The Company shall provide the Optionholder, at the Optionholder’s request, relevant information necessary to take such actions. Issue or transfer of Shares The Company shall take actions to issue or transfer the Shares in respect of which the Option has been validly exercised to the Optionholder within 30 days following the effective date of exercise of the Option. If the Option is exercised in connection with an Exit in the form of a Share Sale or a Liquidation, the Company shall take actions to ensure that the Shares in respect of which the Option has been validly exercised will be transferred or issued to the Optionholder immediately before the completion of the Exit or Liquidation or, at its discretion, make such other arrangements that would put the Optionholder in the position the Optionholder would have been, had the Optionholder been the registered owner of the relevant Shares immediately before the completion of Exit or Liquidation.

If the Company exercises the Call Option, the Optionholder shall take all actions requested by the Company to transfer such Shares to the Company within a period which shall be (a) if the transfer is free of charge: 14 days after the receipt of the Option Notice or (b) if the transfer is at the fair value of Shares (“Fair Value”): 14 days after the determination of Fair Value under this Section 2.11..

If the “Outlined Terms” provide that the Company has the right to request a Good Leaver to transfer the Optionholder’s Shares acquired under the Option back to the Company, but the Optionholder becomes a Good Leaver before exercising the Optionholder’s Option and, accordingly, has not acquired any Shares, the Company has a right to cancel such Option, against payment by the Company of a fair compensation for such Option. The fair compensation shall be equal to the Fair Value of the vested Shares underlying such Option as determined in accordance with Section 2.11.1..
