(vi)                              Counterparty is not, and after giving effect to the transactions contemplated hereby will not be, an “investment company” as such term is defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

10

(vii)                       On the Trade Date and on the Premium Payment Date (A) the assets of Counterparty at their fair valuation exceed the liabilities of Counterparty, including contingent liabilities, (B) the capital of Counterparty is adequate to conduct the business of Counterparty and (C) Counterparty has the ability to pay its debts and obligations as such debts mature and does not intend to, or does not believe that it will, incur debt beyond its ability to pay as such debts mature.

(viii)                        (A)  During each period starting on the first Expiration Date and ending on the last Expiration Date, in each case sharing a common Final Disruption Date (each a “Settlement Period”), the Shares or securities that are convertible into, or exchangeable or exercisable for Shares shall not be, subject to a “restricted period,” as such term is defined in Regulation M under the Exchange Act (“Regulation M”) and (B) Counterparty shall not engage in any “distribution,” as such term is defined in Regulation M, other than a distribution meeting the requirements of the exceptions set forth in sections 101(b)(10) and 102(b)(7) of Regulation M, until the second Exchange Business Day immediately following the relevant Settlement Period.

(ix)                              During each Settlement Period, neither Counterparty nor any “affiliate” or “affiliated purchaser” (each as defined in Rule 10b-18 under the Exchange Act (“Rule 10b-18”)) shall directly or indirectly (including, without limitation, by means of any cash-settled or other derivative instrument) purchase, offer to purchase, place any bid or limit order that would effect a purchase of, or commence any tender offer relating to, any Shares (or an equivalent interest, including a unit of beneficial interest in a trust or limited partnership or a depository share) or any security convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for Shares.

(b)                                 Each of Dealer and Counterparty agrees and represents that it is an “eligible contract participant” as defined in Section 1a(12) of the U.S. Commodity Exchange Act, as amended.

(c)                                  Each of Dealer and Counterparty acknowledges that the offer and sale of the Transaction to it is intended to be exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), by virtue of Section 4(2) thereof.  Accordingly, Counterparty represents and warrants to Dealer and Dealer represents to Counterparty that (i) it has the financial ability to bear the economic risk of its investment in the Transaction and is able to bear a total loss of its investment and its investments in and liabilities in respect of the Transaction, which it understands are not readily marketable, are not disproportionate to its net worth, and it is able to bear any loss in connection with the Transaction, including the loss of its entire investment in the Transaction, (ii) it is an “accredited investor” as that term is defined in Regulation D as promulgated under the Securities Act, (iii) it is entering into the Transaction for its own account without a view to the distribution or resale thereof, (iv) the assignment, transfer or other disposition of the Transaction has not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act and is restricted under this Confirmation, the Securities Act and state securities laws, (v) its financial condition is such that it has no need for liquidity with respect to its investment in the Transaction and no need to dispose of any portion thereof to satisfy any existing or contemplated undertaking or indebtedness and is capable of assessing the merits of and understanding (on its own behalf or through independent professional advice), and understands and accepts, the terms, conditions and risks of the Transaction.

(d)                                 Each of Dealer and Counterparty agrees and acknowledges that Dealer is a “financial institution,” “swap participant” and/or “financial participant” within the meaning of Sections 101(22), 101(53C) and 101(22A) of Title 11 of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”).  The parties hereto further agree and acknowledge (A) that this Confirmation is (i) a “securities contract,” as such term is defined in Section 741(7) of the Bankruptcy Code, with respect to which each payment and delivery hereunder is a “settlement payment,” as such term is defined in Section 741(8) of the Bankruptcy Code, and (ii) a “swap agreement,” as such term is defined in Section 101(53B) of the Bankruptcy Code, with respect to which each payment and delivery hereunder is a “transfer,” as such term is defined in Section 101(54) of the Bankruptcy Code, and (B) that Dealer is entitled to the protections afforded by, among other sections, Sections 362(b)(6), 362(b)(17), 546(e), 546(g), 555 and 560 of the Bankruptcy Code.

(e)                                  Counterparty hereby agrees and acknowledges that the Transaction has not been registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission or any state securities commission and that the Options are being written by Dealer to Counterparty in reliance upon exemptions from any such

11

registration requirements.  Counterparty acknowledges that all Options acquired from Dealer will be acquired for investment purposes only and not for the purpose of resale or other transfer except in compliance with the requirements of the Securities Act.  Counterparty will not sell or otherwise transfer any Option or any interest therein except in compliance with the requirements of the Securities Act and any subsequent offer or sale of the Options will be solely for Counterparty’s account and not as part of a distribution that would be in violation of the Securities Act.

[(f)                          Each party acknowledges and agrees to be bound by the Conduct Rules of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. applicable to transactions in options, and further agrees not to violate the position and exercise limits set forth therein.]

7.              Repurchase Notices.  Counterparty shall, on any day on which Counterparty effects any repurchase of Shares, promptly give Dealer a written notice of such repurchase (a “Repurchase Notice”) on such day if following such repurchase, the Notice Percentage as determined on such day is greater by 0.5% than the Notice Percentage included in the immediately preceding Repurchase Notice (or, in the case of the first such Repurchase Notice or the first such Repurchase Notice after the initial Expiration Date, greater than 4.5%).  The “Notice Percentage” as of any day is the fraction (A) the numerator of which is the aggregate of the Number of Shares for all Components under the Transaction and under any other Capped Call Transactions between Dealer and Counterparty and (B) the denominator of which is the number of Shares outstanding on such day.  In the event that Counterparty fails to provide Dealer with a Repurchase Notice on the day and in the manner specified in this Section 7, then Counterparty to the extent permitted by law agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Dealer, its affiliates and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents and controlling persons (Dealer and each such person being an “Indemnified Person”) from and against any and all losses (including losses relating to Dealer’s hedging activities as a consequence of becoming, or of the risk of becoming, a Section 16 “insider,” including without limitation any forbearance from hedging activities or cessation of hedging activities and any losses in connection therewith with respect to the Transaction), claims, damages and liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), joint or several, to which such Indemnified Person is subject, including without limitation, Section 16 of the Exchange Act), relating to or arising out of such failure.  If for any reason the foregoing indemnification is unavailable to any Indemnified Person or insufficient to hold harmless any Indemnified Person, then Counterparty shall contribute, to the maximum extent permitted by law, to the amount paid or payable by the Indemnified Person as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability.  In addition, Counterparty will reimburse any Indemnified Person for all reasonable expenses (including reasonable counsel fees and expenses) as they are incurred (after notice to Counterparty) in connection with the investigation of, preparation for or defense or settlement of any pending or threatened claim or any action, suit or proceeding (including any governmental or regulatory investigation) arising therefrom, whether or not such Indemnified Person is a party thereto and whether or not such claim, action, suit or proceeding is initiated or brought by or on behalf of Counterparty.  This indemnity shall survive the completion of the Transaction contemplated by this Confirmation and any assignment and delegation of the Transaction made pursuant to this Confirmation or the Agreement shall inure to the benefit of any permitted assignee of Dealer.  Issuer will not be liable under this indemnity provision to the extent any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense is found in a final judgment by a court to have resulted from Dealer’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

8.              Transfer or Assignment.  Neither party may transfer any of its rights or obligations under the Transaction without the prior written consent of the non-transferring party (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld); provided that if at any time the Equity Percentage exceeds 9%, Dealer may immediately, in its sole discretion, transfer or assign a number of Options sufficient to reduce the Equity Percentage to 8.5% to any affiliate of Dealer whose obligations are guaranteed by                                or any third party with (or with a guarantor (a “Third Party Guarantor”) that has) a rating for its long-term, unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness of A- or better by Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services or its successor (“S&P”), or A3 or better by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (“Moody’s”) or, if either S&P or Moody’s ceases to rate such debt, at least an equivalent rating or better by a substitute agency rating mutually agreed by Counterparty and Dealer; provided however such Third Party Guarantor shall provide a guarantee in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Counterparty in connection with such transfer or assignment; provided further that the Dealer provide prompt notice to Counterparty of any such transfer.

12

If, in the discretion of Dealer, Dealer is unable to effect such transfer or assignment after its commercially reasonable efforts on pricing terms reasonably acceptable to Dealer, Dealer may designate any Scheduled Trading Day as an Early Termination Date and an Additional Termination Date shall be deemed to occur with respect to a portion (the “Terminated Portion”) of the Transaction, allocated to Components as Dealer determines in its discretion, such that the Equity Percentage following such partial termination will be equal to or less than 8.5%.  In the event that Dealer so designates an Early Termination Date with respect to a portion of the Transaction, a payment shall be made pursuant to Section 6 of the Agreement as if (i) an Early Termination Date had been designated in respect of a Transaction having terms identical to the Transaction and a Number of Options equal to the Terminated Portion, (ii) Counterparty shall be the Affected Party with respect to such partial termination and (iii) such portion of the Transaction shall be the only Affected Transaction.  The “Equity Percentage” as of any day is the fraction (A) the numerator of which is the number of Shares that Dealer or any of its affiliates that are subject to aggregation with Dealer beneficially own (within the meaning of Section 13 of the Exchange Act) on such day and (B) the denominator of which is the number of Shares outstanding on such day.  Notwithstanding Section 7 of the Agreement, Counterparty may assign its rights and obligations under the Transaction, in whole or in part, on terms reasonably acceptable to both parties, without any payment being owed from Counterparty to Dealer.

9.              Staggered Settlement. If Dealer determines reasonably and in good faith that the number of Shares required to be delivered to Counterparty hereunder on any Settlement Date would have resulted in the Equity Percentage (as defined above) on such date to exceed 4.9%, then Dealer may, by notice to Counterparty on or prior to such Settlement Date (a “Nominal Settlement Date”), elect to deliver the Shares comprising the related Number of Shares to be Delivered on two or more dates (each, a “Staggered Settlement Date”) or at two or more times on the Nominal Settlement Date as follows:

(a)                                 in such notice, Dealer will specify to Counterparty the related Staggered Settlement Dates (the first of which will be such Nominal Settlement Date and the last of which will be no later than twenty (20) Scheduled Trading Days following such Nominal Settlement Date) or delivery times and how it will allocate the Shares it is required to deliver hereunder among the Staggered Settlement Dates or delivery times; and

(b)                                 the aggregate number of Shares that Dealer will deliver to Counterparty hereunder on all such Staggered Settlement Dates or delivery times will equal the number of Shares that Dealer would otherwise have been required to deliver on such Nominal Settlement Date.

10.       Extension of Settlement.   Dealer may divide any Component into additional Components and designate the Expiration Date, the Final Disruption Date and the Number of Options for each such Component if Dealer determines, in its reasonable discretion, that such further division is necessary or advisable to preserve Dealer’s hedging activity hereunder in light of existing liquidity conditions or to enable Dealer to effect purchases of Shares in connection with its hedging activity hereunder in a manner that would, if Dealer were Counterparty or an affiliated purchaser of Counterparty, be compliant with applicable legal and regulatory requirements.

11.       Early Termination Right.  Counterparty may elect to terminate the Transaction, in whole or in part, prior to the relevant Expiration Date, on terms acceptable to both parties, and, if such termination occurs following the payment of the premiums for all Components, without any payment being owed from Counterparty to Dealer.

12.       Equity Rights.  Dealer acknowledges and agrees that this Confirmation is not intended to convey to it rights with respect to the Transaction that are senior to the claims of common stockholders in the event of Counterparty’s bankruptcy.  For the avoidance of doubt, the parties agree that the preceding sentence shall not apply at any time other than during Counterparty’s bankruptcy to any claim arising as a result of a breach by Counterparty of any of its obligations under this Confirmation or the Agreement.  For the avoidance of doubt, the parties acknowledge that this Confirmation is not secured by any collateral that would otherwise secure the obligations of Counterparty herein under or pursuant to any other agreement.

13

13.       Alternative Calculations and Payment on Early Termination and on Certain Extraordinary Events.  If Dealer shall owe Counterparty any amount pursuant to Section 12.2 of the Equity Definitions and “Consequences of Merger Events” above, or Sections 12.3, 12.6, 12.7 or 12.9 of the Equity Definitions (except in the event of a Tender Offer or a Merger Event, in each case, in which the consideration or proceeds to be paid to holders of Shares consists solely of cash) or pursuant to Section 6(d)(ii) of the Agreement (except in the event of an Event of Default in which Counterparty is the Defaulting Party or a Termination Event in which Counterparty is the Affected Party, that resulted from an event or events within Counterparty’s control) (a “Payment Obligation”), Counterparty shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to require Dealer to satisfy any such Payment Obligation by the Share Termination Alternative (as defined below) by giving irrevocable telephonic notice to Dealer, confirmed in writing within one Scheduled Trading Day, between the hours of 9:00 A.M. and 4:00 P.M. New York City time on the Merger Date, Tender Offer Date, Announcement Date, Early Termination Date or other date of termination, as applicable (“Notice of Share Termination”).  Within a commercially reasonable period of time following receipt of a Notice of Share Termination, Dealer shall deliver to Counterparty a number of Share Termination Delivery Units having a cash value equal to the amount of such Payment Obligation (such number of Share Termination Delivery Units to be delivered to be determined by the Calculation Agent as the number of whole Share Termination Delivery Units that could be purchased over a commercially reasonable period of time with the cash equivalent of such payment obligation) (the “Share Termination Alternative”).

14.       Set-Off.  The parties agree to amend Section 6 of the Agreement by replacing Section 6(f) in its entirety with the following:

“(f)  Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default or Termination Event with respect to a party who is the Defaulting Party or the Affected Party (“X”), the other party (“Y”) will have the right (but not be obliged) without prior notice to X or any other person to set-off or apply any obligation of X under an Equity Contract owed to Y (or any Affiliate of Y) (whether or not matured or contingent and whether or not arising under the Agreement, and regardless of the currency, place of payment or booking office of the obligation) against any obligation of Y (or any Affiliate of Y) under an Equity Contract owed to X (whether or not matured or contingent and whether or not arising under the Agreement, and regardless of the currency, place of payment or booking office of the obligation).  Y will give notice to the other party of

14

any set-off effected under this Section 6(f).

“Equity Contract” shall mean for purposes of this Section 6(f) any transaction relating to Shares between X and Y (or any Affiliate of Y) that qualifies as ‘equity’ under applicable accounting rules.

Amounts (or the relevant portion of such amounts) subject to set-off may be converted by Y into the Termination Currency at the rate of exchange at which such party would be able, acting in a reasonable manner and in good faith, to purchase the relevant amount of such currency.

If any obligation is unascertained, Y may in good faith estimate that obligation and set-off in respect of the estimate, subject to the relevant party accounting to the other when the obligation is ascertained.

Nothing in this Section 6(f) shall be effective to create a charge or other security interest.  This Section 6(f) shall be without prejudice and in addition to any right of set-off, combination of accounts, lien or other right to which any party is at any time otherwise entitled (whether by operation of law, contract or otherwise).”

15.       Amendment to Equity Definitions.  Solely for purposes of applying the Equity Definitions and for purposes of this Confirmation, any reference in the Equity Definitions to a Strike Price shall be deemed to be a reference to either of the Strike Price or the Cap Price, or both, as appropriate.

16.       Disclosure.  Effective from the date of commencement of discussions concerning the Transaction, Counterparty and each of its employees, representatives, or other agents may disclose to any and all persons, without limitation of any kind, the tax treatment and tax structure of the Transaction and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that are provided to Counterparty relating to such tax treatment and tax structure.

17.       Unwind.  In the event the sale of the     % Convertible Senior Notes due 2032 and     % Convertible Senior Notes due 2032 is not consummated with the initial purchasers pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, for any reason by the close of business in New York on [•], 2012 (or such later date as agreed upon by the parties which in no event shall be later than the third Scheduled Trading Day following [•], 2012) (such date or such later date as agreed upon being the “Accelerated Unwind Date”), the Transaction shall automatically terminate (the “Accelerated Unwind”) on the Accelerated Unwind Date and (i) the Transaction and all of the respective rights and obligations of Dealer and Counterparty under the Transaction shall be cancelled and terminated and (ii) each party shall be released and discharged by the other party from and agrees not to make any claim against the other party with respect to any obligations or liabilities of the other party arising out of and to be performed in connection with the Transaction either prior to or after the Accelerated Unwind Date; provided that Counterparty shall reimburse Dealer for any costs or expenses (including market losses) relating to the unwinding of its hedging activities in connection with the Transaction (including any loss or cost incurred as a result of its terminating, liquidating, obtaining or reestablishing any hedge or related trading position), which shall be paid in cash or Shares at the option of the Counterparty (and if paid in Shares, with the market valuation of such Shares being determined in a commercially reasonable manner by the Calculation Agent).  The amount of any such reimbursement shall be determined by Dealer in its sole good faith discretion.  Dealer shall notify Counterparty of such amount and Counterparty shall pay such amount in immediately available funds on the Accelerated Unwind Date.  Dealer and Counterparty represent and acknowledge to the other that upon an Accelerated Unwind and the satisfaction of counterparty’s payment obligation, if any, as specified in this Section 17, all obligations with respect to the Transaction shall be deemed fully and finally discharged.

18.       No Collateral by Counterparty.  No collateral is required to be posted by Counterparty in respect of the Transaction.

15

19.       Disposition of Hedge Shares.  Counterparty hereby agrees that if at any time, in the reasonable judgment of counsel for the Dealer, the Shares acquired by Dealer for the purpose of hedging its obligations pursuant to the Transaction (other than such Shares, if any, that are, at the time of such determination, due to be delivered to Counterparty in connection with a Net Share Settlement of the Transaction) (the “Hedge Shares”), cannot be sold in the U.S. public market by Dealer without registration under the Securities Act, Counterparty shall, at its election: (i) in order to allow Dealer to sell the Hedge Shares in a registered offering, use its commercially reasonable efforts to make available to Dealer an effective registration statement under the Securities Act to cover the resale of such Hedge Shares and (A) enter into an agreement, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Dealer, substantially in the form of an underwriting agreement for a registered offering, (B) provide accountant’s “comfort” letters in customary form for registered offerings of equity securities, (C) provide disclosure opinions of nationally recognized outside counsel to Counterparty customary in form for registered offerings of equity securities, (D) provide other customary opinions, certificates and closing documents customary in form for registered offerings of equity securities and (E) afford Dealer a reasonable opportunity to conduct a “due diligence” investigation with respect to Counterparty customary in scope for underwritten offerings of equity securities; provided, however, that if Dealer, in its reasonable discretion, is not satisfied with access to due diligence materials, the results of its due diligence investigation, or the procedures and documentation for the registered offering referred to above, then clause (ii) or clause (iii) of this Section 19 shall apply at the election of Counterparty; (ii) in order to allow Dealer to sell the Hedge Shares in a private placement, enter into a private placement agreement substantially similar to private placement purchase agreements customary for private placements of equity securities, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Dealer, including customary representations, covenants, blue sky and other governmental filings and/or registrations, indemnities to Dealer, due diligence rights (for Dealer or any designated buyer of the Hedge Shares from Dealer), opinions and certificates and such other documentation as is customary for private placements agreements, all reasonably acceptable to Dealer (in which case, the Calculation Agent shall make any adjustments to the terms of the Transaction that are necessary, in its reasonable judgment, to compensate Dealer for any discount from the public market price of the Shares incurred on the sale of Hedge Shares in a private placement); or (iii) purchase the Hedge Shares from Dealer at the VWAP Price on such Exchange Business Days, and in the amounts, as requested by Dealer.

20.       Opinion of Counsel.  Counterparty shall deliver an opinion of counsel, dated as of the Trade Date, in substantially the form attached hereto as Annex B.

21.       Illegality. The parties agree that for the avoidance of doubt, for purposes of Section 5(b)(i) of the Agreement, “any applicable law” shall include Dodd-Frank, without regard to Section 739 of Dodd-Frank or any similar legal certainty provision in any legislation enacted, or rule or regulation promulgated, on or after the date on which a Transaction is entered into, and the consequences specified in the Agreement, including without limitation, the consequences specified in Section 6 of the Agreement, shall apply to any Illegality arising from any such act, rule or regulation.

22.       Waiver of Trial by Jury.  EACH OF COUNTERPARTY AND DEALER 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 DEALER OR ITS AFFILIATES OR COUNTERPARTY OR ITS AFFILIATES IN THE NEGOTIATION, PERFORMANCE OR ENFORCEMENT HEREOF.

23.       Governing Law.  THE AGREEMENT AND THIS CONFIRMATION SHALL BE GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.  THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY SUBMIT TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK AND THE UNITED STATES COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK IN CONNECTION WITH ALL MATTERS RELATING HERETO AND WAIVE ANY OBJECTION TO THE LAYING OF VENUE IN, AND ANY CLAIM OF INCONVENIENT FORUM WITH RESPECT TO, THESE COURTS.
