Parent, Merger Sub, and the Investors are collectively referred to as the “Parties” and each, a “Party.” Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings given to them in the Merger Agreement (as defined below).

BACKGROUND

1. On the date hereof and contemporaneously with the execution of this Agreement, Parent, Merger Sub, and Astra Space Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) have executed an Agreement and Plan of Merger (as amended, supplemented or modified from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof and in compliance with this Agreement, the “Merger Agreement”) pursuant to which, among other things, Merger Sub will be merged with and into the Company with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation (the “Merger”).

2. On or prior to the date hereof, each of the Investors has executed and delivered to Parent an equity commitment letter agreement pursuant to which the applicable Investor has agreed, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, to make or cause to be made a capital contribution to Parent at Closing in the amount or value set forth in each such equity commitment letter agreement (each, an “Equity Commitment Letter,” references to which include such letter agreement as amended, supplemented or modified from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof and this Agreement, and collectively, the “Equity Commitment Letters”). In this Agreement, “Equity Commitment” refers to, (x) prior to the consummation of the Closing and for each Investor, the “Commitment” set forth in its respective Equity Commitment Letter, as such amount may be modified or amended in accordance with the terms thereof and of this Agreement and (y) at the Closing, for purposes of Section 2.2 and for each Investor, the amount or value contributed to Parent by such Investor at Closing in accordance with this Agreement and its Equity Commitment Letter. The Equity Commitment Letters executed and delivered by certain of the Investors have also been executed by certain of their respective Affiliates such that such Investors and such respective Affiliates are jointly and severally obligated, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, to make the applicable Equity Commitment.

3. On or prior to the date hereof, the Founders, the Key Investors, and certain other Investors have executed and delivered to Parent the Warrant Exchange Agreement, pursuant to which the applicable Investor has agreed, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, to exchange all Company Warrants (as defined below) held thereby for warrants to purchase Parent Series A Preferred Shares (the “Parent Warrants”) in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.

4. On or prior to the date hereof, the Founders, the Key Investors, and certain other Investors have executed and delivered to Parent the Noteholder Conversion Agreement, pursuant to which the applicable Investor has agreed, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, to effectuate the conversion and cancellation of the Notes (as defined below) held thereby in exchange for the issuance of Parent Series A Preferred Shares (as defined below) thereto in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.

5. This Agreement governs the relationship of the Parties pending the Closing, including in respect of the Merger Agreement, the Equity Commitment Letters, the Warrant Exchange Agreement, and the Noteholder Conversion Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby and, in the case of any inconsistency between this Agreement, on the one hand, and the Merger Agreement, any Equity Commitment Letter, the Warrant Exchange Agreement, or the Noteholder Conversion Agreement, on the other hand, this Agreement shall control solely as among the Parties (but, for the avoidance of doubt, not with respect to the Founders in their capacities as directors or officers of the Company).

6. The Parties wish to agree to certain terms and conditions that will govern the actions of the Parties and the relationship among the Investors with respect to the Merger Agreement, the Equity Commitment Letters, the Warrant Exchange Agreement, and the Noteholder Conversion Agreement, and the transactions contemplated thereby.

ARTICLE I

EQUITY COMMITMENTS; CONTRIBUTION

Section 1.1 Initial Commitments. Parent represents that (a) Schedule A includes a true and complete copy of all of the Equity Commitment Letters that the Investors have executed and delivered to Parent as of the date hereof, (b) Schedule B includes a true and complete copy of the Warrant Exchange Agreement as of the date hereof, and (c) Schedule C includes a true and complete copy of the Noteholder Conversion Agreement as of the date hereof.

Section 1.2 Equity Commitments.

(a) Parent shall be entitled to enforce, and shall enforce, the obligation of each Investor to fund its Equity Commitment under its Equity Commitment Letter in accordance with the terms of such Equity Commitment Letter, only (i) acting at the direction of the Founders, and with Key Investor Consent (as defined below), if the Founders jointly have, acting reasonably and in good faith, determined that (x) all conditions to effect the Closing set forth in Sections 6.01 and 6.02 of the Merger Agreement (the “Closing Conditions”) have been and are continuing to be satisfied (other than any conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but each of which are capable of being satisfied at the Closing), except for any conditions that have been waived by Parent and Merger Sub with Key Investor Consent, (y) all conditions to funding under such Equity Commitment Letter have been and are continuing to be satisfied (other than any

conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but each of which are capable of being satisfied at the Closing), except for any conditions that have been waived by the applicable Investor, and (z) the Closing is required to occur pursuant to Section 1.06 of the Merger Agreement, or (ii) as required by an order for specific performance issued by a court of competent jurisdiction in accordance with the Company’s third party beneficiary rights pursuant to such Equity Commitment Letter to cause Parent to enforce such Equity Commitment Letter in accordance with, and subject to the conditions of, such Equity Commitment Letter. For the avoidance of doubt, the Investors shall have no right to directly enforce (including seeking specific performance of) any Equity Commitment Letter against another Investor. If the Founders determine that it is appropriate to reduce the aggregate Equity Commitment (including, without limitation, in the event the Merger Consideration is reduced or as a result of any Rollover Agreement entered into after the date hereof and prior to the Closing), then Parent may, with Key Investor Consent, reduce the Equity Commitment required to be funded by one or more Investors under their respective Equity Commitment Letter upon written notice to such Investors prior to Closing.

(b) Subject to the terms and conditions of the Equity Commitment Letter, each Investor may assign, sell-down or syndicate all or any part of its Equity Commitment to any of its Affiliates, including one or more affiliated investment funds or investment vehicles that are advised or sponsored by the investment manager of the relevant Investor, without any consent of any of the other Investors (a “Permitted Syndication”); provided that any such Permitted Syndication does not require any additional Consent, filing, registration, or declaration in order to consummate the Transactions. Any Permitted Syndication shall not relieve the Investor of its obligations under its Equity Commitment Letter in the event that any such Affiliate fails to perform such obligations. Other than a Permitted Syndication, any assignment, sell-down or syndication of all or part of the Equity Commitments will be subject to receipt of (x) the Key Investor Consent and (y) the prior written consent of either of the Founders (clauses (x) and (y), collectively, “Investor Consent”).

(c) The following matters shall be subject to the prior written consent of a majority in interest (measured by the aggregate amount of all such Capital Commitments) of the Key Investors (“Key Investor Consent”): (x) any agreement by Parent, Merger Sub or an Investor to amend, modify or waive an Equity Commitment Letter, the Warrant Exchange Agreement, or the Noteholder Conversion Agreement, (y) any agreement by Parent, Merger Sub to terminate an Equity Commitment Letter, the Warrant Exchange Agreement, or the Noteholder Conversion Agreement, or (z) any entrance by Parent into a Rollover Agreement.

Each of the Founders represents and warrants that Parent is wholly-owned by the Founders and further covenants that no additional equity interests or capital stock of Parent shall be issued or issuable prior to the Closing without Investor Consent other than pursuant to the Equity Commitment Letters, the Warrant Exchange Agreement, and the Noteholder Conversion Agreement. Prior to the Closing, the Founders shall not, without Investor Consent, sell, dispose or otherwise transfer, directly or indirectly, any equity interests of Parent. Each of the Founders represents and warrants that Parent (i) is a newly formed entity, (ii) has conducted no operations and prior to the Closing shall not conduct any operations and (iii) has no, and prior to the Closing shall not have any, assets, obligations or liabilities of any nature, in each case of clause (ii) and (iii), other than those incident to its formation and in connection with the Merger Agreement, this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby.

In the case of any sale, disposition or transfer whereby Investor Consent is obtained, the transferee of such equity securities or debt securities of the Company pursuant to such sale, disposition, or transfer shall agree in writing to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement as though such transferee were an Investor hereunder; provided that no such sale, disposition, or transfer shall relieve any transferring Investor from its obligations hereunder.

(a) Immediately prior to, but contingent upon and subject to the consummation of, the Closing, Parent shall issue a number of Series A preferred shares, par value US$0.0001 per share, of Parent (the “Parent Series A Preferred Shares”) to each Investor (other than the Founders) in exchange for their respective capital contributions to Parent based on the following calculation: (i) for a contribution of cash by, or on behalf of, such Investor (a “Cash Contribution”), such Investor shall receive a number of Parent Series A Preferred Shares equal to such cash contribution divided by the Merger Consideration; (ii) for a contribution of class A common shares of the Company (the “Company Class A Shares”) held by such Investor or its Affiliates as of immediately prior to the Closing (a “Company Class A Shares Contribution”), such Investor shall receive an equal number of Parent Series A Preferred Shares; (iii) for the conversion and cancellation of the Notes held by such Investor or its Affiliates as of immediately prior to the Closing (an “Indebtedness Contribution”), such Investor shall receive a number of Parent Series A Preferred Shares in accordance with Section 3.7(b); and (iv) for the contribution and exchange of Company Warrants held by such Investor or its Affiliates as of immediately prior to the Closing (a “Warrant Contribution”), such Investor shall receive Parent Warrants (as defined below) in accordance with Section 3.7(a). All issuances of Parent Series A Preferred Shares pursuant to the foregoing shall be made in accordance with the terms, and subject to the conditions, set forth in the Merger Agreement and such Investor’s Equity Commitment Letter, the Warrant Exchange Agreement, and the Noteholder Conversion Agreement, as applicable.

(b) Immediately prior to, but contingent upon and subject to the consummation of, the Closing, Parent shall issue class B common shares, par value US$0.0001 per share, of Parent (the “Parent Class B Common Shares”) to each Founder in exchange for their respective capital contributions to Parent (in accordance with the terms, and subject to the conditions, set forth in this Agreement and such Founder’s Equity Commitment Letter) to the extent such capital contributions are satisfied by a Company Class A Shares Contribution or a contribution of class B common shares of the Company (the “Company Class B Shares”) held by such Founder or its Affiliates as of immediately prior to the Closing (a “Company Class B Shares Contribution”). The number of Parent Class B Common Shares issued to a Founder in exchange for a Company Class A Shares Contribution or Company Class B Shares Contribution shall be equal to the number of Company Class A Shares or Company Class B Shares so contributed. Parent shall issue Parent Series A Preferred Shares to each Founder in exchange for their respective capital contributions to Parent to the extent such capital contributions are satisfied by (i) a Cash Contribution, (ii) an Indebtedness Contribution, (iii) a Warrant Contribution, or (iv) a combination of two or more of the foregoing, in each case calculated based on the method set forth in Section 2.2(a). All issuances of Parent Series A Preferred Shares pursuant to the foregoing shall be made in accordance with the terms, and subject to the conditions, set forth in the Merger Agreement and in such Founder’s Equity Commitment Letter, the Warrant Exchange Agreement, and the Noteholder Conversion Agreement, as applicable. The Company Class A Shares and Company Class B Shares contributed to Parent by the Investors or their respective Affiliates shall be referred to as the “Rollover Shares”.

(c) For purposes of determining the amount of Investor’s “Capital Commitment” under this Agreement, (i) the amount of cash contributed pursuant to the Cash Contribution shall be ascribed a value equal to such amount, (ii) each Company Class A Share or Company Class B Share contributed pursuant to the Company Class A Shares Contribution or Company Class B Shares Contribution, as applicable, shall be ascribed a value equal to the Merger Consideration, (iii) the indebtedness that is converted and cancelled pursuant to the Indebtedness Contribution shall be ascribed a value equal to the product of (x) the number of Series A Preferred

Shares issuable on the conversion and cancellation of such indebtedness in accordance with Section 3.7(b) and (y) the Merger Consideration; and (iv) the Company Warrants being contributed pursuant to the Warrant Contribution shall be ascribed a value equal to the product of (x) the number of Series A Preferred Shares subject to the Parent Warrant to be issued pursuant to Section 3.7(a) and (y) the excess, if any, of the Merger Consideration over the exercise price per Series A Preferred Share under such Parent Warrant as of immediately after its issuance.

(d) For U.S. federal and applicable state and local income tax purposes, the Parties intend that any Parent capital stock (including, without limitation, Parent capital stock issued in exchange for Rollover Shares) issued pursuant to clause (a) hereof, pursuant to clause (b) hereof, or pursuant to any Rollover Agreement, taken together, qualify as tax-deferred transfers under Section 351(a) of the Code (the “Intended Tax Treatment”). Each Party shall cause all tax returns filed by such Party to be filed based on treating the transactions contemplated by this Agreement consistent with the Intended Tax Treatment, in each case, unless otherwise required by a “determination” (within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended) or comparable provisions of state or local income tax Law.

(e) At the Closing, Parent shall deliver a copy of the capitalization table of Parent to each Investor detailing (i) such Investor’s Capital Commitment, (ii) the total Capital Commitment of all Investors, (iii) the number of shares of each class of Parent capital stock held by such Investor, (iv) the total number of shares of each class of Parent capital stock issued and outstanding, and (v) the authorized number of shares of each class of Parent capital stock. For the avoidance of doubt, any capitalization table that is delivered to the Investors may be redacted by Parent or information therein may otherwise be aggregated to prevent disclosure of the name of individual Investors.

(a) Subject to Key Investor Consent in the circumstances required by Sections 1.2(c) and 3.1(b), the Founders, by mutual agreement and acting reasonably and in good faith, shall have the right to cause Parent or Merger Sub to take any action or refrain from taking any action that is (i) not in contravention of or inconsistent with this Agreement, the Merger Agreement, the Equity Commitment Letters, the Warrant Exchange Agreement, and the Noteholder Conversion Agreement and (ii) reasonably required in order for Parent or Merger Sub to comply with their respective obligations or exercise their respective rights under the Merger Agreement. Parent, Merger Sub and the Founders shall use their reasonable best efforts to keep the Key Investors informed about, and reasonably cooperate with the Key Investors in connection with, the matters contemplated by the Transaction Documents. Parent, Merger Sub and the Founders shall use reasonable best efforts to consult with the Key Investors with respect to, and keep them apprised of, all material decisions, elections, actions, determinations and other matters contemplated by the Transaction Documents. To the extent reasonably practicable, Parent, Merger Sub, and the Founders shall provide the Key Investors with drafts of material Transaction Documents and communications with the Company or third parties regarding the Transactions and shall provide the Key Investors and their respective advisors with an opportunity to review and comment on such Transaction Documents and communications.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, including Section 3.1(a), the Founders shall cause Parent and Merger Sub not to, and Parent and Merger Sub shall not, take any of the following actions without Key Investor Consent: (i) amend, modify, provide any consent under, or waive any provision of the Merger Agreement, the Equity Commitment Letters, the Warrant Exchange Agreement, the Noteholder Conversion Agreement, the Rollover Agreements or any other material Transaction Document (including extending the Initial Outside Date under the Merger Agreement), (ii) terminate the Merger Agreement, the Equity Commitment Letters, the Warrant Exchange Agreement, the Noteholder Conversion Agreement, the Rollover Agreements or any other material Transaction Document, (iii) enter into any material agreements relating to the Transactions that have not been approved by the Key Investors at the time of the execution of the Merger Agreement (other than additional equity commitment letters on terms and subject to conditions no more favorable to such equity investor than as set forth in the Equity Commitment Letters; provided that any such equity investors shall execute a joinder to this Agreement and be subject to the terms hereof as an “Investor” for all purposes), (iv) commence or settle any Proceeding relating to the Merger Agreement, the Equity Commitment Letters, the Warrant Exchange Agreement, the Noteholder Conversion Agreement, or the Rollover Agreements, (v) cause Parent or Merger Sub to take any action or conduct any business other than in furtherance of the Transaction or as otherwise contemplated by this Agreement, the Merger Agreement or the other Transaction Documents, (vi) take any action that would be in breach of or would violate the terms of this Agreement, the Merger Agreement or the other Transaction Documents, (vii) approve the Information Statement, or (viii) file the Schedule 13E-3 with the SEC. Parent shall promptly terminate the Merger Agreement pursuant to Section 7.01(b)(i) thereof (x) when entitled to do so unless Parent receives Key Investor Consent prior to such time and (y) if Parent receives Key Investor Consent not to so terminate the Merger Agreement pursuant to clause (x) above, upon receiving Key Investor Consent to terminate the Merger Agreement after such time.

(c) In the event that (i)(1) Parent enforces the obligations of the Investors to fund their Equity Commitments in accordance with Section 1.2 and (2) one or more Investors (or their respective Affiliates, as applicable) have fulfilled their Equity Commitments or stand ready, willing and able to fulfill their Equity Commitments (in such capacity, each a “Funding Investor” and collectively “Funding Investors”) then the Funding Investors, may with Key Investor Consent (with the majority in interest for such purposes measured without the Capital Commitment of any non-Funding Investor) terminate the participation in the transaction of any Investor that does not fund its Equity Commitment in its entirety or asserts in writing its unwillingness to fund all or any portion of its Equity Commitment when required to do so (any such Investor, a “Failure to Fund Investor”) or (ii) an Investor breaches its obligations under Section 3.3 or Section 3.4 hereto or under such Investor’s Equity Commitment Letter and, as a result, a closing condition set forth in the Merger Agreement fails to be satisfied or is not reasonably capable of being satisfied, then the Funding Investors may with Key Investor Consent (with the majority in interest for such purposes measured without the Capital Commitment of any breaching Investor) terminate the participation in the transaction of such breaching Investor (any such Investor, together with a Failure to Fund Investor, each, a “Failing Investor” and collectively, “Failing Investors” and such failure of such Failing Investor to fund or such assertion pursuant to clause (1) or breach pursuant to clause (2), a “Failing Investor Breach”). Following any Failing Investor Breach by a Failing Investor, any Investor that is a Funding Investor may fund at its sole discretion any unpaid amount of such Failing Investor’s portion of the Equity Commitment on the same terms as the contribution made pursuant to such Funding Investor’s Equity Commitment Letter.

(d) The termination of any Failing Investor’s participation in the transactions and the funding by a Funding Investor of the Failing Investor’s portion of the Equity Commitments in the manner set forth above shall not affect, alter or impair (i) the Funding Investors’ or non-breaching Investors’ rights against such Failing Investors for a breach by such Failing Investor of this Agreement (including Section 3.1, Section 3.2 and Section 5.3 hereof) or (ii) Parent’s rights or remedies under the Equity Commitment Letters with respect to the Failing Investor’s failure to fund or any other action or inaction.

(e) If an Investor becomes a Failing Investor, such Failing Investor shall no longer be entitled to any approval or consent rights under this Agreement, and any directors or officers of Parent or Merger Sub appointed by such Failing Investor, or representing such Failing Investor, shall be removed upon such Investor becoming a Failing Investor.

Section 3.2 Expenses.

(a) Each Party shall bear its own expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the Closing occurs, Parent shall cause the Company to bear the reasonable and documented out of pocket expenses of Parent, Merger Sub and the Founders incurred in connection with the negotiation, execution, delivery and performance of the Merger Agreement, the Equity Commitment Letters, the Debt Commitment Letter, the Warrant Exchange Agreement, the Noteholder Conversion Agreement, the Rollover Agreements, this Agreement, and any other Transaction Document, or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of counsel, accountants, consultants and other advisors retained thereby, but excluding, in each case, the funding of the Equity Commitments under the Equity Commitment Letters (“Transaction Expenses”).

(b) In the event of a termination of the Merger Agreement in which a Company Termination Fee or any other amount (either as an expense reimbursement, damages or otherwise) is paid to Parent or Merger Sub by the Company or its Affiliates, then Parent or Merger Sub, as the case may be, shall (i) first, discharge all of Parent’s and Merger Sub’s outstanding liabilities, (ii) second, pay (or cause to be paid) all Transaction Expenses incurred by the Founders, and (iii) third, pay (or cause to be paid) any remaining amount to the Investors in proportion to their Capital Commitments. In the event of a termination of the Merger Agreement in which no amount (either as expense reimbursement, damages or otherwise) is paid to Parent or Merger Sub or in the event that the amount paid is insufficient to discharge all of Parent’s and Merger Sub’s outstanding liabilities and pay all applicable Transaction Expenses, no Investor shall have any obligation with respect to the payment of any outstanding liabilities of Parent or Merger Sub or any Transaction Expenses.

Section 3.3 Approvals.

(a) Subject in all respects to the limitations set forth in Section 3.3(b), and Section 3.3(c) each Investor shall use reasonable best efforts, and reasonably cooperate with Parent, Merger Sub and the other Investors, to obtain all applicable governmental, statutory, regulatory or other approvals, licenses, waivers or exemptions required or, in the reasonable opinion of the Key Investors or the Founders, desirable for the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, including the Merger. Parent and Merger Sub shall, if not prohibited by law or regulation, (i) promptly provide each Key Investor with copies of all written notices, filings or written communications to or from any Governmental Authority relating to any such governmental, statutory, regulatory or other approvals, licenses, waivers or exemptions (subject to redactions for sensitive or confidential information), (ii) keep each Key Investor reasonably informed of any written notice or other substantive communication received or given in connection with any proceeding regarding the transactions contemplated hereby or by the Merger Agreement, (iii) give each Investor the reasonable opportunity to review and comment on any documents, written communications and filings that include such Investor as a filing party before transmitting to any Governmental Authority, incorporate all reasonable comments or suggestions proposed by such Investor with respect to such portion that relates to it, and consider in good faith any other comments or suggestions proposed by such Investor, and (iv) participate in any substantive meeting or discussion, either in person or by telephone, with any Governmental Authority in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby or by the Merger Agreement, to the extent relating to an Investor, only with the consultation of such Investor in advance and, to the extent not prohibited by any Governmental Authority, and only if Parent and Merger Sub have given such Investor the opportunity to attend and participate in such meeting or discussion.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Section 3.3(a), (i) no Key Investor shall, whether prior to or following the Closing, be required to cause any portfolio company, investment fund or other Affiliate of any Key Investor (other than Parent, Merger Sub and their direct or indirect Subsidiaries) or any director, officer, employee, general partner, limited partner, member, shareholder or manager of any of the foregoing to take any action, undertake any divestiture or restrict its conduct other than to provide responsive non-confidential information required to make any submission or application to a Governmental Authority (except as is necessary and customary under the circumstances) and to otherwise cooperate in connection with any such submission or application as is necessary and customary under the circumstances (which cooperation shall not include, without limitation, commencing or maintaining any legal action; selling or otherwise disposing of, or holding separate or agreeing to sell or otherwise dispose of, assets, categories of assets or businesses; terminating such Person or its Affiliate’s existing relationships, contractual rights or obligations, or creating any relationship, contractual rights or obligations; effectuating any other change or restructuring of such Person or its Affiliates; or refraining from acquiring or agreeing to acquire or causing or preventing any of such Person’s Affiliates from refraining from acquiring or agreeing to acquire any Person or portion thereof, or from acquiring or agreeing to acquire any assets) and (ii) any of the Investors may, as each deems advisable and necessary, reasonably designate any competitively sensitive material provided to the other Investors under this Section 3.3 as “outside counsel only” and such materials and the information contained therein (1) shall be given only to the outside legal counsel of the recipient and will not be disclosed by such outside counsel to employees, officers or directors of the recipient unless express permission is obtained in advance from the source of the materials and (2) may be redacted (x) to remove references concerning valuation, (y) as necessary to comply with contractual obligations and (z) as necessary to address reasonable privilege concerns.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Section 3.3(a), if (i) an Investor stands ready, willing and able to fulfill its Equity Commitment (a “Pending Investor”) but Consent from any Governmental Authority or third party is necessary, proper or advisable for Parent to accept such Pending Investor’s Equity Commitment (all such Consents, the “Required Consents”), (ii) the Closing Conditions have otherwise been satisfied (or are capable of being satisfied at the Closing) or waived (to the extent such waiver is permitted by this Agreement, the Merger Agreement and applicable Law), and the Closing is otherwise required to occur pursuant to Section 1.06 of the Merger Agreement, and (iii) Parent is able to satisfy its and Merger Sub’s payment obligations under the Merger Agreement, including the payment of all related fees, costs and expenses arising from or incurred in connection with the negotiation, preparation or execution of the Merger Agreement or any other agreement or document expressly referred to therein or the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby without such Pending Investor fulfilling its Equity Commitment, then the Founders, by mutual agreement and acting reasonably and in good faith, and subject to Key Investor Consent (with the majority in interest for such purposes measured without the Capital Commitment of any Pending Investor), shall have the right to cause Parent and Merger Sub to close the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement without such Pending Investor fulfilling its Equity Commitment. For so long as such Pending Investor complies with its agreements in this Section 3.3, then such Pending Investor shall not be considered a Failing Investor (unless such Pending Investor does not fulfill its Equity Commitment promptly upon receipt of all Required Consents).

Section 3.4 Required Information.

(a) Each Investor, on behalf of itself and its respective Affiliates, agrees to promptly provide to Parent and each other Investor, as applicable (consistent with the timing required by the Merger Agreement or applicable Law, as applicable), any information about such Investor (or its Affiliates) that Parent or the Company, as applicable, reasonably determines upon the advice of outside legal counsel is required to be included in (i) the Information Statement, (ii) the Schedule 13E-3, (iii) any Schedule 13D filing with the SEC made by Parent or any Investor, as applicable, or (iv) any other filing or notification with any Governmental Authority in connection with the Merger, this Agreement, the Merger Agreement, the Equity Commitment Letters, the Warrant Exchange Agreement, the Noteholder Conversion Agreement or any other agreement or arrangement to which it (or any of its Affiliates) is a party relating to the transactions contemplated thereby. Each Investor shall reasonably cooperate with Parent and the Company in connection with the preparation of the foregoing documents to the extent such documents relate to such Investor (or any of its Affiliates). Each Investor agrees to permit the Company to publish and disclose in the Information Statement (including all documents filed with or furnished to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commissions (the “SEC”) in accordance therewith), such Investor’s and its respective Affiliates’ identity and beneficial ownership of the shares of capital stock or other securities of the Company and the nature of such Investor’s commitments, arrangements and understandings under this Agreement, the Equity Commitment Letters, the Warrant Exchange Agreement, the Noteholder Conversion Agreement or any other agreement or arrangement to

which such Investor or any of its Affiliates is a party relating to the transactions contemplated thereby (including a copy thereof), to the extent required by applicable Law or the SEC (or its staff). To the extent practicable, Parent and each Investor, severally and not jointly, agree to provide Parent and each of the other Investors, as applicable, a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on any public filing contemplated by this Section 3.4(a).

(b) Each Investor hereby covenants that, solely with respect to any information supplied by such Investor, as applicable, in writing pursuant to this Section 3.4, none of such information contained or incorporated by reference in the Information Statement will at the time of the mailing of the Information Statement to the shareholders of the Company or at the time of any amendments thereof or supplements thereto, and none of such information supplied or to be supplied by such Investor, for inclusion or incorporation by reference in the Schedule 13E-3 to be filed with the SEC (which includes the Information Statement) will, at the time of such filing with the SEC, or at the time of filing with the SEC any amendments thereof or supplements thereto, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. Each Investor agrees to join (and to cause its Affiliates to join, to the extent required by applicable Law or the SEC (or its staff)) as a filing party to any Schedule 13E-3 filing discussed in the preceding sentence.

Section 3.5 Certain Representations and Warranties.

(a) Each Investor, severally and not jointly, hereby represents and warrants to each of the other Investors and to Parent that:

(i) such Investor has not entered into, and will not enter into prior to the Closing, any formal or informal agreement, arrangement or understanding with any potential investor or group of investors, the Company, or any shareholder or securityholder of the Company (other than its Affiliates) with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement or the Merger Agreement (other than the agreements expressly contemplated by this Agreement, the Merger Agreement, the Permitted Syndication, the Equity Commitment Letters, the Warrant Exchange Agreement, and the Noteholder Conversion Agreement);

(ii) if such Investor is not an individual, it is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the Laws of its jurisdiction of organization, and is duly qualified to conduct business, and is in good standing, in each other jurisdiction where the ownership of its properties or the conduct of its business makes such qualification necessary;
