The Option Securities shall be sold with full title guarantee free from all liens, charges and encumbrances and with all rights attached to them at the date of Completion.

In the event the Option is exercised with respect to the Company, the Buyer acknowledges and agrees that in addition to the purchase of the Option Securities above Buyer may be required to purchase all of the Warrants, Warrant Shares and Ordinary Shares held by the Investors (the “Investor Securities”), for the same consideration per share as the Option Securities, to be paid in cash (in U.S. dollars). If the Investors do not require the Buyer to purchase the Investor Securities, the Buyer nonetheless has the right to require the Seller to exercise its drag-along right pursuant to the Shareholders Agreement, and compel the Investor Securities to be sold to the Buyer, for the same consideration per share as the Option Securities. In addition, concurrent with the purchase of the Option Securities and, if applicable, the Investor Securities, the parties shall work together to allow the Company to use such portion of the Total Consideration paid by the Buyer as is required to redeem in full all of the outstanding Series A Preferred Shares and the Notes at their respective Applicable Redemption Amount.

2.3

In the event the Option is exercised with respect to MidCo or Bidco, the Company shall use such portion of the Total Consideration paid by the Buyer as is required to redeem in full all of the outstanding Series A Preferred Shares and the Notes at their respective Applicable Redemption Amount. In addition, to the extent that Investor Securities are required to be purchased, the Buyer and Seller shall, at Completion, cause the Company to redeem, repurchase or make a distribution or dividend on the outstanding Ordinary Shares, Warrants and/or Warrant Shares, such that the holders thereof receive the same consideration thereof as if the Buyer had exercised the Option with respect to the Option Securities of the Company.

OPTION PERIOD

3.1

The Option may only be exercised:

(a)

on or after 19 August, 2022 (“Commencement Date”); and

(b)

no later than 5.00pm Eastern Time on 19 April, 2023 (“Expiration Date”), and if the Option is not exercised on or before the Expiration Date, it shall lapse.

For the purposes of this clause 3.1, the date of exercise of the Option is the date on which the Buyer serves the Exercise Notice on the Seller and not the date on which the Seller is deemed to receive the Exercise Notice in accordance with clause 15.2.

3.2

Any attempt by Buyer to exercise the Option prior to the Commencement Date or after the Expiration Date, shall be null and void and of no force or effect.

4.3

Once given, an Exercise Notice may not be revoked without the written consent of the Seller.

All dividends and other distributions resolved or declared to be paid or made by the Company for the Purchased Securities by reference to a record date which falls on or before Completion shall belong to and be payable to the Seller.

CONSIDERATION

an amount sufficient to allow the Company to fully redeem the Series A Preferred Shares and the Notes at the Applicable Redemption Amount, and to achieve the Hurdle Rate Return.
