Each of the Parties agrees that it has been represented by independent counsel of its choice during the negotiation and execution of this Agreement and each Party and its counsel cooperated in the drafting and preparation of this Agreement and the documents referred to herein and, therefore, waive the application of any law, regulation, holding or rule of construction providing that ambiguities in an agreement or other document will be construed against the Party drafting such agreement or document. The words “hereof,” “herein,” “hereinafter,” “hereunder,” and “hereto” and words of similar import refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular section or subsection of this Agreement and reference to a particular section of this Agreement will include all subsections thereof, unless, in each case, the context otherwise requires. The definitions of the terms herein shall apply equally to the singular and plural forms of the terms defined. Whenever the context shall require, any pronoun shall include the corresponding masculine, feminine and neuter forms. Unless otherwise indicated the words “include,” “includes” and “including” when used herein shall be deemed in each case to be followed by the words “without limitation.” References to Sections and Exhibits are to sections of, and exhibits to, this Agreement. The Exhibits form part of this Agreement. Any reference to “writing” or “written” means any method of reproducing words in a legible and non-transitory form. References to a “company” include any company, corporation or other body corporate wherever and however incorporated or established. The table of contents and headings are inserted for convenience only and do not affect the construction of this Agreement. Unless the context otherwise requires, words in the singular include the plural and vice versa and a reference to any gender includes all other genders. References to any statute or statutory provision include a reference to that statute or statutory provision as amended, consolidated or replaced from time to time (whether before or after the date of this Agreement) and include any subordinate legislation made under the relevant statute or statutory provision.

 

(e)            Third Party Rights. This Agreement is made for the benefit of the Parties and the Permitted Transferees (and their respective successors and permitted assigns) and is not intended to confer upon any other Person any rights or remedies.

 

(f)            Severance and Validity. If any provision of this Agreement is or becomes illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any respect under the law of any jurisdiction, it shall be deemed to be severed from this Agreement. The remaining provisions will remain in full force in that jurisdiction and all provisions will continue in full force in any other jurisdiction.

 

(g)            Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts and shall be effective when each Party has executed and delivered a counterpart. Each counterpart shall constitute an original of this Agreement, but all the counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument.

 

(h)            Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the Merger Agreement constitute the entire agreement and understanding of the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior understandings, agreements and representations by or among the Parties to the extent they relate in any way to the subject matter hereof.

(i)             Modifications and Amendments. This Agreement may not be amended, modified, supplemented or waived (i) except by an instrument in writing, signed by the Party against whom enforcement of such amendment, modification, supplement or waiver is sought and (ii) without the prior written consent of PubCo, the Sponsor and the Company Shareholder.

 

(j)             Assignment. Except for transfers permitted by Article IV, neither this Agreement nor any rights, interests or obligations that may accrue to the Parties may be transferred or assigned without the prior written consent of each of the other Parties. Any such assignment without such consent shall be null and void. This Agreement shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

 

(k)            No Waiver of Rights, Powers and Remedies. No failure or delay by a Party in exercising any right, power or remedy under this Agreement, and no course of dealing between the parties hereto, shall operate as a waiver of any such right, power or remedy of such Party. No single or partial exercise of any right, power or remedy under this Agreement by a Party, nor any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce any such right, power or remedy, shall preclude such Party from any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy hereunder. The election of any remedy by a Party shall not constitute a waiver of the right of such Party to pursue other available remedies. No notice to or demand on a Party not expressly required under this Agreement shall entitle the Party receiving such notice or demand to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of the Party giving such notice or demand to any other or further action in any circumstances without such notice or demand.

 

(l)            Remedies.

 

(i)             The Parties agree that irreparable damage would occur if this Agreement was not performed and that money damages or other legal remedies would not be an adequate remedy for any such damage. It is accordingly agreed that the Parties shall be entitled to equitable relief, including in the form of an injunction or injunctions, to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement, without proof of actual damages or the inadequacy of monetary damages as a remedy, in an appropriate court of competent jurisdiction as set forth in Section 9.01(o) this being in addition to any other remedy to which any Party is entitled at law or in equity, including money damages. The Parties further agree (i) to waive any requirement for the security or posting of any bond in connection with any such equitable remedy, (ii) not to assert that a remedy of specific enforcement pursuant to this Section 9.01(l) is unenforceable, invalid, contrary to applicable law or inequitable for any reason, and (iii) to waive any defenses in any action for specific performance, including the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.

 

(ii)            The Parties acknowledge and agree that this Section 9.01(l) is an integral part of the transactions contemplated hereby and without that right, the Parties would not have entered into this Agreement.

 

(iii)           In any dispute arising out of or related to this Agreement, or any other agreement, document, instrument or certificate contemplated hereby, or any transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, the applicable adjudicating body shall award to the prevailing Party, if any, the costs and attorneys’ fees reasonably incurred by the prevailing Party in connection with the dispute and the enforcement of its rights under this Agreement or any other agreement, document, instrument or certificate contemplated hereby and, if the adjudicating body determines a Party to be the prevailing Party under circumstances where the prevailing Party won on some but not all of the claims and counterclaims, the adjudicating body may award the prevailing Party an appropriate percentage of the costs and attorneys’ fees reasonably incurred by the prevailing Party in connection with the adjudication and the enforcement of its rights under this Agreement or any other agreement, document, instrument or certificate contemplated hereby or thereby.

(n)            No Partnership, Agency or Joint Venture.

2.1.1 Filing. Within thirty (30) calendar days after the Closing Date, the Company shall submit to or file with the Commission a Registration Statement to permit the public resale of all the Registrable Securities on a delayed or continuous basis as permitted by Rule 415 under the Securities Act (or any successor or similar provision adopted by the Commission then in effect) on the terms and conditions specified in this Section 2.1 and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Registration Statement to be declared effective as soon as practicable after the filing thereof, but in any event no later than sixty (60) calendar days after the Closing Date (the “Effectiveness Deadline”); provided, that the Effectiveness Deadline shall be extended to one hundred twenty (120) calendar days after the Closing Date if the Registration Statement is reviewed by, and comments thereto are provided from, the Commission prior to the original Effectiveness Deadline; provided, further, the Company shall have the Registration Statement declared effective within ten (10) Business Days after the date the Company is notified (orally or in writing, whichever is earlier) by the staff of the Commission that the Registration Statement will not be “reviewed” or will not be subject to review. If the Effectiveness Deadline falls on a Saturday, Sunday, or other day that the Commission is closed for business, the relevant deadlines shall be extended to the next Business Day on which the Commission is open for business; provided, however, that if the Commission is closed for operations due to a government shutdown, such deadlines shall be extended by the same number of Business Days that the Commission remains closed for. The Registration Statement filed with the Commission pursuant to this Section 2.1 shall be on Form F-1 or any similar long-form registration statement that may be available at such time (“Form F-1”) covering such Registrable Securities, and shall contain a Prospectus in such form as to permit the Holders to sell such Registrable Securities pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act (or any successor or similar provision adopted by the Commission then in effect) at any time beginning on the effective date for such Registration Statement. A Registration Statement filed pursuant to this Section 2.1 shall provide for the resale of the Registrable Securities included therein pursuant to any method or combination of methods legally available to, and requested by, any Holder named therein. As soon as practicable following the effective date of a Registration Statement filed pursuant to this Section 2.1, but in any event within three (3) Business Days of such date, the Company shall notify the Holders named therein of the effectiveness of such Registration Statement. When effective, a Registration Statement filed pursuant to this Section 2.1 (including any documents incorporated therein by reference, if any) will comply as to form in all material respects with all applicable requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading (in the case of any Prospectus contained in such Registration Statement, in the light of the circumstances under which such statement is made). The Company’s obligations under this Section 2.1.1, shall, for the avoidance of doubt, be subject to Section 3.4.

 

2.1.2 Obligation to Keep Effective. The Company shall maintain the Form F-1 filed pursuant to Section 2.1.1 in accordance with the terms thereof, and shall prepare and file with the Commission such amendments, including post-effective amendments, and supplements as may be necessary to keep the Form F-1 continuously effective, available for use to permit the Holders named therein to sell their Registrable Securities included therein, and in compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act until such time as all such Registrable Securities included therein have ceased to be Registrable Securities.

 

2.1.3 Subsequent Registration Statement. If the Form F-1 ceases to be effective under the Securities Act for any reason at any time while Registrable Securities are still outstanding, the Company shall, subject to Section 3.4, use its commercially reasonable efforts to, as promptly as is reasonably practicable, cause such Form F-1 to again become effective under the Securities Act (including using its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the prompt withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of such Form F-1), and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to, as promptly as is reasonably practicable, amend such Form F-1 in a manner reasonably expected to result in the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of such Form F-1 or file an additional Registration Statement (a “Subsequent Registration Statement”) registering the resale of all Registrable Securities (determined as of two Business Days prior to such filing), and pursuant to any method or combination of methods legally available to, and requested by, any Holder named therein. If a Subsequent Registration Statement is filed, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to (i) cause such Subsequent Registration Statement to become effective under the Securities Act as promptly as is reasonably practicable after the filing thereof (it being agreed that the Subsequent Registration Statement shall be an automatic shelf registration statement (as defined in Rule 405 promulgated under the Securities Act) if the Company is a well-known seasoned issuer (as defined in Rule 405 promulgated under the Securities Act) at the most recent applicable eligibility determination date) and (ii) keep such Subsequent Registration Statement continuously effective, available for use to permit the Holders named therein to sell their Registrable Securities included therein and in compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act until such time as all such Registrable Securities included therein have ceased to be Registrable Securities. Any such Subsequent Registration Statement shall be on Form F-3 or any similar short-form registration statement that may be available at such time (“Form F-3”) to the extent that the Company is eligible to use such form. Otherwise, such Subsequent Registration Statement shall be on another appropriate form. The Company’s obligation under this Section 2.1.3, shall, for the avoidance of doubt, be subject to Section 3.4.

 

 

 

2.1.4 Conversion to Form F-3. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to convert a Form F-1 into a Form F-3 as soon as practicable after the Company is eligible to use Form F-3. The Company’s obligations under this subsection 2.1.4, shall, for the avoidance of doubt, be subject to Section 3.4.

 

2.2 Demand Registration.

 

2.2.1 Request for Registration. Subject to the provisions of subsection 2.2.4 and Section 3.4, in the event that any Insider holds Registrable Securities that are not registered pursuant to Section 2.1, at any time and from time to time, (a) the Sponsor, (b) Sponsor Members and SPAC Anchor Investors holding at least 15% of the Registrable Securities (provided that the aggregate gross proceeds of the Registrable Securities proposed to be sold by such Demanding Holders in such Demand Registration, either individually or together with other Demanding Holders, is reasonably expected to exceed $10,000,000), or (c) the Company Shareholder (individually, a “Demanding Holder,” collectively, the “Demanding Holders”) may make a written demand for Registration of all or part of their Registrable Securities, which written demand shall describe the amount and type of securities to be included in such Registration and the intended method(s) of distribution thereof (such written demand a “Demand Registration”). The Company shall, within ten (10) days of the Company’s receipt of the Demand Registration, notify, in writing, all other Holders of Registrable Securities of such demand, and each Holder of Registrable Securities who thereafter wishes to include all or a portion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in a Registration pursuant to such Demand Registration (each such Holder that wishes to include all or a portion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in such Registration, a “Requesting Holder”) shall so notify the Company, in writing, within five (5) days after the receipt by such Requesting Holder of the Demand Registration notice from the Company. Upon receipt by the Company of any such written notification from a Requesting Holder(s) to the Company, such Requesting Holder(s) shall be entitled to have their Registrable Securities included in a Registration Statement pursuant to such Demand Registration and the Company shall effect, as soon thereafter as practicable, but in no event more than thirty (30) calendar days after the Company’s receipt of the Demand Registration, the Registration of all Registrable Securities requested by the Demanding Holders and Requesting Holders pursuant to such Demand Registration. Under no circumstances shall the Company be obligated to effect more than (i) an aggregate of three (3) Registrations pursuant to a Demand Registration under this subsection 2.2.1 in the aggregate on behalf of the Sponsor, Sponsor Members, and SPAC Anchor Investors and (ii) an aggregate of three (3) Registrations pursuant to a Demand Registration under this subsection 2.2.1 on behalf of the Company Shareholder, and the Company shall not be obligated to participate in more than an aggregate of four (4) Demand Registrations in any twelve-month period.

 

2.2.2 Effective Registration. Notwithstanding the provisions of subsection 2.2.1 above or any other part of this Agreement, a Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration shall not count as a Registration unless and until (i) the Registration Statement filed with the Commission with respect to a Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration has been declared effective by the Commission, in accordance with Section 3.1 of this Agreement and (ii) the Company has complied with all of its obligations under this Agreement with respect thereto; provided, however, that if, after such Registration Statement has been declared effective, an offering of Registrable Securities in a Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration is subsequently interfered with by any stop order or injunction of the Commission, federal or state court or any other governmental agency, the Registration Statement with respect to such Demand Registration shall be deemed not to have been declared effective, unless and until, (x) such stop order or injunction is removed, rescinded or otherwise terminated, and (y) within five (5) days of the removal or termination of such stop order a majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders initiating such Demand Registration thereafter affirmatively elect to continue with such Demand Registration and accordingly notify the Company in writing of such election; and providedfurther, that the Company shall not be obligated or required to file another Registration Statement until the Registration Statement that has been previously filed with respect to a Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration becomes effective or is subsequently terminated.

Each such Holder agrees to execute a customary lock-up agreement in favor of the Underwriters to such effect (in each case on substantially the same terms and conditions as all such Holders).

 

 

 

 

2.4 Rule 415; Removal. If at any time the Commission takes the position that the offering of some or all of the Registrable Securities in a Registration Statement on Form F-3 is not eligible to be made on a delayed or continuous basis under the provisions of Rule 415 under the Securities Act (provided, however, that the Company shall be obligated to use its commercially reasonable efforts to advocate with the Commission for the registration of all of the Registrable Securities in accordance with the Commission Guidance, including without limitation, Compliance and Disclosure Interpretation 612.09) or requires any Insider to be named as an “underwriter,” the Company shall promptly notify each Holder of Registrable Securities thereof (or in the case of the Commission requiring an Insider to be named as an “underwriter,” the Insider) and the Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to persuade the Commission that the offering contemplated by such Registration Statement is a valid secondary offering and not an offering “by or on behalf of the issuer” as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act. In the event that the Commission refuses to alter its position, the Company shall (a) remove from such Registration Statement such portion of the Registrable Securities (the “Removed Shares”) and/or (b) agree to such restrictions and limitations on the registration and resale of such portion of the Registrable Securities as the Commission may require to assure the Company’s compliance with the requirements of Rule 415 under the Securities Act; provided, however, that the Company shall not agree to name any Insider as an “underwriter” in such Registration Statement without the prior written consent of such Insider and, if the Commission requires such Insider to be named as an “underwriter” in such Registration Statement, notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, the Company shall not be under any obligation to include any Registrable Securities of such Insider in such Registration Statement. In the event of a share removal pursuant to this Section 2.4, the Company shall give the applicable Holders at least five (5) days prior written notice along with the calculations as to such Holder’s allotment. Any removal of shares of any Holders pursuant to this Section 2.4 shall first be applied to Holders other than the Insiders with securities registered for resale under the applicable Registration Statement and thereafter allocated between the Insiders on a pro rata basis based on the aggregate amount of Registrable Securities held by the Insiders. In the event of a share removal of the Holders pursuant to this Section 2.4, the Company shall promptly register the resale of any Removed Shares and in no event shall the filing of such Registration Statement on Form F-1 or subsequent Registration Statement on Form F-3 filed be counted as a Demand Registration hereunder. Until such time as the Company has registered all of the Removed Shares for resale pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act on an effective Registration Statement, the Company shall not be able to defer the filing of a Registration Statement pursuant to Section 3.4 hereof.

 

2.5 Block Trades; Other Coordinated Offerings. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article II, but subject to Section 3.4, at any time and from time to time when an effective shelf Registration Statement is on file with the Commission, if any Demanding Holders desire to effect a Block Trade or an Other Coordinated Offering, wherein each case the anticipated aggregate gross proceeds is reasonably expected to exceed $30,000,000, then notwithstanding any other time periods in this Article II, such Demanding Holders shall provide written notice to the Company at least five (5) Business Days prior to the date such Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering will commence. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to facilitate such Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering, provided that the Demanding Holders requesting such Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering shall use their reasonable best efforts to work with the Company and the Underwriter(s), brokers, sales agents, or placement agents prior to making such request in order to facilitate preparation of the Registration Statement, Prospectus and other offering documentation related to the Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering and any related due diligence and comfort procedures. In the event of a Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering, and after consultation with the Company, the Demanding Holders and the Requesting Holder(s) (if any) shall determine the Maximum Number of Securities, the Underwriter or Underwriters (which shall consist of one or more reputable nationally recognized investment banks) and share price of such offering. Prior to the filing of the applicable “red herring” prospectus or prospectus supplement used in connection with a Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering, a majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders initiating such Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering shall have the right to submit a notice of such Demanding Holders’ intent to withdraw from such Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering to the Company, the Underwriter(s) and any brokers, sales agents or placement agents (if any). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Company shall be responsible for the Registration Expenses incurred in connection with a Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering prior to its withdrawal under this Section 2.5. Each of (i) the Sponsor, Sponsor Members, and SPAC Anchor Investors (taken together) and (ii) the Company Shareholder may demand no more than an aggregate of two Block Trades and Other Coordinated Offerings pursuant to this Section 2.5 in any twelve (12) month period.

3.3 Requirements for Participation in Underwritten Offerings. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if any Holder does not provide the Company with the information requested by the Company, after written notice to such Holder the Company may exclude such Holder’s Registrable Securities from the applicable Registration Statement or Prospectus if the Company determines, based on the advice of counsel, that it is necessary or advisable to include such information in the applicable Registration Statement or Prospectus to comply with relevant disclosure requirements under the federal securities laws, rules and regulations and such Holder continues thereafter to withhold such information.

3.4 Suspension of Sales; Adverse Disclosure; Deferrals.

 

3.4.1 Upon receipt of written notice from the Company that a Registration Statement or Prospectus contains a Misstatement, each of the Holders shall forthwith discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities until it has received copies of a supplemented or amended Prospectus correcting the Misstatement (it being understood that the Company hereby covenants to prepare and file such supplement or amendment as soon as practicable after the time of such notice), or until it is advised in writing by the Company that the use of the Prospectus may be resumed. Subject to subsection 3.4.4, if the filing, initial effectiveness or continued use of a Registration Statement in respect of any Registration (including in connection with an Underwritten Offering) at any time (i) would require the Company to make an Adverse Disclosure, (ii) would require the inclusion in such Registration Statement of financial statements that are unavailable to the Company for reasons beyond the Company’s control, (iii) in the good faith judgment of the majority of the Board, would be seriously detrimental to the Company and the majority of the Board concludes, as a result, that it is essential to defer such filing, initial effectiveness or continued use at such time, or (iv) if the majority of the Board, in its good faith judgment, determines to delay the filing or initial effectiveness of, or suspend use of, a Registration Statement and such delay or suspension arises out of, or is a result of, or is related to or is in connection with Commission Guidance or related accounting, disclosure or other matters, then the Company shall have the right, upon giving prompt written notice of such action to the Holders (which notice shall not specify the nature of the event giving rise to such delay or suspension), delay the filing or initial effectiveness of, or suspend use of, such Registration Statement (including in connection with an Underwritten Offering) for the shortest period of time, but in no event more than forty-five (45) days, determined in good faith by the Company to be necessary for such purpose. In the event the Company exercises its rights under the preceding sentence, the Holders agree to suspend, immediately upon their receipt of the notice referred to above, their use of the Prospectus relating to any Registration in connection with any sale or offer to sell Registrable Securities until such Holders receive written notice from the Company that such sales or offers of Registrable Securities may be resumed, and in each case maintain the confidentiality of such notice and its contents.

 

 

 

 

3.4.2 Subject to subsection 3.4.4, (a) during the period starting with the date thirty (30) days prior to the Company’s good faith estimate of the date of the filing of, and ending on a date ninety (90) days after the effective date of, a Company-initiated Registration and provided that the Company continues to employ its commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the effectiveness of the applicable Registration Statement, or (b) if, pursuant to Section 2.2.3, any Holders have requested an Underwritten Offering, and the Company and Holders are unable to obtain the commitment of underwriters to firmly underwrite such Underwritten Offering, the Company may, upon giving written notice of such action to the Holders, delay any other registered offering pursuant to subsection 2.2.3 or Section 2.5.

 

3.4.3 The Company shall have the right to defer any Demand Registration for up to thirty (30) consecutive days and any Piggyback Registration for such period as may be applicable to deferment of the Registration Statement to which the Piggyback Registration relates, in each case if the Company furnishes to the Holders a certificate signed by the Chief Executive Officer or principal financial officer stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board it would be materially detrimental to the Company for such Registration Statement to be filed at such time.

 

3.4.4 The right to delay or suspend any filing, initial effectiveness or continued use of a Registration Statement pursuant to subsection 3.4.2 or a registered offering pursuant to Section 3.4.3 shall be exercised by the Company, in the aggregate, on not more than three (3) occasions for not more than sixty (60) consecutive calendar days on each occasion, or not more than one hundred twenty (120) total calendar days, each in any 12-month period.

 

3.5 Reporting Obligations. As long as any Holder shall own Registrable Securities, the Company, at all times while it shall be a reporting company under the Exchange Act, covenants to file timely (or obtain extensions in respect thereof and file within the applicable grace period) all reports required to be filed by the Company after the date hereof pursuant to Sections 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act and to promptly furnish the Holders with true and complete copies of all such filings (the delivery of which will be satisfied and which shall be deemed to have been furnished or delivered by the Company’s filing of such reports on EDGAR). The Company further covenants that it shall take such further action as any Holder may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such Holder to sell Ordinary Shares held by such Holder without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act (or any successor rule then in effect), including providing any legal opinion to the Company’s transfer agent in connection therewith. Upon the request of any Holder, the Company shall deliver to such Holder a written certification of a duly authorized officer as to whether it has complied with such requirements.

 

3.6 Restrictive Legend Removal. In connection with a registration pursuant to Sections 2.1, 2.2 or 2.3, upon the request of a Holder, the Company shall (i) authorize the Company’s transfer agent to remove any legend on share certificates of such Holder’s Registrable Securities restricting further transfer (or any similar restriction in book entry positions of such Holder), and cause the Company’s counsel to issue an opinion to the Company’s transfer agent in connection therewith, if such restrictions are no longer required by the Securities Act or any applicable state securities laws or any agreement with the Company to which such Holder is a party, including if such shares subject to such a restriction have been sold pursuant to a Registration Statement, (ii) request the Company’s transfer agent to issue in lieu thereof securities without such restrictions to the Holder upon, as applicable, surrender of any certificates or to update the applicable book entry position of such Holder so that it no longer is subject to such a restriction, and (iii) use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with such Holder to have such Holder’s Registrable Securities transferred into a book entry position at The Depository Trust Company, in each case, subject to delivery of customer documentation, including any documentation required by such restrictive legend or book entry notation.

 

 

 

 

ARTICLE IV
INDEMNIFICATION AND CONTRIBUTION

 

4.1 Indemnification.

 

4.1.1 The Company agrees to indemnify, to the extent permitted by law, each Holder of Registrable Securities, its officers and directors and each person who controls such Holder (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable and documented outside attorneys’ fees) caused by any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in any Registration Statement, Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading (in light of the circumstances in which they were made), except insofar as the same are caused by or contained in any information furnished in writing to the Company by such Holder expressly for use therein.

 

4.1.2 In connection with any Registration Statement in which a Holder of Registrable Securities is participating, such Holder shall furnish (or cause to be furnished) to the Company in writing such information and affidavits as the Company reasonably requests for use in connection with any such Registration Statement or Prospectus and, to the extent permitted by law, shall indemnify the Company, its directors and officers and agents and each person or entity who controls the Company (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable and documented outside attorneys’ fees) resulting from any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained, or incorporated by reference in accordance with the requirements of Form F-1 or Form F-3, in any Registration Statement, Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading (in light of the circumstances in which they were made), but only to the extent that such untrue statement is contained in (or not contained in, in the case of an omission) any information or affidavit so furnished in writing by or on behalf of such Holder expressly for use therein; providedhowever, that the obligation to indemnify shall be several, not joint and several, among such Holders of Registrable Securities, and the liability of each such Holder of Registrable Securities shall be in proportion to and limited to the net proceeds received by such Holder from the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement. The Holders of Registrable Securities shall indemnify the Underwriter(s), its or their officers, directors and each person who controls such Underwriter(s) (within the meaning of the Securities Act) to the same extent as provided in the foregoing with respect to indemnification of the Company.

 

4.1.3 Any person entitled to indemnification herein shall (i) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification (provided, that the failure to give prompt notice shall not impair any person’s right to indemnification hereunder to the extent such failure has not materially prejudiced the indemnifying party) and (ii) unless in such indemnified party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist with respect to such claim, permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. If such defense is assumed, the indemnifying party shall not be subject to any liability for any settlement made by the indemnified party without its consent (but such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed); provided, that (x) if the indemnifying party fails to take reasonable steps to defend diligently the action or proceeding within twenty (20) days after receiving notice from the indemnified party, (y) if such indemnified party who is a defendant in any action or proceeding that is also brought against the indemnifying party reasonably shall have concluded that there may be one or more legal defenses available to such indemnified party that are not available to the indemnifying party, or (x) if representation of both parties by the same counsel is otherwise inappropriate under applicable standards of professional conduct, then the indemnified party shall have the right to assume or continue its own defense and the indemnifying party shall be liable for any expenses therefor. An indemnifying party who is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim shall not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel (plus local counsel) for all parties indemnified by such indemnifying party with respect to such claim, unless in the reasonable judgment of any indemnified party a conflict of interest may exist between such indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with respect to such claim. No indemnifying party shall, without the consent of the indemnified party, consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which cannot be settled in all respects by the payment of money (and such money is so paid by the indemnifying party pursuant to the terms of such settlement) or which settlement includes a statement or admission of fault and culpability on the part of such indemnified party or which settlement does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation.

 

 

 

 

4.1.4 The indemnification provided for under this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the indemnified party or any officer, director or controlling person of such indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of securities. The Company and each Holder of Registrable Securities participating in an offering also agree to make such provisions as are reasonably requested by any indemnified party for contribution to such party in the event the Company’s or such Holder’s indemnification is unavailable for any reason.

 

4.1.5 If the indemnification provided under Section 4.1 hereof from the indemnifying party is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and documented out-of-pocket expenses referred to herein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying the indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities and documented out-of-pocket expenses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact, was made by (or not made by, in the case of an omission), or relates to information supplied by (or not supplied by, in the case of an omission), such indemnifying party or indemnified party, and the indemnifying party’s and indemnified party’s relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action; providedhowever, that the liability of any Holder under this subsection 4.1.5 shall be limited to the amount of the net proceeds received by such Holder in such offering giving rise to such liability. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the losses or other liabilities referred to above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in subsections 4.1.14.1.2 and 4.1.3 above, any legal or other fees, charges or documented out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any investigation or proceeding. The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this subsection 4.1.5 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation, which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in this subsection 4.1.5. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution pursuant to this subsection 4.1.5 from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

5.2 Assignment; No Third Party Beneficiaries.

 

5.2.1 This Agreement and the rights, duties and obligations of the Company hereunder may not be assigned or delegated by the Company in whole or in part.

 

5.2.2 Following the expiration of the Lock-up Period or the Private Placement Lock-up Period, as applicable, the rights granted to a Holder by the Company hereunder may be transferred or assigned (but only with all related obligations) by a Holder only to a Permitted Transferee of such Holder; provided, that (x) such transfer or assignment of Registrable Securities is effected in accordance with applicable securities laws (subject to reasonable verification by the Company), (y) the Company is, within a reasonable time after such transfer, furnished with written notice of the name and address of such transferee and the Registrable Securities with respect to which such rights are being transferred and (z) such transferee agrees in a written instrument delivered to the Company to be bound by and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, prior to the expiration of the Lock-up Period, the rights granted to the Company Shareholder by the Company hereunder may be transferred or assigned (but only with all related obligations) by the Company Shareholder in connection with any Transfer of Registrable Securities made in accordance with Section 4.01(c) of the Investors Agreement, so long as the conditions set forth in the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence are satisfied.

 

5.2.3 This Agreement and the provisions hereof shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of each of the parties and its successors and the permitted assigns of the Holders, which shall include Permitted Transferees.

 

5.2.4 This Agreement shall not confer any rights or benefits on any persons that are not parties hereto, other than as expressly set forth in this Agreement.

 

5.2.5 No assignment by any party hereto of such party’s rights, duties and obligations hereunder shall be binding upon or obligate the Company unless and until the Company shall have received (i) written notice of such assignment as provided in Section 5.1 hereof and (ii) the written agreement of the assignee, in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to be bound by the terms and provisions of this Agreement (which may be accomplished by an addendum or certificate of joinder to this Agreement in substantially the form set forth in Exhibit A to this Agreement). Any transfer or assignment made other than as provided in this Section 5.2 shall be null and void.

 

5.3 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts (including facsimile or PDF counterparts), each of which shall be deemed an original, and all of which together shall constitute the same instrument, but only one of which need be produced. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” “delivery,” and words of like import in or relating to this Agreement or any document to be signed in connection with this Agreement shall be deemed to include electronic signatures, deliveries, or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity, or enforceability as a manually executed signature, physical delivery thereof, or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, and the parties hereto consent to conduct the transactions contemplated hereunder by electronic means.

 

5.4 Governing Law; Venue; Waiver of Jury Trial. NOTWITHSTANDING THE PLACE WHERE THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE EXECUTED BY ANY OF THE PARTIES HERETO, THE PARTIES EXPRESSLY AGREE THAT (I) THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED UNDER THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK AND (II) THE VENUE FOR ANY ACTION TAKEN WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE EXCLUSIVELY IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, NEW YORK COUNTY, AND ANY STATE APPELLATE COURT THEREFROM WITHIN THE STATE OF NEW YORK, NEW YORK COUNTY, OR IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK. EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

 

5.5 Specific Performance. Each party hereto recognizes and affirms that in the event any of the provisions of this Agreement are not performed in accordance with their specific terms or otherwise are breached, money damages would be inadequate (and therefore the non-breaching party would have no adequate remedy at law) and the non-breaching party would be irreparably damaged. Accordingly, each party hereto agrees that each other party hereof shall be entitled to specific performance, an injunction or other equitable relief (without posting of bond or other security or needing to prove irreparable harm) to prevent breaches of the provisions of this Agreement and to enforce specifically this Agreement and the terms and provisions hereof in any proceeding, in addition to any other remedy to which such person may be entitled.

 

 

 

 

5.6 Severability. It is the desire and intent of the parties that the provisions of this Agreement be enforced to the fullest extent permissible under the laws and public policies applied in each jurisdiction in which enforcement is sought. Accordingly, if any particular provision of this Agreement shall be adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, prohibited or unenforceable for any reason, such provision, as to such jurisdiction, shall be ineffective, without invalidating the remaining provisions of this Agreement or affecting the validity or enforceability of this Agreement or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if such provision could be more narrowly drawn so as not to be invalid, prohibited or unenforceable in such jurisdiction, it shall, as to such jurisdiction, be so narrowly drawn, without invalidating the remaining provisions of this Agreement or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

 

5.7 Interpretation. The headings and captions used in this Agreement have been inserted for convenience of reference only and do not modify, define or limit any of the terms or provisions hereof.

 

5.8 Entire Agreement. This Agreement contains the entire agreement and understanding between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, whether written or oral, relating to such subject matter in any way.

 

5.9 Amendments and Modifications. Upon the written consent of the Company and the Holders of at least a majority in interest of the total Registrable Securities at the time in question, compliance with any of the provisions, covenants and conditions set forth in this Agreement may be waived, or any of such provisions, covenants or conditions may be amended or modified; providedhowever, that notwithstanding the foregoing, any amendment hereto or waiver hereof that adversely affects one Holder, solely in its capacity as a holder of the shares of capital stock of the Company, in a manner that is materially different from the other Holders (in such capacity) shall require the consent of the Holder so affected. No course of dealing between any Holder or the Company and any other party hereto or any failure or delay on the part of a Holder or the Company in exercising any rights or remedies under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver of any rights or remedies of any Holder or the Company. No single or partial exercise of any rights or remedies under this Agreement by a party shall operate as a waiver or preclude the exercise of any other rights or remedies hereunder or thereunder by such party.

 

5.10 Other Registration Rights. Other than (i) the Holders who have registration rights with respect to Ordinary Shares pursuant to their respective Subscription Agreements and (ii) as provided in the Warrant Agreement, dated as of September 29, 2021, between the Company, SPAC, and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as modified by the Warrant Assignment, Assumption and Amendment Agreement, dated as of even date herewith, by and among SPAC, the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, the Company represents and warrants that no person, other than a Holder of Registrable Securities, has any right to require the Company to register any securities of the Company for sale or to include such securities of the Company in any Registration Statement filed by the Company for the sale of securities for its own account or for the account of any other person. Further, the Company represents and warrants that this Agreement supersedes any other registration rights agreement or agreement with similar terms and conditions and in the event of a conflict between any such agreement or agreements and this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall prevail.

 

5.11 Term. This Agreement shall terminate upon the earliest of (i) the tenth anniversary of the date of this Agreement or (ii) the date as of which all of the Registrable Securities have been sold pursuant to a Registration Statement (but in no event prior to the applicable period referred to in Section 4(a)(3) of the Securities Act and Rule 174 thereunder (or any successor rule promulgated thereafter by the Commission)); provided, that with respect to any Holder, this Agreement shall terminate on the date such Holder no longer holds any Registrable Securities. The provisions of Section 3.5 and Article IV shall survive any termination.

 

5.12 Further Assurances. In connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, upon written request by the Company, each Holder shall execute and deliver any additional documents and instruments and perform any additional acts that may be reasonably necessary to effectuate and perform the provisions of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.

Annex IV

 

WARRANT ASSIGNMENT, ASSUMPTION AND AMENDMENT AGREEMENT1

 

THIS WARRANT ASSIGNMENT, ASSUMPTION AND AMENDMENT AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is entered into and effective as of [●], 2022, by and among Artemis Strategic Investment Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“SPAC”), Novibet PLC, a Jersey public limited company (“PubCo”), and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, a New York limited purpose trust company (“Continental”), as warrant agent. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings given to such terms in the Warrant Agreement (as defined below).

 

WHEREAS, SPAC completed its initial public offering of units on October 4, 2021 (“Offering”), pursuant to which it issued an aggregate of 20,125,000 units, each unit consisting of one share of Class A common stock of SPAC, par value $0.0001 per share (“SPAC Class A Shares”) and one-half of one redeemable warrant (“Public Warrants”), each whole Public Warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one SPAC Class A Share at an initial exercise price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment;

WHEREAS, in order to finance SPAC’s transaction costs in connection with an intended initial business combination, Artemis Sponsor, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and sponsor of SPAC (the “Sponsor”) or affiliates of the Sponsor or SPAC’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan to SPAC funds as SPAC may require, of which up to $1,500,000 of such loans may be convertible into up to an additional 1,500,000 warrants at a price of $1.00 per warrant (the “Working Capital Warrants” and, together with the Private Placement Warrants and the Public Warrants, the “Warrants”);2

WHEREAS, at the closing of the Merger (the “Closing”), each outstanding SPAC Class A Share (other than any Excluded SPAC Shares, as defined in the Merger Agreement) will be converted into and exchanged for the right to receive one ordinary share of PubCo, par value $0.0001 per share (the “PubCo Shares”);

 

WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 2.6(b) of the Merger Agreement and Section 4.5 of the Warrant Agreement, upon the Closing, each Warrant issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Closing will be assumed by PubCo and will represent a warrant to purchase PubCo Shares (collectively, the “PubCo Warrants”) in accordance with the terms of the Warrant Agreement (as assumed and amended by this Agreement);

WHEREAS, Section 9.8 of the Warrant Agreement provides that SPAC and the Warrant Agent may amend the Warrant Agreement without the consent of any Registered Holder (as such term is defined in the Warrant Agreement) for the purpose of curing any ambiguity, or curing, correcting or supplementing any defective provision contained therein or adding or changing any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under the Warrant Agreement as SPAC and the Warrant Agent may deem necessary or desirable and that SPAC and the Warrant Agent deem shall not adversely affect the interest of the Registered Holders (as such term is defined in the Warrant Agreement) of the Warrants; and

3.            Replacement Instruments.

4.            Amendments to Warrant Agreement. To the extent required by this Agreement, the Warrant Agreement is hereby amended pursuant to Section 9.8 thereof to reflect the subject matter contained in this Agreement, effective as of the Closing, including as set forth below:

3.4            Governing Law. This Joinder Agreement and any action, suit, dispute, controversy or claim arising out of this Joinder Agreement, or the validity, interpretation, breach or termination of this Joinder Agreement, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware without the application of principles of conflicts of law that would result in the application of the laws of another jurisdiction.

 

3.5            Consent to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial.

 

 (a)            Each of the Parties irrevocably consents to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the Chancery Court of the State of Delaware, or if such court declines jurisdiction, then to any federal court located in Wilmington, Delaware and, in either case, any appellate court therefrom in connection with any matter based upon or arising out of this Joinder Agreement and the consummation of the Transactions, agrees that process may be served upon them in any manner authorized by the laws of the State of Delaware for such Person and waives and covenants not to assert or plead any objection which they might otherwise have to such manner of service of process.

Each Party and any Person asserting rights as a third-party beneficiary hereby agrees not to commence or prosecute any such action, claim, cause of action or suit other than before one of the above-named courts, nor to make any motion or take any other action seeking or intending to cause the transfer or removal of any such action, claim, cause of action or suit to any court other than one of the above-named courts, whether on the grounds of inconvenient forum or otherwise. Each Party hereby consents to service of process in any such proceeding in any manner permitted by Delaware law, and further consents to service of process by nationally recognized overnight courier service guaranteeing overnight delivery, or by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, at its address specified pursuant to Section 3.3. Notwithstanding the foregoing in this Section 3.5, any Party may commence any action, claim, cause of action or suit in a court other than the above-named courts solely for the purpose of enforcing an order or judgment issued by one of the above-named courts.

(b)            TO THE EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW WHICH CANNOT BE WAIVED, EACH OF THE PARTIES AND ANY PERSON ASSERTING RIGHTS AS A THIRD-PARTY BENEFICIARY MAY DO SO ONLY IF HE, SHE OR IT IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY ON ANY CLAIMS OR COUNTERCLAIMS ASSERTED IN ANY LEGAL DISPUTE RELATING TO THIS JOINDER AGREEMENT AND THE CONSUMMATION OF THE TRANSACTIONS, AND FOR ANY COUNTERCLAIM RELATING THERETO, IN EACH CASE WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING. IF THE SUBJECT MATTER OF ANY SUCH LEGAL DISPUTE IS ONE IN WHICH THE WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL IS PROHIBITED, NO PARTY NOR ANY PERSON ASSERTING RIGHTS AS A THIRD-PARTY BENEFICIARY SHALL ASSERT IN SUCH LEGAL DISPUTE A NONCOMPULSORY COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS JOINDER AGREEMENT AND THE CONSUMMATION OF THE TRANSACTIONS. FURTHERMORE, NO PARTY NOR ANY PERSON ASSERTING RIGHTS AS A THIRD-PARTY BENEFICIARY SHALL SEEK TO CONSOLIDATE ANY SUCH LEGAL DISPUTE WITH A SEPARATE ACTION OR OTHER LEGAL PROCEEDING IN WHICH A JURY TRIAL CANNOT BE WAIVED.

 

3.6            No Third-Party Beneficiaries. Except as specifically noted under this Joinder Agreement, this Joinder Agreement shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of each party hereto and his, her or its successors and permitted assigns, and nothing in this Joinder Agreement is intended to or shall confer upon any other Person any legal or equitable rights, benefits or remedies of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Joinder Agreement.

 

3.7            Counterparts; Electronic Signature. This Joinder Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original but all of which shall constitute one and the same agreement.

3.8            Amendment and Modification. This Joinder Agreement may not be amended, modified or supplemented in any manner, whether by course of conduct or otherwise, except by an instrument in writing specifically designated as an amendment hereto signed by each of the parties hereto.

 

3.9            Waivers. No failure or delay of a party in exercising any right or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such right or power, or any course of conduct, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the parties hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies which they would otherwise have hereunder. Any agreement on the part of any party to any such waiver shall be valid only if set forth in a written instrument executed and delivered by such party; and any such waiver shall not be applicable or have any effect except in the specific instance in which it is given.

 

3.10          Expenses. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary under the Merger Agreement, each party to this Joinder Agreement shall bear its respective legal, accountants, and financial advisory fees and other expenses incurred with respect to this Joinder Agreement, the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby.
