#### Equity Sales Agreement
On October 1, 2025, Curbline Properties Corp. (the "<u>Company</u>") and Curbline Properties LP (the "<u>Operating Partnership</u>") entered into an ATM Equity Offering Sales Agreement (the "<u>Equity Sales Agreement</u>") with Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, BNY Mellon Capital Markets, LLC, BofA Securities, Inc., BTIG, LLC, Capital One Securities, Inc., Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, Jefferies LLC, KeyBanc Capital Markets Inc., Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, Nomura Securities International, Inc. and StoneX Financial Inc., as sales agents (except in the case of Nomura Securities International, Inc. and StoneX Financial Inc.), principals (except in the case of Nomura Securities International, Inc. and StoneX Financial Inc.) and/or forward sellers (except in the case of BTIG, LLC and Capital One Securities, Inc.) (in any such capacity, each an "<u>Agent,</u>" and collectively, the "<u>Agents</u>") and the Forward Purchasers (as defined below). Pursuant to the Equity Sales Agreement, shares of the Company's common stock, $0.01 par value per share, having an aggregate offering price of up to $250,000,000 (the "<u>Shares</u>") may be offered and sold from time to time. Pursuant to the terms of the Equity Sales Agreement, the Agents will act as the Company's sales agents or, when acting as forward sellers (except in the case of BTIG, LLC and Capital One Securities, Inc.), as agents for the relevant Forward Purchaser, in connection with any offerings of Shares. The Company may also sell Shares to an Agent as principal for its own account. The Company also entered into separate master forward confirmations on October 1, 2025 (each, a "<u>Master Forward Confirmation</u>") between the Company and each of Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, The Bank of New York Mellon, Bank of America, N.A., Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, Jefferies LLC, KeyBanc Capital Markets Inc., Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, Nomura Global Financial Products, Inc. and StoneX Financial Inc., each as forward purchaser (in such capacity, each a "<u>Forward Purchaser</u>," and collectively, the "<u>Forward Purchasers</u>").

The sales, if any, of the Shares under the Equity Sales Agreement will be made in "at the market" offerings as defined in Rule 415 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "<u>Securities Act</u>"), including sales made by means of ordinary brokers' transactions on the New York Stock Exchange, or otherwise at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to prevailing market prices or as otherwise agreed to with the applicable Agent.

The Company and the Operating Partnership entered into the Equity Sales Agreement in connection with the filing of the Company's registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-290653), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "<u>Commission</u>") on October 1, 2025, which became immediately effective upon filing, and a prospectus supplement dated October 1, 2025, filed by the Company with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act.

The Equity Sales Agreement contemplates that, in addition to the issuance and sale of the Shares through the Agents, the Company may enter into one or more separate forward sale agreements pursuant to a Master Forward Confirmation and related supplemental confirmations. If we enter into a forward sale agreement with any Forward Purchaser, we expect that such Forward Purchaser or one of its affiliates will attempt to borrow from third parties and sell, through the relevant Agent, acting as sales agent for such Forward Purchaser (in such capacity, a "<u>Forward Seller</u>"), shares of our common stock to hedge such Forward Purchaser's exposure under such forward sale agreement. We will not initially receive any proceeds from any sale of borrowed shares of our common stock through an Agent, acting as Forward Seller.

We currently expect to fully physically settle each forward sale agreement, if any, with the relevant Forward Purchaser on one or more dates specified by us on or prior to the maturity date of such forward sale agreement, in which case we expect to receive aggregate net cash proceeds on each settlement date equal to the number of Shares underlying such forward sale agreement that are being settled multiplied by the relevant forward sale price per share. However, subject to certain exceptions, we may also elect, in our sole discretion, to cash settle or net share settle all or any portion of our obligations under any forward sale agreement, in which case we may not receive any proceeds (in the case of cash settlement) or will not receive any proceeds (in the case of net share settlement), and we may owe cash (in the case of cash settlement) or shares of our common stock (in the case of net share settlement) to the relevant Forward Purchaser.

The Agents are not required to sell any specific number or dollar amount of the Company's common stock, but each Agent will, subject to the terms and conditions of the Equity Sales Agreement, use its commercially reasonable efforts, consistent with its normal trading and sales practices and applicable laws and regulations, to sell the Shares designated by the Company and, in the case of shares of its common stock offered through such Agent as Forward Seller, the relevant Forward Purchaser from time to time. Each Agent will receive from the Company a commission that will not exceed, but may be lower than, 2.0% of the gross sales price of shares of our common stock sold through it as the Company's sales agent. In connection with each forward sale agreement, we will pay the applicable Agent, as Forward Seller, a commission, in the form of a reduction to the initial forward sale price under the related forward sale agreement, at a mutually agreed rate that will not exceed, but may be lower than, 2.0% of the initial forward sale price. The initial forward sale price is based on the gross sales price of the borrowed shares of our common stock sold through such Agent, as Forward Seller, during the applicable forward selling

------

period for such shares, subject to certain adjustments during that period. Under the terms of the Equity Sales Agreement, the Company may also sell shares of its common stock to one or more of the Agents as principal, at a price to be agreed upon at the time of sale. If the Company sells shares of its common stock to one or more of the Agents as principal, it will enter into a separate terms agreement with such Agent or Agents, as the case may be. In any such sale to an Agent as principal, the Company may agree to pay the applicable Agent a commission or underwriting discount that may exceed 2.0% of the gross sales price per share of common stock sold to such Agent, as principal.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds from any sales of Shares or upon physical settlement of any forward sale agreement we may enter into with any of the Forward Purchasers for general corporate purposes, which may include, among other things, funding the acquisition of properties, working capital and capital expenditures, repaying outstanding indebtedness, or a combination of the foregoing.

The foregoing descriptions of the Equity Sales Agreement and the Master Forward Confirmation do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by the full text of the Equity Sales Agreement, including the form of Master Forward Confirmation, which is being filed as Exhibit 1.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

#### Share Repurchase Program
On September 25, 2025, the Company's board of directors authorized a share repurchase program of up to an aggregate purchase price of $250,000,000. Repurchases of common stock under the share repurchase program may be made from time to time in the open market, in privately negotiated purchases, in accelerated share repurchase programs or by any other lawful means. The number of shares of common stock purchased and the timing of any purchases will depend on a number of factors, including the price and availability of common stock and general market conditions.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

Curbline Properties Corp., a Maryland corporation (the "<u>Company</u>"), proposes, subject to the terms and conditions stated herein, to issue and sell from time to time to or through Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, BNY Mellon Capital Markets, LLC, BofA Securities, Inc., BTIG, LLC, Capital One Securities, Inc., Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, Jefferies LLC, KeyBanc Capital Markets Inc., Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, Nomura Securities International, Inc. and StoneX Financial Inc., as sales agents (except in the case of Nomura Securities International, Inc. and StoneX Financial Inc.), principals (except in the case of Nomura Securities International, Inc. and StoneX Financial Inc.) and/or forward sellers (except in the case of BTIG, LLC and Capital One Securities, Inc.) (in any such capacity, each an "<u>Agent,</u>" and collectively, the "<u>Agents</u>") and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, The Bank of New York Mellon, Bank of America, N.A., Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, Jefferies LLC, KeyBanc Capital Markets Inc., Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, Nomura Global Financial Products, Inc. and StoneX Financial Inc., each as forward purchaser (in such capacity, each a "<u>Forward Purchaser</u>," and collectively, the "<u>Forward Purchasers</u>"), shares (the "<u>Shares</u>") of the Company's common stock, $0.01 par value (the "<u>Common Stock</u>"), having an aggregate gross sales price not to exceed $250,000,000, on the terms set forth in this ATM Equity Offering Sales Agreement. For purposes of clarity, it is understood and agreed by the parties hereto that, if Shares (as defined below) are offered or sold through any Agent acting as forward seller for the applicable Forward Purchaser (including without limitation Nomura Securities

------

International, Inc. (acting through BTIG, LLC as agent)), then such Agent, as forward seller, shall be acting as sales agent for such Forward Purchaser with respect to the offering and sale of such Shares, and, except in cases where this Agreement (as defined below) expressly refers to an Agent acting as sales agent for the Company or unless otherwise expressly stated or the context otherwise requires, references in this Agreement to any Agent acting as sales agent shall also be deemed to apply to such Agent when acting as forward seller, *mutatis mutandis*; provided that BTIG, LLC and Capital One Securities, Inc. are not acting as forward sellers. Only an Agent that is, or is affiliated with, a Forward Purchaser may act as forward seller for such Forward Purchaser. For the avoidance of doubt, Nomura Securities International, Inc. (acting through BTIG, LLC as agent) may act as forward seller for Nomura Global Financial Products, Inc.

The Company agrees that whenever it determines to sell Shares directly to an Agent or Agents as principal(s) it will enter into a separate written Terms Agreement (each, a "<u>Terms Agreement</u>"), in substantially the form of Annex I hereto, relating to such sale in accordance with Section 2(j) hereof. References herein to "this Agreement" or to matters contained "herein" or "hereunder", or words of similar import, mean this ATM Equity Offering Sales Agreement and any applicable Terms Agreement.

The Company and Curbline Properties LP, a Delaware limited partnership (the "<u>Operating Partnership</u>") agree that whenever the Company determines to enter into one or more forward stock purchase transactions with any of the Forward Purchasers, the Company and any of the applicable Forward Purchasers will enter into a Supplemental Confirmation (each, a "<u>Supplemental Confirmation</u>"), as contemplated by an executed Master Confirmation with the relevant Forward Purchaser, in substantially the form of Annex II hereto, with such changes as the parties thereto may agree (the "<u>Master Confirmation</u>", together with such Supplemental Confirmation, any additional supplement thereto and the Agreement (as defined in the Master Confirmation) and any other incorporated documents, the "<u>Confirmation</u>"), relating to such sale in accordance with Section 2 hereof. Under each Confirmation, the Company will, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in such Confirmation and in this Agreement, deliver to the applicable Forward Purchaser, or an affiliate thereof (including any Agent affiliated with such Forward Purchaser), up to the maximum number of shares of Common Stock as may be sold in accordance with this Agreement in connection with such Confirmation. In connection with any Confirmation entered into as contemplated by this Agreement, it is contemplated that the applicable Forward Purchaser will attempt to borrow and then offer, through its related Agent, acting as forward seller and sales agent on behalf of such Forward Purchaser, the applicable Shares for sale on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement.

The Company has prepared and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "<u>Commission</u>") an "automatic shelf registration statement," as defined under Rule 405 ("<u>Rule 405</u>") under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "<u>1933 Act</u>") on Form S-3 (File No. 333-290653), covering the public offering and sale of certain securities of the Company, including the Shares, under the 1933 Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (the "<u>1933 Act Regulations</u>"), which automatic shelf registration statement became effective under Rule 462(e) of the 1933 Act Regulations ("<u>Rule 462(e)</u>"). The "Registration Statement", as of any time, means such registration statement as amended by any post-effective amendments thereto at such time, including the exhibits and any schedules thereto at such time, the documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference therein at such time pursuant to Item 12 of Form S-3 under the 1933 Act and the documents otherwise deemed to be a part thereof as of such time pursuant to Rule 430B of the 1933 Act Regulations ("<u>Rule 430B</u>"); *provided, however*, that the term "Registration Statement" without reference to a time means such registration statement as amended by any post-effective amendments thereto as of the time of the first contract of sale for the Shares, which time shall be considered the "new effective date" of the Registration Statement with respect to the Shares within the meaning of paragraph (f)(2) of Rule 430B ("<u>Rule 430B(f)(2)</u>"), including the exhibits and schedules thereto at such time, the documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference therein at such time pursuant to Item 12 of Form S-3 under the 1933 Act and the documents otherwise deemed to be a part thereof as of such time pursuant to Rule 430B. The base prospectus filed as part of such automatic shelf registration statement, as amended in the form in which it has been filed most recently with the Commission in accordance with Section 3(b) or 3(c) hereof, including the documents incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference therein pursuant to Item 12 of Form S-3 under the 1933 Act, is referred to herein as the "<u>Base Prospectus".</u> Promptly after execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Company will prepare and file a prospectus supplement relating to the Shares in accordance with the provisions of Rule 424(b) of the 1933 Act Regulations ("<u>Rule 424(b)</u>"). Such final prospectus supplement, as amended by the prospectus supplement filed most recently with the Commission in accordance with Section 3(b), 3(c) or 3(n) hereof, as the case may be, including the documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference therein pursuant to Item 12 of Form S-3 under the

------

1933 Act, is referred to herein as the "<u>Prospectus Supplement</u>." The Base Prospectus, as amended by the Prospectus Supplement and any applicable pricing supplement thereto, in the form the Base Prospectus, the Prospectus Supplement and any such pricing supplement are first furnished to the Agents for use in connection with the offering and sale of Shares, are collectively referred to herein as the "Prospectus." For purposes of this Agreement, all references to the Registration Statement, any preliminary prospectus or the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto shall be deemed to include the copy filed with the Commission pursuant to its Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval system (or any successor system) ("<u>EDGAR</u>").

As used in this Agreement:

"<u>Applicable Time</u>" means, with respect to any offer and sale of Shares, the time immediately prior to the first contract of sale for such Shares, or such other time as agreed by the Company and the applicable Agents.

"<u>General Disclosure Package</u>" means each Issuer General Use Free Writing Prospectus, if any, issued prior to the Applicable Time, the most recent Prospectus filed with the Commission in accordance with Section 3(b), 3(c) or 3(n) hereof that is distributed to investors prior to the Applicable Time and the number of Shares and the initial offering price per Share, all considered together.

"<u>Issuer Free Writing Prospectus</u>" means any "issuer free writing prospectus," as defined in Rule 433 of the 1933 Act Regulations ("<u>Rule 433</u>"), including, without limitation, any "free writing prospectus" (as defined in Rule 405) relating to the Shares that is (i) required to be filed with the Commission by the Company, (ii) a "road show that is a written communication" within the meaning of Rule 433(d)(8)(i), whether or not required to be filed with the Commission, or (iii) exempt from filing with the Commission pursuant to Rule 433(d)(5)(i) because it contains a description of the Shares or of the offering thereof that does not reflect the final terms, in each case in the form filed or required to be filed with the Commission or, if not required to be filed, in the form retained in the Company's records pursuant to Rule 433(g).

"<u>Issuer General Use Free Writing Prospectus</u>" means any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus approved by the applicable Agents and the Forward Purchasers or, in the case of a specific offer and sale of Shares, the applicable Agents and the Forward Purchasers pursuant to Section 3(l) hereof that is furnished to the Agents or such Agents, as the case may be, for general distribution to investors, as evidenced by communications between the Company and the Agents and the Forward Purchasers or such Agents, as the case may be.

"<u>Issuer Limited Use Free Writing Prospectus</u>" means any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus that is not an Issuer General Use Free Writing Prospectus.

All references in this Agreement to financial statements and schedules and other information which is "contained," "included," "made," "stated" or "referred to" (or other references of like import) in the Registration Statement, any preliminary prospectus or the Prospectus shall be deemed to include all such financial statements and schedules and other information incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, any preliminary prospectus or the Prospectus, as the case may be, prior to the Applicable Time relating to the particular Shares; and all references in this Agreement to amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement, any preliminary prospectus or the Prospectus shall be deemed to include the filing of any document under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "<u>1934 Act</u>"), and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (the "<u>1934 Act Regulations</u>") incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, such preliminary prospectus or the Prospectus, as the case may be, at or after the Applicable Time relating to the particular Shares.

------

Date (as defined in Section 3(o) hereof), each Applicable Time and each Settlement Date (as defined in Section 2(g) hereof) (collectively, a "<u>Representation Date</u>"), and agree with the Agents and the Forward Purchasers, as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) <u>Compliance of the Registration Statement, the Prospectus and Incorporated Documents</u>. The Company meets the requirements for use of Form S-3 under the 1933 Act. The Registration Statement is an automatic shelf registration statement under Rule 405 and the Shares have been and remain eligible for registration by the Company on such automatic shelf registration statement. Each of the Registration Statement and any post-effective amendment thereto has become effective under the 1933 Act. No stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto has been issued under the 1933 Act, no notice of objection of the Commission to the use of the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto pursuant to Rule 401(g)(2) of the 1933 Act Regulations ("<u>Rule 401(g)(2)</u>") has been received by the Company, no order preventing or suspending the use of any preliminary prospectus or the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto has been issued and no proceedings for any of those purposes have been instituted or are pending or, to the Company's knowledge, contemplated. The Company has complied with each request (if any) from the Commission for additional information.

Each of the Registration Statement and any post-effective amendment thereto, at the time of its effectiveness and as of each deemed effective date with respect to the Agents pursuant to Rule 430B(f)(2), complied in all material respects with the requirements of the 1933 Act and the 1933 Act Regulations. Each of any preliminary prospectus and the Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto, at the time it was filed with the Commission, complied in all material respects with the requirements of the 1933 Act and the 1933 Act Regulations and is identical to the electronically transmitted copy thereof filed with the Commission pursuant to EDGAR, except to the extent permitted by Regulation S-T.

The documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, any preliminary prospectus and the Prospectus, when they became effective or at the time they were or hereafter are filed with the Commission, complied and will comply in all material respects with the requirements of the 1934 Act and the 1934 Act Regulations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) <u>Accurate Disclosure</u>. Neither the Registration Statement nor any amendment thereto, at its effective time or at any Settlement Date, contained, contains or will contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted, omits or will omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading. At each Applicable Time, neither (A) the General Disclosure Package nor (B) any individual Issuer Limited Use Free Writing Prospectus, when considered together with the General Disclosure Package, included, includes or will include an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted, omits or will omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. Neither the Prospectus nor any amendment or supplement thereto (including any prospectus wrapper), as of its issue date, at the time of any filing with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) or at any Settlement Date, included, includes or will include an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted, omits or will omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, at the time the Registration Statement became effective or when such documents incorporated by reference were or hereafter are filed with the Commission, as the case may be, when read together with the other information in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus, as the case may be, did not, do not and will not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; *provided, however*, that the representations and warranties in this Section 1(ii) shall not apply to any statements or omissions made in reliance upon and in conformity with the Agent Information (as defined in Section 6(b) of this Agreement).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) <u>Issuer Free Writing Prospectuses</u>. No Issuer Free Writing Prospectus conflicts or will conflict with the information contained in the Registration Statement, any preliminary prospectus or the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, including any document incorporated by reference therein, that has not been superseded or modified. Any offer that is a written communication relating to the Shares made prior to the initial filing of the Registration Statement by the Company or any person acting on

------

its behalf (within the meaning, for this paragraph only, of Rule 163(c) of the 1933 Act Regulations) has been filed with the Commission in accordance with the exemption provided by Rule 163 of the 1933 Act Regulations ("<u>Rule 163</u>") and otherwise complied in all material respects with the requirements of Rule 163, including, without limitation, the legending requirement, to qualify such offer for the exemption from Section 5(c) of the 1933 Act provided by Rule 163.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) <u>Well-Known Seasoned Issuer</u>. (A) At the original effectiveness of the Registration Statement, (B) at the time of the most recent amendment thereto for the purposes of complying with Section 10(a)(3) of the 1933 Act (whether such amendment was by post-effective amendment, incorporated report filed pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the 1934 Act or form of prospectus), (C) at the time the Company or any person acting on its behalf (within the meaning, for this clause only, of Rule 163(c)) made any offer relating to the Shares in reliance on the exemption of Rule 163, (D) at the date of this ATM Equity Offering Sales Agreement and any Terms Agreement, and (E) at each Applicable Time, the Company was and is a "well-known seasoned issuer," as defined in Rule 405.

Section 2. <u>Sale and Delivery of Shares.</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Company agrees to (i) issue and sell Shares through the applicable Agent acting as sales agent of the Company or directly to the applicable Agent or Agents acting as principal(s) from time to time or (ii) enter into a Confirmation with any Forward Purchaser and, in consultation with such Forward Purchaser and its related Agent (which shall be either the same entity as such Forward Purchaser or an affiliate of such Forward Purchaser), instruct such Agent, acting as forward seller on behalf of such Forward Purchaser, to offer and sell the Shares borrowed by such Forward Purchaser from third parties as contemplated by such Confirmation. Sales of the Shares, if any, through an Agent acting as sales agent of the Company, directly to an Agent acting as principal or as forward seller on behalf of any Forward Purchaser will be made in (1) negotiated transactions, which may include block trades, as the Company and such Agent may agree or (2) "at the market" offerings (as defined in Rule 415 under the 1933 Act Regulations) by means of ordinary brokers' transactions on the NYSE or otherwise at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices, by privately negotiated transactions (including block sales) or by any other methods permitted by applicable law; *provided, however*, that, except in the case of a Non-Market Hours Block Transaction (as defined below), such sales are only permitted to be executed between 9:30 a.m. New York City time and 4:00 p.m. New York City time ("<u>Market Hours</u>"), including sales made directly on the NYSE, sales made to or through market makers and sales made through other securities exchanges or electronic communications networks. Sales of Shares, if any, purchased by an Agent as principal will be made as provided in the applicable Terms Agreement and the applicable pricing supplement prepared in connection with the offering of those Shares.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Shares are to be sold to an Agent, as sales agent of the Company, or as forward seller, on any day (other than a day on which the NYSE is scheduled to close prior to its regular weekday closing time) (each, a "<u>Trading Day</u>") on which (i) the Company has instructed such Agent, as sales agent of the Company or forward seller, to make such sales, (ii) the Company has satisfied its covenants and conditions specified in Sections 4 and 5 hereof, (iii) the respective Agent has agreed to act as Agent with respect to such sales and (iv) if such Shares are to be sold by such Agent as forward seller, the Company shall have entered into a Confirmation with the applicable Forward Purchaser. During Market Hours on any Trading Day, the Company may instruct only one Agent, as sales agent of the Company or as forward seller, to offer and sell Shares, and, if it determines to do so, shall instruct the applicable Agent by telephone (confirmed promptly by facsimile transmission or email, which confirmation will be promptly acknowledged by such Agent and any applicable Forward Purchaser) as to the maximum number of Shares to be sold on such Trading Day and the minimum price per Share at which such Shares may be sold; *provided, however*, that such prohibition on the instruction of more than one Agent during Market Hours on any Trading Day shall not apply to or prohibit the appointment of (A) the same Agent that was previously instructed on such Trading Day or (B) a second Agent (in either case, a "<u>Second Agent / Forward Seller</u>"), so long as a Second Agent / Forward Seller is only executing a block sale transaction before or after Market Hours on such Trading Day (such block sale transaction, a "<u>Non-Market Hours Block Transaction</u>"). Such instruction shall also specify whether such Shares will be borrowed by a Forward Purchaser and sold through the applicable Agent, as forward seller, in connection with hedging a forward stock purchase transaction pursuant to a Confirmation in accordance with clause (ii) of the paragraph above. Subject to the terms and conditions specified herein (including, without limitation, the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Company, the performance by the Company of its covenants and other obligations, contained herein and the satisfaction of the additional conditions specified in Section 5 hereof), upon delivery of the Company's instruction, such Agent shall use its commercially reasonable efforts, consistent with its normal trading and sales practices and applicable law and regulations, to sell all of the Shares so designated by the Company as sales agent in accordance with such instruction. On any Trading Day, the Company shall give at least one business day's prior written notice by telecopy or email to the Agents and (if applicable) Forward Purchasers as to any change of the Agent or Forward Purchaser through whom sales of Shares will be made. For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing limitation shall not apply to sales solely to employees or security holders of the Company, the Operating Partnership or their respective subsidiaries or to a trustee or other person acquiring Shares for the accounts of such persons in which any Agent is acting for the Company in a capacity other than as Agent under this Agreement. The Company, the Agents and Forward Purchasers each acknowledge and agree that (A) there can be no assurance that any Agent will be successful in selling any Shares, (B) the Agents (whether acting on behalf of the Company or as forward seller on behalf of the related Forward Purchaser) will not incur any liability or obligation to the Company if they fail to sell

------

Shares for any reason other than a failure to use their respective commercially reasonable efforts, consistent with their normal trading and sales practices and applicable law and regulations, to sell such Shares as required by this Agreement and (C) no Agent or Forward Purchaser shall incur any liability for not borrowing, offering or selling any Shares as a result of the circumstances set forth in clause (i) or (ii) of Section 2(k). In addition to the foregoing, any sale instruction to Nomura Securities International, Inc., as forward seller, is also subject to acceptance by BTIG, LLC, and such sale instruction shall not be effective against Nomura Securities International, Inc. until accepted by both Nomura Securities International, Inc. and BTIG, LLC. Such sale instruction, for the avoidance of doubt, may be accepted or rejected by Nomura Securities International, Inc. or BTIG, LLC, in its sole discretion. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any Agent may decline, for any reason in its sole discretion, to act as sales agent for the Company hereunder with respect to one or more sets of Company instructions for the sale of the Shares.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The Company or the applicable Agent through whom the sale of Shares are to be made as sales agent or forward seller on any Trading Day may, upon notice to the other party by telephone (confirmed promptly by telecopy or email, which confirmation will be promptly acknowledged by the receiving party), suspend the offering of Shares with respect to which such Agent is acting as sales agent or forward seller for any reason and at any time; *provided, however*, that such suspension shall not affect or impair either parties' respective obligations with respect to the Shares sold, or with respect to Shares that the Company has agreed to sell, hereunder prior to the giving of such notice.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) The gross sales price of any Shares sold pursuant to this Agreement by the applicable Agent acting as sales agent of the Company shall be equal to, in the discretion of such Agent but subject to the specific instructions of the Company, the market price prevailing at the time of sale for the Shares sold by such Agent on the NYSE or otherwise, at prices related to prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices. The compensation payable to an Agent for sales of Shares with respect to which such Agent acts as sales agent shall be at a mutually agreed rate, up to 2.00% of the gross sales price for such Shares. For the avoidance of doubt, the compensation payable to such Agent acting as forward seller for sales of Shares shall be deemed paid through the agreed upon percentage under the "Initial Forward Price" under the applicable Confirmation. The remaining proceeds, after further deduction for any transaction fees, transfer taxes or similar taxes or fees imposed by any Governmental Entity or self-regulatory organization in respect of such sales, shall constitute the net proceeds for such sales (the "<u>Net Proceeds</u>"). The applicable Agent shall notify the Company as promptly as practicable if any deduction referenced in the preceding sentence will be made. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the Company engages an Agent as sales agent for the sale of Shares that would constitute a "distribution" within the meaning of Rule 100 of Regulation M under the 1934 Act, the Company and such Agent and, in the case of Shares being sold for a Forward Purchaser, such Forward Purchaser, will agree to compensation for such Agent that is customary for such sales.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) If acting as sales agent hereunder, the applicable Agent shall provide written confirmation to the Company following the close of trading on the NYSE on each Trading Day on which Shares are sold under this Agreement setting forth the number of Shares sold on such day, the aggregate gross sales proceeds of the Shares, the aggregate Net Proceeds to the Company or the applicable Forward Purchaser, as applicable, and the aggregate compensation payable by the Company to such Agent with respect to such sales.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) Under no circumstances shall the aggregate gross sales price or number, as the case may be, of Shares offered or sold pursuant to this Agreement, or which are the subject of instructions to an Agent as sales agent pursuant to Section 2(b) hereof, exceed the aggregate gross sales price or number, as the case may be, of Shares (i) referred to in the preamble paragraph of this Agreement, as reduced by prior sales of Shares under this Agreement, (ii) available for sale under the Registration Statement or (iii) duly authorized from time to time to be issued and sold under this Agreement by the Company or approved for listing on the NYSE. In addition, under no circumstances shall any Shares with respect to which the Agent acts as sales agent be offered or sold, or be the subject of instructions to an Agent as sales agent pursuant to Section 2(b) hereof, at a price lower than the minimum price therefor duly authorized from time to time by the Company and notified to the Agents in writing. The Agents shall have no responsibility for maintaining records with respect to Shares available for sale under the Registration Statement or for determining the aggregate gross sales price, number or minimum price of Shares duly authorized by the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) Settlement for sales of Shares will occur on the first business day that is also a Trading Day following the trade date on which such sales are made, unless another date shall be agreed to in writing by the Company and the applicable Agents (each such day, a "<u>Settlement Date</u>"). On each Settlement Date for the sale of Shares through an Agent as sales agent, such Shares shall be delivered by the Company or the Forward Purchaser, as applicable, to such

------

Agent in book-entry form to such Agent's account at The Depository Trust Company against payment by such Agent of the Net Proceeds from the sale of such Shares in same day funds delivered to an account designated by the Company, or such Forward Purchaser, as applicable. If the Company shall default on its obligation to deliver Shares through an Agent as sales agent of the Company on any Settlement Date, the Company shall (i) indemnify and hold such Agent harmless against any loss, claim or damage arising from or as a result of such default by the Company and (ii) pay such Agent any commission to which it would otherwise be entitled absent such default.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Company shall not offer or sell, or instruct an Agent to offer or sell, any Shares through an Agent as sales agent or forward seller (and, by notice to the applicable Agent(s) given by telephone (confirmed promptly by telecopy or email), shall cancel any instructions for any such offer or sale of any Shares prior to the commencement of the periods referenced below), and the applicable Agents shall not be obligated to make any such offer or sale of Shares, and the Company shall not enter into any Confirmation or any Terms Agreement (i) during any period in which the Company is, or could reasonably be deemed to be, in possession of material non-public information or (ii) except as provided in Section 2(i) hereof, at any time during the period commencing on the 10<sup>th</sup> business day prior to the time the Company issues a press release containing, or shall otherwise publicly announce, its earnings, revenues or other operating results for a fiscal period or periods (each, an "<u>Earnings Announcement</u>") through and including the time that is 24 hours after the time that the Company files a Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or an Annual Report on Form 10-K (a "<u>Filing Time</u>") that includes consolidated financial statements as of and for the same fiscal period or periods, as the case may be, covered by such Earnings Announcement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Notwithstanding clause (ii) of Section 2(h) hereof, if the Company wishes to offer or sell Shares to an Agent as sales agent or forward seller at any time during the period from and including an Earnings Announcement through and including the corresponding Filing Time, the Company shall first (i) prepare and deliver to such Agent and the applicable Forward Purchaser (with a copy to counsel for the Agents and the Forward Purchasers) a draft of a Current Report on Form 8-K that includes substantially the same financial and related information (together with management's discussion and analysis thereof) that was included in such Earnings Announcement (other than any earnings projections and similar forward-looking data and officers' quotations) (each, an "<u>Earnings 8-K</u>"), in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such Agent and Forward Purchaser, and, prior to its filing, obtain the written consent of such Agent and Forward Purchaser to such filing (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), (ii) provide such Agent and Forward Purchaser with the officers' certificate, opinions and letters of counsel and accountant's letter specified in Section 3(o), (p) and (q), respectively, hereof, (iii) afford such Agent and Forward Purchaser the opportunity to conduct a due diligence review in accordance with Section 3(t) hereof prior to filing such Earnings 8-K and (iv) file such Earnings 8-K with the Commission. For purposes of clarity, the parties hereto agree that (A) the delivery of any officers' certificate, opinion or letter of counsel or accountant's letter pursuant to this Section 2(i) shall not relieve the Company from any of its obligations under this Agreement with respect to any Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or Annual Report on Form 10-K, as the case may be, including, without limitation, the obligation to deliver officers' certificates, opinions and letters of counsel and accountant's letters as provided in Section 3(o), (p) and (q), respectively, hereof, and (B) this Section 2(i) shall in no way affect or limit the operation of clause (i) of Section 2(h) hereof, which shall have independent application.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(j) The Agents shall not have any obligation to purchase Shares as principal, whether from the Company or otherwise, unless the Company and the applicable Agents agree as set forth below. Shares purchased from the Company by the applicable Agents, individually or in a syndicate, as principal shall be made in accordance with terms agreed upon between such Agents and the Company as evidenced by a Terms Agreement. The applicable Agents' commitment to purchase Shares from the Company as principal shall be deemed to have been made on the basis of the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Company, and performance by the Company of its covenants and other obligations, herein contained and shall be subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth. At the time of each Terms Agreement, the applicable Agents shall specify the requirements, if any, for the officers' certificate, opinions and letters of counsel and accountant's letter pursuant to Section 3(o), (p) and (q), respectively, hereof. In the event of a conflict between the terms of this Agreement and a Terms Agreement, the terms of such Terms Agreement shall control.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(k) As set out in the Confirmations and notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event that either (i) a Forward Purchaser is unable to borrow and deliver any Shares for sale under this Agreement pursuant to the terms of such Confirmation, or (ii) in the commercially reasonable judgment of a Forward Purchaser, it is either impracticable to do so or the Forward Purchaser would incur a stock loan cost that is equal to or greater than the rate per annum set forth in of the applicable Supplemental Confirmation, then the applicable Agent, as forward seller, shall be obligated to use commercially reasonable efforts, consistent with its normal trading and sales practices and applicable law and regulations, to sell only the aggregate number of Shares that such Forward Purchaser is able to, and that in the commercially reasonable judgment of such Forward Purchaser it is practicable to, so borrow below such cost. For the avoidance of doubt, any obligation hereunder with respect to the borrowing of or offer or sale of any Shares in connection with a forward stock purchase transaction shall be subject to the related Confirmation being effective and not having been terminated.

Section 3. <u>Covenants. The Company agrees with the Agents and the Forward Purchasers as follows:</u>

In connection with a Terms Agreement, the Company will prepare and file with the Commission, subject to Section 3(c) hereof, a pricing supplement with respect to the offer and sale of Shares covered by such Terms Agreement. The Company will effect all filings required under Rule 424(b), in the manner and within the time period required by Rule 424(b) (without reliance on Rule 424(b)(8)), and will take such steps as it deems necessary to ascertain promptly whether the form of prospectus transmitted for filing under Rule 424(b) was received for filing by the Commission and, in the event that it was not, it will promptly file such prospectus.

As used in this Section 3(p), to the extent there shall be a sale of Shares on or following any Registration Statement Amendment Date, Company Earnings Report Date, Company Periodic Report Date or Request Date, "promptly" shall be deemed to be at or prior to the Applicable Time for such sale.

Section 6. <u>Indemnification.</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) *Indemnification of the Agents*. The Company and the Operating Partnership, jointly and severally, agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Agents and the Forward Purchasers, their respective affiliates (as such term is defined in Rule 501(b) and Rule 405 of the 1933 Act Regulations (each, an "<u>Affiliate</u>")), selling agents, officers, employees and directors and each person, if any, who controls an Agent or Forward Purchaser within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever, as incurred, arising out of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto), including any information deemed to be a part thereof pursuant to Rule 430B, or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or arising out of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact included (A) in any preliminary prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) or (B) in any materials or information provided to investors by, or with the approval of, the Company in connection with the marketing of any offering of Shares ("<u>Marketing Materials</u>"), including any roadshow or investor presentations made to investors by the Company (whether in person or electronically), or the omission or alleged omission in any preliminary prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) or in any Marketing Materials of a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever, as incurred, to the extent of the aggregate amount paid in settlement of any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any Governmental Entity, commenced or threatened, or of any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission; provided that (subject to Section 6(d) below) any such settlement is effected with the written consent of the Company;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) against any and all expense whatsoever, as incurred (including the fees and disbursements of counsel chosen by the Agents), reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any Governmental Entity, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission, to the extent that any such expense is not paid under (i) or (ii) above;

*provided, however*, that this indemnity agreement shall not apply to any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense to the extent arising out of any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto), including any information deemed to be a part thereof pursuant to Rule 430B, or in the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) in reliance upon and in conformity with Agent Information.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) *Indemnification of Company, Directors and Officers*. Each Agent and Forward Purchaser, severally and not jointly, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Operating Partnership, Company, its directors, each of its officers who signed the Registration Statement, and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity contained in Section 6(a) hereof, as incurred, but only with respect to untrue statements or omissions, or alleged untrue statements or omissions, made in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto), including any information deemed to be a part thereof pursuant to Rule 430B, or in the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) in reliance upon and in conformity with the Agent Information. As used in this Agreement with respect to an Agent and a Forward Purchaser and an applicable document, "<u>Agent Information</u>" shall mean the written information furnished to the Company by such Agent or Forward Purchaser expressly for use therein; it being understood and agreed upon that the only such information furnished by any Agent or Forward Purchaser consists of such Agent's or Forward Purchaser's name appearing in the Prospectus.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) *Actions against Parties; Notification*. Each indemnified party shall give notice as promptly as reasonably practicable to each indemnifying party of any action commenced against it in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder, but failure to so notify an indemnifying party shall not relieve such indemnifying party from any liability hereunder to the extent it is not materially prejudiced as a result thereof and in any event shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have otherwise than on account of this Section 6. In the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section 6(a) hereof, counsel to the indemnified parties shall be selected by the Agents, and, in the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section 6(b) hereof, counsel to the indemnified parties shall be selected by the Company. An indemnifying party may participate at its own expense in the defense of any such action; *provided, however*, that counsel to the indemnifying party shall not (except with the prior written consent of the indemnified party) also be counsel to the indemnified party. In no event shall the indemnifying parties be liable for fees and expenses of more than one counsel (in addition to any local counsel) separate from their own counsel for all indemnified parties in connection with any one action or separate but similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any Governmental Entity, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever in respect of which indemnification or contribution could be sought under this Section 6 or Section 7 hereof (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties thereto), unless such settlement, compromise or consent (i) includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such litigation, investigation, proceeding or claim and (ii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) *Settlement without Consent if Failure to Reimburse*. If at any time an indemnified party shall have requested an indemnifying party to reimburse the indemnified party for fees and expenses of counsel, such indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of the nature contemplated by Section 6(a)(ii) hereof effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 45 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the aforesaid request, (ii) such indemnifying party shall have received notice of the terms of such settlement at least 30 days prior to such settlement being entered into and (iii) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed such indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement.

------

Section 7. <u>Contribution</u>. If the indemnification provided for in Section 6 hereof is for any reason unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses (or actions in respect thereof) referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the aggregate amount of such losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses incurred by such indemnified party, as incurred, (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company and the Operating Partnership on the one hand, and of the applicable Agents and Forward Purchasers, on the other hand, from the applicable offering of the Shares or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Company and the Operating Partnership on the one hand, and the applicable Agents and Forward Purchasers on the other hand, in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.

The relative benefits received by the Company and the Operating Partnership, on the one hand, and the applicable Agents and Forward Purchasers, on the other hand, in connection with the applicable offering of the Shares shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from such offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Company, on the one hand, bear to the total commissions or underwriting discounts received by the applicable Agents, on the other hand (and, for purposes of the foregoing, the Company shall be deemed to have received net proceeds from the sale of Shares sold through any of the applicable Agents, acting as forward seller on behalf of a Forward Purchaser in connection with a Confirmation entered into by such Forward Purchaser, in an amount equal to the proceeds that would have been received by the Company upon full physical settlement of the Confirmation Shares under such Confirmation, assuming that the aggregate amount payable by such Forward Purchaser to the Company for such Confirmation Shares is equal to the aggregate amount of net proceeds received by such Forward Purchaser from the sale of such Shares through such Agent).

The relative fault of the Company and the Operating Partnership, on the one hand, and the applicable Agents and Forward Purchasers, on the other hand, shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any such untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by either of the Company and the Operating Partnership, on the one hand, or by the applicable Agents and Forward Purchasers on the other hand, and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

The Company and the Operating Partnership and the Agents and the Forward Purchasers agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 7 were determined by *pro rata* allocation (even if the applicable Agents and Forward Purchasers were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above in this Section 7. The aggregate amount of losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses incurred by an indemnified party and referred to above in this Section 7 shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any Governmental Entity, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission.

Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 7, no Agent shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the total commissions or underwriting discounts received by such Agent in connection with Shares placed or underwritten by it for sale to the public. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the 1933 Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

For purposes of this Section 7, each person, if any, who controls an Agent within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act and an Agent's Affiliates, selling agents, officers, employees and directors shall have the same rights to contribution as such Agent, and each director of the Company, each officer of the Company who signed the Registration Statement, and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company. The Agents' respective obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 7 are several in proportion to the number of Shares placed or underwritten by it in the applicable offering.

------

Section 8. <u>Representations, Warranties and Agreements to Survive</u>. All representations, warranties and agreements contained in this Agreement or in certificates of officers of the Company, the Operating Partnership or any of their respective subsidiaries submitted pursuant hereto, shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of (i) any investigation made by or on behalf of an Agent, a Forward Purchaser or its Affiliates, selling agents, officers or directors or any person controlling such Agent or Forward Purchaser, or the Company, the Operating Partnership or their respective officers or directors, or any person controlling the Company or the Operating Partnership and (ii) delivery of and payment for the Shares or any Confirmation Shares.

Section 9. <u>Termination.</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) This Agreement may be terminated for any reason, at any time, by either the Company or an Agent or Forward Purchaser, as to itself, upon the giving of three business days prior written notice to the other parties hereto. Any termination of this Agreement shall be effective on the date specified in such notice of termination; provided that such termination shall not be effective until the close of business on the third business day after the date of receipt of such notice by the applicable Agents, the applicable Forward Purchasers or the Company, as the case may be.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The applicable Agents may terminate a Terms Agreement to which they are a party, by notice to the Company, at any time at or prior to the Settlement Date, (i) if there has been, in such judgment of such Agents, since the time of execution of such Terms Agreement or since the respective dates as of which information is given in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus, any Material Adverse Change, or (ii) if there has occurred any material adverse change in the financial markets in the United States or the international financial markets, any outbreak of hostilities or escalation thereof or other calamity or crisis or any change or development involving a prospective change in national or international political, financial or economic conditions, in each case the effect of which is such as to make it, in the judgment of such Agents, impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the completion of the offering of Shares contemplated by such Terms Agreement or to enforce contracts for the sale of such Shares, or (iii) if trading in any securities of the Company has been suspended or materially limited by the Commission or the NYSE, or (iv) if trading generally on the NYSE, the NYSE Amex or Nasdaq has been suspended or materially limited, or minimum or maximum prices for trading have been fixed, or maximum ranges for prices have been required, by any of said exchanges or by order of the Commission, FINRA or any other Governmental Entity, or (v) if a material disruption has occurred in commercial banking or securities settlement or clearance services in the United States or with respect to the systems of Clearstream Banking S.A., or Euroclear Bank, SA/NV, in Europe, or (vi) if a banking moratorium has been declared by either Federal or New York State authorities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) If the Company, the Operating Partnership and two or more Agents enter into a Terms Agreement pursuant to which such Agents agree to purchase Shares from the Company as principal and one or more of such Agents shall fail at the Settlement Date to purchase the Shares which it or they are obligated to purchase (the "<u>Defaulted Shares</u>"), then the non-defaulting Agents shall have the right, within 24 hours thereafter, to make arrangements for one of them or one or more other Agents or underwriters to purchase all, but not less than all, of the Defaulted Shares in such amounts as may be agreed upon and upon the terms herein set forth; *provided, however*, that if such arrangements shall not have been completed within such 24-hour period, then:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) if the number of Defaulted Shares does not exceed 10% of the number of Shares to be so purchased by all of such Agents pursuant to such Terms Agreement on the Settlement Date, the non-defaulting Agents shall be obligated, severally and not jointly, to purchase the full amount thereof in the proportions that their respective initial purchase obligation bears to the purchase obligations of all non-defaulting Agents; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) if the number of Defaulted Shares exceeds 10% of the number of Shares to be so purchased by all of such Agents pursuant to such Terms Agreement on the Settlement Date, such Terms Agreement shall terminate without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Agent.

No action taken pursuant to this Section 9(c) shall relieve any defaulting Agent from liability in respect of its default. In the event of any such default which does not result in a termination of such Terms Agreement, either the non-defaulting Agents or the Company shall have the right to postpone the Settlement Date for a period not exceeding seven days in order to effect any required changes in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus or in any other documents or arrangements.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) In the event of any termination under this Section 9, neither party will have any liability to the other party hereto, except that (i) the Agents shall be entitled to any commissions earned in accordance with Section 2(b) hereof, (ii) if at the time of termination (a) an Agent shall own any Shares purchased by it as principal or (b) an offer to purchase any Shares has been accepted by the Company but the Settlement Date has not occurred, the covenants set forth in Section 3 hereof shall remain in effect until such Shares are resold or so delivered, as the case may be, and (iii) the covenant set forth in Section 3(h) hereof, the provisions of Section 4 hereof, the indemnity and contribution agreements set forth in Sections 6 and 7 hereof, and the provisions of Sections 8, 13, 14, 15 and 16 hereof shall remain in effect.

Section 11. <u>No Advisory or Fiduciary Relationship</u>. The Company and the Operating Partnership acknowledge and agree that (a) each purchase and sale of Shares pursuant to this Agreement and the issuance, sale and delivery of any Confirmation Shares pursuant to any Confirmation, including the determination of the respective initial public offering prices of Shares, if any, and any related discounts and commissions, and the price to be paid for any Confirmation Shares, is an arm's-length commercial transaction between the Company and the Operating Partnership, on the one hand, and the applicable Agents and Forward Purchasers, on the other hand, (b) the Agents and the Forward Purchasers have not assumed and will not assume any advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of the Company or the Operating Partnership or any of their respective subsidiaries or other affiliates with respect to any offering of Shares or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether the applicable Agents or Forward Purchasers have advised or are currently advising the Company or the Operating Partnership or any of their respective subsidiaries or other affiliates on other matters) or any other obligation to the Company or the Operating Partnership except the obligations expressly set forth in this Agreement, (c) the Agents, the Forward Purchasers and their respective affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Company or the Operating Partnership, and (d) the Agents and the Forward Purchasers have not provided any legal, accounting, financial, regulatory or tax advice to the Company or the Operating Partnership or any other person or entity with respect to any offering of Shares and the Company and the Operating Partnership have consulted their own respective legal, accounting, financial, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate.

Section 12. <u>Recognition of the U.S. Special Resolution Regimes.</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) In the event that any Agent or Forward Purchaser that is a Covered Entity becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer from such Agent or Forward Purchaser of this Agreement, and any interest and obligation in or under this Agreement, will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement, and any such interest and obligation, were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) In the event that any Agent or Forward Purchaser that is a Covered Entity or a BHC Act Affiliate of such Agent or Forward Purchaser becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under this Agreement that may be exercised against such Agent or Forward Purchaser are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.

For purposes of this Section 12, a "BHC Act Affiliate" has the meaning assigned to the term "affiliate" in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. § 1841(k). "Covered Entity" means any of the following: (i) a "covered entity" as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 252.82(b); (ii) a "covered bank" as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 47.3(b); or (iii) a "covered FSI" as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 382.2(b). "Default Right" has the meaning assigned to that term in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §§ 252.81, 47.2 or 382.1, as applicable.

(in any such capacity, each an "<u>Agent,</u>" and collectively, the "<u>Agents</u>") and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, The Bank of New York Mellon, Bank of America, N.A., Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, Jefferies LLC, KeyBanc Capital Markets Inc., Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, Nomura Global Financial Products, Inc. and StoneX Financial Inc., each as forward purchaser (in such capacity, each a "<u>Forward Purchaser</u>" and, collectively, the "<u>Forward Purchasers</u>") to issue and sell to [•] as principal for resale (the "<u>Underwriter</u>"), and the Underwriter agrees to purchase from the Company the shares of Common Stock specified in the Schedule A hereto (the "<u>[Initial] Securities</u>") [, and to grant to the Underwriter the option to purchase the additional shares of Common Stock specified in the Schedule A hereto (the "<u>Option Securities</u>", and together with the Initial Securities, the "<u>Securities</u>")]\*,[in each case] \* on the terms specified in Schedule A hereto. Capitalized terms used and not defined herein have the respective meanings ascribed thereto in the Sales Agreement.

[The Company grants an option to the Underwriter to purchase up to an additional [•] Option Securities at the price per share set forth in Schedule A hereto, less an amount per share equal to any dividends or distributions declared by the Company and payable on the Initial Securities but not payable on the Option Securities. The option hereby granted may be exercised for 30 days after the date hereof and may be exercised in whole or in part at any time from time to time upon notice by the Underwriter to the Company setting forth the number of Option Securities as to which the Underwriter is then exercising the option and the time and date of payment and delivery for such Option Securities. Any such time and date of delivery (a "<u>Date of Delivery</u>") shall be determined by the Underwriter, but shall not be later than seven full business days after the exercise of said option, nor in any event prior to the Settlement Date (as defined below). If the option is exercised as to all or any portion of the Option Securities, the Underwriter will purchase that proportion of the total number of Option Securities then being purchased which the number of Initial

------

Securities set forth in Schedule A hereto opposite the name of such Underwriter bears to the total number of Initial Securities, subject, in each case, to such adjustments as [•] in its sole discretion shall make to eliminate any sales or purchases of fractional shares. For purposes of clarity, the parties hereto agree that the officers' certificate, opinions and letter of counsel and accountant's letter referred to in Section 3(o), (p) and (q), respectively, of the Sales Agreement are required to be delivered by or on behalf of the Company on the Settlement Date.]\*

Payment of the purchase price for, and delivery of certificates, if any, for, the Initial Securities shall be made at the offices of [•], New York, New York, or at such other place as shall be agreed upon by the Underwriter and the Company, at 9:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the first (or second, if the pricing occurs after 4:30 P.M. (New York City time) on any given day) business day after the date hereof (unless postponed in accordance with the provisions of Section 9(c) of the Sales Agreement), or such other time not later than ten business days after such date as shall be agreed upon by the Underwriter and the Company (such time and date of payment and delivery being herein called "<u>Settlement Date</u>").

In addition, in the event that any or all of the Option Securities are purchased by the Underwriter, payment of the purchase price for, and delivery of certificates, if any, for, such Option Securities shall be made at the above-mentioned offices, or at such other place as shall be agreed upon by the Underwriter and the Company, on each Date of Delivery as specified in the notice from the Underwriter to the Company.

Payment shall be made to the Company by wire transfer of immediately available funds to a bank account designated by the Company against delivery to the Underwriter for their respective account for the Securities to be purchased by them. It is understood that the Underwriter has authorized [•] as representative of the Underwriter, for its account, to accept delivery of, receipt for, and make payment of the purchase price for, the Initial Securities [and the Option Securities, if any], which it has agreed to purchase. [•], individually and not as representative of the Underwriter, may (but shall not be obligated to) make payment of the purchase price for the Initial Securities [or the Option Securities], if any, to be purchased by any Underwriter whose funds have not been received by the Settlement Date or the relevant Date of Delivery, as the case may be, but such payment shall not relieve such Underwriter from its obligations hereunder.

Each of the provisions of the Sales Agreement not related solely to the Agent, as sales agent of the Company, the Forward Purchasers, any Confirmation or any Confirmation Shares, is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety, and shall be deemed to be part of this Terms Agreement to the same extent as if each such provision had been set forth in full herein. Each of the representations and warranties set forth in the Sales Agreement shall be deemed to have been made at and as of the date of this Terms Agreement, the Applicable Time and any Date of Delivery.

If the foregoing is in accordance with your understanding of our agreement, please sign and return to the Company a counterpart hereof, whereupon this instrument, along with all counterparts, will become a binding agreement among the Underwriter, the Company and the Operating Partnership in accordance with its terms.

THIS TERMS AGREEMENT AND ANY CLAIM, CONTROVERSY OR DISPUTE ARISING UNDER OR RELATED TO THIS TERMS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO ITS CHOICE OF LAW PROVISIONS.

**<u>Form of Master ATM Forward Confirmation</u>**

Date: [\*], 20[\*]

To: Curbline Properties Corp.

320 Park Avenue

New York, New York 10022

Attention: Conor M. Fennerty

From: [DEALER NAME AND NOTICE INFORMATION]

Ladies and Gentlemen:

The purpose of this letter agreement (this "***Master Confirmation***") is to confirm the terms and conditions of certain forward transactions to be entered into from time to time (each, a "***Transaction***" and, collectively, the "***Transactions***") between [DEALER NAME] ("***Dealer***") and Curbline Properties Corp. (the "***Counterparty***") as contemplated in the ATM Equity Offering Sales Agreement, dated as of [\*], 20[\*] (as may be amended from time to time, among the Dealer, the Counterparty and the other parties thereto, the "***Equity Sales Agreement***"). Each Transaction will be evidenced by a supplemental confirmation substantially in the form of Annex A hereto with a Trade Date specified therein (each, a "***Supplemental Confirmation***", and, together with its related Pricing Supplement (as defined herein) and this Master Confirmation, a "***Confirmation***" for purposes of the Agreement specified below).

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

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

1. Each Confirmation evidences a complete and binding agreement between Dealer and Counterparty as to the terms of
the Transaction to which such Confirmation relates, and shall supersede all prior or contemporaneous written or oral communications with respect thereto. Each Confirmation 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 an agreement in such form (without any Schedule but (i) with the elections set forth in such Confirmation and
(ii) with the election that the "Cross Default" provisions of Section 5(a)(vi) of the Agreement will apply to Dealer and Counterparty as if (a) the phrase ", or becoming capable at such time of being declared,"
were deleted from Section 5(a)(vi)(1) of the Agreement, (b)(i) the "Threshold Amount" with respect to Dealer were three percent of the [shareholders'] [members'] equity of [Dealer][[\*] ("  ***Dealer Parent*** ")] and (ii) the "Threshold Amount" with respect to Counterparty were USD 50 million, (c) the following language were added to the end of Section 5(a)(vi) of the Agreement: "Notwithstanding
the foregoing, a default under subsection (2) hereof shall not constitute an Event of Default if (x) the default was caused solely by error or omission of an administrative or operational nature; (y) funds were available to enable the
party to make the payment when due; and (z) the payment is made within two Local Business Days of such party's receipt of written notice of its failure to pay." and (d) the term "Specified Indebtedness" had 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 and obligations with respect to which recourse for
payment is limited to specific assets encumbered by a lien securing such obligations). In the event of any inconsistency between the Agreement, this Master Confirmation, any Supplemental Confirmation, the related Pricing Supplement (as defined
below) and the Equity Definitions, the following will prevail for purposes of the related Transaction in the order of precedence indicated: (i) such Pricing Supplement, (ii) such Supplemental Confirmation, (iii) this Master
Confirmation, (iv) the Equity Definitions and (v) the Agreement.

Annex II-1

------

The parties hereby agree that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any other agreement between Counterparty or its affiliates and Dealer or its affiliates, (x) the Agreement shall only govern the Transactions hereunder, and (y) the Transactions hereunder shall not be subject to any other master agreements or netting agreements, whether based on forms published by ISDA or otherwise. For purposes of the Equity Definitions, each Transaction to which this Master Confirmation relates is a Share Forward Transaction.

|  | (b) designated by Dealer as a Settlement Date for such Transaction pursuant to the "Termination Settlement" provisions of Paragraph 7(g) below; |
|  | *provided* that the Final Date will be a Settlement Date if on such date the Number of Shares for which a Settlement Date has not already been designated is greater than zero, and *provided, further,* that, following the occurrence of at least five consecutive Disrupted Days during an Unwind Period and while such Disrupted Days are continuing, Dealer may designate any subsequent Scheduled Trading Day as the Settlement Date with respect to the portion of the Settlement Shares, if any, for which Dealer has determined an Unwind Purchase Price during such Unwind Period, it being understood that the Unwind Period with respect to the remainder of such Settlement Shares shall, subject to clause (ii) in "Settlement Method Election" below, recommence on the next succeeding Exchange Business Day that is not a Disrupted Day in whole. |

|  | (b) with respect to the Settlement Date on the Final Date, a number of Shares equal to the Number of Shares at that time; |
|  | in each case with the Number of Shares determined taking into account pending Settlement Shares. |
| Settlement Method Election: | For each Transaction, Physical Settlement, Cash Settlement, or Net Share Settlement, at the election of Counterparty as set forth in a Settlement Notice that satisfies the Settlement Notice Requirements; *provided* that Physical Settlement shall apply (i) if no Settlement Method is validly selected, (ii) with respect to any Settlement Shares in respect of which Dealer is unable to unwind its commercially reasonable hedge by the end of the Unwind Period (taking into account any additional Transactions with overlapping "Unwind Periods" (as defined in the applicable Confirmations)) (A) in a manner that, in the commercially reasonable discretion of Dealer, based on advice of counsel, is consistent with the requirements for qualifying for the safe harbor provided by Rule 10b-18 under the Exchange Act ("***Rule 10b-18***") or (B) due to the occurrence of five or more consecutive Disrupted Days, (iii) to any Termination Settlement Date (as defined under "Termination Settlement" in Paragraph 7(g) below) and (iv) if the Final Date is a Settlement Date other than as the result of a valid Settlement Notice, in respect of such Settlement Date; *provided, further,* that, if Physical Settlement applies under clause (ii) immediately above, Dealer shall provide written notice to Counterparty at least one Scheduled Trading Day prior to the applicable Settlement Date. |
| Settlement Notice Requirements: | Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, a Settlement Notice delivered by Counterparty that specifies Cash Settlement or Net Share Settlement will not be effective to establish a Settlement Date or require Cash Settlement or Net Share Settlement unless Counterparty delivers to Dealer with such Settlement Notice a representation, dated as of the date of such Settlement Notice and signed by Counterparty, containing (x) the provisions set forth in clause (i) under the heading "Additional Representations and Agreements of Counterparty" in Paragraph 7(e) below and (y) a representation from Counterparty that neither Counterparty nor any of its subsidiaries has applied, and shall not until after the first date on which no portion of the applicable Transaction remains outstanding following any final exercise and settlement, cancellation or early termination of such Transaction, apply, for a loan, loan guarantee, direct loan, or other investment, or receive any financial assistance or relief under any program or facility (collectively "***Financial Assistance***") that (I) is established under applicable law (whether in existence as of the applicable Trade Date or subsequently enacted, adopted or amended), including without limitation the Federal Reserve Act, as amended, and (II) (X) requires under applicable law (or any regulation, guidance, |

|  | interpretation or other pronouncement of a governmental authority with jurisdiction for such program or facility) as a condition of such Financial Assistance, that Counterparty comply with any requirement not to, or otherwise agree, attest, certify or warrant that it has not, as of the date specified in such condition, repurchased, or will not repurchase, any equity security of the Issuer, and that it has not, as of the date specified in the condition, made a capital distribution or will not make a capital distribution, or (Y) where the terms of such Transaction would cause Counterparty under any circumstance to fail to satisfy any condition for application for or receipt or retention of the Financial Assistance (collectively "***Restricted Financial Assistance***"), other than any such applications for Restricted Financial Assistance with respect to which (x) Counterparty has determined based on the advice of outside counsel of national standing that the terms of such Transaction would not cause Counterparty or its subsidiary, as applicable, to fail to satisfy any condition for application for or receipt or retention of such Restricted Financial Assistance based on the terms of the program or facility as of the date of such advice or (y) Counterparty has delivered to Dealer evidence or other guidance from a governmental authority with jurisdiction for such program or facility that such Transaction is permitted under such program or facility (either by specific reference to such Transaction or by general reference to transactions with the attributes of such Transaction in all relevant respects). |
| Physical Settlement: | If Physical Settlement is applicable, then Counterparty shall deliver to Dealer through the Clearance System a number of Shares equal to the Settlement Shares for such Settlement Date, and Dealer shall pay to Counterparty, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by Counterparty, an amount equal to the Physical Settlement Amount for such Settlement Date, on a delivery versus payment basis. If, on any Settlement Date, the Shares to be delivered by Counterparty to Dealer hereunder are not so delivered (the "***Deferred Shares***"), and a Forward Price Reduction Date occurs during the period from, and including, such Settlement Date to, but excluding, the date such Shares are actually delivered to Dealer, then the portion of the Physical Settlement Amount payable by Dealer to Counterparty in respect of the Deferred Shares shall be reduced by an amount equal to the Forward Price Reduction Amount for such Forward Price Reduction Date, <u>multiplied by</u> the number of Deferred Shares. |
| Physical Settlement Amount: | For each Transaction, for any Settlement Date for which Physical Settlement is applicable, an amount in cash equal to the product of (a) the Forward Price in effect on the relevant Settlement Date <u>multiplied by</u> (b) the Settlement Shares for such Settlement Date. |

Annex II-7

| | |
|:---|:---|
| Cash Settlement: | On any Settlement Date in respect of which Cash Settlement applies, if the Cash Settlement Amount is a positive number, Dealer will pay the Cash Settlement Amount to Counterparty. If the Cash Settlement Amount is a negative number, Counterparty will pay the absolute value of the Cash Settlement Amount to Dealer. Such amounts shall be paid on such Settlement Date by wire transfer of immediately available funds. |
| Cash Settlement Amount: | For each Transaction, an amount determined by the Calculation Agent equal to: |
|  | (a) (i)(A) the weighted average (weighted on the same basis as clause (B)) of the Forward Prices on each day during period that begins one Settlement Cycle following the first day of the applicable Unwind Period and ends on the applicable Settlement Date (calculated assuming no reduction to the Forward Price for any Forward Price Reduction Date that occurs during such Unwind Period, which is accounted for in clause (b) below), <u>minus</u> a commercially reasonable commission (reasonable evidence of which shall be provided to Counterparty by Dealer), not to exceed USD 0.02, <u>minus</u> (B) the weighted average price (the "***Unwind Purchase Price***") at which Dealer purchases Shares during the Unwind Period to unwind its hedge with respect to the portion of the Number of Shares to be settled during the Unwind Period, assuming that Dealer has a commercially reasonable hedge position and unwinds its hedge position in a commercially reasonable manner, to be settled during such Unwind Period (including, for the avoidance of doubt, purchases on any Disrupted Day in part), taking into account Shares anticipated to be delivered or received if Net Share Settlement applies, and the restrictions of Rule 10b-18 agreed to hereunder, <u>multiplied by</u> (ii) the Settlement Shares for the relevant Settlement Date; <u>minus</u> |
|  | (b) the product of (i) the Forward Price Reduction Amount for any Forward Price Reduction Date that occurs during such Unwind Period and (ii) the number of Settlement Shares for such Settlement Date with respect to which Dealer has not unwound its hedge (assuming that Dealer has a commercially reasonable hedge position and unwinds its hedge position in a commercially reasonable manner), including the settlement of such unwinds, as of such Forward Price Reduction Date. |
| Net Share Settlement: | On any Settlement Date in respect of which Net Share Settlement applies, if the Cash Settlement Amount is a (i) positive number, Dealer shall deliver a number of Shares to Counterparty equal to the Net Share Settlement Shares, or (ii) negative number, Counterparty shall deliver a number of Shares to Dealer equal to the Net Share Settlement Shares; *provided* that, if Dealer determines in its commercially reasonable judgment that it would be required to deliver Net Share Settlement Shares to Counterparty, Dealer may elect to deliver a portion of such Net Share Settlement Shares on one or more dates prior to the applicable Settlement Date. |

| | |
|:---|:---|
| Net Share Settlement Shares: | With respect to a Settlement Date, the absolute value of the Cash Settlement Amount <u>divided by</u> the Unwind Purchase Price, with the number of Shares rounded up in the event such calculation results in a fractional number. |
| Unwind Period: | The period from and including the first Exchange Business Day following the date Counterparty validly elects Cash Settlement or Net Share Settlement in respect of a Settlement Date through the Scheduled Trading Day preceding such Settlement Date, subject to "Termination Settlement" as described in Paragraph 7(g) below. |
| Failure to Deliver: | Applicable if Dealer is required to deliver Shares hereunder; otherwise, Not Applicable. |
| Share Cap: | For each Transaction, notwithstanding any other provision of the applicable Confirmation, in no event will Counterparty be required to deliver to Dealer on any Settlement Date for such Transaction, whether pursuant to Physical Settlement, Net Share Settlement or any Private Placement Settlement, a number of Shares in excess of (i) 1.5 times the Initial Number of Shares, subject to adjustment from time to time in accordance with the provisions of such Confirmation or the Equity Definitions <u>minus</u> (ii) the aggregate number of Shares delivered by Counterparty to Dealer hereunder prior to such Settlement Date. |
| Adjustments: |  |
| Method of Adjustment: | Calculation Agent Adjustment. Section 11.2(e) of the Equity Definitions is hereby amended by deleting clauses (iii) and (v) thereof, and Section 11.2(e)(vii) of the Equity Definitions is hereby amended by adding the words "that is within the Issuer's control" immediately after the word "event".<br>For the avoidance of doubt, neither the issuance of stock options, restricted stock or restricted stock units in the ordinary course pursuant to Counterparty's employee incentive plans nor the declaration or payment of a cash dividend will constitute a Potential Adjustment Event. |
| Additional Adjustment: | For each Transaction, if Dealer (or an affiliate of Dealer) determines, in its commercially reasonable judgment, that its actual cost, excluding the federal funds or other interest rate component payable by the relevant stock lender to Dealer or such affiliate, over any 10 consecutive Scheduled Trading Day period of borrowing a number of Shares equal to the Number of Shares to hedge in a commercially reasonable manner its exposure to such Transaction exceeds a weighted average rate equal to the Initial Stock Loan Fee, then the Calculation Agent shall reduce the Forward Price to compensate Dealer for the amount by which such cost exceeded a weighted average rate equal to the Initial Stock Loan Fee during such period. The Calculation Agent shall notify Counterparty prior to making any such adjustment to the Forward Price. |

7. Other Provisions:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) <u>Conditions to Effectiveness</u>. A Transaction shall be effective if and only if Shares related to such Transaction are sold by the Agent during the Initial Hedge Period for such Transaction pursuant to the Equity Sales Agreement. If the Equity Sales Agreement is terminated prior to any such sale of Shares thereunder, the parties shall have no further obligations in connection with such Transaction, other than in respect of breaches of representations or covenants on or prior to such date. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Equity Sales Agreement is terminated prior to a Hedge Completion Date, the related Transaction shall remain effective with respect to any Shares that had been sold by the Agent on or after the Trade Date and prior to such termination.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Equity Sales Agreement Representations, Warranties and Covenants</u>. For each Transaction, on the date hereof, the Trade Date of such Transaction and, on each Settlement Date (as defined in the Equity Sales Agreement) for sales of the related Shares, Counterparty repeats and reaffirms as of such date all of the representations and warranties contained in the Equity Sales Agreement. Counterparty hereby agrees to comply with its covenants contained in the Equity Sales Agreement as if such covenants were made in favor of Dealer.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) <u>Interpretive Letter</u>. Each party agrees and acknowledges that each Transaction is being entered into in accordance with the October 9, 2003 interpretive letter from the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission to Goldman, Sachs & Co. (the "***Interpretive Letter***") and agrees to take all actions, and to omit to take any actions, reasonably requested by the other party, based on advice of counsel, for each Transaction to comply with the Interpretive Letter. Without limiting the foregoing, Counterparty agrees that neither it nor any "affiliated purchaser" (as defined in Regulation M ("***Regulation M***") promulgated under the Exchange Act) will, directly or indirectly, bid for, purchase or attempt to induce any person to bid for or purchase, the Shares or securities that are convertible into, or exchangeable or exercisable for, Shares during any "restricted period" as such term is defined in Regulation M. In addition, Counterparty represents that it is eligible to conduct a primary offering of Shares on Form S-3, the offering contemplated by the Equity Sales Agreement complies with Rule 415 under the Securities Act, and the Shares are "actively traded" as defined in Rule 101(c)(1) of Regulation M.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) <u>Agreements and Acknowledgments Regarding Shares</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Counterparty agrees and acknowledges that, in respect of any Shares delivered to Dealer hereunder, such Shares shall be newly issued (unless mutually agreed otherwise by the parties) and, upon such delivery, duly and validly authorized, issued and outstanding, fully paid and nonassessable, free of any lien, charge, claim or other encumbrance and not subject to any preemptive or similar rights and shall, upon such issuance, be accepted for listing or quotation on the Exchange.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Counterparty agrees and acknowledges that Dealer (or an affiliate of Dealer) will hedge its exposure to each Transaction by selling Shares borrowed from third party securities lenders or other Shares pursuant to a registration statement, and that, pursuant to the terms of the Interpretive Letter, the Shares (up to the Initial Number of Shares) delivered, pledged or loaned by Counterparty to Dealer (or an affiliate of Dealer) in connection with such Transaction may be used by Dealer (or an affiliate of Dealer) to return to securities lenders without further registration or other restrictions under the Securities Act, in the hands of those securities lenders, irrespective of whether such securities loan is effected by Dealer or an affiliate of Dealer. Accordingly, subject to Paragraph 7(h) below, Counterparty agrees that the Shares that it delivers, pledges or loans to Dealer (or an affiliate of Dealer) in connection with any Transaction will not bear a restrictive legend and that such Shares will be deposited in, and the delivery thereof shall be effected through the facilities of, the Clearance System.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) Counterparty agrees and acknowledges that it has reserved and will keep available at all times, free from preemptive or similar rights and free from any lien, charge, claim or other encumbrance, authorized but unissued Shares at least equal to the Share Cap, solely for the purpose of settlement under each Transaction.

Annex II-12

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) In connection with bids and purchases of Shares in connection with any Cash Settlement or Net Share Settlement of any Transaction, Dealer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to conduct its activities, or cause its affiliates to conduct their activities, in a manner consistent with the requirements of the safe harbor provided by Rule 10b-18 under the Exchange Act, as if such provisions were applicable to such purchases and any analogous purchases under any other Transactions, taking into account any applicable Securities and Exchange Commission no action letters, as appropriate.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi) Counterparty agrees with Dealer that ownership positions of Shares held by Dealer or any of its affiliates solely in its capacity as a nominee or fiduciary (where Dealer and such affiliates have no economic interest in such positions) do not constitute "ownership" by Dealer, and Dealer shall not be deemed or treated as the beneficial or constructive "owner" of such positions, in each case, for purposes of Article VII of the Articles of Amendment and Restatement of the Counterparty, as amended and supplemented (the "***Charter***").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(xvi) Counterparty acknowledges that Dealer, solely in its capacity as a Forward Purchaser (as defined in the Equity Sales Agreement), and the Agent, and solely with respect to entering into and consummating the transactions contemplated by this Master Confirmation, any Confirmation and the Equity Sales Agreement, as applicable, may, to the extent necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Master Confirmation, any Confirmation and the Equity Sales Agreement, "Beneficially Own" and "Constructively Own" Shares in excess of the "Aggregate Share Ownership Limit" and the "Common Share Ownership Limit" (each as defined in the Charter) by virtue of entering into transactions described in Section 6.1.7 of the Charter.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) <u>Additional Representations and Agreements of Counterparty</u>. Counterparty represents, warrants and agrees as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Counterparty represents to Dealer on each Trade Date and on any date that Counterparty notifies Dealer that Cash Settlement or Net Share Settlement applies to the applicable Transaction, that (A) Counterparty is not aware of any material nonpublic information regarding Counterparty or the Shares, (B) each of its filings under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other applicable securities laws that are required to be filed have been filed and that, as of the date of this representation, when considered as a whole (with the more recent such filings deemed to amend inconsistent statements contained in any earlier such filings), there is no misstatement of material fact contained therein or omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements made therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and (C) Counterparty is neither entering into the Confirmation for such Transaction (including the related Supplemental Confirmation) nor making any election hereunder to create actual or apparent trading activity in the Shares (or any security convertible into or exchangeable for Shares) or to raise or depress or otherwise manipulate the price of the Shares (or any security convertible into or exchangeable for Shares) or otherwise in violation of the Exchange Act. In addition to any other requirement set forth herein, Counterparty agrees not to designate, or to appropriately rescind or modify a prior designation of, any Settlement Date if it is notified by Dealer that, in the reasonable determination of Dealer, based on advice of counsel, such settlement or Dealer's related market activity in respect of such date would result in a violation of any applicable federal or state law or regulation, including the U.S. federal securities laws.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) It is the intent of Dealer and Counterparty that following any election of Cash Settlement or Net Share Settlement by Counterparty, the purchase of Shares by Dealer during any Unwind Period comply with the requirements of Rule 10b5-1(c)(1)(i)(B) under the Exchange Act, and that each Confirmation (including the related Supplemental Confirmation) shall be interpreted to comply with the requirements of Rule 10b5-1(c) under the Exchange Act. Counterparty acknowledges that (A) during any Unwind Period Counterparty shall not have, and shall not attempt to exercise, any influence over how, when or whether to effect purchases of Shares by Dealer (or its agent or affiliate) in connection with the applicable Confirmation and (B) Counterparty is entering into, and shall act with respect to, the Agreement and such Confirmation in good faith and not as part of a plan or scheme to evade compliance with federal securities laws including, without limitation, Rule 10b-5 under the Exchange Act.

Annex II-13

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) Counterparty shall, at least one day prior to the first day of any Unwind Period, notify Dealer of the total number of Shares purchased in Rule 10b-18 purchases of blocks pursuant to the once-a-week block exception contained in Rule 10b-18(b)(4) by or for Counterparty or any of its affiliated purchasers during each of the four calendar weeks preceding the first day of the Unwind Period and during the calendar week in which the first day of the Unwind Period occurs ("***Rule 10b-18 purchase***", "***blocks***" and "***affiliated purchaser***" each being used as defined in Rule 10b-18).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) During any Unwind Period, Counterparty shall (i) notify Dealer prior to the opening of trading in the Shares on any day on which Counterparty makes, or reasonably expects in advance of the opening to be made, any public announcement (as defined in Rule 165(f) under the Securities Act) of any merger, acquisition, or similar transaction involving a recapitalization relating to Counterparty (other than any such transaction in which the consideration consists solely of cash and there is no valuation period), (ii) promptly notify Dealer following any such announcement that such announcement has been made, and (iii) promptly deliver to Dealer following the making of any such announcement information indicating (A) Counterparty's average daily Rule 10b-18 purchases (as defined in Rule 10b-18) during the three full calendar months preceding the date of the announcement of such transaction and (B) Counterparty's block purchases (as defined in Rule 10b-18) effected pursuant to Rule 10b-18(b)(4) during the three full calendar months preceding the date of the announcement of such transaction. In addition, Counterparty shall promptly notify Dealer of the earlier to occur of the completion of such transaction and the completion of the vote by target shareholders.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) Neither Counterparty nor any of its affiliated purchasers (within the meaning of Rule 10b-18) shall take or refrain from taking any action (including, without limitation, any direct purchases by Counterparty or any of its affiliates, or any purchases by a party to a derivative transaction with Counterparty or any of its affiliates), either under a Confirmation, under an agreement with another party or otherwise, that Counterparty reasonably believes to cause any purchases of Shares by Dealer or any of its affiliates in connection with any Cash Settlement or Net Share Settlement of a Transaction not to meet the requirements of the safe harbor provided by Rule 10b-18 determined as if all such foregoing purchases were made by Counterparty.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi) Counterparty will not engage in any "distribution" (as defined in Regulation M), other than a distribution meeting, in each case, the requirements of an exception set forth in each of Rules 101(b) and 102(b) of Regulation M that would cause a "restricted period" (as defined in Regulation M) to occur during any Unwind Period.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vii) Counterparty is not, and after giving effect to the transactions contemplated hereby will not be, required to register as an "investment company" as such term is defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(viii) Counterparty is not insolvent, nor will Counterparty be rendered insolvent as a result of such Transaction or its performance of the terms hereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ix) Without limiting the generality of Section 13.1 of the Equity Definitions, Counterparty acknowledges that Dealer is not making any representations or warranties or taking any position or expressing any view with respect to the treatment of any Transaction under any accounting standards including ASC Topic 260, Earnings Per Share, ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, or ASC Topic 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity and ASC 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity's Own Equity (or any successor issue statements) or under FASB's Liabilities & Equity Project.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(xi) Counterparty represents as of the date hereof and as of the Trade Date of each Transaction, that to Counterparty's actual knowledge, no federal, state or local (including non-U.S. jurisdictions) law, rule, regulation or regulatory order applicable to the Shares would give rise to any reporting, consent, registration or other requirement (including without limitation a requirement to obtain prior approval from any person or entity) as a result of Dealer or its affiliates owning or holding (however defined) Shares, other than Sections 13 and 16 under the Exchange Act or Article VII of the Charter; *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 its affiliates solely as a result of their being a financial institution or broker-dealer.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(xii) Counterparty represents as of the date hereof and as of the Trade Date of each Transaction, that no filing with, or approval, authorization, consent, license, registration, qualification, order or decree of, any court or governmental authority or agency, domestic or foreign, is necessary or required for the execution, delivery and performance by Counterparty of the relevant Confirmation and the consummation of such Transaction (including, without limitation, the issuance and delivery of Shares on any Settlement Date) except (i) such as have been obtained under the Securities Act and (ii) as may be required to be obtained under state securities laws.

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(xiv) Counterparty will, by the next succeeding Scheduled Trading Day notify Dealer upon obtaining knowledge of the occurrence of any event that would constitute an Event of Default, a Potential Event of Default or a Potential Adjustment Event.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(xv) Counterparty (i) is capable of evaluating investment risks independently, both in general and with regard to each Transaction, (ii) will exercise independent judgment in evaluating the recommendations of any broker-dealer or its associated persons, unless it has otherwise notified the broker-dealer in writing; and (iii) has total assets of at least USD 50 million as of the date hereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) <u>Acceleration Events</u>. For each Transaction, each of the following events shall constitute an "***Acceleration Event***" for such Transaction:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) <u>Stock Borrow Event</u>. In the commercially reasonable judgment of Dealer, Dealer (or an affiliate of Dealer) (A) is not able to hedge in a commercially reasonable manner its exposure under such Transaction because insufficient Shares are made available for borrowing by securities lenders or (B) would incur a cost to borrow (or to maintain a borrow of) Shares to hedge in a commercially reasonable manner its exposure under such Transaction that is greater than a rate equal to the Maximum Stock Loan Fee, as specified in the related Supplemental Confirmation (each, a "***Stock Borrow Event***");

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) <u>Dividends and Other Distributions</u>. On any day occurring after the Trade Date for such Transaction, Counterparty declares a distribution, issue or dividend to existing holders of the Shares of (A) any cash dividend (other than an Extraordinary Dividend) to the extent all cash dividends having an ex-dividend date during the period from, and including, any Forward Price Reduction Date (with such Trade Date being a Forward Price Reduction Date for purposes of this paragraph (ii) only) to, but excluding, the next subsequent Forward Price Reduction Date exceeds, on a per Share basis, the Forward Price Reduction Amount set forth opposite the first date of any such period on Schedule I to the related Supplemental Confirmation, (B) any Extraordinary Dividend, (C) any share capital or other securities of another issuer acquired or owned (directly or indirectly) by Counterparty as a result of a spin-off or other similar transaction or (D) any other type of securities (other than Shares), rights or warrants or other assets, in any case for

Annex II-15

------

payment (cash or other consideration) at less than the prevailing market price, as determined in a commercially reasonable manner by Dealer; "***Extraordinary Dividend***" means any dividend or distribution (that is not an ordinary cash dividend) declared by the Issuer with respect to the Shares that, in the commercially reasonable determination of Dealer, is (1) a dividend or distribution declared on the Shares at a time at which the Issuer has not previously declared or paid dividends or distributions on such Shares for the prior four quarterly periods, (2) a payment or distribution by the Issuer to holders of Shares that the Issuer announces will be an "extraordinary" or "special" dividend or distribution, (3) a payment by the Issuer to holders of Shares out of the Issuer's capital and surplus or (4) any other "special" dividend or distribution on the Shares that is, by its terms or declared intent, outside the normal course of operations or normal dividend policies or practices of the Issuer;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) <u>ISDA Termination</u>. Either Dealer or Counterparty has the right to designate an Early Termination Date pursuant to Section 6 of the Agreement, in which case, except as otherwise specified herein and except as a result of an Event of Default under Section 5(a)(i) of the Agreement, the provisions of Paragraph 7(g) below shall apply in lieu of the consequences specified in Section 6 of the Agreement;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) <u>Other ISDA Events</u>. An Announcement Date occurs in respect of any Merger Event, Tender Offer, Nationalization, Insolvency, Delisting or the occurrence of any Hedging Disruption or Change in Law; *provided* that, in case of a Delisting, 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); *provided, further,* that (i) the definition of "Change in Law" provided in Section 12.9(a)(ii) of the Equity Definitions is hereby amended by (A) replacing the phrase "the interpretation" in the third line thereof with the phrase "or announcement or statement of the formal or informal interpretation" and (B) immediately following the word "Transaction" in clause (X) thereof, adding the phrase "in the manner contemplated by Dealer on the Trade Date" and (ii) any determination as to whether (A) the adoption of or any change in any applicable law or regulation (including, without limitation, any tax law) or (B) the promulgation of or any change in or announcement or statement of the formal or informal interpretation by any court, tribunal or regulatory authority with competent jurisdiction of any applicable law or regulation (including any action taken by a taxing authority), in each case, constitutes a "Change in Law" shall be made without regard to Section 739 of the Wall Street Transparency and Accountability Act of 2010 (the "***WSTAA***") or any similar provision in any legislation enacted on or after the date hereof; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) <u>Ownership Event</u>. In the good faith judgment of Dealer, on any day, the Share Amount for such day exceeds the Post-Effective Limit for such day (if any applies) (each, an "***Ownership Event***"). For purposes of this clause (v), 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 or regulatory order or Counterparty constituent document that for any reason is, or after the date hereof becomes, applicable to ownership of Shares ("***Applicable Provisions***"), owns, beneficially owns, constructively owns, controls, holds the power to vote or otherwise meets a relevant definition of ownership of under the Applicable Provisions, as determined by Dealer in its reasonable discretion. The "***Post-Effective Limit***" means (x) the minimum number of Shares that would 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 applicable Trade Date) 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, under the Applicable Provisions, as determined by Dealer in its reasonable discretion, <u>minus</u> (y) 1.0% of the number of Shares outstanding.

For the avoidance of doubt, Dealer shall, when making any such determination, act in good faith in a reasonable manner, and to the extent applicable, in a manner consistent with the requirements, policies or procedures of Dealer that are generally applicable in similar situations and applied to transactions that are similar to the Transaction in a non-discriminatory manner; and upon request from Counterparty, Dealer shall as promptly as commercially practicable provide Counterparty with a written explanation describing in reasonable detail any determination made by Dealer (but without disclosing Dealer's proprietary models or other information that may be proprietary or confidential or subject to a contractual, legal or regulatory obligations to not disclose such information).

Annex II-16

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) <u>Termination Settlement</u>. Upon the occurrence of any Acceleration Event, Dealer shall have the right to designate, upon at least one Scheduled Trading Day's prior notice, any Scheduled Trading Day following such occurrence to be a Settlement Date for such Transaction (a "***Termination Settlement Date***") to which Physical Settlement shall apply, and to select the number of Settlement Shares relating to such Termination Settlement Date; *provided* that (i) in the case of an Acceleration Event arising out of an Ownership Event, the number of Settlement Shares so designated by Dealer shall not exceed the number of Shares necessary to reduce the Share Amount to reasonably below the Post-Effective Limit and (ii) in the case of an Acceleration Event arising out of a Stock Borrow Event, the number of Settlement Shares so designated by Dealer shall not exceed the number of Shares as to which such Stock Borrow Event exists. If, upon designation of a Termination Settlement Date by Dealer pursuant to the preceding sentence, Counterparty fails to deliver the Settlement Shares relating to such Termination Settlement Date when due or otherwise fails to perform obligations within its control in respect of a Transaction, it shall be an Event of Default with respect to Counterparty and Section 6 of the Agreement shall apply. If an Acceleration Event occurs during an Unwind Period relating to a number of Settlement Shares to which Cash Settlement or Net Share Settlement applies, then on the Termination Settlement Date relating to such Acceleration Event, notwithstanding any election to the contrary by Counterparty, Cash Settlement or Net Share Settlement shall apply to the portion of the Settlement Shares relating to such Unwind Period as to which Dealer has unwound its hedge (assuming that Dealer has a commercially reasonable hedge and unwinds its hedge in a commercially reasonable manner) and Physical Settlement shall apply in respect of (x) the remainder (if any) of such Settlement Shares and (y) the Settlement Shares designated by Dealer in respect of such Termination Settlement Date. If an Acceleration Event occurs after Counterparty has designated a Settlement Date to which Physical Settlement applies but before the relevant Settlement Shares have been delivered to Dealer, then Dealer shall have the right to cancel such Settlement Date and designate a Termination Settlement Date in respect of such Shares pursuant to the first sentence hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of a Nationalization or Merger Event, if at the time of the related Relevant Settlement Date the Shares have changed into cash or any other property or the right to receive cash or any other property, the Calculation Agent shall adjust the nature of the Shares as it determines appropriate to account for such change such that the nature of the Shares is consistent with what shareholders receive in such event.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) <u>Private Placement Procedures</u>. If Counterparty is unable to comply with the provisions of sub-paragraph (ii) of "Agreements and Acknowledgments Regarding Shares" above because of a change in law or a change in the policy of the Securities and Exchange Commission or its staff, or Dealer otherwise determines, based on advice of counsel, that in its reasonable opinion any Shares to be delivered to Dealer by Counterparty may not be freely returned by Dealer or its affiliates to securities lenders as described under such sub-paragraph (ii) or otherwise constitute "restricted securities" as defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act, then delivery of any such Shares (the "***Restricted Shares***") shall be effected as provided below, unless waived by Dealer.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) If Counterparty delivers the Restricted Shares pursuant to this clause (i) (a "***Private Placement Settlement***"), then delivery of Restricted Shares by Counterparty shall be effected in accordance with private placement procedures customary for private placements of equity securities of substantially similar size with respect to such Restricted Shares reasonably acceptable to Dealer; *provided* that Counterparty may not elect a Private Placement Settlement if, on the date of its election, it has taken, or caused to be taken, any action that would make unavailable either the exemption pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act for the sale by Counterparty to Dealer (or any affiliate designated by Dealer) of the Restricted Shares or the exemption pursuant to Section 4(a)(1) or Section 4(a)(3) of the Securities Act for resales of the Restricted Shares by Dealer (or any such affiliate of Dealer), and if Counterparty fails to deliver the Restricted Shares when due or otherwise fails to perform obligations within its control in respect of a Private Placement Settlement, it shall be an Event of Default with respect to Counterparty and Section 6 of the Agreement shall apply. The Private Placement Settlement of such Restricted Shares shall include customary representations, covenants, blue sky and other governmental filings and/or registrations, indemnities to Dealer, due diligence rights (for Dealer or any designated buyer of the Restricted Shares by Dealer), opinions and certificates, and such other documentation as is customary for private placement agreements of equity securities of a substantially similar size, all reasonably acceptable to Dealer. In the case of a Private Placement Settlement, Dealer shall, in its good faith discretion, adjust the amount of Restricted Shares to be delivered to Dealer hereunder in a commercially reasonable manner to reflect the fact that such Restricted Shares may not be

Annex II-17

------

freely returned to securities lenders by Dealer and may only be saleable by Dealer at a discount to reflect the lack of liquidity in Restricted Shares. Notwithstanding the Agreement or the applicable Confirmation, the date of delivery of such Restricted Shares shall be the Clearance System Business Day following notice by Dealer to Counterparty of the number of Restricted Shares to be delivered pursuant to this clause (i). For the avoidance of doubt, delivery of Restricted Shares shall be due as set forth in the previous sentence and not be due on the date that would otherwise be applicable.

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) <u>Indemnity</u>. Counterparty agrees to indemnify Dealer and its affiliates and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents and controlling persons (Dealer and each such affiliate or person being an "***Indemnified Party***") from and against any and all losses (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, financial losses resulting from the economic terms of any Transaction), claims, damages and liabilities, joint and several, incurred by or asserted against such Indemnified Party arising out of any breach of any covenant or representation made by Counterparty in this Master Confirmation, any Confirmation or the Agreement and will reimburse any Indemnified Party for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable and documented legal fees and expenses) as they are incurred in connection with the investigation of, preparation for, or defense of any pending or threatened claim or any action or proceeding arising therefrom, whether or not such Indemnified Party is a party thereto, except to the extent determined in a final and non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from Dealer's negligence, fraud, bad faith and/or willful misconduct or from a breach of any representation or covenant of Dealer contained in this Master Confirmation, any Confirmation or the Agreement. The foregoing provisions shall survive any termination or completion of any Transaction.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(j) <u>Waiver of Trial by Jury</u>. COUNTERPARTY AND DEALER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVE (ON ITS OWN BEHALF AND, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ON BEHALF OF ITS STOCKHOLDERS) ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO ANY TRANSACTION OR THE ACTIONS OF DEALER OR ITS AFFILIATES IN THE NEGOTIATION, PERFORMANCE OR ENFORCEMENT OF THIS MASTER CONFIRMATION AND ANY CONFIRMATION.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(k) <u>Governing Law/Jurisdiction</u>. This Master Confirmation, each Confirmation and any claim, controversy or dispute arising under or related to hereto or thereto shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York without reference to the conflict of laws provisions thereof. The parties hereto irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York and the United States Court for the Southern District of New York in connection with all matters relating hereto and waive any objection to the laying of venue in, and any claim of inconvenient forum with respect to, these courts.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(l) <u>Designation by Dealer</u>. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Master Confirmation or any Confirmation to the contrary requiring or allowing Dealer to purchase, sell, receive or deliver any Shares or other securities to or from Counterparty, Dealer may designate any of its affiliates to purchase, sell, receive or deliver such Shares or other securities and otherwise to perform Dealer's obligations in respect of any Transaction and any such designee may assume such obligations. Dealer shall be discharged of its obligations to Counterparty only to the extent of any such performance.

Annex II-18

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(m) <u>Insolvency Filing</u>. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in any Confirmation, in the Agreement or in the Equity Definitions, upon any Insolvency Filing or other proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code in respect of the Issuer, each Transaction shall automatically terminate on the date thereof without further liability of either party to the applicable Confirmation to the other party (except for any liability in respect of any breach of representation or covenant by a party under such Confirmation prior to the date of such Insolvency Filing or other proceeding), it being understood that each Transaction is a contract for the issuance of Shares by the Issuer.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(n) <u>Disclosure</u>. Effective from the date of commencement of discussions concerning each Transaction, each of Dealer and Counterparty and each of their employees, representatives, or other agents may disclose to any and all persons, without limitation of any kind, the tax treatment and tax structure of each Transaction and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) relating to such tax treatment and tax structure.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(o) [Reserved].

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(p) <u>Counterparty Share Repurchases</u>. Counterparty agrees not to repurchase, directly or indirectly, any Shares if, immediately following such purchase, the Outstanding Share Percentage would be equal to or greater than 4.5%. The "***Outstanding Share Percentage***" as of any day is the fraction (1) the numerator of which is the aggregate of the Number of Shares for all outstanding Transactions and (2) the denominator of which is the number of Shares outstanding on such day.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(q) <u>Limit on Beneficial Ownership</u>. Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof or of any Confirmation, Dealer shall not have the right to acquire Shares hereunder and Dealer shall not be entitled to take delivery of any Shares hereunder (in each case, whether in connection with the purchase of Shares on any Settlement Date or any Termination Settlement Date, any Private Placement Settlement or otherwise) to the extent (but only to the extent) that, after such receipt of any Shares hereunder, (i) the Share Amount would exceed the Post-Effective Limit, (ii) Dealer and each person subject to aggregation of Shares with Dealer under Section 13 or Section 16 of the Exchange Act and the rules promulgated thereunder (including all persons who may form a "group" with Dealer within the meaning of Rule 13d-5(b)(1) under the Exchange Act) (collectively, the "***Dealer Group***") would directly or indirectly beneficially own (as such term is defined for purposes of Section 13 or Section 16 of the Exchange Act and the rules promulgated thereunder) in excess of 4.9% of the then outstanding Shares (the "***Threshold Number of Shares***"), (iii) Dealer would hold 5% or more of the number of Shares of Counterparty's outstanding common stock or 5% or more of Counterparty's outstanding voting power (the "***Exchange Limit***") or (iv) such acquisition would result in a violation of any restriction on ownership or transfer set forth in Article VII of the Charter (the "***Counterparty Stock Ownership Restrictions***"). Any purported delivery hereunder shall be void and have no effect to the extent (but only to the extent) that, after such delivery, (i) the Share Amount would exceed the Post-Effective Limit, (ii) the Dealer Group would directly or indirectly so beneficially own in excess of the Threshold Number of Shares, (iii) Dealer would directly or indirectly hold in excess of the Exchange Limit or (iv) such delivery would result in a violation of the Counterparty Stock Ownership Restrictions. If any delivery owed to Dealer hereunder is not made, in whole or in part, as a result of this provision, Counterparty's obligation to make such delivery shall not be extinguished and Counterparty shall make such delivery as promptly as practicable after, but in no event later than one Scheduled Trading Day after, Dealer gives notice to Counterparty that, after such delivery, (i) the Share Amount would not exceed the Post-Effective Limit, (ii) the Dealer Group would not directly or indirectly so beneficially own in excess of the Threshold Number of Shares, (iii) Dealer would not directly or indirectly hold in excess of the Exchange Limit and (iv) such delivery would not result in a violation of the Counterparty Stock Ownership Restrictions.

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

Dealer represents and warrants that, as of the Trade Date for each Transaction, if Dealer received the maximum number of Shares thereunder and under any Confirmation for any other Transaction assuming both (i) Physical Settlement applies and (ii) no restrictions on the delivery of Shares hereunder or thereunder were applicable, then the Counterparty Stock Ownership Restrictions would not apply so as to limit the number of Shares that Dealer could receive hereunder or thereunder. Dealer will not knowingly cause the occurrence of an Ownership Event on any day during the term of any Transaction for the purpose, in whole or in part, of causing the occurrence of a Termination Settlement Date.

Annex II-19

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(r) <u>Commodity Exchange Act</u>. Each of Dealer and Counterparty agrees and represents that it is an "eligible contract participant" as defined in Section 1a(18) of the U.S. Commodity Exchange Act, as amended (the "***CEA***"), the Agreement and each Transaction are subject to individual negotiation by the parties and have not been executed or traded on a "trading facility" as defined in Section 1a(51) of the CEA.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(s) <u>Bankruptcy Status</u>. Subject to Paragraph 7(m) above, Dealer acknowledges and agrees that no Confirmation is intended to convey to Dealer rights with respect to the transactions contemplated thereby that are senior to the claims of Counterparty's common stockholders in any U.S. bankruptcy proceedings of Counterparty; *provided*, *however*, that nothing therein shall be deemed to limit Dealer's right to pursue remedies in the event of a breach by Counterparty of its obligations and agreements with respect to such Confirmation and the Agreement; and *provided*, *further*, that nothing herein shall limit or shall be deemed to limit Dealer's rights in respect of any transaction other than the Transactions.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(t) <u>No Collateral or Setoff</u>. Notwithstanding Section 6(f) or any other provision of the Agreement or any other agreement between the parties to the contrary, the obligations of Counterparty hereunder are not secured by any collateral. Obligations in respect of any Transaction shall not be set off against any other obligations of the parties, whether arising under the Agreement, this Master Confirmation, any Confirmation, under any other agreement between the parties hereto, by operation of law or otherwise, and no other obligations of the parties shall be set off against obligations in respect of any Transaction, whether arising under the Agreement, this Master Confirmation, any Confirmation, under any other agreement between the parties hereto, by operation of law or otherwise, and each party hereby waives any such right of setoff, except that set-off solely with respect to amounts payable under any Transaction and any and all other Transactions governed by the Agreement shall be permissible.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(u) <u>Tax Matters</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) <u>Payer Tax Representations</u>. For the purpose of Section 3(e) of the Agreement, each of Dealer and Counterparty makes the following representation: It is not required by any applicable law, as modified by the practice of any relevant governmental revenue authority, of any Relevant Jurisdiction to make any deduction or withholding for or on account of any Tax from any payment (other than interest under Section 9(h) of the Agreement or amounts payable hereunder that may be considered to be interest for U.S. federal income tax purposes) to be made by it to the other party under the Agreement. In making this representation, it may rely on (A) the accuracy of any representations made by the other party pursuant to Section 3(f) of the Agreement, (B) the satisfaction of the agreement contained in Section 4(a)(i) or Section 4(a)(iii) of the Agreement and the accuracy and effectiveness of any document provided by the other party pursuant to Section 4(a)(i) or Section 4(a)(iii) of the Agreement and (C) the satisfaction of the agreement of the other party contained in Section 4(d) of the Agreement, except that it will not be a breach of this representation where reliance is placed on clause (B) above and the other party does not deliver a form or document under Section 4(a)(iii) of the Agreement by reason of material prejudice to its legal or commercial position.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) <u>Payee Tax Representations</u>. For the purpose of Section 3(f) of the Agreement:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) Dealer makes the following representation(s):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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. [Dealer is a national banking association organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America and is an exempt recipient under Section 1.6049-4(c)(1)(ii)(M) of the U.S. Treasury Regulations. Dealer is a "U.S. person" (as that term is used in Section 1.1441-4(a)(3)(ii) of the U.S. Treasury Regulations) for U.S. federal income tax purposes.] [It is an Ohio Corporation and a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes.] [It is a national banking association organized or formed under the laws of the United States and is a United States resident for U.S. federal income tax purposes.]

Annex II-20

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) Counterparty makes the following representations:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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 is a "U.S. person" (as that term is used in Section 1.1441-4(a)(3)(ii) of the U.S. Treasury Regulations) for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

It is a real estate investment trust for U.S. federal income tax purposes and is organized under the laws of the State of Maryland, and is an exempt recipient under Section 1.6049-4(c)(1)(ii)(J) of the U.S. Treasury Regulations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) <u>Withholding Tax imposed on payments to non-U.S. counterparties under the United States Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act</u>. "Tax" as used in Section 7(u)(i) and "Indemnifiable Tax", each as defined in Section 14 of the Agreement, shall not include any FATCA Withholding Tax. For the avoidance of doubt, a FATCA Withholding Tax is a Tax the deduction or withholding of which is required by applicable law for the purposes of Section 2(d) of the Agreement. "***Code***" means the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

"***FATCA Withholding Tax***" means any U.S. federal withholding tax imposed or collected pursuant to Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code, any current or future regulations or official interpretations thereof, any agreement entered into pursuant to Section 1471(b) of the Code, or any fiscal or regulatory legislation, rules or practices adopted pursuant to any intergovernmental agreement entered into in connection with the implementation of such Sections of the Code.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) <u>871(m) Protocol</u>. To the extent that either party to the Agreement is not an adhering party to the ISDA 2015 Section 871(m) Protocol published by ISDA on November 2, 2015 and available at <u>www.isda.org</u>, as may be amended, supplemented, replaced or superseded from time to time (the "***871(m) Protocol***"), the parties agree that the provisions and amendments contained in the Attachment to the 871(m) Protocol are incorporated into and apply to the Agreement with respect to each Transaction as if set forth in full herein. The parties further agree that, solely for purposes of applying such provisions and amendments to the Agreement with respect to each Transaction, references to "each Covered Master Agreement" in the 871(m) Protocol will be deemed to be references to the Agreement with respect to such Transaction, and references to the "Implementation Date" in the 871(m) Protocol will be deemed to be references to the Trade Date for each Transaction under the Agreement. For greater certainty, if there is any inconsistency between this provision and the provisions contained in any other agreement between the parties with respect to the Transactions, this provision shall prevail unless such other agreement expressly overrides the provisions of the Attachment to the 871(m) Protocol.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) <u>Tax Documentation</u>. For the purposes of Sections 4(a)(i) and 4(a)(ii) of the Agreement, Counterparty shall provide to Dealer a valid and duly executed U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-9, or any successor thereto, completed accurately and in a manner reasonably acceptable to Dealer and, in particular, with the "corporation" box checked on line 3 thereof (i) on or before the date of execution of each Confirmation; (ii) promptly upon reasonable demand by Dealer; and (iii) promptly upon learning that any such tax form previously provided by Counterparty has become inaccurate or incorrect. Additionally, Counterparty shall, promptly upon reasonable request by Dealer, provide, such other tax forms and documents, accurately completed and in a manner reasonably acceptable to Dealer, that may be required or reasonably requested to allow Dealer to make a payment under any Confirmation without any deduction or withholding for or on account of any Tax or with such deduction at a reduced rate.

Additionally, Dealer shall, promptly upon reasonable request by Counterparty, provide such other tax forms and documents, accurately completed and in a manner reasonably acceptable to Counterparty, that may be required or reasonably requested to allow Counterparty to make a payment under any Confirmation without any deduction or withholding for or on account of any Tax or with such deduction at a reduced rate.

Annex II-21

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(w) <u>Wall Street Transparency and Accountability Act of 2010</u>. The parties hereby agree that none of (i) Section 739 of the WSTAA, (ii) any similar legal certainty provision included in any legislation enacted, or rule or regulation promulgated, on or after the date hereof, (iii) the enactment of the WSTAA or any regulation under the WSTAA, (iv) any requirement under the WSTAA or (v) any amendment made by the WSTAA shall limit or otherwise impair either party's right to terminate, renegotiate, modify, amend or supplement any Confirmation or the Agreement, as applicable, arising from a termination event, force majeure, illegality, increased cost, regulatory change or similar event under any Confirmation, the Equity Definitions or the Agreement (including, but not limited to, any right arising from any Acceleration Event).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(x) <u>Other Forwards / Dealers</u>. Dealer acknowledges that Counterparty has entered or may enter in the future into one or more substantially similar forward transactions for the Shares (each, an "***Other Forward***" and collectively, the "***Other Forwards***") with one or more other dealers and/or affiliates thereof (each, an "***Other Dealer***" and collectively, the "***Other Dealers***"). Dealer and Counterparty agree that if Counterparty designates a "Settlement Date" with respect to one or more Other Forwards for which "Cash Settlement" or "Net Share Settlement" is applicable, and the resulting "Unwind Period" for such Other Forwards coincides for any period of time with an Unwind Period for any Transaction (the "***Overlap Unwind Period***"), Counterparty shall notify Dealer at least one Scheduled Trading Day prior to the commencement of such Overlap Unwind Period of the first Scheduled Trading Day and length of such Overlap Unwind Period, and Dealer shall be permitted to purchase Shares to unwind its commercially reasonable hedge in a commercially reasonable manner respect of such Transaction only on alternating Scheduled Trading Days during such Overlap Unwind Period, commencing on the first, second, third or later Scheduled Trading Day of such Overlap Unwind Period, as notified to Dealer by Counterparty at least one Scheduled Trading Day prior to such Overlap Unwind Period (which alternating Scheduled Trading Days, for the avoidance of doubt, may be every other Scheduled Trading Day if there is only one Other Dealer, every third Scheduled Trading Day if there are two Other Dealers, etc.).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(y) <u>Delivery of Cash</u>. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Master Confirmation or any Confirmation shall be interpreted as requiring Counterparty to deliver cash in respect of the settlement of any Transaction, except in circumstances where the required cash settlement thereof is permitted for classification of the contract as equity by ASC 815-40 (formerly EITF 00-19) as in effect on the applicable Trade Date (including, without limitation, where Counterparty so elects to deliver cash or fails timely to elect to deliver Shares in respect of such settlement). For the avoidance of doubt, the preceding sentence shall not be construed as limiting (i) Paragraph 7(i) hereunder or (ii) any damages that may be payable by Counterparty as a result of breach of any Confirmation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(z) Counterparts.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Counterparts may be delivered via facsimile, electronic mail (including any electronic signature covered by the U.S. federal ESIGN Act of 2000, Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, the Electronic Signatures and Records Act or other applicable law, e.g., DocuSign (any such signature, an "***Electronic Signature***")) or other transmission method and any counterpart so delivered shall be deemed to have been duly and validly delivered and be valid and effective for all purposes. The words "execution," "signed," "signature" and words of like import in this Master Confirmation, any Confirmation or in any other certificate, agreement or document related to hereto or thereto shall include any Electronic Signature, except to the extent electronic notices are expressly prohibited under this Master Confirmation, any Confirmation or the Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Agreement, either party may deliver to the other party a notice relating to any Event of Default or Termination Event under this Master Confirmation or any Confirmation by e-mail.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(aa) [US Resolution Stay Protocol.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) The parties agree that the terms of Section 1 and Section 2 and the related defined terms (together, the "***Bilateral Terms***") of the form of bilateral template entitled "Full-Length Omnibus (for use between U.S. G-SIBs and Corporate Groups)" published by ISDA on November 2, 2018 (currently available on the 2018 ISDA U.S. Resolution Stay Protocol (the "***Protocol***") page at www.isda.org and, a copy of which is available upon request), the effect of which is to amend the qualified financial contracts between the parties thereto to conform with the requirements of the QFC Stay Rules, are hereby incorporated into and form a part of this Master Confirmation, and for such purposes each Confirmation shall be deemed a "***Covered Agreement***," Dealer shall be deemed a "***Covered Entity***" and Counterparty shall be deemed a "***Counterparty Entity***." In the event that, after the date of this Master Confirmation, both parties hereto become adhering parties to the Protocol, the terms of the Protocol will replace the terms of this paragraph. In the event of any inconsistencies between this Master Confirmation and the terms of the Protocol, the Bilateral Agreement or the Bilateral Terms (each, the "***QFC Stay Terms***"), as applicable, the QFC Stay Terms will govern.

Re: <u>Registration Statement on Form S-3</u>

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have served as Maryland counsel to Curbline Properties Corp., a Maryland corporation (the "Company"), in connection with certain matters of Maryland law relating to the offering and sale from time to time of shares (the "Shares") of common stock, $0.01 par value per share (the "Common Stock"), of the Company having a maximum aggregate offering price of up to $250,000,000, in one or more at-the-market offerings, covered by the above-referenced Registration Statement, and all amendments thereto (the "Registration Statement"), filed by the Company with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act").

In connection with our representation of the Company, and as a basis for the opinion hereinafter set forth, we have examined originals, or copies certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of the following documents (hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Documents"):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. The Registration Statement and the related form of prospectus included therein in the form in which it was transmitted to the Commission under the 1933 Act;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. The Company's Prospectus, dated October 1, 2025 (the "Base Prospectus"), as supplemented by a Prospectus Supplement, dated October 1, 2025 (the "Prospectus Supplement" and, together with the Base Prospectus, the "Prospectus"), each in the form in which it was transmitted to the Commission for filing pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the 1933 Act;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. The charter of the Company (the "Charter"), certified by the State Department of Assessments and Taxation of Maryland (the "SDAT");

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4. The Bylaws of the Company, certified as of the date hereof by an officer of the Company;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5. A certificate of the SDAT as to the good standing of the Company, dated as of a recent date;

------

Curbline Properties Corp.

October 1, 2025

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6. Resolutions (the "Resolutions") adopted by the Board of Directors of the Company, and a duly authorized committee thereof, relating to, among other matters, the authorization of (a) the execution and delivery by the Company of the Sales Agreement, the Master Forward Confirmations and any Forward Confirmation (each as defined below) and (b) the sale and issuance of the Shares and Forward Shares, certified as of the date hereof by an officer of the Company;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7. The ATM Equity Offering Sales Agreement, dated as of October 1, 2025 (the "Sales Agreement"), by and among the Company, Curbline Properties LP, a Delaware limited partnership, and each of Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, BNY Mellon Capital Markets, LLC, BofA Securities, Inc., BTIG, LLC, Capital One Securities, Inc., Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, Jefferies LLC, KeyBanc Capital Markets Inc., Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, Nomura Securities International, Inc. and StoneX Financial Inc., as sales agents for the Company (except in the case of StoneX Financial Inc.), principals (except in the case of Nomura Securities International, Inc. and StoneX Financial Inc.) and/or forward sellers (except in the case of BTIG, LLC and Capital One Securities, Inc.) (in any such capacity, each an "Agent" and, collectively, the "Agents"), and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, The Bank of New York Mellon, Bank of America, N.A., Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, Jefferies LLC, KeyBanc Capital Markets Inc., Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, Nomura Global Financial Products, Inc. and StoneX Financial Inc., each as forward purchaser (in such capacity, each a "Forward Purchaser," and collectively, the "Forward Purchasers");

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8. The Master Forward Confirmations, each dated October 1, 2025, by and between the Company and one of the Forward Purchasers (a "Master Forward Confirmation") and the form of Supplemental Confirmation attached to the Master Forward Confirmations as Annex A (the "Form of Supplemental Confirmation" and, any executed and delivered Supplemental Confirmation in the form of the Form Supplemental Confirmation, collectively with the applicable Master Forward Confirmation, a "Forward Confirmation");

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9. A certificate executed by an officer of the Company, dated as of the date hereof; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10. Such other documents and matters as we have deemed necessary or appropriate to express the opinion set forth below, subject to the assumptions, limitations and qualifications stated herein.

In expressing the opinion set forth below, we have assumed the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. Each individual executing any of the Documents, whether on behalf of such individual or another person, is legally competent to do so.

------

Curbline Properties Corp.

October 1, 2025

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. Each individual executing any of the Documents on behalf of a party (other than the Company) is duly authorized to do so.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. Each of the parties (other than the Company) executing any of the Documents has duly and validly executed and delivered each of the Documents to which such party is a signatory, and such party's obligations set forth therein are legal, valid and binding and are enforceable in accordance with all stated terms.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4. All Documents submitted to us as originals are authentic. The form and content of all Documents submitted to us as unexecuted drafts do not differ in any respect relevant to this opinion from the form and content of such Documents as executed and delivered. All Documents submitted to us as certified or photostatic copies conform to the original documents. All signatures on all Documents are genuine. All public records reviewed or relied upon by us or on our behalf are true and complete. All representations, warranties, statements and information contained in the Documents are true and complete. There has been no oral or written modification of or amendment to any of the Documents, and there has been no waiver of any provision of any of the Documents, by action or omission of the parties or otherwise.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5. Upon the issuance of any Shares and any shares of Common Stock issuable by the Company to any Forward Purchaser pursuant to a Forward Confirmation (the "Forward Shares"), the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding will not exceed the total number of shares of Common Stock that the Company is then authorized to issue under the Charter.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6. None of the Shares or the Forward Shares will be issued, sold or transferred in violation of the restrictions on ownership and transfer contained in Article VII of the Charter.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7. Each Supplemental Confirmation entered into by and between the Company and any Forward Purchaser in relation to any Forward Shares will not differ in any manner material to this opinion from the Form of Supplemental Confirmation.

Based upon the foregoing, and subject to the assumptions, limitations and qualifications stated herein, it is our opinion that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. The Company is a corporation duly incorporated and existing under and by virtue of the laws of the State of Maryland and is in good standing with the SDAT.

------

Curbline Properties Corp.

October 1, 2025

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. The issuance and sale of any Shares by the Company to the Agents pursuant to the Sales Agreement and the issuance and delivery of any Forward Shares by the Company to the Forward Purchasers pursuant to the Sales Agreement and the applicable Forward Confirmations have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Company and, when issued and delivered by the Company in accordance with the Resolutions, the Registration Statement, the Sales Agreement and, if applicable, such Forward Confirmations against payment of the consideration set forth therein, the Shares and the Forward Shares will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

The foregoing opinion is limited to the laws of the State of Maryland, and we do not express any opinion herein concerning any federal or other state law or the laws of any other jurisdiction. We express no opinion as to the applicability or effect of federal or state securities laws, including the securities laws of the State of Maryland, or as to federal or state laws regarding fraudulent transfers or the laws, codes or regulations of any municipality or other local jurisdiction. To the extent that any matter as to which our opinion is expressed herein would be governed by the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Maryland, we do not express any opinion on such matter. The opinion expressed herein is subject to the effect of any judicial decision which may permit the introduction of parol evidence to modify the terms or the interpretation of agreements.

The opinion expressed herein is limited to the matters specifically set forth herein and no other opinion shall be inferred beyond the matters expressly stated. We assume no obligation to supplement this opinion if any applicable law changes after the date hereof or if we become aware of any fact that might change the opinion expressed herein after the date hereof.

This opinion is being furnished to you for submission to the Commission as an exhibit to the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K relating to the Shares (the "Current Report"), which is incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement. We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Current Report and to the use of the name of our firm therein. In giving this consent, we do not admit that we are within the category of persons whose consent is required by Section 7 of the 1933 Act.
