Article II
AMOUNT AND TERMS OF THE LOANS
Section 2.1Loan Commitment. 
(a)Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Lender agrees to make revolving loans (each, a “Loan” and, collectively, the “Loans”) to the Borrower in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding not to exceed its Pro Rata Share of the Loan Commitment.  The Pro Rata Share of the Loan of any Lender shall not at any time exceed its separate Loan Commitment.  The obligations of each Lender hereunder shall be several and not joint.
(b)The Borrower shall be entitled to borrow, prepay or repay, and reborrow the Loans in accordance with the provisions hereof. 
Section 2.2Borrowing Procedure. The Borrower shall give the Agent written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) of each borrowing to be made by the Borrower substantially in the form of Exhibit A (a “Notice of Borrowing”), each such Notice of Borrowing to be delivered prior to noon (eastern time) one (1) Business Days before the requested date of each borrowing. Each Notice of Borrowing shall be irrevocable and shall specify: (i) the aggregate principal amount of such borrowing (which shall be in an aggregate principal amount no less than $1,000,000 or any multiple of $50,000 in excess thereof, in each case unless otherwise agreed by the Agent), (ii) the date of such borrowing (which shall be a Business Day) and (iii) the Borrower’s account for such borrowing.  The Agent shall notify each Lender promptly after receipt of a Notice of Borrowing of the details thereof by telecopy, telephone or other similar form of transmission.  Each Lender shall, severally and not jointly, make the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of each borrowing request available to the Agent in same day funds by wire transfer to the Agent’s Payment Office not later than 1:30 p.m. New York time on the requested funding date so that the Agent may make such funds available to the Borrower in same day funds by wire transfer to the Borrower’s account set forth in the Notice of Borrowing.
Section 2.3Optional Reduction and Termination of Loan Commitment. Upon three (3) Business Days’ written notice to the Agent signed by the Borrower, the Borrower may terminate the Loan Commitment, or permanently reduce the Loan Commitment to an amount not less than the then Outstanding Amount of all Loans, provided that each partial reduction of the Loan Commitment shall be in integral multiples of $1,000,000 or more (or such lesser amount as agreed by the Agent). 
Section 2.4Repayment of Loans. On the Maturity Date, the Borrower shall repay any of its Loans then outstanding in full and shall additionally pay to the Agent all other sums, if any, then owing or accrued by it under this Agreement. 
Section 2.5Prepayment. Upon three (3) Business Days’ (or such shorter period agreed by the Agent) written notice from a Borrower to the Agent, the Borrower may voluntarily prepay in whole or in part its Loans without premium or penalty.  Each such prepayment shall be accompanied by the payment of accrued interest to the date of such payment on the amount prepaid.  If an Application Event shall have occurred and be continuing, each such prepayment shall be applied in the manner set forth in Section 2.9(b).
Section 2.6Interest on Loans. 
(a)Each Loan shall accrue interest at the Loan Interest Rate. 
(b)The Borrower shall pay interest due and payable on its Loans in arrears on the first day of each month following the Closing Date. 
(c)While an Event of Default exists or after acceleration of the Loans in accordance with Article VI, at the option of the Agent or the Required Lenders, interest on the unpaid principal amount of the Loans of the Borrower (and any unpaid interest with respect thereto) will accrue at the Default Interest Rate (the “Default Interest”).  All Default Interest will be payable by the Borrower upon demand by the Agent or the Required Lenders.  
(d)Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, it is the parties’ intent not to contract for, charge or receive interest at a rate that is greater than the maximum rate permissible by law that a court of competent jurisdiction shall deem applicable hereto (which under the laws of the State of New York shall be deemed to be the laws relating to permissible rates of interest on commercial loans) (the “Maximum Rate”).  If a court of competent jurisdiction shall finally determine that Borrower has actually paid to the Lenders an amount of interest in excess of the amount that would have been payable if all of the Obligations had at all times borne interest at the Maximum Rate, then such excess interest actually paid by Borrower shall be applied as follows:  first, to the payment of the Obligations consisting of the outstanding principal; second, after all principal is repaid, to the payment of Lenders’ accrued interest, costs, expenses, professional fees and any other Obligations; and third, after all Obligations are repaid, the excess (if any) shall be refunded to Borrower.
Section 2.7Computation of Interest. All computations of interest shall be made by the Agent on the basis of a year of 360 days, in each case, for the actual number of days elapsed in the period during which the interest or fees accrue. Each determination by the Agent of an interest amount hereunder shall, except for manifest error, be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes.  In computing interest, the Closing Date shall be included and the date of payment shall be excluded. 
Section 2.8[Reserved]
Section 2.9Payments Generally.
(c)All payments by the Borrower to (i) any Lender hereunder shall be made to such Lender at such Lender’s Lender Account in immediately available funds without setoff or counterclaim and (ii) the payment shall be made to the Payment Office in immediately available funds without setoff or counterclaim. If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of the payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be made payable for the period of such extension. All payments hereunder shall be made in Dollars. 
(d)Apportionment and Application.
(1)So long as no Application Event has occurred and is continuing, all principal and interest payments made by the Borrower shall be paid ratably to the Lenders (according to the unpaid principal balance of the Obligations to which such payments relate held by each Lender) and all payments of fees and expenses made by the Borrower (other than fees or expenses that are for Agent’s separate account, which fees and expenses shall be paid to Agent) shall be paid ratably to each Lender according to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the type of commitment or Obligation to which a particular fee or expense relates.  All proceeds of any enforcement action received by Agent shall be applied, so long as no Application Event has occurred and is continuing and except as otherwise provided herein with respect to Defaulting Lenders, to be distributed to the Borrower or such other Person entitled thereto under applicable law.  If any Lender shall receive any amounts in respect of the Obligations at any time that an Application Event has occurred and is continuing, such Lender shall receive such amounts as trustee for Agent, and such Lender shall deliver any such amounts to Agent for application to the Obligations in accordance with Section 2.9(b)(2).

(2)At any time that an Application Event has occurred and is continuing and except as otherwise provided herein with respect to Defaulting Lenders, all payments remitted to Agent or any Lender and all proceeds of any enforcement action by Agent shall be applied as follows:

(i)first, to pay any expenses (including cost or expense reimbursements) or indemnities then due to Agent under the Loan Documents until paid in full,

(ii)second, ratably, to pay any fees or premiums then due to Agent and the Lenders under the Loan Documents until paid in full,

(iii)third, ratably to pay any expenses (including cost or expense reimbursements) or indemnities then due to any of the Lenders under the Loan Documents until paid in full,

(iv)fourth, to the extent not paid under clause (iii) above, ratably, to pay any fees or premiums then due to any of the Lenders under the Loan Documents until paid in full,

(v)fifth, to pay interest accrued in respect of the Loans, ratably, until paid in full, 

(vi)sixth, to pay the outstanding principal balance of the Loans (in the inverse order of the maturity of the installments due thereunder), ratably, until such Loans are paid in full,

(vii)seventh, to pay any other Obligations other than Obligations owed to Defaulting Lenders until paid in full;
 
(viii)eighth, ratably to pay any Obligations owed to Defaulting Lenders until paid in full; and
 
(ix)ninth, to the Borrower or such other Person entitled thereto under applicable law.

(3)Agent promptly shall distribute to each Lender, pursuant to the applicable wire instructions received from each Lender in writing, such funds as it may be entitled to receive.

(4)In each instance, so long as no Application Event has occurred and is continuing, Section 2.9(b)(2) shall not apply to any payment made by the Borrower to Agent and specified by the Borrower to be for the payment of specific Obligations then due and payable (or prepayable) under any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

(5)For purposes of Section 2.9(b)(2), “paid in full” of a type of Obligation means payment in cash or immediately available funds of all amounts owing on account of such type of Obligation, including interest accrued after the commencement of any Insolvency Proceeding, default interest, interest on interest, and expense reimbursements, irrespective of whether any of the foregoing would be or is allowed or disallowed in whole or in part in any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding.

(6)In the event of a direct conflict between the priority provisions of this Section 2.9(b) and any other provision contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, it is the intention of the parties hereto that such provisions be read together and construed, to the fullest extent possible, to be in concert with each other.

Section 2.10Taxes. Any and all payments by the Borrower under each Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future Taxes. If any Taxes shall be required by law to be deducted from or in respect of any sum payable under any Loan Document to any Lender, then the Borrower shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and the sum payable by the Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings of Taxes applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) any Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made. 
Section 2.11Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Lender determines that it is unlawful for such Lender to make Loans or to continue to fund or maintain Loans, 
then, on notice thereof and demand therefor by such Lender to the Borrower, (i) the obligation of such Lender to make or to continue Loans shall be suspended, and (ii) if Loans are then outstanding, the Borrower shall prepay such Loans within three (3) Business Days.
Section 2.12Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.9(b)(2), the Borrower shall make any payments that, but for this Section 2.12, would be due and payable to a Defaulting Lender, directly to Agent, and Agent shall not be obligated to transfer to a Defaulting Lender any payments made by the Borrower to Agent for the Defaulting Lender’s benefit or any proceeds of any enforcement action that would otherwise be remitted hereunder to the Defaulting Lender, and, in the absence of such transfer to the Defaulting Lender, Agent shall transfer any such payments (A) first, to each Non-Defaulting Lender ratably in accordance with their Pro Rata Share (but, in each case, only to the extent that such Defaulting Lender’s portion of the funding obligation was funded by such other Non-Defaulting Lender), (B) to a suspense account maintained by Agent, the proceeds of which shall be retained by Agent, and (C) from and after the date on which all other Obligations have been paid in full, to such Defaulting Lender in accordance with tier (I) of Section 2.9(b)(2).  Solely for the purposes of voting or consenting to matters with respect to the Loan Documents (including the calculation of Pro Rata Share in connection therewith), such Defaulting Lender shall be deemed not to be a “Lender” and such Lender’s Pro Rata Share shall be deemed to be zero.  The provisions of this Section 2.12 shall remain effective with respect to such Defaulting Lender until the earlier of (x) the date on which all of the Non-Defaulting Lenders, Agent, and the Borrower shall have waived, in writing, the application of this Section 2.12 to such Defaulting Lender, and (y) the date on which such Defaulting Lender makes payment of all amounts that it was obligated to fund hereunder, pays to Agent all amounts owing by Defaulting Lender in respect of the amounts that it was obligated to fund hereunder, and, if requested by Agent or the Borrower, provides adequate assurance of its ability to perform its future obligations hereunder.  The operation of this Section 2.12 shall not be construed to increase or otherwise affect the Loan Commitment of any Lender, to relieve or excuse the performance by such Defaulting Lender or any other Lender of its duties and obligations hereunder, or to relieve or excuse the performance by the Borrower of its duties and obligations hereunder to Agent or to the Lenders other than such Defaulting Lender.  Any failure by a Defaulting Lender to fund amounts that it was obligated to fund hereunder shall constitute a material breach by such Defaulting Lender of this Agreement.  In the event of a direct conflict between the priority provisions of this Section 2.12 and any other provision contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, it is the intention of the parties hereto that such provisions be read together and construed, to the fullest extent possible, to be in concert with each other.  In the event of any actual, irreconcilable conflict that cannot be resolved as aforesaid, the terms and provisions of this Section 2.12 shall control and govern.
Section 2.13Independent Obligations. It is understood that (i) no Lender shall be responsible for any failure by any other Lender to perform its obligation to make any Loan (or other extension of credit) hereunder, nor shall any Loan Commitment of any Lender be increased or decreased as a result of any failure by any other Lender to perform its obligations hereunder, and (ii) no failure by any Lender to perform its obligations hereunder shall excuse any other Lender from its obligations hereunder.
Section 2.14Maintenance of Loan Account; Statements of Obligations.  Agent shall maintain an account on its books in the name of the Borrower, (the “Loan Account”) on which the Borrower will be charged with the Loans, and with all other payment Obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, including accrued interest, premiums, if any, and fees and expenses.  The Loan Account will be credited with all payments received by Agent or any Lender from the Borrower or for the Borrower’s account.  Agent and/or the Lenders shall endeavor to provide statements regarding the Loan Account to the Borrower, including principal, interest, fees, and including an itemization of all charges and expenses constituting expenses payable under this Agreement (but neither Agent nor any Lender shall have any liability if Agent and/or the Lenders shall fail to provide any such statement), and such statements, absent manifest error, shall be conclusively presumed to be correct and accurate and constitute an account stated between the Borrower, on one hand, and the Agent and the Lenders, on the other, unless, within thirty (30) days after the Agent first makes such a statement available to the Borrower (or such longer period as Required Lenders may agree in their sole discretion), the Borrower shall deliver to the Agent and the Lenders written objection thereto describing the error or errors contained in any such statements.

Except as Agent may otherwise agree, any such assignment shall be in a minimum aggregate amount equal to one million dollars ($1,000,000) or, if less, the remaining Loan Commitments and Loans held by the assigning Lender.

Each such note shall be dated the effective date of such assignment. Upon receipt by Agent of such note(s), the assigning Lender shall return to Borrower any prior note held by it.

(2)The Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an Agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Loan Commitments of, and principal amounts of (and stated interest on) the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”).

Section 7.7Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Borrower herein and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement shall be considered to have been relied upon by the Agent and each Lender and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of the Loans. The provisions of Section 7.3 shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof.
Section 7.8Severability. Any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such illegality, invalidity or unenforceability without affecting the legality, validity or enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof or thereof; and the illegality, invalidity or unenforceability of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. 
Section 7.9VENUE; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. 
(a)THE BORROWER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY SUBMITS TO THE NON-EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE STATE AND FEDERAL COURTS LOCATED IN THE COUNTY OF PALM BEACH, STATE OF FLORIDA, IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENTS, OR FOR RECOGNITION OR ENFORCEMENT OF ANY JUDGMENT.  EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO AGREES THAT A FINAL JUDGMENT IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE CONCLUSIVE AND MAY BE ENFORCED IN OTHER JURISDICTIONS BY SUIT ON THE JUDGMENT OR IN ANY OTHER MANNER PROVIDED BY LAW.  NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT SHALL AFFECT ANY RIGHT THAT AGENT MAY OTHERWISE HAVE TO BRING ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT AGAINST THE BORROWER OR ITS PROPERTIES IN THE COURTS OF ANY JURISDICTION.
(b)TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE BORROWER, THE AGENT, AND EACH LENDER HEREBY WAIVES ANY SPECIAL, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES IN RESPECT OF ANY CLAIM FOR BREACH OF CONTRACT OR ANY OTHER THEORY OF LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT, OR ANY ACT, OMISSION, OR EVENT OCCURRING IN CONNECTION THEREWITH, AND THE BORROWER AND EACH LENDER HEREBY WAIVES, RELEASES, AND AGREES NOT TO SUE UPON ANY CLAIM FOR SUCH DAMAGES, WHETHER OR NOT ACCRUED AND WHETHER OR NOT KNOWN OR SUSPECTED TO EXIST IN ITS FAVOR.
(c)TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE BORROWER, THE AGENT, AND EACH LENDER HEREBY WAIVES THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHTS, IF ANY, TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM, CONTROVERSY, DISPUTE OR CAUSE OF ACTION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF ANY OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS OR ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED THEREIN, INCLUDING CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS, BREACH OF DUTY CLAIMS, AND ALL OTHER COMMON LAW OR STATUTORY CLAIMS (EACH A "CLAIM").  THE BORROWER, THE AGENT AND EACH LENDER REPRESENT THAT EACH HAS REVIEWED THIS WAIVER AND EACH KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVES ITS JURY TRIAL RIGHTS FOLLOWING CONSULTATION WITH LEGAL COUNSEL.  IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, A COPY OF THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE FILED AS A WRITTEN CONSENT TO A TRIAL BY THE COURT.
Section 7.10No Waivers; Cumulative Remedies. No failure by Agent or any Lender to exercise any right, remedy, or option under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or delay by 
Agent or any Lender in exercising the same, will operate as a waiver thereof.  No waiver by Agent or any Lender will be effective unless it is in writing, and then only to the extent specifically stated.  No waiver by Agent or any Lender on any occasion shall affect or diminish Agent’s and each Lender’s rights thereafter to require strict performance by the Borrower of any provision of this Agreement.  Agent’s and each Lender’s rights under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents will be cumulative and not exclusive of any other right or remedy that Agent or any Lender may have.

Article VIII
THE AGENT
Section 8.1Appointment and Authorization of Agent. Each Lender hereby designates and appoints AFC Finance, LLC as its Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and each Lender hereby irrevocably authorizes Agent to execute and deliver each of the other Loan Documents on its behalf, and to take such other action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and each other Loan Document and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to Agent by the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.  Agent agrees to act as Agent for and on behalf of the Lenders on the conditions contained in this Article VIII.  The provisions of this Article VIII are solely for the benefit of Agent, and the Lenders, and the Borrower shall not have any rights as a third party beneficiary of any of the provisions contained herein.  Any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document notwithstanding, Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein or in any other Loan Document, nor shall Agent have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the use of the term “Agent” in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents with reference to Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law.  Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only a representative relationship between independent contracting parties.  Except as expressly otherwise provided in this Agreement, Agent shall have and may use its sole discretion with respect to exercising or refraining from exercising any discretionary rights or taking or refraining from taking any actions that Agent expressly is entitled to take or assert under or pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, or of any other provision of the Loan Documents that provides rights or powers to Agent, Lenders agree that Agent shall have the right to exercise the following powers as long as this Agreement remains in effect:  (a) maintain, in accordance with its customary business practices, ledgers and records reflecting the status of the Obligations, the payments and proceeds of any enforcement action, and related matters, (b) execute or file any and all financing or similar statements or notices, amendments, renewals, supplements, documents, instruments, proofs of claim, notices and other written agreements with respect to the Loan Documents, (c) exclusively receive, apply, and distribute the payments and proceeds of any enforcement action, (d) open and maintain such bank accounts and cash management arrangements as Agent deems necessary and appropriate in accordance with the Loan Documents for the foregoing purposes, (e) perform, exercise, and enforce any and all other rights and remedies of the Lenders with respect to the Borrower, the Obligations, or otherwise related to any of same as provided in the Loan Documents, and (f) incur and pay such expenses as Agent may deem necessary or appropriate for the performance and fulfillment of its functions and powers pursuant to the Loan Documents.
Section 8.2Delegation of Duties. Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Loan Document by or through Agents, employees or attorneys in fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties.  Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any Agent or attorney in fact that it selects as long as such selection was made without gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct.
Section 8.3Liability of Agent. None of the Agent-Related Persons shall (a) be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions contemplated hereby (except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction pursuant to a final and nonappealable judgment), or (b) be responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recital, statement, representation or warranty made by the Borrower, or any officer or director thereof, contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for any failure of the Borrower or any other party to any Loan Document to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder.  No Agent-Related Persons shall be under any obligation to any Lenders to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or 
performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the books and records or properties of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries.
Section 8.4Reliance by Agent. Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile or other electronic method of transmission, or telephone message, statement or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent, or made by the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to the Borrower or counsel to any Lender), independent accountants and other experts selected by Agent.  Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless Agent shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders (or, to the extent required by Section 7.4(a), all Lenders).  If Agent so requests, it shall first be indemnified to its reasonable satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action.  Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document in accordance with a request or consent of the Required Lenders and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all of the Lenders (except as otherwise required by Section 7.4(a)).
Section 8.5Notice of Default or Event of Default. Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest, fees, and expenses required to be paid to Agent for the account of the Lenders and, except with respect to Events of Default of which Agent has actual knowledge, unless Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender or a Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default, and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.”  Agent promptly will notify the Lenders of its receipt of any such notice or of any Event of Default of which Agent has actual knowledge.  If any Lender obtains actual knowledge of any Event of Default, such Lender promptly shall notify the other Lenders and Agent of such Event of Default.  Each Lender shall be solely responsible for giving any notices to its Participants, if any.  Subject to Section 8.4, Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as may be requested by the Required Lenders in accordance with Article VI.
Section 8.6Credit Decision. Each Lender acknowledges that none of the Agent-Related Persons has made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by Agent hereinafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Borrower or its Affiliates, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent-Related Person to any Lender.  Each Lender represents to Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such due diligence documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower or any other Person party to a Loan Document, and all applicable bank regulatory laws relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit to the Borrower.  Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower or any other Person party to a Loan Document.  Except for notices, reports, and other documents expressly herein required to be furnished to the Lenders by Agent, Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of the Borrower or any other Person party to a Loan Document that may come into the possession of any of the Agent-Related Persons. Each Lender acknowledges that Agent does not have any duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis (except to the extent, if any, that is expressly specified herein) to provide such Lender with any credit or other information with respect to the Borrower, its Affiliates or any of their respective business, legal, financial or other affairs, and irrespective of whether such information came into Agent’s or its Affiliates’ or representatives’ possession before or after the date on which such Lender became a party to this Agreement.
Section 8.7Costs and Expenses; Indemnification. Agent may incur and pay expenses payable under this Agreement to the extent Agent reasonably deems necessary or appropriate for the performance and fulfillment of its functions, powers, and obligations pursuant to the Loan Documents, including court costs, reasonable attorneys fees and expenses, fees and expenses of financial accountants, advisors, consultants, and appraisers, costs of collection by outside collection agencies, auctioneer fees and expenses, and costs of security guards or insurance premiums paid to secure the rights of the Agent and the Lenders hereunder, whether or not the Borrower is obligated to reimburse Agent or Lenders for such expenses pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise.  Agent is authorized and directed to deduct and retain sufficient amounts from the payments or proceeds of any enforcement action received by Agent to reimburse Agent for such reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses prior to the distribution of any amounts to Lenders.  In the event Agent is not reimbursed for such costs and expenses by the Borrower, each Lender hereby agrees that it is and shall be obligated to pay to Agent such Lender’s Pro Rata Share thereof.  Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, each of the Lenders, on a ratable basis, shall indemnify and defend the Agent-Related Persons (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so) from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities; provided that no Lender shall be liable for the payment to any Agent-Related Person of any portion of such Indemnified Liabilities resulting solely from such Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction pursuant to a final and nonappealable judgment.  Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender shall reimburse Agent upon demand for such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of any costs or out of pocket expenses (including attorneys, accountants, advisors, and consultants fees and expenses) incurred by Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment, or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, to the extent that Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of the Borrower.  The undertaking in this Section shall survive the payment of all Obligations hereunder and the resignation or replacement of Agent.
Section 8.8Agent in Individual Capacity. AFC Finance, LLC and its Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from, acquire Stock in, and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting, or other business with the Borrower or its Affiliates and any other Person party to any Loan Documents as though AFC Finance, LLC were not Agent hereunder, and, in each case, without notice to or consent of the Lenders.  The Lenders acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, AFC Finance, LLC or its Affiliates may receive information regarding the Borrower or its Affiliates or any other Person party to any Loan Document that is subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of the Borrower or such other Person and that prohibit the disclosure of such information to the Lenders, and the Lenders acknowledge that, in such circumstances (and in the absence of a waiver of such confidentiality obligations, which waiver Agent will use its reasonable best efforts to obtain), Agent shall not be under any obligation to provide such information to them. 
Section 8.9Successor Agent. Agent may resign as Agent upon thirty (30) days (ten (10) days if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing) prior written notice to the Lenders (unless such notice is waived by the Required Lenders), the Borrower (unless such notice is waived by the Borrower).  If Agent resigns under this Agreement, the Required Lenders shall be entitled to appoint a successor Agent for the Lenders.  If no successor Agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of Agent, the Required Lenders shall act as Agent until they appoint a successor Agent.  If Agent has materially breached or failed to perform any material provision of this Agreement or of applicable law, the Required Lenders may agree in writing to remove and replace Agent with a successor Agent from among the Lenders; provided that, solely for purposes of this fourth sentence of Section 8.9, “Required Lenders” shall be deemed to exclude the current Agent in its capacity as a Lender and any Lender that is an Affiliate of such current Agent.  In any such event, upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor Agent hereunder, such successor Agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers, and duties of the retiring Agent and the term “Agent” shall mean such successor Agent and the retiring Agent’s appointment, powers, and duties as Agent shall be terminated.  After any retiring Agent’s resignation hereunder as Agent, the provisions of this Article VIII shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent under this Agreement.  If no successor Agent has accepted appointment as Agent by the date which is thirty (30) days following a retiring Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and the 
Required Lenders shall perform all of the duties of Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Agent as provided for above.
Section 8.10Lender in Individual Capacity. Any Lender and its respective Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from, acquire Stock in and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting, or other business with the Borrower or its Affiliates and any other Person party to any Loan Documents as though such Lender were not a Lender hereunder without notice to or consent of the other Lenders.  The other Lenders acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, such Lender and its respective Affiliates may receive information regarding the Borrower or its Affiliates and any other Person party to any Loan Documents that is subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of the Borrower or such other Person and that prohibit the disclosure of such information to the Lenders, and the Lenders acknowledge that, in such circumstances (and in the absence of a waiver of such confidentiality obligations, which waiver such Lender will use its reasonable best efforts to obtain), such Lender shall not be under any obligation to provide such information to them.  
Section 8.11Withholding Taxes.
(a)Payments Free of Taxes.  Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law.  If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a withholding Agent, then the applicable withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the applicable Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.
(b)Payment of Other Taxes by Borrower.  The Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of the Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any other Taxes.
(c)Indemnification by Borrower.  The Borrower shall, jointly and severally, indemnify each Lender, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by such Lender or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Lender and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Agent), or by the Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
(d)Indemnification by the Lenders.  Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrower has not already indemnified the Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 14.1(b) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  Each Lender hereby authorizes the Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Agent under this paragraph (d).
(e)Evidence of Payments.  As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section, the Borrower shall deliver to the Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Agent.
(f)Status of Lenders.   Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding.  In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in paragraphs (f)(1)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) of this Section) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.
(1)Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that the Borrower is a U.S. Person,

(i)any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the Agent on or about the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Agent), executed copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;

(ii)any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the Recipient) on or about the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:

(A)in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;

(B)executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI;

(C)in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the IRC, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit C-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the IRC, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the IRC, or a “controlled foreign corporation” related to the Borrower as described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the IRC (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E; or

(D)to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, IRS Form W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit C-2 or Exhibit C-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit C-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;

(i)any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the Recipient) on or about the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Agent), executed copies of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower or the Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and

(ii)if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied in all material respects with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount, if any, to deduct and withhold from such payment.  Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and e Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.
(a)Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund).  Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (g) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (g), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (g) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid.  This paragraph shall not 
be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.
(b)Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Loan Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.
Section 8.12[Reserved]. 
Section 8.13Restrictions on Actions by Lenders; Sharing of Payments. 
(c)Each of the Lenders agrees that it shall not, without the express written consent of the Required Lenders, and that it shall, to the extent it is lawfully entitled to do so, upon the written request of the Required Lenders, set off against the Obligations, any amounts owing by such Lender to the Borrower or any deposit accounts of the Borrower now or hereafter maintained with such Lender.
(d)If, at any time or times any Lender shall receive (i) by payment, setoff, or otherwise, any payments with respect to the Obligations, except for any such proceeds or payments received by such Lender from the Borrower pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, or (ii) payments in excess of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of all such amounts, such Lender promptly shall (A) turn the same over to Agent or other Lenders, as applicable, in kind, and with such endorsements as may be required to negotiate the same to Agent or the other Lenders, as applicable, or in immediately available funds, as applicable, for application to the Obligations in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement, or (B) purchase, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in the Obligations owed to the other Lenders so that such excess payment received shall be applied ratably as among the Lenders in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares; provided, however, that to the extent that such excess payment received by the purchasing party is thereafter recovered from it, those purchases of participations shall be rescinded in whole or in part, as applicable, and the applicable portion of the purchase price paid therefor shall be returned to such purchasing party, but without interest except to the extent that such purchasing party is required to pay interest in connection with the recovery of the excess payment.
Section 8.14[Reserved]. 
Section 8.15Payments by Agent to the Lenders. All payments to be made by Agent to the Lenders shall be made by bank wire transfer of immediately available funds pursuant to such wire transfer instructions as each party may designate for itself by written notice to Agent.  Concurrently with each such payment, Agent shall identify whether such payment (or any portion thereof) represents principal, premium, fees, or interest of the Obligations.
Section 8.16Concerning the Loan Documents. Each Lender authorizes and directs Agent to enter into this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.  Each Lender agrees that any action taken by Agent in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents relating to the exercise by Agent of its powers set forth therein or herein, together with such other powers that are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be binding upon all of the Lenders.
Section 8.17Several Obligations; No Liability. Notwithstanding that certain of the Loan Documents now or hereafter may have been or will be executed only by or in favor of Agent in its capacity as such, and not by or in favor of the Lenders, any and all obligations on the part of the Lenders to make any credit available hereunder shall constitute the several (and not joint) obligations of the respective Lenders on a ratable basis, according to their respective portion of the Loan Commitment, to make an amount of such credit not to exceed, in principal amount, at any one time outstanding, the amount at such time of their respective portion of the Loan Commitment.  The amounts payable at any time hereunder to each Lender shall be a separate and independent debt, and each Lender shall be entitled to protect and enforce its rights arising out hereof and it shall not be necessary for any other Lender to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.  Nothing contained herein shall confer upon any Lender any interest in, or subject any Lender to any liability for, or in respect of, the business, 
assets, profits, losses, or liabilities of any other Lender.  Nothing contained herein or in any other Loan Document, and no action taken by Lenders pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute Lenders as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity.  Each Lender shall be solely responsible for notifying its Participants of any matters relating to the Loan Documents to the extent any such notice may be required, and no Lender shall have any obligation, duty, or liability to any Participant of any other Lender.  Except as provided in Section 8.7, no Lender shall have any liability for the acts of any other Lender.  No Lender shall be responsible to the Borrower or any other Person for any failure by any other Lender to fulfill its obligations to make credit available hereunder, nor to advance for it or on its behalf, nor to take any other action on its behalf hereunder or in connection with the financing contemplated herein.  
Section 8.18Election of Remedies.  Notwithstanding anything herein or in any other Loan Documents, all enforcement actions, or the election to take or not to take any enforcement action, is solely at the direction of the AFC Lenders so long as the AFC Lenders have or hold any amount of the Loan Commitment or any Loan (or other extension of credit hereunder or under any Loan Document), or are due any other Obligation.

    FORWARD PURCHASE AGREEMENT

     

    This Forward Purchase Agreement (this “Agreement”) is entered into as of July 4,
        2022, by and among Health Sciences Acquisitions Corporation 2, a Cayman Islands exempted company (which shall deregister in the Cayman Islands and domesticate as a Delaware corporation prior to the Merger Closing, “Parent”), Orchestra
        BioMed, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Covidien Group S.à.r.l. (the “Purchasing Party”). Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in that certain
        Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of the date of this Agreement, by and among Parent, the Company and HSAC Olympus Merger Sub, Inc. (the “Merger Agreement”).

     

    WHEREAS, in connection with the Closing under the Merger Agreement (the “Merger Closing”),

        the Purchasing Party wishes to purchase, up to 1,000,000 Parent Ordinary Shares on the terms and conditions set forth herein; and

     

    NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises, representations, warranties and the
        mutual covenants contained in this Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt, sufficiency and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

     

    1.           Forward Purchase Shares. Parent shall issue and sell to the Purchasing
        Party, and the Purchasing Party shall purchase from Parent, a number of Parent Ordinary Shares (the “Forward Purchase Shares”) equal to (a) (i) $10,000,000 minus (ii) the aggregate dollar amount paid by the Purchasing Party to
        purchase Parent Ordinary Shares having redemption rights following the date hereof until immediately prior to the Share Purchase Closing that the Purchasing Party continues to directly own at such time (the “Market Transaction Shares”),
        divided by (b) $10.00 (the “Per Share Price”). For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall the aggregate amount of funds received by Parent in respect of the Forward Purchase Shares, when taken together with funds that continue to be held
        in the Trust Account at the Merger Closing in respect of the Market Transaction Shares, be less than $10,000,000.

     

    2.           Share Purchase Closing.

     

    (a)         Closing. Subject to Section 7, the closing of the sale of the
        Forward Purchase Shares, if any (the “Share Purchase Closing”), shall be held on the Closing Date, immediately prior to the Domestication. At the Share Purchase Closing, Parent will issue to the Purchasing Party the Forward Shares against
        (and concurrently with) the payment to Parent by the Purchasing Party of an amount equal to the product of (i) the number of Forward Purchase Shares, multiplied by (ii) the Per Share Price. All payments required to be made to Parent by the
        Purchasing Party pursuant to this Section 2(a) shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds pursuant to written instructions provided by Parent to the Purchasing Party.

     

    (b)         Delivery of Forward Purchase Shares.

     

    (i)       Parent shall register the Purchasing Party as the owner of the Forward Purchase
        Shares on Parent’s share register and with Parent’s transfer agent by book entry on or promptly after (but in no event more than two (2) Business Days after) the date of the Share Purchase Closing.

     

    (ii)       Each register and book entry for the Forward Purchase Shares shall contain a
        notation, and each certificate (if any) evidencing the Forward Purchase Shares shall be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend, in substantially the following form:

     

    “THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS
        AMENDED, OR THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE OR OTHER JURISDICTION, AND MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED IN VIOLATION OF SUCH ACT AND LAWS.

     

    (c)         In connection with sales permitted pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the
        Exchange Act, if required by Parent’s transfer agent, Parent will promptly cause an opinion of counsel to be delivered to its transfer agent, together with any other authorizations, certificates and directions required by the transfer agent that
        authorize and direct the transfer agent to transfer such Forward Purchase Shares without any such legend.

     

    
       

      
        
 

    

     

    (d)       Registration Rights. The Purchasing Party shall have registration rights
        with respect to their Forward Purchase Shares as set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement that will be entered into by and among Parent, the Purchasing Party, the Company and certain other parties thereto in connection with the consummation
        of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement (the “Transactions”) and the form of which is attached to the Merger Agreement as Exhibit C (the “Registration Rights Agreement”).

     

    (e)       Adjustments to Notional Amounts. In the event of any change to the capital
        structure of Parent, whether dilutive or otherwise, by way of a share dividend, share split, or any other similar transaction however described, the number of Forward Purchase Shares, and/or the Per Share Price, as applicable, will be adjusted as
        necessary to account for such changes.

     

    3.           Representations and Warranties of the Purchasing Party. The Purchasing
        Party represents and warrants, severally and not jointly, to each of Parent and the Company as follows:

     

    (a)       Organization and Power. The Purchasing Party is duly organized, validly
        existing, and in good standing under the Laws of the jurisdiction of its formation and has all requisite power and authority to carry on its business as presently conducted and as proposed to be conducted.

     

    (b)       Authorization. The Purchasing Party has full power and authority to enter
        into this Agreement. This Agreement, when executed and delivered by the Purchasing Party, will constitute the valid and legally binding obligation of Purchasing Party, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except (i) as limited by applicable
        bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance and any other Laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, (ii) as limited by Laws relating to the availability of specific performance,
        injunctive relief or other equitable remedies, or (iii) to the extent the indemnification provisions contained in the Registration Rights Agreement may be limited by applicable federal or state securities Laws.

     

    (c)       Governmental Consents and Filings. No consent, approval, order or
        authorization of, or registration, qualification, designation, declaration or filing with, any federal, state or local governmental authority is required on the part of the Purchasing Party in connection with the consummation of the transactions
        contemplated by this Agreement.

     

    (d)       Compliance with Other Instruments. The execution, delivery and performance
        by the Purchasing Party of this Agreement and the consummation by the Purchasing Party of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement will not result in any violation or default (i) of any provisions of its organizational documents, (ii) of any
        instrument, judgment, order, writ or decree to which it is a party or by which it is bound, (iii) under any note, indenture or mortgage to which it is a party or by which it is bound, (iv) under any lease, agreement, contract or purchase order to
        which it is a party or by which it is bound or (v) of any provision of federal or state statute, rule or regulation applicable to the Purchasing Party, in each case (other than clause (i)), which would have a material adverse effect on the
        Purchasing Party or its ability to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

     

    (e)       Purchase Entirely for Own Account. This Agreement is made with the
        Purchasing Party in reliance upon the Purchasing Party’s representation to Parent, which by the Purchasing Party’s execution of this Agreement, the Purchasing Party hereby confirms, that the Forward Purchase Shares to be acquired by the Purchasing
        Party will be acquired for investment for the Purchasing Party’s own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the resale or distribution of any part thereof, and that the Purchasing Party has no present intention of selling,
        granting any participation in, or otherwise distributing the same in violation of Law. By executing this Agreement, the Purchasing Party further represents that the Purchasing Party does not presently have any contract, undertaking, agreement or
        arrangement with any Person to sell, transfer or grant participations to such Person or to any third Person, with respect to any of the Forward Purchase Shares.

    (g)       Restricted Forward Purchase Shares. The Purchasing Party understands that
        the offer and sale of the Forward Purchase Shares to the Purchasing Party has not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act, by reason of a specific exemption from the registration provisions of the Securities Act which depends
        upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of the investment intent and the accuracy of the Purchasing Party’s representations as expressed herein. The Purchasing Party understands that the Forward Purchase Shares are “restricted securities”
        under applicable U.S. federal and state securities Laws and that, pursuant to these Laws, the Purchasing Party must hold the Forward Purchase Shares indefinitely unless they are registered with the SEC and qualified by state authorities, or an
        exemption from such registration and qualification requirements is available. The Purchasing Party acknowledges that Parent has no obligation to register or qualify the Forward Purchase Shares, or any securities into which the Forward Purchase
        Shares may be converted into or exercised for, for resale, except pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement. The Purchasing Party further acknowledges that if an exemption from registration or qualification is available, it may be conditioned
        on various requirements including, but not limited to, the time and manner of sale, the holding period for the Forward Purchase Shares, and on requirements relating to Parent which are outside of the Purchasing Party’s control, and which Parent is
        under no obligation and may not be able to satisfy.

     

    (h)       High Degree of Risk. The Purchasing Party understands that its agreement to
        purchase the Forward Purchase Shares involves a high degree of risk, which could cause the Purchasing Party to lose all or part of its investment.

     

    (i)       Accredited Investor. The Purchasing Party is an “accredited investor” as
        defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act.

     

    (j)       No General Solicitation. Neither the Purchasing Party, nor any of its
        officers, directors, employees, agents, stockholders or partners has either directly or indirectly, including, through a broker or finder (i) to its knowledge, engaged in any general solicitation, or (ii) published any advertisement in connection
        with the purchase and sale of the Forward Purchase Shares.

     

    (k)       Non-Public Information. The Purchasing Party acknowledges its obligations
        under applicable securities Laws with respect to the treatment of material non-public information relating to Parent.

     

    (l)       Adequacy of Financing. The Purchasing Party will have at the Share Purchase
        Closing available to it sufficient funds to satisfy its obligations under this Agreement.

     

    (m)       Affiliation of Certain FINRA Members. The Purchasing Party is neither a
        person associated nor affiliated with any underwriter of the IPO or, to its actual knowledge, any other member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) that participated in the IPO.

     

    (n)       No Finder’s Fees. The Purchasing Party is not and will not be obligated for
        any finder’s fee or commission in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

     

    (o)        Foreign Corrupt Practices. Neither the Purchasing Party, nor any director,
        officer, agent, employee or other Person acting on behalf of the Purchasing Party has, in the course of its actions for, or on behalf of, the Purchasing Party (i) used any corporate funds for any unlawful contribution, gift, entertainment or other
        unlawful expenses relating to political activity; (ii) made any direct or indirect unlawful payment to any foreign or domestic government official or employee from corporate funds; (iii) violated or is in violation of any provision of the U.S.
        Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended; or (iv) made any unlawful bribe, rebate, payoff, influence payment, kickback or other unlawful payment to any foreign or domestic government official or employee.

     

    
       

      
        
 

    

     

    (p)          Compliance with Anti-Money Laundering Laws. The operations of the
        Purchasing Party are and have been conducted at all times in compliance with applicable financial recordkeeping and reporting requirements and all other applicable U.S. and non-U.S. anti-money laundering Laws and regulations, including, but not
        limited to, those of the Currency and Foreign Transactions Reporting Act of 1970, as amended, the USA PATRIOT Act of 2001 and the applicable money laundering statutes of all applicable jurisdictions, the rules and regulations thereunder and any
        related or similar rules, regulations or guidelines, issued, administered or enforced by any governmental agency (collectively, the “Anti-Money Laundering Laws”), and no action, suit or proceeding by or before any court or governmental
        agency, authority or body or any arbitrator involving the Purchasing Party with respect to the Anti-Money Laundering Laws is pending or, to the knowledge of the Purchasing Party, threatened.

     

    (q)          No Other Representations and Warranties; Non-Reliance. Except for the
        specific representations and warranties contained in this Section 3 and in any certificate or agreement delivered pursuant hereto, none of the Purchasing Party nor any person acting on behalf of the Purchasing Party nor any of the
        Purchasing Party’s affiliates (“Purchasing Party Group”) has made, makes or shall be deemed to make any other express or implied representation or warranty with respect to the Purchasing Party or the purchase and sale of the Forward Purchase
        Shares, and the Purchasing Party disclaim any such representation or warranty. Except for the specific representations and warranties expressly made by (i) Parent in Section 4 of this Agreement and in any certificate or agreement delivered
        pursuant hereto and (ii) the Company in Section 5 of this Agreement, the Purchasing Party Group specifically disclaims that it is relying upon any other representations or warranties that may have been made by Parent, any person on behalf of Parent
        or any of Parent’s affiliates (collectively, the “Parent Parties”).

        irrevocably and unconditionally agrees not to redeem, elect to redeem or tender or submit any Subject Securities in connection with (i) the Merger or any other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement or (ii) any proposal to amend Parent’s
        organizational documents to extend the period of time that Parent is afforded thereunder and its prospectus to consummate an initial business combination, including any vote at any meeting of the shareholders of Parent (whether annual or special
        and whether or not an adjourned or postponed meeting however called and including any adjournment or postponement thereof) or any action by written resolution of the shareholders of Parent with respect to the foregoing, and any attempt to redeem
        such Subject Securities will be void ab initio and of no effect. For purposes of this Agreement, “Subject Securities” means all of Purchasing Party’s Parent Ordinary Shares and any other equity securities of Parent that the
        Purchasing Party holds of record or beneficially as of the date of this Agreement or acquires record or beneficial ownership after the date hereof, including any (i) Market Transaction Shares and (ii) Parent Warrants or other securities convertible

    (c)          Amendments; No Waivers; Remedies.

     

    (i)       This Agreement cannot be amended, except by a writing signed by each party, and
        cannot be terminated orally or by course of conduct. No provision hereof can be waived, except by a writing signed by the party against whom such waiver is to be enforced, and any such waiver shall apply only in the particular instance in which
        such waiver shall have been given.

     

    (ii)       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 from enforcing any right or remedy or from requiring satisfaction of any condition. No notice to or demand on a party waives
        or otherwise affects any obligation of that party or impairs any right of the party 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.

     

    (iii)       Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, no statement herein of any right
        or remedy shall impair any other right or remedy stated herein or that otherwise may be available.

     

    (d)          No Assignment or Delegation. No party may assign any right or delegate
        any obligation hereunder, including by merger, consolidation, operation of law or otherwise, without the written consent of the other parties to this Agreement. Any purported assignment or delegation without such consent shall be void, in addition
        to constituting a material breach of this Agreement.

     

    
       

      
        
 

    

     

    (e)          Governing Law. This Agreement and all disputes or controversies arising
        out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, including the applicable statute of limitations, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the Laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any
        choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (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.

     

    (f)          Counterparts; Facsimile Signatures. This Agreement may be executed in
        counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which shall constitute one agreement. This Agreement shall become effective upon delivery to each party of an executed counterpart or the earlier delivery to each party of
        original, photocopied, or electronically transmitted signature pages that together (but need not individually) bear the signatures of all other parties.

     

    (g)          Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the agreements referenced
        herein, sets forth the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous understandings and agreements related thereto (whether written or oral), all of which are
        merged herein. No provision of this Agreement may be explained or qualified by any agreement, negotiations, understanding, discussion, conduct or course of conduct or by any trade usage. Except as otherwise expressly stated herein, there is no
        condition precedent to the effectiveness of any provision hereof or thereof.

     

    (h)          Severability. A determination by a court or other legal authority that
        any provision that is not of the essence of this Agreement is legally invalid shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision hereof. The parties shall cooperate in good faith to substitute (or cause such court or other legal
        authority to substitute) for any provision so held to be invalid a valid provision, as alike in substance to such invalid provision as is lawful.

     

    (i)          Construction. The parties hereto have participated jointly in the
        negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. If an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement will be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties hereto and no presumption or burden of proof will arise favoring or
        disfavoring any party hereto because of the authorship of any provision of this Agreement. Any reference to any federal, state, local or foreign Law will be deemed also to refer to Law as amended and all rules and regulations promulgated
        thereunder, unless the context requires otherwise. The words “include,” “includes” and “including” will be deemed to be followed by “without limitation.” Pronouns in masculine, feminine, and neuter genders will be
        construed to include any other gender, and words in the singular form will be construed to include the plural and vice versa, unless the context otherwise requires. The words “this Agreement,” “herein,” “hereof,” “hereby,”

        “hereunder” and words of similar import refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular subdivision unless expressly so limited. The parties hereto intend that each representation, warranty and covenant contained herein will
        have independent significance. If any party hereto has breached any representation, warranty or covenant contained herein in any respect, the fact that there exists another representation, warranty or covenant relating to the same subject matter
        (regardless of the relative levels of specificity) which such party hereto has not breached will not detract from or mitigate the fact that such party hereto is in breach of the first representation, warranty or covenant.

     

    
       

      
        
 

    

     

    (j)          Remedies. 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 a party hereto, and the exercise by a party of any one remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other
        remedy. The parties agree that irreparable damage for which monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy would occur in the event that the parties do not perform their respective obligations under the provisions of this
        Agreement (including failing to take such actions as are required of them hereunder to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) in accordance with their specific terms or otherwise breach such provisions. It is accordingly agreed
        that the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement, in each case, without
        posting a bond or undertaking and without proof of damages and this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity. Each of the parties agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific
        performance and other equitable relief when expressly available pursuant to the terms of this Agreement on the basis that the other parties have an adequate remedy at law or an award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any
        reason at law or equity.
