 ARTICLE 2 

ISSUE, DESCRIPTION, EXECUTION, DEPOSIT, REGISTRATION
AND EXCHANGE OF RECEIPTS 
 Section 2.01. Appointment of
Depositary. The Corporation hereby appoints the Depositary, and the Depositary hereby accepts such appointment, as depositary for the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.

 Section 2.02. Rights, Preferences, Privileges and Voting Powers. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, each Record
Holder of a Receipt is entitled, proportionately, to all the rights, preferences, privileges and voting powers of the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock represented by the Depositary Shares evidenced by such Receipt (including the conversion,
redemption, dividend, voting, and liquidation rights contained in the Articles of Incorporation) and the same proportionate interest in any and all other property received by the Depositary in respect of such Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock
and held under this Agreement. 
 Section 2.03. Book-Entry System; Form and Transfer of Receipts. The
Corporation and the Depositary shall make application to The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) for acceptance of all of the Receipts for its book-entry settlement system. The Corporation hereby appoints the Depositary acting through
any authorized officer thereof as its attorney-in-fact, with full power to delegate, for purposes of executing any agreements, certifications or other instruments or documents necessary or desirable in order to effect the acceptance of such Receipts
for DTC eligibility. So long as the Receipts are eligible for book-entry settlement with DTC, unless otherwise required by law, all Depositary Shares with book-entry settlement through DTC shall be represented by a single receipt or receipts (the
“DTC Receipt”), which shall be deposited with DTC (or its designee) evidencing all such Depositary Shares and registered in the name of the nominee of DTC (initially Cede & Co.). The Depositary or such other entity as is agreed
to by DTC may hold the DTC Receipt as custodian for DTC. Ownership of beneficial interests in the DTC Receipt shall be shown on, and the transfer of such ownership shall be effected through, records maintained by (a) DTC or its nominee for such DTC
Receipt or (b) institutions that have accounts with DTC. The DTC Receipt shall bear such legend or legends as may be required by DTC in order for it to accept the Depositary Shares for its book-entry settlement system. The aggregate number of
Depositary Shares evidenced by Receipts that may be executed and delivered under this Agreement is initially limited to 17,250,000, except for Receipts executed and delivered in respect of Depositary Shares upon registration or transfer of, or in
exchange for, or in lieu of other Receipts pursuant to Section 2.06, Section 2.07 or Section 4.06. 
 The DTC Receipt shall be exchangeable
for Physical Receipts only if (i) DTC notifies the Corporation at any time that it is unwilling or unable to continue to make its book-entry settlement system available for the Receipts and a successor to DTC is not appointed by the Corporation
within 90 days or (ii) DTC ceases to be registered as a clearing agency under the Exchange Act and a successor to DTC is not appointed by the Corporation within 90 days. The Corporation shall provide written notice to the Depositary upon receipt of
notice of the occurrence of any event described in clause (i) or clause (ii) of the preceding sentence. Until such written notice is received by the Depositary, the Depositary may presume conclusively for

  
 5 

 
all purposes that the events described in clause (i) and clause (ii) of the first sentence of this paragraph have not occurred. If the beneficial owners of interests in Depositary Shares are
entitled to exchange such interests for Physical Receipts as the result of an event described in clause (i) or clause (ii) of the first sentence of this paragraph, then without unnecessary delay, the Depositary shall provide written instructions to
DTC to deliver the DTC Receipt to the Depositary for cancellation, and, without unnecessary delay, the Corporation shall instruct the Depositary to deliver to the beneficial owners of the Depositary Shares previously evidenced by the DTC Receipt
Physical Receipts evidencing such Depositary Shares. 
 Physical Receipts issued in exchange for all or a part of the DTC Receipt pursuant
to this Section 2.03 shall be registered in such names and in such authorized denominations as DTC, pursuant to instructions from its direct or indirect participants or otherwise, shall instruct the Depositary. Upon execution and
authentication, the Depositary shall deliver such Physical Receipts to the Persons or entities in whose names such Physical Receipts are so registered. 

At such time as all interests in a DTC Receipt have been converted, redeemed, canceled, surrendered or transferred, such DTC Receipt shall be,
upon receipt thereof, canceled by the Depositary in accordance with standing procedures and existing instructions between DTC and DTC’s custodian. At any time prior to such cancellation, if any interest in a DTC Receipt is exchanged for
Physical Receipts, converted, redeemed, canceled, surrendered or transferred to a transferee who receives Physical Receipts therefor or any Physical Receipt is exchanged or transferred for part of such DTC Receipt, the number of Depositary Shares
evidenced by such DTC Receipt shall, in accordance with the standing procedures and instructions existing between DTC and DTC’s custodian, be appropriately reduced or increased, as the case may be, and an endorsement shall be made on such DTC
Receipt, by the Depositary or DTC’s custodian, at the direction of the Depositary, to reflect such reduction or increase. 
 Beneficial
owners of Depositary Shares through DTC shall not receive or be entitled to receive Physical Receipts or be entitled to have Depositary Shares registered in their name, except as described in the third immediately preceding paragraph, in which case
the provisions set forth in such paragraph and the second immediately succeeding paragraph regarding the issuance of Physical Receipts shall apply. 

Receipts shall be in denominations of any number of whole Depositary Shares. The Corporation shall deliver to the Depositary from time to time
such quantities of Receipts as the Depositary may request to enable the Depositary to perform its obligations under this Agreement. 
 The
DTC Receipt and Physical Receipts, if any, shall be substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit A annexed to this Agreement and incorporated herein by reference, with appropriate insertions, modifications and omissions, as hereinafter
provided and shall be engraved or otherwise prepared so as to comply with the applicable rules of The New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) or any other securities exchange on which the Depositary Shares are then listed, if
applicable. In the event the DTC Receipt becomes exchangeable for Physical Receipts as provided in this Section 2.03, the Depositary, pending preparation of Physical Receipts and upon the written order of the Corporation, delivered in compliance
with Section 

  
 6 

 
2.04, shall execute and deliver temporary Receipts, which may be printed, lithographed or otherwise substantially of the tenor of the Physical Receipts in lieu of which they are issued and with
such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as the Persons executing such Receipts may determine, as evidenced by their execution of such Receipts. If temporary Receipts are issued, the Corporation and the Depositary
will cause Physical Receipts to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation of Physical Receipts, the temporary Receipts shall be exchangeable by the Record Holder for Physical Receipts upon surrender of the temporary Receipts at
the Depositary’s Office or such other place or places as the Depositary shall determine pursuant to the first paragraph of Section 2.04, without charge to the Record Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Receipts,
the Depositary shall execute and deliver in exchange therefor Physical Receipts representing the same number of Depositary Shares as represented by the surrendered temporary Receipt or Receipts. Such exchange shall be made at the Corporation’s
expense and without any charge therefor to the Record Holder or the Depositary. Until so exchanged, the temporary Receipts shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Agreement as Physical Receipts. 

Receipts shall be executed by the Depositary by the manual or facsimile signature of a duly authorized officer thereof; provided that
if a Registrar for the Receipts (other than the Depositary) shall have been appointed, then such Receipts shall be countersigned by manual or facsimile signature of a duly authorized officer of the Registrar. No Receipt shall be entitled to any
benefits under this Agreement or be valid or obligatory for any purpose unless it shall have been executed as provided in the preceding sentence. The Depositary shall record on its books each Receipt so signed and delivered as hereinafter provided.
Receipts bearing the manual or facsimile signature of a duly authorized signatory of the Depositary who was at any time a proper signatory of the Depositary shall bind the Depositary, notwithstanding that such signatory ceased to hold such office
prior to the execution and delivery of such Receipts by the Registrar or did not hold such office on the date of issuance of such Receipts. 

Receipts may be endorsed with, or have incorporated in the text thereof, such legends or recitals or changes not inconsistent with the
provisions of this Agreement, all as may be required by the Corporation or required to comply with any applicable law or any regulation thereunder or with the rules and regulations of the NYSE or any other securities exchange upon which the
Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock, the Depositary Shares or the Receipts may be listed or to conform with any usage with respect thereto, or to indicate any special limitations or restrictions to which any particular Receipts are subject. 

Title to Depositary Shares evidenced by a Receipt that is properly endorsed, or accompanied by a properly executed instrument of transfer,
shall be transferable by delivery with the same effect as in the case of a negotiable instrument; provided, however, that until transfer of any particular Receipt shall be registered on the books of the Depositary as provided in
Section 2.06, the Depositary may, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary, treat the Record Holder thereof at such time as the absolute owner thereof (x) for the purpose of determining the Person (i) entitled to distributions of dividends or
other distributions of securities, cash or other property or payments with respect to the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock (including, without limitation, upon conversion and/or redemption of the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock),

  
 7 

 
(ii) entitled to exercise any voting, or conversion rights with respect to the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock and (iii) entitled to receive any notice provided for in this Agreement and
(y) for all other purposes. 
 Section 2.04. Deposit of Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock; Execution and Delivery
of Receipts. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Corporation may from time to time deposit shares of Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock under this Agreement by delivery to the Depositary of a certificate or
certificates for such shares of Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock to be deposited, properly endorsed or accompanied, if required by the Depositary, by a duly executed instrument of transfer or endorsement, in form satisfactory to the Depositary,
together with: 
 (a)    all such certifications as may be required by the Depositary in accordance with the provisions
of this Agreement, including the resolutions of the Board of Directors, as certified by the Secretary or any Assistant Secretary of the Corporation on the date thereof as being complete, accurate and in effect, relating to the issuance and sale
and/or deposit of the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock; 
 (b)    a letter of counsel to the Corporation
authorizing reliance by the Depositary on such counsel’s opinions delivered to the Underwriter pursuant to the terms of the Underwriting Agreement as to (i) the existence and good standing of the Corporation, (ii) the due authorization of the
Depositary Shares and the status of the Depositary Shares as validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and (iii) the effectiveness of any registration statement under the Securities Act relating to the offering and sale and/or deposit of the
Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock and the offering and sale of the Depositary Shares; and 
 (c)    a written order
of the Corporation, directing the Depositary to execute and deliver to the Person or Persons stated in such order a Receipt or Receipts for the number of Depositary Shares representing such deposited Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock. 

Deposited Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock shall be held by the Depositary at the Depositary’s Office or at such other place or
places as the Depositary shall determine. 
 Upon receipt by the Depositary of a certificate or certificates for Mandatory Convertible
Preferred Stock deposited in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.04, together with the other documents required as above specified, and upon recordation of the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock on the books of the Corporation (or
its duly appointed transfer agent) in the name of the Depositary or its nominee, the Depositary, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, shall execute and deliver to, or upon the order of, the Person or Persons named in the written
order delivered to the Depositary referred to in the first paragraph of this Section 2.04, a Receipt or Receipts evidencing in the aggregate the number of Depositary Shares representing the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock so deposited and
registered in such name or names as may be requested by such Person or Persons. The Depositary shall execute and deliver such Receipt or Receipts at the Depositary’s Office or, at the request of such Person or Persons, such other offices, if
any, as the Depositary may designate. Delivery at other offices shall be at the risk and expense of the Person or Persons requesting such delivery.

 Section 2.05. Redemption of Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock. If the
Corporation redeems the shares of Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock held by the Depositary pursuant to Section 13 of the Certificate of Designations, Computershare or the Depositary, as applicable, shall, on the same date, redeem the Depositary
Shares representing such shares of Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock from the cash (in accordance with Section 4.01) and/or shares of Common Stock (in accordance with Section 4.02), as applicable, received by Computershare or the Depositary, as
applicable, in connection with the redemption of such shares of Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock (applied pro rata in respect of such Depositary Shares). 

Other than as set forth in this Section 2.05, the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock and the Depositary Receipts shall not be subject to
redemption. The Corporation may, to the extent permitted by law, and directly or indirectly, repurchase Receipts with respect to lots of 20 Depositary Shares or integral multiples thereof in the open market or otherwise, whether directly,
through its Subsidiaries or through a private or public tender or exchange offer or through counterparties to private agreements. 
 Section
2.06. Registration of Transfer of Receipts. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Depositary shall register on its books from time to time transfers of Receipts upon any surrender thereof by
a Record Holder in person or by its duly authorized attorney, properly endorsed or accompanied by a properly executed instrument of transfer, including a guarantee of the signature thereon by a participant in a signature guarantee medallion program
approved by the Securities Transfer Association, Inc. (the “Signature Guarantee”). Thereupon, the Depositary shall, without unreasonable delay, execute a new Receipt or Receipts evidencing the same aggregate number of Depositary
Shares as those evidenced by the Receipt or Receipts surrendered and deliver such new Receipt or Receipts to or upon the order of the Person entitled thereto. 

Section 2.07. Split-ups and Combinations of Receipts; Surrender of Receipts and Withdrawal of Mandatory Convertible
Preferred Stock. Upon surrender of a Receipt or Receipts at the Depositary’s Office or at such other offices as it may designate for the purpose of effecting a split-up or combination of such Receipt or Receipts, and subject to
the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Depositary shall execute a new Receipt or Receipts in the authorized denomination or denominations requested, evidencing the aggregate number of Depositary Shares evidenced by the Receipt or Receipts
surrendered, and shall deliver such new Receipt or Receipts to or upon the order of the Record Holder of the Receipt or Receipts so surrendered. 

Any Record Holder of a Receipt or Receipts may withdraw the number of whole shares of Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock and all money
and/or other property represented thereby by (x) in the case of Physical Receipt(s), surrendering such Receipt(s), or Depositary Shares represented by the Receipts, at the Depositary’s Office or at such other offices as the Depositary may
designate for such withdrawals and (y) in the case of a DTC Receipts, by complying with the appropriate DTC procedures for such withdrawal. Thereafter, without

unreasonable delay, the Depositary shall deliver to such Record Holder, or to the Person or Persons designated by such Record Holder as hereinafter provided, the number of whole shares of
Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock and all money and/or other property represented by such Receipt(s), or Depositary Shares represented by such Receipt(s), representing the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock subject to withdrawal, but Record
Holders receiving such whole shares of Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock shall not thereafter be entitled to deposit such Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock hereunder or to receive a Receipt evidencing Depositary Shares therefor. If a
Physical Receipt delivered by the Record Holder to the Depositary in connection with such withdrawal shall evidence a number of Depositary Shares in excess of the number of Depositary Shares representing the number of whole shares of Mandatory
Convertible Preferred Stock to be withdrawn, the Depositary shall at the same time, in addition to such number of whole shares of Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock and such money and/or other property to be so withdrawn, deliver to such Record
Holder, or subject to Section 2.06 upon its order, a new Physical Receipt evidencing such excess number of Depositary Shares; provided, however, that such Physical Receipt shall only represent a whole number of Depositary Shares and
the Depositary shall not issue any Physical Receipt evidencing a fractional Depositary Share. 
 Delivery of the Mandatory Convertible
Preferred Stock and money and/or other property being withdrawn may be made by the delivery of such certificates, documents of title and other instruments as the Depositary may deem appropriate, which, if required by the Depositary, shall be
properly endorsed or accompanied by proper instruments of transfer including, but not limited to, a Signature Guarantee. 
 If the Mandatory
Convertible Preferred Stock and the money and/or other property being withdrawn are to be delivered to a Person or Persons other than the Record Holder of the related Receipt or Receipts being surrendered for withdrawal of such Mandatory Convertible
Preferred Stock, such Record Holder shall execute and deliver to the Depositary a written order so directing the Depositary, and the Depositary may require that the Physical Receipt(s) surrendered by such Record Holder for withdrawal of such shares
of Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock be properly endorsed in blank or accompanied by a properly executed instrument of transfer in blank. 

Delivery of the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock and the money and/or other property represented by Receipts surrendered for withdrawal
shall be made by the Depositary at the Depositary’s Office, except that, at the request, risk and expense of the Record Holder surrendering such Receipt or Receipts and for the account of the Record Holder thereof, such delivery may be made at
such other place as may be designated by such Record Holder. 
 A Record Holder who withdraws shares of Mandatory Convertible Preferred
Stock and any such money and/or other property shall not be required to pay any taxes or duties relating to the issuance or delivery of such shares of Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock and any such money and/or other property, except that such
Record Holder shall be required to pay any tax or duty that may be payable relating to any transfer involved in the issuance or delivery of such shares of Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock and any such money and/or other property in a name other
than the name of such Record Holder.

 Section 2.08. Limitations on Execution and Delivery, Transfer, Surrender
and Exchange of Receipts. As a condition precedent to the execution and delivery, registration of transfer, split-up, combination, surrender or exchange of any Receipt, any of the Depositary, any Depositary’s Agent and the
Corporation may require (a) payment to it of a sum sufficient for the payment (or, in the event that the Depositary or the Corporation shall have made such payment, the reimbursement to it) of any charges or expenses payable by the Record Holder of
a Receipt pursuant to Sections 3.02 and 5.07, (b) the production of evidence satisfactory to it as to the identity and genuineness of any signature, including a Signature Guarantee, or (c) compliance with such regulations, if any, as the Depositary
or the Corporation may establish consistent with the provisions of this Agreement and applicable law. 
 The deposit of the Mandatory
Convertible Preferred Stock may be refused, the delivery of Receipts against Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock may be suspended, the registration of transfer of Receipts may be refused and the registration of transfer, surrender or exchange of
outstanding Receipts may be suspended (i) during any period when the register of stockholders of the Corporation is closed or (ii) if any such action is deemed reasonably necessary or advisable by any of the Depositary, any of the Depositary’s
Agents and the Corporation at any time or from time to time because of any requirement of law or of any government or governmental body or commission or under any provision of this Agreement. 

Section 2.09. Lost Receipts, etc. In case any Receipt shall be mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen, the
Depositary shall execute and deliver a Receipt of like form and tenor in exchange and substitution for such mutilated Receipt upon cancellation thereof, or in lieu of and in substitution for such destroyed, lost or stolen Receipt, upon (a) the
filing by the Record Holder thereof with the Depositary of evidence satisfactory to the Depositary of such destruction or loss or theft of such Receipt, of the authenticity thereof and of his or her ownership thereof; (b) the Record Holder thereof
furnishing of the Depositary with an open penalty surety bond reasonably satisfactory to the Depositary holding it and the Corporation harmless; and (c) the payment of any reasonable expense (including reasonable fees, charges and expenses of the
Depositary) in connection with such execution and delivery. 
 Section 2.10. Cancellation and Destruction of
Surrendered Receipts. All Receipts surrendered to the Depositary or any Depositary’s Agent, including Receipts surrendered in connection with any conversion of the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock into shares of Common
Stock or in connection with any redemption of the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock, in each case, in accordance with the Articles of Incorporation, shall be cancelled by the Depositary. Except as prohibited by applicable law or regulation, the
Depositary is authorized and directed to destroy all Receipts so cancelled. 
 Section 2.11. Conversion at the Option of
Holders. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Record Holder of any Receipt may, at any time that Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock may be converted pursuant to Section 6(a) or 7(a) of the Certificate

  
 11 

 
of Designations, by (x) in the case of a Physical Receipt, surrendering such Physical Receipt at the Depositary’s Office or such other office as the Depositary may from time to time
designate for such purpose together with a notice of conversion properly completed and duly executed and a proper assignment of such Receipt to the Corporation or the Transfer Agent or in blank to the Depositary or any of the Depositary’s
Agents, and (y) in the case of a DTC Receipt, complying with the procedures of DTC in effect at that time, in each case, thereby instructing the Depositary to cause the conversion of a specified number (the “Conversion Number”) of
whole shares of Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock represented by the Depositary Shares evidenced by such Receipt in accordance with the Articles of Incorporation, and specifying the name in which such Record Holder desires the Common Stock
issuable upon conversion (including in respect of any Optional Conversion Additional Conversion Amount, any Fundamental Change Dividend Make-whole Amount and any Accumulated Dividend Amount, in each case, in accordance with the Articles of
Incorporation) to be registered and specifying payment instructions. Depositary Shares may be converted at the option of the Record Holder of any Receipt only in lots of 20 Depositary Shares or integral multiples thereof. The Depositary shall be
deemed to have no knowledge of the Conversion Number unless and until it shall have actually received written notice thereof from the Corporation, and shall have no duty or obligation to investigate or inquire as to whether any Conversion Number
contained in any such written notice is accurate, or whether it complies with the Articles of Incorporation. If specified by the Record Holder in such notice of conversion that Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Depositary Shares shall be
issued to a Person other than the Record Holder surrendering the Receipt for the Depositary Shares being converted, then the Record Holder shall pay or cause to be paid any transfer or similar taxes payable in connection with the Common Stock or
other securities so issued that are not payable by the Corporation pursuant to the Articles of Incorporation or Section 3.02. In addition, the holder shall provide any other transfer forms, tax forms or other relevant documentation required and
specified by the Transfer Agent for the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock, if necessary, to effect the conversion. 
 Upon fulfillment
of the requirements in the foregoing paragraph, the Depositary is hereby authorized and instructed to, and shall, as promptly as practicable, (a) give written notice to the Transfer Agent of (i) the Conversion Number (as specified in writing by
the Corporation), (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock to be delivered upon conversion of such Conversion Number of shares of Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock (including in respect of any Optional Conversion Additional Conversion
Amount, any Fundamental Change Dividend Make-whole Amount and any Accumulated Dividend Amount, in each case, in accordance with the Articles of Incorporation) (as specified in writing by the Corporation), (iii) the amount of immediately
available funds (as specified in writing by the Corporation), if any, to be delivered to the Record Holder of such Receipts in payment of any fractional shares of Common Stock otherwise issuable upon conversion of such Conversion Number of shares of
Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock and (iv) the amount of cash (as specified in writing by the Corporation), if any, to be delivered to the Record Holder of such Receipts in respect of any Optional Conversion Additional Conversion Amount (to
the extent not satisfied in full through the issuance and delivery of shares of Common Stock), any Fundamental Change Dividend Make-whole Amount and any Accumulated Dividend Amount, in each case, payable by the Corporation upon conversion of such
Conversion Number of shares of Mandatory Convertible 

  
 12 

 
Preferred Stock pursuant to the Articles of Incorporation, (b) cancel such Receipt or, if a Registrar for Receipts (other than the Depositary) shall have been appointed, cause such Registrar to
cancel such Receipt, and (c) surrender to the Transfer Agent or any other authorized agent of the Corporation for conversion, in accordance with the Articles of Incorporation (as specified in writing by the Corporation), certificates for the
Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock represented by Depositary Shares as evidenced by such Receipt, together with delivery to the Corporation or the appropriate agent of the Corporation (pursuant to written instructions from the Corporation) any
other information or payment required by the Articles of Incorporation (as specified in writing by the Corporation) for such conversion, and such certificates shall thereupon be canceled by the Transfer Agent or other authorized agent. The
Depositary shall have no duty or obligation to investigate or inquire as to whether the Corporation provided it with the correct number of shares of Common Stock to be delivered upon any conversion of the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock
(including in respect of any Optional Conversion Additional Conversion Amount, any Fundamental Change Dividend Make-whole Amount and any Accumulated Dividend Amount), or the correct amount of cash to be delivered in payment of any fractional shares
of Common Stock otherwise issuable or in respect of any cash payable by the Corporation upon any conversion of the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock (including in respect of any Optional Conversion Additional Conversion Amount (to the extent not
satisfied in full through the issuance and delivery of shares of Common Stock), any Fundamental Change Dividend Make-whole Amount and any Accumulated Dividend Amount), and the Depositary may rely conclusively on any such information provided by the
Corporation. 
 As promptly as practicable after the Transfer Agent or other authorized agent of the Corporation has received such
certificates from the Depositary, (a) the Corporation shall cause to be furnished to the Depositary (i) a certificate or certificates evidencing such number of shares of Common Stock to be delivered upon conversion of the Conversion Number of
shares of Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock (including in respect of any Optional Conversion Additional Conversion Amount, any Fundamental Change Dividend Make-whole Amount and any Accumulated Dividend Amount, in each case, in accordance with
the Articles of Incorporation), (ii) such amount of immediately available funds, if any, to be delivered in respect of any Optional Conversion Additional Conversion Amount (to the extent not satisfied in full through the issuance and delivery
of shares of Common Stock), any Fundamental Change Dividend Make-whole Amount and any Accumulated Dividend Amount, in each case, payable by the Corporation upon conversion of such shares of Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock pursuant to the
Articles of Incorporation, and (iii) such amount of immediately available funds, if any, to be delivered in lieu of receiving fractional shares of Common Stock, as specified in a written notice from the Corporation and (b) the Depositary is
hereby authorized and instructed to, and shall, deliver at the Depositary’s Office, (i) a certificate or certificates evidencing the number of shares of Common Stock (including in respect of any Optional Conversion Additional Conversion Amount,
any Fundamental Change Dividend Make-whole Amount and any Accumulated Dividend Amount, in each case, in accordance with the Articles of Incorporation) into which the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock represented by Depositary Shares as evidenced
by such Receipt has been converted, (ii) the amount of cash payable by the Corporation upon such conversion of such Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock in respect of any Optional Conversion Additional Conversion Amount (to the extent not satisfied
in full 

  
 13 

 
through the issuance and delivery of shares of Common Stock), any Fundamental Change Dividend Make-whole Amount and any Accumulated Dividend Amount, in each case, pursuant to the Articles of
Incorporation and (iii) the amount of cash payable by the Corporation upon such conversion of such Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock in lieu of delivering fractional shares of Common Stock, in each case, as specified in writing by the
Corporation and that has been provided by the Corporation. 
 In the event that a Record Holder of a surrendered Receipt elects to convert
fewer than all Depositary Shares evidenced by such Receipt under this Section 2.11, upon such conversion, the Depositary shall, if requested in writing and provided with all necessary information and documents, authenticate, countersign and deliver
to such Record Holder thereof, at the expense of the Corporation, a new Receipt evidencing the Depositary Shares as to which such conversion was not effected. 

Delivery of Common Stock following a conversion pursuant to this Section 2.11 may be made by the delivery of such certificates, documents of
title and other instruments as the Depositary may deem appropriate, which, if required by the Depositary, shall be properly endorsed or accompanied by proper instruments of transfer. If such delivery is to be made otherwise than at the
Depositary’s Office, such delivery shall be made, as hereinafter provided, without unreasonable delay, at the risk of any Record Holder surrendering Receipts, and for the account of such Record Holder, to such place designated in writing by
such Record Holder. 
 For purposes of this Section 2.11 and Section 4.02, if the Common Stock has been replaced by Exchange Property as a
result of any transaction as described in Section 11(e) of the Certificate of Designations, references to Common Stock will be deemed to be references to a Unit of Exchange Property that a holder of one share of Common Stock would have been entitled
to receive in such transaction as determined pursuant to Section 11(e) of the Certificate of Designations. 
 Section 2.12. No
Pre-Release. The Depositary shall not deliver any deposited Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock represented by Depositary Shares evidenced by Receipts prior to the receipt and cancellation of such Receipts or other similar method used
with respect to Receipts held by DTC. The Depositary shall not issue any Receipts prior to the receipt by the Depositary of the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock corresponding to Depositary Shares evidenced by such Receipts. At no time will any
Receipts be outstanding if such Receipts do not evidence Depositary Shares representing Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock deposited with the Depositary, subject to the rights of holders to receive distributions upon conversion or redemption of
the deposited Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock pursuant to Section 4.01 or Section 4.02. 
 Section 2.13. Receipt
of Funds. All funds received by Computershare under this Agreement that are to be distributed or applied by Computershare in the performance of its services hereunder (the “Funds”) shall be held by Computershare as
agent for the Corporation and deposited in one or more bank accounts to be maintained by Computershare in its name as agent for the Corporation. Until paid pursuant to this Agreement, Computershare may hold or

  
 14 

 
invest the Funds through such accounts in: (i) obligations of, or guaranteed by, the United States of America, (ii) commercial paper obligations rated A-1 or P-1 or better by Standard &
Poor’s Corporation (“S&P”) or Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (“Moody’s”), respectively, (iii) money market funds that comply with Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act of 1940, or (iv) demand
deposit accounts, short term certificates of deposit, bank repurchase agreements or bankers’ acceptances, of commercial banks with Tier 1 capital exceeding $1 billion or with an average rating above investment grade by S&P (LT Local Issuer
Credit Rating), Moody’s (Long Term Rating) and Fitch Ratings, Inc. (LT Issuer Default Rating) (each as reported by Bloomberg Finance L.P.). The Corporation shall have no responsibility or liability for any diminution of the Funds that may
result from any deposit or investment made by Computershare in accordance with this Section 2.13, except for any losses resulting from a default by any bank, financial institution or other third party (but, for the avoidance of doubt, Computershare
shall bear responsibility and liability for any diminution of the Funds resulting from the investment of the Funds pursuant to this Section 2.13, other than those resulting from a default by any bank, financial institution or other third party, such
that Record Holders of Receipts receive the full amount of money and/or property under this Agreement to which they are entitled as holders of fractional interests in shares of the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock, and such responsibility and
liability shall not be subject to Section 5.03 of this Agreement). Computershare may from time to time receive interest, dividends or other earnings in connection with such deposits or investments. Computershare shall not be obligated to pay such
interest, dividends or earnings to the Corporation, any holder or any other party. 
 ARTICLE 3 

CERTAIN OBLIGATIONS OF RECORD HOLDERS OF
RECEIPTS AND OF THE CORPORATION 
 Section
3.01. Filing Proofs; Certificates and Other Information. Any Record Holder of a Receipt may be required from time to time to file proof of residence, or other matters or other information, to execute
certificates and to make such representations and warranties as the Depositary or the Corporation may reasonably deem necessary or proper. The Depositary or the Corporation may withhold the delivery, or delay the registration of transfer or
exchange, of any Receipt or the withdrawal of the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock represented by the Depositary Shares and evidenced by a Receipt or the distribution of any dividend or other distribution or the sale of any rights or of the
proceeds thereof until such proof or other information is filed or such certificates are executed or such representations and warranties are made. 

Section 3.02. Payment of Taxes or Other Governmental Charges. Record Holders of Receipts shall be
obligated to make payments to the Depositary of certain fees, charges and expenses, as provided in Section 5.07. Registration of transfer of any Receipt or any withdrawal of Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock and all money and/or other property
represented by the Depositary Shares evidenced by such Receipt may be refused until any such payment due is made or satisfactory evidence is provided by such Record Holder to the Depositary that such fees, charges and expenses have been paid, and
any dividends, interest payments or other distributions may be withheld or any part of or all the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock represented by 

  
 15 

 
the Depositary Shares evidenced by such Receipt and not theretofore sold may be sold for the account of the Record Holder of such Receipt (after attempting by reasonable means to notify such
Record Holder prior to such sale), and such dividends, interest payments or other distributions or the proceeds of any such sale may be applied to any payment of such charges or expenses, the Record Holder of such Receipt remaining liable for any
deficiency. 
 Section 3.03. Warranty as to Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock. The Corporation
hereby represents and warrants that the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock, when issued, will be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. Such representation and warranty shall survive the deposit of the Mandatory
Convertible Preferred Stock and the issuance of the related Receipts. 
 Section 3.04. Warranty as to
Receipts. The Corporation hereby represents and warrants that the Receipts, when issued in accordance with this Agreement, will represent legal and valid interests in the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock. Such representation and
warranty shall survive the deposit of the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock and the issuance of the Receipts. 
 Section
3.05. Listing. The Corporation hereby covenants and agrees that it will apply to list the Depositary Shares on the NYSE. If the Depositary Shares are listed on the NYSE, the Corporation covenants and agrees to use its
reasonable best efforts to keep the Depositary Shares listed on the NYSE. 
 ARTICLE 4 

THE DEPOSITED SECURITIES; NOTICES 

Section 4.01. Cash Distributions. Whenever Computershare, as distribution agent, shall receive any cash
dividend or other cash distribution on the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock, Computershare shall, subject to Sections 3.01 and 3.02, distribute to Record Holders of Receipts on the record date fixed pursuant to Section 4.04 such amounts of such
dividend or distribution as are, as nearly as practicable, in proportion to the respective number of Depositary Shares evidenced by the Receipts held by such Record Holders; provided, however, that in case the Corporation or
Computershare shall be required to withhold, and shall withhold, from any cash dividend or other cash distribution in respect of the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock an amount on account of taxes, the amount of cash made available for
distribution or distributed in respect of Depositary Shares shall be reduced accordingly, and such withheld cash shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Record Holder of Receipts in respect of which the
Corporation or Computershare, as the case may be, made such withholding. The distribution described in the immediately preceding sentence shall apply to any distribution by the Depositary of cash payable to the Record Holders (a) as a result of the
conversion of the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock into cash in accordance with the terms of the Articles of Incorporation (including, without limitation, upon mandatory conversion of such Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock); provided
that in such case the distribution of cash shall be made to Record Holders as of the close of business on the relevant Conversion Date; (b) 

  
 16 

 
pursuant to Section 2.05 as a result of the redemption of the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock; provided that in such case the distribution of cash shall be made on the relevant
Acquisition Termination Redemption Date to Record Holders of the Receipts to be so redeemed; or (c) as a result of the payment of a declared dividend on the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock in accordance with the terms of the Articles of
Incorporation. In the event that the calculation of any such cash dividend or other cash distribution to be paid to any Record Holder on the aggregate number of Depositary Shares evidenced by the Receipts held by such Record Holder results in an
amount that is a fraction of a cent and that fraction of a cent is equal to or greater than $0.005, the amount Computershare shall distribute to such Record Holder shall be rounded up to the next highest whole cent; otherwise, such fractional amount
shall be disregarded by Computershare; provided, however, that the Corporation shall pay the additional amount to Computershare for distribution. 

Each Record Holder of a Receipt shall provide the Depositary with its certified tax identification number on a properly completed Form W-8 or
W-9, as may be applicable. Each Record Holder of a Receipt acknowledges that, in the event of non-compliance with the preceding sentence, the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, may require withholding or backup withholding by Computershare
of a portion of any of the distributions to be made hereunder. 
 Section 4.02. Distributions Other than Cash, Rights,
Options or Privileges. Whenever the Depositary shall receive any distribution other than cash, rights, options or privileges upon the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock, the Depositary shall, subject to Sections 3.01 and 3.02,
distribute to Record Holders of Receipts on the record date fixed pursuant to Section 4.04 such amounts of the securities or property received by it as are, as nearly as practicable, in proportion to the respective numbers of Depositary Shares
evidenced by such Receipts held by such Record Holders, in any manner that the Depositary may deem equitable and practicable for accomplishing such distribution, including, without limitation, through book-entry transfer through DTC in the case of
DTC Receipts; provided that, in case the Depositary shall be required to withhold from any distribution in respect of the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock an amount on account of taxes, the amount of property or securities made available
for distribution or distributed in respect of Depositary Shares shall be reduced as necessary to permit any withholding, and such withheld property may be disposed of by the Depositary, without any further consent or direction from the Corporation,
in such manner as the Depositary reasonably deems necessary and practicable to pay such taxes and shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Record Holder of the Receipt in respect of which the Depositary, as the
case may be, made such withholding. The distribution described in the immediately preceding sentence shall apply to any distribution by the Depositary of shares of Common Stock deliverable to the Record Holders (a) as a result of the conversion
of the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock in accordance with the terms of the Articles of Incorporation (including, without limitation, upon mandatory conversion of such Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock);
provided that in such case the distribution of shares of Common Stock shall be made to Record Holders as of the close of business on the relevant Conversion Date; (b) pursuant to Section 2.05 as a result of the redemption of the Mandatory
Convertible Preferred Stock; provided that in such case the distribution of shares of 

  
 17 

 
Common Stock shall be made on the relevant Acquisition Termination Redemption Date to Record Holders of the Receipts to be redeemed; or (c) as a result of the payment of a declared dividend on
the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock in accordance with the terms of the Articles of Incorporation. If, in the opinion of the Depositary, such distribution cannot be made proportionately among such Record Holders, or if for any other
reason (including any requirement that the Corporation or the Depositary withhold an amount on account of taxes or governmental charges) the Depositary deems, after consultation with the Corporation, such distribution not to be feasible, then the
Depositary may, with the approval of the Corporation, adopt such method as it deems equitable and practicable for the purpose of effecting such distribution, including the sale (at public or private sale) of the securities or property thus received,
or any part thereof, in a commercially reasonable manner. The net proceeds of any such sale shall, subject to Sections 3.01 and 3.02, be distributed or made available for distribution, as the case may be, by the Depositary to Record Holders of
Receipts as provided by Section 4.01 in the case of a distribution received in cash. The Corporation shall not make any distribution of such securities or property to the Depositary, and the Depositary shall not make any distribution of such
securities or property to the Record Holders of Receipts, unless the Corporation shall have provided an opinion of counsel stating that such distribution of securities or property has been registered under the Securities Act or does not need to be
so registered in connection therewith. 
 In the event of a distribution of securities, whether upon conversion of the Mandatory Convertible
Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock, upon redemption of the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock for shares of Common Stock, in respect of any payment of a dividend on the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock or otherwise, fractional
shares of such securities shall not be distributed to the Record Holders. Instead, a Record Holder that otherwise would have been entitled to receive a fraction of a security will receive an amount in cash, rounded to the nearest cent, equal to such
Record Holder’s proportionate interest in the net proceeds from the sale in the open market by the Depositary, or an agent of the Depositary or other entity as so instructed in writing by the Corporation, on behalf of all such Record Holders,
of the aggregate fractional shares of the securities that would otherwise have been issued, unless (i) the distribution of securities in question is the Corporation’s issuance of the shares of Common Stock upon conversion of the Mandatory
Convertible Preferred Stock, in which case such Record Holder will be entitled to receive an amount in cash (computed to the nearest cent) equal to the product of: (x) that same fraction; and (y) the VWAP per share of Common Stock on the Trading Day
immediately preceding the relevant Conversion Date; provided that if more than one share of the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock is surrendered for, or subject to, conversion at one time by or for the same holder, the number of shares of
Common Stock issuable upon conversion thereof shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate number of shares of the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock so surrendered for, or subject to, conversion; (ii) the distribution of securities in
question is the Corporation’s issuance of shares of Common Stock upon redemption of the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock, in which case such Record Holder will be entitled to receive an amount in cash (computed to the nearest cent) equal
to the product of: (x) that same fraction and (y) the Average VWAP per share of Common Stock over the five consecutive Trading Day period commencing on, and including, the seventh Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding the scheduled Acquisition
Termination 

  
 18 

 
Redemption Date; provided that if more than one share of the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock held by the same holder is redeemed, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon
redemption thereof shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate number of shares of the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock so redeemed; or (iii) the distribution of securities in question is the Corporation’s issuance of shares of Common
Stock in respect of any payment of a dividend on Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock, in which case such Record Holder will be entitled to receive an amount in cash (computed to the nearest cent) equal to the product of: (x) that same
fraction and (y) the Dividend Payment Average Price; provided that if such dividend payment is made on more than one share of the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock held by the same holder, the number of shares of Common Stock
issuable in respect thereof shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate number of shares of the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock so held by such holder. The sale described in the immediately previous sentence shall occur as soon as
practicable following the distribution date for such securities. In the event that such sale of the aggregate fractional shares of the securities that otherwise would have been issued is completed and a fraction of a share of such security still
remains (the “Remaining Fractional Share”), the Depositary shall immediately notify the Corporation in writing of the Remaining Fractional Share, which notice may be delivered via electronic mail to the address set forth in Section
7.04. Upon receipt of such notice, the Board of Directors in its good faith shall determine the cash equivalent of the Remaining Fractional Share (the “Remaining Fractional Share Amount”), which Remaining Fractional Share Amount
shall be equal to the Remaining Fractional Share, multiplied by the Closing Sale Price of such securities on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of the distribution of such securities. The determination of the Remaining Fractional
Share Amount by the Board of Directors shall be binding on the parties hereto and on the Record Holders. The Corporation shall promptly transfer funds for the Remaining Fractional Share Amount to an account selected by the Depositary, and the
Depositary shall add the Remaining Fractional Share Amount to the net proceeds from the sale described above for distribution to the Record Holders otherwise entitled to receive the fractional shares of the securities. 

The Person or Persons entitled to receive any shares of Common Stock issuable upon any conversion of the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock
shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder(s) of such shares of Common Stock as of the close of business on the relevant Conversion Date. 

Section 4.03. Subscription Rights, Options or Privileges. If the Corporation shall at any time offer or
cause to be offered to the Persons in whose names the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock is recorded on the books of the Corporation any rights, options or privileges to subscribe for or to purchase any securities or any rights, options or
privileges of any other nature, the terms of such rights, options or privileges shall in each such instance be communicated promptly to the Depositary and thereafter such rights, options or privileges shall be made available by the Depositary to the
Record Holders of Receipts in such manner as the Depositary may determine, either by the issue to such Record Holders of warrants representing such rights, options or privileges or by such other method as may be approved by the Depositary in its
discretion with the approval of the Corporation; provided, however, that (a) if at the time of issuance or offer of any such rights, options or privileges, the Depositary determines that it is not

  
 19 

 
lawful or (after consultation with the Corporation) not feasible to make such rights, options or privileges available to Record Holders of Receipts by the issue of warrants or otherwise or (b) if
Record Holders of Receipts do not desire to exercise such rights, options or privileges and so instruct the Depositary, then the Depositary, in its reasonable discretion (with approval of the Corporation, in any case where the Depositary has
determined that it is not feasible to make such rights, options or privileges available), may, if applicable laws or the terms of such rights, options or privileges permit such transfer, sell such rights, options or privileges at public or private
sale, at such place or places and upon such terms as it may deem proper. The net proceeds of any such sale shall, subject to Sections 3.01 and 3.02, be distributed by the Depositary to the Record Holders of Receipts entitled thereto as provided by
Section 4.01 in the case of a distribution received in cash. 
 The Corporation shall notify the Depositary whether registration under the
Securities Act of the securities to which any rights, options or privileges relate is required in order for Record Holders of Receipts to be offered or sold the securities to which such rights, options or privileges relate, and the Corporation
agrees with the Depositary that it will file promptly a registration statement pursuant to the Securities Act with respect to such rights, options or privileges and securities and use its reasonable best efforts and take all steps available to it to
cause such registration statement to become effective sufficiently in advance of the expiration of such rights, options or privileges to enable such Record Holders to exercise such rights, options or privileges in compliance with the Securities Act.
In no event shall the Depositary make available to the Record Holders of Receipts any right, option or privilege to subscribe for or to purchase any securities unless and until such registration statement shall have become effective, or the
Corporation shall have provided to the Depositary an opinion of counsel to the effect that the offering and sale of such securities to the Record Holders are exempt from registration under the provisions of the Securities Act. 

The Corporation shall notify the Depositary whether any other action under the laws of any jurisdiction or any governmental or administrative
authorization, consent or permit is required in order for such rights, options or privileges to be made available to Record Holders of Receipts, and the Corporation agrees with the Depositary that the Corporation shall use its reasonable best
efforts to take such action or obtain such authorization, consent or permit sufficiently in advance of the expiration of such rights, options or privileges to enable such Record Holders to exercise such rights, options or privileges. 

Section 4.04. Notice of Dividends, etc.; Fixing Record Date for Record Holders of Receipts. Whenever any
cash dividend or other cash distribution shall become payable or any distribution other than cash shall be made, or if rights, options or privileges shall at any time be offered, with respect to the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock, or whenever
the Depositary shall receive notice of any meeting at which holders of the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock are entitled to vote or of which holders of the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock are entitled to notice, or whenever the Depositary
and the Corporation shall decide it is appropriate, the Depositary shall in each such instance fix a record date (which shall be the same date as the record date fixed by the Corporation with respect to or otherwise in accordance with the terms of
the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock) for the determination of the Record Holders of 

  
 20 

 
Receipts who shall be entitled to receive such dividend, distribution, rights, options or privileges or the net proceeds of the sale thereof, or to give instructions for the exercise of voting
rights at any such meeting, or who shall be entitled to notice of such meeting or for any other appropriate reasons. 
 Section
4.05. Voting Rights. Subject to the provisions of the Articles of Incorporation, upon receipt of notice of any meeting at which the holders of the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock are entitled to vote, the
Depositary shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, send to the Record Holders of Receipts, determined on the record date as set forth in Section 4.04, a notice prepared by the Corporation that shall contain (a) such information as is contained in
such notice of meeting and (b) a statement that the Record Holders may, subject to any applicable restrictions, instruct the Depositary as to the exercise of the voting rights pertaining to the amount of Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock
represented by their respective Depositary Shares (including an express indication that instructions may be given to the Depositary to give a discretionary proxy to a Person designated by the Corporation) and a brief statement as to the manner in
which such instructions may be given. Each Record Holder of Receipts on the record date (which shall be the same date as the record date fixed by the Corporation with respect to or otherwise in accordance with the terms of the Mandatory Convertible
Preferred Stock) may instruct the Depositary as to how to vote the amount of the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock represented by such Record Holder’s Receipts in accordance with these instructions. Upon the written request of the Record
Holders of Receipts on the relevant record date, the Depositary shall endeavor insofar as practicable to vote or cause to be voted, in accordance with the instructions set forth in such requests, the maximum number of whole shares of Mandatory
Convertible Preferred Stock represented by the Depositary Shares evidenced by all Receipts as to which any particular voting instructions are received. The Corporation hereby agrees to take all action which may be deemed necessary by the Depositary
in order to enable the Depositary to vote such Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock or cause such Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock to be voted. In the absence of specific instructions from Record Holders of Receipts, the Depositary shall
abstain from voting the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock to the extent it does not receive such specific instructions from the Record Holders of Receipts. 

Section 4.06. Changes Affecting Deposited Securities and Reclassifications, Recapitalizations, Etc. Upon
any change in par or stated value, split-up, combination or any other reclassification of the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock, subject to the provisions of the Articles of Incorporation, or upon any recapitalization, reorganization, merger or
consolidation affecting the Corporation or to which it is a party, the Depositary shall (a) make such adjustments as are certified by the Corporation in the fraction of an interest represented by one Depositary Share in one share of Mandatory
Convertible Preferred Stock as may be necessary fully to reflect the effects of such change in par or stated value, split-up, combination or other reclassification of the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock, or of such recapitalization,
reorganization, merger or consolidation and (b) treat any securities that shall be received by the Depositary in exchange for or, subject to the final sentence of this Section 4.06, upon conversion or redemption of or in respect of the Mandatory
Convertible Preferred Stock as new deposited securities so received in exchange for or upon conversion or in respect of such Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock. In any such case the Corporation may in its discretion

  
 21 

 
direct the Depositary to execute and deliver additional Receipts or may call for the surrender of all outstanding Receipts to be exchanged for new Receipts specifically describing such new
deposited securities. Anything to the contrary herein notwithstanding, Record Holders of Receipts shall have the right from and after the effective date of any such change in par or stated value, split-up, combination or other reclassification of
the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock or any such recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation to surrender such Receipts to the Depositary with instructions to convert, exchange or surrender the Mandatory Convertible Preferred
Stock represented thereby only into or for, as the case may be, the kind and amount of shares and other securities and property and cash into which the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock represented by such Receipts might have been converted or
for which such Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock might have been exchanged or surrendered immediately prior to the effective date of such transaction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Common Stock issuable upon conversion or redemption
of, or in lieu of cash dividends on, the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock shall not constitute new deposited securities hereunder and instead the provisions set forth in Section 4.02 shall apply. 

Section 4.07. Delivery of Reports. The Depositary shall furnish to Record Holders of Receipts any
reports, notices and communications received from the Corporation that are received by the Depositary, as the holder of the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock, and that the Corporation is required to furnish to the holders of the Mandatory
Convertible Preferred Stock. 
 Section 4.08. Lists of Receipt Record Holders. Reasonably promptly
upon request from time to time by the Corporation, at the sole expense of the Corporation, the Depositary shall furnish to it a list, as of the most recent practicable date, of the names, addresses and holdings of Depositary Shares of all registered
Record Holders of Receipts. 
 Section 4.09. Corporation-owned Depositary Shares Disregarded. In
determining whether the Record Holders of the requisite number of Receipts have concurred in any vote (including, without limitation, in respect of any direction, consent, request, amendment, alteration or supplement) referred to in this Agreement,
Depositary Shares that are owned by the Corporation, by any Subsidiary thereof or by any Person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with the Corporation or any Subsidiary thereof shall be
disregarded and deemed not to be outstanding for the purpose of any such determination. 
 ARTICLE 5 

THE DEPOSITARY, THE DEPOSITARY’S AGENTS,
THE REGISTRAR AND THE CORPORATION 
 Section
5.01. Maintenance of Offices, Agencies and Transfer Books by the Depositary; Registrar; Depositary’s Agents. Upon execution of this Agreement, the Depositary shall maintain at the
Depositary’s Office, facilities for the execution and delivery, transfer, surrender and exchange, split-up and combination of Receipts and deposit and withdrawal of the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock, and at the offices of the
Depositary’s Agents, if any, 

  
 22 

 
facilities for the delivery, transfer, surrender and exchange of Receipts and deposit and withdrawal of the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock, all in accordance with the provisions of this
Agreement. 
 The Registrar shall keep books at the Depositary’s Office for the registration and transfer of Receipts. Upon direction
by the Corporation and with reasonable notice to the Registrar, the Registrar shall open its books for inspection by the Record Holders of Receipts as directed by the Corporation; provided that any Record Holder shall be granted such right by
the Corporation only after certifying that such inspection shall be for a proper purpose reasonably related to such Person’s interest as an owner of Depositary Shares evidenced by the Receipts. 

The Corporation may cause the Registrar to close such books, at any time or from time to time, when deemed expedient by it in connection with
the performance of its duties hereunder. 
 The Depositary may, with the approval of the Corporation, appoint a Registrar for registration
of the Receipts or the Depositary Shares evidenced thereby. If the Receipts or the Depositary Shares evidenced thereby or the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock represented by such Depositary Shares shall be listed on one or more national
securities exchanges, the Depositary shall appoint a Registrar (acceptable to the Corporation) for registration of the Receipts or Depositary Shares in accordance with any requirements of such exchange. Such registrar (which may be the Registrar if
so permitted by the requirements of any such exchange) may be removed and a substitute registrar may be appointed by the Depositary upon the request or with the approval of the Corporation. If the Receipts, Depositary Shares or Mandatory Convertible
Preferred Stock are listed on one or more other securities exchanges, the Registrar shall, at the expense and request of the Corporation, arrange such facilities for the delivery, transfer, surrender and exchange of the Receipts, Depositary Shares
or Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock as may be required by law or applicable securities exchange regulation. 
 The Depositary may from
time to time appoint one or more Depositary’s Agents to act in any respect for the Depositary for the purposes of this Agreement and may from time to time appoint additional Depositary’s Agents and vary or terminate the appointment of such
Depositary’s Agents; provided that the Depositary shall notify the Corporation of any such appointment or variation or termination of such appointment. 

Section 5.02. Prevention of or Delay in Performance by the Depositary, the Depositary’s Agents, the
Registrar or the Transfer Agent. None of the Depositary, any Depositary’s Agent, any Registrar and any Transfer Agent shall incur any liability to the Corporation or to any Record Holder of a Receipt if by reason of any
provision of any present or future law, or regulation thereunder, of the United States of America or of any other governmental authority or by reason of any provision, present or future, of the Articles of Incorporation or by reason of any act of
God or war or other circumstance beyond the control of the relevant party, the Depositary, any such Depositary’s Agent, any such Registrar or any such Transfer Agent shall be prevented, delayed or forbidden from, or subjected to any penalty on
account of, doing or performing any act or thing which the terms of this Agreement provide shall be done or performed. Nor shall the Depositary, any Depositary’s Agent, any Registrar nor any Transfer Agent incur liability to the

  
 23 

 
Corporation or to any Record Holder of a Receipt (a) by reason of any nonperformance or delay, caused as aforesaid, in the performance of any act or thing which the terms of this Agreement shall
provide shall or may be done or performed or (b) by reason of any exercise of, or failure to exercise, any discretion provided for in this Agreement except, in case of any such exercise or failure to exercise discretion not caused as aforesaid, if
caused by the gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith of the party charged with such exercise or failure to exercise, or as otherwise explicitly set forth in this Agreement. 

Section 5.03. Obligations of the Depositary, the Depositary’s Agents, the Registrar and the Transfer
Agent. None of the Depositary, any Depositary’s Agent, any Registrar and any Transfer Agent assumes any obligation or shall be subject to any liability under this Agreement to Record Holders of Receipts, the Corporation or any
other Person or entity other than for its gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith. 
 None of the Depositary, any
Depositary’s Agent, any Registrar and any Transfer Agent shall be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any action, suit or other proceeding in respect of the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock, the Depositary Shares or the
Receipts, which, in its reasonable opinion, may involve it in expense or liability, unless indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against all expense and liability be furnished as often as may be reasonably required. 

None of the Depositary, any Depositary’s Agent, any Registrar and any Transfer Agent shall be liable for any action or any failure to act
by it in reliance upon the written advice of legal counsel or accountants, or information from any Person presenting Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock for deposit, any Record Holder of a Receipt or any other Person believed by it in good faith
to be competent to give such information. Each of the Depositary, any Depositary’s Agent, any Registrar and any Transfer Agent may rely, and shall each be protected in acting upon or omitting to act, upon any written notice, request, direction
or other document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties. 
 The Depositary shall
indemnify the Corporation against any liability that may directly arise out of acts performed or omitted by the Depositary or any Depositary’s Agent due to its or their gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith. Notwithstanding anything
contained herein to the contrary, except as set forth in Section 2.13, the Depositary’s aggregate liability during the term of this Agreement with respect to, arising from, or arising in connection with, this Agreement, or from all services
provided or omitted to be provided under this Agreement, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, is limited to, and shall not exceed, the amounts paid hereunder by the Corporation to the Depositary as fees and charges, but not including
reimbursable expenses; provided, however, that in the event that such liability arises as a result of misappropriation of funds by the Depositary, any of the Depositary’s Agents (except for such Depositary’s Agents that are
not employees of the Depositary), any Registrar or any Transfer Agent, as the case may be, through fraud or willful misconduct on the part of such Person (as determined by a non-appealable judgment, order, decree or ruling of a court of competent
jurisdiction, an arbitral award or an agreement with the Corporation), such limit shall not apply and such liability hereunder shall be instead limited to the amount of such misappropriated funds or the liability resulting from such fraud or willful
misconduct. 

  
 24 

 The Depositary undertakes, and any Registrar or Transfer Agent shall be required to undertake, to
perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Agreement, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Agreement against the Depositary or any Registrar or Transfer Agent. 

The Depositary, its parent, its affiliates and its Subsidiaries, any Depositary’s Agent and any Registrar or Transfer Agent may own, buy,
sell and deal in any class of securities of the Corporation and its affiliates and in Receipts or Depositary Shares or have a pecuniary interest in any transaction in which the Corporation or its affiliates may be interested or contract with or lend
money to any such Person or otherwise act as fully or as freely as if it were not the Depositary, the Depositary’s parent, affiliate or Subsidiary or the Depositary’s Agent or the Registrar hereunder. The Depositary may also act as
trustee, transfer agent or registrar of any of the securities of the Corporation and its affiliates. 
 It is intended that none of the
Depositary, its agents and any Registrar, acting as a Depositary’s Agent or Registrar, as the case may be, shall be deemed to be an “issuer” of the securities under federal securities laws or applicable state securities laws, it being
expressly understood and agreed that the Depositary, any Depositary’s Agent and the Registrar are acting only in a ministerial capacity as Depositary or Registrar for the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock. 

The Corporation agrees that is has previously or will register the offer and sale of the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock and the
Depositary Shares in accordance with all applicable securities laws. 
 None of the Depositary, its officers, directors, employees or agents
and the Registrar makes any representation or has any responsibility as to the validity of (a) the registration statement pursuant to which the offer and sale of the Depositary Shares and Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock are registered under
the Securities Act, (b) the Articles of Incorporation, (c) the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock, (d) the Depositary Shares, (e) the Receipts (except for its counter-signatures thereon), (f) any instruments referred to in any of the foregoing or
(g) as to the correctness of any statement made in any of the foregoing. 
 The Depositary assumes no responsibility for the correctness of
the description that appears in the Receipts. Notwithstanding any other provision herein or in the Receipts, the Depositary makes no warranties or representations as to the validity or genuineness of any Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock at any
time deposited with the Depositary hereunder or of the Depositary Shares, as to the validity or sufficiency of this Agreement, as to the value of the Depositary Shares or as to any right, title or interest of the Record Holders of Receipts in and to
the Depositary Shares. The Depositary shall not be accountable for the use or application by the Corporation of the Depositary Shares or the Receipts or the proceeds thereof. 

  
 25 

 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Depositary shall not be liable for any
incidental, indirect, special or consequential damages of any nature whatsoever, including, but not limited to, loss of anticipated profits, occasioned by breach of any provision of this Agreement even if apprised of the possibility of such damages.

 Neither Computershare nor the Depositary, as applicable, shall have any liability for interest on any monies at any time received by it
pursuant to any of the provisions of this Agreement or of the Receipts, the Depositary Shares or the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock, nor shall Computershare or the Depositary, as applicable, be obligated to segregate such monies from other
monies held by it, except as required by applicable law. Neither Computershare nor the Depositary, as applicable, shall be responsible for advancing funds on behalf of the Corporation and shall have no duty or obligation to make any payments if
Computershare or the Depostiary, as applicable, has not timely received sufficient funds to make timely payments. 
 In the event the
Depositary, the Depositary’s Agent or any Registrar or Transfer Agent believes any ambiguity or uncertainty exists hereunder or in any notice, instruction, direction, request or other communication, paper or document received by the Depositary,
the Depositary’s Agent or any Registrar or Transfer Agent hereunder, or in the administration of any of the provisions of this Agreement, the Depositary shall deem it necessary or desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to
taking, omitting or suffering to take any action hereunder, the Depositary may, in its sole discretion upon written notice to the Corporation, refrain from taking any action and shall be fully protected and shall not be liable in any way to the
Corporation, any Record Holders of Receipts or any other Person or entity for refraining from taking such action, unless the Depositary receives written instructions or a certificate signed by the Corporation that eliminates such ambiguity or
uncertainty to the reasonable satisfaction of the Depositary, Depositary’s Agent, Registrar or Transfer Agent or that proves or establishes the applicable matter to the reasonable satisfaction of the Depositary, Depositary’s Agent,
Registrar or Transfer Agent. 
 The Depositary undertakes not to issue any Receipt other than to evidence the Depositary Shares that have
been delivered to, and are then on deposit with, the Depositary. The Depositary also undertakes not to sell, except as provided herein, pledge or lend Depositary Shares or shares of Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock held by it as Depositary.

 The obligations of the Corporation and the rights and benefits of the Depositary set forth in this Section 5.03 shall survive the
termination of this Agreement and any resignation or succession of any Depositary, Registrar, Transfer Agent or Depositary’s Agent. 

Section 5.04. Resignation and Removal of the Depositary; Appointment of Successor Depositary. The
Depositary may at any time resign as Depositary hereunder by delivering notice of its election to do so to the Corporation, such resignation to take effect upon the appointment of a successor Depositary and its acceptance of such appointment as
hereinafter provided. 

  
 26 

 The Depositary may at any time be removed by the Corporation by notice of such removal delivered
to the Depositary, such removal to take effect upon the appointment of a successor Depositary hereunder and its acceptance of such appointment as hereinafter provided. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Depositary’s resignation or removal under
this Section 5.04 will take effect no more than 90 days following the delivery of notice hereunder. 
 In case at any time the Depositary
acting hereunder shall resign or be removed, the Corporation shall, within 60 days after the delivery of the notice of resignation or removal, as the case may be, appoint a successor Depositary, which shall be a bank or trust company that (a) is not
an affiliate of the Corporation, (b) has its principal office in the United States of America and (c) has a combined capital and surplus, along with its affiliates, of at least $50,000,000. If no successor Depositary shall have been so appointed and
have accepted appointment within 60 days after delivery of such notice, the resigning or removed Depositary may, at the Corporation’s expense, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Depositary. Every
successor Depositary shall execute and deliver to its predecessor and to the Corporation an instrument in writing accepting its appointment hereunder, and thereupon such successor Depositary, without any further act or deed, shall become fully
vested with all the rights, powers, duties and obligations of its predecessor and for all purposes shall be the Depositary under this Agreement, and such predecessor, upon payment of all sums due it and on the written request of the Corporation,
shall promptly execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor all rights and powers of such predecessor hereunder, shall duly assign, transfer and deliver all right, title and interest in the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock
and any moneys, securities or other property held hereunder to such successor, and shall deliver to such successor Depositary a list of the Record Holders of all outstanding Receipts and such records, books and other information in its possession
relating thereto. Any successor Depositary shall promptly send notice of its appointment to the Record Holders of Receipts. 
 Any entity
into or with which the Depositary may be merged, consolidated or converted shall be the successor of the Depositary without the execution or filing of any document or any further act, and notice thereof shall not be required hereunder. Such
successor Depositary may authenticate the Receipts in the name of the predecessor Depositary or its own name as successor Depositary. 
 The
provisions of this Section 5.04 as they apply to the Depositary apply to the Registrar and Transfer Agent, as if specifically enumerated herein. 

Section 5.05. Corporate Notices and Reports. The Corporation agrees that it shall deliver to the
Depositary, and the Depositary shall, promptly after receipt thereof, transmit to the Record Holders of Receipts, in each case at the addresses recorded in the Depositary’s books, copies of all notices and reports (including, without
limitation, financial statements) required by law, by the rules of the NYSE or any other national securities exchange upon which the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock, the Depositary Shares or the Receipts are listed or by the Articles of
Incorporation, to be furnished to the Record Holders of Receipts. Such transmission will be at the Corporation’s expense and the Corporation will provide the Depositary with such number of copies of such documents as the Depositary may
reasonably 

  
 27 

 
request. In addition, the Depositary shall transmit to the Record Holders of Receipts at the Corporation’s expense, including applicable fees, such other documents as may be requested by the
Corporation. 
 Section 5.06. Indemnification by the Corporation. Subject to Section 5.03, the
Corporation shall indemnify the Depositary, any Depositary’s Agent and any Registrar or Transfer Agent (including each of their officers, directors, agents and employees) against, and hold each of them harmless from, any loss, damage, cost,
penalty, liability or expense (including the reasonable costs and expenses of defending itself) which may arise out of acts performed, suffered or omitted to be taken in connection with this Agreement and the Receipts by the Depositary, any
Registrar, any Transfer Agent or any of their respective agents (including any Depositary’s Agent) and any transactions or documents contemplated hereby, except for any liability arising out of gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith
on the respective parts of any such Person or Persons. 
 From time to time, the Corporation may provide the Depositary with instructions
concerning the services performed by the Depositary hereunder. In addition, at any time the Depositary may apply to any officer of the Corporation for instruction, and may consult with legal counsel for the Depositary or the Corporation with
respect to any matter arising in connection with the services to be performed by the Depositary under this Agreement. The Depositary and its agents and subcontractors shall not be liable and shall be indemnified by the Corporation for any action
taken or omitted by the Depositary in reliance upon any Corporation instructions or upon the advice or opinion of such counsel. The Depositary shall not be held to have notice of any change of authority of any person, until receipt of written
notice thereof from the Corporation. The obligations of the Corporation set forth in this Section 5.06 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and any resignation or succession of any Depositary, Registrar, Transfer Agent or
Depositary’s Agent. 
 Section 5.07. Fees, Charges and Expenses. The Corporation agrees promptly
to pay the Depositary the compensation to be agreed upon with the Corporation for all services rendered by the Depositary hereunder and to reimburse the Depositary for its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable counsel fees and
expenses) incurred by the Depositary without gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith on its part (or on the part of any agent or Depositary’s Agent) in connection with the services rendered by it (or such agent or Depositary’s
Agent) hereunder. The Corporation shall pay all charges of the Depositary in connection with the initial deposit of the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock and the initial issuance of the Depositary Shares and any change of the Mandatory
Convertible Preferred Stock in accordance with Section 4.06. The Corporation shall pay all transfer and other taxes and governmental charges arising solely from the existence of the depositary arrangements. The Record Holders shall not be
required to pay any transfer and other taxes and governmental charges relating to the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock, the Receipts or the Depositary Shares; provided that a Record Holder shall be required to pay any tax or duty that
may be payable relating to any issuance or delivery of shares of Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock or Common Stock or transfers or exchanges of Depositary Shares or Receipts, in each case, in a name other than the name of such Record
Holder. If, at the request of a Record Holder of Receipts, the Depositary 

  
 28 

 
incurs charges or expenses for which the Corporation is not otherwise liable hereunder, then such Record Holder shall be liable for such charges and expenses; provided, however,
that the Depositary may, at its sole option, request that the Corporation direct a Record Holder of a Receipt to prepay the Depositary any charge or expense the Depositary has been asked to incur at the request of such Record Holder of Receipts. The
Depositary shall present its statement for charges and expenses to the Corporation at such intervals as the Corporation and the Depositary may agree. 

Section 5.08. Tax Compliance. The Depositary, on its own behalf and on behalf of the Corporation, will
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 (a) any payments made with
respect to the Depositary Shares and Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock or (b) the issuance, delivery, holding, transfer or exercise of rights under the Receipts or the Depositary Shares. 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. 

The Depositary shall comply with any direction received from the Corporation with respect to the application of such requirements to
particular payments or holders or in other particular circumstances, and may for purposes of this Agreement rely on any such direction in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.03 hereof. 

The Depositary shall maintain all appropriate records documenting compliance with such requirements, and shall make such records available on
request to the Corporation or to its authorized representatives.

 Upon the termination of this
Agreement, the Corporation shall be discharged from all obligations under this Agreement except for its obligations to the Depositary, any Depositary’s Agent and any Registrar under Section 5.06 and 5.07.

CONVEYANCE AND ASSIGNMENT AGREEMENT

 

This Conveyance and Assignment Agreement (this “Agreement”), dated as of the 3rd day of October, 2016 (the “Closing Date”), is entered into by and between Georgia Natural Gas Company, a Georgia corporation, (“GNGC”) and Piedmont Energy Company, a North Carolina corporation (“Piedmont”).

 

WHEREAS, Piedmont and GNGC are each Members of SouthStar Energy Services, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“SouthStar”);

 

WHEREAS, Piedmont has granted GNGC certain options to purchase its Company Interest in SouthStar and GNGC has exercised one such option under Section 12.5(b) of the LLC Agreement to purchase all of Piedmont’s Company Interest (the “Percentage Interest”) as provided herein (the “Transaction”);

 

WHEREAS, Piedmont and GNGC intend that the Closing Date be contemporaneous and concurrent with the date of consummation of Piedmont’s Change in Control; and

 

WHEREAS, capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning(s) ascribed to them in the Second Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement of SouthStar dated as of September 1, 2013 (the “LLC Agreement”).

 

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the agreements contained in this Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which is hereby acknowledged, GNGC and Piedmont agree as follows:

 

ARTICLE 1

 

1.1 Conveyance.

 

(a) Piedmont hereby grants, sells, transfers, assigns and conveys to GNGC, its successors and assigns, for its and their own use forever, all right, title and interest in and to the Percentage Interest for one hundred sixty million dollars ($160,000,000.00) (the “Purchase Price”) in cash and other good and valuable consideration as set forth herein, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and GNGC hereby accepts the Percentage Interest as of the Closing Date (the “Closing”).

 

(b) The Closing will occur on the Closing Date. On the Closing Date in accordance with the instructions provided by Piedmont, GNGC shall wire, or shall cause to be wired, in immediately available funds the Purchase Price and all amounts pursuant to Section 1.3 below to Piedmont.

 

 

 

EXECUTION VERSION

 

TO HAVE AND TO HOLD the Percentage Interest unto GNGC, its successors and assigns, together with all the rights and appurtenances thereto belonging, subject, however, to the terms and conditions stated in this Agreement, forever.

 

1.2  Ownership of Percentage Interest and Disclaimer of Warranties.

 

(a)                           Other than (i) for restrictions under the LLC Agreement, Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and applicable state securities laws, Piedmont holds of record and owns beneficially all of the Percentage Interest, free and clear of any restrictions on transfer, taxes, liens, options, warrants, purchase rights, contracts, commitments, equities, claims, and demands; and (ii) with respect to the Transaction, Piedmont is not a party to any option, warrant, purchase right, or other contract or commitment that would require Piedmont to sell, transfer, or otherwise dispose of the Percentage Interest. On the Closing Date, GNGC will acquire from Piedmont good and marketable title to the Percentage Interest, free and clear of all liens, claims, and encumbrances.

 

(b)                              EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN SECTION 1.2(a) ABOVE, PIEDMONT IS CONVEYING THE PERCENTAGE INTEREST “AS IS,” WITHOUT REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, ALL OF WHICH PIEDMONT HEREBY DISCLAIMS, AS TO TITLE OR ANY OTHER MATTER WHATSOEVER.

 

(c)                               Piedmont and GNGC agree that the disclaimers contained in this Section 1.2 are “conspicuous” disclaimers. Any covenants implied by statute or law by the use of the words “grant,” “convey,” “bargain,” “sell,” “assign,” “transfer,” “deliver” or “set over” or any of them or any other words used in this Agreement are hereby expressly disclaimed, waived and negated.

 

1.3  Distribution of Company Income.  Concurrently with Piedmont receiving the Purchase Price for its Percentage Interest at Closing, SouthStar will distribute to Piedmont Piedmont’s share of unpaid and/or accrued Company Income and all other amounts due and owing to Piedmont through the Closing Date as indicated in the financial statements prepared by SouthStar as specified in Section 1.4 below. No other amounts shall be paid or distributed to Piedmont at Closing.

 

1.4  Financial Statements.

 

(a)                                To the extent reasonably practicable, no less than five (5) business days prior to the Closing Date, SouthStar shall prepare and deliver to Piedmont and GNGC unaudited preliminary financial statements for the period from January 1, 2016 through the end of the most recent calendar month preceding the Closing Date to assist with the proper implementation of this Agreement and the relevant portions of the LLC Agreement to the Transaction, including the distribution of Company Income as described in Section 1.3 of this Agreement.

 

(b)                                As soon as reasonably practicable after Closing, SouthStar shall cause the final 2016 financial statements for the period of January 1, 2016 through the Closing Date to be

EXECUTION VERSION

 

audited (the “Audited Stub Statements”) and delivered to Piedmont and GNGC; and Piedmont and GNGC agree to reconcile, and if necessary “true up,” the distribution of Company Income to Piedmont based on the Audited Stub Statements as soon as reasonably practicable after receipt thereof from SouthStar.

 

(c)                                 The financial statements specified in Sections 1.4 (a) and (b) above shall be prepared in accordance with the applicable provisions of the LLC Agreement, including Articles IV, X, and XI of the LLC Agreement. In connection with Section 1.3 above, this Section 1.4 and any other allocations or payments, following the Closing Date and continuing for a period of six (6) months after the date that SouthStar causes the Audited Stub Statements to be delivered to Piedmont and GNGC, Piedmont shall continue to have the same rights under Section 4.6 of the LLC Agreement as if it continued to be a Member.

 

1.5  Non-Solicitation of Employees.  Piedmont agrees, and at Closing will cause its parent company to agree, that neither Piedmont nor any of Piedmont’s Affiliates will solicit for employment any of those individuals employed by SouthStar listed on Exhibit A attached hereto (the “Covered SSE Employees”) for a period of thirty (30) months following the Closing Date; provided that, this shall not prevent Piedmont or its Affiliates or parent from (a) employing any SouthStar employee whose employment was terminated by SouthStar prior to commencement of employment discussions between Piedmont and such employee, and (b) placing any public advertisements or conducting any other form of general solicitation for employment that is not targeted at any of the Covered SSE Employees.

 

1.6  Release of Piedmont Option.  Piedmont hereby irrevocably and completely (a) releases and abandons the Piedmont C&I Option as defined in Section 7.4 of the LLC Agreement and (b) confirms that Piedmont has not exercised its option under Section 7.4 prior to the Closing.

(b)                                With respect to this Agreement, “Target Customers” shall have the same meaning as that set forth in Article I of the LLC Agreement, and the definition of “Retail Territory” in Article I of the LLC Agreement shall be revised to mean (i) the entire States of Georgia and Illinois, and (ii) in the State of Ohio, the certificated service territories of Vectren Energy, Dominion East Ohio, and Columbia Gas — Ohio as such certificated service territories exist as of the Closing Date.

 

(c)                                 Notwithstanding the foregoing, and as provided in Section 7.1(b) of the LLC Agreement, nothing shall preclude Piedmont or any of its present or future Affiliates from engaging in the purchase, transportation, supply, sale (and sales activities), marketing, storage and/or infrastructure development of liquefied natural gas, compressed natural gas and/or natural

gas vehicle facilities and/or filling stations. Provided further, and notwithstanding Section 7.1(d) of the LLC Agreement, Piedmont and its present and future Affiliates shall not be precluded from (i) acquiring a Person or entity that has as an ancillary (but not primary) part of its business operations engaged in the purchase, transportation and sale of natural gas on a non-regulated basis for Target Customers located in the Retail Territory or (ii) engaging in such transactions directly or indirectly necessary to meet its or their obligation to provide service as mandated by a regulatory body (including, without limitation, such transactions for the purchase, transportation, supply, sale or storage of natural gas as it or they customarily engage in in the normal course of business) and to manage its or their system needs.

 

1.8  Communications Program.  Piedmont and GNGC will agree on the language of any press release or other public communication about this Agreement or the Closing of the Transaction.  Piedmont and GNGC acknowledge that each of their parent companies may file a Current Report on Form 8-K and/or make other necessary disclosures to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission regarding the Transaction and that such filings and/or disclosures require no prior approval from the other party.

 

1.9  Regulatory Consents/Approvals.  Piedmont agrees to reasonably cooperate with GNGC and SouthStar in obtaining all regulatory approvals or consents necessary to consummate the Transaction, including without limitation approval by the Georgia Public Service Commission.
