(b) The Selling Shareholder represents and warrants to, and agrees with, each Underwriter that:

(i) To the extent that any statements made in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus (in each case, exclusive of any amendment or supplement thereto) are made in reliance upon and in conformity with the Selling Shareholder Information (as defined below), (i) such statements made in the Registration Statement and any amendment thereto, as of each Effective Time, did not and will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; (ii) such statements made in the General Disclosure Package did not and will not, as of the Applicable Time and at the Closing Date or Additional Closing Date, as the case may be, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; and (iii) such statements made in the Prospectus, as then amended or supplemented, as of the Applicable Time, at the time filed with the Commission and as of the Closing Date or Additional Closing Date, as the case may be, did not and will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. Each of the Company, the Underwriters and the Selling Shareholder acknowledges and agrees that for all purposes of this Agreement, the only information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of the Selling Shareholder expressly for use in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus (the “Selling Shareholder Information”) is (i) the legal names of the Selling Shareholder as contained in the table under the heading “Selling Shareholder” in the Prospectus; (ii) information regarding the number of Ordinary Shares beneficially owned by the Selling Shareholder as contained in the table next to the name of the Selling Shareholder under the heading “Selling Shareholder” in the Prospectus; (iii) the number of Ordinary Shares proposed to be sold by the Selling Shareholder as contained in the table next to the name of the Selling Shareholder under the heading “Selling Shareholder” in the Prospectus; (iv) information regarding the number of Ordinary Shares beneficially owned by the Selling Shareholder after the sale of the Securities as contained in the table next to the name of the Selling Shareholder under the heading “Selling Shareholder” in the Prospectus; and (v) any applicable related footnotes as set forth under the heading “Selling Shareholder” in the Prospectus.

(iii) As of the Applicable Time, the Selling Shareholder is the beneficial owner of the Securities to be sold by it hereunder free and clear of all liens, encumbrances, equities and claims, and as of the Closing Date or the Additional Closing Date, as the case may be, and upon the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, such Securities will be free and clear of all liens, encumbrances, equities and claims. Upon payment of the Securities to be sold by the Selling Shareholder hereunder, delivery of such Securities and the crediting of such shares on the books of The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) to securities accounts of the several Underwriters (assuming that neither DTC nor any such Underwriter has notice (as defined in Section 8-105 of the New York Uniform Commercial Code (“UCC”)) of any adverse claim (within the meaning of Section 8-102(a)(1) of the UCC) to such Securities), then, assuming appropriate entries to the accounts of the several Underwriters on the records of DTC have been made pursuant to the UCC, the Underwriters will have acquired a security entitlement (within the meaning of Section 8-102(a)(17) of the UCC) to such Securities and no action based on an adverse claim (within the meaning of Section 8-102(a)(1) of the UCC) may be asserted against such Underwriters with respect to such security entitlement.

(iv) This Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by or on behalf of the Selling Shareholder. The Selling Shareholder has the full right, power and authority to perform its obligations hereunder.

(vi) None of the execution, delivery or performance by the Selling Shareholder of its obligations under this Agreement, or the consummation of any other of the transactions herein contemplated, or the fulfillment of the terms hereof will contravene (i) the charter and by-laws of the Selling Shareholder, (ii) any agreement or other instrument binding upon the Selling Shareholder or any of its subsidiaries or (iii) any provision of applicable law or any judgment, order or decree of any governmental body, agency or court having jurisdiction over the Selling Shareholder or any of its subsidiaries, except for, in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) above, such contravention that would not, singly or in the aggregate, materially adversely affect the Selling Shareholder’s ability to perform its obligations under this Agreement or the Underwriter’s ability to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby.

The Selling Shareholder and its subsidiaries have instituted, maintain and enforce, policies and procedures reasonably designed to ensure compliance with Sanctions.

(ix) Neither the Selling Shareholder, nor any of its subsidiaries, nor, to the Selling Shareholder’s knowledge, any director, officer, employee, agent or affiliate of the Selling Shareholder or any of its subsidiaries, acting on behalf of the Selling Shareholder or any of its subsidiaries, has taken any action, directly or indirectly, that violated or would result in a violation by such persons of any provision of the FCPA, the U.K. Bribery Act or other applicable anti-bribery or anti-corruption laws, including (i) using any corporate funds for any unlawful contribution, gift, entertainment or other unlawful expense relating to political activity; (ii) making or taking an act in furtherance of an offer, promise or authorization of any direct or indirect unlawful payment to any foreign or domestic government official or employee from corporate funds (including to any “foreign official” (as such term is defined in the FCPA) or any political party or official thereof or any candidate for political office); or (iii) making, offering, agreeing, requesting or taking an act in furtherance of any unlawful bribe, rebate, payoff, influence payment, kickback or other unlawful payment or benefit.

(xi) The Selling Shareholder will deliver to the Underwriters prior to or at the Closing Date a properly completed and executed United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 or W-8 (or other applicable form).

The Underwriters may exercise the option to purchase Option Shares at any time in whole, or from time to time in part, on or before the thirtieth day following the date of the Prospectus, by written notice from the Representatives to the Company and the Selling Shareholder. Such notice shall set forth the aggregate number of Option Shares as to which the option is being exercised and the date and time when the Option Shares are to be delivered and paid for, which may be the same date and time as the Closing Date (as hereinafter defined) but shall not be earlier than the Closing Date nor later than the tenth full business day (as hereinafter defined) after the date of such notice (unless such time and date are postponed in accordance with the provisions of Section 9 hereof).

(xi) The Company will not take, directly or indirectly, any action designed to cause or result in or that would constitute or that might reasonably be expected to constitute, under the Exchange Act or otherwise, stabilization or manipulation of the price of the Ordinary Shares to facilitate the sale or resale of the Securities.

(xii) For a period of 30 days after the date of the Prospectus, the Company will not (i) offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or warrant to purchase, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, or file with the Commission a registration statement under the Act relating to, any Ordinary Shares or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Ordinary Shares, or publicly disclose the intention to make any offer, sale, pledge, disposition or filing, or (ii) enter into any swap or other agreement that transfers, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the Ordinary Shares or any such other securities, whether any such transaction described in clause (i) or (ii) above is to be settled by delivery of Ordinary Shares or such other securities, in cash or otherwise, without the prior written consent of Xxxxxxx Xxxxx & Co.

(v) The Representatives shall have received an opinion, dated as of the Closing Date or the Additional Closing Date, as the case may be, and addressed to the Representatives, of NautaDutilh N.V., Dutch counsel for the Company, substantially in the form heretofore agreed upon among the Company and the Representatives.

(B) since the date of the most recent financial statements included or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, there has been no material adverse change or development that could reasonably be expected to, singly or in the aggregate, result in a material adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise), earnings, business or properties of the Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, whether or not arising from transactions in the ordinary course of business, except as set forth in or contemplated in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus (in each case, exclusive of any amendment or supplement thereto).

(x) The Company shall have complied with any request by the Representatives with respect to the furnishing of copies of the Prospectus in compliance with the provision of Section 5(a)(viii) hereof.

7. Indemnification and Contribution. (a) The Company will indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter, its directors, officers, employees, and agents and the affiliates of such Underwriter and each person, if any, who controls such Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, against any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which any such person or entity may become subject, under the Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement or any amendment thereto or caused by any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Preliminary Prospectus, in the Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, any “issuer information” filed or required to be filed pursuant to Rule 433(d) under the Act, any other Free Writing Prospectus or “written communication” (as defined in Rule 405 under the Act), the General Disclosure Package (or, in each case, any amendment or supplement to any of the foregoing, including the General Disclosure Package as subsequently amended or supplemented), or caused by any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and will reimburse each indemnified party for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement in or omission or alleged omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with the Underwriter Information or the Selling Shareholder Information.

(b) The Selling Shareholder will indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter, its directors, officers, employees, and agents and the affiliates of such Underwriter and each person, if any, who controls such Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, against any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which any such person or entity may become subject, under the Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement or any amendment thereto or caused by any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein not misleading, or (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Preliminary Prospectus, in the Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, any other Free Writing Prospectus or “written communication” (as defined in Rule 405 under the Act), the General Disclosure Package (or, in each case, any amendment or supplement to any of the foregoing, including the General Disclosure Package that has subsequently been amended or supplemented), or caused by any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, in each case, to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission relates to the Selling Shareholder Information; and will reimburse each indemnified party for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action as such expenses are incurred; provided, that the Selling Shareholder’s obligation to indemnify and hold harmless hereunder will be limited to the net amount of proceeds received by the Selling Shareholder from the offering of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement.

(c) Each Underwriter agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, officers, employees, agents and affiliates and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, and the Selling Shareholder, its directors, officers, employees, agents and affiliates and each person, if any, who controls the Selling Shareholder within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act against any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which any such person or entity may become subject, under the Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon, (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement or any amendment thereto or caused by any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Preliminary Prospectus, the Prospectus or the General Disclosure Package (or, in each case, any amendment or supplement to any of the foregoing, including the General Disclosure Package as subsequently amended or supplemented) or caused by any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with the written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Underwriter through the Representatives expressly for use in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus (the “Underwriter Information”) and will reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by an indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action as such expenses are incurred; it being understood and agreed upon that the Underwriter Information consists only of (i) the name of such Underwriter, (ii) the sentence related to concessions and reallowances and (iii) the information under the heading “Price Stabilization, Syndicate Covering Transactions and Penalty Bids” under the caption “Underwriting” in the Prospectus.

(d) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 7 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against an indemnifying party under paragraph (a), (b) or (c) above, notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof; but the failure to notify the indemnifying party (i) shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have under paragraph (a), (b) or (c) above except and to the extent it did not otherwise learn of such action and such failure results in the forfeiture by the indemnifying party of substantial rights and defenses and (ii) will not, in any event, relieve the indemnifying party from any obligations to any indemnified party other than the indemnification obligation provided in paragraph (a), (b) or (c) above. The indemnifying party shall be entitled to appoint counsel (including local counsel) of the indemnifying party’s choice at the indemnifying party’s expense to represent the indemnified party in any action for which indemnification is sought (in which case the indemnifying party shall not thereafter be responsible for the fees and expenses of any separate counsel, other than one local counsel in each jurisdiction in which proceedings have been brought, if not appointed by the indemnifying party or retained by the indemnified party or parties except as set forth below); provided, however, that such counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. Notwithstanding the indemnifying party’s election to appoint counsel (including local counsel) to represent the indemnified party in an action, the indemnified party shall have the right to employ separate counsel (including local counsel), and the indemnifying party shall bear the reasonable fees, costs and expenses of such separate counsel if (i) the use of counsel chosen by the indemnifying party to represent the indemnified party would present such counsel with a conflict of interest; (ii) the actual or potential defendants in, or targets of, any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties that are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party; (iii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice of the institution of such action; or (iv) the indemnifying party shall authorize the indemnified party to employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party. An indemnifying party will not, without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties to such claim or action) unless such settlement, compromise or consent (x) includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such claim, action, suit or proceeding and (y) does not include any statement as to or any admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified person.

(e) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 7 is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under subsection (a), (b) or (c) above in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) for which indemnification is provided by an indemnifying party therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to in subsection (a), (b) or (c) above (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company and the Selling Shareholder, on the one hand, and the Underwriters on the other, respectively, from the offering of the Securities or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law or if unavailable for any reason, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Company and the Selling Shareholder, on the one hand, or the Underwriters, on the other, respectively, in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) from the offering of the Securities as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company and the Selling Shareholder, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other, shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the net proceeds (after deducting underwriting commissions and discounts, but before deducting expenses) received by the Selling Shareholder from the sale of the Securities and the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Underwriters in connection therewith, in each case as set forth on the cover page of the Prospectus. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company and the Selling Shareholder, on the one hand, and the Underwriters on the other and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission. The amount paid by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to in the first sentence of this subsection (e) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any action or claim which is the subject of this subsection (e). The Company, the Selling Shareholder and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution were determined by pro rata allocation or any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above. Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection (e), (1) no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the underwriting discounts and commissions received by such Underwriter with respect to the offering of the Securities exceeds the amount of any damages which such Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission and (2) the Selling Shareholder shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which (A) the net proceeds received by the Selling Shareholder from the sale of Securities exceeds (B) the amount of any damages which the Selling Shareholder have otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this subsection (e), (i) each person who controls an Underwriters within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act and director, officer, employee, agent and affiliate of an Underwriter shall have the same rights to contribution as such Underwriter, (ii) each person who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act and each director, officer, employee, agent and affiliate of the Company shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company and (iii) each person who controls the Selling Shareholder within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act and each director, officer, employee, agent and affiliate of the Selling Shareholder shall have the same rights to contribution as the Selling Shareholder, subject in each case to the applicable terms and conditions of this subsection (e).

(f) The obligations of the Company and the Selling Shareholder under this Section shall be in addition to any liability which the Company and the Selling Shareholder may otherwise have.

8. Termination; Survival of Certain Representations and Obligations; Certain Expenses. If any of the conditions set forth in Section 6 hereof are not satisfied on or prior to the Closing Date or, in the case of the Option Shares, prior to the Additional Closing Date, or the parties hereto breach their obligations hereunder, this Agreement and the obligations hereunder may be terminated by the Representatives in their absolute discretion. The reimbursement, indemnification and contribution agreements contained in this Agreement and the representations, warranties and covenants in this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect regardless of (i) any termination of this Agreement, (ii) any investigation made by or on behalf of any Underwriter or any controlling person of the foregoing, or by or on behalf of the Company or its directors or officers or by or on behalf of the Selling Shareholder or their directors or officers and (iii) delivery of and payment for the Securities under this Agreement and the sale of the Securities. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to this Section 8 or if for any reason the purchase of the Securities by the Underwriters is not consummated, each of the Selling Shareholder and the Company shall remain responsible for the expenses to be paid or reimbursed by it pursuant to Section 7 and the respective obligations of the Company, the Selling Shareholder and the Underwriters pursuant to Section 7 shall remain in effect, and if any Securities have been purchased hereunder the representations and warranties in Section 2 and all obligations under Section 5 shall also remain in effect. In addition, if the purchase of the Securities by the Underwriters is not consummated for any reason, other than the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9 hereof, the Company and the Selling Shareholder will reimburse the Underwriters for all out-of-pocket expenses (including fees and disbursements of counsel) reasonably incurred by them in connection with the offering of the Securities. The provisions of Sections 7 and Section 8 hereof shall survive the termination or cancellation of this Agreement.

9. Defaulting Underwriter.

(a) If, on the Closing Date or the Additional Closing Date, as the case may be, any Underwriter defaults on its obligation to purchase the Securities that it has agreed to purchase hereunder on such date, the non-defaulting Underwriters may in their discretion arrange for the purchase of such Securities by other persons satisfactory to the Company and the Selling Shareholder on the terms contained in this Agreement. If, within 36 hours after any such default by any Underwriter, the non-defaulting Underwriters do not arrange for the purchase of such Securities, then the Company and the Selling Shareholder shall be entitled to a further period of 36 hours within which to procure other persons satisfactory to the non-defaulting Underwriters to purchase such Securities on such terms. If other persons become obligated or agree to purchase the Securities of a defaulting Underwriter, the non-defaulting Underwriters, the Company or the Selling Shareholder may postpone the Closing Date or the Additional Closing Date, as the case may be, for up to five business days in order to effect any changes that, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, counsel for the Selling Shareholder or counsel for the Underwriters may be necessary to the Registration Statement and the Prospectus or in any other document or arrangement, and the Company agrees to promptly prepare any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement and the Prospectus that effects any such changes. As used in this Agreement, the term “Underwriter” includes, for all purposes of this Agreement unless the context otherwise requires, any person not listed in Schedule I hereto that, pursuant to this Section 9, purchases Securities that a defaulting Underwriter agreed but failed to purchase.

(b) If, after giving effect to any arrangements for the purchase of the Securities of a defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters by the non-defaulting Underwriters, the Company and the Selling Shareholder as provided in paragraph (a) above, the aggregate number of Securities that remain unpurchased on the Closing Date or the Additional Closing Date, as the case may be, does not exceed one-eleventh of the aggregate number of Securities to be purchased on such date, then the Company and the Selling Shareholder shall have the right to require each non-defaulting Underwriter to purchase the number of Securities that such Underwriter agreed to purchase hereunder on such date plus such Underwriter’s pro rata share (based on the number of Securities that such Underwriter agreed to purchase on such date) of the Securities of such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters for which such arrangements have not been made.

(c) If, after giving effect to any arrangements for the purchase of the Securities of a defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters by the non-defaulting Underwriters, the Company and the Selling Shareholder as provided in paragraph (a) above, the aggregate number of Securities that remain unpurchased on the Closing Date or the Additional Closing Date, as the case may be exceeds one-eleventh of the aggregate amount of Securities to be purchased on such date, or if the Company and the Selling Shareholder shall not exercise the right described in paragraph (b) above, then this Agreement or, with respect to any Additional Closing Date, the obligation of the Underwriters to purchase Option Shares on the Additional Closing Date, as the case may be, shall terminate without liability on the part of the non-defaulting Underwriters. Any termination of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 9 shall be without liability on the part of the Company, except that the Company will continue to be liable for the payment of expenses as set forth in Section 5(a) hereof, the Selling Shareholder will continue to be liable for the payment of expenses as set forth in Section 5(b) hereof and the provisions of Section 7 hereof shall not terminate and shall remain in effect.

(d) Nothing contained herein shall relieve a defaulting Underwriter of any liability it may have to the Company or any non-defaulting Underwriter for damages caused by its default.

State Tech. §§ 301-309), as amended from time to time, or other applicable law) or other transmission method shall be deemed to have been duly and validly delivered and be valid and effective for all purposes.

13. No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility. The Company, the Selling Shareholder, and the Underwriters acknowledge and agree that (i) the purchase and sale of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement is an arm’s-length commercial transaction between the Company, and/or the Selling Shareholder, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other, (ii) in connection therewith and with the process leading to such transaction the Underwriters are acting solely as principals and not the agents or fiduciaries of the Company or the Selling Shareholder, (iii) no Underwriter has assumed an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of the Company or the Selling Shareholder with respect to the offering contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether such Underwriter has advised or is currently advising the Company or the Selling Shareholder on other matters) or any other obligation to the Company or the Selling Shareholder except the obligations expressly set forth in this Agreement, (iv) each of the Company and the Selling Shareholder has consulted its own legal and financial advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate, and (v) although the Underwriters may provide certain Regulation Best Interest documentation in connection with the offering, the Underwriters are not making a recommendation to participate in the offering or sell any Securities at the price determined in the offering and nothing set forth in such disclosures or documentation is intended to suggest that any Underwriter is making such a recommendation. Each of the Company and the Selling Shareholder agrees that it will not claim that any Underwriter has rendered advisory services of any nature or respect, or owes a fiduciary or similar duty to the Company or the Selling Shareholder, in connection with such transaction or the process leading thereto. Furthermore, the Company and the Selling Shareholder agree that they are solely responsible for making their own judgments in connection with the offering (irrespective of whether any of the Underwriters has advised or is currently advising the Company or the Selling Shareholder on related or other matters). Moreover, the Selling Shareholder acknowledges and agrees that, although the Representatives may be required or choose to provide the Selling Shareholder with certain Regulation Best Interest and Form CRS disclosures in connection with the offering, the Representatives and the other Underwriters are not making a recommendation to the Selling Shareholder to participate in the offering, enter into a “lock-up” agreement, or sell any Securities at the price determined in the offering, and nothing set forth in such disclosures is intended to suggest that the Representatives or any Underwriters are making such a recommendation.

14. APPLICABLE LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO ANY CONFLICTS OF LAW PRINCIPLES THAT WOULD APPLY THE LAW OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION.

15. Integration. This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and understanding (whether written or oral) among the Company, the Selling Shareholder and the Underwriters with respect to the subject matter hereof.

16. Jurisdiction. The Company and the Selling Shareholder hereby submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Federal and state courts in the Borough of Manhattan in The City of New York in any suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby and irrevocably and unconditionally waive any objections to the laying of venue of any such suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any transactions contemplated hereby in a Federal or state court in the Borough of Manhattan in The City of New York, and irrevocably and unconditionally waive and agree not to plead or claim in any such court that any such suit or proceeding in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

17. Waiver of Jury Trial. Each of the Company, the Selling Shareholder and the Underwriters irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any and all rights to trial by jury in any legal proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

18. Waiver of Immunity. With respect to any suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, each party irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, all immunity (whether on the basis of sovereignty or otherwise) from jurisdiction, service of process, attachment (both before and after judgment) and execution to which it might otherwise be entitled, and with respect to any such suit or proceeding, each party waives any such immunity in any court of competent jurisdiction, and will not raise or claim or cause to be pleaded any such immunity at or in respect of any such suit or proceeding, including, without limitation, any immunity pursuant to the U.S. Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act of 1976, as amended.

19. Currency.

If the United States dollars so purchased are greater than the sum originally due to such Underwriter hereunder, such Underwriter agrees to pay to the Company or the Selling Shareholder an amount equal to the excess of the dollars so purchased over the sum originally due to such Underwriter hereunder.

20. Recognition of the U.S. Special Resolution Regimes. In the event that any Underwriter is a Covered Entity and becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer from such Underwriter of this Agreement, and any interest and obligation in or under this Agreement, will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement, and any such interest and obligation, were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event that any Underwriter is a Covered Entity or a BHC Act Affiliate of such Underwriter becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under this Agreement that may be exercised against such Underwriter are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.

As Representatives of the

in Schedule I to the

Underwriting Agreement

Ladies and Gentlemen:

The undersigned understands that Xxxxxxx Xxxxx & Co. LLC, Citigroup Global Markets Inc. and Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., as representatives of the several Underwriters (the “Representatives”), propose to enter into an Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with AerCap Holdings N.V., a public limited liability company (naamloze vennootschap) organized under the laws of the Netherlands (the “Company”), and GE Capital US Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of the undersigned (the “Selling Shareholder”), providing for the public offering (the “Public Offering”) by the several Underwriters, including the Representatives, of ordinary shares, par value €0.01 per share, of the Company. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings set forth in the Underwriting Agreement.

To induce the Underwriters that may participate in the Public Offering to continue their efforts in connection with the Public Offering, the undersigned General Electric Company (“GE”), on behalf of itself and each of its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Restricted Parties”), hereby agrees that, without the prior written consent of Xxxxxxx Xxxxx & Co. LLC and Citigroup Global Markets Inc., the Restricted Parties will not, during the period ending 30 days after the date of the Prospectus (the “Restricted Period”): (a) offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, lend, or otherwise transfer or dispose of (collectively, “Transfer”), directly or indirectly, any shares of any class of stock of the Company

(collectively, the “Company Securities”) or any other securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for any Company Securities (collectively, the “Restricted Securities”); (b) enter into any swap or other arrangement that Transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of any Company Securities, whether any such transaction described in clause (a) or (b) above is to be settled by delivery of Company Securities or such other securities, in cash or otherwise; (c) file any registration statement with the Commission relating to the offering of any Restricted Securities; or (d) publicly announce any intention to engage in any of the transactions described in clauses (a) through (c) above; provided that this clause (d) shall not apply to disclosure by a Restricted Party of its general intent with respect to its Company Securities if such disclosure makes no reference to any specific transaction of the type described in clause (a), (b) or (c).

The restrictions contained in the preceding paragraph shall not apply to (a) the sale by the Selling Shareholder of the Securities to be sold pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement and the registration of the offer and sale of the Securities under the Securities Act; (b) the sale of Repurchase Shares of the Company by the Selling Shareholder to the Company pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement; (c) transactions by a Restricted Party relating to Company Securities or other securities acquired in open market transactions after the completion of the offering of the Securities; provided that any Restricted Securities transferred pursuant to clause (d) below shall be deemed to not have been acquired in open market transactions for purposes of this clause (c); (d) Transfers by a Restricted Party of Restricted Securities; provided that (i) each transferee, only to the extent such transferee is not a Restricted Party at the time of such Transfer, shall enter into a written agreement accepting the restrictions set forth herein as if it were a Restricted Party and (ii) to the extent a public announcement or filing under the Exchange Act, if any, is required of or voluntarily made by or on behalf of a Restricted Party or the Company in connection with any Transfer permitted pursuant to this clause (d), it shall include a statement to the effect that the Restricted Securities being Transferred remain subject to the restrictions set forth herein for the remainder of the Restricted Period; (e) Transfers of Restricted Securities to the Company or any of its subsidiaries; provided that any Restricted Securities received by the Company or any of its subsidiaries pursuant to such Transfer shall be subject to all of the restrictions set forth in Section 5(a)(xii) of the Underwriting Agreement; (f) the establishment of a trading plan pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act for the Transfer of Restricted Securities; provided that (i) such plan does not provide for the Transfer of Restricted Securities during the Restricted Period and (ii) to the extent a public announcement or filing under the Exchange Act, if any, is required of or voluntarily made by or on behalf of a Restricted Party or the Company regarding the establishment of such plan, such announcement or filing shall include a statement to the effect that no Transfer of Restricted Securities may be made under such plan during the Restricted Period; or (g) Transfers of Restricted Securities pursuant to a bona fide third party tender offer, merger, consolidation, stock exchange or similar transaction involving a Change of Control (as defined below) of the Company; provided that (i) any such transaction is not solicited by any of the Company, the Restricted Parties or any of their respective affiliates and (ii) in the event that such tender offer, merger, consolidation or other such transaction is not completed, the Restricted Parties’ Restricted Securities shall remain subject to the restrictions contained in this agreement (this “Agreement”). For purposes of clause (g) above, “Change of Control” shall mean the consummation of any bona fide third party tender offer, merger, purchase, consolidation or other similar transaction the result of which is that any “person” (as defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act), or group of persons, becomes the “beneficial owner”

(as defined in Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 of the Exchange Act) of 50% or more of the total voting power of the voting shares of the Company. In addition, GE, on behalf of itself and each of the other Restricted Parties, agrees that, without the prior written consent of Xxxxxxx Xxxxx & Co. LLC and Citigroup Global Markets Inc., the Restricted Parties will not, during the Restricted Period, make any demand for, or exercise any right with respect to, the registration of any Restricted Securities if such demand or exercise would result in a public announcement of or public filing (whether of a registration statement with the SEC or any other public filing) with respect to the same during the Restricted Period.

The undersigned understands that the Company and the Underwriters are relying upon this Agreement in proceeding toward consummation of the Public Offering. The undersigned further understands that this Agreement is irrevocable and shall be binding upon the undersigned’s affiliates, legal representatives, successors and assigns.

Whether or not the Public Offering actually occurs depends on a number of factors, including market conditions. Any Public Offering will only be made pursuant to an underwriting agreement, the terms of which are subject to negotiation between the Company and the Underwriters.

This Agreement shall automatically terminate upon the earlier to occur, if any, of (a) the date of termination of the Underwriting Agreement if such date occurs prior to payment for the Ordinary Shares, or (b) November 30, 2023, if the Closing Date has not occurred on or prior to such date.

This Agreement, and any claim, controversy or dispute arising under or related to this Agreement, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to its conflicts of laws principles. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same Agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by telecopier, facsimile or other electronic transmission (i.e., a “pdf’ or “tif’) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart thereof. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” “delivery,” and words of like import in or relating to this Agreement or any document to be signed in connection with this Agreement shall be deemed to include electronic signatures, deliveries or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature, physical delivery thereof or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, and the parties hereto consent to conduct the transactions contemplated hereunder by electronic means.

The undersigned acknowledges and agrees that the Underwriters have not provided any recommendation or investment advice nor have the Underwriters solicited any action from the undersigned with respect to the Public Offering of the Securities and the undersigned has consulted their own legal, accounting, financial, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent deemed appropriate. The undersigned further acknowledges and agrees that, although the Representatives may be required or choose to provide the Selling Shareholder certain Regulation Best Interest and Form CRS disclosures in connection with the Public Offering, the Representatives and the other Underwriters are not making a

recommendation to the Selling Shareholder to participate in the Public Offering, enter into this Agreement, or sell any Securities at the price determined in the Public Offering, and nothing set forth in such disclosures is intended to suggest that the Representatives or any Underwriters are making such a recommendation.
