 be the sole and exclusive forum for any stockholder to bring (i) any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of New ONE Nuclear; (ii) any action or proceeding asserting a claim of, or a claim based on, a breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any current or former director, officer, or other employee of New ONE Nuclear to New ONE Nuclear or New ONE Nuclear’s stockholders; (iii) any action or proceeding asserting a claim arising pursuant to any provision of the DGCL, the New ONE Nuclear Charter, or the New ONE Nuclear Bylaws (including, without limitation, with respect to the interpretation, validity, or enforceability of any provision hereof or thereof); or (iv) any action asserting a claim governed by the internal affairs doctrine. These provisions would not apply to suits brought to enforce a duty or liability created by the Exchange Act. Furthermore, Section 22 of the Securities Act creates concurrent jurisdiction for federal and state courts over all such Securities Act actions. Accordingly, both state and federal courts have jurisdiction to entertain such claims. To prevent having to litigate claims in multiple jurisdictions and the threat of inconsistent or contrary rulings by different courts, among other considerations, the New ONE Nuclear Charter and New ONE Nuclear Bylaws further provide that the United States District Court for the District of Delaware shall be the sole and exclusive forum for resolving any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act. For the avoidance of doubt, this provision is intended to benefit, and may be enforced by, New ONE Nuclear, its officers and directors, the underwriters to any offering giving rise to such complaint, and any other professional entity whose profession gives authority to a statement made by that person or entity and who has prepared or certified any part of the documents underlying the offering.

These exclusive forum provisions may limit a stockholder’s ability to bring a claim in a judicial forum that it finds favorable for disputes with New ONE Nuclear or its directors, officers, or other employees and may discourage these types of lawsuits. Furthermore, the enforceability of similar choice of forum provisions in other companies’ certificates of incorporation or bylaws has been challenged in legal proceedings, and it is possible that a court could find these types of provisions to be inapplicable or unenforceable. New ONE Nuclear notes that investors cannot waive compliance with the federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder.
