Transfer Rights and Restrictions
Section 3.01 Tag-Along Rights.
(a) Subject to the requirements of this Article and the requirements of Article IV of the Policy Agreement and without prejudice to the obligations of the Sponsors pursuant to Section 3.02 hereof, if any of the Sponsors (each, a “Selling Shareholder”) (or any group of Selling Shareholders together) proposes to Transfer any shares in the Company or Share Equivalents which it owns, directly or indirectly, to any other Person (a “Buyer”), that would result in a Change of Control, whether in any one Transfer or a series of Transfers, each IFC Party shall have the right to participate in such Transfer or series of Transfers in accordance with this Section 3.01 (the “Tag-Along Right”); provided, however, that (i) the IFC Parties may not have such right if the proposed Transfer is implemented through a mandatory tender offer regulated under Article 198 et seq. of Law 18,045 on Securities Market, for all and any of the shares in the Company or Share Equivalents in which the IFC Parties are not restricted from tendering their shares, and (ii) each IFC Party shall be entitled to participate in any one Transfer or series of Transfers for up to 100% of such IFC Party’s ownership interest in the Company, as the case may be. For the avoidance of doubt, the Selling Shareholders may only Transfer such shares in the Company or Share Equivalents hereunder if, after giving effect to the Transfer, the Sponsors shall continue to be in compliance with the requirements of Section 3.02 (Ownership and Share Retention) or each IFC Party has provided a written waiver in respect thereof. The Selling Shareholders shall comply with the other requirements of this Article III and Article IV of the Policy Agreement, including, without limitation, Section 4.01 (Restricted Transfers) of the Policy Agreement.
(b) Each Selling Shareholder which owns shares in the Company or Share Equivalents indirectly though one or more holding companies shall ensure that any disposal of any indirect interest in any of the Sponsors or the Company, as the case may be, is consummated as a Transfer of
- 7 -
the shares in the Company or Share Equivalents, and not by a sale of any shares or share equivalents of any such holding company or holding companies, so as to ensure that each IFC Party will be able to exercise their Tag-Along Rights hereunder.
(c) The Selling Shareholders shall promptly, but in any case not later than forty-five (45) days prior to the proposed date of closing of any Transfer described in Section 3.01(a), give notice (the “Transfer Notice”) to each IFC Party. The Transfer Notice shall describe in reasonable detail the proposed Transfer, including but not limited to the number and type of shares of the Company and/or Share Equivalents proposed to be purchased by the Buyer, the consideration proposed to be paid by the Buyer, other material terms and conditions proposed by the Buyer in respect of such Transfer, and the name and address of each proposed Buyer, accompanied, if available, by a draft share purchase agreement or other information reasonably requested by any IFC Party. If any IFC Party wishes to exercise their Tag-Along Rights, it shall give notice of the exercise (a “Tag Notice”) to the Selling Shareholders within a period of thirty (30) days after such IFC Party’s receipt of the Transfer Notice (the “Exercise Period”) confirming the number of IFC Shares to be included in the proposed Transfer (each such participating IFC Party shall include in such Tag Notice all of its IFC Shares) (such shares, the “Tagged Shares”). For the avoidance of doubt, no IFC Party shall not be obligated to pay any fees or deal expenses (whether of the Selling Shareholder(s), any other Person or otherwise) in connection with the exercise of its rights under this Section 3.01.
(d) With respect to each proposed Transfer by a Selling Shareholder, each IFC Party shall have the right to transfer all, but not less than all, of the Tagged Shares. For avoidance of doubt, the number of shares to be Transferred by the Selling Shareholders to the Buyer in such transaction is reduced by the number of Tagged Shares of each IFC Party participating in such Transfer in order to accommodate all Tagged Shares in the transaction.
(e) Upon receipt of the Tag Notice, the Selling Shareholders shall make all necessary arrangements with the Buyer in order that the Tagged Shares may be included in the relevant transaction and purchased by the Buyer on the same terms and conditions (including with respect to price) as described in the Transfer Notice and at the same time as the sale of shares in the Company and Share Equivalents in the Company by such Selling Shareholders in the transaction. However, no IFC Party shall be required to make any representation or warranty to the Buyer, other than as to good title to the Tagged Shares, customary representations and warranties concerning such IFC Party’s power and authority to undertake the proposed Transfer, and the validity and enforceability of such IFC Party’s obligations in connection with the proposed Transfer.
(f) For the avoidance of doubt, the Tag-Along Right shall apply regardless of whether the Tagged Shares are of the same class or type of shares of the Company or Share Equivalents which the Selling Shareholder(s) propose to Transfer, provided that, to the extent such a difference in class or type exists, the consideration payable to the IFC Parties for the Tagged Shares shall be calculated as if all shares of the Company and Share Equivalents held by the applicable Selling Shareholders and the IFC Parties which will be subject to a Transfer under this Section 3.01 had been converted into common shares of the Company on the date immediately prior to the date of the Tag Notice (to the extent not already in the form of common shares of the Company) at the conversion price which would be applicable on such date had such conversion occurred on such date.
(g) If any IFC Party delivers a Tag Notice, the Selling Shareholders shall give such IFC Party prior written notice of the closing date of the Transfer (the “Closing Date”) at least seven (7) Business Days prior to Closing Date for the purchase by the Buyer of the Tagged Shares upon the terms and conditions (including with respect to price) as specified in the Transfer Notice and at the same time as the Selling Shareholders. If the Selling Shareholders do not complete the Transfer for
- 8 -
any reason within ninety (90) days of the expiration of the Exercise Period, any proposed subsequent Transfer by them of some or all of the shares and/or Share Equivalents originally proposed to be Transferred shall again be subject to the provisions of this Section 3.01.
(h) The Selling Shareholders agree that they shall not Transfer any of their shares in the Company or Share Equivalents to a Buyer unless, at the same time, the Buyer purchases all of the Tagged Shares from the applicable IFC Party(ies) upon the terms and conditions (including with respect to price) as specified in the Transfer Notice, unless, prior to or simultaneously with such Transfer, any of the Selling Shareholders acquire the Tagged Shares from the applicable IFC Party(ies).
Section 3.02 Ownership and Share Retention.
(a) No Sponsors shall Transfer any shares of the Company or Share Equivalents unless, following such Transfer, the Sponsors shall remain in compliance with this Article III.
Section 3.03 Restricted Transfers.
(a) As long as any of the IFC Parties is a shareholder in the Company or holds Share Equivalents, none of the Saieh Parties or the Sponsors shall Transfer any shares in the Sponsors or the Company, as the case may be, or Share Equivalents to, or pledge, hypothecate, create a security interest in or Lien on, place in trust (voting or otherwise), or in any other way subject any such shares or Share Equivalents to any encumbrance in favor of, any of the individuals or entities named on (i) lists promulgated by the United Nations Security Council or its committees pursuant to resolutions issued under Chapter VII of the United Nations Charter; or (ii) the World Bank Listing of Ineligible Firms (see xxx.xxxxxxxxx.xxx/xxxxxx).
