Section 2.1 Agreement to Vote.

 

(a) The Stockholder hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that, during the term of this Agreement, at the Parent Extraordinary General Meeting and at any other meeting of the Parent Stockholders, however called, including any adjournment or postponement thereof, and in connection with any written consent of the Parent Stockholders (the date of the taking of any such action being an applicable “Determination Date”), the Stockholder shall, in each case to the fullest extent that the Covered Parent Ordinary Shares are entitled to vote thereon or consent thereto, or in any other circumstance in which the vote, consent or other approval of the Parent Stockholders is sought:

(1) in favor of the approval of the issuance of the Parent Ordinary Shares and Parent ADRs (including the Parent Ordinary Shares underlying the Parent ADRs) in the Merger and in favor of the Transaction Resolutions;

 

(2) if (i) Parent has not received proxies representing the Parent Stockholder Approval, whether or not a quorum is present, (ii) there are insufficient Parent Ordinary Shares represented (either in person or by proxy) and voting to approve the Merger and the Contemplated Transactions to constitute a quorum necessary to conduct the business of the Parent Extraordinary General Meeting, or (iii) it is necessary to ensure that the filing and dissemination of any supplemental or amended disclosure which the Parent Board has determined in good faith is necessary under applicable Law be filed or disseminated to the Parent Stockholders, in favor of any proposal to adjourn a meeting of the Parent Stockholders to solicit additional proxies in favor of the approval of the Contemplated Transactions, including the Merger and the adoption of the Merger Agreement;

 

(3) against any Acquisition Proposal with respect to Parent, except a Non-Conflicting Acquisition Proposal; and

 

(4) against any other action, agreement or transaction that is intended to, or would reasonably be expected to, impede, interfere with, delay, postpone, discourage, frustrate the purposes of or adversely affect the Contemplated Transactions, including the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the performance by the Company of its obligations under the Merger Agreement or any other documents contemplated by the Merger Agreement or by the Stockholder of its obligations under this Agreement.

Section 2.2 No Inconsistent Agreements. The Stockholder represents, covenants and agrees that, except for this Agreement, the Stockholder (a) has not entered into, and shall not enter into at any time prior to the Termination Date, any voting agreement, voting trust or similar arrangement or understanding with respect to any Covered Parent Ordinary Shares, (b) has not granted, and shall not grant at any time prior to the Termination Date, a proxy (except in accordance with Section 2.3 hereof), consent or power of attorney with respect to any Covered Parent Ordinary Shares and (c) has not taken, and shall not take at any time while this Agreement remains in effect, any action that would (1) make any representation or warranty of the Stockholder contained herein untrue or incorrect, (2) violate or conflict with the Stockholder’s covenants and obligations under this Agreement or (3) otherwise have the effect of restricting, preventing or disabling the Stockholder from performing any of its obligations under this Agreement.

 

Section 2.3 Grant of Irrevocable Proxy. The Stockholder hereby irrevocably appoints as its proxy and attorney-in-fact the Company, and any other Person designated by the Company in writing (collectively, the “Grantees”), each of them individually, with full power of substitution and resubstitution, effective as of the date hereof and continuing until the Termination Date (the “Voting Period”), to vote (or execute written consents, if applicable) with respect to the Covered Parent Ordinary Shares as required pursuant to Section 2.1(a) and Section 2.1(b) hereof. The proxy granted by the Stockholder hereunder shall be irrevocable during the Voting Period, shall be deemed to be coupled with an interest sufficient in Law to support an irrevocable proxy, and the Stockholder (a) will take such further action or execute such other instruments as may be necessary to effectuate the intent of this proxy and (b) hereby revokes any proxy previously granted by the Stockholder with respect to any Covered Parent Ordinary Shares. The power of attorney granted by the Stockholder hereunder is a durable power of attorney and shall survive the bankruptcy or dissolution of the Stockholder. For Covered Parent Ordinary Shares as to which the Stockholder is the Beneficial Owner but not the holder of record, the Stockholder shall use reasonable best efforts to cause any holder of record of such Covered Parent Ordinary Shares to grant to the Grantees a proxy to the same effect as that described in this Section 2.3. The proxy granted by the Stockholder shall not be exercised to vote, consent or act on any matter except as contemplated by Section 2.1 and Section 2.3 of this Agreement. The proxy granted by the Stockholder shall be revoked, terminated and of no further force or effect, automatically and without further action, upon the valid termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 5.1.
