or any other Transaction Document, or any allegation by a third party that, if true, would constitute such a breach or (ii) any Proceeding brought by or against any Person other than the Company, directly or indirectly, in connection with or as
a result of any of the Transactions. The indemnification and expense reimbursement obligations of the Company under this paragraph shall be in addition to any liability that the Company may otherwise have and shall be binding upon and inure to the

 4.11 Trust Fund Waiver. The Purchaser acknowledges that, except for a portion of the interest earned on the amounts held in the
Trust Account to which the Company is entitled to, held in trust by the Trustee pursuant to the Trust Agreement, the Company or the Subsidiaries may disburse monies from the Trust Account only: (a) to the Company’s public stockholders in


  

 22

any kind against, monies held in the Trust Account, regardless of whether such claim arises as a result of, in connection with or relating in any way to, the business relationship between the Purchaser, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other
hand, this Agreement, or any other agreement 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 in this
Section 4.11 as the “Trust Claims”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Transaction Documents, the Purchaser hereby irrevocably waives any Trust Claim it may have, now or in the future, and will not seek
recourse against, the Trust Account for any reason whatsoever in respect thereof. In the event that the Purchaser commences any action or proceeding based upon, in connection with, relating to or arising out of any matter relating to the Company,
which proceeding seeks, in whole or in part, relief against the Trust Account or the public stockholders of Company for money damages, the Company shall be entitled to recover from the Purchaser the associated legal fees and costs in connection with
any such action, in the event the Company prevails in such action or proceeding. 
 4.12 Securities Law Compliance. The Purchaser
covenants and agrees that it will not make any sale, transfer or other disposition of the Shares or the Underlying Shares in violation of federal or state securities laws. As soon as practicable and legally permissible after the Closing, the Company
shall commence the Tender Offer to purchase from its stockholders up to 20,625,001 of the outstanding Common Shares, at a price of $8.00 per share. The Tender Offer will be made in accordance with all applicable laws and regulations, including,
without limitation, Rule 13e-4 promulgated under the Exchange Act and otherwise on terms and conditions reasonably satisfactory to the Purchaser. The Company may not increase the number of Common Shares to be purchased or offer to purchase any
other securities of the Company pursuant to the Tender Offer without the prior written consent of the Purchaser. The Purchaser agrees it will not transfer any Common Shares to the Company in the Tender Offer and, prior to the commencement of the
Tender Offer, the Company shall enter into agreements with all officers, former officers, directors and strategic advisory council members of the Company, and affiliates thereof, pursuant to which they will agree not to tender any of their Common
Shares in the Tender Offer. 
 4.13 Notification of Certain Matters. The Company shall give prompt notice to the Purchaser of any
notice or other communication provided by Stream to the Company pursuant to or relating to the Merger Agreement or the transactions contemplated thereby and, to the extent the Company has knowledge, any breach of a representation, warranty or
covenant or other default under the Merger Agreement, or any event, condition or circumstance which could adversely affect the transactions contemplated under the Merger Agreement. The Company shall notify the Purchaser promptly of (i) the
receipt of any comments from the Commission or its 

  

 23 








 
staff and of any request by the Commission or its staff for amendments or supplements to the Proxy Statement or for additional information and (ii) any
event that occurs with respect to the Company, or any change that occurs with respect to other information included in the Proxy Statement, which is required to be described in an amendment of, or a supplement to, the Proxy Statement, and shall

the date of this Agreement, the Company shall file a Current Report on Form 8-K describing (i) the Merger and attaching the material documents related to the Merger (including, without limitation, the Merger Agreement) and (ii) the terms
of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents in the form required by the Exchange Act and attaching the material Transaction Documents (including, without limitation, this Agreement (and all schedules to this Agreement), the form of
the Shares and the Registration Rights Agreement) as exhibits to such filing. 
 4.15 Access. The Company shall, and shall cause its
Subsidiaries to, upon reasonable request and notice, provide Purchaser and its authorized agents and representatives reasonable access to management, outside accountants and consultants, facilities, properties, books and records (financial and
otherwise) of the Company and its Subsidiaries. 
 4.16 Founder Warrants Subscription Agreement. The Company confirms and agrees that
the Subscription Agreements executed by the holders of the Founder Warrants will not be applicable to Purchaser. Purchaser acknowledges that the Founder Warrants will be subject to the Escrow Agreement (as defined in the Warrant Purchase Agreement).
The Company will use its best efforts to obtain all appropriate consents in order for the Purchaser to exchange the Founder Warrants for new warrants for an equal number of Common Shares, with an exercise price of $6.00 per share, a term of ten
years from the Closing, not subject to redemption and otherwise substantially the same as the Founder Warrants (the “Replacement Warrants”). As soon as practicable following the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Merger
Agreement, but in any event not later than one year and one day after the date of the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the Company will take all action necessary to issue to Purchaser the Replacement Warrants.

QUESTIONS CONCERNING THE CONSTRUCTION, VALIDITY, ENFORCEMENT AND INTERPRETATION OF THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE, REGARDLESS OF THE CONFLICTS OF LAWS
PRINCIPLES OF SUCH STATE. EACH PARTY AGREES THAT ALL LEGAL PROCEEDINGS CONCERNING THE INTERPRETATIONS, ENFORCEMENT AND DEFENSE OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY ANY OF THE TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS (WHETHER BROUGHT AGAINST A PARTY HERETO OR ITS
RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES, DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, STOCKHOLDERS, EMPLOYEES OR AGENTS) SHALL BE COMMENCED EXCLUSIVELY IN THE STATE AND U.S. FEDERAL COURTS SITTING IN THE STATE OF DELAWARE. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE EXCLUSIVE
JURISDICTION OF THE STATE AND U.S. FEDERAL COURTS SITTING IN THE STATE OF DELAWARE FOR THE ADJUDICATION OF ANY DISPUTE HEREUNDER OR IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR WITH ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR DISCUSSED HEREIN (INCLUDING WITH RESPECT TO THE

PERSONALLY SUBJECT TO THE JURISDICTION OF ANY SUCH COURT, THAT SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING IS IMPROPER. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES
PERSONAL SERVICE OF PROCESS AND CONSENTS TO PROCESS BEING SERVED IN ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING BY MAILING A COPY THEREOF VIA REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL OR OVERNIGHT DELIVERY (WITH EVIDENCE OF DELIVERY) TO SUCH PARTY AT THE ADDRESS IN

and/or conversion of the Securities, as applicable, until the date that is 12 months after the Closing Date. 
 6.12 Execution. This
Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, all of which when taken together shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the other party, it
being understood that both parties need not sign the same counterpart. In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission, such signature shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such
signature is executed) the same with the same force and effect as if such facsimile signature page were an original thereof. 
 6.13
Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable in any respect, the validity and enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement shall not in any way be affected or impaired
thereby and the parties will attempt in good faith to agree upon a valid and enforceable provision that is a reasonable substitute therefor, and upon so agreeing, shall incorporate such substitute provision in this Agreement. 
 6.14 Rescission and Withdrawal Right. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in (and without limiting any similar provisions of) the
Transaction Documents, whenever the Purchaser exercises a right, election, demand or option under a Transaction Document and the Company does not timely perform its related obligations within the periods therein provided, then the Purchaser may
rescind or withdraw, in its sole discretion from time to time upon written notice to the Company, any relevant notice, demand or election in whole or in part without prejudice to its future actions and rights. 
  

 31 








 6.15 Remedies. In addition to being entitled to exercise all rights provided herein or granted by
law, including recovery of damages, the Purchaser and the Company will be entitled to specific performance under the Transaction Documents. The parties agree that monetary damages may not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of
any breach of obligations described in the foregoing sentence and hereby agree to waive in any Proceeding for specific performance of any such obligation the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate. 
 6.16 Adjustments in Share Numbers and Prices. In the event of any stock split, subdivision, dividend or distribution payable in Common Shares (or
other securities or rights convertible into, or entitling the holder thereof to receive, directly or indirectly, Common Shares), combination or other similar recapitalization or event occurring after the date hereof, each reference in this Agreement
to a number of shares or a price per share shall be amended to appropriately account for such event. 
 6.17 Tax Treatment of the
Preferred Shares. So long as the Shares are held by the Purchaser, the Company shall not treat the Shares as “preferred stock” for purposes of Section 305 of the Code, unless and until there is a “final determination” to
the contrary within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code.
