The transactions contemplated by the Share Purchase Agreement closed on August 12, 2021 (the “Completion Date”) and, on such date, the Company, among other things:

(i)

issued 3,150,000 Common Shares and 700,000 Class A Preferred Shares to Marubeni Offshore;

(ii)

issued 3,465,000 Common Shares to INCJ SJ;

(iii)

issued 385,000 Common Shares to MOL Offshore;

(iv)

delivered the Warrant (as defined below) to Marubeni Offshore, INCJ SJ and MOL Offshore;

With respect to the Class A Preferred Shares, Marubeni has agreed to use reasonable endeavors to convert the Class A Preferred Shares into Common Shares as soon as reasonably practicable following the Completion Date, provided that Marubeni shall not effect a conversion if such conversion is reasonably likely to result in Marubeni becoming the owner of 20% or more of the Common Shares then issued and outstanding (the “20% Threshold”) (giving effect to the potential subsequent exercise and receipt by Marubeni of Common Shares pursuant to the Warrant and/or the potential subsequent receipt of any additional Common Shares as a result of the employment of the vessel Seajacks Scylla during the period from May 1, 2021 to October 31, 2021, and after taking into account of any Common Shares that the Company has repurchased under any approved share repurchase plan following the Completion Date). Additionally, the Company has agreed to not repurchase any Common Shares if such repurchase would result in Marubeni crossing the 20% Threshold.

Additionally, the Company has agreed to issue to the Reporting Persons, on a pro-rata basis, a number of additional Common Shares as a result of the employment of the vessel Seajacks Scylla during the period from May 1, 2021 to October 31, 2021. The number of additional Common Shares to be issued will be calculated based on the revenue recognized from the employment of the vessel during this period (provided that for purposes of calculating the number of additional Common Shares, the revenue shall not exceed US$7,986,000). This calculation is to be completed as soon as reasonably possible, and in any event, by no later than November 20, 2021.

Except with the prior written consent of the Company, the Reporting Persons have agreed to not transfer any Common Shares, beneficial ownership thereof or any other interest therein, prior to the expiration of the 180th day following the Completion Date (the “Lock-up Period”), except to another Reporting Person, their subsidiaries, and any holding company of any Reporting Person and any subsidiaries of such holding company.

The foregoing description of the Share Purchase Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of such agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this Schedule 13D and incorporated herein by reference.

Shareholders’ Agreement

In connection with the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Share Purchase Agreement, Marubeni, INCJ, MOL, the Company, and SSH entered into the Shareholders’ Agreement, dated as of August 12, 2021.

Pursuant to the Shareholders’ Agreement, for a period of seven years commencing on the Completion Date, as long as each of Marubeni and INCJ each beneficially own at least 2,500,000 Common Shares of the Company, each of Marubeni and INCJ has the right to designate one nominee for appointment or election to the Board of Directors of the Company. Either Marubeni or INCJ (but not both) has the right to transfer its right to designate one nominee for appointment or election to the Board of Directors of the Company to MOL such that MOL, instead of Marubeni or INCJ, will have the right to designate one nominee for appointment or election to the Board of Directors.

For a period of seven years commencing at the Completion Date, Marubeni, INCJ, MOL, and SSH have agreed to vote their Common Shares in accordance with the recommendations of the Board, or any committee thereof, with respect to the appointment of any director recommended by the Board or any committee (including the Marubeni and INCJ nominees to the Board of Directors of the Company); provided that the number of directors related to SSH or any of its affiliates does not exceed two directors at any given time. Additionally, each of Marubeni, INCJ, and MOL have agreed to vote their Common Shares in support of any increase in the authorized share capital of the Company as recommended by the Company’s Board of Directors, including a majority of the independent directors; provided that such shareholder is entitled pursuant to the Shareholders’ Agreement to nominate at least one director to the Board.

Additionally, in the event that the Company issues additional shares of Common Stock or securities convertible into shares of Common Stock during the period commencing on the Completion Date and ending on the seven year anniversary of the Completion Date, the Company must offer to each Reporting Person the right to purchase its pro-rata portion of such additional shares equal to the greater of (i) the percentage determined by dividing (x) the number of shares of Common Shares held by such Reporting Person on a fully-diluted basis by (y) the number of shares of Common Shares of the Company outstanding on a fully diluted basis as of the Completion Date, and (ii) the percentage determined by dividing (x) the Consideration Shares held by such Reporting Person on a fully-diluted basis as of the Completion Date, by (y) the number of shares of Common Shares of the Company outstanding on a fully diluted basis as of the Completion Date.

The foregoing description of the Shareholders’ Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of such agreement filed as Exhibit 99.2 to this Schedule 13D and incorporated herein by reference.

Registration Rights Agreement

In connection with the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Share Purchase Agreement, Marubeni Offshore, INCJ SJ, MOL Offshore, and the Company entered into the Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of August 12, 2021. Pursuant to the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company has agreed to prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement on Form F-3 (the “Registration Statement”), as soon as practicable after the Completion Date, but in any event no later than 60 days prior to the expiration of the Lock-up Period, with respect to the resale of the Registrable Securities (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) of Marubeni Offshore, INCJ SJ and MOL Offshore. The Company has agreed to use commercially reasonable best efforts to cause such Registration Statement to be declared effective as soon as practicable after filing.

(a) Until the earlier of (i) the end of the Director Nomination Right Period, or (ii) until such time as Marubeni or INCJ, as applicable, ceases to beneficially own at least 2,500,000 shares of Common Stock of the Company, each of Marubeni and INCJ shall have the right to designate one (1) nominee for appointment or election to the Board, who shall be reasonably acceptable to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board acting in good faith and applying reasonable and customary criteria applicable to all non-officer/non-employee Directors generally and who (1) shall be a Non-U.S. Person to the extent determined necessary by the Board in order to preserve the Company’s status as a Foreign Private Issuer; (2) shall be determined in the reasonable judgement of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee to qualify as an Independent Director; (3) shall not be an officer or employee of the Company, either at the time of or following their appointment as Director; and (4) shall not be an officer or an employee or a board member of any Person engaged in a Restricted Business within the Restricted Territory (each as defined in the Share Purchase Agreement) (the “Director Nomination Right”); provided however, that at any time prior to the expiration of the Director Nomination Right Period, each of Marubeni and INCJ shall have the right to notify the Company, in writing, that, effective not earlier than the date of such written notice, MOL may exercise the Director Nomination Right set forth in this Section 2.01(a) in the place of, and not in addition to, either Marubeni or INCJ. For the avoidance of doubt, (i) the Director Nomination Right of a Shareholder shall terminate immediately upon the beneficial ownership of such Shareholder being less than 2,500,000 shares of Common Stock of the Company, and any sitting director of the Company nominated pursuant to such Shareholder’s Director Nomination Right shall resign from the Board upon the termination of the Director Nomination Right pursuant to which he or she was nominated; and (ii) paragraph (i) would apply also to MOL in the event that MOL would have the right to exercise the Director Nomination Right. In the event that the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee determines in its good faith reasonable judgment that a nominee designated pursuant to the Director Nomination Right is not reasonably acceptable in accordance with the requirements of this Section 2.01(a), then the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee shall provide the Shareholder that designated such nominee a written explanation of the basis for such decision. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee determines in its good faith reasonable judgment that a nominee designated pursuant to the Director Nomination Right is not reasonably acceptable in accordance with the requirements of this Section 2.01(a), then the Shareholder that designated such nominee shall be entitled to designate another nominee to serve on the Board.

(b) The initial director nominations shall be made not later than the Completion Date, and, with respect to such initial nominations meeting the requirements set forth in this Section 2.01, the Company and the Board shall cause such nominee(s) to be promptly appointed to the Board to serve until the completion of such director’s term or earlier resignation (including resignation in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.01(b) or removal, provided however, that if an initial director nomination is not made by the Completion Date, such Shareholder having the Director Nomination Right shall have the right to exercise its Director Nomination Right at the next succeeding Nomination Deadline in accordance with this Section 2.01(b). Following the initial director nomination, the Company shall not give or send to its shareholders any notice of any meeting of shareholders at which a Shareholder is eligible to exercise its Director Nomination Right prior to the Nomination Deadline with respect to such meeting and shall include in such notice any nominee designated for appointment, election or re-election to the Board of which a Shareholder exercising the Director Nomination Right notifies the Company in writing not later than the Nomination Deadline, together with all information concerning such nominee reasonably requested by the Company, and upon the designation of a nominee for appointment made by each Nomination Deadline during the Director Nomination Right Period meeting the requirements set forth in this Section 2.01, the Company and the Board shall cause such nominee to be nominated by or at the direction of the Board (or any duly authorized committee thereof) and to be recommended for election at the annual meeting of shareholders for such fiscal year (or such other meeting of the shareholders of the Company convened for the election of directors) and, to the extent necessary, the Company shall solicit the votes of other shareholders of Common Stock in favor of the election of the Shareholder nominees to ensure their election to the Board. If for any individual fiscal year during the Director Nomination Right Period the Director Nomination Right is not exercised by a Shareholder, such Shareholder shall not forfeit their Director Nomination Right and may exercise such right during any successive fiscal year during the Director Nomination Right Period. The Board shall, in its sole discretion (acting reasonably) and in accordance with the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws, determine the classification assignment of any Director so appointed or elected. For the avoidance of doubt, the second, third, fourth and fifth paragraphs of Article III, Section 3 of the Bylaws do not apply to the Director Nomination Right, and the Director Nomination Right shall be deemed a nomination by the Board pursuant to clause (a) of the first paragraph of Article III, Section 3 of the Bylaws.

(c) During the Director Nomination Right Period, upon the death, resignation, retirement, disqualification or removal from office (for any reason) of any Shareholder Director, the Shareholder nominating such Shareholder Director shall have the right to designate any replacement for such Shareholder Director, subject to, and in accordance with, the Director Nomination Right provided in Section 2.01(a). For the avoidance of doubt, any Director Nomination Right exercised pursuant to this Section 2.01(c) shall not be subject to the notice timing provisions of the preceding section, and promptly following receipt of written notice of any designated replacement for such Shareholder Director, the Board shall appoint such designee to serve on the Board in the class of Directors previously including such former Shareholder Director.

(d) In the event that the Board (or a committee thereof) relies on Section 2.01(a) or Section 2.04 to exclude a nominee selected by a Shareholder pursuant to the Director Nomination Right from management’s slate of nominees (or otherwise takes adverse action with respect to any such Shareholder nominee, including failing to recommend the election of such Shareholder nominee), the Board (or such committee thereof) shall afford the applicable Shareholder a reasonable opportunity to select a replacement nominee for inclusion on management’s slate of nominees.

(e) During the Director Nomination Right Period, the Company agrees that a Shareholder Director shall be entitled to the same rights, privileges and compensation applicable to all non-executive Directors generally or to which all such non-executive Directors are entitled, including any rights with respect to indemnification arrangements, directors and officers insurance coverage and other similar protections and expense reimbursement.

(g) The Board (or any committee thereof) shall have the right to nominate for election the remaining Directors that a Shareholder is not entitled to designate or nominate pursuant to Section 2.01(a).

(h) The Company, in accordance with Article I of the Articles of Incorporation, shall as of the Completion Date, establish the number of directors constituting the entire Board at ten (10), and neither the Company nor the Board shall take any action to increase the size of the Board to greater than ten (10) Directors during the Director Nomination Right Period without the affirmative vote of each Director nominated by a Shareholder pursuant to Section 2.01(a) of this Agreement, provided that nothing contained herein shall prevent from the Company from decreasing the size of the Board to below ten (10) Directors; provided that such decrease does not affect the tenure, term or other rights to serve as a member of the Board of any person nominated by a Shareholder to serve on the Board in accordance with Agreement.

Section 2.02 Voting.

Until the expiration of the Director Nomination Right Period, in connection with any proposal submitted for the approval of the Company’s shareholders (including at any annual or special meeting or in connection with any other action, including the execution of written consents to the extent applicable) each of the Shareholders and SSH shall, and shall cause each of their respective Affiliates to (i) cause all of the shares of the Voting Stock held, directly or indirectly, by them to be present or represented by proxy at all Company shareholder meetings for purposes of establishing a quorum and (ii) vote all such shares of Voting Stock in accordance with the recommendations of the Board (or any committee thereof) with respect to (A) the appointment of any Director recommended by the Board or any committee thereof (whether or not any such Director is a Shareholder Director or Shareholder Director nominee); provided that the number of Directors related to SSH or its Affiliates (including any director, officer, employee or agent of SSH or any of its Affiliates, and any of their respective family members), shall not exceed two (2) Directors at any given time and (B) the shareholder approval of an amendment to the Articles of Incorporation to provide for an increase in the authorized share capital of the Company, which approval has been recommended by a majority of the Directors (excluding the Directors related to SSH or its Affiliates and the Directors related to any Shareholder or its Affiliates); provided that this obligation shall apply to each Shareholder only at such time as such Shareholder is entitled pursuant to Section 2.01 to nominate at least one (1) Director to the Board. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the obligations set forth in this Section 2.02 shall not apply to any Shareholder from and after the time that such Shareholder ceases to beneficially own at least 2,500,000 shares of Common Stock of the Company.

Section 2.03 Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws.

The Board shall take or cause to be taken all lawful action necessary to ensure at all times that the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws are not at any time inconsistent in any material respect with the provisions of this Agreement.

Section 2.04 Fiduciary Duties.

(a) Nothing in this Article II shall be deemed to require the Board or any committee or member thereof to take any action or refrain from taking any action, if the Board, such committee or member determines in good faith that taking such action or refraining from taking such action, as the case may be, would cause a violation of his or her fiduciary duties to other shareholders of the Company, including the Shareholders, under applicable Law.

(b) The Board shall owe the same fiduciary duties to each Shareholder, to the extent such Shareholder is a holder of Common Stock, as it owes to the other holders of Common Stock.

Section 2.05 Change in Law.

In the event any Law comes into force or effect (including by amendment) which conflicts with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to revise the Agreement to achieve the parties’ intention set forth herein.

Each Shareholder will be entitled to purchase all or part of such Covered Securities at the same price and on the same terms as such Covered Securities are sold by the Company pursuant to this Section 3.01; provided, however, that in the event of the sale of Covered Securities by the Company in a public offering pursuant to registration statement under the Securities Act, the Shareholders will not be entitled to receive Covered Securities in the registered offering, but will be issued restricted securities within the meaning of Rule 144 under the Securities Act in a concurrent private placement unless otherwise permitted in accordance with applicable U.S. federal securities laws in the reasonable determination of the Company.

(b) For purposes of this Article III, Covered Securities shall not include shares of Common Stock or securities convertible into shares of Common Stock that are issued or sold (i) pursuant to duly adopted equity incentive plan of the Company, (ii) as a dividend on the outstanding shares of Common Stock, (iii) in any transaction in respect of a security available to all holders of such security on a pro rata basis, (iv) as consideration for the acquisition of all or any substantial portion of the assets or all or any portion of the capital stock of any Person or that are otherwise issued in connection with any merger or other business combination; provided that any such transaction is approved by the Board, or (v) as consideration for the acquisition by the Company of any other asset for business; provided that any such acquisition is approved by the Board.

(c) The Company will cause to be given to each of the Shareholders entitled to purchase Covered Securities pursuant to this Article III (an “Entitled Shareholder”), either through (1) a written notice or (2) through providing verbal notice to the Shareholder Directors, or to the Entitled Shareholders’ contact (as the case may be), with information contained in this paragraph.

As promptly as reasonably practicable after the Company evaluates a potential issuance or sale of Covered Securities, the Company shall provide a notice (the “Initial Notice”) of (i) the anticipated type of Covered Securities anticipated to be issued, (ii) the anticipated issuance date, and (iii) the anticipated size, in gross proceeds of United States Dollars, not including any upsize, downsize, or green shoe of such issuance; provided, however, that the delivery of an Initial Notice shall not create any obligation on the part of the Company to issue or sell any security.

As promptly as reasonably practicable after the Company determines to issue Covered Securities (such determination to be made no later than the first organizational call with underwriters and/or placement agents and/or bookrunners (the “Org. Call”)), and, in any event, every seven (7) days after an Org. Call, the Company will cause to be given to each Entitled Shareholder a notice (the “Approximate Notice”) stating the information under (i), (ii) and (iii) above and which may be different than the information stated in the Initial Notice. Under no circumstances shall the Approximate Notice be given less than seven (7) days prior to the issuance of Covered Securities.

As promptly as reasonably practicable after the Company determines to launch an offering of Covered Securities (such determination being not later than the “Go/No Go Call” with underwriters and/or placement agents and/or bookrunners), the Company will cause to give to each of the Entitled Shareholders a notice (the “Definite Notice”) with the information under (i), (ii) and (iii) above and which may be different than the information stated in the Initial Notice and/or the Approximate Notice. In addition, the Definite Notice will include (a) the order deadline, and (b) the contact details of the underwriter representative to whom such orders shall be submitted. For the purposes of this paragraph, the order deadline shall be 4:00 pm New York the same day as the Go/No Go Call.

(d) Approval by a majority of the disinterested Directors will be required prior to the issuance or sale to (i) SSH or any of their respective Affiliates, or any of their respective directors, officers or employees (including any family members of the foregoing), or (ii) to any Shareholder or its Affiliates (other than an issuance or sale of Covered Securities to a Shareholder pursuant to Section 3.01(a), (b) and (c)) of any equity securities of the Company, or of securities convertible into or exercisable for equity securities of the Company, in any transaction or series of related transactions.

Article II
REGISTRATION

Section 2.1 Registration.

(a) In accordance with the requirements of Section 2.4 below, the Company shall file with the Commission, and use its commercially reasonable best efforts to cause to be declared effective by the Commission as soon as practicable after the filing thereof, a registration statement on the applicable Commission form with respect to the resale from time to time, whether underwritten or otherwise, of all of the Registrable Securities by the Holders thereof, including a Plan of Distribution in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A. If any Holder of Registrable Securities subsequently proposes to sell such Registrable Securities in a transaction not covered by the Plan of Distribution, the Company shall file a supplement or amendment to update the Plan of Distribution section to cover such intended means of distribution. The Company shall also use its commercially reasonable best efforts to maintain the effectiveness of the registration effected pursuant to this Section 2.1, to supplement and amend the registration statement to the extent necessary to ensure that such registration statement is available or, if not available, that another registration statement is available, for the resale of all the Registrable Securities by the Holders and to keep such registration statement free of any material misstatements or omissions at all times, subject only to the limitations on effectiveness set forth below. If at any time a registration statement filed pursuant to this Section 2.1 is not effective or is not otherwise available for the resale of all the Registrable Securities by the Holders, the Holders (or any of them) may demand registration under the Securities Act of all or part of their Registrable Securities at any time and from time to time, and the Company shall file with the Commission following receipt of any such demand one or more registration statements with respect to all such Registrable Securities and use its commercially reasonable best efforts to cause such registration statement to be declared effective by the Commission as soon as practicable after the filing thereof. The registration contemplated by this Section 2.1 is referred to herein as the “Mandatory Registration.” The Mandatory Registration shall be filed with the Commission in accordance with and pursuant to Rule 415 promulgated under the Securities Act (or any successor rule then in effect) (a “Shelf Registration”). The Company shall use its commercially reasonable best efforts to cause the registration statement filed on Form F-3 or any similar short-form registration as the Company may elect to remain effective until such date (the “Shelf Termination Date”) as is the earlier of (i) the date on which all Registrable Securities included in the registration statement shall have been sold or shall have otherwise ceased to be Registrable Securities, and (ii) the date on which all remaining Registrable Securities may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 and otherwise without restriction or limitation pursuant to Rule 144 (or any successor thereto) under the Securities Act, after taking into account any Holder’s status as an Affiliate of the Company as determined by counsel to the Company pursuant to a written opinion letter addressed to the Company’s transfer agent to such effect. If the Company is not then eligible to register for resale the Registrable Securities on Form F-3, such registration shall be on another appropriate form in accordance herewith. In the event the Mandatory Registration must be effected on Form F-1 or any similar long-form registration as the Company may elect, the Company shall file such registration statement as a Shelf Registration and the Company shall use its commercially reasonable best efforts to have such registration statement become effective as soon as possible after filing and to keep such registration statement current and effective, including by filing periodic post-effective amendments to update the financial statements contained in such registration statement in accordance with Regulation S-X promulgated under the Securities Act until the Shelf Termination Date. By 9:30 a.m. on the Trading Day immediately following the effective date of the applicable registration statement, the Company shall file with the Commission in accordance with Rule 424 under the Securities Act the final prospectus to be used in connection with sales pursuant to such registration statement.

(b) If, (i) as a result of applicable law or based upon comments received by the Commission, all of the securities to be included in the registration statement for any registration initiated on behalf of the Holders pursuant to Section 2.1(a) cannot be so included, or (ii) the registration statement for any registration initiated on behalf of the Holders pursuant to Section 2.1(a) relates to the offering of Registrable Securities in an underwritten offering, and the managing underwriters advise the Company in writing that in their opinion the number of securities requested to be included in such registration exceeds the number which can be sold in such offering without having an adverse effect on such offering, then the Company shall include in such registration (x) first, such number of Registrable Securities requested to be included therein (allocated pro rata among the Holders based on the relative number of such Registrable Securities then held by each such Holder or in such manner as they may otherwise agree); (y) second, the securities that the Company desires to sell; and (z) third, the securities proposed to be sold in such registration by holders of securities other than the Registrable Securities.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, in the event the Company shall furnish to the Sellers a certificate signed by the Chief Executive Officer of the Company stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company, it would be detrimental to the Company or the current or planned operations, business or financing opportunities of the Company for a Mandatory Registration or Shelf Registration to be effected or maintained at such time, in which event the Company shall have the right to defer the filing of, decline to maintain, or terminate the effectiveness of the Mandatory Registration or Shelf Registration for a reasonable period of time of not more than forty-five (45) days after the date of such certificate under this Section 2.1(c); provided, however, that the Company shall not utilize this right more than once in any six-month period.

Section 2.2 Piggyback Registration.

(a) If, at any time, the Company proposes to register any of its Common Shares under the Securities Act (other than a registration statement on Form S-8 or on Form F-4 or any similar successor forms thereto or in connection with (A) an employee stock option, stock purchase or compensation plan or securities issued or issuable pursuant to any such plan, (B) a dividend reinvestment plan or (C) a merger or the acquisition of the securities or substantially all the assets of another entity), whether for its own account or for the account of one or more shareholders of the Company, and the registration form to be used may be used for any registration of Registrable Securities (a “Piggyback Registration”), the Company shall give prompt written notice to all Holders of its intention to effect such a registration and shall, subject to Sections 2.2(b) and (c), include in such registration all such Registrable Securities with respect to which the Company has received written requests for inclusion therein within fifteen (15) Business Days after the delivery of the Company’s notice. The Company may postpone or withdraw the filing or the effectiveness of a Piggyback Registration at any time in its sole discretion.

(b) If, (i) as a result of applicable law or based upon comments received by the Commission, all of the securities to be included in the registration statement for any Piggyback Registration initiated as a primary registration on behalf of the Company, cannot be so included, or (ii) a Piggyback Registration is an underwritten primary registration on behalf of the Company, and the managing underwriters advise the Company in writing that in their opinion the number of securities requested to be included in such registration exceeds the number which can be sold in such offering without having an adverse effect on such offering, then the Company shall include in such registration statement (x) first, the securities the Company proposes to sell, and (y) second, the Registrable Securities and other securities requested to be included therein by the Holders and the holders of such other securities (the “Other Holders”), if any, pro rata among the Holders and the Other Holders on the basis of the number of shares requested to be registered by the Holders and the Other Holders.

(c) If, (i) as a result of applicable law or based upon comments received by the Commission, all of the securities to be included in the registration statement for any Piggyback Registration initiated as a secondary registration on behalf of a holder of the Company’s securities other than Registrable Securities, cannot be so included or (ii) a Piggyback Registration is an underwritten secondary registration on behalf of a holder of the Company’s securities other than Registrable Securities, and the managing underwriters advise the Company in writing that, in their opinion, the number of securities requested to be included in such registration statement exceeds the number which can be sold in such offering without having an adverse effect on such offering, the Company shall include in such registration (x) first, the Registrable Securities and other securities requested to be included therein by the Holders and the Other Holders, if any, pro rata among the Holders and the Other Holders on the basis of the number of shares requested to be registered by the Holders and the Other Holders, and (y) second, the securities the Company proposes to sell, if any.

Section 2.3 Expenses of Registration. All Registration Expenses incurred in connection with any registration, qualification or compliance of the Registrable Securities hereunder shall be borne by the Company. All Selling Expenses incurred in connection with any registrations hereunder or sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such registration shall be borne by the Holders or the Holder of the Registrable Securities so registered.

Section 2.4 Additional Obligations of the Company. The Company shall:

(a) As soon as practicable after the Closing Date, but in any event no later than 60 days prior to the expiration of the Lock-up Period, prepare and file with the Commission a registration statement on Form F-3 (or on Form F-1, if the Company is not then eligible to use Form F-3), and all amendments and supplements thereto and related prospectuses as may be necessary to comply with applicable securities laws, with respect to such Registrable Securities. The Company shall use its best efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective within sixty (60) days after the date of filing of such registration statement (provided that at least five (5) Trading Days before filing a registration statement or prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto, the Company shall furnish to each of the Holders of the Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement copies of all such documents proposed to be filed, and the Company shall in good faith consider any reasonable comments of such Holders or their counsel).

(b) Promptly notify the Holders (i) when the Company has been notified by the Commission whether or not a registration statement or any amendment thereto will be subject to a review by the Commission and (ii) if reviewed, when the Company has been notified by the Commission that a registration statement or amendment thereto will not be subject to further review. Upon the request of a Holder, the Company shall provide such Holder true and complete copies of all correspondence from and to the Commission relating to a registration statement (with all material, non-public information regarding the Company redacted from such copies). The Company shall respond as promptly as reasonably practicable to any comments received from the Commission with respect to the registration statement or any amendments thereto. The Company shall promptly file with the Commission a request for acceleration of effectiveness in accordance with Rule 461 promulgated under the Securities Act after the Company is notified (orally or in writing, whichever is earlier) by the Commission that a registration statement will not be reviewed, or will not be subject to further review, such that the registration statement shall be declared effective no later than seven (7) Trading Days after such notification.

(c) Furnish to the Holders such number of copies of a prospectus, including a preliminary prospectus, in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act, and such other documents as they may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of Registrable Securities owned by them.

(d) Use its commercially reasonable best efforts to register and qualify the securities covered by such registration statement under such other securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as shall be reasonably requested by the Holders unless an exemption from registration and qualification exists; provided that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to qualify to do business, file a general consent to service of process or subject itself to general taxation in any such states or jurisdictions.

(e) In the event of any underwritten public offering, enter into and perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement, in usual and customary form, with the managing underwriter(s) of such offering. Each Holder participating in such underwriting shall also enter into and perform its obligations under such an agreement.

(f) Promptly notify each Holder of Registrable Securities covered by the registration statement at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act of the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included in such registration statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances then existing (provided that in no event shall such notice contain any material, non-public information regarding the Company) and, the Company shall promptly prepare and furnish to each such Holder a reasonable number of copies of a supplement or amendment to such prospectus so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such Registrable Securities, such prospectus shall not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances under which they were made.

(g) Use its commercially reasonable best efforts to furnish, on the date that such Registrable Securities are delivered to the underwriters for sale, if such securities are being sold through underwriters, (i) an opinion, dated as of such date, of the counsel representing the Company for the purposes of such registration, in form and substance as is customarily given to underwriters in an underwritten public offering, addressed to the underwriters, if any, and (ii) a letter dated as of such date, from the independent registered public accountants of the Company, in form and substance as is customarily given by independent registered public accountants to underwriters in an underwritten public offering addressed to the underwriters.

(h) Use its commercially reasonable best efforts to (i) prevent the issuance of any stop order or other suspension of effectiveness of a registration statement, or the suspension of the qualification of any of the Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction in the United States, and (ii) in the event of the issuance of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of a registration statement, or any order suspending or preventing the use of any related prospectus or suspending the qualification of any equity securities included in such registration statement for sale in any jurisdiction, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable best efforts promptly to obtain the withdrawal of such order.

(i) Cooperate with the Holders who hold Registrable Securities being offered and, to the extent applicable, facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates (not bearing any restrictive legend) representing the Registrable Securities to be offered pursuant to a Registration Statement and enable such certificates to be in such denominations or amounts, as the case may be, as the Holders may reasonably request and, registered in such names as the Holders may request.

(j) Provide and cause to be maintained a registrar and transfer agent for all Registrable Securities covered by any registration statement from and after a date not later than the effective date of such registration statement.

(k) Use its reasonable best efforts to cause such Registrable Securities to be listed on the New York Stock Exchange and each other securities exchange on which the Common Stock is then listed or quoted; or, if the Common Stock is not then listed, on the New York Stock Exchange, the NASDAQ Global Select Market, the NASDAQ Global Market or the NASDAQ Capital Market.

(l) Use its commercially reasonable best efforts to maintain eligibility to use Form F-3 (or any successor form thereto) for the registration of the resale of the Registrable Securities.

(m) Not, nor shall it permit any subsidiary or affiliate of the Company to, identify any Holder as an underwriter in any public disclosure or filing with the Commission without the Holder’s written consent, and any Holder being deemed an underwriter by the Commission shall not relieve the Company of any obligations it has under this Agreement or any other transaction document contemplated by the Plan.

(n) Notify each Holder who holds Registrable Securities covered by the registration statement of (i) the expected effective date of the registration statement; (ii) the effectiveness on the actual effective date thereof; and (iii) the issuance of any “stop order” or order preventing or suspending the use of any prospectus relating to the Registrable Securities.

(o) Use best efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the Commission under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act.

(p) Cooperate with any registered broker dealer that is required to make a filing with FINRA pursuant to FINRA Rule 5110 in connection with the resale of any Registrable Securities by any Holder.

Section 2.5 Suspension of Sales. Upon receipt of written notice from the Company that the registration statement or a prospectus contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading (a “Misstatement”), each Holder of Registrable Securities shall forthwith discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities until such Holder has received copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus that corrects such Misstatement, or until such Holder is advised in writing by the Company that the use of the prospectus may be resumed, and, if so directed by the Company, such Holder shall deliver to the Company all copies, other than permanent file copies then in such Holder’s possession, of the prospectus covering such Registrable Securities current at the time of receipt of such notice. The Company shall promptly amend or supplement any such prospectus (including, if applicable, by filing a report under the Exchange Act) as promptly as possible to remedy any such Misstatement. The Company will not suspend the sales under the prospectus more than two times in any three hundred-sixty-five (365) day period and the total number of days that such suspensions may be in effect in any three hundred-sixty-five (365) day period shall not exceed 90 days in the aggregate.

Section 2.6 Termination of Registration Rights. A Holder’s registration rights shall expire at such time as all Registrable Securities held by such Holder (and its Affiliates) may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 without the requirement to be in compliance with Rule 144(c)(1) and otherwise without restriction or limitation pursuant to Rule 144 (or any successor thereto) under the Securities Act, after taking into account any Holder’s status as an Affiliate of the Company as reasonably determined by counsel to the Company pursuant to a written opinion letter addressed to the Company’s transfer agent to such effect (provided at least 12 months have lapsed since the Registrable Securities were acquired by the Seller from the Company, as calculated in accordance with Rule 144). Termination of such registration rights shall be conditioned upon the Company’s action to remove the restrictive legends from any Registrable Securities held by such Holder and the reissuance of un-legended certificates, in physical or electronic format, to such Holder prior to the effective termination of the Agreement.

Section 2.7 Furnishing Information. It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Company to take any action pursuant to Section 2.1 or 2.4 that the selling Holders shall furnish to the Company such information regarding themselves, the Registrable Securities held by them and the intended method of disposition of such securities as the Company or its counsel shall reasonably require to effect the registration of their Registrable Securities.

Section 2.8 Indemnification. In the event any Registrable Securities are included in a registration statement under this Section 2:

(a) To the extent permitted by law, the Company will indemnify and hold harmless each Holder, its Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, agents, members, partners and employees and any underwriter (as defined in the Securities Act) for such Holder and each person, if any, who controls such Holder or underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act (each an “Indemnified Party”), against any losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (joint or several) to which they may become subject under the Securities Act, or the Exchange Act or other federal or state law, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any of the following statements, omissions or violations (collectively, a “Violation”): (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in such registration statement, including any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein or any amendments or supplements thereto, (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or (iii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any state securities law or any rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any state securities law in connection with the registration of the Registrable Securities; and the Company will pay to each such Holder, underwriter or controlling person, as accrued any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability, or action; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 2.8(a) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability, or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), nor shall the Company be liable in any such case for any such loss, claim, damage, liability, or action to the extent that it arises out of or is based upon a Violation which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished expressly for use in connection with such registration statement by any such Holder, underwriter or controlling person or any failure of such person to deliver or cause to be delivered a prospectus made available by the Company in a timely manner.

(b) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 2.8 of notice of the commencement of any action (including any governmental action), such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the Company under this Section 2.8, deliver to the Company a written notice of the commencement thereof and the Company shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the Company so desires, assume the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the parties; provided, however, that an indemnified party (together with all other indemnified parties which may be represented without conflict by one counsel) shall have the right to retain one separate counsel, with the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel to be paid by the Company, if (i) the Company shall have failed to assume the defense of such claim within seven (7) days after receipt of notice of the claim and to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party, as the case may be; or (ii) in the reasonable opinion of counsel retained by the Company, representation of such indemnified party by such counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such indemnified party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The indemnified party shall cooperate fully with the Company in connection with any negotiation or defense of any such action or claim by the Company and shall furnish to the Company all information reasonably available to the indemnified party which relates to such action or claim. The Company shall keep the indemnified party reasonably apprised of the status of the defense or any settlement negotiations with respect thereto. The Company shall not be liable for any settlement of any action, claim or proceeding effected without its prior written consent; provided, however, that the Company shall not unreasonably withhold, delay or condition its consent. The failure to deliver written notice to the Company within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action shall not relieve the Company of any liability to the indemnified party under this Section 2.8, except to the extent such failure to give notice has a material adverse effect on the ability of the Company to defend such action.

(c) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 2.8 is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an indemnified party with respect to any loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense referred to therein, then the Company, 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, liability, claim, damage, or expense in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and of the indemnified party on the other in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the Company 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 and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information, and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the amount any Holder will be obligated to contribute pursuant to this Section 2.8(c) will be limited to an amount equal to the per share public offering price (less any underwriting discount and commissions) multiplied by the number of shares of Registrable Securities sold by such Holder pursuant to the registration statement which gives rise to such obligation to contribute (less the aggregate amount of any damages which such Holder has otherwise been required to pay in respect of such loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense or any substantially similar loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense arising from the sale of such Registrable Securities). No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) will be entitled to contribution hereunder from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

(d) The obligations of the Company under this Section 2.8 shall survive the completion of any offering of Registrable Securities in a registration statement under this Section 2, and otherwise. The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this Section are in addition to any liability that the Company may have to each other and are not in diminution or limitation of the indemnification provisions under the Securities Purchase Agreement.

Section 2.9 Assignment of Registration Rights. The rights to cause the Company to register Registrable Securities pursuant to this Agreement may be assigned by a Holder to a transferee or assignee of Registrable Securities to which (a) such transferee is an Affiliate, subsidiary or parent company of such Holder or (b) such transferee is another Holder or an Affiliate, subsidiary or parent company of such other Holder; provided, however, (i) the transferor shall furnish to the Company written notice of the name and address of such transferee or assignee and the securities with respect to which such registration rights are being assigned and (ii) such transferee shall agree to be subject to all restrictions set forth in this Agreement.

Section 2.10 Rule 144 Reporting. With a view to making available to the Holders the benefits of certain rules and regulations of the Commission which may permit the sale of the Registrable Securities to the public without registration, the Company agrees to use its best efforts to:

(a) make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Commission Rule 144 or any similar or analogous rule promulgated under the Securities Act, at all times after the effective date of this Agreement;

(b) file with the Commission, in a timely manner, all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Exchange Act; and

Exhibit A

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

The Selling Shareholders may sell our common shares through underwriters, through agents, to dealers, in private transactions, at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to the prevailing market prices, or at negotiated prices.

In addition, the Selling Shareholders may sell our common shares included in this prospectus through:

a block trade in which a broker-dealer may resell a portion of the block, as principal, in order to facilitate the transaction;

purchases by a broker-dealer, as principal, and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;

ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which a broker solicits purchasers; or

trading plans entered into by the Selling Shareholders pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, that are in place at the time of an offering pursuant to this prospectus and any applicable prospectus supplement hereto that provide for periodic sales of their securities on the basis of parameters described in such trading plans.

In addition, the Selling Shareholders may enter into option or other types of transactions that require us or them to deliver our securities to a broker-dealer, who will then resell or transfer the securities under this prospectus. The Selling Shareholders may enter into hedging transactions with respect to our securities. For example, any Selling Shareholders may:

enter into transactions involving short sales of our common shares by broker-dealers;

sell common shares short and deliver the shares to close out short positions;

enter into option or other types of transactions that require the Selling Shareholders to deliver common shares to a broker-dealer, who will then resell or transfer the common shares under this prospectus; or

loan or pledge the common shares to a broker-dealer, who may sell the loaned shares or, in the event of default, sell the pledged shares.

The Selling Shareholders may enter into derivative transactions with third parties, or sell securities not covered by this prospectus to third parties in privately negotiated transactions. If the applicable prospectus supplement indicates, in connection with those derivatives, the third parties may sell securities covered by this prospectus and the applicable prospectus supplement, including in short sale transactions. If so, the third party may use securities pledged by the Selling Shareholders or borrowed from the Selling Shareholders or others to settle those sales or to close out any related open borrowings of stock, and may use securities received from the Selling Shareholders in settlement of those derivatives to close out any related open borrowings of stock. The third party in such sale transactions will be an underwriter and will be identified in the applicable prospectus supplement (or a post-effective amendment). In addition, the Selling Shareholders may otherwise loan or pledge securities to a financial institution or other third party that in turn may sell the securities short using this prospectus. Such financial institution or other third party may transfer its economic short position to investors in our securities or in connection with a concurrent offering of other securities.

Exhibit A

The Selling Shareholders and any broker-dealers or other persons acting on our behalf or on the behalf of the Selling Shareholders that participate with the Selling Shareholders in the distribution of the securities may be deemed to be underwriters and any commissions received or profit realized by them on the resale of the securities may be deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act. As a result, we have informed the Selling Shareholders, that Regulation M, promulgated under the Exchange Act, may apply to sales by the Selling Shareholders in the market. The Selling Shareholders may agree to indemnify any broker, dealer or agent that participates in transactions involving the sale of our common shares against certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act.

At the time that any particular offering of securities is made, to the extent required by the Securities Act, a prospectus supplement will be distributed, setting forth the terms of the offering, including the aggregate number of securities being offered, the purchase price of the securities, the initial offering price of the securities, the names of any underwriters, dealers or agents, any discounts, commissions and other items constituting compensation from us and any discounts, commissions or concessions allowed or re-allowed or paid to dealers. Furthermore, the Selling Shareholders may agree, subject to certain exemptions, that for a certain period from the date of the prospectus supplement under which the securities are offered, they will not, without the prior written consent of an underwriter, offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge or otherwise dispose of any of our common shares or any securities convertible into or exchangeable for our common shares. However, an underwriter, in its sole discretion, may release any of the securities subject to these lock-up agreements at any time without notice. We expect an underwriter to exclude from these lock-up agreements securities exercised and/or sold pursuant to trading plans entered into by any selling shareholder pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act, that are in place at the time of an offering pursuant to this prospectus and any applicable prospectus supplement hereto that provide for periodic sales of the Selling Shareholders’ securities on the basis of parameters described in such trading plans.

Underwriters or agents could make sales in privately negotiated transactions and/or any other method permitted by law, including sales deemed to be an at-the-market offering as defined in Rule 415 promulgated under the Securities Act, which includes sales made directly on or through the New York Stock Exchange, the existing trading market for our common shares, or sales made to or through a market maker other than on an exchange.

Exhibit A

As a result of requirements of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, or FINRA, formerly the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., the maximum commission or discount to be received by any FINRA member or independent broker/dealer may not be greater than eight percent (8%) of the gross proceeds received by the Selling Shareholders for the sale of any securities being registered pursuant to Rule 415 promulgated by the Commission under the Securities Act. If more than 5% of the net proceeds of any offering of common shares made under this prospectus will be received by a FINRA member participating in the offering or affiliates or associated persons of such a FINRA member, the offering will be conducted in accordance with FINRA Rule 5121.

ii.

Each of the Company and the Holder acknowledges that a breach or threatened breach by such party of any of its obligations under this Warrant would give rise to irreparable harm to the other party hereto for which monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy and hereby agrees that in the event of a breach or a threatened breach by such party of any such obligations, the other party hereto shall, in addition to any and all other rights and remedies that may be available to it in respect of such breach, be entitled to equitable relief, including a restraining order, an injunction, specific performance and any other relief that may be available from a court of competent jurisdiction.

No waiver by any party shall operate or be construed as a waiver in respect of any failure, breach or default not expressly identified by such written waiver, whether of a similar or different character, and whether occurring before or after that waiver. No failure to exercise, or delay in exercising, any rights, remedy, power or privilege arising from this Warrant shall operate or be construed as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege.

17. Severability. If any term or provision of this Warrant is invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other term or provision of this Warrant or invalidate or render unenforceable such term or provision in any other jurisdiction.

18. Governing Law. This Warrant shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of laws of any jurisdiction other than those of the State of New York.

19. Submission to Jurisdiction. Any legal suit, action or proceeding arising out of or based upon this Warrant or the transactions contemplated hereby may be instituted in the federal courts of the United States of America or the courts of the State of New York in each case located in the city of New York and County of Manhattan, and each party irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts in any such suit, action or proceeding. Service of process, summons, notice or other document by certified or registered mail to such party’s address set forth herein shall be effective service of process for any suit, action or other proceeding brought in any such court. The parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally waive any objection to the laying of venue of any suit, action or any proceeding in such courts and irrevocably waive and agree not to plead or claim in any such court that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

20. Waiver of Jury Trial. Each party hereto acknowledges and agrees that any controversy which may arise under this Warrant is likely to involve complicated and difficult issues and, therefore, each such party irrevocably and unconditionally waives any right it may have to a trial by jury in respect of any legal action arising out of or relating to this Warrant or the transactions contemplated hereby.
