Re: Cover Letter for Accelerated Share Repurchase

Ladies and Gentlemen:

JPMorgan Chase Bank, National Association, London Branch (the “Seller”) agrees to sell to Janssen Pharmaceutical, a company organized under the laws of Ireland and acting on its own behalf and not as an agent of any other entity (the “Company”), and the Company agrees to purchase from the Seller, for settlement (share delivery) on June 13, 2012 (the “Purchase Date”), 101,870,028 shares (the “Initial Shares”) of capital stock, par value $1.00 per share (the “Common Stock”), of Johnson & Johnson, a New Jersey corporation (the “Issuer”), at a purchase price equal to $6,425,961,366 (the “Purchase Price”) on a free delivery basis. Delivery of the Initial Shares shall be made at or after 5:00 p.m., New York City time (the “Earliest Delivery Time”), on the Purchase Date, to an account specified by the Company prior to such time, and the Seller shall not deliver any of the Initial Shares to the Company earlier than the Earliest Delivery Time on the Purchase Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall have the right to increase or decrease the number of Initial Shares to not more than 101,870,028 shares (the “Maximum Initial Shares”) and not less than 101,870,028 shares (the “Minimum Initial Shares”) by written notice, which may be delivered by electronic mail, to the Seller prior to 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Purchase Date (a “Change Notice”); provided that such Change Notice shall contain a representation and warranty of the Company to the Seller that at the time such notice is delivered, none of the Company and its officers and directors is aware of any material nonpublic information regarding the Issuer or the Common Stock. If the Seller is unable to borrow, on commercially reasonable terms, a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of Initial Shares (as increased or decreased by any Change Notice but without reduction as set forth in this sentence) and deliver such shares to the Company on the Purchase Date, then the number of Initial Shares shall be reduced to such number of shares of Common Stock as the Seller is able to so borrow and deliver and the Purchase Price shall be reduced correspondingly (a “Borrow Unavailability Reduction”). In addition, if the number of Initial Shares (as increased or decreased by any Change Notice and after giving effect to any Borrow Unavailability Reduction) is less than the Maximum Initial Shares, then the Purchase Price shall be reduced by an amount equal to the product of (x) the number of shares of Common Stock by which the Maximum Initial Shares exceeds such number of Initial Shares and (y) $63.08, and if prior to such reduction a higher Purchase Price had been paid by the Company, then on the Trading Day immediately following the Purchase Date, the Seller shall return to the Company an amount equal to the excess of the higher Purchase Price so paid over the Purchase Price as so reduced, without interest. The Seller’s obligation to deliver the Initial Shares on the Purchase Date is conditioned upon the Company’s payment of the Purchase Price at or prior to noon, New York City time, on the Purchase Date.

The Seller shall use reasonable best efforts to so borrow and deliver the Minimum Initial Shares (without giving effect to any Borrow Unavailability Reduction). For the avoidance doubt, in using such reasonable best efforts, the Seller shall act in good faith and in accordance with its then current policies, practices and procedures (including without limitation any policies, practices or procedures relating to counterparty risk, market risk, reputational risk, credit, documentation, legal, regulatory capital, compliance and collateral), and shall not be required to enter into any securities lending transaction or transact with any potential securities lender if such transaction would not be in accordance with such policies, practices and procedures. If the number of Initial Shares (as increased or decreased by any Change Notice) exceeds the Minimum Initial Shares, then, notwithstanding any other provision of the Agreement (as defined below) to the contrary, the Seller shall not be liable in any way for any inability to borrow any shares in excess of the Minimum Initial Shares, and the only consequence of any such inability shall be a Borrow Unavailability Reduction. Promptly upon request from the Company prior to the Earliest Delivery Time, the Seller shall orally inform the Company of the Seller’s good faith estimate of the minimum number of shares of Common Stock that the Seller will be able to deliver to the Company at or after the Earliest Delivery Time on the Purchase Date. For the avoidance of doubt, the giving of any such estimate shall not alter the Seller’s obligations in respect of any of the Initial Shares as set forth in the Agreement.

The Seller and the Company agree that time is of the essence with respect to the delivery of the Initial Shares pursuant to the Agreement (as defined below). Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) the Seller shall not be responsible for the acts or omissions of any third parties, including any transfer agent, custodian, stock lender or clearance system, or of the Issuer, the Company or any affiliate or agent of the Issuer or the Company and (ii) the Seller shall not be liable for any special, consequential or indirect damages resulting from any failure to fulfill its obligations in respect of the Initial Shares (before any reduction as provided above) when due. Without limiting the generality of the immediately preceding sentence, the Seller shall have fulfilled its obligations under the Agreement to deliver the Initial Shares if the Seller has deposited the Initial Shares into the Seller’s account at Computershare Trust Company, N.A. (the “Custodian”), the further transfer and delivery to the Company of the Initial Shares is not limited in any way by any action or inaction by the Seller or its affiliates and the Seller has instructed the Custodian to transfer the Initial Shares at or after the Earliest Delivery Time on the Purchase Date from such account to the Company’s account at the Custodian.

The Seller and the Company agree that the sale and purchase of the Initial Shares is subject to the agreements, terms and conditions set forth in the Schedule of Standard Terms and Conditions attached hereto as Annex I, which is incorporated by reference herein and is an integral part of this agreement (the “Schedule” and, together with this Cover Letter for Accelerated Share Repurchase, the “Agreement”). Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meaning assigned to them in the Schedule.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Agreement (including the Schedule), the following shall be conditions precedent to the effectiveness of the Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby: (i) no later than the date hereof, the Seller and the Issuer shall enter into a guarantee agreement substantially in the form set forth in Annex II hereto (the “Guarantee”), (ii) the Company shall deliver to the Seller on or prior to the Purchase Date an opinion of counsel to the Company substantially to the effect set forth in the first sentence of Section 12(g) and Section 12(j) of the Schedule, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Seller, which opinion shall be rendered by nationally recognized outside counsel to the Company, except for the opinion substantially to the effect set forth in the first sentence of Section 12(g) of the Schedule, which may be rendered by internal counsel to the Company, (iii) the Company and the Company’s Irish counsel shall have provided to the Seller and the Seller’s Irish counsel such information and documents as the Seller shall have reasonably requested to allow the Seller’s Irish counsel to deliver to the Seller an opinion substantially to the effect set forth in Sections 12(b), 12(g) and 12(h) of the Schedule with respect to matters of Irish law, and (iv) the Company shall complete, execute and deliver to the Seller on or prior to the Purchase Date a valid and materially accurate and complete United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN (or successor thereto).

The Company hereby informs the Seller that it intends to enter into a similar letter agreement with a separate financial institution (the “Other Agreement”), and that it has structured each letter agreement such that no “Relevant Day” in such similar letter agreement is a Relevant Day under the Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, the Agreement creates no rights or obligations as between Seller #1 and Seller #2 (each as defined below).

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Agreement, the Company shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to cancel the Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby at any time (the “Cancellation Time”) prior to the Averaging Period Start Date, upon prior notice to the Seller. Any such notice of cancellation shall be delivered to each of the employees of the Seller specified in Schedule I hereto, and not to any other employees or agents of the Seller. At the time the Company gives any such notice of cancellation, or as soon thereafter as such representation and warranty would be true, the Company shall represent and warrant in writing to the Seller that none of the Company and its officers and directors is aware of any material nonpublic information regarding the Issuer or the Common Stock (the “MNPI Representation”). If the Cancellation Time occurs prior to the time (the “Time of Ownership”) at which ownership of the Initial Shares passes to the Company or its agent (the Time of Ownership to be the earliest time determined by either party in good faith upon the advice of counsel), then the Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby shall be cancelled and shall terminate without any obligation of any party thereto; provided that (i) if the Purchase Price had been paid prior to the Cancellation Time, the Seller shall promptly return the Purchase Price to the Company; (ii) the Company shall, upon reasonable request of the Seller, assist in the return of any of the Initial Shares to the Seller or to any counterparties to stock loan transactions with the Seller, and (iii) the Company shall pay to the Seller the amount of the Seller’s cost to borrow shares of Common Stock (including related funding costs) incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Agreement, as determined by the Calculation Agent in accordance with Section 11 of the Schedule. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) the Company shall not give notice of any such cancellation between 9:00 a.m. and 4:30 p.m., New York City time, on any Trading Day, unless the Company shall have previously publicly disclosed the fact that the transactions contemplated by the Agreement are being cancelled in a Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (and the Seller may deem the filing of any such Form 8-K as notice of a cancellation of the transactions contemplated by the Agreement), in which case the Company shall also substantially contemporaneously with such filing, give separate notice of such cancellation to the Seller, and any such notice delivered in violation of this sentence shall not be effective to cancel the transactions contemplated by the Agreement; and (B) if the Company gives notice of any such cancellation at any other time, the Company shall publicly disclose the fact that the transactions contemplated by the Agreement are being cancelled in a Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission no later than 9:30 a.m., New York City time, following the time at which such notice is given, and the Company acknowledges that failure to timely make such filing could result in significant trading losses by the Seller and its affiliates.

If the Cancellation Time occurs at or after the Time of Ownership, then the Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby shall be cancelled and shall terminate in accordance with the following terms:

(i) The Company shall promptly, and in any event within two scheduled Trading Days of the Cancellation Time (but no earlier than as requested by the Seller), deliver to the Seller a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of Initial Shares (the “Cancellation Shares”) and, promptly following such delivery, the Seller shall return the Purchase Price to the Company; provided that such delivery and return is subject to adjustment by the Calculation Agent in accordance with Section 11 of the Schedule to account for the Close-out Amount (as defined in the 2002 ISDA Master Agreement, as published by the International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc., with the transactions contemplated by the Agreement deemed to be the sole Transaction under such Master Agreement) in respect of such termination. The Calculation Agent shall notify the parties of the amount of such adjustment, expressed both as a number of shares of Common Stock and as an amount of cash in U.S. dollars, promptly following the Cancellation Time, and the Company shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to elect that such adjustment be effected as an adjustment to the number of Cancellation Shares so delivered by the Company to the Seller or as an adjustment to the amount of cash so returned by the Seller to the Company. For the avoidance of doubt, in determining such Close-out Amount, the Calculation Agent shall take into account the anticipated entry into the Share Sales Agreement (as defined below) and the transactions contemplated thereby.

(ii) The Company shall cause the Issuer to promptly, and in any event within two scheduled Trading Days of the Cancellation Time, execute and deliver a Share Sales Agreement, substantially in the form of Annex V hereto, with the Seller and the Seller’s Broker-Dealer Entity (the “Share Sales Agreement”), covering the sale of the Cancellation Shares by the Seller or its affiliate.

(iii) If the number of Cancellation Shares exceeds the number of shares of Common Stock comprising Seller’s net short position in respect of the transactions contemplated by the Agreement at the Cancellation Time (such latter number of shares, the “Short Position”), then any Cancellation Shares in excess of the Short Position shall be “Excess Shares” and the following provisions shall apply. At the Cancellation Time, a notional balance (the “Excess Shares Balance”) shall be established with an initial balance equal to the product of the number of Excess Shares and the per share market value of the Common Stock at the Cancellation Time, as determined by the Calculation Agent in accordance with Section 11 of the Schedule. The Seller or its affiliate shall, promptly following delivery of the Cancellation Shares, the execution of the Share Sales Agreement and the availability of the Prospectus (as defined therein) thereunder as provided therein, commence sales of the Excess Shares on Scheduled Relevant Days pursuant to the Share Sales Agreement, and 99% of the net proceeds of such sales shall be applied to reduce the Excess Shares Balance. If all of the Excess Shares have been sold and the Excess Shares Balance has not been reduced to zero, then the Seller shall so notify the Company and the Company shall, within one scheduled Trading Day of such notice, either (A) pay an amount to the Seller equal to the remaining Excess Shares Balance, or (B) deliver to the Seller a number of additional shares of Common Stock (“Make-whole Excess Shares”) equal to (x) the remaining Excess Shares Balance divided by (y)(1) the per share market value of the Common Stock, as determined by the Calculation Agent in accordance with Section 11 of the Schedule multiplied by (2) 99%. The Company may elect either clause (A) or clause (B) of the immediately preceding sentence in its sole discretion. If the Company elects to deliver Make-whole Excess Shares, those Make-whole Excess Shares will be deemed to be Excess Shares pursuant to this subparagraph (iii) and the provisions of this subparagraph (iii) shall apply until the Excess Shares Balance has been reduced to zero (for the avoidance of doubt, the delivery of Make-whole Excess Shares shall not increase the Excess Shares Balance). If at any time the Excess Shares Balance has been reduced to zero and the Seller or its affiliate has so sold fewer than all of Excess Shares and any Make-whole Excess Shares, then the Seller shall promptly return to the Company any Excess Shares or Make-whole Excess Shares remaining unsold at the time the Excess Shares Balance is reduced to zero. For the avoidance of doubt, sales of the Excess Shares and any Make-whole Excess Shares pursuant to this subparagraph (iii) shall be completed prior to the commencement of sales of the Cancellation Shares that are not Excess Shares pursuant to the Share Sales Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be required to deliver more than the Maximum Deliverable Number of shares of Common Stock as Make-whole Excess Shares hereunder.

If the Company cancels the transactions contemplated by the Other Agreement pursuant to a cancellation right similar to that described above, the Company shall immediately notify the Seller, and, if the Company does not elect to cancel the transactions contemplated by the Agreement substantially contemporaneously with such cancellation of the transactions contemplated by the Other Agreement, then the Seller shall have the right to cancel the transactions contemplated by the Agreement with the same effect as if the Company had elected to cancel the transactions contemplated by the Agreement as provided above.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the last day of the Averaging Period would otherwise occur during any Acceleration Blackout Period and the Settlement Amount would otherwise be greater than zero, then the last day of the Averaging Period shall be the first Relevant Day after the last day of such Acceleration Blackout Period. “Acceleration Blackout Period” means each of the following periods (inclusive in each case): (i) June 25 to July 1, 2012; (ii) September 24 to September 30, 2012; (iii) December 21 to December 30, 2012; (iv) March 22 to March 31, 2013; (v) June 24 to June 30, 2013; (vi) September 23 to September 29, 2013; (vii) December 20 to December 29, 2013; and (viii) any subsequent period ending on the Sunday nearest to the last day of each March, June, September and December and beginning on the fifth scheduled Trading Day before such Sunday.

If the Other Bank Completion Date does not occur on such scheduled Other Bank Completion Date, the Company shall so notify the Seller no later than such scheduled Other Bank Completion Date of such occurrence, and shall subsequently notify the Seller of the occurrence of the Other Bank Completion Date no later than the Other Bank Completion Date.

(a) The Initial Shares may be sold short to the Company. It is understood that on any Relevant Day during the Averaging Period and any Additional Purchase Period the Seller may purchase shares of Common Stock in connection with the Agreement, which shares may be used to cover all or a portion of such short sale. Such purchases will be conducted independently of the Company. The timing of such purchases by the Seller, the number of shares purchased by the Seller on any day, the price paid per share of Common Stock pursuant to such purchases and the manner in which such purchases are made, including without limitation whether such purchases are made on any securities exchange or privately, shall be within the absolute discretion of the Seller. From and including the Averaging Period Start Date to and including the earlier of (i) the Other Bank Completion Date (as defined in the Cover Letter) or (ii) the Relevant Period End Date or, if the Settlement Amount is less than zero, the last day of the Valuation Period, the Seller shall not purchase any shares of Common Stock or enter into any transactions that, in whole or in part, have the effect of giving the Seller “long” economic exposure to the Common Stock in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Agreement on any Trading Day that is not a Relevant Day; provided that the Seller shall be permitted on any day to exercise listed options relating to shares of Common Stock or deliver or receive shares of Common upon exercise of listed options relating to shares of Common Stock, in either case so long as such options were purchased or written in compliance with this sentence.

(b) It is the intent of the parties that this transaction comply with the requirements of Rule 10b5-1(c)(1)(i)(B) of the Exchange Act, and the parties agree that the Agreement shall be interpreted to comply with the requirements of Rule 10b5-1(c), and neither the Seller nor the Company shall take any action that results in this transaction not so complying with such requirements; provided that nothing herein shall be interpreted as making the Seller responsible for any failure by the Company to comply with the requirements of Rule 10b5-1(c). Without limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, the Company acknowledges and agrees that (A) the Company does not have, and shall not attempt to exercise, any influence over how, when or whether the Seller effects any purchases of Common Stock in connection with the Agreement, (B) from and including the date of the Agreement to and including the last Settlement Day under the Agreement, neither the Company nor its officers or employees shall, directly or indirectly, communicate any material nonpublic information regarding the Issuer or the Common Stock to, or otherwise influence the trading decisions of, any Restricted Contact Personnel, (C) the Company is entering into the Agreement and the transactions contemplated by the Agreement in good faith and not as part of a plan or scheme to evade compliance with federal securities laws including, without limitation, Rule 10b-5 promulgated under the Exchange Act and (D) the Company will not alter or deviate from the Agreement or enter into or alter a corresponding hedging transaction with respect to the Common Stock and will otherwise comply with Rule 10b5-1(c)(1)(i)(C).

(c) In the event that the Seller, in its good faith discretion, determines that it is appropriate with regard to any legal, regulatory or self-regulatory requirements or related policies and procedures (whether or not such requirements, policies or procedures are imposed by law or have been voluntarily adopted by the Seller but so long as such requirements, policies or procedures are generally applicable to transactions similar to the Agreement, and including without limitation Rule 10b-18, Rule 10b-5, Regulation 13D-G and Regulation 14E under the Exchange Act, and Regulation M, collectively, the “Requirements”), for the Seller to refrain from purchasing Common Stock or to purchase fewer than the number of shares of Common Stock that the Seller would otherwise purchase on any Relevant Day during the Averaging Period or, if the Settlement Amount is less than zero, the Additional Purchase Period, then the Seller may, in its discretion, elect that the Averaging Period or the Additional Purchase Period, as the case may be, be extended or suspended and extended as appropriate with regard to any Requirements. If the Seller extends the Averaging Period or the Additional Purchase Period pursuant to this Section 3(c) without suspending such period, the Seller shall as soon as reasonably practicable, and in no event later than 4:30 p.m., New York City time, on the Scheduled Relevant Day immediately preceding the date that would have been the Scheduled Last Averaging Date or the last Relevant Day of the Additional Purchase Period, as the case may be, without extension, notify the Company of such extension and of the new Scheduled Last Averaging Date or the new scheduled last Relevant Day of the Additional Purchase Period, as applicable. If the Seller suspends the Averaging Period or the Additional Purchase Period, the Seller shall notify the Company no later than 4:30 p.m., New York City time, on the date of such suspension. At the end of such suspension the Seller shall determine the number of Relevant Days remaining until the Scheduled Last Averaging Date or in the Additional Purchase Period, as the case may be, which number shall not exceed the Remaining Scheduled Days as of the time of such suspension. The Seller shall notify the Company as soon as reasonably practicable, but in no event later than the Relevant Day immediately following the end of such suspension, of the new Scheduled Last Averaging Date or the new scheduled last Relevant Day of the Additional Purchase Period, as applicable. To the extent such disclosure is consistent with any applicable legal, regulatory or self-regulatory requirements or related policies and procedures (whether or not such requirements, policies or procedures are imposed by law or have been voluntarily adopted by the Seller but so long as such requirements, policies or procedures are generally applicable to transactions similar to the Agreement, and including without limitation Rule 10b-5), the Seller shall provide, together with any notice of suspension or extension pursuant to this Section 3(c), an explanation of the reasons therefor.

(d) The Company agrees that neither the Company nor any of its affiliates or agents shall take any action that would cause Regulation M to be applicable to any purchases of Common Stock, or any security for which the Common Stock is a reference security (as defined in Regulation M), by the Issuer or any of its affiliated purchasers (as defined in Regulation M) during the Relevant Period, unless the Company or its affiliate has provided written notice to the Seller of a planned “distribution” (as defined in Regulation M) of Common Stock or any security for which Common Stock is a reference security not later than the opening of trading on the first day of the relevant “restricted period” (as defined in Regulation M). The Company acknowledges that any such notice may cause the Averaging Period or the Additional Purchase Period, as the case may be, to be suspended pursuant to Section 3(c). Accordingly, the Company acknowledges that its or such affiliate’s actions in relation to any such announcement or transaction must comply with the standards set forth in Section 3(b) and represents that it will not be aware of material non-public information at the time it provides such notice to the Seller.

(e) The Company acknowledges that any public announcement (as defined in Rule 165(f) under the Securities Act) of any merger, acquisition, or similar transaction involving a recapitalization relating to the Issuer (other than any such transaction in which the consideration consists solely of cash and there is no valuation period) may cause the Averaging Period or the Additional Purchase Period, as the case may be, to be suspended pursuant to Section 3(c). Accordingly, the Company acknowledges that its or any affiliate’s actions in relation to any such announcement or transaction must comply with the standards set forth in Section 3(b) and represents that it will not be aware of material non-public information on the date of any such announcement.

SECTION 4. Company Purchases.

On any Trading Day during the Relevant Period, without the prior written consent of the Seller, the Company shall not directly or indirectly (including, without limitation, by means of a 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 of Common Stock (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 for shares of Common Stock except as contemplated in Section 17 below; provided that the Company may enter into an accelerated share repurchase transaction substantially identical to the transactions contemplated by the Agreement with another dealer on the date hereof (an “Other Transaction”) so long as no “Relevant Day” under such Other Transaction is a Relevant Day under the Agreement. The Seller acknowledges and agrees that nothing in the Agreement shall (i) prohibit any purchases effected by or for an issuer “plan” by an “agent independent of the issuer” (each as defined in Rule 10b-18), (ii) limit the Company’s or any Issuer Entity’s ability to withhold shares of Common Stock to cover tax liabilities associated with equity transactions by such a plan or (iii) otherwise restrict the Company’s or any Issuer Entity’s ability to repurchase shares of Common Stock under privately negotiated transactions with any of its employees, officers, directors or affiliates, so long as, in the case of clause (i), (ii) or (iii) of this sentence, any such purchase, withholding or repurchase does not constitute a “Rule 10b-18 purchase” (as defined in Rule 10b-18) .

SECTION 5. Settlement.

(a) After the last day of the Averaging Period,

(i) if the Settlement Amount is greater than zero the Seller shall transfer to the Company, for no additional consideration, a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Settlement Amount on the third Trading Day following the Purchase Completion Date, or

(ii) if the Settlement Amount is less than zero and the Company has elected to:

(A) deliver Registered Payment Shares, the Company shall transfer to the Seller, for no additional consideration, a number of shares of Common Stock, which will be registered for resale in the manner set forth in Section 6(a), equal to the sum of the Share Amounts for each of the Relevant Days in the Valuation Period (the “Registered Payment Shares”) in the manner provided in Section 5(b),

(B) deliver Restricted Payment Shares, the Company shall transfer to the Seller, for no additional consideration, a number of shares of Common Stock, which will not be registered for resale, equal to the Restricted Share Amount (the “Restricted Payment Shares”) on the Settlement Day corresponding to the Purchase Completion Date in the manner provided in Section 5(b), and any Make-Whole Payment Shares as provided in Section 5(c), or

(C) make a cash payment, the Company shall make a cash payment to the Seller in immediately available funds in an amount equal to the Cash Settlement Amount on the third Trading Day following the Purchase Completion Date.

If the Settlement Amount is less than zero, then no later than 8:00 p.m. New York City time on the last day of the Averaging Period (or, in the event that the Seller designates an Accelerated End Date pursuant to, and as defined in, the Cover Letter, no later than 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the scheduled Trading Day immediately following the date of such designation), the Company shall specify in a notice to the Seller substantially in the form set forth in Appendix A hereto (the “Company Election Notice”) the Company’s election for the Company to deliver Registered Payment Shares, to deliver Restricted Payment Shares or to make a cash payment. Once made, such election will be irrevocable. If the Company fails to make such an election by the election deadline, the Company shall have been deemed to have elected to make a cash payment. If the Company elects to deliver Registered Payment Shares or Restricted Payment Shares pursuant to this Section 5(a)(ii), the Calculation Agent shall have the right to adjust the Cash Settlement Amount to compensate the Seller for its cost of funds at the Federal Funds Rate plus 10 basis points during the Valuation Period.

(b) Delivery of Registered Payment Shares or Restricted Payment Shares shall be made as follows:

(i) if Registered Payment Shares are to be transferred to the Seller, on each Settlement Day corresponding to each Relevant Day in the Valuation Period, the Company shall deliver to the Seller a number of Registered Payment Shares equal to the Share Amount for such Relevant Day, and if the Share Amount for any Relevant Day during the Valuation Period includes fractional shares, in lieu of delivering the fractional shares, the Company shall deliver cash to the Seller in an amount based on the closing price of the Common Stock on the NYSE on that Relevant Day, and

(ii) if Restricted Payment Shares are to be transferred to the Seller, on the Settlement Day corresponding to the Purchase Completion Date, the Company shall deliver to the Seller a number of Restricted Payment Shares equal to the Restricted Share Amount, and the Company shall deliver any additional Make-Whole Payment Shares as provided in Section 5(c).

(c) If Restricted Payment Shares are delivered in accordance with Section 5(b)(ii), on the Purchase Completion Date a balance (the “Settlement Balance”) shall be established with an initial balance equal to the Cash Settlement Amount. Following the delivery of Restricted Payment Shares or any Make-Whole Payment Shares, the Seller shall sell all such Restricted Payment Shares or Make-Whole Payment Shares in a commercially reasonable manner during the Valuation Period. At the end of each Trading Day upon which sales have been made, the Settlement Balance shall be reduced by an amount equal to 97% of the aggregate proceeds received by the Seller upon the sale of such Restricted Payment Shares or Make-Whole Payment Shares. If, on any Trading Day, all Restricted Payment Shares and Make-Whole Payment Shares have been sold and the Settlement Balance has not been reduced to zero, the Company shall (i) deliver to the Seller or as directed by the Seller on the Settlement Day corresponding to such Trading Day an additional number of Shares (the “Make-Whole Payment Shares”) equal to (x) the Settlement Balance as of such Trading Day divided by (y) the Restricted Share Value of the Make-Whole Payment Shares or (ii) promptly deliver to the Seller cash in an amount equal to the then remaining Settlement Balance. This provision shall be applied successively until either the Settlement Balance is reduced to zero or the aggregate number of Restricted Payment Shares and Make-Whole Payment Shares equals the Maximum Deliverable Number. If the Settlement Balance has been reduced to zero prior to the sale of all Restricted Payment Shares and Make-Whole Payment Shares that have been delivered to the Seller, the Seller shall return any unsold Restricted Payment Shares and Make-Whole Payment Shares to the Company.

(iv) as of the Purchase Completion Date, an agreement (the “Transfer Agreement”) shall have been entered into among the Seller, the Company and the Issuer in connection with the public resale of the Registered Payment Shares by the Seller substantially similar to underwriting agreements customary for underwritten offerings of equity securities of comparable issuers, in form and substance commercially reasonably satisfactory to the Seller, which Transfer Agreement shall include, without limitation, provisions substantially similar to those contained in such underwriting agreements relating to the indemnification of, and contribution in connection with the liability of, the Seller and its affiliates.

If the Settlement Amount is less than zero and the Company has elected to deliver Registered Payment Shares and any of the above conditions is not satisfied as of the Purchase Completion Date, the Company shall, in lieu of delivery of Registered Payment Shares, either (x) make a cash payment to the Seller in immediately available funds in an amount equal to the Cash Settlement Amount on the second Trading Day following the Purchase Completion Date and shall reimburse the Seller for all reasonable, documented out-of-pocket expenses it has incurred in connection with due diligence and otherwise in connection with the anticipated delivery of the Registered Payment Shares, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and expenses of outside counsel to the Seller incurred in connection thereof or (y) deliver Restricted Payment Shares pursuant to Section 5(a)(ii)(B) and Make-Whole Payment Shares pursuant to Section 5(c), in which case the Calculation Agent may make appropriate adjustments to the settlement terms to compensate the Seller for all reasonable, documented out-of-pocket expenses it has incurred in connection with due diligence and otherwise in connection with the anticipated delivery of the Registered Payment Shares, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and expenses of outside counsel to the Seller incurred in connection thereof.

(b) If the Company elects to deliver Restricted Payment Shares pursuant to Section 5(a)(ii)(B) and Make-Whole Payment Shares pursuant to Section 5(c), then:

(i) all Restricted Payment Shares and Make-Whole Payment Shares shall be delivered to the Seller (or any affiliate of the Seller designated by the Seller) pursuant to the exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act provided by Section 4(2) thereof;

(ii) The Seller’s Broker-Dealer Entity, if any, the Seller and any potential purchaser of any such shares from the Seller (or any affiliate of the Seller designated by the Seller) identified by the Seller’s Broker-Dealer Entity, if any, or the Seller shall be afforded a commercially reasonable opportunity to conduct a due diligence investigation with respect to the Issuer customary in scope for private placements of equity securities and the results of such investigation are reasonably satisfactory to such person, in its discretion; and

(iii) the Company and the Issuer shall enter into an agreement (a “Private Placement Agreement”) with the Seller (or any affiliate of the Seller designated by the Seller) in connection with the private placement of such shares by the Company to the Seller (or any such affiliate) and the private resale of such shares by the Seller (or any such affiliate), substantially similar to private placement purchase agreements customary for private placements of equity securities of comparable issuers, in form and substance commercially reasonably satisfactory to the Seller or such affiliate, which Private Placement Agreement shall include, without limitation, provisions substantially similar to those contained in such private placement purchase agreements relating to the indemnification of, and contribution in connection with the liability of, the Seller and its affiliates, and shall provide for the payment by the Company of all reasonable, documented out-of-pocket expenses in connection with such resale, including all reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for the Seller, and shall contain representations, warranties and agreements of the Issuer and the Company reasonably necessary or advisable to establish and maintain the availability of an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act for such resales.

(c) If the Company elects to deliver Restricted Payment Shares pursuant to Section 5(a)(ii)(B) above, the Company shall not take or cause to be taken any action that would make unavailable either (i) the exemption set forth in Section 4(2) of the Securities Act for the sale of any Restricted Payment Shares or Make-Whole Payment Shares by the Company to the Seller or (ii) an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act reasonably acceptable to the Seller for resales of Restricted Payment Shares and Make-Whole Payment Shares by the Seller.

(d) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 5(a) above, if the Company has elected to deliver any Payment Shares hereunder, the Company shall not be required to deliver more than the Maximum Deliverable Number of shares of Common Stock as Payment Shares hereunder.

SECTION 7. Adjustment of Terms.

(a) In the event (i) of any of the following events involving the Issuer or the Common Stock: bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization pursuant to Title 11 of the United States Code, Merger Event, Tender Offer, Potential Adjustment Event or Acquisition Transaction Announcement, (ii) the Scheduled Last Averaging Date is extended or postponed or the Averaging Period is suspended pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, (iii) the Seller determines, in its good faith reasonable discretion, that, after using its reasonable best efforts, the Seller is unable or it is impracticable to establish, re-establish, substitute or maintain a hedge of the Seller’s position on commercially reasonable terms in respect of the transactions contemplated by the Agreement or (iv) the Seller determines, in its good faith reasonable discretion, that, after using its reasonable best efforts, it is unable, for reasons other than a deterioration in its creditworthiness, to borrow or maintain borrowings, on commercially reasonable terms, of the total number of shares of Common Stock it reasonably determines necessary to hedge its position in respect of the transactions contemplated by the Agreement at an average rebate rate greater than or equal to the Federal Funds Rate minus 35 basis points, then, in each case, the Scheduled Last Averaging Date, any Daily Average Price, the Settlement Amount and the Cash Settlement Amount, if any, shall be subject to adjustment by the Calculation Agent as in the exercise of its good faith judgment it deems appropriate under the circumstances to preserve the fair value of the Agreement to the Seller prior to the occurrence of such event. For the avoidance of doubt, in using reasonable best efforts as contemplated by clauses (iii) and (iv) of the immediately preceding sentence, the Seller shall act in good faith and in accordance with its then current policies, practices and procedures (including without limitation any policies, practices or procedures relating to counterparty risk, market risk, reputational risk, credit, documentation, legal, regulatory capital, compliance and collateral), and shall not be required to enter into any securities lending transaction or hedging transaction or transact with any potential securities lender or hedging counterparty if such transaction would not be in accordance with such policies, practices and procedures, and the Seller shall not be responsible for the acts or omissions of any third parties, including any transfer agent, custodian, stock lender, hedging counterparty or clearance system, or of the Issuer, the Company or any affiliate or agent of the Issuer or the Company. For the avoidance of doubt, no such adjustment shall result in an obligation of the Company to make a cash payment to the Seller, it being understood that such adjustment may be reflected in the cash amount payable at the Company’s election pursuant to Section 5(a)(ii)(C).

(b) Notwithstanding the authority provided to the Calculation Agent in subsection (a) of this Section 7, in the event of a corporate event (such as certain reorganizations, mergers, or other similar events) in which all holders of Common Stock may receive consideration other than the common equity securities of the continuing or surviving entity, the adjustments referred to in such subsection shall permit the Company to satisfy its settlement obligations hereunder by delivering the consideration received by holders of Common Stock upon such corporate event, in such proportions as in the exercise of its good faith judgment the Calculation Agent deems appropriate under the circumstances.

(c) In the event that the Issuer declares or pays any Extraordinary Dividend, a Termination Price Event occurs or a Company Bankruptcy occurs, the Seller shall have the right in its discretion to accelerate the settlement of the transactions contemplated by the Agreement by designating any Relevant Day on or after the date of the declaration of such Extraordinary Dividend, the occurrence of such Termination Price Event or the occurrence of such Company Bankruptcy, as the case may be, as the “Acceleration Date”, in which event the last day of the Averaging Period shall be accelerated to the Acceleration Date (regardless of whether the Averaging Period Start Date or First Acceleration Date has occurred prior to the Acceleration Date or whether the Acceleration Date would otherwise occur during any Acceleration Blackout Period), and the Average Purchase Price shall be determined as if the Daily Average Price for all Relevant Days that were, but for such acceleration, scheduled to occur during the Averaging Period on or after the Acceleration Date were the average per share price obtained by the Calculation Agent from at least three experienced third party market participants as the price at which such participant would offer to sell to the Seller a block of shares of Common Stock (with such legal or other restrictions as the Seller may in its reasonable judgment impose on such participant relating to the acquisition of such block or, if such block may be sold short to the Seller, the covering of such participant’s resulting short position) equal in number to the Seller’s theoretical net short position in relation to the Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby as of the Acceleration Date, as determined in good faith by the Calculation Agent, with such adjustments to such Average Purchase Price as the Calculation Agent shall determine are appropriate to account for the effect of such acceleration on the fair value of the transactions contemplated by the Agreement, and with the Calculation Agent determining a commercially reasonable assumed last Relevant Day of the Averaging Period to be used in making such calculation, which assumed last Relevant Day shall be a day that could have been the last day of the Averaging Period pursuant to the Cover Letter; provided that no adjustment shall be made to account for any Extraordinary Dividend. “Extraordinary Dividend” means any dividend on the Common Stock with an ex-dividend date that occurs from and including the date of the Cover Letter through and including the last day of the Averaging Period, other than one ordinary cash dividend of $[***] per share per calendar quarter with an ex-dividend date occurring on or after [***],[***],[***],[***],[***] or [***], as applicable, during such calendar quarter, it being understood and agreed that such dividend amount and dates have not been approved by the board of directors of the Issuer and no assurance can be given that such approval will be given by the board of directors of the Issuer.

(d) In the event that the Issuer effects a share split of the Common Stock, the Maximum Deliverable Number shall be adjusted to equal (i) the Maximum Deliverable Number prior to such adjustment multiplied by (ii) (x) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after the effective date of such share split divided by (y) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the effective date of such share split.

(e) For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall the Calculation Agent have the right to adjust or modify the definition of Scheduled Relevant Day or the duties of the Seller under Section 3(a) of this Schedule or, prior to delivery of the Initial Shares to the Company pursuant to the Agreement, the Initial Shares (other than to account for share dividends or share splits or similar events).

SECTION 19. Tax Gross-Up.

(a) As used in this Section 19, the following terms shall have the following meanings:

“Code” means the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

“Credit Support Document” means (i) in relation to the Company, the Guarantee (as defined in the Cover Letter) and (ii) in relation to any assignee following an assignment under Section 9, any guarantee of the obligations of such assignee provided pursuant to Section 9.

“Credit Support Provider” means (i) in relation to the Company, the Issuer and (ii) in relation to any assignee following an assignment under Section 9, the guarantor of the obligations of such assignee under the guarantee provided pursuant to Section 9.

“Designated Tax” means, with respect to the Seller’s payment (if any) under Section 5(a)(i) or any return of Purchase Price, Excess Shares or Make-whole Excess Shares (as those terms are defined in the Cover Letter) by the Seller to the Company in connection with a cancellation of the Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby pursuant to the terms of the Cover Letter, (i) any Dividend Equivalent Tax, (ii) any FATCA Withholding Tax or (iii) any tax that would not have been imposed if the Seller had made such payment or return on the date of the Agreement.

“Dividend Equivalent Tax” means any tax imposed on payments treated as dividends from sources within the United States under Section 871(m) of the Code.

“FATCA Withholding Tax” means any tax imposed under Section 1471 or 1472 of the Code (or the United States Treasury regulations or other guidance issued or any agreements entered into thereunder).

“Indemnifiable Tax” means any Tax other than a Tax that would not be imposed in respect of a payment under the Agreement but for a present or former connection between the jurisdiction of the government or taxation authority imposing such Tax and the recipient of such payment or a person related to such recipient (including, without limitation, a connection arising from such recipient or related person being or having been a citizen or resident of such jurisdiction, or being or having been organized, present or engaged in a trade or business in such jurisdiction, or having or having had a permanent establishment or fixed place of business in such jurisdiction, but excluding a connection arising solely from such recipient or related person having executed, delivered, performed its obligations or received a payment under, or enforced, the Agreement or a Credit Support Document), excluding (i) any Dividend Equivalent Tax and (ii) any FATCA Withholding Tax.

“Tax” means any present or future tax, levy, impost, duty, charge, assessment or fee of any nature (including interest, penalties and additions thereto) that is imposed by any government or other taxing authority in respect of any payment under the Agreement other than a stamp, registration, documentation or similar tax.

(b) Subject to Section 19(e), all payments under the Agreement will be made without any deduction or withholding for or on account of any Tax unless such deduction or withholding is required by any applicable law, as modified by the practice of any relevant government or taxation authority, then in effect. If a party is so required to deduct or withhold, then that party (“X”) will:

(i) promptly notify the other party (“Y”) of such requirement;

(ii) pay to the relevant authorities the full amount required to be deducted or withheld (including the full amount required to be deducted or withheld from any additional amount paid by X to Y under this Section 19) promptly upon the earlier of determining that such deduction or withholding is required or receiving notice that such amount has been assessed against Y;

(iii) promptly forward to Y an official receipt (or a certified copy), or other documentation reasonably acceptable to Y, evidencing such payment to such authorities; and

(iv) if such Tax is an Indemnifiable Tax, pay to Y, in addition to the payment to which Y is otherwise entitled under the Agreement, such additional amount as is necessary to ensure that the net amount actually received by Y (free and clear of Indemnifiable Taxes, whether assessed against X or Y) will equal the full amount Y would have received had no such deduction or withholding been required. However, X will not be required to pay any additional amount to Y to the extent that it would not be required to be paid but for the failure by Y to:

(A) deliver to X any forms, documents or certificates relating to taxation specified in the Agreement by the date specified in the Agreement, or if none is specified, as soon as reasonably practicable; or

(B) deliver to X or, in certain cases, to such government or taxation authority as X reasonably directs, upon reasonable demand by X, any other form or document that may be required or reasonably requested in writing in order to allow X or its Credit Support Provider to make a payment under the Agreement or any applicable Credit Support Document without any deduction or withholding for or on account of any Tax or with such deduction or withholding at a reduced rate (so long as the party in receipt of such demand is legally entitled to complete, execute and submit such form or document and the completion, execution or submission of such form or document would not materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such party), with any such form or document to be accurate and completed in a manner reasonably satisfactory to such other party and to be executed and to be delivered with any reasonably required certification as soon as reasonably practicable (clauses (A) and (B) collectively, the “Tax Requirements”).

(i) X is required by any applicable law, as modified by the practice of any relevant government or taxation authority, to make any deduction or withholding in respect of which X would not be required to pay an additional amount to Y under Section 19(b)(iv);

(ii) X does not so deduct or withhold; and

(iii) a liability resulting from such Tax is assessed directly against X;

then, except to the extent Y has satisfied (including by making a payment to X pursuant to Section 19(d)) or then satisfies the liability resulting from such Tax, Y will promptly pay to X the amount of such liability (including any related liability for interest, but including any related liability for penalties only if Y has failed to comply with or perform any Tax Requirement).

(d) For all purposes of this Section 19, the requirement that X remit any amount of Dividend Equivalent Tax (without regard to whether there is a payment under the Agreement from which to withhold or deduct such Tax) shall be treated as a requirement to withhold or deduct Tax with respect to a payment under the Agreement. If at any time, X is required to remit an amount of Dividend Equivalent Tax with respect to the Agreement, then without duplication for any amount that X has deducted on account of such Tax from any amount previously paid to Y pursuant to the Agreement, the amount so required to be remitted shall be payable by Y to X on the date payment is due under Section 871(m) of the Code. Upon the reasonable request of Y, X will supply to Y computations setting forth in reasonable detail computation of the amount of Dividend Equivalent Tax payable by Y to X pursuant to the preceding sentence.

(e) Notwithstanding Section 19(a) through (d), the Seller’s payment (if any) under Section 5(a)(i) or any return of Purchase Price, Excess Shares or Make-whole Excess Shares (as those terms are defined in the Cover Letter) by the Seller to the Company in connection with a cancellation of the Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby pursuant to the terms of the Cover Letter will be made without any deduction or withholding for or on account of any Tax other than a Designated Tax. If any liability resulting from any Tax other than a Designated Tax is assessed directly against the Seller in connection with such payment or return, then, except to the extent the Company has satisfied or then satisfies the liability, the Company will pay to the Seller an amount equal to the amount of such liability (including any related liability for interest and penalties). For the avoidance of doubt, if the Seller is required to deduct or withhold any Designated Tax from such payment or return, then this Section 19(e) will not apply and Section 19(a) through (d) will apply.
