Promptly following the earlier of (i) the date on which the entire Exchange Pool has been disbursed and (ii) the date which is 12 months after the Effective Time, Newco shall instruct the Exchange Agent to deliver to Newco any remaining portion of the Exchange Pool, Letters of Transmittal and other documents in its possession relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, and the Exchange Agent’s duties shall terminate. Thereafter, each Holder may look only to Newco (subject to applicable abandoned property, escheat or other similar Applicable Laws), as general creditors thereof, for satisfaction of such Holder’s claim for the Per Share Merger Consideration that such Holder may have the right to receive pursuant to this Article 4 without any interest thereon.

Section 4.10. No Liability; Withholding.

(a) None of DSAC, Newco, the Surviving Corporation or the Exchange Agent shall be liable to any Person for any portion of the Per Share Merger Consideration delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar law. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, any portion of the Per Share Merger Consideration that remains undistributed to the Holders as of immediately prior to the date on which the Per Share Merger Consideration would otherwise escheat to or become the property of any Governmental Authority shall, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, become the property of the Surviving Corporation, free and clear of all claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto.

(b) Each of DSAC, Newco, the Surviving Corporation and the Exchange Agent (without duplication) shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable to any Person pursuant to this Agreement such Taxes as are required to be deducted and withheld with respect to the making of such payment under any Applicable Law; provided, however, that (a) except in respect of any (i) compensatory payment, (ii) withholding required as a result of a failure to provide the FIRPTA Documentation or the Tax forms or documentation required in the Letter of Transmittal or (iii) any withholding on imputed interest relating to the Earnout Shares or the payment of the Per Share Earnout Consideration, the withholding party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to (a) give the Company at least 5 business days’ prior notice of its intention to make such deduction or withholding, and (b) cooperate with the Company to obtain reduction of or relief from such deduction or withholding to the extent permitted by Applicable Law. Any amounts so deducted and withheld shall be paid over to the appropriate Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law and, to the extent so paid over, shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction or withholding was made.

Section 4.11. Earnout.

(a) Following the Closing, as additional consideration for the Company Shares acquired in connection with the Merger, within five (5) Business Days after the occurrence of a Triggering Event, Newco shall issue or cause to be issued to each applicable Eligible Company Equityholder pursuant to Section 4.11(f), with respect to each outstanding Company Share and Vested Company Option, as applicable, owned by such Eligible Company Equityholder immediately prior to the Effective Time, the applicable Per Share Earnout Consideration in connection with such Triggering Event (which shall be equitably adjusted for stock splits, reverse stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations, reclassifications, combination, exchange of shares or other like change or transaction with respect to shares of Newco Class A Common Stock occurring after the Closing and upon or prior to the applicable Triggering Event), upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, the Eligible Company Equityholders (excluding Eligible Company Equityholders in their capacity as holders of Unvested Company Options or Unvested Company RSUs solely to the extent they are eligible to receive Earnout RSU Shares pursuant to Section 4.11(e)) with respect to each Triggering Event shall be entitled to receive Earnout Shares upon the occurrence of such Triggering Event; provided, however, that each Triggering Event shall only occur once, if at all. Holders of Vested Company Options that are unexercised, issued and outstanding immediately before the Effective Time, holders of Unvested Company Options that hold related Converted Options that are vested as of such Triggering Event and holders of Unvested Company RSUs that hold related Converted RSUs that are vested as of such Triggering Event shall in each case receive the applicable Per Share Earnout Consideration in accordance with this paragraph and Section 4.11(f) and shall not receive Earnout RSUs pursuant to Section 4.11(e).

(b) At all times during the Earnout Period, Newco shall keep available for issuance a sufficient number of shares of unissued shares of Newco Class A Common Stock to permit Newco to satisfy in full its issuance obligations set forth in this Section 4.11 and shall take all actions reasonably required (including by convening any shareholder meeting and soliciting any required consents or approvals from shareholders) to increase the authorized number of shares of Newco Class A Common Stock if at any time there shall be insufficient unissued shares of Newco Class A Common Stock to permit such reservation. In no event will any right to receive Earnout Shares or Earnout RSU Shares be represented by any negotiable certificates of any kind, and in no event will any holder of a contingent right to receive Earnout Shares or Earnout RSU Shares take any steps that would render such rights readily marketable.

(c) Newco shall take such actions as are reasonably requested by the Eligible Company Equityholders to evidence the issuances pursuant to this Section 4.11, including through the provision of an updated register of members showing such issuances (as certified by a director or officer of Newco responsible for maintaining such register of members or the applicable registrar or transfer agent of Newco).

(d) During the Earnout Period, Newco shall use reasonable best efforts for Newco to remain listed as a public company on, and for the shares of Newco Class A Common Stock (including, when issued, the Earnout Shares) to be tradable over the national securities exchange (as defined under Section 6 of the Exchange Act) on which the shares of Newco Class A Common Stock are then listed.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in lieu of receiving Earnout Shares, holders of Unvested Company Options that are unexercised, issued and outstanding and holders of Unvested Company RSUs outstanding, in each case as of immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be issued Earnout RSUs upon the occurrence of a Trigging Event in accordance with this Section 4.11(e) to the extent the Converted Option related to such Unvested Company Option or the Converted RSU related to such Unvested Company RSU is outstanding and unvested as of the occurrence of a Triggering Event. If the Converted Option or Converted RSU related to such Unvested Company Option or Unvested Company RSU, as applicable, was forfeited after the Effective Time but prior to such Triggering Event, no Earnout RSUs will be issued for such Unvested Company Option or Unvested Company RSU, as applicable. The number of Earnout RSUs issued with respect to each Unvested Company Option shall be equal to (i) Per Share Earnout Consideration multiplied by (ii) the aggregate number of Company Shares underlying the applicable Unvested Company Option (assuming payment in cash of the exercise price of such Unvested Company Option) multiplied by (iii) the percentage of the shares of Newco Class A Common Stock subject to the related Converted Option that are unvested as of the Triggering Event. The number of Earnout RSUs issued with respect to each Unvested Company RSU shall be equal to the (i) Per Share Earnout Consideration multiplied by (ii) the aggregate number of Company Shares underlying the applicable Unvested Company RSU multiplied by (iii) the percentage of the shares of Newco Class A Common Stock subject to the related Converted RSU that are unvested as of the Triggering Event. Each Earnout RSU shall be subject to forfeiture if the underlying vesting conditions of the applicable Converted Option associated with the Unvested Company Option or Converted RSU associated with the Unvested Company RSU are not attained, and such forfeiture restrictions shall lapse with respect to a pro rata portion of the Earnout RSUs held by each holder of Earnout RSUs upon the satisfaction of such underlying vesting conditions of the applicable Converted Option associated with the Unvested Company Option or Converted RSU associated with the Unvested Company RSU and the relevant Earnout RSU Shares shall be issued to such holder. Earnout RSUs that have been forfeited shall be reallocated pro rata to the other holders of Converted Options and Converted RSUs then outstanding with holders of vested Converted Options and Converted RSUs receiving Earnout RSU Shares and holders of unvested Converted Options and Converted RSUs receiving Earnout RSUs that vest pro-rata in accordance with the remaining vesting schedule of the underlying unvested Converted Option or Converted RSU.. Each Earnout RSU shall be subject to adjustment in accordance with Section 4.11(a) as if such Earnout RSU were an Earnout Share, and shall not be entitled to dividends paid with respect to the shares of Newco Class A Common Stock during the forfeiture period.

(f) In any issuance of shares of Newco Class A Common Stock to Eligible Company Equityholders pursuant to Section 4.11(a) or 4.11(e), each Eligible Company Equityholder shall receive a number of Earnout Shares or Earnout RSU Shares, as applicable, equal to the applicable Per Share Earnout Consideration multiplied by the sum of the number of Company Shares Outstanding and the number of shares of Company Common Stock issued or exercisable upon the exercise of all Company Options and settlement of Unvested Company RSUs, as applicable, in each case held by such Eligible Company Equityholder immediately before the Effective Time, subject to further adjustment and reallocation, to the extent applicable, as a result of forfeiture of any Earnout RSUs as provided in Section 4.11(e).

(g) Any Earnout Shares received by an Eligible Company Equityholder pursuant to Section 4.11(a) shall be treated as additional shares of Newco Class A Common Stock received in the Merger for all applicable U.S. federal, state and local Tax purposes, except as otherwise required by Applicable Law pursuant to a “final determination” within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code (or any similar provision of applicable U.S. state or local Applicable Law).

(h) The Parties intend that none of the rights to receive the Earnout Shares and any interest therein shall be deemed to be a “security” for purposes of any securities law of any jurisdiction. The right to receive the Earnout Shares are deemed contractual rights in connection with the Merger and the parties do not view the right to receive the Earnout Shares as an investment by the holders thereof. The right to receive the Earnout Shares will not be represented by any physical certificate or similar instrument. The right to receive the Earnout Shares does not represent an equity or ownership interest in any entity. No interest in the right to receive the Earnout Shares may be sold, transferred assigned, pledged, hypothecated, encumbered or otherwise disposed of, except by operation of law, and any attempt to do so shall be null and void. For the avoidance of doubt, (i) once issued, the Earnout Shares shall be considered a “security” for purposes of any securities law of any jurisdiction and the restrictions set forth in the foregoing sentence shall not apply to such issued Earnout Shares, and (ii) no Earnout Shares shall be included in the calculation of the aggregate number of shares of Newco Common Stock outstanding at or immediately after the Closing for purposes of this Agreement.

All DSAC Material Contracts have been made available to the Company.

Section 6.15. Employees and Employee Benefits Plans. Neither of the DSAC Parties (a) have any employees or (b) maintain, sponsor, contribute to or otherwise have any liability under any employee benefit plans.

(b) Each Party agrees that it will not oppose the granting of specific performance and other equitable relief on the basis that the other Parties have an adequate remedy at law or that an award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at law or equity.
