The Parties hereby agree that pursuant to Section 6.3(c) of the TOSA, this GH Supplementary Agreement shall be automatically and immediately terminated if the Offeror has not been able to secure a “participación significativa” in the OPA.
In connection thereto, this Supplementary Agreement shall be subject to the following terms and conditions:

| Governmental Entity), which could affect the legality, validity or enforceability of the Transaction Documents or the consummation of the transactions contemplated in the TOSA. | ||
| (v) | GH hereby reaffirms and ratifies all other representation and warranties set forth in Article III of the TOSA. |
| 2. | Offer |
| The Clear GH Shares shall be subject to the following provisions: |
| (i) | If the release of the seizure over the Clear GH Shares is registered before CAVALI before the Commencement Date; or, from the Commencement Date and during the OPA Acceptance Term, GH shall accept the Offer to transfer the Clear GH Shares to the Offeror in accordance with the TOSA, particularly pursuant to Article II of the TOSA. And, on the Settlement Date, the Offeror shall pay GH the OPA Consideration in accordance with Section 2.2(a) of the TOSA. |
In accordance with Section 5.6 of the TOSA, if GH tenders but is not able to sell part of the Clear GH Shares in the Offer due to an excess in acceptance to the Offer, then, within the following five (5) LSE Business Days after the Settlement Date, GH will transfer to the Trust all tendered but not purchased Clear GH Shares and such shares will be deemed as “ACCIONES ADICIONALES” as such term is defined in the Trust Agreement.
| (ii) | If the release of the seizure over the Clear GH Shares is registered before CAVALI after the Settlement Date, then GH shall exercise its political rights over the Clear GH Shares in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Syndication Agreement detailed in Section 3 below. Once the release is registered before CAVALI, GH shall transfer the Clear GH Shares to the Offeror and the Offeror shall immediately pay GH the OPA Consideration and such transfer shall automatically occur through the LSE and under LSE regulations and the applicable Law. |
| 3. | Syndication Agreement |
| (i) | On the execution date of the Trust Agreement, GH and the Offeror shall execute a share syndication agreement regarding the Encumbered GH Shares and the Clear GH Shares if applicable pursuant to Section 2(ii) above (the “Syndication Agreement”), in the form attached as Annex A of this Supplementary Agreement. |
| (ii) | The terms and conditions set forth in the TOSA and in the Trust Agreement shall be as applicable to the Syndication Agreement, accordingly. |
| (iii) | The term of the Syndication Agreement shall be either (i) the same terms as the Trust Agreement; or (ii) upon release and cancellation of the Encumbered GH Shares, whichever occurs first. |

| (ii) | GH will transfer 2’585,597 GH Shares, equivalent to 2.2% of the GH Shares, to the Offeror, subject to the cancellation of the seizure over the Encumbered GH Shares, at which time the Offeror shall immediately pay GH the OPA Consideration and the transfer shall automatically occur through the LSE and under LSE regulations and the applicable Law. |
| 5. | Miscellaneous |
| The parties hereby recognize that this Supplementary Agreement complements the TOSA and the Trust Agreement, as applicable. The TOSA and the Trust Agreement shall prevail in case of any conflict among the provisions of this Supplementary Agreement and the TOSA and the Trust Agreement. |
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, each of the Offeror and GH has caused this Supplementary Agreement to be executed by its respective officers thereunto duly authorized.
