(b) by virtue of the Parent Merger and without any action on the part of any party hereto or any action on the part of the holders of securities of any party hereto, all of the securities of Pubco issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Parent Merger Effective Time shall be canceled and extinguished without any conversion thereof or consideration therefor.

Section 3.04 Exchange of Company Securities.

(a) Exchange Agent. Pubco shall appoint an exchange agent reasonably acceptable to the Company (the “Exchange Agent”) (it being understood and agreed, for the avoidance of doubt, that Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (or any of its Affiliates) shall be deemed to be acceptable to the Company) and enter into a paying and exchange agent agreement, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Pubco and the Company (the “Exchange Agent Agreement”) for the purpose of exchanging certificates representing the Capital Stock (collectively, the “Certificates”), if any, and each share of Capital Stock held in book-entry form on the stock transfer books of the Company immediately prior to the Company Merger Effective Time, in either case, for the portion of the Aggregate Company Merger Consideration issuable in respect of such Capital Stock pursuant to Section 3.01(b) on the terms and subject to the other conditions set forth in this Agreement. The Company shall reasonably cooperate with Pubco and the Exchange Agent in connection with the appointment of the Exchange Agent, the entry into the Exchange Agent Agreement (including, if necessary or advisable, as determined in good faith by Pubco, by also entering into the Exchange Agent Agreement in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Company) and the performance of the covenants and agreements in this Section 3.04(a) (including the provision of any information, or the entry into any agreements or documentation, necessary or advisable, as determined in good faith by ▇▇▇▇▇, or otherwise required by the Exchange Agent Agreement for the Exchange Agent to fulfill its duties as the Exchange Agent in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby).

(b) Exchange Procedures.

(i) On the Closing Date, Pubco shall deposit, or shall cause to be deposited, with the Exchange Agent, for the benefit of the Participating Securityholders, for exchange and issuance in accordance with this ARTICLE III, the number of Pubco Ordinary Shares sufficient to deliver the Aggregate Company Merger Consideration issuable pursuant to this Agreement (such Pubco Ordinary Shares being hereinafter referred to as the “Exchange Fund”).

(ii) Pubco shall cause the Exchange Agent, pursuant to irrevocable instructions, to issue such Aggregate Company Merger Consideration out of the Exchange Fund in accordance with the Company Merger Payment Schedule and the other applicable provisions contained in this Agreement. The Exchange Fund shall not be used for any other purpose.

(iii) Upon the delivery of the Company Merger Payment Schedule to the Exchange Agent in accordance with Section 3.04(i), Pubco, Parent and the Company shall take reasonable steps to cause the applicable Aggregate Company Merger Consideration to be issued to the applicable Participating Securityholder in book-entry form as soon as reasonably practicable following the Closing Date; provided that the applicable Aggregate Company Merger Consideration shall not be issued with respect to shares of Capital Stock represented by a Certificate until the applicable holder of such Capital Stock has surrendered such Certificate to the Exchange Agent.

(iv) If any Aggregate Company Merger Consideration is to be issued to a Person other than the holder of Capital Stock in whose name the surrendered Certificate or the transferred shares of Capital Stock in book-entry form is registered, it shall be a condition to the issuance of the applicable Aggregate Company Merger Consideration that, in addition to any other requirements set forth in the Exchange Agent Agreement, (A) either such Certificate shall be properly endorsed or shall otherwise be in proper form for transfer or such share of Capital Stock in book-entry form shall be properly transferred and (B) the Person requesting such consideration pay to the Exchange Agent any transfer or similar Taxes required as a result of such consideration being issued to a Person other than the registered holder of such Certificate or share of Capital Stock in book-entry form or establish to the satisfaction of the Exchange Agent that such transfer or similar Taxes have been paid or are not payable.

(c) No Further Rights in Capital Stock. The Aggregate Company Merger Consideration issuable upon conversion of the Capital Stock in accordance with the terms hereof shall be deemed to have been issued in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such Capital Stock.

(d) Adjustments to Aggregate Company Merger Consideration. The Aggregate Company Merger Consideration shall be equitably adjusted to reflect the effect of any stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend (including any dividend or distribution of securities convertible into shares of Pubco Common Stock), reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, combination, merger, sale or exchange of shares or other like change with respect to shares of Pubco Common Stock occurring on or after the date hereof and prior to the Company Merger Effective Time.

(e) Termination of Exchange Fund. Any portion of the Exchange Fund that remains undistributed to the Participating Securityholders for one (1) year after the Company Merger Effective Time shall be delivered to Pubco, upon demand, and any Participating Securityholder who has not theretofore complied with this Section 3.04 shall thereafter look only to Parent for such holder’s Per Share Company Merger Consideration. Any portion of the Exchange Fund remaining unclaimed by Participating Securityholders as of a date which is immediately prior to such time as such amounts would otherwise escheat to or become property of any Governmental Authority shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, become the property of Pubco free and clear of any claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto.

(f) No Liability. None of the Exchange Agent, Pubco, Parent or the Company Surviving Subsidiary shall be liable to any Participating Securityholder for any Pubco Common Stock (or dividends or distributions with respect thereto) or cash delivered to a public official pursuant to any abandoned property, escheat or similar Law.

(g) Withholding Rights. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, each of Pubco, Parent, the Company Merger Sub, the Company, the Company Surviving Subsidiary and the Exchange Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from amounts (including shares, options or other property) otherwise payable, issuable or transferable pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to such payment, issuance or transfer under the Code or any provision of state, local or non-U.S. Tax Law. To the extent that amounts are so deducted or withheld and timely paid to the applicable Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Law, such deducted or withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid, issued or transferred to the Participating Securityholder (or intended recipients) in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made. The parties hereto shall cooperate in good faith to eliminate or reduce any such deduction or withholding.

(h) Fractional Shares. No certificates or scrip or shares representing fractional Pubco Ordinary Shares shall be issued upon the exchange of Capital Stock and such fractional share interests will not entitle the owner thereof to vote or to have any rights of a stockholder of Pubco or a holder of shares of Pubco Common Stock. In lieu of any fractional share of Pubco Common Stock to which any holder of Capital Stock would otherwise be entitled, the Exchange Agent shall round up or down to the nearest whole share of Pubco Common Stock, as applicable, with a fraction of 0.5 rounded up. No cash settlements shall be made with respect to fractional shares eliminated by rounding.

(i) Company Merger Payment Schedule. At least two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall deliver to Pubco, Parent and the Exchange Agent a schedule (the “Company Merger Payment Schedule”) showing the percentage allocation of the aggregate Per Share Company Merger Consideration to each Participating Securityholder at the Closing (such Participating Securityholder’s “Pro Rata Share”) and the corresponding number of shares of Pubco Common Stock to be issued to such Participating Securityholder pursuant to Section 3.01.

Section 3.05 Stock Transfer Books. At the Company Merger Effective Time, the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed and there shall be no further registration of transfers of Company Ordinary Shares thereafter on the records of the Company. From and after the Company Merger Effective Time, the holders of the Capital Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Company Merger Effective Time shall cease to have any rights with respect to such Capital Stock, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement or by Law.

On or prior to the Closing Date, Parent shall cause the Legacy Parent Transaction Expenses to be forgiven, assigned to Sponsor without recourse to Parent, or to be satisfied in full with no further recourse to Parent.

Section 3.07 Dissenters’ Rights.

(a) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary and to the extent available under the Cayman Act, Company Ordinary Shares that are outstanding immediately prior to the Company Merger Effective Time and that are held by shareholders of the Company who have validly exercised in writing their dissenters’ rights for such Company Ordinary Shares in accordance with Section 238 of the Cayman Action, and have otherwise complied in all respects with the provisions of the Cayman Act relevant to the exercise and perfection of dissenters’ rights (collectively, the “Dissenting Company Shares”) shall not be converted into, and such stockholders shall have no right to receive, the applicable Aggregate Company Merger Consideration unless and until such stockholder withdraws or otherwise loses such dissenters’ rights (through failure to perfect such dissenters’ rights or otherwise) under the Cayman Act. From and after the Company Merger Effective Time, (A) the Dissenting Company Shares shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled and extinguished by virtue of the Company Merger and shall cease to exist and (B) the holders of Dissenting Company Shares shall be entitled only to such rights as may be granted to them under Section 238 of the Cayman Act and shall not be entitled to exercise any of the voting rights or other rights of a shareholder of the Company Surviving Subsidiary or any of its Affiliates (including Pubco); provided, however, that if any holder of Dissenting Company Shares effectively withdraws or loses such dissenters’ rights (through failure to perfect such dissenters’ rights or otherwise) under the Cayman Act, then the Company Ordinary Shares held by such Dissenting Company Shareholder (1) shall no longer be deemed to be Dissenting Company Shares and (2) shall be treated as if they had been converted automatically at the Company Merger Effective Time into the right to receive the applicable portion of the Company Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 3.01(a)(i) in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Each holder of Dissenting Company Shares who becomes entitled to payment for his, her or its Dissenting Company Shares pursuant to the Cayman Act shall receive payment thereof from Company in accordance with the Cayman Act. The Company shall give Parent (prior to the Closing) or the Sponsor (after the Closing) prompt notice of any written demands for dissenters’ rights in respect of any Company Ordinary Share, attempted withdrawals of such demands and any other material developments related to any such demands and provide copies of all documents, instruments or other communications received by Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Representatives related thereto and shall otherwise keep Parent (prior to the Closing) or the Sponsor (after the Closing) reasonably apprised as to the status and developments related to such matters, and Parent (prior to the Closing) or the Sponsor (after the Closing) shall have the opportunity to participate in all negotiations and proceedings with respect to all such demands. The Company shall not, except with the prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) of Parent (prior to the Closing) or the Sponsor (after the Closing), make any payment or deliver any consideration (including Pubco Ordinary Shares) with respect to, settle or offer or agree to settle any such demands.

(b) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary and to the extent available under the DGCL, shares of Parent Common Stock that are outstanding immediately prior to the Parent Merger Effective Time and that are held by stockholders of Parent who shall have neither voted in favor of the Parent Merger nor consented thereto in writing and who shall have demanded properly in writing appraisal for such shares of Parent Common Stock in accordance with the DGCL and otherwise complied with all of the provisions of the DGCL relevant to the exercise and perfection of dissenters’ rights (“Dissenting Parent Shares”) shall not be converted into, and such stockholders shall have no right to receive, shares of Pubco Common Stock in accordance with the terms of this ARTICLE III unless and until such stockholder fails to perfect or withdraws or otherwise loses his, her or its right to appraisal and payment under the DGCL. Shares held by any stockholder of Parent who fails to perfect or who effectively withdraws or otherwise loses his, her or its dissenters’ rights to appraisal of such shares of Parent Common Stock under the DGCL, shall thereupon be deemed to have been converted into, and to have become exchangeable for, as of the Effective Time, shares of Pubco Common Stock, without any interest thereon, in accordance with the terms of this ARTICLE III.

(g) Each Plan that is intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code has (i) timely received a favorable determination letter from the IRS covering all of the provisions applicable to the Plan for which determination letters are currently available that the Plan is so qualified and each trust established in connection with such Plan is exempt from U.S. federal income Tax under Section 501(a) of the Code or (ii) is entitled to rely on a favorable opinion or advisory letter from the IRS, and to the knowledge of Company, no fact or event has occurred since the date of such determination or opinion letter or letters from the IRS that could reasonably be expected to adversely affect the qualified status of any such Plan or the exempt status of any such trust.

(h) There has not been any non-exempt prohibited transaction (within the meaning of Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code) nor any reportable events (within the meaning of Section 4043 of ERISA) with respect to any Plan that could reasonably be expected to result in material liability to the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries.

No Company IP, or, to the Company’s Knowledge, Company Licensed IP, has been adjudged by a court of competent jurisdiction invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part. The Company IP constitutes all Intellectual Property rights necessary for, or to the knowledge of the Company, otherwise used in, the operation of the business of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries as currently conducted and is sufficient for the conduct of such business as currently conducted, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby will not conflict with, alter or impair any such rights.

To the Company’s knowledge, the Company and the Company Subsidiaries have complied in all material respects with the terms of each agreement pursuant to which Intellectual Property has been licensed to the Company or one of the Company Subsidiaries, and all such agreements are in full force and effect.

(d) The Company and each of its applicable Company Subsidiaries have taken and take reasonable actions to maintain, protect and enforce the secrecy, confidentiality and value of its Trade Secrets and other material Confidential Information, including requiring all Persons having access thereto to execute written non-disclosure agreements. Neither the Company nor any Company Subsidiary has disclosed any Trade Secrets or other Confidential Information to any other Person other than pursuant to a written confidentiality agreement under which such other Person agrees to maintain the confidentiality of and protect such Confidential Information.

(f) To the Company’s knowledge, there is no prior art or other information that may render any Patent within the Company Owned IP invalid or unenforceable or that may render any Patent application within such Intellectual Property unpatentable that has not been disclosed to the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office or any foreign equivalent thereto. To the Company’s knowledge, there are no material defects in any of the Company Owned IP. The product candidates described in the Company Disclosure Schedules as under development or commercialization by the Company or any Company Subsidiary fall within the scope of the claims of one or more Patent or pending Patent application owned by, or exclusively licensed to, the Company or any Company Subsidiary.

To the Company’s knowledge, no current or former employee, director or officer of the Company or one of the Company Subsidiaries or any consultant who has contributed, developed or conceived of any Company Owned IP is or has been in violation of any term of any employment or consulting contract, patent disclosure agreement, invention assignment agreement, non-competition agreement, non-solicitation agreement, nondisclosure agreement or any restrictive covenant to or with a former employer where the basis of such violation relates to such employee’s employment or other engagement with the Company or Company Subsidiary.

(i) No Related Party, nor any current or former partner, director, stockholder, officer or employee of the Company or Company Subsidiaries or of any Related Party will, after giving effect to the transactions contemplated hereby, own, license or retain any rights in any of the Intellectual Property owned, used or held for use (including for defensive purposes) by the Company in the conduct of the business as currently conducted.

(j) Section 4.13(j) of the Company Disclosure Schedule sets forth a list, as of the date of this Agreement, of all Open Source Software that has been used in connection with any Products.

The Company and each of the Company Subsidiaries maintain commercially reasonable disaster recovery, business continuity and risk assessment plans, procedures and facilities. To the Company’s knowledge, in the three (3) years prior to the date of this Agreement, there has not been any failure with respect to any of the Business Systems that are material to the conduct of the Company’s and the Company Subsidiaries’ business that has not been remedied or replaced in all material respects.

The Company and the Company Subsidiaries have each implemented data security safeguards that are designed to protect the security and integrity of the Business Systems and any Personal Information and that are otherwise consistent with the Data Security Requirements. The Company’s and the Company Subsidiaries’ employees and contractors receive commercially reasonable training on information security issues. Section 4.13(l) of the Company Disclosure Schedule identifies any Contracts under which Business Data or Personal Information of the Company or the Company Subsidiaries is hosted or processed on the systems or networks of third parties, including cloud computing arrangements.

The Company and the Company Subsidiaries are not subject to any material legal obligations, including based on the Transactions contemplated hereunder, that would prohibit Merger Sub, or Parent from receiving, using or otherwise Processing Personal Information after the Closing Date, in a similar manner in which the Company and the Company Subsidiaries receive, use and otherwise Process such Personal Information immediately prior to the Closing Date or result in material liabilities in connection with Data Security Requirements.

There are no separate contracts, agreements, side letters or other understandings (whether written or unwritten, express or implied): (i) between Parent and the Trustee that would cause the description of the Trust Agreement in the Parent SEC Reports to be inaccurate in any material respect; or (ii) to the knowledge of Parent, that would entitle any Person (other than stockholders of Parent who shall have elected to exercise their Redemption Rights pursuant to the Parent Organizational Documents) to any portion of the proceeds in the Trust Account. Prior to the Closing, none of the funds held in the Trust Account have been released except: (A) to pay income and franchise Taxes from any interest income earned in the Trust Account; and (B) upon the exercise of Redemption Rights in accordance with the provisions of the Parent Organizational Documents. As of the date hereof, there are no Actions pending or, to the knowledge of Parent, threatened in writing with respect to the Trust Account. As of the date hereof, assuming the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Company herein and the compliance by the Company with its obligations hereunder, Parent has no reason to believe that any of the conditions to the use of funds in the Trust Account will not be satisfied or funds available in the Trust Account will not be available to Parent at the Effective Time.

Other than consultants and advisors retained in the ordinary course of business (including in connection with the Transactions) or as described in the Parent SEC Reports, Parent has never retained any contractors. Other than reimbursement of any out-of-pocket expenses incurred by ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s officers and directors in connection with activities on Parent’s behalf in an aggregate amount not in excess of the amount of cash held by Parent outside of the Trust Account, Parent has no unsatisfied material liability with respect to any employee, officer or director.

Except as set forth in Section 5.14 of the Parent Disclosure Schedule, neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement nor the other Ancillary Agreements nor the consummation of the Transactions will (i) result in any payment becoming due to any director, officer or employee of Parent, (ii) result in the acceleration of the time of payment or vesting of any such benefits, or (iii) give rise to any “excess parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code. There is no contract, agreement, plan or arrangement to which Parent is a party which requires payment by any party of a Tax gross-up or Tax reimbursement payment to any Person.

Section 6.03 Claims Against Trust Account. Reference is made to the final prospectus of Parent, dated as of November 23, 2020 and filed with the SEC (Registration No. 333-249677) on November 24, 2020 (the “Prospectus”). The Company hereby represents and warrants that it understands that Parent has established the Trust Account containing the proceeds of its initial public offering (the “IPO”) and the overallotment shares acquired by its underwriters and from certain private placements occurring simultaneously with the IPO (including interest accrued from time to time thereon) for the benefit of Parent’s public stockholders (including overallotment shares acquired by Parent’s underwriters, the “Public Stockholders”), and that, except as otherwise described in the Prospectus, Parent may disburse monies from the Trust Account only: (a) to the Public Stockholders in the event they elect to redeem their Parent Common Stock in connection with the consummation of Parent’s initial business combination (as such term is used in the Prospectus) (the “Business Combination”) or in connection with an extension of its deadline to consummate a Business Combination, (b) to the Public Stockholders if Parent fails to consummate a Business Combination within 12 months after the closing of the IPO, subject to extension by amendment to Parent’s organizational documents, (c) with respect to any interest earned on the amounts held in the Trust Account, amounts as necessary to pay any Taxes and up to $100,000 in dissolution expenses, or (d) to Parent after or concurrently with the consummation of a Business Combination. For and in consideration of Parent entering into this Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the Company hereby agrees on behalf of itself and its Affiliates that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, neither the Company nor any of its 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 proposed or actual business relationship between Parent or its Representatives, on the one hand, and the Company or its Representatives, on the other hand, or any other matter, and regardless of whether such claim arises based on contract, tort, equity or any other theory of legal liability (any and all such claims are collectively referred to hereafter as the “Released Claims”). The Company on behalf of itself and its Affiliates hereby irrevocably waives any Released Claims that the Company 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 with Parent or its Representatives 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 Parent or its Affiliates). The Company agrees and acknowledges that such irrevocable waiver is material to this Agreement and specifically relied upon by Parent and its Affiliates to induce Parent to enter into this Agreement, and the Company further intends and understands such waiver to be valid, binding and enforceable against the Company and each of its Affiliates under applicable Law. To the extent the Company or any of its Affiliates commences any action or proceeding based upon, in connection with, relating to or arising out of any matter relating to Parent or its Representatives, which proceeding seeks, in whole or in part, monetary relief against Parent or its Representatives, the Company hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Company’s and its Affiliates’ sole remedy shall be against funds held outside of the Trust Account and that such claim shall not permit the Company or its Affiliates (or any Person claiming on any of their behalf or in lieu of any of them) to have any claim against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) or any amounts contained therein. In the event (a) the Company or any of its Affiliates commences any action or proceeding based upon, in connection with, relating to or arising out of any matter relating to Parent or its Representatives, which proceeding seeks, in whole or in part, relief against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) or the Public Stockholders of Parent, whether in the form of money damages or injunctive relief, and (b) Parent and its Representatives, as applicable, prevails in such action or proceeding, Parent or its Representatives, as applicable, shall be entitled to recover from the Company and its Affiliates the associated legal fees and costs in connection with any such action. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the provisions of this paragraph shall survive indefinitely with respect to the obligations set forth in this Agreement.

(a) Pubco shall, or shall cause the Company Surviving Subsidiary and each of its Subsidiaries, as applicable, to provide the employees of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries who remain employed immediately after the Effective Time (the “Continuing Employees”) credit for purposes of eligibility to participate, vesting and determining the level of benefits, as applicable, under any Employee Benefit Plan established or maintained by the Company Surviving Subsidiary or any of its Subsidiaries (excluding any retiree health plans or programs or defined benefit retirement plans or programs) for service accrued or deemed accrued prior to the Company Merger Effective Time with the Company or any Company Subsidiary; provided, however, that such crediting of service shall not operate to duplicate any benefit or the funding of any such benefit. In addition, Parent shall use reasonable best efforts to (i) cause to be waived any eligibility waiting periods, any evidence of insurability requirements and the application of any pre-existing condition limitations under each of the Employee Benefit Plans established or maintained by the Company Surviving Subsidiary or any of its Subsidiaries that cover the Continuing Employees or their dependents, and (ii) cause any eligible expenses incurred by any Continuing Employee and his or her covered dependents, during the portion of the plan year in which the Closing occurs, under those health and welfare benefit plans in which such Continuing Employee currently participates to be taken into account under those health and welfare benefit plans in which such Continuing Employee participates subsequent to the Closing Date for purposes of satisfying all deductible, coinsurance, and maximum out-of-pocket requirements applicable to such Continuing Employee and his or her covered dependents for the applicable plan year. Following the Closing, the Company Surviving Subsidiary will honor all accrued but unused vacation and other paid time off of the Continuing Employees that existed immediately prior to the Closing with respect to the calendar year in which the Closing occurs.

Nothing contained in this Agreement, express or implied, shall constitute an amendment or modification of any Employee Benefit Plan or other employee benefit arrangement or shall require any of the Company, Pubco, Parent, the Parent Surviving Subsidiary, the Company Surviving Subsidiary or any of its subsidiaries to continue any Plan or other employee benefit arrangements, or prevent their amendment, modification or termination.

Section 7.08 Directors’ and Officers’ Indemnification.

(a) The certificate of incorporation of the Company Surviving Subsidiary and Pubco shall each contain provisions no less favorable with respect to indemnification, advancement or expense reimbursement than are set forth in the Company Memorandum and Articles, which provisions shall not be amended, repealed or otherwise modified for a period of six (6) years from the Company Merger Effective Time in any manner that would affect adversely the rights thereunder of individuals who, at or prior to the Company Merger Effective Time, were directors, officers, employees, fiduciaries or agents of the Company, unless such modification shall be required by applicable Law. From and after the Company Merger Effective Time, Pubco agrees that it shall indemnify and hold harmless each present and former director and officer of the Company against any costs or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages or liabilities incurred in connection with any claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, arising out of or pertaining to matters existing or occurring at or prior to the Company Merger Effective Time whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Company Merger Effective Time, to the fullest extent that the Company would have been permitted under applicable Law and the Company Memorandum and Articles in effect on the date of this Agreement to indemnify such Person (including the advancing of expenses as incurred to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law). Pubco further agrees that with respect to the provisions of the bylaws and certificate of incorporation or limited liability company agreement, as applicable, of the Company Subsidiaries relating to indemnification, advancement or expense reimbursement, such provisions shall not be amended, repealed or otherwise modified for a period of six (6) years from the Company Merger Effective Time in any manner that would affect adversely the rights thereunder of individuals who, at or prior to the Company Merger Effective Time, were directors, officers, employees, fiduciaries or agents of such Company Subsidiary, unless such modification shall be required by applicable Law.

(b) For a period of six (6) years from the Company Merger Effective Time, Pubco shall maintain in effect directors’ and officers’ liability insurance covering those Persons who are currently covered by the Company’s directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy (true, correct and complete copies of which have been heretofore made available to Pubco or its agents or Representatives in the Virtual Data Room) on terms not less favorable than the terms of such current insurance coverage, except that in no event shall Pubco be required to pay an annual premium for such insurance in excess of 250% of the aggregate annual premium payable by the Company for such insurance policy for the year ended December 31, 2023 (the “Maximum Annual Premium”); provided, however, that (i) Pubco may cause coverage to be extended under the current directors’ and officers’ liability insurance by obtaining a six (6)-year “tail” policy containing terms not less favorable than the terms of such current insurance coverage with respect to claims existing or occurring at or prior to the Company Merger Effective Time, and (ii) if any claim is asserted or made within such six (6)-year period, any insurance required to be maintained under this Section 7.08(b) shall be continued in respect of such claim until the final disposition thereof.

If at any time after the Parent Merger Effective Time or Company Merger Effective Time further action is necessary or desirable to the parties to carry out the purposes of this Agreement, the proper officers and directors of each party shall use their reasonable best efforts to take all such action.

(b) During the Interim Period, each of the parties shall keep each other apprised of the status of matters relating to the Transactions, including promptly notifying the other parties of any communication it or any of its Affiliates receives from any Governmental Authority relating to the matters that are the subject of this Agreement and permitting the other parties to review in advance, and to the extent practicable consult about, any proposed communication by such party to any Governmental Authority in connection with the Transactions. During the Interim Period, no party to this Agreement shall agree to participate in any meeting, video or telephone conference, or other communications with any Governmental Authority in respect of any filings, investigation or other inquiry unless it consults with the other parties in advance and, to the extent permitted by such Governmental Authority, gives the other parties the opportunity to attend and participate at such meeting, conference or other communications.

(d) During the Interim Period, Parent shall use reasonable best efforts to cause holders of Parent Common Stock not to exercise or otherwise waive their Redemption Rights, including by entry into binding non-redemption agreements. Parent shall not enter into any Contracts between Parent or any of its Affiliates and any holder of Parent Common Stock or any of its Affiliates relating to any such waiver of Redemption Rights without the prior written consent of the Company; provided that the Sponsor shall be expressly permitted to transfer, assign or convey shares of Parent Common Stock beneficially owned by the Sponsor in connection with such Contracts to secure waivers of the Redemption Rights; provided, further, that any shares of Parent Common Stock transferred, assigned or conveyed in connection with securing such waivers of Redemption Rights shall remain obligated under the terms of the Sponsor Support Agreement.

Thereafter, between the date of this Agreement and the Closing Date (or the earlier termination of this Agreement in accordance with ARTICLE IX) unless otherwise prohibited by applicable Law or the requirements of the Nasdaq Capital Market, each of Parent and Pubco, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand, shall use its reasonable best efforts to consult with each other before issuing any press release or otherwise making any public statements with respect to this Agreement, the Mergers or any of the other Transactions, and shall not issue any such press release or make any such public statement without the prior written consent of the other party. Furthermore, nothing contained in this Section 7.11 shall prevent Parent or the Company or its respective Affiliates from furnishing customary or other reasonable information concerning the Transactions to their investors and prospective investors that is substantively consistent with public statements previously consented to by the other party in accordance with this Section 7.11.

Section 7.12 Tax Matters.

(a) None of the parties hereto shall (and each shall cause its Affiliates not to) take or cause to be taken (or fail to take or cause to be taken) any action, which action (or failure to act), whether before or after the Effective Time, would reasonably be expected to prevent or impede the Mergers from qualifying for the Intended Tax Treatment.

The parties hereto shall prepare and file all Tax Returns and otherwise report the Mergers consistent with the Intended Tax Treatment (including attaching a statement described in Treasury Regulations Sections 1.368-3(a) and 1.368-3(b) to applicable Tax Returns), unless otherwise required pursuant to a “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code.

In the event either (i) Parent or the Company seeks a Tax opinion from its respective Tax advisor regarding the Intended Tax Treatment or (ii) the SEC requests or requires such Tax opinion, each party hereto shall use reasonable efforts to execute and deliver customary Tax representation letters as the applicable Tax advisor may reasonably request in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such Tax advisor. In the event the SEC requests or requires a Tax opinion with respect to the Mergers, Parent shall use reasonable best efforts to cause its legal counsel to deliver such Tax opinion, subject to customary assumptions and limitations, to Parent, and the Company shall use reasonable best efforts to cause a nationally recognized accounting firm to deliver such Tax opinion, subject to customary assumptions and limitations, to the Company.
