The parties to this Agreement hereby (i) adopt this Agreement insofar as it relates to the Merger as a “plan of reorganization” within the meaning of Section 1.368-2(g) of the United States Treasury regulations, (ii) agree to file and retain such information as shall be required under Section 1.368-3 of the United States Treasury regulations, and (iii) agree to file all Tax and other informational returns on a basis consistent with the U.S. Tax Treatment. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the parties acknowledge and agree that, other than the representations set forth in Sections 4.24(b) and 5.18(e), no party is making any representation or warranty as to the qualification of the Merger as a reorganization under Section 368(a) of the Code or as to the effect, if any, that any transaction consummated on, after or prior to the Effective Time has or may have on any such reorganization status. Each of the parties acknowledges and agrees that each such party (A) has had the opportunity to obtain independent legal and tax advice with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and (B) is responsible for paying its own Taxes, including any adverse Tax consequences that may result if the Merger is determined not to qualify as a reorganization under Section 368(a) of the Code.

For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall any such Tax Opinion be a condition to Closing.

2.5 Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws.

(a) At the Effective Time, the Company Certificate of Incorporation and bylaws, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall cease to have effect and the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of Merger Sub, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall be the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving Corporation, except that references to the name of Merger Sub shall be replaced by references to the name of “Tomorrow.io Inc.”

2.9 No Further Ownership Rights in Company Securities.

At the Effective Time, (a) all Dissenting Shares shall be cancelled, extinguished and cease to exist and (b) the holders of Dissenting Shares shall be entitled only to such rights as may be granted to them under the DGCL. Each holder of Dissenting Shares who, pursuant to the DGCL, becomes entitled to payment thereunder for such shares shall receive payment therefor in accordance with the DGCL (but only after the value therefor shall have been agreed upon or finally determined pursuant to such provisions). If, after the Effective Time, any Dissenting Shares shall lose their status as Dissenting Shares, then any such shares shall immediately be deemed to have converted at the Effective Time into the right to receive the applicable portion of the Consideration Shares (upon the terms and conditions of this Agreement) in respect of such shares as if such shares never had been Dissenting Shares, and Parent shall issue and deliver (or cause to be issued and delivered) to the holder thereof, following the satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in this Agreement, the applicable portion of the Consideration Shares as if such shares never had been Dissenting Shares. The Company shall give Parent prompt written notice (and in any event within two (2) Business Days) of any demands received by the Company for appraisal of shares of Company Capital Stock, attempted withdrawals of such demands and any other instruments served pursuant to the DGCL and received by the Company relating to rights to be paid the fair value of Dissenting Shares, and Parent shall have the right to participate in and, following the Effective Time, direct all negotiations and proceedings with respect to such demands. Prior to the Effective Time, neither the Company nor Parent shall, except with the prior written consent of the other party (in its sole discretion), or as otherwise required under the DGCL, (i) make any payment or offer to make any payment with respect to, or settle or compromise or offer to settle or compromise, any claim or demand in respect of any Dissenting Shares, (ii) waive any failure to timely deliver a written demand for appraisal or otherwise comply with the provisions under Section 262 of the DGCL or (iii) agree or commit to do any of the foregoing.

ARTICLE III

CONSIDERATION

3.1 Conversion of Company Securities.

(a) Conversion of Company Capital Stock. Subject to Section 2.10, at the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company or the Company Securityholders, (i) each share of Company Capital Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than the Dissenting Shares and shares of Company Series X Preferred Stock) shall be canceled and automatically converted into the right to receive a number of Parent Class A Shares equal to the Conversion Ratio and (ii) each share of Company Series X Preferred Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Dissenting Shares) shall be canceled and automatically converted into the right to receive a number of Parent Class A Shares equal to the Series X Conversion Ratio (collectively, clauses (i) and (ii), the “Consideration Shares”). If any shares of Company Capital Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time are shares of Company Restricted Stock, then the Parent Class A Shares issued in exchange for such Company Restricted Stock pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence shall to the same extent be unvested and subject to the same repurchase option or risk of forfeiture, and the certificates and/or book entries representing such Parent Class A Shares shall accordingly be marked with appropriate legends.

(b) Treatment of Company Options. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company and Parent and the Board of Directors of the Company (or any duly authorized committee thereof) shall, as applicable, take or cause to be taken all corporate actions necessary, including adopting appropriate resolutions to provide that, as of the Effective Time, each Company Option (whether or not vested) shall be assumed by Parent and shall continue in full force and effect, containing the same terms, conditions, vesting and other provisions as are currently applicable to such Company Options; provided that (A) each such Company Option shall be exercisable for such number of Parent Class A Shares that equals the Conversion Ratio multiplied by the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Company Option as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, in each case, at such per share exercise price that shall equal the per share exercise price of such Company Option as of immediately prior to the Effective Time divided by the Conversion Ratio (as so converted, a “Converted Company Option”), further provided that (B) with respect to each such Company Option, any fractional shares that would be issuable upon exercise thereof will be rounded down to the nearest whole number of Parent Class A Shares and the per share exercise price will be rounded up to the nearest whole cent. Parent shall adopt the Parent Equity Incentive Plan, which will cover the Converted Company Options, pursuant to Section 8.6; provided, however, that the per share exercise price and the number of Parent Class A Shares purchasable pursuant to each Converted Company Option shall be determined in a manner consistent with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code; further provided that in the case of any Unvested Company Options to which Section 422 of the Code applies, the exercise price and the number of Parent Class A Shares purchasable pursuant to the applicable Converted Company Option shall be determined in accordance with the foregoing, subject to such adjustments as are necessary in order to satisfy the requirements of Section 424(a) of the Code.

(c) Treatment of the Company Warrants. At the Effective Time, the Company Warrants shall no longer be outstanding and each Person who previously held Company Warrants shall cease to have any rights with respect to such Company Warrants in accordance with its terms.

Each share of Merger Sub that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will, by virtue of the Merger and without further action on the part of the sole shareholder of Merger Sub, be converted into and become one share of the Surviving Corporation (and the shares of the Surviving Corporation into which the shares of Merger Sub are so converted shall be the only shares of the Surviving Corporation that are issued and outstanding immediately after the Effective Time). Each certificate evidencing ownership of shares of Merger Sub will, as of the Effective Time, be deemed to evidence ownership of such shares of the Surviving Corporation.

(e) Treatment of Shares of Company Capital Stock Owned by the Company. At the Effective Time, all shares of Company Capital Stock that are owned by the Company as treasury shares immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be canceled and extinguished without any conversion thereof.

(f) Surrender of Certificates. All Consideration Shares issued upon the surrender and cancellation of the Company Capital Stock, in accordance with the terms hereof, shall be deemed to have been issued in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such securities.

(g) Lost or Destroyed Certificates. In the event any certificates representing shares of Company Capital Stock shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, Parent shall issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed certificates or securities, as the case may be, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the holder thereof (without the requirement to post a bond), such securities, as may be required pursuant to this Section 3.1.

(h) Capitalization Schedule. No later than three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall deliver to Parent a final and updated Capitalization Schedule, which sets forth the following information: (i) the name of each Company Securityholder; (ii) the number and type or class/series of each Company Security held by each Company Securityholder, including, if applicable to such Company Securityholder, the number of shares of Company Common Stock issuable upon conversion or exercise of such Company Security and the exercise price per share for such Company Security; (iii) the vesting arrangements with respect to each Company Security held by such Company Securityholder (including the vesting schedule, vesting commencement date, date fully vested and the extent to which such Company Security is or will be vested as of the Effective Time); (iv) the total number of Parent Class A Shares issuable pursuant to Section 3.1(a) in respect of each share of Company Capital Stock held by such Company Securityholder; and (v) the total number of Parent Class A Shares issuable pursuant to Section 3.1(b) upon conversion of each Company Option held by such Company Securityholder, and the respective exercise price per share applicable to such Company Option following the Effective Time. The parties agree that the Capitalization Schedule delivered by the Company to Parent prior to the Closing Date solely represents the Company’s good faith estimate of such information and calculations and is not binding on the parties in any respect.

3.2 No Fractional Shares. No fractional Parent Class A Shares, or certificates or scrip representing fractional Parent Class A Shares, will be issued upon the conversion of the Company Capital Stock pursuant to the Merger, and such fractional share interests will not entitle the owner thereof to vote or to any rights of a stockholder of Parent. Any fractional Parent Class A Shares will be rounded down to the nearest whole number of Parent Class A Shares.

3.3 Withholding. Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable to any Person pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as may be required to be deducted or withheld with respect to the making of such payment under the Code, or under any provision of state, local or non-U.S. Tax Law. To the extent that amounts are so deducted and withheld and timely remitted to the appropriate Taxing Authorities, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes under this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Parent, the Company and the Surviving Corporation shall use reasonable best efforts to reduce or eliminate any such withholding including requesting and providing recipients of consideration with a reasonable opportunity to provide documentation establishing exemptions from or reductions of such withholdings.

As of the date of this Agreement, there are no other agreements, side letters, or arrangements between Parent and any PIPE Investors relating to the Subscription Agreement and, as of the date hereof, to the Knowledge of Parent, there are no facts or circumstances that may reasonably be expected to result in any of the conditions set forth in any of the Subscription Agreements not being satisfied, or the PIPE Investment Amount not being available to Parent, on the Closing Date. As of the date hereof, such Subscription Agreements are in full force and effect with respect to, and binding on, Parent and, to the Knowledge of Parent, on each PIPE Investor party thereto (subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium and similar Laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject, as to enforceability, to general principles of equity), in accordance with their terms, and has not been withdrawn or terminated, or otherwise amended or modified in any respect, and no withdrawal, termination, amendment or modification is contemplated by Parent.

Prior to the Closing, none of the funds held in the Trust Account may be released except in accordance with the Trust Agreement and Parent’s Certificate of Incorporation.

Parent and the Company shall promptly respond to any SEC comments on the Form S-4. The Proxy Statement, the Form S-4 and the documents included or referred to therein, together with any supplements, amendments or exhibits thereto, are referred to herein as the “Offer Documents”.

(b) Parent shall (i) permit the Company and its counsel to review and comment on the Proxy Statement and Form S-4 and any exhibits, amendments or supplements thereto (or other related documents); (ii) shall consider any such comments in good faith; and (iii) not file the Proxy Statement and Form S-4 or any exhibit, amendment or supplement thereto without the prior written consent of the Company, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

Without limiting the foregoing, Parent and the Company shall each ensure that each of the Form S-4, as of the Effective Date, and the Proxy Statement, as of the date on which it is first distributed to Parent’s stockholders, and as of the date of the Parent Stockholder Meeting, does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements made, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading (provided that Parent shall not be responsible for the accuracy or completeness of any information relating to the Company or any other information furnished by the Company for inclusion in the Proxy Statement). The Company represents and warrants that the information relating to the Company supplied by the Company for inclusion in the Form S-4 or the Proxy Statement, as applicable, as of the Effective Date and the date on which the Proxy Statement (or any amendment or supplement thereto) is first distributed to Parent Stockholders or at the time of the Parent Stockholder Meeting, does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements made, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. If at any time prior to the Effective Time, a change in the information relating to the Company or any other information furnished by Parent, Merger Sub or the Company for inclusion in the Proxy Statement, which would make the preceding sentence incorrect, should be discovered by Parent, Merger Sub or the Company, as applicable, such party shall promptly notify the other parties of such change or discovery and an appropriate amendment or supplement describing such information shall be promptly filed with the SEC and, to the extent required by Law, disseminated to Parent’s stockholders.

(f) Parent and the Company shall each use its reasonable best efforts to cause the S-4 and the Proxy Statement to “clear” comments from the SEC and the S-4 to become effective as promptly as reasonably practicable. The Offer Documents shall provide the public stockholders of Parent with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their public Parent Class A Shares, up to that number of Parent Class A Shares that would permit Parent to maintain net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001, at a price per share determined in accordance with the Parent Certificate of Incorporation, all in accordance with applicable Law and any applicable rules and regulations of the SEC. In accordance with the Parent Certificate of Incorporation, the proceeds held in the Trust Account will be used for the redemption of the Parent Class A Shares held by Parent’s public stockholders who have elected to redeem such shares, if any.

(h) Parent shall call and hold the Parent Stockholder Meeting as promptly as practicable after the Effective Date for the purpose of seeking the approval of each of the Parent Proposals, Parent may postpone or adjourn the Parent Stockholder Meeting on one or more occasions for up to 30 days in the aggregate if such postponement or adjournment is necessary to solicit additional proxies to obtain approval of the Parent Proposals or if holders of Parent Class A Shares have elected to redeem a number of Parent Class A Shares as of such time that would reasonably be expected to result in the condition set forth in Section 9.1(j) not being satisfied as of Closing and Parent shall consult in good faith with the Company with respect to the date on which such meeting is to be held and any postponements or adjournments. Parent shall use reasonable best efforts to solicit from its stockholders proxies in favor of the approval and adoption of the Merger and this Agreement and shall take all other actions reasonably necessary or advisable to secure the Parent Stockholder Approval. The Company acknowledges that a substantial portion of the Proxy Statement shall include disclosure regarding the Company and its management, operations and financial condition. Accordingly, the Company agrees to as promptly as reasonably practical provide Parent with such information as shall be reasonably requested by Parent for inclusion in or attachment to the Proxy Statement, and that such information is accurate in all material respects and complies as to form in all material respects with the requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. The Company understands that such information shall be included in the Proxy Statement/Form S-4 or responses to comments from the SEC or its staff in connection therewith.

For and in consideration of Parent agreeing to enter into this Agreement, the Company hereby agrees that (i) it does not now and shall not at any time hereafter have any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies in the Trust Account, except for redemption and liquidation rights, if any, the Company may have in respect of any Parent Class A Shares held by it or the release of proceeds from the Trust Account upon consummation of the Merger, and (ii) it will have no right of set-off or any right, title, interest or claim of any kind (“Claim”) to, or to any monies in, the Trust Account, and hereby irrevocably waives any Claim to, or any monies in, the Trust Account that it may have now or in the future, except for redemption and liquidation rights, if any, the Company may have in respect of any Parent Class A Shares held by it or the release of proceeds from the Trust Account upon consummation of the Merger; provided, that (x) nothing herein shall serve to limit or prohibit the Company’s right to pursue a claim against Parent for legal relief against monies or other assets outside the Trust Account, for specific performance or other equitable relief in connection with the consummation of the transactions (including a claim for Parent to specifically perform its obligations under this Agreement and cause the disbursement of the balance of the cash remaining in the Trust Account) and (y) nothing herein shall serve to limit or prohibit any claims that the Company may have in the future against Parent’s assets or funds that are not held in the Trust Account. The Company acknowledges and agrees that this Section 11.14 is material to this Agreement and has been specifically relied upon by Parent to induce Parent to enter into this Agreement, and the Company further intends and understands this Section 11.14 to be valid, binding and enforceable under applicable Law. In the event the Company commences any action or proceeding which seeks, in whole or in part, relief against the funds held in the Trust Account in breach of this Agreement, the Company will be obligated to pay to Parent all of its legal fees and costs in connection with any such action in the event Parent prevails in such action or proceeding.

11.15 Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial.
