The Company will designate the maximum amount of the Shares to be sold by the Sales Agent daily as agreed to by the Sales Agent and in any event not in excess of the amount available for issuance under the currently effective Registration Statement relating to the sale of up to $1,500,000,000 of Shares as described in the prospectus supplement dated September 20, 2024, or any Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 5(g), or in a number in excess of the number of Shares authorized from time to time to be issued and sold under this Agreement by the Company’s board of directors, or a duly authorized committee thereof, and notified to the Sales Agent in writing (a “Placement Notice”). Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Sales Agent shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to offer and sell all of the Shares designated; provided, however, that the Sales Agent shall have no obligation to offer or sell any Shares, and the Company acknowledges and agrees that the Sales Agent shall have no such obligation, in the event an offer or sale of the Shares on behalf of the Company may in the judgment of the Sales Agent constitute the sale of a “block” under Rule 10b-18(a)(5) under the Exchange Act or a “distribution” within the meaning of Rule 100 of Regulation M under the Exchange Act or the Sales Agent reasonably believes it may be deemed an “underwriter” under the Act in a transaction that is other than by means of ordinary brokers’ transactions between members of the NYSE that qualify for delivery of a Prospectus to the NYSE in accordance with Rule 153 under the Act (such transactions are hereinafter referred to as “At-the-Market Offerings”).

In addition, the Company or the Sales Agent may, upon notice to the other party hereto by telephone (confirmed promptly by electronic mail) (or as otherwise agreed to by the Company and the Sales Agent), suspend the offering of the Shares; 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.

(vi) Settlement for sales of the Shares pursuant to this Section 4(a) will occur on the first business day following the date on which such sales are made or such other date as may be agreed by the Company and the Sales Agent (each such date, a “Settlement Date”). On each Settlement Date, the Shares sold through the Sales Agent for settlement on such date shall be issued and delivered by the Company to the Sales Agent against payment of the Net Proceeds for the sale of such Shares. Settlement for all such Shares shall be effected by free delivery of the Shares by the Company or its transfer agent to the Sales Agent’s account, or to the account of the Sales Agent’s designee, at The Depository Trust Company through its Deposit and Withdrawal at Custodian System (“DWAC”) or by such other means of delivery as may be mutually agreed upon by the parties hereto, which in all cases shall be freely tradable, transferable, registered shares in good deliverable form, in return for payments in same day funds delivered to the account designated by the Company.

In the event of a conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of any Terms Agreement, the terms of such Terms Agreement will control.

(e) Any offer, solicitation or sale of the Shares shall be effected by or through only one of the Agents on any single trading day.

Purchase, Sale and Delivery of Offered Securities On the basis of the representations, warranties and agreements and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Company agrees to sell to each Underwriter, and each of the Underwriters agrees, severally and not jointly, to purchase from the Company, at a purchase price of $[ ] per share, that number of Firm Securities (rounded up or down, as determined by the Representatives in their discretion, in order to avoid fractions) obtained by multiplying [ ] Firm Securities by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of Firm Securities set forth opposite the name of such Underwriter in Schedule A hereto and the denominator of which is the total number of Firm Securities. The Company will deliver the Firm Securities to or as instructed by the Representatives for the accounts of the several Underwriters in a form reasonably acceptable to the Representatives against payment of the purchase price by the Underwriters in Federal (same day) funds by wire transfer to an account at a bank acceptable to the Representatives drawn to the order of the Company, at the office of Fenwick & West LLP, 000 Xxxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx Xxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx at [ ] A.M., New York time, on [ ], 2013, or at such other time not later than seven full business days thereafter as the Representatives and the Company determine, such time being herein referred to as the “First Closing Date”. For purposes of Rule 15c6-1 under the Exchange Act, the First Closing Date (if later than the otherwise applicable settlement date) shall be the settlement date for payment of funds and delivery of securities for all the Offered Securities sold pursuant to the offering. In addition, upon written notice from the Representatives given to the Company and the Selling Stockholders from time to time not more than 30 days subsequent to the date of the Final Prospectus, the Underwriters may purchase all or less than all of the Optional Securities at the purchase price per Security to be paid for the Firm Securities. The Selling Stockholders agree, severally and not jointly, to sell to the Underwriters the respective numbers of Optional Securities obtained by multiplying the number of Optional Securities specified in such notice by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of Optional Securities set forth opposite the name of such Selling Stockholder in Schedule B hereto and the denominator of which is the total number of Optional Securities (subject to adjustment by the Representatives to eliminate fractions) indicated in such notice. Such Optional Securities shall be purchased from the Selling Stockholders for the account of each Underwriter in the same proportion as the number of Firm Securities set forth opposite such Underwriter’s name bears to the total number of Firm Securities (subject to adjustment by the Representatives to eliminate fractions) and may be purchased by the Underwriters only for the purpose of covering over-allotments made in connection with the sale of the Firm Securities. No Optional Securities shall be sold or delivered unless the Firm Securities previously have been, or simultaneously are, sold and delivered. The right to purchase the Optional Securities or any portion thereof may be exercised from time to time and, to the extent not previously exercised, may be surrendered and terminated at any time upon notice by the Representatives to the Company and the Selling Stockholders. Certificates in negotiable form or book-entry entitlements for the Offered Securities to be sold by the Selling Stockholders hereunder have been placed in custody, for delivery under this Agreement, under Custody Agreements made with Computershare Inc., as custodian (“Custodian”). Each Selling Stockholder agrees that the shares represented by the certificates or the book-entry entitlements held in custody for the Selling Stockholders under such Custody Agreements are subject to the interests of the Underwriters hereunder, that the arrangements made by such Selling Stockholder for such custody are to that extent irrevocable as provided in the Custody Agreement, and that the obligations of such Selling Stockholder hereunder shall not be terminated by operation of law, whether by the death of such Selling Stockholder or the occurrence of any other event, or in the case of a trust, by the death of any trustee or trustees or the termination of such trust. If any individual Selling Stockholder or any such trustee or trustees should die, or if any other such event should occur, or if any of such trusts should terminate, before the delivery of the Offered Securities hereunder, book-entry positions for such Offered Securities shall be delivered by the Custodian in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement as if such death or other event or termination had not occurred, regardless of whether or not the Custodian shall have received notice of such death or other event or termination. Each time for the delivery of and payment for the Optional Securities, being herein referred to as an “Optional Closing Date”, which may be the First Closing Date (the First Closing Date and each Optional Closing Date, if any, being sometimes referred to as a “Closing Date”), shall be determined by the Representatives but shall be not later than five full business days after written notice of election to purchase Optional Securities is given. The Selling Stockholders will deliver the Optional Securities being purchased on each Optional Closing Date to or as instructed by the Representatives for the accounts of the several Underwriters in a form reasonably acceptable to the Representatives against payment of the purchase price therefor in Federal (same day) funds by wire transfer to an account at a bank acceptable to the Representatives drawn to the order of the [Custodian], at the above office of Fenwick & West LLP. The Optional Securities being purchased on each Optional Closing Date, or evidence of their issuance, will be made available for checking at the above office of Fenwick & West LLP at a reasonable time in advance of such Optional Closing Date.
Delivery of Securities Sold Notwithstanding Section 4.03 above or any other provision of this Agreement, the Custodian, when instructed to deliver Securities against payment, shall be entitled, if in accordance with generally accepted market practice, to deliver such Securities prior to actual receipt of final payment therefor. In any such case, the Fund shall bear the risk that final payment for such Securities may not be made or that such Securities may be returned or otherwise held or disposed of by or through the person to whom they were delivered, and the Custodian shall have no liability for any for the foregoing.
