(b) procure that the Parent shall issue to the Sellers a number of 2,000,000 (in words: two million) shares of common stock of the Parent (the Parent Common Stock), free from any Encumbrances (the Consideration Shares) to be held by such Seller as set out in Clause 3.2.

The Initial Purchase Price shall be irrevocable and non-refundable, except as otherwise provided for in this Agreement. The Initial Purchase Price and the Preferred Payment hereinafter referred to as the Base Purchase Price.

The Sellers acknowledge and agree that the Consideration Shares will be subject to certain lock-up requirements all as further set out in the Lock-Up Agreement.

3.3 Adjustment of the Base Purchase Price

3.3.1 The Parties acknowledge and agree that the Base Purchase Price has been determined on the basis that the Company shall have a Working Capital equal to an amount of EUR 0 (in words: nil euro) and that there is no Debt as at the Balance Sheet Date, other than the deferred purchase price amounting to EUR 825,000 in relation to the acquisition of Twisted Heads B.V. and the car lease amounting to EUR 36,000, all as further set out in Annex 3.3.2.

3.3.2 On the basis of the unaudited balance sheet of the Company as at the Balance Sheet Date, prepared in accordance with the Accounting Principles as attached hereto as Annex 3.3.2 (the Estimated Balance Sheet), the Company has a Working Capital of an negative amount of EUR 2,566,000 (in words: two million five hundred and sixty six thousand euro) which includes the Dividend Payable as defined in Clause 4.3 (the Estimated Working Capital) and the Company has prepaid an amount of EUR 396,000 (in words: three hundred and ninety-six thousand euro) in relation to the acquisition of Twisted Heads Holding B.V. Consequently, as further set out in Annex

3.3.2, the Base Purchase Price shall be adjusted with an amount equal to EUR 1,085,000 (in words: one million and eighty-five thousand euro) (the Estimated Base Purchase Price Adjustment). An amount equal to the Estimated Base Purchase Price Adjustment shall be credited against the final Installment of the Preferred Payment, as mentioned under Clause 4.2(e).

3.3.3 No later than one-hundred twenty (120) Business Days after Completion, the Sellers shall provide the Purchaser with the Interim Accounts consisting of the line items set out in the Estimated Balance Sheet and the working papers in connection therewith, setting forth the amount of Working Capital and Debt as at the Balance Sheet Date (collectively, the Interim Accounts). Purchaser, at its sole expense, has the right to assign a third party financial firm, which said firm to be mutually agreed upon by the Sellers and the Purchaser, to assist and oversee the Sellers in preparing the Interim Accounts.

3.3.4 Within a period of ninety (90) Business Days after receipt by the Purchaser of the Interim Accounts, the Purchaser shall inform the Sellers in writing whether they agree to or disputes the Interim Accounts in whole or in part (the Interim Accounts Notice). If no Interim Accounts Notice is received by the Sellers within such ninety (90) Business Days term, the Interim Accounts shall be deemed to be agreed between and binding upon the Parties (the Final Interim Accounts). If the Interim Accounts are (partially) disputed by the Purchaser in the Interim Accounts Notice received by the Sellers within such ninety (90) Business Day period, the Parties shall, within a period of thirty (30) Business Days after the receipt of the Interim Accounts Notice by the Sellers, endeavour to agree on the Interim Accounts. If such agreement is reached the Interim Accounts shall become the Final Interim Accounts.

3.3.5 If the Sellers and Purchaser fail so to agree within the said thirty (30) Business Days period, either the Sellers or the Purchaser may refer any dispute for resolution to a reputable “Big Four” international accounting firm (other than the existing auditors of the Sellers or the Purchaser) (the Expert) appointed (i) by the Sellers and the Purchaser or (ii) in default of agreement on such appointment within five (5) Business Days, by the chairman of the Netherlands Institute of Chartered Accountants (NBA, Nederlandse Beroepsorganisatie van Accountants). The Expert shall be instructed to render its opinion as soon as practicable and in any event within twenty (20) Business Days after the date of the engagement letter pursuant to which the Expert is formally instructed to render its opinion.

3.3.6 In making its determination the Expert shall act as an expert and not as an arbitrator and the decision of the Expert shall (in the absence of manifest error) be final and binding on the Parties (bindend advies). The expenses of the Expert shall be shared equally unless allocated otherwise by the Expert. The Expert shall be entitled to determine the procedure applicable to its determination.

3.3.7 The Interim Accounts shall be adjusted on the basis of the Expert’s resolution of such dispute and as so adjusted shall become the Final Interim Accounts.

3.3.8 In the event the amount of Working Capital as at the Balance Sheet Date as appears

from the Final Interim Accounts (the Actual Working Capital) deviates from the amount equal to the Estimated Working Capital, the Base Purchase Price shall be adjusted downward in the event the Actual Working Capital is less than the Estimated Working Capital and upward in the event the Actual Working Capital is more than the Estimated Working Capital by an amount equal to fifty per cent. (50%) of the amount by which the Actual Working Capital deviates from the Estimated Working Capital (the Working Capital Adjustment).

3.3.9 In the event the amount of Debt of the Group Companies exceeds an amount EUR 0 (in words: nil euro) as at the Balance Sheet Date as appears from the Final Interim Accounts, the Base Purchase Price shall be adjusted by an amount equal to fifty per cent. (50%) of such excess (such excess the Debt Adjustment, and the Debt Adjustment and the Working Capital Adjustment together, the Difference). For the avoidance of doubt debt items taken into account in the Working Capital Adjustment will not be taken into account in the Debt Adjustment.

3.3.10 An amount equal to the Difference (if any) shall be credited against the final Installment of the Preferred Payment, as mentioned under Clause 4.2(e). For the avoidance of doubt, such Difference (if any) shall be credited against the final Installment of the Preferred Payment in addition to the Estimated Base Purchase Price Adjustment.

3.3.11 The provisions of this Clause 3.3 shall mutatis mutandis apply in the event the Sellers sell and transfer the Ordinary Shares held by them to the Purchaser in accordance with the provisions of Clause 10.

3.4 Negative Tax consequences

3.4.1 Any and all Tax consequences as a result of the division of the Base Purchase Price and any adjustment thereof between the Sellers will be for the risk and account of the Sellers and the Sellers hereby indemnify and hold the Purchaser Indemnified Parties harmless for any such Tax consequences.

3.5 Parent undertaking

The Parent undertakes to issue to the Sellers the Consideration Shares at Completion subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

4 PREFERRED PAYMENT

4.1 The Parties acknowledge and agree that the Sellers shall be entitled to preferred payments from any dividends distributed by the Company in an aggregate amount equal to EUR 12,150,000 (in words: twelve million one hundred fifty thousand euro) (the Preferred Payment), on the terms and subject to the conditions of this Clause 4 and the provisions of clause 2.3 of the Shareholders’ Agreement.

4.2 The Preferred Payment will be paid to the Sellers in the following minimum installments (each, an Installment), unless the Purchaser, in its sole discretion, elects to accelerate the Preferred Payment in whole or in part:

(e) an initial amount of EUR 2,700,000 (in words: two million seven hundred thousand euro), which shall be reduced by an amount equal to the Estimated Base Purchase Price Adjustment, in accordance with the provisions of Clause 3.3.2, and adjusted by an amount equal to the Difference (if any), in accordance with the provisions of Clause 3.3.10, within five (5) Business Days after the Annual Accounts in respect of the financial year 2019 have been adopted.

The Parties hereby acknowledge and agree that the Preferred Payment and the Installments as set out in this Clause 4.2 shall, to the extent possible, be set off against the dividend distributions on the Prefs B, all as further set out in Clause 4.5(a).

4.3 The Preferred Payment will be paid to the Sellers, on the terms and subject to the conditions of this Clause 4, in the following order:

(i) fifty per cent. (50%) of the Preferred Payment shall be paid to Lewis and shall be considered to be a payment in respect of the Shares 1;

(ii) fifty per cent. (50%) of the Preferred Payment shall be paid to Hardenberg and shall be considered to be a payment in respect of the Shares 2.

4.4 Parties acknowledge that the Estimated Balance Sheet as at the Balance Sheet Date includes a EUR 1,564,000 (in words: one million and five hundred and sixty four

thousand euro) dividend payable to the Sellers (the Dividend Payable). In the event the Company has distributed dividends up to an amount equal to the Threshold (as defined in the SHA) to the Sellers, the Parties shall procure that the Company shall distribute 100 eurocents of every euro of declared dividend up to an amount of the Dividend Payable to the Sellers subject to (i) the Prefs A and B having been cancelled; (ii) the Company having sufficient funds available to pay the Dividend Payable to the Sellers as well as to pay its debts relating to the one year period after such distribution; and (iii) such distribution being permitted under the DCC and the Articles of Association. On the Completion Date the general meeting of shareholders of the Company shall resolve to distribute the Dividend Payable on a date after the date of payment of the final Installment of the Preferred Payment.

4.5 Each Installment shall be paid to the Sellers as follows:

(a) to the extent possible, the Parties shall procure that an Installment shall be paid in full through the distribution of dividends by the Company on the Prefs B in the corresponding financial year; and

(b) to the extent an Installment cannot be paid in full in accordance with the provisions of sub (a), the Sellers and the Purchaser shall inform each other and the Company thereof in writing by way of a notice stating the deficit (the Deficit, i.e. the remainder of the Installment that is still outstanding pursuant to the Installment not having been paid out in full pursuant to Clause 4.5(a)), (such notice, the Deficit Notice). Within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of the Deficit Notice the Purchaser and the Sellers shall inform each other in writing whether they agree or dispute the Deficit as set out in the Deficit Notice. In the event of a dispute of the Deficit as set out in the Deficit Notice, the provisions of Clause 3.3.4 up through and including Clause 3.3.7 shall apply mutatis mutandis. In the event the Sellers and the Purchaser agree to the Deficit as set out in the Deficit Notice or in the event of a dispute, immediately after the Deficit has been established in accordance with Clause 3.3.4 up through and including Clause 3.3.7, such Deficit shall subsequently be paid by the Purchaser to the Sellers in cash within ten (10) Business Days after respectively the Sellers and Purchaser have agreed on the Deficit or the Deficit has been established in accordance with Clause 3.3.4 up through and including Clause 3.3.7.

4.6 Additionally, the Parties hereby acknowledge and agree that:

(a) if the aggregate amount of dividends distributed on the Prefs B in any given financial year exceeds the amount of the corresponding Installment for such financial year, the amount of the excess (the Excess Payment) shall, after distribution thereof on the Prefs B, be credited to future Installments in chronological order, unless such (part of an) Excess Payment is used to acquire any Deficit Shares in accordance with the provisions of Clause 4.7. For the avoidance of doubt, an Excess Payment in any given financial year shall act as a credit against future Deficits, so that any Deficit payments to be paid to the Sellers will be decreased by the Excess Payment; and

(b) they shall procure that, as soon as possible after the Preferred Payment has been paid in full in accordance with this Clause 4, but in any case within five (5) Business Days, the Prefs A and the Prefs B shall be cancelled without any further consideration due, all as further set out in the Shareholders’ Agreement.

4.7 Notwithstanding the provisions of Clause 4.6, to the extent that Deficit Shares have been issued and to the extent that there is an Excess Payment, the Purchaser shall (also) have the right to use such Excess Payment to procure that a certain number of Deficit Shares held by the Sellers will be repurchased by the Company against payment of such Excess Payment with the aim of restoring the Purchaser as holder of fifty per cent. (50%) of the Ordinary Shares. In the event the amount of the Excess Payment is equal to or exceeds the amount of the Deficit, as adjusted from time to time, plus any interest accrued thereon in accordance with Clause 4.9, the number of Deficit Shares to be repurchased by the Company from the Sellers (on a pro rata basis) shall be equal to such number of Ordinary Shares A that is required for the Purchaser to hold fifty per cent. (50%) of the Ordinary Shares. To the extent the Excess Payment exceeds the Deficit plus any interest accrued thereon in accordance with Clause 4.9, and thus all of the Deficit Shares outstanding are repurchased by the Company, such excess shall then be allocated in accordance with the provisions of Clause 4.6. In the event the Excess Payment does not exceed the amount of the Deficit, as adjusted from time to time, the number of Deficit Shares to be repurchased by the Company from the Sellers in accordance with this Clause 4.7 shall be determined in accordance with the following formula:

Deficit Shares to be repurchased by the Company = (Excess Payment /aggregate amount of Deficit) x total number of Deficit Shares issued

For example, in a certain financial year there was a Deficit of EUR 1,000,000, and 73,333 Deficit Shares have been issued to the Sellers in accordance with Clause 6. In the financial year following such year, there is an Excess Payment of EUR 500,000. The Company shall than repurchase (EUR 500,000 / EUR 1,000,000) x 73,333 = 36,666 Deficit Shares from the Sellers.

Each of the Parties hereby undertakes to provide all necessary cooperation for the repurchasing of Deficit Shares by the Company from the Sellers in accordance with the provisions of this Clause 4.7.

4.8 In order to give full effect to this Clause 4, the Purchaser, each of the Sellers and the Company shall use its best efforts to procure that in each year, to the extent prudent and permitted by law, the Articles of Association, and any financing arrangements of the Company, the Company shall declare all of its distributable profits as dividend (i.e. the Purchaser and the Sellers shall so resolve in their capacity as shareholders of the Company and the Company shall cooperate to such distribution, all as set forth in clause 2.3 of the Shareholders’ Agreement), all in the manner as further set out in the Shareholders’ Agreement.

4.9 In the event the Purchaser defaults on a due and payable payment obligation in relation to a Deficit, the amount of such Deficit shall accrue interest, in accordance with Clause 25.2.

5 DIVERSION OF SFX TOURING BUSINESS

5.1 The Purchaser and the Parent hereby agree, so long as the Purchaser or Parent holds at least twenty-five per cent. (25%) of the Ordinary Shares, to divert any future SFX Touring Business to the Company as a share premium contribution on the Ordinary Shares held by the Purchaser after Completion if and when the artist and/or tour manager/owner is willing to divert to the Company and the Company is willing to accept such SFX Touring Business.

6 SECURITY

6.1 Subject to the provisions of this Clause 6, the Parent hereby guarantees the obligations of the Purchaser (i) to pay the Preferred Payment and (ii) to perform its obligations under Clauses 7 and/or 10.

6.2 In the event the Purchaser has not, or has not fully, complied with its obligations to pay the Deficit pursuant to Clause 4.5(b), the Sellers and the Purchaser shall inform each other, the Company and the Parent thereof in writing by way of a notice stating the Deficit (the Parent Deficit Notice). Upon receipt of the Parent Deficit Notice, the Parent shall be obliged to pay the Deficit to the Sellers within fifteen (15) Business Days thereafter. In the event the Parent defaults on its obligation to (fully) pay the Deficit, the Sellers shall be entitled to request the Company to issue to the Sellers on a pro rata basis a certain number of Ordinary Shares A, at a price per Ordinary Share A equal to the nominal value, which shall cause a dilution in the percentage of Ordinary Shares held by the Purchaser (the Deficit Shares). The percentage by which Purchaser’s Ordinary Shares are diluted (the Purchaser Dilution Percentage) shall represent the differential between Purchaser’s and Sellers’ new respective percentage ownership of Ordinary Shares. The Purchaser Dilution Percentage and the number of Deficit Shares to be issued to Sellers shall be determined in accordance with the formulae and examples as set out below and as further set out in Annex 6.2:

Purchaser Dilution Percentage = (Deficit / EUR 25,000,000) x 100%

For example, if the Deficit is equal to an amount of EUR 1,000,000, the Purchaser Dilution Percentage shall be: EUR 1,000,000 / EUR 25,000,000 x 100% = 4%. The Sellers shall be entitled to a number of Deficit Shares to increase their percentage Ordinary Shares to 52%, and

Purchaser’s percentage of Ordinary Shares thus will be diluted to 48%, reflecting a 4% differential.

After having calculated the Purchaser Dilution Percentage, the number of Deficit Shares to be issued to the Sellers on a pro rata basis and the new number of Ordinary Shares outstanding shall be determined in accordance with the formulae as set out in Annex 6.2 and as explained in the below example:

For example, if the Purchaser Dilution Percentage is 4%, a number of Deficit Shares shall be issued to Sellers in order to dilute Purchaser’s percentage of Ordinary Shares down to 48%. Purchaser’s number of Ordinary Shares, i.e. 880,000, does not change, so the Company must issue a number of shares such that 880,000 Ordinary Shares will equate to 48% of the total number of outstanding Ordinary Shares, or 1,833,333 Ordinary Shares. From the new number of total Ordinary Shares (1,833,333), the Sellers’ new number of Ordinary Shares (953,333) and number of Deficit Shares to be issued (73,333) can be calculated.

The Sellers and the Purchaser hereby agree to use all their voting and other rights to procure that the Company shall issue to the Sellers the Deficit Shares as referred to in this Clause 6.2.

6.3 In the event Deficit Shares have been issued, such Deficit shall not accrue any interest except in the event such Deficit Shares are being repurchased by the Company pursuant to Clauses 4.7 and/or 6.4 in which event interest shall accrue in accordance with the provisions of Clauses 4.9.

6.4 Within a one (1) year period from the date of the issuance of any Deficit Shares, the Purchaser shall be entitled to procure that the Company shall repurchase a number of Ordinary Shares A from the Sellers (on a pro rata basis) without any consideration being due equal to such number of Ordinary Shares A that is required for the Purchaser to hold fifty per cent. (50%) of the Ordinary Shares against payment by the Purchaser to the Sellers of an amount equal to the amount of the Deficit in relation to which such Deficit Shares have been issued including any interest accrued thereon in accordance with Clause 4.9. For the avoidance of doubt, an Excess Payment in the subsequent year may be used to procure that the Company repurchases any Ordinary Shares A, all in accordance with Clause 4.7.

Each of the Parties hereby undertakes to provide all necessary cooperation for the repurchasing of Ordinary Shares A by the Company from the Sellers in accordance with the provisions of Clauses 4.7 and 6.4.

6.5 In the event the Purchaser is in default with its financial obligations pursuant to Clauses 7 and/or 10, the Sellers and the Purchaser shall inform each other and the Company thereof in writing by way of a notice stating the deficit (the Put Deficit, being an amount equal to the remainder of any amounts still outstanding as a result of the Purchaser not having complied in full with its obligations pursuant to Clauses 7 and/or 10). The procedure contained in Clauses 4.7, 6.2 and 6.4 shall apply mutatis mutandis to the Put Deficit.

7 PURCHASE AND SALE PUT CONSIDERATION SHARES

7.1.1 CS Put Option
