Morgan

Securities LLC, RBC Capital Markets, LLC and Wells Fargo Securities, LLC (each, a “Forward Seller” and, collectively, the “Forward Sellers”). For purposes of clarity, it is understood and agreed by the parties hereto that, if Shares (as defined below) are offered or sold through any Forward Seller acting as forward seller for the applicable Forward Purchaser, then such Forward Seller shall be acting as sales agent for such Forward Purchaser with respect to the offering and sale of such Shares. The Company, the Agents, the Forward Purchasers and the Forward Sellers, severally and not jointly, agree as follows:

Introductory. The Company proposes, subject to the terms and conditions stated herein, to issue and/or sell from time to time shares (the “Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), (i) to or through the Agents, as sales agents for the Company and/or principal, or (ii) in one or more Forward Sales (as defined below) pursuant to the Master Confirmations (as defined below) entered into with the Forward Purchasers, in each case on the terms set forth in this Agreement and not to exceed an aggregate gross sales price of $500,000,000 (the “Maximum Program Amount”).

Forward Sales. The Company has entered into Master Confirmations, dated as of the date hereof, with each of the Forward Purchasers, a copy of the form of which is attached hereto as Exhibit A (collectively, the “Master Confirmations”). In connection with the applicable Master Confirmation and a Forward Sale, the relevant Forward Purchaser may instruct an affiliate thereof to borrow and sell Common Stock or engage in certain other hedging activities related thereto. Pursuant to the applicable Master Confirmation, subject to the terms and conditions herein and therein, the Company will deliver to the relevant Forward Purchaser, or an affiliate thereof (including the related Forward Seller), up to the number of Shares as may be sold as a Forward Sale in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. In connection therewith, the Company and the relevant Forward Purchaser understand that such Forward Purchaser or its affiliate, through the related Forward Seller, will effect sales of Shares not in excess of the Maximum Program Amount on the terms set forth in Section 2 of this Agreement.

Terms Agreements. The Company agrees that whenever (1) it determines to sell Shares directly to an Agent, acting as a principal, or (2) a Forward Purchaser or its affiliate sells to the related Forward Seller, acting as a principal, as part of a Forward Sale pursuant to the applicable Master Confirmation, the Company shall enter into a written terms agreement (a “Terms Agreement”) with the Agent and, in the case of a Forward Sale, the Forward Purchaser relating to such sale. Such Terms Agreement shall be in substantially the form of Schedule I hereto, in the case where an Agent is purchasing as a principal from the Company, or Schedule II hereto, in the case of any Terms Agreement entered into in connection with a Forward Sale. References herein to “this Agreement” or to matters contained “herein” or “hereunder,” or words of similar import, mean this Agreement and any applicable Terms Agreement.

Prior Agreements.

The Company previously entered an Equity Distribution Agreement with the Agents, Forward Purchasers and Forward Sellers and separate related Master Confirmations with each Forward Purchaser evidencing Forward Transactions, all of which are dated as of May 27, 2022 (each, a “Prior Agreement” and, collectively, the “Prior Agreements”), which Prior Agreements are hereby terminated by this Agreement and the Master Confirmations.

On the basis of the representations, warranties and agreements herein contained, but subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth, the Company, the Agents, the Forward Purchasers and the Forward Sellers agree that the Company may from time to time seek to sell Shares through a designated Agent, acting as sales agent (the “Designated Agent”), through a designated Forward Seller, acting as forward seller (the “Designated Forward Seller”) for the related Forward Purchaser (the “Designated Forward Purchaser”) or directly to any of the Agents or Forward Sellers acting as principal, as follows:

Section 1. Representations and Warranties of the Company. The Company represents and warrants to the Agents, the Forward Purchasers and the Forward Sellers that:

(a) Compliance with Registration Requirements. The Company has filed, in accordance with the provisions of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), and the rules and regulations thereunder (the “1933 Act Regulations”), with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) an “automatic shelf registration statement,” as defined in Rule 405 of the 1933 Act Regulations (“Rule 405”), on Form S-3 (File No. 333-285434), including a prospectus, to be used in connection with the public offering and sale of the Shares, which incorporates by reference documents that the Company has filed or will file in accordance with the provisions of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “1934 Act”), and the rules and regulations thereunder (the “1934 Act Regulations”), which registration statement became effective not earlier than three years on or prior to the date of this Agreement upon filing under Rule 462(e) of the 1933 Act Regulations.

Except where the context otherwise requires, the registration statement, as it may have heretofore been amended, including all documents filed as part thereof or incorporated by reference therein, and including any information contained in a Prospectus (as defined below) filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 430B of the 1933 Act Regulations (“Rule 430B”), and also including any other registration statement filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 462(b) or Rule 429 of the 1933 Act Regulations, is herein called the “Registration Statement”; the base prospectus filed as part of such Registration Statement, in the form in which it has most recently been filed with the Commission on or prior to the date of this Agreement, is herein called the “Base Prospectus”; the prospectus supplement dated March 7, 2025, specifically relating to the Shares prepared and filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the 1933 Act Regulations is herein called the “Prospectus Supplement”; and the Base Prospectus, as amended and supplemented from time to time by any Prospectus Supplements, is herein called the “Prospectus.” The Registration Statement at the time it originally became effective is herein called the “Original Registration Statement.” Any reference herein to the Registration Statement, the Base Prospectus, the Prospectus Supplement or the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto shall be deemed to refer to and include the documents incorporated by reference therein as of the Applicable Time (as defined below), and any reference herein to the terms “amend,” “amendment” or “supplement” with respect to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus shall be deemed to refer to and include the filing after the execution hereof with the Commission of any post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement, any Prospectus Supplement and any document deemed to be incorporated by reference therein prior to the Applicable Time relating to the particular Shares. As used in this subsection and elsewhere in this Agreement, “Applicable Time” means the time of each sale of any Shares pursuant to this Agreement.

3

To the extent that the Registration Statement is not available for the sales of the Shares as contemplated by this Agreement or the Company is not a “well-known seasoned issuer” as defined in Rule 405 or otherwise is unable to make the representations set forth in Section 1(b) at any time when such representations are required, the Company shall file a new registration statement with respect to any additional shares of Common Stock necessary to complete such sales of the Shares and shall cause such registration statement to become effective as promptly as practicable. After the effectiveness of any such registration statement, all references to “Registration Statement” included in this Agreement shall be deemed to include such new registration statement, including all documents filed as part thereof or incorporated therein by reference, and all references to “Prospectus” included in this Agreement shall be deemed to include the final form of prospectus, including all documents incorporated therein by reference, included in any such registration statement, as amended or supplemented from time to time (including by any prospectus supplement thereto). For purposes of this Agreement, all references to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or to any amendment or supplement thereto shall be deemed to include any copy filed with the Commission pursuant to its Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval (“EDGAR”) system, and such copy shall be identical in content to any Prospectus delivered to the Agents and Forward Sellers for use in connection with the offering of the Shares.

(b) Well-Known Seasoned Issuer. (1) At the time of filing of the Original Registration Statement, (2) at the time of the most recent amendment thereto for the purposes of complying with Section 10(a)(3) of the 1933 Act or otherwise (whether such amendment was by post-effective amendment, incorporated report filed pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the 1934 Act or form of prospectus), (3) at the time the Company or any person acting on its behalf (within the meaning, for this clause only, of Rule 163(c) of the 1933 Act Regulations) made any offer relating to the Shares in reliance on the exemption of Rule 163 of the 1933 Act Regulations, (4) at the earliest time after the filing of the Original Registration Statement that a bona fide offer (within the meaning of Rule 164(h)(2) of the 1933 Act Regulations) of the Shares was made, and (5) at the date hereof, the Company was and is a “well-known seasoned issuer” as defined in Rule 405. The Registration Statement is an “automatic shelf registration statement,” as defined in Rule 405, and the Shares, since their registration on the Registration Statement, have been and remain eligible for registration by the Company on a Rule 405 “automatic shelf registration statement.” The Company has not received from the Commission any notice pursuant to Rule 401(g)(2) of the 1933 Act Regulations objecting to the use of the automatic shelf registration statement form.

(c) S-3 Eligibility. The Company meets, and at the time of filing of the Original Registration Statement met, the requirements for use of Form S-3 under the 1933 Act. The Registration Statement has been filed with the Commission and is effective under the 1933 Act. The Company has not received, and has no notice of, any order of the Commission preventing or suspending the use or effectiveness of the Registration Statement, or threatening or instituting proceedings for that purpose. Any statutes, regulations, contracts or other documents that are required to be described in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or to be filed as exhibits to the Registration Statement have been so described or filed. Copies of the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, any such amendments or supplements and all documents incorporated by reference therein that were filed with the Commission on or prior to the date of this Agreement (including one fully executed copy of each of the Registration Statement and of

4

each amendment thereto for each Agent and each Forward Seller) have been delivered to the Agents, the Forward Sellers and their counsel. The Company has not distributed any offering material in connection with the offering or sale of the Shares other than the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or any other materials, if any, permitted by the 1933 Act and the 1933 Act Regulations and reviewed and consented to by the Agents.

(d) Form Compliance; No Material Misstatement or Omission of a Material Fact. Each of the Registration Statement, any post-effective amendment thereto, the Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto conforms, and when it became effective or was filed with the Commission conformed, in all material respects with the requirements of the 1933 Act and the 1933 Act Regulations. The Registration Statement and any post-effective amendment thereto, when it became effective or was filed with the Commission, did not, and each such part, as amended or supplemented, if applicable, as of each Settlement Date (as defined herein), will not, contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading. The Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto does not, and on the date of filing thereof with the Commission did not, and, at each Settlement Date, will not, include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, except that the foregoing shall not apply to statements in, or omissions from, any such document in reliance upon, and in conformity with, the Agent Information (as defined below).

(e) Issuer Free Writing Prospectuses. Any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus(es) (as defined below) and the Prospectus, as amended or supplemented, all considered together (collectively, the “General Disclosure Package”), do not include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading as of each Applicable Time and, as then amended or supplemented by the Company, if applicable, at each Settlement Date.

As used in this subsection and elsewhere in this Agreement, “Issuer Free Writing Prospectus” means any “issuer free writing prospectus,” as defined in Rule 433 of the 1933 Act Regulations (“Rule 433”), relating to the Shares, in the form filed or required to be filed with the Commission or, if not required to be filed, in the form retained in the Company’s records pursuant to Rule 433(g).

Each Issuer Free Writing Prospectus does not, and as of its issue date and all subsequent times did not, include any information that conflicts or conflicted with the information contained in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, including any document incorporated by reference therein, and any preliminary or other prospectus deemed to be a part thereof that has not been superseded or modified.

The representations and warranties in this Section 1(e) shall not apply to statements in or omissions from the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto, or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus made in reliance upon and in conformity with the Agent Information.

(f) Incorporation of Documents by Reference. The documents incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus comply, and at the time they were filed with the Commission complied, in all material respects with the requirements of the 1934 Act and the 1934 Act Regulations, and, when read together with the other information in the Prospectus, do not, and at the time the Original Registration Statement became effective and at the date of the Prospectus did not, contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

No other financial statements are required to be set forth in or incorporated by reference into the Registration Statement or the Prospectus under the 1933 Act or the 1933 Act Regulations. As used in this subsection and elsewhere in this Agreement, “subsidiary” has the meaning set forth in Rule 405.

The description of the Master Confirmations set forth in the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus is correct in all material respects.

9

Instruments (except for such conflicts, breaches or defaults or liens, charges or encumbrances that would not result in a Material Adverse Effect), nor will such action result in any violation of the provisions of the charter or by-laws or other constituting or organizational instrument as in effect on the date hereof of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company or any applicable law, statute, rule, regulation, judgment, order, writ or decree of any government, government instrumentality or court, domestic or foreign, having jurisdiction over the Company or any subsidiary of the Company or any of their assets, properties or operations, except for any such violation of any applicable law, statute, rule, regulation, judgment, order, writ or decree of law which would not result in a Material Adverse Effect. As used herein, a “Repayment Event” means any event or condition which gives the holder of any note, debenture or other evidence of indebtedness (or any person acting on such holder’s behalf) the right to require the repurchase, redemption or repayment of all or a portion of such indebtedness by the Company or any subsidiary of the Company.

(r) Absence of Proceedings. Except as disclosed in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, there is no action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation before or brought by any court or governmental agency or body, domestic or foreign, now pending, or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened, against or affecting the Company or any subsidiary of the Company, which, singly or in the aggregate, would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, or which would reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect the consummation of the transactions contemplated in this Agreement or the performance by the Company of its obligations hereunder.

(s) Accuracy of Descriptions. All of the descriptions of contracts or other documents contained or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus are accurate and complete descriptions in all material respects of such contracts or other documents.

(t) Absence of Further Requirements. No filing with, or authorization, approval, consent, license, order, registration, qualification or decree of, any court or governmental authority or agency is necessary or required for the performance by the Company of its obligations hereunder or under the Master Confirmations or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or for the due execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement and the Master Confirmations, except such as have been already obtained or as may be required under the 1933 Act or the 1933 Act Regulations or state securities laws.

(u) Possession of Licenses and Permits. The Company and its subsidiaries possess such permits, licenses, approvals, consents and other authorizations (collectively, “Governmental Licenses”) issued by the appropriate federal, state, local or foreign regulatory agencies or bodies necessary to conduct the business now operated by them; the Company and its subsidiaries are in compliance with the terms and conditions of all such Governmental Licenses, except in any such case where the failure to so possess or to comply would not, singly or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect; all of the Governmental Licenses are valid and in full force and effect, except where the invalidity of such Governmental Licenses or the failure of such Governmental Licenses to be in full force and effect would not have a Material Adverse Effect; and neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries has received any notice of proceedings relating to the revocation or modification of any such Governmental Licenses which, singly or in the aggregate, if the subject of an unfavorable decision, ruling or finding, would result in a Material Adverse Effect.

10

(v) Title to Property. The Company and its subsidiaries have good and marketable title to all real property owned by the Company and its subsidiaries and good title to all other properties owned by them, in each case, free and clear of all mortgages, pledges, liens, security interests, claims, restrictions or encumbrances of any kind except such as (a) are described in the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus or (b) would not, singly or in the aggregate, result in a Material Adverse Effect; and all of the leases and subleases material to the business of the Company and its subsidiaries, considered as one enterprise, and under which the Company or any of its subsidiaries holds properties described in the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, are in full force and effect, and neither the Company nor any subsidiary of the Company has any notice of any material claim of any sort that has been asserted by anyone adverse to the rights of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company under any of the leases or subleases mentioned above, or affecting or questioning the rights of the Company or such subsidiary to the continued possession of the leased or subleased premises under any such lease or sublease.

The Company is not required to be registered, licensed or qualified as an investment adviser or broker-dealer under the laws requiring any such registration, licensing or qualification in any jurisdiction in which it or its subsidiaries conduct business. Each of the subsidiaries has been duly registered as an investment adviser under the Advisers Act, and has been duly registered as a broker-dealer under the 1934 Act, and each such registration is in full force and effect, in each case to the extent such registration is required and with such exceptions as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Each subsidiary of the Company which is required to be registered as a broker-dealer is a member in good standing of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”). No subsidiary of the Company which is required to be registered as an investment adviser or broker-dealer is in default with respect to any judgment, order, writ, injunction, decree, demand or assessment issued by any court or any foreign, federal, state, municipal or other governmental agency, board, commission, bureau, instrumentality or department, domestic or foreign, or by any self-regulatory authority relating to any aspect of its investment advisory or broker-dealer business, which would need to be disclosed pursuant to Rule 206(4)-4(b) under the Advisers Act, or which is reasonably likely to give rise to an affirmative answer to any of the questions in Item 11, Part 1 of the Form ADV of such registered investment adviser or which is reasonably likely to give rise to an affirmative answer to any of the questions in Item 7 of the Form BD of such broker-dealer.

(z) Investment Company Mutual Funds. Each mutual fund of which a subsidiary of the Company serves as the investment advisor (a “Mutual Fund”) has been since inception, is currently and will be immediately after consummation of the transactions contemplated herein, a duly registered investment company in compliance with the 1940 Act, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, except where any failure to be duly registered, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Since their initial offering, shares of each of the Mutual Funds have been duly qualified for sale under the securities laws of each jurisdiction in which they have been sold or offered for sale at such time or times during which such qualification was required, and, if not so qualified, the failure to so qualify would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The offering and sale of shares of each of the Mutual Funds have been registered under the 1933 Act during such period or periods for which such registration is required; the related registration statement has become effective under the 1933 Act; no stop order suspending the effectiveness of any such registration statement has been issued and no proceedings for that purpose have been instituted or, to the best knowledge of the Company, are contemplated. Except to the extent that such failure to comply, misstatement or omission, as the case may be, would not reasonably be likely to result in a Material Adverse Effect, the registration statement of each Mutual Fund, together with the amendments and supplements thereto, under the 1940 Act and the 1933 Act has, at all times when such registration statement was effective, complied in all material respects with the requirements of the 1940 Act and the 1933 Act then in effect and neither such registration statement nor any amendments or supplements thereto contained, at the time and in the light of the circumstances in which they were made, an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, at the time and in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. All shares of each of the Mutual Funds were sold pursuant to an effective registration statement, or pursuant to a valid exemption from registration, and have been duly authorized and are validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. Each of the Mutual Funds’ investments has been made in accordance with its investment policies and restrictions set forth in its registration statement in effect at the time the investments were made and have been held in accordance with its respective investment policies and restrictions, to the extent applicable and in effect at the time such investments were held, except to the extent any failure to comply with such policies and restrictions, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

12

(aa) Investment Advisory Agreements. The Company is not a party as an investment advisor or distributor to any investment advisory agreement or distribution agreement and is not serving or acting as an investment adviser to any person. Each of the investment advisory agreements to which any of its subsidiaries is a party is a legal and valid obligation of such subsidiary and complies with the applicable requirements of the Advisers Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder, except where the failure to so comply would not individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Each of the investment advisory agreements and distribution agreements between a subsidiary of the Company and a Mutual Fund is a legal and valid obligation of such subsidiary and complies with the applicable requirements of the 1940 Act, and in the case of such distribution agreements, with the applicable requirements of the 1934 Act, except where the failure to so comply would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No investment advisory agreement or distribution agreement to which any of the subsidiaries is a party that was either in effect on January 1, 2022, or entered into by a subsidiary of the Company since January 1, 2022, has been terminated or expired, except where any such termination or expiration would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. None of such subsidiaries is in breach or violation of or in default under any such investment advisory agreement or distribution agreement, with such exceptions individually or in the aggregate as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No subsidiary of the Company is serving or acting as an investment adviser to any person except pursuant to an agreement to which such subsidiary is a party and which is in full force and effect, other than any agreement the non-existence of which would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The consummation of the transaction contemplated herein will not constitute an “assignment,” as such term is defined in the Advisers Act and the 1934 Act, of an investment advisory agreement.

(bb) No Fiduciary Duties. The Company acknowledges and agrees that (i) the sale of the Shares pursuant to this Agreement is an arm’s-length commercial transaction among the Company, on the one hand, and each of the Agents, the Forward Purchasers and the Forward Sellers (as applicable), on the other hand, (ii) in connection with the Forward Sales contemplated hereby and the process leading to such transaction(s), the Forward Sellers are acting as agents for the Forward Purchasers in connection with sales of the Shares sold on behalf of the Forward Purchasers and neither the Agents, nor Forward Purchasers, nor the Forward Sellers nor any of their affiliates is an agent or fiduciary of the Company, or its stockholders, creditors, employees or any other party, (iii) the Agents, the Forward Purchasers and the Forward Sellers have not assumed and will not assume an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of the Company with respect to the offering contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether an Agent, a Forward Purchaser or a Forward Seller has advised or is currently advising the Company on other matters) and the Agents, the Forward Purchasers and the Forward Sellers have no obligation to the Company with respect to the offering contemplated hereby except the obligations expressly set forth in this Agreement, (iv) the Agents, the Forward Purchasers, the Forward Sellers and their affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Company and (v) the Agents, the Forward Purchasers and the Forward Sellers have not provided any legal, accounting, regulatory or tax advice with respect to the offering contemplated hereby and the Company has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate.

13

(cc) Internal Control over Financial Reporting. The Company maintains a system of internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the 1934 Act Regulations) that complies with the requirements of the 1934 Act and the 1934 Act Regulations and that has been designed by the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, or under their supervision, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting, the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and the interactive data in eXtensible Business Reporting Language included or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is effective and the Company is not aware of any material weaknesses in its internal control over financial reporting. Since the date of the latest audited financial statements included or incorporated by reference in the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, there has been no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

(dd) eXtensible Business Reporting Language. The interactive data in eXtensible Business Reporting Language included or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement fairly presents the information called for in all material respects and has been prepared in accordance with the Commission’s rules and guidelines applicable thereto.

(ee) Disclosure Controls and Procedures. The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the 1934 Act Regulations) that comply with the requirements of the 1934 Act and the 1934 Act Regulations; such disclosure controls and procedures have been designed to ensure that material information relating to the Company and its subsidiaries is made known to the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer by others within those entities; and such disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

(ff) No Stop Order or Cease-and-Desist Proceeding. The Registration Statement is not the subject of a pending proceeding or examination under Section 8(d) or 8(e) of the 1933 Act, and the Company is not the subject of a pending proceeding under Section 8A of the 1933 Act in connection with the offering of the Shares.

(gg) Actively-Traded Security. The Common Stock is an “actively traded security” exempted from the requirements of Rule 101 of Regulation M under the 1934 Act by subsection (c)(1) of such rule.

(hh) No Other At-The-Market Offerings. Except as otherwise disclosed in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, the Company has not entered into any other sales agency agreements or other similar arrangements with any agent or any other representative in respect of at the market offerings of the Shares in accordance with Rule 415(a)(4) of the 1933 Act Regulations.

(ii) No Stabilization or Manipulation. The Company has not taken, directly or indirectly, any action designed to or that would be reasonably expected to cause or result in stabilization or manipulation of the price of any security of the Company to facilitate the sale or resale of the Shares.

14

(jj) No Commissions. There is no broker, finder or other party that is entitled to receive from the Company any brokerage or finder’s fee or other fee or commission as a result of any transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(kk) No Unlawful Payments. Neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries nor, to the knowledge of the Company, any director, officer, agent, employee or other person associated with or acting on behalf of the Company or any of its subsidiaries has (i) used any corporate funds of the Company or any of its subsidiaries for any unlawful contribution, gift, entertainment or other unlawful expense relating to political activity; (ii) made any direct or indirect unlawful payment to any foreign or domestic government official or employee from corporate funds of the Company or any of its subsidiaries; (iii) violated or is in violation of any provision of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977 relating to activities of the Company or any of its subsidiaries; or (iv) made any bribe, rebate, payoff, influence payment, kickback or other unlawful payment on behalf of the Company or any of its subsidiaries.

(ll) Compliance with Money Laundering Laws. The operations of the Company and its subsidiaries are and have been conducted at all times in compliance with applicable financial recordkeeping and reporting requirements of the Currency and Foreign Transactions Reporting Act of 1970, as amended, the money laundering statutes of all jurisdictions, the rules and regulations thereunder and any related or similar rules, regulations or guidelines, issued, administered or enforced by any governmental agency (collectively, the “Money Laundering Laws”), and no action, suit or proceeding by or before any court or governmental agency, authority or body or any arbitrator involving the Company or any of its subsidiaries with respect to the Money Laundering Laws is pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened.

(mm) Compliance with OFAC. None of the Company, any of its subsidiaries or, to the knowledge of the Company, any director, officer, agent, employee or affiliate of the Company or any of its subsidiaries is currently subject to any U.S. sanctions administered by the Office of Foreign Assets Control of the U.S. Department of the Treasury (“OFAC”); and the Company will not directly or indirectly use the proceeds of the offering of the Securities hereunder, or lend, contribute or otherwise make available such proceeds to any subsidiary, joint venture partner or other person or entity, for the purpose of financing the activities of any person currently subject to any U.S. sanctions administered by OFAC.

(nn) Cybersecurity. Except as would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect (i) to the knowledge of the Company, there has been no security breach or incident, unauthorized access or disclosure, or other compromise of or relating to the Company’s or its subsidiaries’ information technology and computer systems, networks, hardware, software, data and databases (including the data and information of their respective customers, employees, suppliers, vendors and any third party data maintained, processed or stored by the Company or its subsidiaries, and any such data processed or stored by third parties on behalf of the Company or its subsidiaries), equipment or technology (collectively, “IT Systems and Data”); (ii) neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries has been notified of, and has no knowledge of any event or condition that would result in, any security breach or incident, unauthorized access or disclosure or other compromise to their IT Systems and Data and (iii) the Company and its subsidiaries have implemented appropriate

controls, policies, procedures, and technological safeguards to maintain and protect the integrity, continuous operation, redundancy and security of their IT Systems and Data reasonably consistent with industry standards and practices, or as required by applicable regulatory standards. The Company and its subsidiaries are presently in compliance in all material respects with all applicable laws or statutes and all judgments, orders, rules and regulations of any court or arbitrator or governmental or regulatory authority, internal policies and contractual obligations relating to the privacy and security of IT Systems and Data and to the protection of such IT Systems and Data from unauthorized use, access, misappropriation or modification.

(oo) Deemed Representation. Any certificate signed by any officer of the Company delivered to the Agents, the Forward Purchasers or the Forward Sellers, or to their counsel, pursuant to or in connection with this Agreement shall be deemed a representation and warranty by the Company to the Agents, the Forward Purchasers or the Forward Sellers as to the matters covered thereby.

Section 2. Sale and Delivery of Shares.

(a) (i) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Company may issue and sell Shares through the Designated Agent, acting as sales agent for the Company, or directly to such Agent, acting as principal, from time to time (any such sale, a “Direct Sale”).

(ii) In addition, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Company may, from time to time, in consultation with the Designated Forward Purchaser and the Designated Forward Seller, request that such Forward Purchaser or its affiliate to borrow, offer and sell Shares to or through such Designated Forward Seller, acting as forward seller (any such sale, a “Forward Sale”).

(b) The Shares are to be sold on a daily basis or otherwise as shall be agreed to by the Company, the Designated Agent, the Designated Forward Purchaser and the Designated Forward Seller, as the case may be, on any day that is a trading day for the NYSE (other than a day on which the NYSE is scheduled to close prior to its regular weekday closing time, each, a “Trading Day”) that the Company has satisfied its obligations under Section 4 of this Agreement and that the Designated Agent or the Designated Forward Seller has agreed to make such sales. On any Trading Day, the Company, in consultation with the Designated Agent, or the Designated Forward Purchaser and the Designated Forward Seller, as the case may be, may request by telephone (confirmed promptly by telecopy or email, which confirmation shall contain the mutually agreed upon terms for the sales and such confirmation shall be promptly acknowledged by the Designated Agent or Designated Forward Purchaser and the Designated Forward Seller, as the case may be) (together, the “Instruction”) as to (i) the maximum amount of Shares to be sold by the Designated Agent or the Designated Forward Seller on such day (in any event not in excess of the amount then available for sale under the Prospectus and the currently effective Registration Statement), (ii) the minimum price per Share at which such Shares may be sold, (iii) whether the sale of such Shares will be a Direct Sale or a Forward Sale, and (iv) in the case of a Forward Sale, any terms, provisions or information that is required or contemplated by the applicable Master Confirmation (including, without limitation, any Forward Price Reduction Dates and related Forward Price Reduction Amounts, any Discount to the Initial Forward Price (as defined in the applicable Master Confirmation), the proposed Trade Date (as

16

defined in the applicable Master Confirmation) and the proposed Hedge Completion Date (as defined in and contemplated by the applicable Master Confirmation). The Designated Forward Purchaser and the Designated Forward Seller may accept the terms in the Instruction or propose alternative terms, which the Company may accept or further amend.

(i) Once the applicable parties have agreed to an Instruction and subject to the terms and conditions hereof, when acting as sales agent, the Designated Forward Seller or the Designated Agent, as applicable, shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to sell for the Designated Forward Purchaser or its affiliate (in the case of a Forward Sale) or for the Company (in the case of a Direct Sale) all of the Shares so designated and in the manner contemplated by the General Disclosure Package.

(ii) The Company acknowledges and agrees that (A) there can be no assurance that the Designated Agent or the Designated Forward Seller will be successful in selling the Shares or that the Designated Forward Purchaser or any of its affiliates will be successful in borrowing any Shares, (B) the Designated Agent and the Designated Forward Seller will incur no liability or obligation to the Company, the Designated Forward Purchaser or any other person or entity if it does not sell Shares for any reason other than its failure to use its commercially reasonable efforts consistent with its normal trading and sales practices and applicable law and regulations to sell such Shares as required by this Agreement, and (C) the Designated Agent and the Designated Forward Seller shall be under no obligation to purchase Shares on a principal basis, except as expressly agreed in a Terms Agreement.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not authorize the sale of, and the Designated Agents and the Designated Forward Sellers shall not be obligated to use their commercially reasonable efforts to sell, any Shares (i) at a price lower than the minimum price therefor authorized from time to time or (ii) having an aggregate offering price in excess of the aggregate offering price of Shares authorized from time to time to be issued and sold under this Agreement, in each case, by the Company’s board of directors, or a duly authorized committee thereof, and notified to the parties hereto in writing. In addition, the parties hereto may, upon notice to the other parties hereto by telephone (confirmed promptly by telecopy or email, which confirmation will be promptly acknowledged), suspend the offering of the Shares for any reason and at any time; provided, however, that such suspension shall not affect or impair the parties’ respective obligations with respect to the Shares sold hereunder prior to the giving of such notice. Under no circumstances shall the aggregate offering price of Shares sold pursuant to this Agreement exceed the Maximum Program Amount or the aggregate offering price of Common Stock available for sale under the currently effective Registration Statement. Notwithstanding any of the provisions of this Agreement, if in the event of any Forward Sale either (i) the Designated Forward Purchaser or its affiliate is unable to borrow and deliver any Shares for sale under this Agreement or (ii) in the sole judgment of the Designated Forward Purchaser or its affiliate, it is either impracticable to do so or the Designated Forward Purchaser or its affiliate would incur a stock loan cost that is equal to or greater than 75 basis points per annum to do so, then the Designated Forward Seller shall only be required to sell on behalf of the Designated Forward Purchaser or its affiliate the aggregate number of Shares that the Designated Forward Purchaser or its affiliate is able to, and that it is practicable to, so borrow below such cost.

17

(d) The Company agrees that any offer to sell, any solicitation of an offer to buy, or any sales of Shares pursuant to this Agreement shall be effected by or through only one Designated Agent or Designated Forward Seller on any single day, but in no event by more than one, and the Company shall in no event request that more than one Designated Agent or Designated Forward Seller sell Shares on the same day.

(e) If any party reasonably believes that the exemptive provisions set forth in Rule 101(c)(1) of Regulation M under the 1934 Act are not satisfied with respect to the Company or the Shares, it shall promptly notify the other party or parties and sales of Shares under this Agreement shall be suspended until that or other exemptive provisions have been satisfied in the judgment of each party.

(f) The Shares, when sold through an Agent or a Forward Seller, as a sales agent, may be offered and sold in (1) privately negotiated transactions (if and only if the parties hereto have so agreed in writing), or (2) by any other method deemed to be an “at the market” offering as defined in Rule 415 of the Securities Act, including sales made directly on the NYSE or sales made to or through a market maker or through an electronic communications network. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to require any party to agree to the method of offer and sale specified in clause (1) above, and any party may withhold its consent thereto in such party’s sole discretion.

(g) The gross sales price of any Shares sold pursuant to this Agreement shall be the market or other price agreed to by the Company, the Designated Agent, the Designated Forward Purchaser and the Designated Forward Seller, as the case may be, for Shares sold by the Designated Agent or the Designated Forward Seller under this Agreement at the time of such sale, or as otherwise provided in an applicable Terms Agreement (the “Gross Proceeds”). The compensation payable to a Designated Agent for sales of Shares in connection with any Direct Sale shall be up to 2.00% of the gross sales price for such Shares, as mutually agreed to in writing by the Company and the Agent (the “Direct Sale Compensation”). The compensation payable to a Designated Forward Seller for sales of Shares in connection with any Forward Sale shall be the difference between the Gross Proceeds and the amount payable by the Designated Forward Purchaser to the Company under the applicable Master Confirmation, assuming full physical settlement of the applicable Master Confirmation based on the Initial Forward Price. The amount payable (i) by the Designated Agent to the Company in connection with any Direct Sale shall be the Gross Proceeds less the Direct Sale Compensation or (ii) by the Designated Forward Purchaser to the Company in connection with any Forward Sale shall be determined pursuant to the applicable Master Confirmation and the Instruction or the Terms Agreement, as the case may be, assuming full physical settlement of the applicable Master Confirmation based on the Initial Forward Price, subject to the price adjustment and other provisions of the applicable Master Confirmation, and shall constitute the net proceeds to the Company for such sales (in each case, the “Net Proceeds”).

(h) The Designated Agent or the Designated Forward Seller, as the case may be, shall provide written confirmation (which may be by telecopy or email) to the Company following the close of trading on the NYSE each day on which Shares are sold under this Agreement setting forth the number of Shares sold on such day, the price or prices at which such Shares were sold on such day, the aggregate Gross Proceeds of the Shares, the Net Proceeds to the Company and the compensation payable by the Company to the Designated Agent with respect to such sales.

18

(i) Settlement for sales of Shares pursuant to this Section 2 will occur on the first business day that is also a Trading Day following the trade date on which such sales are made, unless another date shall be agreed to by the parties hereto (each such day, a “Settlement Date”). On each Settlement Date for any Direct Sale (each such day, a “Direct Settlement Date”), such Shares (the “Direct Settlement Shares”) shall be delivered by the Company to the Designated Agent in book-entry form to the Designated Agent’s account at The Depository Trust Company against payment by the Designated Agent of the Net Proceeds from the sale of such Shares in same day funds delivered to an account designated by the Company. On each Settlement Date for any Forward Sale, the Shares sold through such Designated Forward Seller for settlement on such date shall be delivered by the Designated Forward Purchaser or its affiliate to the Designated Forward Seller. If the Company shall default on its obligation to deliver Shares through the Designated Agent as sales agent on any Direct Settlement Date, the Company shall (i) indemnify and hold the Designated Agent harmless against any loss, claim or damage arising from or as a result of such default by the Company and (ii) pay the Designated Agent any commission to which it would otherwise be entitled absent such default.

(j) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the parties hereto agree that no sales of Shares shall take place, and the Company shall not request the sale of any Shares that would be sold, and the Designated Agent or the Designated Forward Seller, as the case may be, shall not be obligated to sell, (A) during any period starting on the tenth day of each fiscal quarter of the Company and ending on the day on which the Company’s insider trading policy, as then in existence, does not prohibit the purchases or sales of Common Stock by the Company’s officers or directors (except to the extent that the Company is not in possession of material non-public information during the first five days of such period), (B) during any other period in which the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, or (C) during any period in which the Company is in possession of material non-public information.

(k) At each Applicable Time and on each Settlement Date, each date the Registration Statement or the Prospectus shall be amended or supplemented (other than a prospectus supplement to the Prospectus included as part of the Registration Statement filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the 1933 Act Regulations relating solely to the offering of securities other than the Shares) (a “Registration Statement Amendment Date”) and each date the Company files an Annual Report on Form 10-K or a Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or an amendment to any such document (a “Company Periodic Report Date”), the Company shall be deemed to have affirmed each representation and warranty (except for the representation and warranty in Section 1(l) hereof, which the Company shall be deemed to have affirmed only at each Company Periodic Report Date) and its compliance with each covenant and other agreement contained in this Agreement (unless the Company shall have notified the applicable parties hereto to the contrary in writing). The Company shall cause a senior corporate officer of the Company from time to time designated by the Company (which senior corporate officer shall initially be a senior corporate officer holding one of the offices specified in Exhibit B hereto) to

19

respond via e-mail to a communication from the applicable parties in the form set forth in Exhibit B hereto when, during the term of this Agreement, the Company shall have received such a communication. Any obligation of the Designated Forward Seller or the Designated Agent to use its commercially reasonable efforts to sell the Shares on behalf of the Designated Forward Purchaser or its affiliate or the Company, as applicable, shall be subject to, as determined in the reasonable discretion of the Designated Forward Seller or the Designated Agent, the continuing accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Company, the compliance by the Company with each covenant contained herein, the performance by the Company of its obligations hereunder and the continuing satisfaction of the additional conditions specified in Section 4 of this Agreement.

(l) The Designated Forward Seller and the Designated Agent shall not have any obligation to purchase Shares as principal, whether from the Company or otherwise, unless the parties hereto agree as set forth below. Shares purchased from the Company by the Designated Agent, as principal, shall be purchased in accordance with terms agreed upon between the Designated Agent and the Company as evidenced by a Terms Agreement. The Designated Agent’s commitment to purchase Shares from the Company as principal shall be deemed to have been made on the basis of the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Company, and performance by the Company of its covenants and other obligations, herein contained and shall be subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth. At the time of each Terms Agreement, the Designated Agent or the Designated Forward Seller shall specify the requirements, if any, for the officers’ certificate, opinions and letters of counsel and accountants’ letter pursuant to Sections 4(c), 4(d), 4(e) and 4(f) hereof. In the event of a conflict between the terms of this Agreement and a Terms Agreement, the terms of such Terms Agreement shall control.

Section 3. Covenants of the Company. The Company hereby covenants and agrees with the Agents, the Forward Purchasers and the Forward Sellers that:

(a) During the period beginning on the date hereof and ending on the date, as determined in the reasonable discretion of the Agents, the Forward Purchasers and the Forward Sellers, that a prospectus is no longer required by law to be delivered in connection with the offering or sales of the Shares by an Agent, a Forward Seller or any dealer (whether physically or through compliance with Rule 153 or 172 of the 1933 Act Regulations, or in lieu thereof, a notice referred to in Rule 173(a) of the 1933 Act Regulations) (the “Prospectus Delivery Period”):

(i) the Company will notify the Agents, the Forward Purchasers and the Forward Sellers promptly in writing of the time when any subsequent amendment to the Registration Statement has become effective or any amendment to the Registration Statement or any subsequent supplement to the Prospectus has been filed;

(ii) the Company will prepare and file with the Commission any material required to be filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 433(d) of the 1933 Act Regulations and any amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus that, in the reasonable judgment of the Company, may be necessary or advisable in connection with the offering of the Shares by an Agent or a Forward Seller;

20

(iii) the Company will comply with Rule 430B; provided, however, that the Company will not file any amendment to the Registration Statement or supplement to the Prospectus with respect to the Shares unless a copy thereof has been submitted to the Agents, the Forward Purchasers and the Forward Sellers a reasonable period of time before filing with the Commission or if the Agents, the Forward Purchasers and the Forward Sellers reasonably object to such filing in writing, in each case excluding an amendment by incorporated report filed pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the 1934 Act;

(iv) the Company will file promptly all reports and any definitive proxy or information statements required to be filed by the Company with the Commission pursuant to Section 13, 14 or 15 of the 1934 Act and will advise the Agents, the Forward Purchasers and the Forward Sellers of any such filing;

(v) the Company will furnish to the Agents, the Forward Purchasers and the Forward Sellers at the time of filing thereof, a copy of any document that upon filing is deemed to be incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus; and

(vi) the Company will cause each amendment or supplement to the Prospectus to be filed with the Commission as required pursuant to the applicable paragraph of Rule 424(b) of the 1933 Act Regulations or, in the case of any document to be incorporated therein by reference, to be filed with the Commission as required pursuant to the 1934 Act, within the prescribed time period; in connection with a Terms Agreement, the Company will prepare and file with the Commission, a pricing supplement with respect to the offer and sale of Shares covered by such Terms Agreement. The Company will effect all filings required under Rule 424(b), in the manner and within the time period required by Rule 424(b) (without reliance on Rule 424(b)(8)), and will take such steps as it deems necessary to ascertain promptly whether the form of prospectus transmitted for filing under Rule 424(b) was received for filing by the Commission and, in the event that it was not, it will promptly file such prospectus.

(b) The Company shall pay the required Commission filing fees relating to the Shares within the time required by Rule 456(b)(1)(i) of the 1933 Act Regulations without regard to the proviso therein and otherwise in accordance with Rules 456(b) and 457(r) of the 1933 Act Regulations.

(c) To the extent the Company requests that an Agent or a Forward Seller effect sales of Shares pursuant to this Agreement, the Company will advise the Agents, the Forward Purchasers and the Forward Sellers (through notice provided to Sidley Austin LLP, or other counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Agents, the Forward Purchasers and the Forward Sellers) of the receipt of any comments of or request by the Commission for any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, including the documents incorporated by reference therein, or for additional or supplemental information with respect thereto or of notice of institution of proceedings for the entry of a stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement by the Commission or of any examination pursuant to Section 8(e) of the 1933 Act concerning the Registration Statement or of any order or notice

21

preventing or suspending the use of the Registration Statement, any preliminary prospectus or the Prospectus, or of any proceedings to remove, suspend or terminate from listing or quotation the Common Stock from any securities exchange upon which it is listed for trading or included or designated for quotation, or of the threatening or initiation of any proceedings for any of such purposes, which comments, requests, orders, notices or proceedings have been received, threatened or initiated since the last time the Company requested that an Agent or a Forward Seller effect sales of Shares pursuant to this Agreement. The Company shall use its best efforts to prevent the issuance of any such stop order or notice of prevention or suspension of such use. If the Commission shall enter any such stop order or issue any such notice at any time, the Company will use its best efforts to obtain the lifting or reversal of such order or notice at the earliest possible moment, or will file an amendment to the Registration Statement or a new registration statement in a form satisfactory to the Agents, the Forward Purchasers and the Forward Sellers and use its best efforts to have such amendment or new registration statement become effective as soon as practicable.

(d) The Company will make available to the Agents, the Forward Purchasers and the Forward Sellers and from time to time furnish to the Agents, the Forward Purchasers and the Forward Sellers at the Company’s expense, copies of the Prospectus (or the Prospectus as amended or supplemented if the Company shall have made any amendments or supplements thereto after the effective date of the Registration Statement) in such quantities and at such locations as the Agents, the Forward Purchasers and the Forward Sellers may reasonably request for the purposes contemplated by the 1933 Act.

(e) The Company will promptly notify the Designated Agent, the Designated Forward Purchaser and the Designated Forward Seller, as the case may be, to suspend the offering of Shares (i) when the Company is in possession of material non-public information and (ii) upon the happening of any event known to the Company during the Prospectus Delivery Period or otherwise prior to the final Settlement Date which, in the reasonable judgment of the Company, would require the making of any change in the Registration Statement or in the Prospectus then being used, or in the information incorporated by reference therein, so that the Registration Statement and the Prospectus would not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. During such time period, the Company will prepare and furnish, at the Company’s expense, to the Agents, the Forward Purchasers and the Forward Sellers promptly such amendments or supplements to such Registration Statement and Prospectus as may be necessary to reflect any such change and will furnish the Agents, the Forward Purchasers and the Forward Sellers with a copy of such proposed amendment or supplement before filing any such amendment or supplement with the Commission.

(i) against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever, as incurred, arising out of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto) or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or arising out of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto), or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading;

(ii) against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever, as incurred, to the extent of the aggregate amount paid in settlement of any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or of any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission; provided that (subject to Section 5(d) below) any such settlement is effected with the written consent of the Company; and

(iii) against any and all expense whatsoever, as incurred (including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel chosen by such Agent, such Forward Purchaser or such Forward Seller), reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission, to the extent that any such expense is not paid under (i) or (ii) above;

31

described in the indemnity contained in subsection (a) of this Section, as incurred, but only with respect to untrue statements or omissions, or alleged untrue statements or omissions, made in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto) or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Agent or Forward Seller expressly for use therein.

An indemnifying party may participate at its own expense in the defense of any such action; provided, however, that counsel to the indemnifying party shall not (except with the consent of the indemnified party) also be counsel to the indemnified party. In no event shall the indemnifying parties be liable for fees and expenses of more than one counsel (in addition to any local counsel) separate from their own counsel for all indemnified parties in connection with any one action or separate but similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever in respect of which indemnification or contribution could be sought under this Section 5 or Section 6 hereof (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties thereto), unless such settlement, compromise or consent (i) includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such litigation, investigation, proceeding or claim and (ii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party.

(d) Settlement without Consent if Failure to Reimburse. If at any time an indemnified party shall have requested an indemnifying party to reimburse the indemnified party for fees and expenses of counsel, such indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of the nature contemplated by Section 5(a)(ii) effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 45 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of

32

the aforesaid request, (ii) such indemnifying party shall have received notice of the terms of such settlement at least 30 days prior to such settlement being entered into and (iii) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed such indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement. Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, if at any time an indemnified party shall have requested an indemnifying party to reimburse the indemnified party for fees and expenses of counsel, an indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of the nature contemplated by Section 5(a)(ii) effected without its consent if such indemnifying party (i) reimburses such indemnified party in accordance with such request to the extent it considers such request to be reasonable and (ii) provides written notice to the indemnified party substantiating the unpaid balance as unreasonable, in each case prior to the date of such settlement.

(e) Additional Liability. The obligations of the Company under this Section 5 shall be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to the directors and officers of the Agents, the Forward Purchasers and the Forward Sellers and to each person, if any, who controls the Agents, the Forward Purchasers or the Forward Sellers within the meaning of the 1933 Act and each broker-dealer affiliate of the Agents and the Forward Sellers; and the obligations of the Agents, the Forward Purchasers and the Forward Sellers under this Section 5 shall be in addition to any liability which the Agents and the Forward Sellers may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each officer and director of the Company and to each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the 1933 Act.

Section 6. Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in Section 5 hereof is for any reason unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the aggregate amount of such losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses incurred by such indemnified party, as incurred, (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the applicable Agent(s), Forward Purchaser(s) and Forward Seller(s) on the other hand from the offering of the Shares pursuant to this Agreement or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and of the applicable Agent(s), the applicable Forward Purchaser(s) or the applicable Forward Seller(s) on the other hand in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.

The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the applicable Agent(s), Forward Purchaser(s) and Forward Seller(s) on the other hand in connection with the offering of the Shares pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as (i) the Net Proceeds from the offering of the Shares pursuant to this Agreement (before deducting expenses) received by the Company (which shall be deemed to include the proceeds that would be received by the Company upon physical settlement of the applicable Master Confirmation assuming that the aggregate amount payable by the applicable Forward Purchaser under the applicable Master Confirmation is equal to the aggregate amount of the Net Proceeds realized upon the sale of the Shares) and (ii) the aggregate proceeds received by the applicable Agent(s), Forward Purchaser(s) and Forward Seller(s) from the sale of the Shares less the aggregate Net Proceeds.

33

The relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the applicable Agent(s), the Forward Purchaser(s) or the Forward Seller(s) on the other hand shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any such untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or by such Agent(s), the Forward Purchaser(s) and the Forward Seller(s) and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 6 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above in this Section 6. The aggregate amount of losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses incurred by an indemnified party and referred to above in this Section 6 shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission.

Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 6, none of the Agents, the Forward Purchasers and the Forward Sellers shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of (i) in the case of a Direct Sale, the total compensation received by the applicable Agent in connection with the sale of Shares on behalf of the Company and (ii) in the case of a Forward Sale, the total compensation received by the applicable Forward Seller in connection with the sale of Shares on behalf of the related Forward Purchaser or the Company.

No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the 1933 Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

For purposes of this Section 6, the person, if any, who controls an Agent, Forward Purchaser or Forward Seller within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act and such Agent’s, Forward Purchaser’s or Forward Seller’s affiliates shall have the same rights to contribution as such Agent, Forward Purchaser or Forward Seller, and each director of the Company, each officer of the Company who signed the Registration Statement, and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company.

Section 7. Representations, Warranties and Agreements to Survive Delivery. The respective indemnities, agreements, representations, warranties and other statements of the Company, the Agents and the Forward Sellers, as set forth in this Agreement or made by or on behalf of them, respectively, pursuant to this Agreement, shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation (or any statement as to the results thereof) made by or on behalf of the Agents and the Forward Sellers or any controlling person of the Agents and the Forward Sellers, or the Company, or any officer or director or controlling person of the Company, and shall survive delivery of and payment for the Shares.

34

Section 8. Termination.

(a) The Company shall have the right, by giving written notice as hereinafter specified, to terminate this Agreement in its sole discretion at any time. Any such termination shall be without liability of any party to any other party except that (i) if Shares have been sold through an Agent or Forward Seller, as the case may be, then Section 3(q) shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding such termination, (ii) with respect to any pending sale through an Agent or Forward Seller, as the case may be, the obligations of the Company, including in respect of compensation of such Agent or Forward Seller, shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding such termination and (iii) the provisions of Section 1, Section 3(i), Section 5, Section 6 and Section 10 of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding such termination.

(b) Any Agent, Forward Purchaser or Forward Seller shall have the right, by giving written notice as hereinafter specified, to terminate as to itself, this Agreement in its sole discretion at any time.

(c) This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect unless terminated pursuant to Section 8(a) or (b) above or otherwise by mutual agreement of the parties or upon settlement of the sale of all the Shares in the aggregate in one or more offerings; provided that any such termination by mutual agreement or pursuant to this clause (c) shall in all cases be deemed to provide that Section 1, Section 3(i), Section 5, Section 6 and Section 10 of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.

(d) Any termination of this Agreement shall be effective on the date specified in such notice of termination; provided that such termination shall not be effective until the close of business on the date of receipt of such notice by the Agents, the Forward Purchasers and the Forward Sellers or the Company, as the case may be. If such termination shall occur prior to the Settlement Date for any sale of Shares, such sale shall settle in accordance with the provisions of Section 2(i) hereof.

(e) Any Agent, Forward Purchaser or Forward Seller may terminate a Terms Agreement by notice given by it to the Company, if after the execution and delivery of such agreement and prior to any Settlement Date (as defined in the Terms Agreement) (i) trading generally shall have been suspended or materially limited on, or by, as the case may be, the NYSE, (ii) trading of any securities of the Company shall have been suspended on any exchange or in any over-the-counter market, (iii) a material disruption in securities settlement, payment or clearance services in the United States shall have occurred, (iv) any moratorium on commercial banking activities shall have been declared by Federal or New York State authorities or (v) there shall have occurred any outbreak or escalation of hostilities or any calamity or crisis that, in the judgment of such Agent, Forward Seller or Forward Purchaser, is material and adverse and which, singly or together with any other event specified in this clause (v), makes it, in such Agent’s, Forward Seller’s or Forward Purchaser’s judgment, impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the offer, sale or delivery of the Shares on the terms and in the manner contemplated in the Prospectus.

Exhibit A

FORM OF MASTER CONFIRMATION

The purpose of this letter agreement (this “Master Confirmation”) is to set forth the terms and conditions of one or more transactions (each, a “Transaction”) to be entered into between [   ] (“Dealer”)[, through its agent [*],] and Affiliated Managers Group, Inc. (“Counterparty”). Each such Transaction entered into between Dealer and Counterparty that is subject to this Master Confirmation shall be evidenced by (i) one or more instructions (each, an “Instruction”) pursuant to Section 2(b) of the Distribution Agreement (as defined below) (an “Agency Forward”) or a terms agreement (the “Terms Agreement”) pursuant to Section 2(l) of the Distribution Agreement (a “Block Forward”) and (ii) with respect to an Agency Forward, a pricing supplement substantially in the form of Annex A hereto (a “Pricing Supplement”), each with such modifications as to which Dealer and Counterparty mutually agree. This Master Confirmation, an Instruction or a Terms Agreement and a Pricing Supplement, if any, together shall constitute a “Confirmation” for the purposes of the Agreement specified below. This Master Confirmation, each Instruction, Terms Agreement, Pricing Supplement and the Agreement constitute the entire agreement and understanding of the parties with respect to the subject matter and terms of the Transactions and supersede all prior or contemporaneous written and oral communications with respect thereto.

[Dealer is not a member of the Securities Investor Protection Corporation. Dealer is authorized by the Prudential Regulation Authority and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority and the Prudential Regulation Authority.]

The definitions and provisions contained in the 2002 ISDA Equity Derivatives Definitions (the “Equity Definitions”), as published by the International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. (“ISDA”), are incorporated into each Confirmation, including this Master Confirmation. For purposes of the Equity Definitions, each Transaction will be deemed to be a Share Forward Transaction.

Each party is hereby advised, and each such party acknowledges, that the other party has engaged in, or refrained from engaging in, substantial financial transactions and has taken other material actions in reliance upon the parties’ entry into the Transactions to which this Master Confirmation, each Instruction or Terms Agreement and the Pricing Supplement, if any, relate on the terms and conditions set forth below.

Effectiveness; Distribution Agreement; Interpretive Letter:

Conditions to Effectiveness. Each Transaction shall be effective if and only if Shares are sold on or after the applicable Trade Date and on or prior to the applicable Hedge Completion Date through the Distribution Agent pursuant to a “Forward Sale” under the Distribution Agreement. If the Distribution Agreement is terminated prior to any such sale of Shares thereunder, the parties shall have no further obligations in connection with the relevant Transaction, other than in respect of breaches of representations or covenants on or prior to such date.

Distribution Agreement Representations, Warranties and Covenants. On each Trade Date and on each date on which Dealer or its affiliates deliver a prospectus in connection with a sale to hedge a Transaction, Counterparty repeats and reaffirms as of such date all of the representations and warranties contained in the Distribution Agreement. Counterparty hereby agrees to comply with its covenants contained in the Distribution Agreement as if such covenants were made in favor of Dealer.

Interpretive Letter. Counterparty agrees and acknowledges that each 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 to take all actions, and to omit to take any actions, reasonably requested by Dealer for each Transaction to comply with the Interpretive Letter. Without limiting the foregoing, Counterparty agrees that neither it nor any “affiliated purchaser” (as defined in Regulation M (“Regulation M”) promulgated under the Exchange Act) will, directly or indirectly, bid for, purchase or attempt to induce any person to bid for or purchase, the Shares or securities that are convertible into, or exchangeable or exercisable for, Shares during any “restricted period” as such term is defined in Regulation M. In addition, Counterparty represents that it is eligible to conduct a primary offering of Shares on Form S-3, the offering contemplated by the Distribution Agreement complies with Rule 415 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and the Shares are “actively traded” as defined in Rule 101(c)(1) of Regulation M.

Securities Laws Representations and Agreements:

Counterparty acknowledges that (a) during any Unwind Period, Counterparty shall not have, and shall not attempt to exercise, any influence over how, when or whether to effect purchases of Shares by Dealer (or its agent or affiliate) in connection with this Master Confirmation, each Instruction or Terms Agreement and the Pricing Supplement, if any, and (b) Counterparty is entering into the Agreement and this Master Confirmation, each Instruction or Terms Agreement and the Pricing Supplement, if any, in good faith (and with respect to each such document shall act 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 under the Exchange Act.

81

Counterparty hereby agrees with Dealer that during any Unwind Period Counterparty shall not communicate, directly or indirectly, any Material Non-Public Information to any Equity Derivatives Group Personnel. For purposes of each Transaction, “Material Non-Public Information” means information relating to Counterparty or the Shares that (x) has not been widely disseminated by wire service, in one or more newspapers of general circulation, by communication from Counterparty to its shareholders or in a press release, or contained in a public filing made by Counterparty with the Securities and Exchange Commission and (y) a reasonable investor might consider to be of importance in making an investment decision to buy, sell or hold Shares. For the avoidance of doubt and solely by way of illustration, information should be presumed “material” if it relates to such matters as dividend increases or decreases, earnings estimates, changes in previously released earnings estimates, significant expansion or curtailment of operations, a significant increase or decline of orders, significant merger or acquisition proposals or agreements, significant new products or discoveries, extraordinary borrowing, major litigation, liquidity problems, extraordinary management developments, purchase or sale of substantial assets, or other similar information. For purposes of each Transaction, “Equity Derivatives Group Personnel” means any employee of Dealer or its affiliates who effects purchases or sales of Shares in connection with this Master Confirmation.

Private Placement and Registration Procedures. If Counterparty notifies Dealer that it is unable to comply with the provisions of sub-paragraph (ii) of “Agreements and Acknowledgments Regarding Shares” above because of a change in law or a change in the policy of the Securities and Exchange Commission or its staff, or Dealer notifies Counterparty that in its reasonable opinion any Shares to be delivered to Dealer (or its affiliate) by Counterparty may not be freely returned by Dealer (or its affiliate) to securities lenders as described under such sub-paragraph (ii), or otherwise constitute “restricted securities” as defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act (the date such notification is effective being the “Determination Date”), then Counterparty may elect to effect the delivery of any such Shares (the “Restricted Shares”) pursuant to either clause (i) or (ii) below, unless waived by Dealer, on the later of (A)(1) if Private Placement Settlement is applicable, the tenth Scheduled Trading Day following the Determination Date or (2) if Registration Settlement is applicable, the thirtieth calendar day following the Determination Date (or if such day is not a Clearance System Business Day, the next Clearance System Business Day), (B) the date such delivery would otherwise be due pursuant to the terms of this Master Confirmation, each Instruction or Terms Agreement and the Pricing Supplement, if any, and (C) the Clearance System Business Day following notice by Dealer to Counterparty of the number of Shares to be delivered pursuant to these “Private Placement and Registration Procedures”; provided that if Counterparty does not so elect within three Scheduled Trading Days of the Determination Date, Counterparty shall be deemed to have elected clause (i) below.

85

If Counterparty delivers any Restricted Shares in respect of a Transaction, Counterparty agrees that (A) such Shares may be transferred by and among Dealer and its affiliates and (B) after the “holding period” specified in 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 Dealer (or such affiliate of Dealer) to Counterparty or such transfer agent of any seller’s and broker’s representation letters customarily delivered by Dealer 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 Dealer (or such affiliate of Dealer).

86

Indemnity. Counterparty agrees to indemnify Dealer and its affiliates and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents and controlling persons (Dealer 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 Master Confirmation, each Instruction or Terms Agreement and the Pricing Supplement, if any, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations under any Transaction, any breach of any covenant or representation made by Counterparty in this Master Confirmation, each Instruction or Terms Agreement and the Pricing Supplement, if any, or the 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, except to the extent resulting from Dealer’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

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 ANY TRANSACTION OR THE ACTIONS OF DEALER OR ITS AFFILIATES IN THE NEGOTIATION, PERFORMANCE OR ENFORCEMENT HEREOF.

Governing Law/Jurisdiction. This Master Confirmation, each Instruction or Terms Agreement and the Pricing Supplement, if any, shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York without reference to the conflict of laws provisions thereof. 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.

Designation by Dealer. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Master Confirmation, each Instruction or Terms Agreement and the Pricing Supplement, if any, to the contrary requiring or allowing Dealer to purchase, sell, receive or deliver any Shares or other securities to or from Counterparty, Dealer may designate any of its affiliates to purchase, sell, receive or deliver such Shares or other securities and otherwise to perform Dealer obligations in respect of any Transaction and any such designee may assume such obligations. Dealer shall be discharged of its obligations to Counterparty only to the extent of any such performance.

87

Accounting Standards Codification 815-40; Alternative Settlement. The parties hereby agree that all documentation with respect to a Transaction is intended to qualify such Transaction as an equity instrument for purposes of Accounting Standards Codification 815-40. If, subject to “Netting and Set-off” below, Counterparty owes Dealer any amount in connection with a Transaction pursuant to Section 12.7 or 12.9 of the Equity Definitions (except in the case of an Extraordinary Event in which the consideration or proceeds to be paid to holders of Shares as a result of such event consists solely of cash) or pursuant to Section 6(d)(ii) of the Agreement (except in the case of an Event of Default in which Counterparty is the Defaulting Party or a Termination Event in which Counterparty is the Affected Party, other than (x) an Event of Default of the type described in Section 5(a)(iii), (v), (vi) or (vii) of the Agreement or (y) a Termination Event of the type described in Section 5(b)(i), (ii), (iii), (iv), or (v) of the Agreement that in the case of either (x) or (y) resulted from an event or events outside Counterparty’s control) (a “Payment Obligation”), Counterparty shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to satisfy any such Payment Obligation by delivery of Termination Delivery Units (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 time on the Closing Date, Early Termination Date or other date of termination or cancellation, as applicable (“Notice of Termination Delivery”). Upon Notice of Termination Delivery, Counterparty shall deliver to Dealer 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, taking into account whether the Termination Delivery Units so delivered are freely tradable). Settlement relating to any delivery of Termination Delivery Units pursuant to this provision shall occur within one Scheduled Trading Day. “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; provided that 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.

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

88

Right to Extend. Dealer may postpone any Settlement Date or any other date of valuation or delivery, with respect to some or all of the relevant Settlement Shares, if Dealer determines, in its discretion, that such extension is reasonably necessary or appropriate to enable Dealer (or its affiliate) to effect purchases of Shares in connection with Dealer’s hedging activity hereunder or under any other Forward Contract in a manner that would, if Dealer (or its affiliate) were Counterparty or an affiliated purchaser of Counterparty, be in compliance with applicable legal and regulatory requirements, as determined by Dealer based upon the advice of outside counsel of national standing.

Counterparty Share Repurchases. Counterparty agrees not to repurchase any Shares if, immediately following such purchase, the Number of Shares for all Transactions under this Master Confirmation, each Instruction or Terms Agreement and the Pricing Supplement, if any, and all other Forward Contracts would be equal to or greater than 8.0% of the number of then-outstanding Shares or such lower number of Shares as Dealer notifies Counterparty would, in the reasonable judgment of outside counsel of national standing for Dealer, present legal or regulatory issues for Dealer or its affiliates.

Limit on Beneficial Ownership. Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, neither Dealer nor its affiliates shall be entitled to receive Shares hereunder (whether in connection with the purchase of Shares on any Settlement Date or otherwise) to the extent (but only to the extent) that such receipt would result in Dealer and its affiliates or any “group” of which Dealer (or its affiliates) is a part (i) directly or indirectly beneficially owning (as such term is defined for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act or, if it would result in a higher percentage of beneficial ownership, the equivalent calculation for purposes of determining a ten percent beneficial owner under Section 16 of the Exchange Act) at any time in excess of 4.9% of the outstanding Shares or (ii) having direct or indirect ownership or control (for purposes of the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended) at any time in excess of 4.9% of the outstanding Shares. Any purported delivery hereunder shall be void and have no effect to the extent (but only to the extent) that such delivery would result in Dealer and its affiliates or such a group directly or indirectly so beneficially owning or so owning or controlling in excess of 4.9% of the outstanding Shares. If any delivery owed to Dealer (or its affiliates) 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, Dealer gives notice to Counterparty that such delivery would not result in Dealer and its affiliates or such a group directly or indirectly so beneficially owning or so owning or controlling in excess of 4.9% of the outstanding Shares.

89

Commodity Exchange Act. Each of Dealer and Counterparty agrees and represents that it is an “eligible contract participant” as defined in the U.S. Commodity Exchange Act, as amended (the “CEA”), and the Agreement and each Transaction are subject to individual negotiation by the parties and have not been executed or traded on a “trading facility” as defined in the CEA.

Bankruptcy Status. Dealer acknowledges and agrees that this Master Confirmation, each Instruction or Terms Agreement and the Pricing Supplement, if any, is not intended to convey to Dealer rights with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby that are senior to the claims of Counterparty’s common stockholders in any U.S. bankruptcy proceedings of Counterparty; provided that nothing herein shall be deemed to limit Dealer’s right to pursue remedies in the event of a breach by Counterparty of its obligations and agreements with respect to this Master Confirmation, each Instruction or Terms Agreement and the Pricing Supplement, if any, and the Agreement; and provided, further, that nothing herein shall limit or shall be deemed to limit Dealer’s rights in respect of any transaction other than the Transactions.

No Collateral. The parties acknowledge that none of the Transactions are secured by any collateral that would otherwise secure the obligations of Counterparty herein under or pursuant to the Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, none of the Transactions will be considered to create obligations covered by any collateral credit support annex to the Agreement and will be disregarded for the purposes of calculating any exposures pursuant to any such annex.

Netting and Set-off. Dealer agrees not to set-off or net amounts due from Counterparty with respect to any Transaction against amounts due from Dealer to Counterparty under obligations other than Equity Contracts. Section 2(c) of the Agreement as it applies to payments due with respect to any Transaction shall remain in effect and is not subject to the first sentence of this provision. The parties agree that Section 6(f) of the Agreement is amended and restated to read as follows:

“(f) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default or Termination Event with respect to Counterparty as the Defaulting Party or the Affected Party (“X”), Dealer (“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

90

contingent and whether or not arising under this 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 this Agreement, and regardless of the currency, place of payment or booking office of the obligation). Y will give notice to the other party of 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 sold through the Distribution Agent pursuant to a “Forward Sale” under the Distribution Agreement.

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).”

Wall Street Transparency and Accountability Act of 2010. The parties hereby agree that none of (a) Section 739 of the Wall Street Transparency and Accountability Act of 2010 (“WSTAA”), (b) any similar legal certainty provision in any legislation enacted, or rule or regulation promulgated, on or after any Trade Date, (c) the enactment of WSTAA or any regulation under the WSTAA, (d) any requirement under WSTAA nor (e) an amendment made by WSTAA shall limit or otherwise impair either party’s rights to terminate, renegotiate, modify, amend or supplement this Master Confirmation, each Instruction or Terms Agreement and the Pricing Supplement, if any, or the Agreement, as applicable, arising from a termination event, force majeure, illegality, increased costs, regulatory change or similar event under this Master Confirmation, each Instruction or Terms Agreement and the Pricing Supplement, if any, the Equity Definitions incorporated herein, or the Agreement (including, but not limited to, rights arising from Change in Law, Increased Cost of Stock Borrow or Illegality).

Tax Representations.

It is not required by any applicable law, as modified by the practice of any relevant governmental revenue authority, of any Relevant Jurisdiction to make any deduction or withholding for or on account of any Tax from any payment (other than interest under Section 9(h) of the Agreement or any other payments of interest or penalty charges for late payment) to be made by it to the other party under the Agreement.

91

(i) the accuracy of any representations made by the other party pursuant to Section 3(f) of the Agreement,

(ii) the satisfaction of the agreement contained in Section 4(a)(i) or 4(a)(iii) of the Agreement, and the accuracy and effectiveness of any document provided by the other party pursuant to Section 4(a)(i) or 4(a)(iii) of the Agreement, and

(iii) the satisfaction of the agreement of the other party contained in Section 4(d) of the Agreement;

provided that it shall not be a breach of this representation where reliance is placed on clause (ii) above and the other party does not deliver a form or document under Section 4(a)(iii) by reason of material prejudice to its legal or commercial position.

92

withholding tax imposed or collected pursuant to Sections 1471 through 1474 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), any current or future regulations or official interpretations thereof, or any agreement entered into pursuant to Section 1471(b) of the Code (“FATCA”), or any fiscal or regulatory legislation or rules adopted pursuant to any intergovernmental agreement entered into in connection with the implementation of FATCA (a “FATCA Withholding Tax”).

Dealer will be acting for its own account in respect of this Master Confirmation and the Transaction contemplated hereunder.

Regulatory Provisions. The time of dealing for any Transaction will be confirmed by Dealer upon written request by Counterparty. The Agent will furnish to Counterparty upon written request a statement as to the source and amount of any remuneration received or to be received by the Agent in connection with a Transaction.

Method of Delivery. Whenever delivery of funds or other assets is required hereunder by or to Counterparty, such delivery shall be effected through the Agent.

EMIR Portfolio Reconciliation, Dispute Resolution and Disclosure Protocol. The parties agree that the terms of the 2020 UK EMIR Portfolio Reconciliation, Dispute Resolution and Disclosure Protocol published by ISDA on 17 December 2020 (“Protocol”) apply to the Agreement as if the parties had adhered to the Protocol without amendment. In respect of the Attachment to the Protocol, (i) the definition of “Adherence Letter” shall be deemed to be deleted and references to “Adherence Letter” shall be deemed to be to this section (and references to “such party’s Adherence Letter” and “its Adherence Letter” shall be read accordingly), (ii) references to “adheres to the Protocol” shall be deemed to be “enters into the Agreement”, (iii) references to “Protocol Covered Agreement” shall be deemed to be references to the Agreement (and each “Protocol Covered Agreement” shall be read accordingly), and (iv) references to “Implementation Date” shall be deemed to be references to the date of this Master Confirmation. For the purposes of this section:

96

NFC Representation. Counterparty represents and warrants to Dealer (which representation and warranty will be deemed to be made under the Agreement and repeated at all times while any “Transaction” under this Master Confirmation under the Agreement remains outstanding, unless the Counterparty notifies the Dealer promptly otherwise of any change in its status from that represented) that:

97

Bail-in Protocol. The parties agree that the provisions set out in the attachment (the “Attachment”) to the ISDA 2016 Bail-in Article 55 BRRD Protocol (Dutch/French/German/Irish/Italian/Luxembourg/Spanish/UK entity-in-resolution version) are incorporated into and form part of the Agreement, provided that the definition of “UK Bail-in Power” in the Attachment shall be deleted and replaced with the following definition.

“UK Bail-in Power” means any write-down or conversion power existing from time to time (including, without limitation, any power to amend or alter the maturity of eligible liabilities of an institution under resolution or amend the amount of interest payable under such eligible liabilities or the date on which interest becomes payable, including by suspending payment for a temporary period) under, and exercised in compliance with, any laws, regulations, rules or requirements (together, the “UK Regulations”) in effect in the UK, including but not limited to, the Banking Act 2009 as amended from time to time, and the instruments, rules and standards created thereunder, pursuant to which the obligations of a regulated entity (or other affiliate of a regulated entity) can be reduced (including to zero), cancelled or converted into shares, other securities, or other obligations of such regulated entity or any other person.

A reference to a “regulated entity” is to any BRRD Undertaking as such term is defined under the PRA Rulebook promulgated by the United Kingdom Prudential Regulation Authority or to any person falling within IFPRU 11.6, of the FCA Handbook promulgated by the United Kingdom Financial Conduct Authority, both as amended from time to time, which includes, certain credit institutions, investment firms, and certain of their parent or holding companies.

The Agreement shall be deemed a “Protocol Covered Agreement” for the purposes of the Attachment and the Implementation Date for the purposes of the Attachment shall be deemed to be the date of this Master Confirmation. In the event of any inconsistencies between the Attachment and the other provisions of the Agreement, the Attachment will prevail.

Contractual Recognition of UK Stay Resolution. Notwithstanding anything contained in the Agreement, the parties agree that the provisions of the 2020 UK (PRA Rule) Jurisdictional Module (the “UK Module”) published by ISDA on 22 December 2020, as amended from time to time, shall be deemed to be incorporated into the Agreement as if references in those provisions to “Covered Agreement” were references to the Agreement, and on the basis that: (i) Dealer shall be treated as a “Regulated Entity” and as a “Regulated Entity Counterparty” with respect to Counterparty, (ii) Counterparty shall be treated as a “Module Adhering Party”, and (iii) references to the “Implementation Date” in the UK Module shall be deemed to be the date of this Master Confirmation.]

In rendering the opinions stated herein, we have examined and relied upon the following:

(a) the registration statement on Form S-3ASR (File No. 333-285434) of the Company relating to the Securities and other securities of the Company filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on February 28, 2025 under the Securities Act, allowing for delayed offerings pursuant to Rule 415 of the General Rules and Regulations under the Securities Act (the “Rules and Regulations”), including information deemed to be a part of the registration statement pursuant to Rule 430B of the Rules and Regulations (such registration statement being hereinafter referred to as the “Registration Statement”);

(b) the prospectus, dated February 28, 2025 (the “Base Prospectus”), which forms a part of and is included in the Registration Statement;

(c) the prospectus supplement, dated March 7, 2025 (together with the Base Prospectus, the “Prospectus”), relating to the offering of the Securities, in the form filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the Rules and Regulations;

(d) an executed copy of the Equity Distribution Agreement;

(e) an executed copy of a certificate of Kavita Padiyar, General Counsel and Corporate Secretary of the Company, dated the date hereof (the “Secretary’s Certificate”);

In our examination, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, including electronic signatures, the legal capacity and competency of all natural persons, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as facsimile, electronic, certified or photocopied copies, and the authenticity of the originals of such copies. As to any facts relevant to the opinions stated herein that we did not independently establish or verify, we have relied upon statements and representations of officers and other representatives of the Company and others and of public officials, including the facts and conclusions set forth in the Certificate of Incorporation and the Secretary’s Certificate and the factual representations and warranties contained in the Equity Distribution Agreement.

Based upon the foregoing and subject to the qualifications and assumptions stated herein, we are of the opinion that the Securities to be issued pursuant to the Equity Distribution Agreement have been duly authorized by all requisite corporate action on the part of the Company under the DGCL and when issued and sold in accordance with the terms of the Equity Distribution Agreement, will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, provided that the consideration therefor is not less than $0.01 per share.

(b) the Company’s authorized capital stock is as set forth in the Certificate of Incorporation, and we have relied solely on the certified copy thereof issued by the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware and have not made any other inquiries or investigations.

MASTER CONFIRMATION

The purpose of this letter agreement (this “Master Confirmation”) is to set forth the terms and conditions of one or more transactions (each, a “Transaction”) to be entered into between [    ] (“Dealer”)[, through its agent [*],] and Affiliated Managers Group, Inc. (“Counterparty”). Each such Transaction entered into between Dealer and Counterparty that is subject to this Master Confirmation shall be evidenced by (i) one or more instructions (each, an “Instruction”) pursuant to Section 2(b) of the Distribution Agreement (as defined below) (an “Agency Forward”) or a terms agreement (the “Terms Agreement”) pursuant to Section 2(l) of the Distribution Agreement (a “Block Forward”) and (ii) with respect to an Agency Forward, a pricing supplement substantially in the form of Annex A hereto (a “Pricing Supplement”), each with such modifications as to which Dealer and Counterparty mutually agree. This Master Confirmation, an Instruction or a Terms Agreement and a Pricing Supplement, if any, together shall constitute a “Confirmation” for the purposes of the Agreement specified below. This Master Confirmation, each Instruction, Terms Agreement, Pricing Supplement and the Agreement constitute the entire agreement and understanding of the parties with respect to the subject matter and terms of the Transactions and supersede all prior or contemporaneous written and oral communications with respect thereto.

[Dealer is not a member of the Securities Investor Protection Corporation. Dealer is authorized by the Prudential Regulation Authority and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority and the Prudential Regulation Authority.]

The definitions and provisions contained in the 2002 ISDA Equity Derivatives Definitions (the “Equity Definitions”), as published by the International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. (“ISDA”), are incorporated into each Confirmation, including this Master Confirmation. For purposes of the Equity Definitions, each Transaction will be deemed to be a Share Forward Transaction.

Each party is hereby advised, and each such party acknowledges, that the other party has engaged in, or refrained from engaging in, substantial financial transactions and has taken other material actions in reliance upon the parties’ entry into the Transactions to which this Master Confirmation, each Instruction or Terms Agreement and the Pricing Supplement, if any, relate on the terms and conditions set forth below.

If, in relation to any Transaction to which this Master Confirmation, an Instruction or a Terms Agreement, as applicable, and the Pricing Supplement, if any, relate, there is any inconsistency between the Agreement, this Master Confirmation, such Instruction or Terms Agreement and any such Pricing Supplement and the Equity Definitions, the following will prevail for purposes of such Transaction in the order of precedence indicated: (i) any such Pricing Supplement; (ii) such Instruction or Terms Agreement; (iii) this Master Confirmation; (iv) the Equity Definitions; and (v) the Agreement. The parties hereby agree that, other than the Transactions to which this Master Confirmation, all Instructions or Terms Agreements and Pricing Supplements, if any, relate and any other Equity Contract, no other Transaction shall be governed by the Agreement. The parties also acknowledge that the Transactions to which this Master Confirmation, each Instruction or Terms Agreement and the Pricing Supplement, if any, relate are not governed by, and shall not be treated as Transactions under, any other ISDA Master Agreement entered into between Dealer and Counterparty from time to time.

Effectiveness; Distribution Agreement; Interpretive Letter:

Conditions to Effectiveness. Each Transaction shall be effective if and only if Shares are sold on or after the applicable Trade Date and on or prior to the applicable Hedge Completion Date through the Distribution Agent pursuant to a “Forward Sale” under the Distribution Agreement. If the Distribution Agreement is terminated prior to any such sale of Shares thereunder, the parties shall have no further obligations in connection with the relevant Transaction, other than in respect of breaches of representations or covenants on or prior to such date.

Distribution Agreement Representations, Warranties and Covenants. On each Trade Date and on each date on which Dealer or its affiliates deliver a prospectus in connection with a sale to hedge a Transaction, Counterparty repeats and reaffirms as of such date all of the representations and warranties contained in the Distribution Agreement. Counterparty hereby agrees to comply with its covenants contained in the Distribution Agreement as if such covenants were made in favor of Dealer.

Interpretive Letter. Counterparty agrees and acknowledges that each 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 to take all actions, and to omit to take any actions, reasonably requested by Dealer for each Transaction to comply with the Interpretive Letter. Without limiting the foregoing, Counterparty agrees that neither it nor any “affiliated purchaser” (as defined in Regulation M (“Regulation M”) promulgated under the Exchange Act) will, directly or indirectly, bid for, purchase or attempt to induce any person to bid for or purchase, the Shares or securities that are convertible into, or exchangeable or exercisable for, Shares during any “restricted period” as such term is defined in Regulation M. In addition, Counterparty represents that it is eligible to conduct a primary offering of Shares on Form S-3, the offering contemplated by the Distribution Agreement complies with Rule 415 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and the Shares are “actively traded” as defined in Rule 101(c)(1) of Regulation M.

14

Agreements and Acknowledgments Regarding Shares:

15

Securities Laws Representations and Agreements:

Counterparty acknowledges that (a) during any Unwind Period, Counterparty shall not have, and shall not attempt to exercise, any influence over how, when or whether to effect purchases of Shares by Dealer (or its agent or affiliate) in connection with this Master Confirmation, each Instruction or Terms Agreement and the Pricing Supplement, if any, and (b) Counterparty is entering into the Agreement and this Master Confirmation, each Instruction or Terms Agreement and the Pricing Supplement, if any, in good faith (and with respect to each such document shall act 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 under the Exchange Act.

16

Counterparty hereby agrees with Dealer that during any Unwind Period Counterparty shall not communicate, directly or indirectly, any Material Non-Public Information to any Equity Derivatives Group Personnel. For purposes of each Transaction, “Material Non-Public Information” means information relating to Counterparty or the Shares that (x) has not been widely disseminated by wire service, in one or more newspapers of general circulation, by communication from Counterparty to its shareholders or in a press release, or contained in a public filing made by Counterparty with the Securities and Exchange Commission and (y) a reasonable investor might consider to be of importance in making an investment decision to buy, sell or hold Shares. For the avoidance of doubt and solely by way of illustration, information should be presumed “material” if it relates to such matters as dividend increases or decreases, earnings estimates, changes in previously released earnings estimates, significant expansion or curtailment of operations, a significant increase or decline of orders, significant merger or acquisition proposals or agreements, significant new products or discoveries, extraordinary borrowing, major litigation, liquidity problems, extraordinary management developments, purchase or sale of substantial assets, or other similar information. For purposes of each Transaction, “Equity Derivatives Group Personnel” means any employee of Dealer or its affiliates who effects purchases or sales of Shares in connection with this Master Confirmation.

Private Placement and Registration Procedures. If Counterparty notifies Dealer that it is unable to comply with the provisions of sub-paragraph (ii) of “Agreements and Acknowledgments Regarding Shares” above because of a change in law or a change in the policy of the Securities and Exchange Commission or its staff, or Dealer notifies Counterparty that in its reasonable opinion any Shares to be delivered to Dealer (or its affiliate) by Counterparty may not be freely returned by Dealer (or its affiliate) to securities lenders as described under such sub-paragraph (ii), or otherwise constitute “restricted securities” as defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act (the date such notification is effective being the “Determination Date”), then Counterparty may elect to effect the delivery of any such Shares (the “Restricted Shares”) pursuant to either clause (i) or (ii) below, unless waived by Dealer, on the later of (A)(1) if Private Placement Settlement is applicable, the tenth Scheduled Trading Day following the Determination Date or (2) if Registration Settlement is applicable, the thirtieth calendar day following the Determination Date (or if such day is not a Clearance System Business Day, the next Clearance System Business Day), (B) the date such delivery would otherwise be due pursuant to the terms of this Master Confirmation, each Instruction or Terms Agreement and the Pricing Supplement, if any, and (C) the Clearance System Business Day following notice by Dealer to Counterparty of the number of Shares to be delivered pursuant to these “Private Placement and Registration Procedures”; provided that if Counterparty does not so elect within three Scheduled Trading Days of the Determination Date, Counterparty shall be deemed to have elected clause (i) below.

20

If Counterparty delivers any Restricted Shares in respect of a Transaction, Counterparty agrees that (A) such Shares may be transferred by and among Dealer and its affiliates and (B) after the “holding period” specified in 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 Dealer (or such affiliate of Dealer) to Counterparty or such transfer agent of any seller’s and broker’s representation letters customarily delivered by Dealer 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 Dealer (or such affiliate of Dealer).

21

in a commercially reasonable manner to reflect the fact that Dealer (or its affiliate) will incur carrying costs and other costs in connection with the unwind of Dealer’s hedge as it relates to such Registered Settlement; provided that for any Transaction in no event will Counterparty be required to deliver to Dealer (or its affiliate) a number of Registered Shares in excess of the Maximum Delivery Amount for such Transaction. If Dealer adjusts the amount of Registered Shares, it shall provide Counterparty with a statement indicating in reasonable detail how such share adjustment was determined.

Indemnity. Counterparty agrees to indemnify Dealer and its affiliates and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents and controlling persons (Dealer 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 Master Confirmation, each Instruction or Terms Agreement and the Pricing Supplement, if any, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations under any Transaction, any breach of any covenant or representation made by Counterparty in this Master Confirmation, each Instruction or Terms Agreement and the Pricing Supplement, if any, or the 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, except to the extent resulting from Dealer’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

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 ANY TRANSACTION OR THE ACTIONS OF DEALER OR ITS AFFILIATES IN THE NEGOTIATION, PERFORMANCE OR ENFORCEMENT HEREOF.

Governing Law/Jurisdiction. This Master Confirmation, each Instruction or Terms Agreement and the Pricing Supplement, if any, shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York without reference to the conflict of laws provisions thereof. 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.

Designation by Dealer. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Master Confirmation, each Instruction or Terms Agreement and the Pricing Supplement, if any, to the contrary requiring or allowing Dealer to purchase, sell, receive or deliver any Shares or other securities to or from Counterparty, Dealer may designate any of its affiliates to purchase, sell, receive or deliver such Shares or other securities and otherwise to perform Dealer obligations in respect of any Transaction and any such designee may assume such obligations. Dealer shall be discharged of its obligations to Counterparty only to the extent of any such performance.

22

Accounting Standards Codification 815-40; Alternative Settlement. The parties hereby agree that all documentation with respect to a Transaction is intended to qualify such Transaction as an equity instrument for purposes of Accounting Standards Codification 815-40. If, subject to “Netting and Set-off” below, Counterparty owes Dealer any amount in connection with a Transaction pursuant to Section 12.7 or 12.9 of the Equity Definitions (except in the case of an Extraordinary Event in which the consideration or proceeds to be paid to holders of Shares as a result of such event consists solely of cash) or pursuant to Section 6(d)(ii) of the Agreement (except in the case of an Event of Default in which Counterparty is the Defaulting Party or a Termination Event in which Counterparty is the Affected Party, other than (x) an Event of Default of the type described in Section 5(a)(iii), (v), (vi) or (vii) of the Agreement or (y) a Termination Event of the type described in Section 5(b)(i), (ii), (iii), (iv), or (v) of the Agreement that in the case of either (x) or (y) resulted from an event or events outside Counterparty’s control) (a “Payment Obligation”), Counterparty shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to satisfy any such Payment Obligation by delivery of Termination Delivery Units (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 time on the Closing Date, Early Termination Date or other date of termination or cancellation, as applicable (“Notice of Termination Delivery”). Upon Notice of Termination Delivery, Counterparty shall deliver to Dealer 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, taking into account whether the Termination Delivery Units so delivered are freely tradable). Settlement relating to any delivery of Termination Delivery Units pursuant to this provision shall occur within one Scheduled Trading Day. “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; provided that 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.

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

23

Right to Extend. Dealer may postpone any Settlement Date or any other date of valuation or delivery, with respect to some or all of the relevant Settlement Shares, if Dealer determines, in its discretion, that such extension is reasonably necessary or appropriate to enable Dealer (or its affiliate) to effect purchases of Shares in connection with Dealer’s hedging activity hereunder or under any other Forward Contract in a manner that would, if Dealer (or its affiliate) were Counterparty or an affiliated purchaser of Counterparty, be in compliance with applicable legal and regulatory requirements, as determined by Dealer based upon the advice of outside counsel of national standing.

Counterparty Share Repurchases. Counterparty agrees not to repurchase any Shares if, immediately following such purchase, the Number of Shares for all Transactions under this Master Confirmation, each Instruction or Terms Agreement and the Pricing Supplement, if any, and all other Forward Contracts would be equal to or greater than 8.0% of the number of then-outstanding Shares or such lower number of Shares as Dealer notifies Counterparty would, in the reasonable judgment of outside counsel of national standing for Dealer, present legal or regulatory issues for Dealer or its affiliates.

Limit on Beneficial Ownership. Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, neither Dealer nor its affiliates shall be entitled to receive Shares hereunder (whether in connection with the purchase of Shares on any Settlement Date or otherwise) to the extent (but only to the extent) that such receipt would result in Dealer and its affiliates or any “group” of which Dealer (or its affiliates) is a part (i) directly or indirectly beneficially owning (as such term is defined for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act or, if it would result in a higher percentage of beneficial ownership, the equivalent calculation for purposes of determining a ten percent beneficial owner under Section 16 of the Exchange Act) at any time in excess of 4.9% of the outstanding Shares or (ii) having direct or indirect ownership or control (for purposes of the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended) at any time in excess of 4.9% of the outstanding Shares. Any purported delivery hereunder shall be void and have no effect to the extent (but only to the extent) that such delivery would result in Dealer and its affiliates or such a group directly or indirectly so beneficially owning or so owning or controlling in excess of 4.9% of the outstanding Shares. If any delivery owed to Dealer (or its affiliates) 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, Dealer gives notice to Counterparty that such delivery would not result in Dealer and its affiliates or such a group directly or indirectly so beneficially owning or so owning or controlling in excess of 4.9% of the outstanding Shares.

Commodity Exchange Act. Each of Dealer and Counterparty agrees and represents that it is an “eligible contract participant” as defined in the U.S. Commodity Exchange Act, as amended (the “CEA”), and the Agreement and each Transaction are subject to individual negotiation by the parties and have not been executed or traded on a “trading facility” as defined in the CEA.

24

Securities Act. Each of Dealer and Counterparty agrees and represents that it is a “qualified institutional buyer” as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act, or an “accredited investor” as defined under the Securities Act.

ERISA. Each of Dealer and Counterparty agrees and represents that the assets used in each Transaction (a) are not, as determined under Section 3(42) of the U.S. Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”), assets of any “plan” (as such term is defined in Section 4975 of the Code) subject to Section 4975 of the Code or any “employee benefit plan” (as such term is defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA) subject to Title I of ERISA, and (b) do not constitute, as determined under Section 3(42) of ERISA, assets of an entity that is “benefit plan investor” (as such term is defined in Section 3(42) of ERISA).

Bankruptcy Status. Dealer acknowledges and agrees that this Master Confirmation, each Instruction or Terms Agreement and the Pricing Supplement, if any, is not intended to convey to Dealer rights with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby that are senior to the claims of Counterparty’s common stockholders in any U.S. bankruptcy proceedings of Counterparty; provided that nothing herein shall be deemed to limit Dealer’s right to pursue remedies in the event of a breach by Counterparty of its obligations and agreements with respect to this Master Confirmation, each Instruction or Terms Agreement and the Pricing Supplement, if any, and the Agreement; and provided, further, that nothing herein shall limit or shall be deemed to limit Dealer’s rights in respect of any transaction other than the Transactions.

No Collateral. The parties acknowledge that none of the Transactions are secured by any collateral that would otherwise secure the obligations of Counterparty herein under or pursuant to the Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, none of the Transactions will be considered to create obligations covered by any collateral credit support annex to the Agreement and will be disregarded for the purposes of calculating any exposures pursuant to any such annex.

Netting and Set-off. Dealer agrees not to set-off or net amounts due from Counterparty with respect to any Transaction against amounts due from Dealer to Counterparty under obligations other than Equity Contracts. Section 2(c) of the Agreement as it applies to payments due with respect to any Transaction shall remain in effect and is not subject to the first sentence of this provision. The parties agree that Section 6(f) of the Agreement is amended and restated to read as follows:

“(f) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default or Termination Event with respect to Counterparty as the Defaulting Party or the Affected Party (“X”), Dealer (“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

25

contingent and whether or not arising under this 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 this Agreement, and regardless of the currency, place of payment or booking office of the obligation). Y will give notice to the other party of 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 sold through the Distribution Agent pursuant to a “Forward Sale” under the Distribution Agreement.

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).”

Wall Street Transparency and Accountability Act of 2010. The parties hereby agree that none of (a) Section 739 of the Wall Street Transparency and Accountability Act of 2010 (“WSTAA”), (b) any similar legal certainty provision in any legislation enacted, or rule or regulation promulgated, on or after any Trade Date, (c) the enactment of WSTAA or any regulation under the WSTAA, (d) any requirement under WSTAA nor (e) an amendment made by WSTAA shall limit or otherwise impair either party’s rights to terminate, renegotiate, modify, amend or supplement this Master Confirmation, each Instruction or Terms Agreement and the Pricing Supplement, if any, or the Agreement, as applicable, arising from a termination event, force majeure, illegality, increased costs, regulatory change or similar event under this Master Confirmation, each Instruction or Terms Agreement and the Pricing Supplement, if any, the Equity Definitions incorporated herein, or the Agreement (including, but not limited to, rights arising from Change in Law, Increased Cost of Stock Borrow or Illegality).

Tax Representations.

It is not required by any applicable law, as modified by the practice of any relevant governmental revenue authority, of any Relevant Jurisdiction to make any deduction or withholding for or on account of any Tax from any payment (other than interest under Section 9(h) of the Agreement or any other payments of interest or penalty charges for late payment) to be made by it to the other party under the Agreement.

26

(i) the accuracy of any representations made by the other party pursuant to Section 3(f) of the Agreement,

(ii) the satisfaction of the agreement contained in Section 4(a)(i) or 4(a)(iii) of the Agreement, and the accuracy and effectiveness of any document provided by the other party pursuant to Section 4(a)(i) or 4(a)(iii) of the Agreement, and

(iii) the satisfaction of the agreement of the other party contained in Section 4(d) of the Agreement;

provided that it shall not be a breach of this representation where reliance is placed on clause (ii) above and the other party does not deliver a form or document under Section 4(a)(iii) by reason of material prejudice to its legal or commercial position.

32

Bail-in Protocol. The parties agree that the provisions set out in the attachment (the “Attachment”) to the ISDA 2016 Bail-in Article 55 BRRD Protocol (Dutch/French/German/Irish/Italian/Luxembourg/Spanish/UK entity-in-resolution version) are incorporated into and form part of the Agreement, provided that the definition of “UK Bail-in Power” in the Attachment shall be deleted and replaced with the following definition.

“UK Bail-in Power” means any write-down or conversion power existing from time to time (including, without limitation, any power to amend or alter the maturity of eligible liabilities of an institution under resolution or amend the amount of interest payable under such eligible liabilities or the date on which interest becomes payable, including by suspending payment for a temporary period) under, and exercised in compliance with, any laws, regulations, rules or requirements (together, the “UK Regulations”) in effect in the UK, including but not limited to, the Banking Act 2009 as amended from time to time, and the instruments, rules and standards created thereunder, pursuant to which the obligations of a regulated entity (or other affiliate of a regulated entity) can be reduced (including to zero), cancelled or converted into shares, other securities, or other obligations of such regulated entity or any other person.

A reference to a “regulated entity” is to any BRRD Undertaking as such term is defined under the PRA Rulebook promulgated by the United Kingdom Prudential Regulation Authority or to any person falling within IFPRU 11.6, of the FCA Handbook promulgated by the United Kingdom Financial Conduct Authority, both as amended from time to time, which includes, certain credit institutions, investment firms, and certain of their parent or holding companies.

The Agreement shall be deemed a “Protocol Covered Agreement” for the purposes of the Attachment and the Implementation Date for the purposes of the Attachment shall be deemed to be the date of this Master Confirmation. In the event of any inconsistencies between the Attachment and the other provisions of the Agreement, the Attachment will prevail.

Contractual Recognition of UK Stay Resolution. Notwithstanding anything contained in the Agreement, the parties agree that the provisions of the 2020 UK (PRA Rule) Jurisdictional Module (the “UK Module”) published by ISDA on 22 December 2020, as amended from time to time, shall be deemed to be incorporated into the Agreement as if references in those provisions to “Covered Agreement” were references to the Agreement, and on the basis that: (i) Dealer shall be treated as a “Regulated Entity” and as a “Regulated Entity Counterparty” with respect to Counterparty, (ii) Counterparty shall be treated as a “Module Adhering Party”, and (iii) references to the “Implementation Date” in the UK Module shall be deemed to be the date of this Master Confirmation.]
