Drag-Along Rights (a) If, at any time prior to a Qualified IPO, any Investor (the “Drag-Along Seller”) secures an irrevocable offer to acquire all share capital or assets of the Company (a “Drag-Along Sale”) with a valuation of the Company of more than US$600,000,000 with any Person (such Person, a “Drag-Along Purchaser”) upon such terms and conditions as agreed to with the Drag-Along Seller, and such Drag-Along Sale is agreed by a majority vote of the other Investors and a majority vote of the Founders, each other Investor (an “Other Investor”) agrees, at the request of the Drag-Along Seller, to participate in such Drag-Along Sale as set forth in this Section 9.1.
(b) If the Drag-Along Sale is structured as a sale of Shares, each Other Investor shall sell to the Drag-Along Purchaser all Shares then held by such Other Investor on the same terms and conditions as are applicable to the Drag-Along Seller, including the same per-share consideration with respect to a specific class of Shares, and shall execute the necessary transfer forms in favor of the Drag-Along Purchaser; provided that the proceeds from such sale of any Round C Investors shall not be less than the higher of (i) the Series A Liquidation Amount (as defined in the Memorandum and Articles) or (ii) the purchase price as stated in the offer of the Drag-Along Purchaser pro rata based on the number of Ordinary Shares held by such Round C Investors (on an as-converted basis); provided, further, that except with respect to any liability incurred by such Other Investor individually, such Other Investor shall not be liable to a Drag-Along Purchaser for an amount greater than the proceeds from such sale.
(c) If the Drag-Along Sale is structured as a merger, amalgamation or scheme of arrangement of the Company or other transaction that requires the approval of the Investors, each Investor shall vote its respective Shares (or execute and deliver any written consents in lieu thereof) in favor of any Drag-Along Sale and all actions deemed reasonably necessary by the Drag-Along Seller in connection with the Drag-Along Sale, and against any action or proposal that may prevent, hinder or impede the consummation of the Drag-Along Sale.
(d) The Drag-Along Seller shall provide written notice of a proposed Drag-Along Sale to the Other Investors (a “Drag-Along Sale Notice”) not later than ten (10) days prior to such proposed Drag-Along Sale. The Drag-Along Sale Notice shall identify the Drag-Along Purchaser, the per-Ordinary Share consideration for which a transfer is proposed to be made (the “Drag-Along Sale Price”) and all other material terms and conditions of the Drag-Along Sale. Each Other Investor shall be required to participate in the Drag-Along Sale on the terms and conditions set forth in the Drag-Along Sale Notice and to tender its Shares. The price and form of consideration payable in such transfer shall be the Drag-Along Sale Price.
(e) The Drag-Along Seller shall have a period of 180 days from the date of receipt of the Drag-Along Sale Notice to enter into a definitive agreement providing for the Drag-Along Sale on the terms and conditions set forth in such Drag-Along Sale Notice, which Drag-Along Sale shall be promptly consummated, subject to fulfilling any closing conditions and obtaining any required regulatory approvals. If the Drag-Along Seller has not entered into a definitive agreement providing for the Drag-Along Sale within such 180-day period and the Drag-Along Seller proposes to effect a Drag-Along Sale after such 180-day period, the Drag-Along Seller shall again comply with the procedures set forth in this Section 9.1(e).
(f) In connection with a Drag-Along Sale, each Other Investor shall (i) make such representations, warranties and covenants and enter into such definitive agreements as are customary for transactions of the nature of the Drag-Along Sale, (ii) benefit from and be subject to all of the same provisions of the definitive agreements as are applicable to the Drag-Along Seller, (iii) be required to bear its proportionate share of any escrows, holdbacks or adjustments in respect of the purchase price or indemnification obligations; provided that an Other Investor shall only be obligated to indemnify any other Person in connection with such Drag-Along Sale severally; provided, further, that no Other Investor shall be obligated to indemnify any other shareholder for any breach or misrepresentation by such other shareholder with respect to title in such other shareholder’s equity securities, (iv) be required to bear its proportionate share of the costs and expenses incurred by the Company and the Investors in connection with the proposed transaction (whether or not consummated), including all attorney’s fees and charges, all accounting fees and charges and all finders, brokerage or investment banking fees, charges or commissions (including, if requested by the Drag-Along Seller, an investment banking firm selected by the Drag-Along Seller and engaged, on customary terms (including customary indemnification from the Company)), to the extent not paid by the Company, and (v) to the extent permitted by applicable Law, not exercise any dissenters’ or appraisal rights to which they may be entitled in connection with a Drag-Along Sale.
Drag Along Right Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, if any Holder has not exercised its Tag-Along Right with respect to the maximum number of Holder’s Shares for which such Holder is permitted (pursuant to Section 2(b)(ii)(B) above) to exercise such Tag-Along Right in respect of a Third Party Sale, then, upon the demand of any Selling Fortress Entity participating in such Third Party Sale (in each such entity’s sole discretion), such Holder shall sell to the respective Third Party the number of whole Holder’s Shares (rounded upwards or downwards, as applicable), whether or not the restrictions on Transfer of Common Stock have lapsed, equal to the product of (x) the total number of Holder’s Shares held by such Holder on the date of the Drag-Along Notice (as defined below) and (y) the Third Party Sale Percentage, at the same price and on the same terms and conditions as such Selling Fortress Entity has agreed to with such Third Party; provided, however, that each such Holder shall not be permitted to sell any unvested Holder’s Shares (provided that the Company may, in its sole discretion, accelerate the vesting of any unvested Holder’s Shares); provided further that such Selling Fortress Entity shall use its reasonable, good faith efforts to provide that (A) the only representation and warranty which such Holder shall be required to make in connection with the Third Party Sale is a representation and warranty with respect to such Holder’s own ownership of the Holder’s Shares to be sold by it and its ability to convey title thereto free and clear of liens, encumbrances and adverse claims and (B) the liability of such Holder with respect to any representation and warranty made in connection with the Third Party Sale is the several liability of such Holder (and not joint with any other person) and that such liability is limited to the amount of proceeds actually received by such Holder in the Third Party Sale; provided further, that a Holder shall not be obligated to participate in any Third Party Sale pursuant to this Section 2(b)(iii) unless such Holder is provided an opinion of counsel to the effect that the Third Party Sale is not in violation of applicable federal and state securities or other laws or, if such Holder is not provided with an opinion with respect to the matters contemplated by this proviso, each Selling Fortress Entity who has delivered a Drag-Along Notice to such Holder shall indemnify such Holder for any such violation. If the Third Party Sale is in the form of a merger transaction, each Holder agrees to vote its Holder’s Shares in favor of such merger and not to exercise any rights of appraisal or dissent afforded under applicable law.
Tag-Along Rights (a) If, at any time or from time to time prior to a Qualifying Public Equity Offering, Sponsor or any of its Affiliates (the "Sponsor Transferor") proposes to Transfer any shares of Common Stock to a Person (the "Purchaser"), other than pursuant to Section 3.02(a), 3.02(d), 5.01 or 5.02 or in a circumstance where all of the shares owned by all of the Shareholders are being purchased pursuant to Section 4.03, the Sponsor Transferor shall give written notice (a "Transfer Notice") of such proposed Transfer to the Shareholders at least fifteen (15) days prior to the consummation of such proposed Transfer, setting forth (A) the total number of shares of Common Stock offered to be Transferred to Purchaser, (B) the consideration to be received for such shares of Common Stock by the Sponsor Transferor, (C) the identity of the Purchaser(s), (D) any other material terms and conditions of the proposed Transfer, (E) the expected date of the proposed Transfer and (F) that each such Shareholder shall have the right (the "Tag-Along Right") to elect to sell up to its Pro Rata Portion of such shares of Common Stock to be Transferred to Purchaser. If any portion of the consideration contained in the Transfer Notice includes consideration other than cash, the Sponsor Transferor shall provide the Shareholders with a summary of a valuation study, if any, that the Sponsor Transferor has prepared concerning such consideration, but the Sponsor Transferor shall have no liability to any Shareholder with respect to any such summary or study and no obligation to undertake any such valuation. Notwithstanding the first sentence of this Section 4.02(a), a Shareholder will have a Tag-Along Right in connection with Transfers of shares of Common Stock by the Sponsor Transferor to a Permitted Transferee (other than an Affiliate of the Sponsor Transferor) when the Sponsor Transferor Transfers shares of Common Stock to such Person at a price per share (as adjusted for Adjustments) that is greater than the price per share (as adjusted for Adjustments) paid for such shares by the Sponsor Transferor.
(b) Upon delivery of a Transfer Notice, each Shareholder has the option, but not the obligation, to sell up to the Pro Rata Portion of its shares of Common Stock at the same price per share of Common Stock and pursuant to the same terms and conditions with respect to payment for the shares of Common Stock as agreed to by the Sponsor Transferor, by sending written notice to the Sponsor Transferor within ten (10) days of the date of the Transfer Notice, indicating its election to sell up to the Pro Rata Portion of its shares of Common Stock in the same transaction. To the extent that elections pursuant to this Section 4.02(b) are not made with respect to any shares of Common Stock included in a Transfer Notice within such 10-day period, then the Sponsor Transferor shall re-offer to Shareholders who have elected to sell their Pro Rata Portion (the "Tag-Along Shareholders") for one additional three day period, the right to sell such additional number of shares as will result in the Tag-Along Shareholders being able to sell their pro rata share of such remaining shares of Common Stock, based upon all the shares of Common Stock being sold by all the Tag Along Shareholders (not including the remaining shares). For a sixty (60) day period following such ten (10) day period (which period may be extended an additional thirty (30) days in order to satisfy the Conditions), each Tag-Along Shareholder shall be permitted to sell to the Purchaser(s) on the terms and conditions set forth in the Transfer Notice that amount of its shares of Common Stock as to which it has made its election and the Sponsor Transferor shall be permitted to concurrently sell the balance of the shares of Common Stock that are the subject of the Transfer Notice that are not sold by the Tag-Along Shareholders.
(c) The provisions of Section 4.02(a) and (b) shall not apply to any Transfer or series of Transfers by Sponsor of shares of Common Stock to one or more Persons other than Permitted Transferees which in the aggregate do not exceed ten percent (10%) of such shares of Common Stock owned by Sponsor immediately following the Transactions.
(d) Each Tag-Along Shareholder shall not be required to make representations and warranties in connection with such sale other than customary representations and warranties with respect to (i) such Shareholder's due organization, power and authority, (ii) such Shareholder's ownership of the shares of Common Stock and ability to freely convey such shares of Common Stock without liens or encumbrances, (iii) customary representations regarding non-contravention of such Shareholder's charter, bylaws or other organizational documents or material agreements of such Tag-Along Shareholder and (iv) the enforceable nature of such Tag-Along Shareholder's obligations under the documents for such sale to which it is a party (collectively, the "Shareholder Representations"). No Tag-Along Shareholder shall be liable in respect of any indemnification provided in connection with a Tag-Along Sale (with respect to such Shareholder's Shareholder Representations) in excess of the consideration received by such Tag-Along Shareholder in such Tag-Along Sale and no Tag-Along Shareholder shall be required to participate in any escrow relating to such Tag-Along Sale in excess of such Tag-Along Shareholder's participation in the Tag-Along Sale.
(e) In the event that no Shareholder elects to sell shares of Common Stock pursuant to this Section 4.02, Sponsor and/or its Affiliates (as the case may be) shall have the right for a period of seventy-five (75) days (which period may be extended by an additional thirty (30) days to satisfy the Conditions) after the expiration of the 10-day period referred to in Section 4.02(b) to Transfer the Shares subject to the Transfer Notice to the Purchaser at a price not greater than the price contained in, and otherwise on terms and conditions no more favorable to Sponsor and/or such Affiliates than those set forth in, the Transfer Notice; it being agreed that, after the end of the 75-day period referred to in this Section 4.02(e) (including any permitted extension thereof), Sponsor and/or such Affiliates will not effect any transaction in any shares of Common Stock that are the subject of the Transfer Notice without commencing de novo the procedures set forth in this Section 4.02.
Tag-Along Right (a) If, at any time prior to a Qualified IPO, one or more Sponsor Members propose to Transfer, in a single transaction or a series of related transactions, a number of Units representing at least 30% of the Sponsor Members' aggregate Initial Equity Stakes (as defined in the LLC Agreement) to any Person (other than a Transfer to a Permitted Transferee (as defined in the LLC Agreement) of any such Sponsor Member and other than a Transfer in accordance with the Registration Rights Agreement and other than to another Sponsor Member) (a "Tag-Along Purchaser"), then, unless such transferring Sponsor Member(s) are entitled to give and do give a Drag-Along Sale Notice (as defined in the LLC Agreement) and no other Sponsor Member(s) has elected to purchase its pro rata share of such Units pursuant to Section 2.04(a) of the Sponsor Agreement, the Company shall first provide written notice to each of the Management Members, which notice (the "Tag-Along Notice") shall state: (i) the maximum number of Units proposed to be Transferred (the "Tag-Along Securities"); (ii) the purchase price per Unit (the "Tag-Along Price") for the Tag-Along Securities and (iii) any other material terms and conditions of such sale, including the proposed transfer date (which date will be within 60 business days after the termination of the Election Period (defined below), subject to extension for any required regulatory approvals). Each of the Management Members that has been provided with the Tag-Along Notice (each, a "Tag-Along Manager") shall have the right to sell to such Tag-Along Purchaser, upon the terms set forth in the Tag-Along Notice, up to the aggregate number of Units which are held by such Tag-Along Manager multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the aggregate number of Units proposed to be sold by the transferring Sponsor Member as reflected in the Tag-Along Notice and the denominator of which is the total number of Units which are held by the transferring Sponsor Member. If the number of Units elected to be sold by the Tag-Along Managers and any other individuals identified from time to time on Exhibit A to the LLC Agreement, the transferring Sponsor Member and any other Sponsor Members electing to participate in such sale is greater than the number of Tag-Along Securities specified in the Tag-Along Notice, the number of Units being sold by each such seller shall be reduced such that the applicable seller shall be entitled to (and obligated to) sell only their pro rata share of Units (based on the aggregate number of Units held by such seller to the total number of Units held by all of such electing sellers). The transferring Sponsor Member(s), the Sponsor Members electing to participate in such sale and the Tag-Along Manager(s) exercising their rights pursuant to this Section 2.04 shall effect the sale of the Tag-Along Securities, and such Tag-Along Manager(s) shall sell the number of Tag-Along Securities required to be sold by such Tag-Along Manager(s) pursuant to this Section 2.04(a) within 60 business days after the expiration of the Election Period, subject to extension for any required regulatory approvals.
(b) The tag-along rights provided by this Section 2.04 must be exercised by any Tag-Along Manager wishing to sell its Units within 10 business days following the date of delivery of the Tag-Along Notice (the "Election Period"), by delivery of a written notice to the Company indicating such Tag-Along Manager's wish to irrevocably exercise its rights and specifying the number of Units (up to the maximum number of Units owned by such Tag-Along Manager requested to be purchased by such Tag-Along Purchaser) it wishes to sell; provided that any Tag-Along Manager may waive its rights under this Section 2.04 prior to the expiration of such 10-business day period by giving written notice to the Company, which will be distributed by the Company to the transferring Sponsor Member(s). The failure of a Tag-Along Manager to respond within such 10-business day period shall be deemed to be a waiver of such Tag-Along Manager's rights under this Section 2.04.
(c) In connection with any sale pursuant to this Section 2.04, each Tag-Along Manager shall make to the Tag-Along Purchaser the same representations, warranties, covenants, indemnities and agreements as the transferring Sponsor Member(s) makes in connection with the proposed transfer (except that in the case of representations, warranties, covenants, indemnities and agreements pertaining specifically to the transferring Sponsor Member(s), a Tag-Along Manager shall make the comparable representations, warranties, covenants, indemnities and agreements); provided that all representations, warranties and indemnities shall be made by the transferring Sponsor Member(s) and such Tag-Along Manager severally and not jointly and that the liability of the transferring Sponsor Member(s) and such Tag-Along Manager thereunder shall be borne by each of them on a pro rata basis. The Tag-Along Managers shall receive the same type and amount of consideration (and rights) per Unit as is paid or delivered to the transferring Sponsor Member(s) in the sale pursuant to Section 2.04(a).
(d) No Transfer of any Unit pursuant to this Section 2.04 shall be effective unless and until the applicable transferee agrees to be bound by all of the terms and conditions of the LLC Agreement.
Transfer of Optioned Interests For each exercise of the Equity Interest Purchase Option:
1.4.1 Party B shall cause Party C to promptly convene a shareholders’ meeting, at which a resolution shall be adopted approving Party B’s transfer of the Optioned Interests to Party A and/or the Designee(s);

For the purpose of this Section and this Agreement, “security interests” shall include securities, mortgages, third party’s rights or interests, any stock options, acquisition right, right of first refusal, right to offset, ownership retention or other security arrangements, but shall be deemed to exclude any security interest created by this Agreement, Party B’s Equity Interest Pledge Agreement and Party B’s Power of Attorney. “Party B’s Equity Interest Pledge Agreement” as used in this Agreement shall refer to the Interest Pledge Agreement executed by and among Party A, Party B and Party C on the date hereof and any modification, amendment and restatement thereto. “Party B’s Power of Attorney” as used in this Agreement shall refer to the Power of Attorney executed by Party B on the date hereof granting Party A with power of attorney and any modification, amendment and restatement thereto.
