Agreement

 

1. Issuance and Exchange.

 

(a) Acquired Shares.

 

(i) Immediately prior to the consummation of the Ranpak Business Combination, and subject to the conditions set forth in Section 6 of this Agreement, (i) each Private Placement Warrant shall be deemed automatically cancelled in full and each Private Placement Warrant Agreement shall be deemed automatically terminated and all rights, liabilities and obligations thereunder discharged in full, and (ii) in consideration therefor, the Company shall issue to each Investor the number and class of Acquired Shares set forth opposite such Investor’s name on Exhibit A to this Agreement.

 

(ii) The closing of the cancellation of the Private Placement Warrants in exchange for the issuance of the Acquired Shares (the “Warrant Exchange Closing”) shall be held on the same date and immediately prior to the Business Combination Closing (such date being referred to as the “Closing Date”). At the Warrant Exchange Closing, the Company will issue to the Investors the Acquired Shares, each registered in the name of the applicable Investor, against (and concurrently with) surrender of the Private Placement Warrants to the Company.

 

 

 

 

(b) Delivery of Securities.

 

(i) The Company shall register the Investors as the owner of the Acquired Shares in the register of members of the Company and with the Company’s transfer agent by book entry on or promptly after (but in no event more than two (2) Business Days after) the date of the Warrant Exchange Closing.

 

(ii) Each register and book entry for the Acquired Shares shall contain a notation, and each certificate (if any) evidencing the Acquired Shares shall be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend, in substantially the following form:

 

“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE OR OTHER JURISDICTION, AND MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED IN VIOLATION OF SUCH ACT AND LAWS.”

 

(c) Legend Removal. If the Acquired Shares are eligible to be sold without restriction under, and without the Company being in compliance with the current public information requirements of, Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), then at the Investor’s request, the Company will cause the Company’s transfer agent to remove the legend set forth in Section 1(b)(ii). In connection therewith, if required by the Company’s transfer agent, the Company will promptly cause an opinion of counsel to be delivered to and maintained with its transfer agent, together with any other authorizations, certificates and directions required by the transfer agent that authorize and direct the transfer agent to issue such Acquired Shares without any such legend; provided, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company will not be required to deliver any such opinion, authorization, certificate or direction if it reasonably believes that removal of the legend could result in or facilitate transfers of Securities in violation of applicable law.

 

(d) Registration Rights. The Company and the Investors are parties to existing agreements pursuant to which the Company has granted to the Investors registration rights with respect to the shares acquired by the Investor prior to completion of the Business Combination Closing, and the Company and the Investor agree that the Acquired Shares will constitute “Registrable Securities” for purposes of such agreement (the “Registration Rights”).

 

(e) Each of the Investor and the Company intend that for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the transactions described in Section 1(a)(i) of this Agreement will qualify as a “recapitalization” within the meaning of section 368(a)(i)(E) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and that this Agreement constitutes a “plan of reorganization” as defined in Treasury Regulations Section 1.368-2(g).

 

2. Representations and Warranties of the Investors. Each Investor represents and warrants (as to itself and not as to any other Investor) to the Company as follows as of the date hereof:

 

(a) Organization and Power. If an entity, such Investor is duly organized, validly existing, and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its formation (if the concept of “good standing” is a recognized concept in such jurisdiction) and has all requisite power and authority to carry on its business as presently conducted and as proposed to be conducted.

 

(b) Authorization. Such Investor has full power and authority to enter into this Agreement. This Agreement, when executed and delivered by such Investor, will constitute the valid and legally binding obligation of such Investor, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except (a) as limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance and any other laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, (b) as limited by laws relating to the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies, or (c) to the extent the indemnification provisions contained in the Registration Rights may be limited by applicable federal or state securities laws.

(c) Governmental Consents and Filings. No consent, approval, order or authorization of, or registration, qualification, designation, declaration or filing with, any federal, state or local governmental authority is required on the part of such Investor in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Ranpak Business Combination.

 

(d) Compliance with Other Instruments. The execution, delivery and performance by such Investor of this Agreement and the consummation by such Investor of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement will not result in any violation or default (i) of any provisions of its organizational documents, if applicable, (ii) of any instrument, judgment, order, writ or decree to which it is a party or by which it is bound, (iii) under any note, indenture or mortgage to which it is a party or by which it is bound, (iv) under any lease, agreement, contract or purchase order to which it is a party or by which it is bound or (v) of any provision of federal or state statute, rule or regulation applicable to such Investor.

 

(e) Acquisition Entirely for Own Account. This Agreement is made with such Investor in reliance upon such Investor’s representation to the Company, which by such Investor’s execution of this Agreement, such Investor hereby confirms, that the Acquired Shares to be acquired by such Investor will be acquired for investment for such Investor’s own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the resale or distribution of any part thereof, and that such Investor has no present intention of selling, granting any participation in, or otherwise distributing the same in violation of law. By executing this Agreement, such Investor further represents that such Investor does not presently have any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any Person to sell, transfer or grant participations to such Person or to any third Person, with respect to any of the Acquired Shares. If such Investor was formed for the specific purpose of acquiring the Acquired Shares, each of its equity owners is an accredited investor as defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act.

(f) Disclosure of Information. Such Investor has had an opportunity to discuss the Company’s business, management, financial affairs and the terms and conditions of the offering of the Acquired Securities, as well as the terms of the Stock Purchase Agreement, with the Company’s management.

 

(g) Restricted Securities. Such Investor understands that the Acquired Shares have not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act, by reason of a specific exemption from the registration provisions of the Securities Act which depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of the investment intent and the accuracy of such Investor’s representations as expressed herein. Such Investor understands that the Acquired Shares are “restricted securities” under applicable U.S. federal and state securities laws and that, pursuant to these laws, such Investor must hold the Acquired Shares indefinitely unless they are registered with the SEC and qualified by state authorities, or an exemption from such registration and qualification requirements is available. Such Investor acknowledges that the Company has no obligation to register or qualify the Acquired Shares for resale, except for the Registration Rights. Such Investor further acknowledges that if an exemption from registration or qualification is available, it may be conditioned on various requirements including, but not limited to, the time and manner of sale, the holding period for the Acquired Shares, and on requirements relating to the Company which are outside of such Investor’s control, and which the Company is under no obligation and may not be able to satisfy.

 

(h) High Degree of Risk. Such Investor understands that its agreement to acquire the Acquired Shares involves a high degree of risk which could cause such Investor to lose all or part of its investment.

Such Investor’s acquisition for and continued beneficial ownership of the Acquired Shares will not violate any applicable securities or other laws of such Investor’s jurisdiction.

Neither such Investor, nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, stockholders or partners has either directly or indirectly, including, through a broker or finder (i) to its knowledge, engaged in any general solicitation, or (ii) published any advertisement in connection with the offer and sale of the Acquired Shares.

(o) Construction. The parties hereto have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. If an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement will be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties hereto and no presumption or burden of proof will arise favoring or disfavoring any party hereto because of the authorship of any provision of this Agreement. Any reference to any federal, state, local, or foreign law will be deemed also to refer to law as amended and all rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, unless the context requires otherwise. The words “include,” “includes,” and “including” will be deemed to be followed by “without limitation.” Pronouns in masculine, feminine, and neuter genders will be construed to include any other gender, and words in the singular form will be construed to include the plural and vice versa, unless the context otherwise requires. The words “this Agreement,” “herein,” “hereof,” “hereby,” “hereunder,” and words of similar import refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular subdivision unless expressly so limited. The parties hereto intend that each representation, warranty, and covenant contained herein will have independent significance. If any party hereto has breached any representation, warranty, or covenant contained herein in any respect, the fact that there exists another representation, warranty or covenant relating to the same subject matter (regardless of the relative levels of specificity) which such party hereto has not breached will not detract from or mitigate the fact that such party hereto is in breach of the first representation, warranty, or covenant.

 

(p) Waiver. No waiver by any party hereto of any default, misrepresentation, or breach of warranty or covenant hereunder, whether intentional or not, may be deemed to extend to any prior or subsequent default, misrepresentation, or breach of warranty or covenant hereunder or affect in any way any rights arising because of any prior or subsequent occurrence.

 

(q) Confidentiality. Except as may be required by law, regulation or applicable stock exchange listing requirements, unless and until the transactions contemplated hereby and the terms hereof are publicly announced or otherwise publicly disclosed by the Company, the parties hereto shall keep confidential and shall not publicly disclose the existence or terms of this Agreement. Each Investor hereby acknowledges that in connection with its examination of certain confidential information that has been or will be provided to it and/or its representatives regarding the proposed Ranpak Business Combination, such Investor and/or its representatives may have access to material non-public information concerning the Company and Ranpak. Each Investor agrees to keep this information confidential. Each Investor acknowledges that it is aware (and that its representatives have been or will be advised by it) that the United States and other applicable securities laws prohibit any person who has received from an issuer material nonpublic information relating to such issuer from purchasing or selling securities of such issuer or from communicating such information to any other person under circumstances in which it is reasonably foreseeable that such person is likely to purchase or sell such securities.

 

(r) Specific Performance. Each Investor agrees that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any provision of this Agreement was not performed by such Investor in accordance with the specific terms hereof or was otherwise breached, and that money damages or legal remedies would not be an adequate remedy for any such damages. Therefore, it is accordingly agreed that the Company shall be entitled to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement, or to enforce compliance with, the covenants and obligations of the Investors, in any court of competent jurisdiction, and appropriate injunctive relief shall be granted in connection therewith. The Company, in seeking an injunction, a decree or order of specific performance, shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection therewith and any such remedy shall be in addition and not in substitution for any other remedy to which the Company is entitled at law or in equity.
