(ii)the ASX Cash Consideration, any Subsequent Capital Raise Payment and any Subsequent Cash Payment received by the Seller under this document is less than First Deferred Payment Balance by the date one (1) Business Day after the day that falls on the first anniversary of the Completion Date (the “Equity Conversion Date”), the Re-Domiciled Buyer Guarantor must, issue such number of Re-Domiciled Shares to the Seller (or any Related Body Corporate of the Seller nominated by the Seller at its sole discretion) on the Equity Conversion Date or a later date, if required in order to comply with applicable law or the rules of any applicable stock exchange, as directed by the Seller in writing (at the Seller’s sole discretion) as is equal to the quotient obtained by dividing:

(B)such number (in US$) as is equal to 70% of the volume weighted average market price of Re-Domiciled Shares over the twenty (20) trading day period prior to the Equity Conversion Date, and if at the Equity Conversion Date, the Re-Domiciled Shares (including any Securities, CDI, depository interest or analogous instrument issued by the Re-Domiciled Buyer Guarantor in respect of its Re-Domiciled Shares) are admitted to quotation on more than one (1) recognised stock exchange, the volume weighted average market price will be calculated by reference to the exchange with the largest volume of trading in Re-Domiciled Shares (in US$) over the relevant twenty (20) day trading period before the Equity Conversion Date,

(i)Completion having occurred in accordance with this document; and

 

(ii)the 18-Month Average Copper Price exceeding the First Target Copper Price (the “First Copper Price Trigger”),

(f)The parties acknowledge that the Buyer has sought senior, mezzanine and silver stream financing for the sole purpose of acquiring the Company and giving effect to the transactions contemplated by this document (“Transaction Finance”). To the extent the Transaction Finance would prohibit, or cause the Buyer to default on its obligations in connection with Transaction Finance, by paying a Copper Price Payment on a date earlier than the date one (1) Business Day after the earlier of any refinance of the Transaction Finance and third anniversary of the Completion Date, then:

 

(i)the Buyer must use its best endeavours to seek any consent, waiver or amendment to the Transaction Finance reasonably necessary to permit it to pay the relevant Copper Price Payment in accordance with clause 10A(d) or 10A(e) (as applicable) and must pay the relevant Copper Price Payment as soon as practicable and in any event within 5 Business Days after receipt of any such consent, waiver or amendment; or

 

Deed of Amendment, Consent & Covenant: CMPL Share Sale Agreement18

 

 

(ii)failing receipt of applicable consent, waiver or amendment as contemplated in clause 10A(f)(i), and to the extent the relevant Copper Price Payment is payable but has not otherwise been paid in accordance with this document, the Buyer must pay the relevant Copper Price Payment by no later than the day one (1) Business Day after the third anniversary of the Completion Date.

 

(g)For the avoidance of doubt, the First Copper Price Cash Consideration and Second Copper Price Cash Consideration are each one-time payments payable on the First Copper Price Trigger and Second Copper Price Trigger being first met in accordance with clause 10A(d) and 10A(e), respectively.

 

(h)The Buyer and Re-Domiciled Buyer Guarantor must promptly provide any information reasonably requested by the Seller in connection with:

 

(i)the calculation of any Relevant Interest amounts under this clause 10A(c), including copies of any mezzanine finance facilities and documents which substantiate the relevant rates and/or fees to be applied;

 

(ii)ensuring the Re-Domiciled Buyer Guarantor has complied with its obligations under clauses 10A(c)(i)(C) and 10A(f)(i) or which evidence or are relevant to any refusal or objection of any lenders or financiers to payments being made under those respective clauses, including the terms and conditions of any Transaction Finance documents and any communications and/or correspondence with any lenders or parties to any of the Transaction Finance documents;

 

(iii)the calculation of the volume weighted average market price under clause 10A(c)(ii)(B); and/or
