Ladies and Gentlemen:
The Company and the Purchaser (each a “Party” to this agreement) are executing and delivering this agreement (this “Agreement”) in reliance upon the exemption from securities registration afforded by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”) as promulgated by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under the 1933 Act.
I.    The Shares
Subject to the satisfaction or waiver by Purchaser of the conditions described in Section III, the Purchaser hereby agrees to subscribe for and purchase from the Company, and the Company agrees to issue and sell to the Purchaser, shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Purchaser Shares”), par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), for aggregate consideration of U.S.$740,000,000 and at a price per share equal to the purchase price as set forth on Schedule I hereto (the “Purchase Price”). 
Concurrently with the transaction contemplated by this Agreement, the Company agrees to sell to one of its shareholders shares of Common Stock for aggregate consideration of U.S.$3,260,000,000 and at a price per share equal to the Purchase Price (the “Concurrent Issuance”).
The closing of the sale of the Purchaser Shares shall take place at the offices of White & Case, LLP, 1221 Avenue of the Americas, New York, NY 10020 or at such other place (including virtually, via the electronic exchange of documents and signatures) as the Purchaser and the Company may mutually agree.

The Purchaser has sought such accounting, legal and tax advice as it has considered necessary to make an informed investment decision with respect to its acquisition of the Purchaser Shares;

(f)
(i)The Parties agree that any and all disputes, controversies or claims arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be submitted for mediation, and if the matter is not resolved through mediation, 

then it shall be submitted to the American Arbitration Association, for final and binding arbitration pursuant to the other provisions of this paragraph (f). Either Party may commence mediation by providing to the other Party a written request for mediation, setting forth the subject of the dispute and the relief requested. The Parties shall select a mediator and the procedures under which the mediation is to be conducted by mutual agreement, provided that if, on the date that is thirty (30) days after the written request for mediation is given, the Parties have not agreed upon a mediator and such procedures, then the Parties shall provide to the American Arbitration Association a written request for mediation under the American Arbitration Association’s Commercial Mediation Procedures, setting forth the subject of the dispute and the relief requested, and a neutral mediator shall be appointed by the American Arbitration Association administrator. The Parties will cooperate with the American Arbitration Association and with one another in scheduling the mediation proceedings. The Parties agree that they will participate in the mediation in good faith and that they will share equally in its costs. All offers, promises, conduct and statements, whether oral or written, made in the course of the mediation by any of the Parties, their representatives, and by the mediator or any American Arbitration Association employees (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any true and correct translations thereof), are confidential, privileged and inadmissible for any purpose, including impeachment, in any arbitration or other proceeding involving the Parties, provided that evidence that is otherwise admissible or discoverable shall not be rendered inadmissible or nondiscoverable as a result of its use in the mediation. Either Party may initiate arbitration by notice (a “Request for Arbitration”) to any other Party at any time following the initial mediation session or at any time following 45 days from the date of filing the written request for mediation, whichever occurs first (“Earliest Initiation Date”). The mediation may continue after the commencement of arbitration if the Parties so desire. At no time prior to the Earliest Initiation Date shall either side initiate an arbitration or litigation related to this Agreement except to pursue a provisional remedy that is authorized by law or by American Arbitration Association rules or by agreement of the Parties. However, this limitation is inapplicable to a Party if the other Party refuses to comply with the requirements of this (i). All applicable statutes of limitation and defenses based upon the passage of time shall be tolled until 15 days after the Earliest Initiation Date. The Parties will take such action, if any, required to effectuate such tolling.
(ii)Subject to (i), any and all disputes, controversies or claims arising out of, relating to or in connection with this Agreement or the negotiation, execution or performance hereof, including any dispute regarding its arbitrability, shall be exclusively and finally settled by arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association, provided that a Request for Arbitration is given after the Earliest Initiation Date (except as otherwise provided in (i). An arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the American Arbitration Association rules governing commercial arbitration in effect at the time the Request for Arbitration is filed (the “AAA Rules”), except as they may be modified by the provisions of this Agreement. The place of the arbitration shall be New York City, New York. The arbitration shall be conducted by an arbitrator appointed by mutual agreement of the Parties; provided that in the event the Parties fail to agree on the appointment of an arbitrator within fifteen (15) days after delivery of the Request for Arbitration, such arbitrator shall be appointed by the American Arbitration Association pursuant to the AAA Rules. If the arbitrator is appointed by the American Arbitration Association, such arbitrator shall be a retired judge or justice from any United States federal jurisdiction. Any arbitrator shall have had no business relationship (other than acting as arbitrator or mediator) or familial relationship with any Party, or any Affiliate of any Party, or any representative of any Party in a significant matter during the past ten (10) years. The arbitration shall commence within thirty (30) days after the appointment of the arbitrator; the arbitration shall be completed within sixty (60) days of commencement; and the arbitrator’s award shall be made within thirty (30) days following such completion. The Parties may mutually agree to extend the time limits specified in the foregoing (ii).
(iii)The arbitrators will apply the substantive law (and the law of remedies, if applicable) as provided in paragraph (d), and will be without power to apply any different substantive law, and, for the avoidance of doubt, shall maintain all proceedings in confidence. The arbitrators will render an award and a written opinion in support thereof. Such award shall include the costs related to the arbitration and reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses to the prevailing Party. The arbitrators shall also have the authority to grant provisional remedies, including injunctive relief, and to award specific performance. The arbitrators may entertain a motion to dismiss and/or a motion for summary judgment by either Party, applying the standards governing such motions under the Federal 

Rules of Civil Procedure, and may rule upon any claim or counterclaim (or any portion thereof), without holding an evidentiary hearing, if, after affording the Parties an opportunity to present written submission and documentary evidence, the arbitrators conclude that there is no material issue of fact and that the claim or counterclaim (or a portion thereof) may be determined as a matter of law. The Parties waive, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any rights to appeal, or to review of, any arbitrators’ award by any court. The arbitrators’ award shall be final and binding, and judgment on the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, either Party may seek injunctive relief, specific performance, or other equitable remedies from a court in accordance with paragraph (d).
(g)Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement otherwise requiring the Purchaser to provide any information or documents to the Company or any third party, the Purchaser shall be entitled to withhold, edit, redact and/or otherwise limit disclosure of any such information or documents on the grounds of national security and/or financial or economic sensitivity and the Purchaser shall have no liability whatsoever and shall be free and harmless from any claims whatsoever for exercising its rights pursuant to this clause.
