Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

 

As previously disclosed, on December 29, 2022, Prime Number Acquisition I Corp., a Delaware corporation (“we”, “us”, “our”, “PNAC” or the “Company”) entered into a Business Combination Agreement, dated December 29, 2022 (as may be amended, supplemented, or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Business Combination Agreement”), with Prime Number Holding Limited, an exempted company limited by shares incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands (“PubCo”), Prime Number Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of PubCo (“Merger Sub”), Prime Number New Sub Pte. Ltd., a Singapore private company limited by shares and a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of PubCo (“New SubCo”), NOCO-NOCO PTE. LTD., a Singapore private company limited by shares (“noco-noco”), and certain shareholders of noco-noco collectively holding a controlling interest (together with other shareholders of noco-noco subsequently joining the transactions, the “Sellers”), pursuant to which PNAC is proposing to enter into a business combination with noco-noco involving a merger and a share exchange, among which: (i) Merger Sub will merger with and into PNAC, with PNAC as the surviving entity and a wholly-owned subsidiary of PubCo (the “Merger”), (ii) New SubCo will acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of noco-noco from the Sellers, and in exchange, PubCo will issue to the Sellers the ordinary shares of PubCo, with noco-noco becoming a subsidiary of New SubCo and an indirect subsidiary of PubCo (the “Share Exchange”, and together with the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement, the “Business Combination”). Upon the consummation of the Business Combination, each of PNAC and noco-noco would become a subsidiary of PubCo, and PNAC stockholders and the Sellers would receive ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share, of PubCo (“PubCo Ordinary Shares”) as consideration and become the shareholders of PubCo.

 

Forward Purchase Agreement with Meteora

 

On August 13, 2023, PNAC entered into an agreement with (i) Meteora Capital Partners, LP (“MCP”), (ii) Meteora Select Trading Opportunities Master, LP (“MSTO”), and (iii) Meteora Strategic Capital, LLC (“MSC” and, collectively with MCP and MSTO, the “Seller”) (the “Forward Purchase Agreement”) for OTC Equity Prepaid Forward Transactions. For purposes of the Forward Purchase Agreement, PNAC is referred to as the “Counterparty” prior to the consummation of the Business Combination, while NOCO-NOCO PTE. LTD. is referred to as the “Counterparty” after the consummation of the Business Combination. Capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Forward Purchase Agreement.

 

Pursuant to the terms of the Forward Purchase Agreement, the Seller intends, but is not obligated, to purchase up to 2,000,000 (the “Purchased Amount”) Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share, of PNAC (“PNAC Shares”) concurrently with the Closing pursuant to the Seller’s FPA Funding Amount PIPE Subscription Agreement (as defined herein), less the number of PNAC Shares purchased by the Seller separately from third parties through a broker in the open market (“Recycled Shares”). The Seller will not be required to purchase an amount of PNAC Shares such that following such purchase, that the Seller’s ownership would exceed 9.9% of the total PNAC Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to such purchase, unless the Seller, at its sole discretion, waives such 9.9% ownership limitation. The number of PNAC Shares subject to the Forward Purchase Agreement is subject to reduction following a termination of the Forward Purchase Agreement with respect to such shares as described under “Optional Early Termination” in the Forward Purchase Agreement.

 

The Forward Purchase Agreement provides for a prepayment shortfall in an amount in U.S. dollars equal to $1,000,000 (the “Prepayment Shortfall”); provided that the Seller will pay one half (1/2) of the Prepayment Shortfall to the Counterparty on the date specified in the Forward Purchase Agreement (which amount will be netted from the Prepayment Amount) (the “Initial Shortfall”) and, provided the VWAP Price is greater than $6.00 for any 45 trading days during the prior 90 consecutive trading day period and average daily trading value over such period equals at least four times the Future Shortfall at the request of the Counterparty, the other one half (1/2) of the Prepayment Shortfall (the “Future Shortfall”) on the date that is the earlier of (a) the date that the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) declares the Registration Statement (as defined herein) effective (the “Registration Statement Effective Date”), and (b) the initial OET Date (as defined herein). The Seller in its sole discretion may sell Recycled Shares at any time following the Trade Date and at any sales price, without payment by the Seller of any Early Termination Obligation until such time as the proceeds from such sales equal 100% of the Initial Shortfall and 100% of the Future Shortfall actually paid to the Counterparty (as set forth under Shortfall Sales in the Forward Purchase Agreement) (such sales, “Shortfall Sales,” and such shares, “Shortfall Sale Shares”). A sale of Shares is only (a) a “Shortfall Sale,” subject to the terms and conditions herein applicable to Shortfall Sale Shares, when a Shortfall Sale Notice is delivered under the Forward Purchase Agreement, and (b) an Optional Early Termination, subject to the terms and conditions of the forward Purchase Agreement applicable to Terminated Shares, when an OET Notice is delivered under the Forward Purchase Agreement, in each case the delivery of such notice in the sole discretion of the Seller (as further described in the “Optional Early Termination” and “Shortfall Sales” sections in the Forward Purchase Agreement).

 

 

“Shares” means shares of the Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of Prime Number Acquisition I Corp. (Ticker: “PNAC”) prior to the closing of the Business Combination, and, after the closing of the Business Combination, Pubco Ordinary Shares.

 

The Forward Purchase Agreement provides that the Seller will be paid directly an aggregate cash amount (the “Prepayment Amount”) equal to (x) the product of (i) the number of Shares as set forth in a Pricing Date Notice and (ii) the redemption price per share as defined in Section 9.2(a) of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of PNAC, effective as of May 10, 2022, as amended by the Certificate of Amendment effective as of May 17, 2023 and as further amended from time to time (the “Initial Price”), less (y) the Prepayment Shortfall.

 

The Counterparty will pay to the Seller the Prepayment Amount required under the Forward Purchase Agreement directly from the Counterparty’s Trust Account maintained by Wilmington Trust, National Association holding the net proceeds of the sale of the units in the Counterparty’s initial public offering and the sale of private placement shares (the “Trust Account”), no later than the earlier of (a) one Local Business Day after the Closing Date and (b) the date any assets from the Trust Account are disbursed in connection with the Business Combination; except that to the extent that the Prepayment Amount is to be paid from the purchase of Additional Shares (as defined herein) by the Seller, such amount will be netted against such proceeds, with the Seller being able to reduce the purchase price for the Additional Shares by the Prepayment Amount.

 

The Seller will purchase “Additional Shares” from the Counterparty at any date prior to the Valuation Date at the Initial Price, with such number of Shares to be specified in a Pricing Date Notice as Additional Shares subject to 9.9% ownership limitations which may be waived by Seller at its sole discretion; provided that such number of Additional Shares that may be purchased from the Counterparty will not exceed (x) the Maximum Number of Shares, minus (y) the Recycled Shares. For the avoidance of doubt, any Additional Shares purchased by the Seller will be included in the number of Shares under the Forward Purchase Agreement for all purposes.

 

In addition to the Prepayment Amount, the Counterparty will pay directly from the Trust Account, on the date specified in the Forward Purchase Agreement, an amount equal to the product of (x) 150,000 and (y) the Initial Price. The Shares purchased with the Share Consideration (the “Share Consideration Shares”) will be incremental to the Maximum Number of Shares, will not be included in the number of PNAC Shares.

 

Within 30 days after receipt of a written request of the Seller (the “Registration Request”), which request may be made no earlier than the Trade Date (as defined above) and no later than the Valuation Date, the Counterparty will file (at the Counterparty’s sole cost and expense) with the SEC a registration statement registering the resale of all Shares held by the Seller, including the Recycled Shares, Share Consideration Shares and any Additional Shares (the “Registration Statement”), and have the Registration Statement declared effective as soon as practicable after the filing thereof, but no later than the earliest of (i) the 90th calendar day (or 120th calendar day if the SEC notifies the Counterparty that it will “review” the Registration Statement) following the date of the Registration Request and (ii) the 5th Local Business Day after the date the Counterparty is notified (orally or in writing, whichever is earlier) by the Commission that such Registration Statement will not be “reviewed” or will not be subject to further review.

 

Following the Closing, the reset price (the “Reset Price”) will initially be the Initial Price and subject to a $7.00 floor (the “Reset Price Floor”). The Reset Price will be subject to reset on a bi-weekly basis commencing the first week following the thirtieth day after the closing of the Business Combination to be the lowest of (a) the then current Reset Price, (b) the Initial Price and (c) the VWAP Price of the Shares of the prior two weeks; provided that the Reset Price will also be reduced upon a Dilutive Offering Reset immediately upon the occurrence of such Dilutive Offering, which would eliminate the Reset Price Floor if the Dilutive Offering is at an effective price per share less than $7.00. The “Maximum Number of Shares” subject to the Forward Purchase Agreement will initially be the Purchased Amount; upon the occurrence of a Dilutive Offering Reset, a number of Shares equal to the quotient of (i) the Purchased Amount divided by (ii) the quotient of (a) the price of such Dilutive Offering divided by (b) the Initial Price.

 

From time to time and on any date following the Trade Date (any such date, an “OET Date”) and subject to the terms and conditions in the Forward Purchase Agreement, the Seller may, in its absolute discretion, terminate the Transaction in whole or in part by providing written notice to the Counterparty (the “OET Notice”), no later than the next Payment Date following the OET Date, (which will specify the quantity by which the number of Shares will be reduced (such quantity, the “Terminated Shares”)). The effect of an OET Notice will be to reduce the number of Shares by the number of Terminated Shares specified in such OET Notice with effect as of the related OET Date. As of each OET Date, the Counterparty will be entitled to an amount from the Seller, and the Seller will pay to the Counterparty an amount, equal to the product of (x) the number of Terminated Shares and (y) the Reset Price in respect of such OET Date. The payment date may be changed within a quarter at the mutual agreement of the parties.

 

 

The “Valuation Date” will be the earlier to occur of (a) the date that is two (2) years after the date of the closing of the Business Combination (the date of the closing of the Business Combination, the “Closing Date”) pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, (b) the date specified by the Seller in a written notice to be delivered to the Counterparty at the Seller’s discretion (which Valuation Date will not be earlier than the day such notice is effective) after the occurrence of any of (v) a Shortfall Variance Registration Failure, (w) a VWAP Trigger Event, (x) a Delisting Event, (y) a Registration Failure or (z) unless otherwise specified therein, upon any Additional Termination Event, and (c) the date specified by the Seller in a written notice to be delivered to the Counterparty at the Seller’s sole discretion (which Valuation Date will not be earlier than the day such notice is effective). The Valuation Date notice will become effective immediately upon its delivery from the Seller to the Counterparty in accordance with the Forward Purchase Agreement.

 

On the Cash Settlement Payment Date, which is the tenth Local Business Day immediately following the last day of the Valuation Period, the Seller will remit to the Counterparty an amount equal to the Settlement Amount and will not otherwise be required to return to the Counterparty any of the Prepayment Amount and the Counterparty will remit to the Seller the Settlement Amount Adjustment; provided, that if the Settlement Amount less the Settlement Amount Adjustment is a negative number and either clause (x) of Settlement Amount Adjustment applies or the Counterparty has elected pursuant to clause (y) of Settlement Amount Adjustment to pay the Settlement Amount Adjustment in cash, then neither the Seller nor the Counterparty will be liable to the other party for any payment under the Cash Settlement Payment Date section of the Forward Purchase Agreement. The Settlement Amount Adjustment is the cash amount equal to the product of (1) the Maximum Number of Shares as of the Valuation Date multiplied by (2) $1.00.

 

The Seller has agreed to waive any redemption rights with respect to any Recycled Shares in connection with the Business Combination, as well as any redemption rights under PNAC’s Certificate of Incorporation that would require redemption by PNAC. Such waiver may reduce the number of Shares redeemed in connection with the Business Combination, and such reduction could alter the perception of the potential strength of the Business Combination. The Forward Purchase Agreement has been structured, and all activity in connection with such agreement has been undertaken, to comply with the requirements of all tender offer regulations applicable to the Business Combination, including Rule 14e-5 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).

 

The foregoing description of the Forward Purchase Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text the Forward Purchase Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

 

FPA Funding Amount PIPE Subscription Agreement

 

On August 13, 2023, PNAC entered into a subscription agreement (the “FPA Funding Amount PIPE Subscription Agreement”) with the Seller.

 

Pursuant to the FPA Funding PIPE Subscription Agreement, Seller agreed to subscribe for and purchase, and PNAC agreed to issue and sell to Seller, on the Closing Date, an aggregate of up to 2,000,000 PNAC Shares, less the Recycled Shares in connection with the Forward Purchase Agreement.

 

The foregoing description of the FPA Funding PIPE Subscription Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text the FPA Funding PIPE Subscription Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.2 and is incorporated herein by reference.

 

 

Item 3.02.

The disclosures set forth above in Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K are incorporated by reference herein. The Shares that may be issued pursuant to the FPA Funding Amount PIPE Subscription Agreement will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), in reliance on the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and Regulation D promulgated thereunder.

Other Events.

 

Trust Disclosure Redemptions

 

As described in the proxy statement/prospectus included in the Registration Statement on Form F-4 (File No. 333- 271994) that was filed publicly by the PubCo with the SEC in connection with the Business Combination and was declared effective by the SEC on July 25, 2023, PNAC provided holders of PNAC Shares sold in its initial public offering including shares issued upon the partial exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option (the “PNAC Public Shares”) with the opportunity to have all or a portion of their PNAC Public Shares redeemed for cash upon the closing of the Business Combination. As of August 11, 2023, holders of an aggregate of 98.59% or 4,843,109 PNAC Public Shares elected to exercise their right to redeem their PNAC Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the funds in the Trust Account. Based upon the current amount in the Trust Account, PNAC estimates that the per share redemption price, assuming withdrawals from the Trust Account to pay franchise and income taxes owed by PNAC, will be approximately $10.60.

Although each of PNAC, noco-noco and PubCo believes that it has a reasonable basis for each forward-looking statement contained in this communication, each of PNAC, noco-noco and PubCo caution you that these statements are based on a combination of facts and factors currently known and projections of the future, which are inherently uncertain.

Re:		OTC Equity Prepaid Forward Transaction

 

The purpose of this agreement (this “Confirmation”) is to confirm the terms and conditions of the transaction (the “Transaction”) entered into between Seller, PNAC and Target on the Trade Date specified below. The term “Counterparty” refers to PNAC until the Business Combination (as defined below), then to Prime Number Holding Limited, an exempted company limited by shares incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands (“PubCo”), following the Business Combination. In connection with the transactions contemplated by the BCA (as defined below), (i) Prime Number Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of PubCo (“Merger Sub”) shall merge with and into PNAC, with PNAC as the surviving entity and a wholly-owned subsidiary of PubCo (the “Merger”), (ii) Prime Number New Sub Pte.

This Confirmation, together with the Pricing Date Notice(s), constitutes a “Confirmation” and the Transaction constitutes a separate “Transaction” as referred to in the ISDA Form (as defined below).

 

This Confirmation, together with the Pricing Date Notices, evidences a complete binding agreement between Seller, PNAC and Target as to the subject matter and terms of the Transaction to which this Confirmation relates and shall supersede all prior or contemporaneous written or oral communications with respect thereto.

 

The 2006 ISDA Definitions (the “Swap Definitions”) and the 2002 ISDA Equity Derivatives Definitions (the “Equity Definitions”, and with the Swap Definitions, the “Definitions”), each as published by the International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc., are incorporated into this Confirmation. If there is any inconsistency between the Definitions and this Confirmation, this Confirmation governs. If, in relation to the Transaction to which this Confirmation relates, there is any inconsistency between the ISDA Form, this Confirmation (including the Pricing Date Notice), the Swap Definitions and the Equity Definitions, the following will prevail for purposes of such Transaction in the order of precedence indicated: (i) this Confirmation (including the Pricing Date Notice(s)); (ii) the Equity Definitions; (iii) the Swap Definitions, and (iv) the ISDA Form.

 

This Confirmation, together with the Pricing Date Notice, shall supplement, form a part of, and be subject to an agreement in the form of the ISDA 2002 Master Agreement (the “ISDA Form”) as if Seller, Target and Counterparty had executed an agreement in such form (but without any Schedule except as set forth herein under “Schedule Provisions”) on the Trade Date of the Transaction.

The Reset Price will be subject to reset on a bi-weekly basis commencing the first week following the thirtieth day after the closing of the Business Combination to be the lowest of (a) the then-current Reset Price, (b) the Initial Price and (c) the VWAP Price of the Shares of the prior two weeks; provided that the Reset Price will also be reduced upon a Dilutive Offering Reset immediately upon the occurrence of such Dilutive Offering, which would eliminate the Reset Price Floor if the Dilutive Offering is at an effective price per share less than $7.00.
Dilutive Offering Reset:		To the extent the Counterparty closes any agreement to sell or grants any right to reprice, or otherwise disposes of or issues (or announce any offer, sale, grant or any option to purchase or other disposition) any Shares or any securities of the Counterparty or any of its respective subsidiaries (but for the avoidance of doubt, excluding any secondary transfers), which would entitle the holder thereof to acquire or sell on behalf of the Counterparty at any time Shares or other securities, including, without limitation, any debt, preferred stock, preference shares, right, option, warrant or other instrument that is at any time convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for, or otherwise entitles the holder thereof to receive, Shares or other securities, at an effective price per share less than the then existing Reset Price (a “Dilutive Offering”), then the Reset Price shall be modified to equal such reduced price as of such date; provided that, without limiting the foregoing, a Dilutive Offering Reset (for the avoidance of doubt) (i) shall include any Equity Line of Credit or other similar financing (but shall exclude the $150 million Equity Line of Credit entered into on or around the date hereof with ARENA BUSINESS SOLUTIONS GLOBAL SPC II, LTD), (ii) shall not include the grant, issuance or exercise of employee stock options or other equity awards under the Counterparty or Pubco’s equity compensation plans or Shares underlying warrants now outstanding or to be issued in connection with the Business Combination, (iii) shall not include Shares issued in connection with the Business Combination pursuant to the BCA, or (iv) shall not include any Shares or other securities convertible or exercisable for Shares issued pursuant to any other acquisition, merger or similar transaction by the Counterparty or Pubco.

A sale of Shares is only (a) a “Shortfall Sale,” subject to the terms and conditions herein applicable to Shortfall Sale Shares, when a Shortfall Sale Notice is delivered hereunder, and (b) an Optional Early Termination, subject to the terms and conditions herein applicable to Terminated Shares, when an OET Notice (as defined below) is delivered hereunder, in each case the delivery of such notice in the sole discretion of the Seller.

Settlement Terms
Settlement Method Election:		Not Applicable.
Settlement Method:		Cash Settlement.
Settlement Amount:		In the event the Valuation Date is determined by clause (c) of the above section entitled Valuation Date, a cash amount equal to (1) the Number of Shares as of the Valuation Date, multiplied by (2) the closing price of the Shares on the Exchange Business Day immediately preceding the Valuation Date.

 

 

		In all other cases, a cash amount equal to the Number of Shares as of the Valuation Date less the number of Unregistered Shares (as defined below), multiplied by the volume weighted daily VWAP Price over the Valuation Period.     Unless the Valuation Date is determined by clause (c) of the above section entitled “Valuation Date,” in the event that Seller has delivered a Registration Request at least 90 days prior to the Valuation Date (other than where the Valuation Date results from the occurrence of clause (a) in the definition of Registration Failure), Shares which are set forth in Pricing Date Notices that are neither registered for resale under an effective resale Registration Statement nor transferable without any restrictions pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of Section 5 of the Securities Act, including pursuant to Rule 144 (so long as not subject to the requirement for the Counterparty to be in compliance with the current public information required under Rule 144(c)(1) (or Rule 144(i)(2), if applicable) the volume and manner of sale limitations under Rule 144(e), (f) and (g)) (in either event, “Unregistered Shares”) will not be included in the calculation of the Settlement Amount.
Settlement Amount Adjustment:		A cash amount equal to the product of (1) the Maximum Number of Shares as of the Valuation Date multiplied by (2) $1.00. The Settlement Amount Adjustment shall be paid (x) in the event that the expected Settlement Amount determined by the VWAP Price over the 15 scheduled trading days ending on but excluding the Valuation Date exceeds the Settlement Amount Adjustment, in cash (in which case the Settlement Amount Adjustment will be automatically netted from the Settlement Amount and any remaining amount paid in cash), or (y) otherwise, at the option of Counterparty, in cash or Shares (such Shares, the “Maturity Shares”) (other than in the case of a Delisting Event, in which case the Settlement Amount Adjustment must be paid in cash).  In the event that Counterparty is eligible to pay the Settlement Amount Adjustment using Maturity Shares, Counterparty will be deemed to have elected to pay the Settlement Amount Adjustment in Maturity Shares unless Counterparty notifies Seller no later than ten Local Business Days prior to the Valuation Date that Counterparty elects to pay the Settlement Amount Adjustment in cash.  In the event the Settlement Amount Adjustment is paid in Maturity Shares then, on the Valuation Date, Counterparty shall deliver to Seller an initial calculation of the Maturity Shares equal to (a) the Settlement Amount Adjustment divided by (b) the volume weighted daily VWAP Price over the 15 scheduled trading days ending on but excluding the Valuation Date (the “Estimated Maturity Shares”).  The total number of Maturity Shares to be delivered to Seller by Counterparty shall be based on the volume weighted daily VWAP Price over the Valuation Period (the “Final Maturity Shares”). On the Local Business Day following the end of the Valuation Period, (i) if the Final Maturity Shares exceeds the Estimated Maturity Shares, Counterparty shall deliver to Seller an additional number of Maturity Shares equal to such excess, and (ii) if the volume weighted daily VWAP Price over the Valuation Period multiplied by the Estimated Maturity Shares exceeds the Settlement Amount Adjustment, Seller shall deliver to Counterparty a cash amount equal to such excess.  By no later than the start of the Valuation Period, all Maturity Shares shall be registered for resale by the Counterparty under an effective resale Registration Statement pursuant to the Securities Act under which Seller may sell or transfer the Shares and, subject to the receipt of Seller representation letters and such other customary supporting documentation as requested by (and in a form reasonably acceptable to) Counterparty and its counsel, bear no restrictive legend; provided, however, that Counterparty shall not be able to pay the Settlement Amount Adjustment with Maturity Shares if following the issuance of the Maturity Shares, Seller’s ownership of Shares would exceed 9.9% ownership of the total Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to such issuance unless Seller at its sole discretion waives such 9.9% ownership limitation. To the extent that a Delisting Event occurs during the Valuation Period, the VWAP Price for the remainder of the Valuation Period shall be deemed to be zero and any election to pay the Settlement Amount Adjustment with Maturity Shares will automatically revert to a requirement that the Settlement Amount Adjustment be paid in cash such that any further payment that is to be made of the Settlement Amount Adjustment as provided above shall be made by Seller in cash.

 

 

Valuation Period:		The period commencing on the Valuation Date (or if the Valuation Date is not an Exchange Business Day, the first Exchange Business Day thereafter) and ending at 4:00 pm on the Exchange Business Day on which 10% of the total volume traded in the Shares over the period, excluding any volumes traded during the opening and closing auctions, has reached an amount equal to the Number of Shares outstanding as of the Valuation Date plus the Estimated Maturity Shares, less the number of Shares owned by Seller that are neither registered for resale under an effective resale Registration Statement nor eligible for resale under Rule 144 without volume or manner of sale limitations (but only counting such Shares that are eligible for resale under Rule 144 to the extent the Counterparty is in compliance with the requirements of Rule 144(i)(2) for the entire period).
Settlement Currency:		USD.
Cash Settlement Payment Date:		The tenth Local Business Day immediately following the last day of the Valuation Period. For the avoidance of doubt, the Seller will remit to the Counterparty on the Cash Settlement Payment Date an amount equal to the Settlement Amount and will not otherwise be required to return to the Counterparty any of the Prepayment Amount and the Counterparty shall remit to the Seller the Settlement Amount Adjustment; provided, that if the Settlement Amount less the Settlement Amount Adjustment is a negative number and either clause (x) of Settlement Amount Adjustment applies or the Counterparty has elected pursuant to clause (y) of Settlement Amount Adjustment to pay the Settlement Amount Adjustment in cash, then neither the Seller nor the Counterparty shall be liable to the other party for any payment under this section.
Excess Dividend Amount:		Ex Amount.
Optional Early Termination:		From time to time and on any date following the Trade Date (any such date, an “OET Date”) and subject to the terms and conditions below, Seller may, in its absolute discretion, terminate the Transaction in whole or in part by providing written notice to Counterparty (the “OET Notice”), no later than the next Payment Date following the OET Date, (which shall specify the quantity by which the Number of Shares shall be reduced (such quantity, the “Terminated Shares”)); provided that “Terminated Shares” includes only such quantity of Shares by which the Number of Shares is to be reduced and included in an OET Notice and does not include any other Share sales, Shortfall Sale Shares or sales of Shares that are designated as Shortfall Sales (which designation can be made only up to the amount of Shortfall Sale Proceeds), any Share Consideration Shares sales or any other Shares, whether or not sold, which Shares will not be included in any OET Notice or included in the definition, or when calculating the number, of Terminated Shares. The effect of an OET Notice shall be to reduce the Number of Shares by the number of Terminated Shares specified in such OET Notice with effect as of the related OET Date. As of each OET Date, Counterparty shall be entitled to an amount from Seller, and the Seller shall pay to Counterparty an amount, equal to the product of (x) the number of Terminated Shares and (y) the Reset Price in respect of such OET Date (an “Early Termination Obligation”), except that no such amount will be due to Counterparty upon any Shortfall Sale; provided, that Seller shall pay the Early Termination Obligation to the accounts and in the amounts as directed by Counterparty. The remainder of the Transaction, if any, shall continue in accordance with its terms. The Early Termination Obligation shall be payable by Seller on the first Local Business Day following the date of delivery by Seller of the OET Notice. For the avoidance of doubt, no other amounts as may be set forth in Sections 16.1 and 18.1 of the Swap Definitions shall be due to Counterparty upon an Optional Early Termination.  The payment date may be changed within a quarter at the mutual agreement of the parties.

 

 

Shortfall Sales:

From time to time and on any date following the Trade Date (any such date, a “Shortfall Sale Date”) and subject to the terms and conditions below, Seller may, in its absolute discretion, at any sales price, sell Shortfall Sale Shares, and in connection with such sales, Seller shall provide written notice to Counterparty (the “Shortfall Sale Notice”) no later than the later of (a) the fifth Local Business Day following the Shortfall Sales Date and (b) the first Payment Date after the Shortfall Sales Date, specifying the quantity of the Shortfall Sale Shares and the allocation of the Shortfall Sale Proceeds. Seller shall not have any Early Termination Obligation in connection with any Shortfall Sales. The Counterparty covenants and agrees for a period of at least sixty Local Business Days (commencing on the Prepayment Date or if an earlier Registration Request is submitted by Seller on the Registration Statement Effective Date) not to issue, sell or offer or agree to sell any Shares, or securities or debt that is convertible, exercisable or exchangeable into Shares, including under any existing or future Equity Line of Credit (other than issuance pursuant to the $150 million Equity Line of Credit entered into on or around the date hereof with ARENA BUSINESS SOLUTIONS GLOBAL SPC II, LTD), until the Shortfall Sales equal the Prepayment Shortfall; provided, however, that nothing in the foregoing covenant shall prohibit (i) the grant, issuance or exercise of employee stock options or other equity awards under the Counterparty’s equity compensation plans or (ii) the issuance of any securities issued or assumed in connection with the Business Combination or (iii) repricing of Counterparty’s warrants in connection with the closing of the Business Combination, and (v) the issuance of any Shares or other securities convertible or exercisable for Shares issued pursuant to any other acquisition, merger or similar transaction by the Counterparty if the Shares or other securities issued in the transaction are restricted from transfer pursuant to a market standard lock-up agreement for a period of one year from the date of issuance.   Unless and until the proceeds from Shortfall Sales equal 100% of the Prepayment Shortfall, in the event that the product of (x) the difference between (i) the number of Shares as specified in the Pricing Date Notice(s), less (ii) any Shortfall Sale Shares as of such measurement time, multiplied by (y) the VWAP Price, is less than (z) the difference between (i) the Prepayment Shortfall, less (ii) the proceeds from Shortfall Sales as of such measurement time (the “Shortfall Variance”), then the Counterparty, as liquidated damages in respect of such Shortfall Variance, at its option shall within five (5) Local Business Days either:   (A) Pay in cash an amount equal to the Shortfall Variance; or

 

 

(B) Issue and deliver to Seller such number of additional Shares that are equal to (1) the Shortfall Variance, divided by (2) 90% of the VWAP Price (the “Shortfall Variance Shares”).   In the event that the Counterparty issues and delivers to Seller Shortfall Variance Shares, within thirty calendar days of such issuance and delivery, Counterparty shall use its reasonable best efforts to file (at Counterparty’s sole cost and expense) with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) a registration statement registering the resale of all shares held by the Seller, including the Recycled Shares (the “Shortfall Variance Registration Statement”), and have the Shortfall Variance Registration Statement declared effective as soon as practicable after the filing thereof, but no later than the earliest of (i) the 60th calendar day (or 105th calendar day if the Commission notifies the Counterparty that it will “review” the Shortfall Variance Registration Statement) following the issuance and delivery of the Shortfall Variance Shares and (ii) the 5th Local Business Day after the date the Counterparty is notified (orally or in writing, whichever is earlier) by the Commission that such Shortfall Variance Registration Statement will not be “reviewed” or will not be subject to further review. Upon notification by the Commission that the Shortfall Variance Registration Statement has been declared effective by the Commission, within two Local Business Days thereafter, the Counterparty shall file the final prospectus under Rule 424 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended containing a “plan of distribution” reasonably agreeable to Seller. Counterparty shall not identify Seller as a statutory underwriter in the Registration Statement unless requested by the Commission. The Counterparty will use its reasonable best efforts to keep the Shortfall Variance Registration Statement covering the resale of the shares as described above continuously effective (except for customary blackout periods, up to twice per year and for a total of up to 15 calendar days (and not more than 10 calendar days in an occurrence), if and when the Counterparty is in possession of material non-public information the disclosure of which, in the good faith judgment of the Counterparty’s board of directors, would be prejudicial, and the Counterparty agrees to promptly notify Seller of any such blackout determination) until all such shares have been sold or may be transferred without any restrictions including the requirement for the Counterparty to be in compliance with the current public information required under Rule 144(c)(1) (or Rule 144(i)(2) or the volume and manner of sale limitations under Rule 144 under the Securities Act; provided that Counterparty covenants and agrees to make all necessary filings, amendments, supplements and submissions in furtherance of the foregoing, including to register all of Seller’s Shares for resale; provided that it shall be a (“Shortfall Variance Registration Failure”) if (a) the Shortfall Variance Registration Statement covering all of the shares described above in this section is not declared effective after the 60th calendar day (or 105th calendar day if the Commission notifies the Counterparty that it will “review” the Shortfall Variance Registration Statement) after the issuance and delivery of the Shortfall Variance Shares) or (b) the Shortfall Variance Registration Statement after it is declared effective ceases to be continuously effective (subject to the blackout periods as indicated above) as set forth in the preceding sentence for more than 15 consecutive calendar days. Seller will promptly deliver customary representations and other documentation reasonably acceptable to the Counterparty, its counsel and/or its transfer agent in connection with the Shortfall Variance Registration Statement, including those related to selling shareholders and to respond to comments by the staff of the Commission. If requested by Seller, the Counterparty shall within five (5) Local Business Days of receipt of such request, subject to receipt of a legal opinion of Counterparty’s counsel, instruct its transfer agent to remove any restrictive legend with respect to transfers under the Securities Act from any and all Shares held by Seller if (1) the Shortfall Variance Registration Statement is and continues to be effective under the Securities Act, (2) such Shortfall Variance Shares are sold or transferred pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act (subject to all applicable requirements of Rule 144 being met), or (3) such Shortfall Variance Shares are eligible for sale under Rule 144, without the requirement for the Counterparty to be in compliance with the current public information required under Rule 144(c)(1) (or Rule 144(i)(2), if applicable) as to the Shortfall Variance Shares and without volume or manner-of-sale restrictions; provided that Seller shall have timely provided customary representations and other documentation reasonably acceptable to the Counterparty, its counsel and/or its transfer agent in connection therewith. Any fees (with respect to the transfer agent, Counterparty’s counsel or otherwise) associated with the issuance of any legal opinion required by the Counterparty’s transfer agent or the removal of such legend shall be borne by the Counterparty..

 

 

Any Shortfall Variance Shares shall constitute Shortfall Shares, and the sale of such Shortfall Variance Shares after the Shortfall Variance Registration Statement is declared effective by the Commission shall be a Shortfall Sale. If the Shortfall Variance has not been paid in cash by the Counterparty, and after the sale of all Shortfall Variance Shares, the proceeds from all Shortfall Sales, including the Shortfall Variance Shares, is less than 100% of the Prepayment Shortfall, then there will be another Shortfall Variance, calculated in accordance with this provision, and the Counterparty shall address such Shortfall Variance as provided for by this provision. This shall continue until such time as the proceeds from all Shortfall Sales equal 100% of the Prepayment Shortfall or the Counterparty shall have paid any Shortfall Variance in cash.   With respect to the forgoing and any issuance of Shortfall Variance Shares, the Counterparty shall not issue any Shortfall Variance Shares pursuant to this provision to the extent that after giving effect thereto, the aggregate number of Shares that would be issued pursuant to this provision would exceed 19.99% of the Shares that are issued and outstanding immediately prior to such issuance, which number of shares shall be (i) reduced, on a share-for-share basis, by the number of Shares issued or issuable pursuant to any transaction or series of transactions that may be aggregated with the transactions contemplated hereby under applicable rules of the Nasdaq and (ii) appropriately adjusted for any reorganization, recapitalization, non-cash dividend, stock split or other similar transaction that occurs after the date of this Confirmation (such maximum number of shares, the “Exchange Cap”), unless and until the Counterparty elects to solicit shareholder approval of the issuance of the Shortfall Variance Shares as contemplated hereby, and the shareholders of the Counterparty have in fact approved the issuance of the Shortfall Variance Shares as contemplated hereby in accordance with the applicable rules of the Nasdaq. In the event that there is an Exchange Cap, if the Counterparty does not elect to solicit shareholder approval and obtain such shareholder approval in accordance with the applicable rules of the Nasdaq, then the Counterparty will pay the Shortfall Variance in cash.

 

 

Share Consideration:		In addition to the Prepayment Amount, Counterparty shall pay directly from the Trust Account, on the Prepayment Date, an amount equal to the product of (x) 150,000 and (y) the Initial Price. The Shares purchased with the Share Consideration (the “Share Consideration Shares”) shall be incremental to the Maximum Number of Shares, shall not be included in the Number of Shares in this Transaction, and the Seller and the Share Consideration Shares shall be free and clear of all obligations with respect to the Seller and such Share Consideration Shares in connection with this Confirmation.
Share Registration:		Within 30 days after receipt of a written request of Seller (the “Registration Request”), which request may be made no earlier than the Trade Date (as defined above) and no later than the Valuation Date, Counterparty shall file (at Counterparty’s sole cost and expense) with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) a registration statement registering the resale of all shares held by the Seller, including the Recycled Shares, Share Consideration Shares and any Additional Shares (the “Registration Statement”), and have the Registration Statement declared effective as soon as practicable after the filing thereof, but no later than the earliest of (i) the 90th calendar day (or 120th calendar day if the Commission notifies the Counterparty that it will “review” the Registration Statement) following the date of the Registration Request (provided, however, that in the event the Commission issues any written rules related to special purpose acquisition companies that would reasonably effect the timing of the effectiveness of the Registration Statement and such rules become effective following the date hereof and prior to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, such number of calendar days in this subsection (i) shall be changed to the 120th calendar day (or 180th calendar day if the Commission notifies the Counterparty that it will “review” the Registration Statement) and (ii) the 5th Local Business Day after the date the Counterparty is notified (orally or in writing, whichever is earlier) by the Commission that such Registration Statement will not be “reviewed” or will not be subject to further review (each respective date as described above, the “Effectiveness Deadline”); provided, that (x) if such day falls on a Saturday, Sunday or other day that the Commission is closed for business, the Effectiveness Deadline shall be extended to the next Business Day on which the Commission is open for business and (y) if the Commission is closed for operations due to a government shutdown, the Effectiveness Deadline shall be extended by the same number of Business Days that the Commission remains closed for. Upon notification by the Commission that the Registration Statement has been declared effective by the Commission, within two Local Business Days thereafter, the Counterparty shall file the final prospectus under Rule 424 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended containing a “plan of distribution” reasonably agreeable to Seller.

 

 

Counterparty shall not identify Seller as a statutory underwriter in the Registration Statement unless requested by the Commission. In the event that the SEC asks that Seller be identified as a statutory underwriter, Seller shall have the option, in its sole discretion and without any breach of this provision or without any Registration Failure deemed to have occur, to remove its shares from the Registration Statement. The Counterparty will use its reasonable best efforts to keep the Registration Statement covering the resale of the shares as described above continuously effective (except for customary blackout periods, up to three times per year and for a total of up to 90 calendar days (and not more than 45 calendar days in an occurrence), if and when the Counterparty is in possession of material non-public information the disclosure of which, in the good faith judgment of the Counterparty’s board of directors, would be prejudicial, and the Counterparty agrees to promptly notify Seller of any such blackout determination) until all such shares have been sold or may be transferred without any restrictions, including the requirement for the Counterparty to be in compliance with the current public information required under Rule 144(c)(1) (or Rule 144(i)(2), if applicable) or the volume and manner of sale limitations under Rule 144(e), (f) and (g) under the Securities Act; provided that Counterparty covenants and agrees to make all necessary filings, amendments, supplements and submissions in furtherance of the foregoing, including to register all of Seller’s Shares for resale; provided further, that it shall be a “Registration Failure” if (a) the Registration Statement covering all of the shares described above in this section is not declared effective after the 90th calendar day (or 120th calendar day if the Commission notifies the Counterparty that it will “review” the Registration Statement) after the Trade Date (provided, however, that in the event the Commission issues any written rules related to special purpose acquisition companies that would reasonably effect the timing of the effectiveness of the Registration Statement and such rules become effective following the date hereof and prior to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, such number of calendar days in this subsection (i) shall be changed to the 120th calendar day (or 180th calendar day if the Commission notifies the Counterparty that it will “review” the Registration Statement) and or (b) the Registration Statement after it is declared effective ceases to be continuously effective (subject to the blackout periods as indicated above) as set forth in the preceding sentence for more than 120 consecutive calendar days; provided, that (x) if such day falls on a Saturday, Sunday or other day that the Commission is closed for business, the Effectiveness Deadline shall be extended to the next Business Day on which the Commission is open for business and (y) if the Commission is closed for operations due to a government shutdown, the Effectiveness Deadline shall be extended by the same number of Business Days that the Commission remains closed for. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Registration Failure will be deemed to have occurred with respect to any Shares that may be transferred at such time under Rule 144 (without volume or manner of sale limitations), so long as the Counterparty is in compliance with the requirements of Rule 144 (c)(1) and (i)(2), if applicable.   Seller will promptly deliver customary representations and other documentation reasonably acceptable to the Counterparty, its counsel and/or its transfer agent in connection with the Registration Statement, including those related to selling shareholders, and to respond to SEC comments. If requested by Seller, the Counterparty shall remove or instruct its transfer agent to remove any restrictive legend with respect to transfers under the Securities Act from any and all Shares held by Seller if (1) the Registration Statement is and continues to be effective under the Securities Act, (2) such Shares are sold or transferred pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act (subject to all applicable requirements of Rule 144 being met), or (3) such Shares are eligible for sale under Rule 144, without the requirement for the Counterparty to be in compliance with the current public information required under Rule 144(c)(1) or the volume and manner of sale limitations under Rule 144(e), (f) and (g) under the Securities Act; provided in the case of (1), (2) or (3) that Seller shall have timely provided customary representations and other documentation reasonably acceptable to the Counterparty, its counsel and/or its transfer agent in connection therewith. Any reasonable and documented fees (with respect to the transfer agent, Counterparty’s counsel or otherwise) associated with the issuance of any legal opinion required by the Counterparty’s transfer agent or the removal of such legend shall be borne by the Counterparty. If a legend is no longer required pursuant to the foregoing, the Counterparty will, no later than five Local Business Days following the delivery by Seller to the Counterparty or the transfer agent (with notice to the Counterparty) of customary representations and other documentation reasonably acceptable to the Counterparty, its counsel and/or its transfer agent, remove the restrictive legend related to the book entry account holding the Shares and make a new, unlegended book entry for the Shares.

 

 

Notwithstanding the registration obligations set forth in this Share Registration section, in the event the Commission informs the Counterparty that all of the Shares cannot, as a result of the application of Rule 415, be registered for resale as a secondary offering on a single registration statement, the Counterparty agrees to promptly (i) inform Seller and use its commercially reasonable efforts to file amendments to the Registration Statement as required by the Commission and/or (ii) withdraw the Registration Statement and file a new registration statement (a “New Registration Statement”), on Form F-3, or if Form F-3 is not then available to the Counterparty for such registration statement, on such other form available to register for resale the Shares as a secondary offering; provided, however, that prior to filing such amendment or New Registration Statement, the Counterparty shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to advocate with the Commission for the registration of all of the Shares in accordance with any publicly-available written or oral guidance, comments, requirements or requests of the Commission staff (the “SEC Guidance”). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any SEC Guidance sets forth a limitation of the number of securities permitted to be registered on a particular Registration Statement as a secondary offering (and notwithstanding that the Counterparty used commercially reasonable efforts to advocate with the Commission for the registration of all or a greater number of the Shares), unless otherwise directed in writing by a selling shareholder as to its securities to register fewer securities, the number of securities to be registered on such Registration Statement will be reduced on a pro rata basis among all selling shareholders named in such Registration Statement (except that such pro rata reduction shall not apply with respect to any securities the registration of which is necessary to satisfy applicable listing rules of a national securities exchange). In the event the Counterparty amends the Registration Statement or files a New Registration Statement, as the case may be, under clauses (i) or (ii) above, the Counterparty will use its commercially reasonable efforts to file with the Commission, as promptly as allowed by Commission or SEC Guidance provided to the Counterparty or to registrants of securities in general, one or more registration statements on Form F-3 or such other form available to register for resale that portion of Shares that were not registered for resale on the Registration Statement, as amended, or the New Registration Statement, and to use commercially reasonable efforts to seek effectiveness of the New Registration Statement, but in any event no later than thirty (30) calendar days after the filing of such Registration Statement (the “Additional Effectiveness Deadline”); provided, that the Additional Effectiveness Deadline shall be extended to ninety (90) calendar days (or one hundred twenty (120) calendar days if the Commission notifies the Counterparty that it will “review” the New Registration Statement) if such New Registration Statement is reviewed by, and comments thereto are provided from, the Commission; provided, further, that the Counterparty shall have such Registration Statement declared effective within five (5) Business Days after the date the Counterparty is notified (orally or in writing, whichever is earlier) by the staff of the Commission that such New Registration Statement will not be “reviewed” or will not be subject to further review; provided, further, that (x) if such day falls on a Saturday, Sunday or other day that the Commission is closed for business, the Additional Effectiveness Deadline shall be extended to the next Business Day on which the Commission is open for business and (y) if the Commission is closed for operations due to a government shutdown, the Additional Effectiveness Deadline shall be extended by the same number of Business Days that the Commission remains closed for. For the avoidance of doubt, any such amendments to or withdrawal of the Registration Statement or filing of the New Registration Statement shall not constitute a Registration Failure.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Counterparty acknowledges and agrees that any such amendment, modification, waiver or termination shall be made in good faith and not as part of a plan or scheme to evade compliance with the federal securities laws, including without limitation the prohibition on manipulative and deceptive devises under the Exchange Act and no such amendment, modification or waiver shall be made at any time at which Counterparty or any officer, director, manager or similar person of Counterparty is aware of any material non-public information regarding Counterparty or the Shares.

 

 

(b)

Repurchase Notices. Counterparty shall, on any day on which Counterparty effects any repurchase of Shares (other than in connection with a Counterparty equity compensation program (e.g., to fund taxes in connection with vested RSUs)), promptly give Seller a written notice of such repurchase (a “Repurchase Notice”), if following such repurchase, the number of outstanding Shares as determined on such day is (i) less than the number of Shares outstanding that would result in the percentage of total Shares outstanding represented by the number of Shares underlying the Transaction increasing by 0.10% (in the case of the first such notice) or (ii) thereafter more than the number of Shares that would need to be repurchased to result in the percentage of total Shares outstanding represented by the number of Shares underlying the Transaction increasing by a further 0.10% less than the number of Shares included in the immediately preceding Repurchase Notice; provided that Counterparty agrees that this information does not constitute material non-public information; provided further if this information shall be material non-public information, it shall publicly disclosed immediately. Counterparty agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Seller and its affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees, affiliates, advisors, agents and controlling persons (each, an “Indemnified Person”) from and against any and all losses (including losses relating to Seller’s hedging activities as a consequence of remaining or becoming a Section 16 “insider” following the closing of the Business Combination, including without limitation, any forbearance from hedging activities or cessation of hedging activities and any losses in connection therewith with respect to the Transaction), claims, damages, judgments, liabilities and reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable and documented attorney’s fees), joint or several, which an Indemnified Person may become subject to, as a result of Counterparty’s failure to provide Seller with a Repurchase Notice on the day and in the manner specified in this paragraph, and to reimburse, within thirty days, upon written request, each of such Indemnified Persons for any reasonable and documented legal or other expenses incurred in connection with investigating, preparing for, providing testimony or other evidence in connection with or defending any of the foregoing; provided, however, for the avoidance of doubt, Counterparty has no indemnification or other obligations with respect to Seller becoming a Section 16 “insider” prior to the closing of the Business Combination. If any suit, action, proceeding (including any governmental or regulatory investigation), claim or demand shall be brought or asserted against the Indemnified Person as a result of Counterparty’s failure to provide Seller with a Repurchase Notice in accordance with this paragraph, such Indemnified Person shall promptly notify Counterparty in writing, and Counterparty, upon request of the Indemnified Person, shall retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person to represent the Indemnified Person and any others Counterparty may designate in such proceeding and shall pay the fees and expenses of such counsel related to such proceeding. Counterparty shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding contemplated by this paragraph that is effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, Counterparty agrees to indemnify any Indemnified Person from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. Counterparty shall not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Person, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding contemplated by this paragraph that is in respect of which any Indemnified Person is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Person, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Person from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding on terms reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Person. If the indemnification provided for in this paragraph is unavailable to an Indemnified Person or insufficient in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein, then Counterparty hereunder, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Person thereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Person as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities. The remedies provided for in this paragraph are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies which may otherwise be available to any Indemnified Person at law or in equity. The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this paragraph shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of the termination of the Transaction.

 

(c)

Transfer or Assignment. The rights and duties under this Confirmation may not be transferred or assigned by any party hereto without the prior written consent of the other party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, subject to the immediately following sentence. If at any time following the closing of the Business Combination at which (A) the Section 16 Percentage exceeds 9.9%, or (B) the Share Amount exceeds the Applicable Share Limit, if any applies (any such condition described in clause (A) or (B), an “Excess Ownership Position”), Seller is unable to effect a transfer or assignment of a portion of the Transaction to a third party on pricing terms reasonably acceptable to Seller and within a time period reasonably acceptable to Seller such that no Excess Ownership Position exists, then Seller may designate any Local Business Day as an Early Termination Date with respect to a portion of the Transaction (the “Terminated Portion”), such that following such partial termination no Excess Ownership Position exists. In the event that Seller so designates an Early Termination Date with respect to a portion of the Transaction, a portion of the Shares with respect to the Transaction shall be delivered to Counterparty as if the Early Termination Date was the Valuation Date in respect of a Transaction having terms identical to the Transaction and a Number of Shares equal to the number of Shares underlying the Terminated Portion. The “Section 16 Percentage” as of any day is the fraction, expressed as a percentage, as determined by Seller, (A) the numerator of which is the number of Shares that Seller and each person subject to aggregation of Shares with Seller under Section 13 or Section 16 of the Exchange Act and rules promulgated thereunder and all persons who may form a “group” (within the meaning of Rule 13d-5(b)(1) of the Exchange Act) with Seller directly or indirectly beneficially own (as defined under Section 13 or Section 16 of the Exchange Act and rules promulgated thereunder) (the “Seller Group” ) and (B) the denominator of which is the number of Shares outstanding.

 

 

The “Share Amount” as of any day is the number of Shares that Seller and any person whose ownership position would be aggregated with that of Seller and any group (however designated) of which Seller is a member (Seller or any such person or group, a “Seller Person”) under any law, rule, regulation, regulatory order or organizational documents or contracts of Counterparty that are, in each case, applicable to ownership of Shares (“Applicable Restrictions”), owns, beneficially owns, constructively owns, controls, holds the power to vote or otherwise meets a relevant definition of ownership under any Applicable Restriction, as determined by Seller in its sole discretion.   The “Applicable Share Limit” means a number of Shares equal to (A) the minimum number of Shares that could give rise to reporting (other than on Schedule 13D or 13G) or registration obligations or other requirements (including obtaining prior approval from any person or entity) of a Seller Person, or could result in an adverse effect on a Seller Person, under any Applicable Restriction, as determined by Seller in its sole discretion, minus (B) 0.1% of the number of Shares outstanding.

 

(d)

Indemnification. Counterparty agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnified Person from and against any and all losses (but not including financial losses to an Indemnified Person relating to the economic terms of the Transaction provided that the Counterparty performs its obligations under this Confirmation in accordance with its terms), claims, damages and liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees), joint or several, incurred by or asserted against such Indemnified Person arising out of, in connection with, or relating to, and to reimburse, within thirty days, upon written request, each of such Indemnified Persons for any reasonable legal or other expenses incurred in connection with investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever, whether arising out of any action between any of the Indemnified Parties and the Counterparty or between any of the Indemnified Parties and any third party, or otherwise) to which they or any of them may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any other statute or at common law or otherwise or under the laws of foreign countries, arising out of or based upon the Transaction, including the execution or delivery of this Confirmation, the performance by Counterparty of its obligations under the Transaction, any material breach of any covenant, representation or warranty made by Counterparty or Target in this Confirmation or the ISDA Form, regulatory filings and submissions made by or on behalf of the Counterparty related to the Transaction (other than as relates to any information provided in writing by or on behalf of Seller or its affiliates), or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Registration Statement or any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any registration statement, press release, filings or other document, or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. Counterparty will not be liable under the foregoing indemnification provision to the extent that any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense is related to the manner in which Seller sells, or arising out of any sales by Seller of, any Shares, including the Recycled Shares and the Additional Shares or found in a nonappealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from Seller’s material breach of any covenant, representation or other obligation in this Confirmation or the ISDA Form or from Seller’s willful misconduct, bad faith or gross negligence in performing the services that are subject of the Transaction. If for any reason the foregoing indemnification is unavailable to any Indemnified Person or insufficient to hold harmless any Indemnified Person, then Counterparty shall contribute, to the maximum extent permitted by law, to the amount paid or payable by the Indemnified Person as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability. In addition (and in addition to any other Reimbursement of Legal Fees and other Expenses contemplated by this Confirmation), Counterparty will reimburse any Indemnified Person for all reasonable, out-of-pocket, expenses (including reasonable counsel fees and expenses) as they are incurred in connection with the investigation of, preparation for or defense or settlement of any pending or threatened claim or any action, suit or proceeding arising therefrom, whether or not such Indemnified Person is a party thereto and whether or not such claim, action, suit or proceeding is initiated or brought by or on behalf of Counterparty. Counterparty also agrees that no Indemnified Person shall have any liability to Counterparty or any person asserting claims on behalf of or in right of Counterparty in connection with or as a result of any matter referred to in this Confirmation except to the extent that any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses incurred by Counterparty result from such Indemnified Person’s breach of any covenant, representation or other obligation in this Confirmation or the ISDA Form or from the gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith of the Indemnified Person or breach of any U.S. federal or state securities laws or the rules, regulations or applicable interpretations of the Commission. The provisions of this paragraph shall survive the completion of the Transaction contemplated by this Confirmation and any assignment and/or delegation of the Transaction made pursuant to the ISDA Form or this Confirmation shall inure to the benefit of any permitted assignee of Seller.

Ltd., a Singapore private company limited by shares and a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of PubCo (“New SubCo”), NOCO-NOCO PTE. LTD., a Singapore private company limited by shares (“noco-noco” or the “Target”), and certain shareholders of noco-noco collectively holding a controlling interest (together with other shareholders of noco-noco subsequently joining the transactions, the “Selling Shareholders”), pursuant to which PNAC is proposing to enter into a business combination with noco-noco involving a merger and a share exchange, among which: (i) Merger Sub shall merge with and into PNAC, with PNAC as the surviving entity and a wholly-owned subsidiary of PubCo (the “Merger”), (ii) New SubCo shall acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of noco-noco from the Selling Shareholders, and in exchange, PubCo shall issue to the Selling Shareholders the ordinary shares of PubCo, with noco-noco becoming a subsidiary of New SubCo and an indirect subsidiary of PubCo (the “Share Exchange”, and together with the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement, the “Business Combination” or the “Transactions”). Upon the consummation of the Business Combination, each of PNAC and noco-noco would become a subsidiary of PubCo, and PNAC stockholders and the Selling Shareholders would receive ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share, of PubCo (“PubCo Ordinary Shares”) as consideration and become the shareholders of PubCo.

WHEREAS, in connection with the Transactions and a forward purchase agreement entered into between the Company and Subscriber in connection therewith (the “Forward Purchase Agreement”), Subscriber desires to subscribe for and purchase from the Company, prior to the Valuation Date, as defined in the Forward Purchase Agreement, as Additional Shares, as defined in the Forward Purchase Agreement, that number of shares of Common Stock up to the Maximum Number of Shares as set forth in the Forward Purchase Agreement (the “Subscribed Shares”) for a purchase price of the Initial Price (as defined in the Forward Purchase Agreement) per share (the “Per Share Price” and the aggregate of such Per Share Price for all Subscribed Shares being referred to herein as the “Purchase Price”), less the number of Recycled Shares, as defined in the Forward Purchase Agreement, provided, however, that Subscriber shall not be required to purchase an amount of Shares such that following the issuance of Shares, its ownership would exceed 9.9% ownership of the total Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to such issuance unless Subscriber at its sole discretion waives such 9.9% ownership limitation, and the Company desires to issue and sell to Subscriber the Subscribed Shares in consideration of the payment of the Purchase Price by or on behalf of Subscriber to the Company, all on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein; and

Section 5.      Registration of Subscribed Shares.

 

(a)           Subject to Section 5(c) and the Forward Purchase Agreement, the Company agrees that, within forty-five calendar days following the Closing Date, the Company will file with the Commission (at the Company’s sole cost and expense) a registration statement registering the resale of the Subscribed Shares (the “Registration Statement”), and the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to have the Registration Statement declared effective as soon as practicable after the filing thereof, but in any event no later than ninety calendar days after the Closing Date (the “Effectiveness Deadline”); provided, that the Effectiveness Deadline shall be extended to one hundred twenty calendar days after the Closing Date if the Registration Statement is reviewed by, and comments thereto are provided from, the Commission; provided, further that the Company shall have the Registration Statement declared effective within five Business Days after the date the Company is notified (orally or in writing, whichever is earlier) by the staff of the Commission that the Registration Statement will not be “reviewed” or will not be subject to further review; provided, further, that (i) if the Effectiveness Deadline falls on a Saturday, Sunday or other day that the Commission is closed for business, the Effectiveness Deadline shall be extended to the next Business Day on which the Commission is open for business and (ii) if the Commission is closed for operations due to a government shutdown, the Effectiveness Deadline shall be extended by the same number of Business Days that the Commission remains closed for. Unless otherwise agreed to in writing by Subscriber prior to the filing of the Registration Statement, Subscriber shall not be identified as a statutory underwriter in the Registration Statement; provided, that if the Commission requests that Subscriber be identified as a statutory underwriter in the Registration Statement, Subscriber will have the opportunity to withdraw from the Registration Statement upon its prompt written request to the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Commission prevents the Company from including any or all of the shares proposed to be registered under the Registration Statement due to limitations on the use of Rule 415 of the Securities Act for the resale of the Subscribed Shares by the applicable stockholders or otherwise, such Registration Statement shall register for resale such number of Subscribed Shares which is equal to the maximum number of Subscribed Shares as is permitted by the Commission. In such event, the number of Subscribed Shares or other shares to be registered for each selling stockholder named in the Registration Statement shall be reduced pro rata, unless otherwise directed in writing by a selling stockholder as to its securities to register fewer securities, among all such selling stockholders (except that such pro rata reduction shall not apply with respect to any securities the registration of which is necessary to satisfy applicable listing rules of a national securities exchange) and as promptly as practicable after being permitted to register additional shares under Rule 415 under the Securities Act, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to amend the Registration Statement or file one or more new Registration Statement(s) (such amendment or new Registration Statement shall also be deemed to be a “Registration Statement” hereunder) to register such additional Subscribed Shares and cause such amendment or Registration Statement(s) to become effective as promptly as practicable after the filing thereof, but in any event no later than thirty calendar days after the filing of such Registration Statement (the “Additional Effectiveness Deadline”); provided, that the Additional Effectiveness Deadline shall be extended to ninety calendar days (or one hundred twenty calendar days if the Commission notifies the Company that it will “review” such Registration Statement) after the filing of such Registration Statement if such Registration Statement is reviewed by, and comments thereto are provided from, the Commission; provided, further, that the Company shall have such Registration Statement declared effective within five Business Days after the date the Company is notified (orally or in writing, whichever is earlier) by the staff of the Commission that such Registration Statement will not be “reviewed” or will not be subject to further review; provided, further, that (i) if such day falls on a Saturday, Sunday or other day that the Commission is closed for business, the Additional Effectiveness Deadline shall be extended to the next Business Day on which the Commission is open for business and (ii) if the Commission is closed for operations due to a government shutdown, the Effectiveness Deadline shall be extended by the same number of Business Days that the Commission remains closed for. Any failure by the Company to file a Registration Statement by the Additional Effectiveness Deadline or Additional Effectiveness Deadline shall not otherwise relieve the Company of its obligations to file or effect a Registration Statement as set forth in this Section 5.

 

 

(b)           The Company agrees that, except for such times as the Company is permitted hereunder to suspend the use of the prospectus forming part of a Registration Statement, the Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Registration Statement to remain effective with respect to Subscriber, including to prepare and file any post-effective amendment to such Registration Statement or a supplement to the related prospectus such that the prospectus will not include any untrue statement or a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, until the earliest to occur of (i) the date on which Subscriber ceases to hold any Subscribed Shares issued pursuant to this Subscription Agreement and (ii) the first date on which Subscriber can sell all of its Subscribed Shares issued pursuant to this Subscription Agreement (or shares received in exchange therefor) under Rule 144 of the Securities Act without limitation as to the manner of sale or the amount of such securities that may be sold (the earliest of clauses (i) and (ii), the “End Date”). Prior to the End Date, the Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of any Registration Statement as soon as reasonably practicable; file all reports, and provide all customary and reasonable cooperation, necessary to enable Subscriber to resell Subscribed Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement; qualify the Subscribed Shares for listing on the applicable stock exchange on which the Common Stock is then listed and update or amend the Registration Statement as necessary to include Subscribed Shares. The Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to (A) for so long as Subscriber holds Subscribed Shares, make and keep public information available (as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144) and file with the Commission in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Exchange Act so long as the Company remains subject to such requirements to enable Subscriber to resell the Subscribed Shares pursuant to Rule 144, (B) at the reasonable request of Subscriber, deliver all the necessary documentation to cause the Company’s transfer agent to remove all restrictive legends from any Subscribed Shares being sold under the Registration Statement or pursuant to Rule 144 at the time of sale of the Subscribed Shares, or that may be sold by Subscriber without restriction under Rule 144, including without limitation, any volume and manner of sale restrictions, and (C) cause its legal counsel to deliver to the transfer agent the necessary legal opinions required by the transfer agent, if any, in connection with the instruction under clause (B) upon the receipt of Subscriber representation letters and such other customary supporting documentation as requested by (and in a form reasonably acceptable to) such counsel. Subscriber agrees to disclose its beneficial ownership, as determined in accordance with Rule 13d-3 of the Exchange Act, of Subscribed Shares to the Company (or its successor) upon reasonable request to assist the Company in making the determination described above.

 

 

(c)           The Company’s obligations to include the Subscribed Shares in the Registration Statement are contingent upon Subscriber furnishing in writing to the Company a completed selling stockholder questionnaire in customary form that contains such information regarding Subscriber, the securities of the Company held by Subscriber and the intended method of disposition of the Subscribed Shares as shall be reasonably requested by the Company to effect the registration of the Subscribed Shares, and Subscriber shall execute such documents in connection with such registration as the Company may reasonably request that are customary of a selling stockholder in similar situations, including providing that the Company shall be entitled to postpone and suspend the effectiveness or use of the Registration Statement (i) during any customary blackout or similar period or as permitted hereunder and (ii) as may be necessary in connection with the preparation and filing of a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement following the filing of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 20-F for its first completed fiscal year following the effective date of the Registration Statement; provided, that the Company shall request such information from Subscriber, including the selling stockholder questionnaire, at least five calendar days prior to the anticipated date of filing the Registration Statement with the Commission. In the case of the registration effected by the Company pursuant to this Subscription Agreement, the Company shall, upon reasonable request, inform Subscriber as to the status of such registration. Subscriber shall not be entitled to use the Registration Statement for an underwritten offering of Subscribed Shares. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company may delay or postpone filing of such Registration Statement, and from time to time require Subscriber not to sell under the Registration Statement or suspend the use or effectiveness of any such Registration Statement if (A) it determines in good faith that in order for the registration statement to not contain a material misstatement or omission, an amendment thereto would be needed, (B) such filing or use would materially affect a bona fide business or financing transaction of the Company or would require premature disclosure of information that would materially adversely affect the Company, or (C) in the good faith judgment of the majority of the members of the Company’s board of directors, such filing or effectiveness or use of such Registration Statement would be seriously detrimental to the Company, or (D) the majority of the board determines to delay the filing or initial effectiveness of, or suspend use of, a Registration Statement and such delay or suspension arises out of, or is a result of, or is related to or is in connection with the SEC Guidance or future Commission guidance directed at special purpose acquisition companies, or any related disclosure or related matters (each such circumstance, a “Suspension Event”); provided, that, (w) the Company shall not so delay filing or so suspend the use of the Registration Statement for a period of more than sixty consecutive days or more than one hundred twenty total calendar days, or more than three times in any three hundred sixty day period and (x) the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to make such registration statement available for the sale by Subscriber of such securities as soon as practicable thereafter.

 

(d)           Upon receipt of any written notice from the Company (which notice shall not contain any material non-public information regarding the Company) of the happening of (i) an issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of any Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for such purpose, which notice shall be given no later than three Business Days from the date of such event, (ii) any Suspension Event during the period that the Registration Statement is effective, which notice shall be given no later than three Business Days from the date of such Suspension Event, or (iii) if as a result of a Suspension Event the Registration Statement or related prospectus contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made (in the case of the prospectus) not misleading, Subscriber agrees that (1) it will immediately discontinue offers and sales of the Subscribed Shares under the Registration Statement until Subscriber receives copies of a supplemental or amended prospectus (which the Company agrees to promptly prepare) that corrects the misstatement(s) or omission(s) referred to above and receives notice that any post-effective amendment has become effective or unless otherwise notified by the Company that it may resume such offers and sales and (2) it will maintain the confidentiality of any information included in such written notice delivered by the Company unless otherwise required by law, subpoena or regulatory request or requirement. If so directed by the Company, Subscriber will deliver to the Company or, in Subscriber’s sole discretion destroy, all copies of the prospectus covering the Subscribed Shares in Subscriber’s possession; provided, however, that this obligation to deliver or destroy all copies of the prospectus covering the Subscribed Shares shall not apply (w) to the extent Subscriber is required to retain a copy of such prospectus (A) in order to comply with applicable legal, regulatory, self-regulatory or professional requirements or (B) in accordance with a bona fide pre-existing document retention policy or (x) to copies stored electronically on archival servers as a result of automatic data back-up.

 

 

(e)            For purposes of this Section 5 of this Subscription Agreement, (i) “Subscribed Shares” shall mean, as of any date of determination, the Subscribed Shares (as defined in the recitals to this Subscription Agreement) and any other equity security issued or issuable with respect to the Subscribed Shares by way of stock split, dividend, distribution, recapitalization, merger, exchange, or replacement, and (ii) “Subscriber” shall include any person to which the rights under this Section 5 shall have been duly assigned.

 

(f)            The Company shall, notwithstanding any termination of this Subscription Agreement, indemnify, defend and hold harmless Subscriber, (to the extent Subscriber is a seller under the Registration Statement), the officers, directors, members, managers, partners, agents and employees of Subscriber, each person who controls Subscriber (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) and the officers, directors, members, managers, partners, agents and employees of each such controlling person, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs (including, without limitation, reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees) and expenses (collectively, “Losses”) arising out of or caused by or based upon (i) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, any prospectus included in the Registration Statement or any form of prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus, or any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of any prospectus or form of prospectus or supplement thereto, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, or (ii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act, Exchange Act or any state securities law or any rule or regulation thereunder, in connection with the performance of its obligations under this Section 5, except, in each case, to the extent that such untrue statements, alleged untrue statements, omissions or alleged omissions are (1) based upon information regarding Subscriber furnished in writing to the Company by or on behalf of Subscriber expressly for use therein or Subscriber has omitted a material fact from such information or (2) result from or in connection with any offers or sales effected by or on behalf of Subscriber in violation of Section 5(d). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company’s indemnification obligations shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Losses or action if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of the Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). Upon the request of Subscriber, the Company shall provide Subscriber with an update on any threatened or asserted proceedings arising from or in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Section 5 of which the Company receives notice in writing.

 

 

(g)           Subscriber shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, officers, members, managers, partners, agents and employees, each person who controls the Company (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act), and the directors, officers, members, managers, partners, agents or employees of such controlling persons, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against all Losses arising out of or based upon any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement, any prospectus included in the Registration Statement, or any form of prospectus, or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus, or arising out of or relating to any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of any prospectus, or any form of prospectus or supplement thereto, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statements, alleged untrue statements, omissions or alleged omissions are based upon information regarding Subscriber furnished in writing to the Company by or on behalf of Subscriber expressly for use therein. In no event shall the liability of Subscriber be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by Subscriber upon the sale of the Subscribed Shares giving rise to such indemnification obligation. Notwithstanding the forgoing, Subscriber’s indemnification obligation shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Losses or action if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of Subscriber (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) nor shall Subscriber be liable for any Losses to the extent they arise out of or are based upon a violation which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by the Company.

 

(h)           Any person or entity entitled to indemnification herein shall (i) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification (provided that the failure to give prompt notice shall not impair any person’s or entity’s right to indemnification hereunder to the extent such failure has not prejudiced the indemnifying party) and (ii) unless in such indemnified party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist with respect to such claim, permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. If such defense is assumed, the indemnifying party shall not be subject to any liability for any settlement made by the indemnified party without its consent (but such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). An indemnifying party who is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim shall not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for all parties indemnified by such indemnifying party with respect to such claim, unless in the reasonable judgment of any indemnified party a conflict of interest may exist between such indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with respect to such claim. No indemnifying party shall, without the consent of the indemnified party, consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which cannot be settled in all respects by the payment of money (and such money is so paid by the indemnifying party pursuant to the terms of such settlement), which settlement shall not include a statement or admission of fault and culpability on the part of such indemnified party, and which settlement shall include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation.

 

(i)            The indemnification provided for under this Subscription Agreement shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the indemnified party or any officer, director or controlling person or entity of such indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of the Subscribed Shares pursuant to this Subscription Agreement.

 

 

(j)            If the indemnification provided under this Section 5 from the indemnifying party is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any Losses, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying the indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such Losses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations; provided, however, that the liability of Subscriber shall be limited to the net proceeds received by such Subscriber from the sale of Subscribed Shares giving rise to such indemnification obligation. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact, was made by (or not made by, in the case of an omission), or relates to information supplied by (or not supplied by, in the case of an omission), or on behalf of such indemnifying party or indemnified party, and the indemnifying party’s and indemnified party’s relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the Losses shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 5, any legal or other fees, charges or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any investigation or proceeding. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution pursuant to this Section 5(j) from any person or entity who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in no event will any party be liable for punitive damages in connection with this Subscription Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

 

Section 6.      Termination. This Subscription Agreement shall terminate and be void and of no further force and effect, and all rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall terminate without any further liability on the part of any party in respect thereof, (a) upon the Business Combination Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms, or (b) upon the earliest to occur of (x) such date and time as the Forward Purchase Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms, and (y) the mutual written agreement of the parties hereto to terminate this Subscription Agreement, if the Closing has not occurred by such date other than as a breach of Subscriber’s obligations hereunder; provided, that nothing herein will relieve any party from liability for any willful breach hereof prior to the time of termination, and each party will be entitled to any remedies at law or in equity to recover losses, liabilities or damages arising from such breach. The Company shall notify Subscriber of the termination of the Business Combination Agreement promptly after the termination thereof.

 

Section 7.      Trust Account Waiver. Subscriber hereby acknowledges that, as described in PNAC’s prospectus relating to its initial public offering (the “IPO”) dated May 16, 2022 available at www.sec.gov, PNAC has established a trust account (the “Trust Account”) containing the proceeds of the IPO and from certain private placements occurring simultaneously with the IPO (including interest accrued from time to time thereon) for the benefit of the Company, its public stockholders and certain other parties (including the underwriters of the IPO), and that, except as otherwise described in such prospectus, the Company may disburse monies from the Trust Account only to (x) its public stockholders in the event they elect to have their shares of Common Stock redeemed for cash in connection with the consummation of PNAC’s initial business combination, an amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation of PNAC to extend the deadline by which PNAC must consummate its initial business combination, or PNAC’s failure to consummate an initial business combination by such deadline, (y) pay certain taxes from time to time, or (z) PNAC after or concurrently with the consummation of its initial business combination. For and in consideration of the Company entering into this Subscription Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Subscriber, on behalf of itself and its affiliates, hereby (a) agrees that it does not now and shall not at any time hereafter have any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any assets held in the Trust Account, and shall not make any claim against the Trust Account, arising out or as a result of, in connection with or relating in any way to this Subscription Agreement, 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 hereafter as the “Released Claims”), (b) irrevocably waives any Released Claims that it may have against the Trust Account now or in the future as a result of, or arising out of, this Subscription Agreement, and (c) will not seek recourse against the Trust Account as a result of, in connection with or relating in any way to this Subscription Agreement. Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that such irrevocable waiver is a material inducement to the Company to enter into this Subscription Agreement, and further intends and understands such waiver to be valid, binding, and enforceable against Subscriber in accordance with applicable law. To the extent Subscriber commences any action or proceeding based upon, in connection with, relating to or arising out of any matter relating to the Company or its Representatives, which proceeding seeks, in whole or in part, monetary relief against the Company or its Representatives, Subscriber hereby acknowledges and agrees that its sole remedy shall be against funds held outside of the Trust Account and that such claim shall not permit Subscriber (or any person claiming on Subscriber’s behalf or in lieu of Subscriber) to have any claim against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) or any amounts contained therein. Nothing in this Section 7 shall be deemed to limit Subscriber’s right to distributions from the Trust Account in accordance with PNAC’s Certificate of Incorporation in respect of any redemptions by Subscriber in respect of Common Stock acquired by any means other than pursuant to this Subscription Agreement, subject to the Forward Purchase Agreement. Notwithstanding anything in this Subscription Agreement to the contrary, the provisions of this Section 7 shall survive termination of this Subscription Agreement.

The parties hereto further acknowledge and agree: (x) to waive any requirement for the security or posting of any bond in connection with any such equitable remedy; (y) not to assert that a remedy of specific enforcement pursuant to this Section 8(k) is unenforceable, invalid, contrary to applicable law or inequitable for any reason; and (z) to waive any defenses in any action for specific performance, including the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.

 

(l)            If any provision of this Subscription Agreement shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality or enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Subscription Agreement shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and shall continue in full force and effect.

 

(m)          No failure or delay by a party hereto in exercising any right, power or remedy under this Subscription Agreement, and no course of dealing between the parties hereto, shall operate as a waiver of any such right, power or remedy of such party. No single or partial exercise of any right, power or remedy under this Subscription Agreement by a party hereto, nor any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce any such right, power or remedy, shall preclude such party from any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy hereunder. The election of any remedy by a party hereto shall not constitute a waiver of the right of such party to pursue other available remedies. No notice to or demand on a party not expressly required under this Subscription Agreement shall entitle the party receiving such notice or demand to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of the party giving such notice or demand to any other or further action in any circumstances without such notice or demand.

 

(n)           This Subscription Agreement may be executed and delivered in one or more counterparts (including by electronic mail, in .pdf or other electronic submission) and by different parties in separate counterparts, with the same effect as if all parties hereto had signed the same document. All counterparts so executed and delivered shall be construed together and shall constitute one and the same agreement.

 

(o)           This Subscription Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to the principles of conflicts of laws that would otherwise require the application of the law of any other state.

 

(p)            EACH PARTY HEREBY WAIVES ITS RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OR RELATED TO THIS SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR OTHER LITIGATION OF ANY TYPE BROUGHT BY ANY PARTY AGAINST ANY OTHER PARTY OR ANY AFFILIATE OF ANY OTHER SUCH PARTY, WHETHER WITH RESPECT TO CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS OR OTHERWISE. THE PARTIES AGREE THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE TRIED BY A COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY. WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, THE PARTIES FURTHER AGREE THAT THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IS WAIVED BY OPERATION OF THIS SECTION AS TO ANY ACTION, COUNTERCLAIM OR OTHER PROCEEDING WHICH SEEKS, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, TO CHALLENGE THE VALIDITY OR ENFORCEABILITY OF THIS SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT OR ANY PROVISION HEREOF. THIS WAIVER SHALL APPLY TO ANY SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENTS, RENEWALS, SUPPLEMENTS OR MODIFICATIONS TO THIS SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT.

 

 

(q)           The parties agree that all disputes, legal actions, suits and proceedings arising out of or relating to this Subscription Agreement must be brought exclusively in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware and any state appellate court therefrom within the State of Delaware (or, if the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware declines to accept jurisdiction over a particular matter, any federal court within the State of Delaware or, in the event each federal court within the State of Delaware declines to accept jurisdiction over a particular matter, any state court within the State of Delaware) (collectively the “Designated Courts”). Each party hereby consents and submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Designated Courts. No legal action, suit or proceeding with respect to this Subscription Agreement may be brought in any other forum. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a final judgement in any such action may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Each party hereby irrevocably waives all claims of immunity from jurisdiction, and any objection which such party may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding in any Designated Court, including any right to object on the basis that any dispute, action, suit or proceeding brought in the Designated Courts has been brought in an improper or inconvenient forum or venue. Each of the parties also agrees that delivery of any process, summons, notice or document to a party hereof in compliance with Section 8(a) of this Subscription Agreement shall be effective service of process for any action, suit or proceeding in a Designated Court with respect to any matters to which the parties have submitted to jurisdiction as set forth above.

 

(r)            This Subscription Agreement may only be enforced against, and any claim, action, suit or other legal proceeding based upon, arising out of, or related to this Subscription Agreement, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Subscription Agreement, may only be brought against the entities that are expressly named as parties hereto.

 

(s)           The Company shall file with the Commission a Current Report on Form 8-K (the “Disclosure Document”) disclosing all material terms of this Subscription Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby and any other material, nonpublic information that the Company has provided to Subscriber at any time prior to the filing of the Disclosure Document and including as exhibits to the Disclosure Document, the form of this Subscription Agreement (without redaction). Upon the issuance of the Disclosure Document, to the Company’s knowledge, Subscriber shall not be in possession of any material, non-public information received from the Company or any of its affiliates, officers, directors, or employees or agents, unless otherwise agreed by Subscriber. Notwithstanding anything in this Subscription Agreement to the contrary, each of the Company (i) shall not publicly disclose the name of Subscriber or any of its affiliates or advisers, or include the name of Subscriber or any of its affiliates or advisers in any press release, without the prior written consent of Subscriber and (ii) shall not publicly disclose the name of Subscriber or any of its affiliates or advisers, or include the name of Subscriber or any of its affiliates or advisers in any filing with the Commission or any regulatory agency or trading market, without the prior written consent of Subscriber, except (A) as required by the federal securities laws, rules or regulations and (B) to the extent such disclosure is required by other laws, rules or regulations, at the request of the staff of the Commission or regulatory agency or under the regulations of the Stock Exchange, in which case of clause (A) or (B), the Company, as applicable, shall provide Subscriber with prior written notice (including by e-mail) of such permitted disclosure, and shall reasonably consult with Subscriber regarding such disclosure. Subscriber will promptly make available any information reasonably requested by the Company for any regulatory application or filing made or approval sought in connection with the Transactions (including filings with the Commission).

 

(t)            If any change in the Common Stock shall occur between the date of this Subscription Agreement and the Closing by reason of any reclassification, recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split, combination, exchange, or readjustment of shares, or any share dividend, the number of Subscribed Shares issued to Subscriber hereunder shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect such change.

 

 

(u)           The obligations of Subscriber under this Subscription Agreement are several and not joint with the obligations of any other investor, and Subscriber shall not be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other investor. The decision of Subscriber to purchase Subscribed Shares pursuant to this Subscription Agreement has been made by Subscriber independently of any other investor and independently of any information, materials, statements or opinions as to the business, affairs, operations, assets, properties, liabilities, results of operations, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of the Company, Target or any of their respective affiliates or subsidiaries which may have been made or given by any other investor or by any agent or employee of any other investor, and neither Subscriber nor any of its agents or employees shall have any liability to any other investor (or any other person) relating to or arising from any such information, materials, statements or opinions. Nothing contained herein, and no action taken by Subscriber or other investor pursuant hereto, shall be deemed to constitute Subscriber and any other investors as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that Subscriber and other investors are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Subscription Agreement. Subscriber acknowledges that no other person has acted as agent for Subscriber in connection with making its investment hereunder and no other person will be acting as agent of Subscriber in connection with monitoring its investment in the Subscribed Shares or enforcing its rights under this Subscription Agreement. Subscriber shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including without limitation the rights arising out of this Subscription Agreement, and it shall not be necessary for any other investor to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.

 

(v)           The headings herein are for convenience only, do not constitute a part of this Subscription Agreement and shall not be deemed to limit or affect any of the provisions hereof. The language used in this Subscription Agreement will be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties hereto to express their mutual intent, and no rules of strict construction will be applied against any party. Unless the context otherwise requires, (i) all references to Sections, Schedules or Exhibits are to Sections, Schedules or Exhibits contained in or attached to this Subscription Agreement, (ii) each accounting term not otherwise defined in this Subscription Agreement has the meaning assigned to it in accordance with GAAP, (iii) words in the singular or plural include the singular and plural and pronouns stated in either the masculine, the feminine or neuter gender shall include the masculine, feminine and neuter, (iv) the use of the word “including” in this Subscription Agreement shall be by way of example rather than limitation, and (v) the word “or” shall not be exclusive.
