INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS REPORT ON FORM 6-K

Background

As previously disclosed, Carbon Revolution Public Limited Company (the “Company”) entered into agreements for a Structured Equity Facility (the “OIC Financing”) for up to US$110 million in funding, subject to satisfying various conditions precedent to each tranche of funding. The initial gross proceeds of US$35 million were received by the Company on November 3, 2023 pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement by and among the Company and the fund vehicles affiliated with Orion Infrastructure Capital (“OIC” and, collectively, the “OIC Investors”) party thereto, while an additional US$35 million was funded into an escrow account on such date and has been held in escrow, with the release of such funds subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions.

On May 23, 2023, Carbon Revolution Operations PTY LTD., an Australian private limited company and indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Carbon Revolution Operations”), entered into a Trust Indenture by and between Carbon Revolution Operations and UMB Bank, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”, and such Trust Indenture, as amended by the First Supplemental Indenture thereto, dated September 11, 2023, the “Indenture”). The Indenture and the Series 2023-A Notes issued thereunder were executed and issued pursuant to the New Debt Program arranged by PIUS Limited LLC and its affiliates. Carbon Revolution Operations, the Trustee, as Disbursing Agent, Gallagher IP Solutions LLC, as successor to Newlight Capital LLC, as Servicer, and the Company and certain other subsidiaries of the Company, as co-obligors (the “Co-Obligors”), are parties to a Proceeds Disbursing and Security Agreement, dated May 23, 2023 (as amended from time to time, the “PDSA”), providing the terms upon which the proceeds of the Series 2023-A Notes may be disbursed to Carbon Revolution Operations, a security interest for the benefit of the holders of the Series 2023-A Notes in the present and after-acquired property of Carbon Revolution Operations and the Co-Obligors, including its intellectual property but excluding certain excluded property and certain excluded intellectual property, and various financial and other covenants.

On April 10, 2024, the Company and the OIC Investors entered into Amendment No. 1 to the aforementioned Securities Purchase Agreement, providing for an early release of US$5 million from escrow in exchange for shares of a newly created class of Class B Preferred Shares. On May 24, 2024, the Company and the OIC Investors entered into Amendment No. 2 to the Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Second SPA Amendment”), providing that all or a portion of the remaining US$30 million held in the escrow account may be released in exchange for preferred shares issued by the Company or debt instruments issued by the Company or its subsidiaries, including Carbon Revolution Operations, as well as associated warrants. As contemplated by the Second SPA Amendment, on May 24, 2024, Carbon Revolution Operations issued US$5 million aggregate principal amount of a newly created series of Fixed Rate Senior Notes, Series 2024-A (the “Series 2024-A Notes”). The Series 2024-A Notes were created pursuant to a Second Supplemental Indenture, dated May 24, 2024 (the “Second Supplemental Indenture”) by and between Carbon Revolution Operations and the Trustee to the Indenture. The Second Supplemental Indenture provides for the issuance of up to $30 million aggregate principal amount of Series 2024-A Notes to the OIC Investors.

Amendment to Securities Purchase Agreement

On June 21, 2024, the Company and the OIC Investors entered into Amendment No. 3 to the Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Third SPA Amendment”), providing for the release of the remaining US$25 million in escrow in five tranches, each equal to US$5 million, subject to satisfying certain reserve release conditions (as discussed below) in exchange for preferred shares issued by the Company or debt instruments issued by Carbon Revolution Operations. In connection with the release of each of the five tranches of US$5 million from escrow, the Company will issue to the OIC Investors a warrant to purchase a number of shares equal to 2.5% of the Company’s shares outstanding, determined on a “Fully-Diluted Basis” in the same manner as applicable to the existing warrants previously issued to the OIC Investors.


Reserve Release Conditions

The remaining US$25 million in escrow will be released in US$5 million increments upon the satisfaction of certain reserve release conditions (the satisfaction of each reserve release condition, each a “Subsequent Reserve Release”). The Company must achieve certain Minimum Trailing Three Month Revenue (as defined in the Third SPA Amendment) and Minimum Trailing Three Month Adjusted EBITDA (as defined in the Third SPA Amendment) thresholds in order to satisfy each of the reserve release conditions. Depending on the Company’s achievement of the applicable Minimum Trailing Three Month Revenue and Minimum Trailing Three Month Adjusted EBITDA thresholds for the release of the final US$5 million from escrow, in connection with such release, the OIC Investors may be required to acquire US$5 million aggregate principal amount of a newly created series of Fixed Rate Senior Notes, Series 2024-B Notes (the “Last Out Notes”), which, if issued, will be subordinated to the Series 2024-A Notes.

Pursuant to the Third SPA Amendment, each set of conditions is measured for the three-month period ending on the last day of the most recently completed calendar month, with the last four reserve releases permitted no earlier than July 1, 2024, August 1, 2024, September 1, 2024 and October 1, 2024, respectively. As described below, on June 21, 2024 the Company satisfied one of the reserve release conditions.

Amendment to the OIC Warrants

On June 21, 2024, the Company and the OIC Investors entered into Amendment No. 2 to the Warrant dated November 3, 2023 (the “Second Amended OIC Warrant”) to revise the vesting schedule of the 5% of the existing warrant that was due to vest upon the release of the aggregate of US$35 million initially held in escrow subject to the applicable vesting condition. The Second Amended OIC Warrant provides (i) that 0.7% of the existing warrant vested in connection with the April 10, 2024 escrow release, (ii) that 0.45% of the existing warrant vested in connection with the May 24, 2024 escrow release, (iii) for the forfeiture of a portion of the existing warrant equal to 2.15%, and (iii) that the remaining 2.15% of the existing warrant will vest proportionally in 0.45% increments at the release of each of the first four of the five tranches of the remaining US$25 million in escrow. Also on June 21, 2024, the Company and the OIC Investors entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Warrant dated April 10, 2024 (the “Amended April 2024 Warrant”) and Amendment No. 1 to the Warrant dated May 24, 2024 (the “Amended May 2024 Warrant”), each providing for certain immaterial amendments to the respective warrants.

Amendment to IP-Backed Finance Facility and Letter Agreement

On June 21, 2024, Carbon Revolution Operations and the Trustee to the Indenture entered into a Third Supplemental Indenture (the “Third Supplemental Indenture”) and a Sixth Amendment to the PDSA (the “Sixth Amendment”). The Third Supplemental Indenture (i) creates of a new series of notes, the Last Out Notes, which, if issued, would be subordinated to the Series 2023-A Notes and Series 2024-A Notes, (ii) increases the exit fee payable on the Series 2024-A Notes by $10 million (the “Additional Exit Fee”) and (iii) adds $100,000 to the aggregate principal amount of the Series 2024-A Notes as a fee paid to the OIC Investors in connection with the foregoing amendments. The Sixth Amendment (i) adds a financial covenant containing a limit on capital expenditures, (ii) permits the incurrence of up to a certain amount of indebtedness for tooling finance and (iii) makes certain other technical changes in connection with the other amendments described herein.

Pursuant to a letter agreement, each of the OIC Investors and the Company agreed that any amounts paid in cash dividends or in redemption of the Class B Preferred Shares shall reduce the amount of the Additional Exit Fee and any amount paid toward the Additional Exit Fee shall reduce the amount payable to redeem the Class B Preferred Shares.

Issuance of US$5 million of Series 2024-A Notes and Warrants

On June 21, 2024, upon the satisfaction of the first of the new reserve release conditions (the third overall release, including the releases on April 10 and May 24), US$5 million was released from escrow in exchange for the issuance to the OIC Investors of US$5 million aggregate principal amount of Series 2024-A Notes and an additional warrant in the form furnished as Exhibit 99.5 to this report (the “Additional New Warrant”) to purchase a number of shares equal to 2.5% of the Company’s shares outstanding, determined on a “Fully-Diluted Basis” in the same manner as applicable to the existing warrants previously issued to the OIC Investors, and otherwise containing the same terms as the warrants issued to the OIC Investors in May 2024.


The Company reimbursed the OIC Investor’s legal expenses in connection with the foregoing amendments, which was deducted from the proceeds of the issuance of the Series 2024-A Notes paid to the Company. Giving effect to the receipt of the net proceeds of the issuance of the US$5 million of Series 2024-A Notes, the Company has approximately US$5.6 million of unrestricted cash and approximately US$4.8 million of restricted cash as of June 23, 2024.

(e)          Holder Consent.  The Company shall obtain the written consent of the Holders prior to: (i) for so long as the Holders collectively beneficially own equal to or greater than 10.0% of the aggregate number of issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares calculated on a Fully-Diluted Basis (assuming for purposes of determining the numerator and the denominator in such calculation that any unvested portion of the Vested Warrant Amount of the Existing Warrants has been vested), issuing Ordinary Shares in the Company (other than pursuant to the exercise of a Company Warrant or the Equity Incentive Plan) at a price per share less than the Maximum Discount; provided, however, that the Holders shall be deemed to have waived their consent rights under this clause (i) if prior to such time the investment committee of the Holders has failed to approve a subscription for Subsequent Acquired Interests at a time when all other conditions in Article 7 of the Securities Purchase Agreement relating to such Subsequent Closing have been satisfied; (ii) for so long as the Holders collectively beneficially own equal to or greater than 10.0% of the aggregate number of issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares calculated on a Fully-Diluted Basis (assuming for purposes of determining the numerator and the denominator in such calculation that any unvested portion of the Vested Warrant Amount of the Existing Warrants has been vested), issuing Ordinary Shares in the Company (other than pursuant to the exercise of a Company Warrant) if after giving effect to such issuance the Holders would collectively beneficially own less than 10.0% of the aggregate number of issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares, in each case, calculated on a Fully-Diluted Basis (assuming for purposes of determining the numerator and the denominator in such calculation that any unvested portion of the Vested Warrant Amount of the Existing Warrants has been vested) (a “Dilutive Issuance”); provided, however, that the Holders shall be deemed to have waived their consent rights under this clause (ii) with respect to any future Dilutive Issuance if (x) the Holders have previously provided their written consent to a Dilutive Issuance pursuant to this clause (ii) or (y) prior to such time the investment committee of the Holders has failed to approve a subscription for Subsequent Acquired Interests at a time when all other conditions in Article 7 of the Securities Purchase Agreement relating to such Subsequent Closing have been satisfied; or (iii) amending the Company Articles in a manner that alters any provisions of the Company Articles that would be materially adverse to the Holders in their capacity as holders of this Warrant or as Members.  For purposes of the foregoing, beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder.
 

7.           Adjustment to Number of Ordinary Shares and Exercise Price.  In order to prevent dilution of the rights granted under this Warrant, the Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as provided in this Section 7, and the number of Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as provided in this Section 7; provided, however, if more than one subsection of this Section 7 is applicable to a single event, the subsection shall be applied that produces the largest adjustment and no single event shall cause an adjustment under more than one subsection of this Section 7 so as to result in duplication.

(a)          Subdivision or Combination of Ordinary Shares.  If the Company at any time while this Warrant remains outstanding and unexpired shall subdivide or combine its Equity Interests, the Exercise Price shall be proportionately decreased in the case of a subdivision or increased in the case of a combination and the number of Ordinary Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable shall be correspondingly adjusted.

(b)          Reclassification, Reorganization and Consolidation.  In case of any reclassification, capital reorganization or change in the Equity Interests of the Company (other than as a result of a subdivision, combination provided for in Section 7(a) above or an in-kind distribution provided for in Section 7(c) below), then, as a condition of such reclassification, reorganization or change, lawful provision shall be made, and duly executed documents evidencing the same from the Company or its successor shall be delivered to the Holders, so that the Holders shall have the right at any time prior to the expiration of this Warrant to purchase, at a total price equal to that payable upon the exercise of this Warrant, the kind and amount of Equity Interests and other securities or property receivable in connection with such reclassification, reorganization or change by a holder of a proportionate number and type of securities as were purchasable as Ordinary Shares by the Holders immediately prior to such reclassification, reorganization or change.  In any such case appropriate provisions shall be made with respect to the rights and interest of the Holders so that the provisions hereof shall thereafter be applicable with respect to any Equity Interests or other securities or property deliverable upon exercise hereof, and appropriate adjustments shall be made to the Exercise Price per Ordinary Share payable hereunder; provided, that the aggregate Exercise Price shall remain the same (subject to adjustment in accordance with this Section 7).

(c)          Distributions of Ordinary Shares or Other Securities or Property.  If at any time while this Warrant remains outstanding and unexpired, the holders of the Equity Interests as to which purchase rights under this Warrant exist at the time shall have received, or, on or after the date fixed for the determination of eligible Members, shall have become entitled to receive, without payment therefor, other or additional Equity Interests or other property (other than cash) of the Company by way of distribution, then and in each case, this Warrant shall represent the right to acquire, in addition to the number of Ordinary Shares receivable upon exercise of this Warrant, and without payment of any additional consideration therefor, the amount of such other or additional Equity Interests or other property (other than cash) of the Company that the Holders would hold on the date of such exercise had they been the holder of record of the Ordinary Shares receivable upon exercise of this Warrant on the date hereof and had thereafter, during the period from the date hereof to and including the date of such exercise, retained such Ordinary Shares and/or all other additional Equity Interests available by it as aforesaid during such period, giving effect to all adjustments called for during such period by the provisions of this Section 7.
 
(d)          Fractional Shares.  No fractional Ordinary Shares or scrip representing fractional Ordinary Shares will be issued in connection with any exercise hereunder.  In lieu of any fractional Ordinary Shares to which the Holders would otherwise be entitled, the number of Ordinary Shares to be issued upon exercise of this Warrant shall be rounded down to the nearest whole Ordinary Share.
 

(e)          Maximum Percentage.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Holders shall not be entitled to exercise this Warrant to the extent that such exercise would result in the Holders together with any other “attribution parties” collectively beneficially owning in the aggregate in excess of 4.99% (the “Maximum Percentage”) of the number of Ordinary Shares in issue and outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise; provided, however, that (i) the Maximum Percentage shall automatically increase to 9.99% if, at the time of such exercise, the Holders, together with any other “attribution parties,” file any Securities and Exchange Commission reports required as a result of such Holders and such other “attribution parties” collectively beneficially owning in the aggregate in excess of 4.99% of the number of Ordinary Shares in issue and outstanding and (ii) at any time, upon not less than 61 days written notice to the Company, the Holders may increase or decrease the Maximum Percentage to any other percentage.  For purposes of this Section 7(e), “attribution parties” means, the Holders, their respective affiliates and any other persons whose beneficial ownership of Ordinary Shares would be aggregated with the Holders’ for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
 
8.           Transfer of Warrant.
 
(a)          Subject to the transfer conditions referred to in the legend endorsed hereon and the other applicable terms and conditions of this Warrant, until the material breach by the Company of this Warrant or the Company Articles (the “Warrant Holder Period”), the Holders shall not Transfer this Warrant except to their respective Affiliates, any Related Fund or holder of Equity Interests of the Holders.  Upon and following the expiration of the Warrant Holder Period, the Holders may Transfer this Warrant to any Person.  Any Transfer pursuant to this Section 8 shall be implemented by delivering (by email or otherwise) this Warrant to the Company with a duly executed and delivered instrument of Transfer, together with evidence of payment of any relevant stamp duty or transfer taxes by the Transferee.  Upon such surrender of the Warrant and subject to the payment of any relevant stamp duty or transfer taxes by the Transferee, the Company shall execute and deliver any new Warrant(s) in the names of the Transferor and permitted Transferees, as applicable, and in accordance with the denominations specified in such instrument of Transfer, and this Warrant shall automatically be cancelled, and the Company shall register the permitted Transferees, and the permitted Transferees shall be deemed to have become, and shall be treated for all purposes as, the holders of record of the new Warrant(s) immediately upon issuance of such new Warrant(s) to such permitted Transferees.  Any Transfer in violation of this Section 8 shall be void ab initio.
 
(b)          The Holders understand that this Warrant, and any securities issued in respect hereof or exchange herefor, will bear, for so long as is required by applicable securities laws, a legend in substantially the form of subsection (i) and may bear the legends stated in subsection (ii):
 
(i)      “THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED, ASSIGNED, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR PURSUANT TO RULE 144 OR AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER SUCH ACT.”
 
(ii)         Any legend required by the securities laws of any state to the extent such laws are applicable to the securities represented by the certificate or other document so legended.
 

(c)          Certificates or book entries evidencing title to this Warrant and any securities issued in respect hereof or exchange herefor that cease to be restricted pursuant to applicable securities laws shall not contain any legend (including the legends set forth in Section 8(b)) and, promptly following the date on which such securities cease to be restricted pursuant to applicable securities laws, and following the delivery by the Holders and the Holders’ broker(s) to the Company, its legal counsel and the Company’s transfer agent of customary representations and other documentation (including, for the avoidance of doubt, customary certificates and representation letters, but not including any notarized or medallion guaranteed documents) and other representations and documentation as required by law or regulation evidencing that the applicable securities have ceased to be restricted pursuant to applicable securities laws and that the removal of such legend may be effected under the Securities Act, the Company shall cause (i) its legal counsel to issue a customary legal opinion to the Company’s transfer agent to effect the removal of the applicable legends on such securities and (ii) the Company’s transfer agent to deliver to the Holders such securities that are free from all restrictive and other legends by crediting the account of the Holders’ broker with the Depository Trust Company system as directed by the Holders.
 
9.           Replacement on Loss.  In the event that the Holders notify the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant, then upon delivery of an indemnity bond or lost warrant affidavit sufficient in the reasonable determination of the Company to protect the Company from any loss that it may suffer if the Warrant is replaced and, in case of mutilation, upon surrender of such Warrant for cancellation to the Company, the Company shall execute and deliver to the Holders, in lieu hereof, a new Warrant of like tenor and exercisable for an equivalent number of Ordinary Shares as the Warrant so lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed and the replaced Warrant shall automatically be cancelled; provided, that, in the case of mutilation, no indemnity bond or lost warrant affidavit shall be required if this Warrant in identifiable form is surrendered to the Company for cancellation.
 
10.         Warrant Register.  The Company shall keep and properly maintain at its executive offices records of the registration of this Warrant and any permitted and duly made transfers or exercises thereof.  The Company may deem and treat the Person in whose name this Warrant is registered in such register as the holder thereof for all purposes, and the Company shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary, except any assignment, division or other transfer of the Warrant effected in accordance with the provisions of this Warrant.

(i)        the Last Out Notes are redeemed in a Bankruptcy Event, or as part of any other exercise of remedies by the Noteholders; or
 
(ii)       the Series 2023-A Notes, Series 2024-A Notes and Last Out Notes are redeemed as part of a refinancing, where the proceeds from such refinancing are not sufficient to pay the Last Out Exit Premium following the payment in full in cash of all principal and accrued and unpaid interest due on the Series 2023-A Notes, Series 2024-A Notes and the Last Out Notes.

The Series 2023-A Notes are being offered and placed by the Placement Agent on behalf of the Issuer directly to the Note Purchasers pursuant to a Private Placement Memorandum dated May 23, 2023 (the “Private Placement Memorandum”), which Private Placement Memorandum has been authorized and signed by the Issuer. The Series 2023-A Notes shall be issuable only as fully-registered notes without coupons in Authorized Denominations. The Series 2023-A Notes shall be substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit A to the Indenture (and not, for the avoidance of doubt, Exhibit A to the Second Supplemental Indenture) with such variations, insertions, or omissions as are appropriate and not inconsistent therewith. Principal of and interest on the Series 2023-A Notes shall be payable in the amounts, at the rates, and at such times as set forth in Exhibit A to the Indenture and in any coin or currency of the United States of America that at the time of payment is legal tender for the payment of public and private debts; provided however, that if the Issuer has notified the Noteholders and the Trustee in writing on the first day of each Interest Period whether it elects to pay PIK Interest or is otherwise deemed to have elected to pay PIK Interest with respect to any Series 2024-A Notes, then the 2023-A PIK Fee shall accrue on each Series 2023-A Notes for the applicable period in which such PIK Interest is elected; provided that if the Issuer does not so timely elect the form of interest payment, then the Issuer will be deemed to have selected to pay the 2023-A PIK Fee as PIK Interest (and, for the avoidance of doubt, the failure to timely make such election will not constitute a Default or Event of Default). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in the Notes, in addition to the principal and interest on the Series 2023-A Notes as set forth in Exhibit A to the Indenture, the 2023-A Exit Premium (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the 2023-A PIK Fee) shall be payable on the final Note Interest Payment Date (being the Stated Maturity Date of the Series 2023-A Notes). The Issuer agrees to deliver a written order to the Trustee no later than five (5) Business Days prior to each Note Interest Payment Date with respect to which the Issuer has elected to pay PIK Interest, stating the amount of accrued and unpaid PIK Interest payable on each Series 2023-A Note for the applicable Interest Period to the nearest cent (with half of one cent rounded upward), together with all other information requested by the Trustee or any Holder in order to allocate such payment (it being understood and agreed that the 2023-A PIK Fee shall be increased by an amount equal to such PIK Interest on such Note Interest Payment Date rather than increasing the principal balance on such Note Interest Payment Date). The Trustee shall be entitled to rely upon such written order from the Issuer (without incurring any liability), including any and all amounts, calculations, and/or other information contained in such written order without any obligation to further review, analyze, verify, confirm, and/or investigate any such information contained therein.”

The Issuer shall notify in writing the Holders and the Trustee on or before the first day of each Interest Period whether it elects to pay PIK Interest for such Interest Period; provided that if the Issuer does not so timely elect the form of interest payment, then the Issuer will be deemed to have selected to pay PIK Interest of 3.50% and Cash Interest of 8.50% (and, for the avoidance of doubt, the failure to timely make such election will not constitute a Default or Event of Default). The Issuer agrees to deliver a written order to the Trustee no later than five (5) Business Days prior to each Note Interest Payment Date with respect to which the Issuer has elected to pay PIK Interest, stating the amount of accrued and unpaid PIK Interest payable on each Last Out Note for the applicable Interest Period to the nearest cent (with half of one cent rounded upward), together with all other information requested by the Trustee or any Holder in order to allocate such payment (which may include the amount of the principal increase as a result of the PIK Interest).

(d)
Any PIK Interest on the Last Out Notes will be payable to Holders by its addition to the principal amount of each Last Out Note in the manner provided in the next sentence. Effective immediately before the close of business on each Note Interest Payment Date, the principal amount of each Last Out Note then Outstanding will be deemed to be increased by the amount of accrued and unpaid PIK Interest on such Last Out Note for the period since the prior Note Interest Payment Date, rounded up to the nearest $1.00, and the Trustee will, promptly after receipt of a written order from the Issuer, record such increase in principal amount as set forth in such written order.

Section 2.11      Security. The payments of principal of and interest on the Series 2023-A Notes, Series 2024-A Notes and Last Out Notes shall be secured by the Trust Estate, including an assignment by the Trustee to the Servicer of the Proceeds Disbursing Agreement, including all Obligor Payments and other amounts payable to the Trustee under the Proceeds Disbursing Agreement, the cash balances in the Payment Reserve Fund and other funds maintained by the Trustee, provided that notwithstanding anything contrary to the foregoing, the Payment Reserve Fund and the Insurance Proceeds Fund and the funds deposited therein shall be for the sole benefit of the Series 2023-A Notes and shall not secure payments of principal of and interest on the Series 2024-A Notes and Last Out Notes. In addition, as provided in the Insurance Policy, to the extent other amounts are insufficient to pay debt service on the Series 2023-A Notes when due, payments made by the Insurer under the Insurance Policy may be used to make such payments. All funds established in this Indenture for the benefit of the Series 2023-A Notes are pledged and assigned under the Transaction Documents for the equal and proportionate benefit of the Holders of the Series 2023-A Notes and, except as otherwise provided in the Transaction Documents, may be used for no purpose other than payment of the Series 2023-A Notes. All funds established in this Indenture for the benefit of the Series 2024-A Notes (except with respect to any amount of an Insurance Payment that is transferred to such fund) are pledged and assigned under the Transaction Documents for the equal and proportionate benefit of the Holders of the Series 2024-A Notes and the Last Out Notes, respectively, and, except as otherwise provided in the Transaction Documents (including subject to the terms of the Last Out Subordination Agreement), may be used for no purpose other than payment of the Series 2024-A Notes and the Last Out Notes. The obligation of the Issuer to abide by the terms of the Indenture and the Notes shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be subject to any defense or any right of set off, counterclaim or recoupment arising out of any breach by the Trustee or any Noteholder of any obligation to the Issuer or otherwise with respect to the Notes or out of any indebtedness or liability at any time owing to the Issuer by the Trustee. Until such time as all of the Notes shall have been fully paid or redeemed, the Issuer will not suspend or discontinue any payments provided for herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuer’s obligation to make payments on the Notes is limited to the components of the Trust Estate. If the sources comprising the Trust Estate do not provide funds sufficient to make payments on the Notes, the Issuer is under no obligation to make such payments. For the avoidance of doubt, the Issuer has an obligation to make all payments in accordance with the Transaction Documents, including the outstanding principal and accrued interest on the Notes. Pursuant to the Trustee Services Agreement, the Trustee has assigned the Trust Estate to the Servicer, other than the Insurance Policy, which has been issued directly to the Trustee as Named Insured. For the avoidance of doubt, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, all amounts paid by the Insurer under the Insurance Policy, including amounts deposited in the Insurance Proceeds Fund that are subsequently transferred to the Debt Service Fund, shall be applied solely to the payment of the Series 2023-A Notes.”

The undersigned, __________, intends to purchase from Carbon Revolution Operations Pty Ltd (the “Issuer”) a $_______ portion of the Issuer’s above-referenced Fixed Rate Senior Notes, Series 2024-B (the “Last Out Notes”), either on its own behalf or on behalf of its customers (the purchasing entity or each customer is referred to herein as a “Purchaser”). The Last Out Notes will be issued pursuant to a Trust Indenture dated as of May 23, 2023 (the “Indenture”) between the Issuer and UMB Bank, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”). Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed to them in the Indenture.
 
In connection with the purchase of the Last Out Notes, the undersigned, each Purchaser hereby agrees to the following terms and conditions and makes the representations and warranties stated herein as of the date hereof with the express understanding that the truth and accuracy of the representations and warranties will be relied upon by the Issuer and the Trustee:
 
1.
The Purchaser understands and acknowledges that the Last Out Notes are being offered only in a transaction that does not require registration under the Securities Act or any other securities laws, that the Last Out Notes will not be registered or qualified under the Securities Act or any other applicable securities laws and, unless so registered, may not be offered, sold or otherwise transferred except in compliance with the registration requirements of the Securities Act and any other applicable securities laws, pursuant to an exemption therefrom or in a transaction not subject thereto and in each case in compliance with the conditions for transfer set forth below.
 
2.
[RESERVED].
 
3.
The Purchaser is a Qualified Institutional Buyer or an Institutional Accredited Investor and is aware (and if it is acquiring the Last Out Notes for the account of one or more Qualified Institutional Buyers or Institutional Accredited Investors, each is aware) that the Issuer is relying on the exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act, is acquiring the Last Out Notes for its own account or for the account of one or more Qualified Institutional Buyers or Institutional Accredited Investors for whom it is authorized to act, in either case for investment purposes and not for distribution in violation of the Securities Act, is able to bear the economic risk of an investment in the Last Out Notes and has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of purchasing the Last Out Notes.

[RESERVED].
 
6.
[RESERVED].
 
7.
None of the Issuer, the Insurer, the Trustee, or any of their respective Affiliates is acting as a fiduciary or financial or investment advisor for the Purchaser with respect to the purchase of the Last Out Notes. The Purchaser is not relying (for purposes of making any investment decision or otherwise) upon any advice, counsel or representations (whether written or oral) of the Issuer, the Insurer, the Trustee, or any of their respective Affiliates, except for representations in the Transaction Documents.
 
8.
Notwithstanding the foregoing in paragraph 7, the Purchaser has had the opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from the Issuer and the Insurer concerning the purchase of the Last Out Notes and all matters relating thereto or any additional information deemed necessary to its decision to purchase or acquire the Last Out Notes. The Purchaser has made its own independent review of credit and related matters applicable to the Issuer, the purchase and holding of the Last Out Notes and otherwise to its investment in the Last Out Notes.
 
9.
[RESERVED].
 
10.
The Purchaser understands that none of the Issuer, the Trustee or any other party makes any representation as to the proper characterization of the Last Out Notes for legal investment or other purposes, or as to the ability of particular investors to purchase the Last Out Notes for legal investment or other purposes, or as to the ability of particular investors to purchase the Last Out Notes under applicable investment restrictions.
 
11.
The Purchaser has consulted with its own legal, regulatory, tax, business, investment, financial and accounting advisors to the extent it has deemed necessary and has made its own investment decision (including decisions regarding the suitability of any transaction pursuant to the Indenture) based upon its own judgment and upon any advice from such advisors as it has deemed necessary and not upon any view expressed by the Issuer, the Insurer, the Trustee, or any of their respective Affiliates.
 
12.
The Purchaser agrees to treat the Last Out Notes as indebtedness for U.S. federal income tax and all applicable state and local income and franchise tax purposes in all tax filings, reports and returns and otherwise, and will not take, or participate in the taking of or permit to be taken, any action that is inconsistent with such tax treatment and tax reporting of the Last Out Notes, unless required by applicable law.
 
B-2

13.
Unless the application of this section 13 has been removed by a change in law, if the Purchaser decides to resell or otherwise transfer such Last Out Notes, then it agrees on its own behalf and on behalf of any investor account for which it is purchasing the Last Out Notes, and each subsequent purchaser of the Last Out Notes by its acceptance thereof, agrees, that it will resell or transfer such Last Out Notes only to the Issuer or an Affiliate, or to a person whom the seller reasonably believes is a Qualified Institutional Buyer acquiring the Last Out Notes for its own account or as a fiduciary or agent for others (which others must also be Qualified Institutional Buyers) to whom notice is given that the resale or other transfer is being made in reliance on Rule 144A of the Securities Act and in accordance with any applicable United States state securities laws or other applicable securities laws of the relevant jurisdiction.
 
14.
The Purchaser understands and agrees that each certificate representing an interest in the Last Out Notes shall include a legend similar to the following (the “Securities Legend”), unless determined otherwise in accordance with applicable law:
 
THE LAST OUT NOTES HAVE NOT BEEN AND WILL NOT BE REGISTERED UNDER THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND THE HOLDERS THEREOF ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE LAST OUT NOTES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND AGREE THAT THE LAST OUT NOTES MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED EXCEPT TO A PERSON WHOM THE HOLDER REASONABLY BELIEVES IS A QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL BUYER WITHIN THE MEANING OF RULE 144A UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT IN A TRANSACTION MEETING THE REQUIREMENTS OF RULE 144A OF THE SECURITIES ACT OR PURSUANT TO ANOTHER EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH ANY APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE OF THE UNITED STATES OR ANY OTHER JURISDICTION, INCLUDING AUSTRALIA. THE OWNERS OF THE LAST OUT NOTES AGREE THAT ANY TRANSFER OF THE LAST OUT NOTES OR ANY INTEREST THEREIN WILL BE MADE IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PROVISIONS OF THE INDENTURE.
 
NEITHER THE LAST OUT NOTES (NOR ANY INTEREST THEREIN) MAY BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED TO ANY AUSTRALIAN PERSON OR ENTITY.
 
ANY PURPORTED PURCHASE OR TRANSFER OF ANY INTEREST IN A LAST OUT NOTE BY A PURCHASER OR TO A TRANSFEREE THAT DOES NOT COMPLY WITH THE FOREGOING SHALL BE NULL AND VOID AB INITIO.
 
15.
Unless the Securities Legend has been removed from the Last Out Notes, the Purchaser agrees to notify each transferee of the Last Out Notes or of any Beneficial Ownership Interest or other interest therein of the deemed representations described herein and that such transferee will be deemed to have agreed to notify its subsequent transferees as to the foregoing.
 
16.
The Purchaser certifies, as provided on the legend set forth on the Last Out Note (the “ERISA Restricted Legend”), as follows:
 
B-3

EITHER PURCHASER (A) IS NOT AN EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLAN OR OTHER PLAN SUBJECT TO TITLE I OF THE EMPLOYEE RETIREMENT INCOME SECURITY ACT OF 1974, AS AMENDED (“ERISA”), SECTION 4975 OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE OF 1986, AS AMENDED (THE “CODE”), OR SIMILAR LAW (EACH, A “PLAN”) AND THAT IT IS NOT ACQUIRING THE LAST OUT NOTES DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY FOR, OR ON BEHALF OF, A PLAN OR ANY ENTITY WHOSE UNDERLYING ASSETS ARE DEEMED TO BE PLAN ASSETS OF SUCH A PLAN; OR PURCHASER’S (B) PURCHASE, OWNERSHIP OR DISPOSITION OF SUCH LAST OUT NOTE WILL NOT CONSTITUTE OR RESULT IN A NON-EXEMPT PROHIBITED TRANSACTION UNDER SECTION 406 OF ERISA OR SECTION 4975 OF THE CODE (OR, IN THE CASE OF A GOVERNMENTAL PLAN, CHURCH PLAN OR FOREIGN PLAN, ANY VIOLATION OF SIMILAR LAW) NOR SUBJECT THE TRUSTEE, THE ISSUER, THE INSURER OR THE PURCHASER OF THE LAST OUT NOTES TO ANY OBLIGATION NOT AFFIRMATIVELY UNDERTAKEN IN WRITING. PURCHASER UNDERSTANDS THAT ANY PURPORTED PURCHASE OR TRANSFER OF ANY INTEREST IN THIS LAST OUT NOTE BY PURCHASER OR TO A TRANSFEREE THAT DOES NOT COMPLY WITH THE FOREGOING SHALL BE NULL AND VOID AB INITIO.
 
17.
The Purchaser acknowledges that the Issuer, and others will rely upon the truth and accuracy of the foregoing acknowledgments, representations and agreements and agrees that, if the Purchaser cease to qualify as a Qualified Institutional Buyer or an Institutional Accredited Investor, it will promptly notify the Issuer. If it is acquiring any Last Out Notes as a fiduciary or agent for one or more investor accounts, it represents that it has sole investment discretion with respect to each such account and that it has full power to make the foregoing acknowledgments, representations and agreements on behalf of each such account.
 
18.
The Purchaser agrees to indemnify the Trustee, the Insurer and the Issuer against any and all liability that may result if any transfer of such Last Out Note is not made by the Purchaser in a manner consistent with the transfer restrictions in the Indenture.
 
19.
Neither the undersigned nor anyone acting on its behalf has (a) offered, pledged, sold, disposed of or otherwise transferred the Last Out Notes, any interest in the Last Out Notes or any other similar security to any Person in any manner; (b) solicited any offer to buy or accept a pledge, disposition or other transfer of the Last Out Notes, any interest in the Last Out Notes or any other similar security from any Person in any manner; (c) otherwise approached or negotiated with respect to the Last Out Notes, any interest in the Last Out Notes or any other similar security with any Person in any manner; (d) made any general solicitation by means of general advertising or in any other manner; or (e) taken any other action, that (in the case of any of the acts described in clauses (a) through (d) above) would constitute a distribution of the Last Out Notes under the Securities Act, would render the disposition of the Last Out Notes a violation of Section 5 of the Securities Act or any state securities law or would require registration or qualification of the Last Out Notes pursuant thereto.
 
20.
The Purchaser recognizes that an investment in the Last Out Notes involves significant risks. The Purchaser understands that there is no established market for the Last Out Notes and that none will develop and, accordingly, that the Purchaser must bear the economic risk of an investment in the Last Out Notes for an indefinite period of time.
 
B-4

21.
The Purchaser agrees that the Purchaser is bound by and will abide by the provisions of the Indenture and the restrictions on transfer of the Last Out Notes and interests therein in the legends on the face of the Last Out Notes. The Purchaser agrees that it will provide to each person to whom it transfers Last Out Notes notice of the restrictions on transfer of the Last Out Notes.
 
22.
The Purchaser acknowledges that any proposed assignee of a beneficial ownership interest in the Last Out Notes will be deemed under the Indenture to have made agreements and representations substantially similar to those set forth above. The Purchaser understands that each of the Last Out Notes will bear a legend restricting transfer of the Last Out Notes.
 
23.
The interpretation of the provisions hereof shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.
 
24.
If the Purchaser is acquiring any Last Out Notes as a fiduciary or agent for one or more investor accounts, the Purchaser represents that it has sole investment discretion with respect to each such account and that it has full power to make on behalf of such account the representations, confirmations, acknowledgments and agreements set forth in this PPM.
 
This Investor Letter will be deemed valid for the institution named on this signature page. If there are additional institutions (e.g., subaccounts or mutual funds) to be covered by this letter, the undersigned will provide a list of such institutions.

6.
Liquidation, Dissolution, Bankruptcy, etc. In any Insolvency Proceeding, the Senior Debt (including any and all payments to Holders of the Senior Notes) shall be paid in full (including interest, premiums, and other amounts accruing to the date of receipt of such payment at the applicable rate whether or not allowed or allowable in any such proceeding, default interest and any applicable premiums, fees or make-whole amounts), pursuant to the terms thereof, before the Holders of the Last Out Notes shall be entitled to receive any payment or distribution (including of any cash and/or any other assets of the Co-Obligors), and the Holders of the Senior Notes shall be entitled to receive directly, for application in payment of such Senior Notes (to the extent necessary to pay all Senior Debt in full after giving effect to any substantially concurrent payment or distribution to the Holders of the Senior Notes), any payment or distribution of any kind or character, whether in cash or other assets, which would otherwise be payable or deliverable upon or with respect to the Last Out Obligations. To the extent any payment of Senior Debt (whether by or on behalf of any Co-Obligors or otherwise) is declared to be a fraudulent preference or otherwise preferential, set aside or required to be paid to a trustee, receiver or other similar Person under any bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar law, then if such payment is recoverable by, or paid over to, such trustee, receiver or other Person, the Senior Debt or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be (and otherwise deemed to be) fully reinstated and outstanding as if such payment had not occurred. The Trustee on behalf of the Holders of the Senior Notes is irrevocably authorized and empowered to make and present for and on behalf of the Holders of the Last Out Notes, such proofs of claim or other motions or pleadings and to demand, receive and collect any and all dividends or other payments and disbursements made thereon in whatever form the same may be paid or issued and to apply the same on account of the Senior Debt in order to enable the Holders of the Senior Notes or the Trustee on behalf of the Holders of the Senior Notes to enforce any and all of its and their rights hereunder.
 
7.
Payments Received by the Trustee, Servicer or Security Trustee. If, prior to Payment in Full, any Holders of any Last Out Notes or any Person on its or their behalf receives any payment from or distribution of assets of the Co-Obligors on account of the Last Out Obligations not expressly permitted by this Agreement, then such Holders or Person shall receive and hold such payment or distribution in trust for the benefit of the Holders of the Senior Notes and, except as otherwise provided in the Debt Documents, shall apply such payment or distribution to the repayment of the Senior Notes.

8.
No Waiver of Subordination Provisions.
 

(a)
No right of the Holders of the Senior Notes (or the Servicer, Security Trustee or Trustee on behalf of the Holders of the Senior Notes) to enforce the subordination as provided in this Agreement and the Trust Indenture shall at any time in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of the Co-Obligors or by any act or failure to act by the Holders of the Senior Notes (or the Servicer, Security Trustee or Trustee on behalf of the Holders of the Senior Notes), or by any non-compliance by the Co-Obligors with any of the agreements or instruments relating to the Last Out Obligation or Senior Debt, regardless of any knowledge thereof which the Holders of the Senior Notes (or the Servicer, Security Trustee or Trustee on behalf of the Holders of the Senior Notes) may have or be otherwise charged with.

9.
No Release. This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect without regard to, and any limitations on the rights related to the Last Out Obligations hereunder shall not be released or otherwise affected or impaired by:

any exercise or non-exercise by any Holder of Senior Notes (or the Servicer, Security Trustee or Trustee on behalf of the Holders of the Senior Notes) of any right, remedy, power or privilege in the Debt Documents to which any such Holder is a party;
 

(b)
any waiver, consent, extension, indulgence or other action, inaction or omission by any Holder of Senior Notes (or the Servicer, Security Trustee or Trustee on behalf of the Holders of the Senior Notes) under or in respect of this Agreement or the Debt Documents;
 

(c)
any default by the Co-Obligors or any other Person under, any limitation on the liability of the Co-Obligors or any other Person on the method or terms of payment under, or any irregularity or other defect in, the Debt Documents;
 

(d)
the failure of any Holder of Senior Notes (or the Servicer, Security Trustee or Trustee on behalf of the Holders of the Senior Notes) to file, pursue, or enforce a claim of any kind;
 

(e)
any defense based upon an election of remedies by any Holder of Senior Notes (or the Servicer, Security Trustee or Trustee on behalf of the Holders of the Senior Notes) which destroys or otherwise impairs the subrogation rights of the Last Out Obligations or the right of the Trustee and/or Servicer and/or Security Trustee on behalf of the Holders of Last Out Notes to proceed against the Co-Obligors or any other Person for reimbursement, or both;

“Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Collateral shall not include the following (“Excluded Property”): (1) any license or contract, in each case if the granting of a security interest in such license or contract is prohibited by or would constitute a default under the agreement governing such license or contract (but (A) only to the extent such prohibition  (I) was not created in contemplation of the security interest granted by the Issuer and the other Co-Obligors under the PDSA and the other Finance Documents and (II) is enforceable under applicable law and (B) other than to the extent that any such term would be rendered ineffective pursuant to Sections 9-406, 9-407, 9-408 or 9-409 (or any other Section) of Article 9 of the Code); provided that upon the termination, lapsing or expiration of any such prohibition, or the waiver of such provision or consent thereto, such license or contract, as applicable, shall automatically be subject to the security interest granted in favor of the Security Trustee and become part of the Collateral, or (2) any equipment subject to a purchase money security interest permitted to be incurred under the PDSA as to which the corresponding purchase money Indebtedness remains outstanding, to the extent that a grant of a security interest or Lien therein would require a consent not obtained or violate or invalidate such purchase money arrangement or create a right of termination in favor of any party thereto (other than the Issuer or any Co-Obligor), after giving effect to the applicable anti-assignment provisions of the Code and other applicable law, or (3) any United States intent-to-use trademark applications to the extent that, and solely during the period in which, the grant of a security interest therein would impair the validity or enforceability of such intent-to-use trademark applications under applicable federal law, provided that upon submission to and acceptance by the federal Patent and Trademark Office of an amendment to allege use, such intent-to-use trademark application shall automatically be subject to the security interest granted in favor of Servicer and become part of the Collateral, or (4) any Excluded Intellectual Property, or (5) any Tooling for so long as such Tooling secures any Tooling Indebtedness as permitted by clause (n) of the definition of Permitted Lien;
 
provided, however, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth above (1) the Excluded Property shall not include any proceeds, products, substitutions or replacements of Excluded Property (unless the proceeds, products, substitutions or replacements would otherwise constitute Excluded Property) and (2) immediately upon the ineffectiveness, lapse or termination of any restriction or condition causing or resulting in such property being Excluded Property, the Collateral shall include, and such Co-Obligor shall be deemed to have granted a security interest in, to and under all such property referred to in above, as if such restriction or condition had never been in effect.”
 
2.         Transaction Documents. The Disbursing Agreement, the other Disbursement Documents, the Indenture and the other Trust Transaction Documents shall be and remain in full force and effect in accordance with their terms and conditions and are hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects. Except as expressly set forth herein, the execution, delivery, and performance of this Amendment shall not operate as an amendment or modification of the Disbursing Agreement or as a waiver of, or as an amendment of, any right, privilege, protection, limitation of liability, immunity, indemnity, power, or remedy of Servicer or Disbursing Agent under the Disbursing Agreement, the other Disbursement Documents, the Indenture or the other Trust Transaction Documents, as in effect prior to the date hereof, whether in respect of any similar transaction or transaction or otherwise.

3.           Fair Market Value.
 
(a)         “VWAP” means, for any date, the price determined by the first of the following clauses that applies: (a) if the Ordinary Shares are then listed or quoted on a trading market, the daily volume weighted average price of the Ordinary Shares for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on the trading market on which the Ordinary Shares are then listed or quoted as reported by Bloomberg (based on a trading day from 9:30 a.m. (New York City time) to 4:02 p.m. (New York City time)) or (b) in all other cases, the fair market value of a share of Common Stock as determined by an independent appraiser selected in good faith by the Holders, the fees and expenses of which shall be paid by the Company. The Company shall provide its calculation of the fair market value per Ordinary Share to the Holders, which shall be equal to the VWAP determined as provided in the preceding sentence, together with reasonable details and supporting documentation with respect to such calculation. Only with respect to the preceding clause (b), within ten (10) Business Days of the receipt of such calculation, the Holders shall have the right to provide notice to the Company of any disagreement regarding the calculation of such fair market value (a “FMV Dispute Notice”), which FMV Dispute Notice shall, to the extent reasonably capable of calculation, include the Holders’ calculation of the fair market value of one Ordinary Share and reasonable supporting documentation regarding the same to the extent available.  Following receipt of any such FMV Dispute Notice by the Company, the Holders and the Company shall negotiate in good faith to reach agreement regarding the fair market value of one Ordinary Share.  If the Company and the Holders are unable to resolve all such disputed items within ten (10) Business Days following the Company’s receipt of the FMV Dispute Notice, then all items that have not been resolved on a mutually agreeable basis shall be submitted to an independent valuation expert (“Designated Valuation Firm”) mutually acceptable to the Company and the Holders for resolution, and such Designated Valuation Firm shall be instructed to issue its determination within ten (10) Business Days after the submission of such dispute thereto; provided, that if the Company and the Holders are unable to agree on a Designated Valuation Firm within fifteen (15) Business Days following the Company’s receipt of the FMV Dispute Notice, the Designated Valuation Firm shall be designated by a majority of the independent members of the board of directors of the Company.  The determination by such Designated Valuation Firm shall be binding on the Company and the Holders.  All costs and expenses relating to the work performed by the Designated Valuation Firm shall be borne by the Holders, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand, based on the inverse of the percentage that the Designated Valuation Firm’s determination bears to the total amount of the total items in dispute as originally submitted to the Designated Valuation Firm, which proportionate allocations shall also be determined by the Designated Valuation Firm at the time it renders its determination on the merits of the matters in dispute.  For example, if the items in dispute totaled US$1,000 and the Designated Valuation Firm awards US$600 in favor of the Company and US$400 in favor of the Holders, then sixty percent (60%) of the costs and expenses relating to the work performed by the Designated Valuation Firm would be borne by the Holders and forty percent (40%) of such costs and expenses would be borne by the Company.  Such fair market value of one Ordinary Share as finally determined pursuant to this Section 3 shall be referred to herein as the “Fair Market Value” for purposes of this Warrant.

(i)          surrendering this Warrant (or an affidavit of loss if such original Warrant has been lost, stolen or destroyed) together with a duly executed copy of the Notice of Exercise attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Notice of Exercise”) to the Company at its address for notices hereunder in accordance with Section 11 marked for attention of the company secretary; and
 
(ii)          paying to the Company the Aggregate Exercise Price in accordance with Section 2(c);
 
provided, that such Notice of Exercise and related surrender of this Warrant may be conditioned and effective upon the happening of certain events, including the consummation of a Monetization Event.
 
(b)         Time of Exercise; Expiration.  Each exercise of this Warrant shall be deemed to have been effected immediately prior to the close of business on the day on which this Warrant is surrendered to the Company as provided in Section 2(a).  At such time, the Person or Persons in whose name or names any Ordinary Shares are to be allotted and issued upon such exercise as provided in Section 2(d) shall be deemed to have been allotted such Ordinary Shares and shall become entitled to all the rights and privileges attaching to such shares with effect from that time.  If the Holders do not exercise this Warrant in the time provided in Section 2(a), the Warrant shall expire and shall be void thereafter.
 
(c)         Payment of the Aggregate Exercise Price.  Payment of the Aggregate Exercise Price shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by the Company, in the amount of such Aggregate Exercise Price.
 
(d)        Delivery of Ordinary Shares and/or New Warrant.  Upon the effectiveness of any exercise of this Warrant in whole or in part, the Company shall promptly at its expense, and in no event later than five (5) Business Days after such exercise:
 

(i)         enter (or cause to be entered) the name of the Holders, or as the Holders (subject to the payment by such Person of any applicable stamp duty or transfer taxes) may direct, in the Register of Members as the holder of the relevant number of Ordinary Shares; and
 
(ii)          issue (or cause to be issued) in the name of, and deliver (or cause to be delivered) (which may be via electronic delivery with physical delivery to promptly follow if so requested by Holders) to, the Holders, or as the Holders (subject to the payment by such Person of any applicable stamp duty or transfer taxes) may direct:
 
 (1)          certificates or evidence of book entries for the Ordinary Shares to which the Holders shall be entitled in connection with such exercise; and
 
 (2)          in case such exercise is in part only, a new Warrant (dated the Original Issue Date) evidencing the rights of the Holders to purchase the unexercised Ordinary Shares as provided for by this Warrant, and such new Warrant shall in all other respects be identical to this Warrant.
 
(e)         Records.  Upon the Holders’ payment of the Aggregate Exercise Price (in accordance with Section 2(c)), the Company shall, as promptly as practicable, update (or cause to be updated) the records of the Company to reflect the Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, in the case of each of clauses (i) and (ii) of Section 2(d), following such exercise of the Warrant.
 
(f)          Winding-Up or Dissolution.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Warrant, if an order is made or a resolution is passed for the winding-up or dissolution, whether voluntary or involuntary, of the Company or if any other dissolution of the Company is to be effected, the Company shall immediately notify the Holders accordingly.  In such circumstances, the Holders shall be entitled, at any time after such order is made or resolution is passed, to exercise this Warrant and to be allotted and issued the relevant number of Ordinary Shares in accordance with this Section 2 and shall be entitled to receive out of the assets of the Company available to the Members such sum, if any, as the Holders are entitled receive as Members of the Company.
 

3.            Fair Market Value.
 
(a)          “VWAP” means, for any date, the price determined by the first of the following clauses that applies: (a) if the Ordinary Shares are then listed or quoted on a trading market, the daily volume weighted average price of the Ordinary Shares for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on the trading market on which the Ordinary Shares are then listed or quoted as reported by Bloomberg (based on a trading day from 9:30 a.m. (New York City time) to 4:02 p.m. (New York City time)) or (b) in all other cases, the fair market value of a share of Common Stock as determined by an independent appraiser selected in good faith by the Holders, the fees and expenses of which shall be paid by the Company. The Company shall provide its calculation of the fair market value per Ordinary Share to the Holders, which shall be equal to the VWAP determined as provided in the preceding sentence, together with reasonable details and supporting documentation with respect to such calculation.  Only with respect to the preceding clause (b), within ten (10) Business Days of the receipt of such calculation, the Holders shall have the right to provide notice to the Company of any disagreement regarding the calculation of such fair market value (a “FMV Dispute Notice”), which FMV Dispute Notice shall, to the extent reasonably capable of calculation, include the Holders’ calculation of the fair market value of one Ordinary Share and reasonable supporting documentation regarding the same to the extent available.  Following receipt of any such FMV Dispute Notice by the Company, the Holders and the Company shall negotiate in good faith to reach agreement regarding the fair market value of one Ordinary Share.  If the Company and the Holders are unable to resolve all such disputed items within ten (10) Business Days following the Company’s receipt of the FMV Dispute Notice, then all items that have not been resolved on a mutually agreeable basis shall be submitted to an independent valuation expert (“Designated Valuation Firm”) mutually acceptable to the Company and the Holders for resolution, and such Designated Valuation Firm shall be instructed to issue its determination within ten (10) Business Days after the submission of such dispute thereto; provided, that if the Company and the Holders are unable to agree on a Designated Valuation Firm within fifteen (15) Business Days following the Company’s receipt of the FMV Dispute Notice, the Designated Valuation Firm shall be designated by a majority of the independent members of the board of directors of the Company.  The determination by such Designated Valuation Firm shall be binding on the Company and the Holders.  All costs and expenses relating to the work performed by the Designated Valuation Firm shall be borne by the Holders, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand, based on the inverse of the percentage that the Designated Valuation Firm’s determination bears to the total amount of the total items in dispute as originally submitted to the Designated Valuation Firm, which proportionate allocations shall also be determined by the Designated Valuation Firm at the time it renders its determination on the merits of the matters in dispute.  For example, if the items in dispute totaled US$1,000 and the Designated Valuation Firm awards US$600 in favor of the Company and US$400 in favor of the Holders, then sixty percent (60%) of the costs and expenses relating to the work performed by the Designated Valuation Firm would be borne by the Holders and forty percent (40%) of such costs and expenses would be borne by the Company.  Such fair market value of one Ordinary Share as finally determined pursuant to this Section 3 shall be referred to herein as the “Fair Market Value” for purposes of this Warrant.
 
4.           Representations and Warranties of the Company.  In connection with the transactions provided for herein, the Company hereby represents and warrants to the Holders that:
 
(a)         Organization, Good Standing, and Qualification.  The Company is a public limited company duly incorporated and validly existing under the laws of Ireland with registered number 607450 and has all requisite limited company power and authority to carry on its business as now conducted.  The Company is duly qualified, licensed or registered as a foreign entity to transact business, and is in good standing, under the laws of each jurisdiction where the character or location of the properties or assets owned, leased or operated by it requires such qualification, licensing or registration, except where the failure of such qualification, licensing or registration would not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the business or properties of the Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole.
 
(b)          Authorization.  Except as may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights and to general principles of equity, all limited company action has been taken on the part of the Company, its officers, directors, and members necessary for the authorization, execution and delivery of this Warrant.  This Warrant has been duly and validly executed and delivered by the Company and constitutes the binding obligation of the Company, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights and to general principles of equity.  The Company has authorized sufficient Ordinary Shares to allow for the exercise of this Warrant.
 
(c)          Compliance with Other Instruments.  The authorization, execution and delivery of this Warrant will not constitute or result in a material default or violation of any law or regulation applicable to the Company or any material term or provision of the Company Articles or any material agreement or instrument by which it is bound or to which its properties or assets are subject.
 

(d)          Valid Issuance of Ordinary Shares.  The Ordinary Shares, when issued, sold, and delivered in accordance with the terms of this Warrant for the consideration expressed herein, will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and, based in part upon the representations and warranties of the Holders in this Warrant and the Holders’ compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws, will be issued in compliance with all applicable federal and state securities laws.
 
(e)          Capitalization.  As of the Original Issue Date and without giving effect to the issuance of this Warrant, the authorized share capital of the Company was (a) US$100,000,000 divided into 800,000,000,000 Ordinary Shares, of which 1,875,194 were issued and outstanding, 200,000,000,000 preferred shares with a nominal value of US$0.0001 each, of which none were issued and outstanding, and 350 Class A preferred shares of US$0.0001 each, of which none were issued and outstanding (save for those contracted to be allotted and issued pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement), and (b) €25,000 divided into 25,000 deferred ordinary shares with a nominal value of €1.00 each.  No Person has any right of first refusal, preemptive right, right of participation, or any similar right with respect to the issuance of this Warrant or the issuance of Ordinary Shares upon exercise of the Warrant.  Except as set forth on Schedule 3.1(e), there are no outstanding options, warrants, scrip rights to subscribe to, calls or commitments of any character whatsoever relating to, or securities, rights or obligations convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for, or giving any Person any right to subscribe for or acquire, any Ordinary Shares or the capital stock of any subsidiary of the Company, or contracts, commitments, understandings or arrangements by which the Company or any subsidiary of the Company is or may become bound to issue additional Ordinary Shares or Equity Interests of any subsidiary of the Company.  The issuance and sale of this Warrant and the Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrant will not obligate the Company or any subsidiary of the Company to issue Ordinary Shares or other securities to any Person (other than the Holders).  There are no outstanding securities or instruments of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company with any provision that adjusts the exercise, conversion, exchange or reset price of such security or instrument upon an issuance of securities by the Company or any subsidiary of the Company.  There are no outstanding securities or instruments of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company that contain any redemption or similar provisions, and there are no contracts, commitments, understandings or arrangements by which the Company or any subsidiary of the Company is or may become bound to redeem a security of the Company or such subsidiary.  All of the issued and outstanding shares in the capital of the Company are duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, have been issued in compliance with all federal and state securities laws, and none of such issued and outstanding shares was issued in violation of any preemptive rights or similar rights to subscribe for or purchase securities.  There are no stockholders agreements, voting agreements or other similar agreements with respect to the Company’s capital stock to which the Company is a party (other than any such agreement to which the Holders are a party) or, to the knowledge of the Company, between or among any of the Company’s shareholders.
 
5.          Representations and Warranties of the Holders.  In connection with the transactions provided for herein, the Holders hereby represent and warrant to the Company that:
 
(a)          Authorization.  The Holders are entities formed, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of their respective formation, and this Warrant has been duly and validly executed and delivered by the Holders and constitutes the binding obligation of the Holders, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights and to general principles of equity.
 
(b)         Purchase for Own Account.  This Warrant and the Ordinary Shares to be acquired upon exercise of this Warrant by the Holders are being acquired for the Holders’ own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the public resale or distribution within the meaning of the Securities Act in violation of the Securities Act or other applicable securities laws.  The Holders also represent that the Holders have not been formed for the specific purpose to permit the Company to avoid classification as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended from time to time (“Investment Company Act”).
 

(c)          Securities Act. The Holders understand that this Warrant and the Ordinary Shares, at the time of issuance, will not be registered under the Securities Act on the ground that the transaction provided for in this Warrant and the issuance of Ordinary Shares hereunder is exempt from registration under the Securities Act. The Holders are aware that only the Company can take action to register this Warrant and Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant under the Securities Act and that the Company is under no such obligation, and does not propose or intend to attempt, to do so (other than as contemplated under the Registration Rights Agreement).
 
(d)         Investment Experience.  The Holders have such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that the Holders are capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in this Warrant and the Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise thereon and of making an informed investment decision (including through the Holders’ acquisition of information about the Company’s business affairs and financial condition) and understands that (i) an investment in this Warrant and Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise thereof is speculative and (ii) there are substantial restrictions on the transferability of this Warrant and such Ordinary Shares.
 
(e)          Accredited Investor; U.S. Person.  Each of the Holders is an “Accredited Investor” (as defined in the regulations promulgated under the Securities Act as amended by Section 413(a) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act) and is not a non-U.S. Person for purposes of the U.S. securities laws.
 
(f)          Restrictions.  The Holders understand that this Warrant and the securities issuable upon exercise hereof may not be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of without registration under the Securities Act or an exemption therefrom, and that in the absence of an effective registration statement covering the Warrant and Ordinary Shares or an available exemption from registration under the Securities Act, the Warrant and Ordinary Shares must be held indefinitely.
 
6.            Covenants.
 
(a)           Company Notices.
 
(i)          Notices of Distribution.  In the event of any authorization or decision by the Company or its board of directors to distribute property or assets to the Members, the Company shall provide prior written notice to the Holders at least ten (10) days prior to such distribution or, if earlier, the date on which the Holders must be Members in order to receive such a distribution, specifying the date on which any such distribution is to be made or, if earlier, the date on which the Holders must be Members in order to receive such a distribution.
 
(ii)         Other Notices.  The Company shall provide no less than fifteen (15) days’ prior written notice to the Holders (or as much notice as is reasonably practicable in connection therewith in the case of subsection (A) and (D)) in the event of: (A) any restructuring, reclassification, capital reorganization or material change in the Equity Interests of the Company; (B) any Monetization Event; (C) any material refinancing; (D) any distribution to holders of Ordinary Shares; (E) any issuance or sale by the Company of any Ordinary Shares or Equity Interests; (F) any amendments, waivers or modifications to the Company Articles; (G) any Transfers by Members of the Company that afford other holders of Ordinary Shares of the Company (or the Holders, if they were to exercise this Warrant) with any rights to purchase the Equity Interests so Transferred or participate in such Transfer of Equity Interests; and (H) any voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding-up of the Company.  Such notice shall set forth the material terms and conditions related to the foregoing, as applicable, to the extent then known and applicable to the rights of the Holders, and the contemplated date of the closing or other consummation thereof.
 

(b)          Reservation of Ordinary Shares.  At all times while this Warrant remains exercisable pursuant to Section 2(a), the Company shall have authorized, reserved and kept available solely for the purpose of issuance upon exercise of this Warrant, the maximum number of Ordinary Shares issuable upon the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant.  The Company shall take all such actions as may be reasonably necessary or appropriate to ensure that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of Ordinary Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant.  The Company shall not take any action that would cause the number of authorized but unissued Ordinary Shares to be less than the number of Ordinary Shares required to be reserved hereunder for issuance upon exercise of this Warrant.
 
(c)          Compliance with Law.  The Company shall take all such actions as may be reasonably necessary or appropriate to ensure that Ordinary Shares issued upon exercise of this Warrant are issued without violation by the Company of any applicable laws (assuming the accuracy of the Holders’ representations herein).
 
(d)          Payment of Expenses.  Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the Company shall pay all expenses in connection with, and all taxes (including stamp duty) and other governmental charges that may be imposed with respect to, the issuance of this Warrant, any further warrants issued pursuant to this Warrant and the issuance or delivery of Ordinary Shares issued upon exercise of this Warrant, together with any applicable withholding payable upon the issuance of this Warrant, any such further warrants and the issuance or delivery of such Ordinary Shares to the Holders or any other Person; provided, that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed with respect to the issuance or delivery of the Ordinary Shares issued upon exercise of the Warrant to any Person other than the Holders, and no such issuance or delivery shall be made unless and until the Person requesting such issuance has paid to the Company the amount of any such tax, or has established to the satisfaction of the Company that such tax has been paid.
 
(e)        Holder Consent.  The Company shall obtain the written consent of the Holders prior to: (i) for so long as the Holders collectively beneficially own equal to or greater than 10.0% of the aggregate number of issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares calculated on a Fully-Diluted Basis (assuming for purposes of determining the numerator and the denominator in such calculation that any unvested portion of the Vested Existing Warrant Amount has been vested), issuing Ordinary Shares in the Company (other than pursuant to the exercise of a Company Warrant or the Equity Incentive Plan) at a price per share less than the Maximum Discount; provided, however, that the Holders shall be deemed to have waived their consent rights under this clause (i) if prior to such time the investment committee of the Holders has failed to approve a subscription for Subsequent Acquired Interests at a time when all other conditions in Article 7 of the Securities Purchase Agreement relating to such Subsequent Closing have been satisfied; (ii) for so long as the Holders collectively beneficially own equal to or greater than 10.0% of the aggregate number of issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares calculated on a Fully-Diluted Basis (assuming for purposes of determining the numerator and the denominator in such calculation that any unvested portion of the Vested Existing Warrant Amount has been vested), issuing Ordinary Shares in the Company (other than pursuant to the exercise of a Company Warrant) if after giving effect to such issuance the Holders would collectively beneficially own less than 10.0% of the aggregate number of issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares, in each case, calculated on a Fully-Diluted Basis (assuming for purposes of determining the numerator and the denominator in such calculation that any unvested portion of the Vested Existing Warrant Amount has been vested) (a “Dilutive Issuance”); provided, however, that the Holders shall be deemed to have waived their consent rights under this clause (ii) with respect to any future Dilutive Issuance if (x) the Holders have previously provided their written consent to a Dilutive Issuance pursuant to this clause (ii) or (y) prior to such time the investment committee of the Holders has failed to approve a subscription for Subsequent Acquired Interests at a time when all other conditions in Article 7 of the Securities Purchase Agreement relating to such Subsequent Closing have been satisfied; or (iii) amending the Company Articles in a manner that alters any provisions of the Company Articles that would be materially adverse to the Holders in their capacity as holders of this Warrant or as Members.  For purposes of the foregoing, beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder.
 

7.            Adjustment to Number of Ordinary Shares and Exercise Price.  In order to prevent dilution of the rights granted under this Warrant, the Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as provided in this Section 7, and the number of Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as provided in this Section 7; provided, however, if more than one subsection of this Section 7 is applicable to a single event, the subsection shall be applied that produces the largest adjustment and no single event shall cause an adjustment under more than one subsection of this Section 7 so as to result in duplication.

(a)         Subdivision or Combination of Ordinary Shares.  If the Company at any time while this Warrant remains outstanding and unexpired shall subdivide or combine its Equity Interests, the Exercise Price shall be proportionately decreased in the case of a subdivision or increased in the case of a combination and the number of Ordinary Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable shall be correspondingly adjusted.

(b)       Reclassification, Reorganization and Consolidation.  In case of any reclassification, capital reorganization or change in the Equity Interests of the Company (other than as a result of a subdivision, combination provided for in Section 7(a) above or an in-kind distribution provided for in Section 7(c) below), then, as a condition of such reclassification, reorganization or change, lawful provision shall be made, and duly executed documents evidencing the same from the Company or its successor shall be delivered to the Holders, so that the Holders shall have the right at any time prior to the expiration of this Warrant to purchase, at a total price equal to that payable upon the exercise of this Warrant, the kind and amount of Equity Interests and other securities or property receivable in connection with such reclassification, reorganization or change by a holder of a proportionate number and type of securities as were purchasable as Ordinary Shares by the Holders immediately prior to such reclassification, reorganization or change.  In any such case appropriate provisions shall be made with respect to the rights and interest of the Holders so that the provisions hereof shall thereafter be applicable with respect to any Equity Interests or other securities or property deliverable upon exercise hereof, and appropriate adjustments shall be made to the Exercise Price per Ordinary Share payable hereunder; provided, that the aggregate Exercise Price shall remain the same (subject to adjustment in accordance with this Section 7).

(c)          Distributions of Ordinary Shares or Other Securities or Property.  If at any time while this Warrant remains outstanding and unexpired, the holders of the Equity Interests as to which purchase rights under this Warrant exist at the time shall have received, or, on or after the date fixed for the determination of eligible Members, shall have become entitled to receive, without payment therefor, other or additional Equity Interests or other property (other than cash) of the Company by way of distribution, then and in each case, this Warrant shall represent the right to acquire, in addition to the number of Ordinary Shares receivable upon exercise of this Warrant, and without payment of any additional consideration therefor, the amount of such other or additional Equity Interests or other property (other than cash) of the Company that the Holders would hold on the date of such exercise had they been the holder of record of the Ordinary Shares receivable upon exercise of this Warrant on the Original Issue Date and had thereafter, during the period from the Original Issue Date to and including the date of such exercise, retained such Ordinary Shares and/or all other additional Equity Interests available by it as aforesaid during such period, giving effect to all adjustments called for during such period by the provisions of this Section 7.
 
(d)          Fractional Shares.  No fractional Ordinary Shares or scrip representing fractional Ordinary Shares will be issued in connection with any exercise hereunder.  In lieu of any fractional Ordinary Shares to which the Holders would otherwise be entitled, the number of Ordinary Shares to be issued upon exercise of this Warrant shall be rounded down to the nearest whole Ordinary Share.
 

(e)        Maximum Percentage.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Holders shall not be entitled to exercise this Warrant to the extent that such exercise would result in the Holders together with any other “attribution parties” collectively beneficially owning in the aggregate in excess of 4.99% (the “Maximum Percentage”) of the number of Ordinary Shares in issue and outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise; provided, however, that (i) the Maximum Percentage shall automatically increase to 9.99% if, at the time of such exercise, the Holders, together with any other “attribution parties,” file any Securities and Exchange Commission reports required as a result of such Holders and such other “attribution parties” collectively beneficially owning in the aggregate in excess of 4.99% of the number of Ordinary Shares in issue and outstanding and (ii) at any time, upon not less than 61 days written notice to the Company, the Holders may increase or decrease the Maximum Percentage to any other percentage.  For purposes of this Section 7(e), “attribution parties” means, the Holders, their respective affiliates and any other persons whose beneficial ownership of Ordinary Shares would be aggregated with the Holders’ for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
 
8.            Transfer of Warrant.
 
(a)         Subject to the transfer conditions referred to in the legend endorsed hereon and the other applicable terms and conditions of this Warrant, until the material breach by the Company of this Warrant or the Company Articles (the “Warrant Holder Period”), the Holders shall not Transfer this Warrant except to their respective Affiliates, any Related Fund or holder of Equity Interests of the Holders.  Upon and following the expiration of the Warrant Holder Period, the Holders may Transfer this Warrant to any Person.  Any Transfer pursuant to this Section 8 shall be implemented by delivering (by email or otherwise) this Warrant to the Company with a duly executed and delivered instrument of Transfer, together with evidence of payment of any relevant stamp duty or transfer taxes by the Transferee.  Upon such surrender of the Warrant and subject to the payment of any relevant stamp duty or transfer taxes by the Transferee, the Company shall execute and deliver any new Warrant(s) in the names of the Transferor and permitted Transferees, as applicable, and in accordance with the denominations specified in such instrument of Transfer, and this Warrant shall automatically be cancelled, and the Company shall register the permitted Transferees, and the permitted Transferees shall be deemed to have become, and shall be treated for all purposes as, the holders of record of the new Warrant(s) immediately upon issuance of such new Warrant(s) to such permitted Transferees.  Any Transfer in violation of this Section 8 shall be void ab initio.
 
(b)         The Holders understand that this Warrant, and any securities issued in respect hereof or exchange herefor, will bear, for so long as is required by applicable securities laws, a legend in substantially the form of subsection (i) and may bear the legends stated in subsection (ii):
 
(i)      “THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED, ASSIGNED, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR PURSUANT TO RULE 144 OR AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER SUCH ACT.”
 
(ii)          Any legend required by the securities laws of any state to the extent such laws are applicable to the securities represented by the certificate or other document so legended.
 

(c)          Certificates or book entries evidencing title to this Warrant and any securities issued in respect hereof or exchange herefor that cease to be restricted pursuant to applicable securities laws shall not contain any legend (including the legends set forth in Section 8(b)) and, promptly following the date on which such securities cease to be restricted pursuant to applicable securities laws, and following the delivery by the Holders and the Holders’ broker(s) to the Company, its legal counsel and the Company’s transfer agent of customary representations and other documentation (including, for the avoidance of doubt, customary certificates and representation letters, but not including any notarized or medallion guaranteed documents) and other representations and documentation as required by law or regulation evidencing that the applicable securities have ceased to be restricted pursuant to applicable securities laws and that the removal of such legend may be effected under the Securities Act, the Company shall cause (i) its legal counsel to issue a customary legal opinion to the Company’s transfer agent to effect the removal of the applicable legends on such securities and (ii) the Company’s transfer agent to deliver to the Holders such securities that are free from all restrictive and other legends by crediting the account of the Holders’ broker with the Depository Trust Company system as directed by the Holders.
 
9.           Replacement on Loss.  In the event that the Holders notify the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant, then upon delivery of an indemnity bond or lost warrant affidavit sufficient in the reasonable determination of the Company to protect the Company from any loss that it may suffer if the Warrant is replaced and, in case of mutilation, upon surrender of such Warrant for cancellation to the Company, the Company shall execute and deliver to the Holders, in lieu hereof, a new Warrant of like tenor and exercisable for an equivalent number of Ordinary Shares as the Warrant so lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed and the replaced Warrant shall automatically be cancelled; provided, that, in the case of mutilation, no indemnity bond or lost warrant affidavit shall be required if this Warrant in identifiable form is surrendered to the Company for cancellation.
 
10.        Warrant Register.  The Company shall keep and properly maintain at its executive offices records of the registration of this Warrant and any permitted and duly made transfers or exercises thereof.  The Company may deem and treat the Person in whose name this Warrant is registered in such register as the holder thereof for all purposes, and the Company shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary, except any assignment, division or other transfer of the Warrant effected in accordance with the provisions of this Warrant.
 
11.          Notices.  All notices, requests, consents, claims, demands, waivers and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been given: (a) when delivered by hand (with written confirmation of receipt); (b) when received by the addressee if sent by a nationally recognized overnight courier (with all fees prepaid and receipt requested); (c) on the date sent by e-mail, which e-mail shall include a subject line referencing the subject of the notice, request, consent, claim, demand, waiver or other communication contained therein or attached thereto, if sent (with no auto-generated undeliverable reply message sent) prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time on a Business Day, and on the next Business Day if sent (with confirmation of transmission) on a day other than a Business Day or after 5:00 p.m., New York City time on a Business Day; or (d) on the third day after the date mailed, by certified or registered mail (with return receipt requested and postage prepaid).  Such communications must be sent to the respective parties hereto at the addresses indicated below (or at such other address for any party hereto as shall be specified in a notice given in accordance with this Section 11).

3.            Fair Market Value.
 
(a)          “VWAP” means, for any date, the price determined by the first of the following clauses that applies: (a) if the Ordinary Shares are then listed or quoted on a trading market, the daily volume weighted average price of the Ordinary Shares for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on the trading market on which the Ordinary Shares are then listed or quoted as reported by Bloomberg (based on a trading day from 9:30 a.m. (New York City time) to 4:02 p.m. (New York City time)) or (b) in all other cases, the fair market value of a share of Common Stock as determined by an independent appraiser selected in good faith by the Holders, the fees and expenses of which shall be paid by the Company. The Company shall provide its calculation of the fair market value per Ordinary Share to the Holders, which shall be equal to the VWAP determined as provided in the preceding sentence, together with reasonable details and supporting documentation with respect to such calculation. Only with respect to the preceding clause (b), within ten (10) Business Days of the receipt of such calculation, the Holders shall have the right to provide notice to the Company of any disagreement regarding the calculation of such fair market value (a “FMV Dispute Notice”), which FMV Dispute Notice shall, to the extent reasonably capable of calculation, include the Holders’ calculation of the fair market value of one Ordinary Share and reasonable supporting documentation regarding the same to the extent available. Following receipt of any such FMV Dispute Notice by the Company, the Holders and the Company shall negotiate in good faith to reach agreement regarding the fair market value of one Ordinary Share. If the Company and the Holders are unable to resolve all such disputed items within ten (10) Business Days following the Company’s receipt of the FMV Dispute Notice, then all items that have not been resolved on a mutually agreeable basis shall be submitted to an independent valuation expert (“Designated Valuation Firm”) mutually acceptable to the Company and the Holders for resolution, and such Designated Valuation Firm shall be instructed to issue its determination within ten (10) Business Days after the submission of such dispute thereto; provided, that if the Company and the Holders are unable to agree on a Designated Valuation Firm within fifteen (15) Business Days following the Company’s receipt of the FMV Dispute Notice, the Designated Valuation Firm shall be designated by a majority of the independent members of the board of directors of the Company. The determination by such Designated Valuation Firm shall be binding on the Company and the Holders. All costs and expenses relating to the work performed by the Designated Valuation Firm shall be borne by the Holders, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand, based on the inverse of the percentage that the Designated Valuation Firm’s determination bears to the total amount of the total items in dispute as originally submitted to the Designated Valuation Firm, which proportionate allocations shall also be determined by the Designated Valuation Firm at the time it renders its determination on the merits of the matters in dispute. For example, if the items in dispute totaled US$1,000 and the Designated Valuation Firm awards US$600 in favor of the Company and US$400 in favor of the Holders, then sixty percent (60%) of the costs and expenses relating to the work performed by the Designated Valuation Firm would be borne by the Holders and forty percent (40%) of such costs and expenses would be borne by the Company. Such fair market value of one Ordinary Share as finally determined pursuant to this Section 3 shall be referred to herein as the “Fair Market Value” for purposes of this Warrant.

Except as may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights and to general principles of equity, all limited company action has been taken on the part of the Company, its officers, directors, and members necessary for the authorization, execution and delivery of this Warrant. This Warrant has been duly and validly executed and delivered by the Company and constitutes the binding obligation of the Company, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights and to general principles of equity. The Company has authorized sufficient Ordinary Shares to allow for the exercise of this Warrant.
 
(c)          Compliance with Other Instruments. The authorization, execution and delivery of this Warrant will not constitute or result in a material default or violation of any law or regulation applicable to the Company or any material term or provision of the Company Articles or any material agreement or instrument by which it is bound or to which its properties or assets are subject.

The issuance and sale of this Warrant and the Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrant will not obligate the Company or any subsidiary of the Company to issue Ordinary Shares or other securities to any Person (other than the Holders). There are no outstanding securities or instruments of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company with any provision that adjusts the exercise, conversion, exchange or reset price of such security or instrument upon an issuance of securities by the Company or any subsidiary of the Company. There are no outstanding securities or instruments of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company that contain any redemption or similar provisions, and there are no contracts, commitments, understandings or arrangements by which the Company or any subsidiary of the Company is or may become bound to redeem a security of the Company or such subsidiary.

(b)          Purchase for Own Account.

The Holders also represent that the Holders have not been formed for the specific purpose to permit the Company to avoid classification as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended from time to time (“Investment Company Act”).
 
8

(c)          Securities Act. The Holders understand that this Warrant and the Ordinary Shares, at the time of issuance, will not be registered under the Securities Act on the ground that the transaction provided for in this Warrant and the issuance of Ordinary Shares hereunder is exempt from registration under the Securities Act. The Holders are aware that only the Company can take action to register this Warrant and Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant under the Securities Act and that the Company is under no such obligation, and does not propose or intend to attempt, to do so (other than as contemplated under the Registration Rights Agreement).
 
(d)         Investment Experience. The Holders have such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that the Holders are capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in this Warrant and the Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise thereon and of making an informed investment decision (including through the Holders’ acquisition of information about the Company’s business affairs and financial condition) and understands that (i) an investment in this Warrant and Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise thereof is speculative and (ii) there are substantial restrictions on the transferability of this Warrant and such Ordinary Shares.
 
(e)          Accredited Investor; U.S. Person. Each of the Holders is an “Accredited Investor” (as defined in the regulations promulgated under the Securities Act as amended by Section 413(a) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act) and is not a non-U.S. Person for purposes of the U.S. securities laws.
 
(f)          Restrictions. The Holders understand that this Warrant and the securities issuable upon exercise hereof may not be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of without registration under the Securities Act or an exemption therefrom, and that in the absence of an effective registration statement covering the Warrant and Ordinary Shares or an available exemption from registration under the Securities Act, the Warrant and Ordinary Shares must be held indefinitely.
 
6.            Covenants.
 
(a)           Company Notices.
 
(i)          Notices of Distribution.

(ii)         Other Notices. The Company shall provide no less than fifteen (15) days’ prior written notice to the Holders (or as much notice as is reasonably practicable in connection therewith in the case of subsection (A) and (D)) in the event of: (A) any restructuring, reclassification, capital reorganization or material change in the Equity Interests of the Company; (B) any Monetization Event; (C) any material refinancing; (D) any distribution to holders of Ordinary Shares; (E) any issuance or sale by the Company of any Ordinary Shares or Equity Interests; (F) any amendments, waivers or modifications to the Company Articles; (G) any Transfers by Members of the Company that afford other holders of Ordinary Shares of the Company (or the Holders, if they were to exercise this Warrant) with any rights to purchase the Equity Interests so Transferred or participate in such Transfer of Equity Interests; and (H) any voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding-up of the Company. Such notice shall set forth the material terms and conditions related to the foregoing, as applicable, to the extent then known and applicable to the rights of the Holders, and the contemplated date of the closing or other consummation thereof.

(b)          Reservation of Ordinary Shares. At all times while this Warrant remains exercisable pursuant to Section 2(a), the Company shall have authorized, reserved and kept available solely for the purpose of issuance upon exercise of this Warrant, the maximum number of Ordinary Shares issuable upon the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant. The Company shall take all such actions as may be reasonably necessary or appropriate to ensure that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of Ordinary Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant. The Company shall not take any action that would cause the number of authorized but unissued Ordinary Shares to be less than the number of Ordinary Shares required to be reserved hereunder for issuance upon exercise of this Warrant.
 
(c)          Compliance with Law. The Company shall take all such actions as may be reasonably necessary or appropriate to ensure that Ordinary Shares issued upon exercise of this Warrant are issued without violation by the Company of any applicable laws (assuming the accuracy of the Holders’ representations herein).

Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the Company shall pay all reasonable expenses in connection with, and all taxes (including stamp duty) and other governmental charges that may be imposed with respect to, the issuance of this Warrant, any further warrants issued pursuant to this Warrant and the issuance or delivery of Ordinary Shares issued upon exercise of this Warrant, together with any applicable withholding payable upon the issuance of this Warrant, any such further warrants and the issuance or delivery of such Ordinary Shares to the Holders or any other Person; provided, that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed with respect to the issuance or delivery of the Ordinary Shares issued upon exercise of the Warrant to any Person other than the Holders, and no such issuance or delivery shall be made unless and until the Person requesting such issuance has paid to the Company the amount of any such tax, or has established to the satisfaction of the Company that such tax has been paid.
 
(e)        Holder Consent. The Company shall obtain the written consent of the Holders prior to: (i) for so long as the Holders collectively beneficially own equal to or greater than 10.0% of the aggregate number of issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares calculated on a Fully-Diluted Basis (assuming for purposes of determining the numerator and the denominator in such calculation that any unvested portion of the Vested Existing Warrant Amount has been vested), issuing Ordinary Shares in the Company (other than pursuant to the exercise of a Company Warrant or the Equity Incentive Plan) at a price per share less than the Maximum Discount; provided, however, that the Holders shall be deemed to have waived their consent rights under this clause (i) if prior to such time the investment committee of the Holders has failed to approve a subscription for Subsequent Acquired Interests at a time when all other conditions in Article 7 of the Securities Purchase Agreement relating to such Subsequent Closing have been satisfied; (ii) for so long as the Holders collectively beneficially own equal to or greater than 10.0% of the aggregate number of issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares calculated on a Fully-Diluted Basis (assuming for purposes of determining the numerator and the denominator in such calculation that any unvested portion of the Vested Existing Warrant Amount has been vested), issuing Ordinary Shares in the Company (other than pursuant to the exercise of a Company Warrant) if after giving effect to such issuance the Holders would collectively beneficially own less than 10.0% of the aggregate number of issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares, in each case, calculated on a Fully-Diluted Basis (assuming for purposes of determining the numerator and the denominator in such calculation that any unvested portion of the Vested Existing Warrant Amount has been vested) (a “Dilutive Issuance”); provided, however, that the Holders shall be deemed to have waived their consent rights under this clause (ii) with respect to any future Dilutive Issuance if (x) the Holders have previously provided their written consent to a Dilutive Issuance pursuant to this clause (ii) or (y) prior to such time the investment committee of the Holders has failed to approve a subscription for Subsequent Acquired Interests at a time when all other conditions in Article 7 of the Securities Purchase Agreement relating to such Subsequent Closing have been satisfied; or (iii) amending the Company Articles in a manner that alters any provisions of the Company Articles that would be materially adverse to the Holders in their capacity as holders of this Warrant or as Members. For purposes of the foregoing, beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder.

7.           Adjustment to Number of Ordinary Shares and Exercise Price. In order to prevent dilution of the rights granted under this Warrant, the Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as provided in this Section 7, and the number of Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as provided in this Section 7; provided, however, if more than one subsection of this Section 7 is applicable to a single event, the subsection shall be applied that produces the largest adjustment and no single event shall cause an adjustment under more than one subsection of this Section 7 so as to result in duplication.
 
(a)          Subdivision or Combination of Ordinary Shares. If the Company at any time while this Warrant remains outstanding and unexpired shall subdivide or combine its Equity Interests, the Exercise Price shall be proportionately decreased in the case of a subdivision or increased in the case of a combination and the number of Ordinary Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable shall be correspondingly adjusted.
 
(b)        Reclassification, Reorganization and Consolidation. In case of any reclassification, capital reorganization or change in the Equity Interests of the Company (other than as a result of a subdivision, combination provided for in Section 7(a) above or an in-kind distribution provided for in Section 7(c) below), then, as a condition of such reclassification, reorganization or change, lawful provision shall be made, and duly executed documents evidencing the same from the Company or its successor shall be delivered to the Holders, so that the Holders shall have the right at any time prior to the expiration of this Warrant to purchase, at a total price equal to that payable upon the exercise of this Warrant, the kind and amount of Equity Interests and other securities or property receivable in connection with such reclassification, reorganization or change by a holder of a proportionate number and type of securities as were purchasable as Ordinary Shares by the Holders immediately prior to such reclassification, reorganization or change. In any such case appropriate provisions shall be made with respect to the rights and interest of the Holders so that the provisions hereof shall thereafter be applicable with respect to any Equity Interests or other securities or property deliverable upon exercise hereof, and appropriate adjustments shall be made to the Exercise Price per Ordinary Share payable hereunder; provided, that the aggregate Exercise Price shall remain the same (subject to adjustment in accordance with this Section 7).
 
(c)          Distributions of Ordinary Shares or Other Securities or Property. If at any time while this Warrant remains outstanding and unexpired, the holders of the Equity Interests as to which purchase rights under this Warrant exist at the time shall have received, or, on or after the date fixed for the determination of eligible Members, shall have become entitled to receive, without payment therefor, other or additional Equity Interests or other property (other than cash) of the Company by way of distribution, then and in each case, this Warrant shall represent the right to acquire, in addition to the number of Ordinary Shares receivable upon exercise of this Warrant, and without payment of any additional consideration therefor, the amount of such other or additional Equity Interests or other property (other than cash) of the Company that the Holders would hold on the date of such exercise had they been the holder of record of the Ordinary Shares receivable upon exercise of this Warrant on the Original Issue Date and had thereafter, during the period from the Original Issue Date to and including the date of such exercise, retained such Ordinary Shares and/or all other additional Equity Interests available by it as aforesaid during such period, giving effect to all adjustments called for during such period by the provisions of this Section 7.
 
11

(d)          Fractional Shares. No fractional Ordinary Shares or scrip representing fractional Ordinary Shares will be issued in connection with any exercise hereunder. In lieu of any fractional Ordinary Shares to which the Holders would otherwise be entitled, the number of Ordinary Shares to be issued upon exercise of this Warrant shall be rounded down to the nearest whole Ordinary Share.
 
(e)        Maximum Percentage. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Holders shall not be entitled to exercise this Warrant to the extent that such exercise would result in the Holders together with any other “attribution parties” collectively beneficially owning in the aggregate in excess of 4.99% (the “Maximum Percentage”) of the number of Ordinary Shares in issue and outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise; provided, however, that (i) the Maximum Percentage shall automatically increase to 9.99% if, at the time of such exercise, the Holders, together with any other “attribution parties,” file any Securities and Exchange Commission reports required as a result of such Holders and such other “attribution parties” collectively beneficially owning in the aggregate in excess of 4.99% of the number of Ordinary Shares in issue and outstanding and (ii) at any time, upon not less than 61 days written notice to the Company, the Holders may increase or decrease the Maximum Percentage to any other percentage. For purposes of this Section 7(e), “attribution parties” means, the Holders, their respective affiliates and any other persons whose beneficial ownership of Ordinary Shares would be aggregated with the Holders’ for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
 
8.            Transfer of Warrant.
 
(a)         Subject to the transfer conditions referred to in the legend endorsed hereon and the other applicable terms and conditions of this Warrant, until the material breach by the Company of this Warrant or the Company Articles (the “Warrant Holder Period”), the Holders shall not Transfer this Warrant except to their respective Affiliates, any Related Fund or holder of Equity Interests of the Holders. Upon and following the expiration of the Warrant Holder Period, the Holders may Transfer this Warrant to any Person. Any Transfer pursuant to this Section 8 shall be implemented by delivering (by email or otherwise) this Warrant to the Company with a duly executed and delivered instrument of Transfer, together with evidence of payment of any relevant stamp duty or transfer taxes by the Transferee. Upon such surrender of the Warrant and subject to the payment of any relevant stamp duty or transfer taxes by the Transferee, the Company shall execute and deliver any new Warrant(s) in the names of the Transferor and permitted Transferees, as applicable, and in accordance with the denominations specified in such instrument of Transfer, and this Warrant shall automatically be cancelled, and the Company shall register the permitted Transferees, and the permitted Transferees shall be deemed to have become, and shall be treated for all purposes as, the holders of record of the new Warrant(s) immediately upon issuance of such new Warrant(s) to such permitted Transferees. Any Transfer in violation of this Section 8 shall be void ab initio.
 
(b)         The Holders understand that this Warrant, and any securities issued in respect hereof or exchange herefor, will bear, for so long as is required by applicable securities laws, a legend in substantially the form of subsection (i) and may bear the legends stated in subsection (ii):
 
(i)      “THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED, ASSIGNED, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR PURSUANT TO RULE 144 OR AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER SUCH ACT.”
 
(ii)         Any legend required by the securities laws of any state to the extent such laws are applicable to the securities represented by the certificate or other document so legended.
 
12

(c)          Certificates or book entries evidencing title to this Warrant and any securities issued in respect hereof or exchange herefor that cease to be restricted pursuant to applicable securities laws shall not contain any legend (including the legends set forth in Section 8(b)) and, promptly following the date on which such securities cease to be restricted pursuant to applicable securities laws, and following the delivery by the Holders and the Holders’ broker(s) to the Company, its legal counsel and the Company’s transfer agent of customary representations and other documentation (including, for the avoidance of doubt, customary certificates and representation letters, but not including any notarized or medallion guaranteed documents) and other representations and documentation as required by law or regulation evidencing that the applicable securities have ceased to be restricted pursuant to applicable securities laws and that the removal of such legend may be effected under the Securities Act, the Company shall cause (i) its legal counsel to issue a customary legal opinion to the Company’s transfer agent to effect the removal of the applicable legends on such securities and (ii) the Company’s transfer agent to deliver to the Holders such securities that are free from all restrictive and other legends by crediting the account of the Holders’ broker with the Depository Trust Company system as directed by the Holders.
 
9.          Replacement on Loss. In the event that the Holders notify the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant, then upon delivery of an indemnity bond or lost warrant affidavit sufficient in the reasonable determination of the Company to protect the Company from any loss that it may suffer if the Warrant is replaced and, in case of mutilation, upon surrender of such Warrant for cancellation to the Company, the Company shall execute and deliver to the Holders, in lieu hereof, a new Warrant of like tenor and exercisable for an equivalent number of Ordinary Shares as the Warrant so lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed and the replaced Warrant shall automatically be cancelled; provided, that, in the case of mutilation, no indemnity bond or lost warrant affidavit shall be required if this Warrant in identifiable form is surrendered to the Company for cancellation.
 
10.       Warrant Register. The Company shall keep and properly maintain at its executive offices records of the registration of this Warrant and any permitted and duly made transfers or exercises thereof. The Company may deem and treat the Person in whose name this Warrant is registered in such register as the holder thereof for all purposes, and the Company shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary, except any assignment, division or other transfer of the Warrant effected in accordance with the provisions of this Warrant.
