SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT

This SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of December 8, 2020, is made by and among Thayer Ventures Acquisition Holdings LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Company”), and the person or entity listed on Schedule A hereto (the “Unitholder”). Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement of the Company, dated as of even date herewith, as amended and in effect from time to time (the “LLC Agreement”).

WHEREAS, the Company was formed under the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act, and is the sponsor of Thayer Ventures Acquisition Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “SPAC”) in connection with the SPAC’s merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses (a “Business Combination”); and

WHEREAS, the SPAC has confidentially submitted to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) a draft registration statement on Form S-1 (the “Registration Statement”) for its initial public offering (“IPO”) of units (the “Public Units”), at a price of $10.00 per Public Unit, each Public Unit comprised of one share of the Company’s Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Class A Common Stock”, and the shares of Class A Common Stock included in the Public Units, the “Public Shares”), and one-half of one redeemable warrant, where each whole warrant is initially exercisable to purchase one share of Class A Common Stock at an exercise price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment (the “Warrants”, and the Warrants included in the Public Units, the “Public Warrants”).

WHEREAS, following the closing of the IPO (the “IPO Closing”), the SPAC will seek to identify and consummate a Business Combination;

WHEREAS, in connection with the IPO, the Company will purchase, in a private placement that will close simultaneously with the IPO Closing, warrants which are identical to the Warrants except that they will be non-redeemable and exercisable on a cashless basis so long as they are held by the Company or its permitted transferees (the “Private Placement Warrants”), for a purchase price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant;

WHEREAS, the parties wish to enter into this Agreement, pursuant to which the Unitholder shall subscribe for (i) a Capital Commitment in an aggregate amount set forth on Schedule A in exchange for the issuance by the Company of aggregate Class C Common Units of the Company set forth on Schedule A (“Class C Common Units”) and (ii) in connection with the Company’s purchase of Private Placement Warrants, a Capital Commitment in an aggregate amount set forth on Schedule A in exchange for the issuance by the Company of aggregate Class D Common Units of the Company set forth on Schedule A (“Class D Common Units”).

NOW THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:


1. Capital Commitment. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Unitholder hereby agrees to make a Capital Commitment equal to an aggregate amount set forth on Schedule A (the “Capital Commitment”) in exchange for the issuance by the Company of an aggregate of Class C Common Units and Class D Common Units set forth on Schedule A (the “Units”). One hundred percent (100%) of the Unitholder’s Capital Commitment attributable to its Class C Common Units shall be due and payable at the time of the Unitholder’s admission to the Company. All payments of the Unitholder’s Capital Commitment with respect to Class D Common Units shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds pursuant to instructions provided by the Company in accordance with the terms of the LLC Agreement. All references herein are to United States Dollars.

(b) Concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement:

(i) the Company shall deliver to the Unitholder (or such Unitholder’s custodian, as per its delivery instructions), a counterpart to the LLC Agreement duly executed by the Company;

(ii) the Unitholder shall deliver to the Company, a counterpart to the LLC Agreement duly executed by the Unitholder; and

(iii) the Unitholder shall deliver to the Company an Accredited Investor Questionnaire.

(c) If the IPO Closing has not occurred by December 31, 2020, then the Company will promptly redeem the Unitholder’s Class C Common Units issued pursuant to this Section 1 for a cash payment equal to the capital contributions made by the Unitholder with respect to the Class C Common Units, and this Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force or effect.

(d) If the actual number of Public Units offered and sold in the IPO is less than 15,000,000, then the Company shall promptly redeem the Unitholder’s Class C Common Units issued pursuant to Section 1(a)(i) for a cash payment equal to the capital contributions paid by the Unitholder in respect of such Class C Common Units and this Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force or effect. As used herein, “Business Day” means any day, other than a Saturday or a Sunday, that is neither a legal holiday nor a day on which banking institutions are generally authorized or required by law or regulation to close in the City of New York, New York. If the IPO Closing has not occurred by the date that is seven (7) Business Days after the effective date of the SPAC’s Registration Statement, then, unless the Unitholder otherwise agrees in writing, the Company will promptly return such capital contributions made by the Unitholder in respect of its Class C Common Units to the Unitholder.

(e) Potential Forfeiture.

(i) If on the Business Day following the IPO Closing, the Unitholder or its Affiliate beneficially owns or holds, directly or indirectly, including through any firm commitments to purchase, a number of Public Shares that is less than the Forfeiture Threshold (as defined below), then the Unitholder shall automatically forfeit and have no further right, title or interest in, all of the

 

2


Unitholder’s Units. The Unitholder shall take all actions as may be reasonably necessary to consummate any forfeiture contemplated by this Section 1(e), including entering into agreements and delivering certificates and instruments and consents as may be deemed by the Company to be necessary or appropriate (which shall not require the Unitholder to make any representations other than as to its clear title to the applicable Units and its power and authorization to effect the transactions contemplated by the applicable agreement or other instrument), and the Unitholder hereby grants to the Company and any representative designated by the Company without further action by the Unitholder a limited irrevocable power of attorney to effect any forfeiture contemplated hereby on behalf of the Unitholder, which power of attorney shall be deemed to be coupled with an interest.

(ii) If on either (A) the date of the vote by the SPAC’s stockholders to approve the Business Combination or (B) the Business Day immediately prior to the closing of the Business Combination (each, a “Determination Date”), the Unitholder or its Affiliate beneficially owns or holds, directly or indirectly, including through any firm commitments to purchase, after giving effect to any redemptions of Common Stock in connection with the Business Combination, a number of Public Shares (the “Determination Date Shares”) that is less than the Forfeiture Threshold (as defined below), then the Unitholder shall, at the Company’s sole discretion, forfeit and have no further right, title or interest in, a pro rata number of the Class C Common Units held by the Unitholder, the pro rata number being calculated as a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of Shortfall Shares (as defined below) and the denominator is the Forfeiture Threshold, provided that the Unitholder shall not be obligated to forfeit a number of Class C Common Units under this Section 1(e)(ii) to the extent that the remaining number of Class C Common Units held by the Unitholder after such forfeiture would be less than 37,500. The Unitholder shall take all actions as may be reasonably necessary to consummate any forfeiture contemplated by this Section 1(e), including entering into agreements and delivering certificates and instruments and consents as may be deemed by the Company to be necessary or appropriate (which shall not require the Unitholder to make any representations other than as to its clear title to the applicable Class C Common Units and its power and authorization to effect the transactions contemplated by the applicable agreement or other instrument), and the Unitholder hereby grants to the Company and any representative designated by the Company, without further action by the Unitholder a limited irrevocable power of attorney to effect any forfeiture contemplated hereby on behalf of the Unitholder, which power of attorney shall be deemed to be coupled with an interest.

(iii) As used herein, (A) the “Forfeiture Threshold” shall initially mean 1,498,500 Public Shares minus the number of shares of Class A Common Stock purchased by the Unitholder in a private placement contemporaneously with the consummation of the Business Combination; provided, that (1) if the aggregate number of Public Shares that are redeemed

 

3


by the holders thereof in connection with the Business Combination is less than or equal to the Forfeiture Trigger Amount, the Forfeiture Threshold shall be deemed to mean zero (0) Public Shares; and (2) if the aggregate number of Public Shares that are redeemed by the holders thereof in connection with the Business Combination is greater than the Forfeiture Trigger Amount, the Forfeiture Threshold shall equal: (I) the aggregate number of Public Shares that are redeemed by the holders thereof in connection with the Business Combination in excess of the Forfeiture Trigger Amount minus (II) the number of shares of Class A Common Stock purchased by the Unitholder in a private placement contemporaneously with the consummation of the Business Combination; provided that in no event will the Forfeiture Threshold exceed 1,498,500 Public Shares, (B) the “Shortfall Shares” shall mean the amount by which the Forfeiture Threshold exceeds the Determination Date Shares; and (C) the “Forfeiture Trigger Amount” shall mean a number of Public Shares equal to two percent (2%) of the Public Shares entitled to vote on the Business Combination.

(iv) Solely by way of example to illustrate the provisions of Section 1(e)(i), if the Forfeiture Threshold is 1,498,500 and on a Determination Date the Unitholder or its Affiliate beneficially owns 1,000,000 Public Shares (meaning that the number of Determination Date Shares is 1,000,000), then the Shortfall Shares shall be 498,500, and the percentage of the Class C Common Units that the Unitholder would forfeit would be 33.27% (e.g., 498,500 divided by 1,498,500).

(v) The Unitholder agrees that if, prior to a Business Combination, the Company’s managers deem it necessary in order to facilitate a Business Combination by the SPAC for the Company to forfeit, transfer, exchange or amend the terms of all or any portion of the Founder Shares or to enter into any other arrangements with respect to the Founder Shares (including, without limitation, a transfer of the Company’s membership interests representing an interest in any of the foregoing) to facilitate the consummation of such Business Combination, including voting in favor of any amendment to the terms of the Founder Shares (each, a “Change in Investment”), such Change in Investment shall apply pro rata to the Class C Common Units held by Unitholder. By way of example and without limiting the foregoing, in the event 50% of the Company’s Founder Shares are forfeited or transferred by the Company as part of such Business Combination, the Unitholder shall forfeit 50% of its Class C Common Units. Notwithstanding the remaining provisions of this Section 1(e)(v), the Unitholder shall not be required to forfeit its Class C Common Units to the extent (and only to the extent) that such forfeiture would reduce the number of Class C Common Units held by it below 50% of the number of Class C Common Units issued prior to the IPO (the “Retained Units”). None of the terms and provisions in a Change in Investment shall apply to, adversely affect or restrict the transfer of, the Class C Common Units retained by the Unitholder pursuant to Section 1(e)(ii) or this Section 1(e)(v), including, without limitation, the Retained Units. For the avoidance of doubt, the Unitholder shall not be required to forfeit, transfer, exchange or amend the terms of any Class D Common Units in connection with a Change in Investment.

Such Unitholder’s execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other documents referred to hereto to which it is a party, its consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby and its compliance with the provisions hereof and thereof will not (i) violate any provision of any law applicable to such Unitholder or any of its properties or assets or (ii) conflict with or result in any breach of any of the terms, conditions or provisions of, or constitute (with due notice or lapse of time, or both) a default under such Unitholder’s governance documents.

(c) Authority. Such Unitholder has all requisite power and authority to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under this Agreement and the other documents referred to hereto to which it is a party. This Agreement and the other documents referred to hereto to which such Unitholder is a party have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by such Unitholder.

(e) Investment Intent. Such Unitholder is acquiring the Units for such Unitholder’s own account as principal and not in a fiduciary capacity, for investment purposes only, not for any other person and not for the purposes of resale or distribution. Such Unitholder understands that the offering and sale of the Units are intended to be exempt from registration under U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and applicable U.S. state securities laws, and agrees that any Units acquired by such Unitholder may not be sold, offered for sale, exchanged, transferred, assigned, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of (x) in any manner that would require the Company to register the Units under the Securities Act, under any U.S. state securities laws or under the laws of any non-U.S. jurisdiction or (y) otherwise except in accordance with the restrictions set forth in the LLC Agreement.

(f) Financial Status. Such Unitholder is an “accredited investor” as such term is defined in Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act. Such Unitholder is able to bear the economic risk of an investment in the Units for an indefinite period of time, has adequate means of providing for its current financial needs and business contingencies, has no need for liquidity in the investment in the Units, understands that it may not be able to liquidate its investment in the Company in an emergency, if at all, and can afford a complete loss of the investment.

(g) Foreign Investors. If the Unitholder is not a United States person (as defined by Section 7701(a)(30) of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986), the Unitholder hereby represents that it has satisfied itself as to the full observance of the laws of its jurisdiction in connection with any invitation to subscribe for the Units or any use of this Agreement, including (i) the legal requirements within its jurisdiction for the purchase of the Units, (ii) any foreign exchange restrictions applicable to such purchase, (iii) any governmental or other consents that may need to be obtained, and (iv) the income tax and other tax consequences, if any, that may be relevant to the purchase, holding, sale, or transfer of the Units. The Unitholder’s subscription and payment for and continued beneficial ownership of the Units will not violate any applicable securities or other laws of the Unitholder’s jurisdiction.

(h) Independent Investigation; Non-Reliance. Such Unitholder understands the risks of a purchase of equity interests in the Company. Such Unitholder was offered the Units through private negotiations, not through any general solicitation or general advertising. In considering its participation, such Unitholder has conducted its own investigations and assessment, under the advice of its own counsel, and has not relied upon any representations (including, without limitation, any advertisement, article, notice or other communication published in any newspaper, magazine, website or similar media or broadcast over television or radio, and any seminars or meetings whose attendees have been invited by any general solicitation or advertising) made by, or other information (whether oral or written) furnished by or on behalf of, the Company or any partner, member, manager, director, officer, employee or agent of the Company, other than as set forth in this Agreement.

(i) Due Diligence. Such Unitholder has been given the opportunity to ask questions of, and receive answers from, the Company and its personnel relating to the Company, concerning the terms and conditions of the investment in the Company, and has had access to such financial and other information concerning the Company as it has considered necessary to verify the accuracy of any information provided and to make a decision to invest in the Company, and has availed itself of this opportunity to the full extent desired.

For purposes of this Agreement, “Rule 506(d) Related Party” shall mean a Person that is a beneficial owner (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any pension scheme beneficiary in a UK pension scheme by virtue of being a participant in such scheme) of such Unitholder’s securities for purposes of Rule 506(d) of the Securities Act.

As of the date of this Agreement, (i) such Unitholder is and at all times during the last five years has been in compliance with all United States federal, state and local laws and regulations and the laws and regulations of any foreign jurisdiction relating to the prevention of money laundering applicable to it or its property or in respect of its business and operations, including all applicable financial record-keeping, know-your-customer and reporting requirements of the Currency and Foreign Transactions Reporting Act of 1970, as amended from time to time, including by the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001 (the “USA PATRIOT Act” and all such laws and regulations, the “Money Laundering Laws”), and (ii) the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are not being conducted by the Unitholder in connection with any violation of the Money Laundering Laws and will not cause the Unitholder to be in violation of any Money Laundering Laws.
