The Selling Stockholder, solely in its capacity as a Selling Stockholder, represents and warrants to and agrees with each of the Underwriters and the Company that:

(a) Selling Stockholder Information. The Selling Stockholder Information in the Registration Statement, Time of Sale Prospectus and Prospectus at the Applicable Time is, and on the Closing Date will be, true, correct and complete in all material respects and did not, as of the Applicable Time, and as of the Closing Date, will not, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the case of the Time of Sale Prospectus and the Prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

(b) Share Transfer. As of the Closing Date or the Additional Closing Date, as the case may be, assuming the Debt-for-Equity Exchange is consummated, the Selling Stockholder will be the beneficial owner of the Shares to be sold by it hereunder free and clear of all liens, encumbrances, equities and claims, and as of the Closing Date or the Additional Closing Date, as the case may be, and upon the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, such Shares will be free and clear of all liens, encumbrances, equities and claims. Upon payment of the Shares to be sold by the Selling Stockholder hereunder, delivery of such Shares and the crediting of such shares on the books of The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) to securities accounts of the several Underwriters (assuming that neither DTC nor any such Underwriter has notice (as defined in Section 8-105 of the New York Uniform Commercial Code (“UCC”)) of any adverse claim (within the meaning of Section 8-102(a)(1) of the UCC) to such Shares), then, assuming appropriate entries to the accounts of the several Underwriters on the records of DTC have been made pursuant to the UCC, the Underwriters will have acquired a security entitlement (within the meaning of Section 8-102(a)(17) of the UCC) to such Shares and no action based on an adverse claim (within the meaning of Section 8-102(a)(1) of the UCC) may be asserted against such Underwriters with respect to such security entitlement.

(c) The Underwriting Agreement. This Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by or on behalf of the Selling Stockholder.

(d) No Further Authorizations or Approvals Required. No filing with, or authorization, approval, consent, license, order, registration, qualification or decree of, any Governmental Entity is necessary or required for the performance by the Selling Stockholder of its obligations under the Transaction Documents and the Shares, in connection with the offering, issuance or sale of the Shares or the consummation of the transactions contemplated in the Transaction Documents or the Shares, except for such consents, approvals, authorizations, registrations or qualifications as may be required under state securities or Blue Sky laws in connection with the purchase and distribution of the Shares by the Underwriters.

3. Agreements to Sell and Purchase. If GE executes, delivers and performs its obligations pursuant to the Exchange Agreement prior to the Closing Date (including, for the avoidance of doubt, all payments to the Selling Stockholder required pursuant to the Exchange Agreement), the Selling Stockholder hereby agrees to sell to the several Underwriters, and each Underwriter, upon the basis of the representations and warranties herein contained, but subject to the conditions hereinafter stated, agrees, severally and not jointly, to purchase from the Selling Stockholder at $87.27 per Share (the “Purchase Price”) the number of Firm Shares (subject to such adjustments to eliminate fractional shares as you may determine) determined by multiplying the aggregate number of Firm Shares to be sold by the Selling Stockholder by a fraction, the numerator of which is the aggregate number of Firm Shares to be purchased by such Underwriter as set forth opposite the name of such Underwriter in Schedule I hereto and the denominator of which is the aggregate number of Firm Shares to be purchased by all the Underwriters from the Selling Stockholder hereunder.

On the basis of the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement, and subject to its terms and conditions, the Selling Stockholder agrees to sell to the Underwriters, and the Underwriters shall have the right to purchase, severally and not jointly, at the Purchase Price up to the applicable number of Additional Shares, if any,

provided, however, that the amount paid by the Underwriters for any Additional Shares shall be reduced by an amount per share equal to any dividends declared by the Company and payable on the Firm Shares but not payable on such Additional Shares. You may exercise this right on behalf of the Underwriters in whole or from time to time in part by giving written notice to the Company and the Selling Stockholder on or before March 26, 2024. Any exercise notice shall specify the number of Additional Shares to be purchased by the Underwriters and the date on which such shares are to be purchased. The number of Additional Shares (subject to such adjustments to eliminate fractional shares as you may determine) to be sold by the Selling Stockholder, if any, to each Underwriter shall be determined by multiplying the aggregate number of Additional Shares to be sold by the Selling Stockholder, if any, by a fraction, the numerator of which is the aggregate number of Additional Shares to be purchased by such Underwriter and the denominator of which is the aggregate number of Additional Shares to be purchased by all the Underwriters from the Selling Stockholder pursuant to the exercise notice. Each purchase date must be at least two business days after the written notice is given and may not be earlier than the closing date for the Firm Shares nor later than two business days after the date of such notice. Additional Shares may be purchased as provided in Section 5 hereof. On each day, if any, that Additional Shares are to be purchased (an “Option Closing Date”), each Underwriter agrees, severally and not jointly, to purchase the number of Additional Shares (subject to such adjustments to eliminate fractional shares as you may determine) that bears the same proportion to the total number of Additional Shares to be purchased on such Option Closing Date as the number of Firm Shares set forth in Schedule I hereto opposite the name of such Underwriter bears to the total number of Firm Shares. Any such election to purchase Additional Shares shall be made in proportion to the maximum number of Additional Shares to be sold by the Selling Stockholder.

The Company hereby agrees that, without the prior written consent of the Representative on behalf of the Underwriters, it will not, during the period ending on May 13, 2024 (the “Restricted Period”), (a) offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, lend, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any shares of any class of stock of the Company (collectively, the “Restricted Securities”) or any other securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for any Restricted Securities; or (b) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of any Restricted Securities, whether any such transaction described in clause (a) or (b) above is to be settled by delivery of Restricted Securities or such other securities, in cash or otherwise; (c) file any registration statement with the Commission relating to the offering of any Restricted Securities or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for any Restricted Securities or (d) publicly announce any intention to engage in any of the transactions described in clauses (a) through (c) above.

The restrictions contained in the preceding paragraph shall not apply to (a) the Shares to be sold by the Selling Stockholder hereunder, (b) the issuance by the Company of shares of Common Stock upon the conversion or exchange of convertible or exchangeable securities outstanding as of the date of this Agreement, (c) the issuance by the Company of options to purchase shares of Common Stock and other equity incentive compensation, including restricted stock or restricted stock units, under stock option or similar plans described in the Time of Sale Prospectus or under stock option or similar plans of companies acquired by the Company in effect as of the date of this Agreement, (d) any shares of Common Stock issued upon the exercise of options granted under such stock option or similar plans described in the Time of Sale Prospectus or under stock option or similar plans of companies acquired by the Company in effect on the date of this Agreement, (e) the filing by the Company of any registration statement on Form S-8 with the Commission relating to the offering of securities pursuant to the terms of such stock option or similar plans, or (f) the issuance by the Company of Common Stock or securities convertible into Common Stock in connection with an acquisition or business combination (including the filing of a registration statement on Form S-4 or other appropriate form with respect thereto), provided that the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock the Company may issue or agree to issue pursuant to this clause (f) during the Restricted Period shall not exceed 5% of the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding on the closing date of the offering of the Shares and provided further that, in the case of any issuance pursuant to this clause (f), any recipient of shares of Common Stock shall have executed and delivered to the Representative a lock-up agreement in the forms attached as Exhibit A hereto.

4. Terms of Public Offering. The Selling Stockholder is advised by you that the Underwriters propose to make a public offering of their respective portions of the Shares as soon after the Registration Statement and this Agreement have become effective as in your judgment is advisable. The Selling Stockholder is further advised by you that the Shares are to be offered to the public at a variable price per Share (the “Public Offering Price”).

5. Payment and Delivery. Payment for the Firm Shares to be sold by the Selling Stockholder shall be made to the Selling Stockholder in Federal or other funds immediately available in New York City against delivery of such Firm Shares for the respective accounts of the several Underwriters at 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on March 15, 2024, or at such other time on the same or such other date, not later than the fifth business day thereafter, as shall be designated in writing by you. The time and date of such payment are hereinafter referred to as the “Closing Date.”

Payment for any Additional Shares to be sold by the Selling Stockholder shall be made to the Selling Stockholder in Federal or other funds immediately available in New York City against delivery of such Additional Shares for the respective accounts of the several Underwriters at 10:00 a.m. New York City time, on the date specified in the corresponding notice described in Section 3 or at such other time on the same or on such other date, in any event not later than March 28, 2024, as shall be designated in writing by you.

The Firm Shares and Additional Shares shall be registered in such names and in such denominations as you shall request in writing not later than one full business day prior to the Closing Date or the applicable Option Closing Date, as the case may be. The Firm Shares and Additional Shares shall be delivered to you on the Closing Date or an Option Closing Date, as the case may be, for the respective accounts of the several Underwriters. The Purchase Price payable by the Underwriters shall be reduced by (i) any transfer taxes paid by, or on behalf of, the Underwriters in connection with the transfer of the Shares to the Underwriters and (ii) any withholding required by law.

6. Conditions. The several obligations of the Selling Stockholder to sell the Shares, to the Underwriters and the several obligations of the Underwriters to purchase and pay for the Shares on the Closing Date are subject to the conditions that the Registration Statement shall have become effective prior to the date hereof.

Each Underwriter severally agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, each of its officers who signed the Registration Statement, and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, and GE and each person, if any, who controls GE within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense 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), including the Rule 430B Information, any preliminary prospectus, any free writing prospectus, the Time of Sale Prospectus or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) in reliance upon and in conformity with the Underwriter Information. The Company hereby acknowledges that the only information furnished to the Company by any Underwriter through the Representative expressly for use in the Registration Statement, including the Rule 430B Information, any preliminary prospectus, any free writing prospectus, the Time of Sale Prospectus or the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto are the following statements set forth in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Prospectus, the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto: (A) the first, second, fifth, sixth, and ninth sentences under the heading “Price Stabilization and Short Positions” under the caption “Underwriting (Conflicts of Interest)”, and (B) the first, second, and sixth sentences in the eight paragraph under the caption “Plan of Distribution (Conflicts of Interest)” (collectively, the “Underwriter Information”) in the Prospectus.

(e) Actions against Parties; Notification. Each indemnified party shall give notice as promptly as reasonably practicable to each indemnifying party of any action commenced against it in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder, but failure to so notify an indemnifying party shall not relieve such indemnifying party from any liability hereunder to the extent it is not materially prejudiced as a result thereof and in any event shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have otherwise than on account of this indemnity agreement. In the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section 11(a), 11(b) and 11(c) above, counsel to the indemnified parties shall be selected by the Representative, and, in the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section 11(d) above, counsel to the indemnified parties shall be selected by the Company. 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, effect the settlement or compromise of, 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 11 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.

(f) 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 11(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 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.

(g) [Reserved].

(h) Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in Section 11(a) through (f) above 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 in one regard, GE in the second regard, the Selling Stockholder, in the third regard, and the Underwriters, in the fourth regard, 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 in one regard, GE in the second regard, the Selling Stockholder, in the third regard, and the Underwriters, in the fourth regard, 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 Selling Stockholder, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, 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 the total net proceeds from the offering of the Shares pursuant to this Agreement (before deducting expenses) received by the Selling Stockholder, on the one hand, and the total price at which the Shares underwritten by the Underwriters and distributed to the public were offered to the public, on the other hand, in each case as set forth on the cover of the Prospectus, bear to the aggregate initial public offering price of the Shares as set forth on the cover of the Prospectus; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, the parties hereto agree that the Company will not be receiving any net proceeds from the offering of the Shares pursuant to this Agreement.

The relative fault of the Company in one regard, GE in the second regard, the Selling Stockholder, in the third regard, and the Underwriters, in the fourth regard, 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 in one regard, GE in the second regard, the Selling Stockholder, in the third regard, and the Underwriters, in the fourth regard, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

The Company, GE, the Selling Stockholder and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 11(h) were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Underwriters were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above in this Section 11(h). The aggregate amount of losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses incurred by an indemnified party and referred to above in this Section 11(h) 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 11(h), no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the underwriting commissions received by such Underwriter in connection with the Shares underwritten by it and distributed to the public.

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

For purposes of this Section 11(h), each person, if any, who controls an Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act and each Underwriter’s Affiliates and selling agents shall have the same rights to contribution as such Underwriter, 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 or GE within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company or GE, as the case may be. The Underwriters’ respective obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 11(h) are several in proportion to the number of Firm Shares set forth opposite their respective names in Schedule I hereto and not joint.

12. Termination. The Underwriters may terminate this Agreement by notice given by you to the Company, if after the execution and delivery of this Agreement and prior to the Closing Date (i) trading generally shall have been suspended or materially limited on, or by, as the case may be, any of The New York Stock Exchange, the NYSE MKT, the NASDAQ Global Market, the Chicago Board of Options Exchange, the Chicago Mercantile Exchange or the Chicago Board of Trade, (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 change in financial markets or any calamity or crisis that, in your judgment, is material and adverse and which, singly or together with any other event specified in this clause (v), makes it, in your 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 Time of Sale Prospectus or the Prospectus.

13. Effectiveness; Defaulting Underwriters. This Agreement shall become effective upon the execution and delivery hereof by the parties hereto.

If, on the Closing Date or an Option Closing Date, as the case may be, any one or more of the Underwriters shall fail or refuse to purchase Shares that it has or they have agreed to purchase hereunder on such date, and the aggregate number of Shares which such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed or refused to purchase is not more than one-tenth of the aggregate number of the Shares to be purchased on such date, the other Underwriters shall be obligated severally in the proportions that the number of Firm Shares set forth opposite their respective names in Schedule I bears to the aggregate number of Firm Shares set forth opposite the names of all such non-defaulting Underwriters, or in such other proportions as you may specify, to purchase the Shares which such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed or refused to purchase on such date; provided that in no event shall the number of Shares that any Underwriter has agreed to purchase pursuant to this Agreement be increased pursuant to this Section 13 by an amount in excess of one-ninth of such number of Shares without the written consent of such Underwriter. If, on the Closing Date, any Underwriter or Underwriters shall fail or refuse to purchase Firm Shares and the aggregate number of Firm Shares with respect to which such default occurs is more than one-tenth of the aggregate number of Firm Shares to be purchased on such date, and arrangements satisfactory

to you, the Company and the Selling Stockholder for the purchase of such Firm Shares are not made within 36 hours after such default, this Agreement shall terminate without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Underwriter, the Company or the Selling Stockholder. In any such case you as Representative shall have the right to postpone the Closing Date, but in no event for longer than seven days, in order that the required changes, if any, in the Registration Statement, in the Time of Sale Prospectus, in the Prospectus or in any other documents or arrangements may be effected. If, on an Option Closing Date, any Underwriter or Underwriters shall fail or refuse to purchase Additional Shares and the aggregate number of Additional Shares with respect to which such default occurs is more than one-tenth of the aggregate number of Additional Shares to be purchased on such Option Closing Date, the non-defaulting Underwriters shall have the option to (i) terminate their obligation hereunder to purchase the Additional Shares to be sold on such Option Closing Date or (ii) purchase not less than the number of Additional Shares that such non-defaulting Underwriters would have been obligated to purchase in the absence of such default. Any action taken under this paragraph shall not relieve any defaulting Underwriter from liability in respect of any default of such Underwriter under this Agreement.

If (i) this Agreement is terminated pursuant to clause (ii) of Section 12 or (ii) the Underwriters decline to purchase the Shares for any reason permitted under this Agreement (other than as a result of the circumstances set forth in clause (i), (iii), (iv) or (v) of Section 12 or as set forth in Section 13), the Company agrees to reimburse the Underwriters for all out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including the documented fees and expenses of their counsel) reasonably incurred and documented by the Underwriters in connection with this Agreement and the offering contemplated hereby.

14. Recognition of the U.S. Special Resolution Regimes. (a) In the event that any Underwriter that is a Covered Entity becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer from such Underwriter of this Agreement, and any interest and obligation in or under this Agreement, will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement, and any such interest and obligation, were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.

(b) In the event that any Underwriter that is a Covered Entity or a BHC Act Affiliate of such Underwriter becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under this Agreement that may be exercised against such Underwriter are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.

For purposes of this Section 14, a “BHC Act Affiliate” has the meaning assigned to the term “affiliate” in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. § 1841(k). “Covered Entity” means any of the following: (i) a “covered entity” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 252.82(b); (ii) a “covered bank” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 47.3(b); or (iii) a “covered FSI” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 382.2(b). “Default Right” has the meaning assigned to that term in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §§ 252.81, 47.2 or 382.1, as applicable. “U.S. Special Resolution Regime” means each of (i) the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder and (ii) Title II of the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder.

15. Entire Agreement. (a) The Transaction Documents supersede all prior agreements and understandings (whether written or oral) between the Company, GE, the Selling Stockholder and the Underwriters, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof.

(b) The Company acknowledges that in connection with the offering of the Shares: (i) the Underwriters have acted at arm’s length, are not agents of, and owe no fiduciary duties to, the Company or any other person, (ii) the Underwriters owe the Company only those duties and obligations set forth in this Agreement and prior written agreements (to the extent not superseded by this Agreement), if any, (iii) the Underwriters may have interests that differ from those of the Company, and (iv) although the Underwriters may provide certain Regulation Best Interest documentation in connection with the offering, the Underwriters are not making a recommendation to participate in the offering or sell any Shares at the price determined in the offering and nothing set forth in such disclosures or documentation is intended to suggest that any Underwriter is making such a recommendation. The Company waives to the full extent permitted by applicable law any claims it may have against the Underwriters arising from an alleged breach of fiduciary duty in connection with the offering of the Shares.

16. Counterparts and Electronic Signatures. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same Agreement. Electronic signatures complying with the New York Electronic Signatures and Records Act (N.Y. State Tech. §§ 301-309), as amended from time to time, or other applicable law will be deemed original signatures for purposes of this Agreement. Transmission by telecopy, electronic mail or other transmission method of an executed counterpart of this Agreement will constitute due and sufficient delivery of such counterpart.

17. Applicable Law. This Agreement, and any claim, controversy or dispute arising under or related to this Agreement, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to its conflicts of laws principles.

18. Headings. The headings of the sections of this Agreement have been inserted for convenience of reference only and shall not be deemed a part of this Agreement.
