R E C I T A L S: WHEREAS, capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meaning set forth in Article II of this Agreement; WHEREAS, on November 16, 2023, the Company entered into a share purchase and investment agreement (the “Base Purchase Agreement”) with the Tencent Investor, SL Globetrotter L.P., a Cayman Islands exempted limited partnership (“Globetrotter”), and Global Blue Holding L.P., a Cayman Islands exempted limited partnership (“GB Holding”), as supplemented by the joinder agreements, each dated November 20, 2023 (together with the Base Purchase Agreement, the “Purchase Agreement”), by certain additional sellers (together with Globetrotter and GB Holding, the “Sellers”), pursuant to which the Tencent Investor will (i) purchase from the Sellers an aggregate 9,090,909 Company Ordinary Shares (the “Common Purchased Shares”) and (ii) subscribe for up to 9,090,909 newly-issued Company Ordinary Shares (together with the Common Purchased Shares, the “Common Acquired Shares”), in each case, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement; and WHEREAS, the Company has agreed to grant the Tencent Investor certain registration rights in respect of the Registrable Securities. NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants, representations, warranties and agreements contained in this Agreement, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties agree as follows: ARTICLE I REGISTRATION 1.1. Shelf Registration Statement. (a) Subject to Section 1.3, the Company agrees that, as soon as reasonably practicable after the date hereof, the Company will file with the Commission (at the Company’s sole cost and expense) a registration statement registering the resale of the Registrable Securities (the “Shelf Registration Statement”). The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to have the Shelf Registration Statement declared effective under the Securities Act as soon as practicable after the filing thereof and in any event before the 6-month anniversary of the date hereof. (b) Subject to Section 1.3, the Company agrees to use reasonable best efforts to keep a Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective until (i) the date on which all Registrable Securities covered by the Shelf Registration Statement have been sold thereunder in accordance with the plan and method of distribution in the prospectus included in the Shelf 2 Registration Statement, or (ii) the date on which this Agreement terminates pursuant to Section 3.1. (c) The Tencent Investor agrees to disclose its ownership to the Company upon request. The Company’s obligations to include the Registrable Securities in the Shelf Registration Statement are contingent upon the Tencent Investor furnishing in writing to the Company such information regarding the Tencent Investor, the securities of the Company held by the Tencent Investor and the intended method of disposition of the Registrable Securities as shall be reasonably requested by the Company to effect the registration of the Registrable Securities, and shall execute such documents in connection with such registration as the Company may reasonably request that are customary of a selling stockholder in similar situations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Commission prevents the Company from including any or all of the Registrable Securities proposed to be registered under the Shelf Registration Statement due to limitations on the use of Rule 415 of the Securities Act for the resale of the Registrable Securities or otherwise, such Shelf Registration Statement shall register the resale of a number of Registrable Securities which is equal to the maximum number of Registrable Securities as is permitted by the Commission; provided, however, that the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to include such Registrable Securities that are not registered due to such limitation in a registration statement as soon as practicable after such registration is permitted by the Commission. 1.2. Shelf Take-Down Demands. (a) On or after the earlier of (i) three (3) years from the date hereof and (ii) the date on which the SL Shareholders have Transferred (excluding Transfers to any Affiliates) more than 50% of their Equity Interests held as of June 13, 2022, the Tencent Investor shall be entitled to deliver a notice to the Company (each, a “Take-Down Notice”) stating that the Tencent Investor intends to sell at least a Registrable Amount of Registrable Securities on the Shelf Registration Statement in an Underwritten Offering (a “Shelf Offering”). The Company shall promptly, and in a manner reasonably agreed with the Tencent Investor amend or supplement the Shelf Registration Statement as may be necessary in order to enable such Registrable Securities to be distributed pursuant to the Shelf Offering. The Tencent Investor shall have the right to request no more than two (2) Take-Down Notices in the aggregate. (b) For the avoidance of doubt, (i) any Shelf Offering will be subject to Sections 1.3 and 1.4 and (ii) nothing in this Section 1.2 shall prevent the Tencent Investor from selling Registrable Securities under Section 1.1 (provided the Company shall not be obligated to assist with such sale except pursuant to the obligations set forth in Section 1.1) or prevent either party from complying with its obligations under Section 1.1. 1.3. Blackout Period. (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Company may delay the filing and effectiveness of the Shelf Registration Statement and any other shelf registration statement, suspend the use of any such Shelf Registration Statement or any other shelf registration statement, or delay a Marketed Underwritten Shelf Offering or Non-Marketed Underwritten Shelf Offering if the Board of Directors of the Company determines in good faith that (x) such filing, effectiveness or use of such Shelf Registration Statement or other shelf


 
3 registration statement, or the registration and distribution of Registrable Securities would materially interfere with the Company’s ability to effect a pending material financing, merger, acquisition, consolidation, recapitalization, corporate reorganization or any other material corporate transaction involving or being considered by the Company or any of its subsidiaries or would require premature disclosure thereof or of material non-public information that would be detrimental to the Company or (y) if in order for the Shelf Registration Statement to not contain a material misstatement or omission, an amendment thereto would be needed to include information that would at that time not otherwise be required to be disclosed to the public under the Exchange Act (a “Blackout Period”). The Company shall (a) promptly give the Tencent Investor written notice of such determination (which shall include a certificate signed by either the chief executive officer or chief financial officer of the Company certifying that, in the good faith judgement of the Company, the conditions described above in the definition of Blackout Period are met) and (b) promptly give the Tencent Investor written notice at the conclusion of such Blackout Period. After the conclusion of any such Blackout Period, the Company, to the extent necessary, shall as promptly as reasonably practicable prepare a post-effective amendment or supplement to the Shelf Registration Statement or the prospectus, or any document incorporated therein by reference, or file any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered to purchasers of the Registrable Securities included therein, the prospectus will not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not invoke more than two Blackout Periods in any 12-month period and any Blackout Period shall not be in excess of 45 days. (b) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Tencent Investor shall not be permitted to exercise its rights under Section 1.2 if at the time of receipt by the Company of a Take-Down Notice the Company determines in good faith that a secondary offering by any Demand Shareholder is reasonably contemplated to occur within (i) 45 days of such receipt, to the extent the Demand Shareholders have not consummated a secondary offering resulting in proceeds in excess of $100 million (“Secondary Offering”) or (ii) 30 days of such receipt if such Secondary Offering has occurred (such period in clauses (i) or (ii) from the date of receipt of such Take-Down Notice, “Demand Block Period”). The Company shall (a) promptly give the Tencent Investor written notice of such determination and (b) promptly give the Tencent Investor written notice at the conclusion of the Demand Block Period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not invoke more than three Demand Block Periods during any fiscal year of the Company and any Demand Block Period shall not be in excess of 45 days if a Secondary Offering has not occurred or 30 days if a Secondary Offering has occurred. 1.4. Acknowledgement of No Demand or Piggyback Registration Rights. The Tencent Investor acknowledges that it does not hold any rights to demand that the Company register any Company Ordinary Shares that it holds except pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement set forth in Section 1.1 and Section 1.2. The Tencent Investor further acknowledges that it does not have any piggyback registration rights in connection with any offering or Transfer by the Company, the Demand Shareholders, the CK Investor or any other shareholder of the Company. 1.5. [Reserved]. 1.6.

(e) With a view to making available to the Tencent Investor the benefits of Rule 144 under the Securities Act and any other rule or regulation of the Commission that may at any time permit the Tencent Investor to sell securities of the Company to the public without registration, the Company shall: (i) use reasonable best efforts to make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act; (ii) use reasonable best efforts to file with the Commission in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Exchange Act, at any time when the Company is subject to such reporting requirements; (iii) furnish to the Tencent Investor, promptly upon request, a written statement by the Company as to its compliance with the reporting requirements of Rule 144 under the Securities Act and of the Exchange Act, a copy of the most recent annual or semi-annual report of the Company, and such other reports and documents so filed or furnished by the Company with the Commission as the Tencent Investor may reasonably request in connection with the sale of Registrable Securities without registration (in each case to the extent not readily publicly available); and (iv) otherwise provide the Tencent Investor with such customary assistance as is reasonably requested. 1.7.

Registration Indemnification. (a) The Company agrees, without limitation as to time, to indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, the Tencent Investor and its Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, members, shareholders, employees, managers, partners and agents and each Person who controls (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act) the Tencent Investor or such other indemnified Person and the officers, directors, members, shareholders, employees, managers, partners, accountants, attorneys and agents of each such controlling Person, from and against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs, expenses (including reasonable expenses of investigation and reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) and amounts paid in settlement (collectively, the “Losses”), as incurred, arising out of, caused by, resulting from or relating to any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any registration statement, prospectus or preliminary prospectus or Free Writing Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto or any omission (or alleged omission) of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of a prospectus, preliminary prospectus, Free Writing Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, except insofar as the same are caused by any information furnished in writing to the Company by the Tencent Investor expressly for use therein. (b) In connection with a Shelf Offering in which the Tencent Investor is participating, without limitation as to time, the Tencent Investor shall, severally and not jointly, indemnify the Company, its directors, officers, stockholders, employees, managers, partners and agents, and each Person who controls (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act) the Company, from and against all Losses, as incurred, arising out of, caused by, resulting from or relating to any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of material fact contained in the Shelf Registration Statement, prospectus or preliminary prospectus or Free Writing Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto or any omission (or alleged omission) of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of a prospectus, preliminary prospectus, Free Writing Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, in light of the circumstances under which they were made)


 
11 not misleading, in each case solely to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or omission is made in such registration statement, prospectus or preliminary prospectus or Free Writing Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto in reliance upon and in conformity with written information regarding the Tencent Investor furnished to the Company by the Tencent Investor expressly for inclusion in the Shelf Registration Statement, prospectus or preliminary prospectus or Free Writing Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Tencent Investor shall not be liable under this Section 1.8(b) for amounts in excess of the net proceeds received by the Tencent Investor in the Shelf Offering giving rise to such liability. (c) 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, however, the failure to give such notice shall not release the indemnifying party from its obligation, except to the extent that the indemnifying party has been actually and materially prejudiced by such failure to provide such notice on a timely basis. (d) In any case in which any such action is brought against any indemnified party, and it notifies an indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate therein, and, to the extent that it may wish, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party, and after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof and acknowledging the obligations of the indemnifying party with respect to such proceeding, the indemnifying party will not (so long as it shall continue to have the right to defend, contest, litigate and settle the matter in question in accordance with this paragraph) be liable to such indemnified party hereunder for any legal or other expense subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof (unless (i) such indemnified party reasonably objects to such assumption on the grounds that there are defenses available to it which are different from or in addition to the defenses available to such indemnifying party, (ii) a conflict of interest exists between the interests of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party, (iii) the indemnifying party shall have failed within a reasonable period of time to assume such defense and the indemnified party is or would reasonably be expected to be materially prejudiced by such delay, in either of which events the indemnified party shall be promptly reimbursed by the indemnifying party for the reasonable fees and expenses incurred in connection with retaining one separate legal counsel (for the avoidance of doubt, for all indemnified parties in connection therewith) plus one local counsel or (iv) such indemnifying party otherwise so agrees). For the avoidance of doubt, notwithstanding any such assumption by an indemnifying party, the indemnified party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such matter and participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party except as provided in the previous sentence. An indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of an action or claim effected without its consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). No matter shall be settled by an indemnifying party without the consent of the indemnified party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), unless such settlement (x) includes as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party, from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation, (y) does not include any statement as to or any admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on 12 behalf of any indemnified party and (z) is settled solely for cash for which the indemnified party would be entitled to indemnification hereunder. (e) The indemnification and contribution provided for under this Agreement shall survive the sale of the Registrable Securities and the termination of this Agreement. (f) If recovery is not available under the foregoing indemnification provisions for any reason or reasons other than as specified therein, any Person who would otherwise be entitled to indemnification by the terms thereof shall nevertheless be entitled to contribution with respect to any Losses with respect to which such Person would be entitled to such indemnification but for such reason or reasons, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party, on the one hand, and such indemnified party, on the other hand, in connection with the actions, statements or omissions that resulted in such Losses as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and of the indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the indemnifying party or by the indemnified party, the Persons’ relative knowledge and access to information concerning the matter with respect to which the claim was asserted, the opportunity to correct and prevent any statement or omission, and other equitable considerations appropriate under the circumstances. It is hereby agreed that it would not necessarily be equitable if the amount of such contribution were determined by pro rata or per capita allocation. No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not found guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Tencent Investor shall not be required to make a contribution in excess of the net proceeds received by the Tencent Investor from its sale of Registrable Securities in connection with the Shelf Offering that gave rise to the contribution obligation.
