holder alleges that such certificate has been lost, stolen or destroyed, a lost certificate affidavit and agreement reasonably acceptable to the Company to indemnify the Company against any claim that may be made against the Company on account of the alleged loss, theft or destruction of such certificate) to the Company. If so required by the Company, any certificates surrendered for conversion shall be endorsed or accompanied by written instrument or instruments of transfer, in form satisfactory to the Company, duly executed by the registered holder or by his, her or its attorney duly authorized in writing. All rights with respect to the Preferred Shares converted pursuant to this Section 8(d) will terminate at the time of conversion (notwithstanding the failure of the holder or holders thereof to surrender any certificates at or prior to such time), except only the rights of the holders thereof, upon surrender of any certificate or certificates of such holders (or lost certificate affidavit and agreement) therefor, to receive the items provided for in the next sentence. As soon as practicable after the time of conversion and, if applicable, the surrender of any certificate or certificates (or lost certificate affidavit and agreement) for Preferred Shares, the Company shall (a) issue and deliver to such holder, or to his, her or its nominees, confirmation of the book entry issuance of, or a certificate or certificates for, the number of full Class A Ordinary Shares issuable on such conversion.
The Company shall at all times when the Preferred Shares shall be outstanding, reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued Class A Ordinary Shares, for the purpose of effecting the conversion of the Preferred Shares, such number of its duly authorized Class A Ordinary Shares as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the conversion of all outstanding Preferred Shares and Class B Ordinary Shares; and if at any time the number of authorized but unissued Class A Ordinary Shares shall not be sufficient to effect the conversion of all then outstanding Preferred Shares and Class B Ordinary Shares, the Company shall take such corporate action as may be necessary to increase its authorized but unissued Class A Ordinary to such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purposes, including, without limitation, engaging in best efforts to obtain the requisite Shareholder approval of any necessary amendment to the Articles.

Each whole warrant entitles the registered holder to purchase one Class A Ordinary Share, subject to adjustment as discussed below, at any time commencing 30 days after June 22, 2022. Pursuant to the Warrant Agreement, a holder of a public warrant may exercise its warrants only for a whole number of Class A Ordinary Shares. This means only a whole warrant may be exercised at a given time by a holder. No fractional warrants will be issued and only whole warrants will trade. The public warrants will expire five years after June 22, 2022, at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.
Pagaya will not be obligated to deliver any Class A Ordinary Shares pursuant to the exercise of a public warrant and will have no obligation to settle such warrant exercise unless a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the 「Securities Act」) with respect to the Class A Ordinary Shares underlying the warrants is then effective and a prospectus relating thereto is current, subject to Pagaya satisfying its registration obligations. No public warrant will be exercisable and Pagaya will not be obligated to issue a Class A Ordinary Share upon exercise of a public warrant unless the Class A Ordinary Share issuable upon such warrant exercise has been registered, qualified or deemed to be exempt under the securities laws of the state of residence of the registered holder of the public warrants. In the event that the conditions in the two immediately preceding sentences are not satisfied with respect to a public warrant, the holder of such warrant will not be entitled to exercise such warrant and such warrant may have no value and expire worthless (unless Pagaya permits holders to exercise their public warrants on a 「cashless basis」 under the circumstances specified in the Warrant Agreement and in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act, provided that such exemption is available, but in no event will Pagaya be required to net cash settle any public warrant).
Under the Companies Law, all shareholders generally have the right to review minutes of Pagaya’s general meetings, Pagaya’s shareholder register (including with respect to material shareholders), the Pagaya Articles, Pagaya’s annual financial statements, other documents as provided in the Companies Law, and any document Pagaya is required by law to file publicly with the Israeli Registrar of Companies or the Israel Securities Authority. Any shareholder who specifies the purpose of its request may request to review any document in Pagaya’s possession that relates to any action or transaction with a related party which requires shareholder approval under the Companies Law. Pagaya may deny a request to review a document if it determines that the request was not made in good faith, that the document contains a commercial secret or a patent, or that the document’s disclosure may otherwise impair its interests.

Anti-Takeover Provisions; Acquisitions under Israeli Law
全面要約
A person wishing to acquire shares of a public Israeli company who would, as a result, hold over 90% of the target company’s voting rights or the target company’s issued and outstanding share capital (or of a class thereof), is required by the Companies Law to make a tender offer to all of the company’s shareholders for the purchase of all of the issued and outstanding shares of the company (or the applicable class). If (a) the shareholders who do not accept the offer hold less than 5% of the issued and outstanding share capital of the company (or the applicable class) and the shareholders who accept the offer constitute a majority of the issued and outstanding share capital held by offerees that do not have a personal interest in the acceptance of the tender offer, or (b) the shareholders who did not accept the tender offer hold less than 2% of the issued and outstanding share capital of the company (or of the applicable class), all of the shares that the acquirer offered to purchase will be transferred to the acquirer by operation of law, despite the fact (in the case of alternative (b)) that the shareholders who did accept the tender offer did not constitute a majority of the issued and outstanding share capital held by the disinterested offerees. A shareholder who had its shares so transferred may petition an Israeli court within six months from the date of acceptance of the full tender offer, regardless of whether such shareholder agreed to the offer, to determine whether the tender offer was for less than fair value and whether the fair value should be paid as determined by the court. However, an offeror may provide in the offer that a shareholder who accepted the offer will not be entitled to petition the court for appraisal rights as described in the preceding sentence, as long as the offeror and the company disclosed the information required by law in connection with the full tender offer. If the full tender offer was not accepted in accordance with any of the above alternatives, the acquirer may not acquire shares of the company that will increase its holdings to more than 90% of the company’s voting rights or the company’s issued and outstanding share capital (or of the applicable class) from shareholders who accepted the tender offer. Shares purchased in violation of the full tender offer rules under the Companies Law will have no rights and will become dormant shares.
