6.2 | Representations and warranties of the Buyers |
Each Buyer hereby represents and warrants with respect to itself to the Seller that as of the Transfer Date:
a) | it is a validly organized and existing company under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation and it has the corporate power and authority to enter into this Agreement and to perform its obligations hereunder; |

Act”), and therefore cannot be sold unless subsequently registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is available; |
f) | prior to the execution of this Agreement, it has had the opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from representatives of the Company concerning an investment in the Company, as well as the finances, operations, business and prospects of the Company, and the opportunity to obtain additional information to verify the accuracy of all information so obtained. In determining whether to make this investment, it has relied solely on its own knowledge and understanding of the Company and its business based upon its own due diligence investigation and the information furnished pursuant to this paragraph.

g) | it represents that it is an “accredited investor” as such term is defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D under the Securities Act and acknowledges the sale contemplated hereby is being made in reliance on a private placement exemption to “accredited investors” within the meaning of Section 501(a) of Regulation D under the Securities Act or similar exemptions under federal and state law; |
h) | it is acquiring the Sale Shares solely for investment purposes, for its own account and not for the account or benefit of any other person, and not with a view towards the distribution or dissemination thereof in violation of the Securities Act.

If in the future it decides to offer, resell, pledge or otherwise transfer the Sale Shares, such Sale Shares may be offered, resold, pledged or otherwise transferred only pursuant to: (i) registration under the Securities Act, or (ii) an available exemption from registration. It agrees that if any transfer of its Sale Shares or any interest therein is proposed to be made in reliance on an exemption from registration of such transfer under the Securities Act, as a condition precedent to any such transfer, it may be required to deliver to the Company an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company. Absent registration or an exemption, it agrees not to resell the Sale Shares; and |
j) | no material governmental, administrative or other third party consents or approvals are required or necessary on the part of it in connection with the |
10
transactions contemplated by this Agreement other than the Regulatory Conditions Precedent. |

The transaction contemplated by this Agreement involves only the transfer of the Sale Shares of the Company, a Luxembourg company, and not a transfer of shares of any other company of the group controlled by the Company.

(collectively, the “Mexican Subsidiaries”). In order to comply with the Mexican Federal Economic Competition Law, and in particular Article 87 thereof, it is agreed that completion of the Luxembourg transaction will not have any legal or material effects in the Mexican territory until notification has been made to, and clearance obtained from, the Comisión Federal de Competencia Económica (“COFECE”) for Mexico. To ensure such absence of legal or material effect in Mexican territory, each Buyer, severally, and not jointly, undertakes to refrain from exercising any and all rights arising under the Sale Shares being purchased by such Buyer hereunder, in each case, to the extent such exercise relates to the respective capital stock, rights or assets of the Mexican Subsidiaries, including, without limitation, any and all rights with respect to sale, lease or other transfer of capital stock, rights or assets of the Mexican Subsidiaries, voting rights and rights to otherwise influence corporate decisions of, or relating to, the Mexican Subsidiaries; provided that this undertaking by such Buyer will cease to be effective on earlier of (i) the date that is 150 days following the date hereof, or such later date as determined by such Buyer to allow COFECE to examine this transaction, and (ii) the date on which COFECE shall have approved, consented to or otherwise authorized the acquisition of the Sale Shares being purchased by such Buyer.
8. | Undertakings by the Parties |
8.1 | Each Buyer agrees that it shall promptly and in any event no later than May 15, 2020, in its capacity as a holder of the Senior PIK Notes, (i) provide evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Seller that it has consented to extending the Stated Maturity (as defined in the Indenture) of the Senior PIK Notes to September 30, 2020 (or such later date as may be agreed by the Seller and the Buyers) and (ii) instruct the Trustee to extend the Stated Maturity in accordance with proviso (i) of this clause, in each case subject to the terms of the Indenture. |
8.2 | The Company hereby undertakes to provide reasonable assistance on a best efforts basis, as reasonably requested, to assist the Buyers in fulfilling the Regulatory Conditions Precedent. The Parties acknowledge that the Buyers shall have the primary responsibility, on a several basis, of fulfilling the Regulatory Conditions Precedent and that the Company shall have no obligations itself to fulfil the Regulatory Conditions Precedent, and for the avoidance of doubt shall not be required to undertake any divestments (including in respect of any business, activities or assets of any undertaking that is controlled by any member of the Company’s group) to fulfil the Regulatory Conditions Precedent.

11
severally responsible for and bear all fees and other costs, except for professional fees and other costs incurred by the Seller, in relation to the Regulatory Conditions Precedent. |
