Account; (iv) the Securities Intermediary has not entered into, and until the termination of this Agreement will not enter
into, any agreement with any other Person relating to the Collateral Account and/or any financial assets credited thereto pursuant
to which it has agreed to comply with Entitlement Orders of such other Person; and (v) the Securities Intermediary has not
entered into, and until the termination of this Agreement will not enter into, any agreement with the Company, the Collateral Agent,
the Purchase Contract Agent or the Holders of the Equity Units purporting to limit or condition the obligation of the Securities
Intermediary to comply with Entitlement Orders as set forth in this Section 2.2 hereof.

 

(c)        The
Securities Intermediary hereby agrees that each item of property (whether investment property, financial asset, security, instrument
or cash) credited to the Collateral Account shall be treated as a “financial asset” within the meaning of Section 8-102(a)(9)
of the UCC.

 

(d)        In
the event of any conflict between this Agreement (or any portion hereof) and any other agreement now existing or hereafter entered
into by the parties hereto, the terms of this Agreement shall prevail.

with full power of substitution, as the Purchase Contract Agent’s attorney-in-fact to take on behalf of, and in the name,
place and stead of the Purchase Contract Agent and the Holders, any action necessary or desirable to perfect and to keep perfected

 SETTLEMENT OF PURCHASE CONTRACTS

 

SECTION
4.1   Substitution for Debentures and the Creation of Treasury Units

 

A Holder of a Corporate
Unit may create or recreate a Treasury Unit and separate the Applicable Ownership Interest in Debentures or the Applicable Ownership
Interest in the Treasury Portfolio, as applicable, from the related Purchase Contract in respect of such Corporate Unit by substituting
Treasury Securities for all, but not less than all, of the Applicable Ownership Interest in Debentures or Applicable Ownership
Interest in the Treasury Portfolio that form a part of such Corporate Unit in accordance with this Section 4.1
and Section 3.13 of the Purchase Contract Agreement; provided, however, that if the Applicable Ownership
Interest in the Treasury Portfolio has not replaced the Applicable Ownership Interest in Debentures as a component of Corporate
Units as a result of a Successful Remarketing or a Special Event Redemption or a Mandatory Redemption, such Collateral Substitutions
may only be made on or prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the seventh Business Day immediately preceding the Purchase Contract
Settlement Date; and provided, further, that if the Treasury Portfolio has replaced the Debentures
underlying the Applicable Ownership Interest in Debentures as a component of Corporate Units as a result of a Successful Remarketing
or a Special Event Redemption or a Mandatory Redemption, such Collateral Substitutions may only be made on or prior to the second
Business Day immediately preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement Date. In accordance with Section 3.13 of the Purchase
Contract Agreement, unless a Successful Remarketing or a Special Event Redemption or a Mandatory Redemption has previously occurred,
Holders of Corporate Units shall not be permitted to effect Collateral Substitutions during the period commencing on and including
the Business Day prior to the first of the three sequential Remarketing Dates in a Three-Day Remarketing Period and ending on and
including the Reset Effective Date relating to a Successful Remarketing during such Three-Day Remarketing Period or, if none of
the remarketings during such Three-Day Remarketing Period is successful, the Business Day following the last of the three sequential
Remarketing Dates occurring during such Three-Day Remarketing Period. Holders of Corporate Units may make Collateral Substitutions
and establish Treasury Units (i) only in integral multiples of 20 Corporate Units if Applicable Ownership Interests in
Debentures are being substituted for Treasury Securities, or (ii) only in integral multiples of _____ Corporate Units (or
such other number of Corporate Units as may be determined by the Remarketing Agents following a Successful Remarketing if the Reset
Effective Date is not a Payment Date) if the Applicable Ownership Interests in the Treasury Portfolio are being substituted for
Treasury Securities.

For example, to create
20 Treasury Units (if a Special Event Redemption or a Mandatory Redemption has not occurred and the Applicable Ownership Interests
in Debentures remain components of Corporate Units), or _____ Treasury Units (if a Special Event Redemption or a Mandatory Redemption
has occurred or the Treasury Portfolio has replaced the Applicable Ownership Interests in Debentures as components of Corporate
Units as a result of a Successful Remarketing) (or such other number of Treasury Units as may be determined by the Remarketing
Agents following a Successful Remarketing if the Reset Effective Date is not a Payment Date), the Corporate Unit Holder shall,

 

(a)        if
the Treasury Portfolio has not replaced the Applicable Ownership Interest in Debentures as a component of Corporate Units as a
result of a Successful Remarketing or a Special Event Redemption or a Mandatory Redemption, on or prior to the seventh Business
Day immediately preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, deposit with the Collateral Agent a Treasury Security having a
principal amount at maturity of $1,000; or

 

(b)        if
the Treasury Portfolio has replaced the Applicable Ownership Interest in Debentures as a component of Corporate Units as a result
of a Successful Remarketing or a Special Event Redemption or a Mandatory Redemption, on or prior to the second Business Day immediately
preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, deposit with the Collateral Agent Treasury Securities having an aggregate principal
amount at maturity of $________; and

 

(c)        in
each case, transfer and surrender the related 20 Corporate Units, or in the event the Treasury Portfolio is a component of Corporate
Units, _____ Corporate Units (or such other number of Corporate Units as may be determined by the Remarketing Agents following
a Successful Remarketing if the Reset Effective Date is not a Payment Date), to the Purchase Contract Agent accompanied by an instruction
to the Purchase Contract Agent, substantially in the form of Exhibit B hereto, stating that the Holder has transferred
the relevant amount of Treasury Securities to the Collateral Agent and requesting that the Purchase Contract Agent instruct the
Collateral Agent to release the Applicable Ownership Interest in Debentures or the Applicable Ownership Interest in the Treasury
Portfolio, as the case may be, underlying such Corporate Units, whereupon the Purchase Contract Agent shall promptly give such
instruction to the Collateral Agent, substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto.

 

    	 	11	 

     

    

 

Upon receipt of the
Treasury Securities described in clause (a) or (b) above and the instructions described in clause (c)
above from the Purchase Contract Agent, the Collateral Agent shall release the Pledged Applicable Ownership Interests in Debentures
or the Pledged Applicable Ownership Interests in the Treasury Portfolio, as the case may be, and shall promptly Transfer such Pledged
Applicable Ownership Interests in Debentures or the Pledged Applicable Ownership Interests in the Treasury Portfolio, as the case

SECTION
4.2   Substitution for Treasury Securities and the Creation of Corporate Units

 

A Holder of a Treasury
Unit may create or recreate a Corporate Unit by depositing with the Collateral Agent the Applicable Ownership Interest in Debentures

all, of the Treasury Securities that are a component of the Treasury Unit in accordance with this Section 4.2 and Section
3.14 of the Purchase Contract Agreement; provided, however, that if the Applicable Ownership Interest
in the Treasury Portfolio has not replaced the Applicable Ownership Interest in Debentures as a component of Corporate Units as
a result of a Successful Remarketing or a Special Event Redemption or a Mandatory Redemption, such Collateral Substitutions may
only be made on or prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the second Business Day immediately preceding the first day of the
Final Three-Day Remarketing Period; and if the Treasury Portfolio has replaced the Debentures underlying the Applicable Ownership
Interest in Debentures as a component of Corporate Units as a result of a Successful Remarketing or a Special Event Redemption
or a Mandatory Redemption, such Collateral Substitutions may only be made on or prior to the second Business Day immediately preceding
the Purchase Contract Settlement Date. In accordance with Section 3.14 of the Purchase Contract Agreement, unless a Successful

relating to a Successful Remarketing during such Three-Day Remarketing Period or, if none of the Remarketings during such Three-Day
Remarketing Period is successful, the Business Day following the last of the three sequential Remarketing Dates occurring during
such Three-Day Remarketing Period. Holders of Treasury Units may make such Collateral Substitutions and establish Corporate Units
(i) only in integral multiples of 20 Treasury Units if Treasury Securities are being replaced by Applicable Ownership Interest
in Debentures, or (ii) only in integral multiples of _____ Treasury Units (or such other number of Treasury Units as may be
determined by the Remarketing Agents following a Successful Remarketing if the Reset Effective Date is not a Payment Date) if any
Treasury Security is being replaced by the Applicable Ownership Interest in the Treasury Portfolio.

 

For example, to create
20 Corporate Units (if a Special Event Redemption or a Mandatory Redemption has not occurred and the Applicable Ownership Interests
in Debentures remain components of Corporate Units), or _____ Corporate Units (if a Special Event Redemption or a Mandatory Redemption
has occurred or the Treasury Portfolio has replaced the Applicable Ownership Interests in Debentures as components of Corporate
Units as a result of a Successful Remarketing) (or such other number of Corporate Units as may be determined by the Remarketing
Agents following a Successful Remarketing if the Reset Effective Date is not a Payment Date), the Treasury Unit Holder shall

(b)        if
the Treasury Portfolio has replaced the Applicable Ownership Interest in Debentures as a component of Corporate Units as a result

Portfolio for each _____ Corporate Units being created by the Holder, and having an aggregate principal amount of $________, which
Applicable Ownership Interest in the Treasury Portfolio must have been purchased in the open market at the expense of the Holder

(c)        in
each case, transfer and surrender the related 20 Treasury Units, or in the event the Treasury Portfolio is a component of Corporate
Units, _____ Treasury Units (or such other number of Treasury Units as may be determined by the Remarketing Agents following a
Successful Remarketing if the Reset Effective Date is not a Payment Date), to the Purchase Contract Agent accompanied by an instruction
to the Purchase Contract Agent, substantially in the form of Exhibit B hereto, stating that the Holder has transferred
the relevant amount of Applicable Ownership Interest in Debentures or the Applicable Ownership Interest in the Treasury Portfolio,
as the case may be, to the Collateral Agent and requesting that the Purchase Contract Agent instruct the Collateral Agent to release

instruction to the Collateral Agent, substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto.

 

Upon receipt of the
Debenture or the Applicable Ownership Interest in the Treasury Portfolio, as the case may be, described in clause (a) or
(b) above and the instructions described in clause (c) above from the Purchase Contract Agent, the Collateral
Agent shall release the Pledged Treasury Securities and shall promptly Transfer such Pledged Treasury Securities, free and clear
of the lien, pledge or security interest created hereby, to the Purchase Contract Agent for the benefit of the Holders.

 

SECTION
4.3   Termination Event

 

Upon receipt by the
Collateral Agent of written notice from the Company or the Purchase Contract Agent that there has occurred a Termination Event,
the Collateral Agent shall release all Collateral from the Pledge and shall promptly Transfer any Debentures underlying Pledged
Applicable Ownership Interests in Debentures (or, if (i) a Special Event Redemption if the proceeds thereof were used to acquire
the Treasury Portfolio in accordance with the Purchase Contract Agreement, (ii) a Mandatory Redemption if the proceeds thereof
were used to acquire the Treasury Portfolio in accordance with the Purchase Contract Agreement or (iii) a Successful Remarketing,
as the case may be, has occurred, the Pledged Applicable Ownership Interests in the Treasury Portfolio) and Pledged Treasury Securities
to the Purchase Contract Agent for the benefit of the Holders of the Corporate Units and the Treasury Units, respectively, free
and clear of any lien, pledge or security interest or other interest created hereby.

 

    	 	13	 

     

    

 

If such Termination
Event shall result from the Company’s becoming a debtor under the Bankruptcy Code, and if the Collateral Agent shall for
any reason fail promptly to effectuate the release and Transfer of all Pledged Applicable Ownership Interests in Debentures, the
Pledged Applicable Ownership Interests in the Treasury Portfolio or the Pledged Treasury Securities, as the case may be, as provided
by this Section 4.3, any Holder may, and the Purchase Contract Agent shall, upon receipt from the Holders of
security or indemnity satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred by the Purchase Contract
Agent in compliance with this paragraph, (i) use its reasonable best efforts to obtain an opinion of a nationally recognized
law firm reasonably acceptable to the Collateral Agent to the effect that, as a result of the Company being the debtor in such
a bankruptcy case, the Collateral Agent will not be prohibited from releasing or Transferring the Collateral as provided in this
Section 4.3, and shall deliver such opinion to the Collateral Agent within ten days after the occurrence of
such Termination Event, and if (A) any such Holder or the Purchase Contract Agent shall be unable to obtain such opinion within
ten days after the occurrence of such Termination Event or (B) the Collateral Agent shall continue, after delivery of such opinion,
to refuse to effectuate the release and Transfer of all Pledged Applicable Ownership Interests in Debentures, the Pledged Applicable
Ownership Interests in the Treasury Portfolio or the Pledged Treasury Securities, as the case may be, as provided in this Section 4.3,

(a)        Upon
receipt by the Collateral Agent of (1) (i) a notice from the Purchase Contract Agent that a Holder of a Corporate Unit has

its Purchase Contract with cash and (ii) payment by such Holder of the amount required to settle the Purchase Contract prior
to 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the sixth Business Day or (if all the Remarketings during the Final Three-Day Remarketing
Period result in a Failed Remarketing) one Business Day, as applicable, immediately preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement
Date, or (2) (i) a notice from the Purchase Contract Agent that a Holder of a Treasury Unit has elected, in accordance with the
procedures specified in Section 5.4(c)(i) of the Purchase Contract Agreement, to settle its Purchase Contract with cash
and (ii) payment by such Holder of the amount required to settle the Purchase Contract prior to 11:00 a.m., New York
City time, on the Business Day immediately preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, such payments pursuant to the foregoing
clause (1) or clause (2) to be in lawful money of the United States and to be made by certified or cashiers’ check or wire
transfer in immediately available funds payable to or upon the order of the Company, then the Collateral Agent shall, upon written
direction of the Company, promptly invest any cash received from a Holder in connection with a Cash Settlement in Permitted Investments.
Upon receipt of the proceeds, if any, upon the maturity of the Permitted Investments, the Collateral Agent shall pay the portion
of such proceeds and deliver any certified or cashiers’ checks received, in an aggregate amount equal to the Purchase Price,
to the Company on the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, and shall distribute any funds in respect of the interest earned from
the Permitted Investments, if any, to the Purchase Contract Agent for payment to the relevant Holder.

 

    	 	14	 

     

    

 

(b)        If
a Holder of Corporate Units (if Applicable Ownership Interests in Debentures are components thereof) fails to notify the Purchase
Contract Agent of its intention to effect a Cash Settlement in accordance with Section 5.4(a)(i) of the Purchase Contract
Agreement, or if a Holder of such Corporate Units does notify the Purchase Contract Agent as provided in Section 5.4(a)(i) of
the Purchase Contract Agreement of its intention to effect a Cash Settlement, but fails to make such payment as required by Section 5.4(a)(ii) of
the Purchase Contract Agreement, such Holder shall be deemed to have consented to the disposition of the Debentures underlying
the Pledged Applicable Ownership Interests in Debentures pursuant to the Remarketing as described in Section 5.4(a) of the
Purchase Contract Agreement, which is incorporated herein by reference, and Section 4.6 hereof.

 

If all the Remarketings
during the Final Three-Day Remarketing Period result in a Failed Remarketing as described in Section 5.4(a) of the Purchase
Contract Agreement, each Holder of Corporate Units of which Applicable Ownership Interests in Debentures are components (as to
which the related Purchase Contracts have not been settled with cash) shall be deemed to have exercised its Put Right, as described
in the Officer’s Certificate, with respect to its Applicable Ownership Interests in Debentures, and to have elected that
a portion of the Put Price equal to the principal amount of the relevant Debentures underlying such Applicable Ownership Interests
in Debentures be applied against such Corporate Unit Holder’s obligations to pay the Purchase Price for the Common Stock
issued in accordance with each related Purchase Contract on the Purchase Contract Settlement Date.  Following such application,
such Holder’s obligations to pay the Purchase Price for the Common Stock will be deemed to be satisfied in full, and upon
receipt of written confirmation from the Company that a portion of the Put Price in the amount specified in such notice has been
so applied to pay the Purchase Price for the Common Stock, the Collateral Agent shall cause the Securities Intermediary to release
the Debentures underlying all such Pledged Applicable Ownership Interests in Debentures from the Collateral Account and shall promptly
transfer such Debentures to the Company.  Thereafter, the Collateral Agent shall promptly remit the remaining portion of the
Proceeds of such Holder’s exercise of its Put Right in excess of the aggregate Purchase Price for Common Stock to be issued
in accordance with each related Purchase Contract, if any, to the Purchase Contract Agent for payment to such Holder of the Corporate
Units to which such Applicable Ownership Interests in Debentures relate.

 

    	 	15	 

     

    

 

(c)        If
a Holder of Treasury Units or Corporate Units (if the Applicable Ownership Interests in the Treasury Portfolio has replaced the
Applicable Ownership Interests in Debentures as a component of the Corporate Units) fails to notify the Purchase Contract Agent
of its intention to effect a Cash Settlement in accordance with Section 5.4(c)(i) of the Purchase Contract Agreement,
or if a Holder of Treasury Units or Corporate Units (if the Applicable Ownership Interest in the Treasury Portfolio has replaced
the Applicable Ownership Interest in Debentures as a component of the Corporate Units) notifies the Purchase Contract Agent as
provided in Section 5.4(c)(i) of the Purchase Contract Agreement of its intention to effect a Cash Settlement, but fails
to make such payment as required by Section 5.4(c)(ii) of the Purchase Contract Agreement, upon the maturity of the related
Pledged Treasury Securities or the Pledged Applicable Ownership Interests in the Treasury Portfolio, if any, held by the Collateral
Agent on the Business Day immediately preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, the principal amount of such Pledged Treasury
Securities, or the portion of the Pledged Applicable Ownership Interests in the Treasury Portfolio, as the case may be, corresponding
to such Purchase Contracts received by the Collateral Agent shall, upon written direction of the Company, be invested promptly
in Permitted Investments. On the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, an aggregate amount equal to the Purchase Price will be remitted
to the Company as payment of the Purchase Price of such Purchase Contracts. In the event the sum of the Proceeds from the Pledged
Treasury Securities or the Pledged Applicable Ownership Interests in the Treasury Portfolio, as the case may be, and the investment
earnings earned from the Permitted Investments, if any, is in excess of the aggregate Purchase Price of the Purchase Contracts
being settled thereby, the Collateral Agent will distribute such excess to the Purchase Contract Agent for the benefit of the Holder
of the related Treasury Units or Corporate Units.

 

SECTION
4.5   Early Settlement; Fundamental Change Early Settlement

 

Upon written notice
to the Collateral Agent by the Purchase Contract Agent that a Holder of an Equity Unit has elected to effect Early Settlement or
Fundamental Change Early Settlement of its entire obligation under the Purchase Contract forming a part of such Equity Unit in
accordance with the terms of the Purchase Contract and the Purchase Contract Agreement, and that the Purchase Contract Agent has
received from such Holder, and paid to the Company as confirmed in writing by the Company, the related Early Settlement Amount
or Fundamental Change Early Settlement Amount, as the case may be, pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Contract and the Purchase
Contract Agreement and that all conditions to such Early Settlement or Fundamental Change Early Settlement, as the case may be,
have been satisfied, then the Collateral Agent shall release from the Pledge (a) the Pledged Applicable Ownership Interests in
Debentures or the Pledged Applicable Ownership Interests in the Treasury Portfolio in the case of a Holder of Corporate Units or
(b) Pledged Treasury Securities in the case of a Holder of Treasury Units, in each case that had been components of such Equity
Unit, and shall transfer such Pledged Applicable Ownership Interests in Debentures or the Pledged Applicable Ownership Interests
in the Treasury Portfolio or Pledged Treasury Securities, as the case may be, free and clear of the Pledge created hereby, to the
Purchase Contract Agent for the benefit of such Holder.

SECTION
4.6   Application of Proceeds Settlement

 

(a)        In
the event a Holder of Corporate Units, unless the Applicable Ownership Interests in the Treasury Portfolio have replaced the Applicable
Ownership Interests in Debentures as a component of the Corporate Units, has not elected to make Cash Settlement by notifying the
Purchase Contract Agent in the manner provided for in Section 5.4(a)(i) of the Purchase Contract Agreement or has not
made an Early Settlement or a Fundamental Change Early Settlement of the Purchase Contracts underlying its Corporate Units, such
Holder shall be deemed to have consented to the disposition of the Debentures underlying the Pledged Applicable Ownership Interests
in Debentures pursuant to the Remarketing as described in Section 5.4(a) of the Purchase Contract Agreement in order to pay
for the shares of Common Stock to be issued under such Purchase Contract. The Collateral Agent shall by 10:00 a.m., New York
City time, on the sixth Business Day immediately preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, without any instruction from
such Holder of Corporate Units, present the related Debentures underlying the Pledged Applicable Ownership Interests in Debentures
to the Remarketing Agents for remarketing. Upon receiving such Debentures, the Remarketing Agents, pursuant to the terms of the
Remarketing Agreement, will use their commercially reasonable efforts to remarket such Debentures underlying the Pledged Applicable
Ownership Interests in Debentures on such date at a price equal to or greater than 100% of the aggregate Value of such Pledged
Applicable Ownership Interests in Debentures plus the Remarketing Fee. The Remarketing Agents may deduct the Remarketing Fee from
any portion of the proceeds from the Remarketing of the Debentures that is in excess of the sum of 100% of the aggregate Value
of such Pledged Applicable Ownership Interests in Debentures and the aggregate Separate Debentures Purchase Price. Upon a Successful
Remarketing and after deducting the Remarketing Fee from such Proceeds, the Remarketing Agents will remit the remaining portion
of the Proceeds of a Successful Remarketing related to such Applicable Ownership Interest in Debentures to the Collateral Agent.
On the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, the Collateral Agent shall apply that portion of the Proceeds from such Remarketing equal
to the aggregate Value of the Pledged Applicable Ownership Interests in Debentures to satisfy in full the obligations of such Holders
of Corporate Units to pay the Purchase Price for the Common Stock under the related Purchase Contracts. The remaining portion of
such Proceeds, if any, shall be distributed by the Collateral Agent to the Purchase Contract Agent for payment to the Holders.
If the Remarketing Agents advise the Collateral Agent in writing that they cannot remarket the related Pledged Applicable Ownership
Interests in Debentures of such Holders of Corporate Units at a price not less than 100% of the aggregate Value of such Pledged
Applicable Ownership Interests in Debentures, or if the Remarketing does not occur because a condition precedent to such Remarketing
has not been fulfilled, thus resulting in a Failed Remarketing, the Collateral Agent will proceed as described in Section
4.4 hereof.

 

(b)        In
the event a Holder of Treasury Units or, if the Treasury Portfolio has replaced the Applicable Ownership Interests in Debentures
as a component of Corporate Units, Corporate Units, has not made an Early Settlement or a Fundamental Change Early Settlement of
the Purchase Contracts underlying its Treasury Units or Corporate Units, as the case may be, such Holder shall be deemed to have
elected to pay for the shares of Common Stock to be issued under such Purchase Contracts from the Proceeds of the related Pledged
Treasury Securities or the related Pledged Applicable Ownership Interests in the Treasury Portfolio, as the case may be. On the
Business Day immediately prior to the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, the Collateral Agent shall, at the written direction of
the Purchase Contract Agent, invest the cash Proceeds of the maturing Pledged Treasury Securities or the Pledged Applicable Ownership
Interests in the Treasury Portfolio, as the case may be, in Permitted Investments. Without receiving any instruction from any such
Holder of Treasury Units or Corporate Units, the Collateral Agent shall apply the Proceeds of the related Pledged Treasury Securities
or Pledged Applicable Ownership Interests in the Treasury Portfolio to the settlement of the related Purchase Contracts on the
Purchase Contract Settlement Date. In the event the sum of the Proceeds from the related Pledged Treasury Securities or related
Pledged Applicable Ownership Interests in the Treasury Portfolio and the investment earnings from the investment in Permitted Investments,
if any, is in excess of the aggregate Purchase Price of the Purchase Contracts being settled thereby on the Purchase Contract Settlement
Date, the Collateral Agent shall distribute such excess, when received, to the Purchase Contract Agent for the benefit of the Holders.

 

    	 	17	 

     

    

 

The Company shall not
be obligated to issue any shares of Common Stock in respect of the Purchase Contracts or deliver any certificate therefor to the
Holder unless it shall have received payment in full of the Purchase Price for the shares of Common Stock to be purchased thereunder.

 

(c)        Pursuant
to the Remarketing Agreement, on or prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the second Business Day immediately preceding the
first Remarketing Date of the applicable Three-Day Remarketing Period, but no earlier than 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the
fifth Business Day immediately preceding such first Remarketing Date of the applicable Three-Day Remarketing Period, holders of
Separate Debentures may elect to have their Separate Debentures remarketed by delivering the Separate Debentures, together with
a notice of such election, substantially in the form of Exhibit C hereto, to the Custodial Agent. The Custodial
Agent will hold the Separate Debentures in an account separate from the Collateral Account. A holder of Separate Debentures
electing to have its Separate Debentures remarketed will also have the right to withdraw such election by written notice to the
Custodial Agent, substantially in the form of Exhibit D hereto, on or prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time,
on the second Business Day immediately preceding the first Remarketing Date of the relevant Three-Day Remarketing Period, upon
which notice the Custodial Agent shall return such Separate Debentures to such holder. After such time, such election to remarket
shall become an irrevocable election to have such Separate Debentures remarketed in such Remarketing. Promptly after 11:00 a.m.,
New York City time, on the Business Day immediately preceding the first Remarketing Date of the relevant Three-Day Remarketing
Period, the Custodial Agent shall notify the Remarketing Agents of the aggregate principal amount of the Separate Debentures to
be remarketed and shall deliver to the Remarketing Agents for Remarketing all Separate Debentures delivered to the Custodial Agent,
and not withdrawn, pursuant to this Section 4.6(c) prior to such date. The portion of the proceeds from such
remarketing equal to the aggregate Value of the Separate Debentures will automatically be remitted by the Remarketing Agents to
the Custodial Agent for the benefit of the holders of the Separate Debentures.

 

(d)        In
addition, after deducting the Remarketing Fee from the Value of the remarketed Separate Debentures, from any amount of such proceeds
in excess of the aggregate Value of the remarketed Separate Debentures, the Remarketing Agents will remit to the Custodial Agent
the remaining portion of the proceeds, if any, for the benefit of such holders. If, despite using their commercially reasonable
efforts, a remarketing attempt is unsuccessful on the first Remarketing Date of a Three-Day Remarketing Period, subsequent remarketings
will be attempted on each of the two following Remarketing Dates in that Three-Day Remarketing Period until a Successful Remarketing
occurs. If the Remarketing Agents advise the Custodial Agent in writing that none of the three remarketings occurring during a
Three-Day Remarketing Period resulted in a Successful Remarketing or, if a condition to the Remarketing shall not have been fulfilled,
thus in either case resulting in a Failed Remarketing, the Remarketing Agents will promptly return the Separate Debentures to the
Custodial Agent for redelivery to such holders.

and the TRADES Regulations and such additional rights and remedies to which a secured party is entitled under the laws in effect
in any jurisdiction where any rights and remedies hereunder may be asserted. Wherever reference is made in this Agreement to any
Section of the UCC, such reference shall be deemed to include a reference to any provision of the UCC which is a successor to,

of the Holders’ obligations under the Purchase Contracts or (ii) sale of the Pledged Applicable Ownership Interests
in Debentures or other Collateral in one or more public or private sales and application of the Proceeds in full satisfaction of

(b)        Without
limiting any rights or powers otherwise granted by this Agreement to the Collateral Agent, in the event the Collateral Agent is
unable to make payments to the Company on account of the Pledged Applicable Ownership Interests in the Treasury Portfolio (as specified
in clauses (i) or (ii) of the definition of the term “Applicable Ownership Interest in the Treasury Portfolio”) or
on account of principal payments of any Pledged Treasury Securities as provided in Article III hereof in satisfaction
of the obligations of the Holder of the Equity Units of which such Pledged Treasury Securities, or the Pledged Applicable Ownership
Interests in the Treasury Portfolio (as specified in clause (i) of the definition of the term “Applicable Ownership Interest
in the Treasury Portfolio”), as applicable, is a part under the related Purchase Contracts, the inability to make such payments
shall constitute a default under the related Purchase Contracts and the Collateral Agent shall have and may exercise, with reference
to such Pledged Treasury Securities, or such Pledged Applicable Ownership Interests in the Treasury Portfolio (as specified in
clauses (i) or (ii) of the definition of the term “Applicable Ownership Interest in the Treasury Portfolio”), as applicable,
and such obligations of such Holder, any and all of the rights and remedies available to a secured party under the UCC and the
TRADES Regulations after default by a debtor, and as otherwise granted herein or under any other law.

 

(c)        Without
limiting any rights or powers otherwise granted by this Agreement to the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Agent is hereby irrevocably
authorized to receive and collect all payments of (i) principal of, or interest on, the Debentures underlying the Pledged
Applicable Ownership Interests in Debentures, (ii) the principal amount of the Pledged Treasury Securities, or (iii) the
Pledged Applicable Ownership Interests in the Treasury Portfolio, subject, in each case, to the provisions of Article III
hereof, and as otherwise provided herein.

 

(d)        The
Purchase Contract Agent individually and as attorney-in-fact for each Holder of Equity Units agrees that, from time to time, upon
the written request of the Collateral Agent, the Purchase Contract Agent or such Holder, it shall execute and deliver such further
documents and do such other acts and things as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request in order to maintain the Pledge, and
the perfection and priority thereof, and to confirm the rights of the Collateral Agent hereunder. The Purchase Contract Agent shall
have no liability to any Holder for executing any documents or taking any such acts requested by the Collateral Agent hereunder,
except for liability for its own negligent act, its own negligent failure to act or its own willful misconduct.

SECTION
6.2   Special Event Redemption; Mandatory Redemption; Remarketing

 

(a)        Upon
the occurrence of a Special Event Redemption or a Mandatory Redemption prior to the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, the Collateral
Agent will, upon the written instruction of the Company and the Purchase Contract Agent, deliver the Debentures underlying the
Pledged Applicable Ownership Interests in Debentures to the Indenture Trustee for payment of the Redemption Price. The Collateral
Agent shall, or in the event the Debentures underlying the Pledged Applicable Ownership Interests in Debentures are registered
in the name of the Purchase Contract Agent, the Purchase Contract Agent shall, direct the Indenture Trustee to pay the Redemption
Price therefor payable on the Special Event Redemption Date or the Mandatory Redemption Date, as the case may be, on or prior to
12:30 p.m., New York City time, by check or wire transfer in immediately available funds at such place and to such account as may
be designated by the Collateral Agent. In the event the Collateral Agent receives such Redemption Price, subject to the provisions
of Section 4.3, the Collateral Agent will, at the written direction of the Company, apply an amount equal to
the Redemption Amount of such Redemption Price to purchase from the Quotation Agent the Treasury Portfolio and promptly remit the
remaining portion of such Redemption Price to the Purchase Contract Agent for payment to the Holders of Corporate Units. The Collateral
Agent shall Transfer the Treasury Portfolio to the Collateral Account to secure the obligation of all Holders of Corporate Units
to purchase Common Stock of the Company under the Purchase Contracts constituting a part of such Corporate Units, in substitution
for the Debentures underlying the Pledged Applicable Ownership Interests in Debentures. Thereafter the Collateral Agent shall have
such security interests, rights and obligations with respect to the Treasury Portfolio as it had in respect of the Debentures underlying
the Pledged Applicable Ownership Interests in Debentures, as provided in Article II, Article III, Article
IV, Article V and Article VI hereof, and any reference herein to the Debentures underlying
the Pledged Applicable Ownership Interests in Debentures shall be deemed to be a reference to the Treasury Portfolio.

 

(b)        Upon
a Successful Remarketing during the Period for Early Remarketing, the proceeds of such Remarketing with respect to the Pledged
Applicable Ownership Interests in Debentures (after deducting the Remarketing Fee, if any) shall be delivered to the Collateral
Agent in exchange for the Debentures underlying the Pledged Applicable Ownership Interests in Debentures. Pursuant to the terms
of this Agreement, the Collateral Agent will apply an amount equal to the Treasury Portfolio Purchase Price to purchase on behalf
of the Holders of Corporate Units the Treasury Portfolio and promptly remit the remaining portion, if any, of such proceeds to
the Purchase Contract Agent for payment to the Holders of such Corporate Units. The Treasury Portfolio will be substituted for
the Debentures underlying the Pledged Applicable Ownership Interests in Debentures, and will be held by the Collateral Agent in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement to secure the obligation of each Holder of a Corporate Unit to purchase the Common
Stock on the Purchase Contract Settlement Date under the Purchase Contract constituting a part of such Corporate Unit. Following
a Successful Remarketing during the Period for Early Remarketing, the Holders of Corporate Units and the Collateral Agent shall
have such security interests, rights and obligations with respect to the Treasury Portfolio as the Holders of Corporate Units and
the Collateral Agent had in respect of the Debentures underlying the Pledged Applicable Ownership Interests in Debentures subject
to the Pledge thereof as provided in Article II, Article III, Article IV, Article V and
Article VI hereof, and any reference herein to the Debentures underlying the Pledged Applicable Ownership Interests
in Debentures shall be deemed to be reference to the Treasury Portfolio.

 

    	 	21	 

     

    

 

SECTION
6.3   Remarketing During the Period for Early Remarketing

 

The Collateral Agent
shall, by 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Business Day immediately preceding the first Remarketing Date of the applicable
Three-Day Remarketing Period selected by NEE Capital pursuant to the Officer’s Certificate, without any instruction from
any Holder of Corporate Units, present the Debentures underlying the Pledged Applicable Ownership Interests in Debentures to the
Remarketing Agents for remarketing. Upon receiving such Debentures, the Remarketing Agents, pursuant to the terms of the Remarketing
Agreement, will use their commercially reasonable efforts to remarket such Debentures, during the Three-Day Remarketing Period,
at a price not less than 100% of the Treasury Portfolio Purchase Price plus the Remarketing Fee. If a Remarketing on the first
Remarketing Date during the applicable Three-Day Remarketing Period is not successful, the Remarketing Agents shall, in accordance
with the Remarketing Agreement, remarket the Debentures on each of the next two succeeding Remarketing Dates during such Three-Day
Remarketing Period until a Successful Remarketing occurs. The Remarketing Agents may deduct the Remarketing Fee from any amount
of Proceeds from such Remarketing in excess of sum of the Remarketing Treasury Portfolio Purchase Price plus the Separate Debentures
Purchase Price. After deducting the Remarketing Fee, if any, the Remarketing Agents will remit the entire amount of the Proceeds
of such remarketing to the Collateral Agent on or prior to 12:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Reset Effective Date. In the
event the Collateral Agent receives such Proceeds with respect to the Pledged Applicable Ownership Interests in Debentures, the
Collateral Agent will, at the written direction of the Company, apply an amount equal to the Treasury Portfolio Purchase Price
to purchase from the Quotation Agent the Treasury Portfolio and remit the remaining portion of such Proceeds, if any, to the Purchase
Contract Agent for payment to the Holders of Corporate Units. The Collateral Agent shall Transfer the Treasury Portfolio to the
Collateral Account to secure the obligation of all Holders of Corporate Units to purchase Common Stock of the Company under the
Purchase Contracts constituting a part of such Corporate Units, in substitution for the Debentures underlying the Pledged Applicable
Ownership Interests in Debentures. Thereafter the Collateral Agent shall have such security interests, rights and obligations with
respect to the Treasury Portfolio as it had in respect of the Debentures underlying the Pledged Applicable Ownership Interests
in Debentures as provided in Article II, Article III, Article IV, Article V
and Article VI hereof, and any reference herein to the Debentures underlying the Pledged Applicable Ownership Interests
in Debentures shall be deemed to be a reference to such Treasury Portfolio, and any reference herein to interest on the Debentures
underlying the Pledged Applicable Ownership Interests in Debentures shall be deemed to be a reference to distributions on such
Treasury Portfolio.

 

SECTION
6.4   Substitutions

 

Whenever a Holder has
the right to substitute Treasury Securities, Debentures or the Applicable Ownership Interest in the Treasury Portfolio, as the
case may be, for Collateral held by the Collateral Agent, such substitution shall not constitute a novation of the security interest
created hereby.

 

ARTICLE VII.

the Transfer of the Collateral, including the Collateral Agent, gives the notices and takes the action required of it hereunder
and under applicable law for perfection of that interest and assuming the establishment and exercise of control pursuant to Section 2.2
hereof); and

 

(d)        the
execution and performance by the Holder of its obligations under this Agreement will not result in the creation of any security
interest, lien or other encumbrance on the Collateral other than the security interest and lien granted under Article II
hereof or violate any provision of any existing law or regulation applicable to it or of any mortgage, charge, pledge, indenture,
contract or undertaking to which it is a party or which is binding on it or any of its assets.

or any other security interest whatsoever over the Collateral or any part of it other than pursuant to this Agreement; and

 

(b)        neither
the Purchase Contract Agent nor such Holders will sell or otherwise dispose (or attempt to dispose) of the Collateral or any part
of it except for the beneficial interest therein, subject to the Pledge hereunder, transferred in connection with the Transfer
of the Equity Units.

not be required to initiate or conduct any litigation or collection proceedings hereunder (except in the case of the Collateral

such direction. The Company shall promptly confirm in writing any oral instructions furnished to the Collateral Agent by the Company.

 

SECTION
8.3   Reliance

Intermediary, the Custodial Agent and the Collateral Agent shall be entitled conclusively to rely upon any certification, order,

experts selected by the Collateral Agent, the Custodial Agent or the Securities Intermediary, as the case may be. As to any matters
not expressly provided for by this Agreement, the Collateral Agent, the Custodial Agent and the Securities Intermediary shall in

it shall not accept, receive or permit there to be created in favor of itself and shall take no affirmative action to permit there
to be created in favor of any other Person, any security interest, lien or other encumbrance of any kind in or upon the Collateral.

 

    	 	25	 

     

    

 

SECTION
8.5   Non-Reliance

 

None of the Securities
Intermediary, the Custodial Agent or the Collateral Agent shall be required to keep itself informed as to the performance or observance
by the Purchase Contract Agent or any Holder of Equity Units of this Agreement, the Purchase Contract Agreement, the Equity Units
or any other document referred to or provided for herein or therein or to inspect the properties or books of the Purchase Contract

duty or responsibility to provide the Company with any credit or other information concerning the affairs, financial condition
or business of the Purchase Contract Agent or any Holder of Equity Units (or any of their respective affiliates) that may come

SECTION
8.6   Compensation and Indemnity

 

The Company agrees:

 

(a)        to
pay each of the Collateral Agent, the Custodial Agent and the Securities Intermediary from time to time such compensation as shall
be agreed in writing (from time to time) between the Company and the Collateral Agent, the Custodial Agent or the Securities Intermediary,
as the case may be, for all services rendered by each of them hereunder; and

 

(b)        to
indemnify the Collateral Agent, the Custodial Agent and the Securities Intermediary and each of their respective directors, officers,
agents and employees for, and to hold each of them harmless from and against, any loss, all claims (whether asserted by the Company,
a Holder or any other Person) and liabilities and reasonable out-of-pocket expense incurred without negligence, willful misconduct
or bad faith on its part, arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of its powers and duties under
this Agreement, including the reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) of
defending itself against any claim or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of such powers and duties.

 

The Collateral Agent,
the Custodial Agent and the Securities Intermediary shall each promptly notify the Company of any third party claim which may give
rise to indemnity hereunder and give the Company the opportunity to participate in the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably
satisfactory to the indemnified party, and no such claim shall be settled without the written consent of the Company, which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld.

 

Without prejudice to
its rights hereunder, when any of the Collateral Agent, Custodial Agent or Securities Intermediary incurs expenses after a Termination
Event occurs, or renders services after a Termination Event occurs, such expenses and compensation are intended to constitute expenses
of administration under the Bankruptcy Code or any applicable state bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law.

SECTION
8.7   Failure to Act

 

In the event of any
ambiguity in the provisions of this Agreement or any dispute between or conflicting claims by or among the parties hereto or any
other Person with respect to any funds or property deposited hereunder, the Collateral Agent and the Custodial Agent shall be entitled,
after prompt notice to the Company and the Purchase Contract Agent, at its sole option, to refuse to comply with any and all claims,
demands or instructions with respect to such property or funds so long as such dispute or conflict shall continue, and neither
the Collateral Agent nor the Custodial Agent shall be or become liable in any way to any of the parties hereto for its failure
or refusal to comply with such conflicting claims, demands or instructions. The Collateral Agent and the Custodial Agent shall
be entitled to refuse to act until either (i) such conflicting or adverse claims or demands shall have been finally determined
by a court of competent jurisdiction or settled by agreement between the conflicting parties as evidenced in a writing, satisfactory
to the Collateral Agent or the Custodial Agent, as the case may be, or (ii) the Collateral Agent or the Custodial Agent, as
the case may be, shall have received security or an indemnity satisfactory to the Collateral Agent or the Custodial Agent, as the
case may be, sufficient to save the Collateral Agent or the Custodial Agent, as the case may be, harmless from and against any
and all loss, liability or reasonable out-of-pocket expense which the Collateral Agent or the Custodial Agent, as the case may
be, may without negligence, willful misconduct, or bad faith on its part incur by reason of its acting. The Collateral Agent or
the Custodial Agent may in addition elect to commence an interpleader action or seek other judicial relief or orders as the Collateral
Agent or the Custodial Agent, as the case may be, may deem necessary. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary,
neither the Collateral Agent nor the Custodial Agent shall be required to take any action that is in its opinion contrary to law
or to the terms of this Agreement, or which would in its opinion subject it or any of its officers, employees or directors to liability.

shall be continuing, the Collateral Agent or the Custodial Agent may be removed by the Purchase Contract Agent. The Purchase Contract
Agent shall promptly notify the Company of any removal of the Collateral Agent pursuant to clause (c) of the immediately
preceding sentence. Upon any such resignation or removal, the Company shall have the right to appoint a successor Collateral Agent
or Custodial Agent, as the case may be. If no successor Collateral Agent or Custodial Agent, as the case may be, shall have been
so appointed and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Collateral Agent’s or Custodial Agent’s
giving of notice of resignation or such removal, then the retiring Collateral Agent or Custodial Agent at the expense of the Company
(other than in connection with a removal for cause pursuant to either clause (b) or (c) of the first sentence of this Section 8.8),
as the case may be, may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Collateral Agent or Custodial
Agent, as the case may be. Each of the Collateral Agent and the Custodial Agent shall be a bank which has an office in New York,
New York with a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Collateral Agent
or Custodial Agent, as the case may be, hereunder by a successor Collateral Agent or Custodial Agent, as the case may be, such
successor shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Collateral
Agent or Custodial Agent, as the case may be, and the retiring Collateral Agent or Custodial Agent, as the case may be, shall take
all appropriate action to transfer any money and property held by it hereunder (including the Collateral) to such successor. The
retiring Collateral Agent or Custodial Agent shall, upon such succession, be discharged from its duties and obligations as Collateral
Agent or Custodial Agent hereunder. After any retiring Collateral Agent’s or Custodial Agent’s resignation hereunder
as Collateral Agent or Custodial Agent, the provisions of this Article VIII shall continue in effect for its
benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as the Collateral Agent or Custodial Agent.
Any resignation or removal of the Collateral Agent hereunder shall be deemed for all purposes of this Agreement as the simultaneous
resignation or removal of the Custodial Agent and the Securities Intermediary.

shall have the right to appoint agents or advisors in connection with any of its duties hereunder, and the Collateral Agent shall
not be liable for any action taken or omitted by, or in reliance upon the advice of, such agents or advisors selected in good faith.
The appointment of agents or advisors pursuant to this Section 8.9 shall be subject to prior consent of the
Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

 

SECTION

Anything in this Agreement
to the contrary notwithstanding, in no event shall any of the Collateral Agent, the Custodial Agent or the Securities Intermediary
or their officers, employees or agents be liable under this Agreement to any third party for indirect, special, punitive, or consequential
loss or damage of any kind whatsoever, including lost profits, whether or not the likelihood of such loss or damage was known to
the Collateral Agent, the Custodial Agent or the Securities Intermediary, or any of them, incurred without any act or deed that
is found to be attributable to gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Collateral Agent, the Custodial Agent
or the Securities Intermediary.

 

ARTICLE IX.

SECTION
9.1   Amendment Without Consent of Holders

 

Without the consent
of any Holders, the Company, the Collateral Agent, the Custodial Agent, the Securities Intermediary and the Purchase Contract Agent,

Agent, the Securities Intermediary and the Purchase Contract Agent, for any of the following purposes:

 

    	 	28	 

     

    

 

(a)        to
evidence the succession of another Person to the Company, and the assumption by any such successor of the covenants of the Company;

 

(b)        to
add to the covenants of the Company for the benefit of the Holders or to surrender any right or power herein conferred upon the

or to make any other provisions with respect to such matters or questions arising under this Agreement, provided such action shall

any amendment made solely to conform the provisions of this Agreement to the description of the Equity Units, the Purchase Contracts
and the other components of the Equity Units contained in the prospectus supplement, dated ________________, relating to the Equity
Units will not be deemed to adversely affect the interests of the Holders.

 

SECTION
9.2   Amendment With Consent of Holders

 

With the consent of
the Holders of not less than a majority of the outstanding Purchase Contracts voting together as one class, by Act of said Holders
delivered to the Company, the Purchase Contract Agent or the Collateral Agent, as the case may be, the Company, the Purchase Contract
Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Custodial Agent and the Securities Intermediary may amend this Agreement for the purpose of modifying
in any manner the provisions of this Agreement or the rights of the Holders in respect of the Equity Units; provided,
however, that no such supplemental agreement shall, without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Equity
Unit adversely affected thereby,

 

(a)        change
the amount or the type of Collateral required to be Pledged to secure a Holder’s Obligations under the Purchase Contracts
(except for the rights of Holders of Corporate Units to substitute the Treasury Securities for the Pledged Applicable Ownership
Interests in Debentures or the Applicable Ownership Interest in the Treasury Portfolio or the rights of Holders of Treasury Units
to substitute Debentures or the Applicable Ownership Interest in the Treasury Portfolio for the Pledged Treasury Securities);

 

(b)        unless
such change is not adverse to the Holders, impair the right of the Holder of any Equity Unit to receive distributions on the related
Collateral or otherwise adversely affect the Holder’s rights in or to such Collateral;

 

    	 	29	 

     

    

 

(c)        otherwise
effect any action that would require the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Equity Unit affected thereby pursuant to the
Purchase Contract Agreement if such action were effected by an agreement supplemental thereto; or

 

(d)        reduce
the percentage of the outstanding Purchase Contracts the consent of whose Holders is required for any such amendment;

 

provided, that if any such
supplemental amendment referred to above would adversely affect only the Corporate Units or the Treasury Units, then only Holders
of the affected class of Equity Units as of the record date for the Holders entitled to vote thereon will be entitled to vote on
or consent to such amendment or proposal, and such amendment or proposal shall not be effective except with the consent of Holders
of not less than a majority of such class.
