behalf, information regarding transactions in Microsoft equity
securities from any third party, including the Company and any brokers,
dealers, employee benefit plan administrators and trustees, and I
hereby authorize any such third party to release any such
information to the Attorney-in-Fact.

I acknowledge that:

a) This Power of Attorney authorizes, but does not require, the
Attorney-in-Fact to act in his or her discretion on information
provided to such Attorney-in-Fact without independent verification
of such information;

b) Any documents prepared or executed by the Attorney-in-Fact on behalf

form and will contain such information as the Attorney-in-Fact, in his
or her discretion, deems necessary or desirable;

c) Neither the Company nor the Attorney-in-Fact assumes any liability
for my responsibility to comply with the requirements of
Section 13 or Section 16 of the Exchange Act or Rule 144, any liability
of mine for any failure to comply with such requirements, or
any liability of mine for disgorgement of profits under
Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act; and

d) This Power of Attorney does not relieve me from
responsibility for compliance with my obligations
under Section 13 or Section 16 of the Exchange Act, including,
without limitation, the reporting requirements under Section 13 or
Section 16 of the Exchange Act.

I hereby grant to the Attorney-in-Fact full power and
authority to do and perform each and every act and thing requisite,
necessary or advisable to be done in connection with the foregoing, as
fully, to all intents and purposes, as I might or could do
in person, hereby ratifying and confirming all that the Attorney-in-Fact,
or his or her substitute or substitutes, shall lawfully do or cause to be
done by authority of this Power of Attorney.

This Power of Attorney shall remain in full force and effect until I am
no longer required to file Forms 4 or 5 or Schedules 13D
or 13G or Forms 144 with respect to my holdings of and
transactions in securities of the Company, unless earlier revoked by me
in a signed writing delivered to the Attorney-in-Fact. This
Power of Attorney revokes all previous powers of attorney with respect to
the subject matter of this Power of Attorney.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have executed this Power of Attorney
as of May 14, 2026.
