(iii)Absence of Defaults and Conflicts Resulting from Transaction. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions herein contemplated will not result in a breach or violation of any of the terms and provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any property or assets of the Selling Stockholder pursuant to, (i) any statute, any rule, regulation or order of any governmental agency or body or any court having jurisdiction over the Selling Stockholder or any of their properties (ii) any agreement or instrument to which the Selling Stockholder is a party or by which the Selling Stockholder is bound or to which any of the properties of the Selling Stockholder is subject, or (iii) the charter or by-laws or similar organizational documents of the Selling Stockholder that is a corporation or the constituent documents of the Selling Stockholder that is not a natural person or a corporation, except in the cases of clauses (i) and (ii) above as otherwise would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to materially and adversely impact such Selling Stockholder’s ability to perform its obligations under this Agreement.

3. Sale and Delivery of Shares.

(a)Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Selling Stockholder agrees to sell Shares through the Manager acting as sales agent or directly to the Manager acting as principal from time to time. Sales of the Shares, if any, through the Manager acting as sales agent or directly to the Manager acting as principal will be made by means of ordinary brokers’ transactions on the NYSE or otherwise at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices.

(b)The Shares are to be sold through the Manager on an agented basis on any day (other than a day on which the NYSE is scheduled to close prior to its regular weekday closing time) (each, a “Trading Day”) on which (i) the Selling Stockholder has instructed the Manager to make such sales and (ii) the Company has satisfied its covenants and conditions specified in Sections 5 and 6 hereof. On any Trading Day, the Selling Stockholder may sell Shares through the Manager and, if it determines to do so, shall instruct the Manager by telephone (confirmed promptly by telecopy or email, which confirmation will be promptly acknowledged by the Manager) as to the maximum number of Shares to be sold on such Trading Day and the minimum price per Share at which such Shares may be sold. Subject to the terms and conditions specified herein (including, without limitation, the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Company and the Selling Stockholder and the performance by the Company and the Selling Stockholder of their respective covenants and other obligations, contained herein and the satisfaction of the additional conditions specified in Section 6 hereof), the Manager shall use its commercially reasonable efforts, consistent with its normal trading and sales practices and applicable law and regulations, to sell all of the Shares so designated by the Selling Stockholder as sales agent in accordance with such instruction. The Selling Stockholder and the Manager each acknowledge and agree that (A) there can be no assurance that the Manager will be successful in selling any Shares and (B) the Manager will not incur any liability or obligation to the Selling Stockholder if it fails to sell Shares for any reason other than a failure to use its commercially reasonable efforts, consistent with its normal trading and sales practices and applicable law and regulations, to sell such Shares as required by this Agreement.

(c)The Selling Stockholder or the Manager may, upon notice to the other parties hereto by telephone (confirmed promptly by telecopy or email, which confirmation will be promptly acknowledged by the receiving party), suspend the offering of Shares for any reason and at any time; provided, however, that such suspension shall not affect or impair the parties’ respective obligations with respect to the Shares sold, or with respect to Shares that the Selling Stockholder has agreed to sell, hereunder prior to the giving of such notice.

(d)The gross sales price of any Shares sold pursuant to this Agreement by the Manager acting as sales agent of the Selling Stockholder shall be equal to, in the discretion of the Manager but subject to the specific instructions of the Selling Stockholder, the market price prevailing at the time of sale for the Shares sold by the Manager on the NYSE or otherwise, at prices related to prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices. The compensation payable to the Manager for sales of Shares with respect to which the Manager acts as sales agent shall be up to 2.0% of the gross sales price for such Shares, as agreed between the Selling Stockholder and the Manager at

the time instructions to sell Shares are given pursuant to Section 3(b). The remaining proceeds, after further deduction for any transaction fees, transfer taxes or similar taxes or fees imposed by any Governmental Entity or self-regulatory organization in respect of such sales, shall constitute the net proceeds to the Selling Stockholder for such sales (the “Net Proceeds”). The Manager shall notify the Selling Stockholder as promptly as practicable if any deduction referenced in the preceding sentence will be made. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the Selling Stockholder engages the Manager as sales agent for the sale of Shares that would constitute a “distribution” within the meaning of Rule 100 of Regulation M under the 1934 Act, the Selling Stockholder and the Manager will agree to compensation for the Manager that is customary for such sales. The Company shall not be entitled to any proceeds from the sale of Shares pursuant to this Agreement.

(e)The Manager shall provide written confirmation to the Selling Stockholder following the close of trading on the NYSE on each Trading Day on which Shares are sold under this Agreement on an agented basis setting forth the number of Shares sold on such day, the number of shares sold at each price, the aggregate gross sales proceeds of the Shares, the aggregate Net Proceeds to the Selling Stockholder and the aggregate compensation payable by the Selling Stockholder to the Manager with respect to such sales.

(f)Under no circumstances shall the aggregate gross sales price or number, as the case may be, of Shares offered or sold pursuant to this Agreement, or which are the subject of instructions to the Manager as sales agent pursuant to Section 3(b) hereof, exceed the aggregate gross sales price or number, as the case may be, of Shares (i) referred to in the first paragraph of Section 1, as reduced by prior sales of Shares under this Agreement, (ii) available for sale under the Registration Statement or (iii) duly authorized from time to time to be issued and sold under this Agreement by the Selling Stockholder or approved for listing on the NYSE, and, in each case referred to in clause (ii) and (iii), notified to the Manager in writing. In addition, under no circumstances shall any Shares with respect to which the Manager acts as sales agent be offered or sold, or be the subject of instructions to the Manager as sales agent pursuant to Section 3(b) hereof, at a price lower than the minimum price therefor duly authorized from time to time by the Selling Stockholder and notified to the Manager in writing. The Manager shall have no responsibility for maintaining records with respect to Shares available for sale under the Registration Statement or for determining the aggregate gross sales price, number or minimum price of Shares duly authorized by the Selling Stockholder.

(g)If the exemptive provisions set forth in Rule 101(c)(1) of Regulation M under the 1934 Act are not satisfied with respect to the Company or the Shares, the Company shall promptly notify the Manager and future offers and sales of Shares through the Manager under this Agreement on an agented basis shall be suspended until that or other exemptive provisions have been satisfied in the judgment of each party.

(h)Settlement for sales of Shares will occur on the second business day that is also a Trading Day following the trade date on which such sales are made, unless another date shall be agreed to in writing by the Selling Stockholder and the Manager (each such day, a “Settlement Date”). On each Settlement Date for the sale of Shares through the Manager as sales agent, such Shares shall be delivered by the Selling Stockholder to the Manager in book-entry form to the Manager’s account at The Depository Trust Company against payment by the Manager of the Net Proceeds from the sale of such Shares in same day funds delivered to an account designated by the Selling Stockholder. If the Selling Stockholder shall default on its obligation to deliver Shares through the Manager as sales agent on any Settlement Date, the Selling Stockholder shall (i) indemnify and hold the Manager harmless against any loss, claim or damage arising from or as a result of such default by the Selling Stockholder and (ii) pay the Manager any commission to which it would otherwise be entitled absent such default.

(i)Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Selling Stockholder shall not offer or sell, or instruct the Manager to offer or sell, any Shares through the Manager as sales agent (and, by notice to the Manager given by telephone (confirmed promptly by telecopy or email), shall cancel any instructions for any such offer or sale of any Shares prior to the commencement of the periods referenced below), and the Manager shall not be obligated to make any such offer or sale of Shares, (i) during any period in which the Selling Stockholder is, or could be deemed to be, in possession of material non-public information or (ii) at any time commencing on the beginning of the Company’s quarterly “black out” period applicable to the Selling Stockholder as then in effect, and through and including the later of the end of such quarterly “black out” period and the time that the Company files a Quarterly

Report on Form 10-Q or an Annual Report on Form 10-K (a “Filing Time”) that includes consolidated financial statements as of and for the same fiscal period or periods, as the case may be, covered by the most recently completed fiscal quarter.

(j)The Manager shall not have any obligation to purchase Shares as principal, whether from the Selling Stockholder or otherwise, unless the Selling Stockholder and the Manager agree as set forth below. Shares purchased from the Selling Stockholder by the Manager as principal shall be made in accordance with terms agreed upon between the Manager and the Selling Stockholder as evidenced by a Terms Agreement. The Manager’s commitment to purchase Shares from the Selling Stockholder as principal shall be deemed to have been made on the basis of the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Company and the Selling Stockholder, and performance by the Company and the Selling Stockholder of their covenants and other obligations, herein contained and shall be subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth. At the time of each Terms Agreement, the Manager shall specify the requirements, if any, for the officers’ certificate, opinions and letters of counsel and accountants’ letter pursuant to Section 4(m), 4(n) and 4(o), respectively, hereof. In the event of a conflict between the terms of this Distribution Agency Agreement and a Terms Agreement, the terms of such Terms Agreement shall control.

4. Covenants. The Company and the Selling Stockholder, severally and not jointly, agree with the Manager, as applicable:

(a)Compliance with Securities Regulations and Commission Requests. The Company, subject to Section 4(b) and 4(c) hereof, will notify the Manager immediately, and confirm the notice in writing, (i) when any post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement or any new registration statement relating to the Shares shall become effective or any amendment or supplement to the Prospectus shall have been filed (other than an amendment or supplement providing solely for the determination of the terms of an offering of securities unless related to an offering of Shares), (ii) of the receipt of any comments from the Commission, (iii) of any request by the Commission for any amendment to the Registration Statement or any amendment or supplement to the Prospectus, including any document incorporated by reference therein, or for additional information, (iv) of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto or any notice of objection to the use of the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto or of the issuance of any order preventing or suspending the use of any preliminary prospectus or the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, or of the suspension of the qualification of any Shares for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, or of the initiation or threatening of any proceedings for any of such purposes or of any examination pursuant to Section 8(d) or 8(e) of the 1933 Act concerning the Registration Statement and (v) if the Company becomes the subject of a proceeding under Section 8A of the 1933 Act in connection with any offering of Shares. In connection with a Terms Agreement, the Company will prepare and file with the Commission, subject to Section 4(c) hereof, a pricing supplement with respect to the offer and sale of Shares covered by such Terms Agreement. The Company will effect all filings required under Rule 424(b), in the manner and within the time period required by Rule 424(b) (without reliance on Rule 424(b)(8)), and will take such steps as it deems necessary to ascertain promptly whether the form of prospectus transmitted for filing under Rule 424(b) was received for filing by the Commission and, in the event that it was not, it will promptly file such prospectus. The Company will make every reasonable effort to prevent the issuance of any stop, prevention or suspension order and, if any such order is issued, to obtain the lifting thereof at the earliest possible moment. In the event of any issuance of a notice of objection, by the Commission, the Company shall take all necessary action to permit offers and sales of Shares by or through the Manager, including, without limitation, amending the Registration Statement or filing a new shelf registration statement relating thereto.

(b)Continued Compliance with Securities Laws. The Company will comply with the 1933 Act, the 1933 Act Regulations, the 1934 Act and the 1934 Act Regulations so as to permit the completion of sales of Shares as contemplated in this Agreement and in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus. If any event shall occur or condition shall exist as a result of which it is necessary, in the opinion of the Company or counsel for the Manager, to (i) amend the Registration Statement in order that the Registration Statement will not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, (ii) amend or supplement the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus in order that the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus, as the case may be, will not include

(c)Filing or Use of Amendments and Supplements. The Company will give the Manager written notice of its intention to file or use (i) any amendment to the Registration Statement or any amendment or supplement to the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus (other than an amendment or supplement thereto relating solely to the offering of securities unless related to an offering of Shares), whether pursuant to the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act or otherwise or (ii) a pricing supplement disclosing the offer and sale of Shares covered by a Terms Agreement, will furnish the Manager with copies of any such document a reasonable amount of time prior to such proposed filing or use, as the case may be, and will not file or use any such document to which the Manager or counsel for the Manager shall reasonably object. As promptly as practicable after the Company files any Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or any Current Report on Form 8-K (other than reports submitted under Item 2.02 or Item 7.01), the Company shall cause substantially the same disclosure to be filed as a supplement to the Prospectus pursuant to Rule 424(b).

(d)Delivery of Registration Statements. The Company has furnished or will deliver to the Manager and counsel for the Manager, without charge, signed copies of the Registration Statement as originally filed and each amendment thereto (including exhibits filed therewith or incorporated by reference therein and documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference therein) and signed copies of all consents and certificates of experts.

(e)Delivery of Prospectuses. The Company will furnish to the Manager, without charge, upon execution of this Agreement and thereafter during the period in which a prospectus is (or, but for the exception afforded by Rule 172 of the 1933 Act Regulations (“Rule 172”), would be) required by the 1933 Act to be delivered in connection with any offer or sale of Shares, such number of copies of the Prospectus (as amended or supplemented) as the Manager may reasonably request. The Company will also furnish, upon request of the Manager copies of the Prospectus (as amended or supplemented) to each exchange or market on which sales of Shares were made as may be required by the rules and regulations of such exchange or market. The Prospectus and any amendments or supplements thereto furnished in accordance with this Section 4(e) will be identical to the electronically transmitted copies thereof filed with the Commission pursuant to EDGAR, except to the extent permitted by Regulation S-T.

securities in any jurisdiction in which it is not so qualified or to subject itself to taxation in respect of doing business in any jurisdiction in which it is not otherwise so subject.

(h)Earnings Statement. The Company will timely file such reports pursuant to the 1934 Act as are necessary in order to make generally available to its securityholders as soon as practicable an earnings statement for the purposes of, and to provide to the Manager the benefits contemplated by, the last paragraph of Section 11(a) of the 1933 Act.

Upon commencement of the offering of Shares under this Agreement, (A) each time Shares are delivered to the Manager as principal on a Settlement Date, and (B) promptly after each (i) date on which the Registration Statement shall be amended or a new registration statement relating to the Shares shall become effective or the Prospectus shall be amended or supplemented (other than (1) by an amendment or supplement providing solely for the determination of the terms of securities, including the Shares, or (2) in connection with the filing of any Current Report on Form 8-K) (other than any other Current Report on Form 8-K which contains financial statements, supporting schedules or other financial data, including any Current Report on Form 8-K under Item 2.02 of such form that is considered “filed”) (each such date, a “Registration Statement Amendment Date”) and (ii) Company Periodic Report Date, and (B) promptly after each reasonable request by the Manager (each date of any such request by the Manager, a “Request Date”), the Company and the Selling Stockholder will each furnish or cause to be furnished to the Manager or, in the case of clause (A) above, the Manager an officers’ certificate, dated such Settlement Date, an officers’ certificate, dated such Registration

controls the Manager within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act (each an “Indemnified Party”), against any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which such Indemnified Party may become subject, under the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act, other Federal or state statutory law or regulation or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in any part of the Registration Statement at any time, any preliminary prospectus, the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and will reimburse each Indemnified Party for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending against any loss, claim, damage, liability, action, litigation, investigation or proceeding whatsoever (whether or not such Indemnified Party is a party thereto), whether threatened or commenced, and in connection with the enforcement of this provision with respect to any of the above as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement in or omission or alleged omission from any of such documents in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the Manager specifically for use therein, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by the Manager consists of the information described as such in subsection (c) below.

(b)Indemnification of the Manager by Selling Stockholder. The Selling Stockholder will indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnified Party, against any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which such Indemnified Party may become subject, under the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act, other Federal or state statutory law or regulation or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in any part of the Registration Statement at any time, any preliminary prospectus, the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and will reimburse each Indemnified Party for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending against any loss, claim, damage, liability, action, litigation, investigation or proceeding whatsoever (whether or not such Indemnified Party is a party thereto), whether threatened or commenced, and in connection with the enforcement of this provision with respect to the above as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the Selling Stockholder will only be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement in or omission or alleged omission from any of such documents in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the Selling Stockholder specifically for use therein, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by the Selling Stockholder consists of the following information: the Selling Stockholder’s name and corresponding share amounts (and related footnotes) set forth in the table of Principal and Selling Stockholders in the Registration Statement and Prospectus under the heading “Principal and Selling Stockholders” and the Selling Stockholder’s address (the “Selling Stockholder Information”).

(c)Indemnification of Company and Selling Stockholders. The Manager will indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors and each of its officers who signs a Registration Statement and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act, and the Selling Stockholder (each, an “Manager Indemnified Party”) against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which such Manager Indemnified Party may become subject, under the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act, or other Federal or state statutory law or regulation or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in any part of the Registration Statement at any time, any preliminary prospectus, the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus or arise out of or are based upon the omission or the alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the Manager specifically for use therein, and will reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Manager Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending against any such loss, claim, damage, liability, action, litigation, investigation or proceeding whatsoever (whether or not such Manager Indemnified Party is

a party thereto), whether threatened or commenced, based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission as such expenses are incurred, it being understood and agreed that no such information has been furnished by the Manager.

(d)Actions against Parties; Notification. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 7 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against an indemnifying party under subsection (a), (b) or (c) above, notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof; but the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have under subsection (a), (b) or (c) above except to the extent that it has been materially prejudiced (through the forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses) by such failure; and provided further that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have to an indemnified party otherwise than under subsection (a), (b) or (c) above. In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party and it notifies an indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it may wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party (who shall not, except with the consent of the indemnified party, be counsel to the indemnifying party), and after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section 7 for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened action in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party unless such settlement (i) includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on any claims that are the subject matter of such action 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 an indemnified party.

(e)Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this Section 7 is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under subsection (a), (b) or (c) above, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to in subsection (a), (b) or (c) above (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company and the Selling Stockholder on the one hand and the Manager on the other from the offering of the Shares or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Company and the Selling Stockholder on the one hand and the Manager on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company and the Selling Stockholder on the one hand and the Manager on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Selling Stockholder bear to the total commissions or underwriting discounts received by the Manager. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company, the Selling Stockholder or the Manager and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission. The amount paid by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to in the first sentence of this subsection (e) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any action or claim which is the subject of this subsection (e). Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection (e), the Manager shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Shares sold by it to the public were offered to the public exceeds the amount of any damages which the Manager has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the 1933 Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Company, the Selling Stockholder and the Manager agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 7(e) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in this Section 7(e).

8. Survival of Certain Representations and Obligations. The respective indemnities, agreements, representations, warranties and other statements of the Selling Stockholder, of the Company or its officers and of the Manager set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement will remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation, or statement as to the results thereof, made by or on behalf of the Manager, the Selling Stockholder, the Company or any of their respective representatives, officers or directors or any controlling person, and will survive delivery of and payment for the Shares.

(c)In the event of any termination under this Section 9, no party will have any liability to the other party hereto, except that (i) the Manager shall be entitled to any commissions earned in accordance with Section 3(b) hereof, (ii) if at the time of termination (x) the Manager shall own any Shares purchased by it as principal or (y) an offer to purchase any Shares has been accepted by the Selling Stockholder but the Settlement Date has not occurred, the covenants set forth in Section 4 hereof shall remain in effect until such Shares are resold or so delivered, as the case may be, (iii) the covenant set forth in Section 4(h) hereof shall remain in effect, and (iv) the provisions of Section 5 hereof, the indemnity and contribution agreements set forth in Section 7 hereof, and the provisions of Sections 8, 9, 10, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17 and 18 hereof shall remain in effect.
