The Merger shall become effective on the date and time at which the Certificate of Merger is accepted for filing by the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware or at such later date and/or time as is agreed by BOA and the Merger Sub and specified in the Certificate of Merger (the time the Merger becomes effective being referred to herein as the “Effective Time”).

(c)           The Merger shall have the effects set forth in Section 251 of the DGCL. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and subject thereto, at the Effective Time, all of the assets, properties, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of Merger Sub and BOA shall vest in the Surviving Corporation and all debts, liabilities, obligations, restrictions, disabilities and duties of each of Merger Sub and BOA shall become the debts, liabilities, obligations and duties of the Surviving Corporation, in each case, in accordance with the DGCL.

(d)            At the Effective Time, the Governing Documents of the Surviving Corporation shall be amended and restated to be in the form of the Governing Documents of Merger Sub as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, except all references to the name of Merger Sub shall be replaced by the name of the Surviving Corporation, until thereafter changed or amended as provided therein or by applicable Law.

(e)            At the Effective Time, the directors and officers of Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the initial directors and officers of the Surviving Corporation, each to hold office in accordance with the Governing Documents of the Surviving Corporation until such director’s or officer’s successor is duly elected or appointed and qualified, or until the earlier of their death, resignation or removal.

(f)           At the Effective Time, as a result of the Merger, each share of BOA Class A Common Stock issued and outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (after giving effect to the BOA Class B Conversion and the BOA Stockholder Redemption) shall be deemed exchanged for, and the holder of each such share of BOA Class A Common Stock shall be entitled to receive from the Exchange Agent and become the registered holder of, for each BOA Class A Share, one (1) Company Ordinary Share (the “Merger Consideration”), following which, each BOA Class A Share shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and shall cease to exist by virtue of the Merger, and each former holder of BOA Class A Shares shall thereafter cease to have any rights with respect to such securities, except as otherwise provided herein or by applicable Law. The Company shall use reasonable best efforts to cause the Company Ordinary Shares issued pursuant to this Section 2.2(f) to be issued in book-entry (non-certificated) form as of the Effective Time. From and after the Effective Time, the holder(s) of certificates, if any, evidencing ownership of BOA Common Stock or BOA Common Stock held in book-entry form issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (after giving effect to the BOA Class B Conversion and the BOA Stockholder Redemption) shall cease to have any rights with respect to such shares except as otherwise provided for herein or under applicable Law.

(g)            At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of any Party or any other Person, each share of BOA Common Stock held immediately prior to the Effective Time by BOA as treasury stock shall be automatically canceled and extinguished, and no consideration shall be paid with respect thereto.

(h)            At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of any Party or any other Person, each share of capital stock of Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be automatically cancelled and extinguished and converted into one share of Surviving Corporation Common Stock. The shares of Surviving Corporation Common Stock shall have the same rights, powers and privileges as the shares so converted and shall constitute the only issued and outstanding share capital of the Surviving Corporation.

(i)            At the Effective Time, as a result of the Merger and without any action on the part of any holder of a BOA Warrant, each BOA Warrant that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall automatically and irrevocably be assigned to, and assumed by, the Company and be exercisable for Company Ordinary Shares in accordance with the terms of the Amended and Restated Warrant Agreement.

(j)            No dissenter’s rights, appraisal rights or other similar rights shall be available with respect to the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(k)            The Conversion Factor shall be adjusted to reflect appropriately the effect of any share subdivision, reverse subdivision, dividend or distribution (including any dividend or distribution of securities convertible into Company Ordinary Shares), reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, combination, exchange of shares or other like change (in each case, other than the Capital Restructuring) with respect to any securities issued or allotted by the Company occurring on or after the date hereof and prior to the Closing. In furtherance of and without limiting the foregoing, if after the date hereof and prior to the Effective Time, BOA pays a stock dividend in, splits, combines into a smaller number of shares, or issues by reclassification any shares of BOA Common Stock, then the Merger Consideration will be appropriately adjusted to provide to the holders of the BOA Common Stock the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such action, and as so adjusted will, from and after the date of such event, be the Merger Consideration subject to further adjustment in accordance with this provision.

Section 2.3             Closing of the Transactions Contemplated by this Agreement. The closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Closing”) shall take place electronically by exchange of the closing deliverables by the means provided in Section 8.11 as promptly as reasonably practicable, but in no event later than the third (3^rd) Business Day, following the satisfaction (or, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, waiver) of the conditions set forth in Article 6 (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to satisfaction or waiver of such conditions) (the “Closing Date”) or at such other place, date and/or time as BOA and the Company may agree in writing.

Section 2.4             Delivery of Merger Consideration.

(a)            Prior to the Closing, the Company shall appoint a Person reasonably acceptable to BOA to act as exchange agent for the payment of the Merger Consideration (the “Exchange Agent”) (it being understood and agreed, for the avoidance of doubt, that Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (or any of its Affiliates) shall be deemed to be acceptable to the Company) and enter into an exchange agent agreement with the Exchange Agent (the “Exchange Agent Agreement”) for the purpose of exchanging Certificates, if any, representing the BOA Class A Shares and each BOA Class A Share held in book-entry form on the stock transfer books of the BOA immediately prior to the Effective Time, in either case, for the portion of the Merger Consideration issuable in respect of such BOA Class A Shares pursuant to Section 2.2(f) and on the terms and subject to the other conditions set forth in this Agreement.

(b)           Prior to or at the Effective Time, the Company shall deposit (or cause to be deposited) book-entry Company Ordinary Shares representing the aggregate Merger Consideration with the Exchange Agent, in trust for the benefit of holders of record of shares of BOA Class A Common Stock to be canceled and converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.2. All book-entry Company Ordinary Shares deposited with the Exchange Agent are referred to in this Agreement as the “Exchange Fund.” The Exchange Fund shall not be used for any purpose other than to fund payments pursuant to Section 2.2, except as expressly provided for in this Agreement.

(c)            As soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time and in any event not later than the third (3^rd) Business Day thereafter, the Company shall cause the Exchange Agent to mail to each holder of record of a certificate (“Certificates”), in each case that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented outstanding shares of BOA Class A Common Stock (i) a Letter of Transmittal (which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title shall pass, only upon proper delivery of the Certificates to the Exchange Agent, and which letter shall be in customary form and contain such other provisions as the Company and the Exchange Agent may reasonably specify) and (ii) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of Certificates in exchange for the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.2 (which instructions shall be in customary form and contain such other provisions as the Company and the Exchange Agent may reasonably specify). With respect to holders of book-entry shares in BOA (“Book-Entry Shares”), the Parties shall cooperate to establish procedures with the Exchange Agent to allow the Exchange Agent to transmit, following the Effective Time, to such holders or their nominees, upon surrender of shares of BOA Class A Common Stock (including former shares of BOA Class B Common stock converted immediately prior to the Effective Time into shares of BOA Class A Common Stock), the Merger Consideration, to which such holders are entitled pursuant to the terms hereof.

(d)            Each holder of shares of BOA Class A Common Stock that have been canceled and converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration, upon proper surrender of a Certificate or Book-Entry Shares to the Exchange Agent, and such other documents as the Exchange Agent may reasonably require, shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor the number of Company Ordinary Shares to which such holder of BOA Class A Common Stock shall have become entitled pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.2 (which shall be in uncertificated book-entry form), and the Certificate or Book-Entry Shares so surrendered shall forthwith be cancelled. No interest will be paid or accrued on any Merger Consideration payable to holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares. The Company shall cause the Exchange Agent to make all payments required pursuant to the preceding sentence as soon as practicable following the valid surrender of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 2.4, each Certificate or Book-Entry Share shall be deemed after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive the Merger Consideration payable pursuant to Section 2.2 in respect thereof, but shall not entitle its holder or any other Person to any rights as a stockholder of the Company or BOA.

(e)            If payment of the Merger Consideration is to be made to a Person other than the Person in whose name the surrendered Certificate or Book-Entry Share is registered, it shall be a condition of payment that such Certificate so surrendered shall be properly endorsed or shall be otherwise in proper form for transfer or such Book-Entry Share shall be properly transferred and that the Person requesting such payment shall have paid any transfer and other Taxes required by reason of the payment of the Merger Consideration to a Person other than the registered holder of such Certificate or Book-Entry Share or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Company and the Exchange Agent that such Tax is not applicable.

(f)           The Merger Consideration issued and paid upon the surrender for exchange of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares in accordance with the terms of this Article II shall be deemed to have been issued and paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to the shares of BOA Class A Common Stock formerly represented by such Certificates or Book-Entry Shares. At the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of BOA shall be closed and there shall be no further registration of transfers of the shares of BOA Class A Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates are presented to the Company or the Exchange Agent for transfer, or transfer is sought for Book-Entry Shares, such Certificates or Book-Entry Shares shall be cancelled and exchanged as provided in this Article II.

(g)            Any portion of the Exchange Fund that remains undistributed to the holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares one (1) year after the Effective Time shall be delivered to the Company, upon demand, and any remaining holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares shall thereafter look only to the Company, as general creditors thereof, for payment of the Merger Consideration. None of the Company, the Surviving Corporation, the Exchange Agent or any other Person shall be liable to any Person in respect of Company Ordinary Shares properly delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law.

(h)           If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Company and the Exchange Agent, of that fact by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed, the Exchange Agent will deliver in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate the Merger Consideration payable in respect thereof.

(i)             Payments pursuant to this Section 2.4 shall be made after giving effect to any required tax withholdings under Section 2.6.

Section 2.5             Treatment of Company Equity Plans.

(a)            Prior to the Closing, the Company shall take, or cause to be taken, all necessary or appropriate actions under the Company Equity Plans, under the underlying grant, award or similar agreement and otherwise to give effect to the provisions of Section 2.1(c) relating to Continuing Options and Restricted Shares. The Company shall terminate the Global Option Plan effective as of and subject to the Closing, so that no further awards may be granted under the Global Option Plan following the Closing; provided, however, that the Continuing Options and the Restricted Shares shall continue to be subject to the provisions of the Global Option Plan until they expire, are exercised or forfeited.

(b)            In accordance with the terms of the Phantom Share Plan, any and all outstanding unvested awards of phantom shares granted under the Phantom Share Plan (the “Phantom Shares”) as of the Closing Date shall become vested and nonforfeitable on the Closing Date. The Company shall take, or cause to be taken, all necessary or appropriate actions under the Phantom Share Plan and underlying award agreements to pay to the holder of each Phantom Share on or as soon as administratively feasible after the Closing Date, but in any event within thirty (30) days following the Closing Date, an amount in cash as shall be determined in accordance with the terms of the Phantom Share Plan, subject to applicable Tax withholdings; provided, however, that such holder has, on or prior to the thirtieth (30^th) day following the Closing Date, executed and delivered to the Company a release of claims, in a form satisfactory to BOA (the “Release”), and such Release has become effective and irrevocable by its terms. For the avoidance of doubt, no holder of Phantom Shares shall be entitled to any payment under the Phantom Share Plan, and such holder’s Phantom Shares shall be cancelled in full without consideration payable therefor, if the holder has not executed and delivered the Release to the Company, or the Release has not become irrevocable by its terms, on or before the thirtieth (30^th) day following the Closing Date. The Company shall terminate the Phantom Share Plan effective as of and subject to the Closing.

Section 2.6             Withholding. The Surviving Corporation, the Company, Merger Sub, the Exchange Agent and their respective Affiliates shall be entitled to deduct and withhold (or cause to be deducted and withheld) from any consideration payable pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as are required to be deducted and withheld under applicable Tax Law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made. Any sum which is withheld as permitted by this Section 2.6 shall be remitted to the appropriate Tax Authority. The Parties shall cooperate in good faith to eliminate or reduce any such deduction or withholding (including through the request and provision of any statements, forms or other documents to reduce or eliminate any such deduction or withholding).

The indemnification and liability limitation or exculpation provisions of the Governing Documents of BOA, the Surviving Corporation and the Company shall not, during such six (6)-year period, be amended, repealed or otherwise modified following the Effective Time in any manner that would materially and adversely affect the rights thereunder of individuals who, as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, or at any time prior to such time, were directors or officers of BOA or the Company (the “D&O Indemnified Persons”) entitled to be so indemnified, have their liability limited or be exculpated with respect to any matters occurring on or prior to the Effective Time and relating to the fact that such D&O Indemnified Person was a director or officer of BOA or the Company on or prior to the Effective Time, unless such amendment, repeal or other modification is required by applicable Law.

(c)            For a period of six (6) years following the Effective Time, the Company shall purchase or maintain, or cause to be purchased or maintained, as the case may be, without any lapses in coverage, directors’ and officers’ liability insurance for the benefit of those Persons who are covered by any comparable insurance policies of BOA or the Company, as the case may be, in effect as of the date of this Agreement with respect to matters occurring on or prior to the Effective Time. Such insurance policies shall provide coverage on terms (with respect to coverage and amount) that are substantially the same as (and no less favorable in the aggregate to the Persons covered thereby than) the coverage provided under such corresponding directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies in effect as of the date of this Agreement; provided that neither the Company nor the Surviving Corporation shall be obligated to pay annual premiums in excess of three hundred percent (300%) of the most recent annual premium paid by BOA or the Company prior to the date of this Agreement and, in such event, the Company shall purchase, or cause to be purchased, the maximum coverage available for three hundred percent (300%) of the most recent annual premium paid by BOA or the Company prior to the date of this Agreement.

(d)            If the Company or any of its successors or assigns (i) shall merge or consolidate with or merge into any other corporation or entity and shall not be the surviving or continuing corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or (ii) shall transfer all or substantially all of their respective properties and assets as an entity in one or a series of related transactions to any Person, then in each such case, proper provisions shall be made so that the successors or assigns of the Company shall assume all of the obligations set forth in this Section 5.14.

(e)            The D&O Indemnified Persons entitled to the indemnification, liability limitation, exculpation or insurance coverage set forth in this Section 5.14 are intended to be third-party beneficiaries of this Section 5.14.

(a)            Each of BOA and the Company shall take all such action within its power as may be necessary or appropriate such that effective immediately after the Effective Time: (i) the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Post-Closing Company Board”) shall, subject to and in accordance with the Amended and Restated Articles of Association and applicable Law (including, in each case, any adjustments that may be necessary to comply with and/or conform to the applicable requirements of English Law), consist of seven (7) directors, which shall be divided into three (3) classes, designated Class I, II and III, with Class I consisting of two (2) directors, Class II consisting of two (2) directors and Class III consisting of three (3) directors; (ii) the members of the Post-Closing Company Board are the individuals determined in accordance with Section 5.15(b), Section 5.15(c) and Section 5.15(d); (iii) the members of the compensation committee, audit committee and nominating committee of the Post-Closing Company Board are the individuals determined in accordance with Section 5.15(e); and (iv) the officers of the Post-Closing Company (the “Officers”) are the individuals determined in accordance with Section 5.15(f).

Prior to the time at which the Registration Statement / Proxy Statement is declared effective under the Securities Act, the Company may, by giving BOA and the BOA Sponsor written notice, replace any Company Designee with any other individual and, upon the Company so giving notice of the replacement of such Company Designee, Section 5.15(b) of the Company Disclosure Schedules shall automatically be deemed amended to include such replacement individual as a Company Designee in lieu of, and to serve in the same class of directors as, the individual so replaced. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary herein, unless otherwise agreed in writing by BOA and the BOA Sponsor, in no event shall there be more than two (2) Company Designees that would not qualify as “independent directors” under the listing rules of NYSE immediately after the Effective Time (whether as a result of the replacement of any Company Designee as contemplated by this Section 5.15(b) or otherwise).

(c)            The individual identified on Section 5.15(c) of the Company Disclosure Schedules shall be a director on the Post-Closing Company Board immediately after the Effective Time, with such individual being in the class of directors set forth opposite his or her name (the “Company CEO Designee”). The Company CEO Designee may not be replaced with any individual without the prior written consent of the Company and BOA; provided, however, that neither the Company nor BOA shall unreasonably withhold, condition or delay its consent to the replacement of the Company CEO Designee with any individual that is hired by the Company as a replacement Chief Executive Officer prior to the Closing as a result of the death, disability or termination of employment for cause by the Company of the initial Company CEO Designee.

(d)            Prior to the time at which the Registration Statement / Proxy Statement is declared effective under the Securities Act, the BOA Sponsor shall designate two (2) individuals, selected from the agreed list of individuals as set out in the Transaction Support Agreements and in accordance with the terms thereof, to serve as directors on the Post-Closing Company Board, in each case, immediately after the Effective Time (the “BOA Designees”), each of whom shall qualify as “independent directors” under the listing rules of NYSE immediately after the Effective Time.

(e)            Prior to the time at which the Registration Statement / Proxy Statement is declared effective under the Securities Act, the Company shall (i) designate each director that will serve on the compensation committee, the audit committee and the nominating committee of the Post-Closing Company Board immediately after the Effective Time, subject to applicable listing rules of NYSE and applicable Federal Securities Laws, and (ii) divide each of the directors serving on the Post-Closing Company Board into their respective classes in accordance with the terms hereof and the Ancillary Documents.

(f)            The individuals identified on Section 5.15(f) of the Company Disclosure Schedules shall be Officers immediately after the Effective Time, with each such individual holding the title set forth opposite his or her name. In the event that any such individual identified on Section 5.15(f) of the Company Disclosure Schedules is unwilling or unable (whether due to death, disability or otherwise) to serve as an Officer, then, prior to the time at which the Registration Statement / Proxy Statement is declared effective under the Securities Act, the Company may, with the prior written consent of BOA Sponsor (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), replace such individual with another individual to serve as such Officer and, if the BOA Sponsor provides its consent to the replacement of such Officer, then Section 5.15(f) of the Company Disclosure Schedules shall automatically be deemed amended to include such replacement individual as an Officer in lieu of, and to serve with the same title as, the individual so replaced.

Section 5.20          Company Governing Documents. Subject to the Company Shareholder Resolutions being duly passed, prior to the Effective Time the Company shall cause the amended and restated articles of association (in a form which, in the reasonable opinion of the Company Board, is customary and desirable for an NYSE traded company) (the “Amended and Restated Articles of Association”), to be filed and, subject to the PLC Conversion becoming effective, become effective in accordance with applicable Law.

Section 5.21          PLC Conversion. The Company will take all actions reasonably necessary in order for the conversion of the Company from a UK Societas to a public limited company (the “PLC Conversion”) to become effective as soon as reasonably practicable, and in any event prior to the Closing Date.

Each of the Parties irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Chancery Court of the State of Delaware (or, if the Chancery Court of the State of Delaware declines to accept jurisdiction, any state or federal court within State of New York, New York County), for the purposes of any Proceeding, claim, demand, action or cause of action (a) arising under this Agreement or under any Ancillary Document or (b) in any way connected with or related or incidental to the dealings of the Parties in respect of this Agreement or any Ancillary Document or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or any of the transactions contemplated thereby, and irrevocably and unconditionally waives any objection to the laying of venue of any such Proceeding in any such court, and further irrevocably and unconditionally waives and agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that any such Proceeding has been brought in an inconvenient forum. Each Party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, and agrees not to assert, by way of motion or as a defense, counterclaim or otherwise, in any Proceeding claim, demand, action or cause of action against such Party (i) arising under this Agreement or under any Ancillary Document or (ii) in any way connected with or related or incidental to the dealings of the Parties in respect of this Agreement or any Ancillary Document or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or any of the transactions contemplated thereby, (A) any claim that such Party is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the courts as described in this Section 8.16 for any reason, (B) that such Party or such Party’s property is exempt or immune from the jurisdiction of any such court or from any legal process commenced in such courts (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise) and (C) that (x) the Proceeding, claim, demand, action or cause of action in any such court is brought against such Party in an inconvenient forum, (y) the venue of such Proceeding, claim, demand, action or cause of action against such Party is improper or (z) this Agreement, or the subject matter hereof, may not be enforced against such Party in or by such courts.

Section 8.17     Remedies. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, any and all remedies provided herein will be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred hereby, or by law or equity upon such Party, and the exercise by a Party of any one remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other remedy. The Parties agree that irreparable damage for which monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy, would occur in the event that the Parties do not perform their respective obligations under the provisions of this Agreement (including failing to take such actions as are required of them hereunder to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) in accordance with their specific terms or otherwise breach such provisions. It is accordingly agreed that the Parties shall be entitled to seek an injunction or injunctions, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement, in each case, without posting a bond or undertaking and without proof of damages and this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity. Each of the Parties agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief when expressly available pursuant to the terms of this Agreement on the basis that the other parties have an adequate remedy at law or an award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at law or equity.

Section 8.18     Trust Account Waiver. Reference is made to the final prospectus of BOA, filed with the SEC (File Nos. 333-252739 and 333-253423) on February 24, 2021 (the “Prospectus”). The Company acknowledges and agrees and understands that BOA 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) for the benefit of BOA’s public stockholders (including overallotment shares acquired by BOA’s underwriters, the “Public Stockholders”), and BOA may disburse monies from the Trust Account only in the express circumstances described in the Prospectus. For and in consideration of BOA entering into this Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the Company agrees on behalf of itself and its Representatives that, notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary in this Agreement, none of the Company nor any of its Representatives does now or shall at any time hereafter have any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies in the Trust Account or distributions therefrom, or make any claim against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom), regardless of whether such claim arises as a result of, in connection with or relating in any way to, this Agreement or any proposed or actual business relationship between BOA or any of its Representatives, on the one hand, and, the Company or any of its Representatives, on the other hand, or any other matter, and regardless of whether such claim arises based on contract, tort, equity or any other theory of legal liability (any and all such claims are collectively referred to hereafter as the “Trust Account Released Claims”). The Company, on its own behalf and on behalf of its Representatives, hereby irrevocably waives any Trust Account Released Claims that it or any of its Representatives may have against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) now or in the future as a result of, or arising out of, any negotiations, or Contracts with BOA or its Representatives and will not seek recourse against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) for any reason whatsoever (including for an alleged breach of any agreement with BOA or its Affiliates).
