OIC Financing

Financing Transaction

On September 21, 2023, MergeCo entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “OIC Purchase Agreement”) with OIC Structured Equity Fund I Range, LLC and OIC Structured Equity Fund I GPFA Range, LLC (fund vehicles affiliated with Orion Infrastructure Capital, or “OIC”, and collectively, the “OIC Investors”) and Carbon Revolution (for the limited purposes set forth therein), pursuant to which MergeCo agreed to sell (i) up to an aggregate of 1,100 Class A preferred shares with a nominal value of US$0.0001 per share (the “Preferred Shares”), which are not convertible into MergeCo Ordinary Shares, and (ii) a warrant (the “OIC MergeCo Warrant”) to acquire up to an aggregate of 19.99% of MergeCo Ordinary Shares calculated on a fully-diluted basis following the consummation of the Business Combination (the “OIC Warrant Shares”), with the right to acquire 12.50% of fully-diluted MergeCo Ordinary Shares vesting immediately following the Business Combination, and the right to the remainder vesting upon the achievement of certain subsequent conditions. In addition, in connection with the execution of the OIC Purchase Agreement, Carbon Revolution issued a warrant (the “OIC Carbon Revolution Warrant” and, together with the OIC MergeCo Warrant, the “OIC Warrants”) to acquire up to an aggregate of 6,000,000 Carbon Revolution Ordinary Shares, which OIC Carbon Revolution Warrant is intended to constitute a portion of the structuring premium payable to the OIC Investors and their affiliates with respect to the investment and termination fee payable by Carbon Revolution to the OIC Investors if the transactions contemplated by the OIC Purchase Agreement are not consummated. The OIC Carbon Revolution Warrant will be cancelled upon payment of the Initial Structuring Premium (as defined in the OIC Purchase Agreement) in connection with the Initial Closing (as defined in the OIC Purchase Agreement) or upon payment of the Superior Proposal Termination Fee (as defined herein).

The investment in the Preferred Shares is staged in three tranches: (i) $35 million funded by the OIC Investors at the Initial Closing and immediately available by MergeCo for the use of proceeds described herein, (ii) $35 million funded by the OIC Investors at the Initial Closing into an escrow account, subject to release to MergeCo at a Reserve Release Closing (as defined in the OIC Purchase Agreement) upon satisfaction of the conditions described below, and (iii) up to $40 million to be funded by the OIC Investors at one or more Subsequent Closings (as defined in the OIC Purchase Agreement) upon notice to the OIC Investors and satisfaction of the conditions described below.

OIC Purchase Agreement

The OIC Purchase Agreement provides for an aggregate $70 million invested by the OIC Investors at the Initial Closing, of which gross proceeds of $35 million will be allocated to the OIC Investors’ purchase of Preferred Shares and the OIC Warrants at the Initial Closing, and of which gross proceeds of $35 million will be placed into escrow. The OIC Purchase Agreement also provides for the $35 million placed into escrow to be released upon satisfaction of one or more of the Reserve Release Closings, and up to $40 million in one or more Subsequent Closings, subject to certain conditions precedent, as described herein. The Reserve Release Closings are subject to the satisfaction of the First Reserve Release Condition and/or the Second Reserve Release Condition (as applicable), each as described in further detail below. If the Reserve Release Conditions are not satisfied and OIC does not release the amounts held in escrow, the OIC Investors’ entitlement to a 5.00% increase to the Vested Warrant Percentage under the OIC MergeCo Warrant, which vests upon the OIC Investors’ subscription for the Second Reserve Release securities, will not vest. Subsequent Closings under the OIC Purchase Agreement may take place within twenty-four months following the Initial Closing, with such proceeds to be used for the development, construction, and/or retooling of future manufacturing facilities. MergeCo intends to use the proceeds of the Subsequent Closings for the construction of a new manufacturing facility in a lower-cost country. The conditions precedent for such Subsequent Closings include MergeCo’s adherence with an Investor-approved budget, delivery of a capex plan to the OIC Investors regarding the use of Subsequent Closing proceeds, the listing of the MergeCo Ordinary Shares on the NYSE American or Nasdaq, and the approval of the additional investment by the OIC Investors’ investment committee in its sole discretion, among other customary closing requirements. The approval of the additional investment by the OIC Investors’ investment committee is entirely within the control of OIC. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that MergeCo will be able to receive any proceeds in excess of the $35 million to be funded at the Initial Closing or, if the conditions to a Reserve Release Closing are satisfied, an aggregate of $70 million, including the amounts funded

S-1

into the escrow account. If OIC fails to fund a Subsequent Closing despite the satisfaction of the conditions precedent thereto other than the approval of the OIC Investors’ investment committee, certain rights granted to OIC under the OIC Warrant to obtain the OIC Investors’ approval over future issuances of equity securities by MergeCo will automatically terminate.

The OIC Purchase Agreement obligates us to indemnify the OIC Investors and various related parties for certain losses including those resulting from (i) any misrepresentation or breach of any representation or warranty made by us, (ii) any breach of any obligation of ours, and (iii) certain claims by third parties.

The OIC Purchase Agreement contains representations and warranties of us and the OIC Investors, which are typical for transactions of this type. In addition, the OIC Purchase Agreement contains certain covenants by MergeCo, including the following: (i) MergeCo agreed to offer to the OIC Investors, until the earlier of (i) the date that is 24 months after the date of the Initial Closing and (ii) first date on which all Subsequent Acquired Interests and Reserve Release Acquired Interests (as described in the OIC Purchase Agreement) have been issued to, and subscribed for by, the OIC Investors, the opportunity to participate in any subsequent financing transaction by MergeCo and (ii) MergeCo agreed to use its best efforts to obtain aggregate gross proceeds of at least $20,000,000 from the issuance and sale of MergeCo Ordinary Shares by the one-year anniversary of the Initial Closing.

In addition, as a condition to the Initial Closing, we are required to deliver resolutions of the MergeCo board of directors and its sole member prior to completion of the Business Combination, approving the Share Capital Reduction (as defined in the OIC Purchase Agreement). MergeCo is required to apply to the High Court of Ireland for an order confirming the Share Capital Reduction (the “Share Capital Reduction Order”) and use best efforts to obtain the Share Capital Reduction Order as promptly as practicable (and any event within 60 days of the Initial Closing). If MergeCo fails to obtain a Share Capital Reduction Order within 60 days of the Initial Closing, then the OIC Investors have the right to withdraw the entire amount of the Reserve Funds (plus accrued interest) then remaining in the Reserve Amount or a combination of waiving and withdrawing funds.

The Share Capital Reduction is being proposed because under Irish law, MergeCo may only pay dividends and make other distributions (and, generally, make share repurchases and redemptions) out of profits available for distribution (“distributable profits”) shown on its unconsolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with the Irish Companies Act 2014, as amended (the “Irish Companies Act”) and filed with the Irish Companies Registration office. Distributable profits are a company’s accumulated realized profits, so far as not previously utilized by distribution or capitalization, less its accumulated realized losses, so far as not previously written off in a reduction or reorganization of capital, and include reserves arising as a result of a court approved reduction of company capital. Following completion of the Business Combination and Initial Closing, MergeCo, as a new parent company with no operational history of its own, will initially have no distributable profits arising from trading activities. The Share Capital Reduction is intended to create a level of distributable profits which are available to cover, in part, the amount of any cash dividend or redemption amount payable to the holders of the Preferred Shares. The Share Capital Reduction will involve the reduction of the company capital of MergeCo pursuant to sections 84 and 85 of the Irish Companies Act, to be effected by (a) the reduction and cancellation of the entire amount of MergeCo’s un-denominated capital (in the form of share premium) on the date immediately following the Initial Closing date and (b) if applicable, the capitalization, reduction and cancellation of the entire of any amount standing to the credit of any merger reserve or other un-distributable reserve of MergeCo on the date immediately following the Initial Closing date, with the resulting reserve to be treated as distributable profits under Irish law. This is a legal and accounting adjustment and will not of itself have any impact on the number of MergeCo shares held by any MergeCo shareholder.

In addition, in the event that at any time in the future MergeCo has insufficient distributable profits to cover the amount of any cash dividend or redemption amount payable on the Preferred Shares, MergeCo is required to take all steps to effect Further Share Capital Reductions (as defined in the OIC Purchase Agreement), being further reductions of its company capital pursuant to sections 84 and 85 of the Irish Companies Act, including (a) the reduction and cancellation of MergeCo’s then un-denominated capital and (b) the capitalization, reduction and cancellation of amounts then standing to the credit of any other un-distributable reserve of MergeCo, such that the resulting reserve will be treated as distributable profits under Irish law.

MergeCo agrees that from the date of the OIC Purchase Agreement until the Initial Closing, MergeCo, its subsidiaries and Carbon Revolution Operations will not, directly or indirectly, (a) solicit or initiate any inquiry,

S-2

indication of interest, proposal or offer from any third-party, relating to a Competing Transaction (as defined in the OIC Purchase Agreement), (b) participate in any discussions or negotiations with, or make information available to, any third-party, regarding a Competing Transaction or (c) enter into any understanding, arrangement, agreement, agreement in principle or other commitment (whether or not legally binding) with any third-party, relating to a Competing Transaction. If the board of directors of Carbon Revolution determines that a proposal received from a third-party is a superior proposal (as defined in the Scheme Implementation Deed) and enters into a definitive agreement with such third-party, the OIC Investors are entitled to receive as liquidated damages an amount equal to $1,500,000 upon termination of the OIC Purchase Agreement (the “Superior Proposal Termination Fee”). Upon payment of the Superior Proposal Termination Fee, the OIC Investors will surrender the OIC Carbon Revolution Warrant for no consideration and the OIC Carbon Revolution Warrant will be cancelled. If the OIC Purchase Agreement is terminated for any reason other than termination due to receipt of a third-party superior proposal and the subsequent entry into a definitive agreement with such third-party (and such termination right in connection with a third-party superior proposal and definitive agreement is not otherwise available), in addition to retaining the OIC Carbon Revolution Warrant, the OIC Investors are entitled to receive as liquidated damages an amount equal to $500,000.

Prior to the Initial Closing, MergeCo is required to satisfy a number of closing conditions. These conditions include, but are not limited to, (i) the sole member of MergeCo prior to completion of the Business Combination having resolved to approve the Share Capital Reduction and directed the MergeCo board of directors to take all steps necessary or expedient to effect the Share Capital Reduction, (ii) publication of an announcement on the Australian Securities Exchange and a prospectus supplement filing with the SEC regarding MergeCo’s entry into the OIC Purchase Agreement and MergeCo’s intention to effect a Share Capital Reduction, (iii) the requirement that there be no intercompany indebtedness among MergeCo, its subsidiaries, affiliates and Carbon Revolution Operations other than employee lease agreements, (iv) MergeCo having obtained certain specified consents and waivers with respect to existing arrangements to which MergeCo is a party, (v) MergeCo is to obtain certain consents and waivers from its existing counterparties, (vi) the MergeCo Ordinary Shares shall have been approved for listing on NYSE American or Nasdaq, (vii) no material amendment or waiver to any provision or term of the Business Combination Agreement shall have occurred without the consent of the OIC Investors and the Scheme Acquisition (as defined in the OIC Purchase Agreement) shall have occurred, (viii) MergeCo will enter into certain commercial arrangements and (ix) copies of executed agreements with certain persons relating to the deferral of fees owed to such persons by MergeCo, its subsidiaries or Carbon Revolution Operations in form and substance mutually agreed between MergeCo and the OIC Investors. MergeCo is also required to deliver, among other items, prior to the Initial Closing (i) evidence of the issuance of 350 Preferred Shares and the OIC MergeCo Warrant, (ii) an amount in cash equal to the Initial Structuring Premium to OIC, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, (iii) a board approved budget through December 31, 2024, as mutually agreed upon by MergeCo and the OIC Investors which budget will include research and development expenses, selling, general and administrative expenses, property, plant and equipment and capital expenditures of no more than $53,247,000 in the aggregate, (iv) an executed Shareholder’s Agreement and Escrow Agreement and (v) resolutions of the MergeCo board of directors and its sole member prior to completion of the Business Combination approving certain actions, including the Share Capital Reduction.

Upon the date that MergeCo has satisfied the following conditions (collectively, the “Second Reserve Release Condition”), provided that such date is on or before December 1, 2024 or, if MergeCo is continuing to work in good faith to satisfy the Second Reserve Release Condition as of December 1, 2024, on or before January 31, 2025: (a) (i) refinanced or otherwise repaid the IP Loan Facility (as defined in the OIC Purchase Agreement) in full with a new term debt or a working capital facility on terms reasonably satisfactory to the OIC Investors or (ii) delivered to the OIC Investors evidence reasonably satisfactory to the OIC Investors that MergeCo will be able to refinance or otherwise repay the IP Loan Facility in full on or prior to December 1, 2024 (or, if the parties are working in good faith to refinance or otherwise repay the IP Loan Facility in full as of December 1, 2024, on or prior to January 15, 2025) using, without duplication, (x) the remaining Reserve Funds as of such time, (y) identifiable and available sources of cash and cash equivalents as of such time and/or (z) the anticipated aggregate gross proceeds under any then-existing MergeCo contracts, (b) realized a wheel production of 194 wheels per day over the trailing three (3) consecutive months and 208 wheels per day in the preceding one (1) month and (c) achieved a realized average contribution margin of $619 per unit on wheels sold over the trailing three (3) consecutive months, then the OIC Investors will

S-3

subscribe for and acquire and MergeCo will allot, issue and sell to the OIC Investors, (a) such number of Preferred Shares as is equal to (i) the entire amount of the Reserve Funds (plus interest accrued thereon) then remaining in the Reserve Account divided by (ii) the Per Share Subscription Price (the “Second Reserve Release Closing”).

If, prior to the satisfaction of the Second Reserve Release Condition, MergeCo has received aggregate gross proceeds of at least $10 million from one or more issuances and sales of Ordinary Shares to one or more third-party Persons (other than the OIC Investors and their affiliates), then the OIC Investors will subscribe for and acquire and MergeCo will allot, issue and sell to the OIC Investors, (a) such number of Preferred Shares as is equal to (i) $5 million divided by (ii) the Per Share Subscription Price (as defined in the OIC Purchase Agreement) (an “Initial Reserve Release Closing” and, together with the Second Reserve Release Closing, the “Reserve Release Closings”).

The Reserve Release Closings are subject to certain closing conditions, including, but not limited to, the absence of a material adverse effect, no intercompany indebtedness existing among MergeCo, its affiliates and Carbon Revolution Operations, the absence of certain legal proceedings in connection with the transactions contemplated by the OIC Purchase Agreement, the continued listing of the MergeCo Ordinary Shares on the NYSE American or Nasdaq and the delivery of certain deliverables.

In connection with each Subsequent Closing, MergeCo is required to, among other things deliver a capex plan, prepared in good faith and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the OIC Investors, relating to the use of the proceeds from such Subsequent Closing and pay to OIC LP an amount in cash equal to the applicable Subsequent Structuring Premium for such Subsequent Closing. In addition, each Subsequent Closing is subject to certain closing conditions, including, but not limited to, the absence of a material adverse effect, no intercompany indebtedness existing among MergeCo, its affiliates and Carbon Revolution Operations, the absence of certain legal proceedings in connection with the transactions contemplated by the OIC Purchase Agreement, the continued listing of the MergeCo Ordinary Shares on the NYSE American or Nasdaq, the satisfaction of certain conditions set forth in a schedule to the OIC Purchase Agreement related to any Subsequent Plant (as defined in the OIC Purchase Agreement), and the OIC Investors’ investment committee shall have approved in its sole discretion the subscription for the applicable Subsequent Acquired Interests (as defined in the OIC Purchase Agreement).

The OIC Purchase Agreement provides that the Initial Closing shall occur within fifteen (15) business days after the consummation of the Business Combination and satisfaction of the above-mentioned conditions precedent, unless the parties thereto otherwise agree.

Preferred Shares

The terms of the Preferred Shares are as set forth in the MergeCo Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association.

The holders of the Preferred Shares are entitled to cumulative dividends of 12% per annum, on the Class A Preferred Share Amount (as defined in the Constitution) of each Preferred Share during the applicable fiscal quarter, which accrue daily and are payable in cash or shares of Preferred Shares at MergeCo’s option, in accordance with the terms of the MergeCo Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association. No distributions shall be made with respect to any shares in the capital of the MergeCo prior to the holders of Preferred Shares having received their Class A Preferred Share Return (as defined below). On return of capital on liquidation, a capital reduction or otherwise, the assets remaining shall first be applied in paying the holders of preferred shares (the “Preferred Shareholders”) prior and in preference to the members holding any other class of shares in the capital of MergeCo. Upon redemption, the holders of the Preferred Shares are also entitled to receive a dividend make-whole payment. The holders of Preferred Shares have the right to exercise a number of votes at any general meeting of MergeCo, calculated in accordance with the formula set forth in the MergeCo Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association. MergeCo may elect to redeem some or all of the Preferred Shares during the five years following the Initial Closing, and is required to redeem the Preferred Shares on the fifth anniversary of the Initial Closing in cash. “Class A Preferred Share Return” means an amount of cash or redemption payments sufficient to cause the holders of Preferred Shares to receive the aggregate of the sum of (x) in the case of the Initial and Released Class A Preferred Shares (as defined in the MergeCo Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association ), (i) the greater of (A) a MOIC (as defined in the MergeCo Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association ) of one and three

S-4

quarters (1.75) or (B) a twelve percent (12%) IRR with respect to $70,000,000 less the OIC Reserve Recovery Amount (as defined in the MergeCo Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, if any; plus (ii) a MOIC of one and one quarter (1.25) with respect to the OIC Reserve Recovery Amount), which shall be allocated pro rata amongst the Initial and Released Class A Preferred Shares; (y) with respect to any Preferred Share issued on a Subsequent Closing, the greater of (A) a MOIC of one and three quarters (1.75) or (B) a twelve percent (12%) IRR with respect to the Class A Preferred Share Amount attributable thereto; and (z) with respect to each Class A Preferred PIK Share (as defined in the MergeCo Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association ) issued, the Class A Preferred Share Amount attributable thereto, plus any accrued but unpaid dividends thereon, provided, however, that if the Preferred Share by reference to which a Class A Preferred PIK Share was issued, is redeemed, such Class A Preferred PIK Share shall also be deemed to be redeemed for no additional consideration.

MergeCo is subject to certain affirmative and negative covenants regarding the conduct of business, use of proceeds, tax matters, procurement of insurance, equity financings, rights of first offer, and Further Share Capital Reductions, among other matters. For example, before the Initial Closing, except if the operations are covered by the Most Recent Budget or otherwise consented to by the OIC Investors, MergeCo is required to operate its business in the ordinary course consistent with its financial statements and use good faith reasonable efforts to maintain key assets, personnel, relationships and arrangements, avoid actions that could lead to a material adverse effect and consummate the transactions contemplated by the OIC Purchase Agreement. In addition, MergeCo is not permitted prior to the Initial Closing to incur fees, expenses, costs or other liabilities in excess of the Most Recent Budget without prior written consent of the OIC Investors or if such fees, expenses, costs or other liabilities are paid exclusively from the proceeds of an equity financing consummated after the date of the OIC Purchase Agreement. In addition, the proceeds from the OIC Purchase Agreement are required to be used consistently with the Most Recent Budget and the funds flow attached to the OIC Purchase Agreement and not for any other purpose without the consent of the Investors. MergeCo and its subsidiaries also covenant to timely satisfy and comply with their obligations under the Business Combination Agreement and related ancillary agreements. For purposes of this Supplement, “Most Recent Budget” means (i) until the first date on which an Approved Budget (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) has been delivered to the OIC Investors, the most recent budget approved by the MergeCo board of directors and (ii) on and after the first date on which an Approved Budget has been delivered to the OIC Investors, the Approved Budget.

MergeCo and its subsidiaries are also restricted from amending, waiving or modifying the Business Combination Agreement or any ancillary agreement in a manner that could reasonably be expected to be materially adverse to the OIC Investors without their consent. MergeCo is also required to procure business interruption insurance in a form reasonably satisfactory to the OIC Investors within 90 days of the Initial Closing. MergeCo is also required to use commercially reasonable efforts to enter into certain commercial arrangements.

The OIC Purchase Agreement also contains requirements with respect to future financings. For example, until the earlier of 24 months from the Initial Closing and the date on which all Subsequent Acquired Interests and Reserve Release Acquired Interests have been issued to, and subscribed for by, the OIC Investors, in the event that MergeCo, its subsidiaries, or Carbon Revolution Operations desires to seek any additional financing, the proceeds of which will primarily be used in connection with the direct or indirect funding, construction or development of any future manufacturing facility or material upgrades to its existing mega-line plant operations in Australia, MergeCo shall promptly provide a notice to the OIC Investors regarding the proposed financing and the right to submit an offer and negotiate for a certain period to provide all or a portion of the financing. MergeCo is also required to use best efforts to obtain aggregate gross proceeds of at least $20 million from the issuance and sale of Ordinary Shares to Persons (other than Buyer or its Affiliates) in one or more transactions within twelve months of the Initial Closing date and promptly inform the OIC Investors as to any material communications and developments regarding such financing.

In addition, in the event that at any time in the future MergeCo has insufficient distributable profits to cover the amount of any cash dividend or redemption amount payable on the Preferred Shares, MergeCo is required to take all steps to effect Further Share Capital Reductions, being further reductions of its company capital pursuant

S-5

to sections 84 and 85 of the Irish Companies Act, including (a) the reduction and cancellation of MergeCo’s then un-denominated capital and (b) the capitalization, reduction and cancellation of amounts then standing to the credit of any other un-distributable reserve of MergeCo, such that the resulting reserve will be treated as distributable profits under Irish law.

The terms of the Preferred Shares provide that from the date of the Initial Closing until all the Preferred Shares are redeemed in full, MergeCo shall not (and shall cause its subsidiaries not to) undertake certain “Structured Voting Rights Matters” (as set out in Schedule 1 of the MergeCo Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association) without the prior written consent of the holders of a majority of the Preferred Shares in issue, including, among other things, payment of dividends and share repurchases, issuance of securities senior or pari passu to the Preferred Shares, incurrence of indebtedness other than Permitted Indebtedness (as defined in the MergeCo Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association ), amendment, termination or cancellation of material contracts, material dispositions of assets, change of control transactions, the hiring, termination or amendment of the employment agreements of certain management personnel, expenditures beyond the scope of an agreed-upon budget and capital expenditures above a certain threshold.

The MergeCo Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association further provide that from and after the occurrence of certain triggers, being the failure to effect a mandatory redemption, failure to obtain the required consent of the holders of Preferred Shares in issue before undertaking a Structured Voting Rights Matter, failure to obtain a Share Capital Reduction Order within 60 days of the Initial Closing date, failure to undertake Further Share Capital Reductions in accordance with the OIC Purchase Agreement and failure to abide by the right of first offer requirements in the OIC Purchase Agreement (collectively, the “Springing Rights Events”) until (a) all of the Preferred Shares are redeemed in full or (b) if earlier, in the case of a Springing Rights Event occurring other than from a failure to effect a mandatory redemption of the Preferred Shares, until the non-compliance by MergeCo with the relevant obligations referred to therein giving rise to the Springing Rights Event (x) if capable of rectification, is rectified to the satisfaction of the holders of a majority of the Preferred Shares in issue or (y) is otherwise waived in writing by the holders of a majority of the Preferred Shares in issue, such holders shall be entitled to direct the directors of MergeCo with respect to certain “Springing Rights Matters” (as set out in Schedule 2 of the MergeCo Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association), which include the entrance into, termination of, or amendment to, certain material contracts, determination of operating and capex budgets, actions related to management hiring, termination, and compensation, issuance or redemption of securities, and the initiation or undertaking of a change of control transaction, among other matters.

For so long as the Preferred Shares remain outstanding, the extent of the Structured Voting Rights Matters may constrain the ability of MergeCo’s board of directors and management to operate MergeCo’s business in the manner that it considers to be in the best interests of MergeCo. The interests of the holders of the Preferred Shares may not always be aligned with the interests of MergeCo and holders of MergeCo Ordinary Shares. The OIC Investors may withhold consent to various actions that are in the best interests of MergeCo and holders of MergeCo Ordinary Shares. In addition, the ability of the majority of the holders of the Preferred Shares in issue to direct the directors of MergeCo with respect to the Springing Rights Matters following a Springing Rights Event exercised by the OIC Investors, including strategic decisions and corporate actions, may result in further constraints on the ability of MergeCo’s board of directors and management to operate MergeCo’s business.

The Preferred Shares, together with any MergeCo Ordinary Shares acquired by the OIC Investors upon exercise of the OIC Warrants, limit their share of voting rights to no more than 19.99% of the total MergeCo Ordinary Shares outstanding as of the applicable record date for voting of the MergeCo Ordinary Shares.

OIC Warrants

OIC MergeCo Warrant

The OIC MergeCo Warrant is exercisable for Warrant Shares immediately at an exercise price of $0.01 per share (the “MergeCo Exercise Price”) and expires seven years from the date of issuance. The MergeCo Exercise Price is subject to customary adjustments for stock dividends, stock splits, reclassifications and the like. The OIC MergeCo Warrant may be exercised for cash or may be exercised on a cashless basis. The number of Warrant Shares issuable is equal to, subject to adjustment, the Vested Warrant Percentage (as defined below) multiplied by the number of outstanding Ordinary Shares calculated on a fully-diluted basis. The determination of the

S-6

fully-diluted basis includes (a) all issued MergeCo Ordinary Shares (excluding any Ordinary Shares issued in exchange for TRCA Class A Ordinary Shares in connection with the Business Combination) immediately following the Business Combination, (b) any “Initial Equity Awards”, defined to be equal to up to 5% of total MergeCo Ordinary Shares granted at closing of the Business Combination under MergeCo’s approved equity incentive plan, (c) any additional Ordinary Shares issued (or issuable) under the approved equity incentive plan through the second anniversary of the closing of the Business Combination, (d) any later issuances of Ordinary Shares upon cashless exercise of the Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants, and (e) any other Ordinary Shares issuable upon the exercise or conversion of all other outstanding Equity Interests (as defined in the Warrant) as of the closing of the Business Combination (including the OIC MergeCo Warrant). The calculation of fully-diluted basis for purposes of the OIC MergeCo Warrant expressly excludes Ordinary Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants for cash. “Vested Warrant Percentage” means: (i) 12.49%; plus (ii) upon the OIC Investors’ subscription for the Second Reserve Release securities, 5.00%; plus (iii) upon the earlier of (a) the date on which OIC has funded a Subsequent Closing and (b) the end of 24 months following the Initial Closing date, 2.50%; provided, that, if the OIC Investor fails to fund a Subsequent Closing upon the satisfaction of the conditions thereto then clause (iii) shall be null and void.

The OIC MergeCo Warrant contains restrictions on MergeCo’s ability to raise equity capital in certain circumstances. MergeCo shall obtain the consent of the holders of the OIC MergeCo Warrant prior to (i) issuing Ordinary Shares at a price per share lower than the Maximum Discount (as defined in the OIC MergeCo Warrant); (ii) issuing Ordinary Shares such that the holders of the OIC MergeCo Warrant would be diluted to less than 10% of the aggregate number of outstanding Ordinary Shares calculated on a fully-diluted basis; or (iii) amending the MergeCo Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association in a way that would be materially adverse to the holders of the OIC MergeCo Warrant. In the case of (i) and (ii) above, such consent rights only apply if the holders of the OIC MergeCo Warrant beneficially own at least 10% of the outstanding MergeCo Ordinary Shares, on a fully-diluted basis and assuming the full exercise of the OIC MergeCo Warrant without any reduction for any portion that is unvested or incapable of vesting, at the time of the proposed equity issuance. Additionally, if the OIC Investors fail to fund a Subsequent Closing when all of the conditions precedent thereto other than the approval of the OIC Investors’ own investment committee are satisfied, then such consent rights shall terminate.

OIC Carbon Revolution Warrant

The OIC Carbon Revolution Warrants are exercisable for Carbon Revolution Ordinary Shares immediately at an exercise price of $0.01 per share (the “CR Exercise Price”) and expire upon the earlier of seven years from the date of issuance or upon payment of the Initial Structuring Premium. The CR Exercise Price is subject to customary adjustments for stock dividends, stock splits, reclassifications and similar events. The OIC Carbon Revolution Warrants may be exercised for cash or may be exercised on a cashless basis. Upon MergeCo’s payment of the Initial Structuring Premium, which is required to be paid in the Initial Closing, the OIC Carbon Revolution Warrant shall be cancelled. Accordingly, as long as the Business Combination is consummated and the Initial Closing is funded, the OIC Carbon Revolution Warrants will be cancelled.

Shareholder’s Agreement

In connection with the OIC Purchase Agreement, MergeCo entered into a shareholder’s agreement with the OIC Investors (the “Shareholder’s Agreement”). Pursuant to the Shareholder’s Agreement, the OIC Investors have the right to appoint two directors to the MergeCo board of directors, at the earlier of January 2, 2024 or a Springing Right Event and in accordance with the provisions of the Shareholder’s Agreement and the MergeCo Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association. Beginning with the closing of the Business Combination and until the first date on which (i) OIC MergeCo Warrant has been exercised in full and (ii) the OIC Investors no longer own ordinary shares of the Company or other debt or equity securities in the Company or its subsidiaries that relate to or derive from the Preferred Shares or the OIC MergeCo Warrant, the OIC Investors may also appoint two board observers to attend all MergeCo board of directors meetings in a non-voting, observer capacity, at all times in which the OIC Investors do not have a designee serving on the MergeCo board of directors. The Shareholder’s Agreement also contains customary inspection and consultation rights and information rights that begin with the closing of the Business Combination. The OIC Investors have informed MergeCo that they intend to appoint Chris Leary and Jonathan Magaziner to the MergeCo board of directors in January 2024. The biographies of Mr. Leary and Mr. Magaziner are set forth below.

S-8

Public Shareholders may seek to have their Public Shares redeemed by Twin Ridge, regardless of whether they vote for or against the Business Combination Proposal or any other Shareholder Proposal and whether they held Twin Ridge Ordinary Shares as of August 25, 2023 (the “Record Date”) or acquired them after the Record Date. Any Public Shareholder who holds Twin Ridge Ordinary Shares on or before September 29, 2023 (two business days before the General Meeting) will have the right to demand that his, her or its shares be redeemed for a pro rata share of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, less any taxes then due but not yet paid. For illustrative purposes, based on funds in the Trust Account of approximately $66,682,853 on September 1, 2023 and including anticipated additional interest through the closing of the Business Combination (assuming interest accrues at recent rates and no additional tax payments are made out of the Trust Account), the estimated per share redemption price is expected to be approximately $10.64. A Public Shareholder who has properly tendered his, her or its Public Shares for redemption will be entitled to receive his, her or its pro rata portion of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account in cash for such shares only if the Business Combination is completed. If the Business Combination is not completed, the redemptions will be canceled and the tendered shares will be returned to the relevant Public Shareholders as appropriate.

Public Shareholders who seek to redeem their Public Shares must demand redemption no later than 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on September 29, 2023 (two business days before the General Meeting) by (a) submitting a written request to the Transfer Agent that Twin Ridge redeem such holder’s Public Shares for cash, (b) affirmatively certifying in such request to the Transfer Agent for redemption if such holder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined in Section 13d-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) with any other shareholder with respect to Twin Ridge Ordinary Shares and (c) delivering their Twin Ridge Ordinary Shares, either physically or electronically using DTC’s deposit/withdrawal at custodian system (“DWAC”), at the holder’s option, to the Transfer Agent prior to the General Meeting. If you hold the shares in street name, you will have to coordinate with your broker to have your shares certificated or delivered electronically. Certificates that have not been tendered to the Transfer Agent (either physically or electronically) in accordance with these procedures will not be redeemed for cash. There is a nominal cost associated with this tendering process and the act of certificating the shares or delivering them through the DWAC system. The Transfer Agent will typically charge the tendering broker a nominal fee and it would be up to the broker whether or not to pass this cost on to the redeeming shareholder. In the event the Business Combination is not completed, this may result in an additional cost to shareholders for the return of their shares.

A Public Shareholder who has properly tendered his, her or its Public Shares for redemption will be entitled to receive his, her or its pro rata portion of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account in cash for such shares only if the Business Combination is completed. If the Business Combination is not completed, the redemptions w ill be canceled and the tendered shares will be returned to the relevant Public Shareholders as appropriate.

Revised Disclosure and Supplemental Questions and Answers about the Proposals for Shareholders Disclosure

The introductory paragraph on page 25 is revised to update the General Meeting date:

The questions and answers below highlight only selected information from this document and only briefly address certain commonly asked questions about the proposals to be presented at the General Meeting, including with respect to the proposed Business Combination. The following questions and answers do not include all the information that is important to our shareholders. We urge shareholders to read carefully this entire proxy statement/prospectus, including the Annexes and the other documents referred to herein, to fully understand the proposed Business Combination and the voting procedures for the General Meeting, which will be held at 11:30 a.m., Eastern Time, on October 3, 2023 at the offices of Kirkland & Ellis LLP located at 601 Lexington Avenue, 50^th Floor, New York, New York 10022, and via a virtual meeting, or at such other time, on such other date and at such other place to which the meeting may be adjourned.

The following question and answer on page 26 is revised to update the General Meeting date:

Q.	When and where is the General Meeting?

A.

The General Meeting will be held at 11:30 a.m., Eastern Time, on October 3, 2023, via a virtual meeting, or at such other time, on such other date and at such other place to which the meeting may be adjourned. Only shareholders who held Twin Ridge Ordinary Shares at the close of business on the Record Date will be entitled to vote at the General Meeting.

The following question and answer beginning on page 33 of the section entitled “Questions and Answers about the Proposals for Shareholders” is amended and restated as follows:

Q.	What equity stake will the Public Shareholders and the current shareholders of Carbon Revolution hold in MergeCo immediately after the Closing?

A.

It is anticipated that, upon completion of the Business Combination, and assuming no holders of Public Shares exercise their redemption rights: (i) Public Shareholders will retain an ownership interest of approximately 25.07% of the outstanding MergeCo Ordinary Shares; (ii) the Founder Holders will own approximately 20.00% of the outstanding MergeCo Ordinary Shares; (iii) Carbon Revolution shareholders and Carbon Revolution performance rights holders will own approximately 54.72% of the outstanding MergeCo Ordinary Shares; and (iv) Yorkville Advisors will own approximately 0.06% of the outstanding MergeCo Ordinary Shares (consisting solely of the MergeCo Ordinary Shares issued as a commitment fee and excluding any other shares issuable under the Equity Purchase Agreement from time to time after Closing). These levels of ownership assume (A) that at or after the Closing no MergeCo Warrant or OIC MergeCo Warrant will be exercised and (B) no shares under the Committed Equity Financing have been issued.

If all of the MergeCo Warrants and OIC MergeCo Warrant were exercised and shares under the Committed Equity Financing were issued, (assuming all such shares were issued at a conversion price under the Committed Equity Financing at $9.50 based on an assumed MergeCo share price of $10.00), Public Shareholders would own in aggregate approximately 12.75% of the MergeCo Ordinary Shares on a fully-diluted basis, the Founder Holders would own in aggregate approximately 10.17% of the MergeCo Ordinary Shares on a fully-diluted basis assuming that the Sponsor does not transfer any of the Private Placement Warrants prior to the Closing or MergeCo Founder Warrants at or after the Closing, Carbon Revolution shareholders and Carbon Revolution performance rights holders would own in aggregate approximately 27.90% of the MergeCo Ordinary Shares and Yorkville Advisors would own approximately 0.03% of the MergeCo Ordinary Shares; however, the MergeCo Warrant is subject to restrictions on the timing of their exercise and may also be exercisable on a cashless basis by reference to the fair market value of the MergeCo Ordinary Shares and these percentages are therefore indicative only. Relative voting rights of the MergeCo shareholders will also slightly differ from the indicated ownership percentages because holders of the MergeCo Warrant will only have any voting rights associated therewith following the exercise of such MergeCo Warrant and receipt of the underlying shares with voting rights attached thereto.

S-11

The following question and answer beginning on page 38 of the section entitled “Questions and Answers about the Proposals for Shareholders” is amended and restated as follows:

Q.	What happens if a substantial number of Public Shareholders vote in favor of the Business Combination Proposal and exercise their redemption rights?

A.

The Public Shareholders are not required to vote “FOR” the Business Combination in order to exercise their Redemption Right. Accordingly, the Business Combination may be consummated even though the funds available from the Trust Account and the number of Public Shareholders are reduced as a result of redemptions by Public Shareholders.

If a Public Shareholder exercises its redemption rights, such exercise will not result in the loss of any warrants that it may hold. Regardless of the number of Twin Ridge Ordinary Shares redeemed, each of the retained outstanding Public Warrants (which will be MergeCo Public Warrants following the Closing) would each have a value of approximately $0.0406 per warrant based on the closing price of the Public Warrants on the NYSE on September 1, 2023. If a substantial number of, but not all, Public Shareholders exercise their redemption rights, but choose to exercise their retained warrants, any non-redeeming shareholders would experience dilution to the extent such warrants are exercised and additional MergeCo Ordinary Shares are issued.

The Business Combination Agreement and Scheme Implementation Deed provide that Carbon Revolution’s obligation to consummate the Business Combination is conditioned on, among other things, the MergeCo Net Tangible Assets. The MergeCo Net Tangible Assets requires that at 8:00 a.m. on the Second Court Date, MergeCo and its subsidiaries (in the aggregate) shall be reasonably expected to have, immediately following the Implementation Date and following exercise by Twin Ridge shareholders of their Redemption Rights in accordance with the Existing Organizational Documents, at least $5,000,001 of net tangible assets (as reasonably determined by the Twin Ridge Board in accordance with Rule 3a51-1(g)(1) of the Exchange Act). In addition, in no event will Twin Ridge redeem Twin Ridge Ordinary Shares in an amount that would cause our net tangible assets (as determined in accordance with Rule 3a51-1(g)(1) of the Exchange Act) to be less than $5,000,001. The net tangible assets of MergeCo will include the net tangible assets of Carbon Revolution, as increased by the gross proceeds of the Trust Account and decreased by the transaction expenses, as well as increased by the net proceeds of any equity financing obtained by MergeCo in connection with the closing of the Business Combination. MergeCo expects net tangible assets to exceed $5,000,001 upon closing of the Business Combination even in a Maximum Redemption Scenario. Carbon Revolution has used a portion of the net proceeds of the PIUS Financing to repay existing debt, which has reduced cash and indebtedness, with minimal net impact on net tangible assets.

Additionally, as a result of redemptions, the trading market for MergeCo Ordinary Shares may be less liquid than the market for the Twin Ridge Ordinary Shares prior to the consummation of the Business Combination and we may not be able to meet the listing standards for Nasdaq Global or another national securities exchange.

S-12

The below sensitivity table shows the potential impact of redemptions on the share ownership by non-redeeming shareholders in a no redemption scenario, 25% redemption scenario, 75% redemption scenario, and the maximum redemption scenario. The sensitivity table below also sets forth the potential additional dilutive impact of each of the below additional dilution sources in each redemption scenario. The sensitivity table below excludes the Preferred Shares. The sensitivity table does not show the deferred underwriting commissions incurred in connection with the IPO in each redemption scenario because Barclays and Evercore, the representatives of the underwriters for the IPO, have each agreed to waive the deferred underwriting commissions. The information in the below sensitivity table has been rounded to the nearest whole number or the nearest decimal. Therefore, the sum of the numbers in a column may not conform exactly to the total figure given for that column in the below sensitivity table. In addition, certain percentages presented in the below sensitivity table reflect calculations based upon the underlying information prior to rounding and, accordingly, may not conform exactly to the percentages that would be derived if the relevant calculations were based upon the rounded numbers or may not sum due to rounding.

This scenario assumes that 1,566,661 Twin Ridge Class A Ordinary Shares are redeemed by Twin Ridge shareholders, after taking into account shares redeemed by Twin Ridge shareholders in connection with the Extension Meeting. See “Business of Twin Ridge and Certain Information About Twin Ridge—Extension of Time to Complete a Business Combination” for more information on the Extension Meeting.

See “Business of Twin Ridge and Certain Information About Twin Ridge—Extension of Time to Complete a Business Combination” for more information on the Extension Meeting. The Business Combination Agreement and Scheme Implementation Deed provide that Carbon Revolution’s obligation to consummate the Business Combination is conditioned on, among other things, MergeCo being reasonably expected to have at least $5,000,001 of net tangible assets upon closing of the Business Combination. The net tangible assets of MergeCo will include the net tangible assets of Carbon Revolution, as increased by the gross proceeds of the Trust Account and decreased by the transaction expenses described in the table above, as well as increased by the net proceeds of any equity financing obtained by MergeCo in connection with the closing of the Business Combination. MergeCo expects net tangible assets to exceed $5,000,001 upon closing of the Business Combination even in a Maximum Redemption Scenario.

Consists of performance rights, as of September 1, 2023. Such securities will be cancelled and converted into Carbon Revolution ordinary shares on or prior to the Scheme Record Date. These 76,911 performance rights relate to performance rights currently on issue under Carbon Revolution’s STI plans. All options and performance rights issued under Carbon Revolution’s LTI plans will be cancelled.

(8)

The Equity % with respect to each Additional Dilution Source set forth above, including the Total Additional Dilution Sources, includes the full amount of shares issued with respect to the applicable Additional Dilution Source in the numerator and the full amount of shares issued with respect to the Total Additional Dilution Sources in the denominator, based on the stated assumptions. For example, in the 25% redemption scenario, the Equity % with respect to the MergeCo Warrants would be calculated as follows: (a) 12,210,780 MergeCo Ordinary Shares issued pursuant to the MergeCo Warrants; divided by (b) (i) 23,445,745 MergeCo Ordinary Shares (the number of MergeCo Ordinary Shares outstanding prior to any issuance pursuant to the MergeCo Warrants, OIC MergeCo Warrants or Carbon Revolution Performance Rights) plus (ii) 12,210,780 MergeCo Ordinary Shares issued pursuant to the MergeCo Warrants, 5,586,348 MergeCo Ordinary Shares issued pursuant to the OIC MergeCo Warrants and 6,315,789 pursuant to the Committed Equity Financing assuming conversion at $9.50 (see footnote 9 below). MergeCo intends to grant initial equity incentive awards with respect to a number of MergeCo Ordinary Shares equal to 5% of the number of issued and outstanding MergeCo Ordinary Shares immediately after the closing of the Business Combination (such number of issued and outstanding MergeCo Ordinary Shares, the “Total Shares Outstanding”) promptly following MergeCo’s eligibility to register the issuance of such awards on Form S-8, which is expected to occur 60 days after the closing of the Business Combination. Such awards may take the form of MergeCo Ordinary Shares or other instruments such as options or rights with respect to MergeCo Ordinary Shares. Under the terms of the Scheme Implementation Deed, Carbon Revolution must seek the consent of Twin Ridge (not to be unreasonably withheld) in relation to the form and quantum of any employee or director short-term or long-term incentive or similar arrangements in excess of such 5% limitation. The total number of MergeCo Ordinary Shares reserved for issuance upon grant of equity incentive awards thereafter is expected to equal approximately 8% of the Total Shares Outstanding (for an aggregate of 13% of the Total Shares Outstanding, inclusive of the initial equity incentive awards).

The terms of the OIC MergeCo Warrant provide that the OIC MergeCo Warrant will be exercisable for additional shares if MergeCo Ordinary Shares are issued pursuant to any award made under any equity incentive or similar plan prior to the second anniversary of the closing of the Business Combination. The number of MergeCo Ordinary Shares included pursuant to the OIC MergeCo Warrant assumes the MergeCo Ordinary Shares reserved for issuance upon grant of equity incentive awards that is expected to equal approximately 8% of the Total Shares Outstanding (for an aggregate of 13% of the Total Shares Outstanding, inclusive of the initial equity incentive awards) are issued prior to the second anniversary of the closing of the Business Combination. In the event that less than the amount reserved for issuance is issued prior to the second anniversary of the closing of the Business Combination, the number of shares issuable under the OIC MergeCo Warrant will be lower.

(10)

Represents the issuance of 6,315,789 MergeCo Ordinary Shares pursuant to the Committed Equity Financing, based on the stated assumptions. The terms of the Committed Equity Financing provide for a purchase price equal to 95% or 97% of the volume-weighted average price of MergeCo Ordinary Shares for a specified period, depending upon which specified period is selected. This amount assumes conversion at $9.50, which is the lower of such purchase prices, assuming the volume-weighted average price is equal to the assumed trading price of $10.00 per share the deemed value of MergeCo Ordinary Shares in the Business Combination for determining the number of MergeCo Ordinary Shares issuable to holders of Carbon Revolution Shares and assumes the issuance of all shares issuable pursuant to the terms of the Equity Purchase Agreement. The actual trading price of MergeCo Ordinary Shares may be lower than $10.00, which would result in a lower conversion price for the purpose of the Committed Equity Financing and therefore greater dilution to other MergeCo shareholders.

The first paragraph on page 44 is revised to update the deadline for redemptions:

Public Shareholders may seek to have their shares redeemed regardless of whether they vote for or against the Business Combination, whether or not they were holders of Twin Ridge Class A Ordinary Shares as of the Record Date or acquired their shares after the Record Date. The redemptions will be effectuated in accordance with the Existing Organizational Documents and Cayman Islands law. Any Public Shareholder who holds Twin Ridge Class A Ordinary Shares on or before September 29, 2023 (two Business Days before the General Meeting) will have the right to demand that his, her or its shares be redeemed for a pro rata share of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, less any taxes then due but not yet paid, at the completion of the Business Combination; provided that such Public Shareholders follow the procedures provided for exercising such redemption as set forth in the Existing Organizational Documents, as described below, by such date. However, the proceeds held in the Trust Account could be subject to claims that could take priority over those of Public Shareholders exercising such redemption right, regardless of whether such holders vote for or against the Business Combination Proposal and whether such holders are holders of Twin Ridge Class A Ordinary Shares as of the Record Date. Therefore, the per-share distribution from the Trust Account in such a

S-14

situation may be less than originally anticipated due to such claims. A Public Shareholder will be entitled to receive cash for these shares only if the Business Combination is completed. For more information, see “General Meeting of Twin Ridge’s Shareholders—Redemption Rights”.

The sentence beginning on page 44 is revised to update the deadline for redemptions:

If you are a Public Shareholder and you seek to have your shares redeemed, you must demand redemption no later than 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on September 29, 2023 (two Business Days before the General Meeting) by (a) submitting a written request to the Transfer Agent that Twin Ridge redeem such holder’s Public Shares for cash, (b) affirmatively certifying in such request to the Transfer Agent for redemption if such holder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined in Section 13 d-3 of the Exchange Act) with any other shareholder with respect to Twin Ridge Ordinary Shares and (c) delivering their Twin Ridge Ordinary Shares, either physically or electronically using DTC’s DWAC system, at the holder’s option, to the Transfer Agent prior to the General Meeting.

The last sentence on page 46 is revised to update the deadline for redemptions:

No. Holders of issued and outstanding Twin Ridge Units must elect to separate the Twin Ridge Units into the underlying Public Shares and Public Warrants prior to exercising redemption right with respect to the Public Shares. If you hold your units in an account at a brokerage firm or bank, you must notify your broker or bank that you elect to separate the units into the underlying Public Shares and Public Warrants, or if you hold units registered in your own name, you must contact the Transfer Agent directly and instruct them to do so. The redemption right includes the requirement that a holder must identify itself in writing as a beneficial holder and provide its legal name, phone number and address to the Transfer Agent in order to validly redeem its shares. You are requested to cause your Public Shares to be separated and delivered to the Transfer Agent by 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on September 29, 2023 (two Business Days before the General Meeting) in order to exercise your redemption right with respect to your Public Shares.

Supplemental Risk Factor Disclosure

The last paragraph on page 48 is revised as set forth below:

Further, with respect to the New Debt Program, if the Business Combination is materially delayed (i) and if the Group does not raise additional funds through other sources, the Group may be in default of the liquidity covenant and therefore reliant on Newlight Capital LLC, an affiliate of PIUS and the servicer and collateral agent under the various loan documents (“Servicer”) waiving such default in order to avoid the consequences of a default under the New Debt Program documents; and (ii) the Group would be in breach of the covenant to complete the Business Combination by September 30, 2023, and would have 60 days to cure such breach in order to avoid the consequences of a default under the New Debt Program documents.

The second to last paragraph on page 49 is revised as set forth below:

Under the New Debt Program, if Carbon Revolution does not complete a US$60 million Qualified Capital Raise (as defined in the program documentation), including the issuance of equity or subordinated debt that does not require certain payments until at least 180 days after the repayment of the debt program, by December 31, 2023, then either (i) an additional 5% of the debt amount (US$3 million) or (ii) if no event of default has occurred, $1,500,000 in cash and 500,000 MergeCo Ordinary Shares (unless the Business Combination does not occur by September 30, 2023 and is not cured within 60 days) would be required to be repaid upon the earlier of our refinancing of an outstanding loan or the maturity of the debt. If Carbon Revolution or MergeCo does not complete a US$45 million Qualified Capital Raise, either (i) an additional 5% (being 10% in total and inclusive of the requirement in the preceding sentence) of the debt amount (being US$6 million in total, inclusive of the requirement in the preceding sentence) or (ii) if no event of default has occurred, $1.5 million in cash and 500,000 MergeCo Ordinary Shares reduced by one MergeCo Ordinary Share for every $30 million raised over $45 million (unless the Business Combination does not occur by September 30, 2023 and is not cured within 60 days) is to be repaid over the life of the debt program. Drawdowns under the Committed Equity Financing do not qualify as a Qualified Capital Raise.

The fifth paragraph on page 51 and the first part of the sixth paragraph are revised as set forth below:

Under the New Debt Program, if Carbon Revolution does not complete a US$60 million Qualified Capital Raise (as defined in the program documentation), including the issuance of equity or subordinated debt that does not require certain payments until at least 180 days after the repayment of the debt program, by December 31, 2023, then either (i) an additional 5% of the debt amount (US$3 million) or (ii) if no event of default has occurred, $1,500,000 in cash and 500,000 MergeCo Ordinary Shares (unless the Business Combination does not occur by September 30, 2023 and is not cured within 60 days) would be required to be repaid between January 1, 2024 and the maturity of the debt. If Carbon Revolution or MergeCo does not complete a US$45 million Qualified Capital Raise, either (i) an additional 5% (being 10% in total and inclusive of the requirement in the preceding sentence) of the debt amount (being US$6 million in total, inclusive of the requirement in the preceding sentence) or (ii) if no event of default has occurred, $1.5 million in cash and 500,000 MergeCo Ordinary Shares reduced by one MergeCo Ordinary Share for every $30 million raised over $45 million (unless the Business Combination does not occur by September 30, 2023 and is not cured within 60 days) is to be repaid over the life of the debt program. Drawdowns under the Committed Equity Financing do not qualify as a Qualified Capital Raise. In addition, under the terms of the grant from the Australian Federal Government for MMI, Carbon Revolution is prohibited from granting a security interest and we are required to seek their consent to be able to grant a security interest within 90 days of the New Debt Program. If we fail to obtain consent, we would be in breach of the terms of the New Debt Program.

The New Debt Program documents also provide that the failure to complete the Business Combination by September 30, 2023 would be a breach of the relevant covenant, giving rise to an event of default, subject to a 60-day cure period and contains other customary events of default, including (amongst other things):

The text set forth below is added after the third paragraph on page 50:

There are no assurances as to when the closing conditions for the OIC Financing for the Initial Closing, the Reserve Release Closings or Subsequent Closings will be satisfied or whether the OIC Financing will be consummated at all.

On September 18, 2023, MergeCo entered into the OIC Purchase Agreement with the OIC Investors and Carbon Revolution (for the limited purposes set forth therein), pursuant to which MergeCo agreed to sell (i) up

S-16

to an aggregate of 1,100 Preferred Shares, which are not convertible into MergeCo Ordinary Shares, and (ii) the OIC MergeCo Warrant to acquire the OIC Warrant Shares. However, the Initial Closing, Reserve Release Closings and Subsequent Closings of the OIC Financing and receipt of funding are subject to closing conditions and other impediments to closing, including some that are beyond our control, and we may not be able to close on the terms described herein or at all. Some of the closing conditions to the Initial Closing include, but are not limited to, taking certain steps in connection with obtaining certain consents, MergeCo’s shares having been approved to be listed on the NYSE American or Nasdaq, no material amendment to the Business Combination Agreement shall have occurred and the entry into certain commercial arrangements. For example, in connection with the Initial Closing, we are required to secure deferral agreements with our advisors for our transaction costs and there is no assurance we will be able to secure such deferral agreements. In addition, Subsequent Closings under the OIC Purchase Agreement may take place within twenty-four months following the Initial Closing, with such proceeds to be used for the development, construction, and/or retooling of future manufacturing facilities. The conditions precedent for such Subsequent Closings include MergeCo’s adherence with an Investor-approved budget, delivery of a capex plan to the OIC Investors regarding the use of Subsequent Closing proceeds, the listing of the Ordinary Shares on the NYSE American or Nasdaq, and the approval of the transaction by the OIC Investors’ investment committee in its sole discretion, among other closing requirements. Similarly, the Reserve Release Closings are subject to the satisfaction of certain performance metrics and/or the obtaining of additional financing by Carbon Revolution. There are no assurances that the closing conditions to an Initial Closing, a Reserve Release Closing or a Subsequent Closing under the OIC Purchase Agreement will be satisfied. See above “OIC Financing” for a description of the OIC Financing.

If we are unable to meet the closing conditions for one or more of the Initial Closing, the Reserve Release Closings or Subsequent Closings of the OIC Financing, we may be forced to renegotiate the OIC Financing on less advantageous terms and could fail to consummate the OIC Financing at all. If we are unable to close the OIC Financing, it would significantly alter our business strategy, impede our prospects for growth and we may become illiquid. Further, we may not be able to identify suitable financing to replace the OIC Financing, and even if we were to do so, we may only be able to consummate them on less advantageous terms.

The terms of the OIC Financing impose obligations on us or restrict our ability to engage in some business activities, which could materially adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

The OIC Financing Documents contain obligations and other financial and operating covenants that place restrictions on MergeCo. For example, prior to the Initial Closing, MergeCo is required to operate its business in the ordinary course of business and is restricted from incurring fees, expenses, costs or other liabilities in excess of a budget approved by the Board without the consent of the OIC Investors. In addition, prior to the Initial Closing, MergeCo has agreed to not directly or indirectly solicit or initiate additional interest for a Competing Transaction or participate in discussions or negotiations with another party with respect to a Competing Transaction. Further, MergeCo has provided the OIC Investors a right of first offer for 24 months from the Initial Closing date, has agreed to use best efforts to obtain aggregate gross proceeds of $20 million in one or more transactions by a certain date. From the Initial Closing and until all the Preferred Shares are redeemed in full, the MergeCo board of directors cannot undertake certain matters (i.e., the Structured Voting Rights Matters) without the prior written consent of the holders of a majority of the Preferred Shares then in issue, including, but not limited to, the issuance of securities having rights senior or pari passu to the Preferred Shares, the entry into a material contract, the disposal of assets above a certain amount, undertaking a change of control transaction, senior management changes, the adoption of an operating or capital expenditures budget, incurring general and administrative expenses above amounts set forth in a budget, making capital expenditures above a certain amount or entering into joint ventures. These restrictive covenants reduce our flexibility in conducting our operations, limit our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and industry, and limit our ability to engage in activities that may be in our long-term best interest, including the ability to take advantage of other business opportunities that may arise, any of which could materially adversely affect our growth prospects, future operating results and financial condition.

In the event of certain triggers under our MergeCo Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, holders of Preferred Shares will gain certain governance and control rights.

In connection with the OIC Financing, the MergeCo Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association provide that from and after the occurrence of a Springing Rights Event until (a) all of the Preferred

S-17

Shares are redeemed in full or (b) if earlier, in the case of a Springing Rights Event occurring other than from a failure to effect a mandatory redemption of the Preferred Shares, until the non-compliance by MergeCo with the relevant obligations referred to therein giving rise to the Springing Rights Event (x) if capable of rectification, is rectified to the satisfaction of the holders of a majority of the Preferred Shares in issue or (y) is otherwise waived in writing by the holders of a majority of the Preferred Shares, such holders shall be entitled to direct the directors of MergeCo with respect to certain “Springing Rights Matters” (as set out in Schedule 2 of the MergeCo Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association), which include the entrance into, termination of, or amendment to certain material contracts, determination of operating and capex budgets, actions related to management hiring, termination, and compensation, issuance or redemption of securities, and the initiation or undertaking of a change of control transaction, among other matters. If a Springing Rights Event were to occur, MergeCo’s directors and management may have reduced flexibility in conducting our operations and engaging in activities that they may otherwise consider to be in the best interests of MergeCo, including entering into certain contracts, determining our budgets, actions related to hiring, the issuance and redemption of securities or a change of control transaction, any of which could materially adversely affect our growth prospects, future operating results and financial condition. In addition, in exercising their consent rights in respect of the Structured Voting Rights Matters, the holders of a majority of the Preferred Shares may withhold consent to various actions that the directors of MergeCo may otherwise consider to be in the best interests of MergeCo.

Our ability to raise capital is partially subject to receipt of the consent of the holders of the OIC MergeCo Warrant; if we do not receive such consent from such holders and/or are unable to raise the requisite amount of capital, our financial condition business, operations and growth plans will be adversely affected.

Subject to certain conditions and limitations, the OIC MergeCo Warrant contains restrictions on MergeCo’s ability to raise equity capital in certain circumstances. MergeCo shall obtain the consent of the holders of the OIC MergeCo Warrant prior to (i) issuing Ordinary Shares at a price per share lower than the Maximum Discount of 25%; (ii) issuing Ordinary Shares such that the holders of the OIC MergeCo Warrant would be diluted to less than 10% of the aggregate number of outstanding Ordinary Shares calculated on a fully-diluted basis; or (iii) amending the MergeCo Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association in a way that would be materially adverse to the holders of the OIC MergeCo Warrant. If we do not receive the consent of the OIC MergeCo Warrant holders in the event we try to raise additional equity capital, our business, prospects, financial condition, results of operation and ability to operate will be materially and adversely affected, and we may be required to implement further cost reduction strategies.

The following risk factor beginning on page 98 is amended and restated as follows:

The Public Shareholders will experience immediate dilution as a consequence of the issuance of MergeCo Ordinary Shares as consideration in the Business Combination.

The issuance of additional MergeCo Ordinary Shares in the Business Combination, including the issuance of any MergeCo Ordinary Shares after the Closing of the Business Combination pursuant to the Equity Purchase Agreement, will dilute the equity interests of our existing shareholders and may adversely affect prevailing market prices for the Public Shares and/or Public Warrants. The Public Shareholders who do not redeem their public shares may experience dilution from several additional sources to varying degrees in connection with and after the Business Combination. Additionally, MergeCo following the Closing may determine, subject to the receipt of any shareholder or stock exchange approvals that may be required, to issue additional MergeCo Ordinary Shares or other equity securities of equal or senior rank in connection with privately negotiated transactions following the consummation of the Business Combination.

The issuance of additional MergeCo Ordinary Shares (or other equity securities of equal or senior rank) could have the following effects for holders of Public Shares who elect not to redeem their shares:

•	your proportionate ownership interest in MergeCo following the Closing will decrease;

•	the relative voting strength of each previously outstanding share of MergeCo Ordinary Shares following the Business Combination will be diminished; or

•	the market price of the MergeCo Ordinary Shares and the Public Warrants may decline.

S-18

The below sensitivity table shows the potential impact of redemptions on share ownership by non-redeeming shareholders in a no redemption scenario, 25% redemption scenario, 75% redemption scenario, and the maximum redemption scenario. The sensitivity table below also sets forth the potential additional dilutive impact of each of the below additional dilution sources in each redemption scenario. The sensitivity table below excludes the Preferred Shares. The sensitivity table does not show the deferred underwriting commissions incurred in connection with the IPO in each redemption scenario because Barclays and Evercore, the representatives of the underwriters for the IPO, have each agreed to waive the deferred underwriting commissions. The information in the below sensitivity table has been rounded to the nearest whole number or the nearest decimal. Therefore, the sum of the numbers in a column may not conform exactly to the total figure given for that column in the below sensitivity table. In addition, certain percentages presented in the below sensitivity table reflect calculations based upon the underlying information prior to rounding and, accordingly, may not conform exactly to the percentages that would be derived if the relevant calculations were based upon the rounded numbers or may not sum due to rounding.

This scenario assumes that no Twin Ridge Class A Ordinary Shares are redeemed by Twin Ridge shareholders, after taking into account shares redeemed by Twin Ridge shareholders in connection with the Extension Meeting. See “Business of Twin Ridge and Certain Information About Twin Ridge—Extension of Time to Complete a Business Combination” for more information on the Extension Meeting.

This scenario assumes that 1,566,661 Twin Ridge Class A Ordinary Shares are redeemed by Twin Ridge shareholders, after taking into account shares redeemed by Twin Ridge shareholders in connection with the Extension Meeting. See “Business of Twin Ridge and Certain Information About Twin Ridge—Extension of Time to Complete a Business Combination” for more information on the Extension Meeting.

This scenario assumes that 4,699,984 Twin Ridge Class A Ordinary Shares are redeemed by Twin Ridge shareholders, after taking into account shares redeemed by Twin Ridge shareholders in connection with the Extension Meeting. See “Business of Twin Ridge and Certain Information About Twin Ridge—Extension of Time to Complete a Business Combination” for more information on the Extension Meeting.

(4)

This scenario assumes that 6,266,645 Twin Ridge Class A Ordinary Shares are redeemed by Twin Ridge shareholders, after taking into account shares redeemed by Twin Ridge shareholders in connection with the Extension Meeting after taking into account shares redeemed by Twin Ridge shareholders in connection with the Extension Meeting. The Business Combination Agreement and Scheme Implementation Deed provide that Carbon Revolution’s obligation to consummate the Business Combination is conditioned on, among other things, MergeCo being reasonably expected to have at least $5,000,001 of net tangible assets upon closing of the Business Combination. The net tangible assets of MergeCo will include the net tangible assets of Carbon Revolution, as increased by the gross proceeds of the Trust Account and decreased by the transaction expenses described in the table above, as well as increased by the proceeds of any equity financing obtained by MergeCo in connection with the closing of the Business Combination. MergeCo expects net tangible assets to exceed $5,000,001 upon closing of the Business Combination even in a Maximum Redemption Scenario. See “Business of Twin Ridge and Certain Information About Twin Ridge—Extension of Time to Complete a Business Combination” for more information on the Extension Meeting.

Consists of performance rights, as of September 1, 2023. Such securities will be canceled and converted into Carbon Revolution ordinary shares on or prior to the Scheme Record Date. These 76,911 performance rights relate to performance rights currently on issue under Carbon Revolution’s STI plans. All options and performance rights issued under Carbon Revolution’s LTI plans will be cancelled.

The Equity % with respect to each Additional Dilution Source set forth above, including the Total Additional Dilution Sources, includes the full amount of shares issued with respect to the applicable Additional Dilution Source in the numerator and the full amount of shares issued with respect to the Total Additional Dilution Sources in the denominator, based on the stated assumptions. For example, in the 25% redemption scenario, the Equity % with respect to the MergeCo Warrant would be calculated as follows: (a) 12,210,780 MergeCo Ordinary Shares issued pursuant to the MergeCo Warrant; divided by (b) (i) 23,445,745 MergeCo Ordinary Shares (the number of MergeCo Ordinary Shares outstanding prior to any issuance pursuant to the MergeCo Warrant, OIC MergeCo Warrant or Carbon Revolution Performance Rights) plus (ii) 12,210,780 MergeCo Ordinary Shares issued pursuant to the MergeCo Warrant, 5,586,348 MergeCo Ordinary Shares issued pursuant to the OIC MergeCo Warrant and 6,315,789 pursuant to the Committed Equity Financing assuming conversion at $9.50 (see footnote 9 below). MergeCo intends to grant initial equity incentive awards with respect to a number of MergeCo Ordinary Shares equal to 5% of the number of issued and outstanding MergeCo Ordinary Shares immediately after the closing of the Business Combination (such number of issued and outstanding MergeCo Ordinary Shares, the “Total Shares Outstanding”) promptly following MergeCo’s eligibility to register the issuance of such awards on Form S-8, which is expected to occur 60 days after the closing of the Business Combination. Such awards may take the form of MergeCo Ordinary Shares or other instruments such as options or rights with respect to MergeCo Ordinary Shares. Under the terms of the Scheme Implementation Deed, Carbon Revolution must seek the consent of Twin Ridge (not to be unreasonably withheld) in relation to the form and quantum of any employee or director short-term or long-term incentive or similar arrangements in excess of such 5% limitation. The total number of MergeCo Ordinary Shares reserved for issuance upon grant of equity incentive awards thereafter is expected to equal approximately 8% of the Total Shares Outstanding (for an aggregate of 13% of the Total Shares Outstanding, inclusive of the initial equity incentive awards).

(9)

The terms of the OIC MergeCo Warrant provide that the OIC MergeCo Warrant will be exercisable for additional shares if MergeCo Ordinary Shares are issued pursuant to any award made under any equity incentive or similar plan prior to the second anniversary of the closing of the Business Combination. The number of MergeCo Ordinary Shares included pursuant to the OIC MergeCo Warrant assumes the MergeCo Ordinary Shares reserved for issuance upon grant of equity incentive awards that is expected to equal approximately 8% of the Total Shares Outstanding (for an aggregate of 13% of the Total Shares Outstanding, inclusive of the initial equity incentive awards) are issued prior to the second anniversary of the closing of the Business Combination. In the event that less than the amount reserved for issuance is issued prior to the second anniversary of the closing of the Business Combination, the number of shares issuable under the OIC MergeCo Warrant will be lower.

(10)

Represents the issuance of 6,315,789 MergeCo Ordinary Shares pursuant to the Committed Equity Financing, based on the stated assumptions. The terms of the Committed Equity Financing provide for a purchase price equal to 95% or 97% of the volume-weighted average price of MergeCo Ordinary Shares for a specified period, depending upon which specified period is selected. This amount assumes conversion at $9.50, which is the lower of such purchase prices, assuming the volume-weighted average price is equal to the assumed trading price of $10.00 per share the deemed value of MergeCo Ordinary Shares in the Business Combination for determining the number of MergeCo Ordinary Shares issuable to holders of Carbon Revolution Shares and assumes the issuance of all shares issuable pursuant to the terms of the Equity Purchase Agreement. The actual trading price of MergeCo Ordinary Shares may be lower than $10.00, which would result in a lower conversion price for the purpose of the Committed Equity Financing and therefore greater dilution to other MergeCo shareholders.

The last paragraph on page 109 is revised to update the deadline for redemptions:

A Public Shareholder will be entitled to receive cash for any Public Shares to be redeemed only if such Public Shareholder: (i)(a) holds Public Shares, or (b) if the Public Shareholder holds Public Shares through Twin Ridge Units, the Public Shareholder elects to separate its units into the underlying Public Shares and Public Warrants prior to exercising its Redemption Right with respect to the Public Shares; (ii) submits a written request to the Transfer Agent, in which it (a) requests that Twin Ridge redeem all or a portion of its Public Shares for cash and (b) identifies itself as a beneficial holder of the Public Shares and provides its legal name, phone number and address; and (iii) delivers its share certificates (if any) and other redemption forms to the Transfer Agent, physically or electronically through DTC. Holders must complete the procedures for electing to redeem their Public Shares in the manner described above prior to 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on September 29, 2023 (two Business Days before the initially scheduled vote at the General Meeting) in order for their shares to be redeemed. In order to obtain a physical share certificate, a shareholder’s broker and/or clearing broker, DTC and, the Transfer Agent, will need to act to facilitate this request.

Revised Disclosure to General Meeting Of Twin Ridge’s Shareholders

The first sentence on page 118 is revised to update the General Meeting date:

This proxy statement/prospectus is being provided to Twin Ridge’s shareholders as part of a solicitation of proxies by the Twin Ridge Board for use at the General Meeting of Twin Ridge’s shareholders to be held on October 3, 2023, and at any adjournment or postponement thereof. This proxy statement/prospectus contains important information regarding the General Meeting, the proposals on which you are being asked to vote and information you may find useful in determining how to vote and voting procedures.

Date, Time and Place of General Meeting

The first paragraph on page 118 is revised to update the General Meeting date:

The General Meeting of Twin Ridge’s shareholders will be held on October 3, 2023 at 11:30 a.m., Eastern Time, at the offices of Kirkland & Ellis LLP located at 601 Lexington Avenue, 50th Floor, New York, New York 10022, and via a live webcast at https://www.cstproxy.com/twinridgecapitalac/sm2023, or at such other time, on such other date and at such other place to which the meeting may be adjourned.

Redemption Rights

The second subsection (ii) under the first paragraph on page 120 is revised to update the deadline for redemptions:

(ii). prior to 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on September 29, 2023, (a) submit a written request to the Transfer Agent in which you (i) request that Twin Ridge redeem all or a portion of your Public Shares for cash, and (ii) identify yourself as the beneficial holder of the Public Shares and provide your legal name, phone number and address; and (b) deliver your Public Shares to Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, Twin Ridge’s transfer agent, physically or electronically through DTC.

The second paragraph under the section on page 120 is revised to update the deadline for redemptions:

Public Shareholders may seek to have their Public Shares redeemed by Twin Ridge, regardless of whether they vote for or against the Business Combination Proposal or any other Shareholder Proposal and whether they held Public Shares as of the Record Date or acquired them after the Record Date. Any Public Shareholder who holds Twin Ridge Ordinary Shares on or before September 29, 2023 (two Business Days before the General Meeting) will have the right to demand that his, her or its shares be redeemed for a pro rata share of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, less any taxes then due but not yet paid. For illustrative purposes, based on funds in the Trust Account of approximately $66,682,853 on September 1, 2023 and including anticipated additional interest through the closing of the Business Combination (assuming interest accrues at recent rates and no additional tax payments are made out of the Trust Account), the estimated per share redemption price is expected to be approximately $10.64. A Public Shareholder who has properly tendered his, her or its Public Shares for redemption will be entitled to receive his, her or its pro rata portion of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account in cash for such shares only if the Business Combination is completed. If the Business Combination is not completed, the redemptions will be canceled and the tendered shares will be returned to the relevant Public Shareholders as appropriate.

The last paragraph on page 120 is revised to update the deadline for redemptions:

Public Shareholders who seek to redeem their Public Shares must demand redemption no later than 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on September 29, 2023 (two Business Days before the General Meeting) by (a) submitting a written request to the Transfer Agent that Twin Ridge redeem such holder’s Public Shares for cash, (b) affirmatively certifying in such request…

Supplemental Business Combination Agreement, Scheme Implementation Deed and Ancillary Documents Disclosure

The following paragraph is to be added in the section entitled “The Business Combination Agreement, Scheme Implementation Deed and Ancillary Documents” after the first paragraph on page 139 as follows:

On September 21, 2023, we amended the Scheme Implementation Deed following the execution of the OIC Financing (the “Scheme Implementation Amendment”). Under the terms of the Scheme Implementation

S-21

Amendment, the parties agreed to revise the merger ratio from 0.0877 MergeCo Ordinary shares per Carbon Revolution share to between 0.0640 and 0.0643 MergeCo Ordinary Shares per Carbon Revolution share (depending on the redemption rate of Twin Ridge’s Class A Ordinary Shares), subject to obtaining a necessary order of the Federal Court of Australia and any alterations or conditions made or required by the court. In addition, the End Date was amended to be November 30, 2023 and the parties consented to the OIC Financing described above and the entry into fee deferral arrangements with various advisors and other vendors to Carbon Revolution, MergeCo and Twin Ridge with respect to certain transaction expenses.

The following paragraph in the section entitled “The Business Combination Agreement, Scheme Implementation Deed and Ancillary Documents” on page 146 is amended and restated as follows:

Amendment and Restatement of Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information

The text beginning on page 191 entitled “Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information” is amended and restated as set forth below:

Introduction

MergeCo is providing the following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information to aid you in your analysis of the financial aspects of the Business Combination.

S-22

MergeCo was formed on July 5, 2017 as a private limited liability company incorporated in Ireland under the name “Poppetell Limited” and changed its name on December 6, 2022 to “Carbon Revolution Limited” for the purpose of effecting the Business Combination described herein. MergeCo was re-registered as a public limited company on May 29, 2023, upon which its name changed to “Carbon Revolution Public Limited Company”. MergeCo, as a shell company, has no assets and liabilities and does not operate any business. Accordingly, no financial statements of MergeCo have been included in this proxy statement/prospectus.

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information presents the historical financial statements of Carbon Revolution Limited, a company incorporated in Australia (“Carbon Revolution”) and Twin Ridge Capital Acquisition Corp., an exempted company incorporated in the Cayman Islands (“Twin Ridge”), adjusted to give effect to the transactions that were entered into in contemplation of, or that are contemplated by, the Scheme Implementation Deed and the Business Combination Agreement (the “Pro Forma Transactions”).

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information comprises:

•	A condensed combined statement of financial position as of December 31, 2022 assuming the transaction was consummated on that date; and

•	A condensed combined statement of comprehensive income for the year ended June 30, 2022 and six months ended December 31, 2022 assuming the transaction was consummated as of July 1, 2021, at the commencement of the earliest period presented.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information gives effect to the following:

•	The exchange of shares between MergeCo, Carbon Revolution and Twin Ridge as a result of the Scheme Implementation Deed and the Business Combination Agreement and associated transaction costs; and

•	The issuance of shares as a commitment fee as consideration for the CEF (as defined below) upon completion of the Business Combination; and

•	The issuance of preferred shares and warrants pursuant to the OIC securities purchase agreement that is effective on completion of the Business Combination and receipt of the proceeds therefrom; and

•	The partial deferral of Twin Ridge transaction costs on completion of the Business Combination.

The PIUS Financing entered into by Carbon Revolution Limited in May 2023, as amended, provides it with $60 million USD of borrowings to be repaid over 4 years. The financing terms require consummation of the Business Combination by September 30, 2023. If not achieved, then Carbon Revolution would be in breach thereof within 60 days. The financing terms require consummation of the Business Combination by September 30, 2023. If not achieved, then any breach may be cured within 60 days.

The three-year committed equity facility (“CEF”) entered into by MergeCo allows it to issue shares in the future at its discretion (subject to the terms of the Equity Purchase Agreement). Such issuances are not reflected in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information because the consummation of the Business Combination is not conditioned on future issuances under the CEF. Pursuant to the terms of the CEF, MergeCo is not required to issue a minimum number of shares and the counterparty to the CEF, Yorkville Advisors, is not required to purchase additional shares under the CEF beyond the CEF Ownership Restriction, or US$10 million (A$15.0 million) per Advance Notice (as defined in the Equity Purchase Agreement), whichever is lower, which means MergeCo may not have full access to the stated $60 million of capital. The obligations of the investor to purchase shares pursuant to the CEF are also subject to certain conditions, which MergeCo may be unable to satisfy. Issuances of shares under the CEF may, however, have a material impact on MergeCo’s financial position in future periods if MergeCo issues and sells additional shares under the CEF following the Closing. MergeCo’s financial position and results of operations may also be impacted if it issues and sells additional shares or incurs additional indebtedness in connection with any other financing transaction that it may enter into or consummate prior to or concurrently with the Business Combination.

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of financial position as of December 31, 2022 assumes that the Pro Forma Transactions occurred on December 31, 2022. The unaudited pro forma

S-23

condensed combined statement of comprehensive income for the year ended June 30, 2022 and for the six months ended December 31, 2022 presents the pro forma effect of the Pro Forma Transactions for the combined company as if the Business Combination had been completed on July 1, 2021.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been presented for illustrative purposes only and does not necessarily reflect what the combined company’s financial condition or results of operations would have been if the Pro Forma Transactions occurred on the dates indicated. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information also may not be useful in predicting the future financial condition and results of operations of the combined company. The actual financial position and results of operations may differ significantly from the pro forma amounts reflected herein due to a variety of factors.

The pro forma adjustments reflected in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information are based on information currently available, assumptions, and estimates underlying the pro forma adjustments and are described in the accompanying notes. Actual results may differ materially from the assumptions used to present the accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information.

This unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information was derived from, and should be read in conjunction with;

•	Carbon Revolution’s unaudited financial statements as of and for the six months ended December 31, 2022 and the related notes thereto, included elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus;

•	Carbon Revolution’s audited financial statements as of and for the year ended June 30, 2022 and the related notes thereto, included elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus;

•

Twin Ridge’s audited financial statements as of December 31, 2021 and the period from January 7, 2021 (inception) through December 31, 2021, the audited financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2022, included elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus and the unaudited interim financial statements as of June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021 (as restated) and for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and for the period from January 7, 2021 (inception) through June 30, 2021 and the related notes thereto and the unaudited interim financial statements as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2022 (audited) and for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2022 (audited) and the related notes thereto. The income statement of Twin Ridge for the year ended June 30, 2022 and the six months ended December 31, 2022 for pro forma purposes has been arithmetically derived from these financial statements – refer also to Note 2 to the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information; and

•	the sections titled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of Carbon Revolution” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of Twin Ridge” and other financial information.

Anticipated Accounting Treatment

The Business Combination will be accounted for as a capital reorganization. Under this method of accounting, MergeCo will be treated as the “acquired” company for financial reporting purposes. Accordingly, the Business Combination will be treated as the equivalent of Carbon Revolution issuing shares at the closing for the net assets of MergeCo (including the net assets of Twin Ridge) as of the closing date, accompanied by a recapitalization as Carbon Revolution will not be the legal acquiror. The net assets of MergeCo will be stated at historical cost, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded in accordance with IFRS. This is expected to be consistent with carrying value. Carbon Revolution will, consequently, be deemed the accounting predecessor meaning that Carbon Revolution’s consolidated assets, liabilities and results of operations will become the historical financial statements of MergeCo.

Carbon Revolution has determined that it will be the accounting acquirer (notwithstanding it is legally acquired by MergeCo) based on evaluation of the following facts and circumstances:

•

Carbon Revolution’s existing shareholders will have the greatest voting interest in the combined entity under both the 75% Redemption and Maximum Redemption (both terms, as defined below) scenarios. Further, even in the instance of No Redemptions, Twin Ridge shareholders would not have a substantial majority of the voting interests, being approximately 32% and board and management representation are considered further below;

S-24

•	Carbon Revolution’s directors will represent the majority of the board of directors of the combined company following the consummation of the Business Combination;

•	Carbon Revolution’s senior management will be the senior management of the combined company following the consummation of the Business Combination as disclosed elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus. Of the disclosed executive officers, all of them are current Carbon Revolution employees;

•	Carbon Revolution is the larger entity based on historical operating activity and its employee base; and

•	MergeCo will continue to operate under the Carbon Revolution trade name and the combined entity’s headquarters will be based in Australia with its corporate head office in Geelong, consistent with the current location of Carbon Revolution’s head office.

Other factors were considered, including the purpose and intent of the Business Combination, noting that the preponderance of evidence as described above is indicative that Carbon Revolution is the accounting acquirer in the Business Combination.

The Business Combination, which is not within the scope of IFRS 3 since Twin Ridge does not meet the definition of a business in accordance with IFRS 3, is accounted for within the scope of IFRS 2.

The fair value of MergeCo Ordinary Shares is derived from a recent observable trading price for the underlying Carbon Revolution shares prior to the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, not the $10.00 value per share articulated in the Business Combination Agreement. As of September 22, 2023, that share price was A$0.12.

No gain or loss is recognized in profit and loss where the value of the net assets of Twin Ridge acquired exceeds the fair value of MergeCo Ordinary Shares issued to the Twin Ridge shareholders. Any difference is recognized in equity. In the 100% redemption scenario, the excess of fair value of MergeCo Ordinary Shares issued to the holders of Twin Ridge Class A Ordinary Shares over the fair value of Twin Ridge’s identifiable net assets is expensed as incurred as required by IFRS 2.

Pro Forma Presentation

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared based on the four scenarios described below. Each of the scenarios is based on the 6.3 million Twin Ridge Class A Ordinary Shares outstanding (or 29.4% of the Twin Ridge Class A Ordinary Shares issued in Twin Ridge’s initial public offering), the holders of which did not exercise their redemption rights in connection with the Extension Meeting:

•	Assuming No Redemptions: This presentation assumes that no further Twin Ridge shareholders exercise redemption rights with respect to their Twin Ridge Class A Ordinary Shares (the “No Redemption”).

•

Assuming 25% Redemptions: This presentation assumes that Twin Ridge shareholders holding 1,566,661 Twin Ridge Class A Ordinary Shares will exercise their redemption rights for approximately A$23.4 million at a redemption price of approximately $10.14 per share-based on the investment held in the Trust Account as of December 31, 2022, which represents 25% of Twin Ridge Class A Ordinary Shares that could be redeemed by Twin Ridge shareholders, after giving effect to exercise of redemption rights by such Twin Ridge shareholders and payments thereto in such redemption (the “25% Redemption”).

•

Assuming 75% Redemptions: This presentation assumes that Twin Ridge shareholders holding 4,699,984 Twin Ridge Class A Ordinary Shares will exercise their redemption rights for approximately A$70.3 million at a redemption price of approximately $10.14 per share-based on the investment held in the Trust Account as of December 31, 2022, which represents 75% of Twin Ridge Class A Ordinary Shares that could be redeemed by Twin Ridge shareholders, after giving effect to exercise of redemption rights by such Twin Ridge shareholders and payments thereto in such redemption (the “75% Redemption”).

•	Assuming Maximum Redemptions: This presentation assumes that Twin Ridge shareholders holding 6,266,645 Twin Ridge Class A Ordinary Shares will exercise their redemption rights for approximately A$93.8 million at a redemption price of approximately $10.14 per share-based on the investment held

S-25

in the Trust Account as of December 31, 2022, which represents 100% of Twin Ridge Class A Ordinary Shares that could be redeemed by Twin Ridge shareholders, after giving effect to exercise of redemption rights by such Twin Ridge shareholders and payments thereto in such redemption (the “Maximum Redemption”). The Maximum Redemption scenario assumes that MergeCo has at least $5,000,001 of net tangible assets upon closing of the Business Combination. The satisfaction of this minimum net tangible asset requirement is a condition precedent to Carbon Revolution’s and Twin Ridge’s obligations under the Scheme Implementation Deed. In this scenario, MergeCo would only recognize the issuance of 5,000,000 MergeCo Ordinary Shares to the holders of the Twin Ridge Class B Ordinary Shares. The net tangible assets of MergeCo will include the net tangible assets of Carbon Revolution, as increased by the gross proceeds of the Trust Account and decreased by the transaction expenses, as well as increased by the net proceeds of any equity financing obtained by MergeCo in connection with the closing of the Business Combination. MergeCo expects net tangible assets to exceed $5,000,001 upon closing of the Business Combination even in a Maximum Redemption Scenario.

These scenarios are for illustrative purposes only, as the actual amount of redemptions by Twin Ridge’s shareholders is unknowable prior to the Twin Ridge shareholder vote with respect to the Business Combination. All scenarios include a pro forma adjustment for the redemption of the 70.6% of shareholders who exercised their redemption rights in connection with the Extension Meeting. The actual financial position and results of operations of the combined company may differ significantly from the pro forma amounts presented.

S-26

Description of the Transactions

Business Combination

On November 29, 2022, Carbon Revolution entered into the Scheme Implementation Deed and the Business Combination Agreement with Twin Ridge and MergeCo. Pursuant to the agreements, Twin Ridge will merge with and into a wholly-owned subsidiary of MergeCo and the wholly-owned subsidiary of MergeCo shall continue as the surviving corporation of the merger. Immediately thereafter MergeCo will issue shares to Carbon Revolution shareholders (collectively, the “Business Combination”). Upon completion of the Business Combination, eligible Carbon Revolution shareholders will receive MergeCo Ordinary Shares and existing Twin Ridge Shareholders will receive MergeCo Ordinary Shares in exchange for their existing Twin Ridge Ordinary Shares. Existing Twin Ridge warrant holders will have their Warrants automatically exchanged for MergeCo Warrants, subject to substantially the same terms and conditions, including to become exercisable in respect of MergeCo Ordinary Shares instead of Twin Ridge Ordinary Shares, subject to the terms of the Business Combination Agreement.

After completion of the Transactions, MergeCo will be the parent of a wholly-owned group including both Carbon Revolution and Twin Ridge (the “Group”). This will happen through an exchange, and registration via Form F-4, of MergeCo Ordinary Shares. Similarly, existing outstanding Warrants will be automatically exchanged by assumption by MergeCo of the obligations under the Warrants, including to become exercisable in respect of MergeCo Ordinary Shares instead of Twin Ridge Ordinary Shares. Such MergeCo Warrants will be subject to substantially the same terms and conditions as existing Warrants.

MergeCo will be listed on Nasdaq and, assuming at least some level of redemptions, it is anticipated that the current shareholders of Carbon Revolution will hold the majority of the MergeCo Ordinary Shares.

Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement and immediately prior to the Twin Ridge Merger Effective Time:

•	Each Twin Ridge Class B Ordinary Share, shall convert automatically, on a one-for-one basis, into a Twin Ridge Class A Ordinary Share;

•	Immediately after the Pre-Merger Conversion, each Twin Ridge Class A Ordinary Share shall be automatically cancelled in exchange for one validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable MergeCo Ordinary Share;

•

Each Public Warrant shall be automatically exchanged to become one MergeCo Public Warrant. Each such MergeCo Public Warrant will be subject to substantially the same terms and conditions set forth in the Existing Warrant Agreement, pursuant to which such Twin Ridge Public Warrant was issued immediately prior to the Twin Ridge Merger Effective Time; and

•

Each Private Placement Warrant shall be automatically exchanged to become one MergeCo Public Warrant (each, a “MergeCo Founder Warrant”). Each such MergeCo Founder Warrant will be subject to substantially the same terms and conditions set forth in the Existing Warrant Agreement pursuant to which such Twin Ridge Private Warrant was issued immediately prior to the Twin Ridge Merger Effective Time.

CEF

Twin Ridge entered into the Equity Purchase Agreement with Yorkville Advisors with respect to the potential future issuance of up to $60 million in MergeCo Ordinary Shares, at MergeCo’s election. Under the terms of the CEF:

•

For a period of three years from closing, MergeCo has the right to require Yorkville Advisors to purchase new MergeCo Ordinary Shares in a series of advances, with each advance being in an amount up to the greater of (i) $10 million or (ii) the aggregate trading volume of MergeCo Ordinary Shares for the five trading days immediately preceding MergeCo requesting an advance. MergeCo is not obliged to require Yorkville Advisors to purchase a minimum volume of MergeCo Ordinary Shares.

S-27

•	MergeCo can choose one of two Purchase Price Options:

○

Purchase Price Option 1: Yorkville Advisors will purchase MergeCo Ordinary Shares at a price equal to 95.0% of the average VWAP during the day on which the advance request was made. If the volume threshold under an advance is not reached during the pricing period, the number of shares purchased will be reduced to the greater of (i) 35.0% of the trading volume during the pricing period, or (ii) the number of shares sold by the Yorkville Advisors during the pricing period. The volume threshold is the amount of the advance in shares divided by 35.0%.

○

Purchase Price Option 2: Yorkville Advisors will purchase MergeCo Ordinary Shares at a price equal to 97.0% of the lowest VWAP of the MergeCo Ordinary Shares during the pricing period of three consecutive trading days commencing on the trading day commencing after the advance notice is received by Yorkville Advisors.

•

During either pricing period, Yorkville Advisors will have the ability to hedge its position by short selling in full the quantum of shares that it is required to purchase under any advance notice. Under Purchase Price Option 2, MergeCo will have the ability to notify Yorkville Advisors of the minimum acceptable price (“MAP”) at which it can sell the new shares. If MergeCo does not set a MAP, this may have a material and adverse impact on MergeCo’s share price depending on the quantum of shares being sold relative to overall liquidity of MergeCo’s shares.

•

Yorkville Advisors cannot be issued MergeCo Ordinary Shares in an amount that would result in it holding more than the CEF Ownership Restriction at any one time. In the circumstance where Yorkville Advisors is unable to dispose of its MergeCo Ordinary Shares on an ongoing basis, it will not be required to purchase additional shares under the CEF beyond the CEF Ownership Restriction, which means MergeCo may not have full access to the stated $60 million CEF capital. Carbon Revolution determined that the CEF right to issue shares represents a purchased put option which is classified as a derivative asset with a de minimus fair value at inception.

•	MergeCo has agreed to issue 15,000 MergeCo Ordinary Shares to Yorkville Advisors as a ‘commitment fee’ to secure the facility. These must be issued upon completion of the Business Combination.

OIC Financing

On September 21, 2023, MergeCo entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement pursuant to which MergeCo agreed to sell preferred shares and issue warrants immediately following consummation of the Business Combination. The investment is staged in multiple tranches being (i) $35 million funded by the OIC Investors at the initial closing and immediately available by MergeCo, (ii) $35 million funded by the OIC Investors into an escrow account, subject to release to MergeCo at one or more reserve release closings upon satisfaction of certain conditions described as set out in the supplement to this prospectus dated September 25, 2023, and (iii) up to $40 million to be funded by the OIC Investors at one or more subsequent closings upon notice to the OIC Investors and satisfaction of certain conditions.

PIUS Financing

In May 2023, Carbon Revolution Limited entered into a 4 year financing arrangement for $60 million. On September 18, 2023, Carbon Revolution and the parties to the financing arrangement entered into an amendment to revise the minimum available cash requirement and the deadline for the Business Combination to be completed. As amended, the financing terms require consummation of the Business Combination by September 30, 2023. If not achieved, then Carbon Revolution would be in breach thereof. A sixty (60) day cure period applies. Accordingly, the net effect of the financing has been presented in the pro forma financial information. This includes the cash proceeds received, transaction and financing costs incurred, the repayment of existing payables out of the financing proceeds and the borrowing obligation incurred. The effect of the financing has been presented in the pro forma balance sheet as if the financing was entered into on December 31, 2022. For pro forma statement of operations purposes, the presentation has been prepared as if the financing was entered into on July 1, 2021, concurrent with the pro forma presentation of the Business Combination.

Pro Forma Ownership

The following table summarizes the unaudited pro forma ownership of MergeCo Ordinary Shares that would have been outstanding as of December 31, 2022, after giving effect to redemptions in connection with the Extension Meeting and the Pro Forma Transactions, under each of the no redemption, 25% redemption, 75% redemption and maximum redemption scenarios. The information presented in table below includes only shares that are deemed legally outstanding for purposes of calculating pro forma diluted earnings per share and accordingly is not consistent with information elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus, including under the caption “Questions and Answers About the Proposals for Shareholders—Q: What equity stake will the Public Shareholders and the current shareholders of Carbon Revolution hold in MergeCo immediately after the Closing?” (which includes all shares that will be deemed outstanding under Irish law upon the consummation of the Business Combination).

(1)

The Twin Ridge Class A Ordinary Shares held by the current Twin Ridge shareholders as at December 31, 2022 less the number of Twin Ridge Class A Ordinary Shares redeemed in connection with the Extension Meeting (70.6%) is used for the purpose of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet and unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations as shown below.

(2)	Includes, in all scenarios, the Founder Shares to be converted into 5,000,000 MergeCo Ordinary Shares as part of the Pro Forma Transaction.

(3)

Carbon Revolution shareholders shares are based upon anticipated total share consideration to owners of equity interests in Carbon Revolution equal to 13,638,284 MergeCo Ordinary Shares (reflecting an equity value of $136,382,845, divided by $10.00 per share), with 13,638,284 MergeCo Ordinary Shares issuable to holders of Carbon Revolution shares. Additional dilution will occur when performance rights or options are issued to employees post completion of the Business Combination. As disclosed in “The Business Combination Agreement, Scheme Implementation Deed and Ancillary Documents—Other Agreements Related to the Business Combination—2023 Incentive Equity Plan”, prior to the effectiveness of the registration statement, the MergeCo board and MergeCo’s shareholders will approve and adopt the Carbon Revolution Company FY2023 Incentive Equity Plan (the “FY2023 Incentive Equity Plan”) which will reserve for grant a number of MergeCo Ordinary Shares or other forms of equity in MergeCo. Such grants may include both one-off retention grants, and business-as-usual grants in respect of FY2023. MergeCo intends to grant initial equity incentive awards with respect to a number of MergeCo Ordinary Shares equal to 5% of the Total Shares Outstanding promptly following MergeCo’s eligibility to register the issuance of such awards on Form S-8, which is expected to occur 60 days after the closing of the Business Combination. Such awards may take the form of MergeCo Ordinary Shares or other instruments such as options or rights with respect to MergeCo Ordinary Shares. Under the terms of the Scheme Implementation Deed, Carbon Revolution must seek the consent of Twin Ridge (not to be unreasonably withheld) in relation to the form and quantum of any employee or director short-term or long-term incentive or similar arrangements in excess of such 5% limitation. The total number of MergeCo Ordinary Shares reserved for issuance upon grant of equity incentive awards thereafter is expected to equal 8% of the Total Shares Outstanding (for an aggregate of 13% of the Total Shares Outstanding, inclusive of the initial equity incentive awards). Shares or other equities issued under the 2023 Equity Incentive Plan are not included in the table above and would result in an increase of the number of equities on issue which would be dilutive to existing shares. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information

S-29

presented has not been adjusted to reflect such potential equity awards, as such awards will not be made until at least 60 days after the closing of the Business Combination and the amount, valuation and other terms and conditions thereof have not been determined and cannot, therefore, be quantified. The amount of any compensation charge incurred upon the grant of any such equity awards may be material.

(4)

These 76,911 MergeCo Ordinary Shares that will be issued on or before the Scheme Record Date upon the cancellation of performance rights relate only to performance rights issued under Carbon Revolution’s STI plans and do not include any number in relation to options and performance rights issued under Carbon Revolution’s LTI plans which will be canceled and not convertible to Carbon Revolution Shares.

(5)	Includes, in all scenarios, the commitment fee of 15,000 MergeCo Ordinary Shares to Yorkville Advisors irrespective of subsequent drawdown.

Amended Disclosure Regarding Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Financial Information

Note 3 and Note 4 are amended and restated as follows:

3.	Adjustments to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared to illustrate the effect of the Pro Forma Transactions under IFRS and has been prepared for informational purposes only. The adjustments presented in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information are intended to present relevant information necessary to understand Carbon Revolution’s financial position and results of operations upon the consummation of the Pro Forma Transactions.

The Business Combination is not within the scope of IFRS 3 as Twin Ridge does not meet the definition of a business in accordance with IFRS 3. Nevertheless, the principles of IFRS 3 were applied to identify the accounting acquirer in the Business Combination, and it was concluded that Carbon Revolution is the accounting acquirer.

The adjustments included in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheets as of December 31, 2022 are as follows:

•	(a) Reflects the U.S. GAAP to IFRS conversion adjustment related to the reclassification of Twin Ridge’s historical mezzanine equity (Twin Ridge Class A Ordinary Shares subject to possible redemption) into Non-current Liabilities (Borrowings).

•

(b) Reflects the award of Founder Shares measured at fair value of A$34.6 million in accumulated losses representing an IFRS 2 charge for the Twin Ridge Class B Ordinary Shares awarded to the Sponsor in Q1, 2021. IFRS 2 requires that where an issuance of shares is made for less than fair value, an IFRS 2 expense is recognized for any unidentifiable services provided at the value of the difference. The adjustment represents the value of the difference between the aggregate consideration paid and the aggregate value of B shares issued with reference to the $5.01 fair value of the Founder Shares as determined by the concurrent award of Class B shares to the directors of Twin Ridge described below. As the award did not contain any performance or forfeiture conditions, nor any variability based on the outcome of a subsequent business combination, the IFRS 2 charge is recognized at the date of issuance of the shares being for services deemed to be provided by the Sponsor up to that date. As this took place prior to July 1, 2021 no corresponding pro forma compensation charge is recognized in the pro forma statement of operations for the twelve months ended June 30, 2022. US GAAP does not contain a similar prescriptive requirement regarding unidentifiable services.

Additionally, in February 2021, the Sponsor transferred 60,000 Class B shares in the aggregate to three Twin Ridge directors. Per share consideration was equal to the amount paid by the Sponsor to Twin Ridge for each Sponsor Share. The award is contingent on the successful completion of a business combination and an IFRS 2 charge has been recognized as a pro forma adjustment accordingly for the fair value of the shares determined at grant date. IFRS 2 charge of A$444,000 is reflected in adjustment (1H).

The pro forma adjustments also include the effect of a transaction between the Sponsors and other advisors whereby the Sponsor agreed to the transfer of 3,350,000 existing Class B shares upon completion of a successful business combination. The Company was not party to this agreement and no incremental Class B shares will be issued. However, the scope of IFRS 2 requires that a compensation expense be recognized in Twin Ridge’s statement of operations if Twin Ridge’s shareholders are party to an arrangement for the award of shares in consideration for services provided to Twin Ridge that are fulfilled by the shareholders. Specifically, IFRS 2 requires a compensation charge to be recognized, notwithstanding that Twin Ridge is not a party to the arrangement, nor that any new shares will be issued by Twin Ridge as a result of the arrangement. As Twin Ridge will be the beneficiary of any successful business combination, a pro forma compensation expense and associated non-share capital contribution is recognized for the $16.4 million fair value of Twin Ridge Class B Ordinary Shares to be awarded to advisors on completion of the Business Combination. Accordingly, an IFRS 2 charge of A$24.2 million is reflected in adjustment (1C.1).

•	(c) As reflected in the pro forma C and D series of adjustments below, transaction costs that are not direct and incremental to the issuance of new shares for consideration are expensed as a pro forma adjustment.

S-35

These include consulting fees, Australian legal counsel fees in relation to existing Carbon Revolution shareholders and the Twin Ridge time extension fee. For direct and incremental transaction costs such as US counsel fees and other costs relating to preparation of the registration statement, a further allocation has been made as required by IAS32. This allocation is based on the proportionate number of shares issued to existing Carbon Revolution shareholders and shares issued to Twin Ridge shareholders. Only the fractional proportion relating to Twin Ridge shareholders is recognized in equity in each redemption scenario. Transaction costs considered for capitalization are limited to the maximum amount that does not exceed the capital raised under each scenario.

Excluding share-based compensation expense, the treatment of transaction costs incurred by Carbon Revolution in the unaudited condensed combined pro forma information may be summarized as follows:

Costs	No redemption scenario	25% redemption scenario	75% redemption scenario	Maximum redemption scenario
Fraction of Carbon transaction costs capitalized based on proportionate shares issued to Twin Ridge shareholders. These predominantly comprise US counsel and other direct and incremental advisory fees related to the transaction and preparation of the associated registration statement as at December 31, 2022.	8,634	7,927	6,187	—
Fraction of Carbon transaction costs expensed based on proportionate share and other costs not direct and incremental to the transaction. These other costs include Australian legal counsel, advisory fees relating to the structure of MergeCo, taxation advice and insurances recognized in accumulated losses at December 31, 2022.	27,076	27,783	29,522	35,710

•	(d) Reflects the U.S. GAAP to IFRS conversion adjustment related to the reclassification of Twin Ridge’s change in fair value of warrant liability and fair value of commitment fees shares into finance expenses (Borrowings).

•

(1A) Reflects the recognition and reclassification of approximately AUD equivalent $318.9 million of cash and marketable securities held in the Trust Account as of December 31, 2022 to cash and cash equivalents that becomes available for general use by MergeCo following the closing of the Business Combination. It also reflects the issuance of MergeCo Ordinary Shares in exchange for Twin Ridge Class A Ordinary Shares currently classified in borrowings.

•	(1A.1) Represents the impact to cash of a 25% redemption scenario in which 1,566,661 shares of Twin Ridge Class A Ordinary Shares are redeemed for A$23.4 million allocated to common stock, using a par value of $0.0001 per share at a redemption price of $10.14 per share.

•	(1A.2) Represents the impact to cash of a 75% redemption scenario in which 4,699,984 shares of Twin Ridge Class A Ordinary Shares are redeemed for A$70.3 million allocated to common stock, using a par value of AUD0.0001 per share at a redemption price of $10.14 per share.

•

(1A.3) Represents the impact to cash of a maximum redemption scenario in which 6,266,645 shares of Twin Ridge Class A Ordinary Shares are redeemed for A$93.8 million allocated to common stock, using a par value of $0.0001 per share. Additionally, an IFRS 2 charge has been recognized for the excess of the fair value of MergeCo Ordinary Shares issued to Twin Ridge shareholders over the net assets of Twin Ridge as a pro forma adjustment.

•	(1B) Under Australian law share capital does not have any par value or share premium. Accordingly, this pro forma adjustment represents the reclassification of Twin Ridge additional paid-in-capital to MergeCo Ordinary Shares as a result of the Business Combination.

•	(1C) Represents the preliminary estimated direct and incremental transaction costs incurred prior to, or concurrent with, the completion of the Business Combination by Twin Ridge recognized in profit and loss which are partially settled through cash proceeds from the Transaction.

S-36

•	(1C.1) Represents a non-cash compensation incurred, concurrent with, the completion of the Business Combination by Twin Ridge through a share-based award payment to advisors. $16.4 million is translated at the relevant AUD/USD exchange rates.

•	(1D) Represents preliminary estimated direct and incremental transaction costs incurred by Carbon Revolution, allocated between new capital raised and the listing of Carbon Revolution legacy shareholder securities in a no redemption scenario directly in equity and in profit and loss respectively.

•	(1D.1) Represents preliminary estimated direct and incremental transaction costs incurred by Carbon Revolution, allocated between new and existing capital using a 25% redemption scenario directly in equity and in profit and loss respectively.

•	(1D.2) Represents preliminary estimated direct and incremental transaction costs incurred by Carbon Revolution, allocated between new and existing capital using a 75% redemption scenario directly in equity and in profit and loss respectively.

•	(1D.3) Represents preliminary estimated direct and incremental transaction costs incurred by Carbon Revolution recognized in profit and loss in a maximum redemption scenario with no new capital raised.

•

(1E) Represents the commitment fee being the fair value of 15,000 MergeCo Ordinary Shares issued to Yorkville Advisors for establishment of the committed equity facility which takes effect at closing of the Business Combination. The fair value of MergeCo Ordinary Shares is determined by reference to the implied value based on the market price of Carbon Revolution shares and associated proposed transaction exchange ratio.

•	(1F) Represents the pro forma adjustment for the exchange of Carbon Revolution shares as a result of the Business Combination.

•	(1G) Represents the pro forma adjustment for the award of Founder Shares of A$34.6 million as a result of the Business Combination with no forfeiture conditions and the award of shares to the Twin Ridge directors that are contingent on successful completion of a business combination.

•	(1H) Represents the pro forma adjustment for the share-based compensation offered to the directors that is contingent on successful completion of a business combination.

•

(1I) Reversal of commitment fee being the fair value of 15,000 MergeCo Ordinary Shares issued to Yorkville Advisors for establishment of the committed equity facility which takes effect at closing of the Business Combination. This has been recognized as part of the pro-forma adjustments in the year ended June 30, 2022.

•	(1J) Represents a reclassification of transaction expenses comprising existing staff costs to administrative expenses in order to meet IFRS requirements.

•	(1K) Represents the pro forma adjustment for the 70.6% Twin Ridge Class A Ordinary Shares, the holders of which exercised their redemption rights in connection with the Extension Meeting totaling A$225.1 million in redemptions.

•	(1L) The pro forma presentation gives effect to financing entered into subsequent to December 31, 2022 that is not contingent on consummation of the merger. The financing adjustments amounts give effect to

○	A$88.6 million equivalent in 4 year borrowings pursuant to the PIUS Financing;

○	associated transaction costs and financing fees of A$19.4 million paid out of proceeds;

○	cash reserves required to be maintained of A$14.3 million – classified as restricted cash;

○	The repayment of existing debt outstanding at December 31, 2022 of A$14.7 million; and

○	Net cash proceeds of A$40.2 million

			A$’000
Restricted Cash			14,347
Transaction costs and financing fees			19,380
Repayment of borrowings			14,658
Cash (Net proceeds)			40,176
Total			88,561

S-37

For pro forma presentation purposes, all amounts shown are in AUD converted at the USD exchange rate at December 31, 2022. However, amounts shown elsewhere are converted at the USD/AUD exchange rate in effect when the financing took place in May 2023.

•	(1M) Reflects coupon interest at 8.5% per annum and the amortization of transaction related costs on the drawdown of borrowings under the PIUS Financing as if it had been drawn down on July 1, 2021 concurrent with the Business Combination as presented in the pro forma statement of operations.

•

(1N) Reflects the A$103 million consideration under the OIC securities purchase agreement for the issuance of preferred shares and warrants effective upon consummation of the Business Combination. The adjustment gives effect to amounts immediately available to MergeCo on issuance of an initial tranche of preferred shares, the issuance of MergeCo warrants, transaction expenses and financing fees of A$3.4 million and A$51.6 million restricted in escrow subject to release upon satisfaction of certain future conditions

			A$’000
Restricted Cash			51,661
Transaction costs and financing fees			3,395
Cash (Net proceeds)			48,266
Total			103,322

The fair value of the warrant liability is based on the following number of warrants issued to OIC investors and the implied value of MergeCo shares based on the Carbon Revolution share price consistent with the measurement of pro forma IFRS2 expenses. The actual number of warrants will depend on the actual redemptions:

-	Scenario 1: No Redemptions - 5,633,321

-	Scenario 2: 25% Redemptions - 5,586,348

-	Scenario 3: 75% Redemptions - 5,492,403

-	Scenario 4: 100% Redemptions – 5,445,431

•

(1O) Reflects a 12% coupon due on the initial issuance of preferred shares to OIC investors, the accretion of the preferred share liability on an effective interest basis and the amortization of transaction related costs as if the preferred shares had been issued on July 1, 2021 concurrent with the Business Combination as presented in the proforma statements of operations.

4.	Loss per Share

Loss per share is calculated using the historical weighted average shares outstanding, and the issuance of additional MergeCo Ordinary Shares in connection with the Pro Forma Transactions, assuming such shares were outstanding since July 1, 2021. As the Pro Forma Transactions are being reflected as if they had occurred at the beginning of the period presented, the calculation of weighted average shares outstanding for basic and diluted net loss per share assumes that the Carbon Revolution ordinary shares issuable relating to the Pro Forma Transactions have been outstanding for the entire period presented. If the maximum number of Twin Ridge Class A Ordinary Shares is redeemed, this calculation is retroactively adjusted to eliminate such shares for the entire period.

As of June 30, 2022, prior to giving effect to the Pro Forma Transactions, the following Twin Ridge Ordinary Shares were authorized, issued and outstanding:

•	Class A Ordinary Shares, par value $0.0001 per share, all of which were subject to possible redemption at approximately $10.00 per share: 500,000,000 shares authorized, 21,308,813 shares issued and outstanding; and

•	Class B Ordinary Shares, par value $0.0001 per share: 50,000,000 shares authorized, 5,327,203 shares issued and outstanding (0.3 million of which will be forfeited).

S-38

For purposes of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information, after giving effect to the Pro Forma Transactions, no Twin Ridge Ordinary Shares of any series will be authorized, issued or outstanding.

For the purpose of calculating the pro forma MergeCo Ordinary Shares outstanding as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2022, it was assumed that:

•	None of Carbon Revolution’s outstanding vested or unvested options were exercised immediately prior to the Business Combination; and

•	None of the MergeCo OIC investor warrants were exercised immediately upon consummation of the Business Combination.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared assuming four alternative levels of redemption for the period then ended:

	Net Earnings (loss) per share-basic and diluted
	Scenario 1: Assuming No Redemptions	Scenario 2: Assuming 25% Redemptions	Scenario 3: Assuming 75% Redemptions	Scenario 4: Assuming Maximum Redemptions

Amended and Rested

The last paragraph beginning on page 209 in “Business of Carbon Revolution and Certain Information About Carbon Revolution” is replaced with the following text:

Revenue for the year ended June 30, 2022 was A$40.3 million (USD$27.7 million), up 15% from the previous year, primarily driven by stronger production and sales results late in the fiscal year. Revenue for the half year ended December 31, 2022 was $18.0 million (USD$12.6 million). Revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was A$7.1 million (Preliminary) (USD$5.0 million). Revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was A$13.1 million (Preliminary) (USD$8.5 million), with the revenue growth compared to the prior quarter driven by significant increases in wheel production and sales for both the Z06 Corvette and the newly-launched Range Rover Sport SV programs. Revenue for the year ended June 30, 2023 was A$38.3 million (Preliminary) (USD$24.9 million), which was 2.1% below the prior year and below the Company’s original expectations primarily due to timing of the Corvette program. Based on the updated financial projections issued on September 21, 2023, revenue is forecast to grow to A$57.9 million (USD$40.6 million) in calendar year 2023 and to A$116.9 million (USD$81.8 million) in calendar year 2024. 100% of calendar year 2023 and 100% of calendar year 2024 of this projected revenue is forecast to be derived from programs that are contracted through formal award. EBITDA for these periods is expected to be negative A$37.1 million (USD$26.0 million) in calendar year 2023 and negative A$2.7 million (USD$1.9 million) in calendar year 2024. The Company has included forecasted EBITDA, excluding transaction and one-off costs, in lieu of forecasted net income (loss) alongside its revenue projections. The Company’s use of forecasted EBITDA reflects the fact that management does not have a reasonable basis for projecting certain recurring and non-recurring expenses including taxes and interest expenses that would be necessary to present IFRS-based net income (loss) or earnings per share that will depend on a variety of factors that are not yet known.

Amended Disclosure Regarding Current Outlook—Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of Carbon Revolution

The sixth paragraph and the first part of the seventh paragraph on page 235 are revised as set forth below:

If Carbon Revolution or MergeCo does not complete a US$60 million (A$90.3 million)⁶ Qualified Capital Raise (as defined in the New Debt Program documentation), including the issuance of equity or subordinated debt that does not require certain payments until at least 180 days after the repayment of the New Debt Program, by December 31, 2023, then an additional (i) 5% of the debt amount (US$3 million (A$4.3 million)) or (ii) if no event of default has occurred, $1,500,000 in cash and 500,000 MergeCo Ordinary Shares (unless the Business Combination does not occur by September 30, 2023 and is not cured within 60 days) would be required to be paid upon the earlier of our refinancing of an outstanding loan or the maturity of the New Debt Program. If Carbon Revolution or MergeCo does not complete a US$45 million (A$64.3 million) Qualified Capital Raise, an additional (i) 5% (being 10% in total and inclusive of the requirement in the preceding sentence) of the debt amount (being US$6 million (A$8.6 million) in total, inclusive of the requirement in the preceding sentence) and (ii) if no event of default has occurred, $1,500,000 in cash and 500,000 MergeCo Ordinary Shares (unless the Business Combination does not occur by September 30, 2023 and is not cured within 60 days) is to be paid over the life of the debt program. The additional fee of US$0.15 million per month (being US$6 million divided by 41 months) resulting from not undertaking a Qualified Capital Raise of US$45 million or more is the “PIUS Additional Monthly Fee” and would be payable upon the earlier of our refinancing of an outstanding loan or the maturity date of the New Debt Program. Drawdowns under the Committed Equity Financing do not qualify as a Qualified Capital Raise.

The program documents also provide that the failure to complete the Business Combination by September 30, 2023 would be a breach of the relevant covenant, giving rise to an event of default, subject to a 60-day cure period and contains other customary events of default, including (amongst other things):

Amendment and Restatement of Description of MergeCo’s Securities

The text beginning on page 267 entitled “Description of MergeCo’s Securities” is amended and restated as set forth below:

DESCRIPTION OF MERGECO’S SECURITIES

The following description of the material terms of MergeCo’s securities following the Transactions is not intended to be a complete summary of the rights and preferences of such securities. The full text of the MergeCo Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association that will be in effect upon completion of the Transactions, is attached as Annex C to this proxy statement/prospectus. This description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the MergeCo Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, as will be in effect upon consummation of the Transactions, which is incorporated into this proxy statement/prospectus by reference.

General

MergeCo is a public limited company organized and existing under the laws of Ireland. MergeCo was formed on July 5, 2017 as a private limited liability company incorporated in Ireland under the name “Poppetell Limited” and changed its name on December 6, 2022 to “Carbon Revolution Limited”. MergeCo was re-registered as a public limited company on May 29, 2023, upon which its name changed to “Carbon Revolution Public Limited Company”. MergeCo’s affairs are governed by the ICA, the laws of Ireland and MergeCo’s Memorandum and Articles of Association.

The following are summaries of material provisions of the MergeCo Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association to be in effect assuming approval of all of the Required Twin Ridge Shareholder Proposals and upon consummation of the Transactions, and the ICA, insofar as they relate to the material terms of MergeCo Ordinary Shares.

Immediately prior to consummation of the Transactions, the authorized share capital of MergeCo will be $100,010,000 divided into 800,000,000,000 MergeCo Ordinary Shares with a nominal value of $0.0001 each, 200,000,000,000 preferred shares with a nominal value of $0.0001 each and 100,000,000 Class A Preferred Shares with a nominal value of $0.0001 each (such Class A Preferred Shares, being the “Preferred Shares” referred to in this document) and €25,000 divided into 25,000 deferred ordinary shares with a nominal value of €1.00 each.

Immediately prior to consummation of the Transactions, MergeCo will have issued and paid-up share capital of €25,000, representing 25,000 deferred shares of €1.00 each in order to satisfy statutory capitalization requirements that apply to all Irish public limited companies.

Ordinary Shares

Dividend Rights

Subject to the right (for so long as there are Preferred Shares in issue) of the Preferred Shareholders to receive a dividend in priority, the holders of MergeCo Ordinary Shares are entitled to such dividends as may be declared by the MergeCo board of directors. Dividends may be declared and paid out of the funds legally available therefor, or any other fund or account which can be authorized for this purpose in accordance with the ICA.

Voting Rights

Each MergeCo Ordinary Share shall be entitled to one vote on all matters subject to the vote at general meetings of MergeCo. Voting at any meeting of shareholders is by way of a poll, which shall be taken in such manner as the chairperson of the meeting directs.

An ordinary resolution to be passed at a meeting by the shareholders requires the affirmative vote of a simple majority of the votes attaching to MergeCo Ordinary Shares cast at a meeting, while a special resolution requires the affirmative vote of no less than 75% of the votes cast attaching to the outstanding MergeCo Ordinary Shares at a meeting. Where the shareholders wish to act by way of written resolution in lieu of holding a meeting, unanimous consent of the holders of MergeCo Ordinary Shares shall be required. A special resolution

S-41

will be required for important matters such as a change of name, reducing the share capital or making changes to the MergeCo Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association to be in effect, assuming approval of all of the charter proposals and upon consummation of the Transactions.

Provisions in MergeCo’s Memorandum and Articles of Association enable a person who would otherwise incur a mandatory offer obligation under the Panel Act 1997, Takeover Rules 2022 (the “Irish Takeover Rules”) by the acquisition of MergeCo Ordinary Shares to avoid that obligation by requesting that MergeCo redesignate some or all of its MergeCo Ordinary Shares as restricted voting ordinary shares having no right to vote at general meetings of MergeCo but otherwise ranking pari passu with the other MergeCo Ordinary Shares.

Transfer of MergeCo Ordinary Shares

Subject to the restrictions contained in the Business Combination Agreement with respect to the MergeCo Ordinary Shares, and subject to any further restrictions contained in the MergeCo Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, any MergeCo shareholder may transfer all or any of his or her MergeCo Ordinary Shares by an instrument of transfer in the usual or common form or any other form approved by the MergeCo board of directors.

Liquidation

On a return of capital on winding-up or otherwise (other than on conversion, redemption or purchase of MergeCo Ordinary Shares), assets available for distribution among the holders of MergeCo Ordinary Shares shall be distributed among the holders thereof on a pro rata basis, only after distribution in full is made to the holders of any Preferred Shares then in issue. If MergeCo’s assets available for distribution (after distribution to the holders of Preferred Shares, where relevant) are insufficient to repay all of the paid-up capital of the MergeCo Ordinary Shares, the assets will be distributed so that the losses are borne by MergeCo’s shareholders proportionately.

General Meetings of Shareholders

Shareholders’ meetings may be convened by the MergeCo board of directors on the requisition of the shareholders or, if the MergeCo board of directors fails to so convene a meeting, such extraordinary general meeting may be convened by the requisitioning shareholders where the requisitioning shareholders hold not less than 10% of the paid-up share capital of MergeCo. Any action required or permitted to be taken at any annual or extraordinary general meetings may be taken only upon the vote of the shareholders at an annual or extraordinary general meeting duly noticed and convened in accordance with the MergeCo Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association and the ICA. Unanimous consent of the holders of MergeCo Ordinary Shares shall be required before the shareholders may act by way of written resolution without a meeting.

Preferred Shares

Dividend Rights

The holders of Preferred Shares are entitled to cumulative dividends of 12% per annum, which accrue daily and are payable quarterly in cash out of distributable profits or in shares of Preferred Shares, at MergeCo’s option, in accordance with the terms of the MergeCo Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association . No distributions shall be made with respect to any shares in the capital of the MergeCo prior to the holders of Preferred Shares having received their Class A Preferred Share Return (as defined in the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association).

Voting Rights

Holders of Preferred Shares shall be entitled to exercise a number of votes at any general meeting of the Company as calculated in accordance with the formula set out in MergeCo’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association.

Liquidation

On a return of capital on liquidation, a capital reduction or otherwise, the assets of MergeCo that are available for distribution to its members shall first be applied in paying to the Preferred Shareholders prior, and in preference, to the members holding any other class of shares in MergeCo, an amount equal to the applicable

S-42

Class A Preferred Share Return (as defined in MergeCo’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association). If MergeCo’s assets available for distribution are insufficient to make payment in the amount of the Class A Preferred Share Return, the assets will be distributed so that the losses are borne by the Preferred Shareholders proportionately. Such provisions also to the proceeds of a sale on a Change of Control Transaction (as defined in the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association), which shall be paid to the holders of Preferred Shares as consideration for their Preferred Shares in priority to any payment to the holders of any other class of shares in the capital of MergeCo as if the proceeds of such Change of Control Transaction constituted the assets of MergeCo available for distribution on a liquidation or return of capital.

Other Rights

There are a number of matters listed in Schedule 1 of MergeCo’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (i.e., the Structured Voting Rights Matters) which MergeCo cannot undertake without the prior written consent of the holders of a majority of the Preferred Shares in issue.

In the event that MergeCo fails to redeem the Preferred Shares on the mandatory date for their redemption, or where MergeCo breaches certain other provisions of the Securities Purchase Agreement or MergeCo’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, the holders of a majority of the Preferred Shares in issue shall be entitled to provide directions to the MergeCo board of directors with respect to certain specified matters (i.e., the Springing Rights Matters) as set out in Schedule 2 of MergeCo’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association.

Warrants

Effective upon the consummation of the Business Combination, MergeCo will become the successor to Twin Ridge under the Existing Warrant Agreement and each outstanding and unexercised Public Warrant shall, in accordance with the terms of the Warrant Assumption Agreement, be automatically exchanged by assumption by MergeCo of the obligations under the Public Warrants, including to become exercisable in respect of MergeCo Ordinary Shares instead of Twin Ridge Ordinary Shares, and each Private Placement Warrant shall be automatically exchanged by assumption by MergeCo of the obligations under the Private Placement Warrants, including to become one MergeCo Founder Warrant. Each MergeCo Public Warrant and MergeCo Founder Warrant will be subject to the same terms and conditions that the corresponding Public Warrant and Private Placement Warrant, as applicable, had with respect to Twin Ridge’s Ordinary Shares immediately prior to the Twin Ridge Merger Effective Time. At the Twin Ridge Merger Effective Time, MergeCo expects to have outstanding (i) MergeCo Public Warrants to purchase an aggregate of 7,102,899 MergeCo Ordinary Shares, (ii) MergeCo Founder Warrants to purchase an aggregate of 5,107,842 MergeCo Ordinary Shares, in each case, with an exercise price of $11.50 per share and (iii) the OIC Warrants. The MergeCo Warrant contains provisions for the adjustment of the exercise price and the number of shares issuable upon the exercise of the applicable warrant in the event of certain events, including stock dividends, stock splits, reclassifications and consolidations. Certain of the MergeCo Warrants also contain net exercise provisions pursuant to which the holder may, in lieu of paying the exercise price in cash, surrender the applicable warrant and receive a net amount of shares based on the fair market value of MergeCo Ordinary Shares at the time of exercise after deducting the aggregate exercise price.

Public Shareholders’ Warrants

The MergeCo Public Warrants will entitle the registered holder to purchase one ordinary share at a price. Each MergeCo Public Warrant will entitle the registered holder to purchase one MergeCo Ordinary Share at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment as discussed below, at any time commencing on the later of March 8, 2022 and 30 days after the Twin Ridge Merger Effective Time. The MergeCo Public Warrants will expire five years after the Twin Ridge Merger Effective Time, at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.

Under the Existing Warrant Agreement, MergeCo will not be obligated to deliver any MergeCo Ordinary Shares pursuant to the exercise of a MergeCo Public Warrant and will have no obligation to settle such warrant exercise unless a registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to the MergeCo Ordinary Shares underlying the MergeCo Public Warrants is then effective and a prospectus relating thereto is current, subject to our satisfying our obligations described below with respect to registration, or a valid exemption from registration

S-43

is available. No MergeCo Public Warrant will be exercisable, and we are not obligated to issue any MergeCo Ordinary Shares to holders seeking to exercise their warrants, unless the issuance of the shares upon such exercise is registered, qualified or deemed to be exempt from registration or qualification under the securities laws of the state of the exercising holder. In the event that the conditions in the two immediately preceding sentences are not satisfied with respect to a MergeCo Public Warrant, the holder of such warrant will not be entitled to exercise such warrant and such warrant may have no value and expire worthless. In no event will we be required to net cash settle any MergeCo Public Warrant. In the event that a registration statement is not effective for the exercised warrants, the purchaser of a unit containing such warrant will have paid the full purchase price for the unit solely for the MergeCo Ordinary Shares underlying such unit.

MergeCo has agreed that as soon as practicable, but in no event later than 20 Business Days after the Twin Ridge Merger Effective Time, MergeCo will use commercially reasonable efforts to file with the SEC a registration statement for the registration, under the Securities Act, of the MergeCo Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the MergeCo Public Warrants. MergeCo will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the same to become effective within 60 Business Days after the Twin Ridge Merger Effective Time, and to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement, and a current prospectus relating thereto, until the expiration of the MergeCo Public Warrants in accordance with the provisions of the Existing Warrant Agreement. If a registration statement covering the issuance of shares issuable upon the exercise of MergeCo Public Warrants is not effective by the 60th Business Day from the Closing, warrant holders may, until such time as there is an effective registration statement and during any period when MergeCo will have failed to maintain an effective registration statement, exercise MergeCo Public Warrants on a cashless basis pursuant to an available exemption from registration under the Securities Act. In such event, each holder would pay the exercise price by surrendering the MergeCo Public Warrant for that number of MergeCo Ordinary Shares equal to the lesser of (A) the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of MergeCo Ordinary Shares underlying the MergeCo Public Warrants, multiplied by the excess of the “fair market value” (as defined below) less the exercise price of the MergeCo Public Warrants by (y) the fair market value and (B) 0.361. The “fair market value” as used in this paragraph shall mean the volume weighted average price of MergeCo Ordinary Shares for the 10 trading days ending on the trading day prior to the date on which the notice of exercise is received by the warrant agent.

Notwithstanding the above, if MergeCo Ordinary Shares are at the time of any exercise of a MergeCo Public Warrant not listed on a national securities exchange such that they satisfy the definition of a “covered security” under Section 18(b)(1) of the Securities Act, MergeCo may, at our option, require holders of MergeCo Public Warrants who exercise their warrants to do so on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act and, in the event MergeCo so elects, MergeCo will not be required to file or maintain in effect a registration statement, but MergeCo will use commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify the shares under applicable blue sky laws to the extent an exemption is not available.

Redemption of MergeCo Public Warrants when the price per MergeCo Ordinary Share equals or exceeds $18.00.

Once the MergeCo Public Warrants become exercisable, MergeCo may redeem the outstanding MergeCo Public Warrants (excluding the MergeCo Founder Warrants):

•	in whole and not in part;

•	at a price of $0.01 per warrant;

•	upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption to each warrant holder; and

•

if, and only if, the closing price of the MergeCo Ordinary Shares equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (as adjusted for adjustments described under “—Anti-dilution Adjustments”) for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which notice of the redemption is sent to the warrant holders.

If and when the warrants become redeemable, MergeCo may exercise its redemption right even if it is unable to register or qualify the underlying securities for sale under all applicable state securities laws.

We will not redeem the MergeCo Public Warrants as described above unless a registration statement under the Securities Act covering the issuance of the MergeCo Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the MergeCo

S-44

Public warrants is then effective and a current prospectus relating to those MergeCo Ordinary Shares is available throughout the 30-day redemption period. If and when the MergeCo Public Warrants become redeemable by us, we may exercise our redemption right even if we are unable to register or qualify the underlying securities for sale under all applicable state securities laws.

The redemption criterion discussed above have been established to prevent a redemption call unless there is at the time of the call a significant premium to the MergeCo Warrant exercise price. If the foregoing conditions are satisfied and MergeCo issues a notice of redemption of the MergeCo Public Warrants, each warrant holder will be entitled to exercise his, her or its warrant prior to the scheduled redemption date. However, the price of the MergeCo Ordinary Shares may fall below the $18.00 redemption trigger price (as adjusted for adjustments described under “—Anti-dilution Adjustments”) as well as the $11.50 per share warrant exercise price after the redemption notice is issued.

Redemption of MergeCo Public Warrants when the price per MergeCo Ordinary Share equals or exceeds $10.00.

When the MergeCo Public Warrants become exercisable, MergeCo may redeem the outstanding MergeCo Public Warrants:

•	in whole and not in part;

•

at $0.10 per warrant upon a minimum of 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption provided that holders will be able to exercise their warrants on a cashless basis prior to redemption and receive that number of shares determined by reference to the table below, based on the redemption date and the “fair market value” (as defined below) of the MergeCo Ordinary Shares, except as otherwise described below;

•

if, and only if, the closing price of the MergeCo Ordinary Shares equals or exceeds $10.00 per public share (as adjusted for adjustments described under “—Anti-dilution Adjustments”) for any 20 trading days within the 30-trading day period ending three trading days before we send the notice of redemption to the warrant holders; and

•

if the closing price of the MergeCo Ordinary Shares for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which we send the notice of redemption to the warrant holders is less than $18.00 per share (as adjusted for adjustments described under “—Anti-dilution Adjustments”), the MergeCo Founder Warrants must also be concurrently called for redemption on the same terms as the outstanding MergeCo Public Warrants, as described above.

The “fair market value” as used in this paragraph means the volume weighted average price of MergeCo Ordinary Shares for the ten (10) trading days immediately following the date on which the notice of redemption is sent to the holders of warrants.

Beginning on the date the notice of redemption is given until the MergeCo Public Warrants are redeemed or exercised, holders may elect to exercise their MergeCo Public Warrants on a cashless basis. The numbers in the table below represent the number of MergeCo Ordinary Shares that a warrant holder will receive upon such cashless exercise in connection with a redemption by us pursuant to this redemption feature, based on the “fair market value” of the MergeCo Ordinary Shares on the corresponding redemption date (assuming holders elect to exercise their MergeCo Public Warrants and such warrants are not redeemed for $0.10 per warrant), determined for these purposes based on volume weighted average price of the MergeCo Ordinary Shares as reported during the 10 trading days immediately following the date on which the notice of redemption is sent to the holders of MergeCo Public Warrants, and the number of months that the corresponding redemption date precedes the expiration date of the MergeCo Public Warrants, each as set forth in the table below. We will provide our warrant holders with the final fair market value no later than one Business Day after the 10-trading day period described above ends.

The share prices set forth in the column headings of the table below will be adjusted as of any date on which the number of MergeCo Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of a MergeCo Public Warrant or the exercise price of a MergeCo Public Warrant is adjusted as set forth under the subheading “—Anti-dilution Adjustments” below. If the number of MergeCo Ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of a warrant is adjusted, the adjusted share prices in the column headings will equal the share prices immediately prior to such

S-45

adjustment, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of MergeCo Ordinary Shares deliverable upon exercise of a MergeCo Public Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment and the denominator of which is the number of MergeCo Ordinary Shares deliverable upon exercise of a MergeCo Public Warrant as so adjusted. The number of MergeCo Ordinary Shares in the table below shall be adjusted in the same manner and at the same time as the number of MergeCo Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of a MergeCo Public Warrant. If the exercise price of a MergeCo Public Warrant is adjusted, (a) in the case of an adjustment pursuant to the fifth paragraph under the heading “—Anti-dilution Adjustments” below, the adjusted share prices in the column headings will equal the unadjusted price multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price as set forth under the heading “—Anti-dilution Adjustments” and the denominator of which is $10.00 and (b) in the case of an adjustment pursuant to the second paragraph under the heading “—Anti-dilution Adjustments” below, the adjusted share prices in the column headings will equal the unadjusted share price less the decrease in the exercise price of a MergeCo Public Warrant pursuant to such exercise price adjustment.

The exact fair market value and redemption date may not be set forth in the table above, in which case, if the fair market value is between two values in the table or the redemption date is between two redemption dates in the table, the number of MergeCo Ordinary Shares to be issued for each MergeCo Public Warrant exercised will be determined by a straight-line interpolation between the number of MergeCo Ordinary Shares set forth for the higher and lower fair market values and the earlier and later redemption dates, as applicable, based on a 365 or 366-day year, as applicable. For example, if the volume weighted average price of the MergeCo Ordinary Shares during the 10 trading days immediately following the date on which the notice of redemption is sent to the holders of the MergeCo Public Warrants is $11.00 per share, and at such time there are 57 months until the expiration of the MergeCo Public Warrants, holders may choose to, in connection with this redemption feature, exercise their warrants for 0.277 MergeCo Ordinary Shares for each whole warrant. For an example where the exact fair market value and redemption date are not as set forth in the table above, if the volume weighted average price of the MergeCo Ordinary Shares during the 10 trading days immediately following the date on which the notice of redemption is sent to the holders of the MergeCo Public Warrants is $13.50 per share, and at such time there are 38 months until the expiration of the MergeCo Public Warrants, holders may choose to, in connection with this redemption feature, exercise their MergeCo Public Warrants for 0.298 MergeCo Ordinary Shares for each whole warrant. In no event will the MergeCo Public Warrants be exercisable on a cashless basis in connection with this redemption feature for more than 0.361 MergeCo Ordinary Shares per warrant (subject to adjustment). Finally, as reflected in the table above, if the MergeCo Public Warrants are out of the money and about to expire, they cannot be exercised on a cashless basis in connection with a redemption pursuant to this redemption feature, since they will not be exercisable for any MergeCo Ordinary Shares.

S-46

This redemption feature is structured to allow for all of the outstanding MergeCo Public Warrants to be redeemed when the MergeCo Ordinary Shares are trading at or above $10.00 per share, which may be at a time when the trading price of the MergeCo Ordinary Shares is below the exercise price of the MergeCo Public Warrants. This redemption feature permits redemption of the MergeCo Public Warrants without the warrants having to reach the $18.00 per share threshold set forth above. Holders choosing to exercise their MergeCo Public Warrants in connection with a redemption pursuant to this feature will, in effect, receive a number of MergeCo Ordinary Shares for their MergeCo Public Warrants based on an option pricing model with a fixed volatility input. This redemption right is an additional mechanism by which outstanding MergeCo Public Warrants can be redeemed, and therefore permitting certainty with respect to capital structure as the MergeCo Public Warrants would no longer be outstanding and would have been exercised or redeemed. Warrant holders would receive the applicable redemption price if such redemption right is exercised; it would permit a quick redemption process, if determined to be in the best interest to do so. As such, the warrants would be redeemed in this manner, when in the best interest, to update our capital structure to remove the warrants and pay the redemption price to the warrant holders.

As stated above, the MergeCo Public Warrants can be redeemed when the MergeCo Ordinary Shares are trading at a price starting at $10.00, which is below the exercise price of $11.50 per share, because it will provide certainty with respect to our capital structure and cash position while providing warrant holders with the opportunity to exercise their MergeCo Public Warrants on a cashless basis for the applicable number of MergeCo Ordinary Shares. If MergeCo chooses to redeem the MergeCo Public Warrants when the MergeCo Ordinary Shares are trading at a price below the exercise price of the warrants, this could result in the warrant holders receiving fewer MergeCo Ordinary Shares than they would have received if they exercised their MergeCo Public Warrants for MergeCo Ordinary Shares if and when such MergeCo Ordinary Shares were trading at a price higher than the exercise price of $11.50 per share.

No fractional MergeCo Ordinary Shares will be issued upon exercise. If, upon exercise, a holder would be entitled to receive a fractional interest in a MergeCo Ordinary Share, we will round down to the nearest whole number of the number of MergeCo Ordinary Shares to be issued to the holder. If, at the time of redemption, the MergeCo Public Warrants are exercisable for a security other than the MergeCo Ordinary Shares pursuant to the Existing Warrant Agreement, the MergeCo Public Warrants may be exercised for such security. At such time as the MergeCo Public Warrants become exercisable for a security other than the MergeCo Ordinary Shares, MergeCo will use commercially reasonable efforts to register under the Securities Act the security issuable upon the exercise of the MergeCo Public Warrants.

Redemption procedures.

Holder Election to Limit Exercise. A holder of a warrant may notify MergeCo in writing in the event it elects to be subject to a requirement that such holder will not have the right to exercise such warrant, to the extent that after giving effect to such exercise, such person (together with such person’s affiliates), to the warrant agent’s actual knowledge, would beneficially own in excess of 9.8% (as specified by the holder) of the MergeCo Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise.

Anti-dilution Adjustments.

If the number of outstanding MergeCo Ordinary Shares is increased by a capitalization or share dividend paid in MergeCo Ordinary Shares to all or substantially all holders of MergeCo Ordinary Shares, or by a split up of MergeCo Ordinary Shares or other similar event, then, on the effective date of such capitalization or share dividend, split up, or similar event, the number of MergeCo Ordinary Shares issuable on exercise of each MergeCo Public Warrant will be increased in proportion to such increase in the outstanding MergeCo Ordinary Shares. A rights offering to holders of MergeCo Ordinary Shares entitling holders to purchase MergeCo Ordinary Shares at a price less than the historical fair market value (as defined below) will be deemed a share dividend of a number of MergeCo Ordinary Shares equal to the product of (i) the number of MergeCo Ordinary Shares actually sold in such rights offering (or issuable under any other equity securities sold in such rights offering that are convertible into or exercisable for MergeCo Ordinary Shares) and (ii) one minus the quotient of (x) the price per MergeCo Ordinary Share paid in such rights offering and (y) the historical fair market value. For these purposes (i) if the rights offering is for securities convertible into or exercisable for MergeCo Ordinary Shares, in determining the price payable for MergeCo Ordinary Shares, there will be taken into account any consideration received for such rights, as well as any additional amount payable upon exercise or conversion and

S-47

(ii) “historical fair market value” means the volume weighted average price of MergeCo Ordinary Shares as reported during the 10 trading day period ending on the trading day prior to the first date on which the MergeCo Ordinary Shares trade on the applicable exchange or in the applicable market, regular way, without the right to receive such rights.

In addition, if MergeCo, at any time while the MergeCo Public Warrants are outstanding and unexpired, pays a dividend or makes a distribution in cash, securities or other assets to the holders of MergeCo Ordinary Shares on account of such MergeCo Ordinary Shares (or other securities into which the warrants are convertible), other than (a) as described above, (b) any cash dividends or cash distributions which, when combined on a per share basis with all other cash dividends and cash distributions paid on the MergeCo Ordinary Shares during the 365-day period ending on the date of declaration of such dividend or distribution does not exceed $0.50 (as adjusted to appropriately reflect any other adjustments and excluding cash dividends or cash distributions that resulted in an adjustment to the exercise price or to the number of MergeCo Ordinary Shares issuable on exercise of each MergeCo Public Warrant) but only with respect to the amount of the aggregate cash dividends or cash distributions equal to or less than $0.50 per share, then the warrant exercise price will be decreased, effective immediately after the effective date of such event, by the amount of cash and/or the fair market value of any securities or other assets paid on each ordinary share in respect of such event.

If the number of issued and outstanding MergeCo Ordinary Shares is decreased by a consolidation, combination, reverse share sub-divisions or reclassification of MergeCo Ordinary Shares or other similar event, then, on the effective date of such consolidation, combination, reverse share sub-divisions, reclassification or similar event, the number of MergeCo Ordinary Shares issuable on exercise of each warrant will be decreased in proportion to such decrease in issued and outstanding MergeCo Ordinary Shares.

Whenever the number of MergeCo Ordinary Shares purchasable upon the exercise of the warrants is adjusted, as described above, the MergeCo Public Warrant exercise price will be adjusted by multiplying the MergeCo Public Warrant exercise price immediately prior to such adjustment by a fraction (x) the numerator of which will be the number of MergeCo Ordinary Shares purchasable upon the exercise of the MergeCo Public Warrants immediately prior to such adjustment, and (y) the denominator of which will be the number of MergeCo Ordinary Shares so purchasable immediately thereafter.

In addition, if (x) we issue additional MergeCo Ordinary Shares or equity-linked securities for capital raising purposes in connection with the closing of the Business Combination at an issue price or effective issue price of less than $9.20 per MergeCo Ordinary Share (with such issue price or effective issue price to be determined in good faith and in the case of any such issuance to Sponsors or their affiliates, without taking into account any Founder Shares held by the Founder Holders or such affiliates, as applicable, prior to such issuance) (the “Newly Issued Price”), (y) the aggregate gross proceeds from such issuances represent more than 60% of the total equity proceeds, and interest thereon, available for the funding of the Business Combination on the date of the completion of the Business Combination (net of redemptions), and (z) the volume-weighted average trading price of the MergeCo Ordinary Shares during the 20 trading day period starting on the trading day prior to the Twin Ridge Merger Effective Time (such price, the “Market Value”) is below $9.20 per share, the exercise price of the MergeCo Public Warrants will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 115% of the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price, the $18.00 per share redemption trigger price described above will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 180% of the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price, and the $10.00 per share redemption trigger price described above will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price.

In case of any reclassification or reorganization of the outstanding MergeCo Ordinary Shares (other than those described above or that solely affects the par value of such MergeCo Ordinary Shares), or in the case of any merger or consolidation of us with or into another corporation (other than a consolidation or merger in which we are the continuing corporation and that does not result in any reclassification or reorganization of our outstanding MergeCo Ordinary Shares), or in the case of any sale or conveyance to another corporation or entity of the assets or other property of us as an entirety or substantially as an entirety in connection with which we are dissolved, the holders of the MergeCo Public Warrants will thereafter have the right to purchase and receive, upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions specified in the MergeCo Public Warrants and in lieu of the MergeCo Ordinary Shares immediately theretofore purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of the rights represented thereby, the kind and amount of MergeCo Ordinary Shares or other securities or property (including cash) receivable upon such reclassification, reorganization, merger or consolidation, or upon a dissolution following any such sale or transfer, that the holder of the

S-48

warrants would have received if such holder had exercised their warrants immediately prior to such event. However, if such holders were entitled to exercise a right of election as to the kind or amount of securities, cash or other assets receivable upon such consolidation or merger, then the kind and amount of securities, cash or other assets for which each warrant will become exercisable will be deemed to be the weighted average of the kind and amount received per share by such holders in such consolidation or merger that affirmatively make such election, and if a tender, exchange or redemption offer has been made to and accepted by such holders under circumstances in which, upon completion of such tender or exchange offer, the maker thereof, together with members of any group (within the meaning of Rule 13d-5(b)(1) under the Exchange Act) of which such maker is a part, and together with any affiliate or associate of such maker (within the meaning of Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act) and any members of any such group of which any such affiliate or associate is a part, own beneficially (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act) more than 50% of the issued and outstanding MergeCo Ordinary Shares, the holder of a warrant will be entitled to receive the highest amount of cash, securities or other property to which such holder would actually have been entitled as a shareholder if such warrant holder had exercised the warrant prior to the expiration of such tender or exchange offer, accepted such offer and all of the MergeCo Ordinary Shares held by such holder had been purchased pursuant to such tender or exchange offer, subject to adjustment (from and after the consummation of such tender or exchange offer) as nearly equivalent as possible to the adjustments provided for in the Existing Warrant Agreement. If less than 70% of the consideration receivable by the holders of MergeCo Ordinary Shares in such a transaction is payable in the form of MergeCo Ordinary Shares in the successor entity that is listed for trading on a national securities exchange or is quoted in an established over-the-counter market, or is to be so listed for trading or quoted immediately following such event, and if the registered holder of the warrant properly exercises the warrant within thirty days following public disclosure of such transaction, the warrant exercise price will be reduced as specified in the Existing Warrant Agreement based on the Black-Scholes value (as defined in the Existing Warrant Agreement) of the warrant. The purpose of such exercise price reduction is to provide additional value to holders of the warrants when an extraordinary transaction occurs during the exercise period of the warrants pursuant to which the holders of the warrants otherwise do not receive the full potential value of the warrants.

The Public Warrants that are to be exchanged for MergeCo Public Warrants have been issued in registered form under the Existing Warrant Agreement. The Existing Warrant Agreement will, following MergeCo becoming the successor to Twin Ridge under the Existing Warrant Agreement, provide that the terms of the MergeCo Public Warrants may be amended without the consent of any holder for the purposes of (i) curing any ambiguity or correct any mistake, including to conform the provisions of the Existing Warrant Agreement to the description of the terms of the warrants and the Existing Warrant Agreement set forth in this proxy statement/prospectus, or defective provision, (ii) amending the definition of ordinary cash dividends on MergeCo Ordinary Shares as contemplated by and in accordance with the Existing Warrant Agreement or (iii) adding or changing any provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under the Existing Warrant Agreement as the parties to the Existing Warrant Agreement may deem necessary or desirable and that the parties deem to not adversely affect the rights of the registered holders of the MergeCo Public Warrants, provided that the approval by the holders of at least 50% of the then outstanding MergeCo Public Warrants is required to make any change that adversely affects the interests of the registered holders. You should review a copy of the Existing Warrant Agreement, which has been filed as an exhibit to this proxy statement/prospectus, for a complete description of the terms and conditions applicable to the MergeCo Public Warrants.

The MergeCo Public Warrants may be exercised upon surrender of the warrant certificate on or prior to the expiration date at the offices of the warrant agent, with the exercise form on the reverse side of the warrant certificate completed and executed as indicated, accompanied by full payment of the exercise price (or on a cashless basis, if applicable), by certified or official bank check payable to us, for the number of MergeCo Public Warrants being exercised. The warrant holders do not have the rights or privileges of holders of MergeCo Ordinary Shares and any voting rights until they exercise their MergeCo Public Warrants and receive MergeCo Ordinary Shares. After the issuance of MergeCo Ordinary Shares upon exercise of the MergeCo Public Warrants, each holder will be entitled to one vote for each MergeCo Ordinary Share held of record on all matters to be voted on by shareholders.

Warrants may be exercised only for a whole number of MergeCo Ordinary Shares. No fractional shares will be issued upon exercise of the warrants. If, upon exercise of the warrants, a holder would be entitled to receive a fractional interest in a share, we will, upon exercise, round down to the nearest whole number the number of MergeCo Ordinary Shares to be issued to the warrant holder.

We have agreed that, subject to applicable law, any action, proceeding or claim against us arising out of or relating in any way to the Existing Warrant Agreement will be brought and enforced in the courts of the State of New York or the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, and we irrevocably submit to such jurisdiction, which jurisdiction will be the exclusive forum for any such action, proceeding or claim. This provision applies to claims under the Securities Act but does not apply to claims under the Exchange Act or any claim for which the federal district courts of the United States of America are the sole and exclusive forum.

MergeCo Founder Warrants

Except as described below, the MergeCo Founder Warrants will have terms and provisions that are identical to those of the MergeCo Public Warrants. The MergeCo Founder Warrants (including the MergeCo Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise thereof) will not be transferable, assignable or salable until 30 days after the Business Combination (except pursuant to limited exceptions to Twin Ridge’s officers and directors and other persons or entities affiliated with the Sponsor) and they will not be redeemable by us (except as described under “—Warrants—Public Shareholders’ Warrants—Redemption of MergeCo Public Warrants for MergeCo Ordinary Shares when the price per MergeCo Ordinary Share equals or exceeds $10.00”) so long as they are held by the Sponsor or its permitted transferees (except as otherwise set forth herein). The Sponsor, or its permitted transferees, have the option to exercise the MergeCo Founder Warrants on a cashless basis. If the MergeCo Founder Warrants are held by holders other than Sponsor or its permitted transferees, the MergeCo Founder Warrants will be redeemable by us in all redemption scenarios and exercisable by the holders on the same basis as the MergeCo Public Warrants.

Except as described above under “—Public Shareholders’ Warrants—Redemption of MergeCo Public Warrants for MergeCo Ordinary Shares when the price per MergeCo Ordinary Share equals or exceeds $10.00”, if holders of the MergeCo Founder Warrants elect to exercise them on a cashless basis, they would pay the exercise price by surrendering his, her or its MergeCo Founder Warrants for that number of MergeCo Ordinary Shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of MergeCo Ordinary Shares underlying the MergeCo Founder Warrants, multiplied by the excess of the “Sponsor fair market value” over the exercise price of the MergeCo Founder Warrants by (y) the Sponsor fair market value. For these purposes, the “Sponsor fair market value” shall mean the average reported closing price of the MergeCo Ordinary Shares for the 10 trading days ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the notice of warrant exercise is sent to the warrant agent.

OIC Warrants

OIC MergeCo Warrant

The OIC MergeCo Warrant is exercisable for Warrant Shares immediately at an exercise price of $0.01 per share (the “MergeCo Exercise Price”) and expires seven years from the date of issuance. The MergeCo Exercise Price is subject to customary adjustments for stock dividends, stock splits, reclassifications and the like. The OIC MergeCo Warrant may be exercised for cash or may be exercised on a cashless basis. The number of Warrant Shares issuable is equal to, subject to adjustment, the Vested Warrant Percentage (as defined below) multiplied by the number of outstanding Ordinary Shares calculated on a fully-diluted basis immediately following the consummation of the Scheme Acquisition. The determination of the fully-diluted basis includes (a) all issued MergeCo Ordinary Shares (excluding any Ordinary Shares issued in exchange for TRCA Class A Ordinary Shares in connection with the Business Combination) immediately following the Business Combination, (b) any “Initial Equity Awards”, defined to be equal to up to 5% of total MergeCo Ordinary Shares granted at closing of the Business Combination under MergeCo’s approved equity incentive plan, (c) any additional Ordinary Shares issued (or issuable) under the approved equity incentive plan through the second anniversary of the closing of the Business Combination, (d) any later issuances of Ordinary Shares upon cashless exercise of the Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants, and (e) any other Ordinary Shares issuable upon the exercise or conversion of all other outstanding Equity Interests (as defined in the Warrant) as of the closing of the Business Combination (including the OIC MergeCo Warrant). The calculation of fully-diluted basis for purposes of the OIC MergeCo Warrant expressly excludes Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants for cash. The Vested Warrant Percentage means: (i) 12.49%; plus (ii) upon the OIC Investors’ subscription for the Second Reserve Release securities, 5.00%; plus (iii) upon the earlier of (a) the date on which OIC has funded a Subsequent Closing and (b) the end of 24 months following the Initial Closing date, 2.50%; provided, that, if the OIC Investor fails to fund a Subsequent Closing upon the satisfaction of the conditions thereto then clause (iii) shall be null and void.

S-50

The OIC MergeCo Warrant contains restrictions on MergeCo’s ability to raise equity capital in certain circumstances. MergeCo shall obtain the consent of the holders of the OIC MergeCo Warrant prior to (i) issuing Ordinary Shares at a price per share lower than the Maximum Discount (as defined in the OIC MergeCo Warrant); (ii) issuing Ordinary Shares such that the holders of the OIC MergeCo Warrant would be diluted to less than 10% of the aggregate number of outstanding Ordinary Shares calculated on a fully-diluted basis; or (iii) amending the MergeCo Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association in a way that would be materially adverse to the holders of the OIC MergeCo Warrant. In the case of (i) and (ii) above, such consent rights only apply if the holders of the OIC MergeCo Warrant beneficially own at least 10% of the outstanding MergeCo Ordinary Shares, on a fully-diluted basis and assuming the full exercise of the OIC MergeCo Warrant without any reduction for any portion that is unvested or incapable of vesting, at the time of the proposed equity issuance. Additionally, if the OIC Investors fail to fund a Subsequent Closing when all of the conditions precedent thereto other than the approval of the OIC Investors’ own investment committee are satisfied, then such consent rights shall terminate.

Share Capital Reduction

Following the Initial Closing, MergeCo will apply to the High Court of Ireland for an order to confirm the Share Capital Reduction within 10 Business Days of the Initial Closing, and will use best efforts to obtain such order as promptly as practicable (and in any event within 60 days of the Initial Closing). The Share Capital Reduction is intended to create a level of distributable profits which are available to cover, in part, the amount of any cash dividend or redemption amount payable to the holders of the Preferred Shares. If the Share Capital Reduction is implemented, the funds included in MergeCo’s reserves will be permitted to be used for paying dividends and redeeming the Preferred Shares, which may reduce MergeCo’s funds available to fund operations and MergeCo’s growth without any amounts expended in such dividends or redemptions being paid to holders of Ordinary Shares.

MergeCo’s Transfer Agent and Warrant Agent

The transfer agent for MergeCo’s warrants will be Computershare Trust Company, N.A. MergeCo has agreed to indemnify Computershare Trust Company, N.A. in its roles as transfer agent and warrant agent, its agents and each of its shareholders, directors, officers and employees against all liabilities, including judgments, costs and reasonable counsel fees that may arise out of acts performed or omitted for its activities in that capacity, except for any liability due to any gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith of the indemnified person or entity.

History of Security Issuances

Upon its formation, MergeCo issued fifty MergeCo Ordinary Shares at a price of €1.00 each to each of Paula Horan and Andrew Lambe. On November 25, 2022, Paula Horan and Andrew Lambe transferred the entire issued and outstanding share capital of MergeCo to Enceladus Holding Limited. On March 31, 2023, MergeCo issued a further 24,900 ordinary shares to Gerard Buckle to fulfill Irish statutory capitalization requirements for the purposes of re-registering MergeCo as a public limited company. On May 4, 2023, the 100 MergeCo Ordinary Shares issued on incorporation and subsequently acquired by Enceladus Holding Limited were transferred to Gerard Buckle, such that MergeCo is now wholly owned by Gerard Buckle. MergeCo now has, and immediately prior to consummation of the Transactions will have, paid up capital of €25,000.

Transfer Agent

Upon the completion of the Transactions, the transfer agent for MergeCo Ordinary Shares will be Computershare Trust Company, N.A.

Listing

MergeCo will apply for the listing of MergeCo Ordinary Shares and MergeCo Warrants on Nasdaq Global under the symbols “CREV” and “CREVW”, respectively.

Amendment and Restatement of Comparison of Corporate Governance and Shareholder Rights

The text beginning on page 279 entitled “Comparison of Corporate Governance and Shareholder Rights” is amended and restated as set forth below:

COMPARISON OF CORPORATE GOVERNANCE AND SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS

Twin Ridge is an exempted company incorporated in the Cayman Islands and Twin Ridge’s Existing Organizational Documents and the Cayman Islands Companies Act govern the rights of the Twin Ridge shareholders. Post-combination, MergeCo will be a public limited company organized and existing under the laws of Ireland, and the MergeCo Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association and the ICA will govern the rights of MergeCo’s shareholders. The ICA differs in some material respects from the Cayman Islands Companies Act. In addition, the Existing Organizational Documents of Twin Ridge differs in certain material respects from the MergeCo Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association. As a result, when you become a shareholder of MergeCo, your rights will differ in some regards as compared to when you were a shareholder of Twin Ridge. Below is a summary chart outlining important similarities and differences in the corporate governance and shareholder rights associated with each of Twin Ridge and MergeCo according to applicable law and/or the organizational documents of Twin Ridge and MergeCo. You also should review the MergeCo Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (as the same will be in effect assuming approval of all of the charter proposals and upon consummation of the Transactions) attached as Annex C to this proxy statement/prospectus, as well as the corporate law of Ireland, including the ICA, to understand how these laws apply to MergeCo.

For so long as there are Preferred Shares in issue, the prior written consent of the Preferred Shareholders holding a majority of the Preferred Shares in issue (“Class A Majority”) shall be required before MergeCo can undertake certain matters (i.e., Structured Voting Rights Matters) as set out in MergeCo’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (“Structured Voting Rights”).

Resolutions put to the vote of a meeting shall be decided on a poll, which shall be taken in such manner as the chairperson of the meeting directs. Subject to the provisions of the MergeCo Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association and any rights or restrictions attached to any shares (including the formula for calculating the votes of the Preferred Shareholders), every shareholder of record present in person or by proxy shall have one vote for each share registered in his or her name.

Where the rights attaching to shares are set out in the Existing Organizational Documents, any changes to these rights will need to be effected by way of special resolution (passed by at least two-thirds of the votes cast by shareholders attending and voting at the meeting in person or by proxy) amending the Memorandum and Articles of Association. Additionally, the rights attaching to a particular class of shares may only be varied with the consent in writing of the holders of not less than two thirds of the issued shares of that class or with the approval of a resolution passed by a majority of not less than two thirds of the votes cast at a separate meeting of the holders of shares of that class.			Where the rights attaching to shares are set out in the MergeCo Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, any changes to these rights will need to be effected by way of (i) a special resolution (passed by 75% of the votes cast by shareholders attending and voting at the meeting) amending the MergeCo Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association; and (ii) a Class A Majority where there are Preferred Shares in issue. Additionally, the rights attaching to a particular class of shares may only be varied if (a) the holders of 75% of the nominal value of the issued shares of that class consent in writing to the variation, or (b) a special resolution, passed at a separate general meeting of the holders of that class, sanctions the variation.

The directors may issue preference shares from time to time and may fix the rights attaching to such preference shares. The rights attaching to the preference shares may (once such shares are in issue) be changed by way of a resolution passed by a majority of not less than two-thirds of the votes attending and voting at the relevant meeting or class meeting.			Subject to the Structured Voting Rights, the MergeCo board of directors is empowered to cause preferred shares to be issued from time to time and may fix the rights attaching to such preferred shares.

MergeCo’s ability to adopt a rights plan or to take other anti-takeover measures after the MergeCo board of directors has received an approach which may lead to an offer or has reason to believe an offer is, or may be, imminent would be restricted by the frustrating actions prohibition of the Irish Takeover Rules.

Shareholder Consent to Action without Meeting

The Cayman Islands Companies Act allows an ordinary resolution signed by all the shareholders entitled to vote on such resolution and authorized by the articles of association. The Existing Organizational Documents authorize such unanimous written resolutions.			As set out in the MergeCo Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, for so long as MergeCo has more than one shareholder, unanimous consent of the holders of MergeCo Ordinary Shares is required before the shareholders may act by way of written resolution in lieu of holding a general meeting.

Fiduciary Duties of Directors

Under Cayman Islands law, all of our directors owe three types of duties to us: (i) statutory duties, (ii) fiduciary duties, and (iii) common law duties. Cayman Islands law imposes a number of fiduciary duties on a director. A Cayman Islands director’s fiduciary duties are not codified; however, the courts of the Cayman Islands have held that a director owes the following fiduciary duties: (a) a duty to act in what the director bona fide considers to be in the best interests of the company; (b) a duty to exercise their powers for the purposes they were conferred; (c) a duty to avoid fettering his or her discretion in the future; (d) a duty to exercise powers fairly as between different sections of shareholders; (e) a duty to exercise independent judgment; and (f) a duty to avoid conflicts of interest. The common law duties owed by a director are those to act with skill, care and diligence that may reasonably be expected of a person carrying out the same functions as are carried out by that director in relation to the company and, also, to act with the skill, care and diligence in keeping with a standard of care commensurate with any particular skill they have which enables them to meet a higher standard than a director without those skills. Under the Existing Organizational Documents, so long as a director has disclosed any interests in a transaction entered into or to be entered into by the company to the board, he/she may: (i) vote on a matter relating to the transaction; (ii) attend a meeting of directors at which a matter relating to the transaction arises and be included among the directors present at the meeting for the purposes of a quorum; and sign a document on behalf of the company, or do any other thing in his capacity as a director, that relates to the transaction.			Directors and officers owe fiduciary duties at both common law and under statute. These duties include those listed below. A director shall: (a) act in good faith in what the director considers to be the interests of the company; (b) act honestly and responsibly in relation to the conduct of the affairs of the company; (c) act in accordance with the company’s constitution and exercise his or her powers only for the purposes allowed by law; (d) not use the company’s property, information or opportunities for his or her own or anyone else’s benefit unless expressly permitted by the company’s constitution or approved by a resolution of the company in general meeting; (e) not agree to restrict the director’s power to exercise an independent judgement, unless expressly permitted by the company’s constitution or approved by a resolution of the company in general meeting; (f) avoid any conflict between the director’s duties to the company and the director’s other (including personal) interests unless released from this duty by the company’s constitution or by resolution of the company in general meeting; (g) exercise the care, skill and diligence which would be exercised in the same circumstances by a reasonable person having both the knowledge and experience that may reasonably be expected of a person in the same position as the director and the knowledge and experiences that the director has; and (h) in addition to having a general duty to have regard to the interests of the company’s employees, have regard to the interests of its members. Under the MergeCo Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, so long as a director has disclosed to the MergeCo board of directors any interests he/she may have in a contract or proposed contract with MergeCo, he/she may vote in respect of any contract, appointment or arrangement in which he/she is interested and be counted in the quorum present at the meeting.

S-57

Corporate Law Differences
Cayman Islands			Ireland
Under the laws of the Cayman Islands, a transaction entered into by the company in respect of which a director is interested will not be voidable by the company where the members have approved or ratified the transaction in knowledge of the material facts of the interest of the director in the transaction, or if the company received fair value for the transaction.			Under the laws of Ireland, certain transactions entered into by MergeCo with a director will be voidable by MergeCo unless MergeCo’s shareholders have approved or ratified the transaction in knowledge of the material facts of the interest of the director in the transaction. Shareholder approval will be required even where MergeCo receives fair value for the transaction. There is a de minimis threshold in terms of transaction value that needs to be reached before shareholder approval is required.

Indemnification of Directors

The Existing Organizational Documents provides that, subject to certain limitations, Twin Ridge shall indemnify its directors and officers against all expenses, including legal fees, and against all judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement and reasonably incurred in connection with legal, administrative or investigative proceedings. Such indemnity does not apply in respect of any incurred by reason of such person’s own actual fraud, willful neglect or willful default.			The MergeCo Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association provide that, subject to certain limitations and so far as may be permitted by the ICA, each director and officer shall be entitled to be indemnified by MergeCo against all costs and expenses incurred in the execution and discharge of his or her duties, including any liability incurred in defending any proceedings relating to his or her office where judgment is given in his or her favor or the proceedings disposed of without any finding against him or her. It is expected that MergeCo will purchase and maintain directors and officers insurance on behalf of its directors, secretary and employees. A director shall not be indemnified in respect of any claim where he or she has been adjudged to be liable for fraud or dishonesty, unless otherwise directed by the court.

Committees

Under the Existing Organizational Documents, the directors of Twin Ridge may delegate any of their powers, authorities and discretions, including the power to sub-delegate, to any committee consisting of one or more of Twin Ridge’s directors and subject to any conditions that the Twin Ridge’s directors may impose. Furthermore, under Twin Ridge’s Memorandum and Articles of Association, the directors of Twin Ridge may establish any committees, local boards or agencies or appoint any person to be a manager or agent for managing the affairs of Twin Ridge and may appoint any person to be a member of such committees, local boards or agencies and subject to any conditions that the Twin Ridge’s directors may impose.			Under the MergeCo Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, the directors of MergeCo may establish one or more committees consisting in whole or in part of members of the MergeCo board of directors. The composition, function, power and obligations of any such committee will be determined by the MergeCo board of directors from time to time.

Limited Liability of Directors

Under Cayman Islands law, directors owe certain fiduciary duties to the company and may be liable where they act in breach of such duties.			Under the ICA, a director of MergeCo may be liable to MergeCo where such director acts in breach of certain of his or her fiduciary duties.

S-58

Dissenters’ Rights

The Cayman Islands Companies Act prescribes that: 238. (1) A member of a constituent company incorporated under this Act shall be entitled to payment of the fair value of that person’s shares upon dissenting from a merger or consolidation. 239. (1) No rights under Section 238 shall be available in respect of the shares of any class for which an open market exists on a recognized stock exchange or recognized interdealer quotation system at the expiry date of the period allowed for written notice of an election to dissent under Section 238(5), but this section shall not apply if the holders thereof are required by the terms of a plan of merger or consolidation pursuant to Section 233 or 237 to accept for such shares anything except — (a) shares of a surviving or consolidated company, or depository receipts in respect thereof; (b) shares of any other company, or depository receipts in respect thereof, which shares or depository receipts at the effective date of the merger or consolidation, are either listed on a national securities exchange or designated as a national market system security on a recognized interdealer quotation system or held of record by more than two thousand holders; (c) cash in lieu of fractional shares or fractional depository receipts described in paragraphs (a) and (b); or (d) any combination of the shares, depository receipts and cash in lieu of fractional shares or fractional depository receipts described in paragraphs (a), (b) and (c). Generally any other claims against a company by its shareholders must be based on the general laws of contract or tort applicable in the Cayman Islands or their individual rights as shareholders as established by the company’s Memorandum and Articles of Association.			Generally, under Irish law, shareholders of an Irish company do not have dissenters’ or appraisal rights. Under the European Communities (Cross-Border Mergers) Regulations 2008 governing the merger of an Irish public limited company such as MergeCo and a company incorporated in the European Economic Area, a shareholder (i) who voted against the special resolution approving a merger or (ii) of a company in which 90% of the shares are held by the other party to the merger, has the right to request that the company acquire his or her shares for cash at a price determined in accordance with the share exchange ratio set out in the transaction. Under the ICA, which governs the merger of Irish companies limited by shares, such as MergeCo, a shareholder of either of the merging companies who voted against the special resolution approving the merger, or any shareholder, other than the successor company, where the successor company held 90% or more of the voting shares in the transferor company, may, not later than 15 days after the shareholder meeting of the relevant merging company at which the merger was approved, request in writing that the successor company acquire his, her or its shares for cash.
Share Issues

Under the Existing Organizational Documents, Twin Ridge’s directors may allot, issue, grant options over or otherwise dispose of shares (including fractions of a share) with or without preferred, deferred or other rights or restrictions, whether in regard to dividends or other distributions, voting, return of capital or otherwise and to such persons, at such times and on such other terms as they think proper, and may also (subject to the Cayman Islands Companies Act and its Articles of Association) vary such rights.			Irish law generally provides that a board of directors may allot and issue shares (or rights to subscribe for or convert into shares) if authorized to do so by a company’s constitution or by an ordinary resolution. Such authorization may be granted for up to the maximum of a company’s authorized but unissued share capital and for a maximum period of five years, at which point it must be renewed by another ordinary resolution. The MergeCo Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association authorize the MergeCo board of directors to allot shares up to the

This authorization will need to be renewed by ordinary resolution (typically at the company’s annual general meeting) upon its expiration and at periodic intervals thereafter. Under Irish law, an allotment authority may be given for up to five years at each renewal, but governance considerations may result in renewals for shorter periods or for less than the maximum permitted number of shares being sought or approved.

			While Irish law also generally provides shareholders with pre-emptive rights when new shares are issued for cash, it is possible for the MergeCo Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, or for shareholders of MergeCo in a general meeting, to exclude such pre-emptive rights. The MergeCo Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association exclude pre-emptive rights until the fifth anniversary of the adoption of the MergeCo Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (i.e., five years after completion of the Transactions). This exclusion will need to be renewed by special resolution (typically at the company’s annual general meeting) upon its expiration and at periodic intervals thereafter. Under Irish law, a disapplication of pre-emption rights may be authorized for up to five years at each renewal, but governance considerations may result in renewals for shorter periods or for less than the maximum permitted number of unissued shares being sought or approved.

Share Repurchases and Redemptions

A Cayman Islands company may, if authorized to do so in its articles of association, issue shares which are to be redeemed or are liable to be redeemed at the option of the holder thereof or the company, or purchase its own shares, whether issued as redeemable or not. Shares may be purchased in the manner set out in the articles of association. If no such manner is provided for, approval of the members in general meeting must be obtained.			Shares may be redeemed or repurchased by MergeCo. Any share in MergeCo shall be deemed to be a redeemable share as and from the time of existence of an agreement or transaction between MergeCo and any person pursuant to which MergeCo will acquire a share or shares. Any acquisition by MergeCo of shares in MergeCo other than a surrender for nil value shall constitute a redemption. Any redemption or repurchase must be funded out of MergeCo’s distributable reserves or from the proceeds of a fresh issue of shares. Redemptions and repurchases are governed by the applicable provisions of the ICA and the MergeCo Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association.

			Preferred Shares shall be redeemable at the election of MergeCo for five years after the Initial Closing, and be required to be redeemed on the fifth anniversary of the Initial Closing.

Dividends

Subject to the Cayman Islands Companies Act and Twin Ridge’s Memorandum and Articles of Association, Twin Ridge’s directors may declare dividends at a time and amount they think fit if they are satisfied, on reasonable grounds, that, immediately after distribution of the dividend, the value of its assets will exceed its liabilities and Twin Ridge will be able to pay its debts as they fall due in the ordinary course of business. No dividend shall carry interest against Twin Ridge.			Subject to the right of the Preferred Shareholders to receive a quarterly dividend with a specified return in priority to other distributions, the directors may from time to time pay such dividends as appear justified by the profits of MergeCo, provided that dividends may only be made out of MergeCo’s distributable reserves and if the dividend will not cause MergeCo’s net assets to fall below the aggregate of its called up share capital and undistributable reserves (as such terms are calculated in accordance with the ICA). No dividend shall bear interest against MergeCo. The MergeCo board of directors may also recommend a dividend to be approved and declared by MergeCo shareholders at a general meeting, provided that no such dividend may exceed the amount recommended by the Board.

Rights of Non-resident or Foreign Shareholders and Disclosure of Substantial Shareholdings

There are no limitations imposed by the Existing Organizational Documents on the rights of non-resident or foreign shareholders to hold or exercise voting rights on Twin Ridge’s shares. There are no provisions in the Existing Organizational Documents governing the ownership threshold above which shareholder ownership must be disclosed.			There are no limitations imposed by the MergeCo Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association on the rights of non-resident or foreign shareholders to hold or exercise voting rights on MergeCo’s shares. Under the ICA, shareholders must notify MergeCo if, as a result of a transaction, the shareholder will become interested in 3% or more of MergeCo’s voting shares, or if as a result of a transaction a shareholder who was interested in 3% or more of MergeCo’s voting shares ceases to be so interested. Where a shareholder is interested in 3% or more of MergeCo’s voting shares, the shareholder must notify MergeCo of any alteration to his or her interest that brings his or her total through the nearest whole percentage number, whether an increase or a reduction. Where a person fails to comply with these notification requirements no right or interest of any kind whatsoever in respect of any shares in the company concerned, held by such person, shall be enforceable by such person, whether directly or indirectly, by action or legal proceeding. However, such person may apply to the High Court of Ireland to have the rights attaching to the shares concerned reinstated.

Shareholder Inspection of Books and Records

Under Cayman Islands law, shareholders have no right to inspect the books of the company but are entitled to an up-to-date copy of the memorandum and articles of association. Standard articles provide that directors may determine whether and to what extent the books of the company shall be open to inspection.			Under Irish law, MergeCo’s shareholders have the rights to: (i) receive a copy of MergeCo’s Memorandum and Articles of Association; (ii) inspect and obtain copies of the minutes of general meetings and resolutions of MergeCo; (iii) inspect and receive a copy of MergeCo’s register of members, register of directors and secretaries, register of directors’ interests, register of directors’ service contracts and memoranda and other statutory registers maintained by MergeCo; (iv) receive copies of balance sheets and directors’ and auditors’ reports that have previously been sent to MergeCo’s shareholders prior to an annual general meeting; and (v) receive balance sheets of any subsidiary of MergeCo that have previously been sent to MergeCo’s shareholders prior to an annual general meeting for the preceding 10 years.

Anti-Money Laundering Laws

In order to comply with legislation or regulations aimed at the prevention of money laundering, Twin Ridge is required to adopt and maintain anti-money laundering procedures, and may require investors to provide evidence to verify their identity. If any person in the Cayman Islands knows or suspects or has reasonable grounds for knowing or suspecting that another person is engaged in criminal conduct or money laundering or is involved with terrorism or terrorist financing and property and the information for that knowledge or suspicion came to their attention in the course of business in the regulated sector, or other trade, profession, business or employment, the person will be required to report such knowledge or suspicion to (i) the Financial Reporting Authority of the Cayman Islands, pursuant to the Proceeds of Crime Act (As Revised) of the Cayman Islands if the disclosure relates to criminal conduct or money laundering, or (ii) a police officer of the rank of constable or higher, or the Financial Reporting Authority, pursuant to the Terrorism Act (As Revised) of the Cayman Islands, if the disclosure relates to involvement with terrorism or terrorist financing and property. Such a report shall not			Under Irish law, the Criminal Justice (Money Laundering and Terrorist Financing) Act 2010 (as amended) (the “2010 Act”) sets down the law in relation to money laundering and the proceeds of crime and its application to MergeCo. MergeCo does not fall within the definition of a “designated person” under the 2010 Act and is therefore not obliged to report suspicious transactions in the same manner as a “designated person” but it can make a voluntary disclosure. MergeCo is required to hold “adequate, accurate and current” information on its beneficial owners. MergeCo must set up a beneficial ownership register, where a beneficial owner is a corporate or individual that directly (or indirectly through other companies) holds over 25% of the shares in MergeCo or otherwise directly (or indirectly through other companies) controls over 25% of MergeCo.

Governing Law and Jurisdiction

			The MergeCo Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association provide that the courts of Ireland are to have exclusive jurisdiction to settle any dispute arising out of the MergeCo Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association except that (unless MergeCo consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum) the federal district courts of the United States of America shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be the exclusive forum for the resolution of any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the Exchange Act or the Securities Act.

13.3 Notwithstanding the provisions of Article 13.2, to the extent that the Company does not have sufficient Available Profits to pay Class A Preferred Dividends in cash on a Class A Preferred Dividend Payment Date, Class A Preferred Dividends payable on that Class A Preferred Dividend Date shall be satisfied by making a Class A Preferred PIK Distribution.

13.4 The number of Class A Preferred PIK Shares to be issued on a Class A Preferred PIK Distribution shall be determined by dividing: (i) the relevant amount of Class A Preferred Dividends to be satisfied by the issue of Class A Preferred PIK Shares; by (ii) the Class A Preferred Share Amount, and rounding up the quotient. No fractional shares shall be issued on a Class A Preferred PIK Distribution.

13.5 Class A Preferred PIK Shares may be paid up out of Available Profits or, in the event the Company has insufficient Available Profits, Class A Preferred PIK Shares may be issued as bonus shares fully paid-up to at least their nominal value. For the purpose of calculating any amount of Class A Preferred Dividends or Class A Preferred Share Return referable to a Class A Preferred PIK Share, each Class A Preferred PIK Share shall, on issue, be deemed to have been paid-up to the Class A Preferred Share Amount on the relevant Class A Preferred Payment Date (or, if such Class A Preferred Payment Date is not a Business Day, the first Business Day thereafter).

13.6 Save with the prior written consent of a Class A Preferred Majority: (a) the Company may only issue Class A Preferred PIK Shares as expressly provided in this Article 13 and only in connection with the required quarterly dividends thereunder; and (b) the Company shall not issue any Class A Preferred PIK Shares (or any other Class A Preferred Shares) in connection with any other distribution made in respect of Class A Preferred Shares.

A-14

14. Priority Distributions: No distributions of cash or non-cash property shall be made with respect to any shares in the capital of the Company prior to the Class A Preferred Members having received the Class A Preferred Share Return with respect to all Class A Preferred Shares as contemplated in Articles 16, 17 and 18, below.

15. Liquidation Preference. On a return of capital on liquidation, a capital reduction or otherwise, the assets of the Company remaining after the payment of its liabilities which are available for distribution to its members, shall first be applied in paying to the Class A Preferred Members prior, and in preference, to the members holding any other class of shares in the capital of the Company, by reason of their ownership of such shares, with equal priority among the Class A Preferred Members, an amount in respect of the Class A Preferred Shares, in cash, until each Class A Preferred Member receives payment in respect of each Class A Preferred Share held by that member equal to the applicable Class A Preferred Share Return with respect to such Class A Preferred Share, provided that, if, upon such return of capital, the assets of the Company available for distribution among the members shall be insufficient to permit payment to the Class A Preferred Members of an amount in cash such that each Class A Preferred Member receives payment in respect of each Class A Preferred Share held by that member at the applicable Class A Preferred Share Return with respect to each Class A Preferred Share, then all of the assets of the Company available for distribution among the members shall be distributed to the Class A Preferred Members on a pro rata basis, such that each Class A Preferred Member receives that portion of the assets available for distribution as the proportion that the aggregate amount required to provide that Class A Preferred Member with the applicable Class A Preferred Share Return on all Class A Preferred Shares held by that member bears to the aggregate amount required to provide all Class A Preferred Members with the applicable Class A Preferred Share Return on all Class A Preferred Shares held by all such members. The provisions of this Article 15 shall apply mutatis mutandis to the proceeds of a sale on a Change of Control Transaction, which shall be paid to the Class A Preferred Members as consideration for their Class A Preferred Shares in priority to any payment to the members holding any other class of shares in the capital of the Company as if the proceeds of such Change of Control Transaction constituted the assets of the Company available for distribution to the Company’s members.

16. Redemption of Class A Preferred Shares at the Election of the Company

16.1 Prior to the fifth anniversary of the Initial Closing Date, the Company may, upon prior written notice (a “Class A Preferred Redemption Notice”) to each applicable Class A Preferred Member, redeem all or any portion of the issued Class A Preferred Shares at its election, in each case, upon payment in full of the Class A Preferred Share Return of such Class A Preferred Shares, as of the applicable Class A Preferred Optional Redemption Date, for each Class A Preferred Share redeemed (an “Early Company Call Option Election”). The Class A Preferred Redemption Notice shall specify the number of Class A Preferred Shares that will be redeemed, the date on which the Class A Preferred Shares will be redeemed pursuant to this Article 16 (which date must be a Business Day and shall be no earlier than thirty (30) days and no later than forty five (45) days, in each case, following delivery of the Class A Preferred Redemption Notice) (the “Class A Preferred Optional Redemption Date”), and the Class A Preferred Share Return as of the Class A Preferred Optional Redemption Date with respect to each Class A Preferred Share that the Company will redeem, including details and reasonable supporting documentation with respect to such calculation.

16.2 At any time prior to the Class A Preferred Optional Redemption Date, a Class A Preferred Majority shall have the right to provide notice to the Company of any disagreement regarding the calculation of the Class A Preferred Share Return as of the Class A Preferred Optional Redemption Date (a “Class A Preferred Share Return Dispute Notice”), which Class A Preferred Share Return Dispute Notice shall include such Class A Preferred Majority's calculation of the Class A Preferred Share Return and reasonable supporting documentation regarding the same.

16.3 Following receipt of any such Class A Preferred Share Return Dispute Notice by the Company, the Class A Preferred Majority that provided the Class A Preferred Share Return Dispute Notice and the Company shall negotiate in good faith to reach agreement regarding the amount of such Class A Preferred Share Return.

16.4 If the Company and the Class A Preferred Majority that provided the Class A Preferred Share Return Dispute Notice are unable to resolve all such disputed items within ten (10) Business Days following the Company’s receipt of the Class A Preferred Share Return Dispute Notice, then all items that have not been resolved on a mutually agreeable basis shall be submitted to a Designated Valuation Firm mutually acceptable to the Company and such Class A Preferred Majority for resolution and such Designated Valuation Firm shall be instructed to issue its determination within ten (10) Business Days after the submission of such dispute;

A-15

provided, however, that if the Company and such Class A Preferred Majority are unable to agree on a Designated Valuation Firm within five (5) Business Days, the Designated Valuation Firm shall be designated by the Independent Directors. The determination by such Designated Valuation Firm shall be binding on the Company and all Class A Preferred Members. All costs and expenses relating to the work performed by the Designated Valuation Firm shall be borne by the Class A Preferred Members and the Company based on the inverse of the percentage that the Designated Valuation Firm’s determination bears to the total amount of the total items in dispute as originally submitted to the Designated Valuation Firm, which proportionate allocations shall also be determined by the Designated Valuation Firm at the time it renders its determination on the merits of the matters in dispute (such pro rata allocations of costs and expenses of the Designated Valuation Firm, the “Designated Valuation Firm Cost Allocations”).

16.5 If, all such disputed items have not been resolved as of the Class A Preferred Optional Redemption Date, the consummation of such redemption shall be deemed to be tolled until such dispute has been resolved and the Class A Preferred Share Return shall continue to accrue during such period until the date on which the Company pays such amount; provided, however, that if such redemption is initially contemplated to concur at the closing of a Change of Control Transaction then the Company may close such Change of Control Transaction and put an amount in escrow equal to the Class A Preferred Share Return amount proposed by the Class A Preferred Majority that provided the Class A Preferred Share Return Dispute Notice (taking into account the tolling and continued accrual of the Class A Preferred Share Return during the pendency of such dispute), with such amount to be released by such Class A Preferred Majority and the Company jointly, or in accordance with the determination of the Designated Valuation Firm, upon resolution of such dispute, to the Class A Preferred Members and/or the Company in accordance with the final resolution of such dispute.

16.6 On the Class A Preferred Optional Redemption Date (or such later date as contemplated in the immediately preceding sentence), the Company shall pay in cash to each Class A Preferred Member the applicable Class A Preferred Share Return with respect to each such Class A Preferred Share redeemed. Any such Redemption by the Company of Class A Preferred Shares shall be pro rata as among the Class A Preferred Members in respect of the Class A Preferred Shares that are so redeemed as set forth in the applicable Class A Preferred Redemption Notice. Upon payment in full and in cash of the Class A Preferred Share Return with respect to each redeemed Class A Preferred Share, such redeemed Class A Preferred Share will cease to be outstanding.

17. Mandatory Redemption of Class A Preferred Shares

17.1 The Company shall redeem all, but not less than all, of the outstanding Class A Preferred Shares upon the fifth anniversary of the Initial Closing Date (a “Mandatory Class A Redemption Event”) to the extent all of the Class A Preferred Shares have not already been redeemed as of such time. The Company shall effect such redemption by paying, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, to each Class A Preferred member in respect of each Class A Preferred Share held by such member an amount in cash equal to the Class A Preferred Share Return with respect to such Class A Preferred Share on the date when such Mandatory Class A Redemption Event occurs unless it occurs on a date that is not a Business Day in which case such redemption shall occur on the next Business Day (the date on which the Company is required to effect such redemption, the “Mandatory Class A Redemption Date”); provided that the Company shall provide copies of final documentation in connection therewith, which shall include details and reasonable supporting documentation of the Company’s calculation of the Class A Preferred Share Return as of the Mandatory Class A Redemption Date. Upon the payment of the applicable Class A Preferred Share Return with respect to each Class A Preferred Share pursuant to this Article 17 in full and in cash, the Class A Preferred Shares will cease to be outstanding; provided, however, that if there is any disagreement between the Company and a Class A Preferred Majority regarding the amount of the Class A Preferred Share Return as of the Mandatory Class A Redemption Date, such Class A Preferred Majority and the Company shall negotiate in good faith to reach agreement regarding the amount of the Class A Preferred Share Return and, in any event, the Class A Preferred Shares shall not be deemed to have been redeemed until the amount of the Class A Preferred Share Return (which shall continue to accrue during the pendency of such dispute) has been finally determined (either as agreed by such Class A Preferred Majority and the Company or otherwise by submitting the dispute to a Designated Valuation Firm ) and paid in full and in cash to the Class A Preferred Members; provided, however, that if such Redemption is initially contemplated to concur at the closing of a Change of Control Transaction then the Company may close such Change of Control Transaction and put an amount in escrow equal to the amount of the Class A Preferred Share Return proposed

A-16

by a Class A Preferred Majority (taking into account the tolling and continued accrual of the Class A Preferred Share Return during the pendency of such dispute), with such amount to be released by such Class A Preferred Majority and the Company jointly, or in accordance with the determination of a Designated Valuation Firm, upon resolution of such dispute, to the Class A Preferred Members and/or the Company in accordance with the final resolution of such dispute.

17.2 If such a dispute has been submitted to a Designated Valuation Firm, the Designated Valuation Firm shall be instructed to issue its determination within ten (10) Business Days after the submission of such dispute; provided, however, that if the Company and a Class A Preferred Majority are unable to agree on a Designated Valuation Firm within five (5) Business Days, the Designated Valuation Firm shall be designated by the Independent Directors.

17.3 The determination by such Designated Valuation Firm shall be binding on the Company and all Class A Preferred Members. All costs and expenses relating to the work performed by the Designated Valuation Firm shall be borne by the Class A Preferred Members and the Company based on the Designated Valuation Firm Cost Allocations.

17.4 On the Mandatory Class A Redemption Date (or such later date as contemplated in the immediately preceding sentence), the Company shall pay in cash to each Class A Preferred Member the applicable Class A Preferred Share Return with respect to each such Class A Preferred Share redeemed. Upon payment in full and in cash of the Class A Preferred Share Return with respect to each redeemed Class A Preferred Share, such redeemed Class A Preferred Share will cease to be outstanding.

18. Deemed Redemption of Class A Preferred Shares Deemed Redemption. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary: (i) a Class A Preferred Share shall be deemed redeemed upon the applicable Class A Preferred Member holding the same receiving payments pursuant to these Articles in respect of such Class A Preferred Share in cash in an aggregate amount equal to the applicable Class A Preferred Share Return with respect to such Class A Preferred Share; and (ii) upon the redemption of any Class A Preferred Share in full in cash for the applicable Class A Preferred Share Return, such Class A Preferred Share shall cease to be issued.

RIGHTS ATTACHING TO DEFERRED SHARES

19. The Deferred Shares shall have the rights and privileges and be subject to the restrictions set out in this Article 19:

19.1 the Deferred Shares are non-voting shares and do not convey upon the holder the right to be paid a dividend or to receive notice of or to attend, vote or speak at a general meeting;

19.2 the Deferred Shares confer the right on a return of capital, on a winding-up or otherwise, only to the repayment of the nominal value paid up on the Deferred Shares after repayment of the nominal value of the Ordinary Shares; and

19.3 any Director (the “Agent”) is appointed the attorney of the holder of a Deferred Share, with an irrevocable instruction to the Agent to execute all or any forms of transfer and/or renunciation and/or surrender and/or other documents in the Agent’s discretion in relation to the Deferred Shares in favour of the Company or as it may direct and to deliver such forms of transfer and/or renunciation and/or surrender and/or other documents together with any certificate(s) and/or other documents for registration and to do all such other acts and things as may in the reasonable opinion of the Agent be necessary or expedient for the purpose of, or in connection with, the surrender of the Deferred Shares, the purchase by the Company of the Deferred Shares for nil consideration or such other consideration as the Board may determine and to vest the said Deferred Shares in the Company.

20. Without prejudice to any special rights conferred on the members of any existing shares or class of shares but subject to the provisions of the Act and these Articles, including Article 177, any share may be issued with such rights or restrictions as the Company may by ordinary resolution determine.

ALLOTMENT AND ACQUISITION OF SHARES

21. The following provisions shall apply:

21.1 Subject to the provisions of these Articles including Article 177, the shares shall be at the disposal of the Directors, and they may (subject to the provisions of the Act) allot, grant options over or otherwise dispose

A-17

of them to such persons, on such terms and conditions and at such times as they may consider to be in the best interests of the Company and its members, but so that no share shall be issued at a discount and so that, in the case of shares offered to the public for subscription, the amount payable on application on each share shall not be less than one-quarter of the nominal amount of the share and the whole of any premium thereon.

21.2 Without prejudice to the generality of the powers conferred on the Directors by other paragraphs of these Articles, but subject to the provisions of Article 177, and subject to any requirement to obtain the approval of the members under any laws, regulations or the rules of any Exchange, the Directors may grant from time to time options to subscribe for the unallotted shares in the capital of the Company to Directors and other persons in the service or employment of the Company or any subsidiary or associate company of the Company on such terms and subject to such conditions as may be approved from time to time by the Directors or by any committee thereof appointed by the Directors for the purpose of such approval and on the terms and conditions required to obtain the approval of any statutory authority in any jurisdiction.

21.3 Subject to the provisions of these Articles, including Article 177, the Directors are hereby generally and unconditionally authorised to exercise all the powers of the Company to allot relevant securities within the meaning of section 1021 of the Act. The maximum amount of relevant securities which may be allotted under the authority hereby conferred shall be the amount of the authorised but unissued share capital of the Company at the Adoption Date. The authority hereby conferred shall expire on the date which is five (5) years after the Adoption Date unless and to the extent that such authority is renewed, revoked or extended prior to such date. The Company may before such expiry make an offer or agreement which would or might require relevant securities to be allotted after such expiry and the Directors may allot relevant securities in pursuance of such offer or agreement, notwithstanding that the authority hereby conferred has expired.

21.4 Subject to the provisions of these Articles, including Article 177, the Directors are hereby empowered pursuant to sections 1022 and 1023 of the Act to allot equity securities (within the meaning of the said section 1023) for cash pursuant to the authority conferred by Article 21.3 as if section 1022(1) of the Act did not apply to any such allotment. The authority conferred by this Article 21.4 shall expire on the date which is five (5) years after the Adoption Date, unless previously renewed, varied or revoked; provided that the Company may before the expiry of such authority make an offer or agreement which would or might require equity securities to be allotted after such expiry and the Directors may allot equity securities in pursuance of such an offer or agreement as if the power conferred by this Article 21.4 had not expired.

21.5 The Company may issue permissible letters of allotment (as defined by section 1019 of the Act) to the extent permitted by the Act.

21.6 Unless otherwise determined by the Directors or the rights attaching to or by the terms of issue of any particular shares, or to the extent required by the Act, any Exchange, depository or any operator of any clearance or settlement system, no person whose name is entered as a member in the Register shall be entitled to receive a share certificate for any shares of any class held by him or her in the capital of the Company (nor on transferring part of a holding, to a certificate for the balance).

21.7 Any share certificate, if issued, shall specify the number of shares in respect of which it is issued and the amount paid thereon or the fact that they are fully paid, as the case may be, and may otherwise be in such form as shall be determined by the Directors. Such certificates may be under seal. All certificates for shares in the capital of the Company shall be consecutively numbered or otherwise identified and shall specify the shares in the capital of the Company to which they relate. The name and address of the person to whom the shares represented thereby are issued, with the number of shares and date of issue, shall be entered in the Register. All certificates surrendered to the Company for transfer shall be cancelled and no new certificate shall be issued until the former certificate for a like number of shares in the capital of the Company shall have been surrendered and cancelled. The Directors may authorise certificates to be issued with the seal and authorised signature(s) affixed by some method or system of mechanical process. In respect of a share or shares in the capital of the Company held jointly by several persons, the Company shall not be bound to issue a certificate or certificates to each such person, and the issue and delivery of a certificate or certificates to one of several joint holders shall be sufficient delivery to all such holders. If a share certificate is defaced, worn out, lost or destroyed, it may be renewed on such terms (if any) as to evidence and indemnity and on the payment of such expenses reasonably incurred by the Company in investigating such evidence, as the Directors may prescribe, and, in the case of defacement or wearing out, upon delivery of the old certificate.

A-18

22. The Company:

22.1 may give financial assistance for the purpose of an acquisition of its shares or, where the Company is a subsidiary, its holding company where permitted by sections 82 and 1043 of the Act, and

22.2 is authorised, for the purposes of section 105(4)(a) of the Act, but subject to section 1073 of the Act, to acquire its own shares.

23. Subject to the provisions of these Articles, including Article 177, the Directors (and any committee established under Article 196 and so authorised by the Directors and any person so authorised by the Directors or such committee) may:

23.1 allot, issue, grant options over and otherwise dispose of shares in the Company; and

23.2 exercise the Company's powers under Article 21,

on such terms and subject to such conditions as they think fit, subject only to the provisions of the Act and these Articles.

24. Unless the Board determines otherwise, any share in the capital of the Company shall be deemed to be a Redeemable Share on, and from the time of, the existence or creation of an agreement, transaction or trade between the Company and any person (who may or may not be a member) pursuant to which the Company acquires or will acquire a share in the capital of the Company, or an interest in shares in the capital of the Company, from the relevant person, save for an acquisition for nil consideration pursuant to section 102(1)(a) of the Act. In these circumstances, the acquisition of such shares by the Company, save where acquired for nil consideration in accordance with the Act, shall constitute the redemption of a Redeemable Share in accordance with Chapter 6 of Part 3 of the Act. No resolution, whether special or otherwise, shall be required to be passed to deem any share in the capital of the Company a Redeemable Share.

VARIATION OF CLASS RIGHTS

25. Without prejudice to the authority conferred on the Directors pursuant to Article 9 to issue Preferred Shares in the capital of the Company, where the shares in the Company are divided into different classes, the rights attaching to a class of shares may only be varied or abrogated if (a) the holders of 75% in nominal value of the issued shares of that class consent in writing to the variation, or (b) a special resolution, passed at a separate general meeting of the holders of that class, sanctions the variation. The quorum at any such separate general meeting, other than an Adjourned Meeting, shall be two persons holding or representing by proxy at least one-third in nominal value of the issued shares of the class in question and the quorum at an Adjourned Meeting shall be one person holding or representing by proxy shares of the class in question or that person’s proxy. The rights conferred upon the holders of any class of shares issued with preferred or other rights shall not, unless otherwise expressly provided by the terms of issue of the shares of that class, be deemed to be varied by a purchase or redemption by the Company of its own shares or by the creation or issue of further shares ranking pari passu therewith or subordinate thereto.

26. The issue, redemption or purchase of the Class A Preferred Shares shall not constitute a variation of rights of the holders of Preferred Shares, any class or series of Preferred Shares or the Ordinary Shares.

27. The issue, redemption or purchase of any of the Preferred Shares or any class or series of Preferred Shares shall not constitute a variation of the rights of the holders of Ordinary Shares.

28. The issue, redemption or purchase of Preferred Shares or any class or series of Preferred Shares which rank pari passu with, or junior to, any existing Preferred Shares or class of Preferred Shares shall not constitute a variation of the existing Preferred Shares or class of Preferred Shares.

29. The rights conferred upon the holders of the shares of any class issued with preferred or other rights shall not, unless otherwise expressly provided by the terms of issue of the shares of that class, be deemed to be varied by the creation or issue of further shares ranking pari passu therewith.

TRUSTS NOT RECOGNISED

30. Except as required by law, no person shall be recognised by the Company as holding any share upon any trust, and the Company shall not be bound by or be compelled in any way to recognise (even when having notice thereof) any equitable, contingent, future or partial interest in any share or any interest in any fractional part of a share

A-19

or (except only as by these Articles or by law otherwise provided) any other rights in respect of any share except an absolute right to the entirety thereof in the member. This shall not preclude (i) the Company from requiring the members or a transferee of shares to furnish the Company with information as to the beneficial ownership of any share when such information is reasonably required by the Company, or (ii) the Directors, where they consider it appropriate, providing the information given to the members of shares to the holders of depositary instruments in such shares.

CALLS ON SHARES

31. The Directors may from time to time make calls upon the members in respect of any consideration unpaid on their shares in the Company (whether on account of the nominal value of the shares or by way of premium), provided that in the case where the conditions of allotment or issuance of shares provide for the payment of consideration in respect of such shares at fixed times, the Directors shall only make calls in accordance with such conditions.

32. Each member shall (subject to receiving at least thirty days’ notice specifying the time or times and place of payment, or such lesser or greater period of notice provided in the conditions of allotment or issuance of the shares) pay to the Company, at the time or times and place so specified, the amount called on the shares.

33. A call may be revoked or postponed, as the Directors may determine.

34. Subject to the conditions of allotment or issuance of the shares, a call shall be deemed to have been made at the time when the resolution of the Directors authorising the call was passed and may be required to be paid by instalments if specified in the call.

35. The joint holders of a share shall be jointly and severally liable to pay all calls in respect of it.

36. If the consideration called in respect of a share or in respect of a particular instalment is not paid in full before or on the day appointed for payment of it, the person from whom the sum is due shall pay interest in cash on the unpaid value from the day appointed for payment of it to the time of actual payment of such rate, not exceeding five per cent per annum or such other rate as may be specified by an order under section 2(7) of the Act, as the Directors may determine, but the Directors may waive payment of such interest wholly or in part.

37. Any consideration which, by the terms of issue of a share, becomes payable on allotment or issuance or at any fixed date (whether on account of the nominal value of the share or by way of premium) shall, for the purposes of these Articles, be deemed to be a call duly made and payable on the date on which, by the terms of issue, that consideration becomes payable, and in the case of non-payment of such a consideration, all the relevant provisions of these Articles as to payment of interest and expenses, forfeiture or otherwise, shall apply as if such consideration had become payable by virtue of a call duly made and notified.

38. The Directors may, on the issue of shares, differentiate between the holders of different classes as to the amount of calls to be paid and the times of payment.

39. The Directors may, if they think fit:

(a) receive from any member willing to advance such consideration, all or any part of the consideration uncalled and unpaid upon any shares held by him or her; and/or

(b) pay, upon all or any of the consideration so advanced (until the amount concerned would, but for such advance, become payable) interest at such rate (not exceeding, unless the Company in a general meeting otherwise directs, five per cent per annum or such other rate as may be specified by an order under section 2(7) of the Act) as may be agreed upon between the Directors and the member paying such consideration in advance.

40. The Company may:

(a) acting by its Directors, make arrangements on the issue of shares for a difference between the members in the amounts and times of payment of calls on their shares;

(b) acting by its Directors, accept from any member the whole or a part of the amount remaining unpaid on any shares held by him or her, although no part of that amount has been called up;

(c) acting by its Directors and subject to the Act, pay a dividend in proportion to the amount paid up on each share where a larger amount is paid up on some shares than on others; and

A-20

(d) by special resolution determine that any portion of its share capital which has not been already called up shall not be capable of being called up except in the event and for the purposes of the Company being wound up; upon the Company doing so, that portion of its share capital shall not be capable of being called up except in that event and for those purposes.

LIEN

41. The Company shall have a first and paramount lien on every share (not being a fully paid share) for all consideration (whether immediately payable or not) called, or payable at a fixed time, in respect of that share.

42. The Directors may at any time declare any share in the Company to be wholly or in part exempt from Article 41.

43. The Company’s lien on a share shall extend to all dividends payable on it.

44. The Company may sell, in such manner as the Directors think fit, any shares on which the Company has a lien, but no sale shall be made unless (i) a sum in respect of which the lien exists is immediately payable; and (ii) the following conditions are satisfied:

44.1 a notice in writing, stating and demanding payment of such part of the amount in respect of which the lien exists as is immediately payable, has been given to the registered holder of the share for the time being, or the person entitled thereto by reason of his or her death or bankruptcy; and

44.2 a period of 14 days after the date of giving of that notice has expired.

45. The following provisions apply in relation to a sale referred to in Article 44:

45.1 to give effect to any such sale, the Directors may authorise some person to transfer the shares sold to the purchaser of them;

45.2 the purchaser shall be registered as the holder of the shares comprised in any such transfer;

45.3 the purchaser shall not be bound to see to the application of the purchase consideration, nor shall his or her title to the shares be affected by any irregularity or invalidity in the proceedings in reference to the sale; and

45.4 the proceeds of the sale shall be received by the Company and applied in payment of such part of the amount in respect of which the lien exists as is immediately payable, and the residue, if any, shall (subject to a like lien for sums not immediately payable as existed upon the shares before the sale) be paid to the person entitled to the shares at the date of the sale.

FORFEITURE

46. If a member of the Company fails to pay any call or instalment of a call on the day appointed for payment of it, the Directors may, at any time thereafter during such time as any part of the call or instalment remains unpaid, serve a notice on the member requiring payment of so much of the call or instalment as is unpaid, together with any interest which may have accrued.

47. The notice referred to in Article 46 shall:

47.1 specify a further day (not earlier than the expiration of 14 days after the date of service of the notice) on or before which the payment required by the notice is to be made; and

47.2 state that, if the amount concerned is not paid by the day so specified, the shares in respect of which the call was made will be liable to be forfeited.

48. If the requirements of the notice referred to in Article 47 are not complied with, any share in respect of which the notice has been served may at any time after the day so specified (but before, should it occur, the payment required by the notice has been made) be forfeited by a resolution of the Directors to that effect.

49. On the trial or hearing of any action for the recovery of any money due for any call, it shall be sufficient to prove that the name of the member sued is entered in the Register as the holder, or one of the holders, of the shares in the capital of the Company in respect of which such debt accrued, that the resolution making the call is duly recorded in the minute book and that notice of such call was duly given to the member sued, in pursuance of these

A-21

Articles, and it shall not be necessary to prove the appointment of the Directors who made such call nor any other matters whatsoever, but the proof of the matters aforesaid shall be conclusive evidence of the debt.

50. A forfeited share may be sold or otherwise disposed of on such terms and in such manner as the Directors think fit, and at any time before a sale or disposition the forfeiture may be cancelled on such terms as the Directors think fit.

51. A person whose shares have been forfeited shall cease to be a member of the Company in respect of the forfeited shares, but shall, notwithstanding, remain liable to pay to the Company all consideration which, at the date of forfeiture, were payable by him or her to the Company in respect of the shares, but his or her liability shall cease if and when the Company shall have received payment in full of all such consideration in respect of the shares.

52. A statement in writing that the maker of the statement is a Director or the Company Secretary, and that a share in the Company has been duly forfeited on a date stated in the statement, shall be conclusive evidence of the facts stated in it as against all persons claiming to be entitled to the share.

53. The following provisions apply in relation to a sale or other disposition of a share referred to in Article 50:

53.1 the Company may receive the consideration, if any, given for the share on the sale or other disposition of it and may execute a transfer of the share in favour of the person to whom the share is sold or otherwise disposed of (the “disponee”);

53.2 upon such execution, the disponee shall be registered as the holder of the share; and

53.3 the disponee shall not be bound to see to the application of the purchase consideration, if any, nor shall his or her title to the share be affected by any irregularity or invalidity in the proceedings in reference to the forfeiture, sale or disposal of the share.

54. The provisions of these Articles as to forfeiture shall apply in the case of non-payment of any sum which, by the terms of issue of a share in the capital of the Company, becomes payable at a fixed time, whether on account of the nominal value of the share in the capital of the Company or by way of premium, as if the same had been payable by virtue of a call duly made and notified.

55. The Directors may accept the surrender of any share in the capital of the Company which the Directors have resolved to have been forfeited upon such terms and conditions as may be agreed and, subject to any such terms and conditions, a surrendered share in the capital of the Company shall be treated as if it has been forfeited.

VARIATION OF COMPANY CAPITAL

56. Subject to the provisions of these Articles, including Article 177, the Company may, by ordinary resolution and in accordance with section 83 of the Act, do any one or more of the following, from time to time:

56.1 consolidate and divide all or any of its classes of shares into shares of a larger nominal value than its existing shares;

56.2 subdivide its classes of shares, or any of them, into shares of a smaller nominal value, so however, that in the subdivision the proportion between the amount paid and the amount, if any, unpaid on each reduced share shall be the same as it was in the case of the share from which the reduced share is derived;

56.3 increase the nominal value of any of its shares by the addition to them of any un-denominated capital;

56.4 reduce the nominal value of any of its shares by the deduction from them of any part of that value, subject to the crediting of the amount of the deduction to un-denominated capital, other than the share premium account;

56.5 without prejudice or limitation to Articles 96 to 101 and the powers conferred on the Directors thereby, convert any un-denominated capital into shares for allotment as bonus shares to holders of existing shares;

56.6 increase its share capital by new shares of such amount as it thinks expedient; or

56.7 cancel shares of its share capital which, at the date of the passing of the resolution, have not been taken or agreed to be taken by any person, and diminish the amount of its share capital by the amount of the shares so cancelled.

A-22

57. Subject to the provisions of these Articles, the Company may:

57.1 without prejudice to Article 24, by special resolution, and subject to the provisions of the Act governing the variation of rights attached to classes of shares and the amendment of these Articles, convert any of its shares into Redeemable Shares; or

57.2 by special resolution, and subject to the provisions of the Act (or as otherwise required or permitted by applicable law) alter or add to the Memorandum with respect to any objects, powers or other matters specified therein or alter or add to these Articles.

REDUCTION OF COMPANY CAPITAL

58. Subject to the provisions of these Articles, including Articles 15 and 177, the Company may, in accordance with the provisions of sections 84 to 87 of the Act, reduce its company capital in any way it thinks expedient and, without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, may thereby:

58.1 extinguish or reduce the liability on any of its shares in respect of share capital not paid up;

58.2 either with or without extinguishing or reducing liability on any of its shares, cancel any paid up company capital which is lost or unrepresented by available assets; or

58.3 either with or without extinguishing or reducing liability on any of its shares, pay off any paid up company capital which is in excess of the wants of the Company.

Unless the special resolution provides otherwise, a reserve arising from the reduction of company capital is to be treated for all purposes as a realised profit in accordance with section 117(9) of the Act. Nothing in this Article 58 shall, however, prejudice or limit the Company’s ability to perform or engage in any of the actions described in section 83(1) of the Act by way of ordinary resolution only.

TRANSFER OF SHARES

59. Subject to the Act and to the provisions of these Articles as may be applicable, any member may transfer all or any of his shares (of any class) by an instrument of transfer in the usual common form or in any other form which the Board may from time to time approve. The instrument of transfer may be endorsed on the certificate.

60. The instrument of transfer of a share shall be signed by or on behalf of the transferor and, if the share is not fully paid, by or on behalf of the transferee. The transferor shall be deemed to remain the holder of the share until the name of the transferee is entered in the Register in respect of it. All instruments of transfer may be retained by the Company.

61. Save in the case of a transfer of Class A Preferred Shares, the instrument of transfer of any share may be executed for and on behalf of the transferor by the Company Secretary or any other party designated by the Board for such purpose, and the Company Secretary or any other party designated by the Board for such purpose shall be deemed to have been irrevocably appointed agent for the transferor of such share or shares with full power to execute, complete and deliver in the name of and on behalf of the transferor of such share or shares all such transfers of shares held by the members in the share capital of the Company. Any document which records the name of the transferor, the name of the transferee, the class and number of shares agreed to be transferred, the date of the agreement to transfer shares and the price per share, shall, once executed by the transferor or, other than in the case of a transfer of Class A Preferred Shares, the Company Secretary or any other party designated by the Board for such purpose as agent for the transferor, be deemed to be a proper instrument of transfer for the purposes of the Act. The transferor shall be deemed to remain the member holding the share until the name of the transferee is entered on the Register in respect thereof, and neither the title of the transferee nor the title of the transferor shall be affected by any irregularity or invalidity in the proceedings in reference to the sale should the Directors so determine.

62. Subject to the Act, the Company, at its absolute discretion, may, or may procure that a subsidiary of the Company shall, pay Irish stamp duty arising on a transfer of shares on behalf of the transferee of such shares of the Company. If stamp duty resulting from the transfer of shares in the Company which would otherwise be payable by the transferee is paid by the Company or any subsidiary of the Company on behalf of the transferee, then in those circumstances, the Company shall, on its behalf or on behalf of its subsidiary (as the case may be), be entitled to (i) reimbursement of the stamp duty from the transferee, (ii) set-off the stamp duty against any dividends payable to the transferee of those shares and (iii) to the extent permitted by section 1042 of the Act, claim a first and paramount

A-23

lien on the shares on which stamp duty has been paid by the Company or its subsidiary for the amount of stamp duty paid. The Company’s lien shall extend to all dividends paid on those shares.

63. The Directors shall have power to permit any class of shares to be held in uncertificated form and to implement any arrangements they think fit for such evidencing and transfer which accord with such regulations and in particular shall, where appropriate, be entitled to disapply or modify all or part of the provisions in these Articles with respect to the requirement for written instruments of transfer and share certificates (if any), in order to give effect to such regulations.

64. The Board may, in its absolute discretion and without assigning any reason for its decision, decline to register any transfer of any share which is not a fully-paid share. The Board may also decline to register any transfer if:

64.1 the instrument of transfer is not duly stamped, if required, and lodged at the Office or any other place as the Board may from time to time specify for the purpose, accompanied by the certificate (if any) for the shares to which it relates and such other evidence as the Board may reasonably require to show the right of the transferor to make the transfer;

64.2 the instrument of transfer is in respect of more than one class of share;

64.3 the instrument of transfer is in favour of more than four persons jointly;

64.4 it is not satisfied that all applicable consents, authorisations, permissions or approvals of any governmental body or agency in Ireland or any other applicable jurisdiction required to be obtained under relevant law prior to such transfer have been obtained; or

64.5 it is not satisfied that the transfer would not violate the terms of any agreement to which the Company (or any of its subsidiaries) and the transferor are party or subject.

65. Subject to any directions of the Board from time to time in force, the Company Secretary or any other party designated by the Board for such purpose may exercise the powers and discretions of the Board under Article 64, Article 88, Article 95 and Article 97.

66. If the Board declines to register a transfer it shall, within one month after the date on which the instrument of transfer was lodged, send to the transferee notice of such refusal.

67. No fee shall be charged by the Company for registering any transfer or for making any entry in the Register concerning any other document relating to or affecting the title to any share (except that the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed on it in connection with such transfer or entry).

TRANSMISSION OF SHARES

68. In the case of the death of a member, the survivor or survivors, where the deceased was a joint holder, and the personal representatives of the deceased where he or she was a sole holder, shall be the only persons recognised by the Company as having any title to his or her interest in the shares.

69. Nothing in Article 68 shall release the estate of a deceased joint holder from any liability in respect of any share which had been jointly held by him or her with other persons.

70. Any person becoming entitled to a share in consequence of the death or bankruptcy of a member may, upon such evidence being produced as may from time to time properly be required by the Directors and subject to Article 71, elect either: (a) to be registered himself or herself as holder of the share; or (b) to have some person nominated by him or her (being a person who consents to being so registered) registered as the transferee thereof.

71. The Directors shall, in either of those cases, have the same right to decline or suspend registration as they would have had in the case of a transfer of the share by that member before his or her death or bankruptcy, as the case may be.

72. If the person becoming entitled as mentioned in Article 70: (a) elects to be registered himself or herself, the person shall furnish to the Company a notice in writing signed by him or her stating that he or she so elects; or (b) elects to have another person registered, the person shall testify his or her election by executing to that other person a transfer of the share.

A-24

73. All the limitations, restrictions and provisions of Articles 68 to 72 shall be applicable to a notice or transfer referred to in Article 72 as if the death or bankruptcy of the member concerned had not occurred and the notice or transfer were a transfer signed by that member.

74. Subject to Article 75 and Article 76, a person becoming entitled to a share by reason of the death or bankruptcy of the holder shall be entitled to the same dividends and other advantages to which he or she would be entitled if he or she were the registered holder of the share.

75. A person referred to in Article 74 shall not, before being registered as a member in respect of the share, be entitled in respect of it to exercise any right conferred by membership in relation to meetings of the Company.

76. The Directors may at any time serve a notice on any such person requiring the person to make the election provided for by Article 70 and, if the person does not make that election (and proceed to do, consequent on that election, whichever of the things mentioned in Article 72 is appropriate) within ninety days after the date of service of the notice, the Directors may thereupon withhold payment of all dividends, bonuses or other moneys payable in respect of the share until the requirements of the notice have been complied with.

77. The Company may charge a fee not exceeding €10 on the registration of every probate, letters of administration, certificate of death, power of attorney, notice as to stock or other instrument or order.

78. The Directors may determine such procedures as they shall think fit regarding the transmission of shares in the Company held by a body corporate that are transmitted by operation of law in consequence of a merger or division.

CLOSING REGISTER OR FIXING RECORD DATE

79. For the purpose of determining members entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of members or any adjournment thereof, or members entitled to receive payment of any dividend, or in order to make a determination of members for any other proper purpose, the Board may provide, subject to the requirements of section 174 of the Act, that the Register shall be closed for transfers at such times and for such periods, not exceeding in the whole thirty days in each year. If the Register shall be so closed for the purpose of determining members entitled to notice of, or to vote at, a meeting of members, such Register shall, subject to applicable law and Exchange rules, be so closed for at least five days immediately preceding such meeting and the record date for such determination shall be the date of the closure of the Register.

80. In lieu of, or apart from, closing the Register, the Board may fix in advance a date as the record date (a) for any such determination of members entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of the members, which record date shall not, subject to applicable law and Exchange rules, be more than sixty days before the date of such meeting, and (b) for the purpose of determining the members entitled to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution, or in order to make a determination of members for any other proper purpose, which record date shall not, subject to applicable law and Exchange rules, be more than sixty days prior to the date of payment of such dividend or other distribution or the taking of any action to which such determination of members is relevant.

81. If the Register is not so closed and no record date is fixed for the determination of members entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of members, the date immediately preceding the date on which notice of the meeting is deemed given under these Articles shall be the record date for such determination of members. Where a determination of members entitled to vote at any meeting of members has been made as provided in these Articles, such determination shall apply to any adjournment thereof; provided, however, that the Directors may fix a new record date of the Adjourned Meeting, if they think fit.

DIVIDENDS

82. Subject to the provisions of these Articles, including Articles 13, 14 and 177, the Company in a general meeting may declare dividends, but no dividends shall exceed the amount recommended by the Directors. Any general meeting declaring a dividend and any resolution of the Directors declaring an interim dividend may direct payment of such dividend or interim dividend wholly or partly by the distribution of specific assets including paid up shares, debentures or debenture stocks of any other company or in any one or more of such ways, and the Directors shall give effect to such resolution.

A-25

83. Subject to the provisions of these Articles, including Articles 13, 14 and 177, the Directors may from time to time:

83.1 pay to the members such dividends (whether as either interim dividends or final dividends) as appear to the Directors to be justified by the profits of the Company, subject to section 117 and Chapter 6 of Part 17 of the Act;

83.2 before declaring any dividend, set aside out of the profits of the Company such sums as they think proper as a reserve or reserves which shall, at the discretion of the Directors, be applicable for any purpose to which the profits of the Company may be properly applied, and pending such application may, at the like discretion either be employed in the business of the Company or be held as cash or cash equivalents or invested in such investments as the Directors may lawfully determine; and

83.3 without placing the profits of the Company to reserve, carry forward any profits which they may think prudent not to distribute.

84. Unless otherwise specified by the Directors at the time of declaring a dividend, the dividend shall be a final dividend.

85. Where the Directors specify that a dividend is an interim dividend at the time it is declared, such interim dividend shall not constitute a debt recoverable against the Company and the declaration may be revoked by the Directors at any time prior to its payment provided that the holders of the same class of share are treated equally on any revocation.

86. Subject to the rights of persons, if any, entitled to shares with special rights as to dividend (and to the rights of the Company under Articles 41 to 45 and Article 88) all dividends shall be declared and paid such that shares of the same class shall rank equally irrespective of the premium credited as paid up on such shares.

87. If any share is issued on terms providing that it shall rank for a dividend as from a particular date, such share shall rank for dividend accordingly.

88. The Directors may deduct from any dividend payable to any member, all sums of money (if any) immediately payable by him or her to the Company on account of calls or otherwise in relation to the shares of the Company.

89. The Directors when declaring a dividend or bonus may direct payment of such dividend or bonus wholly or partly by the distribution of specific assets and, in particular, paid up shares, debentures or debenture stock of any other company or in any one or more of such ways.

90. Where any difficulty arises in regard to a distribution, the Directors may settle the matter as they think expedient and, in particular, may:

90.1 issue fractional certificates (subject always to the restriction on the issue of fractional shares) and fix the value for distribution of such specific assets or any part of them;

90.2 determine that cash payments shall be made to any members upon the footing of the value so fixed, in order to adjust the rights of all the parties; and

90.3 vest any such specific assets in trustees as may seem expedient to the Directors.

91. Any dividend, interest or other moneys payable in cash in respect of any shares may be paid:

91.1 by cheque or negotiable instrument sent by post directed to or otherwise delivered to the registered address of the holder, or where there are joint holders, to the registered address of that one of the joint holders who is first named on the register or to such person and to such address as the holder or the joint holders may in writing direct; or

91.2 by transfer to a bank account nominated by the payee or where such an account has not been so nominated, to the account of a trustee nominated by the Company to hold such moneys,

provided that, in the case of the Class A Preferred Shares, all such payments shall be made by the method described in Article 91.2 only (and not by any of the methods described in Article 91.1).

A-26

92. Any such cheque or negotiable instrument referred to in Article 91 shall be made payable to the order of the person to whom it is sent.

93. Any one of two or more joint holders may give valid receipts for any dividends, bonuses or other moneys payable in respect of the shares held by them as joint holders, whether paid by cheque or negotiable instrument or direct transfer.

94. Subject to the rights of persons, if any, entitled to shares with special rights as to dividend, no dividend shall bear interest against the Company.

95. If the Directors so resolve, any dividend or distribution which has remained unclaimed for twelve years from the date of its declaration shall be forfeited and cease to remain owing by the Company. The payment by the Directors of any unclaimed dividend, distribution or other moneys payable in respect of a share into a separate account shall not constitute the Company a trustee in respect thereof.

BONUS ISSUE OF SHARES

96. Subject to Article 177, any capitalisation provided for in Articles 97 to 101 inclusive will not require approval or ratification by the members.

97. The Directors may resolve to capitalise any part of a relevant sum (within the meaning of Article 98) by applying such sum in paying up in full unissued shares of a nominal value, or nominal value and share premium, equal to the sum capitalised, to be allotted and issued as fully paid bonus shares, to those members or the members of any class of shares in the capital of the Company who would have been entitled to that sum if it were distributed by way of dividend (and in the same proportions).

98. For the purposes of Article 97, “relevant sum” means: (a) any sum for the time being standing to the credit of the Company’s un-denominated capital; (b) any of the Company’s profits available for distribution; (c) any sum representing unrealised revaluation reserves; (d) a merger reserve or (e) any sum standing to the credit of any other capital reserve, reserve account or capital fund, by whatever name called, of the Company, and whether distributable or non-distributable.

99. The Directors may in giving effect to any resolution under Article 97 make: (a) all appropriations and applications of the relevant sum resolved to be capitalised by the resolution; and (b) all allotments and issues of fully paid shares, if any, and generally shall do all acts and things required to give effect to the resolution.

100. Without limiting Article 99, the Directors may:

100.1 make such provision as they think fit for the case of shares becoming distributable in fractions (and, again, without limiting the foregoing, may sell the shares represented by such fractions and distribute the net proceeds of such sale amongst the members or members of a particular class otherwise entitled to such fractions in due proportions);

100.2 authorise any person to enter, on behalf of all the members or members of a particular class concerned, into an agreement with the Company providing for the allotment to them, respectively credited as fully paid up, of any further shares to which they may become entitled on the capitalisation concerned or, as the case may require, for the payment by the application thereto of their respective proportions of the profits resolved to be capitalised of the amounts remaining unpaid on their existing shares,

and any agreement made under such authority shall be effective and binding on all the members or members of a particular class concerned.

101. Where the Directors have resolved to approve a bona fide revaluation of all the fixed assets of the Company, the net capital surplus in excess of the previous book value of the assets arising from such revaluation may be: (a) credited by the Directors to un-denominated capital other than the share premium account; or (b) used in paying up unissued shares of the Company to be issued to members or members of a particular class as fully paid bonus shares.

A-27

GENERAL MEETINGS – GENERAL

102. Subject to Article 103, the Company shall in each year hold a general meeting as its annual general meeting in addition to any other meeting in that year, and shall specify the meeting as such in the notices calling it; and not more than 15 months shall elapse between the date of one annual general meeting of the Company and that of the next.

103. The Company will hold its first annual general meeting within eighteen months of its incorporation.

104. The annual general meeting shall be held in such place and at such time as the Directors shall determine.

105. All general meetings of the Company other than annual general meetings shall be called extraordinary general meetings.

106. The Directors may, whenever they think fit, convene an extraordinary general meeting. An extraordinary general meeting shall also be convened by the Directors on the requisition of members, or if the Directors fail to so convene an extraordinary general meeting, such extraordinary general meeting may be convened by the requisitioning members, in each case in accordance with section 178(3) to (7) of the Act.

107. If at any time the number of Directors is less than two, any Director or any member that satisfies the criteria under section 178 of the Act may convene an extraordinary general meeting in the same manner as nearly as possible as that in which meetings may be convened by the Directors.

108. An annual general meeting or extraordinary general meeting of the Company may be held outside of Ireland. The Company shall make, at its expense, all necessary arrangements to ensure that members can by technological means participate in any such meeting without leaving Ireland.

109. A general meeting of the Company may be held in two or more venues (whether inside or outside of Ireland) at the same time using any technology that provides members, as a whole, with a reasonable opportunity to participate, and such participation shall be deemed to constitute presence in person at the meeting.

NOTICE OF GENERAL MEETINGS

110. The only persons entitled to notice of general meetings of the Company are:

110.1 the members;

110.2 the personal representatives of a deceased member, which member would but for his death be entitled to vote;

110.3 the assignee in bankruptcy of a bankrupt member of the Company (being a bankrupt member who is entitled to vote at the meeting);

110.4 the Directors and Company Secretary; and

110.5 unless the Company is entitled to and has availed itself of the audit exemption under the Act, the Auditors (who shall also be entitled to receive other communications relating to any general meeting which a member is entitled to receive).

111. Subject to the provisions of the Act allowing a general meeting to be called by shorter notice, an annual general meeting and an extraordinary general meeting called for the passing of a special resolution shall be called by at least twenty-one days’ notice. Any other extraordinary general meeting shall also be called by at least twenty-one days’ notice, except that it may be called by fourteen days’ notice where:

111.1 all members, who hold shares that carry rights to vote at the meeting, are permitted to vote by electronic means at the meeting; and

111.2 a special resolution reducing the period of notice to fourteen days has been passed at the immediately preceding annual general meeting, or at a general meeting held since that meeting.

112. Any notice convening a general meeting shall specify the time and place of the meeting and, in the case of special business, the general nature of that business and, in reasonable prominence, that a member entitled to attend, speak, ask questions and vote is entitled to appoint a proxy to attend, speak, ask questions and vote in his place

A-28

and that a proxy need not be a member of the Company. Every notice shall specify such other details as are required by applicable law or the relevant code, rules and regulations applicable to the listing of the shares on any Exchange. Subject to any restrictions imposed on any shares, the notice shall be given to all the members and to the Directors and Auditors.

113. The accidental omission to give notice of a meeting to, or the non-receipt of notice of a meeting by, any person entitled to receive notice shall not invalidate the proceedings at the meeting.

114. In cases where instruments of proxy are sent out with notices, the accidental omission to send such instrument of proxy to, or the non-receipt of such instrument of proxy by, any person entitled to receive such notice shall not invalidate any resolution passed or any proceeding at any such meeting. A member present, either in person or by proxy, at any general meeting of the Company or of the holders of any class of shares in the Company will be deemed, subject to Article 117, to have received notice of that meeting and, where required, of the purpose for which it was called.

115. Where, by any provision contained in the Act, extended notice is required of a resolution, the resolution shall not be effective (except where the Directors have resolved to submit it) unless notice of the intention to move it has been given to the Company not less than twenty-eight days (or such shorter period as the Act permits) before the meeting at which it is moved, and the Company shall give to the members notice of any such resolution as required by and in accordance with the provisions of the Act.

116. In determining the correct period of notice for a general meeting, only Clear Days shall be counted.

117. Whenever any notice is required to be given by law or by these Articles to any person or persons, a waiver thereof in writing, signed by the person or persons entitled to the notice whether before or after the time stated therein, shall be deemed equivalent thereto. Attendance of a person at a meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting, except when the person attends a meeting for the express purpose of objecting at the beginning of the meeting to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened.

WRITTEN RESOLUTIONS OF THE MEMBERS

118. For so long as the Company has more than one shareholder, unanimous consent of the holders of the Ordinary Shares shall be required before the shareholders may act by way of written resolution in lieu of holding a meeting.

119.

119.1 Except in the case of the removal of statutory auditors or Directors and subject to the Act and the provisions of Article 118, anything which may be done by resolution in general meeting of all or any class of members may be done by resolution in writing, signed by all of the holders or any class thereof or their proxies (or in the case of a holder that is a corporation (whether or not a company within the meaning of the Acts) on behalf of such holder) being all of the members of the Company or any class thereof, who at the date of the resolution in writing would be entitled to attend a meeting and vote on the resolution and shall be valid and effective for all purposes as if the resolution had been passed at a general meeting of the Company or any class thereof duly convened and held, and if described as a Special Resolution shall be deemed to be a Special Resolution within the meaning of the Acts. Any such resolution in writing may be signed in as many counterparts as may be necessary.

119.2 For the purposes of any written resolution under Article 119, the date of the resolution in writing is the date when the resolution is signed by, or on behalf of, the last holder to sign and any reference in any enactment to the date of passing of a resolution is, in relation to a resolution in writing made in accordance with this section, a reference to such date.

119.3 A resolution in writing made in accordance with Article 119 is valid as if it had been passed by the Company in general meeting or, if applicable, by a meeting of the relevant class of holders of the Company, as the case may be. A resolution in writing made in accordance with this section shall constitute minutes for the purposes of the Act and these Articles.

120. At any time that the Company is a single-member company, its sole member may pass any resolution as a written decision in accordance with section 196 of the Act.

A-29

QUORUM FOR GENERAL MEETINGS

121. Two members present in person or by proxy and having the right to attend and vote at the meeting and together holding shares representing more than 50% of the votes that may be cast by all members at the relevant time shall be a quorum at a general meeting; provided, however, that at any time when the Company is a single-member company, one member of the Company present in person or by proxy at a general meeting of it shall be a quorum.

122. If within 15 minutes (or such greater time determined by the chairperson) after the time appointed for a general meeting a quorum is not present, then:

122.1 the meeting shall stand adjourned to the same day in the next week, at the same time and place or to such other day and at such other time and place as the Directors may determine (the “Adjourned Meeting”); and

122.2 if at the Adjourned Meeting a quorum is not present within half an hour (or such greater time determined by the chairperson) after the time appointed for the meeting, the members present shall be a quorum.

PROXIES

123. Every member entitled to attend, speak, ask questions and vote at a general meeting may appoint a proxy or proxies to attend, speak, ask questions relating to items on the agenda and vote on his behalf and may appoint more than one proxy to attend, speak, ask questions and vote at the same general meeting provided that, where a member appoints more than one proxy in relation to a general meeting, each proxy must be appointed to exercise the rights attached to different shares held by that member.

124. The appointment of a proxy shall be in writing in any usual form or in any other form which the Directors may approve and shall be signed by or on behalf of the appointor. The signature on such appointment need not be witnessed. A body corporate may sign a form of proxy under its common seal or under the hand of a duly authorised officer thereof or in such other manner as the Directors may approve. A proxy need not be a member of the Company. A member shall be entitled to appoint a proxy by electronic means, to an address specified by the Company. The proxy form must make provision for three-way voting (i.e., to allow votes to be cast for or against a resolution or to be withheld) on all resolutions intended to be proposed, other than resolutions which are merely procedural. An instrument or other form of communication appointing or evidencing the appointment of a proxy or a corporate representative (other than a standing proxy or representative) together with such evidence as to its due execution as the Board may from time to time require, may be returned to the address or addresses stated in the notice of meeting or Adjourned Meeting or any other information or communication by such time or times as may be specified in the notice of meeting or Adjourned Meeting or in any other such information or communication (which times may differ when more than one place is so specified) or, if no such time is specified, at any time prior to the holding of the relevant meeting or Adjourned Meeting at which the appointee proposes to vote, and, subject to the Act, if not so delivered the appointment shall not be treated as valid.

BODIES CORPORATE ACTING BY REPRESENTATIVES AT MEETINGS

125. A body corporate which is a member, or a proxy for a member, of the Company may by resolution of its directors or other governing body authorise such person or persons as it thinks fit to act as its representative or representatives at any meeting of the Company or of any class of members of the Company and, subject to evidence being furnished to the Company of such authority as the Directors may reasonably require, any person(s) so authorised shall be entitled to exercise the same powers on behalf of the body corporate which he represents as that body corporate could exercise if it were an individual member of the Company or, where more than one such representative is so authorized, all or any of the rights attached to the shares in respect of which he is so authorised. Where a body corporate appoints more than one representative in relation to a general meeting, each representative must be appointed to exercise the rights attached to different shares held by that body corporate.

RECEIPT OF PROXY APPOINTMENTS

126. Where the appointment of a proxy and any authority under which it is signed or a copy certified notarially or in some other way approved by the Directors is to be received by the Company:

126.1 in physical form, it shall be deposited at the Office or (at the option of the member) at such other place or places (if any) as may be specified for that purpose in or by way of note to the notice convening the meeting;

A-30

126.2 in electronic form, it may be so received where an address has been specified by the Company for the purpose of receiving electronic communications:

(a) in the notice convening the meeting; or

(b) in any appointment of proxy sent out by the Company in relation to the meeting; or

(c) in any invitation contained in an electronic communication to appoint a proxy issued by the Company in relation to the meeting;

provided that it is so received by the Company no later than 3 hours, or such other time as may be communicated to the members, before the time for holding the meeting or Adjourned Meeting or (in the case of a poll taken otherwise than at or on the same day as the meeting or Adjourned Meeting) for the taking of the poll at which it is to be used, at which the person named in the proxy proposes to vote and in default shall not be treated as valid or, in the case of a meeting which is adjourned to, or a poll which is to be taken on, a date not later than the record date applicable to the meeting which was adjourned or the poll, it shall be sufficient if the appointment of a proxy and any such authority and certification thereof as aforesaid is so received by the Company at the commencement of the Adjourned Meeting or the taking of the poll. An appointment of a proxy relating to more than one meeting (including any adjournment thereof) having once been so received for the purposes of any meeting shall not be required to be delivered, deposited or received again for the purposes of any subsequent meeting to which it relates.

EFFECT OF PROXY APPOINTMENTS

127.

127.1 Receipt by the Company of an appointment of a proxy in respect of a meeting shall not preclude a member from attending and voting at the meeting or at any adjournment thereof. However, if that member votes at the meeting or at any adjournment thereof, then as regards to the resolution(s) any proxy notice delivered to the Company by or on behalf of that same member shall on a poll, be invalid to the extent that such member votes in respect of the shares to which the proxy notice relates.

127.2 An appointment of a proxy shall be valid, unless the contrary is stated therein, as well for any adjournment of the meeting as for the meeting to which it relates and shall be deemed to confer authority to speak at a general meeting and to demand or join in demanding a poll.

128. A proxy shall have the right to exercise all or any of the rights of his appointor, or (where more than one proxy is appointed) all or any of the rights attached to the shares in respect of which he is appointed as the proxy to attend, and to speak and vote, at a general meeting of the Company. Unless his appointment provides otherwise, a proxy may vote or abstain at his discretion on any resolution put to the vote.

EFFECT OF REVOCATION OF PROXY OR OF AUTHORISATION

129. A vote given or poll demanded in accordance with the terms of an appointment of a proxy or a resolution authorising a representative to act on behalf of a body corporate shall be valid notwithstanding the previous death, insanity or winding up of the principal, or the revocation of the appointment of a proxy or of the authority under which the proxy was appointed or of the resolution authorising the representative to act or the transfer of the share in respect of which the proxy was appointed or the authorisation of the representative to act was given, provided that no notice in writing (whether in electronic form or otherwise) of such death, insanity, winding up, revocation or transfer is received by the Company at the Office before the commencement of the meeting.

130. The Directors may send to the members, at the expense of the Company, by post, electronic mail or otherwise, forms for the appointment of a proxy (with or without reply paid envelopes for their return) for use at any general meeting or at any class meeting, either in blank or nominating any one or more of the Directors or any other persons in the alternative. If, for the purpose of any meeting, invitations to appoint as proxy a person or one of a number of persons specified in the invitations are issued at the expense of the Company, such invitations shall be issued to all (and not to some only) of the members entitled to be sent a notice of the meeting and to vote thereat by proxy, but the accidental omission to issue such invitations to, or the non-receipt of such invitations by, any member shall not invalidate the proceedings at any such meeting.

A-31

THE BUSINESS OF GENERAL MEETINGS

131. All business shall be deemed to be special business that is transacted at an extraordinary general meeting or that is transacted at an annual general meeting other than, in the case of an annual general meeting, the business specified in Article 135 which shall be ordinary business.

132. At any meeting of the members, only such business shall be conducted as shall have been properly brought before such meeting. To be properly brought before an annual general meeting, business must be:

132.1 specified in the notice of meeting (or any supplement thereto) given by or at the direction of the Board;

132.2 otherwise properly brought before the meeting by or at the direction of the Board; or

132.3 otherwise properly brought before the meeting by a member.

133. Without prejudice to any procedure which may be permitted under the Act, for business to be properly brought before an annual general meeting by a member, the member must have given timely notice thereof in writing to the Company Secretary. To be timely, a member’s notice must be received not less than 60 days nor more than 90 days prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year’s annual general meeting; provided, however, that in the event that the date of the annual general meeting is advanced by more than 30 days or delayed by more than 60 days from such anniversary, notice by the member to be timely must be so received not earlier than the 90^th day prior to such annual general meeting and not later than the close of business on the later of (i) the 60^th day prior to such annual general meeting or (ii) the tenth day following the date on which notice of the date of the annual general meeting was mailed or public disclosure thereof was made by the Company, whichever event in this clause (ii) first occurs. For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall the adjournment or postponement of any general meeting, or the public announcement of such an adjournment or postponement, commence a new time period (or extend any time period) for the giving of a member’s notice to the Company Secretary pursuant to this Article 133. Each such notice shall set forth as to each matter the member proposes to bring before the annual general meeting:

133.1 a brief description of the business desired to be brought before the annual general meeting and the reasons for conducting such business at the meeting;

133.2 the name and address, as they appear on the Register, of the member proposing such business;

133.3 the class, series and number of shares of the Company which are beneficially owned by the member;

133.4 whether and the extent to which any hedging, derivative or other transaction is in place or has been entered into within the prior six months preceding the date of delivery of the notice by or for the benefit of the member with respect to the Company or its subsidiaries or any of their respective securities, debt instruments or credit ratings, the effect or intent of which transaction is to give rise to gain or loss as a result of changes in the trading price of such securities or debt instruments or changes in the credit ratings for the Company, its subsidiaries or any of their respective securities or debt instruments (or, more generally, changes in the perceived creditworthiness of the Company or its subsidiaries), or to increase or decrease the voting power of the member, and if so, a summary of the material terms thereof; and

133.5 any material interest of the member in such business.

To be properly brought before an extraordinary general meeting, other than pursuant to Article 132, business must be (i) specified in the notice of meeting (or any supplement thereto) given by or at the direction of the Board or by the Company Secretary pursuant to the applicable provisions of these Articles or (ii) otherwise properly brought before the meeting by or at the direction of the Board.

134. The chairperson of the meeting shall, if the facts warrant, determine and declare to the meeting that business was not properly brought before the meeting and in accordance with the provisions of these Articles, and if he or she should so determine, any such business not properly brought before the meeting shall not be transacted. Nothing herein shall be deemed to affect any rights of members to request inclusion of proposals in the Company’s proxy statement pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act.

135. The business of the annual general meeting shall include:

135.1 the consideration of the Company’s statutory financial statements and the report of the Directors and the report of the Auditors on those statements and that report;

A-32

135.2 the review by the members of the Company’s affairs;

135.3 the authorisation of the Directors to approve the remuneration of the Auditors (if any); and

135.4 the appointment or re-appointment of Auditors.

PROCEEDINGS AT GENERAL MEETINGS

136. The Chairperson, if any, shall preside as chairperson at every general meeting of the Company, or if there is no such Chairperson, or if he or she is not present at the time appointed for the holding of the meeting or is unwilling to act, the Directors present shall elect one of their number to be chairperson of the meeting.

137. If at any meeting no Director is willing to act as chairperson or if no Director is present at the time appointed for holding the meeting, the members present shall choose one of their number to be chairperson of the meeting.

138. At each meeting of members, the chairperson of the meeting shall fix and announce the date and time of the opening and the closing of the polls for each matter upon which the members will vote at the meeting and shall determine the order of business and all other matters of procedure.

139. The Directors may adopt such rules, regulations and procedures for the conduct of any meeting of the members as they deem appropriate. Except to the extent inconsistent with any applicable rules, regulations and procedures adopted by the Board, the chairperson of any meeting may adopt such rules, regulations and procedures for the meeting, which need not be in writing, and take such actions with respect to the conduct of the meeting, as the chairperson of the meeting deems appropriate, to maintain order and safety and for the conduct of the meeting.

140. The chairperson of the meeting may, with the consent of any meeting at which a quorum is present, and shall if so directed by the meeting, adjourn the meeting from time to time and from place to place.

141. No business shall be transacted at any Adjourned Meeting other than the business left unfinished at the meeting from which the adjournment took place.

142. When a meeting is adjourned for thirty days or more, notice of the Adjourned Meeting shall be given as in the case of an original meeting but, subject to that, it shall not be necessary to give any notice of an adjournment or of the business to be transacted at an Adjourned Meeting.

143. Each Director and the Auditors shall be entitled to attend and speak at any general meeting of the Company.

144. For business to be properly requested by a member to be brought before a general meeting, the member must comply with the requirements of the Act or:

144.1 be a member at the time of the giving of the notice for such general meeting;

144.2 be entitled to vote at such meeting; and

144.3 have given timely and proper notice in writing to the Company Secretary in accordance with Article 133.

145. Except where a greater majority is required by the Act or these Articles, any question proposed for a decision of the members at any general meeting of the Company or a decision of any class of members at a separate meeting of any class of shares shall be decided by an ordinary resolution.

VOTING

146. At any general meeting, a resolution put to the vote of the meeting shall be decided on a poll.

147. Save as provided in Article 148 of these Articles, a poll shall be taken in such manner as the chairperson of the meeting directs and he or she may appoint scrutineers (who need not be members) and fix a time and place for declaring the result of the poll. The result of the poll shall be deemed to be the resolution of the meeting at which the poll was demanded.

148. A poll demanded on the election of a chairperson of the meeting or on a question of adjournment shall be taken forthwith. A poll demanded on any other question shall be taken either forthwith or at such time and place as the chairperson of the meeting may direct. The demand for a poll shall not prevent the continuance of a meeting for the transaction of any business other than the question on which the poll was demanded.

A-33

149. No notice need be given of a poll not taken forthwith if the time and place at which it is to be taken are announced at the meeting at which it is demanded. In any other case at least seven Clear Days’ notice shall be given specifying the time and place at which the poll is to be taken.

150. If authorised by the Directors, any vote taken by written ballot may be satisfied by a ballot submitted by electronic and/or telephonic transmission, provided that any such electronic or telephonic submission must either set forth or be submitted with information from which it can be determined that the electronic or telephonic submission has been authorised by the member or proxy.

VOTES OF MEMBERS

151. Subject to the provisions of these Articles and any rights or restrictions for the time being attached to any class or classes of shares in the capital of the Company, every member of record present in person or by proxy shall have one vote for each share registered in his or her name in the Register.

152. Where there are joint holders of a share, the vote of the senior who tenders a vote, whether in person or by proxy, shall be accepted to the exclusion of the votes of the other joint holder or holders; and for this purpose, seniority shall be determined by the order in which the names of the joint holders stand in the Register.

153. A member who has made an enduring power of attorney, or a member in respect of whom an order has been made by any court having jurisdiction in cases of unsound mind, may vote by his or her committee, donee of an enduring power of attorney, receiver, guardian or other person appointed by the foregoing court, and any such committee, donee of an enduring power of attorney, receiver, guardian or other persons appointed by the foregoing court may speak or vote by proxy.

154. No objection shall be raised to the qualification of any voter except at the general meeting or adjourned general meeting at which the vote objected to is given or tendered and every vote not disallowed at such general meeting shall be valid for all purposes. Any such objection made in due time shall be referred to the chairperson of the general meeting whose decision shall be final and conclusive.

155. A person shall be entered on the Register by the record date specified in respect of a general meeting in order to exercise the right of a member to participate and vote at the general meeting and any change to an entry on the Register after the record date shall be disregarded in determining the right of any person to attend and vote at the meeting.

156. Votes may be given either personally (including by a duly authorised representative of a corporate member) or by proxy. On a poll taken at a meeting of the members of the Company or a meeting of any class of members of the Company, a member, whether present in person or by proxy, entitled to more than one vote need not, if he votes, use all his votes or cast all the votes he uses in the same way.

157. Subject to such requirements and restrictions as the Directors may specify, the Company may permit members to vote by correspondence in advance of a general meeting in respect of one or more of the resolutions proposed at a meeting. Where the Company permits members to vote by correspondence, it shall only count votes cast in advance by correspondence, where such votes are received at the address and before the date and time specified by the Company, provided the date and time is no more than 24 hours before the time at which the vote is to be concluded.

158. Subject to such requirements and restrictions as the Directors may specify, the Company may permit members who are not physically present at a meeting to vote by electronic means at the general meeting in respect of one or more of the resolutions proposed at a meeting.

159. Where there is an equality of votes, the chairperson of the meeting shall not have a second or casting vote.

160. No member shall be entitled to vote at any general meeting of the Company unless all calls or other sums immediately payable by him or her in respect of shares in the Company have been paid.

CLASS MEETINGS

161. The provisions of these Articles relating to general meetings shall, as far as applicable, apply in relation to any meeting of any class of member of the Company.

APPOINTMENT OF DIRECTORS

162. The number of Directors from time to time shall be not less than two nor more than thirteen.

A-34

163. From and after the date that is the earlier of (i) 2 January 2024 and (ii) the first occurrence of a Springing Rights Event, for so long as any Class A Preferred Shares remain outstanding, then the Class A Preferred Majority shall be entitled from time to time to appoint two persons as Directors (the “Class A Preferred Directors”), and the Class A Preferred Majority shall be entitled, from time to time, to remove from office each and any such person appointed as a Class A Preferred Director and, upon the death, resignation, retirement, disqualification or removal of any person appointed as a Class A Preferred Director (howsoever occasioned), to appoint another person in his or her place. Any such appointment and/or removal shall be made by notice in writing served on the Company and shall take effect on the date specified in the notice.

164. The Board, upon recommendations of the nomination and governance committee (or equivalent committee established by the Board), shall propose nominees for election to the office of Director (other than as a Class A Preferred Director) at each annual general meeting.

165. The Directors (other than as a Class A Preferred Director) may be appointed by the members in general meeting, provided that no person other than a Director retiring at the meeting shall, save where recommended by the Board, be eligible for election to the office of Director at any general meeting unless the requirements of Article 172 as to his or her eligibility for that purpose have been complied with.

166. The Directors (other than the Class A Preferred Directors) shall be divided into three classes, designated Class I, Class II and Class III. The initial division of the Board into classes shall be made by the decision of the affirmative vote of a majority of the Directors in office and each class need not be of equal size or number.

166.1 The term of the initial Class I Directors shall terminate at the conclusion of the Company’s 2024 annual general meeting; the term of the initial Class II Directors shall terminate on the conclusion of the Company’s 2025 annual general meeting; and the term of the initial Class III Directors shall terminate on the conclusion of the Company’s 2026 annual general meeting.

166.2 At each annual general meeting of the Company beginning with the Company’s 2024 annual general meeting, all of the Directors of the class of directors whose term expires on the conclusion of that annual general meeting shall retire from office, unless re-elected, and successors to that class of directors shall be elected for a three-year term.

166.3 The resolution appointing any Director (other than a Class A Preferred Director) must designate the Director as a Class I, Class II or Class III Director.

166.4 Every Director of the class retiring shall be eligible to stand for re-election at an annual general meeting.

166.5 If the number of Directors is changed, any increase or decrease (other than an increase or decrease related to the appointment or removal of a Class A Preferred Director) shall be apportioned among the classes so as to maintain the number of Directors in each class as nearly equal as possible or as the Chairperson may otherwise direct. In no case will a decrease in the number of Directors shorten the term of any incumbent Director.

166.6 A Director (other than a Class A Preferred Director) shall hold office until the conclusion of the annual general meeting for the year in which his term expires and until he shall be re-elected or his successor shall be elected or appointed and subject, however, to prior death, resignation, retirement, disqualification or removal from office.

166.7 Any vacancy on the Board, including a vacancy that results from an increase in the number of directors or from the death, resignation, retirement, disqualification or removal of a Director, shall be deemed a casual vacancy. Subject to the terms of any one or more classes or series of Preferred Shares (including, in the case of the Class A Preferred Shares, Article 163), any casual vacancy shall only be filled by the decision of a majority of the Board then in office, provided that a quorum is present and provided that the appointment does not cause the number of Directors to exceed any number fixed by or in accordance with these articles as the maximum number of Directors. A Class A Preferred Director may only be appointed pursuant to Article 163, and no person may otherwise be appointed or elected to fill a casual vacancy resulting from the death, resignation, retirement, disqualification or removal of a Class A Preferred Director.

166.8 Any Director of such class elected to fill a vacancy resulting from an increase in the number of Directors of such class shall hold office for a term that shall coincide with the remaining term of that class. Any

A-35

Director (other than a Class A Preferred Director) elected to fill a vacancy not resulting from an increase in the number of Directors shall have the same remaining term as that of his predecessor or if there is no such remaining term, the Director shall retire, and be eligible to stand for re-election, at the annual general meeting immediately following their appointment at which time, if reelected, the Director shall hold office for a term that shall coincide with the remaining term of that class. A Director retiring at a meeting shall retain office until the close or adjournment of the meeting.

167. Each Director (other than a Class A Preferred Director) shall be elected by an ordinary resolution at such meeting, provided that if, as of, or at any time prior to, fourteen days before the filing of the Company’s definitive proxy statement with the SEC relating to such general meeting, the number of Director nominees exceeds the number of Directors to be elected (a “contested election”), each of those nominees shall be voted upon as a separate resolution and the Directors shall be elected by a plurality of the votes of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at any such meeting and entitled to vote on the election of Directors.

For the purposes of this Article, “elected by a plurality” means the election of those director nominees, equalling in number to the number of positions to be filled at the relevant general meeting, that received the highest number of votes.

168. Any nominee for election to the Board who is then serving as a Director and, in an uncontested election (where the number of Director nominees does not exceed the number of Directors to be elected), receives a greater number of “against” votes than “for” votes shall promptly tender his or her resignation following certification of the vote. The nomination and governance committee of the Board shall then consider the resignation offer and recommend to the Board whether to accept or reject the resignation, or whether other action should be taken; provided that any Director whose resignation is under consideration shall not participate in the nomination and governance committee’s recommendation regarding whether to accept, reject or take other action with respect to his/her resignation. The Board shall take action on the nomination and governance committee’s recommendation within 90 days following certification of the vote, and promptly thereafter publicly disclose its decision and the reasons therefor.

169. Any Director (other than a Class A Preferred Director) may, from time to time, in accordance with the provisions of Section 165(4) of the Act, appoint any other Director to be an alternate director as respects him or her. Any Class A Preferred Director may, in accordance with the provisions of Section 165(4) of the Act, appoint any other Director or any other person (at his or her absolute discretion) to be an alternate director as respects him or her.

170. The Company may from time to time, by ordinary resolution, increase or reduce the number of Directors provided that any resolution to appoint a Director approved by the members that would result in the maximum number of Directors being exceeded shall be deemed to constitute an ordinary resolution increasing the maximum number of Directors to the number that would be in office following such a resolution of appointment.

171. The Company may by ordinary resolution appoint another person in place of a Director removed from office under section 146 of the Act (other than a Class A Preferred Director) and, without prejudice to the powers of the Directors under Article 166.7, the Company in a general meeting may appoint any person to be a Director (other than a Class A Preferred Director) either to fill a casual vacancy or as an additional Director.

172. The following are the requirements mentioned in Article 165 for the eligibility of a person (the “person concerned”) for election as a Director at a general meeting, namely, any member entitled to vote in the election of Directors generally may nominate one or more persons for election as Directors at an annual general meeting only pursuant to the Company’s notice of such meeting or if written notice of such member’s intent to make such nomination or nominations has been received by the Company Secretary at the Company’s Office not less than 60 nor more than 90 days prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year’s annual general meeting; provided, however, that in the event that the date of the annual general meeting is advanced by more than 30 days or delayed by more than 60 days from such anniversary, notice by the member to be timely must be so received not earlier than the 90th day prior to such annual general meeting and not later than the close of business on the later of (i) the 60th day prior to such annual general meeting and (ii) the 10th day following the day on which notice of the date of the annual general meeting was mailed or public disclosure thereof was made by the Company, whichever event in this clause (ii) first occurs.

172.6 such other information regarding each nominee proposed by such member as would be required to be included in a proxy statement filed pursuant to the proxy rules of the SEC;

(f) any information the Company may require any proposed director nominee to furnish such as it may reasonably require to comply with applicable law and to determine the eligibility of such proposed nominee to serve as a Director and whether such proposed nominee would be considered independent as a Director or as a member of the audit or any other committee of the Board under the various rules and standards applicable to the Company.

VACATION OF OFFICE BY DIRECTORS

173. Subject to the provisions of these Articles and in addition to the circumstances described in sections 146, 148(1) and 196(2) of the Act, the office of Director shall be vacated ipso facto, if that Director:

173.1 is restricted or disqualified to act as a Director under the Act; or

173.2 resigns his or her office by notice in writing to the Company or in writing offers to resign and the Directors resolve to accept such offer; or

173.3 save in the case of a Class A Preferred Director, is requested to resign in writing by not less than three quarters of the other Directors.

DIRECTORS’ REMUNERATION AND EXPENSES

174. Subject to Article 177, the remuneration of the Directors shall be such as is determined, from time to time, by the Board and such remuneration shall be deemed to accrue from day to day. The Board may from time to time

A-37

determine that, subject to the requirements of the Act, all or part of any fees or other remuneration payable to any Director shall be provided in the form of shares or other securities of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company, or options or rights to acquire such shares or other securities, on such terms as the Board may decide.

175. The Directors may also be paid all travelling, hotel and other expenses properly incurred by them: (a) in attending and returning from: (i) meetings of the Directors or any committee; or (ii) general meetings of the Company, or (b) otherwise in connection with the business of the Company.

GENERAL POWER OF MANAGEMENT AND DELEGATION

176. The business of the Company shall be managed by its Directors who may pay all expenses incurred in promoting and registering the Company and may exercise all such powers of the Company as are not, by the Act, by the Memorandum or by these Articles, required to be exercised by the Company in a general meeting, but subject to:

176.1 any regulations contained in these Articles (including the provisions of Articles 177 and 178);

176.2 the provisions of the Act;

176.3 from and after the Initial Closing Date until all the Class A Preferred Shares are redeemed in full in accordance with the provisions of these Articles, the provisions of Article 177;

176.4 from and after the occurrence of a Springing Rights Event, such directions as are given by a Class A Preferred Majority in accordance with the provisions of Article 178: and

176.5 following the redemption of all the Class A Preferred Shares, such directions, not being inconsistent with the foregoing regulations or provisions, as the Company in a general meeting may (by special resolution) give.

177. From and after the Initial Closing Date until all the Class A Preferred Shares are redeemed in full in accordance with the provisions of these Articles, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in these Articles, the Company shall not (and shall cause its subsidiaries not to), and the Board shall cause the Company (and its subsidiaries) not to, undertake any Structured Voting Rights Matter without the prior written consent of a Class A Preferred Majority.

178. From and after the occurrence of a Springing Rights Event, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in these Articles, until (a) all of the Class A Preferred Shares are redeemed in full in accordance with the provisions of these Articles or (b) if earlier, in the case of a Springing Rights Event occurring under limbs (ii) or (iii) of the definition of “Springing Rights Event”, until the non-compliance by the Company with the relevant obligations referred to therein giving rise to the Springing Rights Event (x) if capable of rectification, is rectified to the satisfaction of a Class A Preferred Majority or (y) is otherwise waived in writing by a Class A Preferred Majority, a Class A Preferred Majority shall be entitled to provide directions to the Directors with respect to each Springing Rights Matter. In addition to the means of service of documents set out in section 51 of the Act, such directions may be served on the Company by a Class A Preferred Majority by email and the Directors shall designate an email address for that purpose, which shall be notified to the Class A Preferred Members, in accordance with the provisions of Articles 223 to 232 for the express purpose of serving directions on the Company. For the avoidance of doubt, a Springing Rights Event may occur under limbs (ii) and (iii) of the definition of “Springing Rights Event” on more than one occasion, in each case giving rise to the rights of a Class A Preferred Majority to provide directions hereunder.

179. No direction given by the Company in a general meeting under Article 176.5 shall invalidate any prior act of the Directors which would have been valid if that direction had not been given.

180. Without prejudice to the generality of Article 176, Article 176 operates to enable, subject to a limitation (if any) arising under any of paragraphs 176.1 to 176.3 of it, the Directors exercise all powers of the Company to borrow money and to mortgage or charge its undertaking, property and uncalled capital, or any part thereof.

181. Without prejudice to section 40 of the Act, the Directors may delegate any of their powers (including any power referred to in these Articles) to such person or persons as they think fit, including committees; any such person or committee shall, in the exercise of the powers so delegated, conform to any regulations that may be imposed on it by the Directors.

A-38

182. Any reference to a power of the Company required to be exercised by the Company in a general meeting includes a reference to a power of the Company that, but for the power of the members to pass a written resolution to effect the first-mentioned power’s exercise, would be required to be exercised by the Company in a general meeting.

183. The acts of the Board or of any committee established by the Board or any delegee of the Board or any such committee shall be valid notwithstanding any defect which may afterwards be discovered in the appointment or qualification of any Director, committee member or delegee.

184. The Directors may appoint a sole or joint company secretary, an assistant company secretary and a deputy company secretary for such term, at such remuneration and upon such conditions as they may think fit; and any such person so appointed may be removed by them.

OFFICERS AND EXECUTIVES

185. Subject to the provisions of these Articles, including Article 177, the Directors may from time to time appoint one or more of themselves to the office of Chief Executive Officer (by whatever name called including managing director) or such other office or position with the Company and for such period and on such terms as to remuneration, if any (whether by way of salary, commission, participation in profits or otherwise) as the Board may determine, and, subject to the terms of any agreement entered into in any particular case, may revoke such appointment.

186. Without prejudice to any claim the person so appointed under Article 185 may have for damages for breach of any contract of service between the person and the Company, the person’s appointment shall cease upon his or her ceasing, for any reason, to be a Director.

187. The Board may appoint any person whether or not he or she is a Director, to hold such executive or official position (except that of Auditor) as the Board may from time to time determine. The same person may hold more than one office of executive or official position.

188. The Board shall determine from time to time, the powers and duties of any such office holder or official appointed under Articles 185 and/or Article 187, and subject to the provisions of the Act and these Articles, the Directors may confer upon an office holder or official any of the powers exercisable by them upon such terms and conditions and with such restrictions as they may think fit and in conferring any such powers, the Directors may specify that the conferral is to operate either: (a) so that the powers concerned may be exercised concurrently by them and the relevant office holder; or (b) to the exclusion of their own such powers.

189. The Directors may (a) revoke any conferral of powers under Article 188 or (b) amend any such conferral (whether as to the powers conferred or the terms, conditions or restrictions subject to which the conferral is made). The use or inclusion of the word “officer” (or similar words) in the title of any executive or other position shall not be deemed to imply that the person holding such executive or other position is an “officer” of the Company within the meaning of the Act.

190.

190.1 The Directors may meet together for the dispatch of business, adjourn and otherwise regulate their meetings as they think fit.

A-39

in writing by a Class A Preferred Majority, the Class A Preferred Directors (or either of them) shall, in respect of each Springing Rights Matter, be deemed to have the power to exercise such number of votes as constitute a majority of the votes that may be cast by all the Directors from time to time. For the avoidance of doubt, a Springing Rights Event may occur under limbs (ii) and (iii) of the definition of “Springing Rights Event” on more than one occasion, in each case giving rise to the enhanced voting rights of the Class A Preferred Directors hereunder.

190.5 A Director may, and the Company Secretary on the requisition of a Director shall, at any time summon a meeting of the Directors.

191. All Directors shall be entitled to reasonable notice of any meeting of the Directors.

193. The quorum necessary for the transaction of the business of the Directors may be fixed by the Directors, and unless so fixed shall be a majority of the Directors in office at the time when the meeting is convened, provided that, if any Class A Preferred Director is in office at the time when the meeting is convened, the quorum shall include at least one (1) Class A Preferred Director.

194. The continuing Directors may act notwithstanding any vacancy in their number, provided that if the number of the Directors is reduced below the prescribed minimum the remaining Director or Directors shall appoint forthwith an additional Director or additional Directors to make up such minimum or shall convene a general meeting of the Company for the purpose of making such appointment and apportion the Directors among the classes so as to maintain the number of Directors in each class as equal as possible.

CHAIRPERSON

195. The Directors may elect a Chairperson and determine the period for which he or she is to hold office, but if no such Chairperson is elected, or, if at any meeting the Chairperson is not present after the time appointed for holding it, the Directors present may choose one of their members to be chairperson of a Board meeting. The Chairperson shall vacate office if he or she vacates his or her office as a Director (otherwise than by the expiration of his or her term of office at a general meeting of the Company at which he or she is re-appointed).

COMMITTEES

196. Subject to the other provisions of these Articles, including Article 177, the Directors may establish one or more committees consisting in whole or in part of members of the Board. Subject to Article 177, the composition, function, power and obligations of any such committee will be determined by the Board from time to time, provided that, if a Class A Preferred Director so requests, at least one (1) Class A Preferred Director shall be entitled to serve on any committee so established.

197. A committee established under Article 196 (a “committee”) may elect a chairperson of its meetings; if no such chairperson is elected, or if at any meeting the chairperson is not present after the time appointed for holding it, the members of the committee present may choose one of their number to be chairperson of the meeting.

198. A committee may meet and adjourn as it thinks proper. Committee meetings shall take place at such time and place as the relevant committee may determine.

199. Where any committee is established by the Directors:

199.1 the meetings and proceedings of such committee shall be governed by the provisions of these Articles regulating the meetings and proceedings of the Directors so far as the same are applicable and are not superseded by any regulations imposed upon such committee by the Directors; and

199.2 the Directors may authorise, or may authorise such committee to authorise, any person who is not a Director to attend all or any meetings of any such committee on such terms as the Directors or the committee think fit, provided that any such person shall not be entitled to vote at meetings of the committee.

WRITTEN RESOLUTIONS AND TELEPHONIC MEETINGS OF THE DIRECTORS

200. The following provision shall apply:

200.1 A resolution in writing signed by all the Directors, or by all the Directors being members of a committee referred to in Article 196, and who are for the time being entitled to receive notice of a meeting of the Directors or, as the case may be, of such a committee, shall be as valid as if it had been passed at a meeting of the Directors or such a committee duly convened and held.

200.2 A resolution in writing shall be deemed to have been signed by a Director where the Chairperson, Company Secretary or other person designated by the Board has received an email from that Director’s Certified Email Address which identifies the resolution and states, unconditionally, “I hereby sign the resolution”.

200.3 A Director’s Certified Email Address is such email address as the Director has, from time to time, notified to such person and in such manner as may from time to time be prescribed by the Board.

200.4 The Company shall cause a copy of every email referred to in Article 200.2 to be entered in the books kept pursuant to section 166 of the Act.

201.1 the Act or any other enactment;

201.2 these Articles; or

201.3 an applicable rule of law or an Exchange,

be permitted to vote on a resolution such as is referred to in Article 200, if it were sought to pass the resolution at a meeting of the Directors duly convened and held, then such a resolution, notwithstanding anything in Article 200.1, shall be valid for the purposes of that subsection if the resolution is signed by those of the Directors who would have been permitted to vote on it had it been sought to pass it at such a meeting.

202. In a case falling within Article 201, the resolution shall state the name of each Director who did not sign it and the basis on which he or she did not sign it.

203. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in Articles 200 to 202 dealing with a resolution that is signed by other than all of the Directors shall be read as making available, in the case of an equality of votes, a second or casting vote to the one of their number who would, or might have been, if a meeting had been held to transact the business concerned, chairperson of that meeting.

204. The resolution referred to in Article 200 may consist of several documents in like form each signed by one or more Directors and for all purposes shall take effect from the time that it is signed by the last Director.

205. A meeting of the Directors or of a committee referred to in Article 196 may consist of a conference between some or all of the Directors or, as the case may be, members of the committee who are not all in one place, but each of whom is able (directly or by means of telephonic, video or other electronic communication) to speak to each of the others and to be heard by each of the others and:

205.1 a Director or as the case may be a member of the committee taking part in such a conference shall be deemed to be present in person at the meeting and shall be entitled to vote (subject to Article 201) and be counted in a quorum accordingly; and

205.2 such a meeting shall be deemed to take place:

(a) where the largest group of those Directors participating in the conference is assembled;

(b) if there is no such group, where the chairperson of the meeting then is; or

(c) if neither subparagraph (a) or (b) applies, in such location as the meeting itself decides.

DIRECTORS’ DUTIES, CONFLICTS OF INTEREST, ETC.

206. A Director may have regard to the interests of any other companies in a group of which the Company is a member to the full extent permitted by the Act.

A-41

207. A Director is expressly permitted (for the purposes of section 228(1)(d) of the Act) to use vehicles, telephones, computers, aircraft, accommodation and any other Company property where such use is approved by the Board or by a person so authorised by the Board or where such use is in accordance with a Director’s terms of employment, letter of appointment or other contract or in the course of the discharge of the Director’s duties or responsibilities or in the course of the discharge of a Director’s employment.

208. Nothing in section 228(1)(e) of the Act shall restrict a Director from entering into any commitment which has been approved by the Board or has been approved pursuant to such authority as may be delegated by the Board in accordance with these Articles. It shall be the duty of each Director to obtain the prior approval of the Board before entering into any such commitment permitted by sections 228(1)(e)(ii) and 228(2) of the Act.

209. It shall be the duty of a Director who is in any way, whether directly or indirectly, interested (within the meaning of section 231 of the Act) in a contract or proposed contract with the Company, to declare the nature of his or her interest at a meeting of the Directors.

210. Subject to any applicable law or the relevant code, rules and regulations applicable to the listing of the shares on any Exchange, a Director may attend and participate at Board meetings, be counted in the quorum and vote in respect of any contract, appointment or arrangement in which he or she is interested (including his or her own appointment as a director of the Company or to any other office or place of profit under the Company, and the terms of it), and each Director is hereby released from his or her duty set out in section 228(1)(f) of the Act to avoid a conflict between the Director’s duties to the Company and the Director’s other interests (including personal interests) in respect of any such contract, appointment or arrangement.

211. For the purposes of section 228(1)(f) of the Act, the Board may release any Director from his or her duty to avoid a conflict between that Director’s duties to the Company and that Director’s other interests (including personal interests) in connection with any matter brought to the attention of the Board which would or might otherwise constitute or give rise to a conflict between that Director’s duties to the Company and that Director’s other interests (including personal interests). Release of any Director under this Article 211 shall be effective only if the matter is considered at a meeting of the Board at which the quorum is met without counting the Director in question and the matter is agreed to without that Director voting or would have been agreed to if the vote of that Director had not been counted.

212. Without prejudice to the provisions of Article 211, for the purposes of section 228(1)(f) of the Act, each Class A Preferred Director is hereby generally and unconditionally released from his or her duty to avoid a conflict between that Class A Preferred Director’s duties to the Company and that Class A Preferred Director’s other interests (including personal interests) to the extent any situation or matter constitutes a “Permitted Conflict”. A Class A Preferred Director who is subject to a Permitted Conflict may attend and participate at Board meetings, be counted in the quorum and vote on any decision concerning such situation. A “Permitted Conflict” is a situation or matter where, or in respect of which, a Class A Preferred Director has, or may have, a direct or indirect interest that conflicts, or possibly may conflict, with the interests of the Company arising from (i) that Class A Preferred Director's relationship(s) (as described in Article 213.1) with any Class A Preferred Member who appointed him or her as a director of the Company and/or (ii) the exercise by a Class A Preferred Majority of any rights under these Articles (including the provisions of Articles 177 and 178), the Securities Purchase Agreement or otherwise, howsoever arising. For the purposes of this Article 212, any reference to a “Class A Preferred Member” shall be deemed to include a reference to any unitholder, shareholder, general partner, limited partner, managing member, manager, investment adviser, adviser, director, officer, employee, custodian, trustee, nominee or consultant, in, of, or to, (or other person who or which is involved or interested, whether directly or indirectly, in any capacity or role whatsoever with) a (i) Class A Preferred Member, (ii) any of that Class A Preferred Member's Affiliates or (iii) any manager, investment adviser or other adviser to such Class A Preferred Member or any of its Affiliates (or any Affiliate of any such person).

213. Without prejudice to the provisions of Articles 211 and 212, a Class A Preferred Director may:

213.1 from time to time, but without limitation, be a unitholder, shareholder, general partner, limited partner, managing member, manager, investment adviser, adviser, director, officer, employee, custodian, trustee, nominee or consultant, in, of, or to, (or otherwise, be involved or interested, whether directly or indirectly, in any capacity or role whatsoever with) a (i) Class A Preferred Member, (ii) any of that Class A Preferred Member's Affiliates, (iii) any manager, investment adviser or other adviser to such Class A Preferred Member or any of its Affiliates (or any Affiliate of any such person); and

A-42

213.2 if he or she obtains information or opportunities (other than through his or her office as a Class A Preferred Director) that are confidential to any third party (including any of the persons listed in Article 213.1), or in respect of which he or she owes a duty of confidentiality or a fiduciary duty to any third party (including any of the persons listed in Article 213.1), or the disclosure of which would amount to a breach of applicable law or regulation, choose, at his or her absolute discretion, not to disclose it to the Company or to use it in relation to the Company’s affairs,

and for the purposes of section 228(1)(f) of the Act, each Class A Preferred Director is hereby generally and unconditionally released from his or her duty to avoid a conflict between that Class A Preferred Director’s duties to the Company and that Class A Preferred Director’s other interests (including personal interests) in respect of the matters so permitted by this Article 213.

214. The Directors may exercise the voting powers conferred by the shares of any other company held or owned by the Company in such manner in all respects as they think fit and, in particular, they may exercise the voting powers in favour of any resolution: (a) appointing the Directors or any of them as directors or officers of such other company; or (b) providing for the payment of remuneration or pensions to the directors or officers of such other company.

215. Subject to any applicable law or the relevant code, rules and regulations applicable to the listing of the shares on any Exchange, any Director may vote in favour of the exercise of such voting rights notwithstanding that he or she may be or may be about to become a director or officer of the other company referred to in Article 214 and as such or in any other way is or may be interested in the exercise of such voting rights in the foregoing manner.

216. A Director may hold any other office or place of profit under the Company (other than Auditor) in conjunction with his or her office of Director for such period and on such terms as to remuneration and otherwise as the Directors may determine.

217. Without prejudice to the provisions of section 228 of the Act, a Director may be or become a director or other officer of, or otherwise interested in, any company promoted by the Company or in which the Company may be interested as a shareholder, member or otherwise.

218. A Director may act by himself or herself, or his or her firm, in a professional capacity for the Company, and any Director, in such a case, or his or her firm, shall be entitled to remuneration for professional services as if he or she were not a Director, but nothing in this Article authorises a Director, or his or her firm, to act as Auditor.

219. No Director shall by reason of his or her office as a director of the Company (or the fiduciary relationship established by holding that office) be:

219.1 disqualified from contracting with the Company with regard to any situation or matter authorised or permitted under Articles 207, 208, 210, 211, 212, 213, 216, 217 and/or 218; or

219.2 accountable to the Company for any remuneration, profit or other benefit resulting from any situation or matter authorised or permitted under Articles 207, 208, 210, 211, 212, 213, 216, 217 and/or 218,

and no contract, transaction or arrangement entered into by, or on behalf of the Company shall be liable to be avoided on the grounds of any Director having an interest authorised or permitted by any of such Articles.

THE COMMON SEAL, OFFICIAL SEAL AND SECURITIES SEAL

220. Any seal of the Company shall be used only by the authority of the Directors, a committee authorised by the Directors to exercise such authority or by any one or more persons severally or jointly so authorised by the Directors or such a committee, and the use of the seal shall be deemed to be authorised for these purposes where the matter or transaction pursuant to which the seal is to be used has been so authorised.

221. Any instrument to which a Company’s seal shall be affixed shall be signed by any one of the following:

221.1 a Director;

221.2 the Company Secretary; or

221.3 any other person authorised to sign by (i) the Directors or (ii) a committee,

and the countersignature of a second such person shall not be required.

222. The Company may have one or more duplicate common seals or official seals for use in different locations including for use abroad.

A notice or document may be sent by electronic means to the fullest extent permitted by the Act.

224. Without prejudice or limitation to the foregoing provisions of Article 223.1 to 223.4, for the purposes of these Articles and the Act, a document shall be deemed to have been sent to a member if a notice is given, served, sent or delivered to the member and the notice specifies the website or hotlink or other electronic link at or through which the member may obtain a copy of the relevant document.

225. Any notice served or given in accordance with Article 223 shall be deemed, in the absence of any agreement to the contrary between the Company (or, as the case may be, the officer of it) and the member, to have been served or given:

225.1 in the case of its being delivered, at the time of delivery (or, if delivery is refused, when tendered);

225.2 in the case of its being left, at the time that it is left;

225.3 in the case of its being posted on any day other than a Friday, Saturday or Sunday, 24 hours after despatch and in the case of its being posted:

Any requirement in these Articles for the consent of a member in regard to the receipt by such member of electronic mail or other means of electronic communications approved by the Directors, including the receipt of the Company’s annual report, statutory financial statements and the Directors’ and Auditor’s reports thereon, shall be deemed to have been satisfied where the Company has written to the member informing him or her of its intention to use electronic communications for such purposes and the member has not, within four weeks of the issue of such notice, served an objection in writing on the Company to such member. Where a member has given, or is deemed to have given, his/her consent to the receipt by such member of electronic mail or other means of electronic communications approved by the Directors, she/he may revoke such consent at any time by requesting the Company to communicate with him or her in documented form; provided, however, that such revocation shall not take effect until five days after written notice of the revocation is received by the Company.

238. The accounting records shall be kept at the Office or, subject to the provisions of the Act, at such other place as the Directors think fit and shall be open at all reasonable times to the inspection of the Directors.

239. The Directors shall determine from time to time whether and to what extent and at what times and places and under what conditions or regulations the accounting records of the Company shall be open to the inspection of members, not being Directors.

A-46

to have irrevocably consented to receipt of every statutory financial statement of the Company (including every document required by law to be annexed thereto) and every copy of the Directors’ report and the Auditors’ report and every copy of any summary financial statements prepared in accordance with section 1119 of the Act, by any such document being made so available or displayed.

Subject to the provisions of the Act as to preferential payments, the property of the Company on its winding up shall be distributed among the members according to their rights and interests in the Company, including, in the case of the Class A Preferred Members, in accordance with their priority liquidation preference rights set out in Article 15.

244. Unless the conditions of issue of the shares in question provide otherwise, dividends declared by the Company more than six years preceding the commencement date of a winding up of the Company, being dividends which have not been claimed within that period of six years, shall not be a claim admissible to proof against the Company for the purposes of the winding up.

245. If the Company shall be wound up and the assets available for distribution among the members as such shall be insufficient to repay the whole of the paid up or credited as paid up share capital, such assets shall be distributed so that, as nearly as may be, the losses shall be borne by the members in proportion to the nominal value of the share capital paid-up or credited as paid-up at the commencement of the winding up on the shares in the capital of the Company held by them respectively. If in a winding up the assets available for distribution among the members shall be more than sufficient to repay the whole of the share capital paid up or credited as paid up at the commencement of the winding up, the excess shall be distributed among the members in proportion to the nominal value of the share capital paid-up or credited as paid-up at the commencement of the winding up on the said shares held by them respectively; provided, however, that this Article shall be subject to any specific rights attaching to any class of share capital, including, in the case of the Class A Preferred Shares, the priority liquidation preference rights of the Class A Preferred Members set out in Article 15.

245.1 In case of a sale by the liquidator under section 601 of the Act, the liquidator may by the contract of sale agree so as to bind all the members, for the allotment to the members directly, of the proceeds of sale in proportion to their respective interests in the Company and may further, by the contract, limit a time at the expiration of which obligations or shares in the capital of the Company not accepted or required to be sold shall be deemed to have been irrevocably refused and be at the disposal of the Company, but so that nothing herein contained shall be taken to diminish, prejudice or affect the rights of dissenting members conferred by the said section.

245.2 The power of sale of the liquidator shall include a power to sell wholly or partially for debentures, debenture stock, or other obligations of another company, either then already constituted or about to be constituted for the purpose of carrying out the sale.

246. If the Company is wound up, the liquidator, with the sanction of a special resolution and any other sanction required by the Act, may divide amongst the members in specie or kind the whole or any part of the assets of the Company (whether they shall consist of property of the same kind or not), and, for such purpose, may value any assets and determine how the division shall be carried out as between the members or different classes of members. The liquidator, with the like sanction, may vest the whole or any part of such assets in trustees upon such trusts for the benefit of the contributories as, with the like sanction, he or she determines, but so that no member shall be compelled to accept any assets upon which there is a liability.

BUSINESS TRANSACTIONS

247. In addition to any affirmative vote or consent required by law or these Articles, and except as otherwise expressly provided in Article 248, a Business Transaction (as defined in Article 249.3) with, or proposed by or on behalf of, any Interested Person (as defined in Article 249.6) or any Affiliate (as defined in Article 249.1) of any Interested Person or any person who thereafter would be an Affiliate of such Interested Person shall require approval by the affirmative vote of members of the Company holding not less than two-thirds (2/3) of the paid up ordinary share capital of the Company, excluding the voting rights attached to any shares beneficially owned by such Interested Person.

For the purposes of determining whether a person is an Interested Person pursuant to Article 249.6, the number of shares of the Company deemed to be outstanding shall include shares deemed beneficially owned by such person through application of this Article 249.2, but shall not include any other shares of the Company that may be issuable pursuant to any agreement, arrangement or understanding, or upon exercise of conversion rights, warrants or options, or otherwise.

249.4 The term “Independent Directors” shall mean the members of the Board who are not Affiliates or representatives of, or associated with, an Interested Person and who were either Directors prior to any person becoming an Interested Person or were recommended for election or elected to succeed such directors by a vote which includes the affirmative vote of a majority of the Independent Directors.

249.8 The term “subsidiary” has the meaning ascribed to it in section 7 of the Act.

250. A majority of the Independent Directors shall have the power and duty to determine, on the basis of information known to them after reasonable inquiry, for the purposes of (i) Articles 247 and 248, all questions arising

under Articles 247 and 248 including, without limitation (a) whether a person is an Interested Person, (b) the number of shares of the Company or other securities beneficially owned by any person; and (c) whether a person is an Affiliate of another; and (ii) these Articles, the question of whether a person is an Interested Person. Any such determination made in good faith shall be binding and conclusive on all parties.

251. Nothing contained in Articles 247 to 250 shall be construed to relieve any Interested Person from any fiduciary obligation imposed by law.

SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS PLAN

252. Subject to applicable law and the provisions of these Articles, including Article 177, the Directors are hereby expressly authorised to adopt any shareholder rights plan (a “Rights Plan”), upon such terms and conditions as the Directors deem expedient and in the best interests of the Company, including, without limitation, where the Directors are of the opinion that a Rights Plan could grant them additional time to gather relevant information or pursue strategies in response to or anticipation of, or could prevent, a potential change of control of the Company or accumulation of shares in the Company or interests therein.

253. Subject to applicable law and the provisions of these Articles, including Article 177, the Directors may exercise any power of the Company to grant rights (including approving the execution of any documents relating to the grant of such rights) to subscribe for Ordinary Shares or Preferred Shares (“Rights”) in accordance with the terms of a Rights Plan.

254. Subject to applicable law and the provisions of these Articles, including Article 177, for the purposes of effecting an exchange of Rights for Ordinary Shares or Preferred Shares (an “Exchange”), the Directors may:

254.1 resolve to capitalise an amount standing to the credit of the reserves of the Company (including, but not limited to, the share premium account, capital redemption reserve, any un-denominated capital and profit and loss account), whether or not available for distribution, being an amount equal to the nominal value of the ordinary shares or preferred shares which are to be exchanged for the Rights; and

254.2 apply that sum in paying up in full ordinary shares or preferred shares and allot such shares, credited as fully paid, to those holders of Rights who are entitled to them under an Exchange effected pursuant to the terms of a Rights Plan.

255. The duties of the Directors to the Company under applicable law, including, but not limited to, the Act and common law, are hereby deemed amended and modified such that the adoption of a Rights Plan and any actions taken thereunder by the Directors (if so approved by the Directors) shall be deemed to constitute an action in the best interests of the Company in all circumstances, and any such action shall be deemed to be immediately confirmed, approved and ratified.

UNTRACED MEMBERS

256. The Company shall be entitled to sell at the best price reasonably obtainable any share of a member or any share to which a person is entitled by transmission if and provided that:

256.1 for a period of twelve years no cheque or warrant sent by the Company through the post in a pre-paid letter addressed to the member or to the person entitled by transmission to the share at his address on the Register or at the last known address given by the member or the person entitled by transmission to which cheques and warrants are to be sent has been cashed and no communication has been received by the Company from the member or the person entitled by transmission (provided that during such twelve year period at least three dividends shall have become payable in respect of such share);

256.2 at the expiration of the said period of twelve years by advertisement in a national daily newspaper published in Ireland and in a newspaper circulating in the area in which the address referred to in Article 256.1 is located the Company has given notice of its intention to sell such share;

256.3 during the further period of three months after the date of the advertisement and prior to the exercise of the power of sale the Company has not received any communication from the member or person entitled by transmission; and

256.4 the Company has first given notice in writing to the appropriate sections of the Exchanges of its intention to sell such shares.

A-50

257. Where a share, which is to be sold as provided in Article 256, is held in uncertificated form, the Directors may authorise any person to do all that is necessary to change such share into certificated form prior to its sale.

258. To give effect to any such sale the Company may appoint any person to execute as transferor an instrument of transfer of such share and such instrument of transfer shall be as effective as if it had been executed by the member or the person entitled by the transmission to such share. The transferee shall be entered in the Register as the member of the shares comprised in any such transfer and he shall not be bound to see to the application of the purchase moneys nor shall his title to the shares be affected by any irregularity in or invalidity of the proceedings in reference to the sale.

259. The Company shall account to the member or other person entitled to such share for the net proceeds of such sale by carrying all moneys in respect thereof to a separate account which shall be a permanent debt of the Company and the Company shall be deemed to be a debtor and not a trustee in respect thereof for such member or other person. Moneys carried to such separate account may be either employed in the business of the Company or held as cash or cash equivalents, or invested in such investments as the Directors may think fit, from time to time.

DESTRUCTION OF RECORDS

260. The Company shall be entitled to destroy all instruments of transfer which have been registered at any time after the expiration of six years from the date of registration thereof, all notifications of change of name or change of address however received at any time after the expiration of two years from the date of recording thereof and all share certificates and dividend mandates which have been cancelled or ceased to have effect at any time after the expiration of one year from the date of such cancellation or cessation. It shall be presumed conclusively in favour of the Company that every entry in the Register purporting to have been made on the basis of an instrument of transfer or other document so destroyed was duly and properly made and every instrument duly and properly registered and every share certificate so destroyed was a valid and effective document duly and properly cancelled and every other document hereinbefore mentioned so destroyed was a valid and effective document in accordance with the recorded particulars thereof in the books or records of the Company. Provided always that:

260.1 the provision aforesaid shall apply only to the destruction of a document in good faith and without notice of any claim (regardless of the parties thereto) to which the document might be relevant;

260.2 nothing herein contained shall be construed as imposing upon the Company any liability in respect of the destruction of any document earlier than as aforesaid or in any other circumstances which would not attach to the Company in the absence of this Article; and

260.3 references herein to the destruction of any document include references to the disposal thereof in any manner.

INDEMNIFICATION

261.

261.1 Subject to the provisions of and so far as may be permitted by the Act, each person who is or was a Director, officer or employee of the Company, and each person who is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer or employee of another company, or of a partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, including service with respect to employee benefit plans maintained or sponsored by the Company (including the heirs, executors, administrators and estate of such person) shall be entitled to be indemnified by the Company against all costs, charges, losses, expenses and liabilities incurred by him or her in the execution and discharge of his or her duties or in relation thereto, including any liability incurred by him or her in defending any proceedings, civil or criminal, which relate to anything done or omitted or alleged to have been done or omitted by him or her as a director, officer or employee of the Company or such other company, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, and in which judgment is given in his or her favour (or the proceedings are otherwise disposed of without any finding or admission of any material breach of duty on his or her part) or in which he or she is acquitted or in connection with any application under any statute for relief from liability in respect of any such act or omission in which relief is granted to him or her by the court.

261.2 In the case of any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding by or in the right of the Company, the Company shall indemnify, to the fullest extent permitted by the Act, each person indicated in Article 261.1 against expenses, including attorneys’ fees actually and reasonably incurred in connection with the defence or the settlement thereof, except no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or

A-51

matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable for fraud or dishonesty in the performance of his or her duty to the Company unless and only to the extent that the courts of Ireland or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that despite the adjudication of liability, but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses as the Court shall deem proper.

261.3 As far as permissible under the Act, expenses, including attorneys' fees, incurred in defending any action, suit or proceeding referred to in this Article shall be paid by the Company in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of a written affirmation by or on behalf of the Director, officer, employee or other indemnitee of a good faith belief that the criteria for indemnification have been satisfied and a written undertaking to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that such Director, officer or employee or other indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company as authorised by these Articles.

261.4 It being the policy of the Company that indemnification of the persons specified in this Article shall be made to the fullest extent permitted by law, the indemnification provided by this Article shall not be deemed exclusive of: (a) any other rights to which those seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under the Memorandum, these Articles, any agreement, any insurance purchased by the Company, any vote of members or disinterested Directors, or pursuant to the direction (however embodied) of any court of competent jurisdiction, or otherwise, both as to action in his or her official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office, or (b) any amendments or replacements of the Act which permit for greater indemnification of the persons specified in this Article and any such amendment or replacement of the Act shall hereby be incorporated into these Articles. As used in this Article 261.4, references to the “Company” include all constituent companies in a consolidation or merger in which the Company or any predecessor to the Company by consolidation or merger was involved. The indemnification provided by this Article shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a Director, officer or employee and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors, and administrators of such Directors, officers, employees or other indemnitees.

261.5 The Directors shall have power to purchase and maintain for any Director, the Company Secretary or other officers or employees of the Company insurance against any such liability as referred to in section 235 of the Act.

261.6 The Company may additionally indemnify any agent of the Company or any director, officer, employee or agent of any of its subsidiaries to the fullest extent provided by law, and purchase and maintain insurance for any such person as appropriate.

262. Subject to the provisions of the Act and so far as may be permitted by the Act, no person shall be personally liable to the Company or its members for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a Director, provided, however, that the foregoing shall not eliminate or limit the liability of a Director:

262.1 for any breach of the Director’s duty of loyalty or duty of care to the Company or its members;

262.2 for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law; or

262.3 for any transaction from which the Director derived an improper personal benefit.

If any applicable law or the relevant code, rules and regulations applicable to the listing of the Company’s shares on any Exchange is amended hereafter to authorise corporate action further eliminating or limiting the personal liability of Directors, then the liability of a Director shall be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by the relevant law, as so amended. Any amendment, repeal or modification of this Article 262 shall not adversely affect any right or protection of a Director existing hereunder with respect to any act or omission occurring prior to such amendment, repeal or modification.

GOVERNING LAW AND JURISDICTION

263. This constitution and any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with it or its subject matter, formation, existence, negotiation, validity, termination or enforceability (including non-contractual obligations, disputes or claims) will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Ireland.

264. Subject to Article 265, the courts of Ireland are to have exclusive jurisdiction to settle any dispute arising out of or in connection with this constitution and, for such purposes, the Company and each shareholder irrevocably

A-52

submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts. Any proceeding, suit or action arising out of or in connection with this Constitution (the “Proceedings”) will therefore be brought in the courts of Ireland. Each shareholder irrevocably waives any objection to Proceedings in the courts referred to in this Article on the grounds of venue or on the grounds of forum non conveniens.

265. Unless the Company consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the federal district courts of the United States of America shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be the exclusive forum for the resolution of any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the Exchange Act or the Securities Act of 1933 of the United States. Any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring any interest in any security of the Company shall be deemed to have notice of and consented to this provision.

The Issuer does not conduct any business other than holding the Equity Interests of, and undertaking any ancillary activities related thereto, their respective Subsidiaries. All the outstanding equity interests of the Subsidiaries have been duly and validly issued and were issued in all material respects in accordance with their respective Charter Document, the registration or qualification requirements of any Applicable Law or pursuant to valid exemptions therefrom.

Until the earlier of (i) the expiration of the Availability Period and (ii) the first date on which all Subsequent Acquired Interests and Reserve Release Acquired Interests have been issued to, and subscribed for by, Buyer, in the event that any member of the Issuer Group desires to seek any additional financing, the proceeds of which will primarily be used in connection with the direct or indirect funding, construction

(i) the failure of any of the representations or warranties of the Issuer contained in this Agreement to be true and correct;

(ii) fraud in the making of any of the representations or warranties of the Issuer contained in this Agreement;

(iii) the failure of the Issuer to perform any of its covenants, obligations or other agreements under this Agreement;

(iv) any Taxes imposed on any member of the Issuer Group for any taxation year or period that begins before the Closing Date and ends on or before the Closing Date, and any Taxes imposed on any member of the Issuer Group in respect of the portion of any Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date and which the Issuer Group has failed to duly and timely pay or remit to the applicable Governmental Authority, any Transfer Taxes, and any Taxes or other liability resulting from any failure to comply with any “bulk sales” or similar pre-sale tax clearance procedures required pursuant to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; and

(v) any Taxes (including Transfer Taxes referred to in Section 14.14) imposed on the Buyer or its Affiliates as a result of the issuance of the Securities to the Buyer or its Affiliates or the consummation of any other transaction contemplated by the Transaction Documents.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the aggregate amount of all Losses for which the Issuer may be liable for any Claim by Buyer arising out of or related to Section 12.03 will not exceed an amount equal to the portion of the Subscription Price actually funded.

(c) Except for fraud of the Issuer, the Issuer will not have any liability with respect to any Claim or series of related Claims with respect to Losses incurred by the Buyer Indemnitees under Section 12.03(a)(i) (other than in the case of Losses arising from the failure of any Designated Buyer Representations and Tax Representations) (such Losses, “Ordinary Rep Losses”) until such time as Ordinary Rep Losses, which are incurred by the

B-38

Buyer Indemnitees under Section 12.03(a)(i) collectively exceed US$500,000 (the “Ordinary Rep Basket”), in which case, subject to the other provisions of this Section 12.03, the Issuer will be liable to indemnify the Buyer Indemnitees for all Losses from dollar one (including below and above the Ordinary Rep Basket).

(d) For the avoidance of doubt, (i) the calculation of the amount of any Losses pursuant to this Section 12.03 shall properly take into account the amount and nature of Buyer’s equity interests in the Issuer and (ii) in no event shall any indemnity payment due pursuant to this Section 12.03 be borne, directly or indirectly, by Buyer through any reduction in distributions or redemption payments that would be made to Buyer under the Company Articles but for such indemnity payment. In furtherance of the foregoing and notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, recognizing that, following the Initial Closing, Buyer will be an equityholder of Issuer and thus bear a portion of the cost of any indemnification payments made by Issuer hereunder, the Parties have agreed that the amount of any indemnification to be provided to any Buyer Indemnitee pursuant to Section 12.03(a) shall be equitably adjusted to offset any Losses incurred by the Buyer Indemnitees arising from the payment of an indemnity claim to the Buyer Indemnitees hereunder by the applicable Issuer. Further, notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement or the Company Articles to the contrary, Buyer shall have the right, in its discretion, to cause any amounts due and payable to any Buyer Indemnity in respect of any Losses for which such Buyer Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Article 12 to be paid, in whole or in part (in each case subject to available funds in the Reserve Account), from the Contingency Funds.

Section 12.04 Claim Procedures. Each Issuer Indemnitee and Buyer Indemnitee (each, an “Indemnitee”) agrees that after it becomes aware of facts giving rise to a claim by it for indemnification pursuant to this Article 12, such Indemnitee must promptly assert its claim for indemnification under this Article 12 (each, a “Claim”) by providing a written notice (a “Claim Notice”) to the Party allegedly required to provide indemnification protection under this Article 12 (each, an “Indemnitor”) specifying, in reasonable detail, the nature and basis for such Claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Indemnitee’s failure to send or delay in sending a Claim Notice will not relieve the Indemnitor from liability hereunder with respect to such Claim except to the extent and only to the extent the Indemnitor is materially prejudiced by such failure or delay.

Section 12.05 Third Party Claims.

(a) In the event of the assertion of any third party Claim with respect to which, by the terms of this Article 12, an Indemnitor is obligated to indemnify an Indemnitee (a “Third Party Claim”), the Indemnitor will have the right, at such Indemnitor’s expense, to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim including the appointment and selection of counsel on behalf of the Indemnitee, so long as such counsel is reasonably acceptable to the Indemnitee. Upon assuming the defense of any such Third Party Claim, the Indemnitor shall, subject to this Section 12.05, diligently prosecute such Third Party Claim to a final conclusion or settle such Third Party Claim; provided, however, that the Indemnitor will not consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnitee (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) unless (i) the Indemnitor unconditionally acknowledges and agrees that the Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification under (and subject to the express limitations contained in) this ‎‎Article 12 with respect to such Third Party Claim and (ii) the judgment or proposed settlement involves the payment of money damages by the Indemnitor only and does not impose an injunction or other equitable relief upon the Indemnitee and does not include any admission of guilt or wrongdoing.

(b) If the Indemnitor elects to assume the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnitee will be entitled, at its own cost and expense, to employ separate counsel and participate in the defense of any such Third Party Claim. If the Third Party Claim is asserted against both the Indemnitor and the Indemnitee and there is a conflict of interests which renders it inappropriate for the same counsel to represent both the Indemnitor and the Indemnitee, the Indemnitor shall be responsible for paying for separate counsel for the Indemnitee (selected by the Indemnitee); provided, however, that if there is more than one Indemnitee, the Indemnitor shall not be responsible for paying for more than one law firm to represent the Indemnitees, regardless of the number of Indemnitees. The Indemnitor shall have no liability with respect to any compromise or settlement of any Third Party Claim effected without its written consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(c) If (i) the Indemnitor accepts responsibility for any such Third Party Claim but fails to diligently prosecute such Third Party Claim in accordance with Section 12.05(a), (ii) the Indemnitor fails to accept

B-39

responsibility for such Third Party Claim or (iii) such Third Party Claim relates to or arises in connection with any criminal proceeding, action, indictment, investigation or allegation, the Indemnitee may assume control of such defense with counsel of its own choice, and any costs or expenses reasonably incurred by the Indemnitee in connection therewith will be Losses hereunder.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Indemnitor will not be permitted to settle, compromise, take any corrective or remedial action or enter into an agreed judgment or consent decree, in each case, that subjects the Indemnitee to any criminal liability, requires an admission of guilt or wrongdoing on the part of the Indemnitee or imposes any continuing restrictive obligation on or requires any payment from the Indemnitee without the Indemnitee’s prior written consent.

Section 12.06 Payments. The Indemnitor will pay an indemnification payment due under this ‎‎Article 12 to the Indemnitee within five (5) Business Days after it is established (by final, un-appealable Order of any court conducted in accordance with this Agreement or agreement of the Indemnitor and the Indemnitee) that the Indemnitee is entitled to such payment under this ‎Article 12. If a Claim involves an undisputed and disputed portion, the Indemnitor will promptly pay the undisputed portion, and the disputed portion will be paid if and when finally determined.

Section 12.07 Certain Limitations.

(a) IN NO EVENT SHALL ANY INDEMNITOR BE LIABLE TO ANY INDEMNITEE PURSUANT TO THIS ARTICLE 12 FOR ANY PUNITIVE DAMAGES EXCEPT FOR AMOUNTS (I) PAYABLE TO THIRD PARTIES PURSUANT TO A THIRD PARTY CLAIM, (II) THAT ARE THE NATURAL, PROBABLE AND REASONABLY FORESEEABLE RESULT OF THE RELEVANT BREACH OR OTHER MATTER GIVING RISE THERETO OR (III) THAT INVOLVE FRAUD OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OF SUCH INDEMNITOR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT.

(b) For the purposes of determining the amount of Loss resulting from any breach of any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement pursuant to Section 12.03, the determination shall be made without references to the terms “material,” “materiality,” “Material Adverse Effect,” “material adverse effect” or other similar qualifications as to materiality (other than specific monetary thresholds) contained in any such representation or warranty.

Section 12.08 Exclusive Remedy. Subject to Section 14.13 and following sentence, the Parties acknowledge and agree that their sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any and all claims for any misrepresentation or breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein, shall be pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article ‎12 and no Person will have any other rights, claims or causes of action for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 12.08 to the contrary (including the foregoing sentence), nothing in this Agreement shall limit or otherwise restrict a claim for fraud brought by any Party against any other Party, any breach of contract claim relating to this Article ‎12 or any Party’s right to seek and obtain any equitable relief to which any Person shall be entitled pursuant to Section 14.13. For the avoidance of doubt, any breach of the Transaction Documents will be governed by the rights and remedies thereunder, and the provisions set forth in this Article ‎12 shall not be applicable to such breach.

ARTICLE 13 Termination

Section 13.01 Right of Termination. This Agreement and the transactions contemplated herein (other than transactions consummated prior thereto) may be terminated at any time at or prior to the final Closing:

(a) by the mutual written agreement of the Issuer and Buyer;

(b) by Buyer, if the Issuer shall have breached or failed to perform any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements set forth in this Agreement (or there would be such a breach of a representation or warranty if a Closing were scheduled to occur at the time of the Issuer’s delivery of the notice of termination of this Agreement), which breach or failure to perform (A) would give rise to the failure of a condition set forth in Section 6.01 or Section 6.02, respectively and (B) cannot be cured by the Issuer by November 30, 2023 (the “Outside Date”) or, if capable of being cured, shall not have been cured within thirty (30) days following receipt of written notice from Buyer stating Buyer’s intention to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 13.01(b) and the basis for such termination; provided that Buyer shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 13.01(b) if it is then in material breach of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or other agreements hereunder;

B-40

(c) by the Issuer, if Buyer shall have breached or failed to perform any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements set forth in this Agreement, which breach or failure to perform (A) would give rise to the failure of a condition set forth in Section 9.01(a) or Section 9.01(b), respectively, and (B) cannot be cured by Buyer by the Outside Date or, if capable of being cured, shall not have been cured within thirty (30) days following receipt of written notice from the Issuer stating Issuer’s intention to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 13.01(c) and the basis for such termination; provided, that the Issuer shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 13.01(c) if it is then in material breach of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or other agreements hereunder;

(d) by Buyer, if: (i) all of the conditions to a Closing set forth in article 6 and Article 9 were satisfied or waived as of the date on which such Closing should have been consummated pursuant to the terms of this Agreement (other than those conditions that by their terms are to be satisfied at such Closing and could have been satisfied or would have been waived assuming a Closing would occur), (ii) Buyer has notified the Issuer that Buyer is ready, willing and able to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and (iii) the Issuer fails to consummate such Closing within two (2) Business Days after the delivery of such notification by Buyer;

(e) by the Issuer, if: (i) all of the conditions to a Closing set forth in Article 5.09 and Article 9 were satisfied or waived as of the date on which such Closing should have been consummated pursuant to the terms of this Agreement (other than those conditions that by their terms are to be satisfied at such Closing and could have been satisfied or would have been waived assuming a Closing would occur), (ii) the Issuer has notified Buyer that the Issuer is ready, willing and able to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and (iii) Buyer fails to consummate such Closing within two (2) Business Days after the delivery of such notification by the Issuer;

(f) by Buyer, if, the board of directors of Carbon Revolution determines that a proposal received from any Person is, or would be reasonably likely to be, an actual, proposed or potential, Superior Proposal (as defined in that certain Scheme Implementation Deed, dated as of November 29, 2022, by and among the Issuer, SPAC and Carbon Revolution, as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time prior to the date hereof) and thereafter enters into a definitive agreement with Person relating to such Superior Proposal; or

(g) by either Party if no Closing has occurred on or before the Outside Date, provided, however that a Party may not terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 13.01(f) if such Party is at such time in material breach of this Agreement.

Section 13.02 Effect of Termination. If the obligation to close the transactions contemplated by this Agreement is terminated pursuant to any provision of Section 13.01 hereof, then, except for the provisions of Article 1 necessary to give context to the surviving provisions, Section 5.03, Article 12, this Section 13.02, and Article 14 (other than Section 14.04), this Agreement shall forthwith become void and the Parties shall have no liability or obligation hereunder.

Section 13.03 Termination Fee.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 13.02, if this Agreement is terminated for any reason pursuant to article 13 and, at such time, Buyer has the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 13.01(f), then Buyer shall be entitled to receive as liquidated damages (and not as a penalty) an amount equal to $1,500,000 (the “Superior Proposal Termination Fee”) as Buyer’s sole and exclusive remedy free and clear of any claims by the Issuer under this Agreement. The Issuer shall pay the Superior Proposal Termination Fee in cash in immediately available funds by wire transfer to the account provided by Buyer (the “Superior Proposal Termination Fee Wire Instructions”) within three (3) Business Days of receipt of the Termination Fee Wire Instructions. Upon payment of the Superior Proposal Termination Fee, Buyer shall promptly forfeit and surrender the Carbon Revolution Warrant to Carbon Revolution for no consideration and the Carbon Revolution Warrant shall thereafter be cancelled.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 13.02, if this Agreement is terminated for any reason pursuant to article 13 and, at such time, Buyer does not have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 13.01(f), then Buyer shall be entitled to receive as liquidated damages (and not as a penalty) an amount equal to $500,000 (the “Alternative Termination Fee” and, together with the Superior Proposal Termination Fee, each, a “Termination Fee”) as Buyer’s sole and exclusive remedy free and clear of any claims

B-41

by the Issuer under this Agreement. To the extent that Buyer is entitled to the Alternative Termination Fee, (i) , until the Alternative Termination Fee is paid in full in accordance with this Section 13.03(b), Buyer shall have a first priority claim to the first proceeds released from the Equity Cure Reserve Fund in an amount up to the amount of the Alternative Termination Fee and (ii) Carbon Revolution Operations shall, on November 23, 2023, pay the Alternative Termination Fee in cash in immediately available funds by wire transfer to the account provided by Buyer. To the extent that Buyer is entitled to the Alternative Termination Fee, following the termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms and until such Alternative Termination Fee is paid, Carbon Revolution Operations shall not terminate, amend or modify, or waive any provision of, the IP Loan Facility in a manner that would impede or prohibit Carbon Revolution Operation’s ability to pay the Alternative Termination Fee in accordance with this Section 13.03.

(c) The Parties and Carbon Revolution recognize that Buyer’s actual damages for the circumstances described in this Section 13.03 would be difficult or impossible to ascertain with reasonable certainty and agree that the applicable Termination Fee is a reasonable liquidated damages amount for such breach or failure to perform the transactions contemplated hereby.

(a) Any provision of this Agreement may be (i) amended, if such amendment is in writing and is duly executed by Buyer, the Issuer and, solely with respect to amendments to Section 13.03, Carbon Revolution Operations, and (ii) waived, if such waiver is in writing and is signed by the party entitled to the benefit thereof.

(b) No failure or delay by any party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder will operate as a waiver thereof nor will any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies herein provided will be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.

Section 14.03 Expenses. The Issuer shall be solely responsible for the costs of all the external legal, accounting, and other professional advisors incurred or that will be incurred in anticipation of, relating to or in connection with the transactions contemplated in this Agreement by the Issuer Group. Additionally, the Issuer shall be solely responsible for the Transaction Expense Reimbursement Amount.

Section 14.04 Successors and Assigns. The provisions of this Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. No party may assign, delegate or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the consent of each other parties hereto, except that a party may, by notice to (and without the consent of) the other parties, assign this Agreement to its Affiliate on the condition that the assigning party and any such assignee shall remain obligated hereunder notwithstanding any such assignment.

Section 14.05 Governing Law. This Agreement and all questions, claims or causes of action (whether in contract, tort or statute) that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement, or the negotiation, execution, performance, interpretation or enforcement of this Agreement will be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without regard to the laws of the State of New York or any other jurisdiction that would call for the application of the substantive or procedural laws of any jurisdiction other than New York.

Section 14.06 Jurisdiction. Each party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally, for itself and its property, submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the federal and state courts in the City of New York in the State of New York

B-43

(and of the appropriate appellate courts therefrom) (such courts, the “Forum”), in any Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any transaction contemplated hereby, and agrees that all claims in respect of such Action may be heard and determined in the Forum, and each of the Parties hereby irrevocably and unconditionally (a) agrees not to commence any Action except in the Forum, (b) agrees that any claim in respect of any Action may be heard and determined in the Forum, (c) waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such Action in the Forum, and (d) waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such Action in the Forum. Each party hereby agrees that service of summons, complaint or other process in connection with any Action contemplated hereby may be made by registered or certified mail addressed to such party at the address specified pursuant to Section 14.01, and that service so made will be effective as if personally made in the State of New York.

Section 14.07 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HEREBY WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED ON, OR ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS BY THIS AGREEMENT, OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING, ORAL OR WRITTEN STATEMENT OR ACTION OF ANY PARTY IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT, IN EACH CASE WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT, EQUITY OR OTHERWISE.

Section 14.08 Counterparts; Effectiveness; Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterparts, whether delivered by facsimile transmission, .pdf or otherwise, each of which will be considered an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument. This Agreement will become effective when each party hereto will have received a counterpart hereof signed by the other party hereto. Until and unless each party hereto has received a counterpart hereof signed by the other party hereto, this Agreement will have no effect and no party will have any right or obligation hereunder (whether by virtue of any other oral or written agreement or other communication). No provision of this Agreement is intended to confer any rights, benefits, remedies, obligations, or liabilities hereunder upon any Person other than the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

Section 14.09 Electronic Signatures. The words “execution,” “execute,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in or related to this Agreement or any other document to be signed in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be deemed to include electronic signatures, which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature, to the extent and as provided for in any Applicable Law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

Section 14.10 Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the other Transaction Documents constitute the entire agreement between the Parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both oral and written, between the Parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement.

Section 14.11 Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or other Governmental Authority to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions of this Agreement will remain in full force and effect and will in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party. Upon such a determination, the Parties will negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

Section 14.12 Disclosure Schedules. The Issuer has set forth information on the disclosure schedules delivered by the Issuer to Buyer on the Execution Date (the “Issuer Disclosure Schedules”) in a section thereof that corresponds to the section of this Agreement to which it relates. A matter set forth in one section of the Issuer Disclosure Schedules shall be deemed set forth in any other section so long as its relevance to such other section of the Issuer Disclosure Schedules or section of the Agreement is reasonably apparent on the face of the information disclosed therein to the Person to which such disclosure is being made. The Parties acknowledge and agree that (a)

B-44

the Issuer Disclosure Schedules may include certain items and information solely for informational purposes for the convenience of Buyer and the disclosure by the Issuer of any matter in the Issuer Disclosure Schedules will not be deemed to constitute an acknowledgment by the Issuer that the matter is required to be disclosed by the terms of this Agreement or that the matter is material.

Section 14.13 Specific Performance. The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur if any provision of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with the terms hereof. The Parties acknowledge and agree that each party will be entitled to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement, or to enforce compliance with, the covenants and obligations of any other party, in each case in the Forum, and no party shall assert that a remedy of specific performance or other equitable relief is unenforceable, invalid, contrary to law or inequitable for any reason, nor that a remedy of monetary damages would provide an adequate remedy or that the Parties otherwise have an adequate remedy at law. Any party seeking an Order of specific performance shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection therewith.

Section 14.14 Transfer Taxes. Any transfer, real property transfer, sales, use, excise, stamp, conveyance, commercial activity, and any other similar Taxes applicable to, arising out of or imposed upon the transactions contemplated hereunder (“Transfer Taxes”) arising in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the issue of the Securities, shall be borne by the Issuer Group. The Issuer shall prepare and file any related Tax Return with respect to such Transfer Taxes; provided, that prior to the filing thereof, Buyer will have the right to review, comment on, and consent (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) to any Tax Return in respect of Transfer Taxes. Buyer shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the Subscription Price an amount equal to any Transfer Taxes imposed or to be imposed on Buyer that are known on the applicable Closing Date and such deduction or withholding shall be treated for the purposes of Section 2.08 as if it was a deduction or withholding required by Applicable Law. The Parties intend to take the position that no Transfer Taxes apply to the issuance of the Warrant or the Securities.

Section 14.15 Arm’s Length Transaction. Buyer and the Issuer agree and acknowledge that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Transaction Documents have been negotiated in good faith and as an arm’s length transaction between unconnected persons.

CARBON REVOLUTION PUBLIC LIMITED COMPANY

WARRANT TO PURCHASE ORDINARY SHARES

X =			Y(A - B)
X =			A

Where:

X=	The number of Ordinary Shares to be issued to the Holders;

Y=	The number of Ordinary Shares purchasable under this Warrant or, if only a portion of the Warrant is being exercised, the portion of the Warrant being cancelled (at the date of such calculation);

A=	the VWAP (as defined below) on the trading day immediately preceding the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise; and

B=	The Exercise Price (as adjusted to the date of such calculations) minus the nominal value of an Ordinary Share.

C-5

(c) “VWAP” means, for any date, the price determined by the first of the following clauses that applies: (a) if the Ordinary Shares are then listed or quoted on a trading market, the daily volume weighted average price of the Ordinary Shares for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on the trading market on which the Ordinary Shares are then listed or quoted as reported by Bloomberg (based on a Trading Day from 9:30 a.m. (New York City time) to 4:02 p.m. (New York City time)) or (b) in all other cases, the fair market value of a share of Common Stock as determined by an independent appraiser selected in good faith by the Holders, the fees and expenses of which shall be paid by the Company the Company shall provide its calculation of the fair market value per Ordinary Share to the Holders, together with reasonable details and supporting documentation with respect to such calculation. Only with respect to the preceding clause (b), within ten (10) Business Days of the receipt of such calculation, the Holders shall have the right to provide notice to the Company of any disagreement regarding the calculation of such fair market value (a “FMV Dispute Notice”), which FMV Dispute Notice shall, to the extent reasonably capable of calculation, include the Holders’ calculation of the fair market value of one Ordinary Share and reasonable supporting documentation regarding the same to the extent available. Following receipt of any such FMV Dispute Notice by the Company, the Holders and the Company shall negotiate in good faith to reach agreement regarding the fair market value of one Ordinary Share. If the Company and the Holders are unable to resolve all such disputed items within ten (10) Business Days following the Company’s receipt of the FMV Dispute Notice, then all items that have not been resolved on a mutually agreeable basis shall be submitted to an independent valuation expert (“Designated Valuation Firm”) mutually acceptable to the Company and the Holders for resolution, and such Designated Valuation Firm shall be instructed to issue its determination within ten (10) Business Days after the submission of such dispute thereto; provided, that if the Company and the Holders are unable to agree on a Designated Valuation Firm within fifteen (15) Business Days following the Company’s receipt of the FMV Dispute Notice, the Designated Valuation Firm shall be designated by a majority of the independent members of the board of directors of the Company. The determination by such Designated Valuation Firm shall be binding on the Company and the Holders. All costs and expenses relating to the work performed by the Designated Valuation Firm shall be borne by the Holders, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand, based on the inverse of the percentage that the Designated Valuation Firm’s determination bears to the total amount of the total items in dispute as originally submitted to the Designated Valuation Firm, which proportionate allocations shall also be determined by the Designated Valuation Firm at the time it renders its determination on the merits of the matters in dispute. For example, if the items in dispute totaled US$1,000 and the Designated Valuation Firm awards US$600 in favor of the Company and US$400 in favor of the Holders, then sixty percent (60%) of the costs and expenses relating to the work performed by the Designated Valuation Firm would be borne by the Holders and forty percent (40%) of such costs and expenses would be borne by the Company. Such fair market value of one Ordinary Share as finally determined pursuant to this Section 3 shall be referred to herein as the “Fair Market Value” for purposes of this Warrant.

For purposes of beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder.

7. Adjustment to Number of Ordinary Shares and Exercise Price. In order to prevent dilution of the rights granted under this Warrant, the Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as provided in this Section 7, and the number of Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as provided in this Section 7; provided, however, if more than one subsection of this Section 7 is applicable to a single event, the subsection shall be applied that produces the largest adjustment and no single event shall cause an adjustment under more than one subsection of this Section 7 so as to result in duplication.

(a) Subdivision or Combination of Ordinary Shares. If the Company at any time while this Warrant remains outstanding and unexpired shall subdivide or combine its Equity Interests, the Exercise Price shall be proportionately decreased in the case of a subdivision or increased in the case of a combination and the number of Ordinary Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable shall be correspondingly adjusted.

(b) Reclassification, Reorganization and Consolidation. In case of any reclassification, capital reorganization or change in the Equity Interests of the Company (other than as a result of a subdivision, combination provided for in Section 7(a) above or an in-kind distribution provided for in Section 7(c) below), then, as a condition of such reclassification, reorganization or change, lawful provision shall be made, and duly executed documents evidencing the same from the Company or its successor shall be delivered to the Holders, so that the Holders shall have the right at any time prior to the expiration of this Warrant to purchase, at a total price equal to that payable upon the exercise of this Warrant, the kind and amount of Equity Interests and other securities or property receivable in connection with

C-9

such reclassification, reorganization or change by a holder of a proportionate number and type of securities as were purchasable as Ordinary Shares by the Holders immediately prior to such reclassification, reorganization or change. In any such case appropriate provisions shall be made with respect to the rights and interest of the Holders so that the provisions hereof shall thereafter be applicable with respect to any Equity Interests or other securities or property deliverable upon exercise hereof, and appropriate adjustments shall be made to the Exercise Price per Ordinary Share payable hereunder; provided, that the aggregate Exercise Price shall remain the same (subject to adjustment in accordance with this Section 7).

(c) Distributions of Ordinary Shares or Other Securities or Property. If at any time while this Warrant remains outstanding and unexpired, the holders of the Equity Interests as to which purchase rights under this Warrant exist at the time shall have received, or, on or after the date fixed for the determination of eligible Members, shall have become entitled to receive, without payment therefor, other or additional Equity Interests or other property (other than cash) of the Company by way of distribution, then and in each case, this Warrant shall represent the right to acquire, in addition to the number of Ordinary Shares receivable upon exercise of this Warrant, and without payment of any additional consideration therefor, the amount of such other or additional Equity Interests or other property (other than cash) of the Company that the Holders would hold on the date of such exercise had they been the holder of record of the Ordinary Shares receivable upon exercise of this Warrant on the date hereof and had thereafter, during the period from the date hereof to and including the date of such exercise, retained such Ordinary Shares and/or all other additional Equity Interests available by it as aforesaid during such period, giving effect to all adjustments called for during such period by the provisions of this Section 7.

(d) Fractional Shares. No fractional Ordinary Shares or scrip representing fractional Ordinary Shares will be issued in connection with any exercise hereunder. In lieu of any fractional Ordinary Shares to which the Holders would otherwise be entitled, the number of Ordinary Shares to be issued upon exercise of this Warrant shall be rounded down to the nearest whole Ordinary Share.

(e) Maximum Percentage. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, unless all of the Orion Holders, together with any other “attribution parties,” file any Securities and Exchange Commission reports required as a result of such Orion Holders and such other “attribution parties” collectively beneficially owning in the aggregate in excess of 4.99% of the common equity of the Company outstanding, this Warrant shall not be exercisable by the Holders if the Holders together with any other “attribution parties” collectively would beneficially own in the aggregate in excess of 4.99% (the “Maximum Percentage”) of the number of common equity of the Company outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise. For purposes of the foregoing, beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. At any time, upon written notice to the Company, the Holders may increase or decrease the Maximum Percentage to any other percentage.

8. Transfer of Warrant.

(a) Subject to the transfer conditions referred to in the legend endorsed hereon and the other applicable terms and conditions of this Warrant, until the material breach by the Company of this Warrant or the Company Articles (the “Warrant Holder Period”), the Holders shall not Transfer this Warrant except to their respective Affiliates, any Related Fund or holder of Equity Interests of the Holders. Upon and following the expiration of the Warrant Holder Period, the Holders may Transfer this Warrant to any Person. Any Transfer pursuant to this Section 8 shall be implemented by delivering (by email or otherwise) this Warrant to the Company with a duly executed and delivered instrument of Transfer, together with evidence of payment of any relevant stamp duty or transfer taxes by the Transferee. Upon such surrender of the Warrant and subject to the payment of any relevant stamp duty or transfer taxes by the Transferee, the Company shall execute and deliver any new Warrant(s) in the names of the Transferor and permitted Transferees, as applicable, and in accordance with the denominations specified in such instrument of Transfer, and this Warrant shall automatically be cancelled, and the Company shall register the permitted Transferees, and the permitted Transferees shall be deemed to have become, and shall be treated for all purposes as, the holders of record of the new Warrant(s) immediately upon issuance of such new Warrant(s) to such permitted Transferees. Any Transfer in violation of this Section 8 shall be void ab initio.

C-10

(b) The Holders understand that this Warrant, and any securities issued in respect hereof or exchange herefor, will bear, for so long as is required by applicable securities laws, a legend in substantially the form of subsection (i) and may bear the legends stated in subsection (ii):

(i) “THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED, ASSIGNED, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR PURSUANT TO RULE 144 OR AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER SUCH ACT.”

(ii) Any legend required by the securities laws of any state to the extent such laws are applicable to the securities represented by the certificate or other document so legended.

(c) Certificates or book entries evidencing title to this Warrant and any securities issued in respect hereof or exchange herefor that cease to be restricted pursuant to applicable securities laws shall not contain any legend (including the legends set forth in Section 8(b)) and, promptly following the date on which such securities cease to be restricted pursuant to applicable securities laws, and following the delivery by the Holders and the Holders’ broker(s) to the Company, its legal counsel and the Company’s transfer agent of customary representations and other documentation (including, for the avoidance of doubt, customary certificates and representation letters, but not including any notarized or medallion guaranteed documents) and other representations and documentation as required by law or regulation evidencing that the applicable securities have ceased to be restricted pursuant to applicable securities laws and that the removal of such legend may be effected under the Securities Act, the Company shall cause (i) its legal counsel to issue a customary legal opinion to the Company’s transfer agent to effect the removal of the applicable legends on such securities and (ii) the Company’s transfer agent to deliver to the Holders such securities that are free from all restrictive and other legends by crediting the account of the Holders’ broker with the Depository Trust Company System as directed by the Holders.

9. Replacement on Loss. In the event that the Holders notify the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant, then upon delivery of an indemnity bond or lost warrant affidavit sufficient in the reasonable determination of the Company to protect the Company from any loss that it may suffer if the Warrant is replaced and, in case of mutilation, upon surrender of such Warrant for cancellation to the Company, the Company shall execute and deliver to the Holders, in lieu hereof, a new Warrant of like tenor and exercisable for an equivalent number of Ordinary Shares as the Warrant so lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed and the replaced Warrant shall automatically be cancelled; provided, that, in the case of mutilation, no indemnity bond or lost warrant affidavit shall be required if this Warrant in identifiable form is surrendered to the Company for cancellation.

10. Warrant Register. The Company shall keep and properly maintain at its executive offices records of the registration of this Warrant and any permitted and duly made transfers or exercises thereof. The Company may deem and treat the Person in whose name this Warrant is registered in such register as the holder thereof for all purposes, and the Company shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary, except any assignment, division or other transfer of the Warrant effected in accordance with the provisions of this Warrant.

This Warrant and the rights and obligations evidenced hereby shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and the successors of the Company and the permitted successors and permitted assigns of the Holders.

Annex D

SHAREHOLDER’S AGREEMENT

This Shareholder’s Agreement (as the same may be amended, supplemented, restated or otherwise modified from time to time in accordance with the terms hereof, this “Agreement”), dated as of September 19, 2023, is made and entered into by and between Carbon Revolution Public Limited Company, a public limited company incorporated in Ireland with registered number 607450 (the “Company”) and OIC Structured Equity Fund I GPFA Range, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, and OIC Structured Equity Fund I Range, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (each an “OIC Entity” and, collectively and together with the OIC Funds (as defined below), “OIC”).

RECITALS

WHEREAS, the Company and OIC are party to that certain Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of September 19, 2023 (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which, among other things, (a) on the date hereof, OIC will subscribe for and acquire from the Company, and the Company will allot, issue and sell to OIC, (i) Class A preferred shares with a nominal value of US$0.0001 per share in the capital of the Company (the “Class A Preferred Shares”) and (ii) that certain Warrant to Purchase Ordinary Shares of the Company, in substantially the form attached as Exhibit B to the Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Warrant”) and (b) OIC may, on the terms and subject to the conditions thereof, subscribe for and acquire from the Company, and the Company may allot, issue and sell to OIC, additional Class A Preferred Shares;

WHEREAS, OIC may, from time to time, in accordance with the articles of association of the Company (as the same may be amended, modified or supplemented from time to time, the “Company Articles”), be allotted and issued further Class A Preferred Shares in satisfaction of the Company’s dividend obligations in respect of the Class A Preferred Shares;

WHEREAS, as an inducement to OIC entering into the Securities Purchase Agreement and consummating the transactions contemplated thereby, including the investment in Class A Preferred Shares and the Warrant, the Company and OIC are entering into this Agreement to set forth certain understandings between such parties with respect to certain governance and other matters of the Company; and

WHEREAS, each of the OIC Entities is an indirect subsidiary of OIC Structured Equity Fund I Upper GP, LLC (each such entity and any other investment fund or vehicle managed or advised by OIC, L.P. or its affiliates that acquires, directly or indirectly, any Class A Preferred Shares or all or any portion of the Warrant is referred to herein as an “OIC Fund Entity” and such entities are collectively referred to herein as, the “OIC Funds”) and the rights of the OIC Entities and OIC Fund Entities set forth herein are intended to permit the OIC Funds to qualify their investment with respect to the Company, as a “venture capital investment” for purposes of the United States Department of Labor Regulation published at 29 C.F.R. Section 2510.3-101(c) under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (the “Plan Asset Regulation”).

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the representations, covenants and agreements contained herein, and certain other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:

1. Board Appointment and Observer Rights.

(a) Director Appointment.

(i) From the date that is the earlier of (x) January 2, 2024 and (y) the occurrence of a Springing Rights Event (as defined in the Company Articles) (the “Director Designation Commencement Date”) until the first date on which the OIC Funds and their affiliates cease to own, directly or indirectly, any Class A Preferred Shares (the “Director Designation Termination Date”), OIC shall be entitled, from time to time, in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the Company Articles, to appoint two persons (each such person, a “Class A Preferred Director” and together, the “Class A Preferred Directors”) to the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) as members thereof (a “Director”), and OIC shall be entitled, from time to time, to remove from office any such person then appointed as a Class A Preferred Director and, upon the removal of the foregoing (howsoever occasioned), to appoint another person in his or her place. Promptly following the Director Designation Termination Date, each Class A Preferred Director shall (and OIC shall cause each Class A Preferred Director to) immediately tender to the Board his or her resignation as a Director.

D-1

(ii) Any appointment or removal referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph shall be made by notice in writing served on the Company in accordance with the Company Articles and shall take effect, automatically and immediately, on the date specified in the notice, without the requirement for any further action or approval by the Board.

(iii) The Class A Preferred Directors shall not be required to be retired and stand for re-election at annual general meetings of the Company.

(iv) Subject to applicable law and stock exchange rules, until the Director Designation Termination Date, each of the audit and risk committee of the Board and the remuneration and nomination committee of the Board shall include at least one (1) Class A Preferred Director.

(b) Other Rights of Class A Preferred Directors. Each Class A Preferred Director serving on the Board shall be entitled to the same rights and privileges applicable to all other members of the Board generally or to which all such members of the Board are entitled, provided, however, that the Class A Preferred Directors shall not be entitled to compensation from the Company for their service as Directors. In furtherance of the foregoing, the Company shall indemnify, exculpate, and reimburse fees and expenses of each Class A Preferred Director and provide the Class A Preferred Directors with director and officer insurance to the same extent it indemnifies, exculpates, reimburses and provides insurance for the other members of the Board pursuant to the Company Articles or other governing document of the Company, agreement with such other member of the Board, applicable law or otherwise.

(c) Confidentiality. OIC agrees that it will, and will cause each of the Class A Preferred Directors and Board Observers (as defined herein) to, maintain the confidentiality of the Confidential Information (as defined herein), except that Confidential Information may be disclosed (i) to OIC’s affiliates’ directors, officers, employees, board members (and members of committees thereof), managers, agents, consultants, persons providing administration and settlement services and other professional advisors, including accountants, auditors, legal counsel, investment advisers or managers (to the extent necessary to advise with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) and other advisors, in each case, with a bona fide need to know (it being understood that the persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Confidential Information and instructed to keep such Confidential Information confidential), (ii) to the extent requested by any applicable regulatory or supervisory body or authority, by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena, oral question posed at any deposition, interrogatory or similar legal process; provided, that OIC shall give notice thereof to the Company as soon as practicable (unless restricted from doing so and except where disclosure is to be made to a regulatory or supervisory body or authority during the ordinary course of its supervisory or regulatory function), (iii) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section 1(d), to any assignee of, or any prospective assignee of, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement, (iv) with the consent of the Company, (v) to the extent such information (A) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 1(d). For the purposes of this Section 1(d), “Confidential Information” means all information received from the Company relating to the Company’s business or otherwise furnished pursuant to this Agreement, including, for the avoidance of doubt, any information obtained as a result of the Class A Preferred Directors serving as a member of the Board of the Board Observers participating in actions of the Board, other than any such information that is available to OIC, the Class A Preferred Director or the Board Observer, as applicable, on a non-confidential basis prior to disclosure by the Company or its representatives. OIC, the Class A Preferred Directors and the Board Observers shall be considered to have complied with their respective obligations to maintain the confidentiality of such Confidential Information if such person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Confidential Information as such person would accord to its own confidential information. Notwithstanding the foregoing, such Class A Preferred Directors and Board Observers shall not be permitted to disclose any Confidential Information pursuant to clause (i) or clause (iii) of the first sentence of this subsection if the Company determines, based upon the advice of legal counsel, that such disclosure would result in the termination of attorney-client privilege or other similar protection against the obligation to disclose such information to third parties.

(d) Vacancy. In the event that a vacancy on the Board is created at any time by the death, retirement, disability, removal or resignation of a Class A Preferred Director, the applicable OIC Designor (as defined herein) shall be entitled to appoint a replacement for such Class A Preferred Director. Any such appointment shall be made and take effect in the manner described in Section 1(a)(ii).

D-2

(e) Board Observers. From (A) the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) (the “BCA Closing”) until the Director Designation Commencement Date and (B) the Director Designation Termination Date (or at any other time when an OIC Designor (as defined below) does not have a Class A Preferred Director serving as a Director) and until the first date on which (i) the Warrant has been exercised in full in accordance with its terms and (ii) no OIC Fund Entity directly or indirectly owns any ordinary shares of the Company or other debt or equity securities in the Company or its subsidiaries that relate to or derive from the Class A Preferred Shares or the Warrant (the “Observer Right Termination Date”), each OIC Designor shall have the right to appoint one person to attend all meetings of the Board in a non-voting, observer capacity (each, a “Board Observer” and together, the “Board Observers”). Each Board Observer shall be entitled to: (i) be given notice by the Company of any meeting of the Board and each committee thereof at the same time as the applicable Directors; (ii) be present at all meetings of the Board and each committee thereof; (iii) receive copies of all minutes of meetings of the Board and each committee thereof; and (iv) receive copies of any reports, minutes or other documents distributed to the Board and each committee thereof at the time such materials are given to the applicable Directors; in each case, subject to any exclusions reasonably required to preserve attorney-client privilege or other similar protection against the obligation to disclose such information to third parties with respect to any such documents or the contents of any discussion at any such meetings. Prior to such appointment, OIC and each Board Observer shall cooperate in good faith with the Company to enter into a reasonable and customary confidentiality agreement (a “Confidentiality Agreement”)with respect to confidential materials received by the Board Observer in such person’s capacity as such. The Company shall reimburse the Board Observer for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including travel and lodging) incurred in connection with such person’s attendance at meetings of the Board.

2. Inspection and Consultation Rights. From (A) the BCA Closing until the Director Designation Commencement Date and (B) the Director Designation Termination Date (or at any other time when an OIC Designor does not have a Class A Preferred Director serving as a Director on the Board or there is a VCOC Transferee (as defined herein) who is not an OIC Designor) and until the Observer Right Termination Date, subject to the terms of any Confidentiality Agreement, each OIC Fund Entity shall have the right to visit and inspect the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ properties, to examine the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ books, records, accounts and documents, to discuss the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ finances and properties with the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ officers, to discuss any existing project or development with the project management consultants with respect thereto and access to any weekly or monthly report or other materials provided by any such consultant to the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates, in each case, during normal business hours, as may be reasonably requested in advance and in writing by such OIC Fund Entity. In furtherance of the foregoing, the Company agrees that it shall make its appropriate officers and managers available from time to time (in any event, with at least five (5) Business Days’ written notice unless waived by all relevant parties) for reasonable consultation with a representative of the applicable OIC Fund Entity, with respect to matters relating to the business and operational performance of the Company, as applicable. The parties acknowledge and agree that such consultations need not be in person and may be carried out by telephone or videoconference. At the reasonable request of any or all of the OIC Fund Entities, the Company will use reasonable efforts to provide such additional rights of consultation as OIC may reasonably request in the event changes in applicable law require such changes in order for an OIC Fund Entity’s investment in the Company to qualify as a “venture capital investment” for purposes of the Plan Asset Regulation.

3. Information Rights. Until the Termination Date (as defined herein), each OIC Fund Entity shall be entitled to receive from the Company, and the Company agrees to deliver to the OIC Fund Entities, the following information:

4. Tax Matters. Until the Termination Date, the Company shall (at the Company’s expense):

(a) in consultation with an internationally recognized accounting firm with expertise in U.S. tax matters (“External Accountants”), (i) determine each year whether or not the Company is likely to become a passive foreign investment company within the meaning of Section 1297 of the Code (a “PFIC”) and notify OIC of its determination within 45 days of the end of each taxable year, (ii) make available to OIC upon request, all information that the Company (or its External Accountants) used to determine whether or not the Company is or is not likely to be a PFIC, (iii) upon a determination by the Company (in consultation with its External Accountants) that it is, may be, or is likely to become a PFIC for any taxable year, timely provide to OIC the “PFIC Annual Information Statement” within the meaning of U.S. Treasury Regulation Section 1.1295-1(g) for such year and other information reasonably requested by any OIC Fund Entity to permit such OIC Fund Entity to (x) accurately prepare all tax returns and comply with any reporting requirements resulting from such determination and (y) make any election (including a “qualified electing fund” election under Section 1295 of the Code) with respect to the Company and any applicable subsidiary of the Company and to comply with any associated reporting or other requirements incidental to such election;

5. OIC Designors; VCOC Transferees. The OIC Fund Entities who hold the right to designate a Class A Preferred Director to the Board or to appoint a Board Observer, as applicable, are referred to herein as the “OIC Designors”. An OIC Designor may, from time to time, transfer its status as an OIC Designor under this Agreement to another OIC Fund Entity by written notice to the Company and, in such event, the Company will thereupon confirm such transfer in writing to the new OIC Designor. In the event that any OIC Fund Entity transfers all or any portion of its direct or indirect investment in the Company to any other entity that is intended to qualify as a “venture capital operating company” under the Plan Asset Regulation (a “VCOC Transferee”), such VCOC Transferee shall (i) for the avoidance of doubt, be considered an OIC Fund Entity hereunder, (ii) execute a joinder to this Agreement in a form reasonably acceptable to the Company and OIC and thereupon become a party hereto, and (iii) be afforded the same rights and obligations as are afforded to the existing OIC Fund Entities hereunder; provided, however, that in no event will there be more than two OIC Designors at a given time. It is the intention of OIC and the Company that all rights herein constitute direct contractual rights between each OIC Entity and OIC Fund Entity, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand, and that such rights shall be independently enforceable against the Company by each OIC Fund Entity, consistent with each OIC Fund Entity’s status as a “venture capital operating company” as defined in the Plan Asset Regulation, as applicable.

6. Term. This Agreement shall automatically terminate on the earlier of (i) the Observer Right Termination Date or (ii) the date on which OIC elects to terminate this Agreement by written notice to the Company (the “Termination Date”); provided that Section 6 of this Agreement shall survive such termination.

7. Miscellaneous.
