Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings given such terms in the Merger Agreement (as defined below).
BACKGROUND
A. Purchaser, RSVAC Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Purchaser and Enovix Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), entered into a Merger Agreement dated as of February 22, 2021 (the “Merger Agreement”).
B. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Purchaser will become the 100% stockholder of the Company (the “Transaction”).
C. The Holder is the record and/or beneficial owner of certain shares of Company Capital Stock, which will be exchanged for shares of Parent Common Stock pursuant to the Merger Agreement.
D. As a condition of, and as a material inducement for Purchaser to enter into and consummate the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the Holder has agreed to execute and deliver this Agreement.
NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements set forth herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:
AGREEMENT
1. Lock-Up.
(a) During the Lock-up Period (as defined below), the Holder irrevocably agrees that it, he or she will not offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, any of the Lock-up Shares (as defined below), enter into a transaction that would have the same effect, or enter into any swap, hedge or other arrangement that transfers, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of such Lock-up Shares, whether any of these transactions are to be settled by delivery of any such Lock-up Shares, in cash or otherwise, publicly disclose the intention to make any offer, sale, pledge or disposition, or to enter into any transaction, swap, hedge or other arrangement, or engage in any Short Sales (as defined below) with respect to any security of Purchaser (these actions, collectively, “Transfer”).
(b) In furtherance of the foregoing, Purchaser will (i) place an irrevocable stop order on all Lock-up Shares, including those which may be covered by a registration statement, and (ii) notify Purchaser’s transfer agent in writing of the stop order and the restrictions on such Lock-up Shares under this Agreement and direct Purchaser’s transfer agent not to process any attempts by the Holder to resell or transfer any Lock-up Shares, except in compliance with this Agreement.
(c) For purposes hereof, “Short Sales” include, without limitation, all “short sales” as defined in Rule 200 promulgated under Regulation SHO under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and all types of direct and indirect stock pledges, forward sale contracts, options, puts, calls, swaps and similar arrangements (including on a total return basis), and sales and other transactions through non-US broker dealers or foreign regulated brokers.
(d) For purpose of this Agreement, the “Lock-up Period” means (i) with respect to the Second Release Lock-up Shares as specified on the signature page hereto, the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending on the date that is ninety (90) days thereafter; and (ii) with respect to the Final Release Lock-up Shares as specified on the signature page hereto, the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending on the date that is one hundred eighty (180) days thereafter. For the avoidance of doubt, the restrictions set forth herein shall not apply to the First Release Lock-up Shares as specified on the signature page hereto.
In addition, the restrictions set forth herein shall not apply to:
(1) Transfers or distributions to the Holder’s current or former general or limited partners, managers or members, stockholders, other equityholders or direct or indirect affiliates (within the meaning of Rule 405 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended), or to any investment fund or other entity controlling, controlled by, managing or managed by or under common control with the undersigned or affiliates of the undersigned or who shares a common investment advisor with the undersigned, or to the estates of any of the foregoing;
(2) Transfers by bona fide gift to a member of the Holder’s immediate family or to a trust, the beneficiary of which is the Holder or a member of the Holder’s immediate family, an affiliate of such person or to a charitable organization;
(3) by virtue of the laws of descent and distribution upon death of the Holder;
(4) by operation of law or pursuant to a court order, such as a qualified domestic relations order, divorce decree or separation agreement;
(5) Transfers to a partnership, limited liability company or other entity of which the Holder and/or the Holder’s immediate family are the legal and beneficial owner of all of the outstanding equity securities or similar interests;
(6) in the case of an entity that is a trust, Transfers to a trustor or beneficiary of the trust or to the estate of a beneficiary of such trust;
(7) in the case of an entity, Transfers by virtue of the laws of the state of the entity’s organization and the entity’s organizational documents upon dissolution of the entity;
(8) Transfers of any shares of Parent Common Stock or other securities acquired as part of the PIPE Financing or issued in exchange for, or on conversion or exercise of, any securities issued as part of the PIPE Financing;
(9) Transfers relating to Parent Common Stock or other securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Parent Common Stock acquired in open market transactions after the Closing Date, provided that no such transaction is required to be, or is, publicly announced (whether on Form 4, Form 5 or otherwise, other than a required filing on Schedule 13F, 13G or 13G/A) during the Lock-up Period;
(10) the exercise of stock options or warrants to purchase shares of Parent Common Stock or the vesting of stock awards of Parent Common Stock and any related transfer of shares of Parent Common Stock in connection therewith (x) deemed to occur upon the “cashless” or “net” exercise of such options or warrants or (y) for the purpose of paying the exercise price of such options or warrants or for paying taxes due as a result of the exercise of such options or warrants, the vesting of such options, warrants or stock awards, or as a result of the vesting of such shares of Parent Common Stock, it being understood that all shares of Parent Common Stock received upon such exercise, vesting or transfer will remain subject to the restrictions of this Agreement during the Lock-up Period;
(11) Transfers to Purchaser pursuant to any contractual arrangement in effect at the effective time of the Merger that provides for the repurchase by Purchaser or forfeiture of Parent Common Stock or other securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Parent Common Stock in connection with the termination of the Holder’s service to Purchaser;
(12) the entry, by the Holder, at any time after the effective time of the Merger, of any trading plan providing for the sale of shares of Parent Common Stock by the Holder, which trading plan meets the requirements of Rule 10b5-1(c) under the Exchange Act, provided, however, that such plan does not provide for, or permit, the sale of any shares of Parent Common Stock during the Lock-up Period and no public announcement or filing is voluntarily made or required regarding such plan during the Lock-up Period; and
(13) Transfers to satisfy any U.S. federal, state, or local income tax obligations of the Holder (or its direct or indirect owners) arising from a change in the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), or the U.S. Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Regulations”) after the date on which the Merger Agreement was executed by the parties, and such change prevents the Merger from qualifying as a “reorganization” pursuant to Section 368 of the Code (and the Merger does not qualify for similar tax-free treatment pursuant to any successor or other provision of the Code or Regulations taking into account such changes), in each case solely and to the extent necessary to cover any tax liability as a direct result of the transaction;
in the case of clauses (1) through (7) where such transferee agrees to be bound by the terms of this Agreement.
In addition, after the Closing Date, if there is a Change of Control, then upon the consummation of such Change of Control, all Lock-up Shares shall be released from the restrictions contained herein. A “Change of Control” means: (a) the sale of all or substantially all of the consolidated assets of Purchaser and Purchaser subsidiaries to a third-party purchaser; (b) a sale resulting in no less than a majority of the voting power of the Purchaser being held by person that did not own a majority of the voting power prior to such sale; or (c) a merger, consolidation, recapitalization or reorganization of Purchaser with or into a third-party purchaser that results in the inability of the pre-transaction equity holders to designate or elect a majority of the Board of Directors (or its equivalent) of the resulting entity or its parent company.
2. Representations and Warranties.
