(i) In the event that the VWAP of the Pubco Class A Common Stock on the Trading Market equals or exceeds $12.50 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations and recapitalizations) (the “Tier I Share Price Target”) for any twenty (20) Trading Days within any consecutive thirty (30) Trading Days during the Earnout Period, then, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Seller holding the Class A Units shall be entitled to receive one-third of the Earnout Shares.

6

(ii) In the event that the VWAP of the Pubco Class A Common Stock on the Trading Market equals or exceeds $15.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations and recapitalizations) (the “Tier II Share Price Target”) for any twenty (20) Trading Days within any consecutive thirty (30) Trading Days during the Earnout Period, then, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Seller holding the Class A Units shall be entitled to receive one-third of the Earnout Shares.

(iii) In the event that the VWAP of the Pubco Class A Common Stock on the Trading Market equals or exceeds $17.50 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations and recapitalizations) (the “Tier III Share Price Target” and the Tier I Share Price Target or Tier II Share Price Target, a “Share Price Target) for any twenty (20) Trading Days within any consecutive thirty (30) Trading Days during the Earnout Period, then, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Seller holding the Class A Units shall be entitled to receive one-third of the Earnout Shares.

In the event that the applicable Share Price Targets are not met during the Earnout Period, the Seller holding the Class A Units shall not be entitled to receive the applicable portion of the Earnout Shares.

(b) With respect to the achievement of the Share Price Targets, Pubco’s Chief Financial Officer (the “CFO”) shall monitor the VWAP of Pubco Class A Common Stock on each Trading Day during the Earnout Period, and as soon as practicable (and in any event within ten (10) Business Days) after the end of each monthly anniversary of the Closing during the Earnout Period, the CFO will prepare and deliver to each of the Seller Representative and SPAC Representative (each, a “Representative Party”) a written statement (each, a “Earnout Statement”) that sets forth (i) the VWAP of Pubco Class A Common Stock on each Trading Day for such monthly anniversary period then ended and the preceding monthly period and (ii) whether a Share Price Target has been achieved for any twenty (20) Trading Days within any thirty (30) Trading Day period that includes any days within such monthly anniversary period. Each Representative Party will have ten (10) Business Days after its receipt of an Earnout Statement to review it, and each Representative Party and its Representatives on its behalf may make inquiries to the CFO and related Pubco and Company personnel and advisors regarding questions concerning or disagreements with the Earnout Statement arising in the course of their review thereof, and Pubco and the Company shall provide reasonable cooperation in connection therewith. If either Representative Party has any objections to an Earnout Statement, such Representative Party shall deliver to Pubco (to the attention of the CFO) and the other Representative Party a statement setting forth its objections thereto (in reasonable detail). If such written statement is not delivered by a Representative Party within ten (10) Business Days following the date of delivery of each Earnout Statement, then such Representative Party will have waived its right to contest such Earnout Statement and the calculation of the VWAP of Pubco Class A Common Stock during the applicable portion of the Earnout Period (and whether a Share Price Target has been achieved). If such written statement is delivered by a Representative Party within such ten (10) Business Day period, then the Representative Parties shall negotiate in good faith to resolve any such objections for a period of ten (10) Business Day thereafter. If the Representative Parties do not reach a final resolution during such ten (10) Business Day period, then the final determination of the VWAP of Pubco Class A Common Stock during the applicable portion of the Earnout Period then the dispute shall be referred to the independent directors serving on the Post-Closing Pubco Board at such time that are disinterested in the Earnout Shares (i.e., such independent director is not a Seller, an Affiliate of a Seller, or an officer, director, manager, employee, trustee or beneficiary of a Seller, nor an immediate family member of any of the foregoing) (each, a “Disinterested Independent Director”), who shall determine, by vote or consent of a majority of the Disinterested Independent Directors, whether one, both, or neither Share Price Target has been achieved and whether the Sellers are entitled to receive Earnout Shares.

7

(c) Following the Closing (including during the Earnout Period), Pubco and its Subsidiaries, including the Target Companies, will be entitled to operate their respective businesses based upon the business requirements of Pubco and its Subsidiaries. Each of Pubco and its Subsidiaries, including the Target Companies, will be permitted, following the Closing (including during the Earnout Period), to make changes in its sole discretion to its operations, organization, personnel, accounting practices and other aspects of its business, including actions that may have an impact on the VWAP of Pubco Class A Common Stock and the ability of the Sellers to earn the Earnout Shares.

1.13 Payment of the Note. At the Closing, the Note will be fully paid in cash by the Pubco; provided that if the Pubco has insufficient funds available to satisfy the Note in full at the Closing, then any remaining balance shall accrue interest at the AFR and be paid off promptly following Closing.

No Target Company is or has in the past been a member of a “controlled group” for purposes of Section 414(b), (c), (m) or (o) of the Code, nor does any Target Company have any Liability with respect to any collectively-bargained for plans, whether or not subject to the provisions of ERISA.

No Company Benefit Plan is subject to Title IV of ERISA or Section 412 of the Code, and neither the Target Company nor any ERISA Affiliate has incurred any Liability or otherwise could have any Liability, contingent or otherwise, under Title IV of ERISA and no condition presently exists that is expected to cause such Liability to be incurred. No Company Benefit Plan will become a multiple employer plan with respect to any Target Company immediately after the Closing Date. No Target Company currently maintains or has ever maintained, or is required currently or has ever been required to contribute to or otherwise participate in, a multiple employer welfare arrangement or voluntary employees’ beneficiary association as defined in Section 501(c)(9) of the Code.

30

No Target Company has incurred any Liability for any Tax imposed under Chapter 43 of the Code or civil liability under Section 502(i) or (l) of ERISA.

(i) Except to the extent required by Section 4980B of the Code or similar state Law, no Target Company provides health or welfare benefits to any former or retired employee or is obligated to provide such benefits to any active employee following such employee’s retirement or other termination of employment or service.

(j) All Company Benefit Plans can be terminated at any time as of or after the Closing Date without resulting in any Liability to the Surviving Subsidiaries or Pubco, or their respective Affiliates for any additional contributions, penalties, premiums, fees, fines, excise taxes or any other charges or liabilities.

(k) Each Company Benefit Plan that is subject to Section 409A of the Code (each, a “Section 409A Plan”) as of the Closing Date is indicated as such on Schedule 5.19(k).

All contributions required to be made with respect to a Foreign Pension Plan have been timely made, and no Foreign Pension Plan has any Liability which is not properly accrued on the Company Financials. No Target Company has incurred any obligation in connection with the termination of, or withdrawal from, any Foreign Pension Plan. The present value of the accrued benefit Liabilities (whether or not vested) under each Foreign Pension Plan, determined as of the end of the Target Company’s most recently ended fiscal year on the basis of actuarial assumptions, each of which is reasonable, did not exceed the current value of the assets of such Foreign Pension Plan allocable to such benefit Liabilities.

Article IX

WAIVERS AND RELEASES

9.1 Waiver of Claims Against Trust. Reference is made to the IPO Prospectus. The Company hereby represents and warrants that it has read the IPO Prospectus and understands that SPAC has established the Trust Account containing the proceeds of the IPO and the overallotment shares acquired by SPAC’s underwriters and from certain private placements occurring simultaneously with the IPO (including interest accrued from time to time thereon) for the benefit of SPAC’s public shareholders (including overallotment shares acquired by SPAC’s underwriters) (the “Public Shareholders”) and that, except as otherwise described in the IPO Prospectus, SPAC may disburse monies from the Trust Account only: (a) to the Public Stockholders in the event they elect to redeem their SPAC shares in connection with the consummation of SPAC’s initial business combination (as such term is used in the Prospectus) (the “Business Combination”) or in connection with an extension of its deadline to consummate a Business Combination, (b) to the Public Stockholders if SPAC fails to consummate a Business Combination within twenty-four (24) months after the closing of the IPO, subject to extension by an amendment to SPAC’s organizational documents, (c) with respect to any interest earned on the amounts held in the Trust Account, amounts necessary to pay for any franchise or income taxes or (d) to SPAC after or concurrently with the consummation of a Business Combination. For and in consideration of SPAC entering into this Agreement and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the Company hereby agrees on behalf of itself and its Affiliates that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, none of the Company nor any of its Affiliates do now or shall at any time hereafter have any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies in the Trust Account or distributions therefrom, or make any claim against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom), regardless of whether such claim arises as a result of, in connection with or relating in any way to, this Agreement or any proposed or actual business relationship between SPAC or any of its Representatives, on the one hand, and the Company or any of its Representatives, on the other hand, or any other matter, and regardless of whether such claim arises based on contract, tort, equity or any other theory of legal liability (any and all such claims are collectively referred to herein as, the “Released Claims”). The Company, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates, hereby irrevocably waives any Released Claims that any such Party or any of its Affiliates may have against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) now or in the future as a result of, or arising out of, any negotiations, contracts or agreements with SPAC or its Representatives and will not seek recourse against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) for any reason whatsoever (including for an alleged breach of this Agreement or any other agreement with SPAC or its Affiliates). The Company agrees and acknowledges that such irrevocable waiver is material to this Agreement and specifically relied upon by SPAC and its Affiliates to induce SPAC to enter in this Agreement, and the Company further intends and understands such waiver to be valid, binding and enforceable against such Party and each of its Affiliates under applicable Law. To the extent that the Company or any of its respective Affiliates commences any Action based upon, in connection with, relating to or arising out of any matter relating to SPAC or its Representatives, which proceeding seeks, in whole or in part, monetary relief against SPAC or its Representatives, the Company hereby acknowledges and agrees that its and its Affiliates’ sole remedy shall be against funds held outside of the Trust Account and that such claim shall not permit such Party or any of its Affiliates (or any Person claiming on any of their behalves or in lieu of them) to have any claim against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) or any amounts contained therein. In the event that the Company or any of its respective Affiliates commences Action based upon, in connection with, relating to or arising out of any matter relating to SPAC or its Representatives which proceeding seeks, in whole or in part, relief against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) or the Public Shareholders, whether in the form of money damages or injunctive relief, SPAC and its Representatives, as applicable, shall be entitled to recover from the Company and its Affiliates, as applicable, the associated legal fees and costs in connection with any such Action, in the event SPAC or its Representatives, as applicable, prevails in such Action. This Section 9.1 shall survive termination of this Agreement for any reason and continue indefinitely.
