Item 1.01  Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

Merger Agreement

 

On June 3, 2021, Alkuri Global Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among the Company, Babylon Holdings Limited, a company limited by shares incorporated under the laws of Jersey with registered number 115471 (“Babylon” or, following the closing of the Business Combination, “Pubco”), Liberty USA Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Merger Sub”), and, solely for purposes of Section 1.08 of the Merger Agreement, each of Alkuri Sponsors LLC (the “Sponsor”) and Dr. Ali Parsadoust. The Merger Agreement was unanimously approved by the Company’s board of directors on June 2, 2021. If the Merger Agreement is approved by the Company’s shareholders, and the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement are consummated, Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company, with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Babylon (the “Business Combination”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, each share of Company common stock (excluding shares held in treasury by the Company) will be automatically converted into the right to receive one (1) Class A ordinary shares (the “Pubco Class A Shares”) of Pubco.

 

The Business Combination implies a $4.2 billion post-closing equity value and a current equity value of Babylon at $3.515 billion, and prior to the closing of the Business Combination (the “Closing”), each outstanding share of Babylon will be reclassified into Pubco Class A Shares, other than the existing Babylon Class A Shares, which will be reclassified as Class B ordinary shares (the “Pubco Class B Shares”) of Pubco. As a result of the reclassification, each outstanding Pubco Class A Share and Pubco Class B Share will have a value at the time of the Business Combination of $10.00 (based on the $3.515 billion equity value of Babylon). At the Closing, the Pubco Class B shares will be held by Dr. Ali Parasdoust, ALP Partners Limited, Parsa Family Foundation (collectively, the “Founder”) or a founder permitted transferee. The Pubco Class B shares will have the same economic terms as the Pubco Class A shares, but the Pubco Class B shares will have 15 votes per share (while each Pubco Class A Share will have 1 vote per share).

 

In addition, in connection with the Closing, the Company will issue at the closing (i) to the Founder, 38,800,000 Pubco Class B Shares (the “Stockholder Earnout Shares”) and (ii) to the Sponsor, 1,293,750 Pubco Class A shares that the Sponsor would otherwise receive as consideration for the Merger (the “Sponsor Earnout Shares” and together with the Stockholder Earnout Shares, the “Earnout Shares”). The Earnout Shares will be subject to milestones (based on the achievement of certain price targets of Pubco Class A shares following the Closing). In the event such milestones are not met, all of the Earnout Shares will be automatically converted into redeemable shares of Pubco which Pubco can redeem for $1.00.

 

Conditions to Closing

 

The Closing is subject to certain customary conditions, including, among other things, (i) approval by the Company’s stockholders of the Merger Agreement, (ii) receipt by the Company and Babylon of reasonably satisfactory evidence that Babylon will qualify as a foreign private issuer, and (iii) the expiration or termination of the waiting period applicable under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976. In addition, Closing is subject to the conditions that the Company has at least $5,000,001 of net tangible assets (as determined in accordance with Rule 3a51-1(g)(1) under the Exchange Act) immediately prior to the consummation of the Merger.

 

In addition, Babylon’s obligations to consummate the Closing are subject to a condition that the Company will, after giving effect to any redemption obligations, delivered cash at the closing (including from the Subscription Agreements, which are discussed further below) in an amount that equals or exceeds $230,000,000.

 

Representations, Warranties and Covenants

 

The parties to the Merger Agreement have made representations, warranties and covenants that are customary for transactions of this nature.

 

Termination

 

The Merger Agreement may be terminated by either Babylon or the Company under certain circumstances, including, among others, (i) by written consent of both Babylon and the Company, (ii) by either Babylon or the Company if the closing of the Business Combination has not occurred on or before December 3, 2021 (though either Babylon or the Company may extend such date by an additional three months as long as the parties are continuing to work in good faith to close the Business Combination expeditiously by delivering written notice to the other party), and (iii) by Babylon or the Company if the Company has held a stockholder meeting to approve the Business Combination and the Business Combination has not been obtained by the requisite stockholders of the Company.

 

The foregoing description of the Merger Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 2.1 and is incorporated herein by reference. The Merger Agreement contains representations, warranties and covenants that the parties to the Merger Agreement made to each other as of the date of the Merger Agreement or other specific dates. The assertions embodied in those representations, warranties and covenants were made for purposes of the contract among the parties and are subject to important qualifications and limitations agreed to by the parties in connection with negotiating the Merger Agreement. The Merger Agreement has been attached to provide investors with information regarding its terms and is not intended to provide any other factual information about the Company, Babylon or any other party to the Merger Agreement. In particular, the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained in the Merger Agreement, which were made only for purposes of the Merger Agreement and as of specific dates, were solely for the benefit of the parties to the Merger Agreement (other than as expressly provided for in the Merger Agreement), may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties (including being qualified by confidential disclosures made for the purposes of allocating contractual risk between the parties to the Merger Agreement instead of establishing these matters as facts) and may be subject to standards of materiality applicable to the contracting parties that differ from those applicable to investors and reports and documents filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Investors should not rely on the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements, or any descriptions thereof, as characterizations of the actual state of facts or condition of any party to the Merger Agreement. In addition, the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements and other terms of the Merger Agreement may be subject to subsequent waiver or modification. Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of the representations and warranties and other terms may change after the date of the Merger Agreement, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in the Company’s public disclosures.

 

 

 

 

Subscription Agreements

 

Additionally, the Company and Babylon entered into subscription agreements (collectively, the “Subscription Agreements”), each dated as of June 3, 2021, with certain investors (collectively, the “PIPE Investors”), pursuant to which, among other things, Babylon agreed to issue and sell, in private placements to close immediately prior to the Closing, an aggregate of 23,000,000 Pubco Class A shares for $10 per share. The PIPE Investment will be consummated substantially concurrently with the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, subject to the terms and conditions contemplated by the Subscription Agreements, including the consummation of the Business Combination.

 

Entities affiliated with the Sponsor have agreed to purchase 1,300,000 Pubco Class A Shares pursuant to a Subscription Agreement on substantially the same terms and conditions as the other PIPE Investors. Entities affiliated with Dr. Ali Parsadoust have agreed to purchase 200,000 Pubco Class A Shares pursuant to a Subscription Agreement on substantially the same terms and conditions as the other PIPE Investors. Entities affiliated with VNV Global AB and Kinnevik AB have each agreed to purchase 500,000 Pubco Class A Shares pursuant to Subscription Agreements on substantially the same terms and conditions as the other PIPE Investors.

 

As of the date hereof, issuance or sale of the Pubco Class A Shares in connection with the Subscription Agreements has not been registered under the Securities Act. The Company has agreed, within 15 calendar days of Closing to file with the SEC a registration statement registering the resale of such Pubco Class A Shares and will use its best efforts to have such registration statement declared effective as soon as practicable after the filing thereof, but in any event no later than the earlier of (i) sixty (60) calendar days (or ninety (90) calendar days if the SEC notifies the Company that it will “review” the registration statement) following the Closing and (ii) the tenth (10th) business day after the date the Company is notified (in writing) by the SEC that the registration statement will not be “reviewed” or will not be subject to further review.

In connection with the Company’s entrance into the Merger Agreement, it also entered into a Sponsor Agreement Amendment (the “Sponsor Agreement”) with the Sponsor and certain of the Company’s officers and members of the Company’s board of directors (the “Insiders”), pursuant to which, among other things, the Sponsor and the Insiders will agree to vote any of the Company’s shares of common stock held by them in favor of the Business Combination and to not redeem any such shares at the special meeting of stockholders to be held in connection with the Business Combination.

This Current Report on Form 8-K contains, and certain oral statements made by representatives of Babylon and the Company and their respective affiliates, from time to time may contain, a number of “forward-looking statements” as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

1.01         The Merger.

 

(a)            Subject to the terms and conditions hereof and in accordance with the applicable provisions of the DGCL, on the Closing Date, Merger Sub will merge with and into the SPAC (the “Merger”) at the Effective Time, whereupon the separate existence of Merger Sub will cease, and the SPAC will continue as the surviving company (the “Surviving Company”).

 

(b)            At the Closing, the Merger shall be consummated in accordance with this Agreement and the DGCL and evidenced by a certificate of merger between Merger Sub and the SPAC (the “Certificate of Merger”), such Merger to be consummated immediately upon filing of the Certificate of Merger or at such later time as may be agreed by the SPAC and the Company in writing and specified in the Certificate of Merger (the “Effective Time”).

 

(c)            At the Effective Time, the effect of the Merger shall be as provided in this Agreement, the Certificate of Merger and the applicable provisions of the DGCL. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and subject thereto, at the Effective Time, all the property of every description, rights, business, undertakings, goodwill, benefits, immunities and privileges, agreements, powers and franchises, debts, Liabilities, duties and obligations of Merger Sub and the SPAC shall become the property, rights, business, undertakings, goodwill, benefits, immunities and privileges, agreements, powers and franchises, debts, Liabilities, duties and obligations of the Surviving Company, which shall include the assumption by the Surviving Company of any and all agreements, covenants, duties and obligations of Merger Sub and the SPAC set forth in this Agreement to be performed after the Effective Time.

 

(d)            If, at any time after the Effective Time, any further action is necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement and to vest the Surviving Company with full right, title and interest in, to and under, and/or possession of, all assets, property, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of Merger Sub and the SPAC, the officers and directors of Merger Sub and the SPAC are fully authorized in the name of their respective corporations or otherwise to take, and will take, all such lawful and necessary action, so long as such action is not inconsistent with this Agreement.

 

1.02          Effect on Outstanding Shares. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, at the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the SPAC, Merger Sub, the Company or their respective stockholders:

 

(a)            the stock transfer books of the SPAC shall be closed and there shall be no further registration of transfers of SPAC Shares thereafter on the records of the SPAC. From and after the Effective Time, the holders of stock certificates outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall cease to have any rights with respect to such SPAC shares except as otherwise provided for herein.

The Company shall take all corporate action necessary to have a sufficient number of authorized but unissued Pubco Class A Shares that can be issued and allotted upon exercise of the Assumed Warrants in accordance with this Section 1.02(d) and the terms of the instrument constituting the Assumed Warrants.

1.03          Organizational Documents. At the Effective Time, the certificate of incorporation of the SPAC and the bylaws of the SPAC, each as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall be amended and restated in their entireties to be the Surviving Company Charter and the Surviving Company Bylaws, respectively, until thereafter supplemented or amended in accordance with their terms and the DGCL.

 

1.04          Directors and Officers. Immediately after the Effective Time, the board of directors and officers of Merger Sub prior to the Effective Time shall be the initial board of directors and officers of the Surviving Company.

 

1.05          Withholding.

11.20        Tax Matters.

 

(a)            The Parties hereto intend that (i) the Merger qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder to which each of the SPAC, Merger Sub and the Company are parties under Section 368(b) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, and this Agreement is intended to be (and the SPAC, Merger Sub and the Company hereby adopt this Agreement as) a “plan of reorganization” within the meaning of the Treasury Regulations Section 1.368-2(g) and 1.368-3, and (ii) the transfer of SPAC Shares by SPAC Shareholders pursuant to the Merger, other than by any SPAC Shareholders who are U.S. persons and who are or will be “five-percent transferee shareholders” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.367(a)-3(c)(5)(ii) but who do not enter into gain recognition agreements within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Sections 1.367(a)-3(c)(1)(iii)(B) and 1.367(a)-8, qualifies for an exception to Section 367(a)(1) of the Code (collectively, the “Intended Tax Treatment”). Each Party hereto agrees, except to the extent prohibited by applicable Law, to report for all Tax purposes in a manner consistent with, and not otherwise take any U.S. federal income tax position inconsistent with, the Intended Tax Treatment, including causing the SPAC (and providing any information reasonably available to such Party that is necessary to allow the SPAC) to comply with the filing and reporting requirements in Treasury Regulations Section 1.367(a)-3(c)(6) in a manner consistent with the Intended Tax Treatment (including, without limitation, timely filing its U.S. federal income Tax Return for its Tax year in which the Merger is consummated (taking into account any extensions of time therefor) and attaching to such timely filed Tax Return the statement titled “Section 367(a)-Reporting of Cross-Border Transfer Under Reg. §1.367(a)-3(c)(6),” signed under penalties of perjury by an officer of the SPAC to the best of the officer’s knowledge and belief), in each case, unless otherwise required pursuant to a “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313 of the Code. No Party shall take or cause to be taken any action, or knowingly fail to take or cause to be taken any action that prevents the Intended Tax Treatment, in each case, other than any action or failure to act (i) required by a change in applicable Law (including the Code, Treasury Regulations or other IRS published guidance), (ii) contemplated by the Transaction Documents, except to the extent any such action or failure to act is attributable to a manifest error in such Transaction Document; provided, that, for the avoidance of doubt, the Transaction Documents contemplate that the Surviving Corporation will not be further merged or liquidated following the Merger in connection with the Transactions, or (iii) relating to reporting for Tax purposes, which are addressed by the preceding sentence . Each of the Parties hereto further acknowledges and hereby agrees that (x) it is not a condition to the Closing that the Mergers qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) and (y) no Tax opinion that the Merger qualifies as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code or otherwise qualifies for the Intended Tax Treatment is being given by counsel to any of the SPAC, the Company, the Merger Sub or any other Party hereto.

EXECUTION VERSION

 

SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT

 

This SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT (this “Subscription Agreement”) is entered into on June 3, 2021, by and among Babylon Holdings Limited, a company limited by shares incorporated under the laws of Jersey with registered number 115471 (the “Company”), ALKURI GLOBAL ACQUISITION CORP., a Delaware corporation (the “SPAC”), and the undersigned subscriber (“Subscriber”).

 

WHEREAS, concurrently with the execution of this Subscription Agreement, the Company and SPAC are entering into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with certain other parties, dated as of June 3, 2021, pursuant to which (and subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein) a newly formed subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”) will merge with and into the SPAC, with the SPAC surviving the merger and the Company becoming a public reporting entity (such agreement as amended, supplemented, restated or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Merger Agreement,” and the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, collectively, the “Transaction”), and in consideration therefor, the Company will issue Class A ordinary shares (the “Shares”), to certain of the SPAC stockholders;

 

WHEREAS, in connection with the Transaction, Subscriber desires to subscribe for and purchase from the Company, immediately prior to the consummation of the Transaction, that number of Shares, set forth on the signature page hereto (the “Subscribed Shares”) for a per share purchase price equal to $10.00 (the “Per Share Price” and the aggregate of such Per Share Price for all Subscribed Shares being referred to herein as the “Purchase Price”), and the Company desires to issue and sell to Subscriber the Subscribed Shares in consideration of the payment of the Purchase Price by or on behalf of Subscriber to the Company; and

 

WHEREAS, concurrently with the execution of this Subscription Agreement, the Company is entering into subscription agreements (the “Other Subscription Agreements” and together with the Subscription Agreement, the “Subscription Agreements”) with certain other investors (the “Other Subscribers” and together with Subscriber, the “Subscribers”), which are on substantially the same terms as the terms of this Subscription Agreement, pursuant to which such Subscribers have agreed to purchase on the closing date of the Transaction (the “Closing Date”), inclusive of the Subscribed Shares, an aggregate amount of up to 23,000,000 Shares, at the Per Share Price.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual representations, warranties and covenants, and subject to the conditions, herein contained, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

 

1.             Subscription. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, at the Closing (as defined below), Subscriber hereby agrees to subscribe for and purchase, and the Company hereby agrees to issue and sell to Subscriber, upon the payment of the Purchase Price, the Subscribed Shares (such subscription and issuance, the “Subscription”).

 

2.             Closing.

 

a.             The consummation of the Subscription contemplated hereby (the “Closing”) shall occur on the Closing Date immediately prior to, and is contingent upon, the consummation of the Transaction and the terms and conditions of this Subscription Agreement.

 

 

 

 

b.             At least five (5) Business Days (as defined below) before the anticipated Closing Date, the Company shall deliver written notice to Subscriber (the “Closing Notice”) specifying (i) the anticipated Closing Date and (ii) the wire instructions for delivery of the Purchase Price to the Company. No later than three (3) Business Days after receiving the Closing Notice, Subscriber shall deliver to the Company such information as is reasonably requested in the Closing Notice in order for the Company to issue the Subscribed Shares to Subscriber, including, without limitation, the legal name of the person in whose name the Subscribed Shares are to be issued. No later than three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, Subscriber shall deliver the Purchase Price for the Subscribed Shares by wire transfer of United States dollars in immediately available funds to the account specified by the Company in the Closing Notice, such funds to be held by the Company in escrow until the Closing. Upon satisfaction (or, if applicable, waiver) of the conditions set forth in this Section 2, the Company shall deliver to Subscriber (i) at the Closing, the Subscribed Shares in book entry form, free and clear of any liens or other restrictions (other than those arising under state or federal securities laws), in the name of Subscriber (or its nominee in accordance with its delivery instructions), and (ii) as promptly as practicable after the Closing (but no later than two (2) Business Days after Closing), evidence from the Company’s transfer agent of the issuance to Subscriber of the Subscribed Shares on and as of the Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing two sentences, for any Subscriber that informs the Company (1) that it is an investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, (2) that it is advised by an investment adviser subject to regulation under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended, or (3) that its internal compliance policies and procedures so require, then, in lieu of the settlement procedures in the foregoing two sentences, the following shall apply: such Subscriber shall deliver at 8:00 a.m. New York City time (or as soon as practicable following receipt of evidence from the Company’s transfer agent of the issuance to Subscriber of the Subscribed Shares on and as of the Closing Date) on the Closing Date the Purchase Price for the Subscribed Shares by wire transfer of United States dollars in immediately available funds to the account specified by the Company in the Closing Notice against (and concurrently with) delivery by the Company to Subscriber of (A) the Subscribed Shares in book entry form, free and clear of any liens or other restrictions (other than those arising under state or federal securities laws), in the name of Subscriber (or its nominee in accordance with its delivery instructions) or to a custodian designated by Subscriber, as applicable, and (B) evidence from the Company or its transfer agent of the issuance to Subscriber of the Subscribed Shares on and as of the Closing Date. In the event that the consummation of the Transaction does not occur within two (2) Business Day after the anticipated Closing Date specified in the Closing Notice, unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the Company and the Subscriber, the Company shall promptly (but in no event later than one (1) Business Day thereafter) return the funds so delivered by Subscriber to the Company by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the account specified by Subscriber, and any book entries representing the Subscribed Shares shall be deemed cancelled. Notwithstanding such return or cancellation. (x) a failure to close on the anticipated Closing Date shall not, by itself, be deemed to be a failure of any of the conditions to Closing set forth in this Section 2(b) to be satisfied or waived on or prior to the Closing Date, and (y) unless and until this Subscription Agreement is terminated in accordance with Section 7, Subscriber shall remain obligated (A) to redeliver funds to the Company following the Company’s delivery to Subscriber of a new Closing Notice and (B) to consummate the Closing upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth in this Section 2. For the purposes of this Subscription Agreement, “Business Day” means any day other than a Saturday, Sunday or a day on which the Federal Reserve Bank of New York is closed. If at any time prior to the Closing Date, the SPAC reasonably determines that the Subscriber’s Subscribed Shares, after giving effect to the various transactions in the Company’s capital stock to be completed on the Closing Date, will or could reasonably be expected to equal or exceed ten percent (10%) or more of the outstanding capital stock of the Company entitled to vote, as of immediately following the Closing, the SPAC will be required to notify the Subscriber of the same prior to the Closing Date and the Company will permit the Subscriber to reduce its obligation to purchase the Subscribed Shares to be less than ten percent (10%) or more of the outstanding capital stock of the Company entitled to vote.

(iii)          no governmental authority 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 consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby illegal or otherwise restraining or prohibiting consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby; and no such governmental authority shall have instituted or threatened in writing a proceeding seeking to impose any such restraint or prohibition.

 

d.            The obligation of the Company to consummate the Closing shall be subject to the satisfaction or valid waiver by the Company and the SPAC of the additional conditions that, on the Closing Date:

 

(i)            all representations and warranties of Subscriber contained in this Subscription Agreement shall be true and correct in all material respects (other than representations and warranties that are qualified as to materiality or Subscriber Material Adverse Effect (as defined below), which representations and warranties shall be true in all respects) at and as of the Closing Date, unless such representations and warranties specifically speak of an earlier date, in which case, they shall be true and correct in all material respects (other than representations and warranties that are qualified as to materiality or Subscriber Material Adverse Effect (as defined below), which representations and warranties shall be true in all respects) as of such date; and

 

(ii)           Subscriber shall have performed, satisfied and complied in all material respects with all covenants, agreements and conditions required by this Subscription Agreement to be performed, satisfied or complied with by it at or prior to the Closing.

(iv)         there shall have been no amendment, waiver or modification to any Other Subscription Agreements that materially benefits any Other Subscribers unless Subscriber has been offered substantially similar benefits in writing;

k.             Subscriber has adequately analyzed and fully considered the risks of an investment in the Subscribed Shares and determined that the Subscribed Shares are a suitable investment for Subscriber and that Subscriber is able at this time and in the foreseeable future to bear the economic risks of its prospective investment and can afford the complete loss of such investment.

 

l.              Subscriber understands and agrees that no federal or state agency has passed upon or endorsed the merits of the offering of the Subscribed Shares or made any findings or determination as to the fairness of this investment.

 

m.            Subscriber is not (i) a person or entity named on the List of Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons administered by the U.S. Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”) or in any Executive Order issued by the President of the United States and administered by OFAC (“OFAC List”), or a person or entity prohibited by any sanctions program by OFAC, the United Nations Security Council, the European Union, Her Majesty’s Treasury of the United Kingdom, or other relevant sanctions authority (collectively, “Sanctions”), (ii) a Designated National as defined in the Cuban Assets Control Regulations, 31 C.F.R.

n.             Subscriber does not have, as of the date hereof, and during the 30-day period immediately prior to the date hereof such Subscriber has not entered into, any “put equivalent position” as such term is defined in Rule 16a-1 under the Exchange Act or short sale positions with respect to the securities of the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of a Subscriber that is a multi-managed investment vehicle or an owner of a separate account whereby separate portfolio managers manage separate portions of such Subscriber’s assets and the portfolio managers have no direct knowledge of the investment decisions made by the portfolio managers managing other portions of such Subscriber’s assets, the representation set forth above shall only apply with respect to the portion of assets managed by the portfolio manager that made the investment decision to purchase the Subscribed Shares covered by this Subscription Agreement.

 

o.             If Subscriber is an employee benefit plan that is subject to Title I of ERISA, a plan, an individual retirement account or other arrangement that is subject to Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) or an employee benefit plan that is a governmental plan (as defined in Section 3(32) of ERISA), a church plan (as defined in Section 3(33) of ERISA), a non-U.S. plan (as described in Section 4(b)(4) of ERISA) or other plan that is not subject to the foregoing but may be subject to provisions under any other federal, state, local, non-U.S. or other laws or regulations that are similar to such provisions of ERISA or the Code, or an entity whose underlying assets are considered to include “plan assets” of any such plan, account or arrangement (each, a “Plan”) subject to the fiduciary or prohibited transaction provisions of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, Subscriber represents and warrants that (i) neither the Company nor, to Subscriber’s knowledge, any of the Company’s affiliates (the “Transaction Parties”) has acted as the Plan’s fiduciary, or has been relied on for advice, with respect to its decision to acquire and hold the Subscribed Shares, and none of the Transaction Parties shall at any time be relied upon as the Plan’s fiduciary with respect to any decision to acquire, continue to hold or transfer the Subscribed Shares and (ii) the acquisition and holding of the Subscribed Shares will not result in a non-exempt prohibited transaction under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code.

q.             No disclosure or offering document has been prepared in connection with the offer and sale of the Shares by the Placement Agents or their respective affiliates.

 

r.              Notwithstanding Section 9(m), the Placement Agents may rely upon the representations and warranties made by Subscriber to the Company in this Subscription Agreement.

 

s.             Neither the due diligence investigation conducted by the Subscriber in connection with making its decision to acquire the Subscribed Shares nor any representations and warranties made by the Subscriber herein shall modify, amend or affect the Subscriber’s right to rely on the truth, accuracy and completeness of the Company’s or the SPAC’s representations and warranties contained herein.

t.              Regulatory. If applicable, in connection with the Transaction, the Subscriber shall comply promptly but in no event later than ten (10) Business Days after the date hereof with all applicable notification and reporting requirements pursuant to the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976 (the “HSR Act”). If applicable, Subscriber shall use its reasonable best efforts to furnish to the Company or Target, as applicable, as promptly as reasonably practicable all information required for any notification or filing to be made pursuant to the HSR Act or any other applicable law or regulatory body in connection with the Transaction. If applicable, Subscriber shall request early termination of all applicable waiting periods under the HSR Act with respect to the Transaction and shall use its reasonable best efforts to (i) cooperate in good faith with the relevant authorities; (ii) substantially comply with any information or document requests; and (iii) obtain the termination or expiration of all waiting periods under the HSR Act, in each case, in connection with the Transaction.

 

6.             Registration of Subscribed Shares.

 

a.             The Company agrees that, within fifteen (15) Business Days after Closing Date (the “Filing Deadline”), it will file with the Commission (at the Company’s sole cost and expense) a registration statement registering the resale of the Subscribed Shares (including the prospectus in such registration statement, amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to such registration statement, and all exhibits to and material incorporated by reference in such registration statement, the “Registration Statement”), and the Company shall use its best efforts to have the Registration Statement declared effective as soon as practicable after the filing thereof, but in any event no later than the earlier of (i) sixty (60) calendar days (or ninety (90) calendar days if the Commission notifies the Company that it will “review” the Registration Statement) following the Closing Date and (ii) the tenth (10th) Business Day after the date the Company is notified in writing by the Commission that the Registration Statement will not be “reviewed” or will not be subject to further review (such earlier date, the “Effectiveness Deadline”), provided, that if such day falls on a Saturday, Sunday or other day that the Commission is closed for business, the Effectiveness Deadline shall be extended to the next Business Day on which the Commission is open for business. The Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to provide a draft of the Registration Statement to the Subscriber for review at least two (2) Business Days in advance of filing the Registration Statement; provided, that, for the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall the Company be required to delay or postpone the filing of such Registration Statement as a result of or in connection with Subscriber’s review. Unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the Subscriber, the Subscriber shall not be identified as a statutory underwriter in the Registration Statement unless requested by the Commission or another regulatory agency; provided, that, if the Commission or another regulatory agency requests that a Subscriber be identified as a statutory underwriter in the Registration Statement, Subscriber will have the opportunity to withdraw from the Registration Statement upon its prompt written request to the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Commission prevents the Company from including any or all of the shares proposed to be registered under the Registration Statement due to limitations on the use of Rule 415 under the Securities Act for the resale of the Subscribed Shares by the applicable stockholders or otherwise, such Registration Statement shall register for resale such number of Subscribed Shares which is equal to the maximum number of Subscribed Shares as is permitted to be registered by the Commission. In such event, the number of Subscribed Shares to be registered for each selling stockholder named in the Registration Statement shall be reduced pro rata among all such selling stockholders. The undersigned agrees to disclose its beneficial ownership, as determined in accordance with Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act, of Subscribed Shares to the Company upon request to assist the Company in making the determination described above. The Company’s obligations to include the Subscribed Shares in the Registration Statement are contingent upon Subscriber furnishing in writing to the Company such information regarding Subscriber, the securities of the Company held by Subscriber and the intended method of disposition of the Subscribed Shares as shall be reasonably requested by the Company to effect the registration of the Subscribed Shares, and Subscriber shall execute such documents in connection with such registration as the Company may reasonably request that are customary for a selling stockholder in similar situations, including providing that the Company shall be entitled to postpone and suspend the use of the Registration Statement in connection with a Suspension Event (as defined below) as permitted hereunder, provided that Subscriber shall not in connection with the foregoing be required to execute any lock-up or similar agreement or otherwise be subject to any contractual restriction on the ability to transfer the Subscribed Shares. In the case of the registration effected by the Company pursuant to this Subscription Agreement, the Company shall, upon reasonable request, inform Subscriber as to the status of such registration. Unless otherwise consented to by the Company, Subscriber shall not be entitled to use the Registration Statement for an underwritten offering of Subscribed Shares. For purposes of this Section 6, “Subscribed Shares” shall include the Subscribed Shares acquired pursuant to this Subscription Agreement and any other equity security of the Company issued or issuable with respect to the Subscribed Shares by way of share split, dividend, distribution, recapitalization, merger, exchange, replacement or similar event or otherwise, but not, for the avoidance of doubt, any other equity security of the Company owned or acquired by Subscriber. For purposes of clarification, any failure by the Company to file the Registration Statement by the Filing Deadline or to effect such Registration Statement by the Effectiveness Deadline shall not otherwise relieve the Company of its obligations to file or effect the Registration Statement set forth in this Section 6.

 

17

 

 

b.             The Company agrees that, except for such times as the Company is permitted hereunder to suspend the use of the prospectus forming part of a Registration Statement, the Company will use its best efforts to cause such Registration Statement to remain effective with respect to Subscriber until the date on which all of the Subscribed Shares shall have been sold. At its expense, the Company shall:

 

(i)           advise Subscriber within five (5) Business Days (A) of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of any Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for such purpose; (B) of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the Subscribed Shares included therein for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose; (C) subject to the provisions in this Subscription Agreement, of the occurrence of any event that requires the making of any changes in any Registration Statement or prospectus included therein so that, as of such date, the statements therein are not misleading and do not omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of a prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading; and (D) when a Registration Statement or any amendment thereto has been filed with the Commission and when such Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto has become effective.

 

18

 

 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the Company shall not, in its notification advising Subscriber of such events, provide Subscriber with any material, nonpublic information regarding the Company other than to the extent that providing notice to Subscriber of the occurrence of the events listed in (A) through (C) above may be deemed to constitute material, nonpublic information regarding the Company;

 

(ii)           use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of any Registration Statement as soon as reasonably practicable;

 

(iii)          upon the occurrence of any event contemplated above, except for such times as the Company is permitted hereunder to suspend, and has suspended, the use of a prospectus forming part of a Registration Statement, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to as soon as reasonably practicable prepare a post-effective amendment to such Registration Statement or a supplement to the related prospectus, or file any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered to purchasers of the Subscribed Shares included therein, such prospectus will not include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; and

 

(iv)          use its commercially reasonable efforts (A) to take all other steps necessary to effect the registration of the Subscribed Shares contemplated hereby and (B) with a view to making available to Subscriber the benefits of Rule 144 or any similar rule or regulation of the Commission that may permit Subscriber to sell the Subscribed Shares to the public without registration, for so long as the Subscriber holds the Subscribed Shares to (I) make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144, (II) file all reports and other materials required to be filed by the Exchange Act so long as the Company remains subject to such requirements and the filing of such reports and other documents is required for the applicable provisions of Rule 144, (III) furnish to Subscriber, promptly upon reasonable written request, (x) a written statement by Company, if true, that it has complied with the reporting requirements of Rule 144, the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and (y) such other information as may reasonably be requested to enable Subscriber to sell the Subscribed Shares under Rule 144 without registration, and (IV) cause its legal counsel to deliver a customary opinion within two (2) business days of the delivery of all reasonably necessary representations and other documentation from the Subscriber as reasonably requested by the Company’s transfer agent.

 

19

 

 

c.             Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company may delay or postpone filing of such Registration Statement and from time to time require Subscriber not to sell under the Registration Statement or suspend the use of any such Registration Statement if it determines that in order for the Registration Statement to not contain a material misstatement or omission, an amendment thereto would be needed, or if the negotiation or consummation of a transaction by the Company or its subsidiaries is pending or an event has occurred, which negotiation, consummation or event, the Company’s board of directors reasonably believes, upon the advice of legal counsel, would require additional disclosure by the Company in the Registration Statement of material information that the Company has a bona fide business purpose for keeping confidential and the non-disclosure of which in the Registration Statement would be expected, in the reasonable determination of the Company’s board of directors, upon the advice of legal counsel, to cause the Registration Statement to fail to comply with applicable disclosure requirements (each such circumstance, a “Suspension Event”); provided, that, (i) the Company shall not so delay filing or so suspend the use of the Registration Statement for a period of more than forty-five (45) consecutive days, or for more than a total of ninety (90) days, or on more than two (2) occasions, in each case in any three hundred sixty (360)-day period and (ii) the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to make such registration statement available for the sale by Subscriber of such securities as soon as practicable thereafter. Upon receipt of any written notice from the Company of the happening of any Suspension Event during the period that the Registration Statement is effective or if as a result of a Suspension Event the Registration Statement or related prospectus contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made (in the case of the prospectus) not misleading, Subscriber agrees that (i) it will immediately discontinue offers and sales of the Subscribed Shares under the Registration Statement (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, sales conducted pursuant to Rule 144) until Subscriber receives copies of a supplemental or amended prospectus (which the Company agrees to promptly prepare) that corrects the misstatement(s) or omission(s) referred to above and receives notice that any post-effective amendment has become effective or unless otherwise notified by the Company that it may resume such offers and sales, and (ii) subject to the provisions of Section 9(u) of this Subscription Agreement, it will maintain the confidentiality of any information included in such written notice delivered by the Company unless otherwise required by law or subpoena. If so directed by the Company, Subscriber will deliver to the Company or, in Subscriber’s sole discretion destroy, all copies of the prospectus covering the Subscribed Shares in Subscriber’s possession; provided, however, that the obligation to deliver or destroy all copies of the prospectus covering the Subscribed Shares shall not apply (A) to the extent Subscriber is required to retain a copy of such prospectus (x) in order to comply with applicable legal, regulatory, self-regulatory or professional requirements or (y) in accordance with a bona fide pre-existing document retention policy or (B) to copies stored electronically on archival servers as a result of automatic data back-up.

 

d.             Subscriber hereby agrees that neither it, nor any person or entity acting on its behalf or pursuant to any understanding with it, shall execute any short sales or engage in other similar or equivalent hedging transactions of any kind with respect to securities of the Company during the period commencing on the date of this Subscription Agreement through the Closing (or such earlier termination of this Subscription Agreement). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of a Subscriber that is a multi-managed investment vehicle or an owner of a separate account whereby separate portfolio managers manage separate portions of such Subscriber’s assets and the portfolio managers have no direct knowledge of the investment decisions made by the portfolio managers managing other portions of such Subscriber’s assets, the restriction set forth above shall only apply with respect to the portion of assets managed by the portfolio manager that made the investment decision to purchase the Subscribed Shares covered by this Subscription Agreement.

 

20

 

 

e.             The parties agree that:

 

(i)           The Company shall, notwithstanding the termination of this Subscription Agreement, indemnify and hold harmless, to the extent permitted by law, Subscriber (to the extent a seller under the Registration Statement), the officers, directors, agents, partners, members, managers, shareholders, affiliates, employees and investment advisers of each Subscriber, each person who controls such Subscriber (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act), and the officers, directors, partners, members, managers, shareholders, agents, affiliates, employees and investment advisers of each such controlling from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, any reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) (collectively, “Losses”), as incurred, that arise out of or are based upon (A) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained or incorporated by reference in any Registration Statement, any prospectus included in any Registration Statement, or any preliminary prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or arising out of or relating to any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of any prospectus or form of prospectus or supplement thereto, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, except insofar as the same are solely caused by or contained in any information furnished in writing to the Company by or on behalf of Subscriber expressly for use therein or Subscriber has omitted a material fact from such information, or (B) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act, Exchange Act or any state securities law or any rule or regulation thereunder, in connection with the performance of its obligations under this Section 6providedhowever, that the indemnification contained in this Section 6(e) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Losses if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), nor shall the Company be liable for any Losses to the extent they arise out of or are based upon a violation which occurs (1) in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by Subscriber expressly for use therein, (B) in connection with any failure of such person to deliver or cause to be delivered a prospectus made available by the Company in a timely manner, or (C) in connection with any offers or sales effected by or on behalf of Subscriber in violation of Section 6(c) hereof (so long as, with respect to any Suspension Event, Subscriber has received written notice from the Company of such Suspension Event in accordance with the terms of this Agreement). The Company shall notify Subscriber promptly of the institution, threat or assertion of any proceeding arising from or in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Section 6 of which the Company receives notice in writing.

 

21

 

 

(ii)           Subscriber agrees, severally and not jointly with any person that is a party to the Other Subscription Agreements, to indemnify and hold harmless, to the extent permitted by law, the Company, its directors, officers, employees and agents and each person who controls the Company (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act) against any and all Losses, as incurred, that solely arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained or incorporated by reference in any Registration Statement, prospectus included in any Registration Statement or preliminary prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or arising out of or relating to any omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of any prospectus or form of prospectus or supplement thereto, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, but only to the extent that such untrue statement or omission is contained in any information furnished in writing by such Subscriber expressly for use therein; provided, however, that the indemnification contained in this Section 6(e) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Losses if such settlement is effected without the consent of Subscriber (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in no event shall the liability of Subscriber be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by Subscriber upon the sale of the Subscribed Shares purchased pursuant to this Subscription Agreement giving rise to such indemnification obligation. Subscriber shall notify the Company promptly upon receipt of written notice of the institution, threat or assertion of any proceeding arising from or in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Section 6(e) of which Subscriber is aware.

 

(iii)         Any person entitled to indemnification herein shall (A) 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 (B) 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. An indemnifying party who elects not to assume the defense of a claim shall not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for all parties indemnified by such indemnifying party with respect to such claim (in addition to local counsel in each jurisdiction where required), unless in the reasonable judgment of legal counsel to any indemnified party a conflict of interest exists 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 (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), 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 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.

 

(iv)         The indemnification provided for under this Subscription Agreement shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of the Subscribed Shares purchased pursuant to this Subscription Agreement.

 

22

 

 

(v)            If the indemnification provided under this Section 6 from the indemnifying party is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any Losses 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; provided, however, the liability of Subscriber shall be limited to the net proceeds received by Subscriber from the sale of the Subscribed Shares giving rise to such indemnification obligation. 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 relates to information supplied by, 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. 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 above, any legal or other fees, charges or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any investigation or proceeding. 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 Section 6(e) from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. In no event shall the liability of Subscriber be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by Subscriber upon the sale of the Subscribed Shares purchased pursuant to this Subscription Agreement giving rise to such contribution obligation.

 

f.             Subscriber may request that the Company remove any restrictive legend from the book-entry position evidencing the Subscribed Shares. Within two (2) business days of such request, subject to the Company and its transfer agent’s receipt from Subscriber of customary representations and other documentation reasonably acceptable to them in connection therewith, and, if required by the transfer agent, an opinion of Company’s or Subscriber’s counsel reasonably acceptable to the transfer agent to the effect that the removal of restrictive legends in such circumstances may be effected under the Securities Act. Subscriber’s request may be delivered at such time as the Subscribed Shares (i) are subject to and are sold or transferred pursuant to an effective registration statement or (ii) have been or are about to be sold pursuant to Rule 144. If restrictive legends are no longer required for the Subscribed Shares under the Securities Act, Subscriber may request that the restrictive legends be removed from the Subscriber Shares. Upon such a request, which must be accompanied by customary and reasonably acceptable representations and other documentation referred to above establishing that restrictive legends are no longer required, the Company shall within two (2) business days deliver to the transfer agent irrevocable instructions that the transfer agent create a new, un-legended entry for the Subscriber Shares, at the Company’s sole expense.

 

23 

 

 

7.             Termination. This Subscription Agreement shall terminate and be void and of no further force and effect, and all rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall terminate without any further liability on the part of any party in respect thereof, upon the earliest to occur of (a) such date and time as the Merger Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms, (b) upon the mutual written agreement of the Company, the SPAC, and the Subscriber to terminate this Subscription Agreement, (c) if, on the Closing Date of the Transaction, any of the conditions to Closing set forth in Section 2 of this Subscription Agreement have not been satisfied as of the time required hereunder to be so satisfied or waived by the party entitled to grant such waiver and, as a result thereof, the transactions contemplated by this Subscription Agreement are not consummated or (d) the date that is six (6) months after the date hereof, unless extended for an additional three (3) months by the delivery of written notice from the SPAC or the Company that the parties are working in good faith to expeditiously close the Transaction; provided, that nothing herein will relieve any party from liability for any willful breach hereof prior to the time of termination, and each party will be entitled to any remedies at law or in equity to recover reasonable and documented out-of-pocket losses, liabilities or damages arising from such breach. The Company shall notify Subscriber of the termination of the Merger Agreement promptly after the termination thereof.

 

8.             Trust Account Waiver. Reference is made to the SPAC’s final prospectus, dated as of November 19, 2020 and filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (File No. 333-249686) on November 23, 2020 (the “Prospectus”). Subscriber hereby acknowledges that the SPAC has established a trust account (the “Trust Account”) containing the proceeds of its initial public offering (the “IPO”) and from certain private placements occurring simultaneously with the IPO (including interest accrued from time to time thereon) and the overallotment shares acquired by its underwriters and from certain private placements occurring simultaneously with the IPO (including interest accrued from time to time thereon) for the benefit of the SPAC’s public stockholders and certain other parties (including the underwriters of the IPO), and that, except as otherwise described in the Prospectus, the SPAC may disburse monies from the Trust Account only: (a) to the SPAC’s public stockholders in the event they elect to redeem their shares in the SPAC in connection with the consummation of the Transaction, (b) to the SPAC’s public stockholders if the SPAC fails to consummate the Transaction within eighteen (18) months after the closing of the IPO, subject to extension by an amendment to its organizational documents, (c) with respect to any interest earned on the amounts held in the Trust Account, amounts necessary to pay for any taxes up to $100,000 in dissolution expenses or (d) to the SPAC after or concurrently with the consummation of the Transaction. For and in consideration of the SPAC entering into this Subscription Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Subscriber hereby agrees (on its own behalf and on behalf of its representatives) that Subscriber does not now and shall not at any time hereafter have any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the Trust Account or distributions therefrom, or make any claim against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) arising as a result of, in connection with or relating in any way to this Subscription Agreement, and regardless of whether such claim arises based on contract, tort, equity or any other theory of legal liability (collectively, the “Released Claims”). Subscriber, on behalf of itself and its controlled or controlling representatives, hereby irrevocably waives any Released Claims, including any and all right, title, interest or claim of any kind it has or may have in the future as a result of, or arising out of, this Subscription Agreement, in or to any monies held in the Trust Account, and agrees not to seek recourse or make or bring any action, suit, claim or other proceeding against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) as a result of, or arising out of, this Subscription Agreement, regardless of whether such claim arises based on contract, tort, equity or any other theory of legal liability. To the extent Subscriber commences any action or proceeding based upon, in connection with, relating to or arising out of this Subscription Agreement, which proceeding seeks, in whole or in part, monetary relief against the SPAC, Subscriber hereby acknowledges and agrees that Subscriber’s sole remedy shall be against funds held outside of the Trust Account and that such claim shall not permit Subscriber (or any person claiming on any of its or their behalf or in lieu of any of them) to have any claim against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) or any amounts contained therein.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 8 shall be deemed to limit or prohibit any Subscriber’s right to distributions from the Trust Account in accordance with the SPAC’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation in respect of Common Stock of the SPAC acquired by any means other than pursuant to this Subscription Agreement, or shall serve to limit or prohibit the Subscriber’s right to pursue a claim against the SPAC for legal relief against assets held outside the Trust Account, for specific performance or other equitable relief, or shall serve to limit or prohibit any claims that the Subscriber may have in the future against SPAC’s assets or funds that are not held in the Trust Account (including any funds that have been released from the Trust Account and any assets that have been purchased or acquired with any such funds).

13.           Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof.

 

14.           Successors, Assigns and Third-Party Beneficiaries.

Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, is intended to or shall constitute the parties acting as partners or participants in a joint venture. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company shall be a third-party beneficiary of Section 1 of this Agreement.

 

15.           Governing Law and Venue; Service of Process; Waiver of Jury Trial.

 

(a)            This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the Laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to conflicts of laws principles or rules to the extent such principles or rules are not mandatorily applicable and would require or permit the application of the Law of any jurisdiction other than the State of New York.

 

(b)            In addition, each of the parties (i) consents to submit itself, and hereby submits itself, to the personal jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York located in the City and County of New York or in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, in the event any dispute arises out of this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (ii) agrees that it will not attempt to deny or defeat such personal jurisdiction by motion or other request for leave from any such court, and agrees not to plead or claim any objection to the laying of venue in any such court or that any judicial proceeding in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum, (iii) agrees that it will not bring any action relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in any court other than the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or, if such court does not have subject matter jurisdiction, any state or federal court located in the State of Delaware having subject matter jurisdiction, and (iv) consents to service of process being made through the notice procedures set forth in Section 11.

8

 

 

16.           Assignment; Successors. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned by any of the parties hereto in whole or in part (whether by operation of Law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the other party, and any such assignment without such consent shall be null and void.

17.           Enforcement. The rights and remedies of the parties shall be cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred hereby.

18.           Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or other authority to be invalid, void, unenforceable or against its regulatory policy, the remainder of the terms and provisions 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 and legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby, taken as a whole, are not affected in a 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 an acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

 

19.           Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement, it being understood that each party need not sign the same counterpart.

Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement will be interpreted in such a manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any term or other provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable under applicable law, all other provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect 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 determination that any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or unenforceable under applicable law, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible.

WHEREAS, in furtherance of the foregoing, and in order to induce SPAC to enter into the Merger Agreement, SPAC Affiliate and the Company are entering into this agreement to provide the SPAC Affiliate with such rights, in each case, on the terms and conditions set forth herein.

(a)      From the Effective Time until the first anniversary of this Agreement, at every meeting of the Board, or a committee thereof, or action by written consent, at or by which directors of the Company are appointed by the Board or are nominated to stand for election and elected by shareholders of the Company, the SPAC Affiliate shall have the right to appoint or nominate one individual for election to the Board, to serve as a director of the Company (the “Nominee”).

 

(b)      For so long as required pursuant to Section 1.1(a), the Company shall take all actions necessary (including, without limitation, calling special meetings of the Board and the shareholders of the Company and recommending, supporting and soliciting proxies) to ensure that: (i) the Nominee is included in the Board’s slate of nominees to the shareholders of the Company for the election of directors of the Company and recommended by the Board at any meeting of shareholders called for the purpose of electing directors of the Company; and (ii) when the Nominee is up for election, the Nominee is included in the proxy statement prepared by management of the Company in connection with the Company’s solicitation of proxies or consents in favor of the foregoing for every meeting of the shareholders of the Company called with respect to the election of members of the Board, and at every adjournment or postponement thereof, and on every action or approval by written resolution of the shareholders of the Company or the Board with respect to the election of directors of the Company.

 

 

 

 

(c)      If the Nominee ceases to serve for any reason, the SPAC Affiliate (or its controlling person) shall, subject to the SPAC Affiliate (or its controlling person) then being entitled to nominate such individual for election or appointment as a director pursuant to Section 1.1(a), be entitled to designate and appoint or nominate such person’s successor in accordance with this Agreement, and the Board shall promptly fill the vacancy with such successor Nominee; provided, that such successor shall be reasonably acceptable to the Company..

 

(d)      Upon the Nominee’s election or appointment to the Board, as applicable, the Company shall indemnify the Nominee on the same basis as all other members of the Board and pursuant to an indemnity agreement with terms that are no less favorable to the Nominee than the indemnity agreements entered into between the Company and its other non-employee directors.

Section 2.6      Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement and supersedes all other prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, between the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement.

Section 2.10     Remedies. The parties hereto 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 hereto do not perform their obligations under the provisions of this Agreement in accordance with its specified terms or otherwise breach such provisions. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that (i) such parties shall be entitled to an injunction, specific performance, or other equitable relief, to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof and thereof, without proof of damages and without posting a bond, prior to the valid termination of this Agreement, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled under this Agreement, and (ii) the right of specific enforcement is an integral part of the transactions contemplated hereby and without that right, none of the parties hereto would have entered into this Agreement. Each party agrees that it will not oppose the granting of specific performance and other equitable relief on the basis that the other parties hereto have an adequate remedy at law or that an award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at law or equity. The parties acknowledge and agree that any party seeking an injunction to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement in accordance with this Section 2.10 shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such injunction.

EACH OF THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY AGREES AND CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION WILL BE DECIDED BY COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY, AND THAT THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY FILE A COPY OF THIS AGREEMENT WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT OF THE PARTIES HERETO TO THE WAIVER OF THEIR RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY.

 

Section 2.12     Specific Performance. The parties hereto acknowledge that the rights of each party hereto to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby are unique and recognize and affirm that in the event of a breach of this Agreement by any party hereto, money damages may be inadequate and such non-breaching party may have no adequate remedy at law. Accordingly, the parties hereto agree that such non-breaching party shall have the right to enforce its rights and the other party’s obligations hereunder by an action or actions for specific performance and/or injunctive relief (without posting of bond or other security), including any order, injunction or decree sought by such non-breaching party to cause the other party to perform its/their respective agreements and covenants contained in this Agreement and to cure breaches of this Agreement, without the necessity of proving actual harm and/or damages or posting a bond or other security therefore. Each party hereto further agrees that the only permitted objection that it may raise in response to any action for any such equitable relief is that it contests the existence of a breach or threatened breach of this Agreement.

REGISTRATIONS AND OFFERINGS

 

2.1               Shelf Registration.

 

2.1.1          Filing. The Company shall file within 30 days of the Closing Date, and use commercially reasonable efforts to cause to be declared effective as soon as practicable thereafter, a Registration Statement for a Shelf Registration on Form F-1 or Form S-1, as applicable (the “Form F-1 Shelf”) or, if the Company is eligible to use a Registration Statement on Form F-3 or Form S-3, a Shelf Registration on Form F-3 or Form S-3, as applicable (the “Form F-3 Shelf”), in each case, covering the resale of all the Registrable Securities (determined as of two business days prior to such filing) on a delayed or continuous basis. Such Shelf shall provide for the resale of the Registrable Securities included therein pursuant to any method or combination of methods legally available to, and requested by, any Holder named therein. The Company shall maintain a Shelf in accordance with the terms hereof, and shall prepare and file with the SEC such amendments, including post-effective amendments, and supplements as may be necessary to keep a Shelf continuously effective, available for use and in compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act until such time as there are no longer any Registrable Securities. In the event the Company files a Form F-1 Shelf, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to convert the Form F-1 Shelf (and any Subsequent Shelf Registration) to a Form F-3 Shelf as soon as practicable after the Company is eligible to use Form F-3.

2.1.2          Subsequent Shelf Registration. If any Shelf ceases to be effective under the Securities Act for any reason at any time while Registrable Securities are still outstanding, the Company shall, subject to Section 3.4, use its commercially reasonable efforts to as promptly as is reasonably practicable cause such Shelf to again become effective under the Securities Act (including obtaining the prompt withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of such Shelf), and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to as promptly as is reasonably practicable amend such Shelf in a manner reasonably expected to result in the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of such Shelf or file an additional registration statement as a Shelf Registration (a “Subsequent Shelf Registration”) registering the resale of all Registrable Securities (determined as of two business days prior to such filing), and pursuant to any method or combination of methods legally available to, and requested by, any Holder named therein. If a Subsequent Shelf Registration is filed, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to (i) cause such Subsequent Shelf Registration to become effective under the Securities Act as promptly as is reasonably practicable after the filing thereof (it being agreed that the Subsequent Shelf Registration shall be an automatic shelf registration statement (as defined in Rule 405 promulgated under the Securities Act) if the Company is a well-known seasoned issuer (as defined in Rule 405 promulgated under the Securities Act) at the most recent applicable eligibility determination date), and (ii) keep such Subsequent Shelf Registration continuously effective, available for use and in compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act until such time as there are no longer any Registrable Securities. Any such Subsequent Shelf Registration shall be on Form F-3 or Form S-3, as applicable, to the extent that the Company is eligible to use such form. Otherwise, such Subsequent Shelf Registration shall be on another appropriate form.

 

2.1.3          Additional Registerable Securities. In the event that any Holder holds Registrable Securities that are not registered for resale on a delayed or continuous basis, the Company, upon written request of the Sponsor, shall promptly use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the resale of such Registrable Securities to be covered by either, at the Company’s option, any then available Shelf (including by means of a post-effective amendment) or by filing a Subsequent Shelf Registration and cause the same to become effective as soon as practicable after such filing and such Shelf or Subsequent Shelf Registration shall be subject to the terms hereof.

 

2.1.4          Requests for Underwritten Shelf Takedowns. At any time and from time to time when an effective Shelf is on file with the Commission, (i) the Sponsor (or any lender to the Sponsor who receives Registrable Securities as a result of a foreclosure of Sponsor’s pledge on such securities) or (ii) any Major Legacy Equityholder (being, in such case, a “Demanding Holder”) may request to sell all or any portion of its Registrable Securities in an Underwritten Offering or other coordinated offering that is registered pursuant to the Shelf (each, an “Underwritten Shelf Takedown”); provided, that the Company shall only be obligated to effect an Underwritten Shelf Takedown if such offering shall include Registrable Securities proposed to be sold by all Holders selling any Registrable Securities in such offering with a total offering price reasonably expected to exceed, in the aggregate, $30 million (the “Minimum Takedown Threshold”); and each Demanding Holder shall be permitted to request three Underwritten Shelf Takedowns per calendar year. All requests for Underwritten Shelf Takedowns shall be made by giving written notice to the Company, which shall specify the approximate number of Registrable Securities proposed to be sold in the Underwritten Shelf Takedown. Subject to Section 2.4.4, the Demanding Holder shall have the right to select the Underwriters for such offering (which shall consist of one or more reputable nationally recognized investment banks), subject to the Company’s prior approval (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

 

2.1.5          Reduction of Underwritten Offering. If the managing Underwriter or Underwriters in an Underwritten Shelf Takedown, in good faith, advises the Company, the Demanding Holder and the Holders requesting piggy back rights pursuant to this Agreement with respect to such Underwritten Shelf Takedown (the “Requesting Holders”) (if any) in writing that the dollar amount or number of Registrable Securities that the Demanding Holder and the Requesting Holders (if any) desire to sell, taken together with all other Pubco Shares or other equity securities that the Company desires to sell and all other Pubco Shares or other equity securities, if any, that have been requested to be sold in such Underwritten Offering pursuant to separate written contractual piggy-back registration rights held by any other shareholders, exceeds the maximum dollar amount or maximum number of equity securities that can be sold in the Underwritten Offering 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 the Company shall include in such Underwritten Offering, before including any Pubco Shares or other equity securities proposed to be sold by Company or by other holders of Pubco Shares or other equity securities, the Registrable Securities of the Demanding Holder and the Requesting Holders (if any) (pro rata based on the respective number of Registrable Securities that such Demanding Holder and Requesting Holder (if any) has requested be included in such Underwritten Shelf Takedown and the aggregate number of Registrable Securities that the Demanding Holder and Requesting Holders have requested be included in such Underwritten Shelf Takedown) that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities.

2.1.6          Withdrawal. Prior to the filing of the applicable “red herring” prospectus or prospectus supplement used for marketing such Underwritten Shelf Takedown, the Demanding Holder initiating an Underwritten Shelf Takedown shall have the right to withdraw from such Underwritten Shelf Takedown for any or no reason whatsoever upon written notification (a “Withdrawal Notice”) to the Company and the Underwriter or Underwriters (if any) of its intention to withdraw from such Shelf Takedown, and such Underwritten Shelf Takedown shall not be counted as a demand for an Underwritten Shelf Takedown under Section 2.1.4 hereof; provided that the Requesting Holders may elect to have the Company continue an Underwritten Shelf Takedown if the Minimum Takedown Threshold would still be satisfied by the Registrable Securities proposed to be sold in the Underwritten Shelf Takedown. Following the receipt of any Withdrawal Notice, the Company shall promptly forward such Withdrawal Notice to any other Holders that had elected to participate in such Shelf Takedown. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Company shall be responsible for the Registration Expenses incurred in connection with a Shelf Takedown prior to its withdrawal under this Section 2.1.6.

2.1.7          New Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the registration obligations set forth in this Section 2.1, in the event the Commission informs the Company that the Registrable Securities cannot, as a result of the application of Rule 415, be registered for resale as a secondary offering on a single registration statement, the Company agrees to promptly (i) inform each of the holders thereof and file amendments to the Shelf Registration as required by the Commission and/or (ii) withdraw the Shelf Registration and file a new registration statement (a “New Registration Statement”), on Form F-3 or Form S-3, as applicable, or if such forms are not then available to the Company for such registration statement, on such other form available to register for resale of the Registrable Securities as a secondary offering; provided, however, that prior to filing such amendment or New Registration Statement, the Company shall advocate with the Commission for the registration of all of the Registrable Securities in accordance with any publicly-available written or oral guidance, comments, requirements or requests of the Commission staff (“SEC Guidance”), including without limitation, the Manual of Publicly Available Telephone Interpretations D.29. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any SEC Guidance sets forth a limitation of the number of Registrable Securities permitted to be registered on a particular Registration Statement as a secondary offering (and notwithstanding that the Company advocated with the Commission for the registration of all or a greater number of Registrable Securities), unless otherwise directed in writing by a holder as to its Registrable Securities, the number of Registrable Securities to be registered on such Registration Statement will be reduced on a pro rata basis based on the total number of Registrable Securities held by the Holders, subject to a determination by the Commission that certain Holders must be reduced first based on the number of Registrable Securities held by such Holders. In the event the Company amends the Shelf Registration or files a New Registration Statement, as the case may be, under clauses (i) or (ii) above, the Company will file with the Commission, as promptly as allowed by Commission or SEC Guidance provided to the Company or to registrants of securities in general, one or more registration statements on Form F-3, Form S-3, or such other form available to register for resale those Registrable Securities that were not registered for resale on the Shelf Registration, as amended, or the New Registration Statement.

2.1.8          Effective Registration. Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 2.1.3 or 2.1.4 above or any other part of this Agreement, a Registration shall not count as a Registration unless and until (i) the Registration Statement has been declared effective by the Commission, and (ii) the Company has complied with all of its obligations under this Agreement with respect thereto; provided, however, that, if after such Registration Statement has been declared effective, an offering of Registrable Securities is subsequently interfered with by any stop order or injunction of the Commission, federal or state court or any other governmental agency the Registration Statement with respect to such Registration shall be deemed not to have been declared effective, unless and until, (i) such stop order or injunction is removed, rescinded or otherwise terminated, and (ii) a majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders initiating such Registration thereafter affirmatively elect to continue with such Registration and accordingly notify the Company in writing, but in no event later than five (5) days, of such election; provided, further, that the Company shall not be obligated or required to file another Registration Statement until the Registration Statement that has been previously filed with respect to a Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration becomes effective or is subsequently terminated.

 

2.2               Piggyback Registration.

 

2.2.1          Piggyback Rights. Subject to Section 2.4.3, if the Company or any Holder proposes to conduct a registered offering of, or if the Company proposes to file a Registration Statement under the Securities Act with respect to the Registration 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 the Company (or by the Company and by the shareholders of the Company including, without limitation, an Underwritten Shelf Takedown pursuant to Section 2.1 hereof), other than a Registration Statement (or any registered offering with respect thereto) (i) filed in connection with any employee stock option or other benefit plan, (ii) pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form F-4 or Form S-4 (or other similar form that relates to a transaction subject to Rule 145 under the Securities Act or any successor rule thereto), (iii) for an offering of debt that is convertible into equity securities of the Company, (iv) for a dividend reinvestment plan, or (v) for a rights offering, then the Company shall give written notice of such proposed offering to all of the Holders of Registrable Securities as soon as practicable but not less than 10 days before the anticipated filing date of such Registration Statement or, in the case of an Underwritten Offering pursuant to a Shelf Registration, the applicable “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 registered offering such number of Registrable Securities as such Holders may request in writing within five (5) days after receipt of such written notice (such registered offering, a “Piggyback Registration”). Subject to Section 2.2.2, the Company shall, in good faith, cause such Registrable Securities to be included in such Piggyback Registration and, if applicable, shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the managing Underwriter or Underwriters of such Piggyback Registration to permit the Registrable Securities requested by the Holders pursuant to this Section 2.2.1 to be included therein on the same terms and conditions as any similar securities of the Company included in such registered offering and to permit the sale or other disposition of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method(s) of distribution thereof.

The exclusion of a Holder’s Registrable Securities as a result of this Section 3.3 shall not affect the registration of the other Registrable Securities to be included in such Registration.

 

3.4               Suspension of Sales; Adverse Disclosure; Restrictions on Registration Rights.

 

3.4.1          Upon receipt of written notice from the Company that a Registration Statement or Prospectus contains a Misstatement, each of the Holders shall forthwith discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities until it has received copies of a supplemented or amended Prospectus correcting the Misstatement (it being understood that the Company hereby covenants to prepare and file such supplement or amendment as soon as practicable after the time of such notice), or until it is advised in writing by the Company that the use of the Prospectus may be resumed.

 

3.4.2          If the filing, initial effectiveness or continued use of a Registration Statement in respect of any Registration at any time would (a) require the Company to make an Adverse Disclosure, (b) require the inclusion in such Registration Statement of financial statements that are unavailable to the Company for reasons beyond the Company’s control, or (c) in the good faith judgment of the majority of the Board, be seriously detrimental to the Company and the majority of the Board concludes as a result that it is essential to defer such filing, initial effectiveness or continued use at such time, the Company may, upon giving prompt written notice of such action to the Holders, delay the filing or initial effectiveness of, or suspend use of, such Registration Statement for the shortest period of time determined in good faith by the Company to be necessary for such purpose (any such period, a “Blackout Period”); provided, that no Blackout Period shall exceed more than 60 consecutive days after the request of the Holders is given. In the event the Company exercises its rights under this Section 3.4.2, 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.

 

3.4.3          (a) During the period starting with the date 60 days prior to the Company’s good faith estimate of the date of the filing of, and ending on a date 90 days after the effective date of, a Company-initiated Registration and provided that the Company continues to actively employ, in good faith, all reasonable efforts to maintain the effectiveness of the applicable Shelf, or (b) if, pursuant to Section 2.1.4, Holders have requested an Underwritten Shelf Takedown and the Company and such Holders are unable to obtain the commitment of underwriters to firmly underwrite such offering, the Company may, upon giving prompt written notice of such action to the Holders, delay any other registered offering pursuant to Sections 2.1.4 or 2.4.

 

15

 

 

3.4.4          The right to delay or suspend any filing, initial effectiveness or continued use of a Registration Statement pursuant to Section 3.4.2 or a registered offering pursuant to Section 3.4.3 shall be exercised by the Company, in the aggregate, for not more than 60 consecutive calendar days and not more than twice during any 12-month period.

 

3.5               Reporting Obligations. As long as any Holder shall own Registrable Securities, the Company, 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 the Company 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; provided that any documents publicly filed or furnished with the Commission pursuant to the Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval System shall be deemed to have been furnished or delivered to the Holders pursuant to this Section 3.5. The Company 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 Shares 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 then in effect). Upon the request of any Holder, the Company shall deliver to such Holder a written certification of a duly authorized officer as to whether it has complied with such requirements.

 

Article IV
INDEMNIFICATION AND CONTRIBUTION

 

4.1               Indemnification.

 

4.1.1          The Company agrees to indemnify, to the extent permitted by law, each Holder of Registrable Securities, its officers, directors and agents and each person who controls such Holder (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and out-of-pocket expenses (including without limitation reasonable outside attorneys’ fees) resulting from any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained 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, except insofar as the same are caused by or contained in any information or affidavit so furnished in writing to the Company by such Holder expressly for use therein, or any violation by the Company of the Securities Act or any rule or regulation promulgated thereunder applicable to the Company and relating to action or inaction of the Company in connection therewith.

 

4.1.2          In connection with any Registration Statement in which a Holder of Registrable Securities is participating, such Holder shall furnish to the Company in writing such information and affidavits as the Company reasonably requests for use in connection with any such Registration Statement or Prospectus (the “Holder Information”) and, to the extent permitted by law, shall indemnify the Company, its directors, officers and agents and each person who controls the Company (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and out-of-pocket expenses (including without limitation reasonable outside attorneys’ fees) resulting from any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained 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, but only to the extent that such untrue statement or omission is contained in 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 the Company.

 

16

 

 

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 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 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. The Company 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 the Company’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 out-of-pocket 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 out-of-pocket 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 relates to information supplied by, 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 Section 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 Sections 4.1.1, 4.1.2 and 4.1.3 above, any legal or other fees, charges or out-of-pocket 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 Section 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 Section 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 Section 4.1.5 from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

Exhibit 99.1

 

 

BABYLON, A WORLD LEADING, DIGITAL-FIRST, VALUE-BASED CARE COMPANY, ANNOUNCES PLANS TO BECOME A PUBLIC COMPANY VIA $4.2 BILLION MERGER WITH ALKURI GLOBAL ACQUISITION CORP.

 

Babylon is a world leading, digital-first, value-based care company, covering 24 million people across four continents
The company has scaled at c.5x annual revenue growth in 2020, and is expected to grow by c.4x in 2021
Transaction implies a $4.2 billion equity value for Babylon including an estimated $575 million in gross proceeds
Over 85% of raised cash from new, institutional external investors, including strategic investor Palantir (NYSE:PLTR)
Babylon Founder and CEO Dr. Ali Parsa will become Chairman and CEO of the combined entity; an Alkuri Global representative will join the Board of Directors

 

LONDON, UK and NASHVILLE, TN – June 3, 2021 – Babylon Holdings Limited (“Babylon”), a world leading, digital-first value-based care company, and Alkuri Global Acquisition Corp. (NASDAQ:KURI) (“Alkuri Global”), a special purpose acquisition company, today announced that they have entered into a definitive merger agreement. Upon closing of the transaction, the combined company will operate as Babylon and plans to trade on Nasdaq under the new symbol “BBLN”. The transaction reflects an initial pro forma equity value of approximately $4.2 billion. The transaction is expected to close in the second half of 2021.

 

Babylon was founded in 2013, with the mission to put accessible and affordable quality healthcare in the hands of every person on Earth. Babylon is poised to re-engineer the $10 trillion global healthcare market to better align systemwide incentives and shift the focus from reactive sick care to preventative healthcare, resulting in better member health, improved member experience and reduced costs.

 

The company is scaling at c.5x annual revenue growth in 2020, and is expected to grow by c.4x in 2021, covering millions of people across four continents.

 

Babylon helps patients through two primary channels -- Babylon 360, its digital-first value-based care service; and Babylon Cloud Services, a suite of digital self-care tools that enables patients and clinicians to gain insights and information either through Babylon directly or through Babylon’s roster of top-tier partners. Combined, those services cover 24 million people across the United States, Canada, Europe, Africa and 13 countries in Asia. In 2020, the company helped one patient every five seconds with approximately 6 million patient interactions. Moreover, Babylon has a 95 percent user retention rate and a 5-star rating from more than 90 percent of its users.

 

Supported by capital raised through the transaction, Babylon will continue to expand its services both with existing and new customers. Babylon has achieved strong traction in the U.S. market and is focused on building on this momentum by rapidly scaling its operations.

 

Management Comments

 

Dr. Ali Parsa, Founder and CEO of Babylon, commented, “We founded Babylon on a fundamental belief, that it is possible to make quality healthcare accessible and affordable for every person on earth by combining the latest in technology and the best in medical expertise. We have achieved one of the highest growth rates every year since our inception, with consistently high clinical outcomes and patient satisfaction. Becoming a public company is just another step in our journey. We are at the very beginning of our work to re-imagine our sector, to make it digital-first and prevention-first and shift the focus away from sick care to true health care.”

 

"Babylon's patient-first approach -- coupled with its focus on accessibility and affordability -- has made it one of the most exciting growth stories in health and technology," said Alkuri Global CEO Rich Williams. “When we founded Alkuri, we set out to identify high-potential, disruptive companies with visionary founders and strong teams. Babylon is all of those things, and we're excited to work with them on their truly world-changing mission.”

 

 

 

 

 

Transaction Overview

 

The transaction is expected to deliver up to $575 million of gross proceeds to fund Babylon’s pro forma balance sheet, including the contribution of up to $345 million of cash held in Alkuri Global’s trust account assuming no redemptions. The combination is further supported by a $230 million private placement (the “PIPE”) - funded over 85% from new, external institutional investors including AMF Pensionsförsäkring, Sectoral Asset Management and Swedbank Robur with strategic investor Palantir (NYSE:PLTR) - at $10.00 per share. There is additional participation from Ali Parsa, Alkuri Sponsors and existing Babylon investors Kinnevik (STO:KINV-B) and VNV (STO:VNV). In addition, Babylon previously acquired an option to purchase Higi, a consumer health engagement company, and intends to acquire the remaining Higi equity stake it does not already own. The major investors in Higi, including 7wire Ventures, Flare Capital Partners and William Wrigley, Jr., have agreed to accept shares in lieu of a portion of cash consideration if Babylon exercises its option. This agreement is expected to reduce Babylon’s cash needs by approximately $40 million.

 

Assuming no redemptions, taking existing cash and transaction fees into account, Babylon is expected to have approximately $540 million net cash on its balance sheet following the transaction, which will be used to pursue organic growth strategies as well as attractive and opportunistic acquisitions. The transaction reflects an initial pro forma equity value of approximately $4.2 billion and enterprise value of approximately $3.6 billion.

 

Existing Babylon shareholders will roll 100% of their equity into the combined company and will own approximately 84% of the pro forma company at closing.

 

The transaction, which has been unanimously approved by the Boards of Directors of both Babylon and Alkuri Global, is expected to close in the second half of 2021, subject to approval by Alkuri Global's stockholders and other customary closing conditions, including any applicable regulatory approvals. Following the closing of the proposed business combination, Babylon will retain its experienced management team. Dr. Parsa will continue to serve as Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board. An Alkuri Global representative will join the Babylon Board of Directors.

This communica tio n is restricted by law, it is not intended for distribution to, or use by any person in, any jurisdiction where such distribution or use would be contrary to local law or regulation. NEITHER THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION (“SEC”) NOR ANY STATE OR TERRITORIAL SECURITIES COMMISSION HAS APPROVED OR DIS APP ROVED OF THE SECURITIES OR DETERMINED IF THIS PRESENTATION IS TRUTHFUL OR COMPLETE. Forward Looking Statements . Forward - looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding Alkuri’s or Babylon’s expectations, hopes, be liefs, intentions, or strategies regarding the future. In addition, any statements that refer to projections, forecasts or ot her characterizations of future events or circumstances, including any underlying assumptions, are forward - looking statements. The w ords “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “might,” “plan,” “possible,” “poten tia l,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” “strive,” “would” and similar expressions may identify forward - looking statements, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward - looking. Forward - looking statements are predictions, projections and other statements about futu re events that are based on current expectations and assumptions and, as a result, are subject to risks and uncertainties. You should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described in the “Risk Factor” section of Alkuri’s registration statement on Form S - 1, the proxy statem ent/prospectus on Form F - 4 relating to the business combination, which his expected to by filed by Alkuri with the SEC and other documents filed by Alku ri from time to time with the SEC. These filings identify and address other important risks and uncertainties that could cause a ctu al events and results to differ materially from those contained in the forward - looking statements. Forward - looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. Readers are cautioned not to put undue reliance on forward - looking statements, and Alkuri and Babylon assume no obligatio n and do not intend to update or revise these forward - looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise. Neither Alkuri nor Babylon gives any assurance that either Alkuri or Babylon will achieve its expectations. Industry and Market Data . The data contained herein is derived from various internal and external sources. No representation is made as to the reason abl eness of the assumptions made within or the accuracy or completeness of any projections or modeling or any other information contained herein. Any data on past performance or modeling contained herein is not an indication as to future performance. Al kur i and Babylon assume no obligation to update the information in this presentation. Further, these financials were prepared by Ba bylon in accordance with private company AICPA standards. Babylon is currently in the process of uplifting its financials to comply with public compan y a nd SEC requirements. Use of Projections . The financial projections, estimates and targets in this presentation are forward - looking statements that are based on assumpt ions that are inherently subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond Alkuri’s and Babylo n’s control. While all financial projections, estimates and targets are necessarily speculative, Alkuri and Babylon believe that the prepa rat ion of prospective financial information involves increasingly higher levels of uncertainty the further out the projection, e sti mate or target extends from the date of preparation. The assumptions and estimates underlying the projected, expected or target results are inherently uncertain and are subject to a wide variety of significant business, economic and competitive risks and uncertainties that could cause actual r es ults to differ materially from those contained in the financial projections, estimates and targets, including risks and uncertainties related to the combine d b usiness’s ability to execute on its business strategy, attract customers, obtain regulatory approvals, scale its produce to c omp ete effectively commercially, manage growth and costs, and the duration and global impact of COVID - 19. The inclusion of financial projections, estimates and t argets in this presentation should not be regarded as an indication that Alkuri or Babylon, or their representatives, conside red or consider the financial projections, estimates and targets to be a reliable prediction of future events. IFRS Financial Statements. Babylon prepares its financial statements in accordance with international financial reporting standards (“IFRS”) and not in acc ordance with accounting principles general acceptable in the United States. In addition, this presentation contains certain n on - IFRS financial measures and key metrics relating to Babylon’s historical and projected future performance. A reconciliation o f t hese non - IFRS financial measures to the corresponding IFRS measures is presented where available, although the reconciliations a re not presented on a forward - looking basis because the various reconciling items are difficult to predict and subject to constant change. Use of Non - IFRS Financial Measures . This presentation includes certain financial measures to evaluate Babylon’s projected financial and operating performance, and measures calculated based on these measures, including adjusted EBITDA , that are not prepared in accordance with IFRS and that may be different from non - IFRS financial measures used by other companies. These non - IFRS measures, and other meas ures that are calculated using these non - IFRS measures, are an addition, and not a substitute for or superior to measures of fin ancial performance prepared in accordance with IFRS and should not be considered as an alternative to operating income, net income or any other per formance measures derived in accordance with IFRS. Babylon believes that these non - IFRS measures of financial results (including on a forward - looking basis) provide useful supplemental information to investors about Babylon. Additionally, to the extent that forward - looking non - IFRS financial measures are provided, they are presented on a non - IFRS basis without reconciliations of such forward - looking non - IFRS measures due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliations.

61 1. We have a history of net losses, we anticipate increasing expenses in the future, and we may not be able to achieve or mainta in profitability. 2. Our relatively limited operating history makes it difficult to evaluate our current business and future prospects and increas es the risk of your investment. 3. If we fail to effectively manage our growth, we may be unable to execute our business plan, adequately address competitive ch all enges or maintain our corporate culture, and our business, financial condition and results of operations would be harmed. 4. Our business and growth strategy depend on our ability to maintain and expand a network of qualified providers. If we are una ble to do so, our future growth would be limited and our business, financial condition and results of operations would be harmed. 5. We are dependent on our relationships with physician - owned entities, which are affiliated professional entities that we do not o wn, to hold contracts and provide healthcare services, and our business would be harmed if those relationships were disrupted. 6. If we are unable to attract new customers and expand member enrollment with existing customers, our revenue growth could be s low er than we expect, and our business may be adversely affected. 7. If our existing customers do not continue or renew their contracts with us, renew at lower fee levels or decline to purchase add itional applications and services from us, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. 8. Our revenue sources are highly concentrated, the loss of any of which would have a material adverse effect on our business, f ina ncial condition and results of operations. 9. Under many of our agreements with health plans, we assume some or all of the risk that the cost of providing services will ex cee d our compensation. Over time, we expect the proportion of risk - based revenue may increase. 10. We may face intense competition, which could limit our ability to maintain or expand market share within our industry, and if we do not maintain or expand our market share our business and operating results will be harmed. 11. If we are not able to develop and release new solutions and services, or successful enhancements, new features and modificati ons to our existing solutions and services, our business could be adversely affected. 12. There are significant risks associated with estimating the amount of revenue that we recognize under our risk - based agreements w ith health plans, and if our estimates of revenue are materially inaccurate, it could impact the timing and the amount of our revenue recognition or have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operatio ns and cash flows. 13. Security breaches, loss of data and other disruptions could compromise sensitive information related to our business or membe rs, or prevent us from accessing critical information and expose us to liability, which could adversely affect our business and our reputation. 14. Our use, disclosure, and other processing of personally identifiable information, including health information, is subject to HI PAA, the GDPR and the DPA 2018, and other privacy and security regulations, and our failure to comply with those regulations or to adequately secure the information we hold could result in significant liability or reputational harm and, i n t urn, a material adverse effect on our client base, member base and revenue. 15. If we are unable to obtain, maintain and enforce intellectual property protection for our technology or if the scope of our i nte llectual property protection is not sufficiently broad, others may be able to develop and commercialize technology substantially similar to ours, and our ability to successfully commercialize our technology may be adversely affected. 16.

PRESS RELEASE 3 June 2021

 

KINNEVIK'S PORTFOLIO COMPANY BABYLON HEALTH TO BECOME
PUBLICLY TRADED VIA A SPAC MERGER WITH ALKURI GLOBAL ACQUISITION CORP.

 

Kinnevik AB (publ) (“Kinnevik”) today announced that its portfolio company Babylon Health has entered into a definitive merger agreement with the special purpose acquisition company Alkuri Global Acquisition Corp., whereby Babylon Health will become a publicly traded company on Nasdaq. Kinnevik intends to invest USD 5m as part of a USD 230m private placement bringing Kinnevik’s ownership to 13% of Babylon Health when the transaction is finalised.

 

Babylon Health and Alkuri Global Acquisition Corp. (Nasdaq: KURI) (“Alkuri Global”), a special purpose acquisition company, have entered into a definitive merger agreement. Upon closing of the transaction, the combined company will operate as Babylon Health and plans to trade on Nasdaq under the new symbol “BBLN”. The transaction is expected to close in the second half of 2021, subject to approval by Alkuri Global's shareholders and other customary closing conditions, including any applicable regulatory approvals.

 

In line with recent media articles, the transaction values Babylon Health at an initial enterprise value of USD 3.6bn, and will provide Babylon Health with up to USD 575m in new capital supporting the company’s continued growth. In addition to funds from Alkuri Global’s trust account, USD 230m will be contributed through a private placement (the “PIPE”) at USD 10 per share. Kinnevik intends to invest USD 5m in the PIPE, bringing its ownership of Babylon Health at completion of the transaction to 13%.

 

In Kinnevik’s Interim Report for the First Quarter 2021, Kinnevik’s stake in Babylon Health was valued at SEK 2,680m (corresponding to USD 307m). At closing, Kinnevik is expected to own 54.9 million shares in the combined entity valued at USD 549m (corresponding to approximately SEK 4.5bn) at the reference share price of USD 10 per share. This corresponds to a value uplift in Kinnevik’s Net Asset Value in excess of SEK 1.8bn or SEK 6.60 per Kinnevik share.

 

Kinnevik’s CEO Georgi Ganev commented: “Since our first investment in 2016, we have been impressed with the vision and drive of the founder and CEO of Babylon Health, Ali Parsa, to fundamentally change the healthcare experience through digital transformation. Babylon Health will now be well capitalized to take the next step on its growth journey and we look forward to our continued cooperation.”

Exhibit 99.4

 

Press Release
03 June 2021

 

VNV Global’s portfolio company Babylon to become publicly traded via SPAC merger with Alkuri Global Acquisition Corp.

 

VNV Global AB’s (publ) (“VNV Global”) largest holding, Babylon Holdings Limited (“Babylon”) and Alkuri Global Acquisition Corp. (NASDAQ:KURI) (“Alkuri”), a publicly-traded special purpose acquisition company, have today announced that they have entered into a definitive merger agreement that would make Babylon a publicly-traded company. Upon closing of the transaction, the combined company will operate as Babylon and plans to trade on Nasdaq under the new symbol “BBLN”. The transaction is expected to close in the second half of 2021, subject to Alkuri shareholder approval and satisfaction of other customary closing conditions, including any applicable regulatory approvals.

 

Alkuri will contribute USD 345 million of cash in trust assuming no redemptions, and a further USD 230 million in capital, including USD 5 million from VNV Global, has been committed through a private investment in public equity (“PIPE”) at USD 10 per share.

 

The transaction implies a pro forma enterprise valuation for Babylon of approximately USD 3.6 billion and pro forma equity value of USD 4.2 billion. The merger agreement contemplates that existing Babylon shareholders, including VNV Global will roll-over and retain 100% of their existing equity owning approximately 84% of the combined company’s pro forma equity. The combined entity is estimated to have up to USD 540 million of cash following the closing.

 

At closing, VNV Global is expected to, directly and indirectly, own 43.2 million shares in the combined entity which implies a valuation of USD 432.2 million for VNV Global’s holding at the reference share price of USD 10 per share.

 

At the reference share price of USD 10 per share, the transaction is expected to have a positive impact on VNV Global’s Net Asset Value (“NAV”) and result in a positive revaluation of VNV Global’s total holding in Babylon by approximately USD 14.5 million which corresponds to 1.2% increase in total USD NAV compared to the latest reported USD NAV as per March 31, 2021.

 

VNV Global’s CEO, Per Brilioth, comments:

 

“We are excited to see Babylon on the verge of entering this new chapter on its journey as a publicly- traded company. The company is continuing to perform and grow rapidly, especially in the US, and with this transaction Babylon will have a significant cash balance that will enable the company to further accelerate this trajectory. We still believe that Babylon is only at the beginning stages of its journey, and we continue to see significant upside potential over the coming years”.

35 1. We have a history of net losses, we anticipate increasing expenses in the future, and we may not be able to achieve or mainta in profitability. 2. Our relatively limited operating history makes it difficult to evaluate our current business and future prospects and increas es the risk of your investment. 3. If we fail to effectively manage our growth, we may be unable to execute our business plan, adequately address competitive ch all enges or maintain our corporate culture, and our business, financial condition and results of operations would be harmed. 4. Our business and growth strategy depend on our ability to maintain and expand a network of qualified providers. If we are una ble to do so, our future growth would be limited and our business, financial condition and results of operations would be harmed. 5. We are dependent on our relationships with physician - owned entities, which are affiliated professional entities that we do not o wn, to hold contracts and provide healthcare services, and our business would be harmed if those relationships were disrupted. 6. If we are unable to attract new customers and expand member enrollment with existing customers, our revenue growth could be s low er than we expect, and our business may be adversely affected. 7. If our existing customers do not continue or renew their contracts with us, renew at lower fee levels or decline to purchase add itional applications and services from us, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. 8. Our revenue sources are highly concentrated, the loss of any of which would have a material adverse effect on our business, f ina ncial condition and results of operations. 9. Under many of our agreements with health plans, we assume some or all of the risk that the cost of providing services will ex cee d our compensation. Over time, we expect the proportion of risk - based revenue may increase. 10. We may face intense competition, which could limit our ability to maintain or expand market share within our industry, and if we do not maintain or expand our market share our business and operating results will be harmed. 11. If we are not able to develop and release new solutions and services, or successful enhancements, new features and modificati ons to our existing solutions and services, our business could be adversely affected. 12. There are significant risks associated with estimating the amount of revenue that we recognize under our risk - based agreements w ith health plans, and if our estimates of revenue are materially inaccurate, it could impact the timing and the amount of our revenue recognition or have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operatio ns and cash flows. 13. Security breaches, loss of data and other disruptions could compromise sensitive information related to our business or membe rs, or prevent us from accessing critical information and expose us to liability, which could adversely affect our business and our reputation. 14. Our use, disclosure, and other processing of personally identifiable information, including health information, is subject to HI PAA, the GDPR and the DPA 2018, and other privacy and security regulations, and our failure to comply with those regulations or to adequately secure the information we hold could result in significant liability or reputational harm and, i n t urn, a material adverse effect on our client base, member base and revenue. 15. If we are unable to obtain, maintain and enforce intellectual property protection for our technology or if the scope of our i nte llectual property protection is not sufficiently broad, others may be able to develop and commercialize technology substantially similar to ours, and our ability to successfully commercialize our technology may be adversely affected. 16. We may become subject to medical liability claims, which could cause us to incur significant expenses and may require us to p ay significant damages if not covered by insurance. 17. We have been and may in the future become subject to litigation or regulatory investigation, which could harm our business. 18. We rely on internet infrastructure, bandwidth providers, third - party computer hardware and software and other third parties for providing services to our customers and members, and any failure or interruption in the services provided by these third parties could expose us to litigation and negatively impact our relationships with customers and members, adversely aff ect ing our operating results. 19. We conduct business in a heavily regulated industry and if we fail to comply with these laws and government regulations, we c oul d incur penalties or be required to make significant changes to our operations or experience adverse publicity, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. 20. The impact of recent healthcare reform legislation and other changes in the healthcare industry and in healthcare spending on us is currently unknown, but may adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. 21. We depend on our talent to grow and operate our business, and if we are unable to hire, integrate, develop, motivate and reta in our personnel, we may not be able to grow effectively.
