1.1

The Borrower is a public company and each Guarantor is a private company with limited liability, duly incorporated and validly existing under the laws of England and Wales (save in respect of Guarantor 5, which is duly incorporated and validly existing under the laws of the Republic of Ireland) and has power to carry on its business as it is now being conducted and to own its property and other assets. In connection with this Deed, the Borrower has previously delivered to the Agent a certificate signed by it and, entitled “Perfection Certificate” (the Perfection Certificate) relating to itself and each Guarantor. Each Obligor represents and warrants to the Finance Parties that: (a) its exact legal name is that indicated on the Perfection Certificate and on the signature page hereof; and (b) it is an organisation of the type, and is incorporated in the jurisdiction, set out in the Perfection Certificate; and (c) the Perfection Certificate accurately sets out each Obligor’s registered number; and (d) the Perfection Certificate accurately sets out such Obligor’s corporate seat and its registered office as well as such Obligor’s postal address if different from its registered office, and (e) all other information set out in the Perfection Certificate pertaining to such Obligor and each of its Subsidiaries including as to its assets and liabilities, the material Copyrights, Trademarks and Patents is accurate and complete.

1.2

The execution, delivery and performance of this Deed and the other Loan Documents to which any Obligor is a party are within the corporate powers of such Obligor, have been duly authorised by all necessary corporate and other action and do not and will not conflict with (i) any law or regulation applicable to it; (ii) the constitutional documents of such Obligor or any other organisational documents; (iii) any agreement or instrument binding on such Obligor or (iv) require any action by, filing, registration, or qualification with, or Governmental Approval from, any Governmental Authority (except such Governmental Approvals which have already been obtained and are in full force and effect and customary filings with any Governmental Authority necessary to register or perfect any Lien created pursuant to the Loan Documents) or (v) constitute an event of default under any material agreement by which such Obligor is bound. Each Obligor is not in default under any agreement to which it is a party or by which it or its assets are bound in which the default could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on such Obligor’s business.

2	COLLATERAL

2.1

Each Obligor has good title to the Collateral, free of Liens except Permitted Liens or any Lien arising in the ordinary course of business of such Obligor which is discharged in the ordinary course of business of such Obligor. Each Obligor has no deposit accounts other than the deposit accounts, if any, described in the Perfection Certificate delivered to Agent in connection herewith, or of which such Obligor has given Agent

notice and taken such actions as are necessary to give Security Agent a perfected security interest therein. The Accounts are bona fide, existing obligations of each relevant Account Debtor.

2.2

The Collateral is not in the possession of any third party bailee (such as a warehouse) except as otherwise provided in the Perfection Certificate. None of the components of any tangible Collateral shall be maintained at locations other than as provided in the Perfection Certificate or as permitted pursuant to clause 9.6 (Encumbrance).

Save in respect of any Permitted Liens, each Obligor’s Intellectual Property is not subject to any Liens. To the knowledge of each Obligor, each Patent which it owns or purports to own and which is material to such Obligor’s business is valid and enforceable, and no part of the Intellectual Property which Borrower owns or purports to own and which is material to such Obligor’s business has been adjudged invalid or unenforceable, in whole or in part. To the best of each Obligor’s knowledge, no claim has been made that any part of the Intellectual Property infringes the rights of any third party except to the extent such claim would not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on such Obligor’s business.

2.4	Except as noted on the Perfection Certificate, each Obligor is not a party to, nor is it bound by, any Restricted Licence.

3	LITIGATION

There are no actions or proceedings pending or, to the knowledge of such Obligor’s Responsible Officers or legal counsel, threatened (save for any speculative claims by employees or former employees or oppositions to any third party intellectual property filings in the ordinary course of an Obligor’s protection of its intellectual property rights) by or against such Obligor or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates (other than Mereo US Holdings and its Subsidiaries), involving more than, individually or in the aggregate, One Hundred Thousand Pounds (£100,000) (or its equivalent in any other currency).

All consolidated financial statements for the Obligors and any of their Subsidiaries and/or Affiliates (if any) (other than Mereo US Holding and its Subsidiaries) truly and fairly present the Group’s financial condition and results of operations.

4.2

The unaudited consolidated management accounts of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries since the Accounts Date up to 28 February 2019 (Management Accounts Date) fairly present the assets, liabilities, financial condition and prospects of the Group and so far as the Borrower is aware there has been no material deterioration in the Group’s assets, financial condition or prospects since the Management Accounts Date.

5	FORECASTS AND PROJECTIONS

All unaudited forecasts and projections supplied by or on behalf of an Obligor to the Agent were carefully prepared and believed by such Obligor to be not misleading in any material respect at the date on which they were provided.

6.1.1

corporate action, legal proceeding or other procedure or step described in clause 10.5 (Insolvency and insolvency proceedings); or

For the purposes of Regulation (EU) 2015/848 of 20 May 2015 on insolvency proceedings (recast) (the Regulation), its centre of main interest (as that term is used in Article 3(1) of the Regulation) is situated in England and Wales, except in the case of Guarantor 5, whose centre of main interest is Ireland.

8	REGULATORY COMPLIANCE

To the best of each Obligors’ knowledge, each Obligor has not breached any laws, ordinances or rules or regulations, the breach of which could reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change. None of any Obligor’s (or any of its Subsidiaries/Affiliates) property or assets has been used by such Obligor or, to the best of such Obligor’s knowledge, by previous Persons, in disposing, producing, storing, treating, or transporting any hazardous substance other than legally. Each Obligor (and each of its Subsidiaries/Affiliates) has obtained all consents, approvals and authorisations of, made all declarations or filings with, and given all notices to, all Government Authorities that are necessary to continue its business as currently conducted, except where the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to be detrimental to such Obligor’s business.

10	TAXATION

Each Obligor has complied in all material respects with all Taxation laws in all jurisdictions in which it is subject to Taxation and has paid all Taxes due and payable

by it and no claims are being asserted against it in respect of Taxes save for assessments in relation to the ordinary course of the business of such Obligor or claims contested in good faith and in respect of which adequate provision has been made and disclosed in the latest accounts of such Obligor or information delivered to Agent under this Deed.

11	FULL DISCLOSURE

No written representation, warranty or other statement of any Obligor in any certificate or written statement given to Agent, as of the date such representation, warranty, or other statement was made, taken together with all such written certificates and written statements given to Agent, contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary to make the statements contained in the certificates or statements not misleading (it being recognised by Agent that the projections and forecasts provided by such Obligor in good faith and based upon reasonable assumptions are not viewed as facts and that actual results during the period or periods covered by such projections and forecasts may differ from the projected or forecasted results).

12	NO WINDING-UP

Each Obligor has not taken any corporate or other action nor has any application been made or have any other steps been taken or legal proceedings been started or (to the best of such Obligor’s knowledge and belief having made due and proper enquiry) threatened against such Obligor or any of its Subsidiaries/Affiliates for its winding-up or for the appointment of a trustee, liquidator, receiver, administrative receiver, administrator or similar officer of it or of any or all of its assets.

13	AIM STATUS

The Borrower has complied and continues to comply with all AIM Rules and Disclosure and Transparency Rules and the Market Abuse Regulation as applicable to it.

14	PATENTS

The Borrower owns the Patents and has good title to, has rights in, and the power to transfer each of the Patents.

15	LICENCES

Other than as previously disclosed to the Agent in the Perfection Certificate, each Obligor is not a party to, nor is bound by, any material licence (other than over the counter software that is commercially available to the public) or other material agreement with respect to which such Obligor is the licensee that prohibits or otherwise restricts such Obligor from granting a charge in such Obligor’s interest in such licence or agreement or any other property. Each Obligor shall provide written notice to Agent

within fifteen (15) days of entering or becoming bound by, any such licence or agreement which is reasonably likely to have a material impact on Borrower’s business or financial condition. Each Obligor shall take such steps as Agent reasonably requests to obtain the consent of, authorisation by or waiver by, any Person whose consent or waiver is necessary for all such licences or contract rights to be deemed Collateral and for Agent to have a charge in it that might otherwise be restricted or prohibited by law or by the terms of any such licence or agreement, whether now existing or entered into in the future.
