Under the terms of the Agreement, the Borrower will return the aforementioned shares to the Sponsor no later than six months following the execution of the Agreement. The Sponsor will retain the right to vote the Shares and receive any dividends paid on the Shares during the duration of the loan. The Borrower may not sell, lend or transfer the Shares. The Borrower has agreed not to buy, sell or short any securities of the Issuer for a period of one year from the date of the Agreement. |
| 2. Under the terms of the Agreement, the Sponsor may request the return of the Shares at any time upon five days' notice during the term of the Agreement.

| 3. The Sponsor has agreed that all consideration for its loan of the Shares to the Borrower shall be paid directly to the Issuer.
