NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties agree as follows:

1. Definitions. Capitalized terms used and not defined in this Fifth Amendment have their respective meanings assigned in the Agreement. All references to the terms whose definitions are provided herein, as the same are contained in the Agreement, the Schedules, or any additional documents that contain or refer to the Agreement or such terms, shall be interpreted in all such cases to be a reference of the updated definitions of such terms as amended hereby.

2. Amendments to the Agreement. As of the Fifth Amendment Effective Date (as defined below), the Agreement is hereby amended or modified as follows:

(a) Section 1.3(a) is hereby amended and replaced in its entirety with the following:

“Additional Earnout Escrow Shares” means a number of Purchaser Shares with an aggregate value equal to $5,000,000 at the Closing (assuming a deemed value of $10.00 per Purchaser Share).

(b) Section 1.41 of the Agreement is hereby amended and replaced in its entirety with the following:

“Estimated Closing Exchange Consideration” means $75,000,000 (a) minus the amount of the Estimated Closing Net Indebtedness, (b) minus the amount of the Estimated Company Investigations and Disputes Losses, (c) plus the amount by which the Estimated Net Working Capital Exceeds the Net Working Capital Target, or minus the amount by which the Net Working Capital Target exceeds the Estimated Net Working Capital (d) minus an amount equal to $10.00 per Adjustment Escrow Share; which amount shall be computed pursuant to Section 3.6 and the Estimated Closing Consideration Spreadsheet, and paid in Purchaser Shares at Closing, which Purchaser Shares shall have a deemed value of $10.00 per share.”

“As additional Exchange Consideration, at such times as provided in this Section 3.10, if the Measured Performance Level for the first Calculation Period within the Earnout Period exceeds A$16,000,000 the Purchaser shall pay to Shareholder with respect to such Calculation Period a number of Additional Earnout Escrow Shares equal to the product of (rounded to the nearest whole share) (i) 500,000 Earnout Escrow Shares, multiplied by a fraction equal to (A) the Measured Performance Level for such Calculation Period less A$16,000,000, divided by (B) A$1,500,000; provided, that in no event shall Shareholder become entitled to receive, by reason of the operation of this Section 3.10(h), (x) a number of Purchaser Shares in excess of the Additional Earnout Escrow Shares, (y) more Purchaser Shares than are held by or in the control of the Escrow Agent as Earnout Escrow Shares pursuant to this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement at the time of such payment, or (z) any Additional Earnout Escrow Shares if the Measured Performance Level for the first Calculation Period does not exceed A$16,000,000. Any Additional Earnout Escrow Shares not paid to Shareholder in connection with this Section 3.10(h) shall be released by the Escrow Agent to Purchaser and cancelled.”

Except as expressly provided in this Fifth Amendment, all of the terms and provisions of the Agreement are and will remain in full force and effect and are hereby ratified and confirmed by the Parties. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the amendments contained herein will not be construed as an amendment to or waiver of any other provision of the Agreement or as a waiver of or consent to any further or future action on the part of either Party that would require the waiver or consent of the other Party. On and after the Fifth Effective Date, each reference in the Agreement to “this Agreement,” “the Agreement,” “hereunder,” “hereof,” “herein,” or words of like import, and each reference to the Agreement in any other agreements, documents, or instruments executed and delivered pursuant to, or in connection with, the Agreement, will mean and be a reference to the Agreement as amended by this Fifth Amendment.
