For greater clarity, with respect to any Settlement Date (x) in respect of which Cash Settlement applies, Party A shall be deemed to have completed unwinding its hedge in respect of the portion of this Transaction to be settled on such Settlement Date when it purchases (or, to the extent applicable, unwinds derivative positions (including, but not limited to, swaps or options related to the Shares), resulting in Party A’s synthetic purchase of) an aggregate number of Shares equal to the number of Settlement Shares for such Settlement Date; and (y) in respect of which Net Share Settlement applies, Party A shall be deemed to have completed unwinding its hedge in respect of the portion of this Transaction to be settled on such Settlement Date when it purchases (or, to the extent applicable, unwinds derivative positions (including, but not limited to, swaps or options related to the Shares), resulting in Party A’s synthetic purchase of) an aggregate number of Shares having an aggregate purchase price equal to the Net Share Purchase Price for such Settlement Date.

Notwithstanding anything in the 2002 Definitions to the contrary, the Calculation Agent may make an adjustment pursuant to Calculation Agent Adjustment to any one or more of the Base Amount, the Forward Price and any other variable relevant to the settlement or payment terms of this Transaction to account for the diluting or concentrative effect of the applicable Potential Adjustment Event on the theoretical value of the Shares.
Additional Adjustment:		If the Calculation Agent determines that the actual cost to Party A, over any one-month period, of borrowing a number of Shares equal to the Base Amount to hedge its exposure to this Transaction exceeds a weighted average rate equal to 25 basis points per annum, the Calculation Agent shall reduce the Forward Price in order to compensate Party A for the amount by which such cost

-10-

		exceeded a weighted average rate equal to 25 basis points per annum during such period. The Calculation Agent shall notify Party B prior to making any such adjustment to the Forward Price and, upon the request of Party B, Party A shall provide adequate detail of its stock loan costs for the applicable one month period.

(g) Party B will not engage in any “distribution” (as defined in Regulation M under the Exchange Act (“Regulation M”)) that would cause a “restricted period” (as defined in Regulation M) to occur during any Unwind Period.

(b) In connection with bids and purchases of Shares in connection with any Cash Settlement or Net Share Settlement of this Transaction, Party A shall, and shall cause its affiliates to, execute such purchases to unwind its hedge of its exposure to this Transaction in compliance with the requirements of the safe harbor provided by Rule 10b-18 under the Exchange Act, as if such provisions were applicable to such purchases; provided that Party A’s obligations under this clause (b) shall be subject to applicable Securities and Exchange Commission or Staff no-action letters or interpretations as appropriate and subject to any delays between execution and reporting of a trade of the Shares on the applicable securities exchange or quotation system and other circumstances reasonably beyond Party A’s or such affiliates’ control.

Insolvency Filing:

-14-

to the other party (except for any liability in respect of any breach of representation or covenant by a party under this Confirmation prior to the date of such Insolvency Filing).

The parties hereto agree and acknowledge that (1) at any point prior to any Insolvency Filing in respect of the Issuer, Party B shall have the unilateral right to elect Physical Settlement of this Transaction pursuant to the provisions set forth above under the heading “Settlement Terms”; and (2) this Transaction shall automatically terminate on the date of any Insolvency Filing pursuant the provisions set forth in the immediately preceding paragraph solely to the extent that Party B failed to elect Physical Settlement of this Transaction pursuant to the provisions set forth above under the heading “Settlement Terms” prior to the relevant Insolvency Filing.

Extraordinary Dividends:

If a record date for an Extraordinary Dividend occurs during the period from, and including, the Effective Date to, but excluding, the Maturity Date (or, if later, the last date on which Shares are delivered by Party B to Party A in settlement of this Transaction), then, on the date on which Party B pays such Extraordinary Dividend to holders of record of the Shares, Party B shall pay, to Party A, an amount in cash equal to the product of such Extraordinary Dividend and the Base Amount as of such record date. “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 Party B as an “extraordinary” dividend.

Acceleration Events:

The following events shall each constitute an “Acceleration Event”:

(b) Dividends and Other Distributions. On any day occurring after the Trade Date and prior to the Maturity 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 the sum of all cash dividends having an ex-dividend date during the period from and including any Forward Price Reduction Date (with the Trade Date being a Forward Price Reduction Date for purposes of this clause (b) only) to but excluding the next subsequent Forward Price Reduction Date (with the Maturity Date being the final Forward Price Reduction Date for purposes of this clause (b)(i) only) exceeds, on a per Share basis, the Forward Price Reduction Amount set forth opposite the relevant Forward Price Reduction Date on Schedule I or (ii) share capital or securities of another issuer acquired or owned (directly or

-15-

indirectly) by Party B as a result of a spin-off or other similar transaction, for which the related record date occurs during the period from, and including, the Effective Date to, but excluding, the Maturity Date (or, if later, the last date on which Shares are delivered by Party B to Party A in settlement of this Transaction) or (iii) any other type of securities (other than Shares), rights, warrants or other assets, for payment (cash or other consideration) at less than the prevailing market price as determined by the Calculation Agent for which the related record date occurs during the period from, and including, the Effective Date to, but excluding, the Maturity Date (or, if later, the last date on which Shares are delivered by Party B to Party A in settlement of this Transaction). To the extent the declaration of a distribution, issue or dividend contemplated by this paragraph (b) would also be considered to be the type of event to which Calculation Agent Adjustment would apply as specified under “Adjustments – Method of Adjustment” above, the provisions of this paragraph (b) will apply and Calculation Agent Adjustment shall not apply;

(c) ISDA Early Termination Date. Party A has the right to designate an Early Termination Date pursuant to Section 6 of the Agreement;

(d) Other ISDA Events. The date of the announcement of a firm intention to pursue a transaction that, if consummated, would result in an Extraordinary Event (other than a Nationalization, Insolvency or Delisting) (and, for the avoidance of doubt, no Additional Disruption Event shall be applicable with respect to the definition of Extraordinary Event contained in the 2002 Definitions) or the occurrence of any Change in Law, Insolvency, Nationalization or Delisting; provided that the definition of “Tender Offer” provided in Section 12.1(d) of the 2002 Definitions is hereby amended by replacing “10%” in the third line thereof with “20%”; provided further that in case of a Delisting, in addition to the provisions of Section 12.6(a)(iii) of the 2002 Definitions, (x) 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, the NASDAQ Global Select Market or the NASDAQ Global Market (or their respective successors) and (y) if the Shares are immediately re-listed, re-traded or re-quoted on any such exchange, then such exchange or quotation system shall be deemed to be the Exchange; provided further that the definition of “Change in Law” provided in Section 12.9(a)(ii) of the 2002 Definitions is hereby amended by replacing the phrase “the interpretation” in the third line thereof with the phrase “or public announcement of the formal or informal interpretation”; and provided further that “any applicable law or regulation”, as used in Section 12.9(a)(ii) of the 2002 Definitions shall include the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010, any rules and regulations promulgated thereunder and any similar law or regulation, without regard to Section 739 of the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx

Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 or any similar legal certainty provision in any legislation enacted or rule or regulation promulgated, and the consequences set forth below under “Termination Settlement” shall apply to any Change in Law arising from any such act, rule or regulation; or

(e) Ownership Event. The Calculation Agent determines that, on any day, as a result of this Transaction, the Share Amount (as defined below) for such day is equal to or exceeds the Post-Effective Limit (as defined below) for such day (if any applies).

For purposes of clause (e) above, 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 or regulatory order that for any reason becomes applicable to ownership of Shares after the Trade Date (“Applicable Laws”), owns, beneficially owns, constructively owns, controls, holds the power to vote or otherwise meets a relevant definition of ownership of under the Applicable Laws, as determined by the Calculation Agent. The “Post-Effective Limit” means (x) the minimum number of Shares that would 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 would result in an adverse effect on a Party A Person, under the Applicable Laws, as determined by the Calculation Agent, minus (y) 0.5% of the number of Shares outstanding.

Party A represents and warrants to and agrees with Party B that (i) Party A does not know, as of the Trade Date, of any event or circumstance that will cause the Share Amount to exceed the Post-Effective Limit on any day during the term of this Transaction and (ii) Party A will not knowingly cause the Share Amount to equal or exceed the Post-Effective Limit on any day during the term of this Transaction.

For the avoidance of doubt, if any of the above events also constitutes an Insolvency Filing, then the consequences set forth under “Insolvency Filing” above shall apply.

Termination Settlement:

Upon the occurrence of any Acceleration Event, Party A shall have the right to designate, upon at least one Scheduled Trading Day’s notice, any Scheduled Trading Day following such occurrence to be a Settlement Date hereunder (a “Termination Settlement Date”) to which Physical Settlement shall apply, and to select the number of Settlement Shares relating to such Termination Settlement Date; provided in the case of an Acceleration Event arising out of an Ownership Event, the number of Settlement Shares so designated by Party A shall not exceed the number of Shares necessary to reduce the Share Amount to the Post-Effective Limit and (ii) in the case of an Acceleration Event arising out of a Stock Borrow Event the number of Settlement Shares so designated by Party A shall not exceed the number of Shares as to which such Stock Borrow Event exists. If, upon designation of a Termination Settlement Date by Party A pursuant to the preceding sentence, Party B fails to deliver the Settlement Shares relating to such Termination Settlement Date when due or otherwise fails to perform obligations within its control in

-17-

respect of this Transaction, 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, then, on the Termination Settlement Date relating to such Acceleration Event, notwithstanding any election to the contrary by Party B, (i) the Settlement Date for such Unwind Period shall be the Termination Settlement Date; and (ii) 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 relating to such Unwind Period and (y) the Settlement Shares designated by Party A in respect of such Termination Settlement Date. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES WILL THE SETTLEMENT AMOUNT UPON EARLY TERMINATION OR AN ACCELERATION EVENT INCLUDE AN ADJUSTMENT FOR THE EFFECTS OF AN EXTRAORDINARY DIVIDEND OR A CHANGE IN EXPECTED DIVIDENDS.

Private Placement Procedures:

If Party B is unable to comply with the provisions of “Covenant of Party B” above because of a change in law or a change in the policy of the Securities and Exchange Commission or its staff, or Party A otherwise determines that in its reasonable opinion any Settlement Shares to be delivered to Party A by Party B may not be freely returned by Party A or its affiliates to securities lenders as described under “Covenant of Party B” above, then delivery of any such Settlement Shares (the “Restricted Shares”) shall be effected pursuant to Annex A hereto, unless waived by Party A.

Rule 10b5-1:

It is the intent of Party A and Party B that following any election of Cash Settlement or Net Share Settlement by Party B, 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 (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.

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 Trading Personnel (as defined below). For purposes of this 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

-18-

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 this Transaction, “Trading Personnel” means any employee on the trading side of Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx & Co. LLC and does not include Xxxxxxx Xxxxx.

Maximum Share Delivery:

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Confirmation, in no event will Party B be required to deliver on any Settlement Date, whether pursuant to Physical Settlement, Net Share Settlement, Termination Settlement or any Private Placement Settlement, more than a number of Shares equal to 1.75, multiplied by the initial Base Amount to Party A, subject to reduction by the aggregate number of Shares, if any, delivered by Party B on any prior Settlement Date.

Transfer and Assignment:

Party A may assign or transfer any of its rights or delegate any of its duties hereunder, without the prior written consent of Party B, to any affiliate of Party A whose obligations hereunder and under the Agreement are guaranteed by Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx, so long as (a) such assignee or transferee is organized under the laws of the United States, any State thereof or the District of Columbia; (b) Party B will not be required to pay to such assignee or transferee an amount in respect of an Indemnifiable Tax under Section 2(d)(i)(4) of the Agreement greater than the amount in respect of which Party B would have been required to pay Party A in the absence of such assignment or transfer; (c) Party B will not receive a payment from which an amount has been withheld or deducted on account of a Tax under Section 2(d)(i) of the Agreement in excess of that which Party A would have been required to so withhold or deduct in the absence of such assignment or transfer; and (d) no Event of Default, Potential Event of Default or Termination Event will occur as a result of such assignment or transfer. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Confirmation to the contrary requiring or allowing Party A to purchase, sell, receive or deliver any Shares or other securities to or from Party B, Party A may designate any of its affiliates to purchase, sell, receive or deliver such Shares or other securities and otherwise to perform Party A’s obligations in respect of this Transaction, and any such designee may assume such obligations. Party A shall be discharged of its obligations to Party B to the extent of any such performance.

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,

-19-

joint and several, incurred by or asserted against such Indemnified Party arising out of any breach of any covenant or representation made by Party B in this Confirmation or the Agreement, and Party B will reimburse any Indemnified Party for all reasonable expenses (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) as they are incurred 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. Party B will not be liable under this Indemnity paragraph to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense is found in a final and nonappealable judgment by a court to have resulted from Party A’s negligence or willful misconduct.

Notice:

Non-Reliance:		Applicable
Additional Acknowledgments:		Applicable
Agreements and Acknowledgments Regarding Hedging Activities:		Applicable

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

No Collateral or Setoff:

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 this 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 this 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) this 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 this Transaction, except in circumstances where the required cash settlement thereof is permitted for classification of the contract as equity by ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging as in effect on the Trade Date (including, without limitation, where Party B so elects to deliver cash or fails timely to elect to deliver Shares in respect of such settlement).

-20-

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 this Transaction.

Limit on Beneficial Ownership:

Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, Party A shall not be entitled to take delivery of any Shares deliverable hereunder (whether in connection with the purchase of Shares on any Settlement Date or any Termination Settlement Date, any Private Placement Settlement or otherwise) to the extent (but only to the extent) that, after such receipt of any Shares hereunder, (i) the Share Amount would exceed the Post-Effective Limit, (ii) Party A’s ultimate parent entity would purchase, acquire or take (as such terms are used in the Federal Power Act) at any time on the relevant date in excess of 8.0% of the outstanding Shares or (iii) 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 8.0% of the then outstanding Shares (each of such events in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), an “Excess Ownership Position”). Any purported delivery hereunder shall be void and have no effect to the extent (but only to the extent) that, after such delivery, an Excess Ownership Position would exist. 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, an Excess Ownership Position would not exist. Party A shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to eliminate the existence of an Excess Ownership Position prior to any Settlement Date.

In addition, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if any delivery owed to Party A hereunder is not made, in whole or in part, as a result of the immediately preceding paragraph, Party A shall be permitted to make any payment due in respect of such Shares to Party B in two or more tranches that correspond in amount to the number of Shares delivered by Party B to Party A pursuant to the immediately preceding paragraph.

Acknowledgements:

The parties hereto intend for:

ANNEX A

PRIVATE PLACEMENT PROCEDURES

(i) If Party B delivers the Restricted Shares pursuant to this clause (i) (a “Private Placement Settlement”), then delivery of Restricted Shares by Party B shall be effected in customary (for issuers with a market capitalization comparable to, and in the same industry as, Party B) private placement procedures with respect to such Restricted Shares reasonably acceptable to Party A; provided that if, on or before the date that a Private Placement Settlement would occur, Party B has taken, or caused to be taken, any action that would make unavailable either the exemption pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act for the sale by Party B to Party A (or any affiliate designated by Party A) of the Restricted Shares or the exemption pursuant to Section 4(1) or Section 4(3) of the Securities Act for resales of the Restricted Shares by Party A (or any such affiliate of Party A) or Party B fails to deliver the Restricted Shares when due or otherwise fails to perform obligations within its control in respect of a Private Placement Settlement, it shall be an Event of Default with respect to Party B and Section 6 of the Agreement shall apply. The Private Placement Settlement of such Restricted Shares shall include customary (for issuers with a market capitalization comparable to, and in the same industry as, Party B) representations, covenants, blue sky and other governmental filings and/or registrations, indemnities to Party A, due diligence rights (for Party A or any designated buyer of the Restricted Shares by Party A), opinions and certificates, and such other documentation as is customary (for issuers with a market capitalization comparable to, and in the same industry as, Party B) for private placement agreements, all reasonably acceptable to Party A. In the case of a Private Placement Settlement, Party A shall, in its good faith discretion, adjust the amount of Restricted Shares to be delivered to Party A hereunder in a commercially reasonable manner to reflect the fact that such Restricted Shares may not be freely returned to securities lenders by Party A and may only be saleable by Party A at a discount to reflect the lack of liquidity in Restricted Shares. Notwithstanding the Agreement or this Confirmation, the date of delivery of such Restricted Shares shall be the second Clearance System Business Day following notice by Party A to Party B of the number of Restricted Shares to be delivered pursuant to this clause (i). For the avoidance of doubt, delivery of Restricted Shares shall be due as set forth in the previous sentence and not be due on the Settlement Date or Termination Settlement Date that would otherwise be applicable.

(ii) If Party B delivers any Restricted Shares in respect of this Transaction, Party B agrees that (i) such Shares may be transferred by and among Party A and its affiliates and (ii) after the minimum “holding period” within the meaning of Rule 144(d) under the Securities Act has elapsed after the applicable Settlement Date, Party B shall (so long as Party A or any such affiliate is not an “affiliate” of Party B within the meaning of Rule 144 under the Securities Act) promptly remove, or cause the transfer agent for the Shares to remove, any legends referring to any

A-1

transfer restrictions from such Shares upon delivery by Party A (or such affiliate of Party A) to Party B or such transfer agent of seller’s and broker’s representation letters customarily delivered by Party A or its affiliates in connection with resales of restricted securities pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act, each without any further requirement for the delivery of any certificate, consent, agreement, opinion of counsel, notice or any other document, any transfer tax stamps or payment of any other amount or any other action by Party A (or such affiliate of Party A).

Ladies and Gentlemen:

In consideration of PPL CORPORATION (hereinafter “Counterparty”) having entered into or entering into that certain trade dated as of April 10, 2012, Confirm Number SC1:3218644 with Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx & Co. LLC (hereinafter “Obligor”) (such confirmation exchanged between the parties hereinafter the “Confirmation”), Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx, a Delaware corporation (hereinafter “Guarantor”), hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees to Counterparty, with effect from the date of the Confirmation, the due and punctual payment of all amounts payable by Obligor under the Confirmation when the same shall become due and payable, whether on scheduled payment dates, upon demand, upon declaration of termination or otherwise, in accordance with, and subject to, the terms of the Confirmation and giving effect to any applicable grace period. Upon failure of Obligor punctually to pay any such amounts, and upon written demand by Counterparty to Guarantor at its address set forth in the signature block of this guarantee (the “Guarantee”) (or to such other address as Guarantor may specify in writing), Guarantor agrees to pay or cause to be paid such amounts; provided that delay by Counterparty in giving such demand shall in no event affect Guarantor’s obligations under this Guarantee. This Guarantee is of payment and not of collection.

Guarantor hereby agrees that its obligations hereunder shall be continuing and unconditional and will not be discharged except by complete payment of the amounts payable under the Confirmation, irrespective of (1) any claim as to the Confirmation’s validity, regularity or enforceability or the lack of authority of Obligor to execute or deliver the Confirmation; or (2) any change in or amendment to the Confirmation; or (3) any waiver or consent by Counterparty with respect to any provisions thereof; or (4) the absence or existence of any action to enforce the Confirmation, or the recovery of any judgment against Obligor or of any action to enforce a judgment against Obligor under the Confirmation; or (5) the dissolution, winding up, liquidation or insolvency of Obligor, including any discharge of obligations therefrom; or (6) any similar circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor generally.

Guarantor hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand on Obligor for payment or otherwise (except as provided hereinabove), filing of claims, requirement of a prior proceeding against Obligor and protest or notice, except as provided for in the Confirmation with respect to amounts payable by Obligor. If at any time payment under the Confirmation is rescinded or must be otherwise restored or returned by Counterparty upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of Obligor or Guarantor or otherwise, Guarantor’s obligations hereunder with respect to such payment shall be reinstated upon such restoration or return being made by Counterparty.

Guarantor represents to Counterparty, as of the date hereof, that:

1. it is duly organized and validly existing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation and has full power and legal right to execute and deliver this Guarantee and to perform the provisions of this Guarantee on its part to be performed;

2. its execution, delivery and performance of this Guarantee have been and remain duly authorized by all necessary corporate action and do not contravene any provision of its certificate of incorporation or by-laws or any law, regulation or contractual restriction binding on it or its assets;

3. all consents, authorizations, approvals and clearances (including, without limitation, any necessary exchange control approval) and notifications, reports and registrations requisite for its due execution, delivery and performance of this Guarantee have been obtained from or, as the case may be, filed with the relevant governmental authorities having jurisdiction and remain in full force and effect and all conditions thereof have been duly complied with and no other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any governmental authority having jurisdiction is required for such execution, delivery or performance; and

4. this Guarantee is its legal, valid and binding obligation enforceable against it in accordance with its terms except as enforcement hereof may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ right or by general equity principles.

Each of the provisions contained in this Guarantee shall be severable and distinct from one another and if one or more of such provisions are now or hereafter becomes invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Guarantee shall not in any way be affected, prejudiced or impaired thereby.

By accepting this Guarantee and executing the Confirmation, Counterparty agrees that Guarantor shall be subrogated to all rights of Counterparty against Obligor in respect of any amounts paid by Guarantor pursuant to this Guarantee, provided that Guarantor shall be entitled to enforce or to receive any payment arising out of or based upon such right of subrogation only to the extent that it has paid all amounts payable by Obligor under the Confirmation.

This Guarantee shall expire on April 10, 2013, however, this guarantee may be terminated upon 15 days prior written notice to that effect actually received by Counterparty. Such expiration or termination shall not, however, affect or reduce Guarantor’s obligation hereunder for any liability of Obligor incurred with respect to transactions entered into by Obligor prior to such expiration.

This Guarantee shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without reference of its choice of law doctrine. All capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings assigned to them in the Confirmation.
