(b) For the avoidance of doubt, except as explicitly set forth in this Section 2.1, nothing in this Agreement shall limit the right of the Shareholders to vote in favor of, against or abstain with respect to any other matters presented to the shareholders of TKB. Nothing in this Agreement shall obligate the Shareholders to exercise any option or any other right to acquire any TKB Shares.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Proxy shall be effective for all actions by written consent of the shareholders of TKB during the Voting Period with respect to the matters set forth in Section 2.1(a).

 

(b) It is hereby agreed that the Authorized Parties will use any Proxy and Power of Attorney granted by such Shareholder in accordance with applicable Law in all material respects and will only vote the Subject Securities subject to such Proxy of Attorney with respect to the matters and in the manner specified in Section 2.1(a). Subject to the foregoing sentence, following the grant of the Proxy of Attorney pursuant to Section 2.2(a), the vote of an Authorized Party shall control in any conflict between the vote by an Authorized Party of such Subject Securities and any other vote by such Shareholder of its Subject Securities during the Voting Period and such Shareholder hereby ratifies and confirms all that the Authorized Persons shall do or cause to be done by virtue hereof.

This Agreement is intended to take effect as deed for the purposes of the laws of the Cayman Islands even if the parties may only execute under hand. Any Proxy and Power of Attorney granted hereunder shall automatically terminate, and any underlying appointment shall automatically be revoked and rescinded and of no force and effect, upon the termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms.

(f) Each Shareholder shall take further action or execute such other instruments as may be necessary to effectuate the intent of the Proxy and Power of Attorney.

The waiver specified in this Section 2.3 shall be applicable only in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement and this Agreement (and any shares of TKB Class A Shares or equity-linked securities issued in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement and this Agreement) and shall be void and of no force and effect if the Business Combination Agreement shall be terminated for any reason.

 

Section 2.4 Sponsor Forfeiture. Immediately prior to, and subject to the Closing, Sponsor shall irrevocably forfeit and surrender for no consideration and without any further action of any party up to an aggregate amount equal to 1,725,000 TKB Class B Shares and 3,225,000 TKB Private Warrants, which shall be inclusive of any TKB Class B Shares and TKB Private Warrants that Sponsor has agreed to forfeit in favor of the Forward Purchasers pursuant to those certain subscription agreements executed between Sponsor and the Forward Purchasers prior to the date hereof (the “Sponsor Inducement Securities”), as Sponsor may determine in its sole discretion, in order to secure (a) the financing commitments referred to in Section 5.19 of the Business Combination Agreement and (b) private investments in public equity of TKB; provided that with respect to any Sponsor Inducement Securities that are not forfeited by Sponsor at or prior to the Closing, Sponsor shall irrevocably forfeit and surrender for no consideration and without any further action of any party for the benefit of Wejo an aggregate amount equal to 50% of such non-forfeited Sponsor Inducement Securities effective immediately upon Closing.

The word “extent” in the phrase “to the extent” shall mean the degree to which a subject or other thing extends, and such phrase shall not mean simply “if”. The word “will” shall be construed to have the same meaning and effect as the word “shall”. The definitions contained in this Agreement are applicable to the singular as well as the plural forms of such terms and to the masculine as well as to the feminine and neuter genders of such term. References to a Person are also to its permitted assigns and successors. The parties hereto have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement and, in the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as jointly drafted by the parties hereto and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party hereto by virtue of the authorship of any provision of this Agreement. Whenever the last day for the exercise of any right or the discharge of any duty under this Agreement falls on a day other than a business day, the party having such right or duty shall have until the next business day to exercise such right or discharge such duty.

 

Section 7.11 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the Laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to principles or rules of conflict of Laws to the extent such principles or rules would require or permit the application of Laws of another jurisdiction.

 

Section 7.12 Specific Performance; Submission to Jurisdiction.

 

(a) The parties hereto agree that irreparable injury, for which monetary damages (even if available) would not be an adequate remedy, will occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement are not performed in accordance with their specific terms or are otherwise breached. Accordingly, it is agreed that each party hereto shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent or remedy any breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement by any other party, a decree or order of specific performance specifically enforcing the terms and provisions of this Agreement and any further equitable relief, this being in addition to any other remedy to which such party is entitled under the terms of this Agreement, at Law or in equity. The parties’ rights in this Section 7.12 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated hereby and each party hereby waives any objections to any remedy referred to in this Section 7.12 (including any objection on the basis that there is an adequate remedy at Law or that an award of such remedy is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at Law or equity). For avoidance of doubt, each party agrees that there is not an adequate remedy at Law for a breach of this Agreement by any party. In the event any party seeks any remedy referred to in this Section 7.12, such party shall not be required to obtain, furnish, post or provide any bond or other security in connection with or as a condition to obtaining any such remedy.

Each of the parties agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by applicable Law. Each party irrevocably consents to service of process inside or outside the territorial jurisdiction of the courts referred to in this Section 7.12 in the manner provided for notices in Section 7.5. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party to serve process in any other manner permitted by applicable Law.

EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THE ACTIONS OF WEJO OR ANY SHAREHOLDER IN THE NEGOTIATION, ADMINISTRATION, PERFORMANCE AND ENFORCEMENT OF THIS AGREEMENT.
