2.The parties acknowledge and agree that, as at the date hereof, complete volumes of the KPMG VDD Reports (the “Complete VDD Report”) have not been delivered to the Buyer and accordingly the Buyer has the right to terminate the SPA (the “Termination Right”).

(iii)without prejudice to the right of the Buyer to exercise the Termination Right pursuant to paragraph 4(i) above, references to “31 January 2021” in the definition of “KPMG VDD Reports Deadline” in clause 6.27 of the SPA shall be amended to refer to “8 March 2021” (the “Extended KPMG VDD Reports Deadline”) and such date shall be deemed to be the “KPMG VDD Reports Deadline” for all purposes under the SPA;
(iv)the time period during which the Buyer shall be entitled to exercise the termination rights under clauses 5.1(h) and 5.1(i) of the SPA (if applicable) shall be extended to twenty one (21) Business Days after the Extended KPMG VDD Reports Deadline and clause 5.1(iv) of the SPA shall be deemed amended accordingly; and
