At or prior to the Closing Date, PubCo shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, with the Exchange Agent the Merger Consideration. At or as promptly as practicable following the Second Merger Effective Time, PubCo shall send, or shall cause the Exchange Agent to send, to each Kcompany Shareholder a letter of transmittal for use in such exchange, in a form reasonably acceptable to the Company and Kcompany (a “Kcompany Letter of Transmittal”) and to each Company Shareholder a letter of transmittal for use in such exchange, in a form reasonably acceptable to the Company and Kcompany (a “Company Letter of Transmittal”).

(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article II, any obligation on PubCo under this Agreement to issue PubCo Ordinary Shares to Kcompany Shareholders or Company Shareholders shall be satisfied by PubCo by issuing such PubCo Ordinary Shares to the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) or to such other clearing service or issuer of depositary receipts (or their nominees, in either case) as may be necessary or expedient, and each Kcompany Shareholder and Company Shareholder shall hold such PubCo Ordinary Shares in book-entry form or through a holding of depositary receipts and the DTC or its nominee or the relevant clearing service or issuer of depositary receipts (or their nominees, as the case may be), will be the holder of record of such PubCo Ordinary Shares.

(c) Each Kcompany Shareholder shall be entitled to receive its portion of the Initial Merger Consideration in respect of the Kcompany Ordinary Shares and in the form of PubCo Ordinary Shares as set forth in 2.02(f)(i) as soon as reasonably practicable after the Initial Merger Effective Time, but subject to the delivery to the Exchange Agent of the following items prior thereto: (i) the certificate(s), if any, representing such Kcompany Ordinary Shares (“Kcompany Certificates”) (or a Lost Certificate Affidavit) and (ii) a properly completed and duly executed Kcompany Letter of Transmittal. Until so surrendered, each such Kcompany Certificate shall represent after the Initial Merger Effective Time for all purposes only the right to receive such portion of the Initial Merger Consideration attributable to such Kcompany Shares (as evidenced by the Kcompany Certificate).

(e) If any portion of the Merger Consideration is to be delivered or issued to a person other than the person in whose name the surrendered Shareholder Certificate is registered immediately prior to the Initial Merger Effective Time or Second Merger Effective Time, as applicable, it shall be a condition to such delivery that (i) in the case of Company Shares, the transfer of such Company Shares shall have been permitted in accordance with the terms of the Company Articles of Association and in case of Kcompany Ordinary Shares, the transfer of such Kcompany Ordinary Shares shall have been permitted in accordance with the terms of the Kcompany MAA, (ii) the recipient of such portion of the Merger Consideration, or the person in whose name such portion of the Merger Consideration is delivered or issued, shall have already executed and delivered duly executed counterparts to the applicable Transmittal Documents as are reasonably deemed necessary by the Exchange Agent and (iii) the person requesting such delivery shall have paid to the Exchange Agent any transfer or other Taxes required as a result of such delivery to a person other than the registered holder of such Shareholder Certificate, or establish to the satisfaction of the Exchange Agent that such Tax has been paid or is not payable.

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the event that any Shareholder Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, in lieu of delivery of a Shareholder Certificate to the Exchange Agent, the Kcompany Shareholder or Company Shareholder, as applicable, may instead deliver to the Exchange Agent an affidavit of lost certificate and indemnity of loss in form and substance reasonably acceptable to PubCo (a “Lost Certificate Affidavit”), which at the reasonable discretion of PubCo may include a requirement that the owner of such lost, stolen or destroyed Shareholder Certificate deliver a bond in such sum as it may reasonably direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against PubCo, the Company or Kcompany with respect to the Company Shares or Kcompany Ordinary Shares, as applicable, represented by the Shareholder Certificates alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed. Any Lost Certificate Affidavit properly executed and delivered in accordance with this Section 2.05(f) shall, unless the context otherwise requires, be treated as a Shareholder Certificate for all purposes of this Agreement.

(g) After the Second Merger Effective Time, the shareholder register of the Company shall be closed, and thereafter there shall be no further registration on the shareholder register of the Company of transfers of Company Shares that were issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Second Merger Effective Time.

No dividends or other distributions declared or made after the date of this Agreement with respect to PubCo Ordinary Shares with a record date after the Second Merger Effective Time (in the case of Company Shares) or the Initial Merger Effective Time (in the case of Kcompany Shares) will be paid to the holders of any Company Shares that were issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Second Merger Effective Time or Kcompany Shares that were issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Initial Merger Effective Time (as applicable) in either case until the holders of record of such Company Shares or Kcompany Shares (as applicable) shall have provided the applicable Transmittal Documents in accordance with Section 2.05(c) and Section 2.05(d). Subject to applicable Law, following the delivery of the applicable Transmittal Documents, the Exchange Agent shall promptly deliver to the record holders thereof, without interest, the applicable Merger Consideration and the amount of any such dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Second Merger Effective Time or the Initial Merger Effective Time, as applicable, theretofore paid with respect to such PubCo Ordinary Shares.

(h) All securities issued upon the surrender of Shareholder Certificates (or delivery of a Lost Certificate Affidavit) in accordance with the terms hereof shall be deemed to have been issued in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to Kcompany Shares or Company Shares, as applicable, represented by such Shareholder Certificates. Any portion of the Merger Consideration made available to the Exchange Agent pursuant to Section 2.05(a) that remains unclaimed by Kcompany Shareholders or Company Shareholders one year after the Initial Merger Effective Time shall be returned to PubCo, upon demand, and any such Kcompany Shareholder or Company Shareholder, as applicable, who has not exchanged its Kcompany Shares or Company Shares, as applicable, for the applicable portion of the Merger Consideration in accordance with this Article II prior to that time shall thereafter look only to PubCo for payment of the portion of the Merger Consideration in respect of such Kcompany Shares or Company Shares, as applicable, without any interest thereon (but with any dividends paid with respect thereto). Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of PubCo or any party hereto or any Representative of any of the foregoing shall be liable to any person for any amount properly paid to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law.

SECTION 2.06. Withholding. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Kcompany, PubCo, the Group Companies and the Exchange Agent shall be entitled to take such actions as are reasonably necessary to deduct and withhold (or cause to be deducted and withheld) from any amounts payable or otherwise deliverable to any person pursuant to this Agreement such Taxes and other amounts as are required to be deducted and withheld under applicable Tax Law. To the extent that amounts are so deducted and withheld and timely remitted to the applicable Governmental Authority, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this

Agreement as having been paid to the person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made. Each of Kcompany, PubCo, the Group Companies and the Exchange Agent, as applicable, is hereby authorized to sell or otherwise dispose of, on behalf of such person, such portion of any share or other security deliverable to such person as is necessary to provide sufficient funds to Kcompany, PubCo, the Group Companies or the Exchange Agent, as the case may be, to enable it to comply with such deduction and withholding requirement and Kcompany, PubCo, the Group Companies or the Exchange Agent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to notify such person thereof and remit the applicable portion of the net proceeds of such sale to the appropriate Governmental Authority and, if applicable, any portion of such net proceeds that is not required to be so remitted shall be paid to such person.

(b) On the Closing Date, each of the Company and Kcompany shall obtain (at each such party’s sole cost and expense) a non-cancelable run-off directors and officers “tail” insurance policy (providing coverage that, taken as a whole, is no less favorable than under such person’s policy as in effect on the date of this Agreement), for a period of six (6) years after the Closing Date to provide insurance coverage for events, acts or omissions occurring on or prior to

the Closing Date for all persons who were directors or officers of the Company or Kcompany, as applicable, on or prior to the Closing Date (the “D&O Tail”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall either party be required to expend on the premium of such D&O Tail more than $1,011,000 (the “Premium Cap”). If such minimum coverage under any such D&O Tail is or becomes unavailable at the Premium Cap, then any such D&O Tail shall contain the maximum coverage available at the Premium Cap.

It is understood and agreed that no such notification will affect or be deemed to modify the conditions to the obligations of the parties to consummate the Transactions or the remedies available to the parties under this Agreement. The terms and conditions of the Confidentiality Agreement apply to any information provided under this Section 7.09.

No party to this Agreement shall agree to participate in any meeting with any Governmental Authority in respect of any filings, investigation or other inquiry unless it consults with the other parties in advance and, to the extent permitted by such Governmental Authority, gives the other parties the opportunity to attend and participate at such meeting.

as the other parties may reasonably request in connection with the foregoing. Subject to the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement, the parties will provide each other with copies of all material correspondence, filings or communications, including any documents, information and data contained therewith, between them or any of their Representatives, on the one hand, and any Governmental Authority or members of its staff, on the other hand, with respect to this Agreement and the Transactions.

In the event of a Regulatory Filing, each of the Company, PubCo, Kcompany, and their respective affiliates shall use reasonable best efforts to cooperate and coordinate with the other parties in preparing and submitting the Regulatory Filing and in obtaining regulatory approval from the appropriate Governmental Authority, including, to the extent permitted by applicable Law and subject to customary confidentiality restrictions and all applicable privileges (including the attorney-client privilege) and consistent with any instruction or direction from the respective Governmental Authority, consultation on information to be presented to the Governmental Authority and sharing of draft documents prior to submission, prompt notification of any communication from the Governmental Authority or any of its member agencies, and in connection with resolving any investigation or other inquiry of the Governmental Authority or any of its member agencies. The Company, PubCo, Kcompany, and their respective affiliates shall take or accept any actions, conditions, or restrictions proposed by the appropriate Governmental Authority as a condition of obtaining regulatory approval with respect to a Regulatory Filing; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to accept any actions, conditions, or restrictions that would have a material adverse impact on the Company’s business.

Creditor rights

10.1

Creditors rights under Luxembourg law

According to articles 1021-2 (2) 3° and 1021-9 (1) of the Luxembourg Law, creditors of the Merging Companies, whose claims predate the Effective Time, notwithstanding any agreement to the contrary, may apply, within two (2) months of such Effective Time, to the judge presiding the chamber of the Tribunal d’Arrondissement dealing with commercial matters in the district in which the registered office of the debtor company is located and sitting as in commercial and urgent matters, to obtain adequate safeguards of collateral for any matured or unmatured debts, where they can credibly demonstrate that due to the Cross-Border Merger, the satisfaction of their claims is at stake and that no adequate safeguards have been obtained from the Absorbing Company. The president of such chamber shall reject the application if the creditor is already in possession of adequate safeguards or if such safeguards are unnecessary, having regard to the financial situation of the company after the Cross-Border Merger. The debtor company may cause the application to be turned down by paying the creditor, even if it is a term debt.

If the safeguards are not provided within the time limit prescribed, the debt shall immediately fall due.

Further information on the creditors protection applicable to the creditors of the relevant Merging Company can be obtained free of charge at the registered office of each Merging Company.

10.2

Right of opposition of creditors under Cayman Islands law

The Absorbed Company has granted no fixed or floating security interests that are outstanding as at the date hereof.

Further information on the creditors protection applicable to the creditors of the relevant Merging Company can be obtained free of charge at the registered office of each Merging Company.
