     SECTION 2.2 Financing Statements. Pledgor agrees to take all actions which may be necessary or advisable under all applicable laws to perfect the security interests created and granted by this Agreement in favor of Secured Party (for its own benefit and the benefit of the other Acquiror Indemnified Parties) and Pledge Collateral Agent against Pledgor, to ensure that the security interest of Secured Party (for its own benefit and the benefit of the other Acquiror Indemnified Parties) in the Indemnification Collateral is a first priority lien, senior and prior in right of claim to any creditors claiming an interest in and to the Indemnification Collateral (except as provided below with respect to the Pledge Collateral), and to ensure that the security interest of Secured Party (for its own benefit and the benefit of the other Acquiror Indemnified Parties) in the Pledge Collateral granted to Pledge Collateral Agent for the benefit of Secured Party (for its own benefit and the benefit of the other Acquiror Indemnified Parties) pursuant to this Agreement for the purpose of securing the Obligations ranks pari passu with the security interest in the Pledge Collateral granted to Collateral Agent pursuant to the Pledge Agreement for the benefit of Secured Party. In furtherance thereof, Pledgor hereby authorizes the Secured Party to record and file with the appropriate filing office, at Pledgor’s own expense, UCC-1 financing statements (including any continuation statements with respect to such financing statements when applicable) with respect to the security interests in the Indemnification Collateral and the Pledge Collateral granted to Secured Party (for its own benefit and the benefit of the other Acquiror Indemnified Parties) and Pledge Collateral Agent, respectively, pursuant to this Agreement, and Secured Party shall deliver a file-stamped copy of such financing statements or continuation statements to Pledgor. Secured Party hereby acknowledges on its own behalf and on behalf of the other Acquiror Indemnified Parties that portions of the Pledge Collateral are subject to the lien created under, and the rights in favor of the Collateral Agent granted by, the terms of the Pledge Agreement and agrees (i) not to exercise any of its remedies hereunder with respect to any Common Equity Unit that is not a Pledged Unit and (ii) not to take any action under this Agreement with respect to the Pledge Collateral relating to any Pledged Unit with respect to which its remedies hereunder are not being exercised.

Pledgor will be required to deliver Indemnification Collateral as follows: (i) in the case of cash, payment or delivery to the Indemnification Collateral Account; (ii) in the case of certificated securities that cannot be delivered by book-entry, delivery in appropriate physical form to Securities Intermediary accompanied by duly executed instruments of transfer properly completed and executed in blank; (iii) in the case of securities that can be delivered in book-entry form, the giving of written instructions to the issuer or the appropriate securities intermediary sufficient if complied with to result in a legally effective transfer of the relevant interest to Securities Intermediary; and (iv) in the case of uncertificated securities that cannot be delivered in book-entry form, the giving of instructions to the issuer or its transfer agent sufficient if complied with to result in a legally effective transfer of the relevant interest to the Securities Intermediary. In the case of Pledge Collateral, Stock Purchase Contract Agent, Pledgor, Secured Party, Securities Intermediary and Pledge Collateral Agent agree to take such actions as may be necessary to ensure that the Pledge Collateral required to be credited to the Pledge Collateral Accounts under the Pledge Agreement is properly so credited in the manner required by the Pledge Agreement.

          (ii) without the prior written consent of Secured Party, not to be unreasonably withheld, it will not change its type of organization, jurisdiction of organization or other legal structure.
     SECTION 2.5 Secured Party and Pledge Collateral Agent May Perform. If Pledgor fails to perform any of its obligations under this Agreement, Secured Party may itself perform, or cause performance of, such obligations with respect to the Indemnification Collateral, and Pledge Collateral Agent, pursuant to instructions from Secured Party, may itself perform, or cause performance of, such obligations with respect to the Pledge Collateral, and the expense of Secured Party or Pledge Collateral Agent incurred in connection with such performance shall be payable by Pledgor.
     SECTION 2.6 Secured Party and Pledge Collateral Agent Appointed Attorneys-in-Fact. Pledgor hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints Secured Party, Pledge Collateral Agent and any officer or agent thereof, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorneys-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of Pledgor or in Secured Party’s or Pledge Collateral Agent’s own name (but for the benefit of Secured Party and the other Acquiror Indemnified Parties), for the purpose of carrying out the terms of this Agreement, to take any and all appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and instruments that may be necessary or useful to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, including, without limitation, taking any action which may be necessary in any applicable jurisdiction to perfect and to maintain the perfection and priority of Secured Party’s interest in the Indemnification Collateral Account and the Indemnification Collateral and Pledge Collateral Agent’s security interest (for the benefit of Secured Party and the other Acquiror Indemnified Parties) in the Pledge Collateral and the Pledge Collateral Accounts, including, without limitation, the filing of any financing and continuation statements in any applicable jurisdiction and to take any action and to execute any instrument, representing any dividend, interest payment or other distribution in respect of the Indemnification Collateral or the Pledge Collateral or any part thereof and to give full discharge for the same as Secured Party or Pledge Collateral Agent (for the benefit of Secured Party and the other Acquiror Indemnified Parties) may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purpose of this Agreement. To the extent permitted by law, Pledgor hereby ratifies all that said attorneys shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof. This power of attorney is a power coupled with an interest and is irrevocable.

9


 

proceeds, returns and other amounts (such amounts, the “Includible Amounts”) in Pledgor’s gross income for federal, state, local and other Tax purposes, whether or not the Includible Amounts have been distributed, and the Includible Amounts shall be reported, as and to the extent required by Law, by the Securities Intermediary and Pledge Collateral Agent to the IRS, or any other relevant Tax Authority, on IRS Form 1099 or 1042S (or other appropriate form) as income and gain earned by the Pledgor, and Pledgor shall duly pay any Taxes resulting therefrom. Any other Tax Returns required to be filed will be prepared and filed by Pledgor with the IRS and any other relevant Tax Authority as required by law. Pledgor shall indemnify the Secured Party against any and all Taxes relating to the Eligible Collateral, Indemnification Collateral or Pledge Collateral, including all Taxes imposed on a Secured Party to the extent that the Secured Party is required by applicable Tax Law (including section 468B of the Code and any temporary or final regulations issued thereunder) to include any Includible Amounts in the Secured Party’s gross income for federal, state, local or other Tax purposes and all Taxes resulting from the disposition or transfer of the Eligible Collateral, Indemnification Collateral or Pledge Collateral (including any transfer or disposition that is made in order to satisfy the payment of an Unpaid Obligation Amount), and Pledgor’s right to indemnity with respect to such Taxes shall be considered an Unpaid Obligation Amount for purposes of this Agreement. The Securities Intermediary and the Pledge Collateral Agent are holding the Indemnification Collateral Account and the Pledge Collateral Accounts for the benefit of the Secured Party and not for their own account. Pledgor shall pay or reimburse the Stock Purchase Contract Agent, the Pledge Collateral Agent and the Securities Intermediary upon request for any transfer taxes or other taxes relating to the Indemnification Collateral or the Pledge Collateral incurred in connection herewith and shall indemnify and hold harmless the Stock Purchase Contract Agent, the Pledge Collateral Agent and the Securities Intermediary from any amounts that they are obligated to pay in the way of such taxes. Any payments of income from the Indemnification Account or the Pledge Collateral Accounts shall be subject to withholding regulations then in force with respect to United States taxes. The Pledgor shall provide the Stock Purchase Contract Agent, the Pledge Collateral Agent and the Securities Intermediary with appropriate W-9 forms for tax identification number certifications, or W-8 forms for non-resident alien certifications. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Pledgor shall be entitled to any interest earnings in the Indemnification Account and the Pledge Collateral Accounts. It is understood that the Pledge Collateral Agent and the Securities Intermediary shall only be responsible for income reporting with respect to income earned on the Pledge Collateral Accounts and the Indemnification Account and will not be responsible for any other reporting. This paragraph shall survive notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement or the resignation or removal of the Stock Purchase Contract Agent, the Pledge Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary.
     SECTION 2.8 Voting Rights. Pledgor shall be entitled to exercise any and all voting and other consensual rights, if any, pertaining to the Indemnification Collateral, the Pledge Collateral or any part thereof for any purpose, subject to the limitations set forth in the Amended Investor Rights Agreement. Neither Pledge Collateral Agent nor Securities Intermediary shall have any obligation to or responsibilities with respect to the exercise of voting or any other consensual rights pertaining to the Indemnification Collateral, the Pledge Collateral or any part thereof.
     SECTION 2.9 Ability to Enforce Collateral. In accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Indemnification Provisions and the Ancillary Agreements, from time to time,

10


 

Secured Party may determine that it or any of the other Acquiror Indemnified Parties is owed an amount in respect of the Obligations, which amount may be equal in value to all or any part of the amount to the credit of the Indemnification Collateral Account. In such event, which may occur multiple times as provided in the agreements or provisions constituting the Obligations, Secured Party is entitled in accordance with the Indemnification Provisions to make a demand upon Pledgor for, or otherwise receive, payment for such Obligations (for its own benefit or the benefit of the other applicable Acquiror Indemnified Parties). Pursuant to Section 11.05(a) of the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement, Pledgor may in some instances satisfy such demand by delivering Eligible Collateral that is credited to the Indemnification Collateral Account with a Fair Value equal to the amount demanded; provided, however, that any such delivery of Eligible Collateral will be made in the following order of priority: (i) first, in cash and Permitted Investments then held in the Indemnification Collateral Account; provided, that any such Permitted Investments shall have been liquidated into cash in accordance with the Investment Guidelines (the “Liquidation Cash Proceeds”) prior to making any such delivery from the Indemnification Collateral Account; and (ii), only to the extent that the aggregate Fair Value of the cash and such Liquidation Cash Proceeds then held in the Indemnification Collateral Account is less than the amount required to be delivered by the Pledgor, second, by delivery of any cash and such Liquidation Cash Proceeds then held in the Indemnification Collateral Account, plus such number of Common Equity Units credited to the Indemnification Collateral Account the Fair Value of which equals the amount required to be so delivered less the Fair Value of any such cash and Liquidation Cash Proceeds then held in the Indemnification Control Account.
     Upon receipt from Pledgor of a request complying with the requirements of such Section 11.05(a) that some or all of the amount demanded be paid using Eligible Collateral constituting Indemnification Collateral, Secured Party agrees to instruct Securities Intermediary to withdraw the requested amount of cash from the Indemnification Collateral Account and/or debit the requested number of Common Equity Units and transfer such cash and/or Common Equity Units to such account as Secured Party may designate in payment of Obligations with a Fair Value represented by such transferred cash and/or Common Equity Units. Securities Intermediary may conclusively assume, in complying with such instructions from the Secured Party, that Secured Party has received the foregoing request from Pledgor and that the amount of Eligible Collateral to be withdrawn as specified in such instructions is in the proper amount and shall comply with such instructions as soon as practicable.
     The failure of Pledgor to satisfy such demand or make such payment in full (in either case, regardless of whether such demand is permitted by the Indemnification Provisions to be satisfied by Pledgor prior to default by delivering a request to Secured Party in the manner described above that Secured Party debit Eligible Collateral from the Indemnification Collateral Account), after compliance by Secured Party with the terms of the applicable provisions or agreement constituting the relevant Obligations and the terms of the Indemnification Provisions, including, without limitation, any terms relating to the resolution of disagreements regarding the amount or existence of any indemnification or other Obligation, shall constitute a default hereunder. It shall also constitute a default hereunder if, in the case of any payment required to be made under Article II, Section 6.12 or Sections 11.02(a)(vii),(viii) or (ix) of the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement or the non-indemnification provisions of any Ancillary Agreement, or

11


 

pursuant to the Special Asset Protection Agreement, the Pledgor and AIG shall fail to make such payment in full in accordance with Sections 6.24 and 11.05(a)(i) and (ii) of the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement.
     Upon the occurrence of a default for any of the reasons set forth above, Secured Party may exercise in respect of the Indemnification Collateral, and Pledge Collateral Agent may, for the benefit of Secured Party (whether for Secured Party’s benefit or for the benefit of other Acquiror Indemnified Parties) and upon the instructions of Secured Party, exercise in respect of the Pledge Collateral (subject to the last sentence of Section 2.2), in addition to other rights and remedies provided for herein or in Section 11.05(a) of the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement or otherwise available to it, all the rights and remedies of a secured party on default under the UCC, or under other applicable law, with respect to such portions of the Indemnification Collateral having in the aggregate a value equal to the amount of the Obligations then due to Secured Party but unpaid (the “Unpaid Obligation Amount”), such value to equal, to the extent Eligible Collateral is applied, the Fair Value of such Eligible Collateral and otherwise to equal such other amount as shall be determined in a manner consistent with applicable law. Any instructions from Secured Party shall specify the portions of the Indemnification Collateral with respect to which such remedies shall be exercised as specified in Section 11.05 of the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement and shall certify that such Indemnification Collateral has the value required by the preceding sentence.
     Secured Party may also, without notice except as required by law, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any such default direct Securities Intermediary from time to time, to the extent permitted by law, to (i) transfer, deliver, and pay over to Secured Party, or as Secured Party directs, all or any part of the Indemnification Collateral and the proceeds thereof (including, without limitation, any distributions of cash and securities made in respect of the Indemnification Collateral (which, for the avoidance of doubt shall include any interest earned on the funds in the deposit account and any dividends, interest, distributions, amounts received in respect of redemption and all other proceeds of any Permitted Investments earned or accrued after such time), including Pledge Collateral to the extent it relates to Pledged Units being applied to the payment of any Unpaid Obligation Amount) in an amount up to the Unpaid Obligation Amount and Secured Party may apply any cash received from Securities Intermediary to the payment of the Obligations then due to Secured Party but unpaid, and (ii) sell the Indemnification Collateral in an amount up to the Unpaid Obligation Amount or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any exchange, broker’s board or at any of Secured Party’s or Securities Intermediary’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, and upon such other terms as Secured Party may deem commercially reasonable, and Secured Party may instruct Pledge Collateral Agent, as secured party for the benefit of Secured Party (for its own benefit and the benefit of the other Acquiror Indemnified Parties), to take such action with respect to the Pledge Collateral (subject to the last sentence of Section 2.2), including, without limitation, the transfer at the time specified by Secured Party of any such Pledge Collateral out of any Pledged Unit Subaccount to the appropriate other subaccount under the Pledge Agreement, as may be necessary or desirable to effectuate the transfer or sale of Indemnification Collateral described above; provided, that the aggregate value (calculated as provided in the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement and herein) of the Indemnification Collateral, any such transferred Pledge Collateral and the proceeds of the disposition thereof

12


 

applied to the payment of the Obligations at any time shall not exceed the Unpaid Obligation Amount at such time, the amount of the Unpaid Obligations to be certified to Securities Intermediary and Pledge Collateral Agent; and provided, further, that Secured Party shall not exercise, or cause Pledge Collateral Agent to exercise, any rights with respect to the Pledge Collateral that would breach the covenant set forth in the last sentence of Section 2.2 or that would adversely affect the operation of the Pledge Agreement, any Stock Purchase Contract or the Stock Purchase Contract Agreement.
     Pledgor acknowledges that to the extent the Indemnification Collateral credited to the Indemnification Collateral Account or the Pledge Collateral credited to the Pledge Collateral Accounts under the Pledge Agreement is of a type sold in a recognized market, no notice by Secured Party or Pledge Collateral Agent to Pledgor shall be required prior to the sale of any Indemnification Collateral or Pledge Collateral hereunder. In the event such notice is given, neither Secured Party nor Pledge Collateral Agent shall be obligated to make any sale of Indemnification Collateral or Pledge Collateral regardless of such notice having been given. Secured Party or Pledge Collateral Agent, as the case may be, may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned. Upon any sale or transfer of any Common Equity Units contained in the Indemnification Collateral, whether upon Secured Party’s exercise of its rights as a secured party hereunder or upon the instructions of Pledgor in connection with a substitution of Indemnification Collateral, the Pledge Collateral associated with such Common Equity Units being sold shall, if such Common Equity Units shall continue to be outstanding after such sale or other transfer, be transferred from the Pledge Collateral Accounts to the other appropriate subaccounts with the Collateral Agent under the Pledge Agreement.
     SECTION 2.10 Security Interest Absolute. All rights of Secured Party and Pledge Collateral Agent for benefit of the Secured Party and the security interests granted hereunder, and all obligations of Pledgor hereunder, shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of: (i) any change in time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to any departure from the Indemnification Provisions; (ii) any exchange, release or non-perfection of any other collateral, or any release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from any guaranty, for all or any of the Obligations; or (iii) any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, Pledgor in respect of the Obligations other than full and final payment thereof.
     SECTION 2.11 Further Assurances. Pledgor, Secured Party, Securities Intermediary and Pledge Collateral Agent agree that, at any time and from time to time at the expense of Pledgor, Pledgor shall promptly execute and deliver all further instruments and documents and take all further action that may be necessary or desirable or that Secured Party, Securities Intermediary or Pledge Collateral Agent (upon the instructions of Secured Party, in the case of Securities Intermediary or Pledge Collateral Agent) may reasonably request in order to create, perfect, and protect any pledge or security interest granted or purported to be granted hereby or to enable Secured Party to exercise and enforce its rights and remedies hereunder with respect to the Indemnification Collateral and to enable Pledge Collateral Agent to exercise and enforce for

13


 

the benefit of Secured Party its rights and remedies hereunder with respect to the Pledge Collateral. If Pledgor shall fail to execute such instruments or documents or to take such further action, Securities Intermediary or Pledge Collateral Agent, upon the instructions of Secured Party, may do so in Pledgor’s stead in their own names or as Pledgor’s attorneys-in-fact, and at Pledgor’s expense.

Where Indemnification Collateral or Pledge Collateral is held in a Depository, Securities Intermediary shall identify on its records as belonging to Pledgor and pledged to Secured Party or Pledge Collateral Agent for the benefit of Secured Party, as appropriate, a quantity of securities as part of a fungible bulk of securities held in Securities Intermediary’s account at such Depository. Securities deposited in a Depository will be represented in accounts which include only assets held by Securities Intermediary for its customers.
     SECTION 3.7 Merger, Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business. Any Person into which Pledge Collateral Agent or Securities Intermediary may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any Person resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which Pledge Collateral Agent or Securities Intermediary shall be a party, or any person succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of Pledge Collateral Agent or Securities Intermediary shall be the successor of Pledge Collateral Agent or Securities Intermediary, respectively, hereunder without the execution or filing of any paper with any party hereto or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto except where an instrument of transfer or assignment is required by law to effect such succession, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding; provided, however, that if Pledge Collateral Agent and Securities Intermediary are no longer the same corporate entity, such merger, conversion, consolidation or succession to business shall instead be treated as a simultaneous resignation of Pledge Collateral Agent and Securities Intermediary hereunder.

ARTICLE IV
Collateral Services
     SECTION 4.1 Delivery of Indemnification Collateral. At the Closing (as defined in the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement), Pledgor shall deliver or cause to be delivered in the method specified in Section 2.3 to Securities Intermediary the Initial Collateral for credit to and/or deposit in the Indemnification Collateral Account, and Pledge Collateral Agent shall establish the Pledge Collateral Accounts and credit the Pledge Collateral thereto as provided in the Pledge Agreement.
     SECTION 4.2 Release of Indemnification Collateral. At any time on or after each of the dates which is the 12-month, 24-month and 30-month anniversary of the Closing Date (or if, in each case, such date is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day), or as otherwise provided in Section 11.05(c) of the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement, Pledgor shall be entitled to withdraw Indemnification Collateral from the Indemnification Collateral Account to the extent and in the amount and manner set forth in such Section 11.05(c) (the amount permitted to be withdrawn being the “Excess Collateral Amount”); provided, however, any such withdrawal of Indemnification Collateral in accordance with Section 11.05(c) (other than Section 11.05(c)(i)) of the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement shall be made in the following order of priority: (i) first, releasing any Common Equity Units then held in the Indemnification Collateral Account; and (ii) second, solely to the extent the amount of Indemnification Collateral to be so released exceeds the stated amount of the Common Equity Units released pursuant to clause (i) above, any cash then held in the Indemnification Collateral Account and any Permitted Investments then held in the Indemnification Collateral Account in which cash held in the Indemnification Collateral Account has been invested; provided, further, that any such Permitted Investments shall have been liquidated in accordance with the guidelines specified in the Investment Guidelines prior to making any such withdrawal; provided, further, that Pledgor has delivered written notice to Secured Party, with a copy to Securities Intermediary, at least ten (10) Business Days in advance of the proposed date of withdrawal detailing the Indemnification Collateral proposed to be withdrawn and specifying the account or address to which the withdrawn Collateral should be delivered; provided, further, that Securities Intermediary has received a Written Instruction and/or entitlement order from Secured Party at least five (5) Business Days in advance of the requested withdrawal authorizing the withdrawal of such Excess Collateral Amount and specifying the particular Indemnification Collateral to be withdrawn; and provided, further, that upon the occurrence of a Parent Bankruptcy, no Indemnification Collateral shall be released hereunder pursuant to Sections 11.05(c) except to the extent, in the manner and at the time or times permitted thereby; provided, that in connection with each such withdrawal all of the conditions in this Section 4.2 have been complied with. Secured Party hereby agrees that it shall timely deliver an appropriate entitlement order to the Securities Intermediary adequate to permit a permitted transfer of any Excess Collateral Amount. If any Common Equity Units are withdrawn from the Indemnification Collateral Account, the

18


 

corresponding Pledge Collateral shall be transferred from the Pledge Unit Subaccounts to the appropriate other subaccounts under the Pledge Agreement. In order to facilitate the withdrawal hereunder of Indemnification Collateral and Pledge Collateral while such Collateral is evidenced by securities, the Secured Party shall provide the appropriate registrar for such Collateral a sufficient supply of securities for purposes of issuance and exchange and shall cause such registrars to coordinate and cooperate with the Securities Intermediary and Pledge Collateral Agent to effect such withdrawal. The Securities Intermediary and the Pledge Collateral Agent, as such, shall have no responsibility for any delay by any registrar to provide securities to effect any such withdrawal or the related issuance and exchange.
     If any Indemnification Collateral is required to remain in the Indemnification Collateral Account after the 30-month anniversary of the Closing Date, Pledgor similarly shall be entitled thereafter to withdraw any Excess Collateral Amount; provided, however, that Pledgor has delivered written notice to Secured Party and Securities Intermediary at least ten (10) Business Days in advance of the proposed date of withdrawal detailing the Indemnification Collateral proposed to be withdrawn and specifying the account or address to which the withdrawn Collateral should be delivered; and provided, further, that Securities Intermediary has received a Written Instruction and/or entitlement order from Secured Party at least five (5) Business Days in advance of the requested withdrawal authorizing the withdrawal of such Excess Collateral Amount. Secured Party hereby agrees that it will timely deliver an appropriate entitlement order to Securities Intermediary adequate to permit a permitted transfer of any Excess Collateral Amount. If any Common Equity Units are withdrawn from the Indemnification Collateral Account, the corresponding Pledge Collateral shall be transferred from the Pledge Collateral Accounts to the appropriate other Collateral Accounts under the Pledge Agreement.
     If Secured Party does not intend to deliver an instruction and/or entitlement order to Securities Intermediary authorizing a withdrawal under the circumstances described above, Secured Party shall deliver to Pledgor a notice providing detail of the defects in Pledgor’s withdrawal request not later than five (5) Business Days prior to the proposed date of withdrawal. Secured Party will give written notice to Securities Intermediary and Pledge Collateral Agent upon the satisfaction in full of the Obligations. If any Common Equity Units remain in the Indemnification Collateral Account upon such satisfaction in full (and provided such notice has been received by the Securities Intermediary and the Pledge Collateral Agent), such Common Equity Units will be transferred to Pledgor or upon its order and the corresponding Pledge Collateral shall be transferred from the Pledge Collateral Accounts to the other appropriate subaccounts under the Pledge Agreement.
     SECTION 4.3 Substitutions. Subject to the provisions of this Section 4.3, Pledgor may substitute cash for any Indemnification Collateral then held in the Indemnification Collateral Account. As a condition to effecting a substitution, at least ten (10) Business Days in advance of the proposed date of substitution, Pledgor shall be required to deliver written notice to Secured Party, with a copy to Securities Intermediary, specifying: (i) the proposed date of substitution, (ii) the amount of cash proposed to be transferred to the Indemnification Collateral Account and (iii) the Indemnification Collateral proposed to be withdrawn from the Indemnification Collateral Account. Pledgor shall be entitled to effect the proposed substitution; provided, that Securities Intermediary has received a Written Instruction and/or entitlement order from Secured

19


 

Party at least five (5) Business Days in advance of the requested withdrawal authorizing Securities Intermediary to effect the substitution and that, prior to such substitution, the Pledgor shall have delivered to the Secured Party a written opinion of outside counsel for the Pledgor, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Secured Party stating that (i) this Agreement is effective to create a security interest in the cash credited to the Deposit Account in favor of the Secured Party; (ii) by virtue of this Agreement, the Secured Party’s security interest in the cash credited to the Deposit Account has been perfected; and (iii) no adverse claim under Article 8 of the UCC may be asserted against the Secured Party’s security interest in any financial asset credited to Eligible Collateral credited to the Indemnification Collateral Account. Securities Intermediary shall be entitled to conclusively assume that such opinion has been delivered unless Secured Party gives it written notice to the contrary.
     Secured Party hereby agrees that it will timely deliver an appropriate entitlement order to the Securities Intermediary adequate to permit a permitted substitution of Indemnification Collateral; provided, however, that it shall not be required to deliver such an instruction and/or entitlement order unless the amount of cash proposed to be transferred to the Indemnification Collateral Account is at least equal to the Fair Value of the Indemnification Collateral proposed to be withdrawn from the Indemnification Collateral Account. If Secured Party does not intend to deliver an instruction and/or entitlement order to Securities Intermediary authorizing a substitution of Indemnification Collateral under the circumstances described above Secured Party shall deliver to Pledgor a notice, not later than five (5) Business Days prior to the proposed date of withdrawal, providing details of the shortfall in the amount of cash to be transferred as compared to the Fair Value of the Indemnification Collateral proposed to be withdrawn.
     If any substitution involves the withdrawal of Common Equity Units from the Indemnification Collateral Account, the Pledge Collateral corresponding to such Common Equity Units shall be transferred from the Pledge Collateral Accounts to the other appropriate subaccounts under the Pledge Agreement. Substitutions of Pledge Collateral pursuant to the terms of Sections 5.1(c), 5.2 and 5.3 of the Pledge Agreement shall be effected in accordance with such terms and Section 4.4(a) hereof.
     Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i), solely in connection with the AIG Equity Unit Public Offering, all or a portion of the Equity Units Net Proceeds will be directly deposited by the Managing Underwriter in accordance with the Indemnification Instruction, Waiver and Acknowledgment by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Indemnification Collateral Account as Eligible Collateral and substituted for Indemnification Collateral then held in the Indemnification Collateral Account in accordance with the Indemnification Instruction, Waiver and Acknowledgment contemplated by Section 6.6(b) of the Coordination Agreement, and (ii) Pledgor will be permitted to substitute any proceeds of a sale or transfer of Common Equity Units permitted under the Amended Investor Rights Agreement following reasonable notice to Secured Party with a copy to Securities Intermediary, and Secured Party hereby agrees that it will timely deliver an appropriate securities entitlement order to Securities Intermediary adequate to permit such substitution of Indemnification Collateral in the case of clause (ii).
     SECTION 4.4 Common Equity Units as Collateral.

20


 

     (a) Collateral Substitutions. If Pledgor effects a Collateral Substitution (as such term is defined in the Stock Purchase Contract Agreement) with respect to any Stock Purchase Contracts forming part of Common Equity Units credited to the Indemnification Collateral Account by exercising its right to do so under the Stock Purchase Contract Agreement, the Stock Purchase Contracts and the Pledge Agreement, the Normal Common Equity Units or Stripped Common Equity Units (as such terms are defined in the Stock Purchase Contract Agreement) created pursuant to such Collateral Substitution, but not the Debt Securities or Treasury Securities (as such terms are defined in the Stock Purchase Contact Agreement) released from the security interest created pursuant to the Pledge Agreement, shall, unless otherwise agreed by Secured Party, be credited to the Indemnification Collateral Account as additional Indemnification Collateral, and the Debt Securities or Treasury Securities released from the security interest created pursuant to the Pledge Agreement shall be released from the security interest created pursuant to this Agreement and delivered to the Pledgor. Secured Party shall be entitled to retain the Normal Common Equity Units or Stripped Common Equity Units created pursuant to such Collateral Substitution without there being any reduction in the Obligations as a result of such retention.
     (b) Cash Settlement. If Pledgor effects an Early Settlement, Cash Settlement or Cash Merger Early Settlement (as such terms are defined in the Stock Purchase Contract Agreement) other than as described in Section 4.4(d) below of any Stock Purchase Contracts forming part of Common Equity Units credited to the Indemnification Collateral Account for cash by exercising its right to do so under the Stock Purchase Contract Agreement, the Stock Purchase Contracts and the Pledge Agreement, or duly elects not to exercise its Put Right upon a Final Failed Remarketing (as such terms are defined in the Stock Purchase Contract Agreement and Pledge Agreement, respectively), the Common Stock so acquired, but not the cash paid therefor, shall, unless otherwise agreed by Secured Party, be credited to the Indemnification Collateral Account as additional Indemnification Collateral. Secured Party shall be entitled to retain the cash paid as the purchase price for such Common Stock without there being any reduction in the Obligations as a result of such retention. The Debt Securities or Treasury Securities in the Pledge Collateral Accounts relating to the Stock Purchase Contracts pursuant to which such cash purchase was made shall be released from the Pledge Collateral Accounts to Pledgor upon such purchase pursuant to the terms of the Pledge Agreement.
     (c) Remarketing. If Pledgor purchases Common Stock with the cash proceeds of any remarketing, in accordance with the terms of the Stock Purchase Contract Agreement, the Stock Purchase Contracts and the Pledge Agreement, of Debt Securities forming part of the Common Equity Units credited to the Indemnification Collateral Account, the Common Stock so acquired, but not the cash received therefore, shall, unless otherwise agreed by Secured Party, be credited to the Indemnification Collateral Account as additional Indemnification Collateral. Secured Party shall be entitled to retain cash proceeds as the purchase price for such Common Stock without there being any reduction in the Obligations as a result of such retention. The Debt Securities sold in such remarketing that were credited to the Pledge Collateral Accounts shall be released from the Pledge Collateral Accounts pursuant to the terms of the Pledge Agreement.
     If Pledgor purchases Common Stock pursuant to Stock Purchase Contracts relating to any Common Equity Units credited to the Indemnification Collateral Account in consideration for

21


 

the cash proceeds of Treasury Securities, the Common Stock so acquired shall, unless otherwise agreed by Secured Party, be credited to the Indemnification Collateral Account as additional Indemnification Collateral. Secured Party shall be entitled to retain such consideration as the purchase price for such Common Stock without there being any reduction in the Obligations as a result of such retention.
     (d) Put Right; Settlement in Kind. If Pledgor purchases Common Stock pursuant to Stock Purchase Contracts relating to any Common Equity Units credited to the Indemnification Collateral Account in consideration for any Debt Securities pursuant to its deemed exercise of the Put Right or in connection with a Cash Merger Early Settlement (each as defined in the Stock Purchase Contract Agreement), the Common Stock so acquired, but not such Debt Securities, shall, unless otherwise agreed by Secured Party, be credited to the Indemnification Collateral Account as additional Indemnification Collateral. Secured Party shall be entitled to retain such consideration as the purchase price for such Common Stock without there being any reduction in the Obligations as a result of such retention, and such Debt Securities or Treasury Securities shall be released from the Pledge Collateral Accounts pursuant to the Pledge Agreement.
     (e) Termination Events. If, pursuant to Stock Purchase Contracts relating to any Common Equity Units credited to the Indemnification Collateral Account, Pledgor takes Debt Securities or Treasury Securities free and clear of the lien of the Pledge Agreement rather than Common Stock as a result of a Termination Event (as defined in the Stock Purchase Contract Agreement), such Debt Securities or Treasury Securities so acquired, shall, unless otherwise agreed by Secured Party, be credited to the Indemnification Collateral Account as additional Indemnification Collateral and shall be released from the Pledge Collateral Accounts pursuant to the Pledge Agreement.
     (f) Cooperation. So long as no default has occurred and is continuing, upon request of Pledgor to exercise any of its rights with respect to Common Equity Units credited to the Indemnification Collateral Account as set forth in Sections 4.4(a) through (d) above, Secured Party and Securities Intermediary shall cooperate with Pledgor, including by delivering any appropriate instruction or notice required pursuant to the terms of the Stock Purchase Contract Agreement and Pledge Agreement, to effect the exercise of such rights.
     SECTION 4.5 Treatment of Proceeds. Except as set forth in Sections 2.9 and 4.4 hereof, all dividends, interest, distributions and all other interest or other earnings (which for the avoidance of doubt shall include any interest earned on the funds in the deposit account and any earnings on any Permitted Investments) of the Indemnification Collateral shall be released from the security interest created pursuant to this Agreement and Securities Intermediary shall promptly upon receipt thereof (i) credit to the Collateral Agent for distribution to the Pledgor as provided in the Pledge Agreement all such proceeds relating to the Pledge Collateral and (ii) deliver to Pledgor all such proceeds not relating to the Pledge Collateral.
     SECTION 4.6 Exclusive Control. Securities Intermediary is authorized to act upon any Written Instructions, including entitlement orders with respect to the securities account that is part of the Indemnification Collateral Account and instructions relating to the deposit account that is part of the Indemnification Collateral Account, solely and exclusively from Secured Party.

22


 

Securities Intermediary is authorized to act upon any Written Instructions, including entitlement orders with respect to the Pledge Collateral Accounts, solely and exclusively from Pledge Collateral Agent. Secured Party hereby covenants for the benefit of Pledgor that Secured Party will not originate entitlement orders or instructions concerning the Indemnification Collateral Account or the Indemnification Collateral or cause Pledge Collateral Agent to take any action with respect to the Pledge Collateral or the Pledge Collateral Accounts except as provided in Sections 2.9, 4.2, 4.3 and 4.4 hereof with respect to payment of Obligations when due, the substitution, withdrawal, release or transfer of Indemnification Collateral or Pledge Collateral, the treatment of proceeds and the exercise its rights as a secured party upon default. The foregoing covenant is for the benefit of Pledgor only and will not be deemed to constitute a limitation on Secured Party’s right, as between Securities Intermediary and Secured Party, to originate entitlement orders and instructions with respect to the Indemnification Collateral Account and the Indemnification Collateral, on Securities Intermediary’s obligation to comply with those entitlement orders and instructions without further consent by Pledgor, on Secured Party’s right, as between Secured Party and Pledge Collateral Agent, to instruct Pledge Collateral Agent to take action with respect to the Pledge Collateral or the Pledge Collateral Accounts, or on Pledge Collateral Agent’s obligation to comply with those instructions without further consent by Pledgor. Securities Intermediary agrees that it will, without inquiry or consent of Pledgor or any person acting or purporting to act on behalf of Pledgor, comply with Written Instructions (including entitlement orders and instructions relating to the deposit account that is part of the Indemnification Collateral Account) from Secured Party with respect to the Indemnification Collateral Account. Without prejudice to the exclusive right of Secured Party to give entitlement orders, if Securities Intermediary receives conflicting directions with respect to the Indemnification Collateral Account or the Indemnification Collateral from Pledgor and Secured Party, Securities Intermediary will act at the direction of Secured Party and will be fully protected in so acting. Pledge Collateral Agent agrees to comply with instructions given pursuant to the Pledge Agreement and with instructions given by Secured Party pursuant to this Agreement without further consent from Pledgor. If instructions of Secured Party to Pledge Collateral Agent pursuant to this Agreement conflict with the obligations of the Pledge Collateral Agent under the Pledge Agreement, Pledge Collateral Agent shall be entitled to comply with the Pledge Agreement and not to comply with such conflicting instructions given pursuant to this Agreement.
     SECTION 4.7 Statements. Securities Intermediary shall furnish Pledgor and Secured Party with monthly Indemnification Collateral Account statements in accordance with its customary procedures. Securities Intermediary shall also furnish Pledgor and Secured Party with monthly statements with respect to the Pledge Collateral Accounts in accordance with its customary procedures. The requirements of this Section 4.7 shall be performed by the Securities Intermediary by granting each of the Pledgor and the Secured Party on-line read only access to the Indemnification Collateral Account and the Pledge Collateral Accounts.
     SECTION 4.8 Notice of Adverse Claims. Upon receipt of written notice of any lien, encumbrance or adverse claim against the Indemnification Collateral Account, the Pledge Collateral Accounts or any portion of the Indemnification Collateral or Pledge Collateral, Securities Intermediary shall use reasonable efforts to notify Secured Party and Pledgor as promptly as practicable under the circumstances.

23


 

     SECTION 4.9 Subordination of Lien; Set-off. The parties agree that any security interest in or lien on, or right of set-off with respect to, any of the Indemnification Collateral or the Pledge Collateral that Securities Intermediary or Pledge Collateral Agent may now or in the future may have is hereby subordinated to the security interest of Secured Party hereunder, except to the extent of any fees, charges, expenses and other amounts owed to Securities Intermediary or Pledge Collateral Agent and incurred in connection with the performance of the duties of Securities Intermediary hereunder and the maintenance and operation of the Indemnification Collateral Account and the Indemnification Collateral, for which Securities Intermediary shall have a prior claim to the Indemnification Collateral.
     SECTION 4.10 No Release Without Consent. Securities Intermediary and Pledge Collateral Agent agree that they will not extend any credit nor make any loans secured by the Indemnification Collateral, the Indemnification Collateral Account, the Pledge Collateral or the Pledge Collateral Accounts, including without limitation any so-called “margin loans.” Except as provided in Sections 2.9, 4.2, 4.3, 4.4 and 4.5 hereof or in the Pledge Agreement, no payments of principal or interest, or addition, substitution, sale, transfer, release, withdrawal or other alienation of Indemnification Collateral or the Pledge Collateral shall be made except upon the written consent of Secured Party.

The obligations of AIG under this Section shall be a continuing obligation of AIG, its successors and assigns, notwithstanding the resignation or removal of Securities Intermediary or Pledge Collateral Agent or the termination of this Agreement.
     SECTION 5.8 Effectiveness of Instructions; Reliance; Risk Acknowledgements; Additional Terms.

Intermediary or Pledge Collateral Agent, respectively, and reasonably believed by it to have been duly authorized and delivered by Secured Party.
     (b) In each case that Securities Intermediary or Pledge Collateral Agent may or is required hereunder to take any action, including without limitation to make any determination or judgment, to give consents, to exercise rights, powers or remedies, to release or sell Indemnification Collateral or Pledge Collateral or otherwise to act hereunder, the Securities Intermediary or Pledge Collateral Agent may seek direction from Secured Party. Securities Intermediary or Pledge Collateral Agent shall not be liable with respect to any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the direction from Secured Party. Unless direction is otherwise expressly provided herein, if Securities Intermediary or Pledge Collateral Agent shall request direction from Secured Party with respect to any action, Securities Intermediary or Pledge Collateral Agent shall be entitled to refrain from such action unless and until such agent shall have received direction from Securities Intermediary or Pledge Collateral Agent, and the agent shall not incur liability to any Person by reason of so refraining.

     (d) Secured Party acknowledges and agrees that it is fully informed of the protections and risks associated with the various methods of transmitting Written Instructions to Securities Intermediary and Pledge Collateral Agent and that there may be more secure methods of transmitting Written Instructions than the method(s) selected by it. Secured Party agrees that the security procedures (if any) to be followed in connection with its transmission of Written Instructions provide to it a commercially reasonable degree of protection in light of its particular needs and circumstances.
     SECTION 5.9 Certain Rights.
     (a) Whenever in the administration of the provisions of this Agreement Securities Intermediary and Pledge Collateral Agent shall deem it necessary or desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking or suffering any action to be taken hereunder, such matter (unless other evidence in respect thereof be herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of gross negligence or bad faith on the part of Securities Intermediary and Pledge Collateral Agent, be deemed to be conclusively proved and established by a certificate signed by one of the

27


 

Secured Party’s officers, and delivered to Securities Intermediary and Pledge Collateral Agent and such certificate, in the absence of gross negligence or bad faith on the part of the Securities Intermediary and Pledge Collateral Agent, shall be full warrant to the Securities Intermediary and Pledge Collateral Agent for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it under the provisions of this Agreement upon the faith thereof.
     (b) The Securities Intermediary and Pledge Collateral Agent shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, entitlement order, approval or other paper or document, may conclusively rely and shall be fully protected in acting or refraining from acting thereon if believed to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties and may conclusively rely on the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein.
     (c) Neither Securities Intermediary nor Pledge Collateral Agent shall have any responsibility, other than complying with the express terms and provisions of this Agreement, for perfecting or maintaining the perfection of any security interest granted to it or to the Secured Party hereunder or for filing or re-filing any financing statement or continuation statement in any public office at any time or times.

The persons and telephone numbers for call-backs may be changed only in writing actually received and acknowledged by Securities Intermediary and Pledge Collateral Agent. The parties to this Agreement acknowledge that such security procedure is commercially reasonable.
     (e) [The Securities Intermediary shall have no obligation to invest and reinvest any cash held in the Indemnification Collateral Account in the absence of a written investment direction from Pledgor specifying the investment to be made and certifying that such investment constitutes a Permitted Investment.

     SECTION 5.11 Force Majeure. Neither Securities Intermediary nor Pledge Collateral Agent shall be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations under this Agreement arising out of or caused, directly or indirectly, by circumstances beyond its reasonable control, including without limitation, acts of God; earthquakes; fires; floods; wars; civil or military disturbances; sabotage; epidemics; riots; interruptions, loss or malfunctions of utilities, computer (hardware or software) or communications service; accidents; labor disputes; acts of civil or military authority; governmental actions; inability to obtain labor, material, equipment or transportation.

Upon any such resignation or removal, Secured Party shall have the right to appoint a successor Pledge Collateral Agent or Securities Intermediary, as the case may be, provided, such appointment of the Pledge Collateral Agent also complies with the Pledge Agreement. If no successor Pledge Collateral Agent or Securities Intermediary shall have been so appointed and shall have accepted such appointment

29


 

within thirty (30) days after the retiring Pledge Collateral Agent’s or Securities Intermediary’s giving of notice of resignation or Secured Party’s giving notice of such removal, then the retiring or removed Pledge Collateral Agent or Securities Intermediary may petition any court of competent jurisdiction, at the expense of Secured Party, for the appointment of a successor Pledge Collateral Agent or Securities Intermediary. Pledge Collateral Agent and Securities Intermediary shall each be a bank, trust company or national banking association with a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000.

The retiring Pledge Collateral Agent or Securities Intermediary shall, upon such succession, be discharged from its duties and obligations as Pledge Collateral Agent or Securities Intermediary hereunder. After any retiring Pledge Collateral Agent’s or Securities Intermediary’s resignation hereunder as Pledge Collateral Agent or Securities Intermediary, the provisions of Article V shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as the Pledge Collateral Agent or Securities Intermediary. Any resignation or removal of Pledge Collateral Agent or Securities Intermediary hereunder, at a time when such person is acting as Pledge Collateral Agent or Securities Intermediary, shall be deemed for all purposes of this Agreement as the simultaneous resignation or removal of Pledge Collateral Agent and Securities Intermediary.
     SECTION 6.2 Termination. This Agreement shall terminate upon (a) the receipt by Security Intermediary and Pledge Collateral Agent of Written Instructions from Secured Party expressly stating that Secured Party no longer claims any security interest in either the Indemnification Collateral or the Pledge Collateral, the subsequent transfer of the Indemnification Collateral from the Indemnification Collateral Account pursuant to Section 4.2 and the corresponding transfers of the Pledge Collateral under the Pledge Agreement, or (b) the transfer of all of the Indemnification Collateral and Pledge Collateral to Secured Party pursuant to an entitlement order delivered to Securities Intermediary and an instruction delivered to Pledge Collateral Agent. Except as otherwise provided herein, all obligations of the parties to each other hereunder shall cease upon termination of this Agreement.

Secured Party and Pledgor agree to furnish to Securities Intermediary and Pledge Collateral Agent a new Certificate of Authorized Persons in the event of any change in the then present Authorized Persons.

Exhibit D
Section 11.05 of the Seller Disclosure Letter
Section 11.05
Payment
(e) Equity Units Valuation Methodology
The valuation agent will value the Equity Units based on the sum of the valuations of the three tranches of the Equity Units. If any of the stock purchase contracts have been settled for MetLife common stock on or prior to the valuation date, the MetLife common stock issued thereunder will be valued based on the market price of MetLife common stock. The valuation agent will value the Equity Units as if the securities were fully-distributed in a liquid trading market with no additional discounts applied (whether for “new issue”, transfer or hedging restrictions, or due to the fact that the security is held by one party).
Each of the three tranches will be valued based on the sum of:
  1)   the market price of 28,232,000 shares of MetLife common stock (number of shares subject to anti-dilution adjustments);
 
  2)  
plus the present value of All-in Payments on the applicable tranche of the Equity Units using the Applicable Discount Rate;
 
  3)  
minus the present value of Foregone MetLife Dividends on the applicable tranche of the Equity Units using the Applicable Discount Rate;
 
  4)  
less the value of 28,232,000 call options with an exercise price of $35.42 each (number of call options and strike price subject to anti-dilution adjustments) expiring on the applicable Stock Purchase Date;
 
  5)  
plus the value of 22,588,000 call options with an exercise price of $44.275 each (number of call options and strike price subject to anti-dilution adjustments) expiring on the applicable Stock Purchase Date.
For any tranche of the Equity Units, should a failed remarketing lead to an extension of the applicable Stock Purchase Date, subsequent to the first scheduled applicable Stock Purchase Date, the valuation for such tranche will be based on the sum of (1), (2), and (3)

D-1


 

above, adjusting (1) for the number of shares of MetLife common stock issuable on the next succeeding applicable Stock Purchase Date (subject to anti-dilution adjustments).
The market price with respect to shares of MetLife common stock on the valuation date means the closing price per share for MetLife common stock ending on such day, or, if no closing price is available for such day, the closing price for the last preceding trading day.
For any applicable tranche of the Equity Units, the All-in Payments means the sum of any interest payable on the underlying senior unsecured note and any contract adjustment payments payable on the applicable stock purchase contract through the applicable stock purchase date.
For any applicable tranche of the Equity Units, the Foregone MetLife Dividends means, for any dividend record date below prior to the applicable Stock Purchase Date, the product of (i) $0.74 and (ii) 28,232,000. The dividend record dates to consider are:
    November 9, 2010
 
    November 9, 2011
 
    November 9, 2012
 
    November 9, 2013
 
    November 9, 2014
For purposes of this valuation, the applicable Stock Purchase Date means, for any tranche of the Equity Units, the next scheduled stock purchase settlement date (as defined in the Agreement), assuming the next succeeding remarketing is successful.
For any applicable tranche of the Equity Units, the Applicable Discount Rate shall be calculated as the sum, on the valuation date, of:
    the yield to maturity on the U.S. Treasury security maturing closest to the applicable Stock Purchase Date;
 
   
plus the yield to maturity on MetLife’s 6.75% notes due 2016 (cusip no. 043194135) minus the yield to maturity on the U.S. Treasury note security maturing closest to MetLife’s 6.75% notes due 2016.
The value of the call options will be determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing formula for European call options.
This Black-Scholes option pricing formula is a function of:

D-2


 

    the market price of MetLife’s stock price;
 
    the “risk-free rate,” defined as the yield to maturity on the U.S. Treasury security maturing closest to the applicable Stock Purchase Date;
 
    the volatility of MetLife common stock;
 
    time, calculated as the time from the valuation date to the applicable Stock Purchase Date (the “applicable Tenor”);
 
    MetLife’s dividend yield, calculated as the dividend threshold amount ($0.74), divided by the market price of MetLife common stock; and
 
    the exercise price.
The volatility of MetLife common stock for the call option with an exercise price of $35.42 (subject to anti-dilution adjustments) will be calculated as the annualized standard deviation of the logarithmic daily returns on MetLife common stock over the 100 consecutive trading day period ending on the valuation date plus the applicable Volatility Skew.
The volatility of MetLife common stock for the call option with an exercise price of $44.275 (subject to anti-dilution adjustments) will be calculated as the annualized standard deviation of the logarithmic daily returns on MetLife common stock over the 100 consecutive trading day period ending on the valuation date minus the applicable Volatility Skew.
    The applicable Volatility Skew shall be 4.5%
Acquiror Interim Preferred Stock Valuation Methodology
At any time prior to the listing of the Acquiror Interim Preferred Stock, the fair market value of each share of Interim Preferred Stock shall be equal to the product of (x) a share of Acquiror Stock valued consistent with section 11.05 (e)(i)(z) and (y) 10. At any time after the Acquiror Interim Preferred Stock is registered and listed for trading on a national securities exchange, the fair market value of each share of Acquiror Interim Preferred Stock shall be equal to the volume weighted average price of a share of Acquiror Interim Preferred Stock on such exchange over the ten trading days ending on the second trading day prior to the date of the determination.
