(b)WKSI F-3 Filing. If the Company is eligible to use Form F-3 and is a WKSI, then at any time after the Filing Date following the receipt by the Company of a written notice of a request in respect of a Shelf Registration Statement (a “Shelf Registration Request”) from e&, the Company shall prepare and file with the SEC an Automatic Shelf Registration Statement for an offering to be made on a delayed or continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act, as in effect from time to time, or any successor rule thereto (a “Shelf Registration”) so that such Automatic Shelf Registration Statement becomes effective under the Securities Act on or before the later of (i) the date which is 30 days after the date the Company receives the Shelf Registration Request and (ii) the Lock-Up End Date.

(d)Contents and Effectiveness. The Shelf Registration Statement shall provide for all legally permitted methods or combinations of methods of disposition thereunder of Registrable Securities, including firm commitment underwritten public offerings, bought deals, block trades, sales in connection with hedging transactions, direct sales, transactions on an agency basis, open market sales, and purchases or sales by brokers.

(e)Additional Registrable Securities: Additional Selling Stockholders. Subject to Section 6, at any time and from time to time that a Shelf Registration Statement is effective, if e& requests (i) the registration under the Securities Act of additional Registrable Securities pursuant to such Shelf Registration Statement or (ii) that an Holder be added or replaced as a selling shareholder in such Shelf Registration Statement, the Company shall as promptly as reasonably practicable amend or supplement the Shelf Registration Statement to cover such additional Registrable Securities and/or Holder.

-7-

(f)Right to Effect Shelf Takedowns. Subject to Section 6 and after the Lock-Up End Date, at any time and from time to time when a Shelf Registration Statement is effective and until the Termination Date, each Holder shall be entitled to sell any or all of the Registrable Securities covered by such Shelf Registration Statement (a “Shelf Takedown”), but only upon not less than fifteen (15) Business Days’ prior written notice by e& (an “Underwritten Shelf Takedown Notice”) to the Company if such takedown is to be underwritten (an “Underwritten Shelf Takedown”). Upon receipt of an Underwritten Shelf Takedown Notice, the Company shall, as promptly as reasonably practicable (and in any event within such fifteen (15) Business Days’ notice period) use its reasonable best efforts to effect such Underwritten Shelf Takedown. The Company shall, at the request of e&, file any prospectus supplement or, if the applicable Shelf Registration Statement is an Automatic Shelf Registration Statement, any post-effective amendments and otherwise take any action necessary to include therein all disclosure and language reasonably deemed necessary or advisable by e& to effect such Underwritten Shelf Takedown. e& shall be entitled to issue an Underwritten Shelf Takedown Notice only if the number of Registrable Securities included in such Underwritten Shelf Takedown is not lower than the Minimum Share Threshold at the time of the Underwritten Shelf Takedown Notice (based on the then-current market prices and number of Outstanding Shares). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if e& wishes to engage in an underwritten “block trade”, “overnight block trade”, “bought deal” or similar transaction or other transaction with a 2-day or less marketing period (collectively, an “Underwritten Block Trade”) off of a Shelf Registration Statement, then e& only needs to notify the Company of the Underwritten Block Trade five (5) Business Days prior to the day such offering is to commence and the Underwritten Block Trades are not subject to any minimum requirement of Registrable Securities being sold pursuant to such Underwritten Block Trades. For the avoidance of doubt, Underwritten Shelf Takedowns (excluding Underwritten Block Trades) constitute a Demand Registration such that Section 3, including the limit on the number of Demand Registrations per year, shall apply to an Underwritten Shelf Takedown. For the avoidance of doubt, e& shall be entitled to request (and the Company shall be required to effect) Demand Registrations (including Underwritten Shelf Takedowns but excluding Underwritten Block Trades) no more frequently than twice per calendar year, save that the Company shall act reasonably and discuss in good faith any more frequent requests where e& reasonably considers that the same would be necessary or desirable in light of general market conditions. e& shall give the Company prompt written notice of the consummation of any Shelf Takedown that is not underwritten.

(g)Priority on Underwritten Shelf Takedowns. The Company may include Ordinary Shares other than Registrable Securities in an Underwritten Shelf Takedown for any accounts (including for the account of the Company) on the terms provided below, but only with the consent of the managing underwriters of such offering and e&. Subject to such consent having been received, if the managing underwriters of such Underwritten Shelf Takedown advise the Company and e& in writing that, in their opinion, the number of Ordinary Shares proposed to be included in such Underwritten Shelf Takedown, including all Registrable Securities and all other Ordinary Shares proposed to be included in such offering, exceeds the number of Ordinary Shares which can reasonably be expected to be sold in such offering without adversely affecting the success of the offering (including the price per share, timing or distribution of the Ordinary Shares proposed to be sold in such offering), the Company shall include in such Underwritten Shelf Takedown: (i) first, the Registrable Securities proposed to be sold by e& and the other Holders in such offering, and (ii) second, any Ordinary Shares proposed to be included therein by any other Persons (including Ordinary Shares to be sold for the account of the Company and/or any other holders of

-8-

Ordinary Shares), allocated, in the case of this clause (ii), among such Persons in such manner as the Company may determine. The provisions of this paragraph (g) apply only to an offering that e& has requested be an Underwritten Shelf Takedown (excluding any Underwritten Block Trades).

(h)Selection of Underwriters. e& shall be entitled to select the investment banking firm or firms to act as the managing underwriter or underwriters in connection with such Underwritten Shelf Takedown, subject to, in respect of Underwritten Shelf Takedown which are not Underwritten Block Trades, the approval of the Company (not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) and (ii) manage and direct all decisions required for effecting such Underwritten Shelf Takedown. The provisions of this paragraph (h) apply only to an offering that e& has requested be an Underwritten Shelf Takedown.

Section 3.Demand Registrations.

(a)Right to Demand Registrations. If, at any time after the Lock-Up End Date and prior to the Termination Date, the Company is not eligible to use Form F-3 (or fails to comply with its obligations pursuant to Section 2(a), (b), (c) or (d)), e&, by providing written notice to the Company, may request that it and the other Holders shall be permitted to sell all or part of their Registrable Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form F-1 (a “Demand Registration”). Each request for a Demand Registration (a “Demand Registration Request”) shall specify the number of Registrable Securities intended to be offered and sold and the relevant selling Holders pursuant to the Demand Registration and the intended method of distribution thereof, including whether it is intended to be an underwritten offering. As promptly as practicable and no later than forty-five (45) days after receipt of a Demand Registration Request, the Company shall file a Registration Statement on Form F-1 covering all Registrable Securities that have been requested to be registered in the Demand Registration Request. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Registration Statement filed pursuant to this Section 3(a) to be declared effective by the SEC or otherwise become effective under the Securities Act within 60 days from the original filing date thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be required to effect a Demand Registration on Form F-1 unless the number of Registrable Securities included in such Demand Registration is not lower than the Minimum Share Threshold at the time of the Demand Registration (based on the then-current market prices and number of Outstanding Shares). e& shall be entitled to request (and the Company shall be required to effect) Demand Registrations (including Underwritten Shelf Takedowns but excluding Underwritten Block Trades) no more frequently than twice per calendar year, save that the Company shall act reasonably and discuss in good faith any more frequent requests where e& reasonably considers that the same would be necessary or desirable in light of general market conditions.

(b)Effectiveness and Withdrawal. Upon the date of effectiveness of any Demand Registration for an underwritten offering, the Company shall keep the Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 3(a) effective (including by preparing and filing with the SEC such amendments, including post-effective amendments, and supplements as may be necessary) until all of the Registrable Securities covered by such Demand Registration have been sold by the participating Holder(s). e& may, by written notice to the Company, withdraw all or part of the Registrable Securities from a Demand Registration at any time prior to the effectiveness of the applicable Registration Statement, it being agreed that in the event of a full withdrawal, or a partial withdrawal that would result in the number of Registrable Securities included in such Demand

-9-

Registration being lower than the Minimum Share Threshold at the time of such withdrawal (based on the then-current market prices and number of Outstanding Shares), the Company may (in its sole discretion) cease all efforts to seek effectiveness of the applicable Registration Statement, unless, in the event of a partial withdrawal only, the Company intends to effect a primary offering of securities pursuant to such Registration Statement.

(c)Underwritten Offerings. e& shall be entitled to request an underwritten offering pursuant to a Demand Registration, in which case it shall be entitled to (i) select the investment banking firm or firms to act as the managing underwriter or underwriters in connection with such offering, subject to the approval of the Company (not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) and (ii) manage and direct all decisions required for effecting such Demand Registration. The provisions of this paragraph (c) shall not apply in the event e& conducts a full withdrawal, or a partial withdrawal that would result in the number of Registrable Securities included in the Demand Registration being lower than the Minimum Share Threshold at the time of such withdrawal (based on the then-current market prices and number of Outstanding Shares).

(d)Priority on Underwritten Demand Registrations. The Company may include Ordinary Shares other than Registrable Securities in a Demand Registration for any accounts (including for the account of the Company) on the terms provided below if such Demand Registration is an underwritten offering and only with the consent of the managing underwriters of such offering and e&. Subject to such consent having been received, if the managing underwriters of the requested Demand Registration advise the Company and e& that, in their opinion, the number of Ordinary Shares proposed to be included in such Demand Registration, including all Registrable Securities and all other Ordinary Shares proposed to be included in such offering, exceeds the number of Ordinary Shares which can reasonably be expected to be sold in such offering without adversely affecting the success of the offering (including the price per share, timing or distribution of the Ordinary Shares proposed to be sold in such offering), the Company shall include in such Demand Registration: (i) first, the Registrable Securities proposed to be sold by e& and the other Holders in such offering and (ii) second, any Ordinary Shares proposed to be included therein by any other Persons (including Ordinary Shares to be sold for the account of the Company and/or any other holders of Ordinary Shares), allocated, in the case of this clause (ii), among such Persons in such manner as the Company may determine. The provisions of this paragraph (d) apply only to an offering that a Holder has requested be an underwritten Demand Registration.

Section 4.Piggyback Registrations.

(a)Subject to Section 4(b), whenever after the Lock-Up End Date but prior to the Termination Date the Company proposes to register any Ordinary Shares under the Securities Act (other than a registration (i) pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-8 (or other registration solely relating to an offering or sale to employees or directors of the Company pursuant to any employee stock plan or other employee benefit arrangement), (ii) pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form F-4 (or similar form that relates to a transaction subject to Rule 145 under the Securities Act or any successor rule thereto), (iii) in connection with any dividend or distribution reinvestment or similar plan, or (iv) in connection with any securities issuable or deliverable upon the conversion or exchange of any convertible or exchangeable debt instruments), whether for its own account or for the account of one or more shareholders of the Company (other than the

Holders of Registrable Securities) and the form of Registration Statement to be used may be used for any registration of Registrable Securities (a “Piggyback Registration”), the Company shall give at least fifteen (15) Business Days’ prior written notice to e& of its intention to effect such a registration and, subject to Sections 4(b), shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to include in such Registration Statement and in any offering of Ordinary Shares to be made pursuant to such Registration Statement that number of Registrable Securities requested to be sold in such offering by e& for its account or the account of any other Holder; provided that the Company has received a written request for inclusion therein from e& no later than six (6) Business Days after the date on which the Company has given notice of the Piggyback Registration to e&. This Agreement alone shall not be interpreted to impose on the Company any obligation to proceed with any Piggyback Registration and the Company may, in its sole discretion, abandon, terminate and/or withdraw a Piggyback Registration for any reason at any time prior to the pricing thereof. If a Piggyback Registration is effected pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form F-3 or the then appropriate form for an offering to be made on a delayed or continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act or any successor rule thereto (a “Piggyback Shelf^, Registration Statement”), e& shall be notified by the Company of and shall have the right, but not the obligation, to participate together with the other Holders in any offering pursuant to such Piggyback Shelf Registration Statement (a “Piggyback Shelf Takedown”), subject to the same limitations that are applicable to any other Piggyback Registration as set forth above.

(c)Selection of Underwriters. If a Piggyback Registration or Piggyback Shelf Takedown is initiated as a primary or secondary underwritten offering, the Company shall be entitled to (i) select the investment banking firm or firms to act as the managing underwriter or underwriters in connection with such offering and take into reasonable consideration any request by e& to select a co-managing underwriter (ii) manage and direct all decisions required for effecting such Piggyback Registration or Piggyback Shelf Takedown.

(d)Withdrawal. e& shall have the right to withdraw its request for inclusion of its and/or the other Holders’ Registrable Securities in any registration statement pursuant to this Section 4 by giving written notice to the Company of its request to withdraw; provided, however, that such request must be made in writing at least one Business Day prior to the earlier of the execution by the selling Holders of the Underwriting Agreement or the execution by such selling Holders of the custody agreement with respect to such registration.

Section 5.Holdback Agreements.

(a)To the extent requested by the managing underwriter(s) for an underwritten offering pursuant to Sections 2 or 3 of this Agreement, each Holder that, together with its Affiliates, beneficially owns more than one (1) percent of the then-outstanding Ordinary Shares (including Ordinary Shares represented by ADSs) shall not, and shall cause its subsidiaries not to, effect any registered sale of Ordinary Shares under the Securities Act or other public distribution of Ordinary Shares during such period as is reasonably requested by the managing underwriter(s) (which period shall in no event be longer than three (3) days prior to and ninety (90) days (thirty days in the case of an Underwritten Block Trade) after the pricing of such offering), and each Holder shall sign customary “lock up” agreements in form and substance, and with exceptions that are customary for an underwritten offering of such type and size.

For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of this Section 5(a) shall apply only in respect of an underwritten offering and only if the number of Registrable Securities to be sold in the offering is not lower than the Minimum Share Threshold at the time of the Underwritten Shelf Takedown Notice or Demand Registration, as applicable, (based on the then-current market prices and number of Outstanding Shares).

Section 6.Suspensions.

(a)Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Company shall be entitled to delay or suspend the filing, effectiveness or use of a Registration Statement or Prospectus (including by withdrawing or declining to amend any Registration Statement or Prospectus that has been filed or by declining to take any other actions otherwise required hereunder with regard to any Registration Statement or Prospectus) (a “Suspension”) (a) at such times as are required by law (including the EU Market Abuse Regulation) as reasonably determined by the Company based on the advice of outside counsel, (b) if the Company determines in good faith that the participation of the Company would reasonably be expected to (i) require public disclosure of material non-public information that would not otherwise be required to be disclosed and (ii) such disclosure of material non-public information would have a material adverse effect on any pending negotiation to effect a material merger, acquisition, disposition, financing, reorganization, recapitalization or other similar extraordinary transaction or (c) within ninety (90) days after the effective date of any Piggyback Registration (each of (a), (b) and (c), a “Valid Suspension Reason”).

(xviii)take no direct or indirect action prohibited by Regulation M under the Exchange Act;

(xix)in the case of an underwritten offering in which a Holder participates pursuant to a Demand Registration, a Piggyback Registration or a Shelf Registration, (A) if at any time the information conveyed to a purchaser at the time of sale includes any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, as promptly as reasonably practicable file with the SEC such amendments or supplements to such information as may be necessary so that the statements as so amended or supplemented will not, in the light of the circumstances, be misleading, and (B) as promptly as reasonably practicable incorporate in a supplement to the Prospectus or a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement such other information as is reasonably requested by e& or the managing underwriter(s) participating in such underwritten offering to be included therein, the purchase price for the securities to be paid by the underwriters and any other applicable terms of such underwritten offering, and promptly make all required filings of such supplement or post-effective amendment;

-17-

Piggyback Registration or a Shelf Registration, enter (and cause its directors and officers to enter) into a customary underwriting agreement for offerings of that kind, containing such provisions (including provisions for indemnification, opinions of counsel and comfort letters and lock-up agreements not to exceed ninety (90) days, if requested by the managing underwriters) and take all such other customary and reasonable actions as the managing underwriters of such offering may reasonably request in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of such Registrable Securities (including causing members of senior management of the Company to make themselves available at reasonable times and places to participate in “road shows” or other marketing efforts that the managing underwriter(s) determines are necessary to effect the offering and otherwise assist the managing underwriters in the marketing of the Registrable Securities);

(xxi)without limiting the generality of Section 13, cooperate with the Holders and the managing underwriters, if any, to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of book-entry shares or certificates not bearing any restrictive legends representing the Registrable Securities to be sold, and cause such Registrable Securities to be issued in such denominations and registered in such names in accordance with the Underwriting Agreement at least two (2) Business Days prior to any sale of Registrable Securities to the underwriters or, if not an underwritten offering, in accordance with the instructions of e& at least two (2) Business Days prior to any sale of Registrable Securities and instruct any transfer agent and registrar of Registrable Securities to release any stop transfer orders in respect thereof (and, in the case of Registrable Securities registered on a Shelf Registration Statement, at the request of e&, prepare and deliver book-entry shares or certificates representing such Registrable Securities not bearing any restrictive legends and deliver or cause to be delivered an opinion or instructions to the transfer agent in order to allow such Registrable Securities to be sold from time to time);

(xxii)to the extent the Company has filed an Automatic Shelf Registration Statement which covers Registrable Securities and has not paid the filing fee covering those Registrable Securities at the time the Automatic Shelf Registration Statement is filed, pay such fee at such time or times as the Registrable Securities are to be sold in compliance with the SEC rules; and

(xxiii)without limiting any of the Company’s obligations set forth in this Agreement, if the Company files any Shelf Registration Statement for the benefit of the holders of any of its Ordinary Shares other than the Holders, and the Holders do not request that their Registrable Securities be included in such Shelf Registration Statement, the Company agrees that it shall include in such registration statement such disclosures as may be required by Rule 430B under the Securities Act (referring to the unnamed selling security holders in a generic manner by identifying the initial offering of the securities to the Holders) in order to ensure that the Holders may be added at e&’s request to such Shelf Registration Statement at a later time through the filing of a prospectus supplement rather than a post-effective amendment; provided that the foregoing obligation shall only apply to the extent that the Company is eligible to rely on Rule 430B under the Securities Act with respect to selling security holder disclosures.

-18-

(b)Subject to Section 11(c), e& shall furnish to the Company in writing such information regarding itself and any relevant selling Holders and the distribution proposed by it as is required for use in any such Registration Statement or Prospectus, including responses to questionnaires as are customary for similar transactions, and which the Company may reasonably request or as may be required by applicable securities laws and regulations, and as shall be required in connection with any registration, qualification or compliance referred to in this Agreement. e& agrees to notify the Company as promptly as reasonably practicable of any inaccuracy or change in information previously furnished to the Company or of the happening of any event, in either case as a result of which any Prospectus contains an untrue statement of a material fact regarding e& or any other selling Holder or the distribution of such Registrable Securities or omits to state any material fact regarding e& or any other selling Holder or the distribution of such Registrable Securities required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and to furnish to the Company promptly any additional information required to correct and update any previously furnished information or required such that such Prospectus shall not contain, with respect to e& or any other selling Holder or the distribution of such Registrable Securities, an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

(c)e& agrees by having the Relevant Shares treated as Registrable Securities hereunder that, upon being advised in writing by the Company of the occurrence of an event pursuant to Section 7(a)(vi), it will (and will cause any other Holder to) immediately discontinue (and direct any other Persons making offers and sales of Registrable Securities to immediately discontinue) offers and sales of Registrable Securities pursuant to any Registration Statement (other than those pursuant to a plan that is in effect prior to such time and that complies with Rule 10b5-1 of the Exchange Act) until it is advised in writing by the Company that the use of the Prospectus may be resumed and is furnished with a supplemented or amended Prospectus as contemplated by Section 7(a)(vi), and, if so directed by the Company, e& will deliver to the Company all copies, other than permanent file copies then in e&’s possession, of the Prospectus covering such Registrable Securities current at the time of receipt of such notice.

(d)e& shall provide written notice to the Company as soon as practicable, and in any case within five (5) Business Days, once e& or any Holder ceases to own any Registrable Securities because of one or more transfers or other dispositions. The Company shall not disclose any information regarding the Holders’ holdings of Registrable Securities communicated to the Company in accordance with this Section 7(d) to any other Persons, other than its counsel.

(e)e& agrees that neither it nor any Holder will prepare or have prepared on its or their behalf or used or refer to, any issuer free writing prospectus without the prior written consent of the Company and, in connection with any underwritten offering, the underwriters.

(f)e& shall, and shall ensure that each Holder does, comply with the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and all applicable state securities laws in connection with the registration and the disposition of Registrable Shares pursuant hereto.

(g)The Company may prepare and deliver an issuer free writing prospectus (as such term is defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) in lieu of any supplement to a Prospectus,

-19-

and references herein to any “supplement” to a Prospectus shall include any such issuer free writing prospectus, provided that the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to ensure that any free writing prospectus utilized in connection with any registration or offering covered by this Agreement complies in all material respects with the Securities Act, is filed in accordance with the Securities Act to the extent required thereby, is retained in accordance with the Securities Act to the extent required thereby and, when taken together with the related Prospectus and related documents, will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

(h)It is understood and agreed that if, solely as a result of unresolved SEC comments, the Company has been unable to file and obtain, or maintain, effectiveness of a Registration Statement or any amendment or supplement thereto or to cause any such document to become or remain effective or usable within or for any particular period of time as provided in Section 2, Section 3 or this Section 7, the Company shall not be in breach of this Agreement; provided that the Company has used since the date of the first Request hereunder, and continues to use, its best efforts to resolve such unresolved SEC comments as promptly as is practicable.

(i)It is further understood and agreed that the Company shall not have any obligations under this Section 7 at any time on or after the Termination Date, unless an underwritten offering initiated pursuant to this Agreement has been priced but not completed prior to the Registration Rights Termination Date, in which event the Company’s obligations under this Section 7 shall continue with respect to such offering until it is so completed (but not more than 30 days after the commencement of the offering).

Section 8.Underwritten Offerings.

(a)In the event of an underwritten offering in which a Holder participates pursuant to a Demand Registration or a Shelf Registration, the Company shall enter into a customary Underwriting Agreement with the underwriters. Such Underwriting Agreement shall (i) be satisfactory in form and substance to e&, (ii) contain terms not inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement and (iii) contain such representations and warranties by, and such other agreements on the part of, the Company and such other terms as are generally prevailing in agreements of that type, including indemnities and contribution agreements on substantially the same terms as those contained herein or as otherwise customary for the underwriters. Every selling Holder shall be a party to such underwriting agreement, provided that under such underwriting agreement: (i) each selling Holder shall not be required to make any representations or warranties to or agreements with the Company or the underwriters other than customary representations of a selling shareholder, including representations, warranties or agreements regarding its ownership of and title to the Registrable Securities, any written information specifically provided by such selling Holder for inclusion in the Registration Statement and its intended method of distribution, and (ii) any liability of such selling Holder to any underwriter or other Person under such underwriting agreement for indemnity, contribution or otherwise shall in no case be greater than the amount of the net proceeds received by such selling Holder upon the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement (after deducting underwriters’ discounts and commissions) and in no event shall relate to anything other than information about such selling Holder specifically provided by e& for use in the Registration Statement and prospectus and shall otherwise contain

-20-

terms no less advantageous to such selling Holders than those provided in Section 11 (the above clauses (i) and (ii) collectively, the “Acceptable Terms”).

(b)In the case of an underwritten offering in which a Holder participates pursuant to a Piggyback Registration, if the Company shall have determined to enter into an Underwriting Agreement in connection therewith, all of the selling Holders’ Registrable Securities to be included in such registration shall be subject to such Underwriting Agreement (provided such Underwriting Agreement reflects the Acceptable Terms (as defined above)).

Section 9.Registration and Selling Expenses.

(a)Subject to the remainder of this Section 9, the Company shall pay directly or, if incurred by e& or any Holder, promptly reimburse to e&, the Registration Expenses applicable to the registration or sale by or for the benefit of e& or any selling Holder. e& will be responsible for any Selling Expenses.

(b)The obligation of the Company to bear and pay for expenses of any registration proceeding under Section 9(a) shall apply irrespective of whether a registration, once properly demanded or requested, becomes effective or is withdrawn or suspended; provided that the Registration Expenses for any Registration Statement withdrawn solely at the request of e& (unless withdrawn following commencement of a Suspension) shall be borne by e&.

Section 10.Confidentiality. The provisions under clauses 14.1 and 14.2 of the Relationship Agreement shall apply to any confidential information made available under this Agreement and shall be deemed to be incorporated in this letter as if set out in full, mutatis mutandis.

Section 11.Indemnification; Contribution.

(a)The Company shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, indemnify and hold harmless each Holder and any Person which is or might be deemed to be a “controlling person” of each Holder or any of its subsidiaries within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (each such Person, a “Controlling Person”), and their respective directors, officers and employees (each of the foregoing, together with such Holders, a “Covered Person”) against any losses, claims, actions, damages, liabilities and expenses, joint or several, to which such Covered Person may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any state blue sky securities laws, any equivalent non-U.S. securities laws, common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, actions, damages, liabilities or expenses arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in or incorporated by reference in any such Registration Statement, Prospectus, preliminary Prospectus, free writing prospectus (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act or any successor rule thereto) or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any document incorporated by reference therein, (ii) any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, (iii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact in the information conveyed by the Company to any purchaser at the time of the sale to such purchaser, or the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or (iv) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act

-21-

or any other similar federal or state securities laws or any rule or regulation promulgated thereunder applicable to the Company and relating to any action or inaction required of the Company in connection with any registration of securities, and the Company shall reimburse such Covered Persons for any legal or other documented expenses (including counsel fees) reasonably incurred by such Covered Person in connection with investigating, defending or settling any such loss, claim, action, damage or liability; provided that, subject to Section 11(c), the Company shall not be so liable in any such case to the extent that any loss, claim, action, damage, liability or expense arises out of or is based upon any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement, or omission or alleged omission, made or incorporated by reference in any such Registration Statement, Prospectus, preliminary Prospectus, free writing prospectus (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act or any successor rule thereto) or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any document incorporated by reference therein in reliance upon, and in conformity with, written information prepared and furnished to the Company by such Covered Person expressly for use therein. This indemnity shall be in addition to any liability the Company may otherwise have.

(b) Subject to Section 11(c), in connection with any registration in which a Holder of Registrable Securities is participating, e& shall furnish to the Company in writing such information regarding itself and any Holder as is required for use in any such Registration Statement or Prospectus and shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors and officers, employees, agents and any Person which is or might be deemed to be a Controlling Person against any losses, claims, actions, damages, liabilities and expenses, joint or several, to which they or any of them may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any state blue sky securities laws, any equivalent non-U.S. securities laws, common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, actions, damages, liabilities or expenses arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, Prospectus, preliminary Prospectus, free writing prospectus (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act or any successor rule thereto) or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any document incorporated by reference therein, or (ii) any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but, in the case of each of clauses (i) and (ii), only to the extent that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement, or omission or alleged omission, is made in such Registration Statement, Prospectus, preliminary Prospectus, free writing prospectus (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act or any successor rule thereto) or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any document incorporated by reference therein in reliance upon, and in conformity with, written information prepared and furnished to the Company by any Holder expressly for use therein, and e& shall reimburse the Company, its directors and officers, employees, agents and any Person which is or might be deemed to be a Controlling Person for any legal or other documented expenses (including counsel fees) reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating, defending or settling any such loss, claim, action, damage or liability; provided that the obligation to indemnify pursuant to this Section 11(b) shall be of e& only and shall not exceed an amount equal to the net proceeds (after deducting underwriters’ discounts and commissions) actually received by all selling Holders in the sale of Registrable Securities to which such Registration Statement or Prospectus relates. This indemnity shall be in addition to any liability which e& may otherwise have.

-22-

(c)The Company and e& hereby acknowledge and agree that, unless otherwise expressly agreed to in writing by e&, for all purposes of this Agreement (including Section 11(a) and (b)), the only information furnished or to be furnished by any Holder to the Company for use in any such Registration Statement, Prospectus, preliminary Prospectus, free writing prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any document incorporated by reference therein, are statements specifically relating to (i) the beneficial ownership of the Registrable Securities by such Holder and its Affiliates as disclosed in the section of such document entitled “Selling Stockholders” or “Principal and Selling Stockholders” and (ii) the name and address of the selling Holders.

(d)Any Person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification; provided that any failure or delay to so notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations hereunder, except to the extent that the indemnifying party is actually and materially prejudiced by reason of such failure or delay. In case a claim or an action that is subject or potentially subject to indemnification hereunder is brought against an indemnified party, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate in and shall have the right, exercisable by giving written notice to the indemnified party as promptly as practicable after receipt of written notice from such indemnified party of such claim or action, to assume, at the indemnifying party’s expense, the defense of any such claim or action, with counsel reasonably acceptable to the indemnified party; provided that any indemnified party shall continue to be entitled to participate in the defense of such claim or action, with counsel of its own choice, but the indemnifying party shall not be obligated to reimburse the indemnified party for any fees, costs and expenses subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with such defense unless (A) the indemnifying party has agreed in writing to pay such fees, costs and expenses, (B) the indemnifying party has failed to assume the defense of such claim or action within a reasonable time after receipt of notice of such claim or action, (C) having assumed the defense of such claim or action, the indemnifying party fails to pursue the defense of such claim or action in a reasonable manner, (D) the use of counsel chosen by the indemnifying party to represent the indemnified party would present such counsel with a conflict of interest or (E) the indemnified party has reasonably concluded that there may be one or more legal or equitable defenses available to it and/or other any other indemnified party which are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party. Subject to the proviso in the foregoing sentence, no indemnifying party shall, in connection with any one claim or action or separate but substantially similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general circumstances or allegations, be liable for the fees, costs and expenses of more than one firm of attorneys (in addition to any local counsel) for all indemnified parties. The indemnifying party shall not (x) have the right to settle a claim or action for which any indemnified party is entitled to indemnification hereunder without the consent of the indemnified party, and (y) consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into or agree to any settlement relating to such claim or action, in each case unless such judgment or settlement (A) does not impose any admission of wrongdoing or ongoing obligations on any indemnified party and (B) includes as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff therein to such indemnified party, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party, of a full and final release from all liability in respect of such claim or action. The indemnifying party shall not be liable hereunder for any amount paid or payable or incurred pursuant to or in connection with any judgment entered or settlement effected with the consent of

-23-

an indemnified party unless the indemnifying party has also consented to such judgment or settlement (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(e)If the indemnification provided for in this Section 11 is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to, or unenforceable by, an indemnified party in respect of any loss, claim, action, damage, liability or expense referred to in this Section 11, then the applicable indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party hereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such loss, claim, action, damage, liability or expense in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party, on the one hand, and of the indemnified party, on the other hand, in connection with the statements, omissions or violations referred to in this Section 11 which resulted in such loss, claim, action, damage, liability or expense as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party, on the one hand, and of the indemnified party, on the other hand, shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the indemnifying party or by the indemnified party, whether the violation of the Securities Act or any other federal or state securities law or rule or regulation promulgated thereunder applicable to the Company and relating to any action or inaction required of the Company in connection with any registration of securities was perpetrated by the indemnifying party or the indemnified party, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement, omission or violation. The parties agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant hereto were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method or allocation that does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to in this Section 11(e). In no event shall the amount which e& or any other Holder of Registrable Securities may be obligated to contribute pursuant to this Section 11(e) exceed an amount equal to the net proceeds (after deducting underwriters’ discounts and commissions) actually received by the selling Holders in the sale of Registrable Securities that gives rise to such obligation to contribute. No indemnified party guilty or liable of fraudulent misrepresentation within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act shall be entitled to contribution from any Person which was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

(f)Indemnification similar to that specified in the preceding paragraphs of this Section 11 (with appropriate modifications) shall be given by the Company and e& with respect to any required registration or other qualification of securities under any applicable securities and state “blue sky” laws.

(g)The indemnification provided for under this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the indemnified Person or any officer, director or Controlling Person of such indemnified Person and shall survive the transfer of securities and the Termination Date but only with respect to offers and sales of Registrable Securities made before the Termination Date or during the period following the Termination Date referred to in Section 7(i).

Section 12.Rule 144 Compliance. With a view to making available to the Holders of Registrable Securities the benefits of Rule 144 and any other rule or regulation of the SEC that

(a)make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144;

(b)use best efforts to file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act; and

(c)furnish to any Holder of Registrable Securities, promptly upon request by e&, a written statement by the Company as to its compliance with the reporting requirements of Rule 144 and of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act.

Section 13.Transfer Assistance. In connection with any sale or transfer of Relevant Shares by e& or any of its Affiliates, including any sale or transfer pursuant to Rule 144 and other rules and regulations of the SEC that may at any time permit a Holder of Registrable Securities to sell securities of the Company to the public without registration, the Company shall, to the extent allowed by law, take any and all action necessary or reasonably requested by e& in order to permit or facilitate such sale or transfer, including, without limitation, at the sole expense of the Company, by (i) issuing such directions to any transfer agent, registrar or depositary, as applicable, (ii) delivering such opinions to the transfer agent, registrar or depositary as are customary for transactions of this type and are reasonably requested, and (iii) taking or causing to be taken such other actions as are necessary (in each case on a timely basis) in order to cause any legends, notations or similar designations restricting transferability of the Relevant Shares to be removed and to rescind any transfer restrictions with respect to such Relevant Shares; provided, however, that if reasonably requested by the Company, e& shall deliver to the Company, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company, representation letters regarding its or its applicable Affiliate’s compliance with such rules and regulations, as may be applicable. In addition, the Company, at its sole expense, shall use reasonable best efforts to remove any restrictive legend on any Relevant Shares, as applicable, upon request by e& if (A) such Relevant Shares are sold pursuant to an effective registration statement or (B) a registration statement covering the resale of such Relevant Shares is effective under the Securities Act and e&, on behalf of itself or the applicable Affiliate, delivers to the Company a representation letter agreeing that such Relevant Shares will be sold under such effective registration statement.

Section 14.Miscellaneous.

(f)No Waivers. No failure or delay by any party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies herein provided shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.

This Agreement (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of the Relationship Agreement incorporated by reference herein pursuant to Section 10) shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the law of any jurisdiction other than the State of New York.
