3. Fair Market Value.
(a) “VWAP” means, for any date, the price determined by the first of the following clauses that applies: (a) if the Ordinary Shares are then listed or
quoted on a trading market, the daily volume weighted average price of the Ordinary Shares for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on the trading market on which the Ordinary Shares are then listed or quoted as reported by Bloomberg (based on a
trading day from 9:30 a.m. (New York City time) to 4:02 p.m. (New York City time)) or (b) in all other cases, the fair market value of a share of Common Stock as determined by an independent appraiser selected in good faith by the Holders, the fees
and expenses of which shall be paid by the Company. The Company shall provide its calculation of the fair market value per Ordinary Share to the Holders, which shall be equal to the VWAP determined as provided in the preceding sentence, together with
reasonable details and supporting documentation with respect to such calculation. Only with respect to the preceding clause (b), within ten (10) Business Days of the receipt of such calculation, the Holders shall have the right to provide notice to
the Company of any disagreement regarding the calculation of such fair market value (a “FMV Dispute Notice”), which FMV Dispute Notice shall, to the extent reasonably capable of calculation, include the
Holders’ calculation of the fair market value of one Ordinary Share and reasonable supporting documentation regarding the same to the extent available. Following receipt of any such FMV Dispute Notice by the Company, the Holders and the Company
shall negotiate in good faith to reach agreement regarding the fair market value of one Ordinary Share. If the Company and the Holders are unable to resolve all such disputed items within ten (10) Business Days following the Company’s receipt of the
FMV Dispute Notice, then all items that have not been resolved on a mutually agreeable basis shall be submitted to an independent valuation expert (“Designated Valuation Firm”) mutually acceptable to the
Company and the Holders for resolution, and such Designated Valuation Firm shall be instructed to issue its determination within ten (10) Business Days after the submission of such dispute thereto; provided,
that if the Company and the Holders are unable to agree on a Designated Valuation Firm within fifteen (15) Business Days following the Company’s receipt of the FMV Dispute Notice, the Designated Valuation Firm shall be designated by a majority of the
independent members of the board of directors of the Company. The determination by such Designated Valuation Firm shall be binding on the Company and the Holders. All costs and expenses relating to the work performed by the Designated Valuation
Firm shall be borne by the Holders, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand, based on the inverse of the percentage that the Designated Valuation Firm’s determination bears to the total amount of the total items in dispute as originally
submitted to the Designated Valuation Firm, which proportionate allocations shall also be determined by the Designated Valuation Firm at the time it renders its determination on the merits of the matters in dispute. For example, if the items in
dispute totaled US$1,000 and the Designated Valuation Firm awards US$600 in favor of the Company and US$400 in favor of the Holders, then sixty percent (60%) of the costs and expenses relating to the work performed by the Designated Valuation Firm
would be borne by the Holders and forty percent (40%) of such costs and expenses would be borne by the Company. Such fair market value of one Ordinary Share as finally determined pursuant to this Section 3 shall be referred to herein as the
“Fair Market Value” for purposes of this Warrant.
4. Representations and Warranties of the Company. In connection with the transactions provided for herein, the Company hereby represents and warrants to the Holders that:

affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights and to general principles of equity. The Company has authorized sufficient Ordinary Shares to allow for the exercise of this Warrant.

may become bound to issue additional Ordinary Shares or Equity Interests of any subsidiary of the Company. The issuance and sale of this Warrant and the Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrant will not obligate the Company or any
subsidiary of the Company to issue Ordinary Shares or other securities to any Person (other than the Holders). There are no outstanding securities or instruments of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company with any provision that adjusts the
exercise, conversion, exchange or reset price of such security or instrument upon an issuance of securities by the Company or any subsidiary of the Company. There are no outstanding securities or instruments of the Company or any subsidiary of the

necessary or appropriate to ensure that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of Ordinary Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant. The Company shall not take any action that would cause the number of
authorized but unissued Ordinary Shares to be less than the number of Ordinary Shares required to be reserved hereunder for issuance upon exercise of this Warrant.

however, that the Holders shall be deemed to have waived their consent rights under this clause (i) if prior to such time the investment committee of the Holders has failed to approve a subscription for Subsequent Acquired Interests
at a time when all other conditions in Article 7 of the Securities Purchase Agreement relating to such Subsequent Closing have been satisfied; (ii) for so long as the Holders collectively beneficially own equal to or greater than 10.0% of the
aggregate number of issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares calculated on a Fully-Diluted Basis (assuming for purposes of determining the numerator and the denominator in such calculation that any unvested portion of the Vested Existing Warrant Amount
has been vested), issuing Ordinary Shares in the Company (other than pursuant to the exercise of a Company Warrant) if after giving effect to such issuance the Holders would collectively beneficially own less than 10.0% of the aggregate number of
issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares, in each case, calculated on a Fully-Diluted Basis (assuming for purposes of determining the numerator and the denominator in such calculation that any unvested portion of the Vested Existing Warrant Amount has
been vested) (a “Dilutive Issuance”); provided, however, that the Holders shall be deemed to have waived their consent rights under this clause (ii) with
respect to any future Dilutive Issuance if (x) the Holders have previously provided their written consent to a Dilutive Issuance pursuant to this clause (ii) or (y) prior to such time the investment committee of the Holders has failed to
approve a subscription for Subsequent Acquired Interests at a time when all other conditions in Article 7 of the Securities Purchase Agreement relating to such Subsequent Closing have been satisfied; or (iii) amending the Company Articles in a manner
that alters any provisions of the Company Articles that would be materially adverse to the Holders in their capacity as holders of this Warrant or as Members. For purposes of the foregoing, beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with
Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder.
7. Adjustment to Number of Ordinary Shares and Exercise Price. In order to prevent dilution of the rights granted under this Warrant, the Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to
time as provided in this Section 7, and the number of Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as provided in this Section 7; provided, however, if more
than one subsection of this Section 7 is applicable to a single event, the subsection shall be applied that produces the largest adjustment and no single event shall cause an adjustment under more than one subsection of this Section 7
so as to result in duplication.
(a) Subdivision or Combination of Ordinary Shares. If the Company at any time while this Warrant remains outstanding and unexpired shall subdivide or combine its Equity Interests,
the Exercise Price shall be proportionately decreased in the case of a subdivision or increased in the case of a combination and the number of Ordinary Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable shall be correspondingly adjusted.
(b) Reclassification, Reorganization and Consolidation. In case of any reclassification, capital reorganization or change in the Equity Interests of the Company (other than as a result
of a subdivision, combination provided for in Section 7(a) above or an in-kind distribution provided for in Section 7(c) below), then, as a condition of such reclassification, reorganization or change, lawful provision shall be made,
and duly executed documents evidencing the same from the Company or its successor shall be delivered to the Holders, so that the Holders shall have the right at any time prior to the expiration of this Warrant to purchase, at a total price equal to
that payable upon the exercise of this Warrant, the kind and amount of Equity Interests and other securities or property receivable in connection with such reclassification, reorganization or change by a holder of a proportionate number and type of
securities as were purchasable as Ordinary Shares by the Holders immediately prior to such reclassification, reorganization or change. In any such case appropriate provisions shall be made with respect to the rights and interest of the Holders so
that the provisions hereof shall thereafter be applicable with respect to any Equity Interests or other securities or property deliverable upon exercise hereof, and appropriate adjustments shall be made to the Exercise Price per Ordinary Share
payable hereunder; provided, that the aggregate Exercise Price shall remain the same (subject to adjustment in accordance with this Section 7).
(c) Distributions of Ordinary Shares or Other Securities or Property. If at any time while this Warrant remains outstanding and unexpired, the holders of the Equity Interests as to
which purchase rights under this Warrant exist at the time shall have received, or, on or after the date fixed for the determination of eligible Members, shall have become entitled to receive, without payment therefor, other or additional Equity
Interests or other property (other than cash) of the Company by way of distribution, then and in each case, this Warrant shall represent the right to acquire, in addition to the number of Ordinary Shares receivable upon exercise of this Warrant, and
without payment of any additional consideration therefor, the amount of such other or additional Equity Interests or other property (other than cash) of the Company that the Holders would hold on the date of such exercise had they been the holder of
record of the Ordinary Shares receivable upon exercise of this Warrant on the Original Issue Date and had thereafter, during the period from the Original Issue Date to and including the date of such exercise, retained such Ordinary Shares and/or all
other additional Equity Interests available by it as aforesaid during such period, giving effect to all adjustments called for during such period by the provisions of this Section 7.
(d) Fractional Shares. No fractional Ordinary Shares or scrip representing fractional Ordinary Shares will be issued in connection with any exercise hereunder. In lieu of any
fractional Ordinary Shares to which the Holders would otherwise be entitled, the number of Ordinary Shares to be issued upon exercise of this Warrant shall be rounded down to the nearest whole Ordinary Share.
(e) Maximum Percentage. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Holders shall not be entitled to exercise this Warrant to the extent that such exercise would
result in the Holders together with any other “attribution parties” collectively beneficially owning in the aggregate in excess of 4.99% (the “Maximum Percentage”) of the number of Ordinary Shares in issue and
outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise; provided, however, that (i) the Maximum Percentage shall automatically increase to 9.99% if, at the time
of such exercise, the Holders, together with any other “attribution parties,” file any Securities and Exchange Commission reports required as a result of such Holders and such other “attribution parties” collectively beneficially owning in the
aggregate in excess of 4.99% of the number of Ordinary Shares in issue and outstanding and (ii) at any time, upon not less than 61 days written notice to the Company, the Holders may increase or decrease the Maximum Percentage to any other
percentage. For purposes of this Section 7(e), “attribution parties” means, the Holders, their respective affiliates and any other persons whose beneficial ownership of Ordinary Shares would be aggregated with the Holders’ for purposes of
Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
8. Transfer of Warrant.
(a) Subject to the transfer conditions referred to in the legend endorsed hereon and the other applicable terms and conditions of this Warrant, until the material breach by the Company of
this Warrant or the Company Articles (the “Warrant Holder Period”), the Holders shall not Transfer this Warrant except to their respective Affiliates, any Related Fund or holder of Equity Interests of the
Holders. Upon and following the expiration of the Warrant Holder Period, the Holders may Transfer this Warrant to any Person. Any Transfer pursuant to this Section 8 shall be implemented by delivering (by email or otherwise) this
Warrant to the Company with a duly executed and delivered instrument of Transfer, together with evidence of payment of any relevant stamp duty or transfer taxes by the Transferee. Upon such surrender of the Warrant and subject to the payment of any
relevant stamp duty or transfer taxes by the Transferee, the Company shall execute and deliver any new Warrant(s) in the names of the Transferor and permitted Transferees, as applicable, and in accordance with the denominations specified in such
instrument of Transfer, and this Warrant shall automatically be cancelled, and the Company shall register the permitted Transferees, and the permitted Transferees shall be deemed to have become, and shall be treated for all purposes as, the holders
of record of the new Warrant(s) immediately upon issuance of such new Warrant(s) to such permitted Transferees. Any Transfer in violation of this Section 8 shall be void ab initio.
(b) The Holders understand that this Warrant, and any securities issued in respect hereof or exchange herefor, will bear, for so long as is required by applicable securities laws, a legend in
substantially the form of subsection (i) and may bear the legends stated in subsection (ii):
(i) “THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED, ASSIGNED, PLEDGED
OR HYPOTHECATED EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR PURSUANT TO RULE 144 OR AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER SUCH ACT.”
(ii) Any legend required by the securities laws of any state to the extent such laws are applicable to the securities represented by the certificate or other document so
legended.
(c) Certificates or book entries evidencing title to this Warrant and any securities issued in respect hereof or exchange herefor that cease to be restricted pursuant to applicable
securities laws shall not contain any legend (including the legends set forth in Section 8(b)) and, promptly following the date on which such securities cease to be restricted pursuant to applicable securities laws, and following the delivery
by the Holders and the Holders’ broker(s) to the Company, its legal counsel and the Company’s transfer agent of customary representations and other documentation (including, for the avoidance of doubt, customary certificates and representation
letters, but not including any notarized or medallion guaranteed documents) and other representations and documentation as required by law or regulation evidencing that the applicable securities have ceased to be restricted pursuant to applicable
securities laws and that the removal of such legend may be effected under the Securities Act, the Company shall cause (i) its legal counsel to issue a customary legal opinion to the Company’s transfer agent to effect the removal of the applicable
legends on such securities and (ii) the Company’s transfer agent to deliver to the Holders such securities that are free from all restrictive and other legends by crediting the account of the Holders’ broker with the Depository Trust Company system
as directed by the Holders.
9. Replacement on Loss. In the event that the Holders notify the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant, then upon delivery of an indemnity bond or lost warrant
affidavit sufficient in the reasonable determination of the Company to protect the Company from any loss that it may suffer if the Warrant is replaced and, in case of mutilation, upon surrender of such Warrant for cancellation to the Company, the
Company shall execute and deliver to the Holders, in lieu hereof, a new Warrant of like tenor and exercisable for an equivalent number of Ordinary Shares as the Warrant so lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed and the replaced Warrant shall
automatically be cancelled; provided, that, in the case of mutilation, no indemnity bond or lost warrant affidavit shall be required if this Warrant in identifiable form is surrendered to the Company for cancellation.
10. Warrant Register. The Company shall keep and properly maintain at its executive offices records of the registration of this Warrant and any permitted and duly made transfers or exercises thereof.
The Company may deem and treat the Person in whose name this Warrant is registered in such register as the holder thereof for all purposes, and the Company shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary, except any assignment, division or other
transfer of the Warrant effected in accordance with the provisions of this Warrant.
11. Notices. All notices, requests, consents, claims, demands, waivers and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been given: (a) when delivered by hand (with
written confirmation of receipt); (b) when received by the addressee if sent by a nationally recognized overnight courier (with all fees prepaid and receipt requested); (c) on the date sent by e-mail, which e-mail shall include a subject line

12. Cumulative Remedies. The rights and remedies provided in this Warrant are cumulative and are not exclusive of, and are in addition to and not in substitution for, any other rights or remedies
available at law, in equity or otherwise.
13. Equitable Relief. Each party hereto acknowledges and agrees that a breach or threatened breach by such party of any of its obligations under this Warrant would give rise to irreparable harm to the
other party hereto for which monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy and hereby agrees that in the event of a breach or a threatened breach by such party of any such obligations, the other party hereto shall, in addition to any and all other
rights and remedies that may be available to it in respect of such breach, be entitled to equitable relief, without the need to post a bond, including a restraining order, an injunction, specific performance and any other relief that may be available
from a court of competent jurisdiction.
14. Entire Agreement. This Warrant, the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company Articles and any other documents delivered pursuant hereto or thereto in connection herewith, constitute the full and
entire understanding and agreement between the parties with regard to the subjects hereof and thereof.
15. Successor and Assigns. This Warrant and the rights and obligations evidenced hereby shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and the successors of the Company and
the permitted successors and permitted assigns of the Holders. Such permitted successors and/or permitted assigns of the Holders shall be deemed to be a “Holder” for all purposes hereunder.
16. No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Warrant is for the sole benefit of the Company and the Holders and their respective permitted successors and, in the case of the Holders, permitted assigns, and
nothing herein, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other Person any legal or equitable right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever, under or by reason of this Warrant.
17. Interpretation. For purposes of this Warrant, (a) definitions shall apply equally to the singular and plural forms of the terms defined; (b) words of any gender shall be deemed to include each
other gender and neuter forms; (c) Section headings are for convenience only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning hereof; (d) the word “including” and words of similar import shall be deemed to be followed by the phrase “without
limitation”; (e) the words “this Warrant,” “herein,” “hereof,” “hereby,” “hereunder,” and words of similar import shall refer to this Warrant as a whole, and not to any particular subdivision hereof unless expressly so limited; (f) “or” is not
exclusive; (g) unless otherwise specified or the context otherwise requires, (i) any reference to an agreement or other document means such agreement or other document as amended, restated or otherwise modified from time to time in accordance with
its terms, (ii) any reference to a Person shall be deemed to include such Person’s successors and permitted assigns, (iii) any reference to a Section, a clause or an Exhibit means a Section or a clause of, or an Exhibit to, this Warrant; and (h) any

any successor provisions). The terms “dollars” and “US$” means U.S. dollars, the lawful currency of the United States of America. Any reference in this Warrant to a “day” or a number of “days” (without explicit reference to “Business Days”) shall be

deferred until the next Business Day.
18. Amendment and Modification; Waiver. Except as otherwise provided herein, this Warrant may only be amended, modified or supplemented by an agreement in writing signed by the Company and the
Holders. No waiver by the Company or the Holders of any of the provisions hereof shall be effective unless explicitly set forth in writing and signed by the party so waiving. No waiver by any party hereto shall operate or be construed as a waiver
in respect of any failure, breach or default not expressly identified by such written waiver, whether of a similar or different character, and whether occurring before or after that waiver. No failure to exercise, or delay in exercising, any rights,
remedy, power or privilege arising from this Warrant shall operate or be construed as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the
exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege.
19. Severability. If any term or provision of this Warrant is invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other term or
provision of this Warrant or invalidate or render unenforceable such term or provision in any other jurisdiction.
20. Governing Law. This Warrant shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule
(whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of laws of any jurisdiction other than those of the State of New York.
21. Submission to Jurisdiction. Any legal suit, action or proceeding arising out of or based upon this Warrant or the transactions contemplated hereby may be instituted in the federal courts of the
United States of America or the courts of the State of New York in each case located in the City of New York, and each party hereto irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts in any such suit, action or proceeding. Service of
process, summons, notice or other document by certified or registered mail to such party’s address set forth herein shall be effective service of process for any suit, action or other proceeding brought in any such court. The parties hereto
irrevocably and unconditionally waive any objection to the laying of venue of any suit, action or any proceeding in such courts and irrevocably waive and agree not to plead or claim in any such court that any such suit, action or proceeding brought
in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.
22. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY
ARISE UNDER THIS WARRANT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES AND, THEREFORE, EACH SUCH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LEGAL ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR
RELATING TO THIS WARRANT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.
23. Counterparts. This Warrant may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall be deemed to be one and the same agreement. A signed copy of
this Warrant delivered by facsimile, e-mail or other means of electronic transmission shall be deemed to have the same legal effect as delivery of an original signed copy of this Warrant.
24. No Strict Construction. This Warrant shall be construed without regard to any presumption or rule requiring construction or interpretation against the party drafting an instrument or causing any
instrument to be drafted.
25. No Impairment. All Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall become subject to, and have the benefit of, the Company Articles and the Company shall not, by any action including by
amendment of the Company Articles or its certificate of formation or through any equity sale or issuance, recapitalization, reclassification, reorganization, merger, consolidation or other business combination, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up
or any other action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed by it hereunder, but shall at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this Warrant and in
the taking of all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to protect the rights of the Holders of this Warrant against impairment thereof.
26. Limitations on Liability. Except as expressly set forth herein (including restrictions related to transfer, compliance with securities laws and any requirements under the Company Articles), nothing
contained in this Warrant shall be construed as imposing any liabilities on the Holders with respect to the purchase of any Ordinary Shares or Equity Interests (upon exercise of this Warrant or otherwise), whether such liabilities are asserted by the
Company or by creditors of the Company.
27. Amendment and Restatement. Effective as of the date hereof, (a) this Warrant shall amend and restate in its entirety the Original Warrant, (b) this Warrant is not intended to, and shall not,
