    <remarks>The number of Shares (or, at the QH Hungary's option, the cash equivalent) to be delivered to the applicable bank on each Settlement Date is to be determined as follows: (a) if the volume-weighted average price per Share on the relevant valuation date, as reasonably determined by the applicable bank by reference to the Bloomberg Page &quot;KWR &lt;equity&gt; AQR &lt;Go&gt;&quot; (or any successor page thereto) (provided that, if such price is not so reported for any reason or is, in the applicable bank's reasonable discretion, erroneous, a price determined by the applicable bank in good faith and a commercially reasonable manner) (the &quot;Settlement Price&quot;) is equal to or less than $239.4600 per Share (or, in the case of each Tranche 2, $242.25 per Share) (the &quot;Forward Floor Price&quot;), QH Hungary will deliver to the applicable bank the Subject Number of Shares; (b) if the Settlement Price is between the Forward Floor Price and $258.6168 per Share (or, in the case of each Tranche 2, $285.86 per Share) (the &quot;Forward Cap Price&quot;), QH Hungary will deliver to the applicable bank a number of Shares equal to the Subject Number multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Forward Floor Price and the denominator of which is the Settlement Price; and (c) if the Settlement Price is greater than the Forward Cap Price, QH Hungary will deliver to the applicable bank a number of Shares equal to the product of (i) the Subject Number and (ii) a fraction (A) the numerator of which is the sum of (x) the Forward Floor Price and (y) the Settlement Price minus the Forward Cap Price, and (B) the denominator of which is the Settlement Price.</remarks>
