Ladies and Gentlemen:

Exelon Corporation, a Pennsylvania corporation (the “Company”), hereby confirms its agreement with you and each of the several Underwriters listed in Schedule 1 hereto (the “Underwriters”), for whom you are acting as representatives (the “Representatives”), with respect to the issuance and sale to the several Underwriters of 20,000,000 of the Company’s Corporate Units (the “Firm Corporate Units”) specified in Schedule 2 hereto and, at the election of the Representatives acting on behalf of the Underwriters, up to an additional 3,000,000 of the Company’s Corporate Units (the “Optional Corporate Units”, and together with the Firm Corporate Units, the “Corporate Units”), and the public offering thereof by the several Underwriters, upon the terms specified in Schedule 2.

Any reference herein to the Registration Statement, the Base Prospectus, any Preliminary Prospectus or the Final Prospectus shall be deemed to refer to and include the documents incorporated by reference therein pursuant to Item 12 of Form S-3 which were filed under the Exchange Act on or before the Effective Date of the Registration Statement or the issue date of the Base Prospectus, any Preliminary Prospectus or the Final Prospectus, as the case may be; and any reference herein to the terms “amend,” “amendment” or “supplement” with respect to the Registration Statement, the Base Prospectus, any Preliminary Prospectus or the Final Prospectus shall be deemed to refer to and include the filing of any document under the Exchange Act after the Effective Date of the Registration Statement or the issue date of the Base Prospectus, any Preliminary Prospectus or the Final Prospectus, as the case may be, deemed to be incorporated therein by reference. Certain terms used herein are defined in Section 19 hereof.

Each Corporate Unit has a stated amount of $50 (the Stated Amount) and consists of (i) a Purchase Contract (a “Purchase Contract”) issued by the Company pursuant to which the holder thereof will agree to purchase from the Company and the Company will agree to sell to the holder thereof on June 1, 2017, subject to earlier settlement or termination, or if such day is not a Business Day, the following Business Day (the “Purchase Contract Settlement Date”), for a price of $50 in cash, a variable number of shares (the “Issuable Common Stock”) of the Company’s common stock, without par value (the “Common Stock”), equal to the Settlement Rate (as defined in the Preliminary Prospectus and the Final Prospectus), subject to anti-dilution adjustments, as determined pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Contract and Pledge Agreement and (ii) a 1/20 undivided beneficial ownership interest in $1,000 principal amount of the Company’s 2.50% Junior Subordinated Notes due 2024 (the “Notes”).

The Purchase Contracts will be issued pursuant to the Purchase Contract and Pledge Agreement, to be dated as of the Closing Date (as defined below) (the “Purchase Contract and Pledge Agreement”), among the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as collateral agent (the “Collateral Agent”), The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as the custodial agent (the “Custodial Agent”) and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as the securities intermediary (the “Securities Intermediary”).

A holder of Corporate Units, at its option, may elect to create “Treasury Units” in accordance with the Purchase Contract and Pledge Agreement by substituting pledged U.S. Treasury securities for any pledged ownership interests in the Notes. Unless otherwise indicated, the term “Equity Units” includes both Corporate Units and Treasury Units.

The Notes will be issued under the Company’s Junior Subordinated Indenture, to be dated as of the Closing Date (the “Base Indenture”), between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as Trustee (the “Trustee”), as supplemented and amended by the First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of the Closing Date (the “Supplemental Indenture” and together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”).

A Corporate Unit holder’s ownership interest in each Note initially will be pledged to secure such holder’s obligations under the related Purchase Contracts, such pledge to be on the terms and conditions set forth in the Purchase Contract and Pledge Agreement.

Pursuant to a Remarketing Agreement, to be entered into by the Company, the Purchase Contract Agent, as the purchase contract agent and as attorney-in-fact for the holders of the Equity Units, and the remarketing agents named therein (the “Remarketing Agents”) in such form and dated as of such date as to be determined by the parties thereto (the “Remarketing Agreement”), the Notes will be remarketed, subject to certain terms and conditions.

The “Component Securities” means, collectively, the Purchase Contracts, the Notes and the Issuable Common Stock. The terms and rights of any particular issuance of the Equity Units and/or Component Securities shall be specified in (i) the Indenture or (ii) the Purchase Contract and Pledge Agreement, as applicable (the documents listed in clauses (i) and (ii), together with the Remarketing Agreement, each a “Securities Agreement” and, collectively, the “Securities Agreements”).

Schedule 2 specifies the aggregate number of Corporate Units, the initial public offering price of the Corporate Units, and the purchase price to be paid by the Underwriters.

The Company hereby confirms its agreement with the several Underwriters concerning the purchase and sale of the Corporate Units, as follows:

The Company will next file with the Commission a final term sheet as contemplated by Section 4(b) hereof and a final prospectus supplement relating to the Equity Units in accordance with Rules 415 and 424(b). As filed, such final prospectus supplement shall contain all 430B Information, together with all other such required information, and, except to the extent the Representatives shall agree in writing to a modification, shall be in all substantive respects in the form furnished to you prior to the Execution Time or, to the extent not completed at the Execution Time, shall contain only such specific additional information and other changes (beyond that contained in the Base Prospectus, any Preliminary Prospectus and Schedule 1 hereto) as the Company has advised you, prior to the Execution Time, will be included or made therein. The Registration Statement, at the Execution Time, meets the requirements set forth in Rule 415(a)(1)(x).

(b) (i) At the time of filing the Registration Statement, (ii) at the time of the most recent amendment thereto for the purposes of complying with Section 10(a)(3) of the Act (whether such amendment was by post-effective amendment, incorporated report filed pursuant to Sections 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act or form of prospectus), (iii) at the time the Company or any person acting on its behalf (within the meaning, for this clause only, of Rule 163(c)) made any offer relating to the Equity Units in reliance on the exemption in Rule 163 and (iv) at the Execution Time (with such date being used as the determination date for purposes of this clause (iv)), the Company was or is (as the case may be) a “well-known seasoned issuer” as defined in Rule 405. The Company agrees to pay the fees required by the Commission relating to the Equity Units within the time required by Rule 456(b)(1) without regard to the proviso therein and otherwise in accordance with Rules 456(b) and 457(r).

(d) The Disclosure Package did not, as of the time and date designated as the “Applicable Time of Sale,” include an 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. The preceding sentence does not apply to statements in or omissions from the Disclosure Package based upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by any Underwriter through the Representatives specifically for use therein, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by or on behalf of any Underwriter consists of the information described as such in Section 6(b) hereof.

(e) The Company has not made and will not make (other than the final term sheet prepared and filed pursuant to Section 4(b) hereof) any offer relating to the Equity Units that would constitute a “free writing prospectus” (as defined in Rule 405 under the Act), without the prior written consent of the Representatives; the Company will comply with the requirements of Rule 433 under the Act with respect to any such free writing prospectus; any such free writing prospectus (including the final term sheet prepared and filed pursuant to Section 4(b) hereof) will not, as of its issue date and through the completion of the public offer and sale of the Equity Units, include any information that is inconsistent with the information contained in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus, and any such free writing prospectus, when taken together with the information contained in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus, did not, when issued or filed pursuant to Rule 433 under the Act, 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. For the purpose of clarity, nothing in this Section 1(e) shall restrict the Company from making any filings required in order to comply with its reporting obligations under the Exchange Act or the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder.

(f) At the earliest time after the filing of the Registration Statement that the Company or another offering participant (x) made a bona fide offer of the Equity Units (within the meaning of Rule 164(h)(2)) of the Act

and (y) as of the Execution Time (with such date being used as the determination date for purposes of this clause (y)), the Company was not and is not an Ineligible Issuer (as defined in Rule 405), without taking account of any determination by the Commission pursuant to Rule 405 that it is not necessary that the Company be considered an Ineligible Issuer.

The Company shall prepare a final term sheet, containing solely a description of the Equity Units, a copy of which shall be furnished to the Representatives for their review prior to filing.

(c) No Free Writing Prospectus. Each Underwriter, severally and not jointly, represents and agrees that, without the prior consent of the Company and the Representatives, it has not made and will not make any offer relating to the Corporate Units that would constitute a “free writing prospectus” (as defined in Rule 405 under the Act), other than the final term sheet prepared and filed pursuant to Section 4(b) hereof or any free writing prospectus that is not required to be filed by the Company pursuant to Rule 433 (including a preliminary Bloomberg screen containing substantially the same information, but in any event not more information, than the final term sheet prepared and filed pursuant to Section 4(b)).

(d) Amendments and Supplements. If, at any time when a prospectus relating to the Equity Units is required to be delivered under the Act (including circumstances when such requirement may be satisfied pursuant to Rule 172), any event occurs as a result of which the Final Prospectus as then supplemented would include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein in the light of the circumstances under which they were made not misleading, or if it shall be necessary to amend the Registration Statement or supplement the Final Prospectus to comply with the Act or the Exchange Act or the respective rules thereunder, the Company promptly will (1) notify the Representatives of such event, (2) prepare and file with the Commission, subject to the first sentence of paragraph (a) of this Section 4, an amendment or supplement which will correct such statement or omission or effect such compliance and (3) supply any supplemented Final Prospectus to you in such quantities as you may reasonably request.

necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances when the Disclosure Package is delivered to a purchaser, not misleading, the Company promptly will notify the Representatives so that any use of the Disclosure Package may cease until it is amended or supplemented, and will promptly prepare an amendment or supplement that will correct such statement or omission.

The Company shall have furnished to the Representatives a certificate of the Company, signed by two officers, who shall be any of the chief executive officer, the principal financial officer, the principal accounting officer, the chief strategy officer or the treasurer of the Company, dated the Closing Date and the Additional Closing Date (if any), to the effect that the signers of such certificate have carefully examined the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package, the Final Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto and that:

(i) the representations and warranties of the Company in this Agreement are true and correct on and as of the Closing Date and the Additional Closing Date (if any), as applicable, with the same effect as if made on the Closing Date or the Additional Closing Date (if any) and the Company has complied in all material respects with all the agreements and satisfied all the conditions on its part to be performed or satisfied at or prior to the Closing Date or the Additional Closing Date (if any);

Notice of such cancellation shall be given to the Company in writing or by telephone or facsimile confirmed in writing.

6. Indemnification and Contribution.

(a) Indemnification of the Underwriters. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter, each of their respective affiliates, directors and officers and each person, if any, who controls such Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which they or any of them may become subject under the Act, the Exchange Act or other Federal or state statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) (i) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the registration statement for the registration of the Equity Units as originally filed or in any amendment thereof, or arise out of or are based upon an omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or (ii) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact, in light of the circumstances in which it was made, or an omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading, in any Preliminary Prospectus, the Final Prospectus, or in any amendment or supplement thereto, or in any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or any “issuer information” filed or required to be filed pursuant to Rule 433(d) under the Act or any electronic roadshow or other written communication that constitutes an offer to sell or solicitation of an offer to buy the Shares provided to investors by, or with the approval of, the Company, and agrees to reimburse each such indemnified party, as incurred, for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made therein in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of any Underwriter through the Representatives specifically for inclusion therein.

(b) Indemnification of the Company. Each Underwriter, severally and not jointly, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers, and each person who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Company to each Underwriter, but only with reference to written information relating to such Underwriter, as applicable, furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Underwriter through the Representatives specifically for inclusion in the documents referred to in Section 6(a) above. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which any Underwriter may otherwise have. The Company acknowledges that (i) the statement set forth on the cover page regarding delivery of the Corporate Units and (ii) the paragraph under the heading “Underwriting - Stabilization” in any Preliminary Prospectus and the Final Prospectus constitute the only information furnished in writing by or on behalf of the several Underwriters for inclusion in any Preliminary Prospectus, the Final Prospectus or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus.

(c) Indemnification Procedures. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 6 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 6, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof; but the failure so to notify the indemnifying party (i) will not relieve it from liability under paragraph (a) or (b) above unless and to the extent it did not otherwise learn of such action and such failure results in the forfeiture by the indemnifying party of substantial rights and defenses and (ii) will not, in any event, relieve the indemnifying party from any obligations to any indemnified party other than the indemnification obligation provided in paragraph (a) or (b) above. The indemnifying party shall be entitled to appoint counsel of the indemnifying party’s choice at the indemnifying party’s expense to represent the indemnified party in any action for which indemnification is sought (in which case the indemnifying party shall not thereafter be responsible for the fees and expenses of any separate counsel retained by the indemnified party or parties except as set forth below); provided, however, that such counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. Notwithstanding the

indemnifying party’s election to appoint counsel to represent the indemnified party in an action, the indemnified party shall have the right to employ separate counsel (including local counsel), and the indemnifying party shall bear the reasonable fees, costs and expenses of such separate counsel if (i) the use of counsel chosen by the indemnifying party to represent the indemnified party would present such counsel with a conflict of interest, (ii) the actual or potential defendants in, or targets of, any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties which are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, (iii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice of the institution of such action or (iv) the indemnifying party shall authorize the indemnified party to employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party. An indemnifying party will not, without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties to such claim or action) unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such claim, action, suit or proceeding and does not include a statement as to, or admission of, fault, culpability or failure to act on behalf of any indemnified party.

(d) Contribution. In the event that the indemnity provided in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 6 is for any reason held to be unenforceable by an indemnified party or is insufficient to hold harmless a party indemnified under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 6, although applicable in accordance with its terms (including the requirements of Section 6(c) above), the Company, each Underwriter, severally agrees to contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending same) (collectively “Losses”) to which the Company and one or more of the Underwriters may be subject in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and by the Underwriters on the other from the offering of the Corporate Units; provided, however, that in no case shall any Underwriter be responsible for any amount in excess of the underwriting discount or commission applicable to the Corporate Units purchased by such Underwriter hereunder; provided, further, that each Underwriter’s obligation to contribute to Losses hereunder shall be several and not joint. If the allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is unavailable for any reason, the Company and the Underwriters, severally shall contribute in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and of the Underwriters on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such Losses as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. Benefits received by (i) the Company shall be deemed to be equal to the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received by it and (ii) the Underwriters shall be deemed to be equal to the total underwriting discounts and commissions, in each case as set forth on the cover page of the Final Prospectus. Relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any untrue or any alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information provided by the Company on the one hand or the Underwriters on the other, the intent of the parties and their relative knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission. The Company and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution were determined by pro rata allocation or any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above. Notwithstanding the provisions of this paragraph (d), no person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this Section 6, each person who controls an Underwriter within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act and each director, officer, employee and agent of an Underwriter shall have the same rights to contribution as such Underwriter and each person who controls the Company within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act, each officer of the Company and each director of the Company shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company, subject in each case to the applicable terms and conditions of this paragraph (d).

7. [Reserved]

8. Termination. This Agreement may be terminated in the absolute discretion of the Representatives by notice to the Company, if after the execution and delivery of this Agreement and prior to the Closing Date or, in the case of the Optional Corporate Units, prior to the Additional Closing Date (A) at any time prior to such time

(i) trading in the Common Stock or Corporate Units shall have been suspended by the Commission or the New York Stock Exchange or trading in securities generally on the New York Stock Exchange, the Chicago Board Options Exchange, the Chicago Mercantile Exchange or the Chicago Board of Trade, shall have been suspended or limited or minimum prices shall have been established on such exchanges, (ii) a banking moratorium shall have been declared either by federal or New York State authorities, (iii) a major disruption of settlements of securities or clearance services in the United States shall have occurred, (iv) there shall have occurred any outbreak or escalation of hostilities, declaration by the United States of a national emergency or war, or other calamity or crisis, (v) downgrading shall have occurred in the rating accorded the Company’s debt securities by any “nationally recognized statistical rating organization”, as that term is defined by the Commission for purposes of Section 3(a)(62) of the Exchange Act or (vi) such organization shall have publically announced that it has under surveillance or review, with possible negative implications, its rating of any of the Company’s debt securities and (B) the effect of the event as set forth in the foregoing clauses (iii) and (iv), as the case may be, on the financial markets is such as to make it, in the sole judgment of the Representatives, impractical or inadvisable to proceed with the offering or delivery of the Corporate Units as contemplated by the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus (exclusive of any supplement thereto).

9. Defaulting Underwriter.

(a) If any one or more Underwriters shall fail to purchase and pay for any of the Corporate Units agreed to be purchased by such Underwriter or Underwriters hereunder and such failure to purchase shall constitute a default in the performance of its or their obligations under this Agreement, the remaining Underwriters shall be obligated severally to take up and pay for (in the respective proportions which the principal amount of the Corporate Units set forth opposite their names in Schedule 1 hereto bears to the aggregate principal amount of the Corporate Units set forth opposite the names of all the remaining Underwriters) the Corporate Units which the defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase; provided, however, that in the event that the aggregate principal amount of the Corporate Units which the defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase shall exceed 10% of the aggregate principal amount of the Corporate Units set forth in Schedule 1 hereto, the remaining Underwriters shall have the right to purchase all, but shall not be under any obligation to purchase any, of the Corporate Units the defaulting Underwriter failed to purchase.

(b) If the non-defaulting Underwriters are not obligated to and do not purchase all the Corporate Units the defaulting Underwriter failed to purchase, the Company shall be entitled to a period of 36 hours within which to procure other persons reasonably satisfactory to the non-defaulting Underwriters to purchase such Shares and if arrangements for the purchase of such Shares by other persons selected by the Company and reasonably satisfactory to the Representative are not made within 36 hours after such default, this Agreement will terminate without liability to any non-defaulting Underwriter or the Company unless the Company elects to reduce the principal amount of the Corporate Units to be offered by the amount of the Corporate Units that the defaulting Underwriter failed to purchase, in which event the non-defaulting Underwriters will have the right to purchase all, but shall not be under any obligation to purchase any, of such reduced principal amount of the Corporate Units. In the event the non-defaulting Underwriters decline to purchase all of such reduced principal amount of the Corporate Units, this Agreement will terminate without any liability on the part of the non-defaulting Underwriters or the Company.

(c) In the event of a default by any Underwriter as set forth in this Section 9, the Closing Date shall be postponed for such period, not exceeding five Business Days, as the Representatives shall determine in order that the required changes in the Registration Statement and the Final Prospectus or in any other documents or arrangements may be effected. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall relieve any defaulting Underwriter of its liability, if any, to the Company and any non-defaulting Underwriter for damages occasioned by its default hereunder.

10. Payment of Expenses.

(a) Whether or not the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Securities Agreements are consummated or this Agreement or the Securities Agreements are terminated, the Company will pay or cause to be paid all costs and expenses incident to the performance of its obligations under this Agreement and the Securities Agreements, including without limitation, (i) the costs incident to the authorization, issuance, sale, preparation and delivery of the Corporate Units and any taxes payable in that connection; (ii) the costs incident to the preparation, printing and filing under the Act of the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing

Prospectus, the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus (including all exhibits, amendments and supplements thereto) and the distribution thereof; (iii) the costs of reproducing and distributing each of the Agreement and the Securities Agreements; (iv) the fees and expenses of the Company’s counsel and independent accountants; (v) the fees and expenses incurred in connection with the registration or qualification of the Corporate Units under the state or foreign securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as the Representatives may designate and the preparation, printing and distribution of a Blue Sky Memorandum (including the related reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for the Underwriters); (vi) the cost of preparing stock certificates; (vii) the costs and charges of any transfer agent and any registrar; (viii) all expenses and application fees incurred in connection with any filing with, and clearance of the offering by, FINRA (including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to the Underwriters); (ix) all expenses incurred by the Company or the Underwriters in connection with any “road show” presentation to potential investors; (x) any fees and expenses of the Trustee, the Purchase Contract Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Custodial Agent, the Securities Intermediary and of each Remarketing Agent and (xi) all expenses and application fees related to the listing of any Corporate Units on the New York Stock Exchange. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that, except as expressly provided in Sections 6 and 10(b), the Underwriters will pay all of their own costs and expenses, including, without limitation, fees and disbursements of their counsel (other than for blue sky and FINRA matters provided above in this Section 10(a)), and transfer taxes on the resale by them of any of the Corporate Units.

(b) If (i) this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 8, (ii) the Company for any reason fails to tender the Corporate Units, if any, for delivery to the Underwriters or (iii) the Underwriters decline to purchase the Corporate Units for any reason permitted under this Agreement, the Company agrees to reimburse the Underwriters for all out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including the fees and expenses of their counsel) reasonably incurred by the Underwriters in connection with the this Agreement, the Securities Agreements and the transactions contemplated thereby, and the Company shall not in any event be liable to any of the Underwriters for any other amount, including, without limitation, damages on account of loss of anticipated profits from the sale of the Corporate Units.

11. Representations and Warranties to Survive. The respective agreements, representations, warranties, indemnities and other statements of the Company or its officers and of the Underwriters set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement will remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any Underwriter or the Company or any of the officers, directors, employees, agents or controlling persons referred to in Section 6 hereof, and will survive delivery of and payment for the Corporate Units. The provisions of Sections 6 and 10 hereof shall survive the termination or cancellation of this Agreement.

The Company and the Underwriters acknowledge that the Underwriters’ research analysts and research departments are required to be independent from their respective investment banking divisions and are subject to certain regulations and internal policies, and that such Underwriters’ research analysts may hold views and make statements or investment recommendations and/or publish research reports with respect to the Company and/or the offering of the Corporate Units that differ from the views of their respective investment banking divisions. The Company hereby waives and releases, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims that the Company may have against the Underwriters with respect to any conflict of interest that may arise from the fact that the views expressed by their independent research analysts and research departments may be different from or inconsistent with the views or advice communicated to the Company by such

Underwriters’ investment banking divisions. The Company acknowledges that each of the Underwriters is a full service securities firm and as such from time to time, subject to applicable securities laws, may effect transactions for its own account or the account of its customers and hold long or short positions in debt securities of the Company.

15. Patriot Act Acknowledgment. The parties hereto acknowledge that in accordance with the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub.

16. No Fiduciary Duty. The Company hereby acknowledges that (a) the purchase and sale of the Corporate Units pursuant to this Agreement is an arm’s-length commercial transaction between the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriters and any affiliate thereof through which it may be acting, on the other, (b) the Underwriters are acting as principals and not as agents or fiduciaries of the Company and (c) the Company’s engagement of the Underwriters in connection with the offering and the process leading up to the offering is as independent contractors and not in any other capacity. Furthermore, the Company agrees that it is solely responsible for making its own judgments in connection with the offering (irrespective of whether any of the Underwriters has advised or is currently advising the Company on related or other matters). The Company agrees that it will not claim that the Underwriters have rendered advisory services of any nature or respect, or owe an agency, fiduciary or similar duty to the Company, in connection with such transaction or the process leading thereto.

To the extent execution and delivery are matters of the laws of the State of New York, the Indenture has been duly executed and delivered and, assuming due authorization, execution and delivery under laws other than Specified Laws, is a valid instrument, legally binding on the Company and enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms.

To the extent execution and delivery are matters of the laws of the State of New York, the Corporate Units have been duly executed and delivered by the Company, and assuming due authorization, execution and delivery by the Company under laws other than the Specified Laws, when executed and authenticated by the Purchase Contract Agent pursuant to the Purchase Contract and Pledge Agreement, will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms.

To the extent execution and delivery are matters of the laws of the State of New York, the Notes have been duly executed and delivered by the Company, and assuming due authorization, execution and delivery by the Company under laws other than the Specified Laws, and when paid for in accordance with the Indenture and executed and authenticated by the Trustee pursuant to the Indenture, will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms.

The issuance and sale of the Corporate Units and the execution and delivery and the performance of obligations contemplated under the Agreement and the Securities Agreements, do not and will not (i) result in any breach of any of the terms and provisions of, or constitute a default (or an event which with notice or lapse of time, or both, would constitute a default) under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any property or assets of the Company or any of its subsidiaries pursuant to any Specified Contracts it being expressly understood that in each case we express no opinion as to compliance with any financial covenant or test or cross-default provision in any Specified Contract, (ii) violate or conflict with any judgment, decree or order identified to us by the Company (we note that none were identified) of any court or any judicial, regulatory or other legal or governmental agency or body having jurisdiction over the Company or any of its subsidiaries or any of their properties, and (iii) violate any Specified Law, except in each of the cases of clauses (i) and (ii), for any such conflict, breach, violation or default which has been waived by the party or parties with power to waive such conflict, breach, violation or default.

Based on the foregoing (relying as to matters of fact to a large extent on statements of officers and other representatives of the Company), we can advise you that nothing has come to our attention that has caused us to conclude that (a) the Registration Statement, as of June [—], 2014, contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, (b) the Disclosure Package as of the Applicable Time of Sale on June 11, 2014, contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state any 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) the Final Prospectus as of the date of the Prospectus Supplement and the date hereof, contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.
