乙方是一家根据西班牙法律组织的公司(匿名公司),为Grifols Diagnostic Solutions Inc.(以下简称“GDS”)的股东之一;

 

3.                         GDS is a corporation incorporated and existing under the laws of the United States of America, whose shareholders include Party B and Grifols Shared Services North America Inc. (hereinafter as “GSSNA”), which is the wholly-owned subsidiary of Party B;

 

GDS为一家根据美利坚合众国法律设立并存续的公司,其股东包括乙方和Grifols Shared Services North America Inc.(以下简称“GSSNA”),GSSNA系乙方的全资子公司;

 

4.                         Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement and in the other Transaction Agreements (as defined below), Party B intends to invest in Party A by means of a corporate transaction whereby 1,766,165,808 shares of Party A will be newly issued by Party A to Party B as consideration for the contribution by Party B to Party A of (i) 40 issued and outstanding shares of Series A common stock, par value $0.0001, of GDS, representing 40% of the issued and outstanding Series A common stocks of GDS , and (ii) 50 issued and outstanding shares of Series B common stock, par value $0.0001, of GDS, representing 50% of the issued and outstanding Series B common stocks of GDS.

 

根据本协议以及其他交易文件(定义见下)的条款且受制于其约定的条件,乙方拟通过公司交易的方式向甲方投资,即作为乙方将GDS (i)已发行在外的40股A系列普通股(每股票面金额为$0.0001,占GDS已发行在外的A系列普通股股权的40%)和 (ii) 已发行在外的50股B系列普通股(每股票面金额为$0.0001,占GDS已发行在外的B系列普通股股权的50%),向甲方进行出资的对价,甲方将向乙方新发行甲方1,766,165,808股股份。

 

5.                         The investment transaction contemplated hereby is not a sale of Party A or of GDS but instead of minority interests in such entities.

 

本协议项下拟议的交易并非出售甲方或GDS, 而是出售该等实体的少数权益。

 

6.                         Upon the closing of the proposed investment transaction contemplated hereby, Party B will own a minority interest in Party A and will be the second largest shareholder of Party A. The rights of the shares of Party A shall be set forth in the Amended AOA (as defined below) and the other Transaction Agreements.

在本协议项下的拟议交易交割后,乙方将拥有甲方的少数权益,并为甲方的第二大股东。甲方股份的权利将规定在修订后的章程(定义见下)和其他交易文件中。

 

7.                         Upon the closing of the proposed investment transaction contemplated hereby, GDS will have two shareholders (Party A and GSSNA), with Party A owning a minority interest in GDS and GSSNA retaining voting and economic control of GDS. The rights, preferences and privileges of the shares of GDS shall be set forth in the Amended GDS Charter (as defined below) and the other Transaction Agreements.

For the avoidance of doubt, GDS is not being sold pursuant to the proposed investment transaction contemplated hereby and, instead, only a minority interest in such entity is being contributed to Party A.

 

在本协议项下的拟议交易交割后,GDS仍为GSSNA的子公司,并继续由GSSNA以符合修订后的GDS章程和可适用的法律法规、与过往运营方式类似的方式进行运营和管理。为免疑义,GDS并未因本协议项下的拟议交易被出售,而仅是其少数权益被出资至甲方。

3.4                               Base Date for Pricing and Offering Price.

 

定价基准日和发行价格

 

3.4.1           The base date for pricing of the Offering (hereinafter as the “Base Date for Pricing”) shall be the date hereof, which is the same day of announcing the resolutions of the 34th session of the 4th board of directors of Party A that approves this Agreement.

 

本次发行的定价基准日(以下简称“定价基准日”)应为本协议订立之日,即与甲方第四届董事会第三十四次批准本协议的会议决议公告日为同一日。

 

3.4.2           The Parties agree that the price for the Offering shall be RMB7.50/share (as adjusted pursuant to Section 3.4.3, the “Offering Price”), which is not lower than 90% of the average trading price of Party A’s stock during the sixty (60) trading days prior to the Base Date for Pricing and therefore complies with the requirements of the Measures for Administration of Material Asset Reorganization of Listed Companies. The definite Offering Price shall be subject to approval of Party A’s shareholders’ meeting.

 

双方同意,本次发行的发行价格为人民币7.50元/股(并可根据第3.4.3条调整, 以下简称“发行价格”),该价格不低于定价基准日前六十(60)个交易日甲方股票平均交易价格的90%,符合《上市公司重大资产重组管理办法》的要求。最终发行价格须经甲方股东大会批准。

 

19


 

3.4.3           Notwithstanding to the foregoing, if during the period from the Base Date for Pricing to the Issue Date, Party A implements any ex-rights and ex dividend matters, such as dividend payments, stock distributions or capitalization of capital surplus into its share capital, the Offering Price shall be adjusted accordingly.  Except as required by applicable law, during the period from the Base Date for Pricing to the Issue Date, Party A shall not implement any such ex-rights and ex dividend matters, such as dividend payments, stock distributions or capitalization of capital surplus into its share capital.

 

尽管有上述规定,若自定价基准日至发行日期间,如甲方实施任何除权和除息事项,如派息、送股、资本公积金转增股本等,则发行价格将作相应调整。除非根据适用的法律,从定价基准日至发行日期间,甲方不应实施任何如派息、送股、资本公积金转增股本等除权和除息行为。

 

3.5                               Number of New Party A Shares to be Issued.

 

待发行甲方新股数量

 

3.5.1           The number of the New Party A Shares to be issued by Party A to Party B has been calculated as follows: number of New Party A Shares to be issued by Party A to Party B = Transaction Price of the Contributed GDS Shares / Offering Price. After Party B subscribes for the New Party A Shares issued by Party A with the Contributed GDS Shares held by it, any fraction not sufficient to exchange for one share of the New Party A Shares will be given to Party A at no consideration. On this basis and in consideration of the Transaction Price being RMB13,246,243,560 and the Offering Price of the New Party A Shares being RMB7.50/share, the number of New Party A Shares to be issued by Party A to Party B shall be 1,766,165,808 (as adjusted pursuant to Section 3.5.3).

 

甲方向乙方发行的甲方新股数量已按以下公式计算:甲方向乙方发行的甲方新股数量=拟出资GDS股份的交易价格/发行价格。乙方以其所持拟出资GDS股份认购甲方新股后,剩余不足以换取一股甲方新股的部分将无偿赠与甲方。在此基础上,考虑到交易价格为人民币13,246,243,560元且甲方新股发行价格为人民币7.50元/股,甲方向乙方发行的甲方新股数量为1,766,165,808股 (受制于下文第3.5.3条的调整)。

 

3.5.2           The Parties agree that the Transaction Price will not be adjusted by any profit or loss on the Contributed GDS Shares during the Transitional Period.

 

20


 

双方同意,交易价格将不会因为过渡期间拟出资GDS股份的收益或损失而调整。

 

3.5.3           During the period from the Base Date for Pricing to the Issue Date, if the Offering Price is adjusted pursuant to Section 3.4.3, then the number of New Party A Shares to be issued to Party B upon the consummation of the Transaction will be appropriately adjusted to reflect such adjustment to the Offering Price.

 

自定价基准日至发行日期间,如发行价格根据第3.4.3条调整,则本次交易完成后发行给乙方的甲方新股发行数量将进行适当调整,以反映该等发行价格的调整。

 

3.6                               Definite Offering Price and Number of New Party A Shares. The Offering Price and number of New Party A Shares to be issued shall be subject to the approval by Party A’s shareholders’ meeting and ratification of the CSRC.

 

最终发行价格和甲方新股数量。发行价格和发行甲方新股数量须经甲方股东大会同意及证监会批准。
