ARTICLE I

SPONSOR SUPPORT AGREEMENT; COVENANTS

Each Sponsor shall be bound by and comply with Sections 6.4 (Public Announcements) and 6.6 (Exclusive Dealing) of the Business Combination Agreement (and any relevant definitions contained in any


such Sections) as if such Sponsor was an original signatory to the Business Combination Agreement with respect to such provisions and each reference to THMA in such provision referred to each Sponsor.

Section 1.2    No Transfer. During the period commencing on the date hereof and ending on the earlier of (a) the Effective Time and (b) such date and time as the Business Combination Agreement shall be terminated in accordance with Section 8.1 thereof (the earlier of clauses (a) and (b) herein, the “Expiration Time”), each Sponsor shall not (i) sell, offer to sell, contract or agree to sell, hypothecate, pledge, grant any option to purchase or otherwise dispose of or agree to dispose of, directly or indirectly, file (or participate in the filing of) a registration statement with the SEC (other than the Registration Statement / Proxy Statement) or establish or increase a put equivalent position or liquidate or decrease a call equivalent position within the meaning of Section 16 of the Exchange Act, with respect to any THMA Shares or THMA Warrants owned by such Sponsor, (ii) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of any shares of THMA Shares or THMA Warrants owned by such Sponsor (clauses (i) and (ii) collectively, a “Transfer”) or (iii) publicly announce any intention to effect any transaction specified in clause (i) or (ii); provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prohibit Transfers between such Sponsor and any Affiliate of such Sponsor or Transfers among Sponsors and their respective Affiliates, so long as, prior to and as a condition to the effectiveness of any such Transfer to an Affiliate, such Affiliate executes and delivers to THMA a joinder to this Sponsor Agreement in the form attached hereto as Annex A.

Section 1.3    New Shares. In the event that (a) any THMA Shares, THMA Warrants or other equity securities of THMA are issued to a Sponsor after the date of this Sponsor Agreement pursuant to any stock dividend, stock split, recapitalization, reclassification, combination or exchange of THMA Shares or THMA Warrants of, on or affecting the THMA Shares or THMA Warrants owned by such Sponsor or otherwise, (b) a Sponsor purchases or otherwise acquires beneficial ownership of any THMA Shares, THMA Warrants or other equity securities of THMA after the date of this Sponsor Agreement, or (c) a Sponsor acquires the right to vote or share in the voting of any THMA Shares or other equity securities of THMA after the date of this Sponsor Agreement (such THMA Shares, THMA Warrants or other equity securities of THMA, collectively the “New Securities”), then such New Securities acquired or purchased by such Sponsor shall be subject to the terms of this Sponsor Agreement to the same extent as if they constituted the THMA Shares or THMA Warrants owned by such Sponsor as of the date hereof.

Section 1.4    Closing Date Deliverables. On the Closing Date, each of the Sponsors that holds any THMA Shares or THMA Warrants as of the Closing Date shall deliver to THMA and the Company a duly executed copy of that certain Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement, by and among THMA, the Company, such Sponsors and certain of the Company’s stockholders or their respective Affiliates, as applicable, in substantially the form attached as Exhibit B to the Business Combination Agreement.

-2-


other circumstance in which the vote, consent or other approval of the shareholders of THMA is sought (regardless of whether there has been a Change of Recommendation), each Sponsor shall (a) appear at each such meeting or otherwise cause all of its THMA Shares to be counted as present thereat for purposes of calculating a quorum and (b) vote (or cause to be voted), in person or by proxy, or execute and deliver a written consent (or cause a written consent to be executed and delivered) covering, all of its THMA Shares (i) in favor of each Transaction Proposal, (ii) against any proposal relating to a THMA Acquisition Proposal and (iii) against any proposal, action or agreement that would impede, frustrate, prevent or nullify the consummation of the Merger (including those proposals that would result in a breach in any respect of any covenant, representation, warranty or other obligation or agreement of THMA or Merger Sub under the Business Combination Agreement) and the other transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement.

(b)    Each Sponsor shall not redeem any THMA Shares owned by such Sponsor in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement.

Section 1.6    Irrevocable Proxy. Subject to the last sentence of this Section 1.6, and solely in the event of a failure by a Sponsor to act in accordance with such Sponsor’s obligations as to voting all of its THMA Shares pursuant to Section 1.5 hereof prior to the termination of this provision pursuant to Section 4.1, and such Sponsor fails to vote (or cause to be voted), in person or by proxy, or execute and deliver a written consent (or cause a written consent to be executed and delivered) covering, all of its THMA Shares for a period of three days after such request, such Sponsor hereby grants a proxy appointing THMA as such Sponsor’s attorney-in-fact and proxy, with full power of substitution, for and in such Sponsor’s name, to vote, express consent or dissent, or otherwise to utilize such voting power with respect to any matter referenced in Section 1.5. This proxy and power of attorney is given by each Sponsor in connection with, and in consideration of, the execution of the Business Combination Agreement by the Company and to secure the performance of the duties of such Sponsor under this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, this irrevocable proxy shall automatically terminate upon the termination of this Sponsor Agreement.

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, THMA, which will file a name change and appoint directors pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement in connection with the Closing (as of the Closing, the “Corporation”), on behalf of itself and its Subsidiaries, renounces any interest or expectancy of the Corporation and its Subsidiaries in, or in being offered an opportunity to participate in, any business opportunities that are from time to time presented to the Sponsor Holdco or any of its Affiliates or any of its or their agents, shareholders, members, partners, directors, officers, employees, Affiliates or Subsidiaries (other than the Corporation and its Subsidiaries), including any director, board observer or officer of the Corporation who is also an agent, shareholder, member, partner, director, officer, employee, Affiliate or Subsidiary of the Sponsor Holdco (each, a “Business Opportunities Exempt Party”), even if the business opportunity is one that the Corporation or its Subsidiaries might reasonably be deemed to have pursued or had the ability or desire to pursue if granted the opportunity to do so, and no Business Opportunities Exempt Party shall have any duty to communicate or offer any such business opportunity to the Corporation or be liable to the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries or any stockholder, including for breach of any fiduciary or other duty, as a director, board observer or officer or controlling stockholder or otherwise, and the Corporation shall indemnify each Business Opportunities Exempt Party against any claim that such Person is liable to the Corporation or its stockholders for breach of any fiduciary duty, by reason of the fact that such Person (i) participates in, pursues or acquires any such business opportunity, (ii) directs any such business opportunity to another Person or (iii) fails to present any such business opportunity, or information regarding any such business opportunity, to the Corporation or its Subsidiaries, unless, in the case of a Person who is a director or officer of the Corporation, such business opportunity is expressly offered to such director or officer in writing solely in his or her capacity as a director or officer of the Corporation.

Section 1.8    Further Assurances.

ARTICLE II

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

Section 2.1    Representations and Warranties of the Sponsors. Each Sponsor represents and warrants as of the date hereof to THMA and the Company (solely with respect to itself, himself or herself and not with respect to any other Sponsor) as follows:

(a)    Organization; Due Authorization. If such Sponsor is not an individual, it is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the Laws of the jurisdiction in which it is incorporated, formed, organized or constituted, and the execution, delivery and performance of this Sponsor Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby are within such Sponsor’s corporate, limited liability company or organizational powers and have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate, limited liability company or organizational actions on the part of such Sponsor. If such Sponsor is an individual, such Sponsor has full legal capacity, right and authority to execute and deliver this Sponsor Agreement and to perform his or her obligations hereunder. This Sponsor Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by such Sponsor and, assuming due authorization, execution and delivery by the other parties to this Sponsor Agreement, this Sponsor Agreement constitutes a legally valid and binding obligation of such Sponsor, enforceable against such Sponsor in accordance with the terms hereof (subject to the Bankruptcy and Equity Exception). If this Sponsor Agreement is being executed in a representative or fiduciary capacity, the Person signing this Sponsor Agreement has full power and authority to enter into this Sponsor Agreement on behalf of the applicable Sponsor.

(b)    Ownership. Such Sponsor is the record and beneficial owner (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act) of, and has good title to, all of such Sponsor’s THMA Shares and THMA Warrants, and there exist no Liens or any other limitation or restriction (including any restriction on the right to vote, sell or otherwise dispose of such THMA Shares or THMA Warrants (other than transfer restrictions under the Securities Act)) affecting any such THMA Shares or THMA Warrants, other than Liens pursuant to (i) this Sponsor Agreement, (ii) the Governing Documents of THMA, (iii) the Business Combination Agreement, (iv) the Sponsor Letter Agreement, (v) the Subscription Agreement or (vi) any applicable securities Laws. Such Sponsor’s THMA Shares and THMA Warrants are the only equity securities in THMA owned of record or beneficially by such Sponsor on the date of this Sponsor Agreement, and none of such Sponsor’s THMA Shares or THMA Warrants are subject to any proxy, voting trust or other agreement or arrangement with respect to the voting of such THMA Shares or THMA Warrants, except as provided hereunder and under the Sponsor Letter Agreement. Other than the THMA Warrants, such Sponsor does not hold or own any rights to acquire (directly or indirectly) any equity securities of THMA or any equity securities convertible into, or which can be exchanged for, equity securities of THMA.

(c)    No Conflicts. The execution and delivery of this Sponsor Agreement by such Sponsor does not, and the performance by such Sponsor of his, her or its obligations hereunder will not, (i) if such Sponsor is not an individual, conflict with or result in a violation of the organizational documents of such Sponsor or (ii) require any consent or approval that has not been given or other action that has not been taken by any Person (including under any Contract binding upon such Sponsor or such Sponsor’s THMA Shares or THMA Warrants), in each case, to the extent such consent, approval or other action would prevent, enjoin or materially delay the performance by such Sponsor of its, his or her obligations under this Sponsor Agreement.

 

-5-


(d)    Litigation. There is no Proceeding pending against such Sponsor, or to the knowledge of such Sponsor, threatened in writing against such Sponsor, before (or, in the case of threatened Proceedings, that would be before) any arbitrator or any Governmental Entity, which in any manner challenges or seeks to prevent, enjoin or materially delay the performance by such Sponsor of its, his or her obligations under this Sponsor Agreement.

(e)    Brokerage Fees. Except as described on Section 5.4 of the THMA Disclosure Schedules, no broker, finder, investment banker or other Person is entitled to any brokerage fee, finders’ fee or other commission in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement based upon arrangements made by such Sponsor, for which THMA or any of its Affiliates may become liable.

(f)    Affiliate Arrangements. Except as set forth on Schedule II attached hereto, neither such Sponsor nor any family member of such Sponsor or, to the knowledge of such Sponsor, any Person in which such Sponsor has a direct or indirect legal, contractual or beneficial ownership of 5% or greater is party to, or has any rights with respect to or arising from, any Contract with THMA or its Subsidiaries.

(g)    Acknowledgment. Such Sponsor understands and acknowledges that each of THMA and the Company is entering into the Business Combination Agreement in reliance upon such Sponsor’s execution and delivery of this Sponsor Agreement.

(h)    No Other Representations or Warranties. Except for the representations and warranties made by the Sponsors in this Article II, no Sponsor nor any other Person makes any express or implied representation or warranty to THMA or the Company in connection with this Sponsor Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Sponsor Agreement, and each Sponsor expressly disclaims any such other representations or warranties.
