  7.1.2 As from the notice of exercise of the Call Option, the Beneficiary shall benefit from a thirty (30) days period (the “Due Diligence Period”) during which it shall be able to conduct a due diligence of the Company (the “Due Diligence”). The Grantors and the Company will provide the Beneficiary full access to the premises and personnel of the Company as well as to any document and notably all financial, accounting, legal, tax and corporate documents and including without limitation all the necessary information and documents required to evaluate the Option Purchase Price (including the products sale contracts and the margin per contracts, turnover for the Sales Revenue for Conceptus Products and Non-Conceptus product, on a monthly basis and the monthly reporting) and all documents and information in response to any due diligence request list sent to Grantors by the Beneficiary. The Grantors shall cooperate fully with the Beneficiary and its representatives during the Due Diligence Period.

 

At the end of the Due Diligence Period, the Beneficiary shall provide the Grantors’ and Managers’ Agent with copies of all the information and documents provided to the Beneficiary during the Due Diligence Period (the “Due Diligence Documents”).

Absent any such confirmation, the Beneficiary shall be deemed not to have exercised the Call Option and will be under no obligation to purchase the Option Shares (unless it exercises the Call Option again in accordance with Article 7.1.1 et seq.)

 

  7.1.5 The Beneficiary, if and when confirming the exercise of the Call Option and if mutually agreeable to the Grantor, shall have the right to review for potential purchase the distribution rights to Non-Conceptus Products (the “Other Products Option”) in accordance with Article 7.2. However, following the Transfer of the Option Shares, the Company shall not be required to continue to distribute the Non-Conceptus Products and shall be entitled to terminate these agreements, as set out in Article 6.5.1, in case the Other Products Option is not exercised.

Option Purchase Price on an escrow account at the Caisse des Dépôts et Consignations (the “Escrow Agent”), the delivery of a copy of the Call Option to the Company together with a copy of the notice to enforce the Call Option and the receipt from the Escrow Agent, will be a sufficient exchange order and the Company will therefore be required to transcribe the change of ownership of the Option Shares in its book and in the corresponding shareholders’ accounts. The Grantors expressly agree on the foregoing.

 

The Company, party to this Agreement, expressly agrees to act as the agent of the Parties.

 

Notwithstanding Article 1142 of the French Civil code, Parties agree that in case of a default by one Party, the other Party will be authorized to obtain a “specific performance” before a French Court (meaning the transfer of the Option Shares) by exception to damages.

 

7.4 Undertakings of the Grantors and the Beneficiary

 

  7.4.1 Undertakings of the Grantors

 

For the duration of the Call Option, the Grantors shall not transfer, pledge or grant a security over, or in general otherwise dispose of the Option Shares in any manner whatsoever.

 

For the duration of the Call Option the Grantors also undertake and will procure (se portent fort) that the Company will limit the shareholding of the Company (without any restriction) to individuals (personnes physiques) who shall accept in writing, before subsecribing any securities of the Company, to be bound by this Agreement (and shall adhere in writing to this Agreement as “Grantors”) and especially by all the undertakings of the Grantors set out in this Article 7. In addition, none of those individuals shall be have a controlling interest or be an officer in a company that is a competitor to the Beneficiary.

 

For the duration of the Call Option and upon request, the Company and the Grantors undertake to provide the Beneficiary with (i) the monthly Company’s Sales Revenue for Conceptus Products and the Company’s Sales Revenue for Non-Conceptus Products and (ii) full access to any information and documents (including the financial accounts, the turnover for each of the Sales Revenue for Conceptus Products and Non-Conceptus product, on a monthly basis and the monthly reporting) in order for the Beneficiary to be able to have a clear understanding of the way the Conceptus Products and Non-Conceptus Products are distinguished and separated.

 

  7.4.2 Undertakings of the Beneficiary

 

In the event the Call Option is exercised and because the Company’s employees have consented a lower remuneration because of the financial situation of the Companies on the Transfer Date, the Beneficiary undertakes to have the Company’s employees offered the possibility to revert to the employment contracts provisions they benefited from immediately before the Transfer Date as an incentive to have the Company’s employees remain with the Company.

 

7.5 Representations and Warranties of the Managers

 

The Managers represent and warrant to the Beneficiary that the statements contained in this Article 7.5 together with the Disclosure Schedule and the Due Diligence Disclosure will be correct and complete as of the Transfer of the Option Shares Date.
