The obligations of each Shareholder specified in this Section 1 shall apply whether or not the Plan of Arrangement or any action described above is recommended by the Company Board or the Company Board has previously recommended the Plan of Arrangement but changed such recommendation.

 

For the avoidance of doubt, except as explicitly set forth in this Section 1, nothing in this Agreement shall limit the right of any Shareholder to vote in favor of, against or abstain with respect to any other matters presented to the shareholders of the Company.

4.  Dissenters’ Rights. Each Shareholder hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to exercise or attempt to exercise, any right to dissent or right of appraisal or any similar provision under applicable Law (including pursuant to the BCBCA) in connection with the Plan of Arrangement and the other transactions as contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement; provided, however, that such Shareholder shall not be prohibited from exercising or attempting to exercise any of the foregoing in the event of fraud or material misrepresentation pertaining to this Agreement on the part of either SPAC or the Company that results or would reasonably be expected to result in a material harm to such Shareholder. Each Shareholder agrees that such Shareholder will not bring, commence, institute, maintain, prosecute or voluntarily aid any action, claim, proceeding, order or other application, at Law or in equity, in any court or before any Governmental Authority, which challenges the validity of or seeks to enjoin, impair or delay the valid operation of any provision of this Agreement, the Plan of Arrangement or the Business Combination Agreement or the consideration and approval thereof by the Shareholders, the Company Board or the governing bodies of any of the Subsidiaries of the Company; provided, however, that such Shareholder shall not be prohibited from bringing, commencing, instituting, maintaining, prosecuting or voluntarily aiding in any of the foregoing in the event of fraud or material misrepresentation pertaining to this Agreement on the part of either SPAC or the Company that results or would reasonably be expected to result in a material harm to such Shareholder.

Other than the Owned Shares set forth opposite such Shareholder’s name on Schedule 1, such Shareholder does not legally own or beneficially hold any Company Shares or any interest therein.

 

(b)  Such Shareholder, in each case except as provided in this Agreement or the Company’s Governing Documents, (i) has full voting power, full power of disposition and full power to issue instructions with respect to the matters set forth herein whether by Ownership or by proxy, in each case, with respect to such Shareholder’s Covered Shares, (ii) has not entered into any shareholders’ agreement, voting agreement, voting trust, pooling agreement or similar agreement, understanding or arrangement, or, to the Shareholders’ knowledge, any right or privilege (by Law or Contract) capable of becoming any of the foregoing, in each case, and has no knowledge and is not aware of any such foregoing agreement or arrangement in effect with respect to any of such Shareholder’s Covered Shares, in each case, that are inconsistent with, or would interfere with, or prohibit or prevent such Shareholder from satisfying its obligations pursuant to, this Agreement, (iii) has not granted a proxy or power of attorney with respect to any of such Shareholder’s Covered Shares that is inconsistent with such Shareholder’s obligations pursuant to this Agreement, and has no knowledge and is not aware of any such proxy or power of attorney in effect, and (iv) has not entered into any agreement or undertaking that is otherwise inconsistent with, or would interfere with, or prohibit or prevent it from satisfying, its obligations pursuant to this Agreement, and has no knowledge and is not aware of any such agreement or undertaking.

(c)  Such Shareholder affirms that (i) if the Shareholder is a natural person, he or she has all the requisite power and authority and has taken all action necessary in order to execute and deliver this Agreement, to perform his or her obligations hereunder and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, and (ii) if the Shareholder is not a natural person, (A) is a legal entity duly organized, validly existing and, to the extent such concept is applicable, in good standing under the Laws of the jurisdiction of its organization, and (B) has all requisite corporate or other power and authority and has taken all corporate or other action necessary in order to, execute, deliver and perform its obligations under this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by such Shareholder and, subject to the due execution and delivery of this Agreement by each other Party, constitutes a legally valid and binding agreement of such Shareholder enforceable against such Shareholder in accordance with the terms hereof (except as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy Laws or other similar Laws affecting creditors’ rights and general principles of equity affecting the availability of specific performance and other equitable remedies).

 

(d)  Other than the filings, notices and reports pursuant to, in compliance with or required to be made under applicable Law, no filings, notices, reports, consents, registrations, approvals, permits, waivers, expirations of waiting periods or authorizations are required to be obtained by such Shareholder from, or to be given by such Shareholder to, or be made by such Shareholder with, any Governmental Authority in connection with the execution, delivery and performance by such Shareholder of this Agreement, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the Arrangement or the other Transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement.

 

(e)  The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by such Shareholder does not, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the Arrangement or the other Transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement will not, constitute or result in (i) a breach or violation of, or a default under, the Governing Documents of such Shareholder (if such Shareholder is not a natural person), (ii) with or without notice, lapse of time or both, a breach or violation of, a termination (or right of termination) of or a default under, the loss of any benefit under, the creation, modification or acceleration of any obligations under or the creation of a Lien on any of the properties, rights or assets of such Shareholder pursuant to any Contract binding upon such Shareholder or, assuming (solely with respect to performance of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby), compliance with the matters referred to in Section 5(d), under any applicable Law to which such Shareholder is subject, or (iii) any change in the rights or obligations of any party under any Contract legally binding upon such Shareholder, except, in the case of clause (ii) or (iii) directly above, for any such breach, violation, termination, default, creation, acceleration or change that would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to prevent or materially delay or impair such Shareholder’s ability to perform its obligations hereunder or to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, the consummation of the Arrangement or the other Transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement.

(g)  Such Shareholder has received a copy of and reviewed the Business Combination Agreement and has had the opportunity to consult with such Shareholder’s tax and legal advisors.

(c)  THE PARTIES EACH HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY PROCEEDING, CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION, OR CAUSE OF ACTION (I) ARISING UNDER THIS SHAREHOLDER SUPPORT AGREEMENT OR (II) IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF THE PARTIES IN RESPECT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED HERETO OR ANY FINANCING IN CONNECTION WITH THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY, IN EACH CASE, WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT, EQUITY, OR OTHERWISE. THE PARTIES EACH HEREBY AGREES AND CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH PROCEEDING, CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE DECIDED BY COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY AND THAT SUCH PARTIES MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OF A COPY OF THIS AGREEMENT WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT OF THE PARTIES TO THE WAIVER OF THEIR RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY.

18.  Assignment; Successors. This Agreement and all of the provisions hereof will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective heirs, successors and permitted assigns. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder will be assigned (including by operation of Law), in whole or in part, without the prior written consent of the Parties. Any such assignment without such consent shall be null and void.

 

19.  Enforcement. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, any and all remedies provided herein will be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred hereby, or by Law or equity upon the Parties, and the exercise by a Party of any one remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other remedy. The Parties agree that immediate and irreparable harm or damage may occur for which monetary damage would not be an adequate remedy in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed or complied with in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that, in addition to any other remedy to which any Party is entitled to at Law or in equity, the Parties shall be entitled to equitable remedies against another Party for its breach or threatened breach of this Agreement, including seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement in the chancery court or any other state or federal court within the State of Delaware, this being in addition to any other remedy to which such Party is entitled at Law or in equity, in each case, (a) without necessity of posting a bond or other form of security, and (b) without proving the inadequacy of monetary damages or another remedy at Law. In the event that any Action shall be brought in equity to enforce the provisions of this Agreement (including to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement), no Party shall allege, and each Party hereby waives all defenses and objections to such Action on the grounds that (i) monetary damages would be adequate or there is another adequate remedy at Law, or (ii) the Party seeking equitable remedies must either post a bond or other form of security and prove the inadequacy of monetary damages or another remedy at Law.

20.  Severability. The provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed severable and the illegality, invalidity or unenforceability of any provision shall not affect the legality, validity or enforceability of the other provisions of this Agreement. If any provision of this Sponsor Agreement is held invalid or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction, the other provisions of this Agreement will remain in full force and effect. Any provision of this Agreement held invalid or unenforceable only in part or degree will remain in full force and effect to the extent not held invalid or unenforceable. The Parties further agree that if any provision contained herein is, to any extent, held invalid or unenforceable in any respect under the Laws governing this Agreement, they shall take any actions necessary to render the remaining provisions of this Agreement valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by Law and, to the extent necessary, shall amend or otherwise modify this Agreement to replace any provision contained herein that is held invalid or unenforceable with a valid and enforceable provision giving effect to the intent of the Parties.

 

21.  Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts (any of which may be delivered by electronic transmission), each of which shall constitute an original, and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

 

22.  Capacity as a Shareholder or Proxy Holder. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each Shareholder or proxy holder signs this Agreement solely in such Shareholder’s or proxy holder’s capacity as a shareholder or proxy holder of the Company and not in any other capacity, and this Agreement shall not limit, prevent or otherwise affect the actions of such Shareholder, proxy holder or any Affiliate, employee or designee of such Shareholder or proxy holder, or any of their respective Affiliates in his or her capacity, if applicable, as an officer or director of the Company (or any Subsidiary of the Company) or any other Person, including in the exercise of his or her fiduciary duties as a director or officer of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company. No Shareholder shall be liable or responsible for any breach, default, or violation of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement by any other Shareholder that is also a Party and each Shareholder shall solely be required to perform its obligations hereunder in its individual capacity.

 

23.  Miscellaneous. Section 1.3 (Construction) and Section 11.1 (Trust Account Waiver) of the Business Combination Agreement are hereby incorporated into this Agreement (including any relevant definitions contained in any such Sections), mutatis mutandis.

 

24.  [Change of Control. Pursuant to Ben Lightburn’s employment agreement with the Company dated March 23, 2021 (the “Employment Agreement”), Mr. Lightburn would be entitled to payment if within a twelve-month period following a Change of Control:

 

(a)  the Company terminates the Employment Agreement, other than for cause, or

 

(b)  the Company alters or amends the material terms of the Employment Agreement without the express consent of Mr. Lightburn, in writing, and Mr. Lightburn elects to resign.

 

13

 

 

If either of the above occurs, the Company will provide Mr. Lightburn with (i) 12 months of his base salary in lieu of notice, plus one month for every completed year of service and partial months for partial complete years of service, plus (ii) a bonus payment in an amount based on the average annual bonus that Mr. Lightburn was paid based on his last two years immediately preceding termination. Mr. Lightburn would also receive any entitlements under his Employment Agreement for termination by the Company without cause. Additionally, Mr. Lightburn’s unvested options would vest and become exercisable in accordance with the terms of the Company’s Omnibus Plan.

 

Under the Employment Agreement, a “Change of Control” is defined as, “any change of control, in fact or in law, including any purchase, sale, transfer, disposition or other transaction, of any nature whatsoever, and whether carried out singly, in combination or as part of a series of transactions, pursuant to or as a result of which any Person (the term “Person” includes an individual, partnership, association, body corporate, trustee, executor, administrator, and legal representative) or group of Persons acting together or in concert shall acquire, hold or exercise, whether directly or indirectly, rights over more than fifty percent (50%) of the outstanding common shares of the Company, or which entitle the holder(s) thereof to more than fifty percent (50%) of the economic value of the Company.

 

Pursuant to Ben Lightburn’s option certificate with the Company dated May 28, 2021, in the event of a Change of Control (as defined in the Equity Incentive Compensation Plan (the “Omnibus Plan”)) or any similar strategic transaction including a De-SPAC transaction, any unvested Awards shall immediately vest and become fully vested, deemed earned in full and promptly paid to the Participant or settled as of the date of such transaction. Unless written terms of an Award otherwise specifically provides, the Incumbent Board (as constituted immediately prior to any alleged Change of Control) shall have the power to determine whether a Change of Control has occurred. The Company’s Board has determined that the Transaction will not constitute a change of control under the Omnibus Plan.

 

With respect to the Transaction, the undersigned hereby irrevocably waives any entitlement to accelerated vesting of any options he holds pursuant to his Option Agreement and Employment Agreement. The undersigned further agrees to irrevocably waive any change of control payment entitlements with respect to the Transaction pursuant to his Employment Agreement. Mr. Lightburn hereby agrees that he will execute an amendment to the Option Agreement and/or the Employment Agreement, if reasonably requested by the Company, to make such amendments to specify that the options will not have accelerated vesting with respect to the Transaction and that the Transaction is not a change of control transaction for the purposes of his Employment Agreement, as applicable.]1
