3. Prior to the following item 4, Parents sale of additional shares of Parent Class A Common Stock and delivery of the resulting net cash proceeds thereof to VRM; provided that if new shares of Parent Class A Common Stock are issued by Parent for such purpose which dilute VRMs existing holdings of Parent Class A Common Stock as of the date of this Amendment (as adjusted for any subsequent sales thereof), the MRCS Principals will deliver to VRM an amount of Parent Class A Common stock held by the MRCS Principals to offset any such dilution; and | ||

If the VRM Full Return is not paid in full by the Extension Date, then VRM may enforce the VRM Full Return Guaranty against any of the guarantors thereto as provided in the VRM Full Return Guaranty by any of the Payment Methods and without regard to the order of priority of the Payment Methods provided above. |

Except as required for payment of the VRM Full Return, the MRCS Principals agree that from the date of this Amendment they will not sell, transfer, pledge, or otherwise encumber (any such action a Transfer) their SPAC Units prior to the payment in full of the VRM Full Return if any such Transfer would result in the value of remaining amount of Up-C Units held by the MRCS Principals as of the date of such Transfer (with each Up-C Unit having a value equal to the volume weighted average price (the VWAP) of a share of Parent Class A Common Stock for the five-day period ending on the date immediately preceding the date of any Transfer) to be less than the then-outstanding unpaid VRM Full Return (calculated s of the date preceding the Transfer). The MSP Companies will not be liable for a breach of this paragraph by the MRCS Principals; provided that Parent and Purchaser will remain obligated for the VRM Full Return as provided in the VRM Full Return Guaranty and this Amendment. | ||

On January 1, 2024 (but not earlier), Parent will, at Parents option: | ||
(a) subject to VRM and Parent having agreed on a mutually acceptable form of warrant, issue to VRM a warrant to purchase a number of shares of Class A Common Stock of Parent equal to the quotient of 1% of each calendar month-end balance of the Unpaid Base Amount (calculated on a cumulative basis) and the VWAP of a share of Class A Common Stock for the five-day period prior to the issuance, beginning with May 24, 2023 and ending December 31, 2023, which warrant will have an exercise price (payable in cash) of $0.0001 per share (the Initial Warrant); provided that the Initial Warrant will expire on January 1, 2026; | ||
(b) pay in cash an amount equal to 1% of each calendar month-end balance of the Unpaid Base Amount (calculated on a cumulative basis), beginning with May 24, 2023 and ending December 31, 2023, which amount, if paid in cash prior to payment in full of the VRM Full Return will not result in a reduction of the VRM Full Return; or | ||
(c) carry out a combination of the foregoing (a) and (b) such that, in the aggregate, the cash amount actually received by VRM and the amount utilized to calculate the number of shares in (a) equals an aggregate amount equal to 1% of each calendar month-end balance of the Unpaid Base Amount (calculated on a cumulative basis). | ||
For each calendar month-end beginning with January 31, 2024, and continuing until the VRM Full Return is paid in full, Parent will, on the first business of the following month, at Parents option: | ||
(a) issue to VRM a warrant to purchase a number of shares of Class A Common Stock of Parent equal to the quotient of 1% of the calendar month-end balance of the Unpaid Base Amount and the VWAP (each, a Monthly Warrant), which warrant will have an exercise price (payable in cash) of $0.0001 per share; provided that each Monthly Warrant will expire on the second anniversary of its issuance; |
5
(b) pay in cash an amount equal to 1% of the month-end balance of the Unpaid Base Amount, which amount, if paid in cash prior to payment in full of the VRM Full Return will not result in a reduction of the VRM Full Return; or | ||
(c) carry out a combination of the foregoing (a) and (b) such that, in the aggregate, the cash amount actually received by VRM and the amount utilized to calculate the number of shares in (a) equals an aggregate amount equal to 1% of the month-end balance of the Unpaid Base Amount. | ||
For example: if at the end of a calendar month the Unpaid Base Amount is $500 million, and assuming a VWAP of $1 per share, VRM would be entitled receive a Monthly Warrant exercisable for 5 million shares of Class A Common Stock of Parent, or Parent may pay to VRM $5 million in cash (or a combination of the foregoing such that the aggregate amount is equal to $5 million). | ||
Notwithstanding the foregoing, each of the Initial Warrants and Monthly Warrants will contain customary provisions for a transaction of this type, including that each Initial Warrant and Monthly Warrant will be exercisable in whole or in part at any time prior to the expiration date, be freely transferable, subject only to applicable securities laws, be subject to anti-dilution protection regarding the exercise price and number of shares of Class A Common Stock to be issued upon the exercise of each Initial Warrant and Monthly Warrant for (i) corporate structural events (e.g., for recapitalizations, reclassifications, splits, reverse splits, reorganizations, consolidations, mergers, stock dividends and similar dilutive or structural transactions), (ii) dividends or distributions made to equity holders, (iii) issuances of equity or equity-linked securities below the then-effective exercise price, and (iv) repurchases or redemptions of equity or equity-linked securities at a price greater than fair market value, permit cashless exercise, provide reasonable information rights, and provide for a cash payment for the fair market value of each Initial Warrant and Monthly Warrant in the event of a sale of Parent (or its successor). | ||
Virage agrees not to, and to cause each of its controlled affiliates not to, use shares of Class A Common Stock of Parent (including those received upon exercise of the Initial Warrants and Monthly Warrants) to, directly or indirectly, short sell, cover a short position, loan or permit the such Persons holdings of securities of Parent (including Parent Class A Common Stock, the Initial Warrant, and any Monthly Warrants) to facilitate a short sale, any derivative transaction or similar transaction by any Person. Parent will not be required to issue more Initial Warrants or Monthly Warrants than would be permitted without shareholder approval under applicable stock exchange rules unless Parent has received the applicable stockholder approval prior to any such issuance; provided that (a) the foregoing will not limit Parents obligations above to deliver either the required cash payment or warrants (or a combination thereof) when and as due in the full amount thereof and (b) each MRCS Principal (solely in his capacity as a shareholder of Parent) agrees that it will vote in favor of the issuance of Initial Warrants and Monthly Warrants as is necessary to satisfy in full the obligations set forth in this Additional Return section. | ||
Each of the Parties hereby agrees that each of the Initial Warrants and Monthly Warrants will constitute a Transaction Agreement under and as defined in each of the existing Transaction Agreements. |

No failure to exercise, or delay in exercising, any right, remedy, power, or privilege arising from this Amendment will operate or be construed as a waiver thereof, nor will any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power, or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege.

Counterparts | This Amendment may be executed in counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original, but all of which together will be deemed to be one and the same agreement.
