At the Effective Time, (a) all Dissenting Shares shall be cancelled, extinguished and cease to exist and (b) the holders of Dissenting Shares shall be entitled to only such rights as may be granted to him, her or it under the CGCL or the DGCL, as applicable.

Section 6.08 Acquiror SEC Reports; Financial Statements; Sarbanes-Oxley Act; Undisclosed Liabilities.

(a) Acquiror has filed or furnished in a timely manner all Acquiror SEC Reports. None of the Acquiror SEC Reports, as of their respective dates (or if amended or superseded by a filing prior to the date of this Agreement or the Closing Date, then on the date of the last such amendment or filing), contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The audited financial statements and unaudited interim financial statements (including, in each case, the notes and schedules thereto) included in the Acquiror SEC Reports complied as to form in all material respects with the published rules and regulations of the SEC with respect thereto in effect at the time of such filing, were prepared in accordance with GAAP applied on a consistent basis during the periods involved (except as may be indicated therein or in the notes thereto and with respect to unaudited statements as permitted by Form 10-Q of the SEC) and fairly present (subject, in the case of the unaudited interim financial statements included therein, to normal year-end adjustments and the absence of complete footnotes) in all material respects the financial position of Acquiror as of the respective dates thereof and the results of their operations and cash flows for the respective periods then ended. The Acquiror does not have any material off-balance sheet arrangements that are not disclosed in the Acquiror SEC Reports.

(b) Acquiror has established and maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act). Such disclosure controls and procedures are reasonably designed to ensure that material information relating to Acquiror is made known to Acquiror’s principal executive officer and its principal financial officer, particularly during the periods in which the periodic reports required under the Exchange Act are being prepared. To Acquiror’s knowledge, such disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting Acquiror’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer to material information required to be included in Acquiror’s periodic reports required under the Exchange Act.

(c) Acquiror has established and maintained a system of internal controls. To Acquiror’s knowledge, such internal controls are sufficient to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of Acquiror’s financial reporting and the preparation of Acquiror’s financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP.

weakness in the system of internal accounting controls utilized by Acquiror, (ii) any fraud, whether or not material, that involves Acquiror’s management or other employees who have a role in the preparation of financial statements or the internal accounting controls utilized by Acquiror or (iii) any claim or allegation regarding any of the foregoing.

Section 6.09 Business Activities.

(a) Since its incorporation, Acquiror has not conducted any business activities other than activities directed toward the accomplishment of a Business Combination. Except as set forth in the Acquiror Organizational Documents, there is no agreement, commitment, or Governmental Order binding upon any Acquiror Party or to which any Acquiror Party is a party which has or would reasonably be expected to have the effect of prohibiting or impairing any business practice of any Acquiror Party or any acquisition of property by any Acquiror Party or the conduct of business by any Acquiror Party as currently conducted or as contemplated to be conducted as of the Closing other than such effects, individually or in the aggregate, which have not had and would not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the ability of any Acquiror Party to enter into and perform its obligations under this Agreement. The Merger Sub was formed solely for the purpose of engaging in the Transactions, has not conducted any business prior to the date hereof and will not conduct any business prior to the Closing except for matters incidental to engaging in the Transactions, and has no assets, liabilities or obligations of any nature other than those incident to its formation and pursuant to this Agreement and any Transaction Document to which it is or will be a party, as applicable, and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement and such Transaction Documents, as applicable.

(b) Except for the Merger Sub, Acquiror does not own, or have any right to acquire, directly or indirectly, any interest or investment (whether equity or debt) in any corporation, partnership, joint venture, business, trust or other entity. Except for this Agreement and the Transactions, neither Acquiror nor any of its Subsidiaries has any interests, rights, obligations or liabilities with respect to, or is party to, bound by or has its assets or property subject to, in each case whether directly or indirectly, any Contract or transaction which is, or could reasonably be interpreted as constituting, a Business Combination.

(c) There is no Indebtedness of or claim or judgment against the Acquiror or any of its Subsidiaries, except for those (i) reflected or reserved for on Acquiror’s September 30, 2023 consolidated balance sheet or disclosed in the notes thereto (other than any such liabilities not reflected, reserved or disclosed as are not and would not be, in the aggregate, material to Acquiror and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole), (ii) that have arisen since the date of Acquiror’s September 30, 2023 consolidated balance sheet in the ordinary course of the operation of business of Acquiror and its Subsidiaries (other than any such liabilities as are not and would not be, in the aggregate, material to Acquiror and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole), (iii) disclosed in the Acquiror Disclosure Letter or (iv) incurred in connection with or contemplated by this Agreement and/or the Transactions.

(d) Since September 30, 2023, (a) there has not been any event or occurrence that has had, or would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on the ability of the Acquiror to enter into and perform its obligations under this Agreement and (b) except as set forth in Section 6.09(d) of the Acquiror Disclosure Letter, the Acquiror has, in all material respects, conducted its business and operated its properties in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice.

Section 6.10 Tax Matters.

(a) All material Tax Returns required by Law to be filed by (or on behalf of) any Acquiror Party have been timely filed (after giving effect to any valid extensions), and all such Tax Returns are true, correct and complete in all material respects. No Acquiror Party is currently the beneficiary of any extension of time within which to file any material Tax Return other than extensions of time to file Tax Returns obtained in the ordinary course of business.

(b) All material amounts of Taxes and all material Tax liabilities due and owing by any Acquiror Party have been timely paid in full and for periods not covered by the financial statements of Acquiror have been properly accrued on the books and records of the Acquiror in accordance with GAAP, and since the date of Acquiror’s consolidated balance sheet for the Company’s fiscal year ended February 28, 2021, no Acquiror Party has incurred any material Tax liability outside the ordinary course of business other than any liabilities incurred in connection with the Transactions.

(c) All material Taxes that the Acquiror Parties are (or were) required by Law to withhold or collect in connection with amounts paid or owing to any employee, independent contractor, creditor, stockholder, member or other Person have been duly withheld or collected, and have been timely paid over to the proper authorities to the extent due and payable. Each Acquiror Party has complied in all material respects with applicable Law with respect to Tax withholding, including all reporting and record keeping requirements.

(d) No Acquiror Party is currently or has, within the past three years, been engaged in any audit, administrative proceeding or judicial proceeding with respect to Taxes by a taxing authority (and no such audit or proceeding is pending or, to the knowledge of the Acquiror Parties, contemplated). No Acquiror Party has received within the last three years any written notice from a Governmental Authority of a dispute or claim with respect to material amount of Taxes, other than disputes or claims that have since been resolved, and no such claims have been threatened in writing. There are no outstanding agreements extending or waiving the statutory period of limitations applicable to any claim for, or the period for the collection or assessment or reassessment of, material amount of Taxes of an Acquiror Party and no written request for any such waiver or extension is currently pending.

(e) No Acquiror Party is presently contesting any material Tax liability of such Acquiror Party before any taxing authority or other Governmental Authority.

(f) No written claim has ever been made by any taxing authority in a jurisdiction where an Acquiror Party does not file Tax Returns that such Acquiror Party is or may be subject to material taxation by that jurisdiction.

(h) No Acquiror Party (i) has been a party to any “listed transaction” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.6011-4(b) or (ii) has executed or entered into any “closing agreement” or other binding written agreement with respect to material Taxes with a Governmental Authority that created obligations that will bind any Acquiror Party after the Closing.

(i) No Acquiror Party will be required to include any material item of income in, or exclude any material item of deduction from, taxable income for any taxable period (or portion thereof) ending after the Closing Date as a result of any: (A) a “closing agreement” as described in Section 7121 of the Code (or any corresponding or similar provision of state, local or non U.S. income Tax Law) entered into prior to the Closing; (B) an intercompany item under Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502-13 or an excess loss account under Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502-19; (C) change in method of accounting for a taxable period (or portion thereof) ending on or prior to the Closing Date and made prior to the Closing; (D) election pursuant to Section 108(i) of the Code made prior to the Closing; (E) installment sale or open transaction disposition made prior to the Closing; or (F) prepaid amount received prior to the Closing. As of the date hereof, no Acquiror Party owns (or has owned) any interest in a Person treated as a controlled foreign corporation (as defined in Section 957 of the Code) or a specified foreign corporation (as defined in Section 965 of the Code).

(j) There are no Liens with respect to any material amount of Taxes on any of the assets of any Acquiror Party, other than Permitted Liens.

(l) No Acquiror Party has any material liability for the Taxes of any Person (other than the Acquiror Parties) (i) as a result of having been a member of any affiliated group within the meaning of Section 1504(a) of the Code, or any similar affiliated or consolidated group for Tax purposes under any state, local or foreign Law (other than a group the common parent of which is Acquiror); (ii) under Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502-6 (or any similar provision of any state, local or foreign Law), (iii) as a transferee or successor or (iv) by Contract or otherwise (except, in each case, for liabilities pursuant to commercial contracts (or Contracts entered into in the ordinary course of business) not primarily relating to Taxes).

(m) No Acquiror Party is a party to, is bound by, or has any obligation to any Governmental Authority or other Person (other than the Acquiror Parties) under any Tax allocation, Tax sharing Tax indemnification or similar agreements (except, in each case, for any such agreements that are commercial contracts not primarily relating to Taxes).

(n) No Acquiror Party has knowingly taken any action (or knowingly permitted any action to be taken), or is aware of any fact or circumstance (other than any fact or circumstance relating to the value of the Acquiror Common Stock after the date hereof), that would reasonably be expected to prevent the Merger from constituting an integrated transaction that qualifies as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder.

Acquiror shall, and shall direct its Representatives to, immediately cease any and all existing discussions or negotiations with any Person conducted prior to the date hereof with respect to, or which is reasonably likely to give rise to or result in, a Business Combination Proposal.

Section 9.04 Tax Matters.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Acquiror shall pay all transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration, value-added or other similar Taxes incurred in connection with the Transactions (collectively “Transfer Taxes”). Acquiror shall, at its own expense, file all necessary Tax Returns with respect to all such Taxes, and, if required by applicable Law, the Company will join in the execution of any such Tax Returns.

(b) For U.S. federal income tax purposes (and for purposes of any applicable state or local Income Tax that follows the U.S. federal income tax treatment of the Merger), each of the Parties intends that the Merger qualify for the Intended Income Tax Treatment. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, the Parties will prepare and file all Tax Returns consistent with the Intended Income Tax Treatment and will not take any inconsistent position on any Tax Return or during the course of any audit, litigation or other proceeding with respect to Taxes, in each case, except (i) as a result of a determination within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code after a challenge to such characterization that is initiated by a taxing authority or (ii) where the Company does not elect to apply the Minimum Share Consideration and such failure results in the Company or Acquiror not being able to file its Tax Returns in a manner consistent with the Intended Income Tax Treatment under applicable Law. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 9.04(b) shall prevent any Party or its Affiliates or Representatives from settling, or require any of them to litigate, any challenge or other similar proceeding by any Governmental Authority with respect to the Intended Income Tax Treatment after using good faith efforts to defend the Intended Income Tax Treatment with respect to the Company or Acquiror. Each Party agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to promptly notify all other Parties of any challenge to the Intended Income Tax Treatment by any Governmental Authority. Each of the Parties agrees to reasonably cooperate with each other and their respective counsel to document and provide factual support for the Intended Income Tax Treatment, including by reasonably cooperating to provide customary factual support letters.

(c) No Party shall knowingly take or cause to be taken any action, which action would reasonably be expected to prevent the Merger from so qualifying for the Intended Income Tax Treatment (provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 9.04(c) or any other

provision in this Agreement shall constitute a representation or warranty about the Company making or not making, or shall place any limit on the Company’s choice regarding making or not making, the election to apply the Minimum Share Consideration).

(d) The Company, Acquiror and Merger Sub hereby adopt this Agreement as a “plan of reorganization” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Sections 1.368-2(g) and 1.368-3(a).

Section 9.05 Confidentiality; Publicity.

The Confidentiality Agreement shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and shall apply to all information furnished thereunder or hereunder and any other activities contemplated hereby and thereby. The Company acknowledges that, in connection with the PIPE, Acquiror shall be entitled to disclose, pursuant to the Exchange Act, any information contained in any presentation to the PIPE investors, which information may include Confidential Information (as defined in the Confidentiality Agreement); provided, that, Acquiror provides the Company with a reasonable opportunity to review and provide comments to such presentation and the Company consents to the contents thereof.

(b) The Company and the Acquiror shall reasonably cooperate to create and implement a communications plan regarding the Transactions promptly following the date hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of Acquiror, the Company or any of their respective Affiliates shall make any public announcement or issue any public communication regarding this Agreement or the Transactions, or any matter related to the foregoing, without first obtaining the prior consent of the Company or Acquiror, as applicable (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, delayed or denied), except (i) if such announcement or other communication is required by applicable Law or legal process (including pursuant to the Securities Laws (including Section 13(d) and Section 16 thereof) or the rules of any national securities exchange), in which case Acquiror or the Company, as applicable, shall use their reasonable efforts to obtain such consent with respect to such announcement or communication with the other Party, prior to announcement or issuance; provided that nothing contained herein shall restrict or limit or require any consent with respect to any announcement or other communication by the Sponsor required by applicable Law or legal process (including pursuant to the Securities Laws (including Section 16 thereof) or the rules of any national securities exchange); provided that to the extent not prohibited by Law, the Company, Acquiror and their respective counsel shall be given a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on the public announcement or public communication, and Sponsor shall give reasonable and good faith consideration to any comments made by the Company, Acquiror and their respective counsel; (ii) subject to this Section 9.05, each Party and its Affiliates may make announcements regarding the status and terms (including price terms) of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby to their respective directors, officers, direct and indirect current or prospective limited partners and investors and financing sources, in each case, so long as such recipients are obligated to keep such information confidential, without the consent of any other Party; and (iii) each party may make announcements and communications to Governmental Authorities in connection with filings or Permits relating to the Transactions required to be made under this Agreement; and provided, further, that subject to this Section 9.05,

the foregoing shall not prohibit any Party from communicating with third parties to the extent necessary for the purpose of seeking any third party consent; provided, further, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing in this Section 9.05(b) (a) public announcements and communications that are consistent with public announcements and communications previously approved pursuant to this Section 9.05(b) shall not require approval by either Party, and (b) subject to compliance with Section 9.05(a), communications by the Company with its customers, employees and other existing or prospective business relationships will not be considered public announcements or communications for purposes of this Section 9.05(b); provided, further, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 9.05(b), nothing herein shall modify or affect Acquiror’s obligations pursuant to Section 10.02.

(c) The initial press release concerning this Agreement and the Transactions shall be a joint press release in the form mutually agreed by the Company and Acquiror prior to the execution of this Agreement, and such initial press release shall be released as promptly as practicable after the execution of this Agreement but no later than 6:30 AM Eastern time following such execution date, subject to Acquiror’s consultations with the NYSE.

Section 9.06 Post-Closing Cooperation; Further Assurances. Following the Closing, each Party shall, on the request of any other Party, execute such further documents, and perform such further acts, as may be reasonably necessary or appropriate to give full effect to the allocation of rights, benefits, obligations and liabilities contemplated by this Agreement and the Transactions.

Section 9.07 Notification of Certain Matters. During the Interim Period, the Company shall give prompt notice to the Acquiror, and the Acquiror shall give prompt notice to the Company, of (a) any notice or other communication received by such Party from any Governmental Authority in connection with the Merger or the other transactions contemplated hereby or from any Person alleging that the consent of such Person is or may be required in connection with the Merger, if the subject matter of such communication or the failure of such Party to obtain such consent would reasonably be expected to be materially adverse to the Company, its subsidiaries and the Group Companies, taken as a whole, or the Acquiror, (b) any facts or circumstances, or the occurrence or non-occurrence of any event that, individually or in the aggregate, would reasonably be expected to cause any of the conditions in Article X to fail and (c) any actions, suits, claims or proceedings commenced or, to such Party’s knowledge, threatened in writing against, relating to such Party’s ability to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby; provided, that the delivery of any written notice pursuant to this Section 9.07 shall not limit the rights or remedies available to the Party receiving such written notice.

EACH OF THE PARTIES HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION BASED UPON, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

Section 12.13 Enforcement. The Parties agree that irreparable damage for which monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy, would occur in the event that the Parties do not perform their obligations under the provisions of this Agreement (including failing to take such actions as are required of them hereunder to consummate this Agreement) or any other Transaction Document in accordance with its specified terms or otherwise breach such provisions. The Parties acknowledge and agree that (i) the Parties shall be entitled to an injunction, specific performance, or other equitable relief, to prevent breaches of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof and thereof, without proof of damages, prior to the valid termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 11.01, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, and (ii) the right of specific enforcement is an integral part of the Transactions and without that right, none of the Parties would have entered into this Agreement.

Except to the extent a Party (and then only to the extent of the specific obligations undertaken by such Party in this Agreement), (a) no past, present or future director, officer, employee, incorporator, member, partner, stockholder, Affiliate, agent, attorney, advisor or Representative or Affiliate of any Party and (b) no past, present or future director, officer, employee, incorporator, member, partner, stockholder, Affiliate, agent, attorney, advisor or Representative or Affiliate of any of the foregoing, shall have any liability (whether in contract, tort, equity or otherwise) for any one or more of the representations, warranties, covenants, agreements or other obligations or liabilities of any one or more of the Company, Acquiror or Merger Sub under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document of or for any claim based on, arising out of, or related to this Agreement or the Transactions, and each Party hereby waives and releases all claims, causes of actions and liabilities related thereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 12.14 shall limit, amend or waive any rights or obligations of any party to any Transaction Document for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such rights or obligations.

Section 12.15 Nonsurvival of Representations, Warranties and Covenants. None of the representations, warranties, covenants, obligations or other agreements in this Agreement or in any

certificate, statement or instrument delivered pursuant to this Agreement, including any rights arising out of any breach of such representations, warranties, covenants, obligations, agreements and other provisions, shall survive the Closing and each shall terminate and expire upon the occurrence of the Effective Time (and there shall be no liability after the Closing in respect thereof), except for (a) those covenants and agreements contained herein that by their terms expressly apply in whole or in part at or after the Closing and then only with respect to any breaches at or after the Closing and (b) this Article XII.
