Re: Restricted ADSs (CUSIP No.: 20451W994)

 

Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

Reference is made to the Deposit Agreement, dated as of September 22, 2020, as amended and supplemented from time to time (the “Deposit Agreement”), by and among Compass Pathways plc, a public limited company incorporated under the laws of England and Wales (the “Company”), Citibank, N.A., a national banking association organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America, as Depositary (the “Depositary”), and all Holders and Beneficial Owners of American Depositary Shares (the “ADSs”), each ADS representing one (1) ordinary share, nominal value £0.008 per share, of the Company (the “Shares”), issued thereunder. All capitalized terms used, but not otherwise defined herein, shall have the meaning assigned thereto in the Deposit Agreement.

 

The Company desires to establish procedures to enable certain holders of securities in the Company, including Affiliates of the Company (each, a “Restricted Holder”), to hold Shares that constitute Restricted Securities (such Shares, “Restricted Shares”) as Restricted ADSs (such facility, the “RADR Facility”). The Depositary agrees to accommodate the issuance of Restricted ADSs, provided that (a) the terms of deposit of the Restricted Shares for Restricted ADSs neither (i) prejudice any substantial rights of existing Holders and Beneficial Owners of ADSs under the Deposit Agreement, nor (ii) violate or conflict with any law, rule or administrative position applicable to the ADSs, and (b) the terms of the Deposit Agreement are supplemented as set forth in this letter agreement (the “Restricted ADS Letter Agreement”) to establish procedures for the deposit of Restricted Shares by the Company, or by, for, or on behalf of, Restricted Holders.

 

To facilitate the orderly administration of the RADR Facility and to reflect the varying restrictions, characteristics, and other terms and provisions applicable to differently situated Restricted Holders and Restricted Shares, this Restricted ADS Letter Agreement shall be supplemented from time to time by the execution and delivery of Series Exhibits in the forms attached hereto (the “Series Exhibits”) to specify the particular limitations and terms and conditions applicable to certain Restricted Holders and/or certain Restricted Shares, as is necessary or prudent to reflect the differing underlying restrictions and characteristics with respect thereto.

 

In the case of any conflict or inconsistency between the general terms and provisions of the body of this Restricted ADS Letter Agreement and the more specific terms and provisions of a Series Exhibit with respect to the particular Restricted Holder(s), Restricted Shares, and/or Restricted ADSs described therein, the terms and provisions of such Series Exhibit shall control with respect to the specific subject matter set forth therein.

 

 

 

 

The purpose and intent of this Restricted ADS Letter Agreement is to supplement the Deposit Agreement in order to accommodate (i) the issuance of Restricted ADSs to the Restricted Holders, (ii) the sale, transfer or cancellation of such Restricted ADSs, and (iii) certain ancillary transactions further described below. The Company and the Depositary agree that this Restricted ADS Letter Agreement shall be filed as an exhibit to the Company’s next Registration Statement on Form F-6 filed in respect of the ADSs under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), if any, and if required by the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

For good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Company and the Depositary hereby agree, notwithstanding the terms of the Deposit Agreement, as follows:

 

1.                  Depositary Procedures. Subject to the specific terms, provisions, and procedures set forth in each applicable Series Exhibit, the Company consents, under Section 2.3 and Section 2.14 of the Deposit Agreement, to (i) the deposit by the Company, or by, for, or on behalf of, each Restricted Holder, of certain Restricted Shares specified on the applicable consent and delivery instruction applicable thereto delivered to the Depositary to accept the deposit of such Restricted Shares and (ii) the issuance and delivery by the Depositary of the corresponding number of Restricted ADSs in respect thereof in the form of Uncertificated ADSs, upon the terms set forth in Section 2.13 of the Deposit Agreement, as supplemented by this Restricted ADS Letter Agreement, to the Restricted Holders or their respective designees. Except as may otherwise be provided in any Series Exhibit, in connection with each deposit of Restricted Shares (i) by the Company and request for issuance of Restricted ADSs, the Company shall deliver to the Depositary a duly completed and signed consent and delivery instruction substantially in the form of Appendix 1-A hereto (each, a “Standard Consent and Delivery Instruction – Company”), and (ii) by a Restricted Holder and request for issuance of Restricted ADSs, the Restricted Holder shall be required to deliver to the Depositary a duly completed and signed consent and delivery instruction substantially in the form of Appendix 1-B hereto (each a “Standard Consent and Delivery Instruction – Restricted Holder” and together with a Standard Consent and Delivery Instruction – Company, a “Standard Consent and Delivery Instruction”).

 

In furtherance of the foregoing, the Company instructs the Depositary, and the Depositary agrees, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in Section 2.14 of the Deposit Agreement as supplemented by this Restricted ADS Letter Agreement, to (i) establish procedures to enable (x) the deposit of the Restricted Shares with the Custodian by the Company, or by, for, or on behalf of, the Restricted Holders as a valid deposit of Shares under the Deposit Agreement in order to enable the issuance by the Depositary to the Restricted Holders of Restricted ADSs issued under the terms of this Restricted ADS Letter Agreement upon deposit of Restricted Shares, and (y) the transfer of Restricted ADSs, the removal of the transfer and other restrictions with respect to Restricted ADSs in order to create unrestricted ADSs, and the withdrawal of the Restricted Shares upon cancellation of the Restricted ADSs, in each case upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Deposit Agreement as supplemented by the terms of this Restricted ADS Letter Agreement, and (ii) deliver an account statement (the “Account Statement”) to the Restricted Holder(s) upon the issuance of the Restricted ADSs, in each case upon the terms set forth herein. Nothing contained in this Restricted ADS Letter Agreement shall in any way obligate the Depositary, or give authority to the Depositary, to accept any Shares other than the Restricted Shares described herein or in a Series Exhibit for deposit under the terms hereof.

 

2 

 

 

2.                  Company Assistance. The Company agrees to (i) provide commercially reasonable assistance upon the request of and to the Depositary in the establishment of such procedures to enable the acceptance of the deposit by or on behalf of the Restricted Holders of Restricted Shares, the issuance of Restricted ADSs, the transfer of Restricted ADSs, the withdrawal of Restricted Shares and the conversion of Restricted ADSs into freely transferable ADSs, and (ii) take all commercially reasonable steps requested by the Depositary to ensure that the acceptance of the deposit of Restricted Shares, the issuance of Restricted ADSs, the transfer of Restricted ADSs, the conversion of Restricted ADSs into freely transferable ADSs, and the withdrawal of Restricted Shares, in each case upon the terms and conditions set forth herein, do not prejudice any substantial existing rights of Holders or Beneficial Owners of ADSs and do not violate the provisions of the Securities Act or any other applicable laws.

 

In furtherance of the foregoing, the Company shall at the time of execution of this Restricted ADS Letter Agreement cause (A) its U.S. counsel to deliver an opinion to the Depositary as of the date hereof stating, inter alia, that (i) assuming its due authorization, execution and delivery, this Restricted ADS Letter Agreement is a valid and binding agreement of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, under the laws of the State of New York, except as the enforcement thereof may be subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws of general application affecting the rights and remedies of creditors and to general principles of equity, and (ii) the deposit of Designated Shares by the Company, or by, for, or on behalf of, the Restricted Holders and the issuance and delivery of Designated Restricted ADSs, in each case upon the terms contemplated herein, do not require registration of the Designated Shares under the Securities Act, and (B) its English counsel to deliver an opinion to the Depositary as of the date hereof stating, inter alia, that (i) the Company has duly authorized and executed this Restricted ADS Letter Agreement, (ii) a final and conclusive judgment properly obtained in a court of competent jurisdiction in New York against the Company arising out of or in connection with the Restricted ADS Letter Agreement will be recognized in England and Wales at common law by an action or counterclaim for the amount due under such judgment, (iii) no authorizations or consents of governmental, judicial or other public bodies in England are required in connection with the deposit of Designated Shares held by the Restricted Holders under the Deposit Agreement and this Restricted ADS Letter Agreement, and (iv) the terms of this Restricted ADS Letter Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Restricted ADS Letter Agreement do not contravene or conflict with any existing statutes having the force of law in England applicable to companies generally.

 

Furthermore, the Company shall at the time of the execution and delivery of each additional Series Exhibit hereto, cause its U.S. counsel and English counsel to deliver such additional opinions as may be specified in each applicable Series Exhibit.

3.                  Limitations on Issuance of Restricted ADSs. The Company hereby instructs the Depositary, and the Depositary agrees, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Restricted ADS Letter Agreement, to issue and deliver Restricted ADSs only (x) in the case of initial issuance upon receipt of (i) a duly completed and signed Standard Consent and Delivery Instruction from the Company or the Restricted Holder, as applicable (except as may otherwise be provided in any Series Exhibit), (ii) confirmation from the Custodian of the receipt of the due deposit of the Restricted Shares by the Company, or by, for, or on behalf of, a Restricted Holder, and (iii) payment of the applicable fees, taxes (including any stamp duty or Stamp Duty Reserve Tax (SDRT), if applicable) and expenses otherwise payable under the terms of the Deposit Agreement, as supplemented by this Restricted ADS Letter Agreement and the applicable Series Exhibit, upon the deposit of Shares and the issuance of ADSs, and (y) in the event of any corporate action of the Company which results in the issuance of Restricted ADSs to the holder(s) of the Restricted ADSs.

 

The Depositary shall (unless otherwise agreed by the Company and the Depositary in writing) cause the Restricted ADSs issued upon the deposit of Restricted Shares to be separately identified on the books of the Depositary under Cusip No.: 20451W994, which may also be used by the Depositary to identify other Restricted ADSs to be issued under the terms of the Deposit Agreement, as supplemented by this Restricted ADS Letter Agreement and the applicable Series Exhibit, and the Restricted Shares to be held, to the extent practicable, separate and distinct by the Custodian from the other Deposited Securities held by the Custodian in respect of the ADSs issued under the Deposit Agreement that are not Restricted ADSs.

 

The Depositary is hereby authorized and directed, notwithstanding the terms of Section 2.14 of the Deposit Agreement, to issue the Restricted ADSs as uncertificated Restricted ADSs registered in the books of the Depositary in the name of the Restricted Holders or their designees for the benefit of the Restricted Holders subject to the restrictions specified in Section 4 below.

 

4.                  Stop Transfer Notation and Legend. The books of the Depositary shall identify the Restricted ADSs as “restricted” and shall contain a “stop transfer” notation to that effect. The Account Statements to be sent by the Depositary to the Restricted Holders upon the issuance of Restricted ADSs shall contain a legend substantially in the form of the following legend:

 

THE RESTRICTED AMERICAN DEPOSITARY SHARES (“RESTRICTED ADSs”) CREDITED TO YOUR ACCOUNT AND THE UNDERLYING RESTRICTED SHARES (“RESTRICTED SHARES”) OF COMPASS PATHWAYS PLC (THE “COMPANY”) ARE SUBJECT TO THE TERMS OF A RESTRICTED ADS LETTER AGREEMENT, DATED AS OF AUGUST 18, 2023 (AS AMENDED AND SUPPLEMENTED FROM TIME TO TIME, THE “RESTRICTED ADS LETTER AGREEMENT”), THE DEPOSIT AGREEMENT, DATED AS OF SEPTEMBER 22, 2020, AS AMENDED AND SUPPLEMENTED (AS SO AMENDED AND SUPPLEMENTED, THE “DEPOSIT AGREEMENT”) AND ANY APPLICABLE SERIES EXHIBIT (AS DEFINED IN THE RESTRICTED ADS LETTER AGREEMENT) ATTACHED TO THE RESTRICTED ADS LETTER AGREEMENT FROM TIME TO TIME.

PRIOR TO THE SALE OF THE RESTRICTED ADSs AND ISSUANCE OF FREELY TRANSFERABLE ADSs IN RESPECT THEREOF, A HOLDER OF RESTRICTED ADSs WILL BE REQUIRED TO PROVIDE TO THE DEPOSITARY AND TO THE COMPANY A RESALE CERTIFICATION AND INSTRUCTION LETTER IN THE FORM ATTACHED TO THE RESTRICTED ADS LETTER AGREEMENT. PRIOR TO THE WITHDRAWAL OF THE RESTRICTED SHARES, A HOLDER OF RESTRICTED ADSs WILL BE REQUIRED TO PROVIDE TO THE DEPOSITARY AND TO THE COMPANY A WITHDRAWAL CERTIFICATION IN THE FORM ATTACHED TO THE RESTRICTED ADS LETTER AGREEMENT. THE TRANSFER AND OTHER RESTRICTIONS SET FORTH HEREIN AND IN THE RESTRICTED ADS LETTER AGREEMENT SHALL REMAIN APPLICABLE WITH RESPECT TO THE RESTRICTED ADSs AND THE RESTRICTED SHARES UNTIL SUCH TIME AS THE PROCEDURES SET FORTH IN THE RESTRICTED ADS LETTER AGREEMENT FOR REMOVAL OF RESTRICTIONS ARE SATISFIED. NEITHER THE COMPANY NOR THE DEPOSITARY MAKES ANY REPRESENTATION AS TO THE AVAILABILITY OF THE EXEMPTION PROVIDED BY RULE 144 UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT FOR RESALE OF THE RESTRICTED SHARES OR THE RESTRICTED ADSs.

6.                  Limitations On Cancellation of Restricted ADSs.

7.                  Fungibility. Except as contemplated herein and except as required by applicable law, the Restricted ADSs shall, to the maximum extent permitted by law and to the maximum extent practicable, be treated as ADSs issued and outstanding under the terms of the Deposit Agreement that are not Restricted ADSs.

8.                  Limitations On Exchange of Restricted ADSs for Freely Transferrable ADSs. The Company instructs the Depositary, and the Depositary agrees, to cancel the Restricted ADSs and to issue and deliver freely transferable ADSs in respect thereof upon receipt of (i) a duly completed and signed resale certification and instruction letter, in the form attached hereto as Appendix 4 (each, a “Standard Resale Certification and Instruction Letter”) (except as may otherwise be provided in any Series Exhibit), (ii) an opinion of U.S. securities counsel contemplated in the Standard Resale Certification and Instruction Letter (or as otherwise provided in any applicable Series Exhibit), (iii) payment of the ADS issuance and cancellation fees, taxes and expenses otherwise payable under the terms of the Deposit Agreement and this Restricted ADS Letter Agreement, (iv) such other certificates, instruments, or documents contemplated by the applicable Series Exhibit; and (v) any other documents as may reasonably be requested by the Depositary under the terms of the Deposit Agreement and this Restricted ADS Letter Agreement.

13.              Governing Law and Jurisdiction.

Re:Second Amended and Restated Restricted ADS Letter Agreement - Affiliate and Restricted Securities Series Letter Agreement

 

Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

Reference is hereby made to (i) the Deposit Agreement, dated as of September 22, 2020 (the “Deposit Agreement”), by and among Compass Pathways plc, a public limited company incorporated under the laws of England and Wales (the “Company”), Citibank, N.A., a national banking association organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America, as Depositary (the “Depositary”), and all Holders and Beneficial Owners of American Depositary Shares (“ADSs”) issued thereunder, (ii) the Amended and Restated Restricted ADS Letter Agreement, dated as of December 28, 2021, by and between the Company and the Depositary (the “Original Amended and Restated Restricted ADS Letter Agreement”), and (iii) the Restricted ADS Letter Agreement, dated as of August 18, 2023 (the “Restricted ADS Letter Agreement”), by and between the Company and the Depositary. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings given to them in the Deposit Agreement, or, in the event so noted herein, in the Restricted ADS Letter Agreement.

 

The Company desires to amend and restate the Original Amended and Restated Restricted ADS Letter Agreement in order to establish procedures to enable certain Restricted Holders in the Company, including Affiliates of the Company, the names of which are to be provided to the Depositary from time to time (each, a “Restricted Holder”), to hold Shares that constitute Restricted Securities as Restricted ADSs. The Depositary agrees to accommodate the issuance of Restricted ADSs, provided that (a) the terms of deposit of the Restricted Securities for Restricted ADSs neither (i) prejudice any substantial rights of existing Holders and Beneficial Owners of ADSs under the Deposit Agreement, nor (ii) violate or conflict with any law, rule or administrative position applicable to the ADSs, and (b) the terms of the Deposit Agreement are supplemented as set forth in this Second Amended and Restated Restricted ADS Letter Agreement - Affiliate and Restricted Securities Series Letter Agreement (hereinafter, the “Affiliate and Restricted Securities Series Letter Agreement”) to establish procedures for the deposit of Restricted Securities by the Company, or by, for, or on behalf of, Restricted Holders.

 

The purpose and intent of this Affiliate and Restricted Securities Series Letter Agreement is to supplement the Deposit Agreement and the Restricted ADS Letter Agreement for the purpose of accommodating (i) the issuance of Restricted ADSs to the Restricted Holders, (ii) the sale or transfer of such Restricted ADSs, and (iii) certain ancillary transactions further described below.

 

Series Exh. A-2 

 

 

For good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Company and the Depositary hereby agree, notwithstanding the terms of the Deposit Agreement, as follows:

 

1.                  Depositary Procedures.

Re:PIPE Securities Series Letter Agreement

 

Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

Reference is hereby made to (i) the Deposit Agreement, dated as of September 22, 2020 (the “Deposit Agreement”), by and among Compass Pathways plc, a public limited company incorporated under the laws of England and Wales (the “Company”), Citibank, N.A., a national banking association organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America, as Depositary (the “Depositary”), and all Holders and Beneficial Owners of American Depositary Shares (“ADSs”) issued thereunder, and (ii) the Restricted ADS Letter Agreement, dated as of August 18, 2023 (the “Restricted ADS Letter Agreement”), by and between the Company and the Depositary. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings given to them in the Deposit Agreement, or, in the event so noted herein, in the Restricted ADS Letter Agreement.

 

The Company has, upon the terms set forth in that certain Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of August 16, 2023 (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”), by and among the Company and each purchaser identified on Exhibit A thereto (each, an “ADS Purchaser”), offered and agreed to sell an aggregate of (i) 16,076,750 ADSs of the Company to the ADS Purchasers, such ADSs to be issued to the ADS Purchasers by the Depositary in the form of Restricted ADSs upon the terms set forth herein and the Restricted ADS Letter Agreement, and (ii) warrants to purchase up to 16,076,750 ADSs, in each case in reliance upon the exemptions from registration afforded by the provisions of Section 4(a)(2) (the “Section 4(a)(2) Exemption”) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), as promulgated by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under the Securities Act (such transaction, the “Private Placement”).

 

The purpose and intent of this PIPE Securities Series Letter Agreement is to supplement the Deposit Agreement and the Restricted ADS Letter Agreement for the purpose of accommodating (i) the issuance of Restricted ADSs to the ADS Purchasers in connection with the Private Placement (such Restricted ADSs, “Private Placement ADSs”), (ii) the sale, transfer or cancellation of such Private Placement ADSs, and (iii) certain ancillary transactions further described below.

 

For good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Company and the Depositary hereby agree, notwithstanding the terms of the Deposit Agreement, as follows:

 

Series Exh. B-2 

 

 

1.                  Deposit of Shares. The Company and the Depositary hereby agree that upon the consummation of the Private Placement, the Company shall (i) cause 16,076,750 Shares (the “Private Placement Shares”) to be issued and deposited with the Custodian and (ii) instruct the Depositary to issue and deliver the corresponding 16,076,750 Private Placement ADSs in the form of Restricted ADSs in respect thereof, in each case upon the terms of Section 2.13 and 2.14 of the Deposit Agreement, as supplemented by this PIPE Securities Series Letter Agreement and the Restricted ADS Letter Agreement, to the ADS Purchasers or their designees.

 

2.                  Depositary Procedures. In furtherance of the foregoing, the Company hereby instructs the Depositary, and the Depositary agrees, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in Section 2.14 of the Deposit Agreement as supplemented by this PIPE Securities Series Letter Agreement and the Restricted ADS Letter Agreement, to (i) establish procedures to enable (a) the Company to deposit 16,076,750 Private Placement Shares, to be represented by 16,076,750 Private Placement ADSs, with the Custodian by the Company on behalf of the ADS Purchasers as a valid deposit of such Private Placement Shares under the Deposit Agreement in order to enable the issuance by the Depositary of Restricted ADSs, and (b) the transfer of the Private Placement ADSs, the removal of the transfer and other restrictions with respect to Private Placement ADSs in order to create freely transferable unrestricted ADSs, and the withdrawal of the Private Placement Shares underlying the Private Placement ADSs, in each case upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Deposit Agreement as supplemented by the terms of this PIPE Securities Series Letter Agreement and the Restricted ADS Letter Agreement, and (ii) deliver an account statement (the “Account Statement”) to the holders of Private Placement ADSs following the issuance of the Private Placement ADSs upon the terms set forth herein. Nothing contained in this PIPE Securities Series Letter Agreement shall in any way obligate the Depositary, or give authority to the Depositary, to accept any Shares other than the Private Placement Shares described herein for deposit under the terms hereof.

 

The Depositary shall (i) cause the Private Placement ADSs issued upon the deposit of the corresponding Private Placement Shares to be separately identified on the books of the Depositary under CUSIP No.: 20451W994, and (ii) cause each of the Private Placement Shares represented by the Private Placement ADSs to be held, to the extent practicable, separate and distinct by the Custodian from the other Deposited Securities held by the Custodian in respect of the ADSs issued under the Deposit Agreement that are not Private Placement ADSs. The Private Placement ADSs shall not be eligible for inclusion for settlement in DTC.

 

The Company hereby advises the Depositary, and the Depositary hereby agrees and acknowledges, that the Private Placement ADSs issuable in accordance with the terms of this PIPE Securities Series Letter Agreement shall be eligible to exercise all voting rights and receive dividend distributions, in each case in the manner and to the extent otherwise afforded to Restricted ADSs pursuant to the Deposit Agreement.

In connection with the Private Placement, the Company hereby instructs the Depositary to issue the Private Placement ADSs in the form of Restricted ADSs against the registration and deposit of the Private Placement Shares by the Company, for and on behalf of the ADS Purchasers in connection with the Private Placement, subject to compliance with the terms and conditions of the Deposit Agreement, as supplemented by the Restricted ADS Letter Agreement, including, without limitation, receipt by the Depositary of all applicable fees.

Re:Warrant Exercise Series Letter Agreement

 

Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

Reference is hereby made to (i) the Deposit Agreement, dated as of September 22, 2020 (the “Deposit Agreement”), by and among Compass Pathways plc, a public limited company incorporated under the laws of England and Wales (the “Company”), Citibank, N.A., a national banking association organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America, as Depositary (the “Depositary”), and all Holders and Beneficial Owners of American Depositary Shares (“ADSs”) issued thereunder, and (ii) the Restricted ADS Letter Agreement, dated as of August 18, 2023 (the “Restricted ADS Letter Agreement”), by and between the Company and the Depositary. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings given to them in the Deposit Agreement, or, in the event so noted herein, in the Restricted ADS Letter Agreement.

 

The Company has, upon the terms set forth in that certain Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of August 16, 2023 (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”), by and among the Company and each purchaser identified on Exhibit A thereto (the “ADS Purchasers”), offered and agreed to sell an aggregate of (i) 16,076,750 ADSs of the Company to the ADS Purchasers, such ADSs to be issued to the ADS Purchasers by the Depositary in the form of Restricted ADSs upon the terms set forth herein and the Restricted ADS Letter Agreement, and (ii) warrants (as each may be amended from time to time, the “Warrants”) to purchase up to 16,076,750 ADSs, in each case in reliance upon the exemptions from registration afforded by the provisions of Section 4(a)(2) (the “Section 4(a)(2) Exemption”) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), as promulgated by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under the Securities Act.

 

The purpose and intent of this Warrant Exercise Series Letter Agreement is to supplement the Deposit Agreement and the Restricted ADS Letter Agreement for the purpose of accommodating (i) the deposit of Shares (the “Warrant Shares”), by the Company or by, or on behalf of, a holder of Warrants (each, a “Warrant Holder”) upon such Warrant Holder’s exercise of a Warrant (a “Warrant Exercise”), (ii) the issuance of unrestricted, freely transferable ADSs (the “Unrestricted Warrant ADSs”) or Restricted ADSs (the “Restricted Warrant ADSs” and together with Unrestricted Warrant ADSs, the “Warrant ADSs”) to the Warrant Holders, as applicable, in connection with a Warrant Exercise, (iii) the sale, transfer or cancellation of such Restricted Warrant ADSs, and (iv) certain ancillary transactions further described below.

 

Series Exh. C-2 

 

 

For good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Company and the Depositary hereby agree, notwithstanding the terms of the Deposit Agreement, as follows:

 

1.                  Deposit of Shares. The Company and the Depositary hereby agree that from time to time following a Warrant Exercise, Warrant Shares may be issued and deposited with the Custodian under the Deposit Agreement in accordance with the terms thereof, the Restricted ADS Letter Agreement and this Warrant Exercise Series Letter Agreement.

 

2.                  Issuance of Restricted ADSs or ADSs upon Warrant Exercise.

 

(a)               Upon a Warrant Exercise, except as provided in Section 2(b) below, the Company hereby instructs the Depositary to issue Restricted Warrant ADSs against the deposit of Warrant Shares by the Company, or by, for, or on behalf of Warrant Holders, subject to compliance with the terms and conditions of the Deposit Agreement, the Restricted ADS Letter Agreement and this Warrant Exercise Series Letter Agreement.

 

The Depositary hereby agrees to deliver the Restricted Warrant ADSs in accordance with the Deposit Agreement, the Restricted ADS Letter Agreement and this Warrant Exercise Series Letter Agreement upon receipt from the Company of (i) duly completed and signed Exercise Issuance Instruction to issue Restricted Warrant ADSs against the deposit of Warrant Shares by the Company, or by, for, or on behalf of Warrant Holders, substantially in the form annexed hereto as Appendix 1 (such instruction, the “Exercise Issuance Instruction”), (ii) confirmation of deposit from the Custodian of the applicable Warrant Shares by the Company, or by, for or on behalf of Warrant Holders, (iii) the opinions referred in Section 6 below, and (iv) payment of the ADS issuance fees, taxes and expenses otherwise payable under the terms of the Deposit Agreement, the Restricted ADS Letter Agreement and this Warrant Exercise Series Letter Agreement.

 

(b)               Upon the exercise of Warrants, only in the case of (i) in a transaction exempt from registration pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act, if available, (ii) in an offshore transaction (as defined in Regulation S under the Securities Act) to persons other than U.S. Persons (as defined in Regulation S under the Securities Act) in accordance with Rule 904 of Regulation S under the Securities Act, (iii) pursuant to any other available exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, or (iv) pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, covering the Warrant ADSs, in each case in accordance with any applicable securities laws of the states of the United States, the Company hereby instructs the Depositary to issue Unrestricted Warrant ADSs against the deposit of Warrant Shares by the Company.

 

The Depositary hereby agrees to deliver Unrestricted Warrant ADSs in the form of ADSs in accordance with the Deposit Agreement upon its receipt from the Company of (i) duly completed and signed Exercise Issuance Instruction to issue ADSs against the deposit of Warrant Shares by the Company, (ii) confirmation of deposit from the Custodian of the applicable Warrant Shares by the Company on behalf of Warrant Holders, (iii) an opinion of U.S. counsel to the Company stating, inter alia, that the registration statement filed under the Securities Act in respect of the re-offer and re-sale of the ADSs has become effective under the Securities Act or that the issuance of ADSs against the deposit of Warrant Shares upon Warrant Exercise is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, and (iv) payment of the applicable ADS issuance fees, taxes and expenses otherwise payable under the terms of the Deposit Agreement and this Letter Agreement.

3.                  Depositary Procedures – Restricted Warrant ADSs. In furtherance of the foregoing, the Company hereby instructs the Depositary, and the Depositary agrees, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in Section 2.14 of the Deposit Agreement as supplemented by this Warrant Exercise Series Letter Agreement and the Restricted ADS Letter Agreement, to (i) establish procedures to enable (a) the Company to deposit up to an aggregate of 16,076,750 Warrant Shares, to be represented by up to 16,076,750 Restricted Warrant ADSs, with the Custodian by the Company on behalf of the Warrant Holders as a valid deposit of such Warrant Shares under the Deposit Agreement in order to enable the issuance by the Depositary of Restricted Warrant ADSs, and (b) the transfer of the Restricted Warrant ADSs, the removal of the transfer and other restrictions with respect to Restricted Warrant ADSs in order to create freely transferable unrestricted ADSs, and the withdrawal of the Warrant Shares underlying the Restricted Warrant ADSs, in each case upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Deposit Agreement as supplemented by the terms of this Warrant Exercise Series Letter Agreement and the Restricted ADS Letter Agreement, and (ii) deliver an account statement (the “Account Statement”) to the holders of Restricted Warrant ADSs following the issuance of the Restricted Warrant ADSs upon the terms set forth herein. Nothing contained in this Warrant Exercise Series Letter Agreement shall in any way obligate the Depositary, or give authority to the Depositary, to accept any Shares other than the Warrant Shares described herein for deposit under the terms hereof.

 

The Depositary shall (i) cause the Restricted Warrant ADSs issued upon the deposit of the corresponding Warrant Shares to be separately identified on the books of the Depositary under CUSIP No.: 20451W994, and (ii) cause each of the Warrant Shares represented by the Restricted Warrant ADSs to be held, to the extent practicable, separate and distinct by the Custodian from the other Deposited Securities held by the Custodian in respect of the ADSs issued under the Deposit Agreement that are not Restricted Warrant ADSs. The Restricted Warrant ADSs shall not be eligible for inclusion for settlement in DTC.

 

The Company hereby advises the Depositary, and the Depositary hereby agrees and acknowledges, that the Restricted Warrant ADSs issuable in accordance with the terms of this Warrant Exercise Series Letter Agreement shall be eligible to exercise all voting rights and receive dividend distributions, in each case in the manner and to the extent otherwise afforded to Restricted ADSs pursuant to the Deposit Agreement.

 

The Depositary is hereby authorized and directed to issue the Restricted Warrant ADSs as uncertificated Restricted ADSs registered on the books of the Depositary in the name of the ADS Purchasers or their respective designees for the benefit of each such ADS Purchaser.

5.                  Representations and Warranties. The Company hereby represents and warrants as of the date hereof and as of the date of each subsequent deposit of Warrant Shares pursuant to this Warrant Exercise Series Letter Agreement that (a) the Warrant Shares being deposited or to be deposited by the Company, or by, for, or on behalf of, the Warrant Holders for the purpose of the issuance of Warrant ADSs are, or will be, validly issued, fully paid and therefore not subject to any call for the payment of further capital, non-assessable, and free and clear of any lien, encumbrance, security interest, charge, mortgage, adverse claim or preemptive rights of the holders of outstanding Shares (save for those conferred under statute or set out in article 8 of the Company’s articles of association adopted on 22 September 2020), and free from any transfer and voting restrictions (save for those conferred under statute), (b) all approvals required by the laws of England and Wales to permit the deposit of Warrant Shares under the Deposit Agreement, the Restricted ADS Letter Agreement and this Warrant Exercise Series Letter Agreement have been, or will be, obtained prior to the deposit of Warrant Shares, (c) the Warrant Shares are of the same class as, and rank pari passu with, the other Shares on deposit under the Deposit Agreement (notwithstanding the parentheticals in (a), above), (d) to the Company’s knowledge, none of the terms of this Warrant Exercise Series Letter Agreement and none of the transactions contemplated in this Warrant Exercise Series Letter Agreement violate any court judgment or order issued against the Company or any material contract to which it is a party, (e) the deposit from time to time of Warrant Shares by the Company, or by, for, or on behalf of, Warrant Holders and the issuance and delivery of Restricted Warrant ADSs, in each case upon the terms contemplated herein, will not, as of the time of such deposit and issuance, require registration under the Securities Act, and (f) except in the case of the deposit of Warrant Shares in connection with the proposed issuance of Restricted Warrant ADSs pursuant to the Restricted ADS Letter Agreement and this Warrant Exercise Series Letter Agreement, the Warrant Shares to be deposited hereunder are not “Restricted Securities” (as that term is defined in the Deposit Agreement).
