Re:Sponsor Agreement

 

Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

This letter (this “Sponsor Agreement”) is being delivered to you in connection with that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of the date hereof, by and among Churchill Capital Corp, a Delaware corporation (“Acquiror”), Clarivate Analytics Plc, a public limited company organized under the laws of the Island of Jersey (“Holdings”), Camelot Holdings (Jersey) Limited, a private limited company organized under the laws of the Island of Jersey (the “Company”), and the other parties thereto (the “Merger Agreement”) and hereby amends and restates in its entirety that certain letter, dated September 6, 2018, from Churchill Sponsor LLC (the “Sponsor”) and each of the undersigned individuals (each, a “Founder” and collectively, the “Founders”) to Acquiror (the “Prior Letter Agreement”). Certain capitalized terms used herein are defined in paragraph 11 hereof. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed to such terms in the Merger Agreement.

 

It is acknowledged and agreed that (i) the Sponsor is currently the record owner of certain Founder Shares and Private Placement Warrants in which the Founders and Garden State Capital Partners LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Garden State”), have an economic interest as set forth on Annex A attached hereto and (ii) except for purposes of paragraph 25 below, the Sponsor is entering into this Agreement in its capacity as such record owner, the obligations it takes on herein being the obligations of the Founders and Garden State to the extent of their respective obligations hereunder. It is further acknowledged and agreed that 200,000 Founder Shares held of record by Sponsor are held for the benefit of an entity that is not party to, and whose Founder Shares are not subject to, this Agreement.

 

 

 

 

In order to induce the Company, Holdings and Acquiror to enter into the Merger Agreement and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Sponsor, each of the Founders and, solely for purposes of paragraphs 1, 3, 6(b), 7 and 11-25, Garden State hereby agrees with Acquiror and, at all times prior to any valid termination of the Merger Agreement, the Company and Holdings as follows:

 

1.             The Sponsor, Garden State and each Founder agrees that if Acquiror seeks stockholder approval of a proposed Business Combination (including, without limitation, the Jersey Merger), then in connection with such proposed Business Combination, it, he or she shall (i) vote any shares of Capital Stock owned by it, him or her in favor of any proposed Business Combination and (ii) not redeem any shares of Common Stock owned by it, him or her in connection with such stockholder approval or proposed Business Combination. Prior to any valid termination of the Merger Agreement, (a) the Sponsor, Garden State and each Founder shall take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things reasonably necessary under applicable Laws to consummate the Jersey Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, and (b) the Sponsor, Garden State and each Founder shall be bound by and comply with Sections 10.03(b) and 10.05(b) of the Merger Agreement (and any relevant definitions contained in any such Sections) as if such Person were an original signatory to the Merger Agreement with respect to such provisions.

 

2.             The Sponsor and each Founder hereby agrees that in the event that Acquiror fails to consummate a Business Combination by September 6, 2020, or such later period approved by Acquiror’s stockholders in accordance with Acquiror’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation (the “Charter”), the Sponsor and each Founder shall take all reasonable steps to cause Acquiror to (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than 10 business days thereafter, subject to lawfully available funds therefor, redeem 100% of Acquiror’s Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), sold as part of the Units in the Public Offering (the “Offering Shares”), at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account (net of amounts withdrawn to pay Acquiror’s taxes and less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), including interest, divided by the number of then outstanding Offering Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish all Public Stockholders’ rights as stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of Acquiror’s remaining stockholders and Acquiror’s board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to Acquiror’s obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and other requirements of applicable law. The Sponsor and each Founder agrees to not propose any amendment to the Charter that would modify the substance or timing of Acquiror’s obligation to redeem 100% of the Offering Shares if Acquiror does not complete a Business Combination by September 6, 2020, unless Acquiror provides its Public Stockholders with the opportunity to redeem their Offering Shares upon approval of any such amendment at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account (net of amounts withdrawn to pay Acquiror’s taxes and less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), including interest, divided by the number of then outstanding Offering Shares.

The Sponsor and each Founder acknowledges that it, he or she has no right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the Trust Account or any other asset of Acquiror as a result of any liquidation of Acquiror with respect to the Founder Shares held by it, him or her. The Sponsor and each Founder hereby further waive, with respect to any shares of Common Stock held by it, him or her, if any, any redemption rights it, he or she may have in connection with the consummation of a Business Combination, including, without limitation, any such rights available in the context of a stockholder vote to approve such Business Combination or in the context of a tender offer made by Acquiror to purchase shares of Common Stock (although the Sponsor, the Founders and their respective Affiliates shall be entitled to redemption and liquidation rights with respect to any Offering Shares it or they hold if Acquiror fails to consummate a Business Combination by September 6, 2020 or in connection with a stockholder vote to approve an amendment to the Charter to modify the substance or timing of Acquiror’s obligation to redeem 100% of the Offering Shares if Acquiror does not complete a Business Combination by September 6, 2020).

 

3.             Without limiting their obligations under paragraph 7 below, during the period commencing on the date hereof and ending on the later of (x) the date of any valid termination of the Merger Agreement or the consummation of the Closing and (y) March 5, 2019, the Sponsor, Garden State and each Founder shall not, without the prior written consent of Holdings and the Company (in the case clause (x) applies) or Citigroup Global Markets Inc. (the “Underwriter”) (in the case clause (y) applies), (i) sell, offer to sell, contract or agree to sell, hypothecate, pledge, grant any option to purchase or otherwise dispose of or agree to dispose of, directly or indirectly, or establish or increase a put equivalent position or liquidate or decrease a call equivalent position within the meaning of Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) promulgated thereunder, with respect to any Units, shares of Capital Stock, Warrants or any securities convertible into, or exercisable, or exchangeable for, shares of Capital Stock owned by it, him or her, (ii) 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 Units, shares of Capital Stock, Warrants or any securities convertible into, or exercisable, or exchangeable for, shares of Capital Stock owned by it, him or her, whether any such transaction is to be settled by delivery of such securities, in cash or otherwise, or (iii) publicly announce any intention to effect any transaction specified in clause (i) or (ii). The Sponsor, Garden State and each of the Founders acknowledges and agrees that, prior to the effective date of any release or waiver of the restrictions set forth in this paragraph 3 or paragraph 7 with respect to Founders (other than the Sponsor and Garden State), Acquiror or Holdings (as applicable) shall announce the impending release or waiver by press release through a major news service at least two business days before the effective date of the release or waiver. Any such release or waiver granted shall only be effective two business days after the publication date of such press release. The provisions of the immediately preceding two sentences will not apply if (A) the release or waiver is effected solely to permit a transfer of securities without consideration and (B) the transferee has agreed in writing to be bound by the same terms described in this Sponsor Agreement to the extent and for the duration that such terms remain in effect at the time of the transfer. In the event that (a) any shares of Capital Stock, Warrants or other equity securities of Acquiror are issued to the Sponsor, Garden State or any Founder after the date hereof pursuant to any stock dividend, stock split, recapitalization, reclassification, combination or exchange of shares of Capital Stock of, on or affecting the shares of Capital Stock owned by the Sponsor, Garden State or any Founder or otherwise, (b) the Sponsor, Garden State or any Founder purchases or otherwise acquires beneficial ownership of any shares of Capital Stock or other equity securities of Acquiror after the date hereof or (c) the Sponsor, Garden State or any Founder acquires the right to vote or share in the voting of any shares of Capital Stock or other equity securities of Acquiror after the date hereof (such shares of Capital Stock or other equity securities of Acquiror described in clauses (a), (b) and (c), collectively with the Purchased Shares, the “New Shares”), then such New Shares acquired or purchased by the Sponsor, Garden State or any Founder shall be subject to the terms of this paragraph 3 and paragraph 1 above to the same extent as if they constituted the Founder Shares or Private Placement Warrants owned by the Sponsor, Garden State and the Founders as of the date hereof.

4.             In the event of the liquidation of the Trust Account, the Sponsor (which for purposes of clarification shall not extend to any other shareholders, members or managers of the Sponsor) agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Acquiror against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever (including, but not limited to, any and all legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, whether pending or threatened, or any claim whatsoever) to which Acquiror may become subject as a result of any claim by (i) any third party (other than Acquiror’s independent accountants) for services rendered or products sold to Acquiror or (ii) any prospective target business with which Acquiror has entered into a letter of intent, confidentiality or other similar agreement for a Business Combination (a “Target”); provided, however, that such indemnification of Acquiror by the Sponsor (x) shall apply only to the extent necessary to ensure that such claims by a third party (other than Acquiror’s independent public accountants) or a Target do not reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below the lesser of (A) $10.00 per Offering Share or (B) the actual amount per Offering Share held in the Trust Account as of the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account, if less than $10.00 per Offering Share is then held in the Trust Account due to reductions in the value of the trust assets less interest earned on the Trust Account which may be withdrawn to pay taxes, (y) shall not apply to any claims by a third party (including a Target) that executed a waiver of any and all rights to the monies held in the Trust Account (whether or not such waiver is enforceable) and (z) shall not apply to any claims under Acquiror’s indemnity of the Underwriter against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. In the event that any such executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against such third party, the Sponsor shall not be responsible to the extent of any liability for such third-party claims. The Sponsor shall have the right to defend against any such claim with counsel of its choice reasonably satisfactory to Acquiror if, within 15 days following written receipt of notice of the claim to the Sponsor, the Sponsor notifies Acquiror in writing that it shall undertake such defense. For the avoidance of doubt, none of Acquiror’s officers or directors will indemnify Acquiror for claims by third parties, including, without limitation, claims by vendors and prospective target businesses.

V.In the event of a Company Sale prior to the sixth anniversary of the Closing Date, if the per share price paid or implied in such Company Sale equals or exceeds $20.00, then, to the extent the Sweetener Shares have not previously been issued, all Sweetener Shares shall be issued in accordance with paragraph 5(b) above immediately prior to the consummation of the Company Sale.

 

VI.For purposes of this paragraph 7(d)(3), “Company Sale” means (i) a purchase, sale, exchange, business combination or other transaction (including a merger or consolidation of Holdings with or into any other corporation or other entity) in which the equity securities of Holdings, its successor or the surviving entity of such business combination or other transaction are not registered under the Exchange Act or listed or quoted for trading on a national securities exchange or (ii) a sale, lease, exchange or other transfer in one transaction or a series of related transactions of all or substantially all of Holdings’ assets to a third party that is not an Affiliate of Holdings, Onex, Baring, any Founder, the Sponsor or Garden State (or a group of third parties that are not Affiliates of Holdings, Onex, Baring, any Founder, the Sponsor or Garden State). For avoidance of doubt, following a transaction or business combination that is not a “Company Sale” hereunder, including a transaction or business combination in which the equity securities of the surviving entity of such business combination or other transaction are registered under the Exchange Act and listed or quoted for trading on a national securities exchange, the equitable adjustment provisions of Paragraph 23 shall apply, including, without limitation, to performance vesting criteria.

VII.Holders of Holdings Shares subject to the vesting provisions of this paragraph 7(d) shall be entitled to vote such Holdings Shares and receive dividends and other distributions with respect to such Holdings Shares prior to vesting; provided, that dividends and other distributions with respect to Holdings Shares that are subject to performance vesting pursuant to paragraph 7(d)(1)(II) shall be set aside by Holdings and shall be paid (x) to such holders upon the vesting of such Holdings Shares (if at all) or (y) to the respective Affiliates of Onex and Baring and the other persons who held Company Shares as of immediately prior to the Jersey Merger Effective Time, in each case, that receive such Holdings Shares pursuant to paragraph 7(d)(4)(I).

For U.S. federal income tax purposes the parties intend for any such transfer to be treated as an adjustment to the consideration issued to the transferees of such unvested Holdings Shares in connection with the Jersey Merger.

 

II.Unvested Holdings Warrants that are forfeited by a Founder (or Affiliate thereof) pursuant to paragraph 7(d)(2) must be offered for sale, on the fifth anniversary of the Closing, by the forfeiting Founder (or Affiliate thereof) that Beneficially Owns such Holdings Warrants, as applicable, to the respective Affiliates of Onex and Baring that held Company Shares as of immediately prior to the Jersey Merger Effective Time (on a pro-rata basis, based on their relative percentage ownership of the Company Shares as of immediately prior to the Jersey Merger Effective Time), for a purchase price of $1.00 per Holdings Warrant. Such Affiliates of Onex and Baring shall, on a pro-rata basis, based on their relative percentage ownership of the Company Shares as of immediately prior to the Jersey Merger Effective Time, have the right (but not the obligation) to purchase such forfeited Holdings Warrants for a period of 30 days after the forfeiture date. Such right may be exercised in whole or in part at any time during such 30-day period by written notice to the forfeiting Founder or Sponsor, as applicable. Payment of the purchase price must be made in cash within 60 days after the date of such written notice. If any such affiliate of Onex or Baring does not elect to exercise its right to purchase its pro-rata portion of such forfeited Holdings Warrants within 30 days after the forfeiture date, such Holdings Warrants shall be cancelled without any consideration for such cancellation.

 

 12 

 

 

III.Unvested Holdings Warrants that are forfeited by Garden State (or Affiliate thereof) pursuant to paragraph 7(d)(2) must be offered for sale, on the fifth anniversary of the Closing, by Garden State (or Affiliate thereof) that Beneficially Owns such Holdings Warrants to Holdings, for a purchase price of $1.00 per Holdings Warrant. Holdings shall have the right (but not the obligation) to purchase such forfeited Holdings Warrants for a period of 30 days after the forfeiture date. Such right may be exercised in whole or in part at any time during such 30-day period by written notice to Garden State. Payment of the purchase price must be made in cash within 60 days after the date of such written notice. If Holdings does not elect to exercise its right to purchase such forfeited Holdings Warrants within 30 days after the forfeiture date, such Holdings Warrants shall be cancelled without any consideration for such cancellation.

 

IV.Notwithstanding the immediately preceding clauses (II) and (III), if the Stock Price Level on the fifth anniversary of the Closing Date is greater than $12.50, then the Unvested Holdings Warrants must be purchased by Affiliates of Onex and Baring (with respect to such Holdings Warrants referred to in clause (II)) and Holdings (with respect to such Holdings Warrants referred to in clause (III)), for a purchase price of $1.00 per Warrant. Payment of the purchase price must be made in cash within 60 days after the date of the fifth anniversary of the Closing Date.

 

V.With respect to the Holdings Warrants that are transferred or sold, as applicable, pursuant to paragraphs 7(d)(3)(IV) and 7(d)(4)(II)-(IV), (x) for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the parties intend that any such transfer or sale will be treated as a forfeiture of such Holdings Warrants by the relevant Founder or Garden State (as applicable) and as an adjustment to the consideration provided to the transferees of such Holdings Warrants in connection with the Jersey Merger and (y) the parties shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, reasonably cooperate in good faith to complete such transfers or sales on a “cashless” basis for the transferee (for example, by exercising all or a portion of such Holdings Warrants and selling the ordinary shares of Holdings issuable in connection therewith in one or more transactions in the open market with the proceeds therefrom used to pay the purchase price and exercise price for such Holdings Warrants).

 

 13 

 

 

4.Stock Price Level. For purposes of paragraph 5(b) and this paragraph 7(d), the applicable “Stock Price Level” will be considered achieved only when the last reported sale price per Holdings Share on the New York Stock Exchange equals or exceeds the applicable threshold for any 40 trading days during a 60 consecutive trading day period, which 60 consecutive trading day period will not commence until the earlier of (i) the date on which Onex or Baring sell any of their respective Holdings Shares to a third party that is not an Affiliate of Onex, Baring, any Founder, the Sponsor or Garden State, or (ii) the first anniversary of the Closing Date. The Stock Price Levels (and the share price levels in a Company Sale in paragraph 7(d)(3) and paragraph 5(b)) will be equitably adjusted on account of any share split, reverse share split or similar equity restructuring transaction.

 14 

 

 

10.           The Sponsor and each Founder have full right and power, without violating any agreement to which it is bound (including, without limitation, any non-competition or non-solicitation agreement with any employer or former employer), to enter into this Sponsor Agreement and, as applicable, to serve as an officer and/or a director on the board of directors of Acquiror.

26.           Tag-Along Rights

 

(a)       At any time following the expiration of the Founder Shares Lock-Up Period with respect to any Subject Shares, if one or more of the Affiliates of Onex that own ordinary shares of Holdings from time to time (collectively, the “Onex Shareholders”) proposes to Transfer (other than a Transfer (x) to any Person that is an Affiliate of Holdings, Onex, Baring, any Founder, the Sponsor or Garden State or (y) in a Public Offering (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement (as defined in the Merger Agreement) or in a sale to the public under Rule 144 of the Securities Act) all or any portion of the ordinary shares of Holdings then held by such Onex Shareholder and the Dragging Shareholders (as defined below) do not exercise their Drag-Along Rights (as defined below), if applicable, with respect to such Transfer (such Onex Shareholder proposing such Transfer being the “Transferring Shareholder”), then the provisions of this paragraph 26 shall apply. In such event, the Sponsor, the Founders and Garden State (the “Tag-Along Shareholders”) shall have the right (the “Tag-Along Right”) to sell in their discretion up to the same percentage of such Tag-Along Shareholders’ Subject Shares as the Transferring Shareholder is proposing to sell in such Transfer by requesting that the transferee in such Transfer purchase from each such Tag-Along Shareholder up to the number of Subject Shares equal to the number derived by multiplying (i) the total number of Subject Shares that the transferee has agreed or committed to purchase from the Transferring Shareholder by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the total number of Subject Shares owned by such Tag-Along Shareholder, and the denominator of which is equal to the sum of (x) the total number of ordinary shares of Holdings then held by the Onex Shareholders plus (y) the total number of Subject Shares. Any Subject Shares purchased from Tag-Along Shareholders pursuant to this paragraph 26 shall be purchased upon the same terms and conditions (including timing of purchase and payment and the type and form of consideration) as such proposed Transfer by such Transferring Shareholder.

 

(b)       If any Onex Shareholder proposes to make a Transfer triggering the Tag-Along Right, such Transferring Shareholder shall send a written notice (each, a “Sale Notice”) to all Tag-Along Shareholders at least thirty (30) days prior to the date on which such Transferring Shareholder expects to consummate such Transfer. Each Sale Notice shall set forth the Third Party Terms applicable to the proposed Transfer, the maximum number of ordinary shares of Holdings the Tag-Along Shareholder to whom the Sale Notice is delivered is entitled to sell pursuant to the Tag-Along Right (including the calculation of such participant’s pro rata portion) and the anticipated closing date of the Transfer, and shall be accompanied by a copy of any written documents reflecting the terms and conditions agreed to by the Transferring Shareholder and the transferee.

 

(c)        Each Tag-Along Shareholder that desires to exercise the Tag-Along Right shall deliver a written notice (each, “Tag-Along Notice”) to that effect to the Transferring Shareholder within twenty (20) days following receipt of the Sale Notice from such Transferring Shareholder. The Tag-Along Notice shall state the number of Subject Shares (not to exceed the amount determined in accordance with paragraph 26(a)) that such Tag-Along Shareholder proposes to include in such Transfer, and shall constitute the Tag-Along Shareholder’s binding agreement to sell its Subject Shares on the terms and subject to the conditions as are specified in or accompany the Sale Notice. If the transferee does not purchase the specified number of Subject Shares from the Tag-Along Shareholders on the same terms and conditions as specified in the Sale Notice and at the same time as the transferee purchases Subject Shares of Holdings from such Transferring Shareholder, then such Transferring Shareholder shall not be entitled to sell any ordinary shares of Holdings in the proposed Transfer unless such Transferring Shareholder or its designee substantially concurrently purchases from each such Tag-Along Shareholder the number of Subject Shares of such Tag-along Shareholder as is specified in its Tag-Along Notice, on the Third Party Terms.

 

 22 

 

 

(d)       At the closing of the Transfer pursuant to this paragraph 26, the transferee shall remit to each Tag-Along Shareholder the consideration for the Subject Shares of such Tag-Along Shareholder sold pursuant hereto (less any such consideration to be escrowed or otherwise held back in accordance with the Third Party Terms; provided, however, that such escrow or hold back is pro rata among all sellers of ordinary shares of Holdings participating in such transaction based on the number of ordinary shares of Holdings being sold by each such seller in the transaction), against delivery by such Tag-Along Shareholder of certificates (if any) representing such Subject Shares, duly endorsed for Transfer or with duly executed stock powers or similar instruments, or such other instrument of Transfer of such Subject Shares as may be reasonably requested by the transferee or Holdings, and the compliance by such Tag-Along Shareholder with any other conditions to closing generally applicable to all shareholders of Holdings selling ordinary shares of Holdings in such transaction; provided, that (i) no such condition shall require a Tag-Along Shareholder to undertake or agree to bear joint and several liability with any other party thereto or to bear more than such Tag-Along Shareholder’s proportionate share of any indemnification obligations or be liable in respect of any individual representations, covenants or warranties made solely with respect to another shareholder of Holdings, including with respect to title, authority, non-contravention and power to transfer equity (in each case, other than through a common escrow), (ii) no Tag-Along Shareholder shall be liable in respect of any post-closing indemnification in excess of the aggregate amount of proceeds received by such Tag-Along Shareholder in connection with such Transfer and (iii) no such condition shall require a Tag-Along Shareholder to enter into any agreement not to compete with Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries, or commit to any similar obligation, in connection with the Transfer.

 

(e)       If any Transfer described in a Sale Notice has not been consummated in accordance with the terms set forth in the Sale Notice within one hundred and eighty (180) days after the date of delivery of the Sale Notice, or if (i) the terms of such proposed Transfer have been modified in any respect that would increase the per share price or (ii) the other non-monetary terms of such proposed Transfer shall have been changed in any material respect from those set forth in the Sale Notice, such Transfer may not be completed without first providing a new Sale Notice to the Tag-Along Shareholders and allowing another opportunity for such Tag-Along Shareholders to elect to exercise their Tag-Along Right set forth in this paragraph 26.

 

27.          Drag-Along Rights

 

(a)       At any time after the Closing, if one or more of the Onex/Baring Shareholders proposes to Transfer fifty percent (50%) or more of the ordinary shares of Holdings then-held by the Onex/Baring Shareholders, in the aggregate, in a private transaction to a Person or group of Persons (other than an Affiliate of Onex or Baring), then, in each case, the provisions of this paragraph 27 shall apply (each a “Drag-Along Transfer”, and the Onex/Baring Shareholders initiating such Transfer, the “Dragging Shareholders”). In such event, the Dragging Shareholders shall have the right (a “Drag-Along Right”), but not the obligation, to cause all, but not less than all, of the Founders, Garden State, and, if applicable, the Sponsor (collectively, the “Drag-Along Shareholders”) to tender for purchase to the proposed transferee in such Drag-Along Sale, a number of Holdings Shares equaling the number derived by multiplying (i) the total number of ordinary shares of Holdings proposed to be purchased by the proposed transferee in such Drag-Along Sale by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the total number of Holdings Shares held by each such Drag-Along Shareholder and the denominator of which is the total number of then outstanding ordinary shares of Holdings. For the purpose of this paragraph 27(a), each reference to “Holdings Shares” shall be deemed to include all Holdings Shares Beneficially Owned by the Drag-Along Shareholders (whether or not subject to vesting).

 

 23 

 

 

(b)       Any Dragging Shareholder that elects to exercise its Drag-Along Right shall so notify each of the Drag-Along Shareholders pursuant to a written notice (each, a “Drag-Along Notice”) delivered to the Drag-Along Shareholders at least ten (10) days prior to the date on which the Dragging Shareholder expects the proposed Drag-Along Transfer that triggered such Drag-Along Right to be consummated. Each Drag-Along Notice shall set forth the Third Party Terms applicable to such Drag-Along Sale, together with a copy of any written documents constituting the offer or proposal of the proposed transferee and the number of Holdings Shares that such Drag-Along Shareholder is required to sell pursuant to the Drag-Along Right. The terms and conditions applicable to such purchase and sale of any Holdings Shares purchased from any Drag-Along Shareholder pursuant to this paragraph 27 shall be on such Third Party Terms and otherwise be the same as the terms and conditions applicable to such Dragging Shareholders, including the type and form of consideration, timing of purchase, sale and payment (with an exception for any “rollover” by the Dragging Shareholders).

 

(c)       Upon the receipt of a Drag-Along Notice, each Drag-Along Shareholder shall be obligated to sell the number of Holdings Shares required to be sold by such Drag-Along Shareholder as set forth in the Drag-Along Notice on the Third Party Terms, on any other terms and subject to any other conditions generally applicable to all shareholders selling to the transferee in connection with such transaction and subject to the consummation of such transaction in accordance with its terms. Each Drag-Along Shareholder agrees to take all necessary action to approve a Transfer pursuant to and in accordance with this paragraph 27, including to (i) vote its Holdings Shares in favor of such Transfer if so required by applicable Law, (ii) take such other action as may be required to effect such Transfer (subject to the limitations set forth in paragraph 27(d)) and (iii) refrain from exercising, and take all actions to waive, any dissenters, appraisal or similar rights with respect thereto (including the waiver of any right of pre-emption they may have in relation to such Transfer of ordinary shares of Holdings).

 

(d)       At the closing of the Transfer pursuant to this paragraph 27, the transferee shall remit to each Drag-Along Shareholder the consideration for the Holdings Shares to be sold by such Drag-Along Shareholder (less any portion of the consideration to be escrowed or otherwise held back in accordance with the Third Party Terms; provided, however, that such escrow or hold back is pro rata among all Drag-Along Shareholders and other parties selling securities in such transaction based on the number of securities being sold by such Drag-Along Shareholders and other parties in such transaction), against delivery by such Drag-Along Shareholder of the certificates (if any) representing such Holdings Shares, duly endorsed for Transfer or with duly executed stock powers or similar instruments, and such other instruments of Transfer, in each case, as may be reasonably requested by the transferee or Holdings, and the compliance by such Drag-Along Shareholder with any other conditions to closing generally applicable to all shareholders selling ordinary shares of Holdings in such transaction; provided, that (i) no such condition shall require such Drag-Along Shareholder to undertake or agree to bear joint and several liability with any other party thereto or to bear more than such Drag-Along Shareholder’s proportionate share of any indemnification obligations (other than through a common escrow), (ii) such Drag-Along Shareholder shall not be liable in respect of any post-closing indemnification in excess of the aggregate amount of proceeds received by such Drag-Along Shareholder in connection with such Transfer, (iii) such Drag-Along Shareholder shall not bear any liability with respect to any individual representations, covenants or warranties made solely with respect to another shareholder, including with respect to title, authority, non-contravention and power to transfer equity (in each case, other than through a common escrow), (iv) such Drag-Along Shareholder shall only make the same individual representations, warranties, covenants and indemnities concerning such Drag-Along Shareholder and Holdings Shares to be sold by such Drag-Along Shareholder as made by the Dragging Shareholders, (v) no such condition shall require such Drag-Along Shareholder to enter into any agreement not to compete with Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries, or commit to any similar obligation, in connection with the Transfer and (vi) no such condition shall require such Drag-Along Shareholder to enter into any agreement not to solicit or hire employees of Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries, or commit to any similar obligation, in connection with the Transfer, except, with respect to this clause (vi), to the extent entered into by the Dragging Shareholders.
