In the event the amount available under applicable Law with Sindu to redeem the OCRPSs is less than the Liquidity Amount as a result of accumulated losses in Sindu or due to insufficient profits or funds for any other reason, Napo Group undertakes to immediately make available the necessary funds to Sindu to the extent of such differential amount in order to enable Sindu to redeem the applicable OCRPS’s for an amount equivalent to the Liquidity Amount.

In the event the amount available under applicable Law with Sindu to redeem the OCRPSs is less than the Liquidity Amount applicable to such outstanding OCRPSs as a result of accumulated losses in Sindu or due to insufficient profits or funds for any other reason, Napo Group undertakes to immediately make available the necessary funds to Sindu to the extent of such differential amount in order to enable Sindu to redeem the applicable OCRPS’s for an amount equivalent to the Liquidity Amount. Simultaneously, with the receipt of the Liquidity Amount, the Investor shall sell and Napo shall have the right to purchase or nominate a Person to purchase the outstanding Shares (such Shares shall be transferred for a consideration being the par value of such shares), such that when all the Sindu Napo

Common Stock is finally sold, then the Investor shall have no further Sindu Equity or any other rights in Sindu, or under this Agreement

e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a Corporate Reorganization prior to a Change of Law where the Investor has not fully exercised its rights pursuant to Clause 6(c) above or Clause 6(f) below, then upon consummation of the Corporate Reorganization, Sindu shall redeem the OCRPS then outstanding and credited to the Investor’s account(s) in consideration of the Corporate Reorganization Consideration allocated to the Investor based on the Investor’s Share Entitlement, which consideration if in cash shall be credited to a bank account as designated by the Investor and otherwise appropriately transferred to the Investor; provided, however, that if applicable Law prohibits the Investor from receiving equity securities as the Corporate Reorganization Consideration, Sindu shall at the option of the Investor (i) pay the Investor the fair market value of such securities in cash as such equity securities are valued in the Corporate Reorganization (net of any charges related to the receipt of such consideration, including but not limited to commissions and taxes of any kind and taxes that may be owed by Sindu to any Government Authority in respect of such consideration), or (ii) establishing a structure reasonably acceptable to the Investor that would permit the Investor to retain the beneficial interest in such Corporate Reorganization securities pari passu with the Investor’s beneficial interest through the OCRPSs in the Sindu Napo Common Stock. In the event the amount available under applicable Law with Sindu to redeem the OCRPSs is less than the Corporate Reorganization Consideration allocated to the Investor based on Investor’s Share Entitlement applicable to such outstanding OCRPSs as a result of accumulated losses in Sindu or due to insufficient profits or funds for any other reason, Napo Group undertakes to immediately make available the necessary funds to Sindu to the extent of such differential amount in order to enable Sindu to redeem the applicable OCRPS’s for an amount equivalent to the Corporate Reorganization Consideration allocated to the Investor based on Investor’s Share Entitlement. Simultaneously, with the aforesaid, the Investor shall sell and Napo shall have the right to purchase or nominate a Person to purchase the outstanding Shares (such Shares shall be transferred for a consideration being the par value of such shares), such that when all the Sindu Napo Common Stock is finally sold, then the Investor shall have no further Sindu Equity or any other rights in Sindu, or under this Agreement

f) At any time during the Tenure, the Investor shall be entitled to convert the OCRPSs then outstanding and Sindu shall issue to the Investor such number of Shares being equivalent to the Investor Share Entitlement; provided, however, that the Investor shall exercise the conversion option attached to all the OCRPSs held by it in a single instance and such conversion is subject to and in compliance with all applicable Laws

Such indemnity shall extend to include all costs, charges and expenses which Investor may pay or incur in disputing or defending any claim or action or other proceedings where authorized in accordance with the provisions of this Clause in respect of which indemnity may be sought under this Clause

b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, without in any way limiting the obligation of Napo to indemnify the Investor Parties pursuant to the above Clause, Napo shall not be required to indemnify the Investor Parties for breach of any Sindu Warranties and/or Napo Warranties (A) unless written notice thereof has been given by the Investor Parties during

If Napo shall, within such thirty (30) days (or shorter) period, fail to defend such claim with counsel reasonably acceptable to the Investor Parties, the Investor Parties shall have the right, but not the obligation, to undertake the defense of such claim.
