Article I
CONVERSION; CONTRIBUTION

1.1 Conversion of the Purchaser. Prior to the Closing, the Purchaser shall consummate the Conversion pursuant to which it will continue out of the Cayman Islands and into the State of Delaware so as to re-domicile as and become a Delaware corporation pursuant to the Cayman Companies Law and the applicable provisions of the DGCL, and subject to the receipt of the approval of the shareholders of the Purchaser to the Conversion and its terms, the Purchaser shall adopt Delaware Organizational Documents in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Purchaser and the Seller and consistent with the terms of this Agreement (the “Conversion Organizational Documents”), including providing that the name of the Purchaser shall be amended to be “Stryve Foods, Inc.” In connection with the Conversion, all of the issued and outstanding Purchaser Securities shall remain outstanding and become substantially identical securities of the Purchaser as a Delaware corporation, with the Purchaser Ordinary Shares becoming Purchaser Class A Common Stock.

1.2 Contribution At the Closing, and subject to and upon the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Parties will consummate the Contribution by which: (a) the Seller will transfer, convey, contribute, assign and deliver to the Holdings, and Holdings will acquire and accept from the Seller, all of the issued and outstanding membership interests and other equity interests in or of the Company, free and clear of all Liens (other than potential restrictions on resale under applicable securities Laws and those Liens set forth in the Company Organizational Documents) (the “Seller Contribution”); and (b) the Purchaser will transfer as a cash contribution to Holdings all of its cash and cash equivalents, including the proceeds of any PIPE Investment and the funds remaining in the Trust Account, after giving effect to the completion of the Redemption and the payment of the Purchaser’s unpaid Expenses and other Liabilities of the Purchaser outstanding as of the Closing (the “Purchaser Contribution”).

1.3 Consideration.

(a) Subject to and upon the terms and conditions of this Agreement, in exchange for the Seller Contribution, Holdings shall issue to the Seller at the Closing a number of newly issued Holdings Class B Units (the “Seller Consideration Units”) equal in value to (the “Seller Consideration”) (i) One Hundred and Thirty Million U.S. Dollars ($130,000,000), minus (ii) the amount, if any, by which the Target Net Working Capital Amount exceeds the Net Working Capital (but not less than zero), plus (iii) the amount, if any, by which the Net Working Capital exceeds the Target Net Working Capital Amount (but not less than zero), minus (iv) the amount of Closing Indebtedness, minus (v) the amount of any Transaction Expenses, with each Holdings Class B Unit valued for such purposes at a price of $10.00 per unit (the “Per Unit Price”). The number of Seller Consideration Units to be issued and delivered to the Seller at the Closing will be based on the Seller Consideration set forth in the final Estimated Closing Statement in accordance with Section 1.4 (after giving effect to any adjustments to the Estimated Closing Statement thereunder); provided, that the number of Seller Consideration Units otherwise deliverable to the Seller is subject to the withholding of the Escrow Units deposited in the Escrow Account in accordance with Section 1.6, and after the Closing is subject to adjustment in accordance with Section 1.5. Additionally, at the Closing the Purchaser shall issue to the Seller a number of shares of newly issued Purchaser Class V Common Stock equal to the number of Seller Consideration Units (subject to the withholding of the Escrow Shares deposited in the Escrow Account in accordance with Section 1.6 and after the Closing is subject to adjustment in accordance with Section 1.5).

(b) Subject to and upon the terms and conditions of this Agreement, in exchange for the Purchaser Contribution, Holdings shall issue to the Purchaser at the Closing a number of newly issued Holdings Class A Units so that after giving effect to such issuance the Purchaser will have a number of Holdings Class A Units equal to the number of issued and outstanding shares of Purchaser Class A Common Stock as of the Closing (after giving effect to the issuance of any shares in any PIPE Investment and the redemption or conversion of Public Shareholders in the Redemption).

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no fraction of a Holdings Unit will be issued by Holdings by virtue of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, and each Person who would otherwise be entitled to a fraction of a Holdings Unit (after aggregating all fractional Holdings Units of the same class that would otherwise be received by such Person) shall instead have the number of Holdings Units issued to such Person rounded up or down in the aggregate to the nearest whole Holdings Unit.

1.4 Closing Calculations. At least two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Seller shall deliver to the Purchaser a statement certified by a senior executive officer of Seller (the “Estimated Closing Statement”) setting forth a good faith calculation of the Seller’s estimate of the Closing Indebtedness, Net Working Capital and Transaction Expenses, in each case, as of the Reference Time, and the resulting Seller Consideration based on such estimates, in reasonable detail including for each component thereof, along with the amount owed to each creditor (other than any creditor holding debt that is converted into equity of the Seller prior to or as of the Closing) of any of the Target Companies. Promptly upon delivering the Estimated Closing Statement to the Purchaser, if requested by the Purchaser, the Seller will meet with the Purchaser to review and discuss the Estimated Closing Statement and the Seller will consider reasonably and in good faith the Purchaser’s comments to the Estimated Closing Statement and make any appropriate adjustments agreed to by Seller, acting reasonably and in good faith, to the Estimated Closing Statement prior to the Closing, which adjusted Estimated Closing Statement shall thereafter become the Estimated Closing Statement for all purposes of this Agreement. The Estimated Closing Statement and the determinations contained therein shall be prepared in accordance with the Accounting Principles and otherwise in accordance with this Agreement.

1.5 Seller Consideration Adjustment.

(a) Within ninety (90) days after the Closing Date, Purchaser’s Chief Financial Officer (including any acting or interim Chief Financial Officer, the “CFO”) shall deliver to the Purchaser Representative and the Seller Representative a statement (the “Closing Statement”) setting forth (i) a consolidated balance sheet of the Target Companies as of the Reference Time and (ii) a good faith calculation of the Closing Indebtedness, Net Working Capital and Transaction Expenses, in each case, as of the Reference Time, and the resulting Seller Consideration and Seller Consideration Units using the formula in Section 1.3. The Closing Statement shall be prepared, and the Closing Indebtedness, Net Working Capital, and Transaction Expenses and the resulting Seller Consideration and Seller Consideration Units shall be determined in accordance with the Accounting Principles and otherwise in accordance with this Agreement.

(b) After delivery of the Closing Statement, each of the Seller Representative and the Purchaser Representative, and their respective Representatives on their behalves, shall be permitted reasonable access to the books, records, working papers, files, facilities and senior personnel of the Purchaser, Holdings and the Target Companies relating to the preparation of the Closing Statement, such access provided in a manner reasonably calculated so as not to unreasonably disrupt the business of Purchaser, Holdings and the Target Companies. The Seller Representative and the Purchaser Representative, and their respective Representatives on their behalves, may make inquiries of the CFO and related Purchaser, Holdings and Target Company personnel and advisors regarding questions concerning or disagreements with the Closing Statement arising in the course of their review thereof, and Purchaser, Holdings and the Company shall provide reasonable cooperation in connection therewith. If either the Seller Representative or the Purchaser Representative (each, a “Reviewing Party”) has any objections to the Closing Statement, such Reviewing Party shall deliver to the CFO and the other Reviewing Party a statement setting forth its objections thereto (in reasonable detail) (an “Objection Statement”). If an Objection Statement is not delivered by a Reviewing Party within thirty (30) days following the date of delivery of the Closing Statement, then such Reviewing Party will have waived its right to contest the Closing Statement, all determinations and calculations set forth therein, and the resulting Seller Consideration set forth therein. If an Objection Statement is delivered within such thirty (30) day period, then the Seller Representative and the Purchaser Representative shall negotiate in good faith to resolve any such objections for a period of twenty (20) days thereafter. If the Seller Representative and the Purchaser Representative do not reach a final resolution within such twenty (20) day period, then upon the written request of either Reviewing Party (the date of receipt of such notice by the other Party, the “Independent Expert Notice Date”), the Reviewing Parties will refer the dispute to the Independent Expert for final resolution of the dispute in accordance with Section 1.5(c). For purposes hereof, the “Independent Expert” shall mean a mutually acceptable independent (i.e., no prior material business relationship with any party for the prior two (2) years) accounting firm appointed by the Purchaser Representative and the Seller Representative, which appointment will be made no later than ten (10) days after the Independent Expert Notice Date); provided, that if the Independent Expert does not accept its appointment or if the Purchaser Representative and the Seller Representative cannot agree on the Independent Expert, in either case within twenty (20) days after the Independent Expert Notice Date, either Reviewing Party may require, by written notice to the other Reviewing Party, that the Independent Expert be selected by the New York City Regional Office of the AAA in accordance with the AAA’s procedures. The parties agree that the Independent Expert will be deemed to be independent even though a Party or its Affiliates may, in the future, designate the Independent Expert to resolve disputes of the types described in this Section 1.5. The Parties acknowledge that any information provided pursuant to this Section 1.5 will be subject to the confidentiality obligations of Section 6.15.

(c) If a dispute with respect to the Closing Statement is submitted in accordance with this Section 1.5 to the Independent Expert for final resolution, the Parties will follow the procedures set forth in this Section 1.5(c). Each of the Seller Representative and the Purchaser Representative agrees to execute, if requested by the Independent Expert, a reasonable engagement letter with respect to the determination to be made by the Independent Expert. All fees and expenses of the Independent Expert will be borne by the Purchaser. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, all other costs and expenses incurred by the Seller Representative in connection with resolving any dispute hereunder before the Independent Expert will be borne by the Seller, and all other costs and expenses incurred by the Purchaser Representative in connection with resolving any dispute hereunder before the Independent Expert will be borne by the Purchaser. The Independent Expert will determine only those issues still in dispute as of the Independent Expert Notice Date and the Independent Expert’s determination will be based solely upon and consistent with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. The determination by the Independent Expert will be based solely on presentations with respect to such disputed items by the Purchaser Representative and the Seller Representative to the Independent Expert and not on the Independent Expert’s independent review; provided, that such presentations will be deemed to include any work papers, records, accounts or similar materials delivered to the Independent Expert by a Reviewing Party in connection with such presentations and any materials delivered to the Independent Expert in response to requests by the Independent Expert. Each of the Seller Representative and the Purchaser Representative will use their reasonable efforts to make their respective presentations as promptly as practicable following submission to the Independent Expert of the disputed items, and each such Reviewing Party will be entitled, as part of its presentation, to respond to the presentation of the other Reviewing Party and any questions and requests of the Independent Expert. In deciding any matter, the Independent Expert will be bound by the provisions of this Agreement, including this this Section 1.5. It is the intent of the parties hereto that the activities of the Independent Expert in connection herewith are not (and should not be considered to be or treated as) an arbitration proceeding or similar arbitral process and that no formal arbitration rules should be followed (including rules with respect to procedures and discovery). The Seller Representative and the Purchaser Representative will request that the Independent Expert’s determination be made within forty-five (45) days after its engagement, or as soon thereafter as possible, will be set forth in a written statement delivered to the Purchaser Representative and the Seller Representative and will be final, conclusive, non-appealable and binding for all purposes hereunder (other than for fraud or manifest error).

(d) For purposes hereof, the term “Adjustment Amount” shall mean (x) the Seller Consideration Units as finally determined in accordance with this Section 1.5, less (y) the Seller Consideration Units that were issued to the Seller at the Closing.

(i) If the Adjustment Amount is a positive number or zero, then within five (5) Business Days after such final determination of the Seller Consideration Units (A) Purchaser shall cause Holdings to issue to the Seller an additional number of Holdings Class B Units equal to the lesser of (x) Adjustment Amount and (y) the number of Escrow Units deposited in the Escrow Account at the Closing (and the Purchaser shall issue to the Seller an equal number of additional number of shares of Purchaser Class V Common Stock), and (B) the Seller Representative and the Purchaser Representative shall execute and deliver a joint written instruction directing the Escrow Agent to release the Escrow Property to Seller. Such additional Holdings Class B Units shall be considered additional Seller Consideration Units under this Agreement, and together with such additional shares of Purchaser Class V Common Stock shall be considered “Restricted Securities” under the Lock-Up Agreement and “Registrable Securities” under the Registration Rights Agreement.

(ii) If the Adjustment Amount is a negative number, then the Seller Representative and the Purchaser Representative shall, within five (5) Business Days after such final determination of the Seller Consideration Units, execute and deliver a joint written instruction directing the Escrow Agent to release from the Escrow Account (A) to Holdings, a number of Escrow Units equal to the absolute value of the Adjustment Amount (and, after distribution of all Escrow Units, other Escrow Property other than Escrow Shares, with each Class B Unit for purposes of the Adjustment Amount valued at the Per Unit Price), and to the Purchaser an equal number of Escrow Shares, and (B) to Seller, the remainder, if any, of the Escrow Property. Holdings will promptly cancel any Escrow Units or other Holdings Class B Units, and Purchaser will promptly cancel any Escrow Shares or other shares of Purchaser Class V Common Stock, released to such Person by the Escrow Agent promptly after its receipt thereof. No further adjustment, transfer, or payment of any type shall be required in the event the Adjustment Amount exceeds the Escrow Property.

1.6 Escrow. At or prior to the Closing, the Seller Representative, the Purchaser Representative and the Escrow Agent shall enter into the Escrow Agreement. At the Closing, Holdings shall issue to the Escrow Agent a number of Seller Consideration Units equal to one percent (1%) of the Seller Consideration Units otherwise issuable to the Seller at the Closing (together with any equity securities paid as dividends or distributions with respect to such Seller Consideration Units or into which they are exchanged or converted, the “Escrow Units”), and the Purchaser shall issue to the Escrow Agent an equal number of shares of Purchaser Class V Common Stock otherwise issuable to the Seller at the Closing (together with any equity securities paid as dividends or distributions with respect to such shares or into which they are exchanged or converted, the “Escrow Shares” and, together with the Escrow Units, the “Escrow Securities”), such Escrow Securities to be held, along with any other dividends, distributions or other income on the Escrow Securities (together with the Escrow Securities, the “Escrow Property”), in the Escrow Account and disbursed therefrom in accordance with the terms of Section 1.5 hereof and the Escrow Agreement. The Escrow Property shall serve as the sole source of payment for the obligations of the Seller under Section 1.5. Unless otherwise required by Law, all distributions made from the Escrow Account shall be treated by the Parties as an adjustment to the number of Share Consideration Units received by the Seller pursuant to Article I hereof.

Article II
CLOSING

2.1 Closing. Subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Article VII, the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Closing”) shall take place at the offices of Ellenoff Grossman & Schole, LLP (“EGS”), counsel to the Purchaser, 1345 Avenue of the Americas, New York, NY 10105, on a date and at a time to be agreed upon by Purchaser and the Company, which date shall be no later than the second (2^nd) Business Day after all the Closing conditions to this Agreement have been satisfied or waived, or at such other date, time or place (including remotely) as the Purchaser and the Company may agree (the date and time at which the Closing is actually held being the “Closing Date”).

The Proxy Statement shall include proxy materials for the purpose of soliciting proxies from Purchaser shareholders to vote, at an extraordinary general meeting of Purchaser shareholders to be called and held for such purpose (the “Purchaser Special Meeting”), in favor of resolutions approving (i) the adoption and approval of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby or referred to herein, including the Contribution and the Conversion (and, to the extent required, the issuance of any shares in connection with any PIPE Investment), by the holders of Purchaser Ordinary Shares in accordance with the Purchaser’s Organizational Documents, the Cayman Companies Law, the DCGL and the rules and regulations of the SEC and Nasdaq, (ii) the effecting of the Conversion, (iii) the change of name of the Purchaser and the adoption and approval of the Conversion Organizational Documents, (iv) adoption and approval of a new equity incentive plan in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Purchaser and the Seller (the “Incentive Plan”), and which will provide for awards for a number of shares of Purchaser Class A Common Stock equal to twelve and one-half percent (12.5%) of the aggregate number of shares of Purchaser Class A Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately after the Closing (giving effect to the Redemption), (v) the appointment of the members of the Post-Closing Purchaser Board in accordance with Section 6.17 hereof, (vi) such other matters as the Company and Purchaser shall hereafter mutually determine to be necessary or appropriate in order to effect the Contribution and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the approvals described in foregoing clauses (i) through (vi), collectively, the “Purchaser Shareholder Approval Matters”), and (vii) the adjournment of the Purchaser Special Meeting, if necessary or desirable in the reasonable determination of Purchaser. If on the date for which the Purchaser Special Meeting is scheduled, Purchaser has not received proxies representing a sufficient number of shares to obtain the Required Purchaser Shareholder Approval, whether or not a quorum is present, Purchaser shall make at least one postponement or adjournment of the Purchaser Special Meeting, and may make one or more additional successive postponements or adjournments of the Purchaser Special Meeting.

The Purchaser shall amend or supplement the Registration Statement and cause the Registration Statement, as so amended or supplemented, to be filed with the SEC and to be disseminated to Purchaser shareholders, in each case as and to the extent required by applicable Laws and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Purchaser’s Organizational Documents.

(c) The Purchaser, with the assistance of the other Parties, shall promptly respond to any SEC comments on the Registration Statement and shall otherwise use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Registration Statement to “clear” comments from the SEC and become effective.

The Target Companies shall use the net cash proceeds of any such Sales-Leaseback to pay-off and reduce the outstanding Indebtedness for borrowed money owed by the Target Companies to third parties (other than members of the Seller after the Reorganization).

Article IX

WAIVERS AND RELEASES

9.1 Waiver of Claims Against Trust. Reference is made to the IPO Prospectus. The Company and the Seller each hereby represents and warrants that it has read the IPO Prospectus and understands that Purchaser has established the Trust Account containing the proceeds of the IPO and the overallotment securities acquired by Purchaser’s underwriters and from certain private placements occurring simultaneously with the IPO (including interest accrued from time to time thereon) for the benefit of Purchaser’s public shareholders (including overallotment shares acquired by Purchaser’s underwriters) (the “Public Shareholders”) and that, except as otherwise described in the IPO Prospectus, Purchaser may disburse monies from the Trust Account only: (a) to the Public Shareholders in the event they elect to redeem their Purchaser Ordinary Shares in connection with the consummation of its initial business combination (as such term is used in the IPO Prospectus) (“Business Combination”) or in connection with an amendment to Purchaser’s Organizational Documents to extend Purchaser’s deadline to consummate a Business Combination, (b) to the Public Shareholders if the Purchaser fails to consummate a Business Combination within eighteen (18) months after the closing of the IPO, which has since been extended, upon the execution and delivery of this Agreement, to July 31, 2021, and subject to further extension by amendment to Purchaser’s Organizational Documents, (c) with respect to any interest earned on the amounts held in the Trust Account, amounts necessary to pay for any taxes and up to $100,000 in working capital obligations, and (d) to Purchaser after or concurrently with the consummation of a Business Combination. For and in consideration of Purchaser entering into this Agreement and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, each of the Company and the Seller hereby agrees on behalf of itself and its Affiliates that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, none of the Company or the Seller nor any of their respective Affiliates do now or shall at any time hereafter have any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies in the Trust Account or distributions therefrom, or make any claim against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom), regardless of whether such claim arises as a result of, in connection with or relating in any way to, this Agreement or any proposed or actual business relationship between Purchaser or any of its Representatives, on the one hand, and the Company, the Seller or any of their respective Representatives, on the other hand, or any other matter, and regardless of whether such claim arises based on contract, tort, equity or any other theory of legal liability (collectively, the “Released Claims”). Each of the Company and the Seller on behalf of itself and its Affiliates hereby irrevocably waives any Released Claims that any such Party or any of its Affiliates may have against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) now or in the future as a result of, or arising out of, any negotiations, contracts or agreements with Purchaser or its Representatives and will not seek recourse against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) for any reason whatsoever (including for an alleged breach of this Agreement or any other agreement with Purchaser or its Affiliates). The Company and the Seller each agrees and acknowledges that such irrevocable waiver is material to this Agreement and specifically relied upon by Purchaser and its Affiliates to induce Purchaser to enter in this Agreement, and each of the Company and the Seller further intends and understands such waiver to be valid, binding and enforceable against such Party and each of its Affiliates under applicable Law. To the extent that the Company or the Seller or any of their respective Affiliates commences any Action based upon, in connection with, relating to or arising out of any matter relating to Purchaser or its Representatives, which proceeding seeks, in whole or in part, monetary relief against Purchaser or its Representatives, each of the Company and the Seller hereby acknowledges and agrees that its and its Affiliates’ sole remedy shall be against funds held outside of the Trust Account and that such claim shall not permit such Party or any of its Affiliates (or any Person claiming on any of their behalves or in lieu of them) to have any claim against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) or any amounts contained therein. In the event that the Company or the Seller or any of their respective Affiliates commences Action based upon, in connection with, relating to or arising out of any matter relating to Purchaser or its Representatives which proceeding seeks, in whole or in part, relief against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) or the Public Shareholders, whether in the form of money damages or injunctive relief, Purchaser and its Representatives, as applicable, shall be entitled to recover from the Company, the Seller and their respective Affiliates, as applicable, the associated legal fees and costs in connection with any such Action, in the event Purchaser or its Representatives, as applicable, prevails in such Action. This Section 9.1 shall survive termination of this Agreement for any reason and continue indefinitely.

9.2 Release and Covenant Not to Sue. Effective as of the Closing, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, the Seller, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates that owns any share or other equity interest in or of the Seller (the “Releasing Persons”), hereby releases and discharges the Target Companies from and against any and all Actions, obligations, agreements, debts and Liabilities whatsoever, whether known or unknown, both at law and in equity, which such Releasing Person now has, has ever had or may hereafter have against the Target Companies arising on or prior to the Closing Date or on account of or arising out of any matter occurring on or prior to the Closing Date, including any rights to indemnification or reimbursement from a Target Company, whether pursuant to its Organizational Documents, Contract or otherwise, and whether or not relating to claims pending on, or asserted after, the Closing Date. From and after the Closing, each Releasing Person hereby irrevocably covenants to refrain from, directly or indirectly, asserting any Action, or commencing or causing to be commenced, any Action of any kind against the Target Companies or their respective Affiliates, based upon any matter purported to be released hereby. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the releases and restrictions set forth herein shall not apply to any claims a Releasing Person may have against any party pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement or any Ancillary Document or any of the other matters set forth on Schedule 9.2.
