RECITALS

A.     On August 11, 2016, the parties entered into a Contribution Agreement (the “Contribution Agreement”), which provided for a business combination transaction between the parties by means of (i) the contribution by ARWA of cash to the Company in exchange for the issuance by the Company of Company Shares to ARWA, and (ii) the distribution by ARWA of the Company Shares to the holders of ARWA Ordinary Shares by means of a dividend and to the holders of the ARWA Warrants by means of a special distribution, as a result of which the Company would become a public company owned by the existing security holders of the Company and ARWA.

B.     The parties desire to amend the Contribution Agreement, in accordance with Section 11.11 thereof, to (i) reduce the Contribution Amount and the number of Contribution Shares, (ii) amend the definition of “Transaction Fees and Expenses”, (iii) adjust the number of Make-even Shares that may be repurchased by the Company from AWN in certain circumstances, (iv) increase the number of ARWA Ordinary Shares as to which the holders thereof may exercise their Conversion Rights without causing the conditions to the obligations of the parties to effect the Transactions to not be satisfied, (v) provide for certain notes and preferred shares of Aevitas to remain outstanding after the Transactions, and (vi) amend certain other terms of the Merger Agreement.
