(d)The Parties shall not, and shall cause their respective Affiliates not to, acquire or agree to acquire, in any manner, any assets or any Person, if the entry into a definitive agreement related to such acquisition or the consummation of such acquisition would reasonably be expected to: (i) impose any delay in obtaining, or increase the risk of not obtaining, any Consent by a Governmental Authority required to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (ii) increase the risk that any Governmental Authority commences any Action or enters any order prohibiting the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or (iii) delay or prevent the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(a)Following the Prior Agreement Date and through the consummation of the Business Combination, none of the Company, the SPAC, or any successor or assign of the Company or SPAC, as the case may be, shall (i) execute, enter into, consent to or otherwise agree to any amendment or waiver, as applicable, of the Business Combination Agreement, the Transaction Agreements (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement) or the forms of Registration Rights Agreement, Certificate of Designations, or Amended Company LLCA, (ii)

(b)Following the Prior Agreement Date and through the consummation of the Business Combination, the Company shall not (and shall not permit any of its subsidiaries, nor any officer or director of the Company or any of its subsidiaries to) take any action that would cause the Company to become a Sanctioned Person.

5.7Tax Matters.

(a)For U.S. federal and applicable state and local income Tax purposes, the Buyer’s acquisition of the Purchased Interests is intended to be treated (i) to the extent of the Preferred Payment, as a “disguised sale” under the principles of Section 707 of the Code (i.e., as if a portion of Class A Units and Class A-1 Units (as defined in the Company LLCA) had been recapitalized into Class C Convertible Preferred Units of equal value and the Buyer purchased such Purchased Interests directly from the Class A Members and the Class A-1 Members (each as defined in the Company LLCA) in exchange for their shares of the Preferred Payment pursuant to

​

-39-

Sections 741, 751, and 1001 of the Code) and (ii) with respect to the remaining Purchased Interests acquired by the Buyer, as if the Company newly issued such Purchased Interests to the Buyer in exchange for the Buyer’s contribution of the portion of the Purchase Price in excess of the aggregate Preferred Payment to the Company pursuant to Section 721(a) of the Code. In connection with the acquisition, of the portion of the Purchased Interests described in clause (i), the Company shall prepare and deliver to the Buyer a schedule showing an allocation of the portion of the Purchase Price equal to the aggregate Preferred Payment (and any other amounts properly treated as consideration for applicable Tax purposes) among the assets of the Company in accordance with Sections 743(b), 755, and 1060 of the Code, which allocation shall be subject to the written consent of the Buyer (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed). In connection with the acquisition of the portion of the Purchased Interests described in clause (ii), the Company shall increase or decrease the capital accounts of its members to reflect a revaluation of partnership property in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f). The Company shall consult the Buyer in good faith with respect to any such adjustments and the adoption of any “allocation method” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-3 with respect any “reverse Section 704(c) allocations” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-3(a)(6)(i) resulting from such revaluation event. For the taxable year of the Company that includes such acquisition, (x) the Company shall use the “interim closing method” and the “monthly convention” under Section 706 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder for purposes of making allocations to its members, and (y) each Company Entity that is a partnership for U.S. federal income Tax purposes shall make or otherwise have in effect a valid election under Section 754 of the Code (and any similar election under applicable state or local Law), in each case unless the Buyer otherwise consents in writing that makes specific reference to this Section 5.7(a).

(b)The Parties shall prepare and file all Tax Returns consistent with, and shall not take any Tax position inconsistent with, the intended Tax treatment and elections set forth in Section 5.7(a), unless otherwise required pursuant to a final “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code (or any corresponding or similar provision of applicable state or local Tax Law).

(c)All transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration, value added and similar taxes and fees (“Transfer Taxes”) incurred in connection with this Agreement shall be borne by the Company. Any party required under applicable law to file any Tax Return or other document with respect to such Transfer Taxes shall file such tax return (and the other parties shall cooperate with respect thereto as necessary, and the Company shall reimburse any other party filing such tax return pursuant to this Section 5.7(c) for such Transfer Taxes).

(d)The Company hereby agrees that in the event of any Tax audit, investigation or other proceeding solely with respect to a taxable period (or portion thereof) ending on or before date of the Closing (a “Partnership Audit”), if such Partnership Audit results in a material “imputed underpayment” as such term is used in Section 6225 of the Code, the Company shall make any available “push out” election with respect to such Partnership Audit pursuant to Section 6226 of the Code.

(e)The Company shall provide the Buyer with copies of the IRS Form W-9 for each Unitholder (as defined in the Company LLCA) that receives any portion of the Preferred

​

-40-

Payment, as well as any other information reasonably requested by the Buyer to evidence that the Company has complied with its withholding obligations under Sections 1445 and 1446 of the Code with respect to such Unitholders.

​

-44-

such claim, (c) each individual item of Loss included in the amount so stated, to the extent known, and (d) the nature of the breach of representation, warranty, covenant or agreement with respect to which such Indemnified Party claims to be entitled to indemnification hereunder (all of the foregoing, the “Claim Information”), and shall provide any other information with respect thereto as the Indemnifying Party may reasonably request. The failure to provide such notice shall not release the Indemnifying Party from any of its obligations under this Article IX except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall in no event be liable in respect of any Loss, claim or liability from and after the expiration of six (6) months after the date the Indemnified Party receives written assertion of such Loss, claim or liability, unless the Claim Information in respect of such Loss, claim or liability has been provided to the Indemnifying Party pursuant to this Section 9.3. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to defend any such Third Party Claim and control the defense of such Third Party Claim; provided, however, that the Indemnified Party shall have the right to reasonably approve counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party, and if the Indemnifying Party, within ten (10) business days after notice of such Third Party Claim, fails to take appropriate steps to defend such Third Party Claim or the Third Party Claim relates to Taxes, the Indemnified Party will (upon further notice to the Indemnifying Party) have the right to control the defense of such Third Party Claim on behalf of and for the account and at the risk and expense of the Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of such Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnified Party; provided that if in the reasonable opinion of counsel for the Indemnified Party, there is a conflict of interest between the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnifying Party shall be responsible for the reasonable fees and expenses of one counsel to such Indemnified Party in connection with such defense. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in such defense and make available to the Indemnifying Party all witnesses, pertinent records, materials and information in the Indemnified Party’s possession or under the Indemnified Party’s control relating thereto as is reasonably required by the Indemnifying Party.

Whether or not the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall not admit any liability with respect to, or settle, compromise or discharge, or offer to settle, compromise or discharge, such Third Party Claim without the Indemnifying Party’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

9.4Direct Claims. If an Indemnified Party becomes aware of any breach of the representations or warranties of the Indemnifying Party hereunder or any other basis for indemnification under this Article IX, the Indemnified Party shall notify the Indemnifying Party in writing of the same within thirty (30) business days after becoming aware of such breach or

​

-45-

claim, with such notice containing the Claim Information, and shall provide any other information with respect thereto as the Indemnifying Party may reasonably request. The Indemnified Party shall reasonably cooperate and assist the Indemnifying Party in determining the validity of any claim for indemnity by the Indemnified Party and in otherwise resolving such matters. Such assistance and cooperation shall include providing reasonable access to and copies of information, records and documents relating to such matters, furnishing employees to assist in the investigation, defense and resolution of such matters and providing legal and business assistance with respect to such matters. Should the Indemnified Party fail to notify the Indemnifying Party within the time frame required above, the Indemnified Party nonetheless shall be entitled to indemnification by the Indemnifying Party to the extent that the Indemnifying Party has not established that it has been materially prejudiced by the failure to receive timely notice.

9.5Scope of Liability. Except in the case of matters relating to fraud, willful misconduct, gross negligence, or criminal acts or equitable relief (including the enforcement of any covenant requiring performance following the Closing), from and after the Closing, the sole and exclusive remedy of any Indemnified Party for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or other claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement and/or the transactions contemplated hereby is set forth in this Article IX.

In addition and without limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, from time to time after the Closing Date, the Buyer and the Company shall each execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, such other reasonable instruments of conveyance and transfer, and take such other reasonable actions as any Party may reasonably request, to more effectively convey and transfer full right, title and interest to, vest in, and place the Buyer in legal and actual possession of the Purchased Interests, including, in the case of the Company, executing and delivering to the Buyer such assignments, deeds, bills of sale, consents and other instruments as the Buyer or its counsel may reasonably request as necessary or desirable for such purpose.

10.2Choice of Law; Venue. All Actions (in contract or tort) arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby, any representation or warranty made in or in connection with this Agreement or as an inducement to enter into this Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware (including its statutes of limitations), without regard to conflicts of law principles.

10.3Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, INVOLVING OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY, WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE. THE PARTIES AGREE THAT ANY OF THEM MAY FILE A COPY OF THIS PARAGRAPH WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE KNOWING, VOLUNTARY AND BARGAINED-FOR AGREEMENT AMONG THE PARTIES IRREVOCABLY TO WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY AND THAT ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING WHATSOEVER AMONG THEM RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY SHALL INSTEAD BE TRIED IN A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION BY A JUDGE SITTING WITHOUT A JURY.

10.4Benefit, Assignment and Third Party Beneficiaries. Subject to provisions herein to the contrary, this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Parties and their respective legal representatives, successors and assigns; provided, however, that the Company may not assign this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Buyer; provided, further, that, other than in connection with a distribution of the Purchased Interests (or any securities issued or issuable on conversion or exchange thereof) to Buyer’s equity holders, the Buyer may not assign this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Company. This Agreement is intended solely for the benefit of the Parties and is not intended to, and shall not, create any enforceable third party beneficiary rights. Nothing in this Section 10.4 shall relieve Buyer of its obligations hereunder, including without limitation its obligation to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, pay all amounts due hereunder (including the Purchase Price, and all amounts due under the Transaction Documents) and satisfy its indemnification obligations hereunder.

10.5Cost of Transaction. The Company, at the direction of the Buyer, will pay those reasonable transaction expenses, including legal fees, advisory fees, and debt fees incurred by the Buyer in connection with the preparation, negotiation and execution of this Agreement and the Transaction Documents, and the performance and consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, in an amount not to exceed $1,000,000, with such expenses to be paid as follows: (a) $500,000 at the Closing and (b) $500,000 at the later of the closing of the Business Combination or December 31, 2023.

10.6Confidentiality. The Parties understand, acknowledge and agree that the applicable Confidentiality Agreement remains in full force and effect, and in addition, covenant and agree to keep confidential, in accordance with the provisions of the applicable Confidentiality Agreement and this Agreement, information provided pursuant to this Agreement. In addition to the foregoing, it is understood and acknowledged by the Parties that the information, documents and instruments delivered to each Party by the other Parties or agents thereof in connection with the negotiation of this Agreement or in compliance with the terms, conditions and covenants hereof are of a confidential and proprietary nature. Both prior to and following the Prior Agreement Date, the Parties shall, and shall cause their Representatives and Affiliates to, maintain the confidentiality of all such confidential information, documents or instruments delivered to it by the other Parties or Affiliates or agents thereof and shall not disclose such confidential information,

​

-47-

documents and instruments to any third parties other than its Representatives assisting in the transactions contemplated herein or as may be required by applicable Laws and, for a period of three (3) years immediately following the Closing Date, shall only use such information for purposes of the transactions contemplated hereby. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, Buyer or any of its members, limited partners, direct or indirect investors, or Affiliates may disclose any such confidential information on a confidential basis to members, limited partners, direct or indirect investors or prospective members, limited partners or direct or indirect investors of Buyer or such member, limited partner, direct or indirect investor or Affiliate, subject to such Persons having an obligation, or having agreed, to maintain the confidentiality of such confidential information. If the transactions contemplated hereby are not consummated, each Party shall return or destroy all such confidential information, documents and instruments and all copies thereof in its possession to the Party providing them upon the written request of the other Party. The terms and conditions of this Agreement and all other Transaction Documents shall remain confidential, and the Parties shall not disclose the Transaction Documents, or any part thereof, to any third party other than its Representatives assisting in the transactions contemplated herein or as may be required by applicable Laws. Notwithstanding the forgoing, the Party to whom such confidential information is disclosed (the “Receiving Party”) shall not have any obligations under this Agreement with respect to a specific portion of such confidential information if such Receiving Party can demonstrate with competent evidence that such portion of Confidential Information: (a) was in the public domain at the time it was disclosed to the Receiving Party; (b) entered the public domain subsequent to the time it was disclosed to the Receiving Party, through no fault of the Receiving Party; (c) was in the Receiving Party’s possession free of any obligation of confidence at the time it was disclosed to the Receiving Party; (d) was rightfully communicated to the Receiving Party free of any obligation of confidence subsequent to the time it was disclosed to the Receiving Party; or (e) was developed by employees or agents of the Receiving Party who had no access to any such confidential information. Any breach of this Section 10.6 or of the applicable Confidentiality Agreement by a Party would result in irreparable harm to the other Parties and therefore the Parties shall be entitled to seek an injunction to prohibit any such breach or anticipated breach, without the necessity of posting a bond in addition to other legal and equitable remedies. In the event of any inconsistency or conflict between this Section 10.6 and the applicable Confidentiality Agreement, this Section 10.6 shall prevail to the extent of the inconsistency or conflict.

10.7Public Announcements. No Party shall release, publish or otherwise make available to the public in any manner whatsoever any information or announcement regarding the transactions herein contemplated without the prior written consent of the other Parties, except for information and filings (a) reasonably necessary to be directed to Governmental Authorities to fully and lawfully effect the transactions herein contemplated or (b) required under Law or the rules of any stock exchange applicable to a Party or its Affiliates, in which case, the Party issuing such information or announcement shall provide written notice and a copy of such required information disclosure or announcement to the other Parties not less than two (2) business days prior to the date of such disclosure or announcement. Nothing in this Section 10.7 shall prevent the Buyer from disclosing the transactions herein contemplated to the limited partners or potential limited partners of the Buyer or their Affiliates.

10.8Waiver of Breach. Except as may be provided to the contrary elsewhere herein, no delay or omission by any Party to exercise any right or power under this Agreement or pursuant

​

-48-

to Law shall impair such right or power or be construed as a waiver thereof. The waiver by any Party of any representation, warranty, covenant or condition, breach or violation of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate as, or be construed to constitute, a waiver of any subsequent breach of the same or any other provision hereof. Any agreement on the part of either Party to any such waiver shall be valid only if set forth in a written instrument executed and delivered by a duly authorized officer on behalf of such Party.

10.9Notice. Any notice, demand or communication required, permitted or desired to be given hereunder shall be deemed effectively given when personally delivered with signed receipt, when delivered by electronic mail with electronic confirmation of delivery (unless not delivered on a business day or delivered after 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on a business day, in which case such delivery shall be deemed effective on the next succeeding business day), when delivered by overnight courier with signed receipt, or when delivered by registered United States mail, with postage prepaid and return receipt requested, addressed to the addresses below or to such other address as any Party may designate, with copies thereof to the respective counsel thereof as notified by such Party.

10.12Entire Agreement, Amendments and Counterparts. This Agreement and the other Transaction Documents supersede all previous Contracts, statements, representations, warranties, covenants, agreements or prior written material between the Parties regarding the subject matter hereof and thereof and constitute the entire agreement existing between or among the Parties respecting the subject matter hereof and thereof, and no Party shall be entitled to benefits other than those specified herein and therein.
