(i) each Company Share that is owned by Acquiror, Merger Sub or the Company (as treasury stock or otherwise) immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time (each, an “Excluded Share”) shall be canceled and shall cease to exist and no consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor;

28

(ii) each Company Class A Share that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time (other than Excluded Shares and Dissenting Shares) shall be canceled and converted into the right to receive the Standard Per Share Equity Value Consideration and subject to the vesting and forfeiture conditions specified in Section 4.6, the Standard Per Share Earn-out Consideration;

If, after the Merger Effective Time, any Company Common Share shall lose its status as a Dissenting Share, then such Company Common Share shall immediately be converted into the right to receive the applicable Per Share Merger Consideration as if such Company Share never had been a Dissenting Share, and Acquiror (or following the Merger Effective Time, the Company) shall deliver, or cause to be delivered in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, to the holder thereof the applicable Per Share Merger Consideration as if such Company Share had never been a Dissenting Share.

29

(c) Each holder of Company Common Shares that have been converted into the right to receive a portion of the Aggregate Equity Value Consideration and the Aggregate Earn-out Consideration, pursuant to Section 4.2(a) shall be entitled to receive such portion of the Aggregate Equity Value Consideration and the Aggregate Earn-out Consideration upon receipt by the Exchange Agent of a duly completed and validly executed Letter of Transmittal and such other documents as may reasonably be requested by the Exchange Agent.

If any Company Common Shares shall not have been transferred immediately prior to the date on which any consideration payable pursuant to this Article IV would otherwise escheat to or become the property of any Governmental Authority, any such amounts 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.

(c) The Standard Earn-out Consideration, the Employee Per Share Earn-out Consideration, the Option Earn-out Shares and the RSU Earn-out Shares shall be subject to the following vesting conditions:

(i) If, at any time during the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending on the date that is five years after the Closing Date (the “Earn-out Period”), the Acquiror Trading Price at any point during the trading hours of a Trading Day is greater than or equal to $12.50 for any 20 Trading Days within any period of 30 consecutive Trading Days, the First Target Earn-out Shares shall immediately vest and no longer be subject to the forfeiture conditions provided in this Section 4.6.

(ii) If, at any time during the Earn-out Period, the Acquiror Trading Price at any point during the trading hours of a Trading Day is greater than or equal to $15.00 for any 20 Trading Days within any period of 30 consecutive Trading Days, the Second Target Earn-out Shares shall immediately vest and no longer be subject to the forfeiture conditions provided in this Section 4.6.

(d) For the avoidance of doubt, if the vesting conditions applicable to more than one of Section 4.6(c)(i), Section 4.6(c)(ii), Section 4.6(c)(iii) or Section 4.6(c)(iv) have been satisfied at any time, then all of the Earn-out Shares subject to such satisfied vesting conditions shall immediately vest and no longer be subject to the forfeiture conditions provided in this Section 4.6.

34

(e) If, upon the expiration of the Earn-out Period, the vesting of any of the Earn-out Shares has not occurred, then the applicable Earn-out Shares that failed to vest pursuant to Section 4.6(c)(i), Section 4.6(c)(ii), Section 4.6(c)(iii) or Section 4.6(c)(iv), as applicable, and any dividends or distributions previously paid or made in respect thereof shall be automatically forfeited and transferred to Acquiror for no consideration, and no Person (other than the Acquiror) shall have any further right with respect thereto. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in no event will the Applicable Earn-out Recipients collectively receive Earn-out Shares in an aggregate amount higher than the Aggregate Earn-out Consideration (or the portion thereof) that has vested in accordance with Section 4.6(c) or Section 4.6(g).

(f) If, during the Earn-out Period, the Acquiror Delaware Class A Shares outstanding as of immediately following the Merger Effective Time shall have been changed into a different number of shares or a different class, by reason of any Equity Adjustment, or any similar event shall have occurred, then the applicable Acquiror Trading Price specified in each of Section 4.6(c)(i), Section 4.6(c)(ii), Section 4.6(c)(iii) and Section 4.6(c)(iv) shall be equitably adjusted to reflect such change.

(g) In the event that there is an Acquiror Sale during the Earn-out Period, then, to the extent that the holders of Acquiror Delaware Class A Shares receive an Acquiror Sale Price that is greater than or equal to the applicable Acquiror Trading Price specified in Section 4.6(c)(i), Section 4.6(c)(ii), Section 4.6(c)(iii) or Section 4.6(c)(iv) (subject to Section 4.6(f)), any Earn-out Shares that have not previously vested in accordance with Section 4.6(c)(i), Section 4.6(c)(ii), Section 4.6(c)(iii) or Section 4.6(c)(iv), as applicable, shall be deemed to have vested (to the extent that such Earn-out Shares would have vested pursuant to Section 4.6(c)(i), Section 4.6(c)(ii), Section 4.6(c)(iii) or Section 4.6(c)(iv), as applicable, if the Acquiror Trading Price had been the Acquiror Sale Price for any 20 Trading Days within any period of 30 consecutive Trading Days during the Earn-out Period) immediately prior to the closing of such Acquiror Sale, and the holders of any Earn-out Shares deemed vested pursuant to this Section 4.6(g) shall be eligible to participate in such Acquiror Sale with respect to such Earn-out Shares on the same terms, and subject to the same conditions, as apply to the holders of Acquiror Delaware Class A Shares or Acquiror Delaware Class B Shares, as applicable, generally.

(h) For so long as any Earn-out Share remains subject to the vesting and forfeiture conditions specified in Section 4.6(c), (i) the holder thereof shall be entitled to exercise the voting rights carried by such Earn-out Share and (ii) the holder thereof shall not be entitled to receive any dividends or other distributions in respect of such Earn-out Share, and any dividends or distributions paid or made in respect of such Earn-out Share shall be retained by Acquiror and invested as and to the extent determined by Acquiror and shall be paid or made to the holder of such Earn-out Share only when and to the extent that such Earn-out Share vests in accordance with Section 4.6(c), and, to the extent that such Earn-out Share fails to vest in accordance with Section 4.6(c) prior to the expiration of the Earn-out Period, any dividends or distributions paid or made in respect thereof shall be forfeited to Acquiror for no consideration, and no Person (other than Acquiror) shall have any further right with respect thereto.

Section 4.7. Withholding. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, none of Acquiror, the Company, the Surviving Corporation or the Exchange Agent shall be entitled to deduct or withhold from any consideration payable pursuant to this Agreement any Taxes, except for any Taxes that are required to be deducted and withheld from such amounts under the Code or any other applicable Law. Acquiror shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide the Company with written notice of any amount that it intends to withhold in connection with any payment under this Agreement (other than any compensatory payments to be made pursuant to this Agreement) at least five days prior to making any such withholding (which notice shall set forth a description of the factual and legal basis for such withholding) and cooperate with the Company to reduce or eliminate any applicable withholding; provided that Acquiror shall not have any such obligations with respect to any withholding contemplated under Section 3.3. To the extent that any amount so deducted and withheld in accordance with this Section 4.7 are timely remitted to the appropriate Governmental Authority, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made. For the avoidance of doubt, in the case of any such payment payable to employees of the Company or its Subsidiaries in connection with the Merger treated as compensation, the Parties shall cooperate to pay such amounts through the Company’s or the relevant Subsidiary’s payroll to facilitate applicable withholding.

As of the date of this Agreement, except for any Acquiror Transaction Expenses payable by Acquiror or Merger Sub as a result of or in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby as described herein, there is no other Liability of Acquiror or Merger Sub that would be required to be set forth or reserved for on a consolidated balance sheet prepared in accordance with GAAP consistently applied and in accordance with past practice, except for Liabilities (a) reflected or reserved for on the financial statements or disclosed in the notes thereto included in the Acquiror SEC Filings, (b) that have arisen since the date of the most recent balance sheet included in the Acquiror SEC Filings in the ordinary course of business of Acquiror and Merger Sub or (c) which would not be, or would not reasonably be expected to be, material to Acquiror.

Section 6.10. Trust Account. As of the date of this Agreement, Acquiror has at least $1,725,000,000.00 in the Trust Account, such monies invested in U.S. government securities or money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 promulgated under the Investment Company Act pursuant to the Investment Management Trust Agreement, dated as of February 23, 2021 (the “Trust Agreement”), between Acquiror and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as trustee (the “Trustee”). There are no separate Contracts, side letters or other arrangements or understandings (whether written or unwritten, express or implied) that would cause the description of the Trust Agreement in the Acquiror SEC Filings to be inaccurate or that would entitle any Person (other than eligible Acquiror Shareholders who have elected to effect an Acquiror Share Redemption and the underwriters of Acquiror’s initial public offering with respect to deferred underwriting commissions) to any portion of the proceeds in the Trust Account. Prior to the Closing, none of the funds held in the Trust Account may be released other than the withdrawal of interest to fund working capital requirements (subject to an aggregate limit of $3,000,000), to pay Taxes and make payments with respect to Acquiror Share Redemptions or redemption of Acquiror Cayman Class A Shares in connection with any amendment to Acquiror’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association. There are no claims or proceedings pending or, to the knowledge of Acquiror, threatened with respect to the Trust Account. Acquiror has performed all material obligations required to be performed by it to date under, and is not in default under, in breach of, or delinquent in

59

performance or any other respect (claimed or actual) in connection with, the Trust Agreement, and no event has occurred which, with due notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute such a default or breach thereunder.

Each Subscription Agreement is a legal, valid and binding obligation of Acquiror and, to the knowledge of Acquiror, the applicable PIPE Investor party thereto, and neither the execution or delivery thereof by Acquiror nor the performance of Acquiror’s obligations under any such Subscription Agreement violates, or will at the Closing violate, any Laws.

(b) For a period of six years following the Closing Date, Acquiror shall maintain in effect directors’ and officers’ liability insurance covering those Persons who are currently covered by Acquiror’s, the Company’s or any of their respective Subsidiaries’ directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies (true, correct and complete copies of which have been heretofore made available to each of Acquiror and the Company) on terms substantially the same as (and, in any event, not less favorable in the aggregate than) the terms of such current insurance coverage, except that in no event shall Acquiror be required to pay an annual premium for such insurance in excess of three hundred percent (300%) of the aggregate annual premium payable by Acquiror or the Company, as applicable, for such insurance policy for the year ended December 31, 2021; provided, however, that if the premium for such insurance would exceed such amount or such coverage is not otherwise available, then Acquiror shall purchase and maintain the maximum coverage available for three hundred percent (300%) of the aggregate annual premium payable by Acquiror or the Company, as applicable, for such insurance policy for the year ended December 31, 2021; provided, further, that (i) Acquiror may cause coverage to be extended under the current directors’ and officers’ liability insurance by obtaining a six-year “tail” policy containing terms substantially the same as (and, in any event, not less favorable in the aggregate than) the terms of such current insurance coverage with respect to claims existing or occurring at or prior to the Merger Effective Time and (ii) if any claim is asserted or made within such six-year period, any insurance required to be maintained under this Section 8.7 shall be continued in respect of such claim until the final disposition thereof.

(c) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, this Section 8.7 shall survive the consummation of the Merger indefinitely and shall be binding, jointly and severally, on Acquiror and all successors and assigns of Acquiror. In the event that Acquiror or any of its successors or assigns consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or transfers or conveys all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, Acquiror shall ensure that proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of Acquiror shall succeed to the obligations set forth in this Section 8.7.

(d) Prior to or at the Closing, Acquiror shall enter into customary indemnification agreements reasonably satisfactory to each of the Company and Acquiror with each Person who shall be a director or an officer of Acquiror immediately after the merger Effective Time, which indemnification agreements shall continue to be effective following the Closing.

(e) The rights of each D&O Indemnified Party hereunder shall be in addition to, and not in limitation of, any other rights such person may have under the Governing Documents of the Company, any other indemnification arrangement, any Law or otherwise. The provisions of this Section 8.7 expressly are intended to benefit, and are enforceable by, each of the D&O Indemnified Parties, each of whom is an intended third-party beneficiary of this Section 8.7.

Section 8.8. Acquiror Public Filings. From the date hereof through the Merger Effective Time, Acquiror will keep current and timely file all periodic reports required to be filed or furnished with the SEC and otherwise comply in all material respects with its reporting obligations under applicable Laws.

Section 8.9. PIPE Subscriptions. Unless otherwise approved in writing by the Company, Acquiror shall not permit any amendment or modification to be made to, any waiver (in whole or in part) of, or provide consent to modify (including consent to terminate), any provision or remedy under, or any replacements of, any of the Subscription Agreements. Subject to the immediately preceding sentence, Acquiror shall use its reasonable best efforts to take, or to cause to be taken, all actions required, necessary or that it otherwise deems to be proper or advisable to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Subscription Agreements on the terms described therein, including using its reasonable best efforts to enforce its rights under the Subscription Agreements to cause the PIPE Investors to pay to (or as directed by) Acquiror the applicable purchase price under each PIPE Investor’s applicable Subscription Agreement in accordance with its terms. For purposes of satisfying the condition set forth in Section 10.3(d), Acquiror may enter into additional Subscription Agreements with the Company’s prior written consent as long as the purchase price is at least $10.00 per PIPE share so subscribed for. The proceeds raised pursuant to such additional Subscription Agreement(s) shall be included in the determination of the Acquiror Closing Cash Amount.

77

under which they were made, not misleading, the Party which discovers such information shall promptly notify the other Parties 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 the Acquiror Shareholders.

78

foregoing (such proposals described in the foregoing clauses (A) through (K), together, the “Transaction Proposals”), and include such recommendation in the Proxy Statement. The Acquiror Board shall not withdraw, amend, qualify or modify its recommendation to the Acquiror Shareholders that they vote in favor of the Transaction Proposals (together with any withdrawal, amendment, qualification or modification of any of the Acquiror Board Actions, a “Modification in Recommendation”). To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, (x) Acquiror’s obligations to establish a record date for, duly call, give notice of, convene and hold the Acquiror Shareholders’ Meeting shall not be affected by any Modification in Recommendation and (y) Acquiror agrees to establish a record date for, duly call, give notice of, convene and hold the Acquiror Shareholders’ Meeting and submit for approval the Transaction Proposals.

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 12.1. Trust Account Waiver. The Company acknowledges that Acquiror is a blank check company with the powers and privileges to effect a Business Combination. The Company further acknowledges that, as described in the prospectus dated February 25, 2021 (the “Prospectus”) available at www.sec.gov, substantially all of Acquiror’s assets consist of the cash proceeds of Acquiror’s initial public offering and private placements of its securities occurring substantially simultaneously with such initial public offering, and substantially all of those proceeds have been deposited in a trust account for the benefit of Acquiror, certain of its public stockholders and the underwriters of Acquiror’s initial public offering (the “Trust Account”). The Company acknowledges that it has been advised by Acquiror that cash in the Trust Account may be disbursed only in the circumstances and to the Persons described in the Prospectus and in accordance with the Trust Agreement. For and in consideration of Acquiror entering into this Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Company hereby irrevocably waives any right, title, interest or claim of any kind (whether based on contract, tort, equity or otherwise) that it has or may have in the future in or to any monies or other assets in the Trust Account and agrees not to seek recourse against the Trust Account or any funds distributed therefrom as a result of, or in connection with, this Agreement or any negotiations, Contracts or agreements or transactions with Acquiror. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, (a) nothing herein shall limit or prohibit the Company’s right to pursue any claim against Acquiror for (i) legal relief against monies or other assets held outside the Trust Account or (ii) specific performance to consummate the Closing (including any claim for Acquiror to specifically perform its obligations under this Agreement to cause the disbursement of the balance of the cash remaining in the Trust Account (after giving effect to the Acquiror Share Redemptions) at the Closing to the Company in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Trust Agreement), so long as such claim would not affect Acquiror’s ability to fulfill its obligation to effectuate the Acquiror Share Redemptions or otherwise violate the Trust Agreement and (b) nothing herein shall limit or prohibit any claim that the Company may have in the future against Acquiror’s assets or funds that are not held in the Trust Account (including any such funds that have been released from the Trust Account and any assets that have been purchased or acquired with any such funds).

Certain information set forth in the Disclosure Letters is included solely for informational purposes and may not be required to be disclosed pursuant to this Agreement. The disclosure of any information shall not be deemed to constitute an acknowledgment that such information is required to be disclosed in connection with any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement contained in, or other provision of, this Agreement, nor shall such information be deemed to establish a standard of materiality.

88

Section 12.13. Severability.
