Each Oversubscribing Accepting Shareholder shall be obligated to buy such number of additional Remaining Transfer Shares as allocated by the Selling Shareholder pursuant to this Clause 9.6 and the Selling Shareholder shall so notify the Accepting Shareholders within ten (10) Business Days of the date of expiry of the ROFR Offer Period. Any Accepting Shareholder which does not indicate in their ROFR Notice their desire to acquire additional Transfer Shares beyond its Pro Rata Share of the Transfer Shares in the manner set out in Clause 9.4 shall be deemed to have declined the offer to purchase the Remaining Transfer Shares.

9.7

If any Accepting Shareholder accepts the offer in accordance with Clause 9.4 or Clause 9.6, the Selling Shareholder shall be bound to transfer the relevant portion of Transfer Shares to the Accepting Shareholder (free from all Encumbrances and with all rights and advantages attaching thereto, by the delivery of duly executed transfer forms together with the share certificates in respect of such Transfer Shares and, if required by the purchasers, the Stamp Duty Documents (“Transfer Documents”)) within ten (10) Business Days after the Transfer Shares have been allocated to the Accepting Shareholders. The Accepting Shareholder shall be bound to make payment to the Selling Shareholder of the Transfer Price for the Transfer Shares at the same time as delivery of the Transfer Documents by the Selling Shareholder.

9.8

If the Selling Shareholder, after having become bound as aforesaid, defaults in transferring the

Transfer Shares to the Accepting Shareholder(s):

(a)

the Company may receive the relevant Transfer Price from the Accepting Shareholder(s) and the Company’s receipt of the Transfer Price shall be a good discharge to the Accepting Shareholder(s);

(b)

the Selling Shareholder shall be deemed to have appointed any Director or secretary of the Company as its agent to:

(i)

execute, complete and deliver, in the name and on behalf of the Selling Shareholder, all agreement, documents and/or instruments necessary to transfer the Transfer Shares to the Accepting Shareholder(s) against payment of the Transfer Price to the Company; and

(ii)

(subject to the transfer being duly stamped) enter the name of the Accepting Shareholder(s) in the electronic register of members as the holder(s) of the relevant Transfer Shares. After the relevant number of Transfer Shares has been entered against the Accepting Shareholder’s name in the electronic register of members of the Company in purported exercise of the aforesaid power, the validity of the proceedings shall not be questioned by any Person;

(c)

the Company shall hold the purchase money on trust for the Selling Shareholder (without interest) until the Selling Shareholder has delivered to the Company the relevant share certificate(s) in respect of the Transfer Shares (or a duly executed indemnity for lost certificate in a form acceptable to the Board); and

(d)

the defaulting Selling Shareholder shall indemnify and keep the Directors and or secretary of the Company harmless against any claim and/or losses that they may suffer in connection with them complying with this Clause.

9.9

Subject to Clauses 9.15 and 10, after the Selling Shareholder has gone through the right of first refusal process set out in Clauses 9.2 to 9.8 above, any Shareholder who has elected not to exercise its rights of first refusal in Clause 9.2 to 9.8 above (“Tag Right Holder”) shall be entitled to notify the Selling Shareholder that it wishes to sell a certain number of Shares held by it at the proposed Transfer Price by sending a notice (a “Tag Exercise Notice”) to the Selling Shareholder within seven (7) Business Days after expiry of the ROFR Offer Period (such period, the “Tag Offer Period”). The Tag Exercise Notice shall specify the number of Shares which such Tag Right Holder wishes to sell (such Tag Right Holder, an “Electing Tag Right Holder”). For the avoidance of doubt:

(a)

in the event the total number of Shares proposed to be sold by the Electing Tag Right Holders and the Selling Shareholder is greater than the number of Shares that the Purchaser is willing to purchase, then the number of Shares to be sold by each of the Electing Tag Right Holders and Selling Shareholder shall be proportionately reduced in accordance with their respective shareholder percentage inter se; and

(b)

if any of the Tag Right Holders does not send a Tag Exercise Notice within the Tag Offer Period, such Tag Right Holder shall be deemed to have specified that it does not wish to sell any Shares.

9.10

Within five (5) Business Days after the expiry of the Tag Offer Period, the Selling Shareholder shall send a written notice (a “Tag Calculation Notice”) to all the Electing Tag Right Holders (with a copy to the Company) informing each Electing Tag Right Holder of the number of Shares which it is entitled to sell under Clause 9.9, which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not be more than the maximum number of Shares indicated in such Electing Tag Right Holder’s Tag Exercise Notice.

9.11

Following the expiry of the Tag Offer Period or the delivery of the Tag Calculation Notice (as applicable), within three (3) months of the date of expiry of the ROFR Offer Period, the Selling Shareholder shall be entitled to sell the Remaining Transfer Shares to the Purchaser less any Shares which the Electing Tag Right Holders are entitled to sell as set out in the Tag Calculation Notices, provided that at the same time the Purchaser purchases from such Electing Tag Right Holders the number of Shares that they are respectively entitled to sell on terms no less favourable than those obtained by the Selling Shareholder from the Purchaser except that the Selling Shareholder may provide certain representations, warranties, covenants and indemnities in relation to the Company as it so wishes.

9.12

The Parties agree that no Transfer of Shares by a Shareholder shall be registered by the Board unless such Transfer is in accordance with the provisions of this Clause (if applicable) and the transferee of such Shares has executed and delivered a Deed of Adherence under which that transferee shall agree to be bound by this Agreement as if an original party hereto. The transferor of the Shares shall remain and continue to be liable and be responsible for the discharge, observance and performance of all its liabilities and obligations, whether actual or contingent, arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, and shall remain entitled to all accrued rights and benefits arising out of or in connection with the Shares, at any time up to and including the date of the Transfer of the Shares. Upon the transferor of the Shares transferring all of its Shares, it shall procure the immediate resignation of its nominees, if any, to the Board.

9.13

Save as provided in Clause 10, any Transfer of Shares in breach of this Clause 9 shall be void and the Company shall be entitled to refuse to register the relevant instruments of transfer.

9.14

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Parties hereby agree that there shall be no Transfer of Shares by a Shareholder to a Competitor, without the prior written consent of the Board, which shall include the consent of the Founder Directors and all of the Investor Directors, provided that if no Investor Director has been appointed, the prior written consent of the other Shareholders shall be obtained.

9.15

Clauses 9.1 to 9.11 shall not apply in the case of a transfer of all or part of the Shares owned by any Shareholder to its Affiliates or Immediate Family Member (whether in connection with transmission of Shares by operation of law or otherwise) (each such transferee, a “Permitted Transferee”) provided that such Permitted Transferee (if not already bound by the provision of this Agreement) shall execute a Deed of Adherence. Following a transfer of Shares to a Permitted Transferee, the original transferring Shareholder (but not a subsequent transferor in a series of transfers to Permitted Transferees) shall remain party to this Agreement and shall be jointly and severally liable with the Permitted Transferee under this Agreement as a Shareholder in respect of the transferred Shares.

9.16

If, at any time after a transfer of Shares is effected by a Shareholder to its Permitted Transferee, such transferee ceases to be a Permitted Transferee of the transferring Shareholder, it shall be the duty of the transferring Shareholder and such transferee to notify the Board in writing that such event has occurred and both the transferring Shareholder and such transferee shall jointly and severally undertake to procure and ensure that all (and not some only) of the Shares held by such transferee are immediately transferred to the transferring Shareholder or another Permitted Transferee of the transferring Shareholder.
