Each of Omega, the Direct Sellers, the Buyers and Parent is referred to herein as a “Party” and together the “Parties”. Except as otherwise indicated herein or unless the context otherwise requires, capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the EPA (as defined below).
WHEREAS, the Parties have entered into that certain Equity Purchase Agreement, dated as of September 8, 2024 (the “EPA”);
WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 8.8 of the EPA, the EPA may be amended by an instrument in writing signed on behalf of each of the parties to the EPA; and
WHEREAS, each Party desires to amend the EPA in certain respects as described, and subject to the terms and conditions set forth, in this Amendment.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual agreements hereinafter set out and of other consideration (the receipt and sufficiency of which are acknowledged), the Parties agree as follows:
1.Amendments to the EPA. Section 4.12(c) of the EPA is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
“(c) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Omega shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause (i) the N-7 Marketing Agreement to be terminated, and all of its obligations and liabilities to be discharged thereunder, in each case, only as it relates to OCI Beaumont LLC; (ii) the Contracts listed in Section 4.12(c) of the Disclosure Letter, and any other Contracts for ammonia sales entered into by N-7 LLC in the ordinary course of business after the date of this Agreement, to be assigned to OCI Beaumont LLC from N-7 LLC, to the extent such Contracts are related to the US/NL Business, in the case of each of clauses (i) and (ii), effective as of, or at any time prior to, the US/NL Closing (the Contracts contemplated in clauses (i) and (ii), collectively, the “N-7 Agreements”), provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, (A) the effectiveness of any such assignment shall not be a condition to the US/NL Closing and (B) following the termination of the N-7 Marketing Agreement as contemplated by clause (i), OCI Beaumont LLC or any other Target Company may enter into any Contracts for ammonia sales on terms and conditions substantially consistent with the terms and conditions reflected in Contracts for ammonia sales entered into by N-7 LLC in the ordinary course of business prior to such termination; and (iii) the termination, extinguishment or settlement (as applicable) of any intercompany Indebtedness or Trade Amount pursuant to Section 4.12(a) and the termination of any Intercompany Obligation pursuant to Section 4.12(b) to occur in a form that prevents the realization of any material cancellation of debt income for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of qualifying for the exception under either Section 108(e)(6) or Section 108(e)(i) of the Code.”
2.Representations and Warranties of the Parties. Each Party represents and warrants to the other Parties that:
(a)it has the power and authority necessary to execute and deliver this Amendment and to perform its obligations and consummate the transactions contemplated hereunder;
(b)the execution and delivery of, and the performance of its obligations under, this Amendment, and the consummation by such Party of the transactions contemplated hereunder, have been duly authorized by all requisite corporate or similar organizational action on behalf of such Party, and no other corporate proceedings on the part of such Party are necessary to authorize the execution, delivery and performance by such Party of this Amendment; and
(c)assuming this Amendment constitute the valid and legally binding obligations of the other Parties, this Amendment constitutes the valid and legally binding obligations of such Party, enforceable against such Party in accordance with their terms, subject to applicable Enforceability Exceptions.
3.References. Each reference to “hereof,” “herein,” “hereunder,” “hereby,” “this Agreement” and words of similar import set forth in the EPA shall, from and after the date of this Amendment, refer to the EPA as amended by this Amendment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, references to the date of the EPA, as amended hereby, including references to “the date hereof,” “the date of this Agreement” and words of similar import, shall in all instances continue to refer to September 8, 2024.
4.Effect of Amendment. Except as expressly modified hereby, the EPA remains unchanged and in full force and effect in accordance with its terms. Upon the execution and delivery of this
Amendment, the EPA shall thereupon be deemed to be amended as hereinabove set forth as fully and with the same effect as if the amendments and supplements made hereby were originally set forth in the EPA, and this Amendment and the EPA shall henceforth be read, taken and construed as one and the same instrument, but such amendments and supplements shall not operate so as to render invalid or improper any action heretofore taken under the EPA.
5.General Provisions. Sections 8.1 (Survival), 8.2 (Notices), 8.3 (Interpretation), 8.4 (Counterparts; Effectiveness), 8.5 (Entire Agreement; Third Party Beneficiaries), 8.6 (Severability), 8.7 (Assignments; Change of Control), 8.8 (Amendments), 8.9 (Extension; Waiver) 8.10 (Governing Law and Venue; Waiver of Jury Trial), 8.12 (Fees; Expenses), 8.13 (Nonrecourse) and 8.17 (Guaranty) are incorporated by reference into this Amendment, mutatis mutandis.
