Incorporated as the several Underwriters and any certificate delivered pursuant thereto by Counterparty shall be true and correct on the Effective Date as if made as of the Effective Date;

If delivery and payment for the Underwritten Securities (as such term is defined in the Underwriting Agreement) shall not have occurred by the Closing Date (as such term is defined in the Underwriting Agreement), the parties shall have no further obligations in connection with the Transaction, other than in respect of breaches of representations or covenants on or prior to such date. If, for any reason, the prospectus contemplated by the Underwriting Agreement ceases to be current and available for use prior to the completion by Bank, its affiliates or the other underwriters of the sale of the Number of Shares, Bank may reduce the Number of Shares hereunder to the number of Shares sold prior to such time.

          (b) Underwriting Agreement Representations, Warranties and Covenants. On the Trade Date, the Effective Date and on each date on which Bank, its affiliates or the other underwriters delivers a prospectus in connection with a sale to hedge the Transaction, Counterparty hereby makes to Bank as of such date all of the representations and warranties contained in the Underwriting Agreement. Counterparty hereby agrees to comply with its covenants contained in the Underwriting Agreement as if such covenants were made in favor of Bank.

          (c) Interpretive Letter. Counterparty agrees and acknowledges that the Transaction is being entered into in accordance with the October 9, 2003 interpretive letter from the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission to Goldman, Sachs & Co. (the “Interpretive Letter”) and agrees that, with respect to the foregoing, Counterparty has filed a registration statement on Form S-3 with respect to the “maximum number of shares” (as such term is described in the Interpretive Letter) and appropriate undertakings under Rule 415 under the Securities Act, including, but not limited to, Rule 415(a)(4).

          (d) Agreements and Acknowledgments of Counterparty Regarding Shares.

     (i) Counterparty agrees and acknowledges that, in respect of any Shares delivered to Bank hereunder, such Shares shall be, upon such delivery, duly and validly authorized, issued and outstanding, fully paid and nonassessable, free of any lien, charge, claim, any preemptive or similar rights or other encumbrance and shall, upon such issuance, be accepted for listing or quotation on the Exchange;

     (ii) Counterparty agrees and acknowledges that Bank will hedge its exposure to the Transaction by selling Shares borrowed from third party securities lenders or other Shares pursuant to a registration statement, and that, pursuant to the terms of the Interpretive Letter, the Shares (up to the Number of Shares) delivered, pledged or loaned by Counterparty to Bank in connection with the Transaction may be used by Bank to return to securities lenders without further registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Accordingly, Counterparty agrees that the Shares that it delivers, pledges or loans to Bank on or prior to the Settlement Date or Cash Settlement Payment Date will not bear a restrictive legend and that such Shares will be deposited in, and the delivery thereof shall be effected through the facilities of, the Clearance System; and

     (iii) Counterparty agrees not to take any action to reduce or decrease the number of authorized and unissued Shares below the sum of the Number of Shares plus the total number of Shares issuable upon settlement (whether by net share settlement or otherwise) of any other transaction or agreement to which it is a party.

          (e) Private Placement Procedures. If Counterparty is unable to comply with the provisions of sub-paragraph (ii) of “Agreements and Acknowledgments of Counterparty Regarding Shares” above because of a change in law or a change in interpretation or the policy of the Securities and Exchange Commission or its staff, or Bank otherwise determines that in its reasonable opinion any Shares to be delivered to Bank by Counterparty may not be freely returned by Bank to securities lenders as described under such sub-paragraph (ii), then delivery of any such Shares (the “Restricted Shares”) shall be effected pursuant to clause (i) below.

     (i) Delivery of Restricted Shares by Counterparty to Bank (a “Private Placement Settlement”) shall be effected in accordance with customary private placement procedures with respect to such Restricted Shares reasonably acceptable to Bank. On the date of such delivery, Counterparty shall not have taken, or caused to be taken, any action that would make unavailable either (x) the exemption pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act for the sale or deemed sale by Counterparty to Bank (or any affiliate designated by Bank) of the Restricted Shares or (y) the exemption pursuant to Section 4(1) or Section 4(3) of the Securities Act for resales of the Restricted Shares by Bank (or any such affiliate of Bank). The Private Placement Settlement of such Restricted Shares shall include customary representations, covenants, blue sky and other governmental filings and/or registrations, indemnities to Bank, due diligence rights (for Bank or any designated buyer of the Restricted Shares by Bank), opinions and certificates, and such other documentation as is customary for private placement agreements, all reasonably acceptable to Bank. In the case of a Private Placement Settlement, Bank shall, in its good faith discretion, adjust the number of Restricted Shares to be delivered to Bank hereunder in a commercially reasonable manner to reflect the fact that such Restricted Shares may not be freely returned to securities lenders by Bank and may only be saleable by Bank at a discount to reflect the lack of liquidity in Restricted Shares. Notwithstanding the ISDA Agreement or this Confirmation, the date of delivery of such Restricted Shares shall be the Clearance System Business Day following notice by Bank to Counterparty of the number of Restricted Shares to be delivered pursuant to this clause (i). For the avoidance of doubt, delivery of Restricted Shares shall be due as set forth in the previous sentence and not be due on the date that would otherwise be applicable.

     (ii) If Counterparty delivers any Restricted Shares in respect of the Transaction, Counterparty agrees that (A) such Shares may be transferred freely among Bank and its affiliates and (B) after the minimum “holding period” within the meaning of Rule 144(d) under the Securities Act has elapsed, Counterparty shall promptly remove, or cause the transfer agent for the Shares to remove, any legends referring to any transfer restrictions from such Shares upon delivery by Bank (or such affiliate of Bank) to Counterparty or such transfer agent of seller’s and broker’s representation letters customarily delivered by Bank or its affiliates in connection with resales of restricted securities pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act, each without any further requirement for the delivery of any certificate, consent, agreement, opinion of counsel, notice or any other document, any transfer tax stamps or payment of any other amount or any other action by Bank (or such affiliate of Bank).

          (f) Indemnity. Counterparty agrees to indemnify Bank and its affiliates and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents and controlling persons (Bank and each such affiliate or person being an “Indemnified Party”) from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities, joint and several, incurred by or asserted against such Indemnified Party arising out of, in connection with, or relating to, the execution or delivery of this Confirmation, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations under the Transaction, any breach of any covenant or representation made by Counterparty in this Confirmation or the ISDA Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and will reimburse any Indemnified Party for all reasonable expenses (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) as they are incurred in connection with the investigation of, preparation

for, or defense of any pending or threatened claim or any action or proceeding arising therefrom, whether or not such Indemnified Party is a party thereto. Counterparty will not be liable under this Indemnity sub-paragraph to the extent that any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense is found in a final and nonappealable judgment by a court to have resulted from Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

Upon Notice of Termination Delivery, the party with the Payment Obligation shall deliver to the other party a number of Termination Delivery Units having a cash value equal to the amount of such Payment Obligation (such number of Termination Delivery Units to be delivered to be determined by the Calculation Agent acting in a commercially reasonable manner). Settlement relating to any delivery of Termination Delivery Units pursuant to this provision shall occur within three Scheduled Trading Days if Counterparty has the Payment Obligation and within a reasonable period of time if Bank has the Payment Obligation.

“Termination Delivery Unit” means (A) in the case of a Termination Event, an Event of Default or an Extraordinary Event (other than an Insolvency, Nationalization, Merger Event or Tender Offer), one Share or (B) in the case of an Insolvency, Nationalization, Merger Event or Tender Offer, a unit consisting of the number or amount of each type of property received by a holder of one Share (without consideration of any requirement to pay cash or other consideration in lieu of fractional amounts of any securities) in such Insolvency, Nationalization, Merger Event or Tender Offer. If a Termination Delivery Unit consists of property other than cash or New Shares and Counterparty provides irrevocable written notice to the Calculation Agent on or prior to the Closing Date that it elects to deliver (or, as applicable, have Bank deliver) cash, New Shares or a combination thereof (in such proportion as Counterparty designates) in lieu of such other property, the Calculation Agent will replace such property with cash, New Shares or a combination thereof as components of a Termination Delivery Unit in such amounts, as determined by the Calculation Agent in its discretion by commercially reasonable means, as shall have a value equal to the value of the property so replaced. If such Insolvency, Nationalization,

Merger Event or Tender Offer involves a choice of consideration to be received by holders, such holder shall be deemed to have elected to receive the maximum possible amount of cash.

          (c) Set-Off and Netting. Bank agrees not to set-off or net amounts due from Counterparty with respect to the Transaction against amounts due from Bank to Counterparty under any other obligations whether by operation of law or otherwise. Section 2(c) of the ISDA Agreement as it applies to payments due with respect to the Transaction shall remain in effect and is not subject to the first sentence of this provision.

          (d) Maximum Share Delivery. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Confirmation, in no event will Counterparty be required to deliver hereunder, whether pursuant to Physical Settlement, Net Share Settlement, Private Placement Settlement or otherwise, more than 4,750,000 Shares to Bank in the aggregate.

          (e) Status of Claims in Bankruptcy. Bank acknowledges and agrees that this Confirmation is not intended to convey to Bank rights with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby that are senior to the claims of common stockholders in any U.S. bankruptcy proceedings of Counterparty; provided, however, that nothing herein shall limit or shall be deemed to limit Bank’s right to pursue remedies in the event of a breach by Counterparty of its obligations and agreements with respect to this Confirmation and the ISDA Agreement; and, provided, further, that nothing herein shall limit or shall be deemed to limit Bank’s rights in respect of any transaction other than the Transaction.

          (f) No Collateral. Notwithstanding any provision of this Confirmation or the ISDA Agreement, or any other agreement between the parties, to the contrary, the obligations of Counterparty under the Transaction is not secured by any collateral. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if the ISDA Agreement or any other agreement between the parties includes an ISDA Credit Support Annex or other agreement pursuant to which Counterparty collateralizes obligations to Bank, then the obligations of Counterparty hereunder will not be considered to be obligations under such Credit Support Annex or other agreement pursuant to which Counterparty collateralizes obligations to Bank, and the Transaction shall be disregarded for purposes of calculating any Exposure or similar term thereunder.

          (g) Additional Termination Event. The occurrence of an Increased Dividend Event (as defined below) or an Extraordinary Dividend will constitute an Additional Termination Event under Section 5(b)(v) of the ISDA Agreement, with the Transaction as the sole Affected Transaction and Counterparty as the sole Affected Party. An “Increased Dividend Event” shall occur if 100% of the aggregate gross cash dividends per Share (including any cash Extraordinary Dividends) declared by the Issuer at any time during the period from and including the Trade Date to but excluding the final Cash Settlement Payment Date or Settlement Date, as applicable, exceeds USD 0.04 per Share per calendar quarter.

          For purposes of this Confirmation, “Extraordinary Dividend” means the per Share amount of any cash dividend or distribution declared by the Seller with respect to the Shares that is specified by the board of directors of the Seller as an “extraordinary” dividend.

          (h) Transfer. Bank has the right to assign any or all of its rights and obligations under the Transaction to deliver or accept delivery of Shares to any of its affiliates; provided that such assignment shall only occur in respect of the Transaction when it has become obligatory that the Transaction be settled by the transfer of Shares; and provided, further, that Counterparty shall have recourse to Bank in the event of failure by the assignee to perform any of such obligations hereunder and provided, further, that such assignment does not result in any negative tax or accounting consequences

for, or additional payments by, Counterparty. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the recourse to Bank shall be limited to recoupment of Counterparty’s monetary damages and Counterparty hereby waives any right to seek specific performance by Bank of its obligations hereunder. Such failure after any applicable grace period shall be deemed to be an Additional Termination Event, such Transaction shall be the only Affected Transaction and Bank shall be the only Affected Party.

          (i) Severability; Illegality. If compliance by either party with any provision of the Transaction would be unenforceable or illegal, (i) the parties shall negotiate in good faith to resolve such unenforceability or illegality in a manner that preserves the economic benefits of the transactions contemplated hereby and (ii) the other provisions of the Transaction shall not be invalidated, but shall remain in full force and effect.

          (j) Waiver of Trial by Jury. EACH OF COUNTERPARTY AND BANK HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES (ON ITS OWN BEHALF AND, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ON BEHALF OF ITS STOCKHOLDERS) ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE TRANSACTION OR THE ACTIONS OF BANK OR ITS AFFILIATES IN THE NEGOTIATION, PERFORMANCE OR ENFORCEMENT HEREOF.

          (k) Confidentiality. Bank and Counterparty agree that (i) Counterparty is not obligated to Bank to keep confidential from any and all persons or otherwise limit the use of any element of Bank’s descriptions relating to tax aspects of the Transaction and any part of the structure necessary to understand those tax aspects, and (ii) Bank does not assert any claim of proprietary ownership in respect of such descriptions contained herein of the use of any entities, plans or arrangements to give rise to significant U.S. federal income tax benefits for Counterparty.

     (l) Securities Contract. The parties hereto intend for:

     (i) each Transaction hereunder to be a “securities contract” and a “swap agreement” as defined in the Bankruptcy Code (Title 11 of the United States Code) (the “Bankruptcy Code”), and the parties hereto to be entitled to the protections afforded by, among other Sections, Sections 362(b)(6), 555 and 560 of the Bankruptcy Code;

     (ii) the rights given to Bank hereunder upon an Event of Default, Termination Event or Early Termination Date to constitute “contractual rights” to cause the liquidation of a “securities contract” or a “swap agreement” and to set off mutual debts and claims in connection with a “securities contract” or a “swap agreement”, as such terms are used in Sections 555 and 362(b)(6) of the Bankruptcy Code;

     (iii) any cash, securities or other property provided as performance assurance, credit support or collateral with respect to a Transaction to constitute “margin payments” and “transfers” under a “securities contract” or a “swap agreement” as defined in the Bankruptcy Code;

     (iv) all payments for, under or in connection with a Transaction, all payments for the Shares and the transfer of such Shares to constitute “settlement payments” and “transfers” under a “securities contract” or a “swap agreement” as defined in the Bankruptcy Code; and

     (v) any or all obligations that either party has with respect to this Confirmation or the ISDA Agreement to constitute property held by or due from such party to margin, guaranty or

settle obligations of the other party with respect to the transactions under the ISDA Agreement (including any Transaction) or any other agreement between such parties.

          (m) Beneficial Ownership. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the ISDA Agreement or this Confirmation, in no event shall Bank be entitled to receive, or shall be deemed to receive, any Shares if, upon such receipt of such Shares by Bank, its “beneficial ownership” (within the meaning of Section 16 of the Exchange Act and the rules promulgated thereunder) would be equal to or greater than 4.9% or more of the outstanding Shares. If any delivery owed to Bank hereunder is not made, in whole or in part, as a result of this provision, Counterparty’s obligation to make such delivery shall not be extinguished and Counterparty shall make such delivery as promptly as practicable after, but in no event later than one Exchange Business Day after, Bank gives notice to Counterparty that such delivery would not result in Bank directly or indirectly so beneficially owning in excess of 4.9% of the outstanding Shares.
