Founder Shares

On October 21, 2020, the Sponsor paid $25,000 on behalf of the Company to cover certain offering costs in exchange for issuance of 8,625,000 shares of the Company’s Class B common stock (the “Founder Shares”). Additionally, upon consummation of the Business Combination, the Sponsor has agreed to transfer an aggregate of 1,250,625 Founder Shares to the Anchor Investors for the same price originally paid for such shares. The Founder Shares will automatically convert into Class A common stock upon consummation of a Business Combination on a one-for-one basis, subject to certain adjustments, as described in Note 8.

The Founder Shares included an aggregate of up 1,125,000 shares subject to forfeiture to the extent that the underwriter’s option to purchase additional units was not exercised in full, so that the Sponsor would own, on an as-converted basis, 20% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares after the Initial Public Offering. On January 28, 2021, the underwriter fully exercised the over-allotment option; thus, these 1,125,000 Founder Shares were no longer subject to forfeiture.

The Sponsor and the Anchor Investors agreed, subject to limited exceptions, not to transfer, assign or sell any of its Founder Shares until the earlier to occur of: (A) one year after the completion of a Business Combination or (B) subsequent to a Business Combination, (x) if the last reported sale price of the Class A common stock equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after a Business Combination, or (y) the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange or other similar transaction that results in all of the Company’s stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of common stock for cash, securities or other property.

Promissory NoteRelated Party

On October 21, 2020, the Sponsor agreed to loan the Company an aggregate of up to $300,000 to cover expenses related to the Initial Public Offering (the “Promissory Note”). The Promissory Note was non-interest bearing and due upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering. On February 1, 2021, the Company repaid the Promissory Note in full. Subsequent to repayment, the facility is no longer available to the Company.

Related Party Loans

In addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor, or certain of the Company’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required (“Working Capital Loans”). If the Company completes a Business Combination, the Company would repay the Working Capital Loans out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to the Company. Otherwise, the Working Capital Loans would be repaid only out of funds held outside the Trust Account. In the event that a Business Combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of proceeds held outside the Trust Account to repay the Working Capital Loans, but no proceeds held in the Trust Account would be used to repay the Working Capital Loans. Except for the foregoing, the terms of such Working Capital Loans, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans. The Working Capital Loans would either be repaid upon consummation of a Business Combination, without interest, or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $1.5 million of such Working Capital Loans may be convertible into warrants of the post-Business Combination entity at a price of $1.50 per warrant. The warrants would be identical to the Private Placement Warrants. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had no borrowings under the Working Capital Loans.

Administrative Support Agreement

The Company agreed, commencing on the effective date of the Initial Public Offering through the earlier of the Company’s consummation of a Business Combination and its liquidation, to pay the Sponsor a total of $10,000 per month for office space, utilities, secretarial and administrative support. The Sponsor has not received any reimbursement of these fees through September 30, 2022.

Sponsor Support Agreement

In connection with the execution of the Business Combination Agreement, the Sponsor entered into a sponsor support agreement (the “Sponsor Support Agreement”) with the Company and GSH, pursuant to which the Sponsor agreed to, among other things, (i) vote at any meeting of the shareholders of the Company all of its Class B common stock, (the “Sponsor Shares”) and any securities acquired after the execution of the Sponsor Support Agreement, in favor of each Transaction Proposal (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement), (ii) be bound by certain other covenants and agreements related to the Transactions and (iii) be bound by certain transfer and redemption restrictions with respect to such Sponsor Shares, in each case, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Sponsor Support Agreement.

The Sponsor has also agreed, subject to certain exceptions, not to transfer approximately 2.1 million Sponsor Earnout Shares (as defined in the Sponsor Support Agreement) until such shares are released under the Sponsor Support Agreement. Pursuant to the Sponsor Support Agreement, Sponsor Earnout Shares will be released in three tranches upon the occurrence of the following milestones during the period commencing on the 90th day following the date (the “Closing Date”) on which the closing of the Merger (the “Closing”) occurs and ending on the fifth anniversary of the Closing Date: (i) a one-time issuance of 7,500,000 Earn Out Shares on the first date on which the volume weighted average price of DHHC Shares over any 20 trading days within the preceding 30 consecutive trading day period (as adjusted, the “VWAP Price”) is greater than or equal to $12.50 (“Triggering Event I”); (ii) a one-time issuance of 7,500,000 Earn Out Shares on the first date on which the VWAP Price is greater than or equal to $15.00 (“Triggering Event II”); and (iii) a one-time issuance of 5,000,000 Earn Out Shares on the first date on which the VWAP Price is greater than or equal to $17.50 (“Triggering Event III”, together with Triggering Event I and Triggering Event II, the “Earn-Out Milestones”). Any such Sponsor Earnout Shares not vested prior to the fifth anniversary of the Closing Date will be deemed to be forfeited.

The Sponsor has also agreed that in the event that Closing DHHC Cash (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement) is less than $100,000,000, up to 1.0 million Sponsor Shares will be Sponsor Earnout Shares, subject to the same release conditions set forth in the preceding paragraph. In addition, members of the Sponsor have made a commitment to purchase and not redeem an aggregate of 2.5 million Public Shares.

The Sponsor has also agreed, pursuant to the terms of the Sponsor Support Agreement, to forfeit approximately 1.8 million Sponsor Shares and approximately 50% of its Private Placement Warrants.

Financing Commitment Letter

In connection with the execution of the Business Combination Agreement, we entered into a financing commitment letter (the “Financing Commitment Letter”) with the Sponsor, David T. Hamamoto, our Co-Chief Executive Officer and Chairman and an affiliate of our Sponsor, and Antara Capital, an affiliate of our Sponsor, pursuant to which David T. Hamamoto and Antara Capital (collectively, the “Investors”) will commit to, or cause their respective affiliates to, purchase and not redeem at least in the aggregate 2.5 million DHHC Class A Common Shares. Specifically, the Investors have agreed, among other things, severally, and not jointly, subject to certain terms and conditions, (i) to purchase (in open market transactions or otherwise), or to cause one or more of its controlled affiliates to purchase, and beneficially own no less than 1,250,000 DHHC Class A Common Shares, no later than the date that is five (5) business days prior to the special meeting of our stockholders to consider matters relating to the proposed Merger and (ii) following such purchases, not to sell, contract to sell, redeem or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, the acquired shares or the economic ownership of the acquired shares at any time prior to the consummation of the Transactions. The acquired shares will not be subject to any restrictions on transfer or disposition.

In the event an Investor fails to make the committed purchase, the defaulting investor will automatically forfeit 1,250,000 DHHC Class B Common Shares it is entitled to receive in connection with the Closing for the benefit of the non-defaulting Investor or its designated controlled affiliates.
