(G)The Board of Directors of the Company has determined that the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement constitutes a "Business Combination" (as such term is defined in the Existing Warrant Agreement);

 

(H)TopCo has obtained all necessary corporate approvals to enter into this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated herein (including the assignment and assumption of the Existing Warrant Agreement and the related issuance of each Warrant, and exchange thereof for a warrant to subscribe for TopCo Shares on the conditions set out herein, and the exclusion of any pre-emptive rights in that respect) and by the Existing Warrant Agreement;

 

(I)The Company desires to assign all of its right, title and interest in the Existing Warrant Agreement to TopCo and TopCo wishes to accept such assignment; and

 

(J)Section 9.8 of the Existing Warrant Agreement provides that the Company and the Warrant Agent may amend the Existing Warrant Agreement without the consent of any registered holders for the purpose of curing any ambiguity or correcting any mistake or defective provision thereof or adding or changing any provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under the Existing Warrant Agreement as the Company and the Warrant Agent may deem necessary or desirable and that the Company and the Warrant Agent deem shall not adversely affect the rights of the registered holders of the Warrants under the Existing Warrant Agreement.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto agree as follows.
