The Right shall be exercisable by each such Co-Investor for the same price and upon the same terms and conditions (including in the event such Securities are issued as a unit with other Securities, the purchase of such other Securities) as the Securities issued in such Issuance to the New Subscriber.

(b) Procedure. The Company shall cause to be given to each Co-Investor at least twenty (20) days prior to a proposed Issuance a written notice setting forth the consideration that the Company intends to receive and the terms and conditions upon which the Securities shall be issued (the “Preemptive Notice”). After receiving a Preemptive Notice, a Co-Investor that desires to exercise its Right must give notice to the Company in writing, within twenty (20) days after the date that such Preemptive Notice is deemed given pursuant to Section 23, indicating the number of Securities of each class or type (such number not to exceed the aggregate number of Securities of such class or type proposed to be issued in such Issuance, multiplied by the Co-Investor’s Pro Rata Percentage) for which the Co-Investor desires to subscribe (the “Preemptive Reply”). The closing of the subscription pursuant to a Preemptive Reply shall occur no earlier than eight (8) days and no later than thirty (30) days after delivery of the Preemptive Reply pursuant to Section 23. If any Co-Investor fails to deliver a Preemptive Reply in accordance with this Section 7(b), such Co-Investor’s pro rata share of the Issuance may thereafter, for a period not exceeding ninety (90) days following the expiration of such ten (10) day period, be issued on terms and conditions no less favorable and at a price not less than the price set forth in the Preemptive Notice. Any such Securities not issued during such ninety (90) day period shall thereafter be subject again to the preemptive rights provided for in this Section 7.

(c) Emergency Equity Offering. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, the Articles or any terms and conditions attaching to any Securities, in the event that the Lux Sarl determines in good faith that it is in the best interests of the Company or its Subsidiaries that an Issuance otherwise subject to this Section 7 be conducted on an accelerated basis due to cash or liquidity requirements (including, but not limited to, a prospective breach of a liquidity covenant) or other business considerations of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (an “Emergency Equity Offering”), then such Issuance may be completed otherwise than in compliance with the procedures set forth in this Section 7; provided that the purchaser(s) of the Securities offered pursuant to the Emergency Equity Offering shall (x) be required to promptly, and in any event not later than 90 days after the date of completion of such Emergency Equity Offering, offer to sell to the Co-Investors such portions of the Issuance as each such Co-Investor would have been entitled to subscribe for had such Issuance been effected through an offering subject to the preemptive rights set forth above in Sections 7(a) and 7(b), at the price and on the other terms thereof and (y) not exercise any voting rights attributable to such Securities until the earlier of (i) completion of the secondary sales, if any, to Co-Investors pursuant to this Section 7(c), and (ii) 30 days following delivery of the offer contemplated in this Section 7(c).

(d) Waiver of Statutory Rights. Without prejudice to the Right hereunder, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, each Securityholder hereby waives any and all pre-emptive and preferential subscription rights otherwise provided by applicable law in connection with any issuance of Securities that have been validly authorized and effected in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(e) Termination. The provisions of this Section 7 as they apply to Issuances shall cease to apply on consummation of a Public Offering of a Co-Investor’s Securities pursuant to Section 8 below.

8. Public Offering

(a) By the Company. If at any time the Lux Sarl approves a Public Offering, each Securityholder shall vote for and consent to (to the extent it has any voting or consent right) and raise no objections against such Public Offering and each Securityholder shall take all reasonable actions in connection with the consummation of such Public Offering, in each case only if requested by the Lux Sarl and consistent with current market practice at the time of such Public Offering (including, without limitation, those actions described in Section 8(c) below).

(b) Reorganization. In connection with any Public Offering subject to this Section 8, and only to the extent requested by the Lux Sarl pursuant to Section 8(a) above, each Securityholder shall agree to effectuate such Public Offering as follows:

(i) If the public company vehicle (“Newco”) is to be a Luxembourg entity, the Company shall be converted into a société anonyme (public company with limited liability or S.A.) under the laws of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, and the Securities then held by Securityholders will be reclassified as described below into the securities of Newco to be offered in such Public Offering; or

(ii) If the Lux Sarl and the managing underwriters agree that it will be more beneficial to effect the Public Offering using a Newco or another Group Company organized under the laws of another jurisdiction, the Company shall form or, if applicable, reorganize or recapitalize such entity, and the Securityholders shall, if requested by the Lux Sarl, contribute all of their Securities to such Newco or Group Company in exchange for common shares in Newco or the relevant Group Company; provided, however, if any Securities other than shares are to be paid off in cash in connection with the Public Offering, then, if the Lux Sarl shall request, such Securities shall be contributed in exchange for such other securities in Newco or the relevant Group Company to achieve a tax efficient result as determined by the Lux Sarl provided further that, without limiting the foregoing the Company shall use its commercially reasonable endeavours to agree a mutually acceptable tax efficient structure for all Securityholders.

The Newco Common issued to Securityholders shall be allocated among such holders so that, immediately after such exchange, each Securityholder holds Newco Common having an aggregate value (based on the Public Offering price to the public) equal to the amount which such Securityholder would have received if, immediately prior to such exchange, the Company had distributed to such Securityholder an aggregate amount equal to the Implicit Pre-IPO Value of the Newco Common in a complete liquidation pursuant to the rights and preferences set out in the Articles and the terms and conditions attaching to the outstanding Securities immediately prior to such exchange. Newco Common shall be

allocated among the Securityholders as determined by the rights and preferences set out in the Company’s Articles and the terms and conditions attaching to the outstanding Securities immediately prior to the exchange.

(c) Cooperation. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 8, the Company and each Securityholder, agrees that it shall assist and cooperate with the other Securityholders and the Lux Sarl in doing all things necessary, proper or advisable to consummate and make effective, in the most expeditious manner practicable, any Public Offering and shall use reasonable efforts, in their capacity as securityholders of the Company, to maximize the aggregate offering proceeds. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 8, Newco, the Company and its Subsidiaries and each Securityholder agrees that it shall not take any actions inconsistent with the procedures set out in this Section 8 or Section 9 that would otherwise undermine the process for a Public Offering undertaken in accordance with this Section 8. The Securityholders agree that the Lux Sarl may carry out or change the form of the reorganization contemplated in Section 8(b) so as to maximize the aggregate tax efficiencies associated with such reorganization, taking into account and using commercially reasonable efforts to protect the tax position of all the Securityholders; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing and for the avoidance of doubt, any such reorganization may negatively affect the tax position of individual Securityholders provided further that, without limiting the foregoing the Company shall use its commercially reasonable endeavours to agree a mutually acceptable tax efficient structure for such individual Securityholders. Furthermore, the parties agree that, in the event that any prospective Public Offering is not consummated, and the Lux Sarl shall so elect, they will assist and cooperate with all other Securityholders and the Lux Sarl in doing all things necessary to reverse as expeditiously as reasonably practicable any reorganization of the Company and its Subsidiaries and, to the extent reasonably practicable, to return the Company and Subsidiaries to their corporate forms and capitalization prior to any reorganization or recapitalization.

(d) Waiver. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Co-Investor hereby waives any dissenter’s rights, appraisal rights or similar rights in connection with any recapitalization, reorganization and/or exchange pursuant to this Section 8.

9. Holdback

(a) Prior to a Public Offering, Lux Sarl, the Company and each Investor shall enter into an agreement with respect to various matters regarding such Public Offering and the rights and obligations of Lux Sarl, the Company and each Investor in connection therewith, including lock-ups (as contemplated below) and provisions designed to result in an orderly disposition of securities by the Investors, in each case as determined by the Board of Directors in good faith. Each Co-Investor agrees not to offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, any Securities or any equity or debt securities of a Newco or a Group Company, or enter into a transaction which would have the same effect, or enter into any swap, hedge or other arrangement that transfers, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of such securities, whether any such aforementioned transaction is to be settled by delivery of such securities or other securities, in cash or otherwise, or publicly disclose the intention to make any such offer, sale, pledge or disposition, or to enter into any such transaction, swap, hedge or other arrangement, in each case during the seven days before and the 180-day period beginning on the effective date of any underwritten Public Offering (or such shorter period as may be requested in writing by the Lux Sarl) (the “Market Standoff Period”), except as part of such underwritten registration if otherwise permitted. In addition, each Co-Investor agrees to execute any further letters, agreements and/or other documents reasonably requested by the Lux Sarl or the Company’s or Newco’s underwriters which are consistent with current market practice at the time and the terms of this Section 9. The Company may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to securities subject to the foregoing restrictions until the end of the relevant Market Standoff Period. The restrictions on the Transfer of Securities set forth in this Agreement shall continue with respect to each Security until the date on which such Security has been transferred in a Public Sale or pursuant to Sections 5 or Section 6.

10. Solvent Reorganisation Without prejudice to the other provisions of this Agreement, the Board of Directors shall be authorized, taking into account the tax consequences for the Co-Investors, to cause a Solvent Reorganization at any time and for any reason (including, but not limited to, in connection with a Public Sale, a Transfer pursuant to Section 5 or Section 6 or any consolidation, merger or other transaction in which the Company is not the surviving entity or which results in the acquisition of all or substantially all of the Company’s outstanding Securities by a single Person or by a group of Persons acting in concert). In the event of any Solvent Reorganization, each Party hereto shall take all necessary and advisable steps to facilitate and effectuate such transaction, as determined by the Board of Directors in light of relevant business, marketability and taxation concerns, including by voting or executing a written consent to approve such transaction, raising no objection to such transaction, refraining from the exercise of any statutory or other legal rights that may inhibit the full implementation of such transaction (including any statutory dissenter’s rights or rights to fair value), and generally cooperating as Securityholders so that the transaction may be implemented as rapidly and efficiently as possible. In furtherance of the foregoing, each Party hereto hereby waives and undertakes to take any action necessary in the future to waive any dissenter’s rights, appraisal rights or similar rights in connection with any valid Solvent Reorganization undertaken in accordance with this Section 10. In the event that Securities are exchanged or converted or new Securities are issued in a Solvent Reorganization, the definitions and other provisions of this Agreement shall be automatically amended to reflect such exchange, conversion or issuance, as determined in the discretion of the Board of Directors, acting in good faith, with notice of any such amendments provided to the parties hereto in accordance with Section 23.

11. Non-compete / Non-solicit Each Co-Investor undertakes to the Lux Sarl, the Company and the Xxxx Investors (for their benefit and the benefit of each member of the Group) that it will not (and it will procure that its Affiliates do not), either alone or in conjunction with or on behalf of any other person, do any of the following things:

(a) for so long as a Co-Investor holds any Security:

(i) directly or indirectly carry on, be engaged or be economically interested in any business that is of the same, or is likely to be in competition with, the business of any Group Company as carried on at the date of this Agreement within the territories where the Subsidiaries render their services;

(ii) in competition with the business of any Group Company or the Group as carried on at the date of this Agreement, canvass or solicit the custom of any person, firm or company that has within two years prior to Closing been a regular customer or supplier of any Group Company in relation to the business of the Group;

(iii) solicit, hire or entice away from the employment of any Group Company any Senior Employee; or

(iv) assist any other person to do any of the foregoing things;

(b) make any public derogatory statements or comments in relation to, or otherwise publically disparage, any Group Company or any shareholder, investor, director, officer or employee of any Group Company.

The undertakings in Section 11 do not prohibit any Co-Investor or any of its Affiliates from: (a) holding or being interested in up to 5% of the outstanding issued share capital of a company listed on an internationally recognized stock exchange or in any other company which does not compete in the current territories where the members of the Group operate.

Each Group Company may enforce the terms of Section 11 as if it were a party hereto subject to and in accordance with the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Xxx 0000, provided that this Agreement may be varied or rescinded without the consent of those persons and none of those persons shall be entitled to assign any of their rights under this Section 11.

12. Information The Xxxx Investors shall be entitled to receive: (a) quarterly financial statements (to the extent produced in respect of any member of the Group); (b) audited annual financial statements of the Group, (c) Board of Directors information packages and (d) if so requested by the Xxxx Investors, the Company shall make available to Xxxx and its professional advisors on a semi-annual basis the officers, employees, attorneys, independent accountants and other advisors of the Group to discuss the business and conditions (financial or otherwise) of the Business or any other matters affecting the Group that are of interest to the Xxxx Investors, in each case at reasonable times and upon reasonable notice.

13. Corporate Opportunities In the event that any Xxxx Investor or its Affiliate has knowledge of a potential transaction or matter that may be a corporate opportunity for the Group, such Xxxx Investor or its Affiliate shall not have any duty (contractual or otherwise) to communicate or present such corporate opportunity to the Board of the Directors or the Group, and, notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, neither a Xxxx Investor nor any of its Affiliates or any individual associated with any Xxxx Investor or its Affiliates shall be liable to the Group for breach of any duty (contractual or otherwise) by reason of the fact that any Xxxx Investor or its Affiliates directly or indirectly pursues or acquires such opportunity for itself, directs such opportunity to another Person, or does not present such opportunity to the Board of Directors or the Group.

14. Fee Agreements. The parties acknowledge and agree that the Xxxx Investors and/or any of their Affiliates shall be entitled to receive and retain all amounts payable to such Persons under the terms of the Fee Agreements.

15. Effectuating the Intent of the Investors Each Investor shall (i) vote its Securities and take all other action in its power and authority as a securityholder of the Lux Sarl and/or of the Company (as applicable) and (ii) if applicable, instruct those directors and members of any committees designated by such Investor to, and replace any such director or committee member that does not, exercise their voting rights on each such body in a manner consistent with the rights and obligations of the Investors under this Agreement so as to effectuate and preserve the intent of the Investors as set out herein.

16. Amendment and Waiver The provisions of this Agreement may be amended, modified or waived only with the prior written consent of the Xxxx Investors, the Lux Sarl, the Company and the Co-Investor Representative. No course of dealing or the failure of any party to enforce any of the provisions of this Agreement shall in any way operate as a waiver of such provisions and shall not affect the right of such party thereafter to enforce each and every provision of this Agreement in accordance with its terms. The provisions of this Section 16 shall remain unaffected by any amendment, modification or waiver of this Agreement.

17. Severability Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable law or rule in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect the validity, legality or

enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement in such jurisdiction or affect the validity, legality or enforceability of any provision in any other jurisdiction, but this Agreement shall be reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein.

18. Delegation of Authority. Except as otherwise provided therein, each Co-Investor to the extent legally permitted hereby grants an irrevocable power of attorney in the form set out in Schedule 3, in favour of Lux Sarl (the “Attorney”), to enable the Attorney to execute, acknowledge, verify, swear to, deliver, record and file, in his or her name, all instruments, documents and certificates which may be (i) necessary to effect any mandatory transfers or exchanges of the Co-Investor’s Securities, if such mandatory transfers or exchanges are required pursuant to Section 6, Section 8 or Section 10 of this Agreement or the Articles (“Relevant Provisions”) or (ii) determined by such Attorney to be necessary or appropriate in connection with the Relevant Provisions, save that, such power of the Attorney shall not be exercised without the prior written consent of the relevant Co-Investor, if the exercise of such powers (x) adversely affects the rights of such Co-Investor under this Agreement and/or the Articles, or (y) extends or increases any financial obligation or liability to which such Co-Investor may be subject, in his/her capacity as a holder of such Securities. If any Co-Investor is not legally able to provide such irrevocable power of attorney, such Co-Investor shall, immediately following the written request of Lux Sarl, grant a power of attorney substantially in the form set out in Schedule 3.

19. Entire Agreement Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein, and save in the case of fraud, this Agreement and the Articles and any other terms and conditions attaching to the Securities to be issued to the Investors pursuant to Section 2 and the documents referred to herein and therein embody the complete agreement and understanding among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes and preempts any prior understandings, agreements or representations by or among the parties, written or oral, which may have related to the subject matter hereof in any way.

20. Successors and Assigns Except as otherwise provided herein, this Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by (i) the Company and the Lux Sarl and their respective permitted successors and assigns, (ii) the Co-Investors and the respective permitted successors and assigns of each of them, so long as they hold Securities, and (iii) the Xxxx Investors and the respective permitted successors and assigns of each of them, so long as they hold Securities.

21. Counterparts This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which shall be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

22. Remedies Any Person having rights under any provision of this Agreement shall be entitled to enforce their rights under this Agreement specifically, to recover damages by reason of any breach of any provision of this Agreement and to exercise all other rights existing in their favor. The parties hereto agree and acknowledge that money damages would not be an adequate remedy for any breach of the provisions of this Agreement and that the Company, the Lux Sarl, any Investor may in its sole discretion apply for specific performance and/or injunctive relief (without posting a bond or other security) in order to enforce or prevent any violation of the provisions of this Agreement.

23. Notices All notices, demands or other communications to be given or delivered under or by reason of the provisions of this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been received (a) when delivered personally to the recipient, (b) when telecopied to the recipient (with hard copy sent to the recipient by internationally reputable overnight courier service (charges prepaid) that same day) if telecopied before 5:00 p.m., local time in the jurisdiction of recipient on a Business Day, and otherwise on the next Business Day, or (c) two Business Days after being sent to the recipient by internationally reputable overnight courier service (charges prepaid).

25. Arbitration Any disputes arising hereunder shall be referred to and finally resolved either by (x) an ad hoc arbitration procedure approved by the parties or, if an agreement as to an ad hoc procedure cannot be reached, then (y) arbitration in accordance with the Rules (the “Rules”) of the London Court of International Arbitration (“LCIA”), which Rules are deemed to be incorporated by reference into this Section 25, except as expressly modified by this Section 25. Before an arbitration pursuant to this provision has been convened, any party may seek interim or provisional relief from the English courts, which shall have exclusive jurisdiction in respect of any such interim or provisional relief. Such interim or provisional relief may subsequently be vacated, continued or modified by the arbitrator on the application of any party. Furthermore, the following provisions shall apply in respect of any arbitration proceedings conducted pursuant to this Section 25:

(a) there shall be one (1) arbitrator, the selection of which shall be by mutual agreement between the parties. If, however, the parties are unable to agree on the selection of the arbitrator within thirty (30) days after the commencement of the arbitration, then the selection of the arbitrator shall be made by the LCIA;

(b) the place of the arbitration shall be London, England;

(d) the arbitrator shall determine the allocation of expenses of the arbitral proceedings amongst the parties;

(e) the arbitrator shall have the authority to award all forms of relief determined to be just and equitable; provided that the arbitrator shall have no authority to award punitive or exemplary damages, or any other monetary damages not measured by the prevailing party’s actual damages; and

(f) any arbitral award rendered pursuant to this provision shall be final and binding on the parties and may be enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction.

26. Governing Law This Agreement is governed by, and shall be construed exclusively in accordance with, the laws of England.

27. Costs Each party shall bear its own costs and expenses in relation to the negotiations leading up to the execution of this Agreement and the preparation, execution and carrying into effect of the agreements and instruments documenting the transactions contemplated hereby.

28. Supremacy In the event of any conflict between this Agreement and the Articles and any other terms and conditions attaching to any Securities the terms of this Agreement shall prevail and the parties shall procure that the Articles or the terms and conditions of such Securities (as applicable) shall be amended to such extent as may be necessary in order to remove such conflict and subject to applicable law in order to align them with the provisions of this Agreement.

Delivery by Facsimile or e-mail This Agreement, the agreements referred to herein, and each other agreement or instrument entered into in connection herewith or therewith or contemplated hereby or thereby, and any amendments hereto or thereto, to the extent signed and delivered by means of a facsimile machine or e-mail, shall be treated in all manner and respects as an original agreement or instrument and shall be considered to have the same binding legal effect as if it were the original signed version thereof delivered in person. As the request of any party hereto or to any such agreement or instrument, each other party hereto or thereto shall re-execute original forms thereof and deliver them to all other parties. No party hereto or to any such agreement or instrument shall raise the use of a facsimile machine or e-mail to deliver a signature or the fact that any signature or agreement or instrument was transmitted or communicated through the use of a facsimile machine or e-mail as a defense to the formation or enforceability of a contract and each such party forever waives any such defense.

32. Assignment. No Co-Investor may assign any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement to any Person other than an Affiliate of such Co-Investor without the prior written consent of the Lux Sarl.

33. Co-Investors’ Representative.

(a) Each Co-Investor hereby appoints Xxxxxxxxx Xxxx (the “Co-Investor Representative”) as its representative and attorney with irrevocable authority to:

(ii) make any request, election, proposals or consent or give any notice expressed to be made on behalf of the Co-Investors to the Company, the Lux Sarl, the Bain Investors or any other Securityholder,

in connection with this Agreement, the Articles and all other terms and conditions attaching to the Securities.

(b) A majority of the Co-Investors (as determined by reference to the number of Securities held by them) are entitled by written notice to the Lux Sarl to remove the Co-Investor Representative and to appoint in its place another Person that is an Affiliate of a Co-Investor.

34. Termination.

(a) This Agreement (other than Sections 1 and 16 to 33 (inclusive)) shall terminate and each party’s rights and obligations under this Agreement shall immediately cease upon:

(i) the mutual written agreement of the Lux Sarl, the Company, the Bain Investors and the Co-Investor Representative;

(ii) a Public Sale, if so required by the Bain Investors in writing delivered to the Company, the Lux Sarl and the Co-Investor Representative; or

(iii) the consummation of a Final Exit.

Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, termination shall not affect a party’s accrued rights and obligations as at the date of termination.

(b) A party shall cease to be a party to this Agreement for the purpose of receiving benefits and enforcing its rights hereunder with effect from the date it ceases to hold or beneficially own any Securities. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, termination shall not affect a party’s accrued rights and obligations as at such date of cessation.
