| **Item 1.01.** | **Entry into Material Definitive Agreement.**  |

---

On February 28, 2023, Getty Realty Corp. (the "**Company**") entered into an Underwriting Agreement (the "**Underwriting Agreement**") with each of BofA Securities, Inc. and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, as the underwriters and the forward sellers (together, in such capacities, the "**Underwriters**" and the "**Forward Sellers***,*" as applicable) and each of Bank of America, N.A. and JPMorgan Chase Bank, National Association, as the forward purchasers (together, in such capacity, the "**Forward Purchasers**"), relating to the sale of 3,450,000 shares (the "**Shares**") of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company (the "**Common Stock**") offered by the Forward Sellers in connection with certain forward sale agreements described below (including 450,000 Shares offered pursuant to the Underwriters' option to purchase additional shares, which option was exercised in full), at a price to the Underwriters of $32.61 per share. The closing of the offering occurred on March 3, 2023.

In connection with the offering, the Company entered into separate forward sale agreements (the "**Forward Sale Agreements**") with each Forward Purchaser. In accordance with the terms of the Forward Sale Agreements, the Forward Purchasers (or their affiliates) borrowed from third parties and sold to the Underwriters the 3,450,000 Shares that were sold in the offering. Pursuant to the terms of the Forward Sale Agreements, and subject to its right to elect cash or net share settlement, the Company is obligated to issue and deliver, upon physical settlement of the Forward Sale Agreements on one or more dates specified by the Company, the number of shares of Common Stock underlying the Forward Sale Agreements in exchange for a cash payment per share equal to the forward sale price under the Forward Sale Agreements. The Company expects to physically settle the Forward Sale Agreements and receive proceeds, subject to certain adjustments, from the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon one or more such physical settlements within approximately one year from the date of the prospectus supplement relating to the offering. Although the Company expects to settle the Forward Sale Agreements entirely by the physical delivery of shares of Common Stock for cash proceeds, the Company may also elect to cash or net share settle all or a portion of its obligations under the Forward Sale Agreements, in which case, it may receive, or it may owe, cash or shares of Common Stock from or to the Forward Purchasers. The Forward Sale Agreements provide for an initial forward sale price of $32.61 per share, subject to certain adjustments pursuant to the terms of the Forward Sale Agreements. The Forward Sale Agreements are subject to early termination or settlement under certain circumstances.

The Company will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the Shares by the Forward Sellers. The Company intends to use the net proceeds, if any, received upon the settlement of the Forward Sale Agreements to fund property acquisitions (including recently completed acquisitions and acquisitions currently under contract), to repay indebtedness outstanding under the Company's revolving credit facility, for working capital and other general corporate purposes, or a combination of the foregoing.

The Shares offered pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement have been registered on the Company's registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-251977), which became effective upon filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "**SEC**") on January 8, 2021, and a prospectus supplement, dated February 28, 2023. This Current Report on Form 8-K does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any of the Shares.

The foregoing description of the Underwriting Agreement and the Forward Sale Agreements does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Underwriting Agreement and the Forward Sale Agreements, which are attached as Exhibits 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 1.4 and 1.5 hereto and are incorporated by reference herein.

#### Cautionary Statement Concerning Forward-Looking Statements
This report contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the safe harbor from civil liability provided for such statements by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 set forth in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The forward-looking statements include, among other things, statements regarding the expected settlement of the Forward Sale Agreements and the use of proceeds therefrom (if any), and can be identified by the use of words such as "may," "will," "expect," "anticipate," "intend," "estimate" and other comparable terms. These forward-looking statements are based on the Company's current beliefs and assumptions and information currently available to the Company, and are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors and were derived utilizing numerous important assumptions that may cause actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Factors and assumptions involved in the

------

derivation of forward-looking statements, and the failure of such other assumptions to be realized as well as other factors may also cause actual results to differ materially from those projected. Most of these factors are difficult to predict accurately and are generally beyond the Company's control. These factors and assumptions may have an impact on the continued accuracy of any forward-looking statements that the Company makes. You should not place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements, which reflect the Company's view only as of the date hereof. Except for the Company's ongoing obligations to disclose material information under the federal securities laws, the Company undertakes no obligation to release publicly any revisions to any forward-looking statements, to report events or to report the occurrence of unanticipated events, unless required by law.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) In addition, on the basis of the representations and warranties herein contained and subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth, the Forward Sellers (with respect to any Borrowed Option Shares) and the Company (with respect to any Company Top-Up Option Shares), severally and not jointly, hereby grant an option to the several Underwriters, severally and not jointly, to purchase (i) up to the number of Borrowed Option Shares set forth in <u>Schedule 1</u> (in the case of the Forward Sellers) and (ii) up to the total number of Company Top-Up Option Shares (in the case of the Company), in each case at the Purchase Price; <u>provided</u> that, with respect to such Option Shares, the Purchase Price shall be reduced by an amount per share equal to any dividends or distributions declared by the Company and payable on the Company Top-Up Underwritten Shares but not payable on such Option Shares.

Upon such execution by the Company and the Forward Purchasers, based upon the warranties and representations and subject to the terms and conditions herein contained, the Forward Sellers (or, in the case of any Company Top-Up Option Shares, the Company) hereby agree to sell to the several Underwriters such number of Borrowed Option Shares at the Purchase Price.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) The number of Option Shares to be purchased by each Underwriter shall be the number of Option Shares which bears the same ratio to the aggregate number of Option Shares being purchased as the number of Underwritten Shares set forth opposite the name of such Underwriter in <u>Schedule 1</u> hereto (or such number increased as set forth in <u>Section</u> <u>11</u> hereof) bears to the aggregate number of Underwritten Shares purchased from the Forward Sellers (or the Company) by the several Underwriters, subject, however, to such adjustments to eliminate any fractional shares as the Underwriters in their sole discretion shall make.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) If (i) any of the representations and warranties of the Company contained in Section 3A hereof or any certificate delivered by the Company pursuant hereto are not true and correct as of the Closing Date or such Additional Closing Date, as the case may be, as if made as of the Closing Date or such Additional Closing Date, as the case may be; (ii) the Company has not performed all of the obligations required to be performed by it under this Agreement on or prior to the Closing Date or such Additional Closing Date, as the case may be; (iii) any of the conditions set forth in <u>Section</u> <u>6</u> hereof have not been satisfied on or prior to the Closing Date or such Additional Closing Date, as the case may be; (iv) this Agreement shall have been terminated pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>10</u> hereof on or prior to the Closing Date or such Additional Closing Date, as the case may be, or the Closing Date or such Additional Closing Date, as the case may be, shall not have occurred; (v) any of the conditions set forth in Paragraph 3 of the Forward Sale Agreements shall not have been satisfied on the terms set forth in the Forward Sale Agreements on or prior to the Closing Date or such Additional Closing Date, as the case may be; or (vi)

In addition, in the event the Forward Sellers (or their affiliates) (x) are unable, after using commercially reasonable efforts, to borrow and deliver for sale the full number of Borrowed Shares to be borrowed and sold hereunder as of the Closing Date or such Additional Closing Date, as the case may be, or (y) would incur a stock loan cost of more than a rate equal to 25 basis points per annum to do so with respect to all or any portion of such full number of Borrowed Shares, then, in each case, the Forward Sellers shall only be required to deliver for sale to the Underwriters on the Closing Date or such Additional Closing Date, as the case may be, the aggregate number of Shares that such Forward Sellers (or their affiliates) are able to so borrow and deliver.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) If the Forward Sellers elect, pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>2(c)</u> hereof, not to borrow and deliver for sale to the Underwriters on the Closing Date or such Additional Closing Date, as the case may be, the total number of Borrowed Shares to be sold hereunder, the Forward Sellers will use their commercially reasonable efforts to notify the Company no later than 8:30 A.M.

(New York City time), on the Additional Closing Date, or such other time not later than seven business days after such date as shall be agreed upon by the Underwriters, the Forward Sellers or the Company, as applicable, or as provided in <u>Section</u> <u>11</u> hereof or as otherwise agreed to by the relevant parties.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7. <u>Indemnification and Contribution</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) *Indemnification of the Underwriters, the Forward Purchasers and the Forward Sellers*. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter, each Forward Purchaser and each Forward Seller, its affiliates, directors and, officers and each person, if any, who controls such Underwriter, such Forward Purchaser or such Forward Seller within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including, without limitation, reasonable out of pocket legal fees and other expenses incurred in connection with any suit, action or proceeding or any claim asserted, as such fees and expenses are incurred), joint or several, that arise out of, or are based upon, (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement or caused by any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, not misleading, (ii) or any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Preliminary Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto), the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto), any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto), any "issuer information" filed or required to be filed pursuant to Rule 433(d) under the Securities Act, any road show or any Pricing Disclosure Package, or caused by any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, in each case except insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities arise out of, or are based upon, any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with the Underwriter Information.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) *Indemnification of the Company.* Each Underwriter, each Forward Purchaser and each Forward Seller agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its officers and directors who signed the Registration Statement and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act to the same extent as the indemnity set forth in paragraph (a) above, but only with respect to any losses, claims, damages or liabilities that arise out of, or are based upon, any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with the Underwriter Information.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) *Notice and Procedures.* If any suit, action, proceeding (including any governmental or regulatory investigation), claim or demand shall be brought or asserted against any person in respect of which indemnification may be sought pursuant to either paragraph (a) or (b) above, such person (the "**Indemnified Person**") shall promptly notify the person against whom such indemnification may be sought (the "**Indemnifying Person**") in writing; <u>provided</u> that the failure to notify the Indemnifying Person shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have under paragraph (a) or (b) above except to the extent that it has been materially prejudiced (through the forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses) by such failure; and <u>provided</u>, <u>further</u>, that the failure to notify the Indemnifying Person shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have to an Indemnified Person otherwise than under paragraph (a) or (b) above. If any such proceeding shall be brought or asserted against an Indemnified Person and it shall have notified the Indemnifying Person thereof, the Indemnifying Person shall retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person (who shall not, without the consent of the Indemnified Person, be counsel to the Indemnifying Person) to represent the Indemnified Person and any others entitled to indemnification pursuant this <u>Section</u> <u>7</u> that the Indemnifying Person may designate in such proceeding and shall pay the fees and expenses of such counsel related to such proceeding, as incurred. In any such proceeding, any Indemnified Person shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Person unless (i) the Indemnifying Person and the Indemnified Person shall have mutually agreed in writing to the contrary; (ii) the Indemnifying Person has failed within a reasonable time to retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person; (iii) the Indemnified Person shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it that are different from or in addition to those available to the Indemnifying Person; or (iv) the named parties in any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) included both the Indemnifying Person and the Indemnified Person and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. It is understood and agreed that the Indemnifying Person shall not, in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for (A) the Underwriters and their affiliates, directors and, officers and their control persons, if any, or (B) the Company, its directors, its officers who signed the Registration Statement and its control persons, if any, as the case may be, and that all such reasonable fees and expenses shall be paid or reimbursed as they are incurred. Any such separate firm for any Underwriter, any Forward Purchaser, any Forward Seller, its affiliates, directors and, officers and any control persons of such Underwriter, such Forward Purchaser and such Forward Seller shall be designated in writing by the Underwriters and any such separate firm for the Company, its directors, its officers who signed the Registration Statement and any control persons of the Company shall be designated in writing by the Company. The Indemnifying Person shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the Indemnifying Person agrees to indemnify each Indemnified Person from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any time an Indemnified Person shall have requested that an Indemnifying Person reimburse the Indemnified Person for fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated by this paragraph, the Indemnifying Person agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 30 days after receipt by the Indemnifying Person of such request and (ii) the Indemnifying Person shall not have reimbursed the Indemnified Person in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement. No Indemnifying Person shall, without the written consent of the Indemnified Person, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Person is or could have been a party and indemnification could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Person, unless such settlement (x) includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Person, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Person, from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding and (y) does not include any statement as to or any admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any Indemnified Person.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) *Contribution.* If the indemnification provided for in paragraphs (a) and (b) above is unavailable to an Indemnified Person or insufficient in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein, then each Indemnifying Person under such paragraph, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Person thereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Person as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, the Forward Purchasers and the Forward Sellers on the other, from the offering of the Shares or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) but also the relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, the Forward Purchasers and the Forward Sellers on the other, in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, the Forward Purchasers and the Forward Sellers on the other, shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as (x) in the case of the Company, the net proceeds from the Top-Up Shares and the net proceeds, if any, due upon settlement of the Forward Sale Agreements (assuming Physical Settlement (as defined in the Forward Sale Agreements)) (before deducting expenses) received by the Company, (y) in the case of the Underwriters, the difference between (i) the aggregate price to the public received by the Underwriters for the Shares and (ii) the aggregate price paid by the Underwriters for the Shares and (z) in the case of the Forward Sellers and the Forward Purchasers, the Spread (as defined in the Forward Sale Agreements) retained by the Forward Purchasers under the Forward Sale Agreements, net of any costs associated therewith, as reasonably determined by the Forward Purchasers. The relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, the Forward Purchasers and the Forward Sellers on the other, shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company, on the one hand, or by the Underwriters, the Forward Purchasers and the Forward Sellers, on the other hand, and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) *Limitation on Liability.* The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this <u>Section</u> <u>7</u> were determined by <u>pro</u> <u>rata</u> allocation (even if the Underwriters were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in paragraph (d) above. The amount paid or payable by an Indemnified Person as a result of the losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to in paragraph (d) above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses incurred by such Indemnified Person in connection with any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this <u>Section</u> <u>7</u>, in no event shall an Underwriter be required to contribute any amount in excess of the difference between: (i) the aggregate price to the public received by the Underwriters for the Shares; and (ii) the aggregate price paid by the Underwriters for the Shares, with respect to the Shares underwritten by it and distributed to investors, and the Forward Purchasers and the Forward Sellers shall not be required to contribute an amount in excess of the aggregate Spread retained by the Forward Purchasers under the Forward Sale Agreements. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Underwriters' obligations to contribute pursuant to this <u>Section</u> <u>7</u> are several in proportion to their respective purchase obligations hereunder and not joint.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) *Non-Exclusive Remedies.* The remedies provided for in this <u>Section</u> <u>7</u> are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies which may otherwise be available to any Indemnified Person at law or in equity.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8. <u>Effectiveness of Agreement</u>. This Agreement shall become effective upon the execution and delivery hereof by the parties hereto.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9. <u>Issuance and Sale by the Company</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) In the event that (i) all the Conditions are not satisfied on or prior to the Closing Date, and the Forward Sellers elect, pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>2(c)</u>, not to deliver the Borrowed Shares deliverable by the Forward Sellers or (ii) the Forward Sellers (or their affiliates) (x) are unable, after using commercially reasonable efforts, to borrow and deliver for sale the full number of Borrowed Shares to be borrowed and sold hereunder as of the Closing Date or such Additional Closing Date or (y) would incur a stock loan cost of more than a rate equal to 25 basis points per annum to do so with respect to all or any portion of such full number of Borrowed Shares, then, in each case, the Company shall issue and sell to the Underwriters, pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>2</u> hereof, in whole but not in part, an aggregate number of Shares equal to the number of Borrowed Shares that the Forward Sellers do not so deliver and sell to the Underwriters. In connection with any such issuance and sale by the Company, the Company or the Underwriters shall have the right to postpone the Closing Date, or Additional Closing Date, as the case may be, for a period not exceeding one business day in order to effect any required changes in any documents or arrangements. The Shares sold by the Company to the Underwriters pursuant to this <u>Section</u> <u>9(a)</u>: (i) in lieu of Borrowed Underwritten Shares are referred to herein as the "**Company Top-Up Underwritten Shares**" and (ii) in lieu of any Borrowed Option Shares are referred to herein as the "**Company Top-Up Option Shares**."

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) None of the Forward Purchasers and the Forward Sellers shall have any liability whatsoever for any Borrowed Shares that the Forward Sellers do not deliver and sell to the Underwriters or any other party if (i) all of the Conditions are not satisfied on or prior to the Closing Date, or the Additional Closing Date, as the case may be, and the Forward Sellers elect, pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>2(c)</u> hereof, not to deliver and sell to the Underwriters the Borrowed Shares or (ii) the Forward Sellers (or their affiliates) (x) are unable, after using commercially reasonable efforts, to borrow and deliver for sale the full number of Borrowed Shares to be borrowed and sold hereunder as of the Closing Date or such Additional Closing Date or (y) would incur a stock loan cost of more than a rate equal to 25 basis points per annum to do so with respect to all or any portion of such full number of Borrowed Shares.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10. <u>Termination</u>. This Agreement may be terminated in the absolute discretion of the Underwriters, by notice to the Company, the Forward Purchasers and the Forward Sellers, if after the execution and delivery of this Agreement and prior to the Closing Date or, in the case of the Option Shares, prior to the Additional Closing Date (i) trading generally shall have been suspended or materially limited on or by any of the New York Stock Exchange or the Nasdaq Stock Market; (ii) trading of any securities issued or guaranteed by the Company shall have been suspended on any exchange or in any over-the-counter market; (iii) a general moratorium on commercial banking activities shall have been declared by federal or New York State authorities; or (iv) there shall have occurred any outbreak or escalation of hostilities or any change in financial markets or any calamity or crisis, either within or outside the United States, that, in the judgment of the Underwriters, is material and adverse and makes it impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the offering, sale or delivery of the Shares on the Closing Date or the Additional Closing Date, as the case may be, on the terms and in the manner contemplated by this Agreement, the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Prospectus.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11. <u>Defaulting Underwriter</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) If, on the Closing Date or the Additional Closing Date, as the case may be, any Underwriter defaults on its obligation to purchase the Shares that it has agreed to purchase hereunder on such date, the non-defaulting Underwriters may in their discretion arrange for the purchase of such Shares by other persons satisfactory to the Company and the Forward Sellers on the terms contained in this Agreement. If, within 36 hours after any such default by any Underwriter, the non-defaulting Underwriters do not arrange for the purchase of such Shares, then the Company and the Forward Sellers shall be entitled to a further period of 36 hours within which to procure other persons satisfactory to the non-defaulting Underwriters to purchase such Shares on such terms. If other persons become obligated or agree to purchase the Shares of a defaulting Underwriter, either the non-defaulting Underwriters, the Forward Sellers or the Company may postpone the Closing Date or the Additional Closing Date, as the case may be, for up to five full business days in order to effect any changes that in the opinion of counsel for the Company or counsel for the Underwriters, the Forward Purchasers and the Forward Sellers may be necessary in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus or in any other document or arrangement, and the Company agrees to promptly prepare any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement and the Prospectus that effects any such changes. As used in this Agreement, the term "Underwriter" includes, for all purposes of this Agreement unless the context otherwise requires, any person not listed in Schedule 1 hereto that, pursuant to this <u>Section</u> <u>11</u>, purchases Shares that a defaulting Underwriter agreed but failed to purchase.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) If, after giving effect to any arrangements for the purchase of the Shares of a defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters by the non-defaulting Underwriters and the Company and the Forward Sellers as provided in paragraph (a) above, the aggregate number of Shares that remain unpurchased on the Closing Date or the Additional Closing Date, as the case may be, does not exceed one-eleventh of the aggregate number of Shares to be purchased on such date, then the Company and the Forward Sellers shall have the right to require each non-defaulting Underwriter to purchase the number of Shares that such Underwriter agreed to purchase hereunder on such date plus such Underwriter's pro rata share (based on the number of Shares that such Underwriter agreed to purchase on such date) of the Shares of such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters for which such arrangements have not been made.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) If, after giving effect to any arrangements for the purchase of the Shares of a defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters by the non-defaulting Underwriters and the Company and the Forward Sellers as provided in paragraph (a) above, the aggregate number of Shares that remain unpurchased on the Closing Date or the Additional Closing Date, as the case may be, exceeds one-eleventh of the aggregate amount of Shares to be purchased on such date, or if the Company or the Forward Sellers shall not exercise the right described in paragraph (b) above, then this Agreement or, with respect to any Additional Closing Date, the obligation of the Underwriters to purchase Shares on the Additional Closing Date shall terminate without liability on the part of the non-defaulting Underwriters. Any termination of this Agreement pursuant to this <u>Section</u> <u>11</u> shall be without liability on the part of the Company, except that the Company will continue to be liable for the payment of expenses as set forth in <u>Section</u> <u>12</u> hereof and except that the provisions of <u>Section</u> <u>7</u> hereof shall not terminate and shall remain in effect.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Nothing contained herein shall relieve a defaulting Underwriter of any liability it may have to the Company or any non-defaulting Underwriter for damages caused by its default.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12. <u>Payment of Expenses</u>*.*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Whether or not the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are consummated or this Agreement and the Forward Sale Agreements are terminated, the Company will pay or cause to be paid all reasonable and documented costs and expenses incident to the performance of its obligations hereunder and under the Forward Sale Agreements actually incurred, including without limitation, (i) the costs incident to the authorization, issuance, sale, preparation and delivery of the Shares pursuant to this Agreement and the issuance of the additional shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Forward Sale Agreements and any taxes payable in that connection; (ii) the costs incident to the preparation, printing and filing under the Securities Act of the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus, any Issuer Free

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) If (i) this Agreement is terminated pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>10</u>, (ii) the Company for any reason fails to tender the Shares for delivery to the Underwriters or (iii) the Underwriters decline to purchase the Shares for any reason permitted under this Agreement, except that if this Agreement shall be terminated pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>10</u> hereof, the Company shall not then be under any liability to any defaulting Underwriter pursuant to this <u>Section</u> <u>12(b)</u>, the Company agrees to reimburse the Underwriters, the Forward Purchasers and the Forward Sellers for all documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including the reasonable and documented fees and expenses of their counsel) reasonably incurred by the Underwriters, the Forward Purchasers and the Forward Sellers in connection with this Agreement and the offering contemplated hereby.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;13. <u>Persons Entitled to Benefit of Agreement</u>. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and the officers and directors and any controlling persons referred to in <u>Section</u> <u>7</u> hereof. Nothing in this Agreement is intended or shall be construed to give any other person any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this Agreement or any provision contained herein. No purchaser of Shares from any Underwriter shall be deemed to be a successor merely by reason of such purchase.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14. <u>Survival</u>. The respective indemnities, rights of contribution, representations, warranties and agreements of the Company, the Underwriters, the Forward Purchasers and the Forward Sellers contained in this Agreement or made by or on behalf of the Company, the Underwriters, the Forward Purchasers or the Forward Sellers pursuant to this Agreement or any certificate delivered pursuant hereto shall survive the delivery of and payment for the Shares and shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any termination of this Agreement or any investigation made by or on behalf of the Company or the Underwriters, the Forward Purchasers and the Forward Sellers.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;15. <u>Certain Defined Terms</u>.

The undersigned understands that you, as Underwriters, propose to enter into an Underwriting Agreement (the "**Underwriting Agreement**") with Getty Realty Corp., a Maryland corporation (the "**Company**"), the forward purchasers named therein and the forward sellers named therein providing for the public offering (the "**Public Offering**") of shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company (the "**Common Stock**"). Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings set forth in the Underwriting Agreement.

In consideration of the Underwriters' agreement to purchase and make the Public Offering of the Securities, and for other good and valuable consideration receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the undersigned hereby agrees that, without the prior written consent of the Underwriters, the undersigned will not, during the period ending 60 days after the date of the prospectus relating to the Public Offering (the "**Prospectus**"), (1) offer, pledge, lend, announce the intention to sell, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any shares of Common Stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock (including without limitation, Common Stock or such other securities which may be deemed to be beneficially owned by the undersigned in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and securities which may be issued upon exercise of a stock option or warrant) or (2) enter into any swap or other agreement or any transaction that transfers, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the Common Stock or such other securities, whether any such transaction described in clause (1) or (2) above is to be settled by delivery of Common Stock or such other securities, in cash or otherwise or (3) make any demand for or exercise any right with respect to the registration of any shares of Common Stock or any security convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock, in each case other than (A) transfers of shares of Common Stock as a bona fide gift or gifts, and (B) distributions of shares of Common Stock to members or stockholders of the undersigned; <u>provided</u> that in the case of any transfer or distribution pursuant to clause (A) or (B), each donee or distributee shall execute and deliver to the Underwriters a lock-up letter in the form of this paragraph; and <u>provided</u>, <u>further</u>, that in the case of any transfer or distribution pursuant to clause (A) or (B), no filing by any party (donor, donee, transferor or transferee) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or other public announcement shall be required or shall be made voluntarily in connection with such transfer or distribution (other than a filing on a Form 5 made after the expiration of the 60-day period referred to above).

------

In furtherance of the foregoing, the Company, and any duly appointed transfer agent for the registration or transfer of the securities described herein, are hereby authorized to decline to make any transfer of securities if such transfer would constitute a violation or breach of this Letter Agreement.

The undersigned hereby represents and warrants that the undersigned has full power and authority to enter into this Letter Agreement. All authority herein conferred or agreed to be conferred and any obligations of the undersigned shall be binding upon the successors, assigns, heirs or personal representatives of the undersigned.

The undersigned understands that, if the Underwriting Agreement does not become effective, or if the Underwriting Agreement (other than the provisions thereof which survive termination) shall terminate or be terminated prior to payment for and delivery of the Common Stock to be sold thereunder, the undersigned shall be released from, all obligations under this Letter Agreement. The undersigned understands that the Underwriters, the forward purchasers and the forward sellers are entering into the Underwriting Agreement and proceeding with the Public Offering in reliance upon this Letter Agreement.

The undersigned acknowledges and agrees that the Underwriters, the forward purchasers and the forward sellers have not provided any recommendation or investment advice, nor have the Underwriters, the forward purchasers or the forward sellers solicited any action from the undersigned with respect to the Public Offering of the securities and the undersigned has consulted their own legal, accounting, financial, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent deemed appropriate. The undersigned further acknowledges and agrees that, although the Underwriters may be required or choose to provide certain Regulation Best Interest and Form CRS disclosures to you in connection with the Public Offering, the Underwriters, the forward purchasers and the forward sellers are not making a recommendation to you to enter into this Letter Agreement or to participate in the Public Offering, and nothing set forth in such disclosures is intended to suggest that any of the Underwriters, the forward purchasers and the forward sellers are making such a recommendation.

This Letter Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without regard to the conflict of laws principles thereof.

| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Suspension Day: | Any Exchange Business Day on which Party A determines based on the advice of counsel that Cash Settlement or Net Share Settlement may violate applicable securities laws.

| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Securities Act: | The Securities Act of 1933, as amended from time to time. |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Exchange Act: | The Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended from time to time. |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Physical Settlement: | On any Settlement Date in respect of which Physical Settlement applies, Party B shall deliver to Party A through the Clearance System the Settlement Shares for such Settlement Date, and Party A shall deliver to Party B, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by Party B, an amount in cash equal to the Physical Settlement Amount for such Settlement Date, on a delivery versus payment basis. If, on any Settlement Date, the Shares to be delivered by Party B to Party A hereunder upon Physical Settlement are not so delivered (the "Physical Deferred Shares"), and a Forward Price Reduction Date occurs during the period from, and including, such Settlement Date to, but excluding, the date such Shares are actually delivered to Party A, then the portion of the Physical Settlement Amount payable by Party A to Party B in respect of |

| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Cash Settlement: | On any Settlement Date in respect of which Cash Settlement applies, if the Cash Settlement Amount for such Settlement Date is a positive number, Party A will pay such Cash Settlement Amount to Party B. If the Cash Settlement Amount is a negative number, Party B will pay the absolute value of such Cash Settlement Amount to Party A. Such amounts shall be paid on the applicable Settlement Date. |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Cash Settlement Amount: | For any Settlement Date in respect of which Cash Settlement applies, an amount determined by the Calculation Agent equal to the difference between (1) the product of (i) (A) the average Forward Price over the period beginning on, and including, the date that is one Settlement Cycle following the first day of the applicable Unwind Period and ending on, and including, such Settlement Date (calculated assuming no reduction to such Forward Price for any Forward Price Reduction Date that occurs during such Unwind Period, except as set forth in clause (2) below), minus USD 0.03, minus (B) the average of the 10b-18 VWAP prices per Share on each Exchange Business Day during such Unwind Period, and (ii) the number of Settlement Shares for such Settlement Date, and (2) the product of (i) the Forward Price Reduction Amount for any Forward Price Reduction Date that occurs during such Unwind Period and (ii) the number of Settlement Shares with respect to which Party A has not unwound its hedge as of such Forward Price Reduction Date. |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Net Share Settlement: | On any Settlement Date in respect of which Net Share Settlement applies, if the number of Net Share Settlement Shares is a (i) negative number, Party A shall deliver a number of Shares to Party B equal to the absolute value of such Net Share Settlement Shares, or (ii) positive number, Party B shall deliver to Party A such Net Share Settlement Shares; provided that if Party A determines in its good faith, commercially reasonable judgment that it would be required to deliver Net Share Settlement Shares to Party B, Party A may elect to deliver a portion of such Net Share Settlement Shares on one or more |

|  | dates prior to the applicable Settlement Date. If, on any Settlement Date, the Shares to be delivered by Party B or Party A hereunder upon Net Share Settlement are not so delivered (the "Net Share Deferred Shares"), and a Forward Price Reduction Date occurs during the period from, and including, such Settlement Date to, but excluding, the date such Shares are actually delivered to such party, then the portion of the Net Share Settlement Shares deliverable by Party A or Party B in respect of the Net Share Deferred Shares shall be adjusted by the Calculation Agent to reflect the occurrence of such Forward Price Reduction Amount for such Forward Price Reduction Date. To the extent Party A is obligated to deliver Shares under the Transaction, the Representation and Agreement contained in Section 9.11 of the 2002 Definitions shall be modified by excluding any representations therein relating to restrictions, obligations, limitations or requirements under applicable securities laws that exist as a result of the fact that Party B is the issuer of the Shares. |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Net Share Settlement Shares: | For any Settlement Date in respect of which Net Share Settlement applies, a number of Shares equal to (a) the number of Settlement Shares for such Settlement Date, minus (b) the number of Shares Party A actually purchases during the Unwind Period for a total purchase price (the "Net Share Settlement Purchase Price") equal to the difference between (1) the product of (i) the average Forward Price over the period beginning on, and including, the date that is one Settlement Cycle following the first day of the applicable Unwind Period and ending on, and including, such Settlement Date (calculated assuming no reduction to such Forward Price for any Forward Price Reduction Date that occurs during such Unwind Period, except as set forth in clause (2) below), minus USD 0.02, and (ii) the number of Settlement Shares for such Settlement Date, minus (2) the product of (i) the Forward Price Reduction Amount for any Forward Price Reduction Date that occurs during such Unwind Period, and (ii) the number of Shares with respect to which Party A has not unwound its hedge as of such Forward Price Reduction Date. |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 10b-18 VWAP: | For any Exchange Business Day during an Unwind Period that is not a Suspension Day, the volume-weighted average price at which the Shares trade as reported in the composite transactions for the Exchange on such Exchange Business Day, excluding (i) trades that do not settle regular way, (ii) opening (regular way) reported trades on the Exchange on such Exchange Business |

The Calculation Agent shall notify Party B prior to making any such adjustment to such Forward Price and, upon the request of Party B, Party A shall provide an itemized list of the Stock Loan Fees for the applicable ten Scheduled Trading Day period. |

------

<u>Representations and Agreements of Party B</u>:

Party B (i) has such knowledge and experience in financial and business affairs as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of entering into the Transaction; (ii) has consulted with its own legal, financial, accounting and tax advisors in connection with the Transaction; and (iii) is entering into the Transaction for a bona fide business purpose.

Party B is not and has not been the subject of any civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction that could reasonably be expected to impair materially Party B's ability to perform its obligations hereunder.

Party B will promptly notify Party A upon obtaining knowledge of the occurrence of any event that would constitute an Event of Default or a Potential Adjustment Event.

<u>Additional Representations, Warranties and Agreements of Party B</u>: Party B hereby represents and warrants to, and agrees with, Party A as of the date hereof that:

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Board of Directors of Party B has adopted resolutions reserving and keeping available at all times, free
from preemptive rights, out of Party B's authorized but unissued Shares, solely for the purpose of issuance upon settlement of the Transactions as herein provided, the full number of Shares as may be issuable upon settlement of the Transaction.
All Shares so issuable shall, upon such issuance, be accepted for listing or quotation on the Exchange. Party B shall have submitted an application for the listing on the Exchange of the Forward Shares as may be issuable upon settlement of the
Transaction, and such application and listing shall have been approved by the Exchange, subject only to official notice of issuance, in each case, on or prior to the Effective Date.

Party B agrees and acknowledges that such submission and approval shall be a condition precedent for the purpose of Section 2(a)(iii) of the Agreement with respect to each obligation of Party A under Section 2(a)(i) of the Agreement in respect of the Transaction.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Party B agrees to provide Party A at least ten Scheduled Trading Days written notice (an "Issuer
Repurchase Notice") prior to executing any repurchase of Shares by Party B or any of its subsidiaries (or entering into any contract that would require, or give the option to, Party B or any of its subsidiaries, to purchase or repurchase
Shares), whether out of profits or capital or whether the consideration for such repurchase is cash, securities or otherwise (an "Issuer Repurchase"), that alone or in the aggregate would result in the Base Amount Percentage (as defined
below) being greater by 0.5% or more than the Base

------

Amount Percentage at the time of the immediately preceding Issuer Repurchase Notice (or in the case of the first such Issuer Repurchase Notice, greater than the Base Amount Percentage as of the date hereof). The "Base Amount Percentage" as of any day is the fraction (1) the numerator of which is the sum of the Base Amount and equivalent term under any other share forward transaction between Party A and Party B and (2) the denominator of which is the number of Shares outstanding on such day.

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Party B agrees not to make any Issuer Repurchase if, immediately following such Issuer Repurchase, the Base
Amount Percentage would be equal to or greater than 8.0%.

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) Neither Party B nor any of its affiliates shall take or refrain from taking any action (including, without
limitation, any direct purchases by Party B or any of its affiliates or any purchases by a party to a derivative transaction with Party B or any of its affiliates), either under this Forward Confirmation, under an agreement with another party or
otherwise, that might cause any purchases of Shares by Party A or any of its affiliates in connection with any Cash Settlement or Net Share Settlement hereunder not to meet the requirements of the safe harbor provided by Rule 10b-18 under the Exchange Act if such purchases were made by Party B and Rule 10b-18 were applicable to such purchases.

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Party B is an "eligible contract participant" (as such term is defined in Section 1a(18) of the
Commodity Exchange Act, as amended).

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

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(k) Party B (i) is capable of evaluating investment risks independently, both in general and with regard to
all transactions and investment strategies involving a security or securities; (ii) will exercise independent judgment in evaluating the recommendations of any broker-dealer or its associated persons, unless it has otherwise notified the
broker-dealer in writing; and (iii) has total assets of at least USD 50 million.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(l) Party B agrees it will not treat ownership positions held by Party A or any of its affiliates solely in its (or
their) capacity as a nominee or fiduciary for unrelated persons as constituting Beneficial or Constructive Ownership (as such terms are defined in Party B's Articles of Amendment or Articles of Incorporation, as amended from time to time) by
Party A.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(m) Party B acknowledges and agrees that:

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Party A and its affiliates may also be active in the market for the Shares and Share-linked transactions other
than in connection with hedging activities in relation to the Transaction;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) Party A shall make its own determination as to whether, when or in what manner any hedging or market activities
in Party B's securities shall be conducted and shall do so in a manner that it deems appropriate to hedge its price and market risk with respect to the Forward Price for the Transaction and the 10b-18 VWAP for the Transaction;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) any market activities of Party A and its affiliates with respect to the Shares may affect the market price and
volatility of the Shares, as well as the Forward Price for the Transaction and 10b-18 VWAP for the Transaction, each in a manner that may be adverse to Party B; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) the Transaction is a derivatives transaction in which it has granted Party A the right, under certain
circumstances, to receive cash or Shares, as the case may be; Party A may purchase Shares for its own account at an average price that may be greater than, or less than, the effective price paid by Party B under the terms of the Transaction.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(n) Party B has not applied for or received a loan, loan guarantee, direct loan (as that term is defined in the
Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (the "CARES Act")) or other investment, or any financial assistance or relief under any program or facility (collectively "Financial Assistance") that (a) is established
under applicable law, including without limitation the CARES Act and the

------

Federal Reserve Act, as amended, and (b) (i) would preclude or limit, as a condition to such Financial Assistance or otherwise, Party B's ability to enter into, exercise its rights or perform its obligations under the Transaction (including in connection with any Cash Settlement or Net Share Settlement) or (ii) for which the terms of the Transaction would cause Party B to fail to satisfy any condition for application for or receipt or retention of the Financial Assistance and it acknowledges that entering into the Transaction may limit its ability to receive any such Financial Assistance.

<u>Covenant of Party B</u>:

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

<u>Covenants of Party A</u>:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Unless the provisions set forth below under "Private Placement Procedures" shall be applicable, Party

hedging activities related to Party A's exposure under this Forward Confirmation.

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

<u>Insolvency Filing</u>:

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the Agreement or in the Definitions, upon any Insolvency Filing in respect of the Issuer, the Transaction shall automatically terminate on the date thereof without further liability of either party to this Forward Confirmation to the other party (except for any liability in respect of any breach of representation or covenant by a party under this Forward Confirmation prior to the date of such Insolvency Filing).

------

<u>Extraordinary Dividends</u>:

If an ex-dividend date for an Extraordinary Dividend occurs on or after the Trade Date and on or prior to the Maturity Date (or, if later, the last date on which Shares are delivered by Party B to Party A in settlement of the Transaction), Party B shall pay an amount, as determined by the Calculation Agent, in cash equal to the product of such Extraordinary Dividend and the Base Amount to Party A on the earlier of (i) the date on which such Extraordinary Dividend is paid by the Issuer to holders of record of the Shares or (ii) the Maturity Date. "Extraordinary Dividend" means the per Share amount of any cash dividend or distribution, or a portion thereof, declared by the Issuer with respect to the Shares that is specified by the board of directors of the Issuer as an "extraordinary" dividend.

<u>Acceleration Events</u>:

The following events shall each constitute an "Acceleration Event" with respect to the Transaction:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) *Stock Borrow Events*. In the good faith, commercially reasonable judgment of Party A (i) Party A (or
its affiliate) is unable to hedge Party A's exposure to the Transaction because of the lack of sufficient Shares being made available for Share borrowing by lenders, or (ii) Party A (or its affiliate) would incur a Stock Loan Fee to borrow
a number of Shares equal to the Base Amount of more than a rate equal to the Maximum Specified Borrow Rate (as defined below) (each such event, a "Stock Borrow Event");

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) *ISDA Early Termination Date*. Party A has the right to designate an Early Termination Date pursuant to
Section 6 of the Agreement;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) *Other ISDA Events*. The announcement of any event that if consummated, would result in an Extraordinary
Event or the occurrence of any Change in Law or a Delisting; provided that in case of a Delisting, in addition to the provisions of Section 12.6(a)(iii) of the 2002 Definitions, it will also constitute a Delisting if the

------

Exchange is located in the United States and the Shares are not immediately re-listed, re-traded or re-quoted on any of the New York Stock Exchange, the Nasdaq Global Select Market or the Nasdaq Global Market (or their respective successors); and provided further that the definition of "Change in Law" provided in Section 12.9(a)(ii) of the 2002 Definitions is hereby amended by (i) replacing the phrase "the interpretation" in the third line thereof with the phrase ", or public announcement of, the formal or informal interpretation", (ii) replacing the parenthetical beginning after the word "regulation" in the second line thereof with the words "(including, for the avoidance of doubt and without limitation, (x) any tax law or (y) adoption, effectiveness or promulgation of new regulations authorized or mandated by existing statute)" and (iii) immediately following the word "Transaction" in clause (X) thereof, adding the phrase "in the manner contemplated by Party A on the Forward Date for such Transaction"; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) *Ownership Event*. In the good faith, reasonable judgment of Party A, on any day, the Share Amount (as
defined below) for such day exceeds the Post-Effective Limit (as defined below) for such day (if any applies) (such event, an "Ownership Event").

The "Maximum Specified Borrow Rate" shall be 200 basis points per annum.

The "Share Amount" as of any day is the number of Shares that Party A and any person whose ownership position would be aggregated with that of Party A, including any "group" (within the meaning of Section 13 of the Exchange Act) of which Party A is or may be deemed to be a part (Party A or any such person, a "Party A Person") under any law, rule, regulation, regulatory order or organizational documents or contracts of Party B that are, in each case, applicable to ownership of Shares ("Applicable Restrictions"), owns, beneficially owns, constructively owns, controls, holds the power to vote or otherwise meets a relevant definition of ownership of under any Applicable Restriction, as determined by Party A in its reasonable discretion.

The "Post-Effective Limit" means a number of Shares equal to (x) the minimum number of Shares that could reasonably be expected to give rise to reporting or registration obligations or other requirements (including obtaining prior approval from any person or entity) of a Party A Person, or could reasonably be expected to result in an adverse effect on a Party A Person, under any Applicable Restriction, in each case as determined by Party A in its reasonable discretion, *minus* (y) 1% of the number of Shares outstanding.

<u>Termination Settlement</u>:

Upon the occurrence of any Acceleration Event, Party A shall have the right to designate, upon at least one Scheduled Trading Day's notice, any Scheduled Trading Day following such occurrence to be a Settlement Date (a "Termination Settlement Date") to which Physical Settlement shall apply, and to select the number of Settlement Shares relating to such Termination Settlement Date; provided that (i) in the case of an Acceleration Event arising out of an Ownership Event, the number of Settlement Shares so designated by Party A shall not exceed the number of Shares necessary to reduce the Share Amount to the Post-Effective Limit and

------

(ii) in the case of an Acceleration Event arising out of a Stock Borrow Event the number of Settlement Shares so designated by Party A shall not exceed the number of Shares as to which such Stock Borrow Event exists. If, upon designation of a Termination Settlement Date by Party A pursuant to the preceding sentence, Party B fails to deliver the Settlement Shares relating to such Termination Settlement Date when due or otherwise fails to perform obligations within its control in respect of the Transaction, it shall be an Event of Default with respect to Party B and Section 6 of the Agreement shall apply. If an Acceleration Event occurs during an Unwind Period relating to a number of Settlement Shares to which Cash Settlement or Net Share Settlement applies, then on the Termination Settlement Date relating to such Acceleration Event, notwithstanding any election to the contrary by Party B, Cash Settlement or Net Share Settlement shall apply to the portion of such Settlement Shares relating to such Unwind Period as to which Party A has unwound its hedge and Physical Settlement shall apply in respect of (x) the remainder (if any) of such Settlement Shares and (y) the Settlement Shares designated by Party A in respect of such Termination Settlement Date. Under no circumstances will Party A be entitled to an adjustment to the terms of the Transaction for the effects of an Extraordinary Dividend (other than as set forth above under the heading "Extraordinary Dividends") or a change in expected dividends.

<u>Private Placement Procedures</u>:

If Party B is unable to comply with the provisions of "Covenant of Party B" above because of a change in law or a change in the policy of the Securities and Exchange Commission or its staff, or Party A otherwise determines that in its reasonable opinion any Settlement Shares to be delivered to Party A by Party B may not be freely returned by Party A or its affiliates to securities lenders as described under "Covenant of Party B" above, then delivery of any such Settlement Shares (the "Restricted Shares") shall be effected pursuant to Annex A hereto, unless waived by Party A; provided that Party A may not otherwise determine that the Settlement Shares are Restricted Shares based solely upon Party A (or its affiliates) not having borrowed a number of Shares equal to the Base Amount on or before the Effective Date if there has been no change in law or change in the policy of the Securities and Exchange Commission or its staff.

<u>Rule 10b5-1</u>:

It is the intent of Party A and Party B that following any election of Cash Settlement or Net Share Settlement by Party B, the purchase of Shares by Party A during any Unwind Period comply with the requirements of Rule 10b5-1(c)(1)(i)(B) of the Exchange Act and that this Forward Confirmation shall be interpreted to comply with the requirements of Rule 10b5-1(c).

Party B acknowledges that (i) during any Unwind Period, Party B does not have, and shall not attempt to exercise, any influence over how, when or whether to effect purchases of Shares by Party A (or its agent or affiliate) in connection with this Forward Confirmation and (ii) Party B is entering into the Agreement and this Forward Confirmation in good faith and not as part of a plan or scheme to evade compliance with federal securities laws including, without limitation, Rule 10b-5 promulgated under the Exchange Act.

------

Party B hereby agrees with Party A that, during any Unwind Period, Party B shall not communicate, directly or indirectly, any Material Non-Public Information (as defined below) to any EDG Personnel (as defined below), where "Material Non-Public Information" means information relating to Party B or the Shares that (a) has not been widely disseminated by wire service, in one or more newspapers of general circulation, by communication from Party B to its shareholders or in a press release, or contained in a public filing made by Party B with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or otherwise disseminated in a manner constituting "public disclosure" within the meaning of Regulation FD under the Exchange Act and (b) a reasonable investor might consider to be of importance in making an investment decision to buy, sell or hold Shares. For the avoidance of doubt and solely by way of illustration, information should be presumed "material" if it relates to such matters as dividend increases or decreases, earnings estimates, changes in previously released earnings estimates, significant expansion or curtailment of operations, a significant increase or decline in leasing activity, significant merger or acquisition proposals or agreements, extraordinary borrowing, major litigation, liquidity problems, extraordinary management developments, purchase or sale of substantial assets, or other similar information. "EDG Personnel" means any employee on the trading side of the Equity Derivatives Group of Party A and does not include any of Party A's "private side" equity or equity-linked personnel (including, without limitation, any Party A equity or equity-linked legal personnel) (or any other person or persons designated from time to time in writing to Party B by Party A).

<u>Maximum Share Delivery</u>:

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Forward Confirmation, in no event will Party B be required to deliver on any Settlement Date, whether pursuant to Physical Settlement, Net Share Settlement, Termination Settlement or any Private Placement Settlement, more than a number of Shares equal to the product of 2 *and* the initial Base Amount to Party A (the "Forward Shares"). In connection with any partial settlement of the Transaction, the Base Amount shall be subject to reduction by an amount equal to the product of 2 *and* the number of Settlement Shares for such partial settlement. The Forward Shares shall be subject to adjustment from time to time in accordance with the provisions of this Forward Confirmation and the 2002 Definitions.

<u>Transfer and Assignment</u>:

Party A may assign or transfer any of its rights or delegate any of its duties hereunder, without the prior written consent of Party B, to (i) any affiliate of Party A, whose obligations hereunder and under the Agreement are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Party A or (ii) any affiliate of Party A that has a rating for its long-term, unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness or a long-term issuer rating that is equal to or better than the rating for Party A's long-term, unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness or Party A's long-term issuer rating, as the case may be, at the time of such assignment or transfer so long as, in each case, at the time of such assignment or transfer (a) Party B will not, as a result of such assignment or transfer, be required to pay to such assignee or transferee an amount in respect of an Indemnifiable Tax under Section 2(d)(i)(4) of the Agreement greater than the amount in respect of which Party B would have been required to pay Party A in the absence of such assignment or transfer; (b) Party B will not, as a result of such assignment or transfer, receive a payment from which an amount has been

withheld or deducted on account of a Tax under Section 2(d)(i) of the Agreement in excess of that which Party A would have been required to so withhold or deduct in the absence of such assignment or transfer; and (c) no Event of Default, Potential Event of Default or Termination Event will occur as a result of such assignment or transfer. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Forward Confirmation to the contrary requiring or allowing Party A to purchase, sell, receive or deliver any Shares or other securities to or from Party B, Party A may designate any of its affiliates to purchase, sell, receive or deliver such Shares or other securities and otherwise to perform Party A's obligations in respect of the Transaction and any such designee may assume such obligations. Party A shall be discharged of its obligations to Party B to the extent of any such performance.

<u>Indemnity</u>:

Party B agrees to indemnify Party A and its affiliates and their respective directors, officers, agents and controlling parties (Party A and each such affiliate or person being an "Indemnified Party") from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities, joint and several, incurred by or asserted against such Indemnified Party arising out of, in connection with, or relating to, any breach of any covenant or representation made by Party B in this Forward Confirmation or the Agreement and will reimburse any Indemnified Party for all reasonable expenses (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) as they are incurred in connection with the investigation of, preparation for, or defense of any pending or threatened claim or any action or proceeding arising therefrom, whether or not such Indemnified Party is a party thereto.

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

<u>No Collateral or Setoff</u>:

Notwithstanding Section 6(f) or any other provision of the Agreement or any other agreement between the parties to the contrary, the obligations of Party B under the Transaction are not secured by any collateral. Obligations under the Transaction shall not be set off against any other obligations of the parties, whether arising under the Agreement, under this Forward Confirmation, under any other agreement between the parties hereto, by operation of law or otherwise, and no other obligations of the parties shall be set off against obligations under the Transaction, whether arising under the Agreement, under this Forward Confirmation, under any other agreement between the parties hereto, by operation of law or otherwise, and each party hereby waives any such right of setoff.

------

<u>Status of Claims in Bankruptcy</u>:

Party A acknowledges and agrees that this Forward Confirmation is not intended to convey to Party A rights with respect to the Transaction that are senior to the claims of common stockholders in any U.S. bankruptcy proceedings of Party B; provided, however*,* that nothing herein shall limit or shall be deemed to limit Party A's right to pursue remedies in the event of a breach by Party B of its obligations and agreements with respect to this Forward Confirmation and the Agreement; and provided further, that nothing herein shall limit or shall be deemed to limit Party A's rights in respect of any transaction other than the Transaction.

<u>Limit on Beneficial Ownership</u>:

Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, Party A shall not have the "right to acquire" (within the meaning of NYSE Rule 312.04(g)) Shares hereunder and Party A shall not be entitled to take delivery of any Shares deliverable hereunder in respect of the Transaction (in each case, whether in connection with the purchase of Shares on any Settlement Date or any Termination Settlement Date, any Private Placement Settlement or otherwise) to the extent (but only to the extent) that, after such receipt of any Shares hereunder, (i) the Share Amount would exceed the Post-Effective Limit, (ii) the Section 16 Percentage would exceed 7.5% or (iii) Party A and each person subject to aggregation of Shares with Party A under Section 13 or Section 16 of the Exchange Act and rules promulgated thereunder (the "Party A Group") would directly or indirectly beneficially own (as such term is defined for purposes of Section 13 or Section 16 of the Exchange Act and rules promulgated thereunder) in excess of the Threshold Number of Shares. Any purported delivery hereunder shall be void and have no effect to the extent (but only to the extent) that, after such delivery, (i) the Share Amount would exceed the Post-Effective Limit, (ii) the Section 16 Percentage would exceed 7.5% or (iii) Party A Group would directly or indirectly so beneficially own in excess of the Threshold Number of Shares. If any delivery owed to Party A hereunder is not made, in whole or in part, as a result of this provision, Party B's obligation to make such delivery shall not be extinguished and Party B shall make such delivery as promptly as practicable after, but in no event later than one Exchange Business Day after, Party A gives notice to Party B that, after such delivery, (i) the Share Amount would not exceed the Post-Effective Limit, (ii) the Section 16 Percentage would not exceed 7.5% and (iii) Party A Group would not directly or indirectly so beneficially own in excess of the Threshold Number of Shares. The "Threshold Number of Shares" means 2,290,154 Shares. The "Section 16 Percentage" as of any day is the fraction, expressed as a percentage, (A) the numerator of which is the number of Shares that Party A and any of its affiliates or any other person subject to aggregation with Party A for purposes of the "beneficial ownership" test under Section 13 of the Exchange Act, or any "group" (within the meaning of Section 13 of the Exchange Act) of which Party A is or may be deemed to be a part beneficially owns (within the meaning of Section 13 of the Exchange Act), without duplication, on such day (or, to the extent that for any reason the equivalent calculation under Section 16 of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder results in a higher number, such higher number) and (B) the denominator of which is the number of Shares outstanding on such day.

------

In addition, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if any delivery owed to Party A hereunder is not made, in whole or in part, as a result of the immediately preceding paragraph, Party A shall be permitted to make any payment due in respect of such Shares to Party B in two or more tranches that correspond in amount to the number of Shares delivered by Party B to Party A pursuant to the immediately preceding paragraph.

<u>Other Forward Transactions</u>:

Party A acknowledges that Party B has entered into or may enter in the future into one or more forward transactions on the Shares (each, an "Other Forward" and, collectively, the "Other Forwards") with one or more forward purchasers. Party A and Party B agree that if Party B designates a "Settlement Date" (or equivalent concept) with respect to one or more Other Forwards for which "Cash Settlement" (or equivalent concept) or "Net Share Settlement" (or equivalent concept) is applicable, and the resulting "Unwind Period" (or equivalent concept) for such Other Forward(s) coincides for any period of time with an Unwind Period (the "Overlap Unwind Period"), Party B shall notify Party A at least one Scheduled Trading Day prior to the commencement of such Overlap Unwind Period of the first Scheduled Trading Day and the length of such Overlap Unwind Period, and Party A shall be permitted to purchase Shares to unwind its hedge in respect of the Transaction only on alternating Scheduled Trading Days during such Overlap Unwind Period, as notified to Party A by Party B at least one Exchange Business Day prior to such Overlap Unwind Period (which alternating Scheduled Trading Days, for the avoidance of doubt, shall be every other Scheduled Trading Day if there is only one Other Forward, every third Scheduled Trading Day if there are two Other Forwards, etc.).

<u>Wall Street Transparency and Accountability Act</u>:

In connection with Section 739 of the Wall Street Transparency and Accountability Act of 2010 (the "WSTAA"), the parties hereby agree that neither the enactment of the WSTAA or any regulation under the WSTAA, nor any requirement under the WSTAA or an amendment made by the WSTAA, shall limit or otherwise impair either party's otherwise applicable rights to terminate, renegotiate, modify, amend or supplement this Forward Confirmation or the Agreement, as applicable, arising from a termination event, force majeure, illegality, increased costs, regulatory change or similar event under this Forward Confirmation, the 2002 Definitions incorporated herein or the Agreement (including, but not limited to, rights arising from any Acceleration Event or Illegality (as defined in the Agreement)).

<u>Severability</u>:

If any term, provision, covenant or condition of this Forward Confirmation, or the application thereof to any party or circumstance, shall be held to be invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part for any reason, the remaining terms, provisions, covenants, and conditions hereof shall

------

continue in full force and effect as if this Forward Confirmation had been executed with the invalid or unenforceable provision eliminated, so long as this Forward Confirmation as so modified continues to express, without material change, the original intentions of the parties as to the subject matter of this Forward Confirmation and the deletion of such portion of this Forward Confirmation will not substantially impair the respective benefits or expectations of parties to this Forward Confirmation; provided, however, that this severability provision shall not be applicable if any provision of Section 2, 5, 6 or 13 of the Agreement (or any definition or provision in Section 14 to the extent that it relates to, or is used in or in connection with any such Section) shall be so held to be invalid or unenforceable.

<u>U.S. Resolution Stay Protocol</u>:

The parties acknowledge and agree that (i) to the extent that prior to the date hereof both parties have adhered to the 2018 ISDA U.S. Resolution Stay Protocol (the "Protocol"), the terms of the Protocol are incorporated into and form a part of the Agreement, and for such purposes the Agreement shall be deemed a Protocol Covered Agreement, Party A shall be deemed a Regulated Entity and Party B shall be deemed an Adhering Party; (ii) to the extent that prior to the date hereof the parties have executed a separate agreement the effect of which is to amend the qualified financial contracts between them to conform with the requirements of the QFC Stay Rules (as defined below) (the "Bilateral Agreement"), the terms of the Bilateral Agreement are incorporated into and form a part of the Agreement, and for such purposes the Agreement shall be deemed a "Covered Agreement," Party A shall be deemed a "Covered Entity" and Party B shall be deemed a "Counterparty Entity"; or (iii) if clause (i) and clause (ii) do not apply, the terms of Section 1 and Section 2 and the related defined terms (together, the "Bilateral Terms") of the form of bilateral template entitled "Full-Length Omnibus (for use between U.S. G-SIBs and Corporate Groups)" published by ISDA on November 2, 2018 (currently available on the 2018 ISDA U.S. Resolution Stay Protocol page at www.isda.org and, a copy of which is available upon request), the effect of which is to amend the qualified financial contracts between the parties thereto to conform with the requirements of the QFC Stay Rules, are hereby incorporated into and form a part of the Agreement, and for such purposes the Agreement shall be deemed a "Covered Agreement," Party A shall be deemed a "Covered Entity" and Party B shall be deemed a "Counterparty Entity."

------

Orderly Liquidation Authority under Title II of the Dodd Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and the override of default rights related directly or indirectly to the entry of an affiliate into certain insolvency proceedings and any restrictions on the transfer of any covered affiliate credit enhancements.

<u>Tax Matters</u>:

(i) the accuracy of any representations made by the other party pursuant to Section 3(f) of this Agreement; (ii) the satisfaction of the agreement contained in Section 4(a)(i) or 4(a)(iii) of this Agreement and the accuracy and
effectiveness of any document provided by the other party pursuant to Section 4(a)(i) or 4(a)(iii) of this Agreement; and (iii) the satisfaction of the agreement of the other party contained in Section 4(d) of this Agreement; provided
that it shall not be a breach of this representation where reliance is placed on clause (ii) and the other party does not deliver a form or document under Section 4(a)(iii) by reason of material prejudice to its legal or commercial
position.

**<u>ANNEX A</u>**

**PRIVATE PLACEMENT PROCEDURES** 

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

(ii) If Party B delivers any Restricted Shares in respect of the Transaction, unless it is advised in writing by
outside counsel that any of the following actions would violate applicable securities laws because of a change in law or a change in the policy of the Securities and Exchange Commission or its staff occurring after the date hereof, Party B agrees
that (i) such Shares may be transferred by and among Party A and its affiliates and (ii) after the minimum "holding period" within the meaning of Rule 144(d) under the Securities Act has elapsed after the applicable Settlement
Date, Party B shall promptly remove, or cause the transfer agent for the Shares to remove, any legends referring to any transfer restrictions from such Shares upon delivery by Party A (or such affiliate of Party A) to Party B or such transfer agent
of seller's and broker's representation letters customarily delivered by Party A or its affiliates in connection with resales of restricted securities pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act, each without any further requirement for
the delivery of any certificate, consent, agreement, opinion of counsel, notice or any other document, any transfer tax stamps or payment of any other amount or any other action by Party A (or such affiliate of Party A).

If any Exchange Business Day during an Unwind Period is a Disrupted Day, the Calculation Agent shall make commercially reasonable adjustments to the terms of the Transaction (including, without limitation, the Cash Settlement Amount, the number of Net Share Settlement Shares and the 10b-18 VWAP) to account for the occurrence of such Disrupted Day. |

If, on any Settlement Date, the Shares to be delivered by Party B to Party A hereunder upon Physical Settlement are not so delivered (the "Physical Deferred Shares"), and a Forward Price Reduction Date occurs during the period from, and including, such Settlement Date to, but excluding, the date such Shares are actually delivered to Party A, then the portion of the Physical Settlement Amount payable by Party A to Party B in respect of the Physical Deferred Shares shall be reduced by an amount equal to the Forward Price Reduction Amount for such Forward Price Reduction Date, multiplied by the number of Physical Deferred Shares. |

To the extent Party A is obligated to deliver Shares under the Transaction, the Representation and Agreement contained in Section 9.11 of the 2002 Definitions shall be modified by excluding any representations therein relating to restrictions, obligations, limitations or requirements under applicable securities laws that exist as a result of the fact that Party B is the issuer of the Shares. |
| Net Share Settlement Shares: | For any Settlement Date in respect of which Net Share Settlement applies, a number of Shares equal to (a) the number of Settlement Shares for such Settlement Date, minus (b) the number of Shares Party A actually purchases during the Unwind Period for a total purchase price (the "Net Share Settlement Purchase Price") equal to the difference between (1) the product of (i) the average Forward Price over the period beginning on, and including, the date that is one Settlement Cycle following the first day of the applicable Unwind Period and ending on, and including, such Settlement Date (calculated assuming no reduction to such Forward Price for any Forward Price Reduction Date that occurs during such Unwind Period, except as set forth in clause (2) below), minus USD 0.02, and (ii) the number of Settlement Shares for such Settlement Date, minus (2) the product of (i) the Forward Price Reduction Amount for any Forward Price Reduction Date that occurs during such Unwind Period, and (ii) the number of Shares with respect to which Party A has not unwound its hedge as of such Forward Price Reduction Date. |

<u>Additional Representations, Warranties and Agreements of Party B</u>: Party B hereby represents and warrants to, and agrees with, Party A as of the date hereof that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Any Shares, when issued and delivered in accordance with the terms of the Transaction, will be duly authorized

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Board of Directors of Party B has adopted resolutions reserving and keeping available at all times, free
from preemptive rights, out of Party B's authorized but unissued Shares, solely for the purpose of issuance upon settlement of the Transactions as herein provided, the full number of Shares as may be issuable upon settlement of the Transaction.
All Shares so issuable shall, upon such issuance, be accepted for listing or quotation on the Exchange. Party B shall have submitted an application for the listing on the Exchange of the Forward Shares as may be issuable upon settlement of the
Transaction, and such application and listing shall have been approved by the Exchange, subject only to official notice of issuance, in each case, on or prior to the Effective Date.

Party B agrees and acknowledges that such submission and approval shall be a condition precedent for the purpose of Section 2(a)(iii) of the Agreement with respect to each obligation of Party A under Section 2(a)(i) of the Agreement in respect of the Transaction.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Party B agrees to provide Party A at least ten Scheduled Trading Days written notice (an "Issuer

Shares), whether out of profits or capital or whether the consideration for such repurchase is cash, securities or otherwise (an "Issuer Repurchase"), that alone or in the aggregate would result in the Base Amount Percentage (as defined
below) being greater by 0.5% or more than the Base

------

Amount Percentage at the time of the immediately preceding Issuer Repurchase Notice (or in the case of the first such Issuer Repurchase Notice, greater than the Base Amount Percentage as of the date hereof). The "Base Amount Percentage" as of any day is the fraction (1) the numerator of which is the sum of the Base Amount and equivalent term under any other share forward transaction between Party A and Party B and (2) the denominator of which is the number of Shares outstanding on such day.

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) Neither Party B nor any of its affiliates shall take or refrain from taking any action (including, without
limitation, any direct purchases by Party B or any of its affiliates or any purchases by a party to a derivative transaction with Party B or any of its affiliates), either under this Forward Confirmation, under an agreement with another party or
otherwise, that might cause any purchases of Shares by Party A or any of its affiliates in connection with any Cash Settlement or Net Share Settlement hereunder not to meet the requirements of the safe harbor provided by Rule 10b-18 under the Exchange Act if such purchases were made by Party B and Rule 10b-18 were applicable to such purchases.

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Party B is an "eligible contract participant" (as such term is defined in Section 1a(18) of the
Commodity Exchange Act, as amended).

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

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(k) Party B (i) is capable of evaluating investment risks independently, both in general and with regard to
all transactions and investment strategies involving a security or securities; (ii) will exercise independent judgment in evaluating the recommendations of any broker-dealer or its associated persons, unless it has otherwise notified the
broker-dealer in writing; and (iii) has total assets of at least USD 50 million.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(l) Party B agrees it will not treat ownership positions held by Party A or any of its affiliates solely in its (or
their) capacity as a nominee or fiduciary for unrelated persons as constituting Beneficial or Constructive Ownership (as such terms are defined in Party B's Articles of Amendment or Articles of Incorporation, as amended from time to time) by
Party A.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(m) Party B acknowledges and agrees that:

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Party A and its affiliates may also be active in the market for the Shares and Share-linked transactions other
than in connection with hedging activities in relation to the Transaction;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) Party A shall make its own determination as to whether, when or in what manner any hedging or market activities
in Party B's securities shall be conducted and shall do so in a manner that it deems appropriate to hedge its price and market risk with respect to the Forward Price for the Transaction and the 10b-18 VWAP for the Transaction;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) any market activities of Party A and its affiliates with respect to the Shares may affect the market price and
volatility of the Shares, as well as the Forward Price for the Transaction and 10b-18 VWAP for the Transaction, each in a manner that may be adverse to Party B; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) the Transaction is a derivatives transaction in which it has granted Party A the right, under certain
circumstances, to receive cash or Shares, as the case may be; Party A may purchase Shares for its own account at an average price that may be greater than, or less than, the effective price paid by Party B under the terms of the Transaction.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(n) Party B has not applied for or received a loan, loan guarantee, direct loan (as that term is defined in the
Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (the "CARES Act")) or other investment, or any financial assistance or relief under any program or facility (collectively "Financial Assistance") that (a) is established
under applicable law, including without limitation the CARES Act and the

------

Federal Reserve Act, as amended, and (b) (i) would preclude or limit, as a condition to such Financial Assistance or otherwise, Party B's ability to enter into, exercise its rights or perform its obligations under the Transaction (including in connection with any Cash Settlement or Net Share Settlement) or (ii) for which the terms of the Transaction would cause Party B to fail to satisfy any condition for application for or receipt or retention of the Financial Assistance and it acknowledges that entering into the Transaction may limit its ability to receive any such Financial Assistance.

<u>Covenant of Party B</u>:

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

<u>Covenants of Party A</u>:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Unless the provisions set forth below under "Private Placement Procedures" shall be applicable, Party

hedging activities related to Party A's exposure under this Forward Confirmation.

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

<u>Insolvency Filing</u>:

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the Agreement or in the Definitions, upon any Insolvency Filing in respect of the Issuer, the Transaction shall automatically terminate on the date thereof without further liability of either party to this Forward Confirmation to the other party (except for any liability in respect of any breach of representation or covenant by a party under this Forward Confirmation prior to the date of such Insolvency Filing).

------

<u>Extraordinary Dividends</u>:

If an ex-dividend date for an Extraordinary Dividend occurs on or after the Trade Date and on or prior to the Maturity Date (or, if later, the last date on which Shares are delivered by Party B to Party A in settlement of the Transaction), Party B shall pay an amount, as determined by the Calculation Agent, in cash equal to the product of such Extraordinary Dividend and the Base Amount to Party A on the earlier of (i) the date on which such Extraordinary Dividend is paid by the Issuer to holders of record of the Shares or (ii) the Maturity Date. "Extraordinary Dividend" means the per Share amount of any cash dividend or distribution, or a portion thereof, declared by the Issuer with respect to the Shares that is specified by the board of directors of the Issuer as an "extraordinary" dividend.

<u>Acceleration Events</u>:

The following events shall each constitute an "Acceleration Event" with respect to the Transaction:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) *Stock Borrow Events*. In the good faith, commercially reasonable judgment of Party A (i) Party A (or
its affiliate) is unable to hedge Party A's exposure to the Transaction because of the lack of sufficient Shares being made available for Share borrowing by lenders, or (ii) Party A (or its affiliate) would incur a Stock Loan Fee to borrow
a number of Shares equal to the Base Amount of more than a rate equal to the Maximum Specified Borrow Rate (as defined below) (each such event, a "Stock Borrow Event");

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) *ISDA Early Termination Date*. Party A has the right to designate an Early Termination Date pursuant to
Section 6 of the Agreement;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) *Other ISDA Events*. The announcement of any event that if consummated, would result in an Extraordinary
Event or the occurrence of any Change in Law or a Delisting; provided that in case of a Delisting, in addition to the provisions of Section 12.6(a)(iii) of the 2002 Definitions, it will also constitute a Delisting if the

------

Exchange is located in the United States and the Shares are not immediately re-listed, re-traded or re-quoted on any of the New York Stock Exchange, the Nasdaq Global Select Market or the Nasdaq Global Market (or their respective successors); and provided further that the definition of "Change in Law" provided in Section 12.9(a)(ii) of the 2002 Definitions is hereby amended by (i) replacing the phrase "the interpretation" in the third line thereof with the phrase ", or public announcement of, the formal or informal interpretation", (ii) replacing the parenthetical beginning after the word "regulation" in the second line thereof with the words "(including, for the avoidance of doubt and without limitation, (x) any tax law or (y) adoption, effectiveness or promulgation of new regulations authorized or mandated by existing statute)" and (iii) immediately following the word "Transaction" in clause (X) thereof, adding the phrase "in the manner contemplated by Party A on the Forward Date for such Transaction"; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) *Ownership Event*. In the good faith, reasonable judgment of Party A, on any day, the Share Amount (as
defined below) for such day exceeds the Post-Effective Limit (as defined below) for such day (if any applies) (such event, an "Ownership Event").

The "Maximum Specified Borrow Rate" shall be 200 basis points per annum.

The "Share Amount" as of any day is the number of Shares that Party A and any person whose ownership position would be aggregated with that of Party A, including any "group" (within the meaning of Section 13 of the Exchange Act) of which Party A is or may be deemed to be a part (Party A or any such person, a "Party A Person") under any law, rule, regulation, regulatory order or organizational documents or contracts of Party B that are, in each case, applicable to ownership of Shares ("Applicable Restrictions"), owns, beneficially owns, constructively owns, controls, holds the power to vote or otherwise meets a relevant definition of ownership of under any Applicable Restriction, as determined by Party A in its reasonable discretion.

The "Post-Effective Limit" means a number of Shares equal to (x) the minimum number of Shares that could reasonably be expected to give rise to reporting or registration obligations or other requirements (including obtaining prior approval from any person or entity) of a Party A Person, or could reasonably be expected to result in an adverse effect on a Party A Person, under any Applicable Restriction, in each case as determined by Party A in its reasonable discretion, *minus* (y) 1% of the number of Shares outstanding.

<u>Termination Settlement</u>:

Upon the occurrence of any Acceleration Event, Party A shall have the right to designate, upon at least one Scheduled Trading Day's notice, any Scheduled Trading Day following such occurrence to be a Settlement Date (a "Termination Settlement Date") to which Physical Settlement shall apply, and to select the number of Settlement Shares relating to such Termination Settlement Date; provided that (i) in the case of an Acceleration Event arising out of an Ownership Event, the number of Settlement Shares so designated by Party A shall not exceed the number of Shares necessary to reduce the Share Amount to the Post-Effective Limit and

------

(ii) in the case of an Acceleration Event arising out of a Stock Borrow Event the number of Settlement Shares so designated by Party A shall not exceed the number of Shares as to which such Stock Borrow Event exists. If, upon designation of a Termination Settlement Date by Party A pursuant to the preceding sentence, Party B fails to deliver the Settlement Shares relating to such Termination Settlement Date when due or otherwise fails to perform obligations within its control in respect of the Transaction, it shall be an Event of Default with respect to Party B and Section 6 of the Agreement shall apply. If an Acceleration Event occurs during an Unwind Period relating to a number of Settlement Shares to which Cash Settlement or Net Share Settlement applies, then on the Termination Settlement Date relating to such Acceleration Event, notwithstanding any election to the contrary by Party B, Cash Settlement or Net Share Settlement shall apply to the portion of such Settlement Shares relating to such Unwind Period as to which Party A has unwound its hedge and Physical Settlement shall apply in respect of (x) the remainder (if any) of such Settlement Shares and (y) the Settlement Shares designated by Party A in respect of such Termination Settlement Date. Under no circumstances will Party A be entitled to an adjustment to the terms of the Transaction for the effects of an Extraordinary Dividend (other than as set forth above under the heading "Extraordinary Dividends") or a change in expected dividends.

<u>Private Placement Procedures</u>:

If Party B is unable to comply with the provisions of "Covenant of Party B" above because of a change in law or a change in the policy of the Securities and Exchange Commission or its staff, or Party A otherwise determines that in its reasonable opinion any Settlement Shares to be delivered to Party A by Party B may not be freely returned by Party A or its affiliates to securities lenders as described under "Covenant of Party B" above, then delivery of any such Settlement Shares (the "Restricted Shares") shall be effected pursuant to Annex A hereto, unless waived by Party A; provided that Party A may not otherwise determine that the Settlement Shares are Restricted Shares based solely upon Party A (or its affiliates) not having borrowed a number of Shares equal to the Base Amount on or before the Effective Date if there has been no change in law or change in the policy of the Securities and Exchange Commission or its staff.

<u>Rule 10b5-1</u>:

It is the intent of Party A and Party B that following any election of Cash Settlement or Net Share Settlement by Party B, the purchase of Shares by Party A during any Unwind Period comply with the requirements of Rule 10b5-1(c)(1)(i)(B) of the Exchange Act and that this Forward Confirmation shall be interpreted to comply with the requirements of Rule 10b5-1(c).

Party B acknowledges that (i) during any Unwind Period, Party B does not have, and shall not attempt to exercise, any influence over how, when or whether to effect purchases of Shares by Party A (or its agent or affiliate) in connection with this Forward Confirmation and (ii) Party B is entering into the Agreement and this Forward Confirmation in good faith and not as part of a plan or scheme to evade compliance with federal securities laws including, without limitation, Rule 10b-5 promulgated under the Exchange Act.

------

Party B hereby agrees with Party A that, during any Unwind Period, Party B shall not communicate, directly or indirectly, any Material Non-Public Information (as defined below) to any EDG Personnel (as defined below), where "Material Non-Public Information" means information relating to Party B or the Shares that (a) has not been widely disseminated by wire service, in one or more newspapers of general circulation, by communication from Party B to its shareholders or in a press release, or contained in a public filing made by Party B with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or otherwise disseminated in a manner constituting "public disclosure" within the meaning of Regulation FD under the Exchange Act and (b) a reasonable investor might consider to be of importance in making an investment decision to buy, sell or hold Shares. For the avoidance of doubt and solely by way of illustration, information should be presumed "material" if it relates to such matters as dividend increases or decreases, earnings estimates, changes in previously released earnings estimates, significant expansion or curtailment of operations, a significant increase or decline in leasing activity, significant merger or acquisition proposals or agreements, extraordinary borrowing, major litigation, liquidity problems, extraordinary management developments, purchase or sale of substantial assets, or other similar information. "EDG Personnel" means any employee on the trading side of the Equity Derivatives Group of Party A and does not include any of Party A's "private side" equity or equity-linked personnel (including, without limitation, any Party A equity or equity-linked legal personnel) (or any other person or persons designated from time to time in writing to Party B by Party A).

<u>Maximum Share Delivery</u>:

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Forward Confirmation, in no event will Party B be required to deliver on any Settlement Date, whether pursuant to Physical Settlement, Net Share Settlement, Termination Settlement or any Private Placement Settlement, more than a number of Shares equal to the product of 2 *and* the initial Base Amount to Party A (the "Forward Shares"). In connection with any partial settlement of the Transaction, the Base Amount shall be subject to reduction by an amount equal to the product of 2 *and* the number of Settlement Shares for such partial settlement. The Forward Shares shall be subject to adjustment from time to time in accordance with the provisions of this Forward Confirmation and the 2002 Definitions.

<u>Transfer and Assignment</u>:

Party A may assign or transfer any of its rights or delegate any of its duties hereunder, without the prior written consent of Party B, to (i) any affiliate of Party A, whose obligations hereunder and under the Agreement are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Party A or (ii) any affiliate of Party A that has a rating for its long-term, unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness or a long-term issuer rating that is equal to or better than the rating for Party A's long-term, unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness or Party A's long-term issuer rating, as the case may be, at the time of such assignment or transfer so long as, in each case, at the time of such assignment or transfer (a) Party B will not, as a result of such assignment or transfer, be required to pay to such assignee or transferee an amount in respect of an Indemnifiable Tax under Section 2(d)(i)(4) of the Agreement greater than the amount in respect of which Party B would have been required to pay Party A in the absence of such assignment or transfer; (b) Party B will not, as a result of such assignment or transfer, receive a payment from which an amount has been

------

withheld or deducted on account of a Tax under Section 2(d)(i) of the Agreement in excess of that which Party A would have been required to so withhold or deduct in the absence of such assignment or transfer; and (c) no Event of Default, Potential Event of Default or Termination Event will occur as a result of such assignment or transfer. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Forward Confirmation to the contrary requiring or allowing Party A to purchase, sell, receive or deliver any Shares or other securities to or from Party B, Party A may designate any of its affiliates to purchase, sell, receive or deliver such Shares or other securities and otherwise to perform Party A's obligations in respect of the Transaction and any such designee may assume such obligations. Party A shall be discharged of its obligations to Party B to the extent of any such performance.

<u>Indemnity</u>:

Party B agrees to indemnify Party A and its affiliates and their respective directors, officers, agents and controlling parties (Party A and each such affiliate or person being an "Indemnified Party") from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities, joint and several, incurred by or asserted against such Indemnified Party arising out of, in connection with, or relating to, any breach of any covenant or representation made by Party B in this Forward Confirmation or the Agreement and will reimburse any Indemnified Party for all reasonable expenses (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) as they are incurred in connection with the investigation of, preparation for, or defense of any pending or threatened claim or any action or proceeding arising therefrom, whether or not such Indemnified Party is a party thereto. Party B will not be liable under this Indemnity paragraph to the extent that any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense is found in a final and nonappealable judgment by a court to have resulted from any Indemnified Party's gross negligence or willful misconduct.

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

<u>No Collateral or Setoff</u>:

Notwithstanding Section 6(f) or any other provision of the Agreement or any other agreement between the parties to the contrary, the obligations of Party B under the Transaction are not secured by any collateral. Obligations under the Transaction shall not be set off against any other obligations of the parties, whether arising under the Agreement, under this Forward Confirmation, under any other agreement between the parties hereto, by operation of law or otherwise, and no other obligations of the parties shall be set off against obligations under the Transaction, whether arising under the Agreement, under this Forward Confirmation, under any other agreement between the parties hereto, by operation of law or otherwise, and each party hereby waives any such right of setoff.

------

<u>Status of Claims in Bankruptcy</u>:

Party A acknowledges and agrees that this Forward Confirmation is not intended to convey to Party A rights with respect to the Transaction that are senior to the claims of common stockholders in any U.S. bankruptcy proceedings of Party B; provided, however*,* that nothing herein shall limit or shall be deemed to limit Party A's right to pursue remedies in the event of a breach by Party B of its obligations and agreements with respect to this Forward Confirmation and the Agreement; and provided further, that nothing herein shall limit or shall be deemed to limit Party A's rights in respect of any transaction other than the Transaction.

<u>Limit on Beneficial Ownership</u>:

Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, Party A shall not have the "right to acquire" (within the meaning of NYSE Rule 312.04(g)) Shares hereunder and Party A shall not be entitled to take delivery of any Shares deliverable hereunder in respect of the Transaction (in each case, whether in connection with the purchase of Shares on any Settlement Date or any Termination Settlement Date, any Private Placement Settlement or otherwise) to the extent (but only to the extent) that, after such receipt of any Shares hereunder, (i) the Share Amount would exceed the Post-Effective Limit, (ii) the Section 16 Percentage would exceed 7.5% or (iii) Party A and each person subject to aggregation of Shares with Party A under Section 13 or Section 16 of the Exchange Act and rules promulgated thereunder (the "Party A Group") would directly or indirectly beneficially own (as such term is defined for purposes of Section 13 or Section 16 of the Exchange Act and rules promulgated thereunder) in excess of the Threshold Number of Shares. Any purported delivery hereunder shall be void and have no effect to the extent (but only to the extent) that, after such delivery, (i) the Share Amount would exceed the Post-Effective Limit, (ii) the Section 16 Percentage would exceed 7.5% or (iii) Party A Group would directly or indirectly so beneficially own in excess of the Threshold Number of Shares. If any delivery owed to Party A hereunder is not made, in whole or in part, as a result of this provision, Party B's obligation to make such delivery shall not be extinguished and Party B shall make such delivery as promptly as practicable after, but in no event later than one Exchange Business Day after, Party A gives notice to Party B that, after such delivery, (i) the Share Amount would not exceed the Post-Effective Limit, (ii) the Section 16 Percentage would not exceed 7.5% and (iii) Party A Group would not directly or indirectly so beneficially own in excess of the Threshold Number of Shares. The "Threshold Number of Shares" means 2,290,154 Shares. The "Section 16 Percentage" as of any day is the fraction, expressed as a percentage, (A) the numerator of which is the number of Shares that Party A and any of its affiliates or any other person subject to aggregation with Party A for purposes of the "beneficial ownership" test under Section 13 of the Exchange Act, or any "group" (within the meaning of Section 13 of the Exchange Act) of which Party A is or may be deemed to be a part beneficially owns (within the meaning of Section 13 of the Exchange Act), without duplication, on such day (or, to the extent that for any reason the equivalent calculation under Section 16 of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder results in a higher number, such higher number) and (B) the denominator of which is the number of Shares outstanding on such day.

In addition, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if any delivery owed to Party A hereunder is not made, in whole or in part, as a result of the immediately preceding paragraph, Party A shall be permitted to make any payment due in respect of such Shares to Party B in two or more tranches that correspond in amount to the number of Shares delivered by Party B to Party A pursuant to the immediately preceding paragraph.

------

<u>Other Forward Transactions</u>:

Party A acknowledges that Party B has entered into or may enter in the future into one or more forward transactions on the Shares (each, an "Other Forward" and, collectively, the "Other Forwards") with one or more forward purchasers. Party A and Party B agree that if Party B designates a "Settlement Date" (or equivalent concept) with respect to one or more Other Forwards for which "Cash Settlement" (or equivalent concept) or "Net Share Settlement" (or equivalent concept) is applicable, and the resulting "Unwind Period" (or equivalent concept) for such Other Forward(s) coincides for any period of time with an Unwind Period (the "Overlap Unwind Period"), Party B shall notify Party A at least one Scheduled Trading Day prior to the commencement of such Overlap Unwind Period of the first Scheduled Trading Day and the length of such Overlap Unwind Period, and Party A shall be permitted to purchase Shares to unwind its hedge in respect of the Transaction only on alternating Scheduled Trading Days during such Overlap Unwind Period, as notified to Party A by Party B at least one Exchange Business Day prior to such Overlap Unwind Period (which alternating Scheduled Trading Days, for the avoidance of doubt, shall be every other Scheduled Trading Day if there is only one Other Forward, every third Scheduled Trading Day if there are two Other Forwards, etc.).

<u>Wall Street Transparency and Accountability Act</u>:

In connection with Section 739 of the Wall Street Transparency and Accountability Act of 2010 (the "WSTAA"), the parties hereby agree that neither the enactment of the WSTAA or any regulation under the WSTAA, nor any requirement under the WSTAA or an amendment made by the WSTAA, shall limit or otherwise impair either party's otherwise applicable rights to terminate, renegotiate, modify, amend or supplement this Forward Confirmation or the Agreement, as applicable, arising from a termination event, force majeure, illegality, increased costs, regulatory change or similar event under this Forward Confirmation, the 2002 Definitions incorporated herein or the Agreement (including, but not limited to, rights arising from any Acceleration Event or Illegality (as defined in the Agreement)).

<u>Communications with Employees of J.P. Morgan Securities LLC</u>:

If Counterparty interacts with any employee of J.P. Morgan Securities LLC with respect to the Transaction, Counterparty is hereby notified that such employee will act solely as an authorized representative of JPMorgan Chase Bank, National Association (and not as a representative of J.P. Morgan Securities LLC) in connection with the Transaction.

Maryland, and is an exempt recipient under Treasury Regulation Section 1.6049-4(c)(1)(ii)(A).

**<u>ANNEX A</u>**

**PRIVATE PLACEMENT PROCEDURES** 

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

(ii) If Party B delivers any Restricted Shares in respect of the Transaction, unless it is advised in writing by
outside counsel that any of the following actions would violate applicable securities laws because of a change in law or a change in the policy of the Securities and Exchange Commission or its staff occurring after the date hereof, Party B agrees
that (i) such Shares may be transferred by and among Party A and its affiliates and (ii) after the minimum "holding period" within the meaning of Rule 144(d) under the Securities Act has elapsed after the applicable Settlement
Date, Party B shall promptly remove, or cause the transfer agent for the Shares to remove, any legends referring to any transfer restrictions from such Shares upon delivery by Party A (or such affiliate of Party A) to Party B or such transfer agent
of seller's and broker's representation letters customarily delivered by Party A or its affiliates in connection with resales of restricted securities pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act, each without any further requirement for
the delivery of any certificate, consent, agreement, opinion of counsel, notice or any other document, any transfer tax stamps or payment of any other amount or any other action by Party A (or such affiliate of Party A).

The parties hereby agree that no transaction other than the Transaction to which this Forward Confirmation relates shall be governed by the Agreement. For purposes of the 2002 Definitions, the Transaction shall be a Share Forward Transaction.

Party A and Party B each represents to the other that it has entered into the Transaction in reliance upon such tax, accounting, regulatory, legal, and financial advice as it deems necessary and not upon any view expressed by the other.

| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Cash Settlement: | On any Settlement Date in respect of which Cash Settlement applies, if the Cash Settlement Amount for such Settlement Date is a positive number, Party A will pay such Cash Settlement Amount to Party B.

If, on any Settlement Date, the Shares to be delivered by Party B or Party A hereunder upon Net Share Settlement are not so delivered (the "Net Share Deferred Shares"), and a Forward Price Reduction Date occurs during the period from, and including, such Settlement Date to, but excluding, the date such Shares are actually delivered to such party, then the portion of the Net Share Settlement Shares deliverable by Party A or Party B in respect of the Net Share Deferred Shares shall be adjusted by the Calculation Agent to reflect the occurrence of such Forward Price Reduction Amount for such Forward Price Reduction Date. To the extent Party A is obligated to deliver Shares under the Transaction, the Representation and Agreement contained in Section 9.11 of the 2002 Definitions shall be modified by excluding any representations therein relating to restrictions, obligations, limitations or requirements under applicable securities laws that exist as a result of the fact that Party B is the issuer of the Shares. |

The Calculation Agent shall notify Party B prior to making any such adjustment to such Forward Price and, upon the request of Party B, Party A shall provide an itemized list of the Stock Loan Fees for the applicable ten Scheduled Trading Day period. |

<u>Representations and Agreements of Party B</u>:

Party B (i) has such knowledge and experience in financial and business affairs as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of entering into the Transaction; (ii) has consulted with its own legal, financial, accounting and tax advisors in connection with the Transaction; and (iii) is entering into the Transaction for a bona fide business purpose.

<u>Additional Representations, Warranties and Agreements of Party B</u>: Party B hereby represents and warrants to, and agrees with, Party A as of the date hereof that:

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Board of Directors of Party B has adopted resolutions reserving and keeping available at all times, free
from preemptive rights, out of Party B's authorized but unissued Shares, solely for the purpose of issuance upon settlement of the Transactions as herein provided, the full number of Shares as may be issuable upon settlement of the Transaction.
All Shares so issuable shall, upon such issuance, be accepted for listing or quotation on the Exchange. Party B shall have submitted an application for the listing on the Exchange of the Forward Shares as may be issuable upon settlement of the
Transaction, and such application and listing shall have been approved by the Exchange, subject only to official notice of issuance, in each case, on or prior to the Effective Date.

Party B agrees and acknowledges that such submission and approval shall be a condition precedent for the purpose of Section 2(a)(iii) of the Agreement with respect to each obligation of Party A under Section 2(a)(i) of the Agreement in respect of the Transaction.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Party B agrees to provide Party A at least ten Scheduled Trading Days written notice (an "Issuer
Repurchase Notice") prior to executing any repurchase of Shares by Party B or any of its subsidiaries (or entering into any contract that would require, or give the option to, Party B or any of its subsidiaries, to purchase or repurchase
Shares), whether out of profits or capital or whether the consideration for such repurchase is cash, securities or otherwise (an "Issuer Repurchase"), that alone or in the aggregate would result in the Base Amount Percentage (as defined
below) being greater by 0.5% or more than the Base

------

Amount Percentage at the time of the immediately preceding Issuer Repurchase Notice (or in the case of the first such Issuer Repurchase Notice, greater than the Base Amount Percentage as of the date hereof). The "Base Amount Percentage" as of any day is the fraction (1) the numerator of which is the sum of the Base Amount and equivalent term under any other share forward transaction between Party A and Party B and (2) the denominator of which is the number of Shares outstanding on such day.

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Party B agrees not to make any Issuer Repurchase if, immediately following such Issuer Repurchase, the Base
Amount Percentage would be equal to or greater than 8.0%.

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) Neither Party B nor any of its affiliates shall take or refrain from taking any action (including, without
limitation, any direct purchases by Party B or any of its affiliates or any purchases by a party to a derivative transaction with Party B or any of its affiliates), either under this Forward Confirmation, under an agreement with another party or
otherwise, that might cause any purchases of Shares by Party A or any of its affiliates in connection with any Cash Settlement or Net Share Settlement hereunder not to meet the requirements of the safe harbor provided by Rule 10b-18 under the Exchange Act if such purchases were made by Party B and Rule 10b-18 were applicable to such purchases.

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Party B is an "eligible contract participant" (as such term is defined in Section 1a(18) of the
Commodity Exchange Act, as amended).

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

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(k) Party B (i) is capable of evaluating investment risks independently, both in general and with regard to
all transactions and investment strategies involving a security or securities; (ii) will exercise independent judgment in evaluating the recommendations of any broker-dealer or its associated persons, unless it has otherwise notified the
broker-dealer in writing; and (iii) has total assets of at least USD 50 million.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(l) Party B agrees it will not treat ownership positions held by Party A or any of its affiliates solely in its (or
their) capacity as a nominee or fiduciary for unrelated persons as constituting Beneficial or Constructive Ownership (as such terms are defined in Party B's Articles of Amendment or Articles of Incorporation, as amended from time to time) by
Party A.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(m) Party B acknowledges and agrees that:

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Party A and its affiliates may also be active in the market for the Shares and Share-linked transactions other
than in connection with hedging activities in relation to the Transaction;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) Party A shall make its own determination as to whether, when or in what manner any hedging or market activities
in Party B's securities shall be conducted and shall do so in a manner that it deems appropriate to hedge its price and market risk with respect to the Forward Price for the Transaction and the 10b-18 VWAP for the Transaction;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) any market activities of Party A and its affiliates with respect to the Shares may affect the market price and
volatility of the Shares, as well as the Forward Price for the Transaction and 10b-18 VWAP for the Transaction, each in a manner that may be adverse to Party B; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) the Transaction is a derivatives transaction in which it has granted Party A the right, under certain
circumstances, to receive cash or Shares, as the case may be; Party A may purchase Shares for its own account at an average price that may be greater than, or less than, the effective price paid by Party B under the terms of the Transaction.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(n) Party B has not applied for or received a loan, loan guarantee, direct loan (as that term is defined in the
Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (the "CARES Act")) or other investment, or any financial assistance or relief under any program or facility (collectively "Financial Assistance") that (a) is established
under applicable law, including without limitation the CARES Act and the

------

Federal Reserve Act, as amended, and (b) (i) would preclude or limit, as a condition to such Financial Assistance or otherwise, Party B's ability to enter into, exercise its rights or perform its obligations under the Transaction (including in connection with any Cash Settlement or Net Share Settlement) or (ii) for which the terms of the Transaction would cause Party B to fail to satisfy any condition for application for or receipt or retention of the Financial Assistance and it acknowledges that entering into the Transaction may limit its ability to receive any such Financial Assistance.

<u>Covenant of Party B</u>:

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

<u>Covenants of Party A</u>:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Unless the provisions set forth below under "Private Placement Procedures" shall be applicable, Party

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

<u>Insolvency Filing</u>:

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the Agreement or in the Definitions, upon any Insolvency Filing in respect of the Issuer, the Transaction shall automatically terminate on the date thereof without further liability of either party to this Forward Confirmation to the other party (except for any liability in respect of any breach of representation or covenant by a party under this Forward Confirmation prior to the date of such Insolvency Filing).

------

<u>Extraordinary Dividends</u>:

If an ex-dividend date for an Extraordinary Dividend occurs on or after the Trade Date and on or prior to the Maturity Date (or, if later, the last date on which Shares are delivered by Party B to Party A in settlement of the Transaction), Party B shall pay an amount, as determined by the Calculation Agent, in cash equal to the product of such Extraordinary Dividend and the Base Amount to Party A on the earlier of (i) the date on which such Extraordinary Dividend is paid by the Issuer to holders of record of the Shares or (ii) the Maturity Date. "Extraordinary Dividend" means the per Share amount of any cash dividend or distribution, or a portion thereof, declared by the Issuer with respect to the Shares that is specified by the board of directors of the Issuer as an "extraordinary" dividend.

<u>Acceleration Events</u>:

The following events shall each constitute an "Acceleration Event" with respect to the Transaction:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) *Stock Borrow Events .* In the good faith, commercially reasonable judgment of Party A
(i) Party A (or its affiliate) is unable to hedge Party A's exposure to the Transaction because of the lack of sufficient Shares being made available for Share borrowing by lenders, or (ii) Party A (or its affiliate) would incur a
Stock Loan Fee to borrow a number of Shares equal to the Base Amount of more than a rate equal to the Maximum Specified Borrow Rate (as defined below) (each such event, a "Stock Borrow Event");

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) *ISDA Early Termination Date.* Party A has the right to designate an Early Termination Date pursuant to
Section 6 of the Agreement;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) *Other ISDA Events.* The announcement of any event that if consummated, would result in an Extraordinary
Event or the occurrence of any Change in Law or a Delisting; provided that in case of a Delisting, in addition to the provisions of Section 12.6(a)(iii) of the 2002 Definitions, it will also constitute a Delisting if the Exchange is located in
the United States and the Shares are not immediately re-listed, re-traded or re-quoted on any of the New York Stock Exchange, the
Nasdaq Global Select Market or the Nasdaq Global Market (or their respective successors); and provided further that the definition of "Change in Law" provided in Section 12.9(a)(ii) of the 2002 Definitions is hereby amended by
(i) replacing the phrase "the interpretation" in the third line thereof with the phrase ", or public announcement of, the formal or informal interpretation", (ii) replacing the parenthetical beginning after the word
"regulation" in the second line thereof with the words "(including, for the avoidance of doubt and without limitation, (x) any tax law or (y) adoption, effectiveness or promulgation of new regulations authorized or mandated
by existing statute)" and (iii) immediately following the word "Transaction" in clause (X) thereof, adding the phrase "in the manner contemplated by Party A on the Forward Date for such Transaction"; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) *Ownership Event.* In the good faith, reasonable judgment of Party A, on any day, the Share Amount (as
defined below) for such day exceeds the Post-Effective Limit (as defined below) for such day (if any applies) (such event, an "Ownership Event").

The "Maximum Specified Borrow Rate" shall be 200 basis points per annum.

The "Share Amount" as of any day is the number of Shares that Party A and any person whose ownership position would be aggregated with that of Party A, including any "group" (within the meaning of Section 13 of the Exchange Act) of which Party A is or may be deemed to be a part (Party A or any such person, a "Party A Person") under any law, rule, regulation, regulatory order or organizational documents or contracts of Party B that are, in each case, applicable to ownership of Shares ("Applicable Restrictions"), owns, beneficially owns, constructively owns, controls, holds the power to vote or otherwise meets a relevant definition of ownership of under any Applicable Restriction, as determined by Party A in its reasonable discretion.

The "Post-Effective Limit" means a number of Shares equal to (x) the minimum number of Shares that could reasonably be expected to give rise to reporting or registration obligations or other requirements (including obtaining prior approval from any person or entity) of a Party A Person, or could reasonably be expected to result in an adverse effect on a Party A Person, under any Applicable Restriction, in each case as determined by Party A in its reasonable discretion, *minus* (y) 1% of the number of Shares outstanding.

<u>Termination Settlement</u>:

Upon the occurrence of any Acceleration Event, Party A shall have the right to designate, upon at least one Scheduled Trading Day's notice, any Scheduled Trading Day following such occurrence to be a Settlement Date (a "Termination Settlement Date") to which Physical Settlement shall apply, and to select the number of Settlement Shares relating to such Termination Settlement Date; provided that (i) in the case of an Acceleration Event arising out of an Ownership Event, the number of Settlement Shares so designated by Party A shall not exceed the number of Shares necessary to reduce the Share Amount to the Post-Effective Limit and

------

(ii) in the case of an Acceleration Event arising out of a Stock Borrow Event the number of Settlement Shares so designated by Party A shall not exceed the number of Shares as to which such Stock Borrow Event exists. If, upon designation of a Termination Settlement Date by Party A pursuant to the preceding sentence, Party B fails to deliver the Settlement Shares relating to such Termination Settlement Date when due or otherwise fails to perform obligations within its control in respect of the Transaction, it shall be an Event of Default with respect to Party B and Section 6 of the Agreement shall apply. If an Acceleration Event occurs during an Unwind Period relating to a number of Settlement Shares to which Cash Settlement or Net Share Settlement applies, then on the Termination Settlement Date relating to such Acceleration Event, notwithstanding any election to the contrary by Party B, Cash Settlement or Net Share Settlement shall apply to the portion of such Settlement Shares relating to such Unwind Period as to which Party A has unwound its hedge and Physical Settlement shall apply in respect of (x) the remainder (if any) of such Settlement Shares and (y) the Settlement Shares designated by Party A in respect of such Termination Settlement Date. Under no circumstances will Party A be entitled to an adjustment to the terms of the Transaction for the effects of an Extraordinary Dividend (other than as set forth above under the heading "Extraordinary Dividends") or a change in expected dividends.

<u>Private Placement Procedures</u>:

If Party B is unable to comply with the provisions of "Covenant of Party B" above because of a change in law or a change in the policy of the Securities and Exchange Commission or its staff, or Party A otherwise determines that in its reasonable opinion any Settlement Shares to be delivered to Party A by Party B may not be freely returned by Party A or its affiliates to securities lenders as described under "Covenant of Party B" above, then delivery of any such Settlement Shares (the "Restricted Shares") shall be effected pursuant to Annex A hereto, unless waived by Party A; provided that Party A may not otherwise determine that the Settlement Shares are Restricted Shares based solely upon Party A (or its affiliates) not having borrowed a number of Shares equal to the Base Amount on or before the Effective Date if there has been no change in law or change in the policy of the Securities and Exchange Commission or its staff.

<u>Rule 10b5-1</u>:

It is the intent of Party A and Party B that following any election of Cash Settlement or Net Share Settlement by Party B, the purchase of Shares by Party A during any Unwind Period comply with the requirements of Rule 10b5-1(c)(1)(i)(B) of the Exchange Act and that this Forward Confirmation shall be interpreted to comply with the requirements of Rule 10b5-1(c).

Party B acknowledges that (i) during any Unwind Period, Party B does not have, and shall not attempt to exercise, any influence over how, when or whether to effect purchases of Shares by Party A (or its agent or affiliate) in connection with this Forward Confirmation and (ii) Party B is entering into the Agreement and this Forward Confirmation in good faith and not as part of a plan or scheme to evade compliance with federal securities laws including, without limitation, Rule 10b-5 promulgated under the Exchange Act.

------

Party B hereby agrees with Party A that, during any Unwind Period, Party B shall not communicate, directly or indirectly, any Material Non-Public Information (as defined below) to any EDG Personnel (as defined below), where "Material Non-Public Information" means information relating to Party B or the Shares that (a) has not been widely disseminated by wire service, in one or more newspapers of general circulation, by communication from Party B to its shareholders or in a press release, or contained in a public filing made by Party B with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or otherwise disseminated in a manner constituting "public disclosure" within the meaning of Regulation FD under the Exchange Act and (b) a reasonable investor might consider to be of importance in making an investment decision to buy, sell or hold Shares. For the avoidance of doubt and solely by way of illustration, information should be presumed "material" if it relates to such matters as dividend increases or decreases, earnings estimates, changes in previously released earnings estimates, significant expansion or curtailment of operations, a significant increase or decline in leasing activity, significant merger or acquisition proposals or agreements, extraordinary borrowing, major litigation, liquidity problems, extraordinary management developments, purchase or sale of substantial assets, or other similar information. "EDG Personnel" means any employee on the trading side of the Equity Derivatives Group of Party A and does not include any of Party A's "private side" equity or equity-linked personnel (including, without limitation, any Party A equity or equity-linked legal personnel) (or any other person or persons designated from time to time in writing to Party B by Party A).

<u>Maximum Share Delivery</u>:

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Forward Confirmation, in no event will Party B be required to deliver on any Settlement Date, whether pursuant to Physical Settlement, Net Share Settlement, Termination Settlement or any Private Placement Settlement, more than a number of Shares equal to the product of 2 *and* the initial Base Amount to Party A (the "Forward Shares"). In connection with any partial settlement of the Transaction, the Base Amount shall be subject to reduction by an amount equal to the product of 2 *and* the number of Settlement Shares for such partial settlement. The Forward Shares shall be subject to adjustment from time to time in accordance with the provisions of this Forward Confirmation and the 2002 Definitions.

<u>Transfer and Assignment</u>:

Party A may assign or transfer any of its rights or delegate any of its duties hereunder, without the prior written consent of Party B, to (i) any affiliate of Party A, whose obligations hereunder and under the Agreement are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Party A or (ii) any affiliate of Party A that has a rating for its long-term, unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness or a long-term issuer rating that is equal to or better than the rating for Party A's long-term, unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness or Party A's long-term issuer rating, as the case may be, at the time of such assignment or transfer so long as, in each case, at the time of such assignment or transfer (a) Party B will not, as a result of such assignment or transfer, be required to pay to such assignee or transferee an amount in respect of an Indemnifiable Tax under Section 2(d)(i)(4) of the Agreement greater than the amount in respect of which Party B would have been required to pay Party A in the absence of such assignment or transfer; (b) Party B will not, as a result of such assignment or transfer, receive a payment from which an amount has been

------

withheld or deducted on account of a Tax under Section 2(d)(i) of the Agreement in excess of that which Party A would have been required to so withhold or deduct in the absence of such assignment or transfer; and (c) no Event of Default, Potential Event of Default or Termination Event will occur as a result of such assignment or transfer. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Forward Confirmation to the contrary requiring or allowing Party A to purchase, sell, receive or deliver any Shares or other securities to or from Party B, Party A may designate any of its affiliates to purchase, sell, receive or deliver such Shares or other securities and otherwise to perform Party A's obligations in respect of the Transaction and any such designee may assume such obligations. Party A shall be discharged of its obligations to Party B to the extent of any such performance.

<u>Indemnity</u>:

Party B agrees to indemnify Party A and its affiliates and their respective directors, officers, agents and controlling parties (Party A and each such affiliate or person being an "Indemnified Party") from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities, joint and several, incurred by or asserted against such Indemnified Party arising out of, in connection with, or relating to, any breach of any covenant or representation made by Party B in this Forward Confirmation or the Agreement and will reimburse any Indemnified Party for all reasonable expenses (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) as they are incurred in connection with the investigation of, preparation for, or defense of any pending or threatened claim or any action or proceeding arising therefrom, whether or not such Indemnified Party is a party thereto. Party B will not be liable under this Indemnity paragraph to the extent that any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense is found in a final and nonappealable judgment by a court to have resulted from any Indemnified Party's gross negligence or willful misconduct.

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

<u>No Collateral or Setoff</u>:

Notwithstanding Section 6(f) or any other provision of the Agreement or any other agreement between the parties to the contrary, the obligations of Party B under the Transaction are not secured by any collateral. Obligations under the Transaction shall not be set off against any other obligations of the parties, whether arising under the Agreement, under this Forward Confirmation, under any other agreement between the parties hereto, by operation of law or otherwise, and no other obligations of the parties shall be set off against obligations under the Transaction, whether arising under the Agreement, under this Forward Confirmation, under any other agreement between the parties hereto, by operation of law or otherwise, and each party hereby waives any such right of setoff.

------

<u>Status of Claims in Bankruptcy</u>:

Party A acknowledges and agrees that this Forward Confirmation is not intended to convey to Party A rights with respect to the Transaction that are senior to the claims of common stockholders in any U.S. bankruptcy proceedings of Party B; provided, however*,* that nothing herein shall limit or shall be deemed to limit Party A's right to pursue remedies in the event of a breach by Party B of its obligations and agreements with respect to this Forward Confirmation and the Agreement; and provided further, that nothing herein shall limit or shall be deemed to limit Party A's rights in respect of any transaction other than the Transaction.

<u>Limit on Beneficial Ownership</u>:

Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, Party A shall not have the "right to acquire" (within the meaning of NYSE Rule 312.04(g)) Shares hereunder and Party A shall not be entitled to take delivery of any Shares deliverable hereunder in respect of the Transaction (in each case, whether in connection with the purchase of Shares on any Settlement Date or any Termination Settlement Date, any Private Placement Settlement or otherwise) to the extent (but only to the extent) that, after such receipt of any Shares hereunder, (i) the Share Amount would exceed the Post-Effective Limit, (ii) the Section 16 Percentage would exceed 7.5% or (iii) Party A and each person subject to aggregation of Shares with Party A under Section 13 or Section 16 of the Exchange Act and rules promulgated thereunder (the "Party A Group") would directly or indirectly beneficially own (as such term is defined for purposes of Section 13 or Section 16 of the Exchange Act and rules promulgated thereunder) in excess of the Threshold Number of Shares. Any purported delivery hereunder shall be void and have no effect to the extent (but only to the extent) that, after such delivery, (i) the Share Amount would exceed the Post-Effective Limit, (ii) the Section 16 Percentage would exceed 7.5% or (iii) Party A Group would directly or indirectly so beneficially own in excess of the Threshold Number of Shares. If any delivery owed to Party A hereunder is not made, in whole or in part, as a result of this provision, Party B's obligation to make such delivery shall not be extinguished and Party B shall make such delivery as promptly as practicable after, but in no event later than one Exchange Business Day after, Party A gives notice to Party B that, after such delivery, (i) the Share Amount would not exceed the Post-Effective Limit, (ii) the Section 16 Percentage would not exceed 7.5% and (iii) Party A Group would not directly or indirectly so beneficially own in excess of the Threshold Number of Shares. The "Threshold Number of Shares" means 2,290,154 Shares. The "Section 16 Percentage" as of any day is the fraction, expressed as a percentage, (A) the numerator of which is the number of Shares that Party A and any of its affiliates or any other person subject to aggregation with Party A for purposes of the "beneficial ownership" test under Section 13 of the Exchange Act, or any "group" (within the meaning of Section 13 of the Exchange Act) of which Party A is or may be deemed to be a part beneficially owns (within the meaning of Section 13 of the Exchange Act), without duplication, on such day (or, to the extent that for any reason the equivalent calculation under Section 16 of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder results in a higher number, such higher number) and (B) the denominator of which is the number of Shares outstanding on such day.

------

In addition, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if any delivery owed to Party A hereunder is not made, in whole or in part, as a result of the immediately preceding paragraph, Party A shall be permitted to make any payment due in respect of such Shares to Party B in two or more tranches that correspond in amount to the number of Shares delivered by Party B to Party A pursuant to the immediately preceding paragraph.

<u>Other Forward Transactions</u>:

Party A acknowledges that Party B has entered into or may enter in the future into one or more forward transactions on the Shares (each, an "Other Forward" and, collectively, the "Other Forwards") with one or more forward purchasers. Party A and Party B agree that if Party B designates a "Settlement Date" (or equivalent concept) with respect to one or more Other Forwards for which "Cash Settlement" (or equivalent concept) or "Net Share Settlement" (or equivalent concept) is applicable, and the resulting "Unwind Period" (or equivalent concept) for such Other Forward(s) coincides for any period of time with an Unwind Period (the "Overlap Unwind Period"), Party B shall notify Party A at least one Scheduled Trading Day prior to the commencement of such Overlap Unwind Period of the first Scheduled Trading Day and the length of such Overlap Unwind Period, and Party A shall be permitted to purchase Shares to unwind its hedge in respect of the Transaction only on alternating Scheduled Trading Days during such Overlap Unwind Period, as notified to Party A by Party B at least one Exchange Business Day prior to such Overlap Unwind Period (which alternating Scheduled Trading Days, for the avoidance of doubt, shall be every other Scheduled Trading Day if there is only one Other Forward, every third Scheduled Trading Day if there are two Other Forwards, etc.).

<u>Wall Street Transparency and Accountability Act</u>:

In connection with Section 739 of the Wall Street Transparency and Accountability Act of 2010 (the "WSTAA"), the parties hereby agree that neither the enactment of the WSTAA or any regulation under the WSTAA, nor any requirement under the WSTAA or an amendment made by the WSTAA, shall limit or otherwise impair either party's otherwise applicable rights to terminate, renegotiate, modify, amend or supplement this Forward Confirmation or the Agreement, as applicable, arising from a termination event, force majeure, illegality, increased costs, regulatory change or similar event under this Forward Confirmation, the 2002 Definitions incorporated herein or the Agreement (including, but not limited to, rights arising from any Acceleration Event or Illegality (as defined in the Agreement)).

**<u>ANNEX A</u>**

**PRIVATE PLACEMENT PROCEDURES** 

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

(ii) If Party B delivers any Restricted Shares in respect of the Transaction, unless it is advised in writing by
outside counsel that any of the following actions would violate applicable securities laws because of a change in law or a change in the policy of the Securities and Exchange Commission or its staff occurring after the date hereof, Party B agrees
that (i) such Shares may be transferred by and among Party A and its affiliates and (ii) after the minimum "holding period" within the meaning of Rule 144(d) under the Securities Act has elapsed after the applicable Settlement
Date, Party B shall promptly remove, or cause the transfer agent for the Shares to remove, any legends referring to any transfer restrictions from such Shares upon delivery by Party A (or such affiliate of Party A) to Party B or such transfer agent
of seller's and broker's representation letters customarily delivered by Party A or its affiliates in connection with resales of restricted securities pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act, each without any further requirement for
the delivery of any certificate, consent, agreement, opinion of counsel, notice or any other document, any transfer tax stamps or payment of any other amount or any other action by Party A (or such affiliate of Party A).

| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Cash Settlement<br> Amount: | For any Settlement Date in respect of which Cash Settlement applies, an amount determined by the Calculation Agent equal to the difference between (1) the product of (i) (A) the average Forward Price over the period beginning on, and including, the date that is one Settlement Cycle following the first day of the applicable Unwind Period and ending on, and including, such Settlement Date (calculated assuming no reduction to such Forward Price for any Forward Price Reduction Date that occurs during such Unwind Period, except as set forth in clause (2) below), minus USD 0.03, minus (B) the average of the 10b-18 VWAP prices per Share on each Exchange Business Day during such Unwind Period, and (ii) the number of Settlement Shares for such Settlement Date, and (2) the product of (i) the Forward Price Reduction Amount for any Forward Price Reduction Date that occurs during such Unwind Period and (ii) the number of Settlement Shares with respect to which Party A has not unwound its hedge as of such Forward Price Reduction Date. |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Net Share Settlement: | On any Settlement Date in respect of which Net Share Settlement applies, if the number of Net Share Settlement Shares is a (i) negative number, Party A shall deliver a number of Shares to Party B equal to the absolute value of such Net Share Settlement Shares, or (ii) positive number, Party B shall deliver to Party A such Net Share Settlement Shares; provided that if Party A determines in its good faith, commercially reasonable judgment that it would be required to deliver Net Share Settlement Shares to Party B, Party A may elect to deliver a portion of such Net Share Settlement Shares on one or more dates prior to the applicable Settlement Date. If, on any |

|  | Settlement Date, the Shares to be delivered by Party B or Party A hereunder upon Net Share Settlement are not so delivered (the "Net Share Deferred Shares"), and a Forward Price Reduction Date occurs during the period from, and including, such Settlement Date to, but excluding, the date such Shares are actually delivered to such party, then the portion of the Net Share Settlement Shares deliverable by Party A or Party B in respect of the Net Share Deferred Shares shall be adjusted by the Calculation Agent to reflect the occurrence of such Forward Price Reduction Amount for such Forward Price Reduction Date. To the extent Party A is obligated to deliver Shares under the Transaction, the Representation and Agreement contained in Section 9.11 of the 2002 Definitions shall be modified by excluding any representations therein relating to restrictions, obligations, limitations or requirements under applicable securities laws that exist as a result of the fact that Party B is the issuer of the Shares. |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Net Share Settlement<br> Shares: | For any Settlement Date in respect of which Net Share Settlement applies, a number of Shares equal to (a) the number of Settlement Shares for such Settlement Date, minus (b) the number of Shares Party A actually purchases during the Unwind Period for a total purchase price (the "Net Share Settlement Purchase Price") equal to the difference between (1) the product of (i) the average Forward Price over the period beginning on, and including, the date that is one Settlement Cycle following the first day of the applicable Unwind Period and ending on, and including, such Settlement Date (calculated assuming no reduction to such Forward Price for any Forward Price Reduction Date that occurs during such Unwind Period, except as set forth in clause (2) below), minus USD 0.02, and (ii) the number of Settlement Shares for such Settlement Date, minus (2) the product of (i) the Forward Price Reduction Amount for any Forward Price Reduction Date that occurs during such Unwind Period, and (ii) the number of Shares with respect to which Party A has not unwound its hedge as of such Forward Price Reduction Date. |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 10b-18 VWAP: | For any Exchange Business Day during an Unwind Period that is not a Suspension Day, the volume-weighted average price at which the Shares trade as reported in the composite transactions for the Exchange on such Exchange Business Day, excluding (i) trades that do not settle regular way, (ii) opening (regular way) reported trades on the Exchange on such Exchange Business Day, (iii) trades that occur in the last ten minutes before the scheduled close of trading on the Exchange on such Exchange |

Party B agrees and acknowledges that such submission and approval shall be a condition precedent for the purpose of Section 2(a)(iii) of the Agreement with respect to each obligation of Party A under Section 2(a)(i) of the Agreement in respect of the Transaction.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Party B agrees to provide Party A at least ten Scheduled Trading Days written notice (an "Issuer
Repurchase Notice") prior to executing any repurchase of Shares by Party B or any of its subsidiaries (or entering into any contract that would require, or give the option to, Party B or any of its subsidiaries, to purchase or repurchase
Shares), whether out of profits or capital or whether the consideration for such repurchase is cash, securities or otherwise (an "Issuer Repurchase"), that alone or in the aggregate would result in the Base Amount Percentage (as defined
below) being greater by 0.5% or more than the Base

------

Amount Percentage at the time of the immediately preceding Issuer Repurchase Notice (or in the case of the first such Issuer Repurchase Notice, greater than the Base Amount Percentage as of the date hereof). The "Base Amount Percentage" as of any day is the fraction (1) the numerator of which is the sum of the Base Amount and equivalent term under any other share forward transaction between Party A and Party B and (2) the denominator of which is the number of Shares outstanding on such day.

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Party B agrees not to make any Issuer Repurchase if, immediately following such Issuer Repurchase, the Base
Amount Percentage would be equal to or greater than 8.0%.

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) Neither Party B nor any of its affiliates shall take or refrain from taking any action (including, without
limitation, any direct purchases by Party B or any of its affiliates or any purchases by a party to a derivative transaction with Party B or any of its affiliates), either under this Forward Confirmation, under an agreement with another party or
otherwise, that might cause any purchases of Shares by Party A or any of its affiliates in connection with any Cash Settlement or Net Share Settlement hereunder not to meet the requirements of the safe harbor provided by Rule 10b-18 under the Exchange Act if such purchases were made by Party B and Rule 10b-18 were applicable to such purchases.

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Party B is an "eligible contract participant" (as such term is defined in Section 1a(18) of the
Commodity Exchange Act, as amended).

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

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(k) Party B (i) is capable of evaluating investment risks independently, both in general and with regard to
all transactions and investment strategies involving a security or securities; (ii) will exercise independent judgment in evaluating the recommendations of any broker-dealer or its associated persons, unless it has otherwise notified the
broker-dealer in writing; and (iii) has total assets of at least USD 50 million.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(l) Party B agrees it will not treat ownership positions held by Party A or any of its affiliates solely in its (or
their) capacity as a nominee or fiduciary for unrelated persons as constituting Beneficial or Constructive Ownership (as such terms are defined in Party B's Articles of Amendment or Articles of Incorporation, as amended from time to time) by
Party A.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(m) Party B acknowledges and agrees that:

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Party A and its affiliates may also be active in the market for the Shares and Share-linked transactions other
than in connection with hedging activities in relation to the Transaction;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) Party A shall make its own determination as to whether, when or in what manner any hedging or market activities
in Party B's securities shall be conducted and shall do so in a manner that it deems appropriate to hedge its price and market risk with respect to the Forward Price for the Transaction and the 10b-18 VWAP for the Transaction;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) any market activities of Party A and its affiliates with respect to the Shares may affect the market price and
volatility of the Shares, as well as the Forward Price for the Transaction and 10b-18 VWAP for the Transaction, each in a manner that may be adverse to Party B; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) the Transaction is a derivatives transaction in which it has granted Party A the right, under certain
circumstances, to receive cash or Shares, as the case may be; Party A may purchase Shares for its own account at an average price that may be greater than, or less than, the effective price paid by Party B under the terms of the Transaction.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(n) Party B has not applied for or received a loan, loan guarantee, direct loan (as that term is defined in the
Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (the "CARES Act")) or other investment, or any financial assistance or relief under any program or facility (collectively "Financial Assistance") that (a) is established
under applicable law, including without limitation the CARES Act and the

------

Federal Reserve Act, as amended, and (b) (i) would preclude or limit, as a condition to such Financial Assistance or otherwise, Party B's ability to enter into, exercise its rights or perform its obligations under the Transaction (including in connection with any Cash Settlement or Net Share Settlement) or (ii) for which the terms of the Transaction would cause Party B to fail to satisfy any condition for application for or receipt or retention of the Financial Assistance and it acknowledges that entering into the Transaction may limit its ability to receive any such Financial Assistance.

<u>Covenant of Party B</u>:

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

<u>Covenants of Party A</u>:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Unless the provisions set forth below under "Private Placement Procedures" shall be applicable, Party

hedging activities related to Party A's exposure under this Forward Confirmation.

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

<u>Insolvency Filing</u>:

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the Agreement or in the Definitions, upon any Insolvency Filing in respect of the Issuer, the Transaction shall automatically terminate on the date thereof without further liability of either party to this Forward Confirmation to the other party (except for any liability in respect of any breach of representation or covenant by a party under this Forward Confirmation prior to the date of such Insolvency Filing).

------

<u>Extraordinary Dividends</u>:

If an ex-dividend date for an Extraordinary Dividend occurs on or after the Trade Date and on or prior to the Maturity Date (or, if later, the last date on which Shares are delivered by Party B to Party A in settlement of the Transaction), Party B shall pay an amount, as determined by the Calculation Agent, in cash equal to the product of such Extraordinary Dividend and the Base Amount to Party A on the earlier of (i) the date on which such Extraordinary Dividend is paid by the Issuer to holders of record of the Shares or (ii) the Maturity Date. "Extraordinary Dividend" means the per Share amount of any cash dividend or distribution, or a portion thereof, declared by the Issuer with respect to the Shares that is specified by the board of directors of the Issuer as an "extraordinary" dividend.

<u>Acceleration Events</u>:

The following events shall each constitute an "Acceleration Event" with respect to the Transaction:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) *Stock Borrow Events*. In the good faith, commercially reasonable judgment of Party A (i) Party A (or
its affiliate) is unable to hedge Party A's exposure to the Transaction because of the lack of sufficient Shares being made available for Share borrowing by lenders, or (ii) Party A (or its affiliate) would incur a Stock Loan Fee to borrow
a number of Shares equal to the Base Amount of more than a rate equal to the Maximum Specified Borrow Rate (as defined below) (each such event, a "Stock Borrow Event");

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) *ISDA Early Termination Date*. Party A has the right to designate an Early Termination Date pursuant to
Section 6 of the Agreement;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) *Other ISDA Events*. The announcement of any event that if consummated, would result in an Extraordinary
Event or the occurrence of any Change in Law or a Delisting; provided that in case of a Delisting, in addition to the provisions of Section 12.6(a)(iii) of the 2002 Definitions, it will also constitute a Delisting if the

------

Exchange is located in the United States and the Shares are not immediately re-listed, re-traded or re-quoted on any of the New York Stock Exchange, the Nasdaq Global Select Market or the Nasdaq Global Market (or their respective successors); and provided further that the definition of "Change in Law" provided in Section 12.9(a)(ii) of the 2002 Definitions is hereby amended by (i) replacing the phrase "the interpretation" in the third line thereof with the phrase ", or public announcement of, the formal or informal interpretation", (ii) replacing the parenthetical beginning after the word "regulation" in the second line thereof with the words "(including, for the avoidance of doubt and without limitation, (x) any tax law or (y) adoption, effectiveness or promulgation of new regulations authorized or mandated by existing statute)" and (iii) immediately following the word "Transaction" in clause (X) thereof, adding the phrase "in the manner contemplated by Party A on the Forward Date for such Transaction"; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) *Ownership Event*. In the good faith, reasonable judgment of Party A, on any day, the Share Amount (as
defined below) for such day exceeds the Post-Effective Limit (as defined below) for such day (if any applies) (such event, an "Ownership Event").

The "Maximum Specified Borrow Rate" shall be 200 basis points per annum.

The "Share Amount" as of any day is the number of Shares that Party A and any person whose ownership position would be aggregated with that of Party A, including any "group" (within the meaning of Section 13 of the Exchange Act) of which Party A is or may be deemed to be a part (Party A or any such person, a "Party A Person") under any law, rule, regulation, regulatory order or organizational documents or contracts of Party B that are, in each case, applicable to ownership of Shares ("Applicable Restrictions"), owns, beneficially owns, constructively owns, controls, holds the power to vote or otherwise meets a relevant definition of ownership of under any Applicable Restriction, as determined by Party A in its reasonable discretion.

The "Post-Effective Limit" means a number of Shares equal to (x) the minimum number of Shares that could reasonably be expected to give rise to reporting or registration obligations or other requirements (including obtaining prior approval from any person or entity) of a Party A Person, or could reasonably be expected to result in an adverse effect on a Party A Person, under any Applicable Restriction, in each case as determined by Party A in its reasonable discretion, *minus* (y) 1% of the number of Shares outstanding.

<u>Termination Settlement</u>:

Upon the occurrence of any Acceleration Event, Party A shall have the right to designate, upon at least one Scheduled Trading Day's notice, any Scheduled Trading Day following such occurrence to be a Settlement Date (a "Termination Settlement Date") to which Physical Settlement shall apply, and to select the number of Settlement Shares relating to such Termination Settlement Date; provided that (i) in the case of an Acceleration Event arising out of an Ownership Event, the number of Settlement Shares so designated by Party A shall not exceed the number of Shares necessary to reduce the Share Amount to the Post-Effective Limit and

------

(ii) in the case of an Acceleration Event arising out of a Stock Borrow Event the number of Settlement Shares so designated by Party A shall not exceed the number of Shares as to which such Stock Borrow Event exists. If, upon designation of a Termination Settlement Date by Party A pursuant to the preceding sentence, Party B fails to deliver the Settlement Shares relating to such Termination Settlement Date when due or otherwise fails to perform obligations within its control in respect of the Transaction, it shall be an Event of Default with respect to Party B and Section 6 of the Agreement shall apply. If an Acceleration Event occurs during an Unwind Period relating to a number of Settlement Shares to which Cash Settlement or Net Share Settlement applies, then on the Termination Settlement Date relating to such Acceleration Event, notwithstanding any election to the contrary by Party B, Cash Settlement or Net Share Settlement shall apply to the portion of such Settlement Shares relating to such Unwind Period as to which Party A has unwound its hedge and Physical Settlement shall apply in respect of (x) the remainder (if any) of such Settlement Shares and (y) the Settlement Shares designated by Party A in respect of such Termination Settlement Date. Under no circumstances will Party A be entitled to an adjustment to the terms of the Transaction for the effects of an Extraordinary Dividend (other than as set forth above under the heading "Extraordinary Dividends") or a change in expected dividends.

<u>Private Placement Procedures</u>:

If Party B is unable to comply with the provisions of "Covenant of Party B" above because of a change in law or a change in the policy of the Securities and Exchange Commission or its staff, or Party A otherwise determines that in its reasonable opinion any Settlement Shares to be delivered to Party A by Party B may not be freely returned by Party A or its affiliates to securities lenders as described under "Covenant of Party B" above, then delivery of any such Settlement Shares (the "Restricted Shares") shall be effected pursuant to Annex A hereto, unless waived by Party A; provided that Party A may not otherwise determine that the Settlement Shares are Restricted Shares based solely upon Party A (or its affiliates) not having borrowed a number of Shares equal to the Base Amount on or before the Effective Date if there has been no change in law or change in the policy of the Securities and Exchange Commission or its staff.

<u>Rule 10b5-1</u>:

It is the intent of Party A and Party B that following any election of Cash Settlement or Net Share Settlement by Party B, the purchase of Shares by Party A during any Unwind Period comply with the requirements of Rule 10b5-1(c)(1)(i)(B) of the Exchange Act and that this Forward Confirmation shall be interpreted to comply with the requirements of Rule 10b5-1(c).

Party B acknowledges that (i) during any Unwind Period, Party B does not have, and shall not attempt to exercise, any influence over how, when or whether to effect purchases of Shares by Party A (or its agent or affiliate) in connection with this Forward Confirmation and (ii) Party B is entering into the Agreement and this Forward Confirmation in good faith and not as part of a plan or scheme to evade compliance with federal securities laws including, without limitation, Rule 10b-5 promulgated under the Exchange Act.

------

Party B hereby agrees with Party A that, during any Unwind Period, Party B shall not communicate, directly or indirectly, any Material Non-Public Information (as defined below) to any EDG Personnel (as defined below), where "Material Non-Public Information" means information relating to Party B or the Shares that (a) has not been widely disseminated by wire service, in one or more newspapers of general circulation, by communication from Party B to its shareholders or in a press release, or contained in a public filing made by Party B with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or otherwise disseminated in a manner constituting "public disclosure" within the meaning of Regulation FD under the Exchange Act and (b) a reasonable investor might consider to be of importance in making an investment decision to buy, sell or hold Shares. For the avoidance of doubt and solely by way of illustration, information should be presumed "material" if it relates to such matters as dividend increases or decreases, earnings estimates, changes in previously released earnings estimates, significant expansion or curtailment of operations, a significant increase or decline in leasing activity, significant merger or acquisition proposals or agreements, extraordinary borrowing, major litigation, liquidity problems, extraordinary management developments, purchase or sale of substantial assets, or other similar information. "EDG Personnel" means any employee on the trading side of the Equity Derivatives Group of Party A and does not include any of Party A's "private side" equity or equity-linked personnel (including, without limitation, any Party A equity or equity-linked legal personnel) (or any other person or persons designated from time to time in writing to Party B by Party A).

<u>Maximum Share Delivery</u>:

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Forward Confirmation, in no event will Party B be required to deliver on any Settlement Date, whether pursuant to Physical Settlement, Net Share Settlement, Termination Settlement or any Private Placement Settlement, more than a number of Shares equal to the product of 2 *and* the initial Base Amount to Party A (the "Forward Shares"). In connection with any partial settlement of the Transaction, the Base Amount shall be subject to reduction by an amount equal to the product of 2 *and* the number of Settlement Shares for such partial settlement. The Forward Shares shall be subject to adjustment from time to time in accordance with the provisions of this Forward Confirmation and the 2002 Definitions.

<u>Transfer and Assignment</u>:

Party A may assign or transfer any of its rights or delegate any of its duties hereunder, without the prior written consent of Party B, to (i) any affiliate of Party A, whose obligations hereunder and under the Agreement are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Party A or (ii) any affiliate of Party A that has a rating for its long-term, unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness or a long-term issuer rating that is equal to or better than the rating for Party A's long-term, unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness or Party A's long-term issuer rating, as the case may be, at the time of such assignment or transfer so long as, in each case, at the time of such assignment or transfer (a) Party B will not, as a result of such assignment or transfer, be required to pay to such assignee or transferee an amount in respect of an Indemnifiable Tax under Section 2(d)(i)(4) of the Agreement greater than the amount in respect of which Party B would have been required to pay Party A in the absence of such assignment or transfer; (b) Party B will not, as a result of such assignment or transfer, receive a payment from which an amount has been

------

withheld or deducted on account of a Tax under Section 2(d)(i) of the Agreement in excess of that which Party A would have been required to so withhold or deduct in the absence of such assignment or transfer; and (c) no Event of Default, Potential Event of Default or Termination Event will occur as a result of such assignment or transfer. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Forward Confirmation to the contrary requiring or allowing Party A to purchase, sell, receive or deliver any Shares or other securities to or from Party B, Party A may designate any of its affiliates to purchase, sell, receive or deliver such Shares or other securities and otherwise to perform Party A's obligations in respect of the Transaction and any such designee may assume such obligations. Party A shall be discharged of its obligations to Party B to the extent of any such performance.

<u>Indemnity</u>:

Party B agrees to indemnify Party A and its affiliates and their respective directors, officers, agents and controlling parties (Party A and each such affiliate or person being an "Indemnified Party") from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities, joint and several, incurred by or asserted against such Indemnified Party arising out of, in connection with, or relating to, any breach of any covenant or representation made by Party B in this Forward Confirmation or the Agreement and will reimburse any Indemnified Party for all reasonable expenses (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) as they are incurred in connection with the investigation of, preparation for, or defense of any pending or threatened claim or any action or proceeding arising therefrom, whether or not such Indemnified Party is a party thereto. Party B will not be liable under this Indemnity paragraph to the extent that any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense is found in a final and nonappealable judgment by a court to have resulted from any Indemnified Party's gross negligence or willful misconduct.

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

<u>No Collateral or Setoff</u>:

Notwithstanding Section 6(f) or any other provision of the Agreement or any other agreement between the parties to the contrary, the obligations of Party B under the Transaction are not secured by any collateral. Obligations under the Transaction shall not be set off against any other obligations of the parties, whether arising under the Agreement, under this Forward Confirmation, under any other agreement between the parties hereto, by operation of law or otherwise, and no other obligations of the parties shall be set off against obligations under the Transaction, whether arising under the Agreement, under this Forward Confirmation, under any other agreement between the parties hereto, by operation of law or otherwise, and each party hereby waives any such right of setoff.

------

<u>Status of Claims in Bankruptcy</u>:

Party A acknowledges and agrees that this Forward Confirmation is not intended to convey to Party A rights with respect to the Transaction that are senior to the claims of common stockholders in any U.S. bankruptcy proceedings of Party B; provided, however*,* that nothing herein shall limit or shall be deemed to limit Party A's right to pursue remedies in the event of a breach by Party B of its obligations and agreements with respect to this Forward Confirmation and the Agreement; and provided further, that nothing herein shall limit or shall be deemed to limit Party A's rights in respect of any transaction other than the Transaction.

<u>Limit on Beneficial Ownership</u>:

Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, Party A shall not have the "right to acquire" (within the meaning of NYSE Rule 312.04(g)) Shares hereunder and Party A shall not be entitled to take delivery of any Shares deliverable hereunder in respect of the Transaction (in each case, whether in connection with the purchase of Shares on any Settlement Date or any Termination Settlement Date, any Private Placement Settlement or otherwise) to the extent (but only to the extent) that, after such receipt of any Shares hereunder, (i) the Share Amount would exceed the Post-Effective Limit, (ii) the Section 16 Percentage would exceed 7.5% or (iii) Party A and each person subject to aggregation of Shares with Party A under Section 13 or Section 16 of the Exchange Act and rules promulgated thereunder (the "Party A Group") would directly or indirectly beneficially own (as such term is defined for purposes of Section 13 or Section 16 of the Exchange Act and rules promulgated thereunder) in excess of the Threshold Number of Shares. Any purported delivery hereunder shall be void and have no effect to the extent (but only to the extent) that, after such delivery, (i) the Share Amount would exceed the Post-Effective Limit, (ii) the Section 16 Percentage would exceed 7.5% or (iii) Party A Group would directly or indirectly so beneficially own in excess of the Threshold Number of Shares. If any delivery owed to Party A hereunder is not made, in whole or in part, as a result of this provision, Party B's obligation to make such delivery shall not be extinguished and Party B shall make such delivery as promptly as practicable after, but in no event later than one Exchange Business Day after, Party A gives notice to Party B that, after such delivery, (i) the Share Amount would not exceed the Post-Effective Limit, (ii) the Section 16 Percentage would not exceed 7.5% and (iii) Party A Group would not directly or indirectly so beneficially own in excess of the Threshold Number of Shares. The "Threshold Number of Shares" means 2,290,154 Shares. The "Section 16 Percentage" as of any day is the fraction, expressed as a percentage, (A) the numerator of which is the number of Shares that Party A and any of its affiliates or any other person subject to aggregation with Party A for purposes of the "beneficial ownership" test under Section 13 of the Exchange Act, or any "group" (within the meaning of Section 13 of the Exchange Act) of which Party A is or may be deemed to be a part beneficially owns (within the meaning of Section 13 of the Exchange Act), without duplication, on such day (or, to the extent that for any reason the equivalent calculation under Section 16 of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder results in a higher number, such higher number) and (B) the denominator of which is the number of Shares outstanding on such day.

------

In addition, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if any delivery owed to Party A hereunder is not made, in whole or in part, as a result of the immediately preceding paragraph, Party A shall be permitted to make any payment due in respect of such Shares to Party B in two or more tranches that correspond in amount to the number of Shares delivered by Party B to Party A pursuant to the immediately preceding paragraph.

<u>Other Forward Transactions</u>:

Party A acknowledges that Party B has entered into or may enter in the future into one or more forward transactions on the Shares (each, an "Other Forward" and, collectively, the "Other Forwards") with one or more forward purchasers. Party A and Party B agree that if Party B designates a "Settlement Date" (or equivalent concept) with respect to one or more Other Forwards for which "Cash Settlement" (or equivalent concept) or "Net Share Settlement" (or equivalent concept) is applicable, and the resulting "Unwind Period" (or equivalent concept) for such Other Forward(s) coincides for any period of time with an Unwind Period (the "Overlap Unwind Period"), Party B shall notify Party A at least one Scheduled Trading Day prior to the commencement of such Overlap Unwind Period of the first Scheduled Trading Day and the length of such Overlap Unwind Period, and Party A shall be permitted to purchase Shares to unwind its hedge in respect of the Transaction only on alternating Scheduled Trading Days during such Overlap Unwind Period, as notified to Party A by Party B at least one Exchange Business Day prior to such Overlap Unwind Period (which alternating Scheduled Trading Days, for the avoidance of doubt, shall be every other Scheduled Trading Day if there is only one Other Forward, every third Scheduled Trading Day if there are two Other Forwards, etc.).

<u>Wall Street Transparency and Accountability Act</u>:

In connection with Section 739 of the Wall Street Transparency and Accountability Act of 2010 (the "WSTAA"), the parties hereby agree that neither the enactment of the WSTAA or any regulation under the WSTAA, nor any requirement under the WSTAA or an amendment made by the WSTAA, shall limit or otherwise impair either party's otherwise applicable rights to terminate, renegotiate, modify, amend or supplement this Forward Confirmation or the Agreement, as applicable, arising from a termination event, force majeure, illegality, increased costs, regulatory change or similar event under this Forward Confirmation, the 2002 Definitions incorporated herein or the Agreement (including, but not limited to, rights arising from any Acceleration Event or Illegality (as defined in the Agreement)).

<u>Communications with Employees of J.P. Morgan Securities LLC</u>:

If Counterparty interacts with any employee of J.P. Morgan Securities LLC with respect to the Transaction, Counterparty is hereby notified that such employee will act solely as an authorized representative of JPMorgan Chase Bank, National Association (and not as a representative of J.P. Morgan Securities LLC) in connection with the Transaction.

**<u>ANNEX A</u>**

**PRIVATE PLACEMENT PROCEDURES** 

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

(ii) If Party B delivers any Restricted Shares in respect of the Transaction, unless it is advised in writing by
outside counsel that any of the following actions would violate applicable securities laws because of a change in law or a change in the policy of the Securities and Exchange Commission or its staff occurring after the date hereof, Party B agrees
that (i) such Shares may be transferred by and among Party A and its affiliates and (ii) after the minimum "holding period" within the meaning of Rule 144(d) under the Securities Act has elapsed after the applicable Settlement
Date, Party B shall promptly remove, or cause the transfer agent for the Shares to remove, any legends referring to any transfer restrictions from such Shares upon delivery by Party A (or such affiliate of Party A) to Party B or such transfer agent
of seller's and broker's representation letters customarily delivered by Party A or its affiliates in connection with resales of restricted securities pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act, each without any further requirement for
the delivery of any certificate, consent, agreement, opinion of counsel, notice or any other document, any transfer tax stamps or payment of any other amount or any other action by Party A (or such affiliate of Party A).
