Item 1.01

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On October 27, 2020, dMY Technology Group, Inc. II, a Delaware corporation (“dMY”), entered into a Business Combination Agreement (the “Business Combination Agreement”) with Maven Topco Limited, a company incorporated under the laws of Guernsey (the “Company”), Maven Midco Limited, a private limited company incorporated under the laws of England and Wales (“MidCo”), Galileo NewCo Limited, a company incorporated under the laws of Guernsey (“NewCo”), Genius Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of NewCo (“Merger Sub” and, together with the Company, MidCo and NewCo, the “Target Companies”), and dMY Sponsor II, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Sponsor”). The transactions contemplated by the Business Combination are referred to herein as the “Business Combination.” Capitalized terms used in this report without definition shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Business Combination Agreement.

Business Combination Agreement

Consideration and Structure

Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, subject to the terms and conditions therein, prior to the closing of the Business Combination (the “Closing”), the Company will undergo a pre-closing reorganization (the “Reorganization”) wherein all existing classes of shares of the Company (except for certain preference shares of the Company which will be redeemed and cancelled as part of the Reorganization (the “Redemption”)) will be exchanged for newly issued ordinary shares of NewCo (“NewCo ordinary shares”). As described in the Business Combination Agreement, solely with respect to the shares of the Company that are unvested prior to such reorganization and provided that the holders of such shares have executed and delivered support agreements agreeing to the vesting and restrictions provisions therein, such shares shall be exchanged for NewCo ordinary shares but shall be subject to the vesting and restrictions as set forth therein (“Restricted Shares”). Following the Reorganization, upon the closing of the Business Combination, the shareholders of the Company will hold: (1) that number of NewCo ordinary shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (i) $1,400,000,000 less the amount needed to repay certain Company shareholder loans, less the amount used to pay for the Redemption and less the amount, if any, to repurchase certain NewCo ordinary shares, in each case, in accordance with the terms of the Business Combination Agreement, by (ii) $10.00, and (2) the Restricted Shares. As described in the Business Combination Agreement, Available Distributable Cash (where Available Distributable Cash means the cash in dMY’s trust account, less amounts required for the dMY Share Redemptions plus the aggregate proceeds received by NewCo from the PIPE Investment (as defined below)) shall be disbursed or allocated (including to NewCo’s balance sheet) in accordance with a distribution and allocation waterfall as more specifically set forth in the Business Combination Agreement.

Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions set forth therein, the following shall occur: (a) effective as of immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time, dMY’s issued and outstanding shares of dMY Class B common stock, subject to the terms of the Founder Holder Consent Letter (as defined and described below), will convert automatically on a one-for-one basis into shares of dMY Class A common stock; and (b) on the Closing Date, Merger Sub will merge with and into dMY, with dMY continuing as the surviving company, as a result of which (i) dMY will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of NewCo; (ii) each issued and outstanding unit of dMY, consisting of one share of dMY Class A common stock and one-third of one warrant (the “dMY warrants”), shall be automatically detached, (iii) each issued and outstanding share of dMY Class A common stock, will be converted into the right to receive one NewCo ordinary share; (iv) each issued and outstanding dMY warrant to purchase a share of dMY Class A common stock will become exercisable for one NewCo ordinary share (the “NewCo warrants”); and (v) dMY and NewCo will each change its name to a mutually agreed upon name.

Representations, Warranties and Covenants

The parties to the Business Combination Agreement have agreed to customary representations and warranties for transactions of this type. The representations and warranties made under the Business Combination Agreement will not survive the Closing, and no party to the Business Combination Agreement will have any


liabilities to such other parties, other than claims for fraud, with respect to the making of its applicable representations and warranties. In addition, the parties to the Business Combination Agreement agreed to be bound by certain customary covenants for transactions of this type, including, among others, covenants with respect to the conduct of the Company, NewCo, dMY and their respective subsidiaries during the period between execution of the Business Combination Agreement and the Closing. The covenants made under the Business Combination Agreement will not survive the Closing, unless by their terms they are to be performed in whole or in part after the Closing. Each of the parties to the Business Combination Agreement has agreed to use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Business Combination to be consummated after the date of the execution of the Business Combination Agreement in the most expeditious manner practicable.

Conditions to Closing

Under the Business Combination Agreement, the obligations of the parties (or, in some cases, some of the parties) to consummate the Business Combination are subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain customary closing conditions of the respective parties, including, without limitation: (i) the approval and adoption of the Business Combination Agreement and transactions contemplated thereby and certain other matters by the requisite vote of dMY’s stockholders; (ii) the effectiveness of the Registration Statement (as defined below); (iii) the approval of the listing of the NewCo ordinary shares and NewCo warrants on the New York Stock Exchange; (iv) dMY having Minimum Cash equaling at least $315 million (where Minimum Cash means the cash in dMY’s trust account, less amounts required for the dMY Share Redemptions and less 33% of the aggregate amount of transaction expenses incurred by the parties to the Business Combination Agreement plus the aggregate proceeds received by NewCo from the PIPE Investment (as defined below)); and (v) material compliance by the parties with their respective covenants, and the accuracy of each party’s representations and warranties in the Business Combination Agreement, in each case subject to certain materiality standards contained in the Business Combination Agreement.

Termination

The Business Combination Agreement may be terminated under certain customary and limited circumstances at any time prior to the Closing, including, without limitation, (i) upon the mutual written consent of the Company and dMY, (ii) by dMY, on the one hand, or the Company, on the other hand, as a result of certain material breaches by the counterparties to the Business Combination Agreement that remain uncured after any applicable cure period and (iii) by the Company or dMY if the Closing has not occurred on or before the date that is the June 11, 2021; provided, however, that such termination right is not available to the applicable party if such party is in material breach of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements under the Business Combination Agreement.

The foregoing description of the Business Combination Agreement and the Business Combination does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the terms and conditions of the Business Combination Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 2.1 and is incorporated herein by reference. The Business Combination Agreement contains representations, warranties and covenants that the respective parties made to each other as of the date of such agreement or other specific dates. The assertions embodied in those representations, warranties and covenants were made for purposes of the contract among the respective parties and are subject to important qualifications and limitations agreed to by the parties in connection with negotiating the Business Combination Agreement. It is not intended to provide any other factual information about the parties to the Business Combination Agreement. In particular, the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained in the Business Combination Agreement, which were made only for purposes of the Business Combination Agreement and as of specific dates, were solely for the benefit of the parties to the Business Combination 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 Business Combination 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 Business Combination Agreement. In addition, the representations, warranties, covenants and


agreements and other terms of the Business Combination 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 Business Combination Agreement, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in dMY’s public disclosures.

Other Agreements

The Business Combination Agreement contemplates the execution of various additional agreements and instruments, on or before the Closing, including, among others, the below:

Founder Holders Forfeiture Agreement

In connection with the execution of the Business Combination Agreement, dMY’s initial stockholders (including the Sponsor) (the “Founder Holders”), NewCo and dMY have entered into the Founder Holders Forfeiture Agreement (the “Founder Holders Forfeiture Agreement”), pursuant to which the Founder Holders have agreed to forfeit for no consideration up to 1,035,000 shares of dMY Class A Common Stock in the aggregate to the extent that the Minimum Cash does not equal at least $415,000,000 (as more fully described in the Founder Holders Forfeiture Agreement).

The foregoing description of the Founder Holders Forfeiture Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the terms and conditions of the Founder Holders Forfeiture Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

Founder Holders Consent Letter

In connection with the execution of the Business Combination Agreement, the Founder Holders, NewCo and dMY have entered into the Founder Holders Consent Letter (the “Founder Holders Consent Letter”), pursuant to which, among other things, the Founder Holders have agreed to waive any and all anti-dilution rights described in dMY’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation with respect to the shares of dMY Class A common stock held by the Founder Holders (which shares of dMY Class A common stock are issued immediately prior to the Closing upon the automatic conversion of the shares of dMY Class B common stock held by the Founder Holders).

The foregoing description of the Founder Holders Consent Letter does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the terms and conditions of the Founder Holders Consent Letter, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.2 and is incorporated herein by reference.

Investor Rights Agreement

At the Closing, dMY, the Founder Holders, Maven TopHoldings SARL (“Apax”), certain shareholders who are officers and employees of the Target Companies (“Management”), certain other existing shareholders of the Company (the “Co-Investors”, and together with Apax and Management, the “Sellers”), and NewCo will enter into an Investor Rights Agreement (the “Investor Rights Agreement”), pursuant to which, among other things, (i) dMY and the Founder Holders will agree to terminate the Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of August 13, 2020, entered into in connection with dMY’s initial public offering, (ii) NewCo will provide certain registration rights for the NewCo ordinary shares and NewCo warrants held by the parties to the Investor Rights Agreement, (iii) at the Closing, the the board of directors of NewCo will be comprised of two directors designated by the Sponsor, six directors designated by the Sellers, and the Chief Executive Officer of NewCo; (iv) Management, the Founder Holders, Apax and the Co-Investors will agree not to transfer, sell, assign or otherwise dispose of the NewCo ordinary shares held by such person for 12 months following the Closing (with respect to Management and Founder Holders) and 6 months following the Closing (with respect to Apax and the Co-Investors), in each case subject to certain exceptions and as more fully described in the Investor Rights Agreement.


Transaction Support Agreement

In connection with the execution of the Business Combination Agreement, NewCo, the Company, dMY and the shareholders party thereto (the “TSA Shareholders”) entered into Transaction Support Agreements (the “TSAs”), pursuant to which, among other things, the TSA Shareholders have agreed to vote their outstanding shares of the Company at any meeting of the Company in favor of the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement, and provided a power of attorney to Apax to take certain actions in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement on behalf of such shareholders.

The foregoing description of the TSAs does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the terms and conditions of the TSAs, a copy of which was executed by Apax as a TSA Shareholder and attached hereto as Exhibit 10.3, and a form of which executed by the remaining TSA Shareholders is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.4.

Subscription Agreements

In connection with the execution of the Business Combination Agreement, NewCo and dMY entered into certain subscription agreements, each dated October 27, 2020 (the “Subscription Agreements”), with certain accredited and institutional investors, pursuant to which such investors have subscribed to purchase an aggregate of 33,000,000 NewCo ordinary shares (together, the “Subscriptions”), for a purchase price of $10.00 per share, for an aggregate purchase price of $330,000,000, to be issued immediately prior to or substantially concurrently with the Closing (the “PIPE Investment”). The obligations of each party to consummate the Subscriptions are conditioned upon, among other things, customary closing conditions and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement. The NewCo ordinary shares to be issued in connection with the Subscription Agreements and the transactions contemplated thereby will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and will be issued in reliance on the exemption from registration requirements thereof provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and/or Regulation D promulgated thereunder as a transaction by an issuer not involving a public offering.

The foregoing description of the Subscription Agreements does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the terms and conditions of the Subscription Agreements, a form of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.5 and is incorporated herein by reference.

 

Important Information About the Business Combination and Where to Find It

In connection with the proposed Business Combination, NewCo intends to file a registration statement on Form F-4 (the “Registration Statement”) with the SEC, which will include a proxy statement/prospectus and certain other related documents, which will be both the proxy statement to be distributed to holders of shares of dMY common stock in connection with dMY’s solicitation of proxies for the vote by dMY’s stockholders with respect to the Business Combination and other matters as may be described in the Registration Statement, as well as the prospectus relating to the offer and sale of the securities of NewCo to be issued in the Business Combination. dMY’s stockholders and other interested persons are advised to read, when available, the preliminary proxy statement/prospectus included in the Registration Statement and the amendments thereto and the definitive proxy statement/prospectus and documents incorporated by reference therein filed in connection with the Business Combination, as these materials will contain important information about the parties to the Business Combination Agreement, dMY and the Business Combination. After the Registration Statement is declared effective, the definitive proxy statement/prospectus will be mailed to dMY’s stockholders as of a record date to be established for voting on the Business Combination and other matters as may be described


in the Registration Statement. Stockholders will also be able to obtain copies of the proxy statement/prospectus and other documents filed with the SEC that will be incorporated by reference in the proxy statement/prospectus, without charge, once available, at the SEC’s web site at www.sec.gov, or by directing a request to: dMY Technology Group, Inc. II, 1180 North Town Center Drive, Suite 100, Las Vegas, Nevada 89144, Attention: Niccolo de Masi.

A list of the names of such directors and executive officers and information regarding their interests in the Business Combination will be included in the Registration Statement when available.

Forward-Looking Statements

Certain statements in this Current Report on Form 8-K may be considered forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements include, without limitation, dMY and Target Companies’ and NewCo’s expectations with respect to future performance and anticipated financial impacts of the proposed Business Combination, the satisfaction of the closing conditions to the proposed Business Combination and the timing of the completion of the Business Combination. For example, projections of future enterprise value, revenue and other metrics are forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may”, “should”, “expect”, “intend”, “will”, “estimate”, “anticipate”, “believe”, “predict”, “potential” or “continue”, or the negatives of these terms or variations of them or similar terminology. Such forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties, and other factors which could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward looking statements.

These forward-looking statements are based upon estimates and assumptions that, while considered reasonable by dMY and its management, NewCo and Target Companies and their management, as the case may be, are inherently uncertain. Factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations include, but are not limited to: (1) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination of negotiations and any subsequent definitive agreements with respect to the Business Combination; (2) the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against dMY, Target Companies, the combined company or others; (3) the inability to complete the Business Combination due to the failure to obtain approval of the shareholders of dMY, to obtain financing to complete the Business Combination or to satisfy other conditions to closing; (4) changes to the proposed structure of the Business Combination that may be required or appropriate as a result of applicable laws or regulations; (5) the ability to meet stock exchange listing standards following the consummation of the Business Combination; (6) the risk that the Business Combination disrupts current plans and operations of dMY or Target Companies’ as a result of the announcement and consummation of the Business Combination; (7) the ability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the Business Combination, which may be affected by, among other things, competition, the ability of the combined company to grow and manage growth profitably, maintain relationships with customers and suppliers and retain its management and key employees; (8) costs related to the Business Combination; (9) changes in applicable laws or regulations; (10) the possibility that dMY, Target Companies or the combined company may be adversely affected by other economic, business, and/or competitive factors; (11) the impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s business and/or the ability of the parties to complete the proposed business combination; (12) Target Companies’ estimates of expenses and profitability and underlying assumptions with respect to stockholder redemptions and purchase price and other adjustments; and (12) other risks and uncertainties set forth in the section entitled “Risk Factors” and “Cautionary Note Regarding


Forward-Looking Statements” in dMY’s final prospectus relating to its initial public offering dated August 17, 2020 and in subsequent filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), including the proxy statement relating to the Business Combination expected to be filed by dMY.

Nothing in this Current Report on Form 8-K should be regarded as a representation by any person that the forward-looking statements set forth herein will be achieved or that any of the contemplated results of such forward-looking statements will be achieved. You should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof. None of dMY, Target Companies’ or Newco undertake any duty to update these forward-looking statements.

No Offer or Solicitation

This Current Report on Form 8-K is for informational purposes only and shall not constitute a solicitation of a proxy, consent or authorization with respect to any securities or in respect of the Business Combination. This Current Report on Form 8-K shall also not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities, nor shall there be any sale of securities in any states or jurisdictions in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction. No offering of securities shall be made except by means of a prospectus meeting the requirements of Section 10 of the Securities Act, or an exemption therefrom.

ARTICLE VIII

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 8.1 Amendment and Waiver. No amendment of any provision of this Agreement shall be valid unless the same shall be in writing and signed by dMY, the Sponsor and NewCo. No waiver of any provision or condition of this Agreement shall be valid unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Party against which such waiver is to be enforced. No waiver by any Party of any default, breach of representation or warranty or breach of covenant hereunder, whether intentional or not, shall be deemed to extend to any other, prior or subsequent default or breach or affect in any way any rights arising by virtue of any other, prior or subsequent such occurrence. Any such amendment or waiver may occur after the approval of the dMY Stockholder Voting Matters at the dMY Stockholder Meeting so long as such amendment or waiver would not require the further approval of the dMY Stockholders under applicable Law without such approval having first been obtained.

Section 8.4 Assignment. This Agreement and all of the provisions hereof shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and assigns; provided that neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder may be assigned or delegated by any Party (including by operation of Law) without the prior written consent of the other Parties. Any purported assignment or delegation not permitted under this Section 8.4 shall be null and void.

Section 8.5 Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable Law, but if any provision of this Agreement or the application of any such provision to any Person or circumstance shall be held to be prohibited by or invalid, illegal or unenforceable under applicable Law in any respect by a court of competent jurisdiction, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, illegality or unenforceability, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement. Furthermore, in lieu of such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision, there shall be added automatically as a part of this Agreement a legal, valid and enforceable provision as similar in terms to such illegal, invalid, or unenforceable provision as may be possible.

Section 8.6 Interpretation. The headings and captions used in this Agreement and the table of contents to this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. Any capitalized terms used in any Disclosure Letter, Schedule or Exhibit attached hereto or delivered at the same time and not otherwise defined therein shall have the meanings set forth in this Agreement. The use of the word “including” herein shall mean “including without limitation.” The words “hereof,” “herein,” and “hereunder” and words of similar import, when used in this Agreement, shall refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement. References herein to a specific Section, Subsection, Clause, Recital, Section of a Disclosure Letter, Schedule or Exhibit shall refer, respectively, to Sections, Subsections, Clauses, Recitals, Sections of a Disclosure Letter, Schedules or Exhibits of this Agreement. Terms defined in the singular shall have a comparable meaning when used in the plural, and vice versa. References herein to any gender shall include each other gender. The word “or” shall not be exclusive unless the context clearly requires the selection of one (1) (but not more than one (1)) of a number of items. References to “written” or “in writing” include in electronic form. References herein to any Person shall include such Person’s heirs, executors, personal representatives, administrators, successors and permitted assigns; provided, however, that nothing contained in this Section 8.6 is intended to authorize any assignment or transfer not otherwise permitted by this Agreement. References herein to a Person in a particular capacity or capacities shall exclude such Person in any other capacity. Any reference to “days” shall mean calendar days unless Business Days are specified; provided that if any action is required to be done or taken on a day that is not a Business Day, then such action shall be required to be done or taken not on such day but on the first succeeding Business Day thereafter. References herein to any Contract (including this Agreement) mean such Contract as amended, restated, supplemented or modified from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof; provided that with respect to any Contract listed (or required to be listed) on the Disclosure Letters, all material amendments and modifications thereto (but excluding any purchase orders, work orders or statements of work) must also be listed on the appropriate section of the applicable Disclosure Letter. With respect to the determination of any period of time, the word “from” means “from and including” and the words “to” and “until” each means “to but excluding.” References

 

97


herein to any Law shall be deemed also to refer to such Law, as amended, and all rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. If any Party has breached any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement in any respect, the fact that there exists another representation, warranty, covenant or agreement relating to the same subject matter (regardless of the relative levels of specificity) which the Party has not breached shall not detract from or mitigate the fact that the Party is in breach of the first representation, warranty, covenant or agreement. The word “extent” in the phrase “to the extent” (or similar phrases) shall mean the degree to which a subject or other thing extends, and such phrase shall not mean simply “if.” An accounting term not otherwise defined in this Agreement has the meaning assigned to it in accordance with GAAP or U.S. GAAP, as applicable. Except where otherwise provided, all amounts in this Agreement are stated and shall be paid in United States dollars. The Parties and their respective counsel have reviewed and negotiated this Agreement as the joint agreement and understanding of the Parties, and the language used in this Agreement shall be deemed to be the language chosen by the Parties to express their mutual intent, and no rule of strict construction shall be applied against any Person. Any information or materials shall be deemed provided, made available or delivered to dMY if such information or materials have been uploaded to the electronic data room maintained by the Company and its financial advisors on the Intralinks online-platform for purposes of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Data Room”) or otherwise provided to dMY’s representatives (including counsel) via electronic mail, in each case, no later than one day prior to the Effective Date. The content of the Data Room as of the Effective Date will be stored on six (6) identical encrypted USB devices, and the Company will cause three (3) such devices to be sent to dMY within thirty (30) days of the Effective Date.

Section 8.7 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements and the Confidentiality Agreement (together with the Disclosure Letters and Exhibits to this Agreement) contain the entire agreement and understanding among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersede all prior and contemporaneous agreements, understandings and discussions (including that certain non-binding letter of intent among dMY, the Company and Apax Partners LLP, dated as of September 16, 2020), whether written or oral, relating to such subject matter in any way. The Parties have voluntarily agreed to define their rights and Liabilities with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement exclusively pursuant to the express terms and provisions of this Agreement, and the Parties disclaim that they are owed any duties or are entitled to any remedies not set forth in this Agreement. Furthermore, this Agreement embodies the justifiable expectations of sophisticated parties derived from arm’s-length negotiations and no Person has any special relationship with another Person that would justify any expectation beyond that of an ordinary buyer and an ordinary seller in an arm’s-length transaction.

Section 8.8 Counterparts; Electronic Delivery. This Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements and the other agreements, certificates, instruments and documents delivered pursuant to this Agreement may be executed and delivered in one or more counterparts and by fax, email or other electronic transmission, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement. No Party shall raise the use of a fax machine or email to deliver a signature or the fact that any signature or agreement or instrument was transmitted or communicated through the use of a fax machine or email as a defense to the formation or enforceability of a Contract and each Party forever waives any such defense.

Section 8.9 Governing Law; Waiver of Jury Trial; Jurisdiction. The Law of the State of Delaware shall govern (a) all claims or matters related to or arising from this Agreement (including any tort or non-contractual claims) and (b) any questions concerning the construction, interpretation, validity and enforceability of this Agreement, and the performance of the obligations imposed by this Agreement, in each case without giving effect to any choice-of-law or conflict-of-law rules or provisions (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the Law of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY PROCEEDING BROUGHT TO RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE BETWEEN OR AMONG ANY OF THE PARTIES (WHETHER ARISING IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF, CONNECTED WITH, RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT AND/OR THE RELATIONSHIPS ESTABLISHED AMONG THE PARTIES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT. THE PARTIES HERETO FURTHER WARRANT AND REPRESENT THAT EACH HAS REVIEWED THIS WAIVER WITH ITS LEGAL COUNSEL, AND THAT EACH KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVES ITS JURY TRIAL RIGHTS FOLLOWING CONSULTATION WITH LEGAL COUNSEL. Each of the Parties submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of first, the Chancery Court of the State of Delaware or if such court declines jurisdiction, then to the Federal District Court for the District of Delaware, in any Proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, agrees that all claims in respect of the Proceeding shall be heard and determined in any such court and agrees not to bring any Proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement in any other courts. Nothing in this Section 8.9, however, shall affect the right of any Party to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by Law or at equity. Each Party agrees that a final judgment in any Proceeding so brought shall be conclusive and may be enforced by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Law or at equity.

Section 8.10 Trust Account Waiver. Each of the Company and NewCo acknowledges that dMY has established the Trust Account for the benefit of its public dMY Stockholders, which holds proceeds of its initial public offering. For and in consideration of dMY entering into this Agreement and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, each of the Company and NewCo, for itself and its repective Affiliates it has the authority to bind, hereby agrees it does not now and shall not at any time hereafter have any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any assets in the Trust Account (or distributions therefrom to (i) the public dMY Stockholders upon the redemption of their shares and (ii) the underwriters of dMY’s initial public offering in respect of their deferred underwriting commissions held in the Trust Account, in each case as set forth in the Trust Agreement (collectively, the “Trust Distributions”)), and hereby waives any claims it has or may have at any time solely against the Trust Account (including the Trust Distributions) as a result of, or arising out of, any discussions, contracts or agreements (including this Agreement and the Subscription Agreements) between dMY, on the one hand, and NewCo or the Company, on the other hand, and will not seek recourse against the Trust Account (including the Trust Distributions) for any reason whatsoever. Each of the Company and NewCo agrees and acknowledges that such irrevocable waiver is material to this Agreement and specifically relied upon by dMY and the Sponsor to induce dMY and the Sponsor to enter in this Agreement, and each of the Company and NewCo further intends and understands such waiver to be valid, binding and enforceable against the Company and NewCo and each of their respective Affiliates that it has the authority to bind under

 

99


applicable Law. To the extent the Company or NewCo or any of their respective Affiliates that the Company or NewCo has the authority to bind commences any action or proceeding against dMY or any of its Affiliates based upon, in connection with, relating to or arising out of any matter relating to dMY, its Affiliates or its representatives, which Proceeding seeks, in whole or in part, monetary relief against dMY, its Affiliates or its representatives, each of the Company and NewCo hereby acknowledges and agrees that each of the Company’s, NewCo’s and such Affiliates’ sole remedy shall be against assets of dMY or such Affiliate or representatives not in the Trust Account and that such claim shall not permit the Company, NewCo or such Affiliates (or any Person claiming on any of their behalves) to have any claim against the Trust Account (including the Trust Distributions) or any amounts contained in the Trust Account while in the Trust Account.

Section 8.11 Specific Performance. Each Party acknowledges that the rights of each Party to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are unique and recognize and affirm that in the event any of the provisions of this Agreement are not performed in accordance with their specific terms or otherwise are breached, money damages would be inadequate (and therefore the non-breaching Party would have no adequate remedy at Law) and the non-breaching Party would be irreparably damaged. Accordingly, each Party agrees that each other Party shall be entitled to specific performance, an injunction or other equitable relief (without posting of bond or other security or needing to prove irreparable harm) to prevent breaches of the provisions of this Agreement and to enforce specifically this Agreement and the terms and provisions hereof in any Proceeding, in addition to any other remedy to which such Person may be entitled. Each Party agrees that it will not oppose the granting of specific performance and other equitable relief on the basis that the other Parties 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 8.11 shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such injunction.

Section 8.12 No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is for the sole benefit of the Parties and their permitted assigns and nothing herein expressed or implied shall give or be construed to give any Person, other than the Parties and such permitted assigns, any legal or equitable rights hereunder (other than in respect of the Target Indemnified Persons and Non-Party Affiliates, each of whom is an express third-party beneficiary hereunder to the specific provisions in which such Person is referenced and entitled to enforce only such obligations hereunder).

Section 8.13 Disclosure Letters and Exhibits. The Disclosure Letters and Exhibits attached hereto or referred to in this Agreement are (a) each hereby incorporated in and made a part of this Agreement as if set forth in full herein and (b) qualified in their entirety by reference to specific provisions of this Agreement. Any fact or item disclosed in any Section of a Disclosure Letter shall be deemed disclosed in each other Section of the applicable Disclosure Letter to which such fact or item may apply so long as (i) such other Section is referenced by applicable cross-reference or (ii) it is reasonably apparent on the face of such disclosure that such disclosure is applicable to such other Section or portion of the Disclosure Letter. The headings contained in the Disclosure Letters are for convenience of reference only and shall not be deemed to modify or influence the interpretation of the information contained in the Disclosure Letters or this Agreement. The Disclosure Letters are not intended to constitute, and shall not be construed as, an admission or indication that any such fact or item is required to be disclosed. The Disclosure

 

100


Letters shall not be deemed to expand in any way the scope or effect of any representations, warranties or covenants described in this Agreement. Any fact or item, including the specification of any dollar amount, disclosed in the Disclosure Letters shall not by reason only of such inclusion be deemed to be material, to establish any standard of materiality or to define further the meaning of such terms for purposes of this Agreement, and matters reflected in the Disclosure Letters are not necessarily limited to matters required by this Agreement to be reflected herein and may be included solely for information purposes; and no Party shall use the fact of the setting of the amounts or the fact of the inclusion of any item in the Disclosure Letters in any dispute or controversy between the Parties as to whether any obligation, item or matter not described or included in the Disclosure Letters is or is not required to be disclosed (including whether the amount or items are required to be disclosed as material or threatened) or is within or outside of the Ordinary Course of Business. No disclosure in the Disclosure Letters relating to any possible breach or violation of any Contract, Law or Order shall be construed as an admission or indication that any such breach or violation exists or has actually occurred. Moreover, in disclosing the information in the Disclosure Letters, the Company does not waive any attorney-client privilege associated with such information or any protection afforded by the work-product doctrine with respect to any of the matters disclosed or discussed therein. The information contained in the Disclosure Letters shall be kept strictly confidential by the Parties and no third party may rely on any information disclosed or set forth therein.

Section 8.14 No Recourse. Notwithstanding anything that may be expressed or implied in this Agreement (except in the case of the immediately succeeding sentence) or any document, agreement, or instrument delivered contemporaneously herewith, and notwithstanding the fact that any Party may be a corporation, partnership or limited liability company, each Party hereto, by its acceptance of the benefits of this Agreement, covenants, agrees and acknowledges that no Persons other than the Parties shall have any obligation hereunder and that it has no rights of recovery hereunder against, and no recourse hereunder or under any documents, agreements, or instruments delivered contemporaneously herewith or in respect of any oral representations made or alleged to be made in connection herewith or therewith shall be had against, any former, current or future director, officer, agent, Affiliate, manager, assignee, incorporator, controlling Person, fiduciary, representative or employee of any Party (or any of their successors or permitted assignees), against any former, current, or future general or limited partner, manager, stockholder or member of any Party (or any of their successors or permitted assignees) or any Affiliate thereof or against any former, current or future director, officer, agent, employee, Affiliate, manager, assignee, incorporator, controlling Person, fiduciary, representative, general or limited partner, stockholder, manager or member of any of the foregoing, but in each case not including the Parties (each, but excluding for the avoidance of doubt, the Parties, a “Non-Party Affiliate”), whether by or through attempted piercing of the corporate veil, by or through a claim (whether in tort, Contract or otherwise) by or on behalf of such Party against the Non-Party Affiliates, by the enforcement of any assessment or by any Proceeding, or by virtue of any statute, regulation or other applicable Law, or otherwise; it being agreed and acknowledged that no personal Liability whatsoever shall attach to, be imposed on, or otherwise be incurred by any Non-Party Affiliate, as such, for any obligations of the applicable Party under this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, under any documents or instruments delivered contemporaneously herewith, in respect of any oral representations made or alleged to be made in connection herewith or therewith, or for any claim (whether in tort, Contract or otherwise) based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Notwithstanding the forgoing, a Non-Party Affiliate may have

 

101


obligations under any documents, agreements, or instruments delivered contemporaneously herewith or otherwise required by this Agreement if such Non-Party Affiliate is party to such document, agreement or instrument. Except to the extent otherwise set forth in, and subject in all cases to the terms and conditions of and limitations herein, this Agreement may only be enforced against, and any claim or cause of action of any kind based upon, arising out of, or related to this Agreement, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement, may only be brought against the entities that are named as Parties hereto and then only with respect to the specific obligations set forth herein with respect to such Party. Each Non-Party Affiliate is intended as a third-party beneficiary of this Section 8.14.

Section 8.15 Legal Representation.

From and after the Closing, none of dMY, the Sponsor or any Person purporting to act on behalf of or through dMY, the Sponsor or any of the Waiving Parties, will seek to obtain the same by any process. From and after the Closing, each of dMY and the Sponsor, on behalf of itself and the Waiving Parties,

irrevocably waives and will not assert any attorney-client privilege with respect to any communication among K&E, any Target Company and/or any director, manager, officer, owner, employee or representative of any of the foregoing occurring prior to the Closing in connection with any NewCo Post-Closing Representation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that a dispute arises between dMY or the Sponsor, on the one hand, and a third party other than a Target Company, on the other hand, dMY and the Sponsor may assert the attorney-client privilege to prevent disclosure of confidential communications to such third party; provided, however, that neither dMY nor the Sponsor may waive such privilege without the prior written consent of a Target Company.

(b) dMY.

(i) Each Waiving Party hereby agrees that White & Case LLP (or any successor thereto) (“W&C”) may represent dMY or Sponsor or any direct or indirect director, manager, officer, owner, employee or Affiliate of dMY or Sponsor (including the Target Companies and Sponsor), in connection with any dispute, claim, Proceeding or Liability arising out of or relating to this Agreement, any Ancillary Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (any such representation, the “dMY Post-Closing Representation”) notwithstanding its representation (or any continued representation) of dMY or Sponsor in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and the Company, on behalf of themselves and the Waiving Parties, hereby consent thereto and irrevocably waive (and will not assert) any conflict of interest or any objection arising therefrom or relating thereto, even though the interests of the dMY Post-Closing Representation may be directly adverse to the Waiving Parties.

(ii) Each of dMY and NewCo acknowledges that the foregoing provision applies whether or not W&C provides legal services to dMY or Sponsor after the Closing Date. Each of dMY and NewCo, for itself and the Waiving Parties, hereby irrevocably acknowledges and agrees that all communications among W&C, dMY, the Sponsor and/or any director, manager, officer, owner, employee or representative of any of the foregoing made in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and performance under, or any dispute, claim, Proceeding or Liability arising out of or relating to, this Agreement, any Ancillary Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any matter relating to any of the foregoing, are privileged communications and the attorney-client privilege and the expectation of client confidence belongs solely to the Sponsor and is exclusively controlled by the Sponsor and shall not pass to or be claimed by dMY or any of the Target Companies. From and after the Closing, none of dMY, NewCo nor any Person purporting to act on behalf of or through dMY, NewCo or any of the Waiving Parties, will seek to obtain the same by any process. From and after the Closing, each of dMY and NewCo, on behalf of itself and the Waiving Parties, irrevocably waives and will not assert any attorney-client privilege with respect to any communication among W&C, dMY, the Sponsor and/or any director, manager, officer, owner, employee or representative of any of the foregoing occurring prior to the Closing in connection with any dMY Post-

 

103


Closing Representation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that a dispute arises between dMY or NewCo, on the one hand, and a third party other than the Sponsor, on the other hand, dMY or NewCo may assert the attorney-client privilege to prevent disclosure of confidential communications to such third party; provided, however, that none of dMY or NewCo may waive such privilege without the prior written consent of the Sponsor.

The steps set out in this Exhibit A shall be implemented pursuant to, and in accordance with, Sections 2.1 and 2.2 of the Agreement.

Attached to this Exhibit A as Schedule 1 is a pro forma spreadsheet (the “Illustrative Spreadsheet”) showing the illustrative calculations for: (i) the amount allocated to the Loan Note Repayment Amount (in accordance with Section 2.2(b) of the Agreement); (ii) the amount allocated to the Excess Debt Obligations (in accordance with Section 2.2(b) of the Agreement); (iii) the amount allocated to the Total Redemption Amount (in accordance with Section 2.2(b) of the Agreement); (iv) the amount of the Aggregate Stock Consideration; (v) the amount allocated to the Catch-Up Payment; (vi) the amount allocated to repurchase NewCo Common Shares (in accordance with Section 2.2(b)(vi)(y)(B) and 2.2(b)(vii)(B) of the Agreement); and (vii) the number of NewCo Common Shares and Restricted Shares to be issued to and held by each Pre-Closing Holder after giving effect to the steps set out in this Exhibit A and the transactions described in Sections 2.1 and 2.2 of the Agreement.

 

Step

1: At least two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date (or later, if dMY’s certificate pursuant to Section 2.3(a) of the Agreement is not received at least three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing Date), NewCo and the Company shall jointly prepare and deliver to dMY: (i) the certificate described in, and prepared in accordance with, Section 2.2(e) of the Agreement (the “Company Certificate”); and (ii) an updated Illustrative Spreadsheet as of the Closing Date (and references in this Exhibit B, insofar as they relate to step 2 below, shall be deemed to be references to such updated Illustrative Spreadsheet).

Re:

Forfeiture of Founder Holders’ dMY Class A Common Stock

Ladies and Gentlemen:

Reference is made to that certain Business Combination Agreement, dated as of October 27, 2020, by and among dMY Technology Group, Inc. II, a Delaware corporation (“dMY”), Maven Topco Limited, a company incorporated under the laws of Guernsey (the “Company”), Maven Midco Limited, a private limited company incorporated under the laws of England and Wales (“MidCo”), Galileo NewCo Limited, a company incorporated under the laws of Guernsey (“NewCo”), Genius Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of NewCo (“Merger Sub”) and dMY Sponsor II, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Sponsor”) (as may be further amended, restated, amended and restated, modified, or supplemented from to time, the “Combination Agreement”). Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Combination Agreement.

In order to induce NewCo and dMY to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Combination Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Sponsor, Darla Anderson (“Anderson”), Francesca Luthi (“Luthi”), Charles E. Wert (“Wert” and together with the Sponsor, Anderson and Luthi, the “Founder Holders”), dMY and NewCo hereby agree to enter into this letter agreement (this “Letter Agreement”), and hereby agree as follows:

1. Forfeiture by Founder Holders. In connection with and effective as of immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time, up to one million thirty-five thousand (1,035,000) shares of dMY Class A Common Stock (issuable upon the conversion of Founder Shares held by the Founder Holders in accordance with the Founder Holders Consent Letter) held by, or beneficially owned by, the Founder Holders (collectively, the “Founder Holders Forfeiture Shares” and each Founder Holder’s portion of the Founder Holders Forfeiture Shares (determined on a pro rata basis), the “Applicable Founder Holder’s Forfeiture Shares”), shall be automatically forfeited by the Founder Holders to dMY for no consideration and automatically cancelled in accordance with Section 2. Any Founder Holders Forfeiture Shares forfeited pursuant to this Section 1 shall be cancelled for no consideration and any certificates representing such Founder Holders Forfeiture Shares so forfeited shall be cancelled; provided, that to the extent any such certificate represents shares in addition to a Founder Holders Forfeiture Share, which shares are not forfeited pursuant to the terms hereof, NewCo shall reissue such certificate with respect to the shares not so forfeited.


2. Calculation of Forfeited Founder Holders Forfeiture Shares3. . The number of Founder Holders Forfeiture Shares to be forfeited by the Founder Holders in accordance with Section 1 shall be calculated as follows:

(a) if the Minimum Cash is less than or equal to three hundred fifteen million dollars ($315,000,000), then one hundred percent (100%) of the Founder Holders Forfeiture Shares shall be automatically forfeited by the Founder Holders (on a pro rata basis in accordance with Section 1) to dMY for no consideration and canceled;

(b) if the Minimum Cash is greater than three hundred fifteen million dollars ($315,000,000), but less than four hundred fifteen million dollars ($415,000,000), then that number of Founder Holders Forfeiture Shares equal to (i) the Minimum Cash Forfeiture Percentage (as defined below) multiplied by (ii) the total number of Founder Holders Forfeiture Shares shall be automatically forfeited by the Founder Holders (on a pro rata basis in accordance with Section 1) to dMY for no consideration and canceled; and

(c) if the Minimum Cash is equal to or greater than four hundred fifteen million dollars ($415,000,000), then none of the Founder Holders Forfeiture Shares shall be forfeited by the Founder Holders.

3. Definition of “Minimum Cash Forfeiture Percentage”(a) . For purposes of this Letter Agreement, “Minimum Cash Forfeiture Percentage” means quotient of, represented as a percentage, (i) the difference of (x) four hundred fifteen million dollars ($415,000,000) minus (y) the Minimum Cash divided by (ii) one hundred million dollars ($100,000,000); provided that in no event may the Minimum Cash Forfeiture Percentage be less than zero percent (0%) or exceed one hundred percent (100%).

4. Transfer. Prior to the final determination of the number of Founder Holders Forfeiture Shares to be forfeited in accordance with this Agreement (if any), the Founder Holders shall not, directly or indirectly, transfer or otherwise dispose of any shares of dMY Class B Common Stock, other than as may be expressly permitted by the dMY A&R Certificate of Incorporation.

5. Founder Holder Representations. Each Founder Holder (as to itself and not any other Founder Holder), severally and not jointly, hereby represents and warrants to dMY and NewCo, as of the date hereof, that such Founder Holder owns, and holds of record, all of such Founder Holder’s shares of dMY Class B Common Stock to be converted into shares of dMY Class A Common Stock in accordance with the dMY A&R Certificate of Incorporation and to represent such Founder Holder’s Applicable Founder Holder’s Forfeiture Shares, free and clear of all Liens, other than Securities Liens and such Liens and other obligations imposed by applicable securities Laws, the Combination Agreement, dMY A&R Certificate of Incorporation and dMY Bylaws.

6. Assignment. No party hereto may assign either this Letter Agreement or any of its rights, interests, or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each of the other parties hereto. Any purported assignment in violation of this Section 6 shall be void and ineffectual and shall not operate to transfer or assign any interest or title to the purported assignee. This Letter Agreement shall be binding on dMY and the Founder Holders and their respective successors and assigns.

 

2


7. Notices. Any notice, consent, or request to be given in connection with any of the terms or provisions of this Letter Agreement shall be given to dMY and NewCo in accordance with Section 8.3 of the Combination Agreement, and to the Founder Holders in accordance with the notice information set forth on such Founder Holder’s signature page hereto; in each case, unless a party hereto otherwise specifies a different address in a writing delivered to the other parties hereto.

8. Amendments. No amendment of any provision of this Letter Agreement shall be valid unless the same shall be in writing and signed by all of the parties hereto. No waiver of any provision or condition of this Letter Agreement shall be valid unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the party hereto against which such waiver is to be enforced. No waiver by any party hereto of any default, breach of representation or warranty or breach of covenant hereunder, whether intentional or not, shall be deemed to extend to any other, prior or subsequent default or breach or affect in any way any rights arising by virtue of any other, prior or subsequent such occurrence.

9. Miscellaneous. Section 8.2 (Waiver of Remedies; Survival of Representations and Warranties), Section 8.7 (Entire Agreement), Section 8.8 (Counterparts; Electronic Delivery), and Section 8.9 (Governing Law; Waiver of Jury Trial; Jurisdiction) of the Combination Agreement are hereby incorporated into this Letter Agreement, mutatis mutandis, as though set out in their entirety in this Section 9.

Exhibit C

Founder Holders Consent Letter

FOUNDER HOLDERS CONSENT LETTER

This FOUNDER HOLDERS CONSENT LETTER (this “Consent”) is entered into as of October 27, 2020, between Galileo NewCo Limited, a company incorporated under the laws of Guernsey (“NewCo”), Maven Topco Limited, a company incorporated under the laws of Guernsey (the “Company”), dMY Technology Group, Inc. II, a Delaware corporation (“dMY”), dMY Sponsor II, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Sponsor”) and each holder (each, a “Founder Holder” and, collectively, the “Founder Holders”) of the issued and outstanding shares of Class B common stock of dMY, par value $0.0001 per share (the “dMY Class B Common Stock”). Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Business Combination Agreement (as defined below).

WHEREAS, the Founder Holders own an aggregate of 6,900,000 shares of dMY Class B Common Stock;

WHEREAS, on August 13, 2020, Sponsor, dMY and each of the Founder Holders entered into a letter agreement in connection with the underwriting agreement entered into by dMY and attached as Exhibit A hereto (the “Original Sponsor Letter”);

WHEREAS, on October 27, 2020, dMY entered into a Business Combination Agreement (the “Business Combination Agreement”) with the Company, Maven Midco Limited, a private limited company incorporated under the laws of England and Wales, NewCo, Genius Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of NewCo (“Merger Sub”) and the Sponsor. Pursuant to the transactions contemplated by the terms of the Business Combination Agreement, and subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions set forth therein, among other things, Merger Sub will merge with and into dMY, with dMY surviving the merger and continuing as a wholly owned subsidiary of NewCo (the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement and the related ancillary agreements, the “Business Combination”);

WHEREAS, Article 4.3(b) of dMY’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Charter”) provides that, automatically on the closing of the Business Combination, each share of dMY Class B Common Stock will automatically convert on a one-for-one basis into shares of dMY Class A Common Stock; provided that, if, in connection with the consummation of the Business Combination, additional shares of dMY Class A Common Stock are issued or deemed issued in excess of the amounts sold in dMY’s initial public offering, the ratio for which the shares of dMY Class B Common Stock shall convert into shares of dMY Class A Common Stock will be adjusted so that the number of shares of dMY Class A Common Stock issuable upon conversion of all shares of dMY Class B Common Stock will equal, in the aggregate, 25% of the sum of (a) the total number of all shares of dMY Class A Common Stock issued in dMY’s initial public offering (including any shares of dMY Class A Common Stock issued pursuant to the underwriters’ over-allotment option) plus (b) the sum of (i) all shares of dMY Class A Common Stock issued or deemed issued or issuable upon conversion or exercise of any equity-linked


securities or rights issued or deemed issued in connection with or in relation to the consummation of the Business Combination (including any shares of dMY Class A Common Stock issued pursuant to a forward purchase agreement), excluding any shares of dMY Class A Common Stock or equity-linked securities or rights issued, or to be issued, to any seller in the Business Combination, any private placement warrants issued to the Sponsor, or an affiliate of the Sponsor or dMY’s officers and directors upon the conversion of working capital loans made to dMY and any warrants issued pursuant to a forward purchase agreement, minus (ii) the number of shares of dMY Class A Common Stock redeemed in connection with a Business Combination, provided that such conversion of shares of dMY Class B Common Stock shall never be less than on a one-for-one basis (the “Conversion Rights Provision”);

WHEREAS, under the Charter, the Business Combination and the transactions contemplated thereby (including the PIPE Investment) will trigger the Conversion Rights Provision; and

WHEREAS, in connection with the Business Combination, the parties hereto desire that each Founder Holder irrevocably waives his, her or its rights under Article 4.3(b) of the Charter with respect to any additional shares of dMY Class A Common Stock otherwise issuable upon conversion pursuant to the Conversion Rights Provision (the “Excess Shares”).

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual agreements herein contained, and to induce NewCo and the Company to enter into the Business Combination Agreement, the parties hereto agree as follows:

Section 1. Waiver and Conversion.

(a) Each Founder Holder hereby irrevocably and unconditionally relinquishes and waives (the “Waiver”) any and all rights, title and interest such Founder Holder has or will have under Article 4.3(b) of the Charter to receive Excess Shares upon conversion of the shares of dMY Class B Common Stock in connection with the closing of the Business Combination.

(b) Each Founder Holder hereby acknowledges and agrees that, to the extent such Founder Holder receives any Excess Shares as a result of any conversion of shares of dMY Class B Common Stock, such Founder Holder shall surrender such shares, including any certificates thereof, to NewCo for cancellation, and no consideration shall be payable to such Founder Holder in connection therewith.

(c) Each Founder Holder hereby acknowledges and agrees that, immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time, and subject to Section 1(a) above, each share of dMY Class B Common Stock that is issued and outstanding as of such time shall automatically convert in accordance with the Conversion Rights Provision into one share of dMY Class A Common Stock, and all the Founder Holders jointly and severally agree that as a result of such conversion, all outstanding shares of dMY Class B Common Stock shall collectively convert into 6,900,000 shares of dMY Class A Common Stock (subject to the provisions set forth in the Sponsor Forfeiture Agreement).


Section 2. Third Party Beneficiary. Pursuant to Section 13 of the Original Sponsor Letter, each of the parties to the Original Sponsor Letter agree that notwithstanding Section 15 of the Original Sponsor Letter, each of NewCo and the Company shall be express third party beneficiaries of such Original Sponsor Letter and may directly enforce (including by an action for specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable relief) each of the provisions set forth therein as though directly party thereto; provided that, to the extent the Business Combination Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms, NewCo and the Company shall no longer be a third party beneficiary of the Original Sponsor Letter for any purposes and shall have no right to directly enforce (including by an action for specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable relief) any of the provisions set forth in the Original Sponsor Letter in any respects.

Section 3. Successors and Assigns. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the terms of this Consent are binding on and shall inure to the benefit of such party’s beneficiaries, heirs, legatees and other statutorily designated representatives. Each Founder Holder also understands that this Consent, once executed, is irrevocable and binding, and if a Founder Holder transfers, sells or otherwise assigns any shares of dMY Class B Common Stock held by it as of the date of this Agreement, the transferee of such shares of dMY Class B Common Stock shall be bound by the terms of this Consent as if such transferee were a party hereto. Any Founder Holder that desires to transfer, sell or otherwise assign any shares of dMY Class B Common Stock shall, in addition to any other existing obligations or restrictions applicable to such proposed transfer, sale or assignment that may exist, provide the proposed transferee with a copy of this Consent and obtain from such proposed transferee a written acknowledgment that such proposed transferee acknowledges and agrees to the Waiver and the other matters set forth in this Consent.

Section 4. Authorization; Enforcement. Each of the parties hereto represents that (a) it has the requisite corporate power or legal capacity, as applicable, and authority to enter into, deliver and perform his, her or its obligations under this Consent, (b) this Consent has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by such party and (c) this Consent is enforceable against it in accordance with its terms.

Section 5. Effect of this Consent on Charter. The Charter and the Original Sponsor Letter, as affected hereby, shall remain in full force and effect. The Waiver contained in this Consent shall not constitute a waiver of any other provision of the Charter, except as expressly provided herein with respect to Article 4.3(b). This Consent constitutes the entire agreement and understanding of the parties hereto in respect of the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior understandings, agreements, or representations by or among the parties hereto, written or oral, to the extent they relate in any way to the subject matter hereof or the transactions contemplated hereby. This Consent may not be changed, amended, modified or waived (other than to correct a typographical error) as to any particular provision, except by a written instrument executed by all parties hereto.

Section 6. Counterparts. This Consent may be executed in two (2) or more counterparts (including by electronic means), all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when signed by each of the parties hereto and delivered to the other parties hereto, it being understood that all parties hereto need not sign the same counterpart.


Section 7. Governing Law; Venue; Waiver of Jury Trial.

For so long as Apax and its Permitted Transferees, either individually or as a group (as such term is construed in accordance with the Exchange Act), have the right to include at least two (2) Apax Directors in the slate of nominees recommended by the Board for election as directors at each applicable annual or extraordinary meeting of shareholders at which directors are to be elected, PubCo shall not increase the size of the Board beyond nine (9) directors without the prior written consent of Apax.

(c) Decrease in Directors. Upon any decrease in the number of directors that Apax is entitled to designate for nomination to the Board pursuant to Section 2.1(b), Apax shall take all Necessary Action to cause the appropriate number of Apax Directors to offer to tender their resignation at least sixty (60) days prior to the expected date of PubCo’s next annual meeting of shareholders; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, such resignation may be made effective as of the last day of the term of such director. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee may, in its sole discretion, recommend for nomination an Apax Director that has tendered his or her resignation pursuant to this Section 2.1(c).

 

12


(d) Removal; Vacancies. Apax or the Sponsor, as applicable, shall have the exclusive right to (i) remove their respective nominees from the Board, and PubCo shall take all Necessary Action to cause the removal of any such nominee at the request of the applicable Party and (ii) designate directors for election to the Board to fill vacancies created by reason of death, removal or resignation of its nominees to the Board, and PubCo shall take all Necessary Action to cause any such vacancies created pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above to be filled by replacement directors designated by the applicable Party as promptly as practicable after such designation (and in any event prior to the next meeting or action of the Board or applicable committee). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.1(d), no Party shall have the right to designate a replacement director, and PubCo shall not be required to take any action to cause any vacancy to be filled by any such designee, to the extent that election or appointment of such designee to the Board would result in a number of directors nominated or designated by such Party in excess of the number of directors that such Party is then entitled to nominate for membership on the Board pursuant to this Investor Rights Agreement.

(e) Committees. In accordance with PubCo’s Organizational Documents, (i) the Board shall establish and maintain committees of the Board for (x) Audit, (y) Compensation and (z) Nominating and Corporate Governance, and (ii) the Board may from time to time by resolution establish and maintain other committees of the Board. Subject to applicable Laws and stock exchange rules, and subject to requisite independence requirements applicable to such committee (determined after giving effect to Section 2.1(h)), Apax shall have the right, and PubCo shall take all Necessary Action and shall procure that the Board shall take all Necessary Action, to have a number of the members of each such committee consist of a proportional number of members of each such committee (rounded up) as relates to the proportion of the Board designated by Apax. For as long as such individual serves on the Board and is eligible to serve on such committee, (x) Niccolo de Masi shall be entitled to serve on the Compensation Committee and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and (y) Harry You shall be entitled to serve on the Audit Committee as Chairman. The Compensation Committee shall be required to consult with the Chief Executive Officer from time to time on matters relating to remuneration of employees, other than the remuneration of the Chief Executive Officer, including without limitation discussing with and considering in good faith the recommendations of the Chief Executive Officer prior to commencement of any consideration of any such remuneration, and keeping the Chief Executive Officer reasonably apprised of the status of the Compensation Committee’s deliberations, it being agreed that the Compensation Committee shall consider the Chief Executive Officer’s recommendations in good faith.

(f) Independent Directors. PubCo has determined that the initial slate of directors referenced in Section 2.1(a) includes the requisite number of individuals meeting the independence requirements of the New York Stock Exchange. From and after such initial slate is constituted, PubCo, Sellers and the Sponsor shall take all Necessary Action to ensure that the Board consists of the requisite number of directors meeting the independence requirements of the New York Stock Exchange or any other securities exchange on which the Equity Securities of PubCo are then listed, in each case giving effect, when applicable, to Section 2.1(h) (and for so long as PubCo is Controlled Company Eligible and the Sellers are entitled to nominate their full slate of directors pursuant to Section 2.1(a)(i), the Sellers shall include among its nominees such number of directors meeting such independence requirements that, when taken together with other directors (including the Sponsor Directors) meeting such independence requirements, PubCo has the requisite number of directors meeting such independence requirements). For the avoidance of doubt, it is understood and agreed that, if at any time the number of directors entitled to be

 

13


designated by Sellers and the Sponsor pursuant to this Section 2.1 is less than the entire membership of the Board, subject to the rights of any other Person to nominate or designate one or more directors (including, without limitation, the right of the Sellers and the Sponsor to designate members for nominations to the Board in accordance with Section 2.1(a)), the remaining directors shall be nominated by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and approved by the Board.

(g) Controlled Company Exception. At all times in which PubCo is Controlled Company Eligible, except to the extent otherwise agreed in writing by Apax, PubCo shall take all Necessary Action to avail itself of all “controlled company” exemptions to the rules of the New York Stock Exchange or any other exchange on which the Equity Securities of PubCo are then listed and shall comply with all requirements under Law (including Item 407(a) of Regulation S-K) and all disclosure requirements to take such actions. Among other things, except to the extent otherwise agreed in writing by Apax, for so long as PubCo is Controlled Company Eligible, PubCo shall take all Necessary Action to exempt itself from each of (i) any requirement that a majority of the Board consist of independent directors; (ii) any requirement that the Nominating and Governance Committee be composed entirely of independent directors or have a written charter addressing the committee’s purpose and responsibilities; (iii) any requirement that the Compensation Committee be composed entirely of independent directors with a written charter addressing the committee’s purpose and responsibilities; (iv) the requirement for an annual performance evaluation of the Nominating and Governance Committee and Compensation Committee; and (v) each other requirement that a “controlled company” is eligible to be exempted from under the rules of the New York Stock Exchange or any other exchange on which the Equity Securities of PubCo are then listed.

(h) Reimbursement of Expenses. PubCo shall reimburse the directors and Apax Board Observer (as applicable) for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with their attendance at meetings of the Board and any committees thereof, including travel, lodging and meal expenses.

(i) Indemnification. For so long as any Seller Director or Sponsor Director serves as a director of PubCo, (i) PubCo shall provide such Seller Director or Sponsor Director with the same expense reimbursement, benefits, indemnity, exculpation and other arrangements provided to the other directors of PubCo and (ii) PubCo shall not amend, alter or repeal any right to indemnification or exculpation covering or benefiting any Seller Director or Sponsor Director nominated pursuant to this Investor Rights Agreement as and to the extent consistent with applicable Law, [Article ] of the Articles and any indemnification agreements with directors (whether such right is contained in the Organizational Documents or another document) (except to the extent such amendment or alteration permits PubCo to provide broader indemnification or exculpation rights on a retroactive basis than permitted prior thereto).

(j) D&O Insurance. PubCo shall (i) purchase directors’ and officers’ liability insurance in an amount determined by the Board to be reasonable and customary and (ii) for so long as any Seller Director or Sponsor Director serves as a director, maintain such directors’ and officers’ liability insurance coverage with respect to such director; provided, that upon removal or resignation of such Seller Director or Sponsor Director for any reason, PubCo shall take all actions reasonably necessary to extend such directors’ and officers’ liability insurance coverage with respect to such Seller Director or Sponsor Director for a period of not less than six (6) years from any such event in respect of any act or omission of such Seller Director or Sponsor Director occurring at or prior to such event.

 

14


(k) Apax Board Observer. For so long as Apax and its Permitted Transferees, either individually or as a group (as such term is construed in accordance with the Exchange Act), Beneficially Own Common Shares representing at least 10%, but less than 20%, of the Common Shares held by Apax immediately after the Closing (the “Apax Board Observer Threshold”), Apax shall have the right to designate one board observer (the “Apax Board Observer”); provided further that Apax’s right to designate one board observer for appointment shall automatically be terminated without any further action required in the event that the number of Common Shares Beneficially Owned by Apax and its Permitted Transferees falls below the Apax Board Observer Threshold. The Apax Board Observer shall have the right to (i) attend all meetings of the Board in a non-voting, observer capacity and (ii) receive copies of all notices, minutes, consents and other materials that PubCo provides to the Board in the same manner as such materials are provided to the Board; provided, that, (x) Apax’s right to appoint the Apax Board Observer is non-transferrable, (y) the Apax Board Observer shall not be entitled to vote on any matter submitted to the Board nor to offer any motions or resolutions to the Board, and the Apax Board Observer’s presence or absence at any meeting of the Board will not be relevant for purposes of determining whether there is a quorum, and (z) PubCo may withhold information or materials from the Apax Board Observer and exclude the Apax Board Observer from any executive sessions and/or all or any portion of any meeting or discussion of the Board, in each case of this clause (z), if the Board determines in good faith that access to such information and/or materials or attendance at such meeting or portion thereof would (A) adversely affect the attorney-client privilege between PubCo and its counsel, (B) adversely affect PubCo or its Affiliates under governmental regulations or other applicable laws, (C) be in contravention of any agreement or arrangement with any governmental authority, or (D) result in a conflict of interest. The Apax Board Observer shall be subject to the same obligations as the members of the Board with respect to confidentiality and conflicts of interest (and shall provide, prior to attending any meetings or receiving any information or materials, such reasonable assurances to such effect as may be requested by PubCo) and shall be entitled to expense reimbursement in accordance with Section 2.1(i).

(l) Tax Residency. For so long as Apax and its Permitted Transferees collectively own at least 10% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares of PubCo, absent the prior consent of Apax, PubCo shall use reasonable best efforts to maintain its status as a corporate tax resident of the United Kingdom under applicable law, including the maintenance of “central management and control” in the United Kingdom.

Section 2.2 Sharing of Information. To the extent permitted by antitrust, competition or any other applicable Law, each of PubCo, the Sellers and the Sponsor agrees and acknowledges that the directors designated by Apax and the Sponsor and the Apax Board Observer may share confidential, non-public information about PubCo and its Subsidiaries (“Confidential Information”) with Apax and the Sponsor, as applicable. Each of Apax and the Sponsor recognizes that it, or its Affiliates and Representatives, has acquired or will acquire Confidential Information the use or disclosure of which could cause PubCo substantial loss and damages that could not be readily calculated and for which no remedy at Law would be adequate. Accordingly, each of Apax

 

15


and the Sponsor covenants and agrees with PubCo that it will not (and will cause its respective controlled Affiliates and Representatives not to) at any time, except with the prior written consent of PubCo, directly or indirectly, disclose any Confidential Information known to it to any third party, unless (a) such information becomes known to the public through no fault of such Party, (b) disclosure is required by applicable Law or court of competent jurisdiction or requested by a Governmental Entity; provided that such Party promptly notifies PubCo of such requirement or request and takes commercially reasonable steps, at the sole cost and expense of PubCo, to minimize the extent of any such required disclosure, (c) such information was available or becomes available to such Party before, on or after the Effective Date, without restriction, from a source (other than PubCo) without any breach of duty to PubCo or (d) such information was independently developed by such Party or its Representatives without the use of the Confidential Information. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Investor Rights Agreement shall prohibit Apax and the Sponsor from disclosing Confidential Information to any Affiliate, Representative, limited partner, member or shareholder of such Party; provided that such Person shall be bound by an obligation of confidentiality with respect to such Confidential Information and such Party shall be responsible for any breach of this Section 2.2 by any such Person. No Confidential Information shall be deemed to be provided to any Person, including any Affiliate of Apax or the Sponsor, unless such Confidential Information is actually provided to such Person.

ARTICLE III

REGISTRATION RIGHTS

Section 3.1 Shelf Registration.

(a) Filing. PubCo shall file, within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, a Registration Statement for a Shelf Registration on Forms F-3 or S-3, as applicable, or any similar short-form registration (the “Form F-3 Shelf”), or if PubCo is ineligible to use a Form F-3 Shelf, a Registration Statement for a Shelf Registration on Form F-1 or S-1, as applicable, or any similar long-form registration (the “Form F-1 Shelf,” and together with the Form F-3 Shelf (and any Subsequent Shelf Registration), the “Shelf”), in each case, covering the resale of all Registrable Securities (determined as of two (2) Business Days prior to such filing) on a delayed or continuous basis. PubCo shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Shelf to become effective as soon as practicable after such filing, but in no event later than sixty (60) days after the initial filing thereof, which shall be extended to ninety (90) days after the initial filing thereof if the Registration Statement is reviewed by, and comments thereto are provided from, the SEC. The 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 Special Holder. PubCo shall maintain the Shelf in accordance with the terms of this Investor Rights Agreement, and shall prepare and file with the SEC such amendments, including post-effective amendments, and supplements as may be necessary to keep such 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 PubCo files a Form F-1 Shelf, PubCo 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 PubCo is eligible to use Form F-3 or S-3, as applicable, or any similar short-form registration.

 

16


(b) Subsequent Shelf Registration. If any Shelf ceases to be effective under the Securities Act for any reason at any time while there are any Registrable Securities outstanding, PubCo shall use its reasonable best 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 reasonable best 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 outstanding Registrable Securities from time to time, and pursuant to any method or combination of methods legally available to, and requested by, any Special Holder. If a Subsequent Shelf Registration is filed, PubCo shall use its reasonable best 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 if PubCo is a Well-Known Seasoned Issuer at the time of filing) 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 outstanding. Any such Subsequent Shelf Registration shall be on Form F-3 or Form S-3, as applicable, or any similar short-form registration to the extent that PubCo is eligible to use such form. Otherwise, such Subsequent Shelf Registration shall be on another appropriate form. In the event that any Holder holds Registrable Securities that are not registered for resale on a delayed or continuous basis, PubCo, upon request of a Holder, shall promptly use its reasonable best efforts to cause the resale of such Registrable Securities to be covered by either, at PubCo’s option, the Shelf (including by means of a post-effective amendment) or 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 of this Investor Rights Agreement.

(c) Requests for Underwritten Shelf Takedowns. At any time and from time to time after the Shelf has been declared effective by the SEC, the Special Holders may request to sell all or any portion of their Registrable Securities in an underwritten offering that is registered pursuant to the Shelf (each, an “Underwritten Shelf Takedown”); provided that PubCo shall only be obligated to effect an Underwritten Shelf Takedown if such offering (i) shall include securities with a total offering price (including piggyback securities and before deduction of underwriting discounts) reasonably expected to exceed, in the aggregate, $10 million (the “Minimum Takedown Threshold”) or (ii) shall be made with respect to all of the Registrable Securities of the Demanding Holder. All requests for Underwritten Shelf Takedowns shall be made by giving written notice to PubCo, which shall specify the approximate number of Registrable Securities proposed to be sold in the Underwritten Shelf Takedown and the expected price range (net of underwriting discounts and commissions) of such Underwritten Shelf Takedown; provided that each Special Holder agrees that the fact that such a notice has been delivered shall constitute Confidential Information subject to Section 2.2. The Special Holders that requested such Underwritten Shelf Takedown (the “Demanding Holders”) shall have the right to select the Underwriters for such offering (which shall consist of one (1) or more reputable nationally or regionally recognized investment banks), and to agree to the pricing and other terms of such offering; provided that such selection shall be subject to the consent of PubCo, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Notwithstanding anything to the

 

17


contrary contained in this Investor Rights Agreement, in no event shall any Special Holder or any Transferee thereof request an Underwritten Shelf Takedown during the Lock-Up Period applicable to such Person. There shall be no limit to the number of Underwritten Shelf Takedowns that may be requested by any Special Holder, subject to the proviso in the first sentence of this Section 3.1(c). For the avoidance of doubt, Underwritten Shelf Takedowns shall include underwritten block trades; provided that other Special Holders, Significant Co-Investors and Restricted Holders of Registrable Securities shall have to exercise any piggy-back rights, subject in all cases, to Article IV (pro rata based on the respective then-ownership of Registrable Securities of each such Holder) on any such block trade no later than twenty four (24) hours following receipt of any written notice regarding such block trade, which notice shall contain a summary of all material terms of such block trade, to the extent then known.

(d) Shelf Takedown Participation. Promptly upon receipt of a Shelf Takedown Request (but in no event more than three (3) Business Days thereafter (or more than twenty-four (24) hours thereafter in connection with an underwritten “block trade”)) for any Underwritten Shelf Takedown, PubCo shall deliver a notice (a “Shelf Takedown Notice”) to each other Special Holder, Significant Co-Investor and each Restricted Holder with Registrable Securities covered by the applicable Registration Statement (each, a “Potential Takedown Participant”). The Shelf Takedown Notice shall offer each such Potential Takedown Participant the opportunity, subject to the provisions of Article IV, to include in any Underwritten Shelf Takedown such number of Registrable Securities as each such Potential Takedown Participant may request in writing (each a “Requesting Holder”). PubCo shall include in the Underwritten Shelf Takedown all such Registrable Securities with respect to which PubCo has received written requests for inclusion therein within three (3) Business Days (or within twenty-four (24) hours in connection with an underwritten “block trade”) after the date that the Shelf Takedown Notice has been delivered. Any Requesting Holder’s request to participate in an Underwritten Shelf Takedown shall be binding on the Requesting Holder; provided that each such Requesting Holder that elects to participate may condition its participation on the Underwritten Shelf Takedown being completed within ten (10) Business Days of its acceptance at a price per share (after giving effect to any underwriters’ discounts or commissions) to such Requesting Holder of not less than a percentage of the closing price for the shares on their principal trading market on the Business Day immediately prior to such Requesting Holder’s election to participate, as specified in such Requesting Holder’s request to participate in such Underwritten Shelf Takedown (the “Participation Conditions”). Notwithstanding the delivery of any Shelf Takedown Notice, but subject to the Participation Conditions (to the extent applicable), all determinations as to whether to complete any Underwritten Shelf Takedown and as to the timing, manner, price and other terms of any Underwritten Shelf Takedown contemplated by this Section 3.1(d) shall be determined by the Demanding Holders.

(e) Reduction of Underwritten Shelf Takedowns. If the managing Underwriter or Underwriters in an Underwritten Shelf Takedown, in good faith, advise PubCo, the Demanding Holders and the Requesting Holders (if any) in writing that the dollar amount or number of Registrable Securities that the Demanding Holders and the Requesting Holders (if any) desire to sell, taken together with all other Common Shares or other Equity Securities that PubCo desires to sell and all other Common Shares or other Equity Securities, if any, that have been requested to be sold in such Underwritten Offering pursuant to separate written contractual piggyback

 

18


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 PubCo shall include in such Underwritten Offering, as follows: at all times (i) first, the Registrable Securities of the Demanding Holders and the Requesting Holders (if any) (pro rata based on the respective then-ownership of Registrable Securities of each Demanding Holder and Requesting Holder (if any) that has requested to be included in such Underwritten Shelf Takedown) that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities, but at all times subject to Article IV; (ii) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clause (i), the Common Shares or other Equity Securities that PubCo desires to sell, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; and (iii) third, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), the Common Shares or other Equity Securities of other Persons that PubCo is obligated to include in such Underwritten Offering pursuant to separate written contractual arrangements with such Persons and that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities.

(f) Withdrawal. Any of the Demanding Holders 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 PubCo and the Underwriter or Underwriters (if any) of such Demanding Holder’s intention to withdraw from such Underwritten Shelf Takedown, prior to the public announcement of the Underwritten Shelf Takedown by PubCo; provided that a Special Holder not so withdrawing may elect to have PubCo continue an Underwritten Shelf Takedown if the Minimum Takedown Threshold would still be satisfied or if the Underwritten Shelf Takedown would be made with respect to all of the Registrable Securities of such Special Holder. Following the receipt of any Withdrawal Notice, PubCo shall promptly forward such Withdrawal Notice to any other Special Holders that had elected to participate in such Underwritten Shelf Takedown. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Investor Rights Agreement, PubCo shall be responsible for the Registration Expenses incurred in connection with the Underwritten Shelf Takedown prior to delivery of a Withdrawal Notice under this Section 3.1(f).

(g) Long-Form Demands. Upon the expiration of the Lock-Up Period applicable to such Person, and during such times as no Shelf is effective, each Special Holder may demand that PubCo file a Registration Statement on Form F-1 or S-1, as applicable, or any similar long-form registration for the purpose of conducting an Underwritten Offering of any or all of such Special Holder’s Registrable Securities. PubCo shall file such Registration Statement within 30 days of receipt of such demand and use its reasonable best efforts to cause the same to be declared effective as soon as practicable after the initial filing thereof, but in no event later than sixty (60) days after the initial filing thereof, which shall be extended to ninety (90) days after the initial filing thereof if the Registration Statement is reviewed by, and comments thereto are provided from, the SEC. The provisions of Section 3.1(c), Section 3.1(d), Section 3.1(e), and Section 3.1(f) shall apply to this Section 3.1(g) as if a demand under this Section 3.1(g) were an Underwritten Shelf Takedown, provided that in order to withdraw a demand under this Section 3.1(g), such withdrawal must be received by PubCo prior to PubCo having publicly filed a Registration Statement pursuant to this Section 3.1(g).

 

19


Section 3.2 Piggyback Registration.

(a) Piggyback Rights. If PubCo proposes to file a Registration Statement under the Securities Act with respect to an offering of, Equity Securities of PubCo or securities or other obligations exercisable or exchangeable for or convertible into Equity Securities of PubCo, for its own account or for the account of shareholders of PubCo, other than a Registration Statement (or any registered offering with respect thereto) (i) filed in connection with any employee share option or other benefit plan, (ii) for an exchange offer or offering of securities solely to PubCo’s existing shareholders, (iii) for an offering of debt that is convertible into equity securities of PubCo, or (iv) for a dividend reinvestment plan, then PubCo shall give written notice of such proposed offering to each Special Holder, Management, Significant Co-Investor and any other Restricted Holder (collectively, the “Piggyback Holders”) as soon as practicable but not less than four (4) calendar days before the anticipated filing date of such Registration Statement or, in the case of an underwritten offering pursuant to a Shelf Registration, the launch date of 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 and if known, in such offering, and (B) offer to all of the Piggyback Holders the opportunity to include in such registered offering such number of Registrable Securities as such Piggyback Holders may request in writing within three (3) calendar days after receipt of such written notice (such registered offering, a “Piggyback Registration”); provided that each Piggyback Holder agrees that the fact that such a notice has been delivered shall constitute Confidential Information subject to Section 2.2. PubCo shall cause such Registrable Securities to be included in such Piggyback Registration, at all times subject to Article IV, and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the managing Underwriter or Underwriters of a proposed Underwritten Offering to permit the Registrable Securities requested by the Piggyback Holders pursuant to this Section 3.2(a) to be included in a Piggyback Registration on the same terms and conditions as any similar securities of PubCo 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 inclusion of any Piggyback Holder’s Registrable Securities in a Piggyback Registration shall be subject to such Piggyback Holder’s agreement to abide by the terms of Section 3.6 below.

(b) Reduction of Piggyback Registration. If the managing Underwriter or Underwriters in an Underwritten Offering that is to be a Piggyback Registration (other than an Underwritten Shelf Takedown), in good faith, advises PubCo and the Piggyback Holders participating in the Piggyback Registration in writing that the dollar amount or number of Common Shares or other Equity Securities that PubCo desires to sell, taken together with (i) the Common Shares or other Equity Securities, if any, as to which Registration or a registered offering has been demanded pursuant to separate written contractual arrangements with Persons other than the Piggyback Holders hereunder and (ii) the Common Shares or other Equity Securities, if any, as to which registration has been requested pursuant to Section 3.2, exceeds the Maximum Number of Securities, then:

 

20


(i) If the Registration is initiated and undertaken for PubCo’s account, PubCo shall include in any such Registration, subject to the terms of Article IV, (A) first, the Common Shares or other Equity Securities that PubCo desires to sell, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; (B) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clause (A), the Registrable Securities of Piggyback Holders exercising their rights to register their Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 3.2(a) (pro rata based on the respective then-ownership of Registrable Securities of each Special Holder that has requested to be included in such Registration), which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; and (C) third, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (A) and (B), the Common Shares or other Equity Securities, if any, as to which Registration has been requested pursuant to written contractual piggyback registration rights of other shareholders of PubCo, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; or

(ii) If the Registration is pursuant to a request by Persons other than the Piggyback Holders, then PubCo shall include in any such Registration (A) first, the Common Shares or other Equity Securities, if any, of such requesting Persons, other than the Piggyback Holders, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; (B) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clause (A), the Registrable Securities of Piggyback Holders exercising their rights to register their Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 3.2(a) (pro rata based on the respective then-ownership of Registrable Securities of each Piggyback Holder that has requested to be included in such Registration) which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; (C) third, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (A) and (B), the Common Shares or other Equity Securities that PubCo desires to sell, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; and (D) fourth, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (A), (B) and (C), the Common Shares or other Equity Securities, if any, for the account of other Persons that PubCo is obligated to register pursuant to separate written contractual piggyback registration rights of such Persons, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3.2(b), in the event a Demanding Holder has submitted notice for a bona fide Underwritten Shelf Takedown and all sales pursuant to such Underwritten Shelf Takedown pursuant to Section 3.1 have not been effected in accordance with the applicable plan of distribution or submitted a Withdrawal Notice prior to such time that PubCo has given written notice of a Piggyback Registration to all Piggyback Holders pursuant to Section 3.2, then any reduction in the number of Registrable Securities to be offered in such offering shall be determined in accordance with Section 3.1(e), instead of this Section 3.2(b).

(c) Piggyback Registration Withdrawal. Any Piggyback Holder shall have the right to withdraw from a Piggyback Registration for any or no reason whatsoever upon written notification to PubCo and the Underwriter or Underwriters (if any) of such Piggyback Holder’s intention to withdraw from such Piggyback Registration prior to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement filed with the SEC with respect to such Piggyback Registration or, in the case of a Piggyback Registration pursuant to a Shelf Registration, the filing of the applicable “red herring” prospectus or prospectus supplement with respect to such Piggyback Registration used

 

21


for marketing such transaction. PubCo (whether on its own good faith determination or as the result of a request for withdrawal by Persons pursuant to separate written contractual obligations) may withdraw a Registration Statement filed with the SEC in connection with a Piggyback Registration (which, in no circumstance, shall include the Shelf) at any time prior to the effectiveness of such Registration Statement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Investor Rights Agreement, PubCo shall be responsible for the Registration Expenses incurred in connection with the Piggyback Registration prior to its withdrawal under this Section 3.2(c).

(d) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, this Section 3.2 shall not apply (a) for any Holder or Party, prior to the expiration of the Lock-Up Period in respect of such Holder or Party or (b) to any Shelf Takedown irrespective of whether such Shelf Takedown is an Underwritten Shelf Takedown or not an Underwritten Shelf Takedown.

Section 3.3 Restrictions on Transfer. In connection with any Underwritten Offering of Equity Securities of PubCo, (i) each Holder that holds more than five percent (5%) of the issued and outstanding Common Shares agrees that it shall not Transfer any Common Shares (other than those included in such offering pursuant to this Investor Rights Agreement), without the prior written consent of PubCo, during the seven (7) calendar days prior (to the extent notice of such Underwritten Offering has been provided) to and the 90-day period beginning on the date of pricing of such offering, except in the event the Underwriter managing the offering otherwise agrees by written consent to a reduced period which shall apply to all Holders, and further agrees to execute a customary lock-up agreement in favor of the Underwriters to such effect (in each case on substantially the same terms and conditions as all such Holders), (ii) PubCo will use its reasonable best efforts to cause each of its directors and executive officers to execute a lock-up on terms at least as restrictive as that contemplated by the preceding clause (i) and (iii) PubCo will not effect any public offering or distribution of its equity securities or any securities convertible or exchangeable or exercisable for such securities during the period contemplated in clause (i) (other than (a) as part of any such Underwritten Offering, (b) in connection with a registration related to any employee stock option or other benefit plan, (c) an exchange offer or offering in connection with a business acquisition or combination pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form F-4 or S-4, as applicable, or such other similar form as may be applicable, (d) for an offering of debt that is convertible into equity securities of PubCo, or (e) for a dividend reinvestment plan); provided that the foregoing restriction shall not apply to any existing pledge or other existing grant of a security interest (and any related foreclosure or exercise of remedies) in connection with (x) up to the Annual Transfer Basket or (y) any Back Leverage. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Holder shall not be subject to this Section 3.3 with respect to an Underwritten Offering unless each Holder that holds at least five percent (5%) of the issued and outstanding Common Shares and each of PubCo’s directors and executive officers have executed a lock-up on terms at least as restrictive with respect to such Underwritten Offering as requested of the Holders.

Section 3.4 General Procedures. In connection with effecting any Registration and/or Shelf Takedown, subject to applicable Law and any regulations promulgated by any securities exchange on which PubCo’s Equity Securities are then listed, each as interpreted by PubCo with the advice of its counsel, PubCo shall use its reasonable best efforts (except as set forth in clause (d) below) to effect such Registration to permit the sale of the Registrable Securities included in such Registration in accordance with the intended plan of distribution thereof, and pursuant thereto PubCo shall, as expeditiously as possible:

 

22


(a) prepare and file with the SEC as soon as practicable a Registration Statement with respect to such Registrable Securities and use its reasonable best efforts to cause such Registration Statement to become effective and remain effective until all Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement have been sold;

(b) prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and post-effective amendments to the Registration Statement, and such supplements to the Prospectus, as may be reasonably requested by any Holder or as may be required by the rules, regulations or instructions applicable to the registration form used by PubCo or by the Securities Act or rules and regulations thereunder to keep the Registration Statement effective until all Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement are sold in accordance with the intended plan of distribution set forth in such Registration Statement or supplement to the Prospectus;

(c) prior to filing a Registration Statement or Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, furnish without charge to the Underwriters, if any, and the Special Holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration, and such Special Holders’ legal counsel, if any, copies of such Registration Statement as proposed to be filed, each amendment and supplement to such Registration Statement (in each case including all exhibits thereto and documents incorporated by reference therein), the Prospectus included in such Registration Statement (including each preliminary Prospectus), and such other documents as the Underwriters or the Special Holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration or the legal counsel for any such Special Holders, if any, may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by such Special Holders;

(d) prior to any public offering of Registrable Securities, use its best efforts to (i) register or qualify the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement under such securities or “blue sky” Laws of such jurisdictions in the United States as the Holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement (in light of their intended plan of distribution) may request (or provide evidence satisfactory to such Holders that the Registrable Securities are exempt from such registration or qualification) and (ii) take such action necessary to cause such Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement to be registered with or approved by such other Governmental Entities as may be necessary by virtue of the business and operations of PubCo and do any and all other acts and things that may be necessary or advisable to enable the Holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement to consummate the disposition of such Registrable Securities in such jurisdictions; provided, however, that PubCo shall not be required to qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify or take any action to which it would be subject to general service of process or taxation in any such jurisdiction where it is not then otherwise so subject;

(e) cause all such Registrable Securities to be listed on each securities exchange or automated quotation system on which similar securities issued by PubCo are then listed;

 

23


(f) provide a transfer agent or warrant agent, as applicable, and registrar for all such Registrable Securities no later than the effective date of such Registration Statement;

(g) advise each Holder of Registrable Securities covered by a Registration Statement, promptly after it shall receive notice or obtain knowledge thereof, of the issuance of any stop order by the SEC suspending the effectiveness of such Registration Statement or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose and promptly use its reasonable best efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order or to obtain its withdrawal if such stop order should be issued;

(h) at least three (3) calendar days prior to the filing of any Registration Statement or Prospectus or any amendment or supplement to such Registration Statement or Prospectus or any document that is to be incorporated by reference into such Registration Statement or Prospectus furnish a draft thereof to each Special Holder of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement, or its counsel, if any (excluding any exhibits thereto and any filing made under the Exchange Act that is to be incorporated by reference therein);

(i) notify the Holders at any time when a Prospectus relating to such Registration Statement is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, of the happening of any event as a result of which the Prospectus included in such Registration Statement, as then in effect, includes a Misstatement, and then to correct such Misstatement as set forth in Section 3.7;

(j) permit Representatives of the Special Holders, the Underwriters, if any, and any attorney, consultant or accountant retained by such Special Holders or Underwriter to participate, at each such Person’s own expense except to the extent such expenses constitute Registration Expenses, in the preparation of the Registration Statement, and cause PubCo’s officers, directors and employees to supply all information reasonably requested by any such Representative, Underwriter, attorney, consultant or accountant in connection with the Registration; provided, however, that such Persons agree to confidentiality arrangements reasonably satisfactory to PubCo, prior to the release or disclosure of any such information;

(k) obtain a “cold comfort” letter, and a bring-down thereof, from PubCo’s independent registered public accountants in the event of an Underwritten Offering which the participating Special Holders may rely on, in customary form and covering such matters of the type customarily covered by “cold comfort” letters as the managing Underwriter may reasonably request, and reasonably satisfactory to the participating Special Holders;

(l) on the date the Registrable Securities are delivered for sale pursuant to such Registration, obtain an opinion and negative assurances letter, dated such date, of counsel representing PubCo for the purposes of such Registration, addressed to the Special Holders, the placement agent or sales agent, if any, and the Underwriters, if any, covering such legal matters with respect to the Registration in respect of which such opinion is being given as the Special Holders, placement agent, sales agent, or Underwriter may reasonably request and as are customarily included in such opinions and negative assurance letters, and reasonably satisfactory to the participating Special Holders;

 

24


(m) in the event of any Underwritten Offering, enter into and perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement, in usual and customary form, with the managing Underwriter of such offering;

(n) make available to its security holders, as soon as reasonably practicable, an earnings statement which satisfies the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and Rule 158 thereunder (or any successor rule promulgated thereafter by the SEC);

(o) if an Underwritten Offering involves Registrable Securities with a total offering price (including piggyback securities and before deduction of underwriting discounts) reasonably expected to exceed, in the aggregate, $35 million, use its reasonable best efforts to make available senior executives of PubCo to participate in customary “road show” presentations that may be reasonably requested by the Underwriter in such Underwritten Offering; and

(p) otherwise, in good faith, cooperate reasonably with, and take such customary actions as may reasonably be requested, by the Holders, in connection with such Registration, including causing senior management to participate in meetings with Underwriters, attorneys, accountants and potential investors.

Section 3.5 Registration Expenses. The Registration Expenses of all Registrations shall be borne by PubCo. It is acknowledged by the Holders that the Holders selling any Registrable Securities in an offering shall bear all incremental selling expenses relating to the sale of Registrable Securities, such as Underwriters’ commissions and discounts, brokerage fees, Underwriter marketing costs and, other than as set forth in the definition of “Registration Expenses,” all reasonable fees and expenses of any legal counsel representing such Holders, in each case pro rata based on the number of Registrable Securities that such Holders have sold in such Registration.

Section 3.6 Requirements for Participating in Underwritten Offerings. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Investor Rights Agreement, if any Holder does not provide PubCo with its requested Holder Information, PubCo may exclude such Holder’s Registrable Securities from the applicable Registration Statement or Prospectus if PubCo determines, based on the advice of counsel, that such information is necessary to effect the registration and such Holder continues thereafter to withhold such information. No Person may participate in any Underwritten Offering of Equity Securities of PubCo pursuant to a Registration under this Investor Rights Agreement unless such Person (a) agrees to sell such Person’s Registrable Securities on the basis provided in any underwriting and other arrangements approved by PubCo in the case of an Underwritten Offering initiated by PubCo, and approved by the Demanding Holders in the case of an Underwritten Offering initiated by the Demanding Holders and (b) completes and executes all customary questionnaires, powers of attorney, custody agreements, indemnities, lock-up agreements, underwriting agreements and other customary documents as may be reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements. Subject to the minimum thresholds set forth in Section 3.1(c) and 3.4(o), the exclusion of a Holder’s Registrable Securities as a result of this Section 3.6 shall not affect the registration of the other Registrable Securities to be included in such Registration.

 

25


Section 3.7 Suspension of Sales; Adverse Disclosure. Upon receipt of written notice from PubCo that a Registration Statement or Prospectus contains a Misstatement, each of the Holders shall forthwith discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities until it has received copies of a supplemented or amended Prospectus correcting the Misstatement (and PubCo hereby covenants to prepare and file such supplement or amendment as soon as practicable after giving such notice), or until it is advised in writing by PubCo that the use of the Prospectus may be resumed. If the filing, initial effectiveness or continued use of a Registration Statement in respect of any Registration at any time would require PubCo to make an Adverse Disclosure or would require the inclusion in such Registration Statement of financial statements that are unavailable to PubCo for reasons beyond PubCo’s control, PubCo may, upon giving prompt written notice of such action to the Holders, delay the filing or initial effectiveness of, or suspend use of, such Registration Statement for the shortest period of time, but in no event more than 90 days in any 12-month period, determined in good faith by PubCo to be necessary for such purpose. In the event PubCo exercises its rights under the preceding sentence, the Holders agree to suspend, immediately upon their receipt of the notice referred to above, their use of the Prospectus relating to such Registration in connection with any sale or offer to sell Registrable Securities. PubCo shall immediately notify the Holders of the expiration of any period during which it exercised its rights under this Section 3.7.

Section 3.8 Reporting Obligations. As long as any Holder shall own Registrable Securities, PubCo, at all times while it shall be a reporting company under the Exchange Act, covenants to file timely (or obtain extensions in respect thereof and file within the applicable grace period) all reports required to be filed by PubCo after the Effective Date 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 SEC pursuant to the Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval System shall be deemed to have been furnished to the Holders pursuant to this Section 3.8.

Section 3.9 Other Obligations. In connection with a Transfer of Registrable Securities exempt from Section 5 of the Securities Act or through any broker-dealer transactions described in the plan of distribution set forth within the Prospectus and pursuant to the Registration Statement of which such Prospectus forms a part, PubCo shall, subject to applicable Law, as interpreted by PubCo with the advice of counsel, and the receipt of any customary documentation required from the applicable Holders in connection therewith, (a) promptly instruct its transfer agent to remove any restrictive legends applicable to the Registrable Securities being Transferred and (b) cause its legal counsel to deliver the necessary legal opinions, if any, to the transfer agent in connection with the instruction under clause (a). In addition, PubCo shall cooperate reasonably with, and take such customary actions as may reasonably be requested by the Holders, in connection with the aforementioned Transfers; provided, however, that PubCo shall have no obligation to participate in any “road shows” or assist with the preparation of any offering memoranda or related documentation with respect to any Transfer of Registrable Securities in any transaction that does not constitute an Underwritten Offering.

 

26


Section 3.10 Indemnification and Contribution.

(a) PubCo agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Holder, its officers, managers, directors, trustees, equityholders, beneficiaries, affiliates, agents and Representatives and each Person who controls such Holder (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against all losses, claims, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) (or actions in respect thereto) caused by, resulting from, arising out of or based upon (i) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in any Registration Statement, Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus or similar document incident to any Registration, qualification, compliance or sale effected pursuant to this Article III 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, or (ii) any violation or alleged violation by PubCo of the Securities Act or any other similar federal or state securities Laws, and will reimburse, as incurred, each such Holder, its officers, managers, directors, trustees, equityholders, beneficiaries, affiliates, agents and Representatives and each Person who controls such Holder (within the meaning of the Securities Act) for any legal and any other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action; provided that, PubCo will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such claim, damage, loss, liability or expense are caused by or arises out of or is based on any untrue statement or omission made in reliance and in conformity with written information furnished to PubCo by or on behalf of such Holder expressly for use therein. PubCo shall indemnify the Underwriters, their officers and directors and each Person who controls such Underwriters (within the meaning of the Securities Act) to the same extent as provided in the foregoing sentence with respect to the indemnification of each Holder.

(b) In connection with any Registration Statement in which a Holder of Registrable Securities is participating, such Holder shall furnish to PubCo in writing such information and affidavits as PubCo reasonably requests for use in connection with any such Registration Statement or Prospectus (the “Holder Information”) and, to the extent permitted by Law, such Holder shall indemnify and hold harmless PubCo, its directors, officers, employees, equityholders, affiliates and agents and each Person who controls PubCo (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) (or actions in respect thereof) arising out of, resulting from or based on any untrue statement of material fact contained in the Registration Statement, Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus or similar document or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or any omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but only to the extent that such untrue statement or omission is contained in any information or affidavit so furnished in writing by or on behalf of 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 sentence with respect to indemnification of PubCo.

(c) Any Person entitled to indemnification under this Section 3.10 shall (i) give prompt written notice, after such Person has actual knowledge thereof, to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which such Person seeks indemnification (provided that the failure to give prompt notice shall not impair any Person’s right to indemnification hereunder to the

 

27


extent such failure has not materially prejudiced the indemnifying party in the defense of any such claim or any such litigation) and (ii) permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party (not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) and the indemnified party may participate in such defense at the indemnifying party’s expense if representation of such indemnified party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such indemnified party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. An indemnifying party, in the defense of any such claim or litigation, without the consent of each indemnified party, may only consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement that (i) includes as a term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff therein to such indemnified party of an unconditional release from all liability with respect to such claim or litigation and (ii) does not include any recovery (including any statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of such indemnified party) other than monetary damages, and provided, that any sums payable in connection with such settlement are paid in full by the indemnifying party.

(d) The indemnification provided under this Investor Rights Agreement shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the indemnified party or any officer, manager, director, Representative or controlling Person of such indemnified party and shall survive the Transfer of securities.

(e) If the indemnification provided in this Section 3.10 from the indemnifying party is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses referred to herein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying the indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact, was made by, or 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 3.10(e) 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 3.10(a), 3.10(b) and 3.10(c), any legal or other fees, charges or expenses reasonably incurred by such Party in connection with any investigation or proceeding. The Parties agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 3.10(e) 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 3.10(e). 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 3.10(e) from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

 

28


Section 3.11 Other Registration Rights. Other than the registration rights set forth in the Original RRA and in the Subscription Agreements, PubCo represents and warrants that no Person, other than a Holder of Registrable Securities pursuant to this Investor Rights Agreement, has any right to require PubCo to register any securities of PubCo for sale or to include such securities of PubCo in any Registration Statement filed by PubCo for the sale of securities for its own account or for the account of any other Person. Further, each of PubCo, the Sponsor, the DMY Independent Directors and the Sponsor Principals represents and warrants that this Investor Rights Agreement supersedes any other registration rights agreement or agreement (including the Original RRA), other than the Subscription Agreements. The parties hereby terminate the Original RRA, which shall be of no further force and effect and is hereby superseded and replaced in its entirety by this Investor Rights Agreement. Without the prior written consent of the majority in interest of the Special Holders, PubCo shall not hereafter enter into any agreement with respect to its securities which is inconsistent with or violates the rights granted to the holders of Registrable Securities in this Investor Rights Agreement and in the event of any conflict between any such agreement or agreements and this Investor Rights Agreement, the terms of this Investor Rights Agreement shall prevail.

Section 3.12 Rule 144. With a view to making available to the Holders the benefits of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, PubCo covenants that it will (a) make available at all times information necessary to comply with Rule 144, if such Rule is available with respect to resales of the Registrable Securities under the Securities Act, and (b) take such further action as the Holders may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable them to sell Registrable Securities without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act (if available with respect to resales of the Registrable Securities), as such rule may be amended from time to time. Upon the request of any Holder, PubCo will deliver to such Holder a written statement as to whether PubCo has complied with such information requirements, and, if not, the specific reasons for non-compliance.

Section 3.13 Term. Article III shall terminate with respect to any Holder on the date that such Holder no longer holds any Registrable Securities. The provisions of Section 3.10 shall survive any such termination with respect to such Holder.

Section 3.14 Holder Information. Each Holder agrees, if requested in writing by PubCo, to represent to PubCo the total number of Registrable Securities held by such Holder in order for PubCo to make determinations under this Investor Rights Agreement, including for purposes of Section 3.12. Other than the Sellers and the Founder Holders, a Party who does not hold Registrable Securities as of the Closing Date and who acquires Registrable Securities after the Closing Date will not be a “Holder” until such Party gives PubCo a representation in writing of the number of Registrable Securities it holds.

Section 3.15 Termination of Original RRA. Upon the Closing, PubCo, the Sponsor, the Sponsor Principals and the DMY Independent Directors hereby agree that the Original RRA and all of the respective rights and obligations of the parties thereunder are hereby terminated in their entirety and shall be of no further force or effect.

Section 3.16 Distributions; Direct Ownership.

 

29


(a) In the event that the Sponsor distributes all of its Registrable Securities to its members, the members of the Sponsor shall be treated as the Sponsor under this Investor Rights Agreement; provided that such members of the Sponsor, taken as a whole, shall not be entitled to rights in excess of those conferred on the Sponsor, as if the Sponsor remained a single entity party to this Investor Rights Agreement.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the event that the members of the Sponsor hold any Registrable Securities directly, the members of the Sponsor shall be treated as the Sponsor under this Investor Rights Agreement; provided that the members of the Sponsor, taken as a whole, shall not be entitled to rights in excess of those conferred on the Sponsor, as if the Sponsor remained a single entity party to this Investor Rights Agreement.

(c) In the event that a Seller distributes all of its Registrable Securities to its members, such distributees shall be treated as a Seller under this Investor Rights Agreement; provided that such distributees, taken as a whole, shall not be entitled to rights in excess of those conferred on a Seller, as if such Seller remained a single party to this Investor Rights Agreement.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no distribution for purposes of this Section 3.16 may occur prior to the conclusion of any Lock-Up Period applicable to the Sponsor or such Seller, as applicable.

Section 3.17 Adjustments. If there are any changes in the Common Shares as a result of share split, share dividend, combination or reclassification, or through merger, consolidation, recapitalization or other similar event, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the provisions of this Investor Rights Agreement, as may be required, so that the rights, privileges, duties and obligations under this Investor Rights Agreement shall continue with respect to the Common Shares as so changed.

(a) Following the expiration of the Management Lock-Up Period until the earlier of (i) the third (3rd) anniversary of the Closing Date and (ii) the date on which Apax (together with its Permitted Transferees) no longer Beneficially Owns Common Shares representing at least 10% of the Common Shares held by Apax immediately after the Closing, any Management may Transfer any or all of such Management’s Common Shares in compliance with all applicable securities Law and the terms of this Investor Rights Agreement; provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, except pursuant to the Annual Transfer Basket or to a Permitted Transferee (who has executed and returned a joinder in the form attached as Exhibit A and is subject to the same rights and obligations as the transferring Restricted Holder), no Restricted Holder shall Transfer any Common Shares to the extent that such Transfer would result in the Relative Ownership Percentage of such Restricted Holder immediately following such Transfer (the “Determination Time”) being less than the Relative Ownership Percentage of Apax as of such time; provided, further, that for the avoidance of any doubt and notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, (i) any Transfer pursuant to this Agreement (excluding any Transfer to a Permitted Transferee who is bound under a joinder) shall be included as a Transfer for the purposes of calculating a Restricted Holder’s Annual Transfer Basket as of any time, and (ii) any Transfer pursuant to Article III shall remain subject to the transfer restrictions set forth in this Agreement, including the provisions of Article IV. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Agreement shall restrict any Transfer of Common Shares by the Significant Co-Investor following the expiry of the Lock-Up Period applicable to such Significant Co-Investor. Notwithstanding anything in this Investor Rights Agreement to the contrary, no Transfer of Common Shares otherwise permitted or required by this Investor Rights Agreement shall be made unless such Transfer is in compliance with applicable Laws, including the Securities Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, the laws of the State of Delaware and the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 4.4.

 

32


(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, nothing set forth herein shall be deemed to permit the Transfer of any Restricted Shares pursuant to this Section 4.4, so long as such securities remain Restricted Shares.

ARTICLE V

GENERAL PROVISIONS

Section 5.1 Assignment; Successors and Assigns; No Third Party Beneficiaries.

(a) Except as otherwise permitted pursuant to this Investor Rights Agreement, and other than assignments in connection with a distribution pursuant to Section 3.16, no Party may assign such Party’s rights and obligations under this Investor Rights Agreement, in whole or in part, without the prior written consent of Apax, in the case of an assignment by the Sponsor, a Sponsor Principal, any Management or any Co-Investor, or the Sponsor, in the case of an assignment by Apax. Any such assignee may not again assign those rights, other than in accordance with this Article V. Any attempted assignment of rights or obligations in violation of this Article V shall be null and void. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no DMY Independent Director my assign its rights or obligations under this Investor Rights Agreement.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Investor Rights Agreement (other than the succeeding sentence of this Section 5.1(b)), (i) prior to the expiration of the Lock-Up Period applicable to such Holder, no Holder may Transfer such Holder’s rights or obligations under this Investor Rights Agreement in connection with a Transfer of such Holder’s Registrable Securities, in whole or in part, except in connection with a Transfer pursuant to Section 4.2 or a Transfer permitted under Section 4.1(a) (including, for avoidance of doubt, pursuant to any Back Leverage); and (ii) after the expiration of the Lock-Up Period applicable to such Holder, a Holder may Transfer such Holder’s rights or obligations under this Investor Rights Agreement in connection with a Transfer of such Holder’s Registrable Securities, in whole or in part, to (x) any of such Holder’s Permitted Transferees, or (y) any Person with the prior written consent of PubCo. In no event can the Sponsor, the Founder Holders or Sellers assign any of such Person’s rights under Section 2.1. Any Transferee of Registrable Securities (other than pursuant to an effective Registration Statement or a Rule 144 transaction) pursuant to this Section 5.1(b) shall be required, at the time of and as a condition to such Transfer, to become a party to this Investor Rights Agreement by executing and delivering a joinder in the form attached to this Investor Rights Agreement as Exhibit A, whereupon such Transferee will be treated as a Party (with the same rights and obligations as the Transferor) for all purposes of this Investor Rights Agreement. No Transfer of Registrable Securities by a Holder shall be registered on PubCo’s books and records, and such Transfer of Registrable Securities shall be null and void and not otherwise effective, unless any such Transfer is made in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Investor Rights Agreement, and PubCo is hereby authorized by all of the Holders to enter appropriate stop transfer notations on its transfer records to give effect to this Investor Rights Agreement.

 

33


(c) All of the terms and provisions of this Investor Rights Agreement shall be binding upon the Parties and their respective successors, assigns, heirs and representatives, but shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the successors, assigns, heirs and representatives of any Party only to the extent that they are permitted successors, assigns, heirs and representatives pursuant to the terms of this Investor Rights Agreement.

(d) Nothing in this Investor Rights Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any Party, other than the Parties and their respective permitted successors, assigns, heirs and representatives, any rights or remedies under this Investor Rights Agreement or otherwise create any third party beneficiary hereto.

Section 5.2 Termination. Except for Section 2.1(i) and Section 2.1(j) which shall survive any termination hereof, and except for Section 2.1(k) which shall each automatically terminate when Apax is no longer eligible for the rights set forth therein, Article II shall terminate automatically (without any action by any Party) as to any Seller or the Sponsor, as applicable, at such time at which such Party no longer has the right to designate an individual for nomination to the Board under this Investor Rights Agreement. Article III of this Investor Rights Agreement shall terminate as set forth in Section 3.13. The remainder of this Investor Rights Agreement shall terminate automatically (without any action by any Party) as to each Holder when such Holder ceases to Beneficially Own any Registrable Securities; provided that, the provisions of Section 3.10 shall survive any such termination with respect to such Holder.

Section 5.3 Severability. If any provision of this Investor Rights Agreement is determined to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable by any Governmental Entity, the remaining provisions of this Investor Rights Agreement, to the extent permitted by Law shall remain in full force and effect.

Section 5.4 Entire Agreement; Amendments; No Waiver.

(a) This Investor Rights Agreement, together with the Exhibit to this Investor Rights Agreement, the BCA, and all other Ancillary Agreements, constitute the entire agreement among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersede all prior and contemporaneous agreements, understandings and discussions, whether oral or written, relating to such subject matter in any way and there are no warranties, representations or other agreements among the Parties in connection with such subject matter except as set forth in this Investor Rights Agreement and therein.

(b) No provision of this Investor Rights Agreement may be amended or modified in whole or in part at any time without the express written consent of (i) PubCo, (ii) for so long as Apax and its Permitted Transferees collectively Beneficially Own Common Shares representing ten percent (10%) or more of the Common Shares held by Apax and its Permitted Transferees immediately after the Closing, Apax, (iii) for so long as the Sponsor and its Permitted Transferees collectively Beneficially Own Common Shares representing fifty percent (50%) or more of the Common Shares held by the Sponsor immediately after the Closing, the Sponsor, and (iv) in any event at least the Holders holding in the aggregate more than fifty percent (50%) of the Registrable Securities Beneficially Owned by the Holders; provided that any such amendment or modification that would be (i) materially adverse in any respect to any Holder shall

 

34


require the prior written consent of such Holder and (ii) adverse and disproportionate in any respect to Mark Locke relative to Apax shall require the prior written consent of Mark Locke (it being understood that any amendments to Section 2.1(a)(ii), Section 3.1(d), Section 4.4, Section 5.13 and the definitions of “Annual Transfer Basket”, “Annual Transfer Basket Reset Date” and “Tax Transfer Basket” shall require the prior written consent of Mark Locke); provided, further that a provision that has terminated with respect to a Party shall not require any consent of such Party (and such Party’s Common Shares shall not be considered in computing any percentages) with respect to amending or modifying such provision.

(c) No waiver of any provision or default under, nor consent to any exception to, the terms of this Investor Rights Agreement shall be effective unless in writing and signed by the Party to be bound and then only to the specific purpose, extent and instance so provided; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, no waiver of any provision or default under, nor consent to any exception to, the terms and provisions of Article IV shall be effective unless in writing and signed by each of (i) PubCo, (ii) for so long as Apax and its Permitted Transferees collectively Beneficially Own Common Shares representing ten percent (10%) or more of the Common Shares held by Apax and its Permitted Transferees immediately after the Closing, Apax, (iii) for so long as the Sponsor and its Permitted Transferees collectively Beneficially Own Common Shares representing fifty percent (50%) or more of the Common Shares held by the Sponsor immediately after the Closing, the Sponsor, (iv) at least the Holders holding in the aggregate more than fifty percent (50%) of the Registrable Securities Beneficially Owned by the Holders and (v) if such Party is not already required to sign pursuant to clauses (i) through (iv), the Party to be bound.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.4, other than with respect to amendments, modifications, waivers or consents relating to or airing out of Article IV, no amendment, modification, waiver or consent shall be required by (i) the Sponsor or its Permitted Transferees, with respect to any provision that has, in accordance with Section 5.2, terminated as to the Sponsor, the Founder Holders and the Sponsor Principals or (ii) Apax or its Permitted Transferees, with respect to any provision that has, in accordance with Section 5.2, terminated as to Apax.

Section 5.5 Counterparts; Electronic Delivery. This Investor Rights Agreement and any other agreements, certificates, instruments and documents delivered pursuant to this Investor Rights Agreement may be executed and delivered in one or more counterparts and by fax, email or other electronic transmission, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement. No Party shall raise the use of a fax machine or email to deliver a signature or the fact that any signature or agreement or instrument was transmitted or communicated through the use of a fax machine or email as a defense to the formation or enforceability of a contract and each Party forever waives any such defense.

Section 5.6 Notices. All notices, demands and other communications to be given or delivered under this Investor Rights Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been given (a) when personally delivered (or, if delivery is refused, upon presentment) or received by email (with confirmation of transmission) prior to 5:00 p.m. eastern time on a Business Day and, if otherwise, on the next Business Day, (b) one (1) Business Day following sending by reputable overnight express courier (charges prepaid) or (c) three (3) calendar days following mailing by certified or registered mail, postage prepaid and return receipt requested.

Section 5.7 Governing Law; Waiver of Jury Trial; Jurisdiction. The Law of the State of Delaware shall govern (a) all Proceedings, claims or matters related to or arising from this Investor Rights Agreement (including any tort or non-contractual claims) and (b) any questions concerning the construction, interpretation, validity and enforceability of this Investor Rights Agreement, and the performance of the obligations imposed by this Investor Rights Agreement, in each case without giving effect to any choice of Law or conflict of Law rules or provisions (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the Law of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware. EACH PARTY TO THIS INVESTOR RIGHTS AGREEMENT HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY PROCEEDING BROUGHT TO RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE BETWEEN OR AMONG ANY OF THE PARTIES (WHETHER ARISING IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF, CONNECTED WITH, RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THIS INVESTOR RIGHTS AGREEMENT, THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS INVESTOR RIGHTS AGREEMENT AND/OR THE RELATIONSHIPS ESTABLISHED AMONG THE PARTIES UNDER THIS INVESTOR RIGHTS AGREEMENT. THE PARTIES HERETO FURTHER WARRANT AND REPRESENT THAT EACH HAS REVIEWED THIS WAIVER WITH ITS LEGAL COUNSEL, AND THAT EACH KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVES ITS JURY TRIAL RIGHTS FOLLOWING CONSULTATION WITH LEGAL COUNSEL. Except to the extent the terms hereof require interpretation of a law, regulation or public policy of Guernsey, in which case the law, regulations and public policies of Guernsey shall govern, each of the Parties submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of first, the Chancery Court of the State of Delaware or if such court declines jurisdiction, then to the Federal District Court for the District of Delaware, in any Proceeding arising out of or relating to this Investor Rights Agreement, agrees that all claims in respect of the Proceeding shall be heard and determined in any such court and agrees not to bring any Proceeding arising out of or relating to this Investor Rights Agreement in any other courts. Nothing in this Section 5.7, however, shall affect the right of any Party to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by Law or at equity. Each Party agrees that a final judgment in any Proceeding so brought shall be conclusive and may be enforced by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Law or at equity.

Section 5.8 Specific Performance. Each Party hereby agrees and acknowledges that it will be impossible to measure in money the damages that would be suffered if the Parties fail to comply with any of the obligations imposed on them by this Investor Rights Agreement and that, in the event of any such failure, an aggrieved Party will be irreparably damaged and will not have an adequate remedy at Law. Any such Party shall, therefore, be entitled (in addition to any other

 

38


remedy to which such Party may be entitled at Law or in equity) to seek injunctive relief, including specific performance, to enforce such obligations, without the posting of any bond, and if any Proceeding should be brought in equity to enforce any of the provisions of this Investor Rights Agreement, none of the Parties shall raise the defense that there is an adequate remedy at Law.

Section 5.9 Subsequent Acquisition of Shares. Any Equity Securities of PubCo acquired subsequent to the Effective Date by a Holder shall be subject to the terms and conditions of this Investor Rights Agreement and such shares shall be considered to be “Registrable Securities” as such term is used in this Investor Rights Agreement.

Section 5.10 Legends. Each of the Holders acknowledges that (i) no Transfer, hypothecation or assignment of any Registrable Securities Beneficially Owned by such Holder may be made except in compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws and (ii) PubCo shall place customary restrictive legends substantially in the form set forth below on the certificates or book entries representing the Registrable Securities subject to this Investor Rights Agreement. Upon request of the applicable Holder, upon receipt by PubCo of an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to PubCo to the effect that such legend is no longer required under the Securities Act or such other documentation reasonably requested by PubCo, PubCo shall promptly cause the first paragraph of the legend to be removed from any certificate or book entry representing the Registrable Securities and the second paragraph of the legend shall be removed upon the expiration of such transfer and other restrictions set forth in this Agreement (and, for the avoidance of doubt, immediately prior to any termination of this Agreement).

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS INSTRUMENT HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE AND MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED, SOLD OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF EXCEPT WHILE A REGISTRATION STATEMENT RELATING THERETO IS IN EFFECT UNDER SUCH ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER SUCH ACT OR SUCH LAWS.

THESE SECURITIES ARE SUBJECT TO THE RESTRICTIONS SET FORTH IN THE INVESTOR RIGHTS AGREEMENT, DATED OCTOBER 27 (THE “INVESTOR RIGHTS AGREEMENT”), BY AND AMONG GALILEO NEWCO LIMITED (THE “COMPANY”), MAVEN TOPHOLDINGS S.A.R.L, DMY SPONSOR II, LLC AND THE OTHER PARTIES NAMED THEREIN, AS THE SAME MAY BE AMENDED OR RESTATED FROM TIME TO TIME (COPIES OF WHICH ARE ON FILE WITH THE SECRETARY OF THE COMPANY AND SHALL BE PROVIDED FREE OF CHARGE TO ANY PARTY MAKING A BONA FIDE REQUEST THEREFOR) AND NO TRANSFER OF THESE SECURITIES WILL BE VALID OR EFFECTIVE UNTIL ANY CONDITIONS CONTAINED IN THE INVESTOR RIGHTS AGREEMENT, IF ANY, HAVE BEEN FULFILLED.

Section 5.11 No Third Party Liabilities. This Investor Rights Agreement may only be enforced against the named parties hereto (and their Permitted Transferees). All claims or causes of action (whether in contract or tort) that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to any of this Investor Rights Agreement, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Investor Rights

 

39


Agreement (including any representation or warranty made in or in connection with this Investor Rights Agreement or as an inducement to enter into this Investor Rights Agreement), may be made only against the Persons that are expressly identified as parties hereto (and their Permitted Transferees), as applicable; and, other than for any Permitted Transfereees, no past, present or future direct or indirect director, officer, employee, incorporator, member, partner, stockholder, Affiliate, portfolio company in which any such Party or any of its investment fund Affiliates have made a debt or equity investment (and vice versa), agent, attorney or representative of any Party hereto (including any Person negotiating or executing this Investor Rights Agreement on behalf of a Party hereto), unless a Party to this Investor Rights Agreement, shall have any liability or obligation with respect to this Investor Rights Agreement or with respect any claim or cause of action (whether in contract or tort) that may arise out of or relate to this Investor Rights Agreement, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Investor Rights Agreement (including a representation or warranty made in or in connection with this Investor Rights Agreement or as an inducement to enter into this Investor Rights Agreement).

Section 5.12 Indemnification; Exculpation.

(a) PubCo will, and PubCo will cause each of its subsidiaries to, jointly and severally indemnify, exonerate and hold the Holders and each of their respective direct and indirect partners, equityholders, members, managers, Affiliates, directors, officers, shareholders, fiduciaries, controlling Persons, employees, representatives and agents and each of the partners, equityholders, members, Affiliates, directors, officers, fiduciaries, managers, controlling Persons, employees and agents of each of the foregoing (collectively, the “Holder Indemnitees”) free and harmless from and against any and all actions, causes of action, suits, claims, liabilities, losses, damages and costs and out-of-pocket expenses in connection therewith (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by the Holder Indemnitees or any of them on or after the date of this Investor Rights Agreement (collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”), arising out of any third party action, cause of action, suit, litigation, investigation, inquiry, arbitration or claim (each, an “Action”) arising directly or indirectly out of, or in any way relating to, any Holder’s or its Affiliates’ ownership of Equity Securities of PubCo or control or ability to influence PubCo or any of its subsidiaries (other than any such Indemnified Liabilities (x) to the extent such Indemnified Liabilities arise out of any breach by such Holder Indemnitee of this Investor Rights Agreement, the BCA (to the extent such Holder Indemnitee is a party thereto), any agreement referenced or contemplated thereby to which such Holder Indemnitee is a party, or any other agreement between such Holder Indemnitee or any of its Affiliates, on the one hand, and PubCo or any of its subsidiaries, on the other hand, in each case by such Holder Indemnitee or its Affiliates or other related Persons, or the breach of any fiduciary or other duty or obligation (whether arising by Law or contract) of such Holder Indemnitee to (A) its direct or indirect equity holders, creditors or Affiliates or (B) PubCo, any of its subsidiaries or their respective equity holders, (y) to the extent such control or the ability to control PubCo or any of its subsidiaries derives from such Holder’s or its Affiliates’ capacity as an officer or director of PubCo or any of its subsidiaries, or (z) to the extent such Indemnified Liabilities are directly caused by such Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct); provided, however, that if and to the extent that the foregoing undertaking may be unavailable or unenforceable for any reason, PubCo will, and will cause its subsidiaries to, make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the Indemnified Liabilities that is permissible under applicable law. For the purposes of

 

40


this Section 5.12, none of the circumstances described in the limitations contained in the proviso in the immediately preceding sentence shall be deemed to apply absent a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to such effect, in which case to the extent any such limitation is so determined to apply to any Holder Indemnitee as to any previously advanced indemnity payments made by PubCo or any of its subsidiaries, then such payments shall be promptly repaid by such Holder Indemnitee to PubCo and its subsidiaries. The rights of any Holder Indemnitee to indemnification hereunder will be in addition to any other rights any such Person may have under any other agreement or instrument to which such Holder Indemnitee is or becomes a party or is or otherwise becomes a beneficiary or under law or regulation or under the organizational or governing documents of PubCo or its subsidiaries.

(b) PubCo will, and will cause each of its subsidiaries to, jointly and severally, reimburse any Holder Indemnitee for all reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses and any other litigation-related expenses) as they are incurred by such Holder Indemnitee in connection with investigating, preparing, pursuing, defending or assisting in the defense of any Action for which the Holder Indemnitee would be entitled to indemnification under the terms of this Section 5.12, or any action or proceeding arising therefrom. PubCo or its subsidiaries, in the defense of any Action for which a Holder Indemnitee would be entitled to indemnification under the terms of this Section 5.12, may, without the consent of such Holder Indemnitee, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement if and only if it (i) includes as a term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff therein to such Holder Indemnitee of an unconditional release from all liability with respect to such Action, (ii) does not impose any limitations (equitable or otherwise) on such Holder Indemnitee, and (iii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of such Holder Indemnitee, and provided, that the only penalty imposed in connection with such settlement is a monetary payment that will be paid in full by PubCo or its subsidiaries.

(c) PubCo acknowledges and agrees that PubCo shall, and to the extent applicable shall cause its subsidiaries to, be fully and primarily responsible for the payment to any Holder Indemnitee in respect of Indemnified Liabilities in connection with any Jointly Indemnifiable Claims (as defined below), pursuant to and in accordance with (as applicable) the terms of (i) the DGCL (as applicable pursuant to this Investor Rights Agreement) and Guernsey Law (as applicable pursuant to the Memorandum and Articles), (ii) any director indemnification agreement, (iii) this Investor Rights Agreement, any other agreement between PubCo or any of its subsidiaries and such Holder Indemnitee (or its Affiliates) pursuant to which such Holder Indemnitee is indemnified, (iv) the laws of the jurisdiction of incorporation or organization of any subsidiary of PubCo and/or (v) the certificate of incorporation, certificate of organization, bylaws, partnership agreement, operating agreement, certificate of formation, certificate of limited partnership or other organizational or governing documents of any subsidiary of PubCo ((i) through (v) collectively, the “Indemnification Sources”), irrespective of any right of recovery such Holder Indemnitee (or its Affiliates) may have from any corporation, limited liability company, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise (other than PubCo, any of its subsidiaries or the insurer under and pursuant to an insurance policy of PubCo or any of its subsidiaries) from whom such Holder Indemnitee may be entitled to indemnification with respect to which, in whole or in part, PubCo or any of its subsidiaries may also have an indemnification obligation (collectively, the “Indemnitee-Related Entities”). Under no

 

41


circumstance shall PubCo or any of its subsidiaries be entitled to any right of subrogation or contribution by the Indemnitee-Related Entities and no right of advancement or recovery any Holder Indemnitee may have from the Indemnitee-Related Entities shall reduce or otherwise alter the rights of such Holder Indemnitee or the obligations of PubCo or any of its subsidiaries under the Indemnification Sources. In the event that any of the Indemnitee-Related Entities shall make any payment to any Holder Indemnitee in respect of indemnification with respect to any Jointly Indemnifiable Claim, (x) PubCo shall, and to the extent applicable shall cause its subsidiaries to, reimburse the Indemnitee-Related Entity making such payment to the extent of such payment promptly upon written demand from such Indemnitee-Related Entity, (y) to the extent not previously and fully reimbursed by PubCo and/or any of its subsidiaries pursuant to clause (x), the Indemnitee-Related Entity making such payment shall be subrogated to the extent of the outstanding balance of such payment to all of the rights of recovery of the Holder Indemnitee against PubCo and/or any of its subsidiaries, as applicable, and (z) such Holder Indemnitee shall execute all papers reasonably required and shall do all things that may be reasonably necessary to secure such rights, including the execution of such documents as may be necessary to enable the Indemnitee-Related Entities effectively to bring suit to enforce such rights. Each of the Parties agree that each of the Indemnitee-Related Entities shall be third-party beneficiaries with respect to this Section 5.12(c), entitled to enforce this Section 5.12(c) as though each such Indemnitee-Related Entity were a party to this Investor Rights Agreement. PubCo shall cause each of its subsidiaries to perform the terms and obligations of this Section 5.12(c) as though each such subsidiary were a party to this Investor Rights Agreement. For purposes of this Section 5.12(c), the term “Jointly Indemnifiable Claims” shall be broadly construed and shall include, without limitation, any Indemnified Liabilities for which any Holder Indemnitee shall be entitled to indemnification from both (1) PubCo and/or any of its subsidiaries pursuant to the Indemnification Sources, on the one hand, and (2) any Indemnitee-Related Entity pursuant to any other agreement between any Indemnitee-Related Entity and such Holder Indemnitee (or its Affiliates) pursuant to which such Holder Indemnitee is indemnified, the laws of the jurisdiction of incorporation or organization of any Indemnitee-Related Entity and/or the certificate of incorporation, certificate of organization, bylaws, partnership agreement, operating agreement, certificate of formation, certificate of limited partnership or other organizational or governing documents of any Indemnitee-Related Entity, on the other hand.

(d) In no event shall any Holder Indemnitee be liable to PubCo or any of its subsidiaries for any act, alleged act, omission or alleged omission that does not constitute willful misconduct or fraud of such Holder Indemnitee as determined by a final, nonappealable determination of a court of competent jurisdiction.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Investor Rights Agreement, for purposes of this Section 5.12, the term Holder Indemnitees shall not include any Holder or its any of its partners, equityholders, members, Affiliates, directors, officers, fiduciaries, managers, controlling Persons, employees and agents or any of the partners, equityholders, members, Affiliates, directors, officers, fiduciaries, managers, controlling Persons, employees and agents of any of the foregoing, who is an officer or director of PubCo or any of its subsidiaries in such capacity as officer or director. Such officers and directors are or will be subject to separate indemnification in such capacity through this Investor Rights Agreement and/or the certificate of incorporation or organization, bylaws or limited partnership agreements and other instruments of PubCo and its subsidiaries.

 

42


(f) The rights of any Holder Indemnitee to indemnification pursuant to this Section 5.12 will be in addition to any other rights any such Person may have under any other section of this Investor Rights Agreement or any other agreement or instrument to which such Holder Indemnitee is or becomes a party or is or otherwise becomes a beneficiary or under law or regulation or under the certificate of limited partnership, limited partnership agreement, certificate of incorporation or bylaws (or equivalent governing documents) of PubCo or any of its subsidiaries.

Section 5.13 Back Leverage Cooperation. If requested by Apax, the Significant Co-Investor or any other Restricted Holder, PubCo will provide the following cooperation in connection with Apax or such Restricted Holder, as applicable, obtaining any Back Leverage: (i) entering into an issuer agreement (an “Issuer Agreement”) with each lender or counterparty providing such Back Leverage on customary terms, with such changes thereto as are requested by such lender or counterparty, (ii) (A) if so requested by such lender or counterparty, as applicable, issuing physical certificates or re-registering the pledged Registrable Securities, in the name of the relevant lender, counterparty, custodian or similar party to a Back Leverage, in certificated or restricted book-entry form on the books and records of PubCo’s transfer agent, in each case, subject to appropriate transfer restrictions and related restrictive legends or (B) without limiting the generality of clause (A), if such securities are eligible for resale under Rule 144A, depositing such pledged securities in book entry form on the books of The Depository Trust Company or other depository with customary 144A legends in lieu of any legends required thereon, (iii) entering into customary triparty agreements reasonably acceptable to PubCo with each lender or counterparty and Apax, the Significant Co-Investor or the Restricted Holder relating to the delivery of the Registrable Securities in certificated or restricted book-entry form on the books and records of PubCo’s transfer agent, subject to appropriate transfer restrictions and related restrictive legends, to the relevant lender or counterparty for crediting to the relevant collateral accounts upon funding of any Back Leverage, (iv) if so requested by Apax, the Significant Co-Investor or such Restricted Holder, as applicable, using reasonable best efforts to include exceptions to any underwriters’ lock-up to allow incurrence or maintenance of the Back Leverage and exercise of remedies thereunder and/or (v) such other cooperation and assistance in connection with such Back Leverage as Apax, the Significant Co-Investor or such Restricted Holder, as applicable, or such lender or counterparty may reasonably request.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements set forth herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties agree as follows:

AGREEMENT

1. Support Agreement / Power of Attorney.

(a) The Shareholder hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that, from and after the date hereof and until the earlier of the Closing or the valid termination of the BCA (the “Effective Period”), at any meeting of the shareholders of Topco or the Company (whether annual or extraordinary and whether or not adjourned or postponed or any other meeting of Topco or the Company), however called, on any written resolution, and in any action by written consent or resolution, in each case of the shareholders of Topco or the Company (collectively, “such meeting or written consent”), the Shareholder shall, solely in its capacity as a shareholder of Topco or the Company, as applicable, do the following:

(i) when such meeting is held, appear at such meeting (in person or by proxy pursuant to Section 1(b) below) or otherwise cause the Subject Securities to be counted as present thereat for the purpose of establishing a quorum;

(ii) vote the Subject Securities (or execute and return an action by written consent), or cause the Subject Securities to be voted (or validly execute and return and cause such consent to be granted with respect to), at such meeting or written consent in favor of the BCA, and the dealing with of the Subject Securities in accordance with the BCA, and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Pre-Closing Reorganization and Redemption (collectively, the “Transactions”), including with respect to any matter in furtherance of the Transactions or by any of the Ancillary Agreements for which a vote or approval of the shareholders of Topco or the Company is required (the “Transaction Approvals”); and

(iii) vote the Subject Securities (or execute and return an action by written consent), or cause the Subject Securities to be voted (or validly execute and return and cause such consent to be granted with respect to), at such meeting or written consent against any Competing Transaction.

(b) Except as set forth under the terms of the Management Investment Deed and/or the Investment Deed, as applicable, the Shareholder has revoked or terminated any proxies, voting agreements or similar arrangements previously given or entered into with respect to the Subject Securities. The Shareholder, to the maximum extent not prohibited by applicable Law does hereby constitute, appoint and grant to Maven TopHoldings S.à.r.l. (“Apax”) full power to act without others, as its true and lawful representative, agent and attorney-in-fact, in its name, place and stead, to make, execute or sign, acknowledge, swear to, verify, deliver, record, file and/or publish, as applicable, such actions, documents, deeds, agreements or instruments as may be required under the laws of Guernsey or any other jurisdiction or otherwise in connection with the Transaction Approvals (including executing and delivering the Investor Rights Agreement on behalf of the Shareholder, any document or instrument relating to such Shareholder’s ownership of the Subject Securities, including, following the Pre-Closing Reorganization, the Restricted


Shares (if any) and the restrictions that shall apply to them, and any document or instrument to implement all steps involved in the Pre-Closing Reorganization and the Redemption as set forth in the BCA); provided, however, that the power of attorney granted to Apax hereunder shall not be used to take any actions pursuant to any amended provision of the BCA in the event the BCA is amended following the Signing Date, to the extent any such amendment to the BCA (i) is adverse and disproportionate to the undersigned Shareholder in any respect relative to Apax under the terms of such amendment, or (ii) reduces the Company Equity Value. The Shareholder hereby empowers each agent and attorney-in-fact acting pursuant hereto to determine in its sole discretion the time when, purpose for and manner in which any power herein conferred upon it shall be exercised, and the conditions, provisions and covenants of any instruments or documents that may be executed by it pursuant hereto. The agency and powers of attorney granted herein shall be unconditional and irrevocable, and shall survive the death, incompetency, incapacity, disability, insolvency or dissolution of the Shareholder (regardless of whether Apax has notice thereof). The Shareholder agrees to execute such other documents as Apax may reasonably request in order to effect the intention and purposes of the agency and power of attorney contemplated by this Section 1(b). The Shareholder hereby approves, authorizes and ratifies everything which Apax shall lawfully do or purport to do pursuant to Section 1(b).

(c) The Shareholder hereby covenants and agrees that the Shareholder shall not, at any time prior to the earlier of the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 7(a) or the Closing, (i) enter into any voting agreement or voting trust with respect to any of the Subject Securities that is inconsistent with the Shareholder’s obligations pursuant to this Agreement, (ii) grant a proxy or power of attorney with respect to any of the Subject Securities that is inconsistent with the Shareholder’s obligations pursuant to this Agreement, or (iii) enter into any agreement or undertaking that is otherwise inconsistent with, or would interfere with, or prohibit or prevent it from satisfying, its obligations pursuant to this Agreement.

2. Release of Claims. In consideration for the payments and other benefits to be received by the Shareholder under the terms of the BCA, subject to and effective as of the Closing, the Shareholder, for and on behalf of himself, herself or itself and each of his, her or its, as applicable, heirs, executors, administrators, personal representatives, successors, assigns, subsidiaries, predecessors, parent companies, shareholders and Affiliates and in each case, each of their respective Affiliates, officers, directors, partners, employees, agents, attorneys, and other representatives, hereby acknowledges full and complete satisfaction of and fully and irrevocably releases and forever discharges the Company, Topco, dMY (and, for the avoidance of doubt, the Trust Account), the Target Companies, each of their respective subsidiaries and their predecessors, successors, assignees, parent companies, shareholders and investors (direct and indirect) and, in each case, each of their respective Affiliates, officers, directors, partners, employees, agents, attorneys and other representatives, past and present (collectively, the “Released Entities”), from liability on or for any and all charges, claims, controversies, actions, causes of action, cross claims, counterclaims, demands, debts, duties, sanctions, fines, compensatory damages, liquidated damages, punitive or exemplary damages, other damages, claims for costs, attorney’s fees, sums of money, suits, contracts, covenants, controversies, agreements, promises, responsibilities, obligations and accounts of any kind, nature or description whatsoever in Law or in equity (“Actions”), direct or indirect, past, present and future, and whether or not now or heretofore known, suspected, matured or unmatured, contingent or uncontingent, or claimed against the Released Entities, through and including the Closing, arising out of, or relating to, (i) such Shareholder’s ownership of equity or debt interests in any Target Company, including Topco or the Company, prior to the Closing (including any and all Actions such Shareholder may have against the Released Entities in such Shareholder’s capacity as a securityholder or a debtholder of any Target Company) and (ii) the organization, management or operation of the businesses of any Target Company relating to any matter, occurrence, action, inaction, omission or activity prior to the Closing, in each case, in such Shareholder’s capacity as an equity or debt securityholder; provided, that such release shall not release the Released Entities for (i) any liabilities or Actions that such Shareholder has pursuant to its right


to receive its portion of the Company Equity Value determined in accordance with, and subject to, the terms of, and the steps set forth in, the BCA, (ii) any Actions arising out of or related to the Released Entities’ respective Governing Document, to provide indemnification, reimbursement or advancement of expenses to such Shareholder in respect of actions taken or omitted in such Shareholder’s capacity as an officer and/or director of such Released Entity prior to the Closing, (iii) any Actions arising out of or related to the Released Entities’ contracts with or obligations to any Shareholder in respect of compensation arrangements as an officer and/or director of such Released Entity prior to the Closing, (iv) any Actions arising under, or in connection with, any commercial agreements as between any direct or indirect portfolio companies of the Shareholder or its Affiliates and any Released Entity, or (v) any Actions arising under, or in connection with, any agreements set forth in Schedule 1.1(c) of the Company Disclosure Letter.

3. Company Transaction Expenses. Pursuant to Section 2.3(b) of the BCA, the undersigned Shareholder hereby acknowledges and agrees that if the Adjusted Company Equity Value is less than the Company Equity Value, Apax shall pay, or cause to be paid, the full amount of such excess, if any, to the Company (“Excess Expense Payments”), in each case, on behalf of all Pre-Closing Holders. The undersigned Shareholder hereby agrees that in the event any such Excess Expense Payments are made by Apax, the undersigned Shareholder shall, upon written demand by Apax, pay such Shareholder’s Pro Rata Participation Percentage of such Excess Expense Payments; provided, however, that the requirement to pay such portion of expenses shall not arise until fifteen (15) days after the undersigned Shareholder has realized cash proceeds in excess of such Shareholder’s Pro Rata Participation Percentage of such Excess Expense Payments in connection with the sale of Subject Securities after the Closing.

4. Transfer of Subject Securities; New Subject Securities. Except as otherwise provided under the terms of the Management Investment Deed and/or Investment Deed, as applicable, the Shareholder will not sell, transfer, pledge, encumber, assign, grant an option with respect to, hedge, swap, convert or otherwise dispose of (collectively, “Transfer”), or enter into any contract, option, put, call or other arrangement or understanding with respect to the Transfer of, any of the Subject Securities or any interest therein prior to the Closing; provided, that any Transfer of Subject Securities permitted under the terms of the Management Investment Deed and/or Investment Deed, as applicable, shall be permitted only if, as a precondition to such Transfer, the transferee shall agree in writing, reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Company, to assume all of the obligations of the Shareholder under, and be bound by all of the terms of, this Agreement; provided, further, that any Transfer permitted under this Section 4 shall not relieve the Shareholder of its obligations under this Agreement.

5. Remedies.

(a) The Shareholder expressly acknowledges and agrees that (i) it is receiving good and valuable consideration sufficient to make this Agreement, and each of the terms herein, binding and fully enforceable, each of the restrictions contained in this Agreement are supported by adequate consideration and are reasonable in all respects (including with respect to subject matter, time period and geographical area) and such restrictions are necessary to protect the Company’s, Topco’s and dMY’s interest in, and value of, the Company’s business (including the goodwill inherent therein), (ii) the Shareholder (together with the other shareholders of Topco (and, following the Pre-Closing Reorganization, the Company)) is primarily responsible for the creation of such value and (iii) the Company, Topco and dMY would not have entered into the BCA and this Agreement or consummated the transactions contemplated thereby or hereby without the restrictions contained in this Agreement.

(b) The Parties acknowledge and agree that the amount of actual damages suffered by Topco, the Company and dMY in the event of an actual or threatened breach of this Agreement would be difficult or impossible to accurately calculate and there may be irreparable damages to Topco, the Company or dMY in the event of such an actual or threatened breach. Consequently, the Parties agree that in addition


to any other remedy or relief to which it may be entitled, in the event of a breach or threatened breach of this Agreement, Topco, the Company, dMY or their respective successors and assigns shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement, and to enforce specifically the performance by the Shareholder. The Shareholder hereby agrees to waive any defense in any suit that Topco, the Company or dMY has an adequate remedy at Law and hereby agrees to waive any requirement to post any bond in connection with obtaining such relief.

(c) If the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction declares that any term or provision of this Agreement is invalid or unenforceable, the Parties agree that the court making the determination of invalidity or unenforceability shall have the power to reduce the scope, duration or area of the term or provision, to delete specific words or phrases, or to replace any invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision, and this Agreement shall be enforceable as so modified after the expiration of the time within which the judgment may be appealed.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the Parties acknowledge and agree that this Section 5 is not intended to be, and is not, an admission or acknowledgement by any Person that money damages or any other monetary payment would be a sufficient remedy for a breach of this Agreement, or that the inability to obtain a monetary remedy by virtue of the limitations in this Section 5 will limit a Party’s ability to obtain injunctive relief or specific performance in accordance with this Section 5. 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 on remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other remedy.

6. Shareholder Representations and Warranties. The Shareholder represents and warrants to Topco, the Company and dMY (solely with respect to the Shareholder and not with respect to any other shareholder of Topco, the Company and dMY) that:

(d) The Restricted Shares, if any, to be issued to the Shareholder upon the consummation of the Transactions shall have the vesting and restrictions set forth in Exhibit B hereto, and effective as of the Closing, such Restricted Shares shall continue to be subject to the vesting terms and restrictions set forth in any agreement granting such Restricted Shares and/or any restricted share plan implemented at Closing (which shall in all respects be consistent with the terms set forth in Exhibit B hereto).

(ii) vote the Subject Securities (or execute and return an action by written consent), or cause the Subject Securities to be voted (or validly execute and return and cause such consent to be granted with respect to), at such meeting or written consent in favor of the BCA, and the dealing with of the Subject Securities in accordance with the BCA, and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Pre-Closing Reorganization and Redemption (collectively, the “Transactions”), including with respect to any matter in furtherance of the Transactions or by any of the Ancillary Agreements for which a vote or approval of the shareholders of Topco or the Company is required (the “Transaction Approvals”); and

(iii) vote the Subject Securities (or execute and return an action by written consent), or cause the Subject Securities to be voted (or validly execute and return and cause such consent to be granted with respect to), at such meeting or written consent against any Competing Transaction.

(b) Except as set forth under the terms of the Management Investment Deed and/or the Investment Deed, as applicable, the Shareholder has revoked or terminated any proxies, voting agreements or similar arrangements previously given or entered into with respect to the Subject Securities.

(c) The Shareholder hereby covenants and agrees that the Shareholder shall not, at any time prior to the earlier of the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 7(a) or the Closing, (i) enter into any voting agreement or voting trust with respect to any of the Subject Securities that is inconsistent with the Shareholder’s obligations pursuant to this Agreement, (ii) grant a proxy or power of attorney with respect to any of the Subject Securities that is inconsistent with the Shareholder’s obligations pursuant to this Agreement, or (iii) enter into any agreement or undertaking that is otherwise inconsistent with, or would interfere with, or prohibit or prevent it from satisfying, its obligations pursuant to this Agreement.


(d) The Shareholder hereby covenants and agrees that the Shareholder shall exercise in full all agency and powers of attorney granted to it by the other shareholders of TopCo pursuant to the Transaction Support Agreements and Additional Support Agreements entered into and delivered by such other shareholders (“Other Shareholders”), and shall use such agency and powers of attorney in full to act, to make, execute and sign, acknowledge, swear to, verify, deliver, record, file and publish, as applicable, such actions, documents, deeds, agreements or instruments as required under the laws of Guernsey and any other additional jurisdiction, and additionally, in connection with the Transaction Approvals, including, entry into and delivery of a Restricted Shares Agreement (if any) containing the restrictions set forth on Exhibit B hereto on behalf of all Other Shareholders that have delivered Transaction Support Agreements and Additional Support Agreements, and any document or instrument to implement all steps involved in the Pre-Closing Reorganization and the Redemption as set forth in the BCA); provided, however, that the power of attorney granted to the undersigned Shareholder hereunder cannot be used to take any actions pursuant to any amended provision of the BCA in the event the BCA is amended following the Signing Date, to the extent any such amendment to the BCA (i) is adverse and disproportionate to any Other Shareholder in any respect relative to the undersigned Shareholder under the terms of such amendment, or (ii) reduces the Company Equity Value. The undersigned Shareholder further covenants and agrees to exercise all such agency and powers of attorney to (a) execute and deliver the Investor Rights Agreement on behalf of such Other Shareholders that have delivered a Transaction Support Agreement or any Additional Support Agreement and (b) to determine the time when, purpose for, and manner in which any such agency and powers of attorney shall be exercised by the Shareholder, and the conditions, provisions and covenants of any instruments or documents that may be executed by the Shareholder pursuant to, and in each case, solely to the extent consistent with, such agency and powers of attorney granted by such Other Shareholders pursuant to the Transaction Support Agreements and Additional Support Agreements.

5. Remedies.

(a) The Shareholder expressly acknowledges and agrees that (i) it is receiving good and valuable consideration sufficient to make this Agreement, and each of the terms herein, binding and fully enforceable, each of the restrictions contained in this Agreement are supported by adequate consideration and are reasonable in all respects (including with respect to subject matter, time period and geographical area) and such restrictions are necessary to protect the Company’s, Topco’s and dMY’s interest in, and value of, the Company’s business (including the goodwill inherent therein), (ii) the Shareholder (together with the other shareholders of Topco (and, following the Pre-Closing Reorganization, the Company)) is primarily responsible for the creation of such value and (iii) the Company, Topco and dMY would not have entered into the BCA and this Agreement or consummated the transactions contemplated thereby or hereby without the restrictions contained in this Agreement.

(b) The Parties acknowledge and agree that the amount of actual damages suffered by Topco, the Company and dMY in the event of an actual or threatened breach of this Agreement would be difficult or impossible to accurately calculate and there may be irreparable damages to Topco, the Company or dMY in the event of such an actual or threatened breach. Consequently, the Parties agree that in addition


to any other remedy or relief to which it may be entitled, in the event of a breach or threatened breach of this Agreement, Topco, the Company, dMY or their respective successors and assigns shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement, and to enforce specifically the performance by the Shareholder.

(c) If the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction declares that any term or provision of this Agreement is invalid or unenforceable, the Parties agree that the court making the determination of invalidity or unenforceability shall have the power to reduce the scope, duration or area of the term or provision, to delete specific words or phrases, or to replace any invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision, and this Agreement shall be enforceable as so modified after the expiration of the time within which the judgment may be appealed.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the Parties acknowledge and agree that this Section 5 is not intended to be, and is not, an admission or acknowledgement by any Person that money damages or any other monetary payment would be a sufficient remedy for a breach of this Agreement, or that the inability to obtain a monetary remedy by virtue of the limitations in this Section 5 will limit a Party’s ability to obtain injunctive relief or specific performance in accordance with this Section 5. 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 on remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other remedy.

Re: Forfeiture of Founder Holders’ dMY Class A Common Stock

Ladies and Gentlemen:

Reference is made to that certain Business Combination Agreement, dated as of October 27, 2020, by and among dMY Technology Group, Inc. II, a Delaware corporation (“dMY”), Maven Topco Limited, a company incorporated under the laws of Guernsey (the “Company”), Maven Midco Limited, a private limited company incorporated under the laws of England and Wales (“MidCo”), Galileo NewCo Limited, a company incorporated under the laws of Guernsey (“NewCo”), Genius Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of NewCo (“Merger Sub”) and dMY Sponsor II, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Sponsor”) (as may be further amended, restated, amended and restated, modified, or supplemented from to time, the “Combination Agreement”). Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Combination Agreement.

In order to induce NewCo and dMY to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Combination Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Sponsor, Darla Anderson (“Anderson”), Francesca Luthi (“Luthi”), Charles E. Wert (“Wert” and together with the Sponsor, Anderson and Luthi, the “Founder Holders”), dMY and NewCo hereby agree to enter into this letter agreement (this “Letter Agreement”), and hereby agree as follows:

1. Forfeiture by Founder Holders. In connection with and effective as of immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time, up to one million thirty-five thousand (1,035,000) shares of dMY Class A Common Stock (issuable upon the conversion of Founder Shares held by the Founder Holders in accordance with the Founder Holders Consent Letter) held by, or beneficially owned by, the Founder Holders (collectively, the “Founder Holders Forfeiture Shares” and each Founder Holder’s portion of the Founder Holders Forfeiture Shares (determined on a pro rata basis), the “Applicable Founder Holders Forfeiture Shares”), shall be automatically forfeited by the Founder Holders to dMY for no consideration and automatically cancelled in accordance with Section 2. Any Founder Holders Forfeiture Shares forfeited pursuant to this Section 1 shall be cancelled for no consideration and any certificates representing such Founder Holders Forfeiture Shares so forfeited shall be cancelled; provided, that to the extent any such certificate represents shares in addition to a Founder Holders Forfeiture Share, which shares are not forfeited pursuant to the terms hereof, NewCo shall reissue such certificate with respect to the shares not so forfeited.


2. Calculation of Forfeited Founder Holders Forfeiture Shares 3. The number of Founder Holders Forfeiture Shares to be forfeited by the Founder Holders in accordance with Section 1 shall be calculated as follows:

(a) if the Minimum Cash is less than or equal to three hundred fifteen million dollars ($315,000,000), then one hundred percent (100%) of the Founder Holders Forfeiture Shares shall be automatically forfeited by the Founder Holders (on a pro rata basis in accordance with Section 1) to dMY for no consideration and canceled;

(b) if the Minimum Cash is greater than three hundred fifteen million dollars ($315,000,000), but less than four hundred fifteen million dollars ($415,000,000), then that number of Founder Holders Forfeiture Shares equal to (i) the Minimum Cash Forfeiture Percentage (as defined below) multiplied by (ii) the total number of Founder Holders Forfeiture Shares shall be automatically forfeited by the Founder Holders (on a pro rata basis in accordance with Section 1) to dMY for no consideration and canceled; and

(c) if the Minimum Cash is equal to or greater than four hundred fifteen million dollars ($415,000,000), then none of the Founder Holders Forfeiture Shares shall be forfeited by the Founder Holders.

3. Definition of “Minimum Cash Forfeiture Percentage”. For purposes of this Letter Agreement, “Minimum Cash Forfeiture Percentage” means quotient of, represented as a percentage, (i) the difference of (x) four hundred fifteen million dollars ($415,000,000) minus (y) the Minimum Cash divided by (ii) one hundred million dollars ($100,000,000); provided that in no event may the Minimum Cash Forfeiture Percentage be less than zero percent (0%) or exceed one hundred percent (100%).

4. Transfer. Prior to the final determination of the number of Founder Holders Forfeiture Shares to be forfeited in accordance with this Agreement (if any), the Founder Holders shall not, directly or indirectly, transfer or otherwise dispose of any shares of dMY Class B Common Stock, other than as may be expressly permitted by the dMY A&R Certificate of Incorporation.

5. Founder Holder Representations. Each Founder Holder (as to itself and not any other Founder Holder), severally and not jointly, hereby represents and warrants to dMY and NewCo, as of the date hereof, that such Founder Holder owns, and holds of record, all of such Founder Holder’s shares of dMY Class B Common Stock to be converted into shares of dMY Class A Common Stock in accordance with the dMY A&R Certificate of Incorporation and to represent such Founder Holder’s Applicable Founder Holder’s Forfeiture Shares, free and clear of all Liens, other than Securities Liens and such Liens and other obligations imposed by applicable securities Laws, the Combination Agreement, dMY A&R Certificate of Incorporation and dMY Bylaws.

6. Assignment. No party hereto may assign either this Letter Agreement or any of its rights, interests, or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each of the other parties hereto. Any purported assignment in violation of this Section 6 shall be void and ineffectual and shall not operate to transfer or assign any interest or title to the purported assignee. This Letter Agreement shall be binding on dMY and the Founder Holders and their respective successors and assigns.

7. Notices. Any notice, consent, or request to be given in connection with any of the terms or provisions of this Letter Agreement shall be given to dMY and NewCo in accordance with Section 8.3 of the Combination Agreement, and to the Founder Holders in accordance with the notice information set forth on such Founder Holder’s signature page hereto; in each case, unless a party hereto otherwise specifies a different address in a writing delivered to the other parties hereto.

 

2


8. Amendments. No amendment of any provision of this Letter Agreement shall be valid unless the same shall be in writing and signed by all of the parties hereto. No waiver of any provision or condition of this Letter Agreement shall be valid unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the party hereto against which such waiver is to be enforced. No waiver by any party hereto of any default, breach of representation or warranty or breach of covenant hereunder, whether intentional or not, shall be deemed to extend to any other, prior or subsequent default or breach or affect in any way any rights arising by virtue of any other, prior or subsequent such occurrence.

9. Miscellaneous. Section 8.2 (Waiver of Remedies; Survival of Representations and Warranties), Section 8.7 (Entire Agreement), Section 8.8 (Counterparts; Electronic Delivery), and Section 8.9 (Governing Law; Waiver of Jury Trial; Jurisdiction) of the Combination Agreement are hereby incorporated into this Letter Agreement, mutatis mutandis, as though set out in their entirety in this Section 9.

Exhibit 10.2

FOUNDER HOLDERS CONSENT LETTER

This FOUNDER HOLDERS CONSENT LETTER (this “Consent”) is entered into as of October 27, 2020, between Galileo NewCo Limited, a company incorporated under the laws of Guernsey (“NewCo”), Maven Topco Limited, a company incorporated under the laws of Guernsey (the “Company”), dMY Technology Group, Inc. II, a Delaware corporation (“dMY”), dMY Sponsor II, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Sponsor”) and each holder (each, a “Founder Holder” and, collectively, the “Founder Holders”) of the issued and outstanding shares of Class B common stock of dMY, par value $0.0001 per share (the “dMY Class B Common Stock”). Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Business Combination Agreement (as defined below).

WHEREAS, the Founder Holders own an aggregate of 6,900,000 shares of dMY Class B Common Stock;

WHEREAS, on August 13, 2020, Sponsor, dMY and each of the Founder Holders entered into a letter agreement in connection with the underwriting agreement entered into by dMY and attached as Exhibit A hereto (the “Original Sponsor Letter”);

WHEREAS, on October 27, 2020, dMY entered into a Business Combination Agreement (the “Business Combination Agreement”) with the Company, Maven Midco Limited, a private limited company incorporated under the laws of England and Wales, NewCo, Genius Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of NewCo (“Merger Sub”) and the Sponsor. Pursuant to the transactions contemplated by the terms of the Business Combination Agreement, and subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions set forth therein, among other things, Merger Sub will merge with and into dMY, with dMY surviving the merger and continuing as a wholly owned subsidiary of NewCo (the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement and the related ancillary agreements, the “Business Combination”);

WHEREAS, Article 4.3(b) of dMY’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Charter”) provides that, automatically on the closing of the Business Combination, each share of dMY Class B Common Stock will automatically convert on a one-for-one basis into shares of dMY Class A Common Stock; provided that, if, in connection with the consummation of the Business Combination, additional shares of dMY Class A Common Stock are issued or deemed issued in excess of the amounts sold in dMY’s initial public offering, the ratio for which the shares of dMY Class B Common Stock shall convert into shares of dMY Class A Common Stock will be adjusted so that the number of shares of dMY Class A Common Stock issuable upon conversion of all shares of dMY Class B Common Stock will equal, in the aggregate, 25% of the sum of (a) the total number of all shares of dMY Class A Common Stock issued in dMY’s initial public offering (including any shares of dMY Class A Common Stock issued pursuant to the underwriters’ over-allotment option) plus (b) the sum of (i) all shares of dMY Class A Common Stock issued or deemed issued or issuable upon conversion or exercise of any equity-linked securities or rights issued or deemed issued in connection with or in relation to the consummation of the Business Combination (including any shares of dMY Class A Common Stock issued pursuant to a forward purchase agreement), excluding any shares of dMY Class A Common Stock or equity-linked securities or rights issued, or to be issued, to any seller in the Business Combination, any private placement warrants issued to the Sponsor, or an affiliate of the Sponsor or dMY’s officers and directors upon the conversion of working capital loans made to dMY and any warrants issued pursuant to a forward purchase agreement, minus (ii) the number of shares of dMY Class A Common Stock redeemed in connection with a Business Combination, provided that such conversion of shares of dMY Class B Common Stock shall never be less than on a one-for-one basis (the “Conversion Rights Provision”);

WHEREAS, under the Charter, the Business Combination and the transactions contemplated thereby (including the PIPE Investment) will trigger the Conversion Rights Provision; and

WHEREAS, in connection with the Business Combination, the parties hereto desire that each Founder Holder irrevocably waives his, her or its rights under Article 4.3(b) of the Charter with respect to any additional shares of dMY Class A Common Stock otherwise issuable upon conversion pursuant to the Conversion Rights Provision (the “Excess Shares”).


NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual agreements herein contained, and to induce NewCo and the Company to enter into the Business Combination Agreement, the parties hereto agree as follows:

Section 1. Waiver and Conversion.

(a) Each Founder Holder hereby irrevocably and unconditionally relinquishes and waives (the “Waiver”) any and all rights, title and interest such Founder Holder has or will have under Article 4.3(b) of the Charter to receive Excess Shares upon conversion of the shares of dMY Class B Common Stock in connection with the closing of the Business Combination.

(b) Each Founder Holder hereby acknowledges and agrees that, to the extent such Founder Holder receives any Excess Shares as a result of any conversion of shares of dMY Class B Common Stock, such Founder Holder shall surrender such shares, including any certificates thereof, to NewCo for cancellation, and no consideration shall be payable to such Founder Holder in connection therewith.

(c) Each Founder Holder hereby acknowledges and agrees that, immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time, and subject to Section 1(a) above, each share of dMY Class B Common Stock that is issued and outstanding as of such time shall automatically convert in accordance with the Conversion Rights Provision into one share of dMY Class A Common Stock, and all the Founder Holders jointly and severally agree that as a result of such conversion, all outstanding shares of dMY Class B Common Stock shall collectively convert into 6,900,000 shares of dMY Class A Common Stock (subject to the provisions set forth in the Sponsor Forfeiture Agreement).

Section 2. Third Party Beneficiary. Pursuant to Section 13 of the Original Sponsor Letter, each of the parties to the Original Sponsor Letter agree that notwithstanding Section 15 of the Original Sponsor Letter, each of NewCo and the Company shall be express third party beneficiaries of such Original Sponsor Letter and may directly enforce (including by an action for specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable relief) each of the provisions set forth therein as though directly party thereto; provided that, to the extent the Business Combination Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms, NewCo and the Company shall no longer be a third party beneficiary of the Original Sponsor Letter for any purposes and shall have no right to directly enforce (including by an action for specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable relief) any of the provisions set forth in the Original Sponsor Letter in any respects.

Section 3. Successors and Assigns. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the terms of this Consent are binding on and shall inure to the benefit of such party’s beneficiaries, heirs, legatees and other statutorily designated representatives. Each Founder Holder also understands that this Consent, once executed, is irrevocable and binding, and if a Founder Holder transfers, sells or otherwise assigns any shares of dMY Class B Common Stock held by it as of the date of this Agreement, the transferee of such shares of dMY Class B Common Stock shall be bound by the terms of this Consent as if such transferee were a party hereto. Any Founder Holder that desires to transfer, sell or otherwise assign any shares of dMY Class B Common Stock shall, in addition to any other existing obligations or restrictions applicable to such proposed transfer, sale or assignment that may exist, provide the proposed transferee with a copy of this Consent and obtain from such proposed transferee a written acknowledgment that such proposed transferee acknowledges and agrees to the Waiver and the other matters set forth in this Consent.

Section 4. Authorization; Enforcement. Each of the parties hereto represents that (a) it has the requisite corporate power or legal capacity, as applicable, and authority to enter into, deliver and perform his, her or its obligations under this Consent, (b) this Consent has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by such party and (c) this Consent is enforceable against it in accordance with its terms.

Section 5. Effect of this Consent on Charter. The Charter and the Original Sponsor Letter, as affected hereby, shall remain in full force and effect. The Waiver contained in this Consent shall not constitute a waiver of any other provision of the Charter, except as expressly provided herein with respect to Article 4.3(b). This Consent constitutes the entire agreement and understanding of the parties hereto in respect of the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior understandings, agreements, or representations by or among the parties hereto, written or oral, to the extent they relate in any way to the subject matter hereof or the transactions contemplated hereby. This Consent may not be changed, amended, modified or waived (other than to correct a typographical error) as to any particular provision, except by a written instrument executed by all parties hereto.


Section 6. Counterparts. This Consent may be executed in two (2) or more counterparts (including by electronic means), all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when signed by each of the parties hereto and delivered to the other parties hereto, it being understood that all parties hereto need not sign the same counterpart.

Section 7. Governing Law; Venue; Waiver of Jury Trial.

(a) This Consent, and any claim or cause of action hereunder based upon, arising out of or related to this Consent (whether based on law, in equity, in contract, in tort or any other theory) or the negotiation, execution, performance or enforcement of this Consent, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to the principles of conflicts of law thereof.

(b) THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY SUBMIT TO THE JURISDICTION OF THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT IN THE STATE OF DELAWARE, THE DELAWARE COURT OF CHANCERY AND THE FEDERAL COURTS OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA LOCATED IN THE STATE OF DELAWARE SOLELY IN RESPECT OF THE INTERPRETATION AND ENFORCEMENT OF THE PROVISIONS OF THIS CONSENT AND THE DOCUMENTS REFERRED TO IN THIS CONSENT AND IN RESPECT OF THE BUSINESS COMBINATION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY, AND HEREBY WAIVE, AND AGREE NOT TO ASSERT, AS A DEFENSE IN ANY ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING FOR INTERPRETATION OR ENFORCEMENT HEREOF OR ANY SUCH DOCUMENT THAT IS NOT SUBJECT THERETO OR THAT SUCH ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING MAY NOT BE BROUGHT OR IS NOT MAINTAINABLE IN SAID COURTS OR THAT VENUE THEREOF MAY NOT BE APPROPRIATE OR THAT THIS CONSENT OR ANY SUCH DOCUMENT MAY NOT BE ENFORCED IN OR BY SUCH COURTS, AND THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY AGREE THAT ALL CLAIMS WITH RESPECT TO SUCH ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE HEARD AND DETERMINED BY SUCH A DELAWARE STATE OR FEDERAL COURT. THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY CONSENT TO AND GRANT ANY SUCH COURT JURISDICTION OVER THE PERSON OF SUCH PARTIES AND OVER THE SUBJECT MATTER OF SUCH DISPUTE AND AGREE THAT MAILING OF PROCESS OR OTHER PAPERS IN CONNECTION WITH SUCH ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING IN SUCH MANNER AS MAY BE PERMITTED BY LAW SHALL BE VALID AND SUFFICIENT SERVICE THEREOF.

(c) EACH PARTY HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER THIS CONSENT OR THE BUSINESS COMBINATION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE EACH SUCH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS CONSENT OR THE BUSINESS COMBINATION CONTEMPLATED BY THIS CONSENT.

(iii) vote the Subject Securities (or execute and return an action by written consent), or cause the Subject Securities to be voted (or validly execute and return and cause such consent to be granted with respect to), at such meeting or written consent against any Competing Transaction.

(b) Except as set forth under the terms of the Management Investment Deed and/or the Investment Deed, as applicable, the Shareholder has revoked or terminated any proxies, voting agreements or similar arrangements previously given or entered into with respect to the Subject Securities.

5. Remedies.

(a) The Shareholder expressly acknowledges and agrees that (i) it is receiving good and valuable consideration sufficient to make this Agreement, and each of the terms herein, binding and fully enforceable, each of the restrictions contained in this Agreement are supported by adequate consideration and are reasonable in all respects (including with respect to subject matter, time period and geographical area) and such restrictions are necessary to protect the Company’s, Topco’s and dMY’s interest in, and value of, the Company’s business (including the goodwill inherent therein), (ii) the Shareholder (together with the other shareholders of Topco (and, following the Pre-Closing Reorganization, the Company)) is primarily responsible for the creation of such value and (iii) the Company, Topco and dMY would not have entered into the BCA and this Agreement or consummated the transactions contemplated thereby or hereby without the restrictions contained in this Agreement.

(b) The Parties acknowledge and agree that the amount of actual damages suffered by Topco, the Company and dMY in the event of an actual or threatened breach of this Agreement would be difficult or impossible to accurately calculate and there may be irreparable damages to Topco, the Company or dMY in the event of such an actual or threatened breach. Consequently, the Parties agree that in addition


to any other remedy or relief to which it may be entitled, in the event of a breach or threatened breach of this Agreement, Topco, the Company, dMY or their respective successors and assigns shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement, and to enforce specifically the performance by the Shareholder.

(c) If the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction declares that any term or provision of this Agreement is invalid or unenforceable, the Parties agree that the court making the determination of invalidity or unenforceability shall have the power to reduce the scope, duration or area of the term or provision, to delete specific words or phrases, or to replace any invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision, and this Agreement shall be enforceable as so modified after the expiration of the time within which the judgment may be appealed.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the Parties acknowledge and agree that this Section 5 is not intended to be, and is not, an admission or acknowledgement by any Person that money damages or any other monetary payment would be a sufficient remedy for a breach of this Agreement, or that the inability to obtain a monetary remedy by virtue of the limitations in this Section 5 will limit a Party’s ability to obtain injunctive relief or specific performance in accordance with this Section 5. 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 on remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other remedy.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements set forth herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties agree as follows:

AGREEMENT

1. Support Agreement / Power of Attorney.

(a) The Shareholder hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that, from and after the date hereof and until the earlier of the Closing or the valid termination of the BCA (the “Effective Period”), at any meeting of the shareholders of Topco or the Company (whether annual or extraordinary and whether or not adjourned or postponed or any other meeting of Topco or the Company), however called, on any written resolution, and in any action by written consent or resolution, in each case of the shareholders of Topco or the Company (collectively, “such meeting or written consent”), the Shareholder shall, solely in its capacity as a shareholder of Topco or the Company, as applicable, do the following:

(i) when such meeting is held, appear at such meeting (in person or by proxy pursuant to Section 1(b) below) or otherwise cause the Subject Securities to be counted as present thereat for the purpose of establishing a quorum;

(ii) vote the Subject Securities (or execute and return an action by written consent), or cause the Subject Securities to be voted (or validly execute and return and cause such consent to be granted with respect to), at such meeting or written consent in favor of the BCA, and the dealing with of the Subject Securities in accordance with the BCA, and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Pre-Closing Reorganization and Redemption (collectively, the “Transactions”), including with respect to any matter in furtherance of the Transactions or by any of the Ancillary Agreements for which a vote or approval of the shareholders of Topco or the Company is required (the “Transaction Approvals”); and

(iii) vote the Subject Securities (or execute and return an action by written consent), or cause the Subject Securities to be voted (or validly execute and return and cause such consent to be granted with respect to), at such meeting or written consent against any Competing Transaction.

(b) Except as set forth under the terms of the Management Investment Deed and/or the Investment Deed, as applicable, the Shareholder has revoked or terminated any proxies, voting agreements or similar arrangements previously given or entered into with respect to the Subject Securities. The Shareholder, to the maximum extent not prohibited by applicable Law does hereby constitute, appoint and grant to Maven TopHoldings S.à.r.l. (“Apax”) full power to act without others, as its true and lawful representative, agent and attorney-in-fact, in its name, place and stead, to make, execute or sign, acknowledge, swear to, verify, deliver, record, file and/or publish, as applicable, such actions, documents, deeds, agreements or instruments as may be required under the laws of Guernsey or any other jurisdiction or otherwise in connection with the Transaction Approvals (including executing and delivering the Investor Rights Agreement on behalf of the Shareholder, any document or instrument relating to such Shareholder’s ownership of the Subject Securities, including, following the Pre-Closing Reorganization, the Restricted


Shares (if any) and the restrictions that shall apply to them, and any document or instrument to implement all steps involved in the Pre-Closing Reorganization and the Redemption as set forth in the BCA); provided, however, that the power of attorney granted to Apax hereunder shall not be used to take any actions pursuant to any amended provision of the BCA in the event the BCA is amended following the Signing Date, to the extent any such amendment to the BCA (i) is adverse and disproportionate to the undersigned Shareholder in any respect relative to Apax under the terms of such amendment, or (ii) reduces the Company Equity Value. The Shareholder hereby empowers each agent and attorney-in-fact acting pursuant hereto to determine in its sole discretion the time when, purpose for and manner in which any power herein conferred upon it shall be exercised, and the conditions, provisions and covenants of any instruments or documents that may be executed by it pursuant hereto. The agency and powers of attorney granted herein shall be unconditional and irrevocable, and shall survive the death, incompetency, incapacity, disability, insolvency or dissolution of the Shareholder (regardless of whether Apax has notice thereof). The Shareholder agrees to execute such other documents as Apax may reasonably request in order to effect the intention and purposes of the agency and power of attorney contemplated by this Section 1(b).

Pursuant to Section 2.3(b) of the BCA, the undersigned Shareholder hereby acknowledges and agrees that if the Adjusted Company Equity Value is less than the Company Equity Value, Apax shall pay, or cause to be paid, the full amount of such excess, if any, to the Company (“Excess Expense Payments”), in each case, on behalf of all Pre-Closing Holders. The undersigned Shareholder hereby agrees that in the event any such Excess Expense Payments are made by Apax, the undersigned Shareholder shall, upon written demand by Apax, pay such Shareholder’s Pro Rata Participation Percentage of such Excess Expense Payments; provided, however, that the requirement to pay such portion of expenses shall not arise until fifteen (15) days after the undersigned Shareholder has realized cash proceeds in excess of such Shareholder’s Pro Rata Participation Percentage of such Excess Expense Payments in connection with the sale of Subject Securities after the Closing.

4. Transfer of Subject Securities; New Subject Securities. Except as otherwise provided under the terms of the Management Investment Deed and/or Investment Deed, as applicable, the Shareholder will not sell, transfer, pledge, encumber, assign, grant an option with respect to, hedge, swap, convert or otherwise dispose of (collectively, “Transfer”), or enter into any contract, option, put, call or other arrangement or understanding with respect to the Transfer of, any of the Subject Securities or any interest therein prior to the Closing; provided, that any Transfer of Subject Securities permitted under the terms of the Management Investment Deed and/or Investment Deed, as applicable, shall be permitted only if, as a precondition to such Transfer, the transferee shall agree in writing, reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Company, to assume all of the obligations of the Shareholder under, and be bound by all of the terms of, this Agreement; provided, further, that any Transfer permitted under this Section 4 shall not relieve the Shareholder of its obligations under this Agreement.

5. Remedies.

(a) The Shareholder expressly acknowledges and agrees that (i) it is receiving good and valuable consideration sufficient to make this Agreement, and each of the terms herein, binding and fully enforceable, each of the restrictions contained in this Agreement are supported by adequate consideration and are reasonable in all respects (including with respect to subject matter, time period and geographical area) and such restrictions are necessary to protect the Company’s, Topco’s and dMY’s interest in, and value of, the Company’s business (including the goodwill inherent therein), (ii) the Shareholder (together with the other shareholders of Topco (and, following the Pre-Closing Reorganization, the Company)) is primarily responsible for the creation of such value and (iii) the Company, Topco and dMY would not have entered into the BCA and this Agreement or consummated the transactions contemplated thereby or hereby without the restrictions contained in this Agreement.

(b) The Parties acknowledge and agree that the amount of actual damages suffered by Topco, the Company and dMY in the event of an actual or threatened breach of this Agreement would be difficult or impossible to accurately calculate and there may be irreparable damages to Topco, the Company or dMY in the event of such an actual or threatened breach. Consequently, the Parties agree that in addition


to any other remedy or relief to which it may be entitled, in the event of a breach or threatened breach of this Agreement, Topco, the Company, dMY or their respective successors and assigns shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement, and to enforce specifically the performance by the Shareholder. The Shareholder hereby agrees to waive any defense in any suit that Topco, the Company or dMY has an adequate remedy at Law and hereby agrees to waive any requirement to post any bond in connection with obtaining such relief.

(c) If the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction declares that any term or provision of this Agreement is invalid or unenforceable, the Parties agree that the court making the determination of invalidity or unenforceability shall have the power to reduce the scope, duration or area of the term or provision, to delete specific words or phrases, or to replace any invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision, and this Agreement shall be enforceable as so modified after the expiration of the time within which the judgment may be appealed.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the Parties acknowledge and agree that this Section 5 is not intended to be, and is not, an admission or acknowledgement by any Person that money damages or any other monetary payment would be a sufficient remedy for a breach of this Agreement, or that the inability to obtain a monetary remedy by virtue of the limitations in this Section 5 will limit a Party’s ability to obtain injunctive relief or specific performance in accordance with this Section 5. 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 on remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other remedy.

EXECUTION VERSION

SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT

This SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT (this “Subscription Agreement”) is entered into on October 27, 2020, by and among Galileo NewCo Limited (the “Company”), a non-cellular company limited by shares incorporated and registered under the laws of the Island of Guernsey and a newly formed entity formed for the purpose of consummating the Transaction (as defined below), dMY Technology Group, Inc. II, a Delaware corporation (“dMY”), and the undersigned subscriber (“Subscriber”).

WHEREAS, concurrently with the execution of this Subscription Agreement, the Company is entering into a definitive agreement with Maven Topco Limited, a non-cellular company limited by shares incorporated and registered under the laws of the Island of Guernsey (“Maven”), dMY and the other parties thereto, providing for the combination of the Company and dMY (the “Transaction Agreement” and the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Agreement, the “Transaction”);

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 the Company’s ordinary shares, par value $0.01 per share (the “Ordinary Shares”), set forth on the signature page hereto (the “Subscribed Shares”) for a purchase price of $10.00 per share (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, on or about the date 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”), pursuant to which such Subscribers have agreed to purchase on the closing date of the Transaction, inclusive of the Subscribed Shares, an aggregate amount of up to 33,000,000 Ordinary Shares, at the Per Share Price (the shares of the Other Subscribers, the “Other Subscribed Shares” and together with the Subscribed Shares, the “Collective Subscribed Shares”).

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:

Section 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”).

Section 2. Closing.

(a) The consummation of the Subscription contemplated hereby (the “Closing”) shall occur on the closing date of the Transaction (the “Closing Date”), immediately prior to or substantially concurrently with the consummation of the Transaction.

 

1


(b) At least five (5) Business Days 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 two (2) 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, and 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 Subscriber Shares are to be issued and a duly completed and executed Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 or appropriate Form W-8. 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 this Subscription Agreement or applicable 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, evidence from the Company’s transfer agent of the issuance to Subscriber of the Subscribed Shares on and as of the Closing Date. In the event that (i) the Company does not accept the subscription or (ii) the consummation of the Transaction does not occur within five (5) Business Days after the anticipated Closing Date specified in the Closing Notice, unless otherwise agreed to in writing by dMY, the Company and the Subscriber, the Company shall promptly (but in no event later than six (6) Business Days after the anticipated Closing Date specified in the Closing Notice) 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 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 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 6 herein, Subscriber shall remain obligated (A) to redeliver funds to the Company in escrow 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 any other day on which commercial banks are required or authorized to close in the State of New York, Guernsey or the United Kingdom.

(c) The Closing shall be subject to the satisfaction, or valid waiver by each of the parties hereto, of the conditions that, on the Closing Date:

 

  (i)

no suspension of the qualification of the Subscribed Shares for offering or sale or trading in any jurisdiction, or initiation or threatening of any proceedings for any of such purposes, shall have occurred;

 

  (ii)

all conditions precedent to the closing of the Transaction set forth in the Transaction Agreement, including all necessary approvals of dMY’s stockholders and regulatory approvals, if any, shall have been satisfied (as determined by the parties to the Transaction Agreement) or waived (other than those conditions which, by their nature, are to be satisfied at the closing of the Transaction pursuant to the Transaction Agreement), and the closing of the Transaction shall be scheduled to occur substantially concurrently with or immediately following the Closing; and

 

2


  (iii)

no governmental authority shall have enacted, issued, promulgated, enforced or entered any judgment, order, law, rule or regulation which is then in effect and has the effect of making the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby illegal or otherwise restraining or prohibiting consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

(d) The obligation of the Company to consummate the Closing shall be subject to the satisfaction or valid waiver by the Company 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 and correct in all respects) at and as of the Closing 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.

(e) The obligation of Subscriber to consummate the Closing shall be subject to the satisfaction or valid waiver by Subscriber of the additional conditions that, on the Closing Date:

 

  (i)

all representations and warranties of the Company 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 Company Material Adverse Effect (as defined below), which representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all respects) at and as of the Closing Date;

 

  (ii)

the Company 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; and

 

  (iii)

no amendment, modification or waiver of the Transaction Agreement shall have occurred that would reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect the economic benefits that Subscriber would reasonably expect to receive under this Subscription Agreement.

Section 3. Company Representations and Warranties. The Company represents and warrants to Subscriber that:

(a) The Company (i) is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation, (ii) has the requisite power and authority to own, lease and operate its properties, to carry on its business as it is now being conducted and to enter into and perform its obligations under this Subscription Agreement, and (iii) is duly licensed or qualified to conduct its business and, if applicable, is in good standing under the laws of each jurisdiction (other than its jurisdiction of incorporation) in which the conduct of its business or the ownership of its properties or assets requires such license or qualification, except, with respect to the foregoing clause (iii), where the failure to be in good standing would not reasonably be expected to have a Company Material Adverse Effect. For purposes of this Subscription Agreement, a “Company Material Adverse Effect” means an event, change, development, occurrence, condition or effect with respect to the Company and its subsidiaries, taken together as a whole (on a consolidated basis), that, individually or in the aggregate, would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s ability to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, including the issuance and sale of the Subscribed Shares.

(b) As of the Closing Date, the Subscribed Shares will be duly authorized and, when issued and delivered to Subscriber against full payment therefor in accordance with the terms of this Subscription Agreement, will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and will not have been issued in violation of any preemptive rights created under the Company’s organizational documents (as adopted on or prior to the Closing Date) or the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation.

(c) This Subscription Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Company, and assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery of the same by Subscriber, this Subscription Agreement shall constitute the valid and legally binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws affecting creditors generally and by the availability of equitable remedies.

(d) Assuming the accuracy of the representations and warranties of Subscriber, the execution and delivery of this Subscription Agreement, the issuance and sale of the Subscribed Shares and the compliance by the Company with all of the provisions of this Subscription Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein will not conflict with or result in a breach or violation of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any of the property or assets of the Company pursuant to the terms of (i) any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement, lease, license or other agreement or instrument to which the Company is a party or by which the Company is bound or to which any of the property or assets of the Company is subject; (ii) the organizational documents of the Company; or (iii) any statute or any judgment, order, rule or regulation of any court or governmental agency or body, domestic or foreign, having jurisdiction over the Company or any of its properties that, in the case of clauses (i) and (iii), would reasonably be expected to have a Company Material Adverse Effect.

(e) Assuming the accuracy of the representations and warranties of Subscriber, the Company is not required to obtain any consent, waiver, authorization or order of, give any notice to, or make any filing or registration with, any court or other federal, state, local or other governmental authority, self-regulatory organization (including New York Stock Exchange (the

(c) The execution and delivery of this Subscription Agreement, the purchase of the Subscribed Shares and the compliance by Subscriber with all of the provisions of this Subscription Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein will not conflict with or result in a breach or violation of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any of the property or assets of Subscriber pursuant to the terms of (i) any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement, lease, license or other agreement or instrument to which Subscriber is a party or by which Subscriber is bound or to which any of the property or assets of Subscriber is subject; (ii) the organizational documents of Subscriber; or (iii) any statute or any judgment, order, rule or regulation of any court or governmental agency or body, domestic or foreign, having jurisdiction over Subscriber or any of its properties that, in the case of clauses (i) and (iii), would reasonably be expected to have a Subscriber Material Adverse Effect. For purposes of this Subscription Agreement, a “Subscriber Material Adverse Effect” means an event, change, development, occurrence, condition or effect with respect to Subscriber that would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on Subscriber’s ability to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, including the purchase of the Subscribed Shares.

(d) Subscriber (i) is a “qualified institutional buyer” (as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act) or an “accredited investor” (within the meaning of Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) under the Securities Act) satisfying the applicable requirements set forth on Annex A, (ii) is acquiring the Subscribed Shares only for its own account and not for the account of others, or if Subscriber is subscribing for the Subscribed Shares as a fiduciary or agent for one or more investor accounts, each owner of such account is a qualified institutional buyer and Subscriber has full investment discretion with respect to each such account, and the full power and authority to make the acknowledgements, representations and agreements herein on behalf of each owner of each such account, and (iii) is not acquiring the Subscribed Shares with a view to, or for offer or sale in connection with, any distribution thereof in violation of the Securities Act (and has provided the Company with the requested information on Annex A following the signature page hereto).

(e) Subscriber understands that the Subscribed Shares are being offered in a transaction not involving any public offering within the meaning of the Securities Act and that the Subscribed Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act. Subscriber understands that the Subscribed Shares may not be offered, resold, transferred, pledged or otherwise disposed of by Subscriber absent an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, except (i) to the Company or a subsidiary thereof, or (ii) pursuant to an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, and, in each of cases (i) and (ii), in accordance with any applicable securities laws of the applicable states and other jurisdictions of the United States, and as a result of these transfer restrictions, Subscriber may not be able to readily resell the Subscribed Shares and may be required to bear the financial risk of an investment in the Subscribed Shares for an indefinite period of time. Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that the Subscribed Shares will not be eligible for offer, resale, transfer, pledge or disposition pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act until at least one year from the Closing Date. Subscriber understands that it has been advised to consult legal counsel prior to making any offer, resale, pledge or transfer of any of the Subscribed Shares.

(f) Subscriber understands and agrees that Subscriber is purchasing the Subscribed Shares directly from the Company. Subscriber further acknowledges that there have not been, and Subscriber hereby agrees that it is not relying on, any representations, warranties, covenants or agreements made to Subscriber by the Company, Maven, dMY, the Placement Agents, any of their respective affiliates or any control persons, officers, directors, employees, partners, agents or representatives, any other party to the Transaction or any other person or entity, expressly or by implication, other than those representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of the Company set forth in this Subscription Agreement. Subscriber acknowledges that certain information provided by the Company was based on projections, and such projections were prepared based on assumptions and estimates that are inherently uncertain and are subject to a wide variety of significant business, economic and competitive risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in the projections.

(g) In making its decision to purchase the Subscribed Shares, Subscriber has relied solely upon independent investigation made by Subscriber. Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that Subscriber has received such information as Subscriber deems necessary in order to make an investment decision with respect to the Subscribed Shares, including with respect to the Company and its subsidiaries, including Maven (collectively, the “Acquired Companies”), dMY and the Transaction. Subscriber represents and agrees that Subscriber and Subscriber’s professional advisor(s), if any, have had the full opportunity to ask such questions, receive such answers and obtain such information as Subscriber and such undersigned’s professional advisor(s), if any, have deemed necessary to make an investment decision with respect to the Subscribed Shares. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Subscriber acknowledges that it has reviewed dMY’s filings with the Commission. Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that none of the Placement Agents, or any affiliate of the Placement Agents, has provided Subscriber with any information or advice with respect to the Subscribed Shares nor is such information or advice necessary or desired. None of the Placement Agents or any of their respective affiliates has made or makes any representation as to dMY or the Acquired Companies or the quality or value of the Subscribed

 

7


Shares and the Placement Agents and any of their respective affiliates may have acquired non-public information with respect to dMY or the Acquired Companies which Subscriber agrees need not be provided to it. In connection with the issuance of the Subscribed Shares to Subscriber, none of the Placement Agents or any of their respective affiliates has acted as a financial advisor or fiduciary to Subscriber. The Subscriber agrees that none of the Placement Agents shall be liable to any Subscriber for any action heretofore or hereafter taken or omitted to be taken by any of them in connection with the Purchaser’s purchase of the Subscribed Shares.

(h) Subscriber became aware of this offering of the Subscribed Shares solely by means of direct contact between Subscriber and the Company, Maven and/or dMY, or their respective representatives or affiliates, or by means of contact from the Placement Agents and the Subscribed Shares were offered to Subscriber solely by direct contact between Subscriber and the Company, Maven and/or dMY, or their respective affiliates. Subscriber did not become aware of this offering of the Subscribed Shares, nor were the Subscribed Shares offered to Subscriber, by any other means. Subscriber acknowledges that the Company represents and warrants that the Subscribed Shares (i) were not offered by any form of general solicitation or general advertising and (ii) are not being offered in a manner involving a public offering under, or in a distribution in violation of, the Securities Act, or any state securities laws.

(i) Subscriber acknowledges that it is aware that there are substantial risks incident to the purchase and ownership of the Subscribed Shares. Subscriber has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the Subscribed Shares, and Subscriber has had an opportunity to seek, and has sought, such accounting, legal, business and tax advice as Subscriber has considered necessary to make an informed investment decision.

(j) 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 risk of a total loss of Subscriber’s investment in the Company. Subscriber acknowledges specifically that a possibility of total loss exists.

(k) 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.

(l) Subscriber is not, and is not owned or controlled by or acting on behalf of (in connection with this Transaction), a Sanctioned Person. Subscriber is not a non-U.S. shell bank or providing banking services to a non-U.S. shell bank. Subscriber represents that if it is a financial institution subject to the Bank Secrecy Act (31 U.S.C. Section 5311 et seq.), as amended by the USA PATRIOT Act of 2001 and its implementing regulations (collectively, the “BSA/PATRIOT Act”), that Subscriber maintains policies and procedures reasonably designed to comply with applicable obligations under the BSA/PATRIOT Act. Subscriber also represents that, to the extent required by applicable law, it maintains, either directly or through the use of a third-party administrator, policies and procedures reasonably designed for the screening of any investors against Sanctions-related lists of blocked or restricted persons. Subscriber further represents and warrants that the funds held by Subscriber and used to purchase the Subscribed Shares are derived

 

8


from lawful activities. For purposes of this Agreement, “Sanctioned Person” means at any time any person or entity: (a) listed on any Sanctions-related list of designated or blocked or restricted persons; (b) that is a national of, the government of, or any agency or instrumentality of the government of, or resident in, or organized under the laws of, a country or territory that is the target of comprehensive Sanctions from time to time (as of the date of this Agreement, Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Syria, and the Crimea region); or (c) owned or controlled by or acting on behalf of any of the foregoing. “Sanctions” means those trade, economic and financial sanctions laws, regulations, embargoes, and restrictive measures (in each case having the force of law) administered, enacted or enforced from time to time by (a) the United States (including without limitation the U.S. Department of the Treasury, Office of Foreign Assets Control, the U.S. Department of State, and the U.S. Department of Commerce), (b) the European Union and enforced by its member states, (c) the United Nations, (d) Her Majesty’s Treasury and (e) the States of Guernsey.

(m) Subscriber is not currently (and at all times through Closing will refrain from being or becoming) a member of a “group” (within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) or Section 14(d)(2) of the Exchange Act or any successor provision) acting for the purpose of acquiring, holding, voting or disposing of equity securities of the Company, Maven or dMY (within the meaning of Rule 13d-5(b)(1) under the Exchange Act).

(n) No foreign person (as defined in 31 C.F.R. Part 800.224) in which the national or subnational governments of a single foreign state have a substantial interest (as defined in 31 C.F.R. Part 800.244) will acquire a substantial interest in the Company as a result of the purchase and sale of Subscribed Shares hereunder such that a declaration to the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States would be mandatory under 31 C.F.R. Part 800.401, and no foreign person will have control (as defined in 31 C.F.R. Part 800.208) over the Company from and after the Closing as a result of the purchase and sale of Subscribed Shares hereunder.

(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 any of its respective 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 broker or finder is entitled to any brokerage or finder’s fee or commission solely in connection with the sale of the Subscribed Shares to Subscriber.

Section 5. Registration of Subscribed Shares.

(a) The Company agrees that the Company will file with the Commission (at the Company’s sole cost and expense) a registration statement registering the resale of the Subscribed Shares (the “Registration Statement”), and the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to have the Registration Statement declared effective no later than sixty (60) calendar days following the Closing Date (the “Effectiveness Deadline”), provided, that the Effectiveness Deadline shall be extended to ninety (90) calendar days after the Closing Date if the Registration Statement is reviewed by, and comments thereto are provided from, the Commission; 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 undersigned for review (but not comment) 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 of 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 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 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 commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Registration Statement to remain effective with respect to Subscriber until the earlier of (i) two years from the issuance of the Subscribed Shares, (ii) the date on which all of the Subscribed Shares shall have been sold, or (iii) on the first date on which the undersigned can sell all of its Subscribed Shares (or shares received in exchange therefor) under Rule 144 of the Securities Act without limitation as to the manner of sale or the amount of such securities that may be sold. If requested by the Subscriber, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to (i) cause the removal of the restrictive legends from any Subscribed Shares being sold under the Registration Statement or pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act (“Rule 144”) at the time of sale of such Registrable Securities and, at the request of a Holder, cause the removal of all restrictive legends from any Registrable Securities held by such Holder that may be sold by such Holder without restriction under Rule 144, including without limitation, any volume and manner of sale restrictions, and (ii) cause its legal counsel to deliver an opinion, if necessary, to the transfer agent in connection with the instruction under subclause (i) to the effect that the removal of such

 

10


restrictive legends in such circumstances may be effected under the Securities Act, in each case upon the receipt of customary representations and other documentation, if any, from the Holder as reasonably requested by the Company, its counsel or the transfer agent, establishing that restrictive legends are no longer required. The Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to file all reports, and provide all customary and reasonable cooperation, necessary to enable Holder to resell Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement or Rule 144, as applicable, qualify the Registrable Securities for listing on the applicable stock exchange on which the Company’s Ordinary Shares are then listed and update or amend the Registration Statement as necessary to include Registrable Securities. “Registrable Securities” shall mean, as of any date of determination, the Subscribed Shares and any other equity security issued or issuable with respect to the Subscribed Shares by way of share split, dividend, distribution, recapitalization, merger, exchange, replacement or similar event, provided, however, that such securities shall cease to be Registrable Securities at the earliest of (A) three (3) years, (B) the date all Subscribed Shares held by a Holder may be sold by such Holder without volume or manner of sale limitations pursuant to Rule 144 and without the requirement for the Company to be in compliance with the current public information required under Rule 144(c)(1) (or Rule 144(i)(2), if applicable), (C) the date on which such securities have actually been sold by a Holder, or (D) when such securities shall have ceased to be outstanding. “Holder” shall mean the Subscriber or any affiliate of the Subscriber to which the rights under this Section 5 shall have been assigned. The undersigned agrees to disclose its beneficial ownership, as determined in accordance with Rule 13d-3 of the Exchange Act, of Subscribed Shares to the Company (or its successor) 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 of a selling stockholder in similar situations, including providing that the Company shall be entitled to postpone and suspend the effectiveness or use of the Registration Statement during any customary blackout or similar period or as permitted hereunder. 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. Subscriber shall not be entitled to use the Registration Statement for an underwritten offering of Subscribed Shares. 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 or effectiveness 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 such filing or use could materially affect a bona fide business or financing transaction of the Company or would require premature disclosure of information that could materially adversely affect the Company (each such circumstance, a “Suspension Event”); provided, that, (w) the Company shall not so delay filing or so suspend the use of the Registration Statement for a period of more than sixty (60) consecutive days or more than two (2) times in any three hundred sixty (360) day period and (x) the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to make such registration statement available for the sale by the undersigned of such securities as soon as practicable thereafter.

 

11


(b) Upon receipt of any written notice from the Company (which notice shall not contain any material non-public information regarding 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, the undersigned 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 the undersigned 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) it will maintain the confidentiality of any information included in such written notice delivered by the Company unless otherwise required by law, subpoena or regulatory request or requirement. If so directed by the Company, the undersigned will deliver to the Company or, in the undersigned’s sole discretion destroy, all copies of the prospectus covering the Subscribed Shares in the undersigned’s possession; provided, however, that this obligation to deliver or destroy all copies of the prospectus covering the Subscribed Shares shall not apply (w) to the extent the undersigned is required to retain a copy of such prospectus (A) in order to comply with applicable legal, regulatory, self-regulatory or professional requirements or (B) in accordance with a bona fide pre-existing document retention policy or (x) to copies stored electronically on archival servers as a result of automatic data back-up.

Section 6. 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 earlier to occur of (a) such date and time as the Transaction Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms, (b) upon the mutual written agreement of the parties hereto 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) June 11, 2021, if the Closing has not occurred by such date other than as a result of a breach of Subscriber’s obligations hereunder; 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 losses, liabilities or damages arising from such breach. The Company shall notify Subscriber of the termination of the Transaction Agreement promptly after the termination thereof.

Section 7. Trust Account Waiver. Subscriber hereby acknowledges that dMY 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 dMY’s public stockholders and certain other parties (including the underwriters of the IPO). For and in consideration of the Company entering into this Subscription Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Subscriber hereby

 

12


(a) agrees that it does not now and shall not at any time hereafter have any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any assets held in the Trust Account, and shall not make any claim against the Trust Account, regardless of whether such claim arises as a result of, in connection with or relating in any way to this Subscription Agreement 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 “Released Claims”), (b) irrevocably waives any Released Claims that it may have against the Trust Account now or in the future as a result of, or arising out of, any negotiations, contracts or agreements with the Company, and (c) will not seek recourse against the Trust Account for any reason whatsoever; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 7 shall be deemed to limit any Subscriber’s right to distributions from the Trust Account in accordance with dMY’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation in respect of shares of Class A Common Stock of dMY acquired by any means other than pursuant to this Subscription Agreement.

Section 8. Indemnity.

(a) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless, to the extent permitted by law, the Subscriber, its directors, and officers, employees, and agents, and each person who controls the Subscriber (within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act) and each affiliate of the Subscriber (within the meaning of Rule 405 under the Securities Act) from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, any reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred in connection with defending or investigating any such action or claim) caused by any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in any Registration Statement, prospectus included in any Registration Statement 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 furnished in writing to the Company by or on behalf of the Subscriber expressly for use therein.

(b) The Subscriber agrees, severally and not jointly with any person that is a party to the Other Subscription Agreements, to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, officers, employees and agents, and each person who controls the Company (within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act) and each affiliate of the Company against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred in connection with defending or investigating any such action or claim) resulting from any untrue statement of material fact contained in the 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 or on behalf of the Subscriber expressly for use therein. In no event shall the liability of the Subscriber be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by the Subscriber upon the sale of the Subscribed Shares purchased pursuant to this Subscription Agreement giving rise to such indemnification obligation.

 

13


(c) Any person entitled to indemnification herein shall (1) 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 prejudiced the indemnifying party) and (2) 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, 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, 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.

(d) 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 or any officer, director, employee, agent, affiliate or controlling person of such indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of the Subscribed Shares purchased pursuant to this Subscription Agreement.

(e) If the indemnification provided under this Section 8 from the indemnifying party is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses referred to herein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying the indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact, was made by, or relates to information supplied by or on behalf of, 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.

(b) Subscriber acknowledges that the Company, Maven, dMY, the Placement Agents and others will rely on the acknowledgments, understandings, agreements, representations and warranties of Subscriber contained in this Subscription Agreement; provided, however, that the foregoing clause of this Section 9(b) shall not give dMY or the Placement Agents any rights other than those expressly set forth herein and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing and for the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall dMY be entitled to rely on any of the representations and warranties of the Company set forth in this Subscription Agreement. Prior to the Closing, Subscriber agrees to promptly notify the Company, Maven, dMY and the Placement Agents if it becomes aware that any of the acknowledgments, understandings, agreements, representations and warranties of Subscriber set forth herein are no longer accurate in all material respects. Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that each purchase by Subscriber of Subscribed Shares from the Company will constitute a reaffirmation of the acknowledgments, understandings, agreements, representations and warranties herein (as modified by any such notice) by Subscriber as of the time of such purchase. The Company acknowledges that Subscriber will rely on the acknowledgments, understandings, agreements, representations and warranties contained in this Subscription Agreement. Prior to the Closing, the Company agrees to promptly notify Subscriber if it becomes aware that any of the acknowledgments, understandings, agreements, representations and warranties of the Company set forth herein are no longer accurate in all material respects.

15


hereunder may be transferred or assigned (provided, that, for the avoidance of doubt, the Company may transfer the Subscription Agreement and its rights hereunder solely in connection with the consummation of the Transaction and exclusively to another entity under the control of, or under common control with, the Company). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Subscriber may assign its rights and obligations under this Subscription Agreement to one or more of its affiliates (including other investment funds or accounts managed or advised by the investment manager who acts on behalf of Subscriber) or, with the Company’s prior written consent, to another person, provided that no such assignment shall relieve Subscriber of its obligations hereunder if any such assignee fails to perform such obligations.

(f) All the agreements, representations and warranties made by each party hereto in this Subscription Agreement shall survive the Closing. For the avoidance of doubt, if for any reason the Closing does not occur prior to the consummation of the Transaction, all representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of the parties hereunder shall survive the consummation of the Transaction and remain in full force and effect.

(g) The Company may request from Subscriber such additional information as the Company may reasonably deem necessary to evaluate the eligibility of Subscriber to acquire the Subscribed Shares and to register the Subscribed Shares for resale, and Subscriber shall provide such information as may be reasonably requested. Subscriber acknowledges that the Company and/or dMY may file a copy of this Subscription Agreement with the Commission as an exhibit to a periodic report of dMY and/or the Company or a registration statement of dMY and/or the Company.

(h) This Subscription Agreement may not be amended, modified or waived except by an instrument in writing, signed by each of the parties hereto.

(i) This Subscription Agreement constitutes the entire agreement, and supersedes all other prior agreements, understandings, representations and warranties, both written and oral, among the parties, with respect to the subject matter hereof.

(j) Except as otherwise provided herein, this Subscription Agreement is intended for the benefit of the parties hereto and their heirs, executors, administrators, successors, legal representatives, and permitted assigns and is not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any other person. Except as set forth in Section 9(b), Section 9(c), Section 9(h) and this Section 9(j) with respect to the persons specifically referenced therein, this Subscription Agreement shall not confer any rights or remedies upon any person other than the parties hereto, and their respective successor and assigns, and the parties hereto acknowledge that such persons so referenced are third party beneficiaries of this Subscription Agreement for the purposes of, and to the extent of, the rights granted to them, if any, pursuant to the applicable provisions.

(k) The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that (i) this Subscription Agreement is being entered into in order to induce the Company to execute and deliver the Transaction Agreement and (ii) irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Subscription Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached and that money or other legal remedies would not be an adequate remedy for such damage. It is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to equitable relief, including

 

16


in the form of an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of this Subscription Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Subscription Agreement, this being in addition to any other remedy to which such party is entitled at law, in equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the Company and dMY shall be entitled to specifically enforce Subscriber’s obligations to fund the Subscription Amount and the provisions of the Subscription Agreement, in each case, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein. The parties hereto further acknowledge and agree: (x) to waive any requirement for the security or posting of any bond in connection with any such equitable remedy; (y) not to assert that a remedy of specific enforcement pursuant to this Section 9(k) is unenforceable, invalid, contrary to applicable law or inequitable for any reason; and (z) to waive any defenses in any action for specific performance, including the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate. In connection with any proceeding for which the Company or dMY is being granted an award of money damages, the Subscriber agrees that such damages, to the extent payable by such party, shall include, without limitation, damages related to the consideration that is or was to be paid to the Company or dMY under the Transaction Agreement and/or this Subscription Agreement and such damages are not limited to an award of out-of-pocket fees and expenses related to the Transaction Agreement and this Subscription Agreement.

(l) In any dispute arising out of or related to this Subscription Agreement, or any other agreement, document, instrument or certificate contemplated hereby, or any transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, the applicable adjudicating body shall award to the prevailing party, if any, the costs and attorneys’ fees reasonably incurred by the prevailing party in connection with the dispute and the enforcement of its rights under this Subscription Agreement or any other agreement, document, instrument or certificate contemplated hereby and, if the adjudicating body determines a party to be the prevailing party under circumstances where the prevailing party won on some but not all of the claims and counterclaims, the adjudicating body may award the prevailing party an appropriate percentage of the costs and attorneys’ fees reasonably incurred by the prevailing party in connection with the adjudication and the enforcement of its rights under this Subscription Agreement or any other agreement, document, instrument or certificate contemplated hereby or thereby.

(m) If any provision of this Subscription Agreement shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality or enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Subscription Agreement shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and shall continue in full force and effect.

(n) No failure or delay by a party hereto in exercising any right, power or remedy under this Subscription Agreement, and no course of dealing between the parties hereto, shall operate as a waiver of any such right, power or remedy of such party. No single or partial exercise of any right, power or remedy under this Subscription Agreement by a party hereto, nor any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce any such right, power or remedy, shall preclude such party from any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy hereunder. The election of any remedy by a party hereto shall not constitute a waiver of the right of such party to pursue other available remedies. No notice to or demand on a party not expressly required under this Subscription Agreement shall entitle the party receiving such notice or demand to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of the party giving such notice or demand to any other or further action in any circumstances without such notice or demand.

 

17


(o) This Subscription Agreement may be executed and delivered in one or more counterparts (including by facsimile or electronic mail or in .pdf) and by different parties in separate counterparts, with the same effect as if all parties hereto had signed the same document. All counterparts so executed and delivered shall be construed together and shall constitute one and the same agreement.

(p) This Subscription Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, without regard to the principles of conflicts of laws that would otherwise require the application of the law of any other state.

(q) EACH PARTY AND ANY PERSON ASSERTING RIGHTS AS A THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARY HEREBY WAIVES ITS RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OR RELATED TO THIS SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR OTHER LITIGATION OF ANY TYPE BROUGHT BY ANY PARTY AGAINST ANY OTHER PARTY OR ANY AFFILIATE OF ANY OTHER SUCH PARTY, WHETHER WITH RESPECT TO CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS OR OTHERWISE. THE PARTIES AGREE THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE TRIED BY A COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY. WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, THE PARTIES FURTHER AGREE THAT THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IS WAIVED BY OPERATION OF THIS SECTION AS TO ANY ACTION, COUNTERCLAIM OR OTHER PROCEEDING WHICH SEEKS, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, TO CHALLENGE THE VALIDITY OR ENFORCEABILITY OF THIS SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT OR ANY PROVISION HEREOF. THIS WAIVER SHALL APPLY TO ANY SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENTS, RENEWALS, SUPPLEMENTS OR MODIFICATIONS TO THIS SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT.

(r) The parties agree that all disputes, legal actions, suits and proceedings arising out of or relating to this Subscription Agreement must be brought exclusively in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, the Supreme Court of the State of New York and the federal courts of the United States of America located in the State of New York (collectively the “Designated Courts”). Each party hereby consents and submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Designated Courts. No legal action, suit or proceeding with respect to this Subscription Agreement may be brought in any other forum. Each party hereby irrevocably waives all claims of immunity from jurisdiction, and any objection which such party may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding in any Designated Court, including any right to object on the basis that any dispute, action, suit or proceeding brought in the Designated Courts has been brought in an improper or inconvenient forum or venue. Each of the parties also agrees that delivery of any process, summons, notice or document to a party hereof in compliance with Section 9(a) of this Subscription Agreement shall be effective service of process for any action, suit or proceeding in a Designated Court with respect to any matters to which the parties have submitted to jurisdiction as set forth above.

 

18


(s) This Subscription Agreement may only be enforced against, and any claim, action, suit or other legal proceeding based upon, arising out of, or related to this Subscription Agreement, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Subscription Agreement, may only be brought against the entities that are expressly named as parties or third party beneficiaries hereto and then only with respect to the specific obligations set forth herein with respect to such party or third party beneficiary. No past, present or future director, officer, employee, incorporator, manager, member, partner, stockholder, affiliate, agent, attorney or other representative of any party hereto or of any affiliate of any party hereto, or any of their successors or permitted assigns, shall have any liability for any obligations or liabilities of any party hereto under this Subscription Agreement or for any claim, action, suit or other legal proceeding based on, in respect of or by reason of the transactions contemplated hereby.

(t) Subscriber hereby consents to the publication and disclosure in any press release issued by the Company, Maven or dMY, any Form 8-K or Form 6-K filed by the Company or dMY with the Commission in connection with the execution and delivery of the Transaction Agreement or the transactions contemplated thereby and the Proxy Statement (as defined in the Transaction Agreement) (and, as and to the extent otherwise required by the federal securities laws, exchange rules, the Commission or any other securities authorities or any rules and regulations promulgated thereby, any other documents or communications provided by the Company, Maven or dMY to any governmental entity or to any securityholders of the Company) of Subscriber’s identity and beneficial ownership of the Subscribed Shares and the nature of Subscriber’s commitments, arrangements and understandings under and relating to this Agreement and, if deemed appropriate by the Company, Maven or dMY, a copy of this Agreement, all solely to the extent required by applicable law or any regulation or stock exchange listing requirement. Subscriber will promptly provide any information reasonably requested by the Company or dMY for any regulatory application or filing made or approval sought in connection with the Transaction (including filings with the Commission). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall provide to Subscriber a copy of any proposed disclosure relating to the Subscriber in accordance with the provisions of this Section 9(t) in advance of any publication thereof and shall include such revisions to such proposed disclosure as Subscriber shall reasonably request.

(u) dMY shall, by 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the first (1st) Business Day immediately following the date of this Subscription Agreement, issue one or more press releases or file with the Commission a Current Report on Form 8-K (collectively, the “Disclosure Document”) disclosing all material terms of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the Other Subscription Agreements, the Transaction and any other material, nonpublic information that the Company has provided to Subscriber at any time prior to the filing of the Disclosure Document. Upon the issuance of the Disclosure Document, to dMY’s knowledge, Subscriber shall not be in possession of any material, non-public information received from dMY or any of its officers, directors, or employees or agents, and Subscriber shall no longer be subject to any confidentiality or similar obligations under any current agreement, whether written or oral with Company, the Placement Agents, dMY or any of their affiliates in connection with the Transaction. Notwithstanding anything in this Subscription Agreement to the contrary, dMY (i) shall not publicly disclose the name of Subscriber or any of its affiliates or advisers, or include the name of Subscriber or any of its affiliates or advisers in any press release, without the prior written consent of Subscriber and (ii) shall not publicly disclose the name of the Subscriber or any of its affiliates or advisers, or include the name of the Subscriber or any of its affiliates or advisers in any filing

 

19


with the Commission or any regulatory agency or trading market, without the prior written consent of Subscriber, except (A) as required by the federal securities law and (B) to the extent such disclosure is required by law, at the request of the staff of the Commission or regulatory agency or under the regulations of NYSE. Subscriber will promptly provide any information reasonably requested by dMY, the Company or Maven for any regulatory application or filing made or approval sought in connection with the Transaction (including filings with the Commission).

(v) The obligations of Subscriber under this Subscription Agreement are several and not joint with the obligations of any Other Subscriber or any other investor under the Other Subscription Agreements, and Subscriber shall not be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any Other Subscriber under this Subscription Agreement or any Other Subscriber or other investor under the Other Subscription Agreements. The decision of Subscriber to purchase Subscribed Shares pursuant to this Subscription Agreement has been made by Subscriber independently of any Other Subscriber or any other investor and independently of any information, materials, statements or opinions as to the business, affairs, operations, assets, properties, liabilities, results of operations, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of the Company, Maven, dMY or any of their respective subsidiaries which may have been made or given by any Other Subscriber or investor or by any agent or employee of any Other Subscriber or investor, and neither Subscriber nor any of its agents or employees shall have any liability to any Other Subscriber or investor (or any other person) relating to or arising from any such information, materials, statements or opinions. Nothing contained herein or in any Other Subscription Agreement, and no action taken by Subscriber or investor pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute Subscriber and Other Subscribers or other investors as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that Subscriber and Other Subscribers or other investors are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Subscription Agreement and the Other Subscription Agreements. Subscriber acknowledges that no Other Subscriber has acted as agent for Subscriber in connection with making its investment hereunder and no Other Subscriber will be acting as agent of Subscriber in connection with monitoring its investment in the Subscribed Shares or enforcing its rights under this Subscription Agreement. Subscriber shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including without limitation the rights arising out of this Subscription Agreement, and it shall not be necessary for any Other Subscriber or investor to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.
