As Representatives of the several Underwriters

Ladies and Gentlemen:

Healthpeak Properties, Inc. (formerly HCP, Inc.), a Maryland corporation (the “Company”), confirms its agreement with each of the Underwriters named in Schedule A hereto (collectively, the “Underwriters,” which term shall also include any underwriter substituted as hereinafter provided in Section 10 hereof), for whom Xxxxx Fargo Securities, LLC, Barclays Capital Inc., BofA Securities, Inc. and Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx & Co. LLC are acting as representatives (the “Representatives”), with respect to the issue and sale by the Company and the purchase by the Underwriters, acting severally and not jointly, of the respective amounts set forth in such Schedule A of $600,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 2.875% Senior Notes Due 2031 (the “Securities”). The Securities are to be issued pursuant to an indenture, dated November 19, 2012 (the “Base Indenture”), between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. as trustee (the “Trustee”), as supplemented by the Tenth Supplemental Indenture between the Company and the Trustee to be dated as of June 23, 2020 (the “Supplemental Indenture” and together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”).

The Company has filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) an automatic shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (No. 333-225318), which registration statement became effective upon filing under Rule 462(e) of the rules and regulations of the Commission (the “1933 Act Regulations”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”). Such registration statement covers the registration of the Securities (among other securities) under the 1933 Act. Such registration statement, in the form in which it became effective, as amended through the date hereof, including the information deemed pursuant to Rule 430B under the 1933 Act Regulations to be part of the registration statement at the time of its effectiveness (“Rule 430B Information”) and all documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference therein through the date hereof, is hereinafter referred to as the “Registration Statement.” The Company proposes to file with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the 1933 Act Regulations the Prospectus Supplement (as defined in Section 3(k) hereof) relating to the Securities and the prospectus, dated May 31, 2018 (the “Base Prospectus”), and has previously advised you of all further information (financial and other) with respect to the Company set forth therein. The Base Prospectus together with the Prospectus Supplement, in their respective forms on the date hereof (being the forms in which they are to be filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the 1933 Act Regulations), including all documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference therein through the date hereof, are hereinafter referred to as, collectively, the “Prospectus,” except that if any revised prospectus or prospectus supplement shall be provided to you by the Company for use in connection with the offering and sale of the Securities which differs from the Prospectus (whether or not such revised prospectus or prospectus supplement is required to be filed by the Company pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the 1933 Act Regulations), the term “Prospectus” shall refer to such revised prospectus or prospectus supplement, as the case may be, from and after the time it is first provided to you for such use. The term “Pre-Pricing Prospectus,” as used in this Agreement, means the preliminary prospectus supplement dated June 9, 2020 and filed with the Commission on June 9, 2020 pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the 1933 Act Regulations, together with the Base Prospectus used with such preliminary prospectus supplement in connection with the marketing of the Securities, in each case as amended or supplemented by the Company. Unless the context otherwise requires, all references in this Agreement to documents, financial statements and schedules and other information which is “contained,” “included,” “stated,” “described in” or “referred to” in the Registration Statement, the Pre-Pricing Prospectus or the Prospectus (and all other references of like import) shall be deemed to mean and include all such documents, financial statements and schedules and other information which is or is deemed to be incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, the Pre-Pricing Prospectus or the Prospectus as the case may be; and all references in this Agreement to amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement, the Pre-Pricing Prospectus or the Prospectus shall be deemed to mean and include the filing of any document under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “1934 Act”), after the date of this Agreement which is or is deemed to be incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, the Pre-Pricing Prospectus or the Prospectus, as the case may be.

The Company understands that the Underwriters propose to make a public offering of the Securities as soon as the Representatives deem advisable after this Agreement has been executed and delivered.

At or prior to the time when sales of the Securities were first made (such time, the “Time of Sale”), the Company had prepared the following information (collectively the “Time of Sale Information”): the Pre-Pricing Prospectus and each “free-writing prospectus” (as defined pursuant to Rule 405 of the 1933 Act Regulations) listed on Exhibit B hereto.

Section 1. Representations and Warranties.

(a) The Company represents and warrants to each Underwriter as of the date hereof (such date being hereinafter referred to as the “Representation Date”), as of the Time of Sale and as of Closing Time referred to in Section 2 as follows:

(i) Pre-Pricing Prospectus. No order preventing or suspending the use of the Pre-Pricing Prospectus has been issued by the Commission, and each Pre-Pricing Prospectus, at the time of filing thereof, complied in all material respects with the 1933 Act and did not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, however, that the representations and warranties in this subsection (i) shall not apply to statements in or omissions from the Pre-Pricing Prospectus made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to the Company in writing by any Underwriter through the Representatives expressly for use in any Pre-Pricing Prospectus.

(ii) Time of Sale Information. The Time of Sale Information, at the Time of Sale did not, and at Closing Time 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 light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, however, that the representations and warranties in this subsection (ii) shall not apply to statements in or omissions from the Time of Sale Information made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to the Company in writing by any Underwriter through the Representatives expressly for use in such Time of Sale Information. No statement of material fact included (or to be included) in the Prospectus will be omitted from the Time of Sale Information and no statement of material fact included in the Time of Sale Information that is required to be included in the Prospectus will be omitted therefrom.

(iii) Issuer Free Writing Prospectus. The Company (including its agents and representatives, other than the Underwriters in their capacity as such) has not prepared, made, used, authorized, approved or referred to and will not prepare, make, use, authorize, approve or refer to any “written communication” (as defined in Rule 405 of the 1933 Act Regulations) that constitutes an offer to sell or solicitation of an offer to buy the Securities (each such communication by the Company or its agents and representatives other than the Underwriters in their capacity as such (other than a communication referred to in clauses (A), (B) and (C) below) an “Issuer Free Writing Prospectus”) other than (A) any document not constituting a prospectus pursuant to Section 2(a)(10)(a) of the 1933 Act or Rule 134 of the 1933 Act Regulations, (B) the Pre-Pricing Prospectus, (C) the Prospectus, (D) the documents listed on Exhibit B hereto as constituting part of the Time of Sale Information and (E) any electronic road show or other written communications, in each case approved in writing in advance by the Representatives. Each such Issuer Free Writing Prospectus complied in all material respects with the 1933 Act, has been or will be (within the time period specified in Rule 433 of the 1933 Act Regulations) filed (to the extent required thereby) in accordance with the 1933 Act and when taken together with the Pre-Pricing Prospectus accompanying, or delivered prior to delivery of, such Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, did not, and at Closing Time 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 light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, however, that the representations and warranties in this subsection (iii) shall not apply to statements in or omissions from any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to the Company in writing by any Underwriter through the Representatives expressly for use in any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus. Each Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, as of its issue date and at all subsequent times through the completion of the public offer and sale of the Securities or until any earlier date that the Company notified or notifies the Representatives as described in Section 3(f), did not, does not and will not include any information that conflicted, conflicts or will conflict with the information contained in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or any Pre-Pricing Prospectus that has not been superseded or modified.

(iv) Compliance with Registration Requirements. The Registration Statement is an “automatic shelf registration statement” as defined under Rule 405 of the 1933 Act Regulations that has been filed with the Commission not earlier than three years prior to the date hereof; and no notice of objection of the Commission to the use of such Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto pursuant to Rule 401(g)(2) of the 1933 Act Regulations has been received by the Company. Each of the Registration Statement and the Base Prospectus, at the respective times the Registration Statement and any post-effective amendments thereto became effective and as of the Representation Date, complied and comply in all material respects with the requirements of the 1933 Act and the 1933 Act Regulations (including Rule 415(a) of the 1933 Act Regulations), and the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the “1939 Act”), and the rules and regulations of the Commission under the 1939 Act (the “1939 Act Regulations”), and did not and as of the Representation Date and at Closing Time do 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. No order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has been issued under the 1933 Act and no proceedings for that purpose or pursuant to Section 8A of the 1933 Act against the Company or related to the offering of the Securities have been instituted or are pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, are contemplated by the Commission, and any request on the part of the Commission for additional information has been complied with. The Prospectus, at the Representation Date (unless the term “Prospectus” refers to a prospectus which has been provided to the Underwriters by the Company for use in connection with the offering of the Securities which differs from the Prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the 1933 Act Regulations, in which case at the time it is first provided to the Underwriters for such use) and at Closing Time, does not and will not 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; provided, however, that the representations and warranties in this subsection (iv) shall not apply to statements in or omissions from the Registration Statement or Prospectus made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to the Company in writing by any Underwriter through the Representatives expressly for use in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or the information contained in any Statement of Eligibility and Qualification of a trustee under the 1939 Act filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement (a “Form T-1”). For purposes of this Section 1(a), all references to the Registration Statement, any post-effective amendments thereto and the Prospectus shall be deemed to include, without limitation, any electronically transmitted copies thereof filed with the Commission pursuant to its Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis, and Retrieval system or its Interactive Data Electronic Applications system (collectively, “XXXXX”).

(v) Incorporated Documents. The documents filed by the Company and incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference into the Registration Statement, the Prospectus and the Time of Sale Information pursuant to Item 12 of Form S-3 under the 1933 Act, at the time they were or hereafter are filed with the Commission, complied and will comply in all material respects with the requirements of the 1934 Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder (the “1934 Act Regulations”), and, when read together and with the other information in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus and the Time of Sale Information, at the respective times the Registration Statement and any amendments thereto became effective, at the Representation Date, the Time of Sale and at the Closing Time, did not, do not and will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

(xvi) Authorization of Underwriting Agreement. This Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company and, upon execution and delivery by you, will be a valid and legally binding agreement of the Company.

(xvii) Authorization of Indenture. The Base Indenture has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company. The Supplemental Indenture has been duly authorized and, at Closing Time, will have been duly executed and delivered by the Company, and when duly executed and delivered by the Trustee, the Indenture will constitute a valid and legally binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, except as the enforcement thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws relating to or affecting creditor’s rights generally or by general equitable principles. The Indenture has been duly qualified under the 1939 Act.

(xviii) Authorization of the Securities. The Securities have been duly authorized and, at Closing Time, will have been duly executed by the Company and, when authenticated in the manner provided for in the Indenture and delivered against payment of the purchase price therefor specified in this Agreement, will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms, except as the enforcement thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally or by general equitable principles, and will be in the form contemplated by, and entitled to the benefits of, the Indenture.

(xix) Description of the Securities. The Securities and the Indenture will conform in all material respects to the respective statements relating thereto contained in the Prospectus and will be in substantially the respective forms filed or incorporated by reference, as the case may be, as exhibits to the Registration Statement.

(xx) Seniority of the Securities. The Securities rank and will rank on a parity with all unsecured indebtedness (other than subordinated indebtedness) of the Company that is outstanding on the date hereof or that may be incurred hereafter, and senior to any subordinated indebtedness of the Company that is outstanding on the date hereof or that may be incurred hereafter.

(xxi) Title to Property. The Company and its subsidiaries have good title to all real property or interests in real property owned by it or any of them in each case free and clear of all liens, encumbrances and defects except such as are stated in or included in documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference in the Time of Sale Information or the Prospectus or such as would not have a Material Adverse Effect; and at the time the Company and its subsidiaries first acquired title or such interest in such real property, the Company and its subsidiaries obtained satisfactory confirmations (consisting of policies of title insurance or commitments or binders therefor, opinions of counsel based upon the examination of abstracts, or other evidence deemed appropriate by the Company under the circumstances) confirming the foregoing. To the best knowledge of the Company, the instruments securing its real estate mortgage loans in favor of the Company and its subsidiaries create valid liens upon the real properties described in such instruments enjoying the priorities intended, subject only to exceptions to title which have no material adverse effect on the value of such interests in relation to the Company and its subsidiaries considered as one enterprise; and at the time the Company and its subsidiaries first acquired an interest in such real estate mortgage loans, the Company and its subsidiaries obtained satisfactory confirmations (consisting of policies of title insurance or commitments or binders therefor, opinions of counsel based upon the examination of abstracts, or other evidence deemed appropriate by the Company under the circumstances).

(xxii) Investment Company Act. The Company is not required to be registered, and, after giving effect to the offering contemplated hereby and the application of the proceeds thereof as described in the Pre-Pricing Prospectus and the Prospectus, will not be required to be registered, under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”).

(xxiii) Rating of the Securities. The Securities have the respective ratings set forth in the Issuer Free Writing Prospectus identified in Exhibit B hereto.

(xxiv) Pending Proceedings and Examinations. 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 Securities.

(xxv) Disclosure Controls and Procedures. The Company has established and maintains “disclosure controls and procedures” (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the 0000 Xxx) that (i) are designed to ensure that material information relating to the Company, including its consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and its Chief Financial Officer by others within those entities, particularly during the periods in which the filings made by the Company with the Commission which it may make under Section 13(a), 13(c) or 15(d) of the 1934 Act are being prepared, (ii) have been evaluated for effectiveness as of the end of the Company’s most recent fiscal year and (iii) are effective at a reasonable assurance level to perform the functions for which they were established.

Since the date of the most recent evaluation of such controls and procedures, there have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting or in other factors that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

(xxvii) Status Under the 1933 Act. The Company is not an “ineligible issuer” and is a “well-known seasoned issuer,” in each case as defined in the 1933 Act, in each case at the times specified in the 1933 Act in connection with the offering the Securities.

(xxviii) Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. None of the Company, any of its subsidiaries or, to the knowledge of the Company, any director, officer, agent or employee of the Company or any of its subsidiaries is aware of or has taken any action, directly or indirectly, that would result in (a) a violation by such persons of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder (the “FCPA”), including, without limitation, making use of the mails or any means or instrumentality of interstate commerce corruptly in furtherance of an offer, payment, promise to pay or authorization of the payment of any money, or other property, gift, promise to give, or authorization of the giving of anything of value to any “foreign official” (as such term is defined in the FCPA) or any foreign political party or official thereof or any candidate for foreign political office, in contravention of the FCPA or (b) an offense under the Bribery Act of 2010 of the United Kingdom (the “UK Bribery Act”), or any other applicable anti-bribery or anti-corruption laws. The Company and, to the knowledge of the Company, its affiliates have conducted their businesses in compliance in all material respects with the FCPA, the UK Bribery Act and other applicable anti-bribery or anti-corruption laws.

Section 3. Covenants of the Company.

The Company covenants with each Underwriter as follows:

(a) Compliance with Securities Regulations and Commission Requests. The Company will notify the Representatives immediately, and confirm the notice in writing (i) of the effectiveness of any post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement, (ii) of the mailing or the delivery to the Commission for filing of the Prospectus or any amendment to the Registration Statement or amendment or supplement to the Prospectus or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or any document to be filed pursuant to the 1934 Act during any period when the Prospectus is required to be delivered under the 1933 Act, the 1933 Act Regulations, the 1934 Act or the 1934 Act Regulations in connection with sales of the Securities (or required to be delivered but for Rule 172 of the 1933 Act Regulations) (the “Prospectus Delivery Period”), (iii) of the receipt of any comments or inquiries from the Commission relating to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, (iv) of any request by the Commission for any amendment to the Registration Statement or any amendment or supplement to the Prospectus or for additional information, (v) of the issuance by the Commission of any order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or of any order preventing or suspending the use of the Pre-Pricing Prospectus or the Prospectus, or the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose or pursuant to Xxxxxxx 0X xx xxx 0000 Xxx, (xx) of the occurrence of any event at any time as a result of which the Prospectus, the Time of Sale Information or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus as then amended or supplemented would include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances existing when the Prospectus, the Time of Sale Information or any such Issuer Free Writing Prospectus is delivered to a purchaser, not misleading; (vii) of the receipt by the Company of any notice of objection of the Commission to the use of the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto pursuant to Rule 401(g)(2) under the 1933 Act; and (viii) of the issuance by any state securities commission or other regulatory authority of any order suspending the qualification or the exemption from qualification of the Securities under state securities or Blue Sky laws or the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose. The Company will make every reasonable effort to prevent the issuance by the Commission of any such order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, preventing or suspending the use of the Pre-Pricing Prospectus or the Prospectus or suspending any such qualification or exemption of the Securities and, if any such order is issued, to obtain the lifting thereof at the earliest possible moment. The Company will provide you with copies of the form of Prospectus and each Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, in such numbers as you may reasonably request, and file or transmit for filing with the Commission such Prospectus and each Issuer Free Writing Prospectus (including the pricing term sheet in the form approved by the Representatives and in substantially the form of Exhibit C hereto (the “Term Sheet”)) to the extent required by Rule 433 of the 1933 Act Regulations in accordance with Rule 424(b) of the 1933 Act Regulations by the close of business in New York on the second business day immediately succeeding the date hereof. The Company will pay the registration fees for this offering within the time period required by Rule 456(b)(1)(i) of the 1933 Act Regulations (without giving effect to the proviso therein) and in any event prior to Closing Time.

(b) Filing of Amendments. During the Prospectus Delivery Period, the Company will give the Representatives notice of its intention to file or prepare any amendment to the Registration Statement or any amendment or supplement to the Prospectus (including any revised prospectus which the Company proposes for use by the Underwriters in connection with the offering of the Securities that differs from the prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the 1933 Act Regulations, whether or not such revised prospectus is required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the 1933 Act Regulations), will furnish the Representatives with copies of any such amendment or supplement a reasonable amount of time prior to such proposed filing or use, as the case may be, and will not file any such amendment or supplement or use any such prospectus to which the Representatives or counsel for the Underwriters shall reasonably object.

(c) Issuer Free Writing Prospectuses. Before making, preparing, using, authorizing, approving, referring to or filing any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus related to the Securities, whether before or after the time that the Registration Statement becomes effective, the Company will furnish to the Representatives and counsel for the Underwriters a copy of the proposed Issuer Free Writing Prospectus for review and will not make, prepare, use, authorize, approve, refer to or file any such Issuer Free Writing Prospectus to which the Representatives reasonably object.

(d) Delivery of Registration Statements. The Company will deliver to the Representatives as many signed copies of the Registration Statement as originally filed and of each amendment thereto (including exhibits filed therewith and documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference therein) as the Representatives may reasonably request and will also deliver to the Representatives as many conformed copies of the Registration Statement as originally filed and of each amendment thereto (including documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference therein but without exhibits filed therewith) as the Representatives may reasonably request.

(e) Delivery of Prospectuses. The Company will furnish to each Underwriter, from time to time during the Prospectus Delivery Period, such number of copies of the Prospectus (as amended or supplemented) as such Underwriter may reasonably request for the purposes contemplated by the 1933 Act or the 1934 Act or the respective applicable rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder.

(f) Continued Compliance with Securities Laws. If, at any time during the Prospectus Delivery Period, any event shall occur as a result of which it is necessary, in the opinion of counsel for the Underwriters or counsel for the Company, to amend or supplement the Prospectus in order to make the Prospectus not misleading in the light of the circumstances existing at the time it is delivered to a purchaser, the Company will forthwith amend or supplement the Prospectus (in form and substance satisfactory to counsel for the Underwriters) so that, as so amended or supplemented, the Prospectus will not contain 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 existing at the time it is delivered to a purchaser, not misleading, and the Company will furnish to you a reasonable number of copies of such amendment or supplement. If, in accordance with the preceding sentence, it shall be necessary to amend or supplement the Prospectus at any time subsequent to the expiration of nine months after the first date of the public offering of the Securities, the Underwriters shall bear the expense of preparing, filing and furnishing any such amendment or supplement. If at any time following issuance of an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus through Closing Time there occurred or occurs an event or development as a result of which such Issuer Free Writing Prospectus conflicted or would conflict with the information contained in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, any Pre-Pricing Prospectus or the Time of Sale Information or included or would include an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or would omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances prevailing at that subsequent time, not misleading, the Company will promptly notify you and will promptly amend or supplement, at its own expense, such Issuer Free Writing Prospectus to eliminate or correct such conflict, untrue statement or omission.

(g) Time of Sale Information. If at any time prior to Closing Time (A) any event shall occur or condition shall exist as a result of which the Time of Sale Information as then amended or supplemented would include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances, not misleading or (B) it is necessary to amend or supplement the Time of Sale Information to comply with law, the Company will immediately notify the Representatives thereof and forthwith prepare and, subject to paragraph (c) above, file with the Commission (to the extent required) and furnish to the Underwriters and to such dealers as the Representatives may designate, such amendments or supplements to the Time of Sale Information as may be necessary so that the statements in the Time of Sale Information as so amended or supplemented will not, in the light of the circumstances, be misleading or so that the Time of Sale Information will comply with law.

(h) Blue Sky Qualifications. The Company will endeavor, in cooperation with the Underwriters, to qualify the Securities for offering and sale under the applicable securities laws of such states and other jurisdictions of the United States as you may designate; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to file any general consent to service of process or to qualify as a foreign corporation in any jurisdiction in which it is not so qualified. In each jurisdiction in which the Securities shall have been so qualified, the Company will file such statements and reports as may be required by laws of such jurisdiction to continue such qualification in effect for as long as may be required for the distribution of the Securities.

(i) Earnings Statement. The Company will make generally available to its security holders as soon as practicable, but not later than 90 days after the close of the period covered thereby, an earnings statement (in form complying with the provisions of Rule 158 of the 1933 Act Regulations) covering the twelve month period beginning not later than the first day of the Company’s fiscal quarter next following the “effective date” (as defined in said Rule 158) of the Registration Statement.

(j) Use of Proceeds. The Company will use the net proceeds received by it from the sale of the Securities in the manner to be specified in the Prospectus Supplement under “Use of Proceeds.”

(k) Preparation of Prospectus Supplement. Immediately following the execution of this Agreement, the Company will prepare a prospectus supplement, dated the date hereof (the “Prospectus Supplement”), containing the terms of the Securities, the plan of distribution thereof and such other information as may be required by the 1933 Act or the 1933 Act Regulations or as the Representatives and the Company deem appropriate, and will file or transmit for filing with the Commission in accordance with Rule 424(b) of the 1933 Act Regulations copies of the Prospectus (including such Prospectus Supplement).

(l) Reporting Requirements. The Company, during the Prospectus Delivery Period, will file promptly all documents required to be filed with the Commission pursuant to Section 13, 14 or 15 of the 1934 Act within the time periods required by the 1934 Act and the 1934 Act Regulations.

The Company, during the period beginning on the date hereof and continuing to and including Closing Time (the “Lock-Up Period”), will not offer, sell, contract to sell or otherwise dispose of any debt securities of the Company or warrants to purchase debt securities of the Company substantially similar to the Securities (other than (i) the Securities or (ii) commercial paper issued in the ordinary course of business), without the prior written consent of the Representatives.

(n) Record Retention. The Company will, pursuant to reasonable procedures developed in good faith, retain copies of each Issuer Free Writing Prospectus that is not filed with the Commission in accordance with Rule 433 of the 1933 Act Regulations.

Section 4. Payment of Expenses. The Company will pay all expenses incident to the performance of its obligations under this Agreement, including (i) the printing and filing of the Registration Statement as originally filed and of each amendment thereto, and the Time of Sale Information, the Pre-Pricing Prospectus and the Prospectus and any amendments or supplements thereto and any “Canadian” wrappers, (ii) the fees and expenses of the Trustee, including the fees and disbursements of counsel for the Trustee in connection with the Indenture and the Securities, (iii) any fees payable in connection with the rating of the Securities, (iv) the preparation, issuance and delivery of the certificates for the Securities to you, (v) the fees and disbursements of the Company’s counsel and accountants, (vi) the qualification of the Securities under securities laws in accordance with the provisions of Section 3(h) hereof, including filing fees and the reasonable fee and disbursements of counsel for the Underwriters in connection therewith and in connection with the preparation of a Blue Sky Survey, (vii) the printing and delivery to the Underwriters in quantities as hereinabove stated of copies of the Registration Statement as originally filed and of each amendment thereto, the Pre-Pricing Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus and of the Prospectus and any amendments or supplements thereto, (viii) the printing and delivery to you of copies of the Blue Sky Survey, and (ix) any fees or expenses of a depositary in connection with holding the securities in book-entry form.

If this Agreement is cancelled or terminated by the Representatives in accordance with the provisions of Section 5 or Section 9(a)(i) hereof, the Company shall reimburse you for all of your out-of-pocket expenses, including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for the Underwriters.

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 Section 6 or Section 7 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 6(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.

(e) XXXXX. For purposes of this Section 6, all references to the Registration Statement, any Pre-Pricing Prospectus, Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement to any of the foregoing, shall be deemed to include, without limitation, any electronically transmitted copies thereof filed with the Commission pursuant to XXXXX.

Section 7. Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in Section 6 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 Underwriters, on the other hand, from the offering of the Securities 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 Underwriters, 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 Underwriters, on the other hand, in connection with the offering of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions that the total net proceeds from the offering of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement (before deducting expenses) received by the Company and the total underwriting discount received by the Underwriters, in each case as set forth on the cover of the Prospectus Supplement, bear to the aggregate public offering price of the Securities as set forth on such cover.

The relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, 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 the Underwriters and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

The Company and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 7 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 7. The aggregate amount of losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses incurred by an indemnified party and referred to above in this Section 7 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 7, no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Securities underwritten by it were offered exceeds the amount of any damages which such Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason of any such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission.

No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the 0000 Xxx) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

For purposes of this Section 7, each director, officer and agent of an Underwriter, and each person, if any, who controls an Underwriter 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 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 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 8. Representations, Warranties and Agreements to Survive Delivery. All representations, warranties and agreements contained in this Agreement, or contained in certificates of officers of the Company submitted pursuant hereto, shall remain operative and in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any Underwriter or any controlling person, or by or on behalf of the Company, and shall survive delivery of the Securities to the Underwriters.

Section 9. Termination.

(a) The Representatives may terminate this Agreement, by notice to the Company, at any time at or prior to Closing Time (i) if there has been since the date of this Agreement or since the respective dates as of which information is given in the Prospectus or the Time of Sale Information, any material adverse change in the condition, financial or otherwise, or in the earnings, business affairs or business prospects of the Company and its subsidiaries considered as one enterprise, whether or not arising in the ordinary course of business, (ii) if there has occurred any material adverse change in the financial markets in the United States, any outbreak of hostilities or other calamity or crisis or change or development involving a prospective change in national or international political, financial or economic conditions, in each case the effect of which on the financial markets of the United States is such as to make it, in the judgment of the Representatives, impracticable to market the Securities or enforce contracts for the sale of the Securities, (iii) if trading in any securities of the Company has been suspended by the Commission or a national securities exchange, or if trading generally on either the New York Stock Exchange or in the Nasdaq Global Market has been suspended, or minimum or maximum prices for trading have been fixed, or maximum ranges for prices for securities have been required, by the New York Stock Exchange or by the Nasdaq Global Market or by order of the Commission, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority or any other governmental authority, or a material disruption has occurred in commercial banking or securities settlement or clearance services in the United States, or (iv) if a banking moratorium has been declared by either federal, New York, Maryland or California authorities. As used in this Section 9(a), the term “Prospectus” means the Prospectus in the form first used to confirm sales of the Securities.

(b) If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to this Section, such termination shall be without liability of any party to any other party except as provided in Section 4 hereof. Notwithstanding any such termination, the provisions of Sections 4, 6, 7 and 8 shall remain in effect.

Section 10. Default by One or More of the Underwriters. If one or more of the Underwriters shall fail at Closing Time to purchase the Securities which it or they are obligated to purchase under this Agreement (the “Defaulted Securities”), the Representatives shall have the right, within 24 hours thereafter, to make arrangements for one or more of the non-defaulting Underwriters, or any other underwriters, to purchase all, but not less than all, of the Defaulted Securities in such amounts as may be agreed upon and upon the terms herein set forth; if, however, the Representatives shall not have completed such arrangements within such 24 hour period, then:

(a) if the aggregate principal amount of Defaulted Securities does not exceed 10% of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities to be purchased, each of the non-defaulting Underwriters shall be obligated, severally and not jointly, to purchase the full amount thereof in the proportions that their respective underwriting obligations hereunder bear to the underwriting obligations of all non-defaulting Underwriters, or

(b) if the aggregate principal amount of Defaulted Securities exceeds 10% of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities to be purchased on such date, this Agreement shall terminate without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Underwriter.

No action taken pursuant to this Section shall relieve any defaulting Underwriter from liability in respect of its default.

In the event of any such default which does not result in a termination of this Agreement, either the Representatives, on the one hand, or the Company, on the other hand, shall have the right to postpone Closing Time for a period not exceeding seven days in order to effect any required changes in the Registration Statement or Prospectus or in any other documents or arrangements. As used herein, the term “Underwriter” includes any person substituted for an Underwriter under this Section 10.

Section 11. Certain Agreements of the Underwriters. Each Underwriter hereby represents and agrees that:

(a) It has not and will not use, authorize use of, refer to, or participate in the plan for use of, any “free writing prospectus,” as defined in Rule 405 of the 1933 Act Regulations other than (i) a free writing prospectus that, solely as a result of use by the Underwriter, would not trigger an obligation to file such free writing prospectus with the Commission pursuant to Rule 433 of the 1933 Act Regulations, (ii) any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus listed on Exhibit B or prepared pursuant to Section 1(a)(iii) or Section 3(c) above (including any electronic road show), or (iii) any free writing prospectus prepared by such Underwriter and approved in writing by the Company in advance of the use of such free writing prospectus. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Underwriters may use a term sheet substantially in the form of Exhibit C hereto without the consent of the Company.

(b) It is not subject to any pending proceeding under Section 8A of the 1933 Act with respect to the offering (and will promptly notify the Company if any such proceeding against it is initiated during the Prospectus Delivery Period).

Nothing expressed or mentioned in this Agreement is intended or shall be construed to give any person, firm or corporation, other than the Underwriters and the Company and their respective successors and the controlling persons and the officers and directors referred to in Sections 6 and 7 hereof and their heirs and legal representatives any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this Agreement or any provision herein contained.

Section 15. 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 15: (A) 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); (B) “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); (C) “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; and (D) “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.

Section 16. No Advisory or Fiduciary Relationship. The Company acknowledges and agrees that (i) the purchase and sale of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement, including the determination of the public offering price of the Securities and any related discounts and commissions, are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other hand, (ii) in connection with the offering contemplated hereby and the process leading to such transaction each Underwriter is and has been acting solely as a principal and is not the agent or fiduciary of the Company or its stockholders, creditors, employees or any other party, (iii) no Underwriter has assumed or will 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 such Underwriter has advised or is currently advising the Company on other matters) and no Underwriter has any obligation to the Company with respect to the offering contemplated hereby except the obligations expressly set forth in this Agreement, (iv) the Underwriters and their respective affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Company, and (v) no Underwriter has provided any legal, financial, accounting, regulatory or tax advice with respect to the offering contemplated hereby and the Company has consulted its own legal, financial, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate. The Underwriters acknowledge and agree that the Underwriters are not an agent of the Company for any purpose under this Agreement including, for the avoidance of doubt, for any purpose related to the representations and warranties of the Company contained in Section 1 of this Agreement.

Section 17. Other Provisions. This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and understandings (whether written or oral) between the Company and the Underwriters, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof.

The Company and each of the Underwriters hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any and all right to trial by jury in any legal proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

Section 18. Counterparts and Electronic Signatures. This Agreement may be executed by any one or more of the parties hereto in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all such respective counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument.

The words “execution,” signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in this Agreement or in any instruments, agreements, certificates, legal opinions, negative assurance letters or other documents entered into or delivered pursuant to or in connection with this Agreement or the Indenture shall include images of manually executed signatures transmitted by facsimile or other electronic format (including, without limitation, “pdf”, “tif” or “jpg”) and other electronic signatures (including, without limitation, DocuSign and AdobeSign). The use of electronic signatures and electronic records (including, without limitation, any contract or other record created, generated, sent, communicated, received, or stored by electronic means) shall be of the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as a manually executed signature or use of a paper- based record-keeping system to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act and any other applicable law, including, without limitation, any state law based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act or the Uniform Commercial Code.

If the foregoing is in accordance with your understanding of our agreement, please sign and return to the Company a counterpart hereof, whereupon this instrument, along with all counterparts, will become a binding agreement between the Underwriters and the Company in accordance with its terms.
