Without limiting the foregoing, the Company agrees prior to the Closing (i) to direct its transfer agent to effect timely issuance of Class A Shares to Class C Acquirors in time for such Class C Acquirors to effect Regular-Way Settlement of Class C Conversions, subject to the transfer agent having been provided with notice from the depositary of such Class C Shares of the conversion of such Class C Shares in the form as may be agreed from time to time among the transfer agent and the depositary) prior to the consummation of the Class C Conversion being effected and (ii) to direct the depositary for the Class C Shares to establish a mechanism with the transfer agent for the conversion of Class C Shares to, and issuance of, Class A Shares upon, and promptly following, the receipt by the depositary of a conversion notice with respect to such Class C Shares in electronic form (or such other form as may be customarily used from time to time by the depositary to effect conversions and issuances within the applicable Regular-Way Settlement timeframe) from the applicable Class C Acquiror. Fairholme agrees (x) to take such actions, or deliver such information, as may be reasonably requested by the Company from time to time to facilitate the Company’s obligations under this Section 5.6(a) and (y) to advise the Class C Acquirors that any Sale of Class C Shares to a Person other than another Class C Acquiror or other Fairholme Affiliate shall be effected as Sale of Class A Shares and a related Class C Conversion.

9

6. Termination.

6.1. Conditions of Termination. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, this Agreement:

(a) may be terminated at any time:

(i) by mutual consent of the Company and Fairholme; or

(ii) by either the Company, on the one hand, or Fairholme, on the other hand, if any preliminary or permanent injunction or other judgment or order issued by any court of competent jurisdiction or other Law prohibiting, restraining or rendering illegal the consummation of the Transactions shall be in effect and shall have become final and nonappealable;

(b) shall be terminated automatically if at any time SHC publicly announces that it has determined to cancel the Rights Offering.

6.2. Effect of Termination. In the event of any termination pursuant to Section 6.1, this Agreement shall become null and void and have no effect, with no continuing obligation or liability on the part of any party hereto, or their respective directors, trustees, officers, agents or shareholders, with respect to this Agreement; provided that nothing herein shall relieve any party of any liability for its willful breach; provided, further that the provisions of Article 7 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

7. Indemnification.

7.1. Indemnification of Fairholme. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Fairholme and each Class C Acquiror and their respective Affiliates and each officer, director, employee, advisor, partner, member, controlling entity and agent of Fairholme and each Class C Acquiror (each, an “Indemnified Person”) from and against any and all losses, liabilities, causes of action, demands, claims, damages, judgments, reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel) (collectively, “Losses”) to which any such Indemnified Person may become subject arising out of, related to or in connection to any

10

Proceeding (other than Proceedings brought by an Indemnified Person against the Company, SHC or any of their respective Affiliates) relating to this Agreement, the Transactions, the Rights Offering or the Distribution, regardless of whether any Indemnified Person is a party thereto, brought by a third party or by the Company or any of its Affiliates, including, without limitation, any action alleging misconduct or other liability on account of any Indemnified Person entering into or otherwise participating in this Agreement or the Transactions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be required to indemnify any Indemnified Person for any Losses to the extent that such Losses are finally judicially determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence, fraud or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Person or resulted from such Indemnified Person’s breach of this Agreement.

7.2. Settlement. The Company will not, without the prior written consent of each Indemnified Person, settle, compromise, consent to the entry of any judgment in or otherwise seek to terminate any Proceeding in respect of which indemnification may be sought hereunder (whether or not any Indemnified Person is a party thereto) unless such settlement, compromise, consent or termination (i) includes an unconditional release of each Indemnified Person from all liability arising out of such Proceeding and (ii) does not include a statement as to, or an admission of, fault, culpability, or a failure to act by or on behalf of such Indemnified Person.

7.3. Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this Article 7 is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an Indemnified Person under Section 7.1 in respect of any losses, liabilities, causes of action, demands, claims, damages, judgments, costs and expenses referred to therein, then the Company shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Person as a result of such losses, liabilities, claims, causes of action, damages, or judgments in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Class C Acquirors on the other from this Agreement and the Transactions. The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Class C Acquirors on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as to the aggregate amount of then-outstanding Class A Shares and Class C Shares bears to the amount of Class A Shares and Class C Shares held by the Class C Acquirors. If, however, the allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentences is not permitted by applicable law, then the Company shall contribute to such amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Person in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the Class C Acquirors on the other in connection with the actions or omissions which resulted in such losses, liabilities, causes of action, demands, claims, damages, judgments, costs and expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The Company and Fairholme, on behalf of itself and each of the Class C Acquirors, agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 7.3 were determined by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above.

7.4. Indemnification Procedures. An Indemnified Person shall give written notice to the Company of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification promptly after the discovery by such party of any matters giving rise to a claim for indemnification; provided that the failure of any Indemnified Person to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the Company of its obligations under Section 7.1 unless and to the extent that the Company shall have been actually prejudiced by the failure of such Indemnified Person to so notify such party.

11

In case of any Proceeding against an Indemnified Person in respect of which indemnification has been sought hereunder by an Indemnified Person, the Company shall be entitled to assume and conduct the defense; provided, however, that unless (i) the Company shall have failed to assume the defense of such claim within a reasonable time after receipt of notice of such claim from the Indemnified Person or (ii) in the reasonable judgment of any Indemnified Person (based upon advice of its counsel) a conflict of interest may exist between the Indemnified Person and the Company with respect to such claims, then, in each case, the Indemnified Person may assume responsibility for conducting the defense (in which case the Company shall be liable for any reasonable legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Indemnified Person in connection with assuming and conducting the defense). The Company shall not be liable for any settlement of any action, suit, claim or proceeding effected without its written consent.

7.5. Limitations on Indemnification. In no event shall the Company have any liability to the Indemnified Persons for (a) (i) Losses computed on a multiple of earnings, book value or similar basis, (ii) special, speculative, indirect or consequential Loss or lost profits, or (iii) punitive damages (except in the case of clauses (i) or (ii), Losses incurred by an Indemnified Person from the award of such amounts against the Indemnified Person in a Proceeding) or (b) for any Losses in an amount greater than the aggregate Purchase Price paid by the Indemnified Persons.

intended to and shall not confer upon any person other than the parties hereto any rights or remedies hereunder. Any provision of this Agreement may be amended or modified in whole or in part at any time by an agreement in writing between the parties hereto executed in the same manner as this Agreement. No failure on the part of any party to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise by any party of any right preclude any other or future exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right.

8.4. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to constitute an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same document. Signatures to this Agreement transmitted by facsimile transmission, by electronic mail in “portable document format” (“.pdf”) form, or by any other electronic means intended to preserve the original graphic and pictorial appearance of a document will have the same effect as physical delivery of the paper document bearing the original signature.

8.5. Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Venue. This Agreement shall be governed by, and interpreted in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York. EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE JURISDICTION OF THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK AND THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK LOCATED IN THE COUNTY OF NEW YORK, STATE OF NEW YORK (AND OF THE APPROPRIATE APPELLATE COURTS THEREFROM) FOR THE PURPOSE OF ANY JUDICIAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO OR CONCERNING THIS AGREEMENT. The parties hereby waive, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any objection which they now or hereafter may have to personal jurisdiction or to the laying of venue of any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any court referred to in this Section 7.5 and such parties agree not to plead or claim the same. EACH OF THE PARTIES IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY IN CONNECTION WITH ANY PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY

8.6. Expenses. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, each party hereto shall bear its own costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred in connection with this Agreement and the Transactions.

8.8. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is determined to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect provided that the economic and legal substance of any of the Transactions is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party. In the event of any such determination, the parties agree to negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement to fulfill as closely as possible the original intent and purpose hereof. To the extent permitted by law, the parties hereby to the same extent waive any provision of law that renders any provision hereof prohibited or unenforceable in any respect.

8.9. Specific Performance. The parties agree that if any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached, irreparable damage would occur, no adequate remedy at law would exist and damages would be difficult to determine, and that the parties will be entitled to specific performance of the terms hereof, in addition to any other remedy at law or equity.
