ISIN: XS1799977548 COMMON CODE: 179997754

(the "Notes" or the "Series" and the holders thereof the "Noteholders")

Capitalised terms used but not otherwise defined in this notice shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Series Memorandum dated 5 October 2018 as amended and restated on 24 April 2018 and the Conditions of the Notes as same may be amended and / or supplemented from time to time.

The purpose of this notice is to inform Noteholders of the extension of the Loan Repayment Date (as defined below) and a writedown of the principal amount owed by the Borrower under the Loan Agreement (as defined below) pursuant to an Extraordinary Resolution dated 3 May 2023.

BACKGROUND

Pursuant to the Term Loan Agreement dated 18 April 2018 between the Issuer as lender and Mizecor S.A. as borrower (the "Borrower") (the "Loan Agreement"), the Lender made a loan to the Borrower in an amount equal to the note proceeds from the issue of the Notes (the "Principal Amount"), which the Borrower was required to repay together with any accrued but unpaid interest (together, the "Outstanding Amount") on 14 April 2023 (the "Loan Repayment Date"), pursuant to clause 6.1 (Repayment) of the Loan Agreement. Furthermore, clause 12.1.1 (Events of Default) provides that failure to pay any amount payable by the Borrower following the expiration of a twenty (20) Business Day period following the date such amount falls due will amount to an Event of Default.

EXTENSION AND WRITEDOWN OF LOAN

On 23 March 2023, the Borrower notified the Issuer that it was: (i) not in a position to repay the Outstanding Amount on the Loan Repayment Date, which amounted to USD3,464,450; or, (ii) make such payment on or within twenty (20) Business Days of the Loan Repayment Date.

Following discussions between the Borrower and the Lender, the Borrower proposed that it would make a payment of an amount less than the Outstanding Amount on or before 31 December 2023 (subject to the Borrower's right to further extend the Loan Repayment Date as described below). Such proposal was submitted to Noteholders for consideration by way of an Extraordinary Resolution.

Accordingly, an Extraordinary Resolution dated 3 May 2023 was passed, pursuant to which the Noteholders agreed that: (a) the Borrower shall make a payment of USD 2,330,000 (the "Settlement Amount") on or before 31 December 2023 (the "Final Payment Date") in full and final discharge of its obligations under the Loan Agreement; (b) the Borrower may, in its discretion, by notice to the Lender extend the Final Payment Date by three months at a time, provided that no more than two extensions shall be permitted; and (c) the Issuer is consented, instructed, and empowered to issue a waiver letter (the "Waiver Letter"), waiving the Borrower's obligation to pay the Outstanding Amount and any Event of Default under the Loan Agreement arising from the failure to make the payment of the Outstanding Amount on or within twenty (20) Business Days of the Loan Repayment Date (the "Waiver"). The Waiver was issued pursuant to the Waiver Letter dated 12 May 2023.

For the avoidance of doubt, in the event that the Settlement Amount is not paid by the Borrower on or before Final Payment Date, the Outstanding Amount shall remain payable in full in accordance with the requirements of clause 6.1 (Repayment) of the Loan Agreement.

It is to be noted that the Scheduled Maturity Date has not been amended. Accordingly, the Notes will be redeemed on the Final Maturity Payment Date, which is expected to occur upon receipt of the Settlement Amount.

No action is required from Noteholders at this time. The Issuer will issue a further communication to Noteholders when the Final Maturity Payment Date is confirmed.
