its successors and permitted assigns);
|
3.
|
The Person whose name and particulars are set out under Part A of SCHEDULE 1 of
this Agreement (hereinafter referred to as the “Option Holder”, which expression shall, unless it be repugnant to the context or meaning thereof, be deemed to mean and include her successors,
Affiliates, heirs and permitted assigns); and
|
4.
|
The Person whose name and particulars are set out under Part B of SCHEDULE 1 (hereinafter
referred to as the “Identified Holder”, which expression shall, unless it be repugnant to the context or meaning thereof, be deemed to mean and include its successors and permitted assigns).
|
The Acquirer, Target, Option Holder and the Identified Holder shall collectively be referred to as the “Parties” and individually as a “Party”.
WHEREAS:
A.
|
The Acquirer, the Target, Option Holder and certain other shareholders of the Target executed a Share Purchase Agreement dated October 30, 2020 (“Original SPA”),
which was further amended by way of an amendment agreement dated November 20, 2020 (“First Amendment Agreement”), which was further amended by way of a second amendment agreement dated March 04,
2021 (“Second Amendment Agreement”) (the Original SPA, the First Amendment Agreement and the Second Amendment Agreement shall together be referred to as the “SPA”).
|
B.
|
Pursuant to the SPA, the Acquirer has agreed to purchase upto 100% (One Hundred Percent) of the share capital of the Target and the Option Holder has agreed to transfer all her shares in the Target to the
Acquirer.
|
C.
|
The Acquirer has also entered into a Business Combination Agreement dated November 20, 2020 (“Merger Agreement”) with GigCapital 2, Inc. and UpHealth Merger Sub, Inc.
(“Merger Sub”), pursuant to which the Merger Sub will merge with and into the Acquirer (“Merger”), with the Acquirer surviving the Merger as a wholly owned
subsidiary of GigCapital 2, Inc. Pursuant to the Merger, the Acquirer shall be the surviving entity and shall become a wholly owned subsidiary of the SPAC.
|
D.
|
As per the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Merger is required to be completed by June 10, 2021.
|
E.
|
The Acquirer, the Target and the Option Holder have agreed that the consideration payable by the Acquirer to the Option Holder for the transfer of some of her shares in the Target shall be made by way of
cash and the consideration for transfer of the remaining shares held by her shall be made by way of issuance of shares of the Acquirer in the manner set out in detail under the SPA. Payment of cash as consideration for purchase of shares
by a non-resident acquirer to a resident seller is permitted under the automatic route as per the provisions of FEMA subject to certain conditions. However, swap of instruments between a non-resident acquirer and a resident seller
requires prior approval from the Reserve Bank of India (“RBI”).
|
F.
|
Pursuant to Clause 6.2 of the SPA, in order to be compliant with the extant Indian exchange control regulations contained in the FEMA and the Circulars issued thereunder, the Parties agreed to consummate
the Option Share Transfer (as defined in the SPA) in either of the following manners, as determined by the Option Sellers (as defined under the SPA) at their sole discretion: (i) allotment of
subscription shares in the Acquirer subject to receipt of regulatory approval by the RBI as may be required under Applicable Law, or (ii) any other mechanism or structure which is mutually agreed between the Option Sellers and the
Acquirer, that is permissible under Applicable Law (“OS Alternative Option”). The Option Holder under this Agreement forms a part of the Option Sellers under the SPA.
|
G.
|
As of the date of this Agreement, the Parties have not been in a position to apply and obtain a prior approval from the RBI and the Parties believe that such approval may not be obtained prior to the
proposed date of consummation of the Merger. Accordingly, the Acquirer and the Option Holder have agreed to consummate the Option Share Transfer using the OS Alternative Option.
|
H.
|
The consideration payable to the Option Holder under this Agreement pursuant to the OS Alternative Option takes into account her role as a promoter, director and key management of the Target and her
contribution to the creation and growth of the digital healthcare business of the Target.
|
I.
|
In light of the above, the Acquirer and the Option Holder are now desirous of appointing the Identified Holder to record their mutual understanding with respect to the manner in which the Option Share
Transfer will be consummated.
|
J.
|
For the purposes of the SPA, this Agreement shall be deemed to mean the ‘OS Alternative Option Agreement’ amongst the Identified Holder and the Option Holder pertaining to the Option Shares held by the
Option Holder and shall be deemed to contain the entire understanding of the Acquirer and the Option Holder in relation to the Option Share Transfer pertaining to the Option Shares held by the Option Holder and the OS Alternative Option
referred to under the SPA. Such affirmation of the Option Holder shall be deemed to be the ‘OS Consideration Intimation’ in terms of Clause 6.3 of the SPA, and the Acquirer accepts such OS Consideration Intimation and confirms that no
further action is required from the Option Holder in connection with the OS Consideration Intimation.
