**Introductory Note**

On June 12, 2026, Graf Global Corp., a Cayman Islands exempted company (together with its successors, including after the Conversion, "**Graf**"), filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("**SEC**") a Current Report on Form 8-K (the "**Original Form 8-K**") in connection with Graf's entry into a Business Combination Agreement, dated as of June 12, 2026 (the "**Business Combination Agreement**"), by and among Graf, BIG3 HoldCo LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("**Big3**"), Halfcourt Holdco, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("**Pubco**"), Halfcourt Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pubco ("**SPAC Merger Sub**"), and Halfcourt Merger Sub LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pubco ("**Company Merger Sub**" and, together with SPAC Merger Sub, the "**Merger Subs**"). This Current Report on Form 8-K/A amends the Original Form 8-K (as amended, this "**Report**"). No other amendments are being made to the Original Form 8-K by this Report. Capitalized terms used in this Report but not otherwise defined herein have the meanings given to them in the Business Combination Agreement.

**Item 1.01 Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.**

**<u>Business Combination Agreement</u>**

As previously disclosed, on June 12, 2026, Graf, Big3, Pubco, and the Merger Subs entered into the Business Combination Agreement.

***General Description of the Business Combination Agreement***

Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, and on the terms and subject to the conditions thereof, among other things, (a) on the day that is one day prior to the date of the SPAC Merger (as defined below), Graf will transfer, by way of continuation, out of the Cayman Islands and into the State of Delaware so as to re-domicile as and become a Delaware corporation (the "**Domestication**"), and (b) at the Closing (as defined below), (i) SPAC Merger Sub will merge with and into Graf, with Graf continuing as the surviving entity and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pubco (the "**SPAC Merger**", and the time of the SPAC Merger, the "**SPAC Merger Effective Time**") and (ii) Company Merger Sub will merge with and into Big3, with Big3 continuing as the surviving entity and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pubco (the "**Company Merger**", and the time of the Company Merger, the "**Company Merger Effective Time**", and the Company Merger together with the SPAC Merger, the "**Mergers**"). The Mergers, collectively with the Domestication and all other transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement, are referred to in this Report as the "**Business Combination**".

Big3 is in the sports entertainment business and operates a professional three-on-three basketball league. Big3 has generated revenue through its existing operations, including revenue from team sales, sponsorships, advertising, event ticket sales and merchandise sales.

The Business Combination Agreement and the Business Combination were unanimously approved by the board of directors of Graf and the board of managers of Big3 and were approved by the requisite equityholders of Big3. The closing of the Business Combination (the "**Closing**") is anticipated to occur in the fourth quarter of 2026, subject to the receipt of the required approvals by Graf's shareholders, Big3's noteholders and the satisfaction of other customary closing conditions.

***Consideration***

 ****

The aggregate consideration to be paid or payable to holders of the equity securities of Big3 and securities convertible into equity securities of Big3 as of the Company Merger Effective Time pursuant to the Company Merger will consist of a number of newly issued shares of Pubco Common Stock equal to (x) the result of (i) $290,000,000 plus (ii) Big3's Cash Position at the Company Merger Effective Time, divided by (y) the Per Share Price (the "**Merger Consideration**"). Also, at the Closing, Pubco shall cause the holders of Big3 membership interests immediately prior to the Closing to be issued an aggregate of an additional 2,000,000 shares of Pubco Class A Common Stock, which shall be unvested and subject to forfeiture as described below (the "**Earnout Shares**").

Immediately prior to the Domestication, the following will occur: (i) Graf will cause to be redeemed all SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares validly submitted for redemption (the "**Redemption**"), (ii) to the extent any SPAC Public Units remain outstanding and unseparated, the SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares and SPAC Public Warrants comprising each such issued and outstanding SPAC Public Unit will be automatically separated (the "**Unit Separation**") and the holder of each SPAC Public Unit will be deemed to hold one (1) SPAC Class A Ordinary Share and one-half (1/2) of one SPAC Public Warrant, and (iii) pursuant to the Sponsor Support Agreement and SPAC Organizational Documents (as applicable), the Sponsor will surrender the Sponsor Forfeited Shares and the SPAC Class B Share Conversion will occur (each as described in more detail below).

At the SPAC Merger Effective Time, by virtue of the SPAC Merger and without any action on the part of any Party or the holders of securities of Graf or Big3:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;a) *Graf common stock.* Each issued and outstanding share
of Graf's common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (after giving effect to the Redemption, Unit Separation, forfeiture of Sponsor
Forfeited Shares, SPAC Class B Share Conversion, and Domestication and excluding any treasury stock) (the "**Graf Common Stock** ")
will be converted automatically into and thereafter represent the right to receive one share of Pubco Class A Common Stock, following
which, all shares of Graf Common Stock will cease to be outstanding and will automatically be cancelled and cease to exist;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;b) *Graf Warrants*. Each issued and outstanding Graf warrant that was issued in Graf's initial
public offering (after giving effect to the Domestication) (the "**Graf Public Warrants**") will be converted into one
warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one share of Pubco Class A Common Stock at a price of $11.50 per share (the "**Pubco Public Warrants**") and each issued and outstanding Graf warrant that was issued in a private placement concurrent with Graf's
initial public offering or upon the conversion of up to $1,000,000 of working capital loans (collectively, the "**Graf Private Warrants**" and together with the Graf Public Warrants, the "**Graf Warrants**") will be converted into one warrant
entitling the holder thereof to purchase one share of Pubco Class A Common Stock at a price of $11.50 per share (the "**Pubco Private Warrants**" and together with the Pubco Public Warrants, the "**Pubco Warrants** "). At the SPAC Merger Effective
Time, the Graf Warrants will cease to be outstanding and will automatically be cancelled and retired and cease to exist;

At the Company Merger Effective Time, by virtue of the Company Merger and without any action on the part of any party or the holders of securities of Graf or Big3:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;a) *Big3 Interests*. Each issued and outstanding membership
interest of Big3 (the "**Big3 Interests**") immediately prior to the Company Merger Effective Time will be cancelled and
cease to exist in exchange for the right to receive the Merger Consideration. As of the Company Merger Effective Time, each holder of
Big3 Interests will cease to have any other rights with respect to the Big3 Interests;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) holders of Big3's equity securities and securities convertible into equity securities of Big3 (the
" **Sellers**") (other than the High Vote Sellers (as defined below)) holding the Class A Units, Class B Units and Preferred
Units will receive their respective Percentage Merger Consideration in the form of Pubco Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share
(" **Pubco Class A Common Stock** "); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Jeffrey Kwatinetz and O'Shea Jackson Sr. (or any of their Affiliates) and BigFourH Holdings LLC,
in each case, insofar as such person is a Seller as of immediately prior to the Company Merger Effective Time (the "**High Vote Sellers**") holding the Class A Units, Class B Units and Preferred Units will receive their respective Percentage Merger Consideration
in the form of Class B common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of Pubco, which will have ten votes per share (the "**Pubco Class B Common Stock** "), compared to only one vote per share entitled to holders of the Pubco Class A Common Stock.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;b) *Big3 Warrants.* Each warrant to purchase any equity interest
in Big3 (the "**Big3 Warrants**") that is outstanding immediately prior to the Company Merger Effective Time will be converted
into and become a warrant exercisable for Pubco Class A Common Stock, and Pubco will assume each Big3 Warrant, in accordance with the
terms of the Big3 Warrant, except that from and after the Company Merger Effective Time, (a) each Big3 Warrant assumed by Pubco may be
exercised solely for shares of Pubco Class A Common Stock constituting Merger Consideration, and (b) the number of shares of Pubco Class
A Common Stock constituting Merger Consideration subject to such converted Big3 Warrant and the per share exercise price under each such
converted Big3 Warrant will be as set forth in the Business Combination Agreement; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;c) *Big3 Convertible Securities.* Any outstanding options,
warrants or rights (other than any Big3 Interest) to subscribe for or purchase any equity securities of Big3 or securities or notes convertible
into or exchangeable for, or that otherwise confer on the holder any right to acquire any equity securities of any Target Company ()"**Big3 Convertible Security**") (excluding (x) Big3 Warrants that are converted into warrants exercisable for Pubco Class A Common Stock
and (y) Preferred Units that are converted into Merger Consideration), if not exercised or converted prior to the Company Merger Effective
Time, will be cancelled, retired and terminated and cease to represent a right to acquire, be exchanged for or convert into Big3 Interests
or any other securities.

*Earnout Shares.* In addition to the Merger Consideration, the holders of Big3 Interests immediately prior to the Closing will receive their applicable portion of the Earnout Shares, rounded down to the nearest whole number. The Earnout Shares will vest upon the first to be satisfied of the following conditions: (i) if, at any time during the period beginning on the Closing Date and ending on the fifth (5<sup>th</sup>) anniversary of the Closing (the "**Earnout Period**"), the closing price of the Pubco Class A Common Stock as reported on the Stock Exchange is greater than or equal to $15.00 (the "**Earnout Price**") for a period of at least 20 days (which need not be consecutive) out of 30 consecutive trading days, all of the Earnout Shares shall immediately vest; and (ii) in the event that there is a Sale of Pubco during the Earnout Period, and the holders of Pubco Common Stock receive a Sale Price that is greater than or equal to the Earnout Price, all of the Earnout Shares will immediately vest. Further, in the event that there is a Sale of Pubco during the Earnout Period, and immediately prior to (but subject to) the consummation of the Sale, the holders of Pubco Common Stock receive a Sale Price that is less than the Earnout Price, (x) if such Sale Price is payable in cash or in the form of privately held securities or other consideration other than publicly tradable securities, then all of the Earnout Shares will be deemed forfeited and cancelled for no consideration or (ii) if such price is payable in the form of publicly tradable securities, then Pubco will cause the acquiror in such Sale to provide for the conversion of all of the Earnout Shares into the kind and amount of such publicly tradable securities receivable upon such Sale of Pubco that the holders of Pubco Common Stock receive in such Sale and will provide that the Earnout Shares, as so converted, will remain subject to vesting, with an appropriate adjustment to the Earnout Price to provide the same economic effect as contemplated by the earnout.

For so long as any Earnout Share remains subject to vesting, the holder thereof will not be entitled to exercise the voting rights carried by such Earnout Share and will not be entitled to receive any dividends or other distributions in respect of such Earnout Share.

***Representations and Warranties***

The Business Combination Agreement contains representations and warranties customary for similar transactions, made by the parties as of the date of the Business Combination Agreement or other specified dates, solely for the benefit of certain of the parties to the Business Combination Agreement, and in certain cases are subject to specified exceptions and qualifications, such as materiality, the absence of a Material Adverse Effect (as defined below), knowledge and other exceptions and qualifications contained in the Business Combination Agreement or in information provided pursuant to certain disclosure schedules to the Business Combination Agreement.

As used in the Business Combination Agreement, "Material Adverse Effect" means, with respect to any specified Person, any fact, event, occurrence, change or effect that has had, or would reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect upon (a) the business, assets, Liabilities, results of operations, prospects or condition (financial or otherwise) of such Person and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or (b) the ability of such Person or any of its Subsidiaries on a timely basis to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement or the Ancillary Documents to which it is a party or bound or to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder, in each case subject to certain customary exceptions.

***No Survival***

The representations and warranties of the parties contained in the Business Combination Agreement will not survive the closing of the Transactions and there are no indemnification rights for another party's breach. The covenants and agreements of the parties contained in the Business Combination Agreement do not survive the Closing, except those covenants and agreements to be performed after the Closing, which covenants and agreements will survive until fully performed.

***Covenants***

Each party to the Business Combination Agreement has agreed to use its commercially reasonable efforts to consummate the Business Combination. The Business Combination Agreement also contains certain customary covenants by each of the parties that apply during the period between the signing of the Business Combination Agreement and the earlier of the Closing or the termination of the Business Combination Agreement (the "**Interim Period**"), including (i) the provision of access to the applicable party's properties, books and personnel; (ii) the operation of the parties' respective businesses in the ordinary course of business; (iii) Graf's public filings; (iv) no insider trading; (v) notifications to the other parties of certain breaches, consent requirements and other matters; (vi) obtaining third party and regulatory approvals; (vii) tax matters; (viii) further assurances; (ix) public announcements; (x) confidentiality; and other covenants. The Business Combination Agreement also contains certain customary post-Closing covenants, including in regard to (1) tax matters; (2) the maintenance of books and records; (3) the indemnification of directors and officers; (4) the use of proceeds from Graf's trust account (the "**Trust Account**"); (5) the assignment and assumption of the Underwriting Agreement, (6) the adoption of a post-closing equity incentive plan; and (7) the entry into a sponsor indemnification agreement; and other covenants. Additionally, each of Graf and Big3 will not solicit or enter into a competing alternative transaction, in accordance with customary terms and provisions set forth in the Business Combination Agreement.

Graf will not change, withdraw, withhold, qualify or modify its recommendation to its shareholders for approval of the Business Combination Agreement and the Business Combination (a "**Change in Recommendation**"); provided, however, that if at any time prior to (but not after) obtaining the approval of the Graf shareholders, the Graf board determines in good faith, in response to an "Intervening Event" (including any material event or development following the date of the Business Combination Agreement that was not known by or reasonably foreseeable to, or the consequences or magnitude of which were not reasonably foreseeable to, the board of directors of Graf as of the date of the Business Combination Agreement, except for changes relating to the Business Combination, changes in the price or trading volume of Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share, of Graf (the "**Graf Class A Ordinary Shares**"), certain changes specified in the definition of Material Adverse Effect and certain other changes) after consultation with its outside legal counsel, that the failure to make a Change in Recommendation would be a breach of its fiduciary duties under applicable law, then the board may make a Change in Recommendation provided that Graf delivers, pursuant to procedures set forth in the Business Combination Agreement, written notice advising Big3 that the Graf board proposes to take such action and containing the material facts underlying the board's determination. If requested by Big3, Graf will use its reasonable best efforts to engage in good faith negotiations with Big3 to make adjustments in the terms and conditions of the Business Combination Agreement that obviate the need for a Change in Recommendation.

Big3 and Pubco agreed to deliver to Graf financial statements audited by a PCAOB-qualified auditor in accordance with PCAOB auditing standards for Big3's fiscal years ended December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2025, and for Pubco, as of a date to be determined, accompanied by an unqualified opinion of the auditor thereon, as soon as practicable after the date of the Business Combination Agreement but no later than 60 days from the date of the Business Combination Agreement. In addition, Big3 agreed to deliver to Graf unaudited quarterly financial information through the Closing Date.

Graf, Big3 and Pubco will, as promptly as practicable after the date of the Business Combination Agreement, prepare, and Pubco and Big3 will file, with the SEC, a registration statement on Form S-4 (as amended, the "**Registration Statement**") in connection with the registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "**Securities Act**"), of the securities of Pubco to be issued pursuant to the Business Combination, and containing a proxy statement/prospectus for the solicitation of proxies from Graf shareholders to approve the Business Combination Agreement, the Business Combination and related matters at an extraordinary general meeting of Graf's shareholders, and providing Graf's public shareholders with an opportunity to request Redemption of their public shares in connection with the Transactions, as required by Graf's amended and restated memorandum and articles of association and Graf's initial public offering prospectus.

The parties will take all action necessary so that, effective at the Closing, the post-Closing board of directors of Pubco (the "**Post-Closing Pubco Board**") will consist of up to seven individuals, with one director designated by Graf, who will be an independent director in accordance with the requirements of the Nasdaq Stock Market, New York Stock Exchange, NYSE American or another national securities exchange mutually determined by Graf and Big3 prior to the Closing (the "**Stock Exchange**"), and up to six directors will be designated by Big3. The parties will also take all action necessary so that the individuals serving as the chief executive officer and chief financial officer, respectively, of Pubco immediately after the Closing will be the same individuals (in the same office) as that of Big3 immediately prior to the Closing (unless, at its sole discretion, Big3 desires to appoint another qualified person to either such role, in which case, such other person(s) identified by Big3 will serve in such role or roles).

During the Interim Period, Graf will use its reasonable best efforts to enter into financing agreements with accredited investors for one or more transaction financings by Pubco, on such terms and structuring, and using such strategy, placement agents and approach, as Graf and Big3 reasonably agree (the "**Transaction Financing**"). Each of Pubco, Graf and Big3 will use its reasonable best efforts to consummate such transaction financings on or prior to the Closing. These financings may be structured as one, or a combination of, common equity, preferred equity, convertible equity or debt, non-redemption or backstop arrangements with respect to Graf's Trust Account, a committed equity facility, debt facility and/or other sources of cash or cash equivalents, in each case, whether such investment is into Graf, Big3 or Pubco.

***Closing Conditions***

Under the Business Combination Agreement, unless waived by Graf or Big3, the obligations of the parties to consummate the Business Combination are subject to a number of conditions customary in transactions undertaken by special purpose acquisition companies, including, among others: (i) the receipt of the approval of Graf's shareholders of the Business Combination Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby; (ii) the expiration or termination of any applicable waiting periods under antitrust laws, the receipt of all required government and certain third-party consents, and the consummation of the Business Combination not being prohibited by applicable law; (iii) the effectiveness of the Registration Statement; (iv) the consummation of the Domestication; and (v) the shares of Pubco Class A Common Stock having been approved for listing on the Stock Exchange, subject only to official notice of issuance.

Unless waived by Graf, the obligations of Graf to consummate the Business Combination are also subject to the satisfaction of the following closing conditions, in addition to customary closing certificates and other closing deliveries: (i) the representations and warranties of Big3, Pubco, and the Merger Subs (the "**Company Parties**") being true and correct, subject where applicable to materiality standards contained in the Business Combination Agreement; (ii) performance of the obligations of the Company Parties and compliance by the Company Parties with their respective pre-closing covenants, including in connection with the Seller Written Consent (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement), subject where applicable to materiality standards contained in the Business Combination Agreement; (iii) no occurrence of a Material Adverse Effect with respect to Big3 since the date of the Business Combination Agreement; (iv) the receipt of the approval of each holder of certain convertible promissory notes for the conversion of such notes into membership interest in Big3; (v) certain specified ancillary documents, including employment agreements between Pubco and each of Jeffrey Kwatinetz, O'Shea Jackson, Sr. and Sean Bannon, being in full force and effect; (vi) the appointment of the Post-Closing Pubco Board and the directors and officers insurance coverage having been obtained; (vii) Pubco's amending and restating of its certificate of incorporation and its adoption of an incentive plan, in each case, in a form compliant with the requirements of the Business Combination Agreement; and (viii) Big3's repayment of its indebtedness and release of related liens.

Unless waived by Big3, the obligations of the Company Parties to consummate the Business Combination are also subject to the satisfaction of the following closing conditions, in addition to customary closing certificates and other closing deliveries: (i) the representations and warranties of Graf being true and correct, subject where applicable to materiality standards contained in the Business Combination Agreement; (ii) performance of the obligations of Graf and compliance by Graf with its pre-closing covenants, subject where applicable to materiality standards contained in the Business Combination Agreement; (iii) a sponsor support agreement, in the form required by the Business Combination Agreement, being in full force and effect; (iv) certain other specified ancillary documents being in full force and effect; and (v) at least $50,000,000 (a) available for release to Graf or Pubco from Graf's Trust Account in connection with the Business Combination after giving effect to the Redemption, plus (b) the aggregate cash proceeds received by Graf or Pubco in respect any Transaction Financing, minus (c) unpaid expenses of Graf and Big3.

***Termination***

The Business Combination Agreement contains certain termination rights, including, among others, the following: (i) upon the mutual written consent of Graf and Big3; (ii) by either Graf or Big3 if the closing conditions pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement have not been satisfied or waived by the earlier of December 27, 2026 and the last date for Graf to complete a business combination pursuant to its Organizational Documents (provided that the party seeking to terminate was not the cause of the failure to complete the conditions by that date); (iii) by Graf or Big3 if a governmental authority issues an order or takes any other action permanently restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the Business Combination (provided that the right to terminate is not available to a party if the failure by such party or its affiliates to comply with any provision of the Business Combination Agreement is a substantial cause of, or substantially resulted in, such action); (iv) by Big3 in connection with a breach of a representation, warranty, covenant or other agreement by Graf, if the breach would result in the failure of the related condition to Closing and the breach or inaccuracy is incapable of being cured or is not cured in accordance with the terms of the Business Combination Agreement; (v) by Graf in connection with a breach of a representation, warranty, covenant or other agreement by Big3, if the breach would result in the failure of the related condition to Closing and the breach or inaccuracy is incapable of being cured or is not cured in accordance with the terms of the Business Combination Agreement; (vi) by Graf if there has been a Material Adverse Effect on Big3 or its direct or indirect subsidiaries following the date of the Business Combination Agreement which is uncured and continuing; (vii) by either Graf or Big3 if the Graf shareholder meeting is held and the Graf shareholder approval is not received; and (viii) by Graf if Big3 has not delivered its required audited financial statements to Graf within 60 days from the date of the Business Combination Agreement.

If the Business Combination Agreement is terminated in accordance with the terms of the Business Combination Agreement, all further obligations of the parties under the Business Combination Agreement (except for certain obligations related to public announcements, confidentiality, fees and expenses, the trust fund waiver, the effect of termination, and customary miscellaneous provisions) will terminate and no party to the Business Combination Agreement will have any further liability to any other party thereto except for liability for fraud or for willful breach of the Business Combination Agreement prior to termination.

***Trust Account Waiver***

Big3 has agreed that it and its affiliates will not have any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies in Graf's Trust Account held for its public shareholders, and has agreed not to, and has waived any right to, make any claim against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom).

***Governing Law***

The Business Combination Agreement is governed by New York law; provided, however, that any matters that are required to be governed by the laws of the Cayman Islands (including, without limitation, fiduciary duties that may apply to directors and officers, as applicable) will be governed by the laws of the Cayman Islands. The parties are subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of federal and state courts located in New York County, State of New York (and any appellate courts thereof).

*A copy of the Business Combination Agreement is attached as Exhibit 2.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference. The foregoing description of the Business Combination Agreement and the Business Combination does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Business Combination Agreement filed with this Current Report on Form 8-K/A. The Business Combination Agreement is included to provide security holders with information regarding its terms. It is not intended to provide any other factual information about Graf, Big3, Pubco, or the Merger Subs. In particular, the assertions embodied in representations and warranties by Graf, Big3, Pubco, and the Merger Subs contained in the Business Combination Agreement are subject to important qualifications and limitations agreed to by the parties in connection with negotiating such agreement, including being qualified by confidential information in the disclosure schedules provided by the parties in connection with the execution of the Business Combination Agreement, and are subject to standards of materiality applicable to the contracting parties that may differ from those applicable to security holders. The confidential disclosures contain information that modifies, qualifies and creates exceptions to the representations and warranties set forth in the Business Combination Agreement. Moreover, certain representations and warranties in the Business Combination Agreement were used for the purpose of allocating risk between the parties, rather than establishing matters as facts. Accordingly, security holders should not rely on the representations and warranties in the Business Combination Agreement as characterizations of the actual state of facts about Graf, Big3, Pubco, and the Merger Subs. Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of the representations and warranties may change after the date of the Business Combination Agreement, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in Graf's public disclosures.*

***Sponsor Support Agreement***

Concurrently with the execution of the Business Combination Agreement, Graf entered into the Sponsor Support Agreement (the "**Sponsor Support Agreement**") with Graf Global Sponsor LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the "**Sponsor**"), each of Graf's independent directors (together with Sponsor, the "**Insiders**"), Pubco and Big3, pursuant to which the Sponsor agreed to, among other things, vote in favor of the SPAC Shareholder Approval Matters and otherwise support the Business Combination.

In addition, the Sponsor Support Agreement prohibits each Insider from, among other things, selling, assigning or transferring any Graf Ordinary Shares or Graf Public Warrants held by such Insider except to certain permitted transferees, until the earliest of (a) the date of the Closing, (b) such date and time as the Business Combination Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms; (c) the liquidation of Graf; (d) the written agreement of each of the terminating Insider(s), Graf, Pubco and Big3 with respect to terminating the rights and obligations under the Sponsor Support Agreement of a specific Insider or a subset of Insiders; and (e) the written agreement of all Insiders, Graf, Pubco and Big3 to terminate the Sponsor Support Agreement in its entirety. Pursuant to the Sponsor Support Agreement, each Insider unconditionally and irrevocably agreed not to submit any Graf Class A Ordinary Shares owned by it for redemption in connection with the Transactions or an Extension.

In addition, pursuant to the Sponsor Support Agreement, the Sponsor will, effective as of immediately prior to the Domestication and conditioned upon the Closing, forfeit and surrender to Graf an aggregate of 2,750,000 Graf Class B ordinary shares held by the Sponsor. The Sponsor may, in its discretion, transfer to third parties up to an additional 500,000 Graf Class B ordinary shares held by the Sponsor to incentivize non-redemptions or investments into Graf or Pubco or otherwise to support the Transactions (the "**Discretionary Founder Shares**"), provided that any portion of the Discretionary Founder Shares that are not so transferred shall be forfeited by the Sponsor and surrendered to Graf.

In addition, pursuant to the Sponsor Support Agreement, 500,000 shares of Pubco Class A Common Stock to be held by the Sponsor as of the Closing (the "**Sponsor Earnout Shares**") will be subject to vesting and will vest upon the first to be satisfied of any of the following conditions:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) in the event that the sum of (x) the funds contained in the Trust Account as of immediately prior to the SPAC Merger Effective Time, *plus* (y) the aggregate cash proceeds received by Graf or Pubco in respect of any Transaction Financing, *minus* (z) the aggregate amount of cash proceeds that will be required to satisfy the Redemption (and, for the avoidance of doubt, before the payment of any expenses of Graf or Big3) equals or exceeds $200,000,000, all of the Sponsor Earnout Shares will immediately vest;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) if, at any time during the Earnout Period the closing price of the Pubco Class A Common Stock as reported on the Stock Exchange is greater than or equal the Earnout Price for a period of at least 20 days (which need not be consecutive) out of 30 consecutive trading days, all of the Sponsor Earnout Shares will immediately vest; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) in the event that there is a Sale of Pubco during the Earnout Period, and the holders of Pubco Common Stock receive a Sale Price that is greater than or equal to the Earnout Price, all of the Sponsor Earnout Shares will immediately vest.

Further, in the event that there is a Sale of Pubco during the Earnout Period, and immediately prior to (but subject to) the consummation of the Sale, the holders of Pubco Common Stock receive a Sale Price that is less than the Earnout Price, (x) if such Sale Price is payable in cash or in the form of privately held securities or other consideration other than publicly tradable securities, then all of the Sponsor Earnout Shares will be deemed forfeited and cancelled for no consideration or (ii) if such price is payable in the form of publicly tradable securities, then Pubco will cause the acquiror in such Sale to provide for the conversion of all of the Sponsor Earnout Shares into the kind and amount of such publicly tradable securities receivable upon such Sale of Pubco that the holders of Pubco Common Stock receive in such Sale and will provide that the Sponsor Earnout Shares, as so converted, will remain subject to vesting, with an appropriate adjustment to the Earnout Price to provide the same economic effect as contemplated by the earnout.

For so long as any Sponsor Earnout Share remains subject to vesting, the holder thereof will not be entitled to exercise the voting rights carried by such Sponsor Earnout Share and will not be entitled to receive any dividends or other distributions in respect of such Sponsor Earnout Share.

***Lock-Up Agreements***

Concurrently with the Closing, each Seller, the Sponsor, Cantor Fitzgerald & Co., the underwriter of Graf's initial public offering (the "**IPO Underwriter**"), and each director of Graf will enter into a lock-up agreement (the "**Lock-Up Agreement**"), pursuant to which such person will agree not to (i) lend, offer, pledge, hypothecate, encumber, donate, assign, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any shares of Pubco Common Stock to be received by such person in the Business Combination, (ii) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of such shares of Pubco Common Stock, or (iii) publicly disclose the intention to do any of the foregoing, for a period commencing from the Closing and ending on the date that is 6 months after the Closing, subject to certain customary transfer exceptions.

Such holders will also be entitled to customary piggyback registration rights and demand registration rights pursuant to the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement.

*The foregoing description of the Registration Rights Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the form of Registration Rights Agreement, a copy of which is included as Exhibit 10.3 to this Current Report on Form 8-K/A, and incorporated herein by reference.*

As a result, at the Closing, each Graf Warrant will automatically cease to represent a right to acquire Graf Class A Ordinary Shares and instead will represent a right to acquire Pubco Class A common stock pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Existing Warrant Agreement (as amended by the Warrant Assumption Agreement).

*The foregoing description of the Warrant Assumption Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the form of Warrant Assumption Agreement, a copy of which is included as Exhibit 10.4 to this Current Report on Form 8-K/A, and incorporated herein by reference.*

The Pubco A&R Charter will implement a dual class stock structure wherein Pubco's common stock will consist of Class A Common Stock, entitling the holders thereof to one vote per share on all matters on which the shares of Class A Common Stock are entitled to vote, and Class B Common Stock, which will have economic rights (including dividend and liquidation rights) identical to those of the Class A Common Stock but the holders thereof will be entitled to ten votes per share on all matters on which the shares of Class B Common Stock are entitled to vote, which voting structure will terminate on the date that is ten years after the Closing Date, or earlier in certain circumstances as more fully set forth in the Pubco A&R Charter.

**<u>Convertible Promissory Note</u>**

On June 10, 2026, Graf issued a convertible promissory note (the "**Convertible Promissory Note**") to Harraden Circle Investments, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the "**Payee**"), which included as a party James Graf, Graf's Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, and director and affiliate of the Sponsor, solely with respect to the last sentence of Section 17 thereof. Pursuant to the Convertible Promissory Note, Graf may borrow up to $200,000 (the "**Loan**") from the Payee for working capital and general corporate purposes. The Loan includes $50,000 previously advanced by the Payee to Graf in March 2026, $75,000 previously advanced by the Payee to Graf in April 2026, and $75,000 drawn by Graf concurrently with the execution of the Convertible Promissory Note. As a result, the Loan has been fully drawn down and no amounts are available for further drawdowns. The Convertible Promissory Note replaced and superseded the promissory note among Graf, Payee, and James Graf dated June 4, 2026. The Loan may, at the Payee's discretion, be converted into Graf Class A Ordinary Shares at a conversion price equal to $10.00 per share (the "**Conversion Shares**").

In addition, pursuant to the Convertible Promissory Note, the Payee is entitled to receive one warrant (each a "**Warrant**") to purchase one Graf Class A Ordinary Shares (the "**Issuance Warrants**") for each dollar funded under the Loan to be issued immediately prior to the closing of Graf's initial business combination. The terms of the Warrants will be identical to those of the private placement warrants that were issued to the Sponsor in connection with Graf's initial public offering that was consummated on June 27, 2024, including the transfer restrictions applicable to such private placement warrants.

The Loan will not bear any interest before due, and will be repayable by Graf to the Payee, if not converted, upon the earlier of the closing of Graf's initial business combination and its liquidation. If Graf liquidates, the Loan will be repaid only from funds held outside of the trust account established in connection with Graf's initial public offering. The maturity date of the Loan may be accelerated upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined under the Convertible Promissory Note).

In lieu of issuing the Conversion Shares and/or Issuance Warrants, the Sponsor may re-allocate securities among members of the Sponsor and Graf Global Management LLC to satisfy Graf's obligations to issue Conversion Shares and Issuance Warrants under the Convertible Promissory Note, in which case neither Graf nor Pubco will not be separately obligated to issue such securities. Graf agreed to register the resale of the Conversion Shares, Issuance Warrants, and the Graf Class A Ordinary Shares underlying the Issuance Warrants. Graf has also agreed to reimburse the Payee's attorney's fees incurred in connection with the preparation of the Convertible Promissory Note.

*The foregoing description of the Convertible Promissory Note does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the terms and conditions thereof. A copy of the Convertible Promissory Note is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.6 and incorporated herein by reference.*

The information relating to the Convertible Promissory Note disclosed under Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K/A is incorporated by reference into this Item 2.03 to the extent required herein.

The disclosures set forth above in Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K/A with respect to the issuance of shares of Pubco Common Stock to certain Big3 equityholders pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement and the Convertible Promissory Note are incorporated by reference herein. The (i) Pubco Common Stock issuable in connection with the Business Combination to the High Vote Sellers and (ii) Conversion Shares and Issuance Warrants issuable in connection with the Convertible Promissory Note will not be registered under the Securities Act, in reliance on the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and/or Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act, as a transaction by an issuer not involving a public offering.

**Additional Information about the Business Combination and Where to Find It**

**Article I<u><br> MERGER</u>**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.1 <u>Pre-Conversion Actions</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Further, for so long as any Earnout Shares remain subject to the vesting conditions specified in this <u>Section 1.10</u>, (i) the holder thereof will not be entitled to exercise the voting rights carried by such Earnout Shares and (ii) the holder thereof will not be entitled to receive any dividends or other distributions in respect of such Earnout Shares; provided, that any dividends or distributions paid or made in respect of such Earnout Shares will be retained by Pubco and invested as and to the extent determined by Pubco, and such dividends or distributions (together with any earnings thereon) will be paid or made to the holder of such Earnout Shares only when and to the extent that such Earnout Shares vest in accordance with this <u>Section 1.10</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) If, upon the expiration of the Earnout Period, the vesting of the Earnout Shares has not occurred in accordance with this <u>Section 1.10</u>, then the Earnout Shares will be forfeited to Pubco for no consideration, and no Person (other than Pubco) will have any further right with respect thereto.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) For U.S. federal (and applicable state, local and non-U.S.) income Tax purposes, the Parties intend that (i) the Earnout Shares shall be treated as contingent stock consideration delivered by Pubco in connection with the Mergers (and, for the avoidance of doubt, as part of the Intended Tax Treatment, including the transaction described in Section 351 of the Code), with the issuance and any subsequent vesting thereof reported consistent with such treatment, and (ii) the Earnout Shares are not (and shall not be treated as) compensation for services within the meaning of Section 83 of the Code. Any withholding required in respect of the Earnout Shares (including any amount treated as interest under Section 483 of the Code, if any) shall be effected in accordance with Section 1.15.

**Article IX<u><br> WAIVERS AND RELEASES</u>**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.1 <u>Waiver of Claims Against Trust</u>. Reference is made to the IPO Prospectus. The Company hereby represents and warrants that it has read the IPO Prospectus and understands that SPAC has established the Trust Account containing the proceeds of the IPO and from certain private placements occurring simultaneously with the IPO (including interest accrued from time to time thereon) for the benefit of SPAC's public shareholders (the "***Public Shareholders***") and that, except as otherwise described in the IPO Prospectus, SPAC may disburse monies from the Trust Account only: (a) to the Public Shareholders in the event they elect to redeem their SPAC shares in connection with the consummation of SPAC's initial business combination (as such term is used in the IPO Prospectus) (the "***Business Combination***") or in connection with a shareholder vote to amend our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (A) to modify the substance or timing of the SPAC's obligation to redeem 100% of its public shares if the SPAC does not complete its initial Business Combination within the required time period or (B) with respect to any other material provisions relating to shareholders' rights or pre-initial Business Combination activity, (b) to the Public Shareholders if SPAC fails to consummate a Business Combination within twenty-four (24) months after the closing of the IPO, subject to extension by an amendment to SPAC's organizational documents (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), (c) with respect to any interest earned on the amounts held in the Trust Account, amounts necessary to pay for any franchise or income taxes or (d) to SPAC after or concurrently with the consummation of a Business Combination. For and in consideration of SPAC 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, none of 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 SPAC or any of its Representatives, on the one hand, and the Company or any of its Affiliates or 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 herein as, the "***Released Claims***"). The Company, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates, hereby irrevocably waives any Released Claims that any such Party 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 SPAC 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 SPAC or its Affiliates). The Company agrees and acknowledges that such irrevocable waiver is material to this Agreement and specifically relied upon by SPAC and its Affiliates to induce SPAC to enter into this Agreement, and the Company further intends and understands such waiver to be valid, binding and enforceable against such Party and each of its Affiliates under applicable Law. To the extent that the Company or any of its respective Affiliates commences any Action based upon, in connection with, relating to or arising out of any matter relating to SPAC or its Representatives, which proceeding seeks, in whole or in part, monetary relief against SPAC or its Representatives, the Company hereby acknowledges and agrees that its and its Affiliates' sole remedy shall be against funds held outside of the Trust Account and that such claim shall not permit such Party or any of its Affiliates (or any Person claiming on any of their behalf or in lieu of them) to have any claim against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) or any amounts contained therein. In the event that the Company or any of its respective Affiliates commences Action based upon, in connection with, relating to or arising out of any matter relating to SPAC or its Representatives which proceeding seeks, in whole or in part, relief against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) or the Public Shareholders, whether in the form of money damages or injunctive relief, SPAC and its Representatives, as applicable, shall be entitled to recover from the Company and its Affiliates, as applicable, the associated legal fees and costs in connection with any such Action, in the event SPAC or its Representatives, as applicable, prevails in such Action. This <u>Section ‎9.1</u> shall survive termination of this Agreement for any reason and continue indefinitely.

**RECITALS**

WHEREAS, as of the date hereof, each Insider is the holder of record and the "beneficial owner" (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act) of such number of shares of SPAC Ordinary Shares and SPAC Warrants as set forth opposite such Insider's name on **Schedule I** attached hereto (all such securities of such Insider are referred to herein as the "**Subject Securities**");

WHEREAS, subject to the terms and conditions of the Business Combination Agreement and in accordance with the DGCL, on the Closing Date, at the SPAC Merger Effective Time, SPAC Merger Sub will merge with and into the SPAC (the "**SPAC Merger**"), with the SPAC surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pubco, and each issued and outstanding share of SPAC Common Stock (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the shares of SPAC Common Stock issued in connection with the SPAC Class B Conversion) will be automatically converted, as of the SPAC Merger Effective Time, into one share of Pubco Class A Common Stock, and the SPAC Warrants will become the Pubco Warrants, in each case, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Business Combination Agreement; and

WHEREAS, as an inducement to the SPAC, Pubco and the Company to enter into the Business Combination Agreement and to consummate the Transactions as contemplated therein, the parties hereto desire to agree to certain matters as set forth herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree, as follows:

**Article I**

**Support Agreement; Covenants**

**Section 1.02 No Transfer**. From the date hereof until the Expiration Time, no Insider shall (except in each case, pursuant to the Transactions), without the prior written consent of the Company and Pubco, (i) sell, offer to sell, contract or agree to sell, assign, transfer (including by operation of law), hypothecate, pledge, distribute, grant any option to purchase or otherwise dispose of or agree to dispose of, directly or indirectly (other than pursuant to any non-redemption agreements that may be entered into by SPAC and such Insider in connection with the Transactions), file (or participate in the filing of) a registration statement with the SEC (other than the Registration Statement) or establish or increase a put equivalent position or liquidate or decrease a call equivalent position within the meaning of Section 16 of the Exchange Act, with respect to any Subject Securities of such Insider, (ii) deposit any Subject Securities of such Insider into a voting trust or enter into a voting agreement or arrangement or grant any proxy or power of attorney with respect thereto that is inconsistent with this Agreement, or (iii) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of any Subject Securities of such Insider, or (iv) publicly announce any intention to effect any transaction specified in clauses (i) through (iii), (clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), collectively, a "**Transfer**"), except, in each case, for any Transfers of Subject Securities of such Insider (a) to the SPAC's officers or directors, any affiliate or family member of any of the SPAC's officers or directors, any affiliate of the Sponsor or to any members of the Sponsor or any of their affiliates, or to such Insider's officers or directors, any affiliate or family member of any of such Insider's officers or directors; (b) in the case of an individual, by gift to a member of such individual's immediate family or to a trust, the beneficiary of which is a member of such individual's immediate family, an affiliate of such individual or to a charitable organization; (c) in the case of an individual, by virtue of laws of descent and distribution upon death of such individual; (d) in the case of an individual, pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order; (e) by private sales or transfers made in connection with any forward purchase agreement or similar arrangement or in connection with the consummation of the Transactions at prices no greater than the price at which the securities were originally purchased; (f) in case of an entity, to any Affiliate of such entity, any shareholder, partner or member of such entity or their Affiliates, any investment fund or other entity managing or managed by such entity or any Affiliate of such entity, or who shares a common investment advisor of such entity; (g) in the event of the SPAC's liquidation prior to the completion of an initial business combination; (h) by virtue of the laws of the State of Delaware or the Sponsor's limited liability company agreement upon dissolution of the Sponsor; or (i) in the event of the SPAC's liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange or other similar transaction which results in all of the SPAC's shareholders having the right to exchange their SPAC Common Stock for cash, securities or other property subsequent to the SPAC's completion of an initial business combination (each of the foregoing clauses (a) through (i), a "**Permitted Transfer**"); *provided*, *however*, that in the case of clauses (a) through (f) or (h), any Permitted Transfer shall be permitted only if, as a precondition to such Permitted Transfer, the transferee also agrees in a writing, reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the SPAC and the Company, to assume all of the obligations of the transferring Insider under, and be bound by all of the terms of, this Agreement; *provided*, *further*, that any Transfer permitted under this **Section 1.02** shall not relieve such Insider of its obligations under this Agreement. Any Transfer in violation of this **Section 1.02** with respect to the Subject Securities of an Insider shall be void ab initio and of no force or effect.

**Section 1.03 New Shares**. In the event that, during the period commencing on the date hereof and ending at the Expiration Time, (a) any SPAC Ordinary Shares are issued to an Insider after the date of this Agreement pursuant to any stock dividend, stock split, recapitalization, reclassification, combination or exchange of SPAC Ordinary Shares or otherwise, (b) such Insider purchases or otherwise acquires beneficial ownership of any SPAC Ordinary Shares or (c) such Insider acquires the right to vote or share in the voting of any SPAC Ordinary Shares (collectively the "**New Securities**"), then such New Securities acquired or purchased by such Insider shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement to the same extent as if they constituted the Subject Securities owned by the Insider as of the date hereof.

**Section 1.04 Voting Agreements**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) From the date hereof until the Expiration Time, at any meeting of the holders of SPAC Ordinary Shares, however called (or any adjournment or postponement thereof), or in any other circumstance in which the vote, consent or other approval of the holders of SPAC Ordinary Shares is sought, each Insider shall (x) appear at each such meeting, in person or by proxy, or otherwise cause all of its SPAC Ordinary Shares to be counted as present thereat for purposes of calculating a quorum and (y) vote (or cause to be voted), or execute and deliver a written consent (or cause a written consent to be executed and delivered) covering, all of its SPAC Ordinary Shares:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) in favor of the SPAC Shareholder Approval Matters;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) against any Alternative Transaction;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) against any business combination agreement or merger (other than the Business Combination Agreement and the Transactions), consolidation, combination, sale of substantial assets, reorganization, recapitalization, dissolution, liquidation or winding up of or by SPAC;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) against any proposal, action or agreement that would (A) materially impede, frustrate, prevent or nullify any provision of this Agreement, the Business Combination Agreement or the Transactions, (B) result in a breach in any respect of any covenant, representation, warranty or any other obligation or agreement of SPAC under the Business Combination Agreement or (C) result in any of the conditions set forth in Article VII of the Business Combination Agreement not being fulfilled.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) From the date hereof until the Expiration Time, each Insider hereby unconditionally and irrevocably agrees it, as applicable, shall:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) not commit or agree to take any action inconsistent with the foregoing covenants set forth in **Section 1.04(a)**; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) not redeem any SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares owned by the Insider in connection with the exercise of Redemption rights in connection with the Transactions or an Extension (if any).

No Insider shall commit or agree to take any action inconsistent with the foregoing. The obligations under this **Section 1.04** shall apply whether or not the SPAC Board or other governing body or any committee or subgroup thereof recommends any of the SPAC Shareholder Approval Matters and regardless of any SPAC Change in Recommendation.

**Section 1.05 Sponsor Earnout.** Effective as of the Closing, an aggregate of 500,000 shares of Pubco Class A Common Stock held by the Sponsor (which, for the avoidance of doubt, will not include any of the Sponsor Forfeited Shares or Discretionary Founder Shares (each as defined below)) (the "**Sponsor Earnout Shares**") will be subject to vesting and will vest upon the first to be satisfied of any of the following conditions:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) in the event that the sum of (x) the funds contained in the Trust Account as of immediately prior to the SPAC Merger Effective Time, *plus* (y) the aggregate cash proceeds received by SPAC or Pubco in respect of any Transaction Financing, *minus* (z) the aggregate amount of cash proceeds that will be required to satisfy the Redemption (and, for the avoidance of doubt, before the payment of any Expenses) equals or exceeds $200,000,000, all of the Sponsor Earnout Shares shall immediately vest;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) if, at any time during the period beginning on the Closing Date and ending on the fifth (5<sup>th</sup>) anniversary of the Closing (the "**Earnout Period**"), the closing price of the Pubco Class A Common Stock as reported on the Stock Exchange is greater than or equal to $15.00 (the "**Earnout Price**") for a period of at least 20 days (which need not be consecutive) out of 30 consecutive trading days, all of the Sponsor Earnout Shares shall immediately vest; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) in the event that there is a Sale of Pubco during the Earnout Period, and the holders of Pubco Common Stock receive a Sale Price that is greater than or equal to the Earnout Price, all of the Sponsor Earnout Shares shall immediately vest.

In the event that there is a Sale of Pubco during the Earnout Period, and immediately prior to (but subject to) the consummation of the Sale, the holders of Pubco Common Stock receive a Sale Price that is less than the Earnout Price, (i) if such Sale Price is payable in cash or in the form of privately held securities or other consideration other than publicly tradable securities, then all of the Sponsor Earnout Shares shall be deemed forfeited and cancelled for no consideration or (ii) if such price is payable in the form of publicly tradable securities, then Pubco shall cause the acquiror in such Sale to provide for the conversion of all of the Sponsor Earnout Shares into the kind and amount of such publicly tradable securities receivable upon such Sale of Pubco that the holders of Pubco Common Stock receive in such Sale and shall provide that the Earnout Shares, as so converted, shall remain subject to vesting as set forth in this **Section 1.05**, with an appropriate adjustment to the Earnout Price to provide to the Sponsor the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such event.

In the event Pubco shall at any time during the Earnout Period pay any dividend on Pubco Common Stock by the issuance of additional shares of Pubco Common Stock, or effect a subdivision, recapitalization, split, or combination, exchange or consolidation of the outstanding Pubco Comon Stock (by reclassification or otherwise) into a greater or lesser number of shares of Pubco Common Stock, then in each such case, in respect of the Sponsor Earnout Shares (i) the number of Sponsor Earnout Shares shall be adjusted by multiplying such amount by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of shares of Pubco Common Stock (including any other shares so reclassified as Pubco Common Stock) outstanding immediately after such event and the denominator of which is the number of shares of Pubco Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to such event, and (ii) the Earnout Price set forth in **Section 1.05(b)** above shall be appropriately adjusted to provide to the Sponsor the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such event.

Further, for so long as any Sponsor Earnout Share remains subject to the vesting conditions specified in this **Section 1.05**, (i) the holder thereof will not be entitled to exercise the voting rights carried by such Sponsor Earnout Share and (ii) the holder thereof will not be entitled to receive any dividends or other distributions in respect of such Sponsor Earnout Share; provided, that any dividends or distributions paid or made in respect of such Sponsor Earnout Share will be retained by Pubco and invested as and to the extent determined by Pubco, and such dividends or distributions (together with any earnings thereon) will be paid or made to the holder of such Sponsor Earnout Share only when and to the extent that such Sponsor Earnout Share vests in accordance with this **Section 1.05**.

If, upon the expiration of the Earnout Period, the vesting of the Sponsor Earnout Shares has not occurred in accordance with this **Section 1.05**, then the Sponsor Earnout Shares will be forfeited to Pubco for no consideration, and no Person (other than Pubco) will have any further right with respect thereto.

Sponsor agrees that it shall not Transfer any Sponsor Earnout Shares, until after such shares vest, if at all, in accordance with this **Section 1.05**. Sponsor acknowledges and agrees that during the Earnout Period, until such Sponsor Earnout Shares become fully vested in accordance with **Section 1.05**, Pubco shall issue stop-transfer instructions to its transfer agent with respect to the applicable Sponsor Earnout Shares and Pubco shall not be required to (a) transfer on its books any Sponsor Earnout Shares that have been sold or otherwise transferred in violation of this Agreement or (b) treat as owner of such shares, or to accord the right to vote or pay dividends, to any purchaser or other transferee to whom such shares have been so transferred.

As used herein:

"**Sale**" means (a) any transaction or series of related transactions (whether by merger, consolidation, tender offer, exchange offer, stock transfer or otherwise) that (A) results in any Person acquiring beneficial ownership, directly or indirectly, of equity securities of Pubco that represent more than 50% of (i) the issued and outstanding Pubco Common Stock or the equity interests of the Company Surviving Subsidiary or (B) in which holders of equity securities of Pubco own less than 50% of the surviving entities' (or direct or indirect parent of surviving entities') equity securities immediately after the transaction, or (ii) the combined voting power of the then-outstanding voting equity securities of Pubco, or (b) any sale, transfer or other disposition to a Person of all or substantially all of the assets (by book value), of Pubco and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis based on the most recent annual audited financial statements of Pubco (other than licensing, partnering or similar transactions in the ordinary course of business).

"**Sale Price**" means the price per share of Pubco Common Stock paid or payable to the holders of outstanding Pubco Common Stock in a Sale, inclusive of the net present value of any contingent deferred purchase price or earnouts; provided that, if and to the extent such price is payable in whole or in part in the form of consideration other than cash, the price for such non-cash consideration shall be with respect to any securities, (i) pursuant to the methodology of valuation of securities in the definitive agreement for the Sale, (ii) if such methodology is not available, the volume weighted average of the closing prices of the sales of such securities on all securities exchanges on which such securities are then listed over a period of at least 20 days (which days need not be consecutive) out of 30 consecutive trading days ending on the trading day immediately prior to the date of determination, or (iii) in the absence of (i) and if the information contemplated by the preceding clause (ii) is not practically available, then the fair value of such securities as of the date of valuation as determined by an independent, nationally recognized investment banking firm selected by the board of directors of Pubco, on the basis of an orderly sale to a willing, unaffiliated buyer in an arm's-length transaction, taking into account all factors determinative of value as the investment banking firm determines relevant (and giving effect to any transfer Taxes payable in connection with such sale).

**Section 1.06 Sponsor Share Forfeiture**. Effective as of immediately prior to the Conversion and conditioned upon the satisfaction or waiver of the closing conditions set forth in Article VII of the Business Combination Agreement (other than such conditions that, by their nature, are to be satisfied at the closing of the Transactions), (a) the Sponsor shall forfeit and surrender to the SPAC an aggregate of 2,750,000 SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares held by the Sponsor ("**Sponsor Forfeited Shares**"), (b) the Sponsor may, in its discretion, transfer to third parties up to an additional 500,000 SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares held by the Sponsor to incentivize non-redemptions or investments into the SPAC or PubCo or otherwise to support the Transactions (the "**Discretionary Founder Shares**"), provided that any portion of the Discretionary Founder Shares that are not so transferred shall be forfeited by the Sponsor and surrendered to the SPAC, and (c) the Sponsor shall not have any further rights with respect to such Sponsor Forfeited Shares and Discretionary Founder Shares. SPAC is authorized to deliver any notices required to be delivered to its transfer agent and take such further actions in order to accept, terminate and/or cancel any Sponsor Forfeited Shares and Discretionary Founder Shares that have been forfeited as provided in this **Section 1.06**. The foregoing restrictions shall apply only to the Sponsor and not to any other Insider.

**Section 1.07 Insider Letter.** From the date hereof until the Expiration Time, for the benefit of Pubco, (a) each Insider agrees that it shall fully comply with, and perform all of its obligations, covenants and agreements set forth in, the Insider Letter (as defined below), (b) SPAC agrees to enforce the Insider Letter in accordance with its terms and conditions, and (c) each Insider and SPAC agree not to amend, modify or waive any provision of the Insider Letter without the prior written consent of Pubco (not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned).

Each Insider agrees not to commence, join in, facilitate, assist or encourage, and agrees to take all actions necessary to opt out of any class in any class action with respect to, any claim, derivative or otherwise, against SPAC, Pubco, the Merger Subs, the Company or any of their respective successors or officers or directors (a) challenging the validity of, or seeking to enjoin the operation of, any provision of this Agreement, or (b) alleging a breach of any fiduciary duty of any person in connection with the evaluation, negotiation or entry into the Business Combination Agreement. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, nothing in this Agreement shall limit or restrict the ability of such Insider to enforce its rights under the Business Combination Agreement, this Agreement or any other Ancillary Documents to which such Insider is a party or has third-party beneficiary rights with respect to or seek any other remedies with respect to any breach of the Business Combination Agreement, this Agreement or such other Ancillary Documents by any other party hereto or thereto, including by commencing any Action in connection therewith.

In either case, the Sponsor Investment shall be conditioned on all of the following, in addition to any conditions set forth in the definitive agreement between the parties with respect to the Sponsor Investment, which conditions may be waived by the Sponsor (or its affiliate or designee, as applicable) in its sole discretion: (i) the purchase price of the Sponsor Investment is equal to the lowest purchase price paid by any other investor in any Transaction Financing, and the Sponsor Investment is made upon such other terms that are no less favorable to the Sponsor (or such affiliate or designee) than the terms offered to any other investor in any Transaction Financing, including without limitation the transfer of Discretionary Founder Shares pursuant to **Section 1.06** above, (ii) Closing SPAC Cash shall be at least $50,000,000 (including the gross proceeds of the Sponsor Investment), (iii) the Pubco Common Stock shall have been approved for listing on the Stock Exchange, subject only to official notice of issuance, (iv) no governmental authority of competent jurisdiction shall have enacted, issued, promulgated, enforced or entered any judgment, order, law, rule or regulation (whether temporary, preliminary or permanent) which is then in effect and has the effect of making the consummation of the Sponsor Investment illegal or otherwise restraining, enjoining, or prohibiting consummation of the Sponsor Investment, and no such governmental authority shall have instituted or threatened in writing a proceeding seeking to impose any such restraint or prohibition, (v) except to the extent consented to in writing by Sponsor, the Business Combination Agreement shall not have been amended, modified, or supplemented, and no condition shall have been waived thereunder, in each case, in a manner that would reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect the economic benefits that Sponsor, or its affiliate or designee, as applicable, would reasonably expect to receive in connection with the Sponsor Investment in a manner that is disproportionate to the economic benefits received by other investors in the Transaction Financing, and (vi) there has not occurred any Material Adverse Effect with respect to the Company that is continuing.

**Section 3.03 Consent to Jurisdiction and Service of Process; Waiver of Jury Trial**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Each party hereto submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of first, the New York Supreme Court, Commercial Division, located in the Borough of Manhattan in the City of New York, in the State of New York or if such court declines jurisdiction, then to any court of the State of New York or the Federal District Court for the Southern District of New York, in any Proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, agrees that all claims in respect of the Proceeding shall be heard and determined in any such court and agrees not to bring any Proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement in any other courts. Nothing in this **Section 3.03**, however, shall affect the right of any party to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by Law or at equity. Each party hereto agrees that a final judgment in any Proceeding so brought shall be conclusive and may be enforced by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Law or at equity.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) **WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY**.

This Agreement and all of the provisions hereof will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective heirs, successors and permitted assigns; *provided*, *however*, that, except in connection with a Permitted Transfer, no party hereto will assign its rights or delegate any or all of its obligations under this Agreement, including by merger, consolidation, operation of law or otherwise, without the express prior written consent of the other parties hereto. Any attempted assignment in violation of this **Section 3.04** shall be void, in addition to constituting a material breach of this Agreement.

**Section 3.05 Specific Performance**. The parties hereto hereby acknowledge and agree that irreparable injury for which monetary damages (even if available) would not be an adequate remedy would occur if any party hereto does not perform any provision of this Agreement in accordance with its specified terms or otherwise breaches such provisions. Accordingly, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that, prior to a valid termination, to prevent breaches or threatened breaches by the parties hereto of any of their respective covenants or obligations set forth in this Agreement, including its failure to take all actions required under the express terms of this Agreement to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, and that prior to a valid termination of this Agreement, the parties hereto shall be entitled to specific performance of such agreements and covenants in such event and other equitable relief to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement, in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity. Each of the parties hereto agrees that it will not oppose the granting of any such injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief on the basis that any other party hereto has an adequate remedy at Law or that any award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at Law or in equity. Each party hereto hereby waives any requirement to provide any bond or other security in connection with such order or injunction.

**Section 3.06 Amendments, Waivers and Remedies**. This Agreement may not be modified or amended except by an instrument or instruments in writing and mutually signed by each of the parties hereto. Each party hereto may, only by an instrument in writing, waive compliance by any other party hereto with any term or provision of this Agreement on the part of such other party hereto to be performed or complied with. The waiver by a party hereto of a breach of any term or provision of this Agreement by another party hereto shall not be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach. Neither any failure or delay in exercising any right or remedy hereunder or in requiring satisfaction of any condition herein nor any course of dealing shall constitute a waiver of or prevent any party hereto from enforcing any right or remedy or from requiring satisfaction of any condition. No notice to or demand on a party hereto waives or otherwise affects any obligation of that party hereto or impairs any right of the party hereto giving such notice or making such demand, including any right to take any action without notice or demand not otherwise required by this Agreement. No exercise of any right or remedy with respect to a breach of this Agreement shall preclude exercise of any other right or remedy, as appropriate to make the aggrieved party whole with respect to such breach, or subsequent exercise of any right or remedy with respect to any other breach. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, any and all remedies provided herein will be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred hereby, or by law or equity upon any party hereto, and the exercise by a party hereto of any one remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other remedy. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no party hereto shall seek, nor shall any party hereto be liable for, punitive or exemplary damages under any tort, contract, equity or other legal theory with respect to any breach (or alleged breach) of this Agreement or any provision hereof or any matter otherwise relating hereto or arising in connection herewith.

**Section 3.07 Severability**. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or other authority to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby are not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party hereto. Upon such a determination, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties hereto as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

**Section 3.08 Notices**.

any Lock-up Securityholder which provides any modification, amendment, reduction or elimination of the Shares Lock-up Period or Warrants
Lock-up Period to such Lock-up Securityholder, then such modification, amendment, reduction or elimination of the Shares Lock-up Period
or Warrants Lock-up Period shall automatically apply to each other Lock-up Securityholder with respect to such Lock-Up Shares or Lock-Up
Warrants beneficially owned by such Lock-up Securityholder equally and on a pro-rata basis.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7. This Agreement, together with the Business Combination Agreement to the extent referred to herein, constitutes
the entire agreement and understanding of the parties hereto in respect of the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior understandings,
agreements or representations by or among the parties hereto, written or oral, to the extent they relate in any way to the subject matter
hereof or the transactions contemplated hereby; <u>provided</u>, that, for the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing shall not affect the
rights and obligations of the parties under the Business Combination Agreement, Ancillary Documents, Amended Pubco Charter, Amended Pubco
Bylaws or any documents related thereto or referred to therein. This Agreement may not be changed, amended, modified or waived (other
than to correct a typographical error) as to any particular provision, except by a written instrument executed by each of the undersigned
(i) Lock-up Securityholders and (ii) Pubco.

between SPAC, Sponsor, and the other parties thereto dated June 25, 2024 ()"**Insider Letter** "), and agree that the
transfer restrictions set forth in this Agreement expressly supersede the transfer restrictions set forth in the Insider Letter.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9. No party hereto may assign either this Agreement or any of its rights, interests or obligations hereunder
without the prior written consent of the other party. Any purported assignment in violation of this **Section 9** shall be void
and ineffectual and shall not operate to transfer or assign any interest or title to the purported assignee. This Agreement shall be binding
on each Lock-up Securityholder and each of its respective successors, heirs and assigns and permitted transferees.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10. The Law of the State of New York shall govern (a) all claims or matters related to or arising from
this Agreement (including any tort or non-contractual claims) and (b) any questions concerning the construction, interpretation,
validity and enforceability of this Agreement, and the performance of the obligations imposed by this Agreement, in each case without
giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law rules or provisions (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdiction)
that would cause the application of the Law of any jurisdiction other than the State of New York.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11. Each party hereto submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of first, the New York Supreme Court, Commercial
Division, located in the Borough of Manhattan in the City of New York, in the State of New York or if such court declines jurisdiction,
then to any court of the State of New York or the Federal District Court for the Southern District of New York, in any Proceeding arising
out of or relating to this Agreement, agrees that all claims in respect of the Proceeding shall be heard and determined in any such court
and agrees not to bring any Proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement in any other courts. Nothing in this **Section 11**,
however, shall affect the right of any party to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by Law or at equity. Each party hereto
agrees that a final judgment in any Proceeding so brought shall be conclusive and may be enforced by suit on the judgment or in any other
manner provided by Law or at equity. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY PROCEEDING BROUGHT
TO RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE BETWEEN OR AMONG ANY OF THE PARTIES (WHETHER ARISING IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF, CONNECTED
WITH, RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE TRANSACTIONS OR THE RELATIONSHIPS ESTABLISHED AMONG THE PARTIES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT.
EACH PARTY FURTHER WARRANTS AND REPRESENTS THAT SUCH PARTY HAS REVIEWED THIS WAIVER WITH ITS LEGAL COUNSEL, AND THAT SUCH PARTY KNOWINGLY
AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVES ITS JURY TRIAL RIGHTS FOLLOWING CONSULTATION WITH LEGAL COUNSEL.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12. The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event any provision of this Agreement
was not performed in accordance with the terms hereof and that the parties shall be entitled to specific performance of the terms hereof,
in addition to any other remedy at law or in equity without the necessity of proving the inadequacy of money damages as a remedy and without
bond or other security being required, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity. Each
of the parties hereto hereby further acknowledges that the existence of any other remedy contemplated by this Agreement does not diminish
the availability of specific performance of the obligations hereunder or any other injunctive relief. It is accordingly agreed that the
parties hereto shall be entitled to seek and obtain an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement
and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement in the New York Supreme Court, Commercial Division, located in
the Borough of Manhattan in the City of New York, in the State of New York, this being in addition to any other remedy to which such party
is entitled at law or in equity. Each party hereto hereby further agrees that in the event of any action by any other party for specific
performance or injunctive relief, it will not assert that a remedy at law or other remedy would be adequate or that specific performance
or injunctive relief in respect of such breach or violation should not be available on the grounds that money damages are adequate or
any other grounds.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;13. This Agreement shall terminate upon the expiration of the Shares Lock-up Period.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14. Nothing contained in this Agreement or in any instrument or document executed by any party in connection
with the transactions contemplated hereby shall create any rights in, or be deemed to have been executed for the benefit of, any person
or entity that is not a party hereto or thereto or a successor or permitted assign of such a party.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;15. In case any provision in this Agreement shall be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in a court of
competent jurisdiction, such provision shall be modified or deleted, as to the jurisdiction involved, only to the extent necessary to
render the same valid, legal and enforceable, and the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof shall not
in any way be affected or impaired thereby nor shall the validity, legality or enforceability of such provision be affected thereby in
any other jurisdiction. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the
parties will substitute for any invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision a suitable and equitable provision that carries out, so far
as may be valid, legal and enforceable, the intent and purpose of such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;16. This Agreement may be executed and delivered (including by electronic signature or by email in portable
document form) in two 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.

**2.2.1 Piggyback Rights.** If, at any time on or after the Closing Date, Pubco proposes to file a Registration Statement under the Securities Act with respect to an offering of equity securities, or securities or other obligations exercisable or exchangeable for, or convertible into equity securities, for its own account or for the account of shareholders of Pubco, other than a Registration Statement (i) filed in connection with any employee share option or other benefit plan, (ii) for an exchange offer or offering of securities solely to Pubco's existing shareholders, (iii) for an offering of debt that is convertible into equity securities of Pubco, (iv) for an equity line of credit or an at-the-market offering of securities, (v) for a Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering initiated at the request of a Holder, or (vi) for a dividend reinvestment plan, then Pubco shall give written notice of such proposed filing to all of the Holders of Registrable Securities as soon as practicable but not less than ten (10) days before the anticipated filing date of such Registration Statement, or, if applicable, the "red herring" prospectus or prospectus supplement used for marketing such offering, which notice shall (A) describe the amount and type of securities to be included in such offering, the intended method(s) of distribution, and the name of the proposed managing Underwriter or Underwriters, if any, in such offering, and (B) offer to all of the Holders of Registrable Securities the opportunity to include in such offering such number of Registrable Securities as such Holders may request in writing within five (5) days after receipt of such written notice (such Registration a **"Piggyback Registration"**). Pubco shall, in good faith, cause such Registrable Securities to be included in such Piggyback Registration and shall use its best efforts to cause the managing Underwriter or Underwriters of a proposed Underwritten Offering to permit the Registrable Securities requested by the Holders pursuant to this subsection 2.2.1 to be included in a Piggyback Registration on the same terms and conditions as any similar securities of Pubco included in such Registration and to permit the sale or other disposition of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method(s) of distribution thereof. All such Holders proposing to distribute their Registrable Securities through an Underwritten Offering under this subsection 2.2.1 shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the Underwriter(s) selected for such Underwritten Offering by Pubco.

**2.2.2 Reduction of Piggyback Registration.** If the managing Underwriter or Underwriters in an Underwritten Registration that is to be a Piggyback Registration, in good faith, advises Pubco and the Holders of Registrable Securities participating in the Piggyback Registration in writing that the dollar amount or number of the shares of Pubco Common Stock or other equity securities that Pubco desires to sell, taken together with (i) the shares of Pubco Common Stock or other equity securities, if any, as to which Registration has been demanded pursuant to separate written contractual arrangements with persons or entities other than the Holders of Registrable Securities hereunder, (ii) the Registrable Securities as to which registration has been requested pursuant to Section 2.2 hereof, and (iii) the shares of Pubco Common Stock or other equity securities, if any, as to which Registration has been requested pursuant to separate written contractual piggy-back registration rights of other stockholders of Pubco, exceeds the maximum dollar amount or maximum number of equity securities that can be sold in the Underwritten Registration without adversely affecting the proposed offering price, the timing, the distribution method, or the probability of success of such offering (such maximum dollar amount or maximum number of such securities, as applicable, the "**Maximum Number of Securities**"), then:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) If the Registration is undertaken for Pubco's account, Pubco shall include in any such Registration (A) first, the shares of Pubco Common Stock or other equity securities that Pubco desires to sell, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; (B) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clause (A), the Registrable Securities of Holders exercising their rights to register their Registrable Securities pursuant to subsection 2.2.1 hereof (pro rata based on the respective number of Registrable Securities that such Holder has requested be included in such Registration), which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; and (C) third, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (A) and (B), the shares of Pubco Common Stock or other equity securities, if any, as to which Registration has been requested pursuant to written contractual piggy-back registration rights of other shareholders of Pubco, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) If the Registration is pursuant to a request by persons or entities other than the Holders of Registrable Securities, then Pubco shall include in any such Registration (A) first, the shares of Pubco Common Stock or other equity securities, if any, of such requesting persons or entities, other than the Holders of Registrable Securities, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; (B) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clause (A), the Registrable Securities of Holders exercising their rights to register their Registrable Securities pursuant to subsection 2.2.1, pro rata based on the respective number of Registrable Securities that each Holder has requested be included in such Registration and the aggregate number of Registrable Securities that the Holders have requested to be included in such Registration, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; (C) third, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (A) and (B), the shares of Pubco Common Stock or other equity securities that Pubco desires to sell, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; and (D) fourth, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (A), (B) and (C), the shares of Pubco Common Stock or other equity securities for the account of other persons or entities that Pubco is obligated to register pursuant to separate written contractual arrangements with such persons or entities, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) If the Registration is pursuant to a request by Demanding Holder(s) pursuant to Section 2.3 hereof, then Pubco shall include in any such Registration the Pubco Common Stock or other equity securities (A) first, the shares of Pubco Common Stock or other equity securities, if any, of the Demanding Holder(s), pro rata based on the respective number of Registrable Securities that each Demanding Holder has requested be included in such Registration and the aggregate number of Registrable Securities that the Demanding Holders have requested to be included in such Registration, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; (B) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clause (A), the shares of Pubco Common Stock or other equity securities that Pubco desires to sell, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; and (C) third, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (A) and (B), the shares of Pubco Common Stock or other equity securities for the account of other persons or entities that Pubco is obligated to register pursuant to separate written contractual arrangements with such persons or entities, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities.

**2.2.3 Piggyback Registration Withdrawal.** Any Holder of Registrable Securities shall have the right to withdraw from a Piggyback Registration for any or no reason whatsoever upon written notification (a "**Withdrawal Notice**") to Pubco and the Underwriter or Underwriters (if any) of his, her or its intention to withdraw from such Piggyback Registration prior to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement filed with the Commission with respect to such Piggyback Registration or, in the case of a Piggyback Registration pursuant to a shelf registration statement, the filing of the applicable "red herring" prospectus or prospectus supplement with respect to such Piggyback Registration used for marketing such transaction. Pubco (whether on its own good faith determination or as the result of a request for withdrawal by persons pursuant to separate written contractual obligations) may withdraw a Registration Statement filed with the Commission in connection with a Piggyback Registration at any time prior to the effectiveness of such Registration Statement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Pubco shall be responsible for the Registration Expenses incurred in connection with the Piggyback Registration prior to its withdrawal under this subsection 2.2.3.

**2.3 Registrations on Form S-3.** The Holders of Registrable Securities, or any of them (any such holder, a "**Demanding Holder**") may at any time, and from time to time, request in writing that Pubco, pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act (or any successor rule promulgated thereafter by the Commission), register the resale of any or all of their Registrable Securities on Form S-3 or any similar short form registration statement that may be available at such time (**"Form S-3"**); provided, however, that Pubco shall only be obligated to effect such request through an Underwritten Offering if such offering shall include Registrable Securities with a total offering price reasonably expected to exceed, in the aggregate, $20,000,000. The (i) Sponsor (including a majority-in-interest of the Sponsor Members) may demand not more than one Underwritten Offering pursuant to this Section 2.3, and (ii) the Company Founders may demand not more than three Underwritten Offerings pursuant to this Section 2.3. Within five (5) days of Pubco's receipt of a written request from a Holder or Holders of Registrable Securities for a Registration on Form S-3, Pubco shall promptly give written notice of the proposed Registration on Form S-3 to all other Holders of Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 2.2.1. As soon as practicable thereafter, but not more than twelve (12) days after Pubco's initial receipt of such written request for a Registration on Form S-3, Pubco shall register all or such portion of such Holder's Registrable Securities as are specified in such written request, together with all or such portion of Registrable Securities of any other Holder or Holders joining in such request as are specified in the written notification given by such Holder or Holders; provided, however, that Pubco shall not be obligated to effect any such Registration pursuant to Section 2.3 hereof if (i) a Form S-3 is not available for such offering; or (ii) the Holders of Registrable Securities, together with the Holders of any other equity securities of Pubco entitled to inclusion in such Registration, propose to sell the Registrable Securities and such other equity securities (if any) at any aggregate price to the public of less than $10,000,000. If such registration is an Underwritten Offering, then (x) the initial Demanding Holder shall have the right to select the Underwriters for such offering, subject to Pubco's prior approval (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed) and (y) prior to the filing of the applicable "red herring" prospectus or prospectus supplement used for marketing such Underwritten Offering, a majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders initiating the Underwritten Offering will have the right to withdraw from such Underwritten offering for any reason or no reason whatsoever by sending a Withdrawal Notice to Pubco and the Underwriter(s), and Pubco shall promptly forward such notice to each other Demanding Holder, and the remaining Demanding Holders, if any, may elect within five (5) days of notice thereof to have Pubco continue an Underwritten Offering so long as such offering shall continue to include Registrable Securities with a total offering price reasonably expected to exceed, in the aggregate, $20,000,000.

**2.4 Block Trades; Other Coordinated Offerings.**

**2.4.1 Demand Rights for Block Trades and Other Coordinated Offerings.** At any time and from time, if a Demanding Holder wishes to engage in (a) an underwritten registered offering not involving a "roadshow", an offer commonly known as a "block trade" (a "**Block Trade**"), or (b) an "at the market" or similar registered offering through a broker, sales agent or distribution agent, whether as agent or principal (an "**Other Coordinated Offering**"), in each case, (x) with a total offering price reasonably expected to exceed $10 million in the aggregate or (y) with respect to all remaining Registrable Securities held by the Demanding Holder, then such Demanding Holder shall notify Pubco of the Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering at least five (5) business days prior to the day such offering is to commence and Pubco shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to facilitate such Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering; <u>provided</u> that the Demanding Holders representing a majority of the Registrable Securities wishing to engage in the Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering shall use commercially reasonable efforts to work with Pubco and any Underwriters, brokers, sales agents or placement agents prior to making such request in order to facilitate preparation of any Registration Statement, prospectus and other offering documentation related to the Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering. The Demanding Holder in a Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering shall have the right to select the Underwriters and any brokers, sales agents or placement agents (if any) for such Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering.

**2.4.2 Withdrawal of Block Trades and Other Coordinated Offerings.** Prior to the filing of the applicable "red herring" prospectus or prospectus supplement used in connection with a Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering, a majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders initiating such Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering shall have the right to submit a Withdrawal Notice to Pubco, the Underwriter(s) (if any) and any brokers, sales agents or placement agents (if any) of their intention to withdraw from such Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Pubco shall be responsible for the Registration Expenses incurred in connection with a Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering prior to its withdrawal.

**Article III**

**PUBCO PROCEDURES**

**3.1 General Procedures.** If at any time on or after the date hereof Pubco is required to effect the Registration of Registrable Securities, Pubco shall use its best efforts to effect such Registration to permit the sale of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended plan of distribution thereof, and pursuant thereto Pubco shall, as expeditiously as possible:

**3.1.9** notify the Holders at any time when a Prospectus relating to such Registration Statement is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, of the happening of any event as a result of which the Prospectus included in such Registration Statement, as then in effect, includes a Misstatement, and then to correct such Misstatement as set forth in Section 3.4 hereof;

**3.1.10** in the event of an Underwritten Offering, a Block Trade, an Other Coordinated Offering, or sale by a broker, placement agent or sales agent pursuant to such Registration, in each of the following cases to the extent customary for a transaction of its type, permit a representative of the Holders (such representative to be selected by a majority of the participating Holders), the Underwriters, if any, any other financial institution facilitating such Underwritten Offering, Block Trade, Other Coordinated Offering, or other sale, and any attorney or accountant retained by such Holders, Underwriters or financial institutions, to participate, at each such person's own expense, in the preparation of the Registration Statement, and cause Pubco's officers, directors and employees to supply all information reasonably requested by any such representative, Underwriter, financial institution, attorney or accountant in connection with the Registration; provided, however, that such representatives, Underwriters or financial institutions enter into a confidentiality agreement, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Pubco, prior to the release or disclosure of any such information; and provided further, Pubco may not include the name of any Holder, Underwriter or other financial institution or any information regarding any Holder or Underwriter in any Registration Statement or Prospectus, any amendment or supplement to such Registration Statement or Prospectus, any document that is to be incorporated by reference into such Registration Statement or Prospectus, or any response to any comment letter, without the prior written consent of such Holder, Underwriter, or financial institution, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, and providing each such Holder, Underwriter or financial institution a reasonable amount of time to review and comment on such applicable document, which comments Pubco shall include unless contrary to applicable law;

**3.1.11** obtain a "cold comfort" letter (including a bring-down letter dated as of the date the Registrable Securities are delivered for sale pursuant to such Registration) from Pubco's independent registered public accountants in the event of an Underwritten Registration or a Block Trade pursuant to such Registration (subject to such placement agent or sales agent providing such certification or representation reasonably requested by Pubco's independent registered public accountants and Pubco's counsel), in customary form and covering such matters of the type customarily covered by "cold comfort" letters as the managing Underwriter or other financial institution may reasonably request, and reasonably satisfactory to a majority-in-interest of the participating Holders;

**3.1.12** in the event of an Underwritten Offering or a Block Trade pursuant to such Registration, on the date the Registrable Securities are delivered for sale pursuant to such Registration, to the extent customary for a transaction of its type, obtain an opinion and negative assurance letter, dated such date, of counsel representing Pubco for the purposes of such Registration, addressed to the Holders, the placement agent or sales agent, if any, and the Underwriters, if any, covering such legal matters with respect to the Registration in respect of which such opinion is being given as the Holders, placement agent, sales agent, or Underwriters may reasonably request and as are customarily included in such opinions and negative assurance letters, and reasonably satisfactory to a majority in interest of the participating Holders;

**3.1.13** in the event of any Underwritten Offering or a Block Trade, enter into and perform its obligations under an underwriting or other purchase or sales agreement, in usual and customary form, with the managing Underwriter or other financial institution of such offering or sale;

**3.1.14** make available to its security holders, as soon as reasonably practicable, an earnings statement covering the period of at least twelve (12) months beginning with the first day of Pubco's first full calendar quarter after the effective date of the Registration Statement which satisfies the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and Rule 158 thereunder (or any successor rule promulgated thereafter by the Commission);

**3.1.15** if the Registration involves the Registration of Registrable Securities involving gross proceeds in excess of $25,000,000, use its reasonable efforts to make available senior executives of Pubco to participate in customary "road show" presentations that may be reasonably requested by the Underwriters in any Underwritten Offering; and

**3.1.16** otherwise, in good faith, cooperate reasonably with, and take such customary actions as may reasonably be requested by the Holders, in connection with such Registration.

**3.2 Registration Expenses.** The Registration Expenses of all Registrations shall be borne by Pubco. It is acknowledged by the Holders that the Holders shall bear all incremental selling expenses relating to the sale of Registrable Securities, such as Underwriters' commissions and discounts, brokerage fees, Underwriters' marketing costs and, other than as set forth in the definition of "Registration Expenses," all fees and expenses of any legal counsel representing the Holders.

**3.3 Requirements for Participation in Underwritten Offerings.** No person may participate in any Underwritten Offering for equity securities of Pubco pursuant to a Registration initiated by Pubco hereunder unless such person (i) agrees to sell such person's securities on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by Pubco and (ii) completes and executes all customary questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, lock-up agreements, underwriting agreements and other customary documents as may be reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements; provided, that that such Holder shall only be subject to the restrictions set forth in any such lock-up agreements if the directors and officers of Pubco are subject to a lock-up obligation to the Underwriters managing the offering and the length of such lock-up for such Holder shall be no longer than the shortest lock-up of any such directors and officers; provided, further, that if Pubco or the Underwriters managing the offering waive or shorten the lock-up period for any of Pubco's officers, directors or stockholders, then (i) all Holders subject to such lock-up shall receive notice of such waiver or modification no later than two (2) business days following such waiver or modification, and (ii) such lock-up will be similarly waived pro rata or shortened for each such Holder. For the avoidance of doubt, the exclusion of a Holder's Registrable Securities as a result of this <u>Section 3.3</u> shall not affect the registration of the other Registrable Securities to be included in such Registration.

**3.4 Suspension of Sales; Adverse Disclosure.** Upon receipt of written notice from Pubco that a Registration Statement or Prospectus contains a Misstatement, each of the Holders shall forthwith discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities until he, she or it has received copies of a supplemented or amended Prospectus correcting the Misstatement (it being understood that Pubco hereby covenants to prepare and file such supplement or amendment as soon as practicable after the time of such notice), or until he, she or it is advised in writing by Pubco that the use of the Prospectus may be resumed. If the filing, initial effectiveness or continued use of a Registration Statement in respect of any Registration at any time would require Pubco to make an Adverse Disclosure or would require the inclusion in such Registration Statement of financial statements that are unavailable to Pubco for reasons beyond Pubco's control, Pubco may, upon giving prompt written notice of such action to the Holders (which notice shall not specify the nature of the event giving rise to such delay or suspension), delay the filing or initial effectiveness of, or suspend use of, such Registration Statement for the shortest period of time, but in no event more than thirty (30) days, determined in good faith by Pubco to be necessary for such purpose. In the event Pubco exercises its rights under the preceding sentence, the Holders agree to suspend, immediately upon their receipt of the notice referred to above, their use of the Prospectus relating to any Registration in connection with any sale or offer to sell Registrable Securities until such Holder receives written notice from Pubco that such sales or offers of Registrable Securities may be resumed. Pubco shall immediately notify the Holders of the expiration of any period during which it exercised its rights under this Section 3.4.

**3.5 Reporting Obligations.** As long as any Holder shall own Registrable Securities, Pubco, at all times while it shall be a reporting company under the Exchange Act, covenants to file timely (or obtain extensions in respect thereof and file within the applicable grace period) all reports required to be filed by Pubco after the date hereof pursuant to Sections 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act and to promptly furnish the Holders with true and complete copies of all such filings. Pubco further covenants that it shall take such further action as any Holder may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such Holder to sell shares of Pubco Common Stock held by such Holder without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act (or any successor rule promulgated thereafter by the Commission), including providing any legal opinions. Upon the request of any Holder, Pubco shall deliver to such Holder a written certification of a duly authorized officer as to whether it has complied with such requirements.

**3.6 Restrictive Legend Removal.**

**3.6.1** At any time and from time to time in connection with a bona-fide sale of Registrable Securities effected in compliance with the requirements of Rule 144 under the Securities Act or through any broker-dealer sale transactions described in the plan of distribution set forth within any prospectus and pursuant to the Registration Statement of which such prospectus forms a part, Pubco shall use its commercially reasonable efforts, subject to the receipt of customary documentation required from the holder of the applicable Registrable Securities and broker in connection therewith and compliance with applicable laws, (i) promptly instruct its transfer agent to remove any restrictive legends applicable to the Registrable Securities being sold and (ii) cause its legal counsel to deliver the necessary legal opinions, if any, to the transfer agent in connection with the instruction under subclause (i). Pubco shall be responsible for the fees of its transfer agent, its legal counsel (including for purposes of giving the opinion referenced herein) and all DTC fees associated with such issuance and the Holder shall be responsible for its fees or costs associated with such removal of such restrictive legends (including its legal fees or costs of its legal counsel).

**3.6.2** With a view to making available to each Holder of Registrable Securities the benefits of Rule 144 that permit the Holder to sell securities of Pubco to the public without registration, Pubco agrees, for so long as any Holder holds Registrable Securities, to: (a) use commercially reasonable efforts to make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144; and (b) use commercially reasonable efforts to file with the Commission in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of Pubco under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act so long as Pubco remains subject to such requirements and the filing of such reports and other documents as may be required pursuant to the applicable provisions of Rule 144.

**Article IV**

**INDEMNIFICATION AND CONTRIBUTION**

**4.1 Indemnification.**

**4.1.1** Pubco agrees to indemnify, to the extent permitted by law, each Holder of Registrable Securities, its officers and directors and each person who controls such Holder (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable and documented outside attorneys' fees) caused by any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in or incorporated by reference in any Registration Statement, Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading (in the case of a Prospectus, in light of the circumstances in which they were made), except insofar as the same are caused by or contained in any information furnished in writing to Pubco by such Holder expressly for use therein. Pubco shall indemnify the Underwriters, their officers and directors and each person who controls such Underwriters (within the meaning of the Securities Act) to the same extent as provided in the foregoing with respect to the indemnification of the Holder.

**4.1.2** In connection with any Registration Statement in which a Holder of Registrable Securities is participating, such Holder shall furnish to Pubco in writing such information and affidavits as Pubco reasonably requests for use in connection with any such Registration Statement or Prospectus and, to the extent permitted by law, shall indemnify Pubco, its directors and officers and agents and each person who controls Pubco (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses (including without limitation reasonable and documented outside attorneys' fees) resulting from any untrue statement of material fact contained in or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading (in the case of a Prospectus, in light of the circumstances in which they were made), but only to the extent that such untrue statement or omission is contained in (or not contained in, in the case of an omission) any information or affidavit so furnished in writing by such Holder expressly for use therein; provided, however, that the obligation to indemnify shall be several, not joint and several, among such Holders of Registrable Securities, and the liability of each such Holder of Registrable Securities shall be in proportion to and limited to the net proceeds received by such Holder from the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement. The Holders of Registrable Securities shall indemnify the Underwriters, their officers, directors and each person who controls such Underwriters (within the meaning of the Securities Act) to the same extent as provided in the foregoing with respect to indemnification of Pubco.

**4.1.3** Any person entitled to indemnification herein shall (i) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification (provided that the failure to give prompt notice shall not impair any person's right to indemnification hereunder to the extent such failure has not materially prejudiced the indemnifying party) and (ii) unless in such indemnified party's reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist with respect to such claim, permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. If such defense is assumed, the indemnifying party shall not be subject to any liability for any settlement made by the indemnified party without its consent (but such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). An indemnifying party who is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim shall not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel (plus one local counsel) for all parties indemnified by such indemnifying party with respect to such claim, unless in the reasonable judgment of any indemnified party a conflict of interest may exist between such indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with respect to such claim. No indemnifying party shall, without the consent of the indemnified party, consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which cannot be settled in all respects by the payment of money (and such money is so paid by the indemnifying party pursuant to the terms of such settlement) or which settlement includes a statement or admission of fault or culpability on the part of such indemnified party or which settlement does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation.

**4.1.4** The indemnification provided for under this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the indemnified party or any officer, director or controlling person of such indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of securities. Pubco and each Holder of Registrable Securities participating in an offering also agrees to make such provisions as are reasonably requested by any indemnified party for contribution to such party in the event Pubco's or such Holder's indemnification is unavailable for any reason.

**4.1.5** If the indemnification provided under Section 4.1 hereof from the indemnifying party is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses referred to herein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying the indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact, was made by (or not made, in the case of an omission), or relates to information supplied by (or not supplied by, in the case of an omission), such indemnifying party or indemnified party, and the indemnifying party's and indemnified party's relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action; provided, however, that the liability of any Holder under this subsection 4.1.5 shall be limited to the amount of the net proceeds received by such Holder in such offering giving rise to such liability. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the losses or other liabilities referred to above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in subsections 4.1.1, 4.1.2 and 4.1.3 above, any legal or other fees, charges or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any investigation or proceeding. The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this subsection 4.1.5 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation, which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in this subsection 4.1.5. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution pursuant to this subsection 4.1.5 from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

"The Company agrees that as soon as practicable, but in no event later than twenty (20) Business Days after [●]<sup>3</sup>, it shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to file with the Commission a post-effective amendment to the registration statement, or a new registration statement registering, under the Securities Act, the issuance of the shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the same to become effective and to maintain the effectiveness of such post-effective amendment or registration statement, and a current prospectus relating thereto, until the expiration of the Warrants in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. If any such post-effective amendment or registration statement has not been declared effective by the sixtieth (60th) Business Day following [●]<sup>4</sup>, holders of the Warrants shall have the right, during the period beginning on the sixty-first (61st) Business Day after [●]<sup>5</sup> and ending upon such post-effective amendment or registration statement being declared effective by the Commission, and during any other period when the Company shall fail to have maintained an effective registration statement covering the shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants, to exercise such Warrants on a "cashless basis," by exchanging the Warrants (in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act (or any successor rule) or another exemption) for that number of shares of Class A Common Stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of shares of Class A Common Stock underlying the Warrants, multiplied by the excess of the "Fair Market Value" (as defined below) over the Warrant Price by (y) the Fair Market Value. Solely for purposes of this <u>subsection 7.4.1</u>, "Fair Market Value" shall mean the average closing price of the Class A Common Stock for the ten (10) trading day period ending on the trading day prior to the date that notice of exercise is received by the Warrant Agent from the holder of such Warrants or its securities broker or intermediary. The date that notice of cashless exercise is received by the Warrant Agent shall be conclusively determined by the Warrant Agent. In connection with the "cashless exercise" of a Public Warrant, the Company shall, upon request, provide the Warrant Agent with an opinion of counsel for the Company (which shall be an outside law firm with securities law experience) stating that (i) the exercise of the Warrants on a cashless basis in accordance with this <u>subsection 7.4.1</u> is not required to be registered under the Securities Act and (ii) the shares of Class A Common Stock issued upon such exercise shall be freely tradable under United States federal securities laws by anyone who is not an affiliate (as such term is defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act (or any successor rule)) of the Company and, accordingly, shall not be required to bear a restrictive legend. Except as provided in <u>subsection 7.4.2</u>, for the avoidance of any doubt, unless and until all of the Warrants have been exercised or have expired, the Company shall continue to be obligated to comply with its registration obligations under the first three sentences of this <u>subsection 7.4.1</u>."

2.17 <u>Waiver</u>. <u>Section 8.6</u> of the Existing Warrant Agreement is hereby amended by deleting such Section and replacing it entirely as follows:

"[intentionally omitted]".

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.18 <u>Warrant Certificate</u>. <u>Exhibit A</u> to the Existing Warrant Agreement is hereby amended by deleting <u>Exhibit A</u> in its entirety and replacing it with a new <u>Exhibit A</u> attached hereto.

**BIG3 BASKETBALL HOLDINGS, INC.**

*Incorporated Under the Laws of the State of Delaware*

CUSIP [●]

**Warrant Certificate**

This warrant certificate (this "***Warrant Certificate***") certifies that<u> </u>, or registered assigns, is the registered holder of warrant(s) evidenced hereby (the "***Warrants***," and each, a "***Warrant***") to purchase shares of Class A common stock, $0.0001 par value per share ("***Class A Common Stock***"), of Big3 Basketball Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "***Company***"). Each whole Warrant entitles the holder, upon exercise during the period set forth in the Warrant Agreement referred to below, to receive from the Company that number of fully paid and non-assessable shares of Class A Common Stock as set forth below, at the exercise price (the "***Warrant Price***") as determined pursuant to the Warrant Agreement, payable in lawful money of the United States of America (or through "cashless exercise" as provided for in the Warrant Agreement) upon surrender of this Warrant Certificate and payment of the Warrant Price at the office or agency of the Warrant Agent referred to below, subject to the conditions set forth herein and in the Warrant Agreement. Defined terms used in this Warrant Certificate but not defined herein shall have the meanings given to them in the Warrant Agreement.

Each whole Warrant is initially exercisable for one fully paid and non-assessable share of Class A Common Stock. No fractional shares will be issued upon exercise of any Warrant. If, upon the exercise of Warrants, a holder would be entitled to receive a fractional interest in a share of Class A Common Stock, the Company will, upon exercise, round down to the nearest whole number of shares of Class A Common Stock to be issued to the Warrant holder. The number of shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants is subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain events as set forth in the Warrant Agreement.

The initial Warrant Price is equal to $11.50 per share of Class A Common Stock. The Warrant Price is subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain events as set forth in the Warrant Agreement.

Subject to the conditions set forth in the Warrant Agreement, the Warrants may be exercised only during the Exercise Period and, to the extent not exercised by the end of such Exercise Period, such Warrants shall become void. The Warrants may be redeemed, subject to certain conditions, as set forth in the Warrant Agreement.

Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of this Warrant Certificate set forth on the reverse hereof and such further provisions shall for all purposes have the same effect as though fully set forth at this place.

This Warrant Certificate shall not be valid unless countersigned by the Warrant Agent, as such term is used in the Warrant Agreement.

This Warrant Certificate shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York.

[Form of Warrant Certificate]

[Reverse]

The Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate are part of a duly authorized issue of Warrants entitling the holder on exercise to receive shares of Class A Common Stock and are issued or to be issued pursuant to a Warrant Agreement, dated as of June 25, 2024, as duly executed and delivered by Graf Global Corp., a Cayman Islands exempted company (the "***SPAC***"), to Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, a New York corporation, as warrant agent (the "***Warrant Agent***"), as amended by the Warrant Assignment, Assumption and Amendment Agreement, dated as of [____________], by and among the SPAC, the Warrant Agent and the Company (as so amended, the "***Warrant Agreement***"), which Warrant Agreement is hereby incorporated by reference in and made a part of this instrument and is hereby referred to for a description of the rights, limitation of rights, obligations, duties, and immunities thereunder of the Warrant Agent, the Company, and the holders (the words "***holders***" or "***holder***" meaning the Registered Holders or Registered Holder, respectively) of the Warrants. A copy of the Warrant Agreement may be obtained by the holder hereof upon written request to the Company.

Warrants may be exercised at any time during the Exercise Period set forth in the Warrant Agreement. The holder of Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate may exercise them by surrendering this Warrant Certificate, with the form of Election to Purchase set forth hereon properly completed and executed, together with payment of the Warrant Price as specified in the Warrant Agreement (or through "cashless exercise" as provided for in the Warrant Agreement) at the principal corporate trust office of the Warrant Agent. In the event that upon any exercise of Warrants evidenced hereby the number of Warrants exercised shall be less than the total number of Warrants evidenced hereby, there shall be issued to the holder hereof or his, her, or its assignee, a new Warrant Certificate evidencing the number of Warrants not exercised.

Notwithstanding anything else in this Warrant Certificate or the Warrant Agreement, no Warrant may be exercised unless at the time of exercise (i) a registration statement covering the shares of Class A Common Stock to be issued upon exercise is effective under the Securities Act and (ii) a prospectus thereunder relating to the shares of Class A Common Stock is current, except through "cashless exercise" as provided for in the Warrant Agreement. In addition, and notwithstanding anything else in this Warrant Certificate or the Warrant Agreement, to the extent that the holder of a Warrant has delivered a notice contemplated by <u>subsection 3.3.5</u> of the Warrant Agreement, neither the Company nor the Warrant Agent shall issue to Holder, and Holder may not acquire, any right it might have to acquire, a number of shares of Class A Common Stock upon exercise of any Warrant to the extent that, upon such exercise, the number of shares of Class A Common Stock then beneficially owned by Holder would exceed the Maximum Percentage of Class A Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise as determined in accordance with <u>subsection 3.3.5</u> of the Warrant Agreement.

The Warrant Agreement provides that, upon the occurrence of certain events, the number of shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants set forth on the face hereof may, subject to certain conditions, be adjusted. If, upon exercise of a Warrant, the holder thereof would be entitled to receive a fractional interest in a share of Class A Common Stock, the Company shall, upon exercise, round down to the nearest whole number of shares of Class A Common Stock to be issued to the holder of the Warrant.

Warrant Certificates, when surrendered at the principal corporate trust office of the Warrant Agent by the Registered Holder thereof in person or by legal representative or attorney duly authorized in writing, may be exchanged in the manner and subject to the limitations provided in the Warrant Agreement, but without payment of any service charge, for another Warrant Certificate or Warrant Certificates of like tenor evidencing in the aggregate a like number of Warrants.

Upon due presentation for registration of transfer of this Warrant Certificate at the office of the Warrant Agent, a new Warrant Certificate or Warrant Certificates of like tenor and evidencing in the aggregate a like number of Warrants shall be issued to the transferee(s) in exchange for this Warrant Certificate, subject to the limitations provided in the Warrant Agreement, without charge except for any tax or other governmental charge imposed in connection therewith.

The Company and the Warrant Agent may deem and treat the Registered Holder(s) hereof as the absolute owner(s) of this Warrant Certificate (notwithstanding any notation of ownership or other writing hereon made by anyone), for the purpose of any exercise hereof, of any distribution to the holder(s) hereof, and for all other purposes, and neither the Company nor the Warrant Agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary. Neither the Warrants nor this Warrant Certificate entitles any holder hereof to any rights of a shareholder of the Company.

## Exhibit 10.5

**Exhibit 10.5**

<u>SPONSOR INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT</u>

This Sponsor Indemnification Agreement (this "**Agreement**") is dated as of [●], 2026, by and among Big3 Basketball Holdings, Inc., a Delaware Corporation (formerly known as Halfcourt Holdco, Inc., "**Pubco**"), **BIG3 HoldCo LLC**, a Delaware limited liability company (the "**Company**"), and Graf Global Sponsor LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the "**Sponsor**"). Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed to such terms in the Business Combination Agreement, dated as of June 12, 2026, entered into by and among Graf Global Corp., a Cayman Islands exempted company (the "**SPAC**"), Pubco, Halfcourt Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Pubco, Halfcourt Merger Sub LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly-owned subsidiary of Pubco, and the Company (the "**Business Combination Agreement**").

**RECITALS**

**WHEREAS**, on the date hereof, Pubco consummated the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement; and

**WHEREAS**, in connection with the Business Combination, the parties hereto desire to agree to certain matters as set forth herein.

**AGREEMENT**

**NOW, THEREFORE**, the parties hereto agree, as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. Pubco and the Company each hereby agrees to and shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Sponsor
and its shareholders, members, directors, managers and officers (each, a "**Sponsor Indemnified Person** "), from and against
any and all actions, causes of action, suits, claims, proceedings, investigations, liabilities, losses, damages, costs, fees, penalties,
awards, settlements, judgments, decrees, amounts paid in settlement or expenses (including interest, assessments and other charges in
connection therewith and reasonable fees and disbursements of attorneys and other professional advisors and costs of suit) (collectively,
the "**Sponsor Indemnified Liabilities**") arising out of or relating to any pending or threatened action, cause of action,
suit, litigation, investigation, proceeding, inquiry, arbitration or claim against any of them or in which any of them may be a participant
or may otherwise be involved (including as a witness) that arises out of or relates to the SPAC's operations or conduct of its business
(including, for the avoidance of doubt, the Transactions) and/or any claim against the Sponsor and/or a Sponsor Indemnified Person alleging
any expressed or implied management, control or endorsement of any activities of the SPAC, or any express or implied association with
Pubco, the Company, or the SPAC, or any of their respective affiliates (each of the foregoing, a "**Claim** "); *provided*,
that the foregoing shall not apply to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;a. any Sponsor Indemnified Liabilities to the extent arising primarily out of any breach by such Sponsor
Indemnified Person of any other agreement between such Sponsor Indemnified Person, on the one hand, and the Company, Pubco or the SPAC
or any of their respective Subsidiaries, on the other hand; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;b. the willful misconduct, gross negligence or bad faith of such Sponsor Indemnified Person.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. Pubco and the Company will, at their expense, undertake the defense of any Claim with attorneys of their
own choosing reasonably satisfactory in all respects to the applicable Sponsor Indemnified Person, subject to the right of such Sponsor
Indemnified Person to undertake such defense as hereinafter provided. The applicable Sponsor Indemnified Person may participate in such
defense with counsel of such Sponsor Indemnified Person's choosing at the expense of Pubco and the Company. In the event that Pubco
or the Company does not undertake the defense of any Claim within a reasonable time after the applicable Sponsor Indemnified Person has
given the notice thereof, pursuant to  **<u>Section 13</u>** hereof, or in the event that such Sponsor Indemnified Person shall
in good faith determine that the defense of any Claim by Pubco and/or the Company is inadequate or may conflict with the interest of such
Sponsor Indemnified Person, such Sponsor Indemnified Person may, at the expense of Pubco and the Company and after giving notice, pursuant
to  **<u>Section 13</u>** hereof, to Pubco or the Company of such action, undertake the defense of the Claim and compromise or
settle the Claim, all for the account of and at the risk of Pubco and the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. Pubco and the Company shall pay all reasonable and documented costs and expenses (including, without limitation,
attorneys' fees and costs of experts) incurred by any Sponsor Indemnified Person in connection with such Sponsor Indemnified Person's
defense of any such Claim promptly after receipt of any statement therefor.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4. In the defense of any Claim against a Sponsor Indemnified Person, the Company and Pubco shall not, except
with the prior written consent of such Sponsor Indemnified Person, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement that
includes any injunctive or other non-monetary relief or any payment of money by such Sponsor Indemnified Person, or that does not include
as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the person or persons asserting such Claim to such Sponsor Indemnified Person of an unconditional
release from all liability on any of the matters that are the subject of such Claim and an acknowledgement that such Sponsor Indemnified
Person denies all wrongdoing in connection with such matters.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5. The Company and Pubco shall not be obligated to indemnify a Sponsor Indemnified Person against amounts
paid in settlement of a Claim if such settlement is effected by such Sponsor Indemnified Person without the prior written consent of the
Company or Pubco, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6. If the indemnification provided for in this Agreement is for any reason not available to a Sponsor Indemnified
Person as a matter of law in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to herein, then, in lieu of indemnifying such
Sponsor Indemnified Person therefor, the Company and Pubco shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Sponsor Indemnified
Person as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (and expenses relating thereto):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;a. in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits to the Sponsor Indemnified Person,
on the one hand, and the Company and Pubco, on the other hand, of the subject matter of this Agreement; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;b. if the allocation provided by clause (a) above is not available, in such proportion as is appropriate
to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in such clause (a) but also the relative fault of each of such Sponsor Indemnified
Person and the Company and Pubco, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7. The provisions of this Agreement are (x) intended to be for the benefit of, and will be enforceable
by, each Sponsor Indemnified Person and each such Sponsor Indemnified Person's heirs, legatees, representatives, successors and
assigns, and shall be binding on all successors and assigns of Pubco and the Company and may not be terminated or amended in any manner
adverse to such Sponsor Indemnified Person without its prior written consent and (y) in addition to, and not in substitution for,
any other rights to indemnification or contribution that any such Sponsor Indemnified Person may have by contract or otherwise. For the
avoidance of doubt, no amendment, alteration, or repeal of this Agreement or of any provision hereof shall limit or restrict any right
of each Sponsor Indemnified Person under this Agreement in respect of any Claim (regardless of when such Claim is first threatened, commenced,
or completed), issue, or matter therein arising out of, or related to, any action taken or omitted by such Sponsor Indemnified Person
prior to such amendment, alteration, or repeal.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement and understanding of the parties hereto in respect of
the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior understandings, agreements or representations by or among the parties hereto, written
or oral, to the extent they relate in any way to the subject matter hereof or the transactions contemplated hereby provided that, for
the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing shall not affect the rights and obligations of the parties under the Business Combination Agreement
or any documents related thereto or referred to therein. This Agreement may not be changed, amended, modified or waived (other than to
correct a typographical error) as to any particular provision, except by a written instrument executed by the undersigned.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9. The Company and Pubco shall require and cause any of its successors (whether direct or indirect by purchase,
merger, consolidation, or otherwise) to this Agreement, by written agreement in form and substance satisfactory to each Sponsor Indemnified
Person, expressly to assume and agree to perform this Agreement to the fullest extent permitted by law. This Agreement shall be binding
on the undersigned and each of its respective successors (whether direct or indirect by purchase, merger, consolidation, or otherwise),
heirs and assigns and permitted transferees.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10. The Law of the State of Delaware shall govern (a) all claims or matters related to or arising from
this Agreement (including any tort or non-contractual claims) and (b) any questions concerning the construction, interpretation,
validity and enforceability of this Agreement, and the performance of the obligations imposed by this Agreement, in each case without
giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law rules or provisions (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction)
that would cause the application of the Law of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11. Each party hereto submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of first, the Delaware Court of Chancery, or if
such court declines jurisdiction, then to any court of the State of Delaware or the Federal District Court for the District of Delaware,
in any Proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, agrees that all claims in respect of the Proceeding shall be heard and
determined in any such court and agrees not to bring any Proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement in any other courts.
Nothing in this  **<u>Section 11</u>** , however, shall affect the right of any party to serve legal process in any other manner
permitted by Law or at equity. Each party hereto agrees that a final judgment in any Proceeding so brought shall be conclusive and may
be enforced by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Law or at equity. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL
RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY PROCEEDING BROUGHT TO RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE BETWEEN OR AMONG ANY OF THE PARTIES (WHETHER ARISING IN CONTRACT,
TORT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF, CONNECTED WITH, RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE TRANSACTIONS OR THE RELATIONSHIPS ESTABLISHED
AMONG THE PARTIES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT. EACH PARTY FURTHER WARRANTS AND REPRESENTS THAT SUCH PARTY HAS REVIEWED THIS WAIVER WITH ITS LEGAL
COUNSEL, AND THAT SUCH PARTY KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVES ITS JURY TRIAL RIGHTS FOLLOWING CONSULTATION WITH LEGAL COUNSEL.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12. The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event any provision of this Agreement
was not performed in accordance with the terms hereof and that the parties shall be entitled to specific performance of the terms hereof,
in addition to any other remedy at law or in equity without the necessity of proving the inadequacy of money damages as a remedy and without
bond or other security being required, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity. Each
of the parties hereto hereby further acknowledges that the existence of any other remedy contemplated by this Agreement does not diminish
the availability of specific performance of the obligations hereunder or any other injunctive relief. It is accordingly agreed that the
parties hereto shall be entitled to seek an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically
the terms and provisions of this Agreement in the Delaware Court of Chancery, this being in addition to any other remedy to which such
party is entitled at law or in equity. Each party hereto hereby further agrees that in the event of any action by any other party for
specific performance or injunctive relief, it will not assert that a remedy at law or other remedy would be adequate or that specific
performance or injunctive relief in respect of such breach or violation should not be available on the grounds that money damages are
adequate or any other grounds.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;13. Any notice or other communication hereunder shall be sent in writing, addressed as specified below, and
shall be deemed given: (a) if by hand or recognized courier service, by 5:00 PM on a Business Day, addressee's day and time,
on the date of delivery, and otherwise on the first Business Day after such delivery; (b) if by email, on the date of transmission;
or (c) five (5) days after mailing by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested. Notices shall be addressed to

## Exhibit 10.6

**Exhibit 10.6**

THIS PROMISSORY NOTE ("NOTE") HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "SECURITIES ACT"). THIS NOTE HAS BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT ONLY AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED IN THE ABSENCE OF REGISTRATION OF THE RESALE THEREOF UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL REASONABLY SATISFACTORY IN FORM, SCOPE AND SUBSTANCE TO THE MAKER THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED.

**CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE ("NOTE")**

Principal Amount: Up to $200,000<br> Dated: June 10, 2026

Graf Global Corp., a Cayman Islands exempted company (the "**Maker**"), promises to pay to the order of Harraden Circle Investments, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company or its registered assigns or successors in interest (the "**Payee**"), or order, the principal sum of up to Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($200,000) or such lesser amount as has been advanced by Payee to Maker and remains unpaid under this Note on the Maturity Date (as defined below) in lawful money of the United States of America, on the terms and conditions described below, with such amount inclusive of Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000) previously advanced by the Payee to the Maker in March 2026 and Seventy-five Thousand Dollars ($75,000) previously advanced by the Payee to the Maker in April 2026. Subject to Section 15, all payments on this Note shall be made by check or wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account as the Payee may from time to time designate by written notice in accordance with the provisions of this Note.

This Note constitutes the entire agreement between the Maker and the Payee, and with James Graf with respect to the last sentence of Section 17 (Re-allocation), with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous agreements and understandings, whether written or oral, related to such subject matter. In furtherance and not limitation of the foregoing, it is the intention of Maker and Payee that this Note replace and supersede the promissory note among the Maker, Payee, and James Graf dated June 4, 2026 and that this Note shall represent the substitution of one evidence of debt for another without any intention to extinguish the debt.

**1. Principal.** The entire unpaid principal balance of this Note shall be payable on the earlier of: (i) the date on which Maker consummates an initial business combination (the "**Closing Date**") and (ii) the date of the liquidation of Maker (the earlier of such date and the Closing Date, the "**Maturity Date**"). The principal balance may not be prepaid at any time without the consent of the Payee. The Payee understands that if a business combination is not consummated, this Note will be repaid solely to the extent that the Maker has funds available to it outside of the trust account (the "**Trust Account**") established in which the proceeds of the initial public offering ("the "**IPO**") conducted by the Maker (including the deferred underwriters' discounts and commissions) and the proceeds of the sale of the warrants issued in a private placement that occurred prior to the closing of the IPO were deposited, as described in greater detail in Maker's Registration Statement on Form S-1 (333-279889) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with the IPO (the "**Registration Statement**"), and that all other amounts will be forfeited, eliminated or otherwise forgiven. Under no circumstances shall any individual, including but not limited to any officer, director, employee or shareholder of the Maker, be obligated personally for any obligations or liabilities of the Maker hereunder.

**2. Drawdown Requests.** From time to time from the date hereof through the Maturity Date, Maker may make written requests to Payee to draw down all or a portion of the aggregate principal amount of this Note (each, a "**Drawdown Request**"), provided that each of the following conditions have been satisfied: (i) Maker's board of directors has unanimously resolved to seek such funds for the purpose of funding Maker's working capital requirements, and (ii) Payee has consented to such Drawdown Request (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). If both of the foregoing conditions have been satisfied, Payee shall fund each Drawdown Request via wire transfer no later than the later of (x) one (1) business day after receipt of a Drawdown Request or (y) the date as specified on the Drawdown Request; provided, however, that the maximum amount of drawdowns outstanding under this Note at any time may not exceed Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($200,000). Once an amount is drawn down under this Note, it shall not be available for future Drawdown Requests even if prepaid. No fees, payments or other amounts shall be due to Payee in connection with, or as a result of, any Drawdown Request by Maker. $125,000 has been advanced by the Payee to the Maker to date. Upon execution of this Note, the Maker and the Payee agree to an incremental Drawdown Request of $75,000. Accordingly, upon Payee's payment of that $75,000, the principal balance of this Note shall total $200,000, with zero remaining available under this Note for possible future Drawdown Requests.

3. **Interest.** No interest shall accrue on the unpaid principal balance of this Note; provided, however, that if any amount payable hereunder is not paid when due (after giving effect to any applicable grace period), such overdue amount shall bear interest, from and after the due date thereof until payment in full, at a rate per annum equal to the maximum rate permissible under applicable law.

4. **Application of Payments.** All payments received by Payee pursuant to this Note shall be applied first to payment in full of any costs incurred in the collection of any sum due under this Note, including (without limitation) reasonable attorneys' fees, then to the reduction of the unpaid principal balance of this Note.

5. **Events of Default.** The following shall constitute an event of default ("**Event of Default**"):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Failure to Make Required Payments. Failure by Maker to pay the principal amount due pursuant to this Note within two (2) business days of the Closing Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Voluntary Bankruptcy, Etc. The commencement by Maker of a voluntary case under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, rehabilitation or other similar law, or the consent by it to the appointment of or taking possession by a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, custodian, sequestrator (or other similar official) of Maker or for any substantial part of its property, or the making by it of any assignment for the benefit of creditors, or the failure of Maker generally to pay its debts as such debts become due, or the taking of corporate action by Maker in furtherance of any of the foregoing.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Involuntary Bankruptcy, Etc. The entry of a decree or order for relief by a court having jurisdiction in the premises in respect of Maker in an involuntary case under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, or appointing a receiver, liquidator, assignee, custodian, trustee, sequestrator (or similar official) of Maker or for any substantial part of its property, or ordering the winding-up or liquidation of its affairs, and the continuance of any such decree or order unstayed and in effect for a period of 60 consecutive days.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Liquidation. For the avoidance of doubt, it shall not constitute an Event of Default in the event the Maker fails to consummate a business combination and liquidates and dissolves in accordance with its Amended and Restated Articles of Association, and Payee hereby irrevocably waives any and all rights to receive repayment of the outstanding Principal Amount and any other amounts due and owing under this Note in such a Liquidation.

6. **Remedies.**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default specified in Section 5(a) hereof, Payee may, by written notice to Maker, declare this Note to be due immediately and payable, whereupon the unpaid principal amount of this Note, and all other amounts payable hereunder, shall become immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived, anything contained herein or in the documents evidencing the same to the contrary notwithstanding.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default specified in Sections 5(b) or 5(c), the unpaid principal balance of this Note, and all other amounts payable with regard to this Note, shall automatically and immediately become due and payable, in all cases without any action on the part of Payee.

7. **Waivers.** Maker and all endorsers and guarantors of, and sureties for, this Note waive presentment for payment demand, notice of dishonor, protest, and notice of protest with regard to this Note, all errors, defects and imperfections in any proceedings instituted by Payee under the terms of this Note, and all benefits that might accrue to Maker by virtue of any present or future laws exempting any property, real or personal, or any part of the proceeds arising from any sale of any such property, from attachment, levy or sale under execution, or providing for any stay of execution, exemption from civil process, or extension of time for payment; and Maker agrees that any real estate that may be levied upon pursuant to a judgment obtained by virtue hereof or any writ of execution issued hereon, may be sold upon any such writ in whole or in part in any order desired by Payee.

**8. Unconditional Liability.** Maker hereby waives all notices in connection with the delivery, acceptance, performance, default, or enforcement of the payment of this Note, and agrees that its liability shall be unconditional, without regard to the liability of any other party, and shall not be affected in any manner by any indulgence, extension of time, renewal, waiver or modification granted or consented to by Payee, and consents to any and all extensions of time, renewals, waivers, or modifications that may be granted by Payee with respect to the payment or other provisions of this Note, and agrees that additional makers, endorsers, guarantors, or sureties may become parties hereto without notice to Maker or affecting Maker's liability hereunder. Any failure of Payee to exercise any right hereunder shall not be construed as a waiver of the right to exercise the same or any other right at any time and from time to time thereafter. Payee may accept late payments, or partial payments, even though marked "payment in full" or containing words of similar import or other conditions, without waiving any of its rights.

**9. Notices.** All notices, statements or other documents which are required or contemplated by this Note shall be: in writing and delivered (i) personally or sent by first class registered or certified mail, overnight courier service or facsimile or electronic transmission to the address designated in writing, and (ii) by electronic mail, to the electronic mail address most recently provided to such party or such other electronic mail address as may be designated in writing by such party. Any notice or other communication so transmitted shall be deemed to have been given on the day of delivery, if delivered personally, on the business day following receipt of written confirmation, if sent by facsimile or electronic transmission, one (1) business day after delivery to an overnight courier service or five (5) days after mailing if sent by mail.

9. **Construction.** THIS NOTE SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAW PROVISIONS THEREOF.

**10. Severability.** Any provision contained in this Note which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

**12. Trust Account Waiver.** Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Payee hereby waives any and all right, title, interest or claim of any kind ("**Claim**") in or to any distribution of or from the Trust Account and hereby agrees not to seek recourse, reimbursement, payment or satisfaction for any Claim against the Trust Account for any reason whatsoever.

**13. Amendment; Waiver.** Any amendment hereto or waiver of any provision hereof may be made with, and only with, the written consent of the Maker and the Payee.

**14. Assignment.** This Note binds and is for the benefit of the successors and permitted assigns of Maker and the Payee. No assignment or transfer of this Note or any rights or obligations hereunder may be made by any party hereto (by operation of law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the other party hereto and any attempted assignment without the required consent shall be void.

**15. Conversion.** Notwithstanding anything contained in this Note to the contrary, at Payee's option, at any time prior to payment in full of the principal balance of this Note, Payee may elect to convert all or any portion of the unpaid principal balance of this Note into that number of shares of capital stock of the Maker or the surviving company in the Maker's initial business combination (the "**Shares**") equal to: (x) the outstanding principal amount of this Note divided by (y) ten dollars ($10.00), rounded up to the nearest whole number of Shares (the "**Conversion Shares**"). Such number of Conversion Shares shall be subject to no transfer restrictions or any other lock-up provisions, earn outs, or other contingencies, subject only to any required SEC registration of the Conversion Shares if not available in an S-4 related to a business combination. Upon any such conversion of the principal amount of this Note, this Note shall become fully paid and satisfied.

**16. Warrants.** On the Closing Date and immediately prior to such closing, the Payee shall be issued one warrant (the "**Warrant**") to purchase one Share for each dollar funded by Payee pursuant to this Note, on the same terms and conditions as those of the private placement warrants ("**Private Placement Warrants**") that were issued to Graf Global Sponsor LLC in connection with the Maker's initial public offering that was consummated on June 27, 2024 (i.e., at $1.00 per Warrant), including the transfer restrictions applicable to the Private Placement Warrants. The Conversion Shares, Warrants, and Shares underlying the Warrants (collectively, the "Registrable Securities") (or the securities the Registrable Securities convert into on the Closing Date) (i) shall be registered as part of any registration statement issuing shares before the Closing Date, if possible, or (ii) if no such registration statement is filed, shall promptly be registered pursuant to the first registration statement filed by the issuer of the Registrable Securities, which shall be filed no later than 30 days after the Closing Date and declared effective no later than 90 days after the Closing Date.

**17. Re-allocation.** Graf Global Sponsor LLC may re-allocate securities among members of Graf Global Sponsor LLC and Graf Global Management LLC to satisfy the obligations of the Maker under Sections 15 and 16 of this Note. In the event of such re-allocation, the re-allocation of the securities shall not reduce or dilute the interests of the Payee or its affiliates in Graf Global Management LLC. For the avoidance of doubt, if Graf Global Sponsor LLC re-allocates securities in accordance with this Section 17, neither the Maker nor the surviving company in the Maker's initial business combination shall be obligated to issue securities pursuant to Sections 15 and 16; provided, however, that such discharge shall only be effective upon the actual delivery of such re-allocated securities to Payee, and Graf Global Sponsor LLC hereby unconditionally agrees to deliver such securities to Payee no later than two (2) business days following the Closing Date.

**18. Expenses**. The Maker shall reimburse the Payee for all attorney fees incurred in the preparation of this Note.

FIRST: The name of the corporation is "Big3 Basketball Holdings, Inc." (hereinafter sometimes referred to as the "***Corporation***").

THIRD: The purpose of the Corporation shall be to engage in any lawful act or activity for which corporations may be organized under the DGCL. In addition to the powers and privileges conferred upon the Corporation by law and those incidental thereto, the Corporation shall possess and may exercise all the powers and privileges that are necessary or convenient to the conduct, promotion or attainment of the business or purposes of the Corporation. The Corporation is to have a perpetual existence.

FOURTH: The total number of shares of all classes of capital stock which the Corporation shall have authority to issue is [__] of which (i) [__] shares shall be Common Stock of the par value of $0.0001 per share ("***Common Stock***"), representing (a) [__] shares of Class A Common Stock ("***Class A Common Stock***") and (b) [__] shares of Class B Common Stock ("***Class B Common Stock***"), and (ii) [__] shares shall be Preferred Stock of the par value of $0.0001 per share ("***Preferred Stock***").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A. <u>Preferred Stock</u>. The Board of Directors is expressly granted authority to issue shares of the Preferred Stock, in one or more series, and to fix for each such series such voting powers, full or limited, and such designations, preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights and such qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof as shall be stated and expressed in the resolution or resolutions adopted by the Board of Directors providing for the issue of such series (a "***Preferred Stock Designation***") and as may be permitted by the DGCL. The number of authorized shares of Preferred Stock may be increased or decreased (but not below the number of shares thereof then outstanding) by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of all of the then outstanding shares of the capital stock of the Corporation entitled to vote thereon, irrespective of the provisions of Section 242(b)(2) of the DGCL or any successor provision thereof, without a separate vote of the holders of the Preferred Stock, or any series thereof, unless a vote of any such holders is required pursuant to any Preferred Stock Designation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;B. <u>Rights of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) *Voting.* Except as otherwise required by law or this Certificate (including any Preferred Stock Designation), the holders of shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock shall (a) at all times vote together as a single class on all matters (including the election of directors) submitted to a vote or for the consent (if action by written consent of the stockholders is permitted at such time under this Certificate) of the stockholders of the corporation, (b) be entitled to notice of any stockholders' meeting in accordance with the Bylaws of the corporation and (c) be entitled to vote upon such matters and in such manner as may be provided by the DGCL. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein or required by the DGCL, each holder of Class B Common Stock shall have the right to ten (10) votes per share of Class B Common Stock held of record by such holder and each holder of Class A Common Stock shall have the right to one (1) vote per share of Class A Common Stock held of record by such holder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) *Dividend and Distribution Rights.* Shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock shall be treated equally, identically and ratably, on a per share basis, with respect to any dividends or distributions as may be declared and paid from time to time by the Board of Directors out of any assets of the corporation legally available therefor; provided, however, that in the event a dividend is paid in the form of shares of Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock (or rights to acquire such shares), then holders of Class A Common Stock shall receive shares of Class A Common Stock (or rights to acquire such shares, as the case may be) and holders of Class B Common Stock shall receive shares of Class B Common Stock (or rights to acquire such shares, as the case may be), with holders of shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock receiving, on a per share basis, an identical number of shares of Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock, as applicable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board of Directors may pay or make a disparate dividend or distribution per share of Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock (whether in the amount of such dividend or distribution payable per share, the form in which such dividend or distribution is payable, the timing of the payment, or otherwise) if such disparate dividend or distribution is approved in advance by the affirmative vote (or written consent if action by written consent of stockholders is permitted at such time under this Certificate) of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock, each voting separately as a class. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if the date on which any share of Class B Common Stock is converted into Class A Common Stock pursuant to the provisions of Section C of this Article Fourth occurs after the record date for the determination of the holders of Class B Common Stock entitled to receive any dividend or distribution to be paid on the shares of Class B Common Stock, the holder of such shares of Class B Common Stock as of such record date will be entitled to receive such dividend or distribution on such payment date; provided, that, notwithstanding any other provision of this Certificate, to the extent that any such dividend or distribution is payable in shares of Class B Common Stock, such dividend or distribution shall be deemed to have been declared, and shall be payable in, shares of Class A Common Stock and no shares of Class B Common Stock shall be issued in payment thereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) *Subdivisions, Combinations or Reclassifications*. Shares of Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock may not be subdivided, combined or reclassified unless the shares of the other class are concurrently therewith proportionately subdivided, combined or reclassified in a manner that maintains the same proportionate equity ownership between the holders of the outstanding Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock on the record date for such subdivision, combination or reclassification; provided, however, that shares of one such class may be subdivided, combined or reclassified in a different or disproportionate manner if such subdivision, combination or reclassification is approved in advance by the affirmative vote (or written consent if action by written consent of stockholders is permitted at such time under this Certificate) of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock, each voting separately as a class.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4) *Liquidation, Dissolution or Winding Up of the Corporation.* Subject to the preferential or other rights of any holders of Preferred Stock then outstanding, upon the dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary, holders of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock will be entitled to receive ratably all assets of the corporation available for distribution to its stockholders unless disparate or different treatment of the shares of each such class with respect to distributions upon any such liquidation, dissolution or winding up is approved in advance by the affirmative vote (or written consent if action by written consent of stockholders is permitted at such time under this Certificate) of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock, each voting separately as a class.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(5) *Merger or Consolidation*. In the case of any distribution or payment in respect of the shares of Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock, or any consideration into which such shares are converted, upon the consolidation or merger of the Corporation with or into any other entity, such distribution, payment or consideration that the holders of shares of Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock have the right to receive, or the right to elect to receive, shall be made ratably on a per share basis among the holders of the Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock as a single class; *provided, however*, that shares of such classes may receive, or have the right to elect to receive, different or disproportionate distribution, payment or consideration in connection with such consolidation, merger or other transaction in order to reflect the special rights, powers and privileges of holders of shares of Class B Common Stock under this Certificate (which may include, without limitation, securities distributable to the holders of, or issuable upon the conversion of, each share of Class B Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such transaction having up to ten (10) times the voting power of any securities distributable to the holders of, or issuable upon the conversion of, each share of Class A Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such transaction) or such other rights, powers, privileges or other terms that are no more favorable, in the aggregate, to the holders of the Class B Common Stock relative to the holders of the Class A Common Stock than those contained in this Certificate.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(6) *Third Party Tender or Exchange Offers*. The Corporation may not enter into any agreement pursuant to which a third party may by tender or exchange offer acquire any shares of Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock unless the holders of (a) the Class A Common Stock shall have the right to receive, or the right to elect to receive, the same form of consideration and the same amount of consideration on a per share basis as the holders of the Class B Common Stock would receive, or have the right to elect to receive, and (b) the Class B Common Stock shall have the right to receive, or the right to elect to receive, the same form of consideration and the same amount of consideration on a per share basis as the holders of the Class A Common Stock would receive, or have the right to elect to receive; *provided, however*, that shares of such classes may receive, or have the right to elect to receive, different or disproportionate consideration in connection with such tender or exchange offer in order to reflect the special rights, powers and privileges of the holders of shares of the Class B Common Stock under this Certificate (which may include, without limitation, securities exchangeable for each share of Class B Common Stock having up to ten (10) times the voting power of any securities exchangeable for each share of Class A Common Stock) or such other rights, powers, privileges or other terms that are no more favorable, in the aggregate, to the holders of the Class B Common Stock relative to the holders of the Class A Common Stock than those contained in this Certificate.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(7) *Increases and Decreases of Authorized Common Stock*. Subject to the rights of the holders of any series of Preferred Stock, the number of authorized shares of Common Stock may be increased or decreased by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority in voting power of the outstanding stock of the Corporation entitled to vote thereon irrespective of the provisions of Section 242(b)(2) of the DGCL or any successor provision thereof, and no vote of the holders of any of the Common Stock or Preferred Stock voting separately as a class shall be required therefor. Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, the number of authorized shares of any particular class may not be decreased below the number of shares of such class then outstanding, plus, in the case of Class A Common Stock, the number of shares of Class A Common Stock issuable in connection with (a) the exchange of all outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock and (b) the exercise of outstanding options, warrants, exchange rights, conversion rights or similar rights for shares of Class A Common Stock.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;C. <u>Conversion of Class B Common Stock</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) Each share of Class B Common Stock will automatically convert into one fully paid and nonassessable share of Class A Common Stock on the Final Conversion Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) Each share of Class B Common Stock held by any applicable Class B Holder will automatically be converted into one fully paid and nonassessable share of Class A Common Stock as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) with respect to any Class B Holder, 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the day immediately following such date on which such Class B Holder is no longer holding at least 50% of the shares of Class B Stock that such Class B Holder held immediately following the consummation of the Business Combination (as such number of shares is equitably adjusted in respect of any reclassification, stock dividend, subdivision, combination or recapitalization of the Class B Common Stock);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) upon any sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance, hypothecation or other transfer or disposition of such share or any legal or beneficial interest in such share, whether or not for value and whether voluntary or involuntary or by operation of law, including, without limitation, a transfer of a share of Class B Common Stock to a broker or other nominee (regardless of whether there is a corresponding change in beneficial ownership), or the transfer of, or entering into a binding agreement with respect to voting control over such share by proxy or otherwise (each a "***Transfer***"), other than a Permitted Transfer (as defined below), of such share of Class B Common Stock; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(C) upon the death, incapacity, or, if applicable, adjudication of incompetency or placement under a guardianship or conservatorship by a court of competent jurisdiction of a Class B Holder. For the avoidance of doubt, for purposes of this Section 4(C)(2)(C), "incapacity" means a determination by a licensed physician that such Class B Holder has suffered a physical or mental impairment that renders such holder unable to perform the material duties customarily incident to the ownership and exercise of the rights of such shares of Class B Common Stock on a sustained basis for a period of at least ninety (90) consecutive days or one hundred twenty (120) days in any one hundred eighty (180) day period, or such other standard as the Board may reasonably and in good faith apply consistent with market practice.

Each of the conversions set forth in subsections (1) and (2) above shall occur automatically without the need for any further action by the holders of such shares and whether or not the certificates representing such shares (if any) are surrendered to the Corporation or its transfer agent. Immediately upon the effectiveness of such automatic conversion, holders of such converted shares of Class B Common Stock shall be treated for all purposes as holders of such shares of Class A Common Stock into which such shares of Class B Common Stock were converted.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) Each share of Class B Common Stock shall be convertible at any time at the option of the holder into one fully paid and nonassessable share of Class A Common Stock upon written notice to the Corporation; provided, that the Corporation shall not be obligated to issue certificates evidencing the shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon such conversion unless the certificates evidencing such shares of Class B Common Stock are either delivered to the Corporation or its transfer agent, or the holder notifies the Corporation or its transfer agent that such certificates have been lost, stolen or destroyed and executes an agreement satisfactory to the Corporation to indemnify the Corporation from any loss incurred by it in connection with such certificates.

*Permitted Transfers*. The following shall not be considered a Transfer:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the granting of a revocable proxy to officers or directors of the Corporation at the request of the Board
of Directors in connection with actions to be taken at an annual or special meeting of stockholders;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) entering into a voting trust, agreement or arrangement (with or without granting a proxy) solely with
stockholders who are holders of shares of Class B Common Stock that (A) is disclosed either in a Schedule 13D filed with the

or is terminable by the holder of the shares subject thereto at any time and (C) does not involve any payment of cash, securities,
property or other consideration to the holder of the shares subject thereto other than the mutual promise to vote shares in a designated
manner;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) the pledge of shares of Class B Common Stock by a stockholder that creates a mere security interest
in such shares pursuant to a bona fide loan or indebtedness transaction for so long as such stockholder continues to exercise exclusive
voting control over such pledged shares; provided, however, that a foreclosure on such shares or other similar action by the pledgee shall
constitute a Transfer unless such foreclosure or similar action qualifies as a Permitted Transfer;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) entering into, or reaching an agreement, arrangement or understanding
regarding, a support or similar voting or tender agreement (with or without granting a proxy) in connection with a liquidation of the
Corporation, business combination, or acquisition that has been approved by the Board of Directors;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) any transfer by a holder of Class B Common Stock to (A) another Class B Holder, (B) any
Permitted Trust or (C) any Permitted Entity (each, a "  ***Permitted Transferee*** ");

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi) any transfer to the Corporation; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vii) any transfer pursuant to a court order or by operation of law (including pursuant to a qualified domestic
relations order or in connection with a divorce settlement), in each case so long as such transfer is for bona fide estate planning, tax
planning, or succession planning purposes and does not involve a disposition for value (other than for nominal consideration or in connection
with the settlement of the estate or similar arrangement).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4) For purposes of this Article Fourth, the following definitions shall apply:

Except as the DGCL may otherwise require, and subject to any special rights of the holders of one or more series of Preferred Stock to elect directors, in the interim between annual meetings of stockholders or special meetings of stockholders called for the election of directors and/or the removal of one or more directors and the filling of any vacancy in that connection, newly created directorships and any vacancies in the Board, including unfilled vacancies resulting from the removal of directors, may be filled only by the vote of a majority of the remaining directors then in office, although less than a quorum (as defined in the Bylaws), or by the sole remaining director.

Directors may be removed from office at any time, with or without cause, only by the affirmative vote of holders of 66-2/3% of the voting power of all then-outstanding shares of capital stock of the Corporation entitled to vote on the election of such director, voting together as a single class.

SIXTH: The following provisions are inserted for the management of the business and for the conduct of the affairs of the Corporation, and for further definition, limitation and regulation of the powers of the Corporation and of its directors and stockholders:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A. Election of directors need not be by ballot unless the Bylaws so provide.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;B. In furtherance and not in limitation of the powers conferred by the laws of the State of Delaware, the Board is expressly authorized to make, alter and repeal the Bylaws without the consent of the stockholders in any manner not inconsistent with the laws of the State of Delaware or this Certificate. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Certificate or any provision of law which might otherwise permit a lesser vote of the stockholders, the stockholders may adopt, amend, alter or repeal the Bylaws only with the affirmative vote of the holders of not less than 66-2/3% of the voting power of all outstanding securities of the Corporation generally entitled to vote in the election of directors, voting together as a single class.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;C. Until the Final Conversion Date, any action required or permitted to be taken by the stockholders of the Corporation at an annual or special meeting of the stockholders of the Corporation may be effected by written consent in lieu of a meeting. Following the Final Conversion Date, any action required or permitted to be taken by the stockholders of the Corporation must be effected at a duly called annual or special meeting of the stockholders of the Corporation and may not be taken by consent of the stockholders in lieu of a meeting.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;D. Except as otherwise expressly provided by the terms of any series of Preferred Stock permitting the holders of such series of Preferred Stock to call a special meeting of the holders of such series, special meetings of the stockholders of the Corporation may be called only by the chairperson of the Board, the chief executive officer of the Corporation or the Board, and the ability of the stockholders to call a special meeting of the stockholders is hereby specifically denied.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;E. Advance notice of stockholder nominations for the election of directors and of business to be brought by stockholders before any meeting of the stockholders of the Corporation shall be given in the manner provided in the Bylaws.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;F. The directors in their discretion may submit any contract or act for approval or ratification at any annual meeting of the stockholders or at any special meeting of the stockholders called for the purpose of considering any such act or contract, and any contract or act that shall be approved or be ratified by the vote of the holders of a majority of the stock of the Corporation which is represented in person or by proxy at such meeting and entitled to vote thereat (provided that a lawful quorum of stockholders be there represented in person or by proxy), unless a higher vote is required by applicable law, shall be as valid and binding upon the Corporation and upon all the stockholders as though it had been approved or ratified by every stockholder of the Corporation, whether or not the contract or act would otherwise be open to legal attack because of directors' interests, or for any other reason.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;G. In addition to the powers and authorities hereinbefore or by statute expressly conferred upon them, the directors are hereby empowered to exercise all such powers and do all such acts and things as may be exercised or done by the Corporation; subject, nevertheless, to the provisions of the statutes of the State of Delaware and of this Certificate.

SEVENTH:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A. A director or officer of the Corporation shall not be personally liable to the Corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director or officer, except to the extent such exemption from liability or limitation thereof is not permitted under the DGCL, as it presently exists or may hereafter be amended from time to time. If the DGCL is amended to authorize corporate action further eliminating or limiting the personal liability of directors or officers, then the liability of a director or officer of the Corporation shall be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, as so amended, automatically and without further action, upon the date of such amendment. Neither the repeal or modification of this paragraph A nor, to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, any modification of law shall adversely affect any right or protection of a director of the Corporation with respect to events occurring prior to the time of such repeal or modification.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;B. The Corporation, to the full extent permitted by Section 145 of the DGCL, as amended from time to time, shall indemnify and advance expenses to all persons made or threatened to be made a party to an action, suit or proceeding, whether criminal, civil, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation or any predecessor of the Corporation or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, and such right to indemnification shall continue as to a person who has ceased to serve in such role and shall inure to the benefit of such person's heirs, executors and personal and legal representatives. Expenses (including attorneys' fees) incurred by such person in defending any civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative action, suit or proceeding for which such person may be entitled to indemnification hereunder 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 person to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that he or she is not entitled to be indemnified by the Corporation as authorized hereby.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;C. The rights to indemnification and advancement of expenses conferred in this Article Seventh of this Certificate shall neither be exclusive of, nor be deemed in limitation of, any rights to which any person may otherwise be or become entitled or permitted under this Certificate, the Bylaws, any statute, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;D. Neither the repeal or modification of this Article Seventh, nor the adoption by amendment of this Certificate of any provision inconsistent with this Article Seventh, shall eliminate or reduce the effect of this Article Seventh in respect of any matter occurring, or any action or proceeding accruing or arising (or that, but for this Article Seventh, would accrue or arise) prior to such amendment or repeal or adoption of an inconsistent provision.

EIGHTH: Whenever a compromise or arrangement is proposed between this Corporation and its creditors or any class of them and/or between this Corporation and its stockholders or any class of them, any court of equitable jurisdiction within the State of Delaware may, on the application in a summary way of this Corporation or of any creditor or stockholder thereof or on the application of any receiver or receivers appointed for this Corporation under Section 291 of Title 8 of the Delaware Code or on the application of trustees in dissolution or of any receiver or receivers appointed for this Corporation under Section 279 of Title 8 of the Delaware Code order a meeting of the creditors or class of creditors, and/or of the stockholders or class of stockholders of this Corporation, as the case may be, to be summoned in such manner as the said court directs. If a majority in number representing three fourths in value of the creditors or class of creditors, and/or of the stockholders or class of stockholders of this Corporation, as the case may be, agree to any compromise or arrangement and to any reorganization of this Corporation as a consequence of such compromise or arrangement, the said compromise or arrangement and the said reorganization shall, if sanctioned by the court to which the said application has been made, be binding on all the creditors or class of creditors, and/or on all the stockholders or class of stockholders, of this Corporation, as the case may be, and also on this Corporation.

NINTH:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A. Unless a majority of the Board, acting on behalf of the Corporation, consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be the sole and exclusive forum for any stockholder (including a beneficial owner) to bring (i) any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of the Corporation, (ii) any action asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any current or former director, officer or other employee, agent or stockholder of the Corporation to the Corporation or to the Corporation's stockholders, (iii) any action asserting a claim against the Corporation, its current or former directors, officers or employees, agents or stockholders arising pursuant to any provision of the DGCL or this Certificate or the Bylaws, or (iv) any action asserting a claim against the Corporation, its current or former directors, officers or employees, agents or stockholders governed by the internal affairs doctrine and, if brought outside of Delaware, the stockholder bringing the suit will be deemed to have consented to service of process on such stockholder's counsel. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware shall not be the sole and exclusive forum for any of the following actions: (A) as to which the Court of Chancery in the State of Delaware determines that there is an indispensable party not subject to the jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery (and the indispensable party does not consent to the personal jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery within ten days following such determination), (B) which is vested in the exclusive jurisdiction of a court or forum other than the Court of Chancery, (C) for which the Court of Chancery does not have subject matter jurisdiction, or (D) any action arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or, in each case, rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, for which there is exclusive federal or concurrent federal and state jurisdiction.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;B. If any action the subject matter of which is within the scope of paragraph A immediately above is filed in a court other than the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (a "***Foreign Action***") in the name of any stockholder, to the fullest extent permitted by law, such stockholder shall be deemed to have consented to (i) the personal jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware in connection with any action brought in any such court to enforce paragraph A immediately above (an "***Enforcement Action***") and (ii) having service of process made upon such stockholder in any such Enforcement Action by service upon such stockholder's counsel in the Foreign Action as agent for such stockholder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;C. If any provision or provisions of this Article Ninth shall be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable as applied to any person or entity or circumstance for any reason whatsoever, then, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the validity, legality and enforceability of such provisions in any other circumstance and of the remaining provisions of this Article Ninth (including, without limitation, each portion of any sentence of this Article Ninth containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable that is not itself held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable) and the application of such provision to other persons or entities and circumstances shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. To the fullest extent permitted by law, any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring any interest in shares of capital stock of the Corporation shall be deemed to have notice of and consented to the provisions of this Article Ninth.

TENTH: The doctrine of corporate opportunity, or any other analogous doctrine, shall not apply with respect to the Corporation, the Initial Class B Holders, or any of the Corporation's non-employee directors in circumstances where the application of any such doctrine would conflict with any fiduciary duties or contractual obligations they may have as of the date of this Certificate or in the future, and the Corporation renounces any expectancy that the Initial Class B Holders or any of the non-employee directors of the Corporation will offer any such corporate opportunity of which he or she may become aware to the Corporation. In addition to the foregoing, the doctrine of corporate opportunity shall not apply to any other corporate opportunity with respect to the Initial Class B Holders or any of the non-employee directors of the Corporation unless such corporate opportunity is offered to such person solely in his or her capacity as a director or officer of the Corporation and such opportunity is one the Corporation is legally and contractually permitted to undertake and would otherwise be reasonable for the Corporation to pursue. To the fullest extent permitted by law, any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring any interest in shares of capital stock of the Corporation shall be deemed to have notice of and consented to the provisions of this Article Tenth.

ELEVENTH: The Corporation reserves the right to amend, alter or repeal any provision contained in this Certificate, in the manner now or hereafter prescribed by this Certificate and the DGCL, and all rights, preferences and privileges herein conferred upon stockholders, directors or any other persons named herein by and pursuant to this Certificate in its present form or as hereafter amended are granted subject to the right reserved in this Article Eleventh. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Certificate or any provision of law which might otherwise permit a lesser vote or no vote, but in addition to any other vote that may be required by law, applicable stock exchange rule or the terms of any series of Preferred Stock, the stockholders may amend, alter, or repeal, or adopt any provision inconsistent with, any provision of Article Fifth, Sixth, Seventh, Eighth, Ninth, Tenth, Eleventh, or Twelfth of this Certificate only with the affirmative vote of the holders of not less than 66-2/3% of the voting power of all outstanding shares of stock of the Corporation generally entitled to vote in the election of directors, voting together as a single class.

TWELFTH: The Corporation will not be subject to Section 203 of the DGCL.
