company agrees that it will perform, execute, acknowledge and deliver, or cause to
be performed, executed, acknowledged and delivered, all such acts, instruments and assurances as may reasonably be required by the Rights Agent for the carrying out or performing by the Rights Agent of the provisions of this Plan. 

(g) The Rights Agent is hereby authorized and directed to accept instructions with respect to the performance of its duties hereunder
from the Chief Executive Officer, the President, any Vice President, the Secretary, any Assistant Secretary, the Treasurer or any Assistant Treasurer of the Company, and to apply to such officers for advice or instructions in connection with its
duties, and it shall not be liable for any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with instructions of any such officer. 
 (h) The Rights Agent and any stockholder, director, officer or employee of the Rights Agent may buy, sell or deal in any of the Rights or other securities of the Company or become pecuniarily interested
in any transaction in which the Company may be interested, or contract with or lend money to the Company or otherwise act as fully and freely as though it were not the Rights Agent under this Plan. Nothing herein shall preclude the Rights Agent from
acting in any other capacity for the Company or for any other Person. 
 (i) The Rights Agent may execute and exercise any of
the rights or powers hereby vested in it or perform any duty hereunder either itself or by or through its attorneys or agents, and the Rights Agent shall not be answerable or accountable for any act, default, neglect or misconduct of any such
attorneys or agents or for any loss to the Company or to any holders of Rights resulting from any such act, default, neglect or misconduct; provided that reasonable care was exercised in the selection and continued employment thereof.

 (j) No provision of this Plan shall require the Rights Agent to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial
liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of its rights if there shall be reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnification against such risk or liability is not reasonably
assured to it. 
 (k) If, with respect to any Right Certificate surrendered to the Rights Agent for exercise or transfer, the
certificate attached to the form of assignment or form of election to purchase, as the cases may be, has either not been completed or indicates an affirmative response to clause 1 or 2 thereof, the Rights Agent shall not take any further action with
respect to such requested exercise or transfer without first consulting with the Company. 
 (l) The Rights Agent shall be
protected and shall incur no liability for or in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it in connection with the administration of this Plan or the exercise or performance of its duties hereunder in reliance upon any Right Certificate
or certificate for Common Stock or for other securities of the Company, instrument of assignment or transfer, power of attorney, endorsement, affidavit, letter, notice, instruction, direction, consent, certificate, statement or other paper or
document reasonably believed by it to be genuine and to be signed, executed and, where necessary, verified or acknowledged, by the proper Person or Persons. 
 Section 18. Change of Rights Agent. The Rights Agent or any successor Rights Agent may resign and be discharged from its duties under this Plan upon 30 days’ notice to the Company and to
each transfer agent of the Common Stock and Preferred Stock. In the event the transfer agency relationship in effect between the Company and the Rights Agent terminates, the Rights Agent will be deemed to have resigned automatically and be
discharged from its duties under this Agreement as of the effective date of 

  
 17 








 
such termination, and the Company shall be responsible for sending any required notice. The Company may remove the Rights Agent or any successor Rights Agent upon 30 days’ notice to the
Rights Agent or successor Rights Agent, as the case may be, and to each transfer agent of the Common Stock and Preferred Stock by registered or certified mail, and, after a Distribution Date, to the holders of the Right Certificates. If the Rights
Agent resigns or is removed or otherwise becomes incapable of acting, the Company shall appoint a successor to the Rights Agent. If the Company fails to make such appointment within a period of 30 days after giving notice of such removal or after it
has been notified in writing of such resignation or incapacity by the resigning or incapacitated Rights Agent or by the holder of a Right Certificate (who shall, with such notice, submit his Right Certificate for inspection by the Company), then the
registered holder of any Right Certificate may apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a new Rights Agent. Any successor Rights Agent, whether appointed by the Company or by such a court, shall be (a) a corporation
organized, in good standing and doing business under the laws of the United States or of any state of the United States, authorized under such laws to exercise stock transfer or corporate trust powers and is subject to supervision or examination by
federal or state authority and which has at the time of its appointment as Rights Agent a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 or (b) an affiliate of a corporation described in Section 18(a). After appointment, the
successor Rights Agent shall be vested with the same powers, rights, duties and responsibilities as if it had been originally named as Rights Agent without further act or deed; but the predecessor Rights Agent shall deliver and transfer to the
successor Rights Agent any property at the time held by it hereunder, and execute and deliver any further assurance, conveyance, act or deed necessary for the purpose. Not later than the effective date of any such appointment, the Company shall file
notice thereof with the predecessor Rights Agent and each transfer agent of the Common Stock and the Preferred Stock, and, subsequent to a Distribution Date, mail a notice thereof to the registered holders of the Right Certificates. Failure to give
any notice provided for in this Section 18, or any defect therein, shall not affect the legality or validity of the resignation or removal of the Rights Agent or the appointment of the successor Rights Agent, as the case may be. 

Section 19. Redemption. (a) At any time prior to a Distribution Date, the Board may, at its option, redeem all but not
less than all of the then outstanding Rights at a redemption price of $0.00001 per Right, as such amount may be appropriately adjusted pursuant to Section 9(a)(i) (such redemption price being hereinafter referred to as the “Redemption
Price”). The redemption of the Rights may be made effective at such time, on such basis and with such conditions as the Board in its sole discretion may establish. The Redemption Price shall be payable, at the option of the Company, in
cash, shares of Common Stock, or such other form of consideration as the Board shall determine. 
 (b) Immediately upon the
action of the Board electing to redeem the Rights (or at such later time as the Board may establish for the effectiveness of such redemption) and without any further action and without any notice, the right to exercise the Rights will terminate and
thereafter the only right of the holders of Rights shall be to receive the Redemption Price for each Right so held. The Company shall promptly thereafter give notice of such redemption to the Rights Agent and the holders of the Rights in the manner
set forth in Section 22; provided that the failure to give, or any defect in, such notice shall not affect the validity of such redemption. Any notice which is mailed in the manner herein provided shall be deemed given, whether or not the
holder receives the notice. Each such notice of redemption will state the method by which the payment of the Redemption Price will be made. 
 Section 20. Exchange. (a) At any time on or after a Stock Acquisition Date, with respect to all or any part of the then outstanding and exercisable Rights (which shall not include Rights
that have become void pursuant to Section 6(e)), the Board may, at its option, exchange for each Right one share of Common Stock, subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 9(a)(i) (such exchange ratio being hereinafter referred to as the
“Exchange Ratio”). The exchange of the Rights by the Board may be made effective at such time, on such basis and with such conditions as the Board in its sole discretion may establish. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board shall
not be empowered to effect such exchange at any time after an Acquiring Person becomes the Beneficial Owner of 50% or more of the shares of Common Stock then outstanding. 

  
 18 








 (b) Immediately upon the effectiveness of the action of the Board to exchange any Rights
pursuant to Section 20(a) (or at such later time as the Board may establish) and without any further action and without any notice, the right to exercise such Rights will terminate and thereafter the only right of a holder of such Rights shall
be to receive that number of fractional shares of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of such Rights held by such holder multiplied by the Exchange Ratio. The Company shall promptly thereafter give notice of such exchange to the Rights Agent
and the holders of the Rights to be exchanged in the manner set forth in Section 22; provided that the failure to give, or any defect in, such notice shall not affect the validity of such exchange. Any notice which is mailed in the
manner herein provided shall be deemed given, whether or not the holder receives the notice. Each such notice of exchange will state the method by which the exchange of Rights for shares of Common Stock will be effected and, in the event of any
partial exchange, the number of Rights which will be exchanged. Any partial exchange shall be effected pro rata based on the number of Rights (other than Rights which have become void pursuant to Section 6(e)) held by each holder of Rights.

 (c) In lieu of exchanging all or any part of the then outstanding and exercisable Rights for shares of Common Stock in
accordance with Section 20(a), the Board may, at its option, substitute, for each share of Common Stock that would otherwise be issuable upon exchange of a Right, a number of shares of Preferred Stock or fraction thereof such that the current
market price of one share of Preferred Stock multiplied by such number or fraction is equal to the current market price of one share of Common Stock as of the date of issuance of such shares of Preferred Stock or fraction thereof. 

(d) Prior to effecting an exchange pursuant to this Section 20, the Board may direct the Company to enter into a Trust Agreement in
such form and with such terms as the Board of Directors shall then approve (the “Trust Agreement”). If the Board so directs, the Company shall enter into the Trust Agreement and shall issue to the trust created by such agreement
(the “Trust”) all of the fractional shares of Preferred Stock, or shares of Common Stock or other securities, if any, issuable pursuant to the exchange, and all Persons entitled to receive shares or other securities pursuant to the
exchange shall be entitled to receive such shares or other securities (and any dividends or distributions made thereon after the date on which such shares or other securities are deposited in the Trust) only from the Trust and solely upon compliance
with the relevant terms and provisions of the Trust Agreement. 
 Section 21. Notice of Proposed Actions and Certain
Other Matters. (a) If the Company proposes, at any time after a Distribution Date, (i) to pay any dividend payable in stock of any class or to make any other distribution (other than a regular quarterly cash dividend out of earnings or
retained earnings of the Company) to the holders of Preferred Stock, (ii) to offer to the holders of its Preferred Stock rights or warrants to subscribe for or to purchase any additional shares of Preferred Stock or shares of stock of any class
or any other securities, rights or options, (iii) to effect any reclassification of its Preferred Stock (other than a reclassification involving only the subdivision or combination of outstanding shares of Preferred Stock), (iv) to effect,
or permit any of its Subsidiaries to effect, any consolidation, merger or combination with any other unaffiliated Person, or to effect any sale or other transfer, in one transaction or a series of related transactions, of assets or earning power
aggregating more than 50% of the assets or earning power of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, (v) to effect the liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company or (vi) to declare or pay any dividend on the Common
Stock payable in Common Stock or to effect a subdivision, combination or consolidation of the Common Stock (by reclassification or otherwise than by payment of dividends in Common Stock), then, in each such case, the Company shall give to each
holder of a Right, a notice of such proposed action specifying the record date for the purposes of any such dividend, distribution or offering of rights or warrants, or the date on which any such reclassification, consolidation, merger, combination,
sale, transfer, liquidation, dissolution or winding-up is to take place and the date of participation therein by the 

  
 19 








 
holders of Preferred Stock or Common Stock, if any such date is to be fixed, and such notice shall be so given in the case of any action covered by Section 21(a)(i) or 21(a)(ii) above at
least 20 days prior to the record date for determining holders of the Preferred Stock entitled to participate in such dividend, distribution or offering, and in the case of any such other action, at least 20 days prior to the date of the taking of
such proposed action or the date of participation therein by the holders of Preferred Stock, whichever shall be earlier. The failure to give notice required by this Section or any defect therein shall not affect the legality or validity of the
action taken by the Company or the vote upon any such action. 
 (b)(i) The Company shall as soon as practicable after a
Stock Acquisition Date give to each holder of a Right, in accordance with Section 22, a notice of the occurrence of such event, which shall specify the event and the consequences of the event to holders of Rights under Section 9(a)(ii),
and (ii) all references in Section 21 to Preferred Stock shall be deemed thereafter to refer to Common Stock or other capital stock, as the case may be. 
 Section 22. Notices. Except as set forth below, all notices, requests and other communications to any party hereunder and to the holder of any Right shall be in writing unless otherwise
expressly specified herein. Notices or demands authorized by this Plan to be given or made to or on the Company or (subject to Section 18) the Rights Agent shall be sufficiently given or made if sent by overnight delivery service or registered

 EXHIBIT A 
 FORM OF 
 CERTIFICATE OF DESIGNATIONS 

OF 

SERIES A PARTICIPATING PREFERRED STOCK 
 OF THE PMI GROUP, INC. 
 The PMI Group, Inc., a corporation organized and
existing under the laws of the State of Delaware (the “Corporation”), in accordance with the provisions of Section 151 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware thereof, does hereby certify: 

The board of directors of the Corporation (the “Board of Directors”) or a duly authorized committee of the Board of
Directors, in accordance with the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Corporation and applicable law, adopted the following resolution on August 12, 2010, creating a series of preferred stock of the Corporation from its blank check
preferred stock authority designated as “Series A Preferred Stock”. 
 RESOLVED, that pursuant to the
provisions of the certificate of incorporation and the bylaws of the Corporation and applicable law, a series of preferred stock, created from its blank check preferred stock authority, par value $0.01 per share, of the Corporation be and hereby is
created, and that the designation and number of shares of such series, and the voting and other powers, preferences and relative, participating, optional or other rights, and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof, of the shares of
such series, are as follows: 
 Section 1. Designation and Number of Shares. The shares of such series shall be
designated as “Series A Participating Preferred Stock” (the “Series A Preferred Stock”), and the number of shares constituting such series shall be 14,000. Such number of shares of the Series A Preferred Stock may be
increased or decreased by resolution of the Board of Directors; provided that no decrease shall reduce the number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock to a number less than the number of shares then outstanding plus the number of shares
issuable upon exercise or conversion of outstanding rights, options or other securities issued by the Corporation. 

Section 2. Dividends and Distributions. (a) Subject to the prior and superior rights of the holders of any shares of any
class or series of stock of the Corporation ranking prior and superior to the shares of Series A Preferred Stock with respect to dividends, the holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, when, as and if declared by
the Board of Directors out of funds legally available for the purpose, regular quarterly dividends payable on such dates each year as designated by the Board of Directors (each such date being referred to herein as a “Quarterly Dividend
Payment Date”), commencing on the first Quarterly Dividend Payment Date after the first issuance of any share or fraction of a share of Series A Preferred Stock, in an amount per share (rounded to the nearest cent) equal to the Multiplier
Number times the aggregate per share amount of all cash dividends or other distributions and the Multiplier Number times the aggregate per share amount of all non-cash dividends or other distributions (other than (i) a dividend payable in
shares of Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Corporation (the “Common Stock”) or (ii) a subdivision of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (by reclassification or otherwise)), declared on the Common Stock since
the immediately preceding Quarterly Dividend Payment Date, or, with respect to the first Quarterly Dividend Payment Date, since the first issuance of any share or fraction of a share of Series A Preferred Stock. As used herein, the
“Multiplier Number” shall be 1,000,000; provided that if, at any time after August 12, 2010, there shall be any change in the Common Stock, whether by reason of stock dividends, stock splits, reverse stock splits,
recapitalization, mergers, consolidations, combinations or exchanges of securities, split-ups, split-offs, spin- offs, liquidations or other similar changes in capitalization, or any distribution or issuance of


  
 A-1








 
shares of its capital stock in a merger, share exchange, reclassification, or change of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, then in each such event the Board of Directors shall adjust the
Multiplier Number to the extent appropriate such that following such adjustment each share of Series A Preferred Stock shall be in the same economic position as prior to such event. 

(b) The Corporation shall declare a dividend or distribution on the Series A Preferred Stock as provided in Section 2(a) immediately
after it declares a dividend or distribution on the Common Stock (other than as described in Sections 2(a)(i) and 2(a)(ii)). 
 (c) Dividends, to the extent payable as provided in Sections 2(a) and (b), shall begin to accrue and be cumulative on outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock from the Quarterly Dividend
Payment Date immediately preceding the date of issuance of such shares of Series A Preferred Stock, unless the date of issuance of such shares is on or before the record date for the first Quarterly Dividend Payment Date, in which case dividends on
such shares shall begin to accrue and be cumulative from the date of issue of such shares, or unless the date of issue is a date after the record date for the determination of holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock entitled to receive a
quarterly dividend and on or before such Quarterly Dividend Payment Date, in which case dividends shall begin to accrue and be cumulative from such Quarterly Dividend Payment Date. Accrued but unpaid dividends shall not bear interest. Dividends paid
on shares of Series A Preferred Stock in an amount less than the total amount of such dividends at the time accrued and payable on such shares shall be allocated pro rata on a share-by-share basis among all such shares at the time
outstanding. The Board of Directors may fix a record date for the determination of holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock entitled to receive payment of a dividend or distribution declared thereon, which record date shall not be more than 60
days prior to the date fixed for the payment thereof. 
 Section 3. Voting Rights. In addition to any other voting
rights required by law, the holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall have the following voting rights: 
 (a) Each
share of Series A Preferred Stock shall entitle the holder thereof to a number of votes equal to the Multiplier Number on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders of the Corporation. 

(b) Except as otherwise provided herein or by law, the holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock and the holders of shares of Common
Stock shall vote together as a single class on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders of the Corporation. 
 (c) The
certificate of incorporation of the Corporation shall not be amended in any manner (whether by merger or otherwise) so as to adversely affect the powers, preferences or special rights of the Series A Preferred Stock without the affirmative vote of
the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock, voting separately as a class. 
 (d)
Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall have no special voting rights and their consent shall not be required (except to the extent they are entitled to vote with holders of Common Stock as set
forth herein) for taking any corporate action. 
 Section 4. Certain Restrictions. (a) Whenever quarterly
dividends or other dividends or distributions payable on the Series A Preferred Stock as provided in Section 2 are in arrears, thereafter and until all accrued and unpaid dividends and distributions, whether or not declared, on outstanding
shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall have been paid in full, the Corporation shall not: 
 (i) declare or pay dividends on,
or make any other distributions on, any shares of stock ranking junior (either as to dividends or upon liquidation, dissolution or winding-up) to the Series A Preferred Stock; 

  
 A-2








 (ii) declare or pay dividends on, or make any other distributions on, any shares of stock
ranking on a parity (either as to dividends or upon liquidation, dissolution or winding-up) with the Series A Preferred Stock, except dividends paid ratably on the Series A Preferred Stock and all such other parity stock on which dividends are
payable or in arrears in proportion to the total amounts to which the holders of all such shares are then entitled; 
 (iii)
redeem, purchase or otherwise acquire for value any shares of stock ranking junior (either as to dividends or upon liquidation, dissolution or winding-up) to the Series A Preferred Stock; provided that the Corporation may at any time redeem,
purchase or otherwise acquire shares of any such junior stock in exchange for shares of stock of the Corporation ranking junior (as to dividends and upon dissolution, liquidation or winding-up) to the Series A Preferred Stock; or 

(iv) redeem, purchase or otherwise acquire for value any shares of Series A Preferred Stock, or any shares of stock ranking on a parity
(either as to dividends or upon liquidation, dissolution or winding-up) with the Series A Preferred Stock, except in accordance with a purchase offer made in writing or by publication (as determined by the Board of Directors) to all holders of
Series A Preferred Stock and all such other parity stock upon such terms as the Board of Directors, after consideration of the respective annual dividend rates and other relative rights and preferences of the respective series and classes, shall
determine in good faith will result in fair and equitable treatment among the respective series or classes. 
 (b) The
Corporation shall not permit any subsidiary of the Corporation to purchase or otherwise acquire for value any shares of stock of the Corporation unless the Corporation could, under paragraph 4(a), purchase or otherwise acquire such shares at such
time and in such manner. 
 Section 5. Reacquired Shares. Any shares of Series A Preferred Stock purchased or
otherwise acquired by the Corporation in any manner whatsoever shall be retired promptly after the acquisition thereof. All such shares shall upon their retirement become authorized but unissued shares of Preferred Stock without designation as to
series and may be reissued as part of a new series of Preferred Stock to be created by the Board of Directors as permitted by the certificate of incorporation of the Corporation or as otherwise permitted under Delaware law. 

Section 6. Liquidation, Dissolution and Winding-up. Upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Corporation, no
distribution shall be made (a) to the holders of shares of stock ranking junior (either as to dividends or upon liquidation, dissolution or winding-up) to the Series A Preferred Stock unless, prior thereto, the holders of shares of Series A
Preferred Stock shall have received $1.00 per share, plus an amount equal to accrued and unpaid dividends and distributions thereon, whether or not declared, to the date of such payment; provided that the holders of shares of Series A
Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive an aggregate amount per share equal to (x) the Multiplier Number times (y) the aggregate amount to be distributed per share to holders of Common Stock, or (b) to the holders of stock
ranking on a parity (either as to dividends or upon liquidation, dissolution or winding-up) with the Series A Preferred Stock, except distributions made ratably on the Series A Preferred Stock and all such other parity stock in proportion to
the total amounts to which the holders of all such shares are entitled upon such liquidation, dissolution or winding-up. 

Section 7. Consolidation, Merger, etc. If the Corporation shall enter into any consolidation, merger, combination or other
transaction in which the shares of Common Stock are exchanged for or changed into other stock or securities, cash or any other property, then in any such case the shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall at the same time be similarly exchanged for
or changed into an amount per share equal to (x) the Multiplier Number times (y) the aggregate amount of stock, securities, cash or any other property, as the case may be, into which or for which each share of Common Stock is
changed or exchanged. 
 Section 8. No Redemption. The Series A Preferred Stock shall not be redeemable. 


  
 A-3








 Section 9. Rank. The Series A Preferred Stock shall rank junior to all other
series of the Preferred Stock as to the payment of dividends and the distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution and winding-up, unless the terms of such series shall specifically provide otherwise, and shall rank senior to the Common Stock
as to such matters. 
 Section 10. Fractional Shares. Series A Preferred Stock may be issued in fractions of a share
which shall entitle the holder, in proportion to such holder’s fractional shares, to exercise voting rights, receive dividends, participate in distributions and to have the benefit of all other rights of holders of Series A Preferred Stock.

 AS SET FORTH IN THE PLAN, RIGHTS ISSUED OR TRANSFERRED TO, OR 

BENEFICIALLY OWNED BY, ANY PERSON WHO IS, WAS OR BECOMES AN ACQUIRING 

PERSON (AS SUCH TERMS ARE DEFINED IN THE PLAN), WHETHER CURRENTLY 

BENEFICIALLY OWNED BY OR ON BEHALF OF SUCH PERSON OR BY ANY 
 SUBSEQUENT HOLDER, MAY BE NULL AND VOID. 
 SUMMARY OF TERMS

 THE PMI GROUP, INC. 
 AMENDED AND RESTATED TAX BENEFITS PRESERVATION PLAN 
  

			
	Purpose	  	The purpose of the Amended and Restated Tax Benefits Preservation Plan (“Plan”) described in this summary of terms is to help preserve the value of the deferred
tax assets (“Tax Benefits”) of The PMI Group, Inc. (the “Company”) for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
		
	Form of Security	  	The Board of Directors has declared a dividend of one preferred stock purchase right for each outstanding share of the Company’s Common Stock, payable to holders of record
as of the close of business on August 23, 2010 (each a “Right” and collectively, the “Rights”).
		
	Exercise	  	 Prior to a Distribution Date1, the Rights are not exercisable.
 After a Distribution Date, each Right is exercisable to purchase, for $15.00 (the “Purchase Price”), one one-millionth of a share of Series A Participating Preferred Stock, $0.01 par
value per share, of the Company (“Preferred Stock”).

		
	Flip-In	  	If any person or group (an “Acquiring Person”) becomes a “5-percent shareholder” (subject to certain exceptions described in the Plan), then on a
Distribution Date, each Right (other than Rights beneficially owned by any Acquiring Person) will entitle the holder to purchase, for the Purchase Price, a number of shares of Common Stock of the Company or in lieu thereof, in certain circumstances,
Preferred Stock with an equivalent current market price) equal to the quotient of (x) two times the Purchase Price divided by (y) the then-current market price of the Company’s Common Stock; provided that (i) none of the Company and its
subsidiaries, their employee benefit plans and compensation arrangements and entities and trustees holding securities for such employee, benefit plans and compensation arrangements shall be an Acquiring Person, (ii) none of certain existing
“5-percent shareholders” (including certain persons who are “5-percent shareholders” following specified exchange offers with the Company) shall be an Acquiring Person unless and until any such “5-percent shareholder”
acquires more than a specified number of additional shares of the Company’s securities, (iii) none of certain other “grandfathered persons” (as described in the Plan) shall be an


 
  

	1	 Distribution Date means the earlier of: 



	 	•	 	 the close of business on the 10th business day after public announcement that any person or group has become an Acquiring Person (the “Stock
Acquisition Date”; and 


  

	 	•	 	 the close of business on the 10th business day after the date of the commencement of a tender or exchange offer by any person which would or could, if
consummated, result in such person becoming an Acquiring Person, subject to extension by the Board of Directors of the Company prior to a Stock Acquisition Date. 



  
 B-1









					
	 	    	Acquiring Person so long as any such “grandfathered person” satisfies the applicable requirements set forth in the
Plan, (iv) no person or group who
or which the Board of Directors determines, in its sole discretion, has
inadvertently become a “5-percent shareholder” (or inadvertently failed to continue to qualify as a “grandfathered
person”) shall be an Acquiring
Person so long as such Person promptly enters into, and delivers to the Company, an
irrevocable commitment promptly to divest, and thereafter promptly divests (without exercising or retaining any
power, including voting, with respect to such
securities), sufficient securities of the Company so that such person’s
(or such group’s) percentage stock ownership in the Company is less than 5 percent (or, in the case of any person or
group that has inadvertently failed to
qualify as a “grandfathered person,” the securities of the Company that caused
such person or group to fail to qualify as a “grandfathered person”), (v) no person or group that has become a
“5-percent shareholder”
shall be an Acquiring Person if the Board of Directors in good faith determines that such
person’s or group’s attainment of “5-percent shareholder” status has not jeopardized or endangered the Company’s
utilization of
the Tax Benefits or is otherwise in the best interests of the Company so long as each such person or
group does not acquire any additional shares of the Company’s securities; provided that such a person or group shall
be an
“Acquiring Person” if the Board of Directors makes a contrary determination in good faith, and (vi) beneficial
ownership under certain U.S. tax rules by a person or group of at least a majority of the Company’s Common
Stock
following consummation of a “qualified offer” (as defined in the Plan) made by that person or group shall not result
in any person or group becoming an Acquiring Person.
		
	Exchange	    	At any time after a Stock Acquisition Date (but before an Acquiring Person becomes the beneficial owner under certain U.S. tax rules of 50% or more of the
Company’s Common Stock), the Board of Directors may elect to exchange all or part of the Rights (other than the Rights beneficially owned under certain U.S. tax rules by an Acquiring Person) for shares of Common Stock at an exchange ratio of
one share of Common Stock (or, at the option of the Board of Directors, fractional shares of Preferred Stock with an aggregate current market price that equals the current market price of one share of the Company’s Common Stock) per Right,
subject to adjustment.
		
	Redemption	    	The Board of Directors may, at its option, redeem all, but not less than all, of the then outstanding Rights at a redemption price of $0.00001 per Right at any time
prior to a Distribution Date.
		
	Expiration	    	The Rights will expire on the earliest of (i) the close of business on February 16, 2014, subject to extension, (ii) the time at which all Rights are redeemed or
exchanged, (iii) the first day of a taxable year of the Company as to which the Board of Directors determines that no Tax Benefits may be carried forward, (iv) a date prior to a Stock Acquisition Date on which the Board of Directors determines that
the Rights and the Plan are no longer necessary for the preservation or existence of the Tax Benefits or are no longer in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders, (v) the repeal or amendment of Section 382 or any successor statute, if
the Board of Directors determines


  
 B-2









					
		    	that the Plan is no longer necessary for the preservation of Tax Benefits, (vi) such time as the Board of Directors determines that a limitation on the use of the Tax
Benefits under Section 382 would no longer be material to the Company, which the Board of Directors has agreed to review annually, and (vii) August 11, 2011, if stockholder approval of this Plan has not been received before such
time.
		
	Amendments	    	 At any time on or prior to a Distribution Date, the Company may, and the Rights Agent shall if the Company so directs,
supplement or amend any provision of the Plan without the approval of any holders of Rights.
  
 After a Distribution Date, the Company may, and the Rights Agent shall if the Company so directs, supplement or amend the Plan without the approval of any holders of Rights; provided, however, that
no such supplement or amendment may (a) adversely affect the interests of the holders of Rights as such (other than an Acquiring Person), (b) cause the Plan again to become amendable other than in accordance with this sentence or (c) cause the
Rights again to become redeemable.

		
	Shareholder Rights	    	Until a Right is exercised or exchanged, Rights holders, in their capacity as such, have no rights as a shareholder of the Company, including the right to vote and to
receive dividends.
		
	Antidilution Provisions	    	The Plan includes antidilution provisions designed to prevent efforts to diminish the efficacy of the Rights.

 RIGHT CERTIFICATE 
 THE PMI GROUP, INC. 
 This Right Certificate certifies that
                            , or registered assigns, is the registered holder of the number of
Rights set forth above, each of which entitles the holder (upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Amended and Restated Tax Benefits Preservation Plan dated as of February 17, 2011 (the “Plan”) between The
PMI Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC (the “Rights Agent”)) to purchase from the Company, at any time after a Distribution Date and prior
to the Expiration Date, one-millionth of a fully paid, nonassessable share of Series A Participating Preferred Stock (the “Preferred Stock”) of the Company at a purchase price of $15.00 per one one-millionth of a share (the
“Purchase Price”), payable in lawful money of the United States of America, upon surrender of this Right Certificate, with the form of election to purchase and related certificate duly executed, and payment of the Purchase Price at
an office of the Rights Agent designated for such purpose. 
 Terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings given
to them in the Plan. 
 The number of Rights evidenced by this Right Certificate (and the number and kind of shares issuable upon exercise of
each Right) and the Purchase Price set forth above are as of August 12, 2010, and may have been or in the future be adjusted as a result of the occurrence of certain events, as more fully provided in the Plan. 

If the Rights evidenced by this Right Certificate are Beneficially Owned by an Acquiring Person after an Acquiring Person has become such, such Rights
shall become null and void without any further action, and no holder hereof shall have any rights whatsoever with respect to such Rights. If the Rights evidenced by this Right Certificate are beneficially owned by (a) a transferee of Rights
Beneficially Owned by such Acquiring Person who (i) becomes a transferee after a Stock Acquisition Date or (ii) becomes a transferee prior to or concurrently with a Stock Acquisition Date and receives such Rights (A) with actual
knowledge that the transferor is or was an Acquiring Person or (B) pursuant to either (I) a transfer (whether or not for consideration) from the Acquiring Person to holders of equity interests in such Acquiring Person or to any Person with
whom the Acquiring Person has any continuing agreement, arrangement or understanding regarding the transferred Rights or (II) a transfer which is part of a plan, arrangement or understanding which has as a primary purpose or effect the avoidance of
these transfer restrictions, such Rights shall become null and void without any further action, and no holder hereof shall have any rights whatsoever with respect to such Rights. 
 This Right Certificate is subject to all of the terms, provisions and conditions of the Plan, which terms, provisions and conditions are hereby incorporated herein by reference and made a part hereof and
to which Plan reference is hereby made for a full description of the rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities hereunder of the Rights Agent, the Company and the holders of the Right Certificates, which limitations of rights
include the temporary suspension of the exercisability of such Rights under the specific circumstances set forth in the Plan. 

  
 C-1








 At any time after a Distribution Date and prior to the Expiration Date, any Right Certificate or
Certificates may, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth below in the Plan, be transferred or exchanged for another Right Certificate or Certificates evidencing a like number of Rights as the Right Certificate or Certificates
surrendered. Any registered holder desiring to transfer or exchange any Right Certificate or Certificates shall surrender such Right Certificate or Certificates (with, in the case of a transfer, the form of assignment and certificate on the reverse
side thereof duly executed) to the Rights Agent at the principal office or offices of the Rights Agent designated for such purpose. 
 Subject
to the provisions of the Plan, the Board of Directors of the Company may, at its option, 
 (a) at any time on or prior to a Distribution Date
redeem all but not less than all of the then outstanding Rights at a redemption price of $0.00001 per Right, as may be adjusted pursuant to the Plan; or 
 (b) at any time after a Distribution Date exchange all or part of the then outstanding Rights (which shall not include Rights that have become void pursuant to Section 6(e)) for shares of Common
Stock at an exchange ratio of one share of Common Stock (or, at the option of the Board, fractional shares of Preferred Stock with an aggregate current market price that equals the current market price of one share of Common Stock) per Right, as may
be adjusted pursuant to the Plan. If the Rights shall be exchanged in part, the holder of this Right Certificate shall be entitled to receive upon surrender hereof another Right Certificate or Certificates for the number of whole Rights not
exchanged. 
 The Company shall not be required to issue fractions of shares of Preferred Stock (other than fractions which are multiples of one
one-millionth of a share of Preferred Stock) upon the exercise of the Rights or to distribute certificates which evidence fractional shares of Preferred Stock (other than fractions which are multiples of one one-millionth of a share of Preferred
Stock which may, at the election of the Company, be evidenced by depositary receipts). In lieu of any such fractional shares of Preferred Stock, the Company shall pay to the registered holders of Right Certificates at the time such Rights are
exercised an amount in cash equal to the same fraction of the current market price of one one-millionth of a share of Preferred Stock. If this Right Certificate shall be exercised in part, the holder shall be entitled to receive upon surrender
hereof another Right Certificate or Certificates for the number of whole Rights not exercised. 
 No holder of this Right Certificate shall be
entitled to vote, receive dividends or be deemed for any purpose the holder of the shares of capital stock which may at any time be issuable on the exercise hereof, nor shall anything contained in the Plan or herein be construed to confer upon the
holder hereof, as such, any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company (including any right to vote for the election of directors or upon any matter submitted to stockholders at any meeting thereof, or to give or withhold consent to any corporate
action, to receive notice of meetings or other actions affecting stockholders (except as provided in the Plan), to receive dividends or subscription rights, or otherwise) until the Right or Rights evidenced by this Right Certificate shall have been
exercised as provided in the Plan. 
 This Right Certificate shall not be valid or obligatory for any purpose until it shall have been
countersigned by the Rights Agent.
