(ii) if VIH provides written notice (including via email) to the Target Company that VIH (x) has not consummated an initial business combination and (y) has determined to redeem its public shares and liquidate or dissolve thereafter (and does not withdraw such determination) (such liquidation, a “VIH Liquidation”), the Target Company shall issue and deliver to VIH, a penny warrant (the “Warrant”), which shall contain customary protections for the warrantholder and otherwise reflect terms mutually agreeable to the Target Company and VIH to be negotiated in good faith, to purchase a number of Target Company Ordinary Shares equal to three and one-half percent (3.5%) of the Fully Diluted Share Number as of the date of this Agreement (as adjusted to take into account any stock split, stock dividend or similar event effected with respect to the Target Company Ordinary Shares on or after the date hereof and on or prior to the date of the Warrant is exercised); provided that, for sake of clarity, such adjustments shall not be duplicative of any adjustments pursuant to the provisions of the Warrant (the “Equity Termination Fee”); provided, further that the Warrant (and any shares of Target Company Ordinary Shares issuable upon the exercise thereof) shall be non-transferable (subject to limited exceptions contained therein) and shall be issued solely to VIH within five (5) Business Days following and conditional upon both of the following to occur: (i) the dissolution of the Trust Account and (ii) the distribution of the cash proceeds held therein to holders of Class A ordinary shares of a par value of $0.0001 of VIH in accordance with the amended and restated memorandum and articles of association of VIH. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event that VIH does not effect a VIH Liquidation or instead consummates a business combination with another entity, the Target Company shall no longer be obligated to issue a Warrant to VIH pursuant to this Section 3.1(a)(ii) and the Warrant (if issued) shall be deemed cancelled; provided, further that upon entry into a business combination agreement the Warrant shall be deemed non-exercisable and upon consummation of the business combination, shall be deemed cancelled.

(b) If, prior to the VIH Liquidation, the Target Company consummates any transaction that would be deemed a Sale of the Company (as defined below) in accordance with Section 3.1(c), the Target Company shall (i) provide VIH with at least five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice of the anticipated consummation of such Sale of the Company, and shall provide VIH with all reasonably requested information related thereto, and (ii) include as an express provision of such transaction the counterparty’s agreement to issue the Warrant to VIH in accordance with Section 3.1(a)(ii), subject to the limitations contained therein.

3


Interests constituting at least a majority of the fully diluted shares of the Target Company or the Target Company’s Equity Interests that represent at least a majority of the voting power or economic right of all of the Target Company’s Equity Interests, or any other transaction or series of related transactions of any kind or nature that results in a single party (or group of affiliated parties), acquiring or holding Equity Interests of the Target Company representing a majority of the outstanding voting power or economic right of the Target Company, or (z) any combination of the transactions in the foregoing clauses (w) through (y).

(c) Prior to March 5, 2023, unless VIH has otherwise consummated a business combination on or prior to such date, the Target Company shall not consummate (x) an initial public offering (“IPO”) of its Equity Securities or (y) any merger, consolidation or other business combination directly or indirectly involving a SPAC in which the Target Company is directly or indirectly a constituent party (“SPAC Transaction”), without the prior written consent of VIH. Subject to the preceding sentence, if (i) the Target Company consummates (A) an IPO of its Target Company Ordinary Shares pursuant to a registration statement on any recognizable international stock exchange, including the Singapore Exchange, Nasdaq or New York Stock Exchange or (B) a SPAC Transaction, and (ii) VIH has not yet completed the VIH Liquidation by the time of consummation of such IPO or SPAC Transaction, then the Target Company, at its sole discretion, shall thereafter have the option to pay cash to VIH, in lieu of issuing the Warrant, in an amount equal to the fair market value of the Warrant on the date that such transaction is consummated.

Section 3.2. Default Rate; Fees of Counsel.

(a) If the Target Company fails to pay the Termination Reimbursement Amount in accordance with Section 3.1(a)(i), a default interest of five percent (5%) per annum shall accrue on a daily basis from the date the Termination Reimbursement Amount was due and payable pursuant to Section 3.1(a)(i) until all such unpaid amounts have been paid in full (such interest, the “Default Interest”).

(b) The Target Company shall bear, and pay or cause to be paid in full, within ten (10) calendar days of a written demand by VIH (or its liquidating trust) or VIH Sponsor, all fees, costs and expenses incurred by or on behalf of VIH (or its liquidating trust) or VIH Sponsor (as applicable) in enforcing and collecting the Termination Reimbursement Amount and/or the Equity Termination Fee, as applicable (including any Default Interest payable under Section 3.2(a)) due and unpaid (or unissued, as applicable), in breach of the terms of this Agreement, including, without limitation, all fees, costs and expenses of any counsel retained by VIH (or its liquidating trust) or VIH Sponsor (as applicable) for advice, suit, appeal, insolvency or other proceedings related to enforcement of such breach.
