| **Re:** | **Master Confirmation: Delayed Draw Variable Share Forward Transactions** |

---

The purpose of this communication (this "**Master <u>Confirmation</u>**") is to set forth certain terms and conditions of one or more share forward transactions (each, a "**<u>Transaction</u>**") that may be entered into from time to time among MJH Partners III LLC, a limited liability company formed under the laws of the State of Delaware ("**Counterparty**"), Citibank, N.A. ("**Dealer**"), and Citibank, N.A., as collateral agent (the "**Collateral Agent**"). This Master Confirmation, taken alone, is neither a commitment by either party to enter into any Transaction nor evidence of a Transaction. Each such Transaction entered into between Dealer and Counterparty that is subject to this Master Confirmation shall be evidenced by (i) a supplemental confirmation substantially in the form of <u>Exhibit A</u> hereto (a "**Supplemental Confirmation**") and (ii) if applicable, a trade notification substantially in the form of <u>Exhibit B</u> hereto (a "**Trade Notification**"), each with such modifications as to which the parties mutually agree. This Master Confirmation, each Supplemental Confirmation and any related Trade Notification together shall constitute a "Confirmation" as referred to in the Agreement specified below and evidence a complete binding agreement among Dealer, Counterparty and the Collateral Agent as to the subject matter and terms of each Transaction to which this Master Confirmation, such Supplemental Confirmation and any such Trade Notification relate and supersede all prior or contemporaneous written or oral communications with respect thereto.

This Master Confirmation, each Supplemental Confirmation and any related Trade Notification shall supplement, form a part of, and be subject to an agreement in the form of the ISDA 2002 Master Agreement (the "**Agreement**") as if Dealer and Counterparty had executed the Agreement on the date of this Master Confirmation (without any Schedule but with the elections and amendments set forth in this Master Confirmation). For the avoidance of doubt, the Transactions under this Master Confirmation shall be the only transactions under the Agreement and shall not be subject to any other (existing or deemed) agreement to which Dealer and Counterparty are parties.

The definitions contained in the 2006 ISDA Definitions (the "**2006 Definitions**") and the 2002 ISDA Equity Derivatives Definitions (the "**Equity Definitions**" and, together with the 2006 Definitions, the "**Definitions**"), as each is published by the International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc., are incorporated into this Master Confirmation.

If, in relation to any Transaction to which this Master Confirmation, a Supplemental Confirmation and any related Trade Notification relate, there is any inconsistency between the Agreement, this Master Confirmation, such Supplemental Confirmation, any such Trade Notification and the Definitions, the following shall prevail for purposes of such Transaction in the order of precedence indicated: (i) any such Trade Notification, (ii) such Supplemental Confirmation, (iii) this Master Confirmation, (iv) the Equity Definitions, (v) the 2006 Definitions and (vi) the Agreement.

For the purposes of the Equity Definitions, each Transaction is a Share Forward Transaction and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Dealer and Counterparty acknowledge and agree that for U.S. Federal income tax purposes, each Component (as defined below) of each Transaction shall constitute a single, indivisible financial instrument and neither Dealer nor Counterparty will take any action that would be inconsistent with such treatment for U.S. Federal income tax purposes.

1. Set forth below are the general terms and conditions that, together with the terms and conditions set forth in the Supplemental Confirmation and any related Trade Notification (in respect of the related Transaction), shall govern the relevant Transaction:

**General Terms:** 

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| Trade Date: | For each Transaction, as specified in the related Supplemental Confirmation. |
| Seller: | Counterparty. |
| Buyer: | Dealer. |
| Shares: | The common stock, par value USD 0.00001 per share, of Issuer (Exchange Symbol: "APO"). |
| Issuer: | Apollo Global Management, Inc. |
| Components: | Each Transaction will be divided into a number of individual Components equal to the Number of Components for such Transaction, each with the terms set forth in this Master Confirmation, the related Supplemental Confirmation and any related Trade Notification, and, in particular, with the Number of Shares and Scheduled Valuation Date set forth in the related Supplemental Confirmation and any related Trade Notification. The payments and deliveries to be made upon settlement of each Transaction will be determined separately for each Component as if each Component were a separate Transaction under the Agreement. |
| Number of Components: | For each Transaction, as specified in the related Supplemental Confirmation. |
| Initial Share Price: | For each Transaction with an Initial Hedging Period, the volume-weighted average price per Share at which Dealer (or any of its affiliates) establishes its commercially reasonable initial hedge of the equity price risk undertaken by Dealer with respect to such Transaction by selling Shares in transactions conforming to the volume and manner-of-sale conditions described in Rule 144(e), (f) and (g) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "**Securities Act**"), in amounts and at times determined by Dealer (or an affiliate of Dealer) in its good faith, commercially reasonable discretion and pursuant to such commercially reasonable instructions or parameters (e.g., limit prices) as Counterparty may notify Dealer from time to time (and Dealer will use good faith efforts to comply with any such instructions or parameters, subject to market conditions, and subject to applicable legal, regulatory or self-regulatory requirements or related policies and procedures (whether or not such requirements, policies or procedures are imposed by law or have been voluntarily adopted by Dealer, but so long as such policies and procedures are related to legal, regulatory or self-regulatory issues and are generally applicable in similar situations and applied to similar transactions in a non-discriminatory manner)), and as set forth in the related Trade Notification. The number of Shares comprising Dealer's initial hedge is referred to herein as the "**Initial Hedge Position**". |
|  | For each Transaction without an Initial Hedging Period, the price per Share as set forth in the related Supplemental Confirmation. |
| Initial Hedging Period: | For each Transaction with an Initial Hedging Period, the period commencing on the Initial Hedging Period Start Date and ending on the earlier of the Scheduled Trading Day on which Dealer (or any of its |

---

affiliates) finishes establishing the Initial Hedge Position and the Cutoff Date (such earlier date, the "**Hedge Completion Date**"). Dealer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to finish establishing its Initial Hedge Position in respect of each Transaction prior to the Cutoff Date, subject to the effect of any instructions or parameters of Counterparty. If Dealer (or any of its affiliates) does not finish establishing Dealer's Initial Hedge Positions in respect of such Transaction by the close of regular trading session on the Exchange on the Cutoff Date, Dealer shall notify Counterparty in the Trade Notification that the Number of Transaction Shares shall be reduced to such number as the number of Shares for which Dealer (or any of its affiliates) has established its Initial Hedge Position in respect of such Transaction. Promptly following the Hedge Completion Date (x) Dealer shall deliver the Trade Notification to Counterparty and (y) for the avoidance of doubt, if the Number of Transaction Shares has been so reduced as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, upon a request by Counterparty pursuant to Section 3(d)(iv) of this Master Confirmation, Dealer shall return to Counterparty, pursuant to such instructions as Counterparty shall provide, a number of Shares previously delivered as Collateral in respect of such Transaction equal to the excess of the aggregate number of Shares delivered as Collateral in respect of such Transaction over the Number of Transaction Shares as so reduced.

For each Transaction without an Initial Hedging Period, not applicable.

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| Initial Hedging Period Start Date: | For each Transaction with an Initial Hedging Period, as specified in the related Supplemental Confirmation. |
| Cutoff Date: | For each Transaction with an Initial Hedging Period, as specified in the related Supplemental Confirmation or such other date as may be agreed by the parties from time to time. |
| Number of Transaction Shares: | With respect to each Transaction, as specified in the related Supplemental Confirmation and any Trade Notification. |
| Number of Shares: | With respect to each Component of a Transaction, the Number of Transaction Shares *divided by* the Number of Components (rounded using a rounding convention determined by the Calculation Agent in its good faith, commercially reasonable discretion, with any remainder allocated to the final Component of such Transaction), as specified in the related Supplemental Confirmation and any Trade Notification. |
| Prepayment: | Applicable. |
| Counterparty's Option to |  |
| Receive Component |  |
| Prepayment Amounts: | With respect to any Unfunded Component of a Transaction, Counterparty may, upon no less than three and no more than ten Scheduled Trading Days' prior written notice to Dealer by delivery of a request in the form of Exhibit D hereto (a "**Prepayment Request**"), designate such Component and a Currency Business Day (each, a "**Component Prepayment Date**") during the Funding Period for such Transaction to receive from Dealer an amount equal to the Component Prepayment Amount for such Component on such Component Prepayment Date. For the avoidance of doubt, (i) Component Prepayment Amounts may only be requested, and paid, in whole and not |

---

in part with respect to any Component, (ii) any Prepayment Request may identify more than one Component with respect to which a Component Prepayment Date is being designated, and may specify different Component Prepayment Date(s) for any such Components (it being understood that each such Component Prepayment Date shall be no less than 3 Scheduled Trading Days following or more than 10 Scheduled Trading Days following the date the relevant Prepayment Request is delivered), and (iii) Counterparty may not repay any Component Prepayment Amount other than in connection with Cash Settlement or Pre-Settlement as described below.

Promptly following Dealer's receipt of a Prepayment Request, Dealer shall deliver to Counterparty an acknowledgement of such Prepayment Request in the form of Exhibit E hereto. Dealer shall pay Counterparty the Component Prepayment Amount with respect to any Component on the related Component Prepayment Date.

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| Funding Period: | For each Transaction, the period from and including the Initial Prepayment Date with respect to such Transaction to but excluding the Final Prepayment Date with respect to such Transaction. |
| Initial Prepayment Date: | For each Transaction with an Initial Hedging Period, the second Clearance System Business Day following the Hedge Completion Date and as specified in the related Trade Notification (or, if such date is not a Currency Business Day, the next following Currency Business Day). For each Transaction without an Initial Hedging Period, the second Clearance System Business Day following the Trade Date and as specified in the related Supplemental Confirmation (or, if such date is not a Currency Business Day, the next following Currency Business Day). |
| Final Prepayment Date: | For each Transaction, the 10th Scheduled Trading Day prior to the Scheduled Valuation Date for the Component with the earliest Scheduled Valuation Date and as specified in the related Supplemental Confirmation or Trade Notification, as applicable. |
| Component Prepayment Amount: | For any Component Prepayment Date for any Component, the Present Value of the Component Forward Amount for such Component as of such Component Prepayment Date. |
| Present Value: | The Present Value of the Component Forward Amount of any Component on any Component Prepayment Date shall be the present value as of such Component Prepayment Date of a payment of such Component Forward Amount on the Future Value Date for such Component, determined by the Calculation Agent using a discount rate equal to the rate that the relevant trading desk or business group of Dealer would be charged to fund a similar transaction (and, if relevant, facing similarly situated counterparties), as determined by Dealer acting in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner, as of the date of the Counterparty's Prepayment Request; assuming a tenor of the period of time from and including the related Component Prepayment Date to but excluding the Future Value Date for such Component. Upon reasonable request by Counterparty, Dealer shall provide a written explanation describing, in reasonable detail, its methodology for the determination of the discount rate used in the calculation of the Present Value for each Component, it being understood that Dealer shall not be |

---

obligated to disclose any proprietary or confidential models or proprietary or confidential information used by it for such determination.

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| Future Value Date: | For each Component of a Transaction, the date that is one Settlement Cycle following the Scheduled Valuation Date for such Component (or, if such date is not a Currency Business Day, the next following Currency Business Day). |
| Component Forward Amount: | For each Component of any Transaction, as specified in the Supplemental Confirmation or Trade Notification, as the case may be, to be equal to the product of the Number of Shares for such Component and the Forward Floor Price. |
| Funded Component: | For any Transaction, and at any time, each Component for which a Component Prepayment Amount has been paid to Counterparty by Dealer on or prior to such time. |
| Unfunded Component: | For any Transaction, and at any time, each Component of such Transaction that is not a Funded Component at such time. |
| Variable Obligation: | Applicable. |
| Forward Floor Price: | For each Transaction, the product of the Forward Floor Percentage and the Initial Share Price, as specified in (i) the related Trade Notification, for each Transaction with an Initial Hedging Period, and (ii) in the related Supplemental Confirmation, for each Transaction without an Initial Hedging Period. |
| Forward Floor Percentage: | For each Transaction, as specified in the related Supplemental Confirmation. |
| Forward Cap Price: | For each Transaction, the product of the Forward Cap Percentage and the Initial Share Price, as specified in (i) the related Trade Notification, for each Transaction with an Initial Hedging Period, and (ii) in the related Supplemental Confirmation, for each Transaction without an Initial Hedging Period. |
| Forward Cap Percentage: | For each Transaction, as specified in the related Supplemental Confirmation. |
| Exchange(s): | New York Stock Exchange |
| Related Exchange(s): | All Exchanges; *provided* that Section 1.26 of the Equity Definitions shall be amended to add the words "United States" before the word "exchange" in the tenth line of such Section. |

---

**Valuation:** 

*In respect of any Component:*

Valuation Time: As provided in Section 6.1 of the Equity Definitions. <br>Scheduled Valuation Date: For each Component of a Transaction, as set forth in the related Supplemental Confirmation or any Trade Notification (or, if such date is not a Scheduled Trading Day, the next succeeding Scheduled Trading

Day that is not a Scheduled Valuation Date for any other Component of any Transaction hereunder).

Valuation Date(s): For each Component, the Scheduled Valuation Date for such Component.

If the Scheduled Valuation Date for any Component is a Disrupted Day, Section 6.6 of the Equity Definitions shall not apply and the Valuation Date for such Component shall be the first succeeding Scheduled Trading Day that is not a Disrupted Day and is not or is not deemed to be a Valuation Date in respect of any other Component of any Transaction hereunder; *provided* that if such Valuation Date has not occurred pursuant to the foregoing as of the eighth Scheduled Trading Day following the Scheduled Valuation Date for the final Component for the relevant Transaction, that eighth Scheduled Trading Day shall be the Valuation Date for such Component (irrespective of whether such date is a Valuation Date in respect of any other Component for any Transaction hereunder) and the Calculation Agent shall determine the value for the Shares on that eighth Scheduled Trading Day using commercially reasonable means.

Notwithstanding the foregoing and anything to the contrary in the Equity Definitions, if a Market Disruption Event occurs on any Valuation Date, the Calculation Agent may determine that such Valuation Date is a Disrupted Day only in part, in which case the Calculation Agent shall (i) adjust the number of Shares for the relevant Component for which such Disrupted Day shall be the Valuation Date, (ii) determine the Settlement Price for such Disrupted Day (using, if practicable, a volume-weighted method) based on eligible transactions in the Shares on such Disrupted Day taking into account the nature and duration of such Market Disruption Event and (iii) designate a Scheduled Trading Day determined in the manner described in the immediately preceding paragraph as the Valuation Date for the remaining Shares for such Component. Notwithstanding any provision of the Equity Definitions to the contrary, if a closure of the Exchange prior to its normal close of trading on any Scheduled Trading Day is scheduled following the relevant Trade Date, then any Exchange Business Day occurring on such Scheduled Trading Day shall be deemed to be a Disrupted Day in part.

The Calculation Agent shall promptly provide Counterparty with written notice of the occurrence of a Disrupted Day on any Valuation Date and shall promptly provide Counterparty with written notice following any adjustments to the terms of the relevant Transaction as a result thereof.

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| Market Disruption Event: | Section 6.3(a) of the Equity Definitions is hereby amended by (x) deleting the words "during the one hour period that ends at the relevant Valuation Time, Latest Exercise Time, Knock-in Valuation Time or Knock-out Valuation Time, as the case may be" in clause (ii) thereof and (y) replacing the words "or (iii) an Early Closure." therein with "(iii) an Early Closure or (iv) a Regulatory Disruption." |

---

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

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| Regulatory Disruption: | Dealer reasonably concludes, in its good faith discretion based on the advice of counsel, that it is appropriate with respect to any legal, regulatory or self-regulatory requirements or related policies and procedures (whether or not such requirements, policies or procedures are imposed by law or have been voluntarily adopted by Dealer), including without limitation in the event of any third-party tender offer, for it to refrain from engaging in market transactions relating to the Shares or to reduce the number or size of any such market transactions; *provided* that any such decision shall be made in accordance with internal policies and procedures applicable to the relevant trading desk or line of business, and shall be made consistently across similarly affected counterparties and similarly affected transactions. |
| Settlement Price: | For each Component of a Transaction, subject to "Valuation Date(s)" above, the per-Share volume-weighted average price at which the Shares trade as reported in the composite transactions for United States exchanges and quotation systems as displayed under the heading "Bloomberg VWAP" on Bloomberg page "APO US AQR" in respect of the period from the scheduled open of trading on the Exchange until the Scheduled Closing Time on the Valuation Date for such Component (or any successor page thereto) or, in the event such price is not so reported on such Exchange Business Day for any reason or is manifestly erroneous, as determined by the Calculation Agent based on such transactions reported to the consolidated tape. |

---

**Settlement Terms:**

*In respect of any Component:*

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| Settlement Method Election: | Applicable; *provided* that a single Settlement Method shall apply for each Component but, for the avoidance of doubt, different Settlement Methods may apply for different Components of a single Transaction, it being understood that the Settlement Methods shall be grouped for consecutively numbered Components; *provided, further,* that if Counterparty fails to pay the Pre-Settlement Amount to Dealer with respect to a Component prior to 9:30 a.m., New York City time, on the Pre-Settlement Date (other than, for the avoidance of doubt, where Counterparty elects not to pay a Pre-Settlement Amount in accordance with the Cash Settlement provisions below), Dealer may in its sole discretion deem any election by Counterparty of Cash Settlement to be void, in which case Physical Settlement shall apply to all Components; *provided*, *further*, that any election by Counterparty specifying Cash Settlement for any Component shall not be effective to require Cash Settlement unless Counterparty delivers to Dealer, concurrent with such election, a representation signed by Counterparty substantially in the following form as of the date Counterparty makes such election: "Counterparty is not aware of any material non-public information regarding the Issuer or the Shares, and is electing Cash Settlement in good faith and not as a plan or scheme to evade compliance with the U.S. federal securities laws"; and *provided*, *further*, that notwithstanding any election by Counterparty to the contrary, Cash Settlement will apply if Dealer reasonably concludes, in good faith and upon the advice of counsel, that Counterparty would be unable to make the representations and agreements in Section 9.11 of the Equity Definitions with respect to the Shares to be delivered by Counterparty pursuant to Physical Settlement for any reason. For the avoidance of |

---

doubt, Counterparty must elect the Settlement Method for each Component (and if applicable, make the representation specified above) on the same date with respect to each Transaction.

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| Electing Party: | Counterparty. |
| Settlement Method |  |
| Election Date: | For each Transaction, 8:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Scheduled Valuation Date for the Component of such Transaction with the first Scheduled Valuation Date. |
| Default Settlement Method: | Physical Settlement. |
| Settlement Currency: | USD. |
| Number of Shares |  |
| to be Delivered: | For each Funded Component of a Transaction, |

---

&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;&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;&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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) if the Settlement Price is greater than the Forward Floor Price but less than or equal to the Forward Cap Price, a number of Shares equal to the Number of Shares for such Component *multiplied by*

<u>Forward Floor Price</u> <br> Settlement Price

&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;&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;&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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) if the Settlement Price is greater than the Forward Cap Price, a number of Shares equal to the Number of Shares for such Component *multiplied by*

<u>Forward Floor Price + (Settlement Price – Forward Cap Price)</u> <br> Settlement Price

For each Unfunded Component of a Transaction, the Number of Shares for such Component.

**If Physical Settlement is Applicable:**

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| Physical Settlement for Funded |  |
| Components: | For each Funded Component of a Transaction to which Physical Settlement is applicable, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Equity Definitions, on the relevant Settlement Date, Counterparty will deliver to Dealer a number of Shares equal to the Number of Shares to be Delivered for such Component (rounded down to the nearest whole Share) and will pay to Dealer the Fractional Share Amount, if any. |
| Physical Settlement for Unfunded |  |
| Components: | For each Unfunded Component of a Transaction to which Physical Settlement is applicable, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Equity Definitions, on the relevant Settlement Date, (i) if the Settlement Price is greater than the Forward Cap Price, Dealer shall pay to Counterparty the Forward Cap Price *multiplied by* the Number of Shares to be Delivered, and Counterparty shall deliver to Dealer a number of |

---

Shares equal to the Number of Shares to be Delivered; or (ii) if the Settlement Price is less than the Forward Floor Price, Counterparty shall deliver to Dealer a number of Shares equal to the Number of Shares to be Delivered, and Dealer shall pay to Counterparty the Forward Floor Price *multiplied by* the Number of Shares to be Delivered. If the Settlement Price is equal to or greater than the Forward Floor Price and less than or equal to the Forward Cap Price, no payment or delivery of Shares shall be made by either party.

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| Settlement Date: | For each Component of a Transaction to which Physical Settlement is applicable, the date that falls one Settlement Cycle following the Valuation Date for such Component (or, if such date is not a Clearance System Business Day, the next following Clearance System Business Day). |
| Automatic Physical Settlement: | For each Component of a Transaction to which Physical Settlement is applicable, if (i) by 12:00 p.m., New York City time, on the relevant Settlement Date, Counterparty has not otherwise effected delivery of the Number of Shares to be Delivered (rounded down to the nearest whole Share), and (ii) the Collateral (as defined in Section 3(b) hereof) then held by or on behalf of Dealer includes a number of Shares with respect to which the representations and agreements set forth in Section 9.11 of the Equity Definitions are true and satisfied (or, at the absolute discretion of Dealer, Shares with respect to which such representations and agreements are not true or satisfied), at least equal to the excess of such Number of Shares to be Delivered over the number of Shares (if any) actually delivered in respect thereof as of such time (such excess, the "**Deficit Shares**"), then the delivery provided by "Physical Settlement for Funded Components" or "Physical Settlement for Unfunded Components," as the case may be, shall be effected, in whole or in part, as the case may be, by delivery on the relevant Settlement Date by the Collateral Agent to an affiliate of Dealer designated by Dealer of a number of Shares then held as Collateral hereunder by or on behalf of Dealer equal to the Deficit Shares (and, for the avoidance of doubt, not to exceed the Number of Shares to be Delivered for such Component). Upon any such delivery, Dealer shall hold such Shares absolutely and free from any claim or right whatsoever (including without limitation any claim or right of Counterparty). |

---

**If Cash Settlement is Applicable:**

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| Pre-Settlement: | If Cash Settlement is applicable with respect to any Component, Counterparty shall pay to Dealer the Pre-Settlement Amount for such Component prior to 9:30 a.m., New York City time, on the Pre-Settlement Date (for the avoidance of doubt, except to the extent Counterparty has made an election not to pay the Estimated Unfunded Cash Settlement Amount in respect of the Transaction, as described in the proviso to "Cash Settlement Payment Date" below). |
| Pre-Settlement Amount: | For any Transaction, the sum of: |
|  | (i) with respect to Funded Components to which Cash Settlement is applicable, (x) the sum of the Forward Cash Settlement Amounts for all such Funded Components of such Transaction calculated as if the Valuation Date for each such Funded Component were the Pre-Settlement Measurement Date for such Transaction or (y) such lesser |

---

amount as determined by Dealer in its sole discretion and notified to Counterparty (the sum of such Forward Cash Settlement Amounts for all such Funded Components calculated using that Valuation Date or such lesser amount, the "**Estimated Funded Cash Settlement Amount**"); and

&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;&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;&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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) if Dealer requests (such request to be delivered to Counterparty at least four Scheduled Trading Days prior to the Pre-Settlement Date), with respect to Unfunded Components to which Cash Settlement is applicable, (x) the sum of the Counterparty Settlement Amounts, if any, for all such Unfunded Components of such Transaction calculated as if the Valuation Date for each such Unfunded Component were the Pre-Settlement Measurement Date for such Transaction or (y) such lesser amount as determined by Dealer in its sole discretion and notified to Counterparty (the sum of such Counterparty Settlement Amounts for all such Unfunded Components calculated using that Valuation Date or such lesser amount, the "**Estimated Unfunded Cash Settlement Amount**").

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| Pre-Settlement Measurement Date: | For any Transaction, the Exchange Business Day immediately prior to the Settlement Method Election Date for such Transaction. |
| Pre-Settlement Date: | For any Transaction, the Scheduled Valuation Date for the Component of such Transaction with the earliest Scheduled Valuation Date (or, if such date is not a Currency Business Day, the next following Currency Business Day). |
| Cash Settlement for Funded |  |
| Components: | If Cash Settlement is applicable to any Funded Component of a Transaction, (i) if the sum of the Forward Cash Settlement Amounts for all such Funded Components to which Cash Settlement is applicable is greater than the Estimated Funded Cash Settlement Amount, Counterparty shall pay to Dealer an amount equal to such excess on the Cash Settlement Payment Date; or (ii) if the sum of the Forward Cash Settlement Amounts for all such Funded Components to which Cash Settlement is applicable is less than the Estimated Funded Cash Settlement Amount, Dealer shall pay to Counterparty an amount equal to the absolute value of such shortfall on the Cash Settlement Payment Date. |

&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;&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;&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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; (i) if either Dealer has not requested an Estimated Unfunded Cash Settlement Amount, or if Counterparty has not made an election not to pay the Estimated Unfunded Cash Settlement Amount in respect of the Transaction, as described in the proviso to "Cash Settlement Payment Date" below, the Calculation Agent shall determine an amount equal to (i) the Counterparty Settlement Amount *minus* (ii) the Estimated Unfunded Cash Settlement Amount (which shall be zero if Dealer has not requested such amount) *minus* (iii) the Dealer Settlement Amount.

If such amount is positive, Counterparty shall pay to Dealer such amount on the Cash Settlement Payment Date, or, if such amount is negative, Dealer shall pay to Counterparty the absolute value of such amount on

the Cash Settlement Payment Date. For the avoidance of doubt, if such amount equals zero, no amount shall be payable by either party.

For these purposes:

"**Counterparty Settlement Amount**" means, in respect of the relevant Transaction, the sum of all Unfunded Cash Settlement Amounts for such Transaction for which the Relevant Party is Counterparty.

"**Dealer Settlement Amount**" means, in respect of the relevant Transaction, the sum of all Unfunded Cash Settlement Amounts for such Transaction for which the Relevant Party is 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;&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;&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;&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) if Counterparty has made an election not to pay the Estimated Unfunded Cash Settlement Amount, then, on each Cash Settlement Payment Date, the Relevant Party shall pay the other party the Unfunded Cash Settlement Amount in respect of the relevant Component.

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| Strike Price Differential and |  |
| Relevant Party: | For any Unfunded Component of a Transaction to which Cash Settlement is applicable: |
|  | (a) if the Settlement Price for such Unfunded Component is greater than the Forward Cap Price, then the Strike Price Differential for such Unfunded Component shall be equal to the excess of the Settlement Price for such Unfunded Component over the Forward Cap Price, and the Relevant Party for such Unfunded Component shall be Counterparty, and |
|  | (b) if the Settlement Price for such Unfunded Component is less than the Forward Floor Price, then the Strike Price Differential for such Unfunded Component shall be equal to the excess of the Forward Floor Price over the Settlement Price for such Unfunded Component, and the Relevant Party for such Unfunded Component shall be Dealer, and |
|  | (c) if the Settlement Price for such Unfunded Component is greater than or equal to the Forward Floor Price and less than or equal to the Forward Cap Price, then the Strike Price Differential for such Unfunded Component shall be zero, and there is no Relevant Party for such Unfunded Component. |
| Unfunded Cash Settlement |  |
| Amount: | For each Unfunded Component of a Transaction to which Cash Settlement is applicable, an amount, as calculated by the Calculation Agent, equal to the Number of Shares for such Component *multiplied* by the Strike Price Differential for such Unfunded Component. |
| Cash Settlement Payment Date: | For all Components of a Transaction to which Cash Settlement is applicable, the date that is one Settlement Cycle following the Valuation Date for the final Component (or, if such date is not a Currency Business Day, the next following Currency Business Day); *provided* that if Dealer requests an Estimated Unfunded Cash Settlement Amount in respect of the Unfunded Components, Counterparty may instead elect (by written notice to Dealer no later than 9:30 a.m., New York City time, on the Pre-Settlement Date) to make the Cash Settlement Payment Date for each |

---

Unfunded Component be the date that is one Settlement Cycle following the Valuation Date for such Unfunded Component (of, if such date is not a Currency Business Day, the next following Currency Business Day), in which case no Estimated Unfunded Cash Settlement Amount will be due in respect of such Unfunded Components.

**Adjustments:**

*In respect of any Component:*

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| Potential Adjustment Events: | If an event occurs that constitutes both a Potential Adjustment Event under Section 11.2(e)(ii)(C) of the Equity Definitions and a Spin-off as described below, it shall be treated hereunder as a Spin-off and not as a Potential Adjustment Event. |
| Method of Adjustment: | Calculation Agent Adjustment |
| Spin-off: | A distribution of New Shares (the "**Spin-off Shares**") of a subsidiary of the Issuer (the "**Spin-off Issuer**") to holders of the Shares (the "**Original Shares**"). With respect to a Spin-off, "New Shares" shall have the meaning provided in Section 12.1(i) of the Equity Definitions (as amended below opposite "New Shares") except that the phrase immediately preceding clause (i) therein shall be replaced by the following: "'New Shares' means ordinary or common shares of the Spin-off Issuer that are, or that as of the effectiveness of the relevant Spin-off are scheduled promptly to be,". |
| Consequences of Spin-offs: | Dealer shall have the right to elect in good faith and a commercially reasonable manner, by written notice to Counterparty prior to, or as promptly as practicable following, the ex-dividend date of the Spin-off, that Basket Adjustments or the Separate Transactions Adjustments shall apply to any Spin-off; *provided* that, prior to electing the application of Separate Transactions Adjustments, Dealer shall consult with Counterparty in good faith to ascertain that such election could not reasonably be expected to cause adverse tax consequences (other than *de minimis* consequences) to Counterparty, it being understood that the foregoing shall not (i) limit the right of Dealer to make such election or (ii) obligate Dealer to delay making such election. In the absence of an affirmative election, Dealer shall be deemed to have elected that Basket Adjustments shall apply. |
| Basket Adjustments: | If Dealer shall have elected (or be deemed to have elected) that Basket Adjustments apply to a Spin-off with respect to a Transaction, then as of the ex-dividend date for such Spin-off, (i) "Shares" shall mean the Original Shares and the Spin-off Shares; (ii) such Transaction shall continue but as a Share Basket Forward Transaction with a Number of Baskets for any Component of such Transaction equal to the Number of Shares for such Component immediately prior to such Spin-off, and each Basket shall consist of one Original Share and the number of Spin-off Shares that a holder of one Original Share would have been entitled to receive in such Spin-off (and references to Shares herein shall be interpreted as references to Baskets, as the context requires); and (iii) the Calculation Agent shall make such adjustments to the exercise, settlement, payment or any other terms of such Transaction as the Calculation Agent determines appropriate to account for the economic effect on such Transaction of such Spin-off (including adjustments to |

---

account for changes in volatility, expected dividends, stock loan rate or liquidity relevant to the Shares or to such Transaction), which may, but need not, be determined by reference to the adjustment(s) made in respect of such Spin-off by an options exchange to options on the Shares traded on such options exchange. As of the ex-dividend date of any subsequent Spin-off, the Calculation Agent shall make adjustments to the composition of the Basket and other terms of such Transaction in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence.

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| Separate Transactions |  |
| Adjustments: | If Dealer shall have elected that Separate Transactions Adjustments apply to a Spin-off with respect to a Transaction, as of the ex-dividend date for such Spin-off, then such Transaction shall be considered two separate Transactions, each with terms identical to those of the original Transaction (the "**Original Transaction**"), except that: (i) the "Shares" for the Original Transaction (the "**Original Shares Transaction**") shall be the Original Shares and the "Shares" for the other transaction (the "**Spin-off Shares Transaction**") shall be the Spin-off Shares; (ii) the Number of Shares for each Component of the Original Shares Transaction shall remain unchanged from the Number of Shares for such Component of the Original Transaction; (iii) the Number of Shares for each Component of the Spin-off Shares Transaction shall equal the product of (A) the Number of Shares for such Component of the Original Transaction (as in effect immediately prior to the ex-dividend date for such Spin-off) and (B) the number of Spin-off Shares that a holder of one share of Original Shares would have owned or been entitled to receive in connection with such Spin-Off; (iv) the Forward Floor Price and Forward Cap Price for each of the Original Shares Transaction and the Spin-off Shares Transaction shall be adjusted by the Calculation Agent to reflect the relative market values per share and dividend practices of the Original Shares and the Spin-off Shares immediately following the ex-dividend date for such Spin-off and such other factors that the Calculation Agent reasonably determines are material (so long as such other factors are generally applicable in similar situations and applied to similar transactions in a non-discriminatory manner), as determined by the Calculation Agent, and (v) the Calculation Agent shall make such adjustments to the exercise, settlement, payment or any other terms of each of the Original Shares Transaction and the Spin-Off Shares Transaction as the Calculation Agent determines appropriate to account for the economic effect on each of the Original Shares Transaction and the Spin-Off Shares Transaction of such Spin-off (including without limitation adjustments to account for changes in volatility, expected dividends, stock loan rate or liquidity relevant to the Original Shares, the Spin-off Shares, the Original Shares Transaction or to the Spin-off Shares Transaction). Following a Spin-off to which Separate Transactions Adjustments are applicable, this Master Confirmation shall apply in all respects (except as provided above) to both the Original Shares Transaction and the Spin-off Shares Transaction as if each were a separate Transaction under the Agreement. As of the ex-dividend date of any subsequent Spin-off, the Calculation Agent shall make adjustments to the terms of each of the Original Shares Transaction and the Spin-Off Shares Transaction in accordance with the second immediately preceding sentence. |
| Extraordinary Cash Dividend: | In respect of each Component, any Cash Dividend (i) that has an ex-dividend date occurring during the period from, but excluding, the Trade |

---

Date to, and including, the Valuation Date for such Component and (ii) the amount of which differs from the Ordinary Dividend Amount for such Cash Dividend, as determined by the Calculation Agent; *provided* that if no ex-dividend date occurs during a regular quarterly dividend period of the Issuer and the Ordinary Dividend Amount for such period in respect of the relevant Transaction is greater than zero, the Calculation Agent shall determine the Extraordinary Cash Dividend based on the last Exchange Business Day of such period being deemed an ex-dividend date in respect of a Cash Dividend equal to zero.

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| Different Cash Dividend: | In respect of each Component and any regular quarterly dividend period of the Issuer, any Extraordinary Cash Dividend with respect to such period the amount of which is (i) greater than the Ordinary Dividend Amount with respect to such period by more than 50% of such Ordinary Dividend Amount or (ii) less than the Ordinary Dividend Amount with respect to such period. |
| Cash Dividend: | Any cash dividend or distribution on the Shares. |
| Ordinary Dividend Amount: | With respect to each Transaction, for each regular quarterly dividend period of the Issuer, (i) for the first Cash Dividend with an ex-dividend date that occurs during such period, as set forth in the related Supplemental Confirmation or Trade Notification, and (ii) with respect to any subsequent Cash Dividend for which an ex-dividend date occurs during such period, zero. |
| Payment Obligation in Respect |  |
| of Extraordinary Cash |  |
| Dividends: | In the event of any Extraordinary Cash Dividend (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any Different Cash Dividend), Counterparty shall make a cash payment to Dealer (the "**Extraordinary Dividend Payment**"), on the date such Extraordinary Cash Dividend is paid to holders of Shares, in an amount equal to the product of (i) the number of Shares (as notified to Counterparty by Dealer) comprising Dealer's theoretical "delta" hedge position in respect of the relevant Component immediately prior to the open of business on the ex-dividend date for such Extraordinary Cash Dividend and (ii) the per Share amount of such Extraordinary Cash Dividend *minus* the Ordinary Dividend Amount for such Extraordinary Cash Dividend, as determined by the Calculation Agent; *provided* that if such product is negative, then Dealer shall make a cash payment to Counterparty on such date in an amount equal to the absolute value of such product. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of Section 11.2 of the Equity Definitions shall also apply to any Different Cash Dividend (it being understood, for the avoidance of doubt, that any adjustment made in accordance with such provisions shall be made without duplication of and shall take into account any Extraordinary Dividend Payment that has been made by Counterparty in accordance with the terms hereof). |
|  | If, by 12:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date Counterparty owes any such Extraordinary Dividend Payment, Counterparty has not otherwise satisfied such obligation and at such time or any later time on such date prior to satisfaction of such obligation the Collateral then held hereunder by or on behalf of Dealer includes all or any part of the cash required to be so paid, then the Extraordinary Dividend Payment shall be effected, in whole or in part, as the case may be, by delivery by the |

---

Collateral Agent to Dealer of an amount of cash equal to the amount thereof so required to be paid.

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| Extraordinary Dividend: | (i) Any Different Cash Dividend or (ii) any dividend or distribution on the Shares that is not a Cash Dividend or a dividend or distribution of the type described in Section 11.2(e)(i), 11.2(e)(ii)(A) or 11.2(e)(ii)(B) of the Equity Definitions. For the avoidance of doubt, no adjustments shall be made by the Calculation Agent to any term of the Transactions due to a Cash Dividend that is not a Different Cash Dividend. |
| Excess Dividend Amount: | All references to the Excess Dividend Amount shall be deleted from Sections 8.4(b) and 9.2 of the Equity Definitions. |

---

**Extraordinary Events:**

*In respect of any Component:*

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| New Shares: | Section 12.1(i) of the Equity Definitions is hereby amended by deleting the text in clause (i) thereof in its entirety (including the word "and" following such clause (i)) and replacing it with "publicly quoted, traded or listed on any of the New York Stock Exchange, The Nasdaq Global Select Market or The Nasdaq Global Market (or their respective successors),". |

---

Consequences of Merger Events:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| (a) Share-for-Share: | Modified Calculation Agent Adjustment, unless Dealer determines in good faith, based on advice of counsel, that following the occurrence of such Merger Event it will no longer be entitled to rely on the relief granted by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission ("**SEC**") in the Interpretive Letters in connection with its hedging, settlement and/or enforcement of its rights with respect to any Transaction, in which case Cancellation and Payment shall apply. |
| (b) Share-for-Other: | Cancellation and Payment. |
| (c) Share-for-Combined: | Component Adjustment. |
| Tender Offer: | Applicable; *provided* that (x) Section 12.1(d) of the Equity Definitions is hereby amended by replacing "10%" with "20%" (such percentage, the "**Tender Offer Percentage**") in the third line thereof and by replacing "voting shares" with "Shares" in the fourth line thereof, (y) Section 12.1(e) of the Equity Definitions shall be amended by replacing "voting shares" in the first line thereof with "Shares" and (z) Section 12.1(l) of the Equity Definitions shall be amended by replacing "voting shares" in the fifth line thereof with "Shares". |

---

Consequences of Tender Offers:

(a) Share-for-Share: Modified Calculation Agent Adjustment. <br> (b) Share-for-Other: Modified Calculation Agent Adjustment. <br> (c) Share-for-Combined: Modified Calculation Agent Adjustment.

Any adjustment to the terms of any Transaction hereunder and the determination of any amounts due upon termination of any Transaction hereunder as a result of a Merger Event or Tender Offer shall be made without duplication in respect of any prior adjustment hereunder.

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| Composition of Combined |  |
| Consideration: | Not Applicable |
| Announcement Event: | (i) The public announcement by Issuer or any affiliate or agent thereof or a Valid Third Party Entity of (x) any transaction or event that, if completed, would constitute a Merger Event or Tender Offer, (y) any potential acquisition or disposition by Issuer and/or its subsidiaries where the aggregate consideration exceeds 35% (such percentage, the "**Transformative Transaction Percentage**") of the market capitalization of Issuer as of the date of such announcement (a "**Transformative Transaction**") or (z) the intention to enter into a Merger Event or Tender Offer or a Transformative Transaction, (ii) the public announcement by Issuer of an intention to solicit or enter into, or to explore strategic alternatives or other similar undertaking that, if consummated, would be reasonably expected to include, a Merger Event or Tender Offer or a Transformative Transaction, or (iii) any subsequent public announcement by Issuer or any affiliate or agent thereof or a Valid Third Party Entity of a change to a transaction or intention that is the subject of an announcement of the type described in clause (i) or (ii) of this sentence (including, without limitation, a new announcement, whether or not by the same party, relating to such a transaction or intention or the announcement of a withdrawal from, or the abandonment or discontinuation of, such a transaction or intention), as determined by the Calculation Agent. For the avoidance of doubt, the occurrence of an Announcement Event with respect to any transaction or intention shall not preclude the occurrence of a later Announcement Event with respect to such transaction or intention. For purposes of this definition of "Announcement Event," (A) the remainder of the definition of "Merger Event" in Section 12.1(b) of the Equity Definitions following the definition of "Reverse Merger" therein shall be disregarded and (B) "Tender Offer" shall mean such term as defined under Section 12.1(d) of the Equity Definitions as modified under the caption "Tender Offer" above. |
| Valid Third Party Entity: | In respect of any transaction, any third party that has a bona fide intent to enter into or consummate such transaction or event (or any affiliate or agent of such party) (it being understood and agreed that in determining whether such third party has such a bona fide intent, the Calculation Agent may take into consideration the effect of the relevant announcement by such third party on the Shares and/or options relating to the Shares). |
| Consequences of |  |
| Announcement Events: | Modified Calculation Agent Adjustment as set forth in Section 12.3(d) of the Equity Definitions; *provided* that, in respect of an Announcement Event, (w) references to "Tender Offer" shall be replaced by references to "Announcement Event" and references to "Tender Offer Date" shall be replaced by references to "date of such Announcement Event", (x) the words "whether within a commercially reasonable (as determined by the Calculation Agent) period of time prior to or after the Announcement Event," shall be inserted prior to the word "which" in the seventh line, (y) the fifth and sixth lines shall be deleted in their entirety and replaced |

---

with the words "effect on the Transaction of such Announcement Event solely to account for changes in volatility, expected dividends, stock loan rate or liquidity relevant to the Shares or the Transaction", and (z) for the avoidance of doubt, the Calculation Agent may determine whether the relevant Announcement Event has had a material effect on the Transaction (and, if so, adjust the terms of the Transaction accordingly) on one or more occasions on or after the date of the Announcement Event up to, and including, the Expiration Date, any Early Termination Date and/or any other date of cancellation, it being understood that any adjustment in respect of an Announcement Event shall take into account any earlier adjustment relating to the same Announcement Event. An Announcement Event shall be an "Extraordinary Event" for purposes of the Equity Definitions, to which Article 12 of the Equity Definitions is applicable.

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| Nationalization, Insolvency |  |
| or Delisting: | Cancellation and Payment. In addition to the provisions of Section 12.6(a)(iii) of the Equity 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); if the Shares are immediately re-listed, re-traded or re-quoted on any such exchange or quotation system, such exchange or quotation system shall be deemed to be the Exchange. |
| Limitation on Certain |  |
| Adjustments: | Notwithstanding any provision of the Equity Definitions or this Master Confirmation to the contrary, no adjustment solely to account for changes in volatility, expected dividends, stock loan rate or liquidity relevant to the Shares or to any Transaction as a result of a Potential Adjustment Event or an Extraordinary Event shall increase the Number of Shares for any Component or the Number of Transaction Shares (*provided* that, for the avoidance of doubt, that such limitation shall not apply to adjustments as a result of events having a dilutive or concentrative effect on the Shares). Notwithstanding any provision of the Equity Definitions or this Master Confirmation to the contrary, if the Calculation Agent determines that no such adjustment that it could make in accordance with the preceding sentence will produce a commercially reasonable result, then the Calculation Agent may notify the parties that the consequence of such event shall be the termination of such Transaction, in which case "Cancellation and Payment" will be deemed to apply and any payment to be made by one party to the other shall be calculated in accordance with Section 12.7 of the Equity Definitions. |

---

**Additional Disruption Events:**

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| Change in Law: | Applicable; *provided* that Section 12.9(a)(ii) of the Equity Definitions is hereby amended by (i) replacing the phrase "the interpretation" in the third line thereof with the phrase "or public announcement or statement of the formal or informal interpretation," (ii) immediately following the word "Transaction" in clause (X) thereof, adding the phrase "in the manner contemplated by Dealer on the Trade Date.", (iii) 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 or promulgation of |

---

new regulations authorized or mandated by existing statute)" and (iv) adding the words "provided that in the case of clause (Y) hereof, the consequence of such law, regulation or interpretation is applied equally by Dealer to all similar transactions in a non-discriminatory manner;" after the semi-colon in the last line thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Equity Definitions, a Change in Law described in clause (Y) of Section 12.9(a)(ii) of the Equity Definitions shall not constitute a Change in Law and instead shall constitute an Increased Cost of Hedging as described in Section 12.9(a)(vi) of the Equity Definitions.

---

And, for the further avoidance of doubt, any such transactions or assets referred to in phrases (A) or (B) above must be available on commercially reasonable pricing terms."; and (ii) Section 12.9(b)(iii) of the Equity Definitions is hereby amended by inserting in the third line thereof, after the words "to terminate the Transaction", the words "if all of the Transaction is affected by such Hedging Disruption or, if less than all of the Transaction is so affected, the portion of the Transaction affected by such Hedging Disruption"; *provided*, *further* that it shall not be a Hedging Disruption if such inability occurs solely due to the deterioration of the creditworthiness of the Hedging Party. |
| Increased Cost of Stock Borrow: | Applicable; *provided* that Section 12.9(b)(v) of the Equity Definitions is hereby amended by inserting in the eleventh line thereof, after the words "to terminate the Transaction", the words "if all of the Transaction is affected by such Increased Cost of Stock Borrow or, if less than all of the Transaction is so affected, the portion of the Transaction affected by such Increased Cost of Stock Borrow"; *provided further* that no event or set of events shall constitute an Increased Cost of Stock Borrow for the purposes of Section 12.9(a)(viii) of the Equity Definitions to the extent such event or events resulted solely from the deterioration of the creditworthiness of the Hedging Party. |
| Initial Stock Loan |  |
| Rate: | For each Transaction, as specified in the related Supplemental Confirmation. |

Upon receipt of written request from Counterparty following any determination, adjustment or calculation made by Hedging Party hereunder, Hedging Party shall, with reasonable promptness (but in any event within five (5) Scheduled Trading Days from the receipt of such request), provide Counterparty with a written explanation and report (in a commonly used file format for the storage and manipulation of data) describing, in reasonable detail, such determination, adjustment or calculation (including, as applicable, any quotations, market data, information from internal sources used in making such determination, adjustment or calculation, descriptions of the methodology and any assumptions and basis used in making such determination, adjustment or calculation), it being understood that the Hedging Party shall not be obligated to disclose any proprietary or confidential models or proprietary or confidential information used by it for such determination, adjustment or calculation. |

"(iv) In addition to the conditions precedent set forth in Section 2(a)(iii), if applicable, each obligation of each party under Section 2(a)(i) is subject to the condition precedent that no Termination Event has occurred and is continuing with respect to which the other party is the sole Affected Party and with respect to which all outstanding Transactions are Affected Transactions."

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) **Additional Representations, Warranties and Agreements of Counterparty**. Counterparty hereby represents and warrants to, and agrees with, Dealer on the Trade Date of each Transaction and on each other date specified below, that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) <u>Material Nonpublic Information</u>. On the Trade Date and on each date on which Counterparty makes any election, gives any instruction or takes any other action that would reasonably be expected to result in market activity under or in connection with a Transaction, Counterparty is not aware of any material non-public information regarding the Issuer or the Shares. For each Transaction with an Initial Hedging Period, if Counterparty becomes aware of any material non-public information regarding the Issuer at any time subsequent to the Trade Date and prior to being notified by Dealer that Dealer's Initial Hedge Position for such Transaction has been established, Counterparty shall immediately notify Dealer that one or more of the representations and warranties set forth in the Master Confirmation would be untrue at such time, without specifying the nature of such untruth, and Dealer (or its affiliate) shall immediately cease selling Shares in connection with Dealer's Initial Hedge Position.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) <u>Eligible Contract Participant</u>. Counterparty is an "eligible contract participant" (as such term is defined in Section 1a(18) of the Commodity Exchange Act, as amended (the "**CEA**")) because it is a corporation, partnership, proprietorship, organization, trust or other entity and:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) it has total assets in excess of $10,000,000;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) its obligations hereunder are guaranteed, or otherwise supported by a letter of credit or keep well, support or other agreement, by an entity of the type described in Section 1a(18)(A)(i) through (iv), 1a(18)(A)(v)(I), 1a(18)(A)(vii) or 1a(18)(C) of the CEA; 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;(C) it has a net worth in excess of $1,000,000 and has entered into such Transaction in connection with the conduct of its business or to manage the risk associated with an asset or liability owned or incurred or reasonably likely to be owned or incurred by it in the conduct of its business.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) <u>Legal Counsel</u>. Counterparty has been represented and advised by Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP in connection with the review, negotiation and execution of this Master Confirmation and the related Supplemental Confirmation.

Counterparty is not, and after giving effect to application of any Component Prepayment Amount under such Transaction will not be, required to register as an "investment company" as such term is defined in the Investment Company Act.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) <u>No Violation or Conflict</u>. Without limiting any representation contained in Section 3(a)(iii) of the Agreement, Counterparty represents that the execution, delivery and performance of the Master Confirmation, the related Supplemental Confirmation and any related Trade Notification and any other documentation relating to the Agreement to which it is a party do not (x) violate or conflict with any of the terms or provisions of any stockholders' agreement, lockup agreement, registration rights agreement or co-sale agreement binding on Counterparty or affecting Counterparty or any of its assets (including, without limitation, the Stockholders Agreement, dated as of January 1, 2022, among the Issuer, Leon D. Black, Marc J. Rowan, Joshua J. Harris and the other persons party thereto) or (y) violate any provision of any law, rule, regulation, order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree, determination or award presently in effect having applicability to Counterparty. 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 Master Confirmation and any Transactions hereunder, except, in the case of filings, for such filings as have been or will be timely made; *provided* that Counterparty makes no representation or warranty regarding any such requirement that is applicable generally to the ownership of equity securities by Dealer or any of its affiliates solely as a result of it or any of such affiliates being financial institutions and/or broker-dealers.

of, or granted any option with respect to, any of the Collateral or (z) entered into or consented to any agreement (other than, in the case of clause (I), this Master Confirmation) (I) that restricts in any manner the rights of any present or future owner of any Collateral with respect thereto or (II) pursuant to which any person other than Counterparty, Dealer and any securities intermediary through whom any of the Collateral is held (but in the case of any such securities intermediary only in respect of Collateral held through it) has or will have control (as defined in Section 3(a)(ii) hereof) in respect of any Collateral.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(E) Counterparty has not performed and will not perform any acts that might prevent the Collateral Agent from enforcing any of the terms of Section 3 hereof or that might limit the Collateral Agent in any such enforcement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(F) Counterparty is organized as a limited liability company in the State of Delaware and its name is as it appears on the signature page hereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vii) <u>Further Assurances</u>. From time to time from and after the Trade Date through the Settlement Date for the final Component or the Cash Settlement Payment Date, as the case may be, Counterparty (i) shall use its reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things reasonably necessary, proper and advisable to consummate and make effective as promptly as reasonably practicable the transactions contemplated by the Agreement, this Master Confirmation, the related Supplemental Confirmation and any related Trade Notification in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof and thereof, including (A) using reasonable best efforts to remove any legal impediment to the consummation of such transactions and (B) the execution and delivery of all such deeds, agreements, assignments and further instruments of transfer and conveyance necessary, proper or advisable to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated by the Agreement, this Master Confirmation, the related Supplemental Confirmation and any related Trade Notification in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof and thereof and (ii) shall not give consents, waivers or ratifications, or take other similar actions in connection with the Collateral that could reasonably be expected to impair the Collateral Agent's rights under this Master Confirmation or diminish its control over the Collateral.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(viii) <u>Notice</u>. Counterparty shall, upon obtaining knowledge of the occurrence of any Potential Event of Default in respect of which it would be the Defaulting Party, or a Termination Event in respect of which it would be an Affected Party, 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;(ix) <u>Bankruptcy Code Affiliate Status</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(x) <u>Share Sales</u>. From the date three months prior to the Trade Date until the Hedge Completion Date or, if an Early Termination Event (as defined in Section 3(a)(i) hereof) occurs, from the date of such Early Termination Event until the date that Dealer, in its commercially reasonable discretion and acting in good faith, notifies Counterparty in writing that sales of Shares are permissible, neither Counterparty nor any affiliate of Counterparty nor any person who would be considered to be the same "person" as Counterparty or "act[ing] in concert" with Counterparty (as such terms are used in clauses (a)(2) and (e)(3)(vi) of Rule 144 under the Securities Act) has sold or will, without the written consent of Dealer, sell or hedge (through swaps, options, short sales or otherwise) any long position in, any Shares, except in respect of any Transaction as set forth in the Supplemental Confirmation for such Transaction. Counterparty has not solicited or arranged for the solicitation of, and will not solicit or arrange for the solicitation of, orders to buy Shares in anticipation of or in connection with any sales of Shares that Dealer (or an affiliate of Dealer) may effect in establishing any of Dealer's Initial Hedge Positions. Except as provided herein, Counterparty has not made or arranged for, and will not make or arrange for, any payment to any person in connection with any sales of Shares that Dealer (or an affiliate of Dealer) may effect in establishing any of Dealer's Initial Hedge Positions. Counterparty does not know or have any reason to believe that the Issuer has not complied with the reporting requirements contained in paragraph (c)(1) of Rule 144.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(xi) <u>Issuer Corporate Policy</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) It is entering into such Transaction for its own account and not with a view to the distribution or resale of such Transaction or its rights thereunder except pursuant to a registration statement declared effective under, or an exemption from the registration requirements of, the Securities Act.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) **Schedule Provisions**. The Agreement is further supplemented by the following provisions:

For purposes of such provisions:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) "***Specified Indebtedness***" will have the meaning specified in Section 14 of the Agreement, except that such term shall not include obligations in respect of deposits received in the ordinary course of a party's banking business.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) **Sale of Additional Shares**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(j) **Interpretive Letters**. The parties intend that this Master Confirmation and each Supplemental Confirmation hereunder constitute "binding commitments" (with respect to each Transaction with an Initial Hedging Period) and "Contracts" as described in the letter dated December 14, 1999 submitted by Robert W.

In order to secure the full and punctual observance and performance of all present and future obligations of Counterparty to Dealer under the Agreement (including without limitation all obligations of Counterparty under Sections 2 and 6 of the Agreement), this Master Confirmation and each Transaction hereunder:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Counterparty hereby assigns, pledges and grants to the Collateral Agent, as agent of and for the benefit of Dealer, security interests in and to, and a lien upon and right of set-off against, all of Counterparty's right, title and interest in and to (A) the Pledged Items described in Section 3(b)(ii) hereof and any Pledged Items identified in any certificate delivered by Counterparty pursuant to Section 3(d)(i) hereof; (B) all additions to such Pledged Items (including without limitation any securities, instruments or other property delivered or pledged pursuant to Section 3(c)(i) or 3(d)(i) hereof (such additions, the "**Additions**")); (C) the Collateral Account and all cash, securities (including Shares), investment property, financial assets, and other property that may from time to time be deposited in, credited to, or held or carried in the Collateral Account and all security entitlements with respect to any of the foregoing; and (D) all income, proceeds (as defined in the UCC) and collections received or to be received, or derived or to be derived, now or at any time hereafter from or in connection with the Collateral described in clauses (A) through (C) above (collectively, the "**Collateral**").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) On or prior to the Trade Date of such Transaction, Counterparty shall deliver to the Collateral Agent in pledge hereunder Eligible Collateral consisting of a number of Shares equal to the Number of Transaction Shares for such Transaction (the "**Initial Pledged Securities**"). Such Shares shall be in book-entry form

without any restrictive legends, and shall be registered in the name of the DTC's nominee, maintained in the form of book entries on the books of the DTC, and shall be allowed to be settled through DTC's regular book-entry settlement services and deposited into the Collateral Account. As used herein, "DTC" means The Depository Trust Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) The Security Interests are granted as security only and shall not subject the Collateral Agent or Dealer to, or transfer or in any way affect or modify, any obligation or liability of Counterparty or the Issuer with respect to any of the Collateral or any transaction in connection therewith.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) The parties hereto expressly agree that the Collateral Account is a securities account and all rights, assets and property at any time held therein or credited thereto as Collateral hereunder shall be treated as financial assets within the meaning of Article 8 of the UCC. To the extent that the Collateral Agent acts in the capacity of a securities intermediary in respect of any of the Collateral hereunder, it hereby agrees, in such capacity, to comply with any "entitlement order" (as defined in Section 8-102 of the UCC) originated by the Collateral Agent or Dealer relating to such Collateral without further consent by Counterparty or any other person. Counterparty consents to the foregoing agreement by the Collateral Agent in its capacity as securities intermediary. Each of the Collateral Agent (acting solely in its capacity as secured party and not as securities intermediary) and Dealer hereby covenants with Counterparty, solely among themselves and for the benefit of Counterparty, that it will not originate entitlement orders concerning the Collateral, except in accordance with the Agreement and this Master Confirmation. The foregoing covenant is for the benefit of Counterparty only and will not be deemed to constitute a limitation on Dealer's or the Collateral Agent's right, as between the Collateral Agent (in its capacity as securities intermediary) and Dealer and the Collateral Agent (as the secured parties hereunder), to originate entitlement orders with respect to the Collateral or on the Collateral Agent's obligation (in its capacity as securities intermediary) to comply with those entitlement orders.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) If such Transaction has an Initial Hedging Period, on or promptly after the Hedge Completion Date, if the Number of Transaction Shares as specified in the related Trade Notification is less than the Initial Pledged Securities, the Collateral Agent shall release to Counterparty the excess (if any) of (x) the Initial Pledged Securities held by the Collateral Agent as Collateral hereunder over (y) the Number of Transaction Shares as specified in the related Trade Notification.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) **Certain Covenants of Counterparty**. Counterparty agrees that, so long as any of Counterparty's obligations under the Agreement (including without limitation all obligations of Counterparty under Sections 2 and 6 of the Agreement), this Master Confirmation and any Transaction hereunder remains outstanding (other than contingent indemnification obligations for which no claim has been asserted):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Counterparty shall ensure at all times that a Collateral Event of Default shall not occur, and shall pledge additional Collateral in the manner described in Sections 3(d)(i) and 3(d)(ii) hereof as necessary to cause such requirement to be met.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Counterparty shall, at the expense of Counterparty and in such manner and form as Dealer or the Collateral Agent may reasonably require, give, execute, deliver, file and record any financing statement, notice, instrument, document, agreement or other papers that may be necessary or desirable in order to (A) create, preserve, perfect, substantiate or validate any security interest granted pursuant hereto, (B) create or maintain control with respect to any such security interests in any investment property or (C) enable the Collateral Agent to exercise and enforce its rights and the rights of Dealer hereunder with respect to such security interest. Counterparty hereby authorizes the Collateral Agent to file such financing statements, naming Counterparty as debtor and providing such description of Collateral, as the Collateral Agent deems necessary or advisable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) Counterparty shall warrant and defend Counterparty's title to the Collateral, subject to the rights of the Collateral Agent and Dealer, against the claims and demands of all Persons. The Collateral Agent and Dealer (or, as they may agree, one of them) may elect, but without an obligation to do so, to discharge any Lien of any third party on any of the Collateral.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) Counterparty agrees that Counterparty shall not change any of (A) Counterparty's name, or (B) Counterparty's location, unless in any such case (x) Counterparty shall have given the Collateral Agent not less than 30 days' prior notice thereof and (y) such change shall not cause any of the Security Interests to become unperfected, cause Dealer to cease to have control in respect of any of the Security Interests in any Collateral consisting of investment property or subject any Collateral to any other Lien.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) Counterparty agrees that Counterparty shall not (A) create or permit to exist any Lien (other than the Security Interests) or any Transfer Restriction (other than the Existing Transfer Restrictions) upon or with respect to the Collateral, (B) sell or otherwise dispose of, or grant any option with respect to, any of the Collateral or (C) enter into or consent to (x) any agreement (other than this Master Confirmation or any Control Agreement referred to in Section 3(d)(ii)(C)) that restricts in any manner the rights of any present or future owner of any Collateral with respect thereto or (y) any agreement (other than any Control Agreement referred to in Section 3(d)(ii)(C) hereof among the Collateral Agent and its affiliates) pursuant to which any Person other than Counterparty, the Collateral Agent, Dealer and any securities intermediary through which any of the Collateral is held (but, in the case of any such securities intermediary, only in respect of Collateral held through it) has or will have control in respect of any Collateral.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) **Administration of the Collateral and Valuation of the Securities**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Counterparty may pledge hereunder additional Collateral acceptable to Dealer at any time by delivery of such Collateral pursuant to subsection (ii) below. Concurrently with the delivery of any additional Eligible Collateral, Counterparty shall deliver to the Collateral Agent a certificate of an Authorized Officer of Counterparty substantially in the form of Exhibit C hereto and dated the date of such delivery, (A) identifying the additional items of Eligible Collateral being pledged and (B) certifying that with respect to such items of additional Eligible Collateral the representations and warranties contained in Section 2(f)(vi) hereof are true and correct with respect to such Eligible Collateral on and as of the date thereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Any delivery of any securities or security entitlements as Collateral to the Collateral Agent by Counterparty shall be effected (A) in the case of Collateral consisting of certificated securities registered in the name of Counterparty, by delivery of certificates representing such securities to the Collateral Agent, accompanied by any required transfer tax stamps, and in suitable form for transfer by delivery or accompanied by duly executed instruments of transfer or assignment in blank (including any related documentation required by the transfer agent for such securities in connection with effecting or registering transfer), with signatures appropriately guaranteed, all in form and substance satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, (B) in the case of Collateral consisting of uncertificated securities registered in the name of Counterparty, by transmission by Counterparty of an instruction to the issuer of such securities instructing such issuer to register such securities in the name of the Collateral Agent or its nominee, accompanied by any required transfer tax stamps, and the issuer's compliance with such instructions, (C) in the case of securities in respect of which security entitlements are held by Counterparty through a securities intermediary other than the Collateral Agent, by the crediting of such securities, accompanied by any required transfer tax stamps, to a securities account of the Collateral Agent or Counterparty at such securities intermediary or, at the option of the Collateral Agent, at another securities intermediary satisfactory to the Collateral Agent and, if such securities account is an account of Counterparty, the execution by such securities intermediary, Counterparty and the Collateral Agent of a Control Agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Collateral Agent and (D) in the case of securities in respect of which security entitlements are held by Counterparty through the Collateral Agent as Counterparty's securities intermediary, by the grant of the Security Interests hereunder and the crediting of such security entitlements to the Collateral Account. Counterparty hereby consents to, and agrees to be bound by, any Control Agreement referred to in clause (C) above, including without limitation the agreement of any securities intermediary to comply with entitlement orders of the Collateral Agent pursuant thereto.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) If on any Scheduled Trading Day the Collateral Agent determines that a Collateral Event of Default shall have occurred, the Collateral Agent shall promptly notify Counterparty of such determination by telephone call to an Authorized Officer of Counterparty followed by a written confirmation of such call.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) If on any Scheduled Trading Day the Collateral Agent determines that no Early Termination Event or failure by Counterparty to meet any of Counterparty's obligations under Section 3(c) or 3(d) hereof has occurred and is continuing, Counterparty may obtain the release from the Security Interests of any Collateral upon delivery to the Collateral Agent of a written notice from an Authorized Officer of Counterparty indicating the items of Collateral to be released so long as, after such release, no Collateral Event of Default shall have occurred.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) The Collateral Agent may at any time or from time to time following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Early Termination Event, in its sole discretion, or otherwise upon agreement of the parties, cause any or all of the Collateral that is registered in the name of Counterparty or Counterparty's nominee to be transferred of record into the name of the Collateral Agent or the Collateral Agent's nominee. Counterparty shall promptly give to the Collateral Agent copies of any notices or other communications received by Counterparty with respect to Collateral that is registered, or held through a securities intermediary, in the name of Counterparty or Counterparty's nominee and the Collateral Agent shall promptly give to Counterparty copies of notices and communications received by the Collateral Agent with respect to Collateral that is registered, or held through a securities intermediary, in the name of the Collateral Agent or its nominee; *provided* that (A) the Collateral Agent shall only be required to deliver such notices or other communications as have actually been received by it in respect of the Collateral and (B) the Collateral Agent shall only be required to make such deliveries as quickly as reasonably practicable after its receipt of such notices or other communications; *provided*, *further*, that proxies, powers of attorney, consents, ratifications and waivers in respect of any of the Collateral that is registered, or held through a securities intermediary, in the name of the Collateral Agent or its nominee shall be subject to Section 3(e)(ii) hereof and shall not be subject to this Section 3(d)(v). Except as specifically set forth herein, the Collateral Agent shall have no further obligation to ascertain, or to notify Counterparty of, the occurrence of any events or actions concerning Collateral that is registered, or held through a securities intermediary, in the name of the Collateral Agent or its nominee and the Collateral Agent shall not be deemed to assume any such further obligation as a result of its establishment of any internal procedures with respect to any securities in its possession.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi) Counterparty agrees that Counterparty shall forthwith upon demand pay to the Collateral Agent:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) the amount of any taxes that the Collateral Agent or Dealer may have been required to pay by reason of the Security Interests or to free any of the Collateral from any Lien thereon; *provided* that the Collateral Agent or Dealer, as the case may be, shall use reasonable efforts to notify Counterparty in writing of the amount of such taxes upon a determination by the Collateral Agent or Dealer of its intent to pay such taxes prior to the payment thereof, and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) the amount of any and all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, including the reasonable fees and disbursements of outside counsel and of any other experts, that the Collateral Agent or Dealer may incur in connection with (1) the enforcement of this Section 3, including such expenses as are incurred to preserve the value of the Collateral and the validity, perfection, rank and value of the Security Interests, (2) the collection, sale or other disposition of any of the Collateral, (3) the exercise by the Collateral Agent of any of the rights conferred upon it hereunder or (4) any Early Termination Event.

Any such amount not paid on demand shall bear interest (computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and payable for the actual number of days elapsed) at a rate per annum equal to 2% *plus* the rate announced from time to time by Dealer as its prime rate.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) **Income and Voting Rights in Collateral**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Subject to Section 3(d)(iv), the Collateral Agent shall have the right to receive and retain as Collateral hereunder all proceeds of the Collateral, excluding interest ("**Interest Proceeds**"); *provided* that the Collateral Agent shall have the right to receive and retain as Collateral hereunder any and all proceeds of the Collateral, including without limitation any Interest Proceeds, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Early Termination Event (such proceeds, in either case, "**Retained Proceeds**"), and

Counterparty shall take all such action as the Collateral Agent shall deem necessary or appropriate to give effect to such right. All such Retained Proceeds shall be received in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and Dealer and, if the Collateral Agent so directs, shall be segregated from other funds of Counterparty and shall, forthwith upon demand by the Collateral Agent, be paid over to the Collateral Agent as Collateral in the same form as received (with any necessary endorsement). After all Early Termination Events have been cured, the Collateral Agent's right to retain Interest Proceeds under this Section 3(e)(i) shall cease and the Collateral Agent shall pay over to Counterparty any such Collateral consisting of Interest Proceeds retained by it during the continuance of any such Early Termination Event.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Unless an Early Termination Event shall have occurred and be continuing, Counterparty shall have the right, from time to time, to vote and to give consents, ratifications and waivers with respect to the Collateral, and the Collateral Agent shall promptly notify Counterparty in accordance with its customary and then-existing procedures after its receipt of any proxies, powers of attorney, consents, ratifications or waivers in respect of any of the Collateral and, upon receiving a written request from Counterparty stating that no Early Termination Event shall have occurred and be continuing, deliver to Counterparty or as specified in such request such proxies, powers of attorney, consents, ratifications and waivers in respect of any of the Collateral that is registered, or held through a securities intermediary, in the name of the Collateral Agent or its nominee as shall be specified in such request; *provided, however*, that (A) the Collateral Agent shall only be required to deliver such proxies, powers of attorneys, consents, ratifications and waivers as have actually been received by it in respect of the Collateral and (B) the Collateral Agent shall only be required to make such deliveries as quickly as reasonably practicable after its receipt of the relevant documents and the written request.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) If an Early Termination Event shall have occurred and be continuing, the Collateral Agent shall have the right, to the extent permitted by law, and Counterparty shall take all such action as may be reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent and necessary or appropriate to give effect to such right, to vote and to give consents, ratifications and waivers, and to take any other action with respect to any or all of the Collateral with the same force and effect as if the Collateral Agent were the absolute and sole owner thereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) **Remedies upon Early Termination Events**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) If any Early Termination Event shall have occurred and be continuing, the Collateral Agent may exercise on behalf of Dealer all the rights of a secured party under the UCC (whether or not in effect in the jurisdiction where such rights are exercised) and, in addition, without being required to give any notice, except as may be required by mandatory provisions of law, may, if a Counterparty Payment Event (as defined in Section 4(i) hereof) occurs and any Counterparty Payment Amount (as defined in Section 4(i) hereof) has not been paid by 12:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date on which it is due: (A) deliver all Collateral consisting of Shares or Converted Property (as defined in Section 4(i) hereof), but not in excess of the number thereof that Counterparty is obligated to deliver pursuant to Section 4(i) hereof, to an affiliate of Dealer designated by Dealer on the date such Shares are required to be delivered hereunder in satisfaction of Counterparty's obligations to deliver Shares under such Section 4(i) (such delivery, a "**Self-Delivery**"), whereupon such affiliate shall hold such Shares absolutely and free from any claim or right of whatsoever kind, including any equity or right of redemption of Counterparty that may be waived or any other right or claim of Counterparty, and Counterparty, to the extent permitted by law, hereby specifically waives all rights of redemption, stay or appraisal that Counterparty has or may have under any law now existing or hereafter adopted; and (B) if such Self-Delivery shall be insufficient to satisfy in full all of the obligations of Counterparty under the Agreement or hereunder, sell all of the remaining Collateral, or such lesser portion thereof as may be necessary to generate proceeds sufficient to satisfy in full all of the obligations of Counterparty under the Agreement or hereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Counterparty hereby irrevocably appoints the Collateral Agent as Counterparty's true and lawful attorney (which power of attorney is coupled with an interest), with full power of substitution, in the name of Counterparty, the Collateral Agent or Dealer or otherwise, for the sole use and benefit of the Collateral Agent and Dealer, but at the expense of Counterparty, to the extent permitted by law, to exercise, at any time and from time to time while an Early Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, all or any of the following powers with respect to all or any of the Collateral:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) to demand, sue for, collect, receive and give acquittance for any and all monies due or to become due upon or by virtue thereof,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) to settle, compromise, compound, prosecute or defend any action or proceeding with respect thereto,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(C) to sell, transfer, assign or otherwise deal in or with the same or the proceeds or avails thereof, as fully and effectually as if the Collateral Agent were the absolute owner thereof and in connection therewith, to make all necessary deeds, bills of sale, instruments of assignment, transfer or conveyance of the property, and all instructions and entitlement orders in respect of the property thus to be (or that is being or has been) sold, transferred, assigned or otherwise dealt in, and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(D) to extend the time of payment of any or all thereof and to make any allowance and other adjustments with reference thereto;

*provided* that the Collateral Agent shall give Counterparty not less than one day's prior written notice of the time and place of any sale or other intended disposition of any of the Collateral, except any Collateral that threatens to decline speedily in value, including without limitation equity securities, or is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market. The Collateral Agent and Counterparty agree that such notice constitutes "reasonable authenticated notification" within the meaning of Section 9-611 of the UCC. If so requested by the Collateral Agent, by Dealer or by any buyer of the Collateral or a portion thereof, Counterparty shall further ratify and confirm any action taken pursuant to such power of attorney by executing and delivering to the Collateral Agent, to Dealer or to such buyer or buyers at the expense of Counterparty all proper deeds, bills of sale, instruments of assignment, conveyance or transfer, releases, instructions and entitlement orders as may be designated in any such request.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) Counterparty recognizes that Dealer may choose or be required under applicable law to effect a sale of all or a part of the Collateral by means of one or more private sales, and that the purchasers in such private sales may be obliged to agree, among other things, to acquire such Collateral for their own account and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof except pursuant to a registration statement declared effective under, or an exemption from the registration requirements of, the Securities Act. Counterparty agrees that private sales so made may be at prices and other terms less favorable to the seller than if such Collateral were sold at public sales, and that Dealer has no obligation to delay sale of any such Collateral for the period of time necessary to permit a public sale thereof, including without limitation to allow the issuer of such Collateral, even if such issuer would agree, to register such Collateral for public sale under such applicable securities laws. Counterparty agrees that private sales made under the foregoing circumstances shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) Counterparty hereby (i) acknowledges that selling or otherwise disposing of Collateral consisting of Shares in accordance with the restrictions set forth in Section 4(a) and the other provisions of this Master Confirmation may result in prices and terms less favorable to the Collateral Agent and/or Dealer than those that could be obtained by selling or otherwise disposing of any such Shares at one time in a single transaction and (ii) agrees and acknowledges that no method of sale or other disposition of the available portion of any such Shares shall be deemed commercially unreasonable because of any action taken or not taken by the Collateral Agent and/or Dealer to comply with such restrictions. For the avoidance of doubt, the inability of the Collateral Agent and/or Dealer to acquire, receive or exercise rights with respect to Collateral consisting of Shares at any time as a result of Section 4(a) below shall not preclude the Collateral Agent and/or Dealer from taking such action at a later time when such inability no longer exists. Notwithstanding any provision of this Master Confirmation to the contrary, none of the Collateral Agent or Dealer shall become the record or beneficial owner, or otherwise have any rights as a holder, of any Collateral consisting of Shares that the Collateral Agent and/or Dealer is not entitled to exercise any other remedies in respect of at any time until such time as the Collateral Agent and/or Dealer is permitted to exercise such remedies in respect thereof pursuant to the limitations set forth in Section 4(a).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) **The Collateral Agent**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Dealer hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Collateral Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Section 3 as are delegated to the Collateral Agent by the terms hereof, together with all such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) The obligations of the Collateral Agent hereunder are only those expressly set forth in this Section 3.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) The Collateral Agent may consult with legal counsel, independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) Neither the Collateral Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in connection with this Section 3 (A) with the consent or at the request of Dealer or (B) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Collateral Agent shall not incur any liability by acting in reliance upon any notice, consent, certificate, statement or other writing (which may be a bank wire, telex or similar writing) believed by it to be genuine or to be signed by the proper party or parties.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) Counterparty shall indemnify the Collateral Agent against any cost, expense (including reasonable outside counsel fees and disbursements), claim, demand, action, loss or liability (except such as result from the Collateral Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct) that the Collateral Agent may suffer or incur in connection with this Section 3 or any action taken or omitted by the Collateral Agent under this Section 3. This section shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi) Beyond the exercise of reasonable care in the custody thereof, the Collateral Agent shall have no duty as to any Collateral in its possession or control or in the possession or control of any agent, bailee, clearing corporation, or securities intermediary, or any income thereon or as to the preservation of rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto. The Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Collateral if the Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which it accords its own property, and shall not be liable or responsible for any loss or damage to any of the Collateral, or for any diminution in the value thereof, by reason of the act or omission of any agent, bailee, clearing corporation or securities intermediary selected by the Collateral Agent in good faith (or selected by an agent, bailee, clearing corporation or securities intermediary so selected by the Collateral Agent or by any agent, bailee, clearing corporation or securities intermediary selected in accordance with this parenthetical phrase).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vii) Any corporation or association into which the Collateral Agent may be converted or merged, or with which it may be consolidated, or to which it may sell or transfer its agency business and assets as a whole or substantially as a whole, or any corporation or association resulting from any such conversion, sale, merger, consolidation or transfer to which it is a party, shall, subject to the prior written consent of Dealer, be and become a successor Collateral Agent hereunder and vested with all of the title to the Collateral and all of the powers, discretions, immunities, privileges and other matters as was its predecessor without, except as provided above, the execution or filing of any instrument or any further act, deed or conveyance on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) **Miscellaneous**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Any securities intermediary that executes a Control Agreement and its successors and assigns shall be entitled to rely on the consent and agreement of Counterparty in Section 3(d)(ii) as if such consent had been given directly to, and such agreement had been made directly with, such securities intermediary.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) As to Pledged Items located in any jurisdiction other than the State of New York, the Collateral Agent on behalf of Dealer shall have, in addition to any rights under the laws of the State of New York, all of the rights to which a secured party is entitled under the laws of such other jurisdiction. The parties hereto hereby agree that the securities intermediary's jurisdiction (within the meaning of Section 8-110(e) of the UCC) with respect to the Collateral Agent, insofar as it acts as a securities intermediary hereunder or in respect hereof, is the State of New York.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) **No Right to Rehypothecate Securities**. So long as no Early Termination Event has occurred, Dealer shall not have the right to sell, pledge, rehypothecate, assign, invest, use, commingle or otherwise dispose of, or otherwise use in its business, any Collateral.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(j) **Termination of Security Interest**. The rights hereby granted by Counterparty in the Collateral shall cease, terminate and be void upon fulfilment of all of the obligations of Counterparty under each Transaction hereunder (other than contingent indemnification obligations for which no claim has been asserted). Any Collateral remaining at the time of such termination shall be fully released and discharged from the Security Interests and delivered to Counterparty by the Collateral Agent, all at the request and expense of Counterparty, and the Collateral Agent and Dealer agree to execute and deliver all termination and releases, UCC-3 termination statements, termination notices under any Control Agreements and any other documents of release as reasonably requested by Counterparty to evidence and effectuate such termination, all at the expense of Counterparty.

4. **MISCELLANEOUS:**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) **Limit on Beneficial Ownership**. Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, Dealer may not take delivery of any Shares deliverable hereunder or exercise remedies as described in Section 3 hereof in respect of Shares constituting Collateral (any such exercise, delivery or exercise of remedies, a "**Share Acquisition**") and Automatic Physical Settlement shall not apply to the extent (but only to the extent) that, after such Share Acquisition, (i) the Section 16 Percentage would exceed 7.5%, or (ii) the Share Amount would exceed the <u>Applicable Share</u> Limit. Any purported Share Acquisition hereunder shall be void and have no effect to the extent (but only to the extent) that, after such Share Acquisition, (i) the Section 16 Percentage would exceed 7.5%, or (ii) the Share Amount would exceed the <u>Applicable Share</u> Limit. If any Share Acquisition hereunder is not made, in whole or in part, as a result of this provision, Counterparty's obligations in respect of such Share Acquisition shall not be extinguished and Counterparty shall fulfill such obligations as promptly as practicable after, but in no event later than one Scheduled Trading Day after, Dealer gives notice to Counterparty that, after such Share Acquisition, (i) the Section 16 Percentage would not exceed 7.5%, and (ii) the Share Amount would not exceed the <u>Applicable Share Limit.</u> "**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 which Dealer 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. 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 <u>or</u> regulatory order (including, without limitation, under the Investment Company Act) <u>or any organizational documents of the Issuer or any agreement to which Counterparty is a party that are, in each case,</u> applicable to ownership of Shares ("**Applicable <u>Restrictions</u>**"), owns, beneficially owns, constructively owns, controls, holds the power to vote or otherwise meets a relevant definition of ownership of under <u>any</u> Applicable <u>Restriction</u>, as determined by Dealer in its reasonable discretion. The "**<u>Applicable Share</u>** **Limit**" means <u>a number of Shares equal to (A</u>) the minimum number of Shares that, in Dealer's reasonable judgment based on advice of counsel, <u>could</u> give rise to reporting or registration obligations (except for any filing requirements on Form 13F, Schedule 13D or Schedule 13G under the Exchange Act, in each case, as in effect on the relevant Trade Date, applicable to a Section 16 Percentage of 7.5% or less) or other requirements (including obtaining prior approval from any person or entity) of a Dealer Person, or would result in an adverse effect on a Dealer Person (including, without limitation, any limitation or restrictions on Dealer's or any of its Affiliates ability to enter into principal transactions with the Issuer or its Affiliates or deal in their securities, or being deemed an "Affiliated Person" (as defined in the Investment Company Act) of the Issuer or any of its affiliates),

under <u>any</u> Applicable <u>Restriction</u>, as determined by Dealer in its reasonable discretion, *minus* (<u>B</u>) 1% of the number of Shares outstanding.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) **Right to Extend**. Dealer may postpone, in whole or in part, any Valuation Date or any other date of valuation or delivery (in which event the Calculation Agent shall make appropriate adjustments to the Number of Shares with respect to one or more Components of any Transaction hereunder) if Dealer determines, in its reasonable judgment and, in respect of clause (ii) below, based on advice of counsel, that such extension is reasonably necessary or appropriate to (i) preserve Dealer's commercially reasonable hedging or hedge unwind activity hereunder in light of existing liquidity conditions (but only if there is a material decrease in liquidity relative to the applicable Trade Date) or (ii) to enable Dealer to effect purchases or sales of Shares in connection with its commercially reasonable hedging, hedge unwind or settlement activity hereunder in a manner that is in compliance with applicable legal, regulatory or self-regulatory requirements, or with related policies and procedures applicable to Dealer (so long as such policies and procedures are related to legal, regulatory or self-regulatory issues and are generally applicable in similar situations and applied to similar transactions in a non-discriminatory manner); *provided* that no such Valuation Date or other date of valuation or delivery may be postponed more than a number of Scheduled Trading Days after the original Valuation Date or other date of valuation or delivery, as the case may be, equal to the Number of Components for the relevant Transaction.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) The parties hereto agree and acknowledge than any transaction or event that would have been (x) a Transformative Transaction if the Transformative Transaction Percentage were less than 35% or (y) a Tender

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) **Reserved.**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) **Transfer or Assignment**. Counterparty may not transfer any of its rights or obligations under any Transaction hereunder without the prior written consent of Dealer. Dealer may transfer or assign all or any part of its rights or obligations under any Transaction hereunder (A) without Counterparty's consent, to any affiliate of Dealer (1) that has a rating for its long term, unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness that is equal to or better than Dealer's credit rating at the time of such transfer or assignment, or (2) whose obligations hereunder will be guaranteed, pursuant to the terms of a customary guarantee in a form used by Dealer generally for similar transactions, by Dealer or Dealer's ultimate parent, (B) with Counterparty's consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) to any other third party with a rating for its long term, unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness equal to or better than the lesser of (1) the credit rating of Dealer at the time of the transfer and (2) A- by Standard and Poor's Rating Group, Inc. or its successor ("**S&P**"), or A3 by Moody's Investor Service, Inc. ("**Moody's**") or, if either S&P or Moody's ceases to rate such debt, at least an equivalent rating or better by a substitute rating agency mutually agreed by Counterparty and Dealer, or (C) with Counterparty's consent (in its sole discretion) to any other third party; *provided* that, in each case (u) Counterparty will not be required, as a result of such transfer or assignment, to pay or deliver to the transferee or assignee on any payment or delivery date any payment or delivery greater than an amount that Counterparty would have been required to pay Dealer in the absence of such transfer or assignment (including, without limitation, pursuant to Section 2(d)(i)(4) of the Agreement), (v) Counterparty will not, as a result of such transfer or assignment, receive from the transferee or assignee on any payment or delivery date any payment or delivery less than the amount that Counterparty would have been entitled to receive from Dealer in the absence of such transfer or assignment, (w) such transfer or assignment will not cause a deemed exchange for Counterparty of such Transaction under Section 1001 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, (x) the transferee or assignee shall provide Counterparty with a complete and accurate U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8 or W-9 (as applicable), and shall make such Payee Tax Representations and provide such tax documentation as may be reasonably requested by Counterparty to permit Counterparty to determine that the results described in clauses (u), (v) and (w) will not occur upon or after such transfer and assignment, (y) no Event of Default, Potential Event of Default or Termination Event will occur as a result of such transfer or assignment and (z) Dealer shall be responsible for all reasonable costs and expenses, including reasonable counsel fees, incurred by Counterparty in connection with such transfer or assignment. Dealer shall provide prompt written notice to Counterparty following any such transfer or assignment. If at any time at which (A) the Section 16 Percentage exceeds 7.5%, (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 any Transaction hereunder to a third party on pricing terms reasonably acceptable to Dealer and within a time period reasonably acceptable to Dealer and in a manner that Dealer determines in its sole reasonable discretion (based on the advice of counsel) is in accordance with applicable law and interpretation (including without limitation the Interpretive Letters) 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 such 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 Terminated Portion, a payment shall be made pursuant to Section 6 of the Agreement as if (1) an Early Termination Date had been designated in respect of a Transaction having terms identical to such Transaction and a Number of Shares equal to the Number of Shares for 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 "**Forward Equity Percentage**" as of any day is the fraction, expressed as a percentage, (A) the numerator of which is the aggregate Number of Transactions Shares for all Transactions hereunder, and (B) the denominator of which is the number of Shares outstanding.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) **Designation by Dealer**. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Master Confirmation to the contrary requiring or allowing Dealer to purchase, sell, receive or deliver any Shares or other securities, 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 make or receive such payment in cash, and otherwise to perform Dealer's obligations in respect of any Transaction hereunder and any such designee may assume such obligations; *provided*, that (x) Counterparty will not be required, as a result of such designation, to pay or deliver to the designee on any payment or delivery date any payment or delivery greater than an amount that Counterparty would have been required to pay Dealer in the absence of such designation (including, without limitation, pursuant to Section 2(d)(i)(4) of the Agreement), and (y) Counterparty will not, as a result of such designation receive from the designee on any payment or delivery date any payment or delivery less than the amount that Counterparty would have been entitled to receive from Dealer in the absence of such designation. Dealer shall be discharged of its obligations to Counterparty to the extent of any such performance.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) **Non-confidentiality**. Dealer and Counterparty agree that Counterparty and Counterparty's employees, representatives, or other agents are authorized to disclose to any and all persons, without limitation of any kind, the U.S. Federal income tax treatment and U.S. Federal income tax structure of any Transaction hereunder and all analyses that have been provided to Counterparty relating to such tax treatment and tax structure.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) **Securities Contract**. The parties hereto intend that (i) Dealer be a financial institution within the meaning of Section 101(22) of the Bankruptcy Code, (ii) the Agreement and this Master Confirmation, together with any Supplemental Confirmations and any related Trade Notification, be a securities contract, as such term is defined in Section 741(7) of the Bankruptcy Code, (iii) each and every transfer of funds, securities and other property under the Agreement and this Master Confirmation (and any Transaction hereunder) be a settlement payment or a margin payment and a transfer, as such terms are used in Section 546(e) of the Bankruptcy Code, (iv) the rights given to Dealer hereunder upon an Event of Default constitute a contractual right to cause the liquidation, termination or acceleration of a securities contract, a contraction right to offset or net out any termination value, payment amount or other transfer obligation and a contractual right under a security agreement or arrangement or other credit enhancement, as such terms are used in Sections 555 and 362(b)(6) of the Bankruptcy Code, and (v) Dealer be entitled to the protections afforded by, among other sections, Sections 362(b)(6), 362(o), 546(e), 548(d)(2), 555 and 561 of the Bankruptcy Code.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) **Payments on Early Termination**. Upon the occurrence or effective designation of an Early Termination Date in respect of any Transaction hereunder or the determination of an amount owed following occurrence of an Extraordinary Event that results in the cancellation or termination of any Transaction hereunder pursuant to Article 12 of the Equity Definitions, if Counterparty would owe any amount to Dealer pursuant to Section 6(d)(ii) of the Agreement or any amount pursuant to Section 12.7 or 12.9 of the Equity Definitions (any such amount, a "**Counterparty Payment Amount**" and such event that would so result in Counterparty owing any such amount, a "**Counterparty Payment Event**"), then, if any Counterparty Payment Amount has not been paid by 12:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date on which it is due, and except to the extent that Dealer proceeds to realize upon the Collateral and to apply the proceeds of such realization to any obligation of Counterparty hereunder and under the Agreement (other than via a Self-Delivery as provided in Section 3(f) hereof), Dealer may elect, at its option, for Counterparty to deliver to Dealer in lieu of any payment of such Counterparty Payment Amount a number of Shares (or, if the Shares have been converted into other securities or property in connection with an Extraordinary Event ("**Converted Property**"), a number or amount of such securities or property) with a value equal to such Counterparty Payment Amount, as determined by the Calculation Agent, in which case the provisions set forth in

Section 3(f) hereof shall apply. Notwithstanding any provision of the Agreement, the Equity Definitions or this Master Confirmation to the contrary, in determining any amount payable upon the occurrence of an Early Termination Date or a cancellation or termination of the Transactions pursuant to Article 12 of the Equity Definitions, Dealer, in its good faith, commercially reasonable discretion, may specify that the party determining such amount shall use a risk bid price or a closing price, volume-weighted average price or other market price for the Shares determined by the Calculation Agent over a period reasonably determined by the Calculation Agent.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(j) **U.S. QFC Mandatory Contractual Requirements.**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) <u>Burden of Proof</u>. After a Dealer Affiliate has become subject to an Insolvency Proceeding, if Counterparty seeks to exercise any Default Right with respect to the Agreement 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;(v) <u>Applicability of Section 4(j)(i)</u>. The requirements of Section 4(j)(i) apply notwithstanding Sections 4(j)(ii) and 4(j)(iii).

This Amendment No. 26 is being filed to reflect (i) the transfer by MJH Partners II LLC of 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock to MJH Partners III LLC, an estate planning vehicle for which Joshua Harris exercises voting and investment control and (ii) the entry into delayed draw variable share forward sale transactions by MJH Partners III LLC which relate to up to 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock.

(the "Bank") pursuant to a Master Confirmation entered into between the Counterparty and the Bank, dated December 11, 2025 (the "Forward Contract"). The Forward Contract obligates the Counterparty to deliver to the Bank, on specified dates in December of 2030 (each, a "Settlement Date"), at the Counterparty's option, up to an aggregate number of shares of the Issuer's Common Stock equal to the number of shares of Common Stock pledged by the Counterparty or, subject to certain conditions, an equivalent amount of cash.

The Counterparty pledged an aggregate of 1,000,000 shares of the Issuer's Common Stock (the "Pledged Shares") to secure its obligations under the Forward Contract. The Counterparty retains ownership and voting and ordinary dividend rights in the Pledged Shares during the term of the pledge (and thereafter if the Counterparty settles the Forward Contract in cash), subject to certain payments the Counterparty may need to make to the Bank with respect to dividends under the terms of the Forward Contract.

Under the terms of the Forward Contract, the Counterparty may, at its election, subject to certain terms and conditions, receive a prepayment from the Bank with respect to some or all portions of the transactions covered by the Forward Contract, equal to the present value as of the relevant funding date of the payment of the Floor Price (as defined below) at maturity of the transactions.

For each of the up to fifteen (15) components of the Forward Contract for which a prepayment has been paid to the Counterparty by the Bank, the number of shares of the Issuer's Common Stock to be delivered to the Bank on each Settlement Date (or on which to base the amount of cash to be delivered to the Bank on such Settlement Date) is to be determined as follows: (a) if the per-share volume weighted average price of the Issuer's Common Stock on the related valuation date (the "Settlement Price") is less than or equal to a floor price that will be determined following a hedging period (the "Floor Price"), the Counterparty will deliver to the Bank the ratable portion of the Pledged Shares to be delivered with respect to each Settlement Date (such number of shares, the "Number of Shares"); (b) if the Settlement Price is between the Floor Price and a cap price that will be determined following a hedging period (the "Cap Price"), the Counterparty will deliver to the Bank a number of shares of the Issuer's Common Stock equal to the Number of Shares multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Floor Price and the denominator of which is the Settlement Price; and (c) if the Settlement Price is greater than the Cap Price, the Counterparty will deliver to the Bank a number of shares of the Issuer's Common Stock equal to the product of (i) the Number of Shares and (ii) a fraction (a) the numerator of which is the sum of (x) the Floor Price and (y) the Settlement Price minus the Cap Price, and (b) the denominator of which is the Settlement Price.

For each of the up to fifteen (15) components of the Forward Contract for which a prepayment has not been paid to the Counterparty by the Bank, the number of shares of the Issuer's Common Stock to be delivered to the Bank on each Settlement Date (or on which to base the amount of cash to be delivered to the Bank on such Settlement Date) is to be determined as follows: (a) if the Settlement Price is greater than the Cap Price, the Bank will pay to the Counterparty the Cap Price multiplied by the Number of Shares, and the Counterparty will deliver to the Bank a number of shares equal to the Number of Shares; (b) if the Settlement Price is less than the Floor Price, the Counterparty will deliver to the Bank a number of shares equal to the Number of Shares, and the Bank will pay to the Counterparty the Floor Price multiplied by the Number of Shares; or (c) if the Settlement Price is between the Floor Price and the Cap Price, no payment or delivery of shares will be made by either party.
