Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any such Losses shall be determined without duplication and, in the case of Losses relating to the Company, based on the Investor’s pro rata share of the Issued Shares on a fully diluted, as converted basis.
26
5.2.2. | The representations and warranties of the Company contained in or made pursuant to this Agreement shall survive the execution and delivery or any termination of this Agreement and shall terminate, unless a prior claim is made by an Investor Indemnified Party with respect to a Breach at the applicable Completion, on the day that is ten (10) months after the date of the Initial Completion or six (6) months after the date of the Second Completion or six (6) months after the date of the Third Completion, as the case may be, except in each case for (i) the representations and warranties of the Company made pursuant to Paragraph 7 of Schedule 2 to this Agreement which shall terminate on the day that is twenty-four (24) months after the date of the Initial Completion or twenty-four (24) months after the date of the Second or twelve (12) months after the date of the Third Completion, as the case may be, and (ii) the Fundamental Indemnity Representations which shall survive until the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations. The representations and warranties of the Investor contained in or made pursuant to this Agreement shall survive the execution and delivery or any termination of this Agreement until the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations. |
5.2.3. | Notwithstanding the foregoing, absent fraud or wilful breach of covenants by the Company, the Investor acknowledges and agrees that the aggregate maximum liability of the Company to the Investor Indemnified Parties in respect of all Breaches of the representations and warranties of the Company contained in or made pursuant to this Agreement and any covenants by the Company shall not exceed the total Subscription Amount actually paid by the Investor at the Completions. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, neither (A) the Investor nor (B) any Investor Indemnified Parties may make a claim for indemnification against the Company under this Clause 5.2 or otherwise (other than in the case of fraud or wilful breach by the Company) for Breaches of the representations and warranties of the Company contained in or made pursuant to this Agreement and any covenants by the Company unless and until the Investor Indemnified Parties have incurred Losses arising out of, relating to, connected with or caused by Breaches (other than a Breach of Fundamental Indemnity Representations) in an aggregate amount greater than USD150,000,000 (the “Threshold”); provided, however, that once the amount of Losses otherwise indemnifiable pursuant to this Section 5.2 equal or exceed the Threshold, the Investor Indemnified Parties may make claims for indemnification for all Losses exceeding USD75,000,000. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, with respect to Breaches of Paragraph 7 of Schedule 2 to this Agreement, (i) neither (A) the Investor nor (B) any Investor Indemnified Parties may make a claim for indemnification against the Company for Breaches unless and until the Investor Indemnified Parties have incurred Losses arising out of, relating to, connected with or caused by Breaches of Paragraph 7 of Schedule 2 to this Agreement in an aggregate amount greater than USD25,000,000 (the “Tax Threshold”), in which case the Investor Indemnified Parties may make claims for indemnification for all Losses exceeding the Tax Threshold (provided, that the amount of Losses otherwise indemnifiable pursuant to this Section 5.2 exceed the Threshold) and (ii) Losses arising out of, relating to, connected with or caused by Breaches of Paragraph 7 of Schedule 2 to this Agreement shall count towards the Threshold only to the extent such Losses exceed the Tax Threshold. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Investor incurred USD30,000,000 from a Breach of Paragraph 7 of Schedule 2 to this Agreement and USD140,000,000 from Breaches of other representations and warranties of the Company contained in or made pursuant to this Agreement, the Investor may not make a claim for indemnification against the Company. Furthermore, notwithstanding any provision to the contrary herein, no Investor Indemnified Party may make a claim for indemnification against the Company under this Clause 5.2 or otherwise for any Losses with respect to any Breach of representations and warranties of the Company contained in or made pursuant to this Agreement or covenants by the Company of which any of the Investor Indemnified Parties had actual knowledge (i) prior to signing of this Agreement if such Breach did not rise to the level of failing to satisfy an Investor Condition Precedent, or (ii) prior to the applicable Completion if a Breach did rise to the level of failing to satisfy an Investor Condition Precedent but the Investor chose to waive such Investor Condition Precedent to proceed with the applicable Completion. For the purposes of this Clause 5.2.3, actual knowledge of SVF means the actual knowledge of Xxxxx Thevenon and Xxxxxx Xxxx of any matter which would give rise to a Breach hereunder with reasonably sufficient detail to ascertain that there is or was such a Breach. Without limitation to the preceding sentence, no knowledge shall be imputed to any person, and no person shall be required to undertake any independent investigation of any nature for the purpose of verifying the accuracy of any representation or warranty or the Company’s compliance with any covenant or undertaking set forth in this Agreement. |
27
5.2.4. | If and only if the applicable Completion is completed, the Company shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless, without regard to any actual knowledge of such matters (notwithstanding Clause 5.2.3) but subject to the Threshold and the other limitations of Clause 5.2.3, the Investor Indemnified Parties from and against any and all Losses of such Investor Indemnified Party arising out of, relating to, connected with or caused by any failure of the Company to comply with the covenants set forth in Clause 9.2.1. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any such Losses shall be determined without duplication and, in the case of Losses relating to the Company, based on the Investor’s pro rata share of the Issued Shares on a fully diluted, as converted basis. |
5.2.5. | Notwithstanding any other provision contained herein, absent fraud or wilful breach of covenants by the Company, this Clause 5.2 shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the Investor Indemnified Parties for any claim against the Company for any breach of any representation or warranty of, or any covenants (other than the covenants set forth Clauses 4.1.1, 4.1.2, 4.1.3, 9.1 and 13.2) by, the Company (whether in contract, in tort, or otherwise); provided, however, that the Investor Indemnified Parties shall have the right to seek specific performance against the Company for any breach of covenants as provided under Clause 16. For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing shall not been deemed to waive any rights or remedies of the Investor in respect of any breach by the Company of its obligations pursuant to the Existing Shareholders’ Agreement or, after the Initial Completion, the New Shareholders’ Agreement. |
5.2.6. | For the purpose of this Clause 5.2: |
“Fundamental Indemnity Representations” means the representations and warranties of the Company set forth in Clauses 6.1.4 to 6.1.7, Clauses 6.1.9 to 6.1.12, and Clause 7.1.2 of this Agreement; and Paragraphs 1, 2, 3, 4 and 6(a) and 6(b) of Schedule 2 of this Agreement;

(i) if the Company provides notice to the Investor (x) at any time between July 15, 2020 and August 30, 2021, inclusive, that its unrestricted cash balance is no greater than USD600,000,000.00, then the second stage will occur on the date that is 45 days after the Investor receives such notice (such date, the “Accelerated Second Stage Completion Date”), and/or (y) at any time between the Third Stage Acceleration Trigger Date and February 27, 2022, inclusive, that its unrestricted cash balance is no greater than USD600,000,000.00, then the third stage will occur on the date that is 45 days after the Investor receives such notice;
(ii) if the Company contemplates consummating an initial public offering or other type of listing, including a direct listing, primary offering, secondary offering or a combination thereof (“IPO”), of its shares on an internationally recognized stock exchange (including the New York Stock Exchange, NASDAQ, the Stock Exchange of Hong Kong or the Singapore Exchange) and submits a preliminary or confidential filing of Form F-1 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (or equivalent filing with the competent regulator in any other applicable jurisdiction), the Company may, by giving written notice to the Investor, require that any stage that has not yet been consummated in full occur as promptly as practicable after such filing and in any event prior to the earlier of (i) the execution and delivery by the Company of an underwriting agreement with respect to the IPO and (ii) the contemplated date of consummation of the IPO, each as notified by the Company to the Investor;

(iv) if the Investor does not fund when due (for the avoidance of doubt, taking into account any acceleration pursuant to the preceding subclauses (i) through (iii)) (x) the first stage, then the Target Completion Date of the second stage and third stage shall be deemed to be the Target Completion Date of the first stage (as the same may have been accelerated), and any remedies that the Company has with respect to the Investor’s failure to timely fund the first stage shall equally apply to the second stage and third stage, or (y) the second stage, then the Target Completion Date of the third stage shall be deemed to be the Target Completion Date of the second stage (as the same may have been accelerated), and any remedies that the Company has with respect to the Investor’s failure to timely fund the second stage shall equally apply to the third stage; provided, that, in the case of this subclause (iv), the Investor shall have a 30 calendar day grace period in respect of the funding of each stage.”

Following the completion of each capital call as described above, the Investor shall cause its Affiliates to deliver such proceeds from such capital call as may be necessary for the Investor to consummate the relevant Completion in accordance with this Agreement.”
Clause 4.1.3(a) of the Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to be and read as follows:
“Third Completion. Subject to satisfaction (by the Investor) or waiver (in accordance with this Agreement by the Company) of the applicable Company Conditions Precedent set forth in Schedule 1B, on the Target Completion Dates for the third completion of the purchase, sale and issuance of Series H Preference Shares (the “Third Completion” and together with the Initial Completion and the Second Completion, the “Completions”), the Company will sell and issue to the Investor 97,356,764 Series H Preference Shares in the aggregate (the “Third Tranche Subscription Preference Shares”), to be delivered in three stages of 32,452,255, 32,452,255 and 32,452,254 Series H Preference Shares, and the Investor will purchase and acquire the Third Tranche Subscription Preference Shares against payment to the Company of USD600,000,000.86 in the aggregate (the “Third Tranche Purchase Price”), to be made in three corresponding stages of USD200,000,002.34, USD200,000,002.34 and USD199,999,996.18, respectively; provided, that the Company shall have the right, but not the obligation, to cancel any of the second stage or third stage of the Third Completion, exercisable at any time by giving written notice to the Investor no later than 46 calendar days prior to the Target Completion Date in respect of the applicable stage (in which case the Company’s and the Investor’s obligations under this Agreement with respect to the applicable stage shall automatically terminate without any further action by the parties, but this Agreement shall otherwise remain in full force and effect on account of such cancellation of such stage).
Each stage of the Third Completion shall take place on the later of (i) the applicable Target Completion Date for such stage (as may be accelerated in accordance with the proviso in the definition of “Target Completion Date”) and (ii) the second Business Day after the date on which the last Company Condition Precedent set forth in Schedule 1B is satisfied (by the Investor) or waived (in accordance with this Agreement by the Company) (other than any such condition that by its terms is required to be satisfied or waived at such stage of the Third Completion, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver thereof). References to the Third Completion throughout this Agreement shall be deemed to refer, as necessary, to the applicable stage of the Third Completion.”
The parties agree that the Target Completion Dates in respect of the Third Completion as so amended shall constitute the respective Extended Completion Date in respect of such Target Completion Date and the provisions of Clause 2.6 of the Agreement shall apply with respect thereto in each case.

Any transfer of shares in the capital of the Company in violation of the foregoing sentence shall be null and void ab initio.
This Amendment is supplemental to and should be construed as one document with the Agreement.
