(ii)          Reallocation of Payments.  Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Lenders for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Section 11, Section 4.04 or otherwise), shall be applied at such time or times as follows: first, as Lead Borrower may request (so long as no Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement; second, if so determined by the Majority Lenders and Lead Borrower, to be held in a non-interest bearing deposit account and released in order to satisfy obligations of such Defaulting Lender to fund Loans under this Agreement; third, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; fourth, so long as no Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to Borrowers as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by Borrowers against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and fifth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (A) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share and (B) such Loans were made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 6 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of all non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of such Defaulting Lender.  Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender pursuant to this Section 2.05(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

2.06        Substitution of Lenders.  

(a)          Substitution Right.  If any Lender (an “Affected Lender”), (i) becomes a Defaulting Lender or (ii) does not consent to any amendment, waiver or consent to any Loan Document for which the consent of the Majority Lenders is obtained but that requires the consent of other Lenders (a “Non-Consenting Lender”), then (x) Borrowers may elect to pay in full such Affected Lender with respect to all Obligations due to such Affected Lender or (y) either Lead Borrower or Administrative Agent shall identify any willing Lender or Affiliate of any Lender or Eligible Transferee (in each case, a “Substitute Lender”) to substitute for such Affected Lender; provided that any substitution of a Non-Consenting Lender shall occur only with the consent of Administrative Agent.

(b)          Procedure.  To substitute such Affected Lender or pay in full all Obligations owed to such Affected Lender, Lead Borrower shall deliver a notice to such Affected Lender.  The effectiveness of such payment or substitution shall be subject to the delivery by Lead Borrower (or, as may be applicable in the case of a substitution, by the Substitute Lender) of (i) payment for the account of such Affected Lender, of, to the extent accrued through, and outstanding on, the effective date for such payment or substitution, all Obligations owing to such Affected Lender (which for the avoidance of doubt, shall not include any Prepayment Premium) and (ii) in the case of a substitution, an Assignment and Assumption executed by the Substitute Lender, which shall thereunder, among other things, agree to be bound by the terms of the Loan Documents.

(c)          Effectiveness.  Upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Sections 2.06(a) and (b), Administrative Agent shall record such substitution or payment in the Register, whereupon (i) in the case of any payment in full of an Affected Lender, such Affected Lender’s Commitments shall be terminated and (ii) in the case of any substitution of an Affected Lender, (A) such Affected Lender shall sell and be relieved of, and the Substitute Lender shall purchase and assume, all rights and claims of such Affected Lender under the Loan Documents, except that the Affected Lender shall retain such rights under the Loan Documents that expressly provide that they survive the repayment of the Obligations and the termination of the Commitments, (B) such Affected Lender shall no longer constitute a “Lender” hereunder and such Substitute Lender shall become a “Lender” hereunder and (C) such Affected Lender shall execute and deliver an Assignment and Assumption to evidence such substitution; provided,  however, that the failure of any Affected Lender to execute any such Assignment and Assumption shall not render such sale and purchase (or the corresponding assignment) invalid.

(a)          Repayment.  During the Interest-Only Period, no scheduled payments of principal of the Loans shall be due.  Each Borrower agrees to repay to the Lenders the outstanding principal amount of the Loans, on each Payment Date occurring after the Interest-Only Period, in equal installments.  The amounts of such installments shall be calculated by dividing (i) the sum of the aggregate principal amount of the Loans outstanding on the first day following the end of the Interest-Only Period, by (ii) the number of Payment Dates remaining prior to and including the Stated Maturity Date.

(b)          Application.  Any optional or mandatory prepayment of the Loans shall be applied to the installments thereof under Section 3.01(a) in the inverse order of maturity.  To the extent not previously paid, the principal amount of the Loans, together with all other outstanding Obligations, shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date.

3.02        Interest

(a)          Interest Generally.  Subject to Section 3.02(d), each Borrower agrees to pay to the Lenders interest on the unpaid principal amount of the Loans and the amount of all other outstanding Obligations, in the case of the Loans, for the period from the applicable Borrowing Date and, in the case of any other Obligation, from the date such other Obligation is due and payable, in each case, until paid in full, at a rate per annum equal to 12.50%.

(b)          Default Interest.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the interest payable pursuant to Section 3.02(a) shall increase automatically by 4.00% per annum (such aggregate increased rate, the “Default Rate”).  Notwithstanding any other provision herein (including Section 3.02(d)), if interest is required to be paid at the Default Rate, it shall be paid entirely in cash.

(c)          Interest Payment Dates.  Subject to Section 3.02(d), accrued interest on the Loans shall be payable in arrears on each Payment Date with respect to the most recently completed Interest Period in cash, and upon the payment or prepayment of the Loans (on the principal amount being so paid or prepaid); provided that interest payable at the Default Rate shall be payable from time to time on demand.

(d)          Paid In-Kind Interest.  Notwithstanding Section 3.02(a), at any time during the PIK Period, Lead Borrower, on behalf of Borrowers, may elect to pay the interest on the outstanding principal amount of the Loans payable pursuant to Section 3.01 as follows: (i) only 8.50% of the 12.50% per annum interest in cash and (ii) 4.00% of the 12.50% per annum interest

as compounded interest, added to the aggregate principal amount of the Loans (the amount of any such compounded interest being a “PIK Loan”).  The principal amount of each PIK Loan shall accrue interest in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement applicable to the Loans.

3.03        Prepayments

(a)          Optional Prepayments.  Upon prior written notice to Administrative Agent delivered pursuant to Section 4.03, each Borrower shall have the right at any time to optionally prepay in whole or in part the outstanding principal amount of the Loans (a “Redemption Date”) for an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Loans being prepaid plus the Prepayment Premium plus any accrued but unpaid interest and any fees then due and owing (such aggregate amount, the “Redemption Price”).  The applicable “Prepayment Premium” shall be an amount calculated pursuant to Section 3.03(a)(i).

(i)           If the Redemption Date occurs:

(A)         on or prior to the fourth (4th) Payment Date, the Prepayment Premium shall be an amount equal to 12.00% of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Loans  being prepaid on such Redemption Date;

(B)         after the fourth (4th) Payment Date, and on or prior to the eighth (8th) Payment Date, the Prepayment Premium shall be an amount equal to 6.00% of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Loans being prepaid on such Redemption Date;

(ii)          To determine the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Loans, and how many Payment Dates have occurred, as of any Redemption Date for purposes of Section 3.03(a):

(A)         if, as of such Redemption Date, Borrowers shall have made only one Borrowing, the number of Payment Dates shall be deemed to be the number of Payment Dates that shall have occurred following the first Borrowing Date;

(B)         if, as of such Redemption Date, Borrowers shall have made more than one Borrowing, then the Redemption Price shall equal the sum of multiple Redemption Prices calculated with respect to the Loans of each Borrowing, each of which Redemption Prices shall be calculated based on solely the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Loans borrowed in such Borrowing (and PIK Loans subsequently borrowed in respect of interest payments thereon), as though the applicable number of Payment Dates equals the number of Payment Dates that shall have occurred following the applicable Borrowing Date.  In the case of any partial prepayment, the amount of such prepayment shall be allocated to Loans made in the various Borrowings (and PIK Loans in respect thereof) in the order in which such Borrowings were made;

(iii)         No partial prepayment shall be made under this Section 3.03(a) in connection with any event described in Section 3.03(b).

The Prepayment Premium payable upon any prepayment shall be in addition to any payments required pursuant to the Amended Fee Letter.

(b)          Mandatory Prepayments.

(i)           Asset Sales.  In the event of any contemplated Asset Sale or series of Asset Sales (other than any Asset Sale permitted under Section 9.09(a),  (b), (c) (other than by the Swedish Borrower to the extent cash proceeds are received by it and held for a period of longer than five (5) Business Days), (d), or (h)) yielding Asset Sale Net Proceeds in excess of $1,000,000 in the aggregate, Lead Borrower shall provide ten (10) days’ prior written notice of such Asset Sale to Administrative Agent and, if within such notice period Majority Lenders or Administrative Agent advise Lead Borrower that the Majority Lenders require a prepayment pursuant to this Section 3.03(b)(i), Borrowers shall: (x) if the assets sold represent substantially all of the assets or Revenues from the sale of the Products, or represent any specific line of business which either on its own or together with other lines of business sold over the term of this Agreement account for Revenue from the sale of the Products generated by such lines of business exceeding 10% of the Revenue from the sale of the Products  in the immediately preceding year, prepay the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Loans in an amount equal to the Redemption Price applicable on the date of such Asset Sale in accordance with

Section 3.03(a), and (y) in the case of all other Asset Sales not described in the foregoing clause (x), prepay the Loans in an amount equal to the entire amount of the Asset Sale Net Proceeds of such Asset Sale, plus any accrued but unpaid interest and any fees (including any fees payable pursuant to the Amended Fee Letter) then due and owing, credited in the following order:

(A)         first, in reduction of Borrowers’ obligation to pay any unpaid interest and any fees then due and owing;

(B)         second, in reduction of Borrowers’ obligation to pay any Claims or Losses referred to in Section 13.03 then due and owing;

(C)         third, in reduction of Borrowers’ obligation to pay any amounts due and owing on account of the unpaid principal amount of the Loans;

(E)          fifth, to Borrowers or such other Persons as may lawfully be entitled to or directed by Borrowers to receive the remainder.

(ii)          Change of Control.  In the event of a Change of Control, Lead Borrower shall immediately provide notice of such Change of Control to Administrative Agent and, if within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of such notice Majority Lenders or Administrative Agent advise Lead Borrower in writing that the Majority Lenders require a prepayment pursuant to this Section 3.03(b)(ii), Borrowers shall prepay within three (3) Business Days after such written notice the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Loans in an amount equal to the Redemption Price applicable on the date of such Change of Control in accordance with Section 3.03(a) and pay any fees payable pursuant to the Amended Fee Letter.

(c)          Required AHYDO Payment.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if, at any Payment Date on or after September 30, 2022, the aggregate amount of accrued and unpaid original issue discount (as defined in Section 1273(a)(1) of the Code) on any Loan would, but for this Section 3.03(c), exceed an amount equal to the product of the issue price of such Loan multiplied by the yield to maturity (as defined in Treasury Regulations Section 1.12721(b)(1)(i)) of such Loan, the Borrowers shall prepay at each such applicable Payment Date, the minimum amount of principal plus accrued interest on such Loan necessary to prevent any of the accrued and unpaid interest and original issue discount on such Loan from being disallowed or deferred as a deduction under Section 163(e)(5) of the Code to the Borrowers; provided that such payment shall be accompanied by any fees payable under the Amended Fee Letter. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Back-End Facility Fee (as defined in the Amended Fee Letter) shall be payable pursuant to its terms and shall not be accelerated. No partial

4.04        Set-Off

(a)         Set-Off Generally.  Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, each of Administrative Agent, each Lender and each of their Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by Administrative Agent, any Lender and any of their Affiliates to or for the credit or the account of any Obligor against any and all of the Obligations, whether or not such Person shall have made any demand and although such obligations may be unmatured; provided that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.05 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff.  Administrative Agent and each Lender agree promptly to notify Borrowers after any such set-off and application; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.  The rights of Administrative Agent, each Lender and each of their Affiliates under this Section 4.04 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of set-off) that such Persons may have.

(b)          Exercise of Rights Not Required.  Nothing contained herein shall require Administrative Agent, any Lender or any of their respective Affiliates to exercise any such right or shall affect the right of such Person to exercise, and retain the benefits of exercising, any such right with respect to any other indebtedness or obligation of any Obligor.

4.05        Pro Rata Treatment

therefor, such Lender and Borrowers severally agree to pay to Administrative Agent forthwith, on demand, such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date on which such amount is made available to Borrowers but excluding the date of payment to Administrative Agent, at a rate equal to the greater of (A) the Federal Funds Effective Rate and (B) a rate reasonably determined by Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.  If Borrowers and such Lender shall pay such interest to Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to Borrowers the amount of such interest paid by Borrowers for such period.  If such Lender pays its share of the applicable borrowing to Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such borrowing.  Any payment by Borrowers shall be without prejudice to any claim Borrowers may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to Administrative Agent.

(b)          Unless Administrative Agent shall have received notice from Borrowers prior to the date on which any payment is due to Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders hereunder that Borrowers will not make such payment, Administrative Agent may assume that Borrowers have made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders the amount due.  In such event, if Borrowers have not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders severally agrees to repay to Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender, with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.  Nothing herein shall be deemed to limit the rights of Administrative Agent or any Lender against any Obligor.

(c)          If any Lender shall obtain any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off, or otherwise) on account of the principal of or interest on any Loan made by it or other obligations hereunder, as applicable (other than pursuant to a provision hereof providing for non-pro rata treatment), in excess of its Proportionate Share, of such payment on account of the Loans, such Lender shall (i) notify Administrative Agent of the receipt of such payment, and (ii) within five (5) Business Days of such receipt purchase (for cash at face value) from the other Lenders, as applicable (directly or through Administrative Agent), without recourse, such participations in the Loans made by them or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment ratably with each of the other Lenders in accordance with their respective Proportionate Shares, as applicable; provided,  however, that (A) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest and (B) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by any Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the

SECTION 5

YIELD PROTECTION, ETC.

5.01        Additional Costs

(a)          Change in Requirements of Law Generally.  If, on or after the Closing Date, the adoption of any Requirement of Law, or any change in any Requirement of Law, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any court or other Governmental Authority charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any of the Lenders (or its lending office) with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such Governmental Authority, shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve (including any such requirement imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), special deposit, contribution, insurance assessment or similar requirement, in each case that becomes effective after the Closing Date, against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, a Lender (or its lending office) or shall impose on a Lender (or its lending office) any other condition affecting the Loans or the Commitment, and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining the Loans, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material (other than (i) Indemnified Taxes, (ii) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of “Excluded Taxes” and (iii) Connection Income Taxes), then each Borrower shall pay to such Lender on demand such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduction.

(b)          Change in Capital Requirements.  If a Lender shall have determined that, on or after the Closing Date, the adoption of any Requirement of Law regarding capital adequacy, or any change therein, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such Governmental Authority, in each case that becomes effective after the Closing Date, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on capital of a Lender (or its parent) as a consequence of a Lender’s obligations hereunder or the Loans to a level below that which a Lender (or its parent) could have achieved but for such adoption, change, request or directive by an amount reasonably deemed by it to be material, then each Borrower shall pay to such Lender on demand such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender (or its parent) for such reduction.

(c)          Notification by Lender.  Each Lender (directly or through Administrative Agent) will promptly notify the Lead Borrower of any event of which it has knowledge, occurring after the Closing Date, which will entitle such Lender to compensation pursuant to this Section 5.01.  Before giving any such notice pursuant to this Section 5.01(c) such Lender shall designate a different lending office if such designation (x) will, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, such compensation and (y) will not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, be materially disadvantageous to such Lender.  A certificate of the Lender claiming compensation under this Section 5.01, setting forth the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder, shall be conclusive and binding on Borrowers in the absence of manifest error.

(d)          Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (x) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith and (y) all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall in each case be deemed to constitute a change in Requirements of Law for all purposes of this Section 5.01, regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued.

(f)           Treatment of Certain Refunds.  If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 5 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 5), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 5 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5.03(f), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this Section 5.03(f) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid.

(i)           Mitigation Obligations.  If any Borrower is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or to any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 5.01 or this Section 5.03, then, except as otherwise provided in Section 5.01(c), such Lender shall (at the request of the Lead Borrower) use commercially reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign and delegate its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or Affiliates if, in the sole reasonable judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment and delegation would (i) eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 5.01 or this Section 5.03, as the case may be, in the future, (ii) not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and (iii) not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. Each Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment and delegation.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that any Obligor shall form or acquire any new Subsidiary that is a First-Tier Foreign Subsidiary, such Obligor will promptly and in any event within thirty (30) days of the formation or acquisition of such Subsidiary (or such longer time as consented to by Administrative Agent in writing) grant a security interest and Lien in 65% of each class of voting Equity Interests and 100% of all other Equity Interests of such Subsidiary in favor of the Secured Parties as Collateral for the Obligations (provided that in the case of a First-Tier Foreign Subsidiary that is a Subsidiary Guarantor or Borrower, such Obligor shall grant a security interest and Lien in 100% of the Equity Interests of such Subsidiary in favor of the Secured Parties as Collateral for the Obligations), including entering into any necessary local law security documents and delivery of certificated securities issued by such First-Tier Foreign Subsidiary as required by this Agreement or the Security Agreement.

For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information furnished by Parent or any of its Subsidiaries relating to Parent or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by Parent or any of its Subsidiaries; provided that the source was not, to the knowledge of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, prohibited from disclosing such Information by a legal, contractual or fiduciary obligation.

defined below) by reason of the payment by such Subsidiary Guarantor of any Guaranteed Obligations, each other Subsidiary Guarantor shall, on demand of such Excess Funding Guarantor (but subject to the next sentence), pay to such Excess Funding Guarantor an amount equal to such Subsidiary Guarantor’s Pro rata Share (as defined below and determined, for this purpose, without reference to the properties, debts and liabilities of such Excess Funding Guarantor) of the Excess Payment (as defined below) in respect of such Guaranteed Obligations.  The payment obligation of a Subsidiary Guarantor to any Excess Funding Guarantor under this Section 14.08 shall be subordinate and subject in right of payment to the prior payment in full of the obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor under the other provisions of this Section 14 and such Excess Funding Guarantor shall not exercise any right or remedy with respect to such excess until payment and satisfaction in full of all of such obligations.For purposes of this Section 14.08, (i) “Excess Funding Guarantor” means, in respect of any Guaranteed Obligations, a Subsidiary Guarantor that has paid an amount in excess of its Pro rata Share of such Guaranteed Obligations, (ii) “Excess Payment” means, in respect of any Guaranteed Obligations, the amount paid by an Excess Funding Guarantor in excess of its Pro rata Share of such Guaranteed Obligations and (iii) “Pro Rata Share” means, for any Subsidiary Guarantor, the ratio (expressed as a percentage) of (x) the amount by which the aggregate present fair saleable value of all properties of such Subsidiary Guarantor (excluding any shares of stock or share capital, as applicable, of any other Subsidiary Guarantor) exceeds the amount of all the debts and liabilities of such Subsidiary Guarantor (including contingent, subordinated, unmatured and unliquidated liabilities, but excluding the obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder and any obligations of any other Subsidiary Guarantor that have been Guaranteed by such Subsidiary Guarantor) to (y) the amount by which the aggregate fair saleable value of all properties of all of the Subsidiary Guarantors exceeds the amount of all the debts and liabilities (including contingent, subordinated, unmatured and unliquidated liabilities, but excluding the obligations of each Borrower and the Subsidiary Guarantors hereunder and under the other Loan Documents) of all of the Subsidiary Guarantors, determined (A) with respect to any Subsidiary Guarantor that is a party hereto on the first Borrowing Date, as of such Borrowing Date, and (B) with respect to any other Subsidiary Guarantor, as of the date such Subsidiary Guarantor becomes a Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder.

14.09      General Limitation on Guaranteed Obligations.  In any action or proceeding involving any provincial, territorial or state corporate law, or any state or federal bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other law affecting the rights of creditors generally, if the obligations of any Subsidiary Guarantor under Section 14.01 (and/or any Borrower under Section 13.22 to the extent such co-borrowership would be deemed to constitute a guarantee by any Borrower under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation) would otherwise, taking into account the provisions of Section 14.08, be held or determined to be void, invalid or unenforceable, or subordinated to the claims of any other creditors, on account of the amount of its liability under Section 14.01 (and/or Section 13.22, as applicable), then, notwithstanding any other provision hereof to the

SECTION 15

INTERCOMPANY SUBORDINATION AGREEMENT

15.01      Subordination of Intercompany Obligations.

(a)          Each Obligor agrees that all Subordinated Intercompany Indebtedness shall be subordinate and junior in right of payment, to the extent and in the manner hereinafter set forth, to all Obligations of the Obligors under this Agreement (and other indebtedness and obligations in connection with any renewal, refunding, restructuring or refinancing thereof, including interest thereon accruing after the commencement of any proceedings referred to in clause (b) below, whether or not such interest is an allowed claim in such proceeding, being hereinafter collectively referred to in this Section 15.01 as “Senior Indebtedness”).  For purposes hereof, “Subordinated Intercompany Indebtedness” shall mean all obligations, liabilities and Indebtedness of an Obligor owed to another Obligor, whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, due or to become due, or now existing or hereafter incurred, including without limitation, principal, premium (if any), interest, fees, charges, expenses, costs, professional fees and expenses and reimbursement obligations.

(b)          In the event of any insolvency or bankruptcy proceedings, and any receivership, examinership, liquidation, reorganization or other similar proceedings in connection therewith, relative to any Obligor or to its creditors, as such, or to its property, and in the event of any proceedings for voluntary liquidation, dissolution or other winding up of such Obligor, whether or not involving insolvency or bankruptcy (other than in connection with, or pursuant to, the Permitted Restructuring), then (x) the holders of Senior Indebtedness shall be paid in full in cash in respect of all amounts constituting Senior Indebtedness before any other Obligor is entitled to receive (whether directly or indirectly), or make any demands for, any payment on account of any Subordinated Intercompany Indebtedness and (y) until the holders of Senior Indebtedness are paid in full in cash in respect of all amounts constituting Senior Indebtedness, any payment or distribution to which such Obligor would otherwise be entitled (other than debt securities of such Obligor that are subordinated, to at least the same extent as this Section 15.01, to the

payment of all Senior Indebtedness then outstanding (such securities being hereinafter referred to in this Section 15.01 as “Restructured Debt Securities”)) shall be made to the holders of Senior Indebtedness.

(c)          Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, each Obligor agrees it shall not make, and shall not be entitled to receive, any payment or distribution of any kind or character with respect to the Subordinated Intercompany Indebtedness except as expressly permitted under this Section 15.01.

(d)          If any payment or distribution of any character by any Obligor, whether in cash, securities or other property (other than Restructured Debt Securities), in respect of any Subordinated Intercompany Indebtedness shall (despite these subordination provisions) be received by any such Obligor in violation of clause (a) or (b) before all Senior Indebtedness shall have been paid in full in cash, such payment or distribution shall be held in trust for the benefit of, and shall be paid over or delivered to the Administrative Agent, as applicable, on behalf of the holders of Obligations, to the extent necessary to pay all Senior Indebtedness in full in cash.

(e)          To the fullest extent permitted by law, no present or future holder of Senior Indebtedness shall be prejudiced in its right to enforce the subordination of this Section 15.01 by any act or failure to act on the part of any such Obligor or by any act or failure to act on the part of such holder or any trustee or agent for such holder.

(f)           This Section 15.01 is intended to constitute and shall be deemed to constitute a “subordination agreement” within the meaning of Section 510(a) of the Bankruptcy Code and is intended and shall be interpreted to be enforceable against the Obligors to the maximum extent permitted pursuant to applicable non-bankruptcy law.  All references to any Obligor shall include such Obligor as debtor and debtor-in-possession and any receiver or trustee for such Obligor in connection with any case under the Bankruptcy Code or in connection with any Insolvency Proceeding.

(g)          Nothing contained in this Section 15.01 is intended to or will impair, as between the Obligors, the obligations of any Obligor, which are absolute and unconditional, to pay to such other Obligor the principal of and interest on the intercompany Indebtedness as and when due and payable in accordance with its terms, or is intended to or will affect the relative rights of such payee and other creditors of such payor other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness.

[FORM OF WARRANT

THIS WARRANT AND THE UNDERLYING SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”), OR UNDER THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE. THESE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED EXCEPT AS PERMITTED UNDER THE ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OR AN EXEMPTION THEREFROM. THE ISSUER OF THESE SECURITIES MAY REQUIRE AN OPINION OF COUNSEL REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE ISSUER THAT SUCH OFFER, SALE, TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR HYPOTHECATION OTHERWISE COMPLIES WITH THE ACT AND ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THIS WARRANT MUST BE SURRENDERED TO THE COMPANY OR ITS TRANSFER AGENT AS A CONDITION PRECEDENT TO THE SALE, TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR HYPOTHECATION OF ANY INTEREST IN ANY OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY.

WARRANT TO PURCHASE ORDINARY SHARES

OF

STRONGBRIDGE BIOPHARMA PLC

Dated as of [__], [__] (the “Issue Date”)

Void after the date specified in Section 8

Warrant to Purchase

[__] Ordinary Shares

(subject to adjustment)

THIS CERTIFIES THAT, for value received, [__], or its registered assigns (the “Holder”), is entitled, subject to the provisions and upon the terms and conditions set forth herein, to purchase from STRONGBRIDGE BIOPHARMA PLC, a public limited company incorporated under the laws of Ireland (the “Company”), that number of shares (the “Shares”) of the Company’s ordinary shares, of nominal value $0.01 per share (the “Ordinary Shares”), at such times and at the price per Share, set forth in Section 1. The term “Warrant” as used herein shall include this Warrant and any warrants delivered in substitution or exchange therefor as provided herein. This Warrant is issued in connection with the transactions described in the Term Loan Agreement, dated as of July 14, 2017, and amended as of January 16, 2018, by and between the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors from time to time party thereto, the Lenders from time to time party thereto and CRG Servicing LLC.

The following is a statement of the rights of the Holder and the conditions to which this Warrant is subject, and to which Holder, by acceptance of this Warrant, agrees:

1. Number and Price of Shares; Exercise Period.

(a) Number of Shares. Subject to any previous exercise of the Warrant, the Holder shall have the right to purchase up to [__] Shares, as may be adjusted pursuant hereto prior to (or in connection with) the expiration of this Warrant as provided in Section 8.

 


 

 

 

CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED UNDER C.F.R. SECTIONS 200.80(b)(4), 200.83 AND 230.406.  [****] INDICATES OMITTED MATERIAL THAT IS THE SUBJECT OF A CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUEST FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE COMMISSION. THE OMITTED MATERIAL HAS BEEN FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE COMMISSION.

 

 

(b) Exercise Price. The exercise price per Share shall be equal to [__], subject to adjustment pursuant hereto (the “Exercise Price”), provided however, the exercise price shall never be less than the nominal value of an Ordinary Share.

(c) Exercise Period. This Warrant shall be exercisable, in whole or in part, prior to (or in connection with) the expiration of this Warrant as set forth in Section 8.

2. Exercise of the Warrant.

(a) Exercise. The purchase rights represented by this Warrant may be exercised at the election of the Holder, in whole or in part, in accordance with Section 1, by:

(i) the tender to the Company at its principal office (or such other office or agency as the Company may designate) of a notice of exercise in the form of Exhibit A (the “Notice of Exercise”), duly completed and executed by or on behalf of the Holder, together with the surrender of this Warrant; and

(ii) the payment to the Company of an amount equal to (x) the Exercise Price multiplied by (y) the number of Shares being purchased, by wire transfer or certified, cashier’s or other check acceptable to the Company and payable to the order of the Company.

(b) Net Issue Exercise. In lieu of exercising this Warrant pursuant to Section 2(a)(ii), if the fair market value of one Share is greater than the Exercise Price (at the date of calculation as set forth below), the Holder may elect to receive a number of Shares, paid-up to their nominal value, equal to the value of this Warrant (or of any portion of this Warrant being canceled) by surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company (or such other office or agency as the Company may designate) together with a properly completed and executed Notice of Exercise reflecting such election and the payment to the Company of an amount equal to (x) the nominal value of a Share multiplied by (y) the number of Shares being purchased (the “Nominal Value Payment Amount”), by wire transfer or certified, cashier’s or other check acceptable to the Company and payable to the order of the Company, in which event the Company shall issue to the Holder that number of Shares computed using the following formula:

X

=

Y (A – B)

A

 

LANDLORDWhere:

X     =            The number of Shares to be issued to the Holder

Y     =            The number of Shares to be purchased (as specified in paragraph 1 of the applicable Notice of Exercise)

A     =            The fair market value of one Ordinary Share (at the date of such calculation)

B     =            The Exercise Price (as adjusted to the date of such calculation) less the nominal value of one Ordinary Share

For purposes of the calculation above, the fair market value of one Share shall be determined as follows:

 


 

 

 

CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED UNDER C.F.R. SECTIONS 200.80(b)(4), 200.83 AND 230.406.  [****] INDICATES OMITTED MATERIAL THAT IS THE SUBJECT OF A CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUEST FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE COMMISSION. THE OMITTED MATERIAL HAS BEEN FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE COMMISSION.

 

 

(i)           if the Ordinary Shares are traded on any securities exchange or quoted on an established automated over-the-counter market, the fair market value shall be deemed to be the average of the closing prices over a ten (10) Trading Day period ending five (5) Trading Days before the date of calculation; or

(ii)          if at any time the Ordinary Shares are not listed on any securities exchange or quoted on an established automated over-the-counter market, the fair market value of Ordinary Shares shall be the price per Ordinary Share which the Company could obtain from a willing buyer (not a current employee or director) for Ordinary Shares sold by the Company, from authorized but unissued Ordinary Shares, as determined in good faith by its Board of Directors, unless the Company shall become subject to a Reorganization, in which case the fair market value of the Ordinary Shares shall be deemed to be the per share value received by the holders of the Company’s Ordinary Shares pursuant to such Reorganization.

For purposes hereof, the date of calculation shall be the date the Holder sends to the Company a Notice of Exercise.  “Trading Day” means a day in which trading in the Ordinary Shares generally occurs on The Nasdaq Global Select Market or if the Ordinary Shares are not then listed on The Nasdaq Global Select Market, on the principal other U.S. national or regional securities exchange on which the Ordinary Shares are then listed, or if the Ordinary Shares are not then listed on a U.S. national or regional securities exchange, on the principal other market on which the Ordinary Shares are then traded.  If the Ordinary Shares are not so listed or traded, “Trading Day” means any Business Day.  “Business Day” means any day other than a Saturday, a Sunday or a day on which the Federal Reserve Bank of New York is authorized or required by law or executive order to close or be closed.

(c) Exercise Prior to Expiration. To the extent this Warrant is not previously exercised as to all Shares subject hereto, and if the fair market value of one Share is greater than the Exercise Price then in effect, this Warrant shall be deemed automatically exercised pursuant to Section 2(b) (even if not surrendered) immediately before its expiration and the Holder shall be deemed to have provided, in connection with such exercise, an undertaking to pay the Nominal Value Payment Amount to the Company in cash on demand.  For purposes of such automatic exercise, the fair market value of one Share upon such expiration shall be determined pursuant to Section 2(b).  To the extent this Warrant or any portion thereof is deemed automatically exercised pursuant to this Section 2(c), the Company agrees to promptly notify the Holder of the number of Shares, if any, the Holder is to receive by reason of such automatic exercise.

(d) Share Certificates. This Warrant shall be deemed to have been exercised and the Shares issuable upon such exercise shall be deemed to have been issued immediately prior to the close of business on the date this Warrant is exercised in accordance with its terms, and the person entitled to receive the Shares issuable upon such exercise shall be treated for all purposes as the holder of record of such Shares as of the close of business on such date. As promptly as reasonably practicable on or after such date, the Company shall issue and deliver to the person or persons entitled to receive the same a certificate or certificates for that number of Shares issuable upon such exercise. In the event that this Warrant is exercised in part and has not expired, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant reflecting the number of Shares that remain subject to this Warrant.

(e) No Fractional Shares or Scrip. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant. In lieu of such fractional share to which the Holder would otherwise be entitled, the Company shall make a cash payment equal to the Exercise Price multiplied by such fraction.

(f) Conditional Exercise. The Holder may exercise this Warrant conditioned upon (and effective immediately prior to) consummation of any transaction that would cause the expiration of this Warrant pursuant to Section 8 by so indicating in the notice of exercise.

(g) Reservation of Shares. The Company agrees during the term this Warrant is exercisable to reserve and keep available from its authorized and unissued Ordinary Shares such number of Ordinary Shares as shall

from time to time be sufficient to effect the exercise of this Warrant; and if at any time the number of authorized but unissued Ordinary Shares shall not be sufficient for purposes of the exercise of this Warrant in accordance with its terms, without limitation of such other remedies as may be available to the Holder, the Company will use all reasonable efforts to take such corporate action as may be necessary to increase its authorized and unissued Ordinary Shares of the Company to a number of Ordinary Shares as shall be sufficient for such purposes. The Company represents and warrants that all Shares that may be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant will, when issued in accordance with the terms hereof, be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

(h) Issued Securities.  The Company represents and warrants to the Holder that all issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares or any other securities of the Company have been duly authorized and validly issued and are fully paid and nonassessable.  All outstanding Ordinary Shares and any other securities were issued in full compliance with all federal and state securities laws.  In addition, as of the date immediately preceding the date of this Warrant:

(i)    A description of the Company’s capitalization attached hereto as Schedule A is true and complete, in all material respects, as of the Issue Date.

(ii)   Except for this Warrant and as otherwise disclosed on Schedule A, there are no other options, warrants, conversion privileges or other rights presently outstanding to purchase or otherwise acquire any authorized but unissued shares of the Company’s share capital or other securities of the Company.

3. Replacement of the Warrant. Subject to the receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, on delivery of an indemnity agreement reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Company or, in the case of mutilation, on surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company at the expense of the Holder shall execute and deliver, in lieu of this Warrant, a new warrant of like tenor and amount.

4. Transfer of the Warrant.

(a) Warrant Register. The Company shall maintain a register (the “Warrant Register”) containing the name and address of the Holder or Holders. Until this Warrant is transferred on the Warrant Register in accordance herewith, the Company may treat the Holder as shown on the Warrant Register as the absolute owner of this Warrant for all purposes, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. Any Holder of this Warrant (or of any portion of this Warrant) may change its address as shown on the Warrant Register by written notice to the Company requesting a change.

(b) Warrant Agent. The Company may appoint an agent for the purpose of maintaining the Warrant Register referred to in Section 4(a), issuing the Shares or other securities then issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant, exchanging this Warrant, replacing this Warrant or conducting related activities.

(c) Transferability of the Warrant. Subject to the provisions of this Warrant with respect to compliance with the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), as set forth in Section 5, title to this Warrant may be transferred by endorsement (by the transferor and the transferee executing the assignment form attached as Exhibit B (the “Assignment Form”)) and delivery in the same manner as a negotiable instrument transferable by endorsement and delivery.

(d) Exchange of the Warrant upon a Transfer. On surrender of this Warrant (and a properly endorsed Assignment Form) for exchange, subject to the provisions of this Warrant with respect to compliance with the Securities Act and limitations on assignments and transfers, the Company shall issue to or on the order of the Holder a new warrant or warrants of like tenor, in the name of the Holder or as the Holder (on payment by the Holder

of any applicable transfer taxes) may direct, for the number of shares issuable upon exercise hereof, and the Company shall register any such transfer upon the Warrant Register. This Warrant (and the securities issuable upon exercise of this Warrant) must be surrendered to the Company or its warrant or transfer agent, as applicable, as a condition precedent to the sale, pledge, hypothecation or other transfer of any interest in any of the securities represented hereby.

 

(e) Taxes. In no event shall the Company be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issue and delivery of any certificate in a name other than that of the Holder, and the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver any such certificate unless and until the person or persons requesting the issue thereof shall have paid to the Company the amount of such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Company that such tax has been paid or is not payable.

 

5. Compliance with Securities Laws. By acceptance of this Warrant, the Holder agrees to comply with the following:

 

(a) Restrictions on Transfers. Any transfer of this Warrant or the Shares (the “Securities”) must be in compliance with all applicable federal and state securities laws. The Holder agrees not to make any sale, assignment, transfer, pledge or other disposition of all or any portion of the Securities, or any beneficial interest therein, unless and until the transferee thereof has agreed in writing for the benefit of the Company to take and hold such Securities subject to, and to be bound by, the terms and conditions set forth in this Warrant to the same extent as if the transferee were the original Holder hereunder, and either:

 

(i) there is then in effect a registration statement under the Securities Act covering such proposed disposition and such disposition is made in accordance with such registration statement, or

 

(ii) (A) such Holder shall have given prior written notice to the Company of such Holder’s intention to make such disposition and shall have furnished the Company with a reasonable detailed description of the manner and circumstances of the proposed disposition, (B) the transferee shall have made the representations set forth in Section 10 with respect to itself as a Holder and (C) if requested by the Company, such Holder shall have furnished the Company, at the Holder’s expense, with (i) evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company that such disposition will not require registration of such Securities under the Securities Act or (ii) a legal opinion to the effect that the transfer of such Securities may be effected in compliance with the terms of the Securities Act.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, compliance with clauses (B) and (C) above shall not be required for any transfer in compliance with Rule 144 and compliance with clause (C) above shall not be required for any transfer by the Holder to any affiliate of the Holder (or any fund or partnership under common control with one of more general partners or managing members of, or shares the same management company with, the Holder) or a transfer by the Holder to any of the Holder’s partners, members or other equity owners, or retired partners, members or other equity owners or the estate of any partners, members or other equity owners or retired partners, members or other equity owners.

 

(b) Investment Representation Statement. Unless this Warrant is exercised pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act that includes the Shares with respect to which the Warrant was exercised or pursuant to Section 2(b) that results in the Shares issued upon exercise being eligible for resale under Rule 144, it shall be a condition to any exercise of this Warrant that the Holder shall have confirmed the representations set forth in Section 10 hereof.

 

(c) Securities Law Legend. Subject to Section 5(e), the Securities shall (unless otherwise permitted by the provisions of this Warrant) be stamped or imprinted with a legend substantially similar to the following (in addition to any legend required by state securities laws):

 

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”), OR UNDER THE SECURITIES LAWS OF

CERTAIN STATES. THESE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED EXCEPT AS PERMITTED UNDER THE ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OR AN EXEMPTION THEREFROM. THE ISSUER OF THESE SECURITIES MAY REQUIRE AN OPINION OF COUNSEL REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE ISSUER THAT SUCH OFFER, SALE OR TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR HYPOTHECATION OTHERWISE COMPLIES WITH THE ACT AND ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THIS CERTIFICATE MUST BE SURRENDERED TO THE COMPANY OR ITS TRANSFER AGENT AS A CONDITION PRECEDENT TO THE SALE, TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR HYPOTHECATION OF ANY INTEREST IN ANY OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY.

 

(d) Instructions Regarding Transfer Restrictions. Subject to Section 5(e), the Holder consents to the Company making a notation on its records and giving instructions to any transfer agent in order to implement the restrictions on transfer established in this Section 5.

 

(e) Removal of Legend. The legend referring to federal and state securities laws identified in Section 5(c) stamped on a certificate evidencing the Shares and the transfer instructions and record notations with respect to the Securities shall be removed promptly upon request by the Holder and the Company shall issue a certificate without such legend to the holder of such Securities if (i) such Securities are registered under the Securities Act, (ii) such securities are eligible for resale under Rule 144, or (iii) such holder provides the Company with an opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to the Company to the effect that a sale or transfer of such securities may be made without registration or qualification.

 

(f) Compliance with Securities Laws. The Holder is aware of the restrictions imposed by the United States securities laws on the purchase or sale of securities by any person who has received material, non-public information from the issuer of such securities and on the communication of such information to any other person when it is reasonably foreseeable that such other person is likely to purchase or sell such securities in reliance upon such information.

 

6. Adjustments. Subject to the expiration of this Warrant pursuant to Section 8, the number and kind of shares purchasable hereunder and the Exercise Price therefor are subject to adjustment from time to time, as follows:

 

(a) Merger or Reorganization. If at any time there shall be any reorganization, recapitalization, merger or consolidation (a “Reorganization”) involving the Company (other than as otherwise provided for herein or as would cause the expiration of this Warrant under Section 8) in which Ordinary Shares of the Company are converted into or exchanged for securities, cash or other property, then, as a part of such Reorganization, lawful provision shall be made so that the Holder shall thereafter be entitled to receive upon exercise of this Warrant, the kind and amount of securities, cash or other property of the successor corporation resulting from such Reorganization (collectively, “Reference Property”), equivalent in value to that which a holder of the Shares deliverable upon exercise of this Warrant would have been entitled to receive in such Reorganization if the right to purchase the Shares hereunder had been exercised immediately prior to such Reorganization. In any such case, appropriate adjustment (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the successor corporation) shall be made in the application of the provisions of this Warrant with respect to the rights and interests of the Holder after such Reorganization to the end that the provisions of this Warrant shall be applicable after the event, as near as reasonably may be, in relation to any shares or other securities deliverable after that event upon the exercise of this Warrant. Without limiting the foregoing, in connection with any Reorganization, upon the closing thereof, the successor or surviving entity shall assume the obligations of this Agreement.  The provisions of this Section 6(a) shall similarly apply to successive Reorganizations.

or otherwise (other than as otherwise provided for herein) (a “Reclassification”), then, in any such event, in lieu of the number of Shares which the Holder would otherwise have been entitled to receive, the Holder shall have the right thereafter to exercise this Warrant for a number of Shares of such other class or classes of shares that a holder of the number of securities deliverable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately before that change would have been entitled to receive in such Reclassification, all subject to further adjustment as provided herein with respect to such other shares.

 

(c) Subdivisions and Combinations. In the event that the outstanding Ordinary Shares are subdivided (by shares split, by payment of a shares dividend or otherwise) into a greater number of Ordinary Shares, the number of Shares issuable upon exercise of the this Warrant immediately prior to such subdivision shall, concurrently with the effectiveness of such subdivision, be proportionately increased, and the Exercise Price shall be proportionately decreased, and in the event that the outstanding Ordinary Shares are combined (by reclassification or otherwise) into a lesser number of Ordinary Shares, the number of Shares issuable upon exercise of the this Warrant immediately prior to such combination shall, concurrently with the effectiveness of such combination, be proportionately decreased, and the Exercise Price shall be proportionately increased.

 

(d) Notice of Adjustments. Upon any adjustment in accordance with this Section 6, the Company shall give notice thereof to the Holder, which notice shall state the event giving rise to the adjustment, the Exercise Price as adjusted and the number of securities or other property purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant, setting forth in reasonable detail the method of calculation of each. The Company shall, upon the written request of any Holder, furnish or cause to be furnished to such Holder a certificate setting forth (i) such adjustments, (ii) the Exercise Price at the time in effect and (iii) the number of securities and the amount, if any, of other property that at the time would be received upon exercise of this Warrant.

(c) any transaction resulting in the expiration of this Warrant pursuant to Section 8(b);

 

the Company shall send to the Holder of this Warrant at least ten (10) calendar days prior written notice of the date on which a record shall be taken for any such dividend or distribution specified in clause (a) or the expected effective date of any such other event specified in clause (b) or (c), as applicable. The notice provisions set forth in this section may be shortened or waived prospectively or retrospectively by the consent of the Holder of this Warrant.

(b) (i) the acquisition of the Company by another entity by means of any transaction or series of related transactions to which the Company is a party (including, without limitation, any share acquisition, reorganization, merger or consolidation, but excluding any sale of shares for capital raising purposes and any transaction effected primarily for purposes of changing the Company’s jurisdiction of incorporation) other than a transaction or series of related transactions in which the holders of the voting securities of the Company outstanding immediately prior to such transaction or series of related transactions receive voting securities of such other surviving or resulting entity (or if the Company or such other surviving or resulting entity is a wholly-owned subsidiary immediately following such acquisition, its parent), or (ii) a sale, lease or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries taken as a whole by means of any transaction or series of related transactions, except where such sale, lease or other disposition is to a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company; provided that the holders of Shares in the transaction described in (i) or (ii) above receive cash or cash equivalents in such transaction with an aggregate value per Ordinary Share greater than two times the Exercise Price.

 

9. No Rights as a Shareholder. Nothing contained herein shall entitle the Holder to any rights as a shareholder of the Company or to be deemed the holder of any securities that may at any time be issuable on the exercise of the rights hereunder for any purpose nor shall anything contained herein be construed to confer upon the Holder, as such, any right to vote for the election of directors or upon any matter submitted to shareholders at any meeting thereof, or to give or withhold consent to any corporate action (whether upon any recapitalization, issuance of shares, reclassification of shares, change of nominal value or change of shares to no nominal value, consolidation, merger, conveyance or otherwise) or to receive notice of meetings, or to receive dividends or subscription rights or any other rights of a shareholder of the Company until this Warrant shall have been exercised.

 

10. Representations and Warranties of the Holder. By acceptance of this Warrant, the Holder represents and warrants to the Company as follows:

 

(a) No Registration. The Holder understands that the Securities have not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act by reason of a specific exemption from the registration provisions of the Securities Act, the availability of which depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of the investment intent and the accuracy of the Holder’s representations as expressed herein or otherwise made pursuant hereto.

 

(b) Investment Intent. The Holder is acquiring the Securities for investment for its own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any distribution thereof. The Holder has no present intention of selling, granting any participation in, or otherwise distributing the Securities, nor does it have any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement for the same.

 

(c) Investment Experience. The Holder has substantial experience in evaluating and investing in private placement transactions of securities in companies similar to the Company, and has such knowledge and experience in financial or business matters so that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of its investment in the Company and protecting its own interests.

 

(d) Speculative Nature of Investment. The Holder understands and acknowledges that its investment in the Company is highly speculative and involves substantial risks. The Holder can bear the economic risk of its investment and is able, without impairing its financial condition, to hold the Securities for an indefinite period of time and to suffer a complete loss of its investment.

 

(e) Accredited Investor. The Holder is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Regulation D, Rule 501(a), promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission and agrees to submit to the Company such further assurances of such status as may be reasonably requested by the Company. The Holder has furnished or made available any and all information requested by the Company or otherwise necessary to satisfy any applicable verification requirements as to “accredited investor” status. Any such information is true, correct, timely and complete.

(f) Residency. The residency of the Holder (or, in the case of a partnership or corporation, such entity’s principal place of business) is correctly set forth on the signature page hereto.

 

(g) Restrictions on Resales. The Holder acknowledges that the Securities must be held indefinitely unless subsequently registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is available. The Holder is aware of the provisions of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, which permit resale of shares purchased in a private placement subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, which may include, among other things, the availability of certain current public information about the Company; the resale occurring not less than a specified period after a party has purchased and paid for the security to be sold; the number of shares being sold during any three-month period not exceeding specified limitations; the sale being effected through a “broker’s transaction,” a transaction directly with a “market maker” or a “riskless principal transaction” (as those terms are defined in the Securities Act or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder); and the filing of a Form 144 notice, if applicable. The Holder acknowledges and understands that the Company may not be satisfying the current public information requirement of Rule 144 at the time the Holder wishes to sell the Securities and that, in such event, the Holder may be precluded from selling the Securities under Rule 144 even if the other applicable requirements of Rule 144 have been satisfied. The Holder acknowledges that, in the event the applicable requirements of Rule 144 are not met, registration under the Securities Act or an exemption from registration will be required for any disposition of the Securities. The Holder understands that, although Rule 144 is not exclusive, the Securities and Exchange Commission has expressed its opinion that persons proposing to sell restricted securities received in a private offering other than in a registered offering or pursuant to Rule 144 will have a substantial burden of proof in establishing that an exemption from registration is available for such offers or sales and that such persons and the brokers who participate in the transactions do so at their own risk.

 

11. Miscellaneous.

 

(a) Amendments. Except as expressly provided herein, neither this Warrant nor any term hereof may be amended, waived, discharged or terminated other than by a written instrument referencing this Warrant and signed by the Company and the Holder of this Warrant.

 

(b) Waivers. No waiver of any single breach or default shall be deemed a waiver of any other breach or default theretofore or thereafter occurring.

 

(c) Notices. All notices and other communications required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and shall be mailed by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, sent by facsimile or electronic mail (if to the Holder) or otherwise delivered by hand, messenger or courier service addressed:

 

(i) if to the Holder, to the Holder at the Holder’s address, facsimile number or electronic mail address as show on the signature page hereto, or at such other current address as the Holder shall have furnished to the Company; or

 

(ii) if to the Company, to the attention of the Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer of the Company at the Company’s address, facsimile number or electronic mail address as shown on the signature page hereto, or at such other current address as the Company shall have furnished to the Holder.

 

Each such notice or other communication shall for all purposes of this Warrant be treated as effective or having been given (i) if delivered by hand, messenger or courier service, when delivered (or if sent via a nationally-recognized overnight courier service, freight prepaid, specifying next-business-day delivery, one business day after deposit with the courier), or (ii) if sent via mail, at the earlier of its receipt or five days after the same has been deposited in a regularly-maintained receptacle for the deposit of the United States mail, addressed and mailed as

aforesaid, or (iii) if sent via facsimile, upon confirmation of facsimile transfer or, if sent via electronic mail, upon confirmation of delivery when directed to the relevant electronic mail address, if sent during normal business hours of the recipient, or if not sent during normal business hours of the recipient, then on the recipient’s next business day. In the event of any conflict between the Company’s books and records and this Warrant or any notice delivered hereunder, the Company’s books and records will control absent fraud or error.

(e) Jurisdiction and Venue.  The Company agrees that any suit, action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement or any other Loan Document to which it is a party or any judgment entered by any court in respect thereof may be brought initially in the federal or state courts in Houston, Texas or in the courts of its own corporate domicile and irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of each such court for the purpose of any such suit, action, proceeding or judgment. This Section 13.10(a) is for the benefit of the Holder only and, as a result, Holder shall not be prevented from taking proceedings in any other courts with jurisdiction. Nothing herein shall in any way be deemed to limit the ability of the Holder to serve any such process or summonses in any other manner permitted by applicable law. The Company irrevocably waives to the fullest extent permitted by law any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Warrant and hereby further irrevocably waives to the fullest extent permitted by law any claim that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. A final judgment (in respect of which time for all appeals has elapsed) in any such suit, action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in any court to the jurisdiction of which the Company is or may be subject, by suit upon judgment.

(f) Titles and Subtitles. The titles and subtitles used in this Warrant are used for convenience only and are not to be considered in construing or interpreting this Warrant. All references in this Warrant to sections, paragraphs and exhibits shall, unless otherwise provided, refer to sections and paragraphs hereof and exhibits attached hereto.

 

(g) Severability. If any provision of this Warrant becomes or is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, unenforceable or void, portions of such provision, or such provision in its entirety, to the extent necessary, shall be severed from this Warrant, and such illegal, unenforceable or void provision shall be replaced with a valid and enforceable provision that will achieve, to the extent possible, the same economic, business and other purposes of the illegal, unenforceable or void provision. The balance of this Warrant shall be enforceable in accordance with its terms.

 

(h) Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH OF THE HOLDER AND THE COMPANY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS WARRANT.

 

(i) California Corporate Securities Law. THE SALE OF THE SECURITIES THAT ARE THE SUBJECT OF THIS WARRANT HAS NOT BEEN QUALIFIED WITH THE COMMISSIONER OF CORPORATIONS OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA AND THE ISSUANCE OF SUCH SECURITIES OR THE PAYMENT OR RECEIPT OF ANY PART OF THE CONSIDERATION THEREFOR PRIOR TO SUCH QUALIFICATION IS UNLAWFUL, UNLESS THE SALE OF SECURITIES IS EXEMPT FROM QUALIFICATION BY SECTION 25100, 25102, OR 25105 OF THE CALIFORNIA CORPORATIONS CODE. THE RIGHTS OF ALL PARTIES TO THIS WARRANT ARE EXPRESSLY CONDITIONED UPON THE QUALIFICATION BEING OBTAINED, UNLESS THE SALE IS SO EXEMPT.
