Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, BNP Paribas Securities Corp., Citigroup Global Markets Inc., HSBC Securities (USA) Inc., Mizuho Securities USA Inc. and Scotia Capital (USA) Inc., as agent and/or principal under any Terms
Agreement (as defined in Section 1(a) below) (each an “Agent”, and collectively, the “Agents”), with respect to the issuance and sale from time to time by the Company, in the manner and subject to the terms and
conditions described below in this Distribution Agreement (this “Agreement”), of shares (the “Shares”) of common stock, $0.10 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), of the Company having an

below. 

 The Company has filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) a
registration statement on Form S-3 (No. 333-206257) that became automatically effective upon filing with the Commission on August 10, 2015 for the registration of the Shares and other securities of the Company under the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended, and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder (collectively, the “Act”); the Registration Statement (as defined below) sets forth the material terms of the offering, sale and plan of distribution of the
Shares and contains additional information concerning the Company and its business. Except where the context otherwise requires, “Registration Statement”, as used herein, means the registration statement, as amended at the time of
such registration statement’s effectiveness for purposes of Section 11 of the Act, as such section applies to the Agents, including (1) all documents filed as a part thereof or incorporated, or deemed to be incorporated, by reference
therein and (2) any information contained or incorporated by reference in a prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Act, to the extent such information is deemed, pursuant to Rule 430B or Rule 430C under the Act,
to be part of the registration statement at the effective time. Except where the context otherwise requires, “Basic Prospectus”, as used herein, means the prospectus dated August 10, 2015, filed as part of the Registration
Statement, including the documents incorporated by reference therein as of the date of such prospectus. Except where the context otherwise requires, “Prospectus Supplement”, as used herein, means the most recent prospectus
supplement relating to the Shares, to be filed by the Company with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Act on or before the second business day after the date of its first use in connection with a public offering or sale of Shares
pursuant hereto (or such earlier time as may be required under the Act), in the form furnished by the Company to the Agents in connection with the offering of the Shares. Except where the context otherwise requires, “Prospectus”, as
used herein, means the Prospectus Supplement (and any additional prospectus supplement prepared in accordance with the provisions of Sections 4(b) or 4(h) of this Agreement and filed in accordance with the provisions of Rule 424(b)) together with
the Basic Prospectus attached to or used with the Prospectus Supplement. “Permitted Free Writing Prospectuses”, as used herein, has the meaning set forth in Section 3(b). Any reference herein to the Registration Statement, the
Basic Prospectus, the Prospectus Supplement, the Prospectus or any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus shall, unless otherwise stated, be deemed to refer to and include the documents, if any, incorporated, or deemed to be incorporated, by reference
therein (the “Incorporated Documents”), including, unless the context otherwise requires, the documents, if any, filed as exhibits to such Incorporated Documents. Any reference herein to the terms “amend”,
“amendment” or “supplement” with respect to the Registration Statement, the Basic Prospectus, the Prospectus Supplement, the Prospectus or any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus shall, unless stated otherwise, be deemed to refer
to and include the filing of any document under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder (collectively, the “Exchange Act”) on or after the initial effective date of
the Registration Statement or the date of the Basic Prospectus, the Prospectus Supplement, the Prospectus or such Permitted Free Writing Prospectus, as the case may be, and deemed to be incorporated therein by reference. 

The Company and each Agent agree as follows: 

  
 2 

	 	1.	Issuance and Sale. 

  

	 	(a)	Upon the basis of the representations and warranties and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, on any Exchange Business Day (as defined below) selected by the Company, the Company and such Agent shall
enter into an agreement in accordance with Section 2 hereof regarding the number of Shares to be placed by such Agent, as agent, and the manner in which and other terms upon which such placement is to occur (each such transaction being referred
to as an “Agency Transaction” or a “Transaction”). Pursuant to an Agency Transaction, the Company may submit its orders to any Agent selected by the Company as the Agents’ representative in writing (the
“Direct Seller”) to sell Shares with respect to which the Direct Seller has agreed to act as agent, including Shares it has agreed to sell on behalf of other Agents. The Company may also offer to sell the Shares directly to an
Agent, as principal, in which event such parties will enter into a separate agreement (each, a “Terms Agreement”) in substantially the form of Exhibit E hereto (with such changes thereto as may be agreed upon by the Company and such
Agent to accommodate a transaction involving more than one Agent), relating to such sale in accordance with Section 2(g) of this Agreement. As used in this Agreement, (i) the “Term” shall be the period commencing on the
date hereof and ending on the earlier of (x) the date on which the Gross Sales Price of Shares issued and sold pursuant to this Agreement and any Terms Agreement is equal to the Maximum Amount and (y) the termination of this Agreement
pursuant to Section 8 or 9 hereof (the “Termination Date”), (ii) an “Exchange Business Day” means any day during the Term that is a trading day for the Exchange, and (iii) “Exchange”
means the New York Stock Exchange. 

  

	 	(b)	Subject to the terms and conditions set forth below, the Company appoints each Agent as agent in connection with the offer and sale of Shares in any Agency Transactions entered into hereunder. Each Agent will use its
respective commercially reasonable efforts to sell such Shares in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof and of the applicable Transaction Acceptance (as defined below). Neither the Company nor any Agent shall have any obligation to enter
into an Agency Transaction. The Company shall be obligated to issue and sell through the Agents, and each Agent shall be obligated to use its respective commercially reasonable efforts, consistent with its normal trading and sales practices and as
provided herein and in the applicable Transaction Acceptance, to place Shares issued by the Company only if and when the Company makes a Transaction Proposal (as defined below) to such Agent related to such an Agency Transaction and a Transaction
Acceptance related to such Agency Transaction has been delivered to the Company by such Agent as provided in Section 2 below. 

  
 3 

	 	(c)	Each Agent, as agent in any Agency Transaction, hereby covenants and agrees, severally and not jointly, not to make any sales of the Shares on behalf of the Company pursuant to this Agreement other than (i) by
means of ordinary brokers’ transactions between members of the Exchange that qualify for delivery of a Prospectus in accordance with Rule 153 under the Act and meet the definition of an “at the market offering” under Rule 415(a)(4)
under the Act (such transactions are hereinafter referred to as “At the Market Offerings”) and (ii) such other sales of the Shares on behalf of the Company in its capacity as agent of the Company as shall be agreed by the
Company and such Agent in writing. 

  

	 	(d)	If Shares are to be sold in an Agency Transaction in an At the Market Offering, the applicable Agent will confirm in writing to the Company the number of Shares sold on any Exchange Business Day and the related Gross
Sales Price and Net Sales Price (as each of such terms is defined in Section 2(b) below) no later than the opening of trading on the immediately following Exchange Business Day. 

 

	 	(e)	If the Company shall default on its obligation to deliver Shares to an Agent pursuant to the terms of any Agency Transaction or Terms Agreement, (i) the Company shall hold such Agent harmless against any loss,
claim or damage arising from or as a result of such default by the Company and (ii) notwithstanding such default, pay to such Agent any fee to which it would otherwise be entitled in connection with such sale. 

 

	 	(f)	The Company acknowledges and agrees that (i) there can be no assurance that an Agent will be successful in selling the Shares, (ii) no Agent shall incur any liability or obligation to the Company or any other
person or entity if it does not sell Shares for any reason other than a failure by such Agent to use its commercially reasonable efforts consistent with its normal trading and sales practices and applicable law and regulations to sell such Shares in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and (iii) no Agent shall be under any obligation to purchase Shares on a principal basis pursuant to this Agreement, except as may otherwise be specifically agreed by such Agent and the Company in a
Terms Agreement. 

  

	 	2.	Transaction Acceptances. 

  

	 	(a)	 The Company may, from time to time during the Term, propose to an Agent that they enter into an Agency Transaction, to be executed on a specified Exchange
Business Day or over a specified period of Exchange Business Days, which proposal shall be made to such Agent by any means permissible under Section 11 hereof and shall set forth the information below (each, a “Transaction
Proposal”). If such Agent agrees to the terms of such proposed Transaction, then such Agent shall promptly send to the Company by any means permissible under Section 11 hereof

  
 4 

	 	
a notice (each, a “Transaction Acceptance”), confirming the agreed terms of such proposed Transaction as set forth in such Transaction Proposal whereupon such Transaction shall
become a binding agreement between the Company and such Agent. Each Transaction Proposal shall specify: 

(i)    the Exchange Business Day(s) on which the Shares subject to such Transaction are intended to be sold
(each, a “Purchase Date”); 
 (ii)    the maximum number of Shares to be sold by such Agent
(the “Specified Number of Shares”) on, or over the course of, such Purchase Date(s); 

(iii)    if such Agent will be acting as the Direct Seller with respect to the Shares subject to such
Transaction; and 
 (iv)    the lowest price (if any) at which the Company is willing to sell Shares on each
such Purchase Date (each, a “Floor Price”). 
 The Company shall have responsibility for maintaining records with
respect to the aggregate dollar amount of Shares sold, or for otherwise monitoring the availability of Shares for sale under the Registration Statement. In the event that more than one Transaction Acceptance with respect to any Purchase Date(s) is
delivered by the applicable Agent to the Company, the latest Transaction Acceptance shall govern any sales of Shares for the relevant Purchase Date(s), except to the extent of any action occurring pursuant to a prior Transaction Acceptance and prior
to the delivery to the Company of the latest Transaction Acceptance. The Company or the applicable Agent may, upon notice to the other party hereto by any means permissible under Section 11 hereof, suspend or terminate the offering of the
Shares pursuant to any Transaction; provided, however, that such suspension or termination shall not affect or impair the parties’ respective obligations with respect to the Shares sold hereunder prior to the giving of such notice.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the terms of any Agency Transaction contemplate that Shares shall be sold on more than one Purchase Date, then the Company and the applicable Agent shall mutually agree to such additional terms and conditions as
they deem necessary in respect of such multiple Purchase Dates, and such additional terms and conditions shall be set forth in the relevant Transaction Proposal and confirmed by the relevant Transaction Acceptance and be binding to the same extent
as any other terms contained therein. 
  

	 	(b)	 The Purchase Date(s) of the Shares deliverable pursuant to any Transaction Acceptance shall be set forth in the relevant Transaction Proposal and confirmed by
the relevant Transaction Acceptance. An Agent’s commission for any Transaction shall be a percentage, not to exceed 1.50%, of the actual sales price of the Shares (the “Gross Sales 

  
 5 

 
Price”) sold through such Agent in such Transaction pursuant to this Agreement (the Gross Sales Price less such Agent’s commission is referred to herein at the “Net Sales
Price”) and such rate of compensation shall not apply when such Agent acts as principal, which terms will be separately agreed. 
  

	 	(c)	Payment of the Net Sales Price for Shares sold by the Company on any Purchase Date pursuant to a Transaction Acceptance shall be made to the Company by federal funds wire transfer to the account of the Company, the
details of which are set forth on Schedule III hereto, against delivery of such Shares to the applicable Agent’s account, or an account of such Agent’s designee, at The Depository Trust Company through its Deposit and Withdrawal at
Custodian System (“DWAC”), or by such other means of delivery as may be agreed to by the Company and such Agent. Such payment and delivery shall be made at or about 10:00 a.m., local time in New York, New York, on the third Exchange
Business Day (or such other day as may, from time to time, become standard industry practice for settlement of such a securities issuance) following each Purchase Date (each, a “Closing Date”). 

 

	 	(d)	If, as provided in the related Transaction Acceptance, a Floor Price has been agreed to by the parties with respect to a Purchase Date, and the applicable Agent thereafter determines and notifies the Company that the
Gross Sales Price for such Transaction would not be at least equal to such Floor Price, then the Company shall not be obligated to issue and sell through such Agent, and such Agent shall not be obligated to place, the Shares proposed to be sold
pursuant to such Transaction on such Purchase Date. 

  

	 	(e)	Under no circumstances shall the Gross Sales Price of the Shares sold pursuant to this Agreement and any Terms Agreements exceed the Maximum Amount. 

 

	 	(f)	If any party hereto has reason to believe that the exemptive provisions set forth in Rule 101(c)(1) of Regulation M under the Exchange Act are not satisfied with respect to the Shares, it shall promptly notify the
other parties hereto and sales of the Shares under this Agreement, any Transaction Acceptance or any Terms Agreement shall be suspended until that or other exemptive provisions have been satisfied in the judgment of each party. On or prior to the
delivery of a prospectus that is required (whether physically or through compliance with Rule 172 under the Act or any similar rule) in connection with the offering or sale of the Shares, the applicable Agent with respect to such sale of the Shares
shall calculate the average daily trading volume (as defined by Rule 100 of Regulation M under the Exchange Act) of the Common Stock based on market data provided by Bloomberg L.P. or such other sources as agreed upon by such Agent and the Company.

  
 6 

	 	(g)	(i) If the Company wishes to issue and sell the Shares pursuant to this Agreement but other than as set forth in Section 2(a) of this Agreement (each such sale, a “Placement”), it will notify the
applicable Agent of the proposed terms of such Placement. If such Agent, acting as principal, wishes to accept such proposed terms (which it may decline to do for any reason in its sole discretion) or, following discussions with the Company, wishes
to accept amended terms, such Agent and the Company will enter into a Terms Agreement setting forth the terms of such Placement. 

(ii) The terms set forth in a Terms Agreement will not be binding on the Company or an Agent unless and until the Company and such Agent have each
executed such Terms Agreement accepting all of the terms of such Terms Agreement. In the event of a conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of a Terms Agreement, the terms of such Terms Agreement will control. 

 

	 	(h)	Each sale of the Shares to an Agent in a Placement shall be made in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and a Terms Agreement, which will provide for the sale of such Shares to, and the purchase thereof by, such
Agent. A Terms Agreement may also specify certain provisions relating to the reoffering of such Shares by such Agent. The commitment of an Agent to purchase the Shares pursuant to any Terms Agreement shall be deemed to have been made on the basis of
the representations and warranties of the Company herein contained and shall be subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth. Any such Terms Agreement shall specify the number of the Shares to be purchased by the applicable Agent pursuant
thereto, the price to be paid to the Company for such Shares, any provisions relating to rights of, and default by, underwriters, if any, acting together with such Agent in the reoffering of the Shares, the time and date (each such time and date
being referred to herein as a “Time of Delivery”) and the place of delivery of and payment for such Shares. 

  

	 	(i)	The Company agrees that any offer to sell, any solicitation of an offer to buy, or any sales of Shares or any other equity security of the Company shall only be effected by or through only one of the Agents on any
single given day, and in no event by more than one Agent, and the Company shall in no event request that more than one Agent sell Shares on the same day; provided, however, that the foregoing limitation shall not apply to (i) the
exercise of any option, warrant, right or any conversion privilege set forth in the instrument governing such security or (ii) sales solely to employees or security holders of the Company or its subsidiaries, or to a trustee or other person
acquiring such securities for the accounts of such persons. 

  

	 	(j)	 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Company shall not offer, sell or deliver, or request the offer or sale, of any Shares

  
 7 

	 	
pursuant to this Agreement (whether in a Transaction or a Placement) and, by notice to each Agent given by telephone (confirmed promptly by email), shall cancel any instructions for the offer or
sale of any Shares, and no Agent shall be obligated to, and if so notified by the Company shall not, offer or sell any Shares, (i) during any period in which the Company is in possession of material non-public information or (ii) at any
time from and including the date on which the Company shall issue a press release containing, or shall otherwise publicly announce, its earnings, revenues or other results of operations for a quarterly or annual period (an “Earnings
Announcement”) through and including the time that is 24 hours after the time that the Company files a Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or an Annual Report on Form 10-K that includes consolidated financial statements as of and for the same
period or periods, as the case may be, covered by such Earnings Announcement. 

 3.    Representations and
Warranties of the Company. The Company represents and warrants to each Agent, on and as of (i) the date hereof, (ii) each date on which the Company receives a Transaction Acceptance (a “Time of Acceptance”),
(iii) each Time of Sale (as defined below) and (iv) each Closing Date (each such date listed in (i) through (iv), a “Representation Date”) that: 

 

	 	(a)	 There is no order preventing or suspending the use of the Registration Statement or the Prospectus; the Registration Statement complied when it initially
became effective, complies as of the date hereof and, as amended or supplemented, at each Representation Date will comply, in all material respects, with the requirements of the Act; the conditions to the use of Form S-3 in connection with the
offering and sale of the Shares as contemplated hereby have been satisfied; the Registration Statement meets, and the offering and sale of the Shares as contemplated hereby comply with, the requirements of Rule 415 under the Act (including, without
limitation, Rule 415(a)(5)); the Prospectus complied or will comply, at the time it was or will be filed with the Commission, and will comply, as then amended or supplemented, as of each Representation Date, in all material respects, with the
requirements of the Act; the Registration Statement did not, as of the time of its initial effectiveness, and does not or will not, as then amended or supplemented, as of each Representation Date, contain an untrue statement of a material fact or
omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; as of each Representation Date, the Prospectus, as then amended or supplemented, together with all of the then issued Permitted
Free Writing Prospectuses, if any, will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
misleading; provided,  

  
 8 

	 	
however, that the Company makes no representation or warranty with respect to any statement contained in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus
in reliance upon and in conformity with information concerning the Agents and furnished in writing by or on behalf of the Agents expressly for use in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or such Permitted Free Writing Prospectus, which
consists of the information set forth on Schedule II hereto (the “Agent Information”). “Time of Sale” means, (i) with respect to each offering of Shares pursuant to this Agreement, the time of the
Agents’ initial entry into contracts with investors for the sale of such Shares and (ii) with respect to each offering of Shares pursuant to any relevant Terms Agreement, the time of sale of such Shares. 

 

	 	(b)	Prior to the execution of this Agreement, the Company has not, directly or indirectly, offered or sold any of the Shares by means of any “prospectus” (within the meaning of the Act) or used any
“prospectus” (within the meaning of the Act) in connection with the offer or sale of the Shares, in each case other than the Basic Prospectus. The Company represents and agrees that, unless it obtains the prior consent of the Agents, until
the termination of this Agreement, it has not made and will not make any offer relating to the Shares that would constitute an “issuer free writing prospectus”, as defined in Rule 433 under the Act, or that would otherwise constitute a
“free writing prospectus”, as defined in Rule 405 under the Act. Any such free writing prospectus relating to the Shares consented to by the Agents is hereinafter referred to as a “Permitted Free Writing Prospectus”. The
Company represents that it has complied and will comply in all material respects with the requirements of Rule 433 under the Act applicable to any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus, including timely filing with the Commission where required,
legending and record keeping. The conditions set forth in one or more of subclauses (i) through (iv), inclusive, of Rule 433(b)(1) under the Act are satisfied, and the registration statement relating to the offering of the Shares contemplated
hereby, as initially filed with the Commission, includes a prospectus that, other than by reason of Rule 433 or Rule 431 under the Act, satisfies the requirements of Section 10 of the Act; neither the Company nor the Agents are disqualified, by
reason of subsection (f) or (g) of Rule 164 under the Act, from using, in connection with the offer and sale of the Shares, “free writing prospectuses” (as defined in Rule 405 under the Act) pursuant to Rules 164 and 433 under
the Act; the Company is not an “ineligible issuer” (as defined in Rule 405 under the Act) as of each eligibility determination date for purposes of Rules 164 and 433 under the Act with respect to the offering of the Shares contemplated by
the Registration Statement. 

  

	 	(c)	 The Incorporated Documents, when they were filed with the Commission, conformed in all material respects to the requirements of the Act or the Exchange Act,
as applicable, and none of such documents contained an 

  
 9 

	 	
untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they
were made, not misleading; and any further documents so filed and incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus, when such documents become effective or are filed with the
Commission, as the case may be, will conform in all material respects to the requirements of the Act or the Exchange Act, as applicable. 

  

	 	(d)	The consolidated financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries and the related notes thereto included or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus and any Permitted Free Writing
Prospectus comply in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the Act and the Exchange Act, as applicable, and present fairly the financial position of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries as of the dates indicated and the
results of their operations and the changes in their cash flows for the periods specified; such financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) applied on a consistent
basis throughout the periods covered thereby, except as otherwise disclosed in the financial statement footnotes, and the supporting schedules included or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus and any Permitted Free
Writing Prospectus present fairly the information required to be stated therein; the other financial information included or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus and any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus has been
derived from the accounting records of the Company and its subsidiaries and presents fairly the information shown thereby; and any pro forma financial information and the related notes thereto included or incorporated by reference in the
Registration Statement, the Prospectus and any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus have been prepared in accordance with the applicable requirements of the Act and the Exchange Act, as applicable, and the assumptions underlying such pro forma
financial information are reasonable and are included or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus and any such Permitted Free Writing Prospectus. 

 

	 	(e)	 Since the date of the most recent financial statements of the Company included or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus and
any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus, (i) no material change in the capital stock or long-term debt of the Company or any of its subsidiaries has occurred, (ii) no dividend or distribution of any kind has been declared, set aside for
payment, paid or made by the Company on any class of capital stock, (iii) there has not been any material adverse change, nor any development that would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse change, in or affecting the business,
properties, management, financial position, results of operations or prospects of the 

  
 10 

	 	
Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, (iv) neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries has entered into any transaction or agreement that is material to the Company and its
subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or incurred any liability or obligation, direct or contingent, that is material to the Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, and (v) neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries has sustained any
loss or interference with its business from fire, explosion, flood or other calamity, whether or not covered by insurance, or from any labor disturbance or dispute or any action, order or decree of any court or arbitrator or governmental or
regulatory authority that, in the case of this clause (v), individually or in the aggregate, has had or would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect (as defined in Section 3(f)), except, in each case (i) through (v), as
otherwise disclosed in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus. 

  

	 	(f)	The Company and each of its Identified Subsidiaries (as defined below) have been duly organized and are validly existing and in good standing under the laws of their respective jurisdictions of organization, are duly
qualified to do business and are in good standing in each jurisdiction in which their respective ownership or lease of property or the conduct of their respective businesses requires such qualification, and have all power and authority necessary to
own or hold their respective properties and to conduct the businesses in which they are engaged, except where the failure to be so qualified, in good standing or have such power or authority would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a
material adverse effect on the business, properties, management, financial position, results of operations or prospects of the Company and its subsidiaries taken as a whole (a “Material Adverse Effect”). As used in this Agreement,
“Identified Subsidiary” means the subsidiaries listed in Schedule I to this Agreement. The Company does not have any significant subsidiaries that are not listed on Schedule I hereto. 

 

	 	(g)	 The Company has an authorized capitalization as set forth in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus and any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus; all the
outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company have been duly and validly authorized and issued and are fully paid and non-assessable and are not subject to any pre-emptive or similar rights; except as described in or expressly contemplated by
the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus, there are no outstanding rights (including, without limitation, pre-emptive rights), warrants or options to acquire, or instruments convertible into or exchangeable
for, any shares of capital stock or other equity interests in the Company or any of its subsidiaries, nor any contracts, commitments, agreements, understandings or arrangements of any kind relating to the issuance of any capital stock of the Company
or any such subsidiary, any such convertible or exchangeable securities or any such rights, warrants or options; the capital stock of the Company conforms in all material 

  
 11 

	 	
respects to the description thereof contained in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus and any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus; and all the outstanding shares of capital stock or other
equity interests of each Identified Subsidiary of the Company have been duly and validly authorized and issued, are fully paid and non-assessable (except, in the case of any foreign subsidiary, for directors’ qualifying shares) and are owned
directly or indirectly by the Company, free and clear of any lien, charge, encumbrance, security interest, restriction on voting or transfer or any other claim of any third party (except as otherwise described in the Registration Statement, the
Prospectus or any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus). 

  

	 	(h)	The Company has full right, power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and any Terms Agreement and perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder; and all action required to be taken for the due and
proper authorization, execution and delivery by it of this Agreement and any Terms Agreement and the consummation by it of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby has been duly and validly taken (or, in the case of any Terms Agreement, such
action will have been duly and validly authorized), subject, in the case of the issuance and sale of Shares, to the delivery of a Transaction Proposal by the persons specified in the resolutions of the pricing committee of the Company’s board

and no event has occurred that, with notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute such a default, in the due performance or observance of any 

  
 12 

	 	
term, covenant or condition contained in any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement or other agreement or instrument to which the Company or any of its subsidiaries is a party or by

court or arbitrator or governmental or regulatory authority, except, in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) above, for any such default or violation that would not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material
Adverse Effect.

the Shares by FINRA, (G) the fees and disbursements of counsel to the Company and (H) the performance of the Company’s other obligations hereunder; provided that the Agents shall be responsible for any transfer taxes on resale
of Shares by the Agents, any costs and expenses associated with the sale and marketing of the Shares and fees of the Agents’ counsel other than as specifically provided above or elsewhere in this Agreement. 

(ii) If Shares having an aggregate Gross Sales Price of $100,000,000 or more have not been offered and sold under this Agreement and all Terms
Agreements by December 31, 2015 (or such earlier date at which the Company terminates this Agreement), the Company shall reimburse the Agents for all of the Agents’ out-of-pocket expenses, including the

  
 25 

 
reasonable fees and disbursements of a single counsel for the Agents incurred by the Agents in connection with the offering contemplated by this Agreement; provided that the Company will
not be obligated to reimburse any expenses pursuant to this clause 4(l)(ii) in excess of $350,000. 
  

	 	(m)	The Company will not, and each Agent covenants that it will not, distribute any offering material in connection with the offer and sale of the Shares, other than the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, any Permitted
Free Writing Prospectus and other materials permitted by the Act or the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. 

  

	 	(n)	During each period commencing on the date of each Transaction Proposal and ending after the close of business on the Purchase Date for the related Transaction, the Company will not (i) offer, pledge, announce the
intention to sell, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any shares of
its Common Stock or any securities convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable for, such shares or (ii) enter into any swap or other agreement that transfers, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of such
shares, whether any such transaction described in clause (i) or (ii) above is to be settled by delivery of shares or such other securities, in cash or otherwise, without the prior written consent of the applicable Agent with respect to
such Transaction, other than the Shares to be sold hereunder and any securities of the Company issued pursuant to, or upon the exercise or conversion of any securities of the Company that are outstanding at the time such Transaction Proposal is
delivered and issued pursuant to, the Company’s equity incentive plans disclosed in the Prospectus. 

  

	 	(o)	The Company will, pursuant to reasonable procedures developed in good faith, retain copies of each Permitted Free Writing Prospectus that is not filed with the Commission in accordance with Rule 433 under the Act.

  

	 	(p)	To use its reasonable efforts to cause the Shares to be listed on the Exchange. 

  

	 	(q)	That it consents to each Agent trading in the Common Stock for such Agent’s own account and for the account of its clients at the same time as sales of the Shares occur pursuant to this Agreement.

  

	 	(r)	 If immediately prior to the third anniversary (the “Renewal Deadline”) of the initial effective date of the Registration Statement, the
aggregate Gross Sales Price of Shares sold by the Company is less than the Maximum Amount and this Agreement has not expired or been terminated, the Company will, prior to the Renewal Deadline, file, if it has not already done so and is eligible to
do so, a new automatic shelf 

  
 26 

	 	
registration statement relating to the Shares, in a form satisfactory to the Agents. If the Company is no longer eligible to file an automatic shelf registration statement, the Company will,
prior to the Renewal Deadline, if it has not already done so, file a new shelf registration statement relating to the Shares, in a form satisfactory to the Agents, and will use its best efforts to cause such registration statement to be declared
effective within 60 days after the Renewal Deadline. The Company will take all other action necessary or appropriate to permit the issuance and sale of the Shares to continue as contemplated in the expired registration statement relating to the
Shares. References herein to the Registration Statement shall include such new automatic shelf registration statement or such new shelf registration statement, as the case may be. 

5.    Execution of Agreement.    Each Agent’s obligation to execute this Agreement shall be
subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions in connection with, and on the intended date of the execution of, this Agreement:

	 	(b)	the Agents shall have received the favorable opinion of Cravath, Swaine & Moore LLP, special counsel for the Agents, as to the matters set forth in Exhibit D hereto. 

6.    Additional Covenants of the Company.    The Company further covenants and agrees with each Agent
as follows: 
  

	 	(a)	Each Transaction Proposal made by the Company that is accepted by an Agent by means of a Transaction Acceptance and each execution and delivery by the Company of a Terms Agreement shall be deemed to be (i) an
affirmation that the representations and warranties of the Company herein contained and contained in any certificate delivered to the Agents pursuant hereto are true and correct at the Time of Acceptance or the date of such Terms Agreement, as the
case may be, and (ii) an undertaking that such representations and warranties will be true and correct on any Time of Sale, any Closing Date and at the time of delivery to the applicable Agent of Shares pursuant to the Transaction Proposal and
Transaction Acceptance or the Time of Delivery, as applicable, as though made at and as of each such time (it being understood that such representations and warranties shall relate to the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or any Permitted Free
Writing Prospectus as amended and supplemented to the time of such Transaction Acceptance or Terms Agreement, as the case may be). 

  

	 	(b)	 Each time that (i) the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus shall be amended or supplemented (including,
except as noted in the proviso at the end of this subsection (b), by the filing of any Incorporated Document, but excluding any prospectus supplement filed pursuant to Section 4(b) hereof) or (ii) the Shares are delivered to an Agent
pursuant to a Terms Agreement, in each case, the Company shall, unless the Agents agree otherwise, furnish or cause to be furnished to the Agents forthwith a certificate, dated the date of filing with the Commission or the date of effectiveness of
such amendment or supplement, as applicable, as to the matters set forth in Exhibit A hereto at the time of the filing or effectiveness of such amendment or supplement, as applicable, as though made at and as of such time (except that such
statements shall be deemed to relate to the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus as amended and supplemented to such time) or, in lieu of such certificate, a certificate of the same tenor as the
certificate referred to in Section 5(a)(i) hereof, modified as necessary to relate to the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus as amended and supplemented to the time of delivery of such certificate;
provided, however, that the Company will not be required to furnish such a 

  
 28 

	 	
certificate to the Agents in connection with the filing of a Current Report on Form 8-K unless (A) such Current Report on Form 8-K is filed at any time during which either a
Transaction Acceptance is binding or a prospectus relating to the Shares is required to be delivered under the Act and (B) the Agents have reasonably requested such a certificate based upon the event or events reported in such Current Report on
Form 8-K. 

  

	 	(c)	Each time that (i) the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus shall be amended or supplemented (including, except as noted in the proviso at the end of this subsection (c),
by the filing of any Incorporated Document, but excluding any prospectus supplement filed pursuant to Section 4(b) hereof) or (ii) the Shares are delivered to an Agent pursuant to a Terms Agreement, in each case, the Company shall, unless
the Agents agree otherwise, furnish or cause to be furnished forthwith to the Agents and to counsel for the Agents the written opinions of (A) Jones Walker LLP, special counsel for the Company, and (B) the General Counsel of the Company, a
Deputy or Assistant General Counsel of the Company or other counsel satisfactory to the Agents, dated the date of filing with the Commission or the date of effectiveness of such amendment or supplement, as applicable, in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to the Agents, of the same tenor as the opinions referred to in Section 5(a)(iii) and Section 5(a)(ii) hereof, respectively, but modified as necessary to relate to the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or any
Permitted Free Writing Prospectus as amended and supplemented to the time of delivery of such opinions or, in lieu of such opinions, counsel last furnishing such opinions to the Agents shall furnish the Agents with letters substantially to
the effect that the Agents may rely on such last opinions to the same extent as though they were dated the date of such letters authorizing reliance (except that statements in such last opinions shall be deemed to relate to the Registration
Statement, the Prospectus or any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus as amended and supplemented to the time of delivery of such letters authorizing reliance); provided, however, that the Company will not be required to furnish such opinions to
the Agents in connection with the filing of a Current Report on Form 8-K unless (1) such Current Report on Form 8-K is filed at any time during which either a Transaction Acceptance is binding or a prospectus relating to the Shares is required
to be delivered under the Act and (2) the Agents have reasonably requested such opinions based upon the event or events reported in such Current Report on Form 8-K. 

 

	 	(d)	 Each time that (i) the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus shall be amended or supplemented (including,
except as noted in the proviso at the end of this subsection (d), by the filing of any Incorporated Document, but excluding any prospectus supplement filed pursuant to Section 4(b) hereof) or (ii) the Shares are delivered to an Agent
pursuant to a Terms Agreement, in each case, the Company shall, unless the Agents agree otherwise, cause Ernst & Young 

  
 29 

	 	
LLP promptly to furnish to the Agents a letter, dated the date of filing with the Commission or the date of effectiveness of such amendment or supplement, as applicable, of the same tenor as the
letter referred to in Section 5(a)(iv) hereof, but modified to relate to the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus as amended and supplemented to the date of such letter; provided, however, that
the Company will not be required cause Ernst & Young LLP to furnish such letter to the Agents in connection with the filing of a Current Report on Form 8-K unless (A) such Current Report on Form 8-K is filed at any time during which
either a Transaction Acceptance is binding or a prospectus relating to the Shares is required to be delivered under the Act and (B) the Agents have reasonably requested such a letter based upon the event or events reported in such Current
Report on Form 8-K. 

  

	 	(e)	To disclose in its quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, in its annual report on Form 10-K and/or, in prospectus supplements, the number of the Shares sold through the Agents under this Agreement, the net proceeds to the
Company from the sale of the Shares and the compensation paid by the Company with respect to sales of the Shares pursuant to this Agreement during the relevant quarter. 

 

	 	(f)	The Company shall reasonably cooperate with any reasonable due diligence review requested by the Agents or the Agents’ counsel from time to time in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby or any Terms
Agreement. 

 7.    Conditions of the Agents’ Obligation.    Each Agent’s
obligation to solicit purchases on an agency basis for the Shares or otherwise take any action pursuant to a Transaction Acceptance and to purchase the Shares pursuant to any Terms Agreement shall be subject to the satisfaction of the following
conditions: 
  

	 	(a)	At the Time of Acceptance, at the time of the commencement of trading on the Exchange on the Purchase Date and at the time of closing on the Closing Date or, with respect to a transaction pursuant to a Terms Agreement,
at the Time of Sale and at the Time of Delivery: 

 (i)    The representations and warranties on
the part of the Company herein contained or contained in any certificate of an officer or officers of the Company delivered pursuant to the provisions hereof shall be true and correct in all respects. 

(ii)    The Company shall have performed and observed its covenants and other obligations hereunder and/or under
any Terms Agreement, as the case may be, in all material respects. 
 (iii)    With respect to an Agency
Transaction, from the Time of Acceptance until the Closing Date, or, with respect to a transaction 

  
 30 

 
pursuant to a Terms Agreement, from the Time of Sale until the Time of Delivery, trading in the Common Stock on the Exchange shall not have been suspended. 

(iv)    From the date of this Agreement, no event or condition of a type described in Section 3(e) hereof
shall have occurred or shall exist, which event or condition is not described in any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus (excluding any amendment or supplement thereto) or the Prospectus (excluding any amendment or supplement thereto) and the effect
of which in the judgment of the Agents makes it impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the offering, sale or delivery of the Shares on the Closing Date or at the Time of Delivery, as the case may be, on the terms and in the manner contemplated
by this Agreement or any Terms Agreement, as the case may be, any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus and the Prospectus. 

(v)    The Shares to be issued pursuant to the Transaction Acceptance or pursuant to a Terms Agreement, as
applicable, shall have been approved for listing on the Exchange, subject only to notice of issuance. 

(vi)    (A) No action shall have been taken and no statute, rule, regulation or order shall have been
enacted, adopted or issued by any federal, state or foreign governmental or regulatory authority that would, as of the Closing Date or as of the Time of Delivery, as the case may be, prevent the issuance or sale of the Shares and (B) no
injunction or order of any federal, state or foreign court shall have been issued that would, as of the Closing Date or as of the Time of Delivery, as the case may be, prevent the issuance or sale of the Shares. 

(vii)    (A) No order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement shall be in effect, and no
proceeding for such purpose or pursuant to Section 8A under the Act shall be pending before or threatened by the Commission; (B) the Prospectus and each Permitted Free Writing Prospectus shall have been timely filed with the Commission
under the Act (in the case of any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus, to the extent required by Rule 433 under the Act); (C) all requests by the Commission for additional information shall have been complied with to the satisfaction of the
Agents; and (D) no suspension of the qualification of the Shares for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, and no initiation or threatening of any proceedings for any of such purposes, will have occurred and be in effect at the time of a
Transaction Acceptance. 
 (viii)    No amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement, the Prospectus
or any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus shall have been filed to which the Agents shall have reasonably objected in writing. 

  
 31 

 (ix)    Subsequent to the relevant Time of Acceptance or, in the
case of a Placement, subsequent to execution of the applicable Terms Agreement, (A) no downgrading shall have occurred in the rating accorded any debt securities or preferred equity securities of or guaranteed by the Company or any of its
subsidiaries by any “nationally recognized statistical rating organization”, as such term is defined by the Commission for purposes of Section 3(a)(62) of the Exchange Act and (B) no such organization shall have publicly
announced that it has under surveillance or review, or has changed its outlook with respect to, its rating of any debt securities or preferred equity securities of or guaranteed by the Company or any of its subsidiaries (other than an announcement
with positive implications of a possible upgrading) in each case that has not been described in any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus issued prior to any related Time of Sale. 

 

	 	(b)	At every date specified in Sections 6(b), 6(c) and 6(d) hereof and on such other dates as reasonably requested by the Agents, the Agents shall have received the officer’s certificates, opinions of counsel and
accountants’ letters provided for under Sections 6(b), 6(c) and 6(d), respectively. 

  

	 	8.	Termination by the Agents. 

  

	 	(a)	If the solicitation of purchases on an agency basis of the Shares, as contemplated by this Agreement, is not carried out by any Agent for any reason permitted under this Agreement or if such sale is not carried out
because the Company is unable to comply in all material respects with any of the terms of this Agreement or any Terms Agreement, the Company shall not be under any obligation or liability under this Agreement to such Agent (except to the extent
provided in Sections 4(l) and 10 hereof) and such Agent shall be under no obligation or liability to the Company under this Agreement (except to the extent provided in Section 10 hereof) or to one another hereunder. 

 

	 	(b)	Each Agent may terminate this Agreement with respect to itself for any reason upon giving prior written notice to the Company. Any such termination shall be without liability of any party to any other party, except that
the provisions of Sections 4(g) and 4(i) (to the extent any Shares have been sold pursuant to this Agreement) and Sections 4(l) and 10 hereof shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding such termination. 

 

	 	(c)	 In the case of any purchase by an Agent pursuant to a Terms Agreement, the obligations of such Agent pursuant to such Terms Agreement shall be subject to
termination at any time at or prior to the Time of Delivery, if, (a) since the time of execution of the Terms Agreement or the respective dates as of which information is given in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus and any Permitted
Free Writing Prospectus, (i) trading generally shall have been materially suspended or materially limited on or 

  
 32 

	 	
by, as the case may be, either the Exchange or the NASDAQ Global Select Market, (ii) trading of any securities of the Company shall have been suspended on any exchange or in any over-the
counter market, (iii) a general moratorium on commercial banking activities in New York shall have been declared by either Federal or New York State authorities, (iv) there shall have occurred any attack on, or outbreak or escalation of
hostilities or act of terrorism involving, the United States, or any change in financial markets or any calamity or crisis that, in each case, in such Agent’s judgment, is material and adverse or (v) any material disruption of settlements
of securities or clearance services in the United States that would materially impair settlement and clearance with respect to the Shares and (b) in the case of any of the events specified in clauses (a)(i) through (v), such event singly or
together with any other such event specified in clauses (a)(i) through (v) makes it, in such Agent’s judgment, impracticable to market the Shares on the terms and in the manner contemplated in the Prospectus. If such Agent elects to
terminate its obligations pursuant to this paragraph, the Company shall be notified promptly in writing. 

9.    Termination by Company.    The Company may terminate this Agreement in its sole discretion at any
time upon prior written notice to the Agents; provided that, with respect to any pending sale through a Direct Seller, the obligations of the Company, including, without limitation, the provisions of Section 1(e), shall remain in full
force and effect notwithstanding such termination. 
 10.    Indemnity and Contribution. 

 

	 	(a)	 The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Agent, each Agent’s affiliates, and the directors and officers of each Agent and each Agent’s
affiliates, and each person, if any, who controls such Agent within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including, without
limitation, reasonable out of pocket legal fees and other expenses incurred in connection with any suit, action or proceeding or any claim asserted, as such fees and expenses are incurred) that arise out of, or are based upon, (i) any untrue
statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement or caused by any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the
statements therein not misleading or (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto), any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus (or any amendment or
supplement thereto) or caused by any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, in each case except
insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities arise out of, or are based upon, any untrue 

  
 33 

	 	
statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with any Agent Information, it being understood and agreed that the only such information
furnished by the Agents consists of the information described as such in subsection (b) below. 

  

	 	(b)	Each Agent agrees, severally and not jointly, in proportion to the commissions the Agent is entitled to receive with respect to the sale of the Shares, to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, its
officers who signed the Registration Statement and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act to the same extent as the indemnity set forth in paragraph
(a) above, but only with respect to any losses, claims, damages or liabilities that arise out of, or are based upon, any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with any
information relating to the Agents furnished to the Company in writing by the Agents expressly for use in the Registration Statement, the Basic Prospectus, the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) or any Permitted Free Writing
Prospectus, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by the Agents consists of the information set forth on Schedule II attached hereto. 

 

	 	(c)	 If any suit, action, proceeding (including any governmental or regulatory investigation), claim or demand shall be brought or asserted against any person in
respect of which indemnification may be sought pursuant to either paragraph (a) or (b) above, such person (the “Indemnified Person”) shall promptly notify the person against whom such indemnification may be sought (the
“Indemnifying Person”) in writing; provided that the failure to notify the Indemnifying Person shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have under this Section 10 except to the extent that it has been
materially prejudiced (through the forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses) by such failure; and provided, further, that the failure to notify the Indemnifying Person shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have to an
Indemnified Person otherwise than under this Section 10. If any such proceeding shall be brought or asserted against an Indemnified Person and it shall have notified the Indemnifying Person thereof, the Indemnifying Person shall retain counsel
reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person (who shall not, without the consent of the Indemnified Person, be counsel to the Indemnifying Person) to represent the Indemnified Person and any others entitled to indemnification pursuant to this
Section 10 that the Indemnifying Person may designate in such proceeding and shall pay the fees and expenses of such counsel related to such proceeding, as incurred. In any such proceeding, any Indemnified Person shall have the right to retain
its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Person unless (i) the Indemnifying Person and the Indemnified Person shall have mutually agreed to the contrary; (ii) the Indemnifying
Person 

  
 34 

	 	
has failed within a reasonable time to retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person; (iii) the Indemnified Person shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal
defenses available to it that are different from or in addition to those available to the Indemnifying Person; or (iv) the named parties in any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the Indemnifying Person and the
Indemnified Person and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. It is understood and agreed that the Indemnifying Person shall not, in connection with any
proceeding or related proceeding in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for all Indemnified Persons, and that all such fees and expenses shall be paid or
reimbursed as they are incurred. Any such separate firm for the Agents, their affiliates, directors and officers and any control persons of the Agents shall be designated in writing by the Agents or, if applicable, the Direct Seller, and any such
separate firm for the Company, its directors, its officers who signed the Registration Statement and any control persons of the Company shall be designated in writing by the Company. The Indemnifying Person shall not be liable for any settlement of
any proceeding effected without its written consent, but, if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the Indemnifying Person agrees to indemnify each Indemnified Person from and against any loss or liability by
reason of such settlement or judgment. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any time an Indemnified Person shall have requested that an Indemnifying Person reimburse the Indemnified Person for fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated by
this paragraph, the Indemnifying Person shall be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent if (A) such settlement is entered into more than 30 days after receipt by the Indemnifying Person of such request
and (B) the Indemnifying Person shall not have reimbursed the Indemnified Person in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement. No Indemnifying Person shall, without the written consent of the Indemnified Person, effect
any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Person is or could have been a party and indemnification could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Person, unless such settlement (x) includes
an unconditional release of such Indemnified Person, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Person, from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding and (y) does not include any statement as
to or any admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any Indemnified Person. 

  

	 	(d)	 If the indemnification provided for in paragraphs (a) and (b) above is unavailable to an Indemnified Person or insufficient in respect of any
losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein, then each 

  
 35 

	 	
Indemnifying Person under such paragraph, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Person thereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Person as a result
of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company, on the one hand, and the applicable Agents, on the other, from the offering of the Shares or
(ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) but also the relative fault of the Company, on
the one hand, and the applicable Agents, on the other, in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits
received by the Company, on the one hand, and the applicable Agents, on the other, shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the net proceeds (before deducting expenses) received by the Company from the sale of the Shares and the
total discounts and commissions received by the applicable Agents in connection therewith bear to the aggregate Gross Sales Price of such Shares. The relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and the applicable Agents, on the other, shall be
determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company, on the one hand, or by the
applicable Agents, on the other, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. 

 

	 	(e)	The Company and the Agents agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 10 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not
take account of the equitable considerations referred to in paragraph (d) above. The amount paid or payable by an Indemnified Person as a result of the losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to in paragraph (d) above shall be
deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses incurred by such Indemnified Person in connection with any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 10, in no event shall an
Agent be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total discounts and commissions received by such Agent with respect to the offering of the Shares exceeds the amount of any damages that such Agent has otherwise been
required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any
person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. 

  
 36 

	 	(f)	The remedies provided for in this Section 10 are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies which may otherwise be available to any Indemnified Person at law or in equity. 

11.    Notices.    All notices and other communications under this Agreement and any Terms Agreement

 12.    No Fiduciary
Relationship.    The Company acknowledges and agrees that each Agent is acting solely in the capacity of an arm’s length contractual counterparty to the Company with respect to the offering of Shares contemplated hereby
(including in connection with determining the terms of the offering) and not as a financial advisor or a fiduciary to, or an agent of, the Company or any other person. Additionally, no Agent is advising the Company or any other person as to any
legal, tax, investment, accounting or regulatory matters in any jurisdiction. The Company shall consult with its own advisors concerning such matters and shall be responsible for making its own 

  
 37 

 
independent investigation and appraisal of the transactions contemplated hereby, and no Agent shall have any responsibility or liability to the Company with respect thereto. Any review by the
Agents of the Company, the transactions contemplated hereby or other matters relating to such transactions will be performed solely for the benefit of the Agents and shall not be on behalf of the Company. 

13.    Governing Law; Construction.    This Agreement, any Terms Agreement and any claim, counterclaim
or dispute of any kind or nature whatsoever arising out of or in any way relating to this Agreement or any Terms Agreement (“Claim”), directly or indirectly, shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the
State of New York, other than rules governing choice of applicable law. The Section headings in this Agreement and any Terms Agreement have been inserted as a matter of convenience of reference and are not a part of this Agreement or any Terms
Agreement. 
 14.    Submission to Jurisdiction.    Except as set forth below, no Claim may be
commenced, prosecuted or continued in any court other than the courts of the State of New York located in the City and County of New York or in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, which courts shall have exclusive
jurisdiction over the adjudication of such matters, and the Company consents to the jurisdiction of such courts and personal service with respect thereto. Each of the Agents and the Company, on its behalf and, to the extent permitted by applicable
law, on behalf of its stockholders and affiliates, waives all right to trial by jury in any action, proceeding or counterclaim, whether based upon contract, tort or otherwise, in any way arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any Terms
Agreement. The Company agrees that a final and non-appealable judgment in any such action, proceeding or counterclaim brought in any such court shall be conclusive and binding upon the Company and may be enforced in any other courts in the
jurisdiction of which the Company is or may be subject, by suit upon such judgment. 
 15.    Parties in
Interest.    The agreements set forth herein and in any Terms Agreement have been and are made solely for the benefit of the Agents and the Company and, to the extent provided in Section 10 hereof, the controlling
persons, directors and officers referred to in such section, and their respective successors, assigns, heirs, personal representatives and executors and administrators. No other person, partnership, association or corporation (including a purchaser,
as such purchaser, from any of the Agents) shall acquire or have any right under or by virtue of this Agreement or any Terms Agreement. 

16.    Counterparts.    This Agreement and any Terms Agreement may be signed in counterparts (which may
include counterparts delivered by any standard form of telecommunication), each of which shall be an original and all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. 

17.    Successors and Assigns.    This Agreement shall be binding upon the Agents and the Company and
their respective successors and assigns and any 

  
 38 

 
successor or assign of any substantial portion of the Company’s and the Agents’ respective businesses and/or assets. 

18.    Survival.    The respective indemnities, rights of contribution, representations, warranties and
agreements of the Company and the Agents contained in this Agreement or made by or on behalf of the Company or the Agents pursuant to this Agreement or any certificate delivered pursuant hereto shall survive the delivery of and payment for the
Shares and shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any termination of this Agreement or any investigation made by or on behalf of the Company or the Agents. 

19.    Certain Defined Terms.    For purposes of this Agreement, (a) except where otherwise
expressly provided, the term “affiliate” has the meaning set forth in Rule 405 under Act and (b) the term “significant subsidiary” has the meaning set forth in Rule 1-02 of Regulation S-X under
the Exchange Act. 
 20.    Amendments or Waivers.    No amendment or waiver of any provision of this
Agreement, nor any consent or approval to any departure therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the parties hereto. 

21.    Miscellaneous. 
  

	 	(a)	Certain of the Agents may be direct or indirect subsidiaries of banks. Such Agents are not banks and are separate from any bank affiliated thereto. Because such Agents are separately incorporated entities, each such
Agent is solely responsible for its own contractual obligations and commitments, including obligations with respect to sales and purchases of securities. Securities sold, offered or recommended by such Agents are not deposits, are not insured by the
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, are not guaranteed by a branch or agency of any bank affiliated therewith and are not otherwise an obligation or responsibility of a branch or agency of any bank affiliated therewith. 

 

	 	(b)	Lending affiliates of the Agents may have lending relationships with issuers of securities underwritten or privately placed by the Agents. To the extent required under the securities laws, prospectuses and other
disclosure documents for securities underwritten or privately placed by such Agents will disclose the existence of any such lending relationships and whether the proceeds of the issue will be used to repay debts owed to affiliates of such Agents.

  

	 	(c)	 The Agents and one or more of their respective affiliates may make markets in the Common Stock or other securities of the Company, in connection with which
they may buy and sell, as agent or principal, for long or short account, shares of the Common Stock or other securities of the Company, at the same time that the Agents are acting as agents pursuant to this Agreement; provided that each Agent
acknowledges and 

  
 39 

	 	
agrees that any such transactions are not being, and shall not be deemed to have been, undertaken at the request or direction of, or for the account of, the Company, and that the Company has and
shall have no control over any decision by such Agents and their respective affiliates to enter into any such transactions. 

  

	 	(d)	Each Agent acknowledges and agrees that the arrangements among the Agents in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be governed by J.P. Morgan Securities LLC’s Master Agreement Among
Underwriters (the “MAAU”) (whether or not each such Agent has previously signed the MAAU), and any Direct Seller may act on behalf of the other Agents hereunder in connection with the sales of the Shares and otherwise as if it is
the Manager (as defined in the MAAU). It is agreed and understood that the application of the MAAU to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement is solely for purposes of convenience and shall not create any implication that the Agents are
underwriters for purposes of the Act or otherwise. 

  

	 	(e)	Except as may otherwise be provided in a Terms Agreement, if an Agent is appointed as a Direct Seller, each of the Agents represents to the Company that such Direct Seller is authorized to act on behalf of the several
Agents in connection with making any determination or judgment to be made by the Agents pursuant to this Agreement, and the Company shall be entitled to act and rely upon any request, notice, consent, waiver or agreement purportedly given on behalf
of the Agents when the same shall have been given by such Direct Seller; provided, however, that at such time as an Agent is party to a Transaction Acceptance at that time in effect, the consent, approval, determination, judgment or
similar action by such Agent shall also be required to the extent provided by this Agreement.
