The Independent Accountant, acting as expert, shall be requested to make a determination in respect of the Disputed Leakage within 10 Business Days of their appointment and to notify the Parties in writing of their determination.

The rights and remedies provided by this Section 6.7(e) are cumulative and in addition to any other rights and remedies which Purchaser may have hereunder or at law or in equity.

(f) The Parties agree that, if any court of competent jurisdiction determines that a specified time period, a specified geographical area, a specified business limitation or any other relevant feature of this Section 6.7 is unreasonable, arbitrary or against public policy, then a lesser period of time, geographical area, business limitation or other relevant feature which is determined by such court to be reasonable, not arbitrary and not against public policy may be enforced against the applicable party.

(b) In the event that any Legal Proceedings shall be instituted or that any claim or demand shall be asserted by any third party against a Party (the “Recipient Party”) in respect of which a Claim may be brought (regardless of the limitations set forth in Section 8.3) (a “Third Party Claim”), the Recipient Party shall promptly cause written notice of the assertion of any Third Party Claim of which it has Knowledge which may be subject to a Claim to be forwarded to the Party against whom that Claim may be brought (the “Notified Party”). The failure of the Recipient Party to give reasonably prompt notice of any Third Party Claim shall not release, waive or otherwise affect the Notified Party’s obligations with respect thereto except to the extent that the Notified Party can demonstrate actual loss and prejudice as a result of such failure. Subject to the provisions of this Section 8.2, the Notified Party shall have the right, at its sole expense, to be represented by counsel of its choice, which must be reasonably satisfactory to the Recipient Party, and to defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with any Third Party Claim; provided that the Notified Party shall have acknowledged and agreed in writing to the Recipient Party that it shall indemnify the Recipient Party in respect of the Third Party Claim and any action taken by that Notified Party pursuant to the terms of this Section 8.2. If the Notified Party elects to defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with any Third Party Claim, it shall within five days of the Recipient Party’s written notice of the assertion of such Third Party Claim (or sooner, if the nature of the Third Party Claim so requires) notify the Recipient Party of its intent to do so; provided, that the Notified Party must conduct the defense of the Third Party Claim actively and diligently thereafter in order to preserve its rights in this regard. If the Notified Party elects not to defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with any Third Party Claim or fails to notify the Recipient Party of its election as herein provided, the Recipient Party may defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with such Third Party Claim. If the Notified Party shall assume the defense of any Third Party Claim, the Recipient Party may participate, at his or its own expense, in the defense of such Third Party Claim; provided, however, that such Recipient Party shall be entitled to participate in any such defense with separate counsel: (i) at the expense of the Notified Party if so requested in writing by the Notified Party to participate; or (ii) in the reasonable opinion of counsel to the Recipient Party, a conflict or potential conflict exists between the Notified Party and the Recipient Party that would make such separate representation advisable. The parties hereto agree to provide reasonable access to the other to such documents and information as may be reasonably requested in connection with the defense, negotiation or settlement of any such Third Party Claim, except any document or information that is subject to privilege. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 8.2 to the contrary, no Party shall, without the written consent of the other applicable party, settle or compromise any Third Party Claim or permit a default or consent to entry of any judgment unless the claimant or claimants and such party provide to such other party an unqualified release from all liability in respect of the Third Party Claim. If the Notified Party makes any payment on any Third Party Claim, the Recipient Party shall be subrogated, to the extent of such payment, to all rights and remedies of the Recipient Party to any insurance benefits or other claims of the Recipient Party with respect to such Third Party Claim.

(c) After any final decision, judgment or award shall have been rendered by a Governmental Body of competent jurisdiction and the expiration of the time in which to appeal therefrom, or a settlement shall have been consummated, or the Recipient Party and the Notified Party shall have arrived at a mutually binding agreement, in each case with respect to an Third Party Claim hereunder, if the Notified Party has agreed to indemnify the Recipient Party in connection with the Third Party Claim in accordance with this Section 8.2, the Recipient Party shall forward to the Notified Party notice of any sums due and owing by the Notified Party pursuant to this Agreement with respect to such matter and the Notified Party shall pay all of such remaining sums so due and owing to the Recipient Party in accordance with the terms hereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds within five Business Days after the date of such notice.

8.3 Limitations for Breaches of Representations and Warranties.

(a) A party shall not have any liability for any Claim unless the aggregate amount of Losses incurred by it based upon, attributable to or resulting from the failure of any of the representations or warranties to be true and correct exceeds $2.50 million (the “Basket”) and, in such event, that party shall be liable for the entire amount of all such Losses; provided that the Basket limitation shall not apply to Losses related to the failure to be true and correct of any of the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 3.1, 3.2 , 3.3, 3.4, 4.1, 4.2, 4.3 and 4.6 hereof.

(b) The aggregate liability of Olayan shall not exceed the Olayan Initial Cash Consideration and the aggregate liability of NESR shall not exceed the NESR Liability Cap (each, being the “Purchaser’s Cap”) and the aggregate liability of any Selling Stockholder in respect of all claims under this Agreement shall not exceed the aggregate of: (i) the Initial Cash Consideration Amount received by it pursuant to the terms hereof; and (ii) the amount resulting from the product of: (A) the Consideration Equity Stock received by it pursuant to the terms hereof; and (B) the lower of: (I) 10; and (II) the value of the Consideration Equity Stock received by it pursuant to the terms hereof, such value to be determined on the date immediately prior to the date that the relevant claim is determined in accordance with Section 9.5 or settled in full amongst the Parties thereto. To clarify, Leakage that is not Permitted Leakage will not in any case increase the Purchaser’s Cap.

(c) For the purposes of determining the failure of any representations or warranties to be true and correct, the breach of any covenants and agreements, and calculating Losses hereunder, any materiality qualifications in the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements shall be disregarded.

(d) No party shall have any right of contribution or other recourse against the Company or the Subsidiaries or their respective directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys, representatives, assigns or successors for any Claim hereunder.

8.4 OFS Investments Limited. Notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary contained herein, each of the Parties acknowledges and agrees that the obligations and undertakings of OFS Investments Limited under this Agreement are solely the corporate or limited liability obligations and undertakings of OFS Investments Limited, and that none of the parties hereto shall have any recourse against any of the directors, officers, employees or corporate service provider of OFS Investments Limited in their capacities as such (nor shall any of them be personally liable) for any claims, losses, damages, liabilities, indemnities, representations or other obligations whatsoever under, or in connection with any of the transactions contemplated by, this Agreement. This Section does not affect:

(a) any liability or obligation of OFS Investments Limited itself under this Agreement; or

(b) any liability of OFS Investments Limited’s directors, officers, employees or corporate service provider which may arise as a result of their actual fraud or willful default. No person shall be found to have committed actual fraud or willful default under this Agreement unless or until a court of competent jurisdiction shall have made a finding to that effect.

9.2 Transaction Expenses. The Company agrees with the Selling Stockholders that it shall pay Transaction Expenses up to an amount equal to $5 million.

9.3 Confidential Information. Any restriction in this Agreement on the disclosure of Confidential Information shall not apply if and to the extent that:

(a) such disclosure is required for the purpose of any judicial proceedings or by any regulatory authority, governmental body or reputable securities exchange, provided that the other Parties to which the information relates shall have been, to the extent reasonably practicable, consulted and reasonable attempts made to resist or limit such disclosure;

(c) the information is disclosed by a Selling Stockholder on a confidential basis to its Affiliates or to its or its Affiliates’ respective directors, officers, employees, advisors, auditors, bankers, investors or prospective investors for the legitimate pursuit or conduct of their businesses or to limited partners of any funds managed and/or advised by that Selling Stockholder or any of its affiliates; or

(d) each Party to which the information relates has given its prior written consent to the contents and manner of the disclosure.

9.4 No Claim Against NESR Trust. The Selling Stockholders acknowledge that they have read the Prospectus and that NESR has established the NESR Trust from the proceeds of its initial public offering (“IPO”) and from certain private placements occurring simultaneously with the IPO for the benefit of NESR’s public shareholders (“Public Shareholders”) and certain parties (including the underwriters of the IPO) and that, except for a portion of the interest earned on the amounts held in the NESR Trust, NESR may disburse monies from the NESR Trust only: (i) to the Public Shareholders in the event they elect to redeem the Equity Stock in connection with the consummation of NESR’s initial business combination (as such term is used in the Prospectus) (“Business Combination”); (ii) to the Public Shareholders if NESR fails to consummate a Business Combination within 24 months from the closing of the IPO; (iii) any amounts necessary to pay any taxes; or (iv) to, or on behalf of, NESR after or concurrently with the consummation of a Business Combination. Without prejudice to any rights of the Selling Stockholders arising in connection with this Agreement, each Selling Stockholder acknowledges that, pursuant to the terms to which the NESR Trust is subject as of the date hereof, it does not now and does not at any time hereafter have (other than upon NESR Closing) any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies in the NESR Trust or distributions therefrom. NESR hereby agrees and undertakes that it shall not disburse any monies from the NESR Trust in connection with any transaction involving a merger, consolidation, business combination, purchase or disposition of the assets of any Person or any capital stock or other ownership interests of any Person (except in connection with the transactions undertaken pursuant to the terms hereof.

9.5 Submission to Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process; Arbitration.

(a) Any controversy, dispute or claim arising under or in connection with this Agreement (including, without limitation, any non-contractual right or obligation arising in connection therewith or the existence, validity, interpretation or breach hereof and any claim based on contract, tort of statute) (a “Dispute”) shall be referred to and finally resolved by a binding arbitration, to be held in London, England pursuant to the rules (“Rules”) of the London Court of International Arbitration (“LCIA”). The seat or legal place of arbitration shall be London, United Kingdom. The Rules are incorporated by reference into this Section and capitalised terms used in this Section which are not otherwise defined in this Agreement have the meaning given to them in the Rules. The arbitration shall be conducted in the English language. Each party shall bear its own expenses incurred in connection with arbitration and the fees and expenses of the arbitrators shall be shared equally by the parties involved in the dispute and advanced by them from time to time as required. It is the mutual intention and desire of the parties that a tribunal of three arbitrators be constituted as expeditiously as possible following the submission of the dispute to arbitration. The Purchaser party to the Dispute shall appoint one arbitrator, the Selling Stockholders that are party to the Dispute shall appoint one arbitrator, and one arbitrator who shall serve as chairman shall be nominated by the agreement of the arbitrators appointed by such Purchaser and Selling Stockholders. Failing such agreement within 15 days of the nomination of the party-nominated arbitrators, the arbitrator shall be nominated by the LCIA. Once such tribunal is constituted and except as may otherwise be agreed in writing by the parties involved in such dispute or as ordered by the arbitrator upon substantial justification shown, the hearing for the dispute will be held within 60 days after submission of the dispute to arbitration. The arbitrator shall render their final award within 60 days, subject to extension by the arbitrator upon substantial justification shown of extraordinary circumstances, following conclusion of the hearing and any required post-hearing briefing or other proceedings ordered by the arbitrator. The arbitrator will state the factual and legal basis for the award. The decision of the arbitrator in any such proceeding will be final and binding and not subject to judicial review and final judgment may be entered upon such an award in any court of competent jurisdiction, but entry of such judgment will not be required to make such award effective. The parties hereby irrevocably waive, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any objection which they may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such action brought in such court or any defense of inconvenient forum for the maintenance of such action. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a judgment in any such action may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. The agreement to arbitrate and this Section shall be governed by English law.

(b) Each of the Parties hereby consents to process being served by any party to this Agreement in any suit, action or proceeding by delivery of a copy thereof in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.8.

9.6 Governing Law. This Agreement (and any non-contractual rights and obligations arising in connection therewith) shall be governed by and construed in accordance with English law.

9.7 Entire Agreement; Amendments and Waivers. This Agreement (including the schedules and exhibits hereto), the Selling Stockholder Documents and the Purchaser Documents represent the entire understanding and agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and can be amended, supplemented or changed, and any provision hereof can be waived, only by written instrument making specific reference to this Agreement signed by the party against whom enforcement of any such amendment, supplement, modification or waiver is sought. No action taken pursuant to this Agreement, including any investigation by or on behalf of any party, shall be deemed to constitute a waiver by the party taking such action of compliance with any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained herein. The waiver by any party hereto of a breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a further or continuing waiver of such breach or as a waiver of any other or subsequent breach. No failure on the part of any party to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of such right, power or remedy by such party preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. All remedies hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any other remedies provided by law.

9.8 Notices.

9.11 Non-Recourse. No past, present or future director, officer, employee, incorporator, member, partner, stockholder, agent, attorney or representative of the Purchaser, the Company or the Selling Stockholders shall have any liability for any obligations or liabilities of any person under this Agreement or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, the transactions contemplated hereby.

9.12 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which will be deemed to be an original copy of this Agreement and all of which, when taken together, will be deemed to constitute one and the same agreement.

EBITDA CALCULATION AND GOVERNANCE

Earn-out

1.1

The entitlement of the Earn-Out Equity Stock shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of this Exhibit.

1.2

The 2018 NESR EBITDA shall be calculated and, if applicable, adjusted in accordance with this Exhibit.

1.3

Within 15 Business Days after the determination of the 2018 NESR EBITDA (whether by agreement of the Selling Stockholders’ Representative and NESR or in accordance with this Exhibit) the First EBITDA Earn-Out Equity Stock and/or the Second EBITDA Earn-Out Equity Stock (as applicable) shall be issued to the Selling Stockholders in the Reinvestment Proportion.

Adjustments

2.1

Without prejudice to paragraph 2.2, NESR undertakes to operate the business of the NESR Group commercially and in good faith until the Earn-Out Equity Stock (if any) is issued in full.

2.2

If during the 2018 Financial Year, any fact, matter, event or circumstance occurs outside the Ordinary Course of Business which has an impact on the 2018 NESR EBITDA, then the 2018 NESR EBITDA shall be adjusted to reflect what the entitlement of the Parties would have been if the fact, matter, event or circumstance had not occurred, provided that all revenues generated and cost synergies achieved by each member of the NESR Group (including by virtue of any asset (including shares) purchased by any member of the NESR Group during the 2018 Financial Year) shall be deemed to have been generated or achieved in the Ordinary Course of Business (and, therefore, no such revenues or reduction of costs shall be excluded from the calculation of the 2018 NESR EBITDA).
