Item 4.
Purpose of Transaction

Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

On November 3, 2023, the Company announced the launch of the Exchange Offer, pursuant to which each current holder of Notes may tender their Notes to the Company in exchange for their pro rata share of New Notes and New Shares.

Also on November 3, 2023, the Transaction Support Agreement was amended by Amendment No. 1 to the Transaction Support Agreement (“Amendment No. 1 to the Transaction Support Agreement”) in order to, among other things, extend the Outside Date (as defined in the Transaction Support Agreement) from November 15, 2023 to December 15, 2023 (or to January 15, 2024, if the Transactions have not been consummated by December 15, 2023 because the Issuer’s registration statement on Form F-1 has not yet been declared effective by the Commission or because the Commission’s review of the Schedule TO filed in connection with the Exchange Offer has not been completed, in each case for reasons outside of the Company’s control).

The foregoing description of Amendment No. 1 to the Transaction Support Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to Amendment No. 1 to the Transaction Support Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 12 to this Schedule 13D and is incorporated by reference herein.

Item 6.
Contracts, Arrangements, Undertakings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer

Item 6 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

The response to Item 4 of this Amendment No. 8 is incorporated by reference herein.

Except as otherwise set forth in the Schedule 13D, as amended by this Amendment No. 8, there are no contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships between the Reporting Persons named in Item 2 and any other person with respect to any securities of the Issuer.

Item 7.
Material to be Filed as Exhibits

Item 7 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

Exhibit 12 – Amendment No. 1 to the Transaction Support Agreement, dated November 3, 2023 (incorporated herein by reference to Exhibit 99.2 to the Issuer’s current report on Form 6-K filed with the Commission on November 3, 2023).
