Agreements by Seller.  Seller acknowledges and agrees to the following provisions:

Issuer believes that the Trading Plan is consistent with its ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ policies, and has no reason to believe that there are any legal, contractual or regulatory restrictions applicable to Seller or Seller's affiliates as of the date of hereof that would prohibit Seller from either entering into the Trading Plan or selling Stock pursuant to the Trading Plan.

To avoid delays in connection with transfers of stock certificates and settlement of transactions involving restricted securities, if any, under the Trading Plan, and in acknowledgment of UBS Financial Services Inc.'s agreement in the Trading Plan that sales of Stock under the Trading Plan will be effected in compliance with Rule 144, Issuer agrees that it will, within a commercially reasonable time after Issuer's receipt of evidence, reasonably satisfactory to Issuer and its counsel, that Rule 144 has been complied with, instruct its transfer agent to process the transfer of shares and issue a new certificate to Seller's transferee or nominee that does not bear any legend or statement restricting its transferability to a buyer.

If client is exercising options under the Trading Plan then the Issuer acknowledges that Seller has authorized UBSFS to serve as Seller's agent and attorney-in-fact to exercise certain Options to purchase the Stock from time to time pursuant to the Trading Plan.  Issuer agrees to accept, acknowledge and effect the exercise of such Options by UBSFS and the delivery of the underlying Stock to UBSFS (free of any legend or statement restricting its transferability to a buyer) upon receipt of a completed Stock Option Exercise Form (if required).

Title: General Counsel

I intend to sell Stock pursuant to Rule 10b5-l.  I intend for UBS Financial Services Inc. to adhere to the Trading Plan without alteration or modification during the plan period.

I am an affiliate of the Issuer.

The number of shares of Stock, which I have ordered you to sell as broker or dealer for my account, will conform to the Sales Instructions in Exhibit A of the Trading Plan.

I have verified that Issuer has been subject to the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") information reporting requirements pursuant to the Exchange Act for at least the preceding 90 days and has filed all required periodic reports during the 12 months preceding the first sale or during any shorter period that the SEC may require.  As of the date of the Trading Plan, I did not know of any material nonpublic information concerning Issuer.

If the securities being sold are "restricted securities" as defined in paragraph (a)(3) of Rule 144, I confirm that I have been the beneficial owner for a period of at least six (6) months as provided in paragraph (d) of Rule 144.

I have made no payments to any other person in connection with your execution of my order.

I have not agreed to act in concert with any other person in connection with my proposed sales.

It is my bona fide intention to sell the Stock as expressly prescribed in the Trading Plan pursuant to the Plan.

I understand that the payment of the proceeds of the sales will be delayed until the shares of Stock are transferred and delivered free of restrictions to UBS Financial Services Inc.

All capitalized terms used in this Rule 144 Letter shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Trading Plan.
