Re: Call Option Transaction

     The purpose of this letter agreement (this “Confirmation”) is to confirm the terms and
conditions of the call option transaction entered into between JPMorgan Chase Bank, National
Association, London Branch (“Dealer”) and Wyndham Worldwide Corporation (“Counterparty”) as of the
Trade Date specified below (the “Transaction”). This letter agreement constitutes a “Confirmation”
as referred to in the Agreement specified below. This Confirmation shall replace any previous
agreements and serve as the final documentation for this Transaction.

     The definitions and provisions contained in the 2002 ISDA Equity Derivatives Definitions (the
“Equity Definitions”), as published by the International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc.
(“ISDA”) are incorporated into this Confirmation. In the event of any inconsistency between the
Equity Definitions and this Confirmation, this Confirmation shall govern. Certain defined terms
used herein have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture dated as of November 20, 2008 (the
“Base Indenture”), as supplemented by a Second Supplemental Indenture thereto (the “Supplemental
Indenture”) to be dated May 19, 2009, between Counterparty and U.S. Bank National Association, as
trustee (as so supplemented, the “Indenture”) relating to the USD 200,000,000 principal amount of
Convertible Senior Notes due 2012, (the “Convertible Notes” and each USD 1,000 principal amount of
Convertible Notes, a “Convertible Note”) issued by Counterparty. In the event of any inconsistency
between the terms defined in the Indenture and this Confirmation, this Confirmation shall govern.
The parties acknowledge that this Confirmation is entered into on the date hereof with the
understanding that (i) definitions set forth in the Indenture that are also defined herein by
reference to the Indenture and (ii) sections of the Indenture that are referred to herein will
conform to the descriptions thereof in the Prospectus dated November 25, 2008, as supplemented by
the Prospectus Supplement dated May 13, 2009 (as so supplemented, the “Prospectus”) relating to the
Convertible Notes. If any such definitions in the Indenture or any such sections of the Indenture
differ from the descriptions thereof in the Prospectus, the descriptions thereof in the Prospectus
will govern for purposes of this Confirmation. The parties further acknowledge that the
Supplemental Indenture section numbers used herein are based on the draft of the Supplemental
Indenture last reviewed by Dealer as of the date of this Confirmation, and if any such section
numbers are changed in the Supplemental Indenture as executed, the parties will amend this
Confirmation in good faith to preserve the intent of the parties. For the avoidance of doubt,
references to the Indenture herein are references to the Indenture as in effect on the date of its
execution and if the Indenture is amended following its execution, any such amendment will be
disregarded for purposes of this Confirmation unless the parties agree otherwise in writing.

     Each party is hereby advised, and each such party acknowledges, that the other party has
engaged in, or refrained from engaging in, substantial financial transactions and has taken other
material actions in

	 	(a)	 	Counterparty has all necessary corporate power and authority to execute,
deliver and perform its obligations in respect of this Transaction; such execution,
delivery and performance have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action
on Counterparty’s part; and this Confirmation has been duly and validly executed and
delivered by Counterparty and constitutes its valid and binding obligation,
enforceable against Counterparty in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable
bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium and similar
laws affecting creditors’ rights and remedies generally, and subject, as to
enforceability, to general principles of equity, including principles of commercial
reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing (regardless of whether enforcement is
sought in a proceeding at law or in equity) and except that rights to indemnification
and contribution hereunder may be limited by federal or state securities laws or
public policy relating thereto.
	 
	 	(b)	 	Neither the execution and delivery of this Confirmation nor the incurrence or
performance of obligations of Counterparty hereunder will conflict with or result in a
breach of the certificate of incorporation or by-laws (or any equivalent documents) of
Counterparty, or any applicable law or regulation, or any order, writ, injunction or
decree of any court or governmental authority or agency, or any agreement or
instrument to which Counterparty or any of its subsidiaries is a party or by which
Counterparty or any of its subsidiaries is bound or to which Counterparty or any of
its subsidiaries is subject, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation
of any lien under, any such agreement or instrument.
	 
	 	(c)	 	No consent, approval, authorization, or order of, or filing with, any
governmental agency or body or any court is required in connection with the execution,
delivery or performance by Counterparty of this Confirmation, except such as have been
obtained or made and such as may be required under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the “Securities Act”) or state securities laws.
	 
	 	(d)	 	Counterparty is not and will not be required to register as an “investment
company” as such term is defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.
	 
	 	(e)	 	It is an “eligible contract participant” (as such term is defined in Section
1a(12) of the Commodity Exchange Act, as amended (the “CEA”)) because one or more of
the following is true:

9

 

	 	 	 	Counterparty is a corporation, partnership, proprietorship, organization, trust or
other entity and:

	 	(A)	 	Counterparty has total assets in excess of USD 10,000,000;
	 
	 	(B)	 	the obligations of Counterparty hereunder are guaranteed, or
otherwise supported by a letter of credit or keepwell, support or other
agreement, by an entity of the type described in Section 1a(12)(A)(i) through
(iv), 1a(12)(A)(v)(I), 1a(12)(A)(vii) or 1a(12)(C) of the CEA; or
	 
	 	(C)	 	Counterparty has a net worth in excess of USD 1,000,000 and
has entered into this Agreement in connection with the conduct of
Counterparty’s business or to manage the risk associated with an asset or
liability owned or incurred or reasonably likely to be owned or incurred by
Counterparty in the conduct of Counterparty’s business.

	 	(f)	 	Counterparty is not, on the date hereof, in possession of any material
non-public information with respect to Counterparty.
	 
	 	(g)	 	No state or local (including, for the avoidance of doubt, jurisdictions
outside the United States) law, rule, regulation or regulatory order applicable to the
Shares or Counterparty (including without limitation any such law, regulation or order
regulating the gaming business or the consumer financing business, but excluding
Federal securities laws) (“Applicable State Share Ownership Law”) would give rise to
any reporting or registration obligations or other requirements on Dealer or its
affiliates (including obtaining prior approval from any person or entity), or would
result in an adverse effect on Dealer or its affiliates, (each, an “Ownership
Obligation”), as a consequence of Dealer and its affiliates collectively holding the
power to vote Shares in excess of any threshold amount that is less than 10% of the
number of Shares outstanding; and no Applicable State Share Ownership Law imposes any
Ownership Obligation by any method other than counting the number of Shares which a
person holds the power to vote.
	 
	 	(h)	 	Counterparty does not hold any license to operate a gaming business in any
jurisdiction (including without limitation any jurisdiction outside the United States)
other than Puerto Rico, and Counterparty is not subject to regulation under any law,
rule, regulation or regulatory order relating to the gaming business of any
jurisdiction (including without limitation jurisdictions outside the United States)
other than under the gaming regulations issued by the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico
Tourism Company.

9. Other Provisions:

	 	(a)	 	Opinions. Counterparty shall deliver to Dealer an opinion of
counsel, dated as of the Trade Date, with respect to the matters set forth in Sections
8(a) through (c) of this Confirmation.
	 
	 	(b)	 	Repurchase Notices. Counterparty shall, on any day on which
Counterparty effects any repurchase of Shares, promptly give Dealer a written notice
of such repurchase (a “Repurchase Notice”) on such day if following such repurchase,
the number of outstanding Shares as determined on such day is (i) less than 155
million (in the case of the first such notice) or (ii) thereafter more than 19 million
less than the number of Shares included in the immediately preceding Repurchase
Notice. Counterparty agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Dealer and its affiliates
and their respective officers, directors, employees, affiliates, advisors, agents and
controlling persons (each, an “Indemnified Person”) from and against any and all
losses (including losses relating to Dealer’s hedging activities as a consequence of
becoming, or of the risk of becoming, a Section 16 “insider”, including without
limitation, any forbearance from hedging activities or cessation of hedging activities
and any losses in connection therewith with

10

 

	 	 	 	respect to this Transaction), claims, damages, judgments, liabilities and expenses
(including reasonable attorney’s fees), joint or several, to which an Indemnified
Person may become subject, as a result of Counterparty’s failure to provide Dealer
with a Repurchase Notice on the day and in the manner specified in this paragraph,
and to reimburse, within 30 days, upon written request, each of such Indemnified
Persons for any reasonable legal or other expenses incurred in connection with
investigating, preparing for, providing testimony or other evidence in connection
with or defending any of the foregoing. If any suit, action, proceeding (including
any governmental or regulatory investigation), claim or demand shall be brought or
asserted against the Indemnified Person as a result of Counterparty’s failure to
provide Dealer with a Repurchase Notice in accordance with this paragraph, such
Indemnified Person shall promptly notify Counterparty in writing, and Counterparty,
upon request of the Indemnified Person, shall retain counsel reasonably
satisfactory to the Indemnified Person to represent the Indemnified Person and any
others Counterparty may designate in such proceeding and shall pay the fees and
expenses of such counsel related to such proceeding. Counterparty shall not be
liable for any settlement of any proceeding contemplated by this paragraph that is
effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there
be a final judgment for the plaintiff, Counterparty agrees to indemnify any
Indemnified Person from and against any loss or liability by reason of such
settlement or judgment. Counterparty shall not, without the prior written consent
of the Indemnified Person, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened
proceeding contemplated by this paragraph that is in respect of which any
Indemnified Person is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been
sought hereunder by such Indemnified Person, unless such settlement includes an
unconditional release of such Indemnified Person from all liability on claims that
are the subject matter of such proceeding on terms reasonably satisfactory to such
Indemnified Person. If the indemnification provided for in this paragraph is
unavailable to an Indemnified Person or insufficient in respect of any losses,
claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein, then Counterparty hereunder, in
lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Person thereunder, shall contribute to the
amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Person as a result of such losses,
claims, damages or liabilities. The remedies provided for in this paragraph (b)
are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies that may otherwise be
available to any Indemnified Party at law or in equity. The indemnity and
contribution agreements contained in this paragraph shall remain operative and in
full force and effect regardless of the termination of this Transaction.
	 
	 	(c)	 	Regulation M; Counterparty Purchases. (i) Counterparty is not on the
Trade Date engaged in a distribution, as such term is used in Regulation M under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), of any securities of
Counterparty, other than the distribution of the Convertible Notes. Counterparty
shall not, until the second Scheduled Trading Day immediately following the Effective
Date, engage in any such distribution.
	 
	 	 	 	 (ii) On the Trade Date, neither Counterparty nor any “affiliate” or “affiliated
purchaser” (each as defined in Rule 10b-18 of the Exchange Act (“Rule 10b-18”))
shall directly or indirectly (including, without limitation, by means of any
cash-settled or other derivative instrument other than the Transaction or any other
substantially similar transactions that are entered into by Counterparty
contemporaneously with the Transaction) purchase, offer to purchase, place any bid
or limit order that would effect a purchase of, or commence any tender offer
relating to, any Shares (or an equivalent interest, including a unit of beneficial
interest in a trust or limited partnership or a depository share) or any security
convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for Shares.
	 
	 	(d)	 	No Manipulation. Counterparty is not entering into this Transaction
to create actual or apparent trading activity in the Shares (or any security
convertible into or exchangeable for the Shares) or to raise or depress or otherwise
manipulate the price of the Shares (or

11

 

	 	 	 	any security convertible into or exchangeable for the Shares) or otherwise in
violation of the Exchange Act.
	 
	 	(e)	 	Transfer or Assignment. (i) Counterparty shall have the right to
transfer or assign its rights and obligations hereunder with respect to all, but not
less than all, of the Options hereunder (such Options, the “Transfer Options”);
provided that such transfer or assignment shall be subject to reasonable conditions
that Dealer may impose, including but not limited, to the following conditions:

(A) With respect to any Transfer Options, Counterparty shall not be released
from its notice and indemnification obligations pursuant to Section 9(b) or any
obligations under Section 9(m) or 9(q) of this Confirmation;

(B) Any Transfer Options shall only be transferred or assigned to a third party
that is a United States person (as defined in the Internal Revenue Code of
1986, as amended);

(C) Such transfer or assignment shall be effected on terms, including any
reasonable undertakings by such third party (including, but not limited to, an
undertaking with respect to compliance with applicable securities laws in a
manner that, in the reasonable judgment of Dealer, will not expose Dealer to
material risks under applicable securities laws) and execution of any
documentation and delivery of legal opinions with respect to securities laws
and other matters by such third party and Counterparty, as are requested and
reasonably satisfactory to Dealer;

(D) Dealer will not, as a result of such transfer and assignment, be required
to pay the transferee on any payment date an amount under Section 2(d)(i)(4) of
the Agreement greater than an amount that Dealer would have been required to
pay to Counterparty in the absence of such transfer and assignment;

(E) An Event of Default, Potential Event of Default or Termination Event will
not occur as a result of such transfer and assignment;

(F) Without limiting the generality of clause (B), Counterparty shall cause the
transferee to make such Payee Tax Representations and to provide such tax
documentation as may be reasonably requested by Dealer to permit Dealer to
determine that results described in clauses (D) and (E) will not occur upon or
after such transfer and assignment; and

(G) Counterparty shall be responsible for all reasonable costs and expenses,
including reasonable counsel fees, incurred by Dealer in connection with such
transfer or assignment.

	 	 	 	 (ii) If (1) the Section 16 Percentage exceeds 8.0%, (2) the Option Equity
Percentage exceeds 14.5% or (3) the Share Amount exceeds the Applicable Limit,
Dealer may, without Counterparty’s consent, transfer or assign all or any part of
its rights or obligations under the Transaction to any Qualified Third Party in
order to reduce (1) the Section 16 Percentage to equal to or less than 8.0% (but
not less than 7%), (2) the Option Equity Percentage to equal to or less than 14.5%
(but not less than 13.5%) and (3) the Share Amount to equal to or less than the
Applicable Limit (but not less than the Applicable Limit minus 1% of the number of
Shares then outstanding). “Qualified Third Party” means any third party with a
rating for its long term, unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness equal to or
better than the lesser of (1) the credit rating of Dealer at the time of the
transfer and (2) A- by Standard and Poor’s Rating Group, Inc. or its successor
(“S&P”), or A3 by Moody’s Investor Service, Inc. (“Moody’s”) or, if either S&P or
Moody’s ceases to rate such debt, at least an equivalent rating or better by a
substitute agency rating mutually agreed by Counterparty and Dealer. If after
Dealer’s commercially reasonable efforts, Dealer is unable to effect such a
transfer or assignment on pricing terms reasonably acceptable to Dealer and within
a time period reasonably acceptable to Dealer of a sufficient number of Options to
reduce (1) the Section 16

12

 

	 	 	 	Percentage to 8.0% or less, (2) the Option Equity Percentage to 14.5% or less and
(3) the Share Amount to the Applicable Limit or less, Dealer may designate any
Exchange Business Day as an Early Termination Date with respect to a portion (the
“Terminated Portion”) of this Transaction, such that (1) the Section 16 Percentage
following such partial termination will be equal to or less than 8.0% (but not less
than 7%), (2) the Option Equity Percentage following such partial termination will
be equal to or less than 14.5% (but not less than 13.5%) and (3) the Share Amount
following such partial termination will be equal to or less than the Applicable
Limit (but not less than the Applicable Limit minus 1% of Shares then outstanding).
In the event that Dealer so designates an Early Termination Date with respect to a
portion of this Transaction, a payment shall be made pursuant to Section 6 of the
Agreement as if (1) an Early Termination Date had been designated in respect of a
Transaction having terms identical to this Transaction and a Number of Options
equal to the Terminated Portion, (2) Counterparty shall be the sole Affected Party
with respect to such partial termination and (3) such Transaction shall be the only
Terminated Transaction. The “Section 16 Percentage” as of any day is the fraction,
expressed as a percentage, (A) the numerator of which is the number of Shares that
Dealer, each person subject to aggregation of Shares with Dealer under Section 13
or Section 16 of the Exchange Act and rules promulgated thereunder and any “group,”
as such term is defined in such Section 13 and Rules, of which Dealer or any such
person is a member or may be deemed a member (collectively, the “Dealer Group”)
directly or indirectly beneficially own (as defined under Section 13 of the
Exchange Act and rules promulgated thereunder) and (B) the denominator of which is
the number of Shares outstanding. The “Option Equity Percentage” as of any day is
the fraction, expressed as a percentage, (A) the numerator of which is the sum of
(x) the product of the Number of Options and the Option Entitlement and (y) the
aggregate number of Shares underlying any other call option transaction sold by
Dealer to Counterparty, and (B) the denominator of which is the number of Shares
outstanding. The “Share Amount” as of any day is the number of Shares that Dealer,
Dealer Group or any person whose ownership position would be aggregated with that
of Dealer or Dealer Group (Dealer, Dealer Group or any such person, a “Dealer
Person”) under Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL
Takeover Statute”) or under any other law, rule, regulation or regulatory order of
any jurisdiction (including without limitation jurisdictions outside the United
States) that for any reason becomes applicable to ownership of Shares after the
Trade Date (“Applicable Laws”), owns, beneficially owns, constructively owns,
controls, holds the power to vote or otherwise meets a relevant definition of
ownership of under the Applicable Laws, as determined by Dealer in its reasonable
discretion. The “Applicable Limit” means (x) the minimum number of Shares that
would give rise to reporting or registration obligations or other requirements
(including obtaining prior approval from any person or entity) of a Dealer Person,
or would result in an adverse effect on a Dealer Person, under the Applicable Laws,
as determined by Dealer in its reasonable discretion, minus (y) 2% of the number of
Shares outstanding.
	 
	 	 	 	 (iii) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Confirmation to the contrary
requiring or allowing Dealer to purchase, sell, receive or deliver any Shares or
other securities, or make or receive any payment in cash, to or from Counterparty,
Dealer may designate any of its affiliates to purchase, sell, receive or deliver
such Shares or other securities, or to make or receive any payment in cash, and
otherwise to perform Dealer’s obligations in respect of this Transaction and any
such designee may assume such obligations. Dealer shall be discharged of its
obligations to Counterparty to the extent of any such performance.
	 
	 	(f)	 	Role of Agent. Each party agrees and acknowledges that (i) J.P.
Morgan Securities Inc., an affiliate of Dealer (“JPMSI”), has acted solely as agent
and not as principal with respect to this Transaction and (ii) JPMSI has no obligation
or liability, by way of guaranty, endorsement or otherwise, in any manner in respect
of this Transaction (including, if applicable, in respect of the settlement thereof).
Each party agrees it will

13

 

	 	 	 	look solely to the other party (or any guarantor in respect thereof) for
performance of such other party’s obligations under this Transaction.
	 
	 	(g)	 	Dividends. If at any time during the period from and including the
Effective Date, to but excluding the Expiration Date, (i) an ex-dividend date for a
regular quarterly cash dividend occurs with respect to the Shares (an “Ex-Dividend
Date”), and that dividend is less than the Regular Dividend on a per Share basis or
(ii) if no Ex-Dividend date for a regular quarterly cash dividend occurs with respect
to the Shares in any quarterly dividend period of Counterparty, then the Calculation
Agent will make a corresponding adjustment to any one or more of the Strike Price,
Number of Options, Option Entitlement and/or any other variable relevant to the
exercise, settlement or payment for the Transaction to preserve the fair value of the
Options to Dealer after taking into account such dividend or lack thereof. “Regular
Dividend” shall mean USD 0.04 per Share per quarter. Upon any adjustment to the
Initial Dividend Threshold (as defined in the Supplemental Indenture) for the
Convertible Notes pursuant to Section 4.08(b) of the Supplemental Indenture, the
Calculation Agent will make a corresponding adjustment to the Regular Dividend for the
Transaction.
	 
	 	(h)	 	Additional Termination Events.
	 
	 	 	 	 (i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Confirmation if an event of
default with respect to Counterparty shall occur under the terms of the Convertible
Notes as set forth in Section 5.01 of the Supplemental Indenture or Section 7.01 of
the Base Indenture (as modified by Section 5.01 of the Supplemental Indenture),
which event of default results in acceleration of Counterparty’s payment obligation
under the Convertible Notes pursuant to the terms of the Indenture, then (A) an
Additional Termination Event shall be deemed to occur with respect to the
Transaction, (B) Counterparty shall be deemed to be the sole Affected Party and the
Transaction shall be the sole Affected Transaction and (C) Dealer shall be the
party entitled to designate an Early Termination Date pursuant to Section 6(b) of
the Agreement.
	 
	 	 	 	 (ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Confirmation, if any
Convertible Notes cease to be outstanding in accordance with their terms pursuant
to Article 3 of the Supplemental Indenture, then an Additional Termination Event
shall be deemed to occur and an Early Termination Date shall be deemed to have been
designated pursuant to Section 6(b) of the Agreement with respect to a portion of
this Transaction corresponding to such Convertible Notes. In the event that such
an Early Termination is deemed to have been designated with respect to a portion of
this Transaction, a payment shall be made pursuant to Section 6 of the Agreement as
if (A) an Early Termination Date had been designated in respect of a Transaction
having terms identical to this Transaction and a Number of Options equal to the
number of such Convertible Notes, (B) Counterparty shall be the sole Affected Party
with respect to such partial termination and (C) such terminated portion of this
Transaction shall be the only Terminated Transaction.
	 
	 	 	 	 (iii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Confirmation, the giving of
any Notice of Exercise shall constitute an Additional Termination Event hereunder
with respect to the number, if any, of Exercisable Options specified in such Notice
of Exercise as corresponding to a conversion of Convertible Notes pursuant to
Section 4.07 of the Supplemental Indenture. Upon receipt of any such notice,
Dealer shall designate an Exchange Business Day as an Early Termination Date, with
respect to the portion of this Transaction corresponding to the number of such
Exercisable Options so specified. Any payment hereunder with respect to such
termination shall be calculated pursuant to Section 6 of the Agreement; provided
that for the purposes of such calculation, (A) Counterparty shall be the sole
Affected Party with respect to such Additional Termination Event, (B) Dealer shall
be the party entitled to designate an Early Termination Date pursuant to Section
6(b) of the Agreement, and (C) for the avoidance of doubt, in determining the
amount payable pursuant to Section 6 of the Agreement, the Calculation

14

 

	 	 	 	Agent, acting in a commercially reasonable manner, (i) shall take into account the
time value of this Transaction to the Expiration Date and (ii) shall not take into
account any adjustments to the Option Entitlement that result from corresponding
adjustments to the Conversion Rate pursuant to Section 4.07 of the Supplemental
Indenture; provided further that (A) in case of a partial termination, an Early
Termination Date shall be designated in respect of a Transaction having terms
identical to this Transaction and a Number of Options equal to the terminated
portion and such Transaction shall be the only Terminated Transaction; (B) any
amount payable by Dealer to Counterparty shall be satisfied solely by delivery by
Dealer to Counterparty of cash in an amount calculated pursuant to Section 6
determined by the Calculation Agent in a commercially reasonable manner; and (C)
the amount of cash deliverable in respect of such early termination by Dealer to
Counterparty shall not be greater than the product of (x) the Applicable Percentage
and (y) the excess of (a) the Settlement Amount (as defined in the Supplemental
Indenture) with respect to the corresponding Convertible Notes (including the Cash
Make-Whole Premium (as defined in the Supplemental Indenture) resulting from any
adjustment set forth in Section 4.07 of the Supplemental Indenture) over (b) the
aggregate principal amount of the corresponding Convertible Notes, as determined by
the Calculation Agent in a commercially reasonable manner.
	 
	 	(i)	 	Amendments to Equity Definitions. (i) Section 12.6(a)(ii) of the
Equity Definitions is hereby amended by (1) deleting from the fourth line thereof the
word “or” after the word “official” and inserting a comma therefor, and (2) deleting
the semi-colon at the end of subsection (B) thereof and inserting the following words
therefor “or (C) at Dealer’s option, the occurrence of any of the events specified in
Section 5(a)(vii)(1) through (9) of the ISDA Master Agreement with respect to that
Issuer.”
	 
	 	 	 	 (ii) Section 12.9(b)(i) of the Equity Definitions is hereby amended by (1)
replacing “either party may elect” with “Dealer may elect” and (2) replacing
“notice to the other party” with “notice to Counterparty” in the first sentence of
such section.
	 
	 	(j)	 	Setoff. Neither party shall have the right to set off any obligation
that it may have to the other party under this Transaction against any obligation such
other party may have to it, whether arising under the Agreement, this Confirmation or
any other agreement between the parties hereto, by operation of law or otherwise.
	 
	 	(k)	 	Governing Law. New York law (without reference to choice of law
doctrine).
	 
	 	(l)	 	Waiver of Jury Trial. Each party waives, to the fullest extent
permitted by applicable law, any right it may have to a trial by jury in respect of
any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Transaction. Each party (i) certifies
that no representative, agent or attorney of either party has represented, expressly
or otherwise, that such other party would not, in the event of such a suit, action or
proceeding, seek to enforce the foregoing waiver and (ii) acknowledges that it and the
other party have been induced to enter into this Transaction, as applicable, by, among
other things, the mutual waivers and certifications provided herein.
	 
	 	(m)	 	Registration. Counterparty hereby agrees that if, in the good faith
reasonable judgment of Dealer, the Shares (“Hedge Shares”) acquired by Dealer for the
purpose of hedging its obligations pursuant to this Transaction cannot be sold in the
public market by Dealer without registration under the Securities Act, Counterparty
shall, at its election, either (i) in order to allow Dealer to sell the Hedge Shares
in a registered offering, make available to Dealer an effective registration statement
under the Securities Act and enter into an agreement, in form and substance
satisfactory to Dealer, substantially in the form of an underwriting agreement for a
registered secondary offering; provided, however, that if Dealer, in its sole
reasonable discretion, is not satisfied with access to due diligence materials, the
results of its due diligence investigation, or the procedures and documentation for
the registered offering referred to above, then clause (ii) or clause (iii)

15

 

	 	 	 	 of this paragraph shall apply at the election of Counterparty, (ii) in order to
allow Dealer to sell the Hedge Shares in a private placement, enter into a private
placement agreement substantially similar to private placement purchase agreements
customary for private placements of equity securities, in form and substance
satisfactory to Dealer (in which case, the Calculation Agent shall make any
adjustments to the terms of this Transaction that are necessary, in its reasonable
judgment, to compensate Dealer for any discount from the public market price of the
Shares incurred on the sale of Hedge Shares in a private placement), or (iii)
purchase the Hedge Shares from Dealer at the Reference Price on such Exchange
Business Days, and in the amounts, requested by Dealer.
	 
	 	(n)	 	Tax Disclosure. Effective from the date of commencement of
discussions concerning the Transaction, Counterparty and each of its employees,
representatives, or other agents may disclose to any and all persons, without
limitation of any kind, the tax treatment and tax structure of the Transaction and all
materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that are provided to
Counterparty relating to such tax treatment and tax structure.
	 
	 	(o)	 	Right to Extend.  Dealer may postpone, in whole or in part, any
Settlement Date or any other date of valuation or payment by Dealer or add additional
Settlement Dates or any other date of valuation or payment, with respect to some or
all of the Options hereunder, if Dealer reasonably determines, in its discretion, that
such extension is reasonably necessary or appropriate to enable Dealer to effect
purchases or sales of Shares in connection with its hedging or hedge unwind activity
hereunder in a manner that would, if Dealer were Counterparty or an agent of
Counterparty, be in compliance with applicable legal, regulatory or self-regulatory
requirements, or with related policies and procedures applicable to Dealer.
	 
	 	(p)	 	Securities Contract; Swap Agreement. The parties hereto intend for:
(a) the Transaction to be a “securities contract” and a “swap agreement” as defined in
the Bankruptcy Code (Title 11 of the United States Code) (the “Bankruptcy Code”), and
the parties hereto to be entitled to the protections afforded by, among other
Sections, Sections 362(b)(6), 362(b)(17), 546(e), 546(g), 555 and 560 of the
Bankruptcy Code; (b) a party’s right to liquidate the Transaction and to exercise any
other remedies upon the occurrence of any Event of Default under the Agreement with
respect to the other party to constitute a “contractual right” as described in the
Bankruptcy Code; and (c) each payment and delivery of cash or other property hereunder
to constitute a “margin payment” or “settlement payment” and a “transfer” as defined
in the Bankruptcy Code.
	 
	 	(q)	 	Additional Provisions. As promptly as reasonably practicable
following the occurrence of any event that results in or could reasonably be expected
to result in any adjustment or adjustments pursuant to the Indenture, Counterparty
shall notify the Calculation Agent of such event; and once the adjustment or
adjustments to be made to the terms of the Indenture in respect of such event have
been determined, Counterparty shall immediately notify the Calculation Agent in
writing of the details of such adjustment or adjustments. Counterparty covenants and
agrees that, as promptly as practicable following the public announcement of any
consolidation, merger and binding share exchange to which Counterparty is a party, or
any sale of all or substantially all of Counterparty’s assets, in each case pursuant
to which the Shares will be converted into cash, securities or other property,
Counterparty shall notify Dealer in writing of the types and amounts of consideration
that holders of Shares have elected to receive upon consummation of such transaction
or event (the date of such notification, the “Consideration Notification Date”);
provided that in no event shall the Consideration Notification Date be later than the
date on which such transaction or event is consummated.
	 
	 	(r)	 	Early Unwind. In the event the sale by Counterparty of the
Convertible Notes is not consummated with the Underwriters pursuant to the
Underwriting Agreement for any reason by the close of business in New York on May 19,
2009 (or such later date as

16

 

	 	 	 	agreed upon by the parties, which in no event shall be later than May 22, 2009)
(May 19, 2009 or such later date being the “Closing Date”), or, with respect to any
Additional Convertible Notes, on the settlement date for the Option Securities
pursuant to Section 3 of the Underwriting Agreement (the “Additional Closing Date,”
and the Closing Date or the Additional Closing Date, as applicable, the “Early
Unwind Date”), the Transaction (or, with respect to any Additional Convertible
Notes, the Additional Options) shall automatically terminate (the “Early Unwind”),
on the Early Unwind Date and (i) the Transaction (or, with respect to any
Additional Convertible Notes, the Additional Options) and all of the respective
rights and obligations of Dealer and Counterparty under the Transaction or the
Additional Options, as applicable, shall be cancelled and terminated and (ii)
Counterparty shall deliver to Dealer, other than in cases involving a breach of the
Underwriting Agreement by the Underwriters, either an amount in cash equal to the
aggregate amount of costs and expenses relating to the unwinding of Dealer’s
hedging activities in respect of the Transaction or the Additional Options, as
applicable, (including market losses incurred in reselling any Shares purchased by
