Section 3.2 Conversion of Capital

(a) Share Capital of Merger Sub. At the Effective Time, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein and in the Plan of Merger, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the Purchaser, the Merger Sub, or the holders of any securities of the Company or Merger Sub, each share in the share capital of Merger Sub that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into one (1) fully paid and non-assessable ordinary share of the Surviving Corporation. Such conversion shall be effected by means of the cancellation of each of such share of the Merger Sub, in exchange for the right to receive one such ordinary share of the Surviving Corporation. Such ordinary shares of the Surviving Corporation into which the ordinary shares of Merger Sub are so converted shall be the only shares of the Surviving Corporation that are issued and outstanding immediately after the Effective Time.

(b) Share Capital of Company. At the Effective Time, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein and in the Plan of Merger, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the Purchaser, the Merger Sub, the Company or the holders of any securities of the Company or Merger Sub, each Company Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall be cancelled in exchanged for the right to receive, without interest, the Per Share Merger Consideration. For avoidance of any doubt, each Company Share to be cancelled in exchange for the right to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration as provided in this Section 3.2(b) shall be automatically cancelled and shall cease to exist, and from and after the Effective Time, each Company Shareholder holding such Company Shares will cease to have any rights with respect to such Company Shares, except the right to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration, without interest in accordance with this Section 3.2(b), and the right to receive any dividends or other distributions with a record date prior to the Effective Time which may have been declared by the Company and which remain unpaid at the Effective Time.

(c) No Liability. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3.2, none of Surviving Corporation or any party hereto shall be liable to any person for any amount properly paid to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar law.

(d) Adjustments. Without limiting the other provisions of this Agreement, if at any time during the period between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Time, any change in the issued and outstanding securities of the Company or the Purchaser Ordinary Shares shall occur (other than the issuance of additional shares of the Company or Purchaser as permitted by this Agreement), including by reason of any reclassification, recapitalization, share subdivision (including a share consolidation), or combination, exchange, readjustment of shares, or similar transaction, or any dividend or distribution paid in kind, any amounts payable pursuant to this Agreement shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect such change so that the holder of such securities would receive the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such event; provided, however, that this sentence shall not be construed to permit Purchaser or the Company to take any action with respect to its securities that is prohibited by the terms of this Agreement.

Section 3.3 Payment of Merger Consideration

(a) Closing Payment Shares. Upon and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Plan of Merger, at the Closing, Purchaser shall deliver or cause to be delivered the Closing Payment Shares, represented by book-entry, to each holder of Company Shares that have been converted into the right to receive the Consideration Shares, as set forth in the Allocation Statement.

(b) No fraction shares. No certificates or scrip or book-entry credit representing fractional Purchaser Ordinary Shares will be issued pursuant to the Merger, and such fractional share interests will not entitle the registered holder thereof to vote or to any rights of a shareholder of the Purchaser. In the event any holder of Company Share would otherwise be entitled to receive a fraction of a share of Purchaser Ordinary Shares (after aggregating all fractional shares of Purchaser Ordinary Shares issuable to such holder), such fractional share shall be rounded up to the nearest whole share. The parties acknowledge that any such adjustment was not separately bargained-for consideration but merely represents a mechanical rounding off for purposes of avoiding the expense and inconvenience to Purchaser that would otherwise be caused by the issuance of fractional shares.

(c) Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Certificates. In the event any certificates for any Company Share shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall deliver or cause to be delivered in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed certificates and for each such share, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the holder thereof; provided, however, that Purchaser may, in its discretion and as a condition precedent to the issuance thereof, require the owner of such lost, stolen or destroyed certificates to deliver a bond in such sum as it may reasonably direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against Purchaser with respect to the certificates alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed.

(d) Company Register of Members. At the Effective Time, the register of members of the Company shall be closed, and thereafter there shall be no further registration on the register of members of the Surviving Corporation of transfers of Company Shares that were issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. From and after the Effective Time, the holders of Company Shares issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall cease to have any rights with respect to such Shares except as otherwise provided for herein or by applicable Law.

(c) If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any such Third-Party Claim pursuant to Section 12.2(b), then the Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in any manner reasonably requested in connection with the defense. If the Indemnifying Party so assumes the defense of any such Third-Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel and to participate in (but not control) the defense, compromise, or settlement thereof, and the fees and expenses of such counsel employed by the Indemnified Party shall be at the expense of the Indemnified Party unless (i) the Indemnifying Party has agreed to pay such fees and expenses, or (ii) the named parties to any such Third-Party Claim (including any impleaded parties) include the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall have been advised by its counsel that there may be a conflict of interest between the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party in the conduct of the defense thereof, and in any such case the reasonable fees and expenses of such separate counsel shall be borne by the Indemnifying Party;

(d) If the Indemnifying Party elects to assume the defense of any Third-Party Claim pursuant to Section 12.2(b), the Indemnified Party shall not pay, or permit to be paid, any part of any claim or demand arising from such asserted liability unless the Indemnifying Party withdraws from or fail to adequately prosecute the defense of such asserted liability, or unless a judgment is entered against the Indemnified Party for such liability. If the Indemnifying Party does not elect to defend, or if, after commencing or undertaking any such defense, the Indemnifying Party fails to adequately prosecute or withdraw such defense, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to undertake the defense or settlement thereof, at the Indemnifying Party’s expense. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to control over, but may participate in, and the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to have sole control over, the defense or settlement of (x) that part of any Third-Party Claim (i) that seeks a temporary restraining order, a preliminary or permanent injunction or specific performance against the Indemnified Party, or (ii) to the extent such Third-Party Claim involves criminal allegations against the Indemnified Party or (y) the entire Third-Party Claim if such Third-Party Claim would impose liability on the part of the Indemnified Party in an amount which is greater than the amount as to which the Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification under this Agreement. In the event the Indemnified Party retains control of the Third-Party Claim, the Indemnified Party will not settle the subject claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party;

(e) If the Indemnified Party undertakes the defense of any such Third-Party Claim pursuant to Section 12.2(b) and proposes to settle the same prior to a final judgment thereon or to forgo appeal with respect thereto, then the Indemnified Party shall give the Indemnifying Party prompt written notice thereof and the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to participate in the settlement, assume or reassume the defense thereof or prosecute such appeal, in each case at the Indemnifying Party’s expense. The Indemnifying Party shall not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party settle or compromise or consent to entry of any judgment with respect to any such Third-Party Claim (i) in which any relief other than the payment of money damages is or may be sought against the Indemnified Party, (ii) in which such Third-Party Claim could be reasonably expected to impose or create a monetary liability on the part of the Indemnified Party (such as an increase in the Indemnified Party’s income Tax) other than the monetary claim of the third party in such Third-Party Claim being paid pursuant to such settlement or judgment, or (iii) which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant, person conducting such investigation or initiating such hearing, plaintiff or petitioner to the Indemnified Party of a release from all liability with respect to such Third-Party Claim and all other actions (known or unknown) arising or which might arise out of the same facts;

(f) Following the Closing, the disinterested independent directors of the Purchaser shall have the authority to institute and prosecute any claims for indemnification hereunder in good faith on behalf of the Purchaser to enforce the terms of this Agreement.

Section 12.3 Survival of Indemnification Rights. All representations and warranties contained in this Agreement (including all schedules and exhibits hereto and all certificates, documents, instruments and undertakings furnished pursuant to this Agreement) shall survive until 6 months following the Closing Date (the “Survival Period”); provided that the Key Warranties shall survive until the expiry of the applicable statute of limitations. After the expiration of the Survival Period, the Indemnifying Party shall have no further liability for indemnification pursuant to this Article XII other than with respect to the claims already made pursuant to this Article XII.

Section 12.4 Sole and Exclusive Remedy. The remedies provided in this Article XII shall be deemed the sole and exclusive remedies of the Indemnified Party, from and after the Closing Date, with respect to any and all claims arising out of or related to this Agreement or in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby.

Section 13.2 Non-survival or Representations, Warranties and Covenants. None of the representations, warranties, covenants, obligations or other agreements in this Agreement or in any certificate, statement or instrument delivered pursuant to this Agreement, including any rights arising out of any breach of such representations, warranties, covenants, obligations, agreements and other provisions, shall survive the Closing, and all such representations, warranties, covenants, obligations or other agreements shall terminate and expire upon the occurrence of the Closing (and there shall be no liability after the Closing in respect thereof), except for (a) those covenants and agreements contained herein that by their terms expressly apply in whole or in part after the Closing and then only with respect to any breaches occurring after the Closing and (b) this Article XIII and any corresponding definitions set forth in Article I.

Section 13.3 Amendments; No Waivers; Remedies

(a) This Agreement cannot be amended, except by a writing signed by each of the Purchaser Parties and the Company, and cannot be terminated orally or by course of conduct. No provision hereof can be waived, except by a writing signed by the party against whom such waiver is to be enforced, and any such waiver shall apply only in the particular instance in which such waiver shall have been given.

(b) Neither any failure or delay in exercising any right or remedy hereunder or in requiring satisfaction of any condition herein nor any course of dealing shall constitute a waiver of or prevent any party from enforcing any right or remedy or from requiring satisfaction of any condition. No notice to or demand on a party waives or otherwise affects any obligation of that party or impairs any right of the party giving such notice or making such demand, including any right to take any action without notice or demand not otherwise required by this Agreement. No exercise of any right or remedy with respect to a breach of this Agreement shall preclude exercise of any other right or remedy, as appropriate to make the aggrieved party whole with respect to such breach, or subsequent exercise of any right or remedy with respect to any other breach.

(c) Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, no statement herein of any right or remedy shall impair any other right or remedy stated herein or that otherwise may be available.

(d) Notwithstanding anything else contained herein, neither shall any party seek, nor shall any party be liable for, punitive or exemplary damages, under any tort, contract, equity, or other legal theory, with respect to any breach (or alleged breach) of this Agreement or any provision hereof or any matter otherwise relating hereto or arising in connection herewith.

Section 13.4 Arm’s Length Bargaining; No Presumption Against Drafter. This Agreement has been negotiated at arm’s-length by parties of equal bargaining strength, each represented by counsel or having had but declined the opportunity to be represented by counsel and having participated in the drafting of this Agreement. This Agreement creates no fiduciary or other special relationship between the parties, and no such relationship otherwise exists. No presumption in favor of or against any party in the construction or interpretation of this Agreement or any provision hereof shall be made based upon which Person might have drafted this Agreement or such provision.

Section 13.5 Publicity.

(a) All press releases or other public communications relating to the Transactions, and the method of the release for publication thereof, shall prior to the Closing be subject to the prior mutual approval of Purchaser and the Company; provided, that no such party shall be required to obtain consent pursuant to this Section 13.5(a) to the extent any proposed release or statement is substantially equivalent to the information that has previously been made public without breach of the obligation under this Section 13.5(a).

(b) The restriction in Section 13.5(a) shall not apply to the extent the public announcement is required by applicable securities Law, any governmental Authority or stock exchange rule; provided, however, that in such an event, the party making the announcement shall, to the extent practicable, use its commercially reasonable efforts to consult with the other party in advance as to its form, content and timing

Section 13.6 Expenses. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, each party shall bear its own costs and expenses in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby; provided that, if the Closing shall occur, Purchaser shall pay or cause to be paid the unpaid Company Transaction Expenses by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the designated account. For the avoidance of doubt, any payments to be made (or to cause to be made) by Purchaser pursuant to this Section 13.6 shall promptly and immediately be paid upon consummation of the Closing and release of proceeds from the Trust Account.

Section 13.7 No Assignment or Delegation. No party may assign any right or delegate any obligation hereunder, including by merger, consolidation, operation of law, or otherwise, without the written consent of the other party. Any purported assignment or delegation without such consent shall be void, in addition to constituting a material breach of this Agreement.

Section 13.8 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to the conflict of laws principles thereof.

Section 13.9 Counterparts; Facsimile Signatures. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which shall constitute one agreement. This Agreement shall become effective upon delivery to each party of an executed counterpart or the earlier delivery to each party of original, photocopied, or electronically transmitted signature pages that together (but need not individually) bear the signatures of all other parties.

Section 13.10 Entire Agreement. This Agreement together with the other Transaction Documents, including any exhibits and schedules attached hereto or thereto, sets forth the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous understandings and agreements related thereto (whether written or oral), all of which are merged herein. No provision of this Agreement or any Transaction Documents, including any exhibits and schedules attached hereto or thereto, may be explained or qualified by any agreement, negotiations, understanding, discussion, conduct or course of conduct or by any trade usage. Except as otherwise expressly stated herein or any Transaction Documents, there is no condition precedent to the effectiveness of any provision hereof or thereof. No party has relied on any representation from, or warranty or agreement of, any person in entering into this Agreement, prior hereto or contemporaneous herewith or any Transaction Documents, except those expressly stated herein or therein.

Section 13.11 Severability. A determination by a court or other legal authority that any provision that is not of the essence of this Agreement is legally invalid shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision hereof. The parties shall cooperate in good faith to substitute (or cause such court or other legal authority to substitute) for any provision so held to be invalid a valid provision, as alike in substance to such invalid provision as is lawful.

Section 13.12 Construction of Certain Terms and References; Captions. In this Agreement:

(a) References to particular sections and subsections, schedules, and exhibits not otherwise specified are cross-references to sections and subsections, schedules, and exhibits of this Agreement.

(b) The words “herein,” “hereof,” “hereunder,” and words of similar import refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement, and, unless the context requires otherwise, “party” means a party signatory hereto.

(c) Any use of the singular or plural, or the masculine, feminine, or neuter gender, includes the others, unless the context otherwise requires; “including” means “including without limitation;” “or” means “and/or;” “any” means “any one, more than one, or all;” and, unless otherwise specified, any financial or accounting term has the meaning of the term under United States generally accepted accounting principles as consistently applied heretofore by the Company Group.

(d) Unless otherwise specified, any reference to any agreement (including this Agreement), instrument, or other document includes all schedules, exhibits, or other attachments referred to therein, and any reference to a statute or other law includes any rule, regulation, ordinance, or the like promulgated thereunder, in each case, as amended, restated, supplemented, or otherwise modified from time to time. Any reference to a numbered schedule means the same-numbered section of the Company Disclosure Schedule.

(e) If any action is required to be taken or notice is required to be given within a specified number of days following a specific date or event, the day of such date or event is not counted in determining the last day for such action or notice. If any action is required to be taken or notice is required to be given on or before a particular day which is not a Business Day, such action or notice shall be considered timely if it is taken or given on or before the next Business Day.

(f) Captions are not a part of this Agreement, but are included for convenience, only.

(g) All monetary figures used herein shall be in United States dollars unless otherwise specified.

(h) A reference to a statute or statutory provision includes, to the extent applicable at any relevant time: (i) that statute or statutory provision as from time to time consolidated, modified, re-enacted or replaced by any other statute or statutory provision; (ii) any repealed statute or statutory provision which it re-enacts (with or without modification); and (iii) any subordinate legislation or regulation made under the relevant statute or statutory provision.

Section 13.13 Further Assurances. Each party shall execute and deliver such documents and take such action, as may reasonably be considered within the scope of such party’s obligations hereunder, necessary to effectuate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 13.14 Third Party Beneficiaries. Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof confers any benefit or right upon or may be enforced by any Person not a signatory hereto.

Section 13.15 Waiver of Conflicts. Recognizing that DLA Piper (“DLA”) acted as legal counsel to the Company and certain of their respective affiliates prior to the Closing, and that DLA may act as legal counsel to the Surviving Corporation and one or more of its Subsidiaries after the Closing, each of the Company and the Surviving Corporation (including on behalf of the Surviving Corporation’s Subsidiaries) hereby waives, on its own behalf and agrees to cause its Affiliates to waive, any conflicts that may arise in connection with DLA representing any of the Company, the Surviving Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries and any of their respective affiliates after the Closing.

Section 13.16 Specific Performance.

(a) The Parties hereby agree that irreparable damage for which monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy, would occur in the event that any provision of this Agreement (including failing to take such actions as are required of it hereunder to consummate the Merger or the other Transactions) is not performed in accordance with its specific terms or is otherwise breached. Accordingly, the Parties agree that each Party shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions, or any other appropriate form of specific performance or equitable relief, to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof in any court of competent jurisdiction in accordance with this Agreement this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled under the terms of this Agreement at Law or in equity (and each Party hereby waives any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection with such remedy);

(b) Each of the Parties agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief when expressly available pursuant to the terms of this Agreement on the basis that the other Parties have an adequate remedy at Law or an award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at Law or equity. Any Party seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of, or to enforce compliance with this Agreement when expressly available pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such order or injunction.
