Each Company Warrant shall continue to have and be subject to substantially the same terms and conditions as were applicable to such SPAC Warrant immediately prior to the First Merger Effective Time (including any repurchase rights and cashless exercise provisions) in accordance with the provisions of the Warrant Assignment Agreement.

(iv)          SPAC Treasury Shares. Notwithstanding Section 2.2(h)(ii) above or any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if there are any SPAC Shares that are owned by SPAC as treasury shares or any SPAC Shares owned by any direct or indirect Subsidiary of SPAC immediately prior to the First Merger Effective Time, such SPAC Shares shall be cancelled and shall cease to exist without any conversion thereof or payment or other consideration therefor.

(v)            Redeeming SPAC Shares.

At the First Merger Effective Time, the Merger Sub I Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the First Merger Effective Time shall automatically convert into one ordinary share, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Surviving Entity. The ordinary share of the Surviving Entity shall have the same rights, powers and privileges as the shares so converted and shall constitute the only issued and outstanding share capital of the Surviving Entity. At the Second Merger Effective Time, each share of the Surviving Entity that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Second Merger Effective Time will be automatically cancelled and extinguished without any conversion thereof or payment therefor.

(2)            pay, or cause the Trustee to pay at the direction and on behalf of SPAC (or the Surviving Entity following the First Merger and the Surviving Company following the Second Merger), by wire transfer of immediately available funds from the Trust Account (A) as and when due all amounts payable on account of the SPAC Shareholder Redemption Amount to former SPAC Shareholders pursuant to their exercise of the SPAC Shareholder Redemption Right, (B) all accrued and unpaid Company Transaction Expenses and, subject to Section 11.6, all accrued and unpaid SPAC Transaction Expenses, each as set forth on a written statement to be delivered to the Surviving Company by or on behalf of the Company and SPAC, respectively, not less than two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, which shall include the respective amounts and wire transfer instructions for the payment thereof, and (C) immediately thereafter, all remaining amounts then available in the Trust Account (if any) (the “Remaining Trust Fund Proceeds”) to a bank account designated by the Company for its immediate use, subject to this Agreement (including, for the avoidance of doubt, Section 8.7) and the Trust Agreement; and

(a)            Prior to the First Merger Effective Time, the Company shall appoint an exchange agent reasonably acceptable to the Company and SPAC as exchange agent (for the avoidance of doubt, Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company shall be deemed to be reasonably acceptable to SPAC) (in such capacity, the “Exchange Agent”), for the purpose of exchanging SPAC Ordinary Shares for the Merger Consideration in accordance with the Plan of First Merger and this Agreement, and paying the Merger Consideration to the SPAC Shareholders. At or before the First Merger Effective Time, the Company shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, with the Exchange Agent the Merger Consideration.

(b)            If the Exchange Agent requires that, as a condition to receive the Merger Consideration, any SPAC Shareholder deliver a letter of transmittal to the Exchange Agent, then at or as promptly as practicable following the First Merger Effective Time, the Company shall send, or shall cause the Exchange Agent to send, to each SPAC Shareholder a letter of transmittal (which shall specify that the delivery shall be effected, and the risk of loss and title shall pass, only upon proper transfer of each share to the Exchange Agent, and which letter of transmittal will be in customary form and have such other provisions as SPAC and the Company may reasonably specify) for use in such exchange (each, a “Letter of Transmittal”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any obligation on the Company under this Agreement to issue Company Ordinary Shares to SPAC Shareholders entitled to receive Company Ordinary Shares may be satisfied by the Company issuing such Company Ordinary Shares, and shall be deemed to have been satisfied upon issuance of such Company Ordinary Shares, (i) to the DTC or to such other clearing service or issuer of depositary receipts (or their nominees, in either case) as may be necessary or expedient, and each SPAC Shareholder shall hold such Company Ordinary Shares in book-entry form or through a holding of depositary receipts and the DTC or its nominee or the relevant clearing service or issuer of depositary receipts (or their nominees, as the case may be), will be the holder of record of such Company Ordinary Shares or (ii) directly to each SPAC Shareholder by entering such SPAC Shareholder on the register of members maintained by the Company (or its share registrar) for the Company Ordinary Shares.

(c)            Each SPAC Shareholder shall be entitled to receive its portion of the Merger Consideration, pursuant to Section 2.2(h)(ii) (excluding any SPAC Shares referred to in Section 2.2(h)(iv), Redeeming SPAC Shares and any Dissenting SPAC Shares) upon the receipt of an “agent’s message” by the Exchange Agent (or such other evidence, if any, of transfer as the Exchange Agent may reasonably request), together with a duly completed and validly executed Letter of Transmittal (if required by the Exchange Agent in accordance with Section 2.4(b)) and such other documents as may reasonably be requested by the Exchange Agent. No interest shall be paid or accrued upon the transfer of any share.

(d)            Promptly following the date that is one (1) year after the First Merger Effective Time, the Company shall instruct the Exchange Agent to deliver to the Company all documents in its possession relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, and the Exchange Agent’s duties shall terminate. Thereafter, any portion of the Merger Consideration that remains unclaimed shall be returned to the Company and the unclaimed Company Ordinary Shares comprising the Merger Consideration shall be held by the Company as treasury shares, and any Person that was a holder of SPAC Shares (other than any SPAC Shares referred to in Section 2.2(h)(iv), Redeeming SPAC Shares and Dissenting SPAC Shares) as of immediately prior to the First Merger Effective Time that has not claimed their applicable portion of the Merger Consideration in accordance with this Section 2.4 prior to the date that is one (1) year after the First Merger Effective Time, may (subject to applicable abandoned property, escheat and similar Laws) claim from the Company, and the Company shall promptly transfer and deliver, such applicable portion of the Merger Consideration without any interest thereupon. None of SPAC, the Company, the Merger Subs, the Surviving Entity, the Surviving Company or the Exchange Agent shall be liable to any Person in respect of any of the Merger Consideration delivered to a public official pursuant to and in accordance with any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Laws. If any such Merger Consideration shall not have been claimed immediately prior to such date on which any amounts payable pursuant to this Article II would otherwise escheat to or become the property of any Governmental Authority, any such amount shall be cancelled by the Company.

(e)            Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no fraction of a Company Ordinary Share will be issued by virtue of the Mergers or the other Transactions under this Section 2.4, and each Person who would otherwise be entitled to a fraction of a Company Ordinary Share (after aggregating all fractional Company Ordinary Shares that otherwise would be received by such holder) shall instead have the number of Company Ordinary Shares issued to such Person rounded down in the aggregate to the nearest whole Company Ordinary Share.

Section 2.5            Further Assurances. If, at any time after the First Merger Effective Time, any further action is necessary, proper or advisable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement, the Surviving Entity, the Surviving Company, Merger Sub II and the Company (or their respective designees) shall take all such actions as are necessary, proper or advisable under applicable Laws, so long as such action is consistent with and for the purposes of implementing the provisions of this Agreement.

Section 2.6            Dissenter’s Rights.

(a)            Subject to Section 2.2(c)(ii) but notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary and to the extent available under the Cayman Act, SPAC Shares that are issued and outstanding immediately prior to the First Merger Effective Time and that are held by SPAC Shareholders who shall have validly exercised their dissenters’ rights for such SPAC Shares in accordance with Section 238 of the Cayman Act and otherwise complied with all of the provisions of the Cayman Act relevant to the exercise and enforcement of dissenters’ rights (the “Dissenting SPAC Shares”, and the holders of such Dissenting SPAC Shares being the “Dissenting SPAC Shareholders”) shall be cancelled and cease to exist at the First Merger Effective Time and the Dissenting SPAC Shareholders shall not be entitled to receive the applicable Merger Consideration and shall instead be entitled to receive only the payment of the fair value of such Dissenting SPAC Shares held by them as determined in accordance with the provisions of Section 238 of the Cayman Act. For the avoidance of doubt, the SPAC Shares owned by any SPAC Shareholder who fails to exercise or who effectively withdraws or otherwise loses his, her or its dissenters’ rights pursuant to Section 238 of the Cayman Act shall not be Dissenting SPAC Shares and shall thereupon be cancelled and cease to exist at the First Merger Effective Time, in exchange for the right to receive the applicable Merger Consideration, without any interest thereon in accordance with Section 2.2(h)(ii).

(b)            Prior to the Closing, SPAC shall give the Company (i) prompt written notice of any demands for dissenters’ rights received by SPAC from SPAC Shareholders and any withdrawals of such demands and (ii) the opportunity to direct all negotiations and proceedings with respect to any such notice or demand for dissenters’ rights under the Cayman Act. SPAC shall not, except with the prior written consent of the Company, make any offers or payment or otherwise agree or commit to any payment or other consideration with respect to any exercise by a SPAC Shareholder of its rights to dissent from the First Merger or any demands for appraisal or offer or agree or commit to settle or settle any such demands or approve any withdrawal of any such dissenter rights or demands.

(c)            If any SPAC Shareholder gives to SPAC, before the SPAC Shareholders’ Approval is obtained at the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting, written objection to the First Merger (each, a “Written Objection”) in accordance with Section 238(2) of the Cayman Act:

(i)            SPAC shall, in accordance with Section 238(4) of the Cayman Act, promptly give written notice of the authorization of the First Merger (the “Authorization Notice”) to each such SPAC Shareholder who has made a Written Objection, and

(ii)            unless SPAC and the Company elect by agreement in writing to waive this Section 2.6(c)(ii), no party shall be obligated to commence the Closing, and the Plan of First Merger shall not be filed with the Registrar of Companies of the Cayman Islands, until at least twenty (20) days shall have elapsed since the date on which the Authorization Notice is given (being the period allowed for written notice of an election to dissent under Section 238(5) of the Cayman Act, as referred to in Section 239(1) of the Cayman Act), but in any event subject to the satisfaction or waiver of all of the conditions set forth in Section 9.1, Section 9.2 and Section 9.3.

Section 2.7            Withholding. Each of the parties hereto and any other applicable withholding agent (and their respective Affiliates and Representatives) shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any amount otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement such amount as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code, or any provision of state, local or non-U.S. Tax Law. The parties hereto shall use commercially reasonable efforts to notify the Person in respect of whom such deduction or withholding is expected to be made prior to making any such deduction or withholding, which notice shall be in writing and include the amount of and basis for such deduction or withholding. The parties hereto shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate and reduce or eliminate any such deduction or withholding to the extent permitted by applicable Law. To the extent that amounts are so deducted or withheld, and paid over to the appropriate Governmental Authority, such deducted or withheld amounts 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.

(b)            There are no other agreements, side letters, or arrangements between SPAC and any Forward Purchase Investor relating to any Forward Purchase Agreement that could affect in any material respect the obligation of such Forward Purchase Investor to fund the applicable portion of the Forward Purchase Investment Amount set forth in the Forward Purchase Agreement of such Forward Purchase Investor and, as of the date of this Agreement, SPAC does not know of any facts or circumstances that may reasonably be expected to result in any of the conditions set forth in any Forward Purchase Agreement not being satisfied, or the Forward Purchase Investment Amount not being made available to the Company on the Closing Date consistent with the terms and conditions hereof including Section 9.3(c). To the Knowledge of SPAC, no event has occurred that, with or without notice, lapse of time or both, would constitute a default or breach under any material term or condition of any Forward Purchase Agreement and, as of the date of this Agreement, the SPAC does not have a reason to believe that any Forward Purchase Investor will be unable to satisfy in all material respects on a timely basis any term or condition of closing to be satisfied by it contained in any Forward Purchase Agreement. No fees, consideration or other discounts are payable or have been agreed by SPAC or any of its Affiliates to or with any Forward Purchase Investor in respect of its investment or, except as set forth in the Forward Purchase Agreements.

Section 4.19          No Outside Reliance. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement, each of SPAC and its equityholders, partners, members and Representatives, including Sponsor and any of its Affiliates, has made its own investigation of the Company and its Subsidiaries. The SPAC acknowledges and agrees that neither the Company nor any of its Affiliates, agents or Representatives is making any representation or warranty whatsoever, express or implied, beyond those expressly given by the Company in Article III, including any implied warranty or representation as to condition, merchantability, suitability or fitness for a particular purpose or trade as to any of the assets of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is understood that any cost estimates, financial or other projections or other predictions, forecasts or other forward looking information that may be contained or referred to in the Company Disclosure Letter or elsewhere, as well as any information, documents or other materials (including any such materials contained in any “data room” (whether or not accessed by SPAC or its Representatives) or reviewed by SPAC pursuant to the NDA or otherwise) or management presentations that have been or shall hereafter be provided to SPAC or any of its Affiliates, agents or Representatives or Forward Purchase Investors are not and will not be deemed to be representations or warranties of the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or Company Shareholders, and no representation or warranty is made as to the accuracy or completeness of any of the foregoing except as may be expressly set forth in Article III. Except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement, SPAC understands and agrees that any assets, properties and business of the Company and any of its Subsidiaries are furnished “as is”, “where is” and subject to and except as otherwise provided in the representations and warranties contained in Article III, with all faults and without any other representation or warranty of any nature whatsoever.

Section 6.4            D&O Indemnification and Insurance.

(a)            From and after the Closing, the Surviving Company and the Company shall jointly and severally indemnify and hold harmless each present and former director and officer of the Company and SPAC (in each case, solely to the extent acting in his or her capacity as such and to the extent such activities are related to the business of the Company or SPAC, respectively) (the “D&O Indemnified Parties”) against any costs or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages or liabilities incurred in connection with any Action, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law and as set forth under the Organizational Documents or indemnification agreements of the Company or SPAC, respectively, in each case, in effect on the date of this Agreement, provided that the Company shall not be liable to any D&O Indemnified Party for any costs or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages or liabilities incurred as a result of actual fraud or willful default by such D&O Indemnified Party if a court of competent jurisdiction shall have made a final judgment to that effect. Without limiting the foregoing, the Surviving Company and the Company shall (i) maintain for a period of not less than six years from the Closing, provisions in its certificate of incorporation, certificate of formation, bylaws, memorandum and articles of association, limited liability company agreement, limited liability partnership agreement, limited liability limited partnership agreement and other Organizational Documents concerning the indemnification and exoneration (including provisions relating to expense advancement) of the Company’s or SPAC’s, respectively, former and current officers, directors, employees, and agents that are no less favorable to those Persons than the provisions of the certificate of incorporation, certificate of formation, bylaws, memorandum and articles of association, limited liability company agreement, operating agreement, limited liability partnership agreement, limited liability limited partnership agreement and other Organizational Documents of the Company or SPAC, respectively, in each case, as of the date of this Agreement and (ii) not amend, repeal or otherwise modify such provisions in any respect that would materially and adversely affect the rights of those Persons thereunder, in each case, except as required by Law.

(b)            For a period of six years from the Closing, each of the Company and the Surviving Company shall maintain in effect directors’ and officers’ liability insurance (each a “D&O Insurance”) covering directors and officers of the Company and those Persons who are currently covered by the SPAC’s directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies (including, in any event, the D&O Indemnified Parties) on terms not less favorable than the terms of such current insurance coverage and with insurance carriers with the same or better credit rating, except that in no event shall the Company or the Surviving Company be required to pay an annual premium for such insurance in excess of 300% of the aggregate annual premium payable by the Company or SPAC, respectively, for such insurance policy for the year ended March 31, 2022 (in the case of the Company) or December 31, 2021 (in the case of SPAC), as the case may be (“Maximum Annual Premium”); provided, however, that (i) each of the Company and the Surviving Company may cause coverage to be extended under the current directors’ and officers’ liability insurance by obtaining a six-year “tail” policy (each a “D&O Tail”) with respect to claims existing or wrongful acts occurring at or prior to the Closing and if and to the extent such policies have been obtained prior to the Closing with respect to any such Persons, the Surviving Company and the Company, respectively, shall maintain such policies in effect and continue to honor the obligations thereunder, and (ii) if any claim is asserted or made within such six-year period, any insurance required to be maintained under this Section 6.4 shall be continued in respect of such claim until the final disposition thereof. If the Company or Surviving Company is unable to obtain the policies for an amount less than or equal to the Maximum Annual Premium, the Company or Surviving Company will instead obtain as much comparable insurance as possible for an annual premium equal to the Maximum Annual Premium. The costs of any D&O Insurance for the period after the Closing Date, and the cost of any D&O Tail to the extent in effect following the Closing Date, shall be borne by the Company and shall not be a SPAC Transaction Expense.

(c)            Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, this Section 6.4 shall survive the Closing indefinitely and shall be binding, jointly and severally, on the Surviving Company and the Company and all of their respective successors and assigns. In the event that the Surviving Company, the Company or any of their respective successors or assigns consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving company or entity of such consolidation or merger or transfers or conveys all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, the Surviving Company or the Company, respectively, shall ensure that proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of the Surviving Company or the Company, as the case may be, shall succeed to the obligations set forth in this Section 6.4.

(d)            If, due to a change in United States Tax Law following the date of this Agreement, Merger Sub II is not able to obtain the United States entity classification described in Section 5.11 (i.e., as a “disregarded entity”), the parties hereto shall use commercially reasonable efforts to consummate the acquisition of SPAC by the Company in a manner that is as equivalent as practicable, for United States Tax purposes, to the transactions described herein; provided that any action to be taken pursuant to this Section 8.4(d) shall not cause any material delay to, or result in any material adverse effect on, the Closing.

Other than with respect to any Shareholder Litigation where the parties identified in this sentence are adverse to each other or in the context of any Shareholder Litigation related to or arising out of a Company Acquisition Proposal or a SPAC Acquisition Proposal, (a) the Company shall give SPAC a reasonable opportunity to participate in the defense or settlement of any such Shareholder Litigation (and consider in good faith the suggestions of SPAC in connection therewith) brought against the Company, any of their respective Subsidiaries or any of their respective directors or officers and no such settlement shall be agreed to without the SPAC’s prior consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) and (b) SPAC shall give the Company a reasonable opportunity to participate in the defense or settlement of any such Shareholder Litigation (and consider in good faith the suggestions of the Company in connection therewith) brought against SPAC, any of its Subsidiaries or any of its directors or officers, and no such settlement shall be agreed to without the Company’s prior consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

Section 8.6            Forward Purchase Subscriptions. Unless otherwise consented in writing by each of the Company and SPAC (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), SPAC shall not permit any amendment or modification to be made to, any waiver (in whole or in part) or provide consent to (including consent to termination), any provision or remedy under, or any replacements of, any of the Forward Purchase Agreements. The SPAC shall procure that the Forward Purchase Investors perform their respective obligations under their respective Forward Purchase Agreements and complete the consummation of their respective Forward Purchase Subscriptions in full immediately prior to the First Merger Effective Time. Each of the parties shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Forward Purchase Agreements on the terms and conditions described therein, including maintaining in effect the Forward Purchase Agreements and to: (a) satisfy on a timely basis all conditions and covenants applicable to it in the Forward Purchase Agreements and otherwise comply with its obligations thereunder, (b) without limiting the rights of any party to enforce certain of such Forward Purchase Agreements in the event that all conditions in the Forward Purchase Agreements (other than conditions that the Company, SPAC or any of its Affiliates control the satisfaction of and other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the closings under the Forward Purchase Agreements) have been satisfied, consummate the transactions contemplated by the Forward Purchase Agreements at or prior to the Closing; (c) confer with each other regarding timing of the expected closings under the Forward Purchase Agreements; and (d) deliver notices to the applicable counterparties to the Forward Purchase Agreements sufficiently in advance of the Closing to cause them to fund their obligations as far in advance of the Closing as permitted by the Forward Purchase Agreements. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, SPAC shall give the Company prompt written notice: (A) of any breach or default (or any event or circumstance that, with or without notice, lapse of time or both, could give rise to any breach or default) by any party to any Forward Purchase Agreement known to; (B) of the receipt of any notice or other communication from any party to any Forward Purchase Agreement by SPAC with respect to any actual, potential, threatened or claimed expiration, lapse, withdrawal, material breach, material default, termination or repudiation by any party to any Forward Purchase Agreement or any provisions of any Forward Purchase Agreement; and (C) if SPAC does not expect to receive, all or any portion of the Forward Purchase Investment Amount on the terms, in the manner or from the Forward Purchase Investors as contemplated by the Forward Purchase Agreements. SPAC shall take all actions required under the Forward Purchase Agreements with respect to the timely book-entry or issuance and delivery of any physical certificates evidencing the SPAC Ordinary Shares and the SPAC Warrants as and when required under any such Forward Purchase Agreements.

Section 8.7            Use of Remaining Trust Fund Proceeds. Subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Article IX (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver of such conditions), of the Remaining Trust Fund Proceeds, an amount equal to the lesser of (a) 50% of all amounts in the Trust Account immediately prior to the Closing, without taking into account of the SPAC Shareholder Redemption Amount, and (b) all amounts in the Trust Account immediately prior to the Closing, taking into account the SPAC Shareholder Redemption Amount, shall remain with the Company and be (i) used in the operations of the Company or the members of the Company’s “qualified group” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.368-1(d)(4)(ii) and/or (ii) loaned to the Group Companies to be used in the business operations of the Group Companies, in each case, such amounts to be used in a manner that would not impair the ability of the Mergers, taken together, to qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368 of the Code. Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of SPAC or the Group Companies make any representation regarding whether the Mergers, taken together, will qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368 of the Code.

MISCELLANEOUS

The disclosure of any information shall not be deemed to constitute an acknowledgment that such information is required to be disclosed in connection with the representations and warranties made in this Agreement, nor shall such information be deemed to establish a standard of materiality or that the facts underlying such information constitute a Company Material Adverse Effect or a SPAC Material Adverse Effect, as applicable.

Section 11.11       Entire Agreement. This Agreement (together with the Disclosure Letters), the NDA and the other Transaction Documents constitute the entire agreement among the parties to this Agreement relating to the Transactions and supersede any other agreements, whether written or oral, that may have been made or entered into by or among any of the parties hereto or any of their respective Subsidiaries relating to the Transactions (including the Letter of Intent between SPAC and the Company, dated as of July 1, 2022). No representations, warranties, covenants, understandings, agreements, oral or otherwise, relating to the Transactions exist between such parties except as expressly set forth in the Transaction Documents.

Section 11.12       Amendments. This Agreement may be amended or modified in whole or in part prior to the First Merger Effective Time, only by a duly authorized agreement in writing in the same manner as this Agreement, which makes reference to this Agreement and which shall be executed by the Company, SPAC and the Merger Subs; provided, however, that after the Company Shareholder Approval or the SPAC Shareholders’ Approval has been obtained, there shall be no amendment that by applicable Law, the Company Charter or the SPAC Charter or their respective currently effective shareholders agreements requires further approval by the shareholders of the Company or the shareholders of SPAC, respectively, without such approval having been obtained.

Section 11.13       Publicity.

(a)            All press releases or other public communications relating to the Transactions, and the method of the release for publication thereof, shall, prior to the Closing, be subject to the prior mutual approval of SPAC and the Company; provided, that no such party shall be required to obtain consent pursuant to this Section 11.13(a) to the extent any proposed release or statement is substantially equivalent to the information that has previously been made public without breach of the obligation under this Section 11.13(a).

(b)            The restriction in Section 11.13(a) shall not apply to the extent the public announcement is required by applicable securities Law, any Governmental Authority or stock exchange rule; provided, however, that in such an event, the party making the announcement shall, to the extent practicable, use its commercially reasonable efforts to consult with the other party in advance as to its form, content and timing.

Section 11.14       Confidentiality. The existence and terms of this Agreement are confidential and may not be disclosed by either party hereto, their respective Affiliates or any Representatives of any of the foregoing, and shall at all times be considered and treated as “Confidential Information” as such term is defined in the NDA. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the preceding sentence or in the NDA, each party shall be permitted to disclose Confidential Information, including the Transaction Documents, the fact that the Transaction Documents have been signed and the status and terms of the Transactions to its existing or potential Affiliates, joint ventures, joint venture partners, shareholders, lenders, underwriters, financing sources and any Governmental Authority (including Nasdaq), and to the extent required, in regulatory filings, and their respective Representatives; provided that such parties entered into customary confidentiality agreements or are otherwise bound by fiduciary or other duties to keep such information confidential.

Section 11.15       Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held invalid or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction, the other provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. The parties hereto further agree that if any provision contained in this Agreement is, to any extent, held invalid or unenforceable in any respect under the Laws governing this Agreement, they shall take any actions necessary to render the remaining provisions of this Agreement valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by Law and, to the extent necessary, shall amend or otherwise modify this Agreement to replace any provision contained in this Agreement that is held invalid or unenforceable with a valid and enforceable provision giving effect to the intent of the parties hereto.

Section 11.16       Enforcement. The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the parties hereto shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to specific enforcement of the terms and provisions of this Agreement, in addition to any other remedy to which any party is entitled at law or in equity. In the event that any Action shall be brought in equity to enforce the provisions of this Agreement, no party shall allege, and each party hereby waives the defense, that there is an adequate remedy at law, and each party agrees to waiver any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection therewith.

Section 11.17       Non-Recourse. This Agreement may only be enforced against, and any claim or cause of action based upon, arising out of, or related to this Agreement or the Transactions may only be brought against, the Persons that are expressly named as parties hereto and then only with respect to the specific obligations set forth herein with respect to such party. Except to the extent a party hereto (and then only to the extent of the specific obligations undertaken by such party to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document), (i) no past, present or future director, officer, employee, incorporator, member, partner, shareholder, stockholder, Affiliate, agent, attorney, advisor or other Representative of any party hereto and (ii) no past, present or future director, officer, employee, incorporator, member, partner, shareholder, stockholder, Affiliate, agent, attorney, advisor or other Representative of any of the foregoing shall have any liability (whether in contract, tort, equity or otherwise) for any one or more of the representations, warranties, covenants, agreements or other obligations or liabilities of any one or more of the Company, the Merger Subs or SPAC under this Agreement of or for any claim based on, arising out of, or related to this Agreement or the Transactions (each of the Persons identified in the foregoing sub-clauses (a) or (b), a “Non-Recourse Party”, and collectively, the “Non-Recourse Parties”).

Section 11.18       Non-Survival of Representations, Warranties and Covenants. Except as otherwise contemplated by Section 10.2, the representations, warranties, covenants, obligations or other agreements in this Agreement or in any certificate (including confirmations therein), statement or instrument delivered pursuant to this Agreement, including any rights arising out of any breach of such representations, warranties, covenants, obligations, agreements and other provisions, shall not survive the Closing and shall terminate and expire upon the occurrence of the Closing (and there shall be no liability after the Closing in respect thereof), except for (a) those covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement that by their terms expressly apply in whole or in part after the Closing, and then only with respect to any breaches occurring after the Closing and (b) this Article XI.

Section 11.19       Conflicts and Privilege.

(a)            The Company, SPAC and the Merger Subs, on behalf of their respective successors and assigns, hereby agree that, in the event a dispute with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby arises after the Closing between or among (x) the Sponsor, the shareholders or holders of other equity interests of SPAC or the Sponsor or any of their respective directors, members, partners, officers, employees or Affiliates (other than the Company or the Surviving Company) (collectively, the “SMH Group”), on the one hand, and (y) the Company, the Surviving Company or any member of the YSB Group, on the other hand, any legal counsel, including ▇▇▇▇▇▇ LLP (“Cooley”) and Ogier, that represented SPAC or the Sponsor prior to the Closing may represent the Sponsor or any other member of the SMH Group, in such dispute even though the interests of such Persons may be directly adverse to the Company, the Surviving Company or the Surviving Company, and even though such counsel may have represented SPAC in a matter substantially related to such dispute, or may be handling ongoing matters for the Company, the Surviving Company, the Surviving Company or the Sponsor. The Company, SPAC and the Merger Subs, on behalf of their respective successors and assigns (including, after the Closing, the Surviving Company), further agree that, as to all legally privileged communications prior to the Closing (made in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and performance under, or any dispute or Action arising out of or relating to, this Agreement, any Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby) between or among SPAC, the Sponsor or any other member of the SMH Group, on the one hand, and Cooley or ▇▇▇▇▇, on the other hand, the attorney/client privilege and the expectation of client confidence shall survive the Closing and belong to the SMH Group after the Closing, and shall not pass to or be claimed or controlled by the Company or the Surviving Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any privileged communications or information shared by the Company prior to the Closing with SPAC or the Sponsor under a common interest agreement shall remain the privileged communications or information of the Company and the Surviving Company.

(b)            The Company, SPAC and the Merger Subs, on behalf of their respective successors and assigns, hereby agree that, in the event a dispute with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby arises after the Closing between or among (x) the shareholders or holders of other equity interests of the Company or any of their respective directors, members, partners, officers, employees or Affiliates (other than the Company or the Surviving Company) (collectively, the “YSB Group”), on the one hand, and (y) the Surviving Company or any member of the SMH Group, on the other hand, any legal counsel, including ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇ (“WSGR”) and ▇▇▇▇▇▇ and Calder (Hong Kong) LLP (“▇▇▇▇▇▇”) that represented the Company prior to the Closing may represent any member of the YSB Group in such dispute even though the interests of such Persons may be directly adverse to the Company and the Surviving Company, and even though such counsel may have represented the Company in a matter substantially related to such dispute, or may be handling ongoing matters for the Company and the Surviving Company. The Company, SPAC and the Merger Subs, on behalf of their respective successors and assigns (including, after the Closing, the Surviving Company), further agree that, as to all legally privileged communications prior to the Closing (made in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and performance under, or any dispute or Action arising out of or relating to, this Agreement, any Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby) between or among the Company or any member of the YSB Group, on the one hand, and WSGR or ▇▇▇▇▇▇, on the other hand, the attorney/client privilege and the expectation of client confidence shall survive the Closing and belong to the YSB Group after the Closing, and shall not pass to or be claimed or controlled by the Company or the Surviving Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any privileged communications or information shared by SPAC or Sponsor prior to the Closing with the Company under a common interest agreement shall remain the privileged communications or information of the Company or the Surviving Company.
