instruments (and the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the “Act” of the Holders signing such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing
appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Agreement and (subject to Section 7.01) conclusive in favor of the Purchase Contract Agent and the Company, if made in the manner provided in this Section. 

(b) The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or writing may be proved in any manner which the Purchase

the Holder of any Purchase Contract shall bind every future Holder of the same Purchase Contract and the Holder of such Purchase Contract issued upon the registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof in respect of
anything done, omitted or suffered to be done by the Purchase Contract Agent or the Company in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Purchase Contract. 

(e) The Company may set any date as a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders of Outstanding Purchase Contracts entitled
to give, make or take any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided or permitted by this Agreement to be given, made or taken by Holders of Purchase Contracts. If any record date is set pursuant to
this paragraph, the Holders of the Outstanding Purchase Contracts on such record date, and no other Holders, shall be entitled to take the relevant action with respect to the Purchase Contracts, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such
record date; provided that no such action shall be effective hereunder unless taken prior to or on the applicable expiration date by Holders of the requisite number of Outstanding Purchase Contracts on such record date. Nothing contained in
this paragraph shall be construed to prevent the Company from setting a new record date for any action for which a record date has previously been set pursuant to this paragraph (whereupon the record date previously set shall automatically and with
no action by any Person be cancelled and be of no effect), and nothing contained in this paragraph shall be construed to render ineffective any action taken by Holders of the requisite number of Outstanding Purchase Contracts on the date such action
is taken. Promptly after any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Company, at its own expense, shall cause notice of such record date, the proposed action by Holders and the applicable expiration date to be given to the Purchase
Contract Agent in writing and to each Holder of Purchase Contracts in the manner set forth in Section 1.06. 
 With respect to
any record date set pursuant to this Section, the Company may designate any date as the “expiration date” and from time to time may change the expiration date to any earlier or later day; provided that no such change shall be
effective unless notice of the proposed new expiration date is given to the Purchase Contract Agent in writing, and to each Holder of Purchase Contracts in the manner set forth in Section 1.06, prior to or on the existing expiration date. If an
expiration date is not designated with respect to any record date set pursuant to this Section, the Company shall be deemed to have initially designated the 180th day after such record date as the expiration date with respect thereto, subject to its
right to change the expiration date as provided in this paragraph. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no expiration date shall be later than the 180th day after the applicable record date. 

Section 1.05. Notices. Any notice or communication is duly given if in writing and delivered in Person or mailed by
first-class mail (registered or certified, return receipt requested), telecopier (with receipt confirmed) or overnight courier guaranteeing next day delivery, to the others’ address; provided that notice shall be deemed given to the Purchase
Contract Agent only upon receipt thereof:

 The Purchase Contract Agent shall have the right,
but shall not be required, to rely upon and comply with instructions and directions sent by e-mail, facsimile and other similar unsecured electronic methods by Persons believed by the Purchase Contract Agent to be authorized to give instructions and
directions on behalf of the Company. The Purchase Contract Agent shall have no duty or obligation to verify or confirm that the Person who sent such instructions or directions is, in fact, a Person authorized to give instructions or directions on
behalf of the Company; and the Purchase Contract Agent shall have no liability for any losses, liabilities, costs or expenses incurred or sustained by the Company as a result of such reliance upon or compliance with such instructions or directions.
The Company agrees to assume all risks arising out of the use of such electronic methods to submit instructions and directions to the Purchase Contract Agent, including without limitation the risk of the Purchase Contract Agent acting on
unauthorized instructions, and the risk of interception and misuse by third parties. 
 Section 1.06. Notice to Holders;
Waiver. Where this Agreement provides for notice to Holders of any event, such notice shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder affected by such
event, at its address as it appears in the Security Register, not later than the latest date, and not earlier than the earliest date, prescribed for the giving of such notice. In any case where notice to Holders is given by mail, neither the failure
to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed to any particular Holder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders. Where this Agreement provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in
writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such 

  
 14 

 
waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed with the Purchase Contract Agent, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of
any action taken in reliance upon such waiver. 
 In case by reason of the suspension of regular mail service or by reason of
any other cause it shall be impracticable to give such notice by mail, then such notification as shall be made with the written approval of the Purchase Contract Agent shall constitute a sufficient notification for every purpose hereunder.

 Section 1.07. Effect of Headings and Table of Contents. The Article and Section headings herein and in the Table
of Contents are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof. 
 Section 1.08. Successors and
Assigns. All covenants and agreements in this Agreement by the Company and the Purchase Contract Agent shall bind their respective successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not. 

Section 1.09. Separability Clause. In case any provision in this Agreement or in the Purchase Contracts shall be invalid,
illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof and thereof shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. 
 Section 1.10. Benefits of Agreement. Nothing contained in this Agreement or in the Purchase Contracts, express or implied, shall give to any Person, other than the parties hereto and their
successors hereunder and, to the extent provided hereby, the Holders, any benefits or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Agreement. The Holders from time to time shall be beneficiaries of this Agreement and shall be bound by
all of the terms and conditions hereof and of the Purchase Contracts by their acceptance of delivery of such Purchase Contracts. 
 Section 1.11. Governing Law. This Agreement, the Units and the Purchase Contracts, and any claim, controversy or dispute arising under or related to this Agreement, the Units or the
Purchase Contracts, shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York; provided that all rights and obligations of the United States Department of the Treasury under this Agreement shall
be governed by and constructed in accordance with the federal laws of the United States of America. 
 Section 1.12.
Judicial Proceedings. (a) Each of the Company and the Purchase Contract Agent expressly accepts and irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the United States Federal or New York State court sitting in the Borough of
Manhattan, The City of New York, New York, over any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Purchase Contracts. To the fullest extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, each of the Company and the
Purchase Contract Agent irrevocably waives and agrees not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense or otherwise, any claim that it is not subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying
of the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court and any claim that any 

  
 15 

 
such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. 
 (b) Each of the Company and the Purchase Contract Agent agrees, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so under applicable law, that a judgment in any suit, action or proceeding of the nature
referred to in Section 1.12(a) brought in any such court shall be conclusive and binding upon such party, subject to rights of appeal, and may be enforced in the courts of the United States of America or the State of New York (or any other
court the jurisdiction to which the Company is or may be subject) by a suit upon such judgment. 
 (c) Nothing in this Section
1.12 shall affect the right of any party hereto to serve process in any manner permitted by law, or limit any right to bring proceedings against any other party hereto in the courts of any jurisdiction or to enforce in any lawful manner a judgment
obtained in one jurisdiction in any other jurisdiction. 
 Section 1.13. Legal Holidays. In any case where any
Mandatory Settlement Date, Early Settlement Date, Early Mandatory Settlement Date or Fundamental Change Early Settlement Date shall not be a Business Day, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or the Purchase Contracts, settlement of
the Purchase Contracts shall not be effected on such date, but instead shall be effected on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on such Mandatory Settlement Date, Early Settlement Date, Early Mandatory
Settlement Date or Fundamental Change Early Settlement Date, as applicable, and no interest or other amounts shall accrue or be payable by the Company or to any Holder in respect of such delay, except that, if such next succeeding Business Day is in
the next succeeding calendar year, such settlement shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on such Mandatory Settlement Date, Early Settlement Date, Early Mandatory Settlement Date or
Fundamental Change Early Settlement Date, as applicable.

ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING

OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. 
 Section 1.17. Force Majeure. In no event shall either the Purchase Contract Agent or the Trustee be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations
hereunder arising out of or caused by, directly or indirectly, forces beyond its control, including, without limitation, strikes, work stoppages, accidents, acts of war or terrorism, civil or military disturbances, nuclear or natural catastrophes or
acts of God, and interruptions, loss or malfunctions of utilities, communications or computer (software and hardware) services; it being understood that each of the Purchase Contract Agent and the Trustee shall use reasonable efforts which are
consistent with accepted practices in the banking industry to resume performance as soon as practicable under the circumstances. 
 Section 1.18. Calculations. The solicitation of any necessary bids and calculations to be made hereunder shall be the obligation of the Company. The Purchase Contract Agent shall have no
obligation to make any such calculations. These calculations include, but are not limited to, determination of the applicable Settlement Rate, the Fixed Settlement Rates, the Early Settlement Rate, the Early Mandatory Settlement Rate, the
Fundamental Change Early Settlement Rate, the Applicable Market Value and the Daily VWAP, as the case may be. All calculations made by the Company or its agent as contemplated pursuant to the terms hereof shall be made in good faith and, absent

designation and such legends or endorsements printed, lithographed or engraved thereon as may be required by the rules of any securities exchange on which the Units or Purchase Contracts, as the case may be, are (or may in the future be) listed or
any depositary therefor, or as may, consistently 

  
 17 

 
herewith, be determined by the officers of the Company executing such Units and Purchase Contracts, as the case may be, as evidenced by their execution thereof. 

The Units and Purchase Contracts shall be issuable only in registered form and only in denominations of a single Unit or Purchase
Contract, as the case may be, and any integral multiple thereof. 
 Each Unit, upon authentication, execution and delivery
thereof hereunder, shall initially consist of (i) the number of Purchase Contracts as shall be indicated in the Purchase Contract attached thereto as Attachment 3 and (ii) the number of Notes as shall be indicated in the Note attached
thereto as Attachment 4, in each case as such numbers may from time to time be reduced or increased, as appropriate in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 
 Definitive Securities shall be printed, lithographed or engraved with steel engraved borders or may be produced in any other manner, all as determined by the officers of the Company executing the Units or
Purchase Contracts, as the case may be, evidenced by such Definitive Securities, consistent with the provisions of this Agreement, as evidenced by their execution thereof. 
 Every Global Unit and Global Purchase Contract authenticated, executed on behalf of the Holders and delivered hereunder shall bear a legend in substantially the following form: 

“THIS SECURITY IS A GLOBAL [UNIT/PURCHASE CONTRACT] WITHIN THE MEANING OF THE PURCHASE CONTRACT AGREEMENT HEREINAFTER REFERRED TO
AND IS REGISTERED IN THE NAME OF CEDE & CO., AS NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITORY TRUST COMPANY, A NEW YORK CORPORATION (THE “DEPOSITARY”), THE DEPOSITARY OR ANOTHER NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITARY. THIS GLOBAL [UNIT/PURCHASE CONTRACT]
IS EXCHANGEABLE FOR SECURITIES REGISTERED IN THE NAME OF A PERSON OTHER THAN THE DEPOSITARY OR ITS NOMINEE ONLY IN THE LIMITED CIRCUMSTANCES DESCRIBED IN THE PURCHASE CONTRACT AGREEMENT AND NO TRANSFER OF THIS SECURITY (OTHER THAN A TRANSFER OF THIS
SECURITY AS A WHOLE BY THE DEPOSITARY TO A NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITARY OR BY A NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITARY TO THE DEPOSITARY OR ANOTHER NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITARY) MAY BE REGISTERED EXCEPT IN LIMITED CIRCUMSTANCES. 

UNLESS THIS GLOBAL [UNIT/PURCHASE CONTRACT] IS PRESENTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF THE DEPOSITARY FOR REGISTRATION OF TRANSFER,
EXCHANGE OR PAYMENT, AND ANY SECURITY ISSUED IS REGISTERED IN THE NAME OF CEDE & CO. OR SUCH OTHER NAME AS REQUESTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF THE DEPOSITARY (AND ANY PAYMENT HEREON IS MADE TO CEDE & CO. OR TO SUCH OTHER
ENTITY AS IS REQUESTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF THE DEPOSITARY), ANY TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR OTHER USE HEREOF FOR VALUE OR OTHERWISE BY 

  
 18

Agreement to, but excluding, the third Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding [            ], 2014 or any Early Mandatory Settlement Date, a Holder or Beneficial Owner of a Unit
may separate such Unit into its constituent Purchase Contract and Note (each such separated Purchase Contract and separated Note, a “Separate Purchase Contract” and “Separate Note,” respectively), which will
thereafter trade under their respective CUSIP numbers ([            ] and [            ]), in which case that Unit
will cease to exist. Beneficial interests in a Unit, and after separation, the Separate Purchase Contract and Separate Note, will be shown on and transfers will be effected through direct or indirect participants in DTC. Beneficial interests in
Units, Separate Purchase Contracts and Separate Notes will be evidenced by Global Units, Global Purchase Contracts and Global Notes, respectively. In order to separate a Unit into its component parts, a Beneficial Owner must deliver written
instructions to the broker or other direct or indirect participant (the “Participant”) through which such Beneficial Owner holds an interest in such Unit to notify DTC through DTC’s Deposit/Withdrawal at Custodian System (the
“DWAC System”) of such Beneficial Owner’s election to separate such Unit, unless such Unit is in the form of a Definitive Security, in which case the Holder thereof must deliver to the Purchase Contract Agent such Unit,
together with a separation notice, in the form set forth in Attachment 1 to the form of Unit attached hereto as Exhibit A. Upon the receipt of such separation notice, the Company shall promptly cause delivery, in accordance with the delivery
instructions set forth in such separation notice, of one Separate Purchase Contract and one Note for each such Unit. Separate Purchase Contracts and Separate Notes will be transferable independently from each other. 

(b) Holders that separate Units in accordance with this Section 2.03 shall be responsible for any fees or expenses payable in connection
with such separation, and the Company shall not be responsible for any such fees or expenses.

[            ], 2014 or any Early Mandatory Settlement Date, a Holder or Beneficial Owner of a Separate Purchase Contract and a Separate Note may recreate a Unit (which will
thereafter trade under the CUSIP number for the Units ([            ])), in which case each such Separate Purchase Contract and Separate Note will cease to exist. In order to
recreate a Separate Purchase Contract and Separate Note into a Unit, a Beneficial Owner must deliver written instructions to the Participant through which it holds an interest in such Separate Purchase Contract and Separate Note and to notify DTC
through DTC’s 

  
 19 

 
DWAC System of such Beneficial Owner’s election to recreate a Unit, unless such Separate Purchase Contract and Separate Note are in the form of Definitive Securities, in which case the
Holder thereof must deliver to the Purchase Contract Agent such Definitive Securities, together with a recreation notice, in the form set forth in Attachment 2 to the form of Unit attached hereto as Exhibit A. Upon the receipt of such
recreation notice, the Company shall promptly cause delivery, in accordance with the delivery instructions set forth in such recreation notice, of one Unit in definitive form for such Definitive Securities.

of, in exchange for, or in lieu of, other Units and Separate Purchase Contracts pursuant to Section 3.04, 3.05, 3.10 or 8.05. 

Equity-Linked Securities that are not in the form of Global Securities shall be issuable in denominations of one Equity-Linked Security
and integral multiples in excess thereof 
 Section 3.02. Rights and Obligations Evidenced by the Equity-Linked
Securities. Each Equity-Linked Security shall evidence the number of Units or Separate Purchase Contracts, as the case may be, specified therein, with each such Unit and each such Separate Purchase Contract representing the rights and
obligations of the Holder thereof and the Company under one Unit or one Separate Purchase Contract, respectively. 

Section 3.03. Execution, Authentication, Delivery and Dating. Upon the execution and delivery of this Agreement, and at any
time and from time to time thereafter, the Company may deliver Equity-Linked Securities executed by the Company to the Purchase Contract Agent and the Trustee for authentication by the Purchase Contract Agent and the Trustee, execution on behalf of
the Holders by the Purchase Contract Agent and delivery by the Purchase Contract Agent and the Trustee, together with the Issuer Order for authentication of such Equity-Linked Securities, and the Purchase Contract Agent and the Trustee in accordance

 The Equity-Linked Securities shall be executed on behalf of the Company by any authorized
officer of the Company. The signature of any such officer on the Equity-Linked Securities may be manual or facsimile. 

Equity-Linked Securities bearing the manual or facsimile signature of an individual who was at any time the proper officer of the Company
shall bind the Company, notwithstanding that such individual has ceased to hold such offices prior to the authentication and delivery of such Equity-Linked Securities or did not hold such offices at the date of such Equity-Linked Securities.

 Each Equity-Linked Security shall be dated the date of its authentication. 

No Equity-Linked Security shall be entitled to any benefit under this Agreement or be valid or obligatory for any purpose unless there
appears on such Equity-Linked Security a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for herein executed by an authorized officer of the Purchase Contract Agent and the Trustee by manual signature, and such certificate upon any
Equity-Linked Security shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Equity-Linked Security has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder. 
 Section 3.04. Temporary Equity-Linked Securities. Pending the preparation of Definitive Equity-Linked Securities, the Company shall execute and deliver to the Purchase Contract Agent and the
Trustee, and the Purchase Contract Agent and the Trustee shall authenticate, the Purchase Contract Agent shall execute on behalf of the Holders, and the Purchase Contract Agent and the Trustee shall deliver, in lieu of such Definitive Equity-Linked
Securities, temporary Equity-Linked Securities that are in substantially the form set forth in Exhibit A or Exhibit B hereto, as the case may be, with such letters, numbers or other marks of identification or designation and such
legends or endorsements printed, lithographed or engraved thereon as may be required by the rules of any securities exchange on which the Units or Separate Purchase Contracts, as the case may be, are listed, or as may, consistently herewith, be
determined by the officers of the Company executing such Equity-Linked Securities, as evidenced by their execution of the Equity-Linked Securities. 
 If temporary Equity-Linked Securities are issued, the Company will cause Definitive Equity-Linked Securities to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation of Definitive Equity-Linked
Securities, the temporary Equity-Linked Securities shall be exchangeable for Definitive Equity-Linked Securities upon surrender of the temporary Equity-Linked Securities at the Corporate Trust Office, at the expense of the Company and without charge
to the Holder or the Purchase Contract Agent. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Securities, the Company shall execute and deliver to the Purchase Contract Agent, and the Purchase Contract Agent shall authenticate, execute
on behalf of the Holder, and deliver in exchange therefor, one or more Definitive Equity-Linked Securities of like tenor and denominations and evidencing a like number of Units or Separate Purchase Contracts, as the case may be, as the temporary
Equity-Linked Security or Equity-Linked Securities so surrendered. Until so exchanged, the temporary Equity-Linked Securities shall in all respects evidence the 

  
 21 

 
same benefits and the same obligations with respect to the Units or Separate Purchase Contracts, as the case may be, evidenced thereby as Definitive Equity-Linked Securities. 

Section 3.05. Registration; Registration of Transfer and Exchange. The Company shall cause to be kept at the Corporate Trust
Office a register (the “Security Register”) in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Company shall provide for the registration of Equity-Linked Securities and of transfers of Equity-Linked
Securities. The Purchase Contract Agent is hereby initially appointed Security Registrar (the “Security Registrar”) for the purpose of registration of Equity-Linked Securities and transfers of Equity-Linked Securities as provided
herein. The Security Registrar shall record separately the registration and transfer of the Equity-Linked Securities evidencing Units and Separate Purchase Contracts. 
 Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Equity-Linked Security at the Corporate Trust Office, the Company shall execute and deliver to the Purchase Contract Agent and the Trustee, and the
Purchase Contract Agent and the Trustee shall authenticate, the Purchase Contract Agent shall execute on behalf of the designated transferee or transferees, and the Purchase Contract Agent and the Trustee shall deliver, in the name of the designated
transferee or transferees, one or more new Equity-Linked Securities of any authorized denominations, of like tenor, and evidencing a like number of Units or Separate Purchase Contracts, as the case may be. 

At the option of the Holder, Equity-Linked Securities may be exchanged for other Equity-Linked Securities, of any authorized
denominations and evidencing a like number of Units or Separate Purchase Contracts, as the case may be, upon surrender of the Equity-Linked Securities to be exchanged at the Corporate Trust Office. Whenever any Equity-Linked Securities are so
surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute and deliver to the Purchase Contract Agent and the Trustee, and the Purchase Contract Agent and the Trustee shall authenticate, the Purchase Contract Agent shall execute on behalf of the Holder,
and the Purchase Contract Agent and the Trustee shall deliver the Equity-Linked Securities that the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive. 
 All Equity-Linked Securities issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of an Equity-Linked Security shall evidence the ownership of the same number of Units or Separate Purchase Contracts, as
the case may be, and be entitled to the same benefits and subject to the same obligations, under this Agreement as the Units or Separate Purchase Contracts, as the case may be, evidenced by the Equity-Linked Security surrendered upon such
registration of transfer or exchange. 
 Every Equity-Linked Security presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or
exchange shall (if so required by the Purchase Contract Agent) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company, the Purchase Contract Agent and the Trustee duly executed by the Holder
thereof, or its attorney duly authorized in writing. 

  
 22 

 No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of an
Equity-Linked Security, but the Company may require payment from the Holder of a sum sufficient to cover any applicable tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration of transfer or exchange of Equity-Linked
Securities, other than any exchanges pursuant to Section 3.06 and Section 8.05 not involving any transfer. 
 Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the Company shall not be obligated to execute and deliver to the Purchase Contract Agent and the Trustee, and the Purchase Contract Agent and the Trustee shall not be obligated to authenticate, the Purchase Contract Agent shall not be
obligated to execute on behalf of the Holder and the Purchase Contract Agent and the Trustee shall not be obligated to deliver any Equity-Linked Security in exchange for any other Equity-Linked Security presented or surrendered for registration of
transfer or for exchange on or after the Business Day immediately preceding the earliest of [            ], 2014, any Early Settlement Date, any Early Mandatory Settlement Date and
any Fundamental Change Early Settlement Date with respect to such Equity-Linked Security. In lieu of delivery of a new Equity-Linked Security, upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions specified above in this Section and receipt of appropriate
registration of transfer instructions from such Holder, the Purchase Contract Agent shall, if the Mandatory Settlement Date, any Early Settlement Date, any Early Mandatory Settlement Date or any Fundamental Change Early Settlement Date shall have
occurred with respect to such Equity-Linked Security, deliver or arrange for delivery of the shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to the Purchase Contracts evidenced by such Equity-Linked Security (together with the Separate Note, if such
Equity-Linked Security is a Unit). 
 Section 3.06. Book-Entry Interests. The Units, on original issuance, will be
issued in the form of one or more fully registered Global Units, to be delivered to the Depositary or its custodian by, or on behalf of, the Company. The Company hereby designates DTC as the initial Depositary. Such Global Units shall initially be
registered on the books and records of the Company in the name of Cede & Co., the nominee of DTC, and no Beneficial Owner will receive a Definitive Unit representing such Beneficial Owner’s interest in such Global Unit, except as
provided in Section 3.09. The Purchase Contract Agent shall enter into an agreement with the Depositary if so requested by the Company in writing. Unless and until definitive, fully registered Securities have been issued to Beneficial Owners
pursuant to Section 3.09: 
 (i) the provisions of this Section 3.06 shall be in full force and effect;

 (ii) except as contemplated in the definition of “Holders” in Section 1.01, the Company shall be
entitled to deal with the Depositary for all purposes of this Agreement (including receiving approvals, votes or consents hereunder) as the Holder of the Global Units and Global Purchase Contracts and shall have no obligation to the Beneficial
Owners; 
 (iii) to the extent that the provisions of this Section 3.06 conflict with any other provisions of
this Agreement, the provisions of this Section 3.06 shall control; and 

  
 23 

 (iv) the rights of the Beneficial Owners shall be exercised only through the
Depositary and shall be limited to those established by law and agreements between such Beneficial Owners and the Depositary or the Depositary Participants. 
 Section 3.07. Notices to Holders. Whenever a notice or other communication to the Holders is required to be given under this Agreement, the Company or the Company’s agent shall give such
notices and communications to the Holders and, with respect to any Units or Purchase Contracts registered in the name of the Depositary or the nominee of the Depositary, the Company or the Company’s agent shall, except as set forth herein, have
no obligations to the Beneficial Owners. Any published notice shall be deemed to have been given on the date of publication or, if published more than once, on the date of the first publication. 

Section 3.08. Appointment of Successor Depositary. If the Depositary elects to discontinue its services as securities
depositary with respect to the Units or Purchase Contracts, the Company may, in its sole discretion, appoint a successor Depositary with respect to such Units or such Purchase Contracts, as the case may be. 

Section 3.09. Definitive Securities. If at any time (i) the Depositary for a Global Security (x) notifies the
Company that the Depositary is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for the Global Securities or (y) ceases to be a Clearing Agency and, in either case, a successor Depositary is not appointed within 90 days after such notification or
such ceasing to be a Clearing Agency, as the case may be, or (ii) an Event of Default with respect to the Notes, or any failure on the part of the Company to observe or perform any covenant or agreement in the Purchase Contracts, has occurred
and is continuing and the Beneficial Owner requests that its Notes and/or Purchase Contracts, as the case may be, be issued as Definitive Securities, the Company shall execute, and the Purchase Contract Agent or the Trustee, as applicable, upon
receipt of an Officers’ Certificate and an Issuer Order for the authentication and delivery of Notes and/or Purchase Contracts, shall authenticate and deliver, in the case of clause (i), Definitive Securities to each Beneficial Owner of the
related Global Securities (or a portion thereof) in an amount equal to the amount of such Global Securities in exchange for such Definitive Securities, and upon delivery of the Global Securities to the Purchase Contract Agent or the Trustee, as
applicable, such Global Securities shall be cancelled, and, in the case of clause (ii), a Definitive Security to such Beneficial Owner in an amount equal to the amount of such Note and/or Purchase Contract corresponding to such Beneficial
Owner’s beneficial interest, in which case the corresponding Global Security shall be reduced by the amount of such interest so exchanged. The Company shall not be liable for any delay in delivery of such instructions and may conclusively rely
on, and shall be protected in relying on, such instructions. Each Definitive Security so delivered shall evidence Units, Purchase Contracts or Notes, as the case may be, of the same kind and tenor as the Global Security so surrendered in respect
thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the exchange of Global Notes for Notes in definitive form shall be governed by the Indenture. 
 Section 3.10. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Securities. If any mutilated Equity-Linked Security is surrendered to the Purchase Contract Agent, the Company shall execute and deliver to
the Purchase Contract Agent and the Trustee, and the Purchase Contract Agent and the 

  
 24 

 
Trustee shall authenticate, the Purchase Contract Agent shall execute on behalf of the Holder, and the Purchase Contract Agent and the Trustee shall deliver in exchange therefor, a new
Equity-Linked Security, evidencing the same number of Units or Separate Purchase Contracts, as the case may be, and bearing a security number not contemporaneously outstanding. 

If there shall be delivered to the Company and the Purchase Contract Agent (i) evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction,
loss or theft of any Equity-Linked Security, and (ii) such security or indemnity as may be reasonably required by them to hold each of them and any agent of any of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Company, the Purchase
Contract Agent or the Trustee that such Equity-Linked Security has been acquired by a protected purchaser, the Company shall execute and deliver to the Purchase Contract Agent and the Trustee, and the Purchase Contract Agent and the Trustee shall
authenticate, the Purchase Contract Agent shall execute on behalf of the Holder, and the Purchase Contract Agent and the Trustee shall deliver to the Holder, in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Equity-Linked Security, a new Equity-Linked
Security, evidencing the same number of Units or Separate Purchase Contracts, as the case may be, and bearing a security number not contemporaneously outstanding. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be obligated to execute and deliver to the Purchase Contract Agent and the Trustee, and the Purchase Contract Agent and the Trustee shall not be
obligated to authenticate, the Purchase Contract Agent shall not be obligated to execute on behalf of the Holder, and the Purchase Contract Agent and the Trustee shall not be obligated to deliver to the Holder, an Equity-Linked Security on or after
the Business Day immediately preceding the earliest of [            ], 2014, any Early Settlement Date, any Early Mandatory Settlement Date and any Fundamental Change Early
Settlement Date with respect to such Equity-Linked Securities. In lieu of delivery of a new Equity-Linked Security, upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions specified above in this Section and receipt of appropriate registration of transfer
instructions from such Holder, the Purchase Contract Agent shall if the Mandatory Settlement Date, any Early Settlement Date, any Early Mandatory Settlement Date or any Fundamental Change Early Settlement Date with respect to such Equity-Linked
Securities has occurred, deliver the shares of Common Stock deliverable in respect of the Purchase Contracts evidenced by such Equity-Linked Security (together with the Separate Note, if such Equity-Linked Security is a Unit). 

Upon the issuance of any new Equity-Linked Security under this Section 3.10, the Company and the Purchase Contract Agent may require the
payment by the Holder of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Purchase Contract Agent) connected therewith. 

Every new Equity-Linked Security issued pursuant to this Section 3.10 in lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen Equity-Linked Security
shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Company and of the Holder in respect of the Unit or Separate Purchase Contract, as the case may be, evidenced thereby, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Equity-Linked
Security shall be found at any time. Such new Equity-Linked Security (and the 

  
 25 

 
Units or Separate Purchase Contracts, as applicable, evidenced thereby) shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits and be subject to all the obligations
of this Agreement equally and proportionately with any and all other Equity-Linked Securities delivered hereunder. 
 The
provisions of this Section 3.10 are exclusive and shall preclude, to the extent lawful, all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Equity-Linked Securities. 

Section 3.11. Persons Deemed Owners. Prior to due presentment of an Equity-Linked Security for registration of transfer, the
Company and the Purchase Contract Agent, and any agent of the Company or the Purchase Contract Agent, may treat the Person in whose name such Equity-Linked Security is registered as the sole owner or Holder of the Unit or Purchase Contract, as the
case may be, evidenced thereby, for the purpose of performance of the Units or Purchase Contracts, as applicable, evidenced by such Equity-Linked Securities and for all other purposes whatsoever, and neither the Company nor the Purchase Contract
Agent, nor any agent of the Company or the Purchase Contract Agent, shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any Global Unit or Global Purchase Contract, nothing contained herein shall prevent the
Company, the Purchase Contract Agent or any agent of the Company or the Purchase Contract Agent, from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by the Depositary (or its nominee), as a Holder, with respect to
such Global Unit or Global Purchase Contract or impair, as between such Depositary and the related Beneficial Owner, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of rights of the Depositary (or its nominee) as Holder of such Global
Unit or Global Purchase Contract. 
 Section 3.12. Cancellation. All Securities surrendered for separation or
recreation and all Equity-Linked Securities surrendered for settlement or upon the registration of transfer or exchange of a Purchase Contract shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the Purchase Contract Agent, be delivered to the Purchase
Contract Agent and, if not already cancelled, be promptly cancelled by it. In the case of a Unit or Units surrendered for settlement, the Company and the Trustee shall promptly authenticate and deliver in accordance with the terms of the Indenture
to the Holder thereof a number of Separate Notes equal to the number of, and in the same form as, the Units so surrendered. The Company may at any time deliver to the Purchase Contract Agent for cancellation any Equity-Linked Securities previously
authenticated, executed and delivered hereunder that the Company may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and all Equity-Linked Securities so delivered shall, upon an Issuer Order, be promptly cancelled by the Purchase Contract Agent. No
Equity-Linked Securities shall be authenticated, executed on behalf of the Holder and delivered in lieu of or in exchange for any Securities cancelled as provided in this Section, except as expressly permitted by this Agreement. All cancelled
Equity-Linked Securities held by the Purchase Contract Agent shall be disposed of in accordance with its customary practices. 

  
 26 

 If the Company or any Affiliate of the Company shall acquire any Equity-Linked Security,
such acquisition shall not operate as a cancellation of such Equity-Linked Security unless and until such Equity-Linked Security is delivered to the Purchase Contract Agent for cancellation. 

ARTICLE 4 

SETTLEMENT OF THE PURCHASE CONTRACTS 

Section 4.01. Settlement Rate. Each Purchase Contract obligates the Company to deliver, on the Mandatory Settlement Date, a
number of shares of Common Stock (subject to Section 4.04 and Article 5) equal to the Settlement Rate as determined by the Company unless such Purchase Contract settles prior to the Mandatory Settlement Date pursuant to Section 5.03 or Section 5.04.

 The number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon settlement of each Purchase Contract on the Mandatory Settlement Date (the
“Settlement Rate”) is equal to: 
 (i) if the Applicable Market Value is equal to or greater
than $[            ] (the “Threshold Appreciation Price”), [            ] shares of Common
Stock for each Purchase Contract (the “Minimum Settlement Rate”); 
 (ii) if the Applicable
Market Value is greater than $[            ] (the “Reference Price”) but less than the Threshold Appreciation Price, a number of shares of Common Stock for each
Purchase Contract equal to the Stated Amount, divided by the Applicable Market Value; and 
 (iii) if the
Applicable Market Value is less than or equal to the Reference Price, [            ] shares of Common Stock for each Purchase Contract (the “Maximum Settlement
Rate”), 
 provided that the Maximum Settlement Rate and the Minimum Settlement Rate (each, a “Fixed Settlement
Rate”) shall each be subject to adjustment as provided in Article 5. 
 Section 4.02. Representations and
Agreements of Holders. Each Holder of a Purchase Contract by its acceptance thereof: 
 (i) irrevocably
authorizes the Purchase Contract Agent to enter into and perform this Agreement on its behalf as its attorney-in-fact; 
 (ii) consents to the provisions hereof; 
 (iii) represents that its
acquisition of the Purchase Contracts and its holding of the same satisfy the applicable fiduciary requirements of ERISA, if any, and that it is entitled to exemption relief from the prohibited transaction provisions of ERISA and the

  
 27 

 
Code in accordance with one or more prohibited transaction exemptions or that such acquisition otherwise will not result in a nonexempt prohibited transaction; 

(iv) in the case of a Holder that holds a Unit, agrees, for United States federal income tax purposes, to treat (1) a
Unit as an investment unit comprising two separate instruments, in accordance with its form and (2) the Notes as indebtedness; and 
 (v) agrees to be bound by the terms and provisions thereof. 

Section 4.03. Delivery Upon Settlement of the Purchase Contracts. (a) Unless the Purchase Contracts have previously
settled, the Company shall on the Mandatory Settlement Date issue and deliver to the Purchase Contract Agent, for the benefit of the Holders of the Outstanding Purchase Contracts, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock to which such Holders
are entitled hereunder, registered in the name of the Purchase Contract Agent (or its nominee) as custodian for the Holders (such shares of Common Stock, together with any dividends or distributions for which a record date and payment date for such
dividend or distribution have occurred on or after the date on which such Holders shall have become the holders of record of such Shares pursuant to the second immediately succeeding sentence, the “Purchase Contract Settlement
Fund”). Prior to the close of business on the last Trading Day of the 20 Trading Day period during which the Applicable Market Value is determined, the shares of Common Stock underlying each Purchase Contract will not be outstanding, and
the Holder of such Purchase Contract will not have any voting rights, rights to dividends or other distributions or other rights of a holder of Common Stock by virtue of holding such Purchase Contract. The Person in whose name any shares of Common
Stock to be issued upon settlement of the Purchase Contract on the Mandatory Settlement Date will become the holder of record of such shares as of the close of business on the last Trading Day of the 20 Trading Day period during which the Applicable
Market Value is determined. 
 (b) Upon book-entry transfer of the Units or Separate Purchase Contracts or surrender of
certificates representing Units or Separate Purchase Contracts in definitive form to the Purchase Contract Agent with duly completed transfer instructions, the Purchase Contract Agent shall transfer the shares of Common Stock underlying such
Purchase Contracts, together with (i) cash in lieu of fractional shares as provided in Section 4.04, (ii) the Separate Note (in the case of the transfer or delivery of Units, but not in the case of settlement on the Mandatory Settlement
Date if such Separate Note also matures on the Mandatory Settlement Date) and (iii) any dividends or distributions with respect to such shares constituting part of the Purchase Contract Settlement Fund, but without any interest thereon, to such
Holder by book-entry transfer, or other appropriate procedures, in accordance with such instructions. 
 Such shares shall be
issued and delivered in the name of the Holder or the Holder’s designee as specified in the settlement instructions provided by the Holder to the Purchase Contract Agent. The Company will pay all documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer
taxes due on the issue of any shares of the Common Stock upon settlement of the Purchase Contracts, unless any such tax is due because the Holder requests issuance of such shares in a name of a Person other than the Person in whose name the Security
evidencing such Purchase Contract is 

  
 28 

 
registered, in which case the Company shall not be required to pay any such tax and no such issuance shall be made unless the Person requesting such registration has paid any such tax or has
established to the satisfaction of the Company that such tax either has been paid or is not payable. 
 In the event a Holder
fails to effect such transfer or delivery, the shares of Common Stock underlying such Purchase Contracts, and any distributions thereon, shall be held in the name of the Purchase Contract Agent or its nominee in trust for the benefit of such Holder,
until the earlier to occur of: 
 (i) the surrender of the relevant Units or Separate Purchase Contracts or
receipt by the Company and the Purchase Contract Agent from such Holder of satisfactory evidence that such Units or Separate Purchase Contracts have been destroyed, lost or stolen, together with any indemnity that may be required by the Purchase
Contract Agent and the Company; and 
 (ii) the expiration of the time period specified in the abandoned property
laws of the relevant jurisdiction. 
 Section 4.04. No Fractional Shares. No fractional shares or scrip certificates
representing fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued or delivered to Holders upon settlement of the Purchase Contracts. In lieu of any fractional shares of Common Stock that would otherwise be issuable upon settlement of any Purchase
Contracts, a Holder of a Security shall be entitled to receive an amount in cash equal to the fraction of a share of Common Stock, calculated on an aggregate basis in respect of the Purchase Contracts being settled, multiplied by the Daily
VWAP of the Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the Mandatory Settlement Date, Early Settlement Date, Fundamental Change Early Settlement Date or Early Mandatory Settlement Date, as the case may be. The Company shall provide the
Purchase Contract Agent from time to time with sufficient funds to permit the Purchase Contract Agent to make all cash payments required by this Section 4.04 in a timely manner. 

Section 4.05. Postponement of Mandatory Settlement Date. If one or more of the 20 Scheduled Trading Days beginning on, and
including, the 23rd Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding [            ], 2014 is not a Trading Day, the Mandatory Settlement Date will be postponed until the third Scheduled
Trading Day immediately following the last Trading Day of the 20 Trading Day period during which the Applicable Market Value is determined. 
 Section 4.06. Consequences of Bankruptcy. The Mandatory Settlement Date for each Purchase Contract, whether held separately or as part of a Unit, will automatically accelerate upon the
occurrence of an Event of Default described in Section 5.01(b) or Section 5.01(c) of the Base Indenture. Upon such acceleration, Holders will be entitled to receive a number of shares of Common Stock per Purchase Contract equal to the
Maximum Settlement Rate in effect immediately prior to such acceleration (regardless of the Applicable Market Value of the Common Stock at that time). 

  
 29 

 ARTICLE 5 
 ADJUSTMENTS 
 Section 5.01. Adjustments to the Fixed
Settlement Rates. (a) Each Fixed Settlement Rate shall be adjusted, from time to time and without duplication, by the Company as described in this Section 5.01, except that no adjustment to the Fixed Settlement Rates will be made if Holders
of Units or any Separate Purchase Contracts may participate in the transaction (at a level based on the Maximum Settlement Rate) that would otherwise give rise to such adjustment at the same time and on the same terms as holders of the Common Stock
without having to settle such Holders’ Purchase Contracts, upon the occurrence of any of the following events: 
 (i) If
the Company exclusively issues shares of Common Stock as a dividend or distribution on shares of its Common Stock, or if the Company effects a share split or share combination, each Fixed Settlement Rate shall be adjusted based on the following
formula: 

 

 

 where, 
  

					
	SR0	  	=	  	the Fixed Settlement Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the Record Date of such dividend or distribution, or immediately prior to the open of business on
the effective date of such share split or share combination, as applicable;
			
	SR1	  	=	  	the Fixed Settlement Rate in effect immediately after the close of business on such Record Date or immediately after the open of business on such effective date;
			
	OS0	  	=	  	the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the close of business on such Record Date or immediately prior to the open of business on such effective date;
and
			
	OS1	  	=	  	the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such dividend, distribution, share split or share combination.

Any adjustment made under this Section 5.01(a)(i) shall become effective immediately after the close of business on the Record Date for such dividend or
distribution, or immediately after the open of business on the effective date for such share split or share combination, as applicable. If any dividend or distribution of the type described in this Section 5.01(a)(i) is declared but not so paid
or made, each Fixed Settlement Rate shall be immediately readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors determines not to pay such dividend or distribution, to the Fixed Settlement Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend or
distribution had not been declared. 

  
 30 

 (ii) If the Company issues to all or substantially all holders of its Common Stock any
rights, options or warrants entitling them, for a period of not more than 60 calendar days after the announcement date of such issuance, to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at a price per share that is less than the average of the
Daily VWAPs of the Common Stock for the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of announcement of such issuance, each Fixed Settlement Rate shall be increased based on the following
formula: 

 

 

 where, 
  

					
	SR0	  	=	  	the Fixed Settlement Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the Record Date for such issuance;
			
	SR1	  	=	  	the Fixed Settlement Rate in effect immediately after the close of business on such Record Date;
			
	OS0	  	=	  	the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the close of business on such Record Date;
			
	X	  	=	  	the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to such rights, options or warrants; and
			
	Y	  	=	  	the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the aggregate price payable to exercise such rights, options or warrants, divided by the average of the Daily VWAPs of the
Common Stock over the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of announcement of the issuance of such rights, options or warrants.

Any increase made under this Section 5.01(a)(ii) shall be made successively whenever any such rights, options or warrants are issued and shall become
effective immediately after the close of business on the Record Date for such issuance. To the extent that shares of the Common Stock are not delivered after the expiration of such rights, options or warrants, each Fixed Settlement Rate shall be
decreased to the Fixed Settlement Rate that would then be in effect had the increase with respect to the issuance of such rights, options or warrants been made on the basis of delivery of only the number of shares of Common Stock actually delivered.
If such rights, options or warrants are not so issued, each Fixed Settlement Rate shall be decreased to the Fixed Settlement Rate that would then be in effect if such Record Date for such issuance had not occurred. 

For the purpose of this Section 5.01(a)(ii), in determining whether any rights, options or warrants entitle the holders to subscribe for
or purchase shares of Common Stock at a price per share that is less than such average of the Daily VWAPs of the Common Stock for the 10 

  
 31 

 
consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of announcement of such issuance, and in determining the aggregate offering price of such
shares of Common Stock, there shall be taken into account any consideration received by the Company for such rights, options or warrants and any amount payable on exercise or conversion thereof, the value of such consideration, if other than cash,
to be determined by the Board of Directors. 
 (iii) If the Company distributes shares of its Capital Stock, evidences of its
indebtedness, other assets or property or rights, options or warrants to acquire its Capital Stock or other securities, to all or substantially all holders of the Common Stock, excluding (A) dividends, distributions or issuances as to which an
adjustment was effected pursuant to Section 5.01(a)(i) or Section 5.01(a)(ii), (B) dividends or distributions paid exclusively in cash as to which an adjustment was effected pursuant to Section 5.01(a)(iv), and (C) Spin-Offs as to which
the provisions set forth below in this Section 5.01(a)(iii) shall apply (any of such shares of Capital Stock, evidences of indebtedness, other assets or property or rights, options or warrants to acquire the Company’s Capital Stock or other
securities, the “Distributed Property”), then each Fixed Settlement Rate shall be increased based on the following formula: 

 

 

 where, 
  

					
	SR0	  	=	  	the Fixed Settlement Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the Record Date for such distribution;
			
	SR1	  	=	  	the Fixed Settlement Rate in effect immediately after the close of business on such Record Date;
			
	SP0	  	=	  	the average of the Daily VWAPs of the Common Stock over the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date
for such distribution; and
			
	FMV	  	=	  	the fair market value (as determined by the Board of Directors) of the Distributed Property with respect to each outstanding share of the Common Stock on the Ex- Dividend Date for
such distribution.

 Any increase made under the portion of this Section 5.01(a)(iii) above shall become
effective immediately after the close of business on the Record Date for such distribution. If such distribution is not so paid or made, each Fixed Settlement Rate shall be decreased to the Fixed Settlement Rate that would then be in effect if such
dividend or distribution had not been declared. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if “FMV” (as defined above) is equal to or greater than “SP0” (as defined above), in lieu of the foregoing increase, each Holder shall receive, in respect of each Unit or
Separate Purchase Contract, at the same time and upon the same terms as holders of the Common Stock receive the Distributed Property, the amount of Distributed Property such Holder would have received if such

  
 32 

 
Holder owned a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Maximum Settlement Rate in effect on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution. 

With respect to an adjustment pursuant to this Section 5.01(a)(iii) where there has been a payment of a dividend or other distribution on
the Common Stock of shares of Capital Stock of any class or series, or similar equity interest, of or relating to a Subsidiary or other business unit of the Company, that are, or, when issued, will be, listed or admitted for trading on a U.S.
national securities exchange (a “Spin-Off”), each Fixed Settlement Rate shall be increased based on the following formula: 

 

 

 where, 
  

					
	SR1	  	=	  	the Fixed Settlement Rate in effect immediately prior to the end of the Valuation Period;
			
	SR0	  	=	  	the Fixed Settlement Rate in effect immediately after the end of the Valuation Period;
			
	FMV0	  	=	  	the average of the Daily VWAPs of the Capital Stock or similar equity interest distributed to holders of Common Stock applicable to one share of Common Stock over the first 10
consecutive Trading Days commencing on, and including, the third Trading Day after the date on which “ex-distribution trading” commences for such dividend or distribution on the NYSE or such other U.S. national securities exchange on which
such Capital Stock or similar equity interest is then listed or quoted (the “Valuation Period”); and
			
	MP0	  	=	  	the average of the Daily VWAPs of the Common Stock over the Valuation Period.

 The adjustment to the Fixed Settlement Rates under the preceding paragraph shall occur on the last Trading Day of the Valuation Period; provided that if any date for determining the number of
shares of Common Stock issuable to a Holder occurs during the Valuation Period, references in the preceding paragraph to 10 Trading Days shall be deemed to be replaced with such lesser number of Trading Days as have elapsed between the Ex-Dividend
Date of such Spin-Off and such determination date for purposes of determining the Fixed Settlement Rates. 
 (iv) If a dividend
or distribution consisting exclusively of cash is made to all or substantially all holders of the Common Stock, each Fixed Settlement Rate shall be adjusted based on the following formula: 

 

 

  
 33 

 where, 
  

					
	SR0	  	=	  	the Fixed Settlement Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the Record Date for such dividend or distribution;
			
	SR1	  	=	  	the Fixed Settlement Rate in effect immediately after the close of business on the Record Date for such dividend or distribution;
			
	SP0	  	=	  	the Daily VWAP of the Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution; and
			
	C	  	=	  	the amount in cash per share the Company distributes to all or substantially all holders of its Common Stock.

Any increase made pursuant to this Section 5.01(a)(iv) shall become effective immediately after the close of business on the Record
Date for such dividend or distribution. If such dividend or distribution is not so paid, each Fixed Settlement Rate shall be decreased, effective as of the date the Board of Directors determines not to make or pay such dividend or distribution, to
the Fixed Settlement Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if “C” (as defined above) is equal to or greater than “SP0” (as defined above), in lieu of the foregoing increase, each Holder
shall receive, in respect of each Unit or Separate Purchase Contract, at the same time and upon the same terms as holders of the Common Stock receive such dividend or distribution, the amount of such dividend or distribution such Holder would have
received if such Holder owned a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Maximum Settlement Rate in effect on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution. 
 (v) If the Company or any of its Subsidiaries makes a payment in respect of a tender or exchange offer for the Common Stock, to the extent that the cash and value of any other consideration included in
the payment per share of Common Stock exceeds the average of the Daily VWAP per share of Common Stock on the Trading Day next succeeding the date (the “Expiration Date”) such tender or exchange offer expires, each Fixed Settlement
Rate shall be increased based on the following formula: 

 

 

 where, 
  

					
	SR0	  	=	  	the Fixed Settlement Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the Expiration Date;
			
	SR1	  	=	  	the Fixed Settlement Rate in effect immediately after the close of business on the Expiration Date;

  
 34 

					
	AC	  	=	  	the aggregate value of all cash and any other consideration (as determined by the Board of Directors) paid or payable for shares purchased in such tender or exchange
offer;
			
	OS0	  	=	  	the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the date such tender or exchange offer expires (prior to giving effect to the purchase of all shares accepted
for purchase or exchange in such tender or exchange offer);
			
	OS1	  	=	  	the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after the date such tender or exchange offer expires (after giving effect to the purchase of all shares accepted for
purchase or exchange in such tender or exchange offer); and
			
	SP1	  	=	  	the average of the Daily VWAPs of the Common Stock over the 10 consecutive Trading Day period commencing on, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration
Date.

 The adjustment to each Fixed Settlement Rate under the immediately preceding paragraph shall occur at the
close of business on the 10th Trading Day immediately following, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Date; provided that if any date for determining the number of shares of Common Stock issuable to a Holder occurs
during the 10 Trading Days immediately following, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Date, references in the preceding paragraph with respect to 10 Trading Days shall be deemed to be replaced with such lesser number of
Trading Days as have elapsed between the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Date and such determination date for purposes of the Fixed Settlement Rates. 
 (b) In addition to those adjustments required by clauses (i), (ii), (iii), (iv) and (v) of Section 5.01(a), and to the extent permitted by applicable law and subject to the applicable rules
of the NYSE, the Company from time to time may increase the Fixed Settlement Rates by any amount for a period of at least 20 Business Days if the Board of Directors determines that such increase would be in the Company’s best interest. In
addition, the Company may (but is not required to) increase each Fixed Settlement Rate to avoid or diminish income tax to holders of Common Stock or rights to purchase shares of Common Stock in connection with a dividend or distribution of shares
(or rights to acquire shares) or similar event. Whether the Fixed Settlement Rate is increased pursuant to either of the two preceding sentences, the Company may make such an adjustment only so long as the Company makes the same proportionate
adjustment to each Fixed Settlement Rate. 
 (c) To the extent that the Company has a rights plan in effect upon settlement of a
Purchase Contract, the Holder of such Purchase Contract will receive, in addition to shares of Common Stock, the rights under the rights plan, unless, prior to settlement of such Purchase Contract, the rights have separated from the Common Stock, in
which case, and only in such case, each Fixed Settlement Rate shall be adjusted at the time of separation as if the Company distributed to all holders of the Common Stock shares of Capital Stock, evidences of

  
 35 

 
indebtedness, assets, property, rights, options or warrants as described in Section 5.01(a)(iii), subject to readjustment in the event of the expiration, termination or redemption of such rights.

 (d) Adjustments to each Fixed Settlement Rate shall be calculated to the nearest 1/10,000th of a share (or if there is not a
nearest 1/10,000th of a share, to the next lower 1/10,000th of a share). No adjustment in the Fixed Settlement Rates will be required unless the adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least one percent. If any adjustment is not
required to be made because it would not change the Fixed Settlement Rates by at least one percent, then the adjustment will be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment; provided that, on any date for determining
the number of shares of Common Stock issuable to a Holder, adjustments to the Fixed Settlement Rates will be made with respect to any such adjustment carried forward and which has not been taken into account before such determination date.

 (e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article 5, the Fixed Settlement Rates shall not be adjusted: 

(i) upon the issuance of any Common Stock pursuant to any present or future plan providing for the reinvestment of
dividends or interest payable on the Company’s securities and the investment of additional optional amounts in Common Stock under any plan; 
 (ii) upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock or rights, options or warrants to purchase the Common Stock pursuant to any present or future employee, director or consultant benefit plan or program
of or assumed by the Company or any of the Company’s Subsidiaries; 
 (iii) upon the issuance of any shares
of the Common Stock pursuant to any option, warrant, right or exercisable, exchangeable or convertible security outstanding as of the date of this Agreement; or 
 (iv) solely for a change in the par value or no par value of the Common Stock. 

(f) Whenever the Fixed Settlement Rates are adjusted, the Company shall deliver to the Purchase Contract Agent an Officers’
Certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the method by which the adjustment to each Fixed Settlement Rate was determined and setting forth each revised Fixed Settlement Rate. In addition, the Company shall, within five Business Days of any
event requiring such adjustment, provide or cause to be provided written notice of the adjustment to the Holders of the Units and Separate Purchase Contracts and describe in reasonable detail the method by which each Fixed Settlement Rate was
adjusted. Such notification may be made by a press release, notwithstanding Section 1.06. The Purchase Contract Agent shall not at any time be under any duty or responsibility to any Holder of Purchase Contracts to determine whether any facts exist
that may require any adjustment of any Fixed Settlement Rate, or with respect to the nature or extent or calculation of any such adjustment when made, or with respect to the method employed in making the same. The Purchase Contract Agent shall not
be accountable 

  
 36 

 
with respect to the validity or value (or the kind or amount) of any shares of Common Stock that may at the time be delivered with respect to any Purchase Contract, and the Purchase Contract
Agent makes no representation with respect thereto. The Purchase Contract Agent shall not be responsible for any failure of the Company to transfer or deliver any shares of Common Stock pursuant to a Purchase Contract or to comply with any of the
duties, responsibilities or covenants of the Company contained in this Article 5. All calculations and determinations pursuant to this Article 5 shall be made by the Company or its agent and the Purchase Contract Agent shall have no responsibility
with respect thereto. 
 (g) Each adjustment to each Fixed Settlement Rate shall result in a corresponding adjustment to the
Early Settlement Rate and the Early Mandatory Settlement Rate. If an adjustment is made to the Fixed Settlement Rates, an inversely proportional adjustment shall also be made to the Reference Price solely for the purposes of determining which
clauses of the definition of the Settlement Rate will apply on the Mandatory Settlement Date. For the avoidance of doubt, no separate inversely proportional adjustment will be made to the Threshold Appreciation Price because it is equal to
$[            ], divided by the Minimum Settlement Rate (rounded to the nearest $0.01) as adjusted in the manner described herein. Because (a) the Applicable Market Value
is an average of the Daily VWAPs of the Common Stock over a 20 consecutive Trading Day period and (b) the Fundamental Change Early Settlement Rate is generally calculated based on an average of the Daily VWAPs over a 10 Trading Day period, the
Company shall make appropriate adjustments to the Daily VWAPs prior to the relevant issuance date, Record Date, Ex-Dividend Date, Effective Date or Expiration Date, as the case may be, used to calculate the Applicable Market Value to account for any
adjustments to the Fixed Settlement Rates that become effective during the period in which the Applicable Market Value or the Stock Price, as the case may be, is being calculated. 

(h) The Board of Directors shall have the power to resolve any ambiguity or, subject to applicable law, correct any error in this Article
5, and its action in so doing shall be final and conclusive. 
 (i) For purposes of Section 5.01 and Section 5.02, the number of
shares of Common Stock at any time outstanding shall not include shares held in the treasury of the Company. The Company will not pay any dividend or make any distribution on shares of Common Stock held in the treasury of the Company. 

Section 5.02. Recapitalizations, Reclassifications and Changes of the Common Stock. In the event of: 

(i) any consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another Person (other than a merger or consolidation in which
the Company is the continuing or surviving corporation and in which the shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the merger or consolidation are not exchanged for cash, securities or other property of the Company or another Person);

  
 37 

 (ii) any sale, transfer, lease or conveyance to another Person of all or
substantially all of the Company’s property and assets; 
 (iii) any reclassification of the Common Stock
into securities including securities other than the Common Stock; or 
 (iv) any statutory exchange of the
Company’s securities with another Person (other than in connection with a merger or acquisition); 
 in each case, as a result of which the
Common Stock would be converted into, or exchanged for, securities, cash or property (each, a “Reorganization Event”), each Purchase Contract outstanding immediately prior to such Reorganization Event shall, without the consent of
the Holders of the Purchase Contracts, become a contract to purchase the kind of securities, cash and other property that such Holder would have been entitled to receive if such Holder had settled its Purchase Contracts immediately prior to such
Reorganization Event (such securities, cash and other property, the “Exchange Property,” with each “unit of Exchange Property” meaning the kind and amount of Exchange Property that a holder of one share of Common
Stock would have been entitled to receive). For purposes of the foregoing, the type and amount of Exchange Property in the case of any Reorganization Event that causes the Common Stock to be converted into the right to receive more than a single
type of consideration (determined based in part upon any form of shareholder election) will be deemed to be the weighted average of the types and amounts of consideration received by the holders of the Common Stock that affirmatively make such an
election (or of all holders of the Common Stock if none makes an election). The Company shall notify Holders of the Units and Separate Purchase Contracts of the weighted average as soon as practicable after such determination is made. The number of
units of Exchange Property for each Purchase Contract settled following the Effective Date of such Reorganization Event will be determined by the Fixed Settlement Rates then in effect on the Mandatory Settlement Date, Early Settlement Date, Early
Mandatory Settlement Date or Fundamental Change Early Settlement Date, as applicable (without interest thereon and without any right to dividends or distributions thereon that have a record date prior to the date such Purchase Contracts are actually
settled). For the purpose of determining which clause of the definition of Settlement Rate will apply in respect of settlement of a Purchase Contract pursuant to Section 4.01, and for the purpose of calculating the Settlement Rate if clause
(ii) is applicable, the value of a unit of Exchange Property will be determined in good faith by the Board of Directors, except that if a unit of Exchange Property includes common stock or ADRs that are traded on a U.S. national securities
exchange, the value of such common stock or ADRs will be the average during the 20 consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the third Trading Day immediately preceding the Mandatory Settlement Date of the volume weighted average
prices for such common stock or ADRs, as displayed on the applicable Bloomberg screen (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors); or, if such price is not available, the average market value per share of such common stock or ADRs over
such period as determined, using a volume-weighted average method, by a nationally recognized independent investment banking firm retained by the Company for this purpose. The Company (or any successor to the Company) will, as soon as reasonably
practicable (but in any event within 20 calendar days) after the occurrence of any Reorganization Event, provide written notice to the 

  
 38 

 
Holders of Units and Separate Purchase Contract of such occurrence and of the kind and amount of cash, securities or other property that constitute the Exchange Property. Failure to deliver such
notice will not affect the operation of the provisions described in this Section 5.02. 
 Section 5.03. Early Settlement
Upon A Fundamental Change. (a) If a Fundamental Change occurs and a Holder elects to settle its Purchase Contracts early in connection with such Fundamental Change in accordance with Section 5.04, such Holder shall receive a number of
shares of Common Stock based on the Fundamental Change Early Settlement Rate (the “Fundamental Change Early Settlement Right”). An Early Settlement shall be deemed for these purposes to be “in connection with” such
Fundamental Change if the Holder delivers an Early Settlement Notice to the Purchase Contract Agent, and otherwise satisfies the requirements for effecting Early Settlement of its Purchase Contracts, during the period beginning on, and including,
the Effective Date of the Fundamental Change and ending at the close of business on the 30th Business Day thereafter (or, if earlier, the third Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding
[            ], 2014) (“the Fundamental Change Early Settlement Period”). 
 If a Holder complies with the requirements for effecting Early Settlement upon a Fundamental Change earlier than the close of business on any Business Day during the Fundamental Change Early Settlement
Period, then that day will be considered the “Fundamental Change Early Settlement Date.” If a Holder complies with such requirements at or after the close of business on any Business Day during the Fundamental Change Early
Settlement Period or at any time on a day during the Fundamental Change Early Settlement Period that is not a Business Day, then the next Business Day will be considered the “Fundamental Change Early Settlement Date” if such
Business Day is during the Fundamental Change Early Settlement Period. 
 (b) The Company shall provide the Purchase Contract
Agent and the Holders of Units and Separate Purchase Contracts with notice of a Fundamental Change within five Business Days after its occurrence, issue a press release announcing the Effective Date and post such press release on its website. The
notice shall set forth, among other things, (i) the applicable Fundamental Change Early Settlement Rate, (ii) if not the Common Stock, the kind and amount of cash, securities and other property receivable by the Holder upon settlement and
(iii) the deadline by which each Holder’s Fundamental Change Early Settlement Right must be exercised. 
 (c) The
“Fundamental Change Early Settlement Rate” shall be determined by the Company by reference to the table below, based on the date on which the Fundamental Change occurs or becomes effective (the “Effective Date”) and
the stock price (the “Stock Price”) in the Fundamental Change, which shall be: 
 (i) in the
case of a Fundamental Change described in clause (iii) of the definition of Fundamental Change in which holders of shares of Common Stock receive only cash in the Fundamental Change, the Stock Price shall be the cash amount paid per share of
Common Stock; and 

  
 39 

 (ii) in all other cases, the Stock Price shall be the average of the Daily
VWAPs of the Common Stock over the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the Effective Date. 
 (d) The Stock Prices set forth in the first column of the table below shall be adjusted as of any date on which any Fixed Settlement Rate is otherwise adjusted. The adjusted Stock Prices shall equal the
Stock Prices applicable immediately prior to such adjustment, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Maximum Settlement Rate immediately prior to the adjustment giving rise to the Stock Price adjustment and the denominator of
which is the Maximum Settlement Rate as so adjusted. The number of shares in the table below shall be adjusted in the same manner as the Fixed Settlement Rates as set forth in Section 5.01. 

(e) The following table sets forth the Fundamental Change Early Settlement Rate per Purchase Contract for each Stock Price and Effective
Date set forth below: 
  

									
	 	  	 Effective Date

	 Stock Price
	  	 	  	 	  	 	  	 
	 $
	  		  		  		  	
	 $
	  		  		  		  	
	 $
	  		  		  		  	
	 $

	 $
	  		  		  		  	
	 $
	  		  		  		  	
	 $
	  		  		  		  	

 The exact Stock Prices and Effective Dates may not be set forth in the table above, in which case:

  

	 	(i)	if the Stock Price is between two Stock Prices in the table or the Effective Date is between two Effective Dates in the table, the Fundamental Change Early Settlement
Rate shall be determined by straight-line interpolation between the Fundamental Change Early Settlement Rates set forth for the higher and lower Stock Prices and the earlier and later Effective Dates, as applicable, based on a 365-day year;

  

	 	(ii)	if the Stock Price is greater than $[            ] per share (subject to adjustment in the same
manner as the Stock Prices set forth in the column headings of the table above), then the Fundamental Change Early Settlement Rate shall be the Minimum Settlement Rate; or 

 

	 	(iii)	 if the Stock Price is less than $[            ] per share (subject to adjustment in
the same manner as the Stock Prices set forth in the column headings of the table above, the “Minimum Stock Price”), the Fundamental Change Early Settlement Rate shall be determined as if the Stock Price equaled the Minimum Stock
Price, and using straight 

  
 40 

	 	 
line interpolation, as described in clause (i) of this Section 5.04(e), if the Effective Date is between two Effective Dates in the table. 

The maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable under a Purchase Contract is
[            ], subject to adjustment in the same manner as the Fixed Settlement rates as set forth under Section 5.01. 

(f) Upon Early Settlement of the Purchase Contract component of a Unit upon a Fundamental Change, the corresponding Note will remain
outstanding and registered in the name of the Holder who elected to settle the related Purchase Contract early upon the Fundamental Change. 
 (g) If a Holder does not elect to exercise the Fundamental Change Early Settlement Right, such Holder’s Purchase Contracts shall remain outstanding and shall be subject to normal settlement on any
subsequent Early Settlement Date, Early Mandatory Settlement Date, Fundamental Change Early Settlement Date or the Mandatory Settlement Date, including, if applicable, the provisions set forth in Section 5.02. 

Section 5.04. Early Settlement. (a) Subject to and upon compliance with the provisions of this Section 5.04, on any
Trading Day prior to the close of business on the third Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding [            ], 2014, a Holder may elect to settle its Purchase Contracts early,
in whole or in part (“Early Settlement”) and receive shares of Common Stock at the Early Settlement Rate. 

(b) A Holder’s right to receive Common Stock upon Early Settlement of any of its Purchase Contracts is subject to the following
conditions: 
 (i) delivery of a written and signed notice of election (an “Early Settlement
Notice”) to the Purchase Contract Agent electing Early Settlement of such Purchase Contract; 
 (ii) if
such Purchase Contract or the Unit that includes such Purchase Contract is in the form of a Definitive Security, surrendering the certificates representing the Purchase Contract to the Purchase Contract Agent at the Corporate Trust Office duly
endorsed for transfer to the Company or in blank with the form of Election to Settle Early on the reverse thereof duly completed, or if such Purchase Contract is represented by a Global Security, compliance with the applicable procedures of the
Depositary; and 
 (iii) payment by such Holder of any transfer or similar taxes payable in connection with the
issuance of Common Stock to any Person other than such Holder pursuant to subsection (c) below. 
 If a Holder complies with the requirements
set forth in clauses (i) through (iii) above earlier than the close of business on any Business Day, then that Business Day shall be considered the “Early Settlement Date.” If a Holder complies with the requirements set
forth in clauses (i) through (iii) above at or after the close of business on any Business Day or at any time on a day 

  
 41 

 
that is not a Business Day, then the next Business Day shall be considered the “Early Settlement Date.” The Person in whose name any shares of Common Stock to be issued upon such
Early Settlement of the Purchase Contract shall become the holder of record of such shares as of the close of business on the relevant Early Settlement Date. 
 (c) Upon surrender or book-entry transfer of such Purchase Contracts or the related Units and payment of any applicable transfer or similar taxes due because of any issuance of Common Stock to any Person
other than the Holder, the Company shall cause a number of shares of Common Stock, calculated at the Early Settlement Rate to be issued and delivered, together with a cash payment in lieu of any fractional share as provided in Section 4.04, as
promptly as practicable, but no later than the third Business Day, following the Early Settlement Date. Such shares shall be registered in the name of the Holder or the Holder’s designee, and shall be delivered, as specified on the applicable
form of Election to Settle Early provided by the Holder to the Purchase Contract Agent. If any shares of Common Stock deliverable in respect of a Purchase Contract are to be registered to a Person other than the Person in whose name the Security
evidencing such Purchase Contract is registered, no such registration shall be made unless the Person requesting such registration has paid any transfer and other taxes required by reason of such registration in a name other than that of the
registered Holder of the Certificate evidencing such Purchase Contract or has established to the satisfaction of the Company that such tax either has been paid or is not payable. 

(d) In the event that Early Settlement is effected with respect to Purchase Contracts that are a component of Units, upon such Early
Settlement the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall execute on behalf of the Holder, authenticate and deliver to the Holder thereof, at the expense of the Company, a Security, in the same form as the Units submitted to effect such Early
Settlement, evidencing a number of Separate Notes equal to the number of Purchase Contracts as to which Early Settlement was effected. 
 (e) In the event that Early Settlement is effected with respect to Purchase Contracts represented by less than all the Purchase Contracts evidenced by a Security, upon such Early Settlement the Company
shall execute and the Purchase Contract Agent shall execute on behalf of the Holder, authenticate and deliver to the Holder thereof, at the expense of the Company, a Security evidencing the Purchase Contracts as to which Early Settlement was not
effected. 
 Section 5.05. Early Mandatory Settlement at the Company's Election. (a) The Company shall have the
right to settle the Purchase Contracts early, in whole but not in part (the “Early Mandatory Settlement Right”), on the Early Mandatory Settlement Date at the Early Mandatory Settlement Rate. 

(b) If the Company elects to exercise its Early Mandatory Settlement Right, the Company will provide the Purchase Contract Agent and the
Holders of Units, Separate Purchase Contracts and Separate Notes with a notice of its election (the “Early Mandatory Settlement Notice”), issue a press release announcing its election and post such press release on its website. The
Early Mandatory Settlement Notice shall specify, among other things: 

  
 42 

 (i) the Early Mandatory Settlement Rate; 

(ii) the date on which the Company will deliver shares of Common Stock following exercise of its Early Mandatory
Settlement Right (the “Early Mandatory Settlement Date”), which shall be at least 10 but not more than 30 Business Days following the date of the Company’s notice (the “Notice Date”); 

(iii) that Holders of Units and Separate Notes will have the right to require the Company to repurchase their Notes that
are a component of the Units or their Separate Notes, as the case may be (subject to certain exceptions described in the Indenture); 
 (iv) if applicable, the Repurchase Price and Repurchase Date; 
 (v)
if applicable, the last date on which Holders may exercise their Repurchase Right; and 
 (vi) if applicable, the
procedures that Holders must follow to require the Company to repurchase their Notes (in accordance with the Indenture). 
 The
Company will deliver the shares of Common Stock and any cash payable for fractional shares to the Holders of the Purchase Contract on the Early Mandatory Settlement Date. The Person in whose name any shares of the Common Stock to be issued following
exercise of the Early Mandatory Settlement Right shall become the holder of record of such shares as of the close of business on the Notice Date. 
 ARTICLE 6 
 REMEDIES 

Section 6.01. Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive Shares of Common Stock. Each Holder of a Purchase Contract (whether
or not included in a Unit) shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive the shares of Common Stock pursuant to such Purchase Contract and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such right to receive the shares of
Common Stock, and such right shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder. 
 Section 6.02. Limitation on
Proceedings. No Holder of Purchase Contracts may institute any proceedings, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Agreement or for any remedy hereunder, except in the case of failure of the Purchase Contract Agent, for 60 days, to act
after the Purchase Contract Agent has received a written request to institute proceedings in respect of a default with respect to any covenant hereunder from the Holders of not less than 25% of the Outstanding Purchase Contracts, as well as an offer
of indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Purchase Contract Agent. This provision will not prevent any Holder of Purchase Contracts from instituting suit for the delivery of Common Stock deliverable upon settlement of the Purchase Contracts on the
Mandatory Settlement Date or any Early Settlement Date, Fundamental Change Settlement Date or Early Mandatory Settlement Date. 

  
 43 

 Section 6.03. Restoration of Rights and Remedies. If any Holder has instituted
any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Agreement and such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to such Holder, then and in every such case, subject to any determination in
such proceeding, the Company and such Holder shall be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder and thereafter all rights and remedies of such Holder shall continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted.

 Section 6.04. Rights and Remedies Cumulative. Except as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or
payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities in the last paragraph of Section 3.10, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and
remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder,
or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy. 

Section 6.05. Delay or Omission Not Waiver. No delay or omission of any Holder to exercise any right or remedy upon a default
hereunder shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such right. Every right and remedy given by this Article or by law to the Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by such
Holders. 
 Section 6.06. Undertaking for Costs. All parties to this Agreement agree, and each Holder of a Purchase
Contract, by its acceptance of such Purchase Contract shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Agreement, or in any suit against the Purchase
Contract Agent for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it as Purchase Contract Agent, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable
costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant; provided that the provisions of this
Section shall not apply to any suit instituted by (a) the Purchase Contract Agent, (b) any Holder, or group of Holders, holding in the aggregate more than 10% of the Outstanding Purchase Contracts, or (c) any Holder for the
enforcement of the right to receive shares of Common Stock or other Reference Property under the Purchase Contracts held by such Holder. 
 Section 6.07. Waiver of Stay or Execution Laws. The Company covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever
claim or assume or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, that may affect the covenants or the performance of this Agreement; and the Company (to the extent that it may
lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law and covenants that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Purchase Contract

  
 44 

 
Agent or the Holders, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted. 

Section 6.08. Control by Majority. The Holders of not less than a majority of the Outstanding Purchase Contracts shall have
the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Purchase Contract Agent, or of exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Purchase Contract Agent; provided that the Purchase
Contract Agent has received indemnity satisfactory to it. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Purchase Contract Agent may refuse to follow any direction that is in conflict with any law or this Agreement, that may involve it in personal liability or
that may be unduly prejudicial to the Holders of Purchase Contracts not joining in the action. 
 ARTICLE 7 

THE PURCHASE CONTRACT AGENT 

Section 7.01. Certain Duties and Responsibilities. (a) The Purchase Contract Agent: 

(i) undertakes to perform, with respect to the Purchase Contracts, such duties and only such duties as are specifically
delegated to it and set forth in this Agreement, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Agreement against the Purchase Contract Agent; and 

(ii) in the absence of bad faith or gross negligence on its own part, may, with respect to the Purchase Contracts,
conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Purchase Contract Agent and conforming to the requirements of this Agreement but in the case
of any certificates or opinions that by any provision hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the Purchase Contract Agent, the Purchase Contract Agent shall be under a duty to examine the same to determine whether or not they conform to
the requirements of this Agreement (but need not confirm or investigate the accuracy of the mathematical calculations or other facts stated therein and may assume the genuineness of all signatures). 

(b) No provision of this Agreement shall be construed to relieve the Purchase Contract Agent from liability for its own grossly negligent
action, its own grossly negligent failure to act, its own willful misconduct or its own bad faith, except that: 

(i) this subsection shall not be construed to limit the effect of subsection (a) of this Section; 

(ii) the Purchase Contract Agent shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible
Officer, unless it shall be proved that the Purchase Contract Agent was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; 

  
 45 

 (iii) no provision of this Agreement shall require the Purchase Contract
Agent to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if indemnity satisfactory to the Purchase Contract Agent is not
provided to it; and 
 (iv) the Purchase Contract Agent shall not be liable with respect to any action taken or
omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the direction of the Holders of a majority in number of the Outstanding Purchase Contracts. 
 (c) Whether or not herein or therein expressly so provided, every provision of this Agreement relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Purchase Contract Agent
shall be subject to the provisions of this Section 7.01.

 49 

 (ii) the Purchase Contract Agent shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent
or a receiver of the Purchase Contract Agent or of its property shall be appointed or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Purchase Contract Agent or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or
liquidation, 
 then, in any such case, (x) the Company by a Board Resolution may remove the Purchase Contract Agent, or (y) any
Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Purchase Contract for at least six months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Purchase Contract Agent and the
appointment of a successor Purchase Contract Agent. 
 (e) If the Purchase Contract Agent shall resign, be removed or become
incapable of acting, or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of Purchase Contract Agent for any cause, the Company shall promptly appoint a successor Purchase Contract Agent and shall comply with the applicable requirements of Section 7.10. If no
successor Purchase Contract Agent shall have been so appointed by the Company and accepted appointment in the manner required by Section 7.10, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Purchase Contract for at least six months, on behalf of
itself and all others similarly situated, or the Purchase Contract Agent may petition at the expense of the Company, any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Purchase Contract Agent. 

(f) The Company shall give, or shall cause such successor Purchase Contract Agent to give, notice of each resignation and each removal of
the Purchase Contract Agent and each appointment of a successor Purchase Contract Agent by mailing written notice of such event by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to Holders as their names and addresses appear in the applicable Register. Each
notice shall include the name of the successor Purchase Contract Agent and the address of its Corporate Trust Office. 

Section 7.10. Acceptance of Appointment by Successor. (a) In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Purchase
Contract Agent, every such successor Purchase Contract Agent so appointed shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company and to the retiring Purchase Contract Agent an instrument accepting such appointment, and thereupon the resignation or
removal of the retiring Purchase Contract Agent shall become effective and such successor Purchase Contract Agent, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, agencies and duties of the retiring
Purchase Contract Agent; but, at the request of the Company or the successor Purchase Contract Agent, such retiring Purchase Contract Agent shall, upon its receipt of payment of its charges, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such
successor Purchase Contract Agent all the rights, powers and trusts of the retiring Purchase Contract Agent and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Purchase Contract Agent all property and money held by such retiring Purchase
Contract Agent hereunder. 
 (b) Upon request of any such successor Purchase Contract Agent, the Company shall execute any and
all instruments for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such 

  
 50 

 
successor Purchase Contract Agent all such rights, powers and agencies referred to in paragraph Section 7.10(a) of this Section. 

(c) No successor Purchase Contract Agent shall accept its appointment unless at the time of such acceptance such successor Purchase
Contract Agent shall be qualified and eligible under this Article. 
 Section 7.11. Merger; Conversion; Consolidation or
Succession to Business. Any corporation into which the Purchase Contract Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Purchase
Contract Agent shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all the corporate trust business of the Purchase Contract Agent, shall be the successor of the Purchase Contract Agent hereunder; provided that such
corporation shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto. If any Securities shall have been authenticated and executed on
behalf of the Holders, but not delivered, by the Purchase Contract Agent then in office, any successor by merger, conversion or consolidation to such Purchase Contract Agent may adopt such authentication and execution and deliver the Securities so
authenticated and executed with the same effect as if such successor Purchase Contract Agent had itself authenticated and executed such Purchase Contracts. 
 Section 7.12. Preservation of Information; Communications to Holders. (a) The Purchase Contract Agent shall preserve, in as current a form as is reasonably practicable, the names and
addresses of Holders as received by the Purchase Contract Agent in its capacity as Security Registrar. 
 (b) If three or more
Holders (such three or more Holders, the “applicants”) apply in writing to the Purchase Contract Agent, and furnish to the Purchase Contract Agent reasonable proof that each such applicant has owned a Unit or Separate Purchase
Contract for a period of at least six months preceding the date of such application, and such application states that the applicants desire to communicate with other Holders with respect to their rights under this Agreement or under the Units or
Separate Purchase Contracts and is accompanied by a copy of the form of proxy or other communication that such applicants propose to transmit, then the Purchase Contract Agent shall mail to all the Holders copies of the form of proxy or other
communication that is specified in such request, with reasonable promptness after a tender to the Purchase Contract Agent of the materials to be mailed and of payment, or provision for the payment, of the reasonable expenses of such mailing.

 Section 7.13. No Obligations of Purchase Contract Agent. Except to the extent otherwise expressly provided in
this Agreement, the Purchase Contract Agent assumes no obligations and shall not be subject to any liability under this Agreement or Security evidencing a Unit or Purchase Contract in respect of the obligations of the Holder of any Unit or Purchase
Contract thereunder. The Company agrees, and each Holder of a Securities, by his or her acceptance thereof, shall be deemed to have agreed, that the Purchase Contract Agent’s execution of the Securities on behalf of the Holders shall be solely
as agent and attorney-in-fact 

  
 51 

 
for the Holders, and that the Purchase Contract Agent shall have no obligation to perform such Purchase Contracts (whether held as components of Units or Separate Purchase Contracts) on behalf of
the Holders, except to the extent expressly provided in Article 3 hereof. Anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in no event shall the Purchase Contract Agent or its officers, employees or agents be liable under this
Agreement to any third party for indirect, special, punitive, or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever, including lost profits, whether or not the likelihood of such loss or damage was known to the Purchase Contract Agent, incurred
without any act or deed that is found to be attributable to gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith on the part of the Purchase Contract Agent. 
 Section 7.14. Tax Compliance. (a) The Company and the Purchase Contract Agent shall comply with all applicable certification, information reporting and withholding (including
“backup” withholding) requirements imposed by applicable tax laws, regulations or administrative practice with respect to (i) any payments made with respect to the Purchase Contracts or (ii) the issuance, delivery, holding,
transfer, redemption or exercise of rights under the Purchase Contracts. Such compliance shall include, without limitation, the preparation and timely filing of required returns and the timely payment of all amounts required to be withheld to the
appropriate taxing authority or its designated agent. 
 (b) The Purchase Contract Agent shall comply in accordance with the
terms hereof with any written direction received from the Company with respect to the execution or certification of any required documentation and the application of such requirements to particular payments or Holders or in other particular
circumstances, and may for purposes of this Agreement conclusively rely on any such direction in accordance with the provisions of Section 7.01(a)(ii) hereof. 
 (c) The Purchase Contract Agent shall maintain all appropriate records documenting compliance with such requirements, and shall make such records available, on written request, to the Company or its
authorized representative within a reasonable period of time after receipt of such request.

(iv) impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of the Purchase Contracts. 

It shall not be necessary for any Act of Holders under this Section to approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental agreement, but it shall

 53 

 Section 8.03. Execution of Supplemental Agreements. In executing, or accepting
the additional agencies created by, any supplemental agreement permitted by this Article or the modifications thereby of the agencies created by this Agreement, the Purchase Contract Agent shall be provided, and (subject to Section 7.01) shall be

Company covenants that it will not consolidate with or merge into another corporation or convey, transfer or lease its assets substantially as an entirety to any Person, unless:

 54 

 Section 9.02. Rights and Duties of Successor Entity. Upon any such

delivered to the Purchase Contract Agent; and, upon the order of such successor entity, instead of the Company, and subject to all the terms, conditions and limitations in this Agreement prescribed, the Purchase Contract Agent shall authenticate and

Units or Purchase Contracts that such successor corporation thereafter shall cause to be signed and delivered to the Purchase Contract Agent for that purpose. All the Securities issued shall in all respects have the same legal rank and benefit under
this Agreement as the Securities theretofore or thereafter issued in accordance with the terms of this Agreement as though all of such Securities had been issued at the date of the execution hereof. 

In the event of any such consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer or lease, such change in phraseology and form (but not in substance)
may be made in the Securities evidencing Units or Purchase Contracts thereafter to be issued as may be appropriate.

Settlement Date or any Early Mandatory Settlement Date and where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Purchase Contracts and this Agreement may be served. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Purchase Contract
Agent of the location, and any change in the location, of such office or agency. If at any 

  
 55 

 
time the Company shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Purchase Contract Agent with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices
and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office, and the Company hereby appoints the Purchase Contract Agent as its agent to receive all such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands. 

The Company may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies where Securities may be presented or surrendered
for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations; provided, however, that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Company of its obligation to maintain an office or agency in
the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, for such purposes. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Purchase Contract Agent of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any such other office or agency.
The Company hereby designates as the place of payment for the Purchase Contracts the Corporate Trust Office and appoints the Purchase Contract Agent at its Corporate Trust Office as paying agent in such city. 

Section 10.03. Statements of Officers of the Company as to Default. The Company will deliver to the Purchase Contract Agent,
within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year of the Company (which as of the date hereof is December 31) ending after the date hereof, an Officers’ Certificate (one of the signers of which shall be the principal executive officer,
principal financial officer or principal accounting officer of the Company), stating whether or not to the knowledge of the signers thereof the Company is in default in the performance and observance of any of the terms, provisions and conditions
hereof, and if the Company shall be in default, specifying all such defaults and the nature and status thereof of which they may have knowledge. 
 Section 10.04. Existence. Except as otherwise permitted under Article 9, the Company will do or cause to be done all things necessary to maintain in full force its legal existence, rights
(charter and statutory) and franchises, except that the Company is not required to preserve any right or franchise if the Company determines that it is no longer desirable in the conduct of its business and the loss is not disadvantageous in any
material respect to the Holders of any Purchase Contracts. 
 Section 10.05. Company to Reserve Common Stock. The
Company shall at all times prior to the Mandatory Settlement Date reserve and keep available, free from preemptive rights, out of its authorized but unissued Common Stock, solely for issuance upon settlement of the Purchase Contracts, that number of
shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be issuable upon the settlement of all Outstanding Purchase Contracts (whether or not included in a Unit), assuming settlement at the Maximum Settlement Rate. 

Section 10.06. Covenants as to Common Stock. The Company covenants that all shares of Common Stock that may be issued upon
settlement of any Purchase Contract represented by the Outstanding Securities will, upon issuance, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, free from all taxes, liens and charges and not subject to any preemptive rights.

  
 56 

 The Company further covenants that, if at any time the Common Stock shall be listed on the
NYSE or any other national securities exchange, the Company will, if permitted by the rules of such exchange, list and keep listed, so long as the Common Stock shall be so listed on such exchange, all Common Stock issuable upon settlement of the
Purchase Contracts; provided, however, that, if the rules of such exchange system permit the Company to defer the listing of such Common Stock until the first delivery of Common Stock upon settlement of Purchase Contracts in accordance
with the provisions of this Agreement, the Company covenants to list such Common Stock issuable upon settlement of the Purchase Contracts in accordance with the requirements of such exchange at such time. 

The Company shall apply to list the Units on the NYSE under the symbol “AllyPrC.” 

Section 10.07. Tax Treatment. The Company agrees, and by purchasing a Unit each Holder agrees, for United States federal
income tax purposes, to treat (1) a Unit as an investment unit comprising two separate instruments, in accordance with its form and (2) the Notes as indebtedness.

terms upon which the Purchase Contracts are, and are to be, executed and delivered. 
 Each Purchase Contract evidenced hereby
obligates the Company to deliver to the Holder of this Purchase Contract, on the Mandatory Settlement Date, a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Settlement Rate, unless such Purchase Contract settles prior to the Mandatory Settlement

 ALLY FINANCIAL INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”, which term includes any successor corporation under the Indenture hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises
to pay to CEDE & CO., or registered assigns, the initial principal sum of $[            .        ] for each of the number of
Notes set forth above, or such lesser number of Notes as set forth in the Schedule of Increases or Decreases in Global Note attached hereto, in quarterly installments (each constituting a payment of interest at the rate per year of
[    .    ]% and a partial repayment of principal) payable on [                    ],
[                    ],
[                    ] and
[                    ] of each year (each such date, an “Installment Payment Date”), commencing on
[            ], 2011, all as set forth on the reverse hereof, with the final scheduled installment due and payable on
[            ], 2014. The installment amount payable on any Installment Payment Date shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. If an
installment is payable for any period shorter than a full Installment Payment Period, such installment shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed per 30-day month. Furthermore, if any date on which an installment is payable
is not a Business Day, then payment of the installment on such date will be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day, and without any interest or other payment in respect of any such delay. However, if such Business Day is in the next
succeeding calendar year, then such installment payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day, in each case with the same force and effect as if made on the scheduled Installment Payment Date. 

Installments shall be paid to the person in whose name the Note is registered, with limited exceptions, as of the close of business on
the Business Day immediately preceding the related Installment Payment Date (each, a “Regular Record Date”). If the Notes do not remain in book-entry only form, the Company shall have the right to select Regular Record Dates, which
will be more than 14 days but less than 60 days prior to the relevant Installment Payment Date. Any such installment payment not punctually paid or duly provided for on any Interest Payment Date shall forthwith cease to be payable to the registered
Holders at the close of business on such Regular Record Date and may be paid to the Person in whose name this Note (or one or more successor Notes) is registered at the close of business on a special record date to be fixed by the Trustee for the
payment of such defaulted installment, and notice whereof shall be given to the 

  
 1 

 
registered Holders of the Notes not less than 10 days prior to such special record date, or may be paid at any time in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any
securities exchange on which the Notes may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, all as more fully provided in the Indenture. Installments shall be payable at the office or agency of the Company maintained for that
purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York; provided, however, that payment of installments may be made at the option of the Company by check mailed to the registered Holder at such address as shall appear in the
Security Register or by wire transfer to an account appropriately designated by the Holder entitled to payment. 
 This Note
shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture hereinafter referred to or be valid or obligatory for any purpose until the Certificate of Authentication shall have been signed by or on behalf of the Trustee. 

The provisions of this Note are continued on the reverse side hereof and such continued provisions shall for all purposes have the same
effect as though fully set forth at this place. 
 In the case of any conflict between this Note and the Indenture, the
provisions of the Indenture shall control.

upon compliance by the Company with certain conditions set forth therein, which provisions apply to the Notes. 
 If an Event of Default with respect to the Notes shall occur and be continuing, then either the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Notes of this series then outstanding
may declare the principal of all the Notes then outstanding, and all interest accrued thereon, including any compound interest, and any other amounts payable under the Indenture, to be due and payable immediately, in the manner, subject to the
conditions and with the effect provided in the Indenture. 
 The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided,
the Company and the Trustee, with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding, to execute supplemental indentures for certain purposes as described therein. 

No provision of this Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional,
to pay installments on this Note at the time, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein and in the Indenture prescribed, subject to the Company’s right to defer installment payments as described therein. 

As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Note shall be registered on the

 3.2. Administration. (a) The Plan shall be administered by the Committee. The Committee shall

whom Incentive Awards may from time to time be granted hereunder; (ii) determine the terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan, of each Incentive Award, including the length of the Performance Period;

payment; (v) in connection with the determination of the amount of each Award, determine whether and to what extent the Incentive Award shall be reduced based on such factors as the Committee deems appropriate in its discretion;
(vi) determine whether payment of Awards may be deferred by Participants; (vii) interpret and administer the Plan and any instrument or agreement entered into in connection 

  
 - 2 -

 
with the Plan; (viii) correct any defect, supply any omission or reconcile any inconsistency in the Plan or any Incentive Award in the manner and to the extent that the Committee shall deem
desirable to carry it into effect; (ix) establish such rules and regulations and appoint such agents as it shall deem appropriate for the proper administration of the Plan; and (x) make any other determination and take any other action
that the Committee deems necessary or desirable for administration of the Plan. 
 (b) Decisions of the Committee shall be
final, conclusive and binding on all persons or entities, including the Company, any Subsidiary, any Participant and any person claiming any benefit or right under an Incentive Award or under the Plan. 

(c) To the extent not inconsistent with applicable law or the rules and regulations of the New York Stock Exchange (or such other
principal securities market on which the Company’s securities are listed or qualified for trading), including the applicable provisions of Section 162(m) of the Code, the Committee may delegate to one or more officers of the Company or a
committee of officers the authority to take actions on its behalf pursuant to the Plan. 
  

	4.	INCENTIVE AWARDS 

 4.1.
Performance Period; Participants. Not later than 90 days after the commencement of each fiscal year of the Company, the Committee shall, in writing (i) designate one or more Performance Periods for such fiscal year,
provided that any Performance Period of less than one year shall be designated no later than the date on which 25% of such Performance Period has lapsed, (ii) designate the Participants for such Performance Period(s), (iii) specify
any adjustments to Core Pre-Tax Income for the Performance Period and (iv) specify any adjustments to the definitions of Cause and Disability. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a person becomes eligible to participate in the Plan after the
Committee has made its initial designation of participants, such individual may become Participant if so designated in writing by the Committee. 
 4.2. Certification. Promptly after the date on which the necessary financial or other information for each Performance Period becomes available, the Committee shall certify, in writing, the
amount of the Incentive Award for each Participant for such Performance Period and, by operation of the Plan, such certification will necessarily include a certification that the performance goals and other material terms relating to the Incentive
Award were in fact satisfied. 
 4.3. Payment of Incentive Awards. The amount of the Incentive Award actually paid
to a Participant shall be determined by the Committee in its sole discretion based on such factors as it deems appropriate, including the Participant’s achievement of the performance measures enumerated in Section 9(b) of the Incentive
Compensation Plan, provided that the actual Award shall not exceed the Incentive Award with respect to such Participant. The Award amount determined by the Committee for a Performance Period shall be paid in cash or, to the extent provided in
such plan, share-based awards under a shareholder-approved stock plan of the Company. Payment to each Participant shall be made no later than the fifteenth day of the third month following the end of the fiscal year of the Company in which the
applicable Performance Period ends, unless payment is deferred pursuant to a plan or arrangement satisfying the requirements of Section 409A of the Code. 

  
 - 3 -

 4.4. Changes in Employment. If a person becomes a Participant during a
Performance Period as specified in Section 4.1, or if a Participant incurs a Termination of Service by reason of death, Disability or Retirement, or if the Participant incurs a Termination of Service by the Company without Cause or otherwise in
a Qualifying Termination, during a Performance Period, the Incentive Award payable to such a Participant may, in the discretion of the Committee, be proportionately reduced based on the period of actual employment during the applicable Performance
Period. For the avoidance of doubt, if a Participant’s Termination of Service is not described in the foregoing sentence, all unpaid Incentive Awards shall be forfeited upon his or her Termination of Service. 

 

	5.	MISCELLANEOUS 

 5.1.
Amendment and Termination of the Plan. The Board may, from time to time, alter, amend, suspend or terminate the Plan as it shall deem advisable, subject to any requirement for shareholder approval imposed by applicable law, including
Section 162(m) of the Code, or by the New York Stock Exchange (or such other principal securities market on which the Company’s securities are listed or qualified for trading). No amendments to, or termination of, the Plan shall in any way
impair the rights of a Participant under any Incentive Award previously granted without such Participant’s consent. 

5.2. Section 162(m) of the Code. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, the provisions of this Plan shall be
administered and interpreted in accordance with Section 162(m) of the Code to ensure the deductibility by the Company of the payment of Incentive Awards. 
 5.3. Restrictions on Transfer. No Incentive Award under the Plan shall be assignable or transferable by the Participant thereof, except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution,
unless the Committee shall elect to permit such an assignment or transfer in its sole discretion. 
 5.4. Tax
Withholding. The Company or a Subsidiary shall have the right to make all payments or distributions pursuant to the Plan to a Participant, net of any applicable federal, state and local taxes required to be paid or withheld. The Company or a
Subsidiary shall have the right to withhold from wages, Awards or other amounts otherwise payable to such Participant such withholding taxes as may be required by law, or to otherwise require the Participant to pay such withholding taxes. If the
Participant shall fail to make such tax payments as are required, the Company or a Subsidiary shall, to the extent permitted by law, have the right to deduct any such taxes from any payment of any kind otherwise due to such Participant or to take
such other action as may be necessary to satisfy such withholding obligations. 
 5.5. Right of Discharge Reserved;
Claims to Incentive Awards. Nothing in this Plan shall provide any Participant a right to receive any Incentive Award or payment under the Plan with respect to a Performance Period. Nothing in the Plan nor the grant of an Incentive Award
hereunder shall confer upon any Participant the right to continue in the employment of the Company or a Subsidiary or affect any right that the Company or a Subsidiary may have to terminate the employment of (or to demote or to exclude from future
Incentive Awards under the Plan) any such Participant at any time for any reason. Except as specifically provided by the Committee, the Company shall not be liable for the loss of existing or potential profit from an Incentive Award granted in the
event of the termination of employment of any Participant. No 

  
 - 4 -

 
Participant shall have any claim to be granted any Incentive Award under the Plan, and there is no obligation for uniformity of treatment of Participants under the Plan. 

5.6. Nature of Payments. All Incentive Awards made pursuant to the Plan are in consideration of services performed or to be
performed for the Company or a Subsidiary, division or business unit of the Company. Any income or gain realized pursuant to Incentive Awards under the Plan constitute a special incentive payment to the Participant and shall not be taken into
account, to the extent permissible under applicable law, as compensation for purposes of any of the employee benefit plans of the Company or a Subsidiary except as may be determined by the Committee or by the Board or board of directors of the
applicable Subsidiary. 
 5.7. Other Plans. Nothing contained in the Plan shall prevent the Board from adopting
other or additional compensation arrangements, subject to shareholder approval if such approval is required; and such arrangements may be either generally applicable or applicable only in specific cases. 

5.8. Severability. If any provision of the Plan shall be held unlawful or otherwise invalid or unenforceable in whole or in
part by a court of competent jurisdiction, such provision shall (a) be deemed limited to the extent that such court of competent jurisdiction deems it lawful, valid and/or enforceable and as so limited shall remain in full force and effect, and
(b) not affect any other provision of the Plan or part thereof, each of which shall remain in full force and effect. If the making of any payment or the provision of any other benefit required under the Plan shall be held unlawful or otherwise
invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, such unlawfulness, invalidity or unenforceability shall not prevent any other payment or benefit from being made or provided under the Plan, and if the making of any payment in full or
the provision of any other benefit required under the Plan in full would be unlawful or otherwise invalid or unenforceable, then such unlawfulness, invalidity or unenforceability shall not prevent such payment or benefit from being made or provided
in part, to the extent that it would not be unlawful, invalid or unenforceable, and the maximum payment or benefit that would not be unlawful, invalid or unenforceable shall be made or provided under the Plan. 

5.9. Construction. As used in the Plan, the words “include” and “including,” and
variations thereof, shall not be deemed to be terms of limitation, but rather shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.” 
 5.10. Unfunded Status of the Plan. The Plan is intended to constitute an “unfunded” plan for incentive compensation. With respect to any payments not yet made to a Participant by
the Company, nothing contained herein shall give any such Participant any rights that are greater than those of a general creditor of the Company. 
 5.11. Regulatory Compliance. Incentive Awards hereunder may be subject to the requirements of any federal law or regulation that may govern executive compensation and apply to the Company.
Notwithstanding any provision of Section 5.1 to the contrary, the Company shall have the right to change this Plan or any Incentive Award, or interpret their respective provisions, so as to comply with such requirements. 

5.12. Clawback. Notwithstanding any provision of this Plan to the contrary, any Award, whether paid in cash or share-based
awards, is subject to being called for repayment to

govern executive compensation and apply to the Company. 
 5.13. Governing Law. The Plan and all determinations
made and actions taken thereunder, to the extent not otherwise governed by the Code or the laws of the United States, shall be governed by the laws of the State of Michigan, without reference to principles of conflict of laws that might result in
the application of the laws of another jurisdiction, and shall be construed accordingly. 
 5.14. Effective Date of
Plan. The Plan shall be effective on the date of the approval of the Plan by the holders of the then outstanding securities of the Company entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, which approval shall be obtained prior to the
payment of any Incentive Award under the Plan. The Plan shall be null and void and of no effect if the foregoing condition is not fulfilled. 
 5.15. Captions. The captions in the Plan are for convenience of reference only, and are not intended to narrow, limit or affect the substance or interpretation of the provisions contained
herein.
