Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the SFLC Share Lending Agreement II, SFLC further lent the SFLC Loan II Shares to Jefferies Capital Services, LLC ("Jefferies Capital") pursuant to a separate share lending agreement (the "Jefferies Shares Lending Agreement") to facilitate short sale transactions by certain investors in the Issuer's convertible notes to hedge their convertible notes investments.

Share loans under the SFLC Share Lending Agreement II would terminate, and the SFLC Loan II Shares were required to be returned to Hemen, on the first business day following the last day of the Loan Period (as defined in the SFLC Share Lending Agreement II) or in the following circumstances: (i) at SFLC's written request, (ii) by a written agreement between Hemen and SFLC, or (iii) by Hemen or SFLC upon the occurrence of a Default (as defined in the SFLC Share Lending Agreement II).
