“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”). SUCH SECURITIES MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED UNLESS (A) A REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE ACT IS IN EFFECT AS TO SUCH TRANSFER OR (B) PURSUANT TO RULE 144, OR (C) IN THE OPINION OF THE COMPANY, REGISTRATION UNDER THE ACT IS UNNECESSARY IN ORDER FOR SUCH TRANSFER TO COMPLY WITH THE ACT.”
“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”), AND, ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR SOLD WITHIN THE UNITED STATES OR TO, OR FOR THE ACCOUNT OR BENEFIT OF, U.S. PERSONS, EXCEPT AS SET FORTH BELOW.

-4-
SUBSTANTIALLY TO THE EFFECT OF THIS LEGEND. IN CONNECTION WITH ANY TRANSFER OF THESE SHARES PURSUANT TO CLAUSES (C), (D) OR (F) ABOVE, THE HOLDER MUST, PRIOR TO SUCH TRANSFER, FURNISH TO THE COMPANY SUCH CERTIFICATIONS, LEGAL OPINIONS OR OTHER INFORMATION AS THE COMPANY MAY REASONABLY REQUIRE TO CONFIRM THAT SUCH TRANSFER IS BEING MADE PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE ACT. AS USED HEREIN, THE TERMS ‘OFFSHORE TRANSACTION,’ ‘UNITED STATES,’ AND ‘U.S. PERSON’ HAVE THE MEANING GIVEN TO THEM BY REGULATION S UNDER THE ACT.”

Each Holder consents to the Company making a notation on its records and giving instructions to any transfer agent of the Preference Shares or the Ordinary Shares in order to implement the restrictions on transfer established in this Section 2.
2.4 Notice of Proposed Transfers. The holder of each certificate representing Restricted Securities by acceptance thereof agrees to comply in all respects with the provisions of this Section 2.4. Prior to any proposed sale, assignment, transfer, charge or pledge of any Restricted Securities (other than (a) a transfer not involving a change in beneficial ownership, (b) in transactions involving the distribution without consideration of Restricted Securities by the holder to any of its partners, members, affiliates or retired partners or members, or to the estate of any of its partners or members or retired partners or members, or (c) a Permitted Transfer), the holder thereof shall give written notice to the Company of such holder’s intention to effect such transfer, charge sale, assignment or pledge. Each such notice shall describe the manner and circumstances of the proposed transfer, charge sale, assignment or pledge in sufficient detail, and if requested by the Company, shall be accompanied, at such holder’s expense by either (i) a written opinion of legal counsel who shall be, and whose legal opinion shall be, reasonably satisfactory to the Company addressed to the Company, to the effect that the proposed transfer of the Restricted Securities may
-5-
be effected without registration under the Securities Act, (ii) a “no action” letter from the Commission to the effect that the transfer of such securities without registration will not result in a recommendation by the staff of the Commission that action be taken with respect thereto, or (iii) other evidence, reasonably satisfactory to the Company, that such transaction complies with applicable securities laws, whereupon the holder of such Restricted Securities shall be entitled to transfer such Restricted Securities in accordance with the terms of the notice delivered by the holder to the Company. The transferees shall be bound by the obligations of the transferor in this Agreement and other shareholder agreements, including the Standoff Agreement (as defined in paragraph 2.14) below. Each certificate evidencing the Restricted Securities transferred as above provided (other than a Permitted Transfer) shall bear the appropriate restrictive legends set forth in Section 2.3 above, except that such certificate shall not bear such restrictive legends if in the opinion of counsel for such holder and the Company such legend is not required in order to establish compliance with any provision of the Securities Act.
2.5 Demand Registration.
(a) Request for Registration. In case the Company shall receive from Initiating Holders a written request that the Company effect any registration, qualification or compliance with respect to all or a part of the Registrable Securities, the gross cash proceeds of which equals or exceeds US$40,000,000.00, the Company will:
(i) promptly give written notice of the proposed registration, qualification or compliance to all other Holders; and
(ii) as soon as practicable, use its best efforts to effect such registration, qualification or compliance (including, without limitation, appropriate qualification under applicable blue sky or other state securities laws and appropriate compliance with applicable regulations issued under the Securities Act and any other governmental requirements or regulations) as may be so requested and as would permit or facilitate the sale and distribution of all or such portion of such Registrable Securities as are specified in such request, together with all or such portion of the Registrable Securities of any Holder or Holders joining in such request as are specified in a written request received by the Company within twenty (20) days after receipt of such written notice from the Company; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to take any action to effect any such registration, qualification or compliance pursuant to this Section 2.5:
(1) in any particular jurisdiction in which the Company would be required to execute a general consent to service of process in effecting such registration, qualification or compliance unless the Company is already subject to service in such jurisdiction and except as may be required by the Securities Act;
(2) prior to six (6) months after the effective date of the Company’s first registered public offering of its equity securities in the jurisdiction in which the Initiating Holders have requested such registration be effected or five (5) years after the First Closing (as defined in the B-1 Extension Purchase Agreement), whichever is earlier;
(3) during the period starting with the date sixty (60) days prior to the Company’s estimated date of filing of, and ending on the date six (6) months immediately following the effective date of, any registration statement pertaining to securities of the
-6-
Company (other than a registration of securities in a transaction under Rule 145 promulgated under the Securities Act (“Rule 145”) or with respect to an employee benefit plan), provided that the Company is actively employing in good faith all reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective;
(4) after the Company has effected two (2) such registrations pursuant to this subparagraph 2.5(a), and such registrations have been declared or ordered effective; or
(5) if the Initiating Holders may dispose of shares of Registrable Securities pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-3 or Form F-3 under the Securities Act or any successor forms thereto (“Form S-3/F-3”) pursuant to a request made under Section 2.7 hereof.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event (i) the Initiating Holders have requested a registration to be effected in a jurisdiction other than the United States, (ii) the Company has not previously effected a registration in such jurisdiction, and (iii) the Board determines in its sole discretion that such registration would impose materially more burdensome or costly obligations on the part of the Company as compared to those to which the Company would be subject if the request was for a registration to be effected in the United States, then in such event, the Company shall not be obligated to effect such registration in such jurisdiction but shall be obligated to effect such registration in the United States.
(b) Underwriting. In the event that a registration pursuant to Section 2.5 is for a registered public offering involving an underwriting, the Company shall so advise the Holders as part of the notice given pursuant to Section 2.5(a)(i). In such event, the right of any Holder to registration pursuant to Section 2.5 shall be conditioned upon such Holder’s participation in the underwriting arrangements required by this Section 2.5, and the inclusion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in the underwriting to the extent requested shall be limited to the extent provided herein.
The Company shall (together with all Holders proposing to distribute their securities through such underwriting) enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the managing underwriter selected for such underwriting by the Company, but subject to reasonable approval of a majority in interest of the Initiating Holders (based on Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2.5, if the managing underwriter advises the Initiating Holders in writing that marketing factors require a limitation of the number of shares to be underwritten, then the Company shall so advise all holders of Registrable Securities and the number of shares of Registrable Securities that may be included in the registration and underwriting shall be allocated, among all Holders in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective amounts of Registrable Securities held by such Holders at the time of filing the registration statement; provided, however, that the number of shares of Registrable Securities to be included in such underwriting and registration shall not be reduced unless all other securities of the Company are first entirely excluded from the underwriting and registration. No Registrable Securities excluded from the underwriting by reason of the underwriter’s marketing limitation shall be included in such registration. To facilitate the allocation of shares in accordance with the above provisions, the Company or the underwriters may round the number of shares allocated to any Holder to the nearest 100 shares.
-7-
If any Holder of Registrable Securities disapproves of the terms of the underwriting, such person may elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to the Company, the managing underwriter and the Initiating Holders. The Registrable Securities and/or other securities so withdrawn shall also be withdrawn from registration, and such Registrable Securities shall not be transferred in a public distribution prior to ninety (90) days after the effective date of such registration, or such other shorter period of time as the underwriters may require.
2.6 “Piggyback” Registration.
(a) Notice of Registration. If at any time or from time to time the Company shall determine to register any of its securities, either for its own account or the account of a security holder or holders, other than (i) a registration relating solely to employee benefit plans, or (ii) a registration relating solely to a Rule 145 transaction, the Company will:
(i) promptly give to each Holder written notice thereof; and
(ii) include in such registration (and any related qualification under blue sky laws or other compliance), and in any underwriting involved therein, all the Registrable Securities specified in a written request or requests, made within twenty (20) days after receipt of such written notice from the Company, by any Holder.
(b) Underwriting. If the registration of which the Company gives notice is for a registered public offering involving an underwriting, the Company shall so advise the Holders as a part of the written notice given pursuant to Section 2.6(a)(i). In such event the right of any Holder to registration pursuant to Section 2.6 shall be conditioned upon such Holder’s participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of Registrable Securities in the underwriting to the extent provided herein. All Holders proposing to distribute their securities through such underwriting shall (together with the Company and the other holders distributing their securities through such underwriting) enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the managing underwriter selected for such underwriting by the Company. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2.6, if the managing underwriter determines that marketing factors require a limitation of the number of shares to be underwritten, the managing underwriter may limit the number of Registrable Securities to be included in such registration and underwriting. Except in connection with an IPO, no such reduction shall reduce the amount of Registrable Securities of the selling Holders included in the registration below thirty percent (30%) of the total amount of securities included in such registration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if such offering is an IPO, any or all of the Registrable Securities of the Holders may be excluded in accordance with Section 2.6(a), provided that any other shares other than (i) shares being offered by the Company or (ii) shares being offered by such other party at whose request such registration is being undertaken (provided the rights pursuant to which such other party requested such registration were agreed to pursuant to Section 2.17) shall be excluded from registration prior to the exclusion of the Registrable Securities of the Holders. The Company shall so advise all Holders and other holders distributing their securities through such underwriting and the number of shares of Registrable Securities that may be included in the registration and underwriting shall be allocated among all the Holders in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective amounts of Registrable Securities held by such Holder at the time of filing the Registration Statement pursuant to which the securities of the Company shall be marketed (generally referred to as the “Reds”). To facilitate the allocation of shares in accordance with the above provisions, the Company may round the number of shares allocated to
-8-
any Holder or holder to the nearest 100 shares. If any Holder or holder disapproves of the terms of any such underwriting, he may elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to the Company and the managing underwriter. Any securities excluded or withdrawn from such underwriting shall be withdrawn from such registration, and shall not be transferred in a public distribution prior to ninety (90) days after the effective date of the registration statement relating thereto, or such other shorter period of time as the underwriters may require.
(c) Right to Terminate Registration. The Company shall have the right to terminate or withdraw any registration initiated by it under this Section 2.6 prior to the effectiveness of such registration whether or not any Holder has elected to include securities in such registration. Selling Expenses of such withdrawn registration shall be borne by the Company.
2.7 Registration on Form S-3/F-3.
(a) If any Holder or Holders who in the aggregate hold at least 15% of the Registrable Securities then outstanding request that the Company file a registration statement on Form S-3/F-3 for a public offering of shares of the Registrable Securities, the reasonably anticipated gross cash proceeds of which would exceed US$1,000,000.00, and the Company is a registrant entitled to use Form S-3/F-3 to register the Registrable Securities for such an offering, the Company shall use its best efforts to cause such Registrable Securities to be registered for the offering on such form and to cause such Registrable Securities to be qualified in such jurisdictions as such Holder or Holders may reasonably request; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to effect more than two (2) registrations pursuant to this Section 2.7 in any twelve (12) month period. The Company shall inform other Holders of the proposed registration and offer them the opportunity to participate. The substantive provisions of Section 2.6(b) shall be applicable to each registration initiated under this Section 2.7.
(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be obligated to take any action pursuant to this Section 2.7: (i) in any particular jurisdiction in which the Company would be required to execute a general consent to service of process, in effecting such registration, qualification or compliance unless the Company is already subject to service in such jurisdiction and except as may be required by the Securities Act; or (ii) during the period starting with the date sixty (60) days prior to the Company’s estimated date of filing of, and ending on the date six (6) months immediately following, the effective date of any registration statement pertaining to securities of the Company (other than a registration of securities in a Rule 145 transaction or with respect to an employee benefit plan), provided that the Company is actively employing in good faith all reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective.
2.8 Expenses of Registration. All Registration Expenses incurred in connection with all registrations pursuant to Sections 2.5, 2.6 and 2.7 shall be borne by the Company; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay for any expenses of any registration proceeding begun pursuant to Section 2.5 if the registration request is subsequently withdrawn at the request of the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities to be registered (in which case all participating Holders shall bear such expenses), unless the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities agree to forfeit their right to one demand registration pursuant to Section 2.5; provided further however, that if the requested registration is withdrawn and at the time of such withdrawal the Holders have learned of a material adverse change in the condition, business or prospects of the Company from that known to the Holders at the time of their request and have withdrawn the request
-9-
with reasonable promptness following disclosure by the Company of such material adverse change, then the Holders shall not be required to pay any of such expenses or forfeit a demand registration pursuant to Section 2.5. All Selling Expenses shall be borne by the Holders of the securities so registered pro rata on the basis of the number of their shares so registered.
2.9 Registration Procedures. In the case of each registration, qualification or compliance effected by the Company pursuant to this Section 2, the Company will keep each Holder advised in writing as to the initiation of each registration, qualification and compliance and as to the completion thereof. At its expense the Company will:
(a) prepare and file with the Commission a registration statement with respect to such securities and use its best efforts to cause such registration statement to become and remain effective for at least ninety (90) days or until the distribution described in the Registration Statement has been completed;
(b) prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection with such registration statement as may be necessary to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such registration statement for the period set forth in subsection (a) above;
(c) furnish to the Holders participating in such registration and to the underwriters of the securities being registered such reasonable number of copies of the registration statement, preliminary prospectus, final prospectus and such other documents as such underwriters may reasonably request in order to facilitate the public offering of such securities;
(d) use its reasonable efforts to register and qualify the securities covered by such registration statement under such other securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions as shall be reasonably requested by the Holders; provided that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to qualify to do business or to file a general consent to service of process in any such states or jurisdictions, unless the Company is already subject to service in such jurisdiction and except as may be required by the Securities Act;
(e) in the event of any underwritten public offering, enter into and perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement, in usual and customary form, with the managing underwriters of such offering. Each Holder participating in such underwriting shall also enter into and perform its obligations under such an agreement;
(f) notify each Holder of Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act of the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included in such registration statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances then existing. The Company will use reasonable efforts to amend or supplement such prospectus in order to cause such prospectus not to include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances then existing; and
-10-
(g) use its reasonable efforts to furnish, on the date that such Registrable Securities are delivered to the underwriters for sale, if such securities are being sold through underwriters, (i) an opinion, dated as of such date, of the counsel representing the Company for the purposes of such registration, in form and substance as is customarily given to underwriters in an underwritten public offering, addressed to the underwriters, if any, and (ii) a letter, dated as of such date, from the independent certified public accountants of the Company, in form and substance as is customarily given by independent certified public accountants to underwriters in an underwritten public offering addressed to the underwriters.
2.10 Indemnification.

such Holder, each of its officers, trustees and directors and each person controlling such Holder within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, against all claims, losses, damages and liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arising out of or based on any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any such registration statement, prospectus, offering circular or other document, or any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and will reimburse the Company, such other Holders, such directors, officers, trustees, persons, underwriters or control persons for any legal or any other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) or omission (or alleged omission) is made in such registration statement, prospectus, offering circular or other document in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by an instrument duly executed by such Holder and stated to be specifically for use therein; provided, however, that the foregoing indemnity agreement is subject to the condition that, insofar as it relates to any untrue statement, alleged untrue statement, omission or alleged omission made in a preliminary prospectus on file with the Commission at the time the registration statement becomes effective or in the Final Prospectus, such indemnity agreement shall not inure to the benefit of any underwriter or any Holder, if there is no underwriter, if a copy of the Final Prospectus was not furnished to the person asserting the loss, liability, claim or damage at or prior to the time such action is required by the Securities Act; provided, further, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 2.10(b) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Holder, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the liability of each Holder under this subsection (b) shall be limited in an amount equal to the proceeds of the shares sold by such Holder, less any applicable underwriting discounts and commissions; provided, however, such limitation shall not apply in the case of fraud by such Holder.
(c) Each Party entitled to indemnification under this Section 2.10 (the “Indemnified Party”) shall give notice to the Party required to provide indemnification (the “Indemnifying Party”) promptly after such Indemnified Party has actual knowledge of any claim as to which indemnity may be sought, and the Indemnifying Party shall have the option to assume the defense of any such claim or any litigation resulting therefrom, provided that counsel for the Indemnifying Party, who shall conduct the defense of such claim or litigation, shall be approved by the Indemnified Party (whose approval shall not unreasonably be withheld), and the Indemnified Party may participate in such defense at such Party’s expense, and provided further that the failure of any Indemnified Party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Section 2 unless the failure to give such notice is materially prejudicial to an Indemnifying Party’s ability to defend such action and provided further, that the Indemnifying Party shall not assume the defense for matters as to which there is a conflict of interest or separate and different defenses. No claim may be settled without the consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). No Indemnifying Party, in the defense of any such claim or litigation, shall, except with the consent of each Indemnified Party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation.
-12-
(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 2.10 is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an Indemnified Party with respect to any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense referred to therein, then the Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party hereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party on the one hand and of the Indemnified Party on the other in connection with the statements or omissions that, resulted in such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense as well as any other relevant equitable considerations; provided that in no event shall any contribution by a Holder under this subsection 2.10(d), plus all amounts paid by such Holder pursuant to Section 2.10(b), exceed the net proceeds from the public offering received by such Holder (calculated as set forth in the last sentence of Section 2.10(b)), except in the case of willful fraud by such Holder. The relative fault of the Indemnifying Party and of the Indemnified Party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Indemnifying Party or by the Indemnified Party, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information, and opportunity to correct’ or prevent’ such statement or omission.
(e) The Company may enter into indemnification and contribution provisions in any underwriting agreement entered into in connection with the public offering if so requested by the underwriters. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that the provisions on indemnification and contribution contained in the underwriting agreement entered into in connection with the underwritten public offering are in conflict with the foregoing provisions, the provisions in the underwriting agreement shall control.
(f) The obligations of the Company and the Holders under this Section 2.10 shall survive the completion of any offering of Registrable Securities in a registration statement under this Section 2, and otherwise.
2.11 Information by Holder. It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Company to take any action pursuant to this Section 2 with respect to the Registrable Securities of any selling holder that such Holder shall furnish to the Company such information regarding such Holder or Holders, the Registrable Securities held by them and the distribution proposed by such Holder or Holders as the Company may reasonably request in writing and as shall be required in connection with any registration, qualification or compliance referred to in this Section 2. The Company shall have no obligation with respect to any registration requested pursuant to Section 2.5 or 2.7 of this Agreement if, as a result of the application of the preceding sentence, the number of shares or the anticipated aggregate offering price of the Registrable Securities to be included in the registration does not equal or exceed the number of shares or the anticipated aggregate offering price required to originally trigger the Company’s obligation to initiate such registration as specified in subsection 2.5(a) or subsection 2.7(a), whichever is applicable.
2.12 Rule 144 Reporting. With a view to making available the benefits of certain rules and regulations of the Commission which may at any time permit the sale of the Restricted Securities to the public without registration, after such time as a public market exists for the Ordinary Shares of the Company, the Company agrees to use its best efforts to:
(a) make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act, at all times after the effective date that the Company becomes subject to the reporting requirements of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act;
-13-
(b) file with the Commission in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act (at any time after it has become subject to such reporting requirements); and
(c) so long as the Investor owns any Restricted Securities, to furnish to the Investor forthwith upon request a written statement by the Company as to its compliance with the reporting requirements of said Rule 144 (at any time after ninety (90) days after the effective date of the first registration statement filed by the Company for an offering of its securities to the general public in the United States), and of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act (at any time after it has become subject to such reporting requirements), a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company, and such other reports and documents of the Company and other information in the possession of or reasonably obtainable by the Company as the Investor may reasonably request in availing itself of any rule or regulation of the Commission allowing the Investor to sell any such securities without registration.
2.13 Transfer of Registration Rights. The rights to cause the Company to register securities granted to each Holder under Sections 2.5, 2.6 and 2.7 may be assigned to a transferee or assignee in connection with any transfer or assignment of Registrable Securities by any Holder, provided that: (a) such transfer may otherwise be effected in accordance with applicable securities laws; (b) the Company is given prompt notice of the transfer; (c) such assignee or transferee agrees to be bound by the terms of this Agreement; and (d) such assignee or transferee is (i) any partner or retired partner of any Holder which is a partnership (or any member or retired member of any Holder which is a limited liability company), (ii) any affiliate of any Holder, or (iii) any other transferee reasonably acceptable to the Company who acquired at least one million (1,000,000) Registrable Securities, as adjusted for Recapitalizations (an “Eligible Transferee”).
2.14 Standoff Agreement. In connection with any public offering of the Company’s equity securities pursuant to (a) a registration statement filed under the Securities Act or (b) securities laws applicable to an offering of securities in a jurisdiction other than the United States, upon request of the Company or the underwriters managing any underwritten offering of the Company’s securities, the Holders shall not sell, make any short sale of, loan, grant any option for the purchase of, or otherwise dispose of any equity securities of the Company without the prior written consent of the Company or such underwriters, as the case may be, for such period of time (not to exceed one hundred eighty (180) days) from the effective date of such registration (or such other period as may be requested by the Company or an underwriter to accommodate regulatory restrictions on (i) the publication or other distribution of research reports and (ii) analyst recommendations and opinions, including, but not limited to, the restrictions contained in NASD Rule 2711(f)(4) or NYSE Rule 472(f)(4), or any successor provisions or amendments thereto) as may be requested by the Company or such underwriters and will enter into a written form of agreement in such form reasonably requested by the underwriters (the “Standoff Agreement”) to effect the foregoing; provided that all officers and directors of the Company and holders of at least one percent (1%) of the Company’s voting securities enter into similar agreements. Furthermore, the Company and any underwriter will not release any officer, director or greater than one percent (1%) holder, in whole or in part, from their market stand-off obligations unless a proportionate amount of Registrable Securities held by each Holder is also released.
-14-
2.15 Delay. If the Company shall furnish to such Holders a certificate signed by the President of the Company stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board it would be seriously detrimental to the Company or its members for a registration statement to be filed in the near future, then the Company’s obligation to use its best efforts to register, qualify or comply under Sections 2.5 or 2.7 shall be deferred for a period not to exceed sixty (60) days from the date of receipt of written request from the Initiating Holders; provided that such right to delay a request shall be exercised by the Company not more than once in any twelve (12) month period.
2.16 No Injunction. No Holder shall have any right to obtain or seek an injunction restraining or otherwise delaying any such registration as the result of any controversy that might arise with respect to the interpretation or implementation of this Section 2.
2.17 Limitation on Subsequent Registration Rights. The Company shall not, without the consent of the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities then outstanding, enter into any agreement with any Holder or prospective holder of any securities of the Company that would grant such Holder or prospective holder any registration rights on a parity with or senior to those granted to the Holders of Registrable Securities hereunder; provided that the Company shall not, without the consent of the Holders of a majority of the Series B-1 Shares, enter into any agreement with any Holder or prospective holder of any securities of the Company or take any other action that would have the effect of negating or removing the registration rights of the Holders of Series B-1 Shares or would adversely affect the Holders of Series B-1 Shares in a materially disproportionate manner as compared with the Holders of Series A Shares, taking into account the Original Issue Price of the Series B-1 Shares and the Original Issue Price of the Series A Shares.
2.18 Termination. The rights to cause the Company to register securities granted to each Holder under Sections 2.5, 2.6 and 2.7 shall expire upon the earlier of (a) such time as such Holder receives an opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to such Holder (which may be regular outside corporate counsel to the Company (an opinion from whom shall be deemed acceptable to such Holder)), which states that such Holder may sell all of such Holder’s securities pursuant to Rule 144 during any ninety (90) day period, and (b) three (3) years after an IPO.

3.10 Drag-Along Rights.
(a) Prior to an IPO, in the event that the Board and members holding at least 50% of the Company’s outstanding Ordinary Shares and Preference Shares, voting together as a single class on an as-converted basis (the “Accepting Members”), approve a Deemed Liquidation Event in which the aggregate consideration to be paid to the shareholders of the Company, less any required withholding, holdbacks or escrows, is no less than US$700,000,000 (an “Approved Sale”), then the remaining members (collectively, the “Remaining Members”) shall each consent to, vote for and raise no objections to the Approved Sale. If the Approved Sale will take the form of an asset sale, merger or consolidation, the Remaining Members shall vote in favor of such transaction and shall waive any appraisal rights or dissenters’ rights in connection with such transaction. If the Approved Sale is structured as a sale of the shares of the Company, each Remaining Member shall agree to sell all shares in the Company then held by such Remaining Member on the terms and conditions approved by the Accepting Members. All shares transferred by the Remaining Members pursuant to this Section 3.10 shall be sold at the same price and otherwise treated identically with the shares of the same class and series being sold by the Accepting Members in all respects. The Remaining Members shall each take such actions as may be reasonably required and otherwise cooperate in good faith with the Accepting Members in connection with consummating the Approved Sale, including the execution of such agreements and such instruments and other actions reasonably necessary to effectuate the allocation and distribution of the aggregate consideration upon the Approved Sale.
-17-
(b) The Accepting Members shall give the Remaining Members at least ten (10) days prior written notice of any Approved Sale as to which the Accepting Members intend to exercise their rights under this Section 3.10 (which 10-day period may be shortened or waived by holders of a majority of the shares held by all of the Remaining Members, voting together as a single class on an as-converted basis). Such notices shall be delivered by the Accepting Members to the Company to the attention of the President, and the Company shall thereupon cause such notices to be transmitted to each Remaining Member at its registered address maintained with the Company. Charges for such transmittal shall be against the account of the Accepting Members, who will be required to indicate the method of transmission to be used by the Company in this regard (e.g., regular post, express courier, etc.). The Company may require advance payment of funds from the Accepting Members to cover the costs of transmitting such notices.
(c) In furtherance of the foregoing, the Company is authorized to sell the shares held by the Remaining Members on behalf of the Remaining Members, and pursuant to such authorization, may execute all documents necessary to effectuate the sale and transfer of such shares on behalf of the Remaining Members. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.10, the Remaining Members shall not be obligated to sell their shares, and the Company shall not be authorized to sell the shares held by the Remaining Members in accordance with the preceding sentence, if the Accepting Members do not complete the Approved Sale on terms and conditions that are in all material respects identical to those specified in the notice.

-18-
any class or series of the Company’s share capital (other than the Series A Shares) or the authorization and issue of a new senior or pari passu class or series of securities shall not be deemed to have a materially disproportionate adverse effect on the holders of Series A Shares; provided, further, that consent shall not be required in connection with a Qualified IPO in which Preference Shares are converted into Ordinary Shares pursuant to Article 16 of the Articles;
(v) authorize, designate, reclassify, amend or issue, or obligate the Company to do any of the foregoing with respect to, any class or series of equity securities, including any security exercisable for or convertible into any equity security, which is or will be senior to or pari passu with, the Series A Shares with respect to any rights, preferences or privileges or restrictions other than the Series B Preference Shares and Series B-1 Shares and any warrant issued in connection with the issuance of Series B-1 Shares (and any equity securities issued or issuable upon exercise of such warrant);

authorization and issue of a new senior or pari passu class or series of securities shall not be deemed to have a materially disproportionate adverse effect on the holders of Series B-1 Shares; provided, further, that consent shall not be required in connection with a Qualified IPO in which Preference Shares are converted into Ordinary Shares pursuant to Article 16 of the Articles;

3.14 ERISA Investor Identification. Mellon Bank, N.A. as Trustee for the Weyerhaeuser Company Master Retirement Trust hereby represents to the Company and the other Investors that it is an ERISA Investor.
| 4. | Right of First Offer. |
4.1 Right of First Offer. Subject to the terms and conditions specified in this Section 4.1, the Company hereby grants to each Material Holder, a right of first offer to purchase its Pro Rata Share (as hereinafter defined) (in whole or in part) with respect to future sales by the Company of New Securities (as hereinafter defined). For purposes of this Section 4.1, a Material Holder’s “Pro Rata Share” shall mean that number of New Securities that equals the ratio that (i) the number of Ordinary Shares issuable or issued upon conversion of the Preference Shares held by such Material Holder bears to (ii) the total number of Ordinary Shares of the Company then outstanding (assuming full conversion and exercise of all convertible or exercisable securities, whether vested or unvested, then outstanding). Each time the Company proposes to issue or offer any shares of, or securities convertible into or exercisable for any shares of, any class of its shares or other equity securities (“New Securities”), the Company shall first make an offering of such New Securities to each Material Holder in accordance with the following provisions:
(a) The Company shall deliver a notice (“Notice”) to each of the Material Holders stating (i) its bona fide intention to offer such New Securities, (ii) the number of such New Securities to be offered, and (iii) the price and a summary of the terms, if any, upon which it proposes to offer such New Securities. Notice shall be provided in accordance with Section 5.5.
-21-
(b) By written notification received by the Company within fifteen (15) business days after receipt of the Notice, each Material Holder may elect to purchase or obtain, at the price and on the terms specified in the Notice, up to its Pro Rata Share of such New Securities. The Company shall promptly, in writing, inform each Material Holder that elects to purchase all the New Securities available to it (a “Fully-Exercising Holder”) of any other Material Holder’s failure to do likewise. During the five (5) business day period commencing after such information is given, each Fully-Exercising Holder may elect to purchase that portion of the New Securities for which Material Holders were entitled to subscribe but which were not subscribed for by the Material Holders that equals the ratio that (i) the number of Ordinary Shares issuable or issued upon conversion of the Preference Shares held by such Material Holder bears to (ii) the total number of Ordinary Shares of the Company then held (assuming full conversion and exercise of all convertible or exercisable securities, whether vested or unvested, then outstanding), by all Fully-Exercising Holders who wish to purchase some of the unsubscribed shares.
(c) If all New Securities that the Material Holders are entitled to obtain pursuant to subsection 4.1(b) are not elected to be obtained as provided in subsection 4.1(b) hereof, the Company may, during the ninety (90) day period following the expiration of the period provided in subsection 4.1(b) hereof, offer the remaining unsubscribed portion of such New Securities to any person or persons at a price not less than, and upon terms no more favorable to the offeree than those specified in the Notice. If the Company does not enter into an agreement for the sale of the New Securities within such period, or if such agreement is not consummated within sixty (60) days of the execution thereof, the right provided hereunder shall be deemed to be revived and such New Securities shall not be offered unless first reoffered to the Material Holders in accordance herewith.
(d) The right of first offer in this Section 4.1 shall not be applicable to the Series B Shares, the Series B-1 Shares, and any warrant (and any equity securities issued or issuable upon exercise of such warrant) issued prior to the date hereof, or Ordinary Shares (or any options, warrants or convertible securities exercisable or convertible into Ordinary Shares) issued or issuable:

| 5. | Miscellaneous. |
5.1 Waivers and Amendments.
(a) Subject to Section 5.1(b), with the written consent of the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities then outstanding, the obligations of the Company and the rights of the Investors under this Agreement may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance, either retroactively or prospectively and either for a specified period of time or indefinitely), and with the same consent, the Company, when authorized by resolution of its Board, may enter into a supplementary agreement for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing or waiving in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Agreement. Upon the effectuation of each such waiver, consent, agreement, amendment or modification the Company shall promptly give written notice thereof to any Party that has not previously consented thereto in writing. All such waivers and amendments shall be binding on all parties to this Agreement. Neither this Agreement nor any provisions hereof may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated orally, but only by a signed statement in writing.
(b) Notwithstanding Section 5.1(a), no obligation of the Company or right of the Investors under this Agreement may be waived or amended without the prior written consent of the Holders of a majority of the Series B-1 Shares then outstanding if such waiver or amendment
-23-
would: (i) adversely affect the Holders of Series B-1 Shares in a materially disproportionate manner as compared with the Holders of Series A Shares, taking into account the Original Issue Price of the Series B-1 Shares and the Original Issue Price of the Series A Shares, (ii) amend or waive the provisions set forth in Section 2.17 (Limitation on Subsequent Registration Rights) that the Company shall not enter into any agreement with any holder or prospective holder of any securities of the Company or take any other action that would have the effect of negating or removing the registration rights of the Holders of Series B-1 Shares or would adversely affect the Holders of Series B-1 Shares in a materially disproportionate manner as compared with the Holders of Series A Shares, taking into account the Original Issue Price of the Series B-1 Shares and the Original Issue Price of the Series A Shares, (iii) amend or waive the provision set forth in Section 3.10 (Drag-Along Rights) that the aggregate consideration to be paid to the shareholders of the Company in a Deemed Liquidation Event, less any required withholding, holdbacks or escrows, must not be less than $700,000,000 in order for such Deemed Liquidation Event to constitute an Approved Sale or (iv) amend or waive the provisions of Sections 3.11(a) through 3.11(d) (Protective Provisions).
5.2 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the internal laws of the State of California as such laws are applied to agreements between California residents entered into and to be performed within California. Each of the Parties irrevocably: (a) agrees that any dispute or controversy arising out of, relating to, or concerning any interpretation, construction, performance or breach of this Agreement, shall be settled by arbitration to be held in Santa ▇▇▇▇▇ County, California, in accordance with the rules then in effect of the American Arbitration Association; (b) waives, to the fullest extent it may effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such arbitration; and (c) submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the State of California in any such arbitration. The Parties hereby acknowledge and agree that (i) any decision of the arbitrator shall be final, conclusive and binding on the parties to the arbitration; (ii) judgment may be entered on the arbitrator’s decision in any court having jurisdiction; and (iii)the parties to the arbitration shall each pay an equal share of the costs and expenses of such arbitration, and each party shall separately pay for its respective counsel fees and expenses; provided, however, that the prevailing party in any such arbitration shall be entitled to recover from the non-prevailing party its reasonable costs and attorney fees.
5.3 Specific Enforcement. Except as otherwise provided herein, any and all remedies expressly conferred upon a Party by this Agreement 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. The Parties agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the Parties shall be entitled to seek an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof in any federal or state court in the State of California, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity.
5.4 Successors and Assigns. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the provisions hereof shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the successors, assigns, heirs, executors and administrators of the Parties. The Company shall not permit the transfer of any of the Registrable Securities on its books or issue a new certificate representing any of the Registrable
-24-
Securities unless and until the person to whom such security is to be transferred shall have executed a written agreement, substantially in the form of this Agreement or a joinder agreement approved by the Company, pursuant to which such person becomes a party to this Agreement and agrees to be bound by all the provisions hereof as if such person were an Investor. Any party who executes a joinder agreement with the Company in respect of this Agreement shall, for all purposes, be deemed an “Investor” hereunder.
5.5 Notices. All notices and other communications required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and shall be sent by facsimile or mailed by electronic, registered or certified mail or by overnight courier or otherwise delivered by hand or by messenger, addressed:

(b) if to any other holder of any shares subject to this Agreement, at such address as such holder shall have furnished the Company in writing, or, until any such holder so furnishes an address to the Company, then to and at the address of the last holder of such shares who has so furnished an address to the Company; or
(c) if to the Company, at the address of the Company’s principal corporate offices to the attention of President, or at such other address as the Company shall have furnished to the Investors in writing,

5.10 Delays or Omissions. No delay or omission to exercise any right, power or remedy accruing to any Party under this Agreement, upon any breach or default of any other Party under this Agreement, shall impair any such right, power or remedy of such non-breaching or non-defaulting Party nor shall it be construed to be a waiver of any such breach or default, or an acquiescence therein, or of or in any similar breach or default thereafter occurring; nor shall any waiver of any single breach or default be deemed a waiver of any other breach or default theretofore or thereafter occurring. Any waiver, permit, consent or approval of any kind or character on the part of any Party of any breach or default under this Agreement, or any waiver on the part of any Party of any provisions or conditions of this Agreement, must be in writing and shall be effective only to the extent specifically set forth in such writing.

5.15 New Investors.
