Section 1(a)(iv) shall be amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
“(iv) If the Purchaser transfers its obligation to consummate the Forward Purchase to one or more of the Forward Transferees pursuant to Section 4(c), then at the Forward Closing, if agreed by each Forward Transferee and TPG Pace Beneficial Finance Sponsor, Series LLC, the Company may also issue to one or more of the Forward Transferees, on a private placement basis, upon payment of the Forward Purchase Price, an additional number of Class A Shares, for no cash consideration, equal to one-tenth of the number of Forward Purchase Shares purchased by such Forward Transferee (the “Additional Shares” and, together with the Forward Purchase Securities and the Forward Transferee Securities (as defined below), the “Securities”).”
