SALE AND PURCHASE

Section 2.1 Sale and Purchase.

(a) Firm Exchange Shares. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, Shareholder agrees to sell to Purchaser, and Purchaser agrees to purchase from Shareholder, the number of Shares (or the number of Exchange Property Units, if applicable) equal to the product of (x) the Firm Applicable Percentage, (y) the Firm Trust Security Base Amount and (z) the Final Exchange Amount (the “Firm Exchange Shares”).

(b) Additional Exchange Shares. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, if Representative exercises the Initial Purchasers’ option to purchase Optional Trust Securities pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, Shareholder agrees to sell to Purchaser, and Purchaser agrees to purchase from Shareholder, the number of additional Shares (or the number of additional Exchange Property Units, if applicable) equal to the product of (x) the Additional Trust Security Base Amount and (y) the Final Exchange Amount (the “Additional Exchange Shares”). The Firm Exchange Shares and the Additional Exchange Shares (if any) are collectively referred to in this Agreement as the “Contract Shares”.

(c) Final Exchange Amount. Subject to Section 7.1, the “Final Exchange Amount” in respect of each outstanding Trust Security will be determined as of the Exchange Date as follows: the number of Shares (and the amount of each other type of Exchange Property) deliverable on the Exchange Date will equal the sum of the following amounts determined for each of the 40 Trading Days during the Observation Period:

(i) if the Daily VWAP of the Shares (or the aggregate Then-Current Value of an Exchange Property Unit, if the Exchange Property Unit includes Exchange Property other than solely one Share) for such Trading Day is equal to or greater than the Non-Accelerated Percentage then in effect multiplied by the Threshold Appreciation Price, then a number of Shares (or a number of Exchange Property Units, if applicable) for such Trading Day equal to 1/40th of the Minimum Exchange Rate;

(ii) if the Daily VWAP of the Shares (or the aggregate Then-Current Value of an Exchange Property Unit, if the Exchange Property Unit includes Exchange Property other than solely one Share) for such Trading Day is equal to or greater than the Non-Accelerated Percentage then in effect multiplied by the Initial Price, but less than the Non-Accelerated Percentage then in effect multiplied by the Threshold Appreciation Price, then that number of Shares for such Trading Day that, if multiplied by the Daily VWAP of the Shares for such Trading Day, would have a value equal to 1/40th of the Non-Accelerated Percentage then in effect multiplied by $100.00 (or, if applicable, that number of Exchange Property Units for such Trading Day that, if multiplied by the Then-Current Value (valued as of such Trading Day) of an Exchange Property Unit, would have a value equal to 1/40th of the Non-Accelerated Percentage then in effect multiplied by $100.00); and

(iii) if the Daily VWAP of the Shares (or the aggregate Then-Current Value of an Exchange Property Unit, if the Exchange Property Unit includes Exchange Property other than solely one Share) for such Trading Day is less than the Non-Accelerated Percentage then in effect multiplied by the Initial Price, then a number of Shares (or a number of Exchange Property Units, if applicable) for such Trading Day equal to 1/40th of the Maximum Exchange Rate.

Section 2.2 Initial Forward Amount.

(a) Firm Initial Forward Amount. The initial forward amount for the Firm Exchange Shares (the “Firm Initial Forward Amount”) shall be an amount equal to the product of the Firm Applicable Percentage and the excess of (i) the aggregate proceeds to Purchaser from the sale of the Firm Trust Securities determined in accordance with the first Paragraph of Section 2 of the Securities Purchase Agreement over (ii) the aggregate cost to Purchaser, as notified by Purchaser to Shareholder at the First Time of Delivery, of the Initial Treasury Securities.

(b) Additional Initial Forward Amount. The initial forward amount for any Additional Exchange Shares (the “Additional Initial Forward Amount”) shall be an amount equal to the excess of (i) the aggregate proceeds to Purchaser from the sale of the Optional Trust Securities determined in accordance with Section 2 of the Securities Purchase Agreement over (ii) the aggregate cost to Purchaser, as notified by Purchaser to Shareholder at the relevant Subsequent Time of Delivery, of the Additional Treasury Securities.

Section 2.3 Payment for and Delivery of Contract Shares.

(a) First Time of Delivery. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, Purchaser shall deliver to Shareholder the Firm Initial Forward Amount, less $100 (the “Greenshoe Consideration”), at 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on December 15, 2017, or at such other time not later than seven Business Days thereafter as Representative, Purchaser and Shareholders determine pursuant to the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement (the “First Time of Delivery”), at ▇▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ LLP, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, or at such other place as shall be agreed upon by Purchaser and Shareholder, by wire transfer to an account designated by Shareholder, in Federal (immediately available) funds. Purchaser shall also deliver to Shareholder at such time and such place the Greenshoe Consideration, which consideration shall entitle Purchaser to purchase the Additional Exchange Shares subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

(b) Subsequent Times of Delivery. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, Purchaser shall deliver to Shareholder the Additional Initial Forward Amount at each time for the delivery of and payment for the “Option Securities” pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, which may be the First Time of Delivery Date, and shall be determined pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement (each a “Subsequent Time of Delivery”), at ▇▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ LLP, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, or at such other place as shall be agreed upon by Purchaser and Shareholder, by wire transfer to an account designated by Shareholder, in Federal (immediately available) funds.

(c) Sale and Delivery of Contract Shares. Shareholder agrees to deliver, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Contract Shares to Purchaser on the Exchange Date. Delivery shall be effected by the Collateral Agent delivering to the Custodian, for the account of Purchaser, the Shares (and other Exchange Property, if applicable) then held by the Collateral Agent as Collateral under the Collateral Agreement, in an aggregate amount equal to the number of Contract Shares, rounded down to the nearest whole number, by 12:00 p.m. New York City time on the Exchange Date. Shareholder agrees to make a cash payment in respect of any fractional Shares (or Exchange Property Units, if applicable) included in the Contract Shares on

the Exchange Date, in an amount equal to the Then-Current Value of such fractional Shares (or Exchange Property Units, if applicable). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Special Acceleration Date, Optional Acceleration Date or an Acceleration upon Event of Default shall have occurred prior to the Exchange Date then, in lieu of the foregoing, delivery shall be effected as provided in Section 6.3, Section 6.4, Section 6.5 or Section 7.1, as applicable, by the Collateral Agent delivering to the Custodian, for the account of Purchaser, the Shares (and other Exchange Property, if applicable) then held by the Collateral Agent as Collateral under the Collateral Agreement as provided in Section 5.7 of the Collateral Agreement, limited to (in the case any such limit applies under the applicable provision at such time) the amount of Exchange Property required to be delivered pursuant to Section 6.3, Section 6.4 or Section 7.1, as applicable. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if the number of Shares (or other Exchange Securities) deliverable to Purchaser (in the aggregate among Shareholders pursuant to the Contracts) on any date would cause Purchaser or any group (within the meaning of Section 13 under the Exchange Act) of which Purchaser is a part to have beneficial ownership in excess of 9.9% of the then-outstanding Shares (or 9.9% of the then-outstanding voting securities of the applicable issuer), Purchaser shall notify Shareholder of the amount of such excess and Shareholder will instead deliver the product of (A) the Applicable Percentage and (B) the lesser of (i) such excess portion and (ii) a number of Shares (or any other Exchange Securities) representing the product of the Applicable Percentage and 9.9% or more of the then-outstanding Shares (or the product of the Applicable Percentage and 9.9% or more of the then-outstanding voting securities of the applicable issuer), on successive Business Days after such notice, in each case, until Shareholder has satisfied all of its delivery requirements under this Agreement); provided that by the close of business on each Business Day, Purchaser shall deliver all Shares (or other Exchange Securities) it received from Shareholders on such Business Day to holders of the Trust Securities.

(d) Satisfaction of Obligations.

A member of the Shareholder Purchase Group may from time to time purchase Trust Securities in open market purchases or negotiated transactions, subject to compliance with applicable laws. Shareholder shall deliver the purchased Trust Securities to Purchaser for cancelation within two Trading Days following the date of purchase. Purchaser shall promptly notify holders of the Trust Securities of the cancelation and issue a press release or post the relevant information on a publicly available website upon cancelation of such Trust Securities. Upon the cancelation of any Trust Securities purchased pursuant to this Section 2.3(d), Purchaser will distribute to Shareholder the stripped U.S. Treasury securities (or proceeds thereof) (pro rata among the respective series) and any other property held by Purchaser and associated with those Trust Securities and release the Collateral associated with those Trust Securities. For the avoidance of doubt, the cancelation of any Trust Securities under this Section 2.3(d) will not affect the number or amount of each type of Exchange Property that will be received in respect of each Trust Security that remains outstanding on the Exchange Date.

From time to time on and after the date of this Agreement through the Exchange Date, each of the parties to this Agreement shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all action and to do, or cause to be done, all things reasonably necessary, proper or advisable to consummate and make effective as promptly as practicable the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including (i) using commercially reasonable efforts to remove any legal impediment to the consummation of such transactions and (ii) the execution and delivery of all such deeds, agreements, assignments and further instruments of transfer and conveyance reasonably necessary, proper or advisable to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

Notwithstanding the preceding sentence but subject to Purchaser’s obligations under Section 6.7, Purchaser may in its discretion withhold Tax on payments to the Trust Security holders regardless of the legal theory or characterization supporting such withholding. Shareholder and Purchaser may also take any action or position required by law.

(f) No Impairment of the Collateral. Shareholder shall not take any action that would impair the value of the Collateral or Purchaser’s security interest therein or Purchaser’s ability to sell or otherwise realize against the Collateral, including entering into any agreement or engaging in any activity that could reasonably be expected to result in an adverse effect on the Collateral or Purchaser’s rights and remedies under the Collateral Agreement (provided, for the avoidance of doubt, that this provision shall not restrict the Shareholder’s ability to dispose of or enter into contracts in respect of Shares that are not included in the Collateral, or to cast votes in respect of Shares over which it has voting power as and to the extent it chooses, so long as such votes with respect to Shares included in the Collateral are not exercised in a way that adversely affects Purchaser’s rights and remedies with respect to the Collateral).

(g) Payment of Taxes and Claims. Shareholder hereby agrees to pay on a going-forward basis, all Taxes imposed upon it or any of its properties or assets or in respect of any of its income, businesses or franchises, or for which it otherwise is liable, before any penalty or fine accrues thereon, and all claims for sums that have become due and payable and that by law have or may become a Lien upon any Collateral, prior to the time when the penalty or fine shall be incurred with respect thereto; provided, in each case, that any failure to pay such taxes, claims or sums pursuant to this Section 5.1(g) shall not constitute a Breach Event unless they remain

unpaid on the date 45 Business Days after Shareholder has received notice of the accrual or incurrence of such penalty or fine, as applicable, so long as such failure has not resulted in forfeiture or loss of the Collateral; provided, further, that no such tax, claim or sum need be paid (and no representation is made as to payment) (I) if non-payment would not result in forfeiture or loss of the Collateral or (II) to the extent it is being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings promptly instituted and diligently conducted, so long as (i) adequate reserves or other appropriate provisions shall have been made or provided therefor, (ii) in the case of such Tax or claim which has or may become a Lien against any of the Collateral (other than a Lien that is junior to the Purchaser’s Lien against the Collateral), such proceedings conclusively operate to stay the sale of any portion of the Collateral to satisfy such Tax or claim and (iii) Collateral cannot, as a result of the proceedings, become subject to forfeiture or loss.

(h) Compliance with Laws and Material Contracts. Shareholder hereby agrees to comply with (i) the requirements of all laws and all orders, writs, injunctions and decrees applicable to it or to its business or property and (ii) its reporting obligations with respect to the Shares and the other transaction documents related to the offering under Sections 13 and 16 of the Exchange Act and applicable securities laws of any other jurisdiction, including any required filings with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, except where any failure to comply with such requirements or obligations could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(i) Ownership of Company Securities. Shareholder agrees that it will not, and will cause any member of the Shareholder Group not to, prior to the Exchange Date, purchase a number of voting securities of the Company that would result in Shareholder or the Shareholder Group directly or indirectly owning, holding or controlling with the power to vote twenty (20) percent or more of the aggregate voting power of the outstanding voting securities of the Company (taking into account for purposes of such calculation any differences in voting rights between different classes of the Company’s voting securities and calculated based on the information on the number of outstanding voting securities of the Company provided in the Company’s most recent quarterly report on Form 10-Q or annual report on Form 10-K under the Exchange Act).

ARTICLE VI

ADJUSTMENTS TO EXCHANGE AMOUNT; REORGANIZATION EVENTS;

SPECIAL ACCELERATION; OPTIONAL ACCELERATION

Section 6.1 Exchange Property Adjustments. The amount and type of Exchange Property that Purchaser is entitled to receive under this Agreement is subject to change and adjustment following any of the events set forth in this Section 6.1 (each such event set forth in subsections (a), (b), (c) and (d) of this Section 6.1, a “Dilution Event”) as well as any Reorganization Event, if the record date for determining holders entitled to receive cash, securities or other property in respect of such event occurs prior to the Exchange Date (or an earlier settlement date, if this Agreement is accelerated in full). For purposes of determining the Daily VWAP of the Shares (or the Then-Current Value of the Exchange Property Units, if applicable) for any Trading Day that occurs on or after the Ex-Dividend Date for a Dilution

Event or Reorganization Event and prior to the related Exchange Property Adjustment Date for such Dilution Event or Reorganization Event, such Daily VWAP of the Shares (or such Then-Current Value of an Exchange Property Unit, if applicable) will be increased (or replaced, as applicable) by the Then-Current Value (as of such Trading Day) of the assets or property to be distributed with respect to one Share (or one Exchange Property Unit, as applicable) in respect of such Dilution Event or Reorganization Event.

(a) Subdivisions and Splits. If the issuer of any Exchange Security subdivides or splits the outstanding units of the Exchange Security into a greater number of units, combines the outstanding units of the Exchange Security into a smaller number of units or reclassifies the outstanding units of the Exchange Security into units of another of the issuer’s securities (or depositary shares representing such securities), then each Exchange Property Unit will be adjusted to include the number of units of the Exchange Security or other securities of the issuer (or depositary shares representing such security) that a holder of the Exchange Security would have been entitled to receive as a result of the Dilution Event had the holder held, immediately prior to that Dilution Event, the number of units of the Exchange Security that were then part of one Exchange Property Unit.

(b) Grant of Certain Options, Rights or Warrants. If the issuer of any Exchange Security grants options, rights or warrants (other than non-transferable options, rights or warrants) to all holders of such Exchange Security (or depositary shares representing such securities) entitling them to subscribe for or purchase any of its securities (or depositary shares representing such securities) or other property for a period ending before the fifteenth calendar day following the Exchange Date (other than rights to purchase Exchange Securities pursuant to a plan for the reinvestment of dividends or interest), then each Exchange Property Unit will be adjusted to include cash or Eligible Cash Equivalents as follows.

The amount of cash or Eligible Cash Equivalents included in each Exchange Property Unit in respect of such options, rights or warrants will equal (x) the sale proceeds (determined as set forth below in this subsection (b)) for each such option, right or warrant or (y) if Shareholder elects to pledge Eligible Cash Equivalents to the Collateral Agent in accordance with this subsection (b), the per-option, -right or -warrant amount of such Eligible Cash Equivalents (determined as set forth below in this subsection (b)), in either case, multiplied by the product of (A) the number of such options, rights or warrants issued for each unit of the relevant Exchange Security and (B) the number of units of the relevant Exchange Security that are part of one Exchange Property Unit immediately before the Record Date, without any interest.

The Collateral Agent shall solicit, on Shareholder’s behalf, bids by three recognized securities dealers in the City of New York for the purchase by each such dealer of the number (the “Aggregate Number”) of such options, rights or warrants that a holder of the relevant Exchange Security would have received if the holder held, on the record date for determination of holders entitled to receive the options, rights or warrants (the “Record Date”), a number of units of the Exchange Security equal to the product of (1) the number of units of the relevant Exchange Security that were part of one Exchange Property Unit on the Record Date, (2) the Maximum Exchange Rate, (3) the aggregate number of outstanding Trust Securities as of the Record Date and (4) the Applicable Percentage as of the Record Date. The Collateral Agent

shall instruct the securities dealers to provide such bids by approximately 5:00 p.m., New York City time, by the second Trading Day after the date the holders of the relevant Exchange Security receive their options, rights or warrants (the “Receipt Date”). The Collateral Agent shall promptly provide each of Shareholder and Purchaser with notice of the net amounts of such bids. Shareholder may, by 5:00 p.m., on the fifth Business Day following receipt of such notice, pledge to the Collateral Agent an amount of Eligible Cash Equivalents with a fair market value equal to the net proceeds that would be received were the Collateral Agent to sell the Aggregate Number of the options, rights or warrants to the securities dealer providing the highest net bid. Upon Shareholder’s pledge of such Eligible Cash Equivalents, such Eligible Cash Equivalents shall replace the options, rights or warrants as Exchange Property, and the options, rights or warrants shall be released from the Collateral and delivered by the Collateral Agent to Shareholder. In such an instance, the per-option, -right or -warrant amount of such Eligible Cash Equivalents will equal the fair market value of such Eligible Cash Equivalents divided by (y) the Aggregate Number. If Shareholder does not pledge such an amount of Eligible Cash Equivalents to the Collateral Agent by 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the fifth Business Day following receipt of notice of the bids from Purchaser, the Collateral Agent shall sell the Aggregate Number of such options, rights and warrants to the securities dealer that provided the highest net bid. In such an instance, the sale proceeds for each such option, right or warrant will be equal to (x) the net sale proceeds divided by (y) the Aggregate Number.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no recognized securities dealer will be deemed to have provided the highest net bid hereunder unless (A) it also provides the same bid for all such options, rights or warrants in connection with all outstanding Contracts and (B) such bid is also deemed to be the highest net bid under each of the outstanding Contracts.

If for any reason the Collateral Agent is, or is deemed to be, unable to obtain the required bid or sell such options, rights or warrants at such highest net bid on or prior to the fifth Trading Day after the Receipt Date, promptly after the fifth Trading Day after the Receipt Date, a nationally recognized independent investment banking firm will be retained by Purchaser to identify the per-option, -right or -warrant fair market value of such options, rights or warrants. Shareholder may thereupon pledge an amount of Eligible Cash Equivalents with a fair market value equal to the product of the per-option, -right or -warrant fair market value of such options, rights or warrants and the Aggregate Number by the fifth Business Day following receipt of the investment banking firm’s determination of the per-option, -right or -warrant fair market value of such options, rights or warrants. Upon Shareholder’s pledge of such Eligible Cash Equivalents, such Eligible Cash Equivalents shall replace the options, rights or warrants as Exchange Property, and the options, rights or warrants shall be released from the Collateral and delivered by the Collateral Agent to Shareholder. If Shareholder does not pledge such Eligible Cash Equivalents by 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the fifth Business Day following receipt of the investment banking firm’s determination of their fair market value, the investment banking firm shall identify a purchaser or purchasers for such options, rights or warrants in connection with all outstanding Contracts, and the Collateral Agent shall sell, on Shareholder’s behalf, such options, rights or warrants to the purchaser or purchasers identified by such investment banking firm.

For purposes of determining the Then-Current Value of the Exchange Property Unit, (I) if those options, rights or warrants are sold pursuant to this subsection (b) or released to Shareholder following Shareholder’s pledge of Eligible Cash Equivalents pursuant to this subsection (b), such options, rights or warrants constituting part of each Exchange Property Unit will be deemed to have a value equal to the sale price, or fair market value of the Eligible Cash Equivalents pledged in respect, of such options, rights or warrants constituting part of each Exchange Property Unit from, and including, the Ex-Dividend Date in respect of the issuance of such options, rights or warrants; or (II) if those options, rights or warrants are not so sold or Shareholder has not so pledged such Eligible Cash Equivalents, such options, rights or warrants constituting part of each Exchange Property Unit will be deemed to have a sale proceeds value of zero.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Shareholder may not pledge Eligible Cash Equivalents under this clause (b) unless each other Shareholder with an outstanding Contract pledges its applicable amount of Eligible Cash Equivalents in accordance with the analogous provisions of the Contract to which such Shareholder is a party, such that there is an identical adjustment to the types and amounts of Exchange Property comprising the Exchange Property Unit under each of the outstanding Contracts.

(c) Certain Non-Transferable Options, Rights and Warrants. If the issuer of any Exchange Security grants non-transferable options, rights or warrants that require payment as a condition to their exercise to all holders of such Exchange Security (or depositary shares representing such securities) entitling them to subscribe for or purchase any of its securities (or depositary shares representing such securities) or other property for a period ending before the fifteenth calendar day following the Exchange Date (other than rights to purchase Exchange Securities pursuant to a plan for the reinvestment of dividends or interest), then each Exchange Property Unit will be adjusted to include cash as follows. The amount of cash included in each Exchange Property Unit in respect of such options, rights or warrants will equal the fair market value of each such option, right or warrant (as determined on or prior to the fifth Trading Day after the Receipt Date by a nationally recognized investment banking firm retained by Shareholders for this purpose) multiplied by the product of (A) the number of such options, rights or warrants issued for each unit of the relevant Exchange Security and (B) the number of units of the relevant Exchange Security that are part of one Exchange Property Unit immediately before the Record Date, without any interest (the “Non-Transferable Option Value”). By 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the third Trading Day following such determination of the fair market value of each such option, right or warrant Shareholder shall pledge to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of Purchaser an amount of cash (the “Aggregate Non-Transferable Option Value”) equal to the product of (1) the Non-Transferable Option Value, (2) the Maximum Exchange Rate, (3) the total number of Trust Securities outstanding as of the Record Date and (4) the Applicable Percentage as of the Record Date. From the date of issuance of such options, rights or warrants until Shareholder’s payment of the Aggregate Non-Transferable Option Value as provided above, each Exchange Property Unit will include the number of those options, rights or warrants issued for each unit of the relevant Exchange Security multiplied by the number of units of the relevant Exchange Security that are part of one Exchange Property Unit immediately before the issuance of those options, rights or warrants.

For purposes of determining the Then-Current Value of the Exchange Property Unit, (I) if all Shareholders pledge the Aggregate Non-Transferable Option Value in connection with all outstanding Contracts, those options, rights or warrants constituting part of each Exchange Property Unit will be deemed to have a fair market value equal to the Non-Transferable Option Value from, and including, the Ex-Dividend Date in respect of the issuance of such options, rights or warrants; or (II) if any Shareholder fails to make such pledge, those options, rights or warrants constituting part of each Exchange Property Unit will be deemed to have a fair market value of zero. From the time of Shareholder’s pledge of the Aggregate Non-Transferable Option Value, (i) no Exchange Property Unit will include any such options, rights or warrants; and (ii) the Collateral Agent, upon request from Shareholder, will, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, promptly release to Shareholder such options, rights or warrants from the Collateral, in accordance with the Collateral Agreement.

If the issuer of any Exchange Security grants non-transferable options, rights or warrants that do not require any payment as a condition to their exercise to all holders of such Exchange Security (or depositary shares representing such securities) entitling them to subscribe for or purchase any of its securities (or depositary shares representing such securities) or other property for a period ending before the fifteenth calendar day following the Exchange Date (other than rights to purchase Exchange Securities pursuant to a plan for the reinvestment of dividends or interest) (such options, rights or warrants, the “Zero-Payment Options”), then the Shareholder shall exercise (or cause the exercise of) those Zero-Payment Options in full (before the later of (x) the third Trading Day after the receipt of such Zero-Payment Options and (y) the fourth Trading Day prior to the scheduled expiration of such Zero-Payment Options, in each case if then exercisable) and each Exchange Property Unit will be adjusted to include, as of the date when the securities of the issuer (or depositary shares representing such securities) or such other property receivable pursuant to such exercise are delivered to or for the account of Shareholder, the number of such securities of the issuer (or depositary shares representing such securities) or the amount of such other property equal to the product of (x) the number of those Zero-Payment Options issued for each unit of the relevant Exchange Security, (y) the number of units of the relevant Exchange Security that are part of one Exchange Property Unit as of the Record Date in respect of the issuance of those Zero-Payment Options and (z) the number of such securities of the issuer (or depositary shares representing such securities) or the amount of such other property that each such Zero-Payment Option entitles the holder thereof to receive upon exercise thereof.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that any options, rights or warrants are issued in connection with the adoption or amendment of a rights plan, no adjustment to the Exchange Property will be made unless and until such options, rights or warrants have separated from the applicable Exchange Security, in which case an adjustment to the Exchange Property will be made under this subsection (c) or, if such options, rights or warrants are at such time transferable, then an adjustment will be made under subsection (b).

(d) Dividends and Distributions. Except as described in Section 6.1(e), if the issuer of any Exchange Security that is a Marketable Security (A) pays a non-cash dividend or makes a non-cash distribution to all holders of such Exchange Security (or depositary shares representing such securities) of (I) its securities or securities issued by any other entity (including depositary shares representing such securities), or (II) other property, or (B) issues options, rights or

warrants to subscribe for or purchase any of its securities or securities issued by any other entity (including depositary shares representing such securities), or other non-cash property (each, a “Distributed Asset”), then each Exchange Property Unit will be adjusted to include the number and amount of each type of Distributed Asset distributed (computed prior to the application of any Indemnifiable Taxes that apply to such dividend or distribution) for each unit of the relevant Exchange Security multiplied by the number of units of such Exchange Security that are part of one Exchange Property Unit as of the Record Date in respect of that dividend, distribution or issuance. However, (x) no adjustment of the type set forth in this subsection (d) shall be made for any dividend, distribution or issuance referred to in subsections (a), (b) or (c) above (although the same principles with respect to Indemnifiable Taxes described in this subsection (d) shall apply to any such dividends or distributions) and (y) amounts in respect of Indemnifiable Taxes withheld on a dividend or distribution shall be considered Required Pledged Assets and Shareholder shall be obligated to pledge cash in respect thereof on or prior to the third Business Day following the later of (i) receipt of the applicable Distributed Asset and (ii) notice to Shareholder of the amount required to be pledged.

Except as described in Section 6.1(e), if, during any Quarterly Dividend Period, the issuer of any Exchange Security that is a Marketable Security pays any cash dividends or makes other cash distributions that, taken together with the aggregate cash dividends or distributions on other such Exchange Securities during the same period, on a per Exchange Property Unit basis, exceeds the Ordinary Cash Dividend (in each case, computed prior to the application of any Indemnifiable Taxes that apply to such dividend or distribution) (such excess, an “Excess Cash Dividend”), then, on the Business Day immediately prior to the first Distribution Date following the date that the Excess Cash Dividend is received by the Collateral Agent, Shareholder shall be obligated to make an additional payment hereunder equal to the product of (v) the Excess Cash Dividend (reduced by the amount of any withholding taxes, other than Indemnifiable Taxes, deducted from the Excess Cash Dividend), (w) the number of units of such Exchange Security that are part of one Exchange Property Unit on the record date of such cash dividend or distribution, (x) the Dividend Exchange Rate, (y) the aggregate number of outstanding Trust Securities as of the record date for such cash dividend or distribution and (z) the Applicable Percentage as of the record date for such cash dividend or distribution; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, such additional payment shall be paid by each Shareholder on the same day. As further set forth in the Trust Agreement, Purchaser shall distribute the amount received to holders of the outstanding Trust Securities on such Distribution Date.

Every adjustment of the type set forth in these subsections (a), (b), (c) and (d) will be made successively.

(e) Reorganization Event. If any Reorganization Event with respect to an issuer of any Exchange Security occurs on or prior to the Exchange Date (or an earlier settlement date, if this Agreement is accelerated in full), then each Exchange Property Unit will be adjusted to include, in lieu of the number of units of each Exchange Security of such issuer that were part of one Exchange Property Unit immediately before the effective date of the Reorganization Event, the amount or number of any cash, securities and/or other property that a holder of such Exchange Security would have been entitled to receive as a result of the Reorganization Event (as computed prior to the application of any Indemnifiable Taxes that apply to such property)

had the holder held, immediately prior to that Reorganization Event, the number of units of such Exchange Security that were part of one Exchange Property Unit immediately before the effective date of the Reorganization Event. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, in connection with a Reorganization Event with respect to an issuer of any Exchange Security, after giving effect to Section 6.1(e), less than all of such Exchange Securities of the issuer included in an Exchange Property Unit are subject to conversion or exchange for cash, securities and/or other property in such Reorganization Event, each Exchange Property Unit will be adjusted to include, in lieu of the number of units of such Exchange Security that were part of the Exchange Property Unit immediately before the effective date of such Reorganization Event, both the pro rata portion of such Exchange Security included in an Exchange Property Unit not subject to such conversion or exchange and the amount or number of any cash, securities and/or other property that a holder of the pro rata portion of such Exchange Security included in an Exchange Property Unit so subject to conversion or exchange would have been entitled to receive (as computed prior to the application of any Indemnifiable Taxes that apply to such property) as a result of the Reorganization Event in respect of such portion so subject to conversion or exchange.

(f) Elections with Respect to Reorganization or Dilution Events. If a Reorganization Event or a Dilution Event permits holders of an Exchange Security to elect (i) whether to participate or not or (ii) to own or receive either Marketable Securities or cash and/or other securities or property, or a combination of any or all of the foregoing, the Exchange Property adjustment will be based on the election actually made (or deemed to be made) by Shareholders with respect to the number of units of such Exchange Security included in the Exchange Property; provided that all Shareholders in respect of all outstanding Contracts shall make the same election in respect of a Reorganization Event or a Dilution Event. Shareholder will use reasonable efforts to notify Purchaser (or cause Purchaser to be notified) of any such election at least two Trading Days prior to the date of expiration of a holder of such Exchange Security’s right to make such an election (or, if earlier, the date at least three Trading Days prior to the commencement of any calculation period applicable to such Exchange Security, and/or such consideration with respect thereto, in such Reorganization Event or Dilution Event) and will direct Purchaser (or cause Purchaser to be directed) to instruct the Collateral Agent to make such election on Shareholder’s behalf, and upon such notice, Purchaser will direct the Collateral Agent to make such election on Shareholder’s behalf. Shareholder will make any such election following its consultation with respect thereto with a nationally recognized investment banking firm retained by Shareholders for this purpose and will make such election that it believes in good faith would result in the greatest economic value (to the holders of the Trust Securities) of the consideration with respect to such Exchange Security in such Reorganization Event or Dilution Event; provided that (1) if such Reorganization Event or Dilution Event permits Shareholder to elect to receive Marketable Securities in lieu of cash and/or other securities or property, Shareholder will not be required to make such consultation or good faith determination to the extent Shareholder elects to receive the maximum possible number of Marketable Securities and (2) Shareholder will not be required to make any such consultation to the extent that (X) the Shareholder Group beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, at the time of such election Exchange Securities with a Then-Current Value of no less than $20 million that are not included in the Collateral and (Y) the members of the Shareholder Group beneficially owning such Exchange Securities make the same election in connection with such Reorganization Event or Dilution Event. In the event that Purchaser does not receive such notice from Shareholder

under this Agreement, or such notice from any other Shareholder under the corresponding provisions of its Contract, Shareholder shall be deemed to have authorized Purchaser to direct the Collateral Agent to make the election that Purchaser believes in good faith, after consultation with a nationally recognized investment banking firm, would result in the greatest economic value (to the holders of the Trust Securities) of the consideration with respect to such Exchange Security in such Reorganization Event or Dilution Event.

(g) Exchange Property Adjustment Date. The date on which a given Exchange Property adjustment will take effect is referred to as the “Exchange Property Adjustment Date” and will be the distribution date for the property distributed in such event; provided that (i) if such distribution date occurs on or after the Exchange Date (or an earlier settlement date, if this Agreement is accelerated in full), then the Exchange Property Adjustment Date shall be the Record Date for such distribution, and (ii) if the Record Date for a Dilution Event or Reorganization Event occurs and, prior to the related Exchange Property Adjustment Date, a Record Date or Exchange Property Adjustment Date occurs for another Dilution Event or Reorganization Event then, in either case, the adjustments to the Exchange Property Unit in respect of such Dilution Events and/or Reorganization Events, as applicable, will take into account the property that a holder of one Exchange Property Unit would have been entitled to receive in the relevant transactions or events whether or not the relevant property had been distributed as of the relevant Record Date or Record Dates. If the preceding clauses (i) or (ii) apply, the Shareholders shall not be required to deliver such distributed property to Purchaser prior to the date that is five Scheduled Trading Days following the earlier of (x) the first date that the property distributed in such event is received by the Shareholders and (y) the first date that the property distributed in such event is received by the Collateral Agent. Within three Business Days after the Exchange Property Adjustment Date, Purchaser will provide to holders of the Trust Securities written notice of the event and a statement setting forth in reasonable detail the amount or number of each type of Exchange Property included in the Exchange Property Unit, after giving effect to the applicable Exchange Property adjustment.

(h) No Other Adjustments. There will be no adjustments of the Exchange Property Units for events other than those defined as Dilution Events or Reorganization Events or other adjustment events set forth in this Section 6.1. In particular, there will be no adjustment for any offerings by any issuer of Exchange Securities of its equity securities for cash or in connection with acquisitions, any self-tenders (other than self-tenders constituting a Reorganization Event) or repurchases by the issuer of its equity securities. Likewise, there will be no adjustments of the Exchange Property Units for any sales of Shares or other Exchange Securities by Shareholder or any other shareholder of the Company or any third party partial tender offers for the Shares or other Exchange Securities (other than tender offers constituting a Reorganization Event).

Section 6.2 Publishing of Elections. Upon receipt of any notice from Shareholder in respect of an Optional Acceleration election, adjustment or election in respect of a Dilution Event of Reorganization Event or substitution of Collateral, Purchaser shall issue a press release announcing the delivery of such notice and the relevant election or adjustment notified therein or post the relevant information on a publicly available website.

Section 6.3 Special Acceleration.

(a) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, on any Exchange Property Adjustment Date (which will be deemed to include, for purposes of the provisions relating to Special Accelerations, any date on which an Exchange Security ceases to be a Marketable Security, if such cessation does not arise as a result of a Dilution Event or Reorganization Event) occurring prior to the sixth Business Day before the first Trading Day in the Observation Period, after giving effect to the Exchange Property adjustment required as of such date, if any, the percentage (“Non-Marketable Securities Percentage”) obtained by dividing (1) the aggregate Then-Current Value of the items of Exchange Property included in one Exchange Property Unit other than Marketable Securities (such items, the “Non-Marketable Securities Exchange Property”) by (2) the aggregate Then-Current Value of all the items of Exchange Property included in one Exchange Property Unit, each determined as of the Exchange Property Adjustment Date, equals or exceeds 20 percent, then delivery of the Non-Marketable Securities Exchange Property by Shareholder under this Agreement will be accelerated in accordance with this Section 6.3 (such acceleration, a “Special Acceleration”). For the purposes of the below, “Make-Whole Non-Marketable Securities Exchange Property” for any Special Acceleration in respect of each Trust Security means the amount of Non-Marketable Securities Exchange Property equal to the aggregate of the products, for each type of Non-Marketable Securities Exchange Property that is the subject of such Special Acceleration included in one Exchange Property Unit, of (x) the number of units or amount of each such item of Non-Marketable Securities Exchange Property (or, in the case of cash, the amount of such cash) included in one Exchange Property Unit and (y) the applicable Make-Whole Exchange Property Rate. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, for purposes of determining the Non-Marketable Securities Percentage, if, in connection with a Tax Event, cash, securities or other property is issued or distributed in respect of, or received in exchange for, any Exchange Security (such cash, security or other property, a “Tax Event Security”), and Shareholder fails to satisfy a Reimbursement Obligation in respect of the Tax Event Security, the Tax Event Security shall be deemed to be Non-Marketable Securities Exchange Property.

(b) Upon any Special Acceleration, no later than the Special Acceleration Date, Purchaser shall instruct the Collateral Agent to deliver to Purchaser the Make-Whole Non-Marketable Securities Exchange Property (subject to any adjustments for Dilution Events or Reorganization Events, if applicable, as set forth in Section 6.1) in respect of a number of Trust Securities equal to the product of (X) the number of all outstanding Trust Securities for such Special Acceleration and (Y) the Applicable Percentage as of the Special Acceleration Date, and Purchaser will promptly distribute such property pro rata to holders of the Trust Securities then outstanding; provided that in connection with such delivery, Shareholder shall be deemed to have authorized Purchaser to instruct the Collateral Agent to make such delivery. The “Special Acceleration Date” means the fifth Scheduled Trading Day following the Exchange Property Adjustment Date with respect to such Special Acceleration or, if later, on the fifth Scheduled Trading Day after Collateral Agent receives Non-Marketable Securities Exchange Property that is the subject of such Special Acceleration.

(c) Reduction of Exchange Property Following a Special Acceleration. Immediately upon the delivery by Collateral Agent to Purchaser of the Make-Whole Non-Marketable Securities Exchange Property in respect of a number of Trust Securities equal to the product of (X) the number of all outstanding Trust Securities and (Y) the Applicable Percentage, the Exchange Property shall be reduced to exclude all Non-Marketable Securities Exchange Property that, on the Exchange Property Adjustment Date for such Special Acceleration, formed part of the Exchange Property (but, for the avoidance of doubt, without effect on the amount of Non-Marketable Securities Exchange Property deliverable to holders of outstanding Trust Securities with respect to such Special Acceleration itself) and such Non-Marketable Securities Exchange Property shall be released from the Collateral.

Section 6.4 Optional Acceleration.

(a) If Shareholder delivers notice to Purchaser that it has elected to effect an acceleration pursuant to this Section 6.4 (an “Optional Acceleration”), then delivery of the Exchange Property by Shareholder under this Agreement will be accelerated as set forth below; provided that the conditions and procedures set forth in Section 6.4(b) and Section 6.5 are met. If Shareholder delivers a notice of Optional Acceleration to Purchaser, Purchaser will promptly (and, in any event, within one Scheduled Trading Day) deliver notice of such election to the holders of the Trust Securities.

(b) Conditions to Optional Acceleration.

Shareholder’s notice of Optional Acceleration will be effective only if:

(i)

no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;

(ii)

such notice states that such Optional Acceleration is made with respect to a Reimbursement Obligation and includes the Officer’s Certificate and opinion of counsel described under Section 6.5 below; and

(iii)

the conditions in Section 6.5(c) are met.

(c) Optional Acceleration Exchange Date. The settlement for an Optional Acceleration (such date of settlement referred to as an “Optional Acceleration Date”) will be accelerated to a Trading Day between the first Trading Day and the fourth Trading Day, at the Shareholder’s election, following the five Trading Day period immediately following the Optional Acceleration Notice Date; provided that the Shareholder must elect the same Optional Acceleration Date elected by each other Shareholder. In the event of an Optional Acceleration, Collateral Agent shall deliver to Purchaser, no later than 12:00 p.m. New York City time on the Optional Acceleration Date, the Exchange Amount as set forth below.

(d) Exchange Amount in the Event of an Optional Acceleration. In the event of an Optional Acceleration, the Final Exchange Amount per Trust Security will be a number of Exchange Property Units equal to the Make-Whole Exchange Property Rate applicable to such Optional Acceleration, as determined in accordance with Section 6.5.

Section 6.5 Optional Acceleration Procedures.

(a) Shareholder may effect an Optional Acceleration only if each of the Shareholders reasonably determines that, as a result of a Tax Event, it will have, or has a substantial likelihood of having, a Reimbursement Obligation, and such obligation cannot be avoided by taking reasonable measures that are available to such Shareholder(s) or any member of the Shareholder Group (provided that such measures do not have an adverse effect on any party, including any member of the Shareholder Group). The Tax Event must occur on or after (and not be already in effect prior to) the closing date for the offering of the Trust Securities.

(b) No notice of an Optional Acceleration will be given by Shareholder earlier than the 90th calendar day prior to the earliest date with respect to which Shareholder will, or there is a substantial likelihood that Shareholder will be obligated to pay, or cause to be paid, or pledge any amount in respect of a Reimbursement Obligation. Concurrently with the delivery of the notice in respect of such Optional Acceleration, Shareholder will deliver to Purchaser: (i) an Officer’s Certificate stating that it is entitled to effect such Optional Acceleration because Shareholder will, or there is a substantial likelihood that Shareholder will be obligated to pay, or cause to be paid, or pledge any amount in respect of a Reimbursement Obligation and setting forth a statement of facts showing that the conditions precedent to its right to elect such Optional Acceleration have been satisfied and that Shareholder cannot avoid its Reimbursement Obligation by taking reasonable measures available to Shareholder or any member of the Shareholder Group (provided that such measures do not have an adverse effect on any party, including any member of the Shareholder Group) and (ii) an opinion of an independent tax counsel of recognized standing and reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser to the effect that Shareholder has been or will, or there is a substantial likelihood that Shareholder will, be obligated to pay, or cause to be paid, or pledge any amount in respect of a Reimbursement Obligation. Purchaser will accept and shall be entitled to rely absolutely and without further inquiry on such Officer’s Certificate and opinion of counsel as sufficient evidence of the satisfaction of the conditions precedent described above, in which event it will be conclusive and binding on the holders of the Trust Securities.

(c) Shareholder’s notice of Optional Acceleration shall not become effective unless and until Purchaser has received a notice of Optional Acceleration from each of the other Shareholders with respect to the same Reimbursement Obligation, in each case as specified and pursuant to the applicable procedures for giving such notice in each of the Contracts.

Section 6.6 Make-Whole Exchange Property Rate.

(a) The “Make-Whole Exchange Property Rate” will be determined by reference to the table below, based on the applicable “Make-Whole Adjustment Date” and the applicable “Share Price” related to such Make-Whole Adjustment Date. All Shareholders in connection with all outstanding Contracts will provide to Purchaser a written notice of a Make-Whole Exchange Property Rate applicable to any Special Acceleration or Optional Acceleration promptly after such Make-Whole Exchange Property Rate may be determined based on the availability of the relevant Make-Whole Adjustment Date and the Share Price, but not later than within two Business Days after both such relevant Make-Whole Adjustment Date and Share Price become available, and Purchaser shall issue a press release or post the relevant information on a publicly available website promptly after receiving such notice from Shareholders.

(b) For purposes of any Special Acceleration, the “Make-Whole Adjustment Date” will be the Exchange Property Adjustment Date for such Special Acceleration, and the “Share Price” related to such Make-Whole Adjustment Date will be the average of the Daily VWAPs of the Shares (or the average of the aggregate Then-Current Values of Exchange Property included in one Exchange Property Unit, if the Exchange Property Unit includes Exchange Property other than solely one Share) over the five consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the Exchange Property Adjustment Date.

(c) For purposes of an Optional Acceleration, the “Make-Whole Adjustment Date” will be the Optional Acceleration Notice Date for such Optional Acceleration, and the “Share Price” related to such Make-Whole Adjustment Date will be the average of the Daily VWAPs of the Shares (or the average of the aggregate Then-Current Values of Exchange Property included in one Exchange Property Unit, if the Exchange Property Unit includes Exchange Property other than solely one Share) over the five consecutive Trading Day period beginning on, and including, the first Trading Day immediately following the Optional Acceleration Notice Date.

(d) Immediately following each Special Acceleration (but, for the avoidance of doubt, without effect on the Make-Whole Exchange Property Rate applicable to such Special Acceleration), each of the Share Prices set forth in the column headers of the table below will be adjusted to be equal to the product of (i) the respective Share Prices set forth in the table below (as previously adjusted, if applicable) and (ii) the Non-Accelerated Percentage determined after giving effect to the adjustment thereto in respect of such Special Acceleration.

(e) The following table sets forth the Make-Whole Exchange Property Rate for each Share Price and Make-Whole Adjustment Date set forth below:


Make-Whole Adjustment Date	Share Price
Make-Whole Adjustment Date	$5.00		$7.50		$10.00		$12.50		$15.00		$17.50		$20.00		$22.50		$25.00
December 15, 2017		4.8735		5.0663		5.0898		5.0058		4.8776		4.7538		4.6948		4.6948		4.6948
December 1, 2018		5.1455		5.2768		5.3023		5.2253		5.0753		4.9106		4.7761		4.6948		4.6948
December 1, 2019		5.3995		5.4644		5.4915		5.4627		5.3280		5.1111		4.9024		4.7601		4.6948
December 1, 2020		5.6338		5.6338		5.6338		5.6338		5.6338		5.6338		5.0000		4.6948		4.6948

(f) If the exact Share Prices and Make-Whole Adjustment Dates are not set forth in the table in Section 6.6(e), the Make-Whole Exchange Property per Trust Security will be determined as follows:

(i)

if the applicable Share Price is between two Share Prices in the table or the Make-Whole Adjustment Date is between two Make-Whole Adjustment Dates in the table, the Make-Whole Exchange Property Rate will be determined by straight-line interpolation between the Make-Whole Exchange Property Rates set forth for the higher and lower Share Prices and the two Make-Whole Adjustment Dates, as applicable, based on a 365-day year;

(ii)

if the applicable Share Price is in excess of $25.00 per Share (or other Exchange Property, if applicable), then the Make-Whole Exchange Property Rate will be 4.6948 Shares (or Exchange Property Units, if applicable) (subject to adjustment in the same manner as the numbers of Shares set forth in the column headers of the table above); or

(iii)

if the applicable Share Price is less than $5.00 (with such dollar amount being subject to adjustment in the same manner as the number of Shares set forth in the column headers of the table above), then the Make-Whole Exchange Property Rate will be 5.6338.

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in no event will the Make-Whole Exchange Property Rate be an amount greater than 5.6338 Shares (or Exchange Property Units, if applicable) (subject to adjustment in the same manner as the number of Shares set forth in the table above).

Section 6.7 Reimbursement Obligations.

(a) If Shareholder has actual knowledge or is notified by the Collateral Agent that Indemnifiable Taxes have been imposed with respect to any Exchange Property (including any distribution with respect thereto), Shareholder shall, within five (5) Business Days, (x) in the case of any Indemnifiable Taxes in respect of any Excess Cash Dividends, pay, or cause to be paid, to Purchaser such additional amounts as will be necessary in order that the amount available to be paid by Purchaser under the Trust Securities is no less than the amount that would have been so available in the absence of any Indemnifiable Taxes and (y) in the case of any other Indemnifiable Taxes, pledge, or cause to be pledged, to the Collateral Agent such additional amounts as will be necessary in order that the amount of Collateral (net of such Indemnifiable Taxes) equals the Required Pledged Assets. Without duplication of the foregoing, if Mexico, or any other jurisdiction in which Shareholder is organized, resident or doing business for tax purposes, imposes Indemnifiable Taxes on payments to or by Purchaser in respect of Excess Cash Dividends pursuant to the second paragraph of Section 6.1(d), Shareholder shall, within five (5) Business Days after Shareholder obtains actual knowledge or is notified by Purchaser that such a payment will be made, pay, or cause to be paid, to Purchaser such additional amounts as will be necessary in order that the amount receivable by a holder or beneficial owner of Trust Securities is no less than the amount that would have been so received in the absence of such Indemnifiable Taxes. Shareholder may satisfy any payment obligation under the second paragraph of Section 6.1(d) or this Section 6.7(a), in whole or in part, by instructing the Collateral Agent to release from the Collateral and deliver to Purchaser any assets that Shareholder would be entitled to have released from the Collateral under Section 5.6 of the Collateral Agreement were it to satisfy the obligation by making a payment of cash. Any payment or pledge obligation described in this Section 6.7(a) (except for any such payment obligation in respect of Excess Quarterly Dividends) shall constitute a “Reimbursement Obligation”. The foregoing obligations will survive any termination or discharge of this Agreement or Trust Securities.

(b) Shareholder will pay, or cause to be paid, any Documentary Taxes imposed by any Relevant Jurisdiction on the receipt of Shares or other Exchange Property by Purchaser and holders and beneficial owners of the Trust Securities and (where applicable) reimburse Purchaser as an additional amount for the payment of any Documentary Taxes as a result of or otherwise with respect to the transactions contemplated hereunder. Purchaser will use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with Shareholder to pay, reduce or eliminate any such Documentary Taxes.

ARTICLE VII

ACCELERATION UPON AN EVENT OF DEFAULT; TRANSFER AGENT INSTRUCTIONS

Section 7.1 Events of Default. If one or more of the following events (each an “Event of Default”) shall occur:

(a) an Insolvency Event shall occur with respect to Shareholder; or

(b) a Breach Event shall occur; or

then, upon the occurrence of any such event, Shareholder’s Obligations will automatically be accelerated (such acceleration, an “Acceleration upon Event of Default”). In that event, Shareholder will become obligated to deliver the maximum number and amount of each type of Exchange Property then deliverable under this Agreement.

Section 7.2 Voting. Shareholder will have the right to vote any pledged Shares or Exchange Securities pursuant to the terms of the Securities Account Control Agreement.

ARTICLE VIII

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 8.1 Adjustments; Calculations; Selection of Independent Investment Banking Firm; Appointment of Collateral Agent.

(a) Unless otherwise explicitly stated herein, Purchaser shall be responsible for all determinations and adjustments hereunder, including with respect to Article VI or any delivery of Shares, Exchange Property or any cash for fractional Shares or other Exchange Securities, each of which shall be made in a commercially reasonable manner, and shall furnish Shareholder notice of any such adjustment or determination and shall provide Shareholder reasonable opportunity to review the calculations pertaining to any such adjustment or determination. In connection with any such adjustment or determination, the Administrator shall retain, on behalf of Purchaser, a nationally recognized independent investment banking firm for such purpose.

Section 8.4 Governing Law; Severability. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York. To the extent permitted by law, the unenforceability or invalidity of any provision or provisions of this Agreement shall not render any other provision or provisions contained in this Agreement unenforceable or invalid. No claim, counterclaim or dispute of any kind or nature whatsoever arising out of or in any way relating to this Agreement (“Claim”) may be commenced, prosecuted or continued in any court other than the courts of the State of New York located in the City and County of New York or in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, or in the courts of the domicile of each of the parties hereto, in respect of actions brought against any such party as a defendant, which courts shall have exclusive jurisdiction over the adjudication of such matters, and each of the parties hereto consents and irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts and personal service with respect thereto. Each of the parties hereto hereby consents to personal jurisdiction, service and venue in any court in which any Claim arising out of or in any way relating to this Agreement is brought by any third party against any indemnified party. Each of the parties hereto (each on its behalf and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, on behalf of its stockholders and affiliates) irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the extent permitted by applicable law, (i) any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such Claim, (ii) all right to trial by jury in any action, proceeding or counterclaim (whether based upon contract, tort or otherwise) in any way arising out of or relating to this Agreement, (iii) any other jurisdiction to which it may otherwise be entitled and (iv) any right to which it may be entitled, on account of place of residence or domicile.

Shareholder hereby appoints, and further agrees to take any and all action as may be necessary to maintain such designation and appointment of such authorized agent in full force and effect until the termination of this Agreement from the date hereof, without power of revocation, CT Corporation System as its agent to accept and acknowledge on its behalf service of any and all process that may be served in any action, proceeding or counterclaim in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement (the “Process Agent”).

Section 8.5 Entire Agreement. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, this Agreement constitutes the entire agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement and supersedes all prior agreements, understandings and negotiations, both written and oral, among the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement.

Section 8.6 Amendments; Waivers.

(a) Any provision of this Agreement may be amended or waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retrospectively or prospectively) if, and only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and signed, in the case of an amendment, by Purchaser and Shareholder or, in the case of a waiver, by the party against whom the waiver is to be effective. Purchaser agrees that it will not, without Shareholder’s written consent, agree to amend or waive any provision of the Trust Agreement in any manner that adversely affects the rights or Obligations of Shareholder hereunder or alter the conditions for the termination of the Trust Agreement and Purchaser pursuant to Section 8.3 of the Trust Agreement. No failure or delay by either party in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver of such right, power or privilege nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege preclude any other or further exercise of such right, power or privilege or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies provided in this Agreement shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Purchaser and Shareholder agree to use their commercially reasonable efforts to amend this Agreement, from time to time on and after the date of this Agreement, to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency or to make this Agreement consistent with the description thereof in the offering circular, dated December 8, 2017, of Purchaser relating to the offering of the Trust Securities.

Section 8.8 Non-Assignability. This Agreement and the rights and obligations of the parties under this Agreement may not be assigned by either party without the prior written consent of the other party, and any purported assignment without such consent shall be void.

Section 8.9 No Third Party Rights; Successors and Assigns. This Agreement is not intended and shall not be construed to create any rights in any person other than Shareholder and Purchaser and their respective successors and assigns and no person shall assert any rights as third party beneficiary under this Agreement. Whenever any of the parties to this Agreement is referred to, such reference shall be deemed to include the successors and assigns of such party. All the covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement by or on behalf of Shareholder and Purchaser shall bind and be enforceable by, and inure to the benefit of, their respective successors and assigns whether so expressed or not, and shall be enforceable by and inure to the benefit of Purchaser and Shareholder and their respective successors and assigns.

Section 8.10 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed, acknowledged and delivered in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, but all of which shall constitute a single agreement, with the same effect as if the signatures on each such counterpart were upon the same instrument. A copy of a counterpart sent by facsimile machine or other electronic means must be treated as an original counterpart, is sufficient evidence of the execution of the original and may be produced in evidence for all purposes in place of the original.

Section 8.11 Termination. This Agreement shall terminate upon the earliest of (i) the date 90 days after the execution of this Agreement if (x) the Firm Trust Securities have not theretofore been issued to the Initial Purchasers under the Securities Purchase Agreement or (y) the net worth of Purchaser is not at least $100.00 at such time, and (ii) the date 10 Business Days after the Exchange Date (or, if this Agreement shall be accelerated pursuant to Article VII hereof, or pursuant to an Optional Acceleration or a Special Acceleration with a Non-Marketable Securities Percentage of 100%), 10 Business Days after the date on which Purchaser shall receive the Shares or other consideration then required to be delivered by each Shareholder, or the net proceeds of any sale of the Collateral pursuant to Section 7.3 of the Collateral Agreement).
