Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Business Combination Agreement

As previously disclosed in the Initial Current Report, on August 6, 2025 (the “Execution Date”), SilverBox Corp IV, a Cayman Islands exempted company (“SPAC”), Parataxis Holdings Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Pubco”), PTX Merger Sub I Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pubco (“SPAC Merger Sub”), PTX Merger Sub II LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pubco (“Company Merger Sub”), Parataxis Holdings LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Company”), SilverBox Sponsor IV LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Sponsor”), solely for certain limited purposes as representative of the SPAC Shareholders (the “SPAC Representative”), and Edward Chin, solely for certain limited purposes as representative of the Company Holders (the “Seller Representative”), entered into a business combination agreement (the “Business Combination Agreement” and, the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement, the “Business Combination”). Capitalized terms used in this Current Report on Form 8-K but not otherwise defined herein have the meanings given to them in the Business Combination Agreement.

Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, and subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, (a) SPAC Merger Sub will merge with and into SPAC, with SPAC continuing as the surviving company (the “SPAC Merger”), and with each SPAC Shareholder receiving one share of Pubco Class A common stock (“Pubco Class A Stock”) for each SPAC Class A Ordinary Share held by such shareholder in accordance with the terms of the Business Combination Agreement and (b) Company Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company, with the Company continuing as the surviving entity (the “Company Merger” and, together with the SPAC Merger, the “Mergers,” and the effective time of the Mergers, the “Effective Time”), and with the Company Holders receiving shares of Pubco Class A Stock (other than the Key Company Holder (as defined below) who will receive shares of Pubco Class C common stock (“Pubco Class C Stock and together with the Pubco Class A Stock, “Pubco Stock”) in exchange for their Company Units (as defined below) in accordance with the terms of the Business Combination Agreement. As a result of the Mergers, SPAC and the Company will become wholly-owned subsidiaries of Pubco, and Pubco will become a publicly traded company, all upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Business Combination Agreement and in accordance with applicable law. At least one (1) Business Day prior to the Effective Time, SPAC will de-register from the Register of Companies in the Cayman Islands by way of continuation out of the Cayman Islands and into the State of Delaware so as to re-domicile as and become a Delaware corporation (the “Conversion”).

Consideration

As consideration for the Company Merger, at the Effective Time, (i) each common unit of membership in the Company (“Company Common Unit”), other than Company Common Units held by Edward Chin (the “Key Company Holder”), will be converted into the right to receive, in exchange for such Company Common Unit, a number of shares of Pubco Class A Stock equal to (A) the Exchange Ratio (as defined below) multiplied by (B) one Company Unit, (ii) each non-voting preferred unit of the Company (“Company Preferred Unit,” and together with the Company Common Units, the “Company Units”) will be converted into the right to receive, in exchange for such Company Preferred Unit, a number of shares of Pubco Class A Stock equal to (A) the Exchange Ratio multiplied by the product of one Company Preferred Unit multiplied by 1.30 plus (B) the Preferred Holder Pro Rata Share of any Adjustment Shares, and (iii) each Company Common Unit held by the Key Company Holder as of immediately prior the Effective Time will be converted into the right to receive, in exchange for such Company Common Unit, a number of shares of Pubco Class C Stock equal to (A) one Company Common Unit multiplied by (B) the Exchange Ratio. In addition, each Company Common Unit (including Company Common Units held by the Key Company Holder) will be entitled to receive its pro rata portion of any Earnout Shares (as defined below), and each Company Preferred Unit will be entitled to receive additional shares of Pubco Class A Stock to account for certain increases, if any, in the price of Bitcoin between the time of purchase of the Purchased Bitcoin and the third business day prior to the date (the “Closing Date”) of the closing of the Business Combination (the “Closing”), in each case, as provided in the Business Combination Agreement. The “Exchange Ratio” is the quotient obtained by dividing the Per Unit Price by $10.00, the “Per Unit Price” is an amount equal to (x) the sum of $100,000,000, plus the gross cash proceeds of the Initial Financing Transactions (as defined below), plus the gross cash proceeds of any Additional Financing Transactions (as defined below) of the Company prior to the Closing, divided by (y) the total number of issued and outstanding Company Units, after treating all outstanding in-the-money convertible securities of the Company as fully vested and exercised, exchanged or converted as of the Effective Time, but excluding any Company Units owned by the Company in treasury or by any subsidiary of the Company and the “Adjustment Shares” means a number of shares of Pubco Class A Stock equal to (X) the product of (A) (I) the quotient obtained by dividing (i) the Closing Bitcoin Price by (ii) the Signing Bitcoin Price, (II) minus 1, multiplied by (B) the Preferred Equity Investment Gross Cash Proceeds divided by (Y) $10.00; provided, that the amount calculated in (A) of the foregoing shall not be less than zero.

As additional consideration, Company Holders of Common Units also have the potential to receive up to 7,500,000 additional shares of Pubco Class A Stock (the “Earnout Shares”) (along with any Earnings thereon) contingent upon the Pubco Class A Stock meeting certain share price targets during the 5-year period following the Closing (the “Earnout Period”). The Earnout Shares will be issued by Pubco into an escrow account at or prior to the Closing and released in accordance with the following:

·	Two-thirds (2/3) of the Earnout Shares will be released if the VWAP of the Pubco Class A Stock equals<br>or exceeds $12.50 per share for any 20 trading days within any consecutive 30-trading day period during the Earnout Period; and
·	One-third (1/3) of the Earnout Shares will be released if the VWAP of the Pubco Class A Stock equals or<br>exceeds $15.00 per share for any 20 trading days within any consecutive 30-trading day period during the Earnout Period.
---	---

All of the Earnout Shares will be accelerated and released if, during the Earnout Period, Pubco is subject to a change of control in which the implied consideration per share of Pubco Class A Stock equals or exceeds $12.50 per share (a “Qualifying Change of Control”). In the event that the applicable share price targets are not met during the Earnout Period, the Company Holders will not be entitled to receive the applicable portion of the Earnout Shares (along with any Earnings thereon).

As consideration for the SPAC Merger, at the Effective Time, (i) all issued and outstanding SPAC Public Units will be automatically detached and the holder thereof shall be deemed to hold (A) one SPAC Class A Ordinary Share, which will be converted into one share of Pubco Class A Stock, and (B) one-third (1/3) of one SPAC Public Warrant, which will be converted into one third (1/3) of one warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one (1) share of Pubco Class A Stock at a price of $11.50 per share (a “Pubco Public Warrant”), (ii) all issued and outstanding SPAC Private Units shall be automatically detached and the holder thereof shall be deemed to hold (A) one SPAC Class A Ordinary Share, which will be converted into one share of Pubco Class A Stock, and (B) one-third (1/3) of one SPAC Private Warrant, which will be converted into one third (1/3) of one warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one (1) share of Pubco Class A Stock at a price of $11.50 per share (a “Pubco Private Warrant”), and (iii) each issued and outstanding SPAC Class B Ordinary Share shall be converted automatically into one SPAC Class A Ordinary Share, which will be converted into the right to receive one share of Pubco Class A Stock. Also at the Effective Time, each issued and outstanding SPAC Public Warrant shall be converted into one Pubco Public Warrant and each issued and outstanding SPAC Private Warrant shall be converted into one Pubco Private Warrant.

Pursuant to the Sponsor Letter Agreement (as defined below), which was signed concurrently with the Business Combination Agreement, at the Closing, up to 150,000 shares of Pubco Class A Stock to be issued to the Sponsor in the SPAC Merger (the “Sponsor Earnout Shares”) will be deposited in an escrow account and released in the same proportions and upon achievement of the same share price targets (including in connection with a Qualifying Change of Control) as apply with respect to the Earnout Shares.

Holders of shares of Pubco Class A Stock issued in the Mergers will be entitled to one (1) vote per share and to receive distributions in proportion to the number of shares of Pubco Class A Stock held by such holders. In addition, the shares of Pubco Class A Stock will be listed for trading and will be freely transferable, subject to the terms of the Lock-Up Agreements (as described below) and any restrictions pursuant to applicable laws.

Holders of shares of Pubco Class C Stock issued in the Company Merger, all of which immediately following the Closing will be held by an entity controlled by the Key Company Holder, will collectively have 80% of the voting power of all shares of capital stock of Pubco (including shares issued in the future) (such voting power, the “Class C Voting Power”) until such time as the Key Company Holder, including his permitted transferees (such as charitable trusts and estate planning vehicles), own less than 25% of their aggregate ownership as of immediately after the Closing (the “Sunset Date”), with the foregoing determination taking into account certain considerations to be more fully described in the A&R Certificate of Incorporation (as defined below). Upon the Sunset Date or upon certain transfers to third parties or certain disqualifying events (namely, removal from Pubco’s Executive Committee for cause or upon death of the Key Company Holder), the shares of Pubco Class C Stock will automatically convert into shares of Pubco Class A Stock. Each holder of a share of Pubco Class C Stock shall, prior to such conversion, be entitled to the Class C Voting Power for each share of Pubco Class C Stock held of record by such holder on all matters on which Pubco stockholders are entitled to vote generally, including the election or removal of directors, and all matters on which holders of Pubco Class C Stock as a separate class are entitled to vote. Holders of shares of Pubco Class C Stock will be entitled to the same economic rights as the holders of shares of Pubco Class A Stock, including any rights to distributions and dividends. The shares of Pubco Class C Stock will not be listed or freely transferable.

The Business Combination Agreement contains customary representations and warranties of the parties, which shall not survive the Closing. Many of the representations and warranties are qualified by materiality or Material Adverse Effect. “Material Adverse Effect” as used in the Business Combination Agreement means, with respect to any specified person, any fact, event, occurrence, change or effect that has had, or would reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect upon (i) the business, assets, Liabilities, results of operations, prospects or condition (financial or otherwise) of such Person and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or (ii) the ability of such Person or any of its Subsidiaries to consummate the Business Combination, in each case subject to certain customary exceptions.

Sales of the SEPA Shares to Yorkville, and the timing of any such sales, are at Pubco’s option, and Pubco is under no obligation to sell any SEPA Shares to Yorkville.

Pubco and Yorkville may also agree to terminate the SEPA by mutual written consent.

As consideration for Yorkville’s commitment to purchase the SEPA Shares, Pubco agreed to pay to Yorkville a commitment fee in an amount equal to 1.0% of the Commitment Amount (the “Commitment Fee”), of which (i) one-half (the “Initial Fee”) shall be paid on or before the fifth trading day following the consummation of the Transactions, and which may be paid, at the option of Pubco, in cash, or by the issuance to Yorkville of such number of shares of Pubco Class A Stock that is equal to the Initial Fee divided by $10.00 (the “Initial Commitment Shares”) and (ii) one-half (the “Deferred Fee”) shall be paid within five trading days of the date that Pubco receives proceeds from the sale of SEPA Shares to Yorkville of at least $50 million (the “Deferred Fee Date”), and which may be paid, at the option of Pubco, in cash, or by the issuance to Yorkville of such number of shares of Pubco Class A Stock that is equal to the Deferred Fee divided by the average of the daily VWAPs of the shares of Pubco Class A Stock during the first 3 trading days immediately following the Deferral Fee Date (the “Deferred Commitment Shares”). The Initial Commitment Shares issuable thereunder shall be included on the Registration Statement. Pursuant to the SEPA, Pubco is required to register for resale all SEPA Shares which Yorkville may acquire, and is required to have a registration statement declared effective by the SEC before it can sell any SEPA Shares to Yorkville.

SEPA RegistrationRights Agreement

Concurrently with the Closing of the Business Combination Agreement**,** Pubco and Yorkville will enter into a registration rights agreement (the “SEPA Registration Rights Agreement”), pursuant to which Pubco will agree to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission a registration statement covering the resale of the SEPA Shares and the Commitment Shares issuable to the Investor under the SEPA.

The SEPA is filed as Exhibit10.7 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and the SEPA Registration Rights Agreement is filed as Exhibit 10.8 to this Current Report onForm 8-K, and the foregoing descriptions thereof are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the SEPA and the SEPARegistration Rights Agreement and the terms of which are incorporated by reference herein. The filing of the SEPA herewith provides investorswith information regarding its terms and is not intended to provide any other factual information about the parties. In particular, theassertions embodied in the representations and warranties contained in the SEPA were made as of the execution date of the SEPA only andare qualified by information in confidential disclosure schedules provided by the parties to each other in connection with the signingof the SEPA. These disclosure schedules contain information that modifies, qualifies, and creates exceptions to the representations andwarranties set forth in the SEPA. Moreover, certain representations, warranties and covenants in the SEPA may have been used for the purposeof allocating risk between the parties rather than establishing matters of fact. Accordingly, you should not rely on the representations,warranties and covenants in the SEPA as characterizations of the actual statements of fact about the parties.

Shared Facilities and Services Agreement

As previously disclosed in the Initial Current Report, concurrently with the Closing of the Business Combination Agreement, Pubco and Parataxis Capital Management LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and an affiliate of the Company (“PCM”), will enter into a Shared Facilities and Services Agreement (the “Services Agreement”). Pursuant to the Services Agreement, PCM will agree to provide, or cause to be provided, to Pubco and its subsidiaries use of PCM’s facilities and certain services to Pubco and its subsidiaries in exchange for a monthly services fee based on the pro rata portion of PCM’s fully allocated cost and expenses that are directly attributable to the provision of facilities and services to be provided by PCM.

The form of Services Agreementis filed as Exhibit 10.5 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, and the foregoing description thereof is qualified in its entirety by referenceto the full text of the form of the Services Agreement and the terms of which are incorporated by reference herein.

Right of First Refusal Agreement

As initially disclosed in the Initial Current Report, concurrently with the Closing of the Business Combination Agreement, the Company, PCM, Pubco, and Edward Chin will enter into a Right of First Refusal Agreement (the “ROFR”). Pursuant to the ROFR, if, from the Closing and until the three-year anniversary of the Closing (the “Offer Period”), PCM receives a bona fide, written offer from any person to enter into a single transaction or series of related transactions with respect to (a) the acquisition, directly or indirectly, of fifty percent (50%) of the outstanding voting power of PCM or (b) the sale, lease, transfer, exclusive license or other disposition by PCM of all or substantially all of the assets of PCM (either, a “Sale Transaction”), then PCM shall deliver to Pubco prompt written notice (the “Offer Notice”) thereof stating: (i) the identity of the Prospective Buyer (as defined in the ROFR) and (ii) the material terms and conditions of such Sale Transaction. With respect to any such Sale Transaction proposed to be made by PCM during the Offer Period, Pubco shall have a right of first refusal to consummate such Sale Transaction on substantially the same terms and conditions, including price, as the Prospective Buyer. In the event Pubco elects not to exercise its right of first refusal, PCM may proceed to close the Sale Transaction upon the terms set forth in the Offer Notice or on terms no more favorable to the Prospective Buyer than those contained in the Offer Notice; provided, that in the event Pubco elects not to exercise its right of first refusal and such Sale Transaction is not consummated within ninety (90) days, then the right of first refusal process described in the ROFR shall survive and repeat itself until the expiration of the Offer Period.

The Form of the ROFR isfiled as Exhibit 10.6 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, and the foregoing description thereof is qualified in its entirety by referenceto the full text of the form of the ROFR and the terms of which are incorporated by reference herein.

Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement

As previously disclosed in the Initial Current Report, concurrently with the Closing of the Business Combination Agreement, SPAC, Pubco, the Sponsor and each Company Holder shall enter into a registration rights agreement that will amend and restate the Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of August 15, 2024, by and among SPAC, Sponsor and the other parties thereto entered into at the time of SPAC’s initial public offering (the “Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement”). Pursuant to the Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement, among other matters, Pubco will (i) assume the registration obligations of SPAC under such registration rights agreement, with such rights applying to the shares of Pubco Class A Stock and (ii) provide the Company Holders party thereto with registration rights with respect to the resale of shares of Pubco Class A Stock.

Insider Letter Amendment

As previously disclosed in the Initial Current Report, concurrently with the Closing of the Business Combination Agreement, SPAC, the Company, Pubco and certain SPAC insiders will enter into an amendment (the “Insider Letter Amendment”) to the letter agreement, dated August 15, 2024, as may be amended, by and among SPAC, the Sponsor and certain SPAC insiders therein that was entered into in connection with SPAC’s initial public offering (the “Insider Letter Agreement”), pursuant to which, among other matters, effective as of the Closing, Pubco shall assume and be assigned the rights and obligations of SPAC under the Insider Letter Agreement.

Governance TermSheet

As previously disclosed in the Initial Current Report, at or prior to the Closing, Pubco shall amend and restate Pubco’s certificate of incorporation (the “Pubco A&R Certificate of Incorporation”) and bylaws to incorporate the terms of the Governance Term Sheet attached as an exhibit to the Business Combination Agreement (the “Governance Term Sheet”), pursuant to which the parties have agreed to certain governance terms for Pubco to be effective as of the Effective Time. The Governance Term Sheet provides, among other things, that (i) the board of directors of Pubco (the “Pubco Board”) shall consist of five individuals, three of which are to be designated by the Company, one of which is to be designated by SPAC and one of which will be Edward Chin, as the Chief Executive Officer of Pubco; (ii) Edward Chin will serve as Chairman of the Pubco Board; (iii) except for matters delegated to the Executive Committee, all decisions of the Pubco Board must be adopted by a simple majority of directors in attendance; and (iv) Pubco shall establish an Executive Committee consisting of Edward Chin and such other members as determined by Edward Chin and an Audit Committee, Compensation Committee and Nominating & Governance Committee, each consisting of three independent directors. The Governance Term Sheet also provides for the voting rights of the classes of shares of Pubco Stock, as follows (x) the holders of shares of Pubco Class A Stock shall be entitled to one (1) vote per share and to receive distributions in proportion to the number of shares of Pubco Class A Stock held by them, and (y) the holders of Pubco Class C Stock, all of which will be held by an entity controlled by the Key Company Holder immediately following the Closing, will collectively have 80% of the voting power of all shares of Pubco Stock (including shares issued in the future) until such time as the Key Company Holder, including his permitted transferees (such as charitable trusts and estate planning vehicles), own less than 25% of their aggregate ownership as of immediately after the Closing, with the foregoing determination taking into account certain considerations to be more fully described in the Pubco A&R Certificate of Incorporation.

Item 3.02 Unregistered Sale of Equity Securities.

The disclosure set forth above in Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated by reference herein, to the extent applicable. The securities of the Company that may be issued in connection with the Preferred Equity Investment will not be registered under the Securities Act, in reliance on the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and/or Regulation D promulgated thereunder.

Additional Information and Where to Find It

Pubco, the Company and SPAC intend to file with the SEC the Registration Statement, which will include a preliminary proxy statement of SPAC and a prospectus of Pubco (the “Proxy Statement/Prospectus”) in connection with the Transactions. The definitive proxy statement and other relevant documents will be mailed to shareholders of SPAC as of a record date to be established for voting on the Transactions and other matters as described in the Proxy Statement/Prospectus. SPAC, the Company and/or Pubco will also file other documents regarding the Transactions with the SEC. This Current Report on Form 8-K does not contain all of the information that should be considered concerning the Transactions and is not intended to form the basis of any investment decision or any other decision in respect of the Transactions. BEFORE MAKING ANY VOTING OR INVESTMENT DECISION, SHAREHOLDERS OF SPAC AND OTHER INTERESTED PARTIES ARE URGED TO READ, WHEN AVAILABLE, THE PRELIMINARY PROXY STATEMENT/PROSPECTUS, AND AMENDMENTS THERETO, AND THE DEFINITIVE PROXY STATEMENT/PROSPECTUS AND ALL OTHER RELEVANT DOCUMENTS FILED OR THAT WILL BE FILED WITH THE SEC IN CONNECTION WITH SPAC’S SOLICITATION OF PROXIES FOR THE EXTRAORDINARY GENERAL MEETING OF ITS SHAREHOLDERS TO BE HELD TO APPROVE THE TRANSACTIONS AND OTHER MATTERS AS DESCRIBED IN THE PROXY STATEMENT/PROSPECTUS BECAUSE THESE DOCUMENTS WILL CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT SPAC, THE COMPANY, PUBCO AND THE TRANSACTIONS. Investors and security holders will also be able to obtain copies of the Registration Statement and the Proxy Statement/Prospectus and all other documents filed or that will be filed with the SEC by SPAC and Pubco, without charge, once available, on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov or by directing a request to: SilverBox Corp IV, 8701 Bee Cave Road, Austin, TX 78746, or upon written request to Pubco, via email at info@sbcap.com.

NEITHER THE SEC NOR ANY STATE SECURITIES REGULATORY AGENCY HAS APPROVED OR DISAPPROVED THE TRANSACTIONS DESCRIBED HEREIN, PASSED UPON THE MERITS OR FAIRNESS OF THE TRANSACTIONS OR ANY RELATED TRANSACTIONS OR PASSED UPON THE ADEQUACY OR ACCURACY OF THE DISCLOSURE IN THIS CURRENT REPORT. ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE CONTRARY CONSTITUTES A CRIMINAL OFFENSE.

The Preferred Equity Units of the Company issued in the Initial Financing Transactions have not been registered under the Securities Act, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.

Participants in the Solicitation

SPAC, the Company, Pubco and their respective directors, executive officers, certain of their shareholders and other members of management and employees may be deemed under SEC rules to be participants in the solicitation of proxies from SPAC’s shareholders in connection with the Transactions. A list of the names of such persons, and information regarding their interests in the Transactions and their ownership of SPAC’s securities are, or will be, contained in SPAC’s filings with the SEC, including SPAC’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 filed with the SEC on March 13, 2025 (“SPAC Annual Report”) and SPAC’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2025, filed with the SEC on May 13, 2025. Additional information regarding the interests of the persons who may, under SEC rules, be deemed participants in the solicitation of proxies of SPAC’s shareholders in connection with the Transactions, including the names and interests of Pubco’s directors and executive officers, will be set forth in the Registration Statement and Proxy Statement/Prospectus, which is expected to be filed by Pubco, the Company and SPAC with the SEC. Investors and security holders may obtain free copies of these documents as described above.

No Offer or Solicitation

This information contained in this Current Report on Form 8-K is for informational purposes only and is not a proxy statement or solicitation of a proxy, consent or authorization with respect to any securities or in respect of the Transactions and shall not constitute an offer to sell or exchange, or a solicitation of an offer to buy or exchange the securities of SPAC, the Company or Pubco, or any commodity or instrument or related derivative, nor shall there be any sale of any such securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation, sale or exchange would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of such state or jurisdiction. No offer of securities shall be made except by means of a prospectus meeting the requirements of the Securities Act or an exemption therefrom. Investors should consult with their counsel as to the applicable requirements for a purchaser to avail itself of any exemption under the Securities Act.

Forward-Looking Statements

This Current Report on Form 8-K includes “forward-looking statements” with respect to SPAC, Pubco and the Company within the meaning of the federal securities laws. The expectations, estimates, and projections of the businesses of the Company and SPAC may differ from their actual results and consequently, you should not rely on these forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Words such as “expect,” “estimate,” “project,” “budget,” “forecast,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “may,” “will,” “could,” “should,” “believe,” “predict,” “potential,” “continue,” and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements include, without limitation, future performance and anticipated financial impacts of the Transactions, the satisfaction of the closing conditions to the Transactions, and the timing of the completion of the Transactions. These forward-looking statements involve significant risks and uncertainties that could cause the actual results to differ materially from the expected results. Most of these factors are outside of the control of the Company, Pubco and SPAC and are difficult to predict. Factors that may cause such differences include, but are not limited to: (1) the Transactions not being completed in a timely manner or at all, which may adversely affect the price of SPAC’s securities; (2) the Transactions not being completed by SPAC’s business combination deadline; (3) the failure by the parties to satisfy the conditions to the consummation of the Transactions, including the approval of SPAC’s shareholders; (4) failure to realize the anticipated benefits of the Transactions, which may be affected by, among other things, competition, the ability of Pubco to grow and manage growth profitably and retain its key employees, and the demand in South Korea for digital assets; (5) the level of redemptions of SPAC’s public shareholders which will reduce the amount of funds available for Pubco to execute on its business strategies and may make it difficult to obtain or maintain the listing or trading of Pubco Class A Stock on a major securities exchange; (6) the failure of Pubco to obtain or maintain the listing of its securities on any securities exchange after closing of the Transactions; (7) costs related to the Transactions and as a result of becoming a public company that may be higher than currently anticipated; (8) changes in business, market, financial, political and regulatory conditions; (9) Pubco’s anticipated operations and business, including the highly volatile nature of the price of Bitcoin and the demand for digitals assets in Korea; (10) Pubco’s stock price will be highly correlated to the price of Bitcoin and the price of Bitcoin may decrease between the signing of the definitive documents for the Transactions and the closing of the Transactions or at any time after the closing of the Transactions; (11) increased competition in the industries in which Pubco will operate; (12) significant legal, commercial, regulatory and technical uncertainty regarding Bitcoin; (13) treatment of crypto assets for U.S. and foreign tax purposes; (14) after consummation of the Transactions, Pubco experiences difficulties managing its growth and expanding operations; (15) challenges in implementing Pubco’s business plan due to operational challenges, significant competition and regulation; (16) being considered to be a “shell company” by the securities exchange on which Pubco Class A Stock will be listed or by the SEC, which may impact the ability to list Pubco Class A Stock and restrict reliance on certain rules or forms in connection with the offering, sale or resale of securities; (17) the outcome of any potential legal proceedings that may be instituted against Pubco, the Company, SPAC or others following announcement of the Transactions; (18) trading price and volume of Pubco Class A Stock may be volatile following the Transactions and an active trading market may not develop; (19) Pubco stockholders may experience dilution in the future due to the exercise of a significant number of existing warrants and any future issuances of equity securities in Pubco; (20) investors may experience immediate and material dilution upon Closing as a result of the SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares held by the Sponsor, since the value of the SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares is likely to be substantially higher than the nominal price paid for them, even if the trading price of Pubco Class A Stock at such time is substantially less than the price per share paid by investors; (21) conflicts of interest that may arise from investment and transaction opportunities involving Pubco, the Company, its affiliates and other investors and clients; (22) legal, regulatory, political, currency, and economic risks specific to South Korea, including risks related to geopolitical tensions in the region; (23) risks related to, and potential loss of the entire investment in, the Company’s potential investment in a single KOSDAQ-listed company; (24) Bitcoin trading venues may experience greater fraud, security failures or regulatory or operational problems than trading venues for more established asset classes; (25) the custody of Pubco’s Bitcoin, including the loss or destruction of private keys required to access its Bitcoin and cyberattacks or other data loss relating to its Bitcoin, which could cause Pubco to lose some or all of its Bitcoin; (26) a security breach or cyber-attack and unauthorized parties obtain access to Pubco’s Bitcoin assets, Pubco may lose some or all of its Bitcoin temporarily or permanently and its financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected; (27) the emergence or growth of other digital assets, including those with significant private or public sector backing, including by governments, consortiums or financial institutions, could have a negative impact on the price of Bitcoin and adversely affect Pubco’s business; (28) potential regulatory change reclassifying Bitcoin as a security could lead to the Pubco’s classification as an “investment company” under the Investment Company Act of 1940 and could adversely affect the market price of Bitcoin and the market price of Pubco listed securities; (29) it is not possible to predict the amount of Pubco Class A Stock sold under the SEPA or the gross proceeds resulting from such sales, that sales under the SEPA will cause dilution to existing Pubco shareholders, Pubco may spend any proceeds under the SEPA in ways that may not generate a significant return; and (30) other risks and uncertainties included in (x) the “Risk Factors” sections of the SPAC Annual Report and (y) other documents filed or to be filed with or furnished or to be furnished to the SEC by Pubco and SPAC. The foregoing list of factors is not exclusive. You should not place undue reliance upon any forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. The Company, Pubco and SPAC do not undertake or accept any obligation or undertaking to release publicly any updates or revisions to any forward-looking statements to reflect any change in their expectations or any change in events, conditions, or circumstances on which any such statement is based, except as required by law. Past performance by the Company’s, Pubco’s or SPAC’s management teams and their respective affiliates is not a guarantee of future performance. Therefore, you should not place undue reliance on the historical record of the performance of the Company’s, Pubco’s or SPAC’s management teams or businesses associated with them as indicative of future performance of an investment or the returns that the Company, Pubco or SPAC will, or are likely to, generate going forward.

Until so surrendered, outstanding Company Certificates will be deemed, from and after the Effective Time, to evidence only the right to receive the applicable portion of the Merger Consideration Shares pursuant to this Article II.

(e)           If certificates representing shares of Pubco Stock are to be issued in a name other than that in which the Company Certificates or SPAC Certificates surrendered in exchange therefor are registered, it will be a condition of the issuance thereof that the Company Certificates or SPAC Certificates so surrendered will be properly endorsed and otherwise in proper form for transfer and that the Persons requesting such exchange will have paid to Pubco or any agent designated by it any transfer or other taxes required by reason of the issuance of certificates representing shares of Pubco Stock in any name other than that of the registered holder of the Company Certificates or SPAC Certificates surrendered, or established to the satisfaction of Pubco or any agent designated by it that such tax has been paid or is not payable.

(i)           No dividends or other distributions declared or made after the date of this Agreement with respect to shares of Pubco Stock with a record date after the Effective Time will be paid to the holders of any Company Certificates or SPAC Certificates that have not yet been surrendered with respect to the shares of Pubco Stock to be issued upon surrender thereof until the holders of record of such Company Certificates or SPAC Certificates shall surrender such certificates.

(a)           At or prior to the Closing, the Seller Representative, the SPAC Representative and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (or such other escrow agent mutually acceptable to SPAC and the Company), as escrow agent (the “Escrow Agent”), shall enter into an escrow agreement, effective as of the Effective Time, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to SPAC and the Company (the “Escrow Agreement”), pursuant to which Pubco shall issue Seven Million Five Hundred Thousand (7,500,000) shares of Pubco Class A Stock (subject to equitable adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, combinations, recapitalizations and the like after the Closing, including to account for any equity securities into which such shares are exchanged or converted, the “Earnout Shares”) in the name of the Company Common Holders. Pubco shall deposit such Earnout Shares with the Escrow Agent to be held, along with any Earnings thereon, in a segregated escrow account (the “Escrow Account”) and disbursed therefrom in accordance with the terms of this Section 2.13 and the Escrow Agreement. The Company Common Holders shall be shown as registered owners of such Earnout Shares on the books and records of Pubco, and subject to any limitations set forth in this Section 2.13, shall be entitled to receive dividends (if declared) with respect to such Earnout Shares (other than non-taxable stock dividends, which shall be included as part of the Earnings). The Earnout Shares, along with the Earnings thereon, shall be allocated among and transferred to the Company Common Holders pro rata based on their Common Holders Pro Rata Share as additional consideration from Pubco based on the performance of the Pubco Class A Stock during the five (5) year period after the Closing (the “Earnout Period”) in accordance with this Section 2.13, which Common Holders Pro Rata Share shall be payable to such Company Common Holders in the form of Earnout Shares and any related dividends, distributions or other income thereon. Unless otherwise required by Law, all distributions made from the Escrow Account to the Company Common Holders shall be treated by the Parties as an adjustment to the number of Merger Consideration Shares received by the Company Common Holders pursuant to Article II hereof.

(b)           Each of the Company Common Holders shall have the contingent right to receive its Common Holders Pro Rata Share of the Earnout Shares (along with the Earnings thereon) from the Escrow Account, subject to receipt of the necessary Transmittal Documents in accordance with Section 2.12 based upon the occurrence of the following events, if any, during the Earnout Period:

(i)           In the event that the VWAP of the Pubco Class A Stock equals or exceeds $12.50 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations and recapitalizations) (the “Tier I Share Price Target”) for any twenty (20) Trading Days within any consecutive thirty (30) Trading Day period during the Earnout Period, then, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each Company Common Holder in whose name Earnout Shares are issued shall be entitled to receive from the Escrow Account its Common Holders Pro Rata Share of two-thirds of the Earnout Shares (along with the Earnings thereon).

(ii)           In the event that the VWAP of the Pubco Class A Stock equals or exceeds $15.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations and recapitalizations) (the “Tier II Share Price Target” and the Tier I Share Price Target or Tier II Share Price Target, a “Share Price Target”) for any twenty (20) Trading Days within any consecutive thirty (30) Trading Day period during the Earnout Period, then, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each Company Common Holder shall be entitled to receive its Common Holders Pro Rata Share of one-third of the Earnout Shares (along with the Earnings thereon).

In the event that the applicable Share Price Targets are not met during the Earnout Period, the Company Common Holders shall not be entitled to receive the applicable portion of the Earnout Shares (along with the Earnings thereon). For the avoidance of doubt, Earnout Shares shall vest and be issued only in connection with the first achievement of any Share Price Target during the Earnout Period, and the Company Common Holders shall not be entitled to Earnout Shares for any subsequent achievement of the same Share Price Target. The achievement of the Tier II Share Price Target shall be deemed to include the achievement of the Tier I Share Price Target not previously achieved, and, in such case, Pubco shall issue the Earnout Shares attributable to each such Share Price Target together (upon which such lower Tier I Share Price Target shall be deemed achieved and no further Earnout Shares shall become payable upon subsequent achievements of any Share Price Targets so achieved).

(c)           Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that during the Earnout Period (i) Pubco is subject to a Change of Control and (ii) the implied consideration per share of Pubco Class A Stock pursuant to which Pubco or its stockholders have the right to receive in such Change of Control equals or exceeds the Tier I Share Price Target (or the equivalent fair market value thereof, as determined by the Post-Closing Pubco Board in good faith, in the event of any non-cash consideration) (a “Qualifying Change of Control”), then, subject to the terms and conditions of the Agreement, the Company Common Holders shall be entitled to receive their Common Holders Pro Rata Share of all Earnout Shares not previously achieved and for which the related Earnout Shares have not previously vested (the achievement of a Qualifying Change of Control or a Share Price Target, a “Triggering Event”).

(d)           With respect to the achievement of the Share Price Targets, Pubco’s Chief Financial Officer (the “CFO”) shall monitor the VWAP of Pubco Class A Stock on each Trading Day during the Earnout Period, and as soon as practicable (and in any event within ten (10) Business Days) after the end of each monthly anniversary of the Closing during the Earnout Period, the CFO will prepare and deliver to each of the Seller Representative and the SPAC Representative (each, a “Representative Party”) a written statement (each, a “Earnout Statement”) that sets forth (i) the VWAP of Pubco Class A Stock on each Trading Day for such monthly anniversary period then ended and the preceding monthly period and (ii) whether a Share Price Target has been achieved for any twenty (20) Trading Days within any thirty (30) Trading Day period during such monthly anniversary period. Similarly, as soon as practicable, and in any event within five (5) Business Days after a Triggering Event, the CFO will send an Earnout Statement to each Representative Party indicating that a Triggering Event has occurred, along with the details of such Triggering Event. Each Representative Party will have ten (10) Business Days after its receipt of an Earnout Statement to review it, and each Representative Party and its Representatives on its behalf may make inquiries to the CFO and related Pubco and Company personnel and advisors regarding questions concerning or disagreements with the Earnout Statement arising in the course of their review thereof, and Pubco and the Company shall provide reasonable cooperation in connection therewith. If either Representative Party has any objections to an Earnout Statement, such Representative Party shall deliver to Pubco (to the attention of the CFO) and the other Representative Party a statement setting forth its objections thereto (in reasonable detail). If such written statement is not delivered by a Representative Party within ten (10) Business Days following the date of delivery of each Earnout Statement, then such Representative Party will have waived its right to contest such Earnout Statement and the calculation of the VWAP of Pubco Class A Stock during the applicable portion of the Earnout Period (and whether a Share Price Target has been achieved) or whether a Triggering Event has occurred as set forth therein. If such written statement is delivered by a Representative Party within such ten (10) Business Day period, then the Representative Parties shall negotiate in good faith to resolve any such objections for a period of ten (10) Business Day thereafter. If the Representative Parties do not reach a final resolution during such ten (10) Business Day period, then the final determination of the VWAP of Pubco Class A Stock during the applicable portion of the Earnout Period then the dispute shall be referred to the independent directors serving on the Post-Closing Pubco Board at such time that are disinterested in the Earnout Shares (i.e., such independent director is not a Company Holder, an Affiliate of a Company Holder, or an officer, director, manager, employee, trustee or beneficiary of a Company Holder, nor an immediate family member of any of the foregoing) (each, a “Disinterested Independent Director”), who shall determine, by vote or consent of a majority of the Disinterested Independent Directors, whether one, both, or neither Share Price Target has been achieved and whether the Company Holders are entitled to receive Earnout Shares.

(e)           If there is a final determination in accordance with Section 2.13(d) that the applicable Company Common Holders are entitled to receive Earnout Shares for having achieved a Triggering Event, then two-thirds or 100% of the Earnout Shares (along with the Earnings thereon), as applicable, then within three (3) Business Days of such final determination, the Representative Parties shall provide the Escrow Agent with joint written instructions to release the applicable number of Earnout Shares (along with the Earnings thereon) to the applicable Company Common Holders. In the event that one or both of the Share Price Targets are not achieved, there shall be partial disbursements, or no disbursements, as applicable, of the Earnout Shares (along with the Earnings thereon) from the Escrow Account and all or a portion, as applicable, of the Earnout Shares shall be delivered from the Escrow Account to Pubco, to be cancelled by Pubco.

(f)           The number of shares of Earnout Shares to be issued to any Company Common Holder pursuant to this Section 2.13 shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number, and such Company Common Holders shall receive in lieu of such fractional shares an amount in cash equal to the value of such fractional shares based on the VWAP of Pubco Class A Stock on Nasdaq or the principal securities exchange or securities market on which the Pubco Class A Stock is then traded over the twenty (20) day trading-period immediately preceding the date on which the payment of the Earnout Shares is triggered.

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

2.14           Intended Tax Treatment. The Parties hereby agree and acknowledge that for U.S. federal income tax purposes, (i) the Conversion is intended to qualify as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a)(1)(F) of the Code, (ii) the SPAC Merger is intended to be treated as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code and (iii) the SPAC Merger, the Company Merger and the Preferred Equity Investment, taken together, are intended to be treated as an integrated transaction that is described in Section 351(a) of the Code (clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) together, the “Intended Tax Treatment”). The Parties hereby agree to file all Tax and other informational returns on a basis consistent with such characterization, unless otherwise required pursuant to a determination within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code and shall not take steps that are inconsistent with such Intended Tax Treatment (including, without limitation, by liquidating or otherwise terminating the SPAC for U.S. federal or applicable income tax purposes to the extent doing so would be reasonably likely to be so inconsistent). Each of the Parties acknowledge and agree that each (a) has had the opportunity to obtain independent legal and tax advice with respect to the Transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and (b) is responsible for paying its own Taxes, including any adverse Tax consequences that may result if the Conversion, the SPAC Merger and the Company Merger do not qualify for the Intended Tax Treatment. If the SEC or any other Governmental Authority requests or requires that an opinion be provided on or prior to the Closing in respect of the Intended Tax Treatment, the Company will use its reasonable best efforts to cause its Tax advisors to provide any such opinion, subject to customary assumptions and limitations, and each Party shall use its reasonable best efforts to reasonably cooperate with one another and their respective Tax advisors with respect to such opinion, including using reasonable best efforts to deliver to the relevant counsel certificates (dated as of the necessary date and signed by such Party or its Affiliate, as applicable) containing such customary representations as are necessary or appropriate for such counsel to render such opinion.

2.15           Taking of Necessary Action; Further Action. If, at any time after the Effective Time, any further action is necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement and to vest the SPAC Surviving Subsidiary or Company Surviving Subsidiary, as applicable, with full right, title and possession to all assets, property, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of SPAC and SPAC Merger Sub, on the one hand, or the Company and Company Merger Sub, on the other hand, the officers and directors of SPAC, SPAC Merger Sub, the Company and Company Merger Sub, as applicable, are fully authorized in the name of their respective entities to take, and will take, all such lawful and necessary action, so long as such action is not inconsistent with this Agreement.

2.16           Withholding. Each of Pubco, the SPAC Surviving Subsidiary, the Company Surviving Subsidiary and the Exchange Agent (without duplication) shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable to any Person pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as are required to be deducted and withheld with respect to the making of such payment under any applicable Law; provided, however, that the relevant payor will reasonably cooperate with the relevant payee prior to the making of such deductions and withholding payments to determine whether any such deductions or withholding payments (other than with respect to compensatory payments, if any) are required under applicable Law and in obtaining any available exemption or reduction of, or otherwise minimizing to the extent permitted by applicable Law, such deduction and withholding. Any amounts so deducted and withheld shall be paid over to the appropriate Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Law, and to that extent shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction or withholding was made. The Parties acknowledge that no withholding is expected to be required under applicable U.S. federal income Tax Law as in effect as of the date of this Agreement with respect to any amounts payable pursuant to this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, SPAC, PubCo, the Company and their respective Affiliates, and any applicable withholding agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from amounts otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement, any amount required to be deducted and withheld with respect to the making of such payment under applicable Law; provided, that if any Party becomes aware of any obligation to deduct or withhold from amounts otherwise payable, issuable or transferable pursuant to this Agreement, such Party shall notify the other Parties as soon as reasonably practicable, and the Parties shall reasonably cooperate to obtain any certificates or other documentation required in respect of such withholding obligation.

As used in this Section 4.6, the term “file” shall be broadly construed to include any manner permitted by SEC rules and regulations in which a document or information is furnished, supplied or otherwise made available to the SEC.

(c)           As of the date of this Agreement, the SPAC Public Units, SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares and SPAC Public Warrants are registered pursuant to Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act and are listed on NYSE under the symbols “SBXDU,” “SBXD,” and “SBXD WS,” respectively. Since the IPO, SPAC has complied in all material respects with the applicable listing and corporate governance rules and regulations of NYSE. There is no action or proceeding pending or, to the Knowledge of SPAC, threatened against SPAC, by NYSE or the SEC with respect to any intention by such entity to deregister or terminate the listing of the SPAC Public Units, the SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares and the SPAC Public Warrants. None of SPAC or its Affiliates has taken any action in an attempt to terminate the registration of the SPAC Public Units, the SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares or the SPAC Public Warrants under the Exchange Act except as contemplated by this Agreement.

(d)           The financial statements and notes of SPAC contained or incorporated by reference in the SEC Reports (the “SPAC Financials”), fairly present in all material respects the financial position and the results of operations, changes in shareholders’ equity, and cash flows of SPAC at the respective dates of and for the periods referred to in such financial statements, all in accordance with (i) GAAP methodologies applied on a consistent basis throughout the periods involved and (ii) Regulation S-X or Regulation S-K, as applicable (except as may be indicated in the notes thereto and for the omission of notes and audit adjustments in the case of unaudited quarterly financial statements to the extent permitted by Regulation S-X or Regulation S-K, as applicable).

(e)           Except as and to the extent reflected or reserved against in the SPAC Financials, SPAC has not incurred any Liabilities or obligations of the type required to be reflected on a balance sheet in accordance with GAAP that is not adequately reflected or reserved on or provided for in the SPAC Financials, other than (i) Liabilities of the type required to be reflected on a balance sheet in accordance with GAAP that have been incurred since SPAC’s incorporation in the ordinary course of business or (ii) Liabilities or obligations incurred in connection with the Transactions. SPAC has no off-balance sheet arrangements that are not disclosed in the SEC Reports.

(f)           Since the IPO, (i) SPAC has not received any complaint, allegation, assertion or claim regarding the accounting or auditing practices, procedures, methodologies or methods of SPAC or its internal accounting controls, including any such complaint, allegation, assertion or claim that SPAC has engaged in questionable accounting or auditing practices and (ii) there have been no internal unresolved, material investigations regarding accounting or revenue recognition discussed with, reviewed by or initiated at the direction of the chief executive officer, chief financial officer, the SPAC Board or any committee thereof.

(g)           SPAC has established and maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15 and Rule 15d-15 under the Exchange Act) that are designed to ensure that material information relating to SPAC and other material information required to be disclosed by SPAC in the reports and other documents that it files or furnishes under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and that all such material information is accumulated and communicated to SPAC’s principal executive officer and its principal financial officer as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Such disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting SPAC’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer to material information required to be included in SPAC’s periodic reports required under the Exchange Act.

(h)           SPAC maintains systems of internal accounting controls that are sufficient to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP, including policies and procedures that are sufficient to provide reasonable assurance: (i) that SPAC maintains records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect, in all material respects, its transactions and dispositions of assets; (ii) that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit the preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP and to maintain accountability for assets; (iii) that transactions are executed, and access to assets is permitted, in accordance with management’s general or specific authorization; and (iv) that the recorded accountability for assets is compared with the existing assets at reasonable intervals and appropriate action is taken with respect to any differences. Neither SPAC nor SPAC’s independent auditors identified or have been made aware of any “significant deficiencies” or “material weaknesses” (as defined by the PCAOB) in the design or operation of SPAC’s internal controls over financial reporting which would reasonably be expected to adversely affect SPAC’s ability to record, process, summarize and report financial data, in each case which has not been subsequently remediated. SPAC has no knowledge of any fraud or whistle-blower allegations, whether or not material, that involve management or other employees or consultants who have or had a significant role in the internal control over financial reporting of SPAC.

There is no unsatisfied judgment or open injunction binding upon SPAC that would, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on SPAC. There is no Action that SPAC has pending against any other Person. SPAC holds all Permits necessary to lawfully conduct its business as presently conducted, and to own, lease and operate its assets and properties, all of which are in full force and effect.

4.8           Absence of Certain Changes. SPAC has, (a) since its incorporation, conducted no business other than its incorporation, the public offering of its SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares (and the related private offering), public reporting and its search for an initial Business Combination as described in the IPO Prospectus (including the investigation of the Company and the negotiation and execution of this Agreement) and related activities and (b) since the IPO, not been subject to a Material Adverse Effect.

There are no Liens with respect to any Taxes upon any of SPAC’s assets, other than Permitted Liens. SPAC has no outstanding waivers or extensions of any applicable statute of limitations to assess any material amount of Taxes. There are no outstanding requests by SPAC for any extension of time within which to file any Tax Return or within which to pay any Taxes shown to be due on any Tax Return.

4.11         Employees and Employee Benefit Plans. SPAC has never (a) had any paid employees, (b) retained any contractors, other than consultants and advisors in the ordinary course or (c) maintained, sponsored, contributed to or otherwise had any Liability under, any Benefit Plans.

In the event of the valid termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1, this Agreement shall forthwith become void, and there shall be no Liability on the part of any Party or any of their respective Representatives, and all rights and obligations of each Party shall cease, except: (i) Sections 7.12, 7.13, 10.1, Article XI and this Section 9.2 shall survive the termination of this Agreement, and (ii) nothing herein shall relieve any Party from Liability for any Willful Breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or obligation under this Agreement or any Fraud Claim against such Party, in either case, prior to termination of this Agreement (in each case of clauses (i) and (ii) above, subject to Section 10.1). Without limiting the foregoing, and except as provided in Section 11.5 and this Section 9.2 (but subject to Section 10.1, and subject to the right to seek injunctions, specific performance or other equitable relief in accordance with Section 11.8), the Parties’ sole right prior to the Closing with respect to any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or other agreement contained in this Agreement by another Party or with respect to the Transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be the right, if applicable, to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1.

Article XWAIVERS AND RELEASES

10.1         Waiver of Claims Against Trust. Each of the Company, Pubco and the Merger Subs hereby represents and warrants that it has read the IPO Prospectus and understands that SPAC has established the Trust Account containing the proceeds of the IPO, from certain private placements occurring simultaneously with the IPO for the benefit of the holders of the SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares issued and sold in the IPO (the “Public Shareholders”) and that, except as otherwise described in the IPO Prospectus, SPAC may disburse monies from the Trust Account only: (a) to the Public Shareholders in the event they elect to redeem their SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares in connection with the consummation of its initial Business Combination or in connection with an amendment to the SPAC Memorandum and Articles to extend SPAC’s deadline to consummate a Business Combination, (b) to the Public Shareholders if SPAC fails to consummate a Business Combination within twenty four (24) months after the closing of the IPO, subject to further extension by amendment to the SPAC Memorandum and Articles, (c) with respect to any interest earned on the amounts held in the Trust Account, as necessary to pay any taxes and up to $100,000 in dissolution expenses, and (d) to SPAC after or concurrently with the consummation of a Business Combination. For and in consideration of SPAC entering into this Agreement and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the Company, Pubco and the Merger Subs hereby agree on behalf of themselves and their Affiliates, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, that none of the Company, Pubco and the Merger Subs nor any of their respective Affiliates do now or shall at any time hereafter have any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies in the Trust Account or distributions therefrom, or make any claim against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom), regardless of whether such claim arises as a result of, in connection with or relating in any way to, this Agreement or any other matter, and regardless of whether such claim arises based on contract, tort, equity or any other theory of legal liability (collectively, the “Released Claims”). The Company, Pubco and the Merger Subs on behalf of themselves and their respective Affiliates hereby irrevocably waive any Released Claims that any such Party or any of its Affiliates may have against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) now or in the future as a result of, or arising out of, any negotiations, contracts or agreements hereunder and will not seek recourse against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) for any reason whatsoever (including for an alleged breach of this Agreement or any other agreement with SPAC or its Affiliates). The Company, Pubco and the Merger Subs each agree and acknowledge that such irrevocable waiver is material to this Agreement and specifically relied upon by SPAC to induce SPAC to enter in this Agreement, and the Company, Pubco, and the Merger Subs each further intends and understands such waiver to be valid, binding and enforceable against such Party and each of its Affiliates under applicable Law. To the extent the Company, Pubco or either Merger Sub or any of their respective Affiliates commences any action or proceeding based upon, in connection with, relating to or arising out of any matter relating to this Agreement or the Transactions, which proceeding seeks, in whole or in part, monetary relief against the Trust Account, each such Party hereby acknowledge and agree that such Party’s and its Affiliates’ sole remedy with respect to monetary relief shall be against funds held outside of the Trust Account and that such claim shall not permit such Party or any of its Affiliates (or any Person claiming on any of their behalves or in lieu of them) to have any claim against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) or any amounts contained therein. Nothing in this Section 10.1 shall amend, limit, alter, change, supersede or otherwise modify the right of the Company, Pubco and the Merger Subs to (a) bring any action or actions for specific performance, injunctive and/or other equitable relief or (b) bring or seek a claim for damages against SPAC, or any of its successors or assigns, for any breach of this Agreement (but such claim shall not be against the Trust Account or any funds distributed from the Trust Account). This Section 10.1 shall survive termination of this Agreement for any reason.

10.2         Release and Covenant Not to Sue. Effective as of the Closing, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, each Company Holder, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates that owns any share or other equity interest in or of such Company Holder (the “ReleasingPersons”), hereby releases and discharges the Company, SPAC, Pubco and the Merger Subs from and against any and all Actions, obligations, agreements, debts and Liabilities whatsoever, whether known or unknown, both at law and in equity, which such Releasing Person now has, has ever had or may hereafter have against such Parties arising on or prior to the Closing Date or on account of or arising out of any matter occurring on or prior to the Closing Date, including any rights to indemnification or reimbursement from the Company, whether pursuant to its Organizational Documents, Contract or otherwise, and whether or not relating to claims pending on, or asserted after, the Closing Date. From and after the Closing, each Releasing Person hereby irrevocably covenants to refrain from, directly or indirectly, asserting any Action, or commencing or causing to be commenced, any Action of any kind against any of the Parties or their respective Affiliates, based upon any matter purported to be released hereby. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the releases and restrictions set forth herein shall not apply to any claims a Releasing Person may have against any Party pursuant to this Agreement or any Ancillary Document.

Article XIMISCELLANEOUS

11.3         Binding Effect; Assignment. This Agreement and all of the provisions hereof shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Other than with respect to the Mergers, this Agreement shall not be assigned by any Party by operation of Law or otherwise without the prior written consent of (i) in the case of the Company, SPAC (and after the Closing, the SPAC Representative) or (ii) in the case of SPAC, Pubco and the Merger Subs, the Company (and after the Closing, the Seller Representative), and any assignment without such consent shall be null and void; provided that no such assignment shall relieve the assigning Party of its obligations hereunder.

11.4         Third Parties. Nothing contained in this Agreement or in any Ancillary Document shall create any rights in, or be deemed to have been executed for the benefit of, any Person that is not a Party or party thereto or a successor or permitted assign of such a Party; provided, however, that (a) in the event that the Closing occurs, the D&O Indemnified Persons are intended third-party beneficiaries of Section 7.14(a) and (b) the past, present or future directors, officers, agents, employees, equityholders or other Representatives, Affiliates, successors or assignees of any Party, are intended third-party beneficiaries of, and may enforce, Section 11.1 and Section 11.17.

11.5         Fees and Expenses.

(a)           Subject to Sections 10.1 and 11.5(a), all Expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the Transactions contemplated hereby shall be paid by the Party incurring such Expenses, provided that, if the Closing shall occur, Pubco shall reimburse or pay or cause to be reimbursed or paid, at or promptly following Closing, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, all Expenses; provided, that SPAC Expenses shall not exceed $7,000,000 in the aggregate (excluding SPAC Expenses relating to deferred underwriting fees, investment banking and financial advisory services, capital markets advisory services, placement agent services and reimbursable expenses in respect of any of the foregoing services, and any original issue discount, upfront fees or similar fees with respect to any Financing Transactions). For the avoidance of doubt, any payments to be made (or to cause to be made) by Pubco pursuant to this Section 11.5 shall be paid upon consummation of the Transactions and release of proceeds from the Trust Account.

(b)           Notwithstanding the terms of Section 11.5(a) regardless of whether the Closing occurs, SPAC shall bear any and all fees, costs and expenses paid or payable by any Party or any of its Affiliates as a result of or in connection with or arising from (i) filing the Registration Statement with the SEC, and (ii) submitting to NYSE a listing application for the shares of Pubco Class A Stock (including any filing fees arising therefrom).

11.6         Governing Law; Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be governed by, construed and enforced in accordance with the Laws of the State of New York without regard to the conflict of laws principles thereof, provided that matters that as a matter of the laws of the Cayman Islands are required to be governed by the laws of the Cayman Islands (including, without limitation, in respect of the internal affairs of the Conversion and the duties that may apply to the directors and officers of the Parties) shall be governed by and construed in accordance with, the laws of the Cayman Islands, without regard to laws that may be applicable under conflicts of laws principles that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the Cayman Islands to such matters. All Actions arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be heard and determined exclusively in any state or federal court located in New York, New York (or in any appellate court thereof) (the “Specified Courts”). Each Party hereto hereby (a) submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of any Specified Courts for the purpose of any Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement brought by any Party hereto and (b) irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert by way of motion, defense or otherwise, in any such Action, any claim that it is not subject personally to the jurisdiction of the above-named courts, that its property is exempt or immune from attachment or execution, that the Action is brought in an inconvenient forum, that the venue of the Action is improper, or that this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby may not be enforced in or by any Specified Courts. Each Party agrees that a final judgment in any Action shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Law. Each Party irrevocably consents to the service of the summons and complaint and any other process in any other Action relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, on behalf of itself, or its property, by personal delivery of copies of such process to such Party at the applicable address set forth in Section 11.2. Nothing in this Section 11.6 shall affect the right of any Party to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by Law.

11.7         WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY ACTION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF ANY ACTION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THAT FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 11.7.

11.8         Specific Performance. Each Party acknowledges that the rights of each Party to consummate the Transactions contemplated hereby are unique, recognizes and affirms that in the event of a breach of this Agreement by any Party, money damages would be inadequate and the non-breaching Parties would not have an adequate remedy at law, and agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed by an applicable Party in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. Accordingly, each Party shall be entitled to seek an injunction or restraining order to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to seek to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, without the requirement to post any bond or other security or to prove that money damages would be inadequate, this being in addition to any other right or remedy to which such Party may be entitled under this Agreement, at law or in equity.

11.9         Severability. In case any provision in this Agreement shall be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction, such provision shall be modified or deleted, as to the jurisdiction involved, only to the extent necessary to render the same valid, legal and enforceable, and the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby nor shall the validity, legality or enforceability of such provision be affected thereby in any other jurisdiction. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the Parties will substitute for any invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision a suitable and equitable provision that carries out, so far as may be valid, legal and enforceable, the intent and purpose of such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision.

11.10       Amendment. Subject to the provisions of applicable Law, this Agreement may be amended, supplemented or modified only by execution of a written instrument signed by each of SPAC, Pubco, the Merger Subs, the Company, the SPAC Representative and the Seller Representative.

11.11       Waiver. Each of SPAC, the Company and Pubco on behalf of itself and its Affiliates, the SPAC Representative on behalf of itself and SPAC to the extent provided in this Agreement, and the Seller Representative on behalf of itself and the Company Holders to the extent provided in this Agreement, may in its sole discretion (a) extend the time for the performance of any obligation or other act of any other non-Affiliated Party, (b) waive any inaccuracy in the representations and warranties by any other non-Affiliated Party contained herein or in any document delivered pursuant hereto and (c) waive compliance by such other non-Affiliated Party with any covenant or condition contained herein. Any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed by the Party or Parties to be bound thereby (including by the SPAC Representative or the Seller Representative in lieu of such Party to the extent provided in this Agreement). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no failure or delay by a Party in exercising any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise of any other right hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any waiver of any provision of this Agreement by Pubco or SPAC after the Closing shall also require the prior written consent of the SPAC Representative.

11.12       Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the documents or instruments referred to herein, including any Exhibits, Annexes and Schedules, which Exhibits, Annexes and Schedules are incorporated herein by reference, together with the Ancillary Documents, embody the entire agreement and understanding of the Parties in respect of the subject matter contained herein. There are no restrictions, promises, representations, warranties, covenants or undertakings, other than those expressly set forth or referred to herein or the documents or instruments referred to herein, which collectively supersede all prior agreements and the understandings among the Parties with respect to the subject matter contained herein.

11.13       Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed and delivered (including by facsimile, email or other electronic means or transmission) in one or more counterparts, and by the different Parties in separate counterparts, each of which when executed shall be deemed to be an original but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Copies of executed counterparts of this Agreement transmitted by electronic transmission (including by email or in .pdf format) or facsimile as well as electronically or digitally executed counterparts (such as DocuSign) shall have the same legal effect as original signatures and shall be considered original executed counterparts of this Agreement.

11.14       SPAC Representative.

(a)           SPAC, on behalf of itself and its Subsidiaries, successors and assigns, by execution and delivery of this Agreement, hereby irrevocably appoints Silverbox Sponsor IV LLC, in the capacity as the SPAC Representative, as each such Person’s agent, attorney-in-fact and representative, with full power of substitution to act in the name, place and stead of such Person, to act on behalf of such Person from and after the Closing in connection with: (i) controlling and making any determinations with respect to whether Earnout Shares are to be issued under Section 2.13; (ii) terminating, amending or waiving on behalf of such Person any provision of this Agreement or any Ancillary Documents to which the SPAC Representative is a party or otherwise has rights in such capacity (together with this Agreement, the “SPAC Representative Documents”); (iii) signing on behalf of such Person any releases or other documents with respect to any dispute or remedy arising under any SPAC Representative Documents; (iv) employing and obtaining the advice of legal counsel, accountants and other professional advisors as the SPAC Representative, in its reasonable discretion, deems necessary or advisable in the performance of its duties as the SPAC Representative and to rely on their advice and counsel; (v) incurring and paying reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including fees of brokers, attorneys and accountants incurred pursuant to the transactions contemplated hereby, and any other out-of-pocket fees and expenses allocable or in any way relating to such transaction; and (vi) otherwise enforcing the rights and obligations of any such Persons under any SPAC Representative Documents, including giving and receiving all notices and communications hereunder or thereunder on behalf of such Person; provided, that the Parties acknowledge that the SPAC Representative is specifically authorized and directed to act on behalf of, and for the benefit of, the holders of SPAC Securities (other than the Company Holders immediately prior to the Effective Time and their respective successors and assigns). All decisions and actions by the SPAC Representative, including any agreement between the SPAC Representative and the Seller Representative, shall be binding upon SPAC and its Subsidiaries, successors and assigns, and neither they nor any other Party shall have the right to object, dissent, protest or otherwise contest the same. The provisions of this Section 11.14 are irrevocable and coupled with an interest. The SPAC Representative hereby accepts its appointment and authorization as the SPAC Representative under this Agreement.

(b)           The SPAC Representative shall not be liable for any act done or omitted under any SPAC Representative Document as the SPAC Representative while acting in good faith and without willful misconduct or gross negligence, and any act done or omitted pursuant to the advice of counsel shall be conclusive evidence of such good faith. SPAC shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the SPAC Representative from and against any and all Losses incurred without gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on the part of the SPAC Representative (in its capacity as such) and arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of the SPAC Representative’s duties under any SPAC Representative Document, including the reasonable fees and expenses of any legal counsel retained by the SPAC Representative. In no event shall the SPAC Representative in such capacity be liable under or in connection with any SPAC Representative Document for any indirect, punitive, special or consequential damages. The SPAC Representative shall be fully protected in relying upon any written notice, demand, certificate or document that it in good faith believes to be genuine, including facsimiles or copies thereof, and no Person shall have any Liability for relying on the SPAC Representative in the foregoing manner. In connection with the performance of its rights and obligations hereunder, the SPAC Representative shall have the right at any time and from time to time to select and engage, at the cost and expense of the SPAC, attorneys, accountants, investment bankers, advisors, consultants and clerical personnel and obtain such other professional and expert assistance, maintain such records and incur other out-of-pocket expenses, as the SPAC Representative may deem necessary or appropriate from time to time. All of the indemnities, immunities, releases and powers granted to the SPAC Representative under this Section 11.8 shall survive the Closing and continue indefinitely.

(c)           The Person serving as the SPAC Representative may resign upon ten (10) days’ prior written notice to Pubco, SPAC and the Seller Representative, provided, that the SPAC Representative appoints in writing a replacement SPAC Representative. Each successor SPAC Representative shall have all of the power, authority, rights and privileges conferred by this Agreement upon the original SPAC Representative, and the term “SPAC Representative” as used herein shall be deemed to include any such successor SPAC Representatives.

11.15       Seller Representative.

(a)           Each Company Holder, by delivery of a Letter of Transmittal, on behalf of itself and its successors and assigns, hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints Edward Chin, in his capacity as the Seller Representative, as the true and lawful agent and attorney-in-fact of such Persons with full powers of substitution to act in the name, place and stead thereof with respect to the performance on behalf of such Person under the terms and provisions of this Agreement and the Ancillary Documents to which the Seller Representative is a party or otherwise has rights in such capacity (together with this Agreement, the “Seller Representative Documents”), as the same may be from time to time amended, and to do or refrain from doing all such further acts and things, and to execute all such documents on behalf of such Person, if any, as the Seller Representative will deem necessary or appropriate in connection with any of the transactions contemplated under the Seller Representative Documents, including: (i) controlling and making any determinations with respect to whether Earnout Shares are to be issued under Section 2.13; (ii) terminating, amending or waiving on behalf of such Person any provision of any Seller Representative Document (provided, that any such action, if material to the rights and obligations of the Company Holders in the reasonable judgment of the Seller Representative, will be taken in the same manner with respect to all Company Holders unless otherwise agreed by each Company Holder who is subject to any disparate treatment of a potentially material and adverse nature); (iii) signing on behalf of such Person any releases or other documents with respect to any dispute or remedy arising under any Seller Representative Document; (iv) employing and obtaining the advice of legal counsel, accountants and other professional advisors as the Seller Representative, in its reasonable discretion, deems necessary or advisable in the performance of its duties as the Seller Representative and to rely on their advice and counsel; (v) incurring and paying reasonable costs and expenses, including fees of brokers, attorneys and accountants incurred pursuant to the transactions contemplated hereby, and any other reasonable fees and expenses allocable or in any way relating to such transaction, whether incurred prior or subsequent to Closing; (vi) receiving all or any portion of the consideration provided to the Company Holders under this Agreement and to distribute the same to the Company Holders in accordance with their pro rata share; and (vii) otherwise enforcing the rights and obligations of any such Persons under any Seller Representative Document, including giving and receiving all notices and communications hereunder or thereunder on behalf of such Person.

(b)           Any other Person, including the SPAC Representative, Pubco, SPAC and the Company may conclusively and absolutely rely, without inquiry, upon any actions of the Seller Representative as the acts of the Company Holders under any Seller Representative Documents. The SPAC Representative, Pubco, SPAC and the Company shall be entitled to rely conclusively on the instructions and decisions of the Seller Representative as to (i) the settlement of any disputes with respect to Section 2.13, (ii) any payment instructions provided by the Seller Representative or (iii) any other actions required or permitted to be taken by the Seller Representative hereunder, and no Company Holder shall have any cause of action against the SPAC Representative, SPAC, the Company for any action taken by any of them in reliance upon the instructions or decisions of the Seller Representative. None of the SPAC Representative, Pubco, SPAC, or the Company shall have any Liability to any Company Holder for any allocation or distribution among the Company Holders by the Seller Representative of payments made to or at the direction of the Seller Representative. All notices or other communications required to be made or delivered to a Company Holder under any Seller Representative Document shall be made to the Seller Representative for the benefit of such Company Holder, and any notices so made shall discharge in full all notice requirements of the other parties hereto or thereto to such Company Holder with respect thereto. All notices or other communications required to be made or delivered by a Company Holder shall be made by the Seller Representative (except for a notice under Section 11.2 of the replacement of the Seller Representative).

(c)           The Seller Representative will act for the Company Holders on all of the matters set forth in this Agreement in the manner the Seller Representative believes to be in the best interest of the Company Holders, but the Seller Representative will not be responsible to the Company Holders for any Losses that any Company Holder may suffer by reason of the performance by the Seller Representative of the Seller Representative’s duties under this Agreement, other than Losses arising from the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct by the Seller Representative in the performance of its duties under this Agreement. From and after the Closing, the Company Holders shall jointly and severally indemnify, defend and hold the Seller Representative harmless from and against any and all Losses reasonably incurred without gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on the part of the Seller Representative (in its capacity as such) and arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of the Seller Representative’s duties under any Seller Representative Document, including the reasonable fees and expenses of any legal counsel retained by the Seller Representative. In no event shall the Seller Representative in such capacity be liable hereunder or in connection herewith for any indirect, punitive, special or consequential damages. The Seller Representative shall not be liable for any act done or omitted under any Seller Representative Document as the Seller Representative while acting in good faith and without willful misconduct or gross negligence, and any act done or omitted pursuant to the advice of counsel shall be conclusive evidence of such good faith. The Seller Representative shall be fully protected in relying upon any written notice, demand, certificate or document that it in good faith believes to be genuine, including facsimiles or copies thereof, and no Person shall have any Liability for relying on the Seller Representative in the foregoing manner. In connection with the performance of its rights and obligations hereunder, the Seller Representative shall have the right at any time and from time to time to select and engage, at the reasonable cost and expense of the Company Holders, attorneys, accountants, investment bankers, advisors, consultants and clerical personnel and obtain such other professional and expert assistance, maintain such records and incur other reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, as the Seller Representative may reasonably deem necessary or appropriate from time to time. All of the indemnities, immunities, releases and powers granted to the Seller Representative under this Section 11.8 shall survive the Closing and continue indefinitely.

(d)           If the Seller Representative shall die, become disabled, dissolve, resign or otherwise be unable or unwilling to fulfill its responsibilities as representative and agent of Company Holders, then the Company Holders shall, within ten (10) days after such death, disability, dissolution, resignation or other event, appoint a successor Seller Representative (by vote or written consent of the Company Holders holding in the aggregate a Pro Rata Share in excess of fifty percent (50%)), and promptly thereafter (but in any event within two (2) Business Days after such appointment) notify the SPAC Representative, Pubco and SPAC in writing of the identity of such successor. Any such successor so appointed shall become the “Seller Representative” for purposes of this Agreement.

11.16       Legal Representation.

Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, during the SEPA Commitment Period, the Company, at its sole discretion, shall have the right, but not the obligation, to issue and sell to the Investor, and the Investor shall subscribe for and purchase from the Company, Advance Shares by the delivery to the Investor of Advance Notices, on the following terms:

(a)	Advance Notice. At any time during<br> the SEPA Commitment Period, the Company may require the Investor to purchase Shares by delivering<br> an Advance Notice to the Investor, subject to the satisfaction or waiver by the Investor<br> of the conditions set forth in Annex II, and in accordance with the following provisions:
(i)	The Company shall, in its sole discretion,<br> select the number of Advance Shares, not to exceed the Maximum Advance Amount (unless otherwise<br> agreed to in writing by the Company and the Investor), it desires to issue and sell to the<br> Investor in each Advance Notice, and the time it desires to deliver each Advance Notice.

Upon receipt of an Advance Notice, the Investor<br> shall promptly provide written confirmation (which may be by e-mail) of receipt of such Advance<br> Notice, provided, that the Investor’s failure to provide such confirmation shall not<br> relieve the Investor of its obligations hereunder.

Section 3.02              Advance Limitations, Regulatory. Regardless of the Advance requested in an Advance Notice, and notwithstanding any provision to the contrary herein, the final number of Shares to be issued and sold pursuant to such Advance Notice shall be reduced (if at all) in accordance with each of the following limitations:

(a)	Ownership Limitation; Commitment<br> Amount. At any time at the request of the Company, the Investor shall inform the Company<br> in writing of the number of Common Shares the Investor beneficially owns. Notwithstanding<br> anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Investor shall not be obligated<br> to purchase or acquire any Common Shares under this Agreement which, when aggregated with<br> all other Common Shares beneficially owned by the Investor and its Affiliates (as calculated<br> pursuant to Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and Rule 13d-3 promulgated thereunder),<br> would result in the beneficial ownership by the Investor and its Affiliates (on an aggregated<br> basis) of a number of Common Shares exceeding 4.99% of the then outstanding voting power<br> or number of Common Shares (the “Ownership Limitation”). Upon the request<br> of the Investor, the Company shall promptly (but no later than the next Business Day on which<br> the transfer agent for the Common Shares is open for business) instruct the transfer agent<br> to confirm orally or in writing to the Investor and the Company the number of Common Shares<br> then outstanding. In connection with each Advance Notice, any portion of an Advance that<br> would (i) cause the Investor to exceed the Ownership Limitation, or (ii) cause<br> a number of Common Shares in excess of the Exchange Cap (as defined below) to be issuable<br> shall automatically be withdrawn with no further action required by the Company, and such<br> Advance Notice shall be deemed automatically modified to reduce the Advance by an amount<br> equal to such withdrawn portion; provided that in the event of any such automatic withdrawal<br> and automatic modification, the Investor or the Company, as applicable, will promptly notify<br> the other Party of such event.
(b)	Registration Limitation. In no<br> event shall an Advance exceed the number of Common Shares registered in respect of the transactions<br> contemplated hereby under the Registration Statement then in effect (the “Registration<br> Limitation”). In connection with each Advance Notice, any portion of an Advance<br> that would exceed the Registration Limitation shall automatically be withdrawn with no further<br> action required by the Company and such Advance Notice shall be deemed automatically modified<br> to reduce the aggregate amount of the requested Advance by an amount equal to such withdrawn<br> portion; provided that in the event of any such automatic withdrawal and automatic modification,<br> the Investor will promptly notify the Company of such event.
---	---
(c)	Compliance with Rules of Principal<br> Market. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Company shall not be obligated<br> to effect any sales under this Agreement to the extent that after giving effect to such purchase<br> and sale the aggregate number of Common Shares issued under this Agreement and any other<br> related transactions that may be considered part of the same series of transactions would<br> exceed 19.99% of the aggregate number of Common Shares issued and outstanding, calculated<br> by the Company in accordance with the rules of the Principal Market, which number shall<br> be reduced, on a share-for-share basis, by the number of Common Shares issued or issuable<br> pursuant to any transaction or series of transactions that may be aggregated with the transactions<br> contemplated by this Agreement under the applicable rules of the Principal Market as<br> determined by the Company (such maximum number of shares, the “Exchange Cap”),<br> until such Exchange Cap no longer applies in accordance with the applicable rules of<br> the Principal Market. In connection with each Advance Notice, any portion of an Advance that<br> would exceed the Exchange Cap shall automatically be withdrawn with no further action required<br> by the Company and such Advance Notice shall be deemed automatically modified to reduce the<br> aggregate amount of the requested Advance by an amount equal to such withdrawn portion in<br> respect of each Advance Notice.

Section 3.03              Advance Limitations, Minimum Acceptable Price.

(a)	With respect to each Advance Notice,<br> the Company may notify the Investor of the Minimum Acceptable Price with respect to such<br> Advance by indicating a Minimum Acceptable Price on such Advance Notice. If no Minimum Acceptable<br> Price is specified in an Advance Notice, then unless specified otherwise by the Company,<br> the Minimum Acceptable Price shall be the Default Minimum Acceptable Price. Each Trading<br> Day during a Pricing Period for which the VWAP of the Common Shares on such Trading Day is<br> below the Minimum Acceptable Price in effect with respect to such Advance Notice (each such<br> day, an “Excluded Day”), shall result in an automatic reduction to the<br> number of Advance Shares set forth in such Advance Notice by one half (1/2) (the resulting<br> amount of each Advance being the “Adjusted Advance Amount”), and each<br> Excluded Day shall be excluded from the Pricing Period for purposes of determining the Market<br> Price.
(b)	The total Advance Shares in respect<br> of each Advance with any Excluded Day(s) (after reductions have been made to arrive<br> at the Adjusted Advance Amount, if applicable) may, in the Company’s discretion, be<br> increased by such number of Common Shares (the “Additional Shares”) equal<br> to the greater of (a) the number of Common Shares sold by the Investor on such Excluded<br> Day(s), if any, or (b) such number of Common Shares elected to be subscribed for by<br> the Investor, and the subscription price per share for each Additional Share shall be equal<br> to the Minimum Acceptable Price in effect with respect to such Advance Notice multiplied<br> by 97%, provided that this increase shall not cause the total Advance Shares to exceed the<br> amount set forth in the applicable Advance Notice or any limitations set forth in Section 3.02.
---	---

(a)

With respect to each Advance Notice, the Company may notify the Investor of the Minimum Acceptable Price with respect to such Advance by indicating a Minimum Acceptable Price on such Advance Notice. If no Minimum Acceptable Price is specified in an Advance Notice, then unless specified otherwise by the Company, the Minimum Acceptable Price shall be the Default Minimum Acceptable Price. Each Trading Day during a Pricing Period for which the VWAP of the Common Shares on such Trading Day is below the Minimum Acceptable Price in effect with respect to such Advance Notice (each such day, an “Excluded Day”), shall result in an automatic reduction to the number of Advance Shares set forth in such Advance Notice by one half (1/2) (the resulting amount of each Advance being the “Adjusted Advance Amount”), and each Excluded Day shall be excluded from the Pricing Period for purposes of determining the Market Price.

(b)

The total Advance Shares in respect of each Advance with any Excluded Day(s) (after reductions have been made to arrive at the Adjusted Advance Amount, if applicable) may, in the Company’s discretion, be increased by such number of Common Shares (the “Additional Shares”) equal to the greater of (a) the number of Common Shares sold by the Investor on such Excluded Day(s), if any, or (b) such number of Common Shares elected to be subscribed for by the Investor, and the subscription price per share for each Additional Share shall be equal to the Minimum Acceptable Price in effect with respect to such Advance Notice multiplied by 97%, provided that this increase shall not cause the total Advance Shares to exceed the amount set forth in the applicable Advance Notice or any limitations set forth in Section 3.02.

---

Section 3.04              Unconditional Contract. Subject to the terms and provisions of this Agreement, the Company and the Investor acknowledge and agree that upon the Investor’s receipt of a valid Advance Notice from the Company (including any Advance Notice that is modified in accordance with Section 3.03 above) the Parties shall be deemed to have entered into an unconditional contract binding on both Parties for the purchase and sale of the applicable number of Advance Shares pursuant to such Advance Notice in accordance with the terms of this Agreement (including Sections 3.02 and 3.03) and subject to (i) Applicable Laws and (ii) Section 7.21 and (iii) in all events, the terms and provisions of this Agreement, the Investor may sell Common Shares during the Pricing Period for such Advance Notice (including with respect to any Advance Shares subject to such Pricing Period).

Section 3.05              Closings. The closing of each Advance and each sale and purchase of Advance Shares (each, a “Closing”) shall take place as soon as practicable on or after each applicable Advance Date in accordance with the procedures set forth below, but in no event later than two (2) Trading Days following the conclusion of the Pricing Period for such Advance Notice. The Company acknowledges that the Purchase Price is not known at the time an Advance Notice is delivered (at which time the Investor is irrevocably bound) but shall be determined on each Closing based on the daily prices of the Common Shares that are the inputs to the determination of the Purchase Price. In connection with each Closing, the Company and the Investor shall fulfill each of its obligations as set forth below:

(a)

On or prior to each Advance Date, the Investor shall deliver to the Company a Settlement Document along with a report by Bloomberg L.P. (or, if not reported on Bloomberg L.P., another reporting service reasonably agreed to by the parties) indicating the VWAP for each of the Trading Days during the Pricing Period, in each case in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

- 4 -

(b)	Promptly<br> after receipt of the Settlement Document with respect to each Advance (and, in any event,<br> not later than one Trading Day after such receipt), the Company will instruct its transfer<br> agent to, electronically transfer such number of Advance Shares to be purchased by the Investor<br> (as set forth in the Settlement Document) by crediting the Investor’s account or its<br> designee’s account at the Depository Trust Company through its Deposit Withdrawal at<br> Custodian System or by such other means of delivery as may be mutually agreed upon by the<br> parties hereto, and transmit notification to the Investor that such share transfer has been<br> requested. Promptly upon receipt of such notification, and in any event within one (1) Trading<br> Day, the Investor shall pay to the Company the aggregate purchase price of the Shares (as<br> set forth in the Settlement Document) in cash in immediately available funds to an account<br> designated by the Company in writing and transmit notification to the Company that such funds<br> transfer has been requested. No fractional shares shall be issued, and any fractional shares<br> that would otherwise be issued in connection with an Advance shall be rounded to the next<br> higher whole number of shares. To facilitate the transfer of the Common Shares by the Investor,<br> provided that (i) such transfers are not restricted by applicable securities laws or<br> contractual agreement and (ii) the Investor has provided the Company, its counsel<br> and the transfer agent with all materials and certifications reasonably requested or required<br> to facilitate such transfer, the Common Shares will not bear<br> any restrictive legends so long as there is an effective Registration Statement covering<br> the resale of such Common Shares (it being understood and agreed by the Investor that notwithstanding<br> the lack of restrictive legends, the Investor may only sell such Common Shares pursuant to<br> the Plan of Distribution set forth in the Prospectus included in the applicable Registration<br> Statement and otherwise in compliance with the requirements of the Securities Act (including<br> any applicable prospectus delivery requirements) or pursuant to an available exemption).
(c)	On or prior to the Advance Date, each<br> of the Company and the Investor shall deliver to the other Party (and the transfer agent,<br> as applicable) all documents, instruments and writings expressly required to be delivered<br> by either of them pursuant to this Agreement in order to implement and effect the transactions<br> contemplated herein.
---	---
(d)	Notwithstanding anything to the contrary<br> in this Agreement, if on any day during the Pricing Period (i) the Company notifies<br> Investor that a Material Outside Event has occurred, or (ii) the Company notifies the<br> Investor of a Black Out Period, the parties agree that any pending Advance shall end and<br> the final number of Advance Shares to be purchased by the Investor at the Closing for such<br> Advance shall be equal to the number of Common Shares sold by the Investor during the applicable<br> Pricing Period prior to the notification from the Company of a Material Outside Event or<br> Black Out Period, as determined by the Company based on information to be promptly provided<br> by the Investor to the Company in connection with such determination.
---	---

Section 3.06              Hardship. In the event one Party fails to perform its obligations as mandated in this Agreement (the “Breaching Party”) after the other Party’s receipt or delivery, as applicable, of an Advance Notice, the Breaching Party agrees that in addition to and in no way limiting the rights and obligations set forth in Article VI hereto and in addition to any other remedy to which the other Party is entitled at law or in equity, including, without limitation, specific performance, it will hold the other Party harmless against any loss, claim, damage, or expense (including reasonable legal fees and expenses), as incurred, arising out of or in connection with such default by the Breaching Party and acknowledges that irreparable damage may occur in the event of any such default. It is accordingly agreed that the other Party shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent such breaches of this Agreement and to specifically enforce (subject to Applicable Laws and the rules of the Principal Market), without the posting of a bond or other security, the terms and provisions of this Agreement.

Neither such inquiries nor any other due diligence investigations conducted by such Investor or its advisors (and its counsel), if any, or its representatives shall modify, amend or affect the Investor’s right to rely on the Company’s representations and warranties contained in this Agreement. The Investor acknowledges and agrees that the Company has not made to the Investor, and the Investor acknowledges and agrees it has not relied upon, any representations and warranties of the Company, its employees or any third party other than the representations and warranties of the Company contained in this Agreement. The Investor understands that its investment involves a high degree of risk. The Investor has sought such accounting, legal and tax advice, as it has considered necessary to make an informed investment decision with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby.

The Investor is not an officer, director or a person that directly, or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, controls or is controlled by, or is under common control with the Company or any “Affiliate” of the Company (as that term is defined in Rule 405 promulgated under the Securities Act).

The Company has not received written notification of any unpaid taxes in any material amount claimed to be due by the taxing authority of any jurisdiction, and the officers of the Company and its Subsidiaries know of no basis for any such claim where the failure to pay would have or would be reasonably expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.

The indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly noticed, to assume control of the defense thereof with counsel mutually reasonably satisfactory to the indemnifying party and the Investor Indemnitee or Company Indemnitee, as the case may be; provided, however, that an Investor Indemnitee or Company Indemnitee shall have the right to retain its own counsel with the actual and reasonable third party fees and expenses of not more than one counsel for such Investor Indemnitee or Company Indemnitee to be paid by the indemnifying party, if, in the reasonable opinion of counsel retained by the indemnifying party, the representation by such counsel of the Investor Indemnitee or Company Indemnitee and the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such Investor Indemnitee or Company Indemnitee and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The Investor Indemnitee or Company Indemnitee shall cooperate fully with the indemnifying party in connection with any negotiation or defense of any such action or claim by the indemnifying party and shall furnish to the indemnifying party all information reasonably available to the Investor Indemnitee or Company Indemnitee which relates to such action or claim. The indemnifying party shall keep the Investor Indemnitee or Company Indemnitee reasonably apprised as to the status of the defense or any settlement negotiations with respect thereto. No indemnifying party shall be liable for any settlement of any action, claim or proceeding effected without its prior written consent, provided, however, that the indemnifying party shall not unreasonably withhold, delay or condition its consent. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the Investor Indemnitee or Company Indemnitee, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or other compromise which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Investor Indemnitee or Company Indemnitee of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation. Following indemnification as provided for hereunder, the indemnifying party shall be subrogated to all rights of the Investor Indemnitee or Company Indemnitee with respect to all third parties, firms or corporations relating to the matter for which indemnification has been made. The indemnification required by this Article VI shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of the investigation or defense, as and when bills are received and payment therefor is due.

Section 6.04              Remedies. Subject in all respects to the provisions of Section 6.01 hereto, the remedies provided for in this Article VI are not exclusive and shall not limit any right or remedy which may be available to any indemnified person at law or equity. The obligations of the parties to indemnify or make contribution under this Article VI shall survive expiration or termination of this Agreement.

Section 6.05              Limitation of liability. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Party shall seek, nor shall any be entitled to recover from the other Party or be liable for, special, incidental, indirect, consequential, punitive or exemplary damages.

Article VII.Covenants

The Company covenants with the Investor, and the Investor covenants with the Company, as follows, which covenants of one Party are for the benefit of the other Party, during the SEPA Commitment Period:

Section 7.01              Effective Registration Statement. During the SEPA Commitment Period, the Company shall maintain the continuous effectiveness of each Registration Statement filed with the SEC under the Securities Act pursuant to and in accordance with the Registration Rights Agreement; provided, however, the Company shall only be required to use its commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the continuous effectiveness of the Registration Statement and each subsequent Registration Statement filed with the SEC under the Securities Act pursuant to and in accordance with the Registration Rights Agreement.

Section 7.02              Registration and Listing. The Company shall cause the Common Shares to continue to be registered as a class of securities under Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act, and to comply with its reporting and filing obligations under the Exchange Act, and shall not take any action or file any document (whether or not permitted by the Securities Act or the Exchange Act) to terminate or suspend such registration or to terminate or suspend its reporting and filing obligations under the Exchange Act or Securities Act, except as permitted herein. The Company shall continue the listing and trading of its Common Shares and the listing of the Shares purchased by the Investor hereunder on the Principal Market and to comply with the Company’s reporting, filing and other obligations under the rules and regulations of the Principal Market. If the Company receives any final and non-appealable notice that the listing or quotation of the Common Shares on the Principal Market shall be terminated on a date certain, the Company shall promptly (and in any case within 24 hours) notify the Investor of such fact in writing and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Common Shares to be listed or quoted on another Principal Market.

Section 7.03              Blue Sky. The Company shall take such action, if any, as is necessary by the Company in order to obtain an exemption for or to qualify the Shares for sale by the Company to the Investor pursuant to the Transaction Documents, and at the request of the Investor, the subsequent resale of Registrable Securities by the Investor, in each case, under applicable state securities or “Blue Sky” laws and shall provide evidence of any such action so taken to the Investor from time to time during the SEPA Commitment Period; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to (x) qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify, (y) subject itself to general taxation in any such jurisdiction, or (z) file a general consent to service of process in any such jurisdiction. The Company shall promptly notify the Investor of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the registration or qualification of any of the Common Shares for sale under the securities or “blue sky” laws of any jurisdiction in the United States or its receipt of actual notice of the initiation or threat of any proceeding for such purpose.

- 17 -

Section 7.04              Suspension of Registration Statement.

(a)	Establishment of a Black Out Period.<br> During the SEPA Commitment Period, the Company from time to time may suspend the use of a<br> Registration Statement by written notice to the Investor in the event that the Company determines<br> in its sole discretion in good faith that such suspension is necessary to (A) delay<br> the disclosure of material nonpublic information concerning the Company, the disclosure of<br> which at the time is not, in the good faith opinion of the Company, in the best interests<br> of the Company or (B) amend or supplement the Registration Statement or Prospectus so<br> that such Registration Statement or Prospectus shall not include an untrue statement of a<br> material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary<br> to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made,<br> not misleading (a “Black Out Period”).
(b)	No Sales by Investor During the Black<br> Out Period. During such Black Out Period, the Investor agrees not to sell any Common<br> Shares of the Company pursuant to such Registration Statement, but may sell shares pursuant<br> to an exemption from registration, if available, subject to the Investor’s compliance<br> with Applicable Laws.
---	---
(c)	Limitations on the Black Out Period.<br> The Company shall not impose any Black Out Period that is longer than 30 days or in a manner<br> that is more restrictive (including, without limitation, as to duration) than the comparable<br> restrictions that the Company may impose on transfers of the Company’s equity securities<br> by its directors and senior executive officers. In addition, the Company shall not deliver<br> any Advance Notice during any Black Out Period. If the public announcement of such material,<br> nonpublic information is made during a Black Out Period, the Black Out Period shall terminate<br> immediately after such announcement, and the Company shall immediately notify the Investor<br> of the termination of the Black Out Period.

Section 7.08              Transfer Agent Instructions. During the SEPA Commitment Period and subject to Applicable Laws, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause (including, if necessary, by requesting legal counsel for the Company to deliver an opinion) the transfer agent for the Common Shares to remove restrictive legends from Common Shares purchased by the Investor pursuant to this Agreement, provided that the transfer agent and counsel for the Company shall have been furnished with such documents as they may require for the purpose of enabling counsel to render the opinions or make the statements requested by the transfer agent, or in order to evidence the accuracy of any of the representations or warranties, or the fulfillment of any of the covenants, obligations or conditions, contained herein, and in all events, assuming that applicable circumstances and securities laws make the removal of such restrictive legends legally permissible.

In the event of any reduction in Registrable Securities pursuant to this paragraph, the Company shall use its best efforts to file one (1) or more New Registration Statements with the Commission in accordance with Section 2(c) until such time as all Registrable Securities have been included in Registration Statements that have been declared effective and the Prospectuses contained therein are available for use by the Investor.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, subject to compliance with the securities laws, the Company shall cause its transfer agent to deliver unlegended certificates for Common Shares to a transferee of the Investor in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement in connection with any sale of Registrable Securities with respect to which the Investor has entered into a contract for sale prior to the Investor’s receipt of a notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 3(d) and for which the Investor has not yet settled, provided that (i) in advance of any such efforts, the Investor shall have provided the Company, its counsel and the transfer agent with all materials and certifications reasonably requested or required to facilitate the preparation and delivery of such unlegended certificates and (ii) any request to deliver such unlegended certificates complies with applicable securities laws and is not contractually restricted.

All expenses incurred by the Company in complying with its obligations pursuant to this Agreement and in connection with the registration and disposition of Registrable Securities shall be paid by the Company, including, without limitation, all registration, listing and qualifications fees, printers, fees and expenses of the Company's counsel and accountants.

6.              INDEMNIFICATION.

With respect to Registrable Securities which are included in a Registration Statement under this Agreement:

(a)              To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company will, and hereby does, indemnify, hold harmless and defend the Investor and its directors, officers, partners, employees, agents, and representatives, and each Person, if any, who controls the Investor within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act (each, an “Investor Indemnified Person”), against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities, judgments, fines, penalties, charges, costs, reasonable attorneys’ fees, amounts paid in settlement or expenses, joint or several (collectively, “Indemnified Damages”), incurred in investigating, preparing or defending any action, claim, suit, inquiry, proceeding, investigation or appeal taken from the foregoing by or before any court or governmental, administrative or other regulatory agency, body or the SEC, whether pending or threatened, whether or not an indemnified party is or may be a party thereto (“Claims”), to which any of them may become subject insofar as such Claims (or actions or proceedings, whether commenced or threatened, in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon: (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact in a Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto or in any filing made in connection with the qualification of the offering under the securities or other “blue sky” laws of any jurisdiction in which Registrable Securities are offered (“Blue Sky Filing”), or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any final prospectus (as amended or supplemented, if the Company files any amendment or supplement thereto with the SEC) or the omission or alleged omission to state therein any material fact necessary to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which the statements therein were made, not misleading; or (iii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any other law, including, without limitation, any state securities law, or any rule or regulation thereunder relating to the offer or sale of the Registrable Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement (the matters in the foregoing clauses (i) through (iii) being, collectively, “Violations”). The Company shall reimburse the Investor and each such Investor Indemnified Person promptly as Indemnified Damages are incurred and are due and payable, including reasonable legal fees, disbursements and other expenses incurred by an Investor Indemnified Person in connection with investigating or defending any such Claim. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the indemnification agreement contained in this Section 6(a): (x) shall not apply to a Claim arising out of or based upon a Violation which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company by such Investor Indemnified Person expressly for use in connection with the preparation of the Registration Statement or any such amendment thereof or supplement thereto; (y) shall not be available to the extent such Claim is based on a failure of the Investor to deliver or to cause to be delivered the prospectus made available by the Company, if such prospectus was timely made available by the Company pursuant to Section 3(c); and (z) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Claim if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of an Investor Indemnified Person.

(b)              In connection with a Registration Statement, the Investor agrees to indemnify, hold harmless and defend, to the same extent and in the same manner as is set forth in Section 6(a), the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers, employees, representatives, or agents and each Person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act (each a “Company Indemnified Person”), against any Claim or Indemnified Damages to which any of them may become subject, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such Claim or Indemnified Damages arise out of or is based upon any Violation, in each case to the extent, and only to the extent, that such Violation occurs (i) in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Investor expressly for use in connection with such Registration Statement or (ii) from the Investor’s violation of any prospectus delivery requirements under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any other law, including, without limitation, any state securities law, or any rule or regulation thereunder relating to the offer or sale of the Registrable Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement; and, subject to Section 6(d), such Investor will reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such Claim; provided, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 6(b) and the agreement with respect to contribution contained in Section 7 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Claim if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of the Investor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided, further, that, other than in connection with fraud or gross negligence on the part of the Investor, the Investor shall be liable under this Section 6(b) for only that amount of a Claim or Indemnified Damages as does not exceed the net proceeds to such Investor as a result of the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of such Company Indemnified Person. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the indemnification agreement contained in this Section 6(b) with respect to any prospectus shall not inure to the benefit of any Company Indemnified Person if the untrue statement or omission of material fact contained in the prospectus was corrected and such new prospectus was delivered to the Investor prior to such Investor’s use of the prospectus to which the Claim relates.

(c)              Promptly after receipt by an Investor Indemnified Person or Company Indemnified Person under this Section 6 of notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding (including any governmental action or proceeding) involving a Claim, such Investor Indemnified Person or Company Indemnified Person shall, if indemnification in respect of such Claim is to be sought from any indemnifying party under this Section 6, deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof, and the indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly noticed, assume control of the defense thereof with counsel reasonably and mutually satisfactory to the indemnifying party and the Investor Indemnified Person or the Company Indemnified Person, as the case may be; provided, however, that an Investor Indemnified Person or Company Indemnified Person shall have the right to retain its own counsel with the fees and expenses of not more than one (1) counsel for such Investor Indemnified Person or Company Indemnified Person to be paid by the indemnifying party, if, in the reasonable opinion of counsel retained by the indemnifying party, the representation by such counsel of the Investor Indemnified Person or Company Indemnified Person and the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such Investor Indemnified Person or Company Indemnified Person and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The Investor Indemnified Person or Company Indemnified Person shall reasonably cooperate with the indemnifying party in connection with any negotiation or defense of any Claim by the indemnifying party and shall furnish to the indemnifying party all information reasonably available to the Investor Indemnified Person or Company Indemnified Person which relates to such action or claim. The indemnifying party shall keep the Investor Indemnified Person or Company Indemnified Person fully apprised at all times as to the status of the defense or any settlement negotiations with respect thereto. No indemnifying party shall be liable for any settlement of any action, claim or proceeding effected without its prior written consent; provided, however, that the indemnifying party shall not unreasonably withhold, delay or condition its consent. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the Investor Indemnified Person or Company Indemnified Person, as the case may be, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or other compromise which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Investor Indemnified Person or Company Indemnified Person of a full and unconditional release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation. Following indemnification as provided for hereunder, the indemnifying party shall be subrogated to all rights of the Investor Indemnified Person or Company Indemnified Person with respect to all third parties, firms or corporations relating to the Claim(s) for which indemnification has been made. The failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such Claim shall not relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to the Investor Indemnified Person or Company Indemnified Person under this Section 6, except to the extent that the indemnifying party is prejudiced in its ability to defend such Claim.

(d)              The indemnification required by this Section 6 shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of the investigation or defense, as and when bills are received or Indemnified Damages are incurred.

(e)              The indemnity agreements contained herein shall be in addition to (i) any cause of action or similar right of the Investor Indemnified Person or Company Indemnified Person against the indemnifying party or others and (ii) any liabilities the indemnifying party may be subject to pursuant to the law.

7.              CONTRIBUTION.

To the extent any indemnification by an indemnifying party is prohibited or limited by law, the indemnifying party shall contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party in connection with the actions, statements, or omissions that resulted in such losses; provided, however, that: (i) no seller of Registrable Securities guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any seller of Registrable Securities who was not guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation and (ii) contribution by any seller of Registrable Securities shall be limited in amount to the net amount of proceeds received by such seller from the sale of such Registrable Securities.

8.              REPORTS UNDER THE EXCHANGE ACT.

With a view to making available to the Investor the benefits of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act or any similar rule or regulation of the SEC that may at any time permit the Investor to sell securities of the Company to the public without registration, the Company represents, warrants, and covenants to the following:

(a)              During the Registration Period, the Company shall file with the SEC in a timely manner all required reports under section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act (giving effect to permissible extensions in accordance with Rule 12b-25 under the Exchange Act) (it being understood that nothing herein shall limit the Company’s obligations under the Purchase Agreement) and such reports shall conform to the requirement of the Exchange Act and the SEC for filing thereunder.

(b)              The Company shall furnish to the Investor so long as such Investor owns Registrable Securities, promptly upon request, (i) a written statement by the Company that it has complied with the reporting requirements of Rule 144, (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company and such other reports and documents so filed by the Company, and (iii) such other information as may be reasonably requested to permit the Investor to sell such securities pursuant to Rule 144 without registration.

9.              AMENDMENT OF REGISTRATION RIGHTS.

Provisions of this Agreement may be amended and the observance thereof may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively) only with the written consent of the Company and the Investor.

No consideration shall be offered or paid to any Person to amend or consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of any of this Agreement unless the same consideration also is offered to all of the parties to this Agreement.

10.            MISCELLANEOUS.

(a)              A Person is deemed to be a holder of Registrable Securities whenever such Person owns or is deemed to own of record such Registrable Securities or owns the right to receive the Registrable Securities.

(e)              The laws of the State of New York shall govern all issues concerning the relative rights of the Company and the Investor as its stockholder. All other questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Agreement shall be governed by the internal laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of New York. Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York, sitting in New York County, New York and federal courts for the Southern District of New York sitting New York, New York, for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper.

Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by law. If any provision of this Agreement shall be invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remainder of this Agreement in that jurisdiction or the validity or enforceability of any provision of this Agreement in any other jurisdiction. EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE, AND AGREES NOT TO REQUEST, A JURY TRIAL FOR THE ADJUDICATION OF ANY DISPUTE HEREUNDER OR IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.
