represents, warrants, covenants and agrees that, in reliance on the Purchasers representations in Section 2.01(e), the Exchange Shares (X) will be freely transferable by the Purchasers, without restriction or limitation (including

Company through its Deposit/Withdrawal At Custodian system. For the avoidance of doubt, as of effectiveness of the Exchange, each Purchaser shall be deemed for all corporate purposes to have
become the legal and record holder of its Exchange Shares without any further action by any party. In the event that any Exchange Shares are not delivered on a timely basis in accordance herewith, the Purchasers shall have the right to rescind and

Notes. Upon consummation of the Repayment and the Exchange (including delivery of all of the Exchange Shares to the Purchasers in accordance herewith), the Tranche 4 Notes will have been repaid in full, will be deemed cancelled and
will be of no further force or effect. The Purchaser will thereafter surrender the Tranche 4 Notes to the Borrower for cancellation.
