WHEREAS, the Company is a party to that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of August 7, 2022, by and among the Company, Pfizer Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), and Ribeye Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”) (the “Merger Agreement”), pursuant to which Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company, with the Company surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent on the terms and subject to the conditions contained in the Merger Agreement (the “Merger”), and, in connection therewith, at the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), each issued and outstanding share of Common Stock will be converted automatically into the right to receive $68.50 (the “Merger Consideration”) in cash, without interest and subject to any required withholding of taxes;

WHEREAS, the Merger has been consummated and each share of Common Stock that was issued and outstanding at the Effective Time was converted automatically into the right to receive the Merger Consideration, in each case, on the date hereof (the “Supplemental Indenture Effective Date”), in accordance with the Merger Agreement and substantially concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Supplemental Indenture;

WHEREAS, the consummation of the Merger as contemplated by the Merger Agreement constitutes an Exempted Fundamental Change, a Make-Whole Fundamental Change and a Share Exchange Event under the terms of the Indenture;

WHEREAS, Section 14.07(a) of the Indenture provides that the Company or the successor or acquiring Person, as the case may be, shall enter into a supplemental indenture with the Trustee under Section 10.01(g) of the Indenture, without the consent of the Holders of the Notes, providing that, for all conversions that occur at or after the Effective Time, the right to convert each $1,000 principal amount of Notes shall be changed into a right to convert such principal amount of Notes into the kind and amount of shares of stock, other securities or other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) that a holder of a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate immediately prior to the Merger would have owned or been entitled to receive upon the consummation of the Merger;

WHEREAS, the Company has requested that the Trustee join with it in the execution and delivery of this Supplemental Indenture and, in accordance with Sections 10.05, 14.07(b) and 17.05 of the Indenture, has delivered an Officer’s Certificate to the Trustee and, in accordance with Sections 10.05 and 17.05 of the Indenture, has delivered an Opinion of Counsel to the Trustee, in each case, responsive to and in compliance with the matters stated therein; and

WHEREAS, all covenants and conditions precedent provided for in the Indenture to make this Supplemental Indenture a valid, binding and enforceable instrument in accordance with its terms have been performed and complied with, and the execution and delivery of this Supplemental Indenture has been duly authorized in all respects.

Any capitalized term used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning assigned to such term in the Indenture.

In accordance with Section 10.01(g) and Section 14.07(a) of the Indenture, and at and after the Effective Time, the right to convert each $1,000 principal amount of Notes will be changed to a right to convert such principal amount of Notes into the kind and amount of shares of stock, other securities or other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) that a holder of a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate immediately prior to the Merger would have owned or been entitled to receive upon the consummation of the Merger. Accordingly, any reference in respect of a Holder’s conversion rights to a share of Common Stock in the Indenture shall be deemed a reference to a right to receive a cash amount equal to $68.50.

Each Note, with effect on and from the Supplemental Indenture Effective Date, shall be deemed supplemented, modified and amended in such manner as necessary to make the terms of such Notes consistent with the terms of the Indenture, as amended by this Supplemental Indenture.

Except as hereby expressly amended, the Indenture and the Notes are in all respects ratified and confirmed and all the terms, provisions and conditions thereof shall be and remain in full force and effect. This Supplemental Indenture is executed and shall be construed as an indenture supplemental to the Indenture and, as provided in the Indenture, this Supplemental Indenture forms a part thereof. Each reference in the Indenture to “this Indenture,” “hereunder,” “hereof,” or “herein,” and each reference in the Notes to “the Indenture,” “thereunder,” “thereof,” or “therein” shall mean and be a reference to the Indenture as amended and supplemented by this Supplemental Indenture unless the context otherwise requires. Additionally, each reference in the Notes to “this Note,” “hereunder,” “hereof,” or “herein,” and each reference in the Indenture to “the Notes,” “thereunder,” “thereof,” or “therein” shall mean and be a reference to the Notes as amended and supplemented by this Supplemental Indenture unless the context otherwise requires. The Indenture as amended and supplemented by this Supplemental Indenture shall be read, taken and construed as one and the same instrument, and every Holder of the Notes heretofore or hereafter authenticated and delivered under the Indenture as supplemented by this Supplemental Indenture shall be bound thereby.

The Trustee hereby accepts this Supplemental Indenture and agrees to perform the same under the terms and conditions set forth in the Indenture.
