4.1Increase in Authorized Capital. If the Board of Directors shall determine that PTS should increase its authorized capital, the Board of Directors shall give notice to the Shareholders and set a General Meeting of Shareholders for approval of the authorized capital increase. If approved by the General Meeting of Shareholders, the increase in the authorized capital of PTS shall take effect when the Articles of Association are duly amended and, when necessary, any Government approvals have been obtained.
4.2Preemptive Rights of Shareholders. Each Shareholder shall be entitled to subscribe for its Basic Share Proportion of any additional Shares issued by PTS as a result of an increase in the authorized capital as specified in Section 4.1. Upon receipt of notice from the Board of Directors of PTS's intention to issue additional Shares, each Shareholder shall notify PTS within fourteen (14) days whether it intends to purchase its Basic Share Proportion of the additional Shares to be issued. If the total number of Shares for which the Shareholders have exercised such pre-emptive right exceeds the total number of Shares to be issued, then each Shareholder exercising such pre-emptive right may acquire at least the number of Shares that bears the same ratio to the total number of Shares to be issued that such Shareholder's Basic Share Proportion bears to the aggregate Basic Share Proportion of all Shareholders giving such notice.

Should any Shareholder elect not to subscribe for its full Basic Share Proportion of the Shares then being offered (a “Non-Subscribing Shareholder”), then such Non-Subscribing Shareholder shall thereafter have no greater rights than any person or entity not a Shareholder to subscribe for Shares later offered by PTS. In the event any Shareholder fails to notify the Board of Directors in writing within such thirty (30) day period that it will subscribe to its Basic Share Proportion of the new Shares to be issued, or notifies the Board of Directors in writing that it will not subscribe to such new Shares or will subscribe to fewer new Shares than those to which it is entitled, then the Board of Directors shall first offer such Shares (the “Non-Subscribing Shareholder Shares”)
{PH007005.1} 6
to the other Shareholders. Each Shareholder receiving such notice shall have thirty (30) days to notify PTS whether it desires to purchase its Basic Share Proportion of the Non-Subscribing Shareholder Shares. If the total number of Non-Subscribing Shareholder Shares desired by the other Shareholders exceeds the total number of Non-Subscribing Shareholder Shares to be issued, then each Shareholder desiring Non-Subscribing Shareholder Shares may acquire at least the number of Non-Subscribing Shareholder Shares that bears the same ratio to the total number of Non-Subscribing Shareholder Shares to be issued that such Shareholder's Basic Share Proportion bears to the aggregate Basic Share Proportion of all Shareholders giving such notice; provided that should any Shareholder accept in writing less than the number of Shares to which it would be entitled under the foregoing, such Shareholder shall be entitled only to the number of Shares it has so accepted, and the remaining Shares shall be divided proportionately as above among those Shareholders who have accepted more than the number of Shares to which they would be entitled in accordance with the foregoing. If the other Shareholders do not subscribe for Non-Subscribing Shareholder Shares within the time limits established above, then the Board of Directors, subject to the Articles of Association of PTS, may offer such Shares to third parties, with the prior approval of a General Meeting of Shareholders. Upon completion of the foregoing transactions, the Basic Share Proportion of each Shareholder and the third party (if applicable) shall be adjusted in accordance with its ownership percentage.

If the total number of Shares for which Shareholders have exercised such right exceeds the total number of Shares offered, or the total amount of Subordinated Shareholder Loans for which Shareholders have exercised such right exceeds the total amount of Subordinated Shareholder Loans offered, then each Shareholder exercising such right may acquire at least the number of Shares and assume at least the amount of Subordinated Shareholder Loans that bears the same ratio to the total number of Shares or Subordinated Shareholder Loans offered that such Shareholder's Shares or Subordinated Shareholder Loans bear to the total number of Shares or Subordinated Shareholder Loans of all Shareholders exercising such right; provided that should any Shareholder accept less than the number of Shares or amount of Subordinated Shareholder Loans to which it would be entitled under the foregoing, such Shareholder shall be entitled only to the number of Shares or amount of Subordinated Shareholder Loans it has so accepted, and the remaining Shares and Subordinated Shareholder Loans offered for Transfer shall be divided proportionately as above among those Shareholders who have accepted more than the number of Shares or amount of Subordinated Shareholder Loans to which they would be entitled in accordance with the foregoing.

All the rights, but not the obligations, of the Defaulting Shareholder as a Shareholder, lender of Subordinated Shareholder Loans, and Party to
{PH007005.1} 12
this Agreement shall be suspended for as long as such default is unremedied or until the Defaulting Shareholder ceases to be a Shareholder and/or lender of Subordinated Shareholder Loans.
(b) Upon the expiration of the ten (10) day period described in Section 11.2(a) without remedy of the default, each non-defaulting Shareholder shall have the right to acquire all or any portion of the Shares held by the Defaulting Shareholder and assume all or any portion of the Subordinated Shareholder Loans held by the Defaulting Shareholder by giving notice thereof within thirty (30) days. If the total number of Shares or total amount of Subordinated Shareholder Loans for which such notice has been given exceeds the total number of Shares or Subordinated Shareholder Loans held by the Defaulting Shareholder then each Shareholder giving notice (an “Accepting Shareholder”) may acquire at least the number of Shares and may assume at least the amount of Subordinated Shareholder Loans that bears the same ratio to the total number of Shares or Subordinated Shareholder Loans (as the case may be) of the Defaulting Shareholder that such Accepting Shareholder's respective Basic Share Proportion and Basic Loan Proportion bears to the aggregate Basic Share Proportions and Basic Loan Proportions of all the Accepting Shareholders. The Defaulting Shareholder shall transfer the appropriate number of its Shares and assign the appropriate amount of its Subordinated Shareholder Loans to each of the Accepting Shareholders within ten (10) days of receipt of such notice from the Accepting Shareholder, and each Shareholder's Basic Share Proportion and Basic Loan Proportion shall be adjusted accordingly. The purchase price for the Shares to be paid by the Accepting Shareholder shall be fifty percent (50%) of the aggregate amount paid up on such Shares by the Defaulting Shareholder, or the book value of such Shares as determined by the Auditor, whichever is less. The purchase price for the Subordinated Shareholder Loans shall be fifty percent (50%) of the aggregate outstanding principal and interest then due on the Subordinated Shareholder Loans to the Defaulting Shareholder. In either case the purchase price shall be paid on the date the Accepting Shareholder receives the Shares or the assignment of the Subordinated Shareholder Loans from the Defaulting Shareholder, or, in the case of the Shares, as soon thereafter as the book value may be determined by the Auditor.
(c) If the total number of Shares or the total amount of the Subordinated Shareholder Loans accepted or assumed by the Accepting Shareholders is less than the total number of Shares owned or total amount of outstanding Subordinated Shareholder Loans held by the Defaulting Shareholder, the Defaulting Shareholder shall be required to sell any remaining Shares and assign any remaining Subordinated Shareholder Loans to a third party, designated by the Board of Directors and approved by a General Meeting of Shareholders, for the same price and payment terms as provided in Section 11.2(b) in the case of Transfer to an Accepting Shareholder. Upon Transfer of the Shares and Subordinated Shareholder Loans to a third party, the Basic Share Proportion and Basic Loan Proportion of each Shareholder and the third party shall be adjusted accordingly. For the execution of such sale of Shares and assignment of Subordinated Shareholder Loans to a third party, the Board of Directors shall be empowered for and on behalf of the Defaulting Shareholder to apply to, appear before, submit information, obtain approval from the competent authorities and to take any other action to accomplish the above Transfer of Shares and Subordinated Shareholder Loans.
