Registration Rights
Section 2.01.      Demand Registration .
(a)      Any Holder(s) of Registrable Securities (the “ Initiating Holder ”) shall have the right to request that the Company file a Registration Statement, on behalf of itself or, in the case of any member of the Shareholder Group, on behalf of any other member of the Shareholder Group, with the SEC on the appropriate registration form for all or part of the Registrable Securities held by such Initiating Holder, by delivering a written request thereof to the Company specifying the number of shares of Registrable Securities such Initiating Holder wishes to register (a “ Demand Registration ”); provided , however, that the anticipated aggregate number of Company Ordinary Shares subject to such Demand Registration exceeds 2% of the total issued and outstanding Company Shares. The Company shall (i) within five (5) Business Days of the receipt of a Demand Registration, give written notice of such Demand Registration to all Holders of Registrable Securities, (ii) use its reasonable best efforts to prepare and file the Registration Statement as expeditiously as possible but in any event within 45 days of such request, and (iii) use reasonable best efforts to cause the Registration Statement to become effective in respect of each Demand Registration in accordance with the intended method of distribution set forth in the written request delivered by the Initiating Holder; provided , however , that the Company shall not be required to cause such Registration Statement to become effective prior to the Listing Date. The Company shall include in such Registration all Registrable Securities with respect to which the Company receives, within the five (5) Business Days immediately following the receipt by the Holder(s) of such notice from the Company, a request for inclusion in the Registration from the Holder(s) thereof. Each such request from a Holder of Registrable Securities for inclusion in the Registration shall also specify the aggregate amount of Registrable Securities proposed to be Registered. The Initiating Holder may request that the Registration Statement be on any appropriate form, including Form F-4 in the case of an Exchange Offer or a Shelf Registration Statement, and the Company shall effect the Registration on the form so requested.

8



(b)      The Holder(s) may collectively make a total of six (6) Demand Registration requests pursuant to Section 2.01(a) (including any exercise of rights to Demand Registration transferred pursuant to Section 3.08 ); provided that the Holder(s) may not make more than two (2) Demand Registration requests in any 365-day period.
(c)      The Company shall be deemed to have effected a Registration for purposes of this Section 2.01 if the Registration Statement is declared effective by the SEC or becomes effective upon filing with the SEC and remains effective until the earlier of (i) the date when all Registrable Securities thereunder have been Sold and (ii) 60 days from the effective date of the Registration Statement (or from the date the applicable Prospectus is filed with the SEC if the Company is satisfying a request for a Demand Registration by filing a Prospectus under an effective Shelf Registration Statement) (the “ Registration Period ”). No Registration shall be deemed to have been effective if the conditions to closing specified in the underwriting agreement or dealer manager agreement, if any, entered into in connection with such Registration are not satisfied by reason of a wrongful act, misrepresentation or breach of such applicable underwriting agreement or dealer manager agreement by the Company. If during the Registration Period, such Registration is interfered with by any stop order, injunction or other order or requirement of the SEC or other Governmental Entity or the need to update or supplement the Registration Statement, the Registration Period shall be extended on a day-for-day basis for any period in which the Holders are unable to complete an offering as a result of such stop order, injunction or other order or requirement of the SEC or other Governmental Entity.
(d)      With respect to any Registration Statement, whether filed or to be filed pursuant to this Agreement, if the Company shall reasonably determine, upon the advice of legal counsel, that maintaining the effectiveness of such Registration Statement or filing an amendment or supplement thereto (or, if no Registration Statement has yet been filed, filing such a Registration Statement) would require the public disclosure of material nonpublic information concerning any transaction or negotiations involving the Company or any of its consolidated Subsidiaries that would materially interfere with such transaction or negotiations (a “ Disadvantageous Condition ”), the Company may, for the shortest period reasonably practicable, and in any event for not more than 60 consecutive calendar days (a “ Blackout Period ”), notify the Holders whose offers and Sales of Registrable Securities are covered (or to be covered) by such Registration Statement (a “ Blackout Notice ”) that such Registration Statement is unavailable for use (or will not be filed as requested). Upon the receipt of any such Blackout Notice, the Holders shall forthwith discontinue use of the Prospectus contained in any effective Registration Statement; provided , that, if at the time of receipt of such Blackout Notice any Holder shall have Sold its Registrable Securities (or have signed a firm commitment underwriting agreement with respect to the purchase of such shares) and the Disadvantageous Condition is not of a nature that would require a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement, then the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to take such action as to eliminate any restriction imposed by federal securities laws on the timely delivery of such Registrable Securities. When any Disadvantageous Condition as to which a Blackout Notice has been previously delivered shall cease to exist, the Company shall as promptly as reasonably practicable notify the Holders and take such actions in respect of such Registration Statement as are otherwise required by this Agreement. The effectiveness period for any Demand Registration

9



for which the Company has given notice of a Blackout Period shall be increased by the length of time of such Blackout Period. In connection with the Company’s Registration obligation under this Section 2.01 and Section 2.03 , Section 2.04 and Section 2.05 , the Company shall not impose, in any 365-day period, Blackout Periods more than twice, and any such Blackout Periods may not last, in the aggregate, in excess of 90 calendar days during such 365-day period. If the Company declares a Blackout Period with respect to a Demand Registration for a Registration Statement that has not yet been declared effective, (i) the Holders may by notice to the Company withdraw the related Demand Registration request without such Demand Registration request counting against the number of Demand Registration requests permitted to be made under Section 2.01(b) and (ii) the Holders shall not be responsible for any of the Company’s related Registration Expenses.
(e)      If the Initiating Holder so indicates at the time of its request pursuant to Section 2.01(a) , such offering of Registrable Securities shall be in the form of an Underwritten Offering or an Exchange Offer, and the Company shall include such information in the written notice to the Holders required under Section 2.01(a) . In the event that the Initiating Holder intends to Sell the Registrable Securities by means of an Underwritten Offering or Exchange Offer, the right of any Holder to include Registrable Securities in such registration shall be conditioned upon such Holder’s participation in such Underwritten Offering or Exchange Offer and the inclusion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in the Underwritten Offering or the Exchange Offer to the extent provided herein. The Holders of a majority of the outstanding Registrable Securities being included in any Underwritten Offering or Exchange Offer shall select the underwriter(s) in the case of an Underwritten Offering or the dealer manager(s) in the case of an Exchange Offer; provided that such underwriter(s) or dealer manager(s) are reasonably acceptable to the Company.
(f)      If the managing underwriter or underwriters of a proposed Underwritten Offering of Registrable Securities included in a Registration pursuant to this Section 2.01 inform(s) in writing the Holders participating in such Registration, with a copy of such writing provided to the Company, that, in its or their opinion, the number of securities requested to be included in such Registration exceeds the number that can be Sold in such offering without being likely to have a significant adverse effect on the price, timing or distribution of the securities offered or the market for the securities offered, the number of Registrable Securities to be included in such Registration shall be reduced to the maximum number recommended by the managing underwriter or underwriter and allocated pro rata among the Holders, including the Initiating Holder, in proportion to the number of Registrable Securities each Holder has requested to be included in such Registration; provided , that the Initiating Holder may notify the Company in writing that the Registration Statement shall be abandoned or withdrawn, in which event the Company shall abandon or withdraw such Registration Statement. In the event the Initiating Holder notifies the Company that such Registration Statement shall be abandoned or withdrawn, such Holder shall not be deemed to have requested a Demand Registration pursuant to Section 2.01(a) , and the Company shall not be deemed to have effected a Demand Registration pursuant to Section 2.01(b) . If the amount of Registrable Securities to be underwritten has not been limited in accordance with the first sentence of this Section 2.01(f) , the Company and the holders of Company Shares or, if the Registrable Securities include securities other than

10



Company Shares, the holders of securities of the same class of those securities included in the Registrable Securities, in each case, other than the Holders (“ Other Holders ”), may include such securities for their own account or for the account of Other Holders in such Registration if the underwriter(s) so agree and to the extent that, in the opinion of such underwriter(s), the inclusion of such additional amount will not adversely affect the offering of the Registrable Securities included in such Registration.
Section 2.02.      Piggyback Registrations .
(a)      If the Company proposes to file a Registration Statement (other than a Shelf Registration) or a Prospectus supplement filed pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement under the Securities Act with respect to any offering of such securities for its own account and/or for the account of any Other Holders (other than (i) a Registration under Section 2.01 , (ii) a Registration pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-8, S-4 or F-4 or similar form that relates to a transaction subject to Rule 145 under the Securities Act, (iii) any form that does not include substantially the same information, other than information relating to the selling holders or their plan of distribution, as would be required to be included in a Registration Statement covering the sale of the Registrable Securities, (iv) in connection with any dividend reinvestment or similar plan, (v) for the sole purpose of offering securities to another entity or its security holders in connection with the acquisition of assets or securities of such entity or any similar transaction or (vi) a Registration in which the only Company Shares being registered are Company Shares issuable upon conversion of debt securities that are also being registered) (a “ Company Public Sale ”), then, as soon as practicable, but in any event not less than ten (10) Business Days prior to the proposed date of filing such Registration Statement, the Company shall give written notice of such proposed filing to each Holder, and such notice shall offer such Holders the opportunity to Register under such Registration Statement such number of Registrable Securities as each such Holder may request in writing (a “ Piggyback Registration ”). Subject to Section 2.02(b) and Section 2.02(c) , the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to include in a Registration Statement with respect to a Company Public Sale all Registrable Securities that are requested to be included therein within five (5) Business Days after the receipt of any such notice; provided , however , that if, at any time after giving written notice of its intention to Register any securities and prior to the effective date of the Registration Statement filed in connection with such Registration, the Company shall determine for any reason not to Register or to delay Registration of the Company Public Sale, the Company may, at its election, give written notice of such determination to each such Holder and, thereupon, (x) in the case of a determination not to Register, shall be relieved of its obligation to Register any Registrable Securities in connection with such Registration, without prejudice, however, to the rights of any Holder to request that such Registration be effected as a Demand Registration under Section 2.01 and (y) in the case of a determination to delay Registration, shall be permitted to delay Registering any Registrable Securities for the same period as the delay in Registering such other Company Shares in the Company Public Sale. No Registration effected under this Section 2.02 shall relieve the Company of its obligation to effect any Demand Registration under Section 2.01 . For purposes of clarification, the Company’s filing of a Shelf Registration Statement shall not be deemed to be a Company Public Sale; provided , however , that any prospectus supplement filed pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement with respect to an

11



offering of Company Shares for its own account and/or for the account of any other Persons will be a Company Public Sale unless such offering qualifies for an exemption from the Company Public Sale definition in this Section 2.02(a) .
(b)      In the case of any Underwritten Offering, each Holder shall have the right to withdraw such Holder’s request for inclusion of its Registrable Securities in such Underwritten Offering pursuant to Section 2.02(a) at any time prior to the execution of an underwriting agreement by giving written notice to the Company of such Holder’s request to withdraw and, subject to the preceding clause, each Holder shall be permitted to withdraw all or part of such Holder’s Registrable Securities from a Piggyback Registration at any time prior to the effective date thereof.
(c)      If the managing underwriter or underwriters of any proposed Underwritten Offering of a class of Registrable Securities included in a Piggyback Registration informs the Company and each Holder in writing that, in its or their opinion, the number of securities of such class that such Holder and any other Persons intend to include in such offering exceeds the number that can be Sold in such offering without being likely to have a material adverse effect on the price, timing or distribution of the securities offered or the market for the securities offered, then the securities to be included in such Registration shall be (i) first, all securities of the Company and any other Persons (other than the Company’s executive officers and directors) for whom the Company is effecting the Registration, as the case may be, proposes to Sell, (ii) second, the number, if any, of Registrable Securities of such class that, in the opinion of such managing underwriter or underwriters, can be Sold without having such adverse effect, with such number to be allocated pro rata among the Holders that have requested to participate in such Registration based on the relative number of Registrable Securities of such class requested by such Holder to be included in such Sale, (iii) third, the number of securities of executive officers and directors of the Company for whom the Company is effecting the Registration, as the case may be, with such number to be allocated pro rata among the executive officers and directors and (iv) fourth, any other securities eligible for inclusion in such Registration, allocated among the holders of such securities in such proportion as the Company and those holders may agree.
(d)      After a Holder has been notified of its opportunity to include Registrable Securities in a Piggyback Registration, such Holder (i) shall treat the Offering Confidential Information as confidential information, (ii) shall not use any Offering Confidential Information for any purpose other than to evaluate whether to include its Registrable Securities (or other Company Shares) in such Piggyback Registration and (iii) shall not disclose any Offering Confidential Information to any Person other than such of its agents, employees, advisors and counsel as have a need to know such Offering Confidential Information, and to cause such agents, employees, advisors and counsel to comply with the requirements of this Section 2.02(d) ; provided , that any such Holder may disclose Offering Confidential Information if such disclosure is required by legal process, but such Holder shall reasonably cooperate with the Company to limit the extent of such disclosure through protective order or otherwise, and to seek confidential treatment of the Offering Confidential Information.

(a)      The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to file, no later than 45 days following any written request from any Initiating Holder, a Registration Statement for a Shelf Registration on a Long-Form Shelf covering the resale of all of the Registrable Securities on a delayed or continuous basis and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Long-Form Shelf to become effective as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter; provided , however , that the Company shall not be required to cause such Registration Statement to become effective prior to the Listing Date. The Company shall maintain the Long-Form Shelf in accordance with the terms hereof. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to convert the Long-Form Shelf to a Short-Form Shelf as soon as reasonably practicable after the Company is eligible to use a Short-Form Shelf. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause such Shelf Registration Statement to remain effective until there are no longer any Registrable Securities that are not otherwise registered under a Registration Statement. The “Plan of Distribution” section of such Shelf Registration Statement shall permit all lawful means of disposition of Registrable Securities and the other Company Shares to be registered thereunder, including firm-commitment underwritten public offerings, block trades, agented transactions, sales directly into the market, purchases or sales by brokers and sales not involving a public offering. If the SEC will not permit the Company to include all unregistered Company Shares in a Shelf Registration Statement (including the initial Shelf Registration Statement), the Company will include as many unregistered Company Shares as possible and exclude unregistered Company Shares on a pro rata basis; provided, that, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to include any unregistered Company Shares excluded from the initial Shelf Registration Statement on a future Shelf Registration Statement as promptly as practicable following such exclusion.
(b)      If the Company reasonably determines, upon the advice of counsel, that a Disadvantageous Condition exists, the Company may impose a Blackout Period on the filing or use of a Shelf Registration Statement on the same terms and conditions as set forth in Section 2.01(d) .
(c)      No Shelf Registration Statement pursuant to this Section 2.03 shall be deemed a Demand Registration pursuant to Section 2.01(a) , provided, that any takedown of shares registered under a Shelf Registration Statement in connection with an underwritten offering of Registrable Securities (including an Underwritten Block Trade) shall be deemed to be a Demand Registration by the Holder requesting such takedown. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any takedown of shares registered under the Shelf Registration Statement in connection with an offering of Registrable Securities (including a block trade or similar transaction) which is not underwritten shall not count against the number of Demand Registration requests permitted to be made under Section 2.01(b) .
(d)      If any Short-Form Shelf has been outstanding for at least three (3) years, at the end of the third year the Company shall file a new Short-Form Shelf covering all of the Registrable Securities then held by the Holders. If any Short-Form Shelf filed pursuant to this Section 2.03(d) ceases to be effective for any reason, the Company shall file a new Short-Form

13



Shelf covering all of the Registrable Securities then held by the Holders. If the Company does not pay the filing fee covering the Registrable Securities held by the Holders at the time any Short-Form Shelf is filed pursuant to this Section 2.03(d) , the Company shall pay such fee at such time or times as the Registrable Securities are to be sold pursuant thereto.
Section 2.04.      Underwritten Block Trade .
(a)      Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if an Initiating Holder wishes to engage in an underwritten block trade or similar transaction or other transaction with a two-day (or shorter) marketing period (collectively, an “ Underwritten Block Trade ”) off of a Shelf Registration Statement (either through filing an Automatic Shelf Registration Statement or through a takedown from an already existing and effective Shelf Registration Statement), then the Initiating Holder must notify the Company of the Underwritten Block Trade on the day before such offering is to commence, and the Company shall as expeditiously as reasonably possible, but subject to Section 2.03(b) , use its reasonable best efforts to facilitate such Underwritten Block Trade (which may close as early as three (3) business days after the date it commences); provided that the Initiating Holder effecting such Underwritten Block Trade shall use its reasonable best efforts to work with the Company and the underwriters in order to facilitate preparation of the registration statement, prospectus and other offering documentation related to the Underwritten Block Trade. In the event the Initiating Holder requests such an Underwritten Block Trade, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no other holder of Registrable Securities shall have any right to notice of or to participate in such Underwritten Block Trade. Any Underwritten Block Trade under which any Registrable Securities are sold will count as one (1) Demand Registration. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, an Underwritten Block Trade shall not require any minimum anticipated aggregate offering price. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any block trade or similar transaction which is not underwritten shall not count against the number of Demand Registration requests permitted to be made under Section 2.01(b) .
Section 2.05.      Distribution Transactions .
(a)      Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in the event any member of the Shareholder Group elects to effect a Distribution Transaction, such members of the Shareholder Group shall have the right to request that the Company file a Registration Statement, on behalf of itself and the other members of the Shareholder Group, with the SEC on the appropriate registration form for all or part of the Registrable Securities held by such members of the Shareholder Group, by delivering a written request thereof to the Company specifying the number of shares of Registrable Securities the members of the Shareholder Group wish to register (a “ Distribution Transaction Registration ”). The Company shall (i) use its reasonable best efforts to prepare and file the Registration Statement as expeditiously as possible but in any event within 45 days of such request, and (ii) use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Registration Statement to become effective in respect of each Distribution Transaction Registration in accordance with the intended method of distribution set forth in the written request delivered by such member of the Shareholder Group. Such requesting member of the Shareholder Group may request that the Registration Statement be on any appropriate form,

14



including a Shelf Registration Statement, and the Company shall effect the Registration on the form so requested (which may include an already existing and effective Registration Statement). For the avoidance of doubt, such request for a Distribution Transaction Registration shall not count against the number of Demand Registration requests permitted to be made under Section 2.01(b) .
(b)      The Company shall be deemed to have effected a Registration for purposes of this Section 2.05 if the Registration Statement is declared effective by the SEC or becomes effective upon filing with the SEC and remains effective for the Registration Period. If during the Registration Period, such Registration is interfered with by any stop order, injunction or other order or requirement of the SEC or other Governmental Entity or the need to update or supplement the Registration Statement, the Registration Period shall be extended on a day-for-day basis for any period in which the applicable members of the Shareholder Group are unable to complete the Distribution Transaction as a result of such stop order, injunction or other order or requirement of the SEC or other Governmental Entity.
(c)      If the Company reasonably determines, upon the advice of counsel, that a Disadvantageous Condition exists, the Company may impose a Blackout Period on the filing or use of a Shelf Registration Statement on the same terms and conditions as set forth in Section 2.01(d) .
Section 2.06.      Registration Procedures .

This indemnity shall be in addition to any liability the Company may otherwise have, including under the Purchase Agreement and the Shareholders Agreement.

full extent permitted by law, the Company, its directors, officers, agents, advisors, employees and each Person, if any, who controls (within the meaning of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act) the Company from and against any and all Losses arising out of or based upon information furnished in writing by such Holder or on such Holder’s behalf, in either case expressly for use in a Registration Statement, Prospectus, free writing prospectus or Ancillary Filing relating to such Holder’s Registrable Securities. This indemnity shall be in addition to any liability the participating Holder may otherwise have, including under the Purchase Agreement and the Shareholders Agreement. In no event shall the liability of any participating Holder hereunder be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by such holder under the Sale of the Registrable Securities giving rise to such indemnification obligation. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Company or any indemnified party.
(c)      Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 2.10 (an “ Indemnitee ”) of notice of the commencement of any action, such Indemnitee will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party (an “ Indemnifying Party ”) under this Section 2.10 , notify the Indemnifying Party in writing of the commencement thereof; but the failure so to notify the Indemnifying Party (i) will not relieve it from liability under Section 2.10(a) or Section 2.10(b) above unless and to the extent such action and such failure results in material prejudice to the Indemnifying Party and 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 Indemnitee other than the indemnification obligation provided in Section 2.10(a) or Section 2.10(b) above. The Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it shall wish, jointly with any other Indemnifying Party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to such Indemnitee (who shall not, except with the consent of the Indemnitee, be counsel to the Indemnifying Party), and, except as provided in the next sentence, after notice from the Indemnifying Party to such Indemnitee of its election to so assume the defense thereof, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to such Indemnitee for any legal expenses of other counsel or any other expenses subsequently incurred by such Indemnitee in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation. Notwithstanding the Indemnifying Party’s rights in the prior sentence, the Indemnitee shall have the right to employ its own counsel (and one local counsel), and the Indemnifying Party shall bear the reasonable fees, costs and expenses of such separate counsel if:
(A)      the use of counsel chosen by the Indemnifying Party to represent the Indemnitee would present such counsel with an actual or potential conflict of interest;
(B)      the actual or potential defendants in, or targets of, any such action include both the Indemnitee and the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnitee shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties which are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Party;

24



(C)      the Indemnifying Party shall not have employed counsel satisfactory to the Indemnitee to represent the Indemnitee within a reasonable time after notice of the institution of such action; or
(D)      the Indemnifying Party shall authorize the Indemnitee to employ separate counsel at the expense of the Indemnifying Party.
(d)      No Indemnifying Party shall, in connection with any one action or separate but substantially similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general circumstances or allegations, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys (in addition to any local counsel) for all indemnified parties. An Indemnifying Party shall not be liable under this Section 2.10 to any Indemnitee regarding any settlement 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 is consented to by such Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. No Indemnifying Party, in the defense of any such claim or litigation, shall, except with the consent of each Indemnitee (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or compromise unless such settlement or compromise (x) includes as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff therein, to such Indemnitee , of a full and final release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation and (y) does not include a statement as to, or an admission of, fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of such Indemnitee.
(e)      If for any reason the indemnification provided for in Section 2.10(a) or Section 2.10(b) is unavailable to an Indemnitee or insufficient to hold it harmless as contemplated by Section 2.10(a) or Section 2.10(b) , then the Indemnifying Party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the Indemnitee as a result of such Loss in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party on the one hand and the Indemnitee on the other hand. 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 Indemnifying Party or the Indemnitee and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 2.10(e) to the contrary, no Indemnifying Party (other than the Company) shall be required pursuant to this Section 2.10(e) to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the net proceeds received by such Indemnifying Party from the Sale of Registrable Securities in the offering to which the Losses of the Indemnitees relate (before deducting expenses, if any) exceeds the amount of any damages which such Indemnifying Party has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue statement or omission. The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 2.10(e) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in this Section 2.10(e) . No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be

25



entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The amount paid or payable by an Indemnitee hereunder shall be deemed to include, for purposes of this Section 2.10(e) , any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Indemnitee in connection with investigating, preparing to defend or defending against or appearing as a third party witness in respect of, or otherwise incurred in connection with, any such loss, claim, damage, expense, liability, action, investigation or proceeding. If indemnification is available under this Section 2.10 , the Indemnifying Parties shall indemnify each Indemnitee to the full extent provided in Section 2.10(a) and Section 2.10(b) without regard to the relative fault of said Indemnifying Parties or Indemnitee. Any Holders’ obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 2.10(e) are several and not joint.
Section 2.11.      Reporting Requirements; Rule 144 .
Until the earlier of (a) the expiration or termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms or (b) the date upon which the Shareholder Group ceases to own any Registrable Securities, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to be and remain in compliance with the periodic filing requirements imposed under the SEC’s rules and regulations, including the Exchange Act, and any other applicable laws or rules, and thereafter shall timely file such information, documents and reports as the SEC may require or prescribe under Sections 13, 14 and 15(d), as applicable, of the Exchange Act so that the Company will qualify for registration on Form S-3 or F-3 and to enable the Shareholder Group to Sell Registrable Securities without registration under the Securities Act consistent with the exemptions from registration under the Securities Act provided by (i) Rule 144 or Regulation S under the Securities Act, as amended from time to time, or (ii) any similar SEC rule or regulation then in effect. From and after the date hereof through the earlier of the expiration or termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms and the date upon which the Shareholder Group ceases to own any Registrable Securities, the Company shall forthwith upon request furnish any Holder (x) a written statement by the Company as to whether it has complied with such requirements and, if not, the specifics thereof, (y) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company and (z) such other reports and documents filed by the Company with the SEC as such Holder may reasonably request in availing itself of an exemption for the offering and Sale of Registrable Securities without registration under the Securities Act.
Section 2.12.      Registration Rights Covenant .
The Company covenants that it will not, and it will cause the members of the Company Group not to, grant any right of registration under the Securities Act relating to any of its Company Shares or other securities to any Person other than pursuant to this Agreement, unless the rights so granted to another Person do not limit or restrict the rights of the Holder(s) hereunder or are not in any way senior to the rights of the Holder(s) hereunder.

Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Information

On January 4, 2017, Terex Corporation (“Terex”, the “Company”) completed the previously announced sale of its Material Handling and Port Solutions business (“MHPS”) to Konecranes Plc, a Finnish public company limited by shares (“Konecranes”), pursuant to that certain Stock and Asset Purchase Agreement (the “SAPA”) dated May 16, 2016, as amended (the “Disposition”), in exchange for 19,600,000 shares of newly issued Konecranes Class B stock and approximately $595 million and €200 million cash, as adjusted for estimated amounts of cash, debt, working capital and the Stahl Crane Systems (“Stahl”) divestiture being undertaken by Konecranes in connection with the Disposition. The final Disposition consideration will be adjusted based on the actual amounts of cash, debt, working capital, 2016 MHPS Business EBITDA, the 2015 EBITDA of Stahl and the Stahl divestiture proceeds.
The following unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information and related notes present the historical consolidated balance sheet and statements of income of Terex adjusted to reflect the Disposition. The MHPS business has been accounted for as a discontinued operation beginning with the Company’s Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2016.
The fiscal year of the Company ends on December 31. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information is not intended to represent what the Company’s balance sheet or results of operations actually would have been had the Disposition been completed as of the dates indicated. In addition, the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information does not purport to project the future financial position or operating results of the Company and excludes one-time transaction costs. One-time transaction-related costs of approximately $18.5 million for financial advisement, legal, professional and other services are expected to be incurred in connection with the Disposition.
This unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information is derived from and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited annual consolidated financial statements and the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements, which are available in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 and the Company’s Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2016, respectively.

Estimates used may change as additional information about actual 2016 operating results becomes available and such changes could be material.
The Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet gives effect to the Disposition as if it had occurred on September 30, 2016, including reflection of the Company’s equity investment in Konecranes. The Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively, give effect to the Disposition as if it had occurred at the beginning of each period presented, but do not include effect of equity method of accounting for the Company’s investment in Konecranes, because acquisition of the Konecranes shares is not deemed to be a significant acquisition.
Pro forma adjustments included in the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information are limited to those that are (i) directly attributable to the Disposition, (ii) factually supportable, and (iii) with respect to the statements of income, expected to have a continuing impact on the results of the Company. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information should be read in conjunction with the accompanying notes to the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information.
The Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively, do not give effect to the January 1, 2016 adoption of Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2015-03, “Imputation of Interest: Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs,”, which requires amortization of debt issuance costs to be presented as a component of interest expense, because the effect on Interest income (expense) – net and Other income (expense) – net is immaterial.
Note 2: Pro Forma Adjustments on Balance Sheet
The following pro forma adjustments are included in the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet:
(a)
In accordance with the terms and conditions of the Stock and Asset Purchase Agreement (the “SAPA”), the cash portion of consideration received from Konecranes for the Disposition is: (1) $676.3 million, which does not include approximately $128 million of proceeds that were withheld due to the pending sale of the Stahl business by Konecranes, plus (2) adjustments for net debt of $45.7 million and (3) net working capital of $18.7 million. The adjustments for net debt and net working capital have been computed in accordance with provisions contained in the SAPA. Upon closing of Konecranes’ sale of its Stahl business, we expect to receive substantially all of the $128 million that was withheld at the closing of the MHPS sale. In addition, there will be additional adjustments depending on the final levels of working capital and net debt.

(b)
To remove the assets and liabilities of the MHPS business that were classified as held for sale at September 30, 2016, and corresponding equity balances.

(c)
The Company’s equity investment in Konecranes was determined based on fair value of 19.6 million shares of Konecranes stock issued to Terex as part of the consideration for the Disposition multiplied by the closing price of Konecranes stock of €35.01 at January 4, 2017, translated to USD at the January 4, 2017 exchange rate of $1.0429. The number of shares of Konecranes stock could be adjusted based on the final 2016 EBITDA performance of the MHPS and Konecranes businesses.

(d)
To release, to retained earnings, a deferred tax liability of $15.5 million that was originally recorded in the historical financials as of September 30, 2016 on the outside basis differences related to the MHPS business for the anticipated tax gain on the Disposition.

(e)
To release, to retained earnings, a deferred tax asset of $16.9 million for net operating loss utilization resulting from the Disposition.

(f)
Represents the estimated income taxes payable resulting from the Disposition based on available information in accordance with the SAPA, without consideration of approximately $128 million of proceeds withheld by Konecranes related to the pending sale of the Stahl business.

Note 3: Pro Forma Adjustments on Statements of Income
These adjustments reflect the pro forma adjustments to remove the results of operations that are directly attributable to the MHPS business and will not continue following the Disposition. The reported column in the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 already reflects removal of the MHPS business results of operations as it was presented as a discontinued operation in our September 30, 2016 Form 10-Q.
