Attention: David Galan
Dear Sirs,
INDEMNITY LETTER
We refer to the following arrangements proposed to be entered into between, among others, Selina Hospitality PLC (the “Company”) and Kibbutz (or an affiliate thereof):
(a) | the provision by Kibbutz of a guarantee in respect of a secured convertible loan note in an aggregate principal amount of US$4,444,444 to be issued by Selina Management Company UK Ltd (the “Borrower”) (the “Transaction”). |
Kibbutz has requested the Company to provide certain indemnification to Kibbutz in connection with the Transaction, and in consideration of the mutual promises made between the Company and Kibbutz in connection with the Transaction, Kibbutz and the Company have agreed to enter into this letter (the “Letter”).
1. | DEFINITIONS |
In this Letter: “Company Group” means the Company and its subsidiary undertakings from time to time; “Indemnified Persons” means each of Kibbutz and its directors, officers, agents and employees (save for any such person who is also a director, officer, agent or employee of the Company at the relevant time) and any successor or assign of any such persons; “parent undertakings” and “subsidiary undertakings” shall each be construed in accordance with section 1162 of the Companies Act 2006; and “person” shall include a reference to a body corporate, association or partnership.
2. | INDEMNITY |
(a) | The Company hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnified Person from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses which any such Indemnified Person may suffer or incur or, in each case, actions in respect thereof, related to or arising out of any breach or alleged breach of (i) applicable securities laws and/or (ii) the terms of the $147.5 million of 6% senior unsecured convertible notes due 2026, in each case by any member of the Company Group and/or any of its or their respective employees, officers or directors in connection with the Transaction (but excluding any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses judicially determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from an Indemnified Person’s negligence, wilful default, misrepresentation, fraud or breach of contract), and the Company will reimburse any Indemnified Person for all reasonable expenses (including properly incurred legal fees and any irrecoverable VAT on any incurred expenses) as they are incurred by such Indemnified Person in connection with investigating, preparing or defending any such action or claim, whether or not in connection with a pending or threatened litigation in which such Indemnified Person is a party. |
1 |
(b) | If an Indemnified Person is subject to tax in respect of any indemnity payable under paragraph (a) above, the Company agrees that the sum payable by the Company shall be increased to such amount as will ensure that after payment of such tax such Indemnified Person shall be left with a sum equal to the amount that it would have received in the absence of such charge to tax (after giving credit for any tax relief available in respect of the matter giving rise to the indemnity). |
(c) | Where any Indemnified Person is jointly and/or severally liable with another person in connection with any matter for which such Indemnified Person seeks indemnification from the Company pursuant to this Letter, the total amount recoverable by the Indemnified Person from the Company pursuant to the indemnity contained in paragraph (a) above shall be limited to such proportion as is found in a final judicial determination to be just and equitable, having regard to the relative responsibility of, on the one hand, the Indemnified Person and, on the other hand, the relevant other person(s). This will be so regardless of whether (i) such other person(s) is (are) or could be a party to any relevant proceedings or (ii) any liability of such other person(s) is (are) or could be limited. |
(d) | Kibbutz (for itself and each other Indemnified Person) agrees that no Indemnified Person will, without the prior written consent of the Company, settle any litigation or any claim whatsoever by any person or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or in respect of which indemnification may be sought under this Letter, regardless of whether or not any Indemnified Person is an actual or potential party thereto. |
(e) | The indemnity set out in paragraph (a) above shall not apply to the extent prohibited by law or any rules or regulations applicable from time to time to the Company or any Indemnified Person. |
3. | THIRD PARTY RIGHTS |
Save for the provisions of this Letter which confer a benefit on Indemnified Persons other than Kibbutz (each, a “Third Party Beneficiary”), which, subject to such Third Party Beneficiary obtaining Kibbutz’s prior written consent, are intended to be enforceable by each such Third Party Beneficiary by virtue of the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999, the parties to this Letter do not intend that any term of this Letter should be enforceable by virtue of the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 by any person who is not a party to this Letter. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this paragraph 3, this Letter may be terminated or amended, and any term of this Letter may be waived in any way and at any time, by the agreement of the parties to this Letter, without the consent of any Third Party Beneficiary.
