#### INTRODUCTION AND USE OF CERTAIN TERMS
*We have prepared this annual report on Form 20-F (this "Form 20-F" or "Annual Report") using a number of conventions, which you should consider when reading the information contained herein. In this Form 20-F, except where the context otherwise requires or where otherwise indicated, references to "Tremor," the "Company," "we," "us," "our," "our company," "our business" and similar references refer to Tremor International Ltd., together with its consolidated subsidiaries as a consolidated entity.*

Tremor is a collection of brands uniting creativity, data and technology across the open internet. Our end-to-end, video-first platform facilitates and optimizes engaging advertising campaigns for brands, media groups and content creators worldwide—enabling powerful partnerships and delivering meaningful results. Our omni-channel capabilities deliver global advertising campaigns across all formats and channels, with an expertise in video format ads on all devices ("Video") and Connected TV ("CTV").

#### PRESENTATION OF FINANCIAL AND OTHER INFORMATION
We publish combined financial statements expressed in U.S. dollars. Our combined financial statements responsive to Item 17 of this Annual Report are prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (the "IASB"). We present our consolidated financial statements in U.S. dollars. All references in this Annual Report to "Israeli currency" and "NIS" refer to New Israeli Shekels, the terms "dollar," "USD" or "$" refer to U.S. dollars.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; This Annual Report includes the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company as of and for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020 prepared in accordance with IFRS. The audited consolidated financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2022 are not directly comparable with the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021 and 2020. This is due to the integration of acquisitions over the course of 2022, 2021 and 2020 and the development of the Company's platform over that time. The Company's audited consolidated financial statements of the Company as of and for the year ended December 31, 2022 include contributions from Amobee Inc., Amobee Asia Pte. Ltd. and Amobee ANZ Pty Ltd. (together with their subsidiaries, collectively "Amobee") for the September 12, 2022 through December 31, 2022 period, following the close of the acquisition of Amobee on September 12, 2022. While we acquired SpearAd on October 19, 2021, SpearAd's revenues following the acquisition through the end of 2021 were immaterial to the Company, and therefore we consider all revenue growth from 2021 to be organic.

Our fiscal year ends on December 31 of each year.

Throughout this Annual Report, we provide a number of key performance indicators used by our management and often used by others in our industry. We define these key performance indicators as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• CTV revenue is revenue derived from CTV devices.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Video revenue is revenue derived from video format ads on all devices.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Contribution ex-TAC is defined as our gross profit plus depreciation and amortization attributable to cost of revenues and cost of
 revenues (exclusive of depreciation and amortization) minus the Performance media cost ("traffic acquisition costs" or "TAC").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Adjusted EBITDA is defined as total comprehensive income for the period
 adjusted for foreign currency translation differences for foreign operations, financing expenses, net, tax benefit, depreciation and amortization,
 stock-based compensation, restructuring, acquisition and IPO-related costs and other income, net.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Adjusted EBITDA margin is defined as Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenue.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• An active customer is defined as an advertiser, buyer, agency, trading desk or third-party demand side platform ("DSP")
 that has used our platform within a trailing 365-day period.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• An active publisher is defined as a publisher or third-party supply side platform ("SSP") that has used our platform
 within a trailing 365-day period.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A unique user is defined as an unduplicated visitor to a publisher's site connected to our platform from both direct and third-party
 sites in a one-month period and "unique users" is the total number of unduplicated visitors to a publisher's site connected
 to our platform from both direct and third-party sites in a one-month period. When a user visits a publisher's site that is connected
 to our platform, we receive the request along with a field that holds a unique ID number that identifies the source from which the request
 came, and as such "unique users" is a summation of unique ID numbers to produce a total of unduplicated visitors to publishers'
 sites connected to our platform.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Contribution ex-TAC retention rate is defined as Contribution ex-TAC generated in a fiscal year from the customers who were existing
 customers as of the last day of the previous fiscal year as a percentage of the Contribution ex-TAC generated in the previous fiscal year
 from the same group of customers. We consider all of our revenue to be recurring.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Net cash is defined as cash and cash equivalents minus long term debt and server leases.

#### TRADEMARKS
We or our licensors have proprietary rights to trademarks, copyrights, trade names or service marks used in this Annual Report that are important to our business, many of which are registered under the applicable intellectual property laws. Solely for convenience, the trademarks, trade names and service marks referred to in this Annual Report may appear without the "<sup>®</sup>" or "<sup>™</sup>" symbols, but such references are not intended to indicate, in any way, that we will not assert, to the fullest extent possible under applicable law, our rights or the rights of the applicable licensor to these trademarks, trade names and service marks. This Annual Report also contains trademarks, copyrights, tradenames and service marks of other companies, which are the property of their respective owners. We do not intend our use or display of other companies' trademarks, copyrights, trade names or service marks to imply a relationship with, or endorsement or sponsorship of us by, any other companies. Each trademark, copyright, trade name or service mark of any other company appearing in this Annual Report is the property of its respective holder.

#### MARKET INFORMATION
Unless otherwise indicated, information in this Annual Report concerning economic conditions, our industry, our markets and our competitive position is based on a variety of sources, including information from independent industry analysts and publications, as well as our own estimates and research.

Our estimates are derived from publicly available information released by third-party sources, as well as data from our internal research, which we believe to be reasonable. None of the independent industry publications used in this Annual Report were prepared on our behalf.

Certain estimates of market opportunity and forecasts of market growth included in this Annual Report may prove to be inaccurate. The estimates and forecasts in this Annual Report relating to the size of our target market, market demand and adoption, capacity to address this demand and pricing may prove to be inaccurate. The addressable market we estimate may not materialize for many years, if ever, and even if the markets in which we compete meet the size estimates in this Annual Report, our business could fail to grow at similar rates, if at all.

Forecasts and other forward-looking information obtained from these sources are subject to the same qualifications and uncertainties as the other forward-looking statements in this Annual Report. See "*Risk Factors*" and "*Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements and Risk Factor Summary*."

#### SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS AND RISK FACTOR SUMMARY
This Annual Report contains certain estimates and "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, the provisions of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Securities Act") and Section 21E of the Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"). Forward-looking statements include financial projections, statements of plans and objectives for future operations, statements of future economic performance, and statements of assumptions relating thereto, including, but not limited to statements regarding: market opportunity; forecasts; market growth and growth strategy; demand; dependence on third parties such as advertisers, publishers and third-party data providers; our technology investment decisions; industry conditions; changes in technology and regulation and the impact thereof; plans with respect to our intellectual property rights; our competition; global and local economic and geopolitical forces, including the COVID-19 pandemic; seasonality; dependence on our sales and support team; our positioning and strategy; digital advertising trends overall; our solutions and platform; customers; our dividend policy and our buyback program; working capital and the sufficiency thereof; financial metrics such as revenue, costs and expenses, including capital expenditures; legal proceedings and tax. Forward-looking statements may appear throughout this report, including without limitation, in Item 3. "*Key Information⸺3.D. Risk Factors*," Item 4. "*Information on the Company*," Item 5. "*Operating and Financial Review and Prospects⸺5.A. Operating Results*." In some cases, these forward-looking statements can be identified by words or phrases such as "may," "might," "will," "could," "would," "should," "expect," "plan," "anticipate," "intend," "seek," "believe," "estimate," "predict," "potential," "continue," "contemplate," "possible" or the negative of these terms or similar expressions. We have based these forward-looking statements largely on our current expectations and projections about future events and financial trends that we believe may affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other risks, assumptions and factors that could cause our actual results or conditions to differ materially from our forward-looking statements include, among others, the items in the following list, which also summarizes some of our most principal risks:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• our success and revenue growth are dependent on adding new advertisers and publishers, effectively educating and training our existing
 advertisers and publishers on how to make full use of our platform and increasing usage of our platform by advertisers and publishers;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• our business depends on our ability to maintain and expand access to advertising spend, including spend from a limited number of
 DSPs, agencies and advertisers;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• our business depends on our ability to maintain and expand access to valuable inventory from publishers, including our largest publishers;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• we may not attract and retain advertisers and publishers if we may fail to make the right investment decisions in our platform, or
 innovate and develop new solutions that are adopted by advertisers and publishers;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• significant parts of our business depend on relationships with data providers for data sets used to deliver targeted campaigns;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• our business depends on our ability to collect, use and disclose certain data, including CTV data, to deliver advertisements. Any
 limitation imposed on our collection, use or disclosure of this data could significantly diminish the value of our platform;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• if the use of third-party "cookies," mobile device IDs, CTV data collection or other tracking technologies is restricted
 without similar or better alternatives (and adoption of such alternatives), our platform's effectiveness could be diminished;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• our failure to meet content and inventory standards and provide services that our advertisers and publishers trust could harm our
 brand and reputation;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• we must grow rapidly to remain a market leader and to accomplish our strategic objective;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the market for programmatic buying for advertising campaigns is relatively new and evolving;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• if we fail to detect or prevent fraud on our platform, or malware intrusion into the systems or devices of our publishers and their
 consumers, publishers could lose confidence in our platform and we could face legal claims;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the rejection of digital advertising by consumers through opt-in, opt-out or ad-blocking technologies or other means;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• our ability to scale our platform infrastructure to support anticipated growth and transaction volume;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• disruptions to service from our third-party data center hosting facilities and cloud computing and hosting providers could impair
 the delivery of our services;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• potential liability and harm to our business based on the human factor of inputting information into our platform;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• any failure to protect our intellectual property rights;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• if non-proprietary technology, software, products and services that we use are unavailable, have future terms we cannot agree to
 or do not perform as we expect;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the overall demand for advertising;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the macroeconomic headwinds including rising inflation, rising interest
 rates and global supply chain constraints and the residual impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• any decrease in the use of the advertising or publishing channels that we primarily depend on, or failure to expand into emerging
 channels;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• if CTV develops in ways that prevent advertisements from being delivered to consumers;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the competitive nature of the market in which we participate;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• seasonal fluctuations in advertising activity;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the effective growth and training of our sales and support teams;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• we are a party to a credit agreement which contains a number of covenants that may restrict our current and future operations and
 could adversely affect our ability to execute business needs;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• other risks relating to our employees or our location in Israel;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• other risks relating to legal or regulatory issues; and other risks associated with our financial profile and our American Depositary
 Shares ("ADSs").

These risks factors are discussed in more detail in this Annual Report, including under Item 3. "*Key Information – 3.D. Risk Factors*." The forward-looking statements in this Annual Report are only predictions. These statements are inherently uncertain, subject to risks and uncertainties, some of which cannot be predicted or quantified, and investors are cautioned not to unduly rely upon these statements. The events and circumstances reflected in our forward-looking statements may not be achieved or occur and actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements.

In addition, statements that "we believe" and similar statements reflect our beliefs and opinions on the relevant subject. These statements are based upon information available to us as of the date of this Annual Report, and while we believe such information forms a reasonable basis for such statements, such information may be limited or incomplete, and our statements should not be read to indicate that we have conducted an exhaustive inquiry into, or review of, all potentially available relevant information.

You should read this Annual Report and the documents that we reference in this Annual Report and have been filed as exhibits to this Annual Report with the understanding that our actual future results, levels of activity, performance and achievements may be materially different from what we expect. We qualify all of our forward-looking statements by these cautionary statements.

The estimates and forward-looking statements contained in this Annual Report speak only as of the date of this Annual Report. Except as required by applicable law, we undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any estimates or forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors, including the risks faced by us described below and elsewhere in this Annual Report.*

*Additional risks not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair our business operations.*

#### Risks Relating to Our Business
***Our success and revenue growth are dependent on adding new advertisers and publishers, effectively educating and training our existing advertisers and publishers on how to make full use of our platform and increasing usage of our platform by advertisers and publishers.***

Our success and sustainability are dependent on regularly adding new advertisers and publishers and increasing their usage of our platform. Our contracts and relationships with advertisers and publishers generally do not include long-term or exclusive obligations requiring them to use our platform or maintain or increase their use of our platform. Advertisers and publishers typically have relationships with numerous providers and can use both our platform and those of our competitors without incurring significant costs or disruption. They may also choose to decrease their overall advertising spend for any reason, including if they do not believe they are receiving a sufficient return. Accordingly, we must continually work to add new advertisers and publishers to our customer base, retain our existing advertisers and publishers, increase their usage of our platform and capture a larger share of their advertising spend.

We may not be successful at educating and training advertisers and publishers, especially new ones, on how to use our platform in order for them to most benefit from our platform and increase their usage. If these efforts are unsuccessful or advertisers or publishers decide not to maintain or increase their usage of our platform for any other reason, or if we fail to attract new advertisers or publishers, our revenue could fail to grow or may decline, which would materially and adversely harm our business, operating results and financial condition.

***Our business depends on our ability to maintain and expand access to advertising spend, including spend from a limited number of DSPs, agencies and advertisers.***

Our business depends on our ability to maintain and expand our access to advertising spend from advertisers through DSPs, as well as agencies and direct advertisers (that execute their purchases through DSPs), seeking to purchase impressions from our publishers. A limited number of large advertising customers may account for a significant portion of our revenue.

For the year ended December 31, 2022, one buyer represents 10.7% of the revenue. For the year ended December 31, 2021 one buyer represents 13.6% of revenue. For the year ended December 31, 2020, no individual buyer accounted for more than 10% of revenue. As of December 31, 2022, two buyers accounted for 15.7% and 14.1% of trade receivables, while as of December 31, 2021, two buyers accounted for 17.1% and 16.9% of trade receivables. As of December 31, 2022, one vendor accounted for 12.7% of trade payables, and as of December 31, 2021, no individual vendor accounted for more than 10% of trade payables.

------

Our master service agreements with most DSPs and other customers automatically renew each year for successive one-year terms. However, either party may generally terminate for convenience upon providing 30-day prior written notice. We expect to depend upon these few DSPs and advertising customers for a large percentage of impressions purchased for the foreseeable future. Any disruptions in our relationships with DSPs, agencies or advertisers could harm our business, results of operations and financial condition. To support our continued growth, we will seek to expand upon current levels of utilization with these DSPs, agencies and advertisers.

In general, we have no minimum commitments from advertisers, agencies or DSPs to spend on our platform, so the amount of demand available to us can change at any time, and we cannot assure you that we will have access to a consistent volume or quality of advertising spend or demand. If an advertiser or DSP representing a significant portion of the demand in our platform decides to materially reduce use of our services, it could cause an immediate and significant decline in our revenue and profitability and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

#### Our business depends on our ability to maintain and expand access to valuable inventory from publishers, including our largest publishers.
Our business depends on our access to valuable advertising inventory. We depend upon publishers, including channel partners, which aggregate large numbers of smaller publishers, to provide advertising inventory which we can offer to prospective advertisers. A relatively small number of publishers have historically accounted for a significant portion of the advertising inventory sold on our platform, as well as a significant portion of our revenue, including a relatively small number of channel partners. To support our continued growth, we will seek to add additional publishers to our platform and to expand current utilization with our existing publishers.

In general, our relationships with publishers do not contain minimum commitments. The amount, quality and cost of inventory available on our platform can change at any time, and we cannot assure you that we will have access to a consistent volume or quality of inventory at a reasonable cost, or at all. Any disruptions in our relationships with publishers or our largest channel partners could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. If we cannot retain or add individual publishers with valuable inventory, or if such publishers decide not to make their valuable inventory available on our platform, then advertisers may be less inclined to use our platform, which could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

***If we fail to make the right investment decisions in our platform, or if we fail to innovate and develop new solutions that are adopted by advertisers and publishers, we may not attract and retain advertisers and publishers, which could have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.***

We face intense competition in the marketplace and are confronted by rapidly changing technology, evolving industry standards, consumer preferences, regulatory changes and the frequent introduction of new solutions by our competitors to which we must adapt and address. We need to continuously update our platform and the technology in which we invest and develop, including our machine learning and other proprietary algorithms, in order to attract publishers and advertisers and stay ahead of changes in technology, evolving industry standards and regulatory requirements. Our platform is complex and new solutions can require a significant investment of time and resources to develop, test, introduce and enhance. These activities can take longer than we expect and we may not make the right decisions regarding our pursuit of these investments. New formats and channels, such as mobile header bidding and CTV, present unique challenges and our success in new formats and channels depends upon our ability to integrate them with our platform. If our mobile and video solutions or our CTV solutions are not widely adopted by advertisers and publishers, we may not retain advertisers and publishers. In addition, new demands from advertisers or publishers, superior offerings by competitors, changes in technology, or new industry standards or regulatory requirements could render our platform or our existing solutions less effective and require us to make unanticipated changes to our platform or business model. Furthermore, our focus on our end-to-end platform may decrease our responsiveness and agility to respond to changes or innovations specific to either our DSP or SSP solutions. Our failure to adapt to a rapidly changing market, anticipate changing demand, or attract and retain advertisers or publishers would cause our revenue or revenue growth rate to decline and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

#### Significant parts of our business depend on relationships with data providers for data sets used to deliver targeted campaigns.
Our ability to deliver targeted advertising campaigns depends on our ability to acquire effective data sets, which we do through a combination of proprietary data sets as well as data sets that we purchase from third parties. If any third-party data providers decide not to make data sets available to us, decide to increase their price or place significant restrictions on the use of their data, we may not be able to replace this with our own proprietary data sets or those of other third-party providers that satisfy our requirements in a timely and cost-effective manner. In addition, some data set providers in the industry may enter into exclusivity arrangements with our competitors, which could limit our access to a meaningful supply of data and give them a competitive advantage. Any limitations on access to these third-party data sets could impair our ability to deliver effective solutions, which could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

------

***Our business depends on our ability to collect, use and disclose certain data, including CTV data, to deliver advertisements. Any limitation imposed on our collection, use or disclosure of this data could significantly diminish the value of our platform and cause us to lose publishers, advertisers and revenue. Consumer tools, regulatory restrictions and technological limitations all threaten our ability to use and disclose data.***

As we process transactions through our platform, we collect large amounts of data about advertisements and where they are placed, such as consumer, advertiser and publisher preferences for media and advertising content. We also collect automatic content recognition data and data on ad specifications such as ad placement, size and format, ad pricing and auction activity such as price floors, bid response behavior and clearing prices. Further, we collect certain data from consumers that, while not identifying the individual, does include browser, device location and characteristics, online browsing behavior, exposure to and interaction with advertisements, and inferential data about purchase intentions and preferences. We collect this data through various means, including from our own systems, pixels that publishers allow us to place on their websites to track consumer visits, software development kits installed in mobile applications and smart TVs, cookies and other tracking technologies. Our publishers, advertisers and data providers may also choose to provide us with their proprietary data about consumers.

We aggregate this data and analyze it in order to enhance our services, including the pricing, placement and delivery of advertisements. As part of our real-time analytics service offering, we also share the data, or analyses based on such data, with our publishers and advertisers. Our ability to collect, use and share data about advertising transactions and consumer behavior is critical to the value of our services. There are many technical challenges relating to our ability to collect, aggregate, use and store the data, and we cannot assure you that we will be able to do so effectively. Evolving regulatory standards, high profile investigations, and increased regulatory scrutiny of AdTech frameworks, cookies, and online consent mechanisms more broadly could place restrictions on the collection, aggregation, use and storage of information, which could result in a material increase in the cost of collecting or otherwise obtaining certain kinds of data and could limit the ways in which we may use or disclose information. There has been increased regulations and enforcement activity in the United States, United Kingdom and Europe involving the AdTech industry. For instance, a recent decision by the Belgium Data Protection Authority concerning the "Transparency and Consent Framework" ("TCF") (a widely used mechanism to manage user preferences relating to targeted online advertising, developed by the Interactive Advertising Bureau (the "IAB"), an AdTech trade body), found that the TCF violates the GDPR and fined the IAB EUR 250,000. The IAB has been given a period of time to take corrective measures to bring the TCF into compliance with GDPR requirements and we are monitoring developments with respect to this decision. Because the TCF is the principal mechanism by which data subjects grant consent to AdTech providers, and because consent is in most cases generally considered to be necessarily for behavioral advertising to occur pursuant to the GDPR, the outcome of this proceeding could impact the amount of information we (and others in the AdTech ecosystem) are able to use on our platforms. Further, the application of similar consent standards to the CTV and mobile ecosystems continues to evolve and absent substantial adoption of the TCF or a similar cohesive standard for expression and storage of data subject preferences, the amount of information we can access and use for advertising through those channels may decrease. Similarly, consumers can, with increasing ease, implement practices or technologies that may limit our ability to collect and use data to deliver advertisements, or otherwise inhibit the effectiveness of our platform, including opt out capabilities offered by various mobile applications, CTV manufacturers and web browsers, as well as data deletion request mechanisms offered by us to consumers, following IDEA and GDPR protocols. Although our publishers and advertisers generally permit us to aggregate and use data from advertising placements, subject to certain restrictions, existing or future publishers or advertisers might decide to restrict our collection or use of their data or might determine that they cannot comply with legal requirements imposed on them in relation to the transfer or information or information rights to us. Any limitations could impair our ability to deliver effective solutions, which could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

***If the use of third-party "cookies," mobile device IDs, CTV data collection or other tracking technologies is restricted without similar or better alternatives (and adoption of such alternatives), our platform's effectiveness could be diminished and our business, results of operations and financial condition could be adversely affected.***

We use "cookies," or small text files placed on consumer devices when an Internet browser is used, as well as mobile device identifiers and CTV data collection devices, to gather data that enables our platform to be more effective. Our cookies, mobile device IDs and CTV data collection devices do not identify consumers directly but rather record information, such as when a consumer views or clicks on an advertisement, when a consumer uses a mobile app, the consumer's location and browser or other device information. Publishers and partners may also choose to share their information about consumers' interests or give us permission to use their cookies and mobile device IDs. We use data from cookies, mobile device IDs, CTV data collection devices and other tracking technologies to help advertisers decide whether to bid on, and how to price, an ad impression in a certain location, at a given time, for a particular consumer. Without cookies, mobile device IDs, CTV data collection devices and other tracking technology data, transactions processed through our platform would be executed with less insight into consumer activity, reducing the precision of advertisers' decisions about which impressions to purchase for an advertising campaign and limiting our reporting capabilities. This could make placement of advertising through our platform less valuable and harm our revenue. If our ability to use cookies, mobile device IDs, CTV data collection devices or other tracking technologies is limited, we may be required to develop or obtain additional applications and technologies to compensate for the lack of cookies, mobile device IDs, CTV data collection devices and other tracking technology data, which could be time consuming or costly to develop, less effective and subject to additional regulation.

------

***Our failure to meet content and inventory standards and provide services that our advertisers and publishers trust could harm our brand and reputation and negatively impact our business, operating results and financial condition.***

We do not provide or control the content of advertisements or that of the digital media providing inventory. Advertisers provide the advertising content and publishers provide the inventory content. Both advertisers and publishers are concerned about being associated with content they consider inappropriate, competitive or inconsistent with their brands, or illegal, and they are hesitant to spend money or make inventory available without guaranteed brand and content security. Consequently, our reputation depends, in part, on providing services that our advertisers and publishers trust and we have contractual obligations to meet certain content and inventory standards. We use commercially reasonable efforts to contractually prohibit the misuse of our platform by agencies (and their marketer customers) and publishers; however, we are not always successful in achieving a fulsome level of protection. Despite such efforts, advertisers may inadvertently purchase inventory that proves to be unacceptable for their campaigns, in which case we may not be able to collect revenue or recoup the amounts paid to publishers. Furthermore, the standards by which an advertiser or a publisher may consider an advertising placement or inventory content offensive or inappropriate are constantly changing and our contractual agreements are not always able to anticipate fully the preferences of our advertisers and publishers. Our advertisers could intentionally run campaigns that do not meet the standards of our publishers or attempt to use illegal or unethical targeting practices or seek to display advertising in jurisdictions that do not permit such advertising or in which the regulatory environment is uncertain, in which case our supply of ad inventory from such suppliers could be jeopardized.

***We must grow rapidly to remain a market leader and to accomplish our strategic objectives. If we fail to grow, or fail to manage our growth effectively, the value of our company may decline.***

The advertising technology market is dynamic, and our success depends upon the continued adoption of programmatic advertising and our ability to develop innovative new technologies and solutions for the evolving needs of advertisers and digital media property owners. We need to grow significantly to develop the market reach and scale necessary to compete effectively with large competitors. This growth depends to a significant degree upon the quality of our strategic vision and planning. The advertising market is evolving rapidly, and if we make strategic errors, there is a significant risk that we will lose our competitive position and be unable to recover and achieve our objectives. Our ability to grow requires access to, and prudent deployment of, capital for hiring, expansion of physical infrastructure to run our platform, acquisition of companies or technologies, and development and integration of supporting sales, marketing, finance, administrative and managerial infrastructure. Further, the growth we are pursuing may strain our resources. If we are not able to innovate and grow successfully, the value of our business may be adversely affected.

***The market for programmatic buying for advertising campaigns is relatively new and evolving. If this market develops slower or differently than we expect, our business, operating results and financial condition could be adversely affected.***

We derive revenue from the programmatic advertising on our end-to-end platform. We expect that programmatic advertising will continue to be our primary source of revenue for the foreseeable future and that our revenue growth will largely depend on increasing our customers' usage of our platform. While the market for programmatic advertising for desktop and mobile is relatively established, the market in other channels is still emerging, and our current and potential customers may not shift quickly enough to programmatic advertising from other buying methods, which would reduce our growth potential. If the market for programmatic advertising deteriorates or develops more slowly than we expect, it could reduce demand for our platform and our business, growth prospects and financial condition could be adversely affected.

***If we fail to detect or prevent fraud on our platform, or malware intrusion into the systems or devices of our publishers and their consumers, publishers could lose confidence in our platform and we could face legal claims that could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.***

We may be subject to fraudulent or malicious activities undertaken by persons seeking to use our platform for improper purposes. For example, someone may attempt to divert or artificially inflate advertiser purchases through our platform, or to disrupt or divert the operation of the systems and devices of our publishers, and their consumers in order to misappropriate information, generate fraudulent billings or stage cyberattacks, or for other illicit purposes. We use our proprietary technology and third-party services to, and we participate in industry co-ops that work to, detect malware and other content issues as well as click fraud (whether by humans or software known as "bots") and to block fraudulent inventory. Preventing and combating fraud is an industry-wide issue that requires constant vigilance, as well as a balancing of cost effectiveness and risk, and we cannot guarantee that we will be successful in our efforts to combat fraud. We may provide access to inventory that is objectionable to our advertisers or we may serve advertising that contains malware or objectionable content to our publishers, which could harm our and our advertisers' and publishers' reputation, causing them to scale-back or terminate their relationship with us, or otherwise negatively impact our business, operating results and financial condition.

***If the use of digital advertising is rejected by consumers, through opt-in, opt-out or ad-blocking technologies or other means, it could have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.***

Consumers can, with increasing ease, implement technologies that limit our ability to collect and use data to deliver advertisements, or otherwise limit the effectiveness of our platform. Cookies may be deleted or blocked by consumers. The most commonly used Internet browsers allow consumers to modify their browser settings to block first-party cookies (placed directly by the publisher or website owner that the consumer intends to interact with) or third-party cookies (placed by parties, like us, that have no direct relationship with the consumer), and some browsers block third-party cookies by default. For example, Apple recently moved to "opt-in" privacy models, requiring consumers to voluntarily choose to receive targeted ads, which may reduce the value of inventory on its iOS mobile application platform. Many applications and other devices allow consumers to avoid receiving advertisements by paying for subscriptions or other downloads. Mobile devices using Android and iOS operating systems limit the ability of cookies to track consumers while they are using applications other than their web browser on the device. As a consequence, fewer of our cookies or publishers' cookies may be set in browsers or be accessible in mobile devices, which could adversely affect our business.

------

Some consumers also download free or paid "ad-blocking" software on their computers or mobile devices, not only for privacy reasons but also to counteract the adverse effect advertisements can have on the consumer experience, including increased load times, data consumption and screen overcrowding. If more consumers adopt these measures, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be adversely affected. Ad-blocking technologies could have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition if they reduce the volume or effectiveness and value of advertising. In addition, some ad blocking technologies only block ads that are targeted through use of third-party data, while allowing ads based on first- party data (i.e., data owned by the publisher). These ad blockers could place us at a disadvantage because we rely heavily on third-party data, while some large competitors have troves of first-party data they use to direct advertising. Other technologies allow ads that are deemed "acceptable," which could be defined in ways that place us or our publishers at a disadvantage, particularly if such technologies are controlled or influenced by our competitors. Even if ad blockers do not ultimately have an adverse effect on our business, investor concerns about ad blockers could cause our share price to decline.

***We must scale our platform infrastructure to support anticipated growth and transaction volume. If we fail to do so, we may limit our ability to process inventory and we may lose revenue.***

Our business depends on processing inventory in milliseconds, and we must handle an increasingly large volume of such transactions. The addition of new solutions, such as header bidding in mobile and CTV formats, support of evolving advertising formats, handling and use of increasing amounts of data, and overall growth in impressions place growing demands upon our platform infrastructure. If we are unable to grow our platform to support substantial increases in the number of transactions and in the amount of data we process, on a high-performance, cost-effective basis, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be adversely affected.

***Disruptions to service from our third-party data center hosting facilities and cloud computing and hosting providers could impair the delivery of our services and harm our business.***

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; A significant portion of our business relies upon hardware and services that are hosted, managed and controlled by third-party co-location providers for our data centers, and we are dependent on these third parties to provide continuous power, cooling, Internet connectivity and physical and technological security for our servers. In the event that these third-party providers experience any interruption in operations or cease business for any reason, or if we are unable to agree on satisfactory terms for continued hosting relationships, we would be forced to enter into a relationship with other service providers or assume some hosting responsibilities ourselves. Even a disruption as brief as a few minutes could have a negative impact on marketplace activities and could result in a loss of revenue. These facilities may be located in areas prone to natural disasters and may experience catastrophic events such as earthquakes, fires, floods, power loss, telecommunications failures, public health crises and similar events. They may also be subject to break-ins, sabotage, intentional acts of vandalism, cyber-attacks and similar misconduct. Although we have made certain disaster recovery and business continuity arrangements, such events could cause damage to, or failure of, our systems generally, or those of the third-party cloud computing and hosting providers, which could result in disruptions to our service.

#### We face potential liability and harm to our business based on the human factor of inputting information into our platform.
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; We or our customers set up campaigns on our platform using a number of available variables. While our platform includes several checks and balances, it is possible for human error to result in significant over-spending. We offer a number of protections such as daily or overall spending caps, but despite these protections, the ability for overspend exists. For example, campaigns which last for a period of time can be set to pace evenly or as quickly as possible. If a customer with a high credit limit enters an incorrect daily cap with a campaign set to a rapid pace, it is possible for a campaign to accidently go significantly over budget. While our customer contracts state that customers are responsible for media purchased through our platform, we are ultimately responsible for paying the inventory providers and we may be unable to collect when such issues occur.

***We are subject to cybersecurity risks to operational systems, security systems, infrastructure and customer data processed by us or third-party vendors or suppliers and any material failure, weakness, interruption, cyber event, incident or breach of security could prevent us from effectively operating our business.***

We expect to continue to be exposed to actual and attempted cyber-attacks of our IT networks, such as through phishing scams and ransomware. For example, we are at risk for interruptions, outages and breaches of: operational systems, including business, financial, accounting, product development, data processing or production processes, owned by us or our third-party vendors or suppliers; facility security systems, owned by us or our third-party vendors or suppliers; in-product technology owned by us or our third-party vendors or suppliers; the integrated software in our solutions; or customer or driver data that we process or our third-party vendors or suppliers process on our behalf. Such cyber incidents could materially disrupt operational systems; result in loss of intellectual property, trade secrets or other proprietary or competitively sensitive information; compromise certain information of customers, employees, suppliers, drivers or others; jeopardize the security of our facilities; or affect the performance of in-product technology and the integrated software solutions. A cyber incident could be caused by disasters, insiders (through inadvertence or with malicious intent) or malicious third parties (including nation-states or nation-state supported actors) using sophisticated, targeted methods to circumvent firewalls, encryption and other security defenses, including hacking, fraud, trickery or other forms of deception. The techniques used by cyber attackers change frequently and may be difficult to detect for long periods of time. Although we maintain information technology measures designed to protect us against intellectual property theft, data breaches and other cyber incidents, such measures will require updates and improvements, and we cannot guarantee that such measures will be adequate to detect, prevent or mitigate cyber incidents. The implementation, maintenance, segregation and improvement of these systems requires significant management time, support and cost. Moreover, there are inherent risks associated with developing, improving, expanding and updating current systems, including the disruption of our data management, procurement, production execution, finance, supply chain and sales and service processes. These risks may affect our ability to manage our data and inventory, procure parts or supplies or produce, sell, deliver and service our solutions, adequately protect our intellectual property or achieve and maintain compliance with, or realize available benefits under, applicable laws, regulations and contracts. We cannot be sure that the systems upon which we rely, including those of our third-party vendors or suppliers, will be effectively implemented, maintained or expanded as planned. If we do not successfully implement, maintain or expand these systems as planned, our operations may be disrupted, our ability to accurately and timely report our financial results could be impaired, and deficiencies may arise in our internal control over financial reporting, which may impact our ability to certify our financial results. Moreover, our proprietary information or intellectual property could be compromised or misappropriated and our reputation may be adversely affected. If these systems do not operate as we expect them to, we may be required to expend significant resources to make corrections or find alternative sources for performing these functions.

------

A significant cyber incident could impact production capability, harm our reputation, cause us to breach our contracts with other parties or subject us to regulatory actions or litigation, any of which could materially affect our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results. In addition, our insurance coverage for cyber-attacks may not be sufficient to cover all the losses we may experience as a result of a cyber incident. Any problems with our third-party cloud hosting providers, whether due to cyber security failures or other causes, could result in lengthy interruptions in our business.

#### Any failure to protect our intellectual property rights could negatively impact our business.
We regard the protection of our intellectual property, which includes trade secrets, copyrights, trademarks and domain names, as critical to our success. We strive to protect our intellectual property rights by relying on federal, state and common law rights, as well as contractual restrictions. We generally enter into confidentiality and invention assignment agreements with our employees and contractors and confidentiality agreements with parties with whom we conduct business in order to limit access to, and disclosure and use of, our proprietary information. However, we may not be successful in executing these agreements with every party who has access to our confidential information or contributes to the development of our intellectual property. Those agreements that we do execute may be breached, and we may not have adequate remedies for any such breach. These contractual arrangements and the other steps we have taken to protect our intellectual property may not prevent the misappropriation of our intellectual property or deter independent development of similar intellectual property by others. Breaches of the security of our solutions, databases or other resources could expose us to a risk of loss or unauthorized disclosure of information collected, stored or transmitted for or on behalf of advertisers or publishers, or of cookies, data stored in cookies, other user information or other proprietary or confidential information.

We register certain domain names, trademarks and service marks in the United States and in certain locations outside the United States. We also rely upon common law protection for certain marks, such as "Tremor Video." Any of our patents, trademarks or other intellectual property rights may be challenged by others or invalidated through administrative process or litigation. Our competitors and others could attempt to capitalize on our brand recognition by using domain names or business names similar to ours. Domain names and trademarks similar to ours have been registered in the United States and elsewhere. We may be unable to prevent third parties from acquiring or using domain names and other trademarks that infringe on, are similar to, or otherwise decrease the value of our brands, trademarks or service marks. Effective trade secret, copyright, trademark, domain name and patent protection are expensive to develop and maintain, both in terms of initial and ongoing registration requirements and the costs of defending our rights. We may be required to protect our intellectual property in an increasing number of jurisdictions, a process that is expensive and may not be successful or which we may not pursue in every location. We may, over time, increase our investment in protecting our intellectual property through additional filings that could be expensive and time-consuming.

#### Risks Relating to the Market in Which We Operate
***If the non-proprietary technology, software, products and services that we use are unavailable, have future terms we cannot agree to or do not perform as we expect, our business, operating results and financial condition could be harmed.***

We depend on data sets and various technology, software, products and services from third parties or available as open source, including for critical features and functionality of our platform to deliver targeted advertising campaigns. Our ability to obtain necessary data licenses on commercially reasonable terms is critical to the success of our platform and we could suffer material adverse consequences if we are unable to obtain data through our integrations with data suppliers or if the cost of obtaining such data materially increases. Identifying, negotiating, complying with and integrating with third-party terms and technology are complex, costly and time- consuming matters. Further, in the course of negotiations with third-party providers, we may be required to provide material upfront minimum purchase commitments in order to secure favorable contractual terms. Failure by third-party providers to acquire relevant data sets, or to maintain, support or secure their technology either generally or for our accounts specifically, or downtime, errors or defects in their products or services, could materially and adversely impact our platform, our administrative obligations or other areas of our business. Furthermore, changes in the costs of third-party services may result in us having to replace any third-party providers or their data sets, technology, products or services and could result in outages or difficulties in our ability to provide our services.

------

***Our revenue and results of operations are highly dependent on the overall demand for advertising. Factors that affect the amount of advertising spending, such as economic downturns, inflation, supply constraints and the COVID-19 pandemic, can make it difficult to predict our revenue and could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.***

Our business depends on the overall demand for advertising and on the economic health of our current and prospective advertisers. Recently, the economic health of advertisers has been impacted by the macroeconomic headwinds including rising inflation, rising interest rates and global supply chain constraints. Our business has been and may be impacted in the future by the COVID-19 pandemic and the resulting economic uncertainty in the United States and global economy beginning in the first and second quarters of 2020, and as a result, advertising demand on our platform decreased in the first half of 2020, with recovery in the second half of 2020 and 2021, although some verticals have still not recovered. Many advertisers also suffered and continue to do so as a result of global supply chain constraints which materially impacted certain verticals. Many marketing budgets, particularly those hardest hit by the pandemic such as travel, retail and hospitality, and those impacted by supply chain constraints, decreased or paused their advertising spending as a response to the economic uncertainty, decline in business activity due to macroeconomic conditions and COVID-19 related impacts which have, and may continue to have, a negative impact on our revenue and results of operations. Various macroeconomic factors could cause advertisers to reduce their advertising budgets, and may include the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• adverse economic conditions, rising inflation and interest rates and general uncertainty about an economic downturn, particularly
 in North America where we do most of our business including recession and depression concerns;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• instability in political or market conditions generally;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• changes in the pricing policies of publishers and competitors;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• any changes in tax treatment of advertising expenses and the deductibility thereof;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the seasonal nature of advertising spend on digital advertising campaigns; and changes and uncertainty in the regulatory and business
 environment (for example, when Apple or Google change policies for their browsers and operating systems).

Reductions in overall advertising spending as a result of these factors could make it difficult to predict our revenue and could adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.

#### Our global operations subject us to certain risks beyond our control and may adversely affect our financial results.
With operations in approximately 14 countries and territories around the world, we are subject to numerous risks outside of our control, including risks arising from political unrest and other political events, including the invasion of Ukraine by Russia, and increasing tensions between China and Taiwan, regional and international hostilities and international responses to these hostilities, strikes and other worker unrest, natural disasters, the impact of global climate change, acts of war, terrorism, international conflict, severe weather conditions, pandemics, including COVID-19, and other global health emergencies, disruptions of infrastructure and utilities, cyberattacks, and other events beyond our control. Although it is not possible to predict such events or their consequences, these events could materially adversely affect our reputation, business and financial results.

***The extent to which the lingering impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic or other infectious disease pandemics that may occur, including the resulting global economic uncertainty, and measures taken in response to pandemics, could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and difficult to predict.***

Our business and operations have been and could in the future be adversely affected by health epidemics, such as the global COVID-19 pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic and efforts to control its spread curtailed the movement of people, goods and services worldwide, and significantly impacted economic activity and financial markets. Many marketers, particularly those in the travel, retail and hospitality industries, decreased or paused their advertising spending as a response to the economic uncertainty, decline in business activity, and other COVID-19-related impacts, which negatively impacted, and may continue to negatively impact, our revenue and results of operations, the extent and duration of which we may not be able to accurately predict. The spread of an infectious disease may also result in, and, in the case of the COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in, regional quarantines, labor shortages or stoppages, changes in consumer purchasing patterns, disruptions to service providers' ability to deliver data on a timely basis, or at all, and overall economic instability.

A recession, depression, excessive inflation or other sustained adverse market events resulting from the spread of COVID-19, or other infectious disease pandemics that may occur, could materially and adversely affect our business and that of our customers or potential customers. Typically, we are contractually required to pay advertising inventory and data suppliers within a negotiated period of time, regardless of whether our customers pay us on time, or at all, and we may not be able to renegotiate better terms. As a result, our financial condition and results of operations may be adversely impacted if the business or financial condition of advertisers and marketers is negatively affected by any future adverse market events from COVID-19 or any other infectious disease.

------

The economic uncertainty caused by the COVID-19 pandemic has made and may continue to make it difficult for us to forecast revenue and operating results and to make decisions regarding operational cost structures and investments. Our business depends on the overall demand for advertising and on the economic health of advertisers and publishers that benefit from our platform. As we experienced with the COVID-19 pandemic, economic downturns or unstable market conditions may cause advertisers to decrease their advertising budgets, which could reduce usage of our platform and adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition.

Our results may also fluctuate unpredictably in connection with a recovery from the pandemic and a return to non-pandemic business conditions. We cannot predict the impact of a post-pandemic recovery on the economy, advertisers or consumer media consumption patterns or the degree to which certain trends, such as the growth in demand for CTV, will continue.

***Any decrease in the use of the advertising or publishing channels that we primarily depend on, or failure to expand into emerging channels, could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.***

The future growth of our business could be constrained by the level of acceptance and expansion of emerging channels, as well as the continued use and growth of existing channels in which our capabilities are more established. Our revenue growth may depend on our ability to expand within mobile and, in particular, CTV, and we have been, and are continuing to, enhance such channels. We may not be able to accurately predict changes in overall advertiser demand for the channels in which we operate and cannot assure you that our investment in formats will correspond to any such trends. For example, we cannot predict whether the growth in demand for our CTV offering will continue. Any decrease in the use of existing channels, whether due to advertisers or publishers losing confidence in the value or effectiveness of such channels, regulatory restrictions or other causes, or any inability to further penetrate CTV or enter new and emerging advertising channels, could adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.

***If CTV develops in ways that prevent advertisements from being delivered to consumers, our business, results of operations and financial condition may be adversely affected.***

#### The market in which we participate is intensely competitive, and we may not be able to compete successfully with our current or future competitors.
We operate in a highly competitive and rapidly changing industry. We expect competition to persist and intensify in the future, which could harm our ability to increase revenue and our market share and maintain profitability. New technologies and methods of buying advertising present a dynamic competitive challenge, as market participants develop and offer new products and services, such as analytics, automated media buying and exchanges, aimed at capturing advertising spend or disrupting the digital marketing landscape. Further, our competitors may begin offering similar products or services to those we currently offer, including our end-to-end platform, and our ability to compete effectively could be significantly compromised.

We may also face competition from new companies entering the market, including large established companies and companies that we do not yet know about or do not yet exist. If existing or new companies develop, market or resell competitive high-value products or services that result in additional competition for advertising spend or advertising inventory or if they acquire one of our existing competitors or form a strategic alliance with one of our competitors, our ability to compete effectively could be significantly compromised and our results of operations could be harmed.

Our current and potential competitors may have significantly more financial, technical, marketing and other resources than we have, which may allow them to devote greater resources to the development, promotion, sale and support of their products and services. They may also have more extensive advertiser bases and broader publisher relationships than we have and may be better positioned to execute on advertising conducted over certain channels, such as social media, mobile and video. Some of our competitors may have a longer operating history and greater name recognition. As a result, these competitors may be better able to respond quickly to new technologies, develop deeper advertiser relationships or offer services at lower prices. Any of these developments would make it more difficult for us to sell our platform and could result in increased pricing pressure, increased sales and marketing expense, or the loss of market share.

------

#### Seasonal fluctuations or market changes in advertising activity could have a material impact on our revenue, cash flow and operating results.
Our revenue, cash flow, operating results and other key operating and performance metrics may vary from quarter to quarter due to the seasonal nature of our customers' spending on advertising campaigns. For example, in prior years, customers tended to devote more of their advertising budgets to the fourth calendar quarter to coincide with consumer holiday spending. In contrast, the first quarter of the calendar year has typically been the slowest in terms of advertising spend. Political advertising could also cause our revenue to increase during election cycles and decrease during other periods, making it difficult to predict our revenue, cash flow and operating results, all of which could fall below our expectations. In addition, adverse economic conditions, inflation, changes in foreign exchange rates or interest rates, or general economic uncertainty may cause customers to decrease their advertising spend, adversely affecting our revenue, cash flow and operating results.

***If we do not effectively grow and train our sales and support teams, we may be unable to add new customers or increase usage of our platform by our existing customers and our business will be adversely affected.***

We are substantially dependent on our sales and support teams to obtain new customers and to increase usage of our platform by our existing customers. We believe that there is significant competition for sales personnel with the skills and technical knowledge that we require. Our ability to achieve revenue growth will depend, in large part, on our success in recruiting, training, integrating and retaining sufficient numbers of sales personnel to support our growth. Due to the complexity of our platform, a significant time lag exists between the hiring date of sales and support personnel and the time when they become fully productive. Our recent and planned hires may not become productive as quickly as we expect, and we may be unable to hire or retain sufficient numbers of qualified individuals in the markets where we do business or plan to do business. If we are unable to hire and train sufficient numbers of effective sales personnel, or the sales personnel are not successful in obtaining new customers or increasing our existing customers' spend with us, our business may be adversely affected.

#### The United Kingdom's withdrawal from the European Union may have a negative effect on global economic conditions, financial markets and our business.
Following a national referendum and enactment of legislation by the government of the United Kingdom, the United Kingdom formally withdrew from the European Union on January 31, 2020 and ratified a trade and cooperation agreement governing its future relationship with the European Union which was provisionally applied until ratified on January 1, 2021 by the European Parliament and the Council of the European Union, addresses trade, economic arrangements, law enforcement, judicial cooperation and a governance framework including procedures for dispute resolution, among other things. Because the agreement merely sets forth a framework in many respects and will require complex additional bilateral negotiations between the United Kingdom and the European Union as both parties continue to work on the rules for implementation, significant political and economic uncertainty remains about how the precise terms of the relationship between the parties will differ from the terms before withdrawal.

These developments, or the perception that any related developments could occur, have had and may continue to have a material adverse effect on global economic conditions and the stability of global financial markets, and may significantly reduce global market liquidity, restrict the ability of key market participants to operate in certain financial markets or restrict our access to capital. Any of these factors could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations and reduce the price of our ADSs.

#### Risks Relating to Global Operations Including Location in Israel and Our Employees

#### Our long-term success depends on our ability to operate internationally making us susceptible to risks associated with cross-border sales and operations.
We serve advertisements in more than 140 countries and maintain offices in North America, Europe, Asia and Australia. Our expansive global footprint subjects us to a variety of risks and burdens, including:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the need to localize our solutions, including product customizations and adaptation for local practices and regulatory requirements;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• lack of familiarity and burdens of ongoing compliance with local laws, legal standards, regulatory requirements, tariffs, customs
 formalities and other barriers, including restrictions on advertising practices, regulations governing online services, restrictions on
 importation or shipping of specified or proscribed items, importation quotas, shopper protection laws, enforcement of intellectual property
 rights, laws dealing with shopper and data protection, privacy, encryption, denied parties and sanctions, and restrictions on pricing
 or discounts;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• heightened exposure to fraud;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• legal uncertainty in foreign countries with less developed legal systems;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• unexpected changes in regulatory requirements, taxes, trade laws, tariffs, export quotas, custom duties or customs formalities, embargoes,
 exchange controls, government controls or other trade restrictions;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• differing technology standards;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• difficulties in managing and staffing international operations and differing employer/employee relationships;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• fluctuations in exchange rates that may increase our foreign exchange exposure;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• potentially adverse tax consequences, including the complexities of foreign tax laws (including with respect to value added taxes)
 and restrictions on the repatriation of earnings;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• increased likelihood of potential or actual violations of domestic and international anti-money laundering laws and anticorruption
 laws, such as the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended (the "FCPA") and the U.K. Bribery Act 2010 (the "U.K.
 Bribery Act"), which correlates with the scope of our sales and operations in foreign jurisdictions and operations in certain industries,
 such that an increase in such operations would increase risk of non-compliance with the aforementioned laws;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• uncertain political and economic climates in foreign markets;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• managing and staffing operations over a broader geographic area with varying cultural norms and customs;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• varying levels of Internet and mobile technology adoption and infrastructure;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• reduced or varied protection for intellectual property rights in some countries; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• new and different sources of competition.

These factors may require significant management attention and financial resources. Any negative impact from our international business efforts could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

#### We depend on our executive officers and other key employees, and the loss of one or more of these employees could harm our business.
Our success depends largely upon the continued services of our executive officers and other key employees. From time to time, there may be changes in our executive management team resulting from the hiring or departure of executives, which could disrupt our business. We do not have employment agreements with our executive officers or other key personnel that require them to continue to work for us for any specified period and, therefore, they could terminate their employment with us at any time subject only to the notice periods prescribed by their respective executive agreements. The loss of one or more of our executive officers or key employees could harm our business.

#### Inability to attract and retain other highly skilled employees could harm our business.
To execute our growth plan, we must attract and retain highly qualified personnel. Competition where we maintain offices is intense, especially for engineers experienced in designing and developing software and experienced sales professionals. We have from time to time experienced, and we expect to continue to experience, difficulty in hiring and retaining employees with appropriate qualifications. Many of the companies with which we compete for experienced personnel have greater resources than we have and may attempt to recruit our highly skilled employees. In addition, certain domestic immigration laws restrict or limit our ability to recruit internationally. Any changes to Israeli, United Kingdom, European or the U.S. immigration policies that restrain the flow of technical and professional talent may inhibit our ability to recruit and retain highly qualified employees. In addition, job candidates and existing employees often consider the value of the equity awards they receive in connection with their employment. If the perceived value of our equity awards declines, it may harm our ability to recruit and retain highly skilled employees.

Volatility or lack of appreciation in the price of our ADSs may also affect our ability to attract and retain our key employees. Many of our senior personnel and other key employees have become, or will soon become, vested in a substantial amount of options restricted share units ("RSUs") and performance share units ("PSUs"). Employees may be more likely to leave us if the shares they own or the shares underlying their vested options, RSUs or PSUs have significantly decreased in value relative to the original purchase price of the shares or the exercise price of the options.

#### Conditions in Israel could materially and adversely affect our business.
Many of our employees, including certain management members, operate from our offices that are located in Tel Aviv, Israel. In addition, a number of our officers and directors are residents of Israel. Accordingly, political, economic and military conditions in Israel and the surrounding region may directly affect our business and operations. In recent years, Israel has been engaged in sporadic armed conflicts with certain terrorist organizations and with Iranian-backed military forces in Syria. Some of these hostilities were accompanied by missiles being fired from the Gaza Strip against civilian targets in various parts of Israel, including areas in which our employees and some of our consultants are located, and negatively affected business conditions in Israel. In addition, Iran has threatened to attack Israel and may be developing nuclear weapons. Any hostilities involving Israel or the interruption or curtailment of trade between Israel and its trading partners could adversely affect our operations and results of operations.

------

Our commercial insurance does not cover losses that may occur as a result of events associated with war and terrorism. Although the Israeli government currently covers the reinstatement value of direct damages that are caused by terrorist attacks or acts of war, we cannot assure you that this government coverage will be maintained or that it will sufficiently cover our potential damages. Any losses or damages incurred by us could have a material adverse effect on our business. Any armed conflicts or political instability in the region could negatively affect our business conditions and harm our results of operations.

Further, in the past, the State of Israel and Israeli companies have been subjected to economic boycotts. Several countries still restrict business with the State of Israel and with Israeli companies. These restrictive laws and policies may have an adverse impact on our operating results, financial condition or the expansion of our business. A campaign of boycotts, divestment and sanctions has been undertaken against Israel, which could also adversely impact our business.

In addition, many Israeli citizens are obligated to perform several days, or in some cases extended periods of, annual military reserve duty each year until they reach the age of 40 (or older, for reservists who are military officers or who have certain occupations) and, in the event of a military conflict, may be called to active duty. In response to increases in terrorist activity, there have been periods of significant call-ups of military reservists. It is possible that there will be military reserve duty call-ups in the future. Our operations could be disrupted by such call-ups, which may include the call-up of members of our management. Such disruption could materially adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

Furthermore, the Israeli government is currently pursuing extensive changes to Israel's judicial system. In response to the foregoing developments, individuals, organizations and institutions, both within, and outside of Israel, have voiced concerns that the proposed changes may negatively impact the business environment in Israel including due to reluctance of foreign investors to invest, or conduct business, in Israel, as well as to increased currency fluctuations, downgrades in credit rating, increased interest rates, increased volatility in securities markets, and other changes in macroeconomic conditions. Such proposed changes may also adversely affect the labor market in Israel or lead to political instability or civil unrest. To the extent that any of these negative developments do occur, they may have an adverse effect on our business, our results of operations, and our ability to raise additional funds, if deemed necessary by our management and board of directors.

***Your rights and responsibilities as our shareholder will be governed by Israeli law, which may differ in some respects from the rights and responsibilities of shareholders of U.S. corporations.***

We are incorporated under Israeli law. The rights and responsibilities of holders of our ordinary shares are governed by our amended and restated articles of association and the Israeli Companies Law, 5759-1999 (the "Companies Law"). These rights and responsibilities differ in some respects from the rights and responsibilities of shareholders in typical U.S. corporations. In particular, pursuant to the Companies Law each shareholder of an Israeli company has to act in good faith and in a customary manner in exercising his, her or its rights and fulfilling his, her or its obligations toward the Company and other shareholders and to refrain from abusing his, her or its power in the Company, including, among other things, in voting at the general meeting of shareholders, on amendments to a company's articles of association, increases in a company's authorized share capital, mergers and certain transactions requiring shareholders' approval under the Companies Law. In addition, a controlling shareholder of an Israeli company or a shareholder who knows that it possesses the power to determine the outcome of a shareholder vote or who has the power to appoint or prevent the appointment of a director or officer in the Company, or has other powers toward the Company, has a duty of fairness toward the Company. However, Israeli law does not define the substance of this duty of fairness. There is little case law available to assist in understanding the implications of these provisions that govern shareholder behavior.

***Provisions of Israeli law and our amended and restated articles of association may delay, prevent or make undesirable an acquisition of all or a significant portion of our ADSs or assets.***

Provisions of Israeli law and our amended and restated articles of association could have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control and may make it more difficult for a third party to acquire us or our shareholders to elect different individuals to our board of directors, even if doing so would be considered to be beneficial by some of our shareholders, and may limit the price that investors may be willing to pay in the future for our ordinary shares. Among other things:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Israeli corporate law regulates mergers and requires that a tender offer be effected when more than a specified percentage of shares
 in a company are purchased;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Israeli corporate law requires special approvals for certain transactions involving directors, officers or significant shareholders
 and regulates other matters that may be relevant to these types of transactions;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Israeli corporate law does not provide for shareholder action by written consent for public companies, thereby requiring all shareholder
 actions to be taken at a general meeting of shareholders;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• our amended and restated articles of association do not permit a director to be removed except by a vote of the holders of at least
 65% of our outstanding shares entitled to vote at a general meeting of shareholders; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• our amended and restated articles of association provide that director vacancies may be filled by our board of directors.

Further, Israeli tax considerations may make potential transactions undesirable to us or to some of our shareholders whose country of residence does not have a tax treaty with Israel granting tax relief to such shareholders from Israeli tax. For example, Israeli tax law does not recognize tax-free share exchanges to the same extent as U.S. tax law. With respect to mergers, Israeli tax law allows for tax deferral in certain circumstances but makes the deferral contingent on the fulfillment of numerous conditions, including a holding period of two years from the date of the transaction during which certain sales and dispositions of shares of the participating companies are restricted. Moreover, with respect to certain share swap transactions, the tax deferral is limited in time, and when such time expires, the tax becomes payable even if no disposition of the shares has occurred.

------

***Our amended and restated articles of association provide that unless we consent to an alternate forum, the federal district courts of the United States shall be the exclusive forum for the resolution of any claims arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), which may limit the ability of our shareholders to initiate litigation against us or increase the cost thereof.***

Our amended and restated articles of association provide that unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the federal district courts of the United States shall be the exclusive forum for the resolution of any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act. Section 22 of the Securities Act creates concurrent jurisdiction for federal and state courts over all such Securities Act actions, and accordingly, both state and federal courts have jurisdiction to entertain such claims. While the federal forum provision in our amended and restated articles of association does not restrict the ability of our shareholders to bring claims under the Securities Act, we recognize that it may limit shareholders' ability to bring a claim in the judicial forum that they find favorable and may increase certain litigation costs, which may discourage the filing of claims under the Securities Act against the Company, its directors and officers. However, the enforceability of similar forum provisions (including exclusive federal forum provisions for actions, suits or proceedings asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act) in other companies' organizational documents has been challenged in legal proceedings, and there is uncertainty as to whether courts would enforce the exclusive forum provisions in our amended and restated articles of association. If a court were to find the choice of forum provision contained in our amended and restated articles of association to be inapplicable or unenforceable in an action, we may incur additional costs associated with resolving such action in other jurisdictions, which could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. We note that investors cannot waive compliance with the federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder may have the effect of discouraging lawsuits against our directors and officers.

***It may be difficult to enforce a U.S. judgment against us, our officers and directors in Israel or the United States, or to assert U.S. securities laws claims in Israel or serve process on our officers and directors.***

Not all of our directors or officers are residents of the United States and most of their and our assets are located outside the United States. Service of process upon us or our non-U.S. resident directors and officers and enforcement of judgments obtained in the United States against us or our non-U.S. our directors and executive officers may be difficult to obtain within the United States. We have been informed by our legal counsel in Israel that it may be difficult to assert claims under U.S. securities laws in original actions instituted in Israel or obtain a judgment based on the civil liability provisions of U.S. federal securities laws. Israeli courts may refuse to hear a claim based on a violation of U.S. securities laws against us or our non-U.S. officers and directors because Israel may not be the most appropriate forum to bring such a claim. In addition, even if an Israeli court agrees to hear a claim, it may determine that Israeli law and not U.S. law is applicable to the claim. If U.S. law is found to be applicable, the content of applicable U.S. law must be proved as a fact, which can be a time-consuming and costly process. Certain matters of procedure will also be governed by Israeli law. There is little binding case law in Israel addressing the matters described above. Israeli courts might not enforce judgments rendered outside Israel, which may make it difficult to collect on judgments rendered against us or our non-U.S. officers and directors.

Moreover, an Israeli court will not enforce a non-Israeli judgment if it was given in a state whose laws do not provide for the enforcement of judgments of Israeli courts (subject to exceptional cases), if its enforcement is likely to prejudice the sovereignty or security of the State of Israel, if it was obtained by fraud or in the absence of due process, if it is at variance with another valid judgment that was given in the same matter between the same parties, or if a suit in the same matter between the same parties was pending before a court or tribunal in Israel at the time the foreign action was brought.

#### Risks Relating to Our Financial Position

#### Our operating history makes it difficult to evaluate our business and prospects and may increase the risk associated with your investment.
Our business has evolved over time, including through several successful acquisitions such as our acquisitions of RhythmOne plc ("RhythmOne") in 2019, Unruly Holdings Limited and Unruly Media, Inc. (collectively, "Unruly") in 2020, SpearAd GmbH ("SpearAd") in 2021 and Amobee in 2022, such that our operating history makes it difficult to evaluate our current business and future prospects. As a result of such acquisitions, our financial results across different periods may not be directly comparable. We expect to face challenges, risks and difficulties frequently experienced by growing companies in rapidly developing industries, including those relating to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• recruiting, integrating and retaining qualified and motivated employees, particularly engineers

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• developing, maintaining and expanding relationships with publishers, agencies and advertisers;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• innovating and developing new solutions that are adopted by and meet the needs of publishers, agencies and advertisers;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• competing against companies with a larger customer base or greater financial or technical resources;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• global economic disruption and technological changes driven by the COVID-19 pandemic;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• further expanding our global footprint;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• managing expenses as we invest in our infrastructure and platform technology to scale our business and operate as a U.S. listed public
 company; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• responding to evolving industry standards and government regulations that impact our business, particularly in the areas of data
 protection and consumer privacy.

If we are not successful in addressing these and other issues, our business may suffer, our revenue may decline and we may not be able to achieve further growth or sustain profitability.

 ****We often have long sales cycles, which can result in significant time and investment between initial contact with a prospect and execution of an agreement with an advertiser or publisher, making it difficult to project when, if at all, we will obtain new advertisers or publishers, and when we will generate revenue from them.****

Our sales cycle, from initial contact to contract execution and implementation, can take significant time. As part of our sales cycle, we may incur significant expenses before we generate any revenue from a prospective advertiser or publisher, if at all. We have no assurance that the substantial time and money spent on our sales efforts will generate significant revenue. If conditions in the marketplace, generally or with a specific prospective advertiser or publisher, change negatively, it is possible that we will be unable to recover any of these expenses. Our sales efforts involve educating advertisers and publishers about the use, technical capabilities and benefits of our platform. Some advertisers and publishers undertake an evaluation process that frequently involves not only our platform but also the offerings of our competitors. As a result, it is difficult to predict when we will obtain new advertisers or publishers and begin generating revenue from them. Even if our sales efforts result in obtaining a new advertiser or publisher, the advertiser or publisher controls when and to what extent it uses our platform and therefore the amount of revenue we generate, and it may not sufficiently justify the expenses incurred to acquire the advertiser or publisher and the related training support. As a result, we may not be able to add advertisers or publishers to our customer base, or generate revenue, as quickly as we may expect, which could harm our growth prospects.

***We are subject to payment-related risks and, if our advertisers do not pay or dispute their invoices, our business, financial condition and operating results may be adversely affected.***

Many of our contracts with advertising agencies provide that if the advertiser does not pay the agency, the agency is not liable to us, and we must seek payment solely from the advertiser, a type of arrangement called sequential liability. Contracting with these agencies, which in some cases have or may develop higher-risk credit profiles, may subject us to greater credit risk than if we were to contract directly with advertisers. This credit risk may vary depending on the nature of an advertising agency's aggregated advertiser base. We may also be involved in disputes with agencies and their marketers over the operation of our platform, the terms of our agreements or our billings for purchases made by them through our platform. When we are unable to collect or make adjustments to our bills to advertisers, we incur write-offs for bad debt, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations for the periods in which the write-offs occur. In the future, bad debt may exceed reserves for such contingencies and our bad debt exposure may increase over time. Any increase in write-offs for bad debt could have a materially negative effect on our business, operating results and financial condition.

Furthermore, we are generally contractually required to pay suppliers of advertising inventory and data within a negotiated period of time, regardless of whether our advertisers or publishers pay us on time, or at all. While we attempt to negotiate long payment periods with our suppliers and shorter periods with our advertisers and publishers, we are not always successful. As a result, our accounts payable are often due on shorter cycles than our accounts receivables, requiring us to remit payments from our own funds, and accept the risk of bad debt.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; This payment process will increasingly consume working capital if we continue to be successful in growing our business. In addition, like many companies in our industry, we often experience slow payment by advertising agencies. In this regard, we had average days sales outstanding ("DSO") of 90 days and average days payable outstanding ("DPO") of 92 days for the year ended December 31, 2022. We compute our average DSO as of a given month end based on a weighted average of outstanding accounts receivable. Specifically, the DSO is calculated by multiplying the percentage of accounts receivable outstanding for each monthly billing period by the number of days outstanding related to each billing period and then summing the weighted days outstanding. We compute our DPO as of a given month end by dividing our trade payables (including accrued liabilities) by the average daily cost of media, data, other direct costs and certain operating expenses over the prior four months. Historically, our DSOs have fluctuated. If our DSOs increase significantly, and we are unable to borrow against these receivables on commercially acceptable terms, our working capital availability could be reduced, and as a consequence our results of operations and financial condition would be adversely impacted. We cannot assure you that as we continue to grow, our business will generate sufficient cash flow from operations to fund our working capital needs. If our cash flows are insufficient to fund our working capital requirements, we may not be able to grow at the rate we currently expect or at all.

***The Amobee acquisition and any future acquisitions or strategic investments could be difficult to integrate, divert the attention of management, and could disrupt our business, dilute shareholder value and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.***

As part of our growth strategy, we have pursued strategic acquisitions, such as our acquisitions of RhythmOne in 2019, Unruly in 2020, SpearAd in 2021 and Amobee in 2022, and our investment in Hisense's VIDAA platform in 2022 and we may acquire or invest in other businesses, assets or technologies that are complementary to our business and align with our strategic goals. Any acquisition or investment may divert the attention of management and require us to use significant amounts of cash, issue dilutive equity securities or incur debt. In addition, the anticipated benefits of any acquisition or investment may not be realized, and we may be exposed to unknown risks, any of which could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition, including risks arising from:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• difficulties in integrating the operations, technologies, product or service offerings, administrative systems and personnel of acquired
 businesses, especially if those businesses operate outside of our core competency or geographies in which we currently operate;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• ineffectiveness or incompatibility of acquired technologies or solutions;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• potential loss of key employees of the acquired business;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• inability to maintain key business relationships and reputation of the acquired business;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• diversion of management attention from other business concerns;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• litigation arising from the acquisition or the activities of the acquired business, including claims from excluded assets, terminated
 employees, customers, former shareholders or other third parties;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• assumption of contractual obligations that contain terms that are not beneficial to us, require us to license or waive intellectual
 property rights, or increase our risk of liability;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• complications in the integration of acquired businesses or diminished prospects, including as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and
 its global economic effects;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• failure to generate the expected financial results and synergies related to an acquisition on a timely manner or at all;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• failure to accurately forecast the impact of an acquisition transaction; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• implementation or remediation of effective controls, procedures and policies for acquired businesses.

To fund part of the acquisition of Amobee, we entered into a new debt facility (See Note 11 to our audited consolidated financial statements). To fund future acquisitions, we may obtain additional debt financing, pay cash or issue additional ADSs, which could dilute our shareholders' value or diminish our cash reserves. Borrowing to fund the Amobee acquisition resulted in increased fixed obligations and subjected us to covenants or other restrictions that can potentially limit the ability to run our business.

***We are a party to a credit agreement which contains a number of covenants that may restrict our current and future operations and could adversely affect our ability to execute business needs.***

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; In September 2022, in connection with the consummation of the Amobee acquisition, Unruly Group US Holding entered into a senior secured term loan and a senior secured revolving credit facility with letter of credit sub-facility (collectively, the "Loan"), which contains a number of covenants that limit our ability and our subsidiaries' ability to, among other things, incur indebtedness, create liens, make investments, merge with other companies, dispose of our assets, prepay other indebtedness and make dividends and other distributions. The terms of our Loan may restrict our current and future operations and could adversely affect our ability to finance our future operations or capital needs or to execute business strategies in the means or manner desired. In addition, complying with these covenants may make it more difficult for us to successfully execute our business strategy, invest in our growth strategy and compete against companies who are not subject to such restrictions. The Loans require compliance with various financial and non-financial covenants, including affirmative and negative covenants. The financial covenants require that the total net leverage ratio not exceed 3x and the interest coverage ratio not be less than 4x, in each case measured as of the end of each fiscal quarter. We may not be able to generate sufficient cash flow or sales to meet the financial covenant or pay the principal or interest under the Loan. See Note 11 of our audited consolidated financial statements for additional information.

------

If we are unable to comply with our payment requirements, our lender may accelerate our obligations under our Loan and foreclose upon the collateral, or we may be forced to sell assets, restructure our indebtedness or seek additional equity capital, which would dilute our shareholders' interests. If we fail to comply with our covenants under the Loan, it could result in an event of default under the agreement and our lender could make the entire debt immediately due and payable. If this occurs, we might not be able to repay our debt or borrow sufficient funds to refinance it. Even if new financing is available, it may not be on terms that are acceptable to us.

#### Risks Relating to Legal or Regulatory Constraints

#### We are subject to regulation with respect to political advertising, which lacks clarity and uniformity.
We are subject to regulation with respect to political advertising activities, which are governed by various federal and state laws in the United States and national and provincial laws worldwide. Online political advertising laws are rapidly evolving and our publishers may impose restrictions on receiving political advertising. The lack of uniformity and increasing compliance requirements around political advertising may adversely impact the amount of political advertising spent through our platform, increase our operating and compliance costs and subject us to potential liability from regulatory agencies.

***We are subject to laws and regulations related to data privacy, data protection and information security and consumer protection across different markets where we conduct our business, including in the United States, the European Economic Area ("EEA") and the United Kingdom and industry requirements and such laws, regulations and industry requirements are constantly evolving and changing.***

We receive, store and process data about or related to consumers in addition to advertisers, publishers, employees and services providers. Our handling of this data is subject to a variety of federal, state and foreign laws and regulations and is subject to regulation by various government authorities and other regulatory bodies. Our data handling is also subject to contractual obligations (some of which are statutorily required) and may be deemed to be subject to industry standards.

The U.S. federal and various state and foreign governments have adopted or proposed limitations on the collection, distribution, use, transfer and storage of data relating to individuals, including the use of contact information, web and device-based identifiers, and other data for marketing, advertising and other communications with individuals and businesses. In the United States, various laws and regulations apply to the collection, processing, disclosure and security of certain types of data. these and other types of data. Many aspects of these laws, and regulations underlying them, have not been interpreted by the applicable courts, and the full nature and scope of their application is therefore uncertain. Likewise, these laws impose particular obligations regarding the collection, use and transfer of certain categories of "sensitive" information, but the precise application of these laws to inferenced audience segments often used by advertising platforms remains unclear. Therefore, it is possible that standards of data usage, disclosure, collection or transfer may be interpreted or redefined in a manner that restricts us from how we collect or use information that is important to our platforms and services.

Additionally, the U.S. Federal Trade Commission ("FTC") and many state attorneys general are interpreting federal and state consumer protection laws as imposing certain "fairness" standards for the online collection, use, dissemination and security of data, but the precise scope and impact of these standards are presently unclear. If we fail to comply with any such laws or regulations, or if they are defined in a manner that imposes onerous restrictions on targeted advertising, we may be subject to enforcement actions that may not only expose us to litigation, fines and civil and/or criminal penalties but may also require us to change our business practices as well as have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

More generally, the regulatory framework for and enforcement of data privacy issues worldwide is currently evolving and is likely to remain uncertain for the foreseeable future. The occurrence of unanticipated events often rapidly drives the adoption of legislation or regulation affecting the use, collection or other processing of data and manners in which we conduct our business. Restrictions could be placed upon the collection, management, aggregation and use of information, which could result in a material increase in the cost of collecting or otherwise obtaining certain kinds of data and could limit the ways in which we may use or disclose information. In particular, interest-based advertising, or the use of data to draw inferences about a user's interests and deliver relevant advertising to that user, and similar or related practices (sometimes referred to as behavioral advertising or personalized advertising), such as cross-device data collection and aggregation, steps taken to de-identify personal data, and to use and distribute the resulting data, including for purposes of personalization and the targeting of advertisements, have come under increasing scrutiny by legislative, regulatory and self-regulatory bodies in the United States, the European Union and in other jurisdictions that focus on consumer protection or data privacy. Much of this scrutiny has focused on the use of cookies and other technology to collect information about consumers' online browsing activity on web browsers, mobile devices and other devices, to associate such data with user or device identifiers or de-identified identities across devices and channels.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; In addition, providers of Internet browsers, app stores or platforms such as Apple or Google have engaged in, or announced plans to continue or expand, efforts to provide increased visibility into, and certain controls over, cookies and similar technologies and the data collected using such technologies, as further described above in the section "—*Risks Relating to our Business—If the use of digital advertising is rejected by consumers, through opt-in, opt-out or ad-blocking technologies or other means, it could have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition*." For example, in January 2020, Google announced that the Chrome browser will block third-party cookies at some point during the subsequent 24 months. Such providers could also change their technical requirements, guidelines or policies, including through their default settings, in other ways that adversely impact the way in which we or our customers collect, use and share data from user devices, including restricting our ability to use or read device identifiers, other tracking features or other device data. Because we, our advertisers and our publishers, rely upon large volumes of such data collected primarily through cookies and similar technologies, it is possible that these efforts may have a substantial impact on our ability to collect and use data from consumers, and it is essential that we monitor developments in this area domestically and globally, and engage in responsible privacy practices, including providing consumers with notice of the types of data we collect, how we use that data to provide our services and the ability to opt out of such use. There also is the risk that a provider could limit or discontinue our access to its platform or app store if it establishes more favorable relationships with one or more of our competitors or it determines that it is in their business interests to do so, and we would have no recourse against any such provider, which could have a material adverse effect on our business.

------

In the United States, the U.S. Congress and state legislatures, along with federal regulatory authorities have recently increased their attention on matters concerning the collection and use of consumer data, including by digital advertisers. For example, the FTC regulates digital advertising through the Federal Trade Commission Act, which prohibits "unfair" or "deceptive" trade practices, including misrepresentations regarding the collection and use of consumer data. States have also begun to introduce more comprehensive privacy legislation. California enacted the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (the "CCPA") that took effect on January 1, 2020. The CCPA gives California residents expanded rights to access and delete their personal information, opt out of sale of their personal information, and receive detailed information about how their personal information is used. The CCPA provides for civil penalties for violations, as well as a private right of action for certain data breaches, which is expected to increase the volume and success of class action data breach litigation. In addition to increasing our compliance costs and potential liability, the CCPA created restrictions on "sales" of personal information that may restrict the disclosure of personal information for advertising purposes. Our advertising business relies, in part, on such disclosure, and decreased availability and increased costs of information could adversely affect our ability to meet advertisers' and publishers' requirements and could have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We are also subject to the California Privacy Rights Act ("CPRA"), which was passed into law on November 3, 2020, and took substantial effect on January 1, 2023. The CPRA modifies and supplements the CCPA, including by imposing additional regulation on online advertising and particularly cross-context behavioral advertising, potentially resulting in further uncertainty and requiring us to incur additional costs and expenses in an effort to comply. The effects of the CCPA and CPRA are potentially significant and may require us to modify our data collection or processing practices and policies and to incur substantial costs and expenses in an effort to comply and increase our potential exposure to regulatory enforcement and/or litigation.

The CCPA and CPRA has encouraged "copycat" laws and in other states across the country, such as in Virginia and Washington. This legislation may add additional complexity, variation in requirements, restrictions and potential legal risk, require additional investment in resources to compliance programs and could impact strategies and availability of previously useful data and could result in increased compliance costs and/or changes in business practices and policies.

In the EEA, we are subject to the General Data Protection Regulation 2016/679 ("GDPR") and in the United Kingdom, we are subject to the United Kingdom data protection regime consisting primarily of the UK General Data Protection Regulation and the UK Data Protection Act 2018, in each case in relation to our collection, control, processing, sharing, disclosure and other use of data relating to an identifiable living individual (personal data). The GDPR, and national implementing legislation in EEA member states and the United Kingdom, impose a strict data protection compliance regime including: providing detailed disclosures about how personal data is collected and processed (in a concise, intelligible and easily accessible form); demonstrating that an appropriate legal basis is in place or otherwise exists to justify data processing activities; granting new rights for data subjects in regard to their personal data (including the right to be "forgotten" and the right to data portability), as well as enhancing current rights (e.g., data subject access requests); introducing the obligation to notify data protection regulators or supervisory authorities (and in certain cases, affected individuals) of significant data breaches; defining for the first time pseudonymized (i.e., key-coded) data; imposing limitations on retention of personal data; maintaining a record of data processing; and complying with the principal of accountability and the obligation to demonstrate compliance through policies, procedures, training and audit. Fines for certain breaches of the GDPR and the UK data protection regime are significant (e.g., fines for certain breaches of the GDPR are up to the greater of 20 million Euros or 4% of total global annual turnover). In addition to the foregoing, a breach of the GDPR or UK GDPR could result in regulatory investigations, reputational damage, orders to cease/change our processing of our data, enforcement notices and/ or assessment notices (for a compulsory audit). We may also face civil claims including representative actions and other class action type litigation (where individuals have suffered harm), potentially amounting to significant compensation or damages liabilities, as well as associated costs, diversion of internal resources and reputational harm.

Further, in the European Union and the United Kingdom, we are subject to evolving EU and UK privacy laws on cookies and e-marketing. Regulators in these countries are increasingly focusing on compliance with requirements in the online behavioral advertising ecosystem, and current national laws that implement the ePrivacy Directive are highly likely to be replaced by an EU regulation known as the ePrivacy Regulation which will significantly increase fines for non-compliance. While the text of the ePrivacy Regulation is still under development, a recent European court decision and regulators' recent guidance are driving increased attention to cookies and tracking technologies. As regulators start to enforce the strict approach, this could lead to substantial costs, require significant systems changes, limit the effectiveness of our marketing activities, divert the attention of our technology personnel and subject us to additional liabilities. This strict approach to enforcement has already begun in a number of European jurisdictions. For instance, high profile investigations into the AdTech industry are underway in Germany and the United Kingdom. In a recent decision, the Belgium DPA found that a widely used mechanism to manage user preferences relating to targeted online advertising, the TCF, violated the GDPR and fined the industry body that developed it EUR 250,000.

------

We are also subject to laws and regulations that dictate whether, how and under what circumstances we can transfer, process and/or receive certain data that is critical to our operations, including data shared between countries or regions in which we operate and data shared among our products and services. Specifically, the GDPR, UK GDPR and other European and UK data protection laws generally prohibit the transfer of personal data from the EEA, UK and Switzerland to the United States and most other countries unless the transfer is to an entity established in a country deemed to be provide adequate protection (such as Israel) or the parties to the transfer have implemented certain safeguards to protect the transferred personal data. Where we transfer personal data outside the EEA to a country that is not deemed to be "adequate," we strive to comply with applicable laws including where we can rely on derogations (e.g., where the transfer is necessary for the performance of a contract) or we may put in place standard contractual clauses.

In addition, some jurisdictions may impose data localization laws, which require personal information, or certain subcategories of personal information to be stored in the jurisdiction of origin. These regulations may inhibit our ability to expand into those markets or prohibit us from continuing to offer our products in those markets without significant additional costs.

We also depend on a number of third parties in relation to the operation of our business, a number of which process personal data on our behalf. With each such provider we attempt to mitigate the associated risks of using third parties by conducting due diligence, entering into contractual arrangements to require that providers only process personal data in accordance with the applicable laws, and that they have appropriate technical and organizational security measures in place. Where we transfer personal data outside the EEA or the United Kingdom to such third parties, we do so in compliance with the relevant data export requirements, as described above. There is no assurance that these contractual measures and our own privacy and security-related safeguards will protect us from the risks associated with the third-party processing, storage and transmission of such information. Any violation of data or security laws by our third-party processors could have a material adverse effect on our business and result in the fines and penalties outlined above. In addition to government regulation, privacy advocacy and industry groups may propose new and different self-regulatory standards that either legally or contractually apply to us, our advertisers or our publishers. We are members of self-regulatory bodies such as Data Advertising Alliance, European Digital Advertising Alliance, Digital Advertising Alliance of Canada, National Advertising Initiative and Interactive Advertising Bureau ("IAB"), among others, that impose additional requirements related to the collection, use and disclosure of consumer data. Under the requirements of these self- regulatory bodies, in addition to other compliance obligations, we are obligated to provide consumers with notice about our use of cookies and other technologies to collect consumer data and of our collection and use of consumer data for certain purposes, and to provide consumers with certain choices relating to the use of consumer data. Some of these self-regulatory bodies have the ability to discipline members or participants, which could result in fines, penalties and/or public censure (which could in turn cause reputational harm). Additionally, some of these self-regulatory bodies might refer violations of their requirements to the FTC or other regulatory bodies. If we were to be found responsible for such a violation, it could adversely affect our reputation, as well as our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Any failure to achieve the required data protection standards (which are sometimes unclear when applied to the online advertising ecosystem) may result in lawsuits, regulatory fines or other actions or liability, all of which may harm our results of operations. Because the interpretation and application of privacy and data protection laws such as the CCPA and GDPR, and the related regulations and standards, are uncertain, it is possible that these laws, regulations and standards may be interpreted and applied in manners that are, or are asserted to be, inconsistent with our data management practices or the technological features of our solutions.

***If publishers, buyers, and data providers do not obtain necessary and requisite consents from consumers for us to process their personal data, we could be subject to fines and liability.***

Because we do not have direct relationships with consumers, we rely on publishers, buyers, and data providers, as applicable, to obtain the consent of the consumer on our behalf to process their data and deliver interest-based advertisements, and to implement any notice or choice mechanisms required under applicable laws, but if publishers, buyers, or data providers do not follow this process (and in any event as the legal requirements in this area continue to evolve and develop), we could be subject to fines and liability. We may not have adequate insurance or contractual indemnity arrangements to protect us against any such claims and losses.

***We generally do not have a direct relationship with consumers who view advertisements placed through our platform, so we may not be able to disclaim liabilities from such consumers through terms of use on our platform.***

Advertisements on websites, applications and other digital media properties of publishers purchased through our platform are viewed by consumers visiting the publishers' digital media properties. Those publishers often have terms of use in place with their consumers that disclaim or limit their potential liabilities to consumers, or pursuant to which consumers waive rights to bring class actions against the publishers. We generally do not have terms of use in place with such consumers, so we cannot disclaim or limit potential liabilities to them through terms of use, which may expose us to greater liabilities than certain of our competitors.

------

***We face potential liability and harm to our business based on the nature of our business and the content on our platform and we are, and may be in the future, involved in commercial disputes with counterparties with whom we do business.***

Advertising often results in litigation relating to misleading or deceptive claims, copyright or trademark infringement, public performance royalties or other claims based on the nature and content of advertising that is distributed through our platform. Though we aim to contractually require advertisers to represent to us that their advertisements comply with our ad standards and our publishers' ad standards and that they have the rights necessary to serve advertisements through our platform, we do not independently verify whether we are permitted to deliver, or review the content of, such advertisements. Likewise, while we aim to contractually require publishers to represent to us that their content comply with our publisher standards and does not infringe on any third-party rights, we do not independently verify whether we are permitted to deliver, or review the content of such inventory. If any of these representations are untrue, we may be exposed to potential liability and our reputation may be damaged. While our advertisers and publishers are typically obligated to indemnify us, such indemnification may not fully cover us, or we may not be able to collect. In addition to settlement costs, we may be responsible for our own litigation costs, which can be expensive.

Further, operating in the advertising industry involves numerous commercial relationships, uncertain intellectual property rights and other aspects that create heightened risks of disputes, claims, lawsuits and investigations. In particular, we may face claims related to intellectual property matters, commercial disputes and sales and marketing practices. For example, on May 18, 2021, we filed a complaint against Alphonso, Inc. ("Alphonso") asserting claims for breach of contract, tortious interference with business relations, intentional interference with contractual relations, unjust enrichment, and conversion in connection with Alphonso's breach of certain contracts with us and related misconduct. The Court enjoined Alphonso from using Tremor's confidential information but did not grant relief on our other claims. On June 21, 2022, Alphonso, Inc. ("Alphonso") filed a complaint against the Company in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, asserting claims for misappropriation of trade secrets under federal and state law. On July 19, 2022, Alphonso also filed a motion for a preliminary injunction. On October 31, 2022, the Court denied Alphonso's motion for a preliminary injunction. Alphonso and the Company are currently engaged in fact discovery. See Item 8.A. "*Combined Statements and Other Financial Information⸺Legal Proceedings*" for further information. Any commercial dispute, claim, counterclaim, lawsuit or investigation, including our commercial dispute with Alphonso, has and may divert our management's attention away from our business, we have and may continue to incur significant expenses in addressing or defending any commercial dispute, claim, counterclaim or lawsuit or responding to any investigation, and we may be required to pay damage awards or settlements.

***We are subject to anti-bribery, anti-corruption and similar laws and non-compliance with such laws can subject us to criminal penalties or significant fines and harm our business and reputation.***

We may be subject to certain economic and trade sanctions laws and regulations, export control and import laws and regulations, including those that are administered by the U.S. Department of Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control, the U.S. Department of State, the U.S. Department of Commerce, the United Nations Security Council and other relevant governmental authorities.

We are also subject to the FCPA, the U.K. Bribery Act, Chapter 9 (sub-chapter 5) of the Israeli Penal Law, 5737-1977, the Israeli Prohibition on Money Laundering Law, 5760-2000 and other anti-bribery laws in countries in which we conduct our activities. These laws generally prohibit companies, their employees and third-party intermediaries from authorizing, promising, offering, providing, soliciting or accepting, directly or indirectly, improper payments or benefits to or from any person whether in the public or private sector. In addition, the FCPA's accounting provisions require us to maintain accurate books and records and a system of internal accounting controls. We have policies, procedures, systems and controls designed to promote compliance with applicable anti-corruption laws.

As we increase our global sales and business, we may engage with business partners and third-party intermediaries to market our solutions and obtain necessary permits, licenses and other regulatory approvals. In addition, we or our third-party intermediaries may have direct or indirect interactions with officials and employees of government agencies or state-owned or affiliated entities. We can be held liable for the corrupt or other illegal activities of these third-party intermediaries, our employees, representatives, contractors, partners and agents, even if we do not authorize such activities.

Our advertisers or publishers may have consumers in countries that are subject to U.S. economic sanctions laws and regulations administered by the Office of Foreign Assets Control ("OFAC"), the Israeli Trade with the Enemy Ordinance, 1939 and sanction laws of the EU and other applicable jurisdictions, which prohibit the sale of products to embargoed jurisdictions or sanctioned parties ("Sanctioned Countries"). We have taken steps to avoid serving advertisements to consumers located in Sanctioned Countries and are implementing various control mechanisms designed to prevent unauthorized dealings with Sanctioned Countries going forward. Although we have taken precautions to prevent our solutions from being provided, deployed or used in violation of sanctions laws, due to the remote nature of our solutions and the potential for manipulation using VPNs, we cannot assure you that our policies and procedures relating to sanctions compliance will prevent any violations in the future. If we are found to be in violation of any applicable sanctions regulations, it can result in significant fines or penalties and possible incarceration for responsible employees and managers, as well as reputational harm and loss of business.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Despite our compliance efforts and activities, there can be no assurance that our employees or representatives will comply with the relevant laws and we may be held responsible. Noncompliance with anti-corruption, anti-money laundering, export control, economic and trade sanctions and other trade laws could subject us to whistleblower complaints, investigations, sanctions, settlements, prosecution, other enforcement actions, disgorgement of profits, significant fines, damages, other civil and criminal penalties or injunctions, suspension and/or debarment from contracting with certain persons, the loss of export privileges, reputational harm, adverse media coverage and other collateral consequences. If any subpoenas or investigations are initiated, or governmental or other sanctions are imposed, or if we do not prevail in any possible civil or criminal litigation, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially harmed. Responding to any action could result in a materially significant diversion of management's attention and resources and significant defense and compliance costs and other professional fees. In addition, regulatory authorities may seek to hold us liable for successor liability for violations committed by companies in which we invest or that we acquire. As a general matter, enforcement actions and sanctions could harm our business, financial condition and results of operations.

------

#### Risks Relating to Our ADSs
***The price of our ADSs and the trading volume of our ADSs may be volatile, and you may lose all or part of your investment.***

Technology stocks have historically experienced high level of price and volume fluctuation. The market prices of our ADSs and ordinary shares and volume trading have fluctuated substantially and may continue to do so as a result of many factors, including:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• actual or anticipated fluctuations in our results of operations;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• variance in our financial performance from the expectations of market analysts;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• announcements by us or our direct or indirect competition of significant business developments, changes in service provider relationships,
 acquisitions or expansion plans;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our management, employees, partners, merchants and operating results;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• changes or proposed changes in laws or regulations or differing interpretations or enforcement of laws or regulations affecting our
 business;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• changes in our pricing model;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• our involvement in litigation or regulatory actions;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• our sale of ADSs or other securities in the future;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• our buyback program for our ordinary shares or the implementation of a buyback program for our ADSs;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• market conditions in our industry;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• changes in key personnel;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the dual listing and the trading of our ordinary shares on AIM (as defined herein);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the trading volume of our ADSs;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• publication of research reports or news stories about us, our competition or our industry, or positive or negative recommendations
 or withdrawal of research coverage by securities analysts;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• changes in the estimation of the future size and growth rate of our markets; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• general economic, geopolitical and market conditions.

Although our ADSs are traded on Nasdaq, the trading volume is low. Given the lower trading volume of our ADSs, any sale of our ADSs could cause our market price to fall. Due to the nature of our compensation program, our executive officers can sell our ADSs, often pursuant to trading plans established under Rule 10b5-1 of the Exchange Act, and certain of our executive officers currently have 10b5-1 trading plans in place. As a result, sales of ADSs and ordinary shares by our executive officers may not be indicative of their respective opinions of our performance at the time of sale or of our potential future performance. Nonetheless, the market price of our ADSs and ordinary shares may be affected by sales of shares by our executive officers. In addition, the stock markets have experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations. Broad market and industry factors may materially harm the market price of our ADSs and ordinary shares, regardless of our operating performance. In the past, following periods of volatility in the market price of a company's securities, securities class action litigation has often been instituted against that company. If we were involved in any similar litigation, we could incur substantial costs and our management's attention and resources could be diverted.

 ****There was no public market for our ADSs prior to the listing of our ADSs on the Nasdaq Global Market effective in June 2021 (the "IPO"), and an active trading market may not develop at the rate and volume expected which may impact investors' ability to sell our ADSs.****

Prior to our IPO, there was no public market for our ADSs, although our ordinary shares have traded on the Alternate Investment Market of the London Stock Exchange ("AIM"). An active trading market for our ADSs may not develop at the rate or volume expected or such market may not be sustained. The lack of an active market may impair your ability to sell your ADSs at the time you wish to sell them or at a price that you consider reasonable. An inactive market may also impair our ability to raise capital by selling ADSs and may impair our ability to acquire other companies by using our ADSs as consideration.

------

***If we do not meet the expectations of equity research analysts, if they do not publish research or reports about our business or if they issue unfavorable commentary or downgrade our ADSs, the price of our ADSs and trading volume could decline.***

The trading market for our ADSs rely in part on the research and reports that equity research analysts publish about us and our business. The analysts' estimates are based upon their own opinions and are often different from our estimates or expectations. If our results of operations are below the estimates or expectations of public market analysts and investors, the price of our ADSs could decline. Moreover, the price and trading volume of our ADSs could decline if one or more securities analysts downgrade our ADSs or if those analysts issue other unfavorable commentary or cease publishing reports about us or our business.

#### The dual listing of our ordinary shares and our ADSs may adversely affect the liquidity and value of our ordinary shares and ADSs.
Our ordinary shares are also admitted to trading on AIM in a different currency (U.S. dollars on Nasdaq, and £ on AIM), and at different times (resulting from different time zones and different public holidays in the United States and the U.K.). We cannot predict the effect of this dual listing on the value of our ADSs and ordinary shares. However, the dual listing of our ADSs and ordinary shares may dilute the liquidity of these securities in one or both markets and may adversely affect the development of an active trading market for our ADSs in the United States. The price of our ADSs could also be adversely affected by trading in our ordinary shares on AIM or by our repurchase program.

Although our ordinary shares are currently admitted to trading on AIM, we may decide to cancel the admission of our ordinary shares to trading on AIM. Cancellation of the admission of our ordinary shares to trading on AIM would require the requisite consent of shareholders in a general meeting prescribed by AIM Rules for Companies unless the London Stock Exchange agrees otherwise. We cannot predict the effect such cancellation would have on the market price of our ADSs or ordinary shares.

***We qualify as an emerging growth company, as defined in the Securities Act, and we cannot be certain if the reduced disclosure requirements applicable to emerging growth companies will make our ADSs less attractive to investors because we may rely on these reduced disclosure requirements.***

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; We qualify as an emerging growth company, as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act ("JOBS Act"). For as long as we continue to be an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies, including presenting only limited selected financial data and not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. As a result, our shareholders may not have access to certain information that they may deem important. We could be an emerging growth company for up to five years, although circumstances could cause us to lose that status earlier, including if our total annual revenue equals or exceeds $1.235 billion, if we issue more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt securities during any three-year period, or if before that time we are a "large accelerated filer" under U.S. securities laws. We cannot predict if investors will find our ADSs less attractive because we may rely on these exemptions. If some investors find our ordinary shares less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our ordinary shares and our share price may be more volatile.

***We are foreign private issuer and, as a result, we will not be subject to U.S. proxy rules and will be subject to Exchange Act reporting obligations that, to some extent, are more lenient and less frequent than those of a U.S. domestic public company.***

We report under the Exchange Act as a non-U.S. company with foreign private issuer status. Because we qualify as a foreign private issuer under the Exchange Act, we are exempt from certain provisions of the Exchange Act that are applicable to U.S. domestic public companies, including (1) the sections of the Exchange Act regulating the solicitation of proxies, consents or authorizations in respect of a security registered under the Exchange Act, (2) the sections of the Exchange Act requiring insiders to file public reports of their share ownership and trading activities and liability for insiders who profit from trades made in a short period of time and (3) the rules under the Exchange Act requiring the filing with the SEC of quarterly reports on Form 10-Q containing unaudited financial and other specified information, although we are subject to Israeli laws and regulations with regard to certain of these matters and intend to furnish comparable quarterly information on Form 6-K. In addition, foreign private issuers are not required to file their annual report on Form 20-F until four months after the end of each fiscal year, while U.S. domestic issuers that are accelerated filers are required to file their annual report on Form 10-K within 75 days after the end of each fiscal year and U.S. domestic issuers that are large accelerated filers are required to file their annual report on Form 10-K within 60 days after the end of each fiscal year. Foreign private issuers are also exempt from Regulation FD, which is intended to prevent issuers from making selective disclosures of material information. As a result of all of the above, you may not have the same protections afforded to shareholders of a company that is not a foreign private issuer.

#### We may lose our "foreign private issuer" status in the future, which could result in significant additional costs and expenses.
As discussed above, we are a foreign private issuer, and therefore, we are not required to comply with all of the periodic disclosure and current reporting requirements of the Exchange Act. The determination of foreign private issuer status is made annually on the last business day of an issuer's most recently completed second fiscal quarter, and, accordingly, the next determination will be made with respect to us on June 30, 2023. In the future, we would lose our foreign private issuer status if (1) more than 50% of our outstanding voting securities are owned by U.S. residents and (2) a majority of our directors or executive officers are U.S. citizens or residents, more than fifty percent (50%) of our assets are located in the United States, or our business is administered principally in the United States. If we lose our foreign private issuer status, we will be required to file with the SEC periodic reports and registration statements on U.S. domestic issuer forms, which are more detailed and extensive than the forms available to a foreign private issuer. We will also have to mandatorily comply with U.S. federal proxy requirements, and our officers, directors and principal shareholders will become subject to the short-swing profit disclosure and recovery provisions of Section 16 of the Exchange Act. In addition, we will lose our ability to rely upon exemptions from certain corporate governance rules of Nasdaq. As a U.S. listed public company that is not a foreign private issuer, we will incur significant additional legal, accounting and other expenses that we will not incur as a foreign private issuer.

------

As we are a "foreign private issuer" and follow certain home country corporate governance practices, our shareholders may not have the same protections afforded to shareholders of companies that are subject to all Nasdaq corporate governance requirements.

As a foreign private issuer, we have the option to follow certain home country corporate governance practices rather than those of Nasdaq, provided that we disclose the requirements we are not following and describe the home country practices we are following. We may in the future elect to follow home country practices with regard to other matters. As a result, our shareholders may not have the same protections afforded to shareholders of companies that are subject to all Nasdaq corporate governance requirements.

#### The market price of our ADSs could be negatively affected by future issuances and sales of our ADSs or ordinary shares.
As of February 28, 2023, 143,510,865 ordinary shares were outstanding, including 29,915,952 ordinary shares in the form of American Depositary Shares. Sales by us or our shareholders of a substantial number of ADSs or ordinary shares in the public market, or the perception that these sales might occur, could cause the market price of our ADSs to decline or could impair our ability to raise capital through a future sale of, or pay for acquisitions using, our equity securities.

***We cannot guarantee that we will repurchase any of our ordinary shares pursuant to our announced repurchase plan or that our repurchase plan will enhance long-term shareholder value.***

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; On February 24, 2022, we announced a repurchase plan under which up to $75.0 million is available to purchase our ordinary shares. Pursuant to the plan, which was completed in the third quarter of 2022, we repurchased a total of 13,792,485 ordinary shares at an average price of 437.54 pence, for a total investment of approximately £60.5 million, or $75.0 million, including fees. In September 2022, our board of directors authorized a new share repurchase program, authorizing the repurchase of up to $20.0 million of ordinary shares on AIM. The new repurchase plan commenced on October 1, 2022, and will continue until April 1, 2023, or until it has been completed and the program may be suspended, modified, or discontinued at any time at our discretion, subject to applicable law. From October 1, 2022 through December 31, 2022, we repurchased under such plan a total of 3,114,310 ordinary shares at an average price of 304.48 pence, for a total investment of approximately £9.5 million, or $11.3 million, including fees. Since January 1, 2023, and through February 28, 2023, we repurchased an additional 1,250,391 ordinary shares.

Repurchases of our ordinary shares pursuant to our repurchase plan could affect the market price of our ADSs and/or ordinary shares or increase the volatility. Additionally, our repurchase plan could diminish our cash reserves, which may impact our ability to finance future growth and to pursue possible future strategic opportunities and acquisitions. There is no assurance that our repurchase plan will enhance long-term shareholder value, and short-term share price fluctuations could reduce the repurchase plan's effectiveness.

***There can be no assurance that we will not be classified as a passive foreign investment company, which could result in adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences to United States Holders of our ADSs.***

We would be classified as a passive foreign investment company ("PFIC") for any taxable year if, after the application of certain look-through rules, either: (i) 75% or more of our gross income for such year is "passive income" (as defined in the relevant provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended), or (ii) 50% or more of the value of our assets (determined on the basis of a quarterly average) during such year is attributable to assets that produce or are held for the production of passive income. For these purposes, cash and other assets readily convertible into cash or that do or could generate passive income are categorized as passive assets, and the value of goodwill and other unbooked intangible assets is generally taken into account. Passive income generally includes, among other things, rents, dividends, interest, royalties, gains from the disposition of passive assets and gains from commodities and securities transactions. For purposes of this test, we will be treated as owning a proportionate share of the assets and earning a proportionate share of the income of any other corporation of which we own, directly or indirectly, 25% or more (by value) of the stock. Based on the current and anticipated composition of our income, assets and operations, and the current price of the ADSs, we do not expect to be treated as a PFIC for the current taxable year or in the foreseeable future. However, whether we are a PFIC is a factual determination that must be made annually after the close of each taxable year. Moreover, the value of our assets for purposes of the PFIC determination may be determined by reference to the public price of our ADSs, which could fluctuate significantly. In addition, it is possible that the Internal Revenue Service (the "IRS") may take a contrary position with respect to our determination in any particular year, and therefore, there can be no assurance that we will not be classified as a PFIC in the current taxable year or in the future. Certain adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences could apply to a United States Holder (as defined in Item 10.E. "*Taxation—U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations*") if we are treated as a PFIC for any taxable year during which such United States Holder holds our ADSs. United States Holders should consult their tax advisors about the potential application of the PFIC rules to their investment in our ADSs. For further discussion, see Item 10.E. "*Taxation—U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations—Passive Foreign Investment Company*."

------

 ****If a United States person is treated as owning at least 10% of our shares (by vote or value), such holder may be subject to adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences.****

If a United States person is treated as owning (directly, indirectly or constructively) at least 10% of the value or voting power of our outstanding shares, such person may be treated as a "United States shareholder" with respect to each controlled foreign corporation ("CFC") in our group (if any). Because our group includes U.S. subsidiaries, certain of our non-U.S. subsidiaries could be treated as CFCs (regardless of whether we are treated as a CFC). A United States shareholder of a CFC may be required to report annually and include in its U.S. taxable income its pro rata share of "Subpart F income," "global intangible low-taxed income," and investments in U.S. property by CFCs, regardless of whether we make any distributions. An individual that is a United States shareholder with respect to a CFC generally would not be allowed certain tax deductions or foreign tax credits that would be allowed to a United States shareholder that is a U.S. corporation. Failure to comply with the associated reporting obligations may subject a United States shareholder to significant monetary penalties and may prevent the statute of limitations with respect to such shareholder's U.S. federal income tax return for the year for which reporting was due from starting. We cannot provide any assurances that we will assist investors in determining whether we are or any of our non-U.S. subsidiaries is treated as a CFC or whether any investor is treated as a United States shareholder with respect to any such CFC or furnish to any United States shareholders information that may be necessary to comply with the aforementioned reporting and tax paying obligations. The IRS has provided limited guidance on situations in which investors may rely on publicly available information to comply with their reporting and tax paying obligations with respect to foreign-controlled CFCs. A United States investor should consult its advisors regarding the potential application of these rules to an investment in our ADSs.

***We have broad discretion over the use of proceeds we received in our IPO and may not apply the proceeds in ways that increase the value of your investment.***

We intend to use and have used the net proceeds from our IPO for working capital, general corporate purpose and to fund growth, including for possible acquisitions. However, we do not currently have any definitive or preliminary plans with respect to the use of proceeds for such purposes in the future. Consequently, our management has broad discretion over the specific use of the net proceeds from our IPO and may do so in a way with which our investors disagree. The failure by our management to apply and invest these funds effectively may not yield a favorable return to our investors and may adversely affect our business and financial condition. Pending their use, we may invest the net proceeds in a manner that does not produce income or that loses value. If we do not use the net proceeds effectively, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be adversely affected.

***We incur increased costs as a result of operating as a U.S. listed public company, and our management is required to devote substantial time to new compliance initiatives and corporate governance practices.***

As a U.S. listed public company, and particularly after we are no longer an emerging growth company, we will incur significant legal, accounting and other expenses. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and the Consumer Protection Act, the listing requirements of Nasdaq and their applicable securities rules and regulations impose various requirements on non-U.S. reporting companies, including establishment and maintenance of effective disclosure and financial controls and corporate governance practices. Our management and other personnel need to devote a substantial amount of time to these compliance initiatives. Moreover, these rules and regulations increase our legal and financial compliance costs and make some activities more time-consuming and costly. For example, these rules and regulations make it more difficult and more expensive for us to obtain director and officer liability insurance and make it more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified members of our board of directors.

In addition, the applicable rules and regulations are often subject to varying interpretations, in many cases due to their lack of specificity, and, as a result, their application in practice may evolve over time as new guidance is provided by regulatory and governing bodies. This could result in continuing uncertainty regarding compliance matters and higher costs necessitated by ongoing revisions to disclosure and governance practices.

***Because we may not pay any cash dividends on our ADSs in the future, capital appreciation, if any, may be holders of ADSs sole source of gains and they may never receive a return on their investment.***

Our board of directors has sole discretion whether to pay dividends. If our board of directors decides to pay dividends, the form, frequency, and amount will depend upon our future, operations and earnings, capital requirements and surplus, general financial condition, contractual restrictions and other factors that our directors may deem relevant. The Israeli Companies Law, 5759-1999, or the Companies Law, imposes restrictions on our ability to declare and pay dividends. See Item 5.B. "*Operating and Financial Review and Prospects—Liquidity and Capital Resources*" for additional information. Payment of dividends may also be subject to Israeli withholding taxes. See Item 10.E. "*Taxation*" for additional information. As a result, capital appreciation, if any, on our ADSs may be your sole source of gains, and you will suffer a loss on your investment if you are unable to sell your ADSs at or above the price at which you purchased the ADSs. See Item 8.A. "*Consolidated Statements and Other Financial Information—Dividend Policy*."

------

#### Securities traded on AIM may carry a higher risk than securities traded on other exchanges, which may impact the value of your investment.
Our ordinary shares are currently traded on AIM. Investment in equities traded on AIM is sometimes perceived to carry a higher risk than an investment in equities quoted on exchanges with more stringent listing requirements, such as the main market of the London Stock Exchange, New York Stock Exchange or the Nasdaq Stock Market. This is because AIM is less heavily regulated and imposes less stringent corporate governance and ongoing reporting requirements than those other exchanges. In addition, AIM requires only half-yearly, rather than quarterly (which would apply to us in the U.S., if we are no longer classified as a foreign private issuer), financial reporting. You should be aware that the value of our ordinary shares may be influenced by many factors, some of which may be specific to us and some of which may affect AIM-quoted companies generally, including the depth and liquidity of the market, our performance, a large or small volume of trading in our ordinary shares, legislative changes and general economic, political or regulatory conditions, and that the prices may be volatile and subject to extensive fluctuations. Therefore, the market price of our ordinary shares, our ADSs or the ordinary shares underlying our ADSs, may not reflect the underlying value of our company.

#### You may not be able to exercise your right to vote the ordinary shares underlying your ADSs.
ADS holders may only exercise voting rights with respect to the ordinary shares underlying their respective ADSs in accordance with the provisions of the deposit agreement, which provides that a holder may vote the ordinary shares underlying any ADSs for any particular matter to be voted on by our shareholders either by withdrawing the ordinary shares underlying the ADSs or, to the extent permitted by applicable law and as permitted by the depositary, by requesting a temporary registration as shareholder and authorizing the depositary to act as proxy. However, you may not know about the meeting far enough in advance to withdraw those ordinary shares, and after such a withdrawal you would no longer hold ADSs, but rather you would directly hold the underlying ordinary shares. You also may not know about the meeting far enough in advance to request a temporary registration.

The depositary will try, as far as practical, to vote the ordinary shares underlying the ADSs as instructed by the ADS holders. In such an instance, if we ask for your instructions, the depositary, upon timely notice from us, will notify you of the upcoming vote and arrange to deliver our voting materials to you. We cannot guarantee that you will receive the voting materials in time to ensure that you can instruct the depositary to vote your ordinary shares or to withdraw your ordinary shares so that you can vote them yourself. If the depositary does not receive timely voting instructions from you, it may give a discretionary proxy to a person designated by us to vote the ordinary shares underlying your ADSs; provided, however, that no such discretionary proxy shall be given with respect to any matter to be voted upon as to which we inform the depositary that (i) we do not wish such proxy to be given, (ii) substantial opposition exists, or (iii) the rights of holders of ordinary shares may be adversely affected. Voting instructions may be given only in respect of a number of ADSs representing an integral number of ordinary shares or other deposited securities. In addition, the depositary and its agents are not responsible for failing to carry out voting instructions or for the manner of carrying out voting instructions. This means that you may not be able to exercise any right to vote that you may have with respect to the underlying ordinary shares, and there may be nothing you can do if the ordinary shares underlying your ADSs are not voted as you requested. In addition, the depositary is only required to notify you of any particular vote if it receives notice from us in advance of the scheduled meeting.

***Holders of the ADSs are not able to exercise the preemptive subscription rights related to the ordinary shares that they represent and may suffer dilution of their equity holding in the event of future issuances of our ordinary shares.***

As an AIM-quoted company, our articles of association currently in effect follow English law which generally provides shareholders with preemptive rights when new shares are issued for cash. Shareholders' preemptive subscription rights, in the event of issuances of ordinary shares against cash payment, may be disapplied by a special resolution of the shareholders at a general meeting of our shareholders. The absence of preemptive rights for existing equity holders may cause dilution to such holders.

Furthermore, the ADS holders are not entitled, even if such rights accrued to our shareholders in any given instance, to receive such preemptive subscription rights related to the ordinary shares that they represent. Rather, the depositary is required to endeavor to sell any such subscription rights that may accrue to the ordinary shares underlying the ADSs and to remit the net proceeds therefrom to the ADS holders pro rata. In addition, if the depositary is unable to sell rights, the depositary will allow the rights to lapse, in which case you will receive no value for these rights. Further, if we offer holders of our ordinary shares the option to receive dividends in either cash or ordinary shares, under the deposit agreement, ADS holders will not be permitted to elect to receive dividends in ordinary shares or cash but will receive whichever option we provide as a default to shareholders who fail to make such an election.

***Holders of ADSs may not receive distributions on our ordinary shares in the form of ADSs or any value for them if it is illegal or impractical to make them available to holders of ADSs.***

The depositary for our ADSs has agreed to pay to holders of ADSs the cash dividends or other distributions it or the custodian receives on our ordinary shares or other deposited securities after deducting its fees and expenses. Holders of our ADSs will receive these distributions in proportion to the number of our ordinary shares their ADSs represent. However, in accordance with the limitations set forth in the deposit agreement, it may be unlawful or impractical to make a distribution available to holders of ADSs. We have no obligation to take any other action to permit the distribution of our ADSs, ordinary shares, rights or anything else to holders of our ADSs. This means that holders of ADSs may not receive the distributions we make on our ordinary shares or any value from them if it is unlawful or impractical to make them available to them. These restrictions may have a material adverse effect on the value of a holder's ADSs.

------

***ADS holders may not be entitled to a jury trial with respect to claims arising under the deposit agreement, which could result in less favorable outcomes to the plaintiff(s) in any such action.***

The deposit agreement governing the ADSs representing our ordinary shares provides that, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, holders and beneficial owners of ADSs irrevocably waive the right to a jury trial of any claim that they may have against us or the depositary arising from or relating to our ordinary shares, our ADSs or the deposit agreement, including any claim under the U.S. federal securities laws. The waiver continues to apply to claims that arise during the period when a holder holds the ADSs, even if the ADS holder subsequently withdraws the underlying ordinary shares.

However, you will not be deemed, by agreeing to the terms of the deposit agreement, to have waived our or the depositary's compliance with U.S. federal securities laws and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. In fact, you cannot waive our or the depositary's compliance with U.S. federal securities laws and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. If we or the depositary opposed a demand for jury trial relying on above-mentioned jury trial waiver, it is up to the court to determine whether such waiver was enforceable considering the facts and circumstances of that case in accordance with the applicable state and federal law.

If this jury trial waiver provision is prohibited by applicable law, an action could nevertheless proceed under the terms of the deposit agreement with a jury trial. To our knowledge, the enforceability of a jury trial waiver under the federal securities laws has not been finally adjudicated by a federal court or by the United States Supreme Court. Nonetheless, we believe that a jury trial waiver provision is generally enforceable under the laws of the State of New York, which govern the deposit agreement, by a federal or state court in the City of New York. In determining whether to enforce a jury trial waiver provision, New York courts will consider whether the visibility of the jury trial waiver provision within the agreement is sufficiently prominent such that a party has knowingly waived any right to trial by jury. We believe that this is the case with respect to the deposit agreement and the ADSs. In addition, New York courts will not enforce a jury trial waiver provision in order to bar a viable setoff or counterclaim sounding in fraud or one which is based upon a creditor's negligence in failing to liquidate collateral upon a guarantor's demand, or in the case of an intentional tort claim, none of which we believe are applicable in the case of the deposit agreement or the ADSs. If you or any other holders or beneficial owners of ADSs bring a claim against us or the depositary relating to the matters arising under the deposit agreement or our ADSs, including claims under federal securities laws, you or such other holder or beneficial owner may not have the right to a jury trial regarding such claims, which may limit and discourage lawsuits against us or the depositary. If a lawsuit is brought against us or the depositary according to the deposit agreement, it may be heard only by a judge or justice of the applicable trial court, which would be conducted according to different civil procedures and may have different outcomes compared to that of a jury trial, including results that could be less favorable to the plaintiff(s) in any such action.

Moreover, as the jury trial waiver relates to claims arising out of or relating to the ADSs or the deposit agreement, we believe that, as a matter of construction of the clause, the waiver would likely continue to apply to ADS holders who withdraw the ordinary shares from the ADS facility with respect to claims arising before the cancellation of the ADSs and the withdrawal of the ordinary shares, and the waiver would most likely not apply to ADS holders who subsequently withdraw the ordinary shares represented by ADSs from the ADS facility with respect to claims arising after the withdrawal. However, to our knowledge, there has been no case law on the applicability of the jury trial waiver to ADS holders who withdraw the ordinary shares represented by the ADSs from the ADS facility.

***Holders of our ADSs or ordinary shares have limited choice of forum, which could limit your ability to obtain a favorable judicial forum for complaints against us, the depositary or our respective directors, officers or employees.***

The deposit agreement governing our ADSs provides that (i) the deposit agreement and the ADSs will be interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, and (ii) as an owner of ADSs, you irrevocably agree that any legal action arising out of the deposit agreement and the ADSs involving us, or the depositary may only be instituted in a state or federal court in the city of New York. Any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring any our ADSs, whether by transfer, sale, operation of law or otherwise, shall be deemed to have notice of and have irrevocably agreed and consented to these provisions.

This choice of forum provision may increase your cost and limit your ability to bring a claim in a judicial forum that you find favorable for disputes with us, the depositary or our and the depositary's respective directors, officers or employees, which may discourage such lawsuits against us, the depositary and our and the depositary's respective directors, officers or employees. However, it is possible that a court could find either choice of forum provision to be inapplicable or unenforceable. The enforceability of similar choice of forum provisions has been challenged in legal proceedings. It is possible that a court could find this type of provisions to be inapplicable or unenforceable.

------

#### Holders of ADSs may be subject to limitations on transfer of their ADSs.
ADSs are transferable on the books of the depositary. However, the depositary may close its transfer books at any time or from time to time when it deems expedient in connection with the performance of its duties. In addition, the depositary may refuse to deliver, transfer or register transfers of ADSs generally when our books or the books of the depositary are closed, or at any time if we or the depositary deems it advisable to do so because of any requirement of law or of any government or governmental body, or under any provision of the deposit agreement, or for any other reason in accordance with the terms of the deposit agreement.

#### Exposure to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations could negatively impact our results of operations.
While the majority of the transactions through our platform are denominated in U.S. dollars, we have transacted in foreign currencies, both for inventory and for payments by advertisers or publishers from use of our platform. We also have expenses denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. Given our anticipated international growth, we expect the number of transactions in a variety of foreign currencies to continue to grow in the future. While we generally require a fee from advertisers or publishers that pay in non-U.S. currency, this fee may not always cover foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. Although we currently have a program to hedge exposure to foreign currency fluctuations, the use of hedging instruments may not be available for all currencies or may not always offset losses resulting from foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. Moreover, the use of hedging instruments can itself result in losses if we are unable to structure effective hedges with such instruments.

***A small number of significant beneficial owners of our shares have significant influence over matters requiring shareholder approval, which could delay or prevent a change of control.***

The four largest beneficial owners of our ordinary shares, entities and individuals affiliated with Mithaq Capital SPC, Toscafund Asset Management LLP, Schroder Investment Management and News Corporation, each of which beneficially owns more than 5% of our outstanding ordinary shares as of February 28, 2023 and in the aggregate 55.1% of our ordinary shares. As a result, these shareholders could exercise significant influence over our operations and business strategy and, acting together, would have sufficient voting power to influence the outcome of matters requiring shareholder approval. These matters may include:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the composition of our board of directors which has the authority to direct our business and to appoint and remove our officers;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• approving or rejecting a merger, consolidation or other business combination;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• raising future capital; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• amending our articles of association which govern the rights attached to our ordinary shares.

This concentration of ownership of our ADSs or ordinary shares could delay or prevent proxy contests, mergers, tender offers, open-market purchase programs or other purchases of our ADSs or ordinary shares that might otherwise give you the opportunity to realize a premium over the then-prevailing market price of our ADSs. This concentration of ownership may also adversely affect our share price.

#### 4.B. BUSINESS OVERVIEW

#### Our Mission
Our mission is to bring together an end-to-end platform to enable powerful partnerships and deliver results across the advertising ecosystem.

#### Overview
Tremor International is a collection of brands uniting creativity, data and technology across the open internet. Our end-to-end, video-first platform facilitates and optimizes engaging advertising campaigns for brands, media groups and content creators worldwide—enabling powerful partnerships and delivering meaningful results. A leader in Connected TV and video, Tremor International's footprint is expanding across some of the industry's fastest-growing activities, driven by a global team of seasoned technologists and digital natives.

We believe there is a significant market opportunity within the approximately $567 billion global digital advertising market that is expected to grow at a CAGR of approximately 10% through 2026, according to eMarketer. Publishers rely on advertising to support their businesses and brands, and advertisers use digital mediums to capture uniquely targeted and viewable impressions. We believe the digital advertising market remains fragmented and that our full-service end-to-end platform and vast expertise within Video and CTV puts us in a strong position to continue to increase our market share from traditional ad sales channels.

We believe that we are positioned to benefit from several trends in the evolving advertising ecosystem, including the proliferation of digital media consumption, adoption of programmatic advertising, a growing focus on premium formats such as Video and CTV, and the increasing sophistication of the overall digital landscape. We address the broad and evolving digital advertising market through our three core offerings, including proprietary DSP solutions that advertisers leverage to manage digital advertising campaigns, a proprietary SSP solution that publishers leverage to optimally monetize digital inventory and a proprietary data management platform ("DMP") solution which is integrated with both our DSP and SSP solutions. Our versatile DMP solution benefits from vast amounts of data and provides optimal campaign recommendations for audience sets by employing advanced machine learning algorithms. The contextualization of the data synthesized by our DMP solution provides advertisers with a comprehensive, personalized view of audiences, enabling more effective targeting across formats and devices and optimizes the monetization of publisher inventory. By combining these three proprietary solutions as well as integrations with industry-leading partners, we provide an end-to-end platform that is dynamic and flexible to our customers' needs, which enables us to address more digital ad spend.

Our customers are comprised of both ad buyers, including brands and agencies, and digital publishers. Our platform includes a diversified customer base of approximately 1,250 active customers and approximately 1,530 active publishers as of December 31, 2022, with approximately 20 billion unique users for the month ended December 31, 2022 and serves advertisements in 246 countries. These figures include combined reach between both Tremor International and Amobee. We generate revenue through platform fees that are tailored to fit the customer's specific utilization of our solutions and include (i) a percentage of spend, (ii) flat fees and (iii) fixed CPM.

During 2022, the Company, its customers, and its partners, continued to face challenges associated with the COVID-19 pandemic, and residual impacts from combatting the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as persistent macroeconomic challenges driven by several additional factors. Monetary and fiscal policy makers intervened to cool an overheated global economy which experienced challenges associated with rising inflation caused by several factors including pandemic-era policies, consumers having more money to spend, supply chain constraints putting upward pressure on input costs, and an expensive labor market, to alleviate significant cost pressures felt by consumers. As a result, monetary policymakers made coordinated efforts to drive higher interest rates to limit consumer spending and, this intentional cooling of the economy, combined with broader geopolitical, macroeconomic and advertiser uncertainty, drove challenging economic conditions during 2022. While certain activities of the market proved to be more resilient than others, the impacts were broad-based across industries and the global economy.

As a result, our Video revenue and CTV revenue grew from $242.7 million and $80.3 million, respectively, in the twelve months ended December 31, 2021 to $243.3 million and $97.2 million, respectively, in the twelve months ended December 31, 2022. The 2022 results include contributions from Amobee for the period from when the acquisition closed on September 12, 2022 through December 31, 2022. Video revenue for Tremor International as a standalone company was impacted by challenging macroeconomic conditions experienced across several industries, including rising interest rates, supply chain constraints, rising inflation, geopolitical uncertainty, and recession concerns, which pressured the advertising demand environment. This pressure, however, was offset by Video revenue contributed by Amobee for the period from when we closed the acquisition, through the end of 2022. CTV revenue for Tremor as a standalone company, however, was more resilient during 2022 as advertisers continued to advertise using CTV to increase brand awareness through our scaled end-to-end suite of technology solutions and expertise within the actvity, despite challenging market conditions. Amobee also contributed positive CTV revenue from when we closed the acquisition through the end of 2022, furthering the Company's year-over-year growth within the activity. This growth within Video and CTV, including contributions from Amobee from when we closed the acquisition on September 12, 2022 through December 31, 2022, contributed to 3% growth in Programmatic revenue for the year ended December 31, 2022, compared to the year ended December 31, 2021.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Our total comprehensive income for the twelve months ended December 31, 2022, decreased by $54.4 million from the equivalent figure for the twelve months ended December 31, 2021, and represented a 77.0% year-over-year decrease as compared to our total comprehensive income for the twelve months ended December 31, 2021. We generated $16.2 million and $70.6 million in total comprehensive income for the years ended December 31, 2022, and 2021, respectively. Our Adjusted EBITDA for the twelve months ended December 31, 2022, decreased by $16.3 million from the equivalent figure for the twelve months ended December 31, 2021 and represented a 10.1% year-over-year decrease. Additionally, we generated $144.9 million and $161.2 million of Adjusted EBITDA for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Further, we had a net cash position of $115.5 million as of December 31, 2022.

#### Our Industry
We operate in the digital advertising industry, which is a core pillar of monetizing digital properties accessible by the Internet. We specialize in digital video advertising, which collectively comprised 73% of our revenue for the year ended December 31, 2022, across mobile video, desktop video and CTV.

We believe the key industry trends shaping the digital advertising market include continued growth of digital media consumption, shift to programmatic advertising, data-driven decision making, consumer privacy and regulatory concerns, and seasonality.

#### Continued Growth of Digital Media Consumption
Audiences continue to spend an increasing amount of time online for social, business, and purchasing needs. We believe that the COVID-19 pandemic and the subsequent work-from-home and shelter-in-place orders accelerated the adoption of numerous traditionally offline activities to be conducted online, including telehealth, fitness classes, food delivery, and e-commerce. As consumers continue to spend more time online for everyday activities, we believe that brands and advertisers will increasingly allocate ad budgets to where the audiences are. According to eMarketer, in the United States, more than a third of the day is expected to be spent on digital media consumption during 2023. This digital consumption is happening across all devices, including mobile, desktop, tablet, and CTV. We expect that these trends will further increase both the supply and demand of available ad impressions that can be monetized programmatically.

#### Shift to Programmatic Advertising
Programmatic advertising is the use of software and algorithms to match buyers and sellers of digital advertising in a technology-driven marketplace. The transactions are executed in milliseconds and do not require manual labor for execution. It is becoming increasingly prominent in the digital advertising industry, as publishers and advertisers prefer that their bids/asks for digital ad inventory be completed in an easy, efficient, and automated manner. Additional advantages of programmatic advertising include enhanced audience targeting, attribution, and measurement as well as improved customized campaign management workflow solutions. According to eMarketer, US programmatic digital video ad spending is expected to increase from approximately $67 billion in 2022 to roughly $97 billion in 2024, at a CAGR of approximately 21%.

#### Data Driven Decision Making
As the digital media industry grows, increased consumer engagement by audiences has created vast amounts of data and behavioral insights that can be harnessed to maximize return on investment ("ROI") for advertisers and optimize the monetization of digital inventory for publishers. These insights include industry compliant anonymized data sets relating to consumer interests, preferences and intent, as well as auction data of advertising bid requests. Technology solutions must efficiently and effectively digest, analyze and process an ever-increasing amount of data seamlessly while navigating the increased requirements of regulatory challenges and audience protection.

#### Consumer Privacy and Regulatory Concerns
Over the last few years, there has been increased scrutiny concerning consumer data and the ways in which that data is being used in connection with ad targeting. Globally and locally, new legislation has been introduced and enforced that requires new industry rules and standards. Some of these regulations include the GDPR, CCPA and CPRA, and IDFA. Additionally, web browsers such as Safari and Firefox have also removed third-party cookies. These rules and regulations require all constituents within digital advertising to consistently adapt and evolve.

#### Seasonality
In the advertising industry, companies commonly experience seasonal fluctuations in revenue. For example, many marketers allocate the largest portion of their budgets to the fourth quarter of the calendar year in order to coincide with increased holiday purchasing. Historically, the fourth quarter of the year has reflected our highest level of advertising activity for the year. We generally expect the subsequent first quarter to reflect lower activity levels. In addition, historical seasonality may not be predictive of future results given the potential for changes in advertising buying patterns and consumer activity due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and efforts to combat residual impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic, rising inflation, and several other challenging macroeconomic conditions. For example, in 2020, advertising activities were less associated with the holiday spending patterns. Instead, as business activities adapted to the new environment amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, in the second half of 2020, we saw a significant resurgence in advertising demand on our platform. Similarly, in 2022 due to residual impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, supply chains and advertising buying patterns and consumer activity continued to fluctuate. Nevertheless, as countries continue to recover from the COVID-19 pandemic and return to pre-pandemic business conditions, we expect our revenue to continue to fluctuate based on seasonal factors that affect the advertising industry as a whole.

#### Our Market Opportunity
We believe that we are well positioned to capitalize on some of the fastest-growing activities of digital advertising, such as Video, including CTV, which reflected 73% of our revenue for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Global digital advertising spend is forecasted to be $567 billion for 2022 and is expected to grow at an approximately 10% CAGR to $836 billion in 2026. As advertisers follow audiences to next-generation mediums, digital advertising channels are expected to outpace growth of total global media ad spend. The increased internet bandwidth in developing countries is acting as an additional tailwind, and the increasing proliferation of next-generation mobile, CTV, and on-the-go technology devices in developed countries is driving video viewership. We believe these trends will amplify full-screen video usage, which has long been the preferred choice of advertisers. We expect these long-term systemic shifts will enable us to grow at a faster rate than the broader digital advertising market.

#### Digital Video and CTV Advertising
We address some of the fastest growing areas within digital advertising, Video and CTV, which are expected to grow at an accelerated rate compared to other formats. In the United States, where we generate the majority of our revenue, the growth rates and adoption of Video and CTV are expected to be even higher. According to eMarketer, U.S. CTV ad spend is projected to grow at a CAGR of approximately 19.9% from 2022 to 2026, reaching roughly $43.0 billion. U.S. Video ad spend is projected to grow at a CAGR of approximately 17.0% from 2022 to 2026, reaching roughly $143.2 billion. Additionally, the number of digital video viewers worldwide is expected to reach approximately 3.81 billion people by 2025.

Linear TV budgets are also shifting towards digital video and CTV, further driving demand for these premium ad formats. These overarching market trends underpin our strategic shift to focus on these activities of digital advertising, which given the proliferation of smart TVs and the increasing number of streaming providers, will remain an exciting growth activity. Additionally, as linear TV and CTV continue to converge, with many linear TV broadcasters now opportunistically launching, or expanding, their CTV footprints through digital assets such as FAST channels, we believe customers will continue to seek platforms such as ours that can assist advertisers and broadcasters with cross-planning capabilities between linear TV and CTV, a capability we gained through our acquisition of Amobee, which we anticipate can drive even higher levels of CTV spend to our end-to-end platform over time as well.

#### Mobile Advertising
The number of consumers with smart phones and high-speed internet is expected to continue rising, which will make mobile advertising a prominent channel within digital. According to eMarketer, U.S. mobile ad spend is projected to grow at a CAGR of approximately 10.8% from 2022 to 2026, reaching approximately $257 billion.

#### Our Role in the Digital Advertising Ecosystem

#### Advertisers and Agencies
Spending begins with advertisers, who often engage advertising agencies to help plan and execute their advertising campaigns. To better control and optimize their advertising operations, advertisers and agencies are consolidating spend with fewer, larger technology platform providers who can deliver transparency and ensure the highest level of inventory quality and control. These advertisers and agencies access our platform through Tremor Video, Amobee, and third-party DSPs. We believe our end-to-end technology platform and direct relationships with advertisers and agencies will lead to significant consolidation of spend on our platform.

#### Demand Side Platforms ("DSP")
Advertisers and agencies often engage DSPs, which serve as advertising demand aggregators, to execute their digital marketing campaigns across various ad formats. We offer both full-service and self-managed options through our DSPs, enabling highly customized and robust campaigns. We are also integrated with other leading DSPs globally, such as The Trade Desk, Inc. and Google DV360, enabling customers to execute real-time transactions with our publisher clients.

#### Supply Side Platforms ("SSP")
SSPs such as ours are designed to monetize digital inventory for publishers and app developers by enabling their content to have the necessary software code and requirements for programmatic integration. Buyers and sellers come together through our marketplace to monetize, target, and purchase available digital advertising inventory. Our platform rapidly and efficiently processes significant volumes of advertising bid information, providing a seamless digital experience for our customers. Traditionally, SSPs have focused exclusively on the needs of sellers in this process and have limited their interactions with buyers to the buyer's agent, the DSP. As buyers have sought greater control of their advertising supply chains, we have extended the capabilities of our specialized platform over the last several years to serve the needs of advertisers and agencies.

------

#### Publishers and Content Providers
Digital publishers and app developers create websites, digital content and applications that contain content/mediums for consumption for users, along with adjacent viewable space for digital advertisements. As consumers navigate these websites and apps, individual ad impressions are presented to them across different formats/channels. These impressions are typically sold to advertisers and agencies programmatically, in real-time via a third-party technology infrastructure platform or SSP solution. Publishers and app developers rely on advertising revenue as the key driver for their businesses and depend on the capabilities of these third parties in order to achieve optimal yield for their advertising inventory. As of December 31, 2022, we served approximately 1,530 active publishers worldwide on our platform, consisting of 145,809 active sites and apps that we have direct access to publish an ad for our customers. These figures reflect the combined reach between both Tremor International and Amobee as of December 31, 2022.

#### Our Strengths
We believe the following attributes and capabilities provide us with long-term competitive advantages.

#### Established Expertise in Video and CTV
We believe Video, including CTV and mobile video, are amongst the fastest growing activities of digital advertising, and exposure to these activities constituted 73% of our total revenue for the year ended December 31, 2022 and approximately 90% of our revenue without performance activity for the year ended December 31, 2022. These results include contributions from Amobee for the period from when we closed the acquisition on September 12, 2022 through December 31, 2022. We were one of the first movers in the digital video advertising and CTV markets, which gave us early traction, strong customer adoption, and recognition as a leading technology within the space. Our platform was intentionally built as an end-to-end video campaign delivery solution and over time, both through organic investment and acquisitions, we have further enhanced our platform's technology capabilities within Video, including CTV.

#### End-to-End Platform with Proprietary Technology
We leverage our advanced technology stack to enable advertisers and publishers to maximize their ROI, while optimizing the path between audiences and brands by leveraging our proprietary data sets. We believe we have a competitive advantage by accessing the entire ecosystem through our proprietary data, unique demand and supply sources and partnerships with premium vendors. As a technology first solution, we have the flexibility of an agnostic platform capable of integrating with different third-party sources to service our customers.

#### Scale and Reach on the Audience, Advertiser and Publisher
Our platform currently accommodates over 135 billion daily ad requests, approximately 1,500 terabytes of daily data, approximately 320 million daily ad impressions, and more than 100 million daily unique sites or apps. These figures reflect daily ad requests, data, and ad impressions accommodated by both Tremor International and Amobee combined. Our significant daily volume of ad requests, data, and ad impressions gives us scale with publishers and provides access to direct and exclusive supply of premium advertising inventory, enabling our advertising customers to avoid intermediaries and reduce costs. Operating an end-to-end platform strongly positions the Company to minimize loss of scale typically associated with two independent platforms user-syncing with each other. This advantage positions the Company to maintain efficiency and high scalability on buying strategies that leverage audience targeting.

#### Robust Data Set Fully Integrated into and Generated by Our Platform
Our proprietary DMP is a flexible platform that can be easily integrated across various campaigns and formats. Our DMP leverages first-party data and third-party partnerships to identify and reach curated audiences, benefiting both our advertising and publisher customers. Our platform provides artificial intelligence in the form of machine learning algorithms and statistical models to aggregate and analyze vast amounts of data and contextualizes it into easily usable action items, which can be used across campaigns in real-time.

Our machine learning algorithms enable us to process millions of requests per second which supports several of the optimization and prediction models in our platform including invalid traffic monitoring, viewability, queries per second, bidding and pricing models. These machine learning capabilities help our customers achieve their key performance indicators, optimize cost of media and protect against invalid traffic. Additionally, our DMP utilizes machine learning algorithms to build and expand activities in real time.

#### Management Team of Industry Veterans with Extensive Expertise
Our senior management has an extensive background in the advertising technology industry, which we believe gives us a competitive advantage. We have vast experience in acquiring synergistic businesses and a strong track record of integrating successful acquisitions, further driving growth and profitability.

------

#### Profitable Business Model
We have been Adjusted EBITDA and total comprehensive income profitable since 2014 and continue to improve our cost structure. For the year ended December 31, 2022, our net profit margin was 4.8% and our Adjusted EBITDA margin was 43.2%. These figures include contributions from Amobee for the period from when the acquisition closed on September 12, 2022 through December 31, 2022. When we acquired Amobee, it was a loss-making operation which adversely impacted our margins in 2022. As we continue with the ongoing integration of Amobee into the Tremor International technology ecosystem, we expect to incrementally increase our margins over time, back towards historical levels. Our structural cost advantages enable us to continuously invest in driving innovation both organically and through acquisitions, while delivering both top line revenue growth and profitability.

#### Our Growth Strategy
We believe that programmatic advertising is still an underpenetrated market that will experience robust growth over the next decade as ad budgets continue to shift to digital and as digital continues to shift towards programmatic execution. We intend to capitalize on these secular trends by pursuing growth opportunities that include:

#### Focus on Core Areas of Growth in Video and CTV
CTV is one of the fastest growth formats within digital advertising, and this trend is expected to continue over the next several years according to eMarketer. In the United States, CTV ad spend is expected to grow at a CAGR of approximately 19.9% from 2022 to 2026, and Video is expected to grow at a CAGR of approximately 17.0%, reaching roughly $143.2 billion by 2026. Digital video and CTV comprise approximately 91% of our revenue without performance activity for the year ended December 31, 2022, including contributions from Amobee for the period from when we closed the acquisition on September 12, 2022 through December 31, 2022, and have been core focuses for us since inception. We plan to leverage our existing expertise in Video and CTV to increase our market share and introduce new technologies and solutions.

#### Introduce New Products and Invest in our Technology Stack
As we grow our market share and add new customers, we continue to invest in our technology stack and develop new innovative products. We are continuously trying to introduce new innovative solutions and products to the rapidly evolving digital advertising market. Some potential areas of growth and investment include enhancing our proprietary data sets, enhancing our CTV solution capabilities and marketplace, enhancing our audience targeting capabilities, expanding our alternative identifier solutions and enhancing our global platform coverage capabilities.

We are providing customers with creative alternatives to plan and execute their campaigns, giving them complimentary scale and opportunities to enhance current audience targeting strategies. For example, we offer, and will continue to enhance, contextual targeting solutions from content data collected via our publisher partnerships as well as third-party solutions integrated into our ecosystem.

There is market movement away from cookie-based tracking which has created an increase in demand for alternative solutions. We have partnerships, and are integrating, with major alternative identifier solutions such as IdentityLink and Unified ID 2.0. We are committed to helping define and support new privacy requirements and identifier mechanisms as industry standards evolve. We believe that not everyone in the industry will adopt a single solution alternative to cookie-based tracking and we are building our platform to support various identifier solutions.

#### Strengthen Our Relationship with Existing Customers
We are constantly improving functionality on our platform to attract new customers and encourage our existing customer base to allocate more of their ad spend and ad inventory to our platform. We believe as programmatic gains more widespread adoption and as brands and publishers continue to focus on Video and CTV, we are strongly positioned to increase our customer base and generate additional revenue from existing customers.

#### Expand Our International Footprint and United States Market Share
We continue to acquire new publishers and advertisers globally and invest in expanding our global footprint, providing significant global demand and supply of digital ad impressions across all channels and formats. We will continue to invest in third-party integrations, maintaining and enhancing our platform's flexibility. We are leveraging our existing technology stack to provide innovative solutions to new and existing customers regardless of location or platform. We consistently innovate and develop new tools and products that enable our customers to maximize their benefit from using our platform and services.

#### Continue to Bolster our Data Capabilities
We leverage real-time data, artificial intelligence and machine learning capabilities to synthesize, aggregate and contextualize vast amounts of data sets to help our advertisers and publishers optimize their digital ad spend/inventory. Our DMP solution was architected to be flexible, which allows us to deliver impactful and unique insights that are agnostic to format or device type. By owning our own proprietary DMP solution, we are able to provide robust analytics, insights, and better segmentation on a global basis. We believe this gives us a large competitive advantage and enables higher ROI to our advertisers and optimal yield on digital inventory to our publishers.

------

#### Leverage our Industry Expertise and Target Select Acquisitions
We have been successful in past acquisitions and may direct our industry experience and focus to identify future complementary acquisitions to further broaden our scale and technology solutions. To the extent we identify attractive acquisition opportunities, we have the experience, leadership and track record to successfully execute strategic transactions and integrate acquired businesses into our platform.

 from various sources in order to optimize results of their advertising campaigns. Our DMP provides insights and recommendations pertaining
 to geographic, behavioral, and demographic data, among others in a unified solution. We believe an integrated DMP is a key component to
 the marketplace because it enables advertisers and publishers to use and activate data to target audiences with more accuracy across several
 different channels.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Supply Side Platform – We offer a self-service SSP solution for digital publishers to sell their online ad placements via a

 side partners an advanced planning product for their premium linear TV and digital video investments that allows broadcasters to improve
 yields on their inventory while helping to maximize return-on-ad-spends for advertisers. We recently launched a cross platform offering
 which allows broadcasters to package both linear and digital supplies together for their upfront deals. We are also working to expand
 this offering for demand side agency partners who we believe would benefit from such a solution to reduce waste and offer maximum flexibility
 to their clients when budgets are shifted across linear and digital premium video during the broadcast year. The integration of ATV into
 Tremor's technology stack creates a significant growth opportunity for us in the premium activity of the market where we can create

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Meaningful forecasting and reporting tools, as our DSPs can accurately measure how many households and
 unique users an advertising campaign is able to reach through any targeting initiatives to ensure campaign strategies are achievable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Robust omni-channel reporting and insights tools which enables advertisers to analyze across device and channel campaign effectiveness
 against various key performance indicators with the ability to compare their statistics through various comprehensive benchmarks.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Access to our creative studio (Tr.ly) with deep expertise to support a variety of creative needs and generate
 ideas to enrich messaging and consumer engagements.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Data and brand surveys that provide meaningful information for advertisers to evaluate brand lift and behavioral

Key features of ATV include:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Linear TV Planning:** Data driven
 linear TV has been growing in significance. Our Linear TV Planning feature allows sellers at national broadcasters to generate linear
 TV plans during and after upfronts. Budgets ranging from hundreds of thousands to hundreds of millions of dollars can be allocated at
 the program airing with a high level of granularity around key data points such as schedules, days of weeks and time of the day. While
 data driven linear TV is expected to grow slowly due to digital content taking precedence, it is expected to remain a significant portion
 of the ad spend for many years to come.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Cross-Platform Planning:** Due
 to fragmentation in the industry, advertisers often experience significant budget waste when
 trying to mirror similar audiences across linear and digital video channels. Our Cross-platform planner allows sellers and buyers to use
 a deduplicated audience universe across linear and digital channels to produce a precise plan for upfront investment and post upfront
 adjustments. We recently launched this product with our strategic national broadcaster clients. The Cross-Platform Planning platform was
 built using advanced data science and AI/ML methodologies. We believe cross-platform planning is a highly differentiated and unique offering
 in the market.

#### Brand Intelligence
Key features of Brand Intelligence include:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A platform that unifies disparate data across digital, linear and social environments to uncover insights and turn them into robust
 and seamless targeting capabilities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Superior artificial intelligence and natural language processing capabilities,
 to drive accurate and unique insights and changes in behaviors and trends.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Provides clients with a comprehensive set of capabilities to discover, understand, and keep pace with their customers across channels,
 so they can leverage real time insights to inform and enrich tactical activation based on consumer behaviors, sentiment, trends and interests.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Leveraging a multitude of rich, cross-channel data sources, including
 linear TV, CTV, digital and social, combined with a proprietary panel, for clients to extend their reach with greater relevance across
 targeting strategies and tactics.

#### Our Customers
Our customers consist of leading global brands and advertising agencies on the demand side, and high-quality publishers on the supply side, across several industries, including retail, entertainment, consumer, financial services, healthcare and more. We had approximately 1,250 active customers for the year ended December 31, 2022 including prominent members of the U7 Council such as American Express Company, GSK plc, Proctor & Gamble Co, Unilever plc and others. This figure includes combined customer reach between both Tremor International and Amobee for the year ended December 31, 2022.

On our demand side, we have brands and agencies using our self-service offerings, our own managed services offerings and third-party DSP integrations. Buyers and advertisers transact through these tools. On the supply side, we service digital publishers, app developers and subscribers to our self-service platform.

We generally enter into contracts with our customers either through master services agreements ("MSAs") and/or insertion orders. An insertion order is an agreement entered into by an advertiser and publisher to govern the terms of running a particular campaign. Our customers typically enter into MSAs with us that give users access to our platform. These MSAs typically have one-year terms that renew automatically, unless earlier terminated.

We have long-standing relationships with our customer base. Our customers tend to repeatedly use our platform, illustrated by our Contribution ex-TAC retention rate of 80% for the year ended December 31, 2022. While our retention rate is solid, the retention rate was significantly impacted by challenging macroeconomic conditions that created uncertainty, and reduced spend, within the advertising demand environment. These conditions were observed within the industry throughout 2022. However, over time, and in more normalized market conditions, we expect customers to typically increase their level of spend, and adoption of additional products, across our end-to-end technology platform due to the convenience of transacting with one vendor that can service them in multiple ways, the inconvenience associated with switching vendors and learning a new technology, as well as the data, return on ad spend, and cost benefits provided by our suite of technology solutions.

#### Our Competition
We have a number of competitors that operate in portions of our business, but few of our competitors provide the full end-to-end technology solution that we offer.

We believe that our long track record and expertise in the digital advertising industry gives us significant advantages with regards to platform development and expertise, as well as a long development lead ahead of new entrants. We also believe that we compete primarily based on the performance of campaigns running on our platform, capabilities of our platform, our identity resolution capabilities, omni-channel capabilities, planning tools and our advance reporting and measurement capabilities.

On the demand side, companies such as Roku Inc., Viant Technology, Inc., Samsung, Inc. and The Trade Desk, Inc. are some of our key competitors.

On the supply side, companies such as Magnite, Inc., Freewheel and PubMatic, Inc. are our main competitors, all of which compete to provide publisher inventory to advertisers.

We believe the principal competitive factors in our industry include the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• proven technology, software-as-a-service offering and optimization capabilities;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• omni-channel execution;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• quality and scale of digital inventory and demand;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• depth and breadth of relationships with brand advertisers, premium publishers and agencies;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• full suite of viewability, measurement, verification and brand safety offerings;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• flexible pricing; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• transparency in the ecosystem.

We believe that we compete favorably with respect to all of these factors and are well positioned as a full-service end-to-end platform catering to both advertisers and publishers.

#### Technology and Development
Our business model enables us to invest in our research and development efforts, which have helped grow our business. Our platform is extremely efficient at managing large amounts of complex data and is leveraged by both advertisers and publishers in real time. We are committed to innovative technologies and the rapid introduction of enhanced functionalities to support the dynamic needs of our advertisers and publishers. We therefore expect technology and development expense to increase as we continue to invest in our platform to support increased advertising spend volume and international expansion. Our technology and development team is based in the United States and Israel. As of December 31, 2022, research and development expenses accounted for 14.7% of our operating expenses. This includes expenses from Amobee for the period from when we closed the acquisition on September 12, 2022 through December 31, 2022.

#### Sales and Marketing
As an end-to-end platform, we have highly qualified sales teams dedicated to acquiring new premium advertising and publisher customers, which we further grew and enhanced through the acquisition of Amobee, and subsequent integration of those sales team members into the combined Company. These teams focus on selling access to our platform through self-service and managed service offerings. Our global sales and marketing team consisted of approximately 621 employees as of December 31, 2022, including team members added through the acquisition of Amobee, and takes a proactive hands-on approach to cultivating and enhancing new and existing advertiser and publisher relationships.

We have dedicated teams focused on post-sale support to ensure customer success as well. Our client success team onboards advertisers and liaises directly with the customer on a regular basis to optimize delivery against key performance indicators and help meet their goals throughout the campaign life cycle. Our publisher operations team onboards publishers and engages directly with the customer to support their needs and effectively monetize inventory. We expect to continue to expand our sales and marketing and customer support teams as we expand into new industry verticals and geographical markets and add additional products across our technology ecosystem.

------

#### Our Team and Culture
As part of our track record of successfully integrating acquisitions, we pride ourselves on bringing together new teams under one culture. Each day, we strive to be as innovative, committed, collaborative and authentic as possible, with no ego which is why these are our global company values.

Our management team encourages employees to share their feedback, ideas, and thoughts by promoting a transparent organizational culture and an open-door policy. We also introduced internal surveys to garner employee feedback and satisfaction and to receive suggestions.

We communicate and build relationships with external stakeholders via our marketing efforts, including digital and social media, events, public relations, direct marketing and online advertising among other initiatives. We have "People & Culture" programs, which provide employees with volunteer opportunities in many of our local communities, particularly focused on education and serving underprivileged communities. We as a company also regularly donate to volunteer associations.

Our employees tend to be long-tenured across our entities, with an average tenure of the leadership team being approximately seven years, and more than three years across all employees.

We believe we attract talented employees to our company, and sophisticated customers to our platform, in large part because of our vision and unwavering commitment to using cutting-edge technologies to create products that help advance the digital advertising industry.

As of December 31, 2022, we had 1,087 employees globally, including employees integrated into the combined Company through the acquisition of Amobee.

#### Intellectual Property
Our success depends, in part, on our ability to protect the proprietary methods and technologies that we develop or otherwise acquire. We rely on copyright, trade secret laws, confidentiality procedures and contractual provisions to protect our proprietary methods and technologies and own more than 50 patents. We rely upon common law protection for certain marks, such as "Tremor" and "Tremor Video."

We generally enter into confidentiality and/or license agreements with our employees, consultants, vendors and advertisers, and we generally limit access to, and distribution of, our proprietary information. We intend to pursue additional intellectual property protection to the extent we believe it would be beneficial and cost effective.

#### Privacy and Data
Modern consumers use multiple platforms to learn about and purchase products and services, and consumers have come to expect a seamless experience across all channels. This challenges marketing organizations to balance the demands of consumers and the most effective advertising techniques with responsible, privacy-compliant methods of managing data internally and with advertising technology intermediaries.

In the United States, both state and federal legislation govern activities such as the collection and use of data by companies that engage in digital advertising like us. Also, because our platform reaches users throughout the world, some of our activities may also be subject to foreign legislation. As we continue to expand internationally, we will be subject to additional legislation and regulation, and these laws may affect how we conduct business.

The U.S. Congress and state legislatures, along with federal regulatory authorities, have increased their attention on matters concerning the collection and use of consumer data, including relating to internet-based advertising. Data privacy legislation has been introduced in the U.S. Congress, and several states, including California, Virginia, Colorado and Utah, have enacted comprehensive privacy legislation granting rights to consumers to enable increased control over the use of their data. These laws include a consumer's ability to restrict use of data for behavioral or cross-context advertising purposes. Additional state legislatures have proposed, a variety of types of data privacy legislation. Many non-U.S. jurisdictions have also enacted or are developing laws and regulations governing the collection and use of personal data.

Additionally, U.S. and foreign governments have enacted or are considering enacting legislation that could significantly restrict our ability to collect, augment, analyze, use and share data collected through cookies and similar technologies, such as by regulating the level of consumer notice and consent required before a company can employ cookies or other electronic tools to track people online. In the United States, the FTC has commenced the examination of privacy issues that arise when marketers track consumers across multiple devices, otherwise known as cross-device tracking. In addition to the requirements relating to cookies or similar technologies described in the section "*Risk Factors—Risks Relating to Legal or Regulatory Constraints—We are subject to laws and regulations related to data privacy, data protection, and information security, and consumer protection across different markets where we conduct our business, including in the United States, the EEA and the United Kingdom and industry requirements and such laws, regulations, and industry requirements are constantly evolving and changing. Our actual or perceived failure to comply with such laws and regulations could have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition*", in the European Union and the United Kingdom, informed consent is required for the placement of a cookie or similar technologies on a user's device and for direct electronic marketing. The GDPR also imposes conditions on obtaining valid consent, such as a prohibition on pre-checked consents and a requirement to ensure separate consents are sought for each type of cookie or similar technology. Detailed guidance relating to these requirements has been published by the European Data Protection Board (and its predecessor, the Article 29 Working Party) as well as various supervisory authorities in the European Union and the United Kingdom. While not legally binding, such guidance reflects the position and understanding of the regulators and their approach to enforcement. Supervisory authorities in the European Union and the United Kingdom are increasingly focusing on the AdTech industry and its compliance with these requirements. Several high-profile investigations are currently underway, and a number of fines have been issued against businesses for their failure to, amongst other things, properly notify individuals of how their data is being used and to collect informed consent.

------

Additionally, our compliance with our privacy policy and our general consumer data privacy and security practices are subject to review by regulatory bodies such as the FTC, which may bring enforcement actions to challenge allegedly unfair and deceptive trade practices, including the violation of privacy policies and representations or material omissions therein.

Certain State Attorneys General in the United States may also bring enforcement actions based on comparable state laws or federal laws that permit state-level enforcement. In California, for example, the Attorney General may bring enforcement actions for violations of the CCPA, as modified by the Attorney General's enforcement guidelines. When we receive bid requests that include an opt-out signal, we do not sell personal information, as defined by the CCPA. We have also adopted the Digital Advertising Alliance ("DAA") CCPA Compliance Framework, which includes a technical specification to identify consumer signals to opt-out of sale of their data and have signed the IAB Limited Service Provider Agreement that imposes service provider obligations for certain opted-out bid requests. These IAB frameworks are designed to facilitate compliance with the CCPA although the California Attorney General's office has not yet approved such frameworks. The CCPA sets forth high potential liabilities for data privacy violations on a per-incident basis, and the industry faces an uncertain compliance burden as our partners and publishers work to become compliant with the law. Also, the CPRA, once it takes effect in January 2023, will impose additional data protection obligations on companies doing business in California, including additional consumer rights processes and opt-outs for certain uses of sensitive data and sharing of personal data.

Since California enacted the CCPA and CPRA), Virginia enacted the Virginia Privacy Act (effective January 1, 2023), Colorado enacted the Colorado Privacy Act (effective July 1, 2023) and Utah enacted the Utah Consumer Privacy Act (effective December 31, 2023). We expect the trend of enacting new and comprehensive privacy legislation to continue not only in the US but also around the globe.

To protect against unlawful content (advertiser and publisher), we include restrictions on content in our terms and conditions. We also utilize various technologies and processes to review publisher properties and use third party software to screen impressions we acquire through advertising exchanges.

#### 5.A. OPERATING RESULTS

#### Overview
We are a global company offering an end-to-end software platform that enables advertisers to reach relevant audiences and publishers to maximize yield on their digital advertising inventory. We use our proprietary technology to deliver impactful brand stories to target audiences through digital ad technology and advanced audience data. Our omni-channel capabilities deliver global advertising campaigns across all formats and channels, with an expertise in Video and CTV.

We believe there is a significant market opportunity within the approximately $567 billion global digital advertising market that is expected to grow at a CAGR of approximately 10% through 2026, according to eMarketer. Digital publishers rely on advertising to support their businesses and brands, and advertisers use this medium to capture uniquely targeted and viewable impressions. We believe the digital advertising market remains fragmented and that our full-service end-to-end software platform and vast expertise within Video and CTV puts us in a strong position to continue to increase our market share from traditional ad sales channels.

We believe that we are positioned to benefit from several trends in the evolving advertising ecosystem, including the proliferation of digital media consumption, adoption of programmatic advertising, a growing focus on premium formats such as Video and CTV, and the increasing sophistication of the overall digital landscape. We address the broad and evolving digital advertising market through our three core offerings, including proprietary DSP solutions that advertisers leverage to manage digital advertising campaigns, a proprietary SSP solution that publishers leverage to optimally monetize digital inventory and a proprietary DMP solution which is integrated with both our DSP and SSP solutions. Our versatile DMP solution benefits from vast amounts of data and provides optimal campaign recommendations for audience sets by employing advanced machine learning algorithms and now includes the Linear TV Planning and Cross-Platform tools. The contextualization of the data synthesized by our DMP solution provides advertisers with a comprehensive, personalized view of audiences, enabling more effective targeting across formats and devices and optimizes the monetization of publisher inventory. These three solutions are enhanced by our Brand Intelligence offering helping our customers gain a comprehensive view of their audiences. By combining these proprietary solutions as well as integrations with industry-leading partners, we provide an end-to-end software platform that is dynamic and flexible to our customers' needs, which enables us to address more digital ad spend.

------

Our customers are comprised of both ad buyers, including brands and agencies, and digital publishers. Our platform included a diversified customer base of approximately 1,250 active customers and approximately 1,530 active publishers as of December 31, 2022 with approximately 20 billion unique users for the month ended December 31, 2022, and serves advertisements in 246 countries. These figures include combined results from both Tremor International and Amobee.

We generate revenue through platform fees that are tailored to fit the customer's specific utilization of our solutions and include (i) a percentage of spend, (ii) flat fees and (iii) fixed CPM.

Recently, the economic health of advertisers has been impacted by impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic beginning in 2020 and residual impacts that continued through 2022, as well as current inflation issues and the resulting economic uncertainty in the United States and global economy which continued through 2022. Many advertisers also suffered, and continue to do so, as a result of supply chain constraints which are materially impacting certain verticals. Many marketing budgets, particularly those hardest hit by the pandemic and economic uncertainty such as travel, retail and hospitality, and those impacted by supply chain constraints such as automotive, decreased or paused their advertising spending as a response to the economic uncertainty, decline in business activity and other COVID-19 related impacts which have not fully recovered, and may continue to have, a negative impact on our revenue and results of operations. The advertising industry was significantly impacted in 2022 by supply chain constraints, inflation, the economic uncertainty in the global economy and the residual impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, including in the United States (where the majority of our revenue is generated). As a result of all of these contributing factors, advertising demand on our platform decreased significantly in the second half of 2022, as economic activity across most markets contracted and marketing budgets were reduced. Despite recovery as parts of the economy reopened at the end of the second quarter of 2020 into 2021, the residual impacts of the COVID-19 Pandemic, increasing inflation concerns and economic uncertainty around the globe has continued to limit advertising spending over this period, other industries drove growth in advertising spending, particularly in Video (including CTV).

On August 18, 2022, the Company completed a $25 million investment in VIDAA, a smart TV operating system, streaming platform, and subsidiary of Hisense. Through its investment, the Company received a minority equity stake in VIDAA, a multi-year extension to exclusively share VIDAA's global ACR data for targeting and measurement across the Company's end-to-end platform, and ad monetization exclusivity on media in the U.S., UK, Canada, and Australia. On September 12, 2022, the Company completed its acquisition of Amobee, a leading global advertising platform that optimizes outcomes for advertisers and media companies and improves cross channel performance across linear, Connected TV, and digital media, for $211.8 million, as adjusted. The acquisition of Amobee drives added scale and advertiser demand to the Company's platform, while also adding a number of brand and agency customers that were previously either not leveraging the Company's technology products or were leveraging them very minimally. The acquisition also enhances Tremor International's enterprise self-service DSP capabilities, performance media buying capabilities, and data-driven planning capabilities, highlighted by the creation of cross-planning capabilities for advertisers and broadcasters across linear TV and CTV simultaneously. The acquisition consideration of $211.8 million, as adjusted, was funded through a combination of existing cash resources, and approximately $100 million from a new $180 million secured credit facility. The credit facility consisted of a $90 million secured Term Loan A drawn at closing, and a $90 million Revolving Credit Facility, of which $10 million was drawn at closing. The remaining $80 million capacity on the Revolving Credit Facility provides the Company with additional liquidity, which may be utilized for a variety of investments including future strategic investments and initiatives alongside existing surplus cash resources.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Our Video revenue grew from $242.7 million in the year ended December 31, 2021 to $243.3 million in the year ended December 31, 2022. These results include contributions from Amobee for the period from when we closed the acquisition on September 12, 2022 through December 31, 2022. Video revenue for Tremor International as a standalone company was impacted by challenging macroeconomic conditions experienced across several industries, including rising interest rates, supply chain constraints, rising inflation, geopolitical uncertainty, and recession concerns, which pressured the advertising demand environment. This pressure, however, was partially offset by Video revenue contributed by Amobee for the period from when we closed the acquisition through the end of 2022. Our Video revenue growth included the rapid growth of CTV revenue over the same period, which grew from $80.3 million in the year ended December 31, 2021 to $97.2 million in the year ended December 31, 2022. CTV revenue for Tremor as a standalone company, however, was more resilient during 2022 as advertisers continued to advertise using CTV to increase brand awareness through our scaled end-to-end suite of technology solutions and expertise within the activity despite challenging market conditions. Amobee also contributed positive CTV revenue from when we closed the acquisition through the end of 2022, furthering the Company's year-over-year growth within the activity. The growth of Video (including CTV) revenue contributed to 3% growth in Programmatic revenue for the year ended December 31, 2022 from the year ended December 31, 2021. The programmatic growth figure includes results from Amobee for the period from when the acquisition closed on September 12, 2022 through December 31, 2022.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Our total comprehensive income for the twelve months ended December 31, 2022, decreased by $54.4 million from the equivalent figure for the twelve months ended December 31, 2021, and represented a 77.0% year-over-year decrease as compared to our total comprehensive income for the twelve months ended December 31, 2021. We generated $16.2 million and $70.6 million in total comprehensive income for the years ended December 31, 2022, and 2021, respectively. Our Adjusted EBITDA for the twelve months ended December 31, 2022, decreased by $16.3 million from the equivalent figure for the twelve months ended December 31, 2021 and represented a 10.1% year-over-year decrease. Additionally, we generated $144.9 million and $161.2 million in Adjusted EBITDA for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The Company had a net cash position of $115.5 million as of December 31, 2022.

#### Our Business Model
Tremor International is a collection of brands uniting creativity, data and technology across the open internet. Our end-to-end, video-first platform facilitates and optimizes engaging advertising campaigns for brands, media groups and content creators worldwide—enabling powerful partnerships and delivering meaningful results. A leader in CTV and Video, Tremor International's footprint is expanding across some of the industry's fastest-growing activities, driven by a global team of seasoned technologists and digital natives.

Our end-to-end platform is a comprehensive software suite that supports a wide range of media types (e.g., Video, display, etc.) and devices (e.g., mobile, CTVs, streaming devices, desktop, etc.), creating an efficient marketplace where advertisers can purchase high quality advertising inventory from publishers at scale. Our solutions offer many advantages, including an advanced real-time bidding auction optimization engine, a quality and global marketplace, and flexibility to enact concurrent campaign strategies that drives strong returns for investments in digital ad real estate.

Key Components of our platform include:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *Demand Side Platform –* We offer self-service DSP solutions for advertisers and their
 agencies to efficiently and intuitively manage omni-channel campaigns. We also offer full-service options to agencies in addition to our
 self-service DSP solutions. Our DSP solutions provide access to wide reaching and high-quality inventory, audience targeting, and advanced
 reporting to optimize advertising campaigns, improve ROI, and gain deep insights and analytics into brand engagement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *Data Management Platform* –
 We offer a fully integrated DMP solution that sits at the center of our platform that unlocks the power of data flowing
 through our DSP and SSP solutions and includes Linear TV and Cross-Planning tools. Our DMP enables advertisers and publishers to use data
 from various sources in order to optimize results of their advertising campaigns. Our DMP provides insights and recommendations pertaining
 to geographic, behavioral and demographic data, among others in a unified solution. We believe an integrated DMP is a key component to
 the marketplace because it enables advertisers and publishers to use and activate data to target audiences with more accuracy across a
 number of different channels.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *Supply Side Platform* – We offer a self-service SSP solution for digital publishers
 to sell their online ad placements via a real-time bidding auction across all screens including
 mobile, CTVs, streaming devices and desktops. Our SSP provides access to significant amounts of data, unique demand and a comprehensive
 product suite to drive more effective inventory management and revenue optimization.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *Brand Intelligence* –
 We collect, synthesize and analyze the data sets across our platform through extensive artificial intelligence technologies
 and advanced machine learning capabilities. These recommendations ultimately provide key insights into valuable ad impressions and forecasts
 for auction behavior. We believe these technologies drive optimal results for our advertisers and publishers.

#### Key Factors Affecting Our Results of Operations
We believe our results of operations is influenced by several factors, including the following:

***Attract, Retain and Grow our Customer Base***: A large part of our growth in recent years has been driven by expanding the usage of our platform by our existing advertisers and publishers as well as by adding new advertisers and publishers. As a result, our revenue growth depends upon our ability to retain our existing advertisers and publishers and to capture a larger amount of their advertising spend through our platform.

For the year ended December 31, 2022, we achieved gross profit per active customer (calculated as our gross profit for the period divided by our active customers for the period) of $251,693 excluding results from Amobee ($199,200 including results from Amobee) and Contribution ex-TAC per active customer (calculated as our Contribution ex-TAC for the period divided by our active customers for the period) of $308,062 excluding results from Amobee ($247,780 including results from Amobee). In comparison, for the year ended December 31, 2021, we achieved gross profit per active customer of $332,054 and Contribution ex-TAC per active customer of $395,254. During the year ended December 31, 2022, gross profit per active customer and Contribution ex-TAC per active customer decreased on an organic basis (excluding Amobee), largely due to challenging macroeconomic conditions which adversely impacted the advertising demand environment and advertising budgets within the industry.

We continued to add enhanced capabilities to our already scaled and widely adopted technology ecosystem to encourage existing advertisers and publishers to increase their usage of our platform. As a result of this and other similar engagement initiatives, we achieved a Contribution ex-TAC retention rate of 80% for the year ended December 31, 2022. While our retention rate is solid, the retention rate was significantly impacted by challenging macroeconomic conditions that created uncertainty, and reduced spend, within the advertising demand environment. These conditions were observed within the industry throughout 2022. However, over time, and in more normalized market conditions, we expect customers to typically increase their level of spend, and adoption of additional products, across our end-to-end technology platform due to the convenience of transacting with one vendor that can service them in multiple ways, the inconvenience associated with switching vendors and learning a new technology, as well as the data, return on ad spend, and cost benefits provided by our suite of technology solutions.

------

***Investment in Growth***: We believe that the advertising market is in the early stages of a secular shift towards digital video advertising. We have been specializing in digital video advertising, which collectively accounts for approximately 90% of our Programmatic revenue for the year ended December 31, 2022. The figure for the year ended December 31, 2022, includes contributions from Amobee for the period from when we closed the acquisition on September 12, 2022 through December 31, 2022. We plan to invest in long-term growth by focusing on key drivers of digital advertising growth: Video and CTV. We anticipate that our operating expenses will increase in the foreseeable future as we invest in platform operations and technology and development to enhance our product capabilities including acquisitions (such as Amobee and SpearAd), deployment of more self-service capabilities both to our advertisers and publishers, expediting and expanding data relationships and technology (such as our partnership with VIDAA, including the additional equity investment), and adding more ad formats to our platform (e.g., audio, display, etc.). We believe that these investments will contribute to our long-term growth, although it is uncertain whether they may impact our profitability in the near-term.

***Growth of the Digital Advertising Market and Macroeconomics Factors***: We expect to continue to benefit from overall adoption of digital video advertising by both advertisers and publishers. Any material change in the growth rate of digital video advertising or the rate of adoption could affect our performance. Recent trends have indicated that advertising spend is closely tied to advertisers' financial performance and economic conditions, either generally or in one or more of the industries in which our advertisers operate or our publishers focus. An economic downturn could adversely impact the digital advertising market and our operating results. For example, the challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic on the global economy increased significantly throughout 2020 and 2021. In response to COVID-19, national and local governments around the world instituted certain measures, including travel bans, prohibitions on group events and gatherings, shutdowns of certain businesses, curfews, shelter-in-place orders and recommendations to practice social distancing. Certain marketers in industries such as travel and tourism, hospitality and automotive, decreased or paused their advertising spend as a response to the economic uncertainty.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; As the overall economic environment improved during the second half of 2021, but experienced challenges throughout 2022, our Video revenue and CTV revenue grew from $242.7 million and $80.3 million, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2021, to $243.3 million and $97.2 million, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2022. These results include contributions from Amobee for the period from when the acquisition closed on September 12, 2022 through December 31, 2022. Video revenue for Tremor International as a standalone company was impacted by challenging macroeconomic conditions experienced across several industries, including rising interest rates, supply chain constraints, rising inflation, geopolitical uncertainty, and recession concerns, which pressured the advertising demand environment. This pressure, however, was offset by Video revenue contributed by Amobee for the period from when we closed the acquisition through the end of 2022. CTV revenue for Tremor as a standalone company, however, was more resilient during 2022 as advertisers continued to advertise using CTV to increase brand awareness through our scaled end-to-end suite of technology solutions and expertise within the activity, despite challenging market conditions. Amobee also contributed positive CTV revenue from when we closed the acquisition through the end of 2022, furthering the Company's year-over-year growth within the activity. This growth of Video (including CTV) contributed to 3% growth in Programmatic revenue for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to the year ended December 31, 2021. This programmatic growth figure includes results from Amobee for the period from when the acquisition closed on September 12, 2022 through December 31, 2022.

During 2022, the Company, its customers, and its partners, continued to face persistent macroeconomic challenges associated with several factors including: the COVID-19 pandemic, and residual impacts of efforts to curtail its spread and reduce further economic damage sustained; rising interest rates; rising inflation; global supply chain constraints; changes in foreign currency exchange rates; recession concerns; and geopolitical uncertainty, the combination of which drove advertisers across several industries to reduce, or delay deployment of, budgets and advertising spend, see "*Risk Factors—Our revenue and results of operations are highly dependent on the overall demand for advertising. Factors that affect the amount of advertising spending, such as economic downturns, inflation, supply constraints and the COVID-19 pandemic, can make it difficult to predict our revenue and could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition*."

***Seasonality***: In the advertising industry, companies commonly experience seasonal fluctuations in revenue. For example, many marketers allocate the largest portion of their budgets to the fourth quarter of the calendar year in order to coincide with increased holiday purchasing. Historically, the fourth quarter of the year has reflected our highest level of advertising activity for the year. We generally expect the subsequent first quarter to reflect lower activity levels. In addition, historical seasonality may not be predictive of future results given the potential for changes in advertising buying patterns and consumer activity due to economic uncertainty, rising inflation, supply chain constrains and residual impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. Nevertheless, when macro-economic conditions improve and as countries continue to recover from the COVID-19 pandemic, we expect our revenue to continue to fluctuate based on seasonal factors that affect the advertising industry as a whole.

#### Components of Our Results of Operations

**In this section, we use the following terms:

"*Programmatic*" means our end-to-end platform of programmatic advertising, which uses software and algorithms to match buyers and sellers of digital advertising in a technology-driven marketplace; transactions in our Programmatic activities are executed in milliseconds and beginning in 2020, human intervention or discretion for execution has significantly decreased.

"*Performance*" means our non-core performance activities consisting primarily of mobile-based solutions that help brands reach their users; revenue generated in the Performance activities is contingent on the occurrence of performance-based metrics, such as app downloads and installations.**

*Revenue*. Our revenue is generated from transactions where we provide a platform for the purchase and sale of digital advertising inventory. Our end-to-end platform is a comprehensive software suite that supports a wide range of media types (e.g., Video, display, etc.) across various devices (e.g., mobile, CTVs, streaming devices, desktop, etc.), creating an efficient marketplace where advertisers (buyers) are able to purchase high quality advertising inventory from publishers (sellers) at scale.

------

We generate revenue through fees that we charge, based on customer type, to utilize our solutions and services and upon usage and delivery.

Often, advertisers use our DSP solution in connection with access to our DMP for optimizing media buys from our SSP solution.

*Cost of revenues (exclusive of depreciation and amortization)*. Cost of revenues (exclusive of depreciation and amortization) primarily consists of hosting fees and data costs for both Programmatic and Performance activities, as well as media costs for Performance activities that are directly attributable to revenue generated by the Company and generally based on the revenue share arrangements with audience and content partners.

*Research and development expenses*. Research and development expenses consist primarily of compensation and related costs for personnel responsible for the research and development of new and existing products and services. Where required, development expenditures are capitalized in accordance with the Company's standard internal capitalized development policy in accordance with International Accounting Standard ("IAS") 38. All research costs are expensed when incurred.

*Selling and marketing expenses*. Selling and marketing expenses primarily consist of compensation and related costs for personnel engaged in customer service, sales and sales support functions, as well as advertising and promotional expenditures.

*General and administrative expenses*. General and administrative expenses primarily consist of compensation and related costs for personnel and include costs related to the Company's facilities, finance, human resources, information technology, legal organizations and fees for professional services. Professional services are principally comprised of external legal, information technology consulting and outsourcing services that are not directly related to other operational expenses.

*Depreciation and amortization*. Depreciation and amortization primarily consist of depreciation of fixed assets and amortization of intangible assets, as well as depreciation and amortization of right of use assets.

*Financing income*. Financing income primarily consists of foreign currency gains and interest income.

*Financing expense*. Financing expense primarily includes exchange rate differences, interest and bank fees and other expenses.

*Other income (expense)*. Other income (expense) includes gain on sale of business unit and income from expired financial liability offset by a disposal of intangible assets.

Revenue decreased by $6.7 million, or 2.0%, to $335.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2022, from $341.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. Excluding results from Amobee, the $43.5 million decrease in annual revenue attributable to Tremor International as a standalone company was driven primarily by challenging macroeconomic conditions which negatively impacted the advertising demand environment throughout 2022 including widespread global supply chain constraints, rising interest rates, rising inflation, geopolitical uncertainty, and recession concerns. This decrease however was offset by $36.8 million in revenue contribution from Amobee for the period from when the acquisition closed on September 12, 2022 through December 31, 2022.

Excluding cost of revenues associated with Amobee (exclusive of depreciation and amortization), the $15.6 million decrease in cost of revenues (exclusive of depreciation and amortization) associated with Tremor International as a standalone company was primarily driven by a decrease in Performance revenue and corresponding costs, as several direct-to-consumer brand customers experienced significant pressure on advertising budgets due to rising inflation during 2022. This decrease however was offset by $4.7 million in cost of revenues (excluding depreciation and amortization) associated with Amobee for the period from when the acquisition closed on September 12, 2022 through December 31, 2022.

Research and development expenses increased by $15.2 million, or 82.7%, to $33.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 from $18.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. Excluding research and development expenses associated with Amobee, the $7.2 million increase in research and development costs associated with Tremor International as a standalone company was driven by increased investment in technology and product innovation which drove a $1.8 million increase in salary and related expenses as a result of increased headcount, a $0.9 million increase in expenses related to research and development and engineering tools and services and a $4.5 million increase in share-based compensation expense. Amobee added $8.0 million in research and development expenses for the period from when the acquisition closed on September 12, 2022, through December 31, 2022, primarily as a result of salary and related expenses.

Selling and marketing expenses increased by $15.3 million or 20.6% to $90.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 from $74.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. Excluding selling and marketing expenses associated with Amobee, the $0.4 million decrease in selling and marketing expenses for Tremor International as a standalone company was primarily driven by a $6.1 million decrease in wages and salaries mainly connected to lower revenue performance, which was largely offset by a $3.5 million increase in share-based compensation expense and a $2.2 million increase in marketing, advertising, sales, and client-related expenses due to increased in-person sales and marketing events taking place, as certain COVID-19 restrictions began to abate in 2022. Amobee added $15.7 million in selling and marketing expenses for the period from when the acquisition closed on September 12, 2022, through December 31, 2022, which was driven primarily by salary and related expenses.

General and administrative expenses increased by $4.5 million, or 7.1%, to $68.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 from $63.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. Excluding general and administrative expenses associated with Amobee, the $1.3 million decrease in general and administrative expenses for Tremor International as a standalone company was driven primarily by an approximately $3.1 million decrease in allowance for doubtful debts mainly attributable to past debt collection compared to $5 million expenses in prior year, a $1.4 million decrease in rent expense, and a $3.0 million decrease in special bonuses awarded as a result of the successful completion of the Company's initial public offering on Nasdaq in 2021. These decreases were offset mainly by a $5.1 million increase in professional service fees and expenses largely associated with increased legal, director's insurance and audit fees due to public company reporting requirements in the United States, as well as a $5.8 million increase in acquisition costs, including investment in Amobee and a $0.4 million increase in share- based compensation. Amobee added $5.8 million in general and administrative expenses for the period from when the acquisition closed on September 12, 2022 through December 31, 2022, which was largely driven by salaries and related expenses.

Tremor International as a standalone company experienced a $1.1 million increase in depreciation and amortization on servers and internally developed intangible assets as well as a $0.6 million increase in depreciation of the lease assets of data centers and offices attributable to the optimization of assets, which was offset by an $11.2 million amortization of acquired intangible assets from a previous acquisition that were fully amortized. Amobee added $11.9 million in depreciation and amortization expenses for the period from when the acquisition closed on September 12, 2022 through December 31, 2022, mainly attributable to the amortization of intellectual property and depreciation of servers and lease assets of data centers and offices.

Other income, net, increased by $3.6 million, or 375.9%, to $4.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 from $1.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. This increase was largely attributable to a $5.1 million expired of financial liability, which was offset by a $1.0 million decrease in other income as a result of revenue and profit sharing associated with the sale of certain non-core business units, as well as a $0.5 million disposal of certain intangible assets.

Net financial expenses increased by $0.1 million, or 6.4%, to $2.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 from $2.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. This increase was primarily driven by a $0.6 million increase in currency exchange rate fluctuations and a $0.1 million increase in finance expenses related to lease liabilities but was offset by a $0.6 million decrease in interest expenses, net, as interest income increased on bank deposits while loan expenses were incurred as a result of the acquisition of Amobee during 2022.

The tax expenses for the year ended December 31, 2022 was primarily due to non-deductible share-based compensation and capitalization for tax purposes of research and experimental expenditures, for which deferred taxes were not recognized, partially offset by research and development tax credits, and utilization of carry forward losses for which no deferred tax assets had been recognized in the previous years.

This decrease was primarily attributable to a $6.7 million decrease in revenue, a $15.2 million increase in research and development expenses as a result of increased investment in technology and product innovation as well as the acquisition of Amobee, a $15.3 million increase in selling and marketing expenses largely attributable to the acquisition of Amobee, a $4.5 million increase in general and administrative expenses mainly associated with the acquisition of Amobee, a $2.4 million increase in depreciation and amortization primarily due to the acquisition of Amobee, and a $0.1 million increase in financial expenses, net. The decrease was offset by $10.9 million lower cost of revenues (exclusive of depreciation and amortization) primarily associated with lower performance revenue generated, a $3.6 million increase in other income, net, tying largely to an expiration of financial liability and a $20.6 million decrease in tax benefits.

This decrease was primarily attributable to a $50.5 million reduction in annual profits as well as $3.9 million associated with fluctuations in foreign currency translation differences for foreign operations stemming mainly from the translation of British pound sterling and Japanese yen to U.S. dollars.

------

Net profit margin decreased to 4.8% for the year ended December 31, 2022 from a net profit margin of 20.6% for the year ended December 31, 2021. This decrease was primarily driven by a research and development expense increase of 82.7%, selling and marketing expense increase of 20.6% and increase in tax expenses of 2176.8%.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Contribution ex-TAC is defined as our gross profit *plus* depreciation and amortization attributable to cost of revenues and cost of revenues (exclusive of depreciation and amortization) *minus* both the Programmatic media cost (as defined below) and the Performance media cost (as defined below) (collectively, "traffic acquisition costs" or "TAC"), since we arrange for the transfer of such costs from the supplier to the customer through the use of our platform and do not control such features prior to transfer to the customer.

Contribution ex-TAC is a supplemental measure of our financial performance that is not required by, or presented in accordance with, IFRS. Contribution ex-TAC should not be considered as an alternative to gross profit as a measure of financial performance. Contribution ex-TAC is a non-IFRS financial measure and should not be viewed in isolation. We include Contribution ex-TAC in this Annual Report because we believe it is a useful measure in assessing the performance of Tremor International because it facilitates a consistent comparison against our core business without considering the impact of traffic acquisition costs related to revenue reported on a gross basis.

We define Adjusted EBITDA as total comprehensive income for the period adjusted for foreign currency translation differences for foreign operations, financing expenses, net, tax benefit, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, restructuring, acquisition and IPO-related costs and other income, net.

Adjusted EBITDA is included in this Annual Report because it is a key metric used by management and our board of directors to assess our financial performance. Adjusted EBITDA is frequently used by analysts, investors and other interested parties to evaluate companies in our industry. Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA is an appropriate measure of operating performance because it eliminates the impact of expenses that do not relate directly to the performance of the underlying business.

*Contribution ex-TAC*

Our contribution ex-TAC increased by 2.6% from $302.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2021 to $309.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. The increase was mainly attributable to contribution from the acquisition of Amobee for the period from when we closed the acquisition on September 12, 2022 through December 31, 2022, which helped to offset lower Contribution ex-TAC from Tremor International as a standalone Company, driven by challenging macroeconomic conditions which significantly pressured advertising budgets during 2022.

*Adjusted EBITDA*

Our Adjusted EBITDA decreased by $16.3 million from $161.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2021 to $144.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. The decrease was driven primarily by challenging macroeconomic conditions which negatively impacted the advertising demand environment throughout 2022 including widespread global supply chain constraints, rising interest rates, rising inflation, geopolitical uncertainty, and a minor Amobee Adjusted EBITDA contribution of $3.8 million.

#### Credit agreement
In September 2022, Unruly Group US Holding Inc. entered into a $90 million senior secured term loan facility (the Term Loan Facility) and a $90 million senior secured revolving credit facility with a $15 million letter of credit sub-facility (the Revolving Credit Facility and, together with the Term Loan Facility, collectively, the Credit Facilities). The Company used the net proceeds of the Term Loan Facility and $10 million of net proceeds of the Revolving Credit Facility to fund a portion of the cash consideration required to close its acquisition of Amobee Inc. The Company may use borrowings made from time to time under the Revolving Credit Facility for general corporate purposes or other purposes not prohibited under the Credit Facilities. Each of the Credit Facilities matures on September 15, 2025 and bears interest, at the Company's discretion, at a base rate plus a margin of 0.25% to 1.00% per annum or SOFR rate plus a spread of 1.25% to 2.00% per annum plus a credit spread adjustment of 0.10% to 0.25% based on the interest period duration of the applicable borrowing, in each case with such margin being determined by the Company's consolidated total net leverage ratio. The Revolving Credit Facility may be borrowed, repaid, and re-borrowed until its maturity. The Company may prepay the Credit Facilities at its discretion without premium or penalty. The Credit Facilities are each due and payable in full on the respective maturity date of such Credit Facility.

The Company is also obligated to pay a commitment fee on the undrawn amounts of the Revolving Credit Facility at an annual rate ranging from 0.20% to 0.35%, determined by the Company's total net leverage ratio. The Credit Facilities require compliance with various financial and non-financial covenants, including affirmative and negative covenants. The financial covenants require that the total net leverage ratio not exceed 3x and the interest coverage ratio not be less than 4x, in each case measured as of the end of each fiscal quarter. As of December 31, 2022, the Company was in compliance with all related covenants. The letter of credit sub-facility includes a fee at a rate per annum equal to the applicable margin for SOFR Loans then in effect on the daily maximum amount then available to be drawn as well as a fronting fee equal to 0.125% per annum along with other standard fees.

Unruly Group US Holding Inc.'s obligations under the Credit Facilities are (i) jointly and severally guaranteed by Tremor International Ltd. and certain of Tremor International Ltd.'s direct and indirect, existing and future wholly owned restricted subsidiaries, subject to certain exceptions and (ii) secured on a first-lien basis by substantially all of the tangible and intangible assets of Unruly Group US Holding Inc. and the guarantors of the Credit Facilities, subject to certain permitted liens and other agreed upon exceptions.

#### Capital Expenditures
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Our capital expenditures consist primarily of purchases of hardware and software. Our capital expenditures during the year ended December 31, 2022 were $17.1 million, a $10.1 million increase compared to the year ended December 31, 2021. We will continue to make capital expenditures to meet the expected growth of our business.

#### Contractual Obligations
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; As of December 31, 2022, and December 31, 2021, the Group's contractual obligation of financial liability is in respect of leases, trade, and other payables in the amount of USD 361,820 thousand and USD 193,213 thousand, respectively. The contractual maturity of the financial liability that is less than one year is in the amount of USD 240,590 thousand and USD 185,337 thousand for December 31, 2022, and December 31, 2021, respectively.

#### 5.C. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT, PATENTS AND LICENSES
Our business model enables us to invest into our research and development efforts, which have helped grow our business. Our platform is extremely efficient at managing large amounts of complex data and is leveraged by both our advertisers and publishers in real time. We are committed to innovative technologies and rapid introduction of enhanced functionalities to support the dynamic needs of our advertisers and publishers. We therefore expect technology and development expense to increase as we continue to invest in our platform to support increased volume of advertising spend and our international expansion.

Our technology and development team is based in the United States and Israel and is comprised of 108 employees.

Research and development expenses were $33.7 million, $18.4 million and $13.3 million in 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and accounted for 14.7%, 9.4%, and 8.4% of our operating expenses in 2022, 2021 and 2020 respectively.

Our success depends, in part, on our ability to protect the proprietary methods and technologies that we develop or otherwise acquire. We rely on copyright, trade secret laws, confidentiality procedures and contractual provisions to protect our proprietary methods and technologies and own more than 50 patents. We rely upon common law protection for certain marks, such as "Tremor" and "Tremor Video."

We generally enter into confidentiality and/or license agreements with our employees, consultants, vendors and advertisers, and we generally limit access to, and distribution of, our proprietary information. We intend to pursue additional intellectual property protection to the extent we believe it would be beneficial and cost effective.

#### 5.D. TREND INFORMATION
*Advertising Ecosystem.* We believe that we are positioned to benefit from several trends in the evolving advertising ecosystem, including the proliferation of digital media consumption, adoption of programmatic advertising, a growing focus on premium formats such as Video and CTV, and the increasing sophistication of the overall digital landscape. We address the broad and evolving digital advertising market through our three core offerings, including a proprietary DSP solution that advertisers leverage to manage digital advertising campaigns, a proprietary SSP solution that publishers leverage to optimally monetize digital inventory and a proprietary DMP solution which is integrated with both our DSP and SSP solutions. Our versatile DMP solution benefits from vast amounts of data and provides optimal campaign recommendations for audience sets by employing advanced machine learning algorithms. The contextualization of the data synthesized by our DMP solution provides advertisers with a comprehensive, personalized view of audiences, enabling more effective targeting across formats and devices and optimizes the monetization of publisher inventory. By combining these three proprietary solutions as well as integrations with industry leading partners, we provide an end-to-end software platform that is dynamic and flexible to our customers' needs, which enables us to address more digital ad spend.

During 2022, the Company, its customers, and its partners, continued to face persistent macroeconomic challenges associated with several factors including: the COVID-19 pandemic, and residual impacts of efforts to curtail its spread and reduce further economic damage sustained; rising interest rates; rising inflation; global supply chain constraints; changes in foreign currency exchange rates; recession concerns; and geopolitical uncertainty, the combination of which drove advertisers across several industries to reduce, or delay deployment of, budgets and advertising spend. The Company believes the aforementioned factors will continue to impact the advertising demand environment and financial markets during 2023, and potentially beyond.

#### 5.E. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

#### Critical Accounting Policies, Judgments and Estimates
We prepare our audited consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB. In preparing our audited consolidated financial statements, we make assumptions, judgments and estimates that can have a significant impact on amounts reported in our audited consolidated financial statements. We base our assumptions, judgments and estimates on historical experience and various other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We regularly re-evaluate our assumptions, judgments and estimates. Our critical accounting estimates and judgments are described in Note 2 to our audited consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report.

An accounting policy is deemed to be critical if it requires an accounting estimate to be made on assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain at the time the estimate is made, if different estimates reasonably could have been used, or if changes in the estimate that are reasonably possible could materially impact the financial statements.

#### Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
A description of recently issued accounting pronouncements that may potentially impact our financial position, results of operations or cash flows is disclosed in Note 2 to our audited consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report.

#### Equity Incentive Plans

#### 2011 Equity Incentive Plan

The 2011 Plan is administered by our board of directors with the assistance of the compensation committee, and provides for the grant of options, restricted shares and restricted share units.

The 2011 Plan provides for granting awards under various tax regimes, including, without limitation, in compliance with Section 102 of the Israeli Income Tax Ordinance (New Version), 5721-1961 (the "Ordinance"). Section 102 of the Ordinance allows employees, directors and officers who are not controlling shareholders and are considered Israeli residents to receive favorable tax treatment for compensation in the form of shares, restricted share units or options, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Ordinance. Our non-employee service providers and controlling shareholders may only be granted awards under section 3(i) of the Ordinance, which does not provide for similar tax benefits.

#### 2017 Equity Incentive Plan
We maintain the 2017 Plan under which we may grant equity-based incentive awards to attract, motivate and retain the talent for which we compete.

The 2017 Plan is administered by our board of directors with the assistance of the compensation committee.

The 2017 Plan provides for granting awards under various tax regimes, including, without limitation, awards granted to our United States employees or service providers, including those who are deemed to be residents of the United States for tax purposes, Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code (the "IRC") and Section 409A of the IRC.

The 2017 Plan provides for the grant of stock options (including incentive stock options and nonqualified stock options), restricted shares, restricted share units, performance bonus awards, performance units and performance shares. Options granted under the 2017 Plan to our employees who are U.S. residents may qualify as "incentive stock options" within the meaning of Section 422 of the IRC, or may be non-qualified stock options.

As of December 31, 2022, a total of 4,771,576 options to purchase ordinary shares, with a weighted average exercise price of £6.04 ($7.31) per share and 7,033,992 RSUs and PSUs were outstanding under the 2011 and 2017 Plans.

As of December 31, 2022, 246,666 restricted share awards were outstanding. The restricted share awards were not issued as part of the Company's equity incentive plans.

#### 6.C. BOARD PRACTICES

#### Corporate Governance Practices; External Directors
As an Israeli company, we are subject to various corporate governance requirements under the Companies Law, including the requirement to appoint at least two external directors to the board of directors. However, pursuant to regulations promulgated under the Companies Law, companies with shares or ADSs traded on certain U.S. stock exchanges, including Nasdaq, may, subject to certain conditions, "opt out" from the Companies Law requirements to appoint external directors and related Companies Law rules concerning the composition of the audit committee and compensation committee of the board of directors (other than the gender diversification rule under the Companies Law, which requires the appointment of a director from the other gender if at the time a director is appointed all members of the board of directors are of the same gender).

In connection with the IPO, we elected to "opt out" from such requirements of the Companies Law effective upon the closing of the IPO in June 2021, and our three external directors, Neil Jones, Joanna Parnell and Lisa Klinger, became regular directors, except that their current term of office shall expire at the 2023 annual general meeting. Under these regulations, the exemptions from such Companies Law requirements will continue to be available to us so long as: (i) we do not have a "controlling shareholder" (as such term is defined under the Companies Law), (ii) our shares or ADSs are traded on certain U.S. stock exchanges, including Nasdaq, and (iii) we comply with the director independence requirements and the audit committee and compensation committee composition requirements under U.S. laws (including applicable rules of Nasdaq) applicable to U.S. domestic issuers.

We are a "foreign private issuer" (as such term is defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act). As a foreign private issuer, we are permitted to comply with Israeli corporate governance practices instead of the corporate governance rules of Nasdaq, provided that we disclose which requirements we are not following and the equivalent Israeli requirement.

------

We rely on this "foreign private issuer exemption" with respect to the quorum requirement for shareholder meetings. As permitted under the Companies Law, pursuant to our amended and restated articles of association, the quorum required for an ordinary meeting of shareholders consists of at least two shareholders present in person, by proxy or by other voting instrument in accordance with the Companies Law who hold at least 25% of the voting power of our shares (and if the meeting is adjourned for a lack of quorum, the quorum for such adjourned meeting will be, subject to certain exceptions, any number of shareholders), instead of 33<sup>1/3</sup>% of the issued share capital as required under the corporate governance rules of Nasdaq. We otherwise comply with the rules generally applicable to U.S. domestic companies listed on Nasdaq. We may, however, in the future decide to use the "foreign private issuer exemption" and opt out of some or all of the other corporate governance rules.

#### Board of Directors
Under the Companies Law and our amended and restated articles of association, our business and affairs are managed under the direction of our board of directors. Our board of directors may exercise all powers and may take all actions that are not specifically granted to our shareholders or to executive management. Our Chief Executive Officer (referred to as a "general manager" under the Companies Law) is responsible for our day-to-day management. Our Chief Executive Officer is appointed by, and serves at the discretion of, our board of directors, subject to the employment agreement that we have entered into with him. All other executive officers are appointed by the Chief Executive Officer, subject to applicable corporate approvals, and are subject to the terms of any applicable employment or consulting agreements that we may enter into with them.

Under our amended and restated articles of association, the number of directors on our board of directors will be no less than four and no more than nine directors. At each annual general meeting of our shareholders, the election or re-election of directors following the expiration of the term of office of the directors will be for a term of office that expires on next annual general meeting following such election or re-election.

Our directors are appointed by a simple majority vote of holders of our ordinary shares, participating and voting at an annual general meeting of our shareholders, provided that (i) in the event of a contested election, the method of calculation of the votes and the manner in which the resolutions will be presented to our shareholders at the general meeting shall be determined by our board of directors in its discretion, and (ii) in the event that our board of directors does not or is unable to make a determination on such matter, then the directors will be elected by a majority of the voting power represented at the general meeting in person or by proxy and voting on the election of directors provided that if the number of nominees so elected exceeds the number of directors that are proposed by the board of directors to be elected, then as among such elected nominees the election shall be by a plurality of the votes cast. Each director holds office until the annual general meeting of our shareholders for the year in which such director's term expires, unless the tenure of such director expires earlier pursuant to the Companies Law or unless such director is removed from office as described below.

Under our amended and restated articles of association, the approval of the holders of at least 65% of the total voting power of our shareholders is generally required to remove any of our directors from office or amend the provision requiring the approval of at least 65% of the total voting power of our shareholders to remove any of our directors from office. In addition, vacancies on our board of directors may only be filled by a vote of a simple majority of the directors then in office. A director so appointed will hold office until the next annual general meeting of our shareholders for the election of the class of directors in respect of which the vacancy was created, or in the case of a vacancy due to the number of directors being less than the maximum number of directors stated in our amended and restated articles of association, until the next annual general meeting of our shareholders for the election of the class of directors to which such director was assigned by our board of directors.

#### Chairperson of the Board
Our amended and restated articles of association provide that the chairperson of the board of directors is appointed by the members of the board of directors from among them. Under the Companies Law, the chief executive officer of a public company, or a relative of the chief executive officer, may not serve as the chairperson of the board of directors, and the chairperson of the board of directors, or a relative of the chairperson, may not be vested with authorities of the chief executive officer unless approved by a special majority of the company's shareholders. The shareholders' approval can be effective for a period of up to three years.

In addition, a person who is subordinated, directly or indirectly, to the chief executive officer may not serve as the chairperson of the board of directors, the chairperson of the board of directors may not be vested with authorities that are granted to persons who are subordinated to the chief executive officer and the chairperson of the board of directors may not serve in any other position in the company or in a controlled subsidiary, but may serve as a director or chairperson of a controlled subsidiary.

All members of our audit committee meet the requirements for financial literacy under the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and the corporate governance rules of Nasdaq.

Our board of directors has determined that each member of our audit committee is "independent" as such term is defined in Rule 10A-3(b)(1) under the Exchange Act, which is different from the general test for independence of board and committee members.

 independent auditor, and suggesting corrective measures to the board of directors;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• reviewing policies and procedures with respect to transactions between the Company and officers and directors (other than transactions
 related to the compensation or terms of service of officers and directors), or affiliates of officers or directors, or transactions that
 are not in the ordinary course of the Company's business and deciding whether to approve such acts and transactions if so required
 under the Companies Law; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• establishing procedures for the handling of employees' complaints as to the management of our business and the protection to
 be provided to such employees.

#### Compensation Committee

#### Companies Law Requirements

#### Compensation Policy under the Companies Law
In general, under the Companies Law, a public company must have a compensation policy approved by its board of directors after receiving and considering the recommendations of the compensation committee.

The compensation policy must be based on certain considerations, include certain provisions and reference certain matters as set forth in the Companies Law. The compensation policy must serve as the basis for decisions concerning the financial terms of employment or engagement of office holders, including exculpation, insurance, indemnification or any monetary payment or obligation of payment in respect of employment or engagement. The compensation policy must be determined and later reevaluated according to certain factors, including: the advancement of the company's objectives, business plan and long-term strategy; the creation of appropriate incentives for office holders, while considering, among other things, the company's risk management policy; the size and the nature of the company's operations; and with respect to variable compensation, the contribution of the office holder towards the achievement of the company's long-term goals and the maximization of its profits, all with a long-term objective and according to the position of the office holder. The compensation policy must furthermore consider the following additional factors:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the education, skills, experience, expertise and accomplishments of the relevant office holder;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the office holder's position and responsibilities;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• prior compensation agreements with the office holder;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the ratio between the cost of the terms of employment of an office holder and the cost of the employment of other employees of the
 company, including employees employed through contractors who provide services to the company, in particular the ratio between such cost
 to the average and median salary of such employees of the company, as well as the impact of disparities between them on the work relationships
 in the company;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• if the terms of employment include variable components — the possibility of reducing variable components at the discretion
 of the board of directors and the possibility of setting a limit on the value of non-cash variable equity-based components; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• if the terms of employment include severance compensation — the term of employment or office of the office holder, the terms
 of the office holder's compensation during such period, the company's performance during such period, the office holder's
 individual contribution to the achievement of the company goals and the maximization of its profits and the circumstances under which
 he or she is leaving the company.

------

The compensation policy must also include, among other things:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• with regards to variable components:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• with the exception of office holders who report to the chief executive officer, a means of determining the variable components on
 the basis of long-term performance and measurable criteria; provided that the company may determine that an immaterial part of the variable
 components of the compensation package of an office holder shall be awarded based on non-measurable criteria, if such amount is not higher
 than three months' salary per annum, taking into account such office holder's contribution to the company;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the ratio between variable and fixed components, as well as the limit of the values of variable components at the time of their payment,
 or in the case of equity-based compensation, at the time of grant;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a condition under which the office holder will return to the company, according to conditions to be set forth in the compensation
 policy, any amounts paid as part of the office holder's terms of employment, if such amounts were paid based on information later
 to be discovered to be wrong, and such information was restated in the company's financial statements;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the minimum holding or vesting period of variable equity-based components to be set in the terms of office or employment, as applicable,
 while taking into consideration long-term incentives; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a limit to retirement grants.

Our compensation policy was last adopted by our compensation committee, board of directors and shareholders on April 30, 2021 and is filed as an exhibit to this Annual Report.

#### Sustainability, Nominating and Governance Committee
Our sustainability, nominating and governance committee consists of Neil Jones, Joana Parnell and Christopher Stibbs. Christopher Stibbs serves as chairperson of the committee. Our board of directors has adopted a sustainability, nominating and governance committee charter setting forth the responsibilities of the committee, which include:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• overseeing and assisting our board in reviewing and recommending nominees for election as directors;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• assessing the performance of the members of our board; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• establishing and maintaining effective corporate governance policies and practices, including, but not limited to, developing and
 recommending to our board a set of corporate governance guidelines applicable to our business.

#### Compensation of Directors and Executive Officers

#### Directors
Under the Companies Law, the compensation of our directors requires the approval of our compensation committee, the subsequent approval of the board of directors and, unless exempted under regulations promulgated under the Companies Law, the approval of the shareholders at a general meeting. If the compensation of our directors is inconsistent with our stated compensation policy, then those provisions that must be included in the compensation policy according to the Companies Law must have been considered by the compensation committee and board of directors, and shareholder approval will also be required, provided that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• at least a majority of the shares held by all shareholders who are not controlling shareholders and do not have a personal interest
 in such matter, present and voting at such meeting, are voted in favor of the compensation package, excluding abstentions; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the total number of shares of non-controlling shareholders and shareholders who do not have a personal interest in such matter voting
 against the compensation package does not exceed two percent (2%) of the aggregate voting rights in the Company.

#### Executive Officers other than the Chief Executive Officer
The Companies Law requires the approval of the compensation of a public company's executive officers (other than the chief executive officer or an executive officer who also serves as a director) in the following order: (i) the compensation committee, (ii) the company's board of directors, and (iii) if such compensation arrangement is inconsistent with the company's stated compensation policy, the company's shareholders (by a special majority vote as discussed above with respect to the approval of director compensation). However, if the shareholders of the company decline to approve a compensation arrangement with an executive officer that is inconsistent with the company's stated compensation policy, the compensation committee and board of directors may override the shareholders' decision if each of the compensation committee and the board of directors provide detailed reasons for their decision.

------

An amendment to an existing arrangement with an office holder (who is not a director) requires only the approval of the compensation committee, if the compensation committee determines that the amendment is not material in comparison to the existing arrangement. However, according to regulations promulgated under the Companies Law, an amendment to an existing arrangement with an office holder (who is not a director) who is subordinate to the chief executive officer shall not require the approval of the compensation committee, if (i) the amendment is approved by the chief executive officer, (ii) the company's compensation policy provides that a non-material amendment to the terms of service of an office holder (other than the chief executive officer) may be approved by the chief executive officer and (iii) the engagement terms are consistent with the company's compensation policy.

#### Chief Executive Officer
Under the Companies Law, the compensation of a public company's chief executive officer is required to be approved by: (i) the company's compensation committee; (ii) the company's board of directors, and (iii) the company's shareholders, provided that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• at least a majority of the shares held by all shareholders who are not controlling shareholders and do not have a personal interest
 in such matter, present and voting at such meeting, are voted in favor of the compensation package, excluding abstentions; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the total number of shares of non-controlling shareholders and shareholders who do not have a personal interest in such matter voting
 against the compensation package does not exceed two percent (2%) of the aggregate voting rights in the Company.

However, if the shareholders of the company decline to approve the compensation arrangement with the chief executive officer, the compensation committee and board of directors may override the shareholders' decision if each of the compensation committee and the board of directors provide a detailed report for their decision. The approval of each of the compensation committee and the board of directors should be in accordance with the company's stated compensation policy; however, in special circumstances, they may approve compensation terms of a chief executive officer that are inconsistent with such policy provided that they have considered those provisions that must be included in the compensation policy according to the Companies Law and that shareholder approval was obtained (by a special majority vote as discussed above with respect to the approval of director compensation that is inconsistent with the compensation policy). In addition, the compensation committee may waive the shareholder approval requirement with regards to the approval of the engagement terms of a candidate for the chief executive officer position, if they determine that the compensation arrangement is consistent with the company's stated compensation policy and that the chief executive officer candidate did not have a prior business relationship with the company or a controlling shareholder of the company and that subjecting the approval of the engagement to a shareholder vote would impede the company's ability to employ the chief executive officer candidate. Such waiver does not preclude the need for approval of the compensation of a chief executive officer candidate who also serves as a member of the board of directors, and his or her compensation terms as chief executive officer must be approved in accordance with the rules applicable to approval of compensation of directors.

#### Approval of Related Party Transactions under Israeli Law

#### Fiduciary Duties of Directors and Executive Officers
The Companies Law codifies the fiduciary duties that office holders owe to a company. An office holder is defined in the Companies Law as a general manager, chief business manager, deputy general manager, vice general manager, any other person assuming the responsibilities of any of these positions regardless of such person's title, a director and any other manager directly subordinate to the general manager. Each person listed in the table above under "*Board of Directors and Senior Management*" is an office holder under the Companies Law.

An office holder's fiduciary duties consist of a duty of care and a duty of loyalty. The duty of care requires an office holder to act with the level of care with which a reasonable office holder in the same position would have acted under the same circumstances. The duty of care includes, among other things, a duty to use reasonable means, in light of the circumstances, to obtain:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• information on the business advisability of a given action brought for his, her or its approval or performed by virtue of his, her
 or its position; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• all other important information pertaining to such action.

The duty of loyalty requires that an office holder act in good faith and in the best interests of the company, and includes, among other things, the duty to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• refrain from any act involving a conflict of interest between the performance of his, her or its duties in the company and his, her
 or its other duties or personal affairs;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• refrain from any activity that is competitive with the business of the company;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• refrain from exploiting any business opportunity of the company for the purpose of gaining a personal advantage for himself, herself
 or itself or others; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• disclose to the company any information or documents relating to the company's affairs which the office holder received as
 a result of his, her or its position as an office holder.

------

Under the Companies Law, a company may approve an act specified above which would otherwise constitute a breach of the office holder's fiduciary duty, provided that the office holder acted in good faith, neither the act nor its approval harms the company and the office holder discloses his, her or its personal interest a sufficient time before the approval of such act. Any such approval is subject to the terms of the Companies Law setting forth, among other things, the appropriate bodies of the company required to provide such approval and the methods of obtaining such approval.

#### Disclosure of Personal Interests of an Office Holder and Approval of Certain Transactions
The Companies Law requires that an office holder promptly disclose to the board of directors any personal interest that such office holder may have and all related material information known to such office holder concerning any existing or proposed transaction with the company. A personal interest includes an interest of any person in an act or transaction of a company, including a personal interest of one's relative or of a corporate body in which such person or a relative of such person is a 5% or greater shareholder, director or general manager or in which such person has the right to appoint at least one director or the general manager, but excluding a personal interest stemming solely from one's ownership of shares in the company. A personal interest includes the personal interest of a person for whom the office holder holds a voting proxy or the personal interest of the office holder with respect to the office holder's vote on behalf of a person for whom he or she holds a proxy even if such shareholder has no personal interest in the matter.

If it is determined that an office holder has a personal interest in a non-extraordinary transaction, meaning any transaction that is in the ordinary course of business, on market terms or that is not likely to have a material impact on the company's profitability, assets or liabilities, approval by the board of directors is required for the transaction unless the company's articles of association provide for a different method of approval. Any such transaction that is adverse to the company's interests may not be approved by the board of directors.

Approval first by the company's audit committee and subsequently by the board of directors is required for an extraordinary transaction (meaning any transaction that is not in the ordinary course of business, not on market terms or that is likely to have a material impact on the company's profitability, assets or liabilities) in which an office holder has a personal interest.

A director and any other office holder who has a personal interest in a transaction which is considered at a meeting of the board of directors or the audit committee may generally (unless it is with respect to a transaction which is not an extraordinary transaction) not be present at such a meeting or vote on that matter unless a majority of the directors or members of the audit committee, as applicable, have a personal interest in the matter. If a majority of the members of the audit committee or the board of directors have a personal interest in the matter, then all of the directors may participate in deliberations of the audit committee or board of directors, as applicable, with respect to such transaction and vote on the approval thereof and, in such case, shareholder approval is also required.

Certain disclosure and approval requirements apply under Israeli law to certain transactions with controlling shareholders, certain transactions in which a controlling shareholder has a personal interest and certain arrangements regarding the terms of service or employment of a controlling shareholder. For these purposes, a controlling shareholder is any shareholder that has the ability to direct the company's actions, including any shareholder holding 25% or more of the voting rights if no other shareholder owns more than 50% of the voting rights in the company. Two or more shareholders with a personal interest in the approval of the same transaction are deemed to be one shareholder for these purposes.

For a description of the approvals required under Israeli law for compensation arrangements of officers and directors, see "—*Compensation of Directors and Executive Officers*."

#### Shareholder Duties
Pursuant to the Companies Law, a shareholder has a duty to act in good faith and in a customary manner toward the company and other shareholders and to refrain from abusing his or her power with respect to the company, including, among other things, in voting at a general meeting and at shareholder class meetings with respect to the following matters:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• an amendment to the company's articles of association;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• an increase of the company's authorized share capital;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a merger; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• interested party transactions that require shareholder approval.

In addition, a shareholder has a general duty to refrain from discriminating against other shareholders.

Certain shareholders also have a duty of fairness toward the company. These shareholders include any controlling shareholder, any shareholder who knows that it has the power to determine the outcome of a shareholder vote and any shareholder who has the power to appoint or to prevent the appointment of an office holder of the company or exercise any other rights available to it under the company's articles of association with respect to the company. The Companies Law does not define the substance of this duty of fairness, except to state that the remedies generally available upon a breach of contract will also apply in the event of a breach of the duty of fairness.

------

#### Exculpation, Insurance and Indemnification of Office Holders
Under the Companies Law, a company may not exculpate an office holder from liability for a breach of the duty of loyalty. An Israeli company may exculpate an office holder in advance from liability to the company, in whole or in part, for damages caused to the company as a result of a breach of duty of care but only if a provision authorizing such exculpation is included in its articles of association. Our amended and restated articles of association include such a provision. An Israeli company may not exculpate a director from liability arising out of a prohibited dividend or distribution to shareholders.

An Israeli company may indemnify an office holder in respect of the following liabilities and expenses incurred for acts performed as an office holder, either in advance of an event or following an event, provided a provision authorizing such indemnification is contained in its articles of association:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a financial liability imposed on him or her in favor of another person pursuant to a judgment, including a settlement or arbitrator's
 award approved by a court. However, if an undertaking to indemnify an office holder with respect to such liability is provided in advance,
 then such an undertaking must be limited to events which, in the opinion of the board of directors, can be foreseen based on the company's
 activities when the undertaking to indemnify is given, and to an amount or according to criteria determined by the board of directors
 as reasonable under the circumstances, and such undertaking shall detail the abovementioned events and amount or criteria;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• reasonable litigation expenses, including legal fees, incurred by the office holder (1) as a result of an investigation or proceeding
 instituted against him or her by an authority authorized to conduct such investigation or proceeding, provided that (i) no indictment
 was filed against such office holder as a result of such investigation or proceeding; and (ii) no financial liability, such as a criminal
 penalty, was imposed upon him or her as a substitute for the criminal proceeding as a result of such investigation or proceeding or, if
 such financial liability was imposed, it was imposed with respect to an offense that does not require proof of criminal intent; and (2)
 in connection with a monetary sanction;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• reasonable litigation expenses, including legal fees, incurred by the office holder or imposed by a court in proceedings instituted
 against him or her by the company, on its behalf or by a third-party or in connection with criminal proceedings in which the office holder
 was acquitted or as a result of a conviction for an offense that does not require proof of criminal intent; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• expenses, including reasonable litigation expenses and legal fees, incurred by an office holder in relation to an administrative
 proceeding instituted against such office holder, or certain compensation payments made to an injured party imposed on an office holder
 by an administrative proceeding, pursuant to certain provisions of the Israeli Securities Law, 1968 (the "Israeli Securities Law").

An Israeli company may insure an office holder against the following liabilities incurred for acts performed as an office holder if and to the extent provided in the company's articles of association:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a breach of the duty of loyalty to the company, to the extent that the office holder acted in good faith and had a reasonable basis
 to believe that the act would not prejudice the company;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a breach of the duty of care to the company or to a third-party, including a breach arising out of the negligent conduct of the office
 holder;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a financial liability imposed on the office holder in favor of a third-party;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a financial liability imposed on the office holder in favor of a third-party harmed by a breach in an administrative proceeding;
 and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• expenses, including reasonable litigation expenses and legal fees, incurred by the office holder as a result of an administrative
 proceeding instituted against him or her, pursuant to certain provisions of the Israeli Securities Law.

An Israeli company may not indemnify or insure an office holder against any of the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a breach of the duty of loyalty, except to the extent that the office holder acted in good faith and had a reasonable basis to believe
 that the act would not prejudice the company;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a breach of the duty of care committed intentionally or recklessly, excluding a breach arising out of the negligent conduct of the
 office holder;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• an act or omission committed with intent to derive illegal personal benefit; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a fine, monetary sanction or forfeit levied against the office holder.

------

Under the Companies Law, exculpation, indemnification and insurance of office holders must be approved by the compensation committee and the board of directors (and, with respect to directors and the chief executive officer, by the shareholders). However, under regulations promulgated under the Companies Law, the insurance of office holders does not require shareholder approval and may be approved by only the compensation committee, if the engagement terms are determined in accordance with the company's compensation policy, which was approved by the shareholders by the same special majority required to approve a compensation policy, provided that the insurance policy is on market terms and the insurance policy is not likely to materially impact the company's profitability, assets or obligations.

Our amended and restated articles of association allow us to exculpate, indemnify and insure our office holders for any liability imposed on them as a consequence of an act (including any omission) which was performed by virtue of being an office holder. Our office holders are currently covered by a directors and officers' liability insurance policy.

We have entered into agreements with each of our directors and executive officers exculpating them in advance, to the fullest extent permitted by law, from liability to us for damages caused to us as a result of a breach of duty of care and undertaking to indemnify them to the fullest extent permitted by law. This indemnification is limited to events determined as foreseeable by the board of directors based on our activities, and to an amount or according to criteria determined by the board of directors as reasonable under the circumstances.

The maximum indemnification amount set forth in such agreements is limited to an amount equal to the higher of $50 million and 25% of our total shareholders' equity as reflected in our most recent consolidated financial statements prior to the date on which the indemnity payment is made (other than indemnification for an offering of securities to the public, including by a shareholder in a secondary offering, in which case the maximum indemnification amount is limited to the gross proceeds raised by us and/or any selling shareholder in such public offering). The maximum amount set forth in such agreements is in addition to any amount paid (if paid) under insurance and/or by a third-party pursuant to an indemnification arrangement.

In the opinion of the SEC, indemnification of directors and office holders for liabilities arising under the Securities Act, however, is against public policy and therefore unenforceable.

#### Internal Auditor
Under the Companies Law, the board of directors of a public company must appoint an internal auditor based on the recommendation of the audit committee. The role of the internal auditor is, among other things, to examine whether a company's actions comply with applicable law and orderly business procedure. Under the Companies Law, the internal auditor cannot be an interested party or an office holder or a relative of an interested party or an office holder, nor may the internal auditor be the company's independent auditor or its representative. An "interested party" is defined in the Companies Law as (i) a holder of 5% or more of the issued share capital or voting power in a company, (ii) any person or entity who has the right to designate one or more directors or to designate the chief executive officer of the company or (iii) any person who serves as a director or as chief executive officer of the company. Fahn Kanne Control Management Ltd., Grant Thornton Israel, serves as our internal auditor.

#### 6.D. EMPLOYEES
As of December 31, 2022, we had 1,087 employees, including 682 in the US, 181 in Tel Aviv and 224 employees in other international locations. None of our employees are represented by labor unions or covered by collective bargaining agreements. We consider our relationship with our employees to be good.

#### 6.E. SHARE OWNERSHIP

#### ITEM 7: MAJOR SHAREHOLDERS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

#### 7.A. MAJOR SHAREHOLDERS
The following table sets forth information with respect to the beneficial ownership of our ordinary shares as of February 28, 2023:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• each person or entity known by us to own beneficially more than 5% of our outstanding ordinary shares;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• each of our directors and executive officers individually; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• all of our executive officers and directors as a group.

The beneficial ownership of ordinary shares is determined in accordance with the SEC rules and generally includes any ordinary shares over which a person exercises sole or shared voting or investment power, which includes the power to dispose of or to direct the disposition of such security. For purposes of the table below, we deem shares subject to options, RSUs or PSUs that are currently exercisable or exercisable or vested within 60 days of February 28, 2023 to be outstanding and to be beneficially owned by the person holding the options RSUs, or PSUs for the purposes of computing the percentage ownership of that person but we do not treat them as outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person, except with respect to the ownership and percentage ownership of all executive officers and directors as a group.

------

The percentage of shares beneficially owned are based on 143,510,865 ordinary shares outstanding as of February 28, 2023.

Unless otherwise noted below, each shareholder's address is 82 Yigal Alon Street, Tel Aviv, 6789124, Israel.

#### Significant Changes in Percentage Ownership
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On February 23, 2022, our board of directors authorized a repurchase plan under which up to $75.0 million ordinary shares could be purchased on AIM. By September 30, 2022, the Company completed the $75.0 million share repurchase program, repurchasing a total of 13,792,485 ordinary shares at an average price of 437.54 pence, for a total investment of approximately £60.5 million, or $75.0 million, including fees.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; In September 2022, our board of directors authorized a new share repurchase program, authorizing the purchase of up to $20.0 million of its ordinary shares on AIM. The new repurchase plan commenced on October 1, 2022, and will continue until April 1, 2023, or until it has been completed and the program may be suspended, modified, or discontinued at any time at the Company's discretion, subject to applicable law. All share repurchases will be made in accordance with all applicable securities laws and regulations. From October 1, 2022 through December 31, 2022, the Company repurchased under such plan a total of 3,114,310 ordinary shares at an average price of 304.48 pence, for a total investment of approximately £9.5 million, or $11.3 million, including fees

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In 2022, the Company's $75.0 million share repurchase program and $20.0 million share repurchase program, combined to repurchase 16,906,975 ordinary shares on AIM, or approximately 11% of shares outstanding, at an average price of 413.03 pence which reflected a total combined investment of approximately £70.0 million, or $86.3 million.

Other than as set forth above and otherwise disclosed in this Annual Report, no significant changes have occurred since December 31, 2022.

#### 7.B. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Our policy is to enter into transactions with related parties on terms that, on the whole, are no more or less favorable than those available from unaffiliated third parties. Based on our experience in the business sectors in which we operate and the terms of our transactions with unaffiliated third parties, we believe that all of the transactions described below met this policy standard at the time they occurred

The following is a description of our related party transactions since January 1, 2022.

#### Agreements with Directors and Officers

#### Employment Agreements
We have entered into written employment agreements with each of our executive officers. See Item 6. "*Directors, Senior Management and Employees*."

#### Equity Incentive Awards
Since our inception, we have granted to our executive officers and certain of our directors restricted share units, performance share units and options to purchase our ordinary shares. See Item 6. "*Directors, Senior Management and Employees*."

#### Exculpation, Indemnification and Insurance
Our amended and restated articles of association permit us to exculpate, indemnify and insure certain of our office holders to the fullest extent permitted by the Companies Law. We have entered into agreements with each of our directors and executive officers exculpating them in advance, to the fullest extent permitted by law, from liability to us for damages caused to us as a result of a breach of duty of care and undertaking to indemnify them to the fullest extent permitted by law. See Item 6*.* "*Directors, Senior Management and Employees*."

#### Rights of Appointment
Our current board of directors consists of nine directors. We are not a party to, and are not aware of, any voting agreements among our shareholders.

#### Related Party Transaction Policy
Our board of directors has adopted a written related party transaction policy to set forth the policies and procedures for the review and approval or ratification of related person transactions. This policy covers, with certain exceptions set forth in Item 404 of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act, any transaction, arrangement or relationship, or any series of similar transactions, arrangements or relationships, in which we were or are to be a participant, where the amount involved exceeds $120,000 and a related person had or will have a direct or indirect material interest, including, without limitation, purchases of goods or services by or from the related person or entities in which the related person has a material interest, indebtedness, guarantees of indebtedness and employment by us of a related person.

#### 7.C. INTERESTS OF EXPERTS AND COUNSEL
Not applicable.

#### ITEM 8: FINANCIAL INFORMATION

#### 8.A. COMBINED STATEMENTS AND OTHER FINANCIAL INFORMATION

#### Combined Financial Statements
We have appended our audited consolidated financial statements at the end of this Annual Report, starting at page F-3, as part of this Annual Report.

#### Legal Proceedings
We may from time to time, be party to legal or regulatory proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. Defending any such legal proceedings is costly and can impose a significant burden on management and employees. The results of any current or future litigation cannot be predicted with certainty, and regardless of the outcome, litigation can have an adverse impact on us because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources, and other factors.

On May 18, 2021, we filed a complaint against Alphonso, Inc. ("Alphonso") in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York (the "Court"), asserting claims for breach of contract, tortious interference with business relations, intentional interference with contractual relations, unjust enrichment, and conversion (the "Alphonso Lawsuit"). The lawsuit arose out of Alphonso's breach of a Strategic Partnership Agreement and an Advance Payment Obligation and Security Agreement (the "Security Agreement") with us, and LG Electronics Inc.'s ("LG") tortious interference with Tremor's contractual relationships and business relations and related misconduct. We are seeking damages and other relief, including an order foreclosing on Alphonso's collateral under the Security Agreement, from the Court. On May 24, 2021, Alphonso filed a complaint against Tremor in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York, asserting claims for breach of contract, unfair competition, and tortious interference with business relations. This proceeding is related to the Alphonso Lawsuit. Alphonso, LG, and the Company are currently engaged in depositions and expert discovery.

On June 21, 2022, Alphonso filed a complaint against the Company in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, asserting claims for misappropriation of trade secrets under federal and state law. On July 19, 2022, Alphonso also filed a motion for a preliminary injunction. On October 31, 2022, the Court denied Alphonso's motion for a preliminary injunction. Alphonso and the Company are currently engaged in fact discovery.

#### Policy on Dividend Distributions
We do not anticipate paying any dividends in the foreseeable future. We currently intend to retain future earnings, if any, to finance operations and expand our business. Our board of directors has sole discretion whether to pay dividends. If our board of directors decides to pay dividends, the form, frequency and amount will depend upon our future operations and earnings, capital requirements and surplus, general financial condition, contractual restrictions and other factors that our directors may deem relevant.

Our board of directors has sole discretion whether to pay dividends. If our board of directors decides to pay dividends, the form, frequency and amount will depend upon our future operations and earnings, capital requirements and surplus, general financial condition, contractual restrictions and other factors that our directors may deem relevant. Although we have paid dividends in the past, we do not anticipate paying any dividends in the foreseeable future.

The Companies Law imposes restrictions on our ability to declare and pay dividends. Pursuant to the Companies Law, the distribution amount is limited to the greater of retained earnings or earnings generated over the previous two years, according to our then last reviewed or audited financial statements (less the amount of previously distributed dividends, if not reduced from the earnings), provided that the end of the period to which the financial statements relate is not more than six months prior to the date of the distribution. If we do not meet such criteria, then we may distribute dividends only with court approval. In each case, we are only permitted to distribute a dividend if our board of directors and, if applicable, the court determines that there is no reasonable concern that payment of the dividend will prevent us from satisfying our existing and foreseeable obligations as they become due.

#### 8.B. SIGNIFICANT CHANGES
No significant changes have occurred since December 31, 2022, except as otherwise disclosed in this Annual Report.

There are currently no Israeli currency control restrictions on remittances of dividends on our ordinary shares, proceeds from the sale of the ordinary shares or ADSs or interest or other payments to non-residents of Israel, except for shareholders who are subjects of countries that are, have been, or will be, in a state of war with Israel.

------

#### 10.E. TAXATION
The following description is not intended to constitute a complete analysis of all tax consequences relating to the acquisition, ownership and disposition of our ADSs. You should consult your own tax advisor concerning the tax consequences of your particular situation, as well as any tax consequences that may arise under the laws of any state, local, foreign or other taxing jurisdiction.

#### Tax Considerations
The following is a brief summary of the material Israeli tax laws applicable to us. This section also contains a discussion of material Israeli tax consequences concerning the ownership and disposition of our ADSs. This summary does not discuss all the aspects of Israeli tax law that may be relevant to a particular investor in light of his or her personal investment circumstances or to some types of investors subject to special treatment under Israeli law. Examples of such investors include residents of Israel or traders in securities who are subject to special tax regimes not covered in this discussion. To the extent that the discussion is based on new tax legislation that has not yet been subject to judicial or administrative interpretation, we cannot assure you that the appropriate tax authorities or the courts will accept the views expressed in this discussion. The discussion below is subject to change, including due to amendments under Israeli law or changes to the applicable judicial or administrative interpretations of Israeli law, which change could affect the tax consequences described below. The discussion should not be construed as legal or professional tax advice and does not cover all possible tax considerations.

#### General Corporate Tax Structure in Israel
Israeli companies are generally subject to corporate tax. The current corporate tax rate is 23%. Capital gains derived by an Israeli company are generally subject to the prevailing corporate tax rate. Nevertheless, as elaborated below, the Law for the Encouragement of Capital Investments provides tax benefits for Israeli enterprises meeting certain requirements and criteria. In our context, the Company's enterprise may be eligible to the "preferred technological enterprise" and a "special preferred technological enterprise" that awards reduced tax rates of 12%. Additionally, the taxable income of the company outside the Company's enterprise will be subject to corporate tax as mentioned above.

#### Tax Benefits and Grants for Research and Development
Israeli tax law allows, under certain conditions, a tax deduction for expenditures, including capital expenditures, related to scientific research and development for the year in which they are incurred. Expenditures are deemed related to scientific research and development projects, if:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the expenditures are approved by the relevant Israeli government ministry, determined by the field of research;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the research and development must be for the promotion of the company; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the research and development are carried out by or on behalf of the company seeking such tax deduction.

The amount of such deductible expenses is reduced by the sum of any funds received through government grants for the finance of such scientific research and development projects. Under these research and development deduction rules, no deduction is allowed for any expense invested in an asset depreciable under the general depreciation rules of the Israeli Income Tax Ordinance (New Version), 5721-1961. Expenditures that do not qualify for this special deduction are deductible in equal amounts over three years.

From time to time, we may apply to the Israel Innovation Authority for approval to allow a tax deduction for all research and development expenses during the year incurred. There can be no assurance that such request will be granted. If we will not be able to deduct research and development expenses during the year of the payment, we will be able to deduct research and development expenses during a period of three years commencing in the year of the payment of such expenses.

#### Digital Services Tax
The Company constantly examines the potential applicability of the digital services tax legislation on its activities in the various jurisdictions. In addition, the Company studies the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) Pillar I and Pillar II publications and their effect on the Company.

#### Taxation of Non-Israeli Resident Shareholders
*Capital Gains Taxes*

Israeli capital gains tax is imposed on the disposition of capital assets by a non-Israeli resident if those assets (i) are located in Israel, (ii) are shares or a right to shares in an Israeli resident corporation or (iii) represent, directly or indirectly, rights to assets located in Israel, unless a tax treaty between Israel and the seller's country of residence provides otherwise. The Israeli tax law distinguishes between "Real Capital Gain" and "Inflationary Surplus." Inflationary Surplus is a portion of the total capital gain which is equivalent to the increase in the relevant asset's price that is attributable to the increase in the Israeli Consumer Price Index or, in certain circumstances, a foreign currency exchange rate, between the date of purchase and the date of disposition. Inflationary Surplus is currently not subject to tax in Israel. Real Capital Gain is the excess of the total capital gain over the Inflationary Surplus. Generally, Real Capital Gain accrued by individuals on the sale of our ADSs will be taxed at the rate of 25%. However, if the shareholder is a "substantial shareholder" at the time of sale or at any time during the preceding 12-month period, such gain will be taxed at the rate of 30%. A "substantial shareholder" is generally a person who alone or together with such person's relative or another person who collaborates with such person on a permanent basis, holds, directly or indirectly, at least 10% of any of the "means of control" of the corporation. "Means of control" generally include the right to vote, receive profits, nominate a director or an executive officer, receive assets upon liquidation, or order someone who holds any of the aforesaid rights how to act, regardless of the source of such right. Real Capital Gain derived by corporations will be generally subject to a corporate tax rate of 23% (in 2022).

------

A non-Israeli resident who derives capital gains from the sale of shares of an Israeli resident company that were purchased after the company was listed for trading on a stock exchange outside of Israel will be exempt from Israeli capital gains tax so long as the shares were not held through a permanent establishment that the non-Israeli resident maintains in Israel. However, non-Israeli corporations will not be entitled to the foregoing exemption if Israeli residents (i) have a controlling interest of more than 25% in any of the means of control of such non-Israeli corporation or (ii) are the beneficiaries of, or are entitled to, 25% or more of the revenues or profits of such non-Israeli corporation, whether directly or indirectly.

In addition, such exemption is not applicable to a person whose gains from selling or disposing the shares are deemed to be business income.

Additionally, a sale of securities by a non-Israeli resident may be exempt from Israeli capital gains tax under the provisions of an applicable tax treaty. For example, under the tax treaty between the Government of the United States of America and the Government of the State of Israel with respect to Taxes on Income, as amended (the "United States-Israel Tax Treaty"), the sale, exchange or other disposition of shares by a shareholder who is a United States resident (for purposes of the treaty) holding the shares as a capital asset and is entitled to claim the benefits afforded to such a resident by the United States-Israel Tax Treaty (a "Treaty U.S. Resident") is generally exempt from Israeli capital gains tax unless: (i) the capital gain arising from such sale, exchange or disposition is attributed to real estate located in Israel; (ii) the capital gain arising from such sale, exchange or disposition is attributed to royalties; (iii) the capital gain arising from the such sale, exchange or disposition is attributed to a permanent establishment in Israel, under certain terms; (iv) such Treaty U.S. Resident holds, directly or indirectly, shares representing 10% or more of the voting capital during any part of the 12-month period preceding the disposition, subject to certain conditions; or (v) such Treaty U.S. Resident is an individual and was present in Israel for 183 days or more during the relevant taxable year. In any such case, the sale, exchange or disposition of such shares would be subject to Israeli tax, to the extent applicable. However, under the United States-Israel Tax Treaty, a Treaty U.S. Resident may be permitted to claim a credit for the Israeli tax against the U.S. federal income tax imposed with respect to the sale, exchange or disposition of the shares, subject to the limitations under U.S. laws applicable to foreign tax credits. The United States-Israel Tax Treaty does not provide such credit against any U.S. state or local taxes.

Regardless of whether non-Israeli shareholders may be liable for Israeli capital gains tax on the sale of our ADSs, the payment of the consideration for such sale may be subject to withholding of Israeli tax at source and holders of our ADSs may be required to demonstrate that they are exempt from tax on their capital gains in order to avoid withholding at source at the time of sale. Specifically, the Israel Tax Authority may require shareholders who are not liable for Israeli capital gains tax on such a sale to sign declarations in forms specified by the Israel Tax Authority, provide documents (including, for example, a certificate of residency) or obtain a specific exemption from the Israel Tax Authority to confirm their status as non-Israeli residents (and, in the absence of such declarations or exemptions, the Israel Tax Authority may require the purchaser of the shares to withhold tax at source).

#### Capital gains taxes applicable to Israeli resident shareholders.
An Israeli resident corporation that derives capital gains from the sale of shares in an Israeli resident company that were purchased after the company was listed for trading on a stock exchange outside of Israel will generally be subject to tax on the real capital gains generated on such sale at the corporate tax rate of 23%. An Israeli resident individual will generally be subject to capital gain tax at the rate of 25%. However, if the individual shareholder claims deduction of interest expenditures or is a "substantial shareholder" at the time of the sale or at any time during the preceding 12-months period, such gain will be taxed at the rate of 30%. A "substantial shareholder" is generally a person who alone or together with such person's relative or another person who collaborates with such person on a permanent basis, holds, directly or indirectly, at least 10% of any of the "means of control" of the corporation. "Means of control" generally include the right to vote, receive profits, nominate a director or an executive officer, receive assets upon liquidation, or order someone who holds any of the aforesaid rights how to act, regardless of the source of such right. Individual holders dealing in securities in Israel for whom the income from the sale of securities is considered "business income" as defined in section 2(1) of the Ordinance are taxed at the marginal tax rates applicable to business income (up to 47% in 2022). Certain Israeli institutions who are exempt from tax under section 9(2) or section 129(a)(1) of the Ordinance (such as exempt trust fund, pension fund) may be exempt from capital gains tax from the sale of the shares.

***Taxation on Receipt of Dividends*.** <u>Non-Israeli residents</u> (whether individuals or corporations) are generally subject to Israeli income tax on the receipt of dividends paid on our ADSs at the rate of 25% or 20% if the dividend is distributed from income attributed to a Preferred Enterprise or a Preferred Technological Enterprise (see more details below). which tax will be withheld at source, unless relief is provided in an applicable tax treaty between Israel and the shareholder's country of residence. However, if the shareholder who is a "substantial shareholder" at the time of receiving the dividend or at any time during the preceding 12-month period, the applicable tax rate will be 30%. Such dividends are generally subject to Israeli withholding tax at a rate of 25% so long as the shares are registered with a nominee company (whether the recipient is a substantial shareholder or not).

------

However, a reduced tax rate may be provided under an applicable tax treaty. For example, under the United States-Israel Tax Treaty, the maximum rate of tax withheld at source in Israel on dividends paid to a holder of our ADSs who is a Treaty U.S. Resident is 25%. However, generally, the maximum rate of withholding tax on dividends that are paid to a United States corporation holding 10% or more of the outstanding voting capital throughout the tax year in which the dividend is distributed as well as during the previous tax year, is 12.5%, provided that not more than 25% of the gross income for such preceding year consists of certain types of dividends and interest.

<u>An Israeli resident</u> individual is generally subject to Israeli income tax on the receipt of dividends at the rate of 25%. With respect to a person who is a "substantial shareholder" at the time of receiving the dividend or on any time during the preceding 12-months period, the applicable tax rate is 30%. Such dividends are generally subject to Israeli withholding tax at a rate of 25% if the shares are registered with a nominee company (whether the recipient is a substantial shareholder or not), and 20% if the dividend is distributed from income attributed to a Preferred Enterprise or a Preferred Technological Enterprise (see more details below). If the recipient of the dividend is an Israeli resident corporation such dividend income will be exempt from tax provided the income from which such dividend is distributed was derived or accrued within Israel and was received directly or indirectly from another corporation that is liable to Israeli corporate tax. An exempt trust fund, pension fund or other entity that is exempt from tax under section 9(2) or section 129C(a)(1) of the Israeli Tax Ordinance is exempt from tax on dividend.

***Surtax.*** Subject to the provisions of an applicable tax treaty, individuals who are subject to income tax in Israel (whether any such individual is an Israeli resident or non-Israeli resident) are also subject to an additional tax at a rate of 3% on annual income (including, but not limited to, income derived from dividends, interest and capital gains) exceeding NIS 663.240 for 2022, which amount is linked to the annual change in the Israeli consumer price index.

***Estate and Gift Tax.*** Israeli law presently does not impose estate taxes. Gift tax may be applicable in certain cases.

#### Law for the Encouragement of Industry (Taxes), 1969
The Law for the Encouragement of Industry (Taxes), 1969, generally referred to as the Industry Encouragement Law, provides several tax benefits for "Industry Companies." We currently qualify as an Industrial Company within the meaning of the Industry Encouragement Law. The Industry Encouragement Law defines an "Industrial Company" as a company resident in Israel, of which 90% or more of its income in any tax year, other than income from defense loans, is derived from an "Industrial Enterprise" owned by it and located in Israel. An "Industrial Enterprise" is defined as an enterprise whose principal activity in a given tax year is industrial production. The following corporate tax benefits, among others, are available to Industrial Companies:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Amortization over an eight-year period of the cost of purchased know-how and patents and rights to use a patent and know-how which
 are used for the development or advancement of the company;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Under limited conditions, an election to file consolidated tax returns with related Israeli Industrial Companies; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Expenses related to a public offering are deductible in equal amounts over a three-year period.

Eligibility for benefits under the Industry Encouragement Law is not contingent upon the approval of any governmental authority. The Israeli tax authorities may determine that we do not qualify as an Industrial Company, which could entail our loss of the benefits that relate to this status. There can be no assurance that we will continue to qualify as an Industrial Company or that the benefits described above will be available in the future.

#### Law for the Encouragement of Capital Investments, 1959
The Law for the Encouragement of Capital Investments (the "Investments Law") provides tax benefits for Israeli companies meeting certain requirements and criteria. The Investment Law has undergone certain amendments and reforms in recent years.

The Israeli parliament enacted a reform to the Investment Law, effective as of January 2011. According to the reform, a flat rate tax applies to companies eligible for the "Preferred Enterprise" status. In order to be eligible for Preferred Enterprise status, a company must meet minimum requirements to establish that it contributes to the country's economic growth and is a competitive factor for the gross domestic product.

On December 22, 2016, an Amendment to the Investments Law was enacted and added new tax benefit tracks for a "preferred technological enterprise" and a "special preferred technological enterprise" that awards reduced tax rates to a technological industrial enterprise for the purpose of encouraging activity relating to the development of qualifying intangible assets.

Preferred technological income that meets the conditions required by law, will be subject to a reduced corporate tax rate of 12%, and if the preferred technological enterprise is located in Development Area A to a tax rate of 7.5%. The Amendment is effective as of January 1, 2017.

The Amendment also provides that no tax will apply to a dividend distributed out of preferred income of preferred technological enterprise to a shareholder that is an Israeli resident company. In addition, a tax rate of 20% shall apply to a dividend distributed out of preferred income preferred technological enterprise to an individual shareholder or foreign resident, in addition 4% dividend withholding tax would apply in case at least 90% of the company's shares are held directly by, one or more, foreign entities.

------

Effective until December 31, 2022, the Company has a tax ruling which was obtained from the Israeli Tax Authorities and determines that the company owns an industrial enterprise and Preferred Technological Enterprise as defined in the Investments Law. The Company is in the process to apply to the Israeli Tax Authorities for an extension of the approval.

#### U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations
The following summary describes certain United States federal income tax considerations generally applicable to United States Holders (as defined below) of our ADSs. This summary deals only with our ADSs held as capital assets within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, (the "Internal Revenue Code"). This summary also does not address the tax consequences that may be relevant to holders in special tax situations including, without limitation, dealers in securities, traders that elect to use a mark-to-market method of accounting, holders that own our ADSs as part of a "straddle," "hedge," "conversion transaction," or other integrated investment, banks or other financial institutions, individual retirement accounts and other tax-deferred accounts, insurance companies, tax-exempt organizations, United States expatriates, holders whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar, holders that are real estate investment trusts or regulated investment companies, grantor trusts, holders subject to special tax accounting rules as a result of any item of gross income with respect to our ADSs being taken into account in an applicable financial statement, holders which are entities or arrangements treated as partnerships, S-corporations or other pass-through entities for United States federal income tax purposes, holders who acquired ADSs pursuant to the exercise of any employee share option or otherwise as compensation or holders that directly, indirectly, or constructively own 10% or more of the total voting power or value of our outstanding stock.

This summary is based upon the Internal Revenue Code, applicable United States Treasury regulations, administrative pronouncements and judicial decisions, in each case as in effect on the date hereof, all of which are subject to change (possibly with retroactive effect). No ruling will be requested from the Internal Revenue Service, or IRS, regarding the tax consequences described herein, and there can be no assurance that the IRS will agree with the discussion set out below. This summary does not address any United States federal tax consequences other than United States federal income tax consequences (such as the alternative minimum tax, estate and gift tax or the Medicare tax on net investment income).

As used herein, the term "United States Holder" means a beneficial owner of our ADSs that is, for United States federal income tax purposes, (i) an individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States, (ii) a corporation or other entity taxable as a corporation created or organized under the laws of the United States or any state thereof or therein or the District of Columbia, (iii) an estate the income of which is subject to United States federal income taxation regardless of its source, or (iv) a trust (a) that is subject to the supervision of a court within the United States and the control of one or more "United States persons" as defined in Internal Revenue Code Section 7701(a)(30), or (b) that has a valid election in effect under applicable United States Treasury regulations to be treated as a "United States person."

If an entity or arrangement treated as a partnership for United States federal income tax purposes acquires our ADSs, the tax treatment of a partner in the partnership generally will depend upon the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. Partners of a partnership considering an investment in our ADSs should consult their tax advisors regarding the United States federal income tax consequences of acquiring, owning, and disposing of our ADSs.

The discussion below assumes that the representations contained in the deposit agreement are true and that the obligations in the deposit agreement and any related agreement will be complied with in accordance with their terms. Generally, a holder of an ADS should be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as holding the ordinary shares represented by the ADS. Accordingly, no gain or loss will generally be recognized upon an exchange of ADSs for ordinary shares.

**THE SUMMARY OF UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES SET OUT BELOW IS FOR GENERAL INFORMATION ONLY. ALL CURRENT OR PROSPECTIVE INVESTORS SHOULD CONSULT THEIR TAX ADVISORS AS TO THE PARTICULAR TAX CONSEQUENCES TO THEM OF OWNING AND DISPOSING OF OUR ADSS, INCLUDING THE APPLICABILITY AND EFFECT OF STATE, LOCAL AND NON-U.S. TAX LAWS AND POSSIBLE CHANGES IN TAX LAW.**

#### Dividends
Subject to the discussion below under "—*Passive Foreign Investment Company*," the amount of dividends paid to a United States Holder with respect to our ADSs before reduction for any Israeli taxes withheld therefrom generally will be included in the United States Holder's gross income as dividend income from foreign sources to the extent paid out of our current or accumulated earnings and profits (as determined for United States federal income tax purposes). Distributions in excess of earnings and profits are generally treated as a non-taxable return of capital to the extent of the United States Holder's adjusted tax basis in those ADSs and thereafter as capital gain. However, we do not intend to calculate our earnings and profits under United States federal income tax principles. Therefore, United States Holders should expect that a distribution will generally be treated as a dividend even if that distribution would otherwise be treated as a non-taxable return of capital or as capital gain under the rules described above. The dividends will not be eligible for the dividends received deduction available to corporations in respect of dividends received from other United States corporations. The amount of any distribution paid in foreign currency will be equal to the U.S. dollar value of such currency, translated at the spot rate of exchange on the date such distribution is included in the United States Holder's income, regardless of whether the payment is in fact converted into U.S. dollars at that time.

------

Dividends paid on our ADSs generally will constitute "foreign source income" for purposes of the foreign tax credit. Foreign withholding tax (if any) paid on dividends on our ADSs at the rate applicable to a United States Holder (taking into account any applicable income tax treaty) may, subject to limitations and conditions, be treated as foreign income tax eligible for credit against such holder's United States federal income tax liability or, at such holder's election, eligible for deduction in computing such holder's United States federal taxable income. If a refund of the tax withheld is available under the laws of the state of Israel or under the applicable income tax treaty, the amount of tax withheld that is refundable will not be eligible for such credit against a United States Holder's U.S. federal income tax liability (and will not be eligible for the deduction against U.S. federal taxable income). If the dividends are taxed as "qualified dividend income," as discussed below, the amount of the dividend taken into account for purposes of calculating the foreign tax credit limitation will generally be limited to the gross amount of the dividend, multiplied by the reduced rate applicable to the qualified dividend income, divided by the highest rate of tax normally applicable to dividends. The limitation on foreign taxes eligible for credit is calculated separately with respect to specific classes of income. For this purpose, any dividends distributed by us with respect to ADSs will generally constitute "passive category income."

The rules governing the treatment of foreign taxes imposed on a United States Holder and foreign tax credits are complex, and United States Holders should consult their tax advisors about the impact of these rules in their particular situations.

Dividends received by certain non-corporate United States Holders (including individuals) may be "qualified dividend income," which is taxed at the lower capital gain rate, provided that (i) either our ADSs are readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States or we are eligible for benefits under a comprehensive United States income tax treaty that includes an exchange of information program and which the United States Treasury Department has determined is satisfactory for these purposes, (ii) we are neither a PFIC (as discussed below) nor treated as such with respect to the United States Holder for either our taxable year in which the dividend is paid or our preceding taxable year, (iii) the United States Holder satisfies certain holding period and other requirements and (iv) the United States Holder is not under an obligation to make related payments with respect to positions in substantially similar or related property. In this regard, shares generally are considered to be readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States if they are listed on the Nasdaq, as is the case with our ADSs. United States Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the availability of the reduced tax rate on dividends paid with respect to our ADSs.

#### Disposition of ADSs
Subject to the discussion below under "—*Passive Foreign Investment Company*," a United States Holder generally will recognize capital gain or loss for United States federal income tax purposes on the sale or other taxable disposition of our ADSs equal to the difference, if any, between the amount realized and the United States Holder's adjusted tax basis in those ADSs. A United States Holder's initial tax basis in shares generally will equal the cost of such shares. If any foreign tax is imposed on the sale, exchange or other disposition of our ADSs, a United States Holder's amount realized will include the gross amount of the proceeds of the deposits before deduction of the tax. In general, capital gains recognized by a non-corporate United States Holder, including an individual, are treated as long term capital gain and thus subject to a lower rate under current law if such United States Holder's holding period in our ADSs exceeds one year. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations. Any such gain or loss generally will be treated as United States source income or loss for purposes of the foreign tax credit. Because gain for the sale or other taxable disposition of our ADSs will be treated as United States source income, and you may use foreign tax credits against only the portion of United States federal income tax liability that is attributed to foreign source income in the same category, your ability to utilize a foreign tax credit with respect to any foreign tax imposed on any such sale or other taxable disposition, if any, may be significantly limited. In addition, if you are eligible for the benefit of the income tax convention between the United States and the State of Israel and pay Israeli tax in excess of the amount applicable to you under such convention or if the Israeli tax paid is refundable, you will not be able to claim any foreign tax credit or deduction with respect to such Israeli tax. You should consult your tax advisor as to whether the Israeli tax on gains may be creditable or deductible in light of your particular circumstances and your ability to apply the provisions of an applicable treaty.

If the consideration received upon the sale or other taxable disposition of our ADSs is paid in foreign currency, the amount realized will be the U.S. dollar value of the payment received, translated at the spot rate of exchange on the date of taxable disposition. If our ADSs are treated as traded on an established securities market, a cash basis United States Holder and an accrual basis United States Holder who has made a special election (which must be applied consistently from year to year and cannot be changed without the consent of the IRS) will determine the U.S. dollar value of the amount realized in foreign currency by translating the amount received at the spot rate of exchange on the settlement date of the taxable disposition. An accrual basis United States Holder that does not make the special election will recognize exchange gain or loss to the extent attributable to the difference between the exchange rates on the date of the taxable disposition and the settlement date, and such exchange gain or loss generally will constitute ordinary income or loss.

#### Passive Foreign Investment Company
We would be a PFIC for any taxable year if, after the application of certain look-through rules, either: (i) 75% or more of our gross income for such year is "passive income" (as defined in the relevant provisions of the Internal Revenue Code), or (ii) 50% or more of the value of our assets (determined on the basis of a quarterly average) during such year is attributable to assets that produce or are held for the production of passive income. Passive income generally includes, among other things, rents, dividends, interest, royalties, gains from the disposition of passive assets and gains from commodities and securities transactions. For purposes of this test, we will be treated as owning a proportionate share of the assets and earning a proportionate share of the income of any other corporation of which we own, directly or indirectly, 25% or more (by value) of the stock.

------

Based on the current and anticipated composition of our income, assets and operations we do not expect to be treated as a PFIC for the current taxable year or in the foreseeable future. However, whether we are a PFIC is a factual determination that must be made annually after the close of each taxable year. This determination will depend on, among other things, the composition of the Company's income and assets, as well as the market value of our ADSs and assets, which may fluctuate significantly. In addition, it is possible that the IRS may take a contrary position with respect to our determination in any particular year. Therefore, there can be no assurance that we will not be classified as a PFIC for the current taxable year or any future taxable year.

Certain adverse United States federal income tax consequences could apply to a United States Holder if we are treated as a PFIC for any taxable year during which such United States Holder holds our ADSs. Under the PFIC rules, if we were considered a PFIC at any time that a United States Holder holds our ADSs, we would continue to be treated as a PFIC with respect to such holder's investment unless (i) we cease to be a PFIC, and (ii) the United States Holder has made a "deemed sale" election under the PFIC rules. If such election is made, a United States Holder will be deemed to have sold our ADSs at their fair market value on the last day of our last taxable year in which we were a PFIC, and any gain from the deemed sale would be subject to the rules described in the second following paragraph. After the deemed sale election, so long as we do not become a PFIC in a subsequent taxable year, the ADSs with respect to which such election was made will not be treated as shares in a PFIC.

United States Holders should consult their tax advisors as to the possibility and consequences of making a deemed sale election if we are (or were to become) and then cease to be a PFIC, and such election becomes available.

If we are a PFIC for any taxable year that a United States Holder holds our ADSs, unless the United States Holder makes one of the elections described below, any gain recognized by the United States Holder on a sale or other disposition of our ADSs would be allocated pro-rata over the United States Holder's holding period for the ADSs. The amounts allocated to the taxable year of the sale or other disposition and to any year before we became a PFIC would be taxed as ordinary income. The amount allocated to each other taxable year would be subject to tax at the highest rate in effect for individuals or the highest rate in effect for corporations, as appropriate, for that taxable year, and an interest charge would be imposed. Further, to the extent that any distribution received by a United States Holder on our ADSs exceeds 125% of the average of the annual distributions on the ADSs received during the preceding three years or the United States Holder's holding period, whichever is shorter, that distribution would be subject to taxation in the same manner as gain on the sale or other disposition of our ADSs if we were a PFIC, described above. If we are treated as a PFIC with respect to a United States Holder for any taxable year, the United States Holder will be deemed to own shares in any of the foreign entities in which we may hold equity interests that also are PFICs, or lower-tier PFICs.

Certain elections may be available that would result in alternative treatments (such as mark-to-market treatment or treatment as a qualified electing fund ("QEF")) of our ADSs if we are considered a PFIC. However, we do not expect to furnish United States Holders of our ADSs with the tax information necessary to enable a United States Holder to make a QEF election. In addition, an election for mark-to-market treatment is unlikely to be available to mitigate any adverse tax consequences with respect to a subsidiary that is also a PFIC. If we are considered a PFIC, a United States Holder will also be subject to annual information reporting requirements. United States Holders should consult their tax advisors about the potential application of the PFIC rules to an investment in our ADSs and the potential consequences related thereto.

**United States Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding whether we are a PFIC as well as the potential U.S. federal income tax consequences of holding and disposing of our ADSs if we are or become classified as a PFIC, including the possibility of making a mark-to-market election in their particular circumstances.**

#### Information Reporting and Backup Withholding
Distributions on our ADSs and proceeds from the sale or other taxable disposition of our ADSs may be subject to information reporting to the IRS and possible backup withholding. Backup withholding will not apply, however, to a United States Holder who furnishes a correct taxpayer identification number and certifies that it is not subject to backup withholding or that is otherwise exempt from backup withholding. United States Holders that are required to establish their exempt status generally must provide such certification on IRS Form W-9.

Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Rather, any amount withheld under the backup withholding rules will be refundable or creditable against the United States Holder's United States federal income tax liability, provided the required information is timely furnished to the IRS. United States Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the application of the United States information reporting and backup withholding rules.

#### Foreign Financial Asset Reporting
Certain United States Holders are required to report their holdings of certain foreign financial assets, including our ADSs, if the aggregate value of all of these assets exceeds certain threshold amounts, subject to certain exceptions (including an exception for ADSs held in accounts maintained by certain financial institutions). Penalties can apply if United States Holders fail to satisfy such reporting requirements. United States Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the application of these reporting requirements on the ownership and disposition of our ADSs.

Not applicable.

#### 10.H. DOCUMENTS ON DISPLAY
Any statement in this Annual Report about any of our contracts or other documents is not necessarily complete. If the contract or document is filed as an exhibit to this Annual Report, the contract or document is deemed to modify the description contained in this Annual Report. You must review the exhibits themselves for a complete description of the contract or document.

We are subject to the informational requirements of the Exchange Act. Accordingly, we are required to file reports and other information with the SEC, including annual reports on Form 20-F and periodic reports on Form 6-K. The SEC maintains an Internet website that contains reports and other information about issuers, like us, that file electronically with the SEC. The address of that website is www.sec.gov. In addition, copies of all information and documents pertaining to press releases, media conferences, investor updates and presentations at analyst and investor presentation conferences can be downloaded from our website www.tremorinternational.com. The information contained on our website is not a part of this Form 20-F.

As a foreign private issuer, we are exempt under the Exchange Act from, among other things, the rules prescribing the furnishing and content of proxy statements, and our executive officers, directors and principal shareholders are exempt from the reporting and short-swing profit recovery provisions contained in Section 16 of the Exchange Act. In addition, we are not required under the Exchange Act to file periodic reports and financial statements with the SEC as frequently or as promptly as U.S. companies whose securities are registered under the Exchange Act. However, we furnish or make available to our shareholders certain reports including Annual Reports on Form 20-F, periodic reports on Form 6-K and other information, with the SEC pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC that apply to foreign private issuers.

#### 10.I. SUBSIDIARY INFORMATION
Not applicable.

#### ITEM 11: QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We are exposed to market risk in the ordinary course of our business. Market risk represents the risk of loss that may impact our financial position due to adverse changes in financial market prices and rates. Our market risk exposure is primarily a result of foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates, which are discussed in detail below. See Note 18f and 18g of our audited consolidated financial statements for further information about market risk sensitivity.

#### Interest rate risk
We believe that we have no significant exposure to interest rate risk as we have no significant long-term loans. However, our future interest income may fall short of expectations due to changes in market interest rates.

#### Foreign currency exchange risk
*Foreign currency transactions*

Transactions in foreign currencies are translated to the respective functional currencies of us and our subsidiaries at exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the reporting date are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rate on that date. The foreign currency gain or loss on monetary items is the difference between amortized cost in the functional currency at the beginning of the year, adjusted for effective interest and payments during the year, and the amortized cost in foreign currency translated at the exchange rate as of the end of the year.

Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies that are measured at fair value are retranslated to the functional currency at the exchange rate on the date that the fair value was determined. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rate on the date of the transaction.

*Foreign operations*

The assets and liabilities of foreign operations, including goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on acquisition, are translated to U.S. dollars at exchange rates at the reporting date. The income and expenses of foreign operations are translated to U.S. dollars at exchange rates at the dates of the transactions.

Foreign currency differences are recognized in other comprehensive income and are presented in equity.

---

As an ADS holder you will also be responsible to pay certain charges such as:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• taxes (including applicable interest and penalties) and other governmental charges;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the registration fees as may from time to time be in effect for the registration of ordinary shares on the share register and applicable
 to transfers of ordinary shares to or from the name of the custodian, the depositary bank or any nominees upon the making of deposits
 and withdrawals, respectively;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• certain cable, telex and facsimile transmission and delivery expenses;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the fees, expenses, spreads, taxes and other charges of the depositary bank and/or service providers (which may be a division, branch
 or affiliate of the depositary bank) in the conversion of foreign currency;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the reasonable and customary out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the depositary bank in connection with
 compliance with exchange control regulations and other regulatory requirements applicable to ordinary shares, ADSs and American Depositary
 Receipts ("ADRs"); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the fees, charges, costs and expenses incurred by the depositary bank, the custodian, or any nominee in connection with the ADR program.

ADS fees and charges for (i) the issuance of ADSs, and (ii) the cancellation of ADSs are charged to the person for whom the ADSs are issued (in the case of ADS issuances) and to the person for whom ADSs are cancelled (in the case of ADS cancellations). In the case of ADSs issued by the depositary bank into DTC, the ADS issuance and cancellation fees and charges may be deducted from distributions made through DTC, and may be charged to the DTC participant(s) receiving the ADSs being issued or The Depositary Trust Company ("DTC"), participant(s) holding the ADSs being cancelled, as the case may be, on behalf of the beneficial owner(s) and will be charged by the DTC participant(s) to the account of the applicable beneficial owner(s) in accordance with the procedures and practices of the DTC participants as in effect at the time. ADS fees and charges in respect of distributions and the ADS service fee are charged to the holders as of the applicable ADS record date. In the case of distributions of cash, the amount of the applicable ADS fees and charges is deducted from the funds being distributed. In the case of (i) distributions other than cash and (ii) the ADS service fee, holders as of the ADS record date will be invoiced for the amount of the ADS fees and charges and such ADS fees and charges may be deducted from distributions made to holders of ADSs. For ADSs held through DTC, the ADS fees and charges for distributions other than cash and the ADS service fee may be deducted from distributions made through DTC, and may be charged to the DTC participants in accordance with the procedures and practices prescribed by DTC and the DTC participants in turn charge the amount of such ADS fees and charges to the beneficial owners for whom they hold ADSs. In the case of (i) registration of ADS transfers, the ADS transfer fee will be payable by the ADS Holder whose ADSs are being transferred or by the person to whom the ADSs are transferred, and (ii) conversion of ADSs of one series for ADSs of another series, the ADS conversion fee will be payable by the Holder whose ADSs are converted or by the person to whom the converted ADSs are delivered.

In the event of refusal to pay the depositary bank fees, the depositary bank may, under the terms of the deposit agreement, refuse the requested service until payment is received or may set off the amount of the depositary bank fees from any distribution to be made to the ADS holder. Note that the fees and charges you may be required to pay may vary over time and may be changed by us and by the depositary bank. You will receive prior notice of such changes. The depositary bank may reimburse us for certain expenses incurred by us in respect of the ADR program, by making available a portion of the ADS fees charged in respect of the ADR program or otherwise, upon such terms and conditions as we and the depositary bank agree from time to time.

The additional information called for by this item is set forth in Exhibit 2.1 to this Annual Report on Form 20-F.

#### ITEM 14: MATERIAL MODIFICATIONS TO THE RIGHTS OF SECURITY HOLDERS AND USE OF PROCEEDS
None.

#### ITEM 15: CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

#### Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company's reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Any controls and procedures can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures. Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2022. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of December 31, 2022, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

#### Management's Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act as a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company's assets that could have a material effect on the audited consolidated financial statements. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect material misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Our management conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria set forth in "Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013)" issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this assessment, our management concluded that, as of December 31, 2022, our internal control over financial reporting was effective.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting regarding internal control over financial reporting firm because we are currently an emerging growth company in accordance with the Exchange Act.

#### Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the period covered by this Annual Report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

#### ITEM 16: [RESERVED]

Our board of directors has determined that Neil Jones qualifies as an audit committee financial expert, as defined by the rules of the SEC and has the requisite financial experience defined by the Nasdaq rules. In addition, Mr. Jones is independent as such term is defined in Rule 10A-3(b)(1) under the Exchange Act and under the listing standards of the Nasdaq Global Market. See Item 6. "*Directors, Senior Management and Employees⸺6.C. Board Practices*" of this Annual Report.

#### 16.B. CODE OF ETHICS
We have adopted a Code of Ethics and Conduct that applies to all our employees, officers and directors, including our principal executive, principal financial and principal accounting officers. Our Code of Ethics and Conduct addresses, among other things, competition and fair dealing, conflicts of interest, financial matters and external reporting, company funds and assets, confidentiality and corporate opportunity requirements and the process for reporting violations of the Code of Ethics and Conduct, employee misconduct, conflicts of interest or other violations. A copy of the code is delivered to every employee of the Company and all of its subsidiaries and is available to investors and others on our website at investors.tremorinternational.com/governance/governance-overview or by contacting our investor relations department. Our Code of Ethics and Conduct is intended to meet the definition of "code of ethics" under Item 16.B. of Form 20-F.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; "Audit fees" are the aggregate fees billed for professional services rendered for the audit of our annual financial statements or services that are normally provided by the accountant in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; "Audit-related fees" are the aggregate fees billed for assurance and related services that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit and are not reported under audit fees. These fees primarily consist of accounting consultations regarding the accounting treatment of matters that occur in the regular course of business, implications of new accounting pronouncements and other accounting issues that occur from time to time.

#### Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures
The advance approval of our audit committee or members thereof, to whom approval authority has been delegated, is required for all audit and non-audit services provided by our auditors.

Our audit committee has adopted a pre-approval policy for the engagement of our independent accountant to perform certain audit and non-audit services. Pursuant to this policy, which is designed to assure that such engagements do not impair the independence of our auditors, the audit committee pre-approves annually a catalog of specific audit and non-audit services in the categories of audit service, audit-related service and tax services that may be performed by our independent accountants.

#### ITEM 16.E. PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES BY THE ISSUER AND AFFILIATED PURCHASERS.
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; On February 23, 2022, our board of directors authorized a repurchase plan under which up to $75.0 million ordinary shares could be purchased on AIM. By September 30, 2022, the Company completed the $75.0 million share repurchase program, repurchasing a total of 13,792,485 ordinary shares representing approximately 9% of shares outstanding at an average price of 437.54 pence, for a total investment of approximately £60.5 million, or $75.0 million, including fees.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; On September 20, 2022, our board of directors authorized a new share repurchase program, authorizing the purchase of up to $20.0 million of its ordinary shares on AIM. The new repurchase plan commenced on October 1, 2022, and will continue until April 1, 2023, or until it has been completed and the program may be suspended, modified, or discontinued at any time at the Company's discretion, subject to applicable law. From October 1, 2022 through December 31, 2022, the Company repurchased under such plan a total of 3,114,310 ordinary shares at an average price of 304.48 pence, for a total investment of approximately £9.5 million, or $11.3 million, including fees. All share repurchases are made in accordance with all applicable securities laws and regulations.

------

During 2022 under the prior repurchase plan and the new repurchase plan, we used $86.3 million to repurchase 16,906,795 ordinary shares on AIM pursuant to the publicly announced share repurchase programs, representing approximately 11% of shares outstanding.

#### 16.F. CHANGE IN REGISTRANT'S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT
None.

#### 16.G. CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
As a foreign private issuer, we are permitted to comply with Israeli corporate governance practices instead of the Nasdaq Stock Market requirements, *provided* that we disclose those Nasdaq Stock Market requirements with which we do not comply and the equivalent Israeli requirement that we follow instead.

We rely on this "foreign private issuer exemption" with respect to the quorum requirement for shareholder meetings. As permitted under the Companies Law, pursuant to our amended and restated articles of association, the quorum required for an ordinary meeting of shareholders consists of at least two shareholders present in person, by proxy or by other voting instrument in accordance with the Companies Law who hold at least 25% of the voting power of our shares (and if the meeting is adjourned for a lack of quorum, the quorum for such adjourned meeting will be, subject to certain exceptions, any number of shareholders), instead of 33-1/3% of the issued share capital as required under the corporate governance rules of Nasdaq. We otherwise comply with the rules generally applicable to U.S. domestic companies listed on Nasdaq. We may, however, in the future decide to use the "foreign private issuer exemption" and opt out of some or all of the other corporate governance rules.

See Item 6.C. "*Board Practices.*"

Not applicable.

#### Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
*To the Shareholders and Board of Directors*

*Tremor International Ltd.*

*Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements*

We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of financial position of Tremor International Ltd. and its subsidiaries (the Group) as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the related consolidated statements of operation and other comprehensive income, change in equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2022 and the related notes (collectively, the consolidated financial statements). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Group as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2022, in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.

Basis for Opinion

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Group's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Group in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Group is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Group's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Information about assumptions made by the Group with respect to the future and other reasons for uncertainty with respect to estimates that have a significant risk of resulting in a material adjustment to carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the next financial year are included in Note 6, on leases, with respect to determining the lease term and determining the discount rate of a lease liability, in Note 7, on intangible assets, with respect to the accounting of software development capitalization and impairment testing for goodwill, in Note 4, on Income Tax, with respect to uncertain tax position, in Note 20, on subsidiaries, with respect to business combination and in Note 18 on investments in shares .

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**e.** **Determination of fair value:** 

Preparation of the financial statements requires the Group to determine the fair value of certain assets and liabilities. When determining the fair value of an asset or liability, the Group uses observable market data as much as possible. There are three levels of fair value measurements in the fair value hierarchy that are based on the data used in the measurement, as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Level 3: inputs that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

Further information about the assumptions that were used to determine fair value is included in the following notes:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Note 17, on share-based compensation;

| **NOTE 3:** | **SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES** |

---

The accounting policies set out below have been applied consistently for all periods presented in these consolidated financial statements and have been applied consistently by the Group.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**a.** **Basis of consolidation:** 

1) Business combinations:

The Group implements the acquisition method to all business combinations. The acquisition date is the date on which the acquirer obtains control over the acquiree. Control exists when the Group is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the acquiree and it has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the acquiree. Substantive rights held by the Group and others are taken into account when assessing control.

The Group recognizes goodwill on acquisition according to the fair value of the consideration transferred less the net amount of the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed.

The consideration transferred includes the fair value of the assets transferred to the previous owners of the acquiree, the liabilities incurred by the acquirer to the previous owners of the acquiree and equity instruments that were issued by the Group. In addition, the consideration transferred includes the fair value of any contingent consideration. After the acquisition date, the Group recognizes changes in the fair value of contingent consideration classified as a financial liability in the statements of operation and other comprehensive income.

If share-based compensation awards (replacement awards) are required to be exchanged for awards held by the acquiree's employees (acquiree's awards) and relate to past services, then all or a portion of the amount of the acquirer's replacement awards is included in measuring the consideration transferred in the business combination. This determination is based on the market-based value of the replacement awards compared with the market-based value of the acquiree's awards and the extent to which the replacement awards relate to past and/or future service. The unvested portion of the replacement award that is attributed to post-acquisition services is recognized as a compensation cost following the business combination.

Costs associated with the acquisitions that were incurred by the acquirer in the business combination such as: finder's fees, advisory, legal, valuation and other professional or consulting fees are expensed in the period the services are received.

2) Subsidiaries:

Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Group. The financial statements of the subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date that control commenced, until the date that control is lost. The accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed when necessary to align them with the policies adopted by the Group.

3) Transactions eliminated on consolidation:

Intra-group balances and transactions, and any unrealized income and expenses arising from intra-group transactions, are eliminated in preparing the consolidated financial statements.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**b.** **Foreign currency:** 

1) Foreign currency transactions:

Transactions in foreign currencies are translated to the respective functional currencies of the Group at exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the reporting date are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rate on that date. The foreign currency gain or loss on monetary items is the difference between amortized cost in the functional currency at the beginning of the year, adjusted for effective interest and payments during the year, and the amortized cost in foreign currency translated at the exchange rate as of the end of the year.

Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies that are measured at fair value are retranslated to the functional currency at the exchange rate on the date that the fair value was determined. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rate on the date of the transaction.

2) Foreign operations:

The assets and liabilities of foreign operations, including goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on acquisition, are translated to USD at exchange rates at the reporting date. The income and expenses of foreign operations are translated to USD at exchange rates at the dates of the transactions.

Foreign currency differences are recognized in other comprehensive income and are presented in equity.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**c.** **Financial instruments:** 

1) Non-derivative financial assets ***Initial recognition and measurement of financial assets*** The Group initially recognizes trade receivables and debt instruments issued on the date that they are created. All other financial assets are recognized initially on the trade date at which the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. A financial asset is initially measured at fair value plus transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issuance of the financial asset. A trade receivable without a significant financing component is initially measured at the transaction price. Receivables originating from contract assets are initially measured at the carrying amount of the contract assets on the date classification was changed from contract asset to receivables.

***Derecognition of financial assets***

Financial assets are derecognized when the contractual rights of the Group to the cash flows from the asset expire, or the Group transfers the rights to receive the contractual cash flows on the financial asset in a transaction in which substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are transferred. When the Group retains substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset, it continues to recognize the financial asset.

***Classification of financial assets into categories and the accounting treatment of each category***

Financial assets are classified at initial recognition to one of the following measurement categories: amortized cost; fair value through other comprehensive income – investments in debt instruments; fair value through other comprehensive income – investments in equity instruments; or fair value through profit or loss.

Financial assets are not reclassified in subsequent periods unless, and only if, the Group changes its business model for the management of financial debt assets, in which case the affected financial debt assets are reclassified at the beginning of the period following the change in the business model.

A financial asset is measured at amortized cost if it meets both of the following conditions and is not designated at fair value through profit or loss:

- It is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets so as to collect contractual cash flows; and

- The contractual terms of the financial asset give rise to cash flows representing solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding on specified dates.

A debt instrument is measured at fair value through other comprehensive income if it meets both of the following conditions and is not designated at fair value through profit or loss:

- It is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets; and

- The contractual terms of the debt instrument give rise to cash flows representing solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding on specified dates.<br>All financial assets not classified as measured at amortized cost or fair value through other comprehensive income as described above, as well as financial assets designated at fair value through profit or loss, are measured at fair value through profit or loss. On initial recognition, the Group designates financial assets at fair value through profit or loss if doing so eliminates or significantly reduces an accounting mismatch that would otherwise arise.<br>The Group has balances of trade and other receivables and deposits that are held within a business model whose objective is collecting contractual cash flows. The contractual cash flows of these financial assets represent solely payments of principal and interest that reflects consideration for the time value of money and the credit risk. Accordingly, these financial assets are measured at amortized cost.<br>

***Subsequent measurement and gains and losses***<br>*Financial assets at amortized cost*<br>These assets are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. The amortized cost is reduced by impairment losses. Interest income, foreign exchange gains and losses and impairment are recognized in profit or loss. Any gain or loss on derecognition is recognized in profit or loss.<br>*Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss*<br>These assets are subsequently measured at fair value. Net gains and losses, including any interest income or dividend income, are recognized in profit or loss (other than certain derivatives designated as hedging instruments).<br>

2) Non-derivative financial liabilities Non-derivative financial liabilities include trade and other payables, finance lease liability and other long term liabilities. ***Initial recognition of financial liabilities*** The Group initially recognizes debt securities issued on the date that they originated. All other financial liabilities are recognized initially on the trade date at which the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. ***Subsequent measurement of financial liabilities*** Financial liabilities (other than financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss) are recognized initially at fair value less any directly attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition these financial liabilities are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. Transaction costs directly attributable to an expected issuance of an instrument that will be classified as a financial liability are recognized as an asset in the framework of deferred expenses in the statement of financial position. These transaction costs are deducted from the financial liability upon its initial recognition or are amortized as financing expenses in the statement of income when the issuance is no longer expected to occur. ***Derecognition of financial liabilities*** Financial liabilities are derecognized when the obligation of the Group, as specified in the agreement, expires or when it is discharged or cancelled. ***Offset of financial instruments*** Financial assets and liabilities are offset, and the net amount presented in the statement of financial position when, and only when, the Group currently has a legal right to offset the amounts and intends either to settle on a net basis or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

3) Derivative financial instruments: ***Economic hedges*** Hedge accounting is not applied to derivative instruments that economically hedge financial assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies. Changes in the fair value of such derivatives are recognized in profit or loss under financing income or expenses. 

4) Share capital: ***Ordinary shares*** Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of ordinary shares and share options are recognized as a deduction from equity, net of any tax effects. Incremental costs directly attributable to an expected issuance of an instrument that will be classified as an equity instrument are recognized as an asset in deferred expenses in the statement of financial position. The costs are deducted from equity upon the initial recognition of the equity instruments or are amortized as financing expenses in the statement of income when the issuance is no longer expected to take place. ***Treasury shares*** When share capital recognized as equity is repurchased by the Group, the amount of the consideration paid, which includes directly attributable costs, net of any tax effects, is recognized as a deduction from equity. Repurchased shares are classified as a deduction in Share Premium. When treasury shares are sold or reissued subsequently, the amount received is recognized as an increase in equity, and the resulting surplus on the transaction is carried to share premium, whereas a deficit on the transaction is deducted from retained earnings. 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**d.** **Fixed Assets:** Fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation. The cost of fixed assets includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset. Depreciation is provided on all property and equipment at rates calculated to write each asset down to its residual value (assumed to be nil), using the straight-line method, over its expected useful life as follows:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
|  | Years |
| Computers and servers | 3-5  |
| Office furniture and equipment | 3-17 |
| Leasehold improvements | The shorter of the lease term and the useful life |

---

An asset is depreciated from the date it is ready for use, meaning the date it reaches the location and condition required for it to operate in the manner intended by management.<br>Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at the end of each reporting year and adjusted if appropriate.<br>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**e.** **Intangible assets:** 

1) Software development: Expenditure on research activities, undertaken with the prospect of gaining new scientific or technical knowledge and understanding, is recognized in profit or loss when incurred. Development activities involve a plan or design for the production of new or substantially improved products and processes. Development expenditure is capitalized only if development costs can be measured reliably, the product or process is technically and commercially feasible, future economic benefits are probable, and the Group has the intention and sufficient resources to complete development and to use or sell the asset. The expenditure capitalized in respect of development activities includes the cost of materials, direct labor and overhead costs that are directly attributable to preparing the asset for its intended use, and capitalized borrowing costs. Other development expenditure is recognized in profit or loss as incurred. In subsequent periods, capitalized development expenditure is measured at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses. Where these criteria are not met, development costs are charged to the statement of operation and other comprehensive income as incurred. The estimated useful lives of developed software are three years. Amortization methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at the end of each reporting year and adjusted if appropriate. 

2) Acquired software: Acquired software licenses are capitalized on the basis of the costs incurred to acquire and bring to use the specific software licenses. These costs are amortized over their estimated useful lives using the straight-line method. Costs associated with maintaining software programs are recognized as an expense as incurred. 

3) Goodwill: Goodwill that arises upon the acquisition of subsidiaries is presented as part of intangible assets. For information on measurement of goodwill at initial recognition, see Note 3a(1). In subsequent periods goodwill is measured at cost less accumulated impairment losses. The Group has identified its entire operation as a single cash generating unit (CGU). According to management assessment as of December 31, 2022, no impairment in respect to goodwill has been recorded.

4) Other intangible assets: Other intangible assets that are acquired by the Group, which have finite useful lives, are measured at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses.

5) Amortization: Amortization is a systematic allocation of the amortizable amount of an intangible asset over its useful life. The amortizable amount is the cost of the asset less its accumulated residual value. Internally generated intangible assets, such as software development costs, are not systematically amortized as long as they are not available for use, i.e., they are not yet on site or in working condition for their intended use. Goodwill is not systematically amortized as well but is tested for impairment at least once a year. The Group examines the amortization methods, useful life and accumulated residual values of its intangible assets at least once a year (usually at the end of each reporting period) in order to determine whether events and circumstances continue to support the decision that the intangible asset has an indefinite useful life. Amortization is recognized in the statements of operation and other comprehensive income on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the intangible assets from the date they are available for use, since this method most closely reflects the expected pattern of consumption of the future economic benefits embodied in each asset, such as development costs, are tested for impairment at least once a year until such date as they are available for use. The estimated useful lives for the current and comparative periods are as follows: 

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| Trademarks | 1.75-5 years |
| Software (developed and acquired) | 3 years |
| Customer relationships | 3-5.75 years |
| Technology | 3-5.25 years |

---

Amortization methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at the end of each reporting year and adjusted if appropriate. <br>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**f.** **Impairment:** **Non-derivative financial assets *Financial assets, contract assets and lease receivables* The Group recognizes a provision for expected credit losses in respect of: - Financial assets at amortized cost; - Lease receivables. The Group has elected to measure the provision for expected credit losses in respect of financial assets and lease receivables at an amount equal to the lifetime credit losses of the instrument. When determining whether the credit risk of a financial asset has increased significantly since initial recognition, and when estimating expected credit losses, the Group considers reasonable and supportable information that is relevant and available. Such information includes quantitative and qualitative information, and an analysis, based on the Group's past experience and informed credit assessment, and it includes forward looking information. *Measurement of expected credit losses* Expected credit losses are a probability-weighted estimate of credit losses. Credit losses are measured as the present value of the difference between the cash flows due to the Group in accordance with the contract and the cash flows that the Group expects to receive. With respect to other debt assets, the Group measures the provision for expected credit losses at an amount equal to the full lifetime expected credit losses, other than the provisions hereunder that are measured at an amount equal to the 12-month expected credit losses:** 

- Debt instruments that are determined to have low credit risk at the reporting date; and

- Other debt instruments and deposits, for which credit risk has not increased significantly since initial recognition.

 **Presentation of provision for expected credit losses in the statement of financial position<br>Provisions for expected credit losses of financial assets measured at amortized cost and are deducted from the gross carrying amount of the financial assets.<br>Write-off<br>The gross carrying amount of a financial asset is written off when the Group does not have reasonable expectations of recovering a financial asset at its entirety or a portion thereof. This is usually the case when the Group determines that the debtor does not have assets or sources of income that may generate sufficient cash flows for paying the amounts being written off. However, financial assets that are written off could still be subject to enforcement activities in order to comply with the Group's procedures for recovery of amounts due. Write-off constitutes a de-recognition event.**<br>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**g.** **Impairment of non-financial assets:** **Non-financial assets that are subject to amortization are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which an asset's carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset's fair value less costs to sell and value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash flows (cash-generating units). Non-financial assets that were subject to impairment are reviewed for possible reversal of the impairment recognized in respect thereof at each financial reporting date.** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**h.** **Restricted Cash and Deposit:** **The Company classifies certain restricted cash and deposit balances within other current assets on the consolidated statement of financial position based upon the term of the remaining restrictions. On December 31, 2022, and 2021 the Company had restricted cash and deposit of USD 1,966 thousand and USD 2,061 thousand, respectively. These restricted cash and deposits are not available for withdraw by the Company.** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**i.** **Share Based Compensation:** **Compensation expense related to stock options, restricted stock units and performance stock units. The Company's employee stock purchase plan is measured and recognized in the consolidated financial statements based on the fair value of the awards granted. The fair value of each option award is estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. Stock-based compensation expense related to stock options and restricted stock is recognized over the requisite service periods of the awards. Determining the fair value of stock options awards requires judgment. The Company's use of the Black-Scholes option pricing model requires the input of subjective assumptions. The assumptions used in the Company's option-pricing model represent management's best estimates. These estimates involve inherent uncertainties and the application of management's judgment. These assumptions and estimates are as follows: Risk-Free Interest Rate. The risk-free interest rate is based on the yields of U.S. Treasury securities with maturities approximating the expected term of the awards. Expected Term. The expected term of an award is calculated based on the vesting date and the expiration date of the award. Volatility. The Company determined the price volatility based on daily price observations over a period equivalent to the expected term of the award. Dividend Yield. The dividend yield assumption is based on the Company's history and current expectations of dividend payouts. Fair Value of Common Stock. The fair value of common stock is based on the closing price of the Company's common stock on the grant date.**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**j.** **Employee benefits:** 

1) Post-employment benefits: The Group's main post-employment benefit plan is under section 14 to the Severance Pay Law ("Section 14"), which is accounted for as a defined contribution plan. In addition, for certain employees, the Group has an additional immaterial plan that is accounted for as a defined benefit plan. These plans are usually financed by deposits with insurance companies or with funds managed by a trustee.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;a) Defined contribution plans:

A defined contribution plan is a post-employment benefit plan under which an entity pays fixed contributions into a separate entity and has no legal or constructive obligation to pay further amounts. Obligations for contributions to defined contribution pension plans are recognized as an expense in the statement of comprehensive income in the periods during which related services are rendered by employees.

According to Section 14, the payment of monthly deposits by a Company into recognized severance and pension funds or insurance policies releases it from any additional severance obligation to the employees that have entered into agreements with the Company pursuant to such Section 14. The Company has entered into agreements with a majority of its employees in order to implement Section 14 and as such, no additional liability with respect to such employees exist.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;b) Defined benefit plans:

A defined benefit plan is a post-employment benefit plan other than a defined contribution plan. The Group's net obligation in respect of defined benefit pension plans is calculated separately for each plan by estimating the amount of future benefit that employees have earned in return for their service in the current and prior periods. That benefit is discounted to determine its present value, and the fair value of any plan assets is deducted. The Group determines the net interest expense (income) on the net defined benefit liability (asset) for the period by applying the discount rate used to measure the defined benefit obligation at the beginning of the annual period to the then-net defined benefit liability (asset).

2) Short-term benefits:

Short-term employee benefit obligations are measured on an undiscounted basis and are expensed as the related service is provided or upon the actual absence of the employee when the benefit is not accumulated (such as maternity leave).

A liability is recognized for the amount expected to be paid under short-term cash bonus or profit-sharing plans if the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount as a result of past service provided by the employee and the obligation can be estimated reliably.

The employee benefits are classified, for measurement purposes, as short-term benefits or as other long-term benefits depending on when the Group expects the benefits to be wholly settled.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**k.** **Provisions** **A provision is recognized if, as a result of a past event, the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation that can be estimated reliably, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation. Provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability without adjustment for the Company's credit risk. The carrying amount of the provision is adjusted each period to reflect the time that has passed and the amount of the adjustment is recognized as a financing expense. The Company recognizes a reimbursement asset if, and only if, it is virtually certain that the reimbursement will be received if the Company settles the obligation. The amount recognized in respect of the reimbursement does not exceed the amount of the provision. **Restructuring** A provision for restructuring is recognized when the Group has approved a detailed and formal restructuring plan, and the restructuring either has commenced or has been announced publicly. The provision includes direct expenditures caused by the restructuring and necessary for the restructuring, and which are not associated with the continuing activities of the Group. **Onerous contracts** A provision for onerous contracts is recognized when the unavoidable costs of a contract exceed the benefits expected to be received from the contract. The provision is measured at the present value of the lower of the expected cost of terminating the contract and the unavoidable costs (net of the revenues) of continuing with the contract. Unavoidable costs are costs the Group cannot avoid as they are subject to a contract.** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**l.** **Revenue recognition:** 

The Company recognizes revenue through the following five-step model:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) Identifying the contract with customer.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) Identifying distinct performance obligations in the contract.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) Determining the transaction price.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4) Allocating the transaction price to distinct performance obligations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(5) Recognizing revenue when the performance obligations are satisfied.

The Company generates revenue from transactions where it provides access to a platform for the purchase and sale of digital advertising inventory.

Its customers are both ad buyers, including brands and agencies, and digital publishers.

The Company generates revenue through platform fees that are tailored to fit the customer's specific utilization of its solutions and include: (i) a percentage of spend, (ii) flat fees and (iii) fixed costs per mile ("CPM"). CPM refers to a payment option in which customers pay a price for every 1,000 impressions an advertisement receives.

The Company maintains agreements with each publisher and buyer in the form of written service agreements, which set out the terms of the relationship, including payment terms and access to the Company's platform.

Publishers provide digital advertising inventory to the Company's platform in the form of advertising requests, or ad request. When the Company receives ad requests from a publisher, it send bid requests to buyers, which enable buyers to bid on sellers' digital advertising inventory according to a predefined set of parameters (e.g., demographics, intent, location, etc.). Winning bids create advertising, or paid impressions, for the publisher to present to the buyers.

The Company generates revenue from its Programmatic and Performance activities. Programmatic revenue is derived from the end-to-end platform of programmatic advertising, which uses software and algorithms to match buyers and sellers of digital advertising in a technology-driven marketplace. Performance revenue is derived from non-core activities, consisting of mobile-based activities that help brands reach their users.

Following the full integration with RhythmOne and the acquisition of Unruly in 2020, the Company positions itself as a stronger digital advertising platform in the marketplace with an integrated, end-to-end platform connecting the DSP and SSP sides of the business in a unified platform. The Company concluded that its Programmatic activity (i) does not have manual control over the process, (ii) the Company is not primarily responsible for fulfillment, (iii) the Company has no inventory risk and (iv) the Company obtains only momentary a title to the advertising space offered via the end-to-end platform.

As a result, the Company reports its Programmatic business, tech stack, features, business models and activity as an agent and therefore presented revenue from Programmatic on a net basis.

For the Performance activity the Company is the primary obligor to provide the services and, as such, revenue is presented on a gross basis. Management is focused on driving growth with the Programmatic activity through the end-to-end platform, while the Performance activity is declining over time.

The Company estimates and records reduction to revenue for volume discounts based on expected volume during the incentive term.

The Company generally invoices buyers at the end of each month for the full purchase price of ad impressions monetized in that month. Accounts receivables are recorded at the amount of gross billings for the amount it is responsible to collect and accounts payable are recorded at the net amount payable to publishers. Accordingly, both accounts receivable and accounts payable appear large in relation to revenue reported on a net basis.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**m.** **Classification of expenses** 

#### Cost of revenue
Cost of revenue includes expenses related to third-party hosting fees and the cost of data purchased from third parties, traffic acquisition costs, data and hosting that are directly attributable to revenue generated by the Company (see Note 13).

#### Research and development
Research and development expenses consist primarily of compensation and related costs for personnel responsible for the research and development of new and existing products and services. Where required, development expenditures are capitalized in accordance with the Company's standard internal capitalized development policy in accordance with IAS 38 (also see Note 3e(1)). All research costs are expensed when incurred.

#### Selling and marketing
Selling and marketing expenses consist primarily of compensation and related costs for personnel engaged in customer service, sales, and sales support functions, as well as advertising and promotional expenditures.

#### General and administrative
General and administrative expenses consist primarily of compensation and related costs for personnel, and include costs related to the Company's facilities, finance, human resources, information technology, legal organizations and fees for professional services. Professional services are principally comprised of outside legal, and information technology consulting and outsourcing services that are not directly related to other operational expenses.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**n.** **Financing income and expenses:** 

Financing income mainly comprises foreign currency gains and interest income.

Financing expenses comprises of exchange rate differences, interest and bank fees, interest on loans and other expenses.

Foreign currency gains and losses on financial assets and financial liabilities are reported on a net basis as either financing income or financing expenses depending on whether foreign currency movements are in a net gain or net loss position.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**o.** **Income tax expense:** 

Income tax comprises current and deferred tax. Current tax and deferred tax are recognized in the statement of comprehensive income except to the extent that they relate to a business combination.

#### Current taxes
Current tax is the expected tax payable (or receivable) on the taxable income for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.

#### Deferred taxes
Deferred tax is recognized in respect of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes.

Deferred tax is not recognized for the following temporary differences:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The initial recognition of goodwill; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Differences relating to investments in subsidiaries to the extent it is probable that they will not reverse in the foreseeable future, either by way of selling the investment or by way of distributing taxable dividends in respect of the investment.

The measurement of deferred tax reflects the tax consequences that would follow the manner in which the Group expects, at the end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities. Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to be applied to temporary differences when they reverse, based on the laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date.

A deferred tax asset is recognized for tax benefits and deductible temporary differences, to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which they can be utilized. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realized.

#### Offset of deferred tax assets and liabilities
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax liabilities and assets, and they relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority.

#### Uncertain tax positions
A provision for uncertain tax positions, including additional tax and interest expenses, is recognized when it is more likely than not that the Group will have to use its economic resources to pay the obligation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**p.** **Leases:** 

#### Determining whether an arrangement contains a lease
On the inception date of the lease, the Group determines whether the arrangement is a lease or contains a lease, while examining if it conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. In its assessment of whether an arrangement conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset, the Group assesses whether it has the following two rights throughout the lease term:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The right to obtain substantially all the economic benefits from use of the identified asset; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The right to direct the identified asset's use.

For lease contracts that contain non-lease components, such as services or maintenance, that are related to a lease component, the Group elected to account for the contract as a single lease component without separating the components.

#### Leased assets and lease liabilities
Contracts that award the Group control over the use of a leased asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration, are accounted for as leases. Upon initial recognition, the Group recognizes a liability at the present value of the balance of future lease payments (these payments do not include certain variable lease payments), and concurrently recognizes a right-of-use asset at the same amount of the lease liability, adjusted for any prepaid or accrued lease payments or provision for impairment, plus initial direct costs incurred in respect of the lease.

Since the interest rate implicit in the Group's leases is not readily determinable, the incremental borrowing rate of the lessee is used. Subsequent to initial recognition, the right-of-use asset is accounted for using the cost model and depreciated over the shorter of the lease term or useful life of the asset.

#### The lease term
The lease term is the non-cancellable period of the lease plus periods covered by an extension or termination option if it is reasonably certain that the lessee will or will not exercise the option, respectively.

#### Variable lease payments
Variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, are initially measured using the index or rate existing at the commencement of the lease and are included in the measurement of the lease liability. When the cash flows of future lease payments change as the result of a change in an index or a rate, the balance of the liability is adjusted against the right-of-use asset.

Other variable lease payments that are not included in the measurement of the lease liability are recognized in profit or loss in the period in which the event or condition that triggers payment occurs.

#### Depreciation of right-of-use asset
After lease commencement, a right-of-use asset is measured on a cost basis less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses and is adjusted for re-measurements of the lease liability. Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the useful life or contractual lease period, whichever earlier, as follows:

☐ Buildings 1-8 years <br> ☐ Data centers 1-5.5 years

#### Reassessment of lease liability
Upon the occurrence of a significant event or a significant change in circumstances that is under the control of the Group and had an effect on the decision whether it is reasonably certain that the Group will exercise an option, which was not included before in the lease term, or will not exercise an option, which was previously included in the lease term, the Group re-measures the lease liability according to the revised leased payments using a new discount rate. The change in the carrying amount of the liability is recognized against the right-of-use asset, or recognized in profit or loss if the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset was reduced to zero.

#### Lease modifications
When a lease modification increases the scope of the lease by adding a right to use one or more underlying assets, and the consideration for the lease increased by an amount commensurate with the stand-alone price for the increase in scope and any appropriate adjustments to that stand-alone price to reflect the contract's circumstances, the Group accounts for the modification as a separate lease.

In all other cases, on the initial date of the lease modification, the Group allocates the consideration in the modified contract to the contract components, determines the revised lease term and measures the lease liability by discounting the revised lease payments using a revised discount rate.

For lease modifications that decrease the scope of the lease, the Group recognizes a decrease in the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset in order to reflect the partial or full cancellation of the lease, and recognizes in profit or loss a profit (or loss) that equals the difference between the decrease in the right-of-use asset and re-measurement of the lease liability.

For other lease modifications, the Group re-measures the lease liability against the right-of-use asset.

#### Subleases
In leases where the Group subleases the underlying asset, the Group examines whether the sublease is a finance lease or operating lease with respect to the right-of-use received from the head lease. The Group examined the subleases existing on the date of initial application based on the remaining contractual terms at that date.

The Group presents basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) data for its ordinary shares. Basic EPS is calculated by dividing the profit or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year, adjusted for treasury shares. Diluted EPS is determined by adjusting the profit or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Company and the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding, after adjustment for treasury shares, for the effects of all dilutive potential ordinary shares, which comprise restricted stock.

According to the Amendment, a liability will be classified as non-current when the entity has the right to defer settlement for at least 12 months after the reporting period, and it "has substance" and is in existence at the end of the reporting period.

According to the subsequent amendment, as published in October 2022, covenants with which the entity must comply after the reporting date, do not affect classification of the liability as current or non-current. Additionally, the subsequent amendment adds disclosure requirements for liabilities subject to covenants within 12 months after the reporting date, such as disclosure regarding the nature of the covenants, the date they need to be complied with and facts and circumstances that indicate the entity may have difficulty complying with the covenants.

Furthermore, the Amendment clarifies that the conversion option of a liability will affect its classification as current or non-current, other than when the conversion option is recognized as equity.

According to the amendment companies must provide disclosure of their material accounting policies rather than their significant accounting policies. Pursuant to the amendment, accounting policy information is material if, when considered with other information disclosed in the financial statements, it can be reasonably be expected to influence decisions that the users of the financial statements make on the basis of those financial statements.

The amendment to IAS 1 also clarifies that accounting policy information is expected to be material if, without it, the users of the financial statements would be unable to understand other material information in the financial statements. The amendment also clarifies that immaterial accounting policy information need not be disclosed.

The Amendment and subsequent amendment are effective for reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2024, with earlier application being permitted. The Amendment and subsequent amendment are applicable retrospectively, including an amendment to comparative data.

The Company is examining the effects of the Amendment on the financial statements with no plans to early adopt.

**Amendment to IAS 12, *Income Taxes****: **Deferred Tax related to Assets and Liabilities arising from a Single Transaction***

The Amendment narrows the scope of the exemption from recognizing deferred taxes as a result of temporary differences created at the initial recognition of assets and/or liabilities, so that it does not apply to transactions that give rise to equal and offsetting temporary differences.

As a result, companies will need to recognize a deferred tax asset or a deferred tax liability for these temporary differences at the initial recognition of transactions that give rise to equal and offsetting temporary differences, such as lease transactions and provisions for decommissioning and restoration.

The amendment clarifies the accounting treatment of variable payments of a seller-lessee in a sale and leaseback transaction. According to the amendment, a seller-lessee shall include estimates of variable lease payments upon the initial measurement of the lease liability, and subsequent to initial recognition, it shall apply the subsequent measurement requirements to the lease liability, in a way that it does not recognize any gain or loss that relates to the right-of-use it retains.

The Amendment is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023, by amending the opening balance of the retained earnings or adjusting a different component of equity in the period the Amendment was first adopted.

The Group is examining the effects of the amendment on the financial statements with no plans for early adoption.

1) Corporate tax rate

Taxable income of the Israeli parent is subject to the Israeli corporate tax at the rate of 23% in the years 2022, 2021 and 2020.

The Israeli parliament enacted a reform to the Investment Law, effective January 2011. According to the reform, a flat rate tax applies to companies eligible for the "Preferred Enterprise" status. In order to be eligible for Preferred Enterprise status, a company must meet minimum requirements to establish that it contributes to the country's economic growth and is a competitive factor for the gross domestic product.

On December 22, 2016, the Knesset plenum passed the Economic Efficiency Law (Legislative Amendments for Achieving Budget Objectives in the Years 2017 and 2018) – 2016, by which the Encouragement Law was also amended (hereinafter: "the Amendment"). The Amendment added new tax benefit tracks for a "preferred technological enterprise" and a "special preferred technological enterprise" that awards reduced tax rates to a technological industrial enterprise for the purpose of encouraging activity relating to the development of qualifying intangible assets.

Preferred technological income that meets the conditions required in the law, will be subject to a reduced corporate tax rate of 12%, and if the preferred technological enterprise is located in Development Area A to a tax rate of 7.5%. The Amendment is effective as from January 1, 2017.

The Amendment also provides that no tax will apply to a dividend distributed out of preferred income to a shareholder that is an Israeli resident company. A tax rate of 20% shall apply to a dividend distributed out of preferred income and preferred technological income, to an individual shareholder or foreign resident, subject to double taxation prevention treaties.

On May 16, 2017, the Knesset Finance Committee approved Encouragement of Capital Investment Regulations (Preferred Technological Income and Capital Gain of Technological Enterprise) – 2017 (hereinafter: "the Regulations"), which provides rules for applying the "preferred technological enterprise" and "special preferred technological enterprise" tax benefit tracks including the Nexus formula that provides the mechanism for allocating the technological income eligible for the benefits.

The Company obtained tax rulings confirming that the Company is eligible for the Law for the Encouragement of Capital Investments. The tax rulings which were obtained applied for the years 2017-2021. The Company approached the Israeli Tax Authority, for the renewal of the tax ruling, regarding industrial enterprise and preferred technological enterprise, for the next five years.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**b.** **Details regarding the tax environment of the non-Israeli companies:** 

Non-Israeli subsidiaries are taxed according to the tax laws in their countries of residence as reported in their statutory financial statement prepared under local accounting regulations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) US

Provisions enacted in the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act in 2017 related to the capitalization for tax purposes of research and experimental expenditures ("R&E") became effective on January 1, 2022. These new R&E provisions require us to capitalize certain research and experimental expenditures and amortize them on the U.S. tax return over five or fifteen years, depending on where these costs are conducted. The tax expense in the U.S. would increase as a result, unless these provisions are modified through legislative processes in the future. The Company consider the effect of the new enacted act in the current year tax provision and the deferred tax asset.

As of the acquisition date of RhythmOne, RhythmOne had U.S. federal net operating loss carryforwards, or NOLs, of approximately USD 100.8 million, which will expire starting 2038. As of December 31, 2022, the NOLs are approximately USD 65.7 million (2021: USD 79.4 million).

As of the acquisition date of Amobee, Amobee had U.S. federal net operating loss carryforwards, or NOLs, and the Company estimates that approximately USD 315 million NOLs can be utilized over the next 53 years.

Additionally, for tax years beginning after December 31, 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act limits the NOL deduction to 80% of taxable income, repeals carryback of all NOLs arising in a tax year ending after 2017 and permits indefinite carryforwards for all such NOLs. NOL's arising in a tax year ending on or before 2017 can offset 100% of taxable income, are available for carryback, and expire 20 years after they arise. It should be noted that the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security ("CARES") Act suspended the 80% limitation for tax years 2018, 2019 and 2020 and allowed for a 5-year carryback for NOLs for tax years beginning after December 31, 2017, and before January 1, 2021.

Pursuant to Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code, RhythmOne and Amobee underwent ownership changes for tax purposes (i.e., a change of more than 50% in stock ownership involving 5% shareholders) on April 2, 2019 and September 12, 2022, respectively. As a result, the use of the Company's total US NOL carryforwards and tax credits generated prior to the ownership change is subject to annual use limitations under Section 382 and potentially also under section 383 of the Code and comparable state income tax laws. Starting from the acquisition date, Amobee is included in the US federal group tax return.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) International

As of December 31, 2022, the NOLs are approximately USD 22.3 million (2021: USD 16.6 million).

#### Impairment testing for intangible assets
The Company's qualitative assessment during the years ended December 31, 2022, and December 31, 2021, did not indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value of its intangible assets, and other long-lived assets is less than the aggregate carrying amount.

As of December 31, 2022, the estimated recoverable amount based on company's market value was lower than the carrying amount, and therefore the recoverable amount was estimated based on value in use and was determined by discounting the future cash flows. The estimated value in use was higher than the carrying amount, and therefore there was no need for impairment. As of December 31, 2021, the recoverable amount was based on fair value less cost of disposal which higher than the carrying amount.

Key assumptions used in the calculation of recoverable amounts are:

Pre-tax discount rate 15% (WACC)

Terminal value growth rate 3%

EBITDA growth rate 21%-33%

The cash flow projections include specific estimates for five years and a terminal value growth rate thereafter. EBITDA growth rate is expressed as the annual growth rate in the initial five years of the plans used for impairment testing and has been mainly based on past experience and management expectations.

Management has identified two key assumptions for which there reasonably could be a possible change that could cause the carrying amount to exceed the recoverable amount. The table below shows the amount that these two assumptions are required to change individually in order for the estimated recoverable amount to be equal to the carrying amount.

The Group's exposure to credit, and currency risks are disclosed in Note 18 on financial instruments.

**NOTE 11:** **LONG-TERM DEBT**

In September 2022, Unruly Group US Holding Inc. entered into a $90 million senior secured term loan facility (the Term Loan Facility) and a $90 million senior secured revolving credit facility with a $15 million letter of credit sub-facility (the Revolving Credit Facility and, together with the Term Loan Facility, collectively, the Credit Facilities). The Company used the net proceeds of the Term Loan Facility and $10 million of net proceeds of the Revolving Credit Facility to fund a portion of the cash consideration required to close its acquisition of Amobee Inc. The Company may use borrowings made from time to time under the Revolving Credit Facility for general corporate purposes or other purposes not prohibited under the Credit Facilities. Each of the Credit Facilities matures on September 15, 2025 and bears interest, at the Company's discretion, at a base rate plus a margin of 0.25% to 1.00% per annum or SOFR rate plus a spread of 1.25% to 2.00% per annum plus a credit spread adjustment of 0.10% to 0.25% based on the interest period duration of the applicable borrowing, in each case with such margin being determined by the Company's consolidated total net leverage ratio. The Revolving Credit Facility may be borrowed, repaid, and re-borrowed until its maturity. The Company may prepay the Credit Facilities at its discretion without premium or penalty. The Credit Facilities are each due and payable in full on the respective maturity date of such Credit Facility.

The Company is also obligated to pay a commitment fee on the undrawn amounts of the Revolving Credit Facility at an annual rate ranging from 0.20% to 0.35%, determined by the Company's total net leverage ratio. The Credit Facilities require compliance with various financial and non-financial covenants, including affirmative and negative covenants. The financial covenants require that the total net leverage ratio not exceed 3x and the interest coverage ratio not be less than 4x, in each case measured as of the end of each fiscal quarter. As of December 31, 2022, the Company was in compliance with all related covenants. The letter of credit sub-facility includes a fee at a rate per annum equal to the applicable margin for SOFR Loans then in effect on the daily maximum amount then available to be drawn as well as a fronting fee equal to 0.125% per annum along with other standard fees.

Unruly Group US Holding Inc.'s obligations under the Credit Facilities are (i) jointly and severally guaranteed by Tremor International Ltd. and certain of Tremor International Ltd.'s direct and indirect, existing and future wholly owned restricted subsidiaries, subject to certain exceptions and (ii) secured on a first-lien basis by substantially all of the tangible and intangible assets of Unruly Group US Holding Inc. and the guarantors of the Credit Facilities, subject to certain permitted liens and other agreed upon exceptions.

#### Linkage and foreign currency risks

#### Currency risk
The Group is not exposed to currency risk on sales and purchases that are denominated in a currency other than the respective functional currency of the Group, the USD. The principal currencies in which these transactions are denominated are GBP, NIS, Euro, CAD, SGD, MXN, AUD and JPY.

At any point in time, the Group aims to match the amounts of its assets and liabilities in the same currency in order to hedge the exposure to changes in currency.

In respect of other monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies, the Group ensures that its net exposure is kept to an acceptable level by buying or selling foreign currencies at spot rates when necessary to address short-term imbalances.

#### Interest rate risk
The Group is exposed to a cash flow risk from its variable-rate debt instruments.

An increase of 5% in interest rate would have a decrease in profit and in shareholders' equity by 1,067 thousand.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**b.** **Acquisition of subsidiaries and business combinations during the current period:** 

#### Acquisition of Amobee :
On July 25, 2022, the Company and its subsidiaries entered into a definitive agreement with Amobee Group Pte. Ltd (the "Seller") to acquire 100% of the voting share capital of Amobee, Inc., Amobee Asia Pte. Ltd. and Amobee ANZ Pty Ltd ("Amobee"). Amobee is a leading global advertising platform. The acquisition was completed at September 12, 2022 for a total consideration of USD 211.8 million which was funded through a combination of existing cash resources, and USD 100 million from a new USD 180 million secured credit facility, see note 11.

The primary reasons for the business combination are the goals to increase Company's global market presence, significantly enhance and expand Company's technology capabilities, add new linear TV capabilities and cross selling opportunities, and enrich Company's growth and competitive positioning within the industry.

The purchase price of consideration transferred, and the recognized amounts of assets acquired, and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date of USD 211.8 million includes USD 82 million Intellectual Property Assets previously owned by Amobee Inc.

In the consolidated period from the acquisition date to December 31, 2022 the subsidiary contributed USD 12.6 million loss to the Group's results and USD 36.8 million to the Group's revenue. If the acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2022, management estimates that consolidated loss would have been USD 55.2 million and consolidated revenue for the year would have been USD 427.6 million. In determining these amounts, management has assumed that the fair value adjustments, determined provisionally, that arose on the date of acquisition would have been the same if the acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2022. The pro forma results do not include any anticipated cost synergies or other effects of the combined companies.

Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) In 2019, Amobee Asia Pte Ltd ("Amobee SG") entered into an agreement with MediaCorp Pte Ltd ("MediaCorp") for the design, development, implementation, integration, testing, delivery, and maintenance of a Dynamic Ad Platform based on Amobee technology. The agreement is for five years, automatically renewing for one-year periods. As of the date of acquisition and as part of the PPA, the Group assessed that the obligation for the net discounted future payments exceeding market fair value aggregated to present value of USD 9 million. As of December 31, 2022, the liability balance aggregated to present value of USD 8.7 million. The amount which is included in the long term is USD 7.3 million.

**Measurement of fair values:**

The fair value of the technology is based on the research and development costs, the relief from royalty method was utilized in the determination of the fair value of the existing and developed technologies.

The fair value of the brand is based on the discounted estimated royalty income that could have generate if the trademark was licensed, in an arm's length transaction, to a third party.

The fair value of customer relationships is determined using the multi-period excess earnings method, whereby the subject asset is valued after deducting a fair return on all other assets that are part of creating the related cash flows.

The following table summarizes the components of the acquired intangible assets and estimated useful lives as of the acquisition date:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. In January 2018, AlmondNet, Inc. and its affiliates (Datonics LLC and Intent IQ) contacted RhythmOne asserting that RhythmOne's online advertising system infringes eleven U.S. Patents owned by the AlmondNet Group. As of the date of this report, a claim was never filed and RhythmOne is currently in a commercial agreement with AlmondNet's affiliate. The Company believes that the likelihood of a material loss is remote but at this point is unable to reasonably estimate any potential loss and financial impact to the Company resulting from this matter.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. On May 18, 2021, the Company filed a complaint against Alphonso, Inc. ("Alphonso") in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York (the "Court"), asserting claims for breach of contract, tortious interference with business relations, intentional interference with contractual relations, unjust enrichment, and conversion. On September 10, 2021, the Company amended its complaint against Alphonso and added LG Electronics, Inc. ("LGE") as a Defendant.

The lawsuit arose out of Alphonso's breach of a Strategic Partnership Agreement and an Advance Payment Obligation and Security Agreement (the "Security Agreement") with the Company, Alphonso and LGE's tortious interference with Tremor's contractual relationships and business relations, and related misconduct. The Company is seeking damages and other relief, including an order foreclosing on Alphonso's collateral under the Security Agreement, from the Court.

On May 24, 2021, Alphonso filed a complaint against the Company in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York, asserting claims for breach of contract, unfair competition, and tortious interference with business relations. Alphonso, LGE, and the Company are currently engaged in depositions and expert discovery.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. On June 21, 2022, Alphonso, Inc. ("Alphonso") filed a complaint against the Company in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, asserting claims for misappropriation of trade secrets under federal and state law. On July 19, 2022, Alphonso also filed a motion for a preliminary injunction. On October 31, 2022, the Court denied Alphonso's motion for a preliminary injunction. Alphonso and the Company are currently engaged in fact discovery. The Company believes that the likelihood of a loss is remote and at this point is unable to reasonably estimate any potential loss and financial impact to the Company resulting from this matter.

For the avoidance of doubt, Seller Repaid Indebtedness shall not be included in the calculation of the Adjusted Share Purchase Price or any component thereunder (including, without limitation, Company Debt).

**&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 2.3**&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; **Closing Date; Closing**. The closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the Asset Purchase and immediately thereafter the Share Purchase (the "**Closing**"), shall take place at a time and date to be agreed between the Share Buyers and the Share Seller, which shall be no later than the second (2<sup>nd</sup>) Business Day after the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in <u>Article VIII</u> (other than those that by their terms are to be satisfied or waived at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver of those conditions), or at such other time, date and location as the Share Buyers and the Share Seller agree in writing. The date on which the Closing occurs is referred to herein as the "**Closing Date**." The Closing shall take place remotely, via exchange of documents and signatures.

The Adjustment Escrow Fund and the General Indemnity Escrow Fund (or any portion thereof) shall be distributed to or for the benefit of the Share Seller or the Share Buyers, as applicable, at the times, and upon the terms and conditions, set forth in the Escrow Agreement. All amounts received by the parties pursuant to this <u>Section</u> <u>2.4</u> shall be treated as adjustments to the Adjusted Share Purchase Price for all Tax purposes. None of the parties shall take any position on any Tax Return, or before any Governmental Entity, that is inconsistent with such treatment, except upon a contrary final determination by an applicable Tax authority.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**2.5**&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; **Estimated Closing Statement; Purchase Price Adjustment**.

By no later than five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Share Seller shall deliver to the Share Buyers a statement setting forth (i) the Share Seller's reasonable good faith estimate of the Adjusted Share Purchase Price (including, for purposes of such estimate, Share Seller's good faith reasonable estimate of the components thereof, including for the avoidance of doubt, the Company Net Working Capital (the "**Estimated Closing Net Working Capital**"), the Company Cash, each Change in Control Fee, Company Transaction Fee, Severance Expense and Company Debt); (ii) a pro forma balance sheet as of the Closing Date; and (iii) all of the calculations and documents with respect to any amounts set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) (such deliverables in clauses (i) and (ii), collectively, the "**Estimated Closing Statement**"). The Estimated Closing Statement shall be prepared in accordance with the Accounting Principles and shall be signed by a duly authorized signatory of the Share Seller and accompanied by reasonable supporting documentation. It is hereby clarified that in preparation of the Estimated Closing Statement (and any Draft Closing Statement or Final Closing Statement hereunder), it will include the Purchased IP Assets as assets of the Group Companies and disregard the Buyers' payment of the Asset Purchase Price at Closing.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The Share Buyers shall have the right to review the Estimated Closing Statement and such additional supporting documentation or data as the Share Buyers may reasonably request. The Share Seller shall, to the extent practicable, consider in good faith any proposed comments or changes that the Share Buyers may reasonably suggest; *provided*, *however,* that (i) the Share Seller's reasonable determination, after conferring with the Share Buyers in good faith, as to whether to include any such comments shall, in all events, prevail, and (ii) the Share Seller's failure to include in the Estimated Closing Statement any changes proposed by the Share Buyers, or the acceptance by the Share Buyers of the Estimated Closing Statement, shall not limit or otherwise affect the Share Buyers' remedies under this Agreement, including the Share Buyers' right to include such changes or other changes in the Draft Closing Statement, or constitute an acknowledgment by the Share Buyers of the accuracy of the Estimated Closing Statement provided by the Share Seller.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Determination of Final Closing Statement</u>. Within ninety (90) days following the Closing Date (the "**Draft Closing Statement Deadline**"), the Share Buyers shall provide to the Share Seller a statement setting forth the Share Buyers' calculation of the Company Net Working Capital, the Company Cash, the Change in Control Fee, the Company Transaction Fees, the Severance Expense and the Company Debt as of the Closing prepared in accordance with IFRS (the "**Draft Closing Statement**") or an acceptance statement of the Estimated Closing Statement (the "**Buyer Acceptance Statement**"). The Draft Closing Statement shall be certified as to the contents therein by the Chief Financial Officer of the Asset Seller and accompanied by reasonable supporting documentation. The Share Seller shall deliver, on or prior to the date that is thirty (30) days after its receipt of the Draft Closing Statement (the "**Objection Deadline Date**"), a written notice indicating that either the Share Seller accepts the Draft Closing Statement (the "**Acceptance Notice**") or a statement describing all objections to the Draft Closing Statement including reasonable detail of those items and amounts in disagreement and calculations thereof (the "**Objection Notice**"). If the Share Seller timely delivers an Objection Notice, such objections shall be resolved as follows:

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The Share Buyers and the Share Seller shall first use all reasonable efforts to resolve such objections in good faith.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; If the Share Buyers and the Share Seller do not reach a resolution of all objections set forth in the Objection Notice within thirty (30) days after the Objection Deadline Date, the dispute shall be referred, on the application of either the Share Buyers or the Share Seller, to an internationally recognized independent accounting firm reasonably acceptable to and mutually agreed by the Share Buyers and the Share Seller (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, KPMG and PwC and, provided that if the Share Buyers and the Share Seller cannot agree on an Accounting Firm, then the Accounting Firm will be a mutually agreed branch of Ernst & Young LLP or a controlled Affiliate of such firm, or if not agreed the US branch) (the "**Accounting Firm**"), to resolve any remaining objections set forth in the Objection Notice (the "**Unresolved Objections**"). Each of the Share Buyers and the Share Seller shall promptly, but in no event later than twenty (20) days following the referral of the Unresolved Objections to the Accounting Firm, prepare a written statement describing their respective positions with respect to the Unresolved Objections, which, together with the relevant documents, will be submitted to the Accounting Firm for review and final determination ("**Written Statement**"). Following submission of any Unresolved Objections to the Accounting Firm, the Share Buyers and the Share Seller shall furnish the Accounting Firm with such information and documents as the Accounting Firm may reasonably request in order to resolve the Unresolved Objections. For the avoidance of doubt, the review of the Accounting Firm will be limited to the Unresolved Objections and the Accounting Firm shall determine its calculation of the Unresolved Objections in accordance with the Accounting Principles and the terms of this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Within ten (10) days after the date of receipt of the last Written Statement, the Accounting Firm shall make a determination as to the resolution of the Unresolved Objections and shall issue a written ruling of such resolution, which shall include an illustration of all adjustments (which for the avoidance of doubt shall only be related to the Unresolved Objections) to the Draft Closing Statement based on any resolutions to objections agreed upon by the Share Buyers and the Share Seller and pursuant to the Accounting Firm's resolution of the Unresolved Objections. The Accounting Firm shall make a determination only as to the Unresolved Objections and shall not decide any specific items not under dispute and its determination as to the Unresolved Objections shall be in accordance with the Accounting Principles and the terms of this Agreement and within the range of values assigned to each such disputed item in the Draft Closing Statement and the Objection Notice, respectively.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The Final Closing Statement shall be conclusive, non-appealable and binding upon the Share Buyers and the Share Seller absent fraud. The parties to this Agreement agree that the procedure set forth in this <u>Section</u> <u>2.5</u> for resolving disputes with respect to the Draft Closing Statement shall be the sole and exclusive method for resolving such disputes and the Final Closing Statement will be final, conclusive and binding on the parties absent fraud; *provided*, that this provision shall not prohibit either the Share Buyers or the Share Seller from instituting litigation to enforce the ruling of the Accounting Firm or prohibit either party from making any claims for breach or making claims of indemnification pursuant to the terms of this Agreement for breach by any other party of any of the provisions of this <u>Section</u> <u>2.5</u>. As used herein, the term "**Final Closing Statement**" shall mean and refer to (i) the Estimated Closing Statement delivered by the Share Seller to the extent the Share Buyers provides a Buyer Acceptance Statement or fails to provide a Draft Closing Statement by the Draft Closing Statement Deadline; (ii) the Draft Closing Statement delivered by the Share Buyers if the Share Seller delivers to the Share Buyers an Acceptance Notice or fails to deliver an Objection Notice by the Objection Deadline Date, or (iii) the Draft Closing Statement as adjusted pursuant to the Accounting Firm's resolution of the Unresolved Objections.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The Share Buyers and the Share Seller will each bear their own fees and expenses, including the fees and expenses of their respective accountants, in preparing or reviewing, as the case may be, the Draft Closing Statement, if any. The fees, costs and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be allocated to and borne by the Share Buyers and the Share Seller based on the inverse of the percentage that the Accounting Firm's determination (before such allocation) bears to the total amount of the total Unresolved Objections originally submitted to the Accounting Firm. For example, should the Unresolved Objections total $1,000 and the Accounting Firm awards $600 in favor of the Seller's position, sixty percent (60%) of the costs of its review would be borne by the Share Buyers and forty percent (40%) of the costs would be borne by the Seller. However, the Share Buyers and the Share Seller will each bear its own costs in presenting its position regarding any Unresolved Objections to the Accounting Firm.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Post-Closing Adjustment</u>. Within three (3) Business Days after the determination of the Final Closing Statement, the Adjustment Amount (as determined and defined below) shall be calculated and distributed from the Adjustment Escrow Fund as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The "**Adjustment Amount**" shall be (without duplications) an amount (which may be expressed as a positive or negative number) equal to the sum of (i) an amount (expressed as a positive or negative number) equal to the Final Closing Net Working Capital Surplus <u>minus</u> the Estimated Closing Net Working Capital Surplus; <u>minus</u> (ii) an amount (expressed as a positive or negative number) equal to the Final Closing Net Working Capital Deficit <u>minus</u> the Estimated Closing Net Working Capital Deficit; <u>minus</u> (iii) an amount (expressed as a positive or negative number) equal to the total Company Transaction Fees as finally determined pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>2.5</u> minus the total Company Transaction Fees set forth in the Estimated Closing Statement; <u>plus</u> (iv) an amount (expressed as a positive or negative number) equal to the Company Cash as finally determined pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>2.5</u> minus the Company Cash set forth in the Estimated Closing Statement (if any); <u>minus</u> (v) the amount (expressed as a positive or negative number) equal to the Company Debt as finally determined pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>2.5</u> minus the Company Debt set forth in the Estimated Closing Statement (if any); <u>minus</u> (vi) the amount (expressed as a positive or negative number) equal to the total Change in Control Fees as finally determined pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>2.5</u> minus the total Change in Control Fees set forth in the Estimated Closing Statement; and <u>minus</u> (vii) the amount (expressed as a positive or negative number) equal to the total Severance Expenses as finally determined pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>2.5</u> minus the total Severance Expenses set forth in the Estimated Closing Statement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; If the Adjustment Amount, as determined pursuant to this <u>Section</u> <u>2.5</u>, is a negative number for which the absolute value is greater than $1,000,000, then the Share Buyers and the Share Seller, shall provide written instructions in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement instructing the Escrow Agent to pay, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, from the Adjustment Escrow Amount to the US Share Buyer the absolute value of such Adjustment Amount in cash within three (3) Business Days after the determination of the Adjustment Amount based on the Final Closing Statement, provided that, if the amounts in the Adjustment Escrow Amount are insufficient to pay the US Share Buyer the absolute value of the Adjustment Amount in full, any deficiency may be claimed by the US Share Buyer directly from the Share Seller or the General Indemnity Escrow Fund. If payment in full to the US Share Buyer pursuant to this <u>Section</u> <u>2.5(d)(ii</u>) does not result in distribution of the entire Adjustment Escrow Amount to the US Share Buyer, then any remaining amount from the Adjustment Escrow Amount will be released to the Share Seller, within five (5) Business Days after full payment of any Adjustment Amount to the US Share Buyer.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; If the Adjustment Amount, as finally determined pursuant to this <u>Section</u> <u>2.5</u>, is a positive number and is greater than $1,000,000, then the Share Buyers shall, within five (5) Business Days after the determination of the Adjustment Amount based on the Final Closing Statement, (A) deliver to the Escrow Agent a written notice instructing the Escrow Agent to release the Adjustment Escrow Amount to the Share Seller, and (B) deliver to the Share Seller by wire transfer of immediately available funds, an aggregate amount equal to the Adjustment Amount in cash. The Share Buyers shall be jointly and severally liable with respect to such payment obligation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; If the Adjustment Amount, as finally determined pursuant to this <u>Section</u> <u>2.5</u>, (A) is a negative number for which the absolute value is less than $1,000,000, (B) is a positive number that is less than $1,000,000, or (C) is equal to zero (0), then no adjustment will be made and the Share Buyers shall, within five (5) Business Days after the determination of the Adjustment Amount based on the Final Closing Statement, deliver to the Escrow Agent a written notice instructing the Escrow Agent to release the Adjustment Escrow Amount to the Share Seller.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Any post-closing adjustment payments made under this <u>Section</u> <u>2.5</u> shall be treated as adjustments to the Purchase Price for the purchase of the Acquired Company Shares of the Asset Seller for all Tax purposes.

**&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 2.6**&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; **Withholding Taxes**. Each of the Buyers and the Escrow Agent (each a "**Payor**") shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement such amounts as the Payor is required, in its sole discretion, to deduct and withhold under any provision of applicable tax Law with respect to any Seller in accordance with this <u>Section</u> <u>2.6</u>. If a Payor determines that an amount is required to be deduct and withheld, Payor will use its commercially reasonable efforts to provide to the Share Seller, prior to the date the applicable payment is scheduled to be made, with written notice of its intent to deduct and withhold together with a calculation of the amount to be deducted and withheld and a reference to the applicable provision of the Code or other Law pursuant to which such deduction and withholding is required. Payor will reasonably cooperate with the Share Seller to establish the entitlement of the Share Seller to any reasonably available exemption or reduction in such deduction or withholding (including providing the Share Seller with reasonable opportunity to provide forms or other evidence that would exempt such amounts from withholding). To the extent that amounts are so withheld by a Payor and remitted over to the applicable Tax authority, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Sellers in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made. Payor will provide the Share Seller written documentation evidencing that such amounts were paid to the applicable Governmental Entity within ten (10) Business Days following the date of remittance.

**&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 2.7**&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; **No Further Ownership Rights in Acquired Company Shares**. From and after the Closing Date and subject to the consummation of the Closing, the holders (other than the Share Buyers or any transferee of the Share Buyers) of certificates formerly evidencing ownership of Acquired Company Shares outstanding immediately prior to the Closing shall cease to have any rights with respect to such shares or securities, except as otherwise provided for herein or by applicable Laws.

**&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 2.8**&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; **Further Assurances**. The Buyers and the Sellers will take all such reasonable and lawful action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to effectuate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement as promptly as possible.

In addition to the Adjusted Share Purchase Price payable to the Share Seller pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, the Share Seller (or its successors or assigns) shall be eligible to receive additional consideration for the Share Purchase (the "**Contingent Consideration**") in an amount equal to $4,500,000 *<u>minus</u>* the Termination Costs in the event that the MediaCorp Contract is terminated at any time during the Contingent Consideration Period.

Subject to applicable Law, the Share Seller shall provide to the Buyers and their accountants, counsel and other representatives copies of internal financial statements (including Tax Returns and supporting documentation) of the Group Companies upon reasonable request; *provided*, *however*, that the Share Seller does not make any representations and warranties as to the accuracy of any information provided under this <u>Section</u> <u>6.3</u>, and no information discovered through the access afforded by this <u>Section</u> <u>6.3</u> shall (x) limit, expand or otherwise affect any remedies available to the party receiving such access, or (y) be deemed to amend or supplement the Disclosure Schedule or prevent or cure any misrepresentations, breach of warranty or breach of covenant. The information provided pursuant to this <u>Section</u> <u>6.3</u> will be governed by all the terms and conditions of the Confidentiality Agreement. Subject to applicable Law, during the period commencing on the date hereof and prior to the earlier of the Closing or the termination of this Agreement, without the Share Seller's prior written consent, the Buyers shall not, and shall cause their Affiliates not to, contact any Employees, officers, directors, managers, consultants or independent contractors of any Group Company or any customers, vendors, suppliers, agents, brokers, partners, lenders, landlords, lessors or other third parties having business relationships with any of the Group Companies, other than in the ordinary course of the Buyers' and their Affiliates' businesses consistent with past practice, so long as any such contact does not relate to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, and is otherwise conducted in compliance with the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; From and after the Closing Date, the Buyers shall preserve and keep, or cause to be preserved and kept, the books and records that relate to the business of the Group Companies prior to the Closing for a period of seven (7) years after the Closing Date, and subject to applicable Law, upon the Share Seller's reasonable written request and during normal business hours, shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, give the Share Seller and its representatives reasonable access to such books and records relating to the businesses of the Group Companies prior to the Closing (including, without limitation, the ability to make copies thereof) and instruct such representatives to cooperate with such Person requesting access to such books and records.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the inadvertent failure of the Share Seller to provide the notice required in this <u>Section 6.4</u> with respect to a breach of a representation or warranty shall be deemed to be a breach of the applicable representation or warranty and not a breach of this covenant unless such failure to notify is willful and intentional.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**6.5**&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; **Reasonable Best Efforts to Complete**.

The Buyers shall not, without the prior written consent of the Share Seller, enter into any voluntary agreement with a Governmental Entity not to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Any cost and expenses related to the acquisition of such insurance shall be considered part of the Company Transaction Fees if not paid by the Group Companies prior to the Closing. The Buyers shall, and shall cause the Group Companies to, cooperate in good faith with the Company Indemnitees to use the tail coverage with respect to claims relating to acts or omissions occurring prior to the Closing; *provided*, *however*, that nothing herein shall require the Group Companies or the Buyers or any of their Affiliates to incur any cost or expense with respect to the Group Companies, following the Closing.

Such determination shall be subject to review and approval by the Buyers (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; As soon as reasonably practicable following the execution of this Agreement (but in no event later than five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing), the Share Seller shall cause the Group Companies to use their respective reasonable best efforts to obtain the approval by such number of shareholders of the Group Companies as is required by the terms of Section 280G(b)(5)(B) of the Code so as to render the parachute payment provisions of Section 280G of the Code inapplicable to any and all payments and/or benefits provided pursuant to contracts or arrangements that, in the absence of the executed Parachute Payment Waivers by the affected Persons under <u>Section</u> <u>6.12(a)</u>, might otherwise result, separately or in the aggregate, in the payment of any amount and/or the provision of any benefit that would not be deductible by reason of Section 280G of the Code, with such shareholder approval to be obtained in a manner which satisfies all applicable requirements of such Section 280G(b)(5)(B) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder, including Q-7 of Section 1.280G-1 of such Treasury Regulations.

Such corporate resolutions shall be subject to advance review and reasonable approval by the Buyers (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). Immediately prior to such termination, each of the Group Companies will make all necessary payments to fund the contributions: (i) necessary or required to maintain the tax-qualified status of the 401(k) Plan; (ii) for elective deferrals made pursuant to the 401(k) Plan for the period prior to termination; and (iii) for any employer contributions (including, without limitation, any matching contributions) for the period prior to termination. For this purpose, the term "**401(k) Plan**" means any plan intended to be qualified under Code Section 401(a) which includes a cash or deferred arrangement intended to qualify under Code Section 401(k). The Share Seller shall provide the Buyers with a copy of resolutions duly adopted by each of the Group Companies' board of directors so terminating any such 401(k) Plan. In the event that termination of the 401(k) Plan of any of the Group Companies would reasonably be anticipated to trigger liquidation charges, surrender charges or other fees (other than ordinary administrative fees in connection with such termination), then such Group Company shall pay or provide for payment of the amount of such charges and/or fees prior to the Closing Date.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, to the extent that Losses in connection with an indemnifiable matter reduced the Adjusted Share Purchase Price by virtue of being specifically included in the calculation of the adjustments set forth in <u>Section</u> <u>2.5</u><u> </u>hereof, the same amount of such Losses may not be recovered again under this <u>Article IX</u>.

If an Indemnified Party actually received insurance proceeds with respect to such Losses at any time subsequent to any indemnification payment actually made by the Share Seller pursuant to this Agreement, then Buyers will reimburse the General Indemnity Escrow Fund (or if applicable, the Share Seller) the amount of the Losses for which the Share Seller indemnified such Buyer Indemnified Party, net of any costs incurred by such Buyer Indemnified Party in investigating, prosecuting and collection of such amounts and net of any increase to the applicable insurance premiums, within thirty (30) Business Days of receipt of such insurance proceeds. It is hereby clarified that Buyer Indemnified Parties shall be under no obligation to seek recourse from any insurance policy, except for the obligations to seek recourse from the R&W Insurance Policy as set forth in this <u>Article IX</u> and subject to its terms.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Subject to the limitations of this <u>Article IX</u>, any claim for indemnification pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>9.2(a)</u><u>(iii)-(vi)</u> shall be recovered (I) first, from the General Indemnity Escrow Fund, (II) second, from the R&W Insurance Policy, and (III) third, from the Seller Indemnifying Party.

The Claim Certificate shall be delivered by the Indemnified Party reasonably promptly after such Indemnified Party becomes aware of the existence of a claim; *provided*, *however*, that no delay on the part of an Indemnified Party in delivering a Claim Certificate shall relieve the Indemnifying Party from any of its obligations under this <u>Article IX</u> unless (and then only to the extent that) the Indemnifying Party is prejudiced thereby in terms of any defense or claim available to the Indemnifying Party or the amount of Losses for which the Indemnifying Party is obligated to indemnify the Indemnified Parties.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Following its receipt of a Claim Certificate, the Indemnifying Party shall have 30 calendar days to object to any item(s) or amount(s) set forth therein by delivering written notice thereof (a "**Claim Objection Notice**") to the Indemnified Party. In the event that the Indemnifying Party shall (i) agree in writing that the Indemnified Party to is entitled to receive all of the indemnifiable Losses; or (ii) fail to object, pursuant to this <u>Section</u> <u>9.4(b)</u>, to any indemnifiable Losses set forth in a Claim Certificate within the foregoing 30 calendar day period, the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have objected to such indemnifiable Losses, and each of the parties may initiate a legal action and such dispute shall be resolved in accordance with <u>Section</u> <u>11.10</u>.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; In the event that the Indemnifying Party delivers a Claim Objection Notice pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>9.4(b)</u> hereof as to any item(s) or amount(s) set forth in any Claim Certificate, the Share Seller and the Buyers, shall attempt in good faith to agree upon the rights of the respective parties with respect to each of such claims objected to in such Claim Objection Notice for a period of 30 days after delivery of the Claim Objection Notice. If the Buyers, and the Share Seller should so agree, a written memorandum setting forth such agreement shall be prepared and signed by them and, in the case of a claim in whole or in part against the General Indemnity Escrow Fund, shall be furnished to the Escrow Agent to promptly release from the General Indemnity Escrow Fund and deliver to the Indemnified Parties an amount of cash equal to the indemnifiable Losses so agreed.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Should the parties be unable to agree as to any particular item or items or Loss or Losses specified in a Claim Objection Notice within the time periods specified in <u>Section</u> <u>9.4(c)</u>, then each of the parties may initiate a legal action and such dispute shall be resolved in accordance with <u>Section</u> <u>11.12</u>. A final decision of the applicable court for which no timely appeal is pending or as to which the time for filing such appeal has expired as to the validity and amount of any claim shall be binding and conclusive upon the parties, and notwithstanding anything in <u>Article IX</u>, the parties shall act in accordance with such determination.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**9.5**&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; **Third-Party Claims**.

In the event that an Indemnified Party becomes aware of a third-party claim (which shall, include, for the avoidance of doubt, claims, investigations or proceedings with respect to or which may give rise to an indemnification claim under the Scheduled Indemnities) (a "**Third Party Claim**") that such Indemnified Party reasonably believes, in good faith, may result in an indemnification claim for indemnifiable Losses pursuant to this <u>Article IX</u>, such Indemnified Party shall notify the Indemnifying Party in writing of such Third Party Claim (the "**Third Party Claim Notice**"), which shall state in reasonable detail the facts, circumstances and events relating to the Third Party Claim and copies of all documents relating thereto; *provided*, *however*, that the Third Party Claim Notice may be updated and amended from time to time by the Indemnified Party by delivering an updated or amended Third Party Claim Notice. The Third Party Claim Notice shall be delivered by the Indemnified Party reasonably promptly after such Indemnified Party becomes aware of the existence of a Third Party Claim; *provided*, *however*, that no delay on the part of an Indemnified Party in delivering a Third Party Claim Notice shall relieve the Indemnifying Party from any of its obligations under this <u>Article IX</u> unless (and then only to the extent that) the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced thereby in terms of any defense, conduct or claim available to the Indemnifying Party or the amount of Losses for which the Indemnifying Party is obligated to indemnify the Indemnified Parties. The Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in the investigation, defense and settlement of any such Third Party Claim and, at its election to assume the defense and/or conduct thereof; provided, that if the Indemnifying Party wishes to so assume the defense of such Third Party Claim, it shall provide notice to the Indemnified Party of its intent to do so within fifteen (15) Business Days of its receipt of the Third Party Claim Notice. If the Indemnifying Party chooses to defend any Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall cooperate in the defense or prosecution of such Third Party Claim. Such cooperation shall include the retention and the provision to the Indemnifying Party of records, information and testimony and attending such conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings, trials or appeals, which are reasonably requested in connection with such Third Party Claim, and making employees and other representatives and advisors of the Indemnified Party and its Affiliates (including, without limitation, the Group Companies) available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. To the extent and for so long as the Indemnifying Party elects not to assume the defense, conduct and/or settlement of such Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to conduct the defense of, and to settle, any such claim; *provided, however*, that without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party may not enter into any settlement or admission or Liability if (A) pursuant to or as a result of such settlement or compromise, injunctive or other equitable relief will be imposed against the Indemnifying Party (including any restriction on the future activity or conduct of the Indemnifying Party or its Affiliates), (B) such settlement does not expressly and unconditionally release the Indemnifying Party and its Affiliates from all liabilities with respect to such claim, without prejudice or (C) such settlement or compromise includes any finding of, or admission or statement with respect to, a violation of Law or violation of the rights of any Person by the Indemnifying Party or its Affiliates. Any settlement of any Third Party Claim by the Indemnified Party shall not be determinative of the amount of indemnifiable Losses relating to such matter or that such Losses are indemnifiable pursuant hereto. Any settlement of any Third Party Claim by the Indemnified Party without the consent of the Indemnifying Party shall include an unconditional release of the Indemnifying Party from all liability with respect to such Third Party Claim pursuant to this <u>Article IX</u>.

------

**&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 9.6**&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; **Effect of Indemnification Payments**. All amounts received by the Buyers as indemnification from the General Indemnity Escrow Fund pursuant to this Agreement shall be treated for all Tax purposes as adjustments to the Adjusted Share Purchase Price. None of the parties shall take any position on any Tax Return, or before any Governmental Entity, that is inconsistent with such treatment, except upon a contrary final determination by an applicable Tax authority.

**&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 9.7**&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; **Release of General Indemnity Escrow Fund**. On the date that is twelve (12) months after the Closing Date, any portion of the General Indemnity Escrow Amount then-remaining in the General Indemnity Escrow Fund, less the aggregate of all amounts reasonably necessary to continue to serve as security for any then-unresolved Claim Certificate or Third Party Claim Notice ("**Held Back Amounts**") therefore received, shall be released from the General Indemnity Escrow Fund to the Share Seller, and the Share Seller and the applicable Buyer party shall, within five (5) Business Days of such date that is twelve (12) months after the Closing Date, deliver joint instructions to the Escrow Agent to effectuate such release. Any Held Back Amounts shall remain in the General Indemnity Escrow Fund and released to the Share Seller as soon as, and to the extent that, they are no longer in good faith reasonably necessary to continue to serve as security for a Claim Certificate or Third Party Claim Notice, at which time the Share Seller and the applicable Buyer party shall instruct the Escrow Agent to release any such amount in accordance with the final resolution thereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**11.4**&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; **Entire Agreement**.

This Agreement, the Exhibits and Schedules hereto, the Related Agreements, and the documents and instruments and other agreements among the parties hereto referenced herein and therein constitute the entire agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings both written and oral, among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**11.5**&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; **No Third Party Beneficiaries**.

This Agreement, the Exhibits and Schedules hereto, the Related Agreements, and the documents and instruments and other agreements among the parties hereto referenced herein and therein are not intended to, and shall not, confer upon any other person any rights or remedies hereunder, except the Company Indemnitees are intended third-party beneficiaries of, and may enforce, <u>Section</u> <u>6.8</u>.

This Agreement, the Exhibits and Schedules hereto, the Related Agreements, and the documents and instruments and other agreements among the parties hereto referenced herein and therein shall not be assigned by operation of law or otherwise, except that any Buyer may assign its rights and delegate its obligations hereunder to any of its Affiliates provided that such Buyer remains ultimately liable for all of such Buyer's obligations hereunder.

Except to the extent otherwise provided in this Agreement, any and all remedies herein expressly conferred upon a party will be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred hereby, or by law or equity upon such party, and the exercise by a party of any one remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other remedy in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

Section 1.14&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Benchmark Replacement Setting</u>.

(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Benchmark Replacement</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may amend this Agreement to replace the then-current Benchmark with a Benchmark Replacement. Any such amendment with respect to a Benchmark Transition Event will become effective at 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5<sup>th</sup>) Business Day after the Administrative Agent has posted such proposed amendment to all affected Lenders and the Borrower so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such amendment from Lenders comprising the Majority Lenders. No replacement of a Benchmark with a Benchmark Replacement pursuant to this <u>Section 1.14(a)</u> will occur prior to the applicable Benchmark Transition Start Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; No Lender Hedging Agreement shall be deemed to be a "Loan Document" for purposes of this <u>Section 1.14</u>).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes</u>. In connection with the use, administration, adoption or implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations</u>. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of (i) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement and (ii) the effectiveness of any Conforming Changes in connection with the use, administration, adoption or implementation of a Benchmark Replacement. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower of the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to <u>Section 1.14(d</u>**<u>)</u>**. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or, if applicable, any Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to this <u>Section 1.14</u>***,*** including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this <u>Section 1.14</u>.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Unavailability of Tenor of Benchmark</u>. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, at any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (i) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including the Term SOFR Reference Rate) and either (A) any tenor for such Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion or (B) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is or will be no longer representative or in compliance with or aligned with the International Organization of Securities Commissions (IOSCO) Principles for Financial Benchmarks, then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of "Interest Period" (or any similar or analogous definition) for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable, non-representative or non-compliant tenor and (ii) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to <u>clause (i)</u> above either (A) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (B) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is not or will be no longer representative or in compliance with or aligned with the International Organization of Securities Commissions (IOSCO) Principles for Financial Benchmarks for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of "Interest Period" (or any similar or analogous definition) for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Benchmark Unavailability Period</u>. Upon the Borrower's receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, the Borrower may revoke any request for a Borrowing of Term SOFR Loans of, conversion to or continuation of Term SOFR Loans to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Loans. During any Benchmark Unavailability Period or at any time that a tenor for the then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the component of Base Rate based upon the then-current Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of Base Rate.

Section 1.15&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Interest Rates; Benchmark Notification</u>. The interest rate on a Loan denominated in Dollars may be derived from an interest rate benchmark that may be discontinued or is, or may in the future become, the subject of regulatory reform. Upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, <u>Section 1.14</u> provides a mechanism for determining an alternative rate of interest. The Administrative Agent does not warrant or accept any responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to, (a) the continuation of, the administration of, submission of, calculation of, performance of or any other matter related to any interest rate used in this Agreement (including, without limitation, the Base Rate, SOFR, the Term SOFR Reference Rate, Adjusted Term SOFR or Term SOFR) or any component definition thereof or rates referred to in the definition thereof, or with respect to any alternative or successor rate thereto, or replacement rate thereof (including any Benchmark Replacement), including without limitation, whether the composition or characteristics of any such alternative, successor or replacement reference rate will be similar to, or produce or have the same value or economic equivalence of, the existing interest rate (or any component thereof) being replaced or have the same volume or liquidity as did any existing interest rate (or any component thereof) prior to its discontinuance or unavailability. The Administrative Agent and its affiliates and/or other related entities may engage in transactions that affect the calculation of any interest rate (or component thereof) used in this Agreement or any alternative, successor or alternative rate (including any Benchmark Replacement) and/or any relevant adjustments thereto, in each case, in a manner adverse to the Borrower. The Administrative Agent may select information sources or services in its reasonable discretion to ascertain any interest rate used in this Agreement, any component thereof, or rates referred to in the definition thereof, in each case pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and shall have no liability to the Borrower, any Lender or any other person or entity for damages of any kind, including direct or indirect, special, punitive, incidental or consequential damages, costs, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise and whether at law or in equity), for any error or calculation of any such rate (or component thereof) provided by any such information source or service.

Section 2.02&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Borrowings, Conversions and Continuations of Loans</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Each Term Borrowing, each Revolving Credit Borrowing, each conversion of Term Loans, Specified Refinancing Revolving Loans or Revolving Credit Loans from one Type to the other, and each continuation of Term SOFR Loans, shall be made upon irrevocable notice by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent. Each such notice must be in writing and must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than (i) 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) three (3) Business Days (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent) prior to the requested date of any Borrowing of, conversion of Base Rate Loans to, or continuation of, Term SOFR Loans (or in the case of any such Borrowing to be made on the Closing Date, two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent), (ii) 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the requested date of any Term Borrowing of Base Rate Loans or of any conversion of Term SOFR Loans to Base Rate Loans and (iii) 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the requested date of any Revolving Credit Borrowing of Base Rate Loans or of any conversion of Term SOFR Loans to Base Rate Loan. Each notice pursuant to this <u>Section 2.02(a)</u> shall be delivered to the Administrative Agent in the form of a written Committed Loan Notice, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower.

Each Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Term SOFR Loans shall be (i) in a principal amount of $3,000,000, or (ii) a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof. Except as provided in <u>Section 2.03(d)</u>, each Borrowing of, or conversion to, Base Rate Loans shall be (i) in a principal amount of $1,000,000, or (ii) a whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Each Committed Loan Notice shall specify (i) whether the Borrower is requesting a Term Borrowing, a Revolving Credit Borrowing, a conversion of a Tranche of Term Loans, Specified Refinancing Revolving Loans or Revolving Credit Loans from one Type to the other, or a continuation of Term SOFR Loans, (ii) the requested date of the Borrowing, conversion or continuation, as the case may be (which shall be a Business Day), (iii) the principal amount of Loans to be borrowed, converted or continued, (iv) the Type of Loans to be borrowed or to which existing Tranche of Term Loans, Specified Refinancing Revolving Loans or Revolving Credit Loans are to be converted and (v) if applicable, the duration of the Interest Period with respect thereto. If, with respect to any Term SOFR Loans, the Borrower fails to specify a Type of Loan in a Committed Loan Notice or if the Borrower fails to give a timely notice requesting a conversion or continuation, then the applicable Tranche of Term Loans, Specified Refinancing Revolving Loans, or Revolving Credit Loans shall be made as, or converted to, Term SOFR Loans with an Interest Period of one (1) month. Any such automatic conversion or continuation pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence shall be effective as of the last day of the Interest Period then in effect with respect to the applicable Term SOFR Loans. If the Borrower requests a Borrowing of, conversion to, or continuation of Term SOFR Loans in any such Committed Loan Notice, but fails to specify an Interest Period, it will be deemed to have specified an Interest Period of one month.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Following receipt of a Committed Loan Notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each applicable Lender of the amount of its ratable share of the applicable Tranche of Term Loans, Specified Refinancing Revolving Loans or Revolving Credit Loans, and if no timely notice of a conversion or continuation of Term SOFR Loan is provided by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the details of any automatic conversion to Term SOFR Loans with an Interest Period of one month as described in <u>Section 2.02(a)</u>. In the case of a Term Borrowing or a Revolving Credit Borrowing, each Appropriate Lender shall make the amount of its Loan available to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds at the Administrative Agent's Office not later than 3:00 p.m. (New York City time), on the Business Day specified in the applicable Committed Loan Notice. Upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in <u>Section 4.02</u> (or, if such Borrowing is the initial Credit Extension, <u>Section 4.01</u>), the Administrative Agent shall make all funds so received available to the Borrower in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent either by (i) crediting the account of the Borrower on the books of the Administrative Agent with the amount of such funds or (ii) wire transfer of such funds, in each case in accordance with instructions provided to (and reasonably acceptable to) the Administrative Agent by the Borrower; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that if, on the date the Committed Loan Notice with respect to such Borrowing is given by the Borrower, there are L/C Borrowings outstanding, then the proceeds of such Borrowing shall be applied, <u>first</u>, to the payment in full of any such L/C Borrowings, and <u>second</u>, to the Borrower as provided above.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Except as otherwise provided herein, a Term SOFR Loan may be continued or converted only on the last day of an Interest Period for such Term SOFR Loan unless the Borrower pay the amount due under <u>Section 3.06</u> in connection therewith. During the existence of an Event of Default, at the election of the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders, no Loans may be requested as, converted to or continued as Term SOFR Loans.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the interest rate applicable to any Interest Period for Term SOFR Loans upon determination of such interest rate. The determination of the Term SOFR Reference Rate by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; After giving effect to all Term Borrowings, all Revolving Credit Borrowings, all conversions of Term Loans or Revolving Credit Loans from one Type to the other, and all continuations of Term Loans or Revolving Credit Loans of the same Type, there shall not be more than seven (7) Interest Periods in effect.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The failure of any Lender to make the Loan to be made by it as part of any Borrowing shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make its Loan on the date of such Borrowing, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Loan to be made by such other Lender on the date of any Borrowing, which for the avoidance of doubt does not limit such Lender's obligations under <u>Section 2.17</u>.

Within the foregoing limits, and subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Borrower's ability to obtain Letters of Credit shall be fully revolving, and accordingly the Borrower may, during the foregoing period, obtain Letters of Credit to replace Letters of Credit that have expired or that have been drawn upon and reimbursed.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain such L/C Issuer from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any Law applicable to such L/C Issuer or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of Law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over such L/C Issuer shall prohibit, or request that such L/C Issuer refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon such L/C Issuer with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which such L/C Issuer is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Closing Date, or shall impose upon such L/C Issuer any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Closing Date and which, in each case, such L/C Issuer in good faith deems material to it;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Each L/C Issuer shall act on behalf of the Revolving Credit Lenders with respect to any Letters of Credit issued by it and the documents associated therewith, and each L/C Issuer shall have all of the benefits and immunities (A) provided to the Administrative Agent in <u>Article IX</u> with respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by such L/C Issuer in connection with Letters of Credit issued by it or proposed to be issued by it and Issuer Documents pertaining to such Letters of Credit as fully as if the term "Administrative Agent" as used in <u>Article IX</u> included each L/C Issuer with respect to such acts or omissions, and (B) as additionally provided herein with respect to each L/C Issuer.

Such Letter of Credit Application must be received by the applicable L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) at least five (5) Business Days (or such shorter period as such L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent may agree in a particular instance in their sole discretion) prior to the proposed issuance date or date of amendment, as the case may be. In the case of a request for an initial issuance of a Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail reasonably satisfactory to the applicable L/C Issuer: (A) the proposed issuance date of the requested Letter of Credit (which shall be a Business Day not later than 30 days prior to the Maturity Date of the Revolving Credit Facility, unless the Administrative Agent and the applicable L/C Issuer otherwise agree); (B) the amount thereof; (C) the expiry date thereof; (D) the name and address of the beneficiary thereof; (E) the documents to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; (F) the full text of any certificate or other documents to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; (G) the Person for whose account the requested Letter of Credit is to be issued (which must be the Parent or a Restricted Subsidiary); and (H) such other matters as the applicable L/C Issuer may reasonably request. In the case of a request for an amendment of any outstanding Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail reasonably satisfactory to the applicable L/C Issuer: (1) the Letter of Credit to be amended; (2) the proposed date of amendment thereof (which shall be a Business Day); (3) the nature of the proposed amendment and (4) such other matters as the applicable L/C Issuer may reasonably request.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Promptly following delivery of any Letter of Credit Application to the applicable L/C Issuer, the Borrower will confirm with the Administrative Agent that the Administrative Agent has received a copy of such Letter of Credit Application and, if the Administrative Agent has not received a copy of such Letter of Credit Application, then the Borrower will provide the Administrative Agent with a copy thereof. Upon receipt by such L/C Issuer of confirmation from the Administrative Agent that the requested issuance or amendment is permitted in accordance with the terms hereof, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, such L/C Issuer shall, on the requested date, issue a Letter of Credit for the account of the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary (as designated in the Letter of Credit Application) or enter into the applicable amendment, as the case may be. Immediately upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit under a Revolving Tranche, each Revolving Credit Lender under such Revolving Tranche shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the applicable L/C Issuer a risk participation in such Letter of Credit in an amount equal to such Lender's Pro Rata Share of such Revolving Tranche multiplied by the amount of such Letter of Credit.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; If the Borrower on behalf of the applicable Parent or Restricted Subsidiary so requests in any applicable Letter of Credit Application, the applicable L/C Issuer may, in its sole and absolute discretion, agree to issue a Letter of Credit that has automatic extension provisions for successive periods of up to twelve (12) months (each, an "<u>Auto-Extension Letter of Credit</u>"); <u>provided</u> that any such Auto-Extension Letter of Credit must permit such L/C Issuer to prevent any such extension at least once in each twelve-month period (commencing with the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit) by giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof not later than a day in each such twelve-month period to be agreed upon at the time such Letter of Credit is issued. Unless otherwise directed by the applicable L/C Issuer, the Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request to such L/C Issuer for any such extension. Once an Auto-Extension Letter of Credit has been issued, the Revolving Credit Lenders under the applicable Revolving Tranche shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the applicable L/C Issuer to permit the extension of such Letter of Credit at any time to an expiry date not later than the Letter of Credit Expiration Date (unless such Letter of Credit has been Cash Collateralized by the applicant requesting such extension in accordance with <u>Section 2.16</u> prior to the Letter of Credit Expiration Date); <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that such L/C Issuer shall not permit any such extension if such L/C Issuer has determined that it would have no obligation at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its extended form under the terms hereof (by reason of the provisions of <u>Section 2.03(a)(ii)</u> or otherwise).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Promptly after its delivery of any Letter of Credit or any amendment to a Letter of Credit to an advising bank with respect thereto or to the beneficiary thereof, the applicable L/C Issuer will also (A) deliver to the Borrower, the applicable Parent or Restricted Subsidiary and the Administrative Agent a non-negotiable copy of such Letter of Credit or amendment and (B) the Administrative Agent in turn will notify each Revolving Credit Lender under the applicable Revolving Tranche of such issuance or amendment and the amount of such Revolving Credit Lender's Pro Rata Share therein.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth above, the issuance of any Letters of Credit by any L/C Issuer under this Agreement shall be subject to such reasonable additional letter of credit issuance procedures and requirements as may be required by such L/C Issuer's internal letter of credit issuance policies and procedures, in its sole discretion, as in effect at the time of such issuance, including requirements with respect to the prior receipt by such L/C Issuer of customary "know your customer" information regarding a prospective account party or applicant that is not the Borrower hereunder, as well as regarding any beneficiaries of a requested Letter of Credit.

Each L/C Issuer shall notify the Borrower on the date of any payment by such L/C Issuer under a Letter of Credit (each such date, an "<u>Honor Date</u>"), and the Borrower shall reimburse such L/C Issuer through the Administrative Agent in an amount equal to the amount of such drawing no later than on the next succeeding Business Day (and any reimbursement made on such next Business Day shall be taken into account in computing interest and fees in respect of any such Letter of Credit) after the Borrower shall have received notice of such payment, with interest on the amount so paid or disbursed by such L/C Issuer, to the extent not reimbursed prior to 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the applicable Honor Date, from and including the date paid or disbursed to but excluding the date such L/C Issuer was reimbursed by the Borrower therefor at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate as in effect from time to time *plus* the Applicable Margin as in effect from time to time for Revolving Credit Loans that are maintained as Base Rate Loans. If the Borrower fails to so reimburse such L/C Issuer on such next Business Day, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Revolving Credit Lender under the applicable Revolving Tranche of the Honor Date, the amount of the unreimbursed drawing (the "<u>Unreimbursed Amount</u>"), and the amount of such Revolving Credit Lender's Pro Rata Share thereof. In such event, in the case of an Unreimbursed Amount, the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Revolving Credit Borrowing of Base Rate Loans under such Revolving Tranche to be disbursed on such date in an amount equal to the Unreimbursed Amount, in accordance with the requirements of <u>Section 2.02</u> but without regard to the minimum and multiples specified in <u>Section 2.02</u> for the principal amount of Base Rate Loans, but subject to the amount of the unutilized portion of the Revolving Credit Commitments under such Revolving Tranche and the conditions set forth in <u>Section 4.02</u> (other than the delivery of a Committed Loan Notice). Any notice given by an L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent pursuant to this <u>Section 2.03(d)(i)</u> may be given by telephone if promptly confirmed in writing; <u>provided</u> that the lack of such a prompt confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Each Revolving Credit Lender (including each Lender acting as an L/C Issuer) under the applicable Revolving Tranche shall upon any notice pursuant to <u>Section 2.03(d)(i)</u> make funds available (and the Administrative Agent may apply Cash Collateral provided for this purpose) for the account of the applicable L/C Issuer, at the Administrative Agent's Office in an amount equal to, and in the same currency as, its applicable Pro Rata Share of the Unreimbursed Amount not later than 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Business Day specified in such notice by the Administrative Agent, whereupon, subject to the provisions of <u>Section 2.03(d)(iii)</u>, each Revolving Credit Lender under such Revolving Tranche that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Revolving Credit Loan in the form of a Base Rate Loan to the Borrower in such amount. The Administrative Agent shall promptly remit the funds so received to the applicable L/C Issuer.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; With respect to any Unreimbursed Amount that is not fully refinanced by a Revolving Credit Borrowing of Base Rate Loans because the conditions set forth in <u>Section 4.02</u> cannot be satisfied or for any other reason, the Borrower shall be deemed to have incurred from the applicable L/C Issuer an L/C Borrowing in the amount of the Unreimbursed Amount that is not so refinanced, which L/C Borrowing shall be due and payable on demand (together with interest) and shall bear interest at the Default Rate then applicable to Base Rate Revolving Credit Loans. In such event, each applicable Revolving Credit Lender's payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable L/C Issuer pursuant to <u>Section 2.03(d)(ii)</u> shall be deemed payment in respect of its participation in such L/C Borrowing and shall constitute an L/C Advance from such Lender in satisfaction of its participation obligation under this <u>Section</u> <u>2.03</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Until each Revolving Credit Lender under the applicable Revolving Tranche funds its Revolving Credit Loan or L/C Advance pursuant to this <u>Section 2.03(d)</u> to reimburse the applicable L/C Issuer for any amount drawn under any Letter of Credit, interest in respect of such Lender's applicable Pro Rata Share of such amount shall be solely for the account of such L/C Issuer.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Each applicable Revolving Credit Lender's obligation to make Revolving Credit Loans or L/C Advances to reimburse the applicable L/C Issuer for amounts drawn under Letters of Credit, as contemplated by this <u>Section 2.03(d)</u>, shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against such L/C Issuer, the Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or (C) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that each Revolving Credit Lender's obligation to make Revolving Credit Loans pursuant to this <u>Section 2.03(d)</u> is subject to the conditions set forth in <u>Section 4.02</u> (other than delivery by the Borrower of a Committed Loan Notice). No such making of an L/C Advance shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Borrower to reimburse the applicable L/C Issuer for the amount of any payment made by the applicable L/C Issuer under any Letter of Credit, together with interest as provided herein.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; If any applicable Revolving Credit Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable L/C Issuer any amount required to be paid by such Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this <u>Section 2.03(d)</u> by the time specified in <u>Section</u> <u>2.03(d)(ii)</u>, then, without limiting the other provisions of this Agreement, such L/C Issuer shall be entitled to recover from such Lender (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to such L/C Issuer at a rate per annum equal to the greater of the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect and a rate reasonably determined by such L/C Issuer in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, plus any reasonable administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by such L/C Issuer in connection with the foregoing. If such Lender pays such principal amount, the amount so paid (less interest and fees) shall constitute such Lender's Loan included in the relevant Borrowing or L/C Advance in respect of the relevant L/C Borrowing, as the case may be. A certificate of the applicable L/C Issuer submitted to any Revolving Credit Lender (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this <u>Section 2.03(d)(vi)</u> shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; If any payment received by the Administrative Agent for the account of an L/C Issuer pursuant to <u>Section 2.03(d)(i)</u> is required to be returned under any of the circumstances described in <u>Section 10.06</u> (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by such L/C Issuer in its discretion), each applicable Revolving Credit Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such L/C Issuer its applicable Pro Rata Share thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned by such Lender, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect. The obligations of the Lenders under this clause shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

None of the applicable L/C Issuer, any Agent-Related Person nor any of the respective correspondents, participants or assignees of the applicable L/C Issuer shall be liable to any Lender under any Revolving Tranche for (i) any action taken or omitted in connection herewith at the request or with the approval of the Revolving Credit Lenders under such Revolving Tranche or the Majority Lenders under such Revolving Tranche, as applicable; (ii) any action taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment or (iii) the due execution, effectiveness, validity or enforceability of any document or instrument related to any Letter of Credit or Letter of Credit Application. The Borrower hereby assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee with respect to its use of any Letter of Credit; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that this assumption is not intended to, and shall not, preclude the Borrower from pursuing such rights and remedies as they may have against the beneficiary or transferee at Law or under any other agreement.

In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the applicable L/C Issuer may, in its sole discretion, either accept documents that appear on their face to be in order and make payment upon such documents, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, and such L/C Issuer shall not be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit.

Such Letter of Credit fees shall be computed on a quarterly basis in arrears and shall be due and payable on the first Business Day following the last day of each fiscal quarter, in respect of the quarterly period then ending (or portion thereof, as applicable), commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of Credit, on the Letter of Credit Expiration Date and thereafter on demand.

Each such notice shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment, the Tranche of Loans to be prepaid, the Type(s) of Loans to be prepaid and, if Term SOFR Loans are to be prepaid, the Interest Period(s) of such Loans (except that if the class of Loans to be prepaid includes both Base Rate Loans and Term SOFR Loans, absent direction by the Borrower, the applicable prepayment shall be applied first to Base Rate Loans to the full extent thereof before application to Term SOFR Loans, in each case in a manner that minimizes the amount payable by the Borrower in respect of such prepayment pursuant to <u>Section 3.06</u>). The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender of its receipt of each such notice, and of the amount of such Lender's ratable portion of such prepayment (based on such Lender's ratable share of the relevant Facility). If such notice is given by the Borrower, subject to <u>clause (ii)</u> below, the Borrower shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein. Any prepayment of a Term SOFR Loan shall be accompanied by all accrued interest thereon, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to <u>Section 3.06</u>. Subject to <u>Section 2.17</u>, each prepayment of outstanding Term Loan Tranches pursuant to this <u>Section</u> <u>2.05(a)</u> shall be applied to the Term Loan Tranche or Term Loan Tranches designated on such notice on a <u>pro rata</u> basis within such Term Loan Tranche.

The Borrower may notify the Administrative Agent of any event giving rise to a prepayment under <u>Section 2.05(b)(ii)</u> at least five Business Days prior to the date of such prepayment. Each such notice shall specify the date of such prepayment and provide a reasonably detailed calculation of the amount of such prepayment that is required to be made under <u>Section 2.05(b)(ii)</u> (the "<u>Prepayment Amount</u>"). The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Appropriate Lender of the contents of any such prepayment notice so received from the Borrower, including the date on which such prepayment is to be made (the "<u>Prepayment Date</u>").

If any Appropriate Lender does not give a notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to such fourth Business Day informing the Administrative Agent that it declines to accept the applicable prepayment, then such Lender will be deemed to have accepted such prepayment. On any Prepayment Date, an amount equal to the Prepayment Amount minus the portion thereof allocable to Declining Lenders, in each case for such Prepayment Date, shall be paid to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower and applied by the Administrative Agent ratably to prepay Term Loans under the Term Loan Tranches owing to Appropriate Lenders (other than Declining Lenders) in the manner described in <u>Section</u> <u>2.05(b)</u> for such prepayment. Any amounts that would otherwise have been applied to prepay Term Loans or Specified Refinancing Term Loans owing to Declining Lenders shall be retained by the Borrower (such amounts, "<u>Declined Amounts</u>").

Any such notice of termination or reduction of commitments pursuant to this <u>Section 2.06(a)</u> may state that it is conditioned upon the occurrence or non-occurrence of any event specified therein (including the effectiveness of other credit facilities), in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by written notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. For the avoidance of doubt, (i) upon termination of the Aggregate Commitments and payment in full of all Obligations in cash and in immediately available funds (other than (A) contingent indemnification obligations as to which no claim has been asserted and (B) obligations and liabilities under Secured Cash Management Agreements and Secured Hedge Agreements) and the expiration without any pending drawing or termination of all Letters of Credit (other than Letters of Credit which have been Cash Collateralized or as to which arrangements satisfactory to the L/C Issuer that issued such Letters of Credit shall have been made), this Agreement shall automatically terminate and the Administrative Agent shall comply with <u>Section 9.01(c)</u> and <u>Section 9.11</u>.

(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Mandatory</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The Aggregate Commitments under a Term Loan Tranche shall be automatically and permanently reduced to zero on the date of the initial incurrence of Term Loans under such Term Loan Tranche, which in the case of the Initial Term Commitments shall be the Closing Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Upon the incurrence by the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary of any Specified Refinancing Revolving Credit Commitments, the Revolving Credit Commitments of the Lenders under the Tranche of Revolving Credit Loans being refinanced shall be automatically and permanently reduced on a ratable basis by an amount equal to 100% of such Specified Refinancing Revolving Credit Commitments.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; If after giving effect to any reduction or termination of Revolving Credit Commitments under this <u>Section 2.06</u>, the Letter of Credit Sublimit exceeds the amount of the Revolving Credit Facility at such time, the Letter of Credit Sublimit shall be automatically reduced by the amount of such excess.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments with respect to any Tranche of the Revolving Credit Facility shall automatically and permanently be reduced to zero on the Maturity Date with respect to such Tranche of the Revolving Credit Facility.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Application of Commitment Reductions; Payment of Fees</u>. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the applicable Lenders of the applicable Facility of any termination or reduction of the Commitments under any Term Loan Tranche, the Letter of Credit Sublimit or the Revolving Credit Commitments under any Revolving Tranche under this <u>Section 2.06</u>. Upon any reduction of Commitments under a Facility or a Tranche thereof, the Commitment of each Lender under such Facility or Tranche thereof shall be reduced by such Lender's ratable share of the amount by which such Facility or Tranche thereof is reduced (other than the termination of the Commitment of any Lender as provided in <u>Section</u> <u>3.08</u>). All commitment fees accrued until the effective date of any termination of the Aggregate Commitments and unpaid, shall be paid on the effective date of such termination.

Section 2.07&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Repayment of Loans</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Initial Term Loans</u>. The Borrower shall repay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the applicable Term Lenders on the Maturity Date for the Initial Term Loans, the aggregate principal amount of all Initial Term Loans outstanding on such date; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that

(i) if the date scheduled for any principal repayment is not a Business Day, such principal repayment shall be repaid on the immediately preceding Business Day, and (ii) the final principal repayment of the Initial Term Loans shall be on the Maturity Date for the Initial Term Loans and in any event shall be in an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of all Initial Term Loans outstanding on such date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Revolving Credit Loans</u>. The Borrower shall repay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the Appropriate Lenders on the applicable Maturity Date for the Revolving Credit Facilities of a given Tranche the aggregate principal amount of all of its Revolving Credit Loans of such Tranche outstanding on such date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; All Loans shall be repaid, whether pursuant to this <u>Section 2.07</u> or otherwise, in the currency in which they were made.

Section 2.08&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Interest</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Subject to the provisions of the following sentence, (i) each Term SOFR Loan under a Facility shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof for each Interest Period at a rate per annum equal to the sum of (A) the Adjusted Term SOFR for such Interest Period plus (B) the Applicable Margin for Term SOFR Loans under such Facility; and (ii) each Base Rate Loan under a Facility shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the applicable borrowing date or conversion date, as the case may be, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of (A) the Base Rate plus (B) the Applicable Margin for Base Rate Loans under such Facility. The Borrower shall pay interest on all overdue Obligations hereunder, which shall include all Obligations following an acceleration pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>8.02</u> (including an automatic acceleration) at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws. Accrued and unpaid interest on past due amounts (including interest on past due interest) shall be due and payable upon demand.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Accrued interest on each Loan shall be due and payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date applicable thereto and at such other times as may be specified herein; <u>provided</u> that in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan (other than Revolving Credit Loans bearing interest based on the Base Rate that are repaid or prepaid without any corresponding termination or reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment. Interest hereunder shall be due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof before and after judgment, and before and after the commencement of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law.

(c)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Interest on each Loan shall be payable in Dollars.

(d)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; All computations of interest hereunder shall be made in accordance with <u>Section 2.10</u> of this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Conforming Changes</u>. In connection with the use or administration of SOFR or Term SOFR, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the effectiveness of any Conforming Changes in connection with the use or administration of SOFR or Term SOFR, as applicable.

Section 2.09&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Fees</u>. In addition to certain fees described in <u>Sections 2.03(h)</u> and <u>(i)</u>:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Commitment Fee</u>. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Credit Lender in accordance with its Pro Rata Share of each Tranche of the Revolving Credit Facility, a commitment fee in Dollars equal to the Applicable Commitment Fee <u>multiplied</u> <u>by</u> the actual daily amount by which the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments exceed the sum of (A) the Outstanding Amount of Revolving Credit Loans outstanding <u>and</u> (B) the Outstanding Amount of L/C Obligations, subject to adjustment as provided in <u>Section 2.17</u>. The commitment fee shall accrue at all times from the Closing Date until the Maturity Date for the Revolving Tranche, and shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the first Business Day of each April, July, October and January commencing with the first Business Day immediately after the end of the first full fiscal quarter to end following the Closing Date, and on the Maturity Date for the Revolving Tranche.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Other Fees</u>. The Borrower shall pay to the Lenders, the Lead Arranger and the Administrative Agent such fees as shall have been separately agreed upon in writing in the amounts and at the times so specified.

Section 2.10&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Computation of Interest and Fees; Retroactive Adjustments of Applicable Margin</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; All computations of interest for Base Rate Loans shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed. All other computations of fees and interest shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed (which results in more fees or interest, as applicable, being paid than if computed on the basis of a 365-day year). Interest shall accrue on each Loan for the day on which the Loan is made, and shall not accrue on a Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day on which the Loan or such portion is paid; <u>provided</u>, that any Loan that is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall, subject to <u>Section 2.12(a)</u>, bear interest for one day. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate or fee hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. The Administrative Agent shall, at the request of the Borrower, deliver to the Borrower a statement showing the quotations used by the Administrative Agent in determining any interest rate hereunder.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; If, as a result of any restatement of or other adjustment to the financial statements of Holdings or the Parent or for any other reason, the Borrower or the Lenders determine that (i) the Consolidated Total Net Leverage Ratio as calculated by the Borrower as of any applicable date was inaccurate and (ii) a proper calculation of such ratio would have resulted in higher interest and/or fees for any period, the Borrower shall be obligated to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Lenders or the applicable L/C Issuer, as the case may be, promptly on demand by the Administrative Agent (or, after the occurrence of an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to the Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, automatically and with any such demand by the Administrative Agent being excused), an amount equal to the excess of the amount of interest and fees that should have been paid for such period over the amount of interest and fees actually paid for such period. This clause shall not limit the rights of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, or the applicable L/C Issuer, as the case may be, under <u>Section 2.03(d)(iii)</u>, <u>Section 2.03(h)</u> or <u>(i)</u>, <u>Section</u> <u>2.08(b)</u> or under <u>Article VIII</u>. Except in any case where a demand is excused as provided above, any additional interest and fees under this <u>Section 2.10(b)</u> shall not be due and payable until a demand is made for such payment by the Administrative Agent and accordingly, any nonpayment of such interest and fees as result of any such inaccuracy shall not constitute a Default (whether retroactively or otherwise), and none of such additional amounts shall be deemed overdue or accrue interest at the Default Rate, in each case at any time prior to the date that is five Business Days following such demand.

Section 2.11&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Evidence of Indebtedness</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The Credit Extensions made by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by such Lender and evidenced by one or more entries in the Register maintained by the Administrative Agent, acting solely for purposes of United States Treasury Regulations Section 5f.103-1(c) and proposed United States Treasury Regulations Section 1.163-5(b)(1), as a non- fiduciary agent for the Borrower, in each case in the ordinary course of business. The accounts or records maintained by each Lender shall be prima facie evidence absent manifest error of the amount of the Credit Extensions made by the Lenders to the Borrower and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit the obligation of the Borrower hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Obligations. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the Register in respect of such matters, the Register shall control in the absence of manifest error. Upon the written request of any Lender made through the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender (through the Administrative Agent) a Note payable to such Lender, which shall evidence such Lender's Loans in addition to such accounts or records. Each Lender may attach schedules to its Note and endorse thereon the date, Type (if applicable), amount and maturity of its Loans and payments with respect thereto.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; In addition to the accounts and records referred to in <u>Section 2.11(a)</u>, each Lender and the Administrative Agent shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice accounts or records and, in the case of the Administrative Agent, entries in the Register, evidencing the purchases and sales by such Lender of participations in Letters of Credit. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by the Administrative Agent and the accounts and records of any Lender in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Entries made in good faith by the Administrative Agent in the Register pursuant to <u>Section 2.11(a)</u>, and by each Lender in its accounts or records pursuant to <u>Sections 2.11(a)</u> and <u>(b)</u>, shall be prima facie evidence of the amount of principal and interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to, in the case of the Register, each Lender and, in the case of such accounts or records, such Lender, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, absent manifest error; <u>provided</u> that the failure of the Administrative Agent or such Lender to make an entry, or any finding that an entry is incorrect, in the Register or such accounts or records shall not limit the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

Section 2.12&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Payments Generally; Administrative Agent's Clawback</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>General</u>. All payments to be made by the Borrower shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the Borrower hereunder shall be made to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the Administrative Agent's Office in Dollars and in immediately available funds not later than 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date specified herein. The Administrative Agent will promptly distribute to each Lender its ratable share in respect of the relevant Facility or Tranche thereof (or other applicable share as provided herein) of such payment in like funds as received by wire transfer to such Lender's Lending Office. All payments received by the Administrative Agent after 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) shall be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. If any payment to be made by the Borrower shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest or fees, as the case may be; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that, if such extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of Term SOFR Loans to be made in the next succeeding calendar month, such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; (i)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Funding by Lenders; Presumption by Administrative Agent</u>. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing of Term SOFR Loans (or, in the case of any Term Borrowing or Revolving Credit Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, prior to 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date of such Borrowing) that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender's share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with and at the time required by <u>Section 2.02(b)</u> and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if any Lender does not in fact make its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then such Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand an amount equal to such applicable share in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (A) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, plus any reasonable administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Administrative Agent in connection with the foregoing and (B) in the case of a payment to be made by the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to Base Rate Loans under the applicable Facility. If both the Borrower and such Lender pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Borrower the amount of such interest paid by the Borrower for such period. If such Lender pays its share of the applicable Borrowing to the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid (less interest and fees) shall constitute such Lender's Loan included in such Borrowing. Any payment by the Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim the Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make its share of any Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Payments by the Borrower; Presumptions by Administrative Agent</u>. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or an L/C Issuer hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Appropriate Lenders or the applicable L/C Issuer, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower does not in fact make such payment, then each of the Appropriate Lenders or the applicable L/C Issuer, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or such L/C Issuer, in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed by the Administrative Agent to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, plus any reasonable administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Administrative Agent in connection with the foregoing.

A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender or the Borrower with respect to any amount owing under this <u>Section 2.12(b)</u> shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Failure to Satisfy Conditions Precedent</u>. If any Lender makes available to the Administrative Agent funds for any Loan to be made by such Lender as provided in the foregoing provisions of this <u>Article II</u>, and such funds are not made available to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent because the conditions to the applicable Credit Extension set forth in <u>Article IV</u> are not satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms hereof, the Administrative Agent shall return such funds (in like funds as received from such Lender) to such Lender on demand, without interest.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Obligations of the Lenders Several</u>. The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Loans, to fund participations in Letters of Credit and to make payments pursuant to <u>Section 9.07</u> are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan or to fund any such participation or to make any payment under <u>Section 9.07</u> on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Loan or, to fund its participation or to make its payment under <u>Section 9.07</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Funding Source</u>. Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Insufficient Funds</u>. If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, L/C Borrowings, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) <u>first</u>, toward payment of interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) <u>second</u>, toward payment of principal and L/C Borrowings then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal and L/C Borrowings then due to such parties.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Unallocated Funds</u>. If the Administrative Agent receives funds for application to the Obligations of the Loan Parties under or in respect of the Loan Documents under circumstances for which the Loan Documents do not specify the manner in which such funds are to be applied, the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, elect to distribute such funds to each of the Lenders in accordance with such Lender's ratable share of the sum of (a) the Outstanding Amount of all Loans outstanding at such time and (b) the Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations outstanding at such time, in repayment or prepayment of such of the outstanding Loans or other Obligations then owing to such Lender.

------

Section 2.13&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Sharing of Payments</u>. If, other than as expressly provided elsewhere herein (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender), any Lender shall obtain on account of the Loans made by it, or the participations in L/C Obligations held by it, any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of setoff, or otherwise) in excess of its ratable share (or other share contemplated hereunder) thereof, such Lender shall immediately (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact and (b) purchase from the other Lenders such participations in the Loans made by them and/or such subparticipations in the participations in L/C Obligations held by them, as the case may be, as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment in respect of such Loans or such participations, as the case may be, <u>pro</u> <u>rata</u> with each of them; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from the purchasing Lender under any of the circumstances described in <u>Section 10.06</u> (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the purchasing Lender in its discretion), such purchase shall to that extent be rescinded and each other Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price paid therefor, together with an amount equal to such paying Lender's ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such paying Lender's required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered, without further interest thereon. The Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender may, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of setoff, but subject to <u>Section 10.09</u>) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation. The Administrative Agent will keep records (which shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error) of participations purchased under this <u>Section 2.13</u> and will in each case notify the Lenders following any such purchases or repayments. Each Lender that purchases a participation pursuant to this <u>Section 2.13</u> shall from and after such purchase have the right to give all notices, requests, demands, directions and other communications under this Agreement with respect to the portion of the Obligations purchased to the same extent as though the purchasing Lender were the original owner of the Obligations purchased. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of this Section shall not be construed to apply to (A) the application of Cash Collateral provided for in <u>Section 2.16</u>, (B) the assignments and participations described in <u>Section 10.07</u>, (C) any Specified Refinancing Debt in accordance with <u>Section 2.18</u>, (D) any loan modification offer described in <u>Section 10.01</u>, or (E) any applicable circumstances contemplated by <u>Sections 2.05(b)</u>, <u>2.17</u> or <u>3.08</u>.

The Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to enter into amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the Borrower as may be necessary in order to establish any Extended Loans and to make such technical amendments as may be necessary or appropriate in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower in connection with the establishment of such Extended Loans, in each case on terms consistent with and/or to effect the provisions of this <u>Section</u> 2.20.

Section 3.01&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Taxes</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower or any other Loan Party hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable Law. If any applicable Law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from or in respect of any such payment, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, the sum payable by the Borrower or other applicable Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that after all such deductions or withholdings for Indemnified Taxes have been made (including such deductions and withholdings for Indemnified Taxes applicable to additional sums payable under this <u>Section 3.01</u>) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; In addition but without duplication, the Loan Parties shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes. Any payment by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party under any Loan Document shall be exclusive of value added Tax chargeable thereon, and any and all such value added Tax shall be borne and paid by such Loan Party.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The Loan Parties shall jointly and severally indemnify each Recipient, within 10 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this <u>Section 3.01</u>) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable out-of-pocket expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability (together with a reasonable explanation thereof) delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Within 30 days after any payment of Taxes by any Loan Party to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this <u>Section 3.01</u>, such Loan Party shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; If any Recipient determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Indemnified Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this <u>Section</u> <u>3.01</u> (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this <u>Section 3.01</u>), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this <u>Section 3.01</u> with respect to the Indemnified Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of- pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall promptly repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this <u>clause (e)</u> (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this <u>clause (e)</u>, in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this <u>clause (e)</u> the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This <u>clause (e)</u> shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender as a result of a request by the Borrower under this <u>Section 3.01(f)</u>.

In addition, any Recipient, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Recipient is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in <u>Section</u> <u>3.01(g)(ii)(A)</u>, <u>(ii)(B)</u> and <u>(ii)(D)</u>) shall not be required if in the Lender's reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense, would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender or if such Lender cannot obtain, in a reasonable manner (as determined in the sole discretion of such Lender), any information requested by the Borrower.

(ii)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,

Each Recipient agrees that if any documentation it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall promptly update and deliver such form or certification to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal ineligibility to do so.

Each Recipient hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to deliver to the Loan Parties and to any successor Administrative Agent any documentation provided by such Recipient to the Administrative Agent pursuant to <u>Section 3.01(g)</u>.

Section 3.02&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>[Reserved]</u>.

Section 3.03 <u>Illegality</u>. If any Lender determines that any law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its lending office to make, maintain or fund Loans whose interest is determined by reference to Term SOFR, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon Term SOFR, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent, (i) any obligation of such Lender to make or continue Term SOFR Loans or to convert Base Rate Loans to Term SOFR Loans shall be suspended, and (ii) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender making or maintaining Base Rate Loans the interest rate on which is determined by reference to the Adjusted Term SOFR component of the Base Rate, the interest rate on which Base Rate Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the Adjusted Term SOFR component of the Base Rate, in each case until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, (x) the Borrower shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prepay or convert all Term SOFR Loans of such Lender to Base Rate Loans (the interest rate on which Base Rate Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the Adjusted Term SOFR component of the Base Rate), either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Term SOFR Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Term SOFR Loans and (y) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender determining or charging interest rates based upon Adjusted Term SOFR, the Administrative Agent shall during the period of such suspension compute the Base Rate Loan applicable to such Lender without reference to the Adjusted Term SOFR component thereof until the Administrative Agent is advised in writing by such Lender that it is no longer illegal for such Lender to determine or charge interest rates based upon Adjusted Term SOFR. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted.

------

Section 3.04&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Inability to Determine Rates</u>.

If any Lender reasonably determines that (i) for any reason adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining Adjusted Term SOFR for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Term SOFR Loan, or (ii) Adjusted Term SOFR applicable for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Term SOFR Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lender of funding such Loan, then it will promptly so notify Borrower. Thereafter, the obligation of such Lender to make, maintain or convert Loans into Term SOFR Loans hereunder shall be suspended until such Lender revokes such notice in writing and each Term SOFR Loan that has been affected will automatically, on the last day of the then-existing Interest Period therefor, convert into a Base Rate Loan. Upon receipt of such notice, Borrower may revoke any Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation then submitted by it. If Borrower does not revoke such notice, such Lender shall make, convert or continue the Loans, as proposed by Borrower, in the amount specified in the applicable notice submitted by Borrower, but such Loans shall be made, converted or continued as Base Rate Loans instead of Term SOFR Loans.

Section 3.05 <u>Increased Cost and Reduced Return; Capital Adequacy and Liquidity</u> <u>Requirements</u>.

If a Lender fails to give written notice fifteen days prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date, such additional interest or cost shall be due and payable 15 days from receipt of such written notice.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; For purposes of this <u>Section 3.05</u>, (i) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, regulations, guidelines or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith and (ii) all requests, rules, guidelines, requirements and directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities (other than foreign regulatory authorities in Switzerland), in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall, in each case, be deemed to have gone into effect after the date hereof, regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued.

Upon written demand of any Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) from time to time, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for calculating such compensation, the Borrower shall promptly compensate such Lender for and hold such Lender harmless from any loss, cost or expense incurred by it as a result of:

Section 3.07&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Matters Applicable to All Requests for Compensation</u>.

In determining such amount, such Agent or such Lender may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods.

The provisions of this <u>clause (b)</u> shall not affect or postpone any Obligations of the Borrower or rights of such Lender pursuant to <u>Section 3.05</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; If any Lender requests compensation by the Borrower under <u>Section 3.05</u>, the Borrower may, by notice to such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), suspend the obligation of such Lender to make or continue from one Interest Period to another Term SOFR Loans, or to convert Base Rate Loans into Term SOFR Loans, until the event or condition giving rise to such request ceases to be in effect (in which case the provisions of <u>Section 3.07(e)</u> shall be applicable); <u>provided</u> that such suspension shall not affect the right of such Lender to receive the compensation so requested.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; If the obligation of any Lender to make or continue from one Interest Period to another any Term SOFR Loan, or to convert Base Rate Loans into Term SOFR Loans shall be suspended pursuant to <u>Section 3.07(c)</u> hereof, such Lender's Term SOFR Loans shall be automatically converted into Base Rate Loans on the last day(s) of the then current Interest Period(s) for such Term SOFR Loans (or, in the case of an immediate conversion required by <u>Section 3.03</u>, on such earlier date as required by Law) and, unless and until such Lender gives notice as provided below that the circumstances specified in <u>Section 3.03</u>, <u>3.04</u> or <u>3.05</u> hereof that gave rise to such conversion no longer exist:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; to the extent that such Lender's Term SOFR Loans have been so converted, all payments and prepayments of principal that would otherwise be applied to such Lender's Term SOFR Loans shall be applied instead to its Base Rate Loans; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; all Loans that would otherwise be made or continued from one Interest Period to another by such Lender as Term SOFR Loans shall be made or continued instead as Base Rate Loans, and all Base Rate Loans of such Lender that would otherwise be converted into Term SOFR Loans shall remain as Base Rate Loans.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; If any Lender gives notice to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) that the circumstances specified in <u>Section 3.03</u>, <u>3.04</u> or <u>3.05</u> hereof that gave rise to the conversion of such Lender's Term SOFR Loans pursuant to this <u>Section 3.07</u> no longer exist (which such Lender agrees to do promptly upon such circumstances ceasing to exist) at a time when Term SOFR Loans made by other Lenders are outstanding, such Lender's Base Rate Loans shall be automatically converted, on the first day(s) of the next succeeding Interest Period(s) for such outstanding Term SOFR Loans, to the extent necessary so that, after giving effect thereto, all Loans held by the Lenders holding Term SOFR Loans and by such Lender are held <u>pro</u> <u>rata</u> (as to principal amounts, interest rate basis, and Interest Periods) in accordance with their respective Commitments.

Section 3.08&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Replacement of Lenders under Certain Circumstances</u>.

Any Lender being replaced pursuant to this <u>Section 3.08(a)</u> shall (i) execute and deliver an Assignment and Assumption with respect to such Lender's Commitment and outstanding Loans and participations in L/C Obligations and (ii) deliver any Notes evidencing such Loans to the Borrower (for return to the Borrower) or the Administrative Agent. Pursuant to such Assignment and Assumption, (A) the assignee Lender shall acquire all or a portion, as the case may be, of the assigning Lender's Commitment and outstanding Loans and participations in L/C Obligations, (B) all Obligations relating to the Loans and participations (and the amount of all accrued interest, fees and premiums in respect thereof) so assigned shall be paid in full by the assignee Lender to such assigning Lender concurrently with such assignment and assumption and (C) upon such payment and, if so requested by the assignee Lender, the assigning Lender shall deliver to the assignee Lender the applicable Note or Notes executed by the Borrower, the assignee Lender shall become a Lender hereunder and the assigning Lender shall cease to constitute a Lender hereunder with respect to such assigned Loans, Commitments and participations, except with respect to indemnification provisions under this Agreement, which shall survive as to such assigning Lender. In connection with any such replacement, if any such Replaceable Lender does not execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a duly executed Assignment and Assumption reflecting such replacement within two Business Days of the date on which the assignee Lender executes and delivers such Assignment and Assumption to such Replaceable Lender, then such Replaceable Lender shall be deemed to have executed and delivered such Assignment and Assumption without any action on the part of the Replaceable Lender. In connection with the replacement of any Lender pursuant to this <u>Section 3.08(a)</u>, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such amounts as may be required pursuant to <u>Section 3.06</u>.

For purposes of determining compliance with this <u>Section 7.01</u>, in the event that an item of Indebtedness (or any portion thereof) meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of Permitted Debt, the Parent shall, in its sole discretion, at the time of incurrence or issuance, divide, classify or reclassify, or at any later time divide, classify or reclassify, such item of Indebtedness (or any portion thereof) in any manner that complies with this <u>Section 7.01</u>; <u>provided</u> (a) that in the event that an item of Indebtedness (or any portion thereof) meets the criteria of one or more of the categories of Permitted Debt, the Parent will be entitled to only include the amount of such item of Indebtedness (or any portion thereof) in one of the above clauses (or any portion thereof) and such item of Indebtedness (or any portion thereof) shall be treated as having been incurred or existing pursuant to only such clause or clauses (or any portion thereof) without giving pro forma effect to such item (or portion thereof) when calculating the amount of Indebtedness that may be incurred substantially simultaneously pursuant to any other clause; and (b) that all Indebtedness under this Agreement incurred on the Closing Date shall be deemed to have been Incurred pursuant to <u>Section 7.01(a)</u> and the Parent shall not be permitted to reclassify all or any portion of Indebtedness Incurred on the Closing Date pursuant to <u>Section 7.01(a)</u>.

Guarantees of, or obligations in respect of letters of credit relating to, Indebtedness that are otherwise included in the determination of a particular amount of Indebtedness shall not be included in the determination of such amount of Indebtedness; <u>provided</u> that the incurrence of the Indebtedness represented by such guarantee or letter of credit, as the case may be, was in compliance with this <u>Section 7.01</u>. Solely for the purpose of calculating the Consolidated First Lien Net Leverage Ratio, the Consolidated Senior Secured Net Leverage Ratio and the Consolidated Total Net Leverage Ratio for purposes of any Incurrence of Indebtedness under <u>Section 7.01(o)</u> (other than by assumption) or of Permitted Ratio Debt, any cash proceeds from such Indebtedness shall be excluded for purposes of cash netting.

For purposes of determining compliance with any Dollar-denominated restriction on the Incurrence of Indebtedness, the Dollar-equivalent principal amount or liquidation preference, as applicable, of Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date such Indebtedness was Incurred, in the case of term debt, or first committed or first Incurred (whichever yields the lower Dollar-equivalent), in the case of revolving credit debt or such Disqualified Stock; <u>provided</u> that if such Indebtedness is Incurred to refinance other Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency, and such refinancing would cause the applicable Dollar-denominated restriction to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such refinancing, such Dollar-denominated restriction shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount or liquidation preference, as applicable, of such Refinancing Indebtedness does not exceed the principal amount or liquidation preference, as applicable, of such Indebtedness being refinanced (plus unpaid accrued interest and the aggregate amount of premiums (including reasonable tender premiums) and underwriting discounts, defeasance costs and fees, discounts and expenses in connection therewith).

The principal amount or liquidation preference, as applicable, of any Indebtedness Incurred to refinance other Indebtedness if Incurred in a different currency from the Indebtedness being refinanced, shall be calculated based on the currency exchange rate applicable to the currencies in which such respective Indebtedness is denominated that is in effect on the date of such refinancing.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(12)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Investments in Unrestricted Subsidiaries having an aggregate Fair Market Value, taken together with all other Investments made pursuant to this <u>clause (12)</u> that are at the time outstanding, without giving effect to the sale of an Unrestricted Subsidiary to the extent the proceeds of such sale do not consist of cash, Cash Equivalents or marketable securities, not to exceed the greater of (x) $13,500,000 and (y) 10.0% of Four Quarter Consolidated EBITDA (with the Fair Market Value of each Investment being measured at the time made and without giving effect to subsequent changes in value);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(13)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would occur as a consequence thereof, any Restricted Payment so long as immediately after giving effect to the making of such Restricted Payment on a Pro Forma Basis, the Parent's Consolidated Total Net Leverage Ratio does not exceed 0.50:1.00; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(14)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; any payment that is intended to prevent any Junior Financing from being treated as an "applicable high yield discount obligation" within the meaning of Section 163(i)(1) of the Code;

For purposes of <u>clause (8)</u> above, taxes shall include all interest and penalties with respect thereto and all additions thereto.

The Parent will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, amend, modify or change any term or condition of any Junior Financing Document that constitutes Material Indebtedness in any manner that is, taken as a whole, materially adverse to the interests of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders.

As of the Closing Date, all of the Parent's Subsidiaries will be Restricted Subsidiaries. The Parent will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to become an Unrestricted Subsidiary except pursuant to the definition of "Unrestricted Subsidiary." For purposes of designating any Restricted Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, all outstanding Investments by the Parent and its Restricted Subsidiaries (except to the extent repaid) in the Subsidiary so designated will be deemed to be Restricted Payments or Permitted Investments in an amount determined as set forth in the last sentence of the definition of "Investments." Such designation will only be permitted if a Restricted Payment or Permitted Investment in such amount would be permitted at such time and if such Subsidiary otherwise meets the definition of an "Unrestricted Subsidiary". Unrestricted Subsidiaries will not be subject to any of the restrictive covenants set forth in this Agreement.

For purposes of this <u>Section 7.05</u>, if any Investment or Restricted Payment (or a portion thereof) would be permitted pursuant to one or more provisions described above and/or one or more of the exceptions contained in the definition of "Permitted Investments," the Parent may divide and classify such Investment or Restricted Payment (or a portion thereof) in any manner that complies with this <u>Section 7.05</u> and may later divide and reclassify any such Investment or Restricted Payment so long as the Investment or Restricted Payment (as so divided and/or reclassified) would be permitted to be made in reliance on the applicable exception as of the date of such reclassification.

Section 7.06&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Burdensome Agreements</u>. Create or otherwise cause or suffer to exist or become effective any consensual encumbrance or consensual restriction on the ability of any Restricted Subsidiary to:

------

(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; make loans or advances to the Parent or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; create, incur, assume or suffer to exist Liens on the Collateral of such Person for the benefit of the Lenders with respect to the Facilities and the Obligations or under the Loan Documents; or

However, the preceding restrictions will not apply to encumbrances or restrictions existing under or by reason of:

ARTICLE IX.

<u>Administrative Agent and Other Agents</u>

Section 9.01&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Appointment and Authorization of Agents</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Each Lender and L/C Issuer hereby irrevocably appoints Royal Bank of Canada to act on its behalf as Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (subject to the provisions in <u>Section 9.09</u>), and designates and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and each other Loan Document and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The Administrative Agent may perform any of its duties through its officers, directors, agents, employees, or affiliates. The provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and no Loan Party shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere herein or in any other Loan Document no Agent shall have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, nor shall any Agent have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender or participant, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against any Agent. Regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing and without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term "agent" herein and in the other Loan Documents with reference to any Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable Law.

A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender or any L/C Issuer under this <u>clause (i)</u> shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Without limiting immediately preceding <u>clause (i)</u>, each Lender and each L/C Issuer hereby further agrees that if it receives an Erroneous Payment from the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) (x) that is in a different amount than, or on a different date from, that specified in a notice of payment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such Erroneous Payment (an "<u>Erroneous Payment Notice</u>"), (y) that was not preceded or accompanied by an Erroneous Payment Notice, or (z) that such Lender or L/C Issuer otherwise becomes aware was transmitted, or received, in error or by mistake (in whole or in part), in each case, an error has been made (and that it is deemed to have knowledge of such error at the time of receipt of such Erroneous Payment) with respect to such Erroneous Payment, and to the extent permitted by applicable law, such Lender or L/C Issuer shall not assert any right or claim to the Erroneous Payment, and hereby waives, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Administrative Agent for the return of any Erroneous Payments received, including without limitation waiver of any defense based on "discharge for value" or any similar doctrine.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Each party's obligations under this <u>Section 9.03(d)</u> shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent, the termination of the Commitments or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations (or any portion thereof) under any Loan Document.

Section 9.04&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Reliance by Agents</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Each Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, communication, signature, resolution, representation, notice, request, consent, certificate, instrument, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile, telex or telephone message, electronic mail message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution statement or other document or conversation reasonably believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons. Each Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and reasonably believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of such Loan. Each Agent may consult with, and rely upon (and be fully protected in relying upon), advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to any Loan Party), independent accountants and other experts selected by such Agent. Each Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under any Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders (or such greater number of Lenders as may be expressly required hereby in any instance) as it deems appropriate and, if it so requests, it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. Each Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document in accordance with a request or consent of the Required Lenders (or such greater number of Lenders as may be expressly required hereby in any instance) and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders.

(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; For purposes of determining compliance with the conditions specified in <u>Sections 4.01</u> and <u>4.02</u>, each Lender that has signed this Agreement shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted or to be satisfied with, each document or other matter required thereunder to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to a Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from such Lender prior to the proposed Closing Date, specifying its objection thereto.

------

Section 9.05&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Notice of Default</u>. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default, except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest and fees required to be paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders, unless the Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender or the Parent referring to this Agreement, describing such Default and stating that such notice is a "notice of default." The Administrative Agent will notify the Lenders of its receipt of any such notice. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to any Event of Default as may be directed by the Required Lenders or the Required Revolving Lenders, as applicable, in accordance with <u>Article VIII</u>; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that unless and until the Administrative Agent has received any such direction, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Event of Default as it shall deem advisable or in the best interest of the Lenders.

Section 9.06 <u>Credit Decision; Disclosure of Information by Agents</u>. Each Lender acknowledges that no Agent-Related Person has made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by any Agent hereafter taken, including any consent to and acceptance of any assignment or review of the affairs of any Loan Party or any Affiliate thereof, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent-Related Person to any Lender as to any matter, including whether Agent-Related Persons have disclosed material information in their possession. Each Lender represents to each Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of, and investigation into, the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties and their respective Subsidiaries, and all applicable bank or other regulatory Laws relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit to the Parent and the other Loan Parties hereunder. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Parent and the other Loan Parties. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by any Agent herein, such Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of any of the Loan Parties or any of their respective Affiliates which may come into the possession of any Agent-Related Person.

Section 9.07 <u>Indemnification of Agents</u>. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, each Lender shall, on a ratable basis based on such Lender's Pro Rata Share of all the Facilities, indemnify upon demand each Agent-Related Person (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of any Loan Party and without limiting the obligation of any Loan Party to do so), and hold harmless each Agent-Related Person in each case from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by such Agent-Related Person (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any such Agent-Related Person in its capacity as L/C Issuer); <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that no Lender shall be liable for any Indemnified Liabilities incurred by an Agent-Related Person to the extent such Indemnified Liabilities are determined in a final, non- appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Agent-Related Person's own gross negligence or willful misconduct; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that no action taken in accordance with the directions of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be required by the Loan Documents) shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this <u>Section 9.07</u>; <u>provided</u>, <u>further</u>, that to the extent any L/C Issuer is entitled to indemnification under this <u>Section 9.07</u> solely in its capacity and role as an L/C Issuer, only the Revolving Credit Lenders shall be required to indemnify such L/C Issuer under this <u>Section 9.07</u> (which indemnity shall be provided by such Lenders based upon their respective Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Credit Facility). In the case of any investigation, litigation or proceeding giving rise to any Indemnified Liabilities, this <u>Section 9.07</u> shall apply whether or not any such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by any Lender or any other Person. Without limiting the foregoing, each Lender shall reimburse the Administrative Agent upon demand for its Pro Rata Share of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses (including the fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel) incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any document contemplated by or referred to herein, to the extent that the Administrative Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of the Parent; <u>provided</u> that such reimbursement by the Lenders shall not affect the Parent's continuing reimbursement obligations with respect thereto; <u>provided</u> <u>further</u>, that failure of any Lender to indemnify or reimburse the Administrative Agent shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation in respect thereof. The undertaking in this <u>Section 9.07</u> shall survive termination of the Aggregate Commitments, the payment of all other Obligations and the resignation or removal of the Administrative Agent.

------

Section 9.08&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Agents in their Individual Capacities</u>. Any Agent and its Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from, acquire Capital Stock in and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting or other business with each of the Loan Parties and their respective Affiliates as though it were not an Agent or an L/C Issuer hereunder and without notice to or consent of the Lenders. The Lenders acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, an Agent or its Affiliates may receive information regarding any Loan Party or its Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of such Loan Party or such Affiliate) and acknowledge that such Agent shall be under no obligation to provide such information to them. With respect to its Loans, such Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Lender and may exercise such rights and powers as though it were not an Agent or an L/C Issuer, and the terms "Lender" and "Lenders" include such Agent in its individual capacity (unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires).

Section 9.09&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Successor Agents</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent may resign as the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, upon 30 days' written notice to the Borrower and the Lenders. If the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent or a controlling Affiliate of the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent is subject to an Agent-Related Distress Event, the Borrower may remove such Agent from such role upon ten (10) days' written notice to the Lenders. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation or removal, the Required Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor agent for the Lenders, which successor agent shall be consented to by the Borrower at all times other than during the existence of an Event of Default under <u>Section 8.01(a)</u>, <u>(f)</u>, or <u>(g)</u> (which consent of the Borrower shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). If no successor agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation or removal, as applicable, of the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent (other than to the extent subject to an Agent- Related Distress Event or if the Administrative Agent is being removed as a result of it being a Disqualified Institution), as applicable, may appoint, after consulting with the Lenders and the Borrower, a successor agent from among the Lenders. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor agent hereunder, the Person acting as such successor agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, and the term "Administrative Agent" or "Collateral Agent," as applicable, shall mean such successor administrative agent or such successor collateral agent, as applicable, and the retiring Administrative Agent's or Collateral Agent's appointment, powers and duties as the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall be terminated. After the retiring Administrative Agent's or Collateral Agent's resignation or removal hereunder as the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, the provisions of this <u>Article IX</u> and <u>Sections 10.04</u> and <u>10.05</u> shall continue in effect for its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent under this Agreement. If no successor agent has accepted appointment as the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent by the date which is 30 days following the retiring Administrative Agent's or Collateral Agent's notice of resignation or removal, the retiring Administrative Agent's or Collateral Agent's resignation or removal shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and (i) the retiring Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent on behalf of the Lenders under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security as bailee, trustee or other applicable capacity until such time as a successor of such Agent is appointed); for the avoidance of doubt, any agency fees for the account of the retiring agent shall cease to accrue from (and shall be payable on) the date that a successor Agent is appointed, (ii) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above in this <u>Section 9.09</u> and (iii) the Lenders shall perform all of the duties of the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent hereunder by a successor and upon the execution and filing or recording of such financing statements, or amendments thereto, and such amendments or supplements to the Mortgages, and such other instruments or notices, as may be necessary or desirable, or as the Required Lenders may request, in order to continue the perfection of the Liens granted or purported to be granted by the Collateral Documents, the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, discretion, privileges, and duties of the retiring (or removed) Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent hereunder by a successor or upon the expiration of the 30-day period following the retiring Administrative Agent's or Collateral Agent's notice of resignation or removal without a successor agent having been appointed, the retiring Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents other than as specifically set forth in <u>clause (i)</u> above of this <u>Section 9.09(a)</u> but the provisions of this <u>Article IX</u> and <u>Sections 10.04</u> and <u>10.05</u> shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Agent-Related Persons in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them solely in respect of the Loan Documents or Obligations, as applicable, while the retiring Agent was acting as Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable. At any time the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to <u>clause (d)</u> of the definition thereof, the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent may be removed as the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent hereunder at the request of the Borrower and the Required Lenders.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Any resignation by or removal of RBC as Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent pursuant to this <u>Section 9.09</u> shall also constitute its resignation or removal as an L/C Issuer, in which case the resigning Administrative Agent (x) shall not be required to issue any further Letters of Credit hereunder and (y) shall maintain all of its rights as L/C Issuer with respect to any Letters of Credit issued by it prior to the date of such resignation or removal. Upon the acceptance of a successor's appointment as Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent hereunder or upon the expiration of the 30-day period following the retiring Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent's notice of resignation or removal without a successor agent having been appointed, (i) such successor (if any) shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring L/C Issuer, (ii) the retiring L/C Issuer shall be discharged from all of their respective duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents and (iii) the successor L/C Issuer (if any) shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make (or the Borrower shall enter into) other arrangements satisfactory to the retiring L/C Issuer to effectively assume the obligations of the retiring L/C Issuer with respect to such Letters of Credit.

Section 9.10&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim</u>. In case of the pendency of any receivership, administrative receivership, judicial management, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization (by way of voluntary arrangement, schemes of arrangement or otherwise), arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or L/C Obligation shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans, L/C Obligation and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel to the extent provided for herein and all other amounts due the Lenders and the Administrative Agent under <u>Sections 2.03(h)</u> and <u>(i)</u>, <u>2.09</u> and <u>10.04</u>) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; and any administrator, administrative receiver, custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, judicial manager, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Agents and their respective agents and counsel, and any other amounts, in each case, due the Administrative Agent under <u>Sections 2.09</u> and <u>10.04</u>.

Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan of reorganization (by way of voluntary arrangement, schemes of arrangement or otherwise), arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; It is the purpose of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents that there shall be no violation of any Law of any jurisdiction denying or restricting the right of banking corporations or associations to transact business as agent or trustee in such jurisdiction. It is recognized that in case of litigation under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, and in particular in case of the enforcement of any of the Loan Documents, or in case the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent deems that by reason of any present or future Law of any jurisdiction it may not exercise any of the rights, powers or remedies granted herein or in any of the other Loan Documents or take any other action which may be desirable or necessary in connection therewith, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent are hereby authorized to appoint an additional individual or institution selected by them in their sole discretion as a separate trustee, co-trustee, administrative agent, collateral agent, administrative sub-agent or administrative co-agent, as applicable (any such additional individual or institution being referred to herein individually as a "<u>Supplemental Agent</u>" and collectively as "<u>Supplemental Agents</u>").

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Should any instrument in writing from the Borrower, Holdings, the Parent or any other Loan Party be required by any Supplemental Agent so appointed by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to him or it such rights, powers, privileges and duties, the Borrower, the Parent or Holdings, as applicable, shall, or shall cause such Loan Party to, execute, acknowledge and deliver any and all such instruments promptly upon request by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent. In case any Supplemental Agent, or a successor thereto, shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of such Supplemental Agent, to the extent permitted by Law, shall vest in and be exercised by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, until the appointment of a new Supplemental Agent.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; In the event that the Borrower appoints or designates any Specified Refinancing Agent pursuant to <u>Section 2.18</u>, (i) each and every right, power, privilege or duty expressed or intended by this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents to be exercised by or vested in or conveyed to an agent or arranger with respect to Specified Refinancing Debt, shall be exercisable by and vest in such Specified Refinancing Agent to the extent, and only to the extent, necessary to enable such Specified Refinancing Agent to exercise such rights, powers and privileges with respect to the Specified Refinancing Debt, as applicable, and to perform such duties with respect to such Specified Refinancing Debt, and every covenant and obligation contained in the Loan Documents and necessary to the exercise or performance thereof by such Specified Refinancing Agent shall run to and be enforceable by either the Administrative Agent or such Specified Refinancing Agent, and (ii) the provisions of this <u>Article IX</u> and of <u>Sections 10.04</u> and <u>10.05</u> (obligating the Borrower to pay the Administrative Agent's and the Collateral Agent's expenses and to indemnify the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent) that refer to the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent shall inure to the benefit of such Specified Refinancing Agent and all references therein to the Administrative Agent and/or Collateral Agent shall be deemed to be references to the Administrative Agent and/or Collateral Agent and/or such Specified Refinancing Agent, as the context may require. Each Lender and L/C Issuer hereby irrevocably appoints any Specified Refinancing Agent to act on its behalf hereunder and under the other Loan Documents pursuant to <u>Section 2.18</u>, as applicable, and designates and authorizes such Specified Refinancing Agent to take such actions on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and each other Loan Document and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to such Specified Refinancing Agent by the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.

Section 9.15&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Intercreditor Agreement</u>. The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent are authorized by the Lenders and each other Secured Party to, to the extent required by the terms of the Loan Documents, (i) enter into any Intercreditor Agreement contemplated by this Agreement, (ii) enter into any Collateral Document, or (iii) make or consent to any filings or take any other actions in connection therewith (and any amendments, amendments and restatements, restatements or waivers of or supplements to or other modifications to, such agreements in connection with the incurrence by any Loan Party of any Indebtedness of such Loan Party that is permitted to be secured pursuant to <u>Sections 7.01</u> and <u>7.02</u> of this Agreement, in order to permit such Indebtedness to be secured by a valid, perfected lien on the Collateral (with such priority as may be designated by such Loan Party, to the extent such priority is permitted by the Loan Documents)), and the parties hereto acknowledge that any Intercreditor Agreement, Collateral Document, consent, filing or other action will be binding upon them. Each Lender and each other Secured Party (a) hereby agrees that it will be bound by and will take no actions contrary to the provisions of any Intercreditor Agreement (if entered into) and (b) hereby authorizes and instructs the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to enter into any Intercreditor Agreement contemplated by this Agreement or Collateral Document (and any amendments, amendments and restatements, restatements or waivers of or supplements to or other modifications to, such agreements in connection with the incurrence by any Loan Party of any Indebtedness of such Loan Party that is permitted to be secured pursuant to <u>Sections 7.01</u> and <u>7.02</u> of this Agreement, in order to permit such Indebtedness to be secured by a valid, perfected lien on the Collateral (with such priority as may be designated by such Loan Party, to the extent such priority is permitted by the Loan Documents)), and to subject the Liens on the Collateral securing the Obligations to the provisions thereof.

------

Section 9.16&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Withholding Tax</u>. To the extent required by any applicable law, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding Tax. Without limiting or expanding the provisions of <u>Section 3.01</u>, each Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent against, and shall make payable in respect thereof within 30 days after demand therefor, any and all Taxes (but, in the case of Indemnified Taxes, only to the extent that the Loan Parties have not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Loan Parties to do so) and any and all related losses, claims, liabilities and expenses (including fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative Agent) incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent by the IRS or any other Governmental Authority as a result of the failure of the Administrative Agent to properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender for any reason (including because the appropriate form was not delivered or not property executed, or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstance that rendered the exemption from, or reduction of withholding tax ineffective). A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due the Administrative Agent under this <u>Section 9.16</u>. The agreements in this <u>Section 9.16</u> shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other obligations under any Loan Document. For the avoidance of doubt, the term "Lender" shall, for purposes of this <u>Section 9.16</u>, include any L/C Issuer.

Section 9.17&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported QFCs</u>. To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for Swap Contracts or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support "<u>QFC Credit Support</u>" and each such QFC a "<u>Supported QFC</u>"), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the "<u>U.S.</u> <u>Special Resolution Regime</u>") in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States):

In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a "<u>Covered Party</u>") becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support. As used in this <u>Section 9.17</u>, "<u>BHC Act Affiliate</u>" of a party means an "affiliate" (as such term is defined under, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. 1841(k)) of such party.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; (A) such Lender is an investment fund managed by a "Qualified Professional Asset Manager" (within the meaning of Part VI of PTE 84-14), (B) such "Qualified Professional Asset Manager" made the investment decision on behalf of such Lender to enter into, participate in, administer and perform the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement, (C) the entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement satisfies the requirements of subsections (b) through (g) of Part I of PTE 84- 14 and (D) to the best knowledge of such Lender, the requirements of subsection (a) of Part I of PTE 84-14 are satisfied with respect to such Lender's entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement, or

For purposes of determining whether the Required Lenders have (1) consented (or not consented) to any amendment, modification, waiver, consent or other action with respect to any of the terms of any Loan Document or any departure by any Loan Party therefrom, (2) otherwise acted on any matter related to any Loan Document, or (3) directed or required any Agent or any Lender to undertake any action (or refrain from taking any action) with respect to or under any Loan Document, in each case, that does not require the consent of each Lender or each affected Lender.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any waiver, amendment, modification or consent in respect of this Agreement or any other Loan Document that by its terms affects the rights or duties under this Agreement or any other Loan Document of Lenders holding Loans or Commitments of a particular Tranche (but not the Lenders holding Loans or Commitments of any other Tranche) may be effected by an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrower and the requisite percentage in interest of the Lenders with respect to such Tranche that would be required to consent thereto under this <u>Section 10.01</u> if such Lenders were the only Lenders hereunder at the time.

This <u>Section 10.01</u> shall be subject to any contrary provision of <u>Section 2.18</u>. In addition, notwithstanding anything else to the contrary contained in this <u>Section 10.01</u>, (a) [reserved], (b) if the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall have jointly identified an obvious error or any error, ambiguity or omission, defect or inconsistency of a technical nature, in each case, in any provision of the Loan Documents, then the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall be permitted to amend such provision if in the case of amendments contemplated by this <u>clause (b)</u>, the same is not objected to in writing by the Required Lenders within five Business Days following receipt of notice thereof, (c) the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall be permitted to amend any provision of any Collateral Document, the Guaranty, or enter into any new agreement or instrument, to be consistent with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or as required by local law to give effect to any guaranty, or to give effect to or to protect any security interest for the benefit of the Secured Parties, in any property so that the security interests comply with applicable Law, and in each case, such amendments, documents and agreements shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to any Loan Document and (d) the Administrative Agent may, without the consent of any Lender or any other Person, enter into amendments or modifications to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or to enter into additional Loan Documents as the Administrative Agent deems appropriate in order to implement any Benchmark Replacement or any Conforming Change or otherwise effectuate the terms of <u>Section 1.14</u> in accordance with the terms thereof.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, at any time and from time to time, upon notice to the Administrative Agent (who shall promptly notify the applicable Lenders) specifying in reasonable detail the proposed terms thereof, the Borrower may make one or more loan modification offers to (i) all of the specified Lenders of any Facility that would, if and to the extent accepted by any such Lender (each, an "<u>Accepting Lender</u>"), (a) extend the scheduled Maturity Date and any amortization of the Loans and Commitments under such Facility and/or change the Applicable Margin and/or fees payable with respect to the Loans and Commitments under such Facility (in each case solely with respect to the Loans and Commitments of Accepting Lenders in respect of which an acceptance is delivered) and (b) treat the Loans and Commitments so modified as a new "Facility" for all purposes under this Agreement; <u>provided</u> that (x) such loan modification offer is made to each Lender under the applicable Facility on the same terms and subject to the same procedures as are applicable to all other Lenders under such Facility (which procedures in any case shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent) and (y) no loan modification shall affect the rights or duties of, or any fees or other amounts payable to, the Administrative Agent or any L/C Issuer, without its prior written consent or (ii) the specified Lenders of any Facility that would, if and to the extent accepted by any Accepting Lender, (a) extend the scheduled Maturity Date and any amortization of the Loans and Commitments under such Facility and, if applicable, change the Applicable Margin and/or fees payable with respect to the Loans and Commitments under such Facility (in each case solely with respect to the Loans and Commitments of Accepting Lenders in respect of which an acceptance is delivered) and (b) treat the Loans and Commitments so modified as a new "Facility" for all purposes under this Agreement; <u>provided</u> that (w) in no event shall such extended Loans and Commitments (1) have covenants that are, taken as a whole, more restrictive to the Borrower than the terms applicable to the non-extended Loans and Commitments of the original Facility from which such Loans and Commitments are extended (the "<u>Non-Extended Loans and Commitments</u>") (except that this <u>clause (1)</u> shall not restrict extended Loans and Commitments that so long as such covenants or other provisions (A) do not mature prior to the Latest Maturity Date of the Term Loans or (B) are incorporated into this Agreement (or any other applicable loan agreement) for the benefit of all existing Lenders by an amendment to this Agreement (which may be accomplished without further Lender voting requirements)), (2) have a higher Applicable Margin and/or fees than the Non-Extended Loans and Commitments or (3) receive a greater than ratable share of any optional or mandatory prepayments than such Non-Extended Loans and Commitments, in each case, prior to the final maturity date of such Non-Extended Loans and Commitments applicable at the time of such loan modification, (x) such loan modification offer is made to the Accepting Lenders under the applicable Facility on the same terms and subject to the same procedures as are applicable to all other Accepting Lenders under such Facility (which procedures in any case shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent), (y) if the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Credit Commitments or Term Loans in respect of which Lenders shall have accepted the relevant loan modification offer shall exceed the maximum aggregate principal amount of Revolving Credit Commitments or Term Loans of such Accepting Lenders, as applicable, subject to the loan modification offer, then the Revolving Credit Commitments or Term Loans, as applicable, of the Lenders of the applicable Facility who were not provided with the opportunity to extend their Revolving Credit Commitments or Term Loans may have their Revolving Credit Commitments terminated or Term Loans repaid on a non-ratable basis up to such maximum amount based on the respective principal amounts with respect to which the Accepting Lenders have accepted such loan modification offer and (z) no loan modification shall affect the rights or duties of, or any fees or other amounts payable to, the Administrative Agent or any L/C Issuer, without its prior written consent.

------

In connection with any such loan modification offer, the Borrower and each Accepting Lender shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent such agreements and other documentation as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably specify to evidence the acceptance of the applicable loan modification offer and the terms and conditions thereof, and this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be amended in a writing (which may be executed and delivered by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and shall be effective only with respect to the applicable Loans and Commitments of Lenders that shall have accepted the relevant loan modification offer (and only with respect to Loans and Commitments as to which any such Lender has accepted the loan modification offer)) to the extent necessary or appropriate, in the judgment of the Administrative Agent, to reflect the existence of, and to give effect to the terms and conditions of, the applicable loan modification (including the addition of such modified Loans and/or Commitments as a "Facility" hereunder). No Lender shall have any obligation whatsoever to accept any loan modification offer, and may reject any such offer in such Lender's sole discretion. On the effective date of any loan modification applicable to the Revolving Credit Facility, the Borrower shall prepay any Revolving Credit Loans or L/C Advances (to the extent participated to Revolving Credit Lenders) outstanding on such effective date (and pay any additional amounts required pursuant to <u>Section 3.06</u>) to the extent necessary to keep the outstanding Revolving Credit Loans or L/C Advances (to the extent participated to Revolving Credit Lenders), as the case may be, ratable with any revised Pro Rata Share of a Revolving Credit Lender in respect of the Revolving Credit Facility arising from any non-ratable loan modification to the Revolving Credit Commitments under this <u>Section 10.01</u>. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no modification referred to above shall become effective unless the Administrative Agent, to the extent reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, shall have received legal opinions, board resolutions, officers' certificates and/or reaffirmation agreements consistent with those delivered on the Closing Date under <u>Section 4.01</u> or delivered from time to time pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>6.12</u>, <u>Section 6.14</u> and/or <u>Section 6.16</u> (other than changes to such legal opinions resulting from a change in Law, change in fact or change to counsel's form of opinion) with respect to the Parent, Holdings and the Borrower, all material Subsidiary Guarantors and each other Subsidiary Guarantor that is organized in a jurisdiction for which local counsel to the Administrative Agent in such jurisdiction advises that such deliveries are reasonably necessary to preserve the Collateral in such jurisdiction.

The rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided hereunder and under each other Loan Document, are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by Law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the authority to enforce rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Loan Documents against the Loan Parties or any of them or any of their assets shall be vested exclusively in, and all actions and proceedings at law in connection with such enforcement shall be instituted and maintained exclusively by, the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent in accordance with <u>Section 8.02</u> for the benefit of all the Lenders and the L/C Issuers; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that the foregoing shall not prohibit (a) the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent from exercising on its own behalf the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (b) each L/C Issuer from exercising the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as an L/C Issuer) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, or (c) any Lender from exercising setoff rights in accordance with <u>Section 10.09</u> (subject to the terms of <u>Section</u> <u>2.13</u>); and <u>provided further</u>, that if at any time there is no Person acting as Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, then (i) the Required Lenders shall have the rights otherwise ascribed to the Administrative Agent pursuant to <u>Section 8.02</u> and (ii) in addition to the matters set forth in <u>clauses</u> <u>(b)</u> and <u>(c)</u> of the preceding proviso and subject to <u>Section 2.13</u>, any Lender may, with the consent of the Required Lenders, enforce any rights and remedies available to it and as authorized by the Required Lenders.

Upon request, and the surrender by the assigning Lender of its Note (or, in lieu thereof, a lost note affidavit and indemnity reasonably acceptable to the Borrower), the Borrower (at its expense) shall execute and deliver a Note to the assignee Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement (other than, except with the consent of the Borrower pursuant to <u>Section 10.07(b)(iii)</u>, any purported assignment or transfer to a Disqualified Institution) that does not comply with this <u>clause (b)</u> shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with <u>Section 10.07(d)</u>.

This <u>Section 10.07(c)</u> and <u>Section 2.11</u> shall be construed so that all Loans are at all times maintained in "registered form" within the meaning of Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2) of the Code and any related United States Treasury Regulations (or any other relevant or successor provisions of the Code or of such United States Treasury Regulations).

Each party hereto hereby agrees that an SPC shall be entitled to the benefits of <u>Sections 3.01</u>, <u>3.04</u> and <u>3.05</u> (subject to the requirements and the limitations of such Sections (it being understood that the documentation required under <u>Section 3.01(g)</u> shall be delivered solely to the Granting Lender) and <u>Section 3.08</u>); <u>provided</u> that neither the grant to any SPC nor the exercise by any SPC of such option shall increase the costs or expenses or otherwise increase or change the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement (including under <u>Section 3.01</u>, <u>3.04</u> or <u>3.05</u>), except to the extent that the SPC's right to a greater payment results from a change in any Law after the grant to the SPC takes place. Each party hereto further agrees that (i) no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement for which a Lender would be liable, and (ii) the Granting Lender shall for all purposes, including the approval of any amendment, waiver or other modification of any provision of any Loan Document, remain the Lender of record hereunder. Other than as expressly provided in this <u>Section 10.07(g)</u>, (A) such Granting Lender's obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Granting Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (C) the Borrower, the Agents and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Granting Lender in connection with such Granting Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement.

In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper or other senior debt of any SPC, it will not, other than in respect of matters unrelated to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, institute against, or join any other Person in instituting against, such SPC any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency, or liquidation proceeding under the laws of the United States or any State thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any SPC may (i) with notice to, but without prior consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and with the payment of a processing fee of $3,500, assign all or any portion of its rights hereunder with respect to any Loan to the Granting Lender and (ii) subject to <u>Section 10.08</u>, disclose on a confidential basis any non- public information relating to its funding of Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety or Guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(n)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; In the event that a transfer by any of the Secured Parties of its rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (and/or any relevant Loan Document) occurred or was deemed to occur by way of novation, the Parent and any other Loan Parties explicitly agree that all securities and guarantees created under any Loan Documents shall be preserved for the benefit of the new Lender and the other Secured Parties.

Section 10.08&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Confidentiality</u>. Each of the Agents and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information, except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and co- managed funds and accounts and to its and their respective partners, directors, officers, employees, trustees, representatives and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors and service providers on a need-to-know basis (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential in accordance with customary practices); (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority having jurisdiction over such Agent, Lender or its respective Affiliates or in connection with any pledge or assignment permitted under <u>Section 10.07(f)</u>; (c) in any legal, judicial, administrative proceeding or other compulsory process or otherwise as required by applicable Laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, in each case based upon the reasonable advice of the disclosing Agent's or Lender's legal counsel (in which case the disclosing Agent or Lender, as applicable, agrees (except with respect to any audit or examination conducted by bank accountants or any governmental bank regulatory authority exercising examination or regulatory authority), to the extent not prohibited by applicable Law, to promptly notify the Borrower prior to such disclosure); (d) to any other party to this Agreement; (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder; (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same (or at least as restrictive) as those of this <u>Section 10.08</u> (or as may otherwise be reasonably acceptable to the Borrower), to any Eligible Assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective Eligible Assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement; <u>provided</u> that no such disclosure shall be made by such Lender or such Agent or any of their respective Affiliates to any such Person that is a Disqualified Institution (but with respect to any Lender and its Affiliates, only to the extent the list of Disqualified Institutions has been made available to such Lender upon written request); (g) with the written consent of the Borrower; (h) to the extent such Information becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this <u>Section 10.08</u>; (i) to any state, federal or foreign authority or examiner (including the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or any other similar organization) regulating any Agent or Lender or any Affiliate of any Agent or Lender; (j) to any rating agency when required by it (it being understood that, prior to any such disclosure, such rating agency shall undertake to preserve the confidentiality of any Information relating to the Loan Parties received by it from such Agent or Lender); (k) to any contractual counterparty (or prospective contractual counterparty) in any swap, hedge, or similar agreement or to any such contractual counterparty's (or prospective contractual counterparty's) professional advisor (other than a Disqualified Institution (but with respect to any Lender, only to the extent the list of Disqualified Institutions has been made available to such Lender upon written request)); or (l) to insurers, re-insurers and other credit support providers or brokers in connection with the risk management procedures of the Lenders. In addition, the Agents and the Lenders may disclose the existence of this Agreement and information about this Agreement on a confidential basis to market data collectors, similar service providers to the lending industry, and service providers to the Agents and the Lenders in connection with the administration and management of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the Commitments, and the Credit Extensions; <u>provided</u> that such Person is advised and agrees to be bound by the provisions of this <u>Section 10.08</u>.

------

For the purposes of this <u>Section 10.08</u>, "<u>Information</u>" means all information received from any Loan Party or any Subsidiary thereof relating to any Loan Party or any Subsidiary thereof or their respective businesses, other than any such information that is publicly available to any Agent or any Lender prior to disclosure by any Loan Party other than as a result of a breach of this <u>Section 10.08</u> by such Lender or Agent. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this <u>Section 10.08</u> shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

Each Agent, each Lender and each L/C Issuer acknowledges that (i) the Information may include material non-public information concerning the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, (ii) it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of material non-public information and (iii) it will handle such material non-public information in accordance with applicable Law, including United States federal and state securities Laws.

Section 10.09&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Setoff</u>. In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by Law, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, each Secured Party is authorized at any time and from time to time, after obtaining the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, without prior notice to the Parent or any other Loan Party, any such notice being waived by the Parent (on its own behalf and on behalf of each Loan Party) to the fullest extent permitted by Law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in any currency), other than deposits in fiduciary accounts as to which a Loan Party is acting as fiduciary for another Person who is not a Loan Party and other than payroll or trust fund accounts, at any time held by, and other Indebtedness (in any currency) at any time owing by, such Lender to or for the credit or the account of the respective Loan Parties against any and all Obligations owing to such Secured Party hereunder or under (or contemplated by) any other Loan Document now or hereafter existing, irrespective of whether or not such Agent or such Lender shall have made demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document (or as contemplated by any other Loan Document) and although such Obligations may be contingent or unmatured or denominated in a currency different from that of the applicable deposit or Indebtedness or are owed to a branch or office of such Lender different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such Indebtedness; <u>provided</u> that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of <u>Section 2.17</u> and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. Each Secured Party agrees promptly to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent after any such set-off and application made by such Secured Party; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. The rights of the Administrative Agent and each Secured Party under this <u>Section 10.09</u> are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that the Administrative Agent and such Secured Party may have. Notwithstanding anything herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary, in no event shall the assets of any Controlled Foreign Subsidiary or FSHCO (or other Excluded Property) constitute security for payment of the Obligations, it being understood that (a) the Capital Stock (other than to the extent constituting Excluded Property) of any Controlled Foreign Subsidiary or FSHCO that is directly owned by the Parent or a Domestic Subsidiary of the Parent does not constitute such an asset, and may be pledged, to the extent set forth in <u>Section 6.12,</u> (b) proceeds of Excluded Property shall constitute security for payment of the Obligations of the Parent (unless such proceeds would constitute Excluded Property) and (c) the provisions hereof shall not limit, reduce or otherwise diminish in any respect the Parent's obligations to make any mandatory prepayment pursuant to <u>Section 2.05(b)(ii)</u>.

------

Section 10.10&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Interest Rate Limitation</u>. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable Law (the "<u>Maximum Rate</u>"). If any Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the Borrower. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by an Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder.

Section 10.11 <u>Counterparts; Electronic Execution</u>. This Agreement and each other Loan Document may be executed in one or more counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery by fax or other electronic transmission of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement and each other Loan Document shall be effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Agreement and such other Loan Document and the words "execution," "execute", "signed," "signature," and words of like import in or related to any document to be signed in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be deemed to include electronic signatures, the electronic matching of assignment terms and contract formations on electronic platforms approved by the Administrative Agent, or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act. The Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, require that any such documents and signatures executed electronically or delivered by fax or other electronic transmission be confirmed by a manually-signed original thereof; <u>provided</u> that the failure to request or deliver the same shall not limit the effectiveness of any document or signature executed electronically or delivered by fax or other electronic transmission.<br>

Section 10.12&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Integration; Effectiveness</u>. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and those provisions of the Engagement Letter and the Fee Letter that, by their terms, survive the termination or expiration of the Engagement Letter or the Closing Date, constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. It is expressly agreed and confirmed by the parties hereto that the provisions of the Fee Letter shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the occurrence of the Closing Date, and shall continue in effect thereafter in accordance with their terms. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and those of any other Loan Document, the provisions of this Agreement shall control; <u>provided</u> that the inclusion of supplemental rights or remedies in favor of the Agents or the Lenders in any other Loan Document shall not be deemed a conflict with this Agreement. Each Loan Document was drafted with the joint participation of the respective parties thereto and shall be construed neither against nor in favor of any party, but rather in accordance with the fair meaning thereof. Except as provided in <u>Section 4.01</u>, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto as of the date hereof.

------

Section 10.13 <u>Survival of Representations and Warranties</u>. All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Loan Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof. Such representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by each Agent and each Lender, regardless of any investigation made by any Agent or any Lender or on their behalf and notwithstanding that any Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default at the time of any Credit Extension, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Loan or any other Obligation (other than contingent indemnification or other obligations and obligations and liabilities under Secured Cash Management Agreements and Secured Hedge Agreements) hereunder shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied or any Letter of Credit shall remain outstanding (other than Letters of Credit which have been Cash Collateralized or as to which arrangements satisfactory to the L/C Issuer that issued such Letters of Credit shall have been made).

Section 10.14&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Severability</u>. If any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this <u>Section 10.14</u>, if and to the extent that the enforceability of any provisions in this Agreement relating to Defaulting Lenders shall be limited by Debtor Relief Laws then such provisions shall be deemed to be in effect only to the extent not so limited.

Section 10.15&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Etc</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Governing Law</u>.

EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO AGREES THAT A FINAL JUDGMENT IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE CONCLUSIVE AND MAY BE ENFORCED IN OTHER JURISDICTIONS BY SUIT ON THE JUDGMENT OR IN ANY OTHER MANNER PROVIDED BY LAW.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution Authority.
