Dear Sir / Madam:

The purpose of this letter agreement (this "**Confirmation**") is to confirm the terms and conditions of the transaction entered into between Citibank, N.A. ("**Dealer**") and Ayar Third Investment Company ("**Counterparty**") on the Trade Date specified below (the "**Transaction**"). This letter agreement constitutes a "Confirmation" as referred to in the ISDA Master Agreement specified below. Each party further agrees that this Confirmation together with the Master Agreement evidence a complete binding agreement between Counterparty and Dealer as to the subject matter and terms of the Transaction to which this Confirmation relates and shall supersede all prior or contemporaneous written or oral communications with respect thereto.

The definitions and provisions contained in the 2006 ISDA Definitions (the "**Swap Definitions**") and the 2002 ISDA Equity Derivatives Definitions (the "**Equity Definitions**" and together with the Swap Definitions, the "**Definitions**") in each case as published by the International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. ("**ISDA**"), are incorporated into this Confirmation. In the event of any inconsistency between the Swap Definitions and the Equity Definitions, the Equity Definitions shall govern and in the event of any inconsistency between the Definitions and this Confirmation, this Confirmation shall govern.

In connection with this Confirmation, Dealer and Issuer have entered into a letter agreement dated as of the date hereof in which Issuer makes certain representations, warranties and covenants to Dealer (the "**Issuer Letter Agreement**").

Each party is hereby advised, and each such party acknowledges, that the other party has engaged in, or refrained from engaging in, substantial financial transactions and has taken other material actions in reliance upon the parties' entry into the Transaction to which this Confirmation relates on the terms and conditions set forth below.

1. This Confirmation evidences a complete binding agreement between Counterparty and Dealer as to the terms of the Transaction to which this Confirmation relates. This Confirmation (notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein) shall be subject to an agreement in the form of the 2002 ISDA Master Agreement (the "**Master Agreement**") as if Dealer and Counterparty had executed an agreement in such form (but without any Schedule except for (i) the election of the laws of the State of New York as the governing law (without reference to choice of law doctrine) and (ii) the election that the "Cross-Default" provisions of Section 5(a)(vi) of the Master Agreement shall apply to Dealer with (a) a "Threshold Amount" of 3% of the shareholders' equity of Dealer's ultimate parent on the Trade Date, (b) "Specified Indebtedness" having the meaning set forth in Section 14 of the Master Agreement, except that it shall not include any obligation in respect of deposits received in the ordinary course of Dealer's banking business, (c) the phrase ", or becoming capable at such time of being declared," being deleted from clause (1) of such Section 5(a)(vi) of the Master Agreement, and (d) the following sentence being added to the end of Section 5(a)(vi) of the Master Agreement: "Notwithstanding the foregoing, a default under subsection (2) hereof shall not constitute an Event of Default if (i) the default was caused solely by error or omission of an administrative or operational nature; (ii) funds were available to enable the relevant party to make payment when due; and (iii) the payment is made within two Local Business Days of such party's receipt of written notice of its failure to pay.") on the Trade Date. In the event of any inconsistency between the provisions of the Master Agreement and this Confirmation, this Confirmation will prevail for the purpose of the Transaction to which this Confirmation relates. The parties hereby agree that no transaction other than the Transaction to which this Confirmation relates shall be governed by the Master Agreement.

2. The Transaction constitutes a Share Forward Transaction for purposes of the Equity Definitions. The terms of the particular Transaction to which this Confirmation relates are as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Counterparty is not, on the Trade Date, engaged in a distribution, as such term is used in Regulation M under the Exchange Act of any securities of Issuer, other than a distribution meeting the requirements of the exception set forth in Rules 101(b)(10) and 102(b)(7) of Regulation M. Counterparty shall not, engage in any such distribution until the second Scheduled Trading Day immediately following the Effective Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Counterparty has made, or will make in a timely manner, any filings required to be made by it with the SEC, any securities exchange or any other regulatory body with respect to the Transaction contemplated hereby.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(j) Neither the execution and delivery of this Confirmation nor the incurrence or performance of obligations of Counterparty hereunder will conflict with or result in a breach of the certificate of incorporation or by-laws (or any equivalent documents) of Counterparty, or any applicable law or regulation, or any order, writ, injunction or decree of any court or governmental authority or agency, or any agreement or instrument to which Counterparty or any of its subsidiaries is a party or by which Counterparty or any of its subsidiaries is bound or to which Counterparty or any of its subsidiaries is subject, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation of any lien under, any such agreement or instrument.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(k) No consent, approval, authorization, or order of, or filing with, any governmental agency or body or any court is required in connection with the execution, delivery or performance by Counterparty of this Confirmation, except such as have been obtained or made and such as may be required under the Securities Act or state securities laws.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(m) Counterparty is an "eligible contract participant" (as such term is defined in Section 1a(18) of the Commodity Exchange Act, as amended, other than a person that is an eligible contract participant under Section 1a(18)(C) of the Commodity Exchange Act).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(n) [*Reserved*]

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(p) Counterparty acknowledges that the offer and sale of the Transaction to it is intended to be exempt from registration under the Securities Act, by virtue of Section 4(a)(2) thereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(r) As of Trade Date and at any time that Counterparty makes an election under the Transaction, Counterparty is not in possession of any material non-public information concerning the Issuer or the Shares.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(s) Counterparty understands that, notwithstanding any other relationship between Counterparty and Dealer and/or its affiliates, in connection with the Transaction, Dealer is acting as principal and is not a fiduciary or advisor in respect thereof, including the entry into the Transaction, and any future, amendment, unwind or termination thereof.

7. Other Provisions.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) *<u>Opinions</u>*. On or prior to the Effective Date, Counterparty shall deliver to Dealer one or more opinion(s) of counsel, dated as of the Effective Date, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Dealer, with respect to the matters set forth in Section 6(g), Section 6(j), Section 6(k) and Section 6(l) of this Confirmation (but subject to customary limitations, exceptions, assumptions and qualifications). Delivery of such opinion to Dealer shall be a condition precedent for the purpose of Section 2(a)(iii) of the Master Agreement with respect to each obligation of Dealer under Section 2(a)(i) of the Master Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) *[<u>Reserved</u>]*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) *<u>Early Unwind</u>*. In the event the sale of the "Initial Securities" (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) is not consummated pursuant to the Purchase Agreement for any reason by 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Prepayment Date, or such later date as agreed upon by the parties (the Prepayment Date or such later date, the "**Early Unwind Date**"), the Transaction shall automatically terminate (the "**Early Unwind**") on the Early Unwind Date and (i) the Transaction and all of the respective rights and obligations of Dealer and Counterparty under the Transaction (other than as described in clause (iii) hereof) shall be cancelled and terminated, (ii) each party shall be released and discharged by the other party from and agrees not to make any claim against the other party with respect to any obligations or liabilities of the other party arising out of and to be performed in connection with the Transaction (other than as described in clause (iii) hereof) either prior to or after the Early Unwind Date and (iii) to the extent either party made any payments or deliveries on or prior to the Early Unwind Date, the recipient of such payment or delivery must within one Currency Business Day repay such cash or redeliver such property, as the case may be. Each of Dealer and Counterparty represents and acknowledges to the other that upon an Early Unwind, all obligations with respect to the Transaction (other than as described in clause (iii) hereof) shall be deemed fully and finally discharged.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) *<u>Transfer or Assignment</u>*.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Either party may transfer or assign any of its rights or obligations under the Transaction with the prior written consent of the non-transferring party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed; *provided* that Dealer may transfer or assign its rights and obligations hereunder, in whole or in part, without Counterparty's consent, to any affiliate of Dealer (a "**Designated Transferee**") (A) whose obligations would be guaranteed by Dealer or Dealer's ultimate parent or (B) that has, or whose obligations would be guaranteed by a person with, in either case under this clause (B), a rating for its long-term, unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness at least equivalent to Dealer's (or its guarantor's) at the time of such transfer or assignment, *provided*, *however*, that, in the case of this clause (B), in no event shall the credit rating of the Designated Transferee or of its guarantor (whichever is higher) be lower than A3 from Moody's Investors Service, Inc. or its successor or A- from S&P Global Ratings, a division of S&P Global Inc., or its successor; *provided further* that (i) Dealer will notify Counterparty in writing prior to or promptly after any proposed transfer or assignment to a Designated Transferee, (ii) after any such transfer or assignment, Counterparty will not, as a result of any withholding or deduction made by the transferee or assignee as a result of any tax, receive from such transferee or assignee on any payment date or delivery date under the Transaction (including in respect of any Dividend Amount) (after accounting for amounts paid under Section 2(d)(i)(4) of the Master Agreement as well as such withholding or deduction from the payment or delivery) an amount or a number of Shares, as applicable, lower than the amount or the number of Shares, as applicable, that Counterparty would have received in the absence of such transfer or assignment, (iii) Dealer shall cause the transferee or assignee to make the Payee Tax Representations and provide Counterparty with a complete and accurate U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 or W-8 (as applicable), and any other tax documentation as may be reasonably requested by Counterparty, prior to becoming a party to the Transaction to permit Counterparty to determine that the results described in clause (ii) will not occur upon or after such transfer or assignment and (iv) if to a transferee incorporated or organized in a jurisdiction other than the United States or United Kingdom, after giving effect to such transfer, no material adverse legal or regulatory consequence shall result to Counterparty as a result of such transfer. If at any time at which (A) the Section 16 Percentage exceeds 8.5%, (B) the Forward Equity Percentage exceeds 14.5%, or (C) the Share Amount exceeds the Applicable Share Limit (if any applies) (any such condition described in clauses (A), (B) or (C), an "**Excess Ownership Position**"), Dealer is unable after using its commercially reasonable efforts to effect a transfer or assignment of a portion of the Transaction to a third party on pricing terms reasonably acceptable to Dealer and within a time period reasonably acceptable to Dealer such that no Excess Ownership Position exists, then Dealer may designate any Exchange Business Day as an Early Termination Date with respect to a portion of the Transaction (the "**Terminated Portion**"), such that following such partial termination no Excess Ownership Position exists. In the event that Dealer so designates an Early Termination Date with respect to a portion of the Transaction, a payment shall be made pursuant to Section 6 of the Master Agreement as if (1) an Early Termination Date had been designated in respect of a Transaction having terms identical to the Transaction and a Number of Shares equal to the number of Shares underlying the Terminated Portion, (2) Counterparty were the sole Affected Party with respect to such partial termination and (3) the Terminated Portion were the sole Affected Transaction. 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 Dealer and any of its affiliates or any other person subject to aggregation with Dealer 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 Dealer is or may be deemed to be a part of 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. The "**Forward Equity Percentage**" as of any day is the fraction, expressed as a percentage, (A) the numerator of which is the sum of (1) the Number of Shares and (2) the "Number of Shares" (as such term is defined in the confirmation for the Prior Prepaid Forward) and (B) the denominator of which is the number of Shares outstanding. The "**Share Amount**" as of any day is the number of Shares that Dealer and any person whose ownership position would be aggregated with that of Dealer (Dealer or any such person, a "**Dealer Person**") under any law, rule, regulation, regulatory order or organizational documents or contracts of Counterparty or Issuer 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 under any Applicable Restriction, as determined by Dealer in its reasonable discretion. The "**Applicable Share Limit**" means a number of Shares equal to (A) the minimum number of Shares that could give rise to reporting or registration obligations or other requirements (including obtaining prior approval from any person or entity) of a Dealer Person, or could result in an adverse effect on a Dealer Person, under any Applicable Restriction, as determined by Dealer in its reasonable discretion based on the advice of counsel, *minus* (B) 1% of the number of Shares outstanding.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Confirmation to the contrary requiring or allowing Dealer to purchase, sell, receive or deliver any Shares or other securities, or make or receive any payment in cash, to or from Counterparty, Dealer may designate any of its affiliates to purchase, sell, receive or deliver such Shares or other securities, or to make or receive such payment in cash, and otherwise to perform Dealer's obligations in respect of the Transaction and any such designee may assume such obligations. Dealer shall be discharged of its obligations to Counterparty which have been so delegated only to the extent of any such performance by such affiliate of Dealer.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Confirmation to the contrary requiring or allowing Counterparty to purchase, sell, receive or deliver any Shares or other securities, or make or receive any payment in cash, to or from Dealer, Counterparty may designate any of its affiliates to purchase, sell, receive or deliver such Shares or other securities, or to make or receive such payment in cash, and otherwise to perform Counterparty's obligations in respect of the Transaction and any such designee may assume such obligations. Counterparty shall be discharged of its obligations to Dealer which have been so delegated only to the extent of any such performance by such affiliate of Counterparty.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) *<u>Staggered Settlement</u>*. If Dealer reasonably determines that it would not be practicable or advisable to deliver, or to acquire Shares to deliver, any or all of the Shares to be delivered by Dealer on any Settlement Date for the Transaction, Dealer may, by notice to Counterparty on or prior to such Settlement Date (a "**Nominal Settlement Date**"), elect to deliver the Daily Number of Shares otherwise deliverable on such Nominal Settlement Date on two or more dates (each, a "**Staggered Settlement Date**") or at two or more times on a Nominal Settlement Date as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) in such notice, Dealer will specify to Counterparty the related Staggered Settlement Dates (the first
of which will be such Nominal Settlement Date and the last of which will be no later than the twentieth (20th) Exchange Business Day following
such Nominal Settlement Date) and the number of Shares that it will deliver on each Staggered Settlement Date or delivery times;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) the aggregate number of Shares that Dealer will deliver to Counterparty hereunder on all such Staggered
Settlement Dates or delivery times will equal the number of Shares that Dealer would otherwise be required to deliver on such Nominal
Settlement Date; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) the Physical Settlement terms will apply on each Staggered Settlement Date, except that the Daily Number
of Shares otherwise deliverable on such Nominal Settlement Date will be allocated among such Staggered Settlement Dates or delivery times
as specified by Dealer in the notice referred to in clause (1) above.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, solely in connection with a Staggered Settlement Date, Dealer shall be entitled to deliver Shares to Counterparty from time to time prior to the date on which Dealer would be obligated to deliver them to Counterparty pursuant to the Physical Settlement terms set forth above, and Counterparty agrees to credit all such early deliveries against Dealer's obligations hereunder in the direct order in which such obligations arise. No such early delivery of Shares will accelerate or otherwise affect any of Counterparty's obligations to Dealer hereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) *<u>Calculations and Payment Date upon Early Termination.</u>* The parties acknowledge and agree that in calculating a Close-out Amount pursuant to Section 6 of the Master Agreement or a Cancellation Amount pursuant to Section 12.8 of the Equity Definitions Dealer may (but need not) determine losses and gains without reference to actual losses and gains incurred or realized but based on expected losses and gains assuming a commercially reasonable (including without limitation with regard to reasonable legal and regulatory guidelines) "risk bid", "private placement" discount and/or "volume weighted" valuations were used to determine loss or gain to avoid awaiting the delay associated with closing out any commercially reasonable hedge or related trading position in a commercially reasonable manner prior to or promptly following the designation of an Early Termination Date or other date of cancellation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) *<u>Special Provisions for Merger Transactions</u>*. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Confirmation, Counterparty agrees that (x) it will not during any Prohibited Period make any public announcement (as defined in Rule 165(f) under the Securities Act) of any merger, acquisition or similar transaction involving a recapitalization of Issuer as contemplated by Rule 10b-18(a)(13)(iv) under the Exchange Act (for the avoidance of doubt, taking into account the exception in Rule 10b-18(a)(13)(iv)(A)) (a "**Merger Transaction**") or potential Merger Transaction (a "Merger Announcement") unless such Merger Announcement is made prior to the opening or after the close of the regular trading session on the Exchange for the Shares; and (y) it shall promptly (but in any event prior to the next opening of the regular trading session on the Exchange) notify Dealer following any such Merger Announcement that such Merger Announcement has been made.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) *<u>Securities Contract, Swap Agreement</u>*. The parties hereto intend for (i) the Transaction to be a "securities contract" and a "swap agreement" as defined in the Bankruptcy Code, and the parties hereto to be entitled to the protections afforded by, among other Sections, Sections 362(b)(6), 362(b)(17), 546(e), 546(g), 555 and 560 of the Bankruptcy Code, (ii) a party's right to liquidate the Transaction and to exercise any other remedies upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, Early Termination Event, Extraordinary Event or Additional Disruption Event under this Confirmation with respect to the other party to constitute a "contractual right" as described in the Bankruptcy Code, and (iii) each payment and delivery of cash, securities or other property hereunder to constitute a "margin payment" or "settlement payment" and a "transfer" as defined in the Bankruptcy Code.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) *<u>No Netting or Setoff</u>.* Obligations under the Transaction shall not be netted, recouped or set off (including pursuant to Section 6 of the Master Agreement) against any other obligations of the parties, whether arising under the Master Agreement, this Confirmation, under any other agreement between the parties hereto, by operation of law or otherwise, and no other obligations of the parties shall be netted, recouped or set off (including pursuant to Section 6 of the Master Agreement) against obligations under the Transaction, whether arising under the Master Agreement, this Confirmation, under any other agreement between the parties hereto, by operation of law or otherwise, and each party hereby waives any such right of setoff, netting or recoupment*.*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(j) *<u>Arbitration</u>*.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Section 13(b) of the Agreement shall be deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:

of its nullity and any dispute relating to any non-contractual obligations arising out of or in connection with it (a "**Dispute** "),
shall be exclusively referred to and finally resolved by arbitration. All questions of arbitrability shall be decided through arbitration,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(o) [*<u>Reserved</u>.*]

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(p) *<u>Payee Tax Representations</u>*.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) For the purpose of Section 3(f) of the Master Agreement, Counterparty makes the representations
below:

Counterparty is treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes that is not a "United States person" (as that term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (as defined below)) for United States federal income tax purposes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) For the purpose of Section 3(f) of the Master Agreement, Dealer makes the representations below:

Dealer is a "United States person" (as that term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (as defined below)) for United States federal income tax purposes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(q) *<u>Withholding Tax Imposed on Payments to Non-U.S. Counterparties under the United States Foreign Account Tax Compliance Provisions of the HIRE Act</u>*. "Indemnifiable Tax", as defined in Section 14 of the Master Agreement, shall not include any U.S. federal withholding tax imposed or collected pursuant to FATCA (a "**FATCA Withholding Tax**"). "FATCA" is defined as Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "**Code**"), any current or future regulations or official interpretations thereof, any agreement entered into pursuant to Section 1471(b) of the Code, or any fiscal or regulatory legislation, rules or practices adopted pursuant to any intergovernmental agreement entered into in connection with the implementation of such Sections of the Code. For the avoidance of doubt, a FATCA Withholding Tax is a Tax the deduction or withholding of which is required by applicable law for the purposes of Section 2(d) of the Master Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(r) *<u>Dividend-Related Payments</u>.* "Indemnifiable Tax", as defined in Section 14 of the Master Agreement, shall not include any tax imposed on payments treated as dividends from sources within the United States under Section 871(m) of the Code or any regulations issued thereunder or any amount determined by reference to any dividend or distribution (including, for the avoidance of doubt, Dividend Amounts). For the avoidance of doubt, any such tax imposed under Section 871(m) of the Code is a Tax the deduction or withholding of which is required by applicable law for the purposes of Section 2(d) of the Master Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(s) *<u>Section 1445</u>*. "Indemnifiable Tax", as defined in Section 14 of the Master Agreement, shall not include any withholding tax imposed pursuant to Section 1445 of the Code or regulations thereunder. For the avoidance of doubt, any such tax imposed under Section 1445 is a Tax the deduction or withholding of which is required by applicable law for the purposes of Section 2(d) of the Master Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, Counterparty acknowledges and agrees that Dealer shall be entitled to withhold pursuant to Section 1445 at the applicable rate from any Cash Settlement Amount payable by Dealer to Counterparty, unless Counterparty establishes an exemption from such withholding to the satisfaction of Dealer (which may include (1) a statement from the Issuer that, to the satisfaction of Dealer, establishes an exemption from withholding under U.S. Treasury Regulations Section 1.1445-2(c)(3), dated no earlier than 30 days prior to the relevant Cash Settlement Payment Date, accompanied by (2) a copy of the Issuer's notice to the IRS pursuant to and in accordance with U.S. Treasury Regulations 1.897-2(h)(2)). Without limiting Dealer's rights under the Agreement or this Confirmation (including Dealer's rights to withhold pursuant to the prior sentence), upon reasonable request of Counterparty, Dealer agrees to make commercially reasonable efforts to provide Counterparty with a form of certification to be provided by Issuer that would be acceptable to Dealer for purposes of clause (1) of the preceding sentence.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(t) *<u>Tax Forms</u>*. For the purpose of Sections 4(a)(i) and (ii) of the Master Agreement, Counterparty agrees to deliver to Dealer one executed and completed U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8 BEN-E (or successor thereto) and Dealer agrees to deliver to Counterparty, as applicable, a U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (or successor thereto). Such forms or documents shall be delivered upon (i) execution of this Confirmation, (ii) Counterparty or Dealer, as applicable, learning that any such tax form previously provided by it has become obsolete or incorrect, and (iii) reasonable request of the other party.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(u) *<u>Wall Street Transparency and Accountability Act.</u>* In connection with Section 739 of the Wall Street Transparency and Accountability Act of 2010 ("**WSTAA**"), the parties hereby agree that neither the enactment of WSTAA or any regulation under the WSTAA, nor any requirement under WSTAA or an amendment made by WSTAA, shall limit or otherwise impair either party's otherwise applicable rights to terminate, renegotiate, modify, amend or supplement this Confirmation or the Master Agreement, as applicable, arising from a termination event, force majeure, illegality, increased costs, regulatory change or similar event under this Confirmation, the Equity Definitions incorporated herein, or the Master Agreement (including, but not limited to, rights arising from Change in Law, Hedging Disruption, Increased Cost of Hedging, an Excess Ownership Position, or Illegality (as defined in the Master Agreement)).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) *<u>Notice</u>*. Counterparty shall, upon obtaining knowledge of the occurrence of any event that would, with the giving of notice, the passage of time or the satisfaction of any condition, constitute an Event of Default in respect of which it would be the Defaulting Party, a Termination Event in respect of which it would be an Affected Party, a Potential Adjustment Event or an Extraordinary Event (including without limitation an Additional Disruption Event), notify Dealer within one Scheduled Trading Day of the occurrence of obtaining such knowledge.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(w) *<u>Agreements and Acknowledgements Regarding Hedging</u>*. Counterparty understands, acknowledges and agrees that: (A) at any time on and prior to the final Valuation Date, Dealer and its affiliates may buy or sell Shares or other securities or buy or sell options or futures contracts or enter into swaps or other derivative securities in order to adjust its hedge position with respect to the Transaction; (B) Dealer and its affiliates also may be active in the market for Shares other than in connection with hedging activities in relation to the Transaction; (C) Dealer shall make its own determination as to whether, when or in what manner any hedging or market activities in securities of Issuer 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; (D) any market activities of Dealer and its affiliates with respect to Shares may affect the market price and volatility of Shares in a manner that may be adverse to Counterparty; (E) each party's rights and obligations under this Transaction are not dependent or conditional upon Dealer owning or having any legal or equitable interest in the Shares or any expectation of Dealer acquiring such an interest and the fact that Dealer may or may not have such an interest or an expectation of acquiring such an interest shall have no effect whatsoever on the rights and obligations of the parties under this Transaction; and (F) for the avoidance of doubt, notwithstanding any provision of the Equity Definitions: (i) neither party shall acquire any right to exercise, or control the exercise of, any voting or disposal rights relating to any Shares or to give any consent with respect to the Shares by virtue of the Transaction; (ii) the parties are not acting in concert in respect of the exercise of voting or disposal rights relating to any Shares and the parties will make their own determination independently of each other in relation to corporate actions in respect of the Issuer and any Shares that may be held by them; and (iii) there is no agreement, arrangement or understanding between the parties in relation to voting or disposal of any Shares or for the purpose of controlling or influencing the composition of the Issuer's board or the conduct of the Issuer's affairs. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Counterparty shall not be entitled pursuant to the Transaction, whether directly or indirectly, to vote or direct the voting of, or to give or direct the giving of any consent with respect to, any Shares (including any Shares held by or on behalf of Dealer as a hedge for the Transaction), and the parties agree that Dealer under this Transaction shall not take any such directions or instructions from the other party, or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents or representatives, as to such voting or consent.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(x) *<u>US QFC Mandatory Contractual Requirements</u>.*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Limitation on Exercise of Certain Default Rights Related to a Dealer Affiliate's Entry Into Insolvency
Proceedings. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Confirmation or any other agreement, the parties hereto expressly acknowledge
and agree that subject to Section 7(x)(ii), Counterparty shall not be permitted to exercise any Default Right against Dealer with
respect to this Confirmation or any other Relevant Agreement that is related, directly or indirectly, to a Dealer Affiliate becoming subject
to an Insolvency Proceeding.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) General Creditor Protections. Nothing in Section 7(x)(i) shall restrict the exercise by Counterparty
of any Default Right against Dealer with respect to this Confirmation or any other Relevant Agreement that arises as a result of:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. Dealer becoming subject to an Insolvency Proceeding; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. Dealer not satisfying a payment or delivery obligation pursuant to (A) this Confirmation or any other
Relevant Agreement, or (B) another contract between Dealer and Counterparty that gives rise to a Default Right under this Confirmation
or any other Relevant Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) Burden of Proof. After a Dealer Affiliate has become subject to an Insolvency Proceeding, if Counterparty
seeks to exercise any Default Right with respect to this Confirmation or any other Relevant Agreement, Counterparty shall have the burden
of proof, by clear and convincing evidence, that the exercise of such Default Right is permitted hereunder or thereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) General Conditions.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. Effective Date. The provisions set forth in this Section 7(x) will come into effect on the later

prior to the date of this Confirmation, the terms of the ISDA U.S. Protocol shall be incorporated into and form a part of this Confirmation
and shall replace the terms of this Section 7(x). For purposes of incorporating the ISDA U.S. Protocol, Dealer shall be deemed to
be a Regulated Entity, Counterparty shall be deemed to be an Adhering Party and this Confirmation and the Agreement shall each be deemed
to be a Protocol Covered Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. Subsequent Adherence to the U.S. Protocol. If, after the date of this Confirmation, both Dealer and Counterparty
shall have become adhering parties to the ISDA U.S. Protocol, the terms of the ISDA U.S. Protocol will supersede and replace this Section 7(x).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) Definitions. For the purposes of Section 7(x), the following definitions apply:
