hereunder by such Indemnified Person, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Person from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding on terms reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Person. If the indemnification provided for in this paragraph (e) is unavailable to an Indemnified Person or insufficient in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein, then Counterparty under such paragraph, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Person thereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Person as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities. The remedies provided for in this paragraph (e) are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies which may otherwise be available to any Indemnified Party at law or in equity.

Counterparty further represents that there is no internal policy, whether written or oral, of Counterparty that would prohibit Counterparty from entering into any aspect of this Transaction, including, but not limited to, the purchases of Shares to be made pursuant hereto. |
| (j) | Transfer or Assignment. Neither party may transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Transaction without the prior written consent of the non-transferring party; provided that if, as determined at JPMorgan’s sole discretion, (x) its “beneficial ownership” (within the meaning of Section 16 of the Exchange Act and rules promulgated thereunder) exceeds 8% of Counterparty’s outstanding Shares or (y) the product of the Number of Options and the Option Entitlement exceeds 15% of Counterparty’s outstanding Shares, JPMorgan may transfer or assign a number of Options sufficient to reduce such “beneficial ownership” to 7.5% or such product to 14.5%, as the case may be, to any third party with a rating for its long term, unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness of A+ or better by Standard and Poor’s Rating Group, Inc. or its successor |

In the event that JPMorgan so designates an Early Termination Date with respect to a portion of this Transaction, a payment shall be made pursuant to Section 6 of the Agreement and Section 9(n) hereof as if (i) an Early Termination Date had been designated in respect of a Transaction having terms identical to this Transaction and a Number of Options equal to the Terminated Portion, (ii) Counterparty shall be the sole Affected Party with respect to such partial termination and (iii) such Transaction shall be the only Terminated Transaction (and, for the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of Section 9(p) shall apply to any amount that is payable by JPMorgan to Counterparty pursuant to this sentence). Notwithstanding any other provision in this Confirmation to the contrary requiring or allowing JPMorgan to purchase, sell, receive or deliver any shares or other securities to or from Counterparty, JPMorgan may designate any of its affiliates to purchase, sell, receive or deliver such shares or other securities and otherwise to perform JPMorgan’s obligations in respect of this Transaction and any such designee may assume such obligations. JPMorgan shall be discharged of its obligations to Counterparty to the extent of any such performance.
| (k) | Staggered Settlement. JPMorgan may, by notice to Counterparty on or prior to any Settlement Date (a “Nominal Settlement Date”), elect to deliver the Shares on two or more dates (each, a “Staggered Settlement Date”) as follows: |
| (a) | in such notice, JPMorgan will specify to Counterparty the related Staggered Settlement Dates (the first of which will be such Nominal Settlement Date and the last of which will be no later than the twentieth (20th) Exchange Business Day following such Nominal Settlement Date) and the number of Shares that it will deliver on each Staggered Settlement Date on a payment versus delivery basis; |
| (b) | the aggregate number of Shares that JPMorgan will deliver to Counterparty hereunder on all such Staggered Settlement Dates will equal the number of Shares that JPMorgan would otherwise be required to deliver on such Nominal Settlement Date; and |
| (c) | if the Net Share Settlement terms set forth above were to apply on the Nominal Settlement Date, then the Net Share Settlement terms will apply on each Staggered Settlement Date, except that the Net Shares will be allocated among such Staggered Settlement Dates as specified by JPMorgan in the notice referred to in clause (a) above. |
| (l) | Damages. Neither party shall be liable under Section 6.10 of the Equity Definitions for special, indirect or consequential damages, even if informed of the possibility thereof. |

| (n) | Additional Provisions. |
(i) Notwithstanding Section 6(e) of the Agreement or Section 9.7 of the Equity Definitions, if, with respect to the transactions contemplated hereunder, (A) an Early Termination Date with respect to any Event of Default or any Termination Date, (B) a Merger Date with respect to any Merger Event (for the purpose of this provision, solely relating to the Merger Event contemplated by Section 9.2(a)(iii) of the Equity Definitions and which event shall not result from any action taken by, or within the control of, Counterparty), or (C) a date as of which Section 9.6(c)(ii)(A) or Section 9.6(c)(ii)(B) of the Equity Definitions applies with respect to any Extraordinary Event shall occur (any such date, the “Relevant Date”), then in lieu of calculating any payments hereunder pursuant to Section 6(e) of the Agreement or Section 9.7 of the Equity Definitions, as applicable, the Calculation Agent, in its sole discretion, shall determine the amount payable by JPMorgan to Counterparty, on the following basis:
(1) such Relevant Date shall be the sole Exercise Date hereunder and Automatic Exercise shall be applicable to the Number of Options;
(2) the Settlement Method shall be Net Share Settlement,
(3) JPMorgan shall deliver to Counterparty the Net Share Settlement Amount on the Settlement Date with respect to such Relevant Date; and
(4) Net Share Settlement Amount shall mean the number of Shares equal to the sum of (A) a fraction (x) the numerator of which is the product of (a) the Strike Price Differential on such Relevant Date, (b) the Number of Options and (c) the Option Entitlement, and (y) the denominator of which is the Relevant Price on such date and (B) the product of (x) the additional Shares per Option (the “Additional Shares”) determined by reference to the table attached as Annex A hereto based on the date on which such Relevant Date occurs and the Relevant Price on such date, (y) the Number of Options, and (z) the Option Entitlement.
(5) with respect to the determination of Additional Shares, if the actual Relevant Price is between two Relevant Price amounts in the table or the Relevant Date is between two Relevant Dates in the table, the Additional Shares shall be determined by a straight-line interpolation between the number of Additional Shares set forth for the next higher and next lower Relevant Price amounts and the two nearest Relevant Dates, as applicable, based on a 365-day year.
(6) with respect to any adjustment to the terms of the Transaction, the Calculation Agent, in its reasonable discretion, shall correspondingly adjust the Additional Shares and/or the Relevant Prices (as set forth in the table in Annex A hereto) as of any date of such adjustments. For the avoidance of doubt, any adjustment made to the Additional Shares and/or the Relevant Prices (each as set forth in the table in Annex A hereto)

(ii) For the avoidance of doubt, for the purposes of any calculation made by the Calculation Agent with respect to this Transaction pursuant to Section 9.1(c) of the Equity Definitions and relating to any Potential Adjustment Event that is within Counterparty’s control, such calculations shall be made based upon the Calculation Agent’s determination of the fair market value of the Shares or Options under the then prevailing circumstances, such determination may factor in any loss or cost incurred in connection with our terminating, liquidating, or re-establishing hedge positions relating to the Shares in connection with the Transaction and the Calculation Agent shall, in its sole discretion, make corresponding adjustments to the Additional Shares contained in Annex A hereto and, if applicable, to the Reference Prices contained in such Annex A.
| (o) | Setoff. In addition to and without limiting any rights of set-off that a party hereto may have as a matter of law, pursuant to contract or otherwise, upon the occurrence of an Early Termination Event, JPMorgan shall have the right to set off any obligation that it may have to Counterparty under this Confirmation, including without limitation any obligation to make any payment of cash or delivery of Shares to Counterparty, against any obligation Counterparty may have to JPMorgan under any other agreement between JPMorgan and Counterparty relating to Shares (each such contract or agreement, a “Separate Agreement”), including without limitation any obligation to make a payment of cash or a delivery of Shares or any other property or securities. For this purpose, JPMorgan shall be entitled to convert any obligation (or the relevant portion of such obligation) denominated in one currency into another currency at the rate of exchange at which it would be able to purchase the relevant amount of such currency, and to convert any obligation to deliver any non-cash property into an obligation to deliver cash in an amount calculated by reference to the market value of such property as of the Early Termination Date, as determined by the Calculation Agent in its sole discretion; provided that in the case of a set-off of any obligation to release or deliver assets against any right to receive fungible assets, such obligation and right shall be set off in kind and; provided further that in determining the value of any obligation to deliver Shares, the value at any time of such obligation shall be determined by reference to the market value of the Shares at such time, as determined in good faith by the Calculation Agent. If an obligation is unascertained at the time of any such set-off, the Calculation Agent may in good faith estimate the amount or value of such obligation, in which case set-off will be effected in respect of that estimate, and the relevant party shall account to the other party at the time such obligation or right is ascertained. |
| (p) | Status of Claims in Bankruptcy. JPMorgan acknowledges and agrees that this confirmation is not intended to convey to JPMorgan rights with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby that are senior to the claims of common stockholders in any U.S. bankruptcy proceedings of Counterparty; provided, however, that nothing herein shall limit or shall be deemed to limit JPMorgan’s right to pursue remedies in the |

If in respect of this Transaction, an amount is payable by JPMorgan to Counterparty (i) pursuant to Section 9.7 of the Equity Definitions or (ii) pursuant to Section 6(d)(ii) of the Agreement (a “Payment Obligation”), Counterparty may request JPMorgan to satisfy any such Payment Obligation by the Share Termination Alternative (as defined below) (except that Counterparty shall not make such an election in the event of a Nationalization or Insolvency or a Merger Event, in each case, in which the consideration to be paid to holders of Shares consists solely of cash, or an Event of Default in which Counterparty is the Defaulting Party or a Termination Event in which Counterparty is the Affected Party, other than an Event of Default of the type described in (x) Section 5(a)(iii), (v), (vi), (vii) or (viii) of the Agreement or (y) a Termination Event of the type described in Section 5(b)(i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v) or (vi) of the Agreement, in the case of both (x) and (y), that resulted from an event or events outside Counterparty’s control) and shall give irrevocable telephonic notice to JPMorgan, confirmed in writing within one Currency Business Day, no later than 12:00 p.m. New York local time on the Merger Date, the date of the occurrence of the Nationalization or Insolvency or the Early Termination Date, as applicable; provided that if Counterparty does not validly request JPMorgan to satisfy its Payment Obligation by the Share Termination Alternative, JPMorgan shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to satisfy its Payment Obligation by the Share Termination Alternative. In calculating any amounts under Section 6(e) of the Agreement, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Agreement, (1) separate amounts shall be calculated as set forth in Section 6(e) with respect to (i) this Transaction and (ii) all other Transactions, and (2) such separate amounts shall be payable pursuant to Section 6(d)(ii) of the Agreement. |
| Share Termination Alternative: | Applicable and means that JPMorgan shall deliver to Counterparty the Share Termination Delivery Property on the date when the Payment Obligation would otherwise be due pursuant to Section 9.7 of the Equity Definitions or Section 6(d)(ii) and 6(e) of the Agreement, as applicable (the “Share Termination Payment Date”), in satisfaction of the Payment Obligation in the manner reasonably requested by Counterparty free of payment. | |||
| Share Termination Delivery Property: | A number of Share Termination Delivery Units, as calculated by the Calculation Agent, equal to the Payment Obligation divided by the Share Termination Unit Price. The Calculation Agent shall adjust the Share Termination Delivery Property by replacing any fractional portion of a security therein with an amount of cash equal to the |

| Share Termination Unit Price: | The value to JPMorgan of property contained in one Share Termination Delivery Unit on the date such Share Termination Delivery Units are to be delivered as Share Termination Delivery Property, as determined by the Calculation Agent in its discretion by commercially reasonable means and notified by the Calculation Agent to JPMorgan at the time of notification of the Payment Obligation. | |||

| (t) | Tax Disclosure. Effective from the date of commencement of discussions concerning the Transaction, Counterparty and each of its employees, representatives, or other agents may disclose to any and all persons, without limitation of any kind, the tax treatment and tax structure of the Transaction and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that are provided to Counterparty relating to such tax treatment and tax structure. |
| (u) | Right to Extend. JPMorgan may extend any Settlement Date or any other date of delivery by JPMorgan, with respect to some or all of the Options hereunder, if JPMorgan determines, in its discretion, that such extension is reasonably necessary to enable JPMorgan to effect purchases of Shares in connection with its hedging activity hereunder in a manner that would, if JPMorgan were Counterparty or an affiliated purchaser of Counterparty, be in compliance with applicable legal and regulatory requirements. |
| (v) | Registration/Private Placement Procedures. Counterparty hereby agrees that if, in the good faith reasonable judgment of JPMorgan, the Shares (“Hedge Shares”) acquired by JPMorgan for the purpose of hedging its obligations pursuant to this Transaction cannot be sold in the public market by JPMorgan without registration under the Securities Act, Counterparty shall, at its election, either (i) in order to allow JPMorgan to sell the Hedge Shares in a registered offering, make available to JPMorgan an effective registration statement under the Securities Act and enter into an agreement, in form and substance satisfactory to JPMorgan, substantially in the form of a underwriting agreement customary for a registered secondary offering; provided however, that if JPMorgan, in its sole reasonable discretion, is not satisfied with access to due diligence materials, the results of its due diligence investigation, or the procedures and documentation for the registered offering referred to above, then clause (ii) or clause (iii) of this Section 9(v) shall apply at the election of Counterparty, (ii) in order to allow JPMorgan to sell the Hedge Shares in a private placement (a “Private Placement Settlement”), enter into a private placement agreement substantially similar to private placement purchase agreements customary for private placements of equity securities, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to JPMorgan using commerically reasonable judgments (in which case, the Calculation Agent shall make any adjustments to the terms of this Transaction which are necessary, in its reasonable judgment, to compensate JPMorgan for any discount from the public market price of the Shares incurred on the sale of Hedge Shares in a private placement); provided that Counterparty may not elect a Private Placement Settlement if, on the date of its election, it 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 Counterparty to JPMorgan (or any affiliate designated by JPMorgan) of the Hedge Shares or the exemption pursuant to Section 4(1) or Section 4(3) of the Securities Act for resales of the Hedge Shares by JPMorgan (or any such affiliate of JPMorgan), or (iii) purchase the Hedge Shares from JPMorgan at the Closing Price on such Trading Days, and in the amounts, requested by JPMorgan. |
