Exhibit A


 


FOUNDER SHARES


 


	Earnout Trigger	
        With respect to 50% of the Founder Shares, the last sale price
        of the Company’s common stock equals or exceeds $12.50 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, dividends, reorganizations,
        recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period; and

         

        With respect to remaining 50% of the Founder Shares, the last
        sale price of the Company’s common stock equals or exceeds $15.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, dividends, reorganizations,
        recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period; or

         

        in either case, the Company completes a liquidation, merger,
        stock exchange or other similar transaction that results in all or substantially all of its stockholders having the right to exchange
        their shares of common stock for consideration in cash, securities or other property or any transaction involving a consolidation,
        merger, proxy contest, tender offer or similar transaction in which the company is the surviving entity which results in a change
        in the majority of our board of directors or management team or the Company’s stockholders immediately prior to such transaction
        ceasing to own a majority of the surviving entity immediately after such transaction.

         

	Antidilution Protection	
        Founder Shares will not participate in dividends or other distributions
        with respect to the shares prior to the Earnout Trigger being met, whereupon the number of Founder Shares shall be entitled to
        all dividends and distributions paid on the common stock after the Nexeo Business Combination as if they had been holders of record
        entitled to receive distributions on the applicable record date.

         

	Forfeiture Date	
        Tenth anniversary of the consummation of the Nexeo Business
        Combination, solely in the event that the Earnout Trigger has not been met.

         

	Treatment of Forfeited Shares	The Company would record the aggregate fair value of the shares forfeited and reacquired to treasury stock and a corresponding credit to additional paid-in capital based on the difference between the fair market value of the forfeited shares and the pro-rata portion of the price paid to the Company for such forfeited shares of approximately $25,000. Upon receipt, such forfeited shares would then be immediately cancelled, which would result in the retirement of the treasury stock and a corresponding charge to additional paid-in capital.
