Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Agreement, JPMorgan may assign any of its rights or duties hereunder to any one or more of its Affiliates without the prior written consent of Counterparty provided that the senior unsecured debt rating (“Credit Rating”) of such affiliate (or guarantor of its obligations under the transferred Transaction) is equal to or greater than the Credit Rating of JPMorgan, as specified by at least one of Standard & Poor’s and Moody’s, at the date of this Master Confirmation or the time of such assignment or transfer (whichever is higher). In the event of any transfer or assignment of any rights, title and interest, powers, privileges and remedies of Dealer under any Transaction, the transferee or assignee shall assume and enter into all of the transferor’s covenants and representations under Sections 3(e), 3(f), 4(a)(i) and 4(a)(iii) of the Agreement or enter into new covenants and representations that are agreed by the other party under the Agreement, and the identity of the transferee or assignee shall be entered on the books and records maintained by each party or its respective agents. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Master Confirmation to the contrary requiring or allowing JPMorgan to purchase, sell, receive or deliver any Shares or other securities to or from Counterparty, JPMorgan may designate any of its Affiliates to purchase, sell, receive or deliver such Shares or other securities and otherwise to perform JPMorgan’s obligations in respect of any Transaction and any such designee may assume such obligations. JPMorgan may assign the right to receive Settlement Shares to any third party who may legally receive Settlement Shares. JPMorgan shall be discharged of its obligations to Counterparty only to the extent of any such performance. For the avoidance of doubt, JPMorgan hereby acknowledges that notwithstanding any such designation hereunder, to the extent any of JPMorgan’s obligations in respect of any Transaction are not completed by its designee, JPMorgan shall be obligated to continue to perform or to cause any other of its designees to perform in respect of such obligations.
