Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no certificates or scrip representing fractional shares of Acquiror Common Stock shall be issued upon the exchange for Existing Company Common Stock pursuant to Section 3.02, and such fractional share interests shall not entitle the owner thereof to vote or to any other rights of a holder of Acquiror Common Stock.

Section 3.05          Earnout Shares.

(a)           Following the Closing, if, at any time during the period following the Closing Date and expiring on the fifth (5^th) anniversary of the Closing Date (the “Earnout Period”), the VWAP of the shares of Acquiror Common Stock equals or exceeds $16.00 for any twenty (20) Trading Days within a period of thirty (30) consecutive Trading Days (the “Earnout Target”), then as soon as commercially practicable and in any event within five (5) Business Days following the achievement of the Earnout Target, Acquiror will issue 1,500,000 shares of Acquiror Common Stock (the “Earnout Shares”) to the Persons set forth on the Earnout Payment Spreadsheet (the “Earnout Recipients”).

(b)          If at any time during the Earnout Period there occurs any transaction resulting in a Change of Control of Acquiror, then Acquiror shall issue to the Earnout Recipients, in accordance with, and pursuant to the Earnout Payment Spreadsheet, each such Earnout Recipient’s portion of the relevant Earnout Shares (with each Earnout Recipient to receive the portion of the Earnout Shares set forth opposite such Earnout Recipient’s name on the Earnout Payment Spreadsheet); provided that Earnout Shares shall be issued only once upon the occurrence of the foregoing event and thereafter no additional Earnout Shares shall be issued under this Section 3.05(b). To the extent that the Earnout Recipients are service providers of Acquiror after the Closing, the issuance of the Earnout Shares will be made under the Equity Incentive Plan and will be provided for by resolution of the Acquiror Board. The Equity Incentive Plan will reserve the Earnout Shares for issuance to the Earnout Recipients that are service providers of Acquiror, which shall be issued only upon achievement of the Earnout Target.

(e)           If the Earnout Target is not satisfied during the Earnout Period, the obligation to issue Earnout Shares pursuant to this Section 3.06 will terminate and no longer apply.

22

(f)            The Earnout Shares and the Earnout Target will be adjusted to reflect appropriately the effect of any stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend (including any dividend or distribution of securities convertible into shares of Acquiror Common Stock), reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, combination, exchange of shares or other like change with respect to shares of Acquiror Common Stock, occurring on or after the date hereof and prior to the time any such Earnout Shares are delivered to the Earnout Recipients.

Section 6.04          No Claim Against the Trust Account. The Company acknowledges that the Acquiror is a blank check company with the power and privileges to effect a merger, asset acquisition, reorganization or similar business combination involving the Company and one or more businesses or assets, that Acquiror has established the Trust Account for the benefit of Acquiror’s public shareholders and that disbursements from the Trust Account are available only in the limited circumstances set forth therein. The Company further acknowledges that the Acquiror’s sole assets consist of the cash proceeds of the Acquiror’s initial public offering and private placements of its securities, and substantially all of these proceeds have been deposited in the Trust Account for the benefit of its public shareholders. The Company further acknowledges that, if the Transactions or, in the event of termination of this Agreement, another Business Combination, are or is not consummated by October 17, 2025 or such later date as approved by the Acquiror Board to complete a Business Combination, Acquiror will be obligated to return to its shareholders the amounts being held in the Trust Account. Accordingly, the Company (on behalf of itself and its Affiliates) hereby waives any past, present or future claim of any kind against, and any right to access, the Trust Account, any trustee of the Trust Account and Acquiror to collect from the Trust Account any monies that may be owed to them by Acquiror or any of its Affiliates for any reason whatsoever, and will not seek recourse against the Trust Account at any time for any reason whatsoever, provided that (x) nothing herein shall serve to limit or prohibit the Company’s right to pursue a claim against Acquiror for legal relief against monies or other assets held outside the Trust Account, for specific performance or other equitable relief in connection with the consummation of the transactions (including a claim for Acquiror to specifically perform its obligations under this Agreement and cause the disbursement of the balance of the cash remaining in the Trust Account to the Company in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Trust Agreement) so long as such claim would not affect Acquiror’s ability to fulfill its obligation to effectuate redemptions of any shares of Acquiror and (y) nothing herein shall serve to limit or prohibit any claims that the Company may have in the future against Acquiror’s assets or funds that are not held in the Trust Account (including any funds that have been released from the Trust Account and any assets that have been purchased or acquired with any such funds). This Section 6.04 shall survive the termination of this Agreement for any reason.

(b)          From and after the date on which the Registration Statement becomes effective under the Securities Act until the Closing Date, the Company will give Acquiror prompt written notice of any action taken or not taken by the Company or of any development regarding the Company, in any such case which is known by the Company, that would cause the Registration Statement to contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, that, if any such action shall be taken or fail to be taken or such development shall otherwise occur, Acquiror and the Company shall cooperate fully to cause an amendment or supplement to be made promptly to the Registration Statement, such that the Registration Statement no longer contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, further, however, that no information received by Acquiror pursuant to this Section 6.05 shall operate as a waiver or otherwise affect any representation, warranty or agreement given or made by the party who disclosed such information, and no such information shall be deemed to change, supplement or amend the Schedules.

Section 6.06          Non-Solicitation.

(a)           Except as set forth on Schedule 6.06(a), from the date hereof until the earlier of the termination of this Agreement and the Closing, the Company shall not and shall not authorize or permit any of its Affiliates or any of its or their Representatives to, directly or indirectly (i) encourage, solicit, initiate, facilitate or continue inquiries regarding a Company Acquisition Proposal; (ii) enter into discussions or negotiations with, or furnish or disclose any non-public information about the Company to, any Person in connection with or that could reasonably be expected to lead to a possible Company Acquisition Proposal; or (iii) enter into any agreements or other instruments (whether or not binding) regarding a Company Acquisition Proposal. The Company shall immediately cease and cause to be terminated and shall cause its Affiliates and all of its and their representatives to immediately cease and cause to be terminated, all existing discussions or negotiations with any Persons conducted heretofore with respect to, or that could lead to, a Company Acquisition Proposal. For purposes hereof, “Company Acquisition Proposal” shall mean any inquiry, proposal or offer from any Person (other than Acquiror or any of its Affiliates) concerning (i) a merger, consolidation, liquidation, recapitalization, share exchange or other business combination transaction involving the Company; (ii) the issuance or acquisition of outstanding shares of capital stock or other Equity Securities of the Company; or (iii) the sale, lease, exchange or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Company properties or assets.

58

(b)          The Company shall promptly (and in any event within two (2) Business Days) notify, in writing, Acquiror of the receipt of any inquiry, proposal, offer or request for information received after the date hereof that constitutes, or could reasonably be expected to result in or lead to, any Company Acquisition Proposal, which notice shall include a summary of the material terms of, and the identity of the Person or group of Persons making, such inquiry, proposal, offer or request for information and an unredacted copy of any Company Acquisition Proposal or inquiry, proposal or offer made in writing or, if not in writing, a written description of the material terms and conditions of such inquiry, proposal or offer.

Without limiting the foregoing, it is understood that any violation of the restrictions contained in this Section 6.06 by the Company or the Company’s Representatives acting on the Company’s behalf, shall be deemed to be a breach of this Section 6.06 by the Company.

Section 6.07          Aurora Option Agreement. In connection with the consummation of the Transactions and prior to, or on, the Closing Date, pursuant to, and in accordance with, the Aurora Option Agreement, the Company shall (i) exercise the option to acquire all of the issued and outstanding equity interests of Oregon Energy and (ii) issue the Base Payment Shares (as defined in the Aurora Option Agreement) to Aurora, including fully satisfying the Listing Payment (as defined in the Aurora Option Agreement) to Aurora.

(b)          For a period of six years from the Effective Time, Acquiror shall, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, maintain in effect directors’ and officers’ liability insurance covering those Persons who are currently covered by the Company’s directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies (true, correct and complete copies of which have been heretofore made available to Acquiror or its agents or Representatives) on terms not less favorable than the terms of such current insurance coverage; provided, however, that (i) Acquiror may cause coverage to be extended under the Company’s current directors’ and officers’ liability insurance by obtaining a six-year “tail” policy containing terms not materially less favorable than the terms of such current insurance coverage with respect to claims existing or occurring at or prior to the Effective Time, provided that (A) in no event shall Acquiror be required to expend on the premium thereof in excess of 350% of the aggregate annual premiums currently payable by the Company with respect to such current policy (the “Premium Cap”), and (B) if such minimum coverage under any such “tail” policy is or becomes not available at the Premium Cap, then any such tail policy shall contain the maximum coverage available at the Premium Cap; and (ii) if any claim is asserted or made within such six-year period, any insurance required to be maintained under this Section 7.02 shall be continued in respect of such claim until the final disposition thereof.

61

(c)           This Section 7.02 shall survive the consummation of the Merger indefinitely and shall be binding, jointly and severally, on Acquiror and the Surviving Corporation and all successors and assigns of Acquiror and the Surviving Corporation. In the event that Acquiror, the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective successors or assigns consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or transfers or conveys all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, Acquiror and the Surviving Corporation shall ensure that proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of Acquiror or the Surviving Corporation, as the case may be, shall succeed to the obligations set forth in this Section 7.02. The obligations of Acquiror and the Surviving Corporation under this Section 7.02 shall not be terminated or modified in such a manner as to materially and adversely affect any present and former director and officer of the Company without the consent of the affected Person (it being expressly agreed that the covered directors and officers of the Company shall be third party beneficiaries of this Section 7.02).

Prior to the consummation of the Transactions, and subject to the Supermajority Acquiror Stockholder Approval, Acquiror shall take all steps necessary to effect the Redomicile on the day prior to the Closing Date.

Section 8.02          Preparation of Registration Statement; Special Meeting; Solicitation of Company Stockholder Approval.

(a)           As promptly as practicable following the execution and delivery of this Agreement and in any event no later than twenty (20) Business Days following the date of the delivery of the financial statements described in Section 6.05(a), Acquiror shall prepare, with the assistance of the Company, and cause to be filed with the SEC a registration statement on Form S- 4 (as amended or supplemented from time to time, and including the Proxy Statement contained therein, the “Registration Statement”) in connection with the registration under the Securities Act of the Acquiror Common Stock to be issued under this Agreement, including the shares of Acquiror Common Stock that constitute the Aggregate Merger Consideration to be received by the equityholders of the Company, which Registration Statement will also contain the Proxy Statement.

If Acquiror or the Company becomes aware that any information contained in the Registration Statement shall have become false or misleading in any material respect or that the Registration Statement is required to be amended in order to comply with applicable Law, then (i) such party shall promptly inform the other party and (ii) to the extent not prohibited by applicable Law, Acquiror, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand, shall cooperate and mutually agree upon (such agreement not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) an amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement. Acquiror shall use reasonable best efforts to cause the Registration Statement as so amended or supplemented, to be filed with the SEC and to be disseminated to the holders of shares of Acquiror Common Stock, as applicable, in each case pursuant to applicable Law and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Acquiror Organizational Documents. Acquiror shall provide the Company with copies of any written comments, and shall inform the Company of any oral comments, that Acquiror or its counsel receives from the SEC or its staff with respect to the Registration Statement promptly after the receipt of such comments and shall give the Company a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on any proposed written or oral responses to such comments prior to responding to the SEC or its staff, including by participating with the Company or its counsel in any discussions or meetings with the SEC.

Without the prior written consent of the Company, the Proposals shall be the only matters (other than procedural matters) which Acquiror shall propose to be acted on by Acquiror Stockholders at the Special Meeting.

(d)           Acquiror shall use reasonable best efforts to, as promptly as practicable after the Registration Statement is declared effective under the Securities Act, (i) establish the record date (which record date shall be mutually agreed with the Company) for, duly call, give notice of, convene and hold the Special Meeting in accordance with the CLCI, NASDAQ rules and regulations and the Acquiror Organizational Documents (which such Special Meeting shall be no later than thirty (30) Business Days following the date the Registration Statement is declared effective), (ii) cause the Proxy Statement to be disseminated to Acquiror Stockholders in compliance with applicable Law and (iii) solicit proxies from the holders of Acquiror Class A Shares to vote in favor of each of the Proposals.

69

(b)          Tax Treatment.

If, in connection with the preparation and filing of the Registration Statement, the SEC requests or requires that tax opinions be prepared and submitted with respect to the Tax treatment of the Transactions, then (i) if such tax opinion relates to Acquiror or the Acquiror Stockholders, Acquiror will procure Greenberg Traurig, LLP or other counsel to Acquiror (“Acquiror Tax Counsel”) to deliver such tax opinion and (ii) if such tax opinion relates to the Company or the Company Stockholders, the Company will procure Nelson Mullins Riley & Scarborough or other counsel to the Company (“Company Tax Counsel”) to deliver such tax opinions, and, in each case, Acquiror and the Company shall deliver to Acquiror Tax Counsel and Company Tax Counsel customary Tax representation letters reasonably satisfactory and Acquiror Tax Counsel or Company Tax Counsel at such time or times as may be reasonably requested by Acquiror Tax Counsel and Company Tax Counsel, in connection with the delivery of any such tax opinions with respect to the Tax treatment of the Transactions.

Thereafter, between the date of this Agreement and the Closing Date (or the earlier termination of this Agreement in accordance with Article X) unless otherwise prohibited by applicable Law or the requirements of NASDAQ, each of Acquiror and the Company shall each use its commercially reasonable efforts to consult with each other before issuing any press release or otherwise making any public statements with respect to this Agreement, the Merger or any of the other Transactions, and shall not issue any such press release or make any such public statement without the prior written consent of the other party (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

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 contemplated hereby.

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) in accordance with its specified terms or otherwise breach such provisions. The parties acknowledge and agree that (a) the parties shall be entitled to an injunction, specific performance, or other equitable relief, to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, without proof of damages, prior to the valid termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 10.01, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled under this Agreement, and (b) the right of specific enforcement is an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and without that right, none of the parties would have entered into this Agreement. Each party agrees that it will not oppose the granting of specific performance and other equitable relief on the basis that the other parties have an adequate remedy at Law or that an award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at Law or equity. The parties acknowledge and agree that any party seeking an injunction to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement in accordance with this Section 11.13 shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such injunction.

Section 11.14        Non-Recourse. This Agreement may only be enforced against, and any claim or cause of action based upon, arising out of, or related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby may only be brought against, the entities that are expressly named as parties hereto, and then only with respect to the specific obligations set forth herein with respect to such party. Except to the extent a named party to this Agreement (and then only to the extent of the specific obligations undertaken by such named party in this Agreement), (a) no past, present or future director, manager, officer, employee, incorporator, member, partner, stockholder, Affiliate, agent, attorney, advisor or Representative or Affiliate of any named party to this Agreement and (b) no past, present or future director, manager, 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 of or for any claim based on, arising out of, or related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

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 shall terminate and expire upon the occurrence of the Closing (and there shall be no liability after the Effective Time in respect thereof), except for (a) those covenants and agreements contained herein that by their terms expressly apply in whole or in part after the Closing and then only with respect to any breaches occurring after the Closing and (b) this Article XI.
