On July 15, 2019, the Original Consortium entered into a consortium agreement (the Consortium Agreement, incorporated herewith as Exhibit 99.3), pursuant to which members of the Original Consortium agreed to cooperate in connection with the Proposed Transaction as contemplated by the Proposal. The Consortium Agreement provides, among other things, for coordination in the evaluation of the Issuer, arranging financing, engaging advisors, and negotiation of the terms of definitive documentation in connection with the Proposed Transaction. The Consortium Agreement also requires that, for a period beginning on the signing date of the Consortium Agreement and ending on the earlier of (i) the 9-month anniversary of such date, and (ii) the termination of the Consortium Agreement pursuant to the terms thereof, members of the Consortium (as defined below) work exclusively with each other with respect to the Proposed Transaction.

Neither the Issuer nor any member of the Consortium is obligated to complete the Proposed Transaction, and a binding commitment with respect to the Proposed Transaction will result only from the execution of definitive documents, and then will be on the terms provided in such documentation.

If the Proposed Transaction is completed, the Issuers ADSs would become eligible for termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Act and would be delisted from the Nasdaq Global Select Market.

References to each of the Consortium Agreement and the Proposal in this Statement are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Consortium Agreement or the Proposal, which are attached hereto as exhibits or incorporated herein by reference as if set forth in their entirety herein.
