ARTICLE II

TRANSFER OF COMPANY SHARES; PAYMENT PROCEDURES

Section 2.1 Transfer of Company Shares. At the Effective Time, the Company Shares then outstanding shall be transferred from the Scheme Shareholders in accordance with the provisions of the Scheme of Arrangement, this Section 2.1 and Section 2.2, and the Scheme Shareholders shall cease to have any rights with respect to the Company Shares except their rights under the Scheme of Arrangement, including the right to receive, in exchange for each Company Share, the Per Share Consideration. At the Effective Time, or as promptly as reasonably practicable thereafter but on the day of the occurrence of the Effective Time, the Company’s Register of Members will be updated in accordance with the provisions of the Scheme of Arrangement to reflect the transfer of the Company Shares under the Scheme of Arrangement to the Buyer (or an Affiliate of the Buyer designated by the Buyer prior to the filing of the Scheme of Arrangement with the Court), following which the Company shall be a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Buyer or such Affiliate of the Buyer.

Section 2.2 Payment Procedures.

(a) Settlement via the Paying Agent.

(i) Prior to the Closing, the Buyer shall (A) select an internationally recognized bank or trust company reasonably acceptable to the Company to act as paying agent for the payment of the Aggregate Consideration (the “Paying Agent”) and (B) enter into an agreement (such agreement, the “Paying Agent Agreement”), in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Company, with the Paying Agent. The Buyer shall pay all costs, fees and expenses incurred in connection with the retention and engagement of the Paying Agent. On the Closing Date, substantially concurrently with the Effective Time, the Buyer shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, with the Paying Agent, for the benefit of the Scheme Shareholders, cash in an amount equal to the Aggregate Consideration to which the Scheme Shareholders are entitled pursuant to Section 1.1. All cash deposited with the Paying Agent pursuant to the preceding sentence shall hereinafter be referred to as the “Payment Fund.”

(ii) As promptly as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time, and in any event within three (3) Business Days after the Effective Time, the Buyer shall direct the Paying Agent to mail to each holder of record of a certificate or certificates which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented outstanding Company Shares (the “Certificates”) or non-certificated Company Shares represented by book-entry (the “Book-Entry Shares”) that is entitled to receive the Per Share Consideration pursuant to Section 1.1 a letter of transmittal, which shall be in such form and have such other provisions as the Buyer and the Paying Agent may reasonably specify. The Paying Agent Agreement shall require that each holder of Company Shares that have been converted into the right to receive the Per Share Consideration shall be entitled to receive the Per Share Consideration (less any required deductions as provided in Section 2.4) in respect of each of the Company Shares represented by a Certificate, within two (2) Business Days upon delivery to the Paying Agent of a duly completed and validly executed letter of transmittal, or receipt of an “agent’s message” by the Paying Agent (or such other evidence, if any, of transfer as the Paying Agent may reasonably request) in the case of Book-Entry Shares, and, in each case, delivery to the Paying Agent of such other documents as may be reasonably requested by the Paying Agent. The Paying Agent shall accept such letters of transmittal, “agent’s message” with respect to Book-Entry Shares or other documents upon compliance with such reasonable terms and conditions as the Paying Agent may impose to effect orderly payments of the Per Share Consideration in accordance with normal exchange practices. Payment of the Per Share Consideration with respect to Book-Entry Shares shall only be made to the person in whose name such Book-Entry Shares are registered. Each Certificate and Book-Entry Share shall be deemed at any time after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive the Per Share Consideration as contemplated by this Article II, without interest thereon. Any portion of the Payment Fund which has not been transferred to the holders of Company Shares within twelve (12) months of the Effective Time shall be delivered to the Buyer or its designee(s) promptly upon request by the Buyer, it being understood that no such delivery shall affect any legal right that a Scheme Shareholder may have to receive the Per Share Consideration pursuant to Section 1.1. None of the Buyer, the Company or the Paying Agent or any of their respective Affiliates or Representatives or agents shall be liable to any Person in respect of any Per Share Consideration (or dividends or distributions with respect thereto) from the Payment Fund delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law.

2

(b) At the Effective Time, the share transfer books of the Company shall be closed and thereafter (other than to record the transfer of Company Shares to the Buyer or its designate in accordance with this Agreement) there shall be no further registration of transfers of Company Shares on the records of the Company. From and after the Effective Time, the holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall cease to have any rights with respect to Company Shares formerly represented thereby except as otherwise provided for herein or by applicable Law. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates or Book-Entry Shares are presented to the Buyer, the Company or the Paying Agent for any reason, they shall be cancelled and converted as provided in this Agreement.

(c) In the event that any Certificates shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, the Paying Agent shall issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificates, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the holder thereof (such affidavit to be in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Buyer and the Paying Agent), the Per Share Consideration payable in respect thereof pursuant to Section 1.1; provided, however, that Buyer may, in its discretion and as a condition precedent to the issuance thereof, require the owner of such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate to deliver a bond in such reasonable and customary amount as the Buyer may direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against the Buyer and their respective Subsidiaries or the Paying Agent with respect to the Certificate alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed.

Each Modified Unvested Award shall remain subject to the same vesting terms and conditions that applied to the corresponding Company RSU immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than performance-vesting conditions) and shall become payable to the holder thereof in accordance with the original vesting schedule applicable to the corresponding Company RSU (including, without limitation any applicable accelerated vesting provisions), without interest and less any applicable Taxes and other applicable deductions consistent with past practice.

3

(c) From and after the Effective Time, such holders of Company RSUs shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, other than the right to receive the Company Incentive Consideration in accordance with this Section 2.3. Except as otherwise agreed between the Parties, at or as soon as reasonably practicable following the Effective Time, the Company or the applicable Company Subsidiary shall satisfy through its payroll systems or standard accounts payable procedures, as applicable, all amounts in respect of the Company Incentive Consideration payable pursuant to Section 2.3(a) to the applicable recipients thereof no later than the first payroll date to occur at least ten (10) Business Days following the Effective Time. All amounts required to be paid to holders of Company RSUs pursuant to Section 2.3(a) shall be less any applicable withholding Taxes and other applicable deductions.

(b) No Taxes shall be deducted or withheld under the IT Act from the Per Share Consideration paid or payable to any Small Shareholder or Indian Resident Shareholder pursuant to this Agreement so long as such Small Shareholder or Indian Resident Shareholder furnishes a self-declaration to the Buyer (which for the purpose of Scheme Shareholders who are required to furnish the letter of transmittal referred to in Section 2.2(a)(ii), shall be included in such letter of transmittal) and in such form as shall be agreed between the Buyer and the Company confirming such Small Shareholder or Indian Resident Shareholder’s status as such.

(c) Subject to Section 2.4(b), each of the Buyer, the Company, any of their respective Affiliates, and any other Person remitting funds, as applicable, shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any consideration or other amount otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement or the Scheme of Arrangement such amounts, if any, as it is required to be deducted and withheld under applicable Law as may be reasonably determined by the Buyer, the Company, any of their respective Affiliates or any other Person remitting the funds, as applicable. Any amounts that are so deducted or withheld shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made, provided however, that prior to withholding any amounts pursuant to this Section 2.4, the Buyer shall take into account all information, declarations, claims for treaty benefits, and documentation furnished by a Scheme Shareholder (to the reasonable satisfaction of the Buyer) in determining Taxes, if any, that are required to be deducted and withheld from the Per Share Consideration payable to such Scheme Shareholder. Provided further that in a case of a Small Shareholder or Indian Resident Shareholder who does not furnish a self-declaration as provided for in Section 2.4(b), the Buyer may exercise its discretion, acting reasonably, to withhold Taxes, if any, that are deductible in accordance with the IT Act from the Per Share Consideration payable to such Small Shareholder or Indian Resident Shareholder.

(d) For the avoidance of doubt, if the Buyer does not receive from a Specific Shareholder all such relevant information, declarations, and documentation as may be necessary in determining Taxes, if any, that are required to be deducted and withheld from the Per Share Consideration payable to such Specific Shareholder, the Buyer shall compute and withhold the Taxes in accordance with the IT Act (as may be determined by the Buyer acting reasonably and based on the information available with the Buyer) from the Per Share Consideration payable to such Specific Shareholder.

4

(e) If any deductions or withholdings are required by applicable Law, the Buyer shall timely remit such amount to the relevant Governmental Entity and undertake applicable compliances (including filing of withholding tax return and issuance of a valid withholding tax certificate issued in Form 16A under (Indian) Income Tax Rules, 1962 confirming the deduction and deposit of Taxes withheld under the IT Act).

(f) The Company shall reasonably co-operate with the Buyer to facilitate communications with the Scheme Shareholders in respect of the information documentation and declarations as set out in Sections 2.4(b) and 2.4(d) above.

(e) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary:

(i) the Company Board of Directors may, after consultation with, and based upon the advice of, its outside legal counsel (of internationally recognized reputation and experienced in transactions of this nature, including ▇▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ LLP), (A) make such limited disclosures as the Company Board of Directors reasonably determines in good faith are necessary to comply with Rule 14d-9, Rule 14e-2(a) or Item 1012(a) of Regulation M-A promulgated under the Exchange Act, (B) make any “stop, look and listen” communication pursuant to Rule 14d-9(f) under the Exchange Act and (C) make any other disclosure that it determines in good faith is required by applicable Law; provided, however, that that any such communication or disclosure shall include an express reaffirmation of the Company Board Recommendation and that, if such disclosure or communication does not reaffirm the Company Board Recommendation or has the effect of withdrawing or adversely modifying the Company Board Recommendation, such disclosure or communication shall be deemed to be a Company Change of Recommendation, then the Buyer shall have the right to terminate this Agreement as set forth in Section 8.1(c)(ii);

(ii) prior to, but not after, the receipt of the Company Shareholder Approval, if and subject in all cases to the Company complying with its obligations under this Section 5.2, (A) the Company receives a bona fide, written Company Competing Proposal from any Company Third Party that was not solicited in breach of this Section 5.2(b), and (B) the Company Board of Directors determines in good faith, based on the information then available, including the terms and conditions of such Company Competing Proposal and those of this Agreement, and after consultation with, and based on the advice of the Company’s financial advisors and outside legal counsel (in each case, of internationally recognized reputation and experienced in transactions of this nature, including ▇▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ LLP), that such Company Competing Proposal constitutes or would be reasonably expected to result in a Company Superior Proposal, and that failure to take the following actions would cause a breach of the statutory or fiduciary duties of the Company Board of Directors, then the Company may (1) discuss, negotiate, execute and enter into an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement with such Company Third Party, and (2) so long as it has entered into an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement with such Company Third Party, (i) furnish information with respect to the Company and Company Subsidiaries to such Company Third Party and its Representatives and financing sources and (ii) engage in, respond to, enter into, maintain or participate in discussions and negotiations with the Company Third Party making such a Company Competing Proposal and its Representatives (provided that, any such non-public information shall have previously been made available to, or is made available to the Buyer prior to or concurrently with (or in the case of oral non-public information only, promptly (and in any event within twenty-four (24) hours) after)) the time such information is made available to such Company Third Party and the Company shall provide to the Buyer unredacted copies of all writings or media containing any material terms or conditions of any proposals or proposed transaction agreements relating to any Company Competing Proposal as promptly as practicable (and in any event, within twenty-four (24) hours) following the receipt or delivery thereof;

32

(iii) prior to, but not after, the receipt of the Company Shareholder Approval, the Company Board of Directors shall be permitted, through its Representatives or directly, to seek clarification from (but not, unless otherwise allowed pursuant to this Agreement, to provide any non-public information to) any Company Third Party that has made a Company Competing Proposal solely to clarify the terms and conditions of such proposal to provide adequate information for the Company Board of Directors to make an informed determination under Section 5.2(e)(ii);

(iv) prior to, but not after, the receipt of the Company Shareholder Approval, in response to a bona fide, written Company Competing Proposal from a Company Third Party that was not solicited in breach of, and did not otherwise arise from a breach of, the obligations set forth in this Section 5.2, if the Company Board of Directors so chooses, the Company Board of Directors may (x) effect a Company Change of Recommendation or (y) authorize the entry into a Company Alternative Acquisition Agreement and terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(d)(ii); provided, however, that no such action may be taken unless and until:

(1) the Company Board of Directors determines in good faith after consultation with, and based on the advice of, its financial advisors and outside legal counsel (in each case, of internationally recognized reputation and experienced in transactions of this nature, including ▇▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ LLP) that such Company Competing Proposal constitutes a Company Superior Proposal;

(2) the Company Board of Directors determines in good faith, after consultation with, and based on the advice of, its financial advisors and outside legal counsel in each case, of internationally recognized reputation and experienced in transactions of this nature, including ▇▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ LLP that failure to effect a Company Change of Recommendation in response to such Company Superior Proposal would be a breach of the statutory or fiduciary duties of the Company Board of Directors under the Laws of Jersey;

(3) the Company provides the Buyer written notice of such proposed action and the basis thereof at least four (4) Business Days in advance, which notice shall set forth in writing that the Company Board of Directors intends to consider whether to take such action and include all material terms and conditions of the Company Competing Proposal;

(4) after giving such notice and prior to effecting such Company Change of Recommendation, to the extent so requested by the Buyer, the Company shall make itself available to negotiate (and cause its officers, employees, financial advisor and outside legal counsel to be available to negotiate) in good faith with the Buyer to make such adjustments or revisions to the terms of this Agreement as would permit the Company Board of Directors to determine that failure to make a Company Change of Recommendation in response to such Company Competing Proposal would no longer be expected to constitute a breach of the Company Board of Directors’ statutory or fiduciary duties under the Laws of Jersey or that such Company Competing Proposal would cease to constitute a Company Superior Proposal; and

(5) at the end of such four (4) Business Day period, prior to taking action to effect a Company Change of Recommendation, the Company Board of Directors takes into account any adjustments or revisions to the terms of this Agreement proposed to by the Buyer in writing, and any other information offered by the Buyer in response to the notice, and determines in good faith, after consultation with, and based on the advice of, its financial advisors and outside legal counsel (in each case, of internationally recognized reputation and experienced in transactions of this nature, including ▇▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ LLP), that the Company Competing Proposal remains a Company Superior Proposal and that failure to (x) effect a Company Change of Recommendation in response to such Company Superior Proposal or (y) authorize the entry into a Company Alternative Acquisition Agreement and terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(d)(ii), in either case, would breach the statutory or fiduciary duties of the Company Board of Directors under the Laws of Jersey; provided that, in the event of any material amendment or material modification to any Company Superior Proposal (it being understood that any amendment or modification to the economic terms of any such Company Superior Proposal shall be deemed material), the Company shall be required to deliver a new written notice to the Buyer and to comply with the requirements of this Section 5.2(e)(iii) with respect to such new written notice, except that the advance written notice obligation set forth in this Section 5.2(e)(iii) shall be reduced to two (2) Business Days; provided, further, that any such new written notice shall in no event shorten the original four (4) Business Day notice period.

33

(f) The Company shall not (and it shall cause its Subsidiaries not to) terminate, amend, modify or waive any provision of, or release any Person from, any confidentiality (solely to the extent entered into in connection with a Company Competing Proposal), “standstill” or similar agreement to which it or any of its Subsidiaries is a party, and the Company shall, or shall cause its applicable Subsidiary or Subsidiaries to, enforce the confidentiality, “standstill” or similar provisions of any such agreement.

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5.2, any action, or failure to take action, that is taken by any Representative of the Company acting at the Company’s direction or on its behalf, in each case, in violation of this Section 5.2, shall be deemed to be a breach of this Section 5.2 by the Company.

The Buyer shall indemnify and hold harmless, the Company, the Company Subsidiaries, and their respective directors, officers, managers, employees and representatives, from and against any and all liabilities or losses suffered or incurred by them in connection with the arrangement of any Debt Financing and any information in connection therewith, except to the extent resulting from the gross negligence, fraud or willful misconduct of the Company or any of its Affiliates or representatives, arising from incorrect or misleading information provided by the Company or any of its Affiliates, or to the extent that the indemnity relates to matters with respect to which the Buyer is entitled to indemnity hereunder.

(g) Financing Not a Condition. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any breach of or non-compliance with this Section 6.10 by the Company, any of the Company Subsidiaries, any of its Affiliates or their Representatives shall not be taken into account in determining whether the conditions to the consummation of the Transactions contemplated by this Agreement set forth in Article VII have been satisfied, except for any intentional and material breach that remains uncured after notice from the Buyer for at least a period of five (5) Business Days which may be taken into account in determining whether the conditions to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement set forth in Article VII have been satisfied.

(a) Subject to Section 6.11(b) below, and for any Company Credit Agreements that are not Repaid Indebtedness subject to the delivery of a Payoff Letter in accordance with Section 6.10(e) (“Continued Credit Agreements” and such Indebtedness thereunder being “Continued Indebtedness”), the Company shall (and shall cause the Company Subsidiaries to) use reasonable best efforts to ensure the Transaction will satisfy the requirements of a permitted change of control under the Continued Credit Agreements, including obtaining any consent, amendment, modification or waiver under the Continued Credit Agreements in order to permit the Transaction thereunder. Any such consent, amendment, modification or waiver under the Continued Credit Agreements shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Buyer.

(b) Neither the Company nor any of the Company Subsidiaries shall permit any amendment, restatement, replacement, supplement or modification to be made to, or any waiver of any material terms or provisions that could hinder or delay the Closing of the Continued Credit Agreements (including any increases to the amounts outstanding under such Continued Credit Agreements that would be in violation of Section 5.1(b)(xii)) or that would prevent, delay or otherwise frustrate the consummation of the Transaction, without the Buyer’s prior written consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld. The Company shall give the Buyer prompt notice of any amendment, restatement, replacement, supplement or modification to be made to, or any waiver of, any provision under the Continued Credit Agreements. The Company shall, and shall cause the Company Subsidiaries and its and their respective officers, employees, advisors and other representatives to, use its reasonable best efforts to maintain in full force and effect the Continued Credit Agreements, including, but not limited to, taking all actions necessary, proper or advisable thereunder to maintain in full force and effect the Continued Credit Agreements. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company shall promptly, and in any event within two (2) Business Days following the occurrence thereof, notify the Buyer in writing if at any time prior to the Closing, (i) any of the Continued Credit Agreements are terminated or accelerated for any reason, (ii) the Company, any of the Company Subsidiaries, or, to the knowledge of the Company, any other Person party to the Continued Credit Agreements defaults or breaches any of the terms or conditions set forth in the Continued Credit Agreements, (iii) a Default (as defined in the Continued Credit Agreements) or Event of Default (as defined in the Continued Credit Agreements) occurs, (iv) the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries has a reasonable expectation that a Default or Event of Default will occur under any of the Continued Credit Agreements, or (v) the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries knows or has a reasonable expectation that a Change of Control will not be permitted under any of the Continued Credit Agreements. The Company shall, and shall cause the Company Subsidiaries to, at all times on and after the date hereof, take such actions (or omit to take actions, as applicable) as are within their respective control to ensure that no Default or Event of Default occurs under any of the Continued Credit Agreements.

48

(c) On and after the date hereof, the Company shall keep the Buyer reasonably informed, as requested in writing by the Buyer from time to time, as to the status of any obtaining any consent, amendment, modification or waiver under the Continued Credit Agreements as described in Section 6.11(a).

(d) The Buyer shall, promptly upon written request by the Company, reimburse each of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries, as applicable, for all reasonable and reasonably documented out-of-pocket third-party costs and expenses incurred by it in connection with obtaining any consent, amendment, modification or waiver under the Continued Credit Agreements in order to permit the Transaction to constitute a permitted Change of Control.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any breach or non-compliance with this Section 6.11 by the Company, any of the Company Subsidiaries, any of its Affiliates or their Representatives shall not be taken into account in determining whether the conditions to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement set forth in Article VII have been satisfied, except for any intentional and material breach that remains uncured after notice from the Buyer for at least a period of five (5) Business Days, which may be taken into account in determining whether the conditions to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement set forth in Article VII have been satisfied.

Section 6.12 Scheme Implementation by Way of Offer.

(a) If, prior to a Scheme Meeting, a takeover offer (under Article 116 of the Companies Law) is made by any Person not affiliated with Buyer or its Affiliates, the Buyer may elect, with the prior written approval of the Company (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), to effect the Transaction by way of a contractual takeover offer (which, for the avoidance of doubt, would be made in respect of all Company Shares) (the “Offer”), whether or not the Scheme Document has been published; provided that the Offer is made in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement (with any additions, deletions, modifications or amendments to such terms and conditions as may be necessary solely as a result of a switch from the Scheme of Arrangement to the Offer) and provided that the Buyer shall comply with Section 6.12(b) to Section 6.12(d). If the Buyer elects to implement the Transaction by way of an Offer in accordance with this Section 6.12(a), Section 5.2(g) (only with respect to the Scheme Document) shall cease to have any effect (but without prejudice to the Parties’ obligations to take any relevant actions in accordance with this Agreement to approve or implement the Offer), and the terms and conditions set out in this Agreement shall be deemed to be modified or amended in so far as is necessary as a result of the switch from the Scheme of Arrangement to the Offer.

(b) In the event that the Transaction is implemented by way of an Offer pursuant to and in accordance with Section 6.12(a), the Buyer shall prepare the document to be dispatched to (among others) the Company Shareholders under which any Offer would be made (the “Offer Document”) and shall consult with the Company in relation to the preparation thereof. The Buyer agrees to submit, or cause the submission of, drafts and revised drafts of the Offer Document to the Company for review and comment and, where necessary, to discuss any reasonable comments with the Company for the purposes of preparing revised drafts. The Buyer shall provide the Company reasonably sufficient time to consider the drafts and revised drafts of the Offer Document and include in the Offer Document all comments reasonably proposed by the Company.

(c) The Company shall afford all such cooperation and assistance as may reasonably be requested of it by the Buyer in respect of the preparation and verification of any document required for the implementation of the Offer, including the provision to the Buyer of such information and confirmations relating to it, its Subsidiaries and any of its or their respective directors or employees as the Buyer may reasonably request (including for the purposes of preparing the Offer Document and any amendments or supplements to either the Offer Document) and to do so in a timely manner. The Company shall review and provide comments (if any) in a reasonably timely manner on all such documentation submitted to it.

(d) If the Transaction is implemented by way of an Offer pursuant to and in accordance with Section 6.12(a):

(i) the acceptance condition to the Offer shall be set at 90% (or such lesser percentage as the Company and the Buyer may agree) of the Company Ordinary Shares to which the Offer relates;

49

(ii) the Buyer shall ensure that, unless the Parties agree otherwise in writing, the only conditions of the Offer shall be those set out in Article VII (the “Conditions,” and “Condition” means any one of the Conditions) (with (i) the condition set forth in Section 7.1(a), Section 7.1(b) and Section 7.1(c) replaced with the acceptance condition specified in Section 6.12(d)(i) and (ii) any other additions, deletions, modifications or amendments to such conditions as the Parties agree are reasonably necessary or desirable as a result of a switch from the Scheme of Arrangement to the Offer);

(iii) The Buyer shall keep the Company reasonably informed, on a regular basis and in any event as promptly as reasonably practicable following a request by the Company or its Representatives, of the number of Company Shareholders that have validly returned their acceptance or withdrawal forms or incorrectly completed their acceptance or withdrawal forms and the identity of such shareholders;

(iv) except where the Company Board of Directors has effected a Company Change of Recommendation pursuant to and in accordance with Section 5.2(e)(iii), (i) the Company Board of Directors shall duly and validly adopt a resolution declaring that the Company Board of Directors has resolved that it will recommend that the Company Shareholders accept the Offer and such recommendation shall be deemed to be the Company Board Recommendation; (ii) the Company agrees that the Company Board Recommendation shall be included in the Offer Document; and (iii) neither the Company Board of Directors nor any committee thereof shall withhold, withdraw or modify in a manner adverse to the Buyer the Company Board Recommendation; and

(v) any failure to provide the Company Board Recommendation in accordance with clause (iv) above shall be deemed to be a Company Change of Recommendation.

Section 6.13 Transaction Implementation by Way of Merger.

(a) The Parties may, in the circumstances set out in Section 6.12(a), prior to any election by the Buyer, with the prior written approval of the Company (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), to implement the Transaction by way of an Offer under such terms, agree to implement the Transaction by way of a merger pursuant to Part 18B of the Companies Law (the “Merger”), rather than by way of a Scheme of Arrangement and whether or not the Scheme Document has been published. If the Parties agree to implement the Transaction by way of a Merger in accordance with this Section 6.13, the Parties shall enter into a merger agreement on substantially the same terms as this Agreement but modified or amended insofar as is necessary solely as a result of the switch from the Scheme of Arrangement to the Merger and otherwise to incorporate the information required by Article 127D of the Companies Law and convene the relevant meeting(s) of the Company in order to pass the relevant Company Shareholder Resolutions to approve the Merger, and the terms and conditions set out in this Agreement shall be deemed to be modified or amended in so far as is necessary as a result of the switch from the Scheme of Arrangement to the Merger.

(b) For the purposes of the Merger, the merged body (as defined in Article 127A(1) of the Companies Law) shall be the Company and the merging bodies (as defined in Article 127A(1) of the Companies Law) shall be:

(i) the Company; and

(ii) a Jersey company to be incorporated by the Buyer as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Buyer which such company is permitted to so merge with the Company pursuant to: (a) the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation or establishment; and (b) the Companies Law.

Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that the Transaction is fulfilled to the extent possible.

Section 9.10 Governing Law

(a) Any Relevant Matter and any dispute regarding the existence, scope or validity of this agreement to arbitrate or the arbitrability of any Relevant Matter, shall be finally settled by arbitration under the Rules of Arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce (the “ICC” and such rules, the “Rules”).

The third arbitrator, who shall be the president of the arbitral tribunal, shall be jointly nominated by the two other arbitrators within twenty (20) days from the date of the confirmation of the second arbitrator. If any arbitrator is not nominated within these time periods, the ICC Court of Arbitration shall appoint such arbitrator(s).

(c) The Parties agree that any service or written communication (including, the answer, any reply or exchange of information) under the ICC or the Rules shall be made in a manner provided by Section 9.5 of this Agreement, or as otherwise agreed by the Parties in writing. The arbitrators shall be empowered to award monetary damages and to grant specific performance of this Agreement and other equitable relief, including interim relief pending the final award.

59

(d) Any award of the arbitrators shall be final and binding upon the Parties, and shall be the sole and exclusive remedy between the Parties regarding any Relevant Matters presented to the arbitrators. Judgment upon any award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction over any Party or any of its assets. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, any Party to an award may apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for the enforcement of such award and, exclusively for purposes of the enforcement of such award, the Parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally submit to the jurisdiction of any state or federal court of competent jurisdiction in New York or Delaware, and waive any defenses to such enforcement based on lack of personal jurisdiction, inconvenient forum, improper venue or any right of objection to jurisdiction on account of its place of incorporation or domicile.

(e) Each of the Parties hereby irrevocably consents and submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (or, only if such court declines to accept jurisdiction over a particular matter, then in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware or, if jurisdiction is not then available in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware (but only in such event), then in any Delaware state court sitting in New Castle County) and any appellate court from any of such courts (the “Delaware Courts”) for provisional, interim or conservatory measures in aid of arbitration. In any such suit, action or proceeding, each of the Parties: (i) irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue in any such court, that any such court is an inconvenient forum, or any right of objection to the jurisdiction of any such court on account of a Party’s place of incorporation or domicile; and (ii) irrevocably consents to service of. process anywhere in the world by the means provided in Section 9.5, which shall be deemed effective service of process; provided that nothing herein shall affect the right of any Party to serve process in any other manner permitted by applicable Law. Without prejudice to such provisional remedies that may be granted by the Delaware Courts, the arbitrators shall have full authority to grant provisional, interim or conservatory measures, to order a party to request that a court modify or vacate any temporary or preliminary relief issued by such court and to award damages for the failure of any party to comply with the arbitrators’ orders to that effect.

(f) Any arbitral proceedings conducted hereunder shall be confidential, and the Parties, their agents, Subsidiaries and Affiliates agree not to disclose to any third party (i) the existence or status of the arbitration, (ii) all information made known, documents produced, and submissions made in the arbitration not otherwise in the public domain, and (iii) all awards arising from the arbitration, except and to the extent that disclosure is required by applicable law or is required to protect or pursue a legal right.

(g) The prevailing party shall be entitled to recover its reasonable costs, including administrative fees and expenses, arbitrators’ fees and expenses, and fees and expenses of legal representation, incurred in any arbitration proceeding under this Section 9.11 and in any action to enforce this Section 9.11 or any award made under this Section 9.11 in any judicial or arbitration proceeding.

(h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if any Party initiates an arbitration to enforce specifically the terms of this Agreement, then the End Date will be automatically extended by (A) the amount of time during which such arbitration lasts plus twenty (20) Business Days; or (B) such other time period established by the arbitral tribunal presiding over such Relevant Matter.

Section 9.12 Waiver of Jury Trial. FOR THE AVOIDANCE OF DOUBT, EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY OF THE AGREEMENTS DELIVERED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR THE TRANSACTION AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY. EACH PARTY CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (A) NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE SUCH WAIVERS, (B) IT UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF SUCH WAIVERS, (C) IT MAKES SUCH WAIVERS VOLUNTARILY, AND (D) IT HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 9.12.

Section 9.13 Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the Parties and their permitted successors and assigns. No Party may assign or delegate, by operation of law or otherwise, all or any portion of its rights, obligations or liabilities under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other Parties; provided that, prior to the Closing, the Buyer may assign or delegate its obligations under this Agreement, in whole or in part, to any wholly-owned direct or indirect subsidiary of the Buyer; provided that no such assignment shall relieve the Buyer of any of its obligations under this Agreement.

60

Section 9.14 Enforcement; Remedies; Limitation of Liability; Subsidiaries.

(a) Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, any and all remedies herein expressly conferred upon a Party will be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred hereby, or by Law or equity upon such Party, and the exercise by a Party of any one remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other remedy.

(b) The Parties agree that irreparable injury will occur in the event that any provision of this Agreement is not performed in accordance with its specific terms or is otherwise breached and that monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy therefor. It is accordingly agreed that, prior to the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Article VIII and in the absence of an obligation to make payment of the Company Termination Fee pursuant to Section 8.2(e), each Party shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent or remedy any breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement by any other Party, to a decree or order of specific performance to specifically enforce the terms and provisions of this Agreement and to any further equitable relief.

(c) The Parties’ rights in this Section 9.14 are an integral part of the Transaction and each Party hereby waives any objections to any remedy referred to in this Section 9.14 on the basis that there is an adequate remedy at Law or that an award of such remedy is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at Law or equity. For the avoidance of doubt, each Party agrees that there is not an adequate remedy at Law for a breach of this Agreement by any Party. In the event that any Party seeks any remedy referred to in this Section 9.14, such Party shall not be required to obtain, furnish, post or provide any bond or other security in connection with or as a condition to obtaining any such remedy.

(d) Whenever this Agreement requires a Subsidiary of the Buyer or the Company to take any action, such requirement shall be deemed to include an undertaking on the part of the Buyer or the Company, as applicable, to cause such Subsidiary to take such action.

Section 9.15 Debt Financing Sources. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, each of the Parties to this Agreement, on behalf of itself and each of its Affiliates, hereby:

(a) agrees that it will not bring or support any action, cause of action, claim, cross-claim or third-party claim or any proceeding, whether in law or in equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, involving the Debt Financing Sources, arising out of or relating to, this Agreement, the Debt Financing or any of the agreements entered into in connection with the Debt Financing or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or the performance of any services thereunder in any forum other than exclusively in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York, or, if under applicable law exclusive jurisdiction is vested in the federal courts, the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (and appellate courts thereof) and irrevocably submits itself and its property with respect to any such proceeding to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts;

(b) agrees that any such proceeding shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York (without giving effect to any conflicts of law principles that would result in the application of the laws of another state);

(c) agrees that service of process upon such Person in any such proceeding shall be effective if notice is given in accordance with Section 9.5;

(d) knowingly, intentionally and voluntarily waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, trial by jury in any proceeding brought against any Debt Financing Source in any way arising out of or relating to, this Agreement, the Debt Financing, or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or the performance of any services thereunder;

(e) agrees that notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, none of the Company, any Company Subsidiary, any of their Affiliates or any of their respective stockholders, partners, members, officers, directors, employees, controlling persons, agents and representatives shall have any rights or claims against any Debt Financing Source relating to or arising out of this Agreement, the Debt Financing, or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or the performance of any services thereunder, whether at law or equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise;

61

(f) KNOWINGLY, INTENTIONALLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY PROCEEDING BROUGHT AGAINST ANY DEBT FINANCING SOURCE IN ANY WAY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO, THIS AGREEMENT, THE DEBT FINANCING OR ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY OR THE PERFORMANCE OF ANY SERVICES THEREUNDER; and
