(a) Section 7(a) of the Rights Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:

 

“(a) The Rights shall not be exercisable until, and shall become exercisable on, the Distribution Date (unless otherwise provided herein, including, without limitation, the restrictions on exercisability set forth in Section 11(a)(ii) and Section 23(a) hereof). Except as otherwise provided herein, the Rights may be exercised, in whole or in part, at any time commencing with the Distribution Date upon surrender of the Rights Certificate, with the form of election to purchase and certificate on the reverse side thereof duly executed (with signatures duly guaranteed), to the Rights Agent at the principal office of the Rights Agent in New York, New York together with payment of the Exercise Price for each Right exercised, subject to adjustment as hereinafter provided, at or prior to the Close of Business on the earlier of (i) March 31, 2021 (or if the Distribution Date shall have occurred before March 31, 2021, at the Close of Business on the 90th day following the Distribution Date) or (ii) the date on which the Rights are redeemed as provided in Section 23 hereof (such earlier date being herein referred to as the “Expiration Date”).”
