Restatement and Amendment Agreement dated as of February 27, 2024 in respect of the Share Subscription Facility Agreement by and among RELIEF THERAPEUTICS Holding SA, GEM Global Yield LLC SCS and GEM Yield Bahamas Ltd of January 20, 2021
Whereas
A. | The Parties had concluded the Share Subscription Facility Agreement dated as of January 20, 2021 (the Agreement) and the Promissory Note of even date providing for a Fee in the amount of CHF 1,250,000. |
B. | The Commitment Period under the Agreement has expired on January 20, 2024. The Parties wish to restate and amend the Agreement and to extend the Commitment Period under the Agreement for three more years. |
C. | Further, GEMYB wishes to waive any and all of its rights under and in connection with the current outstanding Promissory Note under the Agreement as per Annex 7 (Form of Promissory Note) (the Previous Promissory Note) and replace the Previous Promissory Note in its entirety by a new Promissory Note pursuant to Annex 7 (Form of New Promissory Note) hereof (the New Promissory Note) providing for the grant by the Company of 3,350,000 warrants for subscribing an equal number of Ordinary Shares at an exercise price of CHF 1.70 to GEMYB, exercisable until January 20, 2027 (the Warrants). |
D. | However, the Parties take note and acknowledge that the Ordinary Shares are from time-to-time trading below their par value. Given that for the issuance of new Share at least their nominal value has to be paid-in, drawdowns under the Agreement are not feasible if and when the Ordinary Shares are trading below their par value. |
Now, therefore, the Parties hereto agree as follows:
1. | Definitions and References |
(a) | Capitalized terms used in this Restatement and Amendment Agreement and not defined otherwise shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Agreement. | |
(b) | References to clauses and Annexes are, save where the context otherwise requires, to clauses of and Annexes to this Restatement and Amendment Agreement. |
2. | Restatement of, and Amendments to, the Agreement |
The Parties hereby agree that the Agreement shall be restated. | |
Further, the Agreement shall hereby be amended as set out in this Section 2 (Restatement of, and Amendments to, the Agreement) and Annex 7 (Form of New Promissory Note) below. To the extent not amended by this Restatement and Amendment Agreement, the Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. |

Such registration is subject to the approval of a reduction in nominal value by the Company's shareholders at a general meeting. |
