(a) Counterparty acknowledges and agrees that the Initial Shares delivered on the Initial Share Delivery Date may be sold short to Counterparty. Counterparty further acknowledges and agrees that Dealer may, during (i) the period from the date hereof to the Valuation Date or, if later, the Scheduled Earliest Acceleration Date without regard to any adjustment thereof pursuant to “Special Provisions regarding Transaction Announcements” below, and (ii) the period from and including the first Settlement Valuation Date to and including the last Settlement Valuation Date, if any (together, the “Relevant Period”), purchase Shares in connection with the Transaction, which Shares may be used to cover all or a portion of such short sale or may be delivered to Counterparty. Such purchases will be conducted independently of Counterparty. The timing of such purchases by Dealer, the number of Shares purchased by Dealer on any day, the price paid per Share pursuant to such purchases and the manner in which such purchases are made, including without limitation whether such purchases are made on any securities exchange or privately, shall be within the absolute discretion of Dealer, subject to compliance by Dealer with Section 8(b) below.

(b) It is the intent of the parties that the Transaction comply with the requirements of Rule 10b5-1(c)(1)(i)(B) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and the parties agree that this Confirmation shall be interpreted to comply with the requirements of Rule 10b5-1(c), and Counterparty shall not take any action that results in the Transaction not so complying with such requirements. Without limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, Counterparty acknowledges and agrees that (A) Counterparty does not have, and shall not attempt to exercise, any influence over how, when or whether Dealer effects any purchases of Shares in connection with the Transaction, (B) during the period beginning on (but excluding) the date of this Confirmation and ending on (and including) the last day of the Relevant Period, neither Counterparty nor its officers or employees shall, directly or indirectly, communicate any information regarding Counterparty or the Shares to any employee of Dealer or its Affiliates responsible for trading the Shares in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, (C) Counterparty is entering into the Transaction 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 and (D) Counterparty will not alter or deviate from this Confirmation or enter into or alter a corresponding hedging transaction with respect to the Shares. For the avoidance of doubt, the entry into any Other Specified Repurchase Agreement (as defined below) shall not fall within the ambit of the previous sentence. Counterparty also acknowledges and agrees that any amendment, modification, waiver or termination of this Confirmation must be effected in accordance with the requirements for the amendment or termination of a “plan” as defined in Rule 10b5-1(c) under the Exchange Act. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any such amendment, modification, waiver or termination shall be made in good faith and not as part of a plan or scheme to evade the prohibitions of Rule 10b-5 under the Exchange Act, and no such amendment, modification or waiver shall be made at any time at which Counterparty or any officer or director of Counterparty is aware of any material nonpublic information regarding Counterparty or the Shares. “Other Specified Repurchase Agreement” means, for the Transaction, any similar and substantially contemporaneous transaction or transactions entered into between Counterparty and one or more dealers, which other transaction shall have terms substantially identical to the terms of such Transaction, except for pricing terms and calculation or averaging dates that do not coincide with any Permitted Averaging Days hereunder.

(c) Counterparty represents that it is not on the date hereof engaged in a distribution, as such term is used in Regulation M under the Exchange Act, of any securities of Counterparty. Counterparty shall not, until the end of the Relevant Period, engage in any such distribution (other than a distribution exempt under Rule 102(b) of Regulation M) without prior notice to Dealer (a “Distribution Notice”). Counterparty acknowledges that delivery of a Distribution Notice could result in the occurrence of a Regulatory Disruption.

(d) Counterparty shall, at least one day prior to the first day of the Relevant Period, notify Dealer of the total number of Shares, if any, purchased in Rule 10b-18 purchases of blocks pursuant to the once-a-week block exception contained in Rule 10b-18(b)(4) by or for Counterparty or any of its affiliated purchasers during each of the four calendar weeks preceding the first day of the Relevant Period and during the calendar week in which the first day of the Relevant Period occurs (“Rule 10b-18 purchase”, “blocks” and “affiliated purchaser” each being used as defined in Rule 10b-18).

(e) During the Relevant Period, Counterparty shall (i) notify Dealer prior to the opening of trading in the Shares on any day on which Counterparty makes, or expects to be made any public announcement (as defined in Rule 165(f) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) of any merger, acquisition, or similar transaction involving a recapitalization relating to Counterparty (other than any such transaction in which the consideration consists solely of cash and there is no valuation period), (ii) promptly notify Dealer following any such announcement that such announcement has been made, and (iii) promptly deliver to Dealer following the making of any such announcement a certificate indicating (A) Counterparty’s average daily Rule 10b-18 purchases (as defined in Rule 10b-18) during the three full calendar months preceding the date of the announcement of such transaction and (B) Counterparty’s block purchases (as defined in Rule 10b-18) effected pursuant to paragraph (b)(4) of Rule 10b-18 during the three full calendar months preceding the date of the announcement of such transaction. In addition, Counterparty shall promptly notify Dealer of the earlier to occur of the completion of such transaction and the completion of the vote by target shareholders.

(ii) Counterparty is not relying, and has not relied upon, Dealer or any of its affiliates with respect to the legal, accounting, tax or other implications of this Confirmation and that it has conducted its own analyses of the legal, accounting, tax and other implications of this Confirmation. Further, it acknowledges and agrees that neither Dealer nor any affiliate of Dealer has acted as its advisor in any capacity in connection with this Confirmation or the transactions contemplated hereby.

9

(viii) No state or local (including non-U.S. jurisdictions) law, rule, regulation or regulatory order applicable to the Shares would give rise to any reporting, consent, registration or other requirement (including without limitation a requirement to obtain prior approval from any person or entity) as a result of Dealer or its affiliates owning or holding (however defined) Shares solely in connection with this Transaction.

(ix) Counterparty understands no obligations of Dealer to it hereunder will be entitled to the benefit of deposit insurance and that such obligations will not be guaranteed by any affiliate of Dealer or any governmental agency.

(x) Counterparty is (A) a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes and is organized under the laws of New York and (B) a “U.S. person” (as that term is used in section 1.1441-4(a)(3)(ii) of United States Treasury Regulations) for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

(a) Counterparty acknowledges and agrees that:

(i) During the Relevant Period, Dealer and its Affiliates may buy or sell Shares or other securities or buy or sell options or futures contracts or enter into swaps or other derivative securities in order to establish, adjust or unwind its hedge position with respect to the Transaction;

(ii) Dealer and its Affiliates also may be active in the market for Shares other than in connection with hedging activities in relation to the Transaction;

(iii) Dealer shall make its own determination as to whether, when or in what manner any hedging or market activities in Counterparty’s securities shall be conducted and shall do so in a manner that it deems appropriate to hedge its price and market risk with respect to the Settlement Price and/or the VWAP Price; and

(iv) Any market activities of Dealer and its Affiliates with respect to Shares may affect the market price and volatility of Shares, as well as the Settlement Price and/or the VWAP Price, each in a manner that may be adverse to Counterparty.

(b) During the Relevant Period, Dealer agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to make all purchases of Shares in connection with the Transaction (i) only on Permitted Averaging Days and (ii) in a manner that would comply with the limitations set forth in clauses (b)(1), (b)(2), (b)(3), (b)(4) and (c) of Rule 10b-18 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Rule 10b-18”), in each case as if such rule was applicable to such purchases (in each case, other than purchases made by Dealer as part of its dynamic adjustment of its hedge of the options embedded in the Transaction or that Dealer reasonably determines are attributable solely to Dealer during such period). Without limiting the foregoing, Dealer shall effect all purchases of Shares in connection with the Transaction in a manner that Dealer reasonably believes is in compliance with applicable legal and regulatory requirements.

(a) If a Transaction Announcement occurs on or prior to the Settlement Date, then the Calculation Agent shall make such adjustment to the Price Adjustment Amount (but in any event not below zero) as the Calculation Agent determines appropriate to account for the economic effect of the Transaction Announcement. If a Transaction Announcement occurs after the Trade Date but prior to the Scheduled Earliest Acceleration Date, the Scheduled Earliest Acceleration Date shall be adjusted to be the date of such Transaction Announcement.

(b) “Transaction Announcement” means (i) the announcement of any event that in Calculation Agent’s commercially reasonable judgment, if consummated, would result in an Acquisition Transaction, (ii) an announcement that Counterparty or any of its subsidiaries has entered into an agreement, a letter of intent or an understanding to enter into an Acquisition Transaction, (iii) the announcement of an intention to solicit or enter into, or to explore strategic alternatives or other similar undertaking that may include, an Acquisition Transaction or (iv) any announcement of any change or amendment to any previous Transaction Announcement (including any announcement of the abandonment of any such previously announced Acquisition Transaction). For the avoidance of doubt, announcements as used in this definition of Transaction Announcement refer to any public announcement whether made by the Issuer or a third party.

“Acquisition Transaction” means (i) any Merger Event (and for purposes of this definition the definition of Merger Event shall be read with the references therein to “100%” being replaced by “35%” and to “50%” by “75%” and as if the clause beginning immediately following the definition of Reverse Merger therein to the end of such definition were deleted) or Tender Offer, or any other transaction involving the merger of Counterparty with or into any third party, (ii) the

11

sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of Counterparty, (iii) a recapitalization, reclassification, binding share exchange or other similar transaction with respect to Counterparty, (iv) any acquisition, lease, exchange, transfer, disposition (including by way of spin-off or distribution) of assets (including any capital stock or other ownership interests in subsidiaries) or other similar event by Counterparty or any of its subsidiaries where the aggregate consideration transferable or receivable by or to Counterparty or its subsidiaries exceeds 30% of the market capitalization of Counterparty and (v) any transaction in which Counterparty or its board of directors has a legal obligation to make a recommendation to its shareholders in respect of such transaction (whether pursuant to Rule 14e-2 under the Exchange Act or otherwise).

(a) Alternative Calculations and Payment on Early Termination and on Certain Extraordinary Events. If either party would owe the other party any amount pursuant to Sections 12.2, 12.3, 12.6, 12.7 or 12.9 of the Equity Definitions or pursuant to Section 6(d)(ii) of the Agreement (a “Payment Obligation”), Counterparty shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to satisfy or to require Dealer to satisfy, as the case may be, any such Payment Obligation, in whole or in part, by the Share Termination Alternative (as defined below) by giving irrevocable telephonic notice to Dealer, confirmed in writing within one Scheduled Trading Day, no later than 9:30 A.M. New York City time on the Merger Date, Tender Offer Date, Early Termination Date or date of cancellation or termination in respect of an Extraordinary Event, as applicable (“Notice of Share Termination”); provided that Counterparty shall not have the right to so elect in the event of (i) an Insolvency, a Nationalization, a Merger Event or a Tender Offer, in each case, in which the consideration or proceeds to be paid to holders of Shares consists solely of cash or (ii) an Event of Default in which Counterparty is the Defaulting Party or a Termination Event in which Counterparty is the Affected Party, which Event of Default or Termination Event resulted from an event or events within Counterparty’s control. Upon such Notice of Share Termination, the following provisions shall apply on the Scheduled Trading Day immediately following the Merger Date, Tender Offer Date, Announcement Date, Early Termination Date or date of cancellation or termination in respect of an Extraordinary Event, as applicable, with respect to the Payment Obligation or such portion of the Payment Obligation for which the Share Termination Alternative has been elected (the “Applicable Portion”):

12

(b) Equity Rights; No Collateral. Dealer acknowledges and agrees that this Confirmation is not intended to convey to it rights with respect to the Transaction that are senior to the claims of common stockholders in the event of Counterparty’s bankruptcy. For the avoidance of doubt, the parties agree that the preceding sentence shall not apply at any time other than during Counterparty’s bankruptcy to any claim arising as a result of a breach by Counterparty of any of its obligations under this Confirmation or the Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, the parties acknowledge that this Confirmation is not secured by any collateral that would otherwise secure the obligations of Counterparty herein under or pursuant to any other agreement.

(c) Delivery Procedures and Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Confirmation, Counterparty acknowledges and agrees that, on any day, Dealer (or its agent or affiliate) shall not be obligated to deliver or receive any Shares to or from Counterparty and Counterparty shall not be entitled to receive any Shares if such receipt or delivery would result in Dealer directly or indirectly beneficially owning (as such term is defined for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act) at any time in excess of 4.9% of the outstanding Shares. Any purported receipt or delivery of the Shares shall be void and have no effect to the extent (but only to the extent) that such receipt or delivery of such Shares would result in Dealer directly or indirectly so beneficially owning in excess of 4.9% of the outstanding Shares. If, on any day, any delivery or receipt of the Shares by Dealer (or its agent or affiliate) is not effected, in whole or in part, as a result of this provision, Dealer’s and Counterparty’s respective obligations to make or accept such receipt or delivery shall not be extinguished and such receipt or delivery shall be effected over time as promptly as Dealer reasonably determines that such receipt or delivery would not result in Dealer directly or indirectly beneficially owning in excess of 4.9% of the outstanding Shares.

(d) Intentionally omitted.

(e) Staggered Settlement. If Dealer would owe Counterparty any Shares pursuant to the “Settlement Terms” above, Dealer may, by notice to Counterparty on or prior to the Settlement Date (a “Nominal Settlement Date”), elect to deliver the Shares deliverable on such Nominal Settlement Date on two or more dates (each, a “Staggered Settlement Date”) or at two or more times on the Nominal Settlement Date as follows: (i) in such notice, Dealer will specify to Counterparty the related Staggered Settlement Dates (each of which will be on or prior to such Nominal Settlement Date) or delivery times and how it will allocate the Shares it is required to deliver under “Settlement Terms” above among the Staggered Settlement Dates or delivery times; and (ii) the aggregate number of Shares that Dealer will deliver to Counterparty hereunder on all such Staggered Settlement Dates and delivery times will equal the number of Shares that Dealer would otherwise be required to deliver on such Nominal Settlement Date.

13

(f) Adjustments. All calculations, adjustments and determinations made by the Calculation Agent or Determining Party shall be made in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner. For the avoidance of doubt, whenever the Calculation Agent is called upon to make an adjustment or determination pursuant to the terms of this Confirmation or the Definitions to take into account the effect of an event or circumstance, the Calculation Agent shall make such adjustment or determination by reference to the effect of such event on the Hedging Party, assuming that the Hedging Party maintains a commercially reasonable hedge position.

(g) Transfer and Assignment. Notwithstanding any provision of the Agreement to the contrary, Dealer may, subject to applicable law, transfer and assign all of its rights and obligations under the Transaction without the consent of Counterparty to any Affiliate of Dealer whose obligations hereunder are guaranteed by Dealer; provided that Dealer may not assign its rights and obligations under the Transaction (A) if such assignment would result in (i) Counterparty being required to pay the assignee 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 Counterparty would have been required to pay to Dealer in the absence of such assignment or (ii) Counterparty receiving 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 would have been required to be so withheld or deducted in the absence of such assignment, unless the assignee would be required to make additional payments pursuant to Section 2(d)(i)(4) of the Agreement corresponding to such withholding or deduction, (B) if it would be unlawful for either party to perform any obligation under the Transaction as a result of such transfer, (C) if an Event of Default or Termination Event would occur as a result of such transfer or (D) if Counterparty would incur or become subject to any material additional regulatory or other obligation as a result of such transfer.

(h) Additional Termination Event. It shall constitute an Additional Termination Event with respect to which the Transaction is the sole Affected Transaction and Counterparty is the sole Affected Party and Dealer shall be the party entitled to designate an Early Termination Date pursuant to Section 6(b) of the Agreement:

(i) if, at any time during the Relevant Period, the price per Share on the Exchange, as determined by the Calculation Agent, is at or below the Threshold Price (as provided in Annex B to this Confirmation); or

(ii) if Counterparty shall declare or pay any Dividend (as defined above) to holders of record as of any date occurring on or following the Trade Date and prior to the Settlement Date or, if the provisions of Annex A apply, the Cash Settlement Payment Date, other than an ordinary cash dividend of the Ordinary Dividend Amount specified in Annex B or less per Share to holders of record on each of the Ordinary Dividend Record Dates specified in Annex B (or, in each case, any later date within the same quarterly fiscal period of Counterparty)].

(i) Amendments to Equity Definitions. The following amendments shall be made to the Equity Definitions:

(i) Section 12.9(b)(iv) of the Equity Definitions is hereby amended by (A) deleting (1) subsection (A) in its entirety, (2) the phrase “or (B)” following subsection (A) and (3) the phrase “in each case” in subsection (B); and (B) deleting the phrase “neither the Non-Hedging Party nor the Lending Party lends Shares in the amount of the Hedging Shares or” in the penultimate sentence; and
