Item 9. Undertakings

(a) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:

(i)to file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

A.To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a) (3) of the Securities Act;

B.To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement.

C.           To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement; provided, however, that paragraphs (A) and (B) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement.

4

(ii)that, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(iii)to remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

(b)The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13 (a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

PAGE 1

Article 1. Form - Corporate name

The Company’s legal name is ArcelorMittal and it is a public limited company (“société anonyme”).

Article 2. Duration

The Company is established for an unlimited period. It may be dissolved at any time by decision of the general meeting of shareholders taken in the same manner as for a change in the articles of association in accordance with article 19 below.

Article 3. Corporate purpose

The corporate purpose of the Company shall be the manufacture, processing and marketing of steel, steel products and all other metallurgical products, as well as all products and materials used in their manufacture, their processing and their marketing, and all industrial and commercial activities connected directly or indirectly with those objects, including mining and research activities and the creation, acquisition, holding, exploitation and sale of patents, licences, know-how and, more generally, intellectual and industrial property rights.

The Company may realise that corporate purpose either directly or through the creation of companies, the acquisition, holding or acquisition of interests in any companies or partnerships, membership in any associations, consortia and joint ventures.

In general, the Company's corporate purpose comprises the participation, in any form whatsoever, in companies and partnerships, and the acquisition by purchase, subscription or in any other manner as well as the transfer by sale, exchange or in any other manner of shares, bonds, debt securities, warrants and other securities and instruments of any kind.

It may grant assistance to any affiliated company and take any measure for the control and supervision of such companies.

It may carry out any commercial, financial or industrial operation or transaction which it considers to be directly or indirectly necessary or useful in order to achieve or further its corporate purpose.

Article 4. Registered office

The Company's registered office and principal office shall be established in Luxembourg City. The registered office may be transferred within the municipality of Luxembourg City by simple decision of the board of directors. Branches or offices both in the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg and abroad may be set up by simple decision of the board of directors.

In the event that the board of directors determines that extraordinary political, economic or societal events have occurred or are imminent that may hinder the ordinary course activities of the Company at the registered office

or the ease of communication either with that office or from that office to places abroad, it may temporarily transfer the registered office to a location abroad until the complete cessation of the abnormal circumstances; provided, however, that such temporary transfer shall have no effect on the nationality of the Company, which, despite the temporary transfer of its registered office, shall remain a Luxembourg company.

Article 5. Capital - Increase in capital

5.1. The issued share capital amounts to six billion eight hundred and thirty-six million eight hundred five thousand nine hundred and ninety-one Euro and eighty cents (EUR 6,836,805,991.80). It is represented by one billion five hundred sixty million nine hundred

PAGE 2

fourteen thousand six hundred and ten (1,560,914,610) shares without nominal value and fully paid up.

5.2. The Company's authorised capital, including the issued capital, shall amount to seven billion eighty two million four hundred and sixty thousand Euro (EUR 7,082,460,000), represented by one billion six hundred and seventeen million (1,617,000,000) shares, without nominal value.

5.3. The issued capital and the authorised capital of the Company may be increased or decreased by resolution of the general meeting of shareholders adopted in the forms and in accordance with the conditions laid down for amending the articles of association under article 19 of the present articles of association.

5.4. Subject to the provisions of the law on commercial companies (hereinafter referred to as "the Law"), each shareholder shall have a preferential right of subscription in the event of the issue of new shares in return for contributions in cash. Such preferential right of subscription shall be proportional to the fraction of the capital represented by the shares held by each shareholder.

The preferential subscription right may be limited or cancelled by a resolution of the general meeting of shareholders adopted in accordance with article 19 of the present articles of association.

The preferential subscription right may also be limited or cancelled by the board of directors (i) in the event that the general meeting of shareholders delegates, under the conditions laid down in article 19 of the present articles of association and by amending the present articles of association, to the board of directors the power to issue shares and to limit or cancel the preferential subscription right for a period of no more than five years set by the general meeting, as well as (ii) pursuant to the authorization conferred by article 5.5 of the present articles of association.

5.5. The board of directors is authorised, during a period from the date of this general meeting of shareholders and ending on the fifth anniversary of the date of publication in the Luxembourg legal gazette of the minutes of the general meeting held on 17^th June 2009, without prejudice to any renewals, to increase the issued capital on one or more occasions within the limits of the authorised capital.

The board of directors is authorised to determine the conditions of any capital increase including through contributions in cash or in kind, by the incorporation of reserves, issue premiums or retained earnings, with or without the issue of new shares, or following the issue and the exercise of subordinated or non-subordinated bonds, convertible into or repayable by or exchangeable for shares (whether provided in the terms at issue or subsequently provided), or following the issue of bonds with warrants or other rights to subscribe for shares attached, or through the issue of stand-alone warrants or any other instrument carrying an entitlement to, or the right to subscribe for, shares.

The board of directors is authorised to set the subscription price, with or without issue premium, the date from which the shares or other financial instruments will carry beneficial rights and, if applicable, the duration, amortisation, other rights (including early repayment), interest rates, conversion rates and exchange rates of the aforesaid financial instruments as well as all the other conditions and terms of such financial

PAGE 3

instruments including as to their subscription, issue and payment, for which the board of directors may make use of Article 32-1 paragraph 3 of the Law.

The board of directors is authorised to limit or cancel the preferential subscription rights of existing shareholders.

Decisions of the board of directors relating to the issue, pursuant to the authorisation conferred by this article 5.5, of any financial instruments carrying or potentially carrying a right to equity shall, by way of derogation from article 9 of the present articles of association, be taken by a majority of two-thirds of the members present or represented.

When the board of directors has implemented a complete or partial increase in capital as authorised by the foregoing provisions, article 5 of the present articles of association shall be amended to reflect that increase.

The board of directors is expressly authorised to delegate to any natural or legal person to organise the market in subscription rights, accept subscriptions, conversions or exchanges, receive payment for the price of shares, bonds, subscription rights or other financial instruments, to have registered increases of capital carried out as well as the corresponding amendments to article 5 of the present articles of association and to have recorded in said article 5 of the present articles of association the amount by which the authorisation to increase the capital has actually been used and, where appropriate, the amounts of any such increase that are reserved for financial instruments which may carry an entitlement to shares.

5.6. The non-subscribed portion of the authorised capital may be drawn on by the exercise of conversion or subscription rights already conferred by the Company.

Article 6. Shares

6.1. Shares shall be issued solely in the form of registered shares.

6.2. Subject to the provision of article 6.3 of the present articles of association, the Company shall consider the person in whose name the shares or fractions are recorded in the register of shareholders to be the owner of those shares or of those fractions.

6.3. However, where shares are recorded in the register of shareholders on behalf of one or more persons in the name of a securities settlement system or the operator of such a system or in the name of a professional depository of securities or any other depository (such systems, professionals or other depositories being referred to hereinafter as "Depositories") or of a sub-depository designated by one or more Depositories, the Company - subject to its having received from the Depository with whom those shares are kept in account a certificate in proper form - will permit those persons to exercise the rights attaching to those shares, including admission to and voting at general meetings, and shall consider those persons to be holders for the purposes of article 7 of the present articles of association. The board of directors may determine the formal requirements with which such certificates must comply.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company will make payments, by way of dividends or otherwise, in cash, shares or other assets only into the hands of the Depository or sub-depository recorded in the register or in accordance with their instructions, and that payment shall release the Company from any and all obligations for such payment.

PAGE 4

6.4. Certificates confirming that an entry has been made in the register of shareholders will be provided to the shareholders and, in the case provided for in article 6.3 of the present articles of association upon request, to the Depositories or sub-depositories recorded in the register. Other than with respect to the procedures for transfer of fungible shares in the case provided for in article 6.3 of the present articles of association, the transfer of shares shall be made by a written declaration of transfer inscribed in the register of shareholders and dated and signed by the transferor and the transferee, or by their duly-appointed agents. The Company may accept any other document, instrument, writing or correspondence as sufficient proof of the transfer.

No entry shall be made in the register of shareholders and no notice of a transfer shall be recognised by the Company during the period starting on the fifth (5^th) working day before the date of a general meeting and ending at the close of that general meeting, unless the Company establishes a shorter period.

6.5. Within the limits and conditions laid down by the Law, the Company may repurchase its own shares or cause them to be repurchased by its subsidiaries.

6.6. Subject to the provisions of article 6.7 of the present articles of association, the shares or fractions are indivisible vis-à-vis the Company, which shall recognise only one legal owner per share or fraction. Owners per indivisum must be represented vis-à-vis the Company by one single person in order to be able to exercise their rights.

6.7. The shares of the Company may be divided into equal fractions, where each fraction is equal to one seventh (1/7) of a share. The division of shares into fractions shall be effected only in the event of a corporate capital restructuring decided by the general meeting of shareholders of the Company.

A holder of a fraction is entitled to one-seventh (1/7) of any distribution per share by the Company, or upon its liquidation.

Fractions carry no voting rights at the general meetings of shareholders of the Company, unless a number of fractions equals a full share.

Any holder of fractions who holds seven (7) fractions can request their conversion into one (1) full share.

Article 7. Rights and obligations of shareholders

7.1. The Company is currently subject, and for so long as its transferable securities are admitted to trading on a regulated market will remain subject, to the provisions of the law of 4 December 1992 (the “Law of 4 December 1992”). Any reference in these articles of association to a provision of the Law of 4 December 1992 shall be a reference to the equivalent provision in such law as the same may be amended or replaced. The provisions of articles 1 to 10 inclusive of the Law of 4 December 1992 and the sanction of suspension of voting rights in accordance with article 13 of the Law of 4 December 1992 shall also apply, taking into account the provisions of articles 7 and 8 of the Law of 4 December 1992, (a) to any acquisition or disposal of shares resulting in a shareholding increasing above or decreasing below a threshold of two and one-half per cent (2.5%) of voting rights in the Company, (b) to any acquisition or disposal of shares resulting in a shareholding increasing above or decreasing below a threshold of three

PAGE 5

per cent (3%) of voting rights in the Company and (c), over and above three per cent (3%) of voting rights in the Company, to any acquisition or disposal of shares resulting in successive thresholds of one per cent (1%) of voting rights in the Company being crossed (either through an increase or a decrease).

In calculating the thresholds set out in this article 7 and applying the declaration obligations set out in this article 7, the voting rights set forth in articles 7 and 8 of the Law of 4 December 1992 shall be included as voting rights held by the person subject to the obligations described in this article.

7.2 Any person who, taking into account articles 7 and 8 of the Law of 4 December 1992, acquires shares resulting in possession of five per cent (5%) or more or a multiple of five percent (5%) or more of the voting rights in the Company must - on pain of the suspension of voting rights pursuant to article 13 of the Law of 4 December 1992 - inform the Company within ten (10) Luxembourg Stock Exchange trading days following the date such threshold is crossed by registered mail return receipt requested of such person’s intention (a) to acquire or dispose of shares in the Company within the next twelve (12) months, (b) to seek to obtain control over the Company or (c) to seek to appoint a member to the Company's board of directors.

7.3 Any person under an obligation to notify the Company of the acquisition of shares conferring on that person, having regard to articles 7 and 8 of the Law of 4 December 1992, one quarter or more of the total voting rights in the Company shall be obliged to make, or cause to be made, in each country where the Company's securities are admitted to trading on a regulated or other market and in each of the countries in which the Company has made a public offering of its shares, an unconditional public offer to acquire for cash all outstanding shares and securities giving access to shares, linked to the share capital or whose rights are dependent on the profits of the Company (hereafter collectively “securities linked to capital”), whether those securities were issued by the Company or by entities controlled or established by it or members of its group. Each of these public offers must be conducted in conformity and compliance with the legal and regulatory requirements applicable to public offers in each State concerned.

In any case, the price must be fair and equitable and, in order to guarantee equality of treatment of shareholders and holders of securities linked to capital of the Company, the said public offers must be made at or on the basis of an identical price, which must be justified by a report drawn up by a first rank financial institution nominated by the Company whose fees and costs must be advanced by the person subject to the obligation laid down by this article.

This obligation to make an unconditional cash offer shall not apply if the acquisition of the Company's shares by the person making such notification has received the prior assent of the Company's shareholders in the form of a resolution adopted in conformity with article 19 of the present articles of association at a general meeting of shareholders, including in particular in the event of a merger or a contribution in kind paid for by a share issue.

7.4. If the public offer as described in article 7.3 of the present articles of association has not been made within a period of two (2) months of notification to the Company of the increase in the holding giving entitlement

PAGE 6

to the percentage of voting rights provided for in article 7.3 of the present articles of association or of notification by the Company to the shareholder that such increase has taken place, or if the Company is informed that a competent authority in one of the countries in which the securities of the Company are admitted to trading (or in one of the countries in which the Company has made a public offering of its shares) has determined that the public offer was made contrary to the legal or regulatory requirements governing public offers applicable in that country, as from the expiry of the aforementioned period of two (2) months or from the date on which the Company received that information, the right to attend and vote at general meetings of shareholders and the right to receive dividends or other distributions shall be suspended in respect of the shares corresponding to the percentage of the shares held by the shareholder in question exceeding the threshold fixed in article 7.3 of the present articles of association as from which a public offer has to be made.

A shareholder who has exceeded the threshold fixed by article 7.3 of the present articles of association and requires a general meeting of shareholders to be called pursuant to article 70 of the Law, must, in order to be able to vote at that meeting, have made a definitive and irrevocable public offer as described in article 7.3 of the present articles of association before that meeting is held. Failing this, the right to vote attaching to the shares exceeding the threshold laid down by article 7.3 of the present articles of association shall be suspended.

Where, at the date on which the annual general meeting is held, a shareholder exceeds the threshold laid down by article 7.3 of the present articles of association, his or her voting rights shall be suspended to the extent of the percentage exceeding the threshold laid down in article 7.3 of the present articles of association, save where the shareholder in question undertakes in writing not to vote in respect of the shares exceeding the threshold of one-quarter or where the shareholder has definitively and irrevocably made the public offer as provided for in article 7.3 of the present articles of association.

7.5. The provisions of article 7 shall not apply:

(i)to the Company itself in respect of shares directly or indirectly held in treasury,

(ii) to Depositories, acting as such, provided that said Depositories may only exercise the voting right attached to such shares if they have received instructions from the owner of the shares, the provisions of this article 7 thereby applying to the owner of the shares,

(iii) to any disposal and to any issue of shares by the Company in connection with a merger or a similar transaction or the acquisition by the Company of any other company or activity,

(iv)to the acquisition of shares resulting from a public offer for the acquisition of all the shares in the Company and all of the securities linked to capital,

(v)to the acquisition or transfer of a participation remaining below ten per cent (10%) of total voting rights by a market maker acting in this capacity, provided that:

a)it is approved by its home Member State by virtue of directive 2004/39/CE; and

PAGE 7

b)it neither interferes in the management of the Company nor exercises influence on the Company to acquire its shares or to maintain their price.

7.6. Voting rights are calculated on the basis of the entirety of the shares to which voting rights are attached even if the exercise of such voting rights is suspended.

Article 8. Board of directors

8.1. The Company shall be administered by a board of directors composed of at least three (3) members and of a maximum of eighteen (18) members; all of whom except the Chief Executive Officer (“administrateur-président de la direction générale”) shall be non-executive. None of the members of the board of directors, except for the Chief Executive Officerof the Company (“administrateur-président de la direction générale”), shall have an executive position or executive mandate with the Company or any entity controlled by the Company.

At least one-half of the board of directors shall be composed of independent members. A member of the board of directors shall be considered as “independent”, if (i) he or she is independent within the meaning of the Listed Company Manual of the New York Stock Exchange (the "Listed Company Manual"), as it may be amended, or any successor provision, subject to the exemptions available for foreign private issuers, and if (ii) he or she is unaffiliated with any shareholder owning or controlling more than two percent (2%) of the total issued share capital of the Company (for the purposes of this article, a person is deemed affiliated to a shareholder if he or she is an executive officer, or a director who is also employed by the shareholder, a general partner, a managing member, or a controlling shareholder of such shareholder).

8.2. The members of the board of directors do not have to be shareholders in the Company.

8.3.

8.6. Except for a meeting of the board of directors convened to elect a member to fill a vacancy as provided in the second paragraph of article 8.5, or to convene a general meeting of shareholders to deliberate over the election of Mittal Shareholder Nominees, and except in the event of a grave and imminent danger requiring an urgent board of directors' decision, which shall be approved by the directors elected from among the Mittal Shareholder Nominees, the board of directors of the Company will not be deemed to be validly constituted and will not be authorized to meet until the general meeting of shareholders has elected from among the Mittal Shareholder Nominees the number of members of the board of directors required under article 8.4.

PAGE 9

settlement) of any legal actions or proceedings, whether they be civil, criminal or administrative, to which he or she may be made a party by virtue of his or her former or current role as member of the board of directors or member of the management board of the Company.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a former or current member of the board of directors or member of the management board will not be indemnified if he or she is found guilty of gross negligence, fraud, fraudulent inducement, dishonesty or of the commission of a criminal offence or if it is ultimately determined that he or she has not acted honestly and in good faith and with the reasonable belief that his or her actions were in the Company’s best interests.

The aforementioned indemnification right shall not be forfeited in the case of a settlement of any legal actions or proceedings, whether they be civil, criminal or administrative.

The provisions above shall inure to the benefit of the heirs and successors of the former or current member of the board of directors or member of the management board without prejudice to any other indemnification rights that he or she may otherwise claim.

Subject to any procedures that may be implemented by the board of directors in the future, the expenses for the preparation and defence in any legal action or proceeding covered by this article 8.8 may be advanced by the Company, provided that the concerned former or current member of the board of directors or member of the management board delivers a written commitment that all sums paid in advance will be reimbursed to the Company if it is ultimately determined that he or she is not entitled to indemnification under this article 8.8.

Unless the Local Supplement provides for a cancellation right, the submission of the Subscription Form or the subscription online, as the case may be, will be an irrevocable and definitive subscription order and cannot be cancelled or rescinded by the Employee once such order has been submitted.

3.2 The Purchase Price will be equal to the Reference Price, less a discount equal to:

(a) 15% of the Reference Price for a purchase order not exceeding the lower of (x) 100 Shares and (y) the number of Shares (rounded down to the nearest whole number) corresponding to an investment of US$ 7,500 (the “First Cap”); and thereafter;

(b) 10% of the Reference Price for any additional acquisition of Shares up to a number of Shares (including those in the First Cap) not exceeding the lower of (x) 200 Shares and (y) the number of Shares (rounded down to the nearest whole number) corresponding to an investment of US$ 15,000 (the “Second Cap”).

3.3 The Subscription Amount (converted into the Employee’s Local Currency at the Initial FX Rate, if applicable) shall be payable in Local Currency in accordance with the terms and conditions set out in the relevant Local Supplement. In the event that an Employee fails in whole or in part to make such payment in accordance with the terms and conditions set out in the Local Supplement, his/her subscription shall be null, void and without effect. If the payment default is identified after the Settlement Date, then the Custodian will deliver the corresponding Shares to ArcelorMittal as soon as practicable. In case of a partial payment by an Employee, any such payment shall be refunded to the Employee without any accrual or payment of interest as soon as practicable through means such as payroll, wire transfer or check, at ArcelorMittal’s option.

ARTICLE 4. Reduction, Allocation and Settlement

4.1 If the total amount of the Subscription Amounts, as converted into U.S. dollars at the Initial FX Rate if applicable, of all Participants for whom no partial or total payment default has been identified as of 17:00 Central European time on the Stock Exchange Day immediately preceding the Allocation Date, corresponds to a number of Shares exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares, each Participant’s subscription order shall be reduced such that the number of Shares effectively purchased by him/her shall be equal to the sum of (i) one Share and (ii) the number of Shares (rounded down to the nearest whole number of Shares) corresponding to the product of (x) the ratio of (1) the excess of such Participant’s demand over one Share over (2) the aggregate demand of all the Participants in excess of one Share per Participant and (y) the difference between the Maximum Number of Shares and the number of Participants (for the avoidance of doubt, excluding any Participants for whom a partial or total payment default has been identified). The Subscription Amount of each Participant shall be reduced accordingly, based on the reduced

6

	number of Shares allocated to him or her, the Purchase Price and, if applicable, the Initial FX Rate.
4.2	As soon as practicable after the Settlement Date, each Participant will receive an individual allocation statement setting forth the final number of Shares allocated to such Employee under the ESPP 2009, as reduced in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.1 (the “Purchased Shares”).

4.3 Any excess payment made by a Participant resulting from the reduction contemplated by Section 4.1 shall be refunded to such Participant, without any accrual or payment of interest, as soon as practicable through means such as payroll, wire transfer or check, at ArcelorMittal’s option.

In order to attend a general meeting of shareholders in person or by proxy, Participants must contact the Custodian or use the documents enabling them to vote o the ArcelorMittal website (www.arcelormittal.com), which will be available as from the date of publication of the convening notice, which is announced by press release.

5.3 Any cash dividend paid by ArcelorMittal on the Shares held in the U.S. Securities Account shall be paid to and deposited with the U.S. Custodian, net of applicable withholding tax, in a separate global U.S. dollar cash account opened and maintained for such purposes.

5.4 Any cash dividend paid by ArcelorMittal on the Shares held in the European Securities Account shall be paid to and deposited with the European Custodian, net of applicable withholding tax, in a separate global euro cash account opened and maintained for such purposes.

The net amount of such dividends will accrue interest at the Interest Rate between the date of their receipt by the Custodian and the last day of the month preceding the month during which dividends are effectively paid to the Participant. The Custodian will provide the Participant with annual statements indicating the amount of the dividend earned by the Participant on his/her Shares, net of any applicable

7

withholding tax levied at the time of the payment of the dividends to the Custodian, together with the Interest Rate applied for the relevant period. Payment of the dividends (and interest accrued thereon) to the Participants will be made net of any applicable withholding tax and in Local Currency, based on the applicable foreign exchange rate when the Local Currency differs from the functional currency of the cash account to which the dividends were credited.

ArcelorMittal will bear any bookkeeping costs incurred in connection with the custody of the Purchased Shares until the earlier of the Expiration Date and the early sale or delivery of the Purchased Shares in accordance with Article 8, as the case may be.

Any other costs (including any brokerage and related fees and stock exchange duties) incurred in connection with the sale of the Purchased Shares in accordance with Article 8, other than upon the death of the Participant, shall be borne by the Participants.

ARTICLE 6. Transfer Restrictions

Subject to the provisions of Article 8, no Purchased Shares and no interest therein may be assigned, transferred, sold, exchanged, pledged or otherwise encumbered or disposed of by a Participant or any beneficiary of any Participant until the Expiration Date. Any attempted assignment, transfer, sale, exchange, pledge or other encumbrance or disposition shall be null and void.

ARTICLE 7. Termination

7.1 Approximately 90 days prior to the Expiration Date, the Custodian shall distribute to the Participants a notice (the “Termination Notice”) pursuant to which the Participant may request, subject to compliance with the Insider Dealing Regulations, either the delivery to such Participant of all of his/her Purchased Shares or the sale of all of his/her Purchased Shares by the relevant Custodian on the Open Market on his/her behalf. The Termination Notice shall set forth a deadline for Participants to return a duly completed Termination Notice to the Custodian.

7.2 As soon as possible after the Expiration Date and in accordance with the Termination Notice, the Custodian shall, in accordance with the Participant’s choice, cause all of his/her Purchased Shares to be delivered to him/her or cause such Shares to be sold on the Open Market on his/her behalf in accordance with Section 7.4. A combination of these alternatives will not be permitted.

7.3 Any Participant’s Purchased Shares for which the Custodian has not received a duly completed Termination Notice in due time will be sold on the Open Market as soon as possible after the Expiration Date on behalf of such Participant together with the Shares for which the Custodian has received or is deemed to have received a selling instruction. The provisions of Section 7.4 shall apply to such sale.

7.4 The relevant Custodian will cause the Purchased Shares as to which it has received a selling instruction or no instruction to be sold in accordance with the provisions of this Article 7 on the Open Market for the accounts of the relevant Participants at dates it shall determine in its sole discretion but not later than 15 Stock Exchange Days following the Expiration Date; provided, however, that this period may be extended by the Custodian in case of market disruption or in order to comply with the Insider Dealing Regulations or any other regulations that would restrict the ability of the Custodian to sell the Shares on the Open Market; provided, further, that the Custodian shall take all reasonable steps to obtain, when executing or transmitting sales instructions for execution pursuant to this Section 7, the best possible result for the Participating Employees, taking into account the price,

8

costs, speed, likelihood of execution and settlement, size, nature, or any other consideration relevant to the execution of these instructions, including the aggregation of the sales instructions in accordance with Section 7.3 (which may potentially result in a less favourable execution than in the absence of any such aggregation). The proceeds realised from such sale will be paid to each Participant entitled thereto in proportion to each Participant’s interest in the aggregate number of Shares sold. No interest will accrue or be paid in respect of the cash proceeds resulting from the sale. Payment to the Participants will be made net of any applicable withholding tax and in Local Currency, based on the applicable foreign exchange rate when the Local Currency differs from the currency of the Open Market. If a Participant cannot be reached at the address provided by him or her, such funds will continue to be held on his/her behalf until the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations. When this period has elapsed, the Custodian shall dispose of the corresponding sums in accordance with applicable laws. No interest will accrue or be paid in respect of such sums.

ARTICLE 8. Early Exit

A combination of these alternatives will not be permitted. The Company will be responsible for confirming the occurrence of an Early Exit Event and for transmitting the Early Exit Notice to the relevant Custodian. In the event that for a given Participant the Custodian receives an Early Exit Notice after having received a Termination Notice, the Early Exit Notice shall prevail.

8.2 As soon as practicable following the receipt of a properly completed Early Exit Notice, the Custodian shall, in accordance with the Participant’s choice, cause all of his/her Purchased Shares to be delivered to him/her, or cause such Shares to be sold on the Open Market on his/her behalf. In the latter case, the cash proceeds of the sale (net of applicable fees) shall be paid to the relevant Participant(s) as soon as practicable thereafter in Local Currency, based on the applicable foreign exchange rate when the Local Currency differs from the currency of the Open Market.

8.3 Upon the occurrence of an Early Exit Event, in the event that a Participant does not submit a properly completed Early Exit Notice on a timely basis, then his/her Shares shall be maintained in the relevant Securities Account and remain subject to the terms and conditions of the ESPP 2009, including the transfer restrictions, until the earlier of the Expiration Date or the occurrence of a subsequent Early Exit Event for which the Participant submits a properly completed Early Exit Notice.
