Certain capitalized terms used herein are defined in paragraph 7 hereof. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed to such terms in the Merger Agreement.
The Sponsor and certain Insiders are currently, and as of the Closing will be, the record owners of all of the outstanding Founder Shares and outstanding Acquiror Private Placement Warrants, with the Sponsor and Insider’s ownership as of the date hereof detailed on Schedule A hereto.
In order to induce the Company, SPAC Entities, and Blocker Companies to enter into the Merger Agreement and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Sponsor and each Insider hereby agrees with SPAC Entities and, at all times prior to any valid termination of the Merger Agreement, the Company as follows:
1. | The Sponsor and each Insider irrevocably agrees that it, he or she shall: |
(a) | vote any ordinary shares owned by it, him or her (all such ordinary shares, the “Covered Shares”) in favor of the Merger and each other proposal related to the Merger included on the agenda for the special meeting of stockholders relating to the Merger; |
(b) | when such meeting of stockholders is held, appear at such meeting or otherwise cause the Covered Shares to be counted as present thereat for the purpose of establishing a quorum; |
(c) | vote (or execute and return an action by written consent), or cause to be voted at such meeting (or validly execute and return and cause such consent to be granted with respect to), all of such Covered Shares against any Business Combination Proposal and any other action, in each case, that would reasonably be expected to impede, interfere with, delay, postpone or adversely affect the Merger or any of the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, result in a breach of any covenant, representation or warranty or other obligation or agreement of the SPAC Entities under the Merger Agreement, result in any of the conditions set forth in Article X of the Merger Agreement not being fulfilled, result in a breach of any covenant, representation or warranty or other obligation or agreement of the Sponsor or the Insiders contained in this Sponsor Agreement or change in any manner the dividend policy or capitalization of, including the voting rights of, any class of capital stock of SPAC; |
(d) | vote (or execute and return an action by written consent), or cause to be voted at such meeting (or validly execute and return and cause such consent to be granted with respect to), all of such Covered Shares against any change in business, management or board of directors of SPAC (other than in connection with the Merger and the other proposals related to the Merger); |
(e) | not redeem any Covered Shares owned by it, him or her in connection with such stockholder approval; and |
(f) | execute and return an action by written resolution approving the board of directors of Acquiror at Closing in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement. |
Prior to any valid termination of the Merger Agreement, the Sponsor and each Insider shall take, or cause to be taken, all actions and shall do, or cause to be done, all things reasonably necessary under applicable Laws to consummate the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein.
The obligations of the Sponsor specified in this paragraph 1 shall apply whether or not the Merger or any action described above is recommended by the board of directors of SPAC or whether the board of directors of SPAC has effected a SPAC Change in Recommendation.
2. | The Sponsor and each Insider hereby agrees and acknowledges that: (a) SPAC and, prior to any valid termination of the Merger Agreement in accordance with its terms, the Company may be irreparably injured in the event of a breach by the Sponsor or any Insider of its, his or her obligations under paragraphs 1 and 3, as applicable, of this Sponsor Agreement (b) monetary damages may not be an adequate remedy for such breach and (c) the non-breaching party shall be entitled to injunctive relief, in addition to any other remedy that such party may have in law or in equity, in the event of such breach. |
3. | (a) | The Sponsor and each Insider agrees that it, he or she shall not Transfer any Founder Shares (or any shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon conversion thereof) until the earlier of (A) one hundred eighty (180) days after the completion of the Merger and (B) subsequent to the Merger, the date on which SPAC completes a liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction that results in all of SPAC’s stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of Class A Common Stock for cash, securities or other property (the “Founder Shares Lock-up Period”). |
(b) | The Sponsor and each Insider agrees that it, he or she shall not Transfer any Acquiror Private Placement Warrants (or any Class A ordinary shares issued or issuable upon the exercise of the Acquiror Private Placement Warrants), until the earlier of (A) one hundred eighty (180) days after the completion of the Merger and (B) subsequent to the Merger, the date on which SPAC completes a liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction that results in all of SPAC’s stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of Class A Common Stock for cash, securities or other property (the “Private Placement Warrants Lock-up Period” and, together with the Founder Shares Lock-up Period, the “Lock-up Periods”). |
2
(c) | Notwithstanding the provisions set forth in paragraphs 3(a) and 3(b), Transfers of the Founder Shares, Acquiror Private Placement Warrants and Class A Common Stock issued or issuable upon the exercise or conversion of the Founder Shares and the Acquiror Private Placement Warrants, in each case, that are held by the Sponsor, any Insider or any of their permitted transferees (that have complied with this paragraph 3(c)), are permitted (i) to SPAC’s officers or directors, any affiliate or family member of any of SPAC’s officers or directors or any affiliate of the Sponsor or to any member(s) of the Sponsor or any of their affiliates; (ii) in the case of an individual, by gift to a member of such individual’s immediate family or to a trust, the beneficiary of which is a member of such individual’s immediate family, an affiliate of such individual or to a charitable organization; (iii) in the case of an individual, by virtue of laws of descent and distribution upon death of such individual; (iv) in the case of an individual, pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order; (v) by private transfers or transfers made in connection with any contingent forward purchase agreement or similar arrangement or in connection with the consummation of the Merger at prices no greater than the price at which the shares or warrants were originally purchased; (vi) in the case of the Sponsor, by virtue of the laws of the State of Delaware or the Sponsor’s limited liability company agreement upon dissolution of the Sponsor, (vii) in the event of SPAC’s completion of a liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange or other similar transaction that results in all of SPAC’s stockholders having the right to exchange their Class A Common Stock for cash, securities or other property subsequent to the completion of the Merger; provided, however, that in the case of clauses (i) through (vi), these permitted transferees must enter into a written agreement with SPAC agreeing to be bound by the transfer restrictions herein and the other restrictions contained in this Sponsor Agreement (including, but not limited to, the provisions herein relating to voting, the Trust Account and liquidating distributions). |
(d) | Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in paragraphs 3(a), 3(b) and 3(c) if either (i) any waiver, release, termination, shortening or other amendment or modification to the Lockup Agreement, dated as of the date hereof among SPAC and certain stockholders of the Company (the “Lockup Agreement”) occurs which improves the terms of the lock-up of any shares of Common Stock held by such stockholders immediately following the Closing, or (ii) the Company waives, releases, terminates, shortens, or otherwise amends or modifies the restrictions in the Lockup Agreement as to any such Company stockholder (each of the events in (i) or (ii), a “Release”), then the Release shall apply pro rata and on the same terms to the lock-up on the Founder Shares and the provisions of this Section 3 shall be deemed immediately and automatically waived, released, terminated, shortened, amended or modified, as the case may be, without further action of the parties. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of this Section 3 shall not be deemed waived, released, terminated, shortened, amended or modified if any such waiver, release, termination, shortening, amendment or modification would further obligate or is otherwise adverse to the holders of Founder Shares; provided, however, that in any such circumstances the holders of Founder Shares shall be granted equal opportunity to participate in such Release on equal terms to the parties thereto prior to the effectiveness thereof. Prior to any such amendment to the Lockup Agreement and this Agreement, the Company will provide reasonable advance written notice (in no case less than five (5) Trading Days) to any holder of Founder Shares indicating that the Company plans to take a specified action with respect to the Lockup Agreement and this Agreement and setting forth the terms of any such amendment. |
4. | The Sponsor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally (i) agrees that pursuant to Article 37 of the SPAC’s Amended & Restated Memorandum of Association (the “Articles”), all of the Founder Shares outstanding as of the date hereof (whether or not held by the Sponsor), shall convert into shares of Class A Common Stock on a one-for-one basis and (ii) waives any adjustment to the Conversion Ratio (as defined in the Articles) to which it would otherwise be entitled pursuant to Article 37.4 of the Articles that would result from the issuance of any equity or equity-linked securities pursuant to the Subscription Agreements, the Merger or otherwise in connection with the Closing. |
5. | The Sponsor and each Insider has full right and power, without violating any agreement to which it is bound (including, without limitation, any non-competition or non-solicitation agreement with any employer or former employer), to enter into this Sponsor Agreement. |
