(i) each share of Company Common Stock (including shares of Company Common Stock resulting from the Company Preferred Conversion and the Company Convertible Note Conversion and shares of Company Restricted Stock, but excluding any Cancelled Shares or Dissenting Shares) that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be cancelled and converted into the number of shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the Exchange Ratio (rounded to the nearest whole number) (which consideration shall hereinafter be referred to as the “Per Share Merger Consideration”); provided that each share of Parent Common Stock that is issued upon the conversion of Company Restricted Stock pursuant to this Section 3.01(b)(i) (“Parent Restricted Stock”) shall continue to have, and be subject to, the same terms and conditions of such share of Company Restricted Stock immediately prior to the Effective Time, including any vesting or forfeiture conditions. Each share of Company Common Stock converted into the right to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration pursuant to this Section 3.01(b)(i) will no longer be outstanding, will automatically be cancelled and retired and will cease to exist, and each holder of (A) any Certificate formerly representing any such shares of Company Common Stock or (B) any book-entry account which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented shares of Company Common Stock will, subject to applicable Law in the case of Dissenting Shares, cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration for each such share of Company Common Stock in accordance with this Section 3.01(b)(i);

(ii) each share of Capital Stock owned by Parent or Merger Sub or held in the treasury of the Company, or owned by any of their respective direct or indirect wholly-owned Subsidiaries immediately prior to the Effective Time (collectively, the “Cancelled Shares”), shall be canceled without any conversion thereof and no payment or distribution shall be made with respect thereto;

(iii) each share of Merger Sub Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into and exchanged for one validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Surviving Corporation;

(iv) each Company Option that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be assumed by Parent and converted into an option to purchase shares of Parent Common Stock (each, a “Converted Option”), provided that the assumption and conversion of any such Company Options that are incentive stock options under Section 422 of the Code will be effected in a manner that is intended to be consistent with the applicable requirements of Section 424 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder. Each Converted Option will have and be subject to the same terms and conditions (including vesting and exercisability terms) as were applicable to such Company Option immediately before the Effective Time, except that (A) each Converted Option will be exercisable for that number of shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the product (rounded to the nearest whole number) of (1) the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to the Company Option immediately before the Effective Time and (2) the Exchange Ratio, and (B) the per share exercise price for each share of Parent Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Converted Option will be equal to the quotient (rounded up to the nearest whole cent) obtained by dividing (1) the exercise price per share of Company Common Stock of such Company Option immediately before the Effective Time by (2) the Exchange Ratio; provided, however, that the exercise price and the number of shares of Parent Common Stock purchasable under each Converted Option will be determined in a manner consistent with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder;

(v) each Company Warrant that remains outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the Effective Time (and which is not automatically and fully exercised in accordance with its terms prior to the Effective Time) shall automatically, without any action on the part of the holder thereof, be converted into a warrant to purchase shares of Parent Common Stock (each, a “Parent Assumed Warrant”) determined in accordance with the terms of such Company Warrants. Each Parent Assumed Warrant shall continue to be governed by the same terms and conditions (including vesting and exercisability terms) as were applicable to the corresponding former Company Warrant immediately prior to the Effective Time, except that (A) each Parent Assumed Warrant will be exercisable for that number of shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the product (rounded to the nearest whole number) of (1) the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to the corresponding Company Warrant immediately before the Effective Time and (2) the Exchange Ratio, and (B) the per share exercise price for each share of Parent Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Parent Assumed Warrant will be equal to the quotient (rounded up to the nearest whole cent) obtained by dividing (1) the exercise price per share of Company Common Stock of such corresponding Company Option immediately before the Effective Time by (2) the Exchange Ratio.

(vi) each Company RSU that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be assumed by ▇▇▇▇▇▇ and converted into a restricted stock unit in respect of shares of Parent Common Stock (each, a “Converted RSU”). Each Converted RSU will have and be subject to the same terms and conditions (including vesting, forfeiture and acceleration terms) as were applicable to the corresponding Company RSU immediately before the Effective Time, except that such Converted RSU will be in respect of a number of shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the product (rounded to the nearest whole number) of (x) the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to the Company RSU immediately before the Effective Time and (y) the Exchange Ratio.

(c) Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall use reasonable best efforts to take all actions reasonably necessary to effect the transactions contemplated by Section 3.01(a) and Section 3.01(b) in accordance with the Company Charter, the bylaws of the Company and the Company Equity Incentive Plan and any Contract applicable to any Company Awards, including delivering all required notices, obtaining all necessary approvals and consents, and delivering evidence reasonably satisfactory to Parent that all necessary determinations by the Company Board or applicable committee of the Company Board to assume and convert Company Awards in accordance with Section 3.01(a) and Section 3.01(b) have been made, and to ensure that no Converted RSU or Converted Option may vest prior to the effective date of a registration statement on Form S-8 or other applicable form of Parent.

Section 3.02 Exchange of Company Securities.

(a) Exchange Agent. Parent 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 Parent 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 Effective Time, in either case, for the portion of the Aggregate Merger Consideration issuable in respect of such Capital Stock pursuant to Section 3.01(b) and Section 3.06, in each case on the terms and subject to the other conditions set forth in this Agreement. The Company shall reasonably cooperate with Parent 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 Parent, 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 3.02(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, Parent 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 shares of Parent Common Stock sufficient to deliver the Aggregate Merger Consideration issuable pursuant to this Agreement (such shares of Parent Common Stock being hereinafter referred to as the “Exchange Fund”).

(ii) Parent shall cause the Exchange Agent, pursuant to irrevocable instructions, to issue such Aggregate Merger Consideration out of the Exchange Fund in accordance with the 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 Merger Payment Schedule to the Exchange Agent in accordance with Section 3.02(i), Parent and the Company shall take reasonable steps to cause the applicable Aggregate 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 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 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 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 Merger Consideration issuable upon conversion of the Capital Stock (including Company Common Stock resulting from the Company Preferred Conversion and the Company Convertible Note Conversion and shares of Company Restricted 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 Merger Consideration. The Aggregate 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 Parent Common Stock), reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, combination, merger, sale or exchange of shares or other like change with respect to shares of Parent Common Stock occurring on or after the date hereof and prior to the Effective Time.

(e) Termination of Exchange Fund. Any portion of the Exchange Fund other than the Aggregate Earnout Shares that remains undistributed to the Participating Securityholders for one (1) year after the Effective Time shall be delivered to Parent, upon demand, and any Participating Securityholder who has not theretofore complied with this Section 3.02 shall thereafter look only to Parent for such holder’s Per Share 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 Parent free and clear of any claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto.

(f) No Liability. None of the Exchange Agent, Parent or the Surviving Corporation shall be liable to any Participating Securityholder for any Parent 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 Parent, Merger Sub, the Company, the Surviving Corporation 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 shares of Parent Common Stock 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 Parent or a holder of shares of Parent Common Stock. In lieu of any fractional share of Parent 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 Parent 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) Merger Payment Schedule. At least two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall deliver to Parent and the Exchange Agent a schedule (the “Merger Payment Schedule”) showing (A) the percentage allocation of the aggregate Per Share Merger Consideration to each Participating Securityholder at the Closing (such Participating Securityholder’s “Pro Rata Share”) and the corresponding number of shares of Parent Common Stock to be issued to such Participating Securityholder pursuant to Section 3.01, and (B) the percentage allocation of the Aggregate Earnout Shares to each Participating Securityholder (assuming, for purposes of this clause (B), all Company RSUs and Company Options are fully vested as of immediately prior to the Closing) (such Participating Securityholder’s “Earnout Pro Rata Share”) and the corresponding number of Earnout Shares to be issued to such Participating Securityholder pursuant to Section 3.06.

Section 3.03 Stock Transfer Books. At the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed and there shall be no further registration of transfers of Company Common Stock or Company Preferred Stock thereafter on the records of the Company.

On the Closing Date, Parent shall pay or cause to be paid, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, all Outstanding Transaction Expenses.

(c) Except as set forth in this Section 3.04 or elsewhere in this Agreement, all expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the Transactions shall be paid by the party incurring such expenses, whether or not the Merger or the other Transactions are consummated; provided, however, that the Company and Parent shall each pay one-half (1/2) of each of the following expenses incurred in connection with the Transactions: (A) any ▇▇▇▇▇ agent typesetting fees incurred in connection with the preparation and filing with the SEC of the Proxy Statement and the Registration Statement, (B) any fees relating to SEC or other regulatory filing fees (including those incurred in connection with the Proxy Statement, the Registration Statement and the Notification and Report Forms filed under the HSR Act and any other applicable Antitrust Law, but excluding those incurred in connection with the Extension Proxy Statement, if necessary and applicable) and (C) all transfer taxes associated with the issuance of Parent’s securities at Closing.

Section 3.05 Dissenters’ Rights.

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

(b) Prior to the Closing, the Company shall give Parent (i) prompt notice of any demands for appraisal received by the Company and any withdrawals of such demands, and (ii) the opportunity to participate in all negotiations and proceedings with respect to demands for appraisal under the TBOC. The Company shall not, except with the prior written consent of Parent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), make any payment with respect to any demands for appraisal or offer to settle or settle any such demands.

(ii) upon the occurrence of Milestone Event II, the remaining one-half (1/2) of the Aggregate Earnout Shares shall be fully vested and no longer subject to forfeiture; or

(iii) upon the occurrence of a Subsequent Transaction at any time during the Milestone Event Period, all of the Aggregate Earnout Shares shall be fully vested and no longer subject to forfeiture.

(b) For the avoidance of doubt, (i) the Participating Securityholders shall be entitled to be fully vested in the applicable Earnout Shares upon the occurrence of each Milestone Event or a Subsequent Transaction; provided that each Milestone Event or a Subsequent Transaction shall only occur once, if at all, and in no event shall the Participating Securityholders be entitled to receive more than the Aggregate Earnout Shares; and (ii) to the extent that any Milestone Event or a Subsequent Transaction does not occur in accordance with the terms of this Agreement during the Milestone Event Period, any Earnout Shares that would otherwise be fully vested under this Agreement as a result of the occurrence of such Milestone Event shall instead be forfeited and cancelled without the payment of any consideration in respect thereof.

(c) The Parent Common Stock price targets set forth in the definitions of Milestone Event I, Milestone Event II 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 Parent Common Stock), reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, combination, merger, sale or exchange of shares or other like change with respect to shares of Parent Common Stock occurring after the Closing.

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.

(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.

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 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.

The parties hereto further covenant and agree, with respect to a threatened or pending preliminary or permanent injunction or other order, decree or ruling or statute, rule, regulation or executive order that would adversely affect the ability of the parties to consummate the Transactions, to use reasonable best efforts to prevent or lift the entry, enactment or promulgation thereof, as the case may be.

None of the representations, warranties, covenants, obligations or other agreements in this Agreement or in any certificate, 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 survive the Closing and all such representations, warranties, covenants, obligations or other agreements 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 herein 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 X and any corresponding definitions set forth in Article I.

Section 10.03 Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of law, or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the Transactions is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the Transactions be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

Section 10.04 Entire Agreement; Assignment. This Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements constitute the entire agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements and undertakings, both written and oral, among the parties, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof, except for the Non-Disclosure Agreement or as set forth in Section 7.04(b). This Agreement shall not be assigned (whether pursuant to a merger, by operation of law or otherwise) by any party without the prior express written consent of the other parties hereto.

Section 10.05 Parties in Interest. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of each party hereto, and nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other Person any right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement, other than Section 7.08 (which is intended to be for the benefit of the Persons covered thereby and may be enforced by such Persons).

Section 10.06 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the Laws of the State of Delaware applicable to contracts executed in and to be performed in that State. All legal actions and proceedings arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be heard and determined exclusively in any Delaware Chancery Court; provided that, if jurisdiction is not then available in the Delaware Chancery Court, then any such legal Action may be brought in any federal court located in the State of Delaware or any other Delaware state court. The parties hereto hereby (a) irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts for themselves and with respect to their respective properties for the purpose of any Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement brought by any party hereto, and (b) agree not to commence any Action relating thereto except in the courts described above in Delaware, other than Actions in any court of competent jurisdiction to enforce any judgment, decree or award rendered by any such court in Delaware as described herein. Each of the parties further agrees that notice as provided herein shall constitute sufficient service of process and the parties further waive any argument that such service is insufficient. Each of the parties hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, and agrees not to assert, by way of motion or as a defense, counterclaim or otherwise, in any Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, (a) any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the courts in Delaware as described herein for any reason, (b) that it or its property is exempt or immune from jurisdiction of any such court or from any legal process commenced in such courts (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise) and (c) that (i) the Action in any such court is brought in an inconvenient forum, (ii) the venue of such Action is improper or (iii) this Agreement, or the subject matter hereof, may not be enforced in or by such courts.

Section 10.07 Waiver of Jury Trial.

Each of the parties hereto (a) certifies that no representative, agent or attorney of any other party has represented, expressly or otherwise, that such other party would not, in the event of litigation, seek to enforce that foregoing waiver and (b) acknowledges that it and the other hereto have been induced to enter into this Agreement and the Transactions, as applicable, by, among other things, the mutual waivers and certifications in this Section 10.07.

Section 10.08 Headings. The descriptive headings contained in this Agreement are included for convenience of reference only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

Section 10.09 Counterparts; Electronic Delivery. This Agreement and each other Transaction Document may be executed and delivered (including by facsimile or portable document format (pdf) transmission) in one or more counterparts, and by the different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when executed shall be deemed to be an original but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery by email to counsel for the other parties of a counterpart executed by a party shall be deemed to meet the requirements of the previous sentence.

Section 10.10 Specific Performance. The parties agree that irreparable damage would occur if any provision of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with the terms hereof, and, accordingly, that the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement or to enforce specifically the performance of the terms and provisions hereof (including the parties’ obligation to consummate the Merger) in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or, if that court does not have jurisdiction, any court of the United States located in the State of Delaware without proof of actual damages or otherwise, in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity as expressly permitted in this Agreement. Each of the parties hereby further waives (a) any defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate and (b) any requirement under any Law to post security or a bond as a prerequisite to obtaining equitable relief.

Section 10.11 No Recourse. Except in the case of Fraud, all actions, claims, obligations, liabilities or causes of actions (whether in contract or in tort, in law or in equity, or granted by statute whether by or through attempted piercing of the corporate, limited partnership or limited liability company veil) that may be based upon, in respect of, arise under, out or by reason of, be connected with, or relate in any manner to: (a) this Agreement, (b) the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement (including any representation or warranty made in, in connection with, or as an inducement to, this Agreement), (c) any breach of this Agreement and (d) any failure of the Merger to be consummated, may be made only against (and, without prejudice to the rights of any express third party beneficiary to whom rights under this Agreement inure pursuant to Section 10.11), are those solely of the Persons that are expressly identified as parties to this Agreement and not against any Nonparty Affiliate (as defined below). Except in the case of Fraud, no other Person, including any director, officer, employee, incorporator, member, partner, manager, stockholder, optionholder, Affiliate, agent, attorney or representative of, or any financial advisor or lender to, any party to this Agreement, or any director, officer, employee, incorporator, member, partner, manager, stockholder, Affiliate, agent, attorney or representative of, or any financial advisor or lender to (each of the foregoing, a “Nonparty Affiliate”) any of the foregoing shall have any liabilities (whether in contract or in tort, in law or in equity, or granted by statute whether by or through attempted piercing of the corporate, limited partnership or limited liability company veil) for any claims, causes of action, obligations or liabilities arising under, out of, in connection with or related in any manner to the items in the immediately preceding clauses (a) through (d) and each party, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates, hereby irrevocably releases and forever discharges each of the Nonparty Affiliate from any such liability or obligation.

Section 10.12 Conflicts and Privilege. Each of Parent and the Company hereby agrees on behalf of its directors, members, partners, officers, employees and Affiliates and each of their respective successors and assigns (including, after the Closing, the Surviving Corporation) (all such Parties the “Waiving Parties”), that each of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ GPM LLP (“▇▇▇▇▇▇▇”) and Shearman & Sterling LLP (“Shearman”) may represent 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 Surviving Corporation (collectively, the “TV Ammo Group”)), in each case solely in connection with any Action or obligation arising out of or relating to this Agreement, any other Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, notwithstanding its prior representation of the Company and its Subsidiaries or other Waiving Parties, and each of Parent and the Company, on behalf of itself and the Waiving Parties hereby consents thereto and irrevocably waives (and will not assert) any conflict of interest, breach of duty or any other objection arising from or relating to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’▇ and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’▇ prior representation of the Company, its Subsidiaries or of Waiving Parties. Each of Parent and the Company, for itself and the Waiving Parties, hereby further irrevocably acknowledges and agrees that all privileged communications, written or oral, between the Company and its Subsidiaries or any member of the Waiving Parties and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ or Shearman, 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 other Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, or any matter relating to any of the foregoing, are privileged communications that do not pass to the Surviving Corporation notwithstanding the Merger, and instead survive, remain with and are controlled by the TV Ammo Group (the “Privileged Communications”), without any waiver thereof. Parent and the Company, together with any of their respective Affiliates, Subsidiaries, successors or assigns, agree that no Person may use or rely on any of the Privileged Communications, whether located in the records or email server of the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries, in any Action against or involving any of the Parties after the Closing, and Parent and the Company agree not to assert that any privilege has been waived as to the Privileged Communications, by virtue of the Merger.

Section 4.1 Capitalization. The total number of shares of all classes of stock that the Corporation is authorized to issue is [_____] shares, consisting of (a) [_____] shares of Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Common Stock”), and (b) [_____] shares of Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Preferred Stock”).

Section 4.2 Preferred Stock.

(a) The Board of Directors of the Corporation (the “Board”) is hereby expressly authorized, by resolution or resolutions thereof, at any time and from time to time, to provide, out of the unissued shares of Preferred Stock, for one or more series of Preferred Stock and, with respect to each such series, to fix the number of shares constituting such series and the designation of such series, the powers (including voting powers), if any, of the shares of such series, and the preferences and relative, participating, optional, special or other rights, if any, and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions if any, of the shares of such series.

In furtherance and not in limitation of the powers conferred by the DGCL, the Board is expressly authorized to make, amend, alter, change, add to or repeal the bylaws of the Corporation. In addition to any affirmative vote required by this Certificate of Incorporation or by applicable law, the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the total voting power of all the then outstanding shares of stock of the Corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class, shall be required in order for the stockholders of the Corporation to alter, amend, repeal or rescind, in whole or in part, any provision of the bylaws of the Corporation or to adopt any provision inconsistent therewith.

Except as may otherwise be provided in this Certificate of Incorporation or by the DGCL, the business and affairs of the Corporation shall be managed by or under the direction of the Board.

Section 6.2 Newly Created Directorships and Vacancies. Subject to the rights, if any, of the holders of any outstanding series of Preferred Stock to elect Preferred Directors, any newly-created directorship on the Board that results from an increase in the total number of directors and any vacancy occurring in the Board (whether by death, resignation, disqualification or removal) shall be filled solely and exclusively by the affirmative vote of a majority of the directors then in office (other than any Preferred Director), although less than a quorum, or by a sole remaining director (other than any Preferred Director), and not by stockholders of the Corporation. Any director (other than a Preferred Director) elected to fill a vacancy or newly created directorship shall hold office until the next election of the class for which such director shall have been chosen and until his or her successor shall be elected and qualified, subject to his or her earlier death, resignation, disqualification or removal.

Section 6.3 Removal. Except for any Preferred Directors, any or all of the directors may be removed only for cause and only upon the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the total voting power of all the then outstanding shares of stock of the Corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class.

Article VII

(b) Special Meetings. Except as may be otherwise provided in this Certificate of Incorporation, special meetings of stockholders of the Corporation for any purpose or purposes may be called at any time, but only by (i) the Board or (ii) the Chairman of the Board, and special meetings of stockholders of the Corporation may not be called by any other person or persons.

Article VIII
LIMITED LIABILITY AND INDEMNIFICATION

Section 8.1 Limited Liability of Directors. No director of the Corporation shall have any personal liability to the Corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for any breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except to the extent such exemption from liability or limitation thereof is not permitted under the DGCL as the same exists or hereafter may be amended. If the DGCL is amended to authorize corporate action further eliminating or limiting the personal liability of directors, then the liability of a director of the Corporation shall be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, as so amended. Any amendment, modification, repeal or elimination of the provisions of this Section 8.1 shall not adversely affect any right or protection of a director of the Corporation hereunder in respect of any act or omission occurring prior to the time of such amendment, modification, repeal or elimination.

Section 8.2 Indemnification. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Corporation shall indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the Corporation) by reason of the fact that the person is or was a director or officer of the Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director or officer of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if the person acted in good faith and in a manner the person reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe the person’s conduct was unlawful; provided, however, that, except for proceedings to enforce rights to indemnification or advancement of expenses, the Corporation shall not be obligated to indemnify any such director or officer (or his or her heirs, executors or personal or legal representatives) in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such person unless such proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized or consented to by the Board. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendre or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which the person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, has reasonable cause to believe that the person’s conduct was unlawful. Any amendment, repeal, modification or elimination of the foregoing provisions of this Section 8.2 shall not adversely affect any right or protection hereunder of any person in respect of any act or omission occurring prior to the time of such amendment, repeal, modification or elimination.

DATED AS OF [●], 2023

Article I

STOCKHOLDERS

Section 1. Annual Meetings. The annual meeting of the stockholders of True Velocity, Inc. (the “Corporation”) for the purpose of electing directors and for the transaction of such other business as may properly be brought before the meeting shall be held on such date, and at such time and place, if any, within or without the State of Delaware as shall be fixed exclusively by resolution of the Board of Directors of the Corporation (the “Board”) or a duly authorized committee thereof. The Board may postpone, reschedule or cancel any annual meeting of stockholders previously scheduled.

Section 2. Special Meetings. Except as otherwise required by the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”), the certificate of incorporation of the Corporation (including any certificate of designation relating to any series of preferred stock of the Corporation) (as the same may be amended, restated or amended and restated from time to time, the “Certificate”), special meetings of the stockholders of the Corporation may be called at any time, but only by (a) the Board or (b) the Chairman of the Board, and special meetings of stockholders of the Corporation may not be called by any other person or persons. Any special meeting of stockholders of the Corporation may be postponed by action of the person calling such meeting at any time in advance of such special meeting.

Section 3. Notice. Whenever stockholders are required or permitted to take action at a meeting, a notice of meeting shall be given which shall state the place, if any, date and hour of the meeting, the means of remote communications, if any, by which stockholders and proxy holders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at such meeting, the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting (if such date is different from the record date for stockholders entitled to notice of the meeting) and, in the case of a special meeting, the purpose or purposes for which such meeting is called. Unless otherwise provided in the DGCL, the notice shall be given not less than ten nor more than 60 days before the date of the meeting to each stockholder entitled to vote at the meeting as of the record date for determining stockholders entitled to notice of the meeting. If mailed, such notice shall be deemed to be given when deposited in the United States mail, postage prepaid, directed to the stockholder at such stockholder’s mailing address as it appears on the records of the Corporation.

Section 4. Quorum. The holders of a majority in voting power of the shares of capital stock outstanding and entitled to vote thereat, present in person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum at all meetings of the stockholders for the transaction of business, except as otherwise provided herein, by the DGCL, by the Certificate or by these Bylaws; but if at any meeting of stockholders there shall be less than a quorum present, the chairman of the meeting or, by a majority in voting power thereof, the stockholders present may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, adjourn the meeting from time to time without further notice other than announcement at the meeting of the time and place, if any, and the means of remote communication, if any, by which stockholders may be deemed present in person and vote at such adjourned meeting, until a quorum shall be present or represented. Notwithstanding the foregoing, where a separate vote of the holders of shares of a class or series or classes or series of capital stock is required, the holders of a majority in voting power of the outstanding shares of such class or series or classes or series of capital stock, present in person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum entitled to take action with respect to that vote on that matter, except as otherwise provided herein, by the DGCL, by the Certificate or by the Bylaws. At any adjourned meeting at which a quorum shall be present or represented, any business may be transacted which might have been transacted at the original meeting. Notice need not be given of any adjourned meeting if the time and place, if any, and the means of remote communication, if any, by which stockholders may be deemed present in person and vote at such adjourned meeting are announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken; provided, however, that if the adjournment is for more than 30 days, a notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at the meeting. If after the adjournment a new record date for stockholders entitled to vote is fixed for the adjourned meeting, the Board shall fix a new record date for notice of such adjourned meeting, and shall give notice of the adjourned meeting to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at such adjourned meeting as of the record date fixed for notice of such adjourned meeting.

Section 5. Conduct of the Meeting. The Chairman of the Board, or in the absence of the Chairman of the Board or at the Chairman of the Board’s direction, the Chief Executive Officer, or in the Chief Executive Officer’s absence or at the Board’s or the Chief Executive Officer’s direction, any officer of the Corporation, shall call all meetings of the stockholders to order and shall act as chairman of any such meetings. The Secretary of the Corporation or, in such officer’s absence, an Assistant Secretary, shall act as secretary of all meetings of stockholders. If neither the Secretary nor an Assistant Secretary is present at a meeting of stockholders, the chairman of the meeting shall appoint a secretary of such meeting. The Board may adopt such rules and regulations for the conduct of the meeting of stockholders as it shall deem appropriate. Unless otherwise determined by the Board prior to the meeting, the chairman of the meeting shall determine the order of business and shall have the authority in his or her discretion to regulate the conduct of any such meeting, including, without limitation, convening the meeting and adjourning the meeting (whether or not a quorum is present), announcing the date and time of the opening and the closing of the polls for each matter upon which the stockholders will vote, imposing restrictions on the persons (other than stockholders of record of the Corporation or their duly appointed proxies) who may attend any such meeting, establishing procedures for the transaction of business at the meeting (including the dismissal of business not properly presented), maintaining order at the meeting and safety of those present, restricting entry to the meeting after the time fixed for commencement thereof and limiting the circumstances in which any person may make a statement or ask questions at any meeting of stockholders. Unless and to the extent determined by the Board or the chairman of the meeting, meetings of stockholders shall not be required to be held in accordance with the rules of parliamentary procedure.

Section 6. Voting by Proxy. At all meetings of stockholders, any stockholder entitled to vote thereat shall be entitled to vote in person or by proxy, but no proxy shall be voted after three years from its date, unless such proxy provides for a longer period. Without limiting the manner in which a stockholder may authorize another person or persons to act for the stockholder as proxy pursuant to the DGCL, the following shall constitute a valid means by which a stockholder may grant such authority: (a) a stockholder, or such stockholder’s authorized officer, director, employee or agent may execute a document authorizing another person or persons to act for the stockholder as proxy; or (b) a stockholder may authorize another person or persons to act for the stockholder as proxy by transmitting or authorizing by means of electronic transmission to the person who will be the holder of the proxy or to a proxy solicitation firm, proxy support service organization or like agent duly authorized by the person who will be the holder of the proxy to receive such transmission; provided that any such means of electronic transmission must either set forth or be submitted with information from which it can be determined that the electronic transmission was authorized by the stockholder. If it is determined that such electronic transmissions are valid, the inspector or inspectors of election or, if there are no such inspectors, such other persons making that determination shall specify the information upon which they relied. The authorization of a person to act as a proxy may be documented, signed and delivered in accordance with the DGCL; provided that such authorization shall set forth, or be delivered with information enabling the Corporation to determine, the identity of the stockholder granting such authorization.

A proxy shall be irrevocable if it states that it is irrevocable and if, and only as long as, it is coupled with an interest sufficient in law to support an irrevocable power. A stockholder may revoke any proxy which is not irrevocable by attending the meeting and voting in person or by delivering to the Secretary of the Corporation a revocation of the proxy or a new proxy bearing a later date.

Any copy, electronic transmission or other reliable reproduction of the document created pursuant to the preceding paragraphs of this Section 6 may be substituted or used in lieu of the original document for any and all purposes for which the original document could be used, provided that such copy, electronic transmission or other reproduction shall be a complete reproduction of the entire original document.

Proxies shall be filed with the secretary of the meeting prior to or at the commencement of the meeting to which they relate.

Section 7. Voting. When a quorum is present at any meeting, the vote of the holders of a majority of the votes cast shall decide any question brought before such meeting, unless the question is one upon which by express provision of the Certificate, these Bylaws, the DGCL or the rules and regulations of any stock exchange applicable to the Corporation, a different vote is required, in which case such express provision shall govern and control the decision of such question. Notwithstanding the foregoing, where a separate vote of the holders of shares a class or series or classes or series of capital stock is required and a quorum is present, the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the votes cast by shares of such class or series or classes or series of capital stock shall be the act of such class or series or classes or series of capital stock, unless the question is one upon which by express provision of the Certificate, these Bylaws or the DGCL a different vote is required, in which case such express provision shall govern and control the decision of such question.

Section 8. Record Date.

(a) In order that the Corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to notice of any meeting of stockholders or any adjournment thereof, the Board may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the Board, and which record date shall, unless otherwise required by the DGCL, not be more than 60 nor less than ten days before the date of such meeting. If the Board so fixes a date, such date shall also be the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote at such meeting unless the Board determines, at the time it fixes such record date, that a later date on or before the date of the meeting shall be the date for making such determination. If no record date is fixed by the Board, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to notice of and to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall be at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which notice is given, or, if notice is waived, at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which the meeting is held. A determination of stockholders of record entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall apply to any adjournment of the meeting; provided, however, that the Board may fix a new record date for determination of stockholders entitled to vote at the adjourned meeting, and in such case shall also fix as the record date for stockholders entitled to notice of such adjourned meeting the same or an earlier date as that fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to vote in accordance herewith at the adjourned meeting.

(b) In order that the Corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution or allotment of any rights, or entitled to exercise any rights in respect of any change, conversion or exchange of stock or for the purpose of any other lawful action, the Board may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted, and which record date shall not be more than 60 days prior to such action. If no such record date is fixed, the record date for determining stockholders for any such purpose shall be at the close of business on the day on which the Board adopts the resolution relating thereto.

Section 9. Action by Written Consent. At any time when the Certificate permits action by one or more classes or series of stockholders of the Corporation to be taken by written consent, the provisions of this section shall apply. All consents properly delivered in accordance with the Certificate and the DGCL shall be deemed to be recorded when so delivered. No consent shall be effective to take the corporate action referred to therein unless, within 60 days of the first date on which a consent is delivered to the Corporation as required by the DGCL, consents signed by a sufficient number of holders to take such action are delivered to the Corporation in accordance with the applicable provisions of the DGCL. Prompt notice of the taking of the corporate action without a meeting by less than unanimous consent shall be given to those stockholders who have not consented and who, if the action had been taken at a meeting, would have been entitled to notice of the meeting if the record date for notice of such meeting had been the date that consents signed by a sufficient number of holders to take the action were delivered to the Corporation in accordance with the applicable provisions of the DGCL. Any action taken pursuant to such consent or consents of the stockholders shall have the same force and effect as if taken by the stockholders at a meeting thereof. In order that the Corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to consent to corporate action without a meeting, the Board may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the Board, and which date shall not be more than ten days after the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the Board. If no record date has been fixed by the Board, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to consent to corporate action without a meeting, when no prior action by the Board is required by the DGCL, shall be the first date on which a signed consent setting forth the action taken or proposed to be taken is delivered to the Corporation in accordance with the applicable provisions of the DGCL. If no record date has been fixed by the Board and prior action by the Board is required by the DGCL, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to consent to corporate action without a meeting shall be at the close of business on the day on which the Board adopts the resolution taking such prior action.

Section 10. List of Stockholders. The Corporation shall prepare, at least ten days before every meeting of stockholders, a complete list of the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting; provided, however, if the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote is less than ten days before the date of the meeting, the list shall reflect the stockholders entitled to vote as of the tenth day before the meeting date, arranged in alphabetical order, and showing the address of each stockholder and the number of shares registered in the name of each stockholder. Such list shall be open to the examination of any stockholder for any purpose germane to the meeting for a period of at least ten days prior to the meeting (a) on a reasonably accessible electronic network; provided that the information required to gain access to such list is provided with the notice of the meeting, or (b) during ordinary business hours, at the principal place of business of the Corporation. In the event that the Corporation determines to make the list available on an electronic network, the Corporation may take reasonable steps to ensure that such information is available only to stockholders of the Corporation. If the meeting is to be held at a place, then a list of stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting shall be produced and kept at the time and place of the meeting during the whole time thereof, and may be examined by any stockholder who is present. If the meeting is to be held solely by means of remote communication, then the list shall also be open to the examination of any stockholder during the whole time of the meeting on a reasonably accessible electronic network, and the information required to access such list shall be provided with the notice of the meeting.

Section 11. Inspectors of Election. The Board, in advance of all meetings of the stockholders, may appoint one or more inspectors of election, who may be employees or agents of the Corporation or stockholders or their proxies, but who shall not be directors of the Corporation or candidates for election as directors. In the event that the Board fails to so appoint one or more inspectors of election or, in the event that one or more inspectors of election previously designated by the Board fails to appear or act at the meeting of stockholders, the chairman of the meeting may appoint one or more inspectors of election to fill such vacancy or vacancies. Inspectors of election appointed to act at any meeting of the stockholders, before entering upon the discharge of their duties, shall take and sign an oath to faithfully execute the duties of inspector of election with strict impartiality and according to the best of their ability. The inspector or inspectors so appointed or designated shall (a) ascertain the number of shares of capital stock of the Corporation outstanding and the voting power of each such share, (b) determine the shares of capital stock of the Corporation represented at the meeting and the validity of proxies and ballots, (c) count all votes and ballots, (d) determine and retain for a reasonable period a record of the disposition of any challenges made to any determination by the inspectors, and (e) certify their determination of the number of shares of capital stock of the Corporation represented at the meeting and such inspectors’ count of all votes and ballots. Such certification and report shall specify such other information as may be required by applicable law. In determining the validity and counting of proxies and ballots cast at any meeting of stockholders of the Corporation, the inspectors may consider such information as is permitted by applicable law.

Section 12. Meetings of Stockholders.

(a) Annual Meetings of Stockholders.

(i) Nominations of persons for election to the Board (other than nominations of persons for election as Preferred Directors (if any and as defined below) and the proposal of other business (other than other business for which a separate vote of the holders of shares of a class or series or classes or series of capital stock is required by the Certificate) to be considered by the stockholders may be made at an annual meeting of stockholders only (A) pursuant to the Corporation’s notice of meeting (or any supplement thereto) delivered pursuant to Section 3 of this Article I, (B) by or at the direction of the Board or any authorized committee thereof, or (C) by any stockholder of the Corporation who is entitled to vote on such election or such other business at the meeting, who has complied with the notice procedures set forth in Section 12(a)(ii) and Section 12(a)(iii) of this Article I and who was a stockholder of record at the time such notice was delivered to the Secretary of the Corporation in accordance with Section 12(a)(ii) of this Article I.

(ii) For nominations or other business to be properly brought before an annual meeting by a stockholder pursuant to Section 12(a)(i) of this Article I, the stockholder must have given timely notice thereof in writing to the Secretary of the Corporation, and, in the case of business other than nominations of persons for election to the Board, such other business must be a proper matter for stockholder action. To be timely, a stockholder’s notice shall be delivered to the Secretary at the principal executive offices of the Corporation not less than ninety days nor more than one hundred twenty days prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting; provided, however, that in the event that the date of the annual meeting is advanced by more than thirty days, or delayed by more than seventy days, from such anniversary date, notice by the stockholder to be timely must be so delivered not earlier than the close of business on the 120th day prior to such annual meeting and not later than the close of business on the later of the 90th day prior to such annual meeting or the tenth day following the day on which public announcement of the date of such meeting is first made by the Corporation. For purposes of the application of Rule 14a-4(c) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) (or any successor provision), the date for notice specified in this Section 12(a)(ii) of this Article I shall be the earlier of the date calculated as hereinbefore provided or the date specified in paragraph (c)(1) of Rule 14a-4. For purposes of the first annual meeting of stockholders following the adoption of these Bylaws, the date of the preceding year’s annual meeting shall be deemed to be [_____].

Such stockholder’s notice shall set forth (A) as to each person whom the stockholder proposes to nominate for election or re-election as a director all information relating to such person that is required to be disclosed in solicitations of proxies for election of directors, or is otherwise required, in each case pursuant to Section 14(a) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, including such person’s written consent to being named in the proxy statement as a nominee and to serving as a director if elected; (B) as to any other business that the stockholder proposes to bring before the meeting, a brief description of the business desired to be brought before the meeting, the text of the proposal or business (including the text of any resolutions proposed for consideration and, in the event that such business includes a proposal to amend these Bylaws, the language of the proposed amendment), the reasons for conducting such business at the meeting and any material interest in such business of such stockholder and the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the proposal is made; (C) as to the stockholder giving the notice and the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the nomination or proposal is made (1) the name and address of such stockholder, as they appear on the Corporation’s books and records, and of such beneficial owner, (2) the class or series and number of shares of capital stock of the Corporation which are owned directly or indirectly, beneficially and of record by such stockholder and such beneficial owner, (3) a representation that the stockholder is a holder of record of capital stock of the Corporation at the time of the giving of the notice, the stockholder will be entitled to vote at such meeting and the stockholder (or a qualified representative of the stockholder) will appear in person or by proxy at the meeting to propose such business or nomination, (4) a representation whether the stockholder or the beneficial owner, if any, will be or is part of a group which will (y) deliver a proxy statement and/or form of proxy to holders of at least the percentage of the voting power of the Corporation’s outstanding capital stock required to approve or adopt the business or elect the nominee and/or (z) otherwise solicit proxies or votes from stockholders in support of such business or nomination, (5) a certification regarding whether such stockholder and beneficial owner, if any, have complied with all applicable federal, state and other legal requirements in connection with the stockholder’s and/or beneficial owner’s acquisition of shares of capital stock or other securities of the Corporation and/or the stockholder’s and/or beneficial owner’s acts or omissions as a stockholder of the Corporation and (6) any other information relating to such stockholder and beneficial owner, if any, required to be disclosed in a proxy statement or other filings required to be made in connection with solicitations of proxies for, as applicable, the business and/or for the election of directors in an election contest pursuant to and in accordance with Section 14(a) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder; (D) a description of any agreement, arrangement or understanding with respect to the nomination or business and/or the voting of shares of any class or series of capital stock of the Corporation between or among the stockholder giving the notice, the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the nomination or proposal is made, any of their respective affiliates or associates and/or any others acting in concert with any of the foregoing (collectively, “proponent persons”); and (E) a description of any agreement, arrangement or understanding (including without limitation any contract to purchase or sell, acquisition or grant of any option, right or warrant to purchase or sell, swap or other instrument) the intent or effect of which may be (1) to transfer to or from any proponent person, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of any security of the Corporation, (2) to increase or decrease the voting power of any proponent person with respect to shares of any class or series of capital stock of the Corporation and/or (3) to provide any proponent person, directly or indirectly, with the opportunity to profit or share in any profit derived from, or to otherwise benefit economically from, any increase or decrease in the value of any security of the Corporation. A stockholder providing notice of a proposed nomination for election to the Board or other business proposed to be brought before a meeting (whether given pursuant to this Section 12(a)(ii) or Section 12(b) of this Article I) shall update and supplement such notice from time to time to the extent necessary so that the information provided or required to be provided in such notice shall be true and correct as of the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to notice of the meeting and as of the date that is fifteen days prior to the meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof; provided that if the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting is less than fifteen days prior to the meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof, the information shall be supplemented and updated as of such later date. Any such update and supplement shall be delivered in writing to the Secretary at the principal executive offices of the Corporation not later than five days after the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to notice of the meeting (in the case of any update or supplement required to be made as of the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to notice of the meeting), not later than ten days prior to the date for the meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof (in the case of any update or supplement required to be made as of fifteen days prior to the meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof) and not later than five days after the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting, but no later than the date prior to the meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof (in the case of any update and supplement required to be made as of a date less than fifteen days prior the date of the meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof). The Corporation may require any proposed nominee to furnish such other information as it may reasonably require to determine the eligibility of such proposed nominee to serve as a director of the Corporation and to determine the independence of such director under the Exchange Act and rules and regulations thereunder and applicable stock exchange rules.

(iii) Notwithstanding anything in the second sentence of Section 12(a)(ii) of this Article I to the contrary, in the event that the number of directors to be elected to the Board is increased, effective after the time period for which nominations would otherwise be due under Section 12(a)(ii) of this Article I, and there is no public announcement naming all of the nominees for director or specifying the size of the increased Board made by the Corporation at least one hundred days prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting, a stockholder’s notice required by this Section 12(a) shall also be considered timely, but only with respect to nominees for any new positions created by such increase, if it shall be delivered to the Secretary at the principal executive offices of the Corporation not later than the close of business on the tenth day following the day on which a public announcement of such increase is first made by the Corporation; provided that, if no such announcement is made at least ten days before the meeting, then no such notice shall be required.

(b) Special Meetings of Stockholders. Only such business shall be conducted at a special meeting of stockholders as shall have been brought before the meeting pursuant to the Corporation’s notice of meeting pursuant to Section 3 of this Article I. Nominations of persons for election to the Board (other than nominations of persons for election as Preferred Directors, if any) may be made at a special meeting of stockholders at which directors are to be elected pursuant to the Corporation’s notice of meeting (i) by or at the direction of the Board or any authorized committee thereof, or (ii) provided that the Board has determined that directors shall be elected at such meeting, by any stockholder of the Corporation who is entitled to vote on such election at the meeting, who has complied with the notice procedures set forth in Section 12(a)(ii) and Section 12(a)(iii) of this Article I and who is a stockholder of record at the time such notice is delivered to the Secretary of the Corporation in accordance with Section 12(a)(ii) of this Article I. In the event the Corporation calls a special meeting of stockholders for the purpose of electing one or more directors to the Board (other than Preferred Directors, if any), any such stockholder entitled to vote in such election of directors may nominate a person or persons (as the case may be) for election to such position(s) as specified in the Corporation’s notice of meeting pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 12(b) if the stockholder’s notice as required by Section 12(a)(ii) of this Article I shall be delivered to the Secretary at the principal executive offices of the Corporation not earlier than the 120th day prior to such special meeting and not later than the close of business on the later of the 90th day prior to such special meeting or the tenth day following the day on which public announcement is first made of the date of the special meeting and of the nominees proposed by the Board to be elected at such meeting.

(i) Other than persons nominated for election as Preferred Directors (if any), only persons who are nominated in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 12 shall be eligible to serve as directors and other than business for which a separate vote of the holders of shares of a class or series or classes or series of capital stock is required by the Certificate, only such business shall be conducted at a meeting of stockholders as shall have been brought before the meeting in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 12. Except as otherwise provided by applicable law, the Certificate or these Bylaws, the chairman of the meeting shall have the power and duty to determine whether a nomination or any business proposed to be brought before the meeting was made in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 12 and, if any proposed nomination or business is not in compliance with this Section 12, to declare that such defective nomination shall be disregarded or that such proposed business shall not be transacted.

BOARD OF DIRECTORS

Section 1. General; Number of Directors. Subject to the rights, if any, of the holders of any outstanding series of preferred stock of the Corporation to elect one or more directors (collectively, the “Preferred Directors” and each, a “Preferred Director”) and the terms of the Certificate, the Board shall consist of such number of directors as shall from time to time be fixed exclusively by resolution adopted by the Board. Directors shall (except as hereinafter provided for the filling of vacancies and newly created directorships and except as otherwise expressly provided in the Certificate) be elected by the holders of a plurality of the votes cast by the holders of shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the election of such directors. Subject to the terms of the Certificate, the presence of directors entitled to cast a majority of the votes of the total number of authorized directors of the Board (assuming no vacancies or unfilled newly created directorships) shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business. Except as otherwise provided by applicable law, these Bylaws or by the Certificate, the act of a majority of the votes entitled to be cast by the directors present at any meeting at which there is a quorum shall be the act of the Board. Directors need not be stockholders.

Section 2. Vacancies. Subject to the rights, if any, of the holders of any outstanding series of preferred stock of the Corporation to elect Preferred Directors, any newly created directorship on the Board that results from an increase in the total number of directors and any vacancy occurring in the Board (whether by death, disqualification or removal) shall be filled solely and exclusively by the affirmative vote of a majority of the directors then in office (other than any Preferred Directors), although less than a quorum, or by a sole remaining director (other than any Preferred Director), and not by the stockholders of the Corporation.

Section 3. Meetings. Meetings of the Board shall be held at such place, if any, within or without the State of Delaware as may from time to time be fixed by resolution of the Board or as may be specified in the notice of any meeting. Regular meetings of the Board shall be held at such times as may from time to time be fixed by resolution of the Board and special meetings may be held at any time upon the call of the Chairman of the Board, the Chief Executive Officer or by a majority of the directors then in office, by written notice, including e-mail or other means of electronic transmission, duly delivered to each director to such director’s address, e-mail address or telephone or telecopy number as shown on the books of the Corporation not less than 48 hours before the meeting. The notice of any meeting need not specify the purposes thereof. A meeting of the Board may be held without notice immediately after the annual meeting of stockholders at the same place, if any, at which such meeting is held. Notice need not be given of regular meetings of the Board held at times fixed by resolution of the Board. Notice of any meeting need not be given to any director who shall attend such meeting (except when the director attends a meeting for the express purpose of objecting at the beginning of the meeting, to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened), or who shall waive notice thereof, before or after such meeting, in accordance with the applicable provisions of the DGCL.

Section 4. Preferred Stock. Notwithstanding the foregoing, whenever the holders of any outstanding series of preferred stock of the Corporation shall have the right to elect one or more Preferred Directors, the election, term of office, removal, and other features of such directorships shall be governed by the terms of the Certificate applicable thereto. The number of Preferred Directors that may be elected by the holders of any such series of preferred stock of the Corporation pursuant to the Certificate (if any) shall be in addition to the total number of directors fixed by the Board pursuant to the Certificate and these Bylaws. Except as otherwise expressly provided in the Certificate, (a) each Preferred Director shall be elected for a term expiring at the next annual meeting of stockholders and (b) any vacancy occurring by the death, resignation, disqualification or removal of a Preferred Director shall be filled by the affirmative vote of a majority of the remaining Preferred Directors elected by the holders of such series, or, if there are no such remaining directors, by the holders of such series in the same manner in which such series initially elected such Preferred Director.

Section 5. Committees. The Board may from time to time establish one or more committees of the Board to serve at the pleasure of the Board, which shall have such duties as the Board shall from time to time determine. Subject to the Certificate and the applicable corporate governance rules of any national securities exchange or other market on which the capital stock of the Company is then listed and the applicable corporate governance guidelines of the Securities and Exchange, the Board may from time to time establish the number of members of the Board comprising any committee of the Board. Any director may belong to any number of committees of the Board. The Board may designate one or more directors as alternate members of any committee, who may replace any absent or disqualified member at any meeting of the committee. In the absence or disqualification of a member of a committee, the member or members present at any meeting and not disqualified from voting, whether or not such member or members constitute a quorum, may unanimously appoint another member of the Board to act at the meeting in the place of any such absent or disqualified member. Unless otherwise provided in the Certificate, these Bylaws or the resolution of the Board designating the committee, a committee may create one or more subcommittees, each subcommittee to consist of one or more members of the committee, and may delegate to a subcommittee any or all of the powers and authority of the committee.

Section 6. Action by Written Consent. Unless otherwise restricted by the Certificate or these Bylaws, any action required or permitted to be taken at any meeting of the Board or of any committee thereof may be taken without a meeting if all members of the Board or of such committee, as the case may be, consent thereto in writing or by electronic transmission, and the consent or consents relating thereto are filed with the minutes of proceedings of the Board.

Section 7. Telephonic Meetings. The members of the Board or any committee thereof may participate in a meeting of such Board or committee, as the case may be, by means of conference telephone or other communications equipment by means of which all persons participating in the meeting can hear each other, and participation in a meeting pursuant to this subsection shall constitute presence in person at such a meeting.

Article III

Article IV

INDEMNIFICATION and advancement of expenses

Section 1. General. The Corporation shall indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the Corporation) by reason of the fact that the person is or was a director or officer of the Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director or officer of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if the person acted in good faith and in a manner the person reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe the person’s conduct was unlawful; provided, however, that, except for actions, suits or proceedings to enforce rights to indemnification or advancement of expenses, the Corporation shall not be obligated to indemnify any such director or officer (or his or her heirs, executors or personal or legal representatives) in connection with an action, suit or proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such person unless such action, suit or proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized or consented to by the Board. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which the person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, has reasonable cause to believe that the person’s conduct was unlawful.

Section 2. Actions by or in the Right of the Corporation. The Corporation shall indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding by or in the right of the Corporation by reason of the fact that the person is or was a director or officer of the Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director or officer of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if the person acted in good faith and in a manner the person reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Corporation; provided, however, that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the Corporation unless and only to the extent permitted by the DGCL; provided, further, that, except for actions, suits or proceedings to enforce rights to indemnification or advancement of expenses, the Corporation shall not be obligated to indemnify any such person (or his or her heirs, executors or personal or legal representatives) in connection with an action, suit or proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such person unless such action, suit or proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized or consented to by the Board.

Section 3. Expenses. To the extent that a present or former director or officer of the Corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in Section 1 of this Article IV, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, such person shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection therewith.

Section 4. Standard of Conduct. Any indemnification under Section 1 or Section 2 of this Article IV (unless ordered by a court) shall be made by the Corporation only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the present or former director or officer is proper in the circumstances because the person has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in such Section 1 or Section 2. Such determination shall be made, with respect to a person who is a director or officer of the Corporation at the time of such determination, (a) by a majority vote of the directors who are not parties to such action, suit or proceeding, even though less than a quorum, or (b) by a committee of such directors designated by majority vote of such directors, even though less than a quorum, or (c) if there are no such directors, or if such directors so direct, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion, or (d) by the stockholders of the Corporation.

Section 5. Advancement of Expenses. Expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by a current officer or director of the Corporation in defending any civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit or proceeding shall be paid by the Corporation in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such director or officer to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that such person is not entitled to be indemnified by the Corporation as authorized in this Article IV. Expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by former directors and officers of the Corporation, or by persons serving at the request of the Corporation as directors or officers of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, in defending any civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit or proceeding shall be paid by the Corporation in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding.

Section 6. Exclusivity. The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, the other Sections of this Article IV shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under any applicable law, bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in such person’s official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office.

Section 7. Insurance. The Corporation may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director or officer of the Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director or officer of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any liability asserted against such person and incurred by such person in any such capacity, or arising out of such person’s status as such, whether or not the Corporation would have the power to indemnify him against such liability under Section 145 of the DGCL.

Section 8. Certain Defined Terms. For purposes of this Article IV, references to “the Corporation” shall include, in addition to the resulting corporation, any constituent corporation (including any constituent of a constituent) absorbed in a consolidation or merger which, if its separate existence had continued, would have had power and authority to indemnify its directors and officers so that any person who is or was a director or officer of such constituent corporation, or is or was serving at the request of such constituent corporation as a director or officer of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, shall stand in the same position under this Article IV with respect to the resulting or surviving corporation as such person would have with respect to such constituent corporation if its separate existence had continued. For purposes of this Article IV, references to “other enterprises” shall include employee benefit plans; references to “fines” shall include any excise taxes assessed on a person with respect to an employee benefit plan; and references to “serving at the request of the Corporation” shall include any service as a director or officer of the Corporation which imposes duties on, or involves services by, such director or officer with respect to any employee benefit plan, its participants or beneficiaries; and a person who acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in the interest of the participants and beneficiaries of an employee benefit plan shall be deemed to have acted in a manner “not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation” as referred to in this Article IV.

Section 9. Survival. The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, this Article IV shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director or officer and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such a person.

Section 10. Limited Liability. Any repeal or modification of this Article IV shall only be prospective and shall not affect the rights or protections or increase the liability of any director or officer under this Article IV in effect at the time of the alleged occurrence of any act or omission to act giving rise to liability or indemnification.

Section 11. Employees and Agents of the Corporation.
