ARTICLE 1
CONTRIBUTION
Section 1.1 Contributed Common Stock. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, each Investor hereby agrees to transfer, contribute and deliver to Holdings as of the Contribution Closing (as defined below) all of such Investor’s Rollover Shares set across from his, her or its name on Annex A attached hereto. In consideration for the Rollover Shares, Holdings hereby agrees to issue to each Investor, as of the Contribution Closing, the number of shares of Holdings Shares equal to the Rollover Shares Value divided by the value of a Holdings Share, which the parties hereby agree shall be the same price per share paid by CVC Capital Partners VII (A) L.P. for its indirect purchase of identical Holdings Shares in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement (the “Share Purchase Price”). For purposes of this section, the “Rollover Shares Value” shall equal the Offer Price multiplied by the number of such Investor’s Rollover Shares.
Section 1.2 Delivery of Contribution and Stock Certificates. Subject to the satisfaction (or waiver by the parties entitled to the benefit hereof) of the conditions set forth in Section 1.3 below, the closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Contribution Closing”) shall be deemed to have occurred immediately prior to the Effective Time. At the Contribution Closing, Holdings will issue to each Investor the Holdings Shares, against (i) the transfer and contribution to Holdings of the Rollover Shares (including the delivery of certificates evidencing the applicable number of Shares owned, beneficially and of record, by such Investor, duly endorsed to Holdings), free and clear of any Encumbrances, by such Investor and (ii) a duly executed joinder to the stockholders agreement of Holdings by such Investor. At the Effective Time, the Holdings Shares shall have the rights, preferences, allocations, privileges and restrictions set forth in the stockholders agreement of Holdings, which stockholders agreement shall contain customary provisions relating to, among other provisions, transfer restrictions, tag-along and drag-along provisions, repurchase rights in favor of Holdings and such other customary terms, in each case as mutually acceptable to the parties.
Section 1.3 Closing Condition; Failure of the Merger to Occur. The obligations of the parties to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be subject to the satisfaction or waiver by Parent, Purchaser and/or the Company, as applicable, of all of the conditions to the consummation of the Merger, as set forth in the Merger Agreement. If for any reason the Merger contemplated by the Merger Agreement fails to occur but the Contribution Closing has already taken place, then Holdings shall return to each Investor, such Investor’s Rollover Shares.
