Re: Open Market Sale

Ladies and Gentlemen:

This letter agreement (this “ Letter Agreement ”) confirms the agreement between Cimpress N.V. (“ Cimpress ”) and you (collectively, the “ Prescott Group ” and each, a “ Prescott Group Member ”) as set forth herein. Reference is hereby made to the common draft terms of merger (“ Common Draft Terms ”) between Cimpress Limited and Cimpress N.V. dated September 17, 2019 providing for Cimpress to change its jurisdiction of incorporation from The Netherlands to Ireland through a cross-border merger. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Common Draft Terms. By executing this Letter Agreement below, Cimpress and the Prescott Group hereby agree that:

1. Open Market Sale . In the event that any Cimpress Shareholder who has voted against the Merger files a Cash Compensation Request in accordance with the terms of the Common Draft Terms, one or more Prescott Group Members will, the same day as the Effective Time of the Merger, effect one or more open market sales (collectively, the “ Open Market Sale ”) through which the Prescott Group collectively will sell a number of ordinary shares of Cimpress (the “ Requisite Amount ”) that is necessary for the Prescott Group to maintain or reduce its per centum holdings in Cimpress plc, the Successor Company, relative to its per centum holdings in Cimpress such that the Prescott Group remains eligible for the exemption provided under 16 CFR § 802.10 from the filing requirements of The Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976 (“ HSR ”). Cimpress will use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with and assist the Prescott Group in determining the Requisite Amount. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Prescott Group Member or any of its respective affiliates makes any representation to Cimpress or the Successor Company or any of their respective affiliates regarding whether the Prescott Group will satisfy such exemption.

2. Expense Reimbursement . Cimpress will reimburse all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by each Prescott Group Member or any of its respective affiliates in respect of third-party advisors retained by any Prescott Group Member and/or its affiliates to assist with the determination of whether an HSR filing is required, including the availability of

and the Open Market Sale, including the filing of one or more Schedule 13D amendments and Forms 4 with the U.S. Securities and
Exchange Commission to report changes in the beneficial ownership of any equity securities of the Prescott Group and its affiliates
as required by the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and rules thereunder (such total amount payable by Cimpress, the “ Reimbursement
Amount ”). Cimpress shall promptly pay the Reimbursement Amount within 30 days after receiving documentation from the
Prescott Group evidencing the Reimbursement Amount. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in no event shall
the Prescott Group be entitled to receive more than an aggregate of $30,000 pursuant to the provisions of this Section 2. |
