(d)                     repayment in whole or in part of the additional funding in accordance with Article 4.2 (b) hereof shall only be made out of funds available to the Company, which are not required for the repayment of principal or the payment of interest in respect of the Shareholders Loans referred to in Article 4.1 hereof  or any expenses incurred in operating the Ship;

 

(e)                         if a Shareholder or its affiliate fails to make funds available in the amount or at the time specified pursuant to Articles 4.1 or 4.2 hereof, then, without prejudice to any other rights of the other Shareholder, the other Shareholder may advance the amount in question to the Company, on behalf of the defaulting Shareholder (and the amount in question shall be deemed to be a debt due from the defaulting Shareholder to the Shareholder who made the additional funds available). Such Shareholder shall be entitled to recover the amount so advanced from the defaulting Shareholder as a debt repayable upon demand together with interest thereon at the rate of ***** per cent (*****%) per month (both before and after judgment) from the date of such advance to the date of actual repayment, together with all accrued interest.  For the avoidance of doubt such interest shall be payable only by the defaulting Shareholder and not by the Company.

 

4.3.                            Unless otherwise agreed by all Shareholders, no dividend shall be payable by the Company unless and until all Shareholders Loans under Article 4.1 and 4.2 hereof for the time being outstanding have been repaid in full by the Company.

 

4.4.                            If for any reason whatsoever GKFF fails to make available the GKFF Loan as and

 

12











 

when provided herein and/or if for any reason whatsoever the Charterer fails to prepay hire in accordance with Article 8.11 of the Charter and the Charter Guarantor fails to pay under the Charter Guarantee, DSME 2237 shall make available to the Company a loan in such amount and at such time as the GKFF Loan and/or the Prepaid Hire were due but not paid, and on conditions not less favourable to the Company than those applicable to the GKFF Loan or the Prepaid Hire (as the case may be).  Any such loan shall be deemed to be a Shareholders Loan made by DSME 2237.

 

Repayment in whole or in part of any loans made available in accordance with this Article 4.4 shall be secured by second priority security as provided in Article 4.1(e) hereof if and to the extent that such loans are made to remedy a default of GKFF in making available the GKFF Loan, by third priority security as provided in Article 4.1(e) hereof if and to the extent that such loans are made to remedy a default of the Charter Guarantor in paying under the Charter Guarantee, and shall only be made out of funds available to the Company after repayment of all principal and interest due in respect of the Exmar Loans and the GKFF Loan and payment of all expenses incurred in operating the Ship.

 

ARTICLE 5 — PREEMPTIVE RIGHT

 

5.1.                           The Shares are transferable only in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. A transfer of Shares by Exmar in accordance with this Agreement shall necessarily involve a transfer to the same transferee of all Shares held by Exmar and all Shareholders Loans made by Exmar. A transfer of Shares by DSME 2237 in accordance with this Agreement shall necessarily involve a transfer to the same transferee of all Shares held by DSME 2237 and the GKFF Loan and all Shareholders Loans made by DSME 2237 (for the purpose of Articles 5, 8.3, 8.4, 9.2, 10 and 14 hereof the GKFF Loan shall be deemed to be a Shareholders Loan of DSME 2237). In the event a Shareholder (the “Transferor”) intends to transfer its Shares (the “Offered Shares”) to another person (the “Candidate Transferee”), it shall first give written notice of such intention (the “Transfer Notice”) to the Board and the other Shareholder in order to enable the other Shareholder to exercise its pre-emptive right on such Offered Shares in accordance with the procedure set forth in this Article 5 (the “Pre-emptive Right”).

 

5.2.                            The Transfer Notice shall specify:

 

(a)                               the number of Offered Shares the Transferor wishes to transfer, being all Shares held by the Transferor;

 

(b)                                 the identification details of the Candidate Transferee (which Candidate Transferee must be ready, willing, able, and legally obligated to acquire the Offered Shares at the price and on the terms and conditions set forth in the Transfer Notice), such as, for natural persons, the name, address of domicile,

nationality and profession, and for legal entities, the legal form, address of registered office or business seat, jurisdiction of incorporation or organisation, as well as the ultimate owner or parent of such entity;

 

(c)                                 the bona fide price (stated in US dollars) the Candidate Transferee wishes to pay for the Offered Shares and the Shareholders Loans (the “Purchase Price”); and

 

(d)                                the other terms and conditions upon which the Offered Shares and the Shareholders Loans would be transferred.

 

The Pre-emptive Right must be exercised with respect to all of the Offered Shares and the Shareholders Loans and cannot be exercised with respect to only a portion of the Offered Shares and the Shareholders Loans.

 

The other Shareholder which wishes to acquire all of the Offered Shares and the Shareholders Loans (the “Purchasing Shareholder”) shall, within 30 calendar days of the date of the Transfer Notice, so notify the Board.

 

5.3.                           Contrary to Article 1583 of the Belgian Civil Code, legal title to the Offered Shares shall only be transferred upon payment of the Purchase Price by the Purchasing Shareholder. The Purchase Price shall be paid and legal title to the Offered Shares shall be transferred within ***** days following the date of the notice by the Purchasing Shareholder that it wishes to purchase the Offered Shares at the Purchase Price.

 

5.4.                           In the event that the Pre-emptive Right has not been exercised on all of the Offered Shares and the Shareholders Loans within the above mentioned period of ***** days of the date of the Transfer Notice, the Board shall inform the Transferor thereof within ***** days following the expiry date of the above mentioned ***** days period (the “Board Notice”). The Transferor shall then be entitled to effect the proposed transfer in accordance with the Transfer Notice. In case the Transferor has not effected such transfer within a period of ***** days as from the date of the Board Notice, the procedures as set out in this Article 5 must again be followed for the transfer of the Offered Shares and the Shareholders Loans.

 

5.5.                           The Pre-emptive Right of the Shareholders as laid down in Articles 5.1 through 5.4 above shall not apply to:

 

(i) any transfer of Shares to an affiliate (including a partnership, trust or fund) belonging to the group of the Transferor, provided that at the same time its rights and obligations under this Agreement are assigned to such transferee and provided that such transferee covenants in favor of the other Parties to this Agreement to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement including this Article in such manner and to such extent as such other Parties may require, and to sell its Shares back to a member of the group of the

Transferor if the transferee ceases to be a member of that group, and such transferee shall, as from the date of such transfer, be treated as a Shareholder for all the purposes of this Agreement; and

 

(ii) any transfer of Shares in connection with the enforcement of a right of pledge on the Shares, provided that at the same time the rights and obligations of the Transferor are assigned to the transferee and provided that such transferee covenants in favor of the other Parties to this Agreement to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement including this Article in such manner and to such extent as such other Parties may require and such transferee shall, as from the date of such transfer, be treated as a Shareholder for all the purposes of this Agreement.

 

5.6.                            Any transfer of Shares by the Shareholders will only be permitted provided that the Transferor at the same time assigns its rights and obligations under this Agreement to such transferee and provided that such transferee covenants in favor of the other Parties to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement. If, notwithstanding the foregoing, a transferee becomes registered as a shareholder of the Company without agreeing to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Shareholder which transferred the Shares so registered shall, until such an agreement is executed, be deemed to be the holder of such Shares for all the purposes of this Agreement.

 

5.7.                            Any transfer of Shares in violation of the provisions of this Article 5 shall be null and void and shall be without any effect vis-à-vis the Company.

 

ARTICLE 6 — TAG ALONG RIGHT

 

6.1.                            Without prejudice and subject to the provisions of Article 5, if a Shareholder (“Transferring Shareholder”) intends to transfer Shares to a third party, the other Shareholder (“Other Shareholder”) may demand that such third party extends its offer to the Other Shareholder in order for the Other Shareholder to transfer all (and not just a part of) his Shares and Shareholders Loans to such third party (the “Tag-along Right”) simultaneously with the transfer of the Shares and Shareholders Loans of the Transferring Shareholder to the said third party.

 

6.2.                            If the Other Shareholder wishes to exercise his Tag-along Right, he shall, within ***** days of the date of the Transfer Notice, mentioned under Article 5.1. above, so notify the Transferring Shareholder and the Board.  The Transferring Shareholder shall use its best efforts in order that the third party concerned extends its offer to all the Shares offered by the Other Shareholder.

 

6.3.                            If the third party concerned, notwithstanding the best efforts of the Transferring Shareholder, refuses to purchase the Shares and the Shareholders Loans of the Transferring Shareholder and the Other Shareholder at the same time, the Transferring

 

15











 

Shareholder shall not be entitled to sell its Shares to such third party and shall be entitled to invoke the dead lock procedure of Article 8.3 hereof.

 

6.4.                            The above tag along right shall not apply in case of a sale of the Shares in connection with the enforcement of a security interest on the Shares and in case of a transfer of the Shares to any subsidiary or holding company or other entity (including a partnership, trust or fund) belonging to the group of the Transferor.

 

ARTICLE 7 — CAPITAL INCREASE

 

7.1.                           General Meeting of Shareholders / Authorized Capital

 

A capital increase may be decided upon by the general meeting of shareholders subject to the conditions provided for in the Belgian Company Code or, within the limits of the authorized capital, by the Board subject to the conditions determined by the Belgian Company Code and the general meeting of shareholders, as stipulated in article [5] of the articles of association of the Company.

 

7.2.                           Right of preference

 

In the event of a capital increase in cash, the Shareholders have a right of preference as stated in article 592 of the Belgian Company Code.  This means that shares in the Company to be subscribed in cash shall first be offered to the existing Shareholders in proportion to the number of Shares they detain.  Each of the Shareholders shall have the right, but not the obligation, to exercise its pro rata preferential subscription right and to subscribe to the newly created shares in the Company. The Shareholders shall equally have, at the same terms, a pro rata preferential subscription right with respect to shares in the Company to be subscribed in kind. The general meeting of shareholders shall in that case determine the terms and conditions of the exercise of the pro rata preferential subscription right.

 

ARTICLE 8 - BOARD OF DIRECTORS

 

8.1.                           Nomination of Directors

 

8.1.1.                  The Board shall consist of four (4) members, of whom two (2) shall be elected from among the list of candidates proposed by the holders of the A Shares (the “A Directors”) and two (2) from among the list of candidates proposed by the holders of the B Shares (the “B Directors”).

 

In case of a replacement of a Director or in case of vacancy of a mandate of a Director, the Shareholder that proposed the Director who has to be replaced or whose mandate becomes vacant, shall propose two candidates for election as Director to replace the former Director or to fill in the vacancy of the mandate of the former

 

16











 

Director. The holder of the A Shares shall be entitled to remove any A Director and the holder of the B Shares shall be entitled to remove any B Director.

 

8.1.2.                 Each Shareholder undertakes to vote in the general meeting of Shareholders in favor of the appointment of the Directors in compliance with the provisions of Article 8.1.1.

 

8.1.3.                  The Directors shall perform their mandate without remuneration.

 

8.1.4.                 The chairman of the Board shall be an A Director or B Director on an annual rotating basis.

 

8.2.                           Meetings

 

Meetings of the Board shall be convened by giving to all Directors not less than 7 days written notice (except for exceptional meetings convened in case of emergency in which case a meeting in writing may be called, at which meeting all decisions must be taken by unanimous written consent) of the time and the place of the Board meeting and enclosing the agenda and copies of the supporting papers. Meetings of the Board may be held by videoconference or by telephone conference. Any Director may designate another person (who may or may not be a Director) to represent him at any meeting of the Board.

 

The quorum for meetings of the Board shall be one half in number of the Directors for the time being of the Company provided that both an A Director and a B Director shall be present.

 

Any decision or action, other than:

 

(a)         decisions expressly reserved to the general meeting of shareholders (as provided in Article 9.1 hereof or the Belgian Company Code); or

 

(b)         decisions which the Technical Manager or the Corporate Manager are authorized to take pursuant to the respective management agreements,

 

shall require the approval by a majority of Directors present or represented at a properly convened meeting of the Board, and entitled to vote, always provided a quorum of the relevant Board is present and acting throughout the meeting concerned and provided at least one A Director and one B Director approve the decision or action concerned.

 

8.3.                           Deadlock

 

In case of a tie of votes in the Board, the chairman of the Board shall not have a casting vote.  In case of such a tie of votes or if no decision can be taken because of the absence of a quorum or if no decision can be taken because no A Director or no B

 

17











 

Director approves the decision or action concerned (all, a “Tie”), a second meeting of the Board shall be called within 15 calendar days from the date of the first meeting. The Directors shall in good faith try to find a solution for the issue during the intervening 15 calendar days period. In case no solution is found or no decision can be taken at the second meeting of the Board, each Director will be entitled to give written notice to the Shareholders that mediators should be appointed in connection with the tie. Each Shareholder shall thereafter designate a mediator (the “Mediator”), being the CEO at that time of the group of companies of each Shareholder, within 5 calendar days of the date of the notice of the Director(s).

 

Thereupon, the Mediators are required to undertake best efforts to find a solution for the Tie and to reach a common decision on the Tie within 20 calendar days from the date of the notice of the Director(s). The Shareholders and the Company shall accept and implement the common decision of the Mediators.

 

In case the Mediators do not find a solution within the above stated period they will immediately inform the Shareholders thereof in writing (the “Buy/Sell Notice”) and the following procedure shall be applicable. In case the Shareholders do not (timely) designate two Mediators, the following procedure shall equally be applicable and the Buy/Sell Notice shall be deemed to have been given 5 calendar days from the date of the notice of the Director(s).

 

8.4.                           Each Shareholder shall, within 15 calendar days from the date of the Buy/Sell Notice, deliver a sealed tender (the “Sealed Tender”) addressed to the other Shareholder for all the Shares owned by the other Shareholder and shall deposit such tender with the auditors for the time being of the Company.  Upon the expiration of the said 15 days the auditors shall in the presence of representatives of each of the Shareholders open such tenders. The auditors shall forthwith declare the highest tender.

 

Thereupon, the Shareholder (the “Highest Price Shareholder”) who offered the highest price for the Shares of the other Shareholder (the “Other Shareholder”) shall  have the option to either (i) purchase the Shares of the Other Shareholder at the price stated in the Sealed Tender of the Highest Price Shareholder, or (ii) sell its Shares to the Other Shareholder at the price stated in the Sealed Tender of the Other Shareholder. The Other Shareholder shall be required to either (i) sell its Shares to the Highest Price Shareholder at the price stated in the Sealed Tender of the Highest Price Shareholder or (ii) purchase the Shares of the Highest Price Shareholder at the price stated in the Sealed Tender of the Other Shareholder, at the election of the Highest Price Shareholder. The purchase or sale must relate to all of the Shares held by a Shareholder and cannot relate to only a portion of the Shares held by a Shareholder.

 

In case a Shareholder does not timely send a Sealed Tender (the “Defaulting Shareholder”), the other Shareholder (the “Non-Defaulting Shareholder”) shall elect either to have the option, at its sole discretion, to (i) purchase all of the Shares of the Defaulting Shareholder at the price stated in the Sealed Tender of the Non-Defaulting Shareholder, or (ii) to sell all of its Shares to the Defaulting Shareholder at

 

18











 

the price stated in the Sealed Tender of the Non-Defaulting Shareholder. The Defaulting Shareholder shall be required to either sell its Shares to the Non-Defaulting Shareholder or purchase the Shares of the Non-Defaulting Shareholder at the price stated in the Sealed Tender of the Non-Defaulting Shareholder, in accordance with the election made by the Non-Defaulting Shareholder.

 

In case none of the Shareholders sends a Sealed Tender, the Company will be liquidated.

 

Contrary to Article 1583 of the Belgian Civil Code, legal title to the Shares shall only be transferred upon payment of the purchase price. The purchase price shall be paid and legal title to the Shares shall be transferred within 30 calendar days of the Sealed Tender.

 

Any transfer of Shares in violation of the provisions of this Article 8.4. shall be null and void and shall be without any effect vis-à-vis the Company.

 

In any instance whereby, under the provisions of this Section, one Shareholder purchases the Shares of the other Shareholder, the purchasing Shareholder shall have the right, but not the obligation, to purchase the other Shareholder’s Shareholders Loans for the Shareholders Loans Transfer Price (as defined in Article 14.3 hereof but so that the other Shareholder referred to above shall for the purpose of the definition be deemed to be the “Defaulting Shareholder”).

 

In the event that a Shareholder shall be deemed to have given an Offer Notice pursuant to the provisions of Article 14 hereof then Article 14 shall override the provisions of this Article 8 and the latter provisions and any action that may have been taken pursuant to the latter provisions shall be deemed to be null and void.

 

ARTICLE 9 — SHAREHOLDERS MEETING

 

9.1.                           Meetings.

 

Subject to the provisions of Article 9.2., decisions of the general meeting of shareholders of the Company (the “General Meeting of Shareholders”) relating to the following items shall require a majority of 75 % of all votes cast at the relevant shareholders meeting and a quorum of  75 % of all shareholders present or represented:

·                  distribution of dividends of the Company;

 

19











 

·                  limitation or abolition of the preferential subscription rights in connection with the issue of shares in the Company.

 

For the avoidance of doubt: the termination or variation of this Agreement shall require the unanimous approval of the Shareholders.

 

9.2.                           Deadlock.

 

In case of a tie of votes in the General Meeting of Shareholders or in case no decision can be taken because of the absence of a quorum or because a Shareholder abstains from voting, a second General Meeting of Shareholders shall be called within 15 calendar days from the date of the first meeting. The Shareholders shall in good faith try to find a solution for the issue during the intervening 15 calendar days period. In case no solution is found at the second General Meeting of Shareholders or no decision can be taken because of the absence of a quorum or because a Shareholder abstains from voting, each Shareholder will be entitled to give written notice to the other Shareholder that mediators should be appointed in connection with the tie. Each Shareholder shall thereafter designate a mediator (the “Mediator”), which shall be the CEO of the group of companies of each Shareholder, within 5 calendar days of the date of the notice of the Shareholder(s).

 

Thereupon, the Mediators are required to undertake best efforts to find a solution for the issue and to reach a common decision on the issue within 20 calendar days from the date of the notice of the Shareholder(s). The Shareholders and the Company shall accept and implement the common decision of the Mediators.

 

In case the Mediators do not find a solution within the above stated period they will immediately inform the Shareholders thereof in writing (the “Buy/Sell Notice”) and the following procedure shall be applicable. In case the Shareholders do not (timely) designate two Mediators, the following procedure shall equally be applicable and the Buy/Sell Notice shall be deemed to have been given 5 calendar days from the date of the notice of the Shareholder(s).

 

Each Shareholder shall, within 15 calendar days from the date of the Buy/Sell Notice, deliver a sealed tender (the “Sealed Tender”) addressed to the other Shareholder for all the Shares owned by the other Shareholder and shall deposit such tender with the auditors for the time being of the Company. Upon the expiration of the said 15 days the auditors shall in the presence of representatives of each of the Shareholders open such tenders.  The auditors shall forthwith declare the highest tender.

 

Thereupon, the Shareholder (the “Highest Price Shareholder”) who offered the highest price for the Shares of the other Shareholder (the “Other Shareholder”) shall have the option to either (i) purchase the Shares of the Other Shareholder at the price stated in the Sealed Tender of the Highest Price Shareholder or, (ii) sell its Shares to the Other Shareholder at the price stated in the Sealed Tender of the Other Shareholder. The Other Shareholder shall be required to either (i) sell its Shares to the

 

20









 

Highest Price Shareholder at the price stated in the Sealed Tender of the Highest Price Shareholder or (ii) purchase the Shares of the Highest Price Shareholder at the price stated in the Sealed Tender of the Other Shareholder, at the election of the Highest Price Shareholder. The purchase or sale must relate to all of the Shares of the Other Shareholder and cannot relate to only a portion of the Shares of the Other Shareholder.

 

In case a Shareholder does not timely send a Sealed Tender (the “Defaulting Shareholder”), the other Shareholder (the “Non-Defaulting Shareholder”) shall have the option, at its sole discretion, to (i) purchase all of the Shares of the Defaulting Shareholder at the price stated in the Sealed Tender of the Non-Defaulting Shareholder, or (ii) to sell all of its Shares to the Defaulting Shareholder at the price stated in the Sealed Tender of the Non-Defaulting Shareholder. The Defaulting Shareholder shall be required to either sell its Shares to the Non-Defaulting Shareholder or purchase the Shares of the Non-Defaulting Shareholder at the price stated in the Sealed Tender of the Non-Defaulting Shareholder, in accordance with the election made by the Non-Defaulting Shareholder. In case none of the Shareholders sends a Sealed Tender, the Company will be liquidated.

 

Contrary to Article 1583 of the Belgian Civil Code, legal title to the Shares shall only be transferred upon payment of the purchase price. The purchase price shall be paid and legal title to the Shares shall be transferred within 30 calendar days of the Sealed Tender.

 

Any transfer of Shares in violation of the provisions of this Article 9.2. shall be null and void and shall be without any effect vis-à-vis the Company.

 

In any instance whereby, under the provisions of this Section, one Shareholder purchases the Shares of the other Shareholder, the purchasing Shareholder shall have the right, but not the obligation, to purchase the other Shareholder’s Shareholders Loans for the Shareholders Loans Transfer Price (as defined in Article 14.3 hereof but so that the other Shareholder referred to above shall for the purpose of the definition be deemed to be the “Defaulting Shareholder”).

 

In the event that a Shareholder shall be deemed to have given an Offer Notice pursuant to the provisions of Article 14 hereof then Article 14 shall override the provisions of this Article 9 and the latter provisions and any action that may have been taken pursuant to the latter provisions shall be deemed to be null and void.

 

ARTICLE 10 — DISTRIBUTION OF SURPLUS

 

10.1.                     Any dividends of the Company shall, subject to mandatory provisions of Belgian law, be distributed to the Shareholders in proportion to their respective shareholdings from time to time in the Company. The Shareholders undertake to vote in favour of any

 

21











 

distribution of dividends by the Company to the extent that the financial means so distributed are not reasonably required or necessary for the operation of the Company (taking into account that part of the Hire to be received by the Company under the Charter was prepaid to the Company) and always provided that any amounts due under the Shareholders Loans have been repaid. In this context, the Shareholders further undertake to repay all debt (including the Shareholders Loans) as soon as possible, taking into account the Company’s financial means not reasonably required or necessary for the operation of the Company (taking into account that a part of the Hire to be received by the Company under the Charter was prepaid to the Company). Any disagreement respecting the question whether the financial means so distributed are not reasonably required or necessary for the operation of the Company, shall be resolved by the Shareholders and subject to the provisions of Article 9.2.

 

10.2.                     If the Ship is sold and all liabilities are discharged in respect of the Ship (for sake of clarity including the obligations on the Shareholders Loans and the repayment of any Hire prepaid under the Charter) and the Company, the balance of the funds remaining (after repayment of the Shareholders Loans and possible repayment of prepaid Hire under the Charter) will be distributed to the Shareholders, subject to mandatory provisions of Belgian law.

 

ARTICLE 11  — VOTING

ARTICLE 12 - CONFIDENTIALITY

 

Each Party shall treat as strictly confidential all information contained in this Agreement, and shall not disclose such information to any third party without the prior written consent of the other Parties (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), unless such a disclosure is required (a) by law or by regulation or by any regulatory authority (including stock exchange rules) to which either Party is subject, or (b) for the purposes of any judicial proceedings.

 

ARTICLE 13 - PUBLIC ANNOUNCEMENTS

 

13.1.                   Unless it complies with the provisions of Article 13, no Party shall issue any press release or make any public statement or other communication in respect of any of the matters contained in this Agreement or any document referred to herein unless

14.1.                     If :

 

(a)         a Shareholder shall be in material breach of its obligations under this Agreement (the Shareholder in breach or affiliated to the company in breach, being referred to as the “Defaulting Party”) and if the default in question has not been remedied within ***** days of receipt by the Defaulting Shareholder of a notice of default (the “Default Notice”) by the other Shareholder; or

 

(b)         a Shareholder is dissolved, goes into liquidation, bankruptcy or reorganisation or appoints, or there is appointed a receiver for all or a material part of its assets, or

 

(c)          the Lenders request the Company to pay any sum outstanding under the Loan Agreement and/or enforce or threaten to enforce any or all of the security interests granted pursuant to the Security Documents, following a default of Exmar under the Loan Agreement which is continuing and which is not caused by a default of the Company, the Charterer, GKFF or the Charter Guarantor, or

 

(d)         If the Charter Guarantor shall be in material breach of his obligations under the Charterer Guarantee and if the default in question has not been remedied in accordance with the provisions of Article 4.4 hereof,

 

then, subject to any prior rights of the Lenders and/or the Security Trustee in respect of the A Shares if Exmar is the defaulting Shareholder, and without prejudice to any other remedies the other Shareholder and/or the Company may have (including the right to recover from the defaulting party and/or the Defaulting Shareholder any moneys then due from the defaulting party, while giving credit for any moneys owed to the defaulting party by the other Shareholder), the Defaulting Shareholder shall be deemed to have given notice to the Company and the other Shareholder (the “Offer Notice”) effective on the last day of the said ***** day period or the date of the relevant event as stated in paragraphs (b),(c) and (d) of this Article 14.1, in respect of all its Shares and its Shareholders Loans offering them for sale to the other

 

23











 

Shareholder and specifying as the fair value and consideration therefore the Transfer Price fixed in accordance with Article 14.3., less any sums due and payable by the Defaulting Party to the Company (which in the case of DSME 2237 or its assignee includes any sums which may be due and payable by the Charter Guarantor under the Charter Guarantee) which have not otherwise been satisfied — the aggregate of such sums is hereinafter referred to as the “Default Sum”.

 

In such event the Defaulting Shareholder shall be deemed to constitute the Company as the Defaulting Shareholder’s agent for the sale of the Shares and the Shareholders Loans of the Defaulting Shareholder to the other Shareholder.

 

The other Shareholder, provided it is willing and agrees, (such agreement to be irrevocable) may purchase the Shares and the Shareholders Loans of the Defaulting Shareholder at the Transfer Price fixed pursuant to Article 14.3 less any Default Sum. Once Offer Notice is deemed to be given as provided above, the Defaulting Shareholder may not withdraw from such sale of its Shares and Shareholders Loans without the consent in writing of the other Shareholder. Unless the other Shareholder shall agree a Transfer Price with the Defaulting Shareholder or that the Defaulting Shareholder need not sell its Shares and Shareholders Loans the Company shall instruct its auditors to determine the Transfer Price in accordance with Article 14.3 hereof.

 

14.2.                                                (a)                       The Company shall notify the Defaulting Shareholder within 28 days after the later of the date upon which Offer Notice is deemed to have been given or the determination of the Transfer Price (the “Acceptance Period”) whether the other Shareholder has agreed to purchase its Shares and Shareholders Loans.

 

(b)                       The Defaulting Shareholder shall be bound, upon payment by the other Shareholder of the Transfer Price (less any Default Sum), to transfer its Shares and Shareholders Loans to the other Shareholder.

 

(c)                                  The other Shareholder shall be bound to pay the Defaulting Shareholder the Transfer Price (less any Default Sum) within 14 days of the date of its agreement to purchase the Shares and Shareholders Loans of the Defaulting Shareholder .

 

(d)                                 In the event that, after payment of the Transfer Price less the Default Sum, the Company recovers from the Defaulting Shareholder or the Charter Guarantor the whole or part of the Default Sum, the sum so recovered shall be repaid to the Defaulting Shareholder provided that, in the event the Default Sum exceeded the Transfer Price and was not otherwise recovered by the other Shareholder, then any sums recovered by the Company shall be repaid less the sum by which the Default Sum exceeded the Transfer Price.

SPECIFIC TERMS IN THIS EXHIBIT HAVE BEEN REDACTED BECAUSE CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT FOR THOSE TERMS HAS BEEN REQUESTED. THE REDACTED MATERIAL HAS BEEN SEPARATELY FILED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION, AND THE TERMS HAVE BEEN MARKED AT THE APPROPRIATE PLACE WITH FIVE ASTERISKS (*****).

 

14.3.                                                The Transfer Price shall be the sum of the Share Transfer Price and the Shareholders Loans Transfer Price (both as hereinafter defined).

 

The Share Transfer Price shall be :

 

(i)                                either, the value of the Shares of the Defaulting Shareholder based on the proportional part of the value on a Liquidation Basis of the Company (Liquidation Basis being defined as the Fair Market Value (as defined hereafter) of the Ship, less the Company’s liabilities);

 

(ii)                             or, if the value ascribed to the Shares is a negative value, the Share Transfer Price shall be deemed to be USD ***** for all of the Shares.

 

The Shareholders Loans Transfer Price shall be determined as follows:

 

In the event that Exmar or its assignee is the Defaulting Shareholder, the Transfer Price for the Shareholders Loans of Exmar or its assignees shall be, without being less than USD *****, the lower of:

 

(a)                                 the face value of the subscribed Exmar Shareholder Loans plus accrued interest; or

(b)                                 the Fair Market Value of the Ship (as determined in the manner described above).

 

In the event that DSME 2237 or its assignee is the Defaulting Shareholder, the Transfer Price for the Shareholders Loans of DSME 2237 or its assignee shall be, without being less than USD *****, the lower of:

 

(a)                                 the face value of the subscribed DSME 2237 Shareholders Loans plus accrued interest; or

(b)                                 the residual value of the Ship, being the Fair Market Value of the Ship (as determined in the manner described above) less the amounts due under the outstanding Shareholders Loans of Exmar or its assignee.

 

The  Share Transfer Price and the Shareholders Loans Transfer Price shall be determined by the auditors for the time being of the Company (being an international accounting firm of first class standing) acting as experts and not as arbitrators and their determination shall be conclusive and binding on both the Defaulting Shareholder and the other Shareholder(s). For the purposes of determining the Share Transfer Price and the Shareholders Loans Transfer Price, the Defaulting Shareholder and the other Shareholder shall each cause an appraisal to be rendered of the Ship (each such appraisal being hereafter called a “Party Appraisal”) by a reputable independent shipbroker practicing in the sale and purchase of similar Ships, who shall act as experts and not as arbitrators (each an “Appraiser”).  The Shareholders shall reasonably cooperate with the Appraisers and shall

SPECIFIC TERMS IN THIS EXHIBIT HAVE BEEN REDACTED BECAUSE CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT FOR THOSE TERMS HAS BEEN REQUESTED. THE REDACTED MATERIAL HAS BEEN SEPARATELY FILED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION, AND THE TERMS HAVE BEEN MARKED AT THE APPROPRIATE PLACE WITH FIVE ASTERISKS (*****).

 

provide the Appraisers such information concerning the Ship as shall be necessary to determine an appraised value of the Ship (each such appraised value of the Ship hereafter called a “Party Appraised Value”).  Each Party Appraisal shall be made without inspection of the Ship but an inspection of class records shall be made on the basis that the Ship is free of any charter party.  The Parties shall cause the Party Appraisals to be rendered not later than thirty (30) calendar days following the date of effectiveness of the Offer Notice.

 

In the event the Party Appraised Value, which is the lower of the two Party Appraised Values, is ***** percent (***** %) or more of the Party Appraised Value, which is the higher of the two Party Appraised Values, the Fair Market Value of the Ship shall be the average of the two Party Appraised Values.

 

In the event the Party Appraised Value, which is the lower of the two Party Appraised Values, is less than ***** percent (***** %) of the Party Appraised Value, which is the higher of the two Party Appraised Values, the Parties shall cause the two Party Appraisers to immediately select a third Appraiser (the “Third Appraiser”) to determine and deliver to the Parties, independently, within thirty (30) calendar days of the receipt of the last of the two Party Appraisals such Third Appraiser’s appraisal of the Ship (the “Third Appraised Value”).

 

In the event the Third Appraised Value is equal to or higher than the lower of the two Party Appraised Values but not higher than the higher of the two Party Appraised Values, the Fair Market Value of the Ship shall be the Third Appraised Value.

 

In the event the Third Appraised Value is higher than the higher of the two Party Appraised Values, the Fair Market Value of the Ship shall be the higher of the two Party Appraised Values.

 

In the event the Third Appraised Value is lower than the lower of the two Party Appraised Values, the Fair Market Value of the Ship shall be the lower of the two Party Appraised Values.

 

The costs of determining the Transfer Price shall include the fees and expenses of the said auditors and the said shipbrokers and any expenses incurred by the Company in supplying them with information required by them in order to determine the Transfer Price and shall be paid by the Defaulting Shareholder.

 

14.4.                                                All Shares and Shareholders Loans transferred pursuant to this Article 14 shall, subject to the Loan Agreement and the Security Documents, be transferred free from all liens, charges and encumbrances whatsoever, and with all rights and benefits attaching thereto at the date of sale.

 

26











 

14.5.                                                If the Defaulting Shareholder defaults in transferring its Shares and Shareholders Loans to the other Shareholder, the Company may receive the Transfer Price and the Defaulting Shareholder shall be deemed to have appointed and does hereby irrevocably appoint any Director as the agent of the Defaulting Shareholder to execute a transfer of its Shares and Shareholders Loans to the other Shareholder. Upon the execution of such transfer, the Company shall hold the purchase money in trust for the Defaulting Shareholder. The receipt by the Company of the Transfer Price shall be a good discharge to the other Shareholder and after the other Shareholder’s name has been entered in the register of members of the Company the validity of the proceedings shall not be questioned by any person.

 

The other Shareholder shall be entitled to purchase the whole, but not part only, of the Shares and Shareholders Loans of the Defaulting Shareholder.

Save in connection with a transfer of Shares in accordance with or as permitted under Article 5, 6, 8, 9 and/or 14 hereof, neither this Agreement nor any right, remedy, obligation or liability hereunder may be assigned by any Party hereto without the prior written consent of the other Party. Each Shareholder hereby consents in advance to the assignment of the rights and obligations under this Agreement to the transferee of a transfer of Shares in accordance with Article 5.5 hereof.
