(a) The Stockholders acknowledge and agree that, (i) by virtue of this Article II, they are acting as a “group” within the meaning of the Stock Exchange rules as of the date hereof, and (ii) by virtue of the Combined Voting Power of Common Stock held by the Stockholders, the Issuer shall qualify as a “controlled company” within the meaning of Stock Exchange rules as of the Closing Date.

(b) So long as the Issuer qualifies as a “controlled company” for purposes of Stock Exchange rules, the Issuer may elect to be a “controlled company” for purposes of Stock Exchange rules, and will disclose in its annual meeting proxy statement that it is a “controlled company” and the basis for that determination. If the Issuer ceases to qualify as a “controlled company” for purposes of Stock Exchange rules, the Stockholders and the Issuer will take whatever action may be reasonably necessary in relation to such party, if any, to cause the Issuer to comply with Stock Exchange rules as then in effect within the timeframe for compliance available under such rules.

Article III
POST-BUSINESS COMBINATION TRANSFERS

Section 3.1 Liquidity Events; Notices.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement or the Registration Rights Agreement, no Stockholder other than the Sponsor Investors may initiate a Liquidity Event prior to the expiration of the Transfer Restriction Period. There will be no limits on the number of Liquidity Events that any Sponsor Investor may initiate during the Transfer Restriction Period, subject to compliance with the other provisions of this Article III. The restrictions set forth in this Section 3.1(a) shall not limit the ability of any Stockholder to engage in an Excluded Transfer in accordance with Section 3.8 of this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, no Stockholder may effect any Transfer during the Transfer Restriction Period other than Excluded Transfers and Transfers made in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Article III.

(b) Notwithstanding any terms applicable to, or obligations of, the Stockholders under the Registration Rights Agreement, until the expiration of the Transfer Restriction Period, any Sponsor Investor that proposes to initiate a Liquidity Event will, prior to initiating such Liquidity Event, deliver a written notice (a “Notice”) to each other Stockholder setting forth the expected material terms, conditions and details of the Liquidity Event (including the method of Transfer, the number of Shares, the proposed trade date and, in the case of a proposed Rule 144 Transfer, the Rule 144 Cap), as applicable. Any Sponsor Investor that delivers a Notice with respect to a proposed Liquidity Event is herein referred to as an “Initiating Investor” with respect to such Liquidity Event.

Section 3.2 Registration Rights.

(a) Following the delivery of a Notice pursuant to Section 3.1(b) regarding an exercise of registration rights under the Registration Rights Agreement (which, for the avoidance of doubt, include demand registration, company registration and shelf takedown request rights, including any “block trades”), the rights of the Stockholders to participate in any registered offering shall be governed by the terms of such Registration Rights Agreement; provided, that, each Stockholder’s pro rata participation as calculated pursuant to the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement shall not include any Shares purchased by such Stockholder on the open market following the Business Combination; and provided further, that the Stockholders shall have the right to participate in any Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering conducted prior to the expiration of the Transfer Restriction Period in accordance with paragraph (b) of this Section 3.2. Any Notice delivered pursuant to Section 3.1(b) regarding the exercise of registration rights under the Registration Rights Agreement shall be made prior to or concurrent with a notice to the Issuer under the Registration Rights Agreement.

(b) Following the receipt of a Notice pursuant to Section 3.1(b) regarding an exercise of registration rights with respect to a proposed Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering, each Stockholder shall have the right to participate in such Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering by delivering written notice to the Initiating Investor within three (3) Business Days. The failure by any Stockholder to deliver any such written notice to the Initiating Investor within such period shall be deemed to be an election by such Stockholder not to exercise its participation rights under this Section 3.2(b) with respect to such Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering, as the case may be.

Section 3.3 Private Placements. If the Liquidity Event proposed to be initiated by a Sponsor Investor involves a Transfer of Shares other than a sale or distribution pursuant to Section 3.2 above or Section 3.4 or Section 3.5 below, then such Sponsor Investor shall deliver the Notice described in Section 3.1(b) with respect to such proposed Transfer at least five (5) Business Days prior to the proposed Transfer date set forth in such Notice. Following receipt of such Notice from the Initiating Investor, each other Stockholder shall have the right to participate in the proposed Transfer by delivering written notice to the Initiating Investor within three (3) Business Days. The failure by any Stockholder to deliver any such written notice to the Initiating Investor within such period shall be deemed to be an election by such Stockholder not to exercise its participation rights under this Section 3.3 with respect to such contemplated Transfer. Subject to the exercise of such right to participate by any other Stockholder under this Section 3.3, the Initiating Investor shall thereafter be free to sell the number of Shares identified in the Notice in the manner and on terms and conditions no more favorable to such Initiating Investor than contemplated in the respective Notice. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, any Transfer effected pursuant to this Section 3.3 may be effected prior to the proposed Transfer date set forth in the Notice, provided that (i) each Stockholder that has elected to participate in such Transfer agrees to such earlier date, and (ii) each other Stockholder has waived its right to participate in such Transfer prior to such earlier date (either by providing written notice to that effect to the Initiating Investor or by failing to respond to the Notice within the time period specified above). If a Stockholder elects to participate in such Transfer, such participating Stockholder shall be entitled to participate in such Transfer on a pro rata basis based on such Stockholder’s proportionate ownership of all of the Shares held by all Stockholders participating in such Transfer. For the avoidance of doubt, the determination of each Stockholder’s pro rata participation shall not include any Shares purchased by such Stockholder on the open market following the Business Combination.

Section 3.4 Coordination of Rule 144 Sales. If the Liquidity Event proposed to be initiated by a Sponsor Investor involves a sale pursuant to Rule 144 (each, a “Rule 144 Transfer”), then such Sponsor Investor shall deliver the Notice described in Section 3.1(b) with respect to such proposed Rule 144 Transfer at least five (5) Business Days prior to the proposed Transfer date set forth in such Notice. Each other Stockholder shall have the right to participate in a Rule 144 Transfer by delivering written notice to the Initiating Investor within two (2) Business Days following receipt of such Notice. The failure by any Stockholder to deliver any such written notice of participation within such period shall be deemed to be an election by such Stockholder not to exercise its participation rights under this Section 3.4 with respect to such contemplated Rule 144 Transfer. Subject to the exercise of such right to participate by any other Stockholder under this Section 3.4, the Initiating Investor shall thereafter be free to sell the number of Shares identified in the Notice in the manner and on the general terms and conditions contemplated in the respective Notice, provided that the number of Shares that may be sold by the Initiating Investor and any other Stockholder that elects to participate in the proposed Rule 144 Transfer will be subject to the limitations set forth in Section 3.6 of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, any Rule 144 Transfer effected pursuant to this Section 3.4 may be effected prior to the proposed Transfer date set forth in the Notice, provided that (i) each Stockholder that has elected to participate in such Rule 144 Transfer agrees to such earlier date, and (ii) each other Stockholder has waived its right to participate in such Rule 144 Transfer prior to such earlier date (either by providing written notice to that effect to the Initiating Investor or by failing to respond to the Notice within the time period specified above). All Stockholders electing to transfer Shares for value in a Rule 144 Transfer agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to coordinate the timing and process for transferring their Shares, including, but not limited to, selling through a single broker to be mutually agreed among such Stockholders.

Section 3.5 Partner Distributions. If the Liquidity Event proposed to be initiated by a Sponsor Investor involves a partner distribution or similar redemption of equity interests (any such distribution or redemption, a “Distribution”), then such Sponsor Investor shall deliver the Notice described in Section 3.1(b) with respect to such proposed Distribution at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the proposed Distribution date set forth in such Notice. Each other Stockholder shall have the right to conduct a substantially concurrent Distribution by delivering written notice to the Initiating Investor within five (5) Business Days of receipt of such Notice. The failure by any Stockholder to deliver any such written notice within such period shall be deemed to be an election by such Stockholder not to exercise its participation rights under this Section 3.5 with respect to such contemplated Distribution. Subject to the exercise of such right to participate by any other Stockholder under this Section 3.5, the Initiating Investor shall thereafter be free to distribute the Shares identified in the Notice in the manner and on the general terms and conditions contemplated in such Notice, including the proposed timing of such Distribution. The Issuer agrees to reasonably coordinate with the Stockholders and any other stockholders of the Issuer as requested by any Stockholder in connection with the structuring of any Distribution by such Stockholder. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, any Distribution effected pursuant to this Section 3.5 may be effected prior to the proposed Distribution date set forth in the Notice, provided that (i) each Stockholder that has elected to participate in such Distribution agrees to such earlier date, and (ii) each other Stockholder has waived its right to participate in such Distribution prior to such earlier date (either by providing written notice to that effect to the Initiating Investor or by failing to respond to the Notice within the time period specified above). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, this Section 3.5 will not apply to Distributions of the type described in Section 3.8(d) hereof.

Section 3.6 Transfer Limit. The number of Shares that may be Transferred by the Stockholders, in the aggregate, pursuant to any Rule 144 Transfer pursuant to Section 3.4 of this Agreement shall be limited to the Rule 144 Cap, and the number of Shares that may be Transferred by any Stockholder pursuant to such Rule 144 Transfer shall be limited to such Stockholder’s Rule 144 Pro Rata Portion. Following its receipt of a Notice regarding a proposed Rule 144 Transfer, any Stockholder electing not to participate in such Rule 144 Transfer may, by providing written notice to the Initiating Investor in the same manner and within the same time period specified in Section 3.4 for responding to such Notice, elect to make all or any portion of its Rule 144 Pro Rata Portion available to the other Stockholders in connection with such Rule 144 Transfer. In such case, the maximum number of Shares that may be Transferred pursuant to the applicable Rule 144 Transfer by the Initiating Investor and each other Stockholder electing to participate therein will be deemed to have automatically increased, on a pro rata basis, up to the number of Shares specified in the notice delivered by the non-participating Stockholder pursuant to the foregoing sentence.

Section 3.7 Other Restrictions on Transfer. The restrictions on Transfer contained in this Agreement are in addition to any other restrictions on Transfer to which a Stockholder may be subject, including, without limitation, the restrictions contained in the Sponsor Letter Agreement, the Bylaws of the Issuer and the OpCo LLC Agreement, and any restrictions on Transfer contained in any equity incentive plan, restricted stock agreement, stock option agreement, stock subscription agreement or other agreement to which such Stockholder is a party or instrument by which such Stockholder is bound.

Section 3.8 Excluded Transfers. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the restrictions set forth in this Article III, shall not apply to the following (each, an “Excluded Transfer”):

(a) Transfers of Shares by a Stockholder to another corporation, partnership, limited liability company or other business entity that is an Affiliate of such transferring Stockholder, or to any investment fund or other entity controlled or managed by such Stockholder or Affiliates of such Stockholder, provided that any Distributions shall be subject to the provisions of Section 3.5 and Section 3.8(d), as applicable, hereof.

(b) Transfers of Shares pursuant to a bona fide third-party tender offer, merger, consolidation or other similar transaction that is approved by the Board involving the Transfer (whether by tender offer, merger, consolidation or other similar transaction), in one transaction or a series of related transactions, to a person or group of affiliated persons (as defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act), of shares of capital stock if, after such Transfer, such person or group of affiliated persons would Beneficially Own (as defined in Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 under the Exchange Act) at least a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Issuer (or the surviving entity).

(c) Transfers of Shares pursuant to (i) the pledging, hypothecating or granting a security interest in, lien on, or otherwise encumbering by a Stockholder of such Stockholder’s Shares as security in respect of any bona fide financing arrangements, which financing arrangements (including the terms thereof) are approved by the Board in its sole discretion (each, a “Permitted Loan” and, the Shares pledged thereunder, the “Permitted Pledged Shares”) at any time, (ii) the transferring of such Permitted Pledged Shares by a Stockholder to satisfy or avoid a bona fide margin call pursuant to a Permitted Loan, and (iii) the exercise by any lender (or its affiliate) of its ability to foreclose upon and sell, dispose of or otherwise transfer any Permitted Pledged Shares.

(d) Distributions to certain current and/or former officers, employees or partners of the general partner, managing member or other controlling entity of, or investment advisor to, any Stockholder and/or its Affiliates which are made in conjunction with a Transfer by such Stockholder pursuant to Section 3.2, 3.3 or 3.4, provided that (i) unless otherwise consented to by the other Stockholders participating in the applicable Transfer, the aggregate number of Shares Distributed to all such officers, employees and partners pursuant to this clause (d) in conjunction with a particular Transfer shall not exceed 10% of the number of Shares being Transferred by the applicable Stockholder and its Affiliates in such Transfer, and (ii) the aggregate number of Shares Distributed pursuant to this clause (d) shall be counted as Transferred by the distributing Stockholder in the accompanying Transfer pursuant to Section 3.2, 3.3 or 3.4 for purposes of calculating such Stockholder’s pro rata portion.

(e) Transfers of Shares by a Stockholder in connection with the Business Combination.

(f) The sale of Shares by a Stockholder pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act in an amount that, when taken together with the aggregate number of Shares sold by such Stockholder pursuant to an effective registration statement during the preceding 90-day period, does not exceed 4.0 million Shares (as adjusted for any stock split, stock dividend or combination, or any reclassification, recapitalization, merger, consolidation or similar transaction after the date of this Agreement).

Section 3.9 Lock-Up Restrictions. Each Stockholder hereby acknowledges and agrees that, notwithstanding Section 6.6 of the Registration Rights Agreement, in connection with any underwritten public offering of securities of the Company conducted prior to the expiration of the Transfer Restriction Period regarding which a Notice is required to be delivered pursuant to Section 3.1(b) of this Agreement, other than a Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering, such Stockholder will be subject to the same lock-up restrictions to which the Initiating Investor agrees to be subject in connection with such offering, unless such Initiating Investor otherwise approves.

Section 3.10 Termination of Article III. The restrictions set forth in this Article III shall be of no further effect with respect to the Shares held by any Stockholder as of the completion of the Transfer Restriction Period.

Article IV

Section 6.8 Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their heirs, executors, administrators, successors, legal representatives and permitted assigns.

Section 6.9 Waiver. No failure by any party to insist upon the strict performance of any covenant, duty, agreement or condition of this Agreement or to exercise any right or remedy consequent upon a breach thereof shall constitute a waiver of any such breach or any other covenant, duty, agreement or condition.

Section 6.10 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in separate counterparts, each of which will be an original and all of which together shall constitute one and the same agreement binding on all the parties hereto.

Section 6.11 Applicable Law; Waiver of Jury Trial. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law rules or provisions (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware. The parties hereto agree that any suit, action or proceeding seeking to enforce any provision of, or based on any matter arising out of or in connection with, this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby (whether brought by any party or any of its Affiliates or against any party or any of its Affiliates) shall be brought in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (or in the event, but only in the event, that such court does not have subject matter jurisdiction over such action or proceeding, the Superior Court of the State of Delaware (Complex Commercial Division) or, if subject matter jurisdiction over the action or proceeding is vested exclusively in the federal courts of the United States of America, the United States District Court for the District of Delaware) and each of the parties hereby irrevocably consents to the jurisdiction of such courts (and of the appropriate appellate courts therefrom) in any such suit, action or proceeding and irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding in any such court or that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. Process in any such suit, action or proceeding may be served on any party anywhere in the world, whether within or without the jurisdiction of any such court. THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVE ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

Section 6.12 Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement will be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable law or rule in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability will not affect any other provision or the effectiveness or validity of any provision in any other jurisdiction, and this Agreement will be reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein.

Section 6.13 Delivery by Facsimile. This Agreement and any signed agreement or instrument entered into in connection with this Agreement or contemplated hereby, and any amendments hereto or thereto, to the extent signed and delivered by means of a facsimile machine or electronic transmission (i.e., in portable document format), shall be treated in all manner and respects as an original agreement or instrument and shall be considered to have the same binding legal effect as if it were the original signed version thereof delivered in person. At the request of any party hereto or to any such agreement or instrument, each other party hereto or thereto shall re-execute original forms thereof and deliver them to all other parties. No party hereto or to any such agreement or instrument shall raise the use of a facsimile machine or electronic transmission to deliver a signature or the fact that any signature or agreement or instrument was transmitted or communicated through the use of a facsimile machine or electronic transmission as a defense to the formation of a contract and each such party forever waives any such defense.

Section 6.14 Entire Agreement. For so long as this Agreement remains in effect, none of the Company or any Stockholder shall enter into any shareholder agreement or arrangement of any kind with any Person with respect to any Shares or other securities, or otherwise act or agree to act in concert with any Person with respect to any Shares or other securities, to the extent such agreement, arrangement, or concerted act would controvert or otherwise be inconsistent, in any material respect, with the provisions of this Agreement. This Agreement, together with the Registration Rights Agreement, and all of the other exhibits, annexes and schedules hereto and thereto constitute the entire understanding and agreement between the parties as to restrictions on the transferability of Shares and the other matters covered herein and therein and supersede and replace any prior understanding, agreement between the parties as to restrictions on the transferability of Shares and the other matters covered herein and therein and supersede and replace any prior understanding, agreement or statement of intent, in each case, written or oral, of any and every nature with respect thereto. In the event of any inconsistency between this Agreement and any agreement executed or delivered to effect the purposes of this Agreement, this Agreement shall govern as among the parties hereto.

Section 6.15 Remedies. The Issuer and the Stockholders shall be entitled to enforce their rights under this Agreement specifically, to recover damages by reason of any breach of any provision of this Agreement (including, without limitation, costs of enforcement) and to exercise all other rights existing in their favor. The parties hereto agree and acknowledge that money damages may not be an adequate remedy for any breach of the provisions of this Agreement, and that the Issuer or any Stockholder may in its sole discretion apply to any court of law or equity of competent jurisdiction for specific performance or injunctive relief (without posting a bond or other security) in order to enforce or prevent any violation of the provisions of this Agreement. All remedies, either under this Agreement or by Law or otherwise afforded to any party, shall be cumulative and not alternative. All obligations hereunder shall be satisfied in full without set-off, defense or counterclaim.

Exhibit A
FORM OF JOINDER TO STOCKHOLDERS’ AGREEMENT

This Joinder Agreement (this “Joinder Agreement”) is made as of the date written below by the undersigned (the “Joining Party”) in accordance with the Stockholders’ Agreement dated as of [___________,] 2021 (the “Stockholders’ Agreement”) among Vacasa, Inc. and certain other persons named therein, as the same may be amended from time to time.
