STRICTLY CONFIDENTIAL

Dear Sirs,

We refer to our recent discussions relating to the contemplated direct and indirect acquisition by Habsont Unlimited Company (the Purchaser) of all of the securities issued by Héra, a société par actions simplifiée organized under the laws of France with a share capital of €35,862,368 whose registered office is at 200, avenue de Paris, 92320 Châtillon, registered with the Trade and Companies Registry of Nanterre under number 814 697 892 RCS Nanterre (the Company), directly and/or indirectly (the Transaction).

This letter (the Put Option Letter) sets forth the Purchaser’s irrevocable commitment to acquire all the Securities on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the agreed form securities sale agreement attached hereto as Schedule 1 (the SSA).

Capitalized terms used in this Put Option Letter shall, unless otherwise defined herein, have the meanings ascribed to them in the SSA. The provisions of Clauses 1.2, 11, 18 to 22, 24 and 25 of the SSA shall be incorporated in this Put Option Letter as if set out herein and shall apply mutatis mutandis as if references in those articles to the “Agreement”, “Parties” or the “date hereof” (or similar expressions) were respectively to this Put Option Letter, the parties hereto and the Put Option Date.

We acknowledge that before the Vendors are in a position to take any decision to sell the Securities, the works’ council (comité social et économique) of Laboratoire HRA Pharma SAS (the Works’ Council)

- 1 -

must be informed and consulted in accordance with applicable Laws in connection with the contemplated Transaction.

1. PUT OPTION

(a) The Purchaser hereby irrevocably undertakes (the Put Option) to execute the SSA and, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the SSA (including the fulfilment of the Conditions), purchase the Securities at the Purchase Price, subject only to the sending on or prior to the Expiry Date (as defined below) by the Vendors Representative to the Purchaser, in accordance with the terms of this Put Option Letter, of a notice substantially in the form attached hereto as Schedule 2 pursuant to which the Vendors Representative exercises the Put Option (the Exercise Notice).

The Exercise Notice shall specify the date (being a Business Day not less than three Business Days and no more than ten Business Days after the sending of the Exercise Notice) and the location at which the SSA is to be executed in accordance with paragraph (f) (the date on which the SSA is executed is hereinafter referred to as the Execution Date). Alternatively, the Vendors Representative may notify to the Purchaser, in the Exercise Notice, that the SSA shall be signed on the Execution Date electronically using the online platform Docusign or any similar platform.

(b) By countersigning this Put Option Letter (the date of such signature being referred to as the Put Option Date), the Vendors having executed this Put Option Letter agree to its provisions and the undertakings of the Vendors provided herein and accept the benefit of the Put Option as an option solely, without undertaking to exercise such option.

(c) In order to validly exercise the Put Option, the Vendors Representative (acting on behalf of the Vendors having executed this Put Option Letter, who irrevocably give full power and authority to the Vendors Representative in this respect) needs to send the Exercise Notice to the Purchaser on or prior to the earlier of (the Expiry Date):

(i) the date falling 5 Business Days after the Consultation Process (as such term is defined below) has been completed (or deemed completed in accordance with Clause 2(c)); and

(ii) the first Business Day falling 4 months after the Put Option Date.

(d) The Put Option is governed by the provisions of Article 1124 of the French Civil Code and is irrevocable until the Expiry Date.

(e) If the Exercise Notice has not been sent on or prior to the Expiry Date at 23:59 pm CET, the Put Option will automatically terminate as at the Expiry Date and the Purchaser and the Vendors having executed this Put Option Letter shall be released from, and cease to be bound by, the obligations applicable to them under this Put Option Letter, subject to the provisions of Clause 9 (including for the avoidance of doubt, that the provisions of Clause 3 will survive such termination except as specifically set forth in Clause 9).

(f) In case of exercise of the Put Option, the Purchaser and the Vendors having executed this Put Option Letter irrevocably undertake to execute the SSA on the Execution Date and at the location specified in the Exercise Notice.

(g) It is hereby expressly specified that the validity and enforceability of the Put Option is not subject to the execution of the SSA by the Purchaser and accordingly, upon exercise of the Put Option and execution and delivery of the SSA by the Vendors having executed this Put Option Letter, the Purchaser shall, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the SSA, be bound to acquire the Securities at the price and under the other terms and conditions of the SSA,

- 2 -

whether or not the SSA has been executed by the Purchaser. The Purchaser agrees that its obligations under the Put Option may be enforced through specific performance, in accordance with the provisions of articles 1221 and 1222 of the French Civil Code, without any prior formal notice (mise en demeure préalable) being required from the Vendors having executed this Put Option Letter. The parties expressly acknowledge that such specific performance may be sought by the Vendors even if it creates a manifest disproportion between its cost to the Purchaser and its interest for the Vendors and vice versa.

2. CONSULTATION PROCESS

(a) The Purchaser acknowledges that the execution of the SSA by the Vendors is subject to the Works’ Council being informed and consulted on the Transaction in accordance with the French Labor Code (the Consultation Process).

(b) The Vendors having executed this Put Option Letter agree and undertake to (x) cause the management of the Group to initiate the Consultation Process as soon as reasonably practicable and in any event no later than ten (10) Business Days after the Put Option Date (the Consultation Process Initiating Date) and (y) to use their, and cause the management of the Group to use their, respective best efforts to obtain an opinion (whether favorable or not) from the Works’ Council in relation to the Transaction in accordance with applicable Laws as soon as reasonably practicable following the Consultation Process Initiating Date.

(c) For the purpose of this Put Option Letter, the Consultation Process shall be deemed completed on the earlier of (i) the date of the meeting during which, following its information and consultation in accordance with the French Labor Code, the Works’ Council will have delivered a final opinion regarding the Transaction as documented by duly signed minutes of the meeting (or an excerpt thereof) or (ii) failing an express opinion from the Works Council, the date on which the Vendors Representative has determined in good faith that the Works’ Council will be deemed to have rendered a final opinion pursuant to applicable laws and regulations.

(d) The Vendors having executed this Put Option Letter agree and undertake to instruct the management of the Group to:

(i) keep the Purchaser regularly informed of the status of the Consultation Process and to provide the Purchaser with any material written correspondence, notices and other communications reasonably in advance of their communication to the Works’ Council in order to take into account in good faith any comments that the Purchaser may make with respect to any such communication;

(ii) promptly provide the Purchaser with a true and certified copy of the final opinion delivered by the Works’ Council;

(iii) procure that no commitment, undertaking or promise shall be given to, and no agreement shall be entered into with, the Works’ Council or the employees or trade unions of the Group Companies, without the Purchaser’s prior written consent; and

(iv) more generally, conduct diligently the Consultation Process.

(e) The Purchaser undertakes, and shall cause its Affiliates, to:

(i) provide all relevant information reasonably requested by the Vendors Representative and/or the management of the Group and reasonably available to Purchaser in relation to the Transaction (which shall notably include a presentation of the Purchaser and Parent and information regarding the Purchaser’s foreseeable plans for the Group);

- 3 -

(ii) provide the Vendors Representative and/or the relevant Group Company with the documents or information which the Works Council or any expert that may be appointed by the Works Council, would reasonably request and that is reasonably available to the Purchaser (subject to the exclusion or redaction of privileged or commercially sensitive information, it being understood that Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide such information in a reasonable alternative manner that would not be precluded by such limitations);

(iii) designate a representative to attend the Works Council meetings, upon request made by the Vendors Representative and/or the management of the Group and meet with the relevant employees and employee representatives where and when requested by the Works Council reasonably in advance; and

(iv) more generally providing all reasonable assistance and cooperation with a view to completing the Consultation Process in a timely fashion and in any event before the Expiry Date.

(f) The parties will consult with each other and consider in good faith any issues and proposals in relation to the Transaction that may be raised as part of the Consultation Process, provided however that neither the Purchaser nor the Vendors shall be obliged to agree to any modification hereto, to the SSA or the transactions contemplated thereby.

3. EXCLUSIVITY

4.3 REVERSE BREAK FEE

(a) If this Agreement is validly terminated by either Party pursuant to (i) Clause 4.2(b)(ii) and at the time of such termination all Conditions have been satisfied other than the Conditions set forth in Clause 4.1(a)(i), 4.1(a)(ii) or Clause 4.1(a)(iii) (solely to the extent related to the Antitrust Clearances or the Foreign Investment Authorizations) or (ii) Clause 4.2(b)(iii) solely as a result of a final, non-appealable Adverse Order that was issued by an Authority in connection with obtaining the Antitrust Clearances or the Foreign Investment Authorizations, the Vendors (represented by the Vendors Representative) may elect, at the sole discretion of the Vendors Representative, subject to this Clause 4.3, to either (A) receive from the Purchaser a

27

break fee equal to an amount of €100,000,000 (the Break Fee) or (B) pursue other remedies available at Law (including an award of damages), but only in the case of this clause (B) for Fraud or a material breach of this Agreement by Purchaser. In the event this Agreement is terminated and any Vendor or any member of any Vendor’s Group initiates a court proceeding against the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates other than solely for the Break Fee or Fraud, then the Vendors’ right to receive, and Purchaser’s obligation to pay (and Parent’s guarantee of such obligation), the Break Fee shall automatically terminate and be null and void.

(b) If the Break Fee is payable pursuant to, and subject to the terms of, Clause 4.3(a) and the Vendors Representative so elects, the Break Fee shall be payable by the Purchaser to the Vendors Representative no later than five Business Days following written demand for payment from the Vendors Representative pursuant to the written instructions of the Vendors Representative, and the Purchaser shall be entitled to rely on such written instructions consistent with Clause 3.4(c), mutatis mutandis. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, except in the case of Fraud, the Parties acknowledge and agree that, if the Vendors Representative elects to receive the Break Fee pursuant to Clause 4.3(a) and the Break Fee is paid in full by the Purchaser, the Break Fee shall be the Vendors’, HRA NewCo’s, the Mancos’ and the Group’s, and their respective Affiliates’, sole and exclusive remedy against Purchaser or any member of the Purchaser Group pursuant to, arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Transaction (including in respect of any breach of this Agreement or failure to consummate the Transaction), and none of the Purchaser or any other member of the Purchaser Group shall have any liability or obligation pursuant to, arising out of or related to this Agreement or the Transaction (including in respect of any breach of this Agreement or failure to consummate the Transaction). For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Clause 4.3(b) shall limit (i) any remedies of the Vendors prior to the termination of this Agreement including specific performance pursuant Clause 16 or (ii) any of the Purchaser’s obligations under or remedies available to the Vendors with respect to Clause 14, the Confidentiality Agreement or the Clean Team Agreement.

(c) The Parties acknowledge and agree that the obligation to pay the Break Fee may arise even in the absence of breach by the Purchaser of its obligations under this Agreement, that the provisions set out in this Clause 4.3 are no more extensive than is reasonably necessary to protect the legitimate interests of the Vendors and the Group and that the amount of the Break Fee corresponds to a reasonable assessment of the damages that would be suffered by the Vendors in the event the Completion has not occurred.

(d) The Purchaser acknowledges that the Break Fee is provided as a counterpart to the undertakings of the Vendors under the Agreement, and in particular the illiquidity of the Group entailed by the provisions of the Agreement, and must therefore be regarded as a deposit (indemnité d’immobilisation) and not as a penalty (clause pénale), a forfeit or a payment as a guarantee, the Purchaser hereby waiving any claim in connection with the payment of the Break Fee or its amount.

(i) any alteration to or enactment of any generally applicable Law which was announced or enacted after the date of this Agreement (even if such alteration or enactment has a retroactive effect) that as of the Put Option Date was not pending and could not reasonably have been expected to occur;

(ii) the withdrawal or amendment of any concession or written agreement with any Group Company previously made by any Authority and in full force at the date of this Agreement (even if such withdrawal or amendment has a retroactive effect) that (A) as of the Put Option Date was not pending and could not reasonably have been expected to occur and (B) was unrelated to, and did not result from, any action or omission by any Vendor or any member of a Vendor’s Group;

(iii) any act or omission of any member of any Vendor’s Group or any Group Company prior to Completion taken at the written request of the Purchaser (delivered on behalf of the Purchaser by the individual specified in Clause 5.1(c)(ii)).

(c) To the extent the fact, matter, event or circumstance giving rise to a Claim is capable of remedy, the Vendors shall not be liable for Losses in respect of such Claim solely to the extent that such fact, matter, event or circumstance is remedied without any cost or other Loss to Purchaser or any of its Affiliates within 45 Business Days of the date of the notice referred to in Clause 10.2(c).

(d) The Vendors Representative may object in writing to a Claim at any time after receipt of the corresponding Claim notice from the Purchaser. In such case, the Vendors Representative and the Purchaser shall attempt in good faith to reach an agreement with respect to the validity of such Claim and the amount of the corresponding Refund. If no such agreement can be reached after good faith negotiations within a period of 30 Business Days following the receipt by the

47

Purchaser of the written objection of the Vendors Representative, the dispute shall be settled in accordance with the provisions of Clause 24(c).

(e) The Vendors shall not be liable in respect of any Claim and any liability of the Vendors in respect of such Claim shall absolutely cease, to the extent not previously satisfied, withdrawn or settled, unless court proceedings in respect of such Claim have been validly initiated within 12 months after the date of the notice referred to in Clause 10.2(c) is given.

(f) The Vendors shall not be liable for Losses in respect of any Claim to the extent that the amount of such Losses is covered by any insurance policy and the Purchaser or its applicable Affiliate has actually recovered proceeds (net of and all costs and expenses (including Taxes to the extent actually payable in cash) and the costs of any deductible or retention or any increase in insurance premiums) incurred in connection with recovery such proceeds) thereunder in respect of such Claim (provided, that, in the event the Purchaser or any such Affiliate recovers any such proceeds following its receipt of a payment from any Vendor under this Clause 10, the Purchaser shall promptly return to the Vendors Representative, for distribution to the applicable Vendors, an amount equal to the lesser of (x) the amount of such net proceeds and (y) the aggregate amount of such payments received by Purchaser from Vendors.

10.4 DUTY TO MITIGATE

After the Completion, the Purchaser shall procure that all commercially reasonable steps and proceedings are taken in order to avoid or mitigate any Claim, including prosecuting diligently and in good faith any claim that it or any Group Company may have against any Third Party to receive indemnification or any other recovery (including insurance proceeds, it being understood, that all costs and expenses (including the costs of any deductible or retention or any increase in insurance premiums) incurred in connection with recovery such proceeds shall be indemnifiable Losses in respect of such Claim). The Purchaser shall keep the Vendors Representative regularly informed of all such efforts. For the avoidance of doubt, none of the exclusions contained in Clause 10.3 or this Clause 10.4 shall preclude the Purchaser from making any Claim or recovering any Loss directly from the Vendors, or require that the Purchaser pursue an alternative source of recovery prior to noticing and prosecuting a Claim and obtaining a refund from the Vendors, under this Clause 10.

10.5 CONDUCT OF THIRD PARTY CLAIMS

(a) In respect of any fact, matter, event or circumstance which comes to the notice of the Purchaser which is reasonably likely to result in a claim against the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates by a Third Party other than a member of the Purchaser Group (a Third Party Claim) and which, in turn, is reasonably likely to result in a Claim, the Purchaser shall as soon as reasonably practicable give written notice of the Third Party Claim to the Vendors Representative specifying in reasonable detail the material aspects of the Third Party Claim but any failure to do so shall not prejudice the Purchaser’s or any of its Affiliates’ Claim except to the extent the Vendors Representative is materially prejudiced by the delay. Except with respect to any Third Party Claim that (x) is a criminal or quasi-criminal Proceeding or involves an actual or alleged violation of Law or (y) involves a request for non-monetary or other injunctive relief, the Purchaser shall:

(i) keep the Vendors Representative promptly informed of the progress of the Third Party Claim;

(ii) not make any admission of liability or any agreement, settlement, or compromise in relation to the Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Vendors Representative (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); and

48

(iii) allow the Vendors Representative, at its election, to take over the conduct of the Third Party Claim.

(b) If the Vendors Representative elects to conduct the Third Party Claim:

(i) it shall inform the Purchaser within 20 Business Days of the receipt of the corresponding Claim notice from the Purchaser;

(ii) it shall retain counsel of its choice at its own expense to defend the interest of the Purchaser and its Affiliates;

(iii) the Purchaser shall cooperate in providing the Vendors Representative with all information or documents reasonably available or access to sites and employees in relation to the Third Party Claim which the Vendors Representative may reasonably request (which information or documents or information obtain via such access shall be Confidential Information hereunder); the Vendors Representative shall in turn keep the Purchaser informed of the progress of such Third Party Claim and its defence;

(iv) the Purchaser shall be entitled to participate in the defence of the Third Party Claim and to retain separate counsel of its choice for such purpose, at its own expense; provided that the Vendors Representative shall bear the reasonable fees of one firm of legal counsel in each jurisdiction implicated in such Third Party Claim if, but only if, the defendants in such Third Party Claim include both Purchaser (or any its Affiliates) and any member of any Vendor’s Group and Purchaser shall have reasonably concluded, based on the advice of legal counsel, that there is a material conflict of interest between Purchaser or any such Affiliate and any such member of any Vendor’s Group with respect to such Third Party Claim. In these circumstances, the Vendors Representative shall consult with the Purchaser on significant matters relating to the defence of such Third Party Claim and take such actions as the Purchaser may reasonably request to avoid, resist, dispute, appeal, compromise, remedy or defend such Third Party Claim;

(v) the Vendors Representative shall be entitled to enter into any settlement of such Third Party Claim or withdraw from proceedings vis a vis or with a claimant to the extent such claimant gives to the Purchaser and its Affiliates an unconditional release from all liability with respect to such Third Party Claim; provided, that the Vendors Representative shall not settle any such Third Party Claim or so withdraw from proceedings without the prior written consent of the Purchaser unless such settlement (A) does not involve any non-monetary relief against or any finding or admission of any violation of Law or wrongdoing by the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates, (B) does not result in any adverse precedent or contain any provision encumbering or restricting any assets of the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates otherwise adversely affecting the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates, and (C) any money damages are borne solely by the Vendors.

(c) If the Vendors Representative notifies the Purchaser that it does not elect to conduct the defence of the Third Party Claim, or if it fails to inform the Purchaser of its choice within the time limit set out in paragraph (b), the Purchaser or its relevant Affiliate shall comply with the provisions of paragraph (a) with respect to such Third Party Claim.

49

an inducement to enter into this Agreement), may be made only against the persons that are expressly identified as Parties hereto (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the Parent).

(b) No person who is not a named Party, including without limitation any Affiliate, or director, officer, employee, incorporator, member, partner, shareholder, agent, attorney, adviser or representative, of any named Party or any of its Affiliates (the Non-Party Affiliates), shall have any liability (whether in contract, in tort or otherwise) for any obligations or liabilities arising under, in connection with or related to this Agreement or any certificate delivered pursuant hereto or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of this Agreement or any certificate delivered pursuant hereto or their negotiation or execution; and each Party hereto undertakes that it shall not make any such claim against, and waives and releases any such liabilities, claims and obligations against any such Non-Party Affiliates (except, in each case, as may be expressly agreed between the Purchaser and any such Vendor).

11. VENDORS REPRESENTATIVE

(a) Each Vendor hereby irrevocably appoints HRA Lux to act as its representative (the Vendors Representative) and to represent each Vendor for the purposes contemplated by this Agreement in accordance with the provisions of article 1153 et seq. of the French Civil Code.

(b) Each Vendor being a natural person hereby specifically authorizes, under article 1161 of the French Civil Code, the Vendors Representative to act as representative of several Vendors for the purpose of the negotiation and execution on their behalf of any agreement or document to which such Vendors are parties.

(c) Each Vendor who does not hold or holds part of its Securities in a plan d’épargne en actions hereby irrevocably authorises the Vendors Representative to withhold such proportion of its allocable portion of the Purchase Price in order to pay its share of the costs and expenses of the Vendors in connection with this Agreement (the Deducted Vendors Costs). If its allocable portion of the Purchase Price corresponding to its Securities held outside a plan d’épargne en actions is not sufficient to cover its share of the costs and expenses of a Vendor, the remaining part of such costs and expenses shall not be withheld and deducted by the Vendors Representative but such Vendor shall pay it separately prior to the Completion by wire transfer to the bank account of the Vendors Representative.

(d) Each Vendor hereby irrevocably agrees that it shall be bound by any steps or actions taken or any agreement entered into by the Vendors Representative acting in accordance with this Agreement, in particular (without limitation) pursuant to Clauses 3.4, 10.3, 11 and 20.

50

(e) If for any reason HRA Lux shall not be able to act as the Vendors Representative and the Vendors nominate in writing another person to fill the role of Vendors Representative, such other person as shall be so notified in writing to the Purchaser by the Vendors shall be the Vendors Representative in substitution for HRA Lux so long as such other person is reasonably acceptable to the Purchaser; provided, that HRA Lux shall nevertheless remain responsible to Purchaser for any breach by the Vendors Representative of any of its obligations hereunder.

(f) Each Vendor irrevocably and unconditionally undertakes to indemnify and hold the Vendors Representative harmless against all Losses arising from the exercise or the purported exercise in good faith of any of the rights or duties of the Vendors Representative contemplated by this Agreement.

12. U.S. SPECIAL RESOLUTION REGIME

(a) In the event that HRA Lux becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of this Agreement (and any interest and obligation in or under, and any property securing, this Agreement) from HRA Lux will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement (and any such interest, obligation and property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.

(b) In the event HRA Lux or any of its Affiliates becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, any Default Rights (as defined in 12 C.F.R. § 252.81 (Default Right)) under this Agreement that may be exercised against HRA Lux are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.

13. ADVISORS

The Parties declare they were advised by their own lawyers or advisors and have therefore been able to independently assess the scope of their rights and obligations under this Agreement and had the opportunity to negotiate all terms of this Agreement. Consequently, no advisor or lawyer shall be deemed to be the sole drafter (rédacteur unique) on behalf of all the Parties and the Parties acknowledge and agree that this Agreement shall not be deemed a contract of adhesion (contrat d’adhésion) within the meaning of article 1110 of the French Civil Code.

14. CONFIDENTIALITY AND ANNOUNCEMENTS

(a) The Purchaser and the Vendors Representative shall mutually agree on the content of the press release to be issued on or about the date hereof announcing the execution of this Agreement on or about the Completion Date announcing the Completion of the Transaction. With respect to all other press releases, public announcements or filings of any kind concerning the Transaction, the Vendors Representative and the Purchaser shall consult together and agree as to the terms of, the timetable for and the manner of publication of any announcement which either Party may desire to make regarding the Transaction or this Agreement and no other Party shall make any such press release, public announcement or filing concerning the subject matter of this Agreement, without the prior written consent of the Purchaser and the Vendors Representative (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided, that no such consultation, agreement or consent shall be required with respect to any press release, public announcement or filing that (i) is not inconsistent with previous press releases, public announcements or filings made by the Vendors Representative or the Purchaser in compliance with this Clause 14(a) or

51

Each Party undertakes that it shall only disclose Confidential Information to its Representatives and providers of finance (i) where it is reasonably required for the purposes of performing its obligations under this Agreement or in the case of the Purchaser Group, in connection with any debt financing contemplated by Clause 5.6 or for the operation of its business and the business of HRA NewCo, the Mancos or the Group Companies following the Completion in the ordinary course, and (ii) only where such recipients are informed of the confidential nature of the Confidential Information and have undertaken to comply with this Clause 14 as if they were a party to it and, (iii) in the case of the Purchaser, for the purposes of the Transaction.

(d) Clauses (a) and (b) shall not apply if and to the extent that the Party using or disclosing Confidential Information or making such press release, public announcement or filing can demonstrate that:

(ii) such disclosure is made to a Party’s Affiliate(s) or its or their directors, officers or senior employees to the extent reasonably required for purposes connected with this Agreement, in which case the disclosing person is responsible for ensuring that the

(f) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the prior written consent of the Broad Street Entity shall be required for the inclusion of any Confidential Information in relation to the identity of any GS Affiliates (including their affiliation with the Company prior to Completion hereunder) in any press release, public announcements or filings of any kind regarding the Transaction or this Agreement, it being specified that if such press release, public announcements or filings is required by applicable Law, court process or the listing agreement or the listing rules of any securities exchange, the consent of the other Parties shall not be required and the disclosing Party shall, prior to making such disclosure and to the extent reasonably practicable, consult with the other Parties in good faith, and consider any comments timely proposed by the other Parties with respect to the portion of such disclosure that references the identity of such Party or Party’s Affiliates.

(g) The provisions of this Clause 14 shall survive termination of this Agreement or Completion, as the case may be, and shall continue for a period of five years from the Put Option Date.

15. FURTHER ASSURANCE

Each Party shall, following the Completion Date, execute and deliver or procure, so far as they are reasonably able, the execution and delivery of, all such documents, and do all such things, as the Purchaser and/or the Vendors (as the case may be) may reasonably require at the cost of the requesting Party for the purpose of giving full effect to the provisions of this Agreement.

18. WAIVER AND VARIATION – HARDSHIP

(a) Unless otherwise specifically provided, a failure or delay by a Party to exercise any right or remedy provided under this Agreement or by Law, whether by conduct or otherwise, shall not constitute a waiver of that or any other right or remedy, nor shall it preclude or restrict any further exercise of that or any other right or remedy. No single or partial exercise of any right or remedy provided under this Agreement or by Law, whether by conduct or otherwise, shall preclude or restrict the further exercise of that or any other right or remedy.

(b) Unless otherwise specifically provided, a waiver of any right, provision, condition, consent or remedy or any discharge of any obligation or liability under this Agreement shall only be effective if given in writing.

(c) No variation or amendment of this Agreement shall be valid unless it is in writing and duly executed by or on behalf of the Purchaser and the Vendors Representative. Unless expressly agreed, no variation or amendment shall constitute a general waiver of any provision of this Agreement, nor shall it affect any rights or obligations under or pursuant to this Agreement which have already accrued up to the date of variation or amendment and the rights and obligations under or pursuant to this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect except and only to the extent that they are varied or amended.

(d) Each Party irrevocably waives any rights and remedies that it may have under article 1195 of the French Civil Code.

54

55

made pursuant to this paragraph shall be in writing and in compliance with the provisions of articles 1216 to 1216-3 of the French Civil Code.

(iii) Parent is validly incorporated, in existence and duly registered under the Laws of its country of incorporation;
