  a)

Without limiting any other rights or remedies of the Company, for all purposes of this Agreement, each Equity Holder hereby appoints the Company, and any designee of either of them, and each of them individually, as its proxies, agents and attorneys-in-fact, with full power of substitution and resubstitution, to vote or act by written consent during the term of this Agreement with respect to the matters set forth herein in the name and in the stead of such Equity Holder, including to attend on behalf of such Equity Holder any meeting of the Equity Holders or Shares with respect to the Corporate Approvals, to include the Equity Interests or Shares in any computation for purposes of establishing a quorum at any such meeting of the Equity Holders or Shares, to vote (or cause to be voted, as applicable) the Equity Interests or Shares or consent or approve (or withhold consent or approval, as applicable) with respect to any of the Corporate Approvals in connection with any meeting of the Equity Holders, any action by written consent or any other approval by the Equity Holders.

1.5.    Further Assurances. During the term of this Agreement, each Equity Holder and Optionee agrees that it shall not take any action that would reasonably be expected to prevent, impede, interfere with or adversely affect any Equity Holder’s, the Company’s and/or Newco’s ability to perform its obligations under this Agreement and/or the Business Combination Agreement, except as expressly contemplated by this Agreement or the Business Combination Agreement. Each Equity Holder hereby agrees to promptly execute and deliver all additional agreements, documents or instruments, take, or cause to be taken, all actions and provide, or cause to be provided, all additional information or other materials as may be necessary or advisable, in each case, as reasonably determined by SPAC and the Company, in connection with, or otherwise in furtherance of, the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement or this Agreement.

Without limiting the above, each of the Equity Holders who are a party to the agreements set forth on Schedule B hereby expressly and irrevocably acknowledge and agree that all terms and conditions of the respective agreements to which they are a party to were duly observed or waived, as applicable. For purposes of clarification, despite the completion of the contribution set forth in this Agreement, the Shareholder’s Agreement shall remain in full force, mutatis mutandis, until the Closing is consummated.

Each Equity Holder hereby agrees to be bound by and subject to (i) Sections 7.4 (Confidentiality; Communications Plan; Access to Information), 7.6 (No SPAC Securities Transactions), and 7.8 (Disclosure of Certain Matters) of the Business Combination Agreement to the same extent as such provisions apply to the parties to the Business Combination Agreement, as if such Equity Holder is directly party thereto, and (ii) Section 7.7 (No Claim Against Trust Account) and Section 7.10(a) (No Solicitation) of the Business Combination Agreement to the same extent as such provisions apply to the Company, as if the Equity Holder is directly party thereto.

1.8.    Transfers of Equity Interests or Shares Prior to Closing. Except as expressly contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement or this Agreement or with the prior written consent of SPAC (such consent to be given or withheld in its sole discretion), from and after the date hereof until the earlier of the Closing or the termination of the Business Combination Agreement in accordance with

 

4


its terms, each Equity Holder agrees not to (a) Transfer any of the Equity Interests or Shares, (b) enter into any option, warrant, purchase right or other Contract that could (either alone or in connection with one or more events, developments or events (including the satisfaction or waiver of any conditions precedent)) require the Equity Holder to Transfer any of the Equity Interests or Shares, or (c) take any actions in furtherance of any of the matters described in the foregoing clauses (a) or (b).

For purposes of this Agreement, (a) “Beneficially Own” has the meaning ascribed to it in the Exchange Act; (b) “Transfer” shall mean the (i) direct or indirect transfer, sale or assignment of, offer to sell, contract or any agreement to sell, hypothecate, pledge, encumber grant of any option to purchase or otherwise dispose of, either voluntarily or involuntarily, or any agreement to dispose of, directly or indirectly, or establishment or increase of a put equivalent position or liquidation with respect to or decrease of a call equivalent position within the meaning of Section 16 of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the SEC promulgated thereunder with respect to, any security, (ii) entry into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of any security, whether any such transaction is to be settled by delivery of such securities, in cash or otherwise, or (iii) public announcement of any intention to effect any transaction specified in clause (b)(i) or (b)(ii); and (c) “immediate family” shall mean a spouse, domestic partner, child, grandchild or other lineal descendant (including by adoption), father, mother, brother or sister of the applicable party hereto; and “affiliate” shall have the meaning set forth in Rule 405 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

ARTICLE II

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE EQUITY HOLDER

2.1.    Each Equity Holder (including for purposes of this Article II, each Optionee) hereby represents and warrants to Newco, SPAC and New PubCo that:

 

6


  a)

Title. Each Equity Holder and Optionee holds good, valid and marketable title to the Equity Interests and Options set forth opposite the Equity Holder’s name on Schedule A, free and clear of any mortgage, pledge, security interest, conditional sale or other title retention agreement, encumbrance, lien, easement, option, debt, charge, claim or restriction of any kind except as set forth in Schedule A.

 

  b)

Authorization. Each Equity Holder and Optionee has full power and authority (including any spouse consent) to enter into this Agreement, and this Agreement, assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery of this Agreement by all other parties, constitutes its valid and legally binding obligation, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy Legal Requirements, other similar Legal Requirements affecting creditors’ rights and general principles of equity affecting the availability of specific performance and other equitable remedies.

 

  c)

No Conflict. Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Equity Holder nor the performance of the Equity Holder’s obligations hereunder (i) violates any provision of any Legal Requirements applicable to the Equity Holder, (ii) if the Equity Holder is not an individual, would, directly or indirectly, result in any breach of any provision of the Equity Holder’s Governing Documents, (iii) conflicts with, result in a breach under or give rise to any right of termination of any document, agreement or instrument to which the Equity Holder is a party, or (iv) result in the creation or imposition of any mortgage, pledge, security interest, conditional sale or other title retention agreement, encumbrance, lien, easement, option, debt, charge, claim or restriction of any kind upon the Equity Interests except as disclosed on Schedule A.

 

  d)

No Consents. No consent, waiver, approval, order or authorization of, or registration, qualification, designation, declaration or filing with, any court, administrative agency or commission or any other governmental authority, instrumentality, agency or commission or any third party (including a party to any agreement with the Equity Holder, the Optionee or any spouse consent), is required by or with respect to the delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

 

  e)

Ownership. The Equity Holder is the beneficial and record owner of the Equity Interests set forth next to the Equity Holder’s name on Schedule A. The Equity Interests and Options set forth on Schedule A collectively constitute 100% of the Equity Holder’s interest in the Company and the Equity Holder does not own, beneficially or of record, any other equity, equity-linked or similar securities of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or have the right to acquire any equity, equity-linked or similar securities of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. The Equity Holder acknowledges that the Equity Holder’s agreement to contribute all of the equity securities of the Company held by the Equity Holder is a material inducement to Newco’s willingness to issue to the Equity Holder, or to the respective wholly owned subsidiary if applicable, the Shares. As such, if after the execution of this Agreement it is discovered that the Equity Holder is directly or indirectly the owner of any additional membership, equity or ownership interests not reflected next to the Equity Holder’s name on Schedule A (an “Undisclosed Interest”), the Equity Holder hereby agrees to contribute, assign, transfer, convey and deliver to Newco all of the Equity Holder’s right, title and interest in and to such Undisclosed Interest. By executing this Agreement, each Equity Holder further represents that it does not have any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any person to sell, transfer or grant participations to such person or to any person, with respect to any of the Equity Interests except as disclosed on Schedule A. The Equity Holder has the sole right to vote (and provide consent in respect of, as

 

7


  applicable) the Equity Interests set forth next to the Equity Holder’s name on Schedule A and, except for this Agreement, the Business Combination Agreement and as disclosed on Schedule A, the Equity Holder is not party to or bound by (i) any option, warrant, purchase right, or other Contract that could (either alone or in connection with one or more events, developments or events (including the satisfaction or waiver of any conditions precedent)) require the Equity Holder to Transfer any of the Equity Interests or (ii) any voting trust, proxy or other Contract with respect to the voting or Transfer of any of the Equity Interests.

 

  f)

There is no Legal Proceeding pending or, to the Equity Holder’s knowledge, threatened against or involving the Equity Holder or any of his, her or its Affiliates that, if adversely decided or resolved, would reasonably be expected to adversely affect the ability of the Equity Holder to perform, or otherwise comply with, any of its covenants, agreements or obligations under this Agreement in any material respect.

 

  g)

There is no Order or Legal Requirement issued by any court of competent jurisdiction or other Governmental Entity, or other legal restraint or prohibition relating to the Equity Holder or any of his, her or its Affiliates that could reasonably be expected to adversely affect the ability of the Equity Holder to perform, or otherwise comply with, any of its covenants, agreements or obligations under this Agreement in any material respect.

 

  h)

The Equity Holder, on his, her or its own behalf and on behalf of his, her or its Representatives, acknowledges, represents, warrants and agrees that (i) he, she or it has conducted his, her or its own independent review and analysis of, and, based thereon, has formed an independent judgment concerning, the business, assets, condition, operations and prospects of, Newco, SPAC and New PubCo and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the Business Combination Agreement and the other Transaction Agreements and (ii) he, she or it has been furnished with or given access to such documents and information about Newco, SPAC and New PubCo and their respective businesses and operations as he, she or it and his, her or its Representatives have deemed necessary to enable him, her or it to make an informed decision with respect to the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement or the other Transaction Agreements to which he, she or it is or will be a party and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby.

 

  i)

In entering into this Agreement and the other Transaction Agreements to which he, she or it is or will be a party, the Equity Holder has relied solely on his, her or its own investigation and analysis and the representations and warranties expressly set forth in the Transaction Agreements to which he, she or it is or will be a party and no other representations or warranties of Newco, SPAC or New PubCo (including, for the avoidance of doubt, none of the representations or warranties of SPAC or New PubCo set forth in the Business Combination Agreement or any other Transaction Agreement) or any other Person, either express or implied, and the Equity Holder, on his, her or its own behalf and on behalf of his, her or its Representatives, acknowledges, represents, warrants and agrees that, except for the representations and warranties expressly set forth in this Agreement or in the other Transaction Agreements to which he, she or it is or will be a party, none of Newco, SPAC or New PubCo or any other Person makes or has made any representation or warranty, either express or implied, in connection with or related to this Agreement, the Business Combination Agreement or the other Transaction Agreements or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.
