DESCRIPTION OF COMMON SHARES

 

We were incorporated in the former Netherlands Antilles on April 6, 1990. Following the dissolution of The Netherlands Antilles in late 2010, we became registered, and currently operate, under the provisions of the Curaçao Civil Code, and our affairs are governed by our Articles of Association (the “Articles”) and the Curaçao Civil Code.

 

The maximum nominal capital of the Company shall be € 550,000 divided into 54,000,000 common shares and 1,000,000 preferred shares, each with a nominal value of € 0.01. As at December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, we had 38,679,505, 39,680,630 and 22,004,834 common shares outstanding, respectively. We have no preferred shares outstanding.

 

The following description of our common shares does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Articles, which are filed as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part.

 

Rights and Preferences. The Company has a nominal capital consisting of a maximum number of 54,000,000 common shares and 1,000,000 preferred shares. The Company has only one class of shares of common stock, the common shares, currently outstanding. The rights and preferences of the holders of common shares are summarized below. The Articles authorize a class of preferred shares (the “Preferred Shares”). As of the date of this prospectus, no Preferred Shares are issued and outstanding.

 

Common Shares. Holders of the common shares are entitled to one vote for each whole share on all matters to be voted upon by shareholders, including the election of directors. Holders of the common shares do not have cumulative voting rights in the election of directors. All common shares are equal to each other with respect to liquidation and dividend rights. Holders of the common shares are entitled to receive dividends, subject to shareholder approval, out of funds legally available under Curaçao law. Profits shall be distributed first to holders of any series or class of Preferred Shares, in accordance with their respective ranking, then to the holders of Common Shares. See “Dividend Policy” below. In the event of the liquidation of the Company, all assets available for distribution to the holders of the common shares are distributable among them according to their respective holdings, subject to the preferences of any shares having a preference upon liquidation that may be then outstanding. Holders of the common shares have no preemptive rights to purchase any additional, unissued common shares.

 

Preferred Shares. The Articles permit the board of directors to provide for the issuance of up to 1,000,000 Preferred Shares and the board of directors may establish a class or series of Preferred Shares, the number of shares to be included in any such class or series and the powers, preferences, and rights of the shares of each such series and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof. The authority of the Board with respect to each such series shall include, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the determination of any or all of the following: (i) the number of shares of such class or series and the distinctive designation of the class or series of Preferred Shares from the Preferred Shares of all other series; (ii) whether the class or series of Preferred Shares is entitled to dividends, and the amounts and timing of payment thereof; (iii) the voting powers, if any, of the holders of shares of such series and whether such voting powers are full or limited; (iii) the right to convert the preferred shares into common shares or another series of Preferred Shares; (iv) the redemption rights, if any, applicable to such series, including, without limitation, the redemption price or prices, if any, to be paid for the shares of such series; and (ix) any other preferences permitted by law. Though the actual effect of any such issuance on the rights of the holders of common shares will not be known until our board of directors determines the specific rights of the holders of Preferred Shares, the potential effects of such an issuance include:

 

3
 

 

 

• diluting the voting power of the holders of common shares;

 

• reducing the likelihood that holders of common shares will receive dividend payments;

 

• reducing the likelihood that holders of common shares will receive payments in the event of our liquidation, dissolution, or winding up; and

 

• delaying, deterring or preventing a change-in-control or other corporate takeover.

 

Dividend Policy. Upon review of our consolidated results of operations, financial condition, cash requirements, future prospects and other factors, on January 15, 2013, our Board of Directors determined, subject to shareholder approval, to declare and pay a one-time cash interim dividend of $0.15 per Common Share (or $5.8 million in the aggregate), which interim dividend was paid on February 22, 2013. Our Board of Directors has not yet made a determination as to whether the Company would pay additional dividends in the future. Any determination in the future to pay dividends will be dependent upon the Company’s financial condition and cash requirements and other factors. In addition, the ability of the Company to pay dividends is subject to the limitations of the Curaçao Civil Code, which provides, among other things, that interim dividends, while permitted to be paid periodically during a fiscal year, are subject to a resolution of the Board of Directors in that respect, if justified by the anticipated profits of the Company, as an advance payment of the dividend expected to be declared by the General Meeting of Shareholders. The Curaçao Civil Code also provides that a distribution of dividends can only occur if, at the moment of distribution, the equity of the Company equals at least the nominal capital of the Company and, as a result of the distribution, will not fall below the nominal capital. Nominal capital is the sum of the par values of all of the issued shares of the Company’s capital stock at any moment in time.

 

Changing the Rights of the Shareholders. The general meeting of shareholders decides upon any change in the Articles. A resolution to amend the Articles requires a resolution adopted at a General Meeting of Shareholders by the holder or holders of at least a majority of the shares of the Company at the time outstanding and entitled to vote, provided that the Company shall not, without the affirmative vote of the holders of 66% of any then outstanding series or class of Preferred Shares voting in a Special Class Meeting, amend the Articles in any manner that adversely affects the preferences, powers, rights, or privileges of the holders of such series or class of Preferred Shares.

 

General Meetings. At least one general meeting of shareholders must be held each year. General meetings must be held in Curaçao. Special general meetings of shareholders may be called at any time by the Chairman, the Co-Chairman of the Board or by the Board of Directors upon no less than 12 nor more than 60 days’ written notice to the Company’s shareholders. Every shareholder, each person entitled to vote and each board member has the right to attend any meeting of shareholders in person or by proxy and to address the meeting. No action may be taken at any meeting of shareholders unless a quorum consisting of holders of at least one-half of the shares outstanding and entitled to vote are present at the meeting in person or by proxy.

 

Limitations to Own Securities. The Articles contain no limits on the right to own securities.

 

Change of Control. The Articles contain no provisions that would prevent or delay a change of control of the Company.

 

Disclosure of Ownership. The shares shall be entered into a share register, which is kept by the Board of Directors or by a registrar designated thereto by the Board of Directors. The entry shall mention amongst other things the name and address of the shareholder. The National Ordinance Holdings in Listed Companies 1991 imposes disclosure requirements if a shareholder holds voting rights in corporations which are incorporated in accordance with the former Netherlands Antilles/Curaçao law and are listed or traded on certain specified stock exchanges. The Nasdaq Capital Market is not one of them.

 

Board of Directors. In case of a conflict of interest between the Company and one or more directors, acting either in private or ex officio, the Company shall be represented by a person appointed thereto by the General Meeting of Shareholders or the Board of Directors. A director who knows or ought to understand that in a certain instance there is mention of a conflicting interest between the Company and him acting privately or ex officio, will timely inform the General Meeting of Shareholders or Board of Directors of such conflict of interest. No conflict of interest will be deemed to exist between the Company and one or more of its directors in case of a contract or transaction between the Company and any other corporation, partnership, association, or other organization in which one or more directors are directors or officers, or have a financial interest, solely for this reason, or solely because the director is present or participates in the meeting of the Board of Directors or Committee thereof which authorizes the contract or transaction, or solely because his or their votes are counted for such purpose if : (a) the material facts are disclosed or are known to the Board of Directors, (b) the material facts are disclosed or are known to the shareholders entitled to vote thereon, (c) the contract or transaction is fair as to the Company as of the time it is authorized, approved or ratified by the Board of Directors, a Committee thereof or the shareholders. Common or interested directors may be counted in determining the presence of a quorum at a meeting of the Board of Directors or of a Committee which authorizes the contract or transaction.

The Articles do not grant borrowing powers to individual directors; nor do they require directors to resign at a certain age or to purchase a certain number of common shares.

 

 

SELLING SHAREHOLDERS

 

The selling shareholders, including their transferees, pledges, donees or their successors, may from time to time offer and sell pursuant to this prospectus and the applicable prospectus supplement up to an aggregate of 6,000,000 common shares.

 

The selling shareholders originally acquired the common shares in connection with our acquisition of IDIT I.D.I. Technologies Ltd. (“IDIT”) and FIS Software Ltd. (“FIS”), which was consummated on August 21, 2011. On such date, we entered into a Registration Rights Agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) with the former shareholders of IDIT and FIS (collectively, the “Holders”). Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, the Holders are entitled to piggyback registration rights in connection with any registration statement we file (subject to customary exceptions). The Holders also agreed to execute a lock-up agreement if requested by the representative of the underwriters in any underwritten offering. The common shares to be sold by the selling shareholders are included in this shelf registration statement pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement. The foregoing summary of the Registration Rights Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the registration rights agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part.

 

We will identify the selling shareholders in a prospectus supplement filed pursuant to Securities Act Rule 424(b)(7), as permitted by Rule 430B(b)(2). We will not receive any proceeds from the sales of common shares by the selling shareholders.

 

 

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

 

We and/or the selling shareholders may sell or distribute our common shares from time to time in one or more public or private transactions:

 

 

 

through underwriters;

 

   

through agents;

In particular, the selling shareholders (including any pledgee, donee, transferee or other successor-in-interest) may sell or distribute their common shares from time to time in one or more public or private transactions, including:

 

 

 

 

block trades, including block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate a transaction;

 

   

on any exchange or quotation service or in the over-the-counter market;

 

   

in transactions otherwise than on an exchange or systems or in the over-the-counter market;

 

   

through the writing or settlement of put or call options relating to such securities, whether such put or call options are listed on a put or call option exchange or otherwise;

 

   

ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers;

 

   

purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;

 

   

an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;

 

   

the short sales of such securities;

 

   

broker-dealers may agree with the selling shareholders to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share;

 

   

through the lending of such securities;

 

   

by pledge to secure debts and other obligations or on foreclosure of a pledge;

 

   

through the distribution of such securities by the selling shareholders to their partners, members or shareholders;

 

   

through a combination of any of the above; and

 

   

any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

 

Any sale or distribution may be effected by us or the selling shareholders:

 

 

 

at market prices prevailing at the time of sale;

       
   

at varying prices determined at the time of sale; or

We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale by the selling shareholders of the common shares. If the common shares are sold by the selling shareholders through underwriters or broker-dealers, the selling shareholders will be responsible for underwriting discounts or commissions or agent’s commissions.

 

At any time a particular offer of the common shares is made, a prospectus supplement, if required, will be distributed and set forth the terms of each specific offering, including the name or names of any underwriters or agents, the purchase price of the common shares and the proceeds to us and/or the selling shareholders from such sales or distribution, any delayed delivery arrangements, any underwriting discounts and other items constituting underwriters’ compensation, any initial public offering price and any discounts or concessions allowed or reallowed or paid to dealers. Any initial public offering price and any discounts or concessions allowed or reallowed or paid to dealers may be changed from time to time.

 

6
 

 

 

In compliance with certain guidelines of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, or FINRA, with respect to shelf registration statements, the maximum commission or discount to be received by any FINRA member or independent broker-dealer may not exceed 8% of the aggregate amount of securities offered pursuant to this prospectus and any applicable prospectus supplement.

 

In addition, we may distribute the common shares as a dividend or in a rights offering to our existing security holders. In some cases, we and/or the selling shareholders or dealers acting for us and/or the selling shareholders or on behalf of us and/or the selling shareholders may also repurchase the common shares and reoffer them to the public by one or more of the methods described above.

 

Through Underwriters

If underwriters are used in a sale or distribution, the common shares will be acquired by the underwriters for their own account and may be resold from time to time in one or more transactions, including negotiated transactions, at a fixed public offering price or at varying prices determined at the time of sale. The underwriters may sell or distribute the common shares in order to facilitate transactions in any of our other securities (described in this prospectus or otherwise), including other public or private transactions and short sales. The common shares may be offered to the public either through underwriting syndicates represented by one or more managing underwriters or directly by one or more firms acting as underwriters. The underwriter or underwriters with respect to a particular underwritten offering and, if an underwriting syndicate is used, the managing underwriter or underwriters will be set forth on the cover of such prospectus supplement. Unless otherwise set forth in the prospectus supplement, the underwriters will be obligated to purchase all the common shares if any are purchased.

 

During and after an offering through underwriters, the underwriters may purchase and sell or distribute the common shares in the open market. These transactions may include overallotment and stabilizing transactions and purchases to cover syndicate short positions created in connection with the offering. The underwriters also may impose a penalty bid, under which selling concessions allowed to syndicate members or other broker-dealers for the securities they sell or distribute for their account may be reclaimed by the syndicate if the syndicate repurchases the securities in stabilizing or covering transactions. These activities may stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the market price of the securities then offered, which may be higher than the price that might otherwise prevail in the open market, and, if commenced, may be discontinued at any time.

 

Through Agents or to Dealers

 

We and/or the selling shareholders may sell or distribute the common shares directly or through agents we and/or the selling shareholders designate from time to time. Unless otherwise indicated in a prospectus supplement, any such agent will be acting on a best efforts basis for the period of its appointment.

 

If dealers are used in any of the sales or distribution of the common shares covered by this prospectus, we and/or the selling shareholders will sell those securities to dealers as principals. The dealers may then resell the securities to the public at varying prices the dealers determine at the time of resale.

 

Direct Sales

 

We and/or the selling shareholders may sell or distribute the common shares directly to institutional investors or others who may be deemed to be underwriters within the meaning of the Securities Act with respect to any sale thereof.

 

Delayed Delivery

 

If so indicated in a prospectus supplement, we and/or the selling shareholders may authorize agents, underwriters or dealers to solicit offers from certain types of institutions to purchase the common shares from us and/or the selling shareholders at the public offering price set forth in the prospectus supplement pursuant to delayed delivery contracts providing for payment and delivery on a specified date in the future. These contracts will be subject only to those conditions set forth in the prospectus supplement, and the prospectus supplement will set forth the commission payable for solicitation of such contracts.

Derivative Transactions and Hedging

 

We and/or the selling shareholders and the underwriters may engage in derivative transactions involving the common shares. These derivatives may consist of short sale transactions and other hedging activities. The underwriters may acquire a long or short position in the securities, hold or resell securities acquired and purchase options or futures on the securities and other derivative instruments with returns linked to or related to changes in the price of the securities. In order to facilitate these derivative transactions, we and/or the selling shareholders may enter into security lending or repurchase agreements with the underwriters. The underwriters may effect the derivative transactions through sales or distributions of the securities to the public, including short sales, or by lending the securities in order to facilitate short sale transactions by others. The underwriters may also use the securities purchased or borrowed from us and/or the selling shareholders or others (or, in the case of derivatives, securities received from us and/or the selling shareholders in settlement of those derivatives) to directly or indirectly settle sales of the securities or close out any related open borrowings of the securities.

 

Loans of Securities

 

We or the selling shareholders may loan or pledge the common shares to a financial institution or other third party that in turn may sell the securities using this prospectus and an applicable prospectus supplement.

 

General

 

Agents, dealers, the selling shareholders and direct purchasers that participate in the distribution of the offered securities may be underwriters as defined in the Securities Act and any discounts or commissions they receive from us and/or the selling shareholders and any profit on the resale of the offered securities by them may be treated as underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act. Agents, dealers and underwriters may be entitled under agreements entered into with us and/or the selling shareholders to indemnification by us and/or the selling shareholders against certain civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, or to contribution with respect to payments which such agents, dealers or underwriters may be required to make in respect thereof. Agents, dealers and underwriters may be customers of, engage in transactions with, or perform services on our and/or the selling shareholders’ behalf.

 

A selling shareholder also may resell all or a portion of its common shares in open market transactions in reliance upon Rule 144 under the Securities Act, provided it meets the criteria and conform to the requirements of Rule 144.

 

 

WHERE YOU CAN FIND MORE INFORMATION

 

We have filed with the SEC a registration statement on Form F-3, of which this prospectus is part, with respect to the common shares we and the selling shareholders will offer. This prospectus and any accompanying prospectus supplement do not contain all the information contained in the registration statement, including its exhibits and schedules. You should refer to the registration statement, including the exhibits and schedules, for further information about us and the common shares we and the selling shareholders may offer. Statements we make in this prospectus and any accompanying prospectus supplement about certain contracts or other documents are not necessarily complete. When we make such statements, we refer you to the copies of the contracts or documents that are filed as exhibits to the registration statement, because those statements are qualified in all respects by reference to those exhibits. The registration statement, including exhibits and schedules, is on file at the office of the SEC and may be inspected without charge.

 

We are subject to the periodic reporting and other informational requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act. Under the Exchange Act, we are required to file annual and special reports and other information with the SEC. As a foreign private issuer, we are exempt from the rules under the Exchange Act prescribing the furnishing and content of proxy statements and our officers, directors and principal shareholders are exempt from the reporting and short-swing profit recovery provisions contained in Section 16 of the Exchange Act.

INCORPORATION BY REFERENCE

 

The SEC allows us to “incorporate by reference” into this prospectus the information in documents we file with it. This means that we can disclose important information to you by referring you to those documents. Each document incorporated by reference is current only as of the date of such document, and the incorporation by reference of such documents shall not create any implication that there has been no change in our affairs since the date thereof or that the information contained therein is current as of any time subsequent to its date. The information incorporated by reference is considered to be a part of this prospectus and should be read with the same care. When we update the information contained in documents that have been incorporated by reference by making future filings with the SEC, the information incorporated by reference in this prospectus is considered to be automatically updated and superseded. In other words, in the case of a conflict or inconsistency between information contained in this prospectus and information incorporated by reference into this prospectus, you should rely on the information contained in the document that was filed later.

 

We incorporate by reference the documents listed below:

 

   

our annual report on Form 20-F (File No. 000-20181) for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012 filed with the SEC on March 11, 2013;

ENFORCEMENT OF CIVIL LIABILITIES

 

We are organized under the laws of Curaçao and our managing directors reside outside the United States, and substantially all of our assets are located outside the United States. As a result, it may not be possible to effect service of process within the United States on us or any such person or to enforce against us or any such person judgments obtained in United States courts predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the federal securities laws of the United States.

 

The United States and Curaçao do not currently have a treaty providing for reciprocal recognition and enforcement of judgments in civil and commercial matters. Therefore, a final judgment for the payment of money rendered by any federal or state court in the United States based on civil liability, whether or not predicated solely upon the federal securities laws of the United States, would not be directly enforceable in Curaçao.

 

9
 

 

 

In order to obtain a judgment that is enforceable in Curaçao the claim must be relitigated before a competent court in Curaçao. Under current practice, a judgment rendered in the United States will be recognized by a Curaçao court provided that:

 

(1) if that judgment results from proceedings compatible with Curaçao concepts of due process; and

(2) if the judgment does not contravene the public policy of Curaçao.

If the judgment is recognized by a Curaçao court, that court will generally grant the same award without review of the merits of the case. 

 

LEGAL MATTERS

 

The validity of our common shares will be passed upon by Spigt Dutch Caribbean N.V., our Curaçao counsel.

 

 

EXPERTS

 

Our consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2012 and 2011 and for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 incorporated in this prospectus by reference to our annual report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2012 have been audited by Kost Forer Gabbay & Kasierer (a member of Ernst & Young Global), an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report, which is incorporated herein by reference, and given on their authority as experts in accounting and auditing.

PART II

 

INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS

 

Item 8. Indemnification of Directors and Officers

 

Exemption of Office Holders

 

Book 2 of the Curaçao Civil Code, which deals with company law and applies to us as a Curaçao company, does not prohibit a company from exempting the members of the board of management or their supervisory board from liability against claims by third parties, nor does Curaçao law impose specific restrictions on such exemption, except in cases of willful misconduct or major negligence. In accordance with legal literature it is not possible for the Company to indemnify the directors for improper management in the event of gross negligence and willful misconduct.

 

Indemnification and Insurance

 

Article XII of our Articles of Association, as amended, provides as follows:

 

“12.1 The Company shall have the power to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the Company) by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company, or is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise or entity against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interest of the Company, and with request to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful.

 

12.2 The Company shall have the power to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the Company to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company, or is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise or entity against expenses (including attorneys fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company and except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been finally adjudged to be liable to the company for improper conduct unless and only to the extent that the court in which such action or suit was brought or any other court having appropriate jurisdiction shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement which the court in which the action or suit was brought or such other court having appropriate jurisdiction shall deem proper.

 

12.3 To the extent that a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in paragraphs 1 and 2 of this Article XII, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, he shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection therewith.

 

12.4 Any indemnification under paragraphs 1 and 2 of this Article XII (unless ordered by a court) shall be made by the Company only as authorized by contract approved, or by-laws, resolution or other action adopted or taken, by the Board of Directors or by the shareholders.

 

12.5 Expenses incurred in defending a civil or criminal action, suit or proceeding will be paid by the Company in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the director, officer, employee or agent to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that he is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company as authorized by this Article XII.

 

12.6 The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by or granted pursuant to the other paragraphs of this Article XII shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under any law, by-law, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors, or otherwise, both as to action in his official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office, and shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such person.

 

II-1
 

 

 

12.7 The Company shall have power to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company, or is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any liability asserted against him and incurred by him in any such capacity, or arising out of his status as such, whether or not the Company would have the power to indemnify him against such liability under the provisions of this Article XII.

 

12.8 For purpose of this Article XII, reference to the Company shall include, in addition to the resulting corporation, any constituent corporation (including any constituent of a constituent) absorbed in a consolidation or merger which, if its separate existence had continued, would have had power and authority to indemnify his directors, officers, and employees or agents, so that any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of such constituent corporation, or is or was serving at the request of such constituent corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, shall stand in the same position under the provisions of this Article XII with respect to the resulting or surviving corporation as he would have with respect to such constituent corporation if its separate existence had continued.”

 

Pursuant to the aforesaid allowances under Article XII of our Articles of Association, we have entered into indemnification agreements with our executive officers and directors. The amount of indemnification that we provide to our executive officers under these agreements is not specifically limited, except to the extent that Curaçao law may impose any limitation.

Item 10. Undertakings

 

(A) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

 

  (1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

 

  (i) to include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

 

  (ii) to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or any decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and

 

  (iii) to include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;
     
  provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i), (a)(1)(ii) and (a)(1)(iii) of this section do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the SEC by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement, or is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) that is part of the registration statement.

 

  (2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

 

  (3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

 

  (4)  To file a post-effective amendment to the registration statement to include any financial statements required by Item 8.A of Form 20-F at the start of any delayed offering or throughout a continuous offering. Financial statements and information otherwise required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933 need not be furnished, provided, that the registrant includes in the prospectus, by means of a post-effective amendment, financial statements required pursuant to this paragraph (a)(4) and other information necessary to ensure that all other information in the prospectus is at least as current as the date of those financial statements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to registration statements on Form F-3, a post-effective amendment need not be filed to include financial statements and information required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933 or Rule 3-19 of Regulation S-X if such financial statements and information are contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the SEC by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in this Form F-3.

 

  (5) That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser:

 

  (i) each prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) shall be deemed to be part of the registration statement as of the date the filed prospectus was deemed part of and included in the registration statement; and

 

  (ii) each prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5), or (b)(7) as part of a registration statement in reliance on Rule 430B relating to an offering made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(1)(i), (vii), or (x) for the purpose of providing the information required by section 10(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the earlier of the date such form of prospectus is first used after effectiveness or the date of the first contract of sale of securities in the offering described in the prospectus. As provided in Rule 430B, for liability purposes of the issuer and any person that is at that date an underwriter, such date shall be deemed to be a new effective date of the registration statement relating to the securities in the registration statement to which that prospectus relates, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such effective date, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such effective date.

 

II-3
 

 

 

 

  (6) That, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities:
     
    The undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:

 

  (i) any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;

 

  (ii) any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;

 

  (iii) the portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and

 

  (iv) any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.

 

(B) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

 

(C) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
