The purpose of this facsimile agreement (this "Confirmation") is to confirm the terms and conditions of the transaction entered into between Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx & Co. International plc ("Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx"), represented by Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Bank ("Agent"), as its agent, and Molson Coors Brewing Company ("Counterparty") on the Trade Date specified below (the "Transaction").

Agent is acting as agent for Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx but does not guarantee the performance of Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx or Counterparty. Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx is not a member of the Securities Investor Protection Corporation. Agent, Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx and Counterparty each hereby acknowledges that any transactions by Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx or Agent in the Shares will be undertaken by Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx as principal for its own account, and all of the actions to be taken by Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx and Agent in connection with the Transaction shall be taken by Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx or Agent independently and without any advance or subsequent consultation with Counterparty.

In the event of any inconsistency between the Equity Definitions and the terms of this Confirmation, the terms of this Confirmation shall govern. For the purposes of the Equity Definitions, each reference herein to a Note Hedging Unit shall be deemed to be a reference to a Call or an Option, as context requires.

This Confirmation evidences a complete and binding agreement between Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx and Counterparty as to the terms of the Transaction to which this Confirmation relates. This Confirmation shall supplement, form a part of, and be subject to an agreement (the "Agreement") in the form of the ISDA 2002 Master Agreement (the "ISDA Form") as if Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx and Counterparty had executed an agreement in such form (without any Schedule but with the elections set forth in this Confirmation).

Settlement Amount:		The product of the Applicable Percentage and a number of Shares and/or amount of cash in USD equal to the aggregate number of Shares and/or amount of cash, as the case may be, that Counterparty is obligated to deliver to the holder(s) of the Convertible Notes converted on such Conversion Date pursuant to Section 4.05(c) of the Supplemental Indenture (the "Convertible Obligation"); provided that such obligation shall be determined excluding any Shares or cash that Counterparty is obligated to deliver to holder(s) of the Convertible Notes as a result of any adjustments to the Conversion Rate for the issuance of additional shares or cash as set forth in Section 4.13 of the Supplemental Indenture or any voluntary adjustment pursuant to Sections 4.08 or 4.09 of the Supplemental Indenture; provided further that, if Counterparty is permitted or required to exercise discretion under the terms of the Indenture with respect to any determination, calculation or adjustment relevant to conversion of the Convertible Notes including, but not limited to, the volume-weighted average price of the Shares, Counterparty shall consult with Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx with respect thereto prior to making such determination, calculation or adjustment.

Share Adjustments:
Potential Adjustment Events:		Notwithstanding Section 11.2(e) of the Equity Definitions, a "Potential Adjustment Event" means any occurrence of any event or condition, as set forth in Section 4.06 of the Supplemental Indenture that would result in an adjustment to the Conversion Rate of the Convertible Notes; provided that in no event shall there be any adjustment hereunder as a result of an adjustment to the Conversion Rate pursuant to Sections 4.08, 4.09 or Section 4.13 of the Supplemental Indenture.

Method of Adjustment:		Calculation Agent Adjustment, which means that, notwithstanding Section 11.2(c) of the Equity Definitions, upon any adjustment to the Conversion Rate of the Convertible Notes pursuant to the Indenture (other than Sections 4.08, 4.09 or 4.13 of the Supplemental Indenture), the Calculation Agent shall make a corresponding adjustment to any one or more of the Strike Price, Number of Note Hedging Units, the Note Hedging Unit Entitlement and any other variable relevant to the exercise, settlement, payment or other terms of the Transaction, so as to match the relevant adjustment(s) made pursuant to the Indenture.
Extraordinary Events:
Merger Events:		Notwithstanding Section 12.1(b) of the Equity Definitions, a "Merger Event" means the occurrence of any event or condition set forth in Section 4.11 of the Supplemental Indenture.
Notice of Merger Consideration:		Upon the occurrence of a Merger Event that causes the Shares to be converted into or exchanged for more than a single type of consideration (determined based in part upon the form of election of the holders of Shares), Counterparty shall promptly (but in any event prior to the effective date of the Merger Event) notify the Calculation Agent of the weighted average of the kind and amounts of consideration received by the holders of Shares in any Merger Event who affirmatively make such an election.
Consequences of Merger Events:		Notwithstanding Section 12.2 of the Equity Definitions, upon the occurrence of a Merger Event, the Calculation Agent shall make the corresponding adjustment in respect of any adjustment under the Indenture to any one or more of the nature of the Shares, the Strike Price, the Number of Note Hedging Units, the Note Hedging Unit Entitlement and any other variable relevant to the exercise, settlement, payment or other terms of the Transaction, to the extent an analogous adjustment is made under the Indenture; provided that such adjustment shall be made without regard to any adjustment to the Conversion Rate for the issuance of additional shares or cash as set forth in Section 4.13 of the Supplemental Indenture or any voluntary adjustment pursuant to Sections 4.08 or 4.09 of the Supplemental Indenture; and provided further that the Calculation Agent may limit or alter any such adjustment referenced in this paragraph so that the fair value of the Transaction to the parties is not reduced as a result of such adjustment.

Nationalization, Insolvency and Delisting:		Cancellation and Payment (Calculation Agent Determination); provided that in addition to the provisions of Section 12.6(a)(iii) of the Equity Definitions, it shall also constitute a Delisting if the Exchange is located in the United States and the Shares are not immediately re-listed, re-traded or re-quoted on any of the New York Stock Exchange, the American Stock Exchange, the NASDAQ Global Select Market or the NASDAQ Global Market (or their respective successors); if the Shares are immediately re-listed, re-traded or re-quoted on any such exchange or quotation system, such exchange or quotation system shall be deemed to be the Exchange. For the avoidance of doubt, the occurrence of any event that is a Merger Event and would otherwise have been a Delisting will have the consequence specified for the relevant Merger Event.
Additional Disruption Events:

Notes to amend, in each case without the prior consent of Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld.

Disposition of Hedge Shares. Counterparty hereby agrees that if, in the good faith reasonable judgment of Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx, the Shares (the "Hedge Shares") acquired by Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx for the purpose of hedging its obligations pursuant to the Transaction cannot be sold in the public market by Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx without registration under the Securities Act, Counterparty shall, at its election: (i) in order to allow Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx to sell the Hedge Shares in a registered offering, make available to Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx an effective registration statement under the Securities Act to cover the resale of such Hedge Shares and (A) enter into an agreement, in form and substance satisfactory to Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx, substantially in the form of an underwriting agreement for a registered offering, (B) provide accountant's "comfort" letters in customary form for registered offerings of equity securities, (C) provide disclosure opinions of nationally recognized outside counsel to Counterparty reasonably acceptable to Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx, (D) provide other customary opinions, certificates and closing documents customary in form for registered offerings of equity securities and (E) afford Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx a reasonable opportunity to conduct a "due diligence" investigation with respect to Counterparty customary in scope for underwritten offerings of equity securities; provided, however, that if Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx, in its sole reasonable discretion, is not satisfied with access to due diligence materials, the results of its due diligence investigation, or the procedures and documentation for the registered offering referred to above, then clause (ii) or clause (iii) of this paragraph shall apply at the election of Counterparty; (ii) in order to allow Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx to sell the Hedge Shares in a private placement, enter into a private placement agreement substantially similar to private placement purchase agreements customary for private placements of equity securities, in form and substance satisfactory to Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx, including customary representations, covenants, blue sky and other governmental filings and/or registrations, indemnities to Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx, due diligence rights (for Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx or any designated buyer of the Hedge Shares from Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx), opinions and certificates and such other documentation as is customary for private placements agreements, all reasonably acceptable to Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx (in which case, the Calculation Agent shall make any adjustments to the terms of the Transaction that are necessary, in its reasonable judgment, to compensate Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx for any discount from the public market price of the Shares incurred on the sale of Hedge Shares in a private placement); or (iii) purchase the Hedge Shares from Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx at the VWAP Price on such Exchange Business Days, and in the amounts, requested by Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx. "VWAP Price" means, on any Exchange Business Day, the per Share volume-weighted average price as displayed under the heading "Bloomberg VWAP" on Bloomberg page TAP.N <equity> AQR (or any successor thereto) in respect of the period from 9:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. (New York City time) on such Exchange Business Day (or if such volume-weighted average price is unavailable, the market value of one Share on such Exchange Business Day, as determined by the Calculation

Agent using a volume-weighted method). This paragraph shall survive the termination, expiration or early unwind of the Transaction.

Status of Claims in Bankruptcy. Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx acknowledges and agrees that this Confirmation is not intended to convey to Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx rights with respect to the Transaction that are senior to the claims of common stockholders in any U.S. bankruptcy proceedings of Counterparty; provided that nothing herein shall limit or shall be deemed to limit Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx'x right to pursue remedies in the event of a breach by Counterparty of its obligations and agreements with respect to the Transaction either outside of bankruptcy proceedings or (subject only to the limitation on seniority in the preceding clause) within a bankruptcy proceeding; provided, further, that nothing herein shall limit or shall be deemed to limit Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx'x rights in respect of any transactions other than the Transaction.

No Collateral. Notwithstanding any provision of this Confirmation, the Agreement, Equity Definitions, or any other agreement between the parties to the contrary, the obligations of Counterparty under the Transaction are not secured by any collateral.

Securities Contract; Swap Agreement. The parties hereto agree and acknowledge that Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx is a "financial institution," "swap participant" and/or "financial participant" within the meaning of Sections 101(22), 101(53C) and 101(22A) of Title 11 of the United States Code (the "Bankruptcy Code"). The parties hereto further agree and acknowledge (A) that this Confirmation is (i) a "securities contract," as such term is defined in Section 741(7) of the Bankruptcy Code, with respect to which each payment and delivery hereunder or in connection herewith is a "termination value," "payment amount" or "other transfer obligation" within the meaning of Section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code and a "settlement payment" within the meaning of Section 546 of the Bankruptcy Code, and (ii) a "swap agreement," as such term is defined in Section 101(53B) of the Bankruptcy Code, with respect to which each payment and delivery hereunder or in connection herewith is a "termination value," a "payment amount" or "other transfer obligation" within the meaning of Section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code and a "transfer" within the meaning of Section 546 of the Bankruptcy Code, and (B) that Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx is entitled to the protections afforded by, among other sections, Section 362(b)(6), 362(b)(17), 362(b)(27), 362(o), 546(e), 546(g), 546(j), 548(d)(2), 555, 560 and 561 of the Bankruptcy Code.

Repurchase Notices. Counterparty shall, on any day on which Counterparty effects any repurchase of Shares, promptly give Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx a written notice of such repurchase (a "Repurchase Notice") on such day if following such repurchase, the Unit Equity Percentage as determined on such day is (a) equal to or greater than 6.0% and (b) greater by 0.5% than the Unit Equity Percentage included in the immediately preceding Repurchase Notice (or, in the case of the first such Repurchase Notice, greater than the Unit Equity Percentage as of the date hereof). The "Unit Equity Percentage" as of any day is the fraction (i) the numerator of which is the product of the Applicable Percentage, the number of Note Hedging Units and the Note Hedging Unit Entitlement, and (ii) the denominator of which is the number of Shares outstanding on such day. Counterparty agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx and its affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees, advisors, agents and controlling persons (each, a "Section 16 Indemnified Person") from and against any and all losses (including losses relating to Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx'x hedging activities as a consequence of becoming, or of the risk of becoming, a Section 16 "insider", including without limitation, any forbearance from hedging activities or cessation of hedging activities and any losses in connection therewith with respect to the Transaction), claims, damages, judgments, liabilities and expenses (including reasonable attorney's fees), joint or several, to which a Section 16 Indemnified Person may become subject, as a result of Counterparty's failure to provide Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx with a Repurchase Notice on the day and in the manner specified in this paragraph, and to reimburse, upon written request, each of such Section 16 Indemnified Persons for any reasonable legal or other expenses incurred in connection

with investigating, preparing for, providing testimony or other evidence in connection with or defending any of the foregoing. If any suit, action, proceeding (including any governmental or regulatory investigation), claim or demand shall be brought or asserted against the Section 16 Indemnified Person, such Section 16 Indemnified Person shall promptly notify Counterparty in writing, and Counterparty, upon request of the Section 16 Indemnified Person, shall retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Section 16 Indemnified Person to represent the Section 16 Indemnified Person and any others Counterparty may designate in such proceeding and shall pay the fees and expenses of such counsel related to such proceeding. Counterparty shall be relieved from liability to the extent that the Section 16 Indemnified Person fails promptly to notify Counterparty of any action commenced against it in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder; provided, that failure to notify Counterparty (x) shall not relieve Counterparty from any liability hereunder to the extent it is not materially prejudiced as a result thereof and (y) shall not, in any event, relieve Counterparty from any liability that it may have otherwise than on account of this indemnity agreement. Counterparty shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, Counterparty agrees to indemnify any Section 16 Indemnified Person from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. Counterparty shall not, without the prior written consent of the Section 16 Indemnified Person, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any Section 16 Indemnified Person is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Section 16 Indemnified Person, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Section 16 Indemnified Person from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding on terms reasonably satisfactory to such Section 16 Indemnified Person. If the indemnification provided for in this paragraph is unavailable to a Section 16 Indemnified Person or insufficient in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein, then Counterparty, in lieu of indemnifying such Section 16 Indemnified Person thereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Section 16 Indemnified Person as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities. The remedies provided for in this paragraph are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies that may otherwise be available to any Section 16 Indemnified Person at law or in equity. The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this paragraph shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of the termination of the Transaction.

Alternative Calculations and Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Payment on Early Termination and on Certain Extraordinary Events. If Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx owes Counterparty any amount in connection with the Transaction pursuant to Sections 12.2, 12.3 (and "Consequences of Merger Events" above), 12.6, 12.7 or 12.9 of the Equity Definitions (except in the case of an Extraordinary Event in which the consideration or proceeds to be paid to holders of Shares as a result of such event consists solely of cash) or pursuant to Section 6(d)(ii) of the Agreement (except in the case of an Event of Default in which Counterparty is the Defaulting Party or a Termination Event in which Counterparty is the Affected Party, other than (x) an Event of Default of the type described in Section 5(a)(iii), (v), (vi) or (vii) of the Agreement or (y) a Termination Event of the type described in Section 5(b)(i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v) or (vi) of the Agreement that in the case of either (x) or (y) resulted from an event or events outside Counterparty's control) (a "Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Payment Obligation"), Counterparty shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to require Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx to satisfy any such Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Payment Obligation by delivery of Termination Delivery Units (as defined below) by giving irrevocable telephonic notice to Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx, confirmed in writing within one Scheduled Trading Day, between the hours of 9:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. New York time on the Early Termination Date or other date the transaction is terminated, as applicable ("Notice of Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Termination Delivery"). Within a commercially reasonable period of time following receipt of a Notice of Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Termination Delivery, Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx shall deliver to Counterparty a number of Termination Delivery Units having a cash value equal to the

amount of such Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Payment Obligation (such number of Termination Delivery Units to be delivered to be determined by the Calculation Agent as the number of whole Termination Delivery Units that could be purchased over a commercially reasonable period of time with the cash equivalent of such payment obligation). If the provisions set forth in this paragraph are applicable, the provisions of Sections 9.8, 9.9, 9.10, 9.11 (modified as described above) and 9.12 of the Equity Definitions shall be applicable, except that all references to "Shares" shall be read as references to "Termination Delivery Units." It is understood and agreed that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Equity Definitions or the Agreement, Counterparty shall have no obligation hereunder or under the Agreement to make any delivery or payment to Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx in connection with any Early Termination Date.

"Termination Delivery Unit" means (a) in the case of a Termination Event, an Event of Default or an Extraordinary Event (other than an Insolvency, Nationalization or Merger Event), one Share or (b) in the case of an Insolvency, Nationalization or Merger Event, a unit consisting of the number or amount of each type of property received by a holder of one Share (without consideration of any requirement to pay cash or other consideration in lieu of fractional amounts of any securities) in such Insolvency, Nationalization or Merger Event. If a Termination Delivery Unit consists of property other than cash or New Shares and Counterparty provides irrevocable written notice to the Calculation Agent on or prior to the Closing Date that it elects to receive cash, New Shares or a combination thereof (in such proportion as Counterparty designates) in lieu of such other property, the Calculation Agent shall replace such property with cash, New Shares or a combination thereof as components of a Termination Delivery Unit in such amounts, as determined by the Calculation Agent in its discretion by commercially reasonable means, as shall have a value equal to the value of the property so replaced. If such Insolvency, Nationalization or Merger Event involves a choice of consideration to be received by holders, such holder shall be deemed to have elected to receive the maximum possible amount of cash.

Rule 10b-18. Except as disclosed to Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx in writing prior to the date on which the offering of the Convertible Notes was first announced, Counterparty represents and warrants to Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx that it has not made any purchases of blocks by or for itself or any of its Affiliated Purchasers pursuant to the one block purchase per week exception in Rule 10b-18(b)(4) under the Exchange Act during each of the four calendar weeks preceding such date ("Rule 00x-00 xxxxxxxx," "xxxxxx" and "Affiliated Purchaser" each as defined in Rule 10b-18 under the Exchange Act). Counterparty agrees and acknowledges that it shall not, and shall cause its affiliates and Affiliated Purchasers not to, directly or indirectly (including by means of a derivative instrument) enter into any transaction to purchase any Shares (i) during the period beginning on such date and ending on the Effective Date (inclusive) and (ii) during the period agreed by the parties in connection with any increase in the Number of Note Hedge Units that may be agreed pursuant to "Amendment" above.

Regulation M. Counterparty was not on the date on which the offering of the Convertible Notes was first announced, has not since such date, and is not on the date hereof, engaged in a distribution, as such term is used in Regulation M under the Exchange Act, of any securities of Counterparty, other than a distribution meeting the requirements of the exception set forth in Sections 101(b)(10) and 102(b)(7) of Regulation M under the Exchange Act. Counterparty shall not (i) until the Effective Date (inclusive) and (ii) during the period agreed by the parties in connection with any increase in the Number of Note Hedge Units that may be agreed pursuant to "Amendment" above, engage in any such distribution.

No Material Non-Public Information. On each day during the period beginning on the date on which the offering of the Convertible Notes was first announced and ending on the Effective Date (inclusive), as well as on (x) the date of any increase in the Number of Note Hedge Units that may be agreed pursuant to "Amendment" above and (y) the date on which Counterparty designates an

Early Termination Date pursuant to "Additional Termination Events" above, Counterparty represents and warrants to Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx that it is not aware of any material nonpublic information concerning itself or the Shares.

Right to Extend. Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx may postpone any potential Exercise Date or postpone or extend any other date of valuation or delivery with respect to some or all of the relevant Note Hedging Units (in which event the Calculation Agent shall make appropriate adjustments to the Settlement Amount for such Note Hedging Units), if Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx determines, in its reasonable discretion based on advice of counsel, that such extension is reasonably necessary or appropriate to (i) preserve Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx'x hedging or hedge unwind activity hereunder in light of existing liquidity conditions or (ii) enable Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx to effect purchases of Shares in connection with its hedging, hedge unwind or settlement activity hereunder in a manner that would, if Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx were Issuer or an affiliated purchaser of Issuer, be in compliance with applicable legal, regulatory or self-regulatory requirements, or with related policies and procedures applicable to Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx.

Transfer or Assignment. Counterparty may not transfer any of its rights or obligations under the Transaction without the prior written consent of Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx. Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx may transfer or assign (i) all or a portion of its Note Hedging Units hereunder at any time to any affiliate of Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx or (ii) the Terminated Portion under the conditions and pursuant to the provisions set forth in the immediately following paragraph to any third party, in each case with a rating (or whose guarantor has a rating) for its long term, unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness of A+ or better by Standard & Poor's Ratings Services or its successor ("S&P"), or A1 or better by Xxxxx'x Investors Service, Inc. ("Moody's") or, if either S&P or Moody's ceases to rate such debt, at least an equivalent rating or better by a substitute agency rating mutually agreed by Counterparty and Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx, without the consent of Counterparty.

If, as determined in Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx'x sole discretion, (x) its "beneficial ownership" (within the meaning of Section 16 of the Exchange Act and rules promulgated thereunder) exceeds 8.5% of Counterparty's outstanding Shares and (y) Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx is unable, after commercially reasonable efforts, to effect a transfer or assignment on pricing terms and within a time period reasonably acceptable to it of all or a portion of the Transaction pursuant to the preceding paragraph to reduce such "beneficial ownership" below 8.5%, Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx may designate any Scheduled Trading Day as an Early Termination Date with respect to a portion (the "Terminated Portion") of this Transaction, such that its "beneficial ownership" following such partial termination will be approximately equal to but less than 8.5%. In the event that Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx so designates an Early Termination Date with respect to a portion of this Transaction, a payment shall be made pursuant to Section 6 of the Agreement as if (i) an Early Termination Date had been designated in respect of a Transaction having terms identical to this Transaction and a Number of Note Hedging Units equal to the Terminated Portion, (ii) Counterparty shall be the sole Affected Party with respect to such partial termination and (iii) such Transaction shall be the only Terminated Transaction (and, for the avoidance of doubt, the provisions set forth under the caption "Alternative Calculations and Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Payment on Early Termination and on Certain Extraordinary Events" shall apply to any amount that is payable by Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx to Counterparty pursuant to this sentence).

Notwithstanding any other provision in this Confirmation to the contrary requiring or allowing Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx to purchase, sell, receive or deliver any shares or other securities to or from Counterparty, Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx may designate any of its affiliates to purchase, sell, receive or deliver such shares or other securities and otherwise to perform Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx'x obligations in respect of the Transaction and any such designee may assume such obligations. Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx shall be discharged of its obligations to Counterparty to the extent of any such performance.

Severability; Illegality. If compliance by either party with any provision of the Transaction would be unenforceable or illegal, (a) the parties shall negotiate in good faith to resolve such unenforceability or illegality in a manner that preserves the economic benefits of the transactions contemplated hereby and (b) the other provisions of the Transaction shall not be invalidated, but shall remain in full force and effect.

Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THE TRANSACTION. EACH PARTY (I) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF THE OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF SUCH A SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (II) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTY HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THE TRANSACTION, AS APPLICABLE, BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS PROVIDED HEREIN.

Early Unwind. In the event the sale of Convertible Notes is not consummated with the underwriters thereof for any reason by the close of business in New York on June 15, 2007 (or such later date as agreed upon by the parties) (June 15, 2007 or such later date as agreed upon being the "Early Unwind Date"), the Transaction shall automatically terminate (the "Early Unwind") on the Early Unwind Date and (a) the Transaction and all of the respective rights and obligations of Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx and Counterparty under the Transaction shall be cancelled and terminated and (b) each party shall be released and discharged by the other party from and agrees not to make any claim against the other party with respect to any obligations or liabilities of the other party arising out of and to be performed in connection with the Transaction either prior to or after the Early Unwind Date; provided that, other than in cases involving a breach of the Underwriting Agreement by Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx or an affiliate thereof, Counterparty shall purchase from Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx on the Early Unwind Date all Shares purchased by Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx or one or more of its affiliates, and assume, or reimburse the cost of, derivatives entered into by Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx or one or more of its affiliates, in each case, in connection with hedging of the Transaction on or after the date hereof and the unwind of such hedging activities. The amount payable by Counterparty shall be Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx'x (or its affiliates) actual cost of such Shares and unwind cost of such derivatives as Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx informs Counterparty and shall be paid in immediately available funds on the Early Unwind Date. Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx and Counterparty represent and acknowledge to the other that, subject to the proviso included in the preceding sentence, upon an Early Unwind, all obligations with respect to the Transaction shall be deemed fully and finally discharged.
