D.6.1.Exception from Arbitration

 

As a general exception to the provisions laid out in Section E.11.2 below, Deadlocks and Disputes arising due to a Deadlock shall exclusively be resolved according to the procedure described in this Section D.6.

 

D.6.2.Definition

 

For the purposes of the Agreement, a Deadlock (the “Deadlock”) is understood to occur when:

 

(i)there is an absence of agreement with regards to the adoption of any of the decisions of the General Meeting and/or the Board, where applicable, whose failure to be adopted impedes or obstructs materially the normal functioning of these governing bodies and/or of the business activity of Sierra Parima, including Sierra Parima’s ability to meet its financial obligations; or

 

Sierra Parima – Joint Venture and Shareholders’ AgreementPage | 27

 

 

(ii)it has not been possible to hold the General Meeting or for the Board to sit owing to a lack of quorum on at least three (3) occasions in a period of less than two (2) months, and such impossibility to hold the General Meeting or for the Board to sit impedes or obstructs materially the normal functioning of these governing bodies and/or of the business activity of Sierra Parima, including Sierra Parima’s ability to meet its financial obligations.

 

Any situation that leads to artificial blockage of the Company will not constitute Deadlock. “Artificial blockage” will be understood to refer to any blockage caused by a Party that votes against a resolution or impedes to hold a general Meeting or for the Board to sit without reasonable cause, where approval of that resolution or where the relevant meeting is necessary to allow the Company to operate its business appropriately and efficiently. Creating an “artificial blockage” will be considered a material breach as provided in Section E.2.1 and will have the consequences specified for that circumstance in that Clause.

 

D.6.3.Preventive measures

 

6.3.1.The Shareholders hereby expressly state the importance of the avoidance of Deadlock situations, in connection with the Shareholders’ resolutions and the Board resolutions included in Sections D.2.2.2 and D.3.9, respectively.

 

6.3.2.Each of the Shareholders shall ensure that the Directors appointed in accordance with their proposal inform them in advance about those cases in which a Deadlock situation may be foreseen in order to be able to devise the appropriate measures to, where applicable, prevent or break the Deadlock, always in good faith and in the Company’s interests.

 

Sierra Parima – Joint Venture and Shareholders’ AgreementPage | 28

 

 

D.6.4.Deadlock Notice

 

Should a Deadlock occur, the Shareholders will promptly meet to try to resolve the conflict. If the Shareholders fail to resolve the Deadlock, either Party may send to the other a notification of Deadlock (the “Deadlock Notice”).

 

D.6.5.Deadlock Solution Period

 

Upon receipt of the Deadlock Notice, the governing bodies of the Shareholders will meet in order to try to break the Deadlock; the maximum term for such amicable Deadlock solution shall be sixty (60) Days as from the Day following the receipt of the Deadlock Notice (the “Deadlock Solution Period”).

 

D.6.6.Definite Deadlock

 

6.6.1.If the Deadlock cannot be broken and/or resolved during the Deadlock Solution Period, then the following rules shall apply:

 

(i)Purchase agreement between the Shareholders: Within sixty (60) Days as from the end of the Deadlock Solution Period, the Shareholders shall agree upon the sale or purchase, as applicable, of their respective block of shares in Sierra Parima to each other to achieve that one (1) of them becomes the sole owner of the shares which represent one hundred per cent (100%) of the share capital of Sierra Parima. If the Shareholders fail to reach an agreement within sixty (60) Days from the end of the Deadlock Solution Period, either Party may submit a price per share (the “Options Price”) to the other Party (the “Recipient Party”), within fifteen (15) Days from the day following the date of expiry of the term of sixty (60) Days. In the event of simultaneous offers, the offer stating the highest Options Price will prevail.

  

Within fifteen (15) Days from the day following the date of receipt of the Options Price, the Recipient Party must choose either: (a) to sell all of its shares to the other Party (the “Put Option”) or (b) purchase all of the shares owned by the other Party (the “Call Option”). The price for each share concerned in the Call Option and the Put Option will be the Options Price.

 

Sierra Parima – Joint Venture and Shareholders’ AgreementPage | 29

 

 

Once the Recipient Party has exercised the Put Option or the Call Option, the other Party will be obliged to purchase or sell all the shares concerned in the Call Option or the Put Option, as the case may be, within ninety (90) Days from the day following the date the pertinent option is exercised. After that term of ninety (90) Days has expired, the Options Price will carry daily penalty interest at the annual rate of 10%.

 

(ii)Asset sale through intermediary: In the event that the aforementioned deadlines expire without the Shareholders having signed an agreement for the purchase or sale of the corresponding shares, any of the Shareholders is hereby authorised to select by random drawing conducted before a Spanish notary public on behalf of Sierra Parima a property agency from the following three (3): Richard Ellis, Jones Lang Lasalle or Savills Aguirre Newman, for the purposes of, once the choice has been made, determining the target sales price (in accordance with the market) and subsequently promoting and selling, as a block, either all of the assets of Sierra Parima or Sierra Parima itself.

 

(iii)Auction: Should the assets as a block not be sold within six (6) months as from the selection of the property agency, then the assets as a block are to be put up for auction to be sold to the highest bidder.

 

D.6.7.Management of the Company during a Deadlock situation

 

As long as the Deadlock persists and/or has not been resolved as stipulated in this Section D.6, the Parties agree: (i) to act in good faith in the interests of Sierra Parima; and (ii) to adopt the measures needed for Sierra Parima and, where applicable, for its Subsidiaries, to be managed fairly and expeditiously, minimising the damage which may be incurred as a result of the aforementioned Deadlock.

 

D.7.Restrictions to the Transfer of shares

 

The Transfer of shares in which Sierra Parima’s share capital is divided will generally be governed by the following provisions:

 

D.7.1.Block Transfers only

 

The Shareholders may only Transfer their shares as a block, not partially or in fragments.

 

Sierra Parima – Joint Venture and Shareholders’ AgreementPage | 30

 

 

D.7.2.Initial Minimum Holding Period

 

Based on the Shareholders’ acknowledgement of the essential nature of their stake in the leadership and development of Sierra Parima through the activities carried out by each of them for Sierra Parima, each of the Shareholders has the obligation to maintain their respective stakes in the share capital of Sierra Parima under their direct ownership, or under the ownership of a company under their Control, for a period of five (5) Years as from the Closing Date (the “Minimum Holding Period”), except where prior express written authorisation is granted by the other Shareholder.

 

D.7.3.Transfers amongst Affiliates

 

Any voluntary Transfers of shares, whether for good and valuable consideration or by free gift, will not be restricted subject to this Agreement if and when: (1) made by any legal Person or inter vivos; and (2) in favour of an Affiliate of the Shareholder who desires to Transfer its shares in Sierra Parima (the “Transferor”). In such case, the Transferor shall notify the other Shareholder, in advance and in writing, of its intent to Transfer and of the identity of the potential transferee. The Shareholder who receives such notification may not oppose to the intended Transfer if the notification and the Transfer comply with the provisions of this Section.

 

(i)In any event:

 

(1)The Transferor shall commit to or guarantee to fulfil, jointly and severally, the obligations incurred by virtue of this Agreement and any and all other Contracts governing the relations between the Shareholders; and

 

(2)Prior to such Transfer, the company acquiring the shares shall sign a declaration of adherence to this Agreement and to the Contracts that amend or complement it.

 

(ii)If at any later time the company acquiring the shares ceases to be an Affiliate of the Transferor, then the Transferor shall regain ownership of the shares prior to such an event.

 

For the avoidance of doubt the Minimum Holding Period will not restrict the Parties’ ability to Transfer their shares to Affiliates.

The Notice of Transfer shall identify the shares concerned, the proposed transferee and the terms and conditions of the Transfer (including compensation, term, conditions, and method of payment).

(iv)Exercise of Right of First Refusal: If the Non-Transferring Shareholder duly exercises its Right of First Refusal in the Response Period, then:

 

(1)The Transferor shall have the obligation to carry out the Transfer in favour of the other Shareholder subject to the terms and conditions indicated in the Notice of Transfer within thirty (30) Days as from the end of the Response Period; unless

 

(2)When and if the Transfer to the third Person was supposed to be made in return for good and valuable consideration different from free gift and from sale for currency payments only, then the compensation to be paid for the Transfer between the Shareholders shall be the fair value of the shares determined by one of the three (3) more relevant audit firms at such moment to be appointed by lot before a Spanish notary public.

 

The auditors shall adopt a decision in the period of sixty (60) Days as from the appointment of the third auditor, without the possibility of appeal against such determination of the compensation; and

Sierra Parima – Joint Venture and Shareholders’ AgreementPage | 33

 

 

(v)Exercise of Tag-along Right: If the Non-Transferring Shareholder duly exercises its Tag-along Right in the Response Period (the Tag-along Notice), then:

 

(1)Within fifteen (15) Days as from the end of the finalisation of the Response Period, the Transferor shall obtain, from the third Person transferee, a legally binding offer for the acquisition of the shares of the other Shareholder under the same terms and conditions as those agreed between the Transferor and such third Person.

(vi)The Shareholder intending to Transfer its shares shall inform the potential purchaser during the course of the negotiations of the Right of First Refusal and of the Tag-along Right contained in this sub-Section D.7.4.1. Likewise, it has the obligation to not accept any offer for the Transfer of its shares that may imply in any way that the eventual purchaser is unaware of such rights.

 

D.7.5.Prohibition of indirect Transfer

 

7.5.1.Should the Control of the company through which one (1) of the Shareholders holds the ownership in the shares in the Company change, then the concerned Shareholder shall adopt reasonable measures to regain ownership before such change of Control is completed.

D.7.6.Prohibition of encumbering shares

 

The Shareholders may only encumber their shares and confer rights over them to third Persons if such an operation were to have the sole purpose of obtaining finance for the operations derived from this Agreement and on prior authorisation from the other Party in writing.

(iii)Bearing in mind the serious consequences of a breach of contract, the Shareholders expressly agree that the penalty set out in this Section shall be applied in its entirety and shall not be moderated according to the degree of non-compliance or any other circumstances, the Parties expressly waiving the provisions of article 1,154 of the Spanish Civil Code.

 

7.7.2.Right of Reversal

 

(i)If a Shareholder fails to comply with its obligations regarding the Right of First Refusal or the Tag-along Right, in addition to the penalties and compensation set forth in Section D.7.7.1 above, the non-defaulting Shareholder shall have an in rem right of reversal (“Right of Reversal”), at the price for which the Shares were effectively transferred.

 

Sierra Parima – Joint Venture and Shareholders’ AgreementPage | 35

 

 

(ii)The term for the exercise of the Right of Reversal shall be of ninety (90) Days as from the date in which the non-defaulting Shareholder becomes aware of the breach.

 

(iii)The Parties agree that, in the event that the Right of Reversal cannot be exercised by the non-defaulting Shareholder for reasons not attributable to it, then the non-defaulting Shareholder shall be entitled to request compensation for the damages which shall amount ten times (x10) the fair value of its equity stake on the date of execution of the Transfer of the shares.

 

7.7.3.Protective measures

 

(i)Breach of the Agreement may cause irreparable damage to the non-defaulting Party, which would not be fully compensated for with the remedies provided for herein. Therefore, the Parties believe that, in the event of a breach of contract, it is essential that the non-defaulting Party may obtain, when applicable and as promptly as possible, the adoption of protective measures to safeguard its rights.

 

(ii)Consequently, and without prejudice to its right to claim the compensation provided for in the Agreement, the non-defaulting Party shall also be entitled to request the adoption of protective measures in any court or other competent authority if such measures are not agreed by the arbitration tribunal provided for in sub-Section E.11.2.3.

 

E.General provisions

 

E.1.Term of the Agreement

 

This Agreement shall remain valid and in force until any of the Parties sells 100% of its interest in the Company in accordance with the provisions set out in this Agreement.

 

E.2.Termination of the Agreement

 

E.2.1.The Agreement will terminate in the following circumstances:

 

(i)Mutual written agreement of the Parties;

 

Sierra Parima – Joint Venture and Shareholders’ AgreementPage | 36

 

 

(ii)At the choice of the non-defaulting Party due to breach by the other Party of any of the obligations established in this Agreement or in the Ancillary Contracts that (i) cannot be remedied (it being understood that a breach may be remedied only if any damage caused by the breach is substantially mitigated), or, (ii) where it may be remedied, it has not been remedied or rectified within sixty (60) Days from written notice to the breaching Party (the “Material Breach”);

 

(iii)The insolvency of either Party, or the petition of either Party for bankruptcy or similar insolvency proceedings, and either Party gives the other Party written notice of termination of this Agreement.

 

E.2.2.In the event that the Agreement is terminated by applying the provisions of section E.2.1, the non-breaching Party may choose:

 

(i)To purchase the shares owned by the breaching Party, which will be obliged to sell them, at a price equal to the fair value of the shares as determined by the investment bank agreed by the Parties chosen among the three (3) more relevant investment banks in the banking sector at such moment (the “Investment Bank”), reduced by ten per cent (10%). The Investment Bank will determine the reasonable market value of the Company within sixty (60) Days from the day following the date the non-breaching Party gives the breaching Party notice of termination of the Agreement as provided in Section E.2.B.

 

As an exception to the general regime provided for in Article 1152 of the Civil Code, the price reduction provided for in this clause will be in addition to the indemnity for damages that may result from the breach. The penalisation of the breaching Party comprising the obligation to sell at a discount will not be in lieu of its obligation to indemnify the non-breaching Party for the damages caused.

 

Given the serious nature of the consequences of breaching this Agreement, the Parties expressly agree that this penalty will be applied in full and that there will be no mitigation of the penalty by the arbitration court mentioned in Section E.11.2 in view of the degree of breach or any other circumstance.

 

Sierra Parima – Joint Venture and Shareholders’ AgreementPage | 37

The Investment Bank will determine the fair value of the Company within sixty (60) Days from the day following the date the non-breaching Partner gives the breaching Partner notice of termination of the Agreement as provided in Section E.2.B.

 

The increase in price provided for in this Section will be in addition to any indemnity for damages that may result from the breach. The penalisation of the breaching Party comprising the obligation to purchase at a premium will not be in lieu of its obligation to indemnify the non-breaching Party for the damages caused.

 

Given the serious nature of the consequences of breaching this Agreement, the Parties expressly agree that this penalty will be applied in full and that there will be no mitigation of the penalty by the arbitration court mentioned in Section E.2.B in view of the degree of breach or any other circumstance.

 

E.3.Absence of conflict

 

The execution of this Agreement and the performance of the obligations set out herein by the Parties:

 

(i)does not constitute a breach of legislation, regulations, orders, rules, judgments, rulings or resolutions of any other nature applicable to the Parties; and

 

(ii)does not conflict with Contracts, agreements or instruments binding the Parties, nor does it give rise to a breach or termination of any of the foregoing.

 

E.4.Transfer of rights and obligations

 

A Party may only Transfer its rights and obligations under this Agreement to an Affiliate, provided:

 

(i)the identity of the Transferee company is communicated to the other Party in writing at least fifteen (15) Days prior to the date scheduled for the Transfer; and
