 Dear Sir/Madam: 
 The purpose of this
letter agreement (this “Confirmation”) is to confirm the terms and conditions of the Transaction entered into between JPMorgan Chase Bank, National Association, London Branch (“Party A”) and Westar Energy, Inc.
(“Party B”) on the Trade Date specified below (the “Transaction”). This confirmation constitutes a “Confirmation” as referred to in the ISDA Master Agreement specified below. 

The definitions and provisions contained in the 2002 ISDA Equity Derivatives Definitions (as published by the International Swaps and Derivatives Association,
Inc. (“ISDA”)) (the “Equity Definitions”) are incorporated into this Confirmation. In the event of any inconsistency between the Equity Definitions and this Confirmation, this Confirmation will govern. Any reference
to a currency shall have the meaning contained in Annex A to the 1998 ISDA FX and Currency Option Definitions, as published by ISDA. 
  

	1.	This Confirmation evidences a complete and binding agreement between Party A and Party B as to the terms of the Transaction to which this Confirmation relates. This Confirmation shall supplement, form a part of, and be
subject to an agreement in the form of the 2002 ISDA Master Agreement (the “Agreement”) as if Party A and Party B had executed an agreement in such form on the Trade Date (but without any Schedule except for the election of the laws
of the State of New York as the governing law), and provided that in no event shall Party B be required to pay an additional amount to Party A under Section 2(d)(i)(4) of the Agreement in respect of any distribution or deemed
distribution with respect to Shares. In the event of any inconsistency between provisions of that Agreement and this Confirmation, this Confirmation will prevail for the purpose of the Transaction to which this Confirmation relates. The parties
hereby agree that no Transaction other than the Transaction to which this Confirmation relates shall be governed by the Agreement. For purposes of the Equity Definitions, the Transaction is a Share Forward Transaction.

	Additional Adjustment:	  	If, in Party A’s commercially reasonable judgment, the actual cost to Party A, over any 30 consecutive calendar day period, of borrowing a number of Shares equal to the Base Shares to hedge its exposure to the Transaction
exceeds a weighted average rate equal to 60 basis points per annum, then, at Party B’s election, either (1) the Calculation Agent shall reduce the Forward Price in order to compensate Party A for the amount by which such cost exceeded a
weighted average rate equal to 60 basis points per annum during such period or (2) the

  
 5 

			
		
		  	Borrow Cost Threshold (as defined herein) shall thereafter be reduced to 60 basis points per annum. The Calculation Agent shall notify Party B prior to making any such adjustment to the Forward Price pursuant to clause (1) above
or any reduction to the Borrow Cost Threshold pursuant to clause (2) above, as the case may be, and, upon the request of Party B, Party A shall provide an itemized list of its stock loan costs for the applicable 30 consecutive calendar day
period.

any transaction under the BNYMTC Forward) that would cause any purchases of Shares by Party A (or any of its affiliates) during any Unwind Period relating to any Cash Settlement or Net Share Settlement of the Transaction not to comply with Rule
10b-18 under the Exchange Act, as if such rule were applicable to such purchases.

 Covenants of Party B: Party B hereby agrees that, so long as either party has or may have any obligation
under the Transaction, that: 
  

	 	(a)	Any Shares, when issued and delivered in accordance with the terms of the Transaction, will be duly authorized and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, and the issuance thereof will not be subject to any
preemptive or similar rights. 

  

	 	(b)	Party B has reserved and will keep available, free from preemptive rights, out of its authorized but unissued Shares, solely for the purpose of issuance upon settlement of the Transaction as herein provided, the full
number of Shares as shall then be issuable upon settlement of the Transaction. 

  

	 	(c)	Prior to any Settlement Date, the Settlement Shares with respect to that Settlement Date shall have been approved for listing or quotation on the Exchange, subject to official notice of issuance. 

 

	 	(d)	Party B agrees not to repurchase any Shares if, immediately following such repurchase, the Base Shares (as such term is defined in the Base Confirmation), plus the Base Shares would be equal to or greater than

Period. 

  

	 	(f)	In addition to any other requirements set forth herein, Party B agrees not to elect Cash Settlement or Net Share Settlement if such settlement would result in a violation of the U.S. federal securities laws or any other
federal or state law or regulation applicable to Party A or Party B. 

  

	 	(g)	Party B will, by the fifth succeeding Exchange Business Day, notify Party A upon obtaining knowledge of the occurrence of any event that would constitute an Event of Default, a Potential Event of Default or a Potential

whom Party A (or an affiliate of Party A) borrowed Shares in connection with hedging its exposure to the Transaction will be freely saleable without further registration or other restrictions under the Securities Act in the hands of those securities
lenders, irrespective of whether such stock loan is effected by Party A or an affiliate of Party A to hedge Party A’s exposure under the Transaction. Accordingly, Party B agrees that the Settlement Shares that it delivers to Party A on each
Settlement Date shall not bear a restrictive legend and that such Settlement Shares will be deposited in, and the delivery thereof shall be effected through the facilities of, the Clearance System. 

Covenants and Representation of Party A: 
  

	 	(a)	Unless the section labeled “Restricted Shares” below is applicable, Party A shall use any Settlement Shares delivered by Party B to Party A to return to securities lenders to close out borrowings created by
Party A (or an affiliate of Party A) in connection with its hedging activities related to exposure under the Transaction. 

  

	 	(b)	In connection with bids and purchases of Shares in connection with any Cash Settlement or Net Share Settlement of the Transaction, Party A shall comply, or cause compliance, with the provisions of Rule 10b-18 (other
than Rule 10b-18(b)(1)) under the Exchange Act, as if such provisions were applicable to such purchases. 

  

	 	(c)	Party A is an “eligible contract participant” (as such term is defined in Section 1a(18) of the Commodity Exchange Act, as amended), and the Transaction was subject to individual negotiation.

  

	 	(d)	Party A shall deliver to Party B a properly executed Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) Form W-9 or similar documentation establishing an exemption from backup withholding under the Internal Revenue Code
of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).

amount, as determined by the Calculation Agent, in cash equal to the product of (a) such Extraordinary Dividend, and (b) the number of Base Shares on such record date (in the case of any such record date that occurs during an Unwind
Period, subject to reduction by the Calculation Agent by a number of Shares equal to the number of Settlement Shares relating to such Unwind Period for which Party A has unwound its hedge), to Party A on the earlier of (i) the date on which

Events: An Acceleration Event shall occur if: 
  

	 	(a)	Stock Borrow Events. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, if in its commercially reasonable judgment Party A (or its affiliate) is unable to hedge Party A’s exposure to the Transaction (a
“Stock Borrow Event”) because (i) of the lack of sufficient Shares being made available for Share borrowing by lenders or (ii) it (or its affiliate) would incur a stock loan cost of more than the Borrow Cost Threshold,
Party A shall have the right to designate any Scheduled Trading Day to be a Settlement Date on at least three Scheduled Trading Days’ notice and to select the number of Settlement Shares for such Settlement Date; provided that
(x) prior to the effectiveness of the designation of a Stock Borrow Event under this paragraph (a), Party B may refer Party A to a lending party reasonably acceptable to Party A that will lend Party A (or its affiliate) Shares within such three
Scheduled Trading Day period, on terms reasonably acceptable to Party A and at a stock loan cost of no more than the Borrow Cost Threshold and (y) the number of Settlement Shares for any Settlement Date so designated by Party A shall not exceed
the number of Shares as to which such inability to, or cost limitation with respect to, borrow exists; or 

  

	 	(b)	Dividends and Other Distributions. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, if on any day occurring after the Trade Date Party B declares a distribution, issue or dividend to existing holders of the Shares of
(i) any cash dividend (other than an Extraordinary Dividend) to the extent all cash dividends (excluding Extraordinary Dividends) having an ex-dividend date during the period from and including any Forward Price Reduction Date (with each of the
Trade Date and the Maturity Date and each date after the Maturity Date being a Forward Price Reduction Date for purposes of this clause (b) only) to but excluding the next subsequent Forward Price Reduction Date exceeds, on a per Share basis,
the Forward Price Reduction Amount set forth opposite the first date of any such period on Schedule I or (ii) share capital or securities of another issuer acquired or owned (directly or indirectly) by Party B as a result of a spin-off or other
similar transaction or (iii) any other type of securities (other than Shares), rights or warrants or other assets, which distribution, issue or dividend has a record date on or prior to the final Settlement Date, then Party A shall have the
right to designate any Scheduled Trading Day to be a Settlement Date for the entire Transaction on at least three Scheduled Trading Days’ notice and to select the number of Shares for such Settlement Date; or 

 

	 	(c)	ISDA Early Termination Date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the Agreement or in the Definitions, if Party A has the right to designate an Early Termination Date pursuant to Section 6 of
the Agreement, Party A shall have the right to designate any Scheduled Trading Day to be a Settlement Date for the entire Transaction on at least three Scheduled Trading Days’ notice; or 

 

	 	(d)	Board Approval of Merger. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, if on any day occurring after the Trade Date the board of directors of Party B votes to approve, or there is a public announcement of, in
either case any action that, if consummated, would constitute a Merger Event (as defined in the Equity Definitions), Party B shall notify Party A of any such vote or announcement within three Scheduled Trading Days (and, in the case of any such
vote, Party B also covenants and agrees to publicly announce the occurrence of such vote within three Scheduled Trading Days thereof). Thereafter, Party A shall have the right to designate any Scheduled Trading Day to be a Settlement Date for the
entire Transaction on at least three Scheduled Trading Days’ notice; or

	 	(e)	Other Events. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the Agreement or in the Equity Definitions, if an Insolvency, an Insolvency Filing, a Nationalization, a Delisting (as provided further in the
next sentence) or a Change in Law (other than as specified in clause (Y) of the definition thereof) occurs (provided that the definition of “Change in Law” shall be amended by addition of clause (C) to read as follows:
“(C) due to the effectiveness or implementation of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010”), Party A shall have the right to designate any Scheduled Trading Day to be a Settlement Date for the entire
Transaction on at least three Scheduled Trading Days’ notice and Party A shall be the Determining Party. In addition to the provisions of Section 12.6(a)(iii) of the Equity Definitions, it will also constitute a Delisting if the Exchange
is located in the United States and the Shares are not immediately re-listed, re-traded or re-quoted on any of The New York Stock Exchange, NYSE MKT, The NASDAQ Global Select Market or The NASDAQ Global Market (or their respective successors); if
the Shares are immediately re-listed, re-traded or re-quoted on any such exchange, such exchange shall be deemed to be the Exchange. 

Termination Settlement: 
 If a Settlement
Date is specified following an Acceleration Event (a “Termination Settlement Date”), Physical Settlement shall apply with respect to such Termination Settlement Date as set forth above, subject to the provisions described under
“Limit on Beneficial Ownership” below. If, upon designation of a Termination Settlement Date by Party A, Party B fails to deliver the Settlement Shares relating to such Termination Settlement Date when due or otherwise fails to perform its
obligations in connection therewith, it shall be an Event of Default with respect to Party B and Section 6 of the Agreement shall apply. If an Acceleration Event occurs during an Unwind Period relating to a number of Settlement Shares to which
Cash Settlement or Net Share Settlement applies, then on the Termination Settlement Date relating to such Acceleration Event, notwithstanding any election to the contrary by Party B, Cash Settlement or Net Share Settlement shall apply to the portion
of the Settlement Shares relating to such Unwind Period as to which Party A has unwound its hedge and Physical Settlement shall apply in respect of (x) the remainder (if any) of such Settlement Shares and (y) the Settlement Shares
designated by Party A in respect of such Termination Settlement Date. 
 Certain Changes In Law: 

Upon the occurrence of any Change In Law specified in clause (Y) of the definition thereof, Party A and Party B agree to negotiate in good
faith for at least 20 calendar days to amend this Confirmation to take account of the resulting “materially increased cost” as such phrase is used in clause (Y) of the definition of “Change In Law.” Such amendment may, if
agreed by Party A and Party B, result in a Change In Law specified in clause (Y) of the definition thereof being treated as if it were a Change In Law specified in clause (X) of the definition thereof, as described in clause (e) under
the heading “Acceleration Events” above. If, after negotiating in good faith for at least 20 calendar days to so amend this Confirmation, Party A and Party B do not agree on such an amendment, the relevant Change In Law specified in clause
(Y) of the definition thereof shall be treated as if it were a Change In Law specified in clause (X) of the definition thereof, as described in clause (e) under the heading “Acceleration Events” above. 

Rule 10b5-1: 
 It is the intent of Party A
and Party B that the purchase of Shares by Party A during any Unwind Period comply with the requirements of Rule 10b5-1(c)(1)(i)(B) of the Exchange Act and that this Confirmation shall be interpreted to comply with the requirements of Rule
10b5-1(c). 
 Party B acknowledges that, except as otherwise provided herein, (i) during any Unwind Period Party B does not have, and
shall not attempt to exercise, any influence over how, when or whether to effect purchases of Shares by Party A (or its agent or affiliate) in connection with this Confirmation and (ii) Party B is entering into the Agreement and this
Confirmation in good faith and not as part of a plan or scheme to evade compliance with federal securities laws including, without limitation, Rule 10b-5 promulgated under the Exchange Act. 

  
 10 

 Party B hereby agrees with Party A that during any Unwind Period Party B shall not communicate,
directly or indirectly, any Material Non-Public Information (as defined herein) to any Equity Personnel (as defined below). For purposes of the Transaction, “Material Non-Public Information” means information relating to
Party B or the Shares that (a) has not been widely disseminated by wire service, in one or more newspapers of general circulation, by communication from Party B to its shareholders or in a press release, or contained in a public filing made by
Party B with the Securities and Exchange Commission and (b) a reasonable investor might consider to be of importance in making an investment decision to buy, sell or hold Shares. For the avoidance of doubt and solely by way of illustration,
information should be presumed “material” if it relates to such matters as dividend increases or decreases, earnings estimates, changes in previously released earnings estimates, significant expansion or curtailment of operations, a
significant increase or decline of orders, significant merger or acquisition proposals or agreements, significant new products or discoveries, extraordinary borrowing, major litigation, liquidity problems, extraordinary management developments,
purchase or sale of substantial assets, or other similar information. For purposes of the Transaction, “Equity Personnel” means any employee on the trading side of the Equity Derivatives Group of J.P. Morgan Securities LLC but does
not include Messrs. David Aidelson, Elliot Chalom, Tim Oeljeschlager, Steven Seltzer and Santosh Sreenivasan (or any other person or persons reasonably designated from time to time by the Compliance Group of Party A, subject to written notice of
such designation being delivered by Party A to Party B). 
 Interpretive Letter: 

The parties intend for this Confirmation to constitute a “Contract” as described in the letter dated October 6, 2003 submitted
by Robert W. Reeder and Leslie N. Silverman to Paula Dubberly of the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Staff”) to which the Staff responded in an interpretive letter dated October 9, 2003. 

Restricted Shares: 
 If Party B is unable
to comply with clause (h) of “Covenants of Party B” above in this Section 3 because of a change in law or a change in interpretation or the policy of the Securities and Exchange Commission or its staff, or Party A otherwise
determines in its reasonable, good faith opinion based on the advice of outside counsel that any Shares to be delivered to Party A by Party B may not be freely returned by Party A to securities lenders as described in clause (h) of
“Covenants of Party B” above in this Section 3, then the Calculation Agent may, in consultation with Party B, make adjustments to the terms of the Transaction to preserve the economic intent of the parties, including adjustments to
the Forward Price to reflect any lack of liquidity in restricted Shares, and the parties shall work together in good faith to effect settlement of the Transaction in a commercially reasonable manner and in compliance with applicable law and
regulations. 
 Maximum Share Delivery: 

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Confirmation, in no event will Party B be required to deliver in settlement of this Transaction on
any Settlement Date, whether pursuant to Physical Settlement, Net Share Settlement or Termination Settlement, more than the number of Base Shares to Party A. 

Assignment: 
 Party A may assign or
transfer any of its rights or delegate any of its duties hereunder to any affiliate of Party A without the prior written consent of Party B, so long as the senior unsecured debt rating (the “Credit Rating”) of such affiliate (or any
guarantor of its obligations under the Transaction) is equal to or greater than the Credit Rating of the ultimate parent of Party A, as specified by Standard and Poor’s Rating Services or Moody’s Investor Service, Inc., at the time of such
assignment or transfer. In connection with any assignment or transfer pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, (i) the guarantee of any guarantor of the relevant transferee’s obligation shall constitute a Credit Support Document
under the Agreement and (ii) the assignee or transferee shall deliver to Party B a properly executed IRS Form W-9 or Form W-8 (together with all necessary 

  
 11 

 
attachments) establishing an exemption from backup withholding under the Code. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Confirmation to the contrary requiring or allowing Party A to purchase
or receive any Shares from Party B, Party A may designate any of its affiliates to purchase or receive such Shares or otherwise to perform Party A’s obligations in respect of the Transaction and any such designee may assume such obligations,
and Party A shall be discharged of its obligations to Party B only to the extent of any such performance. Any affiliate of Party A designated as described in the immediately preceding sentence shall deliver to Party B a properly executed IRS Form
W-9 or Form W-8 (together with all necessary attachments) establishing an exemption from backup withholding under the Code. 
 Matters Relating to
Agent: 
 Each party agrees and acknowledges that (i) J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, as agent, (the “Agent”) acts
solely as agent on a disclosed basis with respect to the transactions contemplated hereunder, and (ii) the Agent has no obligation, by guaranty, endorsement or otherwise, with respect to the obligations of either Party B or Party A hereunder,
either with respect to the delivery of cash or Shares, either at the beginning or the end of the transactions contemplated hereby. In this regard, each of Party A and Party B acknowledges and agrees to look solely to the other for performance
hereunder, and not to the Agent. 
 Indemnity: 

Party B agrees to indemnify Party A and its affiliates and their respective directors, officers, agents and controlling parties (Party A and
each such affiliate or person being an “Indemnified Party”) from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities, joint and several, incurred by or asserted against such Indemnified Party arising out of, in
connection with, or relating to, any breach of any covenant or representation made by Party B in this Confirmation or the Agreement. In addition, Party B will reimburse any Indemnified Party for all reasonable expenses (including reasonable legal
fees and reasonable expenses) in connection with the investigation of, preparation for, or defense of any pending or threatened claim or any action or proceeding arising therefrom (whether or not such Indemnified Party is a party thereto) at the
time, and only to the extent that the relevant loss, claim, damage, liability or expense is found in a final and nonappealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from a breach of a covenant or representation made by Party
B in this Confirmation or the Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, Party B will not be liable under this Indemnity paragraph to the extent that any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense is found in a final and nonappealable judgment by a court
of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from Party A’s gross negligence, fraud, bad faith and/or willful misconduct or a breach of any representation or covenant of Party A contained in this Confirmation or the Agreement. 

Miscellaneous: 
  

			
	 Non-Reliance:

	 Agreements and Acknowledgments Regarding Hedging Activities:

	4.	The Agreement is further supplemented by the following provisions: 

 Agreement Regarding Set-off and
Collateral: 
 Notwithstanding Section 6(f) or any other provision of the Agreement or any other agreement between the parties to
the contrary, the obligations of Party B hereunder are not secured by any collateral. Obligations under the Transaction shall not be set off against any other obligations of the parties, whether arising under the Agreement, this Confirmation, under
any other agreement between the parties hereto, by operation of law or otherwise, and no other obligations of the parties shall be set off against obligations under the Transaction, whether arising under the Agreement, this Confirmation, under any
other agreement between the parties hereto, by operation of law or otherwise, and each party hereby waives any such right of setoff. In calculating any 

  
 12 

 
amounts under Section 6(e) of the Agreement, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Agreement, (a) separate amounts shall be calculated as set forth in such Section 6(e)
with respect to (i) the Transaction and (ii) all other Transactions, and (b) such separate amounts shall be payable pursuant to Section 6(d)(ii) of the Agreement. 

Delivery of Cash: 
 For the avoidance of
doubt, nothing in this Confirmation shall be interpreted as requiring Party B to deliver cash in respect of the settlement of the Transaction, except (i) as set forth under “Extraordinary Dividends” above or (ii) in circumstances
where the cash settlement thereof is within Party B’s control (including, without limitation, where Party B so elects to deliver cash or fails timely to deliver Shares in respect of such settlement). For the avoidance of doubt, the preceding
sentence shall not be construed as limiting any damages that may be payable by Party B as a result of a breach of or an indemnity under this Confirmation or the Agreement. 

Status of Claims in Bankruptcy: 
 Party A
acknowledges and agrees that this confirmation is not intended to convey to Party A rights with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby that are senior to the claims of common stockholders in any U.S. bankruptcy proceedings of Party B;
provided, however, that nothing herein shall limit or shall be deemed to limit Party A’s right to pursue remedies in the event of a breach by Party B of its obligations and agreements with respect to this Confirmation and the
Agreement; and provided further that nothing herein shall limit or shall be deemed to limit Party A’s rights in respect of any transaction other than the Transaction. 

Limit on Beneficial Ownership: 

Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, Party A shall not have the “right to acquire” (within the meaning of NYSE Rule
312.04(g)) Shares hereunder and Party A shall not be entitled to take delivery of any Shares deliverable hereunder (in each case, whether in connection with the purchase of Shares on any Settlement Date or any Termination Settlement Date) to the
extent (but only to the extent) that, after such receipt of any Shares hereunder, and after taking into account any Shares deliverable to Party A on the same day pursuant to the Base Confirmation, (i) the Share Amount would exceed the
Applicable Share Limit, or (ii) Party A and each person subject to aggregation of Shares with Party A under Section 13 or Section 16 of the Exchange Act and rules promulgated thereunder (the “Party A Group”) would
directly or indirectly beneficially own (as such term is defined for purposes of Section 13 or Section 16 of the Exchange Act and rules promulgated thereunder) in excess of the lesser of (A) 7.5% of the then outstanding Shares or
(B) 6,230,554 Shares (the “Threshold Number of Shares”). Any purported delivery hereunder shall be void and have no effect to the extent (but only to the extent) that, after such delivery, and after taking into account any
Shares deliverable to Party A on the same day pursuant to the Base Confirmation, (i) the Share Amount would exceed the Applicable Share Limit or (ii) the Party A Group would directly or indirectly so beneficially own in excess of the
Threshold Number of Shares. If any delivery owed to Party A hereunder is not made, in whole or in part, as a result of this provision, Party B’s obligation to make such delivery shall not be extinguished, and Party B shall make such delivery as
promptly as practicable after, but in no event later than one Exchange Business Day after, Party A gives notice to Party B that, after such delivery, and after taking into account any Shares deliverable to Party A on the same day pursuant to the
Base Confirmation, (i) the Share Amount would not exceed the Applicable Share Limit and (ii) the Party A Group would not directly or indirectly so beneficially own in excess of the Threshold Number of Shares. 

The “Share Amount” as of any day is the number of Shares that Party A and any person whose ownership position would be
aggregated with that of Party A (Party A or any such person, a “Party A Person”) under any law, rule, regulation, regulatory order or organizational documents or contracts of Party B that are, in each case, applicable to ownership
of Shares (“Applicable Restrictions”), own, beneficially own, constructively own, control, hold the power to vote or otherwise meet a relevant definition of ownership of under any Applicable Restriction, as determined by Party A in
its reasonable discretion. The “Applicable Share Limit” means a number of Shares equal to (A) the minimum number of Shares that could give rise to reporting or registration obligations or other requirements (including obtaining
prior approval from any person or entity) of a Party A Person, or could result in an adverse effect on a Party A Person, under any Applicable Restriction, as determined by Party A in its reasonable discretion, minus (B) 1% of the number
of Shares outstanding. 

  
 13 

 Other Forwards: 

Party A acknowledges that Party B has entered into a substantially identical forward transaction for the Shares on the date hereof (the
“Other Additional Forward”) with an affiliate of Wells Fargo Securities, LLC (the “Other Forward Counterparty”). Party A and Party B agree that if Party B designates a Settlement Date with respect to the Other
Additional Forward and for which Cash Settlement or Net Share Settlement is applicable, and the resulting Unwind Period for the Other Additional Forward coincides for any period of time with an Unwind Period for the Transaction (the “Overlap
Unwind Period”), Party B shall notify Party A prior to the commencement of such Overlap Unwind Period of the first Exchange Business Day and length of such Overlap Unwind Period, and, subject to the immediately succeeding paragraph, Party A
shall only be permitted to purchase Shares to unwind its hedge in respect of the Transaction on every other Exchange Business Day that is not a Suspension Day during such Overlap Unwind Period, commencing on the first day of such Overlap Unwind
Period. 
 Party A additionally acknowledges that Party B has entered into a substantially identical forward transaction with respect to
4,000,000 Shares pursuant to a confirmation dated as of September 24, 2013 (the “Other Base Confirmation”) with the Other Forward Counterparty. Party A and Party B agree that if Party B designates a Settlement Date under the
Other Base Confirmation for which Cash Settlement or Net Share Settlement is applicable, and the resulting Unwind Period under the Other Base Confirmation coincides, or would coincide if not for the provisions set forth under clause (y) below,
for any period of time with an Unwind Period for the Transaction (such period, the “Other Matching Unwind Period”), then Party B shall notify Party A prior to the commencement of such Other Matching Unwind Period of the first
Exchange Business Day and the length of such Other Matching Unwind Period and (x) if (and for so long as) the Other Matching Unwind Period also coincides for any period of time with an Unwind Period under the Base Confirmation, Party A shall
only be permitted to purchase Shares to unwind its hedge in respect of the Transaction on every other Exchange Business Day that is not a Suspension Day during the Other Matching Unwind Period, commencing on the first day of such Other Matching
Unwind Period and (y) in all other cases (including, for the avoidance of doubt, if the Unwind Period for the Transaction coincides for any period of time with the Overlap Unwind Period and the Other Matching Unwind Period but not with an
Unwind Period under the Base Confirmation), for the duration of the Other Matching Unwind Period, the Unwind Period under this Confirmation shall not commence (or, if the Unwind Period under this Confirmation has already commenced, such Unwind
Period shall be suspended) until the Exchange Business Day immediately following the date the Other Matching Unwind Period ends. Party B shall promptly notify Party A of the end of any Other Matching Unwind Period. 

Severability: 
 If any term, provision,
covenant or condition of this Confirmation, or the application thereof to any party or circumstance, shall be held to be invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part for any reason, the remaining terms, provisions, covenants, and conditions hereof
shall continue in full force and effect as if this Confirmation had been executed with the invalid or unenforceable provision eliminated, so long as this Confirmation as so modified continues to express, without material change, the original
intentions of the parties as to the subject matter of this Confirmation and the deletion of such portion of this Confirmation will not substantially impair the respective benefits or expectations of parties to this Agreement; provided,
however, that this severability provision shall not be applicable if any provision of Section 2, 5, 6 or 13 of the Agreement (or any definition or provision in Section 14 to the extent that it relates to, or is used in or in connection
with any such Section) shall be so held to be invalid or unenforceable.

 Dear Sir/Madam: 
 The purpose of this
letter agreement (this “Confirmation”) is to confirm the terms and conditions of the Transaction entered into between Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (“Party A”) and Westar Energy, Inc. (“Party
B”) on the Trade Date specified below (the “Transaction”). This confirmation constitutes a “Confirmation” as referred to in the ISDA Master Agreement specified below. 

The definitions and provisions contained in the 2002 ISDA Equity Derivatives Definitions (as published by the International Swaps and Derivatives Association,
Inc. (“ISDA”)) (the “Equity Definitions”) are incorporated into this Confirmation. In the event of any inconsistency between the Equity Definitions and this Confirmation, this Confirmation will govern. Any reference
to a currency shall have the meaning contained in Annex A to the 1998 ISDA FX and Currency Option Definitions, as published by ISDA. 
  

	1.	This Confirmation evidences a complete and binding agreement between Party A and Party B as to the terms of the Transaction to which this Confirmation relates. This Confirmation shall supplement, form a part of, and be
subject to an agreement in the form of the 2002 ISDA Master Agreement (the “Agreement”) as if Party A and Party B had executed an agreement in such form on the Trade Date (but without any Schedule except for the election of the laws
of the State of New York as the governing law), and provided that in no event shall Party B be required to pay an additional amount to Party A under Section 2(d)(i)(4) of the Agreement in respect of any distribution or deemed
distribution with respect to Shares. In the event of any inconsistency between provisions of that Agreement and this Confirmation, this Confirmation will prevail for the purpose of the Transaction to which this Confirmation relates. The parties
hereby agree that no Transaction other than the Transaction to which this Confirmation relates shall be governed by the Agreement. For purposes of the Equity Definitions, the Transaction is a Share Forward Transaction.

Party B in a written notice (a “Settlement Notice”) that satisfies the Settlement Notice Requirements and that (a) if related to any Cash Settlement or Net Share Settlement, is delivered to Party A at least four Scheduled Trading
Days prior to such Settlement Date and (b) if related to Physical Settlement, may be delivered at any time and settlement will be completed as promptly as practicable thereafter; provided that (i) subject to clause (ii) below, the Maturity
Date shall be a Settlement Date if on such date the Base Shares is greater than zero; (ii) if Cash Settlement or Net Share Settlement applies, any Settlement Date, including a Settlement Date on the original Maturity Date, shall, if Party A is
unable to completely unwind its hedge during the Unwind Period due to (A) the restrictions applicable in connection with compliance with Rule 10b-18 under the Exchange Act as if such rule were applicable to Party A’s (or its affiliate’s)
purchases during the Unwind Period, including any purchases in respect of the Base Unwind Daily Share Amount (as defined below), (B) the existence of any Suspension Day or Disrupted Day, or (C) the inability of Party A, in its commercially
reasonable judgment, to unwind its hedge during the Unwind Period, be deferred until the third Scheduled Trading Day following the date on which Party A is able to completely unwind its hedge; provided that such deferral shall not extend
beyond the 45th Scheduled Trading Day after the Settlement Date designated in the Settlement Notice, such 45th Scheduled Trading Day being a Settlement Date to which (x) Cash Settlement or Net Share Settlement, as applicable, will apply with respect
to the portion of such Settlement Shares as to which Party A reasonably determines that it has unwound its hedge during the Unwind Period, and (y) Physical Settlement will apply with respect to the remainder of such Settlement Shares, and (iii) no
more than six Settlement Dates other than the Maturity Date may be designated by Party B; provided further that if Party A shall fully unwind its hedge during an Unwind Period by a date that is more than three Scheduled Trading Days prior to
a Settlement Date specified above, Party A may, by written notice to Party B, specify any Scheduled Trading Day prior to such original Settlement Date as the Settlement Date; provided further that if any Settlement Date specified above is not
a Scheduled Trading Day (or, in the case of Physical Settlement, a Clearance System Business Day), the Settlement Date shall instead be the next Scheduled Trading Day (or Clearance System Business Day, as applicable).
		
		  	Party A will be deemed to have completely unwound its hedge upon such time that Party A shall have acquired a number of Shares (i) in the case of Cash Settlement, equal to the number of Settlement Shares, and (ii) in the case of
Net Share Settlement, that has an aggregate purchase price equal to (1) the product of (A) the number of Settlement Shares, and (B) the arithmetic average of the Forward Price over the applicable Unwind Period (calculated assuming no
reduction to the Forward Price for any Forward Price Reduction Date that occurs during the Unwind Period, except as set forth in clause (2) below), minus (2) the product of (A) the Forward Price Reduction Amount for any Forward Price

	Settlement Notice Requirements:	  	Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, a Settlement Notice delivered by Party B that specifies Cash Settlement or Net Share Settlement will not be effective to establish a Settlement Date or require Cash Settlement or Net

Confirmation of Forward Stock Sale Transaction dated September 24, 2013 between Party A and Party B (the “Base Confirmation)), if any, for such Scheduled Trading Day (the “Base Unwind Daily Share Amount”), (ii) 25% of

Amount or the Net Share Settlement Shares, as the case may be.
		
	Physical Settlement:	  	On any Settlement Date in respect of which Physical Settlement applies, Party B shall deliver to Party A a number of Shares equal to the Settlement Shares for such Settlement Date, and Party A shall deliver to Party B, by wire
transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by Party B, an amount in cash equal to the Physical Settlement Amount for such Settlement Date, on a delivery versus payment basis.
		
	Physical Settlement Amount:	  	For any Settlement Date in respect of which Physical Settlement applies, an amount in cash equal to the product of the Forward Price on such Settlement Date, and the number of Settlement Shares for such Settlement
Date.

for such Settlement Date, minus (2) the product of (i) the Forward Price Reduction Amount for any Forward Price Reduction Date that occurs during such Unwind Period, and (ii) the number of Settlement Shares with respect to which Party

weighted average rate equal to 60 basis points per annum during such period or (2) the

  
 5 

			
		  	Borrow Cost Threshold (as defined herein) shall thereafter be reduced to 60 basis points per annum. The Calculation Agent shall notify Party B prior to making any such adjustment to the Forward Price pursuant to clause (1) above

as representatives of the underwriters, and the other underwriters named therein (the “Underwriting Agreement”), and any certificate delivered pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement by Party B be true and correct on the Effective
Date as if made as of the Effective Date, (ii) the condition that the representations and warranties of Party A contained in Section 3(a) of the Agreement be true and correct on the Effective Date as if made as of the Effective Date,

A’s commercially reasonable judgment, is unable to borrow and deliver for sale a number of Shares equal to the Base Shares on the Effective Date or if, in Party A’s commercially reasonable judgment, borrowing such number of Shares would
entail a stock loan cost of more than 60 basis points per annum with respect to all or any portion of such Shares, the effectiveness of this Confirmation shall be limited to the number of Shares Party A (or its affiliate) may borrow on the Effective
Date at a cost of not more than 60 basis points per annum. 
 Additional Representations and Warranties of Party B: Party B hereby represents and
warrants to Party A (each of such representations to be deemed part of Section 3(a) of the Agreement) as of the date hereof and on the Effective Date, and, in the case of clause (b), on such dates and on the Settlement Date, that: 

  
 6 

	 	(a)	The execution, delivery and the performance by Party B of this Confirmation (including, without limitation, the issuance and delivery of Shares on any Settlement Date) and compliance by Party B with its obligations
hereunder (i) has been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action and does not and will not result in any violation of the provisions of the articles of incorporation or by-laws of Party B or any applicable law, statute, rule,
regulation, judgment, order, writ or decree of any government instrumentality or court, domestic or foreign, having jurisdiction, over Party B or any of its assets, properties or operations and (ii) will not conflict with or result in a breach
or any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, (I) any material indenture, mortgage, deed of trust or other material agreement or instrument, in each case, filed as an exhibit to Party B’s most recent 10-K or Party B’s 8-Ks dated as of March 22, 2013 or August 14, 2013 to which Party B or any of its subsidiaries is a party or by which Party B or any of its
subsidiaries or any of their respective properties is bound. 

  

	 	(b)	No filing with, or authorization, approval, consent, license, order, registration, qualification or decree of, any court or governmental authority or agency is necessary or required for the execution, delivery and

	 	(c)	Party B is as of the date hereof, and after giving effect to the transactions contemplated hereby will be, Solvent. As used in this paragraph, the term “Solvent” means, with respect to a particular date, that

contingent liabilities) as they become absolute and matured, (B) Party B is able to realize upon its assets and pay its debts and other liabilities, contingent obligations and commitments as they mature and become due in the normal course of

business or transaction, and does not propose to engage in any business or transaction, for which its property would constitute unreasonably small capital after giving due consideration to the prevailing practice in the industry in which Party B is
engaged and (E) Party B is not a defendant in any civil action that could reasonably be expected to result in a judgment that Party B is or would become unable to satisfy. 

 

	 	(d)	Neither Party B nor any “affiliated purchaser” of Party B (as defined in Rule 10b-18 under the Exchange Act) shall take any action (including, but not limited to, effecting “Cash Settlement” or
“Net Share Settlement” (as such terms are defined in the Master Confirmation for Forward Stock Sale Transactions, dated as of March 21, 2013, between Party B and The Bank of New York Mellon (the “BNYMTC Forward”)) of
any transaction under the BNYMTC Forward) that would cause any purchases of Shares by Party A (or any of its affiliates) during any Unwind Period relating to any Cash Settlement or Net Share Settlement of the Transaction not to comply with Rule
10b-18 under the Exchange Act, as if such rule were applicable to such purchases. 

  

	 	(e)	Party B is an “eligible contract participant” (as such term is defined in Section 1a(18) of the Commodity Exchange Act, as amended) and the Transaction was subject to individual negotiation.

 7 

 Covenants of Party B: Party B hereby agrees that, so long as either party has or may have any obligation
under the Transaction, that: 
  

	 	(a)	Any Shares, when issued and delivered in accordance with the terms of the Transaction, will be duly authorized and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, and the issuance thereof will not be subject to any
preemptive or similar rights. 

  

	 	(b)	Party B has reserved and will keep available, free from preemptive rights, out of its authorized but unissued Shares, solely for the purpose of issuance upon settlement of the Transaction as herein provided, the full
number of Shares as shall then be issuable upon settlement of the Transaction. 

  

	 	(c)	Prior to any Settlement Date, the Settlement Shares with respect to that Settlement Date shall have been approved for listing or quotation on the Exchange, subject to official notice of issuance. 

 

	 	(d)	Party B agrees not to repurchase any Shares if, immediately following such repurchase, the Base Shares (as such term is defined in the Base Confirmation), plus the Base Shares would be equal to or greater than
15% of the number of then-outstanding Shares. 

  

	 	(e)	Party B will not engage in any “distribution” (as defined in Regulation M under the Exchange Act) other than distributions permitted under Rule 102(b) of Regulation M under the Exchange Act during any Unwind
Period. 

  

	 	(f)	In addition to any other requirements set forth herein, Party B agrees not to elect Cash Settlement or Net Share Settlement if such settlement would result in a violation of the U.S. federal securities laws or any other
federal or state law or regulation applicable to Party A or Party B. 

  

	 	(g)	Party B will, by the fifth succeeding Exchange Business Day, notify Party A upon obtaining knowledge of the occurrence of any event that would constitute an Event of Default, a Potential Event of Default or a Potential

whom Party A (or an affiliate of Party A) borrowed Shares in connection with hedging its exposure to the Transaction will be freely saleable without further registration or other restrictions under the Securities Act in the hands of those securities
lenders, irrespective of whether such stock loan is effected by Party A or an affiliate of Party A to hedge Party A’s exposure under the Transaction. Accordingly, Party B agrees that the Settlement Shares that it delivers to Party A on each
Settlement Date shall not bear a restrictive legend and that such Settlement Shares will be deposited in, and the delivery thereof shall be effected through the facilities of, the Clearance System. 

Covenants and Representation of Party A: 
  

	 	(a)	Unless the section labeled “Restricted Shares” below is applicable, Party A shall use any Settlement Shares delivered by Party B to Party A to return to securities lenders to close out borrowings created by
Party A (or an affiliate of Party A) in connection with its hedging activities related to exposure under the Transaction. 

  

	 	(b)	In connection with bids and purchases of Shares in connection with any Cash Settlement or Net Share Settlement of the Transaction, Party A shall comply, or cause compliance, with the provisions of Rule 10b-18 (other
than Rule 10b-18(b)(1)) under the Exchange Act, as if such provisions were applicable to such purchases. 

  

	 	(c)	Party A is an “eligible contract participant” (as such term is defined in Section 1a(18) of the Commodity Exchange Act, as amended), and the Transaction was subject to individual negotiation.

  

	 	(d)	Party A shall deliver to Party B a properly executed Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) Form W-9 or similar documentation establishing an exemption from backup withholding under the Internal Revenue Code
of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).

 Extraordinary Dividends: 

If a record date for an Extraordinary Dividend occurs on or after the Effective Date, but prior to the Maturity Date (such date subject to
deferral by up to 45 Scheduled Trading Days in connection with any deferral of a Settlement Date beyond the originally scheduled Maturity Date pursuant to the provisions opposite the caption “Settlement Date” above), Party B shall pay an
amount, as determined by the Calculation Agent, in cash equal to the product of (a) such Extraordinary Dividend, and (b) the number of Base Shares on such record date (in the case of any such record date that occurs during an Unwind
Period, subject to reduction by the Calculation Agent by a number of Shares equal to the number of Settlement Shares relating to such Unwind Period for which Party A has unwound its hedge), to Party A on the earlier of (i) the date on which
such Extraordinary Dividend is paid by the Issuer to holders of record of the Shares and (ii) the Maturity Date (such date subject to deferral by up to 45 Scheduled Trading Days in connection with any deferral of a Settlement Date beyond the
originally scheduled Maturity Date pursuant to the provisions opposite the caption “Settlement Date” above). “Extraordinary Dividend” means the per Share amount of any cash dividend or distribution declared by the Issuer
with respect to the Shares that is specified by the board of directors of the Issuer as an “extraordinary” dividend. 
 Acceleration
Events: An Acceleration Event shall occur if: 
  

	 	(a)	Stock Borrow Events. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, if in its commercially reasonable judgment Party A (or its affiliate) is unable to hedge Party A’s exposure to the Transaction (a
“Stock Borrow Event”) because (i) of the lack of sufficient Shares being made available for Share borrowing by lenders or (ii) it (or its affiliate) would incur a stock loan cost of more than the Borrow Cost Threshold,
Party A shall have the right to designate any Scheduled Trading Day to be a Settlement Date on at least three Scheduled Trading Days’ notice and to select the number of Settlement Shares for such Settlement Date; provided that
(x) prior to the effectiveness of the designation of a Stock Borrow Event under this paragraph (a), Party B may refer Party A to a lending party reasonably acceptable to Party A that will lend Party A (or its affiliate) Shares within such three
Scheduled Trading Day period, on terms reasonably acceptable to Party A and at a stock loan cost of no more than the Borrow Cost Threshold and (y) the number of Settlement Shares for any Settlement Date so designated by Party A shall not exceed
the number of Shares as to which such inability to, or cost limitation with respect to, borrow exists; or 

  

	 	(b)	Dividends and Other Distributions. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, if on any day occurring after the Trade Date Party B declares a distribution, issue or dividend to existing holders of the Shares of
(i) any cash dividend (other than an Extraordinary Dividend) to the extent all cash dividends (excluding Extraordinary Dividends) having an ex-dividend date during the period from and including any Forward Price Reduction Date (with each of the
Trade Date and the Maturity Date and each date after the Maturity Date being a Forward Price Reduction Date for purposes of this clause (b) only) to but excluding the next subsequent Forward Price Reduction Date exceeds, on a per Share basis,
the Forward Price Reduction Amount set forth opposite the first date of any such period on Schedule I or (ii) share capital or securities of another issuer acquired or owned (directly or indirectly) by Party B as a result of a spin-off or other
similar transaction or (iii) any other type of securities (other than Shares), rights or warrants or other assets, which distribution, issue or dividend has a record date on or prior to the final Settlement Date, then Party A shall have the
right to designate any Scheduled Trading Day to be a Settlement Date for the entire Transaction on at least three Scheduled Trading Days’ notice and to select the number of Shares for such Settlement Date; or 

 

	 	(c)	ISDA Early Termination Date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the Agreement or in the Definitions, if Party A has the right to designate an Early Termination Date pursuant to Section 6 of
the Agreement, Party A shall have the right to designate any Scheduled Trading Day to be a Settlement Date for the entire Transaction on at least three Scheduled Trading Days’ notice; or 

 

	 	(d)	Board Approval of Merger. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, if on any day occurring after the Trade Date the board of directors of Party B votes to approve, or there is a public announcement of, in
either case any action that, if consummated, would constitute a Merger Event (as defined in the Equity Definitions), Party B shall notify Party A of any such vote or announcement within three Scheduled Trading Days (and, in the case of any such
vote, Party B also covenants and agrees to publicly announce the occurrence of such vote within three Scheduled Trading Days thereof). Thereafter, Party A shall have the right to designate any Scheduled Trading Day to be a Settlement Date for the
entire Transaction on at least three Scheduled Trading Days’ notice; or 

  
 9 

	 	(e)	Other Events. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the Agreement or in the Equity Definitions, if an Insolvency, an Insolvency Filing, a Nationalization, a Delisting (as provided further in the
next sentence) or a Change in Law (other than as specified in clause (Y) of the definition thereof) occurs (provided that the definition of “Change in Law” shall be amended by addition of clause (C) to read as follows:
“(C) due to the effectiveness or implementation of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010”), Party A shall have the right to designate any Scheduled Trading Day to be a Settlement Date for the entire
Transaction on at least three Scheduled Trading Days’ notice and Party A shall be the Determining Party. In addition to the provisions of Section 12.6(a)(iii) of the Equity Definitions, it will also constitute a Delisting if the Exchange
is located in the United States and the Shares are not immediately re-listed, re-traded or re-quoted on any of The New York Stock Exchange, NYSE MKT, The NASDAQ Global Select Market or The NASDAQ Global Market (or their respective successors); if
the Shares are immediately re-listed, re-traded or re-quoted on any such exchange, such exchange shall be deemed to be the Exchange. 

Termination Settlement: 
 If a Settlement
Date is specified following an Acceleration Event (a “Termination Settlement Date”), Physical Settlement shall apply with respect to such Termination Settlement Date as set forth above, subject to the provisions described under
“Limit on Beneficial Ownership” below. If, upon designation of a Termination Settlement Date by Party A, Party B fails to deliver the Settlement Shares relating to such Termination Settlement Date when due or otherwise fails to perform its
obligations in connection therewith, it shall be an Event of Default with respect to Party B and Section 6 of the Agreement shall apply. If an Acceleration Event occurs during an Unwind Period relating to a number of Settlement Shares to which
Cash Settlement or Net Share Settlement applies, then on the Termination Settlement Date relating to such Acceleration Event, notwithstanding any election to the contrary by Party B, Cash Settlement or Net Share Settlement shall apply to the portion
of the Settlement Shares relating to such Unwind Period as to which Party A has unwound its hedge and Physical Settlement shall apply in respect of (x) the remainder (if any) of such Settlement Shares and (y) the Settlement Shares
designated by Party A in respect of such Termination Settlement Date. 
 Certain Changes In Law: 

Upon the occurrence of any Change In Law specified in clause (Y) of the definition thereof, Party A and Party B agree to negotiate in good
faith for at least 20 calendar days to amend this Confirmation to take account of the resulting “materially increased cost” as such phrase is used in clause (Y) of the definition of “Change In Law.” Such amendment may, if
agreed by Party A and Party B, result in a Change In Law specified in clause (Y) of the definition thereof being treated as if it were a Change In Law specified in clause (X) of the definition thereof, as described in clause (e) under
the heading “Acceleration Events” above. If, after negotiating in good faith for at least 20 calendar days to so amend this Confirmation, Party A and Party B do not agree on such an amendment, the relevant Change In Law specified in clause
(Y) of the definition thereof shall be treated as if it were a Change In Law specified in clause (X) of the definition thereof, as described in clause (e) under the heading “Acceleration Events” above. 

Rule 10b5-1: 
 It is the intent of Party A
and Party B that the purchase of Shares by Party A during any Unwind Period comply with the requirements of Rule 10b5-1(c)(1)(i)(B) of the Exchange Act and that this Confirmation shall be interpreted to comply with the requirements of Rule
10b5-1(c). 
 Party B acknowledges that, except as otherwise provided herein, (i) during any Unwind Period Party B does not have, and
shall not attempt to exercise, any influence over how, when or whether to effect purchases of Shares by Party A (or its agent or affiliate) in connection with this Confirmation and (ii) Party B is entering into the Agreement and this
Confirmation in good faith and not as part of a plan or scheme to evade compliance with federal securities laws including, without limitation, Rule 10b-5 promulgated under the Exchange Act. 

  
 10 

 Party B hereby agrees with Party A that during any Unwind Period Party B shall not communicate,
directly or indirectly, any Material Non-Public Information (as defined herein) to any Equity Personnel (as defined below). For purposes of the Transaction, “Material Non-Public Information” means information relating to
Party B or the Shares that (a) has not been widely disseminated by wire service, in one or more newspapers of general circulation, by communication from Party B to its shareholders or in a press release, or contained in a public filing made by
Party B with the Securities and Exchange Commission and (b) a reasonable investor might consider to be of importance in making an investment decision to buy, sell or hold Shares. For the avoidance of doubt and solely by way of illustration,
information should be presumed “material” if it relates to such matters as dividend increases or decreases, earnings estimates, changes in previously released earnings estimates, significant expansion or curtailment of operations, a
significant increase or decline of orders, significant merger or acquisition proposals or agreements, significant new products or discoveries, extraordinary borrowing, major litigation, liquidity problems, extraordinary management developments,
purchase or sale of substantial assets, or other similar information. For purposes of the Transaction, “Equity Personnel” means any employee on the trading side of the Equity Derivatives Group of Wells Fargo Bank, National
Association and does not include Mr. Michael Collins, Ms. Mary Lou Guttmann, Ms. Jenny Dahlen, Mr. Andrew Ralston and Mr. Michael D. Golden (or any other person or persons reasonably designated from time to time by the
Compliance Group of Party A, subject to written notice of such designation being delivered by Party A to Party B). 
 Interpretive Letter: 

The parties intend for this Confirmation to constitute a “Contract” as described in the letter dated October 6, 2003 submitted
by Robert W. Reeder and Leslie N. Silverman to Paula Dubberly of the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Staff”) to which the Staff responded in an interpretive letter dated October 9, 2003. 

Restricted Shares: 
 If Party B is unable
to comply with clause (h) of “Covenants of Party B” above in this Section 3 because of a change in law or a change in interpretation or the policy of the Securities and Exchange Commission or its staff, or Party A otherwise
determines in its reasonable, good faith opinion based on the advice of outside counsel that any Shares to be delivered to Party A by Party B may not be freely returned by Party A to securities lenders as described in clause (h) of
“Covenants of Party B” above in this Section 3, then the Calculation Agent may, in consultation with Party B, make adjustments to the terms of the Transaction to preserve the economic intent of the parties, including adjustments to
the Forward Price to reflect any lack of liquidity in restricted Shares, and the parties shall work together in good faith to effect settlement of the Transaction in a commercially reasonable manner and in compliance with applicable law and
regulations. 
 Maximum Share Delivery: 

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Confirmation, in no event will Party B be required to deliver in settlement of this Transaction on
any Settlement Date, whether pursuant to Physical Settlement, Net Share Settlement or Termination Settlement, more than the number of Base Shares to Party A. 

Assignment: 
 Party A may assign or
transfer any of its rights or delegate any of its duties hereunder to any affiliate of Party A without the prior written consent of Party B, so long as the senior unsecured debt rating (the “Credit Rating”) of such affiliate (or any
guarantor of its obligations under the Transaction) is equal to or greater than the Credit Rating of the ultimate parent of Party A, as specified by Standard and Poor’s Rating Services or Moody’s Investor Service, Inc., at the time of such
assignment or transfer. In connection with any assignment or transfer pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, (i) the guarantee of any guarantor of the relevant transferee’s obligation shall constitute a Credit Support Document
under the Agreement and (ii) the assignee or transferee shall deliver to Party B a properly executed IRS Form W-9 or Form W-8 (together with all necessary 

  
 11 

 
attachments) establishing an exemption from backup withholding under the Code. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Confirmation to the contrary requiring or allowing Party A to purchase
or receive any Shares from Party B, Party A may designate any of its affiliates to purchase or receive such Shares or otherwise to perform Party A’s obligations in respect of the Transaction and any such designee may assume such obligations,
and Party A shall be discharged of its obligations to Party B only to the extent of any such performance. Any affiliate of Party A designated as described in the immediately preceding sentence shall deliver to Party B a properly executed IRS Form
W-9 or Form W-8 (together with all necessary attachments) establishing an exemption from backup withholding under the Code. 
 Matters Relating to
Agent: 
 Each party agrees and acknowledges that: 

(a) Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, as agent, (the “Agent”) acts solely as agent for Party A on a disclosed basis with
respect to the transactions contemplated hereunder. 
 (b) The Agent is registered as a broker-dealer with the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission and the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA), is acting hereunder for and on behalf of Party A solely in its capacity as agent for Party A pursuant to instructions from Party A, and is not and will not be acting as Party
B’s agent, broker, advisor or fiduciary in any respect under or in connection with this Transaction. 
 (c) In addition to acting as
Party A’s agent in executing the Transaction, the Agent is authorized from time to time to give written payment and/or delivery instructions to Party B directing it to make its payments and/or deliveries under the Transaction to an account of
the Agent for remittance to Party A (or its designee), and for that purpose any such payment or delivery by Party B to the Agent shall be treated as a payment or delivery to Party A. 

(d) Except as otherwise provided herein, any and all notices, demands, or communications of any kind transmitted in writing by either Party A
or Party B under or in connection with the Transaction will be transmitted exclusively by such party to the other party through the Agent at the following address: 

Wells Fargo Securities, LLC 375 Park Avenue 

New York, NY 10152

 Telephone No.: (212) 214-6100 

Facsimile No.: (212) 214-5913 

(e) The Agent shall have no responsibility or liability to Party A or Party B for or arising from (1) any failure by either Party A or
Party B to perform any of their respective obligations under or in connection with the Transaction, (2) the collection or enforcement of any such obligations, or (3) the exercise of any of the rights and remedies of either Party A or Party
B under or in connection with the Transaction. Each of Party A and Party B agrees to proceed solely against the other to collect or enforce any such obligations, and the Agent shall have no liability in respect of the Transaction except for its
gross negligence or willful misconduct in performing its duties as the agent of Party A. 
 (f) Upon written request, the Agent will furnish
to Party A and Party B the date and time of the execution of the Transaction and a statement as to the source and amount of any remuneration received or to be received by the Agent in connection with the Transaction. 

Indemnity: 
 Party B agrees to indemnify
Party A and its affiliates and their respective directors, officers, agents and controlling parties (Party A and each such affiliate or person being an “Indemnified Party”) from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and
liabilities, joint and several, incurred by or asserted against such 

  
 12 

 
Indemnified Party arising out of, in connection with, or relating to, any breach of any covenant or representation made by Party B in this Confirmation or the Agreement. In addition, Party B will
reimburse any Indemnified Party for all reasonable expenses (including reasonable legal fees and reasonable expenses) in connection with the investigation of, preparation for, or defense of any pending or threatened claim or any action or proceeding
arising therefrom (whether or not such Indemnified Party is a party thereto) at the time, and only to the extent that the relevant loss, claim, damage, liability or expense is found in a final and nonappealable judgment by a court of competent
jurisdiction to have resulted from a breach of a covenant or representation made by Party B in this Confirmation or the Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, Party B will not be liable under this Indemnity paragraph to the extent that any loss,
claim, damage, liability or expense is found in a final and nonappealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from Party A’s gross negligence, fraud, bad faith and/or willful misconduct or a breach of any
representation or covenant of Party A contained in this Confirmation or the Agreement.

	4.	The Agreement is further supplemented by the following provisions: 

 Agreement Regarding Set-off and
Collateral: 
 Notwithstanding Section 6(f) or any other provision of the Agreement or any other agreement between the parties to
the contrary, the obligations of Party B hereunder are not secured by any collateral. Obligations under the Transaction shall not be set off against any other obligations of the parties, whether arising under the Agreement, this Confirmation, under
any other agreement between the parties hereto, by operation of law or otherwise, and no other obligations of the parties shall be set off against obligations under the Transaction, whether arising under the Agreement, this Confirmation, under any
other agreement between the parties hereto, by operation of law or otherwise, and each party hereby waives any such right of setoff. In calculating any amounts under Section 6(e) of the Agreement, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the
Agreement, (a) separate amounts shall be calculated as set forth in such Section 6(e) with respect to (i) the Transaction and (ii) all other Transactions, and (b) such separate amounts shall be payable pursuant to
Section 6(d)(ii) of the Agreement. 
 Delivery of Cash: 

For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Confirmation shall be interpreted as requiring Party B to deliver cash in respect of the settlement
of the Transaction, except (i) as set forth under “Extraordinary Dividends” above or (ii) in circumstances where the cash settlement thereof is within Party B’s control (including, without limitation, where Party B so elects
to deliver cash or fails timely to deliver Shares in respect of such settlement). For the avoidance of doubt, the preceding sentence shall not be construed as limiting any damages that may be payable by Party B as a result of a breach of or an
indemnity under this Confirmation or the Agreement. 
 Status of Claims in Bankruptcy: 

Party A acknowledges and agrees that this confirmation is not intended to convey to Party A rights with respect to the transactions
contemplated hereby that are senior to the claims of common stockholders in any U.S. bankruptcy proceedings of Party B; provided, however, that nothing herein shall limit or shall be deemed to limit Party A’s right to pursue
remedies in the event of a breach by Party B of its obligations and agreements with respect to this Confirmation and the Agreement; and provided further that nothing herein shall limit or shall be deemed to limit Party A’s rights in
respect of any transaction other than the Transaction. 

  
 13 

 Limit on Beneficial Ownership: 

Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, Party A shall not have the “right to acquire” (within the meaning of NYSE Rule
312.04(g)) Shares hereunder and Party A shall not be entitled to take delivery of any Shares deliverable hereunder (in each case, whether in connection with the purchase of Shares on any Settlement Date or any Termination Settlement Date) to the
extent (but only to the extent) that, after such receipt of any Shares hereunder, and after taking into account any Shares deliverable to Party A on the same day pursuant to the Base Confirmation, (i) the Share Amount would exceed the
Applicable Share Limit, or (ii) Party A and each person subject to aggregation of Shares with Party A under Section 13 or Section 16 of the Exchange Act and rules promulgated thereunder (the “Party A Group”) would
directly or indirectly beneficially own (as such term is defined for purposes of Section 13 or Section 16 of the Exchange Act and rules promulgated thereunder) in excess of the lesser of (A) 7.5% of the then outstanding Shares or
(B) 6,230,554 Shares (the “Threshold Number of Shares”). Any purported delivery hereunder shall be void and have no effect to the extent (but only to the extent) that, after such delivery, and after taking into account any
Shares deliverable to Party A on the same day pursuant to the Base Confirmation, (i) the Share Amount would exceed the Applicable Share Limit or (ii) the Party A Group would directly or indirectly so beneficially own in excess of the
Threshold Number of Shares. If any delivery owed to Party A hereunder is not made, in whole or in part, as a result of this provision, Party B’s obligation to make such delivery shall not be extinguished, and Party B shall make such delivery as
promptly as practicable after, but in no event later than one Exchange Business Day after, Party A gives notice to Party B that, after such delivery, and after taking into account any Shares deliverable to Party A on the same day pursuant to the
Base Confirmation, (i) the Share Amount would not exceed the Applicable Share Limit and (ii) the Party A Group would not directly or indirectly so beneficially own in excess of the Threshold Number of Shares. 

The “Share Amount” as of any day is the number of Shares that Party A and any person whose ownership position would be
aggregated with that of Party A (Party A or any such person, a “Party A Person”) under any law, rule, regulation, regulatory order or organizational documents or contracts of Party B that are, in each case, applicable to ownership
of Shares (“Applicable Restrictions”), own, beneficially own, constructively own, control, hold the power to vote or otherwise meet a relevant definition of ownership of under any Applicable Restriction, as determined by Party A in
its reasonable discretion. The “Applicable Share Limit” means a number of Shares equal to (A) the minimum number of Shares that could give rise to reporting or registration obligations or other requirements (including obtaining
prior approval from any person or entity) of a Party A Person, or could result in an adverse effect on a Party A Person, under any Applicable Restriction, as determined by Party A in its reasonable discretion, minus (B) 1% of the number
of Shares outstanding. 
 Other Forwards: 

Party A acknowledges that Party B has entered into a substantially identical forward transaction for the Shares on the date hereof (the
“Other Additional Forward”) with an affiliate of J.P. Morgan Securities LLC (the “Other Forward Counterparty”). Party A and Party B agree that if Party B designates a Settlement Date with respect to the Other
Additional Forward and for which Cash Settlement or Net Share Settlement is applicable, and the resulting Unwind Period for the Other Additional Forward coincides for any period of time with an Unwind Period for the Transaction (the “Overlap
Unwind Period”), Party B shall notify Party A prior to the commencement of such Overlap Unwind Period of the first Exchange Business Day and length of such Overlap Unwind Period, and, subject to the immediately succeeding paragraph, Party A
shall only be permitted to purchase Shares to unwind its hedge in respect of the Transaction on every other Exchange Business Day that is not a Suspension Day during such Overlap Unwind Period, commencing on the second day of such Overlap Unwind
Period. 
 Party A additionally acknowledges that Party B has entered into a substantially identical forward transaction with respect to
4,000,000 Shares pursuant to a confirmation dated as of September 24, 2013 (the “Other Base Confirmation”) with the Other Forward Counterparty. Party A and Party B agree that if Party B designates a Settlement Date under the
Other Base Confirmation for which Cash Settlement or Net Share Settlement is applicable, and the resulting Unwind Period under the Other Base Confirmation coincides, or would coincide if not for the provisions set forth under clause (y) below,
for any period of time with an Unwind Period for the Transaction (such period, the “Other Matching Unwind Period”), then Party B shall notify Party A prior to 

  
 14 

 
the commencement of such Other Matching Unwind Period of the first Exchange Business Day and the length of such Other Matching Unwind Period and (x) if (and for so long as) the Other
Matching Unwind Period also coincides for any period of time with an Unwind Period under the Base Confirmation, Party A shall only be permitted to purchase Shares to unwind its hedge in respect of the Transaction on every other Exchange Business Day
that is not a Suspension Day during the Other Matching Unwind Period, commencing on the second day of such Other Matching Unwind Period and (y) in all other cases (including, for the avoidance of doubt, if the Unwind Period for the Transaction
coincides for any period of time with the Overlap Unwind Period and the Other Matching Unwind Period but not with an Unwind Period under the Base Confirmation), for the duration of the Other Matching Unwind Period, the Unwind Period under this
Confirmation shall not commence (or, if the Unwind Period under this Confirmation has already commenced, such Unwind Period shall be suspended) until the Exchange Business Day immediately following the date the Other Matching Unwind Period ends.
Party B shall promptly notify Party A of the end of any Other Matching Unwind Period. 
 Severability: 

If any term, provision, covenant or condition of this Confirmation, or the application thereof to any party or circumstance, shall be held to
be invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part for any reason, the remaining terms, provisions, covenants, and conditions hereof shall continue in full force and effect as if this Confirmation had been executed with the invalid or unenforceable
provision eliminated, so long as this Confirmation as so modified continues to express, without material change, the original intentions of the parties as to the subject matter of this Confirmation and the deletion of such portion of this
Confirmation will not substantially impair the respective benefits or expectations of parties to this Agreement; provided, however, that this severability provision shall not be applicable if any provision of Section 2, 5, 6 or 13
of the Agreement (or any definition or provision in Section 14 to the extent that it relates to, or is used in or in connection with any such Section) shall be so held to be invalid or unenforceable.
