 Section 2.03. Permitted Transferees. Notwithstanding anything in this
Agreement to the contrary, any Bank Shareholder or PE Shareholder may at any time Transfer any or all of its Initial Ownership Common Shares to one or more of its Permitted Transferees without the consent of the Company or any other Shareholder or

(c) With respect to a PE Shareholder, the number of Initial Ownership Common Shares Transferred by such PE Shareholder pursuant to

(d) If any Bank Shareholder or PE Shareholder does not Transfer in an offering or sale the maximum allowable number of Initial Ownership
Common Shares under Section 2.04(b) or (c), respectively, in any successive 12-month period beginning on the Restriction Termination Date or any anniversary thereof, any such remaining number of Initial Ownership Common Shares for such period
shall be carried over to the next subsequent 12-month period and available for Transfer in an offering or sale in connection with the exercise of such Bank Shareholder’s or PE Shareholder’s rights under, and in accordance with, Article 3

 (e) In the case of the Bank Shareholders, any Initial Ownership Common Shares

Transfer of Initial Ownership Common Shares that (i) is required by law or a governmental authority or (ii) any Shareholder determines in good faith, based on the advice of legal counsel (which advice may be from internal or external
counsel and may be oral or written), would subject it or its Affiliates to material adverse legal, regulatory or compliance consequences as a result of continued ownership of such Initial Ownership Common Shares, provided that in the case of
any Transfer pursuant to clause (i) or (ii), such Shareholder shall Transfer no more than the minimum number of Initial Ownership Common Shares as are reasonably necessary to satisfy such legal or governmental authority requirement or to
avoid 

  
 8 








 
such material adverse consequences; and provided further that, in the case of Transfers contemplated by clause (ii) above, the transferee shall be subject to the Company’s prior
written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld) and such transferee of such Initial Ownership Common Shares shall have agreed in writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement by executing a joinder substantially in the form of Exhibit A
attached hereto. 
 Section 2.05. Notice of Transfers. Each Bank Shareholder and PE Shareholder shall give the Company
prompt written notice of any transactions in the Initial Ownership Common Shares in reliance on Section 2.03 or 2.04. 
 ARTICLE 3

 REGISTRATION RIGHTS 

Section 3.01. Demand Registration. (a) If the Company shall receive at any time after the Restriction Termination Date a
request from two (2) or more Shareholders that are either Bank Shareholders or PE Shareholders, or both (in either case, the “Initial Requesting Shareholders”) that the Company effect the registration under the Securities Act
of all or any portion of such Initial Requesting Shareholders’ Registrable Securities, and specifying the intended method of disposition thereof, then the Company shall give notice (a “Demand Notice”) of such requested
registration (each such request shall be referred to herein as a “Demand Registration”) to the other Shareholders, which notice shall be given not later than ten (10) Business Days following receipt by the Company of the Demand
Notice. Such other Shareholders may, upon notice received by the Company no later than five Business Days after the date of the notice of a Demand Registration, request that the Company also effect the registration under the Securities Act of all or
any portion of such other Shareholders’ Registrable Securities (such other requesting Shareholders, together with the Initial Requesting Shareholders, shall be referred to herein as the “Requesting Shareholders”). Thereafter,
subject to the restrictions set forth in Section 2.04 and Section 3.01(f), the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to effect the registration under the Securities Act of all Registrable Securities for which the Requesting
Shareholders have requested registration under this Section 3.01 to the extent necessary to permit the disposition of the Registrable Securities so to be registered (in accordance with the intended methods thereof as aforesaid);
provided that the Company shall be permitted to effect the registration under the Securities Act of any securities other than Registrable Securities (including for the benefit of any other Persons not party to this Agreement) as
part of any Demand Registration; provided further that the Company shall not be obligated to effect a Demand Registration (i) unless the aggregate gross proceeds (before the deduction of any discounts or commissions)
expected to be received from the sale of the Registrable Securities requested to be included in such Demand Registration equals or exceeds $100,000,000 (the “Proceeds Threshold”),


  
 9 








 
provided the Proceeds Threshold shall only apply through the fourth anniversary of the IPO Closing Date, and (ii) until after the Restriction Termination Date. 

(b) If any Registrable Securities for which the Requesting Shareholders have requested registration under Section 3.01(a) are excluded from
such Demand Registration in accordance with the restrictions set forth in Section 3.01(f), then such Requesting Shareholders may either (i) request that the Company grant a written waiver to permit such Requesting Shareholders to Transfer such
excluded Registrable Securities by any means available, subject to compliance with the Securities Act and any other applicable securities or “blue sky” laws or (ii) request that the Company effect a second Demand Registration under
the Securities Act to permit the disposition of such excluded Registrable Securities in a Public Offering. Thereafter, subject to the restrictions set forth in Section 2.04 and, in the case of clause (ii) of the preceding sentence, Section
3.01(f), the Company shall either (A) in its sole discretion, grant the waiver request of the Requesting Shareholders, or (B) use commercially reasonable efforts to effect the registration under the Securities Act of all Registrable
Securities for which the Requesting Shareholders have requested registration under Section 3.01(b)(ii) to the extent necessary to permit the disposition of the Registrable Securities so to be registered. If any Registrable Securities for which the
Requesting Shareholders have requested registration under Section 3.01(b)(ii) are excluded from such second Demand Registration in accordance with the restrictions set forth in Section 3.01(f), then such Requesting Shareholders may, subject to the
restrictions set forth in Section 2.04, Transfer such excluded Registrable Securities by any means available, subject to compliance with the Securities Act and any other applicable securities or “blue sky” laws. In no event shall the
Company be required to effect (A) more than one Demand Registration within each successive 12-month period beginning on the Restriction Termination Date or any anniversary thereof except as provided in Section 3.01(b)(ii), (B) a
Demand Registration within a period of 90 days after the effective date of any other registration statement relating to any Demand Registration or (C) any Demand Registration if, at the time of such request, four or more Demand Registrations
(excluding (x) any Demand Registrations pursuant to Section 3.01(b)(ii) or 3.02(a)(ii)(B)(2), and (y) any Demand Registrations effected (in the Company’s sole discretion) other than the one Demand Registration required pursuant
to this Section 3.01(b) within each successive 12-month period beginning on the Restriction Termination Date or any anniversary thereof) have previously been effected. Notwithstanding the foregoing limit of four Demand Registrations, if,
subsequent to the fourth anniversary of the IPO Closing Date, (A) any PE Shareholder owns Common Shares equal to 100% of the number of such PE Shareholder’s Initial Ownership Common Shares and (B) the Company’s board of directors
includes a member nominated by such PE Shareholder, then such PE Shareholder shall be entitled to one additional Demand Registration otherwise in accordance with the terms of Section 3.01 (provided that the Demand Notice required by Section 3.01(a)
need only be sent by the Company to any other PE Shareholder that satisfies the same demand requirements as the requesting PE 

  
 10 








 
Shareholder), which shall not be taken into account for purposes of determining whether the limit of four Demand Registrations have been effected. In addition, if, as of the fourth anniversary of
the IPO Closing Date, any Shareholder owns more than 5% of the Company’s issued and outstanding Common Shares, then such Shareholder shall be entitled to one additional Demand Registration otherwise in accordance with the terms of Section 3.01
(provided that the Demand Notice required by Section 3.01(a) need only be sent by the Company to any other Shareholder that satisfies the same demand requirements as the requesting Shareholder), which shall not be taken into account for purposes of
determining whether the limit of four Demand Registrations have been effected. 
 (c) At any time prior to the effective date of the
registration statement relating to a Demand Registration request pursuant to Section 3.01(a) or Section 3.01(b)(ii), a Shareholder may withdraw from the related registration by providing written notice to the Company. If sufficient
Registrable Securities are so withdrawn such that the number of Registrable Securities to be included in such Demand Registration do not meet the applicable threshold(s) required for such Demand Registration pursuant to Section 3.01(a), the
Company may cease all efforts to effect such Demand Registration upon such withdrawal and, upon the Company ceasing all efforts to effect registration, such Demand Registration shall be deemed revoked. Notwithstanding clause (e) below, a
request, so revoked, shall be considered to be a Demand Registration unless (i) such revocation arose out of the fault of the Company, (ii) at the time of such withdrawal, the Shareholders shall have learned of a material adverse change in
the condition, business, or prospects of the Company from the condition, business or prospects of the Company at the time of the related registration request and have promptly withdrawn the request after learning of such information, or
(iii) the Requesting Shareholders reimburse the Company for all Registration Expenses (other than the expenses set forth under clause (v) of the definition thereof) incurred prior to the receipt of such revocation, pro rata among such
Requesting Shareholders on the basis of the number of Registrable Securities of each such Requesting Shareholder that were to be included in the revoked Demand Registration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a requested registration does not meet
the Proceeds Threshold, such requested registration shall not be deemed a Demand Registration or a withdrawn registration and shall not be taken into account for purposes of determining the number of Demand Registrations that have been effected.

 (d) The Company shall be liable for and pay all Registration Expenses in connection with any Demand Registration that is effected or, in
the case of any Demand Registration that is not effected, where (i) the failure of such Demand Registration to be effected arose out of the fault of the Company or (ii) the Requesting Shareholders do not elect to pay Registration Expenses
in accordance with clause (iii) of the last sentence of Section 3.01(c). For the avoidance of doubt, the Requesting Shareholders shall be liable for and pay all Registration Expenses (other than the expenses set forth under clause
(v) of the definition

thereof) in any other circumstance in connection with any Demand Registration, and, in all circumstances in connection with any Demand Registration, shall be liable for and pay all fees and
out-of-pocket expenses of the Requesting Shareholders (or the agents who manage their accounts), including, but not limited to, fees and disbursements of counsel for the Requesting Shareholders and any underwriting fees, discounts and commissions
attributable to the sale of Registrable Securities. 
 (e) A Demand Registration shall not be deemed to have occurred unless the
registration statement relating thereto (A) has become effective under the Securities Act and (B) has remained effective for a period of at least 30 days (or such shorter period in which all Registrable Securities of the Requesting
Shareholders included in such registration have actually been sold thereunder). 
 (f) If a Demand Registration involves a Public
Offering and the managing underwriter advises the Company and the Requesting Shareholders that, in its view, the number of shares of Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration (including any securities that the Company
proposes to be included that are not Registrable Securities) exceeds the largest number of shares that can be sold without having an adverse effect on such offering, including the price at which such shares can be sold (the “Maximum Offering
Size”), the Company shall include in such registration, in the priority listed below, up to the Maximum Offering Size: 

(i) first, all Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration by all Requesting Shareholders (allocated,
if necessary for the offering not to exceed the Maximum Offering Size, pro rata among such Shareholders on the basis of the relative number of Registrable Securities held by each such Shareholder); and 

(ii) second, any securities proposed to be registered by the Company (including for the benefit of any other Persons not party
to this Agreement, with such priorities among them as the Company shall determine in its sole discretion). 
 (g) Upon notice to the
Requesting Shareholders, the Company may postpone effecting a registration pursuant to this Section 3.01 on two occasions during any period of twelve consecutive months for a time period specified in the notice but not exceeding 120 days in the
aggregate in any period of twelve consecutive months (which period may not be extended or renewed), if (i) the Company determines that effecting the registration could materially and adversely affect an offering of securities of the Company or
(ii) the Company is in possession of material non-public information the disclosure of which during the period specified in such notice the Company reasonably believes would not be in the best interests of the Company.

 Section 3.02. Shelf Registration. (a) (i) At any time after the Restriction Termination
Date, if the Company is eligible to use Form F-3 or Form S-3, then any two (2) or more Shareholders that are either Bank Shareholders or PE Shareholders, or both (in either case, the “Initial Shelf Requesting Shareholders”) may
request the Company to effect a Shelf Registration of some or all of the Registrable Securities held by such Initial Shelf Requesting Shareholders. The Company shall give notice of such requested Shelf Registration to the other Shareholders, which
notice shall be given not later than ten (10) Business Days following receipt by the Company of the request from the Initial Shelf Requesting Shareholders. Such other Shareholders may, upon notice received by the Company no later than five
Business Days after the date of the notice of a Shelf Registration, request that the Company also effect a registration of some or all of the Registrable Securities held by such other Shareholders (such other requesting Shareholders, together with
the Initial Shelf Requesting Shareholders, shall be referred to herein as the “Shelf Requesting Shareholders”). The Company shall only be required to effectuate one Public Offering from such Shelf Registration (an
“Underwritten Takedown”) within each successive 12-month period beginning on the Restriction Termination Date or any anniversary thereof, with a minimum period of 90 days between each such Public Offering, and each such offering
shall be deemed a Demand Registration for purposes of the Company’s obligation to effect no more than four Demand Registrations in the aggregate as set forth in Section 3.01(b), subject to the additional demand rights as of or following the
fourth anniversary of the IPO Closing Date as set forth in such section. For the avoidance of doubt, Registrable Securities registered by the Shelf Requesting Shareholders pursuant to a Shelf Registration may only be offered or sold pursuant to an
Underwritten Takedown or otherwise pursuant to the provisions of Section 3.02(a)(ii) (other than, for the avoidance of doubt, any Registrable Securities registered as part of a Shelf Registration under Section 3.03 hereof). 

(ii) (A) Notwithstanding Section 3.02(a)(i), if any Registrable Securities for which the Shelf Requesting Shareholders have
requested a Shelf Registration are excluded from an Underwritten Takedown in accordance with the restrictions set forth in Section 3.01(f), then such Shelf Requesting Shareholders may either (1) request that the Company grant a written waiver
to permit such Shelf Requesting Shareholders to Transfer such excluded Registrable Securities by any means available, subject to compliance with the Securities Act and any other applicable securities or “blue sky” laws or (2) request
that the Company effect a second Underwritten Takedown to permit the disposition of such excluded Registrable Securities in a Public Offering. (B) Subject to the restrictions set forth in Section 2.04 and, in the case of
Section 3.02(a)(ii)(A)(2), subject to the restrictions set forth in Section 3.01(f), the Company shall either (1) in its sole discretion, grant the waiver request of the Shelf Requesting Shareholders, or (2) use commercially
reasonable efforts to effect the Underwritten Takedown of all Registrable Securities for which the Shelf Requesting Shareholders have requested such Underwritten Takedown under Section 3.02(a)(ii)(A)(2) to the extent necessary to permit the
disposition of such 

  
 13 








 
excluded Registrable Securities in a Public Offering. (C) If any Registrable Securities for which the Shelf Requesting Shareholders have requested an Underwritten Takedown under
Section 3.02(a)(ii)(A)(2) are excluded from such second Underwritten Takedown in accordance with the restrictions set forth in Section 3.01(f), then such Shelf Requesting Shareholders may, subject to the restrictions set forth in
Section 2.04, Transfer such excluded Registrable Securities by any means available, subject to compliance with the Securities Act and any other applicable securities or “blue sky” laws. 

(iii) The provisions of Section 3.01 shall apply mutatis mutandis to each Underwritten Takedown, with references to “filing of the
registration statement” or “effective date” being deemed references to filing of a prospectus or supplement for such offering and references to “registration” being deemed references to the offering; provided that
Requesting Shareholders shall only include Shareholders whose Registrable Securities are included in such Shelf Registration or may be included therein without the need for an amendment to such Shelf Registration (other than an automatically
effective amendment). So long as the Shelf Registration is effective, no Shareholder may request any Demand Registration pursuant to Section 3.01 with respect to Registrable Securities that are registered on such Shelf Registration but instead shall
have the right to request an Underwritten Takedown as set forth above. 
 (b) If the Company shall receive a request from Shelf Requesting
Shareholders that the Company effect a Shelf Registration, then the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to effect the registration under the Securities Act of all Registrable Securities for which the Shelf Requesting Shareholders have
requested registration under this Section 3.02 to the extent necessary to permit the registration of the Registrable Securities so to be registered on such Shelf Registration; provided that the Company shall be permitted to effect the
registration under the Securities Act of any securities other than Registrable Securities (including for the benefit of any other Persons not party to this Agreement) as part of any Shelf Registration. 

(c) At any time prior to the effective date of the registration statement relating to a Shelf Registration request pursuant to
Section 3.02(a), a Shareholder may withdraw from the related registration by providing written notice to the Company. If sufficient Registrable Securities are so withdrawn such that the number of Registrable Securities to be included in such
Shelf Registration do not meet the applicable threshold(s) required for such Shelf Registration pursuant to Section 3.02(a), the Company may cease all efforts to effect such Shelf Registration upon such withdrawal and, upon the Company ceasing
all efforts to effect registration, such Demand Registration shall be deemed revoked. A request, so revoked, shall be considered to be a Demand Registration unless (i) such revocation arose out of the fault of the Company, (ii) at the time
of such withdrawal, the Shareholders shall have learned of a material adverse change in the condition, business, or prospects of the Company from the condition, business 

  
 14 








 
or prospects of the Company at the time of the related registration request and have promptly withdrawn the request after learning of such information or (iii) the Shelf Requesting
Shareholders reimburse the Company for all Registration Expenses (other than the expenses set forth under clause (v) of the definition thereof) incurred prior to the receipt of such revocation, pro rata among such Shelf Requesting Shareholders
on the basis of the number of Registrable Securities of each such Shelf Requesting Shareholder that were to be included in the revoked Shelf Registration. 

(d) The Company shall be liable for and pay all Registration Expenses in connection with any Shelf Registration that is effected or, in the
case of any Shelf Registration that is not effected, where the failure of such Shelf Registration to be effected arose out of the fault of the Company. For the avoidance of doubt, the Shelf Requesting Shareholders shall be liable for and pay all
Registration Expenses (other than the expenses set forth under clause (v) of the definition thereof) in any other circumstance in connection with any Shelf Registration, and, in all circumstances in connection with any Shelf Registration, shall
be liable for and pay all fees and out-of-pocket expenses of the Shelf Requesting Shareholders (or the agents who manage their accounts), including, but not limited to, fees and disbursements of counsel for the Shelf Requesting Shareholders and any
underwriting fees, discounts and commissions attributable to the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to an Underwritten Takedown. 
 (e)
Upon notice to the Shelf Requesting Shareholders, the Company may postpone effecting a Shelf Registration pursuant to this Section 3.02 or delay any Underwritten Takedown pursuant to such Shelf Registration, as the case may be, on two occasions
during any period of twelve consecutive months for a time period specified in the notice but not exceeding 120 days in the aggregate in any period of twelve consecutive months (which period may not be extended or renewed), if (i) the Company
determines that effecting the Shelf Registration or any Underwritten Takedown, as the case may be, could materially and adversely affect an offering of securities of the Company, or (ii) the Company is in possession of material non-public
information the disclosure of which during the period specified in such notice the Company reasonably believes would not be in the best interests of the Company. 

Section 3.03. Final Shelf Registration. If, subsequent to the fourth anniversary of the IPO Closing Date, (i) all Demand
Registrations available to the Shareholders under Sections 3.01 and 3.02 have been effected, (ii) any Shareholder’s Initial Ownership Common Shares are not freely saleable in accordance with Rule 144 (without any volume or manner of sale
limitations), (iii) such Shareholder owns Common Shares equal to 100% of the number of such Shareholder’s Initial Ownership Common Shares, and (iv) such Shareholder has no contractual right and at no time during the preceding 90 days
has had any contractual right to nominate any candidate for appointment or election to the Company’s board of directors, then, as of such date, such Shareholder shall be 

  
 15 








 
entitled to request the Company to effect a Shelf Registration of all of such Shareholder’s Registrable Securities otherwise in accordance with the terms of Section 3.02, provided,
however, that (w) the Company shall only be required to give notice of such requested Shelf Registration to any Shareholder that, as of the date of such notice, owns Common Shares equal to 100% of the number of such Shareholder’s
Initial Ownership Common Shares, (x) only those Shareholders that satisfy each of the requirements of clauses (ii), (iii) and (iv) of this Section 3.03 shall be permitted to request that the Company also effect a Shelf
Registration of all of such Shareholder’s Registrable Securities, (y) no Shareholder included in the Shelf Registration under this Section 3.03 shall be entitled to request an Underwritten Takedown, and (z) the Company shall use
all commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Shelf Registration to become and remain effective for a period of not less than 120 days (or such shorter period in which all of the Registrable Securities of the Shelf Requesting Shareholders
included in such registration statement shall have actually been sold thereunder or cease to be Registrable Securities). 

Section 3.04. Lock-up Agreements. If any registration of Registrable Securities shall be effected in connection with a
Public Offering after the Restriction Termination Date or any registration of securities to be issued by the Company shall be effected in connection with an underwritten public offering, each Shareholder agrees not to effect any public sale or
distribution, including any sale pursuant to Rule 144, of any Initial Ownership Common Shares (except as part of such public offering) during the period beginning 14 days prior to the effective date of the applicable registration statement or, in
the case of an Underwritten Takedown, 14 days prior to launch of the offering or such later date when the Shareholder receives notice thereof until the earlier of (i) such time as the Company and the lead managing underwriter(s) shall agree and
(ii) 90 days following the effective date of the applicable registration statement or, in the case of a Shelf Registration, 90 days following the pricing of the offering, in each case as may be extended for purposes of compliance with NASD Rule
2711(f)(4), or any successor rule thereto (such period, the “Lock-Up Period” for the applicable registration statement). The Company agrees that any lock-up agreement executed for the benefit of the underwriters of any
such public offering shall supersede the lock-up agreement contained in this Section 3.04, but only with respect to each Shareholder that executes such underwriter lock-up agreement and only in connection with that particular public
offering. 
 Section 3.05. Registration Procedures. Whenever Shareholders request that any Registrable Securities
be registered pursuant to Section 3.01, or the Company prepares a Shelf Registration pursuant to Section 3.02 or Section 3.03, subject to the provisions of such Sections, the Company shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to effect
the registration and the sale of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method of disposition thereof, and, in connection with any such request: 

  
 16 








 (a) The Company shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to prepare and file with the SEC
within 120 days of such request, or such later date as necessary to comply with applicable law, a registration statement on any form for which the Company then qualifies or that counsel for the Company shall deem appropriate and which form shall be
available for the sale of the Registrable Securities to be registered thereunder in accordance with the intended method of distribution thereof, and use all commercially reasonable efforts to cause such filed registration statement to become and
remain effective for a period of not less than 30 days, or in the case of a Shelf Registration, three years (or such shorter period in which all of the Registrable Securities of the Requesting Shareholders or the Shelf Requesting Shareholders, as
the case may be, included in such registration statement shall have actually been sold thereunder or cease to be Registrable Securities). 

(b) In connection with sending a Demand Notice, the Company shall furnish to each participating Shareholder and each underwriter, if any, of
the Registrable Securities covered by a registration statement or prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto (other than any report filed pursuant to the Exchange Act that is incorporated by reference therein), copies of such registration
statement, prospectus, amendment or supplement in the form as proposed to be filed, and thereafter the Company shall furnish to such Shareholder and underwriter, if any, such number of copies of such registration statement, each amendment and
supplement thereto (excluding exhibits thereto and documents incorporated by reference therein unless specifically requested), the prospectus included in such registration statement (including each preliminary prospectus and any summary prospectus)
and any other prospectus filed under Rule 424 or Rule 430A, Rule 430B or Rule 430C under the Securities Act as such Shareholder or underwriter may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by such
Shareholder. 
 (c) After the filing of the registration statement, the Company shall (i) cause the related prospectus to be
supplemented by any required prospectus supplement, and, as so supplemented, to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 under the Securities Act, (ii) comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all Registrable
Securities covered by such registration statement during the applicable period in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the Shareholders thereof set forth in such registration statement or supplement to such prospectus,
(iii) promptly notify each Shareholder holding Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement of any stop order issued or threatened by the SEC or any state securities commission and take all commercially reasonable actions to
prevent the entry of such stop order or to remove it if entered and (iv) promptly notify each such Shareholder when any stop order issued by the SEC or any state securities commission has been lifted. 

(d) The Company shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify the Registrable Securities covered by such registration


  
 17 








 
statement under such other securities or “blue sky” laws of such jurisdictions in the United States as any Shareholder holding such Registrable Securities reasonably (in light of such
Shareholder’s intended plan of distribution) requests; provided that the Company shall not be required to (A) qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this
Section 3.05(d), (B) subject itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction or (C) consent to general service of process in any such jurisdiction. 

(e) The Company shall as promptly as practicable notify each Shareholder holding such Registrable Securities covered by such registration
statement, at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, of the occurrence of an event requiring the preparation of a supplement or amendment to such prospectus so that, as thereafter delivered
to the purchasers of such Registrable Securities, such prospectus will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading,
and as promptly as practicable prepare and make available to each such Shareholder and file with the SEC any such supplement or amendment. 

(f) The Requesting Shareholders or Shelf Requesting Shareholders, as applicable, shall have the right to request that any registration be
effected as an underwritten offering as the method of disposition, and the Company shall comply with such request. In addition, the Company may determine to effect any registration as an underwritten offering, except any registration effected
pursuant to Section 3.03. The Company shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to select the underwriter or underwriters in connection with any Public Offering resulting from any exercise of a Demand Registration (including any
Underwritten Takedown). In connection with any Public Offering, the Company shall enter into customary agreements (including an underwriting agreement in customary form) and take such all other actions as are reasonably required in order to expedite
or facilitate the disposition of such Registrable Securities in any such Public Offering, including, if necessary in the judgment of Company counsel, the engagement of a “qualified independent underwriter” in connection with the
qualification of the underwriting arrangements with FINRA. 
 (g) Upon execution of confidentiality agreements in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to the Company (which the Company agrees to negotiate in good faith), the Company shall, in connection with a Public Offering, make available for inspection by any Shareholder and any underwriter participating in any
disposition pursuant to a registration statement being filed by the Company pursuant to this Section 3.05 and any attorney, accountant or other professional, the retention of which is reasonable under the circumstances, retained by any such
Shareholder or underwriter (collectively, the “Inspectors”), all financial and other records and pertinent corporate documents of the Company (collectively, the “Records”) as shall be reasonably necessary to enable
any of the Inspectors to 

  
 18 








 
exercise its due diligence responsibility, and cause the Company’s officers, directors and employees to supply all information reasonably requested by any Inspectors in connection with such
registration statement. Records that the Company determines, in good faith, to be confidential and that it notifies the Inspectors are confidential shall not be disclosed by the Inspectors unless (i) the disclosure of such Records is necessary
to avoid or correct a material misstatement or omission in such registration statement or (ii) the release of such Records is ordered pursuant to a subpoena or other order from a court of competent jurisdiction. Each Shareholder agrees that
information obtained by it as a result of such inspections shall be deemed confidential and shall not be used by it or its Affiliates as the basis for any market transactions in the Common Shares unless and until such information is made generally
available to the public. Each Shareholder further agrees that, upon learning that disclosure of such Records is sought in a court of competent jurisdiction, it shall give notice to the Company and allow the Company, at its expense, to undertake
appropriate action to prevent disclosure of the Records deemed confidential. 
 (h) In connection with any Public Offering, the Company
shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to furnish to each underwriter, if any, a signed counterpart, addressed to such underwriter, of (i) an opinion or opinions of counsel to the Company and (ii) a comfort letter or comfort letters
from the Company’s independent public accountants, each in customary form and covering such matters of the kind customarily covered by opinions or comfort letters, as the case may be, as the managing underwriter(s) of such Public Offering shall
reasonably request; 
 (i) The Company shall otherwise use all commercially reasonable efforts to comply with all applicable rules and
regulations of the SEC, and make available to its security holders, as soon as reasonably practicable, an earnings statement or such other document covering a period of 12 months, beginning within three months after the effective date of the
registration statement, which earnings statement satisfies the requirements of Rule 158 under the Securities Act. 
 (j) The Company shall
use all commercially reasonable efforts to list all Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement on any securities exchange or quotation system on which any of the Common Shares are then listed or traded. 

(k) The Company may require each Shareholder promptly to furnish in writing to the Company such information regarding the distribution of the
Registrable Securities as the Company may from time to time reasonably request and such other information as may be legally required in connection with such registration. In connection with a Shelf Registration, any Shareholder that does not provide
such information within five Business Days of a request by the Company may have its Registrable Securities excluded from such Shelf Registration. 

  
 19 








 (l) The Company shall cooperate with each seller of Registrable Securities and each underwriter
participating in the disposition of such Registrable Securities and their respective counsel in connection with any filings required to be made with FINRA. 

(m) Each Shareholder agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section
3.05(e), such Shareholder shall forthwith discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to the registration statement covering such Registrable Securities until such Shareholder’s receipt of the copies of the supplemented or
amended prospectus contemplated by Section 3.05(e), and, if so directed by the Company, such Shareholder shall deliver to the Company all copies, other than any permanent file copies then in such Shareholder’s possession, of the most recent
prospectus covering such Registrable Securities at the time of receipt of such notice. If the Company shall give such notice, the Company shall extend the period during which such registration statement shall be maintained effective (including the
period referred to in Section 3.05(a)) by the number of days in the period from and including the date of the giving of notice pursuant to Section 3.05(e) to the date when the Company shall make available to such Shareholder a prospectus
supplemented or amended to conform with the requirements of Section 3.05(e). 
 (n) Each Shareholder agrees that, in connection with any
offering pursuant to this Agreement, it will not prepare or use or refer to, any “free writing prospectus” (as defined in Rule 405 of the Securities Act) without the prior written authorization of the Company, and will not distribute any
written materials in connection with the offer or sale of the Registrable Securities pursuant to any registration statement hereunder other than the prospectus and any such free writing prospectus so authorized. 

Section 3.06. Indemnification by the Company. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Shareholder holding
Registrable Securities covered by a registration statement, its Affiliates, and all officers, directors and employees of the Shareholder and its Affiliates, and each Person, if any, who controls such Shareholder within the meaning of Section 15
of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including reasonable and documented expenses of investigation and reasonable and documented attorneys’
fees and expenses) (collectively, “Damages”) caused by or relating to any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any registration statement or prospectus relating to the
Registrable Securities (as amended or supplemented if the Company shall have furnished any amendments or supplements thereto) or any preliminary prospectus, or caused by or relating to any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material
fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, except insofar as such Damages are caused by or related to any such untrue statement or omission or alleged


  
 20 








 
untrue statement or omission so made based upon information furnished in writing to the Company by such Shareholder or on such Shareholder’s behalf expressly for use therein;
provided that such exception shall not apply if such Shareholder has updated and corrected such information in writing in the event that such previously provided information is not true and correct no less than two Business Days prior to the
Company’s use of such information in any registration statement or prospectus relating to the Registrable Securities, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any preliminary prospectus. The Company also agrees to indemnify any underwriters
of the Registrable Securities, their officers and directors and each Person who controls such underwriters within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act on substantially the same basis as that of
the indemnification of the Shareholders provided in this Section 3.06. 
 Section 3.07. Indemnification by
Participating Shareholders. (a) Each Shareholder holding Registrable Securities included in any registration statement agrees, severally but not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its officers, directors and agents and
each Person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act to the same extent as the indemnity from the Company to such Shareholder provided in Section 3.06, but
only with respect to information furnished in writing by such Shareholder or on such Shareholder’s behalf expressly for use in any registration statement or prospectus relating to the Registrable Securities, or any amendment or supplement
thereto, or any preliminary prospectus; provided that this Section 3.07 shall not apply if such Shareholder updates and corrects such information in writing in the event that such previously provided information is not true and correct no
less than two Business Days prior to the Company’s use of such information in any registration statement or prospectus relating to the Registrable Securities, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any preliminary prospectus. Each
Shareholder holding Registrable Securities included in any registration statement also agrees to indemnify and hold harmless underwriters of the Registrable Securities, their officers and directors and each Person who controls such underwriters
within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act on substantially the same basis as that of the indemnification of the Company provided in this Section 3.07.  

(b) As a condition to including Registrable Securities in any registration statement filed in accordance with Article 3, the Company may
require that it shall have received an undertaking reasonably satisfactory to it from any underwriter to indemnify and hold it harmless to the extent customarily provided by underwriters with respect to similar securities. 

(c) No Shareholder shall be liable under this Section 3.07 for any Damages in excess of the net proceeds realized by such Shareholder in the
sale of Registrable Securities of such Shareholder to which such Damages relate. 

  
 21 








 Section 3.08. Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. If any proceeding
(including any governmental investigation) shall be brought or asserted against any Person in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to Section 3.06 or 3.07, such Person (an “Indemnified Party”) shall
promptly notify the Person against whom such indemnity may be sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) in writing and the Indemnifying Party shall assume the defense thereof, including the employment of counsel reasonably
satisfactory to such Indemnified Party, and shall assume the payment of all reasonable and documented fees and expenses; provided that the failure of any Indemnified Party so to notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying
Party of its obligations hereunder except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure to notify. In any such proceeding, any Indemnified Party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and
expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Party unless (i) the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel, or (ii) in the reasonable judgment of such
Indemnified Party, representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. It is understood that, in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same
jurisdiction, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for the reasonable and documented fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys (in addition to one local counsel per jurisdiction) at any time for all such Indemnified
Parties, and that all such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed as they are incurred. In the case of any such separate firm for the Indemnified Parties, such firm shall be designated in writing by the Indemnified Parties. The Indemnifying Party
shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent, or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the Indemnifying Party shall indemnify and hold harmless such
Indemnified Parties from and against any loss or liability (to the extent stated above) by reason of such settlement or judgment. Without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, no Indemnifying Party shall effect any settlement of any
pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such
Indemnified Party from all liability arising out of such proceeding. 
 Section 3.09. Contribution. (a) If the
indemnification provided for in Section 3.06 or 3.07 is unavailable to the Indemnified Parties in respect of any Damages, then each Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying the Indemnified Parties, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable
by such Indemnified Party as a result of such Damages, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party in connection with the actions, statements or omissions that resulted in such
Damages as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or
alleged untrue 

  
 22 








 
statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission of a material fact, has been taken or made by, or relates to information supplied by, such Indemnifying Party or Indemnified Party,
and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action, statement or omission. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of any Damages shall be deemed to include, subject to
the limitations set forth in this Agreement, any reasonable attorneys’ or other reasonable fees or expenses incurred by such party in connection with any proceeding to the extent such party would have been indemnified for such fees or expenses
if the indemnification provided for in Section 3.06 or 3.07 was available to such party in accordance with its terms. 
 (b) The parties
hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 3.09 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to
in Section 3.09(a). Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 3.09, no Shareholder shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the net proceeds received by such Shareholder in the sale of Registrable Securities
of such Shareholder exceeds the amount of any Damages that such Shareholder has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission, except in the case of fraud by such Shareholder. No
Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. Each Shareholder’s
obligation to contribute pursuant to this Section 3.09 is several in the proportion that the proceeds of the offering received by such Shareholder bears to the total proceeds of the offering received by all such Shareholders and not joint. 

Section 3.10. Participation in Public Offering. No Shareholder may participate in any Public Offering hereunder unless such
Shareholder (a) agrees to sell such Shareholder’s Registrable Securities on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the Company and the managing underwriter(s) and (b) completes and executes all questionnaires,
powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements and the provisions of this Agreement in respect of registration rights. 

Section 3.11. No Transfer of Registration Rights. None of the rights of Shareholders under this Article 3 shall be
assignable by any Shareholder to any Person acquiring Common Shares in any Public Offering. Any such assignments in violation of this Section 3.11 shall be null and void.

 ARTICLE 4 

MISCELLANEOUS 

Section 4.01. Binding Effect; Assignability; Benefit. (a) This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding
upon the parties hereto and their respective heirs, successors, legal representatives and permitted assigns. 
 (b) Neither
this Agreement nor any right, remedy, obligation or liability arising hereunder or by reason hereof shall be assignable by any party hereto pursuant to any Transfer of Registrable Securities or otherwise, except that each Shareholder may assign

irrevocably consents to the jurisdiction of such courts (and of the appropriate appellate courts therefrom) in any such suit, action or proceeding and irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection that it may now or
hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding in any such court or that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. Process in any such suit, action or
proceeding may be served on any party anywhere in the world, whether within or without the 

  
 25 








 
jurisdiction of any such court. Without limiting the foregoing, each party agrees that service of process on such party as provided in Section 4.02 shall be deemed effective service of process on
such party. 
 Section 4.06. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT

breach or threatened breach of this Agreement would be inadequate and, in recognition of this fact, any party to this Agreement, without posting any bond or furnishing other security, and in addition to all other remedies that may be available,
shall be entitled to obtain equitable relief in the form of specific performance, a temporary restraining order, a temporary or permanent injunction or any other equitable remedy that may then be available.

no effect and no party shall have any right or obligation hereunder. 
 Section 4.09. Entire Agreement. This
Agreement constitutes the entire agreement and understanding among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous agreements and understandings, both oral and written, among the
parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof; provided that this Agreement shall have no effect on and shall not supersede the Lock-Up and Compulsory Transfer Deeds. 

Section 4.10. Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent
jurisdiction or other authority to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated
so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party. Upon such a determination, the parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to
effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner so that the 

  
 26 








 
transactions contemplated hereby be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

notice of a proposed underwritten public offering or postponement of an offering or effecting of a registration, is confidential information and that any trading in securities of the Company following receipt of such information may only be done in
compliance with all applicable securities laws.
